THAT'S WHAT the global elites seem to be about. A member of the Greek parliament alleges that Prime Minister George Papandreou presided over the sale of credit default swaps on Greek sovereign debt to a government-owned bank. This is essentially like Pete Rose betting against the Reds while he was the manager. This type of behavior goes a long way toward explaining the global economic crisis: it's a rigged game to transfer wealth to the banking elite. Plus: Ireland's looming default and the character assassination of DSK; e coli and MRSA spreads; mandatory HPV vaccine for girls in Texas; social media and Rep. Weiner; the illegal war in Libya; and a new structure on Mars (?). See the video for "Sicka Cicadas" by Kathy Ashworth at YouTube by clicking here. Please visit the P.I.D.

WHAT WE believe determines how we live.  Do you know why you or your church does what it does? Keith Giles joins us to discuss his new book, This is My Body: Ekklesia as God Intended, which expores the difference between church as we know it and ekklesia the way God meant it to be. Then we're joined by Doug Harris, host of Simply the Truth on Revelation TV.  He talks about Reachout Trust, his ministry to those in cults, the occult, and the New Age.

THE PATRIOT Act was extended just before it expired Friday when President Obama signed the bill by autopen from France. This just strikes us as odd. While we have no doubt that it won't make a bit of difference -- any more than the president's clumsily forged birth certificate -- we have to wonder why an autopen was used instead of just emailing the document and printing a copy for the president to sign his own self. Also: Netanyahu's speech declared "an act of war"; Chinese prisoners forced to play World of Warcraft for prison guards; study shows Roman Catholics and born-again Christians with smaller brains than mainline Protestants; and Judge Andrew Napolitano asks when our peaceful republic became a police state (link opens video at YouTube).

TONIGHT, TWO of our favorite guests over the years: first, Patrick Heron, author of The Nephilim and the Pyramid of the Apocalypse, joins us to discuss the paperback release of his latest, The Return of the Antichrist and the New World Order. Then Dr. Jerome Corsi, author of Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry, discusses his new book, Where's the Birth Certificate?: The Case that Barack Obama is not Eligible to be President.

AS EXPECTED, Harold Camping's prediction of Judgment Day was proven false. Sadly, many people put their lives on the line, giving up their savings, homes, and families in the belief that the world as we knew it was ending. Skeptics have enjoyed the spectacle and are reveling in the opportunity to mock the Creator of the universe. Our prayer is that those deceived by Camping will turn back to the Bible, study the Word of God, and find out for themselves what the Lord has to say about His promised return. And make no mistake -- He is coming back. No man knows the day or the hour. Anyone who says different is probably selling something. Also: President Obama's Mideast peace policy; Israel's reaction; and Scotland Yard refuses to release Jack the Ripper files. Please visit the P.I.D.

SO SAYS Harold Camping of Family Radio Worldwide.  Judgment Day, he says, is May 21, 2011. We talk with Jackie Alnor of Apostasy Alert to discover why Mr. Camping wasn't embarrassed enough by missing his originally predicted date in 1994, and we'll learn about the event Jackie is planning outside Family Radio headquarters on Sunday, May 22. We also talk with James the Canadian Guy, host of Fuzzy Radio x on the Revelations Radio Network about his outreach to the people of Japan struggling to put their lives back in order after the devastating March 11 earthquake and tsunami.

THE SUPREME Court of Indiana ruled last week that "a right to resist an unlawful police entry into a home is against public policy and is incompatible with modern Fourth Amendment jurisprudence." In other words, if police break in your door without a warrant, either let them in or go to jail for resisting and try to prove yourself innocent later. This ruling overturns common law dating back nearly 800 years, to the English Magna Carta of 1215. It effectively strikes down the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. And with the development of new high-tech surveillance tools, we're coming very close to the total surveillance state described in 1984, Eagle Eye, and Enemy of the State. Elsewhere: head of IMF arrested on sex assault charge; Himmler's crystal skull found; leopard sharks dying off California of hemorrhagic disease; and Russian cult believes Vladimir Putin is reincarnation of St. Paul.

IN THE rush to celebrate the death of Osama bin Laden (assuming he really is dead this time), Americans have overlooked a disturbing consequence: as a nation, we are apparently OK with our president ordering assassinations in violation of multiple treaties signed by the United States, federal law, and the Constitution. Also: a possible military-intelligence coup inside the White House (read here and then here); Bilderbergers go to Switzerland; and Sibel Edmonds' Boiling Frogs Post. Please visit the P.I.D. Radio Facebook page, and check out the great Christian podcasters at the Revelations Radio Network.

