Rise of the Nones
(Greg Epstein humanist chaplain at Harvard since 2005 and at MIT since 2018)
When Satan first endeavored to deceive Adam and Eve, he did so by discrediting God. His sly twisting and contradictions of God’s clear instructions stoked sin in the human heart. The resulting curse consigned the creation to decay and mortal man to eventual death.
In the generations that followed, mankind strayed further and further from the living God. Recognizing the existence of a spiritual realm beyond our physical senses, many cultures fashioned and worshiped false gods. Satan and his entourage of rebelling spirits lurked behind every idol crafted by the hands of men.
“Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition” 2 Thess. 2:3
In today’s upside-down world, there are men and women who profess to be Satanists. They laud the devil as lord and seek to purposely offend God Almighty. Their eventual recognition of truth will be tragic and swift if they pass from this life adhering to such foolishness.
Additionally, a rising chorus of people — especially in the former Christian West — now assert their rejection of any belief in God. They claim an enlightenment that frees them from belief in any deity. These self-claimed atheists instead worship humanity. Calling themselves humanists they believe that mankind will elevate its collective consciousness, leading to a utopia without suffering, want, or war.
When asked about their religious affiliation in nationwide polls, more and more young people are declaring themselves to be “nones” — meaning that they refuse to affiliate with any religion, especially Christianity (see the Pew Forum).
Our own culture’s slide into post-Christian oblivion was deceptively slow over the past century. But lately, the rush toward secularism is accelerating with shocking speed.

Biden delays Pope trip to meet with seething Squad over infrastructure bill cuts
Bizpac Review: President Joe Biden had to delay the start of his trip overseas beginning with a meeting with Pope Francis at the Vatican after threats from the ‘Squad’ and other Democrats to tank his Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework (BIF) for being rushed, weak and serving corporate interests all while the actual “pay for” for the bill’s hefty price tag remains ambiguous.
“As for My people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err, And destroy the way of your paths.” Isaiah 3:12
The president reportedly delayed his flight so that he can spend a few hours on the Hill attempting to convince Democrats in opposition to the BIF to allow its passage so that he can bring a major domestic policy win with him ahead of meetings with foreign leaders and at the U.N. Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow, Scotland.
Biden will still meet with the Pope on Friday and will hold a separate meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron. Read More HERE

A Global Oil Shortage Is Inevitable
Assessment: Just 11 months ago the United States was energy independent and a net exporter of oil. Today, Joe Biden begs OPEC to increase oil production …
- While oil and gas companies come under pressure to reduce production, the world’s thirst for new supply is only growing
- Without a significant uptick in investment, demand for oil and gas will surpass supply in the not-so-distant future
- This disconnect between the political desire for less fossil fuels and the global hunger for fossil fuels could drive the price of oil up to $100
Chronic underinvestment in new oil supply since the 2015 crisis and the pressure on oil and gas companies to curb emissions and even “keep it in the ground” will likely lead to peak global oil production earlier than previously expected, analysts say.
This would be a welcome development for green energy advocates, net-zero agendas, and the planet if it weren’t for one simple fact: oil demand is rebounding from the pandemic-driven slump and will set a new average annual record as soon as next year.
“Sheba, Dedan, the merchants of Tarshish, and all their young lions will say to you, ‘Have you come to take plunder? Have you gathered your army to take booty, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?” Ezekiel 38:13
The energy transition and the various government plans for net-zero emissions have prompted analysts to forecast that peak oil demand would occur earlier than expected just a few years ago. However, as current investment trends in oil and gas stand, global oil supply could peak sooner than global oil demand, opening a supply gap that would lead to increased volatility on the oil market, with spikes in prices, and, potentially, structurally higher oil prices by the middle of this decade and beyond.
Supply Could Peak Before Demand

“We Have A Historic Opportunity” – Sen. Wyden Releases Dems’ Plan To Tax Unrealized Capital Gains
Assessment: If ever there was a way to discourage investment in the US economy from wealthy investors, this is it. Once the tax is instituted, a trickle down to the middle class is inevitable …
Earlier this week, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen (and a handful of her fellow Democrats in the Senate) announced their intentions to help fund President Biden’s ‘Build Back Better’ agenda with a new tax on unrealized capital gains for the wealthiest Americans. The event led to this widely viewed clip of Yellen explaining that the tax on “extremely liquid assets” would only apply to the wealthiest Americans during an interview with CNN’s state of the Union.

