Hitler has an army, but we have superpowers, and you don’t need three guesses to know how that goes. Dead Nazis are the appetizer, main course, and dessert, but Sumerian Six has a refined palate. This isometric stealth strategy game is a Reich-bashing gourmand. The humor of Freedom Force, the brutality of XCOM, and the meticulous murder-planning of Hitman are here. In the end, however, Sumerian Six is its own game, a clockwork meat grinder that oozes style the way Kammler’s forces ooze blood.

This article contains AI-generated imagery. The Bible is a complex collection of texts, written over centuries by different authors in various historical and cultural contexts. Within its pages, the prophetic books stand out for their profound impact on both Jewish and Christian thought. Prophecies in the Old Testament (OT) have often been interpreted literally, especially those that appear to have been fulfilled by actual historical events. However, when it comes to the New Testament (NT), interpretations often shift towards symbolism. This raises an important question: If many prophecies in the OT were fulfilled literally, should NT prophecies also be taken literally?

Joseph Smith was the founder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon Church). One of the more controversial aspects of the LDS Church was polygamy. Various church members practiced polygamy from the 1840s to 1890, when the practice was ended by the fourth president of the church.

Some even criticize the women he married or degenerate Joe Smith’s wife’s names by calling them ignorant, manipulated, or subservient. However, many of his plural wives have fascinating stories and backgrounds. Here, we explore the lives of a few of these women:
