"We have, over again, the fact that criticism of the mathematicians procedure, if it wishes to be relevant, must be based on thorough sympathy and understanding." - Phillip E.B. Jourdain
"In other words: It's possible that that there are dozens — hundreds, thousands even — of these convex pentagon shapes waiting to be discovered. Up until last month, only 14 had been found, and for all anyone knew, that list could have been final."
"But last month, a cluster of computers that Von Derau was using to run though different shapes spit out an intriguing possibility."

They spent two years searching for this with an algorithm they made.
Reverend Ray Hagins great speech on Serapis; he shows that the Council of Nicea was started for the most part to stop a Arius of Libya, here's a wiki on it, --> Arius of Libya
Lets be clear about the Hadrian quote that the Serapis Christ worshippers were called Christians; if there was a Jesus Christ, the Christians wouldn't be worshipping Serapis, but Jesus Christ! But, they are not. Why? Because Jesus Christ had not been made up yet.
Here's another speech from him, where he shows quotes from later Christian councils to the effect of "believe in us, or elese", and "don't dare change what we say or come up with anything else." - 09Oct2015 edit - Council of Chalcedon says, "since we have formulated these things with all possible accuracy and attention, the sacred and universal synod decrees that no one is permitted to produce, or even to write down or compose, any other creed or to think or teach otherwise" Recall Duet chapter 5, where they have their god saying, "believe in no other gods but me", "do not pattern gods after the sun, moon, stars, and nature". Well, any further is a little off topic for this post/thread. But, maybe I'll make another post, taking this in other directions.
Ray Higgin's find's a most remarkable passage of Christians converting Africans to Christianity! Edwin W. Smith, page 173(according to Ray Higgin's video above) "the Golden Stool", "To win a people for Christ, it is necessary to Europeanize them. Behind all systems of administration lies the fundamental question of "what we intend to make of the African." . . . further, "One possible and largely practiced policy is that of repression, which means "keeping the native African in a subjected and inferior position, as a mere serf(slave) of the dominant race." . . . and further(paraphrasing), the most effective tool to do this is the Christian religion.
So good to see a ray of light!
. . . and another Jesus Christ is a SunGod video,
This one also does a good job relating Essenes, Samaritans; B.C. communities to Christian Sects of A.D. and explains evidence of Christian fathers showing how the canonical gospels were derived from previous Gospels.
- found some more of the African awakening to Sungods!
Yet another picture I'm sure is similar to one I already have up. I just kind of liked it for the starfield in the background of the nebula and a Globular cluster to the right of the nebulae.
Quote for the day,
"God is over all things, under all things, outside all; inside all; within but not enclosed; without but not extended; above but not raised up; below but not depressed; wholly above, presiding; wholly beneath, sustaining; wholly without, embracing; wholly within, filling." - Archbishop Hildebert
- Science news for the day is in the comments section . . .
Yet another Pleiades picture, I know. I know I've had a couple of them already, and the succeeding ones were more or less better than the last. This one is just another new photograph of them. I guess I just liked it!

Researchers develop basic computing elements for bacteria <-- link. Synthetic biologists have been building bio computing elements for years now. Now, they've taken complete control of life's most basic lifeform - a bacterium. This 'solf' nanotechnology can solve two problems nanotechnologists have thought they can solve - energy and medical. If not the more important problems!
This is not the nanotechnology that can make anything atom by atom. Can it bootstrap to that nanomanufacturing? Well, it's been shown that dna-nanotechnology works better in a cellular environment. That's as far as I want to speculate in that direction.
The known is finite, the unknown infinit; Intellectually we stand on an islet in the midst of an illimitable ocean of inexplicability. Our business in every generation is to reclaim a little more land." - T. H. Huxley"
