Health Note - How to get your BHB

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest...be in health,.. 3 John 1:2

"In their study, published in the February 16 online issue of Nature Medicine, the researchers described how the compound ß-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) directly inhibits NLRP3, which is part of a

complex set of proteins called the inflammasome. 

The inflammasome drives the inflammatory response in several disorders including autoimmune diseases, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, atherosclerosis, and autoinflammatory disorders.

“These findings are important because endogenous metabolites like BHB that block the NLRP3 inflammasome could be relevant against many inflammatory diseases, including those where there are mutations in the NLRP3 genes,” said Vishwa Deep Dixit, professor in the Section of Comparative Medicine at Yale School of Medicine.

BHB is a metabolite produced by the body in response to fasting, high-intensity exercise, caloric restriction, or consumption of the low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet. Dixit said it is well known that fasting and calorie restriction reduces inflammation in the body, but it was unclear how immune cells adapt to reduced availability of glucose and if they can respond to metabolites produced from fat oxidation.

Dixit and colleagues focused on how macrophages — specialized immune cells that produce inflammation — respond when exposed to ketone bodies and whether that impacts the inflammasome complex.
The team introduced BHB to mouse models of inflammatory

diseases caused by NLP3. They found that this reduced inflammation, and that inflammation was also reduced when the mice were given a ketogenic diet, which elevates the levels of BHB in the bloodstream.
“Our results suggest that the endogenous metabolites like BHB that are produced during low-carb dieting, fasting, or high-intensity exercise can lower the NLRP3 inflammasome,” said Dixit." SciTechDaily

Creation Moment 11/5/2026 - The "or" for Uranus and Neptune... just saying....

Hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds; Hebrews 1:2

“Uranus and Neptune may resemble twins today, but their chemistry is telling us that they are more like cousins with very different histories,” said Dr. Olivier Mousis, a researcher at the Southwest Research Institute.
“Their atmospheric compositions may be connected to different regions of the protoplanetary disk where the planets formed, which

would make their similarities a noteworthy coincidence.”
The study authors therefore used carbon monoxide detected in the upper troposphere as an indirect probe.
By modeling that process, the researchers can work backward to estimate how much oxygen lies below.
“We can’t directly access the deep atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune, but chemical tracers allow us to probe the conditions hidden beneath their visible clouds,” Dr. Mousis said.
“Studying carbon monoxide is particularly useful because of its abundance in the upper troposphere.”
For Uranus, the model used a fresh carbon monoxide measurement from ALMA, which the team put at about 5.6 parts per billion. Neptune’s level is roughly two orders of magnitude higher.
When vertical mixing was allowed to vary with latitude, the scientists estimated that Uranus has 62 to 177 times the Sun’s oxygen-to-hydrogen ratio, while Neptune has 222 to 342 times.
They also estimated carbon-to-oxygen ratios of about 0.06 to 0.52 for Uranus and 0.02 to 0.12 for Neptune.
Next, they compared those ratios with a model of the Sun’s protoplanetary disk.
Uranus’ upper range is close to the Sun’s value, while Neptune’s is clearly lower.
The results suggest Neptune’s building blocks may have formed near the water ice line closer to the Sun.
Uranus’ lower values could fit material that formed inside the methane ice line.
“Neptune’s chemistry is difficult to reconcile with the idea that it formed where we see it today, pulling from the same reservoir of cosmic materials as Uranus,” Dr. Mousis said.
“Due to a lack of in situ access to the atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune, the full scope of understanding regarding their composition, interiors and formations are fundamentally limited.”

Those "handwriting of ordinances"

"We say that Colossians 2:14-17 refers exclusively to the ceremonial law, having to the moral law (10 Commandments) not the remotest allusion whatever. 

And he who endeavors to hide behind this scripture as his defense for the neglect or violation of any mor al duties, will stand at last in the

judgment ashamed of his folly and speechless in his condemnation. In studying Col.2:14-17, we ought to pay some regard to the consistency of the figures which the apostle uses, lest we represent him as a simpleton in spite of his inspiration. 

It is first to be noticed that the subject of the apostle’s remark is the “handwriting of ordinances.” This expression will not apply in any sense to the ten commandments; for no abuse of language can be carried far enough to allow us to call them a “handwriting;” and they contained not a single “ordinance,” or ceremony. 

