BBN, July 30, 2024 – Venezuela in REVOLT as the people REJECT COMMUNISM...
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Alright, welcome to Bright Town Broadcast News for Tuesday, July 30th, 2024.
I'm Mike Adams.
Thank you so much for your support and for joining me today.
I'm really honored to be able to reach you daily.
And wow, do we have a lot happening today.
Breaking news, the governments of Argentina, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Panama...
Paraguay.
I should just stop trying to pronounce these with a South American accent.
Peru, the Dominican Republic.
Uruguay.
I have to pronounce that one more correctly.
Will request an emergency meeting of the OAS Permanent Council.
To issue a resolution on Maduro's fraudulent election in Venezuela.
Yes, there is a revolt underway in Venezuela right now.
As Maduro apparently only received about one-third of the vote, roughly, at least according to exit polls, his opponent received about two-thirds of But then they stopped broadcasting the results and Maduro apparently ordered the official election results group, which is controlled by him, to say that he won with 51%.
Well, the people of Venezuela are not buying it.
And they are revolting.
There are protests in the streets.
There are reports that some groups broke into Maduro's home.
There's at least one regional, what we would consider a National Guard unit that has turned against Maduro.
It looks like things are headed toward what could be a revolutionary, possibly a military coup against Maduro because everybody knows he did not win the election.
Now, complicating this even more is that, at least my understanding, is that Russia and China are congratulating Maduro for his victory, while the United States, and Antony Blinken in particular, who is a known liar, obviously, is questioning the who is a known liar, obviously, is questioning the results of the election.
Yes, yes, right.
So you have Antony Blinken here, Secretary of State, saying that there was election fraud not in America, but in Venezuela.
Because America doesn't like Maduro in power there, and the Biden regime prefers the opposition.
Which is really interesting because for the moment, it may be that the Biden regime and most of the people of Venezuela actually align on deposing Maduro.
But I was tweeting out to Antony Blinken, hey, wait till you find out about the election fraud that happened in Norte Americano, you know, because we had a stolen election in 2020.
And the Democrats had no interest in checking that out.
In fact, they shut down anybody who questioned that.
Have you noticed that whenever the Democrats, when they want to question something, it's completely okay.
But if you question something, oh, it's an insurrection.
So that's just one of the things that's going on.
And there's more.
We'll talk about what's happening in Israel.
I mean, on the verge of major war, regional war, I mean, Erdogan of Turkey even threatening to potentially invade Israel with Turkish troops.
It's like, what?
But, of course, he talks a lot.
Very rarely does he follow up his words with action, but it's a pretty bold thing to say.
But there are other militaries moving into Syria.
There's movement from Iran and from Iraq and other countries.
Syria, even in Egypt, there's a lot of movement towards the border, moving military assets closer just in case.
Things look like they're about to explode with Israel, but Israel itself is in a very difficult spot, and Israel is on the verge of its own civil war.
And if Israel launches a full-blown assault on Lebanon, which now looks imminent, it was in fact supposed to happen yesterday, and for some reason it got called off or delayed.
But if Israel goes ahead with that, it's going to be – I can't tell you how rapidly this thing is going to escalate out of control.
In fact, former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter is now saying – I just heard his interview – He says that Israel has produced neutron bombs.
Neutron bombs that are, of course, atomic bombs, but they don't leave behind the normal radioisotope fallout that renders areas uninhabitable for centuries.
It kills people and living things, horses and dogs and what have you, but it does not destroy structures.
It doesn't destroy buildings and infrastructure.
So a neutron bomb is the kind of perfect, mad, genocidal weapon.
And I think I know why Scott Ritter is now saying that Israel has developed neutron bombs.
And I believe that information has come to him from someone I interviewed, Dr. Chris Busby.
And Dr. Busby has been researching neutron bombs.
And he believes that Israel used neutron bombs in Gaza already and that neutron bombs were even used in previous years.
In previous conflicts in the area.
And he thinks that he's got the evidence or is in the process of gathering the evidence that can prove that.
But do you realize what will happen if Israel rolls out a wave of attack bombings on Lebanon using neutron bombs that devastate Hezbollah And are then recognized as being, in essence, atomic weapons.
Not in the conventional sense, but they are atomic by definition because they release energy from the alteration of atomic structures, obviously, atomic elements.
So they are atomic bombs in the physics sense of it.
But if that happens, you tell me, how long will it take before Pakistan ends up delivering a nuke some way to Tel Aviv?
And then we're talking about real Armageddon at that point.
So those are some of the topics here.
We've got some other breaking news for you as well.
Let me just brief you on the format that we're going to share here for the next 99 days.
As you know, yesterday I rolled out my first of 100 sermons that I'll be including here each day.
You know, 100 sermons over 100 days.
That's my intention here.
And I've got sermon number two for you here today as well.
And it's probably not a coincidence that sermon number two does involve mentions of toilet repair and plumbing.
So that just happened to line up that way.
But in any case, each day for the next 99 days, well, including today...
I'm going to give you the news up front, like we've started to do here.
And then that's going to be followed by a sermon, which is a principled teaching that is designed to give you the practical mindset that can help you through these incredibly difficult times that are coming.
And perhaps the word sermon doesn't even do it justice because this is like spiritual prepping.
It's like survival and preparedness in the spiritual realm and in the mental realm and the psychological realm to make sure that you are ready for what is coming.
And it's going to be absolutely biblical.
So each day I'm here to give you a piece of wisdom that can help you through this and also to help you face this future without fear, rather with a sense of courage and confidence.
And in fact, I received a lot of really positive feedback from yesterday's sermon.
I just want to thank those of you who posted things like this.
Quote, Thank you, Mike, for that wonderful sermon.
I was so surprised and impressed by the beauty and relevance of it.
Your words were perfectly phrased and your interpretations of Scripture and your song lyrics so perceptive.
All in all, this, your first sermon, was powerful and inspiring, and I thank you for giving it, and I thank God for giving you your words.
Absolutely.
Thank you so much for that comment.
And then one other person said, Wow, Mike Adams, you got holy bars.
Question, do you want to learn to holy drill?
If so, leak the lyrics, and I will take into the studio and pour gasoline on it.
I don't know who posted that, but yes, I would love for you to take the lyrics and pour gasoline on them.
I assume you mean to jazz it up somehow and do something really explosively amazing with the lyrics.
So yes, please reach out.
I'd love to give you the lyrics.
In fact, I was kind of secretly hoping that maybe somebody out there could remix the song once I lay down all the final tracks.
I could give you the stems, like the individual track wave files, and you could remix the song and probably make it way cooler than I can by myself.
But if anybody wants to reach us about that, if you want to work on the song, Or contribute to the song.
Remember, the song is called God is With Us.
And you can just email us at situationupdateatprotonmail.com.
That's situationupdate, all one word.
Situationupdateatprotonmail.com.
And I can't wait to get that song out to you.
But anyway, the point here is, folks, I know that not everybody wants to sit down and hear what they think is a sermon.
Or, you know, they don't want to hear, maybe you've been in church and it was boring or it didn't really mean much when you were there last or what have you.
I guarantee you, I am not that pastor, you know what I mean?
I give it to you with a fresh perspective, but with the sense of abundance, the sense of wisdom, Of hope and inspiration and preparedness and practical skills to help you get through this.
That's what this is all about.
It's just that I realize that I can't do this without God on my side.
And no matter what kind of faith you practice, if you do practice faith, then you share that idea that the Creator is with us, that we are expressions of the Creator in fact.
That's what gives us the authority to even talk about faith.
Because we are children of God.
We are expressions of God and His love for life.
That's why we exist, because He loves life and He granted us life.
I mean, I don't mean to get into a whole sermon right here.
I'm just saying, if you want to hear a really powerful sermon, but...
Not like a traditional sermon.
Didn't listen to my broadcast from yesterday.
Granted, today's sermon is not as good as yesterday's sermon.
Yesterday's sermon was like 10.
10 out of 10.
Today's sermon is like 7.
Okay, still valuable.
It's just not a 10.
Just being honest about it.
But maybe tomorrow will be a 8, 9, maybe I'll hit a 10 again at some point.
I don't know.
It just depends on how the Spirit moves through me, frankly.
So we'll see where it goes.
But I just want to let you know about the format.
Again, the breaking news, current events up front, followed by a sermon, and then typically followed by an interview.
That's the format for the next 99 days.
There's a user on Twitter named MJTruthUltra.
And he posts a lot of really great comments and content items.
