- The document discusses the theory that God determines the precise time of every person's death and argues this is not biblical.
- It cites the murder of Stephen, the first Christian martyr, as an example of someone who died not because of God's will but due to the sinful decisions of others to resist God's will.
- The author believes viewing all death as God's will is a dangerous error that contradicts scripture and links God to evil by making him responsible for tragic deaths. According to the Bible, death is an enemy that Jesus conquered, not a tool or servant of God's will.
This is a study of Jesus being our city of Refuge. It is based on the Old Testament provision of a place of refuge for those who are not guilty but face changes. Jesus is open for all to flee to Him to escape judgment.
This is a study of the negative side of laughter. It has more of the negative than we usually think of, and so it is good to be aware of how we can go from the positive to the negative.
A verse by verse commentary on Judges 21 dealing with Israel trying to figure out how to give wives to the Benjamites.They let them steal virgins at a dance and by this method save the tribe of Benjamin,
This document summarizes and discusses the potential connections between humor and religion. It references a Saturday Night Live sketch character named Emily Litella who would misunderstand phrases in a funny way. The author then jokes that they misunderstood a presentation they attended about the "hysterical Jesus" in the same vein. They go on to discuss whether religious texts like the Bible contain humor, referencing debates among scholars. The author also analyzes whether certain religious groups like fundamentalists are more or less compatible with embracing humor and paradoxical thinking.

The document discusses different views about the identity of Jesus, including that he was a poet, sorcerer, politician, or the Son of God. It examines evidence that Jesus existed historically and was fully human, while also making extraordinary claims about himself that suggest he was more than just a moral teacher. The document questions whether Jesus' teachings and actions, including his resurrection from the dead, support his claim to be the Son of God.

God calls us to a journey of worshiping Him. In this journey you will encounter different obstacles and derailments that will want to sway you from worshiping God. You got to be intentional in breaking the barriers staged on your way of worship in order to offer God acceptable worship.

Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...Cometan
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
The Book of Revelation, filled with symbolic and apocalyptic imagery, presents one of its most striking visions in Revelation 9:3-12—the locust army. Understanding the significance of this locust army provides insight into the broader themes of divine judgment, protection, and the ultimate triumph of God’s will as depicted in Revelation.
PHASE-IV
The very deep experience of silence helps to expand from the 3 - dimensional awareness of the body to all pervasive awareness. The bed of silence becomes deeper and more expansive - an ocean of silence with waves on it merge into complete silence called Ajapa state of the mind. This silence is the source of Creativity, Power, Knowledge and Bliss.
PHASE V
From this deep ocean of silence in the heart region, let one OM emerge as an audible sound which diffuses into the entire body and the space all around. Enjoy the beautiful vibrations.
Blink the eyes slowly, gently open the eyes and come out of meditation.

Muladhara is the root centre of physical experience, located at the base of the spine, the sacral plexus. The square represents the earth itself, the four dimensions and the four directions. Four allows for completion, and earth embodies the elements and conditions for human completion on all levels.
Muladhara Chakra is the meeting place of the three main nadis: Ida, Pingala and Sushumna. The downward-pointing triangle indicates the downward movement of energy and the three main nadis.
The seed mantra is Lam, the yellow square represents the earth element. The Muladhara chakra governs the vital breath Apana. An inverted triangle in the centre of the square encloses the unmanifest Kundalini, represented as a snake wrapped in three and a half coils around the svayambhu (self born) linga. Because her mouth faces downward, the flow of energy is downward.
The opening at the entrance of the sushumna is called brahma-dvara, the door of Brahma, which is closed by the coils of the sleeping Kundalini. As soon as one begins working with Muladhara chakra, this dormant energy awakens, raises its head and flows freely into the channel of Sushumna, the central nerve canal that runs along the spine. These two aspects of the kundalini: sleeping and waking, are identified as her “poison” and her “nectar.” The kundalini is poison when she remains asleep in the lower abdomen; she is nectar when she rises up through Sushumna, the medial channel, to reunite with Siva, the Absolute, in the yogin’s cranial vault.
In the pericarp is found the presiding deity Brahma, the lord of creation. His skin is the color of wheat, he wears a yellow dhoti and a green scarf. Brahma is four-faced, four-armed, holding in his upper left hand a lotus flower, the symbol of purity.
The Revelation Chapter 7 Working Copy.docxFred Gosnell
John witnesses the sealing of God's 144,000 witnesses, and he hears the crying out or shouting of an unnumbered multitude of those who have been saved during the great tribulation.
This is an intermission scene before opening the seventh seal. We have seen six seals opened revealing of the events that would shortly occur. The first 4 reveal what was to occur in the great tribulation during the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD70.
The fifth seal reveals the question from those slain as to when the Lord would avenge their death. The sixth seal reveals the answer to them from the One on the throne and of the Lamb which would be the punishment of their persecutors and accomplices. John sees four messengers/angels holding back the four winds of the earth & keeping them from blowing on the earth, the sea or any tree. In this figurative language, these are not heavenly messengers/angels. These represent those who are trying to restrain the word of God everywhere. Their efforts are restrained by the messenger in verse 2, preventing them from holding back the 4 winds, the spread of the gospel of Christ by His messengers/angels. These 4 winds stand on the four corners of the earth, Rome’s worldwide influence to stop its spread. But the gospel will be preached in all the earth. See the study for the Bible passages that support this. John hears the commands given relating to the sealing of the servants of God and the figurative number representing them. John sees a great multitude standing before the throne of all nations and kindreds and people and tongues who are clothed with white robes. All the messengers/angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four beasts fell before the throne and worshipped God. One of the elders asks John what those were that were wearing white robes. John said he knew and the elder identifies them. The chapter ends with his explanation.

Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.
PEPSICO Presentation to CAGNY Conference Feb 2024Neil Kimberley

How to Prepare For a Successful Job Search for 2024Albert Qian
The document provides guidance on preparing a job search for 2024. It discusses the state of the job market, focusing on growth in AI and healthcare but also continued layoffs. It recommends figuring out what you want to do by researching interests and skills, then conducting informational interviews. The job search should involve building a personal brand on LinkedIn, actively applying to jobs, tailoring resumes and interviews, maintaining job hunting as a habit, and continuing self-improvement. Once hired, the document advises setting new goals and keeping skills and networking active in case of future opportunities.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

Patriotic Weekly Review - with Dr David Duke.mp4
trimmed
It's weird.
Hello everybody, and welcome to Patriotic Weekly
Review, episode number 261. And we are live tonight on
Odyssey Rumble D Live and Entropy. And we're here with
Doctor David Duke, who is fiddling with his phone and
isn't properly prepared. But we're still doing this.
We're still doing.
I just got back from picking up my dog at the vet. So
there we go.
I've got my Red bull. I'm cracking it open now. Um,
this is my emergency supply, but it's already been
open. The emergency Red bull is already opened.
Ah red bull.
Yeah. The emergency.
Is it like the red heifer? Bull and Israel that they're
going to sacrifice for the for the coming of the
Antichrist?
David, I've warned you so many times about speaking
over the intro. You can't help yourself, can you? That
cantankerous look. Oh, gosh. Well, make your point
then. I'll do the also. I just want the joke.
I didn't.
Realize what.
2. All right, I'll start the show in a minute. Explain
your point to the audience.
Tell everyone you said that you had to have a Red bull.
So I said, is that like the Red bull? It's going to be
sacrificed for the coming of the Antichrist in Israel.
Well, I know.
About this, I know. So before we do the intro, briefly,
apparently. And this is true, isn't it? Yeah. America
exports. America exports red heifer balls to Israel,
and they sacrifice them. And why do they sacrifice
them? Explain this.
Well, the sacrifice, apparently, is, uh, if they
sacrifice the unblemished Red bull, it paves the way
for the Messiah. Now, the Jewish Messiah is not like
the Messiah. That Jesus Christ became a salvation for
all mankind. It's a Jewish conqueror. And in. And
basically, he's going to sit on the, uh, rebuilt chair
in Jerusalem. This is these are weird religious cranks,
right? Judaism is a very strange, cultish religion. So
if you if you sacrifice this bull in the right way, you
kill them. And they always say that they always do this
in a, in a, in a kosher slaughter way, which is very
kind to animals, actually. It's very unkind to animals.
If you've ever seen films of the kosher slaughters that
they use at these kosher slaughter plants, like in
America and other places around the world, it's a
hideous thing. They take a whole bull. Imagine putting
them upside down. I can't even hardly say it. It's so
hurtful. I mean, I, I like most Europeans, we're very
sensitive about animal mistreatment. Right. And, and
and the unkind treatment of animals. Anyway, they take
these, these cows and and large animals. They turn them
upside down. They hold them up by their feet upside
down, and they slit their throats while they slowly
writhe to death and bleed to death in this in agony.
3. But they believe that that's good for Jews because it
drains the blood, and the blood they think is somehow,
you know, taints the me. Anyway, the many countries of
Europe have banned kosher slaughter, but I'm sure this
is the way they would do it to the Red bull, too. But
the point is that, um. This this is a the
theoretically. So some of the Jewish crazies believe
that they're going to rebuild the temple. And then
there that's where the Antichrist is going to sit. And,
um, that's what. Well, they don't call me Antichrist.
They call him the Messiah. But their vision of the
world is. And that's why they rejected Christ. Because
Christ talked about a universal vision. He talked about
the idea that all everybody could be saved by Christ.
And, um, and that no longer would there be this chosen
people, these Jews who had any sort of right to rule
over the world, as promised in Deuteronomy or promised
in the Talmud. Well, the interesting thing right now we
have in Gaza. Well, change the subject for a second,
but we have literally.
Don't change the subject. I've not even done the
introduction yet. The introduction hasn't even
happened.
Oh never mind. Yeah. You go back to the Haifa.
