Throughout the centuries, great philosophers have attempted to explore the riddle, involving human existence, but without meaningful success. Humans continue to struggle with the question of whether a man is different from other animal species, or not. What could have been the purpose of Man on Earth, if different from…
Why Abraham is described as Father, rather than Adam
“The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham,…
G40—the noblest idea that went begging
Before the 2017 coup, ZANU PF had become divided into two factions. Namely, Lacoste and G40. Ordinary people were treated to some counter-accusations—each group accusing the other of trying to stage a coup against Robert Mugabe. It later turned out that, indeed, Lacoste had all along sought to stage a…
Judiciary is junior to media
The role of media is simply the dissemination of information, necessary in making legal decisions. Unfortunately, an uneducated society can be susceptible to believing anything. What comes from the mainstream media is branded true, even when clearly false. This has always been the case in Zimbabwe, beginning with the government’s…
Jesus was Lord, but was never honored
To most of those reading through the New Testament Scriptures, Jesus was globally honored, as Lord. Although projecting the unprecedented knowledge, Jesus was never globally honored.

Goodness estranged, where evil is embraced

Of course, ordinary people assume that the greatest thing to achieve in this life is becoming the President of a country. Hence, the proclivity to hero-worship dictators, for purposes of…
If physically present, would Jesus be treated similarly?
In the entire world, no other man is given glory, similarly to how Jesus is adored. But what has not crossed the minds of many worshippers is that Jesus is as physically present as He was in the first century. The same veil that occluded those of His time is…
Dichotomies in principles of existence
The greatest gift to be celebrated highly, in this generation is the advent of social media. Those bad-mouthing social media are themselves, social criminals, who thrive on the scarcity of information. While also taking advantage of social media to peddle falsehoods, criminals take no comfort in the availability of social…
Be wary of the marauding false prophets
The ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood is one of the most important virtues in human life. The Zimbabwean problems start with dubious Spiritism in Christianity. Apparently, the majority of our people believe in Spiritism, more than intellectual philosophy. The white-garment Madzibaba sects may comprise the largest followers of…
