A highlight from Evidence for Inspiration: Part II
"First Timothy chapter number six, we are discussing the evidence that there is for the inspiration of scripture. We believe the Bible to be the word of God written, pinned, written down, recorded by 40 different men in three languages over a period of 1600 years, but evidently with one author and that author being almighty God who created us to have relationship with him and loves us and so he's revealed himself to us in writing through what we call the Holy Bible. It's a book of books, 66 books, but all fits together and we believe it to be divinely inspired inerrant, meaning without error, it is pure, it is perfect, it is powerful and there are very few people who still believe that. The majority of people believe that the Bible came somewhat from God, but you know you can't really believe that every word is as God wants it to be. There are more people who think it's a myth and a fairy tale and a legend than who believe that it is the word of God and is to be taken literally. 415 times the Bible uses the phrase, thus saith the Lord, 313 times the Bible references the word of God or the word of the Lord and we believe that. I believe that. You've got to make up your mind whether or not you believe that. I trust that you do and so what we're covering is the evidence that we have to support that belief. God does not ask us, he does ask us to exercise faith. He does not ask us to exercise blind faith. Faith and reason are not mutually exclusive. Faith and evidence are not mutually exclusive. This is not a blind faith. This is a credible faith. There are reasons to believe that the Bible is the word of God and if the Bible is the word of God and if what it says is true, then it would behoove us to find out what it says and build our lives upon it. It has the answer to eternal life, life after death. It has the answer to salvation from sin in relationship with God. It has the answer for the best way to live upon this earth. We read in 2 Peter chapter 1, where into ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place and so while we study the evidence for the inspiration of scripture, there are two different benefits, primary benefits that we derive from this study. Number one, it bolsters our faith and confidence. Wherever that might be lacking, it gives us every reason to continue to believe that the Bible is the word of God and continue to attempt to build our lives upon the truth of scripture, but then what we also want to be able to do is to articulate these truths in conversation with lost people that we're trying to witness to, many of whom have no point of reference when we try to start in and give them the gospel and tell them about Jesus Christ and his death on the cross, his resurrection, how we can be forgiven. Well a lot of times we've got to go back to the very beginning and establish that God is the creator and he gave us his word and there are many who will oppose the truth that we believe that the Bible is divinely inspired and we want to be able to give some reasons for why we believe what we believe. We were in Pennsylvania a couple weeks ago, had youth camp all week long. On Saturday we went downtown Lancaster, Pennsylvania to do some street preaching and some witnessing and had a great time with a few brothers down there and right before we left I had this conversation with a man who came by and wanted to oppose what was happening and call us names and so you know how it goes. Most people want to make you know snide comments or smart comments but they do it while they're in motion and while they're almost out of earshot, you understand what I'm talking about? They don't come up to you and say something to your face so they can engage you in conversation, they try to just like lob a bomb right after they're out of reach and so you know I challenge in a friendly way I hope, in a nice way I challenge the individual, tell me what you believe, let's have a conversation. I walk over to him and he's cussing and he's being profane and he's you know calling me stupid and he believed in the big banks so I asked him for his evidence. He had absolutely none, he had absolutely no reason to believe what he believed other than, and he basically admitted this and I pointed out to him in the conversation excuse me, other than he didn't want God to tell him what to do. I've got some coffee, I need to cough, excuse me, okay that's better. So it's good to be able to and I went into some of these things about why we believe the Bible is the Word of God and it is we have reason to believe it and the next one this morning we talked about the continuity of Scripture, the unity of Scripture, how you could not replicate what we have in the Bible if you were to attempt to do this. These 40 different, 1600 years, three different languages and so many topics and it all fits together and no contradictions and then we talked about the endurance of Scripture, heaven or earth shall pass away but God's Word shall not pass away and this Bible has been attacked throughout history and yet it remains the best -selling book in all the world. We talked about fulfilled prophecy and we could go on and on and on talking about fulfilled prophecy and how it verifies the inspiration of Scripture, 351 Old Testament prophecies fulfilled in the first coming of Jesus Christ. But we'll continue this morning with scientific accuracy, scientific accuracy and I've misplaced my copy of the bulletin so I can follow along with your notes, there it is. First Timothy chapter 6 and verse number 20 is our first reference we'll look at, not sure how many of these references we can get to this morning but we'll try our best. First Timothy chapter 6 and in verse number 20 the Bible says, oh Timothy keep that which is committed I trust avoiding profane and vain battleings and oppositions of science falsely so -called. Now God anticipated the arguments that people would make against his word, God anticipated that people would say they don't believe in the Bible they believe in science, that was this individual that I spoke to a week ago yesterday. He claimed to believe in science, when I asked him what science he believed in he had no idea, he had no answer for why the Big Bang contradicted the scientific laws of thermodynamics, the scientific law of the conservation of angular momentum. Science and the Big Bang are incompatible. Now there are scientists who believe in the Big Bang because they don't want to believe in God but science is knowledge that is gained through observation and experimentation and nobody has observed anything like the Big Bang taking place. Nobody has observed the evolution of one species to another species, these are people who call people who call themselves scientists believe these things but that is science falsely so -called, it comes under the name of science but that is a misnomer, okay. It's not science at all, it's theory, it's belief, it's religion, it takes faith but people don't believe in the Bible because they believe in science. I believe in science, I believe in the water cycle, right, I believe in things that you can observe, I believe in germ theory, that's been demonstrated, right, I believe that a mask is about as helpful as a chain link fence, that's scientific, those are starting to come back out. Anyway scientific accuracy backs up the Bible, the Bible is not a science book but where it makes a scientific statement it is always accurate, in fact the Bible outpaces modern scientific discovery over and over and over again, there are things that began to be discovered in the 1800s that men thought this is modern scientific advancement and those things that were discovered beginning in the 1800s and on were in the Bible all along and how did these men who wrote thousands of years ago have this advanced scientific knowledge unless and here's where it is, I mean unless, unless God inspired what these men wrote, if the God who is the creator of heaven and earth, if the God who is the one who set up the laws that govern nature, if he's the one that gave the words, they don't make perfect sense that these men could have some advanced understanding of scientific principles and there are so many illustrations of this, we'll just take a few of them this morning, let's turn quickly, Job 26, Job is the oldest book in your Bible, I understand it does not come first sequentially but the book of Job was written prior to the book of Genesis, Job 26 and verse number 7, Job 26 and verse number 7, the Bible says in Job 26 7, he stretches out the north over the empty place and hangeth the earth upon nothing, here's what Job knew thousands of years ago that the Job understood what was theorized and demonstrated by Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton and modern scientists, Job understood the principles of gravity that the earth hangs upon nothing, that God stretched out the north over the empty place, that's a scientific fact in your Bible, Isaiah chapter 40 and verse 22, Isaiah 40 and verse number 22, the year 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue, he was going to arrive in the East Indies by sailing west, there was deep concern that he would fall off the edge of the earth, what they did not know at the time was that on the edges there were huge walls of ice and it would be impossible for Columbus to penetrate those and fall off over the edge, but no here's what Columbus believed that the earth was round, it was a sphere, you could go west and eventually circle back to the east, now it was a lot farther than he imagined that it was, he landed in the Caribbean and thought he was in the Indies or claimed them to be, so anyway you got the East Indies and the West Indies, but in Isaiah 40 and verse number 22 the Bible said in 712 BC, 712 years before Christ, it is he, God, that sitteth upon the circle of the earth and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers that stretched out the heavens as a curtain and spread them out as a tent to dwell in, the earth is spherical, that is a fact that was written many, many, many, many, many years before Galileo, Isaiah wrote down that the earth is round, Luke chapter 17, look at that one, no go to Job 25, Job 25, I've got some extra references in my notes that we didn't put in yours just because we have a limited amount of time, Job 25 and verse number 5, Job 25 verse 5, the Bible says behold even to the moon and it shineth not, yea the stars are not pure in his sight, so the moon does not shine, now in the sky at night it looks like it shines, especially on a clear night with a full moon, the moon is bright, you almost don't need a flashlight on a night like that to go out at night time and see because the moon is shining brightly except it's not, we understand now that the moon simply reflects the light of the sun, it does not shine at all of itself, which is a type of picture of the Christian, let your light so shine, well Jesus is the light of the world, he's in us, we're to reflect his light like the moon reflects the light of the sun, but here's a scientific fact, in the oldest book of the Bible, the moon does not shine, it reflects sunlight, look at first chronicles chapter 1, first chronicles chapter 1, verse 19, there's even science tucked into the genealogies, how many of you get real excited when you're reading your Bible and you come to first chronicles chapter number 1, here's my chance to learn how to pronounce all these weird names, first chronicles chapter 1 verse 19, and unto Eber were born two sons, name of them was Peleg, it's a weird name, I wonder if he tried to pronounce that differently because in his days the earth, I wonder if he had a dog, anyway because in his days the earth was divided and his brother's name, now come on wouldn't you be bitter if your name was Peleg and your brother had a cool name like Joktan, his brother's name was Joktan, but what happened in the days of Peleg, let's call him Peleg because in his days the earth was divided, continental drift theory, remember learn about that in science class, Pangea, the earth is all one land mass and then it splits apart and it moves apart and we have continents, listen the Bible wrote about that in the book of first chronicles, these events are 4000 BC or a little bit sooner and God gave the writer of first chronicles this scientific understanding of continental drift, look at Ecclesiastes chapter 1.

