Once upon a time Noah saved humanity from a flood on a similar ship.
if that story is to be believed, the ark would have been larger than an aircraft carrier to hold all those animals and the food to feed them...

to say nothing of the inability to keep the apex predators from eating the other animals...

Pshaw! Ye of little faith. The Spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters still. It always explains everything and anything. The seven of each of the clean kinds would have fed the two of a kind unclean, as well as the 8 crew, or they all hibernated, or...

Brian Cox: Something Terrifying Existed Before The Big Bang



In this captivating episode, renowned physicist Brian Cox explores the mind-boggling concept of what existed before the Big Bang. Was there a universe before ours? Could the laws of physics as we know them have existed in some form? Join Brian as he delves into the mysteries of time, space, and the origins of our universe, challenging everything we think we know about the beginning of reality itself.

From quantum theories to cosmic structures beyond our comprehension, this journey takes us to the very edge of science, where facts and imagination collide.
You are living it!

There IS ONLY the eternal 'NOW'.
What about then?

Now and then go together like ...

Then exists Only Now as a memory, with the bonus of lingering effects caused by affects.

Now and then go together like beans and rice, Mutt and Jeff, Bo and Gus, up and down, beginning and end, first and last … consciousness and form....

The isolated Present is a conceptual leg of the Time Trinity.

The Time Trinity is Past, Present, and Future.

NOW is the Time Trinity … a transcendence that requires the sixth sense to experience.

The sixth sense is the mind sense, which includes cognitive ways.

Imagine we’re explorers around the campfire*, at night …

Dark energy is inferred by effects.
Intelligence in humans is inferred by effects.
Therefore, in humans and the universe both, dark energy balances entropy’s effect.
Therefore, the dark energy of the universe is contained in the mind and effected with the brain’s extensions.

When you think about these words, Philosopher, do you think of why they must be wrong, or do you think of what conditions must exist to make them true, and whether or not these conditions do exist or can exist and if they cannot, why?

That would make you a middle-legger, perhaps a literal hedonist, immune to both resenting and visionary tendencies.