And he said something today that I want to share with you because I think it really resonates with what a lot of us are feeling.
He said, someone asked me if I was scared of what's coming.
He says, listen, we can all feel something really big is on the horizon.
We all feel it.
I think it's fair to say it's becoming increasingly difficult to focus on things in our normal lives because we know it will be world-changing.
It's a tiresome task, carrying this feeling around every day, trying to compartmentalize it, while navigating our busy daily lives, trying to take care of our families and our households.
While I don't know what tomorrow brings, I have, for the past several months, been living more vividly in these moments.
Each day becomes more and more precious than the last.
I kiss and hug my kids differently now.
I hold my wife longer than I used to.
I find myself appreciating each bite of food like it may be the last.
Because deep down in my spirit I feel something coming.
I know it.
The only reason I'm able to hold myself together during all of this is because of my faith, he says.
My faith is my rock.
God is my rock.
My faith tethers me to that rock.
That way I can remain unshaken.
So whenever you're feeling overwhelmed, it's just too much, like you can't breathe, be still.
Take deep breaths, close your eyes, visualize yourself standing on that rock of unshakable faith and say, God, I trust you to keep me still.
And with that post, with that said, I will share something with you that I have not shared publicly yet.
And this is part of what has led me to these current activities, the song, God is with us, and my 100 days of sermons.
I received a knowing many months ago, a knowing that We would be okay.
Despite all the horrible things that are going to happen, this isn't a get-out-of-jail-free card.
We're not going to dodge the insanity that's coming.
But despite all the craziness that's coming, and despite all the revolts in the cities, and probably the post-election chaos will be very bad in America, despite all of that, we're going to make it through this.
We're going to be okay.
And we're going to come out on top because God is with us.
And I can't even rationally explain some of that.
It's a matter of faith.
But it's also a feeling of a presence, that there's an angelic presence overlooking our lives and our existence, that there is a determined presence Deliberate plan for us, for each and every one of us, you and I and all those around us, there's a reason why we are here right now.
And whether or not you believe in the Christian God or the Muslim God or the Sikh God or the Buddhism or none at all, I think you know that there is a cosmic truth that is larger than any of us or even all of us together.
There is cosmic law at work here right now.
And cosmic law is now bending toward truth.
And that means that those who are the deceivers, the death pushers, the destroyers, They're being dismantled and defeated.
That's a lot of D's right there.
And yes, it's D for Democrat, but D for destruction, D for death.
There is a dismantling of the D's.
The demons, the demonic entities that have infested the skin bags of those who sacrificed themselves to Moloch.
This is changing.
We are now witnessing and living through this change.
And if we are not spiritually prepared, folks, we could go mad.
We could lose our minds.
Because what you're about to see is...
Just unbelievable.
In fact, it was funny because Laura Loomer tweeted something, and she meant it as a joke, but she said that, I've got a scoop.
It turns out that at the DNC convention coming up, there's going to be a black trans abortion doctor performing a live abortion on stage with a pregnant white woman.
They're going to do a live abortion on stage at the DNC. And I had to think about that one.
I had to think.
It sounds crazy, but then again, then again, we just saw the Olympics, right?
The Wokelympics, where they were serving up a, like a pedophile cannibalist, blue Smurf dinner with a bunch of demonic drag queens pretending to reenact the Last Supper depicting Christ.
And we're like, well, if they could do that, they could probably do a live abortion on stage and just call it, you know, a celebration.
So, You know things are crazy when you hear a comment like that and you can't tell if it's a joke or not.
Because it kind of sounds like something the Democrats would do.
So just be on alert for that, folks.
Be on alert.
Now, kind of related to that is the fact that Amazon.com has announced a Mark of the Beast payment system.
And it's called Amazon One.
I know, I know, right?
Like, it's the one, the one ring to bind them all.
If you go to one.amazon.com, and that's spelled out like O-N-E, one.amazon.com, you will see there, I'm looking at it, there's an image of a young man with his palm outstretched.
And it says, a fast, free identity service that allows you to enter, identify, and pay using only your Palm.
Yeah, exactly.
And if you scroll down, it says, use your Palm will activate your profile the first time you use any Amazon One device.
And it shows images.
In fact, let me just, I want to show you these images here.
But if you look at this, here's a woman with her palm, and she's getting her palm read, and it's magic.
