This is something that always bugged me, but now I see it as a more deliberate effort to kill human spirituality
I’ll get briefly into how this may tie into a bigger philosophical battle (which comes down to Tesla vs Einstein, as well as what’s crassly called “Eastern vs Western thinking”)
but I wanted to start with an example that I’ve had with me since the days I was a devout Catholic.
You may know the story of the Fatima Marian apparitions.
The *very* short version:
- the Virgin Mary reportedly appeared to 3 Catholic children multiple times in Fatima, Portugal in 1917.
- Mary met with the children regularly on the 13th of each month, then said to bring lots of people for a final miracle to prove the kids were telling the truth.
- On 13 October 1917 (their story now a huge deal) tens of thousands of people showed up
- It was reported that the sun began to dance in the sky & emit rays of color. Some stories say that - while it was soggy from rain - the sun appeared to zoom towards the earth & dried the ground & the people.
- Mary also reportedly told the children they needed to pray for Russia - this was 6 months before the Bolsheviks performed their massacre in Russia.
The Church didn’t recognize the Fatima events as “supernatural” until 1930.
But the Vatican & its propaganda is a whole other angle - as is the whole subject of Marian apparitions.
I have no opinion on the legitimacy & I haven’t been Catholic for over 15 years.
I want to focus on the skeptics & scientific “explanations”.
There are three types of “explanations”:
- Mass hysteria/seeing what you want to believe
- Looking at the sun caused mass vision problems
- there was atmospheric interference (either from the Sahara or the classic “swamp gases” causing a wavy effect)
I want to focus on this last one, because it - more than anything else - shows just how ridiculous the “skeptical” approach to things is.
So let’s say it was swamp gases or the Sahara that happened to impact the atmosphere.
At that exact time when the kids said a sign would occur.
Now, some skeptics laugh up their sleeve at religious people, & joke about how we’d all be dead if the sun moved all around - or the whole world would’ve seen it.
It boggles the mind just how insanely these people imagination.
If you were to believe in an entity powerful enough to *physically* move the sun, would it be outrageous to think it could break as many so-called “laws of nature” as it wanted?
Again, I don’t have a dog in this fight, but that has to be the STUPIDEST argument I’ve ever heard.
As for the mass hysteria/bias confirmation, I acknowledge that could be possible.
But I want to focus on the “it WuZ SuMtHiNg eXpLaiNaBLe” position.
If the atmospheric disturbance is truly their argument, you know what *isn’t* explainable?
The fact that a massive visual disruption of one of the most constant things in our life (the sun) occurred *exactly* when these children said there’d be a sign that everyone present would see.
Statistically, that timing is damn near incalculable.
But that’s glossed over.
They don’t consider that - if a Deity were to get involved - they might use a method that didn’t involve ACTUALLY moving the entire sun.
Why wouldn’t a Deity actually use natural effects PLUS timing?
If I’m a Deity, & I say “Show up at X at exactly this time & you’ll get a sign” - 10,000+ people then see something insanely rare occur at that time,
… & then some people go “YeAh bUt it wUz the sAhARa”, I’d have to declare them to be massive fucking idiots, or extremely disingenuous.
Kind of like the way some people seem to miss all the different faces Buyden has, or the whole C0VlD & Jab scam.
This leads me to the 2nd problem:
Modern Science’s worship of the Mechanical Universe
2/ Now: how does that tie in with Nikola Tesla vs Einstein?
First: the short answer (make sure you check out the video my good fren @DamonRiddle3 is QTing here):
3/ The nutshell of this is that at the beginning of the 20th century, Physicists had a choice between 2 paths
& THEY CHOSE THE WRONG ONE.
I’m not a physicist, but my understanding is that Einstein basically built upon & “improved” (heavy irony in my use of that word) Newtonian Physics.
For those who also aren’t physics people, you’re in luck: you have this dummy to explain it, dumbly 😂
Newton & Einstein’s physics models are also called “classical mechanics”. It is (as you can guess) very mechanical 😂
It’s good enough that it works with most of the stuff humans need to calculate (*or so we have been told*…more on that later). Supposedly, Newton invented calculus to see if he could measure the moon “falling” towards earth.
But as you get into larger & more abstract calculations, the model falls apart.
And so they have to (literally) MAKE UP constants to plug into their calculations, in order to make the math work.
Just a “we’ll just put this in there & figure it out later”… then proceeded to never figure it out.
(I am *hugely* oversimplifying, of course)
You want to know what one of those “constants” is?
The so-called “Dark Matter”. They literally have NO PROOF that it exists, but they need it to make the math work. (H/T again to @DamonRiddle3 - any errors are 150% my lack of understanding)
[FYI, this *does* connect to the Fatima stuff above - I’ll get there!]
So for the last century, we’ve used math that was “good enough”… but we Peons have been trying to solve a puzzle with half the pieces missing… & it’s not an accident.
I don’t need to tell you that technology (most notably Tesla’s) has been suppressed, as well as anti-gravity tech discovered by the German National Socialist Party waaaaaay back in the 1940s.
(I’ll link to some amazing threads by Mr Wolf & @1FreeInhabitant amazing threads on that subject below as well)