Dr. Rima Labow Tells Us About PreventGenocide2030.org and Herself
"World Health Organization has done this thing that if it weren't for Michelle bachmann, I wouldn't have even known about it. She was talking about it a year ago. We averted it a year ago. But they're trying to take away our sovereignty as Americans. And again, it's hard for us to process this because I think most Americans have been so blessed that we've ever been forced to think about the sovereignty of America. What else could there be? But the point is globalists are the enemies of sovereign nation states. They don't like that idea. They would prefer slowly, but surely to take over control of everything. And with puppets like Joe Biden in The White House, they're well on their way to achieving these things. So your website is prevent genocide 2030 dot com. Dot org. Dot org, sorry. Prevent genocide 2030 dot org. So we want first and foremost for everybody to go to prevent genocide 2030 dot org and spread this via social media. But a doctor rima lebeau tell us how you came into this world where you're an expert on this and where you're sounding the alarm on this. What was your background proceeding this sort of thing? I'm an MD. I was graduated in 1970, which I'm happy to say is still within living memory from the Albert Einstein college of medicine in New York. And I practice drug free medicine and psychiatry because I'm trained in my post graduate years as an adult child and adolescent psychiatrist. And I practiced drug free psychiatry and gradually, people who had non psychiatric diagnoses began coming to me from around the world saying, can you help me because I've been told to go home and die or there's no cure or I have to live with the pain or some other awful situation prevailed in their life. And they said, can you help? And I said, I don't know, but I'll use the methods that I have to try.

How Did Hitler Rise to Power?
"You guys may you guys may know that in the 19th century, the German people, I mean, you're talking about arts, you're talking about science, you're talking about education, they were it. They were the bomb. There was, they were the best people that they were, as far as education, arts, talent, you name it. Automobiles, you name it. It was Germany. It was Germany. So what happens to bring about this dictator by the name of Adolf Hitler? I mean, people were going to college left and right there. People could, if you were enabled person and when I say able, you have to be smart, you have to be intelligent, but if you could prove you were intelligent, people in Germany were going to college, they went from, I believe is right prior to World War I, 73,000 people in college and leading up to World War I are immediately following a 120,000. I mean, that was the center of learning. It was the envy of the world Americans would go there to study people. Albert Einstein was, I mean, it was just an amazing place. It was an amazing place. But things started to happen. They had people that came into power that had bad policies and after World War I, they were embarrassed. They thought they were winning and their leaders were lying to them. And then their leaders come back and they find the people find out the news and they're embarrassed and they're humiliated and then president Woodrow Wilson comes out with his 14 point plan and they believe there's gonna be some negotiation between Germany and the American people, but the problem is the British and the French are allies wanted their peace of Germany's booty because they didn't like them. And they wanted Germany to pay the price.

