Things I have recently spotted that may
be of interest to someone else:
Christianity: Relevant lists five
things we shouldn't say to our pastors.
Relevant also offers, and rebuts, several
reasons why we don't volunteer.
Christianity Today reports that the government of Egypt is
claiming that, for
a Muslim, dying to protect a Christian church is worthy of martyrdom.
Computing: Wired has listed, with explanation, the
most dangerous people (or groups) on the internet.
Health: (sort of) Listverse describes
strange objects that have been removed from people's bodies. Very
strange objects.
Humor: (or something) National Public Radio reports
on Vanna White's 35th anniversary on Wheel of Fortune.
Politics: National Public Radio analyzes
the number, and significance, of the laws signed by President Donald Trump, and compares them to laws signed by previous Presidents in a
comparable period.
Science: Undark has posted an annotated
list of misleading claims about science, by various politicians,
during 2016,
Listverse gives summaries of the
histories of 10 interesting numbers. I learned a number of things
while reading this one.
I thank one of my brothers for suggesting some of these items!
Thanks for looking!

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.
