• Historical Perspectives
    Ancient Civilizations: Early human societies measured time using natural phenomena—such as the movement of the sun, moon, and stars. The Sumerians, Egyptians, and Mayans developed calendars and astronomical observations.

    Mechanical Clocks: The invention of mechanical clocks in medieval Europe revolutionized timekeeping. By the 14th century, clocks with escapements allowed for more accurate tracking of hours and minutes.

    Standard Time: The 19th century saw the establishment of standard time zones, essential for railways and communication networks. Sir Sandford Fleming proposed a worldwide standard time system in 1879, leading to the adoption of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

    Scientific Developments

    Relativity Theory: Albert Einstein's theories of relativity in the early 20th century fundamentally altered our understanding of time. Time is relative, affected by speed and gravity, leading to the concept of spacetime.

    Quantum Mechanics: In the realm of the very small, time behaves differently. Quantum mechanics introduces probabilities and uncertainties, challenging classical notions of time as a linear, continuous progression.

    Technological Advances
    Atomic Clocks: The development of atomic clocks in the mid-20th century provided unprecedented precision. These clocks, based on the vibrations of atoms, are accurate to within billionths of a second.

    Global Positioning System (GPS): GPS technology relies on the precision of atomic clocks to provide accurate positioning information. Time synchronization is crucial for the system's accuracy.

    Cultural Aspects

    Perception of Time: Different cultures perceive and value time differently. Western cultures often see time linearly and quantitatively, while many Eastern cultures view it cyclically and qualitatively.

    Time in Art and Literature: Time has been a central theme in art, Lost Time" to Salvador Dalí's "The Persistence of Memory" explore the nature and impact of time.

    Future Directions

    Temporal Physics: Research in temporal physics explores the nature of time, including the possibility of time travel, the directionality of time, and the flow of time in different environments.

    Artificial Intelligence and Time: AI can change how we interact with and manage time, from personal productivity tools to large-scale simulations of temporal processes.

    Societal Changes: As technology accelerates, our relationship with time continues to evolve. Concepts like the "singularity" suggest a future where time's progression could be fundamentally different from our current understanding.

  • The ninnies of Bidenworld seem to not understand that by subjecting Mr. Trump to a kangaroo court they’ve made him the kind of outlaw that Americans revere above every other archetypal hero. He’s the new American Robin Hood, the people’s outlaw — with “Joe Biden” relegated as the wicked Sir Guy of Gisbourne, master of foul play and servant of the evil regent Prince John (Barack Obama). The galvanizing moment in this melodrama was not the verdict in Judge Juan Merchan’s kangaroo corral of a court, but the next day in the White House when “Joe Biden” was asked to comment on it as he shuffled away from the podium, halted, turned, and smirked silently at the cameras, a gesture that is sure to live in infamy.

  • Pre-Columbian Era
    Indigenous Inhabitants: Patagonia was originally inhabited by several indigenous groups, including the Mapuche, Tehuelche, and Selk'nam (Ona). These groups had rich cultural traditions and adapted to the diverse and often harsh environments of the region.
    Archaeological Evidence: Sites like Cueva de las Manos, with its ancient hand paintings, provide evidence of human presence dating back thousands of years.
    European Exploration and Colonization
    Ferdinand Magellan: The Portuguese explorer, sailing for Spain, was the first European to navigate the strait that now bears his name, the Strait of Magellan, in 1520.
    Sir Francis Drake: The English privateer navigated the southern tip of South America via the Drake Passage in the late 16th century.
    Early Settlements: European settlements began to establish in the 19th century, primarily driven by explorers, missionaries, and later settlers looking for new land.
    Modern Era
    Territorial Disputes: During the 19th and early 20th centuries, Argentina and Chile had several disputes over the boundaries of Patagonia, which were eventually resolved through treaties and arbitration.
    Economic Development: The region's economy historically relied on sheep farming, but tourism, oil extraction, and natural gas production have become significant economic drivers.
    Geography of Patagonia
    Patagonia is renowned for its dramatic and diverse landscapes, which include:

    The Andes Mountains
    Western Patagonia: Characterized by the southern Andes, this area includes:
    Glaciers: Such as Perito Moreno Glacier.

