On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, we are going to show you the facts, the figures, and the horrific numbers that are so compelling that even the New World Order cannot deny their existence. I have watched endless video of newscasters, sports stars, and young people around the world caught on tape falling over dead like so many birds falling off a wire. We told you this was going to come, we warned as far back as early 2020 right here on this Podcast. For a little while, they were able to keep things under wraps as the Biden administration secretly colluded with main stream media and social media, censoring everyone who dared to speak the truth. When the death rates started rising, with young people spontaneously dying, narratives were written and rewritten to attempt to keep up. Then, in a classic case of hysterical overreach, they rolled out something called ‘Sudden Adult Death Syndrome', and that's when the wheels started coming off the bus. The bus has since crashed into the concrete dividers, and that brings us here to Day 987 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve. All aboard!! Today we bring you the sickening proof of people who have died suddenly from something that is so explosive, this article will be banned if I say it. All this and more on this special edition of the Prophecy News Podcast.

Episode Notes From everyday social blunders to corporate scandals and social issues, denial is a common strategy used to address or rather ignore problems. On this episode, SunAh is joined by Dr. Jared Del Rosso, Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology & Criminology at the University of Denver and author of “Denial: How We Hide, Ignore, and Explain away Problems.” Dr. Del Rosso breaks down the common strategies of denial that we ourselves engage in as well as those we commonly encounter and how we can disrupt denial in order to affect social change.

"Healing doesn't happen when we're muscling through it", says our guest Melissa Spaulding. Melissa is a Clinical Mental Health Counselor and EMDR Practitioner based in Utah, and is our guest for episode one seventy six of Above Ground Podcast.  Melissa Spaulding is a CMHC at Guided Wellness Counseling of George, Utah. Melissa's mission is to help women move past their past and to live an adventurous life. Melissa helps women work through trauma, depression and anxiety.  One tool in Melissa's arsenal is EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitazation & Reprocessesing. This mode of therapy allows the receiptient to resolve unprocessed traumatic memories in their brains. There are three brains; the head, the heart and the body and as Bessel van der Kolk taught us,  the body keeps the score.  Melissa looks at our memories like sticky notes. When we think of sticky notes they are usually so you can take a number or name or notation. Something imortant at the time, but may not be necessary to hold on to long term. That's where EMDR comes in. It helps you clear the mental sticky notes and stop holding on to memories that no longer require you to hold on to them.  Melissa Spaulding can be found at guidedwellnesscounselingut.com. She can also be found on Instagram @guidedwellnesscounseling It's a wrap on epsiode one seventy six and we thank you so much for listening for another week.

When Sandra Peniamina was killed, her husband admitted he had done it and was initially charged with and convicted of murder, sentenced to life behind bars. But an archaic law that has been around since men duelled with pistols, has been used to allow him to reduce that sentence with a claim she provoked him. Today The Quicky team investigates the laws of provocation and what needs to happen for them to change.

We speak with Jess today about her book, newly released in the US “See What You Made Me Do:  The Dangers of Domestic Abuse That We Ignore, Explain Away, or Refuse to See” which offers a primer on the  gendered nature of violence,  the ways in which society enables and excuses male entitlement to power over, and the normalization and erasure of men's violence against women  our media and discourse.

Overview - Does Evolution Explain Away An Intelligent Designer. Acts 4:23-26. The title of the sermon is pretty much what I talk about today as my major focus. The apostles come to their fellow Christian family members to tell them the good news of the outcome of the trial with the religious leaders, and they rejoice together and start to shout out or pray, “Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them,”. And we take their profession of a great creator God, and speak about whether or not evolution (macroevolution, the science of one species evolving unto another) really does explain away the God that the disciples were praying to here, or whether there is any evidence for an intelligent designer God, the ones that the disciples prayed to here in Acts 4. Our journey today is very deep, but Power packed with evidence. Is there any evidence to suggest that evolution (macro), is true? Is there really any evidence to suggest that an intelligent designer God is really real? And if so, and we can see evidence of a creator god, which god are we talking about then, as the people of the world believe in many different gods. So, which god is the real God, and is there a way we can know FOR SURE? Or does everyone in the world just worship one god, but just interpret that god in their own way, hence all the different religions really just lead to the same god? I discuss and answer all of these powerful, and good questions in this message today. So click the play button, and hold on to your seats, as the God, Jesus Christ, that I believe in, is taking us for an interesting spiritual off-roading journey today. May God richly bless you today, as you seek Him Pastor Ed.

Steve Volk, senior writer at Philadelphia Magazine, 2013 National City and Regional Magazine Award finalist, and author of Fringe-ology: How I Tried to Explain Away the Unexplainable - And Couldn’t, joined us for an hour this week. We almost immediately found a sort of kinship with Mr. Volk, and by halfway through the conversation we were discussing the questionable writing decisions of certain Marvel Comics’ characters. The conversation is as captivating as it is endearing, which is precisely how we’d describe Mr. Volk. We ran into a few technical hiccups throughout the conversation - as is the nature of cross-country communication - but we were able to fix almost all of the issues in post-production. Enjoy. See you next week.

August 6, 2011. Steve Volk joins us to discuss his monumental new work "Fringe-ology: How I Tried to Explain Away the Unexplainable--and Couldn't." One of the most fascinating discussions in the history of our show, touching upon numerous areas within the paranormal and the dividing lines between true believers and skeptics.

James Mann is author in residence at Johns Hopkins University’s Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies and the author of Rise of the Vulcans, About Face, and Beijing Jeep. He was previously the Los Angles Times Beijing bureau chief. In his new book, The China Fantasy, Mann explores two scenarios popular among the policy elite. The "Soothing Scenario" contends that the successful spread of capitalism will gradually bring about a development of democratic institutions, free elections, independent judiciary, and a progressive human rights policy. In the "Upheaval Scenario," the contradictions in Chinese society between rich and poor, between cities and the countryside, and between the openness of the economy and the unyielding Leninist system will eventually lead to a revolution, chaos, or collapse. Against this backdrop, Mann poses a third scenario and asks, What will happen if Chinese capitalism continues to evolve and expand but the government fails to liberalize?
