the benefits of qp - speeding with safety

speeding with safetyI was chatting to a photographer today who's quite 'spiritually aware'. He's up to speed, so to speak, with the intuitive, artistic dimensions to life. In fact he spoke in terms of waves, and how we can build them (but not strictly from a quantum mechanical perspective -- but I digress).

As we chatted he suggested that I need to make my work more digestible, not so technical for the masses.

Interesting reading

Some years ago I attempted to correct some errors on Wikipedia concerning Zeno's Paradoxes.

Having reread my contributions I've reprinted here. It's interesting reading, in particular the bias by some towards repeated dogmatic assertions that have no evidence in fact.

Note: I've highlighted my contributions for convenience of reading

About Awkward Truths

Awkward Truths is a highly irreverent, insightful exposé of the many closed, limiting and fearful beliefs widely entrenched in science, business, religion, academia, politics and new-age philosophies.

Making God small. Not good.

The white-bearded guy in the skyWhile at a social function recently I got chatting with some religious people who started to talk about how we're all 'fallen', sinners in need of saving, and how we're all needing His forgiveness, and so on.

Now, from a systems perspective this all makes no sense.1

So I asked, "if God is infinite, isn't all necessarily WITHIN God? After all," I added, "if we and all else, including evil is not of God, then we're outside and beyond the infinite -- and that would make us and evil bigger than God. That would make God small relative to us, and relative to evil."

"Best not do that," I said.

"Think of it this way," I explained "God is infinite ... literally that means "He" has no limits -- he's everywhere, and in everything, everyone, every spirit, including Evil. In other words, everything and everyone is of God.  It's His energy that's behind all the muck-ups, and the beautiful wonderful things, and ..."

If all -- including Evil -- is not God's creation then that means "He" has limits to where His creative energy goes. That makes Him small. Best not do that.

If it's not His energy, then it's someone else's, but that again means, He has limits to where His energy goes.2

Pretty straight-forward, I would think, to understand all this.
