Writing on religion, economics, free speech, and institutional power

Harry's Focus Areas

Questioning what we believe — and why we believe it.

Religion & secularism

A critical look at religion’s role in shaping morality, and a case for secular thinking grounded in reason.

Free speech & the right to offend

A belief that you have the right to offend — and others have the right to be offended.

Taxation, finance, economic & law

An exploration of how tax systems and legal frameworks shape behaviour, investment, and economic outcomes.

Political ideology & institutional power politics

An examination of how institutions operate in practice — often diverging from the principles they claim to uphold.

Moral reasoning in modern societies tribalism

A critique of how group identity and social pressure distort moral judgment and limit open dialogue.

A Questioning Book

Why Is It? We Are Afraid of Being Descendants of Monkeys but not Incest

In a series of piercing, often uncomfortable questions, Harry Margulies confronts the contradictions at the heart of modern moral and religious thinking. Blending philosophy, satire, and legal reasoning, the book challenges readers to think more honestly — and more consistently.

We are not disturbed by contradiction — only by the questions that expose it.
