My Art anagrammatter: "...another version of Eden...!"




My Art anagrammatter: "...another version of Eden...!"

...somebody told me I must be wrong!
...the serpent "the devil, satan" convinced Eve (the woman) otherwise, and to take of the fruit of the tree of the KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL, instead of the TREE OF LIFE!
...what is worse the God (Jehova) of the Bible, does not want them then to eat of THE TREE OF LIFE after they sinned disobeying! So he expels them from Eden for good!

...WELL WHO SAID HE WANTED THEN TO EAT OF EITHER TREE ANYWAY...??? WHY NOT EXPEL THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE? OR REALLY, WHY THIS TRICKERY TRIAL???
When they were not ready for it! And their eyes were opened afterwards to some kind of REALITY/CONSCIOUSNESS, diferent than their INNOCENCE! 

Now their eyes are opened to better understanding, so this God says, they chose the worst of the trees, and now I will not let them chose in a SECOND CHANCE THE BETTER OF THE FRUITS AND TREE...! To live for ever!

WHY? Because they could not live for ever anyway...! Most likely! Blaaaaaaahhhhhh...!

...Eeeeeeeeeekkk...!

The Bible justifies all this life always as a trial for a future judgement and finale...!!!

A nice Sunday Book: "The Case Against Christianity Paperback – March 29, 1993 by Michael Martin (Author)"...!




The Case Against Christianity 

Paperback – March 29, 1993
by Michael Martin (Author)


http://www.amazon.com/Case-Against-Christianity-Michael-Martin/dp/1566390818/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1427073324&sr=8-5&keywords=michael+martin

[[["...

In this systematic philosophical critique of the major tenets of Christianity, Michael Martin examines the semantic and epistemological bases of religious claims and beliefs. Beginning with a comparison and evaluation of the Apostles’ Creed, the Niceno-Chalcedonian Creed, and the Athanasian Creed, Martin discusses the principal theological, historical, and eschatological assumptions of Christianity. These include the historicity of Jesus, the Incarnation, the Second Coming, the Virgin Birth, the Resurrection, Salvation through faith in Jesus, and Jesus as a model of ethical behavior.

Until now, an adequately convincing criticism of Christianity did not exist. Martin’s use of historical evidence, textual analysis, and interpretations by philosophers and theologians provides the strongest case made to date against the rational justification of Christian doctrines.

...a good book to have in your Library!

...it's content is vast, and a very good literal Bible study, with the criticism, and with some of the Bible wrong logic !


MY BOOK OF PURE LOGIC HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD, without all the Doctrinal Study!

In my Book logic and pure logic demonstrates the Bible is not all wrong!

But Jesus is not a God, that is clear!

World footprint! Planets resources usage vs. population and environment!

Do we fit on the planet?

Today humanity uses the equivalent of 1.5 planets to provide the resources we use and absorb our waste. This means it now takes the Earth one year and six months to regenerate what we use in a year.

Moderate UN scenarios suggest that if current population and consumption trends continue, by the 2030s, we will need the equivalent of two Earths to support us. And of course, we only have one.

Turning resources into waste faster than waste can be turned back into resources puts us in global ecological overshoot, depleting the very resources on which human life and biodiversity depend.

...World capacity of usage, which is the footprint definition, has a critical first limit, defined as year 2,050 , starting from year 2,030...!

...Simply because by then, we will surely know, where Global Warming is going to, and how long is the over-usage of our Planet going to catch up on us beyond return to a World we know today!

...THIS WILL HAPPEN MORE EVIDENTLY IN WORSE AREAS OF THE WORLD!

...THE LAST BASTIONS of more normal living will be over exploited then to worsen them also!

...HOW LONG WILL GOVERNMENTS AND HUMANS, DECIDE TO CHANGE THEIR ECONOMIC/SOCIAL SYSTEM STRUCTURE OF FUNCTIONING? 

