Courage: A Short Perspective on Moral Courage and the Hard Right Courage is often imagined as loud—dramatic moments, bold declarations, or fearless acts under pressure. But the courage that shapes character and steadies a life is usually quieter. It appears in ordinary moments, when doing what is right requires doing what is difficult. In Courage, Paul J. Ferguson explores moral courage not as bravado, but as a daily practice—formed in restraint, tested by fear, and revealed in the small decisions where conviction matters more than comfort. Drawing on reflection rather than prescription...

This book provides a complete overview of the American Founders' political theory, covering natural rights, natural law, state of nature, social compact, consent, and the policy implications of these ideas. The book is intended as a response to the current scholarly consensus, which holds that the Founders' political thought is best understood as an amalgam of liberalism, republicanism, and perhaps other traditions. 

You already live as if some things are really wrong. Not just inconvenient. Not just unpopular. Wrong. That is why betrayal cuts deeper than disagreement. That is why injustice feels heavier than preference. That is why even people who call morality “subjective” still speak in the language of fairness, dignity, blame, and justice when life gets real. The Moral Signature: Why Right and Wrong Point to a Moral Lawgiver is Book 4 in the TruthScripts series, Does God Exist?—written for thoughtful skeptics, seekers, doubters, and believers in transition who want clarity without pressure. ...

In 1948, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was marketed as a global Magna Carta—a secular shield forged in the wake of the Holocaust to protect the individual from the predator state. Today, it remains the most translated document in existence. Yet, three generations later, Bernd Riemann argues that this foundational text is not a failed promise, but a masterfully designed procedural mirage. In this provocative and data-driven deconstruction, Riemann performs a surgical audit of all thirty articles of the declaration, comparing the utopian rhetoric of the post-war era with ...
