The following are excerpts from an article titled “Big bang experiment may reveal dark universe: CERN” which was published by Reuters on March 8, 2010. Read these excerpts carefully, especially the parts highlighted in red.
Dark matter, which scientists believe makes up 25 percent of the universe but whose existence has never been proven, could be detected by the giant particle collider at CERN, the research center’s head said Monday.
Rolf-Dieter Heuer told a news conference some evidence for the matter may emerge even in the shorter term from mega-power particle collisions aimed at recreating conditions at the “Big Bang” birth of the universe some 13.7 billion years ago.
“We don’t know what dark matter is,” said Heuer, Director-General of the European Organization for Nuclear Research on the Swiss-French border near Geneva.
“Our Large Hadron Collider (LHC) could be the first machine to give us insight into the dark universe,” he said….
“If we can detect and understand dark matter, our knowledge will expand to encompass 30 percent of the universe, a huge step forward,” Heuer said….
One widely publicized aim of the LHC is to try to find the theoretical particle that gave mass to the matter that spewed out after the primeval explosion and thereby made possible the emergence of stars, planets and eventually life — on earth and perhaps elsewhere….
“We know everything about this particle. The only thing we don’t know is if it exists,” said Heuer, a German physicist who took over at CERN 14 months ago. “And if it does not exist, we are bound to find something that is very much like it.”
So, let me see if I’ve got this straight. Scientists don’t know what dark matter is, and according to this article “its existence has never been proven,” but they believe that it makes up 25 percent of the universe…. And they’re looking for a “theoretical particle,” which they say they know everything about except whether or not it exists.
And this whole experiment has been concocted to prove a theory purporting that nothing existed until the “primeval explosion,” and everything evolved from the nothing that was there billions and billions of years ago.
And they call this science??? I wonder how many billions and billions of American taxpayer dollars are being used to fund this bogus “experiment.”
A Bible verse comes to mind as I ponder all of this: The fool has said in his heart, “There is not God.” (Psalm 53:1)
Nuff said.

A British Christian organization reports children as young as 5 years old soon could have their names added to “hate registers” of people accused of showing disrespect to homosexuality in violation of “hate crimes” laws.
According to the Christian Institute, a nondenominational charity committed to upholding the truths of the Bible, already a 10-year-old child was added to the registry after he called a friend a “gay boy.”
The case was reported by the London Daily Mail, which said teachers are being ordered to write up even minor incidents as “serious bullying” and add them to a database that will follow a student through a school career.
The report confirmed that when small children use “homophobic” or racist words without knowing what they mean, they still must be written up.

AUSTIN, Texas — Oftentimes those who preach sexual abstinence have been told to stop trying to impose their beliefs on others. But what if science could prove sexual permissiveness does great damage to future sexual happiness?
That’s what Dr. Joe McIlhaney of the Medical Institute for Sexual Health in Austin says. New research shows that sleeping around now could ruin your chances of having a happy, fulfilling marriage later.
“Neuroscientists have produced a lot of information in just the last few years. This is new,” he told CBN News.
The sex reseacher recently co-authored the book “Hooked: New Science on How Casual Sex is Affecting Our Children“ with Dr. Freda McKissic Bush. McIlhaney said the book contains, “The most modern neuro-science available to man today.”
Chemicals Create a Powerful Bond
Research using brain scans now shows powerful chemicals are released during sex that should create a powerful, everlasting bond.
“When women are skin-to-skin with a man, their brain secretes oxytocin that causes them to bond emotionally to that man. Men secrete a hormone called vasopressin when they’re having that kind of intimate behavior. And that hormone has even been called ‘monogamy hormone’ for men. And it bonds them to the woman,” McIlhaney explained.
This oxytocin is so overwhelming in a woman’s brain that just a 20-second hug can cause a female to become bonded to a male.

