I’ve got permanent whiplash from ricocheting between seeing the compassion etc of humanity and the greed etc of humanity. We’re a true neutral ape: we might band together to eliminate a horrific disease or fix the ozone and we might genocide people groups or poison oceans.

Gibbous Moon, on this eve, on this night
Crosses high in the sky, in full sight.
Behold, there’s a star off to its side.
Oops, that’s not a star that you just eyed
That’s Jupiter. So bold, and so true.
Wave hello! ‘Cause you’re in its sky too.

In 2016, as clouds promised much needed rains in Tsavo, a pilot sighted a tiny elephant calf standing beside her collapsed mother.
With the support of her Keepers and foster parents, Kuishi (meaning ‘to live’) has grown into a confident and vibrant young elephant. swt.bio/kuishi #rescueversary

Let’s gear up for the fight against creationism in schools (Dover Part 2) except stupider and potentially without a rule in the favor of science!
Here we go again: Dogma is infiltrating America's public schools.

Show Image 3A-3: Francisco de Holando’s
The First Day of Creation
The story of Genesis starts in the beginning.
There was only darkness. Then the text says:
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there
was light.1
So, this book says first it was dark, and then it uses a famous phrase: let
there be light! Artists can use the idea of going from dark to light to spark
their imagination. This image shows how a painter named Francisco de
Holanda imagined it would look to go from dark to light. How does the artist
show dark and light? [Pause for students’ responses.]
Show Image 3A-4: Aoki Shigeru’s Let There
Be Light
Later on, the Book of Genesis starts to
describe the next steps of creation. Let’s read
some more of this story from the book of
Genesis:
And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let
dry ground appear.” And it was so. God called the dry ground “land,” and the
gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good. Then God said,
“Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land. .
.”2 Vegetation is another word for plants. What was created in this part of the
story? [Pause for students’ responses.]
Let’s look at this painting by Aoki Shigeru. What do you see related to what you
just heard about water and sky? [Pause for students’ responses and discuss]
Artists can interpret these words in different ways, using their own creativity.
There is not just one way to make art. We’ve seen two artists paint pictures
from this story of creation, and they have used different colors and made
paintings that did not look the same. How did we use our imaginations earlier
in the lesson? Were the pictures you imagined the same or different than your
classmates? [Pause for students’ responses.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ya43saw5vyvgqkkey63ialpy/bafkreiehwb3r6ptwnra63cggitkmg6aor3vh2kbmdjrvv3fxxows2wqikm@jpeg)
