Does God exist? Modern science shows he must, bestseller argues

Science and religion have never been easy bedfellows. As Thomas Jefferson put it in 1820, priests “dread the advance of science as witches do the approach of daylight”. Five centuries of scientific breakthroughs — from Galileo to Darwin to Crick and Watson — have eroded our belief in the divine.

But now, according to a new book, a “great reversal” is under way. Science, its authors argue over 580 pages, has come full circle and “forcefully put the question of the existence of a creator God back on the table”.

What’s Wrong With Las Vegas?

Just north of the Las Vegas Strip lies a graveyard of relics that recalls the boomtown’s lofty ambitions.

Dented metal signs, neon bulbs humming, lie in the desert dust, welcoming you to a city as varied as its defunct businesses: the bright pink feathers of the original Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel and Casino; the Red Barn’s crimson cherry in a martini glass, homage to one of the city’s first gay bars; the dancing “Happy Shirt” of Steiner Cleaners, Liberace’s one-time laundry.

They are reminders of long-closed places in a city that has reinvented itself time and time again.


I love Vegas. Mostly because Kathy loved it.

Never big gamblers we always managed to enjoy ourselves and had a bucket list of attractions we hoped to tick off on our next visit.

One day I’ll complete that list.

It sounds like the corporate pirates have worked their magic and turned their back on Middle America.

That’s worked great for Disney and Netflix.

Viva Las Vegas!

Still looks a frost mid week but with a low of 5 vs 2 C overnight Tuesday.

The Antichrist is back

The monster known as the Antichrist has been stalking Christians for nearly 2,000 years. Mostly it has fed the nightmares of frightened peasants or credulous fundamentalists. But now it has emerged from the most secular place on Earth, Silicon Valley, and its prophet is a billionaire venture capitalist married to a man.

The origins of the Antichrist legend lie in the Book of Revelation, in which the nations submit to a Beast whose name is concealed by the number 666. He forces everyone to receive a mysterious ‘mark on their right hands or foreheads’ without which they cannot buy or sell anything. This triggers the return of Jesus at the Battle of Armageddon. Early Christians seized on the ambiguous term ‘antichrist’, a word found in the Epistles of John, used in the plural to refer to heretics in general, and combined it with the Beast. Enter the demonic supervillain known as the Antichrist – a Satanic demagogue so seductive that he conquers the world and, in more recent interpretations, uses his implanted mark to usher in one-world government.

Was Kirk ‘Divisive’—or Did He Simply Say What Millions Believe?

Charlie Kirk’s critics branded him “divisive,” but his defense of common-sense values made him a unifying voice for millions—until the Left sought to silence him.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is exercised that Charlie Kirk once said that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was “a mistake.”

Rep. Bennie Thompson sees AOC’s charge and raises it: “The fact is,” he said in an official statement, “Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric was divisive, disparaging, and too often rooted in grievance. The beliefs he evangelized normalized fringe views on race, sex, and immigration. Unfortunately, his rhetoric resurrected dangerous prejudices of a dark past.”

Charlie Kirk’s grieving widow has revealed exactly how she feels about her husband’s alleged killer facing the death penalty.

The former Miss Arizona, who was appointed the new CEO of Turning Point USA on Thursday, said she wants the government to decide what happens to Tyler Robinson, the suspect accused of fatally shooting Kirk, 31.

Welcome.

Wait and harvest. That’s pretty well it at this point. Waiting for the cold weather to turn the plants off, genus by genus depending on their temperature resilience, leaving the Kale as the last plant standing.
