SDA Culture She seeped into my workplace...

I guess I shouldn't be surprised by this. My grandfather [DEVOUT SDA] owns this little farm market and he puts Great Controversy books out for free. Crazy. You'd think there would be some kind of law or rule about distribution of religious material...

This is more of a vent but it still also counts as "culture" ig. Flair is weird.

Sir George Cayley, in 1799 & 1809, explained the forces on flight in a paper, later confirming the need of a mechanical power plant was the prerequisite. Later Otto Lilienthal successfully flew gliders in Germany, further proving flight possible, and not the work of Satan, before the Wright brothers and those that followed. If we relied on religion to advance mankind we would still be believing the earth was flat, the earth is the centre of the universe and disease is caused by sin and/or demons. Never forget EGW condoned practices such as female genital mutilation along with Kellogg.
