Ever want to lose weight with out the gym try traveling……. long range traveling. If a person weighed 100 Lbs on Earth the would only weigh about 38 Lbs. on Mars. This trip would be about 214 days ( earth days) to get there which im sure after eating the food on the shuttel for that long you would be even lighter as well I bet.
An apple a day….. We have herd this many times but somthing most dont know about apples is that If one plants an apple seed over 85% of the time the tree that grows from it will not be the same as the apple that the seed came from.
How many hours have you spent playing Rock,Paper,Scissors, as you grew up and maybe even now? In all that time how many times have you asked your opponant or yourself how the heck does paper beat rock? It’s clear how rock crushes scissors, and how scissors cut paper but paper beating rock … come on now now really right?
Back in the day, way back in ancient China when one had to put forth one’s petitions to the Emperor for approvel. If the petition was accepted or approved then the document being approved would be placed under a rock. If it was denied or unacceptable then it would be draped over the rock with no worry if it blew away. Hence paper covering rock became symbolic to defeat or lose. So now we have paper beats rock.
I’ve talked a lot about how Religion and Science are constantly at war. It’s sort of like the Capulets and Montagues from Romeo and Juliet. There are however rare occassions where a Romeo (Science) comes along and meets a Juliet (Religion) and they team up to screw us over together!
What I’d like to talk about today is something called “temple science”. It was new to me, and I’m shocked that I’d never heard about it. Back in the days when Christianity was just a small cult, and when the Roman Polytheism was still in rotation the temples used to employ fantastic and incredibly advanced engineering to FOOL people into believing the Gods were real and present in the temples. This included falsifying miracles.
How do we know this was happening? Well, although the secrets of the temples was jealously, and meticulously guarded they were all recorded by the inventor of these tricks Heron of Alexandria. This book and these secrets were never made known to the contemporaries of the time and only discovered much later at the fall of the empires.
The “Miracles” included in these books and used in the temples (and I suspect the foundation of Christianitie’s miracles) included ways to blind and then miraculously cure someone of blindness, how to automatically open and close temple doors, how to make statues cry blood (very common in Christianity), and how to make other statues move, hover, fly, and speak. They also had machines that would make thunder without human interaction at the lighting of a sacrifice as the God’s were often thought to arrive and travel with the thunder and lightning.
Witnessing miracles such as these would be just the thing to launch a new religion or keep a floundering one afloat. Hasn’t it ever struck you as odd that all these miracles no longer take place? Today we have the means of uncovering the mysteries behind , and debunking so called miracles so they are no longer attempted for the most part. 1000 years ago however people could be sufficiently awed to become believers by any of these temple tricks, and too God-fearing to look too deeply in them for fraud.
It is things like this that could seperate an upstart short lived religion or cult from a long lasting and near universally accepted religion. This is another reason why new religions almost never spring up in the modern world or really take hold. That is probably a good thing in my view.
One final thing to consider is the exceptional minds that came up with “temple science” couldn’t have believed in what they were preaching, otherwise they wouldn’t need or DARE to fool people into believing what they wanted them to. For the most part religion is just one easy way for very smart people to control less intelligent people into doing what they tell them to do. “Faith” is a great way to make people do something they wouldn’t normally do under other circumstances.
If you’re a member of a church ask yourself; How much power does my church have over your congregations life, and your day to day behaviors? If you knew that they needed to fake God’s existance in the past what has changed between then and now? If you knew there was no god would you still give the church power simply for the message they preach?
So many of us growing up remember seeing the Great Lion that was the logo of MGM. What most of us do not know is that the lion used in the logo attacked and killed its handler and his 2 assistants the day after filming the very logo we see.
How long Do you think till the zombies are walking amongst us? Many believe that the time is already upon us. With all the reports of the dead having been encountered and in turn dispatched, It would seem they are here off and on and only a matter of time before they manage to stay. What do you think? Do we have zombies within our lives already ?
How long do we have to prepare? Do you think that you are ready or your local area? Is it ready? Do you, your friends, and or family have what is needed to survive and maybe even help fight the growing ranks of the dead? Let me know yes or no, and if yes what they have done to get ready.
MY area I think most do not believe in zombies. Hell most haven’t even thought about them other than to watch a movie or two. At which time with the ending of the movie so ends their thought on said topic. ( OK more people to say I told you so to ………providing they live long enought to say it….). That being said MY area won’t be too bad off I think unless it starts right here which I doubt will happen ( mind you no one really thinks an outbreak will start right in their area). When/if the zombies start walking and we have any time at all of seeing it before its totally upon us ( most likely with this day and age internet, TV,Radio, ect ect. ) then we wont be too bad off as the population is low compared to most and we have many of the supplies at hand we need to fort up the places we live in ( at least to a level 2 outbreak ). Now many say a level 2 outbreak is fine to be ready for but the level 3 and up will overwhelm you and yes it would but being out of the general path of suspected movements ( other than randoms Zombies will most likely be following the masses north) we will be able to defend against upwards of 100 at a time in most places around here ( some exceptions will apply and hoping most will have left those spots before the hordes arieve) and with groups of between 1-100-ish coming and being destroyed before they can join up with others and becoming way to big to deal with then we should be able to keep the numbers down to a manageable count.
With the location I live in the surrounding terrain and the general population ( they have been known to adapt to and overcome many problems in the past) this new threat is recognized soon enough will be over come for the most part pretty easy till a lev 3 and up comes around ( If it did) and by then we would have I believe come together enough to have prepared a few strong points and ways to deal with the larger masses to help whittle them down to a more manageable ammount. At which time even if it seemed hopeless most would keep doing what they could to dwindle their numbers ( as giving up and not taking as many down as one can is a poor way to deal with anything). With this kind of mentality it would only be a matter of time till either one stronghold or another got free and helped the other and then the next till all were freed or outside help arrived to free us to find we had made the job easier by doing what we could. Thus we would not be adding to the overall hordes and be reducing the growing numbers of undead at the same time and maybe just maybe giving many a starting point to start clearing the rest of the area and country.
