Ralph welcomes Pulitzer Prize winning reporter, Gretchen Morgenson, co-author of “These Are the Plunderers: How Private Equity Runs – And Wrecks – America,” where they name names in this “heads we win, tails you lose” system of predatory capitalism.Gretchen Morgenson is the senior financial reporter for the NBC News Investigative Unit. A former stockbroker, she won the Pulitzer Prize in 2002 for her “trenchant and incisive” reporting on Wall Street. Previously at the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal,” she and coauthor Joshua Rosner wrote the bestseller Reckless Endangerment: How Outsized Ambition, Greed, and Corruption Led to Economic Armageddon about the mortgage crisis. Their latest book is These Are the Plunderers: How Private Equity Runs—and Wrecks—America.The way corporate criminals get their way is by trying to make things too complex and too abstract for your daily lives. But when Gretchen [Morgenson] talks about these plunderers, and let's call them “predatory capitalists”, don't think that you're not being affected— whether your loved ones are patients in nursing homes, whether you're workers being laid off, whether you're consumers being gouged for drug or healthcare prices, whether your community's going to be hollowed out because the company that was doing okay was taken over by these vultures and closed down after they extracted the wealth.Ralph NaderIt's interesting now that David Rubenstein is retired [from the Carlyle Group], he's a philanthropist. This is what these wealthy people do once they've finished their careers and made so much money. They become philanthropists… We've all read about David Rubenstein and Steve Schwarzman and Leon Black and Henry Kravis. We read about them constantly. They are always lauded for their brilliance and their billionaire status. What we just don't hear about are the people on the other side of their transactions.Gretchen Morgenson, co-author of “These Are The Plunderers.”The disappointing thing about the Justice Department is that when they bring these cases against the companies that are doing Medicare fraud (like in the Manor Care situation), they don't move up the corporate ladder to the owner of the company. The Justice Department does the work on the particular company that is owned by private equity, but they don't go up the ladder. And that has a way of allowing the firms—like Carlyle in the Manor Care case— to escape scrutiny and to escape accountability. So that would be an ideal thing to change.Gretchen Morgenson co-author of “These Are The Plunderers.”In Case You Haven't Heard 1. Amid the debt limit fight, progressives are calling for President Biden to invoke the 14th amendment, which they believe would allow Biden to bypass the Republican House and raise the debt limit without concessions like adding further work requirements to public benefits. In a press conference by the Senate progressives, John Fetterman of Pennsylvania said "This is the whole reason why the 14th Amendment exists, & we need to be prepared to use it. And, if our unelected Supreme Court Justices try to block the use of the 14th amendment and blow up our economy, that's on them.” However, POLITICO reports that the administration is privately telling progressives to stand down. Instead, the White House seems more interested in negotiating with Speaker McCarthy, even if that means caving to outrageous Republican demands.2. As the Writers Guild strike grinds on – at a cost of $30 million per day according to Deadline – the  Screen Actors Guild is now on the verge of their own strike. Last week, SAG-AFTRA's National Board voted unanimously to ask members for strike authorization, and the Daily Beast reported that SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher urged members to “make three a charm with an emphatic ‘yes' for a strike authorization vote!” adding that to do so would be “an unprecedented show of solidarity.” An actor's strike against the studios has not happened since 1980.3. Last week, Senator Bernie Sanders introduced the Healthy Families Act of 2023, which would guarantee 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave. This bill features a companion in the House, led by Rep. Rosa DeLauro, and carries the support of 122 members of the House and Senate. Sanders is quoted saying “It is time to end this absurdity...It is time Congress passed this legislation to ensure workers receive the basic dignity and benefits that they deserve.” The introduction of this legislation comes on the heels of the reintroduction of a Medicare for All bill in this Congress.4. A damning new report in the Wall Street Journal indicates that “Jeffrey Epstein discovered that Bill Gates had an affair with a Russian bridge player” and later used this knowledge to attempt to threaten the Microsoft co-founder. The report goes on to say that “at the time, Epstein was trying to set up a multibillion-dollar charitable fund with JPMorgan...[which] hinged on securing support from Gates.” When this money was not forthcoming, Epstein resorted to blackmail. This gives the public our clearest idea yet as to the nuts and bolts of the Epstein criminal enterprise.5. POLITICO is reporting on a rumor concerning Senator Dianne Feinstein, Representative Adam Schiff, and the Pelosi family. The former Speaker herself has endorsed Schiff in the upcoming California Senate primary and has long groomed him as a political protege. He currently holds a $15 million advantage over his nearest opponent. Yet, if Feinstein – who has appeared deeply addled in recent public appearances – were to resign, Governor Newsom would have the opportunity to appoint a Senator to the vacant seat, and has pledged to appoint a Black woman. Rep. Barbara Lee, a progressive Black congresswoman representing the Bay Area, is among the candidates to replace Feinstein, and would therefore have a strong chance of being appointed. Per the report, Nancy Corinne Prowda, Pelosi's eldest child, is a top aide to Senator Feinstien, and a “Pelosi family confidant” insinuated that she is angling to keep Feinstein in her seat, not for the benefit of Californians, but for the benefit of Adam Schiff.  6. The LA Times reports that “Nearly three dozen deputies have been ordered to come in for questioning, show their tattoos and give up the names of any other deputies similarly sporting ink connecting them to…the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department's…deputy gangs.” This demand came in a letter from county Inspector General Max Huntsman to 35 deputies suspected of being members of either the Executioners or the Banditos, two of the most notorious among these police gangs. Huntsman is quoted saying “The Los Angeles Sheriff's Department conducted incomplete internal affairs investigations into the Banditos and Executioners, failing to identify all members…California's new gang law addresses discrimination based on race and gender and gives inspectors general enhanced authority to collect evidence. We're using that authority to complete the investigations by directing deputies to show their tattoos and tell us who else has them.”7. The Sierra Club is currently in the midst of a labor battle. The New Republic reports that, in an attempt to resolve their budget shortfall, the group has announced “massive layoffs,” the scale of which still remains unclear.  This announcement set off a “fractious battle” between the top leadership and the Progressive Workers Union, which has two bargaining units representing nearly 400 Sierra Club employees around the country. Thus far union has filed two unfair labor practice charges with the National Labor Relations Board; the first “accuses the Club of failing to provide necessary information for bargaining,” and another alleging that “management is violating its collective bargaining agreement and is bargaining in bad faith.”8. Democracy Now! reports that conservative, US-backed Ecuadoran president Guillermo Lasso has “dissolved the opposition-led National Assembly in a move widely seen as an effort to block efforts to impeach him.” Lasso dissolved the assembly as it held its first hearing on corruption and embezzlement allegations against Lasso. Lasso invoked a never-before-used constitutional power allowing him to “rule by decree” until new elections are held.9. In an almost unbelievable story, Live Science is reporting that Orcas have “sunk 3 boats in Europe and appear to be teaching others to do the same.” The piece goes on to say that scientists believe the attacks are coordinated, and began following an orca experiencing a "critical moment of agony." Further, they believe “the behavior is spreading among the population through social learning.” This is a stark reminder that we as a species impact our environment and that, sometimes, there are consequences.

