Discourse on an Alien Sky – Revolving Ship of Heaven – Thunderbolts Project
The subject of this video series by Dave Talbott is the ancient experience of towering celestial forms that are no longer present. From a single snapshot of the configuration, we can work backwards to the first appearance of these bodies out of an undifferentiated cloud or sea of dusty plasma. We can then follow the configuration’s evolution through phases that range from quasi-stability to earth shaking catastrophe.

The Imperative of Technological Progress: Why Stagnation Will Necessarily Lead to Disaster and How Techno-Optimism Can Overcome It
Author: Gennady Stolyarov II “He who moves not forward, goes backward.” ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe It is both practically desirable and morally imperative for individuals and institutions in the so-called “developed” world to strive for a major acceleration of technological progress within the proximate future. Such technological progress can produce radical abundance and unparalleled improvements in both length and quality of life – whose possibilities Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler outlined in their 2012 book Abundance: The Future is Better Than You Think. Moreover, major technological progress is the only way to overcome a devastating step backward in human civilization, which will occur if the protectionist tendencies and pressures…

The Effect of Ancient Catastrophe on Humankind – Thunderbolts Project
It is the hypothesis of many members of the Electric Universe community that within human memory, perhaps a mere four or five thousand years ago, the Earth’s sky and the inner solar system underwent profound changes. An epoch of planetary instability produced extraordinary electromagnetic events and global catastrophes that were recorded in myths and legends around the world. Today, we shift our focus to perhaps the most important question one can explore when considering this thesis — what were the effects of these events on humankind, and to what extent did they shape our world and our species to this day? The ideas expressed in videos presented on the Thunderbolts…

Pluto Sends Planetary Scientists Back – Thunderbolts Project
Today, physicist Wal Thornhill continues his discussion of NASA’s New Horizons mission to the dwarf planet Pluto. The mission has already provided a number of surprises for planetary scientists. The tiny planet’s geological activity, its apparent age, the stunning features on its moons and more all defy many fundamental ideas in planetary science. As principal investigator Alan Stern recently stated, Pluto is “going to send a lot of geophysicists back to the drawing board.” But are these discoveries surprising from an Electric Universe perspective?

Fear And Loathing Alex Jones Edition
The Globalist’s Cause Is Destruction: What Is Your Cause – Alex Jones Edition Alex Jones and the Info Wars is fully prepared to tell you who to fear, who to loathe, all for you to form an opinion of hate.

Which is pure silliness. I am not going to tell you that everything that Alex Jones and the Info Wars does is wrong, because simply that is not the case. On occasion, Alex Jones and the people…

Evidence of the Electromagnetic Sun – Earth Connection – Thunderbolts Project
At the recent Thunderbolts Project EU2015 Conference: Paths of Discovery, Dr. Donald Scott presented new groundbreaking evidence of the electromagnetic connection between the Earth and the Sun. The electric universe theory states that the sun is in essence an electrical discharge phenomenon, powered by electric currents flowing along the arm of the galaxy. Electrical circuitry connects the Sun and all planets, including the Earth, driving climate, weather, and Earth’s auroras. The telltale sign of Birkeland currents at the poles of planets is counter rotational motions in atmospheric phenomena. In this Space News, Dr. Scott discusses the new, visual evidence that Birkeland currents from the Sun are the cause of Earth’s…

Transhumanist Wager by Zoltan Istvan Review Part Two
In part one of my review of the Transhumanist Wager by Zoltan Istvan, I covered the political end of the book. Part two of the review is going to cover the Transhumanist end of the book. Three Laws of Transhumanism are: A transhumanist must safeguard one’s own existence above all else. A transhumanist must strive to achieve omnipotence as expediently as possible—so long as one’s actions do not conflict with the First Law. A transhumanist must safeguard value in the universe—so long as one’s actions do not conflict with the First and Second Laws. By and far this is the worst part of the book. It is a poor mans…

Transhumanism – The Final Religion?
After several decades of relative obscurity Transhumanism as a philosophical and technological movement has finally begun to break out of its strange intellectual ghetto and make small inroads into the wider public consciousness. This is partly because some high profile people have either adopted it as their worldview or alternatively warned against its potential dangers. Indeed, the political scientist Francis Fukuyama named it “The world’s most dangerous idea” in a 2004 article in the US magazine Foreign Policy, and Transhumanism’s most outspoken publicist, Ray Kurzweil, was recently made director of engineering at Google, presumably to hasten Transhumanism’s goals. So, what are these goals and how does Transhumanism define itself? Well,…
