Are humans really 98% chimp—or is that just evolutionary hype dressed up as science? The human-chimp DNA comparison has been used for decades to argue that we're nothing more than highly evolved primates. But what if the numbers don't tell the full story? Join us for a mind-blowing conversation with Dr. Jeffrey Tomkins, a geneticist and respected creation scientist with a Ph.D. in genetics from Clemson University. With cutting-edge research and decades of experience, Dr. Tomkins dismantles the popular myth of near-identical DNA and reveals the deeper genetic distinctions that point not to common ancestry, but to common design. This isn't just about genes—it's about identity, origins, and the narrative that defines humanity. Are we accidental cousins of chimps… or uniquely created in the image of God? Don't miss this episode—it may change the way you see yourself.

Send us a textSouth Carolina has always been enormously proud of its military Collegiate institution, the Citadel, in Charleston S.C. Senator Ernest Hollings was a proud graduate of the University as was so many very prominent people throughout the state. Graduates include Governor Justin Hagood, Pat Conroy, Charles Tew, Greg Davis, State Senator Stephen Goldfinch, U.S. Representatives Nancy Mace, Gresham Barrett, and State Representative Thad Viers are all among the list. In this episode we listen in as Senator Strom Thurmond, himself a graduate of Clemson University back in the era when it was a military college, introduces Senator Bob Dole and welcomes him to the Citadel. In this episode, we will also see the University bestow on Bob Dole an honorary Doctorate of Laws, as they welcome a genuine American hero to the podium to address the class of 1994. We are not sure but we think , given the date of this event May 14, 1994, that the Senators left The Citadel and then headed to another event that honored Vietnam Veterans in Columbia S.C. It was there that our host, Randal Wallace, got a chance to meet Bob Dole and snap the only photograph he had with the Senator, back in the era before cell phone cameras made pictures an easy thing to get, and that photo is now the cover art for this Podcast series.