The “handwriting of ordinances” is not the ten commandments. The apostle further says that this “handwriting” was “blotted out.” 

--That only can be blotted out with the ink and pen of the scribe, which has been written by the hand of the scribe. That which is engraved in stone might be brushed over and discolored with ink; but the engraving would be there in all its distinctness still; it could not in any sense be “blotted out,” and it would be utterly inconsistent to apply that term to it. The apostle continues that this handwriting was “nailed to the cross.”

If we attempt to apply this to the ten commandments, we involve the astute and logical Paul in the absurdity of talking about nailing up tables of stone.

The figure of blotting out and nailing up the laws written by men upon parchment, as applied to what Christ accomplished by His

death upon the cross, is at once consistent and forcible. Christ was nailed to the cross. In Him all offerings met their antitype, all shadows their substance. They were there nailed in Him to the cross. 

Men could look upon Him and say, Here is the great sacrifice which supersedes all typical offerings. The laws for these are now no longer in force; they are nailed with Him to the cross. 

*But suppose we try to consider that the tables of stone were also there, in Him, nailed to the cross; in what respect was He the antitype of them? In what respect were they the shadows and He the substance? 

Q: Could men look upon him and say, Now, to-night I will plunge a dagger into the heart of my enemy; for the law, “Thou shalt not kill,” is there in Christ nailed to the cross, and is no longer binding?" Uriah Smirh

Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: Luke 21:26

Q: Is this Something OR Nothing?

--Time will tell.....

"Emergency preparedness warnings across the U.S., Europe, and Japan have been amplified in corporate media and turned into hysteria for the general public.
It's hard to say what's fueling the panic, but mentions of "stockpile food" in corporate media headlines jumped on October 23 to their highest level since the Covid-19 panic era of 2021.
What's indisputable is what has happened since those warnings were blasted around corporate media: 

--a political crisis began unfolding in Poland on Friday evening, 

--Iran warned that any renewed conflict with the U.S. would have "no geographical limitation" in retaliation,

-- and the U.S. Embassy in Moscow had warned of a "credible threat of a mass casualty event" in the Russian capital.

--All of those developments come just a week after an attempted communist revolution in France that led to days of riots, looting, chaos, and embarrassment for the Macron government.
It remains to be seen whether the preparedness warnings across the West and among U.S. allies are just fearmongering or whether the threats are credible and were part of some intelligence bulletin sent to allied countries. Notably, this is all happening just days before the U.S. midterm elections."

Creation Moment 11/4/2026 - When the BBC checked their brain at the door

I have seen the foolish taking root. Job 5:3

"This past summer, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) addressed the subject of origins in the five-part television series Evolution. 

Not too surprisingly, the possibility of supernatural creation was completely ignored. The United States Corporation for Public Broadcasting is in the process of airing these five episodes, with some possible variations from the BBC versions. 

The first United States episode, “Brain Power,” aired on October 14, 2026. It attempted to convince viewers that evolution and natural selection can explain the brain’s origin, without the need for a supernatural Creator. 

Q: Did they succeed? 

A: Only if you check your own brain at the door!

Despite acknowledging that scientists do not yet fully understand how the brain works, this first episode of Evolution claims scientists are beginning to understand how it evolved. But this contention is undermined by the shallowness of the purported explanations—or perhaps I should say, with the shallowness of the assertions. “Brain Power” doesn’t actually explain the origin of anything. Rather, the episode tells a series of hand-waving, “just-so” stories about how the brain supposedly originated over millions of years, with an emphasis on the brain of the highly intelligent dolphin.

Supposedly, the origin of vision played a large role in this process. It’s claimed that three billion years ago, the light-sensing molecule retinol enabled one-celled organisms to detect and respond to light, a primitive prelude to conscious thought. 

Then, over half a billion years, two light-sensing eye spots formed. After that, mutations caused the eye spots to become slightly curved, allowing better determination of light direction. Millions of years later, eye spots became genuine eyes . . . somehow. And today, highly intelligent human and dolphin brains are the result!

The critical details in this supposed process are ignored or smoothed over. The episode never explains how the first one-celled living organisms arose from nonliving chemicals; it simply assumes that they did. And magic words and phrases, uttered like incantations, repeatedly gloss over enormous difficulties in the evolutionary story:

“Brains are driven to expand”; “The first nervous systems arise”; “Evolutionary forces . . . boosted problem-solving powers”; “The virus led to a quantum change in the sophistication of the brain”; “Over the next two-and-a-half billion years, life diversifies from single-celled to multicellular forms”; “Over countless generations, simple eye spots transform”; etc.