Parenting Autistic Children David Grant MBE - burst 2
"This episode will be doing things a little bit differently, though, as I'll be interviewing my husband, yes, fellow broadcast a vocal coach and leadership coach and campaigner David grant. As we talk about our own experiences of raising four neurodivergent children, welcome to the show David. Wow, nice to be here, Gary. So for those people that don't know about our family, could you just give us a rundown of our kids? Okay, we have four children our eldest olive is an actor. Our and olive is 27. Next in line is Thailand, who is 20 and also an actor. Next in line is Arlo, who is 16 and at school. And next is in line is Nathan, who is 12. And supposed to be at school, but currently not in school. Yes, okay, so you just had a little bit of a hint towards their not in school. That's been a familiar experience for us with three out of the four children. Because you've named all of their ages in their names and stuff. But what about their diagnoses? Just run me by some of the diagnosis that our children have got. Okay, I will, but because this is like a pick and mix at which point I'm bound to forget some. Would you jump in if I forget any? Yes. Because you know them as well as I do. Olive, has a disparity. And ADHD, Thailand is on the autism spectrum. And Arlo, third is on the autism spectrum. And Nathan. Now I got a minute rewind rewind back up back up. Arlo is autistic and has ADHD. Of course, yes, I forgot all of it as a whole a whole suit of what coterie. Yeah, these disabilities, they're traveling gangs, don't they? And has ADHD. Nathan a 12 year old has ADHD DMDD. Probably dyslexia. Even though they're still working on a diagnosis, and yeah, we have, you know, at some point, if anybody does disability bingo, we jump up and say house. Yeah, well, it's interesting you say disability because I don't really think of them as being disabilities. I think of them as being just different. I don't think of them as there are any disabilities in the light of the fact that the world is so unaccepting. That's very true. I think that one of the things with an invisible disability so it's called is that, you know, if we what we have done in our family is to recognize that the reason why it's called a disability is because some people find it more challenging to do things that neurotypical people take for granted. On the other hand, without children, it's also proven to be a different ability, because so many of them are able in ways in so many ways that they might not otherwise be able. You know, the gifted in ways that they might otherwise not be gifted. They're different and see the world in ways that absolutely challenge a neurotypical vision of the world. Yeah, and that's what we love about them. So tell me what it was like when all of these diagnoses that you've just mentioned there started to pop up. How did that come about and what were your feelings? Well, it's interesting. I've spoken to so many parents because we run parent groups. And I spoke to so many parents about the initial diagnosis and the reactions have been very, very many in varied, you know, for some people, it's a bit of a shock for some people it's almost like a disappointment for others. It's a surprise for others. It's an explanation. And I would say for us, well, certainly for me, it was in part an explanation. And also, in part, a sort of a wake-up call that said to me, this journey isn't going to be anything that you might have imagined. It is going to be. We don't know what it's going to be, but what we do know is that it's going to, it's going to plow its own field and chart its own course when we first got the diagnosis of our second and third Thailand and Arlo, the ones who are now 2016, which we got the autism diagnosis on the same day. Tai was 7. Aloe was three. What was that like for you? I have to be honest. And there was absolutely no sort of like heightened emotion connected to it, concern or disappointment or what was there was, okay, I need to now discover what this means. What this means for them, what this means for us and how it makes things different. Is it going to make things different if it does? How is it going to make things different? Because it didn't change them in any way. They got in the car. You got given the diagnosis and then they just got in the car and they were still Tyler and Arlo, weren't they? They had to change. But with that bit of paper yeah, it didn't change them one dot. One shot. One bit. But what it did change was my awareness of who they were. What it did change is my awareness that they may see the world a different way. And I didn't know what that was going to be, because there are only 7 and three, but what I did know was that the carnage journey that you can prescribe and chart out and say that the raising of a child is likely to fall within these parameters. There may be anywhere from track a to track B but the train is going to run along these tracks in some way. That went completely out of the way. I didn't realize at the time just how far out of the window it was going to go. But I did think, okay, this changes things. And one of the, I mean, some people might call it exciting with the benefit of hindsight, but at the time slightly sort of slightly nerve wracking things was having no idea of what it meant was going to change as they grew and as they developed. And as they began to inhabit the fullness of their personhood and understand the fullness of their identities, what was going to change. Well, we didn't know. And I think that, you know, there's a saying that everyone to see person probably knows, which is even if you've met one autistic person, you've met one autistic person. And even with just having two children on the spectrum in the family, the presentation is so entirely different. Yeah, they are. If somebody said to me, when we got the diagnosis, this is what autism looked like. And used one of them as in illustration. It would have completely excluded the other. Because the other one wouldn't have got a diagnosis based on that. It's very, very good point. So you've talked about what it was like to kind of grow in your knowledge of them and who they might become and to understand them a little. But what about parenting? Have you changed as a parent? This was 2009 if I remember. So we've had a good few years since. Have you changed as a parent? As a parent, I am unrecognizable from the parent I was in 2009. Now let's be really honest about this. Anybody who has raised a child will say, well, yes, of course, the parent you are to a 16 year old and the same parent you are to three year old. So there's the natural evolution of your relationship that happens as your child grows and matures. But there's also, I think that certainly for me having children on the spectrum, it meant that I needed to really abandon everything I thought I knew about parenting. It meant that I had to discover and develop a bespoke style of parenting that fitted specifically the child that was in front of me rather than having a general sort of one size fits all approach because it absolutely didn't fit. And really, it's not to my credit that I think that I was quite resistant to that because of the way they don't fit the one size fits all. Then it's obviously because I'm not implementing the one size fits all with enough figure. So I need to I need to just retrain and double down on the one size fits all and it will work and the fact is it was never going to work. And it kind of I would say out of the two of us, I was you were the hair when it came to realizing that we needed to adapt and adopt a new parenting style and we need it to be fluid and I was very much the tortoise. There was a kind of rigidity of no this is how you do it. And you know, I think that with regard to parenting, having children on the autism spectrum has taught me and continues to teach me is teaching me to be a parent, I would otherwise never have been. And I think that had I never have been, I would have missed a lot. There's a lot of their growing up that I got by constantly having to reassess and reappraise and recognize who they are now. You know, not living on who they were last year or last week, even. You know, who are they now? Who are they today? And who do they need me to be today? Yeah. So you talked about the fact that it took you a little bit longer to describe yourself as the tortoise. So how was that then? Well, I made the tool to seem like St. Louis Hamilton. We got the diagnosis in 2009. Up until about 2012, I thought there's something wrong with these kids because they're really not getting my style of parenting. About 2012, I began to realize there was something wrong with me because I wasn't being the parent they needed me to be. And then I was all at sea. I think I took a little while to actually work out. If I've got autistic kids, I need to learn, it's not me teaching them and then learning how to be. It's actually me learning and I think that I think that when I kind of was humble enough to recognize that I didn't actually know, you know, sometimes you don't know what you don't know. But when you've got autistic children and they need you to be a parent, you have to learn what you don't know. You have to realize what you don't know and it is certainly in my case. I think I learned a lot from watching you, but I also learned a lot from realizing that I couldn't be you and I couldn't just be you the deeper voice that I actually had to change me. I couldn't just ape behavior that I saw it with someone else. I had to change the way my outlook and gosh, I would say that you're saying how long did it take to be? Well, the diagnosis arrived 13 years ago. And I consider myself still to be under construction, and a work in progress, because the dads that I was 5 years ago that they needed me to be 5 years ago isn't the dad they need me to be now. Because they've changed. Yeah. You talked a little bit there about you said this lovely phrase bespoke parenting. So just give me some examples of what you have bespoke. Bespoken. Okay, it's interesting because with, I was 16 year old, there was a rigidity of actions that isn't always, so it wasn't just a rigidity of thinking. So with Arlo, we have certain things. I am my face is a stress toy. I actually, I mean, I know I look like this, but you know, I think I would look about maybe 15 years younger, if not for all. All that has to excuse my face. And they always squeeze my face and there are certain things that we do. There are certain actions that we do. There are certain little dances we do. There are certain words that we say. I don't even understand your communication. I mean, you two are like a whole, you're like a double act. I know. It's all part of my being father to Arlo, is that we have loads of unspoken communication. That revolve around movement and actions and dances and laughing at the same thing that other people don't understand what's going on. I've had to learn that I've had to enter into our lives world and learn how that world works. On a practical thing, although loves to have drives, they want to have a drive once a day. It's part of a de stressor towards the end of the day. Some people read or watch TV or they're too young to have a drink, they go on a drive. They sit in the car and listening to music and we drive and 40 minutes later, half an hour, 40 minutes later, we arrive back home and they're in a different head space to the one they were when we left. And that's an important thing. So whatever the schedule will have my day. If I'm at home or if I'm coming home, I know I need to be out for that drive for Allah because that's an important part of parenting are there. And it's an interesting thing that to me, it's not even I don't even think of it as a chore or a stress. It's just part of being a dad. It's part of being their dad. Yeah. Because I actually think that, you know, speaking of bespoke parenting, I could quite probably be a rubbish dad to every other child in the world, but I've learned how to be the dad that the children I have need. Yeah. And that is bespoke. It is also humor. You have loads of humor, I would say, with Arlo. Yeah, yeah, we are a lot. Mostly at me, but often at all because Arlo is really funny at all that has learned to laugh at themselves in a way that they couldn't when they were younger. You know, in the early teens, they could not laugh at themselves because I think they felt such a level of low self worth and such a lack of confidence that to laugh with them at themselves would have been perceived to be laughing at them. And one of the ways that I can see that their confidence is growing and their belief that they have a place in the world is growing. Is for how much they laugh at themselves, how much of their humor is directed inwards. Yeah. I agree with you on that. Okay, so that's Arlo, who's our 16 year old. What about Tyler and katana is very different? What have you had to change very different? In your parenting of time and what's changed there for them? I think in my parenting style and what's changed is to listen to time. It's to really listen is to not be so ready to give advice, not be so ready to give an answer because even sometimes when ty says. I need to know what to do. I know that what will happen is that I'll be giving answers. And they'll be saying no, those aren't the answers. That's really bad advice. What I should be doing is this. So it's almost like they're using me as a sounding board. A classic example is when we run our way up to Holly oaks for their final audition. Time is one of the members of the cast of Holly oaks down. And it was their final audition and they were absolutely wrapped with nerves. And we're driving along the M1. And they're almost crying with us. And I thought this isn't good for them. It's really isn't good. And I said, you know what? I want you to know you don't have to do this. We can turn the car around and we can go back, and they said, so that's the worst thing you could have said. You can't say that. This is what you're supposed to say. I told you what they wanted to hear. And you know, it's a completely different kind of relationship to all that. And how we connect and how we relate is to share time together. Yes. And that's the wonderful thing we're tie. I mean, tiles say there's a box set that I've been watching and I really want you to watch it. So I'll sit and watch. And you know, maybe in the course of an hour, we'll say three or four sentences, but time. That's together time. That's valuable time. That's been our time. And you know, it'll be, I'll get a text with have a listen to this music or I'll send them some music. And tire listens and goes, yeah, I like this. I really like this. And then he'll put that on his playlist and that'll be and that will be a connection to the communication because what tie really loves. One of the things that I love is that feeling of being part of my heritage and my dad played this for me or my dad told me about this. And then what ty does then is to do the same for me. So I know you're like this. Have you heard of such and such? And it'll be somebody that I liked when I was 20 years old or something. And then we'll connect on that level, but it's a very, very different communication to our lows, but it's just as deep and it's just as valid, but it's entirely different. And if I was to switch and relate to time, like I do to other and relate to other, like I do to tie it, I would be completely disconnected from a couple of meltdowns going on there for sure. Yes. So you and I have run a parent support group. It has over a 180 parents, families, and we work with the families and with the children. That's been running for very long while. And over lockdown, you have run your weekly meeting online every single week for those parents. And I've been absolutely amazed and marvel at you and your consistency and the way that you love those parents is just wonderful. I love them too, by the way. But I love watching you talk to it to them. If there's parents of autistic children listening today or families of autistic children. What advice would you have? You know those parents when they join our group. What do they most need to hear? I think what most autistic superior will most parents of autistic children that join our group and need to hear is that they're not alone on this journey. I don't think that most people need parenting advice. Occasionally people will ask, look, this is a situation how would you approach this situation and ask the group? But generally, I mean, we're talking about super parents, parents who sacrifice everything and are willing to sacrifice everything. And by that, I'm not talking about money or material I'm talking about themselves. They're hopes aspirations, dreams, whatever they expected for themselves later on in life is just like that all of that gets put into a margin. That gets parked and everything is focused on the needs of their children. So what they need to hear generally is you're not alone on this journey. We've all walked this journey and so when you say something that to somebody else who isn't on this journey may sound outrageous about how you feel about what you're going through about how challenging or difficult or impossible you feel, how inadequate you feel to the task, it's fine to say it here because we've all felt it and we've all expressed it. And the other thing is having a space in your life where you can describe without having to explain, I think that so much energy is spent and wasted and exhausted by people feeling as though they have to explain their children. They have to explain their situation. They stand with a teacher. People say, wow, your child's your child's not that at all. Your child's like this. And they go, well, no, you don't know the whole picture. There is a different person at home to the one in school or the one not in school because they refuse to go into school. Or the one not sleeping because they're refused to go to bed or whatever. Just having a space where you can describe, but you don't have to explain because everybody else who is listening to you gets it. So is your advice that people link up with other parents? I think it's really important to do that. I think it's so important to do that because I think that in Albert Einstein said, if you measure the fish by how well it climbed a tree, you would think it was stupid. And quite often, all we get in terms of a metric for our own children is the yardstick of a kind of neurotypical world. And if the neurotypical world is the tree, our children may be the fastest swimmer in the ocean, but they're not going to climb the tree. So yes, I think it's really important to link up with other parents who are walking the same walk. Others who are in the same situation others who will be able to listen to you and not just sympathize and not just empathize but experientially understand. Yeah. No, I know for many of our families that we support theirs. There's quite a high percentage of their children and young people and we see this in the adults as well autistic adults might be struggling with their mental health, what have you learned about coming alongside our children in their mental health crises? Wow. I think I've learned more than anything that there's no quick fix. There are no easy answers and presents is everything. And that there's no guarantee that if you do a and B, you're going to get C that two and two are going to act a four. But what I do know is this that our children, even when they, we sometimes become The Rock against which they bash. And we feel bashed, but we're the only rocks they've got. And so the thing that I think is how important it is to be there and to listen and when possible to talk them down and when necessary to talk them up and also more than anything to also come alongside others so that we guard our own mental health. Because it's impossible to carry somebody if you're limping. You know, it's really so much harder. And yeah, our children's mental health is such a big deal. It's such a big deal. And it can turn on a sixpence. Everything can be going well. And then one thing, real or imagined, one thing can completely trans the picture. And so I think that most parents I know with autistic children live as such are a level of hyper vigilance that, if anything, yeah, do what you do and be there the way that you're there. But please remember your own mental health, remember your own need for support, remember your own need to be heard. Yeah, and to find voice. Just moving on to, I guess that thing of school and the workplace, how well or not well, our things set up for allowing our neurodivergent people to thrive. Wow. That's really interesting. It's an interesting question because the question in itself is it presupposes that any advanced society would recognize that there is more than one way of seeing the world and there is more than one way of thinking and therefore. An advanced society like ours would set things up that everybody, whatever that, not just the well-being of whether the neurological situation would be able to say, yeah, there's a space for me. There's a place for me. There's an opening for me. There's an acceptance of me. People are making the allowances I need made so that I can thrive, not just so that I can fit in and limp along, but so that I can thrive. But that doesn't really exist in any way like the number that it should. The number of employers who I think employers should be made to have a number of people who are on the autism spectrum, a number of people who have just had a neurodivergent. I think it's really important we get away from this cookie cutter one size fits all everyone has to look the same and replicate one another's strengths in order to fit in. And yeah, I suppose my answer so far suggests that I don't think that nearly enough is done. I don't think the nearly enough is being done. There's so much talent and there's so much ability there's so much intuition and knowledge and just being wasted being sidelined being overlooked being ignored. And if it wasn't overlooked, how much richer we'd be, the companies that actively seek out people on the spectrum because they have an attention to detail perhaps that others don't have or they have a skill set that I was specially interested, which means that they know their stuff almost as much as a PhD student would know just because they're taught themselves that kind of auto didactic skills that so many autistic people have, if only there was a recognition that these aren't just skills that come from a hobby. These are skills that become so deeply engraved. So knowledge based and so worthwhile that their valuable if we could find and be made to find ways to fully utilize the gifts and the talents that we have from people on the autism spectrum, the world would be a much richer place because so many of the things that enrich the modern world were devised or created developed or initiated by people on the autism spectrum. Yeah, which is exactly what all too kind of trying to do. That's absolutely you've just given their remit basically their davids. And we know that for Thailand, their workplace at hollyoaks has they've made all those kinds of adjustments four Thailand. So there is some good practice happening out there, isn't there, but there is. But probably not enough. And I do want to also about people even disclosing that they are artistic before they can even get to the needs that I might have. It is this sense of disclosure. How do we change perceptions out there, David? Gosh, I think that we change perceptions by I think drawing a line that delineates between our understanding of terminology and understanding that the term different and the term normal shouldn't actually be the opposite of one another. That your normal isn't my normal. And the your differences could complement my differences. The fact is that we've created an environment where two often people who are different in any way feel as though they have to underplay or deny their differences and create some kind of fake fake normal that fits with other people. And I don't think that that I don't think that that's right and I don't think it helps. But I can understand why. You know, somebody walked into a typical edition and started by saying, I'm autistic. They don't know they don't know the reaction they're going to get. They don't know whether the person sitting opposite is going to get, you know, yeah, fine. You almost want to go in and say, could you just tell me what you think is autistic looks like? Hear what they say and then
The Manic Pixie Weirdo
"albert einstein" Discussed on The Manic Pixie Weirdo
"What's higher than purpose? What do people mean when they say that? Well, they don't know if they say what's my higher purpose. They might say, is there a higher purpose? Well, I don't really know how people use that word. It's a very big word. If you get my drift. And I do think to a certain extent, it gets thrown around a bunch. In fact, every time I went to go look up what philosophers thought because it did get to a point where it, I don't know if you guys have noticed, but it did get to a point where I was unable to I was completely unable. To organize my thoughts and so I had to give my brain a break and go, look and see if anybody else had anything new to add on purpose. And as it turns out, there wasn't anything. There was a bunch of quotes that had the word purpose in it. But there was nothing that defined what purposes. And so that got us thinking, they probably didn't use the word purpose. And so that's where we started coming up with other words for purpose, which led us down the potential. Rabbit hole. And so again, another thing I noticed is that it begins to get incredibly circular. And it all starts to feed into each other. And so at one point, I started thinking, well, an atom kind of a thing. And it's ever changing. It's constantly changing. In shape and size and form in every and every way. And. Because I think it kind of has to be, it kind of has to have its own rhythm. It's. A concept much in the way that hope we're faith. Our concepts. And it's, you know. It's really difficult to come up with something that is universal. For a concept because it. Is kind of its own indefinable beauty. In it being something that is so undefinable because but people when people say that they have a higher purpose what they're saying is. What are they saying? That your purpose. Needs to be bigger than you? Or is bigger than you? Yes. I could see how that. See, and then I would, but see, I would argue that's true for everything. And so in order, if you were going to measure someone's purpose. You have to look at the effect that it has had on humanity. On a whole scale and it's got to be a continuous time scale. Yeah. Yeah. So we're back to math. I don't know you guys. This is, this is interesting. I would really love to know what you guys think about this. Am I just I mean, I might just be like, really deep in the weeds. And just not even nowhere close. To ground or anything. Tell me what you think. That would be great. Man, because we were to approach alcohol. Do that, let me know. Let me know how y'all are doing. With this. Because it's hard, oh my God, it's so hard. I'm trying to define something so indefinable that as I'm talking with you guys, sorry, I know there's long pauses, but I just like as I'm talking, I'm like getting overwhelmed with the weight and the well not the weight, the weight is not the right word. Just overwhelmed with the sheer size and volume, I guess that's what it is. It's the volume. Of it. Like this is a big word. And I don't think that people think of it as a big word. I don't know if we throw it around quite the way that we do like love or hatred. I'd say it's like moderately thrown around yeah, like on a scale of one to ten, it's like a four. It's not terrible, but we could do better. And I wonder where that is. I'm not entirely sure why that would be. I think it's something that we don't. We don't think about on a daily day basis on a daily day on a day to today basis. And so that might be why it's just not like commonly used. You know? There's like a very specific time and place that you would use the word purpose. You know what I'm saying? Like it's not, I can't really think of like in a day to day situation. Why anyone would need to use the word purpose? So it's just, I don't know if it's incredibly common, which the M begs the question why do we need it? As a word. Well to simplify things. So that people know what they mean. But no one knows what they mean. Because it means so many different things to so many different people. And because it's so subjective because I could look at like, okay, take someone like Albert Einstein, for example. I could sit here and tell you that I think that he led a purposeful life. He led a very purposeful life. And I think he was, I think he had purpose. I think he definitely had massive amounts of purpose. In his life now, an.