It's Friday, September 19th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Iranian Christian denied a retrial for practicing his faith Mehran Shamloui, an Iranian Christian convert from Islam, has been denied a retrial for his case by the Iranian Supreme Court, reports International Christian Concern. Shamloui was arrested in 2024 and, in March 2025, was sentenced to 10 years and 8 months in prison simply for participating in a house church. The charges against him included “propaganda activities contrary to Islamic law,” and “membership in groups opposing the state.” He was released from jail after he posted bail in late 2024. He fled the country and intended to travel to Europe, but was stopped in Turkey. He was deported to Iran in July 2025 because he was missing formal documentation. Shamloui is currently serving his sentence in Iran's Evin Prison, a notoriously deplorable institution known for mistreating its prisoners, including Christians. Hebrews 13:3 says, “Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.” Iran is an Islamic Republic and a known persecutor of the Christian community. Bibles written in Farsi, the official language of Iran, are strictly prohibited, as is discussing Jesus with Muslims to share the gospel with them. Hadi Ghaemi, the executive director of The Center for Human Rights in Iran, said, “The Christian community in Iran is facing a crisis. The Iranian authorities are abducting growing numbers of Christians and throwing absurd national security charges at them in order to imprison them for years for doing nothing other than peacefully practicing their faith.” NY Attorney General vs. TX Attorney General over Abortion Kill Pill Far-left Democratic New York Attorney General Letitia James is intervening in Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's attempt to prosecute an abortionist for mailing abortion kill pills from one state to the other to undermine Texas's pro-life laws, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Paxton first filed his lawsuit in December 2024 against abortionist Margaret Carpenter, founder of the “Abortion Coalition for Telemedicine.” Paxton alleged that Carpenter “unlawfully provided a Collin County resident with abortion-inducing drugs that ended the life of an unborn child and resulted in serious complications for the mother, who then required medical intervention.” Carpenter is not licensed to practice medicine in Texas. Subsequently, in February 2025, Judge Bryan Gantt of North Texas ordered Carpenter to stop sending abortion kill pills into the state and to pay a $100,000 fine. (Carpenter also faces charges out of Louisiana for the same). So far, New York officials have protected the abortionist from consequences via the state's shield law, which bars cooperation with other states concerning laws against abortion. Paxton has challenged the shield law and sued the Ulster County, New York clerk who refused to enforce the fine. Americans celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination held accountable The Secret Service, several U.S. airlines, Office Depot, and Nasdaq said they were among more than 30 employers that have sanctioned or fired employees in reaction to their disturbing statements about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, reports The Washington Post. Regarding the Secret Service, an agent named Anthony Pough wrote on Facebook, “If you are mourning this guy .. delete me,” in reference to Kirk's killing. Pough accused Kirk of spewing “hate and racism on his show.” Roughly three dozen workers are reported to have been suspended or fired over their responses to Kirk's murder, including employees of Clemson University, MSNBC, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the Carolina Panthers. Plus, several local fire departments and school districts said they had also suspended or terminated employees over their remarks. WLBT-TV reports that Lauren Stokes, the executive assistant for the Vice Chancellor of Development at the University of Mississippi, was fired for her anti-Kirk comments. She allegedly wrote, “For decades, yt [white] supremacist and reimagined Klan members like Kirk have wreaked havoc on our communities, condemning children and the populace at large to mass death for the sake of keeping their automatic guns. … So no, I have no prayers to offer Kirk or respectable statements against violence.” WNDU reports that 18-year-old Camryn Giselle Booker, a college student at Texas Tech, was expelled after a video of her publicly celebrating Charlie Kirk's death went viral. In the video, she is jumping around and yelling at students paying tribute to Kirk on the Lubbock, Texas campus. Listen. BOOKER: “Your homie dead. He got shot in the head. Your homie dead. He got shot in the head.” After Booker was expelled, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott posted this comment on X. “Definitely picked the wrong school to taunt the death of Charlie Kirk. Thanks Texas Tech!” Felicia Branch, a professor at the University of Arkansas, is on administrative leave over her vile social media post, reports the Arkansas Times. She wrote, “No, I will not pull back from CELEBRATING that an evil man died by the method he chose to embrace. Don't tell someone who has been targeted by people like him how to feel, how not to post, how not to celebrate, that he can no longer inflict his brand of evil.” She added that Kirk is “an evil person [who] is no longer on this earth causing immense suffering.” Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders has called for Professor Felicia Branch to be fired. ABC yanked Jimmy Kimmel over Charlie Kirk comments And yesterday, ABC indefinitely suspended late-night host Jimmy Kimmel for inappropriate comments he made about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, reports Newsbusters.org. Here's the soundbite from Monday night. KIMMEL: “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid, [Tyler Robinson], who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.” Conservative talk show host Erik Erikson called out the leftist comedian. He said, “What Kimmel was doing was participating in the creation of the leftwing talking point that Kirk's assassin was on the right. He did not have to participate. [Kimmel] chose to participate and circulate what was obviously, even on Monday, a lie. On top of that, it was not funny. It was hectoring and cruel.” Erikson reported that the primary reason Kimmel is no longer on the ABC program schedule is because of the influence of Nexstar, a moderately right-leaning group of stations, that controls 32 significant ABC affiliates including New Orleans, Nashville, Syracuse, Albany, and Grand Rapids and Lansing, Michigan. Nexstar decided to stop airing Kimmel's program. Star Spangled Banner's God-honoring fourth verse And finally, on September 14, 1814, Francis Scott Key penned the immortal words of “The Star Spangled Banner.” Key was a Washington attorney sent to the British navy to secure the release of a prisoner during the War of 1812. During his mission, the British bombarded Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. The sight of the American flag continuing to fly over the fort despite the barrage inspired the verses in the song. Congress officially made it the national anthem over a hundred years later. The opening verse is well known. But the later verses are more obscure. Listen to David Hedrick, a former Marine, sing the last half of verse four. HEDRICK: “Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: “In God is our trust;” And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave.” (applause) Indeed, Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, September 19th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Trigger warning: discussion of political violence, threats, and campus unrest. In this episode, the focus turns to Clemson University and the uproar over professors accused of normalizing political violence. Featuring JD Vance's fiery remarks on the Charlie Kirk Show, the discussion ranges from personal stories of harassment — including Vance's own children heckled at Disneyland — to claims of widespread acceptance of violence among the political left. The host highlights chilling anecdotes, viral videos of children repeating disturbing rhetoric, and the deeper cultural influence of media and education on young minds. Expect a raw, urgent analysis that contrasts “ballots not bullets” with what the host describes as the left's growing tolerance for violent expression. With sharp criticism of Clemson's handling of its faculty, accusations of double standards in political discourse, and warnings about the next generation being radicalized, this episode delivers a no-holds-barred call for accountability. For listeners who want a passionate breakdown of campus culture wars, political hypocrisy, and the fight to defend free expression without crossing the line into violence.
Clemson University faces mounting backlash after professors allegedly celebrated and encouraged political violence—testing the boundaries of free speech and taxpayer-funded employment. South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson steps in with a legal takedown, making clear that advocating murder is not a protected political position but incitement to violence. From angry alumni demanding refunds to comparisons with workplace and neighborhood norms, this episode exposes the radical double standard and explores whether universities are normalizing political terrorism under the guise of free expression.
Trigger warning: discussion of assassination, threats, and political violence. In this episode, the focus sharpens on Clemson University and the wider cultural climate that critics argue is normalizing political murder. JD Vance joins with searing commentary — sharing personal stories of his children harassed at Disneyland, friends targeted in their neighborhoods after Charlie Kirk's death, and the shocking statistic that large portions of self-identified liberals openly justify political violence. The conversation weaves through disturbing anecdotes: children reflexively cheering Trump's “death,” professors allegedly excused for inflammatory rhetoric, and media outlets accused of distorting Charlie's words to justify his murder. The host contrasts left-wing tolerance of violence with the right's stated commitment to “ballots, not bullets,” pressing the case that taxpayer-funded institutions like Clemson must choose between condemning or tacitly enabling extremism. Expect an urgent, uncompromising breakdown of propaganda, hypocrisy, and the battle to root out what the host calls “the normalization of murder.” This episode pulls no punches in demanding accountability from universities, media, and political leaders who refuse to draw a clear line against violence.

