Bobby Fischer may have been the best chess player of all time. His I.Q. was 180 and after winning the world chess title in 1972 he rather lost a rational reason to exist. The withdrawal from chess and steady decline of his life experience is presented fairly well here. An alternative theory is that Fischer is the archetype before/after instance of the effect of mind-altering drugs. The personality change is stark-ditch the suit and the haircut. Travelling to California after the victory may have made a Fischer a target for the left who spiked a drink perhaps, although the K.G.B. or others that didn't like the Sunday-best rational Fischer in the Watergate and withdrawal from Vietnam year may have thought he was another Kissinger and the personification of everything evil about America. Fischer with his mind on vacation abandoned the world chess title and learned to hate everything about the nation of leftists that denied his rational, methodical undrugged approach to life. I think the left never trusted Fischer though he wore everything except a drug rug to seem mellow. Yet another theory is that Fischer with a load of cash got hooked on watching Gilligan's island reruns and only choose to play Spaskii again in order to afford to watch reruns of Miami Vice.
Internet
blogging is a pure vehicle for free expression; a necessary element for
competition of ideas. In many nations known as banana republics, authoritarian,
narco-states, corporatist, oligarchic, monarchical etc free internet blogging is
not permitted without retribution. Mob rule by those not well endowed
intellectually requires mob and/or police repression of free speech, free
thought and uncoerced Internet blogging. Often the broadcast media is an
accessory in trimming individuals expressing antipathetic to corrupt
establishment or start-up mobs.
Internet
blogging is less than two decades old. In world political history that’s
something like the wink of an eye. Many bloggers with an excess of brevity in
their wit have found Facebook to be their corporate controlled political weapon
of choice yet where else can the world’s writers and political activist
yearning to write free without follow up trim by police and mob thugs or
terrorists with a microphone owned by the rich or a communist party place their
work without fear of it being censored to deleted?
Democracy
is in effect the better political form for the competition of ideas. In the
marketplace of ideas publicly spirited citizens can read and select the best
ideas for infrastructure development-not just the least objectionable slop
foisted by a corrupt ruling class such as start the U.S. economy with fossil fuel energy
development (boom and bust, globalism, greenhouse gassing, ancient technology,
foreign advantage in auto production etc).
Though many
nations from Red neo-Corporatist China to North Korea, Venezuela, Iran, and in some ways the U.S.A. (corporations have fine print in
their blog sites that let them delete accounts for objectionable to them
language without notice) are not completely tolerant of free expression for
bloggers it seems like some nation ought to be. A nation that guaranteed
blogging Internet posts with cloud storage forever and free would not only get
a copy of all of the best ideas posted on Earth (and from the space nation and
elsewhere eventually) it would support the liberation of the global body
politic from the snares of mobocracy, erosion of their national sovereignty
where democracy by and for the people exists or may develop and be a generally
respectable item. Even the largest Internet corporations are corporations
subject to numerous forms of political and economic leverage. Internet posts
simply aren’t secure if posted solely at those sites, and in some Muslim
nations one’s liberty may be in jeopardy for posting dissentient ideas.
A
border security canal for drought relief is a new reason to start shovel ready
jobs on an old idea; using siphons and solar powered pumps to bring water in a
pipeline to the continental divide around Deming New Mexico and let it run downhill
to the GulfCoast and back to the Pacific
in a partially covered canal. The canal would let water evaporate and be
condensed under glass or plastic along part of the distance creating a lot of
fresh water for irrigation, drinking and so forth. The trouble is the Democrat
Party is the existentialist party of drugs and homosexuality concentrating
wealth They have downsized interest in work. Life is a soap opera-they want
positions.
Creating
shovel ready jobs with actual shovels and heavy equipment to build a green
border control zone along the Mexican border ought to be better than a fence
and should unite Republicans and Democrats in a project that would actually get
something done about the long-term drought problem in the Southwest and illegal
border crossing from Mexico. The trouble is that the globalist congresspersons
are more concerned about the rights of millionaire-billionaire homosexuals than
the economic interests of all of the people of the U.S.A.
