OR, we are living in a shadow cast by a higher spatial dimensional reality.

"I defy anyone. It’s just the limit case for unlikelihood: that the universe would spring from nothing in a single instant for no reason… ”

Easy, it all depends on your definitions of, "reason", "nothing" and "spring". I mean, after all, now that "recession" doesn't mean recession, why should those other words be a problem?

That's one amazing reply considering what I had been working on off of FR. I only popped in to grab the name of today's Top Gun thread title.

As I mentioned on the post 40 to which you replied, it's "All in the timing."

The dark side never learns because it already knows everything already.

Has it been demonstrated that the Eigenvalues are off by “more” if it’s a strong field (strong curvature), and by a lesser amount on a weak field (weak curvature)? If experimental results aren’t consistent with this then there’s still something wrong.

Both David & Solomon were great Kings and a terrible fathers. The sword never left David’s house after his affair with Bathsheba. His get of that tryst—Solomon in all his glory—the man who addressed so many excellent pieces of advice to his son in proverbs—in turn produced a twit in Rehoboam.

Perhaps both David and Solomon were motivated to write because they instinctively knew that their lives were off the mark. in the way that you and I know our lives are off the mark. (though we may have different markers.) In David and Solomon their mark may have been that instinctive sense of generations where great grand dad is followed by grand dad who is followed by dad who is followed by son who is followed grandson who is followed by great grandson. A man will know when he is in a proper continuation of his line. And when his actions are out line with that continuation.

nah, that’s probably too grandiose—or certainly too grandiose for the thinking of a young man—most of whom don’t think with their heads all that much anyway.

most conservatives today have experienced over the last many decades a sheering force on the foundations of the USA. Maybe that sheering force is what moved David and Solomon to write.

Musk could be the modern Noah. A guy — here at free republic someone wrote that the hebrew word for ark that noah used —and the hebrew word for basket that carried Moses as a baby on the nile—are the same word. Both baby and man were for a time completely in God’s hands...to do as He willed.

“The dark side never learns because it already knows everything already.”

The deep question is how do you open up the civilization to the ways of God.

So light comes in.

imho beyond you and I—(because all change has to start at home)—it has to start in the universities.

There needs to be a paradigm shift.

someone wrote that the hebrew word for ark that noah used -- and the hebrew word for basket that carried Moses as a baby on the nile -- are the same word.

"teva"

Definitions 5 and 7 loop back to my previous musical post (#40) about the letters in the spaces.

Also, acronym in Hebrew is "roshei teivot", lit. the heads of words (the word for word, "teva")

We know that the other famous Ark is the Ark of the Covenant: Aron ha-Brit.

... a sheering force on the foundations of the USA. Maybe that sheering force is what moved David and Solomon to write.

The acronym for the United States is [ארה״ב], which stands for the name of the US: Artzot ha-Brit, lit. lands of the covenant.

This common pattern for forming an acronym would generate the same "roshei teivot" for "Aron ha-Brit.

Of course, it's not like anyone's going to use that acronym for the Ark of the Covenant, otherwise people might see it and think that the Ark of the Covenant is the United States.

The deep question is how do you open up the civilization to the ways of God.

US Government -- famous for its acronyms, and acronyms for acronyms. Who'd find anything in a US Government warehouse. It would be like finding a neil in a haystack.

You don't. It finds *you*.

An interesting point of debate in the Jewish spheres is whether the Messiah arrives and then the Temple is built, or if the Temple drops down, already built.

As you mentioned earlier...

Miracles by definition rarely happen.

They are God's way of telling you that your way of doing things needs to change.

An "Aha" light bulb moment is the sudden "miraculous" lightning speed arrival of an epiphany, not a material manifestation.

The miracle is the change required in order to see the light (revelation), because it's been sitting around all along.

"Say...what's a mountain goat doing way up here in a cloud bank?"

Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him...

Jordan Peterson does a good job in 17 minutes of explaining practical application of the Noah story.

about three weeks ago, the congress mandated that all the federal agencies bring to congress all the information they have since WWII on UFO’s.

this tucker carleson interview with stanford professor dr gary nolan—who is one of the foremost researchers in the world on UFO’s — was posted at freerepublic this morning. You’ll want to look at this in the evening —with company if you can arrange for that. Its an hour long.

Thanks much! The Dr. Nolan interview was especially excellent.

I haven't seen any UFOs but rather some plain reality on the ground that is even more unbelievable, if you can believe it.

Here's a graphic I post every now and then because it sums it all up:

Dr. Nolan spoke of this being the type of something so big that it would cause people to unify.

Genesis 49

1.And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days.
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.

We’ve only seen 100 or so sci fi movies on this theme in last 50 years.

I don’t know that “space” itself is expanding...

Of course it is, you know why?

Because it’s trying to get away from Chuck Norris.

Amazing what's been put out there through iconic movies, famous songs, world events and their celebrations and commemorations, popular quotes that become integrated into the common language, memes... it goes on.

Hello, Neil and Buzz. I'm talking to you by telephone from the Oval Room at the White House. And this certainly has to be the most historic telephone call ever made. I just can't tell you how proud we all are of what you've done. For every American, this has to be the proudest day of our lives. And for people all over the world, I am sure they too join with Americans in recognizing what an immense feat this is. Because of what you have done, the heavens have become a part of man's world. And as you talk to us from the Sea of Tranquility, it inspires us to redouble our efforts to bring peace and tranquility to Earth. For one priceless moment in the whole history of man, all the people on this Earth are truly one: one in their pride in what you have done, and one in our prayers that you will return safely to Earth.

Can you give a three sentence max explanation of what hermiticity is—to the ordinary rubber necking gawker.

Then maybe a sentence or two more on why hermiticity is important, how fast the field progresses and what are its implications for the future?

Think of space as a 3d field- not empty.

The field is made of many layers of spandex, one on top of the other.

2 bb’s in the spandex are in same layers ( z) and 10 inches apart on the xy plane.

Now think of something (or many things) that pull the spandex, not the bb - between the bb’s- Creating a mound.

Now the bb are closer or further apart depending on whether they travel on the same spandex layer (further), or through spandex layers (closer).

This is analogous to changes in field density of space.

Or maybe not…

Your analogy is like the sun being at the bottom of a gravity well.

Just as earth is at the bottom of a gravity well?

The mass of both push down the fabric of space—so that things around them are pulled into them.

Correct?

So hermiticity measures the slope of the the gravity well?

I would say hermiticity measures the slope of the 3d field. Sorta…

the steeper the slope—the bigger the mass at the bottom of the gravity well?
