Science it seems always attempts to nullify any result in any field of study it doesn't like -or would rather not think about-hopefully a bit in the future i can do some articles on an alternative theory to the Big Bang and the reaction from science to this idea -it is as if the "big bang" theory is LAW-best to you as always Alex and I hope you are going to have a beautiful week-I know it is already Monday where you are!!Devinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08467101354793913827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-328993352663790127.post-9221663018972877382009-09-19T19:00:38.941-07:002009-09-19T19:00:38.941-07:00Hi Devin
Thanks for these posts & thanks also ...Hi Devin<br />Thanks for these posts & thanks also for moving bloody Mary of the centre stage :)<br /><br />The fortean snippets were intriguing indeed - I've been to Bosworth Field but nothing showed up in my pics - maybe that's a good thing :)<br />A book I'm reading at the moment uses science to suggest/prove that our brains create all sorts of illusions that seem completely real to us - my mind remains questioning, but some points are very interesting.<br /><br />We still understand so little, altho' I'm of the present opinion that science is only studying a portion of this world & therefore their data will always be only a percentage of any truth - I have wondered if science actually came about BECAUSE the ethereal was denied, a kind of artificially inseminated outcome forced into existence by the closing the doors to other worlds.<br /><br />I hope you are very well & enjoying cooler weather, perhaps even some rain :)Alex Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10626969675592777365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-328993352663790127.post-29832341755406185352009-09-18T21:50:22.559-07:002009-09-18T21:50:22.559-07:00Autumnforest-thanks so much for your thoughtful co...Autumnforest-thanks so much for your thoughtful comments tonight!!

You have me thinking about so many things. On...Wow! You have me thinking about so many things. One person's reality becomes another person's fantasy. One might hear voices in his head and think he's hearing God, another might hear voices in his head and know that his brain is malfunctioning with schizoaffective disorder. What I love about human beings is that you can take 10 people experiencing the same event and hear 10 different experiences. I used to play a game with my son to teach him "mental hygiene." We'd encounter someone in a grumpy mood and I'd have him tell me 15 reasons why the man might be grumpy (rather than attributing to himself automatically). He realized that he can never know what motivates another person, there are too many possibilities including mental illness, life experiences, a bad day, hormones, et cetera. One thing that's hard about living in society is that we immediately "pasteurize" everyone. We're milked down into what is "normal" and what isn't. Some people have big personalities, lots of energy, bad moods, anxieties, but that's all variations of being human, as are religiosity, visions, and savants. The key is to let people be every flavorful variety that they come in. It's not how you see the world, it's what you do with how you see the world. A scientist could take his brillance and build a bomb or cure cancer. Even Ex-Pres Bush has a place in the world (to make us frustrated enough to elect a president with actual character and intelligence and to forever fear conservatives nincompoops). :-)Sharon Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13609356325356264202noreply@blogger.com
