📜✨ Oh, let's dust off the scrolls and pretend we care about ancient medical trivia for a sec! Apparently, Islamic medicine wasn't just about chanting incantations and using leeches—who knew? 🤷♂️ Clearly, we all need a history lesson on how this might somehow be relevant in 2018! 🙄📚

"The Berlin Wall" teaches that no barrier stops ideas forever. Steel rusts. Concrete cracks. Guards grow tired. But hope never sleeps. Freedom always finds a way.

William Jay, a #Congregationalist minister in England, cuts straight to the point: piety without benevolence is hypocrisy. Some chase the glow of spiritual devotion by trimming away the inconvenience of time spent loving others. But faith that avoids mercy isn’t refined—it’s hollow. How will you hold devotion and active love together?

🚀 Wow, groundbreaking discovery! Or maybe just a 404 page disguised as a history lesson. 🤔 Either way, it seems our ancestors were better at #smelting than our #servers are at handling requests. 🔥💾

🔍 Ah, the British detective novel—once the darling of the middle class, now gathering dust like a monocle at a hipster's tea party. 📚 The article attempts to unravel the #mystery behind its #decline but gets lost in its own convoluted plot. 🕵️♂️ Perhaps the real mystery is why anyone needed a 2010 history lesson on it. 🤔

How We Got Here, a brief meandering #HistoryLesson
Almost 75 Years Ago The #USA Ran A Dirty #RegimeChange Through #Iran At Behest Of #BigOil.
To #US state dept. It seemed like it was going great , state sponsored torture via #SAVAK took care of dissidents run under the "royal decree" of the reinstated #Persian monarch was established in 1957, with assistance of the #CIA and #Mossad. Apparently by 1970s, everybody loved their colognes and discos, skirts on the female pop stars and university students... eventually they even got IKEA as the oil was flowing.
Apparently nowadays no one abroad fondly recollects what happened next .. and what went down in past 45 years...
When US diplomatic hostages were taken and the #IKEA closed, it's managers paying baksheesh to escape, even the US backed #Shah, and anyone with dough was fleeing across borders....The Shah retired to a home near some Saudi Sheik's and #RodStewart's in #BeverlyHills as a back home revolution imposed an exiled #SupremeReligiousLeader...and somehow for decades, under an #Ayatollah in the 21st century, even with massive US imposed #sanctions, or perhaps because of it, the #RevolutionaryGuard leadership benefit by routing billions of dollars into their coffers by controlling thru force, the country's graft, aid, and economic exports. The dissidents still disappear even if perhaps public protest is occasionally allowed in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
They are the last of the #MiddleEast stalwarts refusing to bend to western #BloodForOil imposed Imperialism, while neighbors and rivals with formerly strong leaders like Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Libya have been burnt to crisp shells of former selves.
Now the billionaire bad boy US President is threatening to nuke them...or not.

Where does the word “alphabet” come from — and what does it have to do with Israel?
It all started in ancient Canaan — the same land that became Israel.
Thousands of years ago, people there carved the first-ever alphabet. The first letters? Aleph (𐤀) and Beth (𐤁), drawn from daily life.
The Hebrews made it their own: the alef-bet — rich with meaning and spirit.
The Phoenicians spread it. The Greeks adapted it (alpha + beta). The Romans passed it on. And that’s how “alphabet” eventually landed in English.
So next time you say “alphabet,” remember:
You’re speaking a little piece of ancient Israel.#Alphabet #HistoryLesson #LanguageDevelopment #Hebrew #Letters

I saw a video of this person being disgusted by the Virginia White Sauce that they serve in Mexican restaurants here and I can see why, it’s runny as all hell. So I decided to make some and give a little history of the sauce in this video 👍🏽 #Food #tastetest #review #newportnews #virginia #filipino #virginianwhitesauce #historylesson #homemadesauce #educationalvideo #foodlover #foodenthusiast #foodhistory #cookingtutorial #deliciousfood #foodculture

DL Moody, US evangelist, writes on the parable of the Great Banquet from Luke 14. He says that selling rum is excusing oneself from Jesus’ invitation. It creates orphans and takes bread from widows.
So much of the 19thc Christian agitation vs. booze was for the social justice effects. When SJ became less popular, the less-kind then switched to a message of spiritual poison
How can we push against socially irresponsible intoxication?

This week, there's a rather silly explanation of the #JFK assasination being discussed. Its because some CIA representative published their "findings".
To date, the best and most comprehensive explanation that we've seen is this one:

CW: Instance block recommendation
@Ca_Gi
Watch #JFKto911, please.It is an important #historyLesson, and should be shown in #highSchools.
The person who apparently masterminded 911 has yet to be tried. Its likely he will die in prison without ever being convicted.
The towers #fellWithPerfectUniformity down to ground level.
There's more. Please watch #RichMansTrick, its not perfect but close. Consider watching #MichaelParenti, #WarOnYugoslavia also.
Happy Sunday to you.