The
only fair way to assure that one isn’t being discriminated against is the
annual income-that doesn’t lie and is objective while concerns such as those of
the Miami Dolphins and harassment are about millionaires rather than the poor
or middle class. The Democrat Party forgot economic facts -who is keeping the
rich tethered and tensioned keeping the rich from becoming global royalty these
decades? Democrats seemingly don’t want the U.S.A. to be a prosperous
healthy nation with full employment and a green accent. Instead the electorate
is supposed to conform to an ethics of entertainment tonight.
Extended unemployment must be good for something. At least the aesthetic values of camping in Alaska are interesting. Beats riding a bike across the Gulf Coast in August-117 degrees at Tyler Texas via Shreveport! It would be better if the Obama administration had a clue about creating work in the U.S.A. through reform of capitalism though. I suggested several years ago that the government triage unemployment time and give the most tax credits for hiring those unemployed longest. The President forgot that incentive in trying to get corporations to hire the unemployed. The Democrat Party seems deficient in practical economic reasoning these decades.
Light from distant space-time quasars
is warped passing select galaxies and made visible as if passing through a lens
or traveling around the galaxy because of warped space-time. The expansion of
space that was slowing down yet eventually changed to begin accelerating about
5 billion years ago may have a similar cause. At image credit N.A.S.A. least one would believe
they might because each involves space as an actual substance of some sort or
at least the existence of mass and energy in volume called space behave
somewhat as if space had it's own nature.
It seems reasonable to speculate that
quantum entanglement in mass quantities may be able to slow photons a little
and create an apparent space drag around galaxies. Alternatively quantum
effects of large bodies of mass boost photons a little as they encounter
concentrated fields of mass and ricochet energized.
I wonder if the acceleration of
space-time in the Universe has a related causality to that of galactic lensing. Spacetime phenomena present quite a few puzzles to consider.
Alaskan
dog races are something of a colonial era anachronism of the days when supremacists
ruled the waves. Dominating slave-dog’s pulling white men across vast distances
of socially separate regions without encounters with slums and people unlike
themselves there are many fans. Beside our objective perspective on the
exploitation of animals for the sport of prosperous if not rich by worldly
standards men (and a few women) how on others view the game?
Interview with an Alien
Question; what do you think of the Yukon Quest and
Iditarod races?
Alien; that was a race? I was minding my own business observing a
dog team in the cool minus 40 degree arctic night moving along the Yukon River on
a drug smuggling training course that stopped now and then to excavate a cache
of chemicals in a package from hidden in the river ice. The dog punisher used a
g.p.s. tool to locate packets of illegal drugs to smuggle to consumers downstream.
With 70 million Americans using illegal drugs and a lot of demand on the North Slope safe
smuggling routes are being explored. So an executive action led me to cut out
the heart of the driver, feed it to his dogs and liberate the oppressed dogs to
run free returning to the call of the wild.
Answer; Yes that was a race contestant. I suppose it’s possible that
someone supplements their sky- high annual earnings to keep an apartheid style
way of life with a better Cadillac pick-up truck with off-road drug transporting,
yet that’s no excuse for breaking the laws of the Yukon Territory or Alaska stalking anyone.
Alien-You must be from New York.
-End of Interview
If
we don’t find too much in such an interview to inform us of public opinion about
the Yukon Quest and Iditarod dog races at least it is known that the Yukon
Quest finish line was moved outside Whitehorse this year some 30 miles because
of thin ice on the river and that the Iditarod-the late spring race may move it’s
starting line 360 miles north to Fairbanks in order to find some snow. Global
warming is taking a toll on the race even more than the change of diet for many
of the dogs.
While
people were starving in Africa dog drivers used to feed their dog’s King
salmon from the rivers before the runs largely collapsed. Now some of the slave
teams are reduced to eating garbage from restaurant plates collected in
buckets, run through a dishwasher and fed by the bucket load to the
down-trodden beasts of burden.
Maybe
the New York Times should run the headline Democracy
is Dead- Long Live Corporatism! Minstrels of the herd believe the N.Y.