American president, Joe Biden has issued an executive order authorising sanctions against Sudan. He called the violence a tragedy and a betrayal of the Sudanese people. Liberia is scheduled to hold its presidential election in October this year but what are the prospects for the country's future and what impact will Liberians in the diaspora have on the poll? Plus a woman in Rwanda who is helping women open businesses and create jobs. She particularly helps students from rural parts of the country find work in the fashion industry. South Africa, known for having 11 official languages is on course to add a 12th - SIGN language. The National Assembly passed the Constitutional Eighteenth Amendment Bill, which will make the necessary changes to the Constitution to recognize a 12th official language.

Tunisia in North Africa was the birthplace of the Arab Spring, a wave of popular uprisings that shook or toppled authoritarian regimes in the region. But, after a decade of fragile democracy, in 2019 a new strongman, President Kais Saied, swept to power. He directed his campaign at young Tunisians, promising an end to corruption. There was optimism but the Covid pandemic had battered the economy and exposed - as it did in many other countries - the weaknesses of the health system. Mr Saied insisted Tunisia's democratic system was not working so he used emergency powers to sack the prime minister, close the National Assembly and suspend the constitution - essentially paving the way to rule by decree. Last week one of Tunisia's most prominent opposition leaders, Rached Ghannouchi, who is also the leader of Tunisia's largest political party, was imprisoned. He's the latest in a long line of critics jailed by the president. So, is this the final nail in the coffin for Tunisia's fledgling democracy? What is President's Saied's vision? And what, if anything, can the world do to prevent the Arab Spring's one success story joining its long list of failures?

