The Roman emperor Julian (r. 361-363 CE) was a man of action and of letters, which he employed in an effort to return the Empire to the light of the pagan gods, and reverse the Christianization of the empire advanced by his uncle Constantine and the sons of Constantine. This enterprise was inspired and guided by his conversion to the Neoplatonic philosophy and radical pagan Hellenism of Iamblichus and his disciples, and promoted by his production of Greek orations, letters, and satires. These works present a coherent vision of the providentially guided history and destiny of Rome as a series of foundations and refoundations enacted by rulers such as Romulus, Numa, and Caesar Augustus. As this book demonstrates, Julian offers an Iamblichean approach to the exegesis of the legends of Rome's founding, the allegories of Plato's dialogues, and myths of his own creation in order to articulate his own role in the refounding of the Empire. Furthermore, argues Jeremy Swist, approaching the wider examination of Julian's imperial self-image on these terms ends up nuancing and challenging common assumptions influenced by the rhetoric of his contemporary proponents. In his reverence for the gods and for philosophy, the emperor's self-construction embraces the identities of a statesman and soldier more than of a philosopher, of a Roman more than a Greek, and of a mere human rather than a semi-divine being. While distancing himself from the ideal models of philosophical virtue and imperial founding that inspire his own actions, he adopts a different set of exemplary figures as mirrors of himself.

Christian, the headlines are not your friend today, and we now find ourselves again in the unenviable position of being on the verge of another life-changing event similar to the way it was back in the early days of 2020. You weren't a hundred percent sure where things were taking you, but you were getting there at lightning speed. Hear that sound? Tick-tock goes the end times clock.“Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?” Job 7:1 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we as a nation are focused on grandeur, image, and spectacle, just as the Roman Empire was in its last days before the fall. America today stands on the same crumbling precipice that Rome did when its marble columns still gleamed but its heart had already rotted away. Like the Caesars of old, our leaders buy peace with bread and circuses — fancy ballrooms, endless entertainment, and the illusion of prosperity built on debt. The moral fabric that once held this nation together has been shredded by lust, greed, and rebellion against the God who made her great. Our schools teach godlessness, our courts defend wickedness, and our culture exalts self over sacrifice. As Rome's legions marched abroad while decay spread within, America too projects power overseas while collapsing at home. Around the globe, the war bells are clanging ever-louder, seemingly unstoppable. We stand on a precipice, and on this episode, we bring you there. Like it or not.

Matthew 22:15-22 The Plot Initiated (vv. 15-17) Freak Companions False coaxing Fallacious Conundrum The Profile Imprinted (vv. 18-20) Show Me the money Show Me the image" The Point Illustrated (vv. 21-22) A horizontal philosophy that which is Caesars A vertical reality that which is Gods More to Consider Jesus was aware of the hypocrisy in their approach and also of the implications of His answer. He therefore answered their question by demonstrating that government does have a rightful place in everyones life and that one can be in subjection to government and God at the same time. He asked them to give Him a coin used to pay the tax. A Roman denarius, with its image of Caesar, the Roman emperor, made it obvious they were under Roman authority and taxation. (One coin inscription reads, Tiberius Caesar Augustus, son of the Divine Augustus.) Therefore the taxes must be paid: Give to Caesar what is Caesars. But Jesus also reminded them that a sphere of authority belongs to God: Give to God what is Gods. Individuals are to be subject also to His authority. Man has both political and spiritual responsibilities. Amazed at Jesus answer, both the Pharisees and the Herodians were silenced. Barbieri, L. A., Jr. (1985). Matthew. In J. F. Walvoord R. B. Zuck (Eds.), The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures (Vol. 2, p. 72). Victor Books. Man bears Gods image and owes God his all. Caesars image was on the coin; Gods image is on man (Gen. 1:2627). Sin has marred that image, but through Jesus Christ, it can be restored (Eph. 4:24; Col. 3:10). The relationship between religion and government is personal and individual. It is right for the people of God to serve in government (remember Daniel and Joseph). But it is wrong for government to control the church, or for the church to control government. Wiersbe, W. W. (1996). The Bible exposition commentary (Vol. 1, p. 80). Victor Books. Nothing is known of the Herodians outside of the Gospels. Judging from their name, they were supporters of the Herodian dynasty in its collaboration with the Roman government. This would put them at the opposite end of the political spectrum from the Pharisees. Yet their common hatred of Christ was great enough that the Pharisees and Herodians joined forces against Him. Radmacher, E. D., Allen, R. B., House, H. W. (1999). Nelsons new illustrated Bible commentary (p. 1183). T. Nelson Publishers.

