Along with all the information aforementioned, I contend that what Amos 3:7 spoke of is of the greatest signs: (Amos 3:7) For the Lord God doth nothing without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets. The prophetic consensus within the Catholic messengers has never been so profound as it has been in the past 25 years.
In spite of all of the attacks, the misinformation, the heresies, and the abandonment by the church heirarchy, I believe that the Body of Christ is growing and is strengthened by the Spirit. Look at the power and light that this forum provides us with, the friends and teachers, and the information stream that is still available to us. The greatest comfort to me is that we are not alone.
https://www.jpost.com/Diaspora/Jewish-Americans-are-now-the-face-of-Trump-resistance-571399 Jewish Americans are now the face of Trump resistance 79% of Jewish voters chose Democrats, only 17% supported Republicans. Down nearly 10% in two short, if eventful years WASHINGTON - They plan to conduct hearings on his foreign policy, lead oversight into his administration, subpoena his closest aides, investigate his family and run against him in 2020. In large numbers, American Jews are becoming the face of a Democratic resistance against US President Donald Trump by assuming critical chairmanships in the House of Representatives and preparing campaigns for the White House. They are voting against him in record numbers. In midterm elections on Tuesday, 79% of Jewish voters chose Democrats, according to exit polls conducted by Pew Research Center and CNN. Only 17% supported Republicans– down nearly 10% in two short, if eventful years. And they are getting elected. Across the country, 30 Jewish Americans were elected or reelected to the House– only two of which are Republicans– and four to the Senate, just shy of marking record-high Jewish representation on Capitol Hill. Democrats' sole pickup seat from Republicans in the Senate, in Nevada, was Jacky Rosen, formerly president of her synagogue congregation. What, if anything, does their Judaism have to do with their politics? Statistics would suggest quite a bit. A majority of American Jews have voted for progressive candidates and causes in elections since at least 1984, when record-keeping began on Jewish voter patterns, and when roughly 7 in 10 community members began reliably voting Democratic– a direct response to a Republican alignment with evangelical Christians that appeared at the time hostile to Jews and their pluralistic values. Those same political elements that drove Jewish Americans to the left in the 1980s are doing so, with renewed vigor, over three decades later. The Jewish constituency amounts to a loose, otherwise diverse coalition squarely opposed to policies hostile to minority protections, social welfare and equal justice. To American Jews, Trump appears a threat to those values today. A poll released last month by the Jewish Electorate Institute found that 70% of the community disapproves of Trump's handling of a spike in antisemitism nationwide– and even fewer approve of his foreign policy or his approach to immigration, gun safety, the environment, healthcare or his Supreme Court nominations. Three out of four rule out voting for him under any circumstances. But if votes in Florida on Tuesday are any indication, their opposition to the Republican Party in its current construction may not be enough to reverse its gains. The state's two most important, most expensive races– for governor and a Senate seat– both drew to near ties, but broke for GOP candidates. And this was in an election that appeared to include high Jewish turnout. In Broward County, for example, one of the most heavily-populated Jewish communities in the country, incumbent Democratic congressman Ted Deutsch won by a larger percentage than any of his recent predecessors, breaking into the 60% percentile. Taking control of the House, Jewish members will now count among top congressional leadership and serve as the public face of some of the nation's most closely-watched hearings and investigations. It is expected that Jerrold Nadler of New York will head the House Judiciary Committee, Nita Lowey of New York the Appropriations Committee, Eliot Engel of New York the Foreign Relations Committee and Adam Schiff of California the Intelligence Committee. Those committees will transform into battlegrounds for the Trump presidency in January, once the new Congress is sworn in. As early as Tuesday night, these four members were previewing their plans to subpoena the president and his aides for his tax returns and for documents on his family business ties