My pod ep starting at27:10 mins I start discussing the video.

Sources: John MacArthur- not part of originalcontents of John’s Gospel. No comments by any church fathers discussing untilthe 12th century. Vocabulary and writing style are different thanthe rest of John’s Gospel. (Also in ending of Ch. 16 of Mark not appearing inearlier manuscripts talking about resurrection, but originally might end w/othe resurrection before they added this in).11:05 Source: Josh McDowell. He wrote abook series: “Evidence that demands a verdict.” Volume 1, p.267.11:42 Sources: Geissler and Nicks. Christianscholars. How variations are counted (my own quoting and paraphrasing) “Textualvariations.” Ambiguity about inconsistencies in entire NT. They minimize theproblem. “200,000 variations in NT…representing 10,000 places in the NT…” ex. If1 word is misspelled in 3000 in different manuscripts, this is counted as 3000variants. Source: Phillip Schaft compared Gk vs English version of NTfinding 400 of the 150,000 variants caused doubt about the textual meanings.And 50 were of great significance. What are these 50?22:08 Source: Leviticus 20:10; Deuteronomy22:22). Law about adultery. 23.33 Source: Talmud- talks about when tobe put to death. “Bloody court” within 70 year period there was an execution itwas called a bloody court.

https://www.sefaria.org/English_Explanation_of_Mishnah_Makkot.1.10.4?lang=bi&with=all&lang2=en
A sanhedrin that executes once in seven years, is called murderous. Rabbi Eliezer b. Azariah Says: once inseventy years. Rabbi Tarfon and Rabbi Akiva say: “Had we been members of a sanhedrin, no person would ever be put to death. Rabban Shimon ben Gamalielremarked: “They would also multiply murderers in Israel.” This famous piece of mishnah testifies to some of the Rabbis’ deep hesitations with regards to the death penalty. As we have seen throughout tractate Sanhedrin and tractate Makkoth, convicting a person of a capital crime is no easy matter. The person must be warned beforehand and then the crime has to be explicitly witnessed by two valid witnesses. Therefore, the first opinion in our mishnah, concludes that acourt that executes once every seven years is a murderous

Some Recent Interests (idol worship topics, internet, beginning Avodah Zarah)A little about what I have been attempting to study lately. I have been learning off and on, skipping some days. But trying to prioritize learning before entertainment on YouTube or movies. So far the experience has been more fulfilling with studying and writing and reading, compared to zoning out. I have not found the internet to be very interesting or fulfilling lately.
Psychic experience story time (story starts at 41min, mortality, current mindset topics). Late night rambling. I had some experiences lately in my personal life, they possibly help account for some of my recent changes in interests. I have developed a brief interest in some New Age topics. I recruited a couple friends to try and explore some books at psychic shops together with me. It takes me about 41 mins to start the actual story.
Picking and choosing, Hypocrisy, Responsibility, Conviction, and Prejudice (Ego in Religion). Maybe I was a bit too annoyed, passionate and/ or irritable while recording this one guys! Sorry for the tone BUT I hope the ideas don't get turned off because of it. This is one of my favorite topics. People WILL disagree. Every spiritual or religious perspective varies. But why? (Maybe another time we can talk about how biology, life experience, and circumstances can attribute to opinions, convictions, and practices). I am not here to say that I know for certain that some people are wrong while others are correct. But I like to challenge various sides just in case. I DID get one of the Muslim comments I used incorrect and took it out of context, as they were talking about "stay at home dads" and not about "single parent dads" when it comes to spouses, marriage, and/ or raising kids. Let us see if I completely missed the mark on this one.
My Religious Dreams- Clergy Smackdown
This might be a bit intense if a topic and potentially triggering or some if they don’t like to hear about violence. It had reminded me of the Amazon Prime movie “Nickel Boys”
Prayer and Jesus vs Idol Worship vs Blessings. (Why do Christians Pray to Jesus?)
If you would like a lengthy episode, well here it is! Talking mostly about prayer, addressing some details as to why Christians pray to Jesus. Idol worship in Paganism, God glorified in Jesus, Jesus glorified in God, Holy Spirit in humans who keep commandments.
Baha'i Faith materials (I got a free packet in the mail). Early experiences with Baha'i Faith literature.
Why Do People Debate Scripture in a One-Sided Manner? We talk about how people like to debate the side they prefer BUT they tend to avoid listening to opposite view points EVEN WHEN PEOPLE ARE READING FROM THE SAME RELIGIOUS SCRIPTURES! We did not get into discussing how or why people do this? But examples of why people do this. For example: In Christianity, it is very common that most denominations do not follow the Jewish Laws. Those who do follow the 10 Commandments, including observance of the Jewish Sabbath times, will often avoid the verses that state the Commandments do not need to be followed. Those who keep some dietary laws (such as the laws about avoiding unclean meats) may follow those laws, may also keep the Commandments, but they then avoid all of the other religious laws. Such as keeping the Jewish Holy Day holidays. They might observe Sabbath, and not keep those other days holy. There appears to often be discrepancies and picking and choosing. This is one reason why I liked the Messianic Jewish Congregations. They tend to at least try and follow all the Jewish laws and the Commandments. But Jews also do not follow all of the Commandments. For example, the Commandments about sacrificing animals, it is not common for modern Jews to do this. I believe (maybe) it has something to do with the temple not being available, and the Most Holy Place not being available (don't quote me on any of this, but I was told Al Aqsa Mosque is on top of the area where the Most Holy Place should be and where the temple would need to be, and therefore they don't do ritual sacrifices anymore, because there are laws around how to properly perform the rituals and they are unable to do this in the correct location).
My Religious Dreams- A 2-for-1 (1. The Sales 2. The Coptic Baseball)
People appear to enjoy when I post about dreams. Here I posted 2 in 1.
The first is from August 8/9, 2025. About sales tasks and some random religion unknown to me.
The second is from near July 21, 2025. About my friend playing baseball or cricket in a Coptic Church lobby.

We discuss religious themes in this comic book free sample.

17:28 English intro (not to be uncomfortable about the language barrier, the primary importance is that they came together)
25:49 second speaker (after the bad satellite connection) nase koidim Lnishma- in total trust to kodosh barchu. For some, realities require use of internet, asking leaders about protection. Spiritual suffering, pain, health. We must introspect.
33:15 third speaker.
37:08 purpose of asifa- guidance needs to be in place
1:23:45 when enemy threw arrows at Moses it became straw and when he thew earth it became arrows. 20k Jews gathered equals the strength of moses.

