What th !

I was just watching the news over here in Oz lastnight and was absolutely disgusted and gobsmacked by the news of all these CEO's of big company's and even a Judge who lied under oath who has been disgraced, yet he still gets a pension of $200,000 a year even though he may go to prison!

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

HIV Adapts to ‘Escape’ Immune Response

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) adapts so well to the body's defense system that any successful AIDS vaccine must keep pace with the ever-changing immunological profile of the virus, according to researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and the University of Oxford in England.

A new study better describes HIV's ability to adapt by spelling out at least 14 different… Continue

MUNICH - German dissident Horst Mahler has been sentenced to six years in prison for "Volksverhetzung" (racial incitement).
