In the shortest possible definition I can see it is another name for evolution. Apparently the people who promote it say it is an argument for god creating everything 6 thousand years ago, But in essence it says that everything that lives fits perfectly into its natural place.

Iran
Last night Iranian Mullahs launched 300 drones and missiles at Israel direct, and did so, so everyone had over two hours to prepare for their arrival.

The Age of Immediacy
I have been chosen this year to take part in a statistical programme related to the governance of the UK. Every three months I am asked a series of questions about myself (my demographic) and my thoughts on the country and her institutions. Invite reminders come in the post but the rest is done online….

Tea