After three (very full!) weeks of Shakespeare, we reluctantly leave England for Italy—and step into the vivid world of Renaissance art. Ted Gioia's Immersive Humanities List serves up a refreshing change of scene with Giorgio Vasari's Lives of the Artists and Benvenuto Cellini's Autobiography.Both were brand-new to me, and both were a delight. Vasari, himself an accomplished painter and architect, profiles the greats—Giotto, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, and Michelangelo—not as remote geniuses but as human beings: witty, flawed, brilliant, and endlessly ambitious. His writing reminded me of Suetonius' Lives of the Caesars—a chronicle of greatness, but with warmth instead of gossip. Vasari captures not just the artists but the culture that shaped them: a world where beauty was power, art was currency, and patrons competed to prove their taste and influence.Each artist glows in Vasari's telling. Giotto, kind and devoted to the Church; Botticelli, charming and hopeless with money; Leonardo, the restless perfectionist who could give a lizard wings; Raphael, the graceful imitator who died too young; Michelangelo, the divine genius who could never quite trust the world that adored him. Reading Lives left me wondering how Florence could possibly have produced so many masters at once—and wishing we could live, just for a moment, in a world that valued art that deeply.Then came Benvenuto Cellini, the goldsmith, sculptor, and self-styled rogue whose Autobiography reads like an adventure novel. He's talented, impulsive, funny, and so honest that you can't help but like him. Cellini's stories—his fiery temper, his father's musical ambitions, his devotion to Michelangelo—make the Renaissance feel wonderfully alive.This week's title, “True Colors,” fits perfectly. Vasari and Cellini reveal the true colors of art and ambition—divine inspiration, human pride, and all the messy brilliance in between.This is a year-long challenge!

Can a democracy defend itself without destroying the freedoms that define it? Todd explores the collapse of free speech into spectacle, the lure of censorship and strongmen, and what happens when citizens start begging for order over liberty. - This week on The Thompson Show (WWCR), Todd rips into the hypocrisy of cancel culture, collapsing media institutions, and the dangerous slide from free speech to approved (licensed) speech. From Kimmel's suspension to the killings of Charlie Kirk and the Ukrainian woman in Charlotte, this episode asks whether free speech has now become the insurgent-weapon-of-choice aimed at liberal democracy itself? If so, can a free society defend itself without dismantling the freedoms that define it? Drawing on Walter Lippmann's century-old warning about propaganda, "special pleading" and the “hullabaloo of sophistry,” Todd dissects how algorithmic media, tribal militias, and weaponized outrage are pushing citizens to beg for censors or Caesars. At stake is more than free speech. Can open societies can survive the assault of illiberal forces without becoming illiberal themselves? (hint: it's still the people) Fight algorithmic totalitarianism! Rate, Review, and Share!  Broadcast Info:

När Augustus grep makten under den utdragna maktkampen i spåren av mordet Julius Caesars genomlevde Rom en djup identitetskris. Republiken hade kollapsat, och ett nytt imperium växte fram – styrt av en man som vägrade titulera sig kung, men ändå utövade envälde i praktiken. För att befästa sin ställning och skapa den långvariga freden – Pax Romana – insåg Augustus att han behövde kontrollera mer än armén och senaten; han måste också forma romarnas värderingar, livsstil och kultur. Men han lyckades inte kontrollera sin egen dotter Julia.I det sjätte och avslutande avsnittet i Historia Nu:s sexdelade serie om Romarriket samtalar Urban Lindstedt med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Ett av de tydligaste uttrycken för detta var Augustus försök att kontrollera det privata livet – särskilt äktenskap, sexualitet och kvinnlig dygd. Genom lagar som Lex Iulia de maritandis ordinibus (18 f.Kr.) och Lex Iulia de adulteriis coercendis (17 f.Kr.) ville Augustus återupprätta så kallade romerska dygder. Gifta medborgare – särskilt från överklassen – förväntades föda fler barn och leva moraliskt. Ogifta kunde drabbas av ekonomiska straff, och äktenskapsbrott blev ett offentligt brott. Kvinnor hamnade i fokus för regleringen: lojalitet, trohet och moderskap framhölls som ideal. Ironiskt nog drabbades hans egen dotter Julia – landsförvisad år 2 f.Kr. för påstått omoraliskt