    Fjords and Temperate Rainforests: Found in the coastal areas of Chilean Patagonia.
    Eastern Patagonia
    Steppes and Deserts: The Patagonian steppe is a vast, arid plateau that stretches across much of the region. It's known for its dry, windy conditions and sparse vegetation.
    Tablelands: Elevated, flat areas that are a significant feature of the Patagonian landscape.
    Coastal Regions
    Pacific Coast: Features dramatic fjords and is less populated due to its rugged terrain and challenging climate.
    Atlantic Coast: Home to significant wildlife reserves, including Península Valdés, known for its marine life like whales, seals, and penguins.
    Southern Patagonia
    Tierra del Fuego: An archipelago at the southern tip of South America, divided between Argentina and Chile, known for its rugged landscapes and Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world.
    Strait of Magellan: A natural passage between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
    Beagle Channel: Another significant navigational route.
    Drake Passage: The body of water between South America's southern tip and Antarctica, known for its rough seas.
    Climate
    Varied Climates: Ranges from the humid, temperate climates of the western fjords and rainforests to the arid, windy steppes of the east.
    Glacial Influence: The presence of numerous glaciers influences the climate, particularly in the southern Andes.
    Flora and Fauna
    Unique Ecosystems: Includes diverse species such as guanacos, rheas, Andean condors, and a variety of marine life.
    Protected Areas: National parks like Torres del Paine in Chile and Los Glaciares in Argentina protect vast tracts of wilderness and are popular destinations for ecotourism.
    Human Geography
    Population Centers: Major cities include Bariloche, Comodoro Rivadavia, and Río Gallegos in Argentina, and Punta Arenas in Chile.
    Economic Activities: Sheep farming, oil and gas extraction, fishing, and increasingly, tourism, particularly ecotourism and adventure tourism.
    Patagonia's history and geography combine to create a region of stunning natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and significant economic importance. Its vast, unspoiled landscapes continue to draw adventurers, nature lovers, and those interested in its unique cultural and historical background.

  • TRUMPERTARIANISM (PART 3)

    You will NEVER DEFEAT the #Slavery System of "Maritime Admiralty Law" that has been set up to control you, enslave you, and steal your fruits of your labor, by continuing to "consent" to being the #Slave of a Corporation!

    Our entire system is nothing more than institutionalized SLAVERY that you are duped into participating in EVERY TIME YOU VOTE or declare yourself a "US Citizen"

    If you want to "consent" to something, how about you consent to sending every one of these political parasites to the PRISONS THEY BUILT TO PUT YOU INTO???

    This goes for the politicians, the bankers that control them, the Jews, the Jesuits, the Vatican, an the #Police they have hired to PROTECT THEM FROM BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE, as they shake you down for any money you have left after being robbed the first ten times through "taxation"

    You PAY because you are a SLAVE and you refuse to stand together!

    Until you ALL stand together and END the entire corrupt system of slavery EVERYTHING called "government" will continue to rule and rob you!

    Their black robed priests and their Maritime Admiralty Law Courts will continue to send you to PRISON and steal your assets UNTIL you remove yourself from their #Jurisdiction by REFUSING TO CONSENT!

    I do not want or need a group of people to make rules for me and rob me daily!

    I don't need their "protection" and don't "consent" to be bound by their "Statutes and Codes" (Which are NOT #Laws, and REQUIRE YOUR CONSENT)

    EVERYTHING "Maritime Admiralty Law" REQUIRES YOUR CONSENT!

    It's a "Private Society" that you MUST CONSENT TO JOINING
    for them to have any jurisdiction over you whatsoever!

    This is how they send you to prison without you creating a VICTIM!
    NO VICTIM = NO CRIME!

    UNLESS you "consent" to giving "power of attorney" over your life to a CORPORATION by voting or declaring yourself a "citizen"

    Because a "citizen" is a SLAVE with no inalienable human rights!
    They can make the AIR YOU BREATHE ILLEGAL if they desire to do so

    The ONLY WAY to escape your slavery is by REVOKING YOUR CONSENT! Do NOT consent to ANY OF IT!

    Declare yourself a FREE MAN or WOMAN and place yourself firmly under COMMON LAW where MEN and WOMEN belong!

    COMMON LAW is the LAW for men and women living on the LAND! You are currently being ruled over as a "vessel" at sea!

    I really don't care about ANY of their laws, once every last one of them have been executed or sent to prison for their crimes they will be irrelevant anyway.

    What we got to care about is CONSENT!
    And none of us need to "consent" to any of it!

    The very day we stand together..... IT ALL ENDS!

