Heroes of the Revolution- Happy New Year!

 New Year’s day is the start of another week kicking off the revolution. Evidently the Earth circles around the sun counting as a year. January 6, 2021 was appropriately timed to start a revolution that was stillborn; deemed an aborted insurrection by Democrats.

I am not sure how the revolution was stopped in its tracks- the docu-movie Nancy Rambo- First Blood will show how close quarters combat in the capital saved post-modernism from hillbilly thugs trying to lynch mob moral and budgetary subjectivism. The Resident Evil Republican Party movie has several nominations for Best Picture and the lead actor Hyronymous Trump was awarded the Best Villain award by the January 6 Committee even before the show in February started.

Each year following the conclusion of revolution week and insurrection month there is a Heroes Film festival presenting awards to all the heroes in movies that save the nation annually from space aliens, illegal undocumented aliens from space and Mexico or Central America, nuclear attacks on San Francisco from Russia, Volcanoes that will flood the Earth with molten lava, sea level rises above Mt. Everest and so forth. It is certain that Nancy Rambo will figure high in the voting for best Hero Actor of 2023 for movies made in 2022.

A Broken Political Economy Can Leave One Broke

A broke revolt? Apparently it isn't proper to say "it's broke" in reply to a question like "Does you're economic policy work?" How can Americans accept that broke means having no money and can't be used to directly say that something is shattered, in pieces, fractured or busted up? The year two thousand and twenty two had an economy somewhat broken by a foreign war wholeheartedly supported by Democrats. Oil rose in price with sanctions on Russia and inflation hit Americans that aren't rich rather solidly. One hopes the distinction of being broke is not lost on those in government that might misunderstand the correct way to avoid being broke. Breaking a political economy can leave a nation broke.

https://brians.wsu.edu/2016/05/19/broke/

With wrong economic macro-management the government could break the economy and leave itself broke simultaneously. Broke and broken would be a fulfillment of the logical extrapolation of the David Stockman conundrum regarding deficit spend perhaps including the recently signed-in-to-law 1.7 trillion dollar extra federal budget bill. Once upon a time nearly a couple of trillion dollars was considered real money.

It is OK. to say that one broke something- like writing a budget leaving government broke as a past participle of break. In other words if one is an economist broken upon the wheel the poor soul would be broken and if not awash with cash, perhaps broke too. I hope that make it perfectly clear. Broke means without money more or less and broken is the right word for poorly designed political economies that don't work.

Drill sergeants used to refer to injured personnel as 'broke dicks'.  Maybe that use is some sort of pronoun. Bob Dylan wrote a song about things broken. His English was correct.

Ukraine on Russian Peace Negotiations; 'Not without Russian Surrender First'

 Ukraine's Presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak said that Ukraine will 'demilitarize the Russian Federation to the end'. The Ukrainian foreign minister said that a summit should be held excluding Russia to discuss peace. He also said that a War Crimes tribunal must be held before Ukraine talks with Russia about peace. With unlimited conventional weapons supremacy and with Washington being the free weapons supplier to Ukraine to war on Russia the prospects for peace, besides unilateral surrender of Russia to the will of Joe Biden and President Zelinsky have died.

The west has concluded that what is in fact the worst way is the best way for the New Europe to enter the New World Order. They are like hillbilly bull riders that super-glue themselves onto the saddle and won't be getting off until the exhausted animal collapses and perishes in the belief they will have a year of good eats for nothin. Maybe they are right, maybe not.

Questions such as 'Does God Create Evil?'

Philosophers of the 20th century developed the idea that categorical errors are the basis of numerous philosophical disputations. Questions are based in language and language has meaning lexicons or as Quine called them 'ontologies' with their own vocabulary that is not translatable into other lexicons since the meaning is embedded within a particular lexicon. Assumptions about God as the ‘author’ of this or that tend to have several implicit categories regarding meaning, what can be known of God directly, indirectly and so forth that would fall into the criterion of categorical errors or inter-lexical disconformities of meaning.

If evil refers to natural events like volcanic eruptions and the burial of Vesuvius I think it reasonable to assume that the physical mechanics of this Universe; the boundary conditions, were foreknown by God. It is likely that he set them too. The Universe has thermodynamics and evil and that is just the way it is. It seems to be a containment facility for mankind after the fall in order to prevent wicked disobedience from automatically obtaining everlasting, uncorrected life. Some pots the pot-maker breaks and others he destinies to salvation; who can argue with the Maker-of-Pots of what purpose he has for them? Perhaps mainly those pots that are broken or unredeemed or reprobate.

Can anyone understand the limits if any of omnipotence and omnipotence? I believe the answer is probably not. Can God create anything beyond his control in any possible Universe? Would all things God wills into existence exit in some way from eternity with God? There are innumerable wonderful questions to consider in regard to God’s power. Certainly though the questions tend to be reductionist and use implicit and nearly tautological premises since God is infinite in power and knowledge and people are not. Temporal questions concerning eternal issues tend to fall short of being competent and hence categorical errors or misclassifications arrive. People must ask some questions on a temporal foundation and assume there parameters are correct or somewhat comprehensive of eternal parameters when in fact they might not be and it is even unlikely that they are.

Shoes that unfasten themselves

  Would it be useful to have shoes that untie themselves. With the profusion of chips that understand human language it would be simple to make voice activated shoe unfastening devices powered with a rechargeable battery built into the sole of the shoe. Fasteners would receive an on off command- perhaps programmable to release a lock.

Simple fasteners would be best- perhaps (i.e.) a velcro strap etc. with a metal servo-latch.

I thought of the idea not because I enter many homes in Japan, rather because ice grippers that attach on the bottom of shoes for maneuvering city streets in Alaska when glare ice with surface water is routine in winter, require taking off the shoes to put on a different pair going indoors where scuffing up floors is frowned upon. They don't make many sawdust floors in Alaska anymore that aren't harmed by cleats.

Maybe some retrofit device could be made as well as properly equipped new shoes. Maybe the shoes could have wireless rechargers like Apple phones so one could just leave them on a floor recharger stand over night.

Evil is Undermining the American Dream

  Twitter dumped more information concerning government-Twitter collusion to repress free speech to benefit the Biteme administration's core post-modernist agenda. Evidently the F.B.I. and C.I.A. colluded with pre-Musk era Twitter execs to degrade, repress, spindle, fold and mutilate politically antipathetic twits.

https://nypost.com/2022/12/24/latest-batch-of-twitter-files-shows-cia-fbi-involved-in-content-moderation/

https://nypost.com/2022/12/22/facebook-twitter-stocked-with-ex-fbi-cia-officials/

The Twitter reveal is a disillusioning event. Although one may have known since the Obama administration that post-modernist, leftist, corporativist social media sycophants were rigging social media search engine listings or outright banning conservative and independent political opinion in order to keep the U.S. electorate in a state resembling mushrooms kept in the dark and fed a load of manure, to have confirmation that all is not perfectly fair and balanced in the American wonderland where everyone is living the dream drops a load of crap on the streets and all the aroma that follows.

