He said this. “The universe appears to be, like, 13.8 billion years old. Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. In another half billion years, or so, the sun will expand. And probably evaporate the oceans. And make life impossible on Earth. Which means that if it had taken consciousness 10% longer to evolve, it would never have evolved at all.” Wow, that Elon … Read the rest…
Convergent evolution. Mash those two words together and what do you get? Convolution. I’m sure that’s not what so-called evolutionary scientists want you to do with those words. But, just for fun, I’m gonna do it. Because my wife and I share a common ancestor. But we don’t share that common ancestor with our pets. That’s just silly to think. Some “evolutionary scientists” tout … Read the rest…
Hmm…let’s talk about a big bang. Sounds like fun. Right? I mean who doesn’t like the bang-up sound of a drum? Not Todd Rundgren. In fact, he wrote and sang a song about it back in the 80’s. I don’t want to work. I just want to bang on the drum all day. And I don’t want to play. I just want to bang … Read the rest…
There’s first-hand information. And there’s second-hand information. And those can both be eyewitness accounts of something. But then there’s mutual information. And, in a way, it’s an eyewitness account of something (or someone) even more important. I know. My description of mutual information sounds cryptic. But it’s because I first wanna share a little information I found in a social media post. The person, … Read the rest…
A few years ago I wrote about a protoplanet named “Vesta.” And how it might have some clues about how life on Earth might have formed? Scientists discovered some areas of impact on what they call a “minor planet.” And the scientists said this impacts show collisions with carbon rich asteroids. Then, they emphasized that carbon is the essential building block to all life on … Read the rest…
What do supernova remnants and stars have in common? Oops. When I say “stars,” I mean the so-called Hollywood stars. What do they have in common with supernova remnants? Well, nothing, really. Except that I’m talking about them both right now. And that’s because, in my serpentine sense of irony, I found a connection. It’s sort of a polar opposites connection. But that’s what … Read the rest…
One week from today is Christmas 2021. And in just about every part of the world there are Christians who will celebrate the birth of Jesus. But have you ever stopped to think (or even thought about it without stopping) how that celebration is unique to humans? No animals, birds, fish, or reptiles can be found putting up Christmas trees. Or buying presents. Or … Read the rest…
Newsflash! You are not an accident. So, don’t believe or trust anyone who monkeys around with the facts. Because they have an agenda that leads to eternal loneliness and torment. It should bring you JOY to know you are not an accident. Because if you’re just some sort of trained ape, what hope do you have? But maybe you wonder how I can confidently … Read the rest…
I was part of a debate…uh…conversation about whether or not The Flood actually happened. And you know The Flood I refer to, right? The guy who started the debate…uh…conversation said there’s no evidence that a worldwide flood ever happened. But he’s a perfect example of how so many deny that facts are real. That’s why they’re called facts. And facts are real despite how … Read the rest…
When you think of the ocean, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? That it covers most of the planet? Or that it’s salty? Maybe you think of it as a fun place to go vacation. And maybe your first thought is how it’s so blue. That’s what I think. And the same is true with the sky. So blue. But have you … Read the rest…
In our galaxy, but far, far away, are known forces at work. Like a giant vacuum cleaner. And I believe, once you hear this, you’ll see the zodiacal light and become a Christian. Well, maybe that’s just pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking. Or maybe some known forces will start working on your soul. But…to get back to my point for the day… You probably already know … Read the rest…
Just 5 days ago, I alluded to this event that took place 83 years ago today. That’s when Orson Welles did a radio broadcast based on the H.G. Wells (no relation and not even spelled the same way) book, War of the Worlds. The War of the Worlds broadcast was a special Halloween show. And, by many accounts, there were millions of people listening. … Read the rest…
