i'm used to carrying bear spray. the whole avoidance thing. although i've often wondered...... could i just say 'hey buddy. need a dehydrated ziplock of turkey dinner? and some ear scrutchie scutchies?' give him a peck on the nose and send him on his way? or maybe develop a deeper relationship? small steps. lunch? then a ball game? 18 at a real easy course? listen to his bullshit on the 19'th about how he almost broke 100...... nah. bears would be cooler than that. merlin will be a harder catch.
Fauci said he is “science”, when I saw that clip it cleared it all up for me as Todd said he’s the self-proclaimed Pope of science. I love that statement as it has the absolute correct meaning, SCIENCE is a religion, It’s dogma, it’s unaccepting of challenge, it condemns those that attempt to challenge it. It throws them into the lake and sees if she floats, if so she’s a witch and they kill her, and if she drowns she wasn’t one, all works out in the end at least you know, right? Oops, I’m getting things mixed up. Sorry, science is knowledge.... NOT! It’s a religion, hail Pope Fauci (meaning “Jaws” in Italian by the way, how fitting!)
It is funny to me how, when exasperated, these people will blurt out stuff that completely exposes them. It is really only shrews that see this, as the sheep just nod and say, "that makes sense..." Which is, of course, the most chilling part of all of this. Fauci's blurting out that he IS science was such a revealing proclamation...but few people loping around in the pasture caught it.
Your post resurfaced two high school memories, totally opposite to each other : in 8th grade I was introduced to atoms and the void between them and the electrons that spin around them, implying that matter is mostly made of void (I still haven’t recovered from this one !!); and then hitting my hard wood desk in 12th grade, arguing with my philosophy teacher who tells me everything is an illusion... I now listen to NDE testimonies and quantum physicists in the hope to find a path to overcome the despair from what the NWO plans have for us. Trying to fold multiple dimensions into my constricted present... and avoid despair. What is reality ? What is progress ? Shakespeare could have come up with a good one on this (or maybe he did?)....
Oh the joy of trying to figure it out, isn’t it fun. When a magnet is ridiculously strong the distance it affects becomes smaller, so when you hit the desk with your hand that’s magnetic repulsion. The material it’s repulsing, your hand are like two north poles pushed together. Even if you break the material, the material won’t go back together because the magnetic bonds are broken. Everything is a variant of magnetism on a scale of super magnetic to super dielectric (just a lots magnetic state). Anyways long topic, Nikola Tesla, Maxwell, Heavyside, figured this out more than a century ago. The kicker of course is, it’s all illusionary, truly, but not to you in your universe which is only for you to see as your frequency needs to be in sympathetic resonance to all materials otherwise it wouldn’t be there for you to interact with.
The "it is all an illusion" is always a difficult concept to grok. One of the primary tenets of reality is that it must be consensual. Meaning, everyone else is creating the SAME illusion. If not, then the person "seeing" something no one else sees is psychotic and mentally ill. (Neither of these statements is accurate.)
I am not going to attempt to get into this here as it would drive everyone crazy, including myself. But reality is not consensual in the way we define consensus...primarily because "individual" human beings are illusory as well. Therefore there is only a consensus of ONE...we are all ONE...BUT...EACH individual being has a unique vision (a paradox of course)...much like the dots of light projected on the ceiling from a light bulb covered in black paper with holes punched in it. These dots "appear" to be individual light sources, when in fact, the light source is singular...the light bulb under the paper. But each individual dot of light on the ceiling does have a unique spot, a unique "view" and "experience." This analogy does not, by any means, explain any of this thoroughly. See? Are you crazy yet? I'll stop there.
Arcturian says the same thing I say here only a bit differently...it is ineffable, and it is meant to remain a mystery in its details for good reason.
Science works extremely well – as it always has – as a tool. It’s a process or discipline to rigorously test our theories about how the physical world works against the observed world.
But science – by definition – can’t provide a philosophy or worldview, contrary to the assertions of expansive egoists like Richard Dawkins.
Dmitri Orlov coined the term “Technosphere” for the mechanistic philosophy of world and life which dominates us lately and his meditations on it are well worth reading.
In the golden days of science, practitioners would have routinely been religious, so the scientific method wasn’t practiced in a moral vacuum. Darwin for example would never have intended that the process of natural selection explained the evolution of the universe from end-to-end, but as atheism has itself become a religion its disciples try to use the theory as a sledgehammer on and for everything.
Throw in the corruption of scientific institutions by money (eg institution funding) and politics (eg wokeism) and poor science never stood a chance.
As well as Orlov above, I thoroughly recommend the musings of John Michael Greer at ecosophia.net on the interplay between the rational/scientific world and the irrational/magical world.
Our non-biological side is the source of our creativity, the font of all artmaking, and where our sense of awe, curiosity, worship and gratitude arises from. Our spiritual creative essence is the one tyrant's fear as they experiment in manipulating us thru their psyop and medical experiments but that they ultimately will not completely control because we are unpredictable and at essence, spiritual beings created for God. Our character, virtue, devotion, love, and their opposites, hate jealousy, lust for power are the qualities that define us as human beings and the tyrant's urgency for transhumanism is to maximize control over others.
