We begin with a shameful delivery of the Aachen Peace Prize to an American queer sex shop and point out the hypocritical conduct of big churches towards the AfD and those people voting for the party. We also discuss syncretism within the Catholic Church.
We speak on further frictions between the USA and France and continue with deeply disturbing reports about Israel; the dubious nuclear deal between the USA and Saudi-Arabia; and the demand to know where the money from Venezuela ended up in the US.
We speak on further developments on America’s lost war in Iran; and Trump’s goal to impose tariffs on many countries without any evidence, reason or legitimacy.
We conclude with a horrible example of IRS misconduct against innocent American citizens, and how the American Police State gets away with murder.

Many may use these phrases without even thinking about where they came from and many may be atheists or agnostics anyway. Some who may never have even opened the pages of the Bible may be surprised how many phrases contained in the Word of God have become everyday phrases in our society.
In one internet forum, a contributor observed that “In general the bible is ignored by modern society. It is ignored largely because people think its moral standards and helpful counsel is hopelessly out of date. Most people want to live their lives without anyone telling them what to do, or what not to do. That has not changed since the Garden of Eden.” These are just some of the reasons why some never read or consult the Word of God.