Adventism and Internet, article about the 90s (Adventist World Included)
Article from adventist World Included. Talking about an article written by nadadventist.org
https://nadadventist.org
Are People Secretly More Hateful Lately? (KNOW propaganda online). They want us sick and stressed and filled with hatred. When was the last time lived hatred because of politics? (Unkind speech, gossip, anger and yelling and name calling towards others, spreading lies or white lies, sitting in judgement).
Sacrifice and Blood (some of Parshah Acharei Kedoshim) note, the Chabad.org English translations add traditional interpretations. But as for the Hebrew, it remains
Accurate to the text. And the Adventist quarterly also adds in their own interpretations of Bible passages to fit in with traditional Christian thought. Be very careful. In the texts read here, some is Bible, and some is interpreted. And the interpretations appear to be contradictory.
The Bible and Discrepancies (how to approach them, what to do with them, what do they mean?) Begins after about 10 minutes of intro on a separate ramble.

Ginza Rabba (Mandaean scripture, English translation)
Creepy Story (asking more questions)
(are dreams related? How did I shake off the entity? How did I perceive it? Is it possible to listen to content that opens gateways to other beings? What was the being? Was it good or evil? What did it want with me? And why are things going on while I sleep?). The next episode I’ll explore these things. I’ll look at basic relevant scripture from Bible references (I probably won’t read it all but I’ll give the verses). And I’ll compare my past understandings through Christian upbringing, and try and compare to some of the stuff Lincoln talks about.
My Creepy Real “Ghost” Story (Spiritual Content Summon Bad Spirits?)
But the main interest are these vids by Lincoln of Channel Higher Self on yt. Who is he channeling? Is it really his higher self? And even though I received a conscious mental alert to take caution consuming his content, I still had a weird experience after consuming just some of his content. Was there some form of opened gateway that let something try to access me? And questions for next time (are dreams related? How did I shake off the entity? How did I perceive it? Is it possible to listen to content that opens gateways to other beings? What was the being? Was it good or evil? What did it want with me? And why are things going on while I sleep?). The next episode I’ll explore these things. I’ll look at basic relevant scripture from Bible references (I probably won’t read it all but I’ll give the verses). And I’ll compare my past understandings through Christian upbringing, and try and compare to some of the stuff Lincoln talks about.

Remote Work Options? (Can you make remote work options for yourself? My experiences with e-commerce) I’ve studied sales, social media management, digital marketing and digital advertising in recent years. And as a portfolio (since I had a hard time finding internships or experience) I basically created my own E-commerce and online remote service sales. What started out as a project became extra income. It’s possible to make about $100 per week conservatively working remotely by yourself, while you work elsewhere or continue applying. You can make even more! But I would say conservatively $100 is very doable. That’s decent profit. Here is my other pod with some more educational tips and ideas: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/game-and-compute/id1540830049 NONE OF THIS IS GET RICH QUICK! Mostly you just have to slowly try and then scale once you find something that works.

It does not say pray Fajr, Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha salah.Nowhere in the Quran does it say this explicitly.The disagreement between the two sides of 3 prayers or 5 are due to different interpretation of the ayats presented above.From Surah Nur it says “before the dawn prayer and when you put aside your clothing [for rest] at noon and after the night prayer.” Some Shiites would read this and interpret 3 daily prayers. But the Sunni’s would argue no, that’s not what the ayah is referring to as it is just referring to three distinct time periods.Dawn – Fajr Noon – Zuhr and Asr Night – Maghrib and Isha.”

PART 2 (SEE PART 1 FOR OTHER NOTES AS THE LIMIT IS 4000 WORD COUNT).Council of Ephesus 431 AD https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_Ephesus.Nestorianism- related to the original teachings of Christian theologian Nestorius (d. c. 450 AD), who promoted specific doctrines in the fields of Christology and Mariology. The second meaning of the term is much wider, and relates to a set of later theological teachings, that were traditionally labeled as Nestorian, but differ from the teachings of Nestorius in origin, scope and terminology.[2] The Oxford English Dictionary defines Nestorianism as "The doctrine of Nestorius, patriarch of Constantinople (appointed in 428), by which Christ is asserted to have had distinct human and divine persons." Theotokos- The title of Mother of God (Greek: Μήτηρ (τοῦ) Θεοῦ) or Mother of Incarnate God. Pelagianis - the original sin did not taint human nature and that humans by divine grace have free will to achieve human perfection.Council of Chalcedon 451 AD https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_Chalcedon. (Not all churches accepted this council).The judgments issued at the Second Council of Ephesus in 449, the alleged offences of Bishop Dioscorus of Alexandria, the relationship between the divinity and humanity of Christ, many disputes involving particular bishops and seesSecond Council of Constantinople 553 AD https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Council_of_Constantinople. Nestorianism- (see above definitions). Monophysitism- Greek μόνος monos, "solitary"[2] and φύσις physis, "nature") is a Christology that states that in the person of the incarnated Word (that is, in Jesus Christ) there was only one nature—the divine. Origenis- Origenist crises or Origenist controversies. [THIS IS CONFUSING AND IM NOT YET SURE IF I FULLY UNDERSTAND IT]. Origen was considered heretical and to have influenced many. Origen taught that, before the creation of the material universe, God had created the souls of all the intelligent beings. These souls, at first fully devoted to God, fell away from him and were given physical bodies. Origen was the first to propose the ransom theory of atonement in its fully developed form, and he also significantly contributed to the development of the concept of the Trinity. Origen hoped that all people might eventually attain salvation, but was always careful to maintain that this was only speculation. He defended free will and advocated Christian pacifism.ALSO SEE EPISODE ON YT BY SENSUS AND FIDELIUM:https://youtu.be/jFGzRbfGVj8?si=uWaNydJ-HiJ1dE4OThird Council of Constantinople 680-681 AD https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Council_of_Constantinople. Monothelitism, the human and divine wills of Jesus. Monothelitism- Christ as having only one will. The doctrine is thus contrary to dyothelitism, a Christological doctrine that holds Christ as having two wills (divine and human).SECOND Council of Nicea in 787 AD https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_seven_ecumenical_councils. Iconoclasm- Byzantine Iconoclasm was started by a ban on religious images promulgated by the Byzantine Emperor Leo III the Isaurian,[3] and continued under his successors.[4] It was accompanied by widespread destruction of religious images and persecution of supporters of the veneration of images. The Papacy remained firmly in support of the use of religious images throughout the period.

