4/26/13 Do You Believe In Miracles? Do you believe in miracles? I find it rather intriguing that some people still try to use science or any number of other disciplines as a way of explaining‚ give meaning or rationalizing the question of miracles or the existence of a higher power.

headlines these days cover a scam or corruption conducted by the very people who have been entrusted with a responsibility to make or protect the laws of the land. And sadly‚ the extent of such transgressions is increasing with each passing day.

Baran’s (2002) definition of Agenda setting‚ it is a theory that argues that the media may not tell us what to think‚ but the media tells us what to think about.
