My new five part science history series
I just completed my new five part series for the Strategic Culture Foundation. I think it’s one of the most important projects I’ve ever undertaken. Feel free to use.
Is human society destined for self-annihilation or were we made for something better?

The idea that anti-republican John Locke inspired the founding of the USA has been a strategic myth which has kept generations of Americans from understanding their own moral roots.

Just as Kepler attacked Aristotle, and just as Leibniz attacked both Locke, Aristotle, Descartes and Newton for the crime of denying the immortal soul to mankind, so too did Carey attack the system of Malthus and Ricardo on similar grounds.
Whether we review the growth of eugenics or even the growth of modern ecologism and transhumanism out of cybernetics, the seeds of Aristotle’s oligarchical cosmology can be felt viscerally.
In this final segment of his series, Matthew Ehret gives the last word to several leading scientists who took a stand in our modern age against the rise of the cult of darkness.

Interesting articles Matthew.
My belief:
What I type below requires knowledge of Astrology and Past lives, Karma, procession of the equinoxes and humanities conditions pertaining to that cycle. It too is cyclical from ‘best to worst’.
I feel God is not all knowing as claimed, I believe there are so many paths possible that all cannot be known. If you think about it, should God be all-knowing, there is little point to humanity existing at all since all possible endings are known.
There is a need of God’s ‘sparks’ (or you can call them the soul), to accumulate experiences and return with that experience to set the intricacies and path of future generations (the unknowable). This ties in with past annihilation of civilizations that went completely bad for whatever reason, though it is a cyclical event that apparently exists for a reason too.
A newborn is not a blank slate, but a new vessel with a template, geared toward a particular goal, with a particular set of values and traits, both usefull and disadvantageous to the task in hand. free will is of course a given, and the outcome, should it come to fruition will create an individual that portrays the finest example of that person that can possibly exist. Unfortunately the free will aspect means any and all avenues are open and the life may be ‘wasted’.
Why does God allow suffering? Are some people intrinsically bad? There is no doubt that suffering is self initiated, even though one may not see the reason why, it exists, and reflection can tell you a lot.
The first thought? When is that? A newborn instinctively cries to attract attention, yet, is that a programmed response or a thought?
Transhumanism is the end-game of the current civilization that has completely lost it’s way? Where are the just? No, I’m not talking about religious labels.
Will all be lost, just like the losses of the past that saw entire civilizations wiped from the planet, or is there something that can be done?

Sorry if I repeat myself.

Very interesting. I must admit I was only familiar with one name on the final five list in part 5. Transhumanism is the expression of unbounded arrogance of supremely insane individuals who have nothing left to live for. They require the darkest causes to cling to in order to justify their putrid existence.

Hi PSI Readers:
Two nouns: Philosophy and Science
Noun—philosophy—the study of the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality, and existence, especially when considered as an academic discipline.
Noun——science—the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment.
If one does not read about observations and/or experimental results one is reading about someone’s philosophy; not someone’s science.
Have a good day, Jerry
