Welcome to my brain. It’s messy. It’s interesting. And it’s all connected if you stick around long enough. "Believe Nothing: no matter who said, even if I have said it, except it agree with your own reason and common sense. Siddhartha Guatamo, the Buddha.

Satyrday homework

not the book-kind, but domestics sorta thingy.

housekeeping, yard work, mower repairs (its amazing what a new sparkplug can achieve) and tossing some ‘games’ (discipline) to the Cozz here and there.    He’s an attentive but short attention span theater type, also known as PUPPY.   6 months old now and still as puppyish as he was 3 months ago.   A doubled in weight puppy.  Over 50# now, so no one can say I’m starving the boy: and its good weight, still slim in the belly area, can’t see ribs unless he’s stretched out tight, and his fur is showing gloss again since his little bout with the itchy-scratchy’s.

Still tootin’ to clear buildings,,,   Thats a Pittie thing from all I have researched, and the vet concurs.    Alleviate, but won’t ever go away.   (Who invited Pepe le Pew into the breeding kennels when they decided to make Pitbulls? LOL)

No chats with ChatGPT the last couple.  Haven’t anything I wanted to research or discuss with a computer.    Been going off on a tangent in my Utoob feeds, kinda fun, kinda freaky, definitely NOT mainstream thinks.   Here’s a sample (fair warning, not short.)

No, I don’t ‘mirror’ his thinking, but I am always intrigued by comparative religion stuff.    The Cathars were one of those groups that were stigmatized by the Mainstream for centuries, and genocided by the church after the muslim Crusades had come to conclusion.   Fact: this was definitely a case of ‘remove the competition’, not ‘just’  the Heresy factor the church claimed.   The Cathars were doing so much better off than places where it was strictly Catholic influence, and word was starting to spread.      WHAT they believed?–and I don’t know  that what the man in the video says is accurate; its a debatable point this far along the timeline, and probably never going to be fully answered.    The problem there is ‘history is written by the winners’.   Rarely do we find documentation from the losers. Like the dead sea scrolls and some others.  Things that make you ask ‘To whose benefit’ were these supressed?

Still, some thinks to get the mind chewing on things NOT immediate and troublesome, like chewy dawgums that want to be Freeeeeee!!!!!!!!!   No wanna play that ‘sit-stay’ game dada,,,,

Stuff like whats in that video are my entertainment now.   Exploring history, religion, how things have evolved over the centuries, how much closer aligned they were way-back-a-when,    Mapping the flow of ideologies across the continents, the time-lines and coorelating wars and strifes.   Such as the Mongol Hoards, timed with record drought in that region, so the expansion wasn’t as much about power as it was expanding food resources for survival.  (not really related to dogmas, but you can see how exodus’ and such may have had more to do with climate, and the dogmas were the ‘logic’ applied to get people moving in herd fashion.)

And some will ask me: What’s the point? It’s not like it’s going to make a difference now. True. Probably not. But here’s the thing—I like truth. And I’ve always had questions about the Christian faiths. You know, the kind of questions that don’t go away unless you chalk the whole thing up to human nature running the show, not divine intervention.

Because let’s be honest—the God of the Old Testament? Reads more like a drunken, abusive dad than the warm, fuzzy father figure of the New. And yet, no church ever seems to want to touch that little plot twist. So what happened? God went to rehab between Testaments? Got Himself a life coach? Come on. That logic just breeds more questions than it answers.

I know that some of my readers are fairly devout, and I am not trying to start a war here.   If you don’t like this line of thought, don’t read it,,,  I’m not going to debate this in comments, and what I post about, like that video, may, or MAY NOT, be in-line with my personal thoughts: I am only posting it because I found it interesting and thoughtful (and well laid out, not some heebie-jeebie word salad thought spill.)

My beliefs are mine, you have yours, and we can get along just fine with different points of view on stuff, so long as neither of us takes it personal.  

And my search is never ending, always in flux, and open to interpretation at whim.    I AM judgemental, but not set in concrete; new evidence can allow me to toss a judgement onto the fire and choose a new one.  And I can entertain ideas like the ones above and not hold them as GOSPEL truth, just some randomness in thoughts that MAY illuminate some other aspect of my learning: thats the INTUITION side of my personality.

I will say though: IF, the Cathars belief of the Jesus (Yeshuah) teachings as they worded it, were in fact what they believed, then what we are learning in Quantum mechanics follows into that ‘riddle’ “The deeper you look, the more you will find me”.  And on that note, MY beliefs that we are actually creatures of the quantum cloud and this body is an avatar for our learning experiances, might be closer to Truth.   (if this paragraph confuses you, watch the video: context is within.)

Are my searches feeding some kind of self-fulfilling prophecy? Could be. With algorithms running the show, it’s more than possible. But really—who knows anything? It’s all mind games, just noise to drown out the bigger, uglier truth: the “real world” might be racing toward nuclear oblivion. Me? I’d rather spend whatever time’s left pondering stuff than fretting over the tantrums of megalomaniacs

IN other words, believe what you want to believe, but don’t be surprised when the roof falls in on you.   I’m waiting for my roof to collapse every day!

    A pastor I grew up with said it best. We are spiritual beings having a physical experience. I’ve tried different stuff and found that the new testament Christianity works well if it’s properly applied. The organized Christian Church leaves a lot to be desired… To businesslike for me. Put your offering in and check the box for the week…

    Rule 1, love God with your heart mind soul and strength.

    Rule 2, love your neighbor as yourself.

    And there’s the rub. Define love… Self love? Seems kind of selfish to me. Selfless love? Ok, that’s better but that runs counter to the survival instinct.

    Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

    The problem I keep running into is how to love the evil people. And they are out there. They breed and they vote.

    If I get it all figured out I’ll let you know. But watch how they treat animals, that’ll tell you a lot about their character.

    • “spiritual beings having a physical experiance” I like that. wish more would have that outlook.
      And yup,,, How people treat animals says loads about their character. Seen a few homeless with dogs and you can tell the ones that are trying vs the waste-cases, just by the dog.

      • Sort of the Douglas Adams HHGTTG take?

        “One theory of the Universe is that if anyone ever figures out just what is and what it is for, that it will be immediately replaced with something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

        The other theory is that this has already happened.”