The Shaping of the American Mind: The Diverging Influences of the College Degree & Civic Learning on American Beliefs is the fourth major study from ISI’s civic literacy initiative on the relationship between higher education, civic knowledge, and citizenship.
Conventional wisdom holds that there is a strong connection between how much people know and how much college education they receive—the more college, the more knowledge. ISI’s research, however, demonstrates that on most campuses, this seemingly obvious correlation is quite marginal where knowledge of America’s history and institutions is concerned.
In 2006 and 2007, ISI administered a sixty-question multiple-choice exam on knowledge of American history, government, foreign affairs, and market economics to over 14,000 college freshmen and seniors nationwide. In both years, the average freshman and average senior failed the exam.

![]() Bradley Johnson and one of the two banners he was ordered to take do |
A federal judge in California has handed down a scathing ruling against a school that required one of its teachers to remove signs celebrating the role of God in American history from his classroom walls.
As WND reported, math teacher Bradley Johnson had banners hanging in his classroom at Westview High School in San Diego, Calif., for more than 17 years with phrases like “In God We Trust” and “All Men Are Created Equal, They Are Endowed by Their Creator,” only to have the principal order them torn down during the 2007 school year.
But Johnson filed a lawsuit alleging the order a violation of his constitutional rights, and the teacher has now been rewarded with a court victory and a powerfully-worded ruling.

A report that the state of Texas forwarded the DNA from hundreds of newborn babies to a military database without parental permission or knowledge raises some very alarming questions about what was done and why, according to a national expert in DNA privacy.
![]() |
The Texas Tribune, an online publication founded by a former editor of the Texas Monthly and a longtime owner of the Texas Weekly, recently published a story about the Department of State Health Services in Texas giving some 800 DNA samples to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology’s DNA Identification Laboratory.
The actions were uncovered as part of the publication’s review of nine years’ worth of e-mails over the collection of babies’ DNA, which recently was targeted by a lawsuit.

Should “George” be allowed to play alongside “Cindy” and “Cathy” on a girls basketball team and then later accompany
them into the privacy of a locker room or shower facility that formerly was “biology-based”?
That’s the question that will be addressed Monday when the Maine Human Rights Commission meets to talk about “transgendered” students.
Guidelines have been proposed that would specify what commission officials believe all schools must do to make accommodations for any biological boy who asserts he’s female, or biological girl who asserts she’s male.
Under discussion will be the suggested guideline:
Transgender students must be allowed access to bathrooms that correspond with their gender identity or expression or, if they prefer, to existing single stall bathrooms.
With respect to locker rooms and shower facilities that involve undressing in front of others, transgender students must be provided with accommodations that meet their needs and that take into account the legitimate privacy concerns of all student involved.
Steve Martin, host of the Aroostook Watchmen Radio Program, said the proposed guidelines go far beyond what the people in Maine were promised when the 2005 human rights law passed.

The Lower Marion School District, which runs two high schools in this suburb of Philadelphia, gives an Apple laptop (MacBook) to all 2,300 of its high-school students for use during the school year.
Programs like this throughout the country have proven popular with students, teachers and parents. The computers enhance the students’ capabilities in understanding assignments, keeping track of deadlines for work and researching topics, for example. Teachers and parents can better track performance in the classroom and with homework assignments.
But Harriton High School student Blake Robbins discovered a more sinister use of these computers by the school administration – a use that students, teachers and parents were not aware of.
Is this happening in your school district?
On Nov. 11, Blake was summoned to the office of Vice Principal Lindy Matsko, who told him that he had “engaged in improper behavior in his home.”
On the CBS “Early Show Saturday Edition,” Blake recounted that Ms. Matsko accused him of selling drugs and taking pills and showed him a photograph of him at home taken by the webcam in his MacBook as proof. Blake said he told the vice principal that the photo showed him eating candy.
The incident revealed that the school district had the power to remotely turn on the webcam in the MacBook at any time and record the images.

A book for high-school students glorifies communists, socialists and at least one activist who has called for “resistance” against the U.S. government, WND has learned.
The work, “Americans Who Tell the Truth,” has been used in schools across the U.S., according to its author. The book, however, does not inform readers of the extremist backgrounds of the personalities upheld as heroes.
Robert Shatterly, creator of the book project, told WND the work features portraits and brief descriptions of dozens of personalities who are “role models for citizenship in the attempt to win democracy.”
Shatterly said his book, and a related traveling art exhibit featuring the same personalities, have been featured in many U.S. schools.
