DES MOINES, IA, March 27, 2013 (Press-News.org) Author Kiko McGregor has just published I'm Christian Too!, a book that explores the latest issues and messages being sold by today's top spiritual leaders.
The book explains why biblical Christians may want to question the teachings of popular celebrities, TV producers, and new-age spiritual leaders such as Eckhart Tolle, Marianne Williamson, Joel Osteen, Deepak Chopra, Oprah Winfrey and Pastor Rick Warren. McGregor also says, "Christians shouldn't willingly accept everything put in front of them that is labeled 'Christian'". McGregor takes a controversial look at some of these teachings, as she also examines the new TV series "The Bible," which is produced by Mark Burnett and Roma Downey. In McGregor's book, I'm Christian Too!, she also analyzes books like that written by Todd Burpo, a father who tells the story of his 3 year-old son, who went to Heaven and returned to tell his story, which is set to become a movie soon. McGregor's book includes chapters on Near Death Experiences and hell.
McGregor's main concern is Christians willingly accepting all teachings put in front of them, even the trend of merging different religions - Christianity, Islam, Buddhism and Hinduism.
McGregor posits that "many of today's spiritual leaders are motivated by power and money and that biblical Christians have an obligation to unite and redefine the 'Christian' in Christianity". Her book explores and may answer many questions that Christians have regarding God, Heaven, hell, and the teachings of new-age spiritual leaders.
Kiko McGregor's book is available at Amazon.com. More information can be found on her website at www.imchristiantoo.com.

Independent Movie Rental Kiosks vie Against Redbox in Connecticut
2013-03-27
Independent movie rental kiosks have taken root on the Connecticut shore. The Walmarts and Walgreens of the world have Redbox, but smaller stores like Jojo's Food Mart in Westbrook, Conn. don't meet the criteria for Redbox's automated movie rental kiosks. That's where Connecticut-based independent operators Jeff and Sarah Taylor come in.
The owners of Watchitnowdvd.com launched their movie rental kiosk at Jojo's convenience store and gas station this month, and right now it's the only game in this seaside town. The nearest Redbox is over five miles down the coast in ...
Revolutionary Dry Skin Lotion Targets Cause of Eczema, Then Helps Diabetic Patients!
2013-03-27
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development participated in a past study that showed a defective skin barrier may lead to skin conditions including eczema.
Scientists suspect that the breakdown is due to a combination of factors - a genetic predisposition to thin skin, which is then easily damaged by moisture loss and irritation caused by overheating, cold weather, dry winds and exposure to chemical irritants like soap or detergents. One thing is certain, while thin skin is more susceptible to developing eczema, exposure to irritants is often the key ...

You don't 'own' your own genes
2013-03-26
NEW YORK (March 25, 2013) -- Humans don't "own" their own genes, the cellular chemicals that define who they are and what diseases they might be at risk for. Through more than 40,000 patents on DNA molecules, companies have essentially claimed the entire human genome for profit, report two researchers who analyzed the patents on human DNA. Their study, published March 25 in the journal Genome Medicine, raises an alarm about the loss of individual "genomic liberty."
In their new analysis, the research team examined two types of patented DNA sequences: long and short fragments. ...
Women make better decisions than men
2013-03-26
Hamilton, ON, March 25, 2013 – Women's abilities to make fair decisions when competing interests are at stake make them better corporate leaders, researchers have found.
A survey of more than 600 board directors showed that women are more likely to consider the rights of others and to take a cooperative approach to decision-making. This approach translates into better performance for their companies.
The study, which was published this week in the International Journal of Business Governance and Ethics, was conducted by Chris Bart, professor of strategic management ...
Gene therapy may aid failing hearts
2013-03-26
In an animal study, researchers at the University of Washington show that it was possible to use gene therapy to boost heart muscle function.

Led by University of Washington (UW) Professor and Vice Chair of Bioengineering Michael Regnier and Dr. Chuck Murry, director of the Center for Cardiovascular Biology and co-director of the Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine at UW, the study appears online ...
Auto accidents often occur on low-speed roads, but a high-speed trip encourages reluctant bucklers
2013-03-26
Since most driving is done locally, it is not surprising that most auto accidents occur during routine errands.
Yet, occasional seatbelt users are more likely to buckle up for trips on high-speed roads and less likely to use the belts for local driving, according to an analysis of data from 100 instrumented vehicles reported in the January issue of Accident Analysis and Prevention.
If drivers and front-seat passengers used seatbelts all the time, deaths from crashes would be reduced by 45 percent, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). ...