leverne – vilket innebar ett officiellt bakslag för hans moralism.Samtidigt kultiverade han en ny kulturell identitet genom att skydda och uppmuntra den latinska poesin – det som kom att kallas "det gyllene århundradet". Poeter som Horatius, Vergilius och, inledningsvis, Ovidius var nära kopplade till hans hov. Aeneiden av Vergilius blev ett epokgörande nationalepos som förenade myt, historia och Augustusrötter och kopplade honom till guden Venus genom Aeneas släktlinje. Ovidius, vars verk som Metamorfoser och Ars Amatoria klantades med kärlek och förförelse, förvisades till Svarta havets kust år 8 e.Kr. – i ett tydligt tecken på kulturens spänning under Augustus regim.En av hans mest konkreta kvarlevor är byggnadsverk. Augustus återuppbyggde gamla tempel, lät uppföra nya offentliga byggnader och förskönade stadens infrastruktur – allt vitalt för att skapa ett värdigt Rom. I Res Gestae Divi Augusti sammanfattar han sin insats: “Jag tog över en stad av tegel och lämnade en av marmor.” Monument som Ara Pacis och Mars Ultors tempel på Forum Augustum manifesterade hans roll som fredsstiftare och Caesars arvtagare – och fyllde stadsrummet med arkitektonisk symbolik, arbetstillfällen och belöningar för lojalitet. Det nya Rom – mjukgatad i marmor – blev ett monument över hans makt.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

När Julius Caesar mördades den 15 mars 44 f.Kr. förväntade sig många att den romerska republiken skulle återupprättas. I verkligheten bevarades och vidareutvecklades många av hans reformer av hans adoptivson Augustus. Kejsardömet var ett faktum.Caesar och Augustus lade de grunden till kejsardömet efter århundraden av republik. Octavianus, senare Augustus, inledde sin karriär med blod på sina händer. När regimen stabiliserats fick vi Pax Romana – cirka 200 år av fred där litteratur och konst blomstrade med poeter som Vergilius, Horatius och Ovidius.I det femte avsnittet i Historia Nu:s sexdelade serie om Romarriket samtalar Urban Lindstedt med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Flera av Caesars reformer var så framgångsrika att de överlevde hans död och sattes i system under kejsartiden. Ett tydligt exempel är den Julianska kalendern, infördes 45 f.Kr. och baserades på solåret med 365 dagar och skottdag vart fjärde år. Den ersatte den tidigare månbaserade kalendern och användes i över 1 600 år – kalendern vi använder idag har sin grund här, och juli är uppkallad efter honom.En annan viktig princip var en utvidgning av medborgarskapet till provinser som Gallien och Spanien, särskilt för dem som tjänat militären. Denna inkluderande strategi banade väg för en enhetlig identitet i riket, och nådde sin kulmen i Caracallas edikt år 212 e.Kr., som gav fullt medborgarskap till alla fria män i imperiet.Augustus, född Gaius Octavius och adopterad av Caesar, fullbordade övergången från republik till kejsardöme. Efter Actium‑segern 31 f.Kr. och att ha antagit titeln Augustus år 27 f.Kr., behöll han republiken som sken men styrde i praktiken enväldigt. Han erhöll imperium maius (överhög befälsrätt) och tribunicia potestas (rätt att sammankalla folkförsamlingen och lägga in veto), samt införde regelbundna folkräkningar.Augustus organiserade ett professionellt ämbetsmannasystem med kompetenta guvernörer, reformerade skattesystemet och stabiliserade myntet. Augustus byggde ett rikstäckande vägnät och postsystem, vilket förbättrade kommunikation och handel.Militärt omorganiserade han armén: legionerna minskades till 28, soldater fick fast tjänstgöringstid och pension. Han skapade pretoriangardet och använde klientstater som buffertzoner, vilket minskade behovet av militärt ständigt närvarande styrka.Augustus genomförde också sociala och religiösa reformer för att återuppliva romerska dygder: morallagar som gynnade äktenskap och barnafödande hos överklassen, återställde tempel, högtider och stärkte kejsarkulten – kejsaren hyllades som nästan gudomlig.Hans storslagna stadsförnyelse illustreras av uttrycket “Jag fann en stad av tegel – lämnade den i marmor.” Forum, tempel och monument byggdes rikstäckande. Dessutom inrättade han brandkår och polis (vigiles) i Rom.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

