That surely is your territory. Having said that, religions like all other human pursuits are subject to conscious and unconscious selection. I am in no position to criticize as I hold unorthodox views on science and physics as well. For me I also try to harvest the sciences for human use. The biphoton thing looks interesting, and may lead to assisting with neurobiology, molecular biology, perhaps computing, and eventually the discovery of living Exo planets. As in "ooh look, the biophotonic spectrum is in the red, along with nitrogen and oxygen levels!" Well, maybe.

He calls bullshit on biophotons. I did find a few things on this after doing a search, and had heard of biophotons years ago from a UK researcher named JohnJoe McFadden. But it didn't help me in my own interests so I bought his books and moved forward anyway. I like my physics like I like coffee and alcohol, hard! Everything Ben writes is completely from the lunatic fringe. I drink coffee, but rarely drink alcohol. LC https://johnjoemcfadden.co.uk/Biophotons seems legit to me, although the work appears to be driven by biologists rather than LC type physicists. Like this-https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/23/5/554/htm Could a unobserved region of our own solar system be the source -a very feint one-of dark matter and especially energy? I am too ignorant to say yes or no. I mean there also could be an intelligent but ancient probe from Barnard's Star, but unless we have material evidence, it's all just you and I speculating. No, I as yet don't know or see Mr. Jesus as the only way to the Father, as your team insists. I mean you guys do have emotional stake in that claim, which I understand. If he was not who you say was, then what about your families. I understand the existential and know it well. If my neck is stiff, it is from watching the new administration shift back and forth on their vaunted policies. I rather like atheist skeptic Shermer's last law (2002) https://www.edge.org/response-detail/11150 SOLD! Narcissism is simply believing that the world revolves around me. What drives the progressivists is not narcissism but 'self-righteousness.' I grew up expecting religious folks to be self-righteous, and yeah they are. But they have nothing compared to the liberals and their Virtue Signaling each other. Go team! For me, as Bruno accurately pointed out, I am a utilitarian, a pragmatist, because I go for species survival as the primo thing. Thus, I shrug off the insults because it's just something programmed in via ideology. It comes with the territory and the one thing that makes liberals happiest is not merely the demise of their ideological opponents, but Loyalty! They adore this. They hated the Loyalty Oaths under Joe McCarthy, but by God, they crave it mucho gusto. There was a question asked (via a vid) that dealt with machinery. Now can a sufficiently sophisticated machine be conscious? What about some other planet where crystalline life evolved? Process may be similar, materials not water like us. Biophotons involved? I shrug my Neanderthal or Denisovan massive shoulders and ponder..Spud, the raging primordial (Why doth the primordial rage?) -----Original Message----- From: Philip Benjamin <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, Sep 23, 2021 11:30 am Subject: Narcissist Strategies to Sut Down an Arguement [Philip Benjamin] https://cognitiveheights.com/argument-with-narcissist/ June 1, 2020 by Aza S Three Phrases to Shut Down an Argument with a Narcissist. · “Narcissists use all sorts of strategies to get you to become mad and frustrated.
