You know what absolutely cracks me up? The insane reactions to the Terrence Howard and Joe Rogan interview. 𤣠Like all the sudden folks with marketing majors are up on some intellectual high horse calling vibratory physics āword salad for people who skipped science classā - theyāre truly offended, armchair diagnosing him as psychotic, etc. 𤣠some people have gone so far as to make whole videos trolling his ideas. I just need to know why are they so mad? Why do people feel legitimately offended/insulted by an idea that has been around for at least 100 years? There are plenty of other folks who have said some the same things he talks about (Walter Russell, Nikola Tesla, John Keely, etc) and to be fair I suppose the mainstream rejected them similarly. Iām not sure I vibe with all #terrencehoward has to say, but he puts an interesting spin, or maybe I should say curvature, on the geometry of space. But hey, Iām the kinda person who watched The Primer Fields by David LaPointe and the Black Whole by Nassim Haramein when they first dropped so thatās my genre, clearly. Lol. šš
Discussion
People donāt like their world views to be flipped on their heads. They want to be comfortable and non-confrontational. When someone comes in and disturbs what theyāve been taught or told itās shocking to them and they canāt process it.
Society has lost the point of science.. make a hypothesis and challenge it. Rather we are told, āitās science trust itā.
Its called cognitive dissonance. Most folk like the little bubble of reality they've either created for themselves or had programmed into them. Anything that threatens to pop that bubble or even nudge it in another direction is usually take as an existential treat to that reality bubble.
I now know that what is real is far bigger than my bubble and love rolling the bubble around of my own accord like a zorbing ball.
I enjoyed that interview. I listened the first time and now I'm watching it since I missed the visuals. I still don't fully understand his gripe with multiplication though. Everything else he talked about seems plausible and should be tested per the scientific method.
Well said šš» Iām also confused and discouraged with how quickly people dismiss his ideas.
I aināt mad, but that shit was hard to listen to. Iām good with challenging the status quo with new theories, but at some point you gotta prove that shit. E.g. Einstein came up with the theory of relativity through thought experiments. But then he actually did the math and came up with his field equations that are testable with experiments. You gotta have both.
Yeah I absolutely agree with you on some points - like 1x1=2 lost me lol. Itās interesting that even Einstein read Walter Russelās work. The idea of ālynchpinā formations that can rotate in all degrees around a central axis is fascinating. That part and the part about Walter Russelās periodic table were the parts that stood out to me as curious and maybe practical.
I guess when I hear far out stuff it doesnāt offend me as much as it makes me think āman where did he get what heās smokingā haha and then I move on. But there were definitely points that made me curious.
No doubt, itās important to have humility. There are lots of things that were ācommon knowledgeā in the past that ended up being bs. Iām sure thereās something that I deeply believe is true thatāll end up being bullshit. I try to remind myself of that if I find hubris creeping in
