As we face a grim struggle today against a profoundly dishonest and media-abetted attempt to turn America into an evil outpost of godless collectivism, we need to remind ourselves of what God wrought -- and still accomplishes through those who fear and love Him.

Who would want to spend their life toiling away in the name of scientific research to benefit mankind when the alternative is to strike it rich by pressing a few buttons on a Bloomberg terminal? In the past 40 years, there has been a strong negative correlation between market performance and Space development, with many top rocket scientists being lured into investment banking during the roaring go-go era. These geniuses would develop highly sophisticated vehicles such as Jupiter V, not to go into space, but to hold Collateralized Debt Obligations. The Dow has gone up more than 1300% but astronauts are still driving the same Volvo 240 into Space. http://www.mastersuniverse.net Who would have thought that after 40 years, man still has not ventured beyond the Moon?
