My Trophy Beloved asked me to post this for her.
This is a science fair for homeschooled kids–the one my children will not be attending. The rules state you have to use a verse of scripture when developing your project, and my boys were just full of ideas.
Here are some they came up with:
1. The verse about how the sons (pl.) of God slept with the daughters of men, creating giants.
The boys thought DNA testing would be interesting to see how many grandchildren God has.
2. “With their own hands compassionate women have cooked their own children, who became their food when my people were destroyed.“
The guys think that it would take an awful lot of babies to keep an adult well-nourished. The project would need to demonstrate the number of calories in a well-fed baby, as well as a malnourished one.
3. The verse which says “Blessed shall he be who takes your little ones and dashes them against the rock!“
The boys thought this would make a great physics project, calculating the momentum, force, height etc. needed to dash a baby’s head against the rock and inflicting serious damage.
I guess we’ll be forgoing this science fair. Although good scientific method is
most likely nonexistent, I am guessing there will be no lack of pitchforks, torches, or peasants at this do.
