Proper 11 Readings: Genesis 18:1-14; Psalm 15; Colossians 1:21-29; Luke 10:38-42 (Fr. David Smith, preaching)

The Late Show on CBS will come to an end next year after a 33-year run. The news came just days after the TV host referred to a $16m settlement between Trump and CBS parent company Paramount over an interview on their network as a “big fat bribe”. CBS has described the show's cancellation as “purely financial”. But, as the Guardian's Washington DC bureau chief David Smith tells Reged Ahmad, others are not so sure.

And Another Thing With Dave, by Dave SmithHost: David Smith Guest: Spirited JourneyIn this engaging episode, David Smith and Spirited Journey explore critical questions around ideological biases within social psychology, parental rights, and the sensitive topic of gender identity in youth. They unpack a recent study investigating political leanings and perceived hostility within social personality psychology, shedding light on how these biases might influence research and social narratives.The conversation then turns to the complex and often controversial issue of schools managing gender identity matters without parental involvement. They discuss the ethical dilemmas surrounding withholding information from parents, the risks of medical interventions such as puberty blockers, and the mental health challenges underlying gender dysphoria. The hosts advocate for a balanced, neutral government stance that emphasizes science, longitudinal studies, and individualized approaches rather than blanket policies.Listeners will gain insights into the nuances of civil rights, the intersection of mental health and identity, and the broader societal impact of dividing advocacy into narrowly defined groups. The episode also touches on real-life cases that highlight the risks of mismanaged medical and psychological interventions, underscoring the importance of family involvement and open communication.00:00–01:00 — Overview of a study on political ideology and perceived hostility in social personality psychologists01:00–05:00 — Discussion on parental rights, biases, and neutrality in schools05:00–08:00 — Risks of secrecy around gender identity issues and potential consequences for youth mental health08:00–12:00 — Medical interventions, puberty blockers, and the importance of addressing comorbid mental health conditions12:00–16:00 — Real-life stories highlighting ethical concerns in medical and psychological treatment of gender identity16:00–20:00 — The complexity of civil rights versus single-issue advocacy and societal division20:00–22:00 — Calls for more science, research, and individualized care approaches22:00–End — Summary and reflections on government neutrality and protecting the well-being of all youthThank you for tuning in!If you are digging what I am doing, and picking up what I'm putting down, please follow, subscribe, and share the podcast on social media and with friends.

In the world of oil and gas operations, edge devices are  mission-critical. These compact, intelligent sensors operate in  the most extreme of environments, such as remote drill sites, deep wells, and hostile landscapes, where they continuously collect operational data. Best in class operators don't just throw digital at the field. They prioritize efficiency, reliability, and integrity at the edge, where human oversight is limited, infrequent, and mostly absent. But the drive to digitize oilfield infrastructure raises major challenges: reliable power, cyber threats, temperature extremes, and real-time decision-making without cloud access. David Smith, VP of Innovation at Black Pearl Technology, shares how his team builds micro-powered, field-tough sensors that handle pre-processing on-site, sip power in microamps, and run mission-critical code on the edge to avoid failures. MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) is enabling a new era of industrial sensing, complete with cyber-safe hardware that controls every component. Innovation must always serve a real-world problem—not just be a shiny gadget. From strain gauges to AI-at-the-edge, David offers an inside look into the future of smarter, safer, and smaller industrial tech.

And Another Thing With Dave, by Dave SmithHost: David Smith Guest: Spirited JourneyIn this bold and thought-provoking episode, David Smith and guest Spirited Journey engage in a deep discussion about gender identity, parental rights, education, and the role of government institutions. Using real-world hypotheticals and caller questions, they explore the slippery slope of school policies around gender pronouns and medical interventions without parental consent. They question the medical community's evolving role in gender-affirming care and share personal anecdotes about identity, expression, and societal pressure.Far from taking extreme stances, both David and Spirited Journey advocate for nuance, mental health support, and the importance of family involvement, while acknowledging the complexities of modern identity politics.00:00–02:00 – Duality and family dynamicsHow excluding family from a child's identity journey may cause long-term issues.Importance of addressing home-school identity gaps.02:00–05:30 – Slippery slope or fair concern?Can secrecy around pronouns lead to secret hormone therapies?Examining parental exclusion and government overreach.05:30–08:00 – Medical decisions and irreversible consequencesPuberty blockers, sterility, and lack of long-term studies.Birth control as a parallel example.08:00–11:00 – Equality vs ideologyAffirmation therapy vs. conversion therapy.Clarifying the pro-human rights stance of both host and guest.11:00–14:30 – Thought-provoking hypotheticalsInterracial dating and parental bias.Should schools intervene or stay neutral?14:30–18:00 – Government boundaries & school responsibilityFunding, school psychologist access, and liability concerns.Case studies: doctors “playing God” with child identity.18:00–21:00 – Identity confusion or natural variation?Spirited Journey shares a tomboy childhood perspective.Encouraging diverse expressions within binary identities.21:00–24:00 – Stereotypes and gender spectrum discussionWhy labels may do more harm than good.“There are many ways to be a woman or a man.”24:00–29:00 – Racism, parenting, and ideological overreachExploring the fine line between protection and indoctrination.Why neutrality and parental involvement are key.Thank you for tuning in!If you are digging what I am doing, and picking up what I'm putting down, please follow, subscribe, and share the podcast on social media and with friends.

