There is only one path to the truth. Posted here for the record.
The title of this post pretty much sums up my attitude in the search for truth. All my life I have been searching for the truth. I have been sent down many unfruitful paths in my life through no fault of my own. I was brought up with traditional Christian beliefs of various denominations including Roman Catholic, Protestant, and many other sects, but then who wasn’t brought up in the same way – at least in my country? So it is not a unique upbringing in any way. Like many other people, I had a very difficult time penetrating all the confusing bullshit that religion used to enslave and divert me from the real truth. But now, I know that there is only one way to truth that mankind has discovered. It is far from perfect but it is the only way we as a species have found that really … Continue reading

Oh my, was I right, or what? An update to my David Wilcock et. al. are scam artists.
In one of my previous posts, I told you that I had found and commented on someone’s blog regarding the bullshit David Wilcock makes up and tries to scam other people with. I also had the good sense to copy and paste my comment in order to preserve it just in case the author of the post deleted it. The post can be found here: Post by someone who does not care one iota about the truth, but would rather live in a self generated fantasy world because he is behaving like an idiot. The post I had written can be found here: The Physics of David Wilcock, Part 2 Much to my surprise (yes, I had truly expected my comment to be taken seriously and discussed in an open way), the post comment has been deleted by the author. I am really glad I played my hunch and decided … Continue reading

Run 13, 2012 …some comments on the VFFs
Today’s run was 10 kilometers at a 7:05 average pace per kilometer. The weather was great at +2 degrees C. I think this is my longest run at any speed in my VFFs so I am happy with the results. I have not run with my VFFs in really cold weather. The coldest I think was around -7 C. Today my toes did not get cold, but I did feel a good deal of frost burning in all my other outdoor VFF runs, probably because it was colder. I kept having to flex my toes and worry about frostbite until around the 3 km mark when my toes warmed up to a normal comfortable temperature. My wife came up with a theory for that and I think it is correct. She thinks my body shuts off blood flow to my toes and fingers until my core body temperature is high … Continue reading
