Why did God create evil? The answer struck me to the core of my soul!

A professor at the university asked his students the following question:

Everything that exists was created by God?
One student bravely answered:
Yes, created by God.
Did God create everything? - a professor ied the student.
The professor asked :
If God created everything, then God created evil, since it exists. And according to the principle that our deeds define ourselves, then God is evil.
The student became silent after hearing such an answer. The professor was very pleased with himself. He boasted to students for proving once again that faith in God is a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said:
Can I ask you a question, professor?
"Of course," replied the professor.
A student got up and asked:

Professor, is cold a thing?

What kind of question? Of course it exists. Have you ever been cold?
Students laughed at the young man's question. The young man answered:
Actually, sir, cold doesn't exist.
According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is actually the absence of heat. A person or object can be studied on whether it has or transmits energy.
Absolute zero (-460 degrees
Fahrenheit) is a complete absence of heat. All matter becomes inert and unable to react at this temperature.
Cold does not exist. We created this word to describe what we feel in the absence of heat.
A student continued:
Professor, does darkness exist?
— Of course it exists.
You're wrong again, sir. Darkness also does not exist. Darkness is actually the absence of light. We can study the light but not the darkness.
We can use Newton's prism to spread white light across multiple colors and explore the different wavelengths of each color. You can't measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into the world of darkness and and illuminate it. How can you tell how dark a certain space is? You measure how much light is presented. Isn't it so? Darkness is a term man uses to describe what happens in the absence of light.
In the end, the young man asked the professor:
Sir. does evil exist?
This time it was uncertain, the professor answered:
Of course, as I said before. We see him every day. Cruelty, numerous crimes and violence throughout the world. These examples are nothing but a manifestation of evil.
To this, the student answered:
Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist for itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is like darkness and cold—a man-made word to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is not faith or love, which exist as light and warmth. Evil is the result of the absence of Divine love in the human heart. It's the kind of cold that comes when there is no heat, or the kind of darkness that comes when there's no light.

The student's name was Albert Einstein.

🚨 CRIME OF THE CENTURY UNCOVERED 🚨
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just dropped a BOMBSHELL that should shake America to its core.
When he walked into HHS, he found the ultimate betrayal:
Xavier Becerra and the Biden administration gutted the anti-fraud team that was supposed to protect er money every single year.
There were only 80 people watching over 50 states and 5 territories.
Becerra transferred 76 of them out.
Only 6 people left.
Six.
For 4 MILLION transactions a day.
It was an open invitation for the thieves.
And they came running.
Phony hospices in Los Angeles billing $6,000 a month for patients who didn’t even exist.
Durable medical equipment fraud — tens of billions stolen.
Autism services — tens of billions more looted.
The store was left wide open… and they cleaned it out.
RFK Jr. is calling it exactly what it is: a deliberate dismantling of the last line of defense against the greatest government fraud in modern American history.
This wasn’t incompetence.
This was the crime of the century.
And the American people just found out who left the vault door unlocked.

When the Muslim population in a country is less than 2%, they are a peace-loving minority that poses no threat to other ethnic groups. United States 1.1%, China 1.8% for example.

When the Muslim population is 2-5%, they begin to push for government authorization to enforce Islamic law in Muslim enclaves, recruiting new members from prisons and the streets, with disturbances occurring in Muslim enclaves. Such countries include: Australia 3.2%, Canada 4.9%, Italy 4.8%.

Denmark 5.4%, Germany 6.7%, United Kingdom 6%, Spain 5.3%, Thailand 5.4%
When the Muslim population reaches 5-10%, major disturbances erupt in Muslim enclaves; they advocate for the introduction of halal foods, ensuring that halal food practitioners are Muslims; they pressure chain supermarkets to label shelves with halal certifications, threatening those who refuse to comply. Such countries include: Denmark 5.4%, Germany 6.7%, United Kingdom 6%, Spain 5.3%, Thailand 5.4%, Philippines 5%, Sweden 7.1%, Switzerland 5.9%, Netherlands 5.5%.

When the Muslim population approaches 10-20%, nationwide riots occur; Muslims issue a series of demands, such as building large mosques in enclaves, granting super-national and super-legal privileges, forcing non-Muslims to follow Muslim customs, and criminalizing "expressions of dissatisfaction with Islam." Such countries include: France 10.8%, India 14.6%, Israel 18.4%, Russia 13%.

When the Muslim population is 20-60%, jihadist militants sporadically massacre non-believers, burning down Christian and Jewish places of worship; other ethnic groups either convert to Islam out of fear of being killed or are killed by Muslims; the country experiences massacres and ongoing terrorist attacks. Such countries include: Ethiopia 33%, Bosnia 50.7%, Chad 55%.

When the Muslim population reaches 60-80%, Islamic law replaces secular law, establishing a theocratic regime that persecutes all other non-believers in the name of the state, massacres Christians, and imposes taxes on non-believers using Islamic law as a weapon. Such countries include: Lebanon 67.8, Albania 60%, Malaysia 63%, Qatar 77.5% (Qatari citizen 100%).

When the Muslim population is 80%-98%, the country lives in daily intimidation, violence, and jihad, carrying out ethnic cleansing and massacres, with the state expelling non-believers. Such countries include: Sudan 96.6%, Bangladesh 90%, Egypt 93%, Indonesia 87%, Iraq 99.6%, Pakistan 97%, Palestine 98%, Syria 90%, Turkey 94%.

When the Muslim population is 98 to 100%, the Islamic people welcome the "House of Islamic Peace." In theory, this should be a time of peace, as everyone is Muslim, living in harmony without internal strife—but in reality, it is nothing like that; peace is not achieved, because in 100% purely Islamic countries, Muslim groups of different sects attack each other, vie to become the leaders of domestic Islamic law, and seek to eliminate other Muslim factions for all sorts of reasons. Such countries include: When the Muslim population is 80%-99%, the country lives in daily intimidation, violence, and jihad, carrying out ethnic cleansing and massacres, with the state expelling non-believers. Such countries include: , Afghanistan 100%, Somalia 99.6%, Yemen 100%. Maldives 99%, Mauritania 99.6%, Morocco 99%, Niger 98.2%, Iran 99.5%

🚨 I spend an enormous amount of time trying to understand the chaos we're living through. Not the headlines. The machine behind them. 🚨

If you want to understand what Elon Musk is really fighting, and who is really fighting him, this is the clearest map I can give you.
nsive schools. Expensive healthcare. Taxes that rise every year while everything gets worse. Borders nobody voted to open. Speech rules nobody voted for.

Most people look at this and blame capitalism. The market failed, they say, so the state has to step in and fix it.

They have it exactly backwards. What they want to fix it with is what broke it. This isn't chaos, and it isn't capitalism. It has a direction, a method, and a hundred-year history. Let me reverse-engineer it.

In 1926, Mussolini's regime threw Antonio Gramsci, co-founder of the Italian Communist Party, into prison. From his cell he asked the question that would shape the next century: why did the revolution win in Russia but fail in the West, where Marx said it was inevitable?

His answer: in Russia, the state was everything, so seizing it was enough. In the West, the state was only the outer wall. Behind it stood the real fortress: the church, the family, the school, the press, the culture. Western workers never revolted because the culture held them.

So the conclusion was simple. Don't storm the palace. Capture the culture. Win the institutions and you never have to win the argument, because you decide which arguments are allowed.

In 1967, the German student leader Rudi Dutschke gave it a slogan: the long march through the institutions. Paris supplied the intellectual software, and I've already apologized for my country's part in that.

Then came the most patient operation in modern history. The students of the 60s became the professors of the 80s. Their students became the journalists, judges, civil servants and HR directors of the 2000s. Their students now run the foundations, the NGOs and the agencies. No single step looked like a revolution. That's exactly why it worked.

The method was communist. The ambition became global. And it grew like a cancer. A cancer never attacks the body head-on. It hijacks the body's own cells and feeds on the body's own resources. This system never had to defeat the West. It just had to make the West pay for it.

In America, the machine found a political home: the Democratic Party. Not the millions of decent people who vote for it. The apparatus. The donor networks, the activist groups, the consultants, the captured agencies that keep moving in the same direction whoever wins.

In Europe, it found something even better. The EU's founders, Schuman, Adenauer, De Gasperi, were Catholic anti-communists who wanted to make war impossible. But they built exactly what the long march dreams of: power that never has to face a voter. A Commission nobody directly elects holds the right to propose laws for 450 million people. Chat Control. The digital euro. Speech rules written in Brussels. Nobody stormed anything. They just drafted it.

Add the World Economic Forum, the UN agencies and the global foundation circuit, and you have the full map. You don't need a secret meeting when everyone went to the same schools, reads the same papers, funds the same NGOs and flies to the same conference in Davos every January. It's not a conspiracy. It's a class with shared incentives. That's harder to fight, because there's no headquarters to raid.