Be in that always curious state. Always be curious. Always want to know more. That's how I went down the rat. These rabbit holes is I would always wanted to know more. I'm like, what's this? What does this mean and why? Always keep asking why. And dig deeper. And that's where you're going to get answers. Because I'm a truth seeker, you know? We're living in a world with smoke and mirrors. You don't know what to believe these days. You don't know what's real. You read this thing and this guy says this and this other guy says this, your friend says this, the other friend says that nobody you don't know what to leave. You have to you have to dig deep and really do the investigation work yourself to understand. And so that's what I do. I have this relentless curiosity. Relentless curiosity. That's what I'm going to say. Hell yeah. Like that. Now let's transition to closing here. What is one piece of advice that you could leave our audience with that will change their lives right now and get them into a better state of mind? So we need to think, stop thinking of ourselves and we need to think of humanity as a whole as an interconnectedness. So we're all connected to each other. And what you do will affect the people around you and your immediate circle, think of life Eric humanity and concentric circles. So what you do affects your immediate inner circle. And that affects that outer circle. And it ripples like through a pond. So what you do is going to how do you want your children to be? How do you want your children? Think of how you want them to be. What's you are responsible for your next generations? How are we going to leave this world for our next generations? We need to consider that whether you have a daughter or a son or you don't have children yet, or if you don't, if you want to think of the children that are alive today, and what we're doing for them, what world are we going to leave them? Are we going to leave them chaos and destruction? Are we going to leave them love and the earth can be Paradise? This earth can be Paradise. I like that. Now.