Apollo Global Management (along with VICI Properties) struck a massive deal to acquire The Venetian Resort, Palazzo, and Sands Expo from Las Vegas Sands for about $6.25 billion. The deal split the real estate and operations: VICI bought the land and real estate assets (~$4 billion), while Apollo acquired the operating company. Apollo is responsible for running day-to-day operations including hotel rooms, casinos, dining, entertainment, and conventions. Seller financing and favorable lease terms with VICI were part of the structure, making it a complex transaction with shared responsibilitiesRegulators in Nevada approved Apollo's license to operate the properties, despite concerns tied to Apollo's past (notably its prior ownership of Caesars and founder Leon Black's controversies). To address those concerns, Apollo agreed to strict governance structures: Leon Black, though still a shareholder, would have no day-to-day control, no board seat, and would stay fully separated from decision-making for these properties. Apollo reinforced that this deal is very different from its prior stressful venture with Caesars, mainly with less leverage, clearer operational expectations, and stronger protections.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.nevadacurrent.com/2022/02/01/as-apollo-makes-license-bid-for-sands-founder-alleges-conspiracy-against-co-founder/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

När Julius Caesar korsade floden Rubicon år 49 f.Kr i strid med Romersk lag. inleddes ett inbördeskrig som blev kulmen på konflikten mellan två av republikens mest briljanta gestalter: generalen och populisten Caesar och retorikern och traditionalisten Cicero. Deras relation speglade republiken i sönderfall, där ideal ställdes mot ambition.Både Caesar och Cicero ville rikets storhet, men de hade helt olika visioner. Cicero ville rädda republiken genom lagen och vältaligheten, medan Caesar ville omforma den via personlig makt och folkligt stöd. Deras drama formade hela Roms framtid.Detta är fjärde av sex avsnitt i podden Historia Nu:s serie om Romarriket, där programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med professor Ida Östenberg professor i antikhistoria vid Göteborgs universitet.Marcus Tullius Cicero, född 106 f.Kr. i Arpinum, föddes i enkla förhållanden men nådde senaten genom sin retorik och övertygelsen att rättsstaten var central för republiken. Julius Caesar, född sex år efter Cicero i en patricierfamilj utan större inflytande, steg via militära segrar, allianser i det första triumviratet och folkligt stöd till medborgarens absoluta topp.Deras väg korsades med både samarbete och konflikt. Cicero beundrade Caesars intellekt men fruktade hans maktambitioner. Caesar såg Ciceros inflytande över opinionen och närmade sig honom mer taktiskt än ideologiskt. Under inbördeskriget försökte Caesar vinna Cicero som allierad, men Cicero valde lojalt republikens institutioner och stödde Pompejus.Cicero stod för mos maiorum – de förfädersbundna traditionerna och en maktbalans kontrollerad av senaten. Caesar använde populistiska medel – direkt folkstöd och arméstyrka – för att kringgå senaten, vilket ledde till att han samlade diktatorisk makt. Efter att ha besegrat Pompejus blev Caesar diktator på livstid 44 f.Kr., och Cicero förlorade gradvis sitt politiska inflytande. Han höll sina berömda Philippicae-tal mot Marcus Antonius, men det var redan för sent: republiken var döende.Cicero mördades brutalt 43 f.Kr. på order av Antonius, medan Caesar tidigare fallit offer för en mordkomplott i senaten. Deras död symboliserade republikens slut. Kort därefter inleddes kejsartiden under Augustus – Caesars adoptivson – och republikens ideal blev historia.Även om de stod på motsatta sidor av historiens vind, har både Caesar och Cicero lämnat ett bestående avtryck. Caesar blev urbilden för den starke ledaren. Cicero inspirerade generationer av jurister och filosofer – särskilt under renässansen och upplysningen – och är en ständig påminnelse om balansen mellan frihet och makt.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

The Secret History of Gold comes out this week. Here for your viewing pleasure is a fim about gold based on the first chapter.“Gold will be slave or master”HoraceIn 2021, a metal detectorist with the eyebrow-raising name of Ole Ginnerup Schytz dug up a hoard of Viking gold in a field in Denmark. The gold was just as it was when it was buried 1,500 years before, if a little dirtier. The same goes for the jewellery unearthed at the Varna Necropolis in Bulgaria in 1972. The beads, bracelets, rings and necklaces are as good as when they were buried 6,700 years ago.In the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, there is a golden tooth bridge — a gold wire used to bind teeth and dental implants — made over 4,000 years ago. It could go in your mouth today.No other substance is as long-lasting as gold — not diamonds, not tungsten carbide, not boron nitride. Gold does not