...Humans cannot go extinct because of over-usage of the Planet as such! It is what they do because of it that can cause, big mass deaths!

...THE SCENARIO OF HUMAN DISAPPEARANCE EXTINCTION FROM THE PLANET WOULD TAKE A MAJOR ASTRONOMICAL ASTEROID EVENT TO HAPPEN, OR A WORLD NUCLEAR ATOMIC MAJOR WORLD WAR!  A Bio-chemical event could be overcome!

...And even after this, most likely pockets of small human communities would survive!

BUT THOSE HUMANS OF THE FUTURE WILL SURELY CURSE THEIR ANCESTORS, and Religions!

Blue Brain and "Mind?" Project...! Wikipedia.org





Blue Brain Project

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Brain_Project
http://bluebrain.epfl.ch/

    This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. No cleanup reason has been specified. Please help improve this article if you can. (March 2010)
It is planned that the Human Brain Project and the Blue Brain Project (both from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne) will move to the Biotech Campus in 2014.

The Blue Brain Project is an attempt to create a synthetic brain by reverse-engineering the mammalian brain down to the molecular level. The aim of the project, founded in May 2005 by the Brain and Mind Institute of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland, is to study the brain's architectural and functional principles.

The project is headed by the founding director Henry Markram and co-directed by Felix Schürmann and Sean Hill. Using a Blue Gene supercomputer running Michael Hines's NEURON software, the simulation does not consist simply of an artificial neural network, but involves a biologically realistic model of neurons.[1][2][3] It is hoped that it will eventually shed light on the nature of consciousness.[3]

There are a number of sub-projects, including the Cajal Blue Brain, coordinated by the Supercomputing and Visualization Center of Madrid (CeSViMa), and others run by universities and independent laboratories.

Goals
Neocortical column modelling

The initial goal of the project, completed in December 2006,[4] was the simulation of a rat neocortical column, which is considered by some researchers to be the smallest functional unit of the neocortex[5][6] (the part of the brain thought to be responsible for higher functions such as conscious thought). Such a column is about 2 mm tall, has a diameter of 0.5 mm and contains about 60,000 neurons in humans; rat neocortical columns are very similar in structure but contain only 10,000 neurons (and 108 synapses). Between 1995 and 2005, Markram mapped the types of neurons and their connections in such a column.
Progress

In November 2007,[7] the project reported the end of the first phase, delivering a data-driven process for creating, validating, and researching the neocortical column.

By 2005 the first single cellular model was completed. The first artificial cellular neocortical column of 10,000 cells was built by 2008. By July 2011 a cellular mesocircuit of 100 neocortical columns with a million cells in total was built. A cellular rat brain is planned for 2014 with 100 mesocircuits totalling a hundred million cells. Finally a cellular human brain is predicted possible by 2023 equivalent to 1000 rat brains with a total of a hundred billion cells.[8][9]

Now that the column is finished, the project is currently busying itself with the publishing of initial results in scientific literature, and pursuing two separate goals:

    construction of a simulation on the molecular level,[1] which is desirable since it allows studying the effects of gene expression;
    simplification of the column simulation to allow for parallel simulation of large numbers of connected columns, with the ultimate goal of simulating a whole neocortex (which in humans consists of about 1 million cortical columns).[contradictory]

Funding

The project is funded primarily by the Swiss government and the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Flagship grant from the European Commission,[10] and secondarily by grants and some donations from private individuals. The EPFL bought the Blue Gene computer at a reduced cost because at that stage it was still a prototype and IBM was interested in exploring how different applications would perform on the machine. BBP was viewed a validation of the Blue Gene supercomputer concept.[11]
Documentary

A 10 part documentary is being made by film director Noah Hutton, with each installment detailing the year-long workings of the project at the EPFL. Having started filming in 2009, the documentary is planned to be released in 2020, after the years of filming and editing have finished. Regular contributions from Henry Markram and the rest of the team provide an insight into the Blue Brain Project, while similar research tasks across the world are touched on.[12]
Cajal Blue Brain (Spain)
Cajal Blue Brain used the Magerit supercomputer (CeSViMa)

