More stories of deception in the headlines and confirmation of past deception/bias.
First up is a great article on the real state of the Arizona border and what is really actually being sent. Politicians say they are sending 3000 National Guard Troops, but 30 show up in Arizona. We have set aside $600 million to aid increased border protection but where is it being used? The gap between the talk and action is wide. Maybe we used some of them money on those billboards.
Next up BBC is admitting that it had a left leaning bias that is has been working to correct.
Finally, a news article comes out on one of the leading physicist for the big bang theory has changed his mind.
God had nothing to do with the creation of the universe. It can all be explained by their chaos theory.
His reasoning for the change of heart?
They discovered another planet orbiting a single sun in another galaxy.
This in his words “… makes the coincidences of our planetary conditions – the single Sun, the lucky combination of Earth-Sun distance and solar mass – far less remarkable, and far less compelling as evidence that the Earth was carefully designed just to please us human beings.”
Stay watchful and grounded in the Bible, Gods Word has never been wrong.
Fun statistic:
Did you know that one-quarter of the Bible is prophecy? The Bible is a pretty big book.
Did you know that 4000 prophecies in that Bible have already come true down to the last detail?
If 4000 out of 5000 prophecies have already occurred exactly as the Bible predicted they would, you might want to pay attention to the rest.
The 1000 yet to be fulfilled are regarding the last days before Christ’s return, and they are being checked off the list right now.

Stay watchful, and view the world through the third lens of scripture….

Bureau of Land Management sign in Arizona, “DANGER – PUBLIC WARNING, TRAVEL NOT RECOMMENDED, Visitors May Encounter Armed Criminals and Smuggling Vehicles Traveling at High Rates of Speed.”(CNSNews.com) – Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said requests by Arizona law enforcement personnel and Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) for 3,000 National Guard troops along the state’s border with Mexico have been answered so far with 1 percent of that number deployed there this week.
“We have a whopping 30 [National Guard troops] this week that are showing up,” Babeu told CNSNews.com. “It’s less than a half-hearted measure designed to fail.”
But the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has placed 15 signs along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 that links San Diego with Phoenix and Tucson warning travelers of drug cartels and human trafficking operations.
“DANGER – PUBLIC WARNING, TRAVEL NOT RECOMMENDED,” read the signs placed along Interstate 8. “Visitors May Encounter Armed Criminals and Smuggling Vehicles Traveling at High Rates of Speed. Stay Away From Trash, Clothing, Backpacks, and Abandoned Vehicles.”
“BLM Encourages Visitors To Use Public Land North of Interstate 8,” the signs say.
“I think the American people are outraged that we can fight wars half-way around the world, send our nation’s treasury and our most precious resources – our American heroes that serve in the military — and yet here in our own country somehow they believe it’s okay for us not to have a secure border,” Said Sheriff Babeu.
“And that it’s okay to put up signs in my county and parts of America to surrender parts of our country to foreign born criminals,” Babeu added, “warning our own American citizens to stay out.”
Pinal County (Ariz.) Sheriff Paul BabeuIn May, President Barack Obama said he would deploy 1,200 National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border to help quell the violence there, which is less than half of the 3,000 troops requested by Babeu, Cochise County Sheriff Larry Dever, Sen. McCain and Sen. Kyl for Arizona’s border during a press conference on Capitol Hill in April.
The Obama administration has said it will deploy National Guard troops to the southern border incrementally to eventually have 1,500 troops in place. In addition, $600 million in “emergency border protection funding” was approved in legislation the president signed into law in August.
Babeu said the warning signs are 70 to 80 miles from the border and just 30 miles from Phoenix, the fifth largest city in the United States.

BBC had “massive bias to left:” director general
The director general of the BBC admitted Thursday that his organisation had been guilty of a “massive bias to the left” but said “a completely different generation” of journalists now works at the broadcaster.
Mark Thompson told the right-of-centre Spectator magazine that there was an institutional bias when he joined the organisation, reinforcing the findings of a 2007 internal report which concluded that greater efforts were required to avoid liberal bias.
“In the BBC I joined 30 years ago, there was, in much of current affairs, in terms of people’s personal politics, which were quite vocal, a massive bias to the left,” Thompson said.
“The organisation did struggle then with impartiality. And journalistically, staff were quite mystified by the early years of Thatcher.”Now it is a completely different generation. There is much less overt tribalism among the young journalists who work for the BBC,” he added.
The 2007 report criticised the organisation?s slow response to the rise of Euroscepticism and immigration concerns, which it said were considered “‘off limits? in terms of a liberal-minded comfort zone.”
Outlining his hopes for the relationship between the national broadcaster and thenew Conservative-led coalition government, Thompson said: “What we want is an effective and businesslike relationship with government — it’s not about personal relations.”

Stephen Hawking: God did not create Universe
There is no place for God in theories on the creation of the Universe, Professor Stephen Hawking has said.
He had previously argued belief in a creator was not incompatible with science but in a new book, he concludes the Big Bang was an inevitable consequence of the laws of physics.
The Grand Design, part serialised in the Times, says there is no need to invoke God to set the Universe going.
“Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something,” he concluded.
‘Planetary conditions’
In his new book, an extract of which appears in the Times, Britain’s most famous physicist sets out to contest Sir Isaac Newton’s belief that the universe must have been designed by God as it could not have sprung out of chaos.
Citing the 1992 discovery of a planet orbiting a star other than our Sun, he said: “That makes the coincidences of our planetary conditions – the single Sun, the lucky combination of Earth-Sun distance and solar mass – far less remarkable, and far less compelling as evidence that the Earth was carefully designed just to please us human beings.”
He adds: “Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing.
“Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist.
“It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going.”
The book was co-written by US physicist Leonard Mlodinow and is published on 9 September.
In his 1988 bestseller, A Brief History of Time, Prof Hawking appeared to accept the role of God in the creation of the Universe.
“If we discover a complete theory, it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason – for then we should know the mind of God,” he said.
