Indeed, religion allows people to imagine that their concerns are moral when they are highly immoral – that is, when pressing these concerns inflicts unnecessary and appalling suffering on innocent human beings. This explains why Christians like yourself expend more “moral” energy opposing abortion than fighting genocide. It explains why you are more concerned about human embryos than about the lifesaving promise of stem-cell research. And it explains why you can preach against condom use in sub-Saharan Africa while millions die from AIDS there each year.

“Charism” is the Greek word used in the New Testament for “favor” or “gratuitous gift.” Charisms, or spiritual gifts, are special abilities given to all Christians by the Holy Spirit to give them power both to represent Christ and to be a channel of God’s goodness for people. Whether extraordinary or ordinary, all charisms ought to be exercised in the service of God.

Project Blue Beam
Project Blue Beam is a conspiracy theory that claims NASA and the United Nations are planning to create a new world order through a staged, technologically simulated second coming of Christ or an alien invasion. The theory suggests that advanced holographic projections and low-frequency electromagnetic waves will be used to manipulate people’s thoughts and create a global crisis, leading to a totalitarian world government.
The idea was popularized in the 1990s by Serge Monast, a Canadian journalist and conspiracy theorist. However, there is no evidence to support these claims, and mainstream experts dismiss them as baseless speculation.
