Humans as Large Language Models

Somebody named Devon Eriksen describes a vast number of humans as large language models. These humans thus even wouldn’t be people. He at least doesn’t deny to them that they still are humans. Devon Eriksen insists that he didn’t find a clever or funny way to say that somebody is stupid, but is giving an […]

Addendum to “Creationists Present Science (Part 9)”

In the ninth part of my article series “Creationists Present Science”, I mentioned that Creationists decided that God created the world without predators. While the tale of the Creation really gives no hint to such a tenet, the prophet Isaiah mentioned at least twice that lions some day won’t devour other animals anymore. I don’t […]

Not a Real Army (Part 4)

While news report that Germany is rearming itself and reintroducing military service, reporting something accurately is in truth impossible if you confound all technical terms. Germany did never abolish the liability to military service! Germany also did never suspend the liability to military service. The German government in 2010 decided to cut spending in several […]

Creationists Present Science (Part 11)

In the same episode, which I already treated in the tenth part of this article series, a Creationist scientist mentioned the coelacanth. This group of fish according to the fossil record appeared between four-hundred-twenty-million and four-hundred-ten-million years ago during the early Devonian Period. Coelacanths around two-hundred-forty-million years ago during the middle of the Triassic Period […]

The Wrongdoing of Sodom Repeated

The Old Testament is contained in the Bible because the New Testament very often makes references to it. Samaritans in the Gospel of Luke refuse hospitality to Jesus. So James and John suggest that the Samaritans should get consumed by fire from the sky. Exactly what happened to Sodom and its affiliate cities! Not all […]

Twist-Off Bottle Cap Day!

Though nobody knows why, on January, 31st in each year is the Twist-Off Bottle Cap Day. Since when this fancy holiday has been celebrated also is forgotten. But the twist-off bottle cap is an invention by Hyman Frank, who on August, 6th in 1872 got the patent US 130208 for it. Twist-off bottle caps meanwhile […]

Religious Broadcasts always had been Popular

I have since quite a while wondered about the increase in religious tv shows. One of those religious tv stations is in Germany broadcasting the 1980s tv series Highway to Heaven. It had indeed, albeit in Germany was broadcasted a shortened version, been popular in Germany in the 1980s. My Catholic grandpa and I also […]

Skipped in History Class: Knights (Part 5)

Knights were warriors, yet believed that God dislikes war. He would only permit a party, who fought for a righteous cause, to be victorious. This resulted in the development of tournaments, in which knights took part instead of going to war or fighting feuds. In the Late Middle Age existed already laws, which should reduce […]

Creationists Present Science (Part 10)

In another episode of the same documentary, a Creationist admitted that Creationists only since few decades deploy scientific methods because Creationists no longer ignore clear evidence, so that other scientists, who use the same methods since centuries, are already far ahead. Creationists nevertheless won’t give in to the idea that the commonly accepted explanations for […]

Effective Prayers or just Kotodama (言霊)?

Is praying for other people a good idea? Most likely yes, but not knowing the other people, their causes, or great solutions is a source of insecurity. Some of the people, who already heard God’s voice, reported that the voice asked them to pray for certain other people! A funny idea if it happened this […]