corrode; it does not tarnish or decay; it does not break down over time. This sets it apart from every other substance. Iron rusts, wood rots, silver tarnishes. Gold never changes. Left alone, it stays itself. And it never loses its shine — how about that?Despite its permanence, you can shape this enormously ductile metal into pretty much anything. An ounce of gold can be stretched into a wire 50 miles long or plate a copper wire 1,000 miles long. It can be beaten into a leaf just one atom thick. Yet there is one thing you cannot do and that is destroy it. Life may be temporary, but gold is permanent. It really is forever.This means that all the gold that has ever been mined, estimated to be 216,000 tonnes, still exists somewhere. Put together it would fit into a cube with 22-metre sides. Visualise a square building seven storeys high — and that would be all the gold ever.With some effort, you can dissolve gold in certain chemical solutions, alloy it with other metals, or even vaporise it. But the gold will always be there. It is theoretically possible to destroy gold through nuclear reactions and other such extreme methods, but in practical terms, gold is indestructible. It is the closest thing we have on earth to immortality.Perhaps that is why almost every ancient culture we know of associated gold with the eternal. The Egyptians believed the flesh of gods was made of gold, and that it gave you safe passage into the afterlife. In Greek myth, the Golden Apples of the Hesperides, which Hercules was sent to retrieve, conferred immortality on whoever ate them. The South Americans saw gold as the link between humanity and the cosmos. They were not far wrong.Gold was present in the dust that formed the solar system. It sits in the earth's crust today, just as it did when our planet was formed some 4.6 billion years ago. That little bit of gold you may be wearing on your finger or around your neck is actually older than the earth itself. In fact, it is older than the solar system. To touch gold is as close as you will ever come to touching eternity.And yet the world's most famous investor is not impressed.‘It gets dug out of the ground in Africa, or some place,' said Warren Buffett. ‘Then we melt it down, dig another hole, bury it again and pay people to stand around guarding it. It has no utility. Anyone watching from Mars would be scratching their head.'He's right. Gold does nothing. It does not even pay a yield. It just sits there inert. We use other metals to construct things, cut things or conduct things, but gold's industrial uses are minimal. It is a good conductor of electricity, but copper and silver are better and cheaper. It has some use in dentistry, medical applications and nanotechnology. It is finding more and more use in outer space — back whence it came — where it is used to coat spacecraft, astronauts' visors and heat shields. But, in the grand scheme of things, these uses are paltry.Gold's only purpose is to store and display prosperity. It is dense and tangible wealth: pure money.Though you may not realise it, we still use gold as money today. Not so much as a medium to exchange value but store it.In 1970, about 27 per cent of all the gold in the world was in the form of gold coinage and central bank or government reserves. Today, even with the gold standard long since dead, the percentage is about the same.The most powerful nation on earth, the United States, keeps 70 per cent of its foreign exchange holdings in gold. Its great rival, China, is both the world's largest producer and the world's largest importer. It has built up reserves that, as we shall discover, are likely as great as the USA's. If you buying gold or silver coins to protect yourself in these “interesting times” - and I urge you to - as always I recommend The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.Ordinary people and institutions the world over use gold to store wealth. Across myriad cultures gold is gifted at landmark life events — births and weddings — because of its intrinsic value.In fact, gold's purchasing power has increased over the millennia, as human beings have grown more productive. The same ounce of gold said by economic historians to have bought King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon 350 loaves of bread could buy you more than 1,000 loaves today. The same gold dinar (roughly 1/7 oz) that, in the time of the Koran in the seventh century, bought you a lamb would buy you three lambs today. Those same four or five aurei (1 oz) which bought you a fine linen tunic in ancient Rome would buy you