This week, on the podcast, host Eva Hartling is having a special conversation about gender equity in the workplace, and her guest is Yolande James, Executive Director, Diversity and Inclusion, for French-language broadcaster Radio-Canada. A lawyer and mediator, Yolande James became the first Black woman elected to Quebec's National Assembly in 2004, and the first person from the Black community appointed to a Government of Quebec cabinet position when she was named Minister of Immigration and Cultural Communities in 2007. In her role, Yolande leads Radio-Canada's inclusion and engagement initiatives, providing support and guidance to departments and teams on their diversity and inclusion projects. She also helps the public broadcaster achieve its diversity recruitment, promotion and development targets. This conversation takes place just as we release a special report about gender equity in the workplace, along with our partners at Randstad Canada. In today's world, where talent scarcity, an aging population, and a borderless, tech-driven, post-pandemic business context make up our reality, it comes as no surprise that building an inclusive, equitable and accessible working environment yields better results in terms of performance and engagement. But do companies really practice what they preach? For Canadian women, things are not as glossy as companies might make them appear. According to national research conducted by Randstad Canada, women feel the pace of change is slow. Despite increased awareness around equity, women say they still aren't offered the same opportunities as men. In this conversation with Yolande James, we explore how and why implementing gender equity ensures a work culture where everyone can thrive, and where women can feel like the proper elements are in place for a positive experience that supports their growth. For more about our report on gender equity, head to thebrandisfemale.com.........This season of our podcast is brought to you by TD Canada Women in Enterprise.

Twenty years since the US invasion of Iraq / Protests sweep France as National Assembly accepts Macron's pension cuts without a vote / Pressure grows on another US bank amid controversy over Credit Suisse takeover

Highlights:  ●      “Furious riots are sweeping the nation of France after French President Emmanuel Macron announced that he was going to bypass parliament and impose by fiat his own pension reforms on the French people.” ●      Macron's proposal is very unpopular and was doomed to defeat by the French Parliament, and that's when he in effect turned the proposal into a dictate. He invoked what's called Article 49 of the French Constitution, which allows the president to unilaterally pass any law without a vote.” ●      “The great self-proclaimed defenders of Democracy, the Bullies in Brussels, are absolutely silent over this. And of course, they are because we all know nothing that the collective western powers, nothing that the dolts in DC or the Bullies in Brussels or the Demons in Davos, NOTHING that they do has anything to do with democracy.” ●      “There's already a no-confidence vote scheduled for later today in the National Assembly; it's more a symbolic vote, Macron will probably weather that vote, barely, but even if he didn't it, it doesn't have a direct effect on him. What this does do is it politically paralyzes Macron, even worse than he already is.”   Timestamps:  [01:09] Why riots are sweeping the nation of France [03:29] How no one at the EU is calling out Macron for his blatantly authoritarian, anti-democratic tactics [06:34] Why the Macron government is on the verge of collapse Resources:  ●      Learn how to protect your life savings from inflation and an irresponsible government, with Gold and Silver.

The French President has used a special constitutional power to force his pension reforms through the national assembly. Crowds converged on Place de la Concorde in response to raising the retirement age from 62 to 64. The plans had sparked two months of heated political debate and strikes. Also on the programme: the prospective meeting between the leaders of China and Russia; and greenwashing - we hear that there are now a number of associated terms - but what are green hushing, green crowding and green lighting?

The government's proposed changes to the pension system have partly been turned down by the country's parliament. Article 2, which would have set up a "senior employment index" to support older workers, did not get a majority. The measure was meant to accompany the raising of the legal retirement age from 62 to 64. Also in the show, we'll take a look at Air India's massive order of aircraft from Boeing and Airbus and the nomination of Pharrell Williams at the head of meanswear at Louis Vuitton.

