Sunspots 785


Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to
someone else:

Christianity:The head of the Southern Baptist Convention made a speech praising diversity in his denomination, but pointed out that there was a lot of room for improvement, according to Christianity Today.

Relevant reports on a poll, which says that about one-fourth of Americans see President Trump as a man of faith.

Christianity Today goes back to the topic of Christians and conspiracy theories.

Computing: Gizmodo reports that Twitter recently deleted 170,000 accounts, because they were pumping out propaganda for the Chinese government. Apparently, however, not many people were paying attention.

Gizmo's Freeware points to a site with all sorts of free calendars.


Environment: Gizmodo reports that sea otter populations, in the Pacific Northwest, should be encouraged to increase.

Health: NPR reports that some experts believe that COVID-19 may be around for a long time.\
So does Gizmodo.

History: (or something) Listverse discusses some conspiracy theories that refuse to die.

Science: Science magazine reports that scientists have put various cell parts together to make an artificial system that carries out photosynthesis.

Sports: FiveThirtyEight says that Maya Moore, who left the WNBA of her own accord, to pursue social justice (overturning the conviction of an innocent man), gave up more than any other athlete gave up for a cause. (I have learned, from a reliable source, that Ms. Moore has been appointed head coach of the men's basketball team at a small college.)

Thanks for looking!