It shows in my opinion that even despite their efforts to extinguish all these traits from the beginning through endless indoctrination and a competitive environment to gather as many dollars or shall I say digits on a screen or paper with numbers on it backed by air, and a military to induce perceived value and protect a manufactured mindset of scarcity, that there isn’t enough to go around. Despite all this, these traits you speak of are still around today. Must really piss them off that they can’t get humanity to drop those things that make them human. I guess that’s why they’re going the synthetic human 2.0 route now in hopes that that might do it.
I have two issues I would like to advance here if I may. One is the transhumanism agenda that is rapidly being advancing in the world now. I understand the procedures that enable the disabled to function better, but to enhance every aspect of human experience just for the sake of making people more robotic is absurd. The talk about making a computer to hold the consciousness of a person who has died is a philosophy that refuses to believe that a human soul only inhabits a body as a single "ego" consciousness for a limited time and then lives on eternally in soul essence is beyond most peoples' ability to understand. There is SO MUCH metaphysical information in the cosmos that scientists are completely ignorant about that it would make our current scientific knowledge juvenile in comparison It is just pathetic. It is sad. And it is very, very dangerous. Human ego has no wisdom or maturity about being cautious about their "magnificent" accomplishments.
My second subject is very esoteric for most people who have not researched expanded consciousness or dimensional reality. There is a young man on the scene the past few years who literally remembers the entire journey of his soul for eons. He doesn't claim to understand it - he just remembers it. His interviews can be found on Youtube, but he teaches multidimensional geometry in a series on Gaia.com. He is humble and very pleasant. I recommend just trying to listen to a few to open your mind to far greater awareness of the building blocks of the cosmos. Of course it is weird, but things you don't know about are always weird until you understand them. The future of humanity doesn't HAVE to be totally ruled by scientists.
This issue of transhumanism is really at the root of just about everything that is going on these days. I was not really aware of this when I first jumped on the shrew wagon, but now it is abundantly clear...and it has been going on for quite some time.
Read Patrick Wood's amazing book "The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism."
I have not really written much directly addressing this, but plan to in the future (an upcoming article titled "Analog to Digital: Subjective to Objective: Human to Machine" is a start...be on the lookout for it.
Agree 100% with your line "I understand the procedures that enable the disabled to function better, but to enhance every aspect of human experience just for the sake of making people more robotic is absurd." Nearly everything happening today is encased in a Trojan horse in order to make it palatable to the sheep public. It is again astounding how easily this stuff is swallowed...and I must admit I was once a sheep.
I also like your comment about the metaphysical stuff being shoved aside by materialist science that in comparison is "juvenile"...great stuff here, thank you!!
I will check out the guy that "remembers" his entire journey...very interesting.
Sorry I didn't include his name - Matias de Stefano - from Argentina. At first he has trouble with English, but when you hear his knowledge of Latin and Greek and EGYPTIAN, it is a tad amazing.

What we have is fake materialism, bolstered with superstitions such as the big bang theory, quantum theory, and other unproven assumptions. It's a variation of religious dogma, it is scientism.
Here's a video on the insanity of particle physics done by a physicist.
I used to feel depressed that the system is broken and that it would take a lot of work to set things straight.
These days I see that the scientific method is baked in, even to the vaccine safety signals - a month after launch they should have been pulled on numbers alone!
The system is designed well. The problem is that we have lying psychopaths in charge of those systems who don't follow what the systems were designed to do.
If the majority finally realize that science is not the problem, but the management of such science is corrupted, perhaps we can have a peaceful revolution where the rules are followed uniformly instead of this pick and choose bullshit that happens today.
While "science" at its essence, the investigation of the natural realm, is a noble pursuit, science, like religion, medicine, academia, and most institutions, has become weaponized against the people as a vector of exploitation, psychological operations, oppression and control. Most cannot grasp their peril, because they have invested their entire being into "belief" in the aforementioned "systems", and thus they are braiding the rope to hang themselves. Until they can detach, most can't, their detriment will continue at the hands of the system they trust. Public school trained them well.
No. I got it from Joyce Riley, rest her soul. She was out front of this 25 years ago. Some of her old shows may be available online somewhere. A real woman she was.
Where have our Godly scientists gone; those who proved the power of prayer to influence the outcomes of their surgeries? Those who believed that God worked through them as instruments of their minds, blessed with the intelligence and understanding of God’s role in their calling.
I feel I was the last generation in my own family to be brought up with any spiritual education; Sunday school, worship services, prayer and Bible study, singing in a church choir to honor God. We have denied this undying generations of most children with the knowledge and embracing of their own souls and the spirit of God in their lives. We have, as a society, turned our backs on God in our quest to obtain more material things, thinking we are giving our future generations better lives, with fewer struggles than we and our parents and grandparents experienced. Many today have useless educations at great expense to us and them, and do not even know themselves as children of God. I know my own (step-children) think nothing of God or would consider spiritual intervention as a part of theirs or their own children’s lives. I imagine they would roll their eyes at the mention of taking their children to Sunday School or reading Bible stories to them. My daughter, due to her husband’s, in name only Italian/Catholicism, and as requested by his parents, had their son baptized in a church they’ve otherwise never entered before or since. I attended a shallow service, a check-that-square event to please the family followed by a more important lunch celebration. The priest who didn’t even know them performed the perfunctory service as if he actually provided them something of value. It was merely a continued tradition of “the family” but there was no deep-felt feeling of the nature of the experience. I observed it carried out almost with awkward embarrassment and a merely a feeling of duty to “the old folks” by the parents of the baby.
