Three PGA Tour pros are leading the first round in The Players Championship today after carding a seven-under par 65 at the Tour-owned TPC Sawgrass located at Ponte Vedra, Florida. They are four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, and current U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark, and consistent Exander Schaufelle. All three are currently among the top contenders in the four major golf tournaments in the world, and this tournament is often regarded as “the fifth major.” After Exander Schaufelle’s round today,...

I don’t think there has ever been more analysis in various sports about the proper action that brings success than there has been in the game of golf. That is, there has been so much teaching about how to swing a golf club properly than how to swing a baseball bat, how to throw a football, or how to shoot a basketball. Don’t get me wrong; there has been plenty of analysis in these other sports about proper technique regarding... Read more

Scottie Scheffler just proved again, two hours ago, that he is the best golfer on Planet Earth by winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational Presented by Mastercard at Bay Hill Club and Lodge in Orlando, Florida. The crowd chanted “Scott-ie, Scott-ie! as the now bearded, popular Texan went from tied for the lead with Shane Lowry this morning to a five-stroke victory over current U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark with a five-under par 66 for a 72-hole total of 15-under 273....

Do West Bank Jewish Settlements Prevent a Palestinian State?

Volker Turk, The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, said today of the Israeli-occupied West Bank that Jewish “settler violence and settlement-related violations have reached shocking new levels, and risk eliminating any practical possibility of establishing a viable Palestinian state.” He said that because the traditional thinking is that a Palestinian state can only be established where Palestinians have lived in the past century or more–the West Bank and Gaza Strip. But as I keep harping for all these many... Read more

USA Again Denies UFOs Are Aliens

Today, the U.S. government released the report of its exhaustive investigation of UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects), now called UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena), and it denies the existence of “extraterrestrial” intelligent life. This report dates back to U.S. government involvement in trying to identify UFOs since the late 1940s. The word “extraterrestrial” is generally understood as physical life originating in this universe from somewhere other than planet Earth. That’s how “aliens” are usually understood. I have blogged a lot about this... Read more

Some 62-year guy in Germany has been “hypervaccinated” with 217 COVID-19 vaccination shots by his own choosing. It came to the attention of German law enforcement and then health authorities due to a fraud investigation. But the details of it appear to remain secret. He had 130 of these 217 coronavirus vaccinations in a period of nine months. When asked why he did it, he said it was for “private reasons.” His case was reported Monday in the Lancet Infectious...

Daniel Pipes, president of The Middle East Forum and author of Islamism vs. the West: 35 Years of Geopolitical Struggle, has authored an interesting article entitled “Netanyahu’s Bold, Realistic Plan for ‘the Day After Hamas'” that was published in the Wall Street Journal yesterday. It begins with Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s brief document announced last month entitled “The Day After Hamas.” Indeed, the prime minister had been criticized for not speaking up on this subject soon after Hamas—the Islamic...

One time when Jesus attended Passover at the temple, he got angry at those selling animals, made a whip, and drove them out, saying, “‘Take these things out of here! Stop making my Father’s house a marketplace!’ … The Jews then said to him, ‘What sign can you show us for doing this?’ Jesus answered them, ‘Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up’” (John 2.16, 18-19 NRSV). We are then informed, “But he was speaking... Read more

At the request of the UN General Assembly, the Court of Justice at The Hague held a week of hearings, which it completed today, about Israel’s 57-year occupation of the so-called “Palestinian territories.” It heard from over 50 nations, most of whom sided with Palestinians in the intransigent conflict between Israel and Palestinians. Since justice grinds slowly, the Court said it would render its opinion on the matter in about six months. What matter? Israel allegedly in violation of international... Read more

The political-religious ideology known as “Christian nationalism” exists in various countries in the world, especially in the U.S., and it has been growing in popularity in recent years, mostly among evangelicals. And I have been an evangelical all of my adult life. But what is Christian nationalism? It refers mostly to efforts by professing Christians to pass government legislation that would further identify their nation as “Christian” and thereby oppose secularism. U.S. Christian nationalists often claim their nation was founded... Read more
