It's Monday, July 14th, 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 American churches are being attacked A trend of American churches being attacked appears to be emerging, reports International Christian Concern. On April 24, a Texas woman, identified as Natasha Marie O'Dell, pleaded guilty to intentionally setting fire to Seattle Laestadian Lutheran Church in Snohomish County, Washington, on August 25, 2023.  The blaze destroyed much of the church, and damage to the property was placed at $3.2 million. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, O'Dell admitted to telling “various acquaintances that she was angry about churches and specifically with [that one].” An Arizona man, identified as Zimnako Salah, was found guilty of a hate crime on April 3, 2025, after he targeted Christian churches with bomb threats. Salah intentionally attempted to intimidate Christians because of their faith, according to a special finding from a federal jury.  After visiting four churches in Arizona, California, and Colorado, Salah left backpacks at two of them to cause fear among congregants. Although there were no bombs in the packs, improvised explosive device components were found in Salah's storage unit. The man had also consumed violent videos of the Islamic State group on social media. In John 15:18, Jesus said, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” FBI closes the case on Jeffrey Epstein The late Jeffrey Epstein was an American financier and child sex offender who assaulted 36 girls, some as young as 14, reported the Miami Herald.  For years, it's been rumored that Epstein did not act alone, but trafficked these girls to his prominent and wealthy male clients. Allegedly, Epstein used such a list to blackmail them. In an unsigned DOJ/FBI memo, which was released Sunday, July 6th, it says, “This systematic review revealed no incriminating ‘client list.' There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions.” The memo also said, “After a thorough investigation, FBI investigators concluded that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on August 10, 2019. This conclusion is consistent with previous findings, including the August 19, 2019 autopsy. …  From the time Epstein was locked in his cell at around 10:40 pm on August 9, 2019, until around 6:30 am the next morning, nobody entered any of the tiers in the Special Housing Unit.” Homosexual abortionist gets slap on wrist for leaving "half" of baby inside woman An Illinois abortionist -- who left up to “half” of an aborted baby inside a woman and a coin-sized hole in her uterus  -- will be allowed to resume his practice after paying a $5,000 fine and undergoing extra medical education, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Back in March, LifeSiteNews covered the case of Equity Clinic founder and medical director Dr. Keith Reisinger-Kindle, once the subject of fawning media coverage for promoting so-called abortion “access” and people's “safety.” According to a lawsuit by an unidentified ex-client from Indiana, the abortionist had allegedly violated that commitment to patient safety in dramatic fashion. In April 2023, a pregnant mother went to abortionist Reisinger-Kindle for an abortion at approximately 22 weeks. After she called the next day to complain of cramping, she was told to take a painkiller. However, when she went to the Community Hospital South Emergency Room in Indianapolis,  physicians subsequently found fetal remains in her right pelvis, which had to be surgically removed, as well as a uterine hole roughly the size of a quarter or half-dollar. The woman's lawsuit says, “The patient was found to have half of a deceased pre-born human being, in the right pelvis of the patient, with evidence of severe and intentional trauma. The skull was crushed and no brain was present.” Isaiah 59:7 describes abortionist Keith Reisinger-Kindle and his ilk well. “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” Leftist argues Dems should become “pro-porn” party to win back men And finally, a left-wing writer who is emphatically pro-abortion and pro-homosexual, recently actually argued that the Democrats should style themselves as the “pro-porn” party to win back ground on the “free speech” platform and entice young men away from the Republicans, reports Elizabeth Johnston, the Activist Mommy. In a bizarre commentary for The Nation, that's on par with a satire piece, writer Elie Mystal states that the Democrats should strategically embrace pornography, saying there's “an opportunity here for the Left to pick up the banner of free speech. An opportunity to become the ‘porn party.'” Responding to the Supreme Court's decision in Free Speech Coalition v. Paxton, which upheld Texas's requirement for age-verification on porn sites, Mystal cited the tired old cliché of Republican hypocrisy to make the case for embracing porn as a political strategy. In Proverbs 7:10, 21-26, King Solomon warns his son of the seductive ways of an immoral woman. In many ways, his warnings are equally applicable to the lure of pornography.  It says, “Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent. ... With persuasive words she led him astray;  she seduced him with her smooth talk. All at once, he followed her like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer stepping into a noose till an arrow pierces his liver, like a bird darting into a snare,  little knowing it will cost him his life. “Now then, my sons, listen to me;  pay attention to what I say. Do not let your heart turn to her ways  or stray into her paths. Many are the victims she has brought down;  her slain are a mighty throng.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, July 14th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Loving kindness can be one of the most transformational practices for individuals, and for societies at large. As a practice, it sounds like this: May I be loved. May I be cared for.
