Empirical Inquiry to Evolution – Our individual truth is based on our individual belief.  Our belief is based on our choices; we believe what we choose to believe.  In large part, our truth is what we choose to believe.  We choose our truth.  God gives us free will, freedom to choose, and THAT’S why freedom of choice is so precious; one of our most precious rights to be protected.  Even with Himself, God has given us the freedom to choose Him, or not.  Our relationship with Him, anyone else, any thing …is the truth of our choice.

Adjudication:  how do we define what, when are not sure of what is truth?

God and the theory of evolution are not equal in value and cannot share His Glory for His Universal

Creation.

Students must believe they have a personal role in creating, developing, and influencing their own futures.

Everything cannot be, and is not, true; or false…Will.

How do we encourage students who feel they do not have a life where they influence their own future and that of others?  Purpose!  They need us to assist them in discovering their life’s purpose.

New observations may, or not, affect and/or effect our current summaries.

I am not sure that I agree with, “…there is no such thing as objectivity; there is always shared subjectivity”.  I do agree with there being no summary that challenges all observations.

Is finite infinite?

Contextual relativity (Contextuality).

Truth is context (perspective) dependent.
