Before you go, think about this…
The Christian and also the popular idea of the bible is that it is a history book. But no one except the clergy could read the bible until the fifteenth century, and the clergy read the Old Testament, not as history, but allegorically, as religious symbolism or morally. The New Testament brought home the lessons of the Old Testament. Only from the Reformation were people being able to read the bible in their own languages, from and then on, it was taken as history—the history of the Jews.
Give or take a few, it’s been 23771 months since the first coming of Christ ended. The Rapture can’t be long now… Can it?

During the Great Depression in America, teachers enjoyed job security, good salaries, respectability. Teaching was an admired profession, partly because learning was widely recognized as the road out of poverty. Little of that is true today. Science particularly is too often incompetently or uninspiringly done, its practitioners, astonishingly, having little or no training in their subjects, impatient with the method, and in a hurry to get to the findings of science — and sometimes themselves unable to distinguish science from pseudoscience.
