God bless you too Swordy and all here today.

Satan, as demons retain the superior angelic intellect, since the fall are void of the grace that illuminates the Angels of God. Eve was innocent of sin, but easily manipulated, (like a child). Adam was the one who made the covenant with God, not Eve, whom, by natural law, had authority over Eve. By Adam eating the apple, Adam knowingly broke his covenant with God. He should have known better, as he knew the rules, yet let Eve talk him into eating the apple. The fall of man is ultimately his responsibility for he had both the knowledge and the free will to choose.
The Global Rejection of CBDCs
The Biden administration and the Federal Reserve are taking steps toward the potential roll-out of a central bank digital currency (CBDC). In attempting to do so, they are ignoring serious concerns about consumer privacy and heavy-handed government control in the U.S. and abroad.
Everywhere around the world, powerful heads of central banks and politicians are pushing central bank digital currency. Yet also around the globe – from the U.S. to Europe to Africa – more and more of the general populace are rejecting CBDCs as they learn what they would entail and experience them in practice.
A CBDC is a digital form of a national currency issued or coordinated by a nation’s central bank. Unlike paper or a private decentralized digital currency, a CBDC leaves an electronic trail of purchases and sales within a government digital ledger. Ledgers of such information are in the hands of governments that in many cases have a dark history of abuses of civil liberties.
Proponents say CBDC would lead to faster payments that would particularly benefit lower-income individuals. Yet critics argue the mechanism for CBDCs is ripe for abuse, allowing the government to violate financial privacy and reward and punish certain behaviors by controlling access to digital money.
Measures of public reaction in the U.S. and elsewhere show that the general public – as well as a growing number their representatives in their governments – are firmly on the side of critics of CBDCs. Americans are generally skeptical of grand new government initiatives. According to a recent Pew Research poll on faith in the American government, only 20 percent of the public currently trust the government.
Beyond general mistrust of government, Americans seem to specifically distrust the government wielding its powers with a CBDC. Most people don’t see a need for it, with just 16 percent supporting a Federal Reserve-controlled digital currency, according to a recent CATO Institute poll.
Europe is facing skepticism, as well. A growing number of members of the EU Parliament are saying they do not see any added benefit to a CBDC., Jack Schickler of CoinDesk reported in April. Markus Ferber, the economic spokesperson for the center-right European People's Party, put it this way: “There’s one central question which hasn’t yet been credibly answered, which is what is the added value … what can I do with a digital euro that I can’t do with current payment options?”
Spanning the globe to Africa, an especially instructive lesson in the public’s reaction to the issuance of CBDC comes from that continent’s most populous country: Nigeria.

Scientist Unveils Plan to CATCH an Asteroid to ‘Block Out the Sun’ to Fight Climate Change
Scientists are reportedly looking to catch an asteroid and tether it to block out the sun in order to fight climate change.
If given the go-ahead, the bizarre plan would see a massive umbrella placed on the trapped rock to shield Earth from the sun.
An astronomer from the University of Hawaiʻi, István Szapudi, said the concept was merely an enormous ‘solar shield.’
The shield, made from graphene, would be placed on the asteroid and block out energy from the sun and cool down the Earth, the scientist claims.
The idea was outlined in a paper published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The scientist claims the space shield would cool down Earth but not plunge us into the next ice age.
“In Hawaiʻi, many use an umbrella to block the sunlight as they walk about during the day,” Szapudi said.
“I was thinking, could we do the same for Earth and thereby mitigate the impending catastrophe of climate change?”

Ron DeSantis Questioned About President Trump in 2020 Election Says, “Of course he lost. Joe Biden’s the president”…
There’s been no bigger critic of the DeSantis operation than me; however, to be fair in this gotcha question – DeSantis did outline some of the numerous voting irregularities before getting to the nub of his position and saying, “Of course he lost. Joe Biden’s the president.”
Where DeSantis goes horribly wrong in his political approach is to then blame Donald Trump for the outcomes of the state decisions during the 2020 COVID election. The states run the elections, not the federal government. Ballot harvesting corruption and the fraud in the voting process was a specific regional issue albeit on a massive scale.
DeSantis has this sanctimonious streak that runs through him from top to bottom. President Trump named him accurately. The Florida governor has very few friends, and those who know him in his professional political endeavors do not find him to be a man of integrity.
Governor DeSantis is a shape shifting DeceptiCon, comfortable with false pretenses all around him. That’s why DeSantis was the perfect selection for the Astroturf, fraud and fakery that underpins the entire anti-MAGA campaign operation. It’s all fake, including the candidate.

DeSantis is a wayward son.
We just have to develop our own black economy.

Some women deserve respect, some do not.
Eve sinned too, no doubt and she was not innocent, however she personally did not hold the covenant with God. She ignored her husband, but her husband disobeyed God.
Yes, absolutely!
