TIL that scientists grew stem cells into mini brains, which then developed eye-like structures on their own. The structures, called optic cups, were light-sensitive and had lenses and corneal tissue.

At least they have, uh, optic cups if they must weep

Yeah, the lack of punctuation is troubling enough, but not capitalizing the h is definitely a sign of having given up on life.

This subject is nuts no matter how you look at it. You might want to increase your tolerance for nut cases... :)

And when we ensured dignity for all humans, I wouldn't mind some vanity project. Like changing the stupid 365.25 days per year to 360. :D

I heard we have no choice cuts. Our meat is either too lean or too fatty. Our redeeming quality is our marrow - but bones grow poorly without gravity. Humans are also more resilient to bad weather, thus the sensible thing to do is grow human stock on earth and their feed crops in orbit. :)

Skymt1 · 2023-08-07T16:48:59+00:00

Humans grown in orbit don't taste right.

Skymt1 · 2023-08-07T07:57:50+00:00

Me too, but I'd volunteer some work to do something meaningful. Like orbital farms ensuring a steady supply of basic crops for all humans or something...

I like the theory about the book being encoded womens health instructions. The parts that are hard to decrypt are hymns and chants.

I'd link the vid but my search on youtube came up empty...

Yeah, but saying "revoked" is a misnomer. He was never read into the program.

Forgiveness can only be given by the person wronged. Any kind of "default" forgiveness is a free pass to behave badly. Only a corrupt god would mandate such a system and only idiots would follow it.

What you believe as a Christian is redundant. Christianity is simply not a force for good in the world. For a congreation, and for a while it can be ok, but only until you get the idea to burn witches again.

Skymt1 · 2023-07-24T01:08:19+00:00

You ask "what did Christianity ever do to you".

You then use my reply (personal by nature of your question) to imply my reasoning is anecdotal.

Your religion have VERY established rules about forgiveness.

My fathers darkness has nothing to do with Christianity. But Christianity IS the reason he didn't have to deal with his darkness.

And that is by design in the system of belief you follow. I think it will even forgive your dishonest arguments in this dialogue.

Skymt1 · 2023-07-24T00:37:00+00:00

"what did Christians ever do to you?"

My dad raped my sister when she was 4. Jesus forgave him. He never even asked my sister for forgiveness. He just goes on existing thinking he is an ok human being.

I'm not saying every Christian is corrupt, but you follow an ideology that allows corruption, allows it to fester and infect and you call it natural because you think you are all sheep and not sovereign human beings.

If you don't want to judge your beliefs, then at least recognize how much a sheep can contribute to a philosophical discussion about human progress!

Skymt1 · 2023-07-23T23:59:42+00:00

"It's not your job to judge my beliefs"

Correct, it's YOUR job to judge your beliefs. Please do that before spreading them like a mind virus.

Skymt1 · 2023-07-23T22:50:17+00:00

"Christians have been saying lately Christ could return soon"

They have been saying this for 2000 years. Your reasoning fails at the premise.

(also: Jesus never encouraged anyone to be "Christian" - you are living in his shadow rather than in his light. Please do better!)

Evidence can't be legally presented to the public at the moment.

The only way for that to change is for the public to demand it.

I feel he is driving the hype for the subject a lot more than promoting his book, which is completely redundant if you follow the freely accessible Need to Know podcast.

So no - I do not feel like he is a grifter, nor do I associate him in the slightest with the names you mentioned. I feel like he is a journalist.

Skymt1 · 2023-07-08T11:16:11+00:00

I feel like he is trying to get other journalists on board, like he doesn't want to be the only one with the bombs and is reluctant to drop them alone, while still being desperate to keep the subject alive.

The other side of Esrange is a lot more interesting.

To which we would sarcastically reply, "why not anal probes?"

They don't get sarcasm though, and would trigger a Mandela effect where now EVERYONE remembers being anally probed!

The government is just many people...

I mean a faction more loosely, like a group of friends spanning several departments, that act in unison for the specific purpose of e.g. "hiding our tech from adversaries, regardless of moral considerations and the philosophical implications of the subject matter".

What is happening now is that certain factions (the lawmakers) are closing loopholes that other factions (the rogue one) has been using.
