Chalking up a win: Richard Attieh, producer of the doco Written in Chalk about Arthur Stace, the Eternity man who chalked the one-word sermon over half a million times, reports the movie got a good reception at the Art and Place international street art conference in Saarbrucken, Germany.

Ark-eology: The top “most read story in the Jerusalem post this week was “US team plans first dig at Mount Ararat’s ship-shaped hill” The AI-written story beginss “A California research collective known as Noah’s Ark Scan says it will begin the first controlled excavation of the Durupınar Site on Mount Ararat’s southern flank once a preservation framework is in place with local universities.
“’After securing additional information in cooperation with local universities in Turkey, we will establish a site-preservation plan and confirm whether the structures discovered through radar scans are artificial or natural,’ the team told the Korean outlet FN News.
“Ground-penetrating radar carried out by the group has revealed what members describe as ‘a rectangular structure’ lying several metres below the surface. The anomalous shape sits inside a flat, oval hill some 160 metres long—almost exactly the length assigned to Noah’s Ark in Genesis.”
Obadiah is not beeting his faith on this one.