We, who know better, have failed ourselves and future generations. We have allowed God to dissolve into the background of our own lives in favor of political correctness of acceptance with our children and the woke-sponsored separation of church and state institutions demand and yet we wonder what’s wrong with our world and humanity. We bow to the media gospel, the increasingly inaccurate and ever-modified “science”, touted as truth which changes to suit the whims of politicians on both sides of the aisle (actually the same). We’re already victims of AI-generated propaganda served up by both sides; the same message, simply delivered in our preferred line of thinking, but with the same result. We have voluntarily given up our souls, our critical thinking, our inner, spiritual compass that connects us with God. Instead we have chosen to follow the golden idols of the moment, offering us immediate, convenient gratification and perceived acceptance within our current families and culture. We are lost and have forgotten who we are, forgotten the true meaning of our humanity as we justify the usefulness or irrelevance of others of our species, abusing and murdering God’s children and killing off our elders as they no longer serve a purpose as told to us by the new gods of science and government; they are useless eaters, no longer contributing to our shallow world of “thing acquisition” but simply wasting our precious resources. The population of human beings is a threat to the planet of things. There’s not enough to go around. We are basically removing those who impart the necessary soul impetus in us that we so desperately need to remind us of the reality of our human essence; newborn babies to instill joy at the magnificence of God’s creation, and the wisdom of our elders who have experienced all that life gives us and how we as spiritual beings need our faith and spirituality to coexist and thrive in this world of light and dark forces. We’ve been programmed to believe these human influences are no longer necessary; they are outdated and meaningless for our evolution as sentient, spiritual beings. We’ve replaced our spiritual intelligence with artificial intelligence(quite the oxymoron). We have basically spit in the face of God, our creator. It will not end well for his greatest creation.
Wow!!! This is BEAUTIFUL!!! You are in perfect alignment with everything I write about and believe. I have always been a very spiritual person, and certainly believe in God, or a higher "power"...I have not been much of a fan of "congregational religion"...more of a student of mystical Christianity, and other "religions"...but am beginning to see a profound purpose in the "congregational" version of "the word"...if it is all that people have time for, it is enough. Church, Bible, teachings of Jesus, etc. What more do you need?
I am studying the potentially more accurate accounts of women from history who’ve been vilified by the Catholic Church through altered historical records, throughout the centuries, beginning with Mary Magdalene. What I’m learning has encouraged me to return to my faith after ignoring it for many years. And I believe this new understanding of women’s vital roles in sharing Jesus’ Way as he instructed his apostles, Mary being his most beloved, to start his new church has a place in humanity’s sad story today. Women were created as equals to men in the sight of God, who created both in His image. He never intended for them to be vilified as the lesser, weaker, evil gender they’ve been portrayed as by the church throughout history, and this gives me hope that we can rekindle a desire for people to return to or discover their spirituality and their connection to their creator. I believe that most, if not all, our societal ills can be traced back to and laid at the feet of the men of history who held onto power by manipulating women and history to fit their need for control. And what a mess they’ve made in the blood lust to control everything.
Imagine how our world might be today if we all were allowed to follow Christ’s example from the Book of Love and men and women shared roles of teaching His Way to all those past generations. How different might society be? How happy and fulfilled might all of humanity be today? How difficult might it be for evil to wield its ugliness upon humanity? A humanity that was created to know and live it’s divine connection with God? That isn’t always looking for the fix to fill the empty void of their aimless lives because they don’t know who they truly are? Disconnected from their souls, wandering the earth. A humanity that knows the love of God and their fellow man. Just as the church of old could not allow Christ to show the people that they had no need for an intermediary between them and their God, because it threatened the grip of power, the communistic sadists and governments of the world today will not let we the people know our true divinity but instead work their evil plans to keep the masses helpless, in need of “controlled assistance”. The church was terrified of strong women as they knew how dangerous they were to their control. They stoned them, burned them at the stake, beheaded them and vilified them as a warning that has worked for centuries to allow the church and governments (one in the same) to maintain power and control. The feminine divine embodies the spirit of Christ, the compassionate and protective element of the trinity and the church knew they could touch people’s hearts and minds and eliminate fear, replacing it with love. Instead the church created fear of God’s wrath in the people, which has kept the masses in order quite well. We have seen the efficient use of that same fear over these past three years. Love overpowers fear and thus women had to be thwarted from engaging in their rightful place in teaching Christ’s love because fear can’t hold onto its power over people in the light of love. This is the truth that Christ wanted Mary and his apostles to bring to humanity after he ascended post-crucifixion. The Cathars, of France, led by Mary after she escaped there, lived and taught Christ’s Way and worked to bring this message of love to the world and the Church massacred most all of them. Those who escaped have maintained the secret order over the centuries and have kept Christ’s love story alive through the centuries. I believe it is still alive and just waiting for us to embrace it and use it against the evil we face today. Never has there been a time that allows us the opportunity to come together or a need so great as that which we’re faced right now. It must pain God to see his most beloved creation in such a sad state. Who are the strong women and men apostles of our time that Christ calls to lead his church and create heaven on earth?

