"Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy: Jubilee for Socially Excluded People"
Pope Francis (November 13, 2016)
(From
http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/homilies/2016/documents/papa-francesco_20161113_giubileo-omelia-senza-fissa-dimora.pdf
(November 25, 2016))
"...Jesus does not want to frighten us, but to tell us that everything we now
see will inevitably pass away. Even the strongest kingdoms, the most sacred
buildings and the surest realities of this world do not last for ever; sooner or
later they fall....
"...This is important: to distinguish the word of wisdom that the God speaks to
us each day from the shouting of those who seek in God’s name to frighten, to
nourish division and fear...."

Francis (November 13, 2016))

photograph of Serbian-American inventor Nikola Tesla in his laboratory in
Colorado Springs around 1899, supposedly sitting reading next to his giant
"magnifying transmitter" high voltage generator while the machine produced huge
bolts of electricity. The photo was a promotional stunt by photographer
Dickenson V. Alley; a double exposure. First the machine's huge sparks were
photographed in the darkened room, then the photographic plate was exposed again
with the machine off and Tesla sitting in the chair. In his Colorado Springs
Notes Tesla admitted that the photo is false:
"Of course, the discharge was not playing when the experimenter was
photographed, as might be imagined!" )
