  1. I've been thinking on whether the social hierarchy of christianity in the bible is sub optimal. A single leader or prophet attempting to nurture & guide large groups of people may not be the most efficient design. The best format would be individuals learning to nurture and guide themselves, making prophets and leaders (somewhat) obsolete. Walmart enjoyed some success cutting middle men from their supply chains. Perhaps organized religion can enjoy similar success by following a similar strategy. Believers cease listening to priest and prophet middle men. Individuals become their own priests and prophets. Perhaps this is the way God desired it from the beginning.

  3. When I was 12 years old, I delivered newspapers. The sunday paper was delivered early in the morning. It was normal for me to go door to door in the darkness before dawn and to watch a nice sunrise as the sun came up. The TV in the living room was on. There was an old horror movie about a genie. While I was walking down a path to deliver a paper. Suddenly a voice behind me, that seemed near the back of my neck said something in a whispering or hissing voice. (I could make out the words but dont want to repeat what it said). I looked behind me. There was nothing there. There was nothing within 10 to 20 feet of me other than the pavement walkway I was walking on. Bordered on both sides by grass. I ran to deliver the paper where it was supposed to go. Rode home. Got a pocket knife for protection. Finished my route. Being somewhat rattled the entire time. To this day I wonder what it was. Ventriloquist is my favorite explanation.

    This has been on my mind for years. Bumping this, in case anyone would like to offer feedback.

  8. Stranger things

    Those aren't muscles, they're implants. Big masses of scar tissue will form around each implant. Essentially making the process not so dissimilar to a form of mutilation.
  9. Google Veo 3 Edit Thread

    Google Veo 3 (AI video creation software) has been out around a week. Parodies, deep fakes and photoshop edits will eventually be hitting the internet hard. Making this thread to share those grand future expectations.

  11. God interacting with humans.

    It doesn't matter if people are aware of it or completely oblivious.
  12. COVID versus TCM

    During peak COVID, I remember taoists selling charms and fu calligraphy to ward off COVID. There are also herbs I know of which science observed to carry anti viral properties. Does traditional chinese medicine have good methods for eliminating viral infections like COVID? What would the typical TCM treatment for COVID be?
  13. COVID versus TCM

    Interesting. Damo Mitchell told me take two tiger penis & call him in the morning if symptoms have not diminished. But I think he might have been joking.
  14. Advice for Clearing Anger in the Body

    Emotions can be observed, defined & rationalized to some degree. Not unlike a process of math or basic science. Making them easier to cope with.

    Females can have some real muscles. Boom.
  16. Opening The Energy Gates BKF

    Don't know what a BKF is. But when I read the description, it sounds similar to some things I do in the process of trying to create my own routine.
  17. What happens. After hearing the phrase "chill out". Once too often.
  18. Damo's youtube channel was shut down. Had he demonstrated some degree of mastery on the internet. It would have been shut down sooner. People are needlessly paranoid about this stuff getting out of control.
  19. Damo Mitchell – Youtube Channel

    Topics people of today consider serious issues. Were things I was stressing over 10 to 20 years ago. Like this campaign back in 2012: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_M._Walker_(U.S._Comptroller_General)#Campaign_for_fiscal_responsibility There's no need to discuss things that will take the rest of the world 5 to 15 years to figure out. I'll simply wait 5 to 15 years for it to become common knowledge. Feel free to revisit this in future years when what I said is proven accurate to a degree that people like you are no longer disputing it.
  20. Paintings you like

    AI generated art.
  21. What are you listening to?

  22. Damo Mitchell – Youtube Channel

    I'm stopping here. I think some of you have lost enough credibility as things stand. No need for you to post more causing yourselves to lose even more than you already have.
  23. Damo Mitchell – Youtube Channel

    Damo has 30,000 subscribers on youtube. Which could be worth $1,000 - $2,000 extra income per month. Youtube is a great platform for free advertising, building a brand and connecting with people. Every video uploaded puts someone further ahead giving them more opportunities to get their ideas and perspective out there. Why would someone voluntarily walk away from that? There is no reason to quit and every reason to continue uploading. So, yes. Some type of explanation is needed. And, no. Some generic "I being of sound mind and clear conscience decided to quit on my own" doesn't cover it.