Representative Jordan Pace joins the show to unleash fury over Clemson University's refusal to immediately fire employees who publicly celebrated the assassination of Charlie Kirk and called for more political killings. From explosive tweets to six-figure salaries funded by taxpayers, the scandal is raising questions about free speech, accountability, and the role of tenure in protecting radical rhetoric. Pace lays out his proposal to freeze Clemson's $300 million in state funding, end tenure across South Carolina universities, and finally strip DEI initiatives from taxpayer budgets. With pressure mounting from legislators, college Republicans, and even former President Trump, will Clemson's leadership act — or face defunding?
From hit lists on social media to calls for political violence on campus, this episode dives into the shocking trend of glorifying assassinations and the urgent need to hold those responsible accountable. We discuss Clemson University's controversial handling of faculty and staff celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk, the double standards in political response, and how students and citizens are taking action to stop this culture of violence. But this isn't just about politics—it's also about a cultural shift. The aftermath of Charlie Kirk's assassination has sparked a surge of young people, especially men, returning to church and exploring faith for the first time. Hear stories of a generation grappling with grief, morality, and hope, and discover why this moment is shaping the future of conservative activism, religious engagement, and civic responsibility.

Discovered accidentally in the 1930s, studied as a possible psychiatric wonder drug, used by the CIA in highly unethical clandestine mind control experiments for project MKUltra during the cold war, adopted by the counterculture hippies of the summer of love, LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is viewed by some for its potential to expand human consciousness and promote peace and by others for its potential to completely destroy our society.

Guest: Karen McWaters MOT, OTR/LEarn 0.1 ASHA CEU for this episode: https://www.speechtherapypd.com/courses/the-importance-of-motor-and-language-learning-for-effective-Originally Aired: September 2023As SLPs, we can often look at speech and language development in isolation, as our formal assessments encourage us to do; however, it is imperative that we learn from our occupational and physical therapy colleagues regarding motor learning principles and how they parallel those of language development. When we get out of our box, we can further understand the children we work with and their capacities. Erin and Karen will discuss their journey of collaborating within this context and how they learned from each other to help the children they worked with reach further potential.About the guest: Karen is an Occupational Therapist living and working in Greenville, South Carolina. She received her BS in Public Health from Clemson University and her Masters of Occupational Therapy degree from Georgia State University in Atlanta. Her professional interests include sensory processing and praxis, neurodevelopment, DIR/Floortime, functional vision, and (most recently) trauma informed care. Karen loves that this job enables partnerships with families to meet each child's unique needs and harnesses the power of relationships to impact each kid's life using their motivations and interests.
A Clemson University student shares an eerie update from a seemingly ordinary lab class. Until she learns she's been working just feet from where a professor named Todd died of a heart attack decades ago. After sensing something strange in the woodshop and bathrooms, she learns from her current professor that Todd's spirit may still be active, flipping switches, turning on radios, and flickering lights when no one else is around. As the activity ramps up, she begins to wonder if Todd's trying to communicate. But how? And should he? One thing's for sure: she won't be using a Ouija board to find out.

Maggie Rose was born and raised in Potomac, Maryland, where she grew up eating blue crabs, attending Catholic school, and singing solos in front of her church's congregation. A self-described black sheep of the family, she headed to Clemson University in South Carolina before leaving school early to move to Nashville for a career in music. But it was her family's support that gave her the courage to make it in a very tough business, and it eventually paid off in a career that's earned her a Grammy nomination, a loyal fan base, and more than 100 appearances at the Grand Ole Opry. Her podcast, Salute the Songbird, started during the pandemic, and it's become a powerful vehicle for candid conversations with other female musicians about their experiences and challenges in the music business. Sid talks to Maggie about what it's like being a new mom, her Grammy-nominated album, No One Gets Out Alive, what it meant to perform recently in Asheville, North Carolina, and her longtime love for Old Bay Seasoning.
