] Academics do need to pay more attention to the role of ] religious belief in American public life, not only in the ] past, but also today. Without close attention to the ] prophetic scenario embraced by millions of American ] citizens, the current political climate in the United ] States cannot be fully understood. ] ] Leaders have always invoked God's blessing on their wars, ] and, in this respect, the Bush administration is simply ] carrying on a familiar tradition. But when our born-again ] president describes the nation's foreign-policy objective ] in theological terms as a global struggle against ] "evildoers," and when, in his recent State of the Union ] address, he casts Saddam Hussein as a demonic, ] quasi-supernatural figure who could unleash "a day of ] horror like none we have ever known," he is not only ] playing upon our still-raw memories of 9/11. He is also ] invoking a powerful and ancient apocalyptic vocabulary ] that for millions of prophecy believers conveys a ] specific and thrilling message of an approaching end - not ] just of Saddam, but of human history as we know it. Quick! Take a drug, get laied, go skydiving, drive your car real fast, write a novel, climb Mt.

Israeli scientists have devised a computer that can perform 330 trillion operations per second, more than 100,000 times the speed of the fastest PC. The secret: It runs on DNA. A year ago, researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, unveiled a programmable molecular computing machine composed of enzymes and DNA molecules instead of silicon microchips. Now the team has gone one step further. In the new device, the single DNA molecule that provides the computer with the input data also provides all the necessary fuel.