Apollinarism- argues that Jesus had a human body and sensitive human soul, but a divine mind and not a human rational mind, the Divine Logos taking the place of the latter.[1] It was deemed heretical in 381 and virtually died out within the following decades.Sanellianism- belief that there is only one Person ('hypostasis' in the Greek language of the fourth century Arian Controversy) in the Godhead.Holy Spirit- In Nicene Christianity, the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity.

Is Christianity a Gnostic Religion? (Diving into a discussion posted by Rabbi Tovia Singer and Wil’liam of Tenak Talk). STUDYIs Christianity a Gnostic religion?- needing secret knowledge (in order to escape the “broken world made by a broken God”)? And is Christianity not a sect of Judaism? This topic was opened by Wil’liam Hall’s show “Tenak Talk” TaNaChTalk.com & Rabbi Tovia Singer of OutreachJudaism.org.Check out this link: https://youtu.be/4PhziL46Mo8?si=3pawIcQJBDl_yC0JRabbi Tovia Singer stated that Christianity is not a sect of Judaism but is instead a religion of Gnosticism. He also stated that Christianity does not properly address prophetic texts of Isaiah 53 and Jeremiah 31:33 (31:34) because Judaism sees the Messiah differently. Mark 4- parable of the sower. Question- why does the sower of the word seem to just sow the seeds anywhere? Mark 4:10-20- Jesus provides parables to non-disciples but they will “not perceive; not understand”). Thought- It is interesting that Satan is as a bird taking seed off a path, because in theory that seed that is eaten will get processed and pooped out elsewhere and still eventually grow and potentially yield somewhere random. Profit seems to be key, yet the sower is not specifically sowing where there will be ideal growing, he is sowing in all types of places. Question- is the sower of the word giving potential opportunity? References: Isaiah 6:9-10 (what Jesus paraphrased in Mark).
Jesus vs. the Chabad Rebbe: The Messiah? (Notes based on a discussion by Chabad Rabbi Dovid Vigler). JESUS AFTER TEMPTATION, HE BEGINS HIS MINISTRY.Matthew talks of Isaiah 9:1 fulfillment. Mark talks generally of fulfillment. Luke talks Luke 3:23- lineage of Joseph to David, Judah, & Isaac. (Bloodline?). John goes straight to disciple choices.Chabad tunnel at 770 & Messiah by Rabbi Dovid Vigler (the discussion about Jesus vs Chabad Rebbe). Link: https://www.youtube.com/live/2At2bus2uQU?si=nrXj4zDgp5wsOfK3 (Time stamp 15:40 about Mashiach- Messiah). 16:04: “Can the Rebbe be Mashiach?”- someone mentions Jesus and the lineage of David, another person mentions Brazilians being of the line of David, then the conversation gets reeled in to focus on the initial question to return to an intellectual conversation.17:55: “Maimonides [Rambam] gives us a list of what it takes to qualify to be the Mashiach”- they review the list. Reference can be found in “Mishneh Torah » Hilkhot Melakhim Umilchamoteihem” (Link- see chapters 11&12 of contents: https://www.sefaria.org/Mishneh_Torah,_Kings_and_Wars?tab=contents) Composed in: c.1176 – c.1178 CE/ ADCh. 11- https://www.sefaria.org/Mishneh_Torah%2C_Kings_and_Wars.11.1?lang=biNeeds to be from the House of David- Christian New Testament Luke 3:23 states Joseph’s lineage was from the House of David, but the Jewish argument is that if Jesus was born of God he is not of Joseph’s or David’s lineage. ~22:10: No matrilineal approach to tribal affiliations in Jewish tradition. And according to Jewish thought, Jesus did not observe Torah which the Messiah must do.~22:47: discussion for considering 770 Chabad Rebbe as Messiah.~23:00: descendant of king David, occupies self in Torah mitzvot, “prevail upon all of Israel to walk in the ways of Torah and strengthen its breaches,” and will fight the battles of God- the rabbi states nearly 40% of American Jews have Chabad affiliations. ~26:25: discussion that the Rebbe died. Based on a different rabbi’s book (Middle Ages Prussian Rabbi Yehonatan IvaSchitz) book “Forests of Honey”- he states in his book they were not truthful to Christians to “push them off with straw” when they asked why Jesus could not be the Messiah; Jews then would respond that because Jesus had died, he could not be the Messiah. Although there were a Christian’s who believed this response, according to Talmud- in tractate Sanhedrin 98a. According to rabbi video speaker there is to be one potentially qualified person of the lineage of David per generation (either living or dead can qualify). ~32:26: Ch. 12- https://www.sefaria.org/Mishneh_Torah%2C_Kings_and_Wars.12.1?lang=bi “Do not presume that in the Messianic age any facet of the world's nature will change or there will be innovations in the work of creation. Rather, the world will continue according to its pattern.” (Chapter 12 from the Chabad site: https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/1188357/jewish/Melachim-uMilchamot-Chapter-12.htm). MY QUESTIONS: Why is Rambam/ Maimonides considered the most important reference? Can his view be skewed as he wrote after the time of Jesus. Are there other views from before the time of Jesus that might not directly reference some of Jesus’ qualities (such as the miracles and resurrecting the dead, etc). But just because Jesus did do these things, I don’t believe this should disqualify him as it is only additional detail. Couldn’t Jesus still be of David’s lineage? A) God could have made it so and could have created Jesus’ DNA as such.Who stated that there is no matrilineal approach when considering tribal affiliation to the lineage of David? Where was this said? And in what year/ time period of history?If there were lies provided as responses (based on historical tribunals) could there be other traditional lies in the later interpretations of Messiah’s qualifications (such as by the Rambam)?

Positivity and Solutions. In today’s age we are constantly bombarded with negativity and so many things trying to get our attention. Do you focus on how you energy is impacted before, during and after engagement with certain content? What about with certain people? Or certain situations? The good thing about having routines throughout the week is we can notice patterns and try and come up with helpful solutions. Try not to sit in worry, and a sense of impending doom and negativity. Try and open a time and space to process. And a time and space to map out solutions to see if there are methods of actually obtaining ideal results. Instead of letting the negativity overtake the energy for the day.