overseas. They are likely to investigate the president's handling of hurricane response in Puerto Rico last year, his policy of separating migrant families at the border and his relationship with Moscow. They may also examine the president's payments to Stormy Daniels, a porn star and his alleged mistress before entering the White House, as well as his firing of former FBI Director James Comey. They could look at ethics compliance of his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, at Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's business dealings, at the use of personal email for government business by White House staff, administration-backed voter suppression efforts, and at the politicization of scientific study at the Environmental Protection Agency. Overall, the future chairs vow to provide checks on the president following two years of a Republican-controlled House that offered little in terms of oversight. Immediately after Trump fired his attorney general, Jeff Sessions, on Wednesday, appointing an interim figure who has vocally criticized a probe into Russian election interference he will now oversee, Nadler promised House action. "Americans must have answers immediately as to the reasoning behind @realDonaldTrump removing Jeff Sessions from @TheJusticeDept," wrote Nadler. "Why is the President making this change and who has authority over Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation? We will be holding people accountable." So, too, did Schiff, who has been an aggressive ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee and is expected to pick up its own Russia investigation where Republicans had left it off. "President Trump just removed Jeff Sessions. He wants an Attorney General to serve his interest, not the public," Schiff said. "Mueller's investigation and the independence of the DOJ must be protected. Whitaker and any nominee must commit to doing both. We will protect the rule of law." But while probes emanating from their committees are sure to attract attention– and shape future electoral prospects for the Democratic Party– so too will an emerging field of Jewish contenders for the presidency, likely to include entrepreneur and former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg; Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti; former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz; and Sanders, among others. All of these figures enter the spotlight in an environment exceptionally hostile to Jews, where white nationalism and neo-Nazism is measurably on the rise. "I am concerned that under Trump, this country has become more divided along racial, ethnic and religious lines, and that's because of the vitriol that some of his supporters have espoused," Halie Soifer, the newly-appointed executive director of Jewish Democratic Council of America, told The Jerusalem Post this fall. "I would like to think that the country is ready for a Jewish candidate, but to the extent we aren't, of course there is concern that there's a rise in antisemitism. And his past rhetoric raises concern that this may become an issue going forward in 2020." Declining to comment on any one potential candidate, Soifer did express worry that Jewish figures serving as the face of Trump resistance could backfire against the party– and the community– at such a politically divisive moment. "I think its still very early– there are lots of names out there," Soifer said. "But it would be great to have Jewish candidates. I would like to think today that the fact that candidates are Jewish are less important than if they represent Jewish values– a woman's right to choose, support for Israel, gun control. That's what is really important." "But its really about being able to defeat Donald Trump," Soifer added.
It seems to strange to me that some Evangelical Protestants might try to force God's Hand by having the Temple rebuilt. I find it difficult to see why they would wish this and why they would think if acceptable to God that they should try to do so. It reminds me of the Book of Eclesiastes that theere is a time for everything under the sun. Like the Early Chrisitans we cna pray Marana the, come Lord Jesus and in the Our Father we pray, 'Thy Kingdon come', but this is different than trying to organise it through building a Temple. I think this is human thinking rathe rthan Spiritual. It is the same with the supposed , 'Rapture'. It is human thinking. Un spiritual.
Gosh....they're ("values") "beginning" (been there a while) to look like Catholics ("values")! But then JFK was a saint in the minds of even religious and it's traveled downward since then!