Times. The Obama administration has given full federal support to homosexual
marriage including spousal exemption from testimony in trial and so forth
raising several legal and moral issues to occupy the nation’s political time
rather than alternative stuff like finding competent economic policy. http://www.cnn.com/2014/02/08/politics/holder-same-sex-marriage-rights/
Is it
reasonable to compel Christians and others to pay taxes to a godless atheist
government with support for official sin in direct violation of the principle
of church and state? Is it fair to exempt homosexuals from testimony and to
give insurance and other financial benefits to those perpetrating that practice
and exclude single, celibate citizens from sharing equal existential protection
of the law? Should anyone be denied the right not to testify about anyone that
is non-self (all except for certain organic relationships involving cellular
synthesis), or be given special legal status in relation to sexual activity or
lust (Pres. Jimmy Carter admitted to “lust in the heart)?
How
the nation came to be in such a state of moral decline is simple to answer. The
policy has been percolating in Boston several decades and has
metastasized with the election of President Obama. In 1999 I read a book on
economics by Lester Thurow who was than at M.I.T. He described four primary
forms of administration economic policy tracks and correctly predicted the
maintenance policy of the following Bush II administration. Thurow also offered
the opinion that traditional social structures needed to be changed. Maybe the
economic reality is within you rather than outside you. That is, dumbing-down
the people may decrease the political problem of incompetent administration economic
policy.
Homosexual marriage is just one step on the
way down that road of complete social revolution empowering elites and
corrupting civil rights that some economists and social elites believe inhibit
certain kinds of economic restructuring. Probably the nation has just
experienced round one in the drift toward satanic scientific socialism that is
not an acceptable substitute for environmentally sane ecological economics
policy with downsizing of capitalism in the corporate form and conservation of
moral principles.
The
queering of the Federal government presents several challenges to those seeking
to advocate for U.S. influence on foreign
affairs. Federal policy is morally indefensible and it is difficult to expect
the second and third world to lay down for a butch commercial globalist power.
With the cold war resolved and the prospects for peace and prosperity ahead
good the Democrat Party had to find new ways to divide the nation and create
global danger.
It
was Mohammahdan Caliph Omar circa 640 A.D. who ordered the destruction of the
great library of AlexandriaEgypt. The Obama
administration’s enigmatic policies have also brought conflict and blood to North Africa and over the Middle East with a growth in Al Qaeda
and Taliban stock respectively in Iraq and Afghanistan. Between book-burning
Moslems and morality burning democrats how can a Christian advocate for U.S. foreign policy as a moral
force for good?
For
that matter how can any moral individual reasonably or persuasively argue that
the trend of U.S. foreign policy isn’t more of a follow Britannic leadership as
a new age Phoenicia commercial Carthage trading with every nation and
recognizing any sort of male, female or group marriage sort of friendly trade
materialism instead of a more ecologically and egalitarian conservative and
moral nationalism?
Merging
with a media morphological soundtrackin into an Eleatic political economy of
doped, syncopated sardines in a slathered, greasy matrix isn’t a preferred
direction for democracy
Why
the U.S. government selected
policies of pragmatic depravity and defeat instead of rational and moral
prosperity with respect for spiritual values is uncertain. If the economic and
moral foundations of the United States are trashed too far it could
be challenging to recover. Federal moral apostasy is a terribly thing to
correct.
The epistle to the Galatians
is perhaps the most remarkable of Paul’s existing letters that have made it
down to us through time inasmuch as the Apostle seems at times wroth with the
Galatians or Gauls of a Roman district that may or may not have been Celts. If
these church goers were actual Gauls it mike be a good idea to change the word Galaxy
to something else, such as Nuraghe in order that we do not seem to
encourage a bad end along with the Universe in some sort of Apocalypse.3:1-”
O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should
not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set
forth, crucified among you?” That
may well have been the Gnostic mistake. It does happen that what is wisdom for
man is foolishness to God.
Philo of Alexandria
presented most of the Gnostic metaphysical paradigm before the crucifixion of
the Lord in 30 A.D. The Apostle John may well have encountered those ideas in
followers in Ephesus. It is possible that the Gnostic heretical field of
scholarship wasn’t terribly well received in Jerusalem either. Thus exporting the pursuit of the Gnostic
topic to Antioch, Ephesus
and elsewhere that religion had a lively public interest and was received with
a modicum of tolerance might have been a logical course. Gnosticism in the
first century may have camouflaged itself within the garb of traditional
Judaism better even than Christianity for a time socially speaking.