I was a kid but we're telling them even though it sounds like we're trying to pump him up we're telling him hey you're wrong so it does lead to if we don't put out that vibe or message of you're wrong i don't believe you it gets us to that pillar three of the say.

In fact some of us even sent in some followups. Whoa who the guy who made out with a mormon and then she asked him should i. How do i ask out other guys. And he's like well. That was weird. Yeah that was weird so he says hey guys. I was stuck to hear that you answer my question last week. Listening to and. I took a pause to give you guys a follow up. It's been a couple of weeks the events previously discussed. I'm still no closer to getting any sort of clarity about our situation. We've hung out two or three more times since then. Never one on one. And we have a lot of mutual friends. So we have ended up at the same social gatherings. I expect it to be awkward. But it hasn't really. We've never brought up what happened and our friends don't know so. I just figured that she never really even thought of this going anywhere. That's okay. I guess but maybe i'll ask her one more out one more time before i call it quits. No do that seems perfect. Yeah i guess much like a lot of these questions like it's a big deal to you and the other person is completely oblivious that anything went wrong. Yeah definitely what does this mean. What did she do. Did you do that on purpose. And she's like. I don't remember who you entirely so i definitely don't know what i did how i did it. Yeah there's your look you're thinking of everything. You're reading too far into every single thing that i do and also assuming the you'll never know anything unless you ask so it's good that he's gonna ask her out one more time it might work I guess we deserve yet. Another follow-up we certainly do could you imagine two pups for the price of one that's how most pups are born. I think litter. Yeah oh that's true. Okay last question to rule them all these. Yes math nerd civil. Call this guy. You know a math nerd. The classics kurt einstein. It is i your smartest fan albert einstein. I'm a high school math teacher. Whose is reading and listening to your podcast. I started this year. And i'm honestly not one hundred percent. Sure i enjoy. It hurt year other cool. Another new fan. Yeah not really taking this year. So i see sorry all right cool never mind. Yeah yeah this teaching nice but some kids are obnoxious. little turds and the extra work is time consuming. Are there any other career options. Oh it's a woman. I'll call her albert einstein there any other career options for a woman with a bachelor's degree in math i'd love to consider a career without kids or such a heavy workload. Thanks for your advice on their from one math ner to another i believe you deserve the golden mike too late. He got the thirty episode for charting. Not once but twice on mike on air while we were live. While i was talking. Didn't chartres farted. I farted not into the mic away from the mic depicted on s. You definitely picked up the fucking computer. Mike picked it up. Yeah you're sensitive aspect put up believe that Okay so this lady went into teaching. And what did she doesn't like it. I guess you never really think about that. I just think of all teachers as heroes that like. It's a long hour and it's difficult work. But they love their job and that's why they do it because the pay is good. Yeah that's right. It's the highest pays highest paying job in america. Jesus christ teachers are heroes. But it's also if you don't want to do it because it is an insanely hard job so what's another year the math nerd. You're the fucking geek. What do you think is. There's so many jobs that rely a math. Yeah it's hard because it's like other than teaching what you learned. What job. If i studied biology and i have a degree in biology is a biologist. Occupation is a mathematician occupation or just learning as he you know i think if you have a passion for mathematics what about being aligned producer working with budgets and numbers. Oh i see yeah be. Accountant will not an account. Yeah but like a line. Producer actually works on tv shows and looks at the budgets and rates. And all that stuff. Yeah there's like you look at any field or any industry. There's something behind it. I think it's the money it's being money manager at school. Finance managing the finances of any sector.

She doesn't want to be teacher man. she doesn't want to be a high harper. Geyser kids are obnoxious. Little turds and like teenagers of the biggest turns like nine. Girls aren't as big of turds. Seventeen year olds right nine year. Olds i think in their own way. Yeah turds any. When i was in nine absolutely i was fine. Why don't you find a grade with the least amount of turds before calling it a career. I yeah i guess you could try another great.

Sometimes you wanna avoid it. Sometimes you know there's the the grace of moving someone not involved anymore. Bcc being like you don't have to be here for the coordination of anything. You've made an intro. i set you free. That's that's nice you free. Cc to the bcc. It's the i mean. It's an art to bump an old thread to to respond to something with inline comments.

I hope it meets your expectations. you've done a lot of you have probably heard it at least part of it but it's albert einstein and he says i think the most important question facing humanity is is the universe a friendly place. This is the first most basic question. All people must answer for themselves for if we decide that the universe is an unfriendly place than we will use our technology our scientific discoveries and our natural resources to achieve safety in power by creating bigger walls to keep out the unfriendliness and bigger weapons to destroy all that bat which is unfriendly. And i believe we are getting to a place. Where technology is powerful enough that we may either completely isolate or destroy ourselves as well in the process if we decide that the universe is neither friendly nor unfriendly and that god is essentially playing dice with the universe than we are simply victims to the random toss of the dice and our lives have no real purpose or meaning but if we decide that the universe is a friendly place than we will use our technology our scientific discoveries and our natural resources to create tools and models for understanding that universe because power and safety will come through understanding its workings in its motives. God does not play dice with the universe. It's great was a little obsessed with how quiet you are compared to me. Look i started talking to them so much louder you but that's beautiful and i guess the can that was lovely and this very morning this very morning i read an albert einstein quote this very morning wears it They're only two ways to live your life one is nothing is a miracle the other though everything is a miracle that sad this this guy's position but i but so you know you were talking about the first quote was kind of not burden. Yeah save the do the first quote again. because i'm starting to lose the the difference between the two and i think it is an interesting way. This is very af. Oh yeah like it. No despair of ours can alter the reality of things nor stain the joy of the cosmic dance which is always there. Yeah so okay. So the contradiction. That i heard is basically to me this. The einstein quote is saying what i have personally found to be true as well. Which is it's your perception like reality is your perception and if you have decided that you're absolutely right. Sorry keep going. Yeah that it's unfriendly than than you will create tides. That's sort of like. I'm saying on the on the cam. This morning i started to create an a universe that needs to be argued with And needs to be like pushed away. And all that sort of stuff. Which i guess at times.

You can borrow up to fifty percent of your vested. 401k ballons or fifty thousand dollars. Whichever is less if you're vested balance is less than twenty thousand dollars. You can borrow any amount up to ten grand vested means you own it for employer matching funds that can take up to five years you are immediately vested in all funds that you put into the plan interest payments one of the unique features of a 401k. Loan is that you pay interest to yourself when you borrow money such as a home mortgage or an auto loan. The interest is paid to the lender when you borrow money from your 401k. You are the lender all interest paid comes right back to you and goes into your 401k account. Awesome right not so fast. Opportunity cost in the financial world. There's a concept known as opportunity costs opportunity. Costs is the loss of potential gain when one alternative is chosen over another in other words. It's what you would have received. Had you done something other than what you did. For example if back in the year two thousand you bought a carton of cigarettes instead of investing the money and amazon. The opportunity cost is sixteen hundred dollars what that can't be right. A carton of cigarettes today is about seventy five dollars adjusted for two percent annual inflation in two thousand. It costs fifty dollars in two thousand one share of amazon stock. Cost one hundred dollars today. It's worth thirty two hundred dollars when you borrow money from your 401k.

What are the things that just it genuinely has amazed me since i was a kid that without ever having gone into space and without ever really peering through telescopes sensing the universe in nineteen sixteen. Albert einstein came up with the theory of relativity and he continues to be proven right. He sold all in his head. Astronomers for the very first time have now seen light from behind the black hole what einstein theorized is that gravity because of the the force regret it could been light and you can't see light from behind the black hole because a black hole absorbs everything except black hole become so gravity dense it becomes such a dense mass that it has the power to bend light around it far enough away as light sales past and scientists have finally been able to see this using a space telescope. They've observed a black hole as it flung rays out into the universe. It's ten million times more. Massive than the sun is located at the center of a nearby spiral galaxy. A thousand eight hundred million light years away from earth and after seeing the flares of the x rays which is not uncommon. They saw something that is unprecedented flashes. That were smaller and different colors than the predecessors meaning it couldn't have been rays it light from an object on the other side behind the galaxy that we can't actually see except been around the black hole. That's the only way to have seen the light as the way it came The the gravitational forces are so strong light can escape it but like it echo around the back of it. Albert einstein without ever having been in space without ever having to space telescope without ever spending a lot of time staring into telescopes in nineteen sixteen came up with the theory of relativity. And how light would respond to space time and gravity and is all these years later continuing to be proven right about. I'm just fascinated by the mind. Albert einstein And and yet again another observation. That proves him right just amazing..