As pointed out by Dr. Randy Guliuzza, these “magic” words and phrases have no explanatory power. Rather, they are naked, empty assertions. Anyone can assert that a biological structure arose via some natural process, but a mere assertion is not an explanation.

The viewer who is paying close attention may notice that the essence of the argument in the first Evolution episode may be summarized simply as, “Evolution did it.” The sophisticated computer animations and swelling music accompanying the narration give this naked assertion more apparent credibility than it deserves. But for those viewers who are actually using their brains (and not merely responding emotionally to the visuals and music), it should be apparent that this brain origins story is very low on substance."

HEALTH NOTE: L-carnitine of Red Meat

Beloved, 

I wish above all things that thou mayest...

be in health,.. 

3 John 1:2

"A nutrient known for helping the body burn fat may also cause inflammation when the immune system is in overdrive.
Yale researchers found that L-carnitine, a nutrient abundant in red

meat and widely used in exercise and weight-loss supplements, could worsen severe inflammation in mice. After a bacterial component triggered inflammation and sharply lowered blood levels of L-carnitine, restoring the nutrient made the animals sicker, suggesting the decline was protective.

The findings were published October 19 in Cell.
L-carnitine is best known for helping cells turn fat into energy. The body produces it naturally, and skeletal muscle contains particularly high concentrations.
“L-carnitine helps transport fats into mitochondria so they can be broken down for energy,” says Eric Elliott, MD, PhD, assistant professor of medicine (infectious diseases) at Yale School of Medicine (YSM) and the study’s first author. “In simpler terms, it has become synonymous with fat burning, which is why it has also gained prominence as an exercise and weight-loss supplement.”

The team was investigating metabolic changes during sepsis, a life-threatening condition in which the body’s response to infection damages its own tissues and organs. Much of that damage can come from uncontrolled inflammation rather than a failure to contain the infection.
“Sepsis is incredibly challenging,” Elliott says. “Patients with sepsis can become critically ill, and among patients with sepsis treated in intensive care units, some studies report mortality rates approaching 40%.”

To model the inflammation associated with sepsis, the researchers exposed mice to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a bacterial component. When L-carnitine levels in the animals’ blood dropped sharply, the team tested whether restoring the nutrient would improve their outcomes.

Replacing the Nutrient Made Things Worse

“We predicted giving carnitine back to these animals might improve their outcomes, but they actually did much worse,” Elliott says. “That told us the reduction in carnitine was an adaptive response.”
--They found that L-carnitine activated part of the cell’s internal alarm system called the pyrin inflammasome. 

--This triggered an inflammatory response involving the immune signaling molecule IL-17 and increased deaths among the mice.
“What was particularly striking was how detrimental IL-17 was in this model,” Elliott says. The team now wants to investigate whether blocking IL-17 might eventually help a subset of patients with sepsis, although that possibility remains untested.

Because skeletal muscle contains high levels of L-carnitine, the researchers suspected that its release from damaged muscle could help drive inflammation. Senior author Andrew Wang, MD, PhD, associate professor of medicine (rheumatology, allergy &

immunology) and of immunobiology at YSM, says the pathway may have implications beyond sepsis.
“There is tantalizing genetic evidence that the pathway we uncovered could be contributing to inflammation in a variety of diseases, particularly diseases in which muscle involvement has perhaps been thought to be a casualty of the disease rather than a potential driver,” Wang says.

The team found support for this idea in rhabdomyolysis, a condition in which skeletal muscle rapidly breaks down and releases its contents into the bloodstream, potentially causing acute kidney injury. In a mouse model, L-carnitine transport and pyrin inflammasome activation contributed to inflammation, suggesting that immune cells may interpret L-carnitine released from damaged muscle as a warning signal.
The pathway could also be relevant to cardiovascular disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer."

IN the NEWS - Europe on the brink?

Q: Is Europe on the brink of collapse?
It appears that this "revolution" racking Europe was organized online in France by unions.
It also appears to really be a Marxist-Islamist attempt to bring down the west.
They began by stirring up youth as a proxy to use for a front to get things rolling.
Years of Socialistic policies, mass Islamic migration and Globalist shenanigans for money and power have finally come home to roost as they have created a system of paralysis by the governments unable or unwilling or not knowledgeable about how to deal with the crises.

