About
Author of The Empathy Imperative, a novel inspired by German philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz’s conjecture that ours is the “best of all possible worlds.” The storyline is based on biblical literality and follows a skeptical professor of evolutionary biology on an adventure of surprising discoveries beginning with the coming of the Tribulation and ultimately culminating in a turn of events unforeseen even by Yahweh.
I was born and raised in Wilmington, NC where I graduated from New Hanover High School.

Hi Max. I’m Victoria. I read your comment on Howie’s recent post and found it to be one of the best comments I’ve read in a while. I replied to your comment, though you will not get a direct notification because I was in the middle of commenting when you posted your comment; so I had not yet “officially” subbed to that post. As you know, Howie has deactivated his nesting.
It’s a pleasure to meet you and I look forward to reading your blog.

I never argue. I only pontificate, and then only very rarely about things I know anything about. 🙂

I meant “argue,” of course, in the philosophical sense, as in “debate.” Surely folks who disagree with something upon which you pontificate, you offer response?
