On behalf of all Australians, I would like to apologise for this video produced by one of my fellow Aussies. Though the production standards are excellent, his whole premise is nonsense. He also suffers from a strong anti-Catholic bias which kind of set the stage for his other biases. Nothing of value here.

Don't put words in my mouth. I said fascistic. Trump referred to himself as a fascist yesterday when Mamdani was in his office.

Trump even let Mamdani answer a question about whether the mayor-elect thought the president was a "fascist".

"That's ok, you can just say yes," Trump interjected, giving Mamdani a light tap on the arm and smiling. "It's easier than explaining."

It was likely in jest. But for a US president to be joking about something like that, big oof.

Judge orders White House to restore sign language interpreters at briefings by Trump, Leavitt​

A federal judge has ordered the White House to restore real-time American Sign Language interpretation at all press briefings conducted by President Donald Trump or press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

U.S. District Judge Amir Ali said the Trump White House’s decision to end ASL interpretation illegally excluded deaf Americans from crucial updates from the government on matters of war, the economy and public health. And evidence shows, Ali noted, that closed captioning and transcripts are insufficient alternatives.

Disliking the “image” of ASL interpreters alongside the president is not a basis to defy the Rehabilitation Act’s requirements, Ali said.

Jesus is not a respector of persons. Jesus wouldn't be anymore horrified about Trump than he would be about Biden or tge lgbtq advocates. Jesus knew we are all condemned. And he would welcome anyone, including Trump, Biden or LGBt individuals into his kingdom if they repented and recognized him as Lord.

But he said most wouldnt because they loved the darkness rather than the light. That includes all of the above who don't repent.

pre-attendance package" and "participant handouts," for "Advancing LGBTQ+ Justice and Transgender Advocacy"

Our base and persuadables want to support transgender student athletes, but are extremely susceptible to our opposition’s argument that excluding trans youth is necessary to protect the fairness of women’s sports," the NEA explained.

The literature then goes into deep detail on several steps to more effectively communicate the benefits of biological men playing in girls' sports, including the instruction, "reduce the potency of opposition attacks through race-forward, deep, story-based, and culturally specific public education on who transgender people are."

Name the villains who violate our values, expose their motivation of getting back into or holding onto power, and position them as a barrier to what our families need," the document explains in a section called, "Architecture of a race-class gender narrative."

Piezoelectric effects come from the crystal structure. The effects can't be added or concentrated unless the crystals were aligned and connected electrically. Granite is filled with crystals of random orientation. The piezoelectric effects can't be "concentrated".

Click to expand...

That seems to contradict the idea that granite has a higher piezoelectric effect. So if there is a concentration of granite in the chambers then there will be a higher piezoelectric effect in those chambers by the fact there is a higher concentration of granite in the chambers lol.

Is not that te reason the granite is filled with crystals as opposed to other stones or material. So therefore potentially it can be tapped into under certain conditions. I assume the acoustic resonance tests are to do with certain sound frequencies as one way that may tap into the osiliations and change them.

Hans Blaster said:

Rocks are make of minerals Steve.

Click to expand...

Yes and the rocks in the subterrainian caverns under the pyramids are rich in minerals which cause certain chemical reactions. Discoveries have shown that the rocks contain an abundence of crystals. Once again a location conducive for potential naturally occurring piezoelectric effects. Its no coincidence that the Egyptians chose such a location instead of some barren location with nothing but bedrock.

Hans Blaster said:

Which was a silly thing to say. I'm not even sure who said this or in what context, but there are two possibilities given the long conversation we've had with you.

Click to expand...

The scientist who was heading the research said it and its not a silly thing to say. In your perspnal opinion its a silly thing to say. But not everyone agrees with you.

Hans Blaster said:

1. The modeling of the long EM wave response to the giant pile of limestone blocks as an inspiration to build nano-pyramids. Even if everything you've quoted about Egyptians making a EM focusing device was true (and it almost certainly is not),

Click to expand...

Can you show me the peer reviewed science that shows it "certainly is not". Once again absolute words require absolute science.

Hans Blaster said:

it still wouldn't make the Egyptians "nanotechnologists", but "macrotechnologists". Therefore calling Egyptians "nanotechnologists" is silly.

Click to expand...

Once again your personal unqualified opinion. If the researchers can develop nanotech from the Egyptians knowledge then it is from that knowledge that the nanotech came from. That gave the insight in the first place. Without it the discovery would not have happened. Or at least when it did.

But even if we call the Egyptians Macro techs its still advanced compared to the othodoxy that will have the poor Egyptians slaving away the hard way all day long in the hot sun 24/7 with primitive pounders and tools lol. Just like the stone casting where its made out to just be cement and nothing spcial to see here.

It takes cement making back a good 1,000 years. But it appears the Egyptian cement is far superior and has lasted nearly 5,000 years that it can fool archeologists for being the real stone lol. Marvelling at how tight they got those joins. Proposing they must have spend even more time on rubbing them away to get such precision.

Every effort made to turn every example of advanced knowledge into nothing special so that it aligns with the orthodoxy.

