1. If you are a Christian, what you were taught about the Trinity is probably wrong. It’s one of the most commonly misunderstood things about the Christian faith. I want to share a few things about the Trinity to help clear some things up.
2. The Trinity is kind of like “vaccines” of the science world. No one can really explain it. You’re not allowed to question it. And if you ask for evidence of it, no one can seem to find anything definitive.
3. A few years ago, I started asking questions about the Trinity at church. The answers I got—and the way they were given to me—started to feel real familiar.
Exactly 5 years ago I published a book I hoped might change the world in a tiny way. It wasn't my first book, but it felt like it might be my most important.
I'd always wondered where polio came from. It was nearly unheard of until the 1890s. Then, seemingly out of nowhere...
In the 1890s, polio began to appear in the US. What would've caused this dreaded disease, once unknown, to become so much more prevalent than before?
For years, I’d heard about a supposed connection with DDT, the pesticide that began being used shortly after World War 2.
Some of the DDT/polio connections made sense, while others seemed farfetched. The biggest problem with DDT? It wasn’t used in the US until after World War 2.
If you’re a mother, or are thinking of having children, I want to share 9 tiny stories from history about doctors, medicine, mothers, and their children.
Please read this before you trust a single thing they say.
Throughout the 1800s, doctors believed “dentition,” or teething, was an extremely dangerous time for infants. All sorts of horrible diseases could enter their body. Their remedy? Mercury teething powders. Given to hundreds of thousands of infants—the original source of “polio.”
Around the same time, women giving birth in hospitals would have their babies delivered by doctors who refused to wash their hands—doctors who’d just performed autopsies & other gruesome procedures. The result? Thousands of women died while doctors insisted it wasn’t their fault.
My top 22 epiphanies, realizations, reluctant admissions, and random thoughts for 2022.
Let me know if I've left something important out!
Here they are (plus a few extras perhaps), in no particular order:
1. Hypocrisy isn’t a sign of mental weakness. It’s a sign of strength—a sign someone thinks they’re winning & can get their way on anything, no matter the irrationality.
Pointing out hypocrisy is just highlighting the side that’s winning.
Find some hypocrisy in your life today!
2. Email is still the best project management tool there is. It has search. It works as file storage. You can sort and organize. Everyone knows how to use it.
There are a bunch of other project management tools out there, but nothing beats email for flexibility and ease of use.
As a hated, outspoken anti-vaxxer for the past six or seven years, I feel compelled to share a few thoughts on the coronavirus vaccine now that it appears a bit safer to talk honestly about.
(thread)
For those of you who got the vaccine (and regret it), I am truly sorry. I have no ill will towards you and want to work together towards undoing/fixing whatever these vaccines have done.
Just like you, I was pro-vaccine at one point in my life.
Just like you, something happened that changed me.
@benshapiro, a conservative thinker famous for pushing COVID vaccines on his followers, recently had a dramatic change of heart.
A stark U-turn like this is what we call a “teachable moment.” I’m hoping he (& others similarly duped) might continue this lesson a moment longer...
In a rare act of contrition, Ben Shapiro admitted he & many others were fooled about COVID vaccines b/c he was lied to by people he was supposed to have been able to trust.
Does he think COVID is the only vaccine-related lie that’s ever been told?
It would behoove Ben Shapiro and you and humanity to spend a moment reflecting on what you “believe” because others insist something is true about vaccines.
There are things you STILL feel unnecessary to question about vaccines but should take another look at.
