the catholic church is all hypocrisy and fraud, look at the way cardinal ratzinger who became pope benedict the sixteenth endorsed the inquisition's treatment of galileo
“ the church at the time of galileo kept much more closely to reason than did galileo himself, and she took into consideration the ethical and social consequences of galileo's teaching too. her verdict against galileo was rational and just, and the revision of this verdict can be justified only on the grounds of what is politically opportune ”
the above quote is by paul
feyerabend, who i don't disagree with entirely, not in the context of galileo, but his rejection of universal methodological rules
cardinal ratzinger “quoted this quote” approvingly (being the most senior person in the congregation of arseholes !)
ratzinger being pope was bad mistake for the catholic church, being heavily gay and mentally toxic, tho with some charisma !, but they are doomed through hierarchical rigidity, the cardinal system seems incapable of electing anyone young enough to be be effective and not still bound in pre ww2 views :o)

the estrogen might be saving him from the usual autistic spectrum fate (collapsing health) as he gets older !
i think he's doing the estrogen for a health reason
wonder what form estrogen he's using?
maybe he was having bad weight loss?
evan shaw asks
for curiosities sake, how is pantheism illogical?
my reply
i got quite interested in pantheism because of the very brutal and murderous way the catholic church executed giordano bruno, basically for pantheist views ! (and being successful at promulgating them lol)
the problem with pantheism is a rather subtle theological and philosophical point, the question to which everything is in identity with and excluded from god !
neo-advaita and non-duality are sorta a crimped pan theism and i guess the current physics and astrophysics with its attempts at a “theory of everything” is more directly pan theist
so the pan theist argument or view is that the universe is god and i guess in a more general sense that existance is god
but generally in my observation existance is not god but the exclusion of god, a sort of parallelism to god, not entirely not of but basically excluded
it's the identity of ourselves with god in existance and non existance that is important and this is the basic mystical and poetic view point !
of course the masses bleat whatever they are told and pollute the world with their atrocious rubbish, but this is the nature of reality and existance ................... : o(

the higgs boson is an important puzzle piece, but it's still just a particle in a larger system. another effect that causes, not the first cause.
my
reply
an effect of what, causing what? contextless generalities have the faintest heft of what comes prior to first causes but that's about it :o)
weight requires meaningful context :o)
now to make sense of this you need context : o) and there is none :o)
evan shaw replies
well i'd say its an effect of Purpose, and apparently it causes mass. but it's part of the equation, not the equation itself.
my reply
well it validates the “standard model” of physics as being basically correct, so in that sense is “part of the equation”, however the issue of the equation itself as it pertains to “creation” is how such a coherent working system can arise since obviously, unlike biological phenomena it cannot have evolved since there is no mechanism for it, but must have winked out and into existence as one of a multitude of possible states, the inconceivably overwhelming majority of which have NO capacity to develop or lay the ground conditions for the development of something which can self observe !
our present universe can self observe through giving rise to conditions of physics which enable biological evolution
that one state amongst an infinite multitude of non self observing states can exist has a parallelism with infinity and god but is still a dead end imo and doesn't relate as a union of physics/astro physics with the afore mentioned, such a union would validate pantheism which is a theological and heterodox error
heraclitus was talking in an inspired and quite coherent fashion about god and infinity, yet had the traditional greek (at the time) view of how the universe and physics was, which seems ludicrous to our modern understanding
tho we have very different approaches, i don't feel we are in disagreement, since what we think comes from some native sense or sympathy to what it is about and not the normal estranged human condition which leads them to blather all sorts of unseeing nonsense :o)
so i think it's one of these you can and can't say, is and is not of infinity and god, the usual self-destroying and self concealing recursive loop :o( :o)

actually to be fair to brad i was thinking as much of the new pope francis and the catholic church as him
brad's wimpishness, hedonism and mediocre talents (my god what a tin ear ! ;o) along with some authenticity lack the virulence and malevolence of the catholic church at the height of its powers (it's a has been now)
so i guess that's two sorts of fake, institutional malevolence versus personal incompetence and flakery : o)

the open secret
by evan shaw
all is quiet in the valley of ilm
goethe tosses sand across wet ink
ruby wax sealed without a care,
he leans back in chair, - - and
drifts out the nearby window
rotating above, in constant motion
lunar trots that luminous path
as a fleet of clouds move away
“ancient chaldeans charted sky to learn,
the north star takes turns.”
he grabs brown coat, places hand
atop shakespeare bust, then heads to
the white swan. seated at a round table,
wilhelm meister manuscript by side,
schiller joins. and pours a glass of rhine wine:
“what flows up within, i shall begin, --
using chain that runs through
ye dissect the intellect, since time immemorial
hidden source it has kept. as elusive as
mnemosyne's daughters, it stays.
how do you unveil its ways?”
“each is given a shifting crystal ball
at birth. we turn it this way and that,
amused here, puzzled by inscription there.
the crystal itself never changes, just shows its
many sides. look at it, but put it aside,
and just be, for now.”
lady von lorenz, hops on goethe's lap:
“the one that eludes name
some sages dare proclaim
built this exploration game”
“yea as above, so the smallest speck
look at all the ways it interconnects.”
“tell me, where lies purpose?”
“a long-held desire grabs your attention.
water seeds; climb a tree!
so like zacchaeus you may see.
that the threads we weave,
last for eternity.”
all was quiet in the valley of ilm
and so, -- while candle dripped
goethe dreamed he found the urpflanze.

interestingly the spinal cord
has non visual photoreceptors in which means the cells in it can respond to sunlight and i think that getting some strong sunlight on the lower back helps with lower back problems !
also the brain and testicles have these photoreceptors, and strong sun on the head improves mood (don't get sunstroke !) and in the case of the testicles it increases the testosterone levels which stops the formation of breasts and really improves cardiovascular function !
“ the human gene OPN3 encodes opsin 3 (encephalopsin, panopsin) bBlackshaw s and snyder sh, 1999). it is strongly expressed in brain and testis with features of a classical photoreceptive opsin. the human gene OPN5 encodes opsin 5, which is expressed in the eye, brain, testes, and spinal cord (tarttelin ee et al, 2003)
”
a correspondent asks
sounds plausible, but if the photoreceptors are in the brain and spinal cord, how does light reach them?
my reply
i think there’s two avenues, some light does go through bone, not much, but possibly enough to be picked up by photoreceptors, the beauty of strong sunlight is it has very high energy levels and a broad spectrum of light including red and near-infrared, so who knows what goes through, but the photoreceptors will be tuned to that of course by evolution, possibly to produce growth factors over summer?
the other avenue is that the sutures in the skull and connective tissue in the spine act as a sort of light pipe, this is actually a fact because there is a transcranial red and near-infrared therapy for stroke, neurological/degenerative disease and traumatic brain injury that uses red/infrared leds strapped over the sutures on the skull that brings very significant improvement and is due to the red/infrared energising the mitochondria in the outer portions of the brain
unfortunately when the treatment is stopped the beneficial effect is lost !
i have wondered if men going bald or having crew cuts is chasing this effect?
that testosterone production in the testicles is responsive to sunlight seems to be known by the bodybuilding community, which is not the macho driven activity one might think, but low testosterone and growth hormone men who are partly feminized (hence the female emphasis on display!) looking for improvements in their hormones
“ wright’s
law, first formulated in 1936
it holds that progress increases with experience — specifically, that each percent increase in cumulative production in a given industry results in a fixed percentage improvement in production efficiency ”
you can see this with flat panel computer monitors, the huge increases in functionality and price/performance with massively increasing volume over about 6 years : o)
i was going to say “capitalism at its best” but it's also a fundamental dynamic of socialist economies with their restricted product ranges but huge volumes of production : o )

i was waiting in the supermarket queue at the ulverstone woolworths and startled the young man next to me by cracking a bag of ice down on the handrail to rest my game shoulder...............
he said that surprising loud noises really startled him and made him jump and i said, yeah, same for me and he said he zoned out in carparks and i knew he was a kindred spirit.................
he was holding a packet/small tray of donuts with a clear plastic over them, they had garishly coloured icing and specks and he was saying how good these were
i pointed to the red coloured dots saying this colour sent a friend of mine's daughter up the wall
and he said yeah , same thing happened to him as a child and he also mentioned he now had diabetes (he was 25 ?) which he hinted was unfair
i suggested he go to a health store and see if he could get some chromium
he said yeah, it had been recommended to him
he moved to the counter, didn't have enough cash and had to go out to his car to get more .................
after checking out i passed him and we smiled at each other and no doubt i will never see him again !
