Does Trump Know Gates Warned about This?

Last updated on: March 22, 2020 at 1:35 pm By Kermit Zarley

President Trump keeps trying to deflect criticism against him for his mishandling of this coronavirus pandemic. Indeed, at first he said Democrats were blowing it out of proportion, calling it their “new hoax.” That’s because he had constantly called the Mueller investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election “a hoax” and “a witch hunt.” So, he started doing the same thing regarding the spreading of this most deadly coronavirus. He lies about it. Thursday, Trump was at it... Read more

COVID-19 Part 2: China Needs Exposure to Religious Jews

Last updated on: June 20, 2022 at 11:15 pm By Kermit Zarley

This post is a followup to yesterday’s post, “COVID-19 and Jewish Dietary Laws.” In it, I compare COVID-19 and some recent virus epidemics with Jewish dietary laws first set forth in the Jewish scriptures, in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. I do it because scientists have discovered that some of these virus epidemics have been traced to the human interaction and even consumption of animals that these scriptures declare as “unclean” and therefore forbidden for human consumption, such as pigs...

COVID-19 Part 1: Jewish Dietary Laws

Last updated on: June 20, 2022 at 11:12 pm By Kermit Zarley

The Current Coronavirus Pandemic It seems to me that the current coronavirus pandemic, called COVID-19, that the world is experiencing may prove the existence of the God of Israel. I don’t mean exactly as divine judgment imposed upon us, but that it may have occurred due to the failure of humans to observe, to a certain extent, the dietary laws that Israel’s God gave his people, the Hebrews, and that are...

Coronavirus Taking Its Toll

Last updated on: March 18, 2020 at 7:02 pm By Kermit Zarley

In only a few weeks, the coronavirus pandemic, called COVID-19, is taking its toll on the U.S. and nations throughout the world like nothing we have ever seen before. It started in China, and I intend to post something about that soon. Surprising to most of us Americans, this virus is now exposing the U.S. as being, contrary to what President Trump has been saying until this week, seriously inefficient in having a protective health system against viruses. To make... Read more

Mexico May Pay for the Wall after All!

Last updated on: March 14, 2020 at 7:45 pm By Kermit Zarley

Mexico may need to build that wall on the U.S.-Mexico border that U.S. President Donald Trump is always harping about that he is trying to get built. He’s doing it to keep immigrants from illegally crossing from Mexico into the U.S., mostly to find a better a life. In Trump’s political campaign for the U.S. presidency during late 2015, he proclaimed publicly for the first time that Mexico was to blame for “tremendous infectious disease . . . pouring across...

Trump’s Coronavirus Speech Today Helped and Hurt

Last updated on: March 13, 2020 at 7:08 pm By Kermit Zarley

Well, I said in my last post I would not post about Trump for a while. I wasn’t quite right. I will post if I believe what he says or does relates to Christian teaching and or the Bible. Today, President Trump gave a lengthy speech outside the White House in a News Conference with about a couple dozen people he collected from the federal government and private sector to accompany him. The main takeaway was that he declared a... Read more

Fake President!

Last updated on: March 7, 2020 at 6:37 pm By Kermit Zarley

U.S. President Donald Trump’s several recent, public statements about the spreading “coronavirus disease 2019” (abbreviated COVID-19 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention=CDC) is just further proof of what I’ve been writing on my blog every since he campaigned for the U.S. presidency (maybe 150 posts until now) that he is unqualified to be president of this nation. Since he constantly and unjustly, in my opinion, berates the media by calling it “FAKE NEWS,” I’m now calling him a... Read more

Update Trump-Kushner Mideast Peace Plan

Last updated on: March 5, 2020 at 10:50 pm By Kermit Zarley

Jared Kushner–U.S. President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, advisor, and co-author of the Trump administration’s recent plan put forth to solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict–held a bipartisan meeting yesterday with members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to update them on this new Mid-East peace plan. (See plan map here.) Palestinian leaders already had rejected this plan before it was even revealed, in late January. But Kushner reported that the plan has received positive reviews by Israeli leaders and even some Arab leaders.... Read more

Who Believed in Easter First: Mary or John?

Last updated on: February 27, 2020 at 12:33 pm By Kermit Zarley

Some rationalists might say, “If I could see a miracle, I’d believe in the supernatural.” Or some skeptics might say, with Easter now near, “If I could have seen Jesus alive, I would have believed in his resurrection from the dead.” Yet, Jesus said multiple times, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign” (Matthew 12.39; 16.4), that is, in order to believe in the supernatural. And when doubting Thomas saw the risen Jesus, with the holes in his... Read more

Is Trump’s Evangelical Team Worrisome?

Last updated on: February 28, 2020 at 3:33 pm By Kermit Zarley

I think some aspects are. Let’s look into them. It is ironic that President Donald Trump has gathered around himself as advisors several outspoken Evangelical Christians even though he himself has demonstrated throughout his life to the present time that he is anything but that even though he publicly acknowledges God. Regrettably, a sizable portion of American Evangelicals also have been outspoken in their opposition to protecting earth’s environment and even human health. This has been typical of many Republicans... Read more
