Rev. Schenck and Archaeologists Comment on Latest "Hoax" of Jesus' Grave

"All of Jesus' contemporaries recorded Christ rose after being dead for three days and ascended into Heaven. For 2,000 years people of faith along with countless scholars have pored over the Scriptures, confirming their veracity. A Hollywood director is the least qualified to render any determination of Biblical truth." Dane Rose/AH (Feb. 26th, 2007) National Clergy Council president, the Reverend Rob Schenck issued this statement following a press conference that announced a new documentary claiming proof against the Resurrection of Jesus Christ: "Today, Hollywood director James Cameron, whose claim to fame is a fictionalized account of the sinking of the Titanic, unveiled a documentary claiming a coffin found in Jerusalem 27 years ago, once contained the remains of Jesus Christ. Cameron employed archaeologists and DNA experts to bolster his assertion [that] Jesus was buried along with his mother Mary, Mary Magdalene and a supposed son...

People who sleep on their stomachs have lower night time blood pressure

People who sleep on their stomachs have lower night time blood pressure than people who sleep in other positions, according to research from Japan. Yasuharu Tabara of Ehime University School of Medicine in Ehime, Japan, noted that high blood pressure during the night can increase the risk of a night time heart attack, reports Patient Health International. In the research, more than 270 healthy men ages 19 to 64 who were not taking blood pressure medication wore automatic blood pressure cuffs. They were first asked to lie down face up and later were told to turn over on their stomachs. In almost all the men, their overall blood pressure dropped significantly when they were face down. And 25 of the men experienced an even more dramatic decrease of more than 15 points when they just turned over onto their stomachs. In addition, systolic blood pressure, which is the force blood exerts on the artery walls when the heart beats, fell by ...

HOW DO YOU SLEEP ?

HOW DO YOU SLEEP ? You may not achieve the comfort levels and sleep position you are used to in your bed at home, but look around the cabin next time you fly to see the many different positions we adopt (or try to !) whilst asleep. Scientists believe the position in which a person goes to sleep provides an important clue about the kind of person they are. So .... what does your sleeping position actually say about you ? Professor Chris Idzikowski, director of the UK Sleep Assessment and Advisory Service analysed six common sleeping positions - and found that each is linked to a particular personality type. Copyright BBC What your sleeping position says about you ... Foetus Those who curl up in the foetus position are described as tough on the outside but sensitive at heart. They may be shy when they first meet somebody, but soon relax. This is the most common sleeping position, adopted by 41% of the 1,000 people who to...

Driverless Cars a Reality by 2030?

"Today we can drive about 100 miles before human assistance is necessary. By 2010 I expect this to go up to 1,000 miles, and by 2020 a million miles. By 2030 we should be able to deploy this technology on the open highway, and reliability will exceed that of humans by orders of magnitude." Nic Fleming/TN (Feb. 21st, 2007) A report in The Telegraph UK says driverless cars that can predict the actions of other vehicles and negotiate busy city traffic will be commonplace by 2030...and they'll be far safer too. (Photo: Driverless Car "Stanley"–developed at Stanford University—CNET News) The report noted that, at the annual American Association for the Advancement of Science conference in San Francisco, designers unveiled "Junior," a "modified blue VW Passat that will enter a £1 million contest later this year to navigate its way autonomously through a simulated urban environment including other robot vehicles and traffic ...

French Pastor Who Led Team to Top of Everest, Buried Bible at Summit—the "Furthest Reaches of the World"

"Taking off the oxygen mask, he began singing a hymn of praise. After being joined by the rest of his team, he made a symbolic gesture that, for him, was the sole purpose of the expedition." Good News Staff/TN (Feb. 19th, 2007) At 52 years of age, with a wife and four children, Frenchman Philippe Martinez was uncertain whether he should accept an offer to guide a French expedition to the summit of Everest. According to a report in Good News, he had been a mountain guide since 1981, but had later become a Christian and subsequently a pastor and was no longer as reckless as he had been in his youth. Resisting the call at first, through prayer he gradually came to believe that God was indeed calling him back to Mt. Everest, a mountain that the people of the Himalayas call "The Earth Goddess." Ultimately, however, it was his wife Brigitte, who had just finished treatment for cancer, who convinced him to follow God's call. ...

Study of Top Movies in 2006 Shows Moviegoers Prefer Morally Uplifting Movies

"...not only were none of the Top 10 movies in 2006 rated R, we found that only two of those movies are completely unacceptable viewing for families with traditional moral values...." Dr. Ted Baehr (Feb. 19th, 2007) An annual study of the Top 10 and Top 25 movies at the box office, as determined by Nielsen EDI, reveals that moviegoers prefer family-friendly movies with traditional values reflecting Judeo-Christian worldviews. "Family friendly movies with strong moral messages are more likely to please moviegoers," said Dr. Ted Baehr, chairman and founder of the Christian Film & Television Commission which sponsored the study of the top movies. For example, none, or 90 percent, of the Top 10 Movies had strong or very strong moral, Biblical or even Christian content. Furthermore, none of the Top 10 movies, and only three of the Top 25, were rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). "We don't...
