Originally published last Dec. Not sure if anyone posted it due to no search results. Perhaps a couple of the books would be interesting based on the synopsis made of them. Then again, the brief description may suffice. Look or don't. Misc stuff is all. Me, NOT thinking we're going to hell in a flaming basket myself. Others possibly because of the constant barrage of negativeness from the lames is affecting some folks.

Then theres the idea that God here at the End of Days has reincarnated many of the wicked of past generations to give them one more chance. Obviously not many are taking advantage.

From the article, the premise of “The Death of Expertise” is that we should just trust the experts, and not be anti-intellectual/anti-science. They go on to say, “Practice some humility. Trust in science. Trust in people who have decades of experience in a field. In many ways, the issue today, above all others, is trust.”
However, the issue is that the so-called “experts” also have agendas, which does not appear to be addressed. And how many times, especially in economics and climate-change have things been “unexpected” by the “experts.”
I prefer the old Reagan line, “Trust but verify.”

If you aren't freaking out about something, then
well, then Im freaking out that youre not freaking out.”
all I need to read right there to know the author is a flaming idiot.
Unless you have a terminal diagnosis, are facing homelessness, or have a gun currently pointed at you, freaking out does nothing but increase the odds of a bad outcome. And even in those circumstances it probably does.

If you arent freaking out about something, then
well, then Im freaking out that youre not freaking out. Tell the rest of us: whats your secret?
My secret? I put my faith in Christ and see this world as akin to a video game. It is temporary and merely a training ground for believers. Boot camp is tough.

The world is not messed up. Millions of individuals are insane and delusional and see the world as messed up.

Truffle toothpaste?
Damn, and my dental hygienist just put me on baking soda toothpaste.
What am I missing here?
Oh, well, I guess if you have to ask how much, you can’t afford it.