You want to finish the introduction first?
No no, no. Right. The heifer is the issue with the
heifer solved and explained or is that is the more
explanation.
Well, there's, there's as obviously lots of nuances to
the explanation, but it's all about the idea that a
messiah is going to come. Now, the big problem they
have in Judaism is, is there's a conflict between, as
you can see, I know a bit about Judaism. I've studied
it pretty powerfully, but Judaism is, um, conflicted.
4. So some Jews had different ideas about the Messiah.
Some Jews, in fact, believe that you can't have a
return of Jews to Israel until the Messiah comes. And
that was one of the conflicts between some of Jewish
sects right now who are kind of anti-Israel, kind of
anti-Zionist, because they said that the technicalities
provided by the Talmud and the Torah were not being
fulfilled, and therefore Israel shouldn't have been
settled. But people make a mistake here. They think.
And the Zionists say, Israel is very, you know, bad
country. They're doing terrible things to Palestinians
because they're opposed to Israel being founded,
because they believe that Israel can't be found until
the Messiah comes. It's a technicality. Like everything
else in Judaism, everything's a technicality. You can
you can commit adultery as long as you're not a human
being. And that's a goyim is not a human being. So you
can't you can commit adultery with some other other
individual. But anyway, so what they do is they have
these arguments about things. But the fundamentals of
Judaism is that all the Gentiles, the non-Jews of the
world, which would be 99.8% of the population of the
world, have to abide by the noahide laws. Now there's
supposedly nine noahide laws and some people say seven.
Anyway, nine noahide laws. And one of the laws is that
there can be no adultery, they adultery. So they view
Christianity as idolatry. So right there. Uh, that
disavows and says that if you're going to believe in
Jesus Christ, you you've essentially die. Judaism has
always been a good bit genocidal. I mean, there's 64
different places in the Old Testament where they talk
about wiping out the Amalekites, the Jebusites, the
Hittites, the Canaanites, all the rest of it, and, um,
64 different things. Sometimes they're mentioning 10 or
12 people at one time. We're going to kill all the man,
woman, child babies. And that's what that's what
Netanyahu alluded to when he talked about the the
Palestinians were Amalekites, that the Palestinians are
Amalekites. And every Jew in Israel knows, and every
5. Jewish religious Jew or not, they all know about the
Amalekites that the that the Amalekites, that Jews were
ordered to kill every amalekite man, woman, child and
just to make sure they understood the specifics of it,
they even said, you got to kill the suckling babies at
the mother's breasts. And, uh, this is real. It's all
through the Old Testament, but it's also through the
Talmud. So anyway, that there is a discussion between
Jews that believe Messiah is not going to come. Uh, you
know, uh, as I got to come before Israel comes. Or not.
But the point is, it's there's a lot of craziness to
it. But those Jews who believe that and Iran Zionists,
they're just as racial supremacist and, uh, absolutely
negative to the entirety of the world's population,
just like the chief rabbi of Israel stated, who was
already a Yosef. Now his sons taken over. And by the
way, he had the largest funeral in the history of
Israel, very loved. He had eight. They had 8 or 8000
people at his funeral in the nation of only, you know,
whatever, 7 million Jews. And it was the biggest
funeral in history. And this is a guy that said the
only purpose of goyim, Gentiles on earth. Is, to quote,
serve Jews. And he gave the example like that. Uh, does
it does a Jew want his Gentile slaves, uh, to have a
long life? And he answers the question by saying to his
Jewish audience at home, religious audience. He says,
of course we want them to live a long life so they can
just like a donkey, like a Jew wants his donkey. That's
pretty nasty thing to say about Gentiles. Poor old
donkeys. Our kids are donkeys, you know. Our mothers
and fathers are donkeys. Our brothers and sisters are
donkeys. But but anyway, he says, just like we want our
donkeys to live. And he says, literally the only
purpose of Gentiles, the Gentiles are born to work. The
say of the dig, uh, to reap, while Jews are meant to
sit as effendi masters. And eat. Oh, you can't make it
up. I mean, you just can't make it.
So, in.
6. Short, they want to sacrifice the red heifers to bring
forth their God. They believe that'll bring forth their
God, which is like a dictator.
Of the end.
Yeah. Okay. Well, now I'm going to do the introduction,
which you interrupted. So we're live tonight, as
