Any argument based on facts of any kind is reduced to a policy if the argument is value-based and/or subjective. This holds true for the so called scientific discussions in which the lack of refutability is often implicitly introduced by implicit assumptions or assumptions that miss refutability. The lack of refutability plays a critical role in a discussion when the reasons or assumptions for a statement rely heavily on statistical inferences. Why? It is because statistical inferences are based on data which could mislead them without much difficulty by data exclusions, intentional choices of data periods to be considered, misrepresentations of data, and in the worst case fabrications of data. Of these data exclusions is the most widely used approach for persuasive statements trying to lead the flock of people to a certain action that is to them desirable. Carefully designed data exclusions can bring any conclusions. One of such is the approach where respondents are intentionally excl...

The Age of No Blessings?

While recognizing that there are several such topics that may lead me to risk being regarded as someone, if without careful handling, who might have a brain sort of out of order; who might deviate himself, to the extent that one can leave no attention perhaps for one’s own interests, from such behavior that may be socially accepted regardless of the diversity in existing human societies; who might be mentally challenged considering the observation that rejects any possibility of understanding from the point of view of any global human standards in the human history; who might rather have dangerous thoughts in his own way of developing his own logic given even the slightest sign of reason if any; and with whom any sort of continued interaction, therefore, could bring hardship of any kind to the one... Never mind... The recent practice of a sitting-in-the-sun-with-emptied-brain method suggests that the laws have permanently changed that govern what may not be visible and yet could be fel...

Cease Striving: Psalm 46 KJV

Psalm 46 KJV   46 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. [2] Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; [3] Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. [4] There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. [5] God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early. [6] The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted. [7] The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. [8] Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth. [9] He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire. [10] Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among...

Psalm 115 KJV Revisited

Any cell is a cancer if its function deviates from the one that is inherently supposed to be. Thus any cell with its function being artificially modified is a man-made cancer. Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands... They may call others "anti- whatever they may create". They actually are anti-GOD.  115 Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake. 2 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God? 3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased. 4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. 5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not: 6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not: 7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat. 8 They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them. 9 O Israel...

The soul and the ego. Or when the proverb holds: Stultum facit fortuna, quem vult perdere.

One may control one's own ego in accordance with what one's soul may long. One may not, however, control one's own soul because the soul is something that is heavenly given to the one when one is born as a being with a physical form. When the soul and the body are combined as a being the ego of one's own evolves as the one grows. One may lead one's life to a state where what the soul longs matches what the ego longs. If there is a gap between what is longed by the soul and what is longed by the ego, there is a varying degree of tension correspondent with the degree of gaps in them. If such a gap is too huge that the one is unable to listen to one's own soul and hence is unable to undestand what the soul is actually longing, then it is often the case that Publilius Syrus' famous proverb holds: Stultum facit fortuna, quem vult perdere. Let us be reminded of Matthew 7:13-14 KJV: [13] Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, th...

What will happen?

It is very strange to me, though seemingly not recognized as such until publicly or professionally revealed enough, that a simple law is often overlooked which is that any being has its own maximum capacity of storage. This is true for storage of information of any kind. Let us suppose that fully-described carriers of information form a being that is nicely organized as a life. What will happen to the being if the composition of information in the storage is intentionally modified so that an originally non-installed function is artificially gained? Since the storage is kind of Pareto-optimal, some of the originally installed information is overwritten by what is now being newly installed. Then the function expressed by the pre-installed information is lost in exchange for that expressed by the newly installed information. What will happen if the lost function is vital for a life to be as the life?
