Christian Prophesy / Science Faction

“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God”

Revelation 21: 1

^“For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me. And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me, but raise them up at the last day.”

John 6:38

I’ve often contemplated Christian prophesy regarding the afterlife.  According to what I was taught God is going to create a new Heaven and a new Earth, then we are going to be reincarnated there with new ‘perfect’ physical bodies and we will live eternally in peace and love in paradise.

Sounds really nice doesn’t it.  But how would this work?

According to some theories of ‘the Field’, (presented in Lynne McTaggart’s excellent book on the topic called ‘The Field’) that all permeating sea of energy classically known as aether (a more modern name for it is the Zero Point Field), our consciousness is stored in space rather than in our brains. Our brains are the command centre for bodily functions but our minds are stored in the field.  Our brains a simply act as transceivers that pick up our unique signatures or consciousness frequencies.  Another theory suggests that our minds are holographically encoded into our DNA, either way it equates to the same thing i.e. it is possible to reincarnate physically through science. This backs up Christian prophesy.

If these field theories are on the right track then perhaps if our DNA is used to make exact clones of ourselves we can reattach our consciousness to our new bodies. In which case perhaps we ourselves will eventually create this technology where a person can be reborn physically and have their thoughts reattached.

Side Note: This field theory could explain how twins pick up each others thoughts, how psychics pick up information as perhaps they can auto-tune into different frequencies, picking up extra information from solid objects through touch.  It could also explain why people feel they have been reincarnated, perhaps their frequency band is almost identical to a person who lived in a different time.

So back to Christian prophesy.

Perhaps we have watchers (angels, aliens, ancient humans it really doesn’t matter) who, like our governments, track us  thorough some form of id system, except their idea of an id is simply DNA. Our governments have record of every man woman and child born for centuries so if there is a higher order of immortal beings watching over us, it is not too difficult to imagine how they might get a hold of our DNA at some point during our lives. Maybe it’s one of the jobs of our our immortal ‘guardian angels”. Perhaps they have tracked every human being since we first appeared on this planet. If they seeded us like it suggests in Genesis 1:26, ‘Let us make them in our image’ then they may well have an interest in tracking us like this.

So there you have it… once we blow ourselves up and it’s game over, the aliens in their star-ship will go find another ‘m’ class planet and reincarnate us there using DNA and field theories.

Can’t wait, let’s just hope the weather is better than it is in Ireland here today!

The Grand Unified Theory: Cosmic Current and Light Waves

What if matter itself draws energy from space in order to exist resulting in an equal but opposite gravitation force? Perhaps gravitation is simply a flow of zero point energy towards vortexes in space caused by energy hungry subatomic point particles.

Have you ever wondered about what causes gravity? It is perfectly valid to assume that it is an effect, caused by massive objects, on the space-time continuum, but what is the nature of the space-time continuum and why does matter have an effect on it.

From what we understand, matter is made up of configurations of tiny particles called atoms. Atoms have a nucleus at their core and are “orbited” by point particles called electrons. The nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons, which are also made up of point particles, similar to electrons, called quarks. All matter is therefore made up entirely of these point particles or fermions which by themselves have no size.

Huh?

So where do electrons and quarks get their energy from to give matter its volumetric properties? What if the tiny point particles, which make up matter, require fuel to exhibit these properties? What if matter itself draws energy from space in order to exist, like flames draw energy from the oxygen in the air in order to burn?

Let’s assume that we exist in an all-permeating sea of energy, call it the Zero Point Field (ZPF), Aether or simply the electromagnetic medium. Whatever you call it, there is good reason to believe this field exists (casimir effect, electromagnetic wave propagation etc.). If we do exist in such a sea of energy, then it is plausible that gravity may be simply a flow of energy towards vortexes in space caused by energy consuming subatomic particles.

Gravity would therefore behave in a manner analogous to water flowing towards a plug hole in a sink, or air towards the nozzle of an active vacuum cleaner. If this is the case then subatomic particles can be thought of as tiny vortexes in space, and thus Gravity can be thought of as the combined effect of zillions of these vortexes drawing energy in concert with one another. Therefore, the denser an entity is, the more point particles there are in it, thus the bigger the energy requirement to sustain the hungry matter it is made of, and thus the bigger the gravitational pull it exerts.