And brainwashed a generation in the education system that at least is sympathetic to, or outright supportive of, Marxism.

Google on E.G.W.'s comments on Unions: 

Warning Against Confederacies: White warned that labor unions, when they become “confederacies” with political aims, can become “an oppressive power” and “one of the agencies to bring a time of trouble”. She urged Christians to avoid aligning with such organizations if they seek to control government or restrict liberty. "And the trades unions will be one of the agencies that will bring upon this earth a time of trouble such as has not been since the world began." E. G. White

"Of the 54 organizations identified in the October protest ecosystem, 16 — or only about one in three — are student or youth organizations, including communist youth groups and a Muslim student organization, The remaining 38 include adult-led communist groups, labor unions, political parties, revolutionary-left organizations, advocacy groups and international propaganda outlets."
"Nationwide revolt on Saturday, a communist leader and academic, Vijay Prashad, celebrated the unrest with a message linking protests across three continents. "Paris-New Delhi-Buenos Aires," Prashad

posted on X, borrowing a line from the British punk band The Clash: "Let fury have the hour, anger can be power." Prashad was important not only for what he said, but for who he is: executive director of Tricontinental Ltd., a nonprofit funded by an American-born Marxist tech tycoon, Neville Roy Singham, who lives in Shanghai. The message captured how France's riots have become part of a wider international narrative of rebellion — a kind of "Chaos Inc." — amplified by a transnational network of communist and socialist organizations stretching from Europe to Asia, Australia, Africa and South America and North America." Frank Pots

"For the third Saturday in a row, Paris looked like a city under lockdown. More than 40 metro and RER stations were closed, and shopkeepers along the route boarded up their windows with plywood or kept their shutters down.

France's seats of power, including the Élysée Palace, the prime minister's office, and the National Assembly, were heavily guarded.
Some 70,000 police and gendarmes were deployed nationwide, and Nuñez said 40,000 checks had been carried out on roads and in train stations, 15,000 of them in the Paris region, to intercept weapons. Face coverings, Halloween masks included, were banned around the demonstrations.
By 9 p.m., 565 people had been arrested nationwide.

At an evening press conference, Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said every march had contained groups of rioters and looters, "many of them driven by the ultra-left and the radical far left," who attacked police with the goal of reaching the city centers "with unheard-of violence."
He listed Paris, Montpellier, Toulouse, Rennes, Marseille, Nantes, Angers, and Tours as cities where groups of several hundred people had tried to break through police lines with mortar fireworks, paving stones, and other projectiles, and said firefighters had to put out numerous fires.
The most serious incident took place at the end of the Paris march near Porte de Charenton, where a Molotov cocktail landed on the shield of a mobile gendarmerie unit and set a gendarme alight before his colleagues put out the flames. He ended up being slightly injured, Nuñez said.
another crisis appears to be unfolding in Germany on Halloween night: looting and chaos.
An initiative called "Gen Z regelt" ("Gen Z's got this") organized these protests "for education, health, climate protection and an affordable life" and opposing the return of military conscription.
Some protests in Germany also turned violent on Saturday night.
"The looting of stores has started in Frankfurt, Germany. Young first and second-generation migrants are attacking stores in the city," Poland-based digital news outlet Visegrád 24 wrote on X.

"German police were attacked with a Molotov cocktail in the city of Frankfurt on Halloween night. Youths participated in looting and clashes with police, with much of the footage livestreamed on TikTok," Budapest-based news outlet Remix News & Views wrote on X.
In Portugal, thousands of demonstrators gathered in Lisbon once again.
In The Hague, Netherlands, protests broke out after calls to demonstrate circulated online. According to Dutch police, 34 people were arrested, and one officer was taken to hospital with suspected hearing damage after fireworks were thrown at police. As in Paris, many shops across the city had boarded up their windows amid fears of rioting.
On Oct. 30, large crowds took to the streets across Italy following a call to demonstrate by the Italian trade union USB. The union estimated that more than 1 million people participated in protests across 70 cities, while the Interior Ministry put the figure at 255,000. Violent clashes between demonstrators and police broke out in Rome, Turin, Mestre, Vicenza, and other cities, according to Corriere della Sera.
Europe's mounting crises point to a troubling deterioration in stability.  

