FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND: “Though Americans today are more highly educated than ever before, they are not necessarily better educated.” Lisa Twui
QUOTE II “To science I say this . . .We ask you not why you will not govern yourselves, but how can you? Your world moves so fast that if you stop even for an instant to consider the implications of your actions, someone more efficient will whip past you in a blur. So you move one. You proliferate weapons of mass destruction, but it is
the Pope who travels the world beseeching leaders to use restraint. You clone living creatures, but it is the church reminding us to consider the moral implications of our actions. You encourage people to interact on phones, video screens, and computers, but it is the church who opens its doors and reminds us to commune in person as we were meant to do. You even murder unborn babies in the name of research that will save lives. Again, it is the church who points out the fallacy of this reasoning and all the while, you proclaim the church is ignorant. But who is more ignorant? The man who cannot define lightning, or the man who does not respect its awesome power?” from Dan Brown’s “Angels and Demons” h/t to Trevor

I think this was posted once before but it is so cool I'll do it again. T.G. sent this site to have a virtual tour of the Sistine Chapel.
T. K. sent this virtual tour of Walsh University. Here is their prayer garden.
R. A. sent this video to me through F. S. It's good for a chuckle.
