Yes, he had a great point with his position on how the church was using the people. However, he had his own set of nonsense philosophies as well. It's not that he was stupid, it's that he seemed to only rely on his own philosophical understanding of the world, and that's where humanity has always fallen short. "Beware of the philosophies of men". That's a very true statement. No need to be religious, just read for yourself. What books are you currently reading Hack? Archive.org is your friend. You can find all types of books there. Some of these books if I find important enough I buy the actual book. Never know what the internet restrictions will be in the future. Why? Do they have books a step away from being burned or hidden? Because there's truth in them? I'll look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll look Yes. Archive.com basically has digital versions of tons of books from all era's. You can find many written and published in the 1800's, some as far back to the 1600's. Alot of these books are revived by publishing companies such as "Forgotten Books publishing" if you actually want to purchase. They basically find old books that they may deem as history important to humanity and they will scan the pages from whatever source material and republish the book. They're not associated with the website, but I've become familiar with this particular publishing company as of late because I've been buying quite a few older books around 150 years old. I like the website in particular because you can do keyword searches so if you're reading a main book but simply want to quick check that information from other sources using other books for "fact checking" you can do all of that on Archive while being able to search for keywords, and then reading a few passages before and after the keyword to establish and maintain context.

If you like smoothness to your drink as well as not that sh*tfaced drunk feeling after a few rounds then def try Ron Diplomatico. It's flavorful enough to enjoy as a mix with Soda, you can drink it straight and not burn your your throat, have it warm or on the rocks....even cook with it. Its a very versatile rum and you can get a bottle in the States for less than $40 bucks, and it rivals Rums in the $100-$150 range easily. Trust, I was always the basica vodka cocktail guy anytime I had a drink and I always stayed away from rums for example given the crap I tried before. Ron as well as Klecko's fav Zacapa are both really good. Diplomatico is just more my speed. Just keep a bottle in the house. Lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asked me once.. "do you use Google?"..she wasnt being sarcastic. She doesn't even understand basic sarcasm. thinks you're being mean or rude.She can't make natural adult assumptions. i was in the hospital for 8 hours because of a rapid heart rate.. we leave ( me with my sister and mother) she says "do you want to go to Nancys Burgers?...she wasn't being funny. She doesn't get sarcasm. I had to come to the sad realization that my sister is literally that stupid.really? Suggesting a fast food burger after a heart issue? The typical American robot drone. She sits in a recliner with a laptop on her thighs 12 to 17 hours a day. She's been playing one of those pc build and conquer games for years now .If sitting is the new smoking, she's beating the odds. Sadly, she is the common denominator of the general public. The only skill she has is reading and following instruction booklets to a T. But no creative or critical thinking skills. Unless you do something like she does, you're doing it wrong. But she never leaves her house and has no friends. She somehow got married a second time. Women have it so ******* easy in this world. Oh. .she seldom turns on her main tv. But made sure to watch the 50 year moonlanding show, on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im simply putting a mirror on your own words, not in a way of being an arsehole, but maybe as a way for you to consider that though you don't agree with many of my conclusions, maybe the general point Im presenting however that something isnt right could actually be correct. Here's another "catch 22" in your own words. Quote You both should remember, much like astronauts that were fake-dead would use different names, those that are actually looking to deceive you and out for your soul will appear to be like-minded Question. Are we (me and you) of "like minds" right now? Is it often that we're ever of like-mind? Anytime there's a discussion like this, it seems like im on a contrary side of the popular view...amirite??? These are your own words my friend, not mine. And I, 100% agree with you. Maybe you should take heed to your own words the next time you're in a room and the entire room is of like-mind and lock-step with you...outside of those 1or 2 folks who are "always wrong", until they're said to be "right" but by that time folks have decided "not to care". ?? Remember Dom, my random friend...it doesnt serve me or anyone well to be called or thought of as a dumb ass, idiot and stupid all day long. If im willing to accept these reactions and not waver in my position, it must be for a reason....and that reason sure as hell isn't because im dealing with folks of "like-mind". Yet the irony of it all is that it's me saying "beware of these deceptions" while all the folks of like-mind makes the "proverbial hat that im wearing" out to be made of tinfoil for even considering these to be deceptions. But, I guess we'll have to run with the saying that you don't care. I wish people did. Quite unfortunate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTM Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 On 7/20/2019 at 2:40 