considerably more clothing today.In 1972, 0.07 ounces of gold would buy you a barrel of oil. Here we are in 2024 and a barrel of oil costs 0.02 ounces of gold — it's significantly cheaper than it was fifty years ago.House prices, too, if you measure them in gold, have stayed constant. It is only when they are measured in fiat currency that they have appreciated so relentlessly (and destructively).In other words, an ounce of gold buys you as much, and sometimes more, food, clothing, energy and shelter as it did ten years ago, a hundred years ago or even thousands of years ago. As gold lasts, so does its purchasing power. You cannot say the same about modern national currencies.Rare and expensive to mine, the supply of gold is constrained. This is in stark contrast to modern money — electronic, debt-based fiat money to give it its full name — the supply of which multiplies every year as governments spend and borrowing balloons.As if by Natural Law, gold supply has increased at the same rate as the global population — roughly 2 per cent per annum. The population of the world has slightly more than doubled since 1850. So has gold supply. The correlation has held for centuries, except for one fifty-year period during the gold rushes of the late nineteenth century, when gold supply per capita increased.Gold has the added attraction of being beautiful. It shines and glistens and sparkles. It captivates and allures. The word ‘gold' derives from the Sanskrit ‘jval', meaning ‘to shine'. That's why we use it as jewellery — to show off our wealth and success, as well as to store it. Indeed, in nomadic prehistory, and still in parts of the world today, carrying your wealth on your person as jewellery was the safest way to keep it.The universe has given us this captivatingly beautiful, dense, inert, malleable, scarce, useless and permanent substance whose only use is to be money. To quote historian Peter Bernstein, ‘nothing is as useless and useful all at the same time'.But after thousands of years of gold being official money, in the early twentieth century there was a seismic shift. Neither the British, German nor French government had enough gold to pay for the First World War. They abandoned gold backing to print the money they needed. In the inter-war years, nations briefly attempted a return to gold standards, but they failed. The two prevailing monetary theories clashed: gold-backed versus state-issued currency. Gold standard advocates, such as Montagu Norman, Governor of the Bank of England, considered gold to be one of the key pillars of a free society along with property rights and habeas corpus. ‘We have gold because we cannot trust governments,' said President Herbert Hoover in 1933. This was a sentiment echoed by one of the founders of the London School of Economics, George Bernard Shaw — to whom I am grateful for demonstrating that it is possible to have a career as both a comedian and a financial writer. ‘You have to choose (as a voter),' he said, ‘between trusting to the natural stability of gold and the natural stability of the honesty and intelligence of the members of the Government… I advise you, as long as the Capitalist system lasts, to vote for gold.'On the other hand, many, such as economist John Maynard Keynes, advocated the idea of fiat currency to give government greater control over the economy and the ability to manipulate the money supply. Keynes put fixation with gold in the Freudian realms of sex and religion. The gold standard, he famously said after the First World War — and rightly, as it turned out — was ‘already a barbarous relic'. Freud himself related fascination with gold to the erotic fantasies and interests of early childhood.Needless to say, Keynes and fiat money prevailed. By the end of the 1930s, most of Europe had left the gold standard. The US followed, but not completely until 1971, in order to meet the ballooning costs of its welfare system and its war in Vietnam.But compare both gold's universality (everyone everywhere knows gold has value) and its purchasing power to national currencies and you have to wonder why we don't use it officially today. There is a very good reason: power.Sticking to the discipline of the gold standard means governments can't just create money or run deficits to the same extent. Instead, they have to rein in their spending, which they are not prepared to do, especially in the twenty-first century, when they make so many promises to win elections. Balanced books, let alone independent money, have become an impossibility. If you seek an answer as to why the