He was 92.

An Episcopal church in the Diocese of Arkansas was severely damaged by fire early Monday. It was at least the third time churchwide in a little over a month that an Episcopal congregation was left recovering from a blaze in its worship space. The latest incident occurred in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, where authorities were called to St. James Episcopal Church around 2:40 a.m. on June 26 and found smoke coming from the building.

As published yesterday in JAMA, Journal of the American Medical Association According to recent research, transgender people are significantly more likely to commit suicide than their peers. Using Denmark's centralized data repository, the new study discovered that the rate at which transgender people attempted suicide is 770% higher than non-transgender people. Transgender people also actually died as a result of the suicide attempts at a 350% higher level than non-transgender persons. Dr. Morten Frisch, a sexual health epidemiologist at the Statens Serum Institute in Copenhagen and co-author of the study, told The New York Times, “This is beyond doubt a...

A small, rural electric cooperative in eastern Utah approved a declaration of what it says is an “impending U.S. energy crisis,” fueled by the accelerated retirement of coal-fired power plants without ensuring an alternative base load energy supply can take their place. In the action approved by board members of the Moon Lake Electric Association earlier this month, the nonprofit cooperative serving 24,121 connections that include the Ute Indian Tribe said current federal energy policies are untenable. “There is a growing trend of decommissioning many of the existing dispatchable power generation resources across the country without viable replacements. Demand for...

Several Dutch citizens who had autism or other intellectual disabilities have died by physician-assisted suicide in recent years after doctors determined their afflictions were untreatable obstacles to a normal life, researchers found. Nearly 40 people who identified as autistic or intellectually disabled were legally euthanized in the Netherlands between 2012 and 2021, according to a Kingston University investigation of Dutch euthanasia cases. Five people younger than 30 who were killed at their own request cited autism as the sole or a major reason for their decision to end their lives, the UK study found. With those cases, experts have questioned...

The push for gender-affirming care taking place in recent years not only creates a market for the technological reproduction industry but also is a “ramp to transhumanism,” an investigative journalist said. Gender-affirming care for individuals who believe that their gender identity conflicts with their gender at birth creates a very profitable market for the technological reproduction industry, which includes egg freezing, surrogacy, genetic manipulation, and other technologies, especially for big pharma and big tech, said Jennifer Bilek, an investigative journalist. However, the goal of transgenderism s to assimilate males and females all throughout, Bilek told Epoch TV’s “American Thought Leaders”...

Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday refused to pledge his support to whoever becomes the Democratic nominee in the event he fails to secure the nomination.Asked by Elizabeth Vargas in a town hall hosted by NewsNation whether he will “pledge to support whoever the Democratic nominee is,” Kennedy responded, “Oh, of course I’m not gonna do that.”

Over at The Epoch Times, Roger Simon states the commonsense truth that the "Hunter Biden 'Plea Deal' Is an Insult to Our Intelligence." He quotes presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy: It's no accident that the farcical Hunter Biden "plea deal" comes right after the Trump indictment: it's the perfect fig leaf to pretend that "no one is above the law," while absolutely putting certain people above the law. It's an Orwellian gesture that gives the news media exactly the level of cover that they needed. The quote is very good, but I would offer this small improvement: "... while making it...

Ammunition warehouses of the Bulgarian arms company EMKO exploded early on Sunday near Karnobat, a few days after Bulgaria announced it would join the coalition to supply shells to Ukraine. The warehouses that exploded Sunday were targeted a year ago in an instance of sabotage. They are owned by one of the most famous Bulgarian arms manufacturers and traders, Emilian Gebrev, who, eight years ago, was the victim of an assassination attempt with a substance similar to Novichok, for which the Bulgarian prosecutor’s office accused Russian military intelligence agents. “This is an inexplicable strong fire at midnight. The most important...

The bottom of the slippery slopeThe long ordeal of Pride Month is almost at a close, but this festival would not be truly complete without prominent figures advancing the argument for child sexualization. Adults exposing themselves to random children on the street is de jure illegal; those who do so are criminals who should receive a prison sentence and a spot on the sex offender registry. Until a few years ago, this was the obvious and unspoken consensus across America. No discussion on the issue was needed; perverts who waved their genitals at children went to jail and were viewed...

NANTERRE, France (AP) — A French police officer who shot and killed a 17-year-old driver will be investigated for voluntary homicide, following two days of fires and violent protests that injured scores of officers, officials said Thursday. Some 40,000 police officers will be deployed overnight to quell violence that engulfed cities and towns in the wake of the shooting. The killing of 17-year-old Nahel during a traffic check Tuesday, captured on video, shocked the country and stirred up long-simmering tensions between young people and police in housing projects and other disadvantaged neighborhoods around France. Protesters set cars and public buildings...

It’s not about accepting gays or even gender dysphoria -- it’s about grooming. "We hear you," says Anheuser Busch. But do they? The evidence says otherwise. Obviously the Democrats don’t hear the people. They don’t recognize that, in general, the people are smarter than Chuck Schumer looks. SNIP Back to Bud Light, “Anheuser-Busch’s global chief marketing officer, Marcel Marcondes, told the Cannes Lions International Festival, according to a report from AdAge. “It’s tough exactly because what we do is all about bringing people together.” So, AB’s “we hear you” isn’t exactly that. If they did hear us they would realize...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemLuke 18 The Parable of the Persistent Widow 18 Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. 2 He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. 3 And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.’ 4 “For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, ‘Even though I don’t fear God or care what people think, 5...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “The Story,” 2024 presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said that he wants to eliminate the Departments of Education, Commerce, and Energy, along with the IRS and if Congress won’t do so, “I’m going to use those agencies to push back against woke ideology and against the leftism that we see creeping into all institutions of American life.” After DeSantis said he would “bring major accountability to the DOJ, to the FBI, IRS.” Host Martha MacCallum asked, “Are you in favor of eliminating any agencies? I know conservatives in the past...