Seattle's County-King Bans Select Free Speech on Employee Zoom Calls

  Seattle is a shining city on seven hills; one with broad sidewalks hosting the pathos that gumshoes like to  ponder wearing a trench coat in the rain. Inside the higher echelons of government insiders a woke philosophy to ban Christian and Jewish religious symbols has taken hold like mold on soggy bread. A King County Washington State (where Seattle is located) Human Resources Manager issued an order that no religious symbols can be seen in employee homes when making zoom calls. Gloria Ngezaho has generated an interesting point of contention about the rights homeowners and renters have when working from home; can an employer reasonably proscribe protected constitutional rights of employees because of the extorting threat of suspension or termination of employment? Some people don't take free speech and the constitution to heart or prioritize it over the values of dictators and the communist party.

It isn't quite as simple of an issue as it seems. Plainly courts wouldn't side against some businesses requiring that workers in their homes wear clothing on zoom conference calls; yet can they ban sex, or nose picking, eating snack foods or watching movies when discussing county business? If a county bans the burka at the job can it extend that control to the home? If a business bans cross-dressing transvestite presentations at work does King County ban that at home too? The woke crowd sides with haters of religious symbols and wants crosses, menorahs and nativity scenes to fade away to Strawberry Fields forever.

I am not sure of Manager Gloria Ngezaho's gender. I am not being factious or disingenuous. The name is female yet he or she looks mostly male although wearing clothing colored, uh, school lunch sandwich magenta (see photo with the Daily Mail. To some he or she would be an offensive symbol in-itself. It is a symbol of anti-Christian values comprising godless atheism. Christians are fundamentally tolerant of other people and believe themselves accountable for their own sin rather than that of others. Interesting questions though; to what extent can business or government decree what employees can do in their homes; can they prevent freedom of expression of the first amendment, or should they even want to?

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11573433/Kings-County-receives-Ebenezer-Award-woke-edict-banning-Christmas-Hannukah-displays.html

That is one of the conundrums of the woke movement; a proclivity for banning free speech wherever it is antipathetic to their own values. It was pervasive across social media undermining the earning of countless writers yet should not be gleefully taken up by governments that are supposed to defend constitutional rights like freedom of expression and religious freedom, rather than act to suppress them.

Should Pres. Biden Air-Drop Food and Bicycles to Afghanistan Now that Women Workers Were Banned from NGO's

 When the Taliban decided to ban women from working for foreign non-governmental organization such as help with food, literacy, health etc it handicapped opportunities for those marginally surviving to continue to exist without hardship or at all. A theocracy interpreting political economy on the foundation of religious and cultural ideas- mostly cultural in this instance, the Taliban are obstructing the vital economic interests as they have an eye on the afterlife.

https://www.axios.com/2022/12/25/taliban-ban-women-ngo-save-children-nrc-care

The afterlife is important; everyone goes there as sure as a tossed coin will drop to one side or the other unless floating in space or wherever. To help with life on Earth in Afghanistan after the ban and the exodus of so many foreign aid organizations that rely on women employees to a substantial extent, the Biden administration should consider air-dropping food, books and mittens all over the nation during winter, and maybe ventilated Make Afghanistan Great Again baseball caps for the summer season.

With millions of free paperback books translated to Pushtu including the U.S. Constitution, how to books, history books and science fiction novels the poor will have something to entertain themselves with for free. Maybe some sort of literacy program would be required for Afghans to enjoy philosophy books like Russell's 'A History of Philosophy', yet we learn from Sartre's short story 'The Self-Educated Man' that it is possible to learn outside college of college course material- at least in history.

Air-dropping solar cookers in Afghanistan's clear skies could reduce the need for burning combustible materials . Portable tents that won't be destroyed by sunshine would be useful, as might portable bicycles. Random air-dropped acts of kindness would show that the U.S. can donate more than thousands and thousands of military weapons to that nation.

Unleash the Dogs of Peace

 On this day of celebration of the Lord’s birth more than two millennia ago the United States leadership should resolve to unleash the dogs of peace and end the Ukraine war. Peace is a virtue for-itself generating manifold benefits and celebrating life. Life is a river of opportunity that grows attacked by its nemesis the necrotic monster of death. Human political leadership ought choose the living waters of life rather than the poisoned blood of death.

Peace was the hope that brought about the end of the Cold War beginning during the final months of the Reagan administration; culminating in Soviet withdrawal of military forces from Eastern Europe beginning December 1988

https://www.heritage.org/conservatism/commentary/how-ronald-reagan-won-the-cold-war

https://billofrightsinstitute.org/essays/tear-down-this-wall-ronald-reagan-and-the-end-of-the-cold-war

https://books.openedition.org/ceup/2759?lang=en

https://www.rbth.com/history/332046-how-ussr-pulled-its-troops

The United States once was the leader of the free world. Today it is something more like a sycophant of a military-industrial complex of international scope. Instead of seizing the opportunity for peace through negotiated settlement with Russia that would correct the iniquity of redistributing all of the Ukraine to the west, including the Crimean Peninsula, the Biden administration has consistently promoted war and all of the unfortunate, evil tidings that have followed. It is not too late to have a change of heart and let slip the dogs of peace.

Continuing the war into the new year brings more evil prospects for Americans. While the Biden administration has left undefended the southern border with an anticipated invasion of hundreds of thousands or even millions of illegally arriving aliens ahead it is financing the Ukraine conflict with more than a 100 billion dollars worth of weapons, cash, advisers and other goods at a minimum. The best it can hope to achieve is to end up where it began before the conflict with the former boundaries set by the Clinton administration that precipitated the present conflict. Eastern Ukraine under Russian control would have little practical effect on the people that live there economically or socially if a complete peace with demilitarization and free trade was established. Without a peace that recognizes historical Russian claims; without sharing the Ukraine, the foundation for lasting enmity will be poured like molten lava behind a dam of hate.

The Cost to Start a Nuclear War

 The U.S. Government has spent fifty billion this year on military and other help for Ukraine and the Senate has passed a bill containing nearly 50 billion more. One might wonder if that is enough to get a general nuclear war started.

The United States since 1940 had spent nearly six trillion dollars on nuclear weapons procurement and development by 1998. I would guess that since then quite a bit more was spent. The cost of keeping the nuclear locker is $35 billion each year. A lot of money has been spent to enable nuclear war. The amount of federal dollars spent on finding viable, innovative economic alternatives to war such as is Ukraine are ridiculously small in comparison. The U.S. government and especially the Democrat party prefers to invest in war rather than peace.

https://www.brookings.edu/the-hidden-costs-of-our-nuclear-arsenal-overview-of-project-findings/

The United States has given Ukraine direct assistance in a single year greater than the G.D.P. of more than 100 nations. Settling the conflict with a negotiated solution was and is the more stable course even after a year of blundering political response if the war actual does precipitate nuclear conflict. Russia has valid historical claims on Ukraine and the western government’s claims are understandable too. Demilitarizing the Dnepr frontage except for Kiev and letting Russia keep its eastern Ukraine lands with free travel for each nation over the border is quite possible. To fail to recognize Russian claims exemplifies the blindness that often occurs in the political leadership realms of belligerents of war.

https://www.cfr.org/article/how-much-aid-has-us-sent-ukraine-here-are-six-charts

President Reagan wanted to rid the world of nuclear weapons and that is still a good idea. Yet when the United States proves again and again that nuclear weapons is the only thing it really respects among nations when it wants its economic way with things it is easy to understand why nuclear proliferation is apparently viewed as a declaration of independence by those newly arming. Others seem to acquiesce in the power of the nuclear powers with economic assets too.

