I'm sure some Christians think this way, I wasn't one of them.
Before waking up, what I struggled with wasn't that atheists had an inner voice just like me, to discern right from wrong;
It was that I didn't understand why they were slaves to their consciences. It seemed reasonable to me that without objective morals, people could rape and murder as much as they want.
I'm now an atheist and now I rape and murder as much as I want (which is none).

Scientists discover ‘ballista spider’ that launches prey at 140x the force of gravity
How the fuck does evolution begin to explain the process of spiders various techniques.
Some of them make sense.
Trapdoor spiders.
Tarantula.
Huntsman.
Then you got spiders which position themselves on a branch above their target, and slip down a rope Mission Impossible style.
Other spiders curl up into a ball and let the wind carry them to safety if something goes wrong.
And now this shit.

Let's break this down further because the Garden of Eden is fucking weird.
So God has these two people he keeps as naked pets in a garden. He watches them every second of every day.
God tells these people "eat as much fruit as you want, but don't eat the fruit from that tree, or you'll die."
One day a snake tells Eve "God is lying to you, the fruit will make you smart; God wants you to be unquestioning and stupid."
So Eve eats, and realises she's part of some weird nudity cult where she was lied to and taught that the truth is dangerous.
She makes Adam eat and God, (who can see the future by the way) says "you failed my test, despite creating the conditions in which I knew would cause you to fail. Why couldn't you just have just accepted my lies and remained idiots? This is your fault"

I can accept metaphorical truths, but I'd argue that any resemblance of them is coincidental.
There is so much redundant or unnecessary nonsense in the bible, that some of it is bound to line up with some fundamental truth farther down the path of knowledge.
Obviously, whoever wrote genesis was not aware of evolution, and I'm not implying that you are proposing this insinuation as an explanation (it's just an example of what I mean).
Regardless of being unable to un-knowledge ourselves, one of the things I was pointing at was the absurdity of free-will as a concept.
God is supposedly omniscient, he knows the test will fail.
If you want to get metaphorical on that, you could probably spin it in some pretty weird ways.
Regardless, Christians cannot reconcile the literal claim that God is all-knowing from the notion of free-will.

Count your lucky stars you cannot hear LED's.
I can. My hearing is extremely sensitive.
I've gone through the effort to set up smart plugs for most of my devices, to turn off automatically, for no other reason than eliminating the buzz.

It's without a doubt the LED's themselves. Moving closer to the exact location of the LED confirms it.
For some cheap products, I've physically cut one side of the LED pin to shut it up, and the buzzing stops.
Though technically it could be the sound of a capacitor charging/discharging or the resistors, not exactly sure on the exact mechanism, but it's at the very least something on the LED circuit.

A double blind would mean no results are discovered lol.
A single blind test would be fine.
And yes, I've done this. I've turned away from a device, and my partner either toggled a switch powering thw device, or a switch which wasn't connected to anything.
Perfect accuracy.
Edit: I replied when i first woke up. I didn't read carefully.
Neat experiment idea but I don't have a tools for that lol.
If I ever do, I'll pin this message and reply to it :p

Fun fact: instead of going invisible, you can mark games as private.
They won't show up as recently played, on your profile, and other people won't see you're in-game, but at least you're not announcing to the world what you're doing.
Conversely, if you're annoyed by others, you can turn those notifications off.

Video: Pauline Hanson responds to Guardian journalist’s press club question with personal attack
"I need a yes or a no"
"I said what I said"
What a piece of shit, she has the gall to accuse the reporter of trashing her, yet she lies by obfuscation, and condescends to her.
And Hanson wonders why the reporter has a chip on her shoulder?

Isn't it strange how we discovered a lot more stars after inventing telescopes?
Obviously there was an unrelated increase in stars born at that exact time.
