Jesus may not love you

Jesus loves all the little people of the world, right? For he so loved the world, right? Not so fast! Though scripture can be cited to validate his loving nature, Jesus restricted his affection to a smaller community that must adhere to his rules.

Read on for validation of Jesus' stipulation for inclusion into his family fold.

Simply put, you need to do God's will to be part of the holy family.

State of the Middle East

Trump, Cruz in a road race to finish line in Iowa

The first primary contest of Campaign 2016 in Iowa could very well be a decisive factor in the primary race, as Trump insists victory is crucial, and as Cruz has practically lived in Iowa over the last number of weeks, suggesting Iowa is critical for him also. Perhaps "win it or lose it" in Iowa is the attitude concerning Campaign 2016. Trump is slightly ahead, a much-needed reality for the reality star and overall mogul and politician...

All in? Iowa matters!

More nuclear power in Third World

Though many, especially activists, fear nuclear power expanding into underdeveloped lands, both the U.S. & Russia are spearheading nuclear projects in Cambodia and Vietnam (Russia to go nuclear in Cambodia. U.S. follows suit in Vietnam)

This is astonishing considering that Cambodia is so poorly developed that the United Nations had to assume financial responsibility for it recently. Vietnam fares not much better when considering that the going wage rate is about $2 per day.

Perhaps the logic is that nuclear development there will lead to economic progress that will emancipate both countries from Third World status. Or, will this lead to further nuclear weapons proliferation?

Who knows?

Third World nuclear windfall!

Jesus did and did not exist

The question concerning Jesus' existence has a twofold answer: 1)Yes, he did exist, and 2) no, he most likely didn't.
Taking this question strictly on mythical grounds, like whether Zeus mythically but not physically existed, one can say yes, Jesus exists. Taking this question historically, on the other hand, one can say proof of Jesus' existence is sorely lacking.

An interesting read on this subject is Bart Ehrman's book Did Jesus Exist?. Even though this book contends that Jesus existed historically, it sorts through the historical record frantically and unsuccessfully, to a large extent, in attempting to prove Jesus' existence. Simply put, historical accounts of Jesus' existence are quite lacking, especially those records produced (none, really) during his lifetime. In fact, the best contended historical evidence comes from Josephus, who was born 4 years after Jesus' death, and his account, only one paragraph in length, has been widely discredited as fraudulent.

Mythically, like Zeus, yes, an abundance of literature exists, thus his omnipresence today, but myth does not translate necessarily to reality.

Ehrman's book, nevertheless, is interesting and thus a decent read.

Decent read

Are psychics genuine?

Can we communicate with the dead? Can we foresee reality? If so, who can? This book, The Witch of Lime Street: Seance, Seduction, and Houdini in the Spirit World by David Jaher, addresses these questions within the context of Spiritualism, a movement that flourished in the United States early in the 20th century.

Margery Crandon, a reputed psychic, takes on the establishment, with dazzling results. The best of the best from the scientific community, including the prestigious publication Scientific American, scrutinizes her extensively.

A must read, as the following review validates: “Riveting reading...flamboyant, enigmatic, and complex characters. [Jaher] is also a diligent researcher, and his storytelling skills are impressive.”
—Wall Street Journal

Full of fear & loathing

Hey, it's the campaign season! Campaign 2016!

A highly recommended reading sure to boost political enthusiasm is Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72.
This book details what the author, Hunter S. Thompson, considers to be wrong with American politics: namely, Richard Nixon, a dark and venal creature so vile that America sucks largely because of him!

Written in a highly engaging, humorous manner, this book will both fascinate and entertain you. One review: “Obscene, horrid, repellent . . . Driving, urgent, candid, searing . . . A fascinating, compelling book.” —The New York Post

A must read during the campaign season!

Indispensable political wisdom!