The history of Hebrew slavery in Egypt is a topic that has been debated for centuries. While there is no direct archaeological evidence of the specific events described in the biblical account of Moses and the Israelites, there is ample evidence of the existence of Hebrew slaves in ancient Egypt. In this essay, we will explore the various types of evidence that support the idea of Hebrew slaves in Egypt.The earliest evidence of Hebrew slavery in Egypt comes from the Merneptah Stele, a victory monument erected by Pharaoh Merneptah around 1208 BCE. The stele describes the Pharaoh's military campaign against the Libyans and the defeat of the Canaanites, among other enemies. In the stele, Merneptah refers to the Israelites as a people who were already living in the land of Canaan at the time of the campaign, indicating that they had likely been enslaved in Egypt and then later escaped.Another piece of evidence for Hebrew slavery in Egypt comes from a document known as the Brooklyn Papyrus. This papyrus, which dates to the early 19th dynasty of Egypt (around 1292-1190 BCE), is a copy of a letter written by an Egyptian official named Wah to his superior, Hekanakht.

Scholars Dr. Titus Kennedy and Bart Ehrman pose debates using evidence of Israelites slavery in Egypt, the exodus and wandering of the people in the desert for 40 years. Kennedy (proof for) https://youtu.be/d_3Plj2e7FY versus Ehrman (against) https://youtu.be/1h0Gf61xWLk Dr. Titus Kennedy is an archaeologist and historian who has put forth a theory regarding the presence of Hebrew slaves in ancient Egypt. In this essay, we will examine Dr. Kennedy's theory in detail, including the historical and archaeological evidence that supports it.BackgroundThe story of the Hebrew slaves in Egypt is one of the most well-known narratives in the Bible. According to the book of Exodus, the Hebrews were enslaved in Egypt for over 400 years until Moses, under the guidance of God, led them to freedom. However, the historical veracity of this story has long been a matter of debate among scholars.Some historians have argued that there is no evidence of Hebrew slaves in Egypt during the time period described in the Bible. They point to the fact that there are no inscriptions or other written records that mention the Hebrews in Egypt, and that there is no archaeological evidence of a large group of slaves living and working in the country.However, Dr. Titus Kennedy has put forth a different theory. According to Kennedy, the Hebrews were not slaves in the traditional sense of the word. Instead, they were a group of people who lived and worked in Egypt as part of a larger community of Semitic-speaking peoples. Dr. Kennedy's theory is based on a careful examination of the available historical and archaeological evidence. According to Kennedy, the Hebrews were part of a larger group of Semitic-speaking peoples who migrated to Egypt during the Middle Kingdom period (circa 2000-1700 BCE).These people were known as the Hyksos, and they are often identified with the "Asiatics" who are mentioned in Egyptian inscriptions from this time period. According to Kennedy, the Hyksos were not a unified group, but rather a collection of smaller tribes who shared a common language and cultural identity.Kennedy argues that the Hebrews were one of these tribes. They migrated to Egypt along with other Semitic-speaking peoples, and they settled in the eastern Nile Delta region. Here, they lived and worked alongside other groups of foreigners who had also migrated to Egypt, including Canaanites and other Semitic-speaking peoples.According to Kennedy, the Hebrews were not slaves in the traditional sense of the word. They were not owned by individual masters, and they were not forced to work against their will. Instead, they were part of a larger community of foreigners who were allowed to live and work in Egypt as long as they paid taxes and provided labor for the government.Kennedy suggests that the Hebrews may have been involved in a variety of different occupations, including farming, construction, and other forms of manual labor. They would have been paid for their work, but they would also have been required to provide a certain amount of labor to the government each year.This system of labor was known as corvée labor, and it was common in ancient Egypt. Under this system, the government would require a certain number of laborers to work on various projects, such as building temples or clearing irrigation canals. These laborers would be provided with food and shelter, but they would not be paid for their work.Kennedy argues that the Hebrews were part of this system of corvée labor. They would have been required to provide a certain amount of labor to the government each year, but they would also have been free to work in other occupations and to earn a living in other ways.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The Blue Meanie is a strain of psilocybin mushrooms known for its blue coloring and high potency. This strain gets its name from the blue bruising that occurs on the mushrooms when they are handled or damaged, which is due to the oxidation of psilocin. The Blue Meanie is known to have a high potency and a long-lasting trip, with effects that can last up to six hours. The Blue Meanie is popular among experienced users due to its potency and long-lasting effects, but it is not recommended for beginners or those with a low tolerance for psychedelics.The Blue Meanie strain is native to Australia and is a subspecies of the Psilocybe cubensis mushroom. This strain is grown and cultivated both commercially and by hobbyists, and is available for purchase in many countries around the world. The Blue Meanie is often used for recreational purposes, but it is also used for spiritual and therapeutic purposes by some individuals.When consumed, the Blue Meanie can produce a range of effects, including visual and auditory hallucinations, changes in perception, heightened senses, and changes in thought processes. Some users report feeling more connected to nature and having a greater appreciation for life after using the Blue Meanie, while others report feeling more introspective and introverted. Like all psychedelics, the effects of the Blue Meanie can vary greatly from person to person, and are dependent on factors such as dose, set and setting, and individual factors such as mood, personality, and past experiences.In conclusion, the Blue Meanie is a high potency strain of psilocybin mushrooms that is popular among experienced users due to its long-lasting effects. This strain should be used with caution, especially by beginners or those with a low tolerance for psychedelics, as it can produce strong and intense experiences. If you are interested in using the Blue Meanie, it is important to educate yourself about the risks and benefits, and to be aware of the laws and regulations regarding the use of psychedelics in your area.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Regarding this homunculus episode I’m referring to the following YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/HNLPXzlz6-I Generally when talking about a homunculus the following is actual information of how it’s used (not the same as the sperm injected into the chicken egg hoax videos). The homunculus is a concept in neuroscience that refers to a tiny, hypothetical human figure that is said to exist within the brain, representing the body’s sensory and motor functions. This idea has been around for centuries and has been widely debated by philosophers, scientists, and physicians alike. In recent years, the homunculus has gained a new level of popularity on YouTube, where many creators have explored the concept and its various interpretations.One of the most popular homunculus videos on YouTube is a lecture by neuroscientist Dr. V.S. Ramachandran, in which he explains the concept of the homunculus and its role in the functioning of the brain. In his lecture, Dr. Ramachandran explains that the homunculus represents the way the brain maps the body and its various sensations. The homunculus is typically depicted as a tiny figure with an oversized head and hands, representing the importance of the brain and nervous system in the body’s ability to sense and respond to the world around it.Another popular homunculus video on YouTube is an animated explanation of the concept. This video uses colorful graphics and simple language to help viewers understand the idea of the homunculus and how it relates to the functioning of the brain. The video also explores the history of the homunculus, tracing its origins back to ancient Greece and its evolution over the centuries.There are also many homunculus-themed videos on YouTube that explore the concept in a more creative or imaginative way. For example, some creators have used animation or stop-motion techniques to bring the homunculus to life, allowing viewers to see the tiny figure in action. Other videos use humor or satire to explore the concept, poking fun at the idea of a tiny human figure living inside our brains.Some YouTubers have even used the homunculus as a jumping-off point for exploring other concepts in neuroscience, such as the functioning of the nervous system and the way that the brain processes information. For example, some creators have used the homunculus to explain how different parts of the body are represented in the brain and how these different representations are connected to the way that we perceive the world.One of the most unique homunculus videos on YouTube is a parody of the popular animated TV show “Rick and Morty”. In this video, Rick and Morty travel to the homunculus to learn about the workings of the brain, but end up getting lost in the maze of neurons and synapses that make up the nervous system. This video is a clever and humorous take on the concept of the homunculus, using the familiar characters of Rick and Morty to help viewers understand the complex world of neuroscience.In conclusion, the homunculus is a fascinating concept that has captivated the attention of scientists, philosophers, and the general public for centuries. On YouTube, the concept has taken on a new level of popularity, with creators exploring the homunculus in creative and imaginative ways. Whether through educational videos, animated explanations, or comedic parodies, the homunculus remains an important and intriguing subject for those interested in the workings of the human brain.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Check out this video based on the Chris Massey theory about the Egyptian Pyramids: https://youtu.be/C1y8N0ePuF8 The theory of the Egyptian pyramids being built by the use of water causeways is a relatively new idea that has gained popularity in recent years. According to this theory, the ancient Egyptians used a system of waterways and locks to transport the massive stone blocks that make up the pyramids from the quarry to the construction site.Proponents of this theory point to several factors that they believe support their argument. One of the main pieces of evidence they cite is the existence of the Nile River, which runs through the heart of Egypt and was a vital source of water and transportation for the ancient Egyptians. They also point to the fact that many of the pyramids are located near the Nile, suggesting that the river played a role in their construction.Another piece of evidence often cited in support of this theory is the presence of large, flat-bottomed boats that were discovered at the pyramids of Giza. These boats, which are believed to have been used for religious ceremonies, may also have been used to transport the heavy stone blocks from the quarry to the construction site.In addition to these physical pieces of evidence, proponents of the water causeways theory also point to the lack of evidence for other methods of transportation. For example, there is no evidence of ramps or sledges that would have been used to transport the stone blocks, leading some to believe that the ancient Egyptians used a system of waterways instead.To support this theory, some researchers have even created computer models to show how the water causeways would have worked in practice. These models suggest that the ancient Egyptians would have used a series of locks and dams to control the flow of water and create a canal-like system that would have allowed them to transport the heavy stone blocks from the quarry to the construction site.Despite the growing popularity of the water causeways theory, there are also several arguments against it. One of the main criticisms of this theory is the lack of concrete evidence to support it. For example, there is no evidence of the locks or dams that would have been necessary to create a waterway system capable of transporting the stone blocks, and there are no records or depictions of such a system in ancient Egyptian texts or art.Additionally, many experts argue that the idea of using water causeways is simply not practical. They point out that the ancient Egyptians would have had to dig massive canals and build elaborate locks and dams in order to create a waterway system that could handle the weight of the stone blocks. They also argue that this would have been a massive undertaking, requiring a large amount of time and resources that simply may not have been available to the ancient Egyptians.In conclusion, the theory of the Egyptian pyramids being built by the use of water causeways is an intriguing idea that has gained popularity in recent years. While there are several pieces of evidence that support this theory, there are also several arguments against it, and the exact method used to construct the pyramids remains a subject of ongoing debate among historians and archaeologists. Until more concrete evidence is discovered, the true methods used by the ancient Egyptians to build these magnificent structures may never be fully understood.

