The Medical Records Say Yes: A Neuroscientist Investigates Healing Prayer
A story about someone healed after prayer is easy to wave away. Medical records are not. In a long conversation on Mighty Pursuit (6 October 2026), host Matthew Thompson sits down with Dr Joshua Brown, professor of psychological and brain sciences at Indiana University and co-founder of the Global Medical Research Institute (GMRI). Brown’s academic work has been cited more than 12,000 times, and his team does something few believers or sceptics bother to do: they gather the before-and-after medical records, put them in front of specialists, and publish the cases in peer-reviewed journals.His conclusion, after years of this work: “I think God’s real and he intervenes.”Three Recoveries the Spe

"Nothing Works at Every Step": James Tour and Stephen Meyer on the Origin of Life
Every biology textbook tells the same story: long ago, simple chemicals in a primordial soup came together by chance and became the first living cell. Give it enough time, we are told, and life was inevitable.In “James Tour & Stephen Meyer React to the Origin of Life Debate (Ep. 1)”, two of the most formidable voices in the field sit down to test that story against the chemistry. Dr James Tour of Rice University is a synthetic organic chemist whom Meyer introduces as “one of the most distinguished scientists in the world”, with more than 600 peer-reviewed publications and over 150 patents. Dr Stephen Meyer of the Discovery Institute, author of Signature in the Cell, earned his PhD at Cam

Taxed Apart: How Rome, Not Christ, Pulled the Church Away from Its Roots
For almost two thousand years we have been told a tidy story. Jesus preached, the Jewish authorities rejected Him, He was crucified, and His followers walked away to found a brand-new religion. Clean break. Case closed.A new documentary from the history channel Markets of the Past, “The True Origin of Christianity’s Break With Judaism: What Historians Get Wrong” (3 October 2026), says that story is “almost entirely wrong.” Drawing on three decades of scholarship from Oxford, Princeton, Duke and the University of Groningen, from Roman tax records, imperial coinage, synagogue prayers, early church letters and papyrus fragments, the narrator shows that the separation had “almost nothing to do w

Beneath Durupınar: Deep Radar, Core Samples and the Ark of Noah
For more than sixty years, a vast, boat-shaped formation in the mountains of Ararat in eastern Türkiye has been waiting for its moment. Its moment has arrived. As of 26 September 2026, core samples drilled from the Durupınar formation have been sent off for animal DNA testing, and new deep radar scans show something man-made and non-geological beneath the surface, in the shape and precise dimensions of Noah’s Ark as given in the Bible.These findings were laid out on NewsNation’s Unreported (5 October 2026), where host Meagan Medick spoke live from the site with Andrew Jones, founder of Noah’s Ark Scans and vice president of the scientific project, who has spent around 30 years studying Durup

Own your AI, don't rent it: what sovereign AI means for Australian small businesses
"You don't own your AI, you rent it." It's a line doing the rounds in Australian tech circles, and it's accurate for most businesses. Your prompts, your client data and your workflows run on someone else's servers, on someone else's terms, often in another country.Renting is fine, until the price changes, the terms change, the model you built around gets retired, there's an outage, or a client asks where their data went. Owning at least part of your AI stack is how you take those risks off the table.Australia is asking the same questionIn August, Parliament set up a Joint Select Committee on Artificial Intelligence. Its remit covers issues including the workforce, data sovereignty and nation
Lock down your self-hosted AI in an afternoon: lessons from what's hitting other AI operators
I'm a big believer in running your own AI. It's the whole reason IRL exists. But owning the stack means owning the security too, and over the last few weeks a lot of other people and businesses running their own AI have found that out the hard way. None of this happened to IRL, but every one of these incidents is worth learning from before it happens to you.None of this needs a security team, just an afternoon on a box you already run.What others have run intoPoeLLM, a crypto-mining botnet aimed at AI servers. This week Lumen's Black Lotus Labs reported a botnet it calls PoeLLM that has compromised more than 3,400 servers since April, mostly in the US and Western Europe. Many of the victims
The Authentic Burial Cloths of Christ: A Comprehensive Forensic Analysis of the Shroud of Turin and the Sudarium of Oviedo
Introduction to the Forensic and Historical Relics of the PassionThe Shroud of Turin and the Sudarium of Oviedo represent the most intensively studied, debated, and technologically scrutinized archaeological artifacts in human history. For centuries, these ancient linens have captivated theologians, historians, and scientists, presenting physical and chemical enigmas that defy simple naturalistic explanations. From an apologetics perspective, the convergence of multiple independent scientific disciplines—ranging from textile analysis and botany to quantum physics and hematology—presents a compelling and robust empirical case that these cloths wrapped the historical Jesus of Nazareth followin

Crime Scene: Jerusalem. The Ultimate Cold Case
Truth is a heavy thing. For those of us who love a good mystery or spend our time debunking weird theories on the internet, evidence is everything. We don't want "just believe it" stories; we want the receipts. If you consider yourself a skeptic, that’s actually a great place to start. It means you value logic and you won't settle for a lie. It’s in that spirit of honest investigation that we should look at the New Testament. If we treat these ancient books not as a "religion manual," but as actual evidence from a cold-case file, something wild starts to happen. The old idea that you have to choose between "science" and "faith" starts to look like a glitch in the system.The world around us "
