Pumpkin Picking

On Sunday afternoon we trekked up to Milky Way Farm to pick a pumpkin for our Halloween needs.

Milky Way Farm is just up route 113 from the house, on the other side of 100. The farm is home to many dairy cows that provide milk to Land-O-Lakes. It is a working milk farm. In the fall, they offer pick-your-own pumpkins from the large patch behind the milk barn.

Mission To Mars

Valerie over at spoken-for has written a bit about the movie Mission to Mars, which I agree was complete trash. But she talks about the origins of the universe and stuff, and in that I think we have a difference that needs to be addressed, not necessarily directly to her but in general. (So, Valerie, if you happen upon this, I’m not “calling you out”, I was just inspired to write this after reading your post.)

I don’t understand why people think that science and religion are mutually excusive. It’s always creationism versus evolution. Why can’t we have God and evolution? I think it’s perfectly reasonable to use the possibility of a supreme being to fill in for the answers that science simply doesn’t have.
