I haven’t counted them, personally. But I’ve read, from reliable sources, that the Bible gives instructions to “fear not” 365 times. So, clearly, you should live in fear. Right? I can hear the voice of Spock, “That’s most illogical, Tony.” And it IS most illogical to live in fear. On the other hand (which would be the left one, by the way), this world … Read the rest…

Teaching methods matter. Because spongy little minds soak up what they’re taught depending how it’s taught. At least that’s how Charlotte described it.

And superstitious people believe it has the power to grant … Read the rest…
