Priest who Promotes LGBT Rights has Meeting with Pope
The Pope has met with Father James Martin in an hour long meeting, in his private library. This is where the Pope meets with heads of state and important dignitaries. Fr Martin has been a vocal supporter of LGBT rights, and has received public support from the Pope.
However, bishops are calling on the Pope to outline his position on this issue. And affirm the position of the church, which states the same-sex relationships are “gravely sinful and harmful to the well-being of those who partake in them,”
“Father Martin’s public messages create confusion among the faithful and disrupt the unity of the Church by promoting a false sense that immoral sexual behavior is acceptable under God’s law,” wrote Bishop Thomas John Paprocki of Springfield, Illinois, in a statement on the diocesan website.
Although the Pope has not issued a public statement, many see his meeting with Fr Martin as a message in itself. Especially as the Pope has failed to chastise the priest for his message of LGBT “affirmation”.

How Trustworthy is Science?
Any student of science knows that the first lesson is in scientific method. That this enables us to put our trust in science. Scientific method leads on the idea of reproducibility. This means that an idea or theory can only be accepted as true if it is proven through experimental means, and those results have to be reproducible, i.e. someone repeating your experiment will get the same result. However a study found that only 25% of papers were reproducible. Why is this the case? And what does it mean for science?
Cannabis Cafe Opens in Hollywood
America’s first cafe that allows customers to legally buy cannabis has opened in Hollywood. The Lowell Cafe offers the choice of joints or cannabis that can be vaped. This in the midst of a spike in lung damage cases and deaths linked to vaping.
David Elias co founder of the Los Angeles-based Lowell Herb Co, was a former stock market trader. The company began in 2017 with five employees, and now boosts Miley Cyrus as one of its investors.

Leading Pioneer in Gender Theory Admits Aspects of His Work “Made Up”
Christopher Dummitt a pioneer in gender theory has come out to say he was wrong about much of his work in gender theory and sex, saying that a lot of what he proposed as truth was “made up”.
He admits that as a young, newly graduated scientist he was “angry and assertive” about his ideas regarding gender theory, and was hiding the fact he had no proof to back up his opinions.
However, his work and others have now been taken to lay the foundation of gender theory. Dummitt says, “[it is] so disappointing to see that the viewpoints I used to argue for so fervently — and so baselessly — have now been accepted by so many in the wider society”.
Indeed, his “flawed reasoning, and other scholarship using the same defective thinking” is now being used by “activists and governments to legislate a new moral code of conduct”.
Dummitt is now arguing for more research into sex and gender from a different ideological background and for the peer review process to be more thorough.

Anti-surveillance Fashion on the Rise
Artists and fashion designers are coming up with ways to remain hidden in a world of surveillance cameras. Artists in London went walking the streets with bold make up across their faces in a bid to outsmart the cities facial recognition cameras. The Dazzle Club as they are called, used their form of camouflage to “reclaim ownership” of their image. Their walk was triggered by news that a private housing development was using sophisticated facial recognition technology to track people walking through its site without peoples permission.
Other companies have designed t-shirts with stylised faces or fake number plates in a bid to feed the surveillance systems with fake data. However, artists say their main purpose is to alert the public to the prevalence of surveillance in our daily lives.
One US artist, Leonardo Selvaggio, has even created 3D prosthetic copies of his own face. His reason, as well as disguising the wearers face; was to also feed to system false data- linking his face with multiple other bodies. Selvaggio’s company has since folded.
