First, where is it biblical that people would get dumber? Nice to see some kind of reference.

Second, you’d never know we’re getting dumber by all the (dumb) older people marveling at how “kids can do stuff on computers”.

Yeah, using a computer means you’re smart. Uh huh.

I tire of that stupid assessment, and I hear it all the time, including by some too close to me. But what can you expect from liberals.

I discovered a book not but a couple of years ago called "Handy Farm Devices and How to Make Them". I was looking on Amazon for similar books because this one was so cool.

Here's the "dumber" part - people were giving this book bad reviews because it "didn't show you how to make them". Someone else rightly commented that the people at the time the book was written, 3 generations ago, could generally look at the pictures of the devices and figure out quickly how to make them, or even improve on them.