IN THE wake of Osama bin Laden's official demise, especially since the only evidence is the ever-changing story from the White House (which ignores the eight previous declarations of Osama's death), we ask what seems to us the obvious questions: how do we know he's really dead, and what would the government gain by withholding the real story? Journalist and former CIA/DIA asset Susan Lindauer, author of Extreme Prejudice: The Terrifying Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover Ups of 9/11 and Iraq, discusses her new article, "A Time For Truth: Bin Laden's Death Won't End the War on Terror Until Americans Understand the Threat Was Always Us". Susan explains why taking out Osama won't bring our troops home from Afghanistan and Iraq; instead, she believes the government's propaganda machine is already preparing us for the next targets, Syria and Libya. In the second hour, Andrew Hoffman, author of The New World Order and the Eugenics Wars: A Christian Perspective, talks about how governments throughout history have used propaganda to rally citizens behind policies they would normally never support. Watch Andrew's presentation from The Politics of Relgion Conference, "Mass Propaganda: How Mass Media and Public Relations Creates a False Reality", at YouTube. Also: the Indiana Supreme Court rules that Hoosiers have no right to resist when police unlawfully enter their homes. Is this significant? Well, you might say that; it overturns common law dating back to the English Magna Carta of 1215.

BACK AFTER a long layoff due to our move!  This week's show will be a chance to catch up on things that happened while we were away.  Politics, religion, and your calls.

THE PROPHET Isaiah saw a bleak future:Behold, the LORD will empty the earth and make it desolate, and he will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants. [...]The earth is utterly broken, the earth is split apart,the earth is violently shaken.The earth staggers like a drunken man; it sways like a hut;its transgression lies heavy upon it, and it falls, and will not rise again. (Isaiah 24:1, 19-20, ESV)Are we seeing the signs of the end that Jesus told the apostles about? Steve Wohlberg of White Horse Media discusses the prophetic implications of the devastating earthquake in Japan on 3/11/11.For updates on our schedule during our relocation, visit the VFTB Facebook page, and check out the great Christian podcasters at the Revelations Radio Network.

IT'S DIFFICULT to grasp the magnitude of the tragedy in Japan. Some estimates place the ultimate death toll at above 10,000. Before-and-after images of the stricken areas defy description.While rescue teams continue to search for survivors, workers at damaged nuclear power plants frantically try to cool overheated reactors before they melt down, spewing radioactive material into the environment and adding to the death toll. The Washington Post published an informative explanation of how the nuclear emergency developed.Also: Ghadafi hangs on, and a dangerous new teaching about the Nephilim.Please note: due to our upcoming move to Illinois, we'll be scaling back our podcast schedule to once a week for at least the next two months.

A STRANGE cult that worships a Grim Reaper-like figure called Santa Muerte -- Saint Death -- is spreading northward from Mexico. It's not well understood by most religious observers, and it's beliefs and practices are morphing almost right before our eyes. It seems to have special appeal to the downtrodden, desperate -- and drug lords.Tony Kail has been researching religious cultures and spiritual folklore among magico-religious groups for over twenty years. He shares the research he collected for his new book, Santa Muerte: Mexico's Mysterious Saint of Death.

IN HONOR of St. Patrick's Day, we bring back an archived show as an RSS-feed only exclusive:Contrary to popular belief, St. Patrick's Day isn't an Irish celebration. It's not even an American celebration, really.Christopher Knowles, author of the fascinating blog The Secret Sun and the Eagle Award-winning Our Gods Wear Spandex: The Secret History of Comic Book Heroes, traces the history of St. Paddy's Day back through Rome to ancient Egypt, and points out a lot of odd, highly improbable "coincidences" along the way.Also: 3/17 everywhere you look, and the Babylonian symbolism at the Academy Awards.

THE MOST dangerous threat to Christianity in America today may be patriotism. Conservative Christians tend to be pretty patriotic, which makes us especially susceptible to the idea that we need to reclaim the country for Christ. At what point does being salt and light to the world morph into imposing a totalitarian government in Christ's name?C.J. Hampton, organizer of The Politics of Religion Conference April 1st and 2nd in Fort Wayne, talks about dominion theology, the gospel, and the need for Christian discernment.Please note: due to our upcoming move to Illinois, we'll be scaling back our podcast schedule to once a week for at least the next two months.
