Bible In The News

Welcome to the May 29, 2008 edition of Bible in the News, this is Glenn Abel reporting. The week began with the attention of the world being drawn to man’s activities and aspirations in space, as the latest “mission to Mars” landed successfully. The high-fives, fist-pumping, and backslapping were in stark contrast to the tension present during the final minutes of the “Phoenix” spacecraft’s descent. Commentators waxed eloquent on the greatness of this achievement, and all of the benefits mankind would gain from the mission – paving the way for future manned missions to the so-called “red planet”.