In summary, gravitation could be defined as a current in the fabric of space towards an entity, which the speed of flow is directly proportional to the number of point particles in that entity, and inversely proportional to the distance from the entity.

If gravitational fields are simply currents in space, then what is light, or more specifically, electromagnetic radiation? If gravity is current in space, and space is an electromagnetic medium, then perhaps light waves are simply waves through that same medium.

Image from www.lapsura.com

Consider this analogy: if a stone is dropped in flowing water waves are produced, the speed of these waves will be affected by any current observed in the water, however, they can still move upstream quite easily (especially when the current is weak). Perhaps light and gravity have a similar relationship. If gravity is a flow or current, then perhaps light is a wave through the same medium. If so, gravitational “lensing”, the bending of light as it passes by large entities in space, such as stars, could be explained in this way i.e. a wave passing through the medium is affected by the current in the medium at any point. In other words, light is affected by the draw (gravitational effect) matter has on the energy sea it travels through.

This would describe gravitation lensing in a very tidy way.

What is really interesting is that if our atoms are feeding from the same medium that light travels through, what kinds of weird effects would this have on our observation of light? According to Einstein, if we moving through space and we accelerate, we become more massive (E=mc2). Perhaps moving through space causes the matter we’re made of to feed from space at a new rate. What if this new rate of burn has the side effect of making our atoms speed up or slow down affecting our perception of time???

Perhaps we do not need to enter the nth dimension to describe the physical universe after all and the Grand Unified Theory is as simple as it should be!

What goes up must come down!

“For every action there’s an equal but opposite reaction” – Isaac Newton’s Third Law of Motion

It’s always bothered me that Jesus went up in to heaven.

Why did he go up?

We have been taught that Heaven is not any particular place (not yet anyway, not until there’s a new Heaven and new Earth at least). I grew up learning that Heaven was a spiritual realm as opposed to the heavens which meant the sky and the rest of the universe.

If Jesus were going to some spiritual realm then why would he need to go up to get there? Surely he could just disappear or fade out or something, but to fly upwards sounds like a very non-spiritual thing to do. Why up? What was up there that he was going to, was it Heaven? Is there some sort of exit door that he was trying to get to?

Maybe, he was ascending to his getaway chariot!!!

Jesus' Ascension - Miniature from Rabbula Gospels (Mesopotamia, 6th century)

Isn’t there something very mechanical about the 6th century illustration of the ascension above, there seems to be Wheels / Thrones or Ophanim under Jesus and with the Angels wings and circle you have the winged sun disc, not too dissimilar to Ahsur or Ahuramazda (see the winged sun disc blog entry for more information on Winged Sund Discs and Ophanim). Of course this is just an artists impression but it’s one which I am very impressed with, as they employed the use of Wheels / Thrones and the Sun Disc imagery also. This is exactly how I pictured it.

Mark 16:19: So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.

Luke 24:51 While he blessed them, he parted from them and was carried up into heaven.

Acts 6:9 And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight.

I find it very interesting that he was carried up to a cloud which took him out of their sight. This sounds like it’s straight out of a super hero movie or an episode of Monkey (remember that, he used the cloud to get around)! My Stargate hat tells me that he had a cloaked vehicle in the cloud which he used to travel back to the mothership waiting in orbit. Ok I know it sounds fanciful, but isn’t it just as plausible as a person travelling upwards to a spiritual realm that we have no real proof of? At least this theory simply takes what was written literally and attempts to explain it.

Winged Sun Discs or Advanced Personal Transport Devices

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” – Arthur C. Clarke, ‘Profiles of The Future’, 1961

If you lived 2000 years ago and you saw a helicopter, how would you describe it?  Would it make a noise like galloping horses?  Would you describe it as having a scorpion’s tail? In the book of revelation there are what seem to be descriptions and thus prophesy about today’s machines described in the language and imagery of the time.

If we go further back in time there are more incredible descriptions of things such as the chariots of the gods.  The people of the time did their best to describe them by carving them into stone, writing about them, passing down stories about them etc.

The most interesting of these for me is the winged sun disc, which appears all over the world in ancient times (and in modern times too).  Very similar versions of this symbol appear in various countries in Mesoamerica (Toltec, Aztec, Mayan cultures) and the Middle East (Babylonian, Egyptian, Persion, Hebrew cultures).