On Halloween night, unauthorized protests in Zurich and Basel turned into street violence as hundreds of young demonstrators built barricades, set fires, and attacked police. The slogan was “On en a marre – en Suisse aussi” — “We’ve had enough, in Switzerland too” — a direct import from the French social unrest that has already produced weeks of clashes, looting, and property destruction across the continent."

Creation Moment 11/3/2026 - Saturn Moons Surprise

For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 2 Peter 3:5

"Conventional scenarios fall short in explaining the origin of moons within our solar system. Recent computer simulations have strengthened the argument that these moons, particularly the moons of Saturn, were supernaturally created not that long ago.

Scientists think many moons within our solar system, including Saturn’s moons Enceladus and Mimas, may have hidden oceans of liquid water within their interiors. Computer simulations show that these suspected subsurface water oceans were likely not formed by large objects colliding with these moons, ruling out one possible

explanation for their existence. This result, combined with the results from computer simulations of these moons’ orbits over time, is bad news for natural explanations for the origin of these moons.

The existence of subsurface liquid oceans, if confirmed, is apparent evidence of youth, because it is virtually impossible that the “fine balance between internal heating and heat loss” needed to maintain a subsurface liquid ocean can serendipitously last for billions of years. Alternatively, it seems an unlikely coincidence that these moons recently became warm enough to support liquid oceans, just at the time we developed the technology to potentially detect them. Conventional scientists have acknowledged that such “lucky” coincidences make them uncomfortable.

Based on orbital calculations, conventional scientists have concluded that many of Saturn’s moons must be less than 100 million years old:
In computer models that trace those moons’ orbits back in time, everything went off-script roughly 100 million years ago, with the moons being jostled onto orbits that simply are not observed today. “Their orbits do get knocked out of the plane of Saturn’s equator way more than we observe,” [astronomer Matija] Cuk [of the SETI Institute] says. “Meaning that this history that we are modelling never happened, and the current moons must be younger than that.”

For this reason, they have been forced to argue that Saturn’s moons did not form billions of years ago but are instead relative “newcomers” to the solar system. 

Supposedly, a previous generation of moons existed. Some have proposed that today’s moons formed from leftover debris from collisions between the planets’ original moons. Of course, that is sheer speculation—there is no evidence this supposed earlier generation of moons ever actually existed!

However, other scientists strongly object, arguing that a recent origin, including a recent collisional origin, for Saturn’s moons is extremely unlikely. Yet the collisional origin seems to be the least far-fetched option among several unlikely scenarios. 

*This most recent study has revealed still another problem with the collisional explanation: the collisions can’t form the subsurface liquid water oceans thought to exist within some of these moons.

Q: So where does this leave conventional theories? 

--Apparently, many of Saturn’s moons must be relatively young, but a convincing natural explanation for their recent origin is elusive.

Of course, there is a possibility that some theorists seem unwilling to consider. 

Q: What if these moons had a recent and supernatural origin, like the Bible describes? 

The Lord made the earth out of water, and some creationists suspect He made the heavenly bodies out of water, too, transforming the water into other substances when He formed them. 

Evidence continues to grow stronger all the time not just for creation, but for a recent creation only 6,000 years ago."

About that LAW.....

"God wrote nothing but the ten commandments. 

These alone were written upon the tables; to these the terms law and commandments are both applied. 

By these circumstances and peculiarities they are sharply distinguished and set apart from all other injunctions and obligations. By these they are shown to belong, in a degree, and a sense not common to any other requirements, to the Most High. They are pre-eminently “the law of God,” and “the commandments of God.” 

These constitute that New Testament law by which is “the

knowledge of sin” (Rom.3:20), without which “there is no transgression” nor imputation of sin (Rom.4:15; 5:13), and the transgression of which is sin. 1 John 3:4. 

These constitute “His [God’s] commandments,” the keeping of which is “the whole duty of man,” and by which every work shall be tested in the judgment (Eccl.12:13,14); and they compose the “royal law” and the “law of liberty” by which James declares we shall be judged at last. James 2:8,12. 

They are the “commandments of God,” to which the third message of Revelation 14 brings us, in connection with “the faith of Jesus,” which includes all the teaching and precepts of Christ and His apostles in the New Testament. Rev.14:12. 

They constitute that law which God declared that His Son would “magnify” and make “honorable” (Isa.42:21), which he speaks of as “My law,” and declared that He would write it under the new covenant in the hearts of His people ( Jer.31:33; Heb.8:10) - the “His [God’s] commandments” which those will be found keeping who will be summoned at last to enter through the gates into the city of the New Jerusalem. Rev.22:14."

Creation Moment 11/2/2026 - Among the more Dangerous

Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: Romans 3:13

"Of all the fads and foibles in the long history of human credulity, scientism in all its varied guises — from fanciful cosmology to

evolutionary epistemology and ethics — seems among the more dangerous, both because 

--it pretends to be something very different from what it really is

--and because it has been accorded widespread and uncritical adherence.... One longs for a new Enlightenment to puncture the pretensions of this latest superstition."

Austin L. Hughes, The New Atlantis, Fall 2012

"Evolutionary epistemology refers to three distinct topics: (1) the biological evolution of cognitive mechanisms in animals and humans, (2) a theory that knowledge itself evolves by natural selection, and (3) the study of the historical discovery of new abstract entities such as abstract number or abstract value that necessarily precede the individual acquisition and usage of such abstractions. As a branch of inquiry in epistemology, evolutionary epistemology lies at the crossroads of philosophy and evolutionary biology." wiki

Schopenhauer, Ellen White and Scripture on "the will"

Battle of the will....since the beginning.... 

And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Genesis 2:16,17

"To understand this one, you must understand Schopenhauer beyond this essay. His broader philosophy laid out in the world as will and representation. 

It was built on a single idea, the will, the blind insatiable force of

desire that drives all living things. 

*He argued that this will, this appetite, this impulse, it was the root of all suffering. 

*And not because wanting things is wrong, but because the will has no off switch. 

*It always wants more and if that's left unchecked, it will destroy everything around it. 

*Civilization, in his view, was the set of structures that channeled the will." 

Kait Willett

"Ellen White describes the will not as mere taste or inclination, but as the deciding power that directs all other faculties toward either obedience to God or disobedience.

She writes, “The will is the spring of all your actions… it was at the Fall given into the control of Satan”, and that humanity’s destiny depends on whether it is enlisted “on the side of God and right”. Ellen White emphasizes that God’s will is not to destroy our will, but to purify and refine it so that it becomes identical with His own.
Her counsel includes:
Kept on God’s side: “Keep your will on the Lord’s side… every emotion… into captivity to the will of Jesus”. 

Active choice: Desires for goodness are good, but without choosing to serve God, they “avail nothing."

Daily renewal: Drawing daily from the “fountain of truth” strengthens the will against temptation." 

Google

"In the Bible, “will” refers both to God’s sovereign plan—seen in verses like Ephesians 1:11 and Romans 12:2—and to human free will, the God‑given ability to choose obedience or disobedience (Genesis 2:16–17; Deuteronomy 30:19).
Human Will Created with moral choice: Humans bear God’s

image and can choose good or evil (Genesis 1:26–27; 2:16–17).
Freedom with responsibility: Scripture repeatedly calls people to choose obedience (Deuteronomy 30:19).
Fallen but active: The human will can resist God (Genesis 3; Isaiah 1:19–20).
Relationship Between God’s Will and Human Will: Humans plan, but God directs outcomes (Proverbs 16:9). 

Holy Spirit’s role: The Spirit helps believers align with God’s will (Romans 8:26–27)."

"Argentine director Marco Berger is know for making films that blur lines between genres, gender & sexuality. From the homoerotic boys trip of Horseplay to the flirtatious friendship of The Astronaut Lovers, his work often challenges audiences’ ideas around identities and labels, leaving us to question their usefulness in the first place.
His latest, Perro Perro, takes these ideas into surreal, artful, and arousing new directions for an exploration of homosocial bonding that’s downright animalistic.

Set in a world we quickly realize isn’t quite like our own—hinted at in small details like the fact that there’s not a cellphone or screen to be found—the film takes us far off the grid to a tropical forest outside of Buenos Aires where two couples are vacationing, Juan (Germán Flood) & Jazmin (Bianca Brandimarte) and Rama (Matias Quiroga) & Vecina (Antonia De Michelis).
One day, while the men are boating down the river, they spot a stray animal off in the brush. They paddle closer and call to it, and it’s only when it approaches that we realize it’s a full-grown man (Juan Ramos) who looks much like them, only he’s not wearing any clothes and behaves an awful lot like a dog.
They’re not bothered by this at all—in fact, as we come to learn, this is the norm in the reality of the movie: Apparently, there are plenty of wild humans roaming around who don’t speak, don’t wear clothes, and are sometimes even taken in and treated like pets.

