June 5, 2019
“This is unlike any film project we’ve done before,” said Discovery Institute vice president John. G. West. “Science Uprising directly confronts the false views of science held by the growing number of science popularizers like Neil deGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye.” The episodes are 6-8 minutes long each and address issues such as the existence of an immaterial mind, the origin of life from non-life, the fine-tuning of nature that allows life to flourish, the destructive power of mutations, claims about human evolution, and whether science has disproved free will. Episodes feature original interviews not only with top Discovery Institute Fellows such as Stephen Meyer and Michael Behe, but also with leading scientists such as renowned research chemist James Tour at Rice …

President Trump's first year saw the 50th anniversary of the 1967 Six-Day War--and also of the U.S.-Israel alliance. His second saw the 70th anniversary of Israel's 1948 birth as a Jewish state, and the 25th anniversary of the 1993 Oslo Accords.
