Donald Trump’s presidency is imploding. His response to the violent demonstrations by Neo-Nazis and White Nationalists, with a counter-protest against them, last week in Charlottsville, Virginia, is another disaster. His three speeches about it so far are being rendered inadequate by a large majority of U.S. citizens. Many are concluding the president revealed that he is somewhat of a racist. For the self-proclaimed master of deal-making in his book, The Art of the Deal, that is a real deal-breaker in… Read more

Trinitarians Believe What Jesus’ Enemies Claimed More than They Believe Jesus about His Identity
August 14, 2017 By Kermit Zarley 0 Comments
Trinitarians believe Jesus is God just as much as God the Father is God. They support this viewpoint by citing three major, biblical texts in which Jesus’ opponents alleged that he claimed to be God, or the like, whereas each time Jesus denied this allegation. So, in each case Trinitarians believe Jesus’ opponents and not Jesus. These texts are Mark 2.1-12, John 5.17-47, 10.30-38. First, Mark 2.1-12 (cf. Matt. 9.1-8; Luke 5.17-26) says Jesus came home to Capernaum and entered… Read more
Justin Thomas Wins PGA
August 13, 2017 By Kermit Zarley 0 Comments
Twenty-four year old Justin Thomas won the PGA Championship–the fourth and last major of the year in pro golf–for his fourth win this year on the PGA Tour and his first major win. The young guys are taking over pro golf almost as much as the young girls are taking over ladies pro golf. Thomas shot a three-under par 68 today for an eight-under par total of 276. Thomas won by two strokes over three players: Louis Oosthuizen, Patrick Reed,… Read more
Keven Kisner Still Leads the PGA
August 12, 2017 By Kermit Zarley 0 Comments
After three rounds of play in the 99th PGA Championship—which is chronologically the third of the four major championships in golf—second-round co-leader Keven Kisner had a two-shot lead with three holes to play. He hooked two irons shots on the 16th and 18th holes, which are par fours, that cost him dearly. On the 16th, the ball landed in the water for a double bogie six. On the 18th hole, the ball landed on a stone bridge straddling a… Read more

The growth of Facebook has been phenomenal. The graph showing its stock price over the past several years is the most steadily climbing graph line I think I’ve ever seen for a stock. This year, Facebook’s stock price is up 40%, which is 4x the S&P 500. In the past five years, Facebook’s stock price has escalated 670%. Mark Zuckerberg is the founder and CEO of Facebook. In 2004, he dropped out of the elite Harvard University to start the… Read more
Colin Powell Should Have Been President for a Time Like This
August 11, 2017 By Kermit Zarley 0 Comments
As most Americans know, North Korea has launched several ballistic missiles this year as tests indicating progression toward their stated goal of possessing nuclear ICBMs that can reach the U.S. mainland thousands of miles away. Only days ago, North Korea fired its first missile that U.S. intelligence said was capable of reaching the U.S. mainland and that they now have the capability of miniaturizing a nuclear warhead to fit on such a missile. The time has now arrived that the… Read more

The 99th PGA Championship began today at Quail Hollow Country Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. During the year, it is always the third of the four major championships in golf. Much attention will be on young superstar Jordan Spieth. Having just turned 24 years of age, he will be trying to win it to become the youngest player ever to win all four major championships in a career, called a Career Grand Slam. He got off to rocky start today… Read more
The Report about Present-Day Lebanese Being 93% Canaanite
August 10, 2017 By Kermit Zarley 0 Comments
On August 4th, I posted that the day prior some geneticists revealed in their report that they had discovered from their extensive DNA testing that present-day Lebanese people are descended mostly from the ancient Canaanites mentioned in the Bible. Marc Haber admits that this genetic match is surprisingly high to him: present-day Lebanese are 93% Canaanite. Marc Haber and Chris Tyler-Smith are the lead authors (with 14 other contributing geneticists) of the report in the American Journal of Human Genetics that… Read more
Mahmoud Abbas Says Palestinians Are Philistines
August 8, 2017 By Kermit Zarley 0 Comments
Mahmoud Abbas is president of the Palestinian Authority (PA). The PA governs Palestinians living in the West Bank, whereas Hamas governs Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip. In May last year, President Abbas gave a speech in which he claimed Palestinians have descended mostly from the ancient Philistines. He added that the Bible says Philistines lived in the Levant before Abraham arrived there. According to the Bible, Abraham–who lived four millennia ago–is the father of the Hebrew-Jewish people. President… Read more
Trump Is Trying to End the Russia Probe by Dividing America
August 6, 2017 By Kermit Zarley 0 Comments
President Donald Trump gave a public speech at a campaign rally in Huntington, West Virginia, last Thursday. In this speech, he made his oft-repeated allegation that the Justice Department’s Russian investigation, now directed by special counsel Robert Mueller, is a “witch hunt” and a “hoax.” If there is no such guilt by Trump or his surrogates that he knows about, he would remain silent and even assist Mueller rather than resist him. So, this is not the behavior of an… Read more