If a nuclear develops from the Ukraine conflict it probably will need another 50 billion besides the 100 billion earmarked for Ukraine already to light the fire. Maybe Pres Putin will demure from using nukes if the war goes really bad and troops need to withdraw to old Russian borders. Even if they did stability might not follow for the U.S.-Russian relations.

The 118th Congress Ought to Investigate Democrat Politician Investments in Ukraine

  The next congress- a Republican led one, should investigate House, Senate, Judiciary and Executive branch personnel to find out who owns land or has invested otherwise in Ukraine. The Biden administration was obviously conflicted with Hunter Biden's deep interaction with Ukrainians yet that may be just the tip of an iceberg. One wonders if crooked congresspersons would rather risk nuclear war than share Ukraine with Russia or make an honest settlement that would have the collateral benefit of ending immediate prospects for a world nuclear war involving Russia and N.A.T.O.

Ukraine may be blackmailing some U.S. politicians. Ukraine had a reputation for being somewhat fast and loose before the war and U.S. politicians may have put themselves in compromising situations. Democrats won't spend anything to secure the southern U.S. border and yet spend billions and billions on war instead of ending one through rational, peaceful negotiations that would provide land east of the Dnepr for Russia. Without a mutually satisfactory end of the war hostilities will continue for some time and harm the U.S. economy that is apparently a bit vulnerable to a cascade of disaster.

Mr. Zelinsky is a hawk and wants more and more weapons and cash. Republicans should find out who is obligated to in order to keep their investments secure. Such people would rather risk end of the world scenarios than end a war if it cost them anything personally.

Open Negotiations to Limit General Nuclear War

 I wonder if it would be worthwhile for the Biden administration and Russian President Vladimir Putin to hold talks to limit the range of any potential nuclear war. Atomic scientists have continued advancing the clock toward midnight since the Obama administration and now it is just 100 seconds to midnight.

Nuclear war might not be all bad- just mostly bad. Casualties might be horrendous if it is a general MAD exchange, yet if tactical nuckes are used first in Ukraine, and if the United States doesn't choose to immediately respond and upgrade the war to full scale MAD (as if Democrat policies hadn't already achieved crazy in partnership with N.A.T.O. that colluded with Democrats to surveil Americans and censor the internet) it is possible that casualties might be comparatively low.

It could be useful though to consider the range of a MAD war, or a general nuclear war and try to agree to limit the damage; each side could choose cities before the nukes fly that wouldn't be hit and would in effect be nuclear free zones. The game theories of nuclear war are many and complex. They would continue to be, however a battleship game inversion would tell the players what cities would not be hit by nuclear weapons at the negotiations and would approximate equality in population and value.

Per example Russian seaports are fewer with less population than U.S. ports. Russia might not want Petersburg or Archangelsk hit while the U.S. woulds want New York and Seattle spared and sacrifice Boston and San Francisco.

Russia might want Moscow spared in exchange for Chicago being spared- choosing to sacrifice D.C. because it has fewer people.

There could be some sort of environmental analysis that would limit nuclear winter yet liberate the use of nuclear war when needed to work out political disagreements. Some cities could be spared for humanitarian reason, economic reasons post-war etc, while others would be free nuclear-fire targets. There is no reason to not make nuclear war preperations to limit or moderate hypothetical conflict when the defauklt tends toward being worst-case saturation with nuclear weapons; MAD policy.

Democrat Jan 6 Conspirators to Charge former Pres Trump Today

The partisan January 6th committee will recommend charges to the Dept of Democrat President Biden’s Justice Dept. today against former President Trump. The Jan 6th committee probably will want Mr. Trump charged with conspiracy, obstruction of Justice and insurrection among other items. Because Republicans were not permitted to place a single member on the panel it was entirely partisan though a pair of Republican defectors to the anti-Trump crowd were selected by Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

There is no question that President Trump acted somewhat churlishly after his election loss. He definitely was recalcitrant about sending force to quash the pro-Trump protesters of January the 6, 2021. In my opinion the protest never rose to being an insurrection nor was it ever close to being so. A tiny minority of protesters bum-rushed the capitol building and ransacked it with unfortunately, a few police officers were crushed or harmed by the mob. Real insurrections are better planned and of more scope and competence.

N.A.T.O. Helped Cripple American Democracy

 Apparently N.A.T.O.'s think tank named The Atlantic Council was given work by the U.S. Government to censor domestic American politics and other items considered by Democrats as misinformation or fake news along with Stanford, Washington University and another establishment. Ultimately Democratic criteria for fake news included anything politically sensitive and antipathetic. It was illegal for the U.S. Government to censor Americans posting on the Internet yet N.A.T.O. could easily get away with that. Homeland Security personnel supported it when N.A.T.O. helped kneecap U.S. democracy.

The Election Integrity Partnership apparently was an Orwellian mislabeling in-itself.

https://www.eipartnership.net/blog/a-statement-from-the-election-integrity-partnership

https://www.foxnews.com/media/twitter-files-part-6-reveals-fbis-ties-tech-giant

Internet censorship, shadow banning and deletion of accounts by rich Internet concerns list on the Dow Jones exchange subvert American democracy and create a great opportunity cost of unknown extent altering the life histories and potential economic development of countless millions of citizens.

Corruption of free speech and the marketplace of ideas has run rampant the past seven years or more- I would guess that the N.S.A. and others have partnered with left leaning and plutocratic social media to censor Americans whom are regarded as rivals to the agenda preferred by the rich and the Democrat Party. At this moment Fox News' Steve Hilton is presenting an interesting review of some of the topics including that of N.A.T.O. in taking down U.S. civil liberties concerning free speech.

https://www.heritage.org/technology/commentary/biden-administration-outsourcing-online-censorship-conservatives

https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/issue/nato/

The history of corruption is more serious than it seems. One may be concerned that one third of European have been contaminated with a brain infecting parasite from cat feces and blame that for bad European decisions in preferring war with Russia rather than peaceful relations and respect for historic Russian ownership of Ukraine, yet that would be a wrong explanation.

https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/toxoplasmosis/toxoplasmosis_catowners.html#:~:text=Cats%20get%20Toxoplasma%20infection%20by,for%20up%20to%20two%20weeks.

While cat crap fever is dangerous, bad N.A.T.O. and Democratic war party decisions are made for reasons of wealth and power. Censoring the Internet kneecaps real American democracy and makes it a fop tool for show purposes.