Look at all the little magical things happening wherever she goes.
She uses her palm, mark of the beast, and a high five.
And so it says, Amazon One will get you through your day better than ever.
Yeah.
What could be wrong or creepy about that?
Having your palm read.
Seriously, having your palm be your password to your money, right?
So it says, your palm, your choice, right?
So Amazon is pro-choice as long as you're in the Mark of the Beast system.
It says, no two palms are alike.
Yeah, your palm is a unique part of you.
It doesn't go anywhere you don't.
Oh, so you think...
And can't be used by anyone but you.
Oh, well, they have not seen enough crime shows.
But anyway, usually your palm goes with you.
But what if I were to say to Amazon and all these leftists, you know, yeah, okay, every palm is unique, but did you know that every palm of an unborn baby is also unique?
You know why?
Because that unborn baby is a unique human being.
That has a genetic code that is also unique.
No other person on the planet, unless they have an identical twin there, has the same exact genetic code.
Not the mother, not the father, not anybody else.
And so aborting that baby is stuffing out the life of a unique individual with a unique palm, by the way.
But this kind of palm, mark of the beast payment system, of course this is designed to enslave you and control you.
And if you are thinking about using the Amazon One palm payment system, then follow these steps very carefully.
What you should do is you should hold your palm out in front of you about 12 inches from your face, okay?
Grab your wrist with your other hand, and then slap yourself, silly, a couple of times until you come to your senses.
Just slap the crap out of your face.
That's the palm treatment that you need to stop you thinking that you want to get signed up to use your palm as your password for your bank account.
My goodness.
Now, on the assassination attempt targeting Donald Trump, some new videos have come out.
One in particular is about a nine-minute video from a user named RealDJStu724, I think is his name.
Now this 9 plus minute video shows some really extraordinary things.
And one of the mysteries about this video is that it appears to show within a couple of seconds after the main shooting of the rounds, it shows what looks like the visual and audio signature of a suppressed rifle being fired from inside one of the first floor offices of the same building on which Crooks is crawling.
It's not entirely clear.
It's not conclusive, but it raises a lot of questions.
But even aside from that, this nine minute video shows some pretty extraordinary things in terms of the fact that the police knew about all of this.
I mean, they knew about crooks, and they knew someone was on the roof for several minutes before Trump began to speak.
And actually, there's a user on YouTube who has used that nine-minute video to put together a simultaneous viewing process.
And I want to actually play a little bit of this for you.
He knitted together Trump speaking with this nine minute video and the result is quite remarkable because you can see then what the cops are doing As Trump is speaking, and you can see what was going down, and it makes you question, why didn't the cops sound the alarm and stop Trump from speaking?
Why didn't they take Trump off the stage?
I mean, they knew somebody was on this building.
Now, this video, I'm going to play a few minutes for you here.
It's very shaky.
So what I did is I took this nine-minute video from...
That user, RealDJStu, his name is Stuart.
Dr.
Chris Martinson spoke with him.
Anyway, I took that nine-minute video and I put it into an AI anti-shake video algorithm.
And it processed it for several hours on a high-end NVIDIA card, by the way.
And it created a smoothed out version of that video, which is about 1.5 gigabytes.
I've posted that video file on Telegram.
And my name on Telegram is RealHealthRanger.
So if you go to t.me slash RealHealthRanger...
That'll take you to Telegram and you can download that video.
Now, what's interesting about that video is that as you're watching it, you're going to see, like, Stuart has put his username in red letters along the bottom.
You're going to see that jumping around, jumping around all throughout the video.
And that's because the rest of the video is stabilized.
So the AI engine has recalculated and stabilized everything else in the frame, but it caused those words at the bottom then to jump around relative to the background.
So actually, as you're seeing those words jump around, then you're actually seeing the correction or the stabilization compensation.
So I'm going to ask my editor here actually if they can just plug in a few seconds of that video to show you what I'm talking about.
There's somebody in this building.
And it's not easy, because we have millions and millions of people that have conversations with me here.
Dangerous people.
Criminals.
So next, we're going to go to the video I mentioned earlier, which is the alignment of these two videos, which is the Trump speaking at the podium, aligned in time with the nine-minute video from Stuart.
And this was put together by someone on YouTube called Gray Hughