ANGKOR WAT STEGOSAUR _______________ Many cultures around the world have stories involving dragons and large serpents. This stone carving at Cambodia’s Angkor Wat temple, Ta Prohm bares a remarkable resemblance to a stegosaur. It was carved around 1200 AD. _______________ #grownostr #plebchain #dinosaurs #history #youngearth #cyptid If you find value in my notes and articles please like, boost or follow!

YOUR THOUGHTS HAVE BEEN SHAPED _______________ The term “conspiracy theorist” is one of the greatest psychological operations ever perpetrated on the American people. Its only purpose was to silence and marginalize free thinking individuals and to bring us into a herd mentality. Rendering us unable to think for ourselves. _______________ #grownostr #nostr #uncomfortabletruth #5thGenerationalWarfare

NATIVE AMERICAN HISTORY IS NOT AS BLACK AND WHITE AS YOU WERE LEAD TO BELIEVE _______________ A common fallacy is that the Native American population was peaceful and pristine up until the Europeans showed up and destroyed their civilizations. It is possible that sometimes this may have been a good thing. The Aztecs before the Europeans, were sacrificing enough innocent people that they build monumental towers made from their skulls. To those innocents, destined to be slaughtered, the Spanish would have been seen as rescuers. “The tower is believed to be one of seven similar structure that once stood in the Aztec capital city of Tenochtitlán (now Mexico City). The skull towers are mentioned in contemporary accounts of the city’s capture by Hernan Cortes in 1521, and were razed by the Spanish conquistadores shortly thereafter.” _______________ #grownostr #archaeology #nostr #uncomfortabletruth

THE MOST GOLDILOCKS IN ALL OF PHYSICS _______________ The fine-tuning of the universe is one of the most compelling arguments for the existence of God. Fine-tuning refers to the “just right” initial conditions that were set into the equations that govern physics and how they effect life. One of the most finely tuned parameters in physics is the entropy of the universe. It refers to the initial low entropy state of the universe, which was necessary for the existence of life. If the Big Bang Theory is correct and the universe started with a massive expansion, our newly formed universe was not a chaotic soup of energy and matter. It was quite the opposite, it was orderly. This is because of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This law states that there is a natural tendency of any isolated system to degenerate into a more disordered state. This direction towards disorder is called entropy. The entropy of the universe was fine-tuned to such an exquisite degree. Physicist Roger Penrose estimated that the odds of the initial low entropy orderly state of our universe occurring by chance are on the order of 1 in 10 raised to the 10th power then raised to the 123rd power. [1] This number is absolutely unfathomable odds, even in the world of physics and mathematics. Basically, there would be a VERY large number of universes in which the entropy would be so chaotic in the beginning that it would be uninhabitable for life; before one is formed that could sustain life. This leads to the view that the equations that govern physics and in turn life were designed to be just right for life to exist. [1] Penrose, Roger. (1989). Emperor’s New Mind.

ALEISTER CROWLEY’S ALIEN _______________ Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) was an English occultist, writer, and ceremonial magician who played a significant role in the development of modern Western esotericism. He gained notoriety for his involvement in various mystical practices and his influence on occult and spiritual movements. One of Crowley's lesser-known aspects of his work involves his encounters with an entity he referred to as "Lam." In the later years of his life, Crowley was known to have engaged in a series of visionary and trance-like states, during which he claimed to have communicated with a being he depicted in a drawing as a somewhat androgynous figure with a large, bald head and slit-like eyes. Lam bears a remarkable resemblance to the speculated alien grays in popular UFO lore. This resemblance does bring up an interesting possibility. Crowley was called by the tabloids of the day the “Wickedest Man In The World,” and a “Master Of Darkness.” He was defiantly trying to communicate with beings from other dimensions, what we could call demons. It is very possible that the aliens that are encountered are in fact demons and not visitors from another planet. This would have profound and even biblical implications if true. It would mean that we are most defiantly alone in the universe, unique and miraculous creations. It would also mean that the UFO phenomenon is an encounter with a spiritual realm that we know little about. _______________ #grownostr #spirituality #UFO #nostr If you find value in my notes and articles please like, boost or follow!

