Why did God choose to reveal Himself through a sacred text? Were there no other ways? Does God still inspire scriptures today?

"Cultural trends now fashionable in the West favour an egalitarian approach to life. People like to think of human beings as the output of a perfectly engineered mass production machine.

The epidemiologist Marc Lipsitch thinks that social distancing will have to continue, in one way or another, hopefully in milder forms and in correlation with other activities. Lipsitch is the author of a study suggesting that social distancing may be necessary, possibly intermittently, until 2022.

In terms of short-term benefits to one's reputation, or monetary benefits, the illusion of deceit is intoxicating.

The majority chose £125,000—they would rather have the possibility...

Although grief is a universal experience, we respond differently to its onslaught, so it's no wonder that words meant to comfort often add more suffering to an already heavy burden.
