Religion Simplified

As much as Religion is illogical to many, let’s look at some historical details to disapprove thesis of God’s nonexistence. This will be mainly directed to Christians or those open to Christianity. Only undisputable facts will be brought forward.

Was Jesus a historical figure from 2000 years ago? Yes, many writings and artifacts support his existence.  Was Jesus born as a regular human? Yes. Was he performing miracles in his times? Acts not explained even by today’s science? Yes, they are many independent sources stating such acts (let’s remember Bible is not one document but rather many documents from different sources put together and called Bible). Let’s also remember of many other resources proving above statement. Was Jesus killed? Yes, overwhelming yes. Again many sources prove that. And now question arises: with the power of miracles that he was capable of, could he avoid being killed? Logical answer is Yes! The question arises: Why did he allow get himself killed? If he was a logical person, compatible in his mind to us humans, but with all that extra powers, he would easily avoid death.

Let’s look at the options here:

1.       Jesus was a regular person that managed to control power of miracles that science does not understand and let himself to be killed for no reason.

2.       Jesus was a regular person that managed to control power of miracles that science does not understand and let himself to be killed for reasons unknown to our worldly existence.

And the correct answer is… hmm…

With the statue that Jesus possessed 2000 years ago in the land of Judea, was his death accidental or premeditated?... Surely he did not die in car accident. Let’s attempt to analyze potential Jesus Adversary in the rhyme his teachings (that is what get him killed – his teachings). Jesus offers one solution for men, while his Adversary opposes it. Let’s not forget that Jesus teachings brought about power of major religion - Christianity. Logically, Adversary to gain control over the people, has two options: one is to pretend that Jesus is irrelevant, second is to become Jesus. There is also a third option where Adversary can revile the agenda and see if people would like it. My guess is that in spite of all the technological life style of today, ultimately we would reject it, so the third option remains hidden. Realistically we are left with second option, where Adversary will try to pretend that he is Jesus. And here we are getting into the last chapter of the Bible: Revelations… Now considering that we are Christians and we see Bible as a prophetic document, let’s go back to the earlier question, “why Jesus let himself get killed?” what is the reason? Here are some of the possibilities:

Resurrection is achievable for humans

Christ had to die for our sins, as a part of some unknown to us mechanism of how God’s Universe operates

Jesus death as a future (about now) proof of what happened 2000 years ago

Wheel – Greatest Discovery of Human Kind or is it?

What is wheel? - In an essence it is a device that helps to move material in straight lines with the use of circular motion. Wheel’s main function is to overcome friction created by external forces.

First documented archeological evidence of the wheel is dated to about 4000BC. Presence of high intelligence on this planet can be dated to significantly more than 10 thousand years – fossils can prove that (you will rarely see any of them in the museum, as without bending backwards, today’s, linear science can’t explain their existence).

Archeological facts, not circulated by mainstream science, suggest that they where couple of stages of development of intelligent life. Real evidence does not support linear growth from cavemen to today’s man. I say more - our science is at odds with itself, as an Entropy and Evolution having the same source of existence, provide completely opposite results. Entropy in time makes things to go from organized state to disorganized, while Evolution according to Darwinism goes from disorganized to organized – which is it? Perhaps is time for the science to throw the towel and start considering theories that are being discredited by high priests of science (like Dr. Michio Kaku and others…).

Going back to wheel… At present time our technological civilization relies heavily on existence of wheel, which is an executor of commands given by intelligence to perform physical operations, what is important however is not the process of fulfilling command, but rather its outcome.

Now the truth is that we had high civilization on this planet beyond 10,000 years ago capable of great accomplishments even by today’s standards – no evidence of wheel observed. Let’s consider also much younger time period of presumed construction of pyramid of Giza – no evidence of the wheel. After that period till present we use wheel. Taking to an account impossible accomplishments observed in our far past with no use of wheel and future of the science – do we really need wheel? Perhaps unseen yet science will allow us to affect matter directly without the use of intermediate means? Seems that our distant ancestors where able to do it.

To support last statement, I should mention that they are circles of archeologists that bring up the idea, that Our Civilization started as High Civilization than for what whatever reason it degraded itself (War?) after that It rebuild itself to some level and got flattened by something again (Deluge?), later come up in few parts of the planet (like Egypt – legacy civilization), that slowly degenerated and few hundred years ago started anew. And here we are wandering about our nonlinear past.

Is life on this planet accidental?

There is not enough of Time and Universe of necessary mathematical probabilities of creating Homo-Sapiens as a pure chance – by now we should be past arguing that point – if you do not accept that, there is no reason to read this any farther. 

More and more seeps into the mainstream word “Creation”… along with some unexplainable facts from our own Solar System there is some old and maybe even new (but suppressed) evidence that we are not alone in this vast Universe. So now if not accident, who created us? We like to call ourselves intelligent species, so whoever created us must have been at least as intelligent. Word God comes to mind…

Now are we bugs in that Creation or supreme beings? The evidence so is for the latter, so let’s put ourselves in the shoes of the Creator… we created something… is it a bug or intelligence… will we leave it on its own or will we care for it? It is rhetorical – yes we will care for it. And just like we would like our creations to take live of their own getting into more and more complicated, programmable devices, we should assume, Creator - may it be God - also would like us to learn how to conduct ourselves without self-destruction through time and space… all we have to do, is to follow prerogatives of the programming language – and this one is not called Fortran or Basic, it is in each one of us in the form of knowing what is right and wrong. Some may see this programming language abbreviated as a Bible. Now like most programming languages Bible also has revisions, officially they are two revisions; Old Testament revision was for the jungle creatures – learning how to survive,  New Testament revision was issued for mature species – not only survive, but be ethical. When we are born, we are pre-programmed and do not need to read the Bible to know how to act. Inside our souls we know what is right or wrong without the need for interpretation.