Brilliant. I agree with everything you say here…sadly. Before Covid I was an avid researcher of Mary and her place in Jesus’ ministry…her gospel fascinated me…it is the most rich in revealing some of Jesus’ most important gifts to us. And undoubtedly Jesus gave his ministry to her to lead. I even bought a URL about ten years ago I have paid for every year but have yet to use it…www.marysgospel.com
I love what you say here…have you posted it on your substack?
Wow! How serendipitous! Perhaps you should start using that fabulous website to reignite Christ’s true teachings. Make it a collaborative for those interested and devoted to the Truth of her history and calling. I would definitely suggest Kathleen McGowan’s series of book’s beginning with The Expected One, followed by The Book of Love and The Poet Prince; I was totally hooked and blew through the other three and just finished her latest book, The Boleyn Heresy: Part One. I can’t wait for Part Two! Kathleen has spent 30 years on the research of villainized women through history and the work on Mary, is in my opinion, her best. I feel called to find members of the current order and/or, if no communities exist here in North America, start one and revive the teachings. Le temps revient!
Thank you for the offer; I am awaiting my answer on how to proceed. It will take strong men and women to support the initiative to revitalize the teachings of the Way. I feel I’m doing the work of researching and learning and God’s will will be manifest. Stay tuned. And see if you are moved by what you discover in Kathleen’s work. I’d be interested in your thoughts on it all.
Thousands of scientists of every stripe, working anonymously in labs around the world, seem to me to be the bane of human existence. When you consider what they have created and unleashed upon the world - GMO's, Roundup, surveillance and weapons systems, unnecessary pharmaceuticals (the list of poisons of Dupont and Bayer alone would fill a book), Lyme disease, and the weaponization of substances in bio labs - it's enough to make a thinking person scream at the insanity of it all.
This article was difficult to write because there is a profound beauty and Godliness in humanity's curiosity and interest in the world (nature) around us. The discovery of nature is not in itself an evil act...and I think you understand this clearly, and hopefully other people reading the article do as well.
It is the point that scientists reach where they believe just because they fully understand the material mechanics of nature that then they assume the position of God...and can therefore ignore all the non-material realities that are intertwined with the material ones...such as soul, purpose, ethics, the preservation of humanity, not just the material essence of humans, or what humans do.
You and Gwaihir bring up something that may be an important point. As you say, there is nothing wrong with the discovery of nature; and science is a great method to do that. But at some point in history "scientists" decided to become "creators", and then "science" has been used the wrong way. I believe God gave us the Arts (Music, Sculpture, Painting, Dance...) to be "creators". Then we can manifest physically our perceived spiritual reality. Science should be used only to try to figure out nature.

Yes... Unfortunately, science like so many things has become corrupted; and it has become - very inappropriately - a new religion (scientism). Since childhood, I always liked science. But science is just supposed to be a method to help us make observations and experimentations in an organized manner, to understand how the physical world works. Descartes, a long time ago declared that science does not apply to the non-physical reality. Mind you, he did not deny the reality of the non-physical world; he just said that we need to leave that study outside of science. But today, "they" want everything to be "supported by science"... even things of the physical world that are self-evident, and do not need to be backed by any "science". We know that if we put our hands on a hot stove we will get burned. Do we need a "randomized double-blind clinical trial" to prove that? Gimme a break. Obviously, the result is that we get a lot of "bad science"... We need to put science back where it belongs. It is just a useful tool to figure out some things.
Yes, I think I make the comment regarding my disdain for the line we see so often "scientists discover" implying that until "scientists discover" something it isn't real.
I, of course, am familiar with the separation of religion and science (or more precisely, the separation of the material from the non-matieral) but can't put my finger on the Descartes comment on science not being applied to non-physical reality. Is there, in his writings, a precise announcement of this proclamation? If so, can you cite it here?? Thanks!!
I would have to go back to my very old textbooks about "the scientific method" and "Cartesian" thought. I admit the idea is just something that I believe I learned a long time ago, about Descartes' "dualistic" philosophy, and always held as "fundamental". But I cannot quote a reference right now. Will look it up. I hope I do not find out that I have thought something about Descartes that I made up! 😅
Yeah, that is what I figured...it isn't something that he wrote down in a sentence or a paragraph...just was curious if you had run across that...but yes, if you know Descartes, the enlightenment, dualistic philosophy, you can say what you say...just cite "Descartes"....and read it all!
I have a love/hate relationship with Wikipedia....we were strictly forbidden to use Wikipedia as a reference while I was in school for my PhD...understandably so...but it is still a good simple, quick, reference tool. Thanks for the reference!! Actually this was pretty informative...I am looking forward to following some of the links...such as "emergent physicalism"...
