because the babylonians did not invent the angle at all.es, the babylonians had t 0-degree -- 90-degree angles. if they didn't get those exactly right, off with your head, you know? the zero was made to absolutely awe and impress and overwhelm rival kings and make everybody want to come to babylon, for god's sakes, and view babylon as everything good in the world. and if it fell down because your 90-degree angle wasn't right, it was going to make your king a laughingstock, and he would not be kind to you. so, yes, they managed to make 90-degree angles, be i they didn't -- but they didn't even have a special word for a right angle. so you have to go back and rethink from scratch. so the best way to do science is to go back and imagine what it's like not to have any of these concepts concepts and what it's like to be looking at the world around you. look, i kept trying to find out what the ecliptic was. so i -- every week i run a meeting, and my friend don davis appears in the meeting, and he's the world's leading space artists. so if anyone

the babylonian. the medes and the persians. and the greeks and the romans. all gentiles. dealing with gentiles, then it stands to reason that we're not going to use the name of god that israel claimed which was jehovah. but we're going to use the term the most high because that's what the gentiles refer to him. here it is. daniel chapter 4 starting at verse 1. now this is the way you have to study the scriptures. "nebuchadnezzar the babylonian king (a gentile) unto all the people nations and languages that dwell in all the earth." that is the then known world. "peace be multiplied to you. i thought it good to show the signs and wonders that the high god" underline that. that's what nebuchadnezzar referred to him. he didn't call him jehovah. he called him the most high god. alright, let's go to another verse. they're scattered throughout the chapter. they're scattered throughout daniel. but the next one i can see quickly is in verse 17. still in daniel 4 verse 17. you all got it? "this matter is by the decree of the watchers and the demand by the word of the holy ones; to

the babylonians had taken the israelites into captivity.member, the whole story of daniel in the old testament-- they suffered under the captivity. they were not in their homeland, israel. and now the bible tells us that the israelites have returned and they're home, and they need a new prophet. so god calls malachi into his office, and he says, "malachi, i want you to be the prophet for the israelites. and here's what you need to do: you need to go get them in shape because they're already starting back the way they were before i punished them the first time." and when you read the chapters in the book of malachi-- and you can do it on your own-- you realize that malachi did not have a good assignment. i mean, if god had said that to me, i would have asked if i could pray about it, or could i get a new opportunity? malachi had to go to these stiff-necked people and challenge them to get their act together. i mean, they had been punished for 70 years, and they still didn't get it. so the words of malachi are strong. and one of the evidences