Göbekli Tepe is an archaeological site located in southeastern Turkey, near the city of Şanlıurfa. It is considered one of the world's most significant archaeological discoveries and has changed the way scholars view the development of human civilization.The site was first discovered in the 1960s, but it wasn't until the 1990s that excavations began to uncover its true significance. Göbekli Tepe dates back to the Pre-Pottery Neolithic period, around 11,000 years ago. This makes it one of the oldest and most well-preserved examples of monumental architecture.The site is comprised of several circular enclosures, each containing large T-shaped pillars that are carved with intricate symbols and images. The pillars range in height from three to six meters, and they are thought to have served as architectural supports for a roof or canopy.One of the most fascinating aspects of Göbekli Tepe is the level of craftsmanship and artistic skill evident in the carvings on the pillars. The symbols and images depict various animals, including snakes, lions, bulls, and foxes, as well as abstract shapes and geometric designs. The intricate carvings suggest a high level of cultural and technical sophistication, and they have led archaeologists to question the traditional view of human civilization as a slow and gradual process.The purpose of Göbekli Tepe remains a mystery, but there are several theories as to what it might have been used for. Some scholars believe that it was a religious or ritual center, perhaps used for ceremonies and offerings to the gods. Others think it may have served as a meeting place for communities, or as a hub for trade and commerce.Regardless of its purpose, Göbekli Tepe is considered a major turning point in human history. It represents a shift from a hunter-gatherer society to one that was capable of large-scale construction and the creation of complex, permanent structures. This has significant implications for our understanding of human evolution and the development of civilization.The site has also had an impact on our understanding of the relationships between humans and the natural world. The pillars at Göbekli Tepe are adorned with images of animals, and this has led some scholars to speculate that the site was part of a larger system of beliefs and practices that centered on the worship of animals and the natural world.Today, Göbekli Tepe is a popular tourist destination, and it has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is considered one of the most important archaeological sites in the world and continues to shed light on the earliest stages of human civilization.In conclusion, Göbekli Tepe is a unique and fascinating archaeological site that has changed our understanding of human history and evolution. The intricate carvings and massive pillars offer a glimpse into a world that was sophisticated and complex, and they challenge the conventional wisdom about the development of civilization. It is a site that is well worth visiting, and one that will continue to be studied and admired for generations to come.

