“If we get this wrong, the Chinese are there waiting … They’re spending a lot of money to be the global leader … their values will come baked into their systems: censorship, surveillance and control.”
(John Stossel – Townhall) Cell phones made my life easier. So did the internet. Artificial intelligence may enrich it even more. But lots of people are worried. “Stop AI or we’re all going to die!” shout protesters.”
It’s possible that AI will decide that we humans are in the way and imprison us or kill us. Not likely, say AI specialists, but possible. Continue reading
“The newly released files revealed a few more interesting tidbits…”
“This is a very disturbing story that every parent should watch.”
(Douglas Andrews – The Patriot Post) Can anyone in this country explain what the law says concerning mail-in ballots? I sure as heck can’t. I suspect you can’t, either. So is it too much to ask, given that former Trump Attorney General William Barr was 
(Bill O’Reilly) It is noble that the United States honors the innocent victims as well as the first responders on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attack. But that nobility is not universally shared. The terror brigades directed by Iran are still operating, and that country continues to fund death and destruction.
(Victor Davis Hanson) The primaries are over, and the November general election looms.
“That juror was also said to have taken the rope, that was in the room for jurors to see, and placed it around a bottle to show how much force it would take to kill a child or baby. The women were shocked at the violence displayed — by the juror, not the mom.” 
This piece was first published in 2021. CRN posted it as a warning to those who declare their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior not to participate in “magic” even when what they’re doing is “just for fun.” Occult practices, i.e. witchcraft are all about interacting with unseen forces for the purpose of uncovering hidden knowledge.
Amidst evangelicalism’s lust for personal experience through charismania and contemplative mysticism, over a decade ago Ken Silva of Apprising Ministries offered a biblical look at this critical truth.
(Hudson Baldwin – The Patriot Post) It has now been a year since 
“Just like the outside culture, celebrity pastors have adoring fans and often function like celebrities. They grow massive egos and insulate themselves from the outside world. In so doing, they become shepherds unlike Jesus, who was humble, approachable, and would talk to anyone (
“Disney’s forte isn’t entertainment…its mission is moral formation. And its mission is to form your children’s morals away from the objective moral standard presented in a Christian worldview.”
“He would not interact with us… He had the hardest time getting off the fact that Lindsay viciously killed her children.”
“Grudem affirms liberal talking points about America being a nation of immigrants.”
“[The script is] an acid trip. I’ve never read anything like it. There’s some crazy stuff. In order to tell the story properly you have to start with the fall of the angels. You’re in another realm. You need to go Hell. You need to go to Sheol.”
“Even as the four Pray’s Mill elders involved in the scandal resigned, the question remains, “What happened?” These same men compiled a dossier detailing what they believed to be every misstep of Tom Buck’s preaching, but does anyone know all of the details regarding their failures, forcing their resignation? Furthermore, does anyone know why they did this?”
Kirk’s family called the ruling “an important step in our family’s pursuit of justice.”
(Doug Ladner) There are books that inform, and there are books that unsettle, and every so often a book manages to do both at once. Keri Ladner’s American Dominion: The Rise and Radicali)zation of a New Christendom is that kind of book. I do not say this lightly, and I do not say it as a matter of political fashion. I say it as someone who has spent a good many years sitting across from people whose faith was bent and used against them, and who has come to recognize how much of the damage traces back to the very theological currents Ladner is tracing here. This is a book I believe every Evangelical Christian in this country needs to read, even — perhaps especially — those who will find parts of it uncomfortable.
While eastern meditation emphasizes repetitive chanting, the Bible teaches mediation as a means of reflecting on the meaning of scripture and condemns vain repetition. “But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.” – Matthew 6:7 KJV
“One of the reasons God pulls back the curtain – in the Bible and today – and allows us to see people blowing their lives up with sin is to warn us of the consequences we’ll reap from our own sin, and so that we might learn not to repeat the sins of others. Take the free advice God gave the PMBC elders. They spurned it. You learn it. Or you just might be the next example God allows others to learn from.”
“Is there a Biblical model of church conferences? With all the valuable information the Scriptures provide on how the church should function, one wonders whether there are examples of conferences in the early church. Actually, there are some. Paul calls the Ephesian elders to meet with him in Miletus, where he counsels them to “pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood” (
(Protestia) Prominent evangelical teaching and preaching ministry G3 is shutting down “effective immediately,” according to a brief email they sent to Network church partners that was obtained by Protestia.