Have you ever read Amit Goswami? "The Self Aware Universe" was my introduction to these ideas (dualism, quantum realism, etc.)
Did a little search of Amit Goswami. Did not know him before. Of course, I cannot claim to "know" anything about him... but my initial impression is that he seems to be of similar persuasion as Fritjof Capra, Bruce Lipton, Deepak Chopra... and others who have published works integrating spiritual concepts with quantum physics. I appreciate the work of these scientists; it seems that their thesis is that science is too "materialistic", and they want to incorporate spiritual and mystical concepts into the study of modern science, specifically quantum physics. Although this is certainly commendable, I question why is it necessary to "validate" spirituality by explaining spiritual phenomena with quantum physics. I could argue that by doing so, we may be unwillingly promoting "scientism" (nothing is real unless "explained by science"). I propose that we may limit "science" to the study of physical phenomena (we call it physics for a reason). It is "materialistic" by definition. Spiritual reality - in my mind - is a separate (sort of) - reality. Do we need to "validate" it with "science"? On the other hand: "As above, so below". There is certainly a connection. But maybe the "mechanism" is not explained by quantum physics.
I remember one day, during covid, I was driving down the highway to my (very awake) dentist and I drove past a sign from a medical center, flashing in bold red letters “In Science we trust”. The religiosity was just so blatant. And then people started peppering their yards with all their new creeds proclaiming science as their god, and wokism their tenants. It was such a fascinating realization. Actually, in the spirit of all that isn’t science, that which inspires and stirs the soul, I wrote a poem about it. I’ll share it - why not?
New Faith
The brick and mortar their cathedrals
Purified with the incense of antibacterials
The doctors the priests
The nurses the acolytes
The janitors the thurifers
The white coats the vestments
With stoles of stainless steal about their necks:
Their authority to listen to the secrets of our hearts
The papered and wheeling beds, the altars
Where we bow down and splay before them
That first bath and ointment:
The baptism and anointing
The shots, the Host dwelling within us
We sacrifice our children
In this blind faith we follow
Offering them up
To this God of Medicine
The policies, the Tradition
Regardless of what the (cherry-picked) Gospel says
N.I.C.E. is moving in next door. no bigs.

So well put...thank you...excellent.
I just finished an article, "Steps to World Rule: First, Destroy Humanity"...right up this alley.
I have two issues I would like to advance here if I may. One is the transhumanism agenda that is rapidly being advancing in the world now. I understand the procedures that enable the disabled to function better, but to enhance every aspect of human experience just for the sake of making people more robotic is absurd. The talk about making a computer to hold the consciousness of a person who has died is a philosophy that refuses to believe that a human soul only inhabits a body as a single "ego" consciousness for a limited time and then lives on eternally in soul essence is beyond most peoples' ability to understand. There is SO MUCH metaphysical information in the cosmos that scientists are completely ignorant about that it would make our current scientific knowledge juvenile in comparison It is just pathetic. It is sad. And it is very, very dangerous. Human ego has no wisdom or maturity about being cautious about their "magnificent" accomplishments.
My second subject is very esoteric for most people who have not researched expanded consciousness or dimensional reality. There is a young man on the scene the past few years who literally remembers the entire journey of his soul for eons. He doesn't claim to understand it - he just remembers it. His interviews can be found on Youtube, but he teaches multidimensional geometry in a series on Gaia.com. He is humble and very pleasant. I recommend just trying to listen to a few to open your mind to far greater awareness of the building blocks of the cosmos. Of course it is weird, but things you don't know about are always weird until you understand them. The future of humanity doesn't HAVE to be totally ruled by scientists.
This issue of transhumanism is really at the root of just about everything that is going on these days. I was not really aware of this when I first jumped on the shrew wagon, but now it is abundantly clear...and it has been going on for quite some time.
Read Patrick Wood's amazing book "The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism."
I have not really written much directly addressing this, but plan to in the future (an upcoming article titled "Analog to Digital: Subjective to Objective: Human to Machine" is a start...be on the lookout for it.
Agree 100% with your line "I understand the procedures that enable the disabled to function better, but to enhance every aspect of human experience just for the sake of making people more robotic is absurd." Nearly everything happening today is encased in a Trojan horse in order to make it palatable to the sheep public. It is again astounding how easily this stuff is swallowed...and I must admit I was once a sheep.
I also like your comment about the metaphysical stuff being shoved aside by materialist science that in comparison is "juvenile"...great stuff here, thank you!!
I will check out the guy that "remembers" his entire journey...very interesting.
Sorry I didn't include his name - Matias de Stefano - from Argentina. At first he has trouble with English, but when you hear his knowledge of Latin and Greek and EGYPTIAN, it is a tad amazing.
What we have is fake materialism, bolstered with superstitions such as the big bang theory, quantum theory, and other unproven assumptions. It's a variation of religious dogma, it is scientism.
Here's a video on the insanity of particle physics done by a physicist.

I used to feel depressed that the system is broken and that it would take a lot of work to set things straight.
These days I see that the scientific method is baked in, even to the vaccine safety signals - a month after launch they should have been pulled on numbers alone!