Light From Behind a Black Hole Spotted for 1st Time, Proving Einstein Right
"Of researchers has proven Albert Einstein was right about black holes. His theory of relativity predicted in 1915 that it should be possible to see lightwaves ejected from the far side of the black hole because of distorted magnetic fields, acting as a mirror. Astronomers used high powered X ray telescopes to study a supermassive black hole 800 million light years away and say they spotted light in the form of X rays being emitted by the far side of the black hole. The findings are published in the journal Nature.

Astronomers Find 2 Black Holes Gulping City-Size Neutron Stars
"Eating another. For the first time ever. They've seen a black hole, gobbling a neutron star. NPR's Nell Greenfield Boys reports on how scientists were able to spy on this cosmic snack. Black holes are famous for their gravitational pull, which nothing not even light can escape. And then there's neutron stars. Neutron stars are very weird. Maya Fishback is an astronomer at Northwestern University. She says Neutron stars are made of protons and neutrons, the stuff you find inside atoms. But they're crushed together into a shockingly dense fear that's heavier than our sun and can comfortably fit within the city of Chicago. Now, scientists say they've caught a black hole, eating a neutron star in one giant gulp. And then 10. Days later, they saw another black hole. Do the same thing for these particular systems. The neutron star would have just plunged into the black hole without Admitting any light. If all this gnashing didn't put out detectable light, then how did researchers spotted by sensing gravitational waves? Those are the ripples in spacetime created by powerful violent events out in the universe. Gravitational waves were predicted to exist by Albert Einstein over a century ago, but not detected until 2015 Chase. Kimball is a graduate student at Northwestern, he says, the ability to register gravitational waves has been a game changer for astronomy. So it's like, you know, flipping the sound on on a silent movie or something like that. Where we previously just been watching the universe, and now we can listen to it through this gravitational waves. In this case, the black holes gobbling neutron stars generated gravitational waves that took about a billion years to reach Earth. In January of 2020. The waves triggered three giant

No one said albert einstein yet and he certainly has helped decided as a whole so very good answer. The question number three is what books are you reading now or have read that you've loved in recommend one of the best books that i've read is five languages of fluff and not just because of love and love relationships but you put in a little bit of filter you can use that all across any communication interaction with other human being psychic friends with business partners employees and actually make every company that i work with the whole company. Read that book in the next year it because a you get to understand yourself who you are watching stands for how you understand. What are your languages of love or being appreciated and so on and then you also understand how to communicate that others how to get how other understands than than we can actually will be a human being because austin we do to others what you want others to do to us but that might not be what they eat and they're doing the same to us and a lot of confusion. A lot of understanding comes from that. So that's one of the book that really affected my lights a lot and the second one is while.

Things can't escape from People seem to have the basics out there right that their dense, they're dark and things can't escape from them, right. But nobody named you what's inside of one. That's right. Nobody could tell us what was inside a black hole. Apparently, just walking around in the street isn't the best way to get a solid scientific accomplishment, But anyways, a black hole, so I guess you know, before we talk about what's inside a black hole, we should still recap. What is a black hole? Yeah. What is a black hole? Black holes are sort of fascinating ideas because for a long time, people thought black holes were just sort of like a mathematical curiosity like that kind of thing that you see in an equation that then if you believe that equation described to reality than its suggest black holes might exist. This kind of thing that makes you wonder. Is this really true? Or just so sort of, like a weird feature the equation? Something people are not gonna actually discover what I mean. This is the origin of the idea of black hole. Think it was Actually Yuri First wasn't observed there anything. Exactly the idea of black holes came from general relativity. And there wasn't observed for decades later. In fact, Albert Einstein thought black holes would never be seen. He thought they didn't really exist, even though his theory predicted them whether the theory predict Einstein's basic idea is that gravity is not a force, like other forces, things that pull and push on each other, like electromagnetism and the weak force. He thought gravity instead was just a bending of space time that his idea was any mass. Which is sort of been space. So imagine like a rubber sheet spaces. That rubber sheet you put something big and heavy on. It bends things down. Now, If you want a marble Erol marvel across that sheet instead of just going flat across the sheet.

It's that the most direct path is now curved with respect to your previous path, and that's a tricky concept for people to understand that it's the bending of space on and it's a sort of intrinsic bending.

"So space is the squishy thing they were living in. It's not like Big vacuum or an empty warehouse. It's like this squishy thing, and it's been squished by things that are heavy and they can affect how far things are apart from each other. So now a ripple is like what is that then? Like a ripple on water. Is it similar to like a ripple like ever? Fish is a ripple gravitation wave like a ripple in the water. You know, like there's an explosion underwater. If you would feel that sort of shock wave. That's exactly what it is. Yeah. And so if you have to really heavy objects, for example, spinning around each other or one really massive object that's accelerated. The gravitational field from that object is going to change really quickly right. So imagine a static objects is a gravitational field around it. If that object accelerates removes, really, it's velocities changed really quickly. In the gravitational field itself is going to change and the wiggle in the field caused by the acceleration of that object is a ripple right. It's going to travel through space outwards from that object. Imagine you take like a rock. It has a gravitational field. Iraq is gonna be bending space around it. And then if you move that wrong, something far away is not gonna notice instantaneously that you move the rock. It can't tell that the gravity has changed it. The information about the rock moving travels at the speed of light house. Even gravity can only move at the speed of light. That's right. Everything in the universe that carries information Can only move at the speed of light or slower And so, for example, say the sun disappeared. Magically the Earth would notice for eight minutes. What? Because that's how long it takes for light from the sun and for the gravity from the sun to reach us. So the path of the earth wouldn't be affected for eight minutes, So there'd be eight minutes where there was no sign, but the earth would just keep going. Like, Hey, we wouldn't see it gone either, right? Because the light would also take eight minutes to get here. That's right. The sun could have disappeared five minutes ago. We would have no idea Don't rush outside. Look at the sun. Everybody, Please don't know I'm scared, Daniel. Anyway, that scenario, there's nothing you can do in that scenario, so there's no point in preparing for it. But the point is that the gravitational information moves through space, the same speed everything else does. And so something is changing really quickly than that, Like increasing gravity decreasing Garrity would sort of travel would take a while to get to me, and I would see that as kind of a wave. Like a ripple. Yeah, Exactly. Imagine somebody's turning the sun on and off it existed disappears, it existed disappears. Then the gravitational field of the sun. This bending of space is going to disappear and then snap back and disappear in snap back. What we would theater on Earth is gravity turning on and off and on and off, And those would be enormous ripples in a gravitational field. Yeah. Wow. Well, I think what's cool is that you know, everyone talks about it like it. Has to be like two black holes or something huge, massive, but it's really like everything generates gravitational ways. Like you and I if I move my arms back and forth I'm generating gravitational waves. That's right on you happen to be a very magnetic person or gravitational person. So I sense those waves from you or him. Glad you didn't say heavy. Thank you Know, I was about to say that I was trying to steer clear of it. Yeah, You're right. Everything that has mass bends space and anything that has mass and is accelerated will be generating gravitational waves. But the thing for people to remember is that gravity's super duper crazy, ridiculously weak. Which is why, for example, If you're sitting next to somebody to train you don't feel a literal gravitational force between you. There is one there. But you can't even sense it because it's so tiny compared to gravitational force of you in the earth, no matter how attractive that person is, That's right. You might be feeling other forces and, you know, feel free to act on that or not, not to you. There's no physics advice about whether or not to approach people on the train. Your point is correct. Everything is generating gravitational waves that has mass and is accelerating. Right, But they're so weak. Yeah. You need something really, really huge in order to be able to take them. Okay. Well, let's talk about how we even came up with this idea of a gravitational wave right? Who sits around thinking. Hey, I wonder if Ripple if gravity and space time itself can generate waves. Well, your first guess I'd probably be right in that case, because the first person to think about that was Albert Einstein. Right? Everybody's go to scientists in this case is exactly right. He came up with this theory of general relativity. And the core idea in that theory is that gravity is not a force but a bending of space. And so a very natural consequence of his theory was that if things accelerate that it would make these ripples in the bending of space, and those ripples he called gravitational waves 00. I see. It's like once you come up with the idea that space can bend And that and that Also, this information about space bending can travel faster than light. Then you're naturally are left with the idea that you can have these waves traveling through space for gravity. Yeah, exactly. But a funny wrinkle in the story or ripple in the story, If you like, is that Einstein he thought about these things. It's sort of a theoretical possibility or an abstract idea, but he think, he wrote in his paper. He's like Said. But we could never discover these because they're too small. Even Einstein, who predicted these things thought it would be impossible for us to ever detect them, which is like even more kudos to the experimentalists or proving Einstein wrong by proving him, right. Wow. So even Einstein didn't think that it would be possible to measure these, but they've done it. They did it a couple years ago. Yeah, and you know, there's one way in which I personally agree, But Einstein because I remember when I was choosing where to go for graduate school. I was visiting various institutions and thinking about what physics they were doing, and I went to Caltech and Caltech is one of the leading institutions on Lego, and I was actually got to talk to one of the leading scientists on it At the time. He was telling me about about this project, and I thought, Wow, this sounds cool, but really hard and basically impossible, and.

