  • Maybe, but satellites are expensive. According to the documentary Third Eye Spies, the program didn't cost more than a dozen people's salaries.

  • The specifics would be classified, but the program ran from 1977 until it was leaked in 1995, and was funded on a yearly basis based on the performance of the past year. 18 years is a long time to fund a program that apparently amounted to nothing.

    And according to the civilian researchers that were part of it, it didn't really end, they just ditched the civilians and kept going.

  • Fun fact, it's at least partially based on the CIAs long-running (and successful) remote viewing program

  • That's a great way to see it, thanks for sharing.

  • That's how I view different religions. Each one has one part of a big picture and a bunch of extra fluff. The trouble is that people tend to think that the extra fluff is just as important as the core message, and religions as a organizations encourage it.

  • The receptors for psychedelics aren't there for no reason, heavy prayer and meditation can trigger similar effects. Substances are just a shortcut, that's why religion don't tend to like them. Personally I think that as long as it isn't used as a crutch it's totally fine to buy a day pass.

  • The Quakers are pretty based, to put it in a term they wouldn't understand. They also are pacifists and don't let priests tell them what God actually meant to say.

  • My brother got all the good genes, I got what was left

  • Agreed, thinking the world is a simulation or illusion goes back millennia. Most people take that knowledge to mean that it's a co-op game.

  • Christians would have to get a lot more serious about the commandment to swear no oaths

  • Has China made any progress towards socialism lately or are they solidly authoritarian capitalists?

  • Five fingers on the right hand

  • That, and good thing there isn't a new pandemic brewing in birds and livestock.

  • And if you're desperate, the back of a shampoo bottle

  • I'm still using both, but I'm sure with the changes in administration I'll be getting banned soon. I already got a warning for saying that self-declared kings are liable to self-declared regicide

  • Life has as much meaning as we give it, humans think life has inherent meaning, ergo life has meaning.

    Let's start thinking that cooperation has meaning, that the divine plan is for us to realize that everything around is what life should not be and that all of it is a choice we make every day