Hans Blaster said:

2. Many composite materials contain small amounts of nanoparticles that have outsized effects on their properties, which is part of what "nanotechnology" is about when done deliberately. (There was a story about a odd glass I saw recently that contained nanoparticles that gave it peculiar properties, but the ancient makers had no idea about them and only knew that a particular set of inputs and procedures could result in it.) If Egyptian materials had "nanoparticles" in them, it was accidental and not knowingly. At best they were "accidental" nanotechnologists, but to call them that is silly.

Click to expand...

Yeah just a bunch of accidental coincidences that keep piling up lol.

I agree I don't think the ancients had any idea of what they were doing from a academic point of view. They were immersed in nature so what they experiences and discovered came from a completely different paradigm of knowledge. Yet it still was messing around with nature, chemistry, physics ect and may have been more advanced than where we are at.

Almost like a back door to what science is trying to work out. Just a different way of knowing in how they got there to understand nature and then create conditions that best utilised that.

That is why I think just about everything they did had a reason connected with nature and reality. Because that is where they were at. They did not have all the accumulated enlightenment. Just themselves experiencing nature and reality directly through copnscious experiences which revealed deeper insights into reality. Not just accidents or coincidents. I don't think your appreciating the ancients ability.

That's a shame.
Why not forget arguing about the shape of the earth - which doesn't save, edify or bless anyone - and tell us about what Jesus has done for you. Or your studies of the Bible. Or any good Christians books you have read recently.
There are forums on here where people discuss Scripture. There are forums for different types of ministry, prayer, gifts of the Spirit and so on.
There are even forums for you to talk about your hobbies, tell clean jokes or just hang out and have a virtual coffee with someone.

Our enemy the flesh is so easily tempted and corrupted that we must continually guard our hearts and minds against not only the world and the devil, but our own vain thoughts and imaginations. And yet, in light of these obvious spiritual realities, your average believer cannot even allow for the possibility that this evil and fallen world in which we live, just may be misrepresenting Gods creation,

Click to expand...

I would say that 100% of Flat Earthers cannot even allow for the possibility that God created the world to be a globe. Nor that the shape of the earth has nothing at all to do with our faith or salvation.
Of course, some Flat Earthers may not believe in God at all. They would not be saved, even though they completely agreed with you about the shape of the earth - which proves my point.

Brother Del said:

I don't believe you were sent by the devil. But I do believe there is nothing the devil likes more than an academic argument that does no good at all, and keeps people away from the cross.
How many pages - on all sections of these forums - have been used in discussing the shape of the earth?
How many times have Flat Earthers said, "well, I don't share your views, but let's celebrate Jesus ad what he is doing in our lives"?

Brother Del said:

I can't speak for anyone else, though I know enough people who share my views to confidently say, we are here because at some point in our lives we realized that this world is an empire of lies, ruled by none other than the father of lies, and that a great deal of what we have been told our entire lives served no other purpose than to distract and deceive us into accepting and believing even more lies which would eventually separate us from any knowledge of Almighty God,

Click to expand...

But the shape of the earth doesn't do that.

I am a Christian.
I believe that God created the universe, as described in Genesis 1.
I also accept what I was told my science teachers, science textbooks, my parents etc etc that the earth is a globe.
I have already said this to another Flat Earther and been told, "you can't do." They, you and any other FE-ers have to accept that I do. I, and possibly, millions of other Christians, worship, pray to, believe in and serve the God who made the earth to be a globe. In his sight, we are just as saved, valued and loved as those of you who believe the earth to be flat.

Satan is corrupting, and has corrupted, Christian values. The teaching of the world is that "you are what you own/have achieved. That the first will be first. That if something feels right, do it." Sex before marriage is now seen as the norm. "Everybody" gets creative with their expenses, takes a "sickie" occasionally and so on. The devil has also promoted the outrageous lie that "little" sins don't matter. And that it doesn't matter if you don't believe; if you do good deeds, that will be enough to "get you into heaven."
All of this is a lie from the evil one - it has nothing whatsoever to do with the shape of the earth.

Brother Del said:

That what you call science, and established facts have already had this effect is beyond dispute.

Click to expand...

There are scientists who are also Christians.
There are people who became Christians, discovered they had an interest in/gift for science and went off to study it further. And there are scientists who became Christians because their work strongly suggested to them that there was a Creator behind it all.

Brother Del said:

And the God given ability to question those things which we can observably see as unsupported by the commonly accepted answers provided by the so called scientific community and generally accepted by the indoctrinated public at large.

And God also gave people the ability to discover, to experiment, to make discoveries and conclude that the earth is a globe.
I suspect that the answer to some of your unanswered, Flat Earth questions is that what you are asking is not possible on a flat earth. That people can't find proof because there isn't any; that such a thing only goes to prove that the earth is, in fact, a globe.
But they won't/can't admit to it.

Proverbs 26:11

The American Immigration Lawyers Association warned that the administration's suggestion that people could more easily apply to reenter the country if they leave on their own is "deceptive." There is no legal process or category under U.S. law that covers those who "self-deport," the group noted.

The message "gives people the impression there are no consequences, such as being barred from returning in the future," the legal group said in a statement. "No one should accept this without first obtaining good legal advice from an immigration attorney or other qualified representative
