Seen

The dew point has been in the low 70s and the temps in the mid-80s which makes it seem like it’s in the 90s. Not pleasant. But the cloud formations took my mind off feeling sweaty and gross:

Kinda neat!

Done

Posted the new / updated presentations to Frameworks for Understanding the World, revised the menu, and cleaned up the media library. Here are the new files:

Next, I’ll turn my attention to GAVNet News and post the Global Solidarity Accounting presentation there as well as link its content to various pages on the GAVNet News and International Environment Forum websites. But that’s for another day…

Quoted

In the same way, man has come into existence as the result of the combination of certain elements. Although his death is the disintegration of these elements, the elements are not annihilated. Therefore, life consists of the combination of elements and death of their dissolution or transference from one state to another. The transference of the vegetable to the animal world is the death of the former. Draw your own conclusions from this. Similarly, the transference of man from this world of matter and the dissolution of his elements constitute human death. Thus, it should be known that for existence there is no death. At most there is a transfer from one state to another. As the soul of man is not the result of composition and does not come into being through the affinity of molecular elements, it is not subject to disintegration. If it were, then we would say the soul has died. But because it is not composed, therefore it cannot be decomposed. And it is clear that even the basic elements are not subject to decomposition as they are not a compound composition. No doubt remains regarding this matter. 1
