White ≠ Right

When white racists and supremacists in the name of Christian nationalism want others to believe that they are the anointed and the righteous, when God’s righteousness has been credited to all believers of Christ by grace, who receive it by faith and not by works, regardless of their race, color, or social status—when God made Jesus who had no sin to be sin for all believers, so that in Him they are considered “right” in God’s eyes.

Trumpublicans, January 6 “patriots,” and morally bankrupt GOP members want those who don’t look or think like them to believe that white privilege is a divine gift, which should prevail in all spheres of life at all times and in all places, turning a blind eye that white ≠ right and white ≠ might.

Mask Art

When artists worldwide creatively use their art via masks to fight COVID-19, by transforming the medical masks, which often instill fear and death, into symbols of hope and life.

Mask art through the artists’ creations encourages people to wear masks, not as an obligation but out of conviction, to protect themselves and others against infection or reinfection.

Piastor

A pastor who likes to tease his geeky members to infer the biblical value of π from 1 Kings 7:23 or 2 Chronicles 4:2, and then to challenge them to explain why it differs from the mathematical value.

Guesstimate how many piastors or theologians worldwide could reasonably explain the discrepancy between the rational value of biblical pi and the irrational value of mathematical pi.

Trumpulator

A four-function calculator, marketed by the newly created educational arm of Trump Organization, that is designed with some broken or disabled keys, so that users would need to figure out how to perform basic math calculations without them—a limited number of the dear malfunctioned collectible will be available, as part of raising funds to help defray the high costs of the ex-president’s lawsuits.

A trumpulator will be promoted as a Xmas gift of choice for privileged white kids of wealthy Trumpublicans at annual state Republican meetings in coming months.

Psalm 3

A psalm by King David, when he was fleeing from his son Absalom, who wanted to dethrone him. In spite of being assailed by thousands of his enemies, who didn’t believe God would rescue him, David cried out to the Lord for help. The Lord delivered him by striking his opponents, because salvation belongs to the Lord, whose blessing is on His people.

If Donald J. Trump, the Pharisee-in-Chief, who lusted for money, sex, and power, and who is presently facing so many trials, tribulations, and temptations from all sides, appropriated the promises in Psalm 3, what are the chances that his name would not only be in the Book of Life, but he’d also return as an anointed political savior?

Did Trump Have Nine Lives?

An equivalent of asking “Could Donald J. Trump be nearing the last stage of his decade-long corrupt and criminal lifestyle after devilishly and successfully avoiding fines and jail sentences time and time again?”

How long could Trump’s “political persecution” be used as a legal excuse to exonerate him from being locked up? Did Trump have nine lives? Have bribes, crimes, and lies finally lost patience with him and his cronies? Has Heaven’s impatience taken hold of them?

The Global Vaccine Divide

When a number of Western countries would not allow travellers who have been jabbed with vaccines not manufactured in the West to enter, because the quality or efficacy of those allegedly “Eastern shots” is suspicious.

If the global vaccine divide were to be enforced, which means that vaccines like Covishield, Sinovac, Sinopharm, and Sputnik V wouldn’t be recognized in the EU (and possibly in the US), how much would global tourism or economy be decimated? Would the “vaccine apartheid” perpetrated by the West potentially usher in a World War III?