The system is designed well. The problem is that we have lying psychopaths in charge of those systems who don't follow what the systems were designed to do.
If the majority finally realize that science is not the problem, but the management of such science is corrupted, perhaps we can have a peaceful revolution where the rules are followed uniformly instead of this pick and choose bullshit that happens today.
While "science" at its essence, the investigation of the natural realm, is a noble pursuit, science, like religion, medicine, academia, and most institutions, has become weaponized against the people as a vector of exploitation, psychological operations, oppression and control. Most cannot grasp their peril, because they have invested their entire being into "belief" in the aforementioned "systems", and thus they are braiding the rope to hang themselves. Until they can detach, most can't, their detriment will continue at the hands of the system they trust. Public school trained them well.
Precisely...thank you...very well put...I like the phrase, "braiding the rope to hang themselves"...did you make that up? If so...wow...
No. I got it from Joyce Riley, rest her soul. She was out front of this 25 years ago. Some of her old shows may be available online somewhere. A real woman she was.
Cool...thank you...
Where have our Godly scientists gone; those who proved the power of prayer to influence the outcomes of their surgeries? Those who believed that God worked through them as instruments of their minds, blessed with the intelligence and understanding of God’s role in their calling.
I feel I was the last generation in my own family to be brought up with any spiritual education; Sunday school, worship services, prayer and Bible study, singing in a church choir to honor God. We have denied this undying generations of most children with the knowledge and embracing of their own souls and the spirit of God in their lives. We have, as a society, turned our backs on God in our quest to obtain more material things, thinking we are giving our future generations better lives, with fewer struggles than we and our parents and grandparents experienced. Many today have useless educations at great expense to us and them, and do not even know themselves as children of God. I know my own (step-children) think nothing of God or would consider spiritual intervention as a part of theirs or their own children’s lives. I imagine they would roll their eyes at the mention of taking their children to Sunday School or reading Bible stories to them. My daughter, due to her husband’s, in name only Italian/Catholicism, and as requested by his parents, had their son baptized in a church they’ve otherwise never entered before or since. I attended a shallow service, a check-that-square event to please the family followed by a more important lunch celebration. The priest who didn’t even know them performed the perfunctory service as if he actually provided them something of value. It was merely a continued tradition of “the family” but there was no deep-felt feeling of the nature of the experience. I observed it carried out almost with awkward embarrassment and a merely a feeling of duty to “the old folks” by the parents of the baby.
We, who know better, have failed ourselves and future generations. We have allowed God to dissolve into the background of our own lives in favor of political correctness of acceptance with our children and the woke-sponsored separation of church and state institutions demand and yet we wonder what’s wrong with our world and humanity. We bow to the media gospel, the increasingly inaccurate and ever-modified “science”, touted as truth which changes to suit the whims of politicians on both sides of the aisle (actually the same). We’re already victims of AI-generated propaganda served up by both sides; the same message, simply delivered in our preferred line of thinking, but with the same result. We have voluntarily given up our souls, our critical thinking, our inner, spiritual compass that connects us with God. Instead we have chosen to follow the golden idols of the moment, offering us immediate, convenient gratification and perceived acceptance within our current families and culture. We are lost and have forgotten who we are, forgotten the true meaning of our humanity as we justify the usefulness or irrelevance of others of our species, abusing and murdering God’s children and killing off our elders as they no longer serve a purpose as told to us by the new gods of science and government; they are useless eaters, no longer contributing to our shallow world of “thing acquisition” but simply wasting our precious resources. The population of human beings is a threat to the planet of things. There’s not enough to go around. We are basically removing those who impart the necessary soul impetus in us that we so desperately need to remind us of the reality of our human essence; newborn babies to instill joy at the magnificence of God’s creation, and the wisdom of our elders who have experienced all that life gives us and how we as spiritual beings need our faith and spirituality to coexist and thrive in this world of light and dark forces. We’ve been programmed to believe these human influences are no longer necessary; they are outdated and meaningless for our evolution as sentient, spiritual beings. We’ve replaced our spiritual intelligence with artificial intelligence(quite the oxymoron). We have basically spit in the face of God, our creator. It will not end well for his greatest creation.
Wow!!! This is BEAUTIFUL!!! You are in perfect alignment with everything I write about and believe. I have always been a very spiritual person, and certainly believe in God, or a higher "power"...I have not been much of a fan of "congregational religion"...more of a student of mystical Christianity, and other "religions"...but am beginning to see a profound purpose in the "congregational" version of "the word"...if it is all that people have time for, it is enough. Church, Bible, teachings of Jesus, etc. What more do you need?
Thank you for this...
I am studying the potentially more accurate accounts of women from history who’ve been vilified by the Catholic Church through altered historical records, throughout the centuries, beginning with Mary Magdalene. What I’m learning has encouraged me to return to my faith after ignoring it for many years. And I believe this new understanding of women’s vital roles in sharing Jesus’ Way as he instructed his apostles, Mary being his most beloved, to start his new church has a place in humanity’s sad story today. Women were created as equals to men in the sight of God, who created both in His image. He never intended for them to be vilified as the lesser, weaker, evil gender they’ve been portrayed as by the church throughout history, and this gives me hope that we can rekindle a desire for people to return to or discover their spirituality and their connection to their creator. I believe that most, if not all, our societal ills can be traced back to and laid at the feet of the men of history who held onto power by manipulating women and history to fit their need for control. And what a mess they’ve made in the blood lust to control everything.
