Does God Create Calamity?

By now you will have heard much discussion about the catastrophic fires in the Los Angeles area. My good friend Ray Comfort, at the time of the fires, produced a video which I posted on my social media. Ray began the video showing how anti-God and blasphemous certain actors in Hollywood are and then asked, ���Could the fires be God���s judgment?��� But he makes sure he states that we don���t know.

CDC Website Suggests Adoption Alongside Abortion

There have been big changes (encouraging changes) made to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website. Shortly after President Trump���s inauguration, the CDC���s website went offline ���in order to comply with executive orders issued by Trump.��� And now if you search abortion, you will be prompted to ���try also: adoption.���

Do the Gal��pagos Islands Deserve to Be Icons of Evolution?

Few places in the world are as closely associated with Charles Darwin and evolution as a cluster of islands off the coast of Ecuador called the Gal��pagos.
