“What Is Truth?” THAT question was cynically posed to Jesus by the Roman Governor Pontius Pilate. He was not interested in an answer, and Jesus did not give him one. Perhaps Pilate viewed truth as too elusive to grasp. Pilate indifferently rejected the opportunity to learn such truth. What about you? Learn more about Jesus Christ:

24 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “If anyone wants to come after me, let him disown himself and pick up his torture stake* and keep following me.+ 25 For whoever wants to save his life* will lose it, but whoever loses his life* for my sake will find it.+ 26 Really, what good will it do a man if he gains the whole world but loses his life?*+ Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?*+ 27 For the Son of man is to come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will repay each one according to his behavior.+ 28 Truly I say to you that there are some of those standing here who will not taste death at all until first they see the Son of man coming in hi…

This Never Before Seen Spider Looks Like a Leaf: typhlonectes: For Matjaz Kuntner, it was just another evening trek through southwestern China’s Yunnan rain forest—until his headlamp illuminated a strand of spider silk. That’s not so surprising on its own. But what attracted the arachnologist’s attention is the silk appeared to attach a leaf to a tree branch. After looking closer, Kuntner realized one of these leaves was actually a spider. “If there’s a web, there’s a spider,” says Kuntner, of the Smithsonian Institution and the Evolutionary Zoology Laboratory in Slovenia. The arachnid uses its silk to attach leaves to tree branches, and then hides among the b…

united-nations: A warm welcome to the new UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Kristin Davis! The actress and philanthropist started her journey with the UN Refugee Agency three years ago by travelling to Northern Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, meeting South Sudanese refugees and hearing their stories. Moved by refugee accounts, Davis wrote about her trip. “Despite losing so much, despite having their lives re-set to zero, they still want to achieve – for their families, for their community, for their country. It seems to me that the very least that each one of us can give to refugees across the world – but particularly those in our own schools, in our own comm…

historical-nonfiction: High in the Andes Mountains, at the Khonkho Wankane ceremonial center near Lake Titicaca in Bolivia, archaeologists have found evidence of what they believe is a “defleshing” ritual. Yup, you read that right. In one of the unlooted ceremonial rooms were hundreds of bits of human bone from at least 25 different people, each bit of bone coated in white plaster. Interestingly the isotope analysis of the bones indicated they were not locals. Archaeologists also found calcium oxide aka quicklime which becomes a corrosive liquid when mixed with water and heated. Perfect for getting flesh off bones. The researchers hypothesize that pilgrims to the s…

medresearch: New Assay May Lead to Better Treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis Researchers at NYU Langone Medical Center have developed a test to measure the immunologic defect that triggers the inflammation present in rheumatoid arthritis. They believe that clinical trials for new rheumatoid arthritis drugs should shift from their sole focus on relieving inflammation to eliminating the B cells that produce the antibodies that cause this defect. “We have developed a test for measuring the underlying autoimmunity in rheumatoid arthritis patients that should be used to evaluate new treatment regimens,” says senior author Gregg Silverman, MD, professor in the depar…

People worry a lot about the size of their tax bill this time of year, but the size of the bill simply to do their taxes often induces anxiety as well.