Black holes are sort of fascinating ideas because for a long time, people thought black holes were just sort of like a mathematical curiosity like Kind of thing that you see in an equation that then if you believe that equation described to reality than its suggest black holes might exist, But it's kind of thing that makes you wonder. Is this really true? Or just a sort of like a weird feature the equation, something People are not gonna actually discover what do you mean they visit the origin of the idea of black hole Think it was actually a theory first wasn't observed or anything. Exactly. The idea of black holes came from general relativity. And there wasn't observed for decades later. In fact, Albert Einstein thought black holes would never be seen. You thought they didn't really exist, even though his theory predicted them whether the theory predict Einstein's basic idea is that gravity is not a force, like other forces, things that pull and push on each other, like electromagnetism and the weak force. He thought gravity instead was just a bending of space time that his idea was any mass. Which is sort of been space. Imagine like a rubber sheet spaces. That rubber sheet you put something big and heavy on. It bends things down. Now, if you want a marble, your role of marvel across that sheet said, just going flat across the sheet. If it encounters someplace where she has been, it's going to change its path of the Marvel thinks it's going straight. It actually like the rubber. It's it's on is curved. That's right. It's that the most direct path is now curved with respect to your previous path, and that's a tricky concept for people to understand that it's the bending of space on and it's a sort of intrinsic bending. It changes the natural straight lines, but I love how you say the marble thinks it's going straight. Like You have this tendency to answer more fires Everything like we're talking about that last time. This case like the marble hasn't opinion like, Hey, man, I'm going straight. I don't care with space says everything's that cartoon cartoon is I imagine that you look at the world and see little cartoon. Thoughtful, bizarre everything That's my world view. So we were talking about very heavy objects to the idea is very heavy Masses Bend space right there, Ben space that when you move through space, and it moving through a curved path, right.

The US needs a radical revolution of values
"Five years my father was assassinated and he did change the world but the tragedy is that we didn't hear what he was saying to us as a prophet to his this nation in his words river. Reverberating back to us change. We all know is necessary right now. It's not easy. But i wanna talk about america's choice and a greater level. The prophet said to us. We still have a choice today. Nonviolent coexistence or violent coalition literally in the streets of our nation people who have been following the path non violent protests and people who have been hailed bent on destruction. Those choices are now at us and we have to make a choice. History of this nation was founded in violets. My father said america is the greatest purveyor of violence and the only way forward is if we repent for being a nation built on violence. And i'm not just talking about physical violence. I'm talking about systemic violence. I'm talking about policy. Violence i'm talking about what he spoke of the triple eagles of poverty. Racism and militarism all violent albert einstein. Stein said something to us. You said we cannot solve problems on the same level of thinking in which they were created and so if we are going to move forward we are going to have to deconstruct these systems of violence that we have seven america. And we're going to have to reconstruct on a not a foundation that foundation happens to be love and nonviolence and saw as we move forward weaken correct course if we make better choice that daddy said nonviolent coexistence and that continue on the pathway of violent cornell elation does that look like that that looks like some deconstruction work in order to get to the construction. We have to deconstruct are thinking. We've got to deconstruct the way in which we see people and deconstruct the way in which we operate practice and engage in policy and so i believe that there's a lot of heart a t. a. r. to work to do in the midst of all the h. a. r. d. hard work to do because heart work is hard work. One of the things we have to do is we have to ensure that everyone especially my white brothers and sisters after engaged in bihar work. The anti racism work in our hearts zapped from this especially in my white community. We must do that work in our hearts the anti racism work. The second thing is that. I encourage people to look at but mom violence training that we the kings of the kingston about or so that we learned the foundation of understanding our interrelatedness and interconnectedness. That we understand our loyalties and commitments and our policy-making can no longer be devoted to one group of people but has to be devoted to the the greater good of all people we all have to change and have to make a choice. It is a choice to change the direction that we have been going. We need a revolution of values in this country. That's what my daddy said you changed the world change hearts and now what has happened over the last seven eight years history. We have to change course and we all have to participate in changing america with a true revolution values where people are at the center and not profit. When morality is at the center and that our military might america does have a choice. We can even choose to go down. Continually that path of destruction or we can choose nonviolent coexistence and as my mother said struggle is a never ending process. Freedom is never really one in every generation

"But real genuine feeling that just I'm So lucky to be in this position. Where, um, you know, I get to get to engage myself creatively. I get Tonto, lead a team and then build people the type of people I want around me. There's so many people you talk to you outside of the entrepreneurship world who know their biggest complaints are, you know they don't have a say or they feel like they're not learning anything. Or you know that. You know, you spend all your life and work. You know the state What Who you work with and where you spent 20 years doing someone else's asked. You're left with And you don't even and a lot of them. You know, as you get only feel like I'm not. You know it. Zaveri rarely, you know, the biggest complaints aside from the essentials is I just if I had just made more money, I'd be happy is what you really here is Like I just feel like no one listens to my ideas or that just the people I work with are idiots. How many times you hear that or your balls? I hate my boss or there's so much office drama and I get to be in control like the fact that all starts and ends with May. I feel so lucky about it and all the things that allowed me to do this that it's really easy to contracted to get passionate about it again. When you realize like I'm in such No, You know such a position that so few people get to be in that it's easier than to replace the passion replace the feeling sorry for yourself for getting stressed out with motivation and passion I find when we play the comparison game, it expires us or inspires us. But a lot of times you know, we do get to focus on her career to focus on our life, too focused on Some of the external factors and circumstances and environments that were in currently two polar head up and be like Wow, in the last three years, five years in 10 years I've come so far and three years, five years in 10 years ago, I big for the problems. Yeah, I've been trust situation that I have now and it helps to remind ourselves for me Now I like it's not. I was I was gonna put like a number factor on it. But I'll be like mad some months when I When I won't hit a certain goal. I'll be like, Oh, man, you know, I was so close to getting tow X number and personal income. And then I'm like I'm really feeling bad about that. I know And I'm like, three years ago. I would love to have made that in a year and now I'm mad. And so it's just crazy. How like Albert Einstein says Law of relativity, Just dying on How you look at the same thing is going to determine how you feel about it. There's two interesting things in there what you just said. Number one. The importance of goals because you can't just feel I'm so lucky. I don't you need to balance that with hitting goals like setting goals is so important because it's what drives you forward and But like you said, it's all relative. So I really do believe in the However, the saying the adage where you're the average of the five people who spend most time with which I just heard that said, it's absolutely true that if you surround yourself with people you want to be in five years. Suddenly, the things that would make you look sergeant why I'm making good money money in a year. Whether it's money or position or health or whatever it is, It's really important that you put yourself in a situation where you're kind of Hitting above your weight class, because that's going to motivate you to. It's gonna because the downside of not doing that is ah, full sense of. I'm doing just fine. Let's shift gears real quick talk about sales and marketing. How are you guys actually going out?

