Colombia, donde el verde es de todos los colores

William Ospina

La ideología oficial que impera en Colombia, la que rige la mentalidad de sus dirigentes y orienta el discurso de sus grandes medios de comunicación, ha seguido presa de ese lamentable discurso colonial que solo vio sus paradigmas en las metrópolis, que centró su dinámica en la imitación de modelos ilustres, que se sintió siempre en una región marginal del mundo, y giró siglo a siglo como una luna febril alrededor de los viejos centros de la esfera: la Corona española, el Vaticano, la Revolución francesa, el mercantilismoo inglés, el industrialismo y el consumismo de los Estados Unidos.

God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything

God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything Christopher Hitchens Religion has run out of justifications. Thanks to the telescope and the microscope, it no longer offers an explanation of anything important.

The business plan of BUMMER is to sneakily take data from you and make money off it. Look at how rich BUMMER companies are and remember that their wealth is made entirely of the data you gave them. BUMMER was originally sold as a barter deal. 'Let us spy on you and in return you'll get free services.' This might seem like a reasonable deal in the short term, but in the long term it's terrible.

Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space

Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space Carl Sagan The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Due to our own actions or inactions, and the misuse of our technology, we live at an extraordinary moment, for the Earth at least - the first time that a species has become able to wipe itself out. But this is also, we may note, the first time that a species has become able to journey to the planets and the stars.
