Eden …

“Eden seems like a boring place.” – Dr. Freckles

  1. we needed to get kicked out
  2. this world was never going to be paradise, but it could be a garden
  3. it’s important, this time of year, to remember the beginnings too: look into Genesis this Easter, into the creation myth, and meditate on the story of Abraham and Isaac and the sacrifice that was not. And then think about what God gave up for the world, think about the sacrifice of Jesus, and what THAT means.

A simple and horrible truth …

This IS the horrible truth, and it does NOT make you anti-Semitic to express it:

It comes down to the belief that only the JEWS have ever suffered … and if others have suffered, they haven’t suffered enough by comparison.

I believe this is FALSE.

and also

This is a toxic and non-empathetic perspective, and it is not a mystery that so many Israelis seem okay with the GAZA war crimes.

Does this mean God does not love the Children of Jacob? – NO!

God loves the Hebrew people deeply, as He loves any Christian disciple. But to say this means THEY have only ever suffered is to ignore both the Bible and wider history. You might say they were clever at creating their own suffering, but no more than others.

SPACE SHOTS

“Space is so real when you’re looking down at the Earth.” – Dr. Freckles

  • Google Moon
  • Live Action
  • Geosynchronous titty shots

Most of the “space” shots I’ve ever seen have been DOWN SHOTS …

Not money shots … not star constellation shots taken live by an astronaut …

… it’s mostly looking down … like Space is so depressing, even the astronauts just look down.

Weird, right?
