    That might very well be the case. We touched on that a few times in the consciousness thread. I was once of the opinion that there seemed to be no reason that a brain made of synthetic neurons wouldn't elicit the same emergence of consciousness...

    In not posting that interesting discussion among mental giants of philosophy, quantum mechanics, and classical physics as to spark some long-winded debate, as wondering where the single dimension of time fits in between the relation to aerial...

    When it comes to weapons and illicit drug "superlabs" — the USA has more of them inside their own border than Canada, so maybe they ought to clean their own house before making it an excuse to go after Canada.

    Here's a bit of analysis to do with Canada. I was listening to this when I was jolted awake when Kokinda states at around 27:00 that 'first it's Greenland, the next is Canada." I would recommend listening to the whole first 27 minutes since that...

    A couple of things there. You might want to review my explanation for why afterlives are impossible as a preamble: https://www.theparacast.com/forum/threads/philosophy-science-the-unexplained-main-thread.14196/post-279444 That explanation would...

    All I know is we may not remember what we were here on earth in fact we may have no memories at all. However our energy will continue and that and the people we encountered in our lives remembering us is good enough for me.

    Interesting discussion. A mental shuffling of the ideas discussed here and on the consciousness thread. If I were asked whether of not the wave function actually exists, I'd point out that it relies on what it means for something to "actually...

    Our trouble is we do not know history - certainly not recent history, in detail. Sources: Christopher M. Bell, 'Thinking the Unthinkable: British and American Naval Strategies for an Anglo-American War, 1918-1931', The International History...

    Excellent summary. Adding to yours, my personal favorites were when Gene and Chris had guest listeners and forum participants on and they'd just talk shop. I'll never forget when Chris said the words — "Linda Mouldy Cow" :p

    Sure — so are the other "conspiracy theories" ( The plandemic included ). I'm using the phrase "conspiracy theory" very loosely there. Just because such ideas tend to get pushed over into that category, doesn't mean they're not true. In fact, it...

    No conspiracy theory. It is a description of events as the decades played out, acknowledged by innumerable historians of whatever proclivity. America was the lynchpin of NATO that poured its treasure into 'defending' Europe and fighting its wars...

    At around 11:00 she says the key phrase: "Trump's moves on Greenland aren't about territorial expansion, they're about ending NATO as an instrument of Imperial Control .... " [I have to insert this note here because I lost the editing window]

    There's another way of looking at NATO, and that is that it was formed by the British to control America. Because at the end of WW2 there was no reason to fear Russia. They had fought on 'our' side. In fact their losses far exceeded our losses...

    Actually, UK Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin was the driving the concept for a transatlantic alliance against Soviet expansion, supported by Canadian diplomat Lester B. Pearson, who helped draft the treaty, and US Senator Arthur Vandenberg, whose...

    Why the US is deporting so many people ? Wow — So much for Trump being better than Biden. That didn't last long. So glad I didn't move to the USA ( from Canada ) — Trump's gone over the edge.

    Randall replied to the thread Update on Gene, Tuesday Nov. 18.
    Even after I resigned in protest of his censorship of COVID news and his support for the vax mandates, behind the scenes, Gene and I usually got back to each another fairly quickly — so this extended absence isn't a good sign. Someone needs to...

    Alex Krainer's take on NATO is out of whack. NATO was formed as a league of Democratic Nations for the purpose of providing mutual support in the event of an attack on any member nation, and the Soviets were considered the most likely threat for...

    These guys are the greatest. I learn so much from them. Susan Kokinda from Promethean has swiveled my head around the British Imperial System vs the American System (had never been aware of that) and the Anglo-Dutch Banking System - it's amazing...
