Dank I asked you a question... Kinda important unless you are wasting time and not being genuine about your statement.

IF YOU HAVE LEARNED HOW TO HARNESS ENERGY USING NEW TECH - I WANT TO SEE IT, I WILL FUND YOUR PROJECT as an exchange for using this tech to power my mining operations.

Balls in your court, you want money and claim to have tech - I has cheeseburger and want said tech.

I haven't learned how to harness electrical energy yet, but I have learned how to harness spiritual/quantum energy.  It is sacred geometry, you can prove the existence of it's power through physical models such as the pyramid.

I don't have the resources or area to practice techniques of harnessing energy, though I do have some ideas, one of which includes a fusion reactor.

Though I've been studying sacred geometry subtly for a week or so.  I am sure I will pull much more away from it when I have the environment to support the research.

But abundant electrical energy is not my goal, electricity becomes obsolete in the presence of abundant spiritual energy.

I don't feel that I would be selling any electrical technology if I do create it with success.  Ideas are not to be owned, they are to be shared.  But what it could do for our planet is nothing short of economic freedom.

dank, I know that they are picking on you. And I apologize for taking part a little. I shouldn't have. Because you and I have a lot of far-sightedness, even if we aren't patient enough to do what it takes to make things happen (I'm too old to go back to school, and you'd have to abandon your motorcycle.). So, let me help you out the best way I know how. Listen to all the links in the below websites, and you will be able to figure out methods to unleash your love in ways that make things happen. I'm serious. I'm not picking on you.

I am not picking on him at all, it triggers my frustration when I see someone refer to love and light and their emotional condition being that of Jesus while they casually say their penis is magnificent - they smoke soul and mind altering substances and can finally drink alcohol without any reprecussion.

Where light of that level exists darkness does not, the very point of you having to numb your self down to not feel your emotions and then claim to have reached a higher sphere is contradictory. Your soul speaks emotion, everything we do is based on emotion. Humanity has done a great job at making everyone feel stupid or "Womanly" for feeling emotion. Though they are loving and unloving ways to express said emotion - Anger should be expressed in solitude on inanimate objects as opposed to towards your fellow man. I have a great understanding of emotions and how they impact our world and our soul but I do not process mine due to a fear of feeling them. My fear of experiencing Fear is greater than my desire for truth at this point in time so I cannot stand here as a beacon and tell the world to follow me.

neither should you, work on yourself first. Then help the world

I wasn't trying to condone dank. I was attempting to offer him the help that he so desperately needs. When someone is locked into stupidity as deeply as dank, don't you feel sorry for him at least a little? If we could only wake him up enough to move him back into reality. He could be such a great contribution to society...

if i had to make a bet, i would say that he most definitely believes in the things he says. he's just so consistent with it, and he exhibits common schizophrenic traits.. it's absolutely within the realm of possibilities that he is serious.

some of the things (and i mean only SOME) of the things he says i actually agree with.. so it just sketches me out, making me think "wtf? am i crazy too?"

dank, you should really pool your talent up with actor tom truong.. 2 wackos can do more than 1 working by himself. in the end, you guys might have to duke it out to determine who the real second coming of the son of god is, though.

Islam is good if you have good teacher,
Imran Hosein;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2J8QwZom8E

You need a really good teacher, because the Koran suggests the use of all kinds of underhanded and direct violence against those who are not Muslim. And this isn't something that was done in the past, only. It is orders and directions for live Muslims everywhere. It's just that most Muslims have natural love in their hearts for all people, and that's why they don't follow the directives, literally, like they are ordered to.

Sure, Islam is good. It is good for this life and for Muslims, but not for anybody else.

It doesn't get EVEN ONE OF ITS BELIEVERS into Heaven. It is a lie in that regard.


Smiley
What you have said is not inconsistent with Samaricanin.  It would take "A really good teacher" to evoke the good aspects of people, rather than dogmatically follow some scribbled writing from long ago.  I believe there are many such teachers, likely in every religion, and many such good people.

This does not address the issue of bad teachers and bad people, of course.

