It's fucking retarded to say a bunch of chemical reactions between nerve cells can create consciousness. It's like saying that the universe came from nothing. If materialism was true then beings could be at most biological automatons, but never have consciousness.

What I'm saying is: it's not your job to disprove religion. The burden of proof is within those making the claims, theists. If someone is asserting the existence of a god, it's up to them to provide the evidence. Big claims require big evidence.

Asking cliche or emotionally charged questions such as "If God good why do bad thing happen" That line of questioning plays into their framework, where they can just give vague justifications. Keep the focus on demanding clear, logical, and evidence based answers for their claims.

That´s how the process of proving any theory is, entertaining baseless theory is a waste of time.

Non-human intelligences
When we talk about evidence for non-human intelligences, it helps to rank claims from least to most credible:

Weakest are folkloric and anecdotal accounts — myths of “sky people,” abduction narratives, or supposed out-of-place artifacts. They’re culturally interesting but prone to hoaxes, misperceptions, or psychological explanation.

Middle tier are astrophysical anomalies. “Oumuamua” accelerated in ways hard to explain, though natural hypotheses exist. The 1977 “Wow!” Signal and certain Fast Radio Bursts sparked speculation, but remain one-off or likely natural. Tabby’s Star once looked like a Dyson sphere candidate, but dust fits better. These remind us the universe holds mysteries, though “aliens” aren’t the default explanation.

Stronger are reported physical traces and physiological effects, like claims of exotic alloys or the “Oz effect” during close encounters. Intriguing, but not yet scientifically verified.

Strongest evidence comes from multi-sensor, multi-observer military encounters: the 2004 Nimitz “Tic Tac,” 2015 Gimbal, and others. Pilots, radar, infrared, and visual confirmation all line up, showing craft with extraordinary flight profiles that defy current human technology. Importantly, these aren’t fringe claims — the U.S. Department of Defense and NASA openly admit that some UAP remain unidentified after rigorous analysis.

In short: the best evidence is not ancient myths or speculation, but instrument-verified data collected by trained observers and acknowledged by official institutions. That doesn’t prove “aliens” — but it does establish that we are confronting a genuine unknown, one that deserves serious study.

I'm only up to Chapter 4 RN but maybe Essentials of Geology by Stephen Marshak? I found the third edition going cheap on a used book retailer and picked it up a while ago.
It's a textbook. Seems to parallel a lot of the same things I learned in a geology course.
i read that book as a kid, i remember it very fondly its a lot of fun

a(t) = 1/(1+z)
a(t) = 1/(1+z)
Key Physics:

Scale factor relation: 1 + z = 1/a, so a(t) = 1/(1+z)
Scale factor is set to 1.0 at present time, smaller values in the past
Size at any time = scale factor × current size
1 MWD = 100,000 light-years
Calculations based on Planck 2018 cosmological parameters via astropy.cosmology (current universe age ≈13.79 billion years; observable diameter ≈93 billion light-years)
Post-inflation size corrected based on standard inflationary models (assuming ≈60 e-folds of expansion), yielding a physical diameter for the observable universe of ≈0.88 mm (≈0.035 inches), close to the size of a grain of sand.

Does this sound correct?

How to publish discovery
I wanted to publish philosophy text to some journals or magazines.

They say you can't for one year publish your stuff anywhere else, even on your own website or social media. You can't publish it on other journals too.

Should I just fuck them and publish my stuff on my website and forums or somewhere?

does the implication of either of these two theories which explain the findings of the desi data not rule out any possibility we are in a metastable vacuum? if either of these are true our calculations on the cosmological constant are wrong and we are most likely in a stable vacuum.
