  “Riddles of Destiny” is a gripping saga blending ancient spiritual wisdom with cutting-edge technology. At its heart are Siddhanta Sarma, a sun-worshipping priest, and Gorak Agora, a sage of the secretive Aghori sect. Together, they face a formidable enemy who manipulates both the spiritual and technological realms. 
  The tale begins when Ranganna, a disciple of Gorak Aghora, accidentally unlocks the gates of hell, setting off a catastrophic chain of events that spans continents. Meanwhile, Father Francis finds himself entangled in the schemes of Lucian Wrathborne, a mastermind controlling the deadly Brain Activity Transformer (BAT)—a device capable of altering human behaviour remotely. 
  Above it all, SANI, a hijacked stealth satellite, becomes Lucian's all-seeing eye, orchestrating chaos from space. As the world teeters on the edge, Sarma and Aghora must unravel Lucian’s web of deceit, uncovering deeper cosmic truths. 
  “Riddles of Destiny” masterfully combines elements of spiritual lore with advanced technology, creating a narrative that explores fate, resilience, and the quest for truth.

  We all wonder whether planet Earth has been visited by aliens. Millions of people around the planet have seen them. But very few people can see what is happening on our moon. It is in fact a perfect place for aliens to use as a base for visiting us. Especially because the dark side of the moon cannot be observed by us. 
   
  Could it be that our secretive governments know about them? Has NASA come into contact with them? The fact is astronauts from several countries claim to have seen UFO’s on or near the moon. Even NASA astronauts have claimed in public that there was and is a government cover up. 
   
  So what is the truth? Are there aliens on the moon?

  The Grounds of Political Legitimacy

  Political decisions have the potential to greatly impact our lives. Think of decisions in relation to abortion or climate change, for example. This makes political legitimacy an important normative concern. But what makes political decisions legitimate? Are they legitimate in virtue of having support from the citizens? Democratic conceptions of political legitimacy answer in the affirmative. Such conceptions rightly highlight that legitimate political decision-making must be sensitive to disagreements among the citizens. 
   
   
   
  Peter argues that the legitimacy of political decisions doesn't just depend on respect for the citizens' will; and defends a novel hybrid conception of political legitimacy, called the Epistemic Accountability conception. According to this conception, political legitimacy also depends on how political decision-making responds to evidence for what there is most reason to do. The Grounds of Political Legitimacy starts with an overview of the main ways in which philosophers have thought about political legitimacy, and identifies the epistemic accountability conception as an overlooked alternative. Considering the norms that should govern political debate, it examines the role of experts in politics, and probes the responsibilities of democratically elected political leaders and as well as of citizens.

  Holy Temples of Jerusalem The:...

  There was not any one entity more central to the Yahwistic Judean religion during the monarchy than the temple of Solomon. It symbolized the presence of YHWH in the nation, as well as his enduring protection of the nation and the Davidic royal throne. Judean worshippers directed their prayers toward the Solomonic temple, and eventually, the Judean prophets and theologians declared that this was the only legitimate location where priests could perform sacrifices and other religious rites for YHWH. Its significance can be seen most clearly in the dramatic cognitive dissonance experienced by the Judeans in Babylonian captivity after the destruction of the temple, which had been so central to their religious conception that they had great difficulty reconciling its destruction with their continued belief in YHWH at all.  
  	Jerusalem was uninhabited for much of the 6th century B.C., and this period is known as the exile to Babylon, and Bible scholars believe that it was during those years that the Jewish people came into contact with several stories and legends that would later be incorporated into their sacred writings. A generation later, Achaemenid Persian Emperor Cyrus the Great allowed the Jews who so wished to return to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple and reestablish their nation.  
  	The reborn country, settled in the province called Yehud Medinata, survived semi-independently, although to a lesser extent than before, until it was again absorbed by the Greek kingdoms that arose after the conquests of Alexander the Great. After that, the Jews remained under the rule of the Hellenistic Seleucids, who ruled their Near Eastern kingdom from Mesopotamia, and occasionally under the rule of the Ptolemies, who reigned from Alexandria, Egypt. Eventually, though, a number of factors led to a Jewish revolt against Seleucid rule that started in 167 B.C. and came to be known as the Maccabean Revolt.