It's Wednesday, January 25th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Pakistan's new law punishes Christians with 10-year prison sentence Last Tuesday, Pakistan's National Assembly passed a bill to make the country's blasphemy laws more stringent. Under the new bill, the person who insults Islam's false prophet Mohammed faces 10 years in prison and a fine of over $4,000. Pakistan's blasphemy laws already criminalize insulting Islam which carries a death sentence or life in prison. Religious minorities, including Christians, are concerned the new measure will be used to target them. Christian Solidarity Worldwide President Mervyn Thomas said the bill was “approved without debate by Pakistan's parliament despite the fact that existing blasphemy legislation has resulted in extra-judicial killings and countless incidents of mob violence based on false accusations.” Former homosexual pleads with nations to pray for his trial As The Worldview reported yesterday, a Christian charity worker in Malta, the island near Sicily, is facing criminal charges for allegedly discussing and advertising “conversion practices.” Last year, 33-year-old Matthew Grech told PMnews Malta about how he stopped practicing homosexuality after converting to Christianity. In the interview, Grech said, “I understood that in the Bible, homosexuality . . . is a sin. Just like every other sin, one can repent from it and ask God for forgiveness and ask Him for strength to overcome.”  Grech now faces trial on February 3. Malta was the first country in the European Union to ban so-called “conversion therapy” in 2016.  He said he hopes his case will overturn the ban. GRECH: “Joined with me in prayer, join with us here in Malta, that God would use the situation to overturn things and to revoke this evil ban on so-called ‘conversion therapy.' And that it would have a ripple effect across the nations, so that righteousness would prevail again.” Isaiah 61:11 says, “For as the earth brings forth its sprouts, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to sprout up before all the nations.” Thousands attend France's March for Life On Sunday, thousands of people took to the streets of Paris for the French March for Life. The annual event coincides with the anniversary of the country's legalization of abortion in January 1975. This year's march protested plans by the French government to legalize euthanasia and to include support for abortion in their constitution. America's explosive $31 trillion debt Last Thursday, the U.S. government hit its $31.4 trillion debt ceiling established by Congress. The Treasury Department implemented extraordinary measures to temporarily keep the government from defaulting on its debt while lawmakers debate terms for raising the limit. For decades, both Republicans and Democrats have been increasing the debt ceiling to finance wars, tax cuts, social security, emergency measures, and other federal spending.  Under Republican Presidents George W. Bush and Donald Trump, the national debt grew $12.7 trillion dollars. It has grown $13 trillion under the Democrat administrations of Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Parents concerned with children's potential anxiety A new report by Pew Research found that the top concern of U.S. parents is if their children struggle with anxiety and depression. When it comes to aspirations, most parents prioritize financial stability and job satisfaction for their children. Parents also said it was very important for their kids to be honest and ethical, hardworking, and helpful to those in need. However, very few parents said it was important for their children to share their own religious beliefs. Protestant parents were notably more likely to want their children to carry on their religious beliefs. Psalm 78:4 says, “We will not hide them from their children, but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the LORD, and His might, and the wonders that He has done.” Oldest human alive today just died at age 118 And finally, Lucile Randon, known as Sister André, died at the age of 118 in the southern French city of Toulon last Tuesday. She was the oldest known person in the world at the time. The nun devoted her life to service, caring for children during World War II and spent decades supporting the elderly and orphaned at a hospital. She's lived under 18 French presidents, including President Emmanuel Macron who sent her a handwritten birthday note last year when she turned 118. Sister André not only survived the Spanish Flu pandemic in 1918 but also beat COVID-19 at the age of 116.