(Part I have crossed out is part I personally cannot agree with.  Although I am an athiest, if this belief is wrong I would hope to be judged by my deeds, not by adherence to one or another old book.  I would hope the same for those who for cultural, family or any other reason follow one of the many religions.)

Judgment by deeds is the reason why people are lost. NOBODY can be good enough to be saved. Judgment by deeds is only there to determine the quantity and quality of destruction in the afterlife. We all need to find a reason or way to get God to GIVE us salvation, other than because we deserve it. Why? We aren't good enough to deserve it at all.

39726  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Police officer JUST SHOT in Ferguson!! on: September 29, 2014, 04:05:02 PM
The anger over the police shooting in Ferguson is totally justified.

Everyday cops kill innocent people for the most retarded of reasons in America and no one is ever held responsible for anything.

Multiple eyewitnesses said Mike Brown had his hands up and he said "Don't shoot" right before they killed him. That is murder.

Also, another thing they haven't mentioned in the media. A big reason new riots have started up in Ferguson lately is because someone torched the Mike Brown memorial that was in the street.

Yep that's right, in the middle of the night someone poured gas on the mike brown memorial and torched it.

Like that's not gonna piss some people off.



I agree. Even though cops are there to protect people and property, it seems like they are often getting out of hand more than the crooks they are there to protect us from. Time to start suing them, human being to human being, using the common law the way Karl Lentz is showing us.

Actually, Americans are not getting poorer. They are simply remaining ignorant of their potential. The national debt is money owed Americans by the banks, not the other way around. And the banking system has created something over $200 trillion of debt around the world that is essentially owed by other countries to America. Start looking at things like the Uniform Commercial Code, and Accepted for Value (A$V, AFV).

The true meaning of "Christian" has to do with salvation from death in this life, and salvation from everlasting death in the next life, and salvation for everlasting life in the next life.

Anyone who forces Christianity onto anyone in this life, might be doing him a favor, but is going against the tenets of Christianity. Even God doesn't force anyone to become a Christian.

Gender inequality? How silly to even mention this. Why? Men and women are extremely different. In fact, there isn't equality between any two individual people, except that we are all in need of salvation. And in this area, we ARE considered equal by the Christian religion.

As far as homophobia goes, there is hatred and fear all over the place. It isn't limited to people who say that they are Christians. And it isn't limited to homophobia. The Christian religion teaches against homosexuality, because it destroys the lives and productivity of those who practice it. So, in fact, the Christian religion is exactly in the opposite direction of homophobia. This doesn't mean that all Christians practice their religion correctly.

There are Christians who are violent. There are Christians who are nonviolent. The Christian religion teaches love. But, if a Christian people are attacked by someone or some group, where should the love be focused first? Same as with anyone else of any other group. The love of family or other Christians should be first priority with Christians (outside of love for God). In fact, if a Christian loves his neighbor who is attacking him as much as he loves himself, he might use violence to stop his neighbor from the attack. After all, he wouldn't want his neighbor to fall into sin and lose his mortal soul.

The basis for all true Christianity is in the Bible, and particularly in the New Testament. Read it and see that violence is nowhere advocated. In fact the opposite is requested of Christians. It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. This doesn't mean that all Christians are going to act correctly.

Notice how the religion of Atheism isn't in the original list.

There's:
1. crooks;
2. good people;
3. police;
4. city government.

If the government is in control of the police, then are the people in control of the government?

If the city can't control the police, somone should shut down the police.

If there aren't any good people left, get the government out and let the people rule themselves (of course, that's government, right?).

The whole idea is for good people to set a government in place that can protect them using the police from the crooks. If this changes for any reason, then it is that there aren't any good people, or the government or police have become crooks.

39732  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: 4 Court Cases Helping Shape the US Stance on Bitcoin | Coindesk Report on: September 29, 2014, 03:08:35 PM
I really think that Karl Lentz is onto something - http://www.broadmind.org/. Properly used, the common law system in the U.S. can overcome virtually all of the U.S. Government charges regarding Bitcoin or anything else, if there isn't any harmed human being, damaged property, or contract that has been broken.

