Church leaders are not untouchable, and christians must stop acting like they are

Image
  I have increasingly come to believe that one of the most dangerous things happening in modern Christianity is the way many believers have elevated church leaders beyond normal human accountability. In many churches today, pastors, bishops, prophets, apostles, and other religious leaders are treated as though questioning them is equal to questioning God Himself. That mindset has created an environment where some leaders are protected even when there are serious allegations against them that include sexual abuse, financial fraud, manipulation, spiritual coercion, and conduct that would immediately provoke outrage if committed by anyone outside church walls. To me, that is deeply troubling because no religious title should place anyone above scrutiny. A pastor remains a human being. A bishop remains a human being. A preacher remains a human being. And human beings, regardless of how eloquently they preach or how many scriptures they quote, remain fully capable of wrongdoing. The ide...

I was born in the right generation: I love questioning the government and the church/religion

Image
  I genuinely believe I was born in the right generation (Gen-Z). Not because life today is easier, and certainly not because everything around us works the way it should, but because I belong to a time where questioning power is becoming normal instead of forbidden. There was a time when openly criticizing government could make you disappear, cost you your freedom, or mark you permanently as dangerous. There was also a time when questioning religion was treated almost like rebellion against society itself, when asking difficult questions about faith, doctrine, or religious authority could isolate you socially or even place you in real danger. Today, even though those risks still exist in some places and in some forms, I feel fortunate to live in an era where people can challenge powerful institutions more openly than many generations before us ever could. That freedom matters deeply to me because I think questioning is one of the healthiest things a society can allow. I know peopl...

We should've stopped somewhere between discovering fire and filing taxes.

Image
  Human beings like to call themselves the most intelligent species on earth, and perhaps biologically that is true. We discovered fire, built wheels, crossed oceans, created medicine, mapped the stars, split atoms, connected continents through invisible signals, and taught machines to imitate thought. On paper, it sounds like the greatest success story in existence. Yet sometimes when you step back and look carefully at what modern civilization has become, you cannot help but wonder whether somewhere along the way we kept advancing long after wisdom had stopped keeping up. We should probably have stopped somewhere between discovering fire and filing taxes. Because fire made sense. Fire gave warmth, protection, cooked food, extended human survival, and created community. It gathered people together instead of pushing them apart. But once humanity kept going, we somehow ended up building systems so complicated that millions of people now spend their lives trapped inside structures t...

Kenya Cannot Survive Another Presidency Built on Forgiveness Without Justice

Image
  Every election season in Kenya arrives wrapped in language that sounds noble. Politicians speak about healing, reconciliation, unity, and moving the country forward. They promise that old wounds must not divide us, that anger must not consume us, that we should look ahead instead of behind. It is language designed to sound mature, presidential, and patriotic. But Kenyans should now be careful whenever they hear those phrases, because too often they are not invitations to heal—they are early warning signs that accountability is about to be buried again. The country has paid dearly for leaders who treat justice as negotiable and accountability as an inconvenience. We have repeatedly been told that prosecuting powerful people risks destabilizing the nation, that exposing uncomfortable truths may reopen ethnic tensions, that punishing major political figures could harm national unity. Yet every time justice is postponed in the name of peace, Kenya does not become stronger. It becomes...

$3 Billion Off Their Bodies: OnlyFans’ Founder Was a Middleman, Not a Tech Genius

Image
  The news that Leonid Radvinsky, the owner of OnlyFans, died at 43 is a moment that demands reflection. The man reportedly made $3 billion from a platform where countless others sold themselves, their bodies, and their privacy. Every video, every message, every tip, every transaction—Radvinsky took 20%. He didn’t build a tech empire. He built the most successful middleman operation in modern history. And for years, society called him a “tech founder,” as if that somehow absolved the moral implications of what he profited from. Radvinsky wasn’t a tech visionary. He didn’t invent a new way of communicating or solving a technical problem. He simply created a marketplace, positioned himself at the top, and took a cut of the most intimate labor of others. OnlyFans was profitable from day one, no venture capital, no IPO, no external investors. Because when your business model is taking a fifth of what someone earns from their own skin, you don’t need outside validation. You need creator...

A State That Values Airtime Over Teachers and Doctors Has Lost Its Soul

Image
  The hypocrisy is staggering. In Kenya, the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) routinely claims it “lacks money” to pay doctors, nurses, and Junior Secondary School (JSS) teachers adequately. Yet somehow, there is never a shortage when it comes to Members of Parliament and political officeholders. It is a contradiction that speaks to misplaced priorities and a moral failure at the very top of the state. Take the glaring example of Speaker Moses Wetang’ula, who receives KSh 25,000 every month just for airtime. That is more than the entire monthly salary of a JSS teacher earning KSh 17,000. A teacher who spends their life shaping young minds, inspiring children, and carrying the hopes of the nation is expected to survive on less than what a politician receives for making phone calls. The irony is brutal and deeply symbolic: those who heal the sick and mold the nation’s children are told to be patient, to sacrifice, and to wait for “better economic times.” Meanwhile, the poli...

Why Psychotic Killers Should Never Return to Society

Image
  There are some stories that leave you shaken because the legal outcome feels completely detached from reality. The case of Eina Kwon is one of them. An eight-month pregnant woman, driving to work like any ordinary person, is shot and killed. Her unborn child dies instantly. Her husband barely survives, left with trauma that no court verdict can erase. And the man responsible, Cordell Goosby , is found not guilty by reason of insanity. For many, that ruling is more than a legal technicality, it is a moral shock, a gut-level disbelief that the world can feel so upside down. Because the brutality of what happened does not care about expert testimony. It does not care about diagnostic labels or psychological terms. It is real. It is death. It is grief. And yet the court’s conclusion can leave ordinary people asking: how is it that someone capable of this level of violence is not held fully accountable? Some argue that insanity should protect those who cannot understand reality. But ...
