Belmont man knows Shroud of Turin inside and out by Alan Hodge Kevin Moran, 85, of Belmont says he thinks he’s unraveled the mystery surrounding the Shroud of Turin. As many of you know, and the rest are about to find out, the Shroud is said by some to be the cloth that the body of Jesus was wrapped in after he was crucified in 30AD. The Shroud first showed up in 525A.D. in Edessa, then was moved to Constantinople where it was stored from 944-1204A.D. Next, the Shroud turned up in Lirey, France where it stayed from 13531357, was in a fire in 1532 in Chambery, France, and in 1587 landed in Turin, Italy where it is still housed in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. Physically, the Shroud is 3.5 ft. wide and 14.5 ft. long. It’s made of a coarsely woven cloth. It bears the resemblance of a recumbent man and that’s where the debate begins. Many scholars and historians say the man-image is Jesus, but just exactly how the “stains” on the Shroud that look like a human body got there and how they were formed has fueled conversation and controversy for centuries. Enter Moran. “I’ve studied the Shroud for over forty years,” he said. “I think it’s the seal of the resurrection of Jesus.” Moran, who attends Mass at Belmont Abbey, has an extensive background in technical matters. He is an engineer and has expertise in electrical, mechanical, and optical fields. He is an inventor, historian, and an absorber of knowledge on a grand and eclectic scale. See SHROUD page 4

Mount Holly K9 Officers receive trauma and opioid reversal kits By Mary Smith
The Mt. Holly police K9 unit has received trauma and opioid reversal kits. Department K9s Hondo and Buzz enjoy their work as multi-purpose Patrol K9 officers. Hondo is an eight year old Tervuren Shepherd who is assigned to his handler, Corporal Austin Cox. On his days off, he enjoys walks, swimming, rolling in the grass, and napping. Buzz is a four year old Belgian Malinois who is assigned to his handler, Corporal Jonathan Moore. He is the department’s newest dog and has been assigned to the patrol unit for over a year. When he’s not working, Buzz likes to dig holes in the backyard, play with his handler’s Belmont's Kevin Moran has studied the Shroud of Turin for over children, and play with his Tug. four decades.

tracking suspects involved in criminal activity. Their work can be pretty rough at times, and one never knows what type of dangerous situation could arise if they were ever to find themselves barking up the wrong tree. Last month, Buzz and Hondo were both awarded trauma kits and Naloxone/Narcan overdose reversal kits by the non-profit organization, K9s of Valor. Now these four-legged officers can get the help that they need in any type of situation. Although neither dog has ever had any major injuries on the job, one can never be too careful. “The most common drugs that these dogs come in contact with are heroin and marijuana,” said Major Brian Reagan, currently the Deputy Chief of the Mount Holly Police Department, but a former
K9 handler himself for about 9 years. “We are so grateful to receive these kits for our K9 officers, Hondo and Buzz. You never know what type of medical emergency or opioid they might be exposed to on a call,” Major Reagan continued. “With these kits we don’t have to worry about not gettingto the veterinarian in time during an emergency situation because we can provide immediate medical care on the scene.” K9s of Valor, located in Texas, is an all volunteer 501c(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide life-saving and essential equipment such as K9 trauma kits, Narcan overdose reversal kits and Hot-N-Pop vehicle heat alarms to help keep police dogs throughout the country safe.

