Monday Bullets: Surprise vinyl siding

Facebook
• I have to admit I am enjoying DAZN, which is online, much more, as of this last weekend, streaming from their wesbite and then connecting DAZN online to one of my televisions, at a time, through HDMI 2, Input.

• At first, I used Google Chrome for DAZN, my default browser which works well with Google/Blogger websites. However, Google Chrome was very 'jerky' with streaming. I very briefly chatted online with a DAZN technician that suggested I update Google Chrome, but there was nothing to update. I tried Microsoft Edge (also already updated) and it runs DAZN near perfectly. The picture is generally as clear as from television alone, in my opinion.

• This is $20 Canadian a month, well-spent...more so now.

•  Proverbs 12: 10 English Standard Version

Whoever is righteous has regard for the life of his beast, but the mercy of the wicked is cruel.

This noted from a sermon at church, this last Sunday morning...

•  In basic agreement with the sermon from a guest pastor, animal and plant life should be respected and treated well within God's creation. This is reasonable, even as admittedly within the Earth's ecology, as an aspect, some animals and plants are used for human food and for the production of human food and drink.

•  The pastor noted that recently, (paraphrased) some critics have even complained that plant life is often mistreated when consumed by human beings for food. So, another source of food, not animal or plant, needs to be sought by humanity, claim some critics.

•  But, biblically and theologically, the ecology, was created for God, and food and drink for humanity was intended. The ecology should not be abused by humanity though, but of course in the fallen realm we presently exist in (Genesis 3, Romans), it often is...

• Human love and concern for God's creation should be consistent. It often is not from people of various worldviews.

• Biblical Christians should love others in the Church (Gospel of John 13, 15, John), and should love one's neighbour as self (Matthew 22, Mark 12,  Luke 10), in other words, all of humanity.

•  It is my view that a consistent worldview, human love and care, should include conceived human beings as in the zygote, embryo, and fetus. I am reasonably certain holding to this theologically and philosophically, as this is the initial human development; even without knowing exactly when the human soul/spirit exists. It is quite possibly and reasonably at conception.

•  Even if not, as biblically human beings are made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1: 26-27) the unborn should be treated as fully human.

•  From a secular perspective, human beings are the most advanced beings, on Earth, in regard to civilization; termination on demand of the unborn, is not ethically and morally a reasonable premise.
