This is the rational view of the universe. Accept no less.

Richard Feynman tells it like it is.

"This guy is very intelligent and I really liked hearing his viewpoint.

I could post many of the 100's of comments, but I'll just post the few that jumped out at me.

Here they are:

I love the notion of creation myths being "too provincial." That's a term I have to start using more.

You REALLY should check out that whole interview.

My favorite parts are the one about the flower:

And a science and chess analogy:

Scientists just want to learn more about the world!? They should be at home reading the answers in the "special stories" of the Bible!

Feynman rocks.

Feynman knows where it's at. Just as an additional note, I think that he acknowledges with the whole "...its no use arguing, I can't argue..", and the rest of the phrasing emphasizing his personal perspective, that while we all know that what he's saying is 'right' and how we are 'supposed' to approach things, he very much means this is his own personal approach.

From my reading of Feynman I have always been impressed not just with his emphasis on the limitations of our knowledge and uncertainty as an inherent part of science, but also his emphasis (or disclaimer) that what he says is just from his personal perspective. He seems to realise that that inherent focus on doubt is a part of him (probably influenced by his father tho' to be fair) and that there are others who, no matter what he does or his frustration, just won't agree with him.

Furthermore, reading his books and the biography by Gleick I was attracted to his positive approach of just putting out how he does things, without saying this is how others should do them also, and perhaps hoping this will be the best way to get people thinking, rather than trying to impose his views on others too forcefully or as universal truths. He had a very compelling honesty with regards to his own views and his own limitations, which made one wonder about one's own without feeling like he was trying to convince you of or sell you anything.
He seemed to really know how to engage with others' perspectives and 'lead' them through his own observations. I suppose that unfortunately this won't work in all cases tho'...

Also I would like myself to say that I do believe in creationism and do believe in what the Bible states to be true. I only in fact like that he views science from an open perspective rather than justification for pre-conceived notions.

This is WBCN (The Rock of Boston) in a small measure, enjoy!

HIM - Killing Loneliness

I found this looking for an older song by Him. I never knew the name of the other one and wish I had found it but didn't so I just posted this one anyway...

Major General Albert "Bert" N. Stubblebine III, head of all intelligence says:

Major General Albert "Bert" N. Stubblebine III, head of all intelligence says:

Pentagon NOT hit by a plane
WTC 7 brought down by explosives
Media in America is controlled


A terrible pilot hits pentagon accounting office holding records of missing 3 trillion in oil for money scheme & missing 2.3 trillion in DOD expenses

Pentagon debris a single 3 foot engine Proven not related to 757

FBI took all recordings & refuses to show

The FCC had all records on criminals like Paulson, Geithner, Ruben, Summers & others engaging in that illegal activity. But all the records of those illegal trades were destroyed when WTC 7 was brought down by thermite on 9/11!

911 was a public snuff film used to shock the public and enact the end of the Bill of Rights & invasion of oil bearing countries, & make money for private companies like Halliburton, (stock from 10 to 50 a share)!

By destroying the WTC, they were able to cover up theft of gold bullion & destroy illegal financial transaction records performed just prior to the attacks

Silverstein spends 140 million to make 7 billion almost over night; Silverstein said it was demolished by explosives, (pull it)

It reminds me of CIA man Byrd, the owner of TX School Book Depository, who turned a 2.5 million insider purchase into 26 million dollars thanks to JFK assassination!

Phil Collins - In the air tonight (HD)

For Theresa....

Impossible to plan around your little mental fits.
Impossible to understand your lies and your conflicts.
Impossible to reason with you and your influence.
Impossible to predict you or your past intent.
Impossible to deny you are an asshole.
Impossible to help you when you work so hard at it.
Impossible to trust anything you say.
Impossible to give you any trust in anything.
Impossible to have any faith in you.
Impossible for me to even try to live with you.

Every hour is an hour you stretch or strain.
Every moments an hour if you decide it is.
A minute can be ten or whatever you want.
You lie on everything like you know you do.

Reality is reasoning, we all know that's true.
Reality for you is excuse to blame and that's what you do.
You are by far the most dangerous person in my life.

You would blame me for killing me and I think you might.

Is openness season, can you find it this time?
Or is the liar the reason, have you built a good lie?

Can walk down a narrow be the decided way?
Or do you need the distractions on other pathways?

How has honesty lost you? How far are you off the path?
Find the joint in your knee-bone and turn it back round.

I am your excuse now but don't be for long.
Don't wait for suddenness to find you and find you alone.

One breath is the answer, my retreat from your tide.
One last breath and I escape you then no more fighting for me.
In shallow water you'll stand then, fish or fight or you die...
But stupendous reflex and change might be for your gain.


I'll stop my babble, quit talking to myself.
But I wish you're weaknesses were less and you'd try.....

Panic in Detroit

Cover? I donno, sounds like Bowie to me but they say Eurika Seven, still I think it's Mister David Bowie....

Another Canadian Sweety....



This woman ever comes near me, she has my baby..................... Maybe twice!

A hurricain for my son an then some...

Have at it Son...


And....

Dark paths turn streets around, seems you never find a way.
Narrow paths take you less as far but in the end you find a straight.

Willow roads are wanton but,
sparrows fly among them.

Short change is still short change and no sin will be forgotten.

You are my son and I love you so but no beacon lights the way.
Take a breath now son and express yourself, become the man as you were made...

Love,,,
Dad

Creedence Clearwater Revival

I posted this song because this blog is for my grandsons and I want them to hear it.

It was maybe 1967, I was 6 years old and we left my father and moved to Illinois. I was very scared then and worried about my path in life. We lived on the swampy edge of the Great Lake area and across the swamp was a theme park of sorts (I never saw it), Every Friday and Saturday night they had a fireworks show across the water behind my home.

One night catching firefly's I heard this song and it brought me great comfort beyond what you could imagine because now Illinois was not "just an unknown place" but a place of fascination and now I was proud to be there for the first time...

imconfusedeasily <--- He says....
"Dedicated to Michelle/Jim I don't own the material I just used them and blended clips together. Song belongs to 3 doors down-Be Like that This is not associated with the movies but all the clip...
Dedicated to Michelle/Jim

I don't own the material I just used them and blended clips together.

Pearl Jam, Alive

This song just about shattered me.

My father died when I was 8 years old. My mother died the week this song came out. I went home after we buried her and the words took me down... I should have heard her sooner. She was always saying to me "But I'm still alive", but now she wasn't.

Talk about a wake-up call??? Whew!

I wasted time with a beautiful mother crying over a dead father....
