“In [Christ] all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him” (Colossians 1:16). Christ created everyone and everything. The sheer size of the universe is staggering. The sun, for example, could hold 1.3 million planets the size of Earth inside it. The galaxy to which our sun belongs, the Milky Way, contains hundreds of billions of stars. And astronomers estimate there are millions, or even billions, of galaxies. Who created this awesome universe? According to the false teachers...

A Chicago 911 dispatcher warned Tuesday on "Fox & Friends" that citywide staffing shortages are exacerbating violent crime, knocking local government and leadership for their inability to keep citizens safe. "All hell has broken loose," Keith Thornton told "Fox & Friends" enterprise reporter Lawrence Jones. Thornton said that a "massive" amount of crime is taking place in the city at "all hours of the day," while first responders are being overworked and receiving no support from lawmakers and politicians. "What’s horrible is the lack of leadership and the failure of leadership throughout this entire city of Chicago—and it’s ridiculous because...

Insurers need experts to calculate risk. Among those number-crunchers’ riskiest endeavors are the tortuous exams for credentials. Kaylee Cohen studied two months for an actuarial exam last year—then failed it. She dreaded telling the actuaries at the insurance company where she was interning that she had flunked. “But when I told them, they said, ‘Oh yeah, I failed that one too,’ ” says the 23-year-old student at Montreal’s Concordia University. “It made me feel so much better knowing everybody else was in the same shoes.” She finally passed that exam and now has several more to go for an actuarial...

Pandemic of the Vaccinated: Two Studies Show New Evidence that Covid-19 Vaccines “Cause MORE ILLNESS than they Prevent” – After 3 Months, Pfizer Jab Recipients are 76.5% MORE LIKELY than the Unvaxxed to Contract Covid Two newly released studies show that – after a brief period of moderate protection – the experimental Covid-19 vaccines actually end up causing more illness than they prevent – especially when it comes to new variants like the now-predominant, and highly-mild Omicron. The first study, a pre-print that was released on MedRXiv by a team of researchers in Denmark, shows that the experimental vaccines provide...

'They fired hundreds out of spite and rage and vengeance, but forgot they actually need them' Corporations' mass firings of unvaccinated workers have been documented as becoming "more common" as Joe Biden repeatedly has mandated that they force their employees to accept the experimental COVID shots. But now those companies are discovering that perhaps Biden's leadership isn't really what they should follow. It's because they are in such staffing emergencies that they are now asking their dismissed workers, the unvaccinated, to return to rescue them. On social media, there are multiple reports:

Every decade, states redraw congressional district lines (and other seats as well) to account for changes in population, as per the Constitution. Often the party in power redraws the lines to retain and expand its power in a process called “gerrymandering.” “Gerrymandering distorts our democracy, and Democrats will enact measures to end partisan gerrymandering in federal elections,” according to the Democratic National Committee’s party platform...... “When you have a system that says we’re going to have purity in California and skulduggery in Texas, you end up with an unrepresentative chamber,” said to the Times. “We want to live in a...

Ardently pro-Trump radio host Wayne Allyn Root wants to stage an “intervention” with Donald Trump over the ex-president’s support for the COVID-19 vaccine. “He needs an intervention from a friend,” Root explained this week on conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ InfoWars program, adding that Trump is “in total delusion.” Root continued: “He’s been right on everything except this issue. He’s so horribly wrong on this issue, and the best way to put it, ironically, is that he’s dead wrong, because people are dying!” Root continued. “When everyone I know dies, you are getting the blame, President Trump!” This is not the...

Two surfers were recently chased by a shark while surfing along North Salmon Creek Beach, just north of Bodega Bay, the Press Democrat reported. The incident took place Dec. 22, just a few days before the fatal shark attack that happened off the coast of central California on Christmas Eve. “Holy crap, we were terrified because it was not backing off,” Sebastopol resident Timothy Reck told the newspaper. He says he and the other surfer escaped the shark aggressively pursuing them, but only after it bit onto the leash of one of their surfboards. Experts, however, say violent shark encounters...

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), in a policy reversal, announced on Dec. 28 that it would start enforcing its COVID-19 vaccine mandate to facilities in half the U.S. states, where the mandate hasn’t been judicially enjoined.CMS modified the compliance dates for the vaccine mandates. Facilities that receive Medicaid or Medicare funding must comply with the mandate’s first phase, meaning that all health care staff has to have received the first dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, or the single-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine by Jan. 27, 2022—or 30 days after the CMS memorandum (pdf) was issued.Those...
