Just saw this. So interesting. Kids who come from religious backgrounds, much happier now than kids who don't.

And I'm not saying that to be triumphalistic or something. Go, well, you know, you're a Christian. You're right. No, Jonathan Haidt, who's an atheist. Yeah. writes about this. And he said this has always been true a little bit. There's a little bit of a gap back in the day. but once we hit 2012 and the proliferation of smartphones, it's taken off.

Like, much happening. of a gap back in the day, but once we hit 2012 and the proliferation of smartphones, it's taken off.

Like, much happier. Not necessarily happy, happy, but the gap is massive. And he says it's like from unfettered access to iPads and screens and iPhones. Like the more unfettered access you have, the less happy you are.

We know this.

And so we're saying kids who have parents who are checking in on them that got youth groups

or contacts and community, something, anything is going to help immensely.

Just a gentle reminder here,

Jesus said you don't have because you don't ask.

And there may be something in your life that, like, it's a big deal,

but you've never actually asked God to help you with it,

or to help you go through it,

or to encourage you in the midst of it or something like,

why not?

Ask him.

It's for the podcast.

I want to talk about this on the radio.

Okay.

People might get upset, not hear it entirely.

Yes.

Which is just kind of the point, but they found the arc again.

Of all the things that I thought that you were about to say, I did not know we were going to see. I was again in the Anatolian Mountains again. Okay, again. They found it when I was a kid. I think actually before I was a kid, then they found it a few times when I was a kid. Sure. And they found it several times since then. Of course. Now they found it again. Okay. Well. It's like a running gag. Yeah, people get excited about it and I'm sorry, but it doesn't, it's not the arc, number one. And Wesley Huff, the, he's a scholar and he's been on different shows and stuff, and stuff like folks this is not it's not where it's at yeah and it's true because where did they say they found it in like turkey oh okay yep that's where they found it before a few times yeah i said to myself, I bet you it's in Turkey.