True? Smartphones raising a mentally fragile generation SAN DIEGO (AFP) - San Diego State University psychology professor Jean Twenge sees smartphones and social media as raising an unhappy, compliant "iGen." QUESTION: What is the iGen? ANSWER: The iGen is the generation born in 1995 and later, and they're the first generation to spend their entire adolescence in the age of the smartphone. They spend a lot more time online, on social media and playing games, and they spend less time on non-screen activities like reading books, sleeping or seeing their friends in face-to-face interactions. Those children are growing up more slowly. By the age of 18, they are less likely to have a driver's licence, to work in a paying job, to go out on dates, to drink alcohol or to go out without their parents compared to teens in previous generations. So iGen's probably the safest generation in history and they like that idea of feeling safe. Yet, they also have the sense that they are missing out on something. They realize that being on the phone all the time is probably not the best way to live. They don't like it when they're talking to a friend and their friend is looking at their phone. Many of them have a recognition of the downsides of that type of living as well. QUESTION: You have researched the behavior and health of millions of teenagers. What have you observed? ANSWER: Around 2011 and 2012, I started to see more sudden changes to teens, like big increases of teens feeling lonely or left out, or that they could not do anything right, that their life was not useful, which are classic symptoms of depression. Depressive symptoms have climbed 60 percent in just five years, with rates of self-harm like cutting (themselves) that have doubled or even tripled in girls. Teen suicide has doubled in a few years. Right at the time when smartphones became common, those mental health issues started to show up. That change in how teens spend their time is so fundamental for mental health. We know, from decades of research, that getting enough sleep and seeing friends in person is a good recipe for mental health and that staring at a screen for many hours a day is not. QUESTION: What advice would you give to parents? ANSWER: Many of the things on which happiness and mental health depend are now under our control. We cannot change the genes we were born with and we are not going to solve poverty overnight, but we can control how we spend our leisure time and we can help our children do the same. The research points toward limiting digital media use to about two hours a day or less. That seems to be the sweet spot for mental health and happiness. So sure, use social media to stay in touch with friends, help plan things, and watch a little bit of video but keep it under that two-hour limit for 13- to 18-year-olds. Then you get all the benefits of social media and this technology without the big downside of it. If you feel your child needs a phone, say for getting back and forth to school, you can get them a "dumb" phone that does not have internet and all the temptations of a smartphone. https://www.france24.com/en/20181113-smartphones-raising-mentally-fragile-generation

https://mysticpost.com/2018/11/nasa-warns-lack-of-sunspots-to-bring-record-cold/ NASA WARNS: Lack of sunspots to bring record cold. ““The sun is entering one of the deepest Solar Minima of the Space Age,” November 13, 2018 ryanmysticpost 22 Views 0 Comments “It could happen in a matter of months,” says Martin Mlynczak of NASA’s Langley Research Center. ________________ “The sun is entering one of the deepest Solar Minima of the Space Age,” wrote Dr Tony Phillips just six weeks ago, on 27 Sep 2018. Sunspots have been absent for most of 2018 and Earth’s upper atmosphere is responding, says Phillips, editor of spaceweather.com. Data from NASA’s TIMED satellite show that the thermosphere (the uppermost layer of air around our planet) is cooling and shrinking, literally decreasing the radius of the atmosphere. To help track the latest developments, Martin Mlynczak of NASA’s Langley Research Center and his colleagues recently introduced the “Thermosphere Climate Index.” The Thermosphere Climate Index (TCI) tells how much heat nitric oxide (NO) molecules are dumping into space. During Solar Maximum, TCI is high (meaning “Hot”); during Solar Minimum, it is low (meaning “Cold”). “Right now, it is very low indeed … 10 times smaller than we see during more active phases of the solar cycle,” says Mlynczak The Thermosphere Climate Index by Mlynczak and colleagues. Displays times of Cold, Cool, Neutral, Warm, and Hot since 1940. Record cold in a matter of months “If current trends continue, it could soon set a Space Age record for cold,” says Mlynczak. “We’re not there quite yet, but it could happen in a matter of months.” The TIMED satellite monitoring the temperature of the upper atmosphere
These people crack me up. A space record for cold? THE HORROR!! How long have we been keeping track of sunspots and the temperatures near the firmament anyway? Give me a break!
Another side effect of man's driving of global climate change... (just kidding...) And Don_D, we've been keeping track for over a century and a half, more so with the advent of radio since sunspots influence radio reception and the link discovered between global climate and sunspots. Remember Dickens' descriptions of winter in his books? He wrote those during a period of very low number of sunspots. It was so cold someone brought an elephant out to the middle of the Thames to show how thick the ice was. So BION, this is something we need to be keeping an eye on.
