Zero Point Energy is real (but shhh)

Pyramids found in Poland...and Bosnia?

USA has pyramids, but no one seems to know it.

.

Polish archaeologists have found two megalithic tombs over 5,500 years old that teach us more about the burial practices and engineering abilities of one of Europe’s earliest agricultural societies.

The structures—sometimes called “Polish pyramids” or “giants’ graves” due to their triangular, monumental shape—were uncovered in the village of Wyskoć, in General Dezydery Chłapowski Landscape Park in the Wielkopolska province.

The discovery was made by archaeologists from Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań during a field survey regularly conducted using remote sensing technology.

The tombs, whose existence was confirmed through excavations, were constructed by the Funnelbeaker Culture, a Neolithic society characterized by pottery and monumental burials.

The new findings are the second of their kind to be identified in the Wielkopolska region, the first being in 2019. More: archaeologymag.com

What do US Christians really believe? (NPR)

What do American Christians believe about their own religion?

When referring to American Christians, politicians and the mainstream media are often focusing on one group — politicized evangelicals. But, in truth, they are a tiny slice of the broad spectrum of American Christianity.

A survey finds that American Christians’ beliefs are as diverse as the country they live in. From the traditional sacred nonsense “Jesus Christ, we believe is God incarnate who came, died a death on a cross, and then rose again on the third day,” like listener Peter Green says, to the surprising number of regular churchgoers who believe Jesus was a great teacher but not divine.

“Whether or not in fact he is divine, and the son of God, is actually, well, it’s a little irrelevant to me personally,” says listener Jennifer Hudson. Today, On Point: The voices we don’t often hear in American Christianity.

HOST MEGHNA CHAKRABARTI: For decades, when covering the views of American Christians, the media, including this show, have often focused on right wing Christianity, largely because of its significant political influence. Think of groups such as the Christian Coalition, the Moral Majority, Focus on the Family, just to name a small few. And more recently, the rise of Christian nationalist extremism cannot be denied, especially after the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.

SCOTT McCONNELL: A growing movement led by right wing politicians is increasingly challenging a centuries old value of America’s political system, the separation of church and state. During the January 6th attack on the Capitol, there were Trump banners and confederate flags, the Gadsden flags. There’s also Christian imagery. The wooden cross, people in prayer, the “Jesus saves” slogan.

CHAKRABARTI: And while these groups dominate media coverage of Christianity, and for good reason, they also represent only a fraction of the more than 60% of Americans who identify themselves as followers of the Christian faith. And American Christians overall have a spectrum of belief as broad and diverse. As the country they live.

In fact, many American Christians profess beliefs that their more conservative fellow churchgoers find outright heretical. We have a biblically heretical statement that says the Bible, like all sacred writings, contains helpful accounts of ancient myths, but it is not literally true. AUDIO: wbur.org/onpoint

Jesus is "weak," Trump strong, pastor worried

Monty Python in The Life of Brian re-enact Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, but it's hard to hear:

Pastor alarmed after Trump-loving congregants deride Jesus' teachings as "weak"

I am now the Lord your God. Obey me!

Evangelical Christian leader Russell Moore revealed this week that many Christian evangelical pastors have become alarmed that their Trump-loving congregants have become so militant that they are even rejecting the teachings of Jesus Christ.

In an interview with NPR, Pastor Moore said that multiple pastors had told him disturbing stories about their congregants being upset when they read from the famous "Sermon on the Mount" in which the Christ (the "Annointed One") spoused the principles of forgiveness and mercy as central to Christian doctrine.

"Multiple pastors tell me, essentially, the same story about quoting the Sermon on the Mount, parenthetically, in their preaching — 'turn the other cheek' — [only] to have someone come up after to say, 'Where did you get those liberal talking points?'" Moore revealed. 

"And what was alarming to me is that in most of these scenarios, when the pastor would say, 'I'm literally quoting Jesus Christ,' the response would not be, 'I apologize.'

"The response would be, 'Yes, but that doesn't work anymore. That's weak.'"

Sin with me, Republicans. God will forgive us.

Pastor Moore, who has been an outspoken critic of many evangelicals' embrace of Trump, argues that this has led him to conclude that American evangelical Christianity is now in crisis.
