  1. Thinking of up, TWI didn't like the crucifix. A cross, and horizontal beam and vertical beam. We are and upright being. We walk on two legs. That is unique. Horizontal beams could represent the earth, vertical is getting our inner being aligned. The beams cross near our heart. There's a lot in this symbol. An "UP" would be in the vertical beam.
  2. In Genesis, Heavens has to do with water, and the people could only describe with what they saw with their eyes. And they didn't have light pollution and iphones distracting them. However, what is written is poetry, and that structure of this poetic writing might lead one to conclude different ideas if taken literally.
  3. Maybe it's the wrong term. But the "thread" was describing how older generations take advantage of younger ones, young minds. Cult leaders can be older, but that's certainly not the rule. The transition from dependent to independent may be what's in focus. An example can be found in universities, targeting impressionable young minds. So naturally, why so moldable as betray everything gleaned in the decades before?
  4. There may be psychological or emotion associations with the cosmology . . . the Bible is not a science book . . . This would be a projection of the collective psyche of a specific people, trying to understand their inner universe, as opposed to the physical one.
  5. It was a pile of olives. He died on a skull. That's kinda neat.
  6. He also stood on a Hill, got high before getting high.
  7. Right, So Jesus left. Into clouds. The Holy Spirt is here. Capital H. Capital S. To guide The Body? to the all truth? Jesus is the truth. Jesus is not here but the Holy Spirit is so there is a presence on earth. They and the Father are One. So he's present. It's the clouds that are most important here. That's where are focus is, that's where are heads need to be.
  8. So maybe by going UP, it was a way for Jesus to mike drop?
  9. Einstein used Brownian motion to prove the existence of the atom and predict behavior. No fancy technology. Confoundingly simple. So simple you wonder why others didn't think of it first.
  10. I wonder who taught Einstein to beyond? Warped thinking sometimes works out. Unless it doesn't. But taking notes is curious . . . for rote memory? Certainly not to find new patterns . . .
  11. I have a theory . . . I think maybe The Bible is much older than The Way International. Maybe even older than George Washington. Time is another dimension. (I'm sure Mike is familiar with Einstein's Telescope . . . he'll figure it out)
  12. I don't think "Literal" is descriptive enough to describe The Wayfer. There's more than that . . . or less . . . really. I need a better word.
  13. Right so UP must be psychologically. One of those dimensions mentioned in another thread.
  14. I was listening to someone, a Catholic, briefly discuss how there are words used to describe items discussed in the bible, like the trinity. He was saying in this in context of how Protestants will point out how, for example, the word "trinity" is not in the Bible - When they talk to Catholics By Protestants he may have meant fundamentalists, since I think Protestants use the word Trinity, but that was an example.
  15. So Jesus is UP there? But to someone in China's perspective, they'd have to look down? (Through the earth) Does he move with earth's orbit to maintain UP relative to certain individuals? But not others? Soooo many questions . . .
  16. The I's are clever. Especially taking into account the sociopath stare. Points 1 and 2. Targeting the youth. That's why they swung the spoon. These steps needed to be sped up. Kids don't have the psychology available to make certain decisions. Their reactions are unfiltered and don't conform to expectations. Ageism. Similar in universities. Older generation indoctrinate younger ones. Is every generation raised without any guidance from their family of origin? It's like followers just vaporize out of thin air. . . . and then stuff happens. Yeah the rest of the points are fascinating.
  17. Utopia is the story of the Tower of Babel and its cult following. Out of a famous book. It splintered. In A Clockwork Orange's dystopia, Alex steps forward, volunteers, signs paperwork . . . this is symbolism by the author/director. Squid Game is a story on Netflix. Volunteers only. These stories are warnings, aren't they? I was listening to a lady on youtube last night. I was listening to her equalize good with evil and motivate her followers. Monsters there too, yes.
  18. The purpose of the Imperial Harems of the Ottoman Empire were to produce an heir. Of course, many were produced. It was understood the siblings would commit fratricide via political means. One would remain in the end and claim the right to rule, having proven to have developed the needed and ruthless to skills. This helped an Empire last hundreds of years without the civil wars their European counterparts faced. In an organization where there the daily motivation is centered around becoming the One, there can only be One. If that spot is taken by someone else, how do you now motivate yourself each day? And since murder isn't happening in TWI . . . splinters . . . because perfection, build utopia, as agreed to on the Green Card.
  19. I'm going to fail at articulating this back to you here. If you love anything or anyone you don't do whatever you want. You do what's best for them. And I think self respect is involved. But I imagine VPW emphasized love in such a way if you didn't nod and agree you felt you were being unloving and hurtful. . . And if you agree once, agreeing twice is easier, and then doing the things now in your head is easier. There's two parties making decisions here. He could do whatever he wanted. You had to conform. Why agree to that dynamic? . . . Because he's been allowed to become a primary if not only source of social validation. In his BS phrase he's suggesting you'll receive love if you agree with him. But you won't get that, you'll get the pleasure of the thought of love . . . An addictive dopamine hit. (Dopamine, when what you need is serotonin)
  20. If a day is a thousand years and a thousand years is a day, Wouldn't 3D space be similar? Think of how cell biology utilizing surface area or Euclidean geometry makes the same volume seeming infinitely bigger?
  21. I think the little gods stuff is from gnostism, meaning this stuff has been around thousands of years. Suggesting it's simply a natural trap for any person, of any background. It appears to make choices obvious. Certain results are expected. No weighing of options and making sacrifices. Decisions are hard. But this is lazy black and white thinking.
  22. Right, paradoxes in other threads got me thinking about decision-making and sometimes we humans like choices to be black and white. That takes maturity and sounds like effort. So anyway, some humor:
  23. Nice. I'm hoping to get a new amygdala. Was looking for a donor.