    “FAMOUS ATHEISTS' LAST WORDS BEFORE DEATH:
    1. ANTON LEVEY—Author of the Satanic Bible and high priest of the religion dedicated to the worship of Satan. One of his famous quotes was: “There is a beast in man that needs to be exercised, not exorcised”. His dying words were: "Oh my, oh my, what have I done, there is something very wrong. . . there is something very wrong.”

    2. GANDHI—At his death, he said, “For the first time in 50 years, I find myself in the slough of despond. All about me is darkness. . .I am praying for light.”

    3. THOMAS PAYNE—The leading atheistic writer in American colonies: "Stay with me, for God's sake; I cannot bear to be left alone , O Lord, help me! O God, what have I done to suffer so much? What will become of me hereafter? I would give worlds if I had them, that The Age of Reason had never been published. 0 Lord, help me! Christ, help me! No, don't leave; stay with me! Send even a child to stay with me; for I am on the edge of hell here alone. If ever the Devil had an agent, I have been that one."

    4. SIR THOMAS SCOTT—Chancellor of England: "Until this moment I thought there was neither a God nor a hell. Now I know and feel that there are both, and I am doomed to perdition by the just judgment of the Almighty."

    5. VOLTAIRE—famous anti-christian atheist: "I have swallowed nothing but smoke. I have intoxicated myself with the incense that turned my head. I am abandoned by God and man.” He said to his physician, Dr. Fochin: “I will give you half of what I am worth if you will give me six months of life." When he was told this was not possible, he said “Then I shall die and go to hell!" His nurse said: “For all the money in Europe I wouldn’t want to see another unbeliever die! All night long he cried for forgiveness.”

    6. ROBERT INGERSOLL—American writer and orator during the Golden Age of Free Thought: "O God, if there be a God, save my soul, if I have a soul!" Some say it was said this way: "Oh God, if there be a God, save my soul, if I have a soul, from hell, if there be a hell!

    7. DAVID HUME—Atheist philosopher famous for his philosophy of empiricism and skepticism of religion: He cried loud on his death bed "I am in flames!" It is said his desperation was a horrible scene.

    8. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE—French emperor who, like Adolf Hitler, brought death to millions to satisfy his greedy, power-mad, selfish ambitions for world conquest: "I die before my time, and my body will be given back to the earth. Such is the fate of him who has been called the great Napoleon. What an abyss between my deep misery and the eternal kingdom of Christ!”

    9. SIR FRANCIS NEWPORT—Head of an English Atheist club, to those gathered around his deathbed: "You need not tell me there is no God, for I know there is one, and that I am in his presence! You need not tell me there is no hell. I feel myself already slipping. Wretches, cease your idle talk about there being hope for me! I know I am lost forever! Oh, that fire! Oh, the insufferable pangs of hell! Oh, that I could lie for a thousand years upon the fire that is never quenched, to purchase the favor of God and be united to Him again. But it is a fruitless wish. Millions and millions of years will bring me no nearer the end of my torments than one poor hour. Oh, eternity, eternity forever and forever! Oh, the insufferable pangs of Hell!”

    10. CHARLES IX—The French king. Urged on by his mother, he gave the order for the massacre of the French Huguenots, in which 15,000 souls were slaughtered in Paris alone and 100,000 in other sections of France, for no other reason than that they loved Christ. The guilty king suffered miserably for years after that event. He finally died, bathed in blood bursting from his veins. To his physicians, he said in his last hours: "Asleep or awake, I see the mangled forms of the Huguenots passing before me. They drop with blood. They point at their open wounds. Oh! That I had spared at least the little infants at the bosom! What blood! I know not where I am. How will all this end? What shall I do? I am lost forever! I know it. Oh, I have done wrong."

    11. DAVID STRAUSS—Leading representative of German rationalism, after spending a lifetime erasing belief in God from the minds of others: "My philosophy leaves me utterly forlorn! I feel like one caught in the merciless jaws of an automatic machine, not knowing at what time one of its great hammers may crush me!"

    12. JOSEF STALIN—Soviet Georgian revolutionary and politician. In a Newsweek interview with Svetlana Stalin, the daughter of Josef Stalin, she told of her father's death: "My father died a difficult and terrible death. . .God grants an easy death only to the just. At what seemed the very last moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and cast a glance over everyone in the room. It was a terrible glance, insane or perhaps angry. His left hand was raised, as though he were pointing to something above and bringing down a curse on us all. The gesture was full of menace. . .the next moment he was dead."

    13. CAESAR BORGIA—Italian nobleman, politician, and cardinal: "While I lived, I provided for everything but death; now I must die, and am unprepared to die."

