Not even one instrument the modern lab coats have made can study "life" itself.

They have failed from their very first start with their incomplete defective western materialism .......

Who's spiritual, who's material, who's cultural, who's scientific, who's technical--none of us chose those "callings." It just happened to us. We can't imagine how it could have turned out any other way.

The telescope only can see the material plane.

Sorry you have failed and are wrong again ......

Verdi got snarled in a young women's hair last night during our annual climbing party. I'm really not a very skilled pilot. Safe to say having a drone stuck in her hair was probably a first for her.

Quite possibly, Mike. Certainly some personalities, by genetics, are far better suited for one thing than another. I have friends who are accomplished as mathematicians or physical scientists, and who will read or watch only factual material and will never pick up a classic or fiction book, nor watch anything on the tube but news and technical output. It's all very exciting for them, but creations of fiction are uninteresting and/or meaningless.

On the other hand I am always reading fiction and watching fictional entertainment, and might have gone into more cultural endeavors had the moments been right. And you yourself are a spiritual person but also a scholar.

edit: Misinterpreted. Sorry.

I think Verdi must have some adolescent hormones. Take a firmer hand, dad!

TVash that's hilarious.
We got a Verdi about the same day you did. Second flight i flew it into my daughters lip. She jus stood there with a drop of blood rolling down her chin. i asked her if it hurt? She just said, "No, My Turn!"

Sometimes it feels like everyone else in the world is me too. Like my consciousness is splintered and conversing with itself, loving itself, killing itself. Especially when I read this forum because all your words are a voice in my head!

'My Massive Tiny Future Fleet'

To propagate a species,
Of hovering drones like flies about a feces,
Where every humanoid were monitored all twenty four,
And so much more,

I touched on channel ninety nine and billion nine,
It was so benign,
It bored me then I slept,
So many so inept,

That day I read Superstocious Religiosus,
vs Scientosis,
The decillionth posting,
With all its goofy crap and boasting,
I just laughed and laughed,
And rode my pet giraffe,
Home to my better half.

Oh, just great. (MikeL)

Regarding A. P. Carter (physicist) as SecDef.



William Perry wasn't so bad and he was a mathematician.

What's your problem? What qualifications would you recommend?

Thomas Friedman agrees...

"How ISIS Drives Muslims From Islam"

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/07/opinion/sunday/thomas-l-friedman-how-isis-drives-muslims-from-islam.html?smid=tw-TomFriedman&seid=auto&_r=0

If only we could change the time scale like we do on so many of our electronic and computer devices, and experience the demise of Abrahamic religion, not over hours or days (a watched pot never boils) but over decades or centuries. But of course as beings whose life span is measured in decades this is more or less practically impossible. Shucks.

It's ovah for jehovah. Thanks Islam. Thanks ISIS. Thanks information age. Thanks YouTube. :)

.....

"Now that the Internet has created free, safe, alternative spaces and platforms to discuss these issues, outside the mosques and government-owned media, this war of ideas is on."

When Thomas Friedman gets around to talking against Abrahamic religion (in this case Islam or ISIS) then you know we're making progress. ;)