진행자: 조혜림, Naomi Garyan 1. Gen Z vs Gen Z: How their enemies at work are now themselves 기사요약: 기존에 MZ와 기성세대 간의 갈등을 다룬 TV프로그램들이 인기를 끌었다면 요즘엔 MZ들 간의 안보이는 신경전을 다루는 프로그램들이 늘어나며 많은 이들의 공감대를 얻고 있다. [1] For millennials and Generation Z – those who were born between the early 1980s to early 2010s, respectively – clashing with their bosses at work has been popular material for television comedy in South Korea over the past few years. But recently, the skits took a new turn, with many of them poking fun at how their real enemy at work is not their bosses, but themselves. *skit: (조롱하는) 촌극, 희문 *take a new turn: 새로운 국면이 전개되다 *poke fun: 조롱하다, 바보취급하다, 놀리다 [2] In the episode's last scene, the boss suggests, "How about we all get some Starbucks coffee?" Instead of offering to get the coffee as junior staff are often expected to, the new recruits say that they want Iced Americanos. The other MZ staff awkwardly smile while cursing to themselves until finally the only male employee grudgingly offers to go. *recruits: 신입사원 *awkwardly: 어색하게 *grudgingly: 마지못해, 꺼리다 [3] In recent years, the rise of “young kkondaes” has become a major topic of conversation in Korea. The term "kkondae" is widely used among Koreans to refer to baby boomers who create an uncomfortable workplace dynamic through their condescending and authoritarian attitude. However, this term has evolved to include all age groups. Young kkondaes are millennials or Gen Z who demand absolute obedience from fellow millennial or Gen Z colleagues, despite being only a few years apart in age or career experience. *become a major topic: 화제가 되다 *condescending: 거들먹거리는, 잘난 체하는 *authoritarian: 권위주의적인 기사원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20221225000066 2. 'Half-baked' chips act falls short of drastic corporate tax cuts 기사요약: 소위 ‘K칩스법'이라는 국내 반도체 산업 지원을 위한 법안의 개정안이 최근 국회 문턱을 넘었다. 대기업의 반도체 설비투자에 관한 세액공제율을 기존 6%에서 8%로 인상했지만 다른 나라와 비교해 턱없이 낮은 상황이라서 업계 미래 경쟁력이 약화될 거란 우려가 커지고 있다. [1] South Korea last week passed a revision bill being deemed the "Korean chips act," expanding tax benefits for investments in the semiconductors industry. But the bill has done little to appease stakeholders in the industry, who said the increased tax cuts are too little to boost their competitiveness against other countries that have adopted their own chips laws. *deemed: 간주되다, 여겨지다 *revision bill: 개정안 *do little: 거의 도움이 되지 않다 *appease: 달래다, 진정시키다 *stakeholders: 이해당사자, 주주 [2] The National Assembly on Friday passed the revision bill to the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, which raised the corporate tax break for facility investment to 8 percent for large corporations such as Samsung Electronics and SK hynix, from the previous 6 percent. *tax break: 세금 감세 조치 [3] “The global standard for semiconductor investment is 25 percent, the US is at 25 percent, Taiwan is at 25 percent and for China, it is 100 percent. South Korea sets it at 8 percent. How would that foster competitiveness?” Rep. Yang posed. The Samsung Electronics executive-turned-lawmaker switched to a political independent upon her exit from the main opposition Democratic Party last year. *foster: 조성하다, 발전시키다 *political independent: 무소속 기사원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20221225000069

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the speeches that became a byword for fierce attacks on political opponents. It was in the 4th century BC, in Athens, that Demosthenes delivered these speeches against the tyrant Philip II of Macedon, father of Alexander the Great, when Philip appeared a growing threat to Athens and its allies and Demosthenes feared his fellow citizens were set on appeasement. In what became known as The Philippics, Demosthenes tried to persuade Athenians to act against Macedon before it was too late; eventually he succeeded in stirring them, even if the Macedonians later prevailed. For these speeches prompting resistance, Demosthenes became famous as one of the Athenian democracy's greatest freedom fighters. Later, in Rome, Cicero's attacks on Mark Antony were styled on Demosthenes and these too became known as Philippics. The image above is painted on the dome of the library of the National Assembly, Paris and is by Eugene Delacroix (1798-1863). It depicts Demosthenes haranguing the waves of the sea as a way of strengthening his voice for his speeches. With Paul Cartledge A. G.

After reading Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France, a member of the French National Assembly wrote to Burke, asking for more of his analysis on the revolution then underway. In reply, Burke wrote a long letter which included a sustained attack on the preeminent philosopher of the revolution: Jean-Jacques Rousseau. This analysis identifies that at the heart of the uprising in France lies an attempt to totally transform education - and in particular, its role in forming norms around sexual behavior.Richard M.

