It Just Makes Too Much Sense To Say "NO!"

This old woman appeared in a TEDtalk video and changed my world. Exactly. Why do you think I dial in these talks frequently. This one brought tears to my eyes. I've never heard about The Aquatic Theory:

The ideas being promoted in this video makes too much sense to me. But, there is another thing. This old woman has written her thoughts down for eight decades, and when she speaks, every word she utters has been chosen over a thousand lifetimes. Who wouldn't listen to that? Her web page must have been designed for her by some detached third party, but I can't imagine her not having the final say so.

In this rather shocking video (to me, shocking to me, the person who is always the last to know, not normal people who are hip, and who are cool, and act like they living by the Golden Rule) she uses a projector to show two picture together one above the other. The top picture is of a young woman diving headlong into some water, and the picture below it is one I've seen hundreds of examples of previously, that of three babies all swimming under water with big grins on their faces.

I grew up believing the standard scientific view, that monkeys became human when they descended from living in the trees to fend for themselves on the prairies and savannah lands. That view is what this old woman is challenging. She, among others, believe that homo sapiens never actually went inland to live in trees. Other species did, just not homo sapiens. Homo sapiens has subcutaneous layers of fat under their skin like animals who live on and in the water have. Land animals don't. We really didn't come from monkeys. That's worth exploring.

First, I don't know what it means if she's is right. It's not really her theory but this guy Hardy's theory. I haven't done much research about it on the net yet. Just the video and browsing her home page. I don't have a clue how long this fascination will last with me.,

It's so hot!. My air/conditioner broke. I got no complaints. It lasted longer than I ever expected it to. I've got a small window unit that I can't get to work right although it's practically brand new. Maybe if I can get it working it will at least take some of the humidity out of the room. The heat is bad, but the humidity is the killer (why am I writing trite shit like that everybody knows?)

I claim gnosis is this. I had a vision in which I experienced being everything I ever made myself into or became by mimicry and imitation from the moments just before I arrived several billion years ago until this present lifetime at the age of thirty. It took me another thirty years to understand what happened thirty years before.

What I understand is that the experiential database that recorded the various forms of life I created by imitating the other pearls who arrived before me and after me is particular to the pearl (black hole) I am calls me. That universal database of those experiences were made one with the subjective experiences of who I'm calling felix now into a larger whole. I.E., that's the two into One deal.

That's it. There is no more to it than that. When I reach for information to deal with a current situation, I'm reaching into a database that's more profound than previously by multiple orders of magnitude, but I manage this cosmic database through the oracles and systems of expertise I'd mastered unknowingly for this very purpose.

Now, point out to me where, in this entire contrived rap, I reached for some graven image to explain or express my deepest sentiments? I hate to tell you this, Bud, but doing that ain't the same as whistling Dixie past the graveyard at night.
