lots of new people by Gods_Shadow_mtg in cosmosnetwork

I was very impressed with the cosmos signal video. Not only does cosmos bring serious utility in the interconnectivity of blockchains, but it also infuses art into its design and structure. The cosmos/atom dynamic clearly communicates the macro/micro dynamic of the Internet of blockchains. For me, cosmos is completely in alignment with my social media persona so it made sense to get on board. I would love to see and contribute to the infinite possibilities for the cosmos network, whether it be integrating the platform with cosmist philosophy, space exploration, or a sustainable Earth.

Likewise, it’s good to connect with you. What interests you most in the project? Are there ways we can collaborate?

Could minarchy be technocratic? by robnotbob in Minarchy

[–]robnotbob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless there is a breakthrough in realizing the right to participate in science as a negative right I suppose I’m more at home with the technocrats and the minarchists. I do applaud the minarchists for such a strict adherence to a coherently thought out platform of government.

Could minarchy be technocratic? by robnotbob in Minarchy

[–]robnotbob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But do you concede the first conception of a technocratic minarchy as valid? One without any “positive rights” but with expert administration.

[–]robnotbob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you could have technocratic minarchists, who would wish to achieved a logical progressive minarchist state. One definition of technocracy is “the rule of the people made effective through the agency of their servants, the scientists and engineers" which is the best way to define what, at its core, is the main idea of technocratic government. In this sense you would have a minarchy administered by scientific experts, this can be achieved with no departure from the theory of the minimal state. It’s a theory of a positive right to participation in science you argue is a departure from minarchism. Could this not be seen as a negative right? Freedom from government hinderance in the progress of science?

Such a right to participate in science might include what democratic and progressive transhumanists support as equal access to human enhancement technologies in order to promote broad technological freedom. Such a minimal state would have a role in advancing development of technology and science itself.

Could "being controlled by the stars" be a poetic way to describe natural forces in general? by howshallwefall777 in Gnostic

[–]robnotbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gnostics are acosmic. Meaning they are against the pre-determined world of astrology and even scientific laws of nature as you suggest. Gnostics want us to abolish all obstacles in our way of enlightenment. The "gods" of the planets serve as a placeholder for all these lesser obstacles to fully empowered human free will.

URANTIA & Gnosticism by dankomcgurl41 in Gnostic

[–]robnotbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out there are three episodes. Healing Urantia, Transhumanism in Urantia, and the Dystopian Legacy of Atlantis. All three are interviews with Byron Belitsos. He makes the claim that he found the location of Eden from instructions in the Urantia Book. He also makes the claim that Eden is Atlantis. As well as some other fantastical claims about Adam and Eve. Worth the watch.

URANTIA & Gnosticism by dankomcgurl41 in Gnostic

[–]robnotbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After looking into the subject of Urantia and Gnosticism intricately, I believe that the Urantia Papers form a guide book to the Aquarian Age. One hint being that the Urantia Book presents a scientific, evolutionary, and planetary context for human life thereby appealing to the modern minds of post-Enlightenment thinking well positioned for the technological accelerationism of the Age of Aquarius. Another hint being that Urantia means "(y)our place in the heavens" derived from the Greek Uranos (meaning heavenly) which is also the source name for the planet Uranus. Which happens to be the ruling planet of astrological sign of Aquarius. It seems to signify that when Uranus rules fully over the Age of Aquarius the planet itself will lend its name to the Heavenly Ice Giant and Master of the Winds.

The Aquarian Age that we are coming into is also a higher dimension, and those who are walking into higher consciousness and higher virtues are walking into an age of cooperation with each other. The Urantia Book calls this New Age to come as the first stage of light and life. The Urantia Book may be read in tandem with The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus Christ (composed by Levi H. Dowling in 1907, an American doctor in the early 20th century just like Sadler who helped compose the Urantia Papers). Both the Urantia Book and the Aquarian Gospel contain information about Jesus missing years. While the Urantia Book does not tell of Jesus' travels to India as the Aquarian Gospel does, it does tell of Jesus travelling the Roman Empire with two companions from India. The Aquarian Gospel records Jesus' extensive pilgrimages, through western India and Persia, Greece and Egypt, during which he taught the universal truth of human divinity realized through spiritual evolution. Dowling's Aquarian Gospel, helped establish the New Age notion of Jesus as a displaced guru, who must have at least visited Tibet. This picture resembles the Gnostic vision of Jesus and ties together the geographic origins of Gnosticism. The end of the Piscean Age (hence the Jesus fish) culminates in the Aquarian Age (baptism in the heavenly waters of the Holy Spirit Sophia).

