New evidence suggests that galactic cosmic rays affect the Earth’s climate by increasing cloud cover
It turns out that the cosmic ray umbrella effect is geologically real. Thus it is valid to anticipate that a sunspot decline will drop global temperatures significantly. Better yet it turns out that a pole reversal dropped that temperature range by around 2 degrees. That strongly supports a one degree drop associated with a sun spot minima lasting decades. this all fits nicely into the little Ice Age and its apparent time lines. The effect is much more compelling than we had expected. Right now, we are seeing a down trend in general sunspot activity that is a decade on. Othe... more »

Doctors may soon be prescribing vegetables instead of drugs to prevent disease

Mueller Report: The Comic Book? The Screen Play? An Opera?
Every single member of Congress I know, has read the Mueller Report, carefully. But I don't think anyone else has! Interviewed by Jake Tapper last Sunday, Justin Amash said that he thinks that "less than 15%" of members (of both parties) had read the report. Yesterday, writing for *Business Insider*, Mark Bowden, author of *Black Hawk Down* and *Killing Pablo*, and illustrator Chad Hurd presented a kind of simplified version of the 448 page-- sometimes dull as dishwater-- Mueller Report. Their version is a gripping narrative meant to hold someone's-- even a congressmember's-- atte...more »

On The Frustrated and Clueless Atheists
The people who are the first to hop aboard the bandwagon of a philosophy which claims to possess the “one and only truth” are usually the frustrated and clueless atheists who feel alienated from their own culture and have started yearning for a new “god”. Their need for a new god is both psychological and spiritual. They want to lose their personal identity (and with it their frustrations and cluelessness) in a movement that provides them with the satisfaction of denying religion while assuming a godlike persona—of a being who is perfectly moral, perfectly intelligent, and full of k... more »
