I just read a story about a Domino's employee who made 48 pizzas in 1 hour.
He was complaining that he gets paid the same no matter how many pizzas he makes. People responded, telling him to slow down – he is making the owner hundreds of dollars, and he is getting just his wages.
What people do not understand is this employee would receive his wage even if no one ordered a pizza. The owner is taking all of the risk, and the employee is taking no risk. The owner is paid for the risk he is taking. The employee is free to open his own business and take the same risk as the owner.
It's obvious our schools are failing at teaching capitalism.

Poisonous fruit
Regarding the Military Religious Freedom Foundation rants about the separation of church and state go, the group is merely another loud voice of deceit and lies.
If the Bible verse cannot be posted in government building as they say, other Bible verses cannot be practiced by the government. The government MRFF envisions is a country where lying, stealing, murders, adultery and covetousness are the right things to do, while justice and love are to be stayed away from. The group merely professes to be just, but its actual fruit is a poison. Jesus' words fit well: You will know them by their fruits.

Not a big leap
This article by Dr. Brown has many tangents to untangle ["The Greek word 'pharmakia' in Revelation 18"]. I shall not attempt to do so, but will offer a few points on the subject.
Some 20 years ago, the late Dr. Jack Van Impe enlightened me to the Greek work pharmakia. Clearly, the root of our modern word pharmacy is there. I took it to mean both legal and illegal drugs.
Sorcery or witchcraft sometimes involves the use of drugs. For centuries some witch might blow something like cocaine powder into the face of the intended victim to cast a narcotic spell. Drugs have been around for a long time.
Drugs are often used to manipulate, force, or coerce women into the (w)horrible life of prostitution. Therefore, associating the Whore of Babylon with either legal or illegal pharmaceuticals is not a very big leap.
Finally, many drugs simply fool the brain into thinking there is not a problem when in fact there is. That puts drugs into the realm of deception, and deception is a primary tool of Satan. For several reasons I am careful about putting even legal pharmaceuticals into my body.
In Christ Jesus,

Love, joy, health
Joseph: I have enjoyed and followed your site since its inception, when I did a basic news search and found it. (I think it was called something else at the beginning, right?) It is my go-to source for Christian and unbiased news; you don't cater to special interests.
I've also prayed for your health when I find out about your physical issues. May Jesus Christ strengthen you and bless you and your family with love, joy that only comes from knowing Him, and health in the next year. You are a blessing to many!

Castles in the sky
[Regarding "Astrology believers less intelligent, more narcissistic, study finds"] It's about time someone wrote an article like this. The only problem is that it did go far enough and deep enough. It should also include psychosis. Neurotics build castles in the sky, and psychotics live in them – and the old lady next door cleans them.
