elfsNever know when a creepy phrase will enter the vocabulary. In an article on atomic clocks, the inventor of a new microsized atomic clock, made the mistake of referring to the core of the device as a "physics package". Those of us who have a hobby of watching the creepy know that "physics package" is a popular synonym for something else.
We are saved! A California school has suspended an 11-year-old girl for being a menace to her fellow students. No more will she threaten their health and well-being with her cartwheels.
And more for the pile: Teens of same-sex parents do fine. No noticeable difference in socialization patterns between them and their peers. Huzzah!
File under "incredibly stupid": A report to The World Bioethics Congress claiming that widespread availability of prenatal diagnostic techniques are causing parents to abort girl children in India has suggested that all prenatal diagnostic techniques be banned. Oh, yeah, that's a brilliant compromise. Forward into the dark ages!
God has graciously granted America--though she doesn't deserve it--a reprieve from the agenda of paganism.