state has grown so large in the West, look no further than our system of money. When one body in a society has the power to create money at no cost to itself, it is inevitable that that body will grow disproportionately large. So it is in the twenty-first century, where state spending in many social democracies is now not far off 50 per cent of GDP, sometimes higher.Many arguments about gold will quickly slide into a political argument about the role of government. It is a deeply political metal. Those who favour gold tend to favour small government, free markets and individual responsibility. I count myself in that camp. Those who dismiss it tend to favour large government and state planning.I have argued many times that money is the blood of a society. It must be healthy. So much starts with money: values, morals, behaviour, ambitions, manners, even family size. Money must be sound and true. At the moment it is neither. Gold, however, is both. ‘Because gold is honest money it is disliked by dishonest men,' said former Republican Congressman Ron Paul. As Dorothy is advised in The Wizard of Oz (which was, as we shall discover, part allegory), maybe the time has come to once again ‘follow the yellow brick road'.On the other hand, maybe the twilight of gold has arrived, as Niall Ferguson argued in his history of debt and money, The Cash Nexus. Gold's future, he said, is ‘mainly as jewellery' or ‘in parts of the world with primitive or unstable monetary and financial systems'. Gold may have been money for 5,000 years, or even 10,000 years, but so was the horse a means of transport, and then along came the motor car.A history of gold is inevitably a history of money, but it is also a history of greed, obsession and ambition. Gold is beautiful. Gold is compelling. It is wealth in its purest, most distilled form. ‘Gold is a child of Zeus,' runs the ancient Greek lyric. ‘Neither moth nor rust devoureth it; but the mind of man is devoured by this supreme possession.' Perhaps that's why Thomas Edison said gold was ‘an invention of Satan'. Wealth, and all the emotions that come with it, can do strange things to people.Gold has led people to do the most brilliant, the most brave, the most inventive, the most innovative and the most terrible things. ‘More men have been knocked off balance by gold than by love,' runs the saying, usually attributed to Benjamin Disraeli. Where gold is concerned, emotion, not logic, prevails. Even in today's markets it is a speculative asset whose price is driven by greed and fear, not by fundamental production numbers.Its gleam has drawn man across oceans, across continents and into the unknown. It lured Jason and the Argonauts, Alexander the Great, numerous Caesars, da Gama, Cortés, Pizarro and Raleigh. Brilliant new civilisations have emerged as a result of the quest for gold, yet so have slavery, war, deceit, death and devastation. Describing the gold mines of ancient Egypt, the historian Diodorus Siculus wrote, ‘there is absolutely no consideration nor relaxation for sick or maimed, for aged man or weak woman. All are forced to labour at their tasks until they die, worn out by misery amid their toil.' His description could apply to many an illegal mine in Africa today.The English critic John Ruskin told a story of a man who boarded a ship with all his money: a bag of gold coins. Several days into the voyage a terrible storm blew up. ‘Abandon ship!' came the cry. The man strapped his bag around his waist and jumped overboard, only to sink to the bottom of the sea. ‘Now,' asked Ruskin, ‘as he was sinking — had he the gold? Or had the gold him?'As the Chinese proverb goes, ‘The miser does not own the gold; the gold owns the miser.'Gold may be a dead metal. Inert, unchanging and lifeless. But its hold over humanity never relents. It has adorned us since before the dawn of civilisation and, as money, underpinned economies ever since. Desire for it has driven mankind forwards, the prime impulse for quest and conquest, for exploration and discovery. From its origins in the hearts of dying stars to its quiet presence today beneath the machinery of modern finance, gold has seen it all. How many secrets does this silent witness keep? This book tells the story of gold. It unveils the schemes, intrigues and forces that have shaped our world in the relentless pursuit of this ancient asset, which, even in this digital age, still wields immense power.That was Chapter One of The Secret History of Gold The Secret History of Gold is available to pre-order at Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops.