With time, Juan decides to name his new companion Max, and the two develop a playful bond. They wrestle around outside, Juan feeds him scraps from the table, and he even knows the spot on Max’s chest where he likes to be scratched.
Max is, for all intents and purposes, behaving like a pet dog, and there’s no indication that there’s something odd or suspicious going on here. But because he’s depicted as and played by a man—and a very handsome one at that!—one begins to wonder if what’s developing between them is sexual or romantic in nature.
As Juan’s day-to-day life gradually becomes more centered around Max and keeping him happy, Jazmin can’t help but feel twinges of jealousy. And when she’s away, Juan even sneaks Max into the house for a shower—out of context, it looks like cheating, yet what’s so wrong about someone giving their dirty pet a wash?" msn

Creation Moment 11/1/2026 - More Cosmological storytelling

"Well, data from the James Webb Space Telescope has done it again! 

According to popular science reports, “JWST has revealed that galaxies were spreading carbon, oxygen, and other heavy elements through space just 500 million years after the Big Bang. The surprising discovery suggests the young universe became chemically enriched much earlier than expected. . . .” 

According to the big bang model of the universe, “The earliest universe contained little besides hydrogen and helium, the two simplest elements at the top of the periodic table. As gravity gathered this material into dense clouds, stars began to form. Inside those stars, extreme heat and pressure enabled nuclear fusion and other reactions that created heavier elements such as carbon and oxygen. When stars reached the ends of their lives, including some that exploded as supernovae, they released those elements into space. That material later became part of new generations of stars and planets and eventually contributed to the chemistry needed for life. The carbon in the human body and the oxygen people breathe were both produced inside earlier generations of stars.” 

Now, of course, this is nothing more than storytelling. 

*No one has observed this supposed process of star formation. 

*This is simply a model applied to the evidence. 

But it’s always had a big problem—

Q: where are these “pristine” early stars (called Population III stars) made only of hydrogen and helium? In this model, these Population III stars should exist, but they’ve never been observed. 

Q: So where are they? 

Well, this new study, which used JWST data to supposedly peer at “galaxies as they appeared more than 13 billion years ago”—that’s very close to the alleged big bang—claims that these stars are elusive because “early galaxies were already sending heavier elements such as carbon and oxygen into surrounding space much sooner than expected” and “if galaxies were already enriching nearby space only 500 million years after the Big Bang, truly pristine gas may have disappeared quickly. As a result, Population III stars may not have remained common for long enough to be easily observed.” 

The article says, “Remarkably, the chemical signatures surrounding these infant galaxies looked similar to those found around far more mature galaxies billions of years later. The finding suggests that even at cosmic dawn, galaxies were already manufacturing heavy elements and spreading them into their surroundings.” But in reality, the finding does not suggest that “galaxies were already manufacturing heavy elements and spreading them” at cosmic dawn—the evidence is that galaxies look the same no matter how far away they are (remember, they are measuring distance, not time—the alleged time is also an interpretation based on assumptions). The idea that pressure in “early” stars created heavy elements and then supernovae spread those elements to be incorporated into newer stars and planets is an interpretation of the observational evidence. It’s storytelling! 

And it’s storytelling that is constantly changing. 

It doesn’t matter what evidence arises, even when that evidence contradicts earlier expectations—the evolutionary models are so plastic, they just mold them to fit the new evidence. 

*There’s another explanation for why Population III stars have never been found and why the universe isn’t matching the expectations of those who start with the big bang: 

The big bang didn’t happen. 

The Bible gives us the true history of the universe, and it didn’t begin with a big bang and stars slowly forming. It began when God spoke

and fashioned the earth, covered with water, and then He created light and darkness, and on day four of creation week, He created the stars fully functioning also. The evidence from the JWST will continue to defy secular scientists’ predictions because they have the wrong worldview based on the wrong starting point. Instead of trusting the interpretations and storytelling of men and women who weren’t there, don’t know everything, and often make mistakes, we should believe the eyewitness account of history given to us by the God who was there, knows everything, and has never made a mistake. “The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And the expanse is declaring the work of His hands” (Psalm 19:1)."