…since this monolog took an engineering turn… let’s go farther; God and Physics – it is important to know, that there is a feedback loop in everything. How God knows what each one of his creations is doing?  How is he affecting them? What are his tools? Just like we have in engineering slave-master relationship, we also can’t expect to be able to reach to the God level. We can only create asymptotic approximation or view of the Reality in the forms of ever changing Theories in physics. So here I am trying to bring some understanding of it…, its implications…

Going back almost 100 years of history of physics, we thought that we knew Everything… just this little tiny undiscovered part called Quantum Mechanics… fast forward to today, we are learning that Everything is Quantum Mechanics (this would bring down pillar authorities in Physics, so that information is not in the official science textbooks yet… but getting there with more and more evidence). How does this relate to the subject of God? Remember Higgs Field and “God Particle”? Theorem disliked by physicist as it brings into the question Laws of Thermodynamics. Looks though that vacuum is not empty (wow! we had Ether Theory over 100 years ago! are we going back? But… but… that would mean that Hobble, Einstein and others where wrong!). 

And yet we have mounting evidence of another revelation: “Entanglement and Non-Locality” – this is big! Not getting into the details it appears that all the particles in the Universe are aware of all other particles in the Universe and yes! Instantaneously! And do not look for the full and correct interpretation of this in Wikipedia, as it follows mainstream - statistical majority takes over – if we followed mainstream, we would get to the iphone version z10000 not realizing that we could use non-local entanglement technology for the next version of the phone. But I forgot! We are following mainstream… o well, so much for a better phone.

This is only skimming the top; we have here new interpretation of Thermodynamics, where energy seems to be free, Vacuum that is not empty, Non-Local Entanglement which by the way in the New Science considers also axis of Time (You can throw away grandfather paradox…). If we add to this also Biological aspect of the Physics where We, God’s Creation are standing between God and Physics and also can affect environment somehow - through our brain, thoughts… (This has been documented and undisputed), this bring some light on what God’s interface to us looks like.

In conclusion: level of beautiful and unbridled complication of our environment including us, is proof enough that there is a Grand Purpose and we are part of it. Looks also like we are not just passive components in this, but with the evidence of tools that we can tap into, we seem to be integral and active part of the Creation.

Robber Barons left with their toys to a bigger Sand Box

I watched recent S&A (investment firm) video about the perceived sources of the economical problems in America. The blame is basically placed back and forth on the greed and entailments of the upper and lower class including middle class – that’s where mainly the focus is - all comes down to the deterioration of the ethics. I agree with that statement wholeheartedly – it is a disease, but now how do you treat it? There is no effort in that direction coming from S&A, the message is “You can’t fix it, so ride it. Here are the investment ideas” – they (S&A), being an investment firm are after all part of the problem, no blame there. We are reminded that citizen’s self-reliance in the ethical manner rather than governmental help kept America going in previous century. So yes, there is actually veiled solution – get rid of the entitlements – Social Security should be a think of the past. They seem to be however forgetting that Social Security is not governmental benefit, it is earned! But if it would disappear along with other Social Programs, it would give the boost to the economy and the Wall Street would continue its “winning” streak… until next collapse… we should start seeing the pattern here.

OK, enough of the rumbling…

We agree that the problem is in the deterioration of the ethics. Is it only recent? The answer is No, Robber Barons where the first champions. They build America on the backs of the rest of Americans, not allowing them to exercise their right to be unethical in the ever growing push to collect more and more capital. But there were enough breadcrumbs for everybody after all. What is different today? We still have Robber Barons, but the difference is that they build their capital on the backs of the rest of the World, leaving Americans behind – remember self-reliance – was it always so? How about calling Rubber Baron’s breadcrumbs entitlements? So let’s look again, was American economical success based on self-reliance and ethics? I think it is safe to say that unregulated actions of the few reach men concentrated in one country build their capital pulling along the rest of the country, now-a- days the same few reach people are building their capital but the difference is that it is done globally – other people are getting breadcrumbs. With the new technological tools and in the new geo-political environment in virtually one common economy, the engine running the System does not have to be concentrated in one country.

Robber Barons moved to a bigger Sand Box

Word “Ethics” was mentioned many times. Looks like we are on the right track to fix the problem (not only economical…). But what is ethic? Is it ethical to have continuously investment gains that are a lot bigger than actual economical growth? (This can be maximum of 3%). I think we should go back to the spiritual understanding what is ethical rather than try to quantify it. Large forum honest discussion that would include all aspects of life should be conducted and always continued, as the forefront in the Medias – this should replace Reality Shows.  I believe we rely on other people definitions rather than through personal understanding of what ethics is – we make it easy on ourselves. It is time to get off our butts and start talking about things other than football.
