Political scientists are in a panic because the US House of Representatives finally passed a bill which contains a line item eliminating National Science Foundation grants for political scientists. The Senate may vote soon also, though there are a lot more Democrats in the Senate so it is unlikely it will pass. We know how much they hate science.
Americans are being beat by Asians again. Asians do better on international standardized tests, their economies are better; heck, they are even robbing us of that last stronghold of American dominance - obesity.

I make fun of numerology but I kind of like it. I can like it and still make fun of it because I don't take it too seriously.
Want to claim there is a mathematical secret, far beyond human intelligence, buried in religious texts? Sure, I will listen, if it's on TV and well produced. It's fun to speculate that prayers and rituals have a pattern that contains some sacred rhythm and people 3,000 years ago were super smart about it and we are not. It can get a little funky if you take it too seriously, though. Words no longer have meaning if they are instead numerical combinations. Change a word, or add one, and you would apparently allow sleeping with your neighbor's wife or whatever in the Ten Commandments.
Sometimes medicine just makes you want to cheer.