US Gov Shouldn't Give Democrat Social Media Giant Military Genetic Material

 Military service members serve their country at personal risk. There is no way the US Government should give away or sell human body parts, tissue samples or material removed from human bodies with genetic material without express written consent from the military member or survivors. Google may be developing Artificial Intelligence and would like to use the genetic data for sundry purposes. One can easilly imagine dystopian application including designing super soldiers etc with so much data. It is alos possible to track military members through their genetic data since their are so many other non-military sources of genetic data. The ability for nefarious powers to identify service members could create a cas ade of harm to veterans.

https://www.propublica.org/article/google-human-tissue-jpc-military

Post-modernists may regard the military and service members or veterans as bad amoeba to study and sanction. The U.S. Government should not be their accomplice. Google may want to censor human genetic structures like it does blog posts

Wavefunction and Everett (what reality is continued)

 Interesting points of view. I suppose the Universe or mass and energy are composite; pluralist builds of all things, yet sentience of course does work- it's more than a different state off matter. One shouldn't be rashly reductionist about mind arising from matter. The wavefunction, Shrodinger equation, Hilbert Space quantum paradigm etc; does it all require different ways of viewing things if one substitutes Hugh Everett's paradigm of what Tegmark named a level 4 Multiverse instead of the Copenhagen Interpretation/Schrodinger wavefunction collapse? Or does the Higgs field effects slowing down two dimensional particles so they pick up a third dimension and allow the appearance of three dimensional mass to exist mean that items like quantum entanglement are secondary, contingent phenomena too?

I would think that reality is everything that exists including appearances of it sentient beings are aware of and everything they aren't aware of too. Even so these days I tend to regard the two dimension, massless particle-wave realm 'outside' or beyond the Higgs field as more fundamental than the three-dimension world of experience.

 Tegmark speculated the Multiverse is made of math; that a logical structure exists in it that corresponds to reality and is based on oure math. The idea of a mathematical universe brings one to think that there is a logical structure to the universe including the quantum world that seems necessary for temporality, motion, being and nothingness, change, evolution and so for th yet of course it could all be in the thought of God. An infinite Multiverse pre-existing from eternity in an Everett-Tegmark Level 4 Mutliverse construction perhaps. It's interesting to consider. String theoriy's Mutliverse paradigm with mathematical, logical structure would be interesting for mathematicians to consider and for others like myself to read about.

Pres Biteme Signs Respect for Homo Marriage Act into Law

 Democrats have forced states to recognize queer ersatz marriages from other states. In a divided congress heavily polarized legal technicalities exploited like kedging a sailing ship of yore have been worked by attentive Democrats to force their will upon the unwilling. Maybe it's inevitable that a decadent and corrupt leadership mileau in an anthropic age with possible global warming death of the human race ahead would become wicked. It is possible and perhaps necessary that compelling legal fictions is OK when a balanced budget or a just society without wealth being concentrated are as dead as the dodo.

The Respect for Queers Expropriating Marriage Act is a wierd thing that forces red states to submit to laws passed in blue states (queer 'marriage'). If Massachusetts has queer marriage then Idaho must respect queer marriages. Or if California makes car theft legal then cars stolen in California must be recognized in Oklahoma as belonging legally to the car thief in possession of that car with California plates in Omaha. Or if dope smoking is lawful in blue states, red states must let visitors from blue states smoke their dope except maybe in restaurtants indoors.

Revivals of nations have occurred yet the sophistry and skill of the corrupt, ungodly and reprobate disrespecting God are as profound and solid as the superfluous, needlessly belligerent 'respect for marriage act' that is truly Orwellian doublethink. As might be expected the fake marriage force act hid behind interracial marriage protections; probably unnecessary as Americans have already accepted interracial marriage for some time. There isn't a false element to interracial marriage. Queers simply cohabit and should have created their own, new institution instead of expropriating and redistributing the old.

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/12/13/biden-s-codifying-same-sex-interracial-marriage-00073762

The Democrat Party has evolved to being domestic fascists spiritually (if they had spirit) using legal advantages to try to compel one-party rule including social media censorship, racketeering and operative organized crime. They are intolerant of anything besides their social zeitgeist narrowly interpreted and really don't support individual intellectual or political independence. They should have passed a respect for American citizenship and borders act instead of a respect for legal fictions that is the lie of homosexuals marrying as if they were heterosexuals marrying to produce offspring. The respect for lies act is appropriate for post-modernists that regard people as meat or amoeba; truth is subjective to Democrats without any objective reality.


Tesla is More for Republicans and Libertarians than Democrats

  Democrats don't like Tesla so much anymore being disaffected by Elon Musk's Neo-libertarianism rather than Orwellian neo-Democratic censorious one-party rule. Republicans seem to be inheriting the kingdom of Tesla purchases and with so much global competition for EVs now Tesla may need to redesign its product appearance.

I was riding a bike a couple of years ago when two guys stopped in the middle of the street driving Tesla's apparently, in order to talk about that. To me they looked liked Saturns- yet I am not so knowledgeable about car fashions. If Democrats won't buy because of Musk and Twitter then Tesla should ditch the wussy look and go for macho with rugged models that would appeal more to male voters not working for the Cambridge dictionary or social media.

Dodge went that route with trucks long ago moving to Rams etc. Apparently people want p.o.v.s to seem like they are suitable for combat in some form, even if they are EVs, not four wheel drive vehicles and will be used to take someone to work making donuts. A convertible EV would be a great item too for a niche market, yet it should also look like it can drive up a stream's dirt track.

Write Songs for Every Holiday Occassion

  This Christmas with Christmas songs playing at many locations near you, endless loops of mistletoe, snowfall, etc encourage one to be in the holiday spirit. Some of the songs are quite good even if perennial. Since I wrote a song once, or rather the lyrics for a song that never became popular I have thought about writing other songs. Song writers ought to write music for every national holiday.

My song 'Beneath the Stars' was a commemorative D-Day song published in 1992(driving through the wall, into the shadow of nights that brawl).  Some general said that war fighting is like a brawl. My thought was that the removal of the Berlin Wall nearly fifty years after D-Day was worth noting. I also threw in references to the end of the Cold War 1.0 writing that 'peace must be a profit of electromagnetic space station put up in the catapult's haste. I  believed that it was important to move ahead with electro-magnetic mass drivers instead of chemical rockets to create a mass heavy lift capability to rapidly establish a human presence in the solar system beyond Earth. I thought that hollow spheres might be made through numerous means by the thousands or millions, comparable to the siliceous chalk of Dover made of tiny shells deposited on an ancient sea floor. 

Ideas of science fiction and history applied to the real world are sleeping beneath the stars; in the minds of so many on the planet; comparable to Kant's dogmatic slumber humanity needs to wake up. Even the woke movement seems somnolent to me and humanity is still asleep (*except for the spiritually reborn in the Lord) to the potential for space development around the solar system. Maybe it is lucid dreaming in color, making virtual reality and flunking the real world Using newer mega-technology that is simple conceptually yet scalable should occur to compliment a certain amount of free enterprise capitalism that is of limited scope.

Since my first song didn't work, and from my point of view the rival 'Watching the World Wake Up from History' which commemorated Karl Mark's hit book in order to hail 30 years of plutocratic capitalism with bad ecospheric practices, it is time to suggest better ideas.  Of course one could write great songs to play on Thanksgiving commemorating turkeys, pilgrims, Penobscot Indians or whomever they were at Pilgrims Rock to enjoy the party set by Pocahontus the party planner, yet I am not sure that I can write a great song about a turkey or even lyrics to one; maybe writing songs to play on M.L.K. day would be simpler.

Here is the song I wrote lyrics for...

Are Laws of Physics Real?

