The Lord is the strength of his people...

Blessed be the Lord!
    For he has heard the voice of my pleas for mercy.
 The Lord is my strength and my shield;
    in him my heart trusts, and I am helped;
my heart exults,
    and with my song I give thanks to him.

 The Lord is the strength of his people;
    he is the saving refuge of his anointed.
 Oh, save your people and bless your heritage!
    Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
-Psalm 28:6-9

--------------Death cults--------------

Canada spearheads the global death cult  A nation with endless land and limitless potential is busying itself not with building a future but with perfecting the art of ending lives early and monetising the process. Canada could be the model of resilience, resourcefulness and growth. Instead, it is shaping up to be the poster child of a world where human beings are expendable and profit is paramount.

It is a key issue about the relation between the doctor and the patient. If assisted suicide becomes an option then many clinicians will stop looking for what else can be done to help a patient in distress.  There is a great difficulty in accurate diagnosis and prognosis. People may be at ‘end stage’ but survive for many more years.  Professor Taubert recalled that he had also seen patients completely misdiagnosed with a terminal condition ( including cancer) that was not the case.

Let’s not kid ourselves—this was never about fraud. It was about politics. Letitia James campaigned on “getting Trump.” She didn’t run on cleaning up Albany corruption or making New York a safer place to live. She ran on a vendetta. She promised to use her office to pursue one man and one man only, because her party feared he was the one obstacle to their hold on power.
   And Judge Engoron? He was her willing executioner.

--------------Conquering--------------



Breaking Texas: Georgetown Islamic Center’s Expansion Builds Sharia Enclave, Raising Children From Cradle to Imam to Pipeline Mosque Leaders Nationwide (Video) This “rapid growth” is not accidental. The United States continues to admit large numbers of Muslim immigrants and refugees each year, while higher birth rates within Muslim families accelerate expansion. The result is a built-in demographic engine that fuels demand for larger mosques, schools, and Islamic institutions.
    This was no longer about local prayer needs. It was about creating permanence: a seminary, a marketplace, youth facilities, and a leadership pipeline — all justified as sadaqah jariyah (eternal investment in Islam).

Global fertility decline sparks debate over future policy, as UK birth rates drop to unprecedented levels     The pressures being felt across the world are causing many governments to introduce measures to encourage parenthood – from subsidies in China to generous parental leave and child benefits in Europe – but Pew notes the evidence that such policies lift fertility is limited.

Landslide kills over 1,000 people and levels entire village in Sudan's Central Darfur  "Initial information indicates the death of all village residents, estimated to be more than one thousand people. Only one person survived," the Sudan Liberation Movement/Army said in a statement

---------------Drones-------------

Electromagnetic Weapon Destroys Drone Swarm In Seconds: 'Singularity Event'  Drones have quickly become all the rage among military leaders and Silicon Valley investors, but new weaponry could threaten the nascent technology’s swift rise

Thunderstruck on the Prairie: How Science and Sound Are Saving Cattle  Researchers from the USDA are patrolling prairie skies with drones, armed with speakers, playing everything from Angus Young's guitar riffs to Scarlett Johansson's screaming match with Adam Driver in the movie Marriage Story.
   It's easy to visualize being a wolf, so close to dinner, when out of nowhere, a flying box begins blasting a Hollywood divorce drama at 120 decibels.

---------------AI-------------

Let Me Google that For You...The AI threat to our humanity no one's talking about  While it is clear, then, that AI can be designed and used for good, I do worry that even its best, most productivity-boosting, most labor-saving uses may, if we are not careful, come at a very steep price. Can we design AI in a way that serves us without forgetting, in the process, how to serve one another?


A Single Typo in Your Medical Records Can Make Your AI Doctor Go Dangerously Haywire  That's what MIT researchers found in a June study currently awaiting peer review...

--------------Faith takes-------------

Whenever The World Mocks Prayer, Christians Should Pray Twice As Hard After tragedies such as we saw this past week, it’s become increasingly fashionable for people to say, “Now is not the time for prayer – it is the time for action!” To that I would say this: prayer is the highest form of Christian action and whenever the world discourages prayer, the Christian should pray twice as hard!
    Pray without ceasing! Pray that God would bring comfort and healing to our grieving neighbors, that he would bring us to repentance and deliver us from evil in all its forms, and that he would put the devil to flight through the preaching of his Word. Finally, pray that God’s name be hallowed and His divine will be done, that those who consider themselves our earthly enemies would instead become our brothers and sisters through saving faith in Jesus Christ. Read it all
