ragiya and gravitons, implications
It is hard to list Man's most important discoveries. It is super embarrassing when we realize we keep learning things, then forgetting them only to realize it was all written down tens of centuries ago and we as a species were just too stupid to understand what was plainly written long, long ago.
Archaeology began as a science sometime in the 1600s. It's early goal was not just the study of ancient civilizations, but rather instead to construct a timeline of them that fit in with the Bible teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. Churches funded much of the early research and published many findings we know today to be pure balderdash. Originally church 'scientists' claimed Man was only about 5,000 years old as a species. Since this fit nicely in the Biblical timeline it was for centuries so taught in school. Later of course deductive reason, new concepts, and new discoveries had by the early 20th century resulted in teachings Man was 20,000 years old and reality conflicts with biblical timelines were blamed on poor translations and a lack of understanding of the Word. Again Balderdash.
Today we know more. We know human skeletons just like our own have been found and dated as being 200,000 years old. We know we coexisted side by side with various other hominid species on this world. We can prove sometimes Man and Neanderthal lived together and actually mated. We know something really bad happened around 85,000 BC and all the other Hominid species died and even we shrank from several hundred thousand pairs to only about 1,000 breeding pairs on the whole planet. Then came the last great ice age and whatever there had been went under a half mile of grinding ice that erased any traces of a civilization. Only o*al tales remained for a long time.
What of the Bible you ask? Well ignoring the events of the First Council of Nicea, at it's core the Bible is based on the old Hebrew scriptures. They themselves had been mostly o*al and weren't compiled and written until the 3rd century AD. Early church financed archaeologists had accepted the Hebrew as a historical account. Today we know that somewhere in changing from an o*al history to a written one many truths were forgotten or distorted by the committee that chose which lines to keep and which ones sounded better.
Even more shattering is the relatively (past 40 years) discovery that the Hebrew scriptures were and are simply badly plagiarized excerpts of older tablet texts of the Sumer people who had themselves expended great effort into putting everything known onto clay tablets (millions of them) and buried them in underground libraries. After the great flood when the ice wall holding back the waters covering Europe and most of Asia broke (around 15,000 BC) the flooded Sumer civilization ceased to be and refugees settled in what we later called Mesopotamia and Babylon and Egypt. Amongst the Sumerian refugees in Egypt was a man named Abraham. Things were happening in Egypt and what became Lebanon and the time of the great lament (millions dying) was at hand. Abraham tweaked some of the older teachings and came up with a short hand o*al history of what had been before. Today we call that Genesis.Others continued the work after Abraham had passed, but it was an o*al history passed down from father to son in continuously longer and longer recitals as more and more was added. Without boring details, the tribes of Hebrews split up and dispersed, so that 2 or 3 thousand years later there were different o*al history versions.
On of the very early Genesis concepts which has caused much debate is the use of the Hebrew word Ragiya. Loosely the word translates in English as firmament. You will find it early on Genesis 1:6 and up to about 1:20. In 1:20 we see birds fly UPON the ragiya, not in it, so the firmament is not atmosphere. It is not earth either as the passages describe the earth dividing the waters. .End part 1

Are YOU A Neanderthal?
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.
...
Blog killah...
It could happen to anyone... post a blog that gets a fair amount of comments. Then one person (often a troll or someone who rarely comments to blogs) becomes the blog killer by dropping a comment, like a fart in an elevator. Everyone drops dead and the blog fades into the sunset!
There must be a scientific explanation why this occurs, I know I don't have that answer...

All things UFO...
Friday, July 8th 1922 marks the 75th anniversary of the Roswell incident that happened near Corona, New Mexico in 1947 involving the US Army Air Forces from Roswell Army Air Field.
Talk about the granddaddy of UFO conspiracies, this one is it!
We've got the military on record for crashed weather balloons... no, it's alien aircraft with eyewitness to 4 dead alien bodies removed from the crashed spaceship and autopsy footage.
Debunk, debunk and more debunk.
That leads me to watching a handful of HISTORY channel UFO movies this week. Years and years of collective research, photos and videos with all kinds of possibilities, but nothing exact. At least nothing exact in my mind.
I think I can sort out the TV drama BS stories versus some genuine mysterious sightings. Sightings of what?
Since the videos were all produced by the HISTORY channel, they read to me like watching episodes of CSI or CRIMINAL MINDS.
A few 'key phrases' were stated in several of the episodes that rubs me like 200 grit sandpaper. "Blaming the United States government for not protecting us"
It didn't matter if it came from eye witness citizens or from ex-military UFO chasers. They sounded like Trump supporters shouting "build that wall"
Anyway... I could come up with any number of analogies, one being we've got a guard in front of the bank... he's standing there doing nothing. Why? because no one is rushing in with a gun and mask!
They are blaming 'our government' for not protecting us, but there hasn't been an actual threat. Or has there? Buzzing over Arizona mountain tops isn't exactly an act of aggression. (you can quote me on that)
They know our presence... read our radio and TV signals, have the ability to stop and restart car engines when they hover over them. Can fly at blinding speeds and change direction in flight without having to make a banked turn like conventional aircraft.
We're not sure when fighter jets are behind, if they in pursuit or part of a secret mission and the 'alien' aircraft is part of a top secret US government project.
One other thing... I'm wondering if Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Australia, India, Italy, France, Spain and every physically large country has their own version of Area 51 complete with TV shows and eyewitness accounts of Alien encounters.

recently caught on video in India
Many people witnessed it. Supposedly a UFO was seen near also.
What do you think it is?
I remember when people first started carrying cell phones with cameras...the nay-sayers of UFO's would say, there are so many cameras, why hasn't anything been caught on them. Well...maybe in due time.
disinfect the body....possible?
Is it possible that Trump was hinting about something he might know, but it is a hidden technology/medicine?
or
Is it that he was really talking about us injecting Clorox in our bodies? ...or when he was talking about introducing the inside of our bodies to a light.
Of course, those sound like ridiculous ideas....anybody...a 4 year old would know better, which makes me wonder.
Happy Friday all.

Trolling and the Dark Triad
In the Real World, one must come to accept that some do not agree with you.
In the Real World, for instance, a woman may reject a man's advances, and for the most part, the man will accept that rejection and move on to greener pastures. Others, however, will be enraged by the rejection and become furious, their need for control overweening.
This inability to accept the disagreement may have pathological roots, specifically, in a grouping of mental conditions which psychologists call THE DARK TRIAD:
In the world of psychology, the term “Dark Triad” refers to the degree to which an individual manifests the personality traits of narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. People who score high in these 3 areas are less empathetic, less agreeable, less satisfied with their lives, and less likely to believe in the goodness of themselves and in humanity. People who score high on these traits are also more likely to commit crimes, not fit in socially, and be disruptive. Hence the word “dark” in describing this triad of personal characteristics.
Those with the trifecta of Dark Triad personality traits, therefore, can end up being a high powered corporate executive, a politician, or Ted Bundy. The level of narcissism required to be Dark Triad is intense and deeply internalized. The individual deeply believes they are superior to everyone else, their self love is ridiculously high, ... It does not matter if the Dark Traid’s self-confidence is substantiated or not... The Dark Triad person shows no empathy and will feel no remorse for bad and immoral behaviors. This ability is a skill to the Dark Triad Individual in our tough and unforgiving society, but it is defined as a serious mental disorder for a reason.
Sometimes, people disagree.
And inability to accept disagreement can be sign of a deeper problem.
Food for thought.

The Dark Triad personality is interested in anarchy at the expense of others, and they want to fuel social disruption.
