I've been thinking a lot about my nearly 15 years away from the Greek Orthodox Church.

I've come to this conclusion - I don't know if I would have the same ethical values without that upbringing. It's easy to think I would when I had that foundation since birth, but I no longer think it's that simple.

I've been around a lot of secular people. Not all, but many are in a dark place. People who are missing something from their lives. Ones who didn't have an upbringing similar to mine.

I've begun to wonder if these people would benefit from religion in their lives. Some type of positive power to pull them out of the darkness.

I'm not saying I've found Jesus. I haven't.

But more and more I want to be around the people who have.

Because I can't really be around these other people any more. My wife & I have cut most of them out of our lives at this point.

We prefer to spend our time around positive people who are working on building better lives. Building families. Nearly all of them are religious.

We're both very logical people. Religion and logic were like oil and water to me.

But when I look at the state of the world, it's not hard to see the positive impact religion can have on people. That's a very logical conclusion I'm coming to.

Also, I miss a lot of the Greek cultural stuff that I grew up, and it's intertwined with the church. It would be strange, but I'm accepting the idea that returning there, even as someone who isn't religious, feels more right than not going.

Still working through this but wanted to share.

Because bitcoiners are how I got here. The ones having families, going to church, and being decent human beings. Those are the people I want to be around.

The alternative is despair and darkness, and I am not going down that road.

Very early GM Nostr ☕️🌝💜

This ain’t the sun.

That’s still the moon.

Incredible how light it is.

Couldn’t sleep. Went outside.

Thinking out loud. Speaking to Neo. Or leaving a signal…

You choose.

We are witnessing humanity evolving into two distinct species.

Living in two different worlds.

Or realities.

It’s happening at full speed.

There’s Fiat land and Bitcoin world.

Two parallel systems.

Two different breeds.

Different food.

In Fiat land you eat processed garbage and call it nutrition.

In Bitcoin World you eat real food meat, eggs, butter, local, alive.

Different medicine.

In Fiat land you treat symptoms.

In Bitcoin world you heal causes.

Different education.

In Fiat land they teach obedience and debt.

In Bitcoin world we teach freedom, code, love, self sovereignty and critical thought.

Different technology.

In Fiat land everything is centralized, censored, rented.

In Bitcoin world it’s open source, sovereign, owned.

Different money.

Fiat land works for paper melting in your hands.

Bitcoin world works for energy stored in time.

Different housing.

In Fiat land you rent from banks.

In Bitcoin world you build with own time&energy.

Different justice.

In Fiat land rules serve rulers.

In Bitcoin World rules serve truth.

Different consumption.

In Fiat land everything breaks fast and so do people.

In Bitcoin world we build things that last based on PoW.

Different culture.

In Fiat land you fit in.

In Bitcoin world you stand out.

Different mobility.

In Fiat land your passport defines your freedom.

In Bitcoin world your seed phrase travels the world.

Different families.

In Fiat land the state replaces parents to raise sheeps.

In Bitcoin World families raise lions&wolves.

Different art.

In Fiat land gatekeepers own your work.

In Bitcoin world value flows directly from creator to pleb.

Different governance.

In Fiat land politics divide.

In Bitcoin world consensus unites & the free market gets to decide.

Different energy.

In Fiat land waste is normal.

In Bitcoin world waste becomes wealth.

The list goes on and on and on…

I could write forever but my thumb starts to hurt.

Different values. Different mindsets. Different incentives.

Different outcomes.

Two parallel worlds…

on the same planet.

The one is dying.

The other one is rising.

Did you know you can just create your own reality?

Live free…Neo.

I also went through that period. When you start looking even deeper you find that it's not actually the food that matters but your light environment. People that live in low latitude environments can deal with seed oils for example, but if you live in the US or Europe they are indeed absolutely bad for you.

Just eat what is created in the same environment as you live in and has as little human interference as possible.

Put simply, you want as little deuterium as possible and as much sunlight as possible. Animal meat from your own environment happens to be the easiest way to meet the right criteria so I still am carnivore.

My point being, those that point to meat are only coincidentally correct that it's probably the best option for you.

Education privatized would dismantle state indoctrination. When families control their children’s learning, they escape the government’s agenda of obedience and conformity.

The Second Realm is not just a reaction to the state, it's a proactive effort to create a better world, based on liberty, justice, and voluntary cooperation.

Education is a state propaganda tool. Public systems instill obedience, framing its authority as natural while erasing alternatives like anarchic voluntaryism.

Nostr will not kill you, but the trash you are apparently eating surely will 😸

And besides, more than 200 shops in Lugano are accepting Bitcoin, so to me this is the real sensation here 👍🏽🧡