Gnostics were people thought
of as regarding themselves as having deeper metaphysical knowledge of reality
than ordinary people. Some claimed that Jesus was actually a Gnostic traveler-a
sort of astral projector perhaps to other planes of existence around this
Universe. It is still a tempting yet silly doctrine popular on late-night radio
shows and perhaps with dope smokers of the U.S.A. along with Bigfoot and extra-terrestrials
manipulating the Obama administration’s homosexual policies.
Christian disputes with
Gnostics occurred because Gnostics tended usurp Christian doctrine and
insinuate their own. They might believe in dualism such that the material world
is evil and was made by an evil demi-urge. While some might regard original sin
in a fallen Universe of thermodynamics instead of eternal spiritual perfection
as another way of saying that, the practical consequence of false belief are
substantial.
Gnostics tended to deny
Jehovah as the true God and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ to overcome sin for
those of faith. The emanationist (simplified for Christian practical purposes
to’ let their be light’) theories of Gnostics are though coincident with some
aspects of logical insight into the nature of the material Universe such as the
big bang, inflaton or even a cyclical Universe expanding and flowing through a
thermodynamic process.
Paradoxically those that
believe the Universe had no real beginning-just proximal ones such as time=0
located at a temporal hourglass very small singularity before an oppositely
sequenced pre-Universe shrinking down in scale, share the idea with Christians
that all things that exist are ultimately based in the eternal with temporality
being expression of phases within eternity. At this point physical cosmology research
hasn’t evolved terribly deeply into physical reality and temporality of a
hypothetical multiverse within an eternal context replete with conservation of
energy and ordination by God.
Paul as a student of
Gamaliel might have been somewhat learned himself in Jewish mysticism. The contemporary
of Jesus Christ, Philo of Alexandria, was marginally mainstream and perhaps not
unknown to Jewish theology training centers. By the time of the third century Plotinus-a
famous student of Ammonius Saccus developed a beautiful, logically satisfying,
mystic, theologically simplified cosmology that is similar in many respect to
contemporary cosmological paradigms including origin from a singularity or One
(En Sof-the ineffable infinite) with universal and broken form theories
acceptable to Plato and quantum mechanics.
It is a bit of a paradox
that the mysterious, spiritual Kabbalah shares with Mohammadanism the term for
spirit –Ka that the Egyptians used as
well as ba or shelter. Hence one gets
the spirit house or Ka-ba such as at Mecca and the Kabballah going even further in honor of a
transcending spirit. The spirit house of Mecca existed long before Mohammad’s syncretistic
enterprise.
The danger of simply
becoming intellectually lost as an individual self-standing within the created
material world is a danger that Lucifer succumbed to. Since everything exists
and one may reason within the given steady-state field or any existing
alternate spiritual field, there is a temptation for the ego to alienate itself
from the transcendent God and the opportunity to renormalize from sin in the
contingent field of being and try to exist forever as a contingent being or
even a nearly omnipotent contingent being without God imbued with a false
consciousness denying His existence. That effort is in disregard to the actual
facts of being-that God is all-in-all and the Son is the sole way to
renormalize the estranged-by-sin relationship.
A generic emantionist
paradigm for cosmological origin of quanta of any type from a state of being ‘void
and without form’ requires some emanation of virtual quanta or
proto-particles/strings/membranes etc from an existing field containing or
heteronymous with the void. Math isn’t theoretically of much help in describing
the non-dimensional infinite, indivisible field that emanates with quantum
uncertainty perhaps on occasion into a void.
Mathematics represents
some form of coordinate system-even a theoretical one with scalable dimensions.
Without coordinates or quanta it would be challenging to use math references for
describing one infinite field with no extension and all possible dimensions
unactualized prior to emanation from super-positions decohered into forms in a virgin
formless void. Theological contemplation might be easier, although it’s better
and simpler to recognize Jesus Christ as the only way to understand God containing/promulgating
the one field engendering any potential or actual Universe.
Ultimately Plotinus’
paradigm is mostly a horse-shoe toss description of the theosophical state of
the cosmos without either modern technical terms. Plotinus did not provide
Christian information about how to be saved from the fallen realm of materially
imperfect forms and original sin that is implicit in the temporal world. Living
a couple centuries after the Lord he may have felt that wasn’t his role. The
age was philosophically confused enough and just the canonized Bible such as
the Muratorian fragment provided was a plain and accurate guide to eternity.