And the billionaires? Most people who became the richest in the world got absorbed. They built something real, then traded it for an aura. Bill Gates is the perfect example: he built the software that ran the world, then became the bankroller of global health bureaucracies and the funder of newsrooms covering his own causes. Laurene Powell Jobs bought The Atlantic. Benioff bought Time. You're not buying a business. You're buying the right to be called good by the people who decide who is good. That's the corruption. Not suitcases of cash. Money for aura, grants for loyalty, NGOs for policy. All legal. All invisible.

Here's the proof it's one system and not a hundred separate problems. Look at what happened to prices over the last 25 years. Everything exposed to markets and technology got cheaper: TVs, software, phones, clothing. Everything controlled by institutions exploded: college, healthcare, childcare. And housing, where you need a committee's permission to build anything. Same country, same economy, same decades. The difference isn't the product. It's who controls it.

Taxes go up and services get worse, because the money doesn't reach the services. It feeds the layers. Immigration happens at a scale no electorate clearly chose, because for a system that lives on managing problems, more problems means more budget. And a two-income family today can't buy the house their parents bought on one salary. That's real poverty, manufactured by a machine that is rewarded for looking good, never for being good.

MAGA isn't the cause of the chaos. It's the immune response. Brexit, the farmers' revolts, the votes shaking every European capital: same thing. The body finally noticed the tumor.

So what we're living through is not a normal political cycle. It's a fight to the death between two models. One runs on the perception of goodness. The other runs on reality.

And it had to be the richest man in the world. Anyone smaller would have been bought, sued or cancelled. Every billionaire before him took the deal. Elon walked out of the club and turned the lights on.

He bought Twitter for $44 billion, opened the Twitter Files and gave the world back a public square where any narrative can be checked in real time. He went inside the government and helped shut down USAID. Now Politico announces that the Democrats' gavels are coming for him. His answer: he'll find out who is really pulling the strings and go after them, not just their puppets.

He has one line he keeps coming back to: he cares about the reality of goodness, not the perception of it. That sentence is the whole war.

Now the part that makes me certain of how it ends.

A lie is expensive to maintain. It needs gatekeepers, censors, fact-checkers, friendly journalists, a budget, and constant repairs every time reality contradicts it. The truth costs nothing to maintain. It just keeps being true.

AI is driving the cost of checking anything toward zero. Any budget, any study, any statistic, any promise, audited in seconds by anyone with a phone. Yes, AI can generate lies at scale too. But producing a lie is cheap. Defending it against a billion instant audits is impossible.

That's what acceleration really means. It doesn't pick sides. It speeds up feedback loops. Systems aligned with reality compound. Systems built on lies hit the wall faster. And you cannot build rockets, design chips or cure diseases with a false model of the world. Physics doesn't read op-eds. The more intelligence we pour into the world, the more expensive every lie becomes.

You cannot scale a lie. You can only scale what's true.

We are close to the collapse of the old order and the birth of a new one. Not the one from the WEF's own 2016 video, "you'll own nothing and you'll be happy." The opposite. An order built on truth-seeking, efficiency, science, private property and free markets. You will own things. You will build things. And you'll be happy, because it will be real.

Gramsci's long march took a century. Its collapse will take years.

History will remember this moment. A man walked into the most powerful machine ever built, refused the deal everyone else took, and chose reality over perception.

I have never been more optimistic.

Pou chèf gang yo ak manm gang yo k ap kenbe kat konpatriyòt nou yo an otaj ann Ayiti:

Mesye nou kidnape yo pa konbatan. Yo se teknisyen nan domèn avyasyon ki fè pati misyon nou ann Ayiti, nan kad yon misyon entènasyonal. Misyon nou an gen sèlman pilòt ak pèsonèl teknik, ki gen evakyasyon medikal epi sove lavi moun, pa fè lagè.

Men, nou te kidnape yo yon fason lach pandan yo t ap retounen apre yo te fin achte manje nan yon makèt nan zòn nan.

Se poutèt sa, jodi a nou te lanse yon operasyon militè pou pote yo sekou. Nou gen yon sèl objektif: fè kat konpatriyòt nou yo retounen lakay yo vivan, san okenn mal.

Men, mwen vle pou nou menm, chèf gang yo, konprann yon bagay byen klè: atak jodi a pa anyen devan sa k ap vini si nou pa remèt toule kat otaj yo vivan.

Epi pa pran pawòl nou yo pou menas san fondman. Nou deja fini ak gang yo nan El Salvador, e nou kapab fini ak nou tou.

Nou toujou gen tan pou evite sa.

Remèt nou kat konpatriyòt nou yo vivan, san okenn mal, epi tout bagay ap retounen jan sa te ye anvan kidnaping lan.

