But even those theories require crazy math and unknown and unfound stuff like dark matter. There are theories, that support a young creation that explain everything we see without all of the adjustments and rescuing devices to make them work. There is a great book by a Dr. Hartnett explaining how Cosmological physics (one step beyond relativistic physics) can explain everything.

This article has a few, of the many, examples of why Darwinian evolution can't work and why evolution is more story telling and wishful thinking than true science. We're told "the science is settled", but just like with covid-19 and climate change, the "science" keeps changing because it doesn't match the evidence.
"Ever since Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace independently “conceived the same very ingenious theory to account for the appearance and perpetuation of varieties and of specific forms on our planet,”5 there have been repeated efforts to explain the primitive origins of life. This area of investigation is recognized today as origins of life research (OoL). In simple terms, OoL proposes to demonstrate the production of living matter from nonliving matter.6
There are tremendous barriers to the success of such a production. Researchers would need to (1) synthesize and purify all chemical precursors of the four information-rich macromolecules that are essential for life on Earth: nucleotides, amino acids, lipids, and carbohydrates; (2) generate polymers of each macromolecule that are spatially oriented, self-organizing, replicable, and functional; (3) fabricate a self-dividing cell with a phospholipid bilayer that’s interlaced with structural, enzymatic, catalytic, and communicative proteins; (4) establish precise electrostatic properties permitting flow of molecular and chemical information within that cell and between the internal and external cellular environments;6 and the most fundamental barrier of all—(5) produce the information underlying the codes of all living systems that “has never been observed to arise from purely physical or chemical processes.”7
These barriers are only a short list of the fundamental challenges that must be overcome to produce eukaryotic cells, which are the basic functional units of life in fungi, plants, animals, and humans. To date, OoL investigators have never produced de novo (anew) any of the essential macromolecule polymers, any structural or heritable components of a functional cell, or any genetic codes required to specify, maintain, and replicate life.6 Never!"

How is our universe so finely tuned? Could it be that it was designed by an all powerful, omnipotent God?
This article explains the fine tuning of the fine structure constant.

My actions will make both more productive than they would otherwise have been and taught them to compensate for their weaknesses. What I have done will make them less, not more of a burden on society and yes, it does matter. It matters a lot.
Although he seems to do some good things, I don't trust his stated goals. There are enough things that he does that don't align with his stated goals, that I just don't trust him. I love when he thumbs his nose at the media and stuff, but I don't trust him.
Homeschooling was the best decision I've ever made.
One of the best things about homeschooling is it allows customization to optimize education to each kid's individual strengths, weaknesses, and interests. You can spend extra time to make sure they understand the things that are difficult, so they don't lose the foundation they need for other learning. You can rush through the things they pick up quickly and not waste their time on endless repetition. When you find something that is interesting, you can take a deep dive into that area and learn a lot. There is nothing that kids will learn better or faster than something they find interesting.
It is funny when you ask a homeschooled kid what grade they are in. Sometimes they just look at Mom questioning, but most of the time the answer is something like, "Well I am in 9th grade for Math, 8th grade for History, 8th grade for English, and 11th grade in Science." They can be at the right level for themselves in each individual subject rather than being forced to be at a certain level based on their age. The right level for any particular subject may be above or below the government school level.
Since homeschooling is customized for each kid, it is also amazing if you have a gifted kid and/or a special needs kid. I have both. My gifted kid has been reading at the college level since 2nd grade and we studied relatavistic physics for fun the summer between 8th & 9th grade. He does have trouble with handwriting so we did handwriting through 8th grade, but even in elementary school, he did papers on the computer because handwriting was so difficult for him that he couldn't compose properly if he had to handwrite. My youngest son has down syndrome, is 16, but uses mostly 2nd & 3rd grade material. He has grown so much since I brought him home (for 8th grade). Nothing I used with my gifted son works with my special needs son and vice versa, but both have thrived greatly. I also have a wonderful relationship with both.
Homeschooling wasn't just good for my kids. It was wonderful for me. I got to relearn/unlearn what I had learned in school. I have a great relationship with my boys. I have the pride of seeing my oldest leaving in a few weeks and knowing he is totally ready to be on his own.

One of the best about homeschooling is the kind of socialization that is taught. Kids in government schools learn only how to socialize with other kids of the exact same age. Homeschooled kids can comfortable interact with kids much younger, kids much older, and adults. You can almost always identify a homeschooled kid because they will look you (an adult) in the eye, shake your hand, and hold an intelligent conversation with you. Most government schooled kids won't do any of that. They avoid adults, whose wisdom they could learn from, like the plague.
I won't be joining. I've never used Twitter and don't plan to ever use X.
It is sickening how people will sacrifice their kid's well-being in order to feel good about themselves and make themselves look good to their woke buddies.
The same thing happens with the transgender push. It is trending, in certain circles, to have a transgender kid.
This is a deep article on the illogic of the "intellegencia" especially the media and higher education and what it is doing to our culture.

I was going to zap you for your beautiful bee/flower photos, but it doesn't look like you are setup for zaps. Don't miss out.
In Wyoming, when things lasted more than the promised 2 weeks, people quit worrying too much because we are so spread out, none of the rules made any sense and Wyomingites are practical if not political.
I grow some, but never as much as I'd like. We have a short growing season so if you do something wrong, there is no time to correct. I also get a bit lax in my garden maintenance when the highs get over 90F. I don't handle 90s well.
When state mandated masks , with an exception that I could argue using, I went everywhere maskless. I smiled at everyone, especially the employees stuck in masks. I only had trouble at one store. Others would see me maskless and wonder why. A few would take off their mask after seeing me maskless. Over time more and more people took off their masks until their was only a small percentage wearing masks. After the people had decided the masks were worthless, the governor finally removed the mandate. I like to think that my actions helped others to have the courage to stand up for the truth and against tyranny.
The truth is like that. So often the majority (or at least a large minority) don't believe the lie, but they doubt themselves or are afraid when they think everyone else believes it. All they need is a few courageous individuals, to speak out, before they also speak out.
Stand up vocally for the truth even when you think you are alone. You might be surprised how often you aren't alone. You are just surrounded by those who aren't courageous enough to speak up when they believe they are alone.

I won't allow genetic tests on my family or myself. Even if a company does genetic testing for all of the right reasons and with no plan to track you or anything else nefarious, you never know when that company might be bought out or the government might come calling with a request for information. It isn't worth the risk.
I agree. Organic isn't all that it is supposed to be, but it is still a ton better than the alternative.
I find it especially important for grains. (I don't eat grains at all being keto, but my family does)
Sorry for the duplicate post. I forgot my tags
I have this quote hung on the wall in my bathroom, so I see it first thing every morning as a reminder.
"O God, all my life is tine; Help me so to plan and arrange the hours of this day that I may serve thee in them all, for they are thine."
