Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
Christianity: Benjamin L. Corey argues that a Christian pacifist, and/or
a
Christian who refuses to use a gun on others, is not, therefore, a coward.
FiveThirtyEight reports on a study that says that as
much as 25% of the US population may be atheists, although most of
them don't identify themselves as such.
Christianity Today analyzes the influence of theologian Reinhold Niebuhr on James Comey, the recently fired head of the FBI, and on other prominent public figures.
Computing: Pro Publica reports that some Trump
properties, including Mar-a-Lago, used by the President and other important figures, have networks that could easily be hacked. Wired has more on this.
Open Broadcaster Software is a free tool for recording and live streaming video.
The Conversation argues that banning
laptops on airplanes would do little to increase security.
Listverse discusses the origin of 10 fonts currently in use.
Politics: Scientific American reports that the
Republican governors of Vermont and Massachusetts are seriously concerned about the current and future effects of global warming,
and are urging the Trump administration to continue trying to slow it down.
FiveThirtyEight gives a thorough analysis of the likelihood of President Trump being removed from office by the Congress.
Science: The History Blog reports
on a fossil Nodosaur.
Scientific American reports that plants
may be able to hear.

Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.
