"Higher Dimensions, Fantastic Science, and the Modern ..." starts @8:14. Scarlett Johannson's film Lucy (2014) helped me to correct what I believe are common misconceptions (e.g., Higher Dimensions @8:14--10:35 and @24:15--29:30) about the nature of spatial dimensions (e.g., the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th dimensions). For example, Lucy (2014) helped me to visualize practical real-world effects of the extra dimension/"degree-of-freedom" that's gained in, say, 4-dimensional space (4D space) compared to 3-dimensional space (3D space). From Johannson's perspective in 4D space, 3-dimensional space (what we call "reality") was like a movie that Johannson could reverse, pause or fast- forward at will. As a result, Johnnson was able to "stop time" and travel to the past or the future. Naturally, the people confined to 3D space didn't have the same freedom of movement. If you could step into and out of a movie, you'd seem to have all sorts of occult powers (e.g. the ability to accurately predict the future) compared to the people confined to 3D space. And I suspect that the analogy is true of the 3rd dimension compared to the 2nd dimension too. cc: mxyzptlk
Feminists worked with the KKK to stop Black men from voting only 2 days after slavery ended! Black women joined their white oppressors. Feminists have never apologized or changed their misandrist, emasculative agenda. So how can a Black man support his oppressor and their oppressive agendas? Also how can a man of God support homosexual marriage? These divinity schools deny the deity and holiness of Christ. Catholics bought and sold slaves and are against reparations as well.
Among the series of excellent presentations, President Izak's speech reminded me and verbalized so well how and why I like Div-School ... thank you! I miss the days spent in Chicago. Take care everybody! 🎃