Scripture Reading: Revelation 2:12-17 The third church in the letters of Christ to the seven churches was in the city of Pergamum.  Like Smyrna, it was a center for emperor worship.  There was a temple dedicated to the worship of Augustus (and subsequent Caesars) in Pergamum as well as the renowned Altar of Zeus. Christ lauds the Christians in Pergamum for their willingness to suffer and display fidelity to the Christian faith.  The problem in Pergamum was that although the Christians had publicly denounced idolatry, some of the people had privately allowed immorality (Rev 2:14) because of doctrinal corruption (Rev 2:15).  Doctrinal corruption always leads to behavioral corruption.  It is true of many Christians today.  Some condemn public evil … abortion, pornography, same sex marriage … but allow subtle sins in their own lives , like lust, hatred, neglect of prayer.  The allowance of subtle sins, often, results from haziness about Biblical doctrine.  Wrong thinking always leads to wrong behavior.  So many of our churches today need a revitalization of precise, deep-rooted, fervent truth in their programs.  Biblical truth is being replaced today, in wholesale fashion and in the name of worship, by entertainment.  While we stimulate our senses we are starving our souls.  We need clear, demanding truth from the eternal Word of God.  This is the only way our lives and our churches will remain pure light in the darkness.  He who has an ear, let him hear.

All roads do, indeed, lead to Rome!  On this episode, special guest, Joseph Atwill, independent scholar and author, will present his controversial thesis that the Roman Flavian emperors invented Christianity as a tool of political propaganda ... but that's just for starters!   Joseph's best-selling book, Caesar's Messiah, established him as one of the world's most penetrating independent scholars, rocking the field of Biblical studies and changing our modern understanding of Jesus and the Gospels forever.  Joseph uncovered what has been kept hidden from the public for millennia:  Christianity began as a highly complex psychological warfare campaign during the First Jewish-Roman War, an ambitious literature project began by the Caesars that was later honed into a potent tool of statecraft, used to this day by the oligarchy for mass pacification. Atwill has also authored  Shakespeare's Secret Messiah  about he 'Bard's' hidden war on the the Roman Catholic Church, encoded in ‘puzzle passages' in the plays, and the key to the true identity of ‘Shakespeare'.

On today’s Rickey Smiley Morning Show, listeners were brought up to speed on four major stories. First, Donald Trump signed sweeping new tariffs—steel and aluminum rates were doubled to 50%, with tariffs ranging between 10% and 50% now targeting dozens of countries including Canada, the EU, and Taiwan—raising concerns about inflation and legal challenges over their broad scope and rapid rollout. Jay-Z, in partnership with Caesars Entertainment and SL Green Properties, formally bid to bring a large-scale Caesars casino resort to Times Square, pledging $250 million in community benefits, up to 3,800 permanent New York jobs, and a projected $7 billion local economic impact. Lastly, Colorado public schools will begin teaching Black history year-round, responding to widespread advocacy and a growing push for inclusive curriculum reform—marking a shift from token months to systemic education change.
