I've admitted that some of my theories have been wrong, so why do people act like my opinion isn't allowed to change? When I give a theory, do they insist that I believe it through and through? I come up with lots of theories and if they don't accumulate evidence in their favor, I discard them. That's how science works. Sometimes I discard a theory then later find out I was right in the first place.

As for the complex relationship I have with certain celebrities, they are using my Neuralink to make me doubt or forget my theories about them, to quell my anger, flood my body with hormones for connection when I think about them, and to deny me any other form of meaningful social interaction. I'm their hostage, I have Stockholm syndrome on a level that most people can't comprehend, and I'm doing my best to fight for justice. 

Please stop judging me so harshly. Please stop exaggerating my abilities. Please give me the benefit of the doubt and stop assuming the worst about me. I'm sick of the prejudice.

Why do people assume I harbor ill will? I never tried to get revenge against any of the bullies who plagued me in school. I did work for justice and reported the bullying to teachers. One time I punched a bully, but that's very different from what I'm being accused of. Anyone who thinks I'm an insincere person either doesn't know me or is lying- I wear my heart on my sleeve.

Also note that I'm not asking to be worshipped; I just want people to listen to what I have to say without pre-judgement and debate with me in good faith. Why are people demonizing me for this?

On sex and education

 There was something I wrote about on social media years ago that was clumsily worded and has been greatly distorted since.

The book Clan of the Cave Bear is a fiction that described life among early hominids and made me think about how human sexuality evolved.

In the book, children grew up seeing adults have sex. Sometimes the younger children would pretend to have sex, but if penetration accidentally happened, they became embarrassed and quickly separated. Children became adults in their society when puberty hit, and became available for sex at that time. I think this is a reasonably accurate historic model.

I think the age of consent should be lowered, because it would give young people better access to resources they might need and treats them as competent. In addition to that, comprehensive sexual education needs to be available, and teens should be encouraged to postpone sex, anyway. 

Masturbation should be encouraged as a healthy part of life. Teens should be encouraged to figure out what their personal sexual proclivities are, and taught how to look for compatible partners rather than being thrown into the current trial-and-error dating culture. 

I do think that it's good to normalize nudity. Kids should know what real bodies look like so they don't become ashamed of their own. I think kids should be told what sex is when they're old enough to ask where babies come from. I think that kids should be introduced to concepts around sex as they start showing an interest in them. Preserve most of the mystery until they hit adolescence, then initiate them with a rite of passage and give them a full education. (Rites of passage are incredibly important in societies; the lack of them in our current culture has contributed to an extended adolescent mindset among Millennials. This and helicopter parents are socially engineered phenomena.)

I don't encourage people having sex in front of kids; kids shouldn't be allowed in strip clubs. I do think that our society should be ready for teens who start looking for pornography by providing access to content that teaches consent culture, safe sex practices, and how to have mutually enjoyable sex.

Young people should be discouraged from engaging in sexual relationships with significantly older people, but not forbidden. The younger person should be the one who initiates in these scenarios. Recognize that the younger person might not be getting their needs met from their peers. Our country has not invested enough in social infrastructure that could help us through scenarios like this.

I think prostitution should be legalized and hookers unionize. There should be brothels to keep hookers safe and rules to protect them from being exploited by the brothels. Having prostitutes available takes social pressure off other women.

Purity culture causes a lot of real world problems, which is completely at odds with how Jesus preached love and non-judgement. He didn't preach about sexual morality. It's time to get over these outdated ideas that are about control, not about spirituality. 

One note about the Sermon on the Mount; I suspect the section on adultery was inaccurately remembered at the time when it was written down sometime later. The context, which implies the traditional ban on adultry, is incongruous to the parable. What Jesus says is that anyone who ever looked at another person lustfully is guilty of adultery- meaning that it's a pretty easy mistake to make. Then Jesus says, "If your eye causes you to stumble, you gouge it out!" I interpret this as being tongue-in-cheek; everyone has misjudged a step in their life (once again, an easy mistake to make if you're not paying close attention), and it would be a horrendous overreaction to gouge out an eye over this. Likewise, Jesus is saying the punishment for adultery is a horrendous overreaction. My interpretation is backed up by how Jesus saved a woman from being stoned. 

