Paul Harvey, the iconic news commentator and radio pioneer, captivated millions of Americans with his unique delivery style, reaching over 24 million listeners at his peak. His words always carried weight, but no one could have predicted just how prophetic one of his speeches would become.
Today, when I reread his famous broadcast from 1965, I was struck by how eerily relevant it is to our present times.
The speech, titled “If I Were the Devil,” was first aired on April 3, 1965. In it, Harvey imagines what he would do if he were the Devil, detailing a cunning strategy to lead society astray. Sadly, many of the warnings he issued back then reflect the very struggles we face today.
EVERYONE should listen to this. Paul Harvey was alarmingly accurate 54 years ago.
In his fictional narrative, Harvey, as the Devil, outlines how he would whisper lies to people, corrupt young minds, and undermine moral foundations. He speaks of a world where values are flipped upside down, where faith is diminished, and materialism reigns. He envisions a society where chaos spreads through drugs, media, and weakening family bonds.
Listening to it again, it’s hard not to feel a chill as you realize how much of what he predicted has come to pass.
I grew up hearing Paul Harvey on the radio with my mom in the 1970s, and now, more than ever, his words seem to ring true. Everything he warned of 54 years ago seems to be happening now
What is not right in the picture?
Do you feel up to the challenge? Let’s put your observational skills to the test and see if you can identify the problem with the image! Testing our abilities and learning the details that we may have missed is always enjoyable. Are you prepared now? Now let’s investigate and see what’s off!
We’ve identified the oddity in the image after carefully examining it: the door hinges are on the other side. That is the primary aspect of the image that is incorrect.
Isn’t it amazing how a seemingly insignificant feature, like the location of door hinges, can drastically alter how someone perceives an image?
We can become increasingly aware of these minute variations in our environment by developing our observational skills. So, the next time you come across an image, look closely and see if you can identify anything that doesn’t look quite right! This enjoyable activity maintains our minds active and curious.
