Multiple people stabbed on Aucklands North Shore
Although there have been multiple people stabbed on Aucklands North Shore this morning, this will probably be the last we read hear of it in the news. Nothing to do with the religion of peace. Just as in London, this is now part of ordinary NZ culture. Allah Akbar.This from stuff:Emergency services have rushed to East Coast Bays on Auckland’s North Shore, where a number of people have been injured on Thursday.A person is in custody and is assisting police with inquiries.Stuff understands multiple people have been stabbed.A lady on her morning walk with a dog said a man in a hoodie came out of Seaton Ave and began stabbing people.The man chased after a 17-year-old girl who screamed, she said.“We thought she was being silly, she was shrieking.“He stabbed two people, totally random... it all happened very quickly,” she said.She was only 20 metres away from the man at one point.She said...
Science as Bad Religion Part 3
Science as Bad Religion Part 3by Asa BoxerThis is part 3 of a 4 part breakdown of the first chapter of a book I'm working on the trouble with institutionalised science misbehaving and straying from its promise to deliver a secular world of freedom and pluralism. This chapter is a case study of the false covid scare and how such behaviour is typical of what the rational world has come to associate with the failures of institutionalised religion. What seems to be more true is that the problem has less to do with the paradigm and more to do with the institution and types of folk who come to run them. In this part 3 we take up where we left off last time discussing the H1N1 false alarm of 2009 and how the WHO managed to redefine the term "pandemic" -- and how this was followed by another Orwellian move to redefine the term "vaccine." We left off noting how experimental the vaccines were...
George’s Advice
George’s Advice Dear Friends,An old friend of mine once gave me some sage advice, advice that while free, was worth a king’s ransom. George was smarter than a whip. In fact, you could say the man was a genius in his own right. The way I met him was that he went to the same church as I did and through the grape vine I found out he was a sawyer. I had need of sawing done so I called him and we became friends. George had worked at IBM and had risen to high station, without credentials or letters, but by outsmarting the engineers he competed with who did. We were loading lumber on my pickup when he stopped and gave me a deep look. I halted to listen to what he had to say. He explained that he and his wife had planned on getting a motor home and traveling the US when he retired. They had everything planned out, except…I was chatting with George one time when he was sawing some hard maple....
SPECIAL WEEKEND THOUGHT: 👉 Guarding God's Heart 📖
“The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? ‘I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward each person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve.’” (Jeremiah 17:9-10 NIV)“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” (Proverbs 4:23 NIV) “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.” (Ezekiel 36:26 NIV)“Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.” (Psalm 51:10 NIV)In our culture today, there is the idea that one should follow their heart. While it sounds like a great idea, following your heart only makes sense to people who are young or naïve. For those who have a few more years of life experience, many can look back and realize that many of their mistakes came from the...
20220622: Faith And Free Will
Hypothetical: You are an atheist and are sitting out back on your porch enjoying a fine summer evening. The sun has just set and a large, beautiful moon is high in the sky. Suddenly, to one side of the moon and as large, appears a head-and-shoulders of an ancient-looking man, just like the stereotypical depiction of God the Father you see in Medieval art: long, white hair and beard; halo; etc. His hand appears out of nowhere and grabs the Earth, stopping it; yet no one dies, no earthquakes or any damage one would expect from the Earth suddenly stopping. He then starts the Earth back up (again, no damage) and you and everyone on Earth hear in your mind "So that you may believe" in your native language. He then fades from view. Scientists later report that the rest of the Universe now appears to be 30 seconds "ahead" of where we should be. As an atheist, your first thought might...