Are there any motives to maintaining older theories that there were not expected to be humans in California and other North American areas 130,000 years ago? Why are there motives behind which races and ethnicities existed when and where? Check out Graham Hancock’s talk with Joe Rohan which is where I initially heard about the California Mastodon: https://youtu.be/Rxmw9eizOAo Check out The NY Times 2017 article about the Mastodon in CA: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/26/science/prehistoric-humans-north-america-california-nature-study.html Graham Hancock is a British author and journalist who is known for his books and lectures about ancient civilizations and the possibility of advanced cultures existing in the distant past. He has written several books, including "Fingerprints of the Gods" and "The Sphinx Mystery," which explore the idea that an advanced civilization existed before recorded history and that this civilization may have left evidence of their existence in the form of megaliths and other structures found around the world.One of the pieces of evidence that has captured the attention of Hancock and other researchers is the discovery of a 130,000-year-old mastodon in California. The mastodon, a prehistoric relative of the elephant, was discovered in the 1990s in the San Diego area and is considered to be one of the oldest mastodons ever found in North America. The discovery of the mastodon was significant because it suggested that humans, or some other form of intelligent species, were present in North America long before previously believed.The mastodon was found in association with stone tools, which led some researchers to believe that it was hunted by early humans. However, the age of the mastodon and the fact that it predates the known arrival of humans in the Americas by more than 100,000 years has led some researchers to question this conclusion. Alternative explanations have been put forward, including the possibility that the stone tools were created by Neanderthals or another form of human species that lived in the Americas before modern humans.Hancock and other researchers have pointed to the discovery of the mastodon as evidence of an advanced civilization that existed before recorded history. They argue that the presence of stone tools associated with the mastodon suggests that the civilization was capable of developing sophisticated technology and that it may have been responsible for other mysterious structures found around the world.Critics of Hancock's theories argue that the discovery of the mastodon and the stone tools can be explained by more conventional means and that there is no evidence of a lost civilization. They also point out that Hancock's theories are not supported by mainstream archaeology and that there is no evidence of a civilization that existed more than 100,000 years ago.In conclusion, the discovery of the 130,000-year-old mastodon in California is a topic of debate among researchers and scholars. While some see it as evidence of an advanced civilization that existed before recorded history, others believe that it can be explained by more conventional means. Regardless of the conclusion, the discovery of the mastodon and the stone tools associated with it remains one of the most intriguing archaeological discoveries in recent history and continues to generate interest and debate among researchers and the general public.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The demonetization of LGBTQ+ content refers to the removal of monetization options, such as ads or sponsorships, for content creators who produce or share content that includes topics or themes related to the LGBTQ+ community. This can have a significant impact on the creators, who may depend on these sources of income to support themselves and their content production.There are a variety of reasons why content related to the LGBTQ+ community may be demonetized. One reason is that some advertisers or sponsors may not want to be associated with certain topics, such as sexually explicit or explicit content. Additionally, some platforms may have policies in place that prohibit the monetization of certain types of content, such as adult content or content that promotes hate speech.Another reason for the demonetization of LGBTQ+ content is the conservative views and biases of the platforms and advertisers. Despite the growing support for LGBTQ+ rights and recognition, many individuals and organizations still hold conservative or discriminatory views toward the community. This can result in a reluctance to support or monetize content that positively portrays LGBTQ+ individuals and themes.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Censorship of Jordan Peterson, a Canadian psychologist and professor, has been a contentious issue in recent years, with some people accusing him of promoting hate speech and others defending his right to free speech.Jordan Peterson rose to prominence in 2016 for his opposition to Canadian legislation, Bill C-16, which aimed to add gender identity and expression to the list of prohibited grounds of discrimination under the Canadian Human Rights Act and Criminal Code. Peterson argued that the bill threatened free speech and required people to use preferred gender pronouns, which he saw as a form of compelled speech. This sparked widespread debate and controversy, and Peterson gained a large following, especially among supporters of free speech and traditional conservative values.Since then, Peterson has been a controversial figure, with some people accusing him of promoting hate speech, sexism, and racism, while others see him as a champion of free speech and intellectual diversity. This has led to instances of censorship, both in the form of social media platform restrictions and the cancellation of speaking engagements and interviews.One example of censorship occurred in 2018, when Peterson's YouTube account was temporarily suspended for violating the platform's hate speech policies. The specific content that led to the suspension remains unclear, but Peterson and his supporters argued that it was an infringement of his right to free speech.Another example of censorship was the cancellation of a speaking event at McMaster University in Canada in 2019. The event was organized by a student group and was intended to feature Peterson in a discussion on freedom of speech. However, the event was cancelled due to concerns about Peterson's views on gender and transgender rights, with some students and faculty members calling for the university to take action against him.In 2019, Peterson was also banned from Twitter for violating the platform's rules against hate speech. The specific tweets that led to the ban remain unclear, but Peterson and his supporters argue that the decision was politically motivated and an infringement of his right to free speech.The censorship of Jordan Peterson highlights the ongoing debate around free speech and the limits of acceptable speech in modern society. While some people argue that hate speech should be censored, others see it as an essential aspect of free speech and intellectual diversity.On one hand, censorship can be seen as a necessary measure to protect marginalized groups from hate speech and discrimination. This is especially important in cases where hate speech can lead to real-world harm, such as violence and discrimination.On the other hand, censorship can also be seen as a threat to free speech and intellectual diversity. When people are censored, it can prevent them from expressing their opinions and ideas, and limit the exchange of ideas and viewpoints. This can also have a chilling effect on free speech, causing people to self-censor or avoid expressing controversial opinions.Ultimately, the censorship of Jordan Peterson is a complex and controversial issue, with valid arguments on both sides. While some people may see him as a promoter of hate speech, others see him as a defender of free speech and intellectual diversity. In any case, it is important to have open and respectful discussions on these issues, to ensure that we can maintain a balance between protecting marginalized groups from harm and promoting free speech and intellectual diversity.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Chofetz Chaim Shvat Cycle Day 4. The Chofetz Chaim, Rabbi Yisrael Meir Kagan (1838-1933), was a prominent Talmudic scholar and leader of Orthodox Judaism in pre-war Poland. He is best known for his work on the laws of forbidden speech, or "Lashon Hara," which he compiled in his eponymous book, the "Chofetz Chaim."Rabbi Kagan was born in the small town of Zhetel, in the Grodno region of what is now Belarus. From a young age, he demonstrated a deep commitment to Torah study, and by the time he was 18, he had already become an accomplished Talmudic scholar. He later moved to the nearby town of Radin, where he spent the majority of his life.The Chofetz Chaim's most famous work, the "Chofetz Chaim," is a comprehensive guide to the laws of Lashon Hara (forbidden speech) and Rechilus (gossip or tale-bearing). The book is widely considered to be one of the most important works on the subject of ethical speech, and is still widely studied today. The book has been translated into many languages and is considered a classic in Jewish literature.In addition to his work on Lashon Hara, the Chofetz Chaim was also a leading authority on other areas of Jewish law and ethics. He wrote several other important works, including "Ahavas Chesed" (Love of Kindness), "Shemiras Halashon" (Guard Your Tongue), "Shemiras Halashon Harambam" (Guard Your Tongue According to the Rambam), and "Shmiras Halashon Yomi" (Guard Your Tongue Daily).The Chofetz Chaim was also a respected leader of the Jewish community in Poland, and he played a key role in the organization of the Agudath Israel movement. He was a strong advocate for Jewish education, and he established a network of yeshivas and other institutions to promote Torah study among Jews in Poland.Throughout his life, the Chofetz Chaim maintained a strict adherence to the principles of Torah and mitzvos, and he was known for his humility, piety, and selflessness. He lived a simple and modest lifestyle, dedicating himself entirely to the study of Torah and the betterment of the Jewish people.The Chofetz Chaim passed away on the 9th of Av, 1933 in Radin. The Chofetz Chaim Heritage Foundation was established in his memory, dedicated to the dissemination of his teachings and legacy. His teachings on the laws of Lashon Hara continue to be studied and followed by Jews all over the world, and his works remain an essential part of the Jewish literary canon.In conclusion, The Chofetz Chaim, Rabbi Yisrael Meir Kagan was a prominent Talmudic scholar and leader of Orthodox Judaism in pre-war Poland. He is best known for his work on the laws of forbidden speech, or "Lashon Hara," which he compiled in his eponymous book, the "Chofetz Chaim."

