Millions of years of material development.
Then intellect, organic intellect, hybrid intellect, inorganic intellect.
Why?
To further the process of material development perhaps.
Why?
Chance or purpose?

The U.S. may have two dominant political parties with die hard supporters.
But fortunately, the U.S. still has a dominant moderate core of voters, who usually decide the outcome of elections.

Nope, I suggested that a man masquerading as the son of a fantasy GOD probably existed some 2000 years ago. A man that latterly became widely attributed with the name of Jesus.
And I also suggested that this Jesus character was said to have been the son of a human virgin female and a misogynistic fantasy rapist.
If I suggested that GOD was blue, you would no doubt say that I was agreeing that GOD was yellow. Such is your methodology.

That's the trouble with attempting to define U.S society, as fitting neatly into two camps.
Which it doesn't of course.

Well, I don't struggle.
And in the truest definition of the word, I am atheist.
Though I might loosely be regarded as having some deistic type data on board. But not in the magical mystery man sense of the word.
As for the character popularly referred to as Jesus, I think that I have already stated to you that I think it highly likely to have been based upon a real human being. But was he the son of a GOD that raped a virgin, I doubt it very much. Hence, we have tales of mystery men, embellished with misogynistic fantasy. In short, a mythology.
Ascension into modernity is certainly a dramatic turn of phrase, but only really means spreading and becoming popular relative to intellectual and social development. Though I'm not sure how well misogyny and rape ascend into Western modernity. But I suppose if you drum this stuff into children's heads soon enough, they will grow up accepting it as acceptable.
Nonetheless, people are still searching for something that cannot be found, and so are still heavily reliant upon fantasy hypotheses.

Just a wack-job.
Not much more to say about the man.
But further to the man, one could add that Trumpism will inevitably attract wack-jobs.
Which sort of proves the point, that stupidity attracts stupidity and common sense attracts common sense.
And further, proves the point that Trump was/isn't overly sensible in his approach to the Presidency of the United States of America.
The term United States of America should be indicative of the need for inclusivity and rationality. Rather than social division and incitement to riot.

Yep, there's common sense.
Which is what my first-hand experience is based upon.
Like I stated.
1. There are the genuinely ill. Who will stop at home and ask a friend or relative to collect meds for them.
2. There are the generally healthy, who try and avoid using medical intervention whenever possible
3. And then there are those who are always at the counter with some issue or another. And if they know about brain fog, they will have it as sure as eggs is eggs.
Just saying that people are predictable, and it's quite easy to tell who is genuine and who isn't.
Of course, there are a plethora of other lifestyle factors that lead to a poor state of mental motivation.
1. Stress and associated anxiety relative to the pressures of social conformity.
2. Poor physical health relative to a lack of fitness.
3. Poor physical health relative to dietary choices.
4. Poor physical health relative to substance and alcohol abuse.
To name but four.

I would suggest that there a lot of younger people who already spend a lot of their time in a technological virtual world.
We do this stuff, and it becomes the norm, and we carry on as if nothing has changed.

As I said, there are the genuinely ill.
And there are post-covid symptons for sure. Including what is loosely referred to as brain fog.
And contagions abound, no doubt about that. Some affect us more severely than others.
And then there are group 2 as described who turn up in the pharmacy week in and week out, and you can bet your bottom dollar that they will all probably suffer from brain fog.
Though it really is in only the last few months that brain fog has become a symptom over here, perhaps we caught it from the USA.

Some will be L, some will be G, some will be B, and some will be T and some might even be Q.
And some might even be pretty basic (just boring old penis vagina activity, perhaps a bit of anal and BDSM) but nonetheless deluded by Tales from Arabia.

If people feel intimidated by LGBT, they obviously think about it too much.
Which is usually the way that it works.
The most perverse of thought, are those that continually worry about what other people get up to.
My advice to them is go chat to some imaginary GOD and stop obsessing about other people's penis and vagina activity.
Or pop to some degenerate backwater somewhere and stone a woman to death, perhaps that will relieve their sexual angst.

I work in a pharmacy.
And a big medical problem these days is self-diagnosis (often leading to hypochondria), which the health service encourages in order to cut costs.
So, put it out there that brain fog is a symptom, and some people will very soon be phoning in with brain fog.
And consequent over prescribing by GP's is also an issue. Job done box ticked.
But there's no chemical substitute for a healthy lifestyle and PMA.
You can make a general separation of people into three camps.
1. The genuinely ill
2. The I enjoy being seen to be ill, and I also enjoy and expect sympathy.
3. The stop fussing I'm fine it's just a sniffle.

Yep, knocking balls about with bits of wood or kicking bags of wind around.
The things people do to pass the time of day. And even more stupid is that people will get excited just standing around watching.
No hunter gathering these days you see, just pop down to Aldi or Tesco.
Don't think I saw full sized goal posts or a proper cricket pitch until I was 11 and went to big school.
Big school was daunting enough.
Sheltered rural upbringing you see.
And then there was the freezing cold outdoor swimming pool.
10 feet at the deep end, and the shallow end was up to your chest.

Same old nonsense/system really
Whereby sentient organic blobs exist for a universal nanosecond upon a tiny spec of universal dust.
And within that brief moment they assume that concepts matter.
Which well they might of course, but on the other hand they of course might not.
There again, if we were a collection of altruistically cooperative blobs, we could do away with money altogether.
And do away with the need for concepts such as spiralling inflation.
Though does inflation actually need to spiral, can't it just inflate.
Though at the very very end, I propose that everything will deflate very very quickly.
No downward spiralling necessary.

Countries are generally inert land masses with phoney borders.
It's people who fail to concur on what bit of ideological nonsense is best.
And who then go on to decimate and pillage and do all that decimation and pillage involves.
Muslim, Christian, Hindu, Jew, Iranian, American, Indian, Israeli.
Countries are awash with clever stupid people.
Or is it stupid clever people?

It's almost as if you are speaking from experience.
Nonetheless, expecting virile men to be celibate is a bit like asking a bee not to buzz.
And if one expects a virile man not to masturbate then one might as well hit one's head against a brick wall.
It's called sex drive and though basically for the purposes of procreation, humans have developed alternative methods for recreational satisfaction.
And religion is essentially pseudo- hypothetical bollocks.
Wherein some theists think that religion should preside over sexuality.
But sexuality says up yours.
And so, a lot of theists are consequently extremely hypocritical.

Planetary appearance depends upon the point of view of the observer.
Though a perfect sphere would have a flat surface. Wherever it was viewed from.
What you are referring to is a disc like object as opposed to a spherical object.
And the two main problems with a disc, are the edge and the underneath.
And because these problems never present themselves, it is therefore safe to say with all certainty that the Earth is a spherical object.
As I stated, Disc World relies upon an infinite conspiracy and human silliness.
And just take a look at facebook and you will see how silly some people like to be.
So "Flat Earth Model" is wrong in its interpretation of the Earth. (As every flat-earther knows).
But nonetheless fun to consider.