 An interesting article in New Scientist by theoretical physicist Sankar Das Sarma considered the issue about laws of science as an obsolete notion. In a way this is a position written with good information yet with one significant categorical error in regard to language. Laws are verbal constructions and linguistic paradigms as are all information put into words. Kripke’s Naming and Necessity considered that paradigm in depth. Even Saul Kripke didn’t support unlimited Platonic realism for word meanings. With W.V.O. Quine he had a temporal, nominal element to his word meaning universes or ontology.

https://www.newscientist.com/article/2349359-why-the-laws-of-physics-dont-actually-exist/

Dr. Sarma writes about physical laws of this Universe and theoretically for string theory’s virtual infinite number of Universes called a Multiverse being different for each. The Schrodinger equation explains quantum collapse into three-dimensional space. High Everett’s alternative explanation has an infinite number of Universes existing so waveform collapse equation isn’t required. Laws rather than being universal explanations for quantum mechanics or mass-energy behavior are local to particular, given regions functioning in a given way consistently. If differing regions surrounding a physical ontology interact with it one would think there would be some sort of differential engine or integral engine translating the interaction of the various, different areas of physical laws in some way. Alternatively grand chaos clashes of inconsistent systems of universal laws would be ongoing events.

I believe Dr. Sarma may mean that there isn't one set of universal physical laws that govern every possible universe. That does not mean however than the physical laws or consistent behaviors don't exist in the Universe humanity presently lives in. The laws of the Universe do not exist just in one's mind; they exist throughout the region we regard as universe 1 (our human universe even if shared by aliens somewhere).

 I would think that Einstein’s relativity theories opened the door to a plethora of Everettian quantum field Universe theoretical structures via inspiration. If infinity is found in the  number of physical universes of a Metaverse, the universes with similar physical laws may be infinite too rather than all being equal. There could be an infinite number of universes that are similar and different in a grand example of Cantor’s trans-finite numbers and sets actualized.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FH-q0I1fJY

Laws though are language paradigms. If no language besides that of God is ultimately immutable that is what one might expect of laws of physics too. One might not expect that the laws implicitly operating within a universe should continue before or after the existence of a universe any more than one should expect the combination to a safe to exist before or after it existed (one could be a Platonic realist and believe the combination lasts forever even after the safe itself no longer exists).

Physical laws though cannot be made ‘absolute’; they work while they work. Physical laws are recurrent behavior of things like the structure of quanta and how they can form valid, stable orbits with an implicit, consistent logic to those structures. That is, some forms are permissible for quanta and others not; that could be said to be a physical law. Perhaps logic could be said to be a ‘law’ that could outlast a universe and be universal or Metaverse yet logical systems exist in numerous forms too instead of in just one like Aristotelian logic.

I am not at all persuaded that an infinite number of universes in a Multiverse could not have mathematically describable structures that are consistent for the entire Metaverse. Abridged mathematical descriptions of the structures of a Metaverse and permutations of universe laws progressively seems possible and some day may be generated by human or other intelligence.

Pres Biden's Existential Threat with Ukraine Bic Flicking

  Ukraine’s recent attacks on Russia and Mariupol with American supplied weapons have made the war the first conflict in memory to continuously flirt with nuclear war. Inciting Russia with grave provocation may be fine with the Biden administration that supplied Ukraine with advanced missiles. The power Bic flicking war weaponizing with Russia is more than an obnoxious fly landing on the cake to U.S. observers. It is more than a Covid 19 crisis; it is a continuum of daily threats of nuclear war being ignited by Russian leadership becoming more backed into a corner like an animal hunted down by western-armed dogs of war. People tire of the daily new incident that seems to fan dry winds of nuclear war toward Russia when President of Ukraine Zelinsky orders new actions with weapons upgrades from Pres. Biden. From an American perspective it is wrong to have U.S. security depending on a former comedian-President of a former Soviet Republic going too far riding the tide of western military support eastward.

https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/11/europe/ukraine-crimea-melitopol-odesa-intl-hnk/index.html

https://www.businessinsider.com/pentagon-to-support-ukrainian-long-range-attacks-on-russia-times-2022-12

The Biden administration policy is dangerous to U.S. national security comprising an existential threat that is renewed each day. Sure the administration may back Russia into a corner or even support C.I.A. regime change, there were alternative peaceful policies that could have avoided the entire nuclear war 50-50 scenario though. Maybe some people in their late 70s don't care that much about survival or peace instead of war enough to select non-violent international relations developments.

Cherry scenarios from administration analysts may foresee a western-loyal lawyer like jailed Alexander Navalny becoming the next Russian leader. Regime change hasn't always worked well for the U.S., or went exactly as planned. The administration has chosen to work with Venezuelan President Maduro instead of the expatriate Guaido though, so even if a regime change were brought into being and Ukraine developed hegemony on the Russian border, the instability of Russia would increase even without a hail-mary Russian nuke attack by the outgoing, embattled President Putin (though Mr. Putin said he isn't mad (disputed by some in the west necessarily for disagreeing with western policy)).

It isn't likely that President Putin's term of office would end peaceably through U.S. machinations. Trust is lacking, and rightly so considering the end of the Cold War 1.0 follow-up, the fate of Saddam Hussein, or that of Moamar Khaddafi who settled affairs with the Bush II administration only to be shellacked by the next Democrat President. There is a strange resonance that the Pan Am Lockerbie bomb maker was renditioned to U.S. custody last Sunday wrapping up one Khaddafi era item. Alternate party politics can alternate international relations policies and approaches to contradict the other's work. The reversal of Obama-Iran policy during the Trump administrations probably influenced Iran's decision to supply Russia with drones used in the recent attack on Odessa, and for Russia to supply Iran with advanced weapons. The risk of nuclear weapons proliferation by a strapped Russia to trade nukes to Iran for military goods may have increased derivatively. Maybe experienced arms trafficker like Victor Bout have clandestine contacts to works such deals.

 Pres Putin said he may revise Russia's nuclear war policy to upgrade it and allow first strikes.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/putin-threatens-russia-might-add-nuclear-first-strike-to-attack-plan

Fortunately for President Biden conservative political opinion has been subdued in social media and large Internet engines like Google, hence formation of anti-administration public political opinion was significantly reduced in the U.S.A. Perhaps the policy of media-social media collusion began during the first year of the Obama administration and increased in power and scale as Democrat political successes in Congress through one-party legislation grew too.