OPINION
TODAY’S QUOTE: In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved. ~Franklin D. Roosevelt
MY OPINION: Man and dirt Most folks take dirt for granted, but I have been thinking a lot lately about how much dirt means to humanity. Way back a long time ago, people were intimately acquainted with dirt. They walked on dirt, they sat down on dirt, at night they stretched out on dirt, and since soap was not going to be invented for tens of thousands of years they were dirty from head to toe. Time began to move along and someone, somewhere, figured out if you plant seeds in dirt you could make yourself a regular supply of vittles. Thus, mankind commenced to scratching grooves in dirt and called it farming. Time moved along some more and a guy somewhere or another noticed that some dirt had a greenish tint and if that dirt got really hot the greenish part turned to what we call copper. Somewhere or another around 6,000 years ago some guys figured out how to make tools out of the copper-dirt. Not long after that they figured out how to make spear tips and the arms race was on like donkey kong and it ain’t stopped since. Time moved along some more and some guy noticed that certain dirt had a reddish tinge and when it got really hot a metal we call iron was formed and that of course led to the invention of machines and guns and all sorts of stuff. Next, a guy learned that by blowing air on hot iron you could make steel and a lot more machines and such. Nowadays we might think just because we are less dirty (grime-wise) than cave folks, or that we don’t use copper tools that our “stuff” is far removed from dirt but that is not the case. Let us consider the airplane for instance. Most modern aircraft are made from aluminum which comes from a type of dirt called bauxite. I know this because many years ago
Thursday, July 12, 2018
when I was a UPS drone I often had to go to Badin, NC and take packages to the Alcoa aluminum foundry that operated there. It was a Alan Hodge fascinating operation Banner-News Editor as rail cars full of yellow dirt were unloaded and the dirt put in a huge furnace and by and by shiny aluminum would come pouring out. OK hold that thought. So from yellow dirt we have aluminum sheets and from aluminum sheets we have airplanes and so the next time you are flying just remember that plane was once a rail car of dirt. The same principal applies to cars and trucks. I hate to say it, but your $40,000 ride is just a box made out of repurposed dirt. There’s another human/dirt connectiondirt as medicine. Lots of medicines have mineral-dirt in them. They cost a lot of money too. But at one time po’ folks ate dirt for their health. I am not sure if anyone still does it, but I know for a fact that the days of yore in the rural areas of our state folks would eat handfuls of red clay as a vitamin and mineral supplement. Down in South Carolina some folks were called sandlappers because they would get down on their hands and knees and lick the sandy dirt. Try that next time you are at the beach and see what sort of flavor sensation you get. Oh, sandlappers is still a term used for South Carolina residents just like we are called Tar Heels- but no one I ever heard of licked tar off someone else’s foot. Well, that is my treatise on the relationship between Man and dirt. Just in case you wonder how I got the idea, I ate a big ol’ chocolate cupcake before I went to bed and the idea popped into my head at 2am.
Chickens may not have lips, but they do have legs For Memorial Day, my three children, their spouses along with our “grand dogs” (we have 3 of them) went camping. Remember that rainy weekend. We survived. Actually, we had fun. Ok – we had a blast. We played table games. More specifically, we played dominoes. A few weeks before, my wife and I along with our son and his wife played it at our house. My son is a rules person when it comes to table games. He read the rules. I objected. After all we had been playing Dominoes for years. The real rules and our rules were different. I preferred our rules; it was more fun. Fast forward to the camping trip and my son insisted on reading the rules. We learned that when you have a double, you must make it into a “chicken foot” that is, you must put Dominoes on all three points. It looks like a chicken foot. If you can’t satisfy it, you pick up from the Domino “boneyard.” We also found out there were other rules we weren’t following. I reminded my kids that in the game of Monopoly, if you land on “Go”, you receive $500. Anthony pointed out there was nothing in the rules that said that. I acknowledged
he was correct. However, where I grew up and the way we played the game, you got $500 for landing on “Go.” More belly laughs and more protests. I found myself having to play Dominoes by the rules. Sometimes it was fun. But there were moments when I just wanted to play by our rules. I knew them best. Even if they were wrong, I knew them. I remember being in fifth grade and playing kick ball. Someone told me you never kick the first pitch that comes to you. I believed them and ignored a perfect pitch. All the jocks yelled at me. I couldn’t understand why they were mad. I was following the rules. Do you remember the test you took in school? It said to write your name on the top of the paper and then told you to read the instructions first before starting the test. We all got ahead of ourselves. Instruction number eight said to stand up and shout, “I am the best at following instructions.” It gave you a sense of superiority. When you read the last instruction, it said to go back to the top, answer number one and put down your pencil. You didn’t follow the instructions. When my daughter turned

