Various studies have found an association between severe vitamin D deficiency and COVID-19-related outcomes. Vitamin D plays a crucial role in immune function and inflammation. Recent data have suggested a protective role of vitamin D in COVID-19-related health outcomes. 4.

A meta-analysis per se does not allow us to state whether the results are truly positive or false-positive. In addition, the inclusion of studies with large effect sizes and significant...

Sometimes all it takes is a single wokester complaint for the world to be turned upside down. A woke minority now has the power of 'one.' Whenever I come across information about those who give in to the demands of the woke, it is never from a multitude of complaints. A small minority, often a single person, amount to the only ones complaining, and making demands which should not be given into. In 2018, from a local radio station, I heard the news about another radio station that stopped playing, Baby, It’s Cold Outside, due to a single listener complaining....

The House passed a resolution to remove progressive Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) from her position on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs in a party-line vote on Wednesday. Top Republicans had vowed to remove her from the panel, citing her inflammatory remarks made in 2019 about Israel, with the Minnesota Democrat having suggested politicians who support the Jewish state are motivated by campaign dollars — remarks that were slammed as antisemitic by members on both sides of the aisle. The House ultimately voted 218-211, with one Republican — Rep. David Joyce (R-OH), a member of the Ethics Committee — voting...

our cereal could be killing you. A new study out of England published Tuesday links ultra-processed foods with heightened risk for developing and dying from cancer. Researchers at London’s Imperial School of Public Health collected diet data for nearly 200,000 middle-aged adults and monitored their health over roughly 10 years, specifically their risk of developing 34 types of cancer. The medical researchers found that every 10 percentage point increase in the consumption of “ultra-processed” food — defined as items heavily processed during production such as ready-to-eat meals and a majority of breakfast cereals — was associated with a 2 percent...

The Satanic Temple is opening a health clinic in New Mexico to provide "free religious medication abortion" and will name the facility "The Samuel Alito’s Mom’s Satanic Abortion Clinic" in mockery of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, who authored the opinion overturning Roe v.

These services will be provided free of charge as part of The Satanic Temple's "abortion ritual," though patients must still pay for the medications from a pharmacy, which typically cost around...

Tyre Nichols footage unmasks the left’s ugly blood libelCities around the country braced themselves for the possibility of riots last week after police bodycam footage was released in connection with the death of a black suspect, Tyre Nichols, who was pulled over for driving erratically. The footage appears to show Nichols receiving a severe beating at the hands of Memphis police after resisting arrest. As with so many of these instances, it is wise not to rush to judgment, but the available video seems rather damning for the officers involved. The injuries from the beating would later prove fatal, and...

House Republicans have argued Omar should not serve on the committee in light of past statements she has made related to Israel that in some cases been criticized by members of both parties as antisemitic.

Occult Gnostic pantheism arose among certain Jews during the Babylonian exile, thus, is grounded in ‘Ageless Wisdom Teachings’ from the time of Babylon. Eventually, Gnostics developed Christian variations and then in the heart of Christendom, another version arose – ‘Liberal Christianity.’ Liberal Christianity took shape among medieval mystics such as Meister Eckhart (1260-1327) and in the forms of Renaissance occult science, occult philosophy such as Kabbalah and the Hermetic tradition; and within occult groups such as the Rosicrucian’s; certain Radical Reformers (i.e., Kaspar von Schwenkfeld) and the ‘death of Christian God’ movement. (1) It took form and quickly became a...
