Why is it that a man whose name sounds like some vulgar toilet utensil is getting the world so upset? He is merely a humble hacker/journalist with the potential to verify what most people already know. Who's afraid of a little blackmail? This man is a schmuck. He said himself that he is a "combative person" with ties to a cult from an early age. The mental and emotional scarring that traumatizing childhood experiences with this cult left upon him have caused him to have an axe to grind with the world. Somebody get me some tissues. N. Korea . China wants the US to take the initiative and invade North Korea, because that is how China behaves. They don't want to take a hit from N. Korea (even though they could win). Years of having a psychotic dictator like Mao has taught them to revert to older Confucian values of patience and saving. They complement the adventuresome US very well, and the world empire of Chimerica will thrive if it can hold together. As for this &qu

Warning: this might sound more wacky than it is. Nature is rife with analogies. Every where you look you can see them: repeating patterns which echo in the millions, the hand of God at work. Trees are akin to families, fractals are akin to trees, atoms are akin to the solar system, community breeds more community, unity in diversity gives rise to an advantageous symbiosis. Piranhas rip and tear each other to pieces like a Japanese business group. Everyone recognizes the analogies of nature to human nature and thought, it is found in millions of proverbs and used as a strong tool in magical thinking of practitioners of animism and the occult. This makes perfect sense, since man is made in the image of God, and God is order, peace, and consistency. I feel that there is a great fallacy that we all draw in relation to the creations of mankind. Everywhere you look you see manmade things: we have garnered objects of nature to do our bidding and make our lives easier. Are these things ev

Watched inception. Here are the ideas that were locked in my mind: We start out like Descartes: I think therefore I am. I am whom? Am I who I want me to be? A world focused completely on me is my own dream. Who's to tell me it's not? I think this, and then take a step back and realize that things don't go as I want them to. This is either because: 1- I have some subconscious urge to put myself through trouble and therefore conjure it up. or 2- The world is not my dream. My mind pays no great attention to intricate detail. There is more to anyone's spirit and personality in terms of depth than I would originally think. The more deep into the dreamworld a life or a story is, the more confined it is, the less the detail. I corrupt the world by making it my own because my mind is extremely limited. Everything in my own dreams is simply a projection, and a lifeless bland projection. I can never meet the standard of all the intricacies of reality. Option 2: the world is a

Human minds behave much like antennas: they receive signals generated from somewhere. We call these signals ethos/zeitgeist/worldview/memes. We have many terms to connote how ideas are spread throughout societies, social groups, families, etc. In a way, these are like the candles of Hinduism (which sees souls and identities as small passing and changing fires). An idea, or what could be called a "spirit" (like the spirit of Elijah, that's the spirit, the spirit of Christmas) passes from one person to another. If you go to a completely foreign environment you will find that it is necessary to radically change your antenna to get a linguistic, a psychological, a sociological, and a spiritual grasp of how things are around you (these are all realms of the mind). We can surmise how people think to a small extent by their language, but even more so by an unconscious recognition of patterns in how lives are lived. Societies have a distinct spirit, groups of all kinds have a dis

"The folly of God is greater than the wisdom of this world." I have been so stupid. We live in a bastion of ignorance, here at the center of the world. Our nation is blinded to the reality of a spiritual world. To illustrate my point, lets think of the idea of a tactless, socially clumsy and awkward homeschooler entering the business world. All this young fool knows is what he has been taught in his cloistered world, and is completely unaware of the deceptiveness of schmoozing business associates. Their smiles and compliments all work wonders on him, manipulating his god given talent and hard work by making him to believe that he is greatly appreciated. This young man is me five years ago. Compare that young man with the average everyday American: we are incredibly sheltered and made to believe (with faulty logic) that the world is under the control of human beings who are merely what we believe them to be: a higher form of ape. We only see biology and phys

These are “cover judging” natural tendencies, and you cannot tell so much about a person by how they look so much as you can tell how they are perceived by others at first glance and therefore might react to such a stereotyping of themselves. You can often tell how they are used to being judged by their permanent appearance. In speaking to a per

This is probably more scientific than things which I normally post, but borders on the Metaphysical. Freud explained that we have different identities and different drives. Unlike animals, humans are immensely nuanced and subtle in their paradoxical "God-like" qualities. Here is a list of these drives and how they correspond, with parallels between the cocaine-induced theories of Freud and Scripture (I realize that this will be controversial across the board): Three Identities: 1. Id, 2. Ego, 3. Superego Impulses: 1. Death (extreme pleasure) drive, 2. Life (avoidance of extreme pleasure, seeking to work for money, build a society, language) drive, 3. Unconscious (seeking extreme displeasure for the sake of endurance) drive. Biblical parallels: 1. Id: Animal instinct (procreation, murder), short-term focus 2. Ego: Humanity- Eating of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and evil, which separated us from animals and made us "like God." (seeking what is good for the sake

I am unsure what to think. I feel like I dragged a corpse out of the grave and now it has stunk up my home. Grabbed a Religious Science book from Barnes and Noble and thought it said Jesus was God, but that was merely an ensnaring titular coincidence. The book is about our oneness with God. Christ is the husband of the church, do the two become one? If Jesus is God, does that mean that we are to join in the personhood of God? Regardless of the answer to this question, which is likely beyond us, the motive of the book is queer and it sees Jesus as only one manifestation of “the Christ” of which we can be another. It quotes him selectively, avoiding references to his substitutionary atonement. It highlights the times where he bestows power on his followers, and that betrays the motive of the whole book: power. It is why I picked it up and it is what I crave too often. Power of this sort is beyond what I can understand, and it is playing with fire. True and lasting power is found only in

"50 Americans killed, and some minor collateral damage." A common American news flash. This is cause for tragedy, but for the wrong reason. what you don't know is that the collateral damage is actually a few hundred Afghani civilians who were needlessly exterminated. But ingrained into the minds of the people of our glorious nation is the idea that somehow an American life is worth more than a non-American life. Sure, no one would state that outright, but the fact that a few Americans dying is a tragedy while thousands starving to death every day thousands enslaved into child sex labor every day thousands of babies aborted every day is somehow no problem, no weight whatsoever on our minds. Do you think that is how God sees people? Does he see some as American lives and others as less worthy of life? Absolutely not. So if you are merely trying to escape the pain that would ensue if you were to consider that foreigners are also humans or if you are merely a victim of our me

I want to build my brain up to the maximum extent and then pour it out on this blog before I die. The following topics will be covered in this blog: Anthropology Genetics Linguistics History Computer Science Philosophy Theology Psychology Metaphysics Literature English Religion Science Mathematics Music Poetry and anything else I can understand, read, write, and theorize about, which is most anything. All of this will be tied together by a common pattern: the scandalous and radical truth of the triumph of good over evil. The dependency of non-existence on existence, the obvious generativity of all that flows from IAM as proven on the cross. Here, at bird's eye view, at wisdom and fear of the Lord, all things make perfect sense. -Qohelet
