As AI becomes more integrated into daily life, ethical considerations take center stage. We, the next generation, are responsible for guiding AI’s ethical development. From ensuring fairness in AI algorithms to preventing bias, we can lead the charge in creating a world where technology serves all of humanity, not just a few. This is our moment to influence how AI evolves—toward transparency, accountability, and inclusiveness. The future is in our hands.

Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?
John 1:46
“You’re not what I expected. I thought I’d hate you, but I don’t.” The young man’s words seemed harsh, but they were actually an effort to be kind. I was studying abroad in his country, a land that decades earlier had been at war with my own. We were participating in a group discussion in class together, and I noticed he seemed distant. When I asked if I’d offended him somehow, he responded, “Not at all . . . . And that’s the thing. My grandfather was killed in that war, and I hated your people and your country for it. But now I see how much we have in common, and that surprises me. I don’t see why we can’t be friends.”
Prejudice is as old as the human race. Two millennia ago, when Nathanael first heard about Jesus living in Nazareth, his bias was evident: “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” he asked (John 1:46). Nathanael lived in the region of Galilee, like
AI is more than a technological advancement—it’s an ethical frontier that you can help define. In a time when issues of fairness, equality, and inclusivity matter most, AI offers a chance to build systems that reflect our highest values. You are the generation that can steer AI toward ethical development, ensuring it works for everyone, regardless of background. By shaping how AI is implemented, you can help eradicate biases and create a future that is fairer, more just, and more inclusive. The ethical use of AI is in your hands, and the world depends on your leadership.
AI’s true power lies not just in its capabilities but in how we use it. Young people have the unique opportunity to shape AI into a force for good, ensuring it reflects the values of inclusivity, fairness, and justice. From fighting biases in algorithms to creating transparent AI systems, you are the generation that can guide AI’s development ethically. With AI, you can tackle societal issues, create more equitable systems, and give a voice to those who have been marginalized. The future of AI is in your hands, and with it, the chance to build a more just and compassionate world.

The Modern-Day Witch Hunt
The label "far-right" today carries as much weight and destruction as the cry of "witch!" did in the Middle Ages.
No evidence needed, no investigation necessary just one accusation, and suddenly you're cast out, demonised, and ostracised. The term has become a catch-all, a convenient way to smear anyone who dares challenge the mainstream narrative. And I'm angry. I'm angry because this label isn't about protecting society from extremists it's about shutting people up, getting rid of the ones the powers that be don't like.
In the Middle Ages, women (and occasionally men) were labeled witches for everything from being a
bit too independent to knowing how to use herbs. The accusations came without evidence, often based on hearsay, jealousy, or fear. The mob didn't care about facts. They cared about punishment. It was a tool for control, a way to silence the different, the non-conforming, the inconvenient.
Sound familiar?
Today, the new word hurled around with reckless abandon is
AI presents us with the opportunity to build a fairer and more ethical world. Young innovators have the power to guide AI's development toward transparency, inclusivity, and equality. By prioritizing ethical AI, we can combat biases and ensure that the technology benefits everyone, not just a select few. This generation can lead the charge in holding AI accountable, developing systems that promote fairness, and ensuring that the future we create is just for all. The responsibility lies in your hands to make sure AI is used as a force for good.

Apologetic Bias or Self-Delusional Sermons on the
As with nearly all ‘true believers’ the basement tier internet apologists are generally smug, condescending, self-righteous and antagonistic towards all other religious mythologies because they cannot distinguish the difference between claims; i.e., the collection of ludicrous legends, fantastic fables, and magical myths that are presented in the ‘bible’, ‘qu’ran’, or any other ancient mythological text for that matter, and actual objectively verifiable evidence which could support those claims. Instead, these people have swallowed those magical ideas that make up the christian mythology likely because they were indoctrinated to believe them by the people around them prior to their reaching a level of cognitive mental reasoning that would have allowed them to rationally evaluate those claims or in simpler terms they were taught what to think but never how to think at least regarding this ideology. They appear to imagine that if they just ramble on about their mythological views

Four Pillars of Christian Apologetics, Part One
The First Pillar: Deceptions, Empty Claims, Lies & Prejudice
It has been my experience over the past few decades that frequently the apologist’s arguments are based almost entirely on false or distorted facts, overt deceptions, unsupportable claims, personal bias and prejudice and even outright lies. This can often result from self-deception as the apologist has heard another believer present what they believe to be a ‘sound or factual argument’ which resonates with the listener’s preconceived ideas who then repeats this without any follow-up investigation to determine the veracity of the idea or ideas being presented.
Where the facts presented are simply false whether the apologist has deceived themselves or is attempting to willingly deceive others truly does not matter in the end. What matters is only whether the facts being promoted can be verified as conforming to reality or not. If they cannot then these are not ‘facts’ but empty claims that must be called out as such and