Correction In the July 5, 2018 BannerNews on the front page the Holy Angels story incorrectly spelled the name of the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity as Phi Kappa Phi in the photo cutline.
Lt. Dan Kaffee: “I want the truth.” Col. Nathan Jessup: “You can’t handle the truth!” The movie, A Few Good Men, came out in 1992 and the famous line above has reverberated since Dennis Siracusa then for much more than a military court martial. Bear with me while I digress for a minute and get into nature. Have you ever watched a honey bee? I mean really followed them to see where they get their pollen? In my yard they wait until the sun comes out and then start with the clover in our two acres. Then some move to the butterfly bushes, occasionally our gardenias, tulip poplars dripping with nectar, miscellaneous flower pots, and flowers and vegetables in our gardens. Wow, they’re all over the place! Now I have probably never been to your yard but I would guess that your bees largely replicate what I experience here. So when their legs are filled up with pollen they traipse off to their hives and collectively start processing their bounty. Now think about this a minute. If you were to drain off some of their honey and sell it, how would you describe it for an end consumer; could you call it “clover honey, wild flower honey, tomato plant honey,” or what? So armed with your observations and this sticky question, how do we make sense of honey
labels in the stores? First, as background, global honey production is over one million tons. A huge part of it comes from China, Europe, Argentina, Canada and many other countries. Years ago, when I worked in food advertising, I had a honey client. They brought in honey from all over the world and used gas chromatography to analyze those honeys so they could be “blended” to produce a consistent flavor/color profile and be shelf stable AND some of the honey that came in didn’t look like honey. Some was nearly clear, one was black as night, and one even smelled like limburger cheese. So this gives you some idea what great efforts are expended to come up with a consistent store product. It also begs the question about why our regulatory agencies allow these products to be labeled “clover honey?” Then you add in the ultra-pasteurization and filtering that companies use and which our regulatory agencies allow, and we find “honey” on store shelves that has all its pollen removed so no one can discover where it came from AND worse, we may simply be buying sugar water that may not be honey at all. Back to the movie; are we so busy, shallow, and easily lead that “we can’t handle the truth?” Have we become so tolerant of everything that we simply don’t care about much anymore? In the bible, “tolerance” originally had to do with acknowledging that people could have different religious beliefs and had a right to do so. Today, “tolerance” has wrongly been stretched like a rubber band to allow for dismissing any sin; for turning our backs on the vital difference
between “right and wrong.” For accepting and even being forced to embrace situation ethics where basically everything is ok. When we notice things that are wrong, shouldn’t we
1 4 , t h e Tony Marciano youth leader gave her a handout of the 200 things she could not do as a Christ follower. Today she laughs at that list. If she followed the rules, she would be a “good Christian” (whatever that means). We like rules. After all, they give us a safe place to hide out. If you obey the rules, you can look down your nose at the person who doesn’t. You are a better rule follower. I think that God likes to keep things simple. If he were writing the rules for dominoes, it would be; #1) Enjoy your time with the people you love; #2) have fun. That’s it. Two rules. No more. No less. He gave us only two rules. They are – “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these.” I like the way one pastor says it. “Love God and love others. If you do that, you have a lifetime of things to do.”

What the Pledge Means By Lee H. Hamilton You know the Pledge of Allegiance, probably by heart. You may recite it only occasionally, or get the chance several times a week. Sometimes, I’m guessing, you say it mechanically, and other times filled with deep meaning. I hope it’s more often the latter, because here’s what’s remarkable about the Pledge: in a few short phrases, it lays out the fundamentals of what our country represents and strives to achieve. Let’s start with these words: “and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible.” It’s not just talking about any nation or form of government; it’s talking about a republic — a unified nation, under divine Providence, with three fully equal branches that are strong and independent. The meaning goes even deeper than that. Really, we’re talking about power being dispersed across a large number of people and institutions. Our founders created a republic that to its core rejects autocratic political leadership and authoritarianism. This, in turn, provides a system that has the capacity to reform and renew itself, because its institutions rest on the political involvement of our citizens. Government is bound by the electoral process, an independent judiciary, and constitutional guarantees of freedom of speech, assembly, religion and the press. This brings us to the final words: “with liberty and justice for all.” They represent a system built on individual dignity and respect for each person. We recognize and tolerate our differences. We may not always measure up to our ideals, but we certainly know what they are. We don’t try to demonize those who are different. At heart, then, this is a system based on the belief that we’re all in this enterprise together, and all connected to one another. Everyone has the right to enjoy the promise of America. Put these two parts of the Pledge together, and what it’s telling us is that we live in a system that binds us together by adherence to rules of political engagement, respect for the rule of law, and belief in our democratic institutions. What the country expects in return is that most individuals will live a life of honor, excellence and responsibility. The system demands hard work on the part of its citizens if it is to succeed. So the next time you stand as the Pledge is recited, think about what you’re saying. It’s deceptively simple. But it packs a powerful message. Lee Hamilton is a Senior Advisor for the Indiana University Center on Representative Government; a Distinguished Scholar, IU School of Global and International Studies; and a Professor of Practice, IU School of Public and Environmental Affairs. He was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives for 34 years.