PM, Villain The Foe said: I see that NASA is in anniversary mode. Cool. Lets see what they've done since then. Here's a NASA image courtesy of the "DSCOVR EPIC" team which shows the backside of the moon and the earth behind the moon. Just so folks know that this is a legit NASA image, it's been taken directly from their own website. Here's the link: https://visibleearth.nasa.gov/view.php?id=86353 Lets take a closer look at this image. Has anyone spotted the problem yet? Let me not expose it yet, but instead let me continue to provide some more images. Below are a Series of images showing the Moon transiting Earth, captured by "NASA's EPOXI" spacecraft. The official NASA link to these images along with actual video is here: https://www.nasa.gov/topics/solarsystem/features/epoxi_transit.html Have you spotted the problem? Shall I give a hint? Okay. Look closely at the images. Notice how absolutely large the Earth looks while also having the entirety of the moon in every shot? I know some may say "Duh, Earth is estimated to be 4 times the size of the Moon and the images you provided proves it". You know...let me get right to it. Here is an image of Apollo 8 called "Earthrise". "This view of the rising Earth greeted the Apollo 8 astronauts as they came from behind the moon after the lunar orbit insertion burn. Earth is about five degrees above the horizon in the photo". Here's the NASA link to this shot. https://moon.nasa.gov/resources/69/earthrise/ I have a question. Why is the earth so small? Lets look at another alleged astronaut image. Here's an image of Earth from the Apollo 11 mission. "This view from the Apollo 11 spacecraft shows the Earth rising above the moon's horizon. The lunar terrain pictured is in the area of Smyth's Sea on the nearside". Here's the NASA link for this photo also. https://moon.nasa.gov/resources/187/apollo-11-mission-image-view-of-moon-limb-with-earth-on-the-horizon/ Why is it that earth is so small in these images yet the images above not only show an Earth of a massive size in comparison, but if you look closely you can even see cloud formations on earth that are similar in size to the moon. yet for some reason the earth's size is drastically different while on the moon's surface? A moon with no atmosphere to interfere with what you see??? I think these images are worth 1000 words. Happy 50th anniversary NASA and I wish the best of luck to those now fighting with cognitive dissonance after seeing this. However, here's something that you can do to help defeat that dissonance. Think to yourself. "Why is it that there has been so much video footage captured personally by astronauts from the moon's surface yet none of them...not'a one, has ever had the bright idea of simply panning the video camera to the sky in order to view to earth and simply recording it? Wouldnt that be the #1 most obvious thing to do when on the f'ing moon?" Even if the recorder is attached to the suit, there are ways to view the sky with the assistance of other astronauts. Also, where were all the "mega jumps" while in 1/6 gravity?. You know what you'll also never see? Stars. Wanna know why? Because the details are in the stars people. If they cant replicate all of the stars in the sky to their exact positioning in the sky relative to both the moon as well as Earth, then the best thing to do is to simply never show them. Problem solved. Remember, we can see a full sky of stars on earth, even with atmospheric interference. The moon doesnt have that issue because it barely has an atmosphere. The stars should look the clearest and the most brightest on the moon, especially from the dark side of the moon. Secondly, during ancient times and even today, humanity has always been able to use the sky as a clock or for navigation. There are too many stars in the sky for all of these space programs to replicate them accurately because anyone from earth could simply tell by their own point of view of the night sky and tell that what they're presenting is utter bull crap. So the best thing to do is to never show stars. Let me let you in on this...it's fake. lol. Like I said, the only thing that was sent to the moon was our imagination. And to be honest, though I "lol", it really isnt funny. Like evolution, folks really do believe this. Even I did at one time. You have to be trolling here. This is basic perspective. From my backyard my house appears bigger than the sun. Same concept 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same concept Folks need to stop commenting and take the time to understand what scaling of objects are that ARE NOT 93 million miles away from one another. If NASA can take this shot here at a distance of 31 million miles away from earth, then the moon doesnt get bigger while the earth suddenly gets smaller because you're now standing on the moon. If NASA were to take a similar picture 31 million miles away from the Earth, but with the Sun behind the earth, the Sun wouldnt suddenly grow to this massive size because you're no longer on earth viewing the sun. The sun would still be smaller in comparison because of how far away it already is. Why is this so haaaaard to understand? The picture you're looking at PROVES the shenanigans, it's just that folks either dont comprehend the difference between scaling of objects of the size of the Earth and moon at just 239,000 miles apart relative to the sun and earth with the sun being 93 million miles away from it. Do not immediately respond. Take the time to understand what was just said to you. And then, still do not respond. Think about it again just to make sure you understand that Earth looks this size next to the moon because it's not at a far enough distance to look smaller, as the Sun for example.