Desizyon an nan men nou.

Barack Obama Targeted Patriots, Spied on Reporters, and Betrayed the Republic

Exposing the Grotesque Hypocrisy of the Man Who Built the Modern Police State

Here is what the worst President America has ever known ,Obama, Desperately Wants You to Forget

Few spectacles in modern esque audacity of Barack Obama stepping forward to lecture the American people on democratic norms and the weaponization of state power. This is the man who refined the modern administrative bludgeon, codified bureaucratic retaliation, and turned executive arrogance into daily governance. Listening to him pontificate about institutional purity turns the stomach of anyone who actually lived through his eight years of methodical partisan retribution.

The historical record cannot be scrubbed by media hagiography. His Internal Revenue Service deliberately targeted conservative and Tea Party groups, burying their applications under endless inquisitions until the federal government was forced into a formal written apology and a multi-million-dollar legal settlement. That was state-sponsored sabotage of political speech.

His Department of Justice executed a clandestine surveillance dragnet against more than one hundred Associated Press reporters, confiscating their phone logs to suppress reporting. His federal prosecutors went so far as to label Fox News journalist James Rosen a criminal co-conspirator simply for engaging in standard investigative journalism. He unleashed the Espionage Act against government leakers eight times, surpassing the combined total of every single presidential administration that preceded him. When speaking to his own supporters in 2010, he abandoned all rhetorical pretense and commanded them to punish their political enemies.

Yet today, this same architect of bureaucratic retaliation clutches his pearls whenever the lawful apparatus of the state dares to review the immigration documents or campaign finances of his ideological allies. The rules he weaponized against everyday Americans were meant for everyone except his protected class of politicians.

The wreckage of his domestic legacy is just as galling. He forced the Affordable Care Act through a divided Congress on pure partisan power, anchored to the brazen lie that citizens could keep their doctors and their plans. Millions of working families saw their choices vaporize, their deductibles spike, and their premiums explode, all while being subjected to a coercive individual mandate that penalized private citizens for simply refusing to purchase a state-mandated commodity.

He pumped nearly a trillion dollars of stimulus funds into wasteful bureaucratic boondoggles, watched crony vanity projects like Solyndra collapse into bankruptcy, and oversaw a historically sluggish economic recovery. Under his stewardship, the national debt nearly doubled from ten trillion dollars to almost twenty trillion dollars, while his regulatory agencies strangled domestic energy production and waged open warfare on coal country. He openly mocked working-class Americans behind closed doors in San Francisco, dismissing them as bitter people who cling to guns and religion, and then stood at a podium to tell self-made entrepreneurs that they did not build their own businesses.

His foreign policy was a catalog of pure catastrophe and projected weakness. He drew a red line in Syria and retreated the moment it was crossed. He destabilized North Africa by turning Libya into an ungoverned war zone, presided over the slaughter of American personnel in Benghazi, and fabricated a childish excuse about an obscure internet video to evade election-year accountability. He ordered a premature withdrawal from Iraq that paved the way for the rise of ISIS, shipped untraceable cash to the regime in Tehran under a fatally flawed nuclear deal, and handed Russia a reset button that emboldened foreign aggression across Eastern Europe.

Barack Obama spent eight years expanding the surveillance state, empowering unelected agencies, and dismissing his fellow citizens with supreme condescension. Watching him pose as an impartial defender of constitutional democracy is the ultimate exercise in political gaslighting. His record is one of division, decline, and partisan warfare, and no amount of pious lecturing will ever rewrite the history of what he inflicted upon this country.

Politicians and government insiders have gotten too complacent? Rob, you’re the top Democrat in Iowa politics. If you believe what you’re saying, why are you still running under a party label at all?
You hold real positions here. Life. Gender identity in sports. Taxes. The size of government. Those aren’t neutral, they line up with your party’s platform. You raise money from Democratic donors, campaign at Democratic events, and carry that agenda into every stop you make. That’s not “one-party status quo” talk, that’s you standing with your party. I don’t fault you for that, I do the same. I fault you for dressing it up as something else.
That’s what I love about Zach Lahn. He’s got ideas and beliefs that actually align with Iowans, and he says them out loud instead of hiding behind vague talk of a broken system. He challenges me. He’s trying to make a difference, not just win a title.
Rob, get in the race of ideas. Debate him on where you’d actually take this state. I respect people who hold different views than mine. I don’t respect someone pretending to be above the fight while standing in the middle of it. Stop running for your next career move and start running like a leader.