And they’re off! Summer has arrived at The Haid Theatre at Belmont Abbey College, and so has the Encore Theatre Company Youth Guild, also known as ETC, now in their 4th summer season at The Haid. Members aged 13 to 21 are rehearsing for the company’s first production, “Wilde Tales,” a play by Jeremy Bloom, adapted from Oscar Wilde’s “The Happy Prince and Other Tales.” ETC is comprised of 42 of the most talented local young performers who audition to take part in this popular summer theatre intensive. Last summer, these dedicated young actors brilliantly presented Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and the delightful “Seussical, The Musical.” Over the course of just a few weeks this summer, these young actors will bring the children’s stories of Oscar Wilde to life on stage. Director Jeff Manus encourages audiences of all ages: “These were written as children’s stories, so children absolutely can pull something from it, but I think adults will get a lot from this too. There are a lot of thought provoking moments in this show.” “Wilde Tales” runs July 13 and 14 at 7:30 pm and July 15 at 2:30 at The Haid Theatre at Belmont Abbey College. ETC shows are known for their high production quality, and performances often sell out. Theatregoers are encouraged to buy tickets in advance online. General admission tickets are $10 online or at the door. The company will also be presenting the Disney musical “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” July 26 to August 5.

Town of Stanley to hold fundraisers The Town of Stanley adopted a Master Plan and Development Guidelines, for Downtown Stanley, in February of this year. This plan includes beautification of Main Street, proposal of a public space for concerts and gatherings, adjustments to parking, redevelopment of existing buildings and numerous other items that will enhance the downtown – central business district. One of the first steps was replacing the welcome signs at each end of Highway 27. The next was establishing a Beautification Committee to identify, prioritize, fundraise and execute projects around Town. Over the past several months, the Beautification Committee and staff have been working behind the scenes to get some of these projects going.

Are you part of the family? Meditations God is always ready to heal For most people, one of the most important things in their lives are their families. Parents, children, aunts and uncles, and cousins, each mean so much to us. We live for our families, and would even die for them. No price is too heavy to pay for those we love. Along with your immediate family, have you ever thought of the church as your family? As a follower of Jesus Christ, you are a part of the family of God. You are part of the kingdom of God. Mark 3:31-35 records a time when Jesus Christ was preaching to those who had gathered to hear Him speak. He was in a house that was completely full of people. While there, His mother Mary came along with His earthly brothers to see Him at the house. Unfortunately, because of the large crowd, they could not get anywhere near Jesus. Some of the people gathered to hear Jesus speak told Him that His mother and brothers were there and wanted to speak to Him. Jesus had an interesting response. The Bible says He looked around at all of those gathered around Him and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers” (Mark 3:34, NKJV). He also said to them, “For whoever does the will of God is My brother and My sister and mother” (Mark 3:35, NKJV). What Jesus was saying to the crowd that day, was that those who are His followers are His family. We are the family of God, the body of Christ. As part of the family it is important to know that you belong. When you come
to Jesus by faith, confessing Him to all, you become a part of the family, bought by the precious blood of Jesus that Rev. Trent Rankin was shed Salvation Church for you. Gastonia, NC You are salvationchurchnc.org also loved. salvationchurchnc@gmail.com Jesus died for you because of love. Christians are to be people of love. Loving each other, and those we encounter every day, just as Jesus loves, is our mandate from God. As churches, love should always be one of our greatest traits. You are also needed. The family of God needs you. The local church needs you. God has given you skills and talents that benefit the church, and the kingdom of God. One of the greatest things about the family of God is the fact that there is always room for more. Jesus died for everyone, not just a select few. The gospel is for all people to receive. You have an invitation today to join the family of God. Jesus stands at your heart’s door, waiting for you to welcome Him in. The invitation is yours. Will you become a part of the family of God? All you have to do is believe. Place your faith in Jesus, and become part of the body of Christ, the family of God.