http://spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=28&month=09&year=2018 17 whole years, if you only count data systematically collected on a global basis. Not even two 11 year solar cycles. Yet they extrapolate (guess) back hundreds of years based on a dubious correlation between sunspots and temperatures at the earth's surface recorded in a small part of Europe by less than scientific methods. The ego of the scientists is breathtaking. From the disastrous 1972 "Limits to growth" ( first computerized global study) to The Global 2000 Report to the President published in 1980, to the myriad of far reaching computerized extrapolations today, we see how far afield scientists can get when they try to explain global trends based on a tiny bit of data. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Ice_Age
UFO sightings by commercial pilots probed by Irish authorities November 13, 2018 By Amy Lieu | Fox News | https://www.foxnews.com/science/ufos-spotted-by-pilots-saying-there-were-very-bright-lights-report A British Airways pilot on Friday reported the sighting of an unidentified flying object off the southwest coast of Ireland, that was described as a "bright light" that came alongside his aircraft and "rapidly veered to the north," the BBC reported. The pilot contacted Shannon air traffic control to check if there were military exercises and was told that there were no exercises in the area, the report said. Another pilot said the speed was “astronomical, it was like Mach 2,” which is twice the speed of sound, the report said. Another pilot in a Virgin plane theorized that the lights could have been a meteor or another object re-entering the earth’s atmosphere. He also observed “two bright lights” to his right which “climbed away at speed,” the BBC reported. “Glad it wasn’t just me,” another pilot said, according to The Irish Times. The Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) is investigating the reports. "Following reports from a small number of aircraft on Friday 9th November of unusual air activity the IAA has filed a report," the IAA explained, in a statement emailed to Fox News. "This report will be investigated under the normal confidential occurrence investigation process." A spokesman for the IAA told The Irish Times that the UFOs were unlikely to be aliens from another planet. Shannon Airport declined to comment when contacted by Fox News. "As the incident is under investigation by the IAA it wouldn’t be appropriate for us to comment," said a spokeswoman, in an emailed statement. Fox News' James Rogers contributed to this article. *** Multiple Pilots Report UFO: ‘We Saw A Bright Light And It Just Disappeared’ Several bright objects were seen traveling quickly in the skies off the coast of Ireland. November 13, 2108 By Ed Mazza | https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/ufo-sighting-ireland_us_5bea5762e4b044bbb1a7bea9 Several commercials airline pilots reported a series of fast-moving unidentified objects in the skies off the west coast of Ireland last week in an incident now under investigation. One pilot said the object or objects were traveling at “astronomical” speeds of at least Mach 2, or twice the speed of sound, The Irish Times reported. The incident began when a British Airways pilot flying from Montreal to London’s Heathrow Airport contacted Shannon Air Traffic Control in Ireland to ask if there were any military aircraft in the vicinity. When told there was no such aircraft, the pilot said something had moved “so fast” past the aircraft. “Errr... alongside you?” the air traffic controller asked. The pilot replied that two objects had approached on the left and then “rapidly” veered toward the north. “We saw a bright light and it just disappeared at a very high speed,” she said. A Virgin Airlines flight from Orlando to Manchester, UK, then reported “two bright lights” that “seemed to bank over to the right and then climb away at speed.” The pilot described “a meteor or another object making some kind of reentry, appears to be multiple objects following the same sort of trajectory, very bright from where we were.” Then, a third pilot chimed in. “Glad it wasn’t just me,” the Norwegian Air pilot flying from Stewart Airport in New York to Shannon, Ireland said. “No, uh, yeah very interesting that one,” the Virgin Airlines pilot replied. https://twitter.com/IrishAero/status/1061669444093730820 The British Airways flight was a Boeing 787, the Virgin aircraft was a Boeing 747 and the Norwegian Air flight was a Boeing 737, The Irish Examiner reported. According to the BBC, the Irish Aviation Authority is now investigating the reports of “unusual air activity.” A spokesperson for Shannon Airport told the broadcaster that there would be no comment until that investigation was complete. At least one expert said he knows what the object was ― and it wasn’t a UFO. David Moore, head of Astronomy Ireland, told the Irish Times that he was “1,000 percent sure” it was a meteorite and had received at least four reports of a fireball from people on the country’s west coast. His organization also noted the sighting at the time on Facebook. “We had some reports of a massive fireball this morning!” Astronomy Ireland wrote on Friday. That report said it was moving “quite slow” and noted that it “broke up into several pieces.” In response to a question about the UFO sighting, the organization wrote that a fireball breaking up “really does look like a fleet of aircraft/UFO’s (sic) flying by.” *** https://twitter.com/flightradar24/status/1062388825735999488