ARISTOTLE’S UNMOVED MOVER _______________ The Greek philosopher Aristotle was one of the first philosophers to address the issue of the causation of the universe. According to Aristotle everything had a cause that brought it into existence. In turn that cause had a cause that created it. This chain of causation extends back into the past. However, that chain couldn’t be past eternal as one first cause was necessary to initiate the chain of causes. This, he named the unmoved mover, “ὃ οὐ κινούμενον κινεῖ” translated into “that which moves without being moved”.

Did the Cambrian Explosion Really Happen?

The deniers of the well-established scientific consensus rest their argument on the recent publications of a few maverick paleontologists.

SERPENTS THAT HAD THE WINGS OF A BAT _________________ Herodotus, respected Greek historian who lived in approximately 450 B.C., once wrote: “There is a place in Arabia…to which I went, on hearing of some winged serpents; and when I arrived there, I saw bones and spines of serpents, in such quantities as it would be impossible to describe. The form of the serpent is like that of a water-snake; but he has wings without feathers, and as like as possible to the wings of a bat (n.d., emp. added).” Herodotus recognized that such creatures were not birds, mammals, or insects—but reptiles with wings. _________________ #grownostr #plebchain #nostr #history #cyptid If you find value in my notes and articles please like, boost or follow!

NOT YOUR AVERAGE RIPPLES ON THE BEACH _______________ An aerial photograph of the West Barr area on the western side of the Columbia River in Washington state. This area is a large version of the current ripples you may see at a beach or river. However, these ripples are over 24 feet tall and spaced 360 feet apart and were formed by huge floods that carved out a large part of the state. The massive current required to form these giant ripples would have been at least 600 feet deep and flowing at over 65 miles an hour. _______________ #grownostr #plebchain #science If you find value in my notes, please like, boost or follow!

WON’T EVEN LIFT A FINGER _______________ In the depiction of God’s creation of Adam by Michelangelo, it goes unnoticed the subtle differences in the two hands. God’s hand is on the right and is eagerly reaching for the finger of Adam, on the left side of the fresco. Adam, however, is not reaching for God’s touch. Adam is displaying the trait that is in all of us, pride. It is pride that makes us not even lift a finger to connect with God the way he wants us too. It is our failed belief that we don’t need God to exist… That we exist without our creator’s hand. This premise is as absurd as the painting existing without the painter. _______________ If you find value in my notes and articles please like, boost or follow!

UNFOSSILIZED SOFT TISSUE HAS BEEN FOUND IN DINOSAUR FOSSILS _______________ “It smelled just like one of the cadavers we had in the lab who had been treated with chemotherapy before he died.” That was the description that Mary Schweitzer gave to describe the odor that was coming from a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton that was excavated from the Hell Creek Formation in Montana. Schweitzer was working as a researcher at the Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman, Montana and was examining the medullary bone of that skeleton when an assistant put a fragment of the bone in dilute acid to clean deposits off. What they found in the decalcified bone was soft stretchy material something not expected in solid mineral deposits. This led them to decalcify other bone samples, what they ended up finding was a soft stretchy fibrous matrix that was inside of the bone when the T.rex was alive.

NOAH’S ARK DROGUE STONES _______________ The Durupinar site in the Middle East has many landmarks that have been associated with Noah's Ark over the centuries. Among these are the Arzap drogue stones, which are large standing stones found near the site. These stones were believed to have been attached to the ark and used as sea anchors or drogue stones. They are heavy and flat with a hole for tying a line at one end. Drogue stones were the equivalent of a storm anchor on an ancient ship and kept it stable in rough seas. The stones were continually used in ancient times after the possible flood and can be found in places like Israel and the Nile River in Egypt. #grownostr #plebchain #apologetics #Bible #history _______________ If you find value in my notes and articles please like, boost or follow!