A colleague was videoing me interviewing a chaplain whose ministry is with the disabled. As my colleague played back the recording, the chaplain and I began complaining about how we looked in the video. My colleague said, “I can’t believe after this powerful praise of God video all they can see is something negative about how they look.” Have you noticed in conversation how often people refer to themselves in a negative or sarcastic tone? I often hear, “It’s because I am getting old,” or “I am too heavy, too young, or not intelligent enough.” I have been reflecting on the increasing number of people I encounter who feel unloved, unworthy, or low self-esteem. We live in a society that reflects a shaming environment. The young are bullied on social media. Commercials teach us we have to look and behave a certain way. Conversations are often focused on a particular age while leaving other age groups thinking they no longer matter. Add into the mix pressures of life, and soon some people develop distorted perceptions of themselves. As a result, we see an increase in suicide, depression, and anxiety. There are many people with wounds that run deep. Some turn this hurt inward toward themselves, or outward toward others. We know that things need to change, but commercials will still produce ads that make us feel we are missing the mark. Social bullying will continue to happen. And, hurting people will continue to hurt other people. When someone is deeply wounded, it is often difficult to begin the process of healing.

There is a way we can begin to heal. “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 NIV. God is always ready to heal. Rev. Angela Pleasants His unfailing love is our hope. District Instead of listening to the nega- Superintendent tive voices listen to the truth of of Catawba Valley God’s Word. “For you created Methodist Churches my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Psalm 139:13-14 NIV. You are not a mistake or accident. You are God’s beautiful creation. It doesn’t matter if you are tall, short, black, brown, or white we are made in the beautiful image of God. Don’t determine your worth by outward appearances, commercial gimmicks, or the latest outer apparel. Don’t determine your value by your age. Our worth and value are determined by God who loves us unconditionally. He loves us not because of what we do, but because God is love. “This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.” I John 4:9 NIV. So, choose life. Choose the abundant life that God has prepared for you. (If you are having thoughts of suicide, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-8255).

The North Carolina economy continues to grow, with positive indicators including housing prices and the Consumer Confidence Index, UNC Charlotte professor and economist John Connaughton says. During the Mid-Year Economic Update on June 5, Connaughton said the country is now in the second-longest economic expansion since 1854. This economic expansion has been under way for 108 months, as of early June 2018. Connaughton said, “Over the course of 2017, the North Carolina economy experienced a volatile economic growth pattern. The U.S. pattern of GDP growth was quite a bit different. During the first quarter, U.S. GDP grew by a sluggish 1.2 percent, but during the second through fourth quarters, U.S. GDP averaged over 3.0 percent growth. Overall, during this recovery/expansion, the North Carolina GSP has grown at a slower pace than the U.S. GDP.
Since 2010, the U.S. GDP growth has averaged 2.2 percent, while the North Carolina GSP growth has managed only a 1.6 percent rate of growth.” Connaughton added, “The good news going forward is that Consumer Confidence Index still remains high despite the political stalemate in Washington. In April, the index reached 128.7 - the highest level since 2000. What remains to be seen is the longer-term impact of the corporate and personal income tax cuts enacted at the end of 2017.” Housing prices are on the rise in Charlotte, with Connaughton reporting that prices have increased over the past year by 6.4 percent. Projections for 2018 are up for the state over the last quarter, Connaughton said. In 2018, Gross State Product (GSP) is expected to reach a level of $564,271.0 million. Real (inflation-adjusted) GSP is expected to increase by 2.7 percent over
the 2017 level. The state is expected to gain 113,000 net jobs in 2018. Twelve of the state's fourteen nonagricultural sectors of the economy are expected to experience employment increases during 2018. The sectors with the strongest expected employment increases in 2018 are construction at 7.6 percent, information at 4.5 percent, and hospitality and leisure services at 4.2 percent. The unemployment rate is low nationally, and only slightly higher in North Carolina. The United States started 2018 with an unemployment rate of 4.1 percent, which has declined to 3.9 percent by April. North Carolina started the year with a 4.5 percent rate of unemployment, which declined to 4.4 percent by April. By December 2018, the North Carolina unemployment rate is expected to remain around 4.2 percent.