https://www.reddit.com/r/Archaeology/comments/3dpx5m/ad_536_the_year_that_winter_never_ended/ AD 536: The year that winter never ended In the year 536 the sun dimmed and the world shivered, leading to famine, plague and the fall of empires. New clues point to an double-whammy apocalypse "The sun began to be darkened by day and the moon by night, while the ocean was tumultuous with spray from the 24th of March in this year till the 24th of June in the following year... And, as the winter was a severe one, so much so that from the large and unwonted quantity of snow the birds perished... there was distress... among men... from the evil things" Zacharias of Mytilene (Chronicle, 9.19, 10.1) THE year is AD 536, and Byzantine historian Procopius of Caesarea has just arrived in southern Italy. The balance of power in the Mediterranean is in flux: Vandals had sacked Rome in 455 and the Western Roman Empire had fallen in 476. Justinian I, the Byzantine (or Eastern Roman) Emperor, is determined to reclaim the lost territories. After a successful campaign against the North African Vandal Kingdom in the early 530s, Justinian dispatches his army to retake Italy. Yet as Procopius records, something odd then happened. The sun dimmed, and the dimness lasted for more than a year. There were frosts and snows in the middle of summer – the winter never really ended. From Italy to Ireland, China to Central America, the year 536 was the beginning of a decade-long cold snap beset by turmoil. Religions lost believers, cities collapsed and one of the greatest plagues in history killed a quarter of the population in the Byzantine Empire. Justinian's armies did manage to retake Rome, but his weakened empire was overstretched, and soon lost the territory again. In almost every region of the world, this period was marked with bad weather, social disorder – and death. This climatic downturn may well have profoundly altered the course of history. The trigger of this cooling has long been a mystery, but now we may finally be close to identifying the culprit – or culprits. The first evidence of the AD 536 event came from a study in the 1980s by two NASA geologists, Richard Stothers and Michael Rampino. They trawled through early historical accounts looking for references to volcanic eruptions around the Mediterranean. They concluded that there had been at least seven major eruptions before AD 630, including the one in AD 79 that buried the town of Pompeii. Yet while there were four accounts – including that of Procopius – of an 18-month-long period of unusually dim skies, beginning around AD 536, there were no direct references to a volcanic eruption at this time. Stothers and Rampino concluded that the cause must have been a massive volcanic eruption thousands of miles from Europe. This was certainly plausible. The eruption of the Indonesian volcano of Tambora in 1815, after all, was followed by a "year without a summer" across the northern hemisphere (and may have given us Frankenstein and bicycles). The historical accounts suggested that 536 was much more severe than 1816, but could they be trusted? "All of the ancient texts could be quibbled with," says Michael Baillie at Queen's University Belfast, UK. But with his help, an impartial witness to the 6th century events broke its silence in the late 1980s. Baillie studies tree rings and, using oak preserved in Irish bogs, he and his colleagues put together a tree-ring record stretching back more than 7000 years. In 1988, they reported that during the first millennium AD, the narrowest tree rings – indicating poor growing conditions and cold temperatures – occurred within a few years of 536. "There was a sign in the sun the like of which had never been seen and reported before... The sun became dark and its darkness lasted for eighteen months. Each day it shone for about four hours, and still this light was only a feeble shadow. Everyone declared that the sun would never recover its full light. The fruits did not ripen and the wine tasted like sour grapes" Michael the Syrian (Chronicle, 9.296) More tree-ring data followed from other groups, and a pattern emerged. "The narrow tree rings weren't just in European oak. They were in Scandinavian pines, and in trees from North and South America," says Baillie. "This pretty much had to be a global event." But there was something missing. As volcanic ash and sulphur particles wash out of the atmosphere, they leave traces in the ice forming near the poles. During the 1980s, ice cores from Greenland were revealing evidence of many previously unknown eruptions, including a particularly massive one in 1257. There was, however, no volcanic signature in ice formed around 536. The tree rings were also revealing something unexpected. Despite the emphasis that the historical accounts placed on 536, the tree-ring record suggested growing conditions were awful in the years following 540 as well. In fact, the tree rings showed that the cold snap continued for a decade. It is very unusual for an eruption to trigger a decade of cooling, says Baillie, because the ash and