If we're headed for regime change in Iran, get ready for a military draft. We'll need one. Our leaders seem interested in toppling Iran's theocracy. But do they want a new U.S. military draft? Because make no mistake, that's what it will take.

Very scary to see the news this morning. Found this read from a few days ago basically arguing that nothing good can come of airstrikes on Iran (obviously). Wonder if Trump considered the long term costs - probably not.

Gordon Wenham: Rest in Peace – The Kirby Laing Centre Craig Bartholomew points out that the Rome Statute defines genocide in a way that fits Israel's assaults on Gaza, and he points to challenging recent works by Louis Theroux and Omar El Akkad.

I love it when the Church Times puts something out which views doubt as human and biblical!

If your theology/church tells you that you’ll go to hell if you doubt, they’ve not read about Jacob wrestling with God!

Two ways: Pope Francis visits a prison in Rome and, after spending time with inmates, blows them kisses. He said, "I ask myself: Why them and not me?" Rep. Moore visits a jail in El Salvador and gave a thumbs up to their suffering. Which way would Jesus, imprisoned during the Passion, prefer?

If anyone has any more interactive and academic guides/resources for the Bible, let me know! 😊
