What Universe do you live in?

Now that's a good question, even for politics!

Julie...

It is apparent we ALL live in different universes. The older I get, the more apparent it is.
Not a negative. Just an IS.
:)

Maybe we live in different parallell universes.
Hugh Everett III was an American physicist who first proposed the many-worlds interpretation of quantum physics, which he termed his "relative state" formulation.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_Everett_III
His son Mark Everett AKA 'E', who became frontman of the rockband Eels, participated in a documentary about his father from BBC Four.

Love the Eels! Thanx for that:)

A light 'interlude':)

One who really admired the work of Hugh Everett is Max Tegmark.
You can see him talk with Mark Everett in the documentary about his father.
Max Tegmark is a Swedish-American cosmologist. Tegmark is a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and is the scientific director of the Foundational Questions Institute.
He is educated in the same university, The Royal Institute of Technology (Swedish: Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, abbreviated KTH) as I was.

I notice it is the non-fiction section. Is that the correct section?

That is a different discussion and IIRC one Costco put it there and got hammered.
http://www.buzzfeed.com/alisonvingiano/costco-accidentally-labled-the-bible-as-fiction

The library of Congress has the bible listed in class B, philosophy, psychology and religion, subclass BS. But I'm sure the BS doesn't stand for bull s#@t.

It appears the library of congress has therefore avoided putting it in the fiction section.

To ascribe to Modern Western Culture the belief's of a few, and to say the vast majority of a 'belief' WILL FOLLOW EVERYTHING written: Shows either a fundamental ignorance of how Human Organizations truly conduct themselves, or another agenda.

So lets confine that to events that have taken place in the present lifetime of persons on this planet. You frequently invoke them, so I hardly would think it necessary to point out the event to you, but somehow you think western culture is somehow immune to the frailties of human thought processes. Kristallnacht.

As a former police officer you should know how easy it is to whip up a crowd into a frenzy. You should realize that religious fervor is an excellent incendiary device. If you were paying attention you would have learned about western religions that whip up the flock into hypnotic states and things like speaking in tongues.

As of the number of times you have invoked the perpetrators of Kristallnacht I am beginning to think you are being disingenuous and not ignorant.

Calling for slaughter on the streets is a pretty good indication that Western society is no different than any other. Why should it be? It is composed of humans as they are.

Using religion to promote hate is a universal way for the shaman to get donations so he can continue being a parasite on society. One wonders just how much vital life blood they suck out of society.

The best statement I have read in this SETI forum is 'I'm Tolerant of Everything, EXCEPT Intolerance.'
It was not a religous statement just common sense.

No different to politicians using "In God We Trust" on their money & inciting their country to act on their declaration of "War on Terror".

Nice shamans!
