Elephant Repellent
A couple of days before I “go live” with the latest video, (Truth and Logic) I thought I’d see if anyone else has managed to keep elephants away from their gardens with black pepper? It seems to be working, we’ve never seen any elephants around so I’m not about to stop, but I have so far found very little science behind this important practice.
If you DO come across the “facts” I need to back up this practice, please let me know, it would be so useful to show my friends that what I believe is ‘backed by science’. The woolly thinking people who say there are no elephants to repel, just need to get with the program!
Of course, looking for “fact” to back a practice, or science to support existing thought, is no way to support rational thinking anymore than using “proof verses” from the Bible is any way to develop true faith.
Sadly, I so often see friendships gained and lost over such thinking!
Looking only at things that back our beliefs, practices, theories or alliances is no way to grow and can cause things that are just plain wrong to become very real to us in ways that are unhealthy.
