True "Traditional Values" would mean caring for the neighbor, the immigrant, and the poor. Instead, we see a push for infinite growth and greed. When "More" becomes the only god, "Enough" becomes a heresy. #StudsTerkel #Faith #Politics

On the Right and medical quackery
I'm listening to a 1978 interview of Susan Sontag by Studs Terkel on the topic of Illness as Metaphor.
At 39 minutes, Sontag notes that the extreme right has long been occupied by medical quackery:

She and Studs also talk about the morality and moralisation of illness, notably (at the time) TB and cancer.

Intro post! It took me a while to figure out what to say. I've been a software developer or something related like programming instructor or development manager for more than 20 years. I still love it but am trying to start a new career as an author.
My posts are mainly about #writing, #parenting, #MagicTheGathering, and #ProgressiveChristianity.
Favorite authors: #DorisLessing, #LaurenGroff, #HowardThurman, #StudsTerkel, and #TonkeDragt.