In modern day Iran the Faravahar is a national symbol. The Faravahar is a winged sun disc with the primary god Ahura Mazda sitting in it or on top of it. The Faravahar is one of the best-known symbols of Zoroastrianism, and is said to represent a Fravashi or guardian angel.  This is a striking similarity between how Ahura Mazda sits in the Fravashi and how the Hebrew and Christian Cherubim sit inside the Ophanim or Wheels / Thrones, which are discussed below.

Ahuramazda Faravahar of Ancient Iran

Then there’s the winged sun disc of Ashur, a Sumerian god, the head deity of the Assyrian pantheon. Ashur is pictured as a man riding within a winged sun disc also (notice the spokes here within the disc). These spokes can be seen in Nimrud’s Steele also and in this author’s opinion represent rotary blades as opposed to rays of the sun.

Sumerian God Ashur Riding Within his Winged Sun Disc

There are thousands of depictions of winged sun discs in Egypt. An interesting correlation with Sumerian culture is that the original Egyptian rendering of Osiris is Ausur.  A striking resemblance to the name Ashur? Then there’s the Hindu God Surya, which bears resemblance to Assyria, the city named after Ashur. Depictions of Surya bear remarkable resemblance to the Greek gods riding on their Chariots of the Sun powered by winged horses.  Then there’s Ashtaroth, the grand duke of hell, depicted as a nude man with large wings. The similarities go on and on (if you want to get New Age there’s also Ashtar of the Galactic Federation of Light).

Winged Sun Disc on Ben Ben Stone found in Dashur, Egypt

Note: It is worth noting the “all seeing eyes” of Horus in the above image which is a description for the flying greek god  Helios the all seeing.  It is easy to observe the world from on high (I won’t digress into any conspiracy theories regarding the American dollar bill and the  illuminati).

There’s also Quetzalcoatl (try saying that under the influence of alcohol) of Mayan persuasion who is said to have civilized middle america with teachings about politics, farming etc. Very similar motives that Osiris had when he left Egypt and also very similar motives to that of the fallen ones mentioned in Enoch.  Following is an image of Quetzalcoatl in what seems to be a machine. Perhaps this is another view of the winged disc?

Quetzalcoatl in some sort of craft

Finally, let’s take a quick look at Ezekiel 1:15 in the Christian Bible

“This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like chrysolite, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel.  As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not turn about as the creatures went. Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around. When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose.  Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.”

What Ezekiel talks of here are known as Ophanim or Wheels / Thrones.  In Christianity these are a clasiffication of angel, which bears a striking resemblance to the Fravashi angels in Zoroastrian.

What is apparent to me is that the author was trying to describe some sort of flying machine:

• They sparkled like chrysolite so they were probably metallic
• Wheel within a wheel, perhaps some form of rotary blade, counter spinning for stability, they are often referred to as the ‘whirling wheels’ which is a good description of a rotary blade in operation.
• They could travel in all directions
• The moved with the living creatures (or moved the living creatures), because the creature was in the wheels!!!

My thoughts on the matter are that some advanced ancient civilization, be it indigenous or from another world, flew about in these flying machines which looked like great birds.  The pilot stood or sat in a circular platform on top of the bird and the wings/tail were used to balance the craft or maybe store fuel (hanging wings would give the craft great stability, try sticking 2 forks into either side of a cork hanging downward and you can balance the cork on the top of a pencil). Perhaps the wings were simply ornaments or a camouflage. Underneath the craft was a large rotary blade used to give the craft lift. If the craft was balanced correctly the pilot could simply lean in any of the four directions and the craft would move accordingly (a bit like the Hobgoblin in Spider-man).

Often people try to explain hieroglyphs as symbolism, when more often these hieroglyphs depict real scenes and real object (such as the advanced medical devices shown in the hieroglyphs in kom ombo).  The ancient people went to great trouble to record how their gods looked and how the travelled around. The hieroglyphs and carvings are detailed and span countries and oceans. They appear in mythology as chariots of the sun, they appear in Hebrew and Christian scripture also as wheels or thrones (a classification of angel, which is probably where the winged angel idea comes from). The Nazca lines also back up this theory as the people on the ground called out to their flying gods through markings on the ground that span huge areas and can only be seen from the air!