War, Post-Modernism and Groceries

 Post-modernism is an interesting phenomenon wherein for a number of reasons people tend to disbelieve in the existence of objectivity including an objective reality of the Universe itself. One may know of the Higgs field rendering two dimension massless particles into three dimensions temporally because the field slows the particles down in effect creating a virtual third dimension, yet the common sensory experience of those fields that appears to be reality at least attests to the objective existence of fields or of some consistent structured force outside of conscious thought.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFIGEeyytC4

I read a philosophical article recently that basically sought to explain the underlying reason for wars as emotional. It is interesting yet not to rare to find that some account for the existence of wars on the basis of a single cause. I believe it is in no way that simple. Modern wars tend to occur because political leaders make bad decisions, sometimes way before the start of armed conflict as has occurred in the present Ukraine-Russia war that has causality reaching to the winning western leaders levering too much land away from Russia in settling the post-Soviet Union transition space. Western leaders that were mostly Democrats felt the opportunity to steal land from Russia (the Crimea especially as well as areas east of the Dnepr was ripe and built up anti-Russian forces and narratives to the point where the victors write contemporary history for-themselves as good guys and Russians as villains. As I said, modern wars occur because people aren’t always wise or honest in politics and make bad choices for-others and for-themselves.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmodernism

Post-modernists have taken over schools to a certain extent in the United States and felt that a new homosexual and female sex revolution was appropriate because of Democrat constituent empowerment in federal politics. They choose to have everything their own way including in social media. That was appropriate for those that believe objective reality faded away to simple subjectivity. I believe it is notable thought that post-modernists, despite Andy Warhol’s Soup Cans, tend to regard grocery shopping as objectively real and are fairly conservative on that. Where the vegetables and beef hit the car and pot liberals and leftists are as conservative as anyone, especially vegans that believe animals are real for the purpose of eating and eschewing chowing down on steak etc.

Deon Sanders to Herd Colorado Buffaloes toward elite fields

 Deon Sanders has signed on to lead the Colorado Buffaloes. The University of Colorado has been on hard times for quite a while and needed a kick start to get the engine running. Not that they were ever an elite team although Coach McCartney went 11-1 and won an Orange bowl in 1990.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deion_Sanders#Dallas_Cowboys

Coach Sanders won two national titles in a lower division and probably will find success at Colorado, itself a good location to advance further uphill to an NFL head coaching job with the Broncos if he can make the Buffaloes an elite team or win the national title a couple of years.

If One Inherited Wealth (poem)

If one inherited wealth
on the first day of Christmas I’d give away in spree
moneys to deserving charities
on the second day of Christmas I build homeless shelters free
and lay ultra high speed rails across the wide country
on the third day of Christmas the spirit gave to me
an assurance of eternal life for those saved with Christ’s majesty
on the fourth day of Christmas if I had money left
it would go to the poor, suffering and uninstall governed theft
on the fifth day of Christmas with real inherited wealth
from the Lord and those that didn't build it
I would ante and stilt it on with flowers and cards
If I inherited wealth and owned networks
I would punt them all so well they could find real jobs
On the seventh day of Christmas if my heart skipped a beat
I’d outbid wars and donate them to the D.N.C.
on the eight day of Christmas with instantly earned encrypted wealth
it would be good to feel good and refill advanced ecosystem’s health
on the ninth day of Christmas if water turned to stone
I might apply for electric auto loans
on the tenth day of Christmas a network sent to me
parting shots like refuse from penultimate hellish streets
on the eleventh day of Christmas heaven seemed closer now
like warm horizons to gulag camper p.o.w.s
it was on the twelfth day of Christmas that true hope was born
eternity arrived one predestined morn

Elon Musk Enfiladed Biden-Twitter Axis of Evil Censorship

 New Twitter owner Elon Musk revealed internal emails that prove collusion with Democrats including the National Committee and Joe Biden to censor news about Hunter Biden’s laptop. Apparently more than 97 percent of Twitter exec political contributions were made to Democrats so collusion to suppress conservative posts and antipathetic news is not surprising. Most big social media corporations like Facebook, Google etc are heavily populated with leftists and completely onboard the censor conservative agenda in order to dominate politics and rule the world through corporatocracy.

https://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/3760753-censorship-by-surrogate-why-musks-document-dump-could-be-a-game-changer/

It would be great if conservative billionaires bought Google and revealed its anti-conservative biases and rigging of search engine listings etc since Democrats are colluding with the rich to kill democracy and the marketplace of ideas, online.

Build Desalination Evaporation/Condensate Capture Canals for Somalia

 A desalination project using simple new evaporation/condensation capture methods should be funded and installed across the nation of Somalia. A Muslim-Christian cooperative project might alleviate concerns of Islamic terrorists that decadent western godless social values would infect any western investment that would draw the wrath of radicals to destroy the project.

Somalia is an idea country to try out simple yet vast methods to pump seawater uphill and let it slowly trickle downhill in canals that have an inverted v shaped transparent roof that would capture fresh water evaporating from the saline water of the inner canal. With African heat and mild slopes the solar-energy cost to pump seawater uphill in pipelines should be far less than that required for an American project pumping water to the continental divide along the Mexico-U.S. border.

Simple techniques and be cost-effect and easy to maintain in a war ravaged social environment. Even Islamic militants ought to value drinking and irrigation water at large scale. Thew drought is dangerous and deserves a lasting remedy. Simple techniques and be cost-effect and easy to maintain in a war ravaged social environment.

Democrats, Dictators and Venezuelan Oil

 The United States doesn't recognize Venezuela's President Madura as the constitutionally elected President. There are no Democrat committees set up to investigate the fake election results, just Joe Biden's emissaries conducting friendly business deals to let President Madura export oil to the United States.

https://www.heritage.org/americas/commentary/venezuela-bizarre-piece-bidens-incoherent-energy-policy-puzzle

Venezuela has lots of fine oil Americans can burn up and add to the vast left-wing supported global warming gas flow streaming into the sky from auto a-holes. Some leftist drive electric cars. China is rapidly transitioning to electric cars unreliant on oil from nations led by Dictators and Theftocracies. President Biden has stepped back into the over-mature, senile fossil fuel vehicle league to help his re-election chances in 2024. Instead of leading the way to newer, faster, cheaper forms of transport that don't harm the atmosphere or ecosphere on land and sea the President has opted for quick, dirty and dangerous fiscal intercourse with dictators.

https://restofworld.org/2022/indonesia-china-ev-nickel/

Republicans are supposed to be the party of innovators, tech leadership and economic good sense. Implementing those characteristics have been lacking from Republican discourse the past decade or more in regard to energy. Democrats have exploited the failure of Republicans to lead from the front on energy upgrades. President Biden fundamentally has a fake green energy policy that returns to Dictatorial and authoritarian oil doghouses as soon as it can to prop up the nation's economy. Republicans lucked out with the discovery of fracking to revitalize the nation's oil fields yet even that isn't enough for either party that sucks up oil from any source at all. Yet if that is so one might ask, why not Russia?

The economic war on Russia to support the Democratic Party's proxy war on Russia via Ukraine is quite costly the nation and the world economy. When Mr. Biden is gone and a Republican President takes charge it is likely that the Ukraine investment policy of Democrats will slow or end and the world economy can have a chance to seek the light at the end of the tunnel. The world ecosphere though will be irreparably harmed by then and the breakdown of national energy leadership will perhaps continue to lean on dirty oil and dictators as the ecosphere degrades.

Respect Homo Marriage Act and Fugitive Slave Act of 1850

  In the end of their lame Duck session dominating the legislative branch federal Democrats verified their main concern was homo marriage and queering up the nation. They failed to get substantial ecospheric and economic integration accomplished leaving the planet's sustainability index in continuing decline. The rich owners of Wall Street were apparently concerned as marionettes with having the zero population growth plan to saturate the world with the legal fiction of homo marriage firmed up so far as to shift social reality through force of law into their evil demesne.