Proper 10 Readings: Deuteronomy 30:9-14; Psalm 25; Colossians 1:1-14; Luke 10:25-37 (Fr. David Smith, preaching)

With foreign trade blossoming from Newport, Rhode Island, local merchants petitioned for a lighthouse at Beavertail Point at the southern tip of Conanicut Island in the town of Jamestown, and a 69-foot-tall wooden tower was first lighted in 1749. It was the third light station in the American colonies. The 45-foot square granite lighthouse that stands today was built in 1856. The lighthouse is located within Beavertail State Park, and the Beavertail Lighthouse Museum Association (BLMA) preserves and manages the light station. The museum occupies two former keepers' houses and two other buildings. Beavertail Light Station, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont Nancy Beye is the president of the Beavertail Lighthouse Museum Association. She's also a councilwoman on the Jamestown Town Council and owner of the Jamestown Early Learning Center. David Smith is a board member of the BLMA, and he has been involved with the development of many of the exhibits in the museum at Beavertail. Varoujan Karentz is on the board of the Beavertail Lighthouse Museum Association and is the author of three books and numerous articles. His book Beavertail Light Station is the most comprehensive history available on this historic location.

 It's Friday, May 30th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Christian burials denied in Odisha State, India In mid-May, villagers in Odisha State, India opposed the burial of a deceased Christian, reports International Christian Concern. Their claim? A Christian funeral would defile the gods and the land of the village. Sadly, authorities were unable to convince villagers to allow the burial, and the body was taken to another location. Although Christian burials have long been denied in India, these denials are increasingly occurring as a method of persecuting Christians in Odisha State. Three independent investigations conducted in Odisha between March and April pointed to an alarming rise in the number of Christians denied burial rights. The investigations concluded that the absence of state laws allocating burial land for Christians has enabled the trend. FBI investigates leaked Dobbs Supreme Court ruling FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announced Monday that he and FBI Director Kash Patel are going to “re-open” an investigation into the consequential 2022 leak of the U.S. Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, reports Life News. On May 2, 2022, Politico published a draft of a Supreme Court opinion, authored in February by Justice Samuel Alito, in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. The official ruling was not released until June 24, 2022. The draft opinion made it evident that the Supreme Court was all but certain to rule in favor of the Mississippi pro-life law at the center of the case. A majority of justices on the Supreme Court were prepared to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision and the 1992 Planned Parenthood v. Casey decision which had extended broad federal legal protections to the practice of abortion. Politico cited a “person familiar with the court's deliberations” to confirm that Justices Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett had already voted in favor of Alito's opinion following oral arguments in December of 2021, yielding a five-justice majority to strike down Roe and Casey, as the pro-abortion precedents are known. Pro-abortion activists made clear that they intended to target pro-life pregnancy resource centers and Catholic parishes in response to the Dobbs leak. Indeed, more than 100 pro-life centers and churches were firebombed, smashed, ransacked, or vandalized with pro-abortion graffiti and threatening messages, reported Fox News.   Then, five weeks after the Dobbs leak, but before the official ruling was announced, a man flew from California to D.C. with the intention of going on a killing spree. His target? The pro-life Supreme Court justices. Nicholas Roske went to Kavanaugh's house first located in Montgomery County, Maryland. He was armed with a pistol and equipped with gear to break into the justice's house undetected. Appeals court paused block of Trump's retaliatory tariffs A federal appeals court granted the Trump administration's request to temporarily pause the Wednesday ruling of the  U.S. Court of International Trade which struck down most of President Donald Trump's tariffs, reports CNBC. The judges of the trade court had found that the 1970s-era law Trump had invoked to enact those tariffs, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, does not “confer such unbounded authority” to presidents. The nationwide, permanent block they imposed covered all of the retaliatory tariffs that Trump issued in early April as part of his sweeping “Liberation Day” plan to reshape international trade with the rest of the world. Without a doubt, the Wednesday ruling destabilized a pillar of Trump's economic agenda. Illinois House approves physician-assisted suicide bill And finally, on Thursday, the Illinois House narrowly passed a controversial physician-assisted suicide bill (SB 1950 Amendment 2) by a vote of 63 to 42, with two members cowardly voting “present,” reports the Illinois Family Institute. Oddly enough, 11 state representatives did not cast a vote on the legislation. David Smith, the Executive Director, prayed this prayer on a video which was shared with fellow Christians. SMITH: “I pray, Lord, that many of these lawmakers who are on the fence would choose to err on the side of life and not on death. Lord, I pray that your people would rise up throughout the state of Illinois. I pray that many church leaders would speak up and let their state lawmakers know that this is unacceptable. Illinois should never accept or normalize suicide!” At its April 2025 annual meeting, the Illinois State Medical Society overwhelmingly voted to oppose legalizing physician-assisted suicide. This decision reflects the stance of most Illinois doctors against prescribing lethal medications. They took an oath to do no harm and certainly not to provide the means for their patients to end their lives. If you live in Illinois, send an email to your State Senator here. Scripture tells us that every person is created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27), and thus each life holds immeasurable value. Moreover, Exodus 20:13 records this command: "Thou shall not murder."