This all is based on people around here ( not just the few of us seeing things as they could become ) recognizing the problem and taking the steps to help prevent it from getting out of hand here like, accepting that it is happening (no it cant be happening here……. Hun why are you trying to bite my leg offffffffff…….. oh crap…..), looking for it even were we do not want it to be ( family and friends), and realizing those coming in may be infected ( maybe NOT nothing is certain) and taking the steps needed to check and or deal with it.
Now I would like to read about where you are from and what you think of the way your area could be defended and the general reaction to and dealing with an outbreak if/when it happens.
Ever wonder where some of the songs you listen to get there names from?
Here’s one of my favorites. American Pie the wonderful song sung by Don McLean about Buddy Holly, was the name of the plane Buddy crashed and was killed in.
Boxing Day, That day where so many have come to look forword to the maddest rush ( second only to the last minute dash to the store for the presant you forgot to get on the evening of the 24th) of the year trying to get that greatly reduced item at the store on the day after christmas.
Now this is a great tradition ………… minus the fact that its a bit off what the real tradition was. In the days of Yor it was a tradition for the well-to-do to deliver or drop off boxes containing food stuff and hand me down clothes and shoes ect that were still good to the poor or lower class (this was done the day after christmas allowing those of upper status to find out what they had retrieved on the 25th and clear away the seconds or used items they still had on the 26th).
Since the upper class were generally the owners of the stores they would use this day to clear away the seasonal stuff at near to or at cost from their store shelves as well.
Now we find it is only the big stores doing it as a means to make a little extra money off of an otherwise generous tradition to help ones fellow man.
One idea to consider in the war against the hordes of zombies is Bio suits. Yes I said it, Bio suits. It is thought in some circles that the bio suit if donned and sterilized completely will prevent the “zombie” from being able to tell you are there and thus if one is careful one could be able to move around or travel with out the zombies trying to take a bite. Now although this would be great and I would love to be able to move about and do the many things I believe will need to be done during this time of peril, the bio suit idea has many faults in it. First we do not know how the “Zombie” differentiates the living from other undead( I know I’ve had trouble telling sometimes, considering some peoples hygeine standards). This is not something I would like to just go out and try and see what will happen ( I dont like to run now let alone try to run in one of those suits). The zombie still has the ability to smell which would be blocked by the suit if sterilized right, sight ( if they haven’t lost their eyes, something that dont seem to bother them as much as us) hearing, or maybe just the ability to sense the life forces of the living ( like walking into a house with home made bread baking, yum yum good). If it was simply the smell leading them to us then any strong smell like large amounts of bleach, ammonia, and many many other things, (no I am sure your friends farts no matter how bad will not work but I do understand the suffering)would work yet none of the reported attacks throughout history mention it ( this may be because any place with a large enough smell present, may not have been attacked while others were and it was chalked up to luck).
I believe that no one sense is the leading factor to there ability to detect us, as zombies with no nose, which requires the movement of air to be functional, no eyes which would seem to be affected by darkness & light, or no ears for the use of sound all have the ability to find the living and those missing most or all of these seem to keep trying to get to those living around them.
What do you think? What are you ideas on what will or wont work?
So I have talked about what i think may happen and used the term what if a few times and just maybe. Iv talked about things i think you should do if/ when zombies walk this earth in mass and covered what you should not do ( at least in some small amount).
Preperation and planning being the biggest thing i have emphasized, talked about a few things i have found odd like the truly stunning vids on the net and interviews with people that have seen them for real just no longer being on the net. I have had a few not so nice contacts with the non believers and been called a few nasty names( thank you by the way because if you are going to the point of calling me names for what i am typing then you are thinking about it and just might live when it dose happen).
Now I would like to talk about the believers out there and yes i have talked with a bunch of people like me who think that the idea of ” zombies” walking the earth is not so far out of the realm of possibility that we are will to go blind to the thought and forego our rights to prepair. The term of Zombie differs amoungst the ones I have been talking to, with everything from the dead just coming back like in the movies to a messed up version of”RAGE” like in the movie “28 days later” but all agree that we must try to get ready for it and watch for it.
There are some out there that believe so much so that they have even started business on the theory of the dead wanting to eat us . These are legit business and have been around for some time, and unlike most of the fly by night lets make a few dollers ( as in a shit load) and get our names known( anything for the 5 minutes of fame) and just cause trouble ( like the fool Harold Egbert Camping ). these business have been around and doing fine for some time now with no real complaints from any of there customers (lets see the peole that took there lives, sold everything and destroyed the lives and savings of they worked so hard to have that listened to Harold Camping say that). so many people have reported and so many cultures have “had ” outbreaks or attacks and each of the major countries in the second world war had units dedicated to the detection and protection from undead and or the use of sad undead/ zombies in the war effort. could so many “smart people be fooled so fully and in turn each be willing to spend so much of the needed resources from the war effort and put it onto this if they didnt have proof….. I dont think they all would have a few countries yes but not that many of them.
I have been told by one lady she has found her great grandfathers jurnel and in it he refures to the passed on coming back to punish us for the death and wars we have entered into. ” they do not feel, breath or need anything we need to keep going,…. they dont stop unless they lose their head”. She has sent this book off to have it varified and i await the chace to look at it in detail when it returns.
If you have or know anyone that has had a legitimate sighting or encounter of like the lady mentioned before have other documented proof i would love to hear your story and see what you have on the topic.