We later learned that Democrats were setting their sights on $5 trillion of billionaire wealth extraction, something that would move the US closer to AOC’s stated goal of eliminating billionaires.
So overnight, Sen. Ron Wyden, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee (which is, by the way, different from the Senate Banking Committee) released the much anticipated details of the tax on unrealized capital gains for billionaires as Democrats are working on how they will raise enough taxes to offset the spending in particularly the second part of Biden’s ‘BBB’ plan which involves a massive expansion of the American social safety net, among other Dem agenda items.

Biden Ordered Unvetted Afghans Onto Planes Out of Kabul. Ignored Security, Packed Them In
Assessment: As for numbers, Kahl said the following were evacuated:
- About 2,000 embassy personnel
- 2,004 NATO citizens
- 5,530 Americans
- 3,335 third-country nationals
- 2,496 people with Special Immigrants Visas
- 44,874 on non U.S. aircraft
- 64,052 “at risk” Afghans
Kahl said 84 percent were Afghans “at risk of various kinds.”
The Afghan “refugee” suspected of raping of a young woman in Montana might well have been there on a direct order from President Joe Biden.
As the United States pulled out of Afghanistan in September, Biden personally told the American ambassador to Afghanistan, Ross Wilson, to send unvetted Afghans to the United States, Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) revealed yesterday.
During a hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Hawley read an e-mail from Gregory Floyd, consul general at the embassy, which said to “err on the side of excess” and pack the planes until the fuselage rivets burst. The Missouri Republican revealed the e-mail during questions for committee witness Colin Kahl, the undersecretary of defense for policy.
Kahl detailed the six categories of individuals Biden evacuated, the smallest group of whom were American citizens and embassy employees. Almost 85 percent were Afghans “at risk.”
Now those unvetted Afghans are causing problems. Aside from the rape suspect in Montana, Afghans planted at U.S. military bases have been accused of child molestation and domestic abuse. They also arrived with child brides.

‘Award-Winning’ Sexually Explicit Books Terry McAuliffe Kept in Virginia School Libraries
Breitbart: Former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D) vetoed legislation when he was in office that would have required parental notification for the use of school teaching materials that included sexually explicit content, and he is now defending his action by claiming his Republican opponent Glenn Youngkin supports book banning and racism.
“Glenn is spending his final days of the campaign focused on banning award-winning books from our schools & silencing the voices of Black authors,” the Democrat tweeted Monday.
“The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 2 Thess. 2:9-10
Folks, let’s take a step back. Glenn is spending his final days of the campaign focused on banning award-winning books from our schools & silencing the voices of Black authors. I know we can read between the lines and see these Trumpian dog whistles for what they truly are.
Twitter users, however, shot back at McAuliffe regarding the “award-winning books” his veto kept on the shelves of school libraries in Virginia …

Report: Facebook Suppressed Breitbart News Traffic by Twenty Percent
Assessment: Don’t get me started. There was a time when Facebook readers and shares, came in to Prophecy Tracker by the hundreds. Today it is a trickle. There was a time when Google searches were 50% higher than they are today. And there was a time when Editor and I would come across our own site while researching a particular topic. That was ‘BA’, before algorithms made sites like ours invisible.
The Wall Street Journal has published internal material from anonymous sources at Facebook revealing that the company introduced tools that suppressed the traffic of Breitbart News by 20 percent, and other conservative publishers by double-digit margins.
The company introduced two tools after the 2016 election that disproportionately harmed conservative publishers. The Journal highlights internal Facebook research showing that if both tools were removed, it would increase traffic to Breitbart News by 20 percent, the Washington Times by 18 percent, Western Journal by 16 percent, and the Epoch Times by 11 percent. Facebook eventually removed one of the tools while keeping the other — but it is unclear which of them had the most impact on traffic.
“And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end” Daniel 12:9
According to the Wall Street Journal, one of Facebook’s researchers feared, “We could face significant backlash for having ‘experimented’ with distribution at the expense of conservative publishers.”
The story also revealed that Breitbart News is relegated to a “second tier” of the platform’s News Tab, where it gets less exposure than its corporate establishment competitors. Read More HERE …
