2 TIMOTHY 3:
Insemination rights for lesbians (DENMARK'S parliament on Friday passed a controversial law allowing lesbian couples and single women the right to free artificial insemination at public hospitals.)
CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION:
Christians to battle Feds on 'million-dollar' tracts (The controversy began Thursday about 1 p.m. when Secret Service agents visited the Great News Network in Texas and threatened with arrest Tim Crawford for hiding evidence in a counterfeiting investigation and seized 8,300 gospel tracts designed as "million-dollar bills.")
CHRISTIANITY:
New film to prove accuracy of Bible? ('Exodus' project documents evidence from Joseph, Red Sea, Mount Sinai)

Physicist: Cell-like structures could be microbes from space (Scientist speculates replicating particles without DNA hitched ride on comet or meteor, mixed with rain clouds) <- FEATURE!!!
MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGHS:
How Low Should Cholesterol Go? (They [researchers] believe the increase in statin dose required to reach these low cholesterol levels -- more than eight-times higher than doses used today -- would result in significantly more adverse side effects from the drugs and might even outweigh any benefits seen in lower heart disease risks.)
One-Two Punch for Lung Cancer (In their study, about 33 percent of patients responded to the combination treatment. Typically, only about 10 percent of lung cancer patients respond to Tarveca alone. The addition of Celebrex is believed to up the efficacy of Tarveca because it inhibits the COX-2 cell signaling pathway. That pathway has been linked to resistance to Tarveca, which blocks the growth of tumor cells by targeting a protein known as the epidermal growth factor receptor, or EGFR.)
Pain Relievers and Heart Risks (Well-publicized studies show people who take COX-2 inhibitors to relieve the pain of arthritis or other conditions are at increased risk for heart problems.)
Prostate Cancer May Begin in the Womb (Could prostate cancer have its origins in the womb? Maybe, report researchers who studied the effect of environmental estrogens on developing rats. Animals that were exposed to the hormones while still in the womb were more likely to develop prostate cancer in old age.)
Quit Smoking & Weight Loss Laser Treatments <- FEATURE!!!
And here is another HUGE help. It's what my brother-in-law, Steve, who is an ex-smoker, turned me on to. It's called Commit tablets. But a smoker who is trying to quit needs to limit oneself to no more than one tablet every 3 hours (for the 4 mg tablets). It really does help, and I have been a smoker for 35 years... HEAVY smoker a large part of it! Along with prayer, they are working miracles for me! Click HERE to read about them!!!
MIDDLE EAST MISCELLANEOUS:

"Everyone who comes will get a letter of authenticity saying you've celebrated June 6, 2006, in Hell.") <- FEATURE!!! OMG!!!

ONE WORLD RELIGION:
Charles should have interfaith coronation, ex-archbishop insists (The coronation of the Prince of Wales must be an "interfaith" event, the former Archbishop of Canterbury has controversially claimed. Lord Carey believes that the next coronation needs "very significant changes" so that it is "inclusive" of other religions that have spread across Britain.) <- FEATURE!!!