Imagine how our world might be today if we all were allowed to follow Christ’s example from the Book of Love and men and women shared roles of teaching His Way to all those past generations. How different might society be? How happy and fulfilled might all of humanity be today? How difficult might it be for evil to wield its ugliness upon humanity? A humanity that was created to know and live it’s divine connection with God? That isn’t always looking for the fix to fill the empty void of their aimless lives because they don’t know who they truly are? Disconnected from their souls, wandering the earth. A humanity that knows the love of God and their fellow man. Just as the church of old could not allow Christ to show the people that they had no need for an intermediary between them and their God, because it threatened the grip of power, the communistic sadists and governments of the world today will not let we the people know our true divinity but instead work their evil plans to keep the masses helpless, in need of “controlled assistance”. The church was terrified of strong women as they knew how dangerous they were to their control. They stoned them, burned them at the stake, beheaded them and vilified them as a warning that has worked for centuries to allow the church and governments (one in the same) to maintain power and control. The feminine divine embodies the spirit of Christ, the compassionate and protective element of the trinity and the church knew they could touch people’s hearts and minds and eliminate fear, replacing it with love. Instead the church created fear of God’s wrath in the people, which has kept the masses in order quite well. We have seen the efficient use of that same fear over these past three years. Love overpowers fear and thus women had to be thwarted from engaging in their rightful place in teaching Christ’s love because fear can’t hold onto its power over people in the light of love. This is the truth that Christ wanted Mary and his apostles to bring to humanity after he ascended post-crucifixion. The Cathars, of France, led by Mary after she escaped there, lived and taught Christ’s Way and worked to bring this message of love to the world and the Church massacred most all of them. Those who escaped have maintained the secret order over the centuries and have kept Christ’s love story alive through the centuries. I believe it is still alive and just waiting for us to embrace it and use it against the evil we face today. Never has there been a time that allows us the opportunity to come together or a need so great as that which we’re faced right now. It must pain God to see his most beloved creation in such a sad state. Who are the strong women and men apostles of our time that Christ calls to lead his church and create heaven on earth?

Brilliant. I agree with everything you say here…sadly. Before Covid I was an avid researcher of Mary and her place in Jesus’ ministry…her gospel fascinated me…it is the most rich in revealing some of Jesus’ most important gifts to us. And undoubtedly Jesus gave his ministry to her to lead. I even bought a URL about ten years ago I have paid for every year but have yet to use it…www.marysgospel.com
I love what you say here…have you posted it on your substack?
...and thanks for that suggestion; it might encourage others to investigate!
I posted it and have gotten a few responses...
Wow! How serendipitous! Perhaps you should start using that fabulous website to reignite Christ’s true teachings. Make it a collaborative for those interested and devoted to the Truth of her history and calling. I would definitely suggest Kathleen McGowan’s series of book’s beginning with The Expected One, followed by The Book of Love and The Poet Prince; I was totally hooked and blew through the other three and just finished her latest book, The Boleyn Heresy: Part One. I can’t wait for Part Two! Kathleen has spent 30 years on the research of villainized women through history and the work on Mary, is in my opinion, her best. I feel called to find members of the current order and/or, if no communities exist here in North America, start one and revive the teachings. Le temps revient!
Well...I think maybe a woman should lead that "journey to awareness"...Jesus' ministry was clearly founded on the feminine.
I will check into McGowan...actually, I am pretty sure I have read her work.
Would like to have that URL? I would be happy to hand it over to you...
Thank you for the offer; I am awaiting my answer on how to proceed. It will take strong men and women to support the initiative to revitalize the teachings of the Way. I feel I’m doing the work of researching and learning and God’s will will be manifest. Stay tuned. And see if you are moved by what you discover in Kathleen’s work. I’d be interested in your thoughts on it all.
Thousands of scientists of every stripe, working anonymously in labs around the world, seem to me to be the bane of human existence. When you consider what they have created and unleashed upon the world - GMO's, Roundup, surveillance and weapons systems, unnecessary pharmaceuticals (the list of poisons of Dupont and Bayer alone would fill a book), Lyme disease, and the weaponization of substances in bio labs - it's enough to make a thinking person scream at the insanity of it all.
This article was difficult to write because there is a profound beauty and Godliness in humanity's curiosity and interest in the world (nature) around us. The discovery of nature is not in itself an evil act...and I think you understand this clearly, and hopefully other people reading the article do as well.
It is the point that scientists reach where they believe just because they fully understand the material mechanics of nature that then they assume the position of God...and can therefore ignore all the non-material realities that are intertwined with the material ones...such as soul, purpose, ethics, the preservation of humanity, not just the material essence of humans, or what humans do.

Reminds me of the Far Side cartoon...hopefully this link works...

