[@geetarnut]

If after watching this video of something, in essence,, from nothing (I mean that a seed in it's original state, is NOT at all the sunflower plant OR it's bloom!), and you don't see "intention", "pre-planning" AND,,, "bio-engineering" FACTUALLY at work ,, and deny a super creator/engineer,,,, well,,,,, you're deliberately ignorant! That is a fact!!! The great Maxwell Planck, father of quantum physics, and Nobel prize winner said: """All matter in existence (ALL matter!),,, is created by atoms, and ALL ATOMS BEING IDENTICAL, would need intentional, independent, and UNIQUE coersive force(s) applied to them, in order to create all the many different forms of matter that are on the periodic table of the elements!!!! And, if that's not incredible enough for you,, the matter/elements were even FURTHER manipulated, once again, INTENTIONALLY,,, to make even more miraculous things, such as these sunflowers,, that are actually LIVING MATTER, WHICH IS AN EVEN MORE BIZARRE AND UN-EXPLAINABLE PART OF THE ENTIRE STORY!!!! Engineering is totally evident, totally apparent in everything, ""ourselves in particular""! Who, what intentional force has been at work on and around the earth??? And why does it keep making all the absolute, factual/actual MIRACLES, such as human beings, and all of the fabulous living things, SUNFLOWERS BEING JUST ONE EXAMPLE,,, of billions of ""diversely independent"" creations???????? THIS,,, is why Einstein said: "I see GOOD in the details in life""!!! And so did Maxwell Planck, Copernicus, Gallileo, Newton, and no less than 100 other illustrious names in/from the sciences!!! I choose to be in their quarters!

[@vanessapierce231]

I was viewing the song Girassol today, which when translated means sunflower in Brazilian Portuguese because the sunflower gyrates y follows the sun. The band cuidade negra puts out a powerful punch of this song dedicated to a very special flower. Cuidade negra translated means black city but in Portuguese. It is reversed y the adjective follows the noun as in many Latin script languages. It has nutritional y healing properties as well. Farmers use it to enhance the soil y it also attracts many birds, bees, y other wild creatures to protect the various produce gardens. The Mexican culture uses this plant for medicinal purposes to relieve chest pains. The Cherokee tribe, to help with kidney problems. The Dakota tribe, to help with pulmonary. You'd have to be real ignorant or very proud y dumb to deny the existence of a divine Creator. Merci beaucoup for putting out such a time consuming video to educate the public. Your efforts are highly valued. Gott segne dich.

If I have a garden filled with beautiful flowers, how freely I can spend my time speaking with those fantastic flowers. 🍏 (Garden is the most reliable place where I can spend my time relaxing, where I can feel its pleasure, where I can erase my worries, where I can say goodbye to my sadness, and where I can expand my happiness). If I have a forest filled with natural sounds of the whispering old trees and the amazing sharp sounds of cute birds. 🍏 If I have a mountain where I can see its top, and the sun rising scenery.🍏 If I have a sea side where I can hear the sounds of the sea breeze and its waves. (When you are at the sea side, sea the waves and its natural beauty. Remember happiness comes with sea waves) 🍏 If I have a birds park where I can see varieties of birds with their beautiful feathers and their melodious singing. 🍏 If I have a zoological garden where I can see the types of different animals and their living styles. 🍏 If I can visit the entire earth to see the amazing places of beauty. 🍏 If I can have wings to fly up and down to get my utmost freedom. I wish I could expand my wings and fly up in the sky and discover new events .🍏 Then, I would certainly say that, 'I am in paradise '. 🍎🍏 Written by: Dawood ✍ On 10th of March 2022