    14. THOMAS HOBBS—Political philosopher: "I say again, if I had the whole world at my disposal, I would give it to live one day. I am about to take a leap into the dark."


    ******************
    BELOVED, compare these last words from atheists, with these last words, from these saints of God:

    THE APOSTLE PAUL: “O death, where is thy sting?”
    KING DAVID: “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no Evil.”

    AUGUSTUS MONTAGUE TOPLADY (1710-1778): Toplady will ever be famous as the author of one of the most evangelical hymns of the eighteenth century, "Rock of Ages," which was first published in 1776.
    During the final illness, Toplady was greatly supported by the consolations of the gospel: "The consolations of God, to so unworthy a wretch, are so abundant that he leaves me nothing to pray for but their continuance."

    Near his last, awaking from a sleep, he said: "Oh, what delights! Who can fathom the joy of the third heaven? The sky is clear, there is no cloud; come Lord Jesus, come quickly!" He died saying:"No mortal man can live after the glories which God has manifested to my soul."
    Lastly, JESUS CHRIST said: “I Am the Resurrection and the Life. He that believeth on Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.”

    Only fools never learn from history, and it's amazing that even in our days, with all these facts on our fingertips, someone with a mind can devote his entire life to a delusion, and want everyone to know that there is no God. No wonder the bible says,

    "Only fools say in their hearts, there is no God." (Psalm 14:1).“

That I had spared at least the little infants at the bosom! What blood! I know not where I am. How will all this end? What shall I do? I am lost forever! I know it. Oh, I have done wrong." 11. DAVID STRAUSS—Leading representative of German rationalism, after spending a lifetime erasing belief in God from the minds of others: "My philosophy leaves me utterly forlorn! I feel like one caught in the merciless jaws of an automatic machine, not knowing at what time one of its great hammers may crush me!" 12. JOSEF STALIN—Soviet Georgian revolutionary and politician. In a Newsweek interview with Svetlana Stalin, the daughter of Josef Stalin, she told of her father's death: "My father died a difficult and terrible death. . .God grants an easy death only to the just. At what seemed the very last moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and cast a glance over everyone in the room. It was a terrible glance, insane or perhaps angry. His left hand was raised, as though he were pointing to something above and bringing down a curse on us all. The gesture was full of menace. . .the next moment he was dead." 13. CAESAR BORGIA—Italian nobleman, politician, and cardinal: "While I lived, I provided for everything but death; now I must die, and am unprepared to die." 14. THOMAS HOBBS—Political philosopher: "I say again, if I had the whole world at my disposal, I would give it to live one day. I am about to take a leap into the dark." ****************** BELOVED, compare these last words from atheists, with these last words, from these saints of God: THE APOSTLE PAUL: “O death, where is thy sting?” KING DAVID: “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no Evil.” AUGUSTUS MONTAGUE TOPLADY (1710-1778): Toplady will ever be famous as the author of one of the most evangelical hymns of the eighteenth century, "Rock of Ages," which was first published in 1776. During the final illness, Toplady was greatly supported by the consolations of the gospel: "The consolations of God, to so unworthy a wretch, are so abundant that he leaves me nothing to pray for but their continuance." Near his last, awaking from a sleep, he said: "Oh, what delights! Who can fathom the joy of the third heaven? The sky is clear, there is no cloud; come Lord Jesus, come quickly!" He died saying:"No mortal man can live after the glories which God has manifested to my soul." Lastly, JESUS CHRIST said: “I Am the Resurrection and the Life. He that believeth on Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” Only fools never learn from history, and it's amazing that even in our days, with all these facts on our fingertips, someone with a mind can devote his entire life to a delusion, and want everyone to know that there is no God. No wonder the bible says, "Only fools say in their hearts, there is no God." (Psalm 14:1).“ Copied from Christian Page

  • Why Is Social Media So Toxic?
    The desire to improve our social standing is natural. What's unnatural is the toxicity of doing so through social media.
    It seems self-evident that the divisiveness that characterizes this juncture of American history is manifesting profound social and economic disorders that have little to do with politics. In this context, social media isn't the source of the fire, it's more like the gasoline that's being tossed on top of the dry timber. So why is social media so toxic to healthy dialog and tolerance, and to those who live much of their lives via social media? Because in the social media world, there are no moderating feedbacks. Anyone who dares question the extremism being reinforced by the "tribe" is quickly attacked or ejected from the tribe. Attacking moderate voices increases the potential "rewards" / likes from tribal members.
