The Pope’s political agenda is his personal opinion, and he’s fallible on matters of state like the rest of us. It is turning people away from the church. However, the Pope toned it down yesterday. Sean Hannity is a prominent example, once a devoted Catholic. Sean Hannity said he no longer considers himself a Catholic. He seems to be most upset about the Pope’s politics, but it’s not just that. On the 16th, he made comments about the sex abuse in the church. He has misinformation, as does most media. Some statistics for you from Bob Donohue of The Catholic…

Farmers Markets are gaining in popularity, probably partially inspired by the MAGA movement that is promoting a healthier lifestyle. But these outdoor (and sometimes indoor) collections of food booths are about more than getting fresh and local produce and other food products. They also boost the economy and provide a sense of community.Farmers Markets Growing in PopularityA study conducted by researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the Farmers Market Coalition was published in the Journal of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Community Development. The study surveyed 5,141 US residents and found that 80% of Americans visit farmers markets at least…

Day after day, the mainstream media assures us that we are right on the verge of peace in the Middle East. But the Great Middle East War has been raging since October 7th, 2023, and as I will explain in this article there will never be peace in the Middle East as long as the Shiite regime in Tehran is still standing. Of course we have also been subjected to endless headlines about a potential end to the war in Ukraine, but it has been raging since early 2022 with no end in sight. On top of everything else, apparently…
(Headline USA) President Donald Trump said that U.S. negotiators will head to Pakistan on Monday for talks with Iran, lifting hopes of extending a ceasefire set to expire this week even as Washington and Tehran remain locked in a standoff over the Strait of Hormuz.The prospect of talks on the horizon, which Iran did not immediately confirm, came as ships remain unable to transit the critical waterway amid threats from Iran and a U.S. blockade on ships heading to and from Iranian ports. Iranian officials said earlier on Sunday that they remained open to negotiation, but held firm that ships wouldn’t…

This season, their target is capitalism as young, smug teen Tori (Isabel Gravitt) goes on a liberal rant in an interview with a college admissions official at Princeton University. In episode 1, “We’re Here Until We’re Not,” Tori meets with a university official to discuss her goals as a potential student.

Hi, everyone, thanks for joining our Bible study about rain. How this topic came about was indirect and divinely inspired. Up until the last possible moment, this study was to be about Samson and Delilah. Why? Over the last week, my dear husband watched a 1949 movie about the pair. Except for knowing that Samson’s strength was rooted in his hair, I wasn’t very familiar with the story. I was busy and did not watch it with him. But, because of my husband’s chatter, I took it as a sign that I was supposed to write about why the Samson…

In 2024, a team led by University of Gothenburg medical researcher Almira Osmanovic Thunström invented a fake disease that called “bixonimania.” The fictional skin condition, they said, was caused by staring at screens for too long and rubbing one’s eyes too much. As Nature reports, the team uploaded two fake studies (both since been taken down) about the condition to a preprint server at the time in an effort to trick large language models into thinking it was real. It didn’t take long for their ruse to take off. Within just weeks of uploading the fake studies, frontier AI models…