My conclusion is that if they are simple figments of some ancient storyteller’s imagination they had one hell of a marketing campaign!

Hitler’s Revenge on behalf of the Aryan Nephilim???

“They devoted the city to the LORD and destroyed with the sword every living thing in it–men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys.” – Joshua 6:21

I’ve often wondered are the Nephilim and the Aryan’s one and the same.  The earliest reference to the word can be seen 6th century Behistun inscription. If they are one and the same it opens up a major can of worms.

Earliest reference to Arya on Behistun inscription

The picture above depicts a god hovering over the Earth on a winged sun disc. Below on the Earth are giants managing smaller human slaves, a sinister scene. I will go into more detail on what these Sun Discs are in a later blog. Perhaps this depiction links the Aryan race to the Nephilim.

Hitler believed the Atlanteans were a superior genetic race with advanced technology and mixed with less pure humans after the flood.  He was obsessed with this culture replicating their buildings and donned himself with their symbolism.   Is it a coincidence that the Nazi symbol is held within a sun disc in the talons of an Eagle… a symbol representing  the parents of the Nephilim?

He blamed the Jews for the descruction of the Aryan culture and exacted revenge on them for it. But why?

If you think about it, you will see that this is backed up in the bible.  In Joshua 6:21 all the men women and children of the Nephilim race were wiped out because of the Jews. Perhaps this angered the gods?  Perhaps the fallen ones who mated with humas to produce the Nephilim planned to exact their revenge on the Jewish people that killed their children?  Perhaps this plan matured thousands of years later in Nazi Germany?

Did these ancient gods supply Hitler and the Germans with knowledge of technology during WWII (leading to the massive technological leap we have witnessed in the last 60 years, jet engines, computers, nuclear energy etc.) in exchange for revenge on the Jews? This revenge took the form of  an extermination, a response to the extermination that the Jews exacted on the Nephilim, Rephaim, Anakim etc. thousands of years earlier!

Here is my take on it:

1. The ancient Jews were used by E.T.s to take out the remnants of the Nephilim/Aryan race i.e. the ones left over from the great flood
2. The parents of the Nephilim used various peoples to oppress the Jews throughout the centuries, Egyptians, Romans, Arabs etc. to oppress and punish the people that foiled their original plan
3. They took their chance once they had an opportunity to wipe out the race through a powerful government in the middle of Europe in the 40s
4. They made an agreement with the German government to exchange technology for the systematic execution of the race that wiped out the Aryans, The Jewish People.
5. Another set of E.T.s assisted the US and Russians defeat the Germans and save the Jewish people from total annihilation
6. The US and Russians have made use of this technology to bring us forward by huge leaps and bounds in a technological sense

You might think that the above is simply conjecture, but as time goes on, more and more documentaries have been produced regarding the amazing technology that was developed by the Germans, this consisted of:

• The Jet Engine
• The V2 Space Rocket, the progenitor of all modern rockets
• The Stealth Fighter
• The Flying Saucer (UFO or should I say IFO, I for identified as opposed to unidentified) built in the Skoda factory
• Nuclear Fission Bombs

This is just the tip of the ice berg and the Russians and Americans took this technology and refined it for their own needs.

If the shoe fits…

The Great Cull

“My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days will be a hundred and twenty years” - Genesis 6:3

Before the flood people were living for approximately 1000 years.  So how do you reset the life span of an entire species?

Simple, take a samle set, modify them, kill everyone else and rebuild the population with the modified sample set.

If you read my entry on the Nephilim you will have some extra background on the reasoning behind the culling otherwise known as the flood or great deluge.  Basically the fallen ones (whose origins are irrelevant at this point) produced mighty offspring before the days of the flood.  These were the ‘men of renown,’ ‘giants’  and ‘heroes of old’ that are spoken about in the bible and our collective mythologies. These giants caused havoc on Earth. The usurped mans resources and in this author’s opinion are possibly behind the origin of slavery on Earth.  They needed men to produce food for them.  If this is true then one can understand how and why great monuments were set up by these giants i.e.

To set themselves up as gods so that men could pander to their every need offering all sorts of sacrifices to them.

Huge Stone at Quarry near Baalbek, Lebanon

This lead to a great inequity on Earth and so God’s messengers could no longer tolerate it, so they decided to reset Earth. So they found the ‘purest’ human they could find and took him and his family to modify their DNA so that we were limited to 120 years. The then wiped the earth clean and started again.  I guess each one of us can do a lot less damage in <120 years as opposed to <1000 years.

