Grace Community Food Pantry, 245 Education Way, Bunnell, drive-thru open today from 1 to 4 p.m. The food pantry is organized by Pastor Charles Silano and Grace Community Food Pantry, a Disaster Relief Agency in Flagler County. Feeding Northeast Florida helps local children and families, seniors and active and retired military members who struggle to put food on the table. Working with local grocery stores, manufacturers, and farms we rescue high-quality food that would normally be wasted and transform it into meals for those in need. The Flagler County School District provides space for much of the food pantry storage and operations. Call 386-586-2653 to help, volunteer or donate.

Notably: Today is Juneteenth, which marks the emancipation of enslaved persons in Texas in 1865. Juneteenth is now a national holiday, observed on Monday. It is the birthday of Blaise Pascal (1623), who gave us that famous bet: that you supposedly lose nothing by believing in God, but lose plenty in case you don’t believe, and God were to exist. Which evokes what the English writer Julian Barnes wrote about the attacks on Richard Hawkins for his atheism: “Behind the excess, and the misrepresentation, of the attack, you can smell the fear. Believe in what I believe–believe in God, and purpose, and the promise of eternal life–because the alternative is fucking terrifying.” More existential thoughts in the daily quote below.

“It is a matter of record that in our thirty-six years of life in a nuclear-armed world we have been largely dead to the nuclear peril, and I would like to consider more closely what this failure of response seems to have been doing to our world. Pascal, taking note of the cerebral character of the condition of mortality, once observed that “it is easier to endure death without thinking about it than to endure the thought of death without dying.” His observation perfectly describes our response so far to the peril of extinction: we have found it much easier to dig our own grave than to think about the fact that we are doing so. Almost everyone has acknowledged on some level that the peril exists, but the knowledge has been without consequences in our feelings and our actions, and the superpowers have proceeded with their nuclear buildups, in the recent words of George Kennan,
“like the victims of some sort of hypnotism, like men in a dream, like lemmings heading for the sea.”

–From Jonathan Schell’s The Fate of the Earth (1982).
