Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because is public domain. I am grateful.

Sunspots 747
Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to
someone else:
Christianity: BioLogos has an article discussing some great scientists who were Christians.
Education: Grammarphobia on the words "ottoman," "settee," "divan" and "sofa."
Environment: NPR and other sources report that North American bird populations have declined significantly in the last 50 years.
Health: NPR reports on research that indicates that taking brisk walks can relieve common types of pain.
Politics: FiveThirtyEight discusses how the religious right is driving political liberals people away from Christianity.
FiveThirtyEight also shows that moderates, independents, and undecideds are not the same.
Catherine Rampell complains that neither Republicans or Democrats are paying attention to the experts.
Science: From Knowable: mountain chickadees are able to remember at least 80,000 seeds they have stored. Birds with better memories are more likely to survive the winter.
NPR reports on how relatively easy it is to print out DNA sequences (using a 3D printer that emits DNA sequences), and the possible dangers of this technology.
The graphic used in these posts is from NASA, hence, it is free to use like this.
Thanks for looking!
