Perhaps We Live In A Computer Simulation

“The observation made in 1965 by Gordon Moore, co-founder of Intel, that the number of transistors per square inch on integrated circuits had doubled every year since the integrated circuit was invented. Moore predicted that this trend would continue for the foreseeable future. In subsequent years, the pace slowed down a bit, but data density has doubled approximately every 18 months, and this is the current definition of Moore's Law, which Moore himself has blessed. Most experts, including Moore himself, expect Moore's Law to hold for at least another two decades.”

At times I wonder if this world is nothing more than some one elses's hobby, I imagined that the omniscient, omnipotent creator of the heavens and earth could be an advanced version of a guy who spends his weekends building model railroads or overseeing video-game worlds like the Sims. But now it seems quite possible. In fact, if you accept a pretty reasonable assumption of Dr. Bostrom’s, it is almost a mathematical certainty that we are living in someone else’s computer simulation.

This simulation would be similar to the one in “The Matrix,” in which most humans don’t realize that their lives and their world are just illusions created in their brains while their bodies are suspended in vats of liquid. But in Dr. Bostrom’s notion of reality, you wouldn’t even have a body made of flesh. Your brain would exist only as a network of computer circuits.

You couldn’t, as in “The Matrix,” unplug your brain and escape from your vat to see the physical world. You couldn’t see through the illusion except by using the sort of logic employed by Dr. Bostrom, the director of the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford.

Dr. Bostrom assumes that technological advances could produce a computer with more processing power than all the brains in the world, and that advanced humans, or “posthumans,” could run “ancestor simulations” of their evolutionary history by creating virtual worlds inhabited by virtual people with fully developed virtual nervous systems.

Japanese Government Pays 60 Trillion Yen to Stop More H.A.A.R.P. Attacks

The cowardly Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan handed 60 trillion yen over to the Federal Reserve Board crime syndicate immediately after his country was attacked with HAARP and nuclear terror, according to Japanese security police sources. The extortion money was paid off following threats to use HAARP to cause Mt. Fuji to erupt. For those of you still too brainwashed to believe such a thing is possible, please take a look at the following transcript available on the US Defense Department’s home page:

http://www.defense.gov/Transcripts/T...anscriptID=674

It quotes then Secretary of Defense William Cohen as publicly stating in 1997 that:

“Others are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves.”

The chief suspects in the Earthquake, Tsunami and Nuclear terror attacks against Japan are US Senator J. Rockefeller and the Bush faction of the US corporate and criminal government.

Rockefeller is a power broker behind GE, the company that manufactured the flawed reactors now spewing radiation in Fukushima. In addition, US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell, acting as an envoy for Rockefeller, met with Japanese power broker Ichiro Ozawa on March 9th, two days before the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster hit Japan. During that meeting Campbell promised that if Ozawa cancelled his plans to split the ruling Democratic Party of Japan, Japanese public prosecutors would stop persecuting him, according to Japanese imperial family and Democratic Party sources. Ozawa was also promised control of zeolite deposits in Fukushima Prefecture, the sources said. Zeolite is used to clean up radioactive waste. It is also worth noting that Senator Rockefeller once wrote an introduction to a book by Ozawa.

In another sign this was a deliberate attack, experts at the University of Tokyo and well as in Italy detected HAARP signals focused on Fukushima in the hours before the earthquake and tsunami struck. The same signals have since been detected focused on Mt. Fuji where the ground water is heating up. In addition, over 5 different people have contacted this writer since the earthquake to warn that “Japan was about to sink into the ocean.”

Scientists Successfully Implant Chip That Controls The Brain; Allowing Thoughts, Memory And Behavior To Be Transferred From One Brain To Another

"Scientists working at the University of Southern California, home of the Department of Homeland Security’s National Center for Risk and Economic Analysis of Terrorism Events, have created an artificial memory system that allows thoughts, memories and learned behavior to be transferred from one brain to another."

A team of scientists working in the fields of “neural engineering” and “Biomimetic MicroElectronic Systems” have successfully created a chip that controls the brain and can be used as a storage device for long-term memories. In studies the scientists have been able to record, download and transfer memories into other hosts with the same chip implanted. The advancement in technology brings the world one step closer to a global police state and the reality of absolute mind control. More terrifying is the potential for implementation of what was only a science fiction fantasy – the “Thought Police” – where the government reads people’s memories and thoughts and can then rehabilitate them through torture before they ever even commit a crime based on a statistical computer analysis showing people with certain types of thoughts are likely to commit a certain type of crime in the future.

We already pre-emptively invade nations and torture alleged terrorist suspects with absolutely no due process of law, so the idea of pre-emptively torturing a terrorist suspect beforehand to prevent them from committing an act of terrorism in the future really isn’t that far fetched of an idea. Perhaps a less sensational example would be using the technology as it is depicted the modern day Matrix movies, in which computer programs are uploaded into people’s brains allowing them to instantly learn how to perform a wide variety of tasks. This technology has potential for a wide array of applications. It could even be the breakthrough needed to create the the first long-imagined artificial intelligence network.
 
The world as we know it is incremental being changed into something that's slowly resembling something from a sci-fi movie. We will soon realise that we are sacrificing freedom for safety and eventually we will be trapped within a prison that the world has created for us humans.

Shroud of Turin Fake?

