​@@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus1God is also against forcing religion, the thing you're doing, because it goes against the free will he's given us. I'm not that well versed in Christianity so correct me if I'm wrong but God doesn't force religion, so why should you? If your intent isn't to push religion on people on KZfaq who are just minding their own business, then it's to educate them. But why? Surely, someone who's actually interested in Christianity, or someone who is Christian, already knows this stuff. And the people who don't... Well, they probably don't feel the need to learn about Chritianity, and that's fine. Christianity is about being kind and accepting other people's beliefs. So, from me as an Atheist to you as a Christian: We may not see eye to eye but one thing's for certain, forcing people to listen to your preachings is just going to deter them from actually listening

Found one once on a trip with my family out bush. He was much bigger than the lad in this video, but he was just as chill and easy going. Cause they only eat ants, their metabolism is really slow, and they don't have much aggression at all and rely mainly on their spikes and camouflage to deter potential predators.

I grew up in the Pilbara. I used to catch them on way to school and hide them in my desk when i was 8yrs old. They're so cute. There's actually a couple different varieties, the yellow ones were a bit harder to find, there's also more red coloured ones. Some were without the bump on the back of the neck They are so chill and make great pets.. I remember a friend and I used to play "hungry hippo" and sit them both on an ant trail and see who's could eat the most on 60 seconds on my mates Casino calculator watch😂 Also reminds me of the time we had to run for our lives when we got chased by a huge Bungarra (big monitor lizard). Come to think of it, I'm surprised I'm alive.. A few friends died back then, one stood on a stone fish where we used to swim. the same place I used to pick up blue ringed octopus..🤦 also the same place my step dad stood on a sting ray and got speared through the ankle, was the only time I ever saw him cry.. you knew it was time to stop swimming when you saw the shark fins coming in. My neighbour died picking up a hose and got bit on the neck by a King Brown.. I remember a few ppl got taken out by Kingys. As a kid running bare foot through the spinifex grass chasing all sorts.. thought it was normal 😅