The Pandemic Behind The Pandemic
"This episode, we're going to be talking about the most pressing issue of our time, and there's a statement that you cannot solve a problem that you don't understand. You cannot solve a problem that you don't understand and to take that a step further, you cannot solve a problem you don't know you have. Right now we're dealing with a worldwide pandemic and there are many pieces of this situation that are not being analyzed. It's such a broad wide ranging issue with many components and today when a break some of those things down in a reminded me of a statement and this was published in the journal Invention intelligence referring to Albert. Einstein. Stating that quote often the problem as given is misleading. And you have to work through a mass of data to define the real problem. Often this step consumes more time than deriving the solution. Einstein was quoted to have said if I were given an hour in which to do a problem upon which my life depended. I would spend forty of those minutes studying the problem fifteen minutes reviewing the problem. And just five minutes solving it. So today we're going to get a better understanding of the underlying problem the pandemic behind the pandemic. and. This starts for me with the report that I talked about back in April when this situation really began to kick off and it really was alarming and I wanted to make sure that people knew about this data. Now, here in the US, we had early access to some data because several other countries had experienced the ramifications of covid nineteen being spread throughout the population most notably Italy was really hit the hardest and their data really gave us an opportunity to be aware of our. Underlying susceptibility. To, Cope in nineteen to infectious diseases of really all types but specifically and looking at the data with covid nineteen after thousands of people lost their lives. The Scientific Advisor to Italy's Minister of Health stated that quote on re evaluation by the National Institute of Health only twelve percent of the death certificates have shown a direct causality from corona virus alone. While eighty eight percent of patients who have died have at least one pre morbidity in many times two or three. Pre existing chronic diseases that have become absolute pandemics in our today themselves have really left susceptible. And we had this data and even take it a step further and I talked about this the very beginning of the pandemic. This was published the Journal of the American Medical Association in April. This was back in April. This analyze data hospitalized Kobe nineteen patients in New, York City, which was really the epicenter of a lot of the the turmoil, the fallout. In an covered that already approximately ninety percent of people having severe reactions to Kobe nineteen or those with pre existing chronic diseases with the most common co morbidity is being hypertension, obesity and diabetes. And now in the real reason that this show is happening today, the just published a report. Updated on September thirtieth twenty. Twenty. Reiterated with the data has been showing us from the very beginning their official report stated that ninety four percent of the lives loss from covid nineteen. When people who had additional diseases they stated that for each death noted to be related to cope nineteen, there were on average two point, six additional conditions or causes for each death. Most notably type two diabetes and hypertension. This is not to say that covid nineteen has not been absolute destructive force. In our society. This is to say. That, these chronic diseases loaded the gun. In Cova nineteen pulled the trigger. Our susceptibility. Our underlying pre existing health conditions as a society sets up when I saw that data coming out of Italy, I was like all we're in trouble. We're in trouble here in the United States we're in trouble. And this is why today we're going to take a deep dive and really look at this issue we're going to get a face to face good look in the mirror at the issues that are underlying. So many of the problems experiencing. As. A culture, we cannot turn a blind eye to this stuff anymore. This is our opportunity to change things right now but we need to get face to face with this problem and we need to understand truly how bad it is in all the different components so that we can come to a solution because as Albert. Einstein. And by the way with all the quotes that might come from Albert Einstein or from Abraham Lincoln or whatever we don't know who said it whoever did is pretty SMART But in that statement of like if you've got. An hour for problem spending forty minutes on the problem itself studying the problem looking at all angles of it then reviewing your study of that problem. Right and then you spending five minutes on solution this because the solution will be much more effective. Much more poignant. When. You actually understand what you're trying to do. You actually understand the problem.

Nobel Prize in Physics Awarded to 3 Scientists for Work on Black Holes
"Next came the physics. It's winners can boast they share an honor with Albert Einstein and Marine Pierre Curie Alex, tell us about this year's winners. So there are three winners this year for the Physics Prize. Goes to Suraj, penrose, who's a physicist and mathematician? He's one of the most prominent scientists in the UK. He's almost ninety years old. He's a permanent and everything from very mathematics to cosmology to material science. He writes puzzles. He's he's a real polymath genius and it's about time he wanted to Nobel prize. The other half of the Nobel prize goes to you Andrea Gez who is a professor of Astro Physics at the University of California Los Angeles and Heart Kansal he's an astrophysicist at. The University of California Berkeley and together the three of them win full increasing understanding of black holes. So Roger Penrose created some mathematical tools in the sixties that built on Albert. Einstein's general relativity the theory of gravity in the universe and several Japan rose created a way of using general relativity to predict black holes in the universe. So how they might actually form and then Andrea gas and reinhard denzil independently lead teams starting in the nineteen ninety s to track the orbits of Stars. Around. Sort of an object that sits in the middle of the Milky Way, our home galaxy, and there they were attempting to show that the object at the middle of Galaxy was indeed a black hole and they proved that with over twenty years of measurements
Your Brain on Facts
Having the Last Word
"I am about to or I am going to die either expression is correct. These were the last words of seventeenth century, French, Jesuit, priest grammarian, and man after my own Heart Dominique Boehner. Narrowly, edged out by eighteenth century French Aristocrat who declared I see you have made three spelling mistakes. As. He read over his own death warrant. We assign a lot of significance to last words hoping that we'll leave some deep philosophical epitaph or something funny like what's this button do? But you may end up with last words like American author, Henry David Thoreau who simply said Moose. Indian. My Name's Moxy and this is your brain on facts. Many people think Irish playwright and poet Oscar Wilde's last words were either this wallpaper goes or I do. That would be typical wild but there are two small factual inaccuracies in this retelling. The actual quote is this wallpaper and I are a duel to the death either it goes or I do. And he said that a few weeks before he died. Oscar Wilde's actual last words were a mumbled prayer. He did also say toward the end of his life as he lay in bed sipping champagne I am dying beyond my means. With about a third of the world being Christian it's not surprising that God gets mentioned a fair amount. As the clock was winding down for one of the baddest. Of Golden Age Hollywood Cancer Stricken Joan Crawford her housekeeper began to pray aloud at her bedside. Crawford summoned her remaining strength and said, don't you dare ask God to help me.

The priest implored him to renounce the devil voltaire considered his advice but decided this is no time to be making new enemies. German romantic behind took a different view as he lay dying of tertiary syphilis. God will forgive me. He said that's his job. A quick tangent while the dead have been in our collective fears and folklore since the caveman days, our modern interpretation of Sambas is strongly influenced by the ravages syphilis. Its Body count his paltry when compared with things like the black death. But the five million people at killed in the Fifteenth Century alone definitely qualify for epidemic status. Syphilis comes in distinct stages. Primary Syphilis is characterized by painless sores on the genitals or mouth, which typically heal on their own. The second stage usually presents with a rash and fever. These resolve and the disease enters the latent stage which can last for years. You're not infectious in the latent stage, but the bacteria may still be damaging your heart bones, nerves, and brain. People would think they were no longer sick which was just as well since there was no cure anyway. Tertiary Syphilis the third stage. The skin may be covered by growths that break down into lesions that spread unchecked. The disease can away bone and caused tremendous pain. Sufferers could also experience numbness and difficulty with motor functions, vision problems leading to blindness and dementia. which combined left people shambling down cobblestone streets with their faces routing off.

Will Save, the debate for the spread of syphilis whether it started in North America or Europe for another day. We have these last words because someone was there here in record them. Sadly, that wasn't the case with Albert. Einstein one of the greatest scientific minds in history. He was not alone in the room when he passed away but he understandably spoke his final words in his mother tongue and the nurse that was attending him didn't speak German. Perhaps his final wish was something along the lines of don't let anyone steal my brain and keep it in their desk for years.

Time Travel Theoretically Possible Without Leading To Paradoxes, Researchers Say
"An undergraduate at the University of Queensland has apparently proven that time travel without paradoxes is possible. This is from a new paper published last week in the journal classical and quantum gravity by the student Germane to bar and his professor Fabio Kosta quoting popular mechanics. The math itself is complex, but it boils down to something fairly simple time travel discussion focuses on closed time like curves or CTC's something Albert Einstein I posited until Barton cost say that as long as. Just two pieces of an entire scenario within a C. T. C. or still in causal order when you leave the rest is subject to local free will I results show that C. T. C.'s are not only compatible with determinism and with the local free choice of operations but also with a rich and diverse range of scenarios in dynamical processes, their paper concludes end quote. In other words stepping on a butterfly during a dinosaur hunting expedition would not entirely change the present world returned to and the way Mardi MC fly prevented his parents from meeting or accidentally left behind a sports ALMANAC for biff defined would not drastically change his present reality either. Instead, the mathematical research shows that time travel would be more akin to vendors endgame something that matches the findings from Los, Alamos Laboratory earlier this summer. Side No. Los. Alamos is also one of the few labs messing around with plutonium. So All I'm saying is if you see a delorean cruising around New Mexico, maybe watch out. But essentially, the findings say that you can go back to the past and mess with things a little bit but it will basically smooth over and eventually lead to the same results preventing things like the grandfather paradox in which you go back in time, kill your own grandfather, and then prevent yourself the time traveller from ever existing. To Warren constant used relevant example from our present time to put their complex math into plain language quoting a press statement by the researchers say you traveled in time in an attempt to stop covid nineteen patient zero from being exposed to the virus? However, if you stopped that individual from becoming infected that would eliminate the motivation for you to go back and stop the pandemic in the first place this is a paradox been inconsistency that often leads people to think that time travel cannot occur in our universe. Logically, it's hard to accept because that would affect our freedom to make any arbitrary action. It would mean you can time travel. You cannot do anything that would cause a paradox to occur. In the coronavirus patient zero example, you might try and stop patient zero from becoming infected, but in doing so you would catch the virus and would become patient zero or someone else would no matter what you did. The salient events would just recalibrate around you try. As you might to create a paradox, the events will always adjust themselves to avoid any inconsistency end quotes. So our timelines are a bit more self-correcting than we thought and trying to adjust the time line. We're currently living in to go back to one where perhaps a different person won an election and the berinstain bears are still the Bernstein bears probably isn't going to happen. As NPR quoted from Stephen, King's time travel novel eleven twenty to sixty three about trying to prevent the Kennedy assassination quotes. The past is obdurate. It doesn't want to be changed.