You and Gwaihir bring up something that may be an important point. As you say, there is nothing wrong with the discovery of nature; and science is a great method to do that. But at some point in history "scientists" decided to become "creators", and then "science" has been used the wrong way. I believe God gave us the Arts (Music, Sculpture, Painting, Dance...) to be "creators". Then we can manifest physically our perceived spiritual reality. Science should be used only to try to figure out nature.
Yes... Unfortunately, science like so many things has become corrupted; and it has become - very inappropriately - a new religion (scientism). Since childhood, I always liked science. But science is just supposed to be a method to help us make observations and experimentations in an organized manner, to understand how the physical world works. Descartes, a long time ago declared that science does not apply to the non-physical reality. Mind you, he did not deny the reality of the non-physical world; he just said that we need to leave that study outside of science. But today, "they" want everything to be "supported by science"... even things of the physical world that are self-evident, and do not need to be backed by any "science". We know that if we put our hands on a hot stove we will get burned. Do we need a "randomized double-blind clinical trial" to prove that? Gimme a break. Obviously, the result is that we get a lot of "bad science"... We need to put science back where it belongs. It is just a useful tool to figure out some things.
Yes, I think I make the comment regarding my disdain for the line we see so often "scientists discover" implying that until "scientists discover" something it isn't real.
I, of course, am familiar with the separation of religion and science (or more precisely, the separation of the material from the non-matieral) but can't put my finger on the Descartes comment on science not being applied to non-physical reality. Is there, in his writings, a precise announcement of this proclamation? If so, can you cite it here?? Thanks!!
I would have to go back to my very old textbooks about "the scientific method" and "Cartesian" thought. I admit the idea is just something that I believe I learned a long time ago, about Descartes' "dualistic" philosophy, and always held as "fundamental". But I cannot quote a reference right now. Will look it up. I hope I do not find out that I have thought something about Descartes that I made up! 😅
Yeah, that is what I figured...it isn't something that he wrote down in a sentence or a paragraph...just was curious if you had run across that...but yes, if you know Descartes, the enlightenment, dualistic philosophy, you can say what you say...just cite "Descartes"....and read it all!
This is where I got the idea:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind%E2%80%93body_dualism
Not from reading Wikipedia, of course. As a matter of fact, nowadays I avoid Wikipedia like the plague. But it was a quick reference now...
The idea comes from a long time ago, learning about "dualistic philosophy" as a fundamental aspect of Descartes' thought.
I have a love/hate relationship with Wikipedia....we were strictly forbidden to use Wikipedia as a reference while I was in school for my PhD...understandably so...but it is still a good simple, quick, reference tool. Thanks for the reference!! Actually this was pretty informative...I am looking forward to following some of the links...such as "emergent physicalism"...
Have you ever read Amit Goswami? "The Self Aware Universe" was my introduction to these ideas (dualism, quantum realism, etc.)
Did a little search of Amit Goswami. Did not know him before. Of course, I cannot claim to "know" anything about him... but my initial impression is that he seems to be of similar persuasion as Fritjof Capra, Bruce Lipton, Deepak Chopra... and others who have published works integrating spiritual concepts with quantum physics. I appreciate the work of these scientists; it seems that their thesis is that science is too "materialistic", and they want to incorporate spiritual and mystical concepts into the study of modern science, specifically quantum physics. Although this is certainly commendable, I question why is it necessary to "validate" spirituality by explaining spiritual phenomena with quantum physics. I could argue that by doing so, we may be unwillingly promoting "scientism" (nothing is real unless "explained by science"). I propose that we may limit "science" to the study of physical phenomena (we call it physics for a reason). It is "materialistic" by definition. Spiritual reality - in my mind - is a separate (sort of) - reality. Do we need to "validate" it with "science"? On the other hand: "As above, so below". There is certainly a connection. But maybe the "mechanism" is not explained by quantum physics.
No. Don't know Amit Goswami. Will check...
I remember one day, during covid, I was driving down the highway to my (very awake) dentist and I drove past a sign from a medical center, flashing in bold red letters “In Science we trust”. The religiosity was just so blatant. And then people started peppering their yards with all their new creeds proclaiming science as their god, and wokism their tenants. It was such a fascinating realization. Actually, in the spirit of all that isn’t science, that which inspires and stirs the soul, I wrote a poem about it. I’ll share it - why not?
New Faith
The brick and mortar their cathedrals
Purified with the incense of antibacterials
The doctors the priests
The nurses the acolytes
The janitors the thurifers
The white coats the vestments
With stoles of stainless steal about their necks:
Their authority to listen to the secrets of our hearts
The papered and wheeling beds, the altars
Where we bow down and splay before them
That first bath and ointment:
The baptism and anointing
The shots, the Host dwelling within us
We sacrifice our children
In this blind faith we follow
Offering them up
To this God of Medicine
The policies, the Tradition
Regardless of what the (cherry-picked) Gospel says
We picket our homes
With our newfound creeds:
“We Believe...!”
And THIS is our new faith
We have awakened to the power
That only these Godmen can save us
Forever and ever
World without end
Amen
Wow!! What an amazing poem!!! Thank you so much!!!
And the sign you saw...."In Science We Trust"...hilarious as well as frightening. Wow.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
