@niccruzpatane@elonmusk , if you need an unlicensed tester for a fully autonomous car near Phoenix, I'm a stroke survivor who would love the freedom of "driving" again after almost 14 years without that ability!
@robotaxi
@elonmusk@elonmusk when you are looking for testers before fully self-driving cars are available to the public, pick me! I haven't been able to drive for over 12 years, due to strokes at age 39. I understand road rules but lost license due to slow reflexes. I crave transport independence!

Deeply saddened to share that Baby Indi has passed away, after being deprived breathing assistance.
Let me be clear: the British government murdered her. They denied the right of Indi’s parents to pursue other treatment for her, keeping her captive by the court mandated medical team that decided Indi must die. The medical team violated their sacred duty to Do No Harm.
This is murder, plain and simple. It’s a stain on the national conscience of the United Kingdom. There must be a reckoning, there must be reform, and there must be reparations for the evil acts committed by both the medical teams and the UK courts.
Pray for Indi’s grieving parents and let’s work together to ensure such horror never happens again.

Homosexuality and transgenderism are not part of anyone’s creational design, no matter what our feelings say. Our feelings are not free of sin, and they don’t trump God’s truth. Christ promises to forgive and restore all who repent and trust in him for salvation. Christ does not make an ally with the sins his blood crushes on the cross and washes clean. There is hope for all in the gospel.
Never underestimate the power of a good cookie!
Rachel along with her husband, David, was held hostage for 20 hours in her apartment in Ofakim.
Thanks to her personality she was able to stall the terrorists by offering coffee and cookies until the SWAT team finally rescued them.
She must put a lot of charm into these cookies. Who would have thought that those sweets could help save lives?
Rachel is my absolute hero of the day. What an incredible woman!

Did you know that creationists and evolutionists have the same facts? Christians and non-Christians have the same facts? The facts are not what people argue/debate over. It’s the interpretation of the facts that people argue about.
And one’s interpretation depends on one’s worldview. And one’s worldview depends on the presuppositions they have. Ultimately there are only two foundations our worldviews, God’s Word or man’s word.
When a scientist digs up fossils, are they digging up the past or digging up the present? They are digging up the present. Fossils exist in the present. They certainly existed in the past, but we only have the present.
So, events that happened in the past resulted in the fossils being where they are found in the present. This is a point I made to Bill Nye the Science Guy when I debated him at the Creation Museum in 2014.
I explained this point in the context of discussing the meaning of the word “science.” The word itself means knowledge, and I wanted people to understand the difference between knowledge about past events when we were not there to seem them, versus knowledge gained in the present through observation (using our five senses) and repeatable testing that leads to our wonderful technology.
Knowledge about the past is called Historical Science. Knowledge gained in the present through observation and repeatable testing is called Observational Science.
Now secularists often get very emotional over this issue as they don’t want to acknowledge such a distinction. They want to use the one word “science” for discussing their beliefs (like evolution) about the past and for observation and repeatable testing when discussing technology.
The reason they get so emotional is that they don’t want to admit that naturalistic evolution is a belief. It is in the realm of historical science not observational science. Evolution in fact is an anti-God religion attempting to explain the past regarding how the universe and all life came into being by natural processes.
I’ve encountered many pastors and theologians who will state that they trust science because they use computers, fly in airplanes, and drive motor cars. So, when a secular scientist states that science has proved evolution/millions of years, they think they have to believe and trust these scientists because this is also “science.”
But they don’t understand, and it’s certainly not taught in the secular education system, that the word “science” when used for technology and evolution is being used to mean two totally different things.
The example I gave Bill Nye went something like this:
If I went with Bill Nye to the Grand Canyon, we can agree on the fact that there are different sedimentary layers laid down on top of each other. We can agree one such layer is called the Coconino Sandstone. We can measure the thickness of the sandstone layer and we can agree on that. We could also agree on the size of the grains that make up this sandstone. Now that’s observational science. We have the same facts.
But what we disagree on is how long ago the sandstone layer was laid down and how long it took to be laid down. Neither of us were there in the past to see the layers form. Now we are talking about historical science. Bill Nye believes the layers of the Grand Canyon were laid down slowly over millions of years, millions of years ago.
I believe the layers were laid down quickly around 4,300 years ago from the Flood of Noah’s Day. We have different interpretations about the same facts in the present regarding how those facts connect to the past.
Neither of us can scientifically prove our beliefs. However, I contend that for many reasons the observations of the various layers and their grains and other factors confirm the layers were laid down catastrophically just thousands of years ago, not slowly over millions of years.
A creation scientist and a secular scientist can agree on how deep the Grand Canyon is. They agree the Colorado river flows through the Canyon and any such river does cause some erosion of the rocks. This is observational science. However, when secularists claim the Colorado river eroded the Canyon over millions of years, that is now in the realm of historical science. No one was there to see what actually happened.
It’s possible the canyon was formed by processes that allowed the Colorado river to flow through it. In fact, creationists point to a number of factors that confirm the area was uplifted toward the end of Noah’s Flood forming a dam. Because of the layers were weakened by this uplift and lots of left over water from the Flood was behind the dam (one observes evidence such water once in existence in that area), the dam broke and the Canyon was eroded catastrophically. This canyon then allowed the Colorado river to flow through. So the river didn’t form the canyon. That’s a different interpretation of the same facts of the present in relation to the past.
Secularists are not teaching students in education to think correctly about science and the past. Sadly, generations of students are being brainwashed by secularists who are committed to their religion of evolution and don’t want students to think critically about the origins issue.
Some Christians believe Psalm 104 describes what happened at the end of the Flood:
“You covered it with the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains. At your rebuke they fled; at the sound of your thunder they took to flight. The mountains rose, the valleys sank down to the place that you appointed for them. You set a boundary that they may not pass, so that they might not again cover the earth.” (Psalm 104:6–9)
Creation scientists believe God ended the Flood by raising the mountains and lowering the oceans basins, so the water poured off into the oceans we have today. It is believed the mountains were not has high or the ocean basins as deep before the Flood. This also explains why marine fossils are found on mountain tops like in the Himalayas. The fossil layers were laid down and uplifted towards the end of the Flood (or as part of post-Flood events).
Make sure you teach your children and/or students to understand the difference between Historical Science (or Origins Science) and Observational Science (or Operational Science). Make sure they are prepared with knowledge so they won’t be brainwashed by secularists attempting to convert them to their anti-God evolutionist religion—a religion of meaninglessness and hopelessness.
@shaunlovesjesus During 13 years of infertility with recurrent losses, i often listened the lie that God didn't love me. But the reality is, we cannot treat God according to the earthly gifts He gives or chooses to withhold. He already gave far more than any of us deserve, His Son!