The Shroud of Turin was made by medieval artist Giotto, it was claimed yesterday.

The 14ft length of fabric, said to be the burial cloth of Christ, bears a faint image of a man and appears to be stained by blood.

However carbon-dating tests have suggested it was produced between 1260 and 1390.
Now Italian art expert Luciano Buso has suggested that the original cloth deteriorated and Giotto was asked to make a copy.

After months of careful examination of photographs of the Shroud - the relic is kept locked away and not available to be viewed unless on special occasions - Luciano Buso has come up with an idea worthy of a Da Vinci Code thriller.

He says that several veiled appearances of the number 15, hidden in the fabric by the artist, indicate Giotto created the Shroud in 1315 - and that it is a copy of the original which had been damaged and was then lost over the centuries.

Giotto was perhaps the best known artist of his time and was made famous for his decoration of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, the fresco that depicts the life of the Virgin Mary and Christ.

Mr Buso insists that 700 years ago it was common practice for artists to insert partial dates into their works so as to guarantee their authenticity and it was known only to a handful of people so as to avoid forgeries.

His claims, which form part of a new book he has written, would coincide with 1980's carbon dating - which has been dismissed by the Church - and which puts the Shroud's origins in the early 14th century.

'He wasn't trying to fake anything, which is clear from the fact that he signed it ''Giotto 15'', to authenticate it as his own work from 1315. This was not a fake he was asked to make a copy of the original one.

'This original one was probably so deteriorated the Church asked one of the greatest artists at the time, Giotto, to make a copy and then the original was lost. What we have now is a copy of that one.

'For obvious reasons it was not widely publicised that it was a copy as that would have had repercussions for the Church - who I understand have been dismissive of my theory but I am confident that I am correct.'

No-one at Turin Cathedral where the Shroud is kept was available for comment but Professor Bruno Barberis, director of the Shroud Museum, said: 'I think the theory is ridiculous.

'His claim that Giotto made the Shroud are not very convincing to me and as far as we are concerned it was not made by an artistic method. Many people claim to have seen Greek and Hebrew writing in the Shroud but it's never been proven.

'We believe that the image on the Shroud was made by the body of a man who was tortured and then crucified - however there are still many tests that need to be carried out to prove one way or another what it's origins are.'

A shepherd claims her ‘psychic sheep’ saved her life by detecting that she had breast cancer.

Alfie, a five-year-old sheep is being hailed a hero by some in the UK and now has a following of hundreds of friends on Facebook.

Emma Turner was giving Alfie some medicine when he suddenly became aggressive and began head-butting her violently in the chest.

“Alfie is normally really well behaved but that particular day he went nuts and it took three of us to hold him down,” she says, according to Metro.

The incident left significant bruising on Turner's chest and it was only then that she noticed a lump in the middle of the bruise.

Alarmed, she went to her local hospital to have the lump checked.

Results from a biopsy confirmed that Ms Turner was suffering from the early stages of breast cancer.

Hospital staff told Turner that if Alfie had not head butted her when he had, the cancer would not have been detected until much later, by which time it would have spread.

Having undergone six months of chemotherapy, Turner now has to have a mastectomy but the upbeat farmer credits Alfie for saving her life.

"Those who say sheep are stupid usually don't know anything about sheep,” she says.

“Alfie is clever - he saved my life.”

How Society Has Emasculated Men

The unintended consequences of feminism has changed the way men view themselves in relation to women. Men are now more feminine, weak and emotional than they were decades ago. Most blame this on the overcompensation of feminism that shuns males in society from being independent, dominant and assertive in their thinking. Men aren’t really appreciated for being men anymore. Women seem to want just a male version of themselves. Men are not wanted at all (except for the genetic donation, thank you very much!). We are breeding masculinity out of society, but what is even worse is the harm that the current ideology is having on the school-system. More and more schools are clamping down on irrepressible boyish behaviour, forcing them to act like girls. What they consider to be unruliness is simply normal boyish conduct. This problem is further exacerbated by a lack of male teachers, who have been resigning in droves.Why? Part of the reason is that male teachers suffer numerous innuendoes, malicious gossip, public libel, and even civil action, if they are seen hugging, or touching, a child. A man can no longer give fatherly love and support to a child, without being accused of pedophilia. (This problem also exists in other institutions and organizations, such as the Boy Scouts).The ultimate result from all this is a generation of boys growing up with no father figure in, or outside, the home. Has society paused to consider the effect of fatherlessness on children? Especially on young boys? Has it stopped to consider why the suicide rate is the highest amongst teenage-boys and young men?

Today's Education Is A Mess

Education in today's world is truly a mess. School, college, university, etc, is actually psychologically designed to teach you how to follow orders and get in line - not how to prepare and set you for the real world and how to successful build your career. In my experience, private schools aren't significantly better than public schools. Yes, they might have slightly better scores etc, but the entire system fails because of it's failed principle of standardization. Not everyone is the same, like those in control would like us to believe. The true world powers have no interest in giving the people thinking skills, just basic skills to do slave jobs. This is why standardization is everywhere. Every single school in every developed nation that I know of dedicates its resources to making sure students meet standards... rather than cultivating actual thinking and problem solving skills. No doubt, they say they are teaching critical thinking and problem solving skills, but in reality, that is not what takes place in the class room, regurgitation - that's all it is. Students do well by memorizing book facts and rewriting them on exam papers.