What do you make of this?? Interesting chain of events for a late night. I was awakened near midnight and read in the portion scheduled for that time period about Moses in Egypt and it happened to be the passage in “Parsha ‘Bo’” when the plague of death to First Born would occur near midnight. So of course that weirded me out since I’m not usually studying at that midnight hour. So I was up, then an earthquake hits at 2pm while I was listening to “Daf Amud Aleph ‘Nazir,’” and this was followed by a 2:02pm aftershock. I went back to the Chofetz Chaim 3rd portion for Shvat and read up to date. Such a weird night. Me and earthquakes tend to have a special relationship.--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

PETER SANTANELLO’S CROW RESERVATION VIDEO https://youtu.be/LON6eGikrKk SHORTHAND NOTES. Residents: “checkered.” non-tribal members on reservation land. Reservation tribal lands can be owned or leased by non-tribal people. A lot of lands were sold at 1800s prices to non-tribal people, and these lands that were being sold had auctions hidden from Crow natives (going against the Native Crow Preference laws). When Crow people try buying the land it is often not as cheap as the 1800s ultra reduced prices. Not allowing Crow to hunt on the leased lands that are traditional hunting areas leased or purchased by non-natives. (W/ businesses there is “unrestricted fee lands”- non- tribal member can do whatever they want to do, there is a difference between non-Crow vs Crow owning the lands and a stricter process for Crow to own unrestricted fee lands). Chairmen signing off land and parts of the mountain and giving away Crow Rights (hunting rights).

PETER SANTANELLO’S CROW RESERVATION VIDEO https://youtu.be/LON6eGikrKk EPISODE SHORTHAND NOTES: Hunting/ food: shot guns, duck hunting, white tail deer. Non- natives hunting on native land. Tribal lands leased (possibly by BIA) to non-tribal members and the lands used to allow non-tribal people to hunt on tribal land. Crow are banned from hunting on some of their traditional lands due to the landowners disallowing them on property (that was sold by BIA or BLM). Historically Buffalo were killed, the “work around” to allow it was due to large machinery needing stronger leather bands, this was “justifying” killing Buffalo. Non-tribal people are recently allowed to hunt on Crow reservation, this causes regulations by an agency for food that is allowed to be acquired by Crow (people can often barely afford food, rent, utilities and were able to supplement by hunting off the land). “Food desert.” Closest grocery store is 12 miles away, the grocery in town burned down a few years prior due to “arson.” (Grocery- IGA in Hardin and IGA in Lodge Grass). - food prices at IGA Lodge Grass: 16 sausages for $7, gal milk $8.30, baloney $5.75, cantaloupe $6, bananas $0.80, bag of chips $4. Sun dried choke cherries can be rehydrated with water. Cattle (based on a vision). Per tradition food was made with protein, fat and berries.

PETER SANTANELLO’S CROW RESERVATION VIDEO https://youtu.be/LON6eGikrKk Traditions: Apsaalooke- “Children of the Large Beak Bird” (name of the Crow people). giving away first kill to clan uncle, giving food to generations, food offerings for spirits to eat a small amount, it is all a cycle. Not wearing orange while hunting. Some friction, views of non-tribal people needing to respect the Crow and respect the lands. Elk can sense energy waves rf waves). Horses. Social media allowing people to help others and help w/ issues. Living in multiple worlds, modern world, conveniences, ancestral cultural food systems. Chief by going to battle, many modern veterans high enlisting group on military, sports, basketball. Living in 3 worlds. Medicine man Frank Fruscrow. Vision Quests- fasting, pipe smoke, ceremony of rocks getting heated from prayer only no fire. Time & worlds all exist at the same time, Gregorian time is linear, Einstein’s Theory of Relativity the faster you go time slows down itself until it comes to a halt, it can be spliced to go backwards. Tribal Government is a colonial construct and they make the laws and ordinances, it is a foreign concept in Crow Country. Historically used Teepees not permanent housing structures and teepees has more flexibility to change out non-working or broken parts- women would be keepers of the home putting up poles and entire lodging. Families may move in together during hardships. Feeding everyone in the home offering guests the best foods and it is culturally offensive to offer lesser foods or decline the best that is being offered. Needs for tribal cultural jurisdictions to be enforced, warriors used to enforce policies surrounding crimes and illegal activities historically. Plenty Coups (chief, quote) “With education you are the White Man’s equal and without it you are his victim.” Outcasted educated people who return- trying to change the status quo, the 80 hour club works 80 hr per wk and you never see them at work, comfortable people don’t want to change anything because they are getting nice checks. Leaders get voted in and the ones with largest families likely win and are hard to get voted out. Foreign concepts to make people fight. Crow Fairgrounds- where Crow Fair is held the 3rd wk of August ea year, Powwow, rodeo, parades, teepees set up throughout the valley making it the teepee capital, 100yo festival. Newly caught horses in corral to ride one until stand still, there were deaths, it is a sport, games of war games in the culture, men would stand in the corral and tried to ride and tame the horse when they were all released into the corral. Regalia- elk teeth worn by women show husband is a good (SORRY THIS PART WAS ACCIDENTALLY DELETED) iding going for leases to extract resources from the land. Lodge Grass valley of the chiefs- Oshoajikcha. Food as medicines. Per tradition food was made with protein, fat and berries, pemican.

