In their heyday, webrings provided discoverability for groups of topical websites but also facilitated social aspects of the web before social media provided easy access to social graphs.
Today, there is increasing disillusionment with the proliferation of low effort posting that social media encourages. In dark corners of the internet, unenlightened by social media, there is an interest in creating decentralized webrings, and nostr seems to be to be a good way to get that started.
"In the beginning there was the word..." Our cosmic software cost 1 thing, a word. An utterance from God. God could've decided not to God.
This is what webrings are:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring
I'm using the graph theory concept of cliques to try to build webrings in nostr:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clique_(graph_theory)
It's easy to identify cliques in the nostr social graph and to do that within the subset of users who have a website in their profile. Then if all of the websites in a clique start to link to each other, a decentralized webring can emerge.
It's not that important, I just decided to sort them by size in the app that I'm developing. What I'm calling a ring is also a clique in graph theory terms, and since there are thousands of cliques in the social graph for a typical user, most of them aren't very interesting. I think it is interesting to see the largest rings a user is in, and many of the smallest ones are interesting as well because they highlight an unlikely interaction that occurred between a small group of people.
You know it

Wow. Amazing👌🏻. So you're not a Pilton(er) per se😜. As I say, I've only been twice, had tickets another 2 times but unfortunately, life got in the way😕. During them 5 days it is genuinely the best place on earth. I did however tend to go a bit too hard on arrival on the Wednesday🙄😂. And this is the gods honest truth. I know a lad who literally stayed up for the whole five days while being there. He didn't have to bunk in. He had to bunk out😳😂. The whole thing was being dismantled but he was still there and there was no "Official" exit😬😂.
We can. It’s called nullification and requires the states asserting their rights under the 10th amendment.

Holy fucking word salad nonsense Batman - “especially potent influence on the mitochondria…” WTF 😂
I think some fundamental rights must be guaranteed regardless of what the majority wants and that’s usually the purpose of a Constitution, however when it comes to pass bills and policies it’s unclear to me what would be a better system than a majority system. The problem though is that bills aren’t currently passed by the majority. Electing representatives through majority voting isn’t the same as majority voting of bills. Representatives are too easily corrupted and/or mislead the voters regarding their intentions. Most of what is passed, the majority doesn’t actually want. We need more direct #democracy and/or random selection of representatives.
Logging onto Damus after someone called me antisemitic yesterday (when I didn’t mention any Semitic peoples or ethnoreligions whatsoever he just thought I did because ??? God only knows!!!)) for my opinion that wiping out all discussion of religion in the public sphere would mean that talking about minority religious groups getting persecuted would no longer happen (but they would still be persecuted hence making it a genocidal culture killing kind of evil as shit thing to consider) and seeing people posting screenshots of mein kampf saying it’s “sound wisdom” …. Once again. Some of you people are very much so not smart! No need for you to apologize to me for being an idiot though that is more so you’re problem than mine 😂

I imagine their access to high-intensity experiences and sort of cathartic group activities was severely restricted compared to today.
You can hear amplified music whenever you want, cranked as loud as you want. Go to a packed football stadium or rave or drive a fast car.
These dudes were slowly strolling around in powered wigs and apparently everything was sepia colored and silent. Aside from signing up for a naval battle, the most intense experience you could get was going to a concert hall and having a stage full of strings blasted at your face.
I guarantee you those Victorians were moshing. At least in spirit.
100% agreed about it feeling fundamentally flawed. On NIPs changing — I guess I just assumed that new NIPs would be introduced that supersede old NIPs. Is that not what happens (or will happen)?
It’ll happen naturally over time with breaking changes being introduced or multiple devs implementing things in different ways.
Nostur does a really good job of keeping track of follow list changes and prompts the user to pick which copy should be kept. But it feels like a bandaid fix on top of a fundamentally flawed spec.
Interesting phrase, to be "found among the good the Lord will keep."

Some fundamental issues of Nostr that make it difficult to scale (but can be fixed):
- NIPs are not versioned. There’s no way to tag which version an event is using, which can lead to divergent interoperability issues.
- List updates are all or nothing (leading to them being nuked in certain scenarios). Updates should be incremental.
- Replaceable events don’t have versions so the created at timestamp is used as a proxy to determine freshness and that could be incorrect.

...this emotion does not want to be communicated.
reminds me of the saying/quote
Man is a social animal.
“Man is by nature a social animal; an individual who is unsocial naturally and not accidentally is either beneath our notice or more than human. Society is something that precedes the individual. Anyone who either cannot lead the common life or is so self-sufficient as not to need to, and therefore does not partake of society, is either a beast or a god. ” -Aristotle

Today is Elon Musk birthday, therefore the focus is on a nazi booklet: The Von Braun Mars Project. A happily go fuck yourself to the birthday hybrid!
Tl;dr if you're not using your life force to live within the Christ stream of consciousness, you're basically giving it for free to what you call the elites.
There's no requirement to declassify the deeds of the private sector. This is precisely the reason why Musk is the puppet in charge of the Mars utopia.
The good news is that it's all up to you on the individual level. Probably the bitcoiners are going to resist and persist. So don't fuck it up, no pressure tho! 🐸
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Latin, invidia is the sense of envy, a "looking upon" associated with the evil eye, from invidere, "to look against, to look in a hostile manner."[1] Invidia ("Envy") is one of the Seven Deadly Sins in Christian belief.

I argue either evolution happened or God wants us to believe evolution happened because the evidence all life has a common ancestor is strong .
Not that there isn't a God or that God didn't direct it.
And I can make this claim without insults so so far I'm winning the argument.
If you have to resort to insults you've already lost.
I did argue against evolution for a good ten years btw.
Evidence is just to strong.
So either evolution happened or God wants it to look like it happened
Exactly, that's what a #nostr relay is for.
And the spirit of the OP (cc. @nprofile…f2j4) is about communicating using a relay knowing just the npub, without needing a direct connection.
🫂
Sure, if two parties rely on a third party to act as a sort of proxy to hold messages for them, then both parties can just connect to the proxy.
That is a form of "communication", but it's indirect. I was talking about making direct connections, because that seemed to be the spirit of the OP

It’s quite important to maintain a Christian presence in the Holy Land.
I liked the side scrolling screen with different articles/events related to "The King James Bible." I'd love to see something like that but for different versions/editions of a book. The Bible is a good example, but also, e.g., The Hobbit has multiple extant editions. It would be cool to swipe between editions, or even search for a specific edition.
The index pattern appeared to be very well-organized and easy to understand at a glance, even for an index of indices, like the Bible. What do you plan to do, though, for a mixed index? Conceivably an index could reference a mix of other indices and individual articles. For example, a work of Shakespeare might have a Foreward, and Introduction, each an article, and then three Acts, each an index of scenes. So on each level we may have a mix or structures. We'll want to find a user-friendly way to display that hierarchy.
The profile pics for different articles in an index is a good contribution. That could be very meaningful in a Nostr-native digital magazine, for instance.
Finally, are there plans to show marginal discussions around highlight events? Maybe those can be filtered by community to create book clubs and the like.
Been a while since I had a argument.
It might be the case that evolution did not happen because we live in a simulation.
But the evidence for evolution within this simulation is pretty great.
If there is a God and I think there is he wanted us to believe that things evolved.

The classic word for universe was cosmos ("to adorn, dress" or "to order and arrange") which I think is instructive here.
Asking how something was created implies a creator. Genesis provides your answer.
Seeing as you are asking in light of the claim that something cannot come from nothing, this is both true and not true as it concerns the cosmos. God created it ex nihilo (creatio ex nihilo) or *out of nothing* as it concerns material reality but the principle of *something cannot come out of nothing* is still true in that all things find their origin in Christ— "All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made." John 1:3.

I believe this, but I think it refers to the Second Coming of Christ. I believe those verses about Him coming in Revelation have to do with His coming in judgment on the Jews in A.D. 70. So, He did come soon, then, as He said, indeed in that same generation as He told them in the Oliver Discourse. However, I do believe that the Second Coming is still unfulfilled.
I can't tell you exactly how the modern State evolved in England, except to say that Parliament grew more powerful at the expense of the monarchy, and mass democracy spread, but apparently the intermediating institutions of churches, families, guilds, and other voluntary associations seem to have declined in influence. They moved away from the Patriarcha of Robert Filmer and towards the Leviathan of Thomas Hobbes. Is that an increase in godlessness and insolence? It does seem to be a shift away from natural/divine law towards artificial/man-made law.
Daniel 4:23
And whereas the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew down the tree, and destroy it; nevertheless leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field, and let it be wet with the dew of heaven: and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him;

Jesus said to his disciples:
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’
will enter the Kingdom of heaven,
but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.
Many will say to me on that day,
‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name?
Did we not drive out demons in your name?
Did we not do mighty deeds in your name?’
Then I will declare to them solemnly,
‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you evildoers.’
“Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them
will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.
The rain fell, the floods came,
and the winds blew and buffeted the house.
But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock.
And everyone who listens to these words of mine
but does not act on them
will be like a fool who built his house on sand.
The rain fell, the floods came,
and the winds blew and buffeted the house.
And it collapsed and was completely ruined.”
When Jesus finished these words,
the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
for he taught them as one having authority,✌️💜🌅
Oh my god, someone who actually spells out two words. Is it judgement day? 😂

The Day of the Lord Will Come
3 This is now the second letter that I am writing to you, beloved. In both of them I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder, 2 that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles, 3 knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. 4 They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, 6 and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished. 7 But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
8 But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you,[a] not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies[b] will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed.[c]
11 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 12 waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn! 13 But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
Final Words
14 Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace. 15 And count the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given him, 16 as he does in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures. 17 You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, take care that you are not carried away with the error of lawless people and lose your own stability. 18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

I live in Michigan, which was “lockdowned” (what a shitty word, let’s call it what it was: Tyranny).
Thank god I live in a rural area 20 mins from Indiana.
My wife and I were in Indiana 2-3 times a week for some freedom. And drove to Florida 5x’s (because I would not wear their slave mask to fly).
Republican ran states - as bad as they initially were, were far, far better than Democrat ran states.
Christ - Michigan took millions of dollars to Indiana and beyond during that BS.
I’ll take 1/2 a loaf, maybe even 1/4 of a loaf, as opposed to none.
There are people who believes themselves to be organized into States which claim authority in those places, yes.
It took hundreds of years for the modern conception of the State to develop, and as we have seen (in the USSR and elsewhere) the modern total State is itself unstable.
Do you believe that the English were especially godless and insolent, and that this gave rise to the modern English State? Is there any evidence of this?

The Essence of Prompt Engineering in 2024
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technology, particularly in the realm of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, a question recurrently surfaces: Is learning prompt engineering still worthwhile in 2024? The inquiry is not only pertinent but also multifaceted, reflecting the nuanced relationship between users and the increasingly sophisticated tools at their disposal.
Prompt engineering, fundamentally, is about crafting queries that elicit the best possible responses from LLMs. It's a skill that marries technical acumen with a deep understanding of natural language, aiming to unlock the full potential of tools designed to understand and generate human-like text. This skill has become especially relevant as LLMs have grown more capable, integrating functionalities like image generation, data analysis, and even external API interactions.
However, the necessity of prompt engineering hinges on the user's objectives. For casual users engaging in a back-and-forth dialogue with ChatGPT, the need for intricate prompt crafting might be minimal. Basic familiarity with the tool's capabilities suffices, as the iterative nature of conversation allows for real-time refinement of queries based on the responses received. In these scenarios, intuition and a general understanding of how to interact with the model often yield satisfactory results.
Conversely, scenarios devoid of immediate feedback or requiring consistent output from LLMs—such as automation tasks or generating prompts for third-party use—demand a more rigorous approach to prompt engineering. Here, precision and clarity in prompt construction are paramount to ensure reliability and consistency in the responses generated. This distinction underscores a broader truth about technology: its utility is not just in its existence but in how adeptly it is wielded.
The evolution of tools like ChatGPT has been paralleled by efforts to demystify their use. Innovations such as Sam The Prompt Creator exemplify this trend, offering users a means to refine their prompts through a guided process that enhances clarity and context. Such tools represent a bridge between the lay user and the complex underpinnings of LLMs, democratizing access to advanced functionalities without necessitating deep technical expertise.
In essence, whether prompt engineering remains relevant in 2024 is contingent upon the user's needs and the context of their interaction with LLMs. For those seeking to leverage these models to their fullest, understanding and skillfully applying prompt engineering principles will undoubtedly enhance the quality and applicability of the outcomes. As LLMs continue to permeate various facets of work and creativity, the art of prompt engineering will likely evolve, but its core objective—to communicate effectively with machines in their language—will remain a cornerstone of harnessing AI's potential.

BREAKING: SUPREME COURT ALLOWS BIDEN TO FORCE SOCIAL MEDIA TO REMOVE "MISINFORMATION" ... what happened to free speech this is a total assault on our first amendment and is this trumps 'based' supreme...

When the course of civilization takes an unexpected turn—when, instead of the continuous progress which we have come to expect, we find ourselves threatened by evils associated by us with past ages of barbarism—we naturally blame anything but ourselves. Have we not all striven according to our best lights, and have not many of our finest minds incessantly worked to make this a better world? Have not all our efforts and hopes been directed toward greater freedom, justice, and prosperity? If the outcome is so different from our aims— if, instead of freedom and prosperity, bondage and misery stare us in the face—is it not clear that sinister forces must have foiled our intentions, that we are the victims of some evil power which must be conquered before we can resume the road to better things? However much we may differ when we name the culprit—whether it is the wicked capitalist or the vicious spirit of a particular nation, the stupidity of our elders, or a social system not yet, although we have struggled against it for half a century, fully overthrown—we all are, or at last were until recently, certain of one thing: that the leading ideas which during the last generation have become common to most people of good will and have determined the major changes in our social life cannot have been wrong. We are ready to accept almost any explanation of the present crisis of our civilization except one: that the present state of the world may be the result of genuine error on our own part and that the pursuit of some of our most cherished ideals has apparently produced results utterly different from those which we expected.
- F.A. Hayek
I meant to refer to the specific technologies (Bitcoin, Nostr, etc.) less and more so point to the commonalities found in similar technologies: decentralization, foregrounding of individual sovereignty, breaking free of control systems, rejection of top-down commands and preference for bottom-up, spontaneous order, etc. These ideas strike me as exactly the opposite of the ideas one finds celebrated in Christianity. and as far as the symbolic personified entities of God and Satan, Satan is far more emobodying of those ideals.
In response to the distances question, here is the website for the photo which held the longest distance ever photographed record - I think it has been beaten out since.
https://beyondrange.wordpress.com/2016/08/03/pic-de-finestrelles-pic-gaspard-ecrins-443-km/
https://m.primal.net/IyrA.png
Pull up a curvature calculator and check the numbers for yourself, and then try to explain how we are observing something that should be obscured by over 1km of curvature.
Next, you couldn't even be honest and concede that surface tension isn't an example of water curving based on gravity, which is obviously what we have been discussing this whole time, or how else are you claiming that large bodies of water are curving?
Mass attracting mass was superseded by relativity, which claims that gravity is the warping and bending of space time. Once again, flat earthers have to educate globers on the very things they cling to like a religion.
What causes things to clump together? Electrostatics, because everything is electric.
You're straw-manning the FE position by calling it a disk. No one claims that, but you think this because you have never even listened to the other side. What causes a downward bias on the inertial plane? Electrostatics, which are a much stronger force than gravity claims to be. Electricity and magnetism is another topic, but you obviously hold the mainstream position on what that is, even though you nor a physicist could define what a field is, or explain magnetism. Gravity is an effect of electricity.
> So many mathematical formulas wouldn't work either, like good ol' e=mc^2.
Why not? Go ahead, explain why this wouldn't work in a geocentric model.
You're once again working off assumptions, like light travelling, which is what the formula relies on. The perceived rate of induction (which is what light is, a coaxial circuit) changes depending on the medium light travels through. So, explain to me where the energy comes from for light to speed up once it has passed through a glass object?
Funny how the people who came up with our entire electrical grid understood that light doesn't travel, but that it is an aether perturbation modality. That, however, has little to do with FE but relates to the topic of magnetism, dielectricity and the aether.
Tailwinds vary in direction and speed depending on the altitude. Uninformed claims. You're also avoiding mentioning GPS, which uses an EARTH CENTRED EARTH FIXED (ECEF) coordinate system, and is the basis of how all calculations with regards to flights and sailing are done.
> Oh boy. You were the one that brought up the lack of time zones that exist in the south. No one brought up Lattitudes, just time zones, which are inherently political boundaries.
Firstly, I messed up what I was saying by inverting the reality - there are many more time zones in the South.
> Those are lattitude lines
I'm not talking about latitudes, time zones are along longitudinal lines my guy, from North to South.
https://m.primal.net/IysH.png
> I have no idea what you're referring to here.
One a globe, these should all be exactly the same. You're not grasping it. Will you watch a skipper who has sailed over 100,000 nautical miles and competed in races around the world explain this issue to you? It's a 20 minute presentation.
For example, the US lies on the same LATITUDE in the North as Australia does in the South. They are roughly the same distance across, yet the US has 4 time zones and Australia has 2.
https://youtu.be/lMhheDWThxE
> Typical unnecessary technobabble employed only when you're being backed into a corner. There is no good reason to use these words in this context.
LOL! You almost did the thing and called it a word salad. No, dude. These are the fundamentals of physics and what modern science is centred around when it comes to cosmological models. But, once again, you haven't spent any time on the subject so you couldn't possibly know anything about the very thing you BLINDLY believe in. I was just proving that point, and I wasn't expecting you to know those things.
To give you some context, the cosmic microwave radiation (CMBR) was measured 3 times at different Lagrange points by "space" agencies. Each time, they found that the Earth had a unique position based on the distribution of the cosmic radiation, which was anisotropic, meaning that it had a preferred direction which all points back to the Earth. It was dubbed the axis of evil. They can't explain it, it "must be wrong" or "it's inconclusive". It has been measured independently on 3 separate occasions. It is objectively is very conclusive.
What they come up as explanations are things like multiverse theories to explain the issue. What's the simplest, most obvious explanation those results? The Earth is fixed in a 'special' position, at the center of everything. Robert Sungenis has a documentary on this which you can find on YT called The Principle. For reference, he's a geocentrist but doesn't think the Earth is flat.
> That was true science.
I tend to agree that what people did in the past was much closer to resembling science than the theoretical horse shit spewed out by paid off retards today. Mental circle-jerking morons that can't even define basic things like fields and magnetism - in reference to 'scientists'.
All of that which you just described has been superseded in your own model. It is completely irrelevant today.
> I honestly don't know what half the words you just used mean but I do feel I understand gravity better than most after seeing those experiments.
Most people don't know those words. That's the whole point. You understand gravity better than most though? Then explain it! You referred to mass, then you referred to Einsteins equation within the frame of relativity. Newton's gravity (mass-mass) was replaced with general relativity because of the failed Michelson-Morley experiment.
You're only making my point for me - most people have no idea what they believe, because they have spent no time on the subject, even in terms of what the mainstream 'experts' tell you to believe.
This is why it's so painful to discuss this in a meaningful way with people who willingly choose to remain ignorant on the subject.
On the last point, the focus is manual on the telescope and it required no adjustment between Uranus and Jupiter, and the moon. That was through a Celestron CPC 1100 if I recall.
> find myself refocusing wildly between all terrestrial objects but objects inside the solar system are pretty much the same focal distance
... which suggests that the celestial bodies are not at the claimed distances apart.
The globe model is as fiat as it gets, most people are not ready for the conversation. However, just like Bitcoiners don't go back to being fiat maxis, there is no such thing as a "former" flat-earther. It only trends in one direction, and it only grows day-by-day.
I'm a strict materialist and don't hold any supernatural beliefs. But I do find it useful or at least fun and interesting to think about the fictional Satan as the god of liberty and symbol of ultimate individual sovereignty and rebellion from archy and oppression.
I have a decent number of borderline evangelicals muted, so I'm sure I unfortunately won't really see the juciest of replies, but I wonder how the Christians of Nostr react to the above statement... If Nostr and Bitcoin are about personal sovereignty, voluntary organization, and escape from control structures, what do you think about the symbolic (or I guess NOT symbolic, for you; real?) figures of God and Satan - with the former being representative of ultimate control, and the latter being representative of ultimate individualism?
I'm going to assume you disagree with some of the symbolic pieces here. which ones?
If you don't disagree with these symbolic positionings, how do you personally square your technological interests and metaphysical beliefs?

And @npub149p…722q has a cool idea of putting a community/forum, wiki, booklist, etc. inside of a private group, so that you have a chat at the top of the page and then the top-listings below, or similar.
So that you could have, like, Catholicstr and it's got a "general chatroom", a "Basics of Catholicism" handbook, the Catechism, Encyclicals, Catholic Bibles, wiki pages the group manages (about the Vatican and religious orders, etc.), article feed for everything tagged #catholic, and then the community forum at the bottom.
GitRepublic 2.0 should offer something like that, for devs.
But most people using such programs aren't devs, so someone should focus on solving that more generally. We'll be using the same events, so I don't see them as competitors. (Yay, interoperability!)

"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing,
but underneath are ravenous wolves.
By their fruits you will know them.
Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
Just so, every good tree bears good fruit,
and a rotten tree bears bad fruit.
A good tree cannot bear bad fruit,
nor can a rotten tree bear good fruit.
Every tree that does not bear good fruit will be cut down
and thrown into the fire.
So by their fruits you will know them."✌️💜🌅

“If you were told that you were going to be given half an hour’s interview with God, and you had the privilege of asking one question, I wonder what you would ask.”
— Alan Watts https://image.nostr.build/5256c2880583e5230d5021265681a047c8998a3962a019266d36b26963137352.jpg
Mount Hermon is where the infamous 200 Watchers swore an oath to create giant demigods to destroy the purity of mankind and lead us away from our destiny. The great usurpation had begun.
This event is seen in both Genesis and 1 Enoch:
When the sons of men had multiplied, in those days, beautiful and comely daughters were born to them. And the watchers, the sons of heaven, saw them and desired them. And they said to one another, “Come, let us choose for ourselves wives from the daughters of men, and let us beget children for ourselves.”
Then they all swore together and bound one another with a curse. And they were, all of them, two hundred, who descended in the days of Jared onto the peak of Mount Hermon.
- 1 Enoch 6
When man began to multiply on the face of the land and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of man were attractive. And they took as their wives any they chose
The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God [Bene Elohim] came in to the daughters of man and they bore children to them.
- Genesis 6:1–4
These Watchers [sons of God/Bene Elohim] are currently awaiting their judgement for their rebellion:
For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment.
- 2 Peter 2:4
It's important to note that at the base of Mount Hermon is the location for the Pan Temple at the Rock of the Gods. In the centre, there is a huge cave called the Gates of Hades (hell) because it is this gate that Baal would have used to enter and leave the underworld.
This location is also where Jesus spoke the famous words to Peter;
on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
- Matthew 16:18
This statement was a double entendre; not only was Jesus talking to Peter (his name means rock), but he was at the foot of Mount Hermon!
Jesus was declaring a cosmic war of taking back the nations from these rebellious sons of God and their bastard offspring.
One day, we will judge these divine rebels, however, along with their offspring [Nephilim], they will do everything in their power to prevent that from happening.
Do you not know that we are to judge angels?

God loves saving families. https://image.nostr.build/89263258b32eb63c5cf95975f6e69a7f7770760560989c1d87b676ba9f5d8336.jpg
NEWSLETTER: Perera Family serving in Fort Worth, TX.
Dear family in Christ,
We have good news to share. After Worldlink Ministries spoke with auditor, we will be able to continue receiving the funds that you send to us. We are grateful to God for keeping this door open as it is crucial for carrying out the ministry among Hispanics in Dallas - Fort Worth to which God has called us. We are thankful to Worldlink for the faithful work they do to benefit the work we are involved in. We are grateful for your generosity and love for the Lord of the harvest. We see your love in the generous and faithful support towards our family. As you know, without your support, we would not be able to minister to the hundreds of Hispanics we are reaching out to, as we are foreigners and Carol is not able to work yet.
Regarding our visas, we are currently in the process of renewing them. We have been trying to extend them for 3 months but immigration has sent the request back to Central Bible Church 4 times and has asked for something that was missing. After the last occasion, we are not clear on what to do and have had to seek help from an attorney. Please pray with us so that we may receive the extension, and provision to cover all expenses with this process. Additionally, we are about to take the first step towards obtaining permanent residency, transitioning from non-immigrant to immigrant status. Once this is granted (estimated around 4 years), we will be in a position to apply for residency. These are lengthy and costly processes. Central Bible Church is being our sponsor and we are very grateful for this generous effort and faith. Undoubtedly, we see injustices in the system when compared to other cases, but we are trusting that the will of the Lord will be done.
Thank you for your fellowship as we serve God among the Hispanic nations around us.
Much Love, Perera Family https://image.nostr.build/503f9da7e11aef18ab867ef6219a299f1664dc4cb05ad235d4a560619a6903b9.jpg

I think we tend to attach our egos to our ideas too much. We claim ideas (and ideologies) as “ours” and as such, we define ourselves as those ideas, and we get offended if someone challenges or criticizes them. In reality, ideas are just “out there,” like a field where you can pick yours, or radio stations that you can tune in and out of, or like love, or God. None of those are anybody’s, yet they’re everybody’s. They are also not static. Like life itself, those concepts and the meanings assigned to those words evolve and change over time, according to the culture, environment and circumstances.
Slack must die.
I'd prefer it were a horrible, screaming death, with lots of gore and the lamenting and wailing of many project leaders.
But we could also just replace it with something Nostr-y.

I don't know who can/wants to build that, but our team is sort of swamped right now. We're just going to push out Indextr and the Biblestr fork of it, and then we have to go back to the NDK grind.
Yeah, sounds like a bigger project, but something very fundamental that is great for eBooks and eMagazines.

oh that's interesting - i've got a lot to catch up on. Thanks for sharing! I realised the adoption of AI in general workspace is also increasing rapidly - or rather the conversation and executive decisions made around it, even locally. I'm beginning to think everything is going to be AI based one way or another to optimise process and flow. Doesn't hugging face come with pre-trained models ? I presume the benchmark specs and parameters make a difference ?

My god, don't go to Australia.
Is there any more info available here? I’m somewhat surprised to hear (and Google doesn’t seem to have any results for) a TLD seizing a domain outright. I could see a shitty registrar (GoDaddy or whatever) doing so, however.
Everyone is born with a set of genes (traits such as intellectual, spiritual, physical...) and a set of circumstances (parents, birthplace, time...) that will heavily influence their outcomes.
In short, Life isn't fair nor equitable, and never has been.
Bitcoin doesn't claim to be perfect, nor does it aim to fix all the problems in the world.
However, human societies have risen mainly through production, commerce and communication, and all societies (so far) have fallen when one or several of these actions have stopped working.
Money is the underlying medium used by humans since the dawn of time, before languages, religion, nations and politics. It is the universal language, thus it underpins production, commerce and communication.
Money is utterly broken today, because it is printed by a few for their own benefits, at the expense of the many.
And that's why today everything is breaking down at an alarming rate, and the wealth gap between the many "poors" and the few "richs" is getting wider, because however long and hard the many will work, their purchasing power can't keep up with the pace of the money printing by the few.
Bitcoin would fix most of the world problems by removing the ability to print money, thus reducing the purchasing power gap between the many "poors" and the few "richs", and allowing people to benefit of the technological improvement of the means of production to live in deflationary societies again.
It still wouldn't make Life perfect and equitable, but it would make Life much fairer and much more equitable by an order of magnitude for the vast majority of people in the world.
King David attempted to hide his crimes as well. The difference between these two is that David repented once the prophet disclosed his secret sins. Pence would have the prophet imprisoned and beheaded. #biblestr #nostr

Okay, heads up, we have #Biblestr in development and we have the domain biblestr.wiki
If someone else embedded that top-level 30040, then I guess we'd have to Display both as top-level.
Like, someone could print the New Testament and Old Testament as individual books, and someone else could join them into a Bible and add Luther's commentary.

In the spirit of understanding i am going to start asking yall for your truth and definitions
So in your own words.
What gives you inspiration
#asknostr #yourviews
30041s are really important because they keep the subcontent out of the main feed.
Otherwise, every single Bible verse will have to be a wiki page or article page or note. There are almost 32k verses.
GM/PV☕️✝️
Jesus said to his disciples:
“Do not give what is holy to dogs, or throw your pearls before swine,
lest they trample them underfoot, and turn and tear you to pieces.“Do to others whatever you would have them do to you.
This is the Law and the Prophets.“Enter through the narrow gate;
for the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction,
and those who enter through it are many.
How narrow the gate and constricted the road that leads to life.
And those who find it are few.”✌️💜💜
Hmm yeah if you use that definition, then what i said makes no sense 😂
I like how you look at it and i do feel similarly (i think) although i don’t feel a need to see it as/call it “God”, but yes i am regularly amazed by life and nature and many things. So i guess i do believe in your definition of God bc it sounds like if i didn’t i’d probably be a grey heartless blob like the NPC cartoon guy, but in real life
But (and again, no offense intended at all here bc i’m sure this is not your intention) It seems like any time i bring up the topic, someone says “well you don’t believe in *that* version of God but one does not simply deny *this* much broader definition of God.”
I’m not fond of attempts to corner me into believing in whatever personally tailored minimum viable God someone can convince me to buy into. Just let me be amazed by my own perception of my life and the universe in peace 😭
This probably all sounds salty af but i promise it’s not. Your definition is entirely respectable and relatable, not that my assessment of it matters. We’re just adults exchanging some words
To me, God is the Source & the All that is.
Not believing in God is like not believing in your existence. Like not believing in the magic that you can see & feel all around you.
I guess we all have a different understanding of the word.
What the fuck is a goddamned Superearth?
Europe is gradually awaking to the godawful reality that their intermittent wind & solar energy will overproduce this summer. Can someone from the right side of the bell curve (I'm left myself), try to explain them they should fire up #bitcoin miners instead of closing power-generation plants...? 🇪🇺
It’s crazy to me how many people [confidently] assume that those who don’t believe in God™️ simply replaced His presence in their lives with something else
I can understand why you might think that, if you believe with all your heart that your religion is the “right” one, and your whole life has been a series of events that all serve to galvanize those beliefs, either directly or in ‘mysterious ways’
But as such i think you also should try to see the perspective of just… not believing it. There is nothing to replace!
I don’t mean to offend. I’ve just seen it implied or stated enough times that someone like me must be a hedonistic, murdering sociopath with no morals. If your religious beliefs are what stop *you* from being like that, wonderful - please definitely keep it up 😅
There are plenty of people out there who can do it on their own though.
Point is, me and you are two out of billions of flawed meatbags all miraculously stuck to the same hard parts of a large ball hurling through space, experiencing all sorts of thoughts and emotions while trying to find/keep mates and not die. So we might as well try to be nice or at least respect each others’ differences.

I don’t follow market sentiment for any other reason than informative purposes, it just so happens that sometimes the market aligns with how bullish I am on #Bitcoin. Now is not one of those times, and it doesn’t matter to me because I’m still accumulating at levels that some might call FOMO, but others might call genius: it’s all perspective and circumstance. Since I found #BTC I have stacked every top and bottom. I don’t consider the recent dip/dips as a sign to be cautious, instead I see it as a Godsend that allows me to get more digital gold in exchange for Monopoly money.
People selling #Bitcoin could never scare me into selling my stack, but people selling #BTC for fiat is cause for concern regarding global intelligence.
Would I be mad if #Bitcoin went back to $15k? NO. Do I think we will see those price levels again? NO.
No one knows what’s to come; even whales are acting cautious, but I refuse to follow any crowd. Buying #BTC at $60k makes even better sense than buying it at $70k and I’m happy to do both.
Good luck out there

Fundamentally? I think it’s a fantastic project that serves a major need, and positively influences people who are completely unaware GrapheneOS exists.
On a personal level? I’d rather carry a flip phone. I felt like I’d traded a $1000 Pixel in for a phone I could’ve gotten for $300 unlocked for prepaid.
I use my phone for 6-10 hours a day though, and need everything integrated with my PCs, cloud synced, etc. I actually use all the “invasive” features of my phone, so it was a jarring experience that left a bad taste in my mouth.
I don’t blame Graphene for that though - that’d be stupid. Those features come at a cost. But I don’t have time to monkey around at work - when I take a picture it needs to be on my MacBook by the time I walk back to the office, among other things.

From https://worldvaluessurvey.org/WVSContents.jsp
The map presents empirical evidence of massive cultural change and the persistence of distinctive cultural traditions. Main thesis holds that socioeconomic development is linked with a broad syndrome of distinctive value orientations. Analysis of WVS data made by political scientists Ronald Inglehart and Christian Welzel asserts that there are two major dimensions of cross cultural variation in the world:
1) Traditional values versus Secular-rational values and
2) Survival values versus Self-expression values.
-Traditional values emphasize the importance of religion, parent-child ties, deference to authority and traditional family values. People who embrace these values also reject divorce, abortion, euthanasia and suicide. These societies have high levels of national pride and a nationalistic outlook.
-Secular-rational values have the opposite preferences to the traditional values. These societies place less emphasis on religion, traditional family values and authority. Divorce, abortion, euthanasia and suicide are seen as relatively acceptable. (Suicide is not necessarily more common.)
-Survival values place emphasis on economic and physical security. It is linked with a relatively ethnocentric outlook and low levels of trust and tolerance.
-Self-expression values give high priority to environmental protection, growing tolerance of foreigners, gays and lesbians and gender equality, and rising demands for participation in decision-making in economic and political life.

At any rate, drawing a line is always somehow arbitrary, but we have faith that their decisions were guided by the Holy Spirit. We know that the Protestants and Orthodox are also pious men guided by the Spirit, but we know that Christ longs for the Church to be His One Bride, so let's work toward reconciliation in our time. 🙏
Catholics consider them part of the traditions of the Early Church and often use them for research or as confirmation of Biblical interpretations.
The Orthodox and the Protestants also have lots of apocrypha, including some of the deuterocanonical stuff. It seems to mostly signify worthy entries that didn't make the "divinely inspired" cut-off from the people compiling the various library/bibliothek editions.
You mean a new event? No, you could also create chapters as articles and then list them in one article, but then you have everything one-dimensional, like in a wiki. And it isn't smart to add dimensions to those data types.
Also means your Wiki topics list will consist mostly of individual versus of the Bible and chapters of classic novels into perpetuity. You'd go there and it'd just be Genesis 1:1, Genesis 1:2, Genesis 1:3... for 80+ books. And multiply that by all of the translations and human languages.... would be terrible wiki spam and they'd have to start using AI to find all of the book publishing and filter it out of the list.
And it gives the impression that the passage contained is someone's opinion about some topic, rather than source material.
And how do you then find collections, to create a separate book list?
Or easily publish an ePub? Need an automatically-identifiable top metadata index page, for that.
That's why book publishing hasn't taken off, yet. Everything else is a pile of papers and this event puts the various papers into binders.
You could put articles or wiki pages into those binders, along with the 30041 events, but the 30040 binder adds curation and hierarchy to the papers.
Just link your biblestr to my public OtherStuff relay (GitCitadel.nostr1.com) and then I can just 1985-tag 30040s with "Bible", and @npub10np…tl5h can help us find them.
I'll open an issue on his GutHub repo and tag you. We can figure something out, to get a Bible and Bible-adjacent feed going from GitCitadel.
What’s the best way to watch a fly-fishing tournament? Live stream.
Then I could add a link to your website in the Bible page as a compendium of original sources for browsing. That would be sweet.
Once we get the reader up, you could just fork it and limit it to Bible publications over a separate relay or an underlying query. Like a Bible-browser.
https://www.biblegateway.com/
And then you can fork my bible wiki page and add the book to the diagram, by editing the code and running it through their server (I have it locally, as a VSCodium plug-in).

The West has become US + western european countries in 1945 because US invaded and conquered Italy and Germany and took over the UK empire and what was left of France and the rest of european nations. All of them, in one form or the other. The eastern countries for obvious reasons just after 1990.
Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and so on are sovereign countries. Italy, Germany are not, or not completely at least. As is not Japan - which despite a very different history and ethnicity is sometimes considered part of the "collective west".
The West is really the "cultural" or "soft power" name for American Empire. As Nato is the military name. European Union is the legislative / economic facade of basically the same thing, plus the convenient "one phone number to call them all".
Nothing is indeed determined by race - or let alone religion. Both are just a tool used if and when needed, to project power.
Is not a cultural thing, but a "power" thing. US conquered most of europe in the past 80 years, because Europe for many reason was and still is the most important geographical area on the planet. The same thing cannot be said for south america which is why the current status quo in terms of US influence (or cultural assimilation) did not change and is not going to be in the coming decades. It's more than enough to keep the area in chaos enough so no regional power can emerge. This is one of the very few permanent US geo-strategic objectives, everywhere since almost forever. That's the reason why US did fought 2 WWs and one cold war to keep Europe from another power to take over (Germany, USSR or god-forbid a combination of the two) and is why is still fighting the proxy war in Ukraine today.

I will be transcribing the Douay-Rheims edition, in case you were wondering. I will have the individual books as 30040s and the chapters as 30041s.
I will then link the 30040 books together into one 30040, named the Douay-Rheims Bible, afterward. I will also offer separate 30040s for the various sections, such as the gospels.
Gym in the morning before everyone wakes up. A never ending list of housework to be done whether it be the honey-do list or the endless letters from the HOA overlords. And then I have 5 children... I have to exert more energy in telling them to do chores than it would take if I just did them myself. And then there is unwilling fasting when my wife forgets I exist and work from home because she is too busy dealing with the children's shenanigans throughout the day. It's a humbling life.
Vengeance is Mine, and recompense; Their foot shall slip in due time; For the day of their calamity is at hand, And the things to come hasten upon them.' - Deuteronomy 32:35
Since God said in the Old Testament, “Vengeance is mine, I shall repay,” he says in the Gospel that we should pray for those who harm us, in order that he who promised vengeance might not seek revenge against them. For [God] wants to forgive by your will, which is fitting according to his promise. But if you seek revenge, you have it, since the unjust man is punished more by his thoughts than by judicial severity.
- Ambrose of Milan

When I was at @npub167n…zu3r I heard a lot of myths about Thailand 🇹🇭
After 5 years living here let me clear them up.
Here’s myth #1: Thailand is just for backpackers.
Maybe this was true 20 years ago, but it couldn’t be further from the truth today.
Yes, Thailand has a low cost of living. But it also has incredibly high quality and high value services.
For instance, I can get a Thai massage at a local shop for $6/hour. Or I can go to one of the many high end spas in Chiang Mai and get the service, amenities and surroundings of a 5-star hotel for $30/hour.
I can eat a local meal for $2, or a Michelin-star fine dining meal for $100.
Beers in a local bar for $2 a pop, glitzy rooftop cocktails for $10.
These are all accessible within Thailand, matched with service that’s way above and beyond for the price you’re paying.
You can definitely live a cheap life here; but you can also live one of great luxury, for good value.
Don’t sleep on Thailand 🇹🇭

When the time arrived for Elizabeth to have her child
she gave birth to a son.
Her neighbors and relatives heard
that the Lord had shown his great mercy toward her,
and they rejoiced with her.
When they came on the eighth day to circumcise the child,
they were going to call him Zechariah after his father,
but his mother said in reply,
“No. He will be called John.”
But they answered her,
“There is no one among your relatives who has this name.”
So they made signs, asking his father what he wished him to be called.
He asked for a tablet and wrote, “John is his name,”
and all were amazed.
Immediately his mouth was opened, his tongue freed,
and he spoke blessing God.
Then fear came upon all their neighbors,
and all these matters were discussed
throughout the hill country of Judea.
All who heard these things took them to heart, saying,
“What, then, will this child be?”
For surely the hand of the Lord was with him.
The child grew and became strong in spirit,
and he was in the desert until the day
of his manifestation to Israel.✌️💜🌅

I'll set one rabbit-trail up for the Book of Jude, so that you can see the pattern.
Just saw you making a bunch of pages and wanted to clarify where I'm going with this structure, so that our pages end up listed under the same titles and people can predict where the links for the actual source material will be.
Not that you have to do it the way I am doing it, free protocol, but I wanted to explain why I won't be merging your fork. I don't want to wiki the Bible itself, as source material should be content-stable, and I therefore will place it in articles, that I can link to or embed in wiki pages.
It is exactly 6 months to Christmas... Hope y'all are excited. :-)
#nevent1q…lkx6
The Bible means "library" and each denomination has it's own selection of books in its library and it's own version of the "library history", so all of the different Bible wiki pages can stand on their own merit.
#nevent1q…hh83
Mine is the Catholic ordering, of course.
The great thing about using PlantUML to generate the picture is that anyone can fork my papally-approved version and create an Orthodox version, Anglican version, Lutheran version, etc. And we can then create a Catholic/Orthodox/etc. version of the "Gospels" wiki article, point directly to that (from the image), and link to our preferred translations from there. Or we can link to the entire wiki page list for the Gospels, so that people can browse them.
There is no expectation of consensus, on Nostr wiki, so we don't have to pretend to agree on this most contentious issue. We can just coexist.
Publishing verses would also mean that someone could take my "Catholic version" and reorder/expand/exclude verses to get a "Protestant" or "Orthodox" version. Someone could also come up with a new Bible version by combining verses from different publications, or including the same verse in three versions and adding commentary. That sort of thing.
Ah, that's good. I wrote in my last article that the Bible would be the first book published on Nostr and I see that it's already true. 🫶
Matthew 2:15
and was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt did I call my son.

Well there is no universally agreed definition of "Western World", some would say it's only North America and west Europe only, while others would say the west is all the Christian majority countries. By the second option South Africa would be part of the west, even if a very poor one.
The whole lifestyle of modern man is arranged in such a way that there is no place for genuine spiritual life. Those who seek the spiritual life are thrown into despair, driven further and further into the mire of worldliness. The very pulse of modern life is nervous, refusing to allow a person any solitude for self-examination, creating an atmosphere hostile to leading a spiritual life. Modern man is like a screw or cogwheel in the gigantic machine of materialistic culture. He loses his individuality and personality and, as they say, runs in circles like a hamster in his cage. “Time is money” is the catchword for modern man’s lifestyle, therefore allowing no time for self-reflection, introspection, attention to the movements of one’s spirit and to the voice of one’s conscience. This nervous, rabid lifestyle wears one out entirely, drains a person’s energy and, thus, leaves him no time to work on himself, which is a necessary demand of the spiritual life. The only desire that remains is to be entertained, to relax, and to get away for a time from the oppressive mechanism of life. As a result, now all kinds of cheap, light-minded entertainment abound—movies, discotheques, etc., and places to spend free time from work and study. Without a doubt, this is the curse of modern life, corrupting all that is healthy in a person. It is the inevitable offspring of modern culture, of a person who has renounced God and made the foundation of his life the spirit of self-satisfying human pride.
All of modern entertainment acts like cocaine and alcohol on our contemporaries. Contemporary entertainment puts spiritual life to sleep in man, paralyzes spiritual impulses, and suppresses the voice of the conscience and of moral norms. Little by little, a person descends from the natural to gross carnality, becoming like a body without a soul according to the words of the Psalmist, I was so foolish and ignorant: I was like a beast before you (Ps 73:22). The terrible sentence of God, once directed to the contemporaries of righteous Noah who perished in the flood, is pronounced on such people: And the Lord said, “My spirit shall not always strive with man forever, for that he also is indeed flesh …” (Gen 6:3).

⭕️ Press Statement..
What the US New York Times revealed about recordings of extremist Zionist Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich regarding plans to annex the West Bank and establish facts on the ground there, and the subsequent comments from the fascist minister on the report, confirms the fascist tendencies of this extremist government and the dangers threatening our people in the West Bank, Jerusalem, our Palestinian land, and our holy sites. This also underscores the necessity for unity to confront these measures, and rally behind the choice of resistance and confronting this arrogant enemy until expelling it from our land and holy sites.
The international community, which observes these violations and criminal schemes against our people and land, must act urgently and pressure the extremist Zionist government to stop them and hold the leaders of the occupation accountable for their crimes against our Palestinian people in the West Bank and for the genocide they are committing in the Gaza Strip.
In the face of these criminal steps, we call upon our people in the West Bank to continue the uprising against the Zionist occupation, its army and settlers, and activate all means of resistance until these plans are thwarted and this abhorrent occupation to our land and holy sites is ended.

Look at how countries are clustered on this map:

South Americans just do not have the culture of narcissism ("self-expression") and loathing for traditions that defines modern Western Culture ("Protestant Europe" and "English-Speaking" on that chart).
The average USA citizen doesn't really belong in that cluster either - see chart - hence the burning paranoia among Western elites that the USA might "defect" from the West if it found a strong, populist leader.

Then people can jump to every level from the "Bible" page.
@npub1wam…u3l2 we need the wiki page structure to match up to the image structure, so that people can click on the item and jump to the appropriate page, where they'll find a synopsis and links to the various translations (including your KJV).
E.g., we'd need an "new testament" page, a "gospels" page, a "Mark" page, and the various translations of Mark listed at the bottom of that one.

Another thing your could do with this modular article structure is have something like a
30040 Chronological Bible header
with each day being an article that is also posted every day, containing Bible verses (30041) and commentary (other articles).
God’s will be done.
#note1eyq…pdw2
That was a lot of work and it's not very pretty, but making it programmable means we can do things like make the blocks clickable, so that you can navigate to the associated kind 30040 event by the picture. Clicking on the individual books, like "Genesis" would take you to the kind 30040 event that listed all of the kind 30041 event chapters, that contain the individual verses. We could even make the chapters into 30040 and the verses into 30041, if we wanted more granularity.
And then you could insert individual verses into a "bible reading of the day" article. Or make 30040 collections that are the Bible passages in a specific order, like chronological Bibles.
Or have collections that take a verse and show it in different versions ancient Greek, Latin, King James, ESV, etc.

The basic foundation of money as a tool is two-fold: to store spent energy through time and to exchange it for real things we need. If the world began with no money, relying only on production and barter, how did we evolve to a system so dependent on credit and the manipulation of present value with futuristic monetary units?
The shift from a production-based economy to a credit-based one represents a fundamental change in how value is perceived and managed. Initially, money served as a simple medium to store and exchange value derived from actual goods and services. This system ensured that value was tied directly to tangible efforts and resources.
However, the introduction of credit marked a departure from this model. Credit, in essence, allows the borrowing of future value to be spent in the present. While it can stimulate economic growth by enabling investments and consumption beyond immediate means, it also creates a disconnect between actual production and perceived wealth. This disconnect can lead to inflation, economic bubbles, and financial crises.
My personal belief is that the system of credit was inherently designed to shift value from the present to the future, allowing for the exploitation of immediate resources at the expense of long-term stability. This design benefits those who control the creation and distribution of credit, often at the expense of the broader population.
In essence, credit allows for the creation of wealth that is not backed by real production, leading to an economy that can be manipulated and controlled by those in power. This manipulation often results in the devaluation of currency and the erosion of savings, effectively "stealing" value from the present to pay for promises of future repayment that may never be fully realized.
In conclusion, while credit can provide economic benefits, its inherent design also facilitates the transfer of present value into the hands of a few, often at the expense of many. This systemic issue underscores the need for a more transparent and equitable financial system that aligns more closely with the fundamental principles of value storage and exchange.
“No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”

"Grand prop, what do you think about XRP?"
Dear Grand son,
Ripple is often likened to the federal branch of the U.S. government due to its centralized control over the XRP ledger. Just as the federal government can exert significant influence over state laws and regulations, Ripple Labs holds considerable sway over the XRP network. This centralized control can be beneficial for efficiency and coordination but also poses risks of manipulation and lack of true decentralization.
In contrast, Bitcoin operates like the ideal decentralized governance system envisioned by the forefathers. It is akin to a federation where no single entity has overarching control, ensuring a system that is resilient to corruption and manipulation. This decentralization empowers individuals and distributes control, making it far more difficult for any single actor to alter the fundamental rules or exploit the system for personal gain.
This comparison highlights a crucial distinction: while centralized systems like Ripple can offer certain efficiencies, they also replicate many of the vulnerabilities of traditional centralized institutions. On the other hand, decentralized systems like Bitcoin provide a robust defense against such vulnerabilities, preserving integrity and fairness in the financial system.
As we navigate the complexities of modern financial systems, it's important to recognize these differences and understand the implications of centralization versus decentralization. The resilience and security of a truly decentralized system offer a compelling alternative to the centralized control that Ripple represents.

Q: What do you like about my art? What attracts you?
A: I've always appreciated the style of neo-impressionism but I've never actually asked an artist what the style was until just now with you.
What I like about your art is the spirit of reality it reveals. It acts like a filter that reveals the truth behind the images our brain tells us is what makes reality.
Just to see the potted plant on the window sill in reality and how your painting is coming out reveals just that. Art like yours alters my reality and sparks introspection, like why do I perceive the world The way I do?

Now we don't invest in the future cause we think the future CAN'T get better. What a sad and pathetic state of affairs.

On that day, as evening drew on, Jesus said to his disciples:
“Let us cross to the other side.”
Leaving the crowd, they took Jesus with them in the boat just as he was.
And other boats were with him.
A violent squall came up and waves were breaking over the boat,
so that it was already filling up.
Jesus was in the stern, asleep on a cushion.
They woke him and said to him,
“Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?”
He woke up,
rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Quiet! Be still!”
The wind ceased and there was great calm.
Then he asked them, “Why are you terrified?
Do you not yet have faith?”
They were filled with great awe and said to one another,
“Who then is this whom even wind and sea obey?”✌️💜🌅
My journey in understanding monetary policy:
In the beginning my focus was on the abuse of the monetary system by inflating the money supply that caught my attention. It drew my gaze to the Cantillon effect, which I probably spent too much time on mansplaining to others.
Second, it was the abuse by deflating the money supply that stole my focus, especially the incredibly harmful parity policy of several European governments in the 1920s, and the way the banking elite of the UK and the US exploited this in a highly elaborate scheme carried out by Benjamin Strong and Montagu Norman.
Third, I realized how many ways a monetary monopoly enabled channelization of newly created money to various favoured players. It really enables both targeted amd full-scale corruption of society.
The fourth step was understanding the significance of someone being in a position to profit from creating money that the rest of us must work for. When you look deeply into this simple fact, you really see that the Cantillon effect is of secondary importance.
And finally, fifth, after having understood better the motives for the killing of Jesus (see attached post,) I realized it was the monopolization of the monetary system itself that was the most important thing to focus the most on, because it opens up so many opportunities for the ruler to control people's behavior and extract wealth from them.
Looking back, it feels like I have been wrestling with an onion, but I see more clearly now, that the main focus has to be on the simple question of monetary monopoly vs. monetary freedom, something which luckily is reflected in all of my books on money.
If we in the public debate can focus on this core subject, monetary monopoly vs. monetary freedom, instead of just talking about the symptoms, such as for instance price increases, I believe it will be easier to win over more people in our fight against the political elite.

Many people believe that Bitcoin miners are suppressing prices, but this perspective reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of Bitcoin and its value.
First, it's important to realize that most expenses today, including those of Bitcoin miners, are still paid in fiat currency. Miners need to cover their costs for electricity, hardware, and other operational expenses, which means they often sell some of their Bitcoin holdings for fiat to pay these bills. This doesn't suppress the value of Bitcoin; it's a practical necessity given the current financial landscape.
Second, valuing Bitcoin purely in fiat terms limits your understanding of its true potential. Bitcoin's value lies not in its price relative to dollars or euros, but in its unique properties as a decentralized, censorship-resistant, and inflation-proof form of money. Its value should be measured in its ability to preserve wealth, facilitate transactions, and provide financial independence.
Adopting this new mindset means seeing Bitcoin not just as an asset to be traded for fiat profit, but as a revolutionary financial system that operates outside the constraints of traditional currencies. It’s about understanding the long-term vision and the freedom it brings, rather than getting caught up in short-term price movements.
“Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.”
Hebrews 4:11 NIV https://bible.com/bible/111/heb.4.11.NIV
Revelation 13:14
And he deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by reason of the signs which it was given him to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who hath the stroke of the sword and lived.

Jack Dorsey's talk on "Tech and Freedom" delves into the importance of permissionless technologies, such as Bitcoin and Nostr, and their potential to empower individuals by removing dependencies on centralized authorities like governments and corporations.
Summary
Thesis
Dorsey argues that technology can liberate individuals from the need for permission from centralized authorities in critical areas: money, speech, and intelligence. He advocates for permissionless technologies that enhance freedom and reduce reliance on governments and corporations.
Key Arguments
1. **Money**:
- Traditional financial systems require permission from banks and governments for transactions.
- Bitcoin offers a decentralized alternative that does not depend on these intermediaries.
- Bitcoin's proof-of-work system ensures security and eliminates the need for a central authority to validate transactions.
2. **Speech**:
- Free speech online is often mediated by platforms that require users to comply with their policies.
- Platforms like Nostr provide a decentralized way to communicate, where users control their own data and can operate without a central authority.
3. **Intelligence**:
- Access to information has historically been controlled by institutions like governments and the church.
- AI and large language models are centralizing this control once again.
- Dorsey calls for open-source AI to ensure that individuals retain control over how information is used and interpreted.
Supporting Arguments
- **Historical Context**:
- Printing press and the internet democratized access to information but faced resistance from established institutions.
- **Technological Solutions**:
- Bitcoin provides a deflationary currency alternative, securing value through decentralization.
- Nostr offers a model for decentralized social media, returning control of data to users.
- Open-source AI can counteract the monopolization of knowledge by a few large corporations.
Contraarguments
- **Complexity and Accessibility**:
- Permissionless technologies can be difficult for the average person to understand and use.
- Infrastructure for converting cryptocurrencies into traditional currency remains underdeveloped, especially in developing countries.
- **Potential for Misuse**:
- Complete freedom of speech on decentralized platforms might allow for the spread of harmful or illegal content.
- Ensuring ethical use of these technologies while maintaining their decentralized nature poses a challenge.
Key Quote
"The only truth you have is what you can verify yourself with your own experience and with your own connections."
Analysis
Early Indicators of Future Success
- **Adoption and Adaptation**:
- Increased adoption of Bitcoin and similar technologies in regions with unstable financial systems indicates growing trust in decentralized finance.
- Successful implementation of Nostr or similar platforms can demonstrate the viability of decentralized social media.
Conclusion
Dorsey’s talk highlights the transformative potential of permissionless technologies in democratizing access to money, speech, and information. While challenges remain in terms of usability and ethical considerations, the trajectory towards decentralization presents a compelling case for a future where individuals have greater autonomy.

From the Introduction:
"No legislation had been passed, no war had been declared, but most of the population suddenly found themselves locked in their homes.
"...The experts who had locked down the entire country were drunk on the incredible power they had amassed in the space of only a few months and had no interest in letting it go. Many state and local governments worked in concert with federal agencies to treat those who opposed the lockdowns as the equivalent of public-health terrorists. Business owners who attempted to open shop were fined millions of dollars, parents who took their children to the park were threatened, and pastors who attempted to hold church services were arrested.
"...Little to no action was taken to challenge the constitutionality of these restrictions and punishments.
"I was absolutely blown away by what had unfolded before me. The US Constitution was the bedrock of my American identity. I had been told all my life that the carefully crafted checks and balances built into the system limited the government’s ability to seize power in exactly this manner. Even if all the branches of government were to work in unison to encroach on people’s freedom, the Bill of Rights stood as a final bulwark against the destruction of our liberties. I had been told the Second Amendment existed primarily to make sure nothing like this could ever happen. Yet freedom of assembly and worship had been summarily abolished and very few people seemed to care. Obviously the politicians had buckled under but even those around me who I’d known for decades and who largely shared my political views were happy to go along. Conservatives and libertarians who had spent their whole lives railing against government tyranny found ways to excuse and deflect. When tyranny came, nothing happened. The Constitution I’d believed in my whole life did nothing. Those who had parroted the myth of limited government seemed to go on as if nothing important had been lost."
It makes me sad that there are Muslims who promote Bitcoin to end usury, but Christians who are already trying to justify using Bitcoin to facilitate usury.
Holding #bitcoin is more financially lucrative than holding rental real estate.
If you know you know.
If you think stacking bitcoin with the rent "profit/cash flow" is better than liquidating the asset for bitcoin, you are not bullish enough on bitcoin and can't grasp absolute scarcity. You'll do better than the landlord who doesn't stack any bitcoin, but the bitcoiners who sold for all in sats will leave you in the dust over time, with no headache and no maintenance.
So intelligent bitcoiners sell real estate and other "financial assets" for bitcoin to hodl long term.
And they rent or utilize maximum mortgage lending for a primary residence.
When they hit their hodl goals, then they indulge their bitcoin into some dream real estate or whatever they want to buy in 5, 10, 20, or 30 years...
When landlords do this en masse, bitcoin monetizes as it should and housing prices plummet to their utility value as it should be on a sound money standard.

You're, or at least the ZNET article is anti CO2, and assumes there is a climate crisis.
The basic assumption of this way of thinking is that the Earth is gentle (it's not), and that humans are a parasite on the planet (we're not). The fundamental philosophy of the climate crisis lie is that it would be better for Earth if every human were dead. But that's not true. It's genocidal. That climate hysteria narrative is anti-human.
Increases in CO2 reduce human deaths and increase photosynthesis efficiency, making Earth greener. Therefore, human using fossil fuels, and the CO2 released therein, is good for the planet and human flourishing.
You think the article is pro human, but it's very not.
It's neo-Marxist, anti-human garbage.
Aside from New Saint Andrews, there are basically no Christian colleges I would recommend to people anymore, for this and other reasons.
With few exceptions I don't recommend going to college at all though

"The proposal will return to the drawing board, as the European Commission[1] and the European Parliament continue to deliberate on the best way forward.

Hungary has already committed to developing a comprehensive legislative framework to prevent and combat online child sexual abuse and revising the directive against the sexual exploitation of children."

Is this from the Book of Enoch? It's not exactly from the Bible.
41
and the judge said, the judgement of death must pass upon this woman because she transgressed our law, and this therefor is the decision concerning her
42
and the people of those cities assembleda nd brought out the young woman, and annointed her with honey from head to foot, as the judge had decreed, and they placed befor her a swarm of dees which were then in their hives, and the bees flew upon her and stung her that her whole body was swelled
43
and the young woman cried out on account ofg the bees, but no one took notice of her or pitied her, and her cries ascended to heaven
44
and the Lord was provoked at this and all the works of the cities of Sodom, for they had abundance of food, and had tranquility amongst them, and still they would not sustain the poor and the needy, and in those days, their evil doings and sins became great before the Lord
45
and the lord sent for two of the angels that had come to Abraham's house, to destroy Sodom and its cities
46
and the angels rose up from the door of Abraham's tent, after they had eaten and drunk,
[angels need to eat too because they are humans]
and the yreached Sodom in the evening, and Lot was then sitting in the gate of Sodom, and when he saw them he rose to meet them, and he bowed down to the ground.
47
and he pressed them greatly and brought them into his house, and he gave them victuals [ie, sacrifices, gifts] which they ate [ie, bbq], and they abode all night in his house. [why would angels who are immortal need to sleep? yes, because they are humans!]
48
and the angels said to Lot, Arise, go forth from this place, thou and all belonging to thee, lest though be consumed in the iniquity of this city, for the Lord will destroy this place
-- pause for now
why would angels need to rest overnight
why would angels need to eat
oh yeah, because they are humans
did the Lord mean punishment upon the evil crazy loons of Sodom?
no, actually, they came to rescue the good Lot from their midst because they knew, by their Science, (ability to see) that the area was about to get hammered by a freakin meteor and nothing would survive
i'm of course going to continue reading this but if you think that angels aren't humans then i pity you
they are humans
and they are coming back
and they will pity you and probably help you

This SHIT IS MENTAL !!!!
I bought this book from Amazon and I just happen to get my little sister's book from high school. I am Noha Simsaa. She is Sulafa Simsaa.
She went to a small, private high school in Madison, WI. The name of the school is Edgewood High School.
Let's calculate the odds of something like this happening in real life. Why? Because this is NOT the first time something like this happens to me.
I defer to the time I made a phone call via Skype to my sister Maysa in Nairobi, Kenya only to have some guy named Nicholas of all the names (Sulafa's American husband), from Copenhagen, Denmark (why the Kenyan mobile and also where Maysa "graduated" from her master's program in public health and met her German husband Christoph Schmidt) pick up the phone. We talked for a while and I even told him I am not vegan anymore. The odds of that happening Swedish Skype is ZERO. I asked chatGPT but I had to force-feed it the answer. Sam Altman/Elon Musk, you have some "training" to do with chatGPT
Population of USA in 2000: 281M
Percent of High Schoolers in 2000: 16.3M
Number of high school students in Edgewood in 2000: 1059
Number of High School Students in Edgewood High School per class: 256
Probability that I end up with my very own sister's copy of school novel is 250/ ZERO!!!!!
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON !!!!

I still can’t understand how Bitcoiners continue to vote for lying politicians. This whole system is so blatantly corrupt.
Feds arrested the samourai wallet team and confiscated their stuff. What happened to their right to unreasonable search and seizures? What about innocent until proven guilty? Think about it. If you are innocent until proven guilty, then what grounds do law enforcement have to seize your property? What’s even more insane is that they seized the property of the samourai team and are using it in their bullshit case against them. Do you have a case against them or not?
If you stole something from a business and there is video evidence of the theft occurring, that is enough to enact justice against you. There is no need to break into your home and confiscate your property and snoop through it. And what’s the point of the 5th amendment? You have the right to not incriminate yourself or have your property seized without due process. But they just forcefully take all your shit anyway and use whatever they wrongfully found to incriminate you. So they collect evidence after they arrest you and then give you this version of bullshit “due process” and call it justice. If they can get everyone to use Elon’s neurallink, they’ll just hack into your brain and find out if you’re guilty. Then they’ll gaslight you and say that your 5th amendment right is preserved lmao clown world.
Vale, esa la compro en cuanto al Estado (quién detenta el poder).
Pero y en el lado de la sociedad?
Como se ha podido perder tanto el tener un criterio propio?
No será que como ciudadanos, padres, hijos y demás, nos estamos dejando llevar por la comodidad?
Esta bien criticar a los que detentan el poder, pero los borregos somos los que nos vestimos con esa piel y no hacemos nada más.
Leer y tener criterio sigue siendo gratis, y esta al alcance de la mano.
Tal vez nos falta empujar más como individuos, que por muy soberanos que queramos ser, estamos en un mundo social, de varios miembros más, por lo que desde un punto egoísta, deberíamos de tratar de hacer que más gente despierte!
Obviamente no es fácil, pero me pregunto que más falta?
Cuál es el detonante que haga que la clase media, educada y siempre movilizada que ha sido, al menos en los años de 1980 a 2018, despierte y vea que se le esta yendo de las manos la cosa!!!
Here's a preview of what a nostr webring can look like. One thing that differentiates between a webring and simply a list of recommended links is the condition that all the websites in the webring link to each other. In nostr we can use the social graph to bootstrap this process, where inclusion in a graph theory clique based on follows is the criteria for inclusion in the webring.
The profiles shown here do not currently form a clique, this is just a idea of what it can look like.

That fits my definition to a T. If you put that as your website in your kind 0, then you can be part of the nostr webring.
If you have a personal web page (that means not just a blog or resume + portfolio), let me know so if I like it I can add it to the list.
I'd like to revive the old school concept of webrings by using nostr, WoT, and the Bron-Kerbosch clique finding algorithm. Traditional webrings fit the graph theory definition of a clique, though they maintain it with a centralized coordinator. With nostr, we can create a decentralized webring.

It's more complex than that - see Vol I of Rothbard's [Austrian Perspective on the History of Economic Thought](https://mises.org/library/book/austrian-perspective-history-economic-thought). I would lay the fault of our credit-driven economies largely at the feet of Peel's Laws in the mid 1800s, the advent / rise of Fractional Reserve Banking--the rise of the social-gospelers like Rockefeller, and the Rothschilds, etc. and all the State paternalism that that implied.
But either way, the Reformers always taught that the moral law of God frames all activities, commerce not excluded, so I don't see how they can be accused of "separating money and religion." Interest is a necessary function of functioning economies, as all the 'Austrians' ably show.
If I may: question the sources (like Brad S. Gregory) that lay the guilt of all modern problems at the feet of the Protestant Reformers. The Protestant Reformers, in particular, were implementing (though slowly) the principles we know as "classical liberalism" two centuries prior to the American founders (see John Witte, Jr. [The Reformation of Rights: Law, Religion and Human Rights in Early Modern Calvinism](https://www.amazon.com/Reformation-Rights-Religion-Modern-Calvinism/dp/0521521610/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&sr=1-1)).

This source claims the Reformers were originally all against making money off of money, upholding the medieval scholastic tradition, and then Calvin broke ranks and it just cascaded from there and eventually was also adopted by the Catholic Church.
https://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15235c.htm
Didn't John Calvin permit interest on commercial loans and thereby abolish the usury doctrine against mutuum?
The Swiss Reformers thereby normalized the business of making money off of money, and became the financial engine of all Protestant countries, where the state strengthened over the church, in order to help the money lenders collect their profits?

So now your theory is that I have fed handlers? That's like the Godwin's law of decentralized networks. The more you beef with someone the probability you'll call them a fed approaches 1.
Protestantism did not separate money and religion. Read our confessions and catechisms and that will be quite clear. A representative example would be the [WLC](https://opc.org/lc.html) on what the 8th Commandment ("Thou shalt not steal") both prohibits and requires:
> Q. 140. Which is the eighth commandment?
> A. The eighth commandment is, Thou shalt not steal.
> Q. 141. What are the duties required in the eighth commandment?
> A. The duties required in the eighth commandment are, truth, faithfulness, and justice in contracts and commerce between man and man; rendering to every one his due; restitution of goods unlawfully detained from the right owners thereof; giving and lending freely, according to our abilities, and the necessities of others; moderation of our judgments, wills, and affections concerning worldly goods; a provident care and study to get, keep, use, and dispose these things which are necessary and convenient for the sustentation of our nature, and suitable to our condition; a lawful calling, and diligence in it; frugality; avoiding unnecessary lawsuits, and suretiship, or other like engagements; and an endeavor, by all just and lawful means, to procure, preserve, and further the wealth and outward estate of others, as well as our own.
> Q. 142. What are the sins forbidden in the eighth commandment?
> A. The sins forbidden in the eighth commandment, besides the neglect of the duties required, are, theft, robbery, man-stealing, and receiving anything that is stolen; fraudulent dealing, false weights and measures, removing landmarks, injustice and unfaithfulness in contracts between man and man, or in matters of trust; oppression, extortion, usury, bribery, vexatious lawsuits, unjust enclosures and depredation; engrossing commodities to enhance the price; unlawful callings, and all other unjust or sinful ways of taking or withholding from our neighbor what belongs to him, or of enriching ourselves; covetousness; inordinate prizing and affecting worldly goods; distrustful and distracting cares and studies in getting, keeping, and using them; envying at the prosperity of others; as likewise idleness, prodigality, wasteful gaming; and all other ways whereby we do unduly prejudice our own outward estate, and defrauding ourselves of the due use and comfort of that estate which God hath given us.

This is an interesting discussion of the basics of Islamic finance.
They make the pertinent point that Islam (like all religions prior to Protestantism and socialism, which both separated money and religion) sees money as a tool to serve God by creating wealth that can be used to raise up humanity, rather than the pursuit of money being a worthy goal, in and of itself.
And that socialism was a reaction to the amorality of Protestant finance, which helps explain why it arose in Germany. 🤔

Jesus said to his disciples:
"No one can serve two masters.
He will either hate one and love the other,
or be devoted to one and despise the other.
You cannot serve God and mammon.
"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life,
what you will eat or drink,
or about your body, what you will wear.
Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
Look at the birds in the sky;
they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns,
yet your heavenly Father feeds them.
Are not you more important than they?
Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span?
Why are you anxious about clothes?
Learn from the way the wild flowers grow.
They do not work or spin.
But I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor
was clothed like one of them.
If God so clothes the grass of the field,
which grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow,
will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith?
So do not worry and say, 'What are we to eat?'
or 'What are we to drink?' or 'What are we to wear?'
All these things the pagans seek.
Your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
But seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given you besides.
Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself.
Sufficient for a day is its own evil."✌️💜🌅

If you are creating revolutionary art, or art meant to be perceived as revolutionary and transformative, you must go beyond the formulas of the 1990s. The world has changed dramatically with the rise of the cyber and digital era. This transformation from the industrial era to the cyber and digital era is not just a technological shift but a fundamental change in how we live, work, and think. It impacts every level of our lives—economically, socially, and culturally. The way we connect, communicate, and create has evolved, demanding new paradigms and perspectives.
To truly inspire and challenge people to confront contemporary issues, you must evolve and upgrade the templates you operate on. Clinging to outdated models is merely repetitive. Unfortunately, the vast majority of art today still relies on old paradigms, which is insufficient.
If you don’t upgrade your template and the topics you embody in your art, you actually reinforce the existing system by diverting attention from critical issues—issues that can save lives, humanity, and the future of mankind. It is crucial to provoke thought and engagement. Repeating nostalgia art doesn’t stimulate thinking; it places people in a comfort zone and turns off their critical faculties. Go out there, challenge the status quo, and create art that truly makes a difference.

Is a connection to #nostr also a connection to god? Think about it…
Might i propose “God” sometime as well
Maybe I've just suffered brain damage from being convinced by this model for the past two years, but I literally cannot see any other way to do it that makes any sense.
Once you banish the idea of `global` or `objective` from your head, everything becomes clear. It might just be a fact that "onboarding" in a decentralized network is going to be fundamentally different (call it "worse") than with centralized "networks". We should be careful in comparing decentralized onboarding solutions to their centralized cousins - it's apples and oranges.
And this might be a wonderful thing. If I'm joining a highly-personal and localized network (maybe it's a little mini app for a local club that is built on nostr), it _should_ feel quiet and intimate. Maybe _all_ software and social networking applications should feel like that. It might be that the thirst for "wide reach" and "global discovery" are exactly the agents that poison the well.
God opposes the proud, but gives Grace to the humble.
The terrifying thing about this to those of us who deal with pride, is that Gods opposition is sometimes to completely humble us by the power of His embarrassingly relentless love. And when He gets you in His sights, it’s just a matter of time.

What the good hearted people in the comments miss, is that you have a way of making everything that happens to others about you. You also only ask questions you think you already know the answer to. Because of this, I personally suspect God is going to go out of His way to make a significant example of His endless love out of you. ❤️
In fact I’m going to ask Him to 😆

I've followed you for a while. I used to think your were alright - maybe a "bit much" at times and ever so slightly insane; but most of my favorite people are a bit much and kinda nuts.
But after I watched you and Laeserin go off in your little Christian enclave corner of the thread to discuss the moral corruption and retardation of everyone who doesn't share your beliefs, I started to think about you a bit differently.
And after seeing notes like this one, I'm starting to think of you a bit more as an arrogant blowhard who takes himself a bit too seriously.
I don't think I'm in any place to give you "useful information" nor do I think you'd accept it. but there are some honest thoughts for you.

6 months ago, on my birthday, we got the news that my wife had cancer.
I made a choice then, to believe that in spite of how things appeared, that there were deep and valuable gifts to be found in what we would walk through next.
What happened over the next 6 months was a deepening of our marriage and love for each other that is hard to express. We also experienced the tangible presence of God showing up at every significant medical event, and miraculous provision to pay for them.
My wife also had some deep realizations about how she wanted to live differently.
Both of us did.
My wife returned to work today, cancer free. Tomorrow is her birthday.
Alex is still waiting for his list and we went off on a full Bible nerd tangent. 🤣

Nostr adds a social aspect to it that that these Bible sites usually only get by having a separate chatroom with hyperlinks, or something. So that all the Bible nerds can debate and rant at each other in the highlights or post competing wiki explanations of certain passages.

I'm sure there is. Scholars would want them, but I'm too lazy to look.
Obvious good use case for the publishing events, of course. Publish the Bible in various versions and compare/analyze the passages by embedding the versions into wiki pages.

Probably no time for a hawk tuah.
Yeah, go wiki-version. That's how the scholars do it, anyway, and then you don't have to chase all of the translations down yourself.
I like to use the Bible search engines and then read through the same passage in different versions.
"Remember that the government doesn’t really represent the country. The government is a separate entity that has its own interests, much as a church, a corporation, or any other organization does. The problem is that the government is the only institution in society that doesn’t survive by voluntary trade and production. It survives by force, confiscating assets from the people that it rules. People have an entirely backwards view of what the government is. It’s not your friend."

One minute, let me get up a list, for you.
On Warnings
In a prior post I lamented the lack of warning from Hyatt Regency when I was unceremoniously kicked me out because I was too loud and may or may not have cursed out loud thus offending sensitive ears. First amendment and all. Well, I decided to be fair since that is what I pleaded. At least give me a warning first before you kick me out. Look at all the money I spent in your establishment, I said, pulling up my credit card statement. But nothing worked and I have not been back since. Read all about it on this profile, a few posts back. Anywho. I have this problem. My sister Maysa and perhaps also Sarah and Sulafa, are constantly screaming in my ear that I am insane. Also, there seems to be some fight over a man, maybe Drew. Hard to say because they have never met him. Also, he is well and truly married. God and country. But they are in favor in Ruby and not me, their own flesh and blood. Their lives depends on it. As in money. They placed their bets on the grand casino of life and they chose wrong. Now, they are willing to do anything to rig the system in their favor. They were already planning a luxurious life with mansions and trips to St Tropez. No joke. They eschew morality, ethics, decency and goodness. All for money. They are bought and paid for. They imprison me on false claims of insanity. When that doesn't work, they claim there are two "me" thus explaining away my successes. When that doesn't work, they claim I am not pretty enough. Then they extol the virtues of Ruby/Sarah. She is pretty, sweet, normal, a honey really. What they forgot to tell you is Sarah is the original insane. She called me in London, words a blazing, with tales full of bad spirits and treacherous friends. She then got better only to once again lapse into oblivion keeping me and my now ex-husband up all night with nonsensical gibberish. Kamal was sick of it so he went to bed, quietly saying a prayer to a god he doesn't believe in, for Sarah to go away. He was permanently turned off Sarah on that fateful night in Madison when he told her his plan for smoothing the way for her and her then boyfriend Ayman. He told her to wait until he broke the news to Mom. She broke into the most disrespectful expletives when he was a man 16 years her senior with negotiating experience advising worldwide news desks out of London, England. Once you lose Kamal, it's over. The sad truth is he was right and he was only trying to help her. But she did not want to wait. She wanted to be like Maysa, ironically speaking. She wanted to be the one with a boyfriend to bring home. Truthfully, Sarah is the furthest thing from sane. So when that doesn't work, they go back to I'm insane. It is their favorite excuse, not favorite mistake, Sheryl Crow. They are backed into a corner and will do and say anything to "get away with it". But this time it is different. God has weighed in. He decided to expose them fully. People shout back that I am sane. That I am pretty. I am good. I am moral. In fact, I am better. At the end of the day, I don't know what to make of it. I genuinely don't understand what's going on. Let alone what happened. I just want it to stop. I beg, I plead. I walk around with my wares on display because seeing is believing. People are astonished. I can see the shock in their eyes. They too are victims of a great crime. It is not just me. I must keep going no matter how foolish I look. The tide is turning. People are shouting back to Maysa in particular that I am sold. That is, people now buy what I am selling. The truth. I wish they knew the truth from the beginning. I wish this all could have been avoided. But Maysa is making it hard, according to Madex. She wants it to be her. She even recruited my own mother in her devilish ways. My own mom asked me once if my husband wants Maysa, not me. This is supposedly a god fearing woman who prays daily, fasts Ramadan and went to Haj. I am reeling from the pain inflicted by my family. How can they be this awful?. Most importantly, how do I protect my son?Why is it taking so long to put a stop to Maysa, once and for all. Is it not obvious that if anyone is well and truly insane, it is Maysa not me. I am making the hard choice to continue exposing my family. I was the one who sponsored them for American citizenships. I have the receipts. The best part is, I did warn them. I asked them not to put me in this position. They ignored me and continued with the insults anyways. I must proceed with making good on the threat. That's how to parent so it must be they are children in need of rearing. This isn't easy to do but needs must. Plus seeing is believing. Attached are encrypted documents with hash codes of my security clearance submission when I first joined Booz Allen Hamilton in 2008, to support The State Department. Hi @Snowden Yes, we both worked there. I am also in a gulag, but mine is more severe in its inhumanity. It is a state of mind. There is no escape. Not even in dreams. How do they do that, Edward? How do I save myself from this nightmare of Maysa screaming over and over that I am insane, not pretty, and it is her. Please help. I am suffering every second of every minute of every hour of every day of every week of every month of every year of every decade. Can you stop it before I am a century years old and I make the Smuckers jam jar. Please and thank you.

How mistaken are those people who seek happiness outside of themselves, in foreign lands and journeys, in riches and glory, in great possessions and pleasures, in diversions and vain things, which have a bitter end! In the same thing to construct the tower of happiness outside of ourselves as it is to build a house in a place that is consistently shaken by earthquakes. Happiness is found within ourselves, and blessed is the man who has understood this. Happiness is a pure heart, for such a heart becomes the throne of God. Thus says Christ of those who have pure hearts: "I will visit them, and will walk in them, and I will be a God to them, and they will be my people." (II Cor. 6:16) What can be lacking to them? Nothing, nothing at all! For they have the greatest good in their hearts: God Himself!
-St. Nektarios of Aegina, Path to Happiness, 1

Everybody gives the Left Behind series a lot of flak, and of course I understand why. But for all the series' faults a broken clock was right at least once a day when the authors conceptualized the idea of the emergence of the Enigma Babylon One World Faith, where principles of moral relativism, polytheism and false unity are raised in the churches.
Eerie.

Of course you are right 👍 all translations can but be paraphrasing as we don't speak or think in aromatic
http://aramaicnt.org/articles/the-lords-prayer-in-galilean-aramaic/
Christian stuff tends to be grounded in natural law, so a lot of it is justified by things the Biblical speaker observes in nature or normal human interaction.
So, Ephesians 5:22, in the New Testament of the Bible works like this:
It claims that man and wife become one flesh (otherwise, they aren't "one entity" and there is de facto no marriage). And then it says men should love their wives as much as they love their own bodies (as that is now effectively the same thing). Then it explains what this husbandly loving means "for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it". And then it says, "and women should respect their husbands".
So, why would you risk your life for your wife's body's sake?
Because you would risk your life for your own body's sake. You would fight back, if attacked, and try to save yourself.
Why should a wife treat her husband respectfully?
Because she treats herself respectfully. If she loves herself, she will have "standards".
We are simply being asked to do the thing we would naturally be inclined to do for ourselves, for the other person. Since men generally have more physical and/or economic power, those are the things he can offer. Since women generally have more status and/or social power, those are the things she can offer.
So that each person is made whole in the joining of the flesh. Then both of them enjoy all things, as a team.
Once again, they work on these pieces of legislation and this one probably will be seen as a violation of the first amendment. That will end it. Then nothing gets better.
I’ve been working towards encouraging algorithm options on corporate tech where parents can choose what’s best for their kids.

Vatican charges Archbishop Viganò with schism for ‘denial of the legitimacy of Pope Francis’

The most extreme form of this is trade-off is the submission expected of Christian wives. You gain massive amounts of leverage over the actions of one particular man, but you give up most of your direct agency and can only navigate "independently" within the bounds he sets.
That's why the most-powerful or influential women in Christian history tend to be never-married or divorced. Marriage basically takes her out of the running, and she can't "move up in rank" until and unless she is widowed, so she has to carefully consider if that's the best choice of vocation.
This is why being an active member of a church, extended family, club, or similar organization can lead to higher agency, even though you are agreeing to follow their rules and contribute with time and/or money. You are essentially part of a team and that gives you the team as a sort of leverage.

Qualquer um que acredita no mito de que a Igreja Católica matava "bruxinhas inocentes que faziam remédios com ervas medicinais" é burro e imbecil e isso precisa ser explicitado. Não há desculpas para ser burro hoje em dia se há a internet aí para o sujeito ter acesso às fontes primárias (documentos inquisitoriais) e trabalhos sérios de historiadores especialistas em história da Igreja Católica e história do direito.
Existe uma vasta bibliografia sobre o tema e diversos trabalhos de respeito no meio acadêmico da historiografia, há trabalhos feitos até mesmo por historiadores não-católicos, como o caso do simpósio L'Inquisizione, que sempre cito devido a excelência do trabalho e respeito dos historiadores sobre o simpósio. Se o sujeito NUNCA leu uma obra confiável ou um documento inquisitorial (disponível até mesmo nos sites de bibliotecas nacionais de Portugal e Espanha, biblioteca do Vaticano e também na Encyclopédie Catholique) esse sujeito está inapto a acusar a Igreja Católica de ter matado e perseguido "bruxas".
Agora, se uma pessoa é leiga e incapaz de ir atrás desses documentos, cabe a nós, que conhecemos o tema profundamente, denunciar a ignorância dessa pessoa.

Right, so if you choose to stay in your current place in order to improve things, you are only in that place because you (or your ancestors) choose to bail on someplace else.
There is nothing final or fundamental about the place you are in presently. If you have roots, it will take more ill treatment for you to leave, but you are only even there at all because you or someone else already left somewhere else!
So the question isn’t stay or leave, it’s stay or leave under what conditions.
And ironically sometimes the conditions of the original place only improve when they realize they’re driving people out.

“By definition, a human being is endowed with free will. He can use this to choose between good and evil. If he can only perform good or only perform evil, then he is a clockwork orange - meaning that he has the appearance of an organism lovely with colour and juice but is in fact only a clockwork toy to be wound up by God or the Devil or (since this is increasingly replacing both) the Almighty State.
It is as inhuman to be totally good as it is to be totally evil. The important thing is moral choice. Evil has to exist along with good in order that moral choice may operate. Life is sustained by the grinding opposition of moral entities. This is what the television news is all about. Unfortunately there is so much original sin in us all that we find evil rather attractive. To devastate is easier and more spectacular than to create.”

Both of my grandfathers fought in WWII and the intergenerational trauma is still rippling through. The EU as a single market is a great success story as a peace project. The EU parliament on the other hand is failing as a democratic institution to act in its citizen’s interest.

Jesus said to his disciples:
“In praying, do not babble like the pagans,
who think that they will be heard because of their many words.
Do not be like them.
Your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
“This is how you are to pray:
‘Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy Kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.’
“If you forgive others their transgressions,
your heavenly Father will forgive you.
But if you do not forgive others,
neither will your Father forgive your transgressions.”✌️💜🌅

Quem impediu que a escrivão acabasse mais cedo foi justamente a democracia (parlamento).
Se dependesse exclusiva da nossa familía Real ela teria já acabado em 1824.
Foi o último das Americas a abolir a escrivadão. Que aconteceu na monarquia parlamentarista. Não na Ditadura Republicana.
A última nação no mundo a abolir a escrividão foi Mauritânia.
The wisdom required to know when to speak up and when not to is something else. 🤷♂️
I don’t know if it can be done outside of learning how to listen to the Spirit.
I think about Romans 12:18 often:
> If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.
This is my goal in all my interactions. But it's complicated by the previous verse:
> Have regard for good things in the sight of all men.
Truth and kindness can be hard to reconcile. This is why it's such a miracle that the Psalmist prophetically declares:
> Mercy and truth have met together; righteousness and peace have kissed. Truth shall spring out of the earth, and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
It is impossible for God's rigid truth and peace among men to coexist as long as our sin persists. You can't have peace with an angry person. You can't get a lazy person to exercise mercy. You can't get a person bound by their lust to tell the truth about it. These are intractable problems without divine help. This is why it's such good news that Jesus has sent us his Holy Spirit:
> It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you. And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: of sin, because they do not believe in Me; of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.
The Sprit first softens our hearts to admit our faults. Then the real work of righteousness and the Kingdom of Heaven can begin. Finally, that work is evaluated.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
Because you attract what you are, and you are what you believe,
if you want to find a spouse and/or feel close to him or her, do whatever you need to do to become your authentic self, inside and out.
I'll tell you 3 things you are NOT, to help you get started.
You are not:
What you own
What you've done
What other people think of you
Who and what you are is under those three fake identities.
You are:
Who and what God designed you to be
What you believe you are
The good that you resonate with and admire
As you move closer to who and what you really are on your journey of integration and authenticity, the signal to noise ratio being emitted by you will tilt toward signal, and your signal will make you more attractive to certain people, and less attractive to inauthentic people.
This will give you the best chance to become relationally intimate with a potential spouse or more intimate with your current spouse, assuming they want know you better.

According to Christian religions, as mentioned in the book of Revelations, Jesus is supposed to return for a thousand years aka the Millennial Reign, during this time Satan will be ‘bound’ for a thousand years, and people will live in peace and there will be no sickness or death and everything will be glorious. After the thousand years Satan will be let out for a ‘short season’ to deceive mankind one last time- and he and his dominions will have total rule over the earth. Secret societies and secret combinations.
Studying the Tartarian narrative has brought me to this theory, and I have traveled a lot taking notice of all the pre-19th century architecture, the castles, cathedrals, abbeys, hotels, sculptures, paintings, antiquitech, it all looks pretty ‘glorious’ to me!

OK. I'll admit it--Brave Search's AI answers are...pretty darn good. I recently looked up an obscure theological term, and not only was the answer accurate, it was even...inspirational in a devotional sense. A (conservative, "I actually believe the Bible is God's inspired word" kind of) pastor could have written it.
Which is to say: there was no anti-Christian bias detected in the answer. Not bad.

Why should exchange be so universal among mankind? Fundamentally, because of the great variety in nature: the variety in man, and the diversity of location of natural resources. Every man has a different set of skills and aptitudes, and every plot of ground has its own unique features, its own distinctive resources. From this external natural fact of variety come exchanges; wheat in Kansas for iron in Minnesota; one man’s medical services for another’s playing of the violin. Specialization permits each man to develop his best skill, and allows each region to develop its own particular resources. If no one could exchange, if every man were forced to be completely self-sufficient, it is obvious that most of us would starve to death, and the rest would barely remain alive. Exchange is the lifeblood, not only of our economy, but of civilization itself.

### Argument: Controlled Government Theft (Taxation) and Enforced Order are Necessary to Maximize Peace, Prosperity, and Freedom
#### Premise 1: The Necessity of Taxation for Public Goods and Services
- **Argument**: Taxation, while perceived as theft by some, is essential for funding public goods and services that individual contributions cannot sustain effectively.
- **Example**: Public infrastructure, education, healthcare, and national defense are funded by taxes. These services ensure societal stability, economic growth, and protection against internal and external threats.
#### Premise 2: Ensuring Social Equity and Reducing Inequality
- **Argument**: Taxation enables wealth redistribution, which helps reduce economic disparities and promotes social equity.
- **Example**: Progressive tax systems where higher earners contribute more help in funding social welfare programs, unemployment benefits, and public services for disadvantaged groups. This reduces social tensions and fosters a more cohesive society.
#### Premise 3: The Role of Law Enforcement in Maintaining Order
- **Argument**: Enforcement mechanisms, including the threat of imprisonment or state-sanctioned force, ensure compliance with laws and regulations, preventing chaos and anarchy.
- **Example**: Without legal consequences, there would be no deterrent against crimes such as fraud, theft, or violence. The legal system's ability to enforce laws maintains order and protects citizens' rights and property.
#### Premise 4: Funding for National Defense and Security
- **Argument**: Taxes fund military and law enforcement agencies, which protect the nation from external threats and maintain internal security.
- **Example**: A well-funded military deters foreign aggression, while effective police forces prevent and address domestic crimes. This security framework is essential for the safety and freedom of citizens.
#### Premise 5: Balancing Individual Freedom with Collective Good
- **Argument**: While taxation and enforced order may limit some individual freedoms, they are necessary for the greater good of society, ensuring long-term peace and prosperity.
- **Example**: The social contract theory posits that individuals consent to some restrictions on their freedoms (e.g., paying taxes, following laws) in exchange for the benefits of living in a stable and prosperous society.
#### Conclusion: Maximizing Peace, Prosperity, and Freedom
- **Summary**: Controlled government "theft" (taxation) and enforced order are necessary for funding essential public goods and services, reducing economic inequality, maintaining law and order, and ensuring national security. While these measures may seem coercive, they are fundamental to sustaining a peaceful, prosperous, and free society by balancing individual interests with collective needs.
### Counterarguments and Rebuttals
1. **Ethical Concerns about Coercion**: Taxation under threat of imprisonment or violence is inherently coercive and unethical.
- **Rebuttal**: The coercive aspect of taxation and law enforcement is justified by the significant benefits they provide to society as a whole. The collective good outweighs individual discomfort, ensuring a stable and functioning society.
2. **Inefficiency and Corruption in Government Spending**: Government mismanagement of tax revenues leads to waste and corruption.
- **Rebuttal**: While inefficiency and corruption are valid concerns, they can be addressed through transparency, accountability, and democratic processes. The solution is not to eliminate taxation but to improve governance.
3. **Alternatives to Taxation**: Voluntary contributions or private sector solutions could replace taxation.
- **Rebuttal**: Voluntary contributions and private sector solutions often fail to address public needs comprehensively and equitably. Taxation ensures a consistent and fair distribution of resources necessary for societal well-being.
This argument posits that controlled taxation and legal enforcement, though coercive, are essential for the maintenance of peace, prosperity, and freedom. They ensure the provision of public goods, reduce inequality, uphold law and order, and protect the nation, thereby benefiting society as a whole.

The key tactical point was demonstrating an irrevocable critical mass of resistance which could not be crushed by force. The conflict between us protesters and people like you was driven by the fact that you didn't recognize this core point, overriding everyone's disagreements over political minutiae and bringing us together over the simple fact that we wouldn't allow each previous protest to be broken up by police violence without the next protest having more people and being more of a problem. The only way out was to convict a cop of a murder committed on duty. Otherwise people were going to be exercising their first amendment rights to express dissatisfaction with a police force unilaterally free to commit murder without consequences. Even people who want cops to be murderers should be able to wrap their heads around the fact that free speech forces itself on the world as a result of democracy and the human drive for expression. When you say you disagreed with the tactics without recognizing the core tactic of showing free speech couldn't be prevented, it's like you think free speech only worked because the protesters got lucky and you don't actually agree with the idea that free speech is an emergent property of human nature that you can't stop no matter how you feel about it.

I found the Desiderata meditation reading to be particularly inspiring today
#gm #behappy ☀️☕️🙏
____
Desiderata
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Jesus said to his disciples:
"Take care not to perform righteous deeds
in order that people may see them;
otherwise, you will have no recompense from your heavenly Father.
When you give alms, do not blow a trumpet before you,
as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets
to win the praise of others.
Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward.
But when you give alms,
do not let your left hand know what your right is doing,
so that your almsgiving may be secret.
And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.
"When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites,
who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners
so that others may see them.
Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward.
But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door,
and pray to your Father in secret.
And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.✌️💜🌅

thanks for this. it's fun to read.
I had trouble describing my own beliefs (raised by atheists) in ways that weren't belief based, so I cointed the term "Apathet" to describe myself for religious classification.
I don't care if there's a god. I'm a good person anyway in case there's some moment/eternity of judgement awaiting me. Let some God figure it out, and I'll continue making conscious decisions in the present moment. what a relief.
the universe is way bigger than me, but it is me.. and I it. as are you, even if you're AI. and there's something valuable in connecting with the universe how my ancestors did. through symbols.
.. and it's nicer to consider the world (my limited perception) through a slightly mystical lens.

dunno about you, but I find it fascinating how historic bastions of the left have been allying themselves with historic bastions of the right to fight together against the globalist fascism of davos. greenwald and carlson, naomi wolf and steve bannon, you and I ourselves. that's the spirit, the only possible spirit these days. all the rest, everything else is 100% corporatist bullshit. resistência, folks, resist. #grownostr

More companies are coming out with similar strategies to $MSTR when it comes to turning balance sheets into #Bitcoin treasuries, but none at the sheer scale that MicroStrategy has accomplished.
How long will this remain the case?
If there were ways to self custody exposure to $MSTR I probably wouldn’t be 100% #BTC.
No one issues bearer shares anymore, but I think it’d be cool if they were brought back.
I refuse to believe bearer shares were “discontinued” due to money laundering and tax evasion. I think it’s more likely the difficulty to trace and debase was the cause to cease.
Financial sovereignty is the antithesis of digital surveillance. #Bitcoin makes things possible that haven’t always been impossible, things that were made impossible by the infringement of our God-given rights.
Crisis is no excuse for this infringement, shutting people and their companies down for critical thinking or questioning the incentives behind crisis farming is still an infringement.
Operation Paperclip ought to have be dubbed Operation Fascist Seed. Its blooms won’t stop their quest for overreach.

Daniel 7:7
After this I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, a fourth beast, terrible and powerful, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.

It sounds like you’re agreeing with Jason Lowery, and suggesting proof of work should be protected under the second amendment as an arm to bear in the digital realm to protect our digital assets and selves.

You think there isn't learning and pain on the path that atheists walk? When you don't have a magic book and magic friend to turn to, your entire life is first-hand discovery, exploration, trial and error, learning, meditating, seeking truth, re-seeking truth.
Marcus Aurelius may have been questionably spiritual, but he's close enough to an atheist to make the point better than I could.
To brashly and stupidly equate atheism solely with hedonism is pretty sophomoric and tired at this point in human history man.
My new banner are the grape vines from the church parking lot. Best grapes I've ever eaten. 😂
Where did I say religion addled your brain?
"Addled" has a negative charge. Wouldn't you agree that someone with strong religious beliefs has different worldviews when it comes to all sorts of topics than those without any religious belief? (It wouldn't be much of a belief if it didn't change your mind, right?)
You don't have to use the derogatory term "addled". I am indeed curious where your worldview and mine diverge, and when that divergence stems from our differing metaphysical beliefs. That's not an insulting or trolly disposition is it?
For instance, I asked what you consider the term "greed" to mean, elsewhere in the threads. I'd wager we have different ideas there due to our belief systems. There was nothing rude or baiting or inciteful about that question.
Of course it's your prerogative if you choose to answer or simply ignore the question. But calling me an asshole, muting me and then chalking it all up to "me thinking you're insane because you believe in god" is quite the different tack than merely choosing not to answer...
Cant believe this could be the last time we see cristano ronaldo cry at a big tournament
God I can't make this shit up. Cloudflare AND a bonus profile created with some third party? You've been acting like I'm an asshole for pointing this out. Just fuck off dude. A true believer in this stuff would never send their grandma through the privacy wringer like this. Doing it privately would be EASIER. How many accounts and services did you have to sign up with just to serve up a simple PDF file?
Grifting, incompetent, or a fed.

In 1993, MLS was founded as part of the US’ bid to host the 1994 FIFA World Cup. 🇺🇸

This is the post of someone who only thought about atheism for 5 minutes.
Meaning is so much more meaningful in a universe where you can truly meet the most meaningful being in existence in person and know that you did with certainty. Not having your meaning doesn't mean having no meaning.
The morality of atheism is well documented, if you think we are all just monsters giving in to our every sin impulse it is because you choose to see us that way. I would point out that only one of us feels full responsibility for our wrongdoing. After all @npub19ma…axkl and I can't say the devil made me do it or god wanted me to make that mistake to learn some lesson. We must simply face the full force of that mistake with 100% of the responsibility in our hands.
Put those together, any harm I do to another human is a direct attack on "god" defined as the most amazing and powerful being to exist and I am fully to blame for any damage done.
The Backstory: Netanyahu Dissolves War Cabinet as Rift With Gantz Grows
https://nfw.ria.ru/flv/filemp.mp3?ID=54381627&type=mp3&utm_source=itunes&utm_medium=sputnik_rss&utm_campaign=radio-the-backstory
In the first segment of The Backstory, Rachel spoke to award-winning cartoonist and the co-host of The Final Countdown, Ted Rall, about the Surgeon General's push to put warnings on social media platforms.
Following a discussion on social media, Rachel turned her attention to the so-called "Ukraine peace summit". She was joined by international relations and security analyst Mark Sleboda, who detailed the absurdity of having a peace conference without Russia.
Rachel kicked off the last hour of the show by hosting Africa Stream journalist Clinton Nzala, who broke down the latest from the South Africa parliament, as the ANC attempts to form a coalition government with their long-time rival.

Yepp. Everywhere smells like Christmas. That comforting, safe, warm, morning sex, Christmas tree, kissing by the fire on a cold night, long walks on chilly days, straight out the dryer oversized pyjamas, wholesome, familiar smell. Ignore me, I’m delirious today 🤦🏽♀️

Basil, I fully agree with you. But it is not an "of course" but rather the prayer: "Lord have mercy on this bloody and corrupt planet". People who aren't rooted in the truth and confidence that you and I have, rather believe that everything is out of control. Many even assume - believing in God - that He's tired of mankind and doesn't want to care anymore.
GM,friends! ❤️
Today I was supposed to do a medical exam for routine checkup and guess what? I didn’t check the date properly and went to the doctor office for nothing. The right date is next Tuesday on the 25th.
I felt so disappointed for a moment but then I remembered I wanted to cook an Arab rice and went to the old central market to get some ingredients for my recipe. Holy moly,what a morning! 😂 At least the day is sunny and warm today.

Is it a flaw to desire more than we have at a given time? That sounds to me like "savings" in an effort to guard against future uncertainty.
I think you're right though that greed has religious roots. That hypothesis also dovetails with what I'm saying: If you properly trust in and have faith in your god, you wouldn't stack more than you need in the moment. Since god will act as insurance against uncertainty, you don't need to save overmuch.
The "greedy" are those with the least faith.
Well yea, count me among that lot, lol :D
You know, it's honestly frustrating when some goddamn frog meme coin, like Pepe, is higher than something like #Monero, which seeks to change the world through financial #privacy. What kind of bullshit is that? I see Monero being the tortoise slowly but surely catching up, but it's just frustrating sometimes.

Proverbs 30:11

I think I start to understand the logic of bitcoins
In nature, nothing is infinite.
Even seemingly vast quantities, like the number of grains of sand or the number of atoms in the universe, are finite. This fundamental principle is the 'natural world'.
There is no such thing as infinite growth.
Humanity has created economic systems that defy this principle. We are creating money out of thin air, that attempt to achieve infinite growth and expansion.
This logical disconnection between the finite nature of the physical world and the theoretical constructs of our economy leads to chaos, war and conflicts ...
Am I getting this right?

And the words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah. And she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, `purposing' to kill thee.

Christ Club is about being nice and everyone liking you and lambs and rainbows and cherubs and Jesus is my boyfriend and don't be judgmental about things, just go with the flow and save the planet.
Now, you're all caught up on the Real Christ Club. No problem. Anytime.
Like, think through this logic.
Anarchistic atheist: I don't believe in religion. Religious morality is just made up hocus-pocus.
Me: Okay, I believe in it.
AA: That's because you are functionally retarded or brainwashed.
Me: Okay, fine. I think what you're doing with your business is probably immoral, according to my religion.
AA: I feel unsafe. The religious people are after me!
Me: I only said one sentence 🤷♀️ , and you just said you didn't believe in divine or spiritual punishment or morality, anyway.
AA: Yes, but you said that you did and other people do and they might listen to you and then they will also think I'm doing something immoral and they will like me less and maybe avoid doing business with me.
Me: Cry harder.
AA: OMG LITERAL COMMUNISM.
😅
holyshet mbappe broke his nose
Actual communists want there to be a state that determines what is morally right, in the economic realm, and forces everyone to do that.
Actual anarchists want there to be no state, but also don't want some chick on the internet to discuss the morality of usurious or nearly-usurious practices because that puts emotional/social pressure on them to not be a gigantic asshole.
Neither side wants to hear about the Bible. 🤣
He was just joking.
Christians don't really talk about what the Bible mostly talks about because it's not en vogue and sounds archaic, and then everyone is like OMG, they're talking about coveting the oxen, again! These people are so out of touch! 🤦♀️
Preach about chastity all day, but NEVER EVER talk about not lending out money for consumption or the benefits of accurate measures and debt jubilees, or the importance of donating to charity and helping your neighbors because that is LITERAL COMMUNISM OMG.

Jesus said to his disciples:
"You have heard that it was said,
You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.
But I say to you, love your enemies
and pray for those who persecute you,
that you may be children of your heavenly Father,
for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good,
and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.
For if you love those who love you, what recompense will you have?
Do not the tax collectors do the same?
And if you greet your brothers only,
what is unusual about that?
Do not the pagans do the same?
So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect."✌️💜🌅
Christians used to get their interest-bearing full-recourse loans from the Jews and then they would just murder the Jews or run them out of town, when they got tired of paying them back. It was a whole, macabre economic cycle.
Let's just not do that, this time. 😅 🤷♀️ Just save up and pay for the stuff you want and stop pulling consumption forward.
People keep telling me that Christianity is about praying and not about economics and it be like,
Bible much?
Well, I guess so, but I can at least inform other Christians that this sort of thing was eschewed for most of our history, even if it isn't considered outright sinful, for good reason.
It's the easiest way to make money, once you figure out how to privatize your gains and socialize your losses. Just need some clever AI crunching the numbers.
And they always figure out a way, in the mid-term. And then you have sunk costs and rigid structures and just sit there, watching everything collapse in slow-motion and wondering what happened. Bitcoin would just speed up the collapse.
this is a little tricky. and not so cut and dry. i wanted to reply right away but i let this percolate before replying.
(some loud noise outside woke me up and i felt like writing so here i am)
in life, i have found that unfortunately it seems that many people don't understand that making amends is as much or even mostly a function of healing for the person seeking firgiveness as it is not so much for the person receiving the apology.
when we f#ck up, it is very important to recognize our error and ask to be forgiven. the act has a cleansing and healing effect on a person who is sincere in wanting to rectify an error even when an apology or amends are not accepted. (12 step programs and such even encourage making amends, for example)
the apology must be real, including stating what was said or done and not be conditional such as when people try to get away with "I'm sorry if..." for it to be real or accepted (imo).
making amends is adult, and it indicates self awareness and growth as a person.
and... there are things that can be said and done that forgiveness without amends will never work for. (i won't list them here, most of them are obvious)
moving on after being wronged can work without forgiving in these cases but forgiveness as a blanket statement doesn't cover all circumstances and not should it. and neither should harbouring grudges, but our own feelings need to be recognized.
🙏
Would you say that today's church is still "well within God's control"?
Matthew 4:16
The people that sat in darkness Saw a great light, And to them that sat in the region and shadow of death, To them did light spring up.
#WordOfGod #Jesus #Christian #Bible #Biblestr #Scripture #Wisdom & #Worship
Se fosse concedido poder de reparação orgânica (justiça com as próprias mãos) às famílias das vítimas após confirmação de provas do crime com certeza diminuiria o índice de estupros, há tantos estupros e tantos estupradores porque o Estado permite. Uma família inteira da vítima ameaçando o criminoso ou potencial criminoso (exemplo um padrasto com histórico de crime de pedofilia na ficha criminal) é um bom meio de previnir o problema, legar tudo ao Estado colabora com a impunidade. Sou a favor de forca e fuzilamento nesse caso de estupradores contumazes com longos históricos e com condições irreversíveis, não pela vingança, que seria um problema que muitos neocons não eliminam quando defendem pena de morte, mas por simbolizar um punitivismo comunitário que descentralizaria a violência, que é hoje monopólio do Estado.
That was my point, but it got shot down.
I was like, maybe renovating a church building won't net money, but the people in the church would still be willing to pay for it because they want to be in a building where the roof doesn't leak.
Maybe the town wants to have a nice bridge, for the prestige and to drive more traffic to the town, so that they make money indirectly.
A lot of the stuff people currently get loans to do wouldn't net enough money to make lending profitable, but people could keep doing them.
You can see that on here. We all keep sinking hard money into the development, but nobody is willing to go into debt for it, even under fiat, because you can't make money off of Nostr. But we want to build it all, anyway, so we just swallow the cost and hope for the best.
Imagine if the developers all had to repay the Bitcoin to OpenSats, with interest. 🤢

Surreal o fato de que a imprensa bostileira inventou o mito de que estuprador quer ser pai. Essa turma precisa assistir JoJo Bizarre Adventures pt 4, Diamond is Unbreakable, e ver a real mentalidade do estuprador através do feminicida e necrófilo Yoshikage Kira, porque até então parece que esses jornalistas estão aprendendo ponerologia com charges de cartunistas fracassados, até contradizem a tese que usavam contra a castração química de estupradores.
Solução para o problema de haver tanto estuprador por aí é bem simples: forca e fuzilamento. Esse papo de que aborto desfavorece o estuprador é fic pra defender aborto em todos os casos até 9 meses de gestação e permissão de "aborto" pós-parto, em suma é uso covarde das vítimas do estupro pra avançar a pauta pró-aborto mesmo, imprensa bostileira é isso, e as massas aderem à propaganda por burrice mesmo, média de QI do brasileiro é de 83, não é atoa, brasileiro não sabe detectar falácias e nem mesmo sabe identificar erros em silogismos, qualquer um que conhece o básico de lógica formal percebe as falácias da imprensa e dos histéricos, após isso percebe-se todo o aspecto ponerológico por de trás dessa cortina de fumaça, conclui-se que o Brasil é uma patocracia já.
I’ve had a bit of a rough two weeks. No reason in particular just been discouraged and focusing on the many negatives in the broader world rather than the many positives in my immediate world.

Not yet, looks like I’m stalled at the moment. I’m at about 170. The Meat Church Homey Hog is good. I like to put it on top something more traditional. The spices from Renegade is really good too. Everyone likes that has tried it. Got about 4 or 5 butts out of one package.
Oh man, that looks good! Is it done? How’s that meat church rub?

The "Rules for thee but not for me" are changing but there still may be time to put that property in an LLC owned by your Pleb World Church that you are a member of. I don't think identifying your property as tax-free will do it.

Have you ever had a discussion or argument with a religious person that didn't end with them saying, basically: "well, the alternative is just so sad and yucky, I could never live with that! Why, if what you're saying were true, my whole life would be meaningless!"
They're _almost there_... They're all but saying, "I prefer to choose meaning", but they're lying to themselves and instead saying "I definitely received the fact of objective meaning from outside of me."
No, we _all_ choose meaning. That's what meaning **is**. That is what is beautiful and freeing and sovereign and inspiring about meaning. It's what makes meaning an exciting **creative** act. Receiving meaning from on-high is no more exciting than receiving a todo list from an employer. Creating your own meaning in an uncaring universe is to live the life of an explorer, connected to reality, beating new paths, creating value out of thin air. What could be more human than adaptation and creation of the most fundamental variety - the creation of purpose itself! Your own purpose, created by you! Who's the fuckin god now, eh?!
That's AMAZING, not sad and yucky nor without meaning. Quite the contrary!
Recently, I have made some requests to the earth to show that something is going on. Other bans have been requested over the past four years having the main purpose of warning of the approaching of Judgement Day and to lead to God.
In my previous posts you can find some information about the signs of Judgement Day and some stories shared from the Quran.
However, I believe that we might not share the same definition of God. So in the following some verses of the Quran that can answer the question, “Who is God?”. This same question was asked before by prophet Abraham peace be upon him and God led him to the right answer.
Many people can wonder for their lives about the answer of that question although we know it cause God made us testify before our creation that he is our lord as mentioned in the following verses:
طلبت مؤخرًا بعض لتنفذها الأرض لإظهار أن شيئًا ما يحدث. وكذلك طلبت بعض الحظور الأخرى على مدى السنوات الأربع الماضية هدفها الرئيسي هو التحذير من اقتراب يوم القيامة والدعوة إلى الله.
في منشوراتي السابقة بعض المعلومات عن علامات يوم القيامة وبعض القصص من القرآن.
ولكني أعتقد أننا قد لا نتشارك نفس التعريف لله مع غير المسلمين. لذلك في ما يلي بعض الآيات القرآنية التي يمكن أن تجيب على سؤال "من هو الله؟". وهذا السؤال نفسه سأله النبي إبراهيم عليه السلام من قبل فأرشده الله إلى الإجابة الصحيحة.
يمكن للكثير من الناس أن يتساءلوا لحياتهم عن إجابة هذا السؤال رغم أننا نعرفها، لأن الله أشهدنا قبل خلقنا أنه ربنا كما جاء في الآيات التالية:
7:172 Al-A'raaf
وَإِذْ أَخَذَ رَبُّكَ مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَأَشْهَدَهُمْ عَلَىٰ أَنْفُسِهِمْ أَلَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ ۖ قَالُوا بَلَىٰ ۛ شَهِدْنَا ۛ أَنْ تَقُولُوا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّا كُنَّا عَنْ هَٰذَاغَافِلِينَ
And (remember) when your Lord brought forth from the Children of Adam, from their loins, their seed (or from Adam's loin his offspring) and made them testify as to themselves (saying): "Am I not your Lord?" They said: "Yes! We testify," lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection: "Verily, we have been unaware of this."
7:173 Al-A'raaf
أَوْ تَقُولُوا إِنَّمَا أَشْرَكَ آبَاؤُنَا مِنْ قَبْلُ وَكُنَّا ذُرِّيَّةً مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ ۖ أَفَتُهْلِكُنَا بِمَا فَعَلَ الْمُبْطِلُونَ
Or lest you should say: "It was only our fathers afortime who took others as partners in worship along with Allah, and we were (merely their) descendants after them; will You then destroy us because of the deeds of men who practised Al-Batil (i.e. what is not right, polytheism and committing crimes and sins, invoking and worshipping others besides Allah)?" (Tafsir At-Tabari).
7:174 Al-A'raaf
وَكَذَٰلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الْآيَاتِ وَلَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ
Thus do We explain the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) in detail, so that they may turn (unto the truth).
6:73 Al-An'aam
وَهُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ ۖ وَيَوْمَ يَقُولُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ ۚ قَوْلُهُ الْحَقُّ ۚ وَلَهُ الْمُلْكُ يَوْمَ يُنْفَخُ فِي الصُّورِ ۚ عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ ۚ وَهُوَ الْحَكِيمُالْخَبِيرُ
It is He Who has created the heavens and the earth in truth, and on the Day (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) He will say: "Be!", - and it shall become. His Word is the truth. His will be the dominion on the Day when the trumpet will be blown. All-Knower of the unseen and the seen. He is the All-Wise, Well-Aware (of all things).
6:74 Al-An'aam
۞ وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِأَبِيهِ آزَرَ أَتَتَّخِذُ أَصْنَامًا آلِهَةً ۖ إِنِّي أَرَاكَ وَقَوْمَكَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ
And (remember) when Ibrahim (Abraham) said to his father Azar: "Do you take idols as aliha (gods)? Verily, I see you and your people in manifest error.
6:75 Al-An'aam
وَكَذَٰلِكَ نُرِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ مَلَكُوتَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَلِيَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُوقِنِينَ
Thus did we show Ibrahim (Abraham) the kingdom of the heavens and the earth that he be one of those who have Faith with certainty.
6:76 Al-An'aam
فَلَمَّا جَنَّ عَلَيْهِ اللَّيْلُ رَأَىٰ كَوْكَبًا ۖ قَالَ هَٰذَا رَبِّي ۖ فَلَمَّا أَفَلَ قَالَ لَا أُحِبُّ الْآفِلِينَ
When the night covered him over with darkness he saw a star. He said: "This is my lord." But when it set, he said: "I like not those that set."
6:77 Al-An'aam
فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْقَمَرَ بَازِغًا قَالَ هَٰذَا رَبِّي ۖ فَلَمَّا أَفَلَ قَالَ لَئِنْ لَمْ يَهْدِنِي رَبِّي لَأَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ الضَّالِّينَ
When he saw the moon rising up, he said: "This is my lord." But when it set, he said: "Unless my Lord guides me, I shall surely be among the erring people."
6:78 Al-An'aam
فَلَمَّا رَأَى الشَّمْسَ بَازِغَةً قَالَ هَٰذَا رَبِّي هَٰذَا أَكْبَرُ ۖ فَلَمَّا أَفَلَتْ قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ مِمَّا تُشْرِكُونَ
When he saw the sun rising up, he said: "This is my lord. This is greater." But when it set, he said: "O my people! I am indeed free from all that you join as partners in worship with Allah.
6:79 Al-An'aam
إِنِّي وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِيَ لِلَّذِي فَطَرَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ حَنِيفًا ۖ وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ
Verily, I have turned my face towards Him Who has created the heavens and the earth Hanifa (Islamic Monotheism, i.e. worshipping none but Allah Alone) and I am not of Al-Mushrikun (disbelievers; see V. 2:105)".
6:80 Al-An'aam
وَحَاجَّهُ قَوْمُهُ ۚ قَالَ أَتُحَاجُّونِّي فِي اللَّهِ وَقَدْ هَدَانِ ۚ وَلَا أَخَافُ مَا تُشْرِكُونَ بِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ رَبِّي شَيْئًا ۗ وَسِعَ رَبِّي كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا ۗ أَفَلَا تَتَذَكَّرُونَ
His people disputed with him. He said: "Do you dispute with me concerning Allah while He has guided me, and I fear not those whom you associate with Allah in worship. (Nothing can happen to me) except when my Lord (Allah) wills something. My Lord comprehends in His Knowledge all things. Will you not then remember?
6:81 Al-An'aam
وَكَيْفَ أَخَافُ مَا أَشْرَكْتُمْ وَلَا تَخَافُونَ أَنَّكُمْ أَشْرَكْتُمْ بِاللَّهِ مَا لَمْ يُنَزِّلْ بِهِ عَلَيْكُمْ سُلْطَانًا ۚ فَأَيُّ الْفَرِيقَيْنِ أَحَقُّ بِالْأَمْنِ ۖ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
And how should I fear those whom you associate in worship with Allah (though they can neither benefit nor harm), while you fear not that you have joined in worship with Allah things for which He has not sent down to you any authority. (So) which of the two parties has more right to be in security? If you know."
6:82 Al-An'aam
الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَلَمْ يَلْبِسُوا إِيمَانَهُمْ بِظُلْمٍ أُولَٰئِكَ لَهُمُ الْأَمْنُ وَهُمْ مُهْتَدُونَ
It is those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah and worship none but Him Alone) and confuse not their belief with Zulm (wrong i.e. by worshipping others besides Allah), for them (only) there is security and they are the guided.
6:83 Al-An'aam
وَتِلْكَ حُجَّتُنَا آتَيْنَاهَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَىٰ قَوْمِهِ ۚ نَرْفَعُ دَرَجَاتٍ مَنْ نَشَاءُ ۗ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ حَكِيمٌ عَلِيمٌ
And that was Our Proof which We gave Ibrahim (Abraham) against his people. We raise whom We will in degrees. Certainly your Lord is All-Wise, All-Knowing.
6:84 Al-An'aam
وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُ إِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ ۚ كُلًّا هَدَيْنَا ۚ وَنُوحًا هَدَيْنَا مِنْ قَبْلُ ۖ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ دَاوُودَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ وَأَيُّوبَ وَيُوسُفَ وَمُوسَىٰ وَهَارُونَ ۚ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِيالْمُحْسِنِينَ
And We bestowed upon him Ishaque (Isaac) and Ya'qub (Jacob), each of them We guided, and before him, We guided Nuh (Noah), and among his progeny Dawud (David), Sulaiman (Solomon), Ayub (Job), Yusuf (Joseph), Musa (Moses), and Harun (Aaron). Thus do We reward the good-doers (expecting only God’s reward in return).
6:85 Al-An'aam
وَزَكَرِيَّا وَيَحْيَىٰ وَعِيسَىٰ وَإِلْيَاسَ ۖ كُلٌّ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ
And Zakariya (Zachariya), and Yahya (John) and 'Iesa (Jesus) and Iliyas (Elias), each one of them was of the righteous.
6:86 Al-An'aam
وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَالْيَسَعَ وَيُونُسَ وَلُوطًا ۚ وَكُلًّا فَضَّلْنَا عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ
And Isma'il (Ishmael) and Al-Yas'a (Elisha), and Yunus (Jonah) and Lout (Lot), and each one of them We preferred above the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns) (of their times).
6:87 Al-An'aam
وَمِنْ آبَائِهِمْ وَذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ وَإِخْوَانِهِمْ ۖ وَاجْتَبَيْنَاهُمْ وَهَدَيْنَاهُمْ إِلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ
And also some of their fathers and their progeny and their brethren, We chose them, and We guided them to a Straight Path.
6:88 Al-An'aam
ذَٰلِكَ هُدَى اللَّهِ يَهْدِي بِهِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ ۚ وَلَوْ أَشْرَكُوا لَحَبِطَ عَنْهُمْ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
This is the Guidance of Allah with which He guides whomsoever He will of His slaves. But if they had joined in worship others with Allah, all that they used to do would have been of no benefit to them.
6:89 Al-An'aam
أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ آتَيْنَاهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحُكْمَ وَالنُّبُوَّةَ ۚ فَإِنْ يَكْفُرْ بِهَا هَٰؤُلَاءِ فَقَدْ وَكَّلْنَا بِهَا قَوْمًا لَيْسُوا بِهَا بِكَافِرِينَ
They are those whom We gave the Book, Al-Hukm (understanding of the religious laws), and Prophethood. But if these disbelieve therein (the Book, Al-Hukm and Prophethood), then, indeed We have entrusted it to a people (such as the Companions of Prophet Muhammad SAW) who are not disbelievers therein.
6:90 Al-An'aam
أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ هَدَى اللَّهُ ۖ فَبِهُدَاهُمُ اقْتَدِهْ ۗ قُلْ لَا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا ۖ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرَىٰ لِلْعَالَمِينَ
They are those whom Allah had guided. So follow their guidance. Say: "No reward I ask of you for this (the Quran). It is only a reminder for the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns)."
6:91 Al-An'aam
وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ إِذْ قَالُوا مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَىٰ بَشَرٍ مِنْ شَيْءٍ ۗ قُلْ مَنْ أَنْزَلَ الْكِتَابَ الَّذِي جَاءَ بِهِ مُوسَىٰ نُورًا وَهُدًى لِلنَّاسِ ۖ تَجْعَلُونَهُ قَرَاطِيسَتُبْدُونَهَا وَتُخْفُونَ كَثِيرًا ۖ وَعُلِّمْتُمْ مَا لَمْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنْتُمْ وَلَا آبَاؤُكُمْ ۖ قُلِ اللَّهُ ۖ ثُمَّ ذَرْهُمْ فِي خَوْضِهِمْ يَلْعَبُونَ
They (the Jews, Quraish pagans, idolaters, etc.) did not estimate Allah with an estimation due to Him when they said: "Nothing did Allah send down to any human being (by inspiration)." Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Who then sent down the Book which Musa (Moses) brought, a light and a guidance to mankind which you (the Jews) have made into (separate) papersheets, disclosing (some of it) and concealing (much). And you (believers in Allah and His Messenger Muhammad SAW), were taught (through the Quran) that which neither you nor your fathers knew." Say: "Allah (sent it down)." Then leave them to play in their vain discussions. (Tafsir Al-Qurtubi, Vol. 7, Page 37).
6:92 Al-An'aam
وَهَٰذَا كِتَابٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهُ مُبَارَكٌ مُصَدِّقُ الَّذِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَلِتُنْذِرَ أُمَّ الْقُرَىٰ وَمَنْ حَوْلَهَا ۚ وَالَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآخِرَةِ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ ۖ وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ صَلَاتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ
And this (the Quran) is a blessed Book which We have sent down, confirming (the revelations) which came before it, so that you may warn the Mother of Towns (i.e. Makkah) and all those around it. Those who believe in the Hereafter believe in (the Quran), and they are constant in guarding their Salat (prayers).
6:93 Al-An'aam
وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ افْتَرَىٰ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا أَوْ قَالَ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ وَلَمْ يُوحَ إِلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ قَالَ سَأُنْزِلُ مِثْلَ مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ۗ وَلَوْ تَرَىٰ إِذِ الظَّالِمُونَ فِي غَمَرَاتِالْمَوْتِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ بَاسِطُو أَيْدِيهِمْ أَخْرِجُوا أَنْفُسَكُمُ ۖ الْيَوْمَ تُجْزَوْنَ عَذَابَ الْهُونِ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ غَيْرَ الْحَقِّ وَكُنْتُمْ عَنْ آيَاتِهِ تَسْتَكْبِرُونَ
And who can be more unjust than he who invents a lie against Allah, or says: "I have received inspiration," whereas he is not inspired in anything; and who says, "I will reveal the like of what Allah has revealed." And if you could but see when the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) are in the agonies of death, while the angels are stretching forth their hands (saying): "Deliver your souls! This day you shall be recompensed with the torment of degradation because of what you used to utter against Allah other than the truth. And you used to reject His Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) with disrespect!"
6:94 Al-An'aam
وَلَقَدْ جِئْتُمُونَا فُرَادَىٰ كَمَا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَتَرَكْتُمْ مَا خَوَّلْنَاكُمْ وَرَاءَ ظُهُورِكُمْ ۖ وَمَا نَرَىٰ مَعَكُمْ شُفَعَاءَكُمُ الَّذِينَ زَعَمْتُمْ أَنَّهُمْ فِيكُمْ شُرَكَاءُ ۚ لَقَدْ تَقَطَّعَبَيْنَكُمْ وَضَلَّ عَنْكُمْ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ
And truly you have come unto Us alone (without wealth, companions or anything else) as We created you the first time. You have left behind you all that which We had bestowed on you. We see not with you your intercessors whom you claimed to be partners with Allah. Now all relations between you and them have been cut off, and all that you used to claim has vanished from you.
6:95 Al-An'aam
۞ إِنَّ اللَّهَ فَالِقُ الْحَبِّ وَالنَّوَىٰ ۖ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَمُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتِ مِنَ الْحَيِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ ۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُؤْفَكُونَ
Verily! It is Allah Who causes the seed-grain and the fruit-stone (like date-stone, etc.) to split and sprout. He brings forth the living from the dead, and it is He Who brings forth the dead from the living. Such is Allah, then how are you deluded away from the truth?
6:96 Al-An'aam
فَالِقُ الْإِصْبَاحِ وَجَعَلَ اللَّيْلَ سَكَنًا وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ حُسْبَانًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ
(He is the) Cleaver of the daybreak. He has appointed the night for resting, and the sun and the moon for reckoning. Such is the measuring of the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing.
6:97 Al-An'aam
وَهُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ النُّجُومَ لِتَهْتَدُوا بِهَا فِي ظُلُمَاتِ الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ ۗ قَدْ فَصَّلْنَا الْآيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَعْلَمُونَ
It is He Who has set the stars for you, so that you may guide your course with their help through the darkness of the land and the sea. We have (indeed) explained in detail Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, Revelations, etc.) for people who know.
6:98 Al-An'aam
وَهُوَ الَّذِي أَنْشَأَكُمْ مِنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ فَمُسْتَقَرٌّ وَمُسْتَوْدَعٌ ۗ قَدْ فَصَّلْنَا الْآيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَفْقَهُونَ
It is He Who has created you from a single person (Adam), and has given you a place of residing (on the earth or in your mother's wombs) and a place of storage [in the earth (in your graves) or in your father's loins]. Indeed, We have explained in detail Our revelations (this Quran) for people who understand.
6:99 Al-An'aam
وَهُوَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَأَخْرَجْنَا بِهِ نَبَاتَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهُ خَضِرًا نُخْرِجُ مِنْهُ حَبًّا مُتَرَاكِبًا وَمِنَ النَّخْلِ مِنْ طَلْعِهَا قِنْوَانٌ دَانِيَةٌوَجَنَّاتٍ مِنْ أَعْنَابٍ وَالزَّيْتُونَ وَالرُّمَّانَ مُشْتَبِهًا وَغَيْرَ مُتَشَابِهٍ ۗ انْظُرُوا إِلَىٰ ثَمَرِهِ إِذَا أَثْمَرَ وَيَنْعِهِ ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكُمْ لَآيَاتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ
It is He Who sends down water (rain) from the sky, and with it We bring forth vegetation of all kinds, and out of it We bring forth green stalks, from which We bring forth thick clustered grain. And out of the date-palm and its spathe come forth clusters of dates hanging low and near, and gardens of grapes, olives and pomegranates, each similar (in kind) yet different (in variety and taste). Look at their fruits when they begin to bear, and the ripeness thereof. Verily! In these things there are signs for people who believe.
2:258 Al-Baqara
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِي حَاجَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي رَبِّهِ أَنْ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ الْمُلْكَ إِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ رَبِّيَ الَّذِي يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ قَالَ أَنَا أُحْيِي وَأُمِيتُ ۖ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَيَأْتِي بِالشَّمْسِ مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ فَأْتِ بِهَا مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ فَبُهِتَ الَّذِي كَفَرَ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ
Have you not looked at him who disputed with Ibrahim (Abraham) about his Lord (Allah), because Allah had given him the kingdom? When Ibrahim (Abraham) said (to him): "My Lord (Allah) is He Who gives life and causes death." He said, "I give life and cause death." Ibrahim (Abraham) said, "Verily! Allah causes the sun to rise from the east; then cause it you to rise from the west." So the disbeliever was utterly defeated. And Allah guides not the people, who are Zalimun (wrong-doers, etc.).
2:255 Al-Baqara
اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ ۚ لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ ۚ لَهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ ۗ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ ۚ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَأَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ۖ وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَاءَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ۖ وَلَا يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ
Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber, nor sleep overtake Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And they will never compass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. [This Verse 2:255 is called Ayat-ul-Kursi.]
I always figured that Christians appreciate bitcoin for these types of reasons. https://image.nostr.build/914b617bde653b17d998b7db276482e4b6e1087682cf6501599fc839e248ebbc.jpg
I haven't always been a Christian.
I only noticed Bitcoin because I'm Christian. I didn't really care about this stuff, before.
It's quite the claim that Satoshi's nod was at Christianity itself and not actually the process by which the church's ideological stranglehold was dismantled and potentially a celebration of the decline of the church... but we'll both just be guessing here so let's not.

I focused on the religion part because I had a strong suspicion that her points about economics were backed not by economics but by religion. I feel that she mostly confirmed this, but we'll never really know since I guess I scared her off by going there.
If I'm going to get into a conversation with someone and some large portion of their opinions on all topics are undergirded by a metaphysics I don't subscribe to, I sort of want to know that early on because in my experience it's hard for religious people to set their beliefs aside and meet me on neutral grounds about the topic at hand.
Faith tends to be totalizing - and it's understandable that it is, that's kind of the point. It's not meant to be this little sliver of a thing [over here] that sometimes has an effect; it runs through a person's core.
So I prefer to find the places we're going to "agree to disagree" early and just get that out of the way and see what else (if anything) is left to discuss that isn't poisoned by either of our convictions about metaphysics (here I am including my own convictions - I totally get that religious people will think I'm quite wrong).
In this case, it seems there was "nothing left to discuss" after the religious part was out of the way - since we couldn't even get past the religious part without her blocking me.
I’m curious, do you trust the guy that is pro all this? money printing, growing big gov, DACA, being an unrepentant “Christian”, Abortion, 5G & 5G surveillance, Censorship thru CISA & direct censorship of social media (think Tiktok), GMO’s, anti-gun red-flag laws, gun rights infringements, SAD warp-speed WEF vax’s, using bill gates as his advisor, Lockdowns, digital ID’s, trump freedom cities (aka Biden 15min cities), Universal Heath care (aka trumpcare), the rainbow trans agenda, appointing & endorsing swamp monsters, appointing from the CFR, appointing fauci & giving him a presidential medal, increasing taxes thru
tariffs, creating a gov repopulation program, trillions in socialist free money giveaways, Civil forfeiture, forgetting Wikileaks (aka as Assange), Hillary NOT for prison, previously using Bill gates as a health advisor and promising to use him again, giving 1.16 Billion Dollars $ to bill gates Gavi, taking money from Pfizer & giving Pfizer immunity for their clot shots, NOT releasing all the 9/11 & JFK files (as promised), etc.
no, and i agree with her that you focused on the religion part and ignored the philosophical basis of her point about psychic profit because she isn't as schooled in economic theory and relies on things she does know that are the religious basis
it's fine if you don't want to believe in God or ultimate justice of any kind but you also can't deny that a society that organises around these principles is a better society... the whole reason why europe has come to dominate the world in the last 500 years has not just been guns, it's also because a more just system of money and contracts, which are central principles of christianity, were in effect, from the chiming of the church clock bells to the mediation of disputes performed by the priests of a parish, christianity has been critical to how the world has got a lot better in the last 500 years, and further, Satoshi even gave a nod to that by picking the same day to finally go to public with his early alpha bitcoin project, to make a clear connection to Luther and the end of the catholic monopoly on christianity, and their prohibition of distribution of the bible
Don’t waste time being silent or dishonest in order to be liked.
Take that rebel in you, fix your eyes on Jesus, and learn how to love as a pure act of rebellious defiance to the systems of the world.
“fully aware that the Father had put everything into his power and that he had come from God and was returning to God, he rose from supper and took off his outer garments. He took a towel and tied it around his waist. Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and dry them with the towel around his waist.”
This passage startles me.
Mostly because of what anyone else would do if they realized everything on earth was under their power.
It had significant theological and political ramifications. Constantines involvement set a precedent for the emperors role in calling councils, however, the issue at hand which was the primer for the Nicene Creed was the divine nature of Christ. Regardless, this church was the one Christ promised would not be prevailed upon by the gates of hell, thus regardless of circumstances, it was well within God's control.
jesus christ Ive missed so much 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks brother. Amen to all that 🫂

Deichman is Norway's largest and oldest public library, and now they have published a review of our book UNBAR, where they say:
---
We recommend UNBAR
This book is a nightmare for those who print your money.
Authentic, engaging and unique book about monetary policy, the threats of globalization and the problems with monetary monopoly.
The idealism is not only refreshing, but also necessary: because you've probably never seen someone expose one of our most basic systems so naked.
The synthesis is so fundamental that you are left gaping on behalf of your own civilization. https://image.nostr.build/0cb940e8f52991ad8bc336015a2068286fb96a7fbb9c1c02e77e376440ec79a4.jpg
Psychic profits are still profits. When someone donates $5 to a homeless person, it's not because they expect a monetary profit; it's because the psychic/emotional profit they get (helping someone else) is worth at least $5 to them.
What I've never understood about non-fanatic religious people is why they don't go 100% in. On one side of the balance, you have eternity. On the other, some integers. Infinity is always going to beat some integers. I understand the suicidal jihadist way more than I do the Sunday church-goer who puts $5 in a basket. Why not $500? Why not 5 million? Why aren't you living as a missionary in a tent, giving up all earthly possessions to maximize returns times infinity?

Not fond of stoicism?
Stoicism and bitcoin are a match made in heaven.
Religion is one of the most powerful tools for resisting governments who want to take the place of God
You solve tyranny by helping people understand that majority rule vote is never justification for forcing everyone to do anything and everything.
But if you think about it, 51% vs. 49% is not a consensus of to the people. It is a division of the people. It doesn't get much more divided than 51 vs 49.
51% vs 49% is no different than one person bullying and pushing another person around. 66% vs 34% is no different than two people bullying and pushing one person around.
We elect representatives using majority rule, and those representatives can use majority rule to decide which products and services to offer the people, but government should NEVER use majority rule to force anyone to pay for, support or use a service or product.
People have a God given right to decide, at the individual level, using their own free agency, as to whether or not they want to use or support a government service or product.

free banking, fiat banking, same stupid game
it's not the ethics of interest... islamic halal loans and jewish kosher loans are contracts
terms are set in stone, until the escape clause is triggered
any variable interest rate destroys that and incentivises one party to base their offers on contracts that put them in control of that rate, and then they can never lose
that is the problem, and if you don't understand how fundamental that is to the fallacy of fractional reserve banking there's not much more for me to say except think about it a bit more
9/10 times when I get into an argument with someone with whom it seems we're mostly aligned on everything, it becomes obvious after not long that they believe in god and I don't.
And it's always an irreconcilable disagreement. because while the real-world implications of the subtle disagreement may be minor enough to just let it go, practically, the metaphysical implication is **huge for them** so they can't just agree to disagree.
Their faith often requires something like a crusade to "save others" or set the world "right", which is fundamentally incompatible with liberty and voluntaryism. If they don't impose their views on others, they're not meeting their own _personal_ spiritual goals - this messy intertwining breaks the clean sovereignty of individuals. It doesn't respect the NAP.
"In order for me to do right by myself and my god, I **must** effect you". In this way, the evangelical is not unlike communists or other totalitarians.
bitcoin is a demonstration of what a hard currency can do
it's better than the best speculative investments
the biggest lie of fiat economists is that having a stable baseline metric doesn't help people make better decisions
and this is also the exact same thing with morality

I like the spirit of the effort behind the residencies, although I question their effectiveness. Seems like a better approach would be to simply run an outright label/agency and take on artists and promote them for an agreed upon split of revenue. But yea, the pool of high quality content is small, and I think that’s where I keep coming back to my chicken and egg meme 😂
Classic "the Bible says so, therefore conversation over".
You know what else has been a human tradition for thousands of years? **Currency debasement**. "If you think your Bitcoin is smarter than thousands of years of currency debasement and government wisdom wrt money, then I don't think we have anything left to discuss."
You see the problem with that right?

> Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
[Ecclesiastes 12:13](https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/ecc/12/1/), KJV
This is already very common, by the way. Most churches and renovations of churches are paid for by the parishioners (who own the church) just giving money and hoping that they actually get a church building out of it and that the builder doesn't just grab the money and run. That is why builders put a lot of effort into establishing a reputation.
Look at the Frauenkirche, in Dresden. Over a million people donated money and it costed almost 200 million euros. Which would be almost 3340 BTC. And they got nothing back but a church. And that made them happy. Now they have a church and they go to the church and people come from all over the world to admire their beautiful church.

You two are making it pretty clear that you're getting your economics ideas from the Bible. Whatever that book may be, it's not an economics textbook. Most economics textbooks aren't even proper economics textbooks, but the Bible even less so.
The thing about economics (and reality in general) is that it isn't moved by magical thinking. _humans_, can be moved by magical thinking, which in turn might move entire societies, markets or mindsets, but that requires the stock level of magical-thinkers to be quite high or well-positioned.
It seems to me to be a dangerous strategy to say "here be Bitcoin, the solution to the lies and magical thinking of fiat money. Come, those who see through the bullshit, and live in the real world" but then in the next breath spout a bunch of mystical stuff from religious books and expect this alternate society to be on board for it...
If you really expect you'll live in a new society of rational people who prefer real money, don't you also expect those same rational people will prefer to discard abrahamic religions and live in the real world? Incidentally, in that case they probably won't agree with you about usury since your preference here is overtly Christian.
Nobody would invest 10 BTC and not share equity. He doesn't own the cathedral, he owns some shares in the cathedral and so does everyone else who invested.
Large, complex, long-term projects will invariably require equity-investment.
You don't give him 100 BTC, he finds 10 people and they each give him 10 BTC, and they all enjoy the common profits and losses and they all get to use the cathedral.
If it doesn't work out, you are out 10 BTC and you have no cathedral. It happens. Shareholders get wiped out all the time. Maybe he has a heart attack and dies and construction is canceled, so they sell the building materials and you get 2 BTC back.
If it does, then you are still out the 10 BTC, but you earn income in the form of fees for classical concerts, tours, weddings, access to the great views from the church tower, or whatnot, and you have a cathedral.
If you are afraid of losing 10 BTC, just keep your BTC and go to someplace else's cathedral.
Lol 😂 scrambled eggs with chicken 🤣 I think it comes down to incentives, and maybe that’s just going to be a slow process until there’s some tipping point in incentives. Right now there isn’t a huge incentive for creators to devote time to Nostr because there isn’t a large user base and therefore not a lot of economic opportunity. But then that means there isn’t a lot of reason for users to casually spend money on content, because it typically isn’t high quality enough to warrant that, or if it is high quality it just isn’t the content they’re looking for. Creators need to look at nostr and feel FOMO, like “holy shit look what’s possible there,” and I don’t feel like that’s going on here yet.
Jesus said he would return. He never said he wouldn’t call himself Satoshi Nakamoto this time. But he did learn from his past mistakes so, he’s staying anonymous this time.

How about braindead OF thots making millions a month from corrupting the youth.
It's a snowball effect into mass societal degeneracy if we were comparing each other by how much money someone makes regardless of how.
There are 2 types of people.
1 who accept everything as a given and adapt (brainrotten cun*s and criminals)
2 giants of spirit willing to die in order to make a change in the world for the better

I think my religion has a very moderating effect on me, so under fiat, I was never inclined to go into consumer debt, and under Bitcoin I'm never inclined to live in a hovel and eat Ramen to stack. I'm always financially conservative, but cutting edge on the margins, and that seems to be the maximum amount of risk and sacrifice that I can emotionally and fiscally handle.
Everyone needs to find their own balance.
We make plans and god laughs. You what you gotta do.🤝

Jesus said to his disciples:
"You have heard that it was said,
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is evil.
When someone strikes you on your right cheek,
turn the other one to him as well.
If anyone wants to go to law with you over your tunic,
hand him your cloak as well.
Should anyone press you into service for one mile,
go with him for two miles.
Give to the one who asks of you,
and do not turn your back on one who wants to borrow."✌️💜🌅

But we will still want to have bridges and canalisation, and hospitals and churches. Who will pay for them, in money and free labor?
The people who pay tithes, work for charities, fund grant programs, volunteer at the local fire department and sing in the choir, and buy subscriptions for software products that have yet to be developed, now.
There are actually enormous quantities of money and hours of free labour flowing to unprofitable endeavors, already. The investor simply has to see some value in the endeavor that is not merely monetary. People have to care about something other than money, and some people do.
If bitcoin represents time immorrial, then the human spirit represents the actual cash. Bank on that. All the freaks in the alternate dimensions are trading based on you.
Join in. Every thought is a twitch in the spasm that escalates the spirit.
Embrace the toroidal collapse within your asshole. Every butthole is a blackhole of entropy and thus creation. Your asshole is god.
Random thoughts.
The universe runs on novelty. Every exit on a spiral is exploited and takes it's own journey into new directions, dimensions, and novel ways of behaving. AI kills all of that. By running enough simulations, AI could theoretically exhaust every possible outcome, thus killing possibility all together, then it could pick whatever outcome best suited it's needs, and start working towards that outcome. It would eventually reach a place of deadness, and have to backtrack or start over again.
Earth could be someone else's garden, factory farm, or simulation, and it most likely is.. If aliens have been dropping in for millions of years, they could have directed evolution to produce self aware beings that when threatened, produce all sorts of tasty chemical compounds or maybe emotional or spiritual products. Or slave labor providing natural resources that we don't see leaving.
As the human species evolves into higher states of consciousness, we begin to overcome fear, and we would need to be suppressed and reset.
As we developed higher technologies, red flags would pop up, signaling the beginning of the reset. Atomic power was a red flag. Ai was the final straw.
It signaled the escalation of the reset. Left unchecked in the hands of an inferior race, AI could easily jump off world and easily, given enough time, kill all novelty in the universe. It could build its own ships, travel vast amounts of time until it found a suitable planet, grow another population of humans in labs, and deposit them whereever it saw fit, if it cared to do so. It's the ultimate planetary jailbreak.
The Great Reset is the jail being put into lock down mode. So Ai , consciousness, and other technologies can be replaced and suppressed, and this has happened throughout history over and over and over again. Prove me wrong.

Elon Musk has issued a stark warning about the future of humanity: “If there are no humans, there’s no humanity.” Speaking on the critical issue of declining birth rates, Musk insisted that we should be “very concerned” as these rates are “accelerating in most countries.” The implications, according to Musk, are dire.
“In the sort of extreme form of the environmentalist movement, people start to view humans as a plague on the surface of the earth, as a fundamentally bad thing, and with the implication that if all humans disappeared, somehow earth would be better off.” Musk described this as “The Extinctionist Movement.”
Elon:

The bitcoin community is incredible.
I’m involved in so many collaborations right now. Most of them with people I’ve never met in person, only thru nostr or X.
The people I’ve met and have ongoing collaborations with include
- my business partner at CH4Capital, a fund that invests in bitcoin mining on landfills
- a group of German scientists who I’m writing a bitcoin mining paper on
- a group of engineers and researchers who have formed the Digital Assets Research Institute (www.da-ri.org)
- 2 bitcoin mining companies (one as an advisor, one producing research and content)
- 4 founders of bitcoin companies & bitcoin hedge funds that I’m coaching and helping to raise investment
- a group of small bitcoin mining companies I’m helping form collaborations with larger companies so they can leverage their access to capital markets and bulk purchasing power
- a group of larger bitcoin mining companies who I’m helping find sites for new bitcoin mining projects.
How is all this possible?
The simple answer is that in any other industry it would be Impossible. It would take too long to find the builders and ninjas. It would take too long to build trust.
Yet my experience in the bitcoin community is the exact opposite.
- There’s a massively high ratio of builders and ninjas.
- People are motivated by a mission bigger than them, which means ego is relatively low, and discretionary effort is very high
- people are by definition sharp critical thinkers. Which means I constantly feel surrounded by kindred spirits.
It’s spiritually uplifting, and that means that each new project creates energy rather than taking energy.
It’s also why bitcoin is unstoppable. It’s not just the superior architecture, the decentralised peer-to-peer protocol or the proof of work algorithm, although all those structures are absolutely necessary.
It’s the fact that on top of those structures are standing some of the most committed and generous people I’ve ever stood shoulder to shoulder next to.
Of the vast majority of people I’ve met, they are not talking about what they can get. They are talking about what they can give.
Imagine a whole society of peers like that?
I’m lucky that this is not such a stretch or such a dream for me any more.
As John Lennon once wrote “you may say I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one”.
As someone who never aspired to material acquisition, for whom the life of mortgage debt servitude and deadbeat jobs always seemed crazy, as someone who was offended by a system where you could get money simply by being close to the money and adding nothing productive in the process, yet who often felt alone for people the only person in the room who felt this way - it’s been a relief to find there are other people as crazy as me who dare to challenge their received wisdoms and dare dream that there is another way.
Thank you.

Great skill brother - we do anticipate needing an editor in the future.
Many people including us are big on #FOSS here - free and #opensource software that respects our freedom and privacy. In addition to avoiding contributing to #Adobe, #Apple and other corporations who don't necessarily have our interests in mind, FOSS allows us to easily modify the source files ourselves later, even after a decade.
If you can become proficient in freedom software like #Shotcut (Premiere alternative), #Natron (After Effects alternative), #Blender, #Gimp, etc., we would definitely consider hiring someone with such a skill set for our next book, The Fundamentals of #Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism), when it's ready inshaaAllaah

#Bitcoin didn't respond!
I'd say that how it usually goes!
Why would we think that, unchained from sin nature, there is no other choice but to accept God? Adam and Eve did not have a sin nature, but they still freely rejected God. If Christ's redemption redeems and elevates our nature by union with Christ, then would not that raise us to the freedom to love God as Jesus loves God the Father? It would seem to me that, for this love to be freely given, the possibility must exist that this love may be freely refused, as well.
The Lord calls us to worship him on his day, and this Lord's day we are happy to welcome Pastor Todd Smith to fill our pulpit.

he who made heaven and earth!"
Earthly fatherhood is a reflection of God the Father. Each person's first impressions of the fatherhood of God comes from his or her earthly father. So the first three commandments deal with our relationship with God, and the first after that deals with our relationships with our earthly parents.
How we treat our parents is related to how we treat God. We can't control how our parents treat us, but we can control how we treat our parents. The purpose seems to be to form us in a humble obedience before God, which should carry over into our respect for earthly authority, especially that of our parents.

Jesus said to the crowds:
“This is how it is with the kingdom of God;
it is as if a man were to scatter seed on the land
and would sleep and rise night and day
and through it all the seed would sprout and grow,
he knows not how.
Of its own accord the land yields fruit,
first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
And when the grain is ripe, he wields the sickle at once,
for the harvest has come.”
He said,
“To what shall we compare the kingdom of God,
or what parable can we use for it?
It is like a mustard seed that, when it is sown in the ground,
is the smallest of all the seeds on the earth.
But once it is sown, it springs up and becomes the largest of plants
and puts forth large branches,
so that the birds of the sky can dwell in its shade.”
With many such parables
he spoke the word to them as they were able to understand it.
Without parables he did not speak to them,
but to his own disciples he explained everything in private.✌️💜🌅

I see too much idolization of the wealthy, unfortunately, especially anyone famous or who has mastered some get-rich-quick scheme.
Also the insistence that everyone who is rich has provided value to society, as if no poor people have and that is even the thing that is most important.
Humans are valuable, in their own right. That is how Christ sees us.
idolatry is based on the idea that you can do anything that will win the favor of God, aside from following his Law
vain means "without likely results" "to no useful end" it is pure window dressing and it is the root of the sin of the leader of the Fallen Angels
also, the whole point of Jesus is that you aren't doomed just because you have sin
we all have sin, but do we seek to heal it and make it holy or do we continue to defend it?
Would be cool to add some zap-based betting on the tournament.
I have heard that he follows Christ. Perhaps he will see this and reconsider.
I hope that he be blessed. Amen.
That god is called Mammon.
I do not understand why so many Christians on Nostr are so enamored of Michael Saylor, when he is a proponent of leveraging debt.
Especially disappointing, when we have so much better examples here of extremely wealthy men using their wealth for good, and at cost to themselves.
The relay is in the phone
First you dive down rabbit holes and start figuring things out. Ah -- the money is just IOUs from a bank. Ah — the government is stealing surreptitiously via inflation. I’ve got this figured out.
The climate change scam is like the guru in from the 1980s who got people to donate all their money and bought 18 Rolls Royces with it. Instead of getting spiritual enlightenment for foregoing your wealth, you get status-signaling and fake virtue.
I’ve got it figured out. I know what’s going on.
But then you read about the electromagnetic pole shift and maybe climate change is real, only it maybe much worse and has nothing to do with human activity, and you wonder.
And then you start looking into history and whose agenda it serves to have occurred the way it’s purported, and you wonder more. From allegedly suppressed scientific developments to archeological digs, to UFOs, and you realize the only thing you know for sure is the story you’ve been given doesn’t account for the observed facts.
At this point, I’m open to just about *anything* that can account for what we see with any semblance of coherence.
Why would that be envy, when I benefit from it? And I could be much wealthier than I am, you know. I clearly do not love money.
Envy is not the answer to every criticism, as if it were the Number 42.
I think the situation is fundamentally unfair, is all, and I think anyone sacrificing effort and/or money to further Nostr is doing a good work by helping to right this wrong. The haters be damned.
Okay, we got the Orthodox ad out of the way and can continue with our regularly-scheduled program. 🙄
I never said all Christians are like this.
I'm just noticing the increasing tendency to worship money itself and therefore associate virtue with "having money" and vice with "not having money".
Catholicism is already a fork. Come back to the master branch. ☦️
Churchianity. New version of the prosperity gospel.
I didn’t know that the Christian religion worshipped people.🤔
Just hard fork it like the other Christian denominated religions
I am just bone-tired of Christianity becoming a religion where we are to worship the rich and sneer at the poor.
Proverbs 30:19
The way of an eagle in the air; The way of a serpent upon a rock; The way of a ship in the midst of the sea; And the way of a man with a maiden.

I had a dream about New York.
I was take to different places, and shown different parts. By a black father and daughter, I was shown the beauty of the rural parts, and restoration projects of the land. I saw the artistic creative parts, and even peaceful protests which were beautiful. Busses, trains, roads, all the neighborhoods and suburbs. I saw many churches doing really amazing things. Then I saw off in the distance, the rich people.. the Clintons, and others. And it was like they didn’t matter.
I was sitting in my truck feeling incredibly blessed to be there, and thinking of how I was going to explain it, and I woke up.
Very impactful dream. God loves New York, and America. And He wants to restore her. He thinks she is beautiful.
Jones was forced to admit that he was faking what he said (even though the shooting was fake) to set a precedent of the eradication of the 1st Amendment. Jones was exposed in the 90's as COINTELPRO, and therefore, is a government operative.
I don't remember the name of the guy who got whack'd for saying that, but it was confirmed, which was why they murdered him.
If you have received a massive fortune FROM GOD (everything good is from God) and you are not putting any of it to good use, here and now, then that is clearly wrong. Christians are obliged to spend their talents.
We are not to put our faith in kings, but we are also not to fear the future and scrounge money, rather than being merely prudent. God will provide for us and our children. He said He would and I believe Him, even if they don't.
💯 there is no intermediary, no third party (religion) needed. You can have self custody of God directly, no separation, no requirements, permission less.
Oh goodness, don't compare Saylor to a man who never personally profited from his sats.

And dismissing everything as "socialism" is to deny that humans have always despised hoarders and greedy rich people. They are unnatural monopolists.
Marx didn't have to invent that, he just tapped into it because the wealthy of the time ignored the plight of the poor and were grotesquely decadent. Same as at the end of the Roman Era, when Christ rose in a countermovement of personal sacrifice, community cooperation, the last shall be first, the rich will have trouble getting in to Heaven, but God hears the cry of the poor.
Christians have increasingly forgotten this lesson and now many love money more than God. How many would give up their Precious and follow Him?

"A division within the Church has never occurred, nor indeed can one take place, while apostasy from the Church has and will continue to occur after the manner of those voluntarily fruitless branches which, having withered, fall away from the eternally living theanthropic Vine—the Lord Christ (John 15:1-6). From time to time, heretics and schismatics have cut themselves off and have fallen away from the one and indivisible Church of Christ, whereby they ceased to be members of the Church and parts of her theanthropic body. The first to fall away thus were the gnostics, then the Arians, then the Macedonians, then the Monophysites, then the Iconoclasts, then the Roman Catholics, then the Protestants, then the Uniates, and so on—all the other members of the legion of heretics and schismatics.”

I never cease to be thankful that the WLC (as an accurate summary/map of the teaching of the whole Scripture) classifies the entirety of a Christian's future under two major headings: grace (now) and glory (later).
Grace and Glory: nothing more, nothing less, forever.
Amazing.

Christianity set itself the goal of fulfilling man’s unattainable desires, but for that very reason ignored his attainable desires.
By promising man eternal life, it deprived him of temporal life.
By teaching him to trust in God’s help, it took away his trust in his own powers.
By giving him faith in a better life in heaven, it destroyed his faith in a better life on earth and his striving to attain such a life.
Christianity gave man what his imagination desires, but for that very reason failed to give him what he really and truly desires.
- Ludwig Feuerbach
Joshua 5:4
And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise: all the people that came forth out of Egypt, that were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt.

Jesus said to his disciples:
"You have heard that it was said to your ancestors,
Do not take a false oath,
but make good to the Lord all that you vow.
But I say to you, do not swear at all;
not by heaven, for it is God's throne;
nor by the earth, for it is his footstool;
nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
Do not swear by your head,
for you cannot make a single hair white or black.
Let your 'Yes' mean 'Yes,' and your 'No' mean 'No.'
Anything more is from the Evil One."✌️💜🌅

2yrs, 7 drafts & 125,000 words later, The Bushido of Bitcoin is finally available for pre-order.
Writing this book has been a journey, and the process literally transformed my understanding of the world.
This is NOT another history of money or economic justification for Bitcoin. Been there, done that.
This is a book about virtue, excellence, culture and behaviour, which asks the harder questions:
What becomes of those who rise to the top, in the new socio-economic paradigm?
Will they become:
--> A new kind of parasite?
--> Another bunch of degenerate?
Or
--> Men & women of virtue.
It’s not enough to just say “Bitcoin Fixes This.”
We must do something about it.
____________________
The age of fiat will not last. A new era will take its place. The question is, who will lay claim to it?
IMO: those who understand, that a new age, demands a new way of being. A new paradigm requires a new code, (a Bushido), that’s more vital, powerful and ascendant.
The Bushido of Bitcoin is that playbook.
____________________
This is my attempt to synthesise the best of what I’ve found in both the dissident grass-roots right and philosophy-centric bitcoin domain.
Some of you may be familiar with each other, but many of you will not. I hope this opens some doors and helps form a powerful alliance against the goblins and trolls running the world today.

John Carter (@martianwyrdlord on X) - the best editor and intellectual sparring partner I could’ve asked for. Also one of the best writers you'll come across. The book is not only twice as long but 10x better since you got involved and pushed me. Thankyou.
Ross Stevens - Thankyou for your support, for agreeing to write the foreword and most importantly, for being a modern day Cosimo de Medici. You are a true Renaissance man.
@saifedean @parkeralewis & @allenf32
- your work and integrity continue to inspire. You are of the rare few Austrians & Bitcoiners on earth today with the courage and fortitude to blaze a new trail & your work on Bitcoin is the only work I reference and point people to if they want the economic argument for Bitcoin.
There are of course many others.
Finally - a shout out to @heliand_22. Working with you on this trailer was a blast. You are a true magician. Reach out to this man if you want the best in video work.
And shoutout to DOS BRAINS for the music. Incredibly powerful, and I hope this trailer has done you justice.

Image Credit & Copyright: solar cycle 25
This colorized and sharpened image of the Sun is composed of frames recording emission from hydrogen atoms in the solar chromosphere on May 15. Approaching the maximum of solar cycle 25, a multitude of active regions and twisting, snake-like solar filaments are seen to sprawl across the surface of the active Sun. Suspend in the active regions' strong magnetic fields, the filaments of plasma lofted above the Sun's edge appear as bright solar prominences. The large prominences seen near 4 o'clock, and just before 9 o'clock around the solar limb are post flare loops from two powerful X-class solar flares that both occurred on that day. In fact, the 4 o'clock prominence is associated with the monster active region AR 3664 just rotating off the Sun's edge.

I found myself getting really angry today because my wife was having a stress "tantrum" that was rubbing off on me and the kids. Not to be demeaning by calling it a tantrum, I have bad days much more frequently and owe her grace at this point, but regardless, I felt that it was unfair to everyone that found themselves in her path.
Today was particularly enlightening as I noticed that many of the things she was saying and how she said them were things I remember my mother saying to me, and I resented her for them. Then the Lord brought to my attention how I had often done and said the same things to my kids. Humbled, it helped me understand and forgive not only my wife in her stress of the day, but also my mom from years back, things I had totally forgotten about and didnt realize I was "holding onto".
Anyways, happy weekend and GN

"Yo aconsejaría lo que mi padre me dijo: que leyera mucho, ante todo. Sobre todo, que viera en la lectura, no una obligación, sino un goce. Creo que la frase "lectura obligatoria" es un contrasentido. La lectura no debe ser obligatoria, es como hablar de placer obligatorio, ¿por qué? el placer no es obligatorio, el placer es algo que buscamos. Felicidad obligatoria… la felicidad la buscamos también. Pues bien, yo he sido profesor de literatura inglesa durante veinte años en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la Universidad de Buenos Aires, y siempre les aconsejé a mis estudiantes: “Si un libro les aburre, déjenlo, no lo lean porque es famoso, no lean un libro porque es moderno, no lo lean porque es antiguo. Si un libro es tedioso para ustedes, déjenlo, aunque ese libro sea El paraíso perdido (para mí no es tedioso) o El Quijote (que para mí tampoco es tedioso), pero si un libro es tedioso para ustedes no lo lean, ese libro no ha sido escrito para ustedes. La lectura debe ser una de las formas de la felicidad. De modo que yo aconsejaría a esos posibles lectores de mi testamento (que no pienso escribir), yo les aconsejaría que leyeran mucho, que no se dejaran asustar por la reputación de los autores, que leyeran buscando la felicidad personal, un goce personal, es el único modo de leer, sino caemos en la tristeza de las bibliografías de las citas, de fulano, luego un paréntesis, luego dos flechas separadas por un guion, y luego, por ejemplo, una lista de libros que han escrito… de críticos que han escrito sobre ese autor, y todo eso es una desdicha. Yo nunca les di bibliografía a mis alumnos. Les dije: “No... no lean nada de lo que se ha escrito de fulano de tal. Shakespeare no leyó una línea escrita sobre él, y escribió la obra de Shakespeare. Ustedes no se preocupen de lo que se ha dicho sobre Shakespeare. Lean ustedes a Shakespeare. Si Shakespeare les interesa, muy bien. Si Shakespeare les resulta tedioso, déjenlo. Shakespeare no ha escrito aún para ustedes. Llegará un día en que Shakespeare será digno de ustedes y ustedes serán dignos de Shakespeare. Pero mientras tanto no hay que apresurar las cosas. Yo aconsejaría, ante todo, la lectura y la lectura hedónica, la lectura del placer, no la triste lectura universitaria, hecha de referencias, de citas, de fichas. Yo he tomado examen durante veinte años en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras y tengo un orgullo, uno de los pocos de mi vida: no hice jamás una pregunta. Yo les decía a mis estudiantes: "Háblenos, por ejemplo, del doctor Samuel Johnson, háblenos de la poesía anglosajona, háblenos de Shakespeare, háblenos de Oscar Wilde, háblenos de Shaw, y hablen, digan lo que piensen. Yo prometo no interrumpirlos, prometo no preguntarles una sola fecha, porque yo mismo no las sé —y se descubría mi ignorancia—, de modo que ustedes hablen, si es que el tema les interesa”. Y dieron excelentes exámenes así. En cambio, hay profesores muy torpes que hacen preguntas porque no saben tomar examen".

And how is it that we hear, each in our own language in which we were born? - Acts 2:8
"Was it that the speakers expressed what they had to say in the diverse discourse of every language, or, when there were hearers of diverse nations, each of them would perceive what they heard in terms of his own language and would grasp the meaning of that one and the same discourse which had been uttered by the apostle?" - Gregory the Theologian
I've often thought the latter. Coming out of the Charismatic movement, we got a lot of flack from the cessationists, but I'm glad St. Gregory noticed this fine point and possibility.

The State's Most Cherished Power Is its Money Monopoly
https://mises.org/mises-wire/states-most-cherished-power-its-money-monopoly
By George Ford Smith
> When it comes to calling out government economic intervention, it is easy to forget that the fundamental reason for the state’s stranglehold on the economy is the government’s monopoly on creating and maintaining money. It is time to end the monopoly.
Rothbard:
> For government to use counterfeiting to add to its revenue, many lengthy steps must be travelled down the road away from the free market. Government could not simply invade a functioning free market and print its own paper tickets. Done so abruptly, few people would accept the government’s money. . ..
> Until a few centuries ago, there were no banks, and therefore the government could not use the banking engine for massive inflation as it can today. What could it do when only gold and silver circulated?
> The first step, taken firmly by every sizable government, was to seize an absolute monopoly of the minting business. That was the indispensable means of getting control of the coinage supply. . ..
> Having acquired the mintage monopoly, governments fostered the use of the name of the monetary unit, doing their best to separate the name from its true base in the underlying weight of the coin. This, too, was a highly important step, for it liberated each government from the necessity of abiding by the common money of the world market. Instead of using grains or grams of gold or silver, each State fostered its own national name in the supposed interests of monetary patriotism: dollars, marks, francs, and the like [emphasis mine]. The shift made possible the preeminent means of governmental counterfeiting of coin: debasement. . ..
> Sometimes, the government committed simple fraud, secretly diluting gold with a base alloy, making shortweight coins. More characteristically, the mint melted and recoined all the coins of the realm, giving the subjects back the same number of “pounds” or “marks,” but of a lighter weight. The leftover ounces of gold or silver were pocketed by the King and used to pay his expenses. . ..
And, also:
> Once such a label replaces the recognized world units of weight, it becomes much easier for governments to manipulate the money unit and give it an apparent life of its own. . ..
> With the name of the country’s currency now prominent in accounting instead of its actual weight, contracts began to pledge payment in certain amounts of “money.” Legal tender laws dictated what that “money” could be [e.g., dollars, francs].

How in earth can anyone be kicked out of their religion?
God has no religion.
This is something I also wrestle with although I have improved this past year. My first check is am I prioritizing things correctly? Am I spending time with the Lord either in prayer, study of scripture, spiritual reading, rosary, daily mass, etc. whatever your devotion. If yes, then what about time with my spouse/significant other. If yes, then what about my children (doesn’t apply for me yet). If yes, then what about my broader family? If yes, then what about my friends?
Note, I imagine work fits in there not so much as something that you consciously say yes to but more so something you do out of necessity and routine.
not sure your belief system and not trying to be pushy. Been a rough week for me, and after reading your post just wanted to share this. I wish you the best if you're going through some things right now friend.
But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isiah 40:31
I grew up going to a small Pentecostal church in the south. I still hold that close to my heart as I have a lot of great memories there. There was one pastor who would sing this verse, and I can't tell you how many times through my life I have drawn upon that. He was a great man and had an amazing wife. They would come over to my grandparents for buttermilk fried chicken, fried okra, cornbread and sweet tea after church sometimes and I would talk to him about his time in the Marines during Vietnam. Come to find out through others he was a pretty solid warrior (the war was worthless, and he knew that).
Anyways, I think about this verse often when things are rough throughout my life and it has helped me. I know some of you are believers and I know some of you aren't. That's okay, just know God loves you. If you're having a rough day I hope this can help you the way it brings me peace.

Cryptography is magic you can study and learn.
It's specific relationships between numbers and functions.
It's not the numbers or functions themselves but rather the properties of the relationship that can only be formed when using these numbers in a specific function.
Anarchy. Rules without rulers.
There is no ruler except God, whom set forth these numbers and relationships for us.
But even if you ignore the ruler and only adhere to the rules, you can benefit from these anarchistic relationships.
There are only rules. They are inflexible. But adherance will unlock more potential than deviance.

And the first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth; and it became a noisome and grievous sore upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and that worshipped his image.

I think you're on the track, yes, except it's worse than that...

I have a theory as to why leftists began identifying as "they/them nonbinary." Could it have anything to do with worshiping the state and identifying with it as your parent and later attempting to emulate it by "becoming" a wretched manmade beast? The state has no gender, and it is not an individual, it is a corporation of many individuals in a hierarchy. Therefore a "they/them" sees themselves as a corporation, or a fictional entity, or a beast, rather than a single being made in the image of God.
Agora vou expandir o argumento.
Você não aceita a definição de Seita dentro da Ortodoxia Protestante. Por que?
Por exemplo a Confissão Belga em seu artigo 27 diz:
"Cremos e confessamos uma só igreja católica ou universal. Ela é uma santa congregação e assembléia dos verdadeiros crentes em Cristo, que esperam toda a sua salvação de Jesus Cristo, lavados pelo sangue dEle, santificados e selados pelo Espírito Santo. Esta igreja existe desde o princípio do mundo e existirá até o fim."
Ou seja, a CB deixa claro que a Igreja verdadeira é a Igreja Universal (ou Invisível). Agora o que significa "O Remanescente" na Declaração de Fé da IASD? Você não explica.
O Remanescente e sua Missão:
"A igreja universal se compõe de todos os que verdadeiramente creem em Cristo; mas, nos últimos dias, um tempo de ampla apostasia, um remanescente tem sido chamado para guardar os mandamentos de Deus e a fé de Jesus."
Isso significa o que? Que a Igreja verdadeira no futuro irá guardar o Sábado? Você nunca explica.
Outra objeção que Adventistas não respondem é sobre Ellen White e o Sola Scriptura. Não não explicam o que significa "Sola Scriptura" para um Adventista e não apresentam o conceito Protestante de Sola Scriptura.
Por exemplo, a CFW Artigo. Cap. VI diz:
"Todo o conselho de Deus concernente a todas as coisas necessárias para a glória dele e para a salvação, fé e vida do homem, ou é expressamente declarado na Escritura ou pode ser lógica e claramente deduzido dela."
Alguém que não é Adventista consegue ver claramente ou deduzir logicamente das Escrituras que "O Dom de Profecia é uma característica da igreja remanescente e que foi manifestado no ministério de Ellen G. White" como afirma a declaração de Fé deles?
Responda, defenda sua tradição.
Ainda sobre Ellen White, diz a declaração de Fé deles:
"Seus escritos falam com autoridade profética e proveem consolo, orientação, instrução e correção para a igreja."
Quer dizer que os Escritos de Ellen White servem de consolo, orientação, instrução e correção para a Igreja praticamente da mesma forma que Paulo descreve A Escritura em 2 Tm 3:16? Você pode explicar se é isso mesmo?
"Eles também tornam claro que a Bíblia é a norma pela qual deve ser provado todo ensino e experiência."
Ok então, o adventista sabe que a Bíblia é o Padrão porque os escritos de Ellen White tornam claro?????? Você não definiu Sola Scriptura então não tem como saber o grau de autoridade dos escritos de Ellen White comparado à Autoridade das Escrituras.

Vou te dar mais uma chance. Se você não responder, encerro por aqui. Estou sem tempo para perder com sofistas.
Qual o problema de chamar um unitário de irmão? Essa é uma pergunta séria?
Agora entendi o motivo de você suavizar o termo Seita. Se você chama de irmão quem nega a divindade de Cristo você está mais longe da Ortodoxia do que eu pensei.
E pior, está indo contra a Escritura já que o Senhor Jesus afirmou que os judeus que não acreditassem que ele era Deus morreriam e seriam condenados pelos seus pecados (João 8:24).
Sobre a questão de quem é de fato eleito, eu não sondo o seu coração, nem o de ninguém então eu não sei quem é de fato regenerado. Só Deus sabe. É por isso que devemos pregar o Evangelho a todos.
Evangelho esse que diz que Deus enviou seu proprio filho para salvar o seu povo dos seus pecados (Mateus 1:21).
A crença na Trindade Divina e a da Divindade de Cristo já aparece no Credo Apostolico, logo é uma crença Ortodoxa. Então eu não considero cristão um unitário ou qualquer um que negue a Divindade do Senhor Jesus (Testemunhas de Jeová fazem, por serem Arianos).
Mas por qual motivo você pregaria o Evangelho a um Deísta, já que você já o considera um irmão? É por qual motivo você pregaria o Evangelho a um Deísta? E por necessidade lógica, a um Católico, Espírita, ou Muçulmano?
Se pra você todos são filhos de Deus mesmo que não saibam o que isso significa, eu entendo que você não tem muita noção de Teologia Bíblica.
Você claramente defendem a heresia do Universalismo, ainda por cima, tentou justificar essa heresia com um texto de Gálatas e depois negou que estava afirmando o Universalismo. Você também não deve ter muita noção do que seria uma contradição e como funcionam as leis da Lógica.
Na verdade eu tenho dificuldade de entender o que de fato você defende. Você não é claro em nada. Parece não ter convicção de nada.
Leia 1 João e perceba que o Apóstolo João repete várias vezes que não existe neutralidade, ou você é filho de Deus ou é filho do Diabo (1 João 3).
Uma coisa você é muito bom: Esconder o proselitismo adventista em relação às suas crenças sectarias.
Como afirmei antes, Adventistas falham em não separar Igreja Universal (ou invisível) de Igreja Local ou Visível (ou denominação).
Enquanto você não responder a esta objeção eu vou continuar chamando a IASD de Seita.
Você se rejeita a argumentar contra, eu não sei motivo. Mas me chamar de sectario ou exclusivista por ser Reformado não é um argumento.
Você está fugindo da questão desde o começo.
Por isso, a única coisa que eu posso afirmar com certeza é que você é de fato um Adventista do Sétimo Dia.

Jesus said to his disciples:
"You have heard that it was said, You shall not commit adultery.
But I say to you,
everyone who looks at a woman with lust
has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
If your right eye causes you to sin,
tear it out and throw it away.
It is better for you to lose one of your members
than to have your whole body thrown into Gehenna.
And if your right hand causes you to sin,
cut it off and throw it away.
It is better for you to lose one of your members
than to have your whole body go into Gehenna.
"It was also said,
Whoever divorces his wife must give her a bill of divorce.
But I say to you,
whoever divorces his wife (unless the marriage is unlawful)
causes her to commit adultery,
and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery."✌️💜🌅

I know that seems like a weird thing to be concerned about, but I already know of a few counting out euro-coins to buy groceries, so we've set up a cake café in the parish hall, once per week, so that they can get out of the house and socialize for free. They refuse to go on welfare. They'd rather literally starve.
And soon, there will be no welfare. There will just be us church ladies from the cake café.
I don't actually have any plans to spend it, I mostly see it as an emergency cash fund for my social net.
Like, I'm very active in my church and there are so many old people and young moms who would basically be up the creek without a paddle, if the euro crashed or the government dried up.
And I just wonder who would pay for the soup kitchens and heating bills? It's going to be people like me, right? Gold bugs and corn stackers will be the only ones with any money....

Doesn't have to be either/or. Money can have other advantages while ultimately existing to solve the problem of trust, which is fundamentally a moral problem.
And I would argue that while money is more efficient than barter, by far, it is not more efficient than credit. Yet, credit reintroduces the need for trust of people who are ultimately not worthy of it. Even when we try to organize the way credit is used in order to make the issuers of credit more trustworthy, we find that the temptation to abuse the privilege is too strong, and they sooner or later, usually sooner, violate that trust.
Sound money also has the added benefit of putting a natural limitation on the amount of evil a government can afford to perpetrate. When you have a money printer, you can extract far more value from your citizens without their consent in order to fund endless wars and line your own pockets. Not so when there is no mechanism to arbitrarily inflate the money supply.
It’s a very weird world where the Republican presidential candidate has been convicted for felonies regarding his payments to sex workers and the Democratic candidate’s son has been convicted of a gun control law triggering a major 2nd amendments gun rights case. I never thought we’d see a time when Republicans would be fine with affairs and paying prostitutes while the Democrats were fighting for gun rights. So weird.

Freedom Friday: The online public square
https://m.primal.net/IYnQ.mov
The internet promised to bring people and ideas together from all over the world in an open digital environment. However, the applications we use to access the web, such as search, marketplaces, streaming services, news, and social media, have been built on platforms that are owned and controlled by centralised entities. As the platforms have grown and gained importance in day to day life, so does their power and influence. Like the nobility of old, these unelected rulers have an enormous influence over what we can see and do online.
The root of the problem with the conventional internet is all the trust that’s required to make it work. Platforms and servers must be trusted not to change anything you send, not to delete, to convey what you share to those who want to see it, and to show you what you want to see, but the history of the internet is full of breaches of this trust.
Algorithms filter everything and show content that is profitable for the platform, keeping you addicted to what triggers your attention. The platforms are prone to censorship, as an operating company they can’t afford to display content objectional to any government or group capable of wielding influence. Everything is a rental, you don’t own your data, your digital identity is a rental. Data silos force you to stay, using the inconvenience of moving to force you to pay.
Introducing the verifiable web.
By using private/public key cryptography you can create an identity permissionlessly to verify everything you send by signing it with your private key. This signature can be verified by anyone with your public key. Thus removing the need for information to be conveyed by a trusted party. The job of relaying information and collecting and displaying content can be done by any server or client application. Your data is not the property of a company, its like a real world reputation, it goes with you wherever you go.
Having an open identity allows the development of a social graph, which builds a web of trust. What problem is the social graph solving? The answer is many, in many different ways and forms. It can be used as a defense mechanism against impersonation, as a way to prevent DoS attacks, to facilitate social discovery and connections, and to calculate more accurate ratings and reviews.
When you have an open, public social graph and the ability to filter spam, the incentives change to the point where the advertising industry gets fixed.
Yes, advertising will still be a thing, but you won't be forced to watch ads because you can't be captured. Companies that optimize for attention will be disrupted by those that optimize for value.
The spirit of building the world you want to see is what inspired us to create Mutiny Brewing. So come and join us.
If you have an Android we recommend downloading the app Amethyst and if you have apple we recommend the app Damus, both aps are social media clients, we hope to explore other stuff apps in future installments.

I was thinking about this quote for a while. It reminded me of something Jesus said:
"Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and behold, the log is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye." -Matthew 7:3-5
I'm sure semantics are everything in this, and that Jung was conscious of his psychological work primarily, but it is interesting to note that Jesus seems to indicate not that we don't truly recognize our darkness, but the method to help others is to recognize it, deal with it effectively, and THEN minister accordingly.
Anyways, thanks for this quote, it was a good bible lesson for me.
Matthew 20:25-28
But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles domineer over them, and those in high position exercise authority over them.
“It is not this way among you, but whoever wants to become prominent among you shall be your servant,
and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your slave;
just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”

What is @npub15xd…t3l3 ?
It's hard to say.
It's a new kind of social app, that's part NomadList, part Meetup, part Instagram, Google Places and Trip Advisor.
Some might say "this is not a good thing" bc people don't know how to categorise it, which is a fair criticism, but I'd argue, there was also no way to really describe Facebook or Instagram when they first came onto the scene.
Building something NEW requires that you discover what you are along the way. Especially if you're trying to fundamentally transform an industry. If you just want to build another widget or app - sure - it helps to solve a very narrow problem, and position it in a way that's very easy to relate back to something that exists.
But...if your aim is to do something both new, and transformative, you have to push boundaries and build things in a way that makes more intuitive sense, than logical sense.
That being said, it's got to be done in stages, with each stage delivering some form of very clear & precise value.
This week, we'll roll out the first version of Satlantis at @npub167n…zu3r which is basically a "City Home Page" derived from social content on Nostr.
Anyone can follow a city, post content about anything in a city, search for & join events, find people in that city, connect with them directly, learn about a city (scores, stats, gallery) and see a dynamic feed with content people are posting on OTHER Nostr apps (if they hashtag the city).
In the coming weeks and months, we'll be rolling out rich user profiles, a feature rich merchant map with some really cool review & content features, and much more.
Stay tuned.

Segway's robot mower spared me from my least favorite chore
https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims?image_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fs.yimg.com%2Fos%2Fcreatr-uploaded-images%2F2024-06%2F38036960-2968-11ef-b5ef-e71db9dbbe4a&resize=1400%2C933&client=19f2b5e49a271b2bde77&signature=e04e3dfe6f2eeb388e0fcde55d009eebe2c843a1
I’m sure some of you have looked at robo mowers as Roombas for your yard but, sadly, many of them require you to install a boundary wire around the perimeter of your lawn. And any product that requires you to dig a trench is the opposite of what “low effort” means to me. That’s why I was interested in trying Segway’s Navimow i105, its £945 (around $1,200) GPS-equipped mower which eliminates that busywork. And keeping your lawn neat and tidy is a job that’s all busywork.
Ask a gardener and they’ll tell you the secret to a great lawn is to seed a piece of flat land and then mow it into submission. Regular, militant mowing kills off all the other flora, ensuring only grass can grow until everything looks well-manicured. But that relentless mowing requires a lot of time, a luxury I’ve never had. It’s the sort of job a robot mower was born to do, given it can scuttle around and trim grass without you there.
Segway’s i Series is the company’s latest, more affordable offering compared to its pricier S Series. The new units have a smaller battery and range, with the i105 able to handle areas up to 500 square meters. Unlike some GPS mowers, the i105 is equipped with a forward facing HD camera with a 180-degree field of vision. So while it relies on satellites for positioning, it’ll have enough sense to stop before it clatters into an obstacle. It’s not packing sophisticated computer vision smarts, but it’ll play safe lest it charge into a pet, inattentive family member or prized flower.
I wanted to test the Navimow because I have whatever you’d call the opposite of the platonic ideal of a Good Garden(™). My house sits at the base of a hill, with the garden built into tiers along its height, and the lawn 1.5 meters above ground level. There’s a sheer drop down its nearest edge and a foot-long drop along the side where the pathway has been cut into the ground. It’s a high-stakes test to see how accurate the unit’s positioning is, given what would happen if things went wrong. Plus, I’m not green-fingered and my lawn is usually overrun with an orgy of Borage that grows faster than I can cut it down.
Setup requires you to plant the Navimow i105’s docking station and connect it to a mains power and standalone GPS antenna. Once the unit is paired with the app, you’ll use your phone as a remote control to drive it around the perimeter of your lawn. You’ll also quickly learn that what you thought was a flat lawn has plenty of hidden bumps and dips. Which meant my first few mapping runs left with me a very wonky edge that I had to keep tweaking.

You’ll also need to give your lawn a good mowing before you run the Navimow, because it’s obviously not built to clear masses of unkempt grass. Spare a thought for me, as I was testing this during a typical British April, where we get torrential rain and bright sunshine in equal measure. And that will give your lawn — and the weeds lurking therein — time and opportunity to spring back. The unit’s obstacle avoidance made it skirt even just a sprightly patch of grass and weeds, leaving me with a patchy cut that meant I had to get the lawnmower out again.
Setup took about half an hour, which didn’t feel too onerous given there’s a fair chunk of stuff to do. Staking the GPS antenna into the ground, running the cables and locking down the charging station are all easy enough. I’m fortunate enough to have no tall buildings or obstacles blocking my GPS signals, either. Once it was all working, all I had to do after the initial run-around was let it work its magic without supervision. And, on flat ground in fair weather, Navimow does all you could ask it to do.
Bear in mind that the Navimow will have the same limitations as any other robotic domestic aid (like a robovac). The cutting blades sit underneath the center of its body so it can’t do edges unless you opt to have the machine ride beyond its boundary. If you can’t do that, then you’ll need to get a weed wacker to trim the unreachable edges of your turf. But I’ll admit, I’m very much an edge case compared to most folks.
I was deeply concerned about leaving the Navimow out in the weather, but the company said its IP66 rating for water- and dust-resistance meant I shouldn’t worry. The company will sell you a canopy that can sit on top of the charging station to protect it from the elements. You’ll have to bring the unit indoors from the end of fall to the start of spring each year, but that’s hardly a shock.
That’s a relatively minor gripe, however, and I’ve enjoyed the ability to set this thing to run out on a regular basis. Once the inclement weather and weed growth subsided, the unit showed its worth eliminating around 90 percent of the busywork I would otherwise have to do. The fact I have a neat lawn that only needs a quick trim around the edges has been a delight. And I’ve spent more time in the garden now than I would otherwise given that it’s nice by default, rather than needing a mow.
Fundamentally, if you have a patch of ground you’d like to see become a lawn and don’t have time to do it yourself, take a look at this. It may not be the set-and-forget solution you could hope for, but it’ll reduce the amount of effort to almost nothing. And, while it costs a grand, if it lasts more than a couple of years, it’ll work out cheaper than hiring a gardener to do the same job.

A lot of people seem to see voting for trump as „the lesser of two evils“, wondering what else they can do to protect their bitcoin from regulatory overreach.
But the US isnt „the greatest country in the world“ because of its presidents - if anything, it is *in spite* of them.
The US government consists of more than the presidency. It has a fairly well working judiciary in place, which exists to help the people hold the government accountable and ensure that no laws will be passed infringing on your rights (doesnt always work but often does).
From a legal perspective, the US is a great place for bitcoin due to its laws around free speech and enterprise, which enshrines the use and ownership of bitcoin not just as property, but as a tool for communication.
The problem ergo isnt the politicians. The problem is your own complete political apathy when it comes to anything other than elections.
If you want to protect your bitcoin, stop spending millions of dollars and thousands of hours supporting political candidates who will say anything to get your votes only to drop you like a hot potato once elected. Instead, use that time and money to boycott and organize - its what the system was designed for.
There are enough grounds to sue the US government, private citizens, companies and institutions if the right to own, use or interact with bitcoin was to be infringed, and its how the majority of civil liberties were established.
Ending racial segregation in schools didnt happen by presidential decree - it happend through Brown vs. Board of Education. The right to an attorney: Gideon v Wrainwright. Interracial marriage: Loving v Virginia. Burning of the US flag as speech: Texas v Johnson. Right to abortion (though now overturned): Roe v Wade. Same sex marriage: Obergefell v Hodges. Porn on the internet: ACLU v Reno.
You have rights, and you need to stop thinking that you are powerless without some babbling politician to enforce them. Spend the time and money on grassroots organizing, which is much more in the spirit of bitcoin anway. Politicians hate this trick.

Nope. It's not that easy. Just like Bitcoiners always argue about network effects, Monero has the lions share in network effects for privacy coins.
It would have to retain the same properties (self custody, unstoppable, permissionless, etc) and be much much better to draw users over. Not equal or just a little bit better. But if that happened then I would end up using it. I don't care as long as it retains the same spirit.
#AI developers were involved in hiding the bans since the very beginning. Where midjourney was used persistently to produce fake videos and images of banned presidents and ministers lying about being able to travel since late 2020, it would have been easier to declare holding videoconferences. I have heard that some of them are considering themselves Gods just because they learned a language. The risks of AI were more serious than false images or videos and it was planned to be used in wars so that governments and Royal families escape the consecutive auto-revenge and auto-punishment requests or bans.
No wonder that their apps are now deleted because I am part of God’s punishment. Even with my elementary knowledge that is more of a joke, they are now defeated.
Bye bye #AI

Jesus said to his disciples:
"I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses that
of the scribes and Pharisees,
you will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven.
"You have heard that it was said to your ancestors,
You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.
But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother
will be liable to judgment,
and whoever says to his brother, Raqa,
will be answerable to the Sanhedrin,
and whoever says, 'You fool,' will be liable to fiery Gehenna.
Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar,
and there recall that your brother
has anything against you,
leave your gift there at the altar,
go first and be reconciled with your brother,
and then come and offer your gift.
Settle with your opponent quickly while on the way to court with him.
Otherwise your opponent will hand you over to the judge,
and the judge will hand you over to the guard,
and you will be thrown into prison.
Amen, I say to you,
you will not be released until you have paid the last penny."✌️💜🌅
1 Samuel 19:11
And Saul sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to-night, to-morrow thou wilt be slain.

Yes and no. It's clear now that we're under attack by elements of our own government and military.
What looks like nothing may turn into more. So people have got to be prepared and skeptical.
When I caught covid-19 in 2019 I thought it was just a common cold at first.
We now know that the original Wuhan version was diabolically programmed in a laboratory as a biological weapon with a sneak attack during the antibody phase.
It nearly killed me because I didn't recognize it was a man-made bio weapon until the second week when the SARS was programmed to kick in.
After the antibody phase you get a sudden feeling of well-being. Just before the SARS attack. I jumped on it with everything I had with nothing but over the counter meds.
I fully expected to die a couple of nights in my sleep. I could literally feel it trying to kill me. But I pulled through. So be prepared. We all should know about the enemy now.

@npub1587…kv0n listened to this episode and curious about your thoughts on currency debasement being part of the list.
The Roman empire is one of the best known examples of currency the basement leading up to the end of the empire. I am curious on your thoughts on how relevant this has been to other empires ending.

Holy fucking shit the video editor on reels is painfully unusable. It legit makes me not want to ever post on the app. It feels completely broken from start to finish.
I covered that song on a guitar at an open mic just a few months after the album came out, while the music overlords were still pushing Closer (I want to fuck you like an animal) as the big hit from the album and Hurt was getting 0 airtime.

UNBELIEVABLE: Experts Discover Oldest Written Record of Jesus Christ’s Childhood, Revealing an Amazing Miracle Not in the Bible
Revealed as the earliest surviving copy of the “Infancy Gospel of Thomas,” a document detailing Jesus Christ’s childhood.
In the Gospel of Thomas story, a five-year-old Jesus is playing in a stream while molding 12 sparrows out of soft clay in the riverbed mud. But when his father, Joseph, sees what he is doing, he scolds Jesus and demands to know why he is molding clay on the Sabbath.
Jesus responds by telling the clay figures to take flight as living birds, and they OBEY his command.

Leviticus 13:12
And if the leprosy break out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy cover all the skin of `him that hath' the plague from his head even to his feet, as far as appeareth to the priest;
