Divine forgiveness (DF)—the belief that one has been forgiven by God—is a deeply meaningful part of many people’s lives and can positively impact their well-being, including the ability to self-forgive after wrongdoing.

Trump’s Fool’s Gold Science EO is a dangerous sham.
It gives his appointees the power to dismiss entire bodies of research and punish researchers who fail to fall in line with his agenda.

The EO has to be interpreted in light of the (decades long) Republican attack on science.
This has nothing to do with improving science. They're using legitImate criticism from within science to (ironically) decrease the credibility of science. They then have no obligation to listen to scientists.
