In creaciontist Schoolbooks Earth is still 6000 Years old, there is nothing which has changed. For creacionists, all answer is in the Bible, not in science facts, as in an interview “The human made globalwarming is a lie, the humans can’t change the creacion of God”, creacionism in action. Trump is one of these.

That is the problem of religion, they confuse faith with knowledge. Believing in something is always personal and never can be promoted or even imposed as truth, this is why religion is so harmfull, not the believes or faith of individuals. Religion only creates ignorants and hypocrits.
Bro it’s got to be like 6025 years old by now.
…and three month
What a shithole country.
I know people in my day to day who dont belive the earth is more than 2k years old, who believe there were never “cavemen”, and dinosaurs weren’t real. Baffling. This person is rich and has a ton of land. Education dont mean shit in freedom land.
I’ve definitely fucking felt it before, luckily only a little 120VAC tickle, but yea I felt it
As a kid, I used to purposely stick my fingers between prongs while plugging Christmas lights in in order to electrocute myself. It’s shocking that I came out from that unscathed.
Electrocution is electric execution. Assuming you’re still alive, you shocked yourself. Pet peeve of a former electrician, forgive me.
I share your pain. In EMS, I have to bite my tongue on every “electrocution” call.
Eh, you only get a little tickle from that. Now completing a circuit across your chest is a doozy. Would not recommend.
I had that feeling… I never did it again. I am lucky it was a split second or I’d be dead.
You felt god!
omg it’s real? 🤣
Yep, real science
You know, back in time before the dark ages, Christianity was very scientific. Science was a tool that god gave to humans to understand the world they live in.
And now it’s scawwy
Yes, monks are authors of scientific works, but as said, only if it not denies the Dogma (if they don’t wanted to burn) , also not accessible by the people and only for the elites, apart it wasn’t really science how we understand it now, it was more a process to adapt theories to fit the Dogma. But they invent also very nice things, eg. in the middle age, a number system to write numbers fro 1 to 9999 in one sign by Cistercian monks.
This looks like tunics language
This is brilliant! Now finish it by making 100000 a “knot” by making it like 99999 but fill in the missing side bars. Then start a new hundred thousand knot by using a hyphen. So 100001 would be [knot]-[1]
Now we just need to get rid of computers, typewriters and technology so this can be rightly appreciated.
Replace ‘electricity’ with ‘wind’ and/or ‘moving air’ and/or ‘breath’, and now you understand what Proto-Judaic Canaanites circa 800 BCE thought ‘spirit’ was.
Looking back when I was growing up I think the most nefarious thing about books like this is that printing gave a lot of implied legitimacy because it was expensive to print a book.
Speaks to how much money these people had to miseducate people.
So where does that put people who have been electrified? Did they simply die of terror because they thought they had grasped a live wire?
God called their souls home. Of course. HE works in mysterious ways but we do live in His universe and we have to trust His wisdom.
But surely that’s some old book and is no longer used to teach today, right? Right???
It’s been revised since this edition. I was homeschooled with the “for Christian Schools” textbooks (and was sent to college at the University that produced them) I was just young enough to get the newer editions as they were being rewritten, my cousins who were 4 grades ahead of me weren’t as lucky and had the version shown in the picture. The versions I had were slightly better, they at least didn’t have this particular nonsense in them. But they still all taught a very warped view of science, and I was in my mid-twenties before I stopped believing in Creationism. The last ~10 years since then has taken both a lot of work to learn about reality, but has also been quite a lot of fun. Science is really cool if you aren’t stopping all the time to try to fit God in somehow.
Why is there a 4th book? The way this book teaches, they don’t even need a class.
Are they dense?? Electricity comes from the power outlet. Everyone knows that
Of course. That’s why god created power outlets. So mommy can plug in the electric mixer, to make you chocolate chip cookies
This is for real? How is it even legal?
Apparently it is real. Wild

Some scientists think that the sun may be the source of most electricity.
I wish most electricity waa from renewable energy
Lots of it is generated by burning biologically sequestered solar energy from hundreds of millions of years ago.
Which is not renewable. Unless you can wait for a couple of million years.
not even then. the conditions that turned vegetation in to coal no longer exist
The process still exists, its just limited to rare environments, and will never be the scale as it once was.
The thing is that back in Carboniferous, there were the first trees but no decomposers for that so the process still exists but there are other processes that make it much more unlikely
The planet can, maybe the next species of critters to pick up a pointy stick can make use of it after it resets itself.
One of my favorite insane conspiracy theories is that petroleum is constantly produced and is a renewable resource but that fact is hidden from us because it would mean “they” wouldn’t be able to impose carbon taxes and create more profit from other energy sources.
I suppose it isn’t completly a lie. It just takes 100 million years under some pretty specific circumstances, but there’s likely places where it’s currently being produced naturally right now…
The theory is that there is biotic petroleum(the oil we know) formed from biomass from millions of years ago and there is abiotic petroleum that constantly forming from carbon sources deep in the Earth.
Depending on what degree of delusion, they either believe that there is more petroleum being produced than we use or there is less being produced than we need and we need to offset the deficit with other forms of energy.
As you can imagine, the believers in limitless abiotic petroleum tend to have some overlap with young Earth creationists and flat-earthers.
Guess there are no Christian electricians then…
I think those ones are call magic smoke workers…
Electricians just need to know how to follow the rules, they don’t need to understand the underlying physics. Engineers, on the other hand…
But we do.
If you don’t have a working knowledge of your craft, how can you apply common sense?
As the generation that I’m from dies out, there goes the knowledge.
Good electricians might understand the theory behind it, but average ones just need to meet code without wasting too much time or materials. And to do that they follow patterns that work, patterns they learn from good electricians (or engineers).
Also, as an outsider, it seems like modern electrical code is designed so electricians don’t need to use common sense. For better or worse…
