MIND-CONTROL PARASITES

An actual example from nature of a parasitic insect that uses “mind-control” to cause the host insect to change its normal behavior to the benefit of the parasite,  is described in the PDF article below.

ABSTRACT: On the evening that it will kill its host, the orb-weaving spider Plesiometa argyra, the larva of the Ichneumonid wasp induces the spider to perform highly stereotyped construction behavior and build a ‘‘cocoon web’’ that is particularly well designed to support the wasp larva’s cocoon.

Here is a PDF file of a recent article written by William G. Eberhard which describes this phenomenon in detail:  PARASITES CONTROL MIND

 FOUR FUNDAMENTALS OF A RELIGION or POLITICAL PARTY

 1) The only god(s)/leader(s) are the one/ones that I believe in.

2) THE true god/leader is taking care of everything so I don’t have to be responsible for anything.

3) If you don’t believe (blindly) in the same, exact god/dogma/doctrine/propaganda that I believe, you are a sinner/devil/idiot/terrorist/traitor.

4) If you don’t obey the TRUE god/leader and do exactly what they tell you to do/think/believe, you are going to Hell/burn in eternity/be excommunicated/lose everything/be left behind/etc., while I go to Heaven/Nirvana/Paradise/Valhalla/The Bank, ect. to live in an eternity to blissful irresponsibility.

1001 THINGS TO DO WHILE YOU'RE DEAD, FREE ADVICE, INSIDE THE BOOK, READING MATTER

WELCOME TO HELL :-)

# 384 — GO TO HEAVEN.

 This may be far more complicated that it sounds as there are hundreds, if not thousands, of definitions of “heaven” among the current citizens of Earth, not to mention the religions and mythology of extinct cultures.

 Confusion, conflict and contradictions notwithstanding, let us assume that if you have managed the make it through your ordeal so far this may be your next move. In case there really is a “heaven”, go ahead and go there. You can always come back later if you don’t like it. (By the way, if you find out where heaven is, try to send us a sign.)

 However, if it turns out that heaven is just a state of mind, don’t bother…we’ll find out when we die. Of course, by then, it will be too late. Either way, it won’t be your fault or your problem. We’re all responsible for our own Destiny…or not.

NEW BOOK BY LAWRENCE R SPENCER# 385 — GO TO HELL.

 If you really do go to heaven it might turn out to be really boring.

 Who could actually stand to live in a place that is eternally “nice”. Really…. Besides, chances are pretty good that you did enough “bad” stuff during your life on Earth that “they” won’t let you “in” to heaven anyway.

 Besides, there may not actually be any heaven. So, if this turns of to be the situation, then what do you have to lose? However, if “hell” isn’t a “place” either, then you may have to go searching for it. If the only place you can find is Earth you have arrived. Welcome back, asshole!”

Animism

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Animism (from Latin anima, “breath, spirit, life”) is the observation that objects, places and creatures all possess a distinct spiritual essence. Potentially, animism perceives all things—animals, plants, rocks, rivers, weather systems, human handiwork and perhaps even words—as animated and alive. Animism often includes “an idea of pervading life and will in nature”,  a belief that natural objects other than humans have souls.

The animistic perspective is so widely held and inherent to most indigenous peoples that they often do not even have a word in their languages that corresponds to “animism” or even “religion.

Animism encompasses the beliefs that all material phenomena have agency, that there exists no hard and fast distinction between the spiritual and physical (or material) world and that soul or spirit or sentience exists not only in humans, but also in other animals, plants, rocks, geographic features such as mountains or rivers or other entities of the natural environment: water sprites, vegetation deities, tree sprites, etc..