(The topic of White Church begins a few seconds after 13:30 time stamp). SOME SHOW NOTES, BRIEF IDEAS: White Church/ (folk religion) (based on The Guardian yt channel vid). Heathen faith, worshipping Nordic Gods. Church for people Of native European descent, Racial purity, fears of white genocide, (fragile, weak, needing sense of purpose). Minnesota temple (3rd).Preserving blonde hair and blue eyes. Kindred groups join. Viking era teachings and exclusion of people non white who want to be members. Considered a “folk religion” but called white supremacists. Not trying to take over but want to call those called to practice that religion. Founded in 1994. White heritage and culture worth preserving. Denial of white supremacist rallies calling it a “peaceful protest rally.” A counter protester was killed. Systems of racism and oppression in Murdock not being called out and connections of the group to the KKK & violent groups appealing to impoverished and ppl who don’t feel that they have a place. IS THIS RACISM? IS THIS A THREAT TO SAFETY OF MINORITIES? - white supremacists - Attraction of white supremacists - freedom of religion - Exclusion based on color - white safe spaces - Hatred, internal vs promotion of hatred. VERSUS: asatru kindred who protested that group, they allow lgbtq and other races. They call AFA defiling the church. Nothing in the literature states needing to have Northern European descent. States AFA does evil deeds. Community, ritual, connecting to the past.
Celebration of heritage w/o exclusion and hatred.

I also wonder- how did church while Jesus was on earth compare, and how did churches begin to look after Jesus died? Is it okay that the church evolved from a form of Judaism into a form of Paganism?

Dave Ramsey often mentions that managing finances is primarily a behavioral issue (assuming one makes enough to cover their cost of living). Behaviors are often predicted by emotional states. And being in a state of distress or being unable to currently manage stress can often lead to spending issues. How can one manage this issue?

Here is an attempt at discussing the complexities of Black Pride LGBTQ+ Festival (San Diego 2022). What preconceived notions do you come into the conversation with upon reading the title and episode description? Where do those ideas come from and why? Culture, minority, LGBTQ+, race, and ethnic topics are already very complex to begin with. Here we open the discussion to all. Think about your own personal comfort levels with cultural events of different types, are some more comfortable than others, do you understand some protocols while others feel like you're in a foreign land? Is there value? Tension? joy? Love?

Witchcraft vs. Healing (theories of the universe before evil, heavenly realms, love vs. evil on Earth). From a video about Amish culture and “braufe” leads to questions of what is considered evil vs. good. Culturally every group has taboos, rights, wrongs. Can a person really tell if something is a right or wrong form of healing? And from where to do those concepts arise? We start before the beginning of human existence in some cultures and traditions.

As I’m driving out from checking out of the hotel near Mountain High Resort, I start to record briefly some methods I’ve been implementing on my recent time off. Being off work I’ve been snowboarding and absorbing a change of scenery in the mountains. The sound quality is rough with a lot of feedback from the sound of the car on the road. I enjoy recording on the road as it gives me a couple hours to be creative while driving. But I hope it’s not too much of a pain to hear the road in the background.

Emotions often seem to control us. Here we break down the process of how emotions lead to patterns and those patterns can be unhelpful and keep us stuck. We take a look under the microscope and look into the hidden details of how to notice patterns and how to stop them for long enough to implement changes. Whether the relationship is with ourselves, a partner, a friend or family members we can learn to have more control and focus by taking what isn’t working and shifting it into new patterns that take bold and brave actions but are simple and with practice you can feel different and improve relations with yourself and loved ones.

Dolores Cannon on her Metaphysical Hour podcast has an episode called “talk about her cases.” https://youtu.be/Qv93Hen22wg In this episode Dolores Cannon explains the process by which she helps patients identify areas of burden that have physical impacts. And the process she uses to help them heal. Here in our episode continuing about spirituality, I break down a method of emotional processing that I’ve seen work with my own clients. I’ve worked over 5 years with clients having pervasive mental health symptoms, often leading doctors to prescribe psychiatric medications lifelong. Many of my clients are considered disabled and unable to support themselves financially through stable work as the symptoms impact in life how they might balance their days to function as the American Western culture requires. And I must mention the cultural expectations because I do believe with a more flexible option they would be able to support themselves. My primary focus is breaking down the social impact on emotions that lead to symptoms. The ongoing toxic patterns in relationships that continue the distress cycles and lead to triggers and symptom relapse.

Here there are questions explored about common phrases used by believers that may not be in the Bible but are taught as religious or Biblically represented truths.

Also the rabbi looks at Adam and Eve in the garden, snd the different trees in the garden, the blocking of “the way” to the tree of life, Jewish vs. Christian views of Torah law and covenants, different veils, commandments, and how the Holy Spirit in the heart compares to Jewish beliefs of Torah on stone tablets.

Here Rabbi Greg DeValera breaks it down (in minute 23 he starts talking about passages in Daniel then afterwards about the link to Jewish and Pagan holiday history). The intro talks in the initial 23 mins recaps from after the crucifixion of Jesus how the early a Christian church was still practicing Jewish traditions just but they were believers in Jesus (Yeshua HaMachiach is Hebrew for Jesus the Messiah/ Christ).
