...all things must come to an end
Time to move over. Or on.
Whatever.

What difference, at this point, does it make?

YouTube Guy McPherson - Human Extinction Within 10 years

He's has a place in Belize, Central America.
Perhaps he figures he'll get a few extra months there.
Or maybe he just likes Belize & wants to enjoy the time left.

Whatever.

We'll get ringside seats for the ringing down of life on Earth

YouTube Guy McPherson - We Get To Be Here At The End

Should be quite a show, I reckon.

The immediate answer to this question is yes. But just how bad can science really get? Of course all of our weapons were developed from science. Then there are many great things that science has produced. How about science holding us back from realizing our true nature on this planet? There are so many things out there that science cannot explain.

I am watching Ancient Aliens on the History Channel and I keep hearing repeatedly, episode after episode, science cannot explain this or that, or the other. We as conditioned humans just automatically do not put much credence into these things and just somewhat ignore them. What if there is something out there that is right under our noses and because of the limitations of current science, we are ignoring some sort of important message.

What about those crop circles?....just to name one.

What Would Happen If Humans Disappeared?

Over the years I've seen the comments. I've seen the articles. It's a subject I've avoided because I don't want to get sucked into the whole topic of what has all my life seemed to be an innocuous and normal thing.

This morning it wasn't normal. It was weird!

I was driving into work this morning and holy Batman! but the contrails (or whatever you call them) were all over the sky! Like someone was up there playing tictactoe....all over the place! Okay, I live near an airport, yet only see the occasional jet fly above. The fly zone to PGH In'tl is further south of me. We see more helicopters than jets or planes.

Took me 10 mins to get to work. Was so blown away by the contrails I counted them. 53 and gave up counting as I was running late. That's dozens!

I'm a very proficient googler, but I really just don't want to go there.

Are there things going on in this world that YOU just don't want to know about???

spirituality. Not being trained formally in physics (astro-, particle-, modern-, quantum-, etc.), just merely a wannabee dilletante, I still know which end of a telescope to look through. On a dark clear crisp night, new moon, here in the north east of the USA, with a small quality refractor, adjusting by hand for the earth's movement, sure, the solar system beckons. But all sorts of galaxies are easily resolved as well, right from the back deck of our home. Pass the Gluehwein. Galaxies! We are told that each such galaxy contains a billion stars. Billion! And that even though we can hardly see them all, even with the deep field studies, best guestimates are that there are at least a billion galaxies, of various types, ages and sizes. Billion! Light millennia apart from each other and us. Closest star to us is some two light years distant. Light years! (light, in vacuum, travels around 300,000 Canadian miles in a second.) Second! Our fastest methods of propulsion would take a ship hundreds of years to get there. Hundreds! Now think how big and powerful just ONE star is. Our little sun, for example, is just quite ordinary in size, etc. And we now believe that with so many stars, at least some (we'll never reach them), perhaps millions, have planets that could support life as we know it. Millions! It boggles the mind. Aa.

Ten Simple Things You Can Look For To Determine If You're Neanderthal...


Me?
I'm not sayin'.
Y'all can watch the vid. And arrive at your own conclusions.

We like to think we can have theories "proved" by sophisticated science. Sadly, the scientific method is rather a way to try to show theories are NOT correct, usually by way of careful repeated experiments. The more this is done, and a given theory resists getting dumped, the more we can safely believe in it, and use it for technology, etc. Sure, the ability of a given theory to predict things, how it fits with other observations, the logic and consistency of its parts, and much more are involved in our believing it. But doubt always remains, which is the mark of good scientists. For real proof, there's mathmatics, QED. Aa.

YouTube Boeing YAL-1 Airborne Laser Testbed - Jaglavak Military

This was first flown in '02.
It's since been retired, & ultimately scrapped a few years ago.

That's the official story.

Could the recent series of North Korean missile 'failures' actually be evidence that this technology has been developed, perfected...and deployed?

NOTE - The Airborne Laser engages/destroys it's targets in the boost phase.
And that the portion of their flight during which recent N. Korean missile tests routinely...fail.

Coincidence?

While reading Manly P. Hall’s book, The Philosophy of Astrology (1943), he makes a very interesting statement. In reference to the light given off from the stars, “Has it ever occurred to you that these light rays may be carrying with them some kind of moral or intellectual energy?” I know if you do an internet search on Manly P. Hall, not everything you will find about him will be good. But, I do also know that if you want people to not listen to somebody, you need to shoot down their credibility. So, whether or not Manly P. Hall is a good person or not, this statement he made opened my eyes to some potentials or even realities. When he first wrote this book in 1943, there is no doubt that the idea of light being intelligent would be absurd, or outright ludicrous. But today….

While thinking about the possible validity of such an idea as light having intelligence, it occurred to me that it is very possible. Our modern day remote controls send intelligent signals to our tvs and whatever else. Fiber optics is light based with information/intelligent signals. What about how the energy of light produces electricity with solar panels, or even how plants respond to sunlight. I find it interesting that one of the most powerful secret societies is named the Illuminati. In addition, what about the bible when it speaks of Light. Without light, we would all be blind.

It is well known that our brains give off energy; however, can it receive energy…intelligent energy that has effects on us? The best way of validating that is when we have cloudy days and people feel a little down vs. a sunny day and feeling a little more happy.

If we are effected by external energies, and/or light, can we be manipulated by it? It is said that HARP has the ability to create the feelings of happiness and sadness in wholes of societies. Also, is God really light? Since the stars/suns are producing light….would it be more correct to ask, is God the universe? Was the idea of wearing tinfoil hats so crazy after all? Are our lives really predestined in accordance to the position of the universal energies?

White guilty, self loathing member of the tribe. New evidence tends to discredit much of his linguistic babbling on syntax,---especially the vapid insistence that such complex human actions can be somehow based on one gene locus. JFC. His USA hating politics go downward from there. Aa.