The Cajal Blue Brain[13] is coordinated by the Technical University of Madrid and uses the facilities of the Supercomputing and Visualization Center of Madrid and its supercomputer Magerit. The Cajal Institute also participates in this collaboration. The main lines of research currently being pursued at Cajal Blue Brain include neurological experimentation and computer simulations. Nanotechnology, in the form of a newly designed brain microscope, plays an important role in its research plans.[14]

HALF WAY (~1/2) TO QUANTUM COMPUTING...! But still in infancy...!




HALF WAY (~1/2) TO QUANTUM COMPUTING...! But still in infancy...!


Researchers Report Milestone in Developing Quantum Computer

[[["...
Scientists at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and at Google reported on Wednesday in the journal Nature that they had made a significant advance that brings them a step closer to developing a quantum computer.

Researchers have been pursuing the development of computers that exploit quantum mechanical effects since the 1990s, because of their potential to vastly expand the performance of conventional computers. The goal has long remained out of reach, however, because the computers are composed of basic elements known as qubits that have remained, despite decades of engineering research, highly unstable.

In contrast to a bit, which is the basic element of a conventional computer and can represent either a zero or a one, a qubit can exist in a state known as superposition, in which it can represent both a zero and a one simultaneously.

If the qubits are then placed in an entangled state — physically separate but acting with many other qubits as if connected — they can represent a vast number of values simultaneously.

To date, matrices of qubits that are simultaneously in superposition and entangled have eluded scientists because they are ephemeral, with the encoded information dissipating within microseconds.

The university and Google researchers reported, however, that they had succeeded in creating an error-correction system that stabilized a fragile array of nine qubits. The researchers said they had accomplished this by creating circuits in which additional qubits were used to observe the state of the computing qubits without altering their state.

Quantum computing studies theoretical computation systems (quantum computers) that make direct use of quantum-mechanical phenomena, such as superposition and entanglement, to perform operations on data.[1] Quantum computers are different from digital computers based on transistors. Whereas digital computers require data to be encoded into binary digits (bits), each of which is always in one of two definite states (0 or 1), quantum computation uses qubits (quantum bits), which can be in superpositions of states. A quantum Turing machine is a theoretical model of such a computer, and is also known as the universal quantum computer. Quantum computers share theoretical similarities with non-deterministic and probabilistic computers. The field of quantum computing was first introduced by Yuri Manin in 1980,[2] and Richard Feynman in 1982.[3][4] A quantum computer with spins as quantum bits was also formulated for use as a quantum space–time in 1968.[5]

As of 2015, the development of actual quantum computers is still in its infancy, but experiments have been carried out in which quantum computational operations were executed on a very small number of qubits.[6][citation needed] Both practical and theoretical research continues, and many national governments and military agencies are funding quantum computing research in an effort to develop quantum computers for civilian, business, trade, gaming and national security purposes, such as cryptanalysis.[7]

Large-scale quantum computers will be able to solve certain problems much more quickly than any classical computer that use even the best currently known algorithms, like integer factorization using Shor's algorithm or the simulation of quantum many-body systems. There exist quantum algorithms, such as Simon's algorithm, that run faster than any possible probabilistic classical algorithm.[8] Given sufficient computational resources, however, a classical computer could be made to simulate any quantum algorithm, as quantum computation does not violate the Church–Turing thesis. [9]

D-Wave was originally criticized by some scientists in the quantum computing field. On May 16, 2013 NASA and Google, together with a consortium of universities, announced a partnership with D-Wave to investigate how D-Wave's computers could be used in the creation of artificial intelligence. Prior to announcing this partnership, NASA, Google, and Universities Space Research Association put a D-Wave computer through a series of benchmark and acceptance tests, which it passed.[6] Independent researchers found that D-Wave's computers could solve some problems as much as 3,600 times faster than particular software packages running on conventional digital computers.[6] Other independent researchers found that different software packages running on a single core of a desktop computer can solve those same problems as fast or faster than D-Wave's computers (at least 12,000 times faster for quadratic assignment problems, and between 1 and 50 times faster for quadratic unconstrained binary optimization problems).[38]

Sunday thoughts of reason: A God father without a Wife...! A Jesus son without a Mother and a so called mystical wife...!






