Astounding Mind - Nikola Tesla



Take the time to find out about Tesla. He is the genius some say invented the twentieth century. Everyday you benefit from his inventions, yet relatively few have heard of him. One thing for sure...you'll never think of Edison the same.

Dave Hunt's 1918 Invention

 Yes! This is the same Dave Hunt who wrote, "What Love is This?"( His reply to the 5 Points of Calvinism.) During our research on Evangelical Inventions of the Past we uncovered this contraption that claimed to give instant Arminian apologetical responses to any Calvinistic question that might pop up during a Bible study, preaching session or casual conversation. This device was first sold at Dave Hunt's John 3:16 conference and pot-luck supper in Misconstrue, Washington and was hailed by Arminians everywhere as the "single most sure-fire anti-Calvinist super weapon thingy that ever was." Hunt had to discontinue it's use after several participants became Calvinists anyway. 

Above is a photo taken in 1919 just before a church service where the pastor was going to read one of C.H. Spurgeon's unedited sermons. These are the deacons of the First Free Will Church of the Pines. The pastor was promptly fired after he closed the reading with an "Amen".

Visiting Relatives in the Past

Corky and I time-traveled to visit some of his relatives in Clinton, Ohio. Found out that Grampa Velveeta was the inventor of the clip-on tie. (actually a bow tie - which is fixed to the front of the shirt collar by a metal clip. Alternately, the tie may have a band around the neck fastened with a hook and eye.) It was great fun and the food was amazing!

Science and Invention

Science can be a cruel mistress.
Although, sometimes we all benefit from scientific breakthroughs!
Hmmmm....complete with vegetables and stuffing!

Fan Photo from Ike Lopez

Longtime fan, Ike Lopez, discovered this ad in an ancient issue of The Saturday Evening Post-Millennialist he found in an abandoned bounce castle. He sent this photo to me with a small note asking for twenty dollars and a bag of pork rinds. I am only too happy to send financial aid to those who take the time to find evidence of Cotton Adams' amazing inventions or creations. My research is limited to his journals. His soft drink formula has been lost, but Calvinistic "formula" for preaching the Word is still with us to this day! (note to Ike: I taped the twenty to a postcard and sent it your way this morning. The bag of rinds should arrive at your house in a few days. Thanks again.)
