The Origin of the First Man and the Mysteries of History - Between Science and Faith

Agatino Mezzatesta

Beschreibung

The modern age has generated a huge number of different opinions, creating great wealth of ideas but also great confusion and uncertainty. It becomes more and more difficult to discover the truth in a sea of possibilities. For example, there is still a clear contrast between the claims of science, now supported by molecular biology and genetics, and those of theology, which currently accepts also theistic evolutionary theory in human development. The aim of this essay is to seek truth from man's origin, in an attempt to recognize the Spirit of Truth amid the chaos caused today by a continuous proliferation of groundless information. To do this it is necessary to understand the historical, philosophical and as much as possible also scientific context of the specific civilizations of the period being examined, in order to give the right value to certain events, especially if of a spiritual nature. On the other hand, it will be important not to insist yet on what some modern historians now call the history of short duration, that which has prevailed until now (made of battles, dates, wars and events that have had little importance in the long time, also putting above all their own nation always at the center of events). This is the history of successive civilizations, with its moments of splendor and decline: it is in the name of the authenticity of events therefore that, although Science and Faith have at their base different motivations and methods of investigation, both must contribute to the search for truth, hoping for a reconciliation that allows us to reconstruct better and better not only the true history of humanity, but also a meditated gospel and incarnate in the modern world.

The Darkness Has Not Overcome -...

Cliff Sims

Former special assistant to President Trump, New York Times bestselling author, and evangelical Christian Cliff Sims shares the lessons he learned on faith, politics, and the Christian witness while working in the halls of power. American life today is consumed by politics. Even our churches are tearing themselves apart over political candidates, cultural flashpoints, and debates about whether certain pastors are vessels for the Holy Spirit or an unholy political agenda. So how should Christians approach our lives in this time of strife and division? How should we engage in politics and respond when we find that our beliefs are at odds with the culture? And how do we keep our focus on eternity when the present attractions of the world are there in front of us at every turn? Cliff Sims, the son of a Baptist minister and man of deep Christian faith, has walked the halls of power, serving as a Special Assistant to President Trump and Deputy Director of National Intelligence. While working at the highest levels of the American government, he experienced firsthand the cutthroat world of power politics, an environment that can test the character of any follower of Jesus, and he wrestled continually with how to live out his faith. In this book, Cliff shares hard-earned wisdom from his time serving in government, giving Christians lessons on how to live faithfully and with integrity. Recounting stories from the West Wing, Air Force One, and top secret bunkers, Sims offers practical advice and biblical insight on how to let the light of Christ shine in our dark world, regardless of our politics. The Darkness Will Not Overcome is a must-read for every Christian who has found themselves exasperated by politics, fearful about the future, or discouraged by the times in which we live.

State of the Union 1982

Ronald Reagan

In the 1982 State of the Union address on January 26, 1982, Reagan invokes his self-deprecating humor and calls for “a new spirit of partnership between this Congress and this administration”. Reagan cites the “stagflation” of the 1970s: double digit inflation, interest rates over 21%, and over 8 million unemployed.  
Reagan notes economic improvement and calls for reduced federal spending, further tax reductions, and fewer regulations, saying our economic problems “are the inheritance of decades of tax and tax and spend and spend.”  
Reagan calls for dismantling the Departments of Energy and Education but keeping a reliable safety net for those in need by rooting out waste and fraud in the food stamp, Medicare, and Medicaid programs. Reagan decries the growth in federal grant programs to state and local governments and calls for major reforms. 
A short paragraph was lost at 23:15 of the Ronald Reagan presidential library recording. The missing words can be seen in the text version. 
In meetings with foreign leaders, Reagan “spoke of the strength of the free marketplace system and how that system could help them realize their aspirations for economic development and political freedom.” Reagan endorses sanctions against the Soviet Union for its actions in Poland and Afghanistan, and urges “that we rebuild our defenses.”  
Reagan concludes with a call to work together to preserve “the sacred flame of liberty -- this last, best hope of man on Earth.” This address followed the assassination attempt and the applause at the start and end was extensive.