The Bride, the Lamb's Wife

...A GOD Father without a Wife, and Jesus without a Divine Mother...!

Rev. 19:7, 8; Rev. 21:1-9
Eph 5:23-32

http://www.truthinlove.com/References/wife_lamb.htm
http://stempublishing.com/authors/davison/Rdgs/BRIDE.html


[[["...
For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church— for we are members of his body. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.
..."]]]

[[["...
In our first passage in Rev. 19, just prior to the moment of manifestation, we read it is the marriage of the Lamb and "His WIFE hath made herself ready". Then, in Rev. 21:9 we read, "The Bride, the Lamb's Wife". both are seen in display. Again, looking back to the opening verses of Rev. 21 where the new heaven and the new earth are in view, we read, "as a Bride adorned for her husband". So the Assembly is married as a wife, displayed as a Bride; and abides as Bride when the Wife character has passed away.

The Bride character then is that which abides after the world to come — she is the object of His affection.

I think that is the point. The world to come is the sphere where God will display His triumph when He has solved all difficulties and overcome all opposition to His will. We know from the general teaching of Scripture that the Assembly will be the vessel which He will use for this display. She comes under the Headship of Christ for this, as we read at the end of Ephesians 1, "and gave Him to be the Head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fulness of Him that filleth all in all".

It is the wife in Ephesians 5?

That is what led us to take up this subject. "Husbands, love your wives"; it does not say "your brides". We do not want to destroy one thought by another, for we shall see they are both of equal importance, but we do want to grasp the distinction and see what the Spirit has in mind in using both these terms to describe the Assembly. It was that statement which first led me to think over this matter and, in view of the exhortation given us there, it led me to suggest that the wife is the fruit of the work of Christ in us as well as his work for us. I gather the work going on in us by His daily care has in view the forming of a competent vessel to display His glory in the world to come.
..."]]]

[[["...
It is God Who says, "I will make him an help meet for him", and, taking the rib from the man He builded a woman (Gen. 2:22, Margin). In Gen. 5:2 we read that God "called their name Adam". Adam called her "Woman" for she was taken out of Man; but after the fall he called her name "Eve" — which means "life" for "she was the mother of all living". We might have said, She is the mother of all dying, but Adam had grasped the thought of God in the promise He made as to the seed and he "called his wife's name Eve". Not, mark, his bride's name, but "his wife's name Eve". So, the woman shows the original thought of God, a help meet for the man; Eve, the vessel through whom He is going to operate to recover all that had been lost.
..."]]]


The Bride, the Lamb's Wife
...A GOD Father without a Wife, and Jesus without a Divine Mother...!

...A God that makes sex and marriage with Dads and Mothers, Husbands and Wives...! But this God does not have a wife, and this Jesus his alleged son, has to have a mystical church wife...!

A STORY NOT MUCH BETTER THAN A NOT VERY GOOD HUMAN STORY...!

In pure logic, it would be nice and more normal to have female Gods called Goddesses...! Yee haaaaa...!

...AND ANYWAY, IN THE BIBLE WOMEN WERE MADE AFTER MEN, FOR MEN, WHICH IS QUITE CHAUVINIST AND DICTATORIAL...! AT LEAST YOU COULD SAY THEY WERE MADE AT THE SAME TIME AS THE WORST EQUALITY SCENARIO...!