sulphur-rich particles thrown into the atmosphere by a volcano should wash out again within a few years. The findings got Baillie rethinking the source of the trouble. "Stothers and Rampino saw the event as evidence of a volcanic eruption, but perhaps there was another explanation," says Baillie When he found obscure references to unusual partial eclipses in north-west Europe in 538 and 540, Baillie began to wonder whether the source of the trouble was not volcanic but extraterrestrial. In 1994, shortly before fragments of the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 ploughed into Jupiter, he suggested that dust from a comet that had passed near Earth – or even collided with our planet – could explain both the unusually long climatic downturn and the lack of a volcanic signature. In a 1999 book, Baillie went further, suggesting that several major climatic changes in the past 10,000 years were triggered by impacts. He speculated about links with a broad range of historical and even mythical events, including the death of King Arthur. The plague of Justinian What is certain is that the years following 536 were eventful. In China, for instance, the Northern Wei dynasty collapsed around this time. "There's written evidence that about 75 per cent of people died because of cold, crop failure, starvation and droughts," says Payson Sheets, an archaeologist at the University of Colorado in Boulder. "There was political and religious turmoil." In Central America, the population of the huge city state of Teotihuacan also declined. "The exact dating is up for debate, but by around 550, the people there were deliberately burning the temples on the top of their step-pyramids," says Sheets. "They had lost faith in their rulers' abilities to act as intermediaries between people and their gods." And just as Justinian was reconquering the Eastern Roman Empire, his subjects began dropping like flies. By 542, Procopius was lamenting what is now known as the Plague of Justinian – an early form of bubonic plague – which he said was claiming 10,000 lives each day at its peak. Were all these disparate events triggered by global cooling? Baillie thinks they might have been. For instance, the Plague of Justinian could have been an indirect result of food shortages throughout Eurasia, which led to the mass movement of people and disease-carrying rodents. "People were exposed to pathogens they were unfamiliar with," he says. "Plague broke out and spread – it's the classic Black Death scenario." Proving that specific historical events were triggered by climate change is nigh on impossible, but painstaking studies by David Zhang of the University of Hong Kong have shown that there is a strong link between cooler periods and famine, plague, mass migrations, social turmoil and even wars (New Scientist, 4 August 2012, p 32). "I believe it is possible that the decadal-scale cooling in 530s and 540s could have caused epidemics," Zhang says. "Not only because of the migrations, but also because famine caused poor health among populations."
Doesn't it usually go from the animal to the human? Farm animals may soon get new features through gene editing ....... Also in development are dairy cows that could withstand higher temperatures, so the animals don’t suffer in hotter climates. Recombinetics and others say gene-editing techniques do what traditional breeding has always done, except much faster and with the precision of “molecular scissors.” They are waiting for clarity from government officials , but say meat and milk from gene-edited animals shouldn’t be subject to special regulations. https://www.apnews.com/f628e7c65c794995b19977b7c1cdc10c
When I read about the nonsense that both the Jews and the Fundamentalist/Evangelical Christians teach in regards to rebuilding of the temple, I feel fortunate to understand what they are looking for has already occurred and the temple has been rebuilt. It is the Roman Catholic Church. www.godspeakswillyoulisten.org 11/6/07 Many teach the physical nation of Israel is the fulfillment of my scripture. Many teach the Antichrist will resume the Jewish sacrifice in a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem to constitute the abomination of desolation. This is a false teaching, not from God, but from human understanding. My son, in the book of Daniel, the persecution by the Jews under Antiochus can be considered a partial fulfillment of the abomination of desolation. But the complete fulfillment has not yet taken place. At my death, the veil in the temple was rent in two and the old sacrificial covenant was replaced by my new covenant. My sacrifice on the cross was the final sacrifice for my peoples’ sin. I am the fulfillment of the promise to Abraham. I am the seed of Abraham, the son of David, in whom all the nations of the earth are blessed. My nation of Israel is my church, not the modern nation of Israel. My people are now all those who become part of my church through sanctifying grace. The complete fulfillment of the prophecy from Daniel of the abomination of desolation will occur: when the continual sacrifice of the mass is abolished by the False Prophet and the Anitchrist. Acceptance of the protestant doctrine of the mass by an anti-pope will be the fulfillment of the prophecy. The temple of God is my Holy Roman Catholic Church.
