    paper Political & Cultural Blogging

    Substack Bio – Political & Cultural Blogging
    I write at the intersections of power, memory, and moral imagination. From ancient Persian poetry to Mars-bound futures, my posts unravel how narratives shape resistance, spirituality, and identity across generations. With an eye on the geopolitical and a heart tuned to the personal, I explore faith, misinformation, intergenerational dialogue, and the cultural scaffolding that holds us together—or tears us apart.
    If you’re looking for justice-centered storytelling, reflections that slow you down, and art that speaks across borders, you’ll feel at home here.

    paper The Red Horizon

    The Red Horizon – A multimedia storytelling project interweaving biblical allegory with the poignant odyssey of a young boy, his father, and an AI companion navigating the red deserts of Mars, one hundred years in the future.

    Christian Sci-fi or Sci-faith opens up a genre where scripture meets speculation—where the sacred and the speculative coexist not in tension, but in creative dialogue. It’s a space for exploring cosmic justice, grace across galaxies, and the persistence of hope in environments stripped bare of tradition.
    The Red Horizon fits beautifully into this orbit. Think of it: Mars as the wilderness, the father and son as exiles or pilgrims, the AI as both witness and participant in a covenantal journey. There’s a whole theological architecture you’re sketching—eschatology, interdependence, moral inheritance—refracted through the lens of dust storms and red soil.