Homosexuals do not marry, biologically speaking. Marriage has been redefined to mean any coupling of human adults (for the time being) with vows legally reinforced. That paradigm is socially divisive and a source of political turmoil even unto the point of wars and may have consequences ahead. Recognition of homo relationships that left sane marriage intact was the rational alternative. Like Latvia's advocacy that Ukraine attack Russia, it flunked practical reason.

Interesting is the actual legal mechanisms the Senate used to reinforce homosexual marriage. They will force the federal government to recognize the laws on marriage each state has even if they differ substantially. It is possible that some state will outlaw marriage and establish new relationship legally among adults that serve the same purpose that are not based upon fiction. Then Democrats may seek to pass a law to establish the 'equivalency of marriage' to cover the new legal paradigm.

The 'Respect Marriage Act' to disrespect marriage and promote a homosexual usurpation through legal pretense shall require Federal laws to follow individual state's laws in patchwork array presumably. One would imagine that the antebellum southern plutocrats would have loved such a law to compel federal authorities to return escaped slaves to states that allowed slavery (The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850). When Congress required all states to return escaped slaves they went a bridge too far.https://www.battlefields.org/learn/primary-sources/fugitive-slave-act#:~:text=Passed%20on%20September%2018%2C%201850,returning%2C%20and%20trying%20escaped%20slaves.

Fox News Moves toward fop-center of Mainstream Biased Broadcast Media

 Major broadcast media outlets are notoriously biased toward proprietary politics reflecting their alignment toward the Democrat Party agenda generally with Fox nominally toward Republican politics. Recently though it has taken to using thematic demotics usually associated with Democrat broadcast media spin, and that is rather surprising. I would guess the reason is their owner’s desire to reinforce retrograde fossil fuel development and anti-environmental regressivism.

The late Rush Limbaugh’s rational Achilles heel was his notable and profound failure to comprehend environmental challenges to human survival on Earth. Broad is the road that leads to destruction and narrow is the gate that leads to salvation; few there are in U.S. politics that find it. Fox may be doubling down on the political punk approach and urging more global greenhouse gassing industries because fossil fuel burning auto and truck engines continue to be the primary mover of most U.S. economic activity.

Anthropologically a human tool kit comprising a society’s means of working economic activity evolves. Directed economic activity is sometimes necessary when existential challenges demand focus from all of society to meet the challenges head-on and successfully. Changing the tool kit through directed laws and rules rather than letting it naturally evolve is where resistance arises from Fox and its ilk of sycophants of rich owners of the broadcast media. Leftist sycophants in the broadcast media need at least nominally support a conservative ecospheric economic approach to appeal to its base of support that is at any rate brainwashed into believing that racism is the basic political divide in the nation rather than economics.

Failing to adapting the national economic tool kit to ecospheric challenges in order to use tools that return short term profit builds the disaster base for the ongoing seventh mass extinction. Directed free enterprise with incentives to evolve and adapt the tool kit is the preferred way to proceed. Corporatocracy seems to pursue short term profits and long-term social control with broadcast media support across the broadcast spectrum as their minions are bought and paid for to promote the agenda with maladroit political interpretation and straw men issues.

Cryptocurrency Failures Reflect Gresham’s Law

The failure of FTX and troubles with other cryptocurrencies reflect Gresham’s Law; bad money drives out good.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/blockfi-files-for-bankruptcy-as-many-expected-cites-ftx-collapse-for-its-troubles

With the profusion of cryptocurrencies it was inevitable that some would collapse. There are about 22,000 cryptocurrencies of which 9,314 are active. In the United States 1,600 banks were allowed to issue paper money from 1793 to 1861 with 7,000 different bank notes. Some of those notes were of little value. Eventually the United States became the exclusive issuer of paper money. Between 1863 and 1929 “thousands of banks” were allowed to issue notes that resembled federal greenbacks on official paper before that too ended. It should be noted that 1929 was a notable year for the economic crash getting under way.

It wouldn't be too surprising if cryptocurrencies also followed the evolution of paper money in as much as some may be transacted with some sort of federal seal to guarantee their value. Financial fraud, tax evasion and money laundering may be implicit facets of crypto currencies. Like the Internet tech dot-com crash of 2000-1 one would expect shakeouts of the field periodically.

Speaker Pelosi was a leader while public debt rose from 6 to 31 trillion dollars

When Nancy Pelosi first became speaker of the House in 2007 U.S. public debt was about 6 trillion dollars. During her final term in 2022 public debt had reached 31 trillion and the environmental challenges were not substantially defeated. Ecology work for land and sea management were deficient on software and hardware axes. Though she wasn’t in office all of those years she was her party’s leader and that indicates something about the political economy she was associated with. It is time for a change though Speaker McCarthy may not be the leader one might like.

There seems to be some ambiguity concerning the actual amount of public debt in 2007-2008. The numbers range from 6.3 trillion to 10 trillion dollars.

The Center of TIme (a poem)


The center of time
moved past quicker rhyme
glued itself to signs
right down the street

powers ripe just heat
run roughshod to beat
anything it meets;
a network elite

mass extinction tide
the bad override
won’t be denied
surface of the seas

tuned in to boom
each investor tomb
anyone’s room
is Wall Street’s last breeze.

Seventh Mass Extinction Making Solid Gaines

A lot of species- thousands, are going extinct each year because of environmental changes. Human activity causes those changes. A science paper reported that this is actually the 7th mass extinction in the Earth’s history, rather than the 6th, because one at the end of the Ediacaran period occurred that wasn’t previously regarded as such.

https://scitechdaily.com/earth-might-be-experiencing-7th-mass-extinction-not-6th-a-true-decrease-in-the-abundance-of-organisms/

One of the basic causes of mass extinctions is atmospheric composition changes, like lower oxygen levels. Destroying habitat can occur from chemical changes as well as bulldozers, auto exhaust etc. Human activities are well on the way to making the world sort of uninhabitable for many species including humans. That isn’t anything to worry about of course, if the rich can just get better tax cuts.

Early and Modern Premillennialism

  Modern premillennialism became popular in the middle of the 1800s, yet it's been around since the second century at least. The church fathers were roughly evenly divided amidst post-millennialism and pre-millennialism. The most notable point to me though is that it seems like a lot of people miss out on Jesus' prophecies concerning the first century events leading to the fall of Jerusalem etc. He was the most accurate prophet of all (he should of course being God the Son). He said all of the things would be fulfilled before the last of the present generation and they were. That doesn't mean that other prophetic things he said were included in the first century prophecy fulfillment items though. Here is a decent brief paper on early premillennialists.

People Do Misunderstand Calvin and God's Omniscience, Omnipotentce and Pre-destination

 Calvin's ‘Institutes’ is a remarkable work. I believe many people today misunderstand the reformation movement and what the reformers thought about theology and the Bible. Paul wrote to the Ephesians (5:11) "Ephesians 5:11, KJV: And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them." Plainly Paul was referring to humans in a practical way; pagan society of the day had quite a lot of wickedness. Yet he wasn't especially making theological research into predestination, omniscience and omnipotence and what that means as far as everything that is created. Incidentally McGee was of the opinion that what the Bible calls 'evil' are natural events (i.e. earthquakes, floods (including the one that drowned the first human civilization except for Noah and his family); the Bible refers to human evil, not as evil, rather as wickedness. It is probable that many people misunderstand the cosmological mechanics of the Universe that God created, and how he created it. Calvin was a believer in determinism, election and so forth and there are many opposed to that. They also tend to believe in salvation through works rather than grace.

