It’s a bit of a funny way to say it but reality did pivot on the signing of the Magna Carta. The Magna Carta doesn’t explicitly say this but what it recognizes is that everyone has a soul. And in the eyes of God everyone is equal. And we here on Earth need to establish…

It is basic human nature – the desire for novelty. It isn’t exactly correct to define it as a search to belay boredom but let me paint you a picture. We are always looking for something new and novel. And in this search things will inevitably escalate. What was novel to you for a while…
