Knowledge is useful, but only actions get results. What we know is irrelevant to what we do if we fail to use that knowledge to help us decide what to do, or worse, let someone else decide for us based on what they know. See my response to your request for my C.V. With your awareness of our relative growth defecits, what will _you_ do next? Mark L. Fergerson

So people who need > glasses have really big god(s) and people with 20/15 vision have no god. > Right? [Hammond] Wrong. Both the 7 year old and the 15 year old have "20-20 vision". But the 15 year old can actually see 15 frames a second as single pictures... while the 7 year old an only discriminate 10 frames a second before it becomes a "movie". The difference is that "comprehending a picture" takes more than vision... it takes "intelligence" (i.e. perceptual processing speed)... and the 15 year old has more of it because his brain is MORE GROWN than the 7 year old's (higher mental speed=higher intelligence, note I didn't say IQ, I said Intelligence... IQ is Intelligence divided by age remember... for exactly that reason by the way). What this means then, since reality is a continously changing scene.... is that the 7 year old "cannot see" 1/3 of reality compared to the 15 year old.... a fact that any parent is well aware of. > Can we see your god if we film everything in high speed frames and slow it > down so our witto minds can comprehend? [Hammond] No.. despite the fascination with "slow motion" in camera phenomena (because it is 'reminicent' of said phenomena of God).... it is NOT THE SAME THING... and is unfortunately NO WHERE NEAR as dramatic as an actual increase in mental speed (i.e. God). The reason is, when you slow down a film of a person, all you see is the same person (same identity) moving slower. However... if that person actually really underwent a total REAL life slow down... his "identity" would change. First, he would be considered a "lower class" person than he is now, he would have a different expression on his face because of that, and different mannerisms and affects of speech.. a totally different 'personality' (and attitude) and would certainly be dressed differently and belong to a different social circle... he would be TOTALLY different.... not merely "the same person but going slower". And this is WHY it takes an "artist" to depict pictures of "God" (i.e. the effects of God) on real people... such as the Mona Lisa. The Mona Lisa is world famous because it represents a very well known personality type in history, and FURTHERMORE, is a dramatic example of what an "increase in mental speed" will DO (e.g. "transform") that particular personality into a person of rare beauty. Mona Lisa is one of the leading (artistic) representations of what the "realization of God" does to a person... which is why the painting is worth $50,000,000 dollars. So... the upshot is NO... we are not going to be able to "see God" by using simple zoom lenses and slow motion on our video recorders (altho someone should be looking into it). My prognostication is that ultimately sophisticated "virtual reality" techniques using artistic input, biology AND massive computing power, eventually WILL allow us to "see God"... see our "real selves".... see "other people's real selves" etc. etc...... but it isn't going to happen overnight. Eventually, such techniques will probably replace psychiatrists (or psychiatrists will become masters at the technique)... and it might even replace drug threapy for mental illness. And CERTAINLY it will be the be all and end all of educational therapy and a large component of public education and even entertainment... far surpassing anything Hollywood ever dreamed of! > Are you saying its like when those > people on Star Trek were moving so fast they were invisible and sounded like > gnats? Like that? [Hammond] Well... you/ve got to realize all of Hollywood fantasy IS in fact an artistic attempt to educate the people as to what "God" is. right now it's pretty crude... with creatures like "Klingons", "Gaaulls" and others wandering around the set. But once "virtual reality" comes of age driven by a mathematical theory of God and substantial computer power.... WOW... you're going to see things you never even dreamed existed.

The only thing that you've ever proven in your miserable excuse for a life is that Pergamon Press will publish complete trash. AntiSPOG: http://schornak.de/aspog/0000.htm http://schornak.de/aspog/0001.htm http://schornak.de/aspog/0002.htm http://schornak.de/aspog/0003.htm http://schornak.de/aspog/0004.htm From AntiSPOG: "In my evaluation of Hammond's "Introduction to SPoG" I checked 180 claims Hammond has made. 11 (eleven) of these 180 claims can be seen as true. Most of the agreed statements are trivial like "Today the world faces enormous crises in population, oil resources, terrorism and Third World poverty.". This statement alone includes four of the eleven agreed claims. A thesis based on 11 true and 169 false claims must be discarded as inadequately thought-out. Scientific work published in the internet should be based on traceable thoughts and backed up with references which are accessible for everyone - e.g. by quoting passages out of a book or adding links to other websites. This isn't the case in Hammond's work. Mentioning names of (questionable) "authorities" doesn't make a claim true, it only might be used to back up the own position. If a thesis is based on the work of other scientists, a detailed description should be added to see what they've contributed to the new thesis. If - like Hammond says - statistical data of other scientists are involved, it is a usual thing to add a link to these data or to give detailed information where they were published. Hammond's SPoG in the given form is the mediocre work of an amateur. It lacks of logic and often contradicts itself. It claims to be "scientific", but it doesn't show any example of scientific experiments to back it up nor does it follow basic scientific rules. The best example surely is Hammond's attempt to assign his virtual "psychometric space" to real space. This attempt alone disqualifies Hammond as an incompetent amateur who never has understood anything regarding real sciences. If I - as an autodidactic amateur - can see these flaws, errors and misinterpretations, then I ask myself why Hammond expects that professional scientists should consider to agree with something like his SPoG. On the other hand, no real Christian will need Hammond's SPoG. In the eyes of a true Christian, any attempt to calculate "God" is blasphemic, the work of a heretic. Even if I don't believe in higher entities, I do respect the beliefs of others. Hammond doesn't have such qualms - he insults all Christians and rubs their deity through the dirt. In the end, Hammond neither will win the hearts of true Christians nor will he convince the reason of scientists. It took me two weeks to gather all the information to disprove SPoG, a professional scientist could do the same in less than two minutes... "

Where others see descreat frames you see a blur. Urm. It's what I've also been saying - you have a step 1 and a step 2 but nearly always no actual link between the two. In this case step 1 is how fast your sensory perception works and step 2 is, er, god. Stew Dean |