As France's parliament passes a bill that would enshrine the right to abortion in the constitution, a new film explores the time before it was legalised in 1975. The curator of Père Lachaise in Paris on life and biodiversity in France's most famous cemetery. And Walt Disney's 11th-century French roots. France might be on the way to becoming the first country to have abortion rights protected in the constitution, after a recent vote in the National Assembly passed with a large majority. Not everyone thinks it is necessary – legal scholar Gwenaele Calves says abortion rights are already well protected in France. Meanwhile a new film, Annie Colère (Angry Annie), tells the story of the MLAC (Movement for the freedom of abortion and contraception) whose work carrying out illegal abortions in the early 70s helped pave the way for the law legalising abortion in 1975. (Listen @0') Three million people flock to Paris' Père Lachaise cemetery every year, drawn to the tombs of Frederic Chopin, Jim Morrison and other famous people buried there.

(Listen @16') Walt Disney was born on 5 December 1901 in the US, but his distant ancestors hailed from Normandy and gave him his name. (Listen @11'50'') Episode mixed by Vincent Pora.

It's Thursday, October 27th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Chinese suffer with world's worst internet freedom Freedom House reports China has the worst internet freedom in the world for the eighth year in a row. China implemented new guidelines back in September to restrict religious content online. The Chinese Communist Party also held their 20th National Congress last week. President Xi Jinping secured a third term at the congress as Christians expect more persecution under the regime.  Officials detained a Christian evangelist and his wife for sharing the Gospel on the streets leading up to the congress. Chen Wensheng is part of the Xiaoqun Church in Hunan and has refused, like many others, to join the state-regulated Three-Self Church. Despite the government's oppression, there are now an estimated 100 million Christians in China.  French Senate rejected pro-abortion law Last week, the Senate of France rejected a draft law to make abortion a constitutional right. The draft law made abortion and contraception a right and accessible for free. Despite the rejection, more draft laws on the same issue are headed to the National Assembly next month. The French Protestant Evangelical Committee for Human Dignity warned, “including abortion in the Constitution would authorize a death penalty for unborn children.” France already voted earlier this year to legalize the murder of unborn babies up to 14 weeks, an increase from 12 weeks. Coach Joe Kennedy gets job back after prayer-related firing A Washington State football coach will be reinstated by next March after losing his job for praying after games. The Bremerton School District originally put Coach Joe Kennedy on leave in 2015. Kennedy's case went all the way to the Supreme Court. In June, the high court ruled the Constitution protected Kennedy's freedom to pray on the field with students. On Tuesday, a stipulation filed in a U.S. District Court said Kennedy would get his job back in the next six months.    Kennedy told Newsmax he wants to get back on the team and continue giving thanks to God. KENNEDY: “I just want my constitutional right and be back up there on the football field with my team and just having the right to be able to think God in America these days. That's all I want.” Psalm 107:1-2 says, “Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Let the redeemed of the LORD say who, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy.” NY Supreme Court: Give people jobs back after COVID firings Meanwhile in New York, the state's Supreme Court ruled Monday that city employees in the Big Apple who lost their jobs for refusing to get a COVID-19 shot must be reinstated. The ruling applies to 1,400 employees and orders the city to give them back-pay. The ruling stated: “The Health commissioner cannot create a new condition of employment for City employees. The Mayor cannot exempt certain employees from these orders… Being vaccinated does not prevent an individual from contracting or transmitting COVID-19.” Americans look to government for change A new survey from Barna found most U.S. adults look to national, state, or local government for creating meaningful change. Even practicing Christians were more likely to expect meaningful change through the federal government than through religious organizations or churches. However, Christians were much more likely to expect meaningful change from churches than the general adult population. U.S. homes prices down by 2.4% American home prices are down 2.4% in recent months. However, they're still up over 40% since the COVID-19 pandemic.  Mortgage payments on median-priced homes continue to rise as mortgage rates climb. Rates on a 30-year-mortgage reached 7.16% last week, a 20-year record.   Swiss evolutionists steal God's glory And finally, scientists recently discovered over 50 sea creatures, once thought to be silent, that can actually communicate. Gabriel Jorgewich-Cohen at the University of Zurich, Switzerland used microphones and cameras to study 53 species around the world. He told BBC News about the wonders of sea turtle communication: “[They] will sing from within their egg to synchronize hatching. If they call from inside, they all come out together and hopefully avoid being eaten.” While the scientists were quick to jump to false evolutionary conclusions, Genesis 1:21 says, “God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.”  Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Thursday, October 27th, in the year of our Lord 2022.
