And with the dismantling of the US Department of education, things are going to get a lot, lot worse.

This just in, no one has ever seen lightning, and if you say you have, we’ll have to burn you at the stake to protect the children.

Used to live across the street from a Freewill Baptist Church.

Always curious about other beings mindsets, went and attended a service.

Walked through the main door and felt the trope of crickets chirping. No one greeted me, said hello, welcome, nothing. I was stared at but never acknowledged.

The service was strictly talking. No hyms or singing.

The sermon told me they are creationists that believe "Singing and dancing lead to temptation".

Point is their "educational materials" were horrifying. Mostly just fear mongering and advising self segregation from reality.

Electricity is the flow of electrons, (negative charge,) caused by one substance gaining electrons, and one substance losing electrons in a redox reaction. The thing that is oxidized loses electrons, and the substance that is reduced gains electrons. Oxidation is visible in nature via Rust. Water and oxygen gain electrons that are lost by the pure iron creating an iron oxide that is reddish brown. (Batteries have a + and - sign, hooking them up into a loop with a device creates the electricity that powers the device. Everyday batteries utilize zinc and a magnese oxide, but there are many other types of materials that are used in other types of batteries.) 25 years of this Christian faith homeschool bullshit; pretty clear why these dipshits voted trump.

Why is there a 4th book? The way this book teaches, they don't even need a class.
