"Balls!", cried the Queen. "If I had to, I could be King." And the Jester laughed because he had to.

Let's play the semantics game, shall we? "Not all that Wierwille writes will necessarily be God-breathed." So, this implies that some parts are and some parts aren't. Can you tell me which parts are and which parts aren't? (I wasn't paying real close attention the first time around.)

I still struggle with fractions at least 2/7 of the time.

That's what I was afraid of.

Do you add it through that little hole in the top?

Well, then we need some traveling music.

Soooo, you're basing your assertion on 40 year old, secondhand hearsay?

Archeologists recently uncovered an ancient coffee shop of sorts. Among the items they found were 3 coffee cups inscribed with the names Timbo, DJ Silas and Paulie. They also found an ancient percolator, the basket still intact and filled with what appeared to be the remnants of moldy, stretched coffee.

Probably more like: "uh huh, uh huh."...(If I placate this bozo, maybe I can end this nonsense.)

I remember, once, while doing some yard work in the hot August sun, stumbling upon an Easter egg the kids missed on the Easter egg hunt. Gave a whole new meaning to "stink".

What are the odds water is wet?

That's not all he was unable to control.

And yet you do.

OMG! You are one funny guy.

I have no desire to read the book. If there are "MANY", as you say, a listing of them should be a simple task.

examples?

I'm curious. How do you "stretch" a coffee pod?

Only my humility prevents me from boasting of my perfection.

"Gurdjieff wrote that he supported himself during his travels with odd jobs and trading schemes (one of which he described as dyeing hedgerow birds yellow and selling them as canaries)."...Source: Wikipedia Yep, I definitely see the similarity to VPW.

My take on this is somewhat of a blend between the two ideas. The core essence of human nature remains the same. (Maslow's hierarchy and all that jazz.) That doesn't negate the fact that all species evolve (or de-evolve, as DEVO posited) over time. However, as society is becoming progressively unable to meet those needs, AI is increasingly being used to try to fill the voids. For consideration, I offer THIS piece about a current trend in Japan. Accept it, reject it, doesn't matter. This is the reality we are dealing with in the modern world.

Are we not men? We are Devo

If you're counting on its historical accuracy, you may be setting yourself up for disappointment.

Would we be required to shout "Hallelujah!"? I'm not much of a shouter. Would an announcement on Twitter be Okay?

We saw this during the height of the pandemic with megachurches. Maybe not completely replaced but certainly modified in their approach.