I always had trouble with this culling if it were humans being killed but when you consider that it may have been that humans were almost completely corrupted genetically and morally by these creatures it stands to reason that a good caretaker would step in and try and recreate the balance that was once present here on Earth.

It seems that God likes his balance and steps in when things go too far.  He did the same thing after the flood helping the Jews to beat the Nephilim once again through technology.  Perhaps he did the same thing during World War II when Hitler was taking out revenge on the Jews on behalf of the Aryan Nephilim?

So why was God’s spirit not willing to contend with humans for longer than 120 years?  Is it because the beings looking after us are subject to time?  This would make sense for God’s messengers who perhaps are physical beings with advanced technology beyond our understanding?

These are questions for another day!!!

The Nephilim

“The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.” – Genesis 6:4

In the Christian Bible we are made aware of the Nephilim from the very beginning. Genesis 6:4 speaks of Nephilim who are born of human females but who are Fathered by the sons of God. Who exactly the sons of God are is often the subject of debate, some think they are humans that are descended from the biblical Seth but most understand them to be God’s messengers or Angels. In my opinion it is clear that the sons of God are actually the disobedient rebellious fallen angels (which in my opinion are physical beings  with advanced technology possibly from another planet). Their offence was copulating with human females which resulted in the creation of the monstrous Nephilim race. The Nephilim tipped the natural balance of the Earth, which angered God as went to an awful lot of trouble to create that balance in the first place.

The Giant Nephilim and their Parents Enslaving Humans as seen in ancient Sumerian Relief in modern day Iraq.

Most ancient myths speak of Gods copulating with human females to produce heroes of great strength. In Irish or Celtic myth, the God of Light known as Lugh (pronounced Loo) has sex with a human female to produce the mighty Setanta. The adventures of Setanta are spoken of even today by the Irish. This myth is mirrored in Greek mythology where Zeus mated with the mortal Alcmene producing the mighty Heracles known as Hercules to the Romans.

The book of Enoch is an ancient text that is still used to this day by the The Ethiopian Orthodox Church who regard it as canonical. Fragments of it were found among the dead sea scrolls and it was quoted from in the New Testament in the Letter of Jude 1:14-15. The book is written by Enoch himself, who used to walk with God, and goes into great detail about the various offices of the angels (both obedient and disobedient).

In Enoch it is clear that it was the angels that mixed their genes with human females to produce the Nephilim. The book states that they lusted after human females, mated with them and took them as wives, however this does not preclude the fact that the act might have been performed artificially in some way. These fallen angels then taught man about farming, medicine, metallurgy, astronomy, astrology and much more. They also taught women how to beautify the eyes with make up (which is hilarious but thank God they didn’t teach it to men).

God was angered by this act as the immortal beings were not allowed to father children.

Personally, I think that this is to religion as the Grand Unified Theory is to physics. It links original sin to eating from the tree of knowledge and explains why the flood happened and why later Joshua was instructed to finish off the lines of the Nephilim.

Consider this theory:

Imagine a world where the humans of the time lived in harmony with nature. The reason they lived in harmony with nature is because they evolved here on this planet in balance with all other creatures. Perhaps we were always meant to be relatively simple Neanderthals with little need beyond survival. A beautiful species on a beautiful planet.

Imagine then a more advanced race (from another planet perhaps) mixing with this life form. What are the implications of this uplifting?

• It would increasing their brain capacity so that humans would become self conscious and given the knowledge of good and evil.
• Women may have increased pain in child birth due to unnaturally increased cranium size (Genesis 3:16).
• We would be stained with the genes of our ancestors, meaning original sin could be handed down from Father to Son.
• Longevity, the people of the bible lived for approximately 1000 years
• Cause a rift between God and some of his Angels

In my opinion it was this uplifting that was offensive to God and is the root of all our problems. There are stories of how the Nephilim, because of their size, began usurping all of mans resources, especially food and that eventually when the food ran out they began cannibalism.  Because of the inequities caused by this God decided to reset the planet and caused the flood.  So he selected as pure a human family as he could find and gathered them with the animals and then destroyed the surface of the earth.

Incidentally, at this point God also reduced our live span to approximately 120 years (amazingly accurate when you consider it was written over 2000 years ago).  The easiest way to do this for an entire species is to modify a small sample, kill the rest and repopulate using the modified set, which is exactly what happened according to Genesis.

So what are the Nephilim?  Ancient humans with advanced technology (Atlanteans, Osirians, Ayrians etc.) or beings from another planet or realm?

If the story is true then there was also a policing system for these beings and that is encouraging.

The Earth was a Formless Void!

“In the beginning God created heaven and earth. Now the earth was a formless void…” – Genesis 

‘In the beginning, the Earth was a formless void.’ This amazingly accurate statement was written down 4000-6000 years ago. We know that when our star was born the left over gas and particles orbiting it in space clumped togeer to form bigger and bigger chunks of matter, snowballing until we were left with the set of planets, moons and asteroids that make up our solar system today.

It is safe to say that in the beginning the Earth was indeed a formless void made up of gas and particles, which make the words in Genesis incredible given that the people of the time knew very little if anything about the nature of stars and planets. The wonderful accuracies of Genesis do not end there however. Following is the order of creation as set out by Genesis:

1. Light – The basic laws of the universe, electromagnetic radiation, gravity, inertia, time… E=mc^2
2. Water and Land – Before any life came to be on planet Earth, water and land formed
3. Vegetation – First form of observable (with the human eye) life, presumably on land and under water.
4. Solar and lunar cycle – We know at some point in time the moon was created from the Earth, possibly down to a asteroid collision. Because of this event the Earth has become a very stable place for life to form. The moon helps keep the Earth warm and gives it a steady wobble and rotation giving us the seasons and regular day and night.
5. Creatures: Fish, Birds and Land creatures
6. Man

Given the fact that the people of the time did not know anything about fossil research or carbon dating techniques it is again quite remarkable that they could know these things.

The picture painted by the six days of Genesis is an accurate synopsis of the story of evolution.

The One True Faith

“With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.”

- Steven Weinberg, The New York Times, April 20, 1999

Having been brought up Catholic, I have wrestled with faith for the 33 years that I am alive. I have never struggled with the core message of religion i.e. ‘love your neighbour as yourself,’ as I believe this to be the ultimate good teaching, what I do struggle with, however, is how this fundamental tenet can be overridden so that conflicts, caused by nuances in the interpretation of faith, can occur.

We live in a world where tiny differences of opinion cause mighty rifts between peoples. For example, in my own country of Ireland, the conflict between Protestants and Roman Catholics is a perfect example of how things can go terribly wrong.  The two religions differ on some minor points such as: Mary’s eternal virginity; whether or not Priests can forgive sins or not; and whether you are saved based on good works, which demonstrate faith, or faith, which is demonstrated by good works. Yet based on such minor differences, these two peoples, who believe in the core tenet of ‘love thy enemy,’ decided to ignore that rule when it suited them and treated each other with the utmost contempt for centuries.  It is nothing short of tragic madness and hypocrisy of the highest order.

I am not trying to pick on any particular religion or belief system; that is not what this blog is about; rather, it is simply about the merits of exploring the truth by investigating everything and believing absolutely nothing, without solid evidence. So if I could ask you to open your mind whilst reading the blog and try to blank out what society has taught you.

Consider the following statement:

THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUTH

This is true, however this is also the major failing of all religions as most believe that they are the one true way, therefore from their perspective everyone else is absolutely wrong. This is the root problem of all religious conflict.

However, it is also true that there are an infinite set of possible belief systems… at the moment there are several thousand variations of Christianity alone and with the help of individual discernment one could argue that there are 6 billion+ variations currently in existence.

With this in mind from a very basic understanding of algebra it can be shown that the chances of any one of these religions being the right one is practically zero!

For example,

1/1000 = 0.001

Therefore, even if there were only 1000 religions on Earth, it is very likely that YOU ARE WRONG about what you currently believe. I am not saying that you are wrong, but it is very possible that you are, and everyone with an IQ above 0 should acknowledge this!

Would you wager your house on a horse at odds of 1000/1?  If not, then why do most of us bet our lives on something that has much worse odds?

The point I am trying to make here is that believing you are 100% right without 100% evidence is very unwise.

The truly enlightened are those that know that they don’t know.
