Proof of God by Scientists
But who will understand? The Large Hadron Collider is about to get naughty. It is going to punch a hole in our concept of physics and go and prove God. This will be amusing. Here is the link.
Big Smile
I have a very big smile on my face and am going on a boys night out, hope you all have a great night.

Dinner with Friends
I had dinner with friends tonight. I met with the newlyweds at a Brazilian restaurant. I really enjoy Brazilian food and being completely broke it was convenient to have someone feed me in such a lovely setting. For all my readers I do wish to remind you that I have many friends who take very lovely care of me. I want for nothing and want very little, I am quite happy at present.
Do you ever wonder what I am like in person if you don't know me personally? I mean people read this blog from countries I have never been to. I just wonder if you ever wonder what type of person I am in person? When I read someones blog I wonder about what they are like. In some manner, I believe reading another person's blog give me a better understanding of them than if I met them in person first. It is on blogs that we reveal more than we do to strangers because we know our readers are strangers.
You might have to read that last sentence twice. What if I am actually a 20 year old girl and this is my alter ego, a 51 year old man. What if this were some sort of experiment, a college paper. What if it was a way to create a fake persona for someone in the witness protection program? What if this were an FBI blog used to validate some lie for an informant? The possibilities are endless; but, the truth is that it is just me.
Perhaps you wonder why I write this blog. There was a reason in the beginning and I achieved it; but, I kept writing. Maybe so that some readers might think they begin to understand how I think, this ain't gonna do that. LOL. Maybe because I love to write, partly. Perhaps because I like the fact that I can give people quicker access to certain news stories that they might have missed, yeah that too. I am an old stage manager and if you have an audience, you should have a show.
I write it mostly because if there are readers than my writing has some value. I write because there are readers, because of you, the ones I know and the ones I don't.
So where do we go to from here? We have talked about so many things, corruption, pensions, God, sin, love, the odd things going on in the world. The two most popular posts were on "Carl Jung, Jim Carey and DMT" or something like that and "Pastor Carol Daniels". The one on Pastor Daniels was not typical of my writing as far as subject matter goes, it just really effected me. The one on Jung was a little more typical.
Should I write about the most popular things, cater to my audience? No, I cannot do that, this is for me too and not just the audience, we both have to win. It comes down to why do you read what I write in the first place. If you read it is either because you like the vagaries of what you will get or because you have a reason to read it.
I was on a plane with a man, he was the chair of Philosophy at a university in the east. He introduced himself and attempted to prove something to me that he had just given a speech about before the worlds philosophers (apparently they have conferences too). He didn't know it; but, he had lost the argument the minute he began it; but, it was a long flight so I decided to have some fun. 20 minutes before the six hour flight ended, I decided it was time to reel him in. He never saw it coming and had to concede that what he had just spoke on was illogical. Political Scientists should be philosophers too, organizing society should require that one be philosophical and that is what we train to do.
I don't know what to write about anymore. I enjoy writing about God the most. I have an award for Constitutional Law. I always compare reading the bible to reading the constitution, we shouldn't reword them, we should try to understand what they meant at the time. I read the bible to try and figure out the context of what occurred.
How bout we just see where this goes?

A New Direction
I am getting ready to take a new direction in my life. Starting is strange, to actually create my new life. I look at the world around me and wonder what is to come next. I have absolutely no fear about it, just anticipation. I am a little excited again. I need a new challenge.

What is behind this
The European Union has some interesting ideas about limiting movement in Europe. They want to outlaw gas powered cars by 2050. Why does this not surprise me? Oh yeah, because there are those who would seek to restrict your movement; but, there is more going on.
The Europeans are being pushed to their edge, they are being taught to hate the European Union and their currency. Why would anyone want that result? Better yet, why do the politicians go along this way knowing it will result in their elimination?
Let me put it another way, why did Gadahfi say to the world that he would kill everyone in his country to remain in power, the world couldn't stand by and allow that. Why say it in the first place and ensure that the rebels will never stop and that other countries will get involved?
In both cases and even here in the United States we see politiicians who believe they are entitled to rule because they are part of the in crowd and you are not. They believe being a part of the in crowd is all you need to be entitled to be in charge and the rules of the game are changing, they are not the ones changing the rules and they don't understand that. Do you not know how confused all the arab leaders are to see such an uprising?
What we are seeing is not an attack on democracy or freedom fighters, we are seeing an end to leadership reliance, to the cult of personality. Sounds exciting except what do you replace it with. The problem was not having leaders it was having ones who wanted to be and pandered to our biases and bigotry. Bigots do not get good leadership and neither do greedy societies because both will put up with so much that the whole society fails.

Interesting Fact About Death
Try reading this article. It is about what happens when you die. It is amazing how many people have near death experiences and what the nurses see. Doesn't it seem strange that they have a limited number of experiences. How come nobody has a near death experience where they meet a tree or go on a boat trip or go to Disneyland? Many of these people are not even Christians.
If you do not believe in an afterlife, what would you expect the images to be that you see when you are dying? Clearly people see images as they die and when they die, why are they all the same? How come nobody imagines that they are a fox or another person? How come the images are never about reincarnation even for those who believe in reincarnation?
How come aethiests have these same visions and often come back completely changed? Why don't we see more variety in what these visions are, it doesn't matter what people's background is, where they lived or what they believed. It doesn't matter that many of these people had never heard of a near death experience, they still had it and the nurses get used to it.
What aetheists say when the near death experience is about is oxygen deprivation. Okay; but why the same visions. They will then say it is because these people had heard similar stories; but, many of them didn't know about near death experiences. And it still doesn't explain why we don't hear about people imagining they are reawakening as a new person or turn into babies in the sky. That would make more sense if there were no God. Have a great night.