everyone knows, on Rumble Odyssey and D live. Uh,
David. Intro. David. David, uh, interrupted the
introduction. So we're live, you know we're live.
Please share the stream. We're usually here for two
hours, but, uh, David's here tonight, and David, um,
can definitely talk. Uh, we're going to try to keep him
on target tonight, but I'm going to try to not lose my
temper. And David's going to try to not wind me up too
much. So we're going to see if we can we can see if we
can pull this together. But because it's.
Exciting if I wind you up.
Yeah, maybe so. But as David's here, I will make my
usual pledge. We will go as long as it takes. So if
people donate and people keep asking questions, we will
keep the show going. So we'll keep the show going as
long as there is a good stream of questions. The
questions start at the end of the first hour, and as
long as people keep wanting the stream to go on and
keep asking questions, I will keep asking them to.
David. Now, um, if you want to donate, you can donate
via Odyssey or Entropy. Please consider giving
something whether it's $3, $5, $10, anything you can
afford, uh, please do uh, donate if you value my work.
All my work is free. Nothing ever goes behind the
paywall. Obviously, I do this, uh, for full time. I do
this, uh, you know, as a sort of as my job. I run
patriotic alternative. I also do these streams and all
the other work I do. So if you like all of that, you
7. value it. You value my book and all my other work.
Please consider a small, uh, donation. Now, secondly,
you can donate via cryptocurrency or the crypto links
in the description below. And finally, you can write to
me at Marc at the Fall of Western Man Comm. I've got
several things happening this week. I've got this
stream now. I'm live with Doctor David Duke again on
Friday. That will be at 4 p.m. UK time. I am also doing
a live stream on Friday evening, and that live stream
is going to be whether the electoral road is viable for
nationalists in the UK. Now. People asked me to do that
stream. I'm going to do that as a long form lecture.
I'm going to go into, uh, all the things I've listed
that I'm going to go into on my telegram, the actual
voting system, the two party system, that, that, uh,
system of voting creates, uh, spoiler parties and
finally into the role of the media. Then I'm going to
discuss the election results from last weekend and what
we can learn from that. I'm going to talk about four
nationalist parties in the UK, no. Five, in fact, who
all stood and give you their results and how they did.
And finally I'm going to then take questions and
answers. Then on Sunday, I'm doing a film review, The
Long Good Friday, that's film club and Warren Balog is
the guest. So that's the intro done. And the intro was
obviously late, but if you can share the stream, if you
can get the word out, that would be very much
appreciated. Now, uh, David, how have you been? And
firstly, uh, you and I talked a lot about Covid when
Covid was the big thing and you warned people not to
take any of the Covid jabs you were very vociferous
about, don't take the Covid jabs. And there were some
people in that community who were saying, well, maybe
you should take them, but you and I were always on the
side of do not take the jabs. This is a bad thing. They
are not going to be good for people. Now, today I'm
going to read you a headline from, uh, one of the
British papers, the Daily Mail. You will, of course,
have heard of that. And the headline from the Daily
8. Mail this morning. The top news story was AstraZeneca
removes its Covid vaccine worldwide after rare and
dangerous side effect is linked to 80 deaths in
Britain, and this has been admitted in court papers. So
they are now admitting that the AstraZeneca jab, that
was the one produced in Britain that has been linked to
80 deaths in the UK. So if they're saying it's 80
deaths, it's going to be many, many more than that.
Probably 8000, not 80. Yeah. Well that that's what I
thought.
I thought that seems like a, a very low, um, a very low
balled.
Estimate by a really good scientist that there were 13
million.
Reward.
That's from, uh, from the vaccine. And that was some
major scientists. Who studied it. So that's pretty
shocking. And there certainly was one thing we know for
there to be a fact, okay, that there are more what they
call side effects from these mnra vaccines. Then all
side effects, all bad results right from all the other
vaccines in the history of vaccines. There are more
specific. And again, the numbers we give 80 or
something vaccines that most people that are born in
the Western world are much, many parts of the world. We
give a lot of vaccines out, but there's no question
that the Covid vaccine has the most bad results and the
most adverse effects of any.
