Seriously great video! A free exploration of pottery to glimpse the results from the medieval mind through their resources and what was considered acceptable enough to make and use and sell and purchase!
What are his politics?
There appears to me to be no real way to distinguish between magic and religion or even science. The book Arcana Mundi as well as White Magic Black Magic seem to make it clear that academics have not finalized any distinction really between magical activity and religious activity though they have tried and furthermore that magical and ritualistic procedures were the forerunner to modern science.
The best politics are ethical and in favor of healing and helping anything and everything in our environment to make for a better world.
In many cases, magic seemed to be an anticipator of scientific realities which made magical dreams and wishes all the more possible and regular. In this same way, heaven and hell may also be achieved and many other things which have been anticipated or dreamed of.
In the case of magic and magical procedures they appear in ancient times largely indistinguishable from prayers and then again from taboos and superstitions.
Many of the complex seeming material rituals appear to be symbolic operations and convoluted representative events which say things through images and actions obscured by their immediate sense and left for subconcious understanding or not to be understood at all.
In many cases it was believed the divine spoke through mystical happenings and correspondences and so these sorts of measures may have been taken to “talk back” in the symbolic and mystical language of actions and events and objects.
There was some debate between how magic is conducted or even how prayers are answered. The main contenders were God or a Singular Master Power sometimes called the Devil, Spirits or Gods or Daemons all the same meaning a variety of beings generally of the same sort, or The World or Nature of things which was a belief in something akin to a system or Universal physics. These also can be combined or all selected and claimed simultaneously as one or as a combination of shared components such as a little science or nature and a little spirit activity and a little God or Devil control or help or influence.
Hey so far on the older browser no lag while typing this!
Very cool and true!
Rights are constructed with fists as often appears in propaganda imagery. No one has rights and all existence is invasive ad perturbing. We did not consent to be born, nor to know suffering nor largely to die. We were unrightfully brought about and irresponsibly tortured and taken away. Rights are an important notion and tool to impose or pressure people with but a human will get away with whatever thy can when they can if there was no concern regarding anything, so concern should be made for them in order to better control and predict their behavior and if they remain without concern they should be considered a threa and captured and killed for “abusing” their chains.
Exactly!
I didn’t write more because of the lag issue it took a long time for it to complete typing my words.
I was going to go into how women are cursed in several ways a lead that into how peope of African descent seem to be cursed also now and then to a discussion of fear of Jews and the feelings I imagine Jewish people might have within bodies associated with Jewishness.
Arab volatility as an old trope and the often unheard of masculinity of arab women as a reality.
On violence as the closest to truth and reasoninga hyper-reality that in a sense can be considered the furthest.
So many things. Feel free to mention your most radical ideas or radical ideas you’ve noticed.
God as Death and Death as the traditional driving force in all senses with many examples and explanations.
Different rates of motion giving the appearance of life.
Vanity as the highest virtue and tool for human resource control.
Haha I definitely prefer that correction too.
One really impressive thing I have been thinking about recently as well as other times has been about how religion can be utterly simplified safely after being understood. I see this total simplification to the point of practical meaningless destruction of content in some Buddhist eruptions of religious practice where their religion as expressed to the lay populace becomes just a word or a name of a figure repeated in order to achieve a heaven realm. Though that is even more content than I would like the blank state religion is one that impresses one with an exhaustive familiarity with anything else or at all., making itself a somewhat relaxing novelty to fall back to like a refreshing dip in ablutive waters.
Excellent posts both! Very true! It makes me so happy when people seem to think and understand more!
Wow, they deleted posts?
Lots yes, lots of hard work and writing just destroyed like a Buddhist sand mandala thing. Now they mainly just harass me if I write anything at all and close my threads. They are absolutely terrible people. You should see how they acted in my ethics thread called “is magic real, if so then so” that was one of my last posts there. I left it at 3333 posts but can use those 3333 posts to post more if I wanted to as portals.
Thank you so much! Yeah that was wonderful to see.

Great find! Since what I showed above was all hidden and unknown to me it was amazing to find out how much appropriate seeming meaning was in m name.
“In Ancient Rome the predictive power of a person’s name was captured by the Latin proverb “nomen est omen”, meaning the name is a sign.[55] This saying is still in use today in English[55] and other languages such as French,[56] German,[57] Italian,[58] Dutch,[59] and Slovenian.[60]
Another aspect of naming was the importance attached to the wider meaning contained in a name. In 17th-century England it was believed that choosing a name for a child should be done carefully. Children should live according to the message contained in, or the meaning of their names.[11] In 1652 William Jenkyn, an English clergyman, argued that first names should be “as a thread tyed about the finger to make us mindful of the errand we came into the world to do for our Master”.[12] In 1623, at a time when Puritan names such as Faith, Fortitude and Grace were appearing for the first time, English historian William Camden wrote that names should be chosen with “good and gracious significations”, as they might inspire the bearer to good actions.
New Scientist coined the term nominative contradeterminism for people who move away from their name, creating a contradiction between name and occupation.”
He probably shares some near identical statements and ideas with me and other mystics but it so often happens that those who are present are ignored and disregarded until they publish and especially are made otherwise unavailable.
Absolutely. Very excellent truth.
Excellent question. The word meaning can be confusing as well as the word purpose or anything indicating a necessary reasoning.
It may be more beneficial while tagging the mystical line to speak of the apparent function which life, which in this sense I take to mean experience or consciousness appears to achieve, and that is it appears to achieve information, which here means that which informs, or in other words, expression, that which expresses.
What is expressing in the first is the only which to express. That means in its greatest form, experience appears to be Self Expression, expression of oneself through communicative material known as information or experience, to its own apprehension and which appears and is this known, to itself.
So even though such may not be necessary in this way, and may result in accepted absurdities like butterflies appearing to drink flowers from a proboscis, it is all communication, from the Sole power to the Sole power. An expression of its self from itself to itself by itself.
Self Expression.
Now the other way one can answer is what is the best meaning one can make for their lives or purpose?
In that case, survival and increasing comfortable survival while pursuing what lacks suffering and penalties in pursuit of the best possible one can keep working for and improvements while avoiding harm and consequences.
Survival can in this sense mean continued motion and by extension continued expression and experience or ability to in at least some sense move or be animated which does not necessitate the appearance of bodily movement.
I felt the same way and I feel one way or another the governments and lobbying groups are behind interpreting or promoting everything towards whatever their ultimate agendas are.