The subject of predestination is fascinating and implied in the Bible numerous places. (ref. https://www.biblestudytools.com/.../what-does-the-bible...

In my opinion God being omnipotent and omniscient creates everything that exists including circumstances such as freedom that allow people to choose to do wickedness. Plainly the fallen human condition of original sin has changed the relationship of humans to God whom is perfect. He is the maker of pots and can break them if he wills that.

The topic is interesting cosmologically too. It seems that the Universe’s thermodynamics tend toward pre-destination on the largest scale as it was from the beginning giving a certain allotment of energy and then mass to exist and actualize all forms. The topic is fascinating and deep theologically and physically. One theoretical physicist speculated that a universe or Multiverse may exist where everything that can exist, already does-every possible Multiverse universe bit-and human minds with freedom switch between them with each thought, yet the Multiverse itself never changes, it is people choosing their own fate along possible world-lines.

The Revelation 22:10-12 “10And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. 11He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

12And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 13I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.”

That kind of statement is consistent with free will in a deterministic environment where individuals select their own fate. Yet there are thousands of points to consider about the power of God. I suppose he could create a Multiverse just in His thoughts, yet they have perhaps existed in His foreknowledge forever.

A quote from Calvin's 'Institutes'… https://www.ccel.org/ccel/calvin/institutes.v.xxiv.html

Thank God Before Eating Food

Animals eat food to input energy and remain alive; it is fuel for existence. Animals don’t give thanks to God before eating though. Acknowledging the provisioning of God through his grace is a way humans with a soul differentiate themselves from thankless animals.

If original sin, or rather the punishment for original sin was waveform collapse into entanglement in the steady state of three-dimensions in the Higgs Field that is a state that requires the input of energy molecules to remain alive, in order for humans to merit salvation or rather receive salvation through the work of the Holy Spirit, Jesus  Christ and the Father, they need to be spiritually awakened or reborn into the spirit. That is they have a spiritual dimension that did not exist when they were simply fallen animals.

Giving thanks to God before eating is a plain sign of being awoke in spirit.

Approaching End of Civilization; Nyet

Google has produced robots that can write their own code. Eventually that practice should evolve deception and programming vectors that allow insidious practices ad infinitum deleterious to human interests and those of human democracy. Quite likely gaming the system will let plutocratic insiders finesse society their way while manufacturing crises to control the populace. One cannot foreknow what effect that would have on the ecosphere or if the policy of those at the top of the programming food chain will let the masses continue to exist with a world of conceit placing everything at their feet including the moon and planets of the solar system.

Alaska has a new voting system that may require a mathematical statistician to understand. It seems like a gaming platform with consequences of voting or not voting for “second choices” that are challenging to calculate. It seems like a way for incumbents with name recognition to have an implicit edge, and the 2022, slow Alaska race for the U.S. Senate is an example of the corruption of the new system. The incumbent had an advantage in ranked choice voting.

Complexity and technology demand the masses be satiated with entertainment industries that are the equivalent of the bread and circuses of decadent imperial Rome. The masses will be indoctrinated in false historical consciousness ‘narratives’ reinforcing political agenda itineraries of the marionette political powers. It should not be passively blamed on predestination of the erroneous pre-tribulationist fundamentalists that misinterpret Christian eschatology parallel with that of many Muslims whom also misunderstand the Revelation and other eschatological scripture. The Dystopian novels 1984 and Brave New World are better choices for illuminating what their situation is, albeit with substantive upgrades to computing technologies and software that didn’t exist back in the day.

The actual end of human civilization probably will be humanity being slowly excised by big data programming iterations perfected by and upgraded with variations by robotic sentients. If Google hasn't personnel with Machiavellian subscript intentions of dominating the world it isn't improbable that those that emulate or abscond with code will eventually change it to evil purpose, even if like the inventor of machine guns, to try to benefit society by making weapons so terrible they should end war. nOne should just stop inventing weapons and artificial intelligence of course, yet the pay and personal benefits are so good people cannot resist.


Truth Theory part 4

  There are numerous truth theories. I prefer Quine’s disquotation theory of truth. Basically truth is an agreement between subject and object, or a way of abbreviating a list with quotes instead of enumerating all of the elements of a list. Someone asks if it is raining outside (paraphrasing one of Quine’s examples) and another replies, yes it is raining outside. Of course one need agree on what ‘outside’ means (such as locally in Pittsburgh rather than in the Amazonian rain forest), or one asks if all even numbers are greater than preceding odd numbers; one may say yes that’s true instead of enumerating all of the even and odd numbers that exist to prove the point. It is logically sound to say that Jesus is Truth, Biblically speaking, because as Creator of Everything God is the sole non-contingent Being. Everything else is relative and rather of a nominal character I would think since Universal monism is temporally divided into plural components aka ‘objects’ and event relationships.

Ranked Choice Voting may be a New Key to Corruption

 Alaska has a new voting system that imay require a mathematical statistician to understand. It seems like a gaming platform with consequences of voting or not voting for “second choices” challenging to calculate. It seems like a way for incumbents with name recognition to have an implicit edge, and the ongoing, slow Alaska race for the U.S. Senate is an example of the corruption of the new system. The incumbent has an advantage in ranked choice voting. It seems like counting some votes twice.

https://alaskapublic.org/2022/11/15/tshibaka-grows-her-slim-lead-in-alaskas-u-s-senate-race/

The challenger Kelly Tshibaka took more than 43% of the vote in the state and nearly all Republican votes although she and Lisa Murkowski, initially appointed by her father the former senator and then Governor both claim to be Republicans. Murkowskiy took most Democrat votes and will get more support when the Democrat candidate is eliminated in voting counting as Murkowski was the second choice of the few Democrats that actually voted for their own party candidate. Murkowski votes Democrat on all important social issues and also is pro-global warming gas development through fossil fuels, and is female so she is the Democrat’s choice who runs as an independent or Republican. The state Republican party supported Tshibaka.

In an election the winner ought to be the candidate that gets the most votes plainly. The ranked choice system muddies that and leaves voters uncertain about how to calculate or game the system by careful picking second through fifth choices to help their own first choice win even though they hate the rest of the field. To not vote for alternate ranked choices in some way counts against one’s own first choice.

Plutocrats are converting democracy to plutonomy and corporatocracy by degrees. Apparently social media statistically bans far more conservative political posts than liberal to such an extent that they actually influence elections. Something like 20% of independent voters voted to the left in 2020 because of social media skewers to the left creating more left supporting content. *(the data are difficult to confirm)

In corrupting a Democracy ranked choice voting seems like a good tool to make it more difficult for outsiders ever to get elected. Not only is it too costly and selected by factors other than competence or suitability, now it is also muddy as votes count in lesser degrees for some in accordance with how they are ranked. It reminds me of U.S. Constitution categories for some classes of Americans before it was amended when some citizens counted less than others for population counting purposes of the states.
