anton wibiski: worked for joe dispenza, now thinks aliens are actually demonic beings

• how can those big blue healing beings be demons?
  • fr marie verlinde says even the healing spirits that were literally healing people's burn wounds were demons. the test is if they hate christ.

#aliens
this guy sam shamoun, popular with catholics, making videos on how some hindu gods are aliens: Aliens Are NOT What You Think… You NEED To Be Ready for THIS

• psalm 96:5 - the gods of the nations are "elilim". he translates elilim as demons, based on the septuagint, which translates elilim as daimonia.
• hebrew translations like the kjv say "idols" or "nothings"
• it's hard to know if the connotation is truly negative. there is disagreement here between Augustine, who thought the inner voice of socrates was a demon, and the more cosmopolitan church fathers, who believed in the angels-of-the-nations preparing the incarnation of christ.
• apparently a man can summon orbs around his house by mental prayer, and he is being studied by the cia and nasa and the history channel is doing a documentary on him
  • recently, two people have told me they've had visions of orange orbs, and that these are their guiding spirits.
  • sam argues this is inherently demonic. what is the basis?
    • when the person invokes the name jesus christ, the orbs disappear!
      • reminds me of my ayahuasca experience, which i still don't know how to make sense of. i thought i was being too paranoid constantly invoking the name of jesus and scaring away these spirits. i believe the sjc vocational director, who told me they were demons. he probably has exorcism experience. yet other people see jesus on ayahuasca. perhaps it is neutral, but just opens one up to make contact.
    • the person summoning them says they're peaceful, like all those in the new age, and in healing circles.
    • most of jesse michels work too (psychedelics -> ufos pipeline, as was mine...) discusses the peaceful alien agenda of nuclear disarmament (so one can make a "know them by their fruits" argument)
• he makes ufo-india claims
  • sadhguru corroborates
  • inscription based arguments are a stretch: 10,000 years old rock paintings of Aliens and UFOs found in Chattisgarh, India
    • you can see the pictures here ^
• dr. michael heiser
  • believed ufos were "the watchers" of enoch and daniel
• his future prediction: man kind in desperation will turn to aliens as our saviors rather than jesus
  • reminds me vaguely of ganapthi swamiji's telling of the tripura rahasya
• 1 Corinthians 10:19-22
  • While idols are not true gods, the sacrifices offered to them are made to demons, and Christians must not participate in such acts
  • he reads this as saying zeus is not real, but satan manifests as zeus
    • reminds me of dr. robert gilbert saying that visualizing a deity creates an elemental being which a larger being (allegedly the benevolent deity) can connect to
      • sam would say that benevolent deity is satanic
      • he says the appear how you want them to appear to deceive you.
      • the aliens hate christianity and give the same ideology as the new age and hinduism
        • 100% corroborates my experience with new age healers (ET book, galactic federation channelers, etc)
• 2 Corinthians 11:14 - satan will appear as an angel of light
  • he is much more convincing than we give him credit for
• draws a connection between ba'al, jupiter, and zeus (and thus indra). i saw this on reddit r/occult as well.
  • baal as a generic term for semitic deities
  • redditors are still trying to summon baal

glp1s are changing people's perspectives on hard work vs. genetics: i dont want to work hard, i just want to live a normal life with a healthy body

• i still think junk food is objectively bad. it's a kind of gluttony and betrays a coarseness. but if you have a hard and stressful life, i think it's more than justified.
• if you don't have a hard life, it's definitely a vice.

but they very much have a point. and i empathize with them because of my own sickly childhood, how hard it was for me to focus on anything or do anything compared to now.

I remember being so angry when the food noise stopped and the inflammation went away before I ever lost weight. Those were two things I didn’t even know I was dealing with until it was gone almost instantly. I had a glimpse of how the other half had been living and was PISSED that I’d been made to think I was somehow psychologically deficient and weak for being fat. The truth was I displayed more mental fortitude and “willpower” my entire life than the naturally thin people who had never counted a calorie or carb because their bodies just worked.

I'm 100% the same! All that you MUST go to the gym AT LEAST 3 x a week and you MUST walk AT LEAST an hour a day and you MUST eat AT LEAST 100 Grams of protein - and on, and on and on. Yet non of my perfectly healthy and healthy weight friends and family, including my husband, follow any of that, and never have.

edmund burke's reflections on the revolution in france

• just hearing the sounds of the audiobook in the background calms me.
• burke argued against Bolingbroke's natural, rational, undogmatic deism. burke was pro-dogma. reason with revelation, not without. he believed artificial institutions like the polis were good, defending them against the first principles rationalism of the french revolution.
• Bolingbroke seems similar to Rousseau: idealizing nature, demonizing society, and disagreeing with Aristotle's view that society is natural
• he writes a satire of bolingbroke's view in a vindication of natural society. murray rothboard (mises school) takes it seriously. unironically. he thinks burke was genuine.
• began as a correspondence between burke and a young man about the political developments in france