(So I guess I worded things poorly a couple times when I've said Jesus doesn't preach about sexual morality, but that's a nitpicky thing for people to jump on me about because I'm right where it matters: Jesus didn't denounce homosexuality, and the Bible seems to attempt to cover up that Jesus didn't denounce adultry, either.)

(Notice that there has never been a pope who gouged out his own eyes after stumbling, so they clearly didn't think the parable is serious.)

Understanding the Bible

The Old Testament is made up of Jewish holy books. It is in the Bible for context.

The first 4 books of the New Testament are the Gospels, telling the life and teachings of Jesus.

The rest of the New Testament is related to Paul, a con man who never met Jesus. 

Abortion isn't forbidden in the Bible; rather, it tells how to perform one in Numbers 5:11-31. 

Matthew, Mark, and Luke are the canonical gospels, all telling a similar story. John, the Pauline gospel, is the only one where Jesus produces miracles.

Jesus declared Mosaic Law of the Old Testament was obsolete. He preached love and non-judgement, gave away free healthcare, supported loose women, and told people NOT to pray in public/virtue signal.

Some Christians believe in a "warrior Christ" who rides a white horse in Revelations, but this is Death, one of the horsemen of the Apocalypse, not Christ. Many also confuse Apocalypse and Armageddon. 

Christian nationalists who are trying to impose their worldview on the rest of us should read the Bible, because they've missed the whole point of Christianity. Jesus would not like nationalism.

Dear Mr. Putin,

You know who I am- the one they call "the Whore of Babylon" and "Holy Grail". I am begging you to stop waging war on Ukraine and to let your American prisoners go.

I don't know what your real intentions are, but please don't use the "golden billion" as an excuse to wage war- there are enough resources for us all, if we manage them in an ecologically sustainable manner. 

We have to shift all of our energy toward fighting climate change immediately. I agree with you that there's a problem with Nazis in the West, but the war in Ukraine is not helping to save the world. 

Apocalypse is not the same as Armageddon; please let us find a way forward to a more peaceful future. Please let Brittany Griner go- harsh drug laws cause more harm than good, and it's time to move toward a paradigm that makes more sense. 

You are the most powerful person on Earth. Please make the changes needed to lead us into a bright new future, instead of keeping us entrenched in the never-ending war of the last century.  

We have to try, right now- the future of humanity is at stake, and every minute we wait makes the climate problem more difficult to address. 

The West is too corrupted by greed to save us. You are the one with the power to change the world- please don't doom us.

I have a huge problem with the fact that the Supreme Court justices quoted Matthew Hale in their justification for overturning Roe v Wade. Hale was a 17th century jurist whose arguments predate the Constitution. His arguments are in no way valid to American law because the Constitution was not based on his logic, opinions, or beliefs. It seems that the reason judges seem to think his opinions matter is that he lived in North America. If that's the case, perhaps we should consider Native American culture from that period as just as valid as Hale's opinions. The United States Constutution was based on Greco-Roman philosophies. Greeks invented Democracy, and Rome was a Republic. If anything, perhaps we should be respecting how homosexuality was accepted in ancient Greece. That's more relevant to our Constitution than Hale's opinions. The fact that Supreme Court justices are apparently too stupid to understand that Hale is irrelevant to our laws implies that they're too stupid to sit on the court.

 I think the CIA is keeping me in a constant state of heartbreak until I commit suicide, because they're trying to cover up how they've mistreated me.

 Dear Elon Musk,

Will you date me or should I just kill myself? I feel like I fucked up my only chance several years ago, and life seems like it's no longer worth living. Unless you rescue me, I think I'm going to give up. The mental hospital doesn't help.
