    Trump may sign new executive order on health care soon

    Many other western nations have found viable ways to provide health care for their people. Maybe the USA could learn from lessons that are provided by those other nation's ways of meeting the need.

    Tikka kiyama o kiama bushendai kalianda kaliandasai leama bara shumi happa ... I don't recall a pop song with those lyrics. It could be interpreted as "The Lord is calling his people. Leading them to blessings and abundant life. Resist the world's call and receive what the Lord has to give...

    Gift of Tongues

    Josiah, it is gibberish whenever it is recorded and tested by language experts. For many people it seems that being a real language is not even up for consideration so they opt for "angelic" languages or "ecstatic speech" or simply "a prayer language" that corresponds to "unutterable groans"...

    Alternative Energy: Do you?

    I'd be interested to see molten salt nuclear reactors using abundant fuels like thorium taken seriously enough to run some significant sized test reactors. There was such a reactor in California in the 1960s-1970s. I am inclined to think that I shall not outlive coal and probably not oil...

    Gift of Tongues

    That's right. Even the encouraging messages are couched in generalities that make them little more than rehearsing God's promises in Christ and when the "interpretation of tongues" is specific about a congregation's happy prospects then it's like wishes put into words and the wishes do not come...

    Gift of Tongues

    Gift of Tongues

    It used to be the case that the bishops and the curia in the Catholic Church would examine claims to visions and words spoken by Blessed Mary, a saint, or maybe even Jesus to test them for consistency with Church teaching and credibility as well as internal consistency. The claims had to be...

    Alternative Energy: Do you?

    Even if the climate didn't change in any unusual way people are still going to face energy supply difficulties in the coming years. Even if coal and oil last for a century or more their prices will very likely rise unless some easy to extract sources are found and are also abundant enough to...
