_____I heard on tv tonight that the ancient Phoenicians had a religious “requirement” that all females had to spend a night in the temple and sleep with a strange man. It got me to thinking.
_____We know that females feel their strongest sexual desires around the age of fifteen, and it is not difficult to surmise that, given the allowance of society, any female would reach out to the male that most arouses her at that time. This would result in the most genetically diverse population possible and further, I am convinced, in the strongest orgasm possible, which, I am also convinced, will develop the ablest human being.
_____The whole documentary suggested that the Phoenicians were one of the few, if not the only sane nation in the Mediterranean area. I hope I learn more.
_____I must add that if the female is allowed to select at the height of her bodies desire to become pregnant, she will automatically select the male most perfectly aligned with her bodies desire for the best child possible.
_____I just had a flash about race relations in america. I’d really like some feedback on this.
_____We owe the brown people of america reparations for the struggles they have gone through in the last four hundred years and are still going through today. When we pay them for all their suffering we will have a fully integrated society.
_____We need to give the browner of us education as though they were very wealthy, give them a reduction in cost everywhere, and do it for three generations. It will take us two generations to get over the anger at treating them as though they were better than us, but during the third generation we will see that they are as good as us, and they will gratefully accept brotherhood.
_____I just watched a documentary about the world trade center and high-rise building strength. When it came on I was glad because I had heard of someone ranting awhile ago about a third world trade center building that had not suffered a direct hit collapsing, and, since I had never heard that before, I felt sure that this show would answer my question. The man held that it was “planned to collapse” as part of a conspiracy.
_____As they got into it, it was obvious to me that there had not been a third building collapse. They were out to discover if the collapse was caused by a lack of structural integrity, a question much better answered by a building collapsing without a direct hit. They spent about 15 minutes talking about investigating the rubble, then another 15 talking about studies, simulations and tests, then went off to a building under construction in Shanghi being built well. They never mentioned a third building. At that point I couldn’t help but conclude that there was no other collapse.
_____Then they blew my mind. They started talking about how the new number 7 world trade center, being built where the third building collapsed, was much safer. One has to wonder about the conspiracy.
_____Let’s put this into perspective. The mohammedans moved into southern europe around the 700’s. They were smarter than the christians, and they excelled.
_____The christians became afraid, and they declared war on the mohammedans around the year 800. This war is still going on.
_____That is the perspective.
At age eleven, in sixth grade, I loved and trusted my teacher. She introduced me to science and, in particular, to evolution, telling us all, wistfully, that science knew virtually nothing of it, other than its existence.
That was the last of my academic education in science, but I read, and devoured any and all information found in the popular press, popular books, movies and television on science and evolution in particular. Some thirty years later I felt I had reached a full understanding of evolution and a fair understanding of science in general. I didn’t stop studying because it is a source of joy for me, but I felt comfortable in my accumulation of scientific knowledge.
I started noticing scientific conclusions being drawn erroneously given knowledge I was sure of. I let them ferment, expecting to learn more at a later date. A nagging sense that science had some basic misconceptions grew until suddenly some six years ago, I discovered that science was wrong at the very basic level about evolution, the stuff of the universe, and the structure of man.
To say the least I was stunned. I immediately immersed myself in organizing my understanding. It is organized, I am beginning to write, and I am looking for a publisher.

_____The day Bill Gates announced he was planning to devote his time to giving away his money I wrote about it in this blog, suggesting the next thing for him to do would be to cajole his friends into doing the same thing. Hardly a week later, his friend Warren Buffet, the second richest man in the world, announces he will give 85% of his wealth to charity through Bill Gates group, thereby assuring more of that 85% will go to the poor, less to administration.
_____And to think, all that power, and no-one even reads my blog.
Bill Gates announced this afternoon that he was “phasing out” at Microsoft so he could spend more time on his charity work. A pundit said he wanted to be known for something more than Windows, and that he was thinking in terms of history.
He could have his history. He actually is in a unique position and could save the world, becoming the prime mover in a movement that would result in the end of strife and war for the human race.
We are evolving. I know no-one understands evolution, but I do, (see my web page,) and this strife will be greatly reduced when evolution is understood by the world. Bill Gates could demonstrate that understanding without even understanding it himself, so long as he is sincere about his desire to go down in history as someone great. If he were to do the work, the end result would be, not reduction but loss of strife and war.
Evolution works like this. A species will evolve until it finds itself satisfied within it’s environment. Then it will enter stasis, living in satisfaction thereafter. We became intellectually aware some 7000 years ago in the process of evolving, and immediately mistook the specieal need for evolutionary satisfaction for a personal desire, calling in strife and war. The human race needs to feel satisfaction, and until the species does, we will continue to have strife and war.
In general the human race will feel satisfied if it has food, shelter, health care, clothing, and education without expense. It doesn’t have to be fine cuisine, opulent palaces, a doctor at your bedside at all times, or the guarantee of Princeton for every child, but sufficient that they are fed, warm, covered, protected from the weather, can read, write & cipher, and have help when ill.
Bill Gates is the richest man in the world. If he were to announce his intention to immediately apply half of his wealth to a plan wherein all the peoples of Africa would be provided with school/clinics, sufficient beans and rice, permanent dwellings & clothing and actually began carrying out that plan, and he could at the same time cajole the other richest in the world to give up half theirs to a similar plan, in no time the world could have it’s basic needs met, and strife and war would fairly soon grind to a halt.
how does one start? i’m also learning to type. great times, ‘ey?
i think about a lot of stuf, and i hope to offer food for those that may enjoy thinking. i think about creation/evolution, abortion, homosexuality, teen pregnancy, and yet a small horde of other subjects. I’m self-taught and continually surprised at the wrong thinking of most that have been “taught”.
we’ll see…
