Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to someone else:
Christianity: Relevant asks whether Christians should participate in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Christianity Today, and other sources, report on a survey as to whether people believe that humans have evolved or not.
Cliff Sims, evangelical Christian and former White House Staffer, was interviewed by Christianity Today. He said that, although he supports the President on many things, he does not believe that Trump is a born-again Christian.
He Lives has a good post on "Christians and gambling."
The Houston Chronicle reports on sexual abuse by Southern Baptist youth pastors. Anything but a pretty picture.
Environment: The much-reported spending bill, recently signed into law, includes establishment of a new US National Park, Indiana Dunes NP, according to USA Today.
Finance: Robert J. Samuelson says that not many retirees live in poverty, or are anxious about their finances.
Health: NPR reports that microbes living in insects may be a source of new germ-fighting drugs.
History: Listverse tells us about the accomplishments of 10 African-American women, most of whom you probably have never heard of.
Humor: (or something) NPR reports on speed dating on a ski resort chairlift. Really.
Politics: NPR reports that the national debt is higher than it has ever been, and will almost certainly rise more.
A report in Scientific American on research that suggests that both left- and right-wing people are susceptible to Fake News.
Catherine Rampell suggests that we abolish Congress, and says why.
Science: Listverse reports on 10 interesting facts about frogs and toads.
The graphic used in these posts is from NASA, hence, I believe, it is public domain.
Thanks for looking!
