This is the knowledge of a standard 7 pupil in Malawi as taught by Kamuzu:
A bare landmass cools down and heats up quickly since the soil absorbs heat and releases it quicker. Other factors that affect the climate of a place are prevailing winds ocean currents and vegetation cover. So when we get to have hurricanes in USA and other areas, consider the quick heating and cooling due to bearing the landmass of vegetation and replacing it with the concrete jungle. Consider the ocean currents with winds laden with moisture, the speeds increased by the quick heating up of the land creating low pressure, consider the sudden quick cooling when the night comes. Just correct formula for formation of a hurricane. It's time the third world taught the first world how to replant vegetation. After all it is said the first shall be the last and the last shall be first.
This is knowledge of any Christian who reads the bible and understands that God created this world. If we start understanding this from Sunday school, it is indeed knowledge of a small child not a professor:
God created the sun, moon, and stars to separate times and seasons. There are commemorations in the bible that are prescribed by God and are dependent on the sun, moon, and stars. Eg, Easter, Moslems have Idi celebrated in October. In our calendars we have always known the dates the winter and summer solstice and the spring and autumn equinoxes. Suppose we look at the dates these celebrations occur. Atleast take a comparison of the periods between these celebrations and the periods between the summer, winter solstices and equinoxes, I am giving a hypothesis that these periods have not changed. But what has changed is our way of measuring time. That is why we find that rains come very earlier or later than we expect them. For our perception of times and seasons have changed.
So when the first world thinks itself wise and forgets God, it finds itself with life problems for life is only given by God and it is God who can understand it better that we ever can. And if we ever thought we were wiser by denying God, to find knowledge, God can give the public encryption key to even small children who acknowledge him, to unlock this already existing knowledge to shame the wise who have prided in their own ignorance in denying God.
When I see the likes of Bingu Wa Mutharika, William Kamkwamba, being wow!ed world over for this same knowledge we malawians have always known and think its not worth the merited awards, its nothing else but that the world does not know what we malawians always known. For the knowledge we have, was given to us all malawians free of charge by Kamuzu. We still have this knowledge among us and its still vast but we are kept down by our inferiority complex. This why our flag today carries a bright full sun. For the world is dark indeed in ignorance.
Aim High.
