I’ve gotta say, ‘giza’ isn’t ‘giza’ anymore. It’s all over the map and many post what I find to be just nonsense. Sorry Joseph. I know, the ‘what I find to be’ is quite a qualifier but it is what it is. I suspect I’m not alone.
-
Well, if it avoids “This website has been seized by the United States Government in accordance with….” like Press TV, Giza Forum might still push a few jewels thru!
-
Dazzle ‘em with nonsense, the real jewels are still there, protected by the costume jewelry.
-
That “it’s all over the map” is one of the things I like about it. I come here to learn and to exchange ideas. Some of what people say here goes right over my poorly-educated head. Some is nonsense to me, too. There are some Gizars whose posts I seldom, if ever, read because I know I will not understand them, or will be irritated by them. I…
-
I wonder if the ratio of members who are “well read”/those that actually read books vs. those that choose to window shop/listen to information, has some correlation? My guess is that over time, the ratio of members on here who have actually taken the time to read Joseph’s incredible work has stalled a bit. Reading has become a forgotten…
-
What’s the point of reading if everything I previously learned was false? Is the new reading material true?
-
The suggestions on this forum I followed thru have led to very interesting books. Still digesting “invoking the beyond” by Paul & Phillip D. Collins. I would have never found this on my own.
-
Do you recommend? I too added that to my wishlist based off the recommendation. Haven’t ordered yet as I’m somewhere around 8 books deep in my backlog on the nightstand.
-
Same here…about half way thru The Gulag and Stalin Waiting for Hitler, then 2 of Josephs open and reading at once ;)…all heavy and meaningful.
-
Do I recommend “invoking the beyond”? Yes, if you can afford it and like thick books that aren’t easy reads.
-
-
-
I suppose I should have added an 😎 to my comment, oops. Reading the Forum in addition to the great books referred to here by members helps keep my mind away from atrophy.
Thanks everyone.

IMO, people don’t read as much. It is a big problem and a big reason we are where we are today.
-
Not so much not read, as not think or do, has greatly added to our current predicament.

Hi Conned agreed! It began looking like my twitter feed. There is a Giza twitter acct which Joseph doesn’t use and maybe Gizars could migrate discussion about Joseph’s works over there. At least here there is a higher level of discussion in other areas.
-
It is Twitter though and subject to censorship for the least little thing. Maybe there could be a Forum for Books discussions on this site. Maybe reluctant readers would be more encouraged to give reading a try. Nevertheless, I often post about the good doctor’s books I am reading/read and related other books but get very few comments.…
-
Oh the forum, how I miss that feature on this site. It had an impressive archive of discussions and deep dive topics. My biggest regret was not backing up some of the information that some very interesting members had compiled.

-
I think the problem not everyone is intellectual inclined. Not everyone can be a scholar. Not everyone can be a great writer. Another problem I’ve observed is that we cannot all agree on what issues or topics we should focus on. For instance, some want to follow money and localize everything like Ms. Fitts. Others are much more spiritual and…

Good job pointing out ambiguities and contradictions. I’ve reviewed a lot of ‘viruses’ don’t exist material, then the ‘oh but there are ‘’ exosomes’’, oka-ay but… And I am led to believe ‘viruses’ are not ‘alive,’ they are just code…, oka-ay but… So, the only thing I can do is turn away from this and try to sharpen my understanding…[Read more] -

The west was indoctrinated several hundred years ago from birth on to death to accept the Hegelian dialectic.
One philosopher’s theory does not mean he’s discovered the truth. Those who believe him manifest his thinking into being. Unfortunately his thinking, like a virus, has captured the human imagination. A simple “NO” stops the process…-
NO is a powerful statement and it is a complete sentence, needs to be used more often. Good post Billy.
-
Hegel’s dialect was certainly not formulated for Left wing politics, and certainly not for social manipulation. It was a simple tool of analysis. It was the young Hegelians who misconstrued Hegel, so much so, that it became anything but Hegel’s philosophy. Hegel’s premise was almost always predicated on Spirit, Thought, and the recog…
-
Thank you ML Light for the clarification and a lesson.
-
I always wondered how an idealist, as Hegel is known, could be used as a basis for dialectical materialism, but my knowledge of philosophy is rudimentary. Your comment explains it well.

“Equity” will punish achievement and merit anywhere wokery is allowed in the door. Meanwhile, China is churning out scientists and engineers. Billy Bob and R.L.S. are right: communities need to say no while they still can.

The lowest common denomination has been adjusted lower. Not mathematically possible you say? It is if the new math can’t prove otherwise.

I don’t want to hear about politics, covid 19, 20, 21 or vaccines on this forum. For that matter, I don’t want to hear anymore about Agenda, 2030, eugenics, etc. New folks are here…why? -

Ya know? My grandkids are doing pretty good. My grandson made a video; center image he’s playing drums, upper left he’s accompanying himself on an electric guitar, upper right he’s accompanying himself on a big base.

Yes and I’m tired of vaccines bad, election was a fraud, food supply s***, air we breathe also s***, etc. Alright already.-
Yes this is not the site for news, ie the stupid US elections or a bombing in Nashville. If it isn’t about science, alchemy, Egypt, The Hermetica, or strange stuff, DONT POST THE BLOODY THE THING

I didnt use the old topical forum. It was too interesting to see the weaving of RELEVANT ideas in the main forum. I’m not lamenting the loss of opportunity to dicuss. IMO we had plenty of opportunity to discuss; comments, pms and the drafting of intelligent well informed vidchat questions. I’m lamenting the ‘run of the mill’ newsie quality…[Read more] -
