U.S. Supreme Court rebuffs ‘Number of the Beast’ religious dispute
WASHINGTON, June 28 (Reuters) – The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to take up a religious rights case involving an Idaho man who refused to provide the state his Social Security number in a job-related filing because he said it was “the number of the beast” – an ominous biblical reference.

A Navy veteran who was ridiculed over the “white Tic Tac” UFO sightings in 2004 wants a public apology from the Defense Department following the long-awaited US government report about military personnel spotting other strange sightings in the sky.
In a series of Facebook posts after the report’s release on Friday, Kevin Day said his career “paid a price” after he was “laughed at, mocked, and talked about behind closed doors within [the US Department of Defense]” for trying to describe what he’d seen on his radar screen in November 2004.
