    Re: The Next Big Thing

    Elizabeth;
    You can have my Rep Points if you want them; I don’t use them but I appreciate those who gave them to me. I guess if I were more civil I would have over 100 of them. It is nice, at times, to have knowledge of the topics one is posting in though. Many claim science knowledge, but few really have it.

    How do you teach science on a web site forum? Maybe we should try. Many of my postings are designed to help the so-called layman to understand the basic usage of the science terminology without getting into formalism. My blog is basically a summary of my posts. Do you think we should start a teaching forum for each of the TOE categories? I think we should just have fun on ToeQuest; that may require some to develop thicker skins.

    Re: The Next Big Thing

    I think the important thing is to do what we think is right - whether on a message board, at our jobs, in our communities, or with those who may be special to us - just do the right thing.

    For some it can be hard to do the right thing on the job if your job depends on you doing the wrong thing, but on a message board, points are easier to disregard in favor of truth and ethics.

    baudrunner,

    I don't know what you are talking about, but I have a hunch that if you explained your leather statement, this could be an interesting discussion. Please expound on your point.

    Science knowledge about an "illusion" ? ? ? Would it not be better to acquire a knowledge about the "illusion" and the science required to take you up out of the "illusion."

    You think we should just have fun on ToeQuest ? Do you have any awareness of the conditions the majority of the 6 billion people on this planet are living under as a result of materialism and materialists who just want to have fun at everyone else's expense ? ? ?

    dleviwing, do you understand the word stupor, (i.e. mental and moral numbness) ? Perhaps it would be a good idea to put some of your so-called science knowledge on researching what is putting you in such a stupor re the "illusion" and how you could come up out of both the stupor and in turn out of the "illusion." ? ? ?

    You are allowing the mind and its thinking and the chemicals it produces to control your life. Is that all you are ? Do you not have any idea of what you are doing ? What good is your science knowledge if it cannot take you or anyone else out of the quicksand of materialism (i.e. the "Illusion") that has our planet on the verge of destruction ? ? ?

    Is there nothing else in your world other than total hopelessness --- helplessness --- and death with nothing beyond it ? ? ?

    Bad enough that the materialism that you advocate deprives the majority of humans from any form of decent - safe - secure - life - but to add insult to injury it even deprives them of any hope for a future and leaves them helpless in the face of materialistic selfishness. In the biblical days of old this materialism was called "mam-mon" nothing has changed only the name to hide its identity.

    Materialism (i.e. mam-mon) is the "cause" and ALL of humanities suffering is its "effect." There are only two issues of concern to every individual on this physical-material universe one is materialism or "mam-mon" and the other is consciousness or the separate entity called "spirit" which is the Unchangeable Permanence.

    The choice is up to us "individually" to see through the falseness of materialism and reconnect with our "spirit" within us. This is not something that we have to evolve to - this is what we are - what we always have been - and what we always will be.

    The randomness of evolution is nothing more than the time it takes each of us individually to realize this truth and act on it. The randomness is not a property of evolution it is the property of when we realize and act on the "Truth" that sets you free ! ! ! Evolution is not random - "we are" - in respect of when we look for the knowledge of Truth - when we decide to act on it - and when we apply that knowledge that knowledge applied is "Wisdom."

    Re: The Next Big Thing

    (D) The G.U.T. or Grand Unified Theory which embraces all of the non-theories with all of the plausible theories and the proven theories and filters it all into the great Jigsaw of Creation. Its proponents hope to see a picture of it some day.

    The leftover theoretical material is discarded and recycled into implausible and improbable theories because they have bad roots. The depth of the scientific community's intellect has a direct proportional relationship with the amount of recyclable theories that wind up nowhere.

    Re: The Next Big Thing

    Hi IC;
    You’re an excellent example of the meaning of “stupor”. You need to recognize what you call truth that is based on what you believe as opposed to truth based on what you know. Since you do not know much, you’re in the stupor of what you believe. I find your posts comically entertaining as do most members. It’s hard to believe that there are human beings that think like you in today’s world. Do you belong to the “Flat Earth Society” too?
    Have a nice day;


    Baud;
    Those theories become the ancient wisdom and knowledge that so many believe in these day’s.

    David