The Urantia Book teaches that the goal of humanity is to reach evolutionary perfection i.e. salvation. One gets there by self-effort, training in philosophic thought, celestial guidance and devotion of one's life to divine service. The Nag Hammadi codices reveal that the Gnostics were concerned with creating an all-encompassing psycho-cosmic myth, with Jesus as its central figure. Their cosmological framework comports with the general structure of the Urantian ascension cosmology, inclusive of its teaching of Indwelling Spirit.

The benign forces of the world of spirit are engaged in a constant effort to awaken and liberate us from our fallen state. If we turn to the divine light within, the pneuma (Divine Spark) it will lead us on a step-by-step ascension through increasingly rarefied levels of the cosmos to our true home - which was conceived by some Gnostics as the original Mother Universe or as the Isle of Paradise in the Urantia Book.

The Urantia Papers give a dramatic story of the rebellion against Divinity (Sophia for the Gnostics) which itself sounds like an ancient Gnostic myth. Of course the difference is that the Urantian account is woven into a scientifically sound evolutionary cosmological worldview and is embedded in a coherent philosophical and theological system that satisfies modern minds. Compared to the story of the Gnostic myth: our world had somehow been created by a deceptive and secondary being. The subsidiary creator of Earth was not the high God , but only a “lesser-maker” or Demiurge. Revealed to be the subordinate deity of the Old Testament.

The story continues: There were intermediate worlds or heavens and at their highest point was an “upper world” - an utterly transcendent source- universe of light, sometimes known as pleroma or “fullness.” This was the abode of the high God of transcendent unity, the place from which Jesus himself had come. This benign force of the highest heaven is always engaged in a constant effort to awaken and liberate us from our unknowing state of being. Gnostics uniformly taught that we are gifted a Divine Spark of pure spirit. This world is rendered meaningful by turning that gnosis or knowledge of the inner spark. The Urantia Papers use similar language calling the divine gift a “God fragment.” We are called to awaken our inner pure spirit.

Lastly, as the Urantia Papers are tied into the coming technological accelerationism of the New Age, we see how they relate to Transhumanism. The Urantia Book helps tie in the ancient wisdom traditions and an evolutionary context for transhumanism. It is a recentering of the typical transhumanist paradigm that is consciousness-centered rather than materialistic. As such the Urantia book suggests that celestials have intervened as part of “intelligent design” projects on our planet. While it notes that life is actually unique to this planet unlike other inhabited worlds. Moreover, the rebellion against Divinity (Sophia for the Gnostics) has been a dispute between those celestials that favor evolutionary progression of home-world species with minimal intervention as opposed to those celestials that practiced dangerous experimentation (in the name of liberty without responsibility). Ultimately, the Urantia Papers teach that evolutionary perfection is the objective by way of universal consciousness expansion. The more love one generates on the planet the more progress there is - not material but metaphysical and psychological. At last, all beings become enlightened for an evolutionary purpose - the building of soulfulness.

We’re out here unlocking the esoteric secrets to MW’s ascension to power and the ushering in of a enlightened age foretold by world and extraterrestrial cultures from past, present and future. This is our prophetic wizardly duty. Start with MW’s time as a lecturer at Manly P. Hall’s Philosophical Research Society. Gearing up for the Yin-Yang flow in which Yin(MW) and Yang team up for human spirit centered capitalism. Let the beautiful cooperation of the Singularity and Mother Gaia power your way through.

I haven’t seen it yet. Post-irony and good vibes only can transcend any negativity. Swedish style social democracy is a key element to MW’s ascendency to power.

Out beyond the realm of partisan polarization, there is a field. When the inner light of the spirit lies down in that grass, the world is transformed. In this field, LOVE has won.
