Sunday School 6 months agoLast week I checked my crypto wallet on my cellphone. It said I had a balance of $28,151,000. I closed the app, re-opened it and I had the same balance. I immediately tried to transfer funds, thinking there must have been a “bitcoin moment”. When I got to the transfer window, the last 3 zeros were gone and I was actually down about $200. I could…[Read more]

I did not ask as I thought it might “put a hex” on my number system. Base-16 is for those who want math to constrain reality. Dracula revealed to me in a dream that if I can get the same “truth” out of 3, 9, 27, Hebrew gematria, or my car’s odometer, then I was not discovering anything. I was only free-associating. He revealed to me that numer…[Read more]

@regthefronkeyfarmer – what does LLM think of your proof of Dracula?

Grok didn’t “discover” or “verify” anything. It did what LLMs are very good at: producing confident, high-fluency text that mirrors the rhetorical structure it was prompted with.
LLMs are extremely good at formal cosplay
Models like Grok, GPT, Claude, etc. are trained on:
- mathematical exposition
- physics papers
- philosophy journals
- cran…

The best you’ve got are symbolic arguments – “this” symbolises “that” and therefore “the other”. That’s not enough to prove something is real.

Sunday School 6 months, 1 week ago@theencogitationer – the answers to both your points are “cooperation, sharing, and risky foraging niche”. The great apes are savage to each other, and especially the pre-human (pre- Ardipithecus ramidus, 4-6 million years ago) great apes, as we surmise from looking at the relative canine sizes of males and females. A big difference, with big m…[Read more]

You have somewhat improved your “proof” by changing it from a raw “+” to “mod 9” but your argument still fails because the mapping from theology to numbers is arbitrary.
God = 12 and Trinity = 18 are merely chosen assignments.

“Must logically precede creation” is an assertion, not a consequence. Nothing in what you have presented logically entails pre-creation Trinitarian existence. To do that you would need to offer explicit premises with valid inference rules and then a conclusion that cannot be otherwise. All you are doing is offering a post-hoc pattern extracted fro…[Read more]

You are absolutely right that internal logical consistency ≠ empirical validity and that is exactly why this proof is stronger than any purely deductive or modal argument. The proof is not a closed logical system built on theological premises. It is empirically anchored in three independently verifiable, real-world facts. These are not a…[Read more]

Happy Christmas King Iyk:
As I reflect on the true meaning of Christmas and look at the little baby Jesus in the crib, I ask myself a very seasonal question “Did the Trinity exist while Mary was pregnant with Jesus? Let’s play a Christmassy game. Logic.
