#Testify Etymology

The brilliant communication expert Vinh Quang Giang (@askvinh) says: If you lose people when you talk, it’s because you’re not engaging them. 🗣️ The same applies in the courtroom when addressing a jury! Trial lawyers, if you’re losing your jurors’ attention, it often comes down to three key reasons: 1️⃣ Auditory engagement – Your tone and pacing. Are you keeping it dynamic? 2️⃣ Visual engagement – Your body language is just as important as your words. 3️⃣ Content – Is your argument compelling from start to finish? Are your opening and closing statements memorable? Master these areas to keep jurors focused, engaged, and connected to your case. What is your way to keep jurors focused?

The Lowest Form Of Evidence Neil deGrasse Tyson's assertion that eyewitness testimony constitutes "the lowest form of evidence" is not mere rhetorical flourish; it is a deliberate, epistemologically rigorous demarcation rooted in the philosophy and methodology of science. Tyson is invoking a hierarchy of evidentiary warrant that descends from the ideal of intersubjective, reproducible, instrument-mediated observation down to the irreducibly subjective and non-replicable. In this taxonomy (implicitly drawn from Carl Sagan, Marcello Truzzi, and the broader post-Popperian philosophy of science), the ranking runs roughly as follows.  I as a former practicing lawyer I completely understand where he's coming from Neil has repeatedly called eyewitness testimony "the lowest form of evidence" (a phrase he uses on podcasts, in lectures, and on shows like Star Talk). His intention isn't to say that eyewitnesses are useless or always lying; it's a strong, memorable way to highlight how unreliable human perception and memory actually are, especially in science and in courts of law. Here's what he's really driving at: 1. Science demands reproducible, objective evidenceIn science, the gold standard is data that anyone with the right tools can independently verify (measurements, photographs, recordings, controlled experiments). Eyewitness testimony fails this test because: It can't be reproduced on demand. It's filtered through a single human brain with all its biases, limitations, and distortions. Two honest eyewitnesses to the exact same event will often give contradictory accounts. Tyson likes to point out that if an alien spacecraft landed on the White House lawn and only one person saw it, science would not accept that as proof—regardless of how sincere the witness was. We'd demand photos, radar tracks, physical traces, multiple independent sensors, etc. That's why he ranks eyewitness accounts at the bottom of the evidentiary hierarchy in science. 2. Cognitive science and psychology back him upModern psychology has shown over and over that human memory is reconstructive, not a video recording. Classic findings Tyson often references: CONTINUED BELOW

Dynamic Equivalence: interested in for thought accuracy (EX: NLT) Formal Equivalence: interested in word for word accuracy (EX: ESV) - I made a post about this a while ago, but altogether, modern English translations are good. I personally recommended NLT for New Christian’s — NIV / CSB for Mature but still learning Christian’s — NASB, ICB, ESV and / or an Interlinear for Mature / Teaching level Christian’s. - And about the Dead Sea scrolls, those weren’t really the first pieces of ancient Semitic language texts — there was the Nash Papyrus, too! They also weren’t lost, just not relevant to the Christian worldview. It would be like adding a random cookie recipe in the middle of a chemistry book. Yes it’s chemistry, but it had nothing to do with THIS chemistry. Make sense? 🙂‍↕️ And yes, WE DO use those in textual criticism too. ☺️ let us not undermine the work by adding unnecessary obstacles for our brethren and sisters. We are all in this together!!!!!!

‼️NERDY PROF MOMENT ‼️ If you don’t want to listen to me talk, here is my main point: be immediately suspicious of people who try to make grand theological points based on the meanings of biblical words. They’re usually wrong because they don’t know how languages evolve over time. Edited to add: please excuse the editing errors I am healing from surgery so I get a pass right?