The fact that Americans and others who live or vacation on American land, often lose to charges made by the U.S. or State governments, has to do with the people inadvertently and unknowingly agreeing with those charges. If the people realized what they were doing, there is a lot they could do to protect themselves, using common law.

Whatever works. This sounds like a system that would use a minimum amount of resources. Imagine a system that could transmit and receive hashes converted to Morse Code and back again at the other end. As long as the signal wasn't interrupted - like by static or overlapping band signals - we could go anywhere with Bitcoin, yet without the Internet.

There is probably a market for a handheld unit, so that you could go to a yard sale, and buy your products without the Internet being involved at all. This way there would be no NSA reception, at least not that would be useful to them.

I would like to have a method to verify/validate things. I could go through Counterparty. And there are a couple of others. I don't know if Mastercoin is up and running yet. Is MaidSafe working yet? But I or someone would need to design my program if I used one of these.

There is great underlying logic to life. People gradually deteriorate and grow old. It is gradual because the mechanisms for life are powerful in some ways, and attempt to keep us alive. As the mechanisms themselves deteriorate, we gradually fall apart (I'm not talking about people who get hit by a Mack truck.).

The question I ask here is, do we die because we fall apart? Or is death really a way to depart this life when it would be too painful to keep on living? What if we kept on living past the time when we normally should die because of weakness. What if we simply didn't die? Is death a gift, built into nature?

Smiley
Well, first you have to start with everything. (Wink.)

There is congruence and in-congruence within everything. Rational intelligibility (think: "being an element of the set of all real numbers") is begotten of congruence. Irrational intelligibility (think: "being an element of the set of all imaginary numbers") is begotten of incongruence.




We aren't discussing the paradoxical (elements "of the set of all imaginary numbers"), but that rationally intelligible.

A classification, within limakasidian entropism, is a "subset of the set of all real numbers." (Note, again, only that rationally intelligible is being discussed.) When one speaks to "alive" and "dead" they are actually speaking to membership within certain subsets.


Speaking, then to death, one "dies" (ceases to be element of certain subsets of the rationally intelligible) because that was only a subset of it and the whole of them are.




What, then, does one gain by acquiring entropy within the mind?

Acquiring such entropy, such possible states of existing, it spans the assorted congruities that also had one's mind know that (that multitude of differences is entropy of existence).


As there is every congruence, there is every mind in every way. (Indeed, there is every thing in every way.)


How is this known?

An absolute tendency to become less orderly would not only generate itself but everything, Congruence (and, thus, incongruence) would be an inevitable consequence of every thing being. It is known, by change within one's own mind that there is a tendency to become less orderly, and one such tendency absolute is the most genuine embodiment of that.


What of restraint upon the genuineness of that?

Any such constraint would, itself, have to hail from a tendency to become less orderly for one would then have the "natural kind" and constraint upon its manifestation.


"Natural kind?"

Indeed, Aristotle (as all others) spoke truth! There is the natural kind, absolute tendency to become less orderly, and there are manifestations of that, every thing.


How have all others spoken truth?

Everything is by infinite congruence within an infinite number of things.





Infinite Congruence

Imagine cutting a tree into ten million slices. Should you position those slices in their original arrangement, you'll have what appears to be a tree. That's what like reality is like, except with an infinite amount of infinite varieties of "slices" (they're not actually portions of anything, save within congruence).


In-congruence

Should you position those slices in a wholly arbitrary order that does not correspond to the original, you would have an absurdity that would likely make you noxious. That is a more polite "subset of the set of all imaginary numbers" (your 1/0, if you will), for the individual slices themselves make sense.

We aren't moving from the past, through the present, to the future. We are actually moving in the exact opposite direction.

Numbers, sets, and subsets are only a language that we use to attempt to interpret reality. We live reality. Or do we?

Within limakasidian entropism, it is held that deliberate introduction of entropy into the mind for its unloosing can delay its loss to that uncontrolled.

The thing I would truly like to know is, are there any people on earth, right now, who are literally 200 years old or older.

Have those who have attempted or practiced introducing entropy, mentally, intentionally... are there records of the kinds of results they have received in their life? Are the results more than only mental (spiritual?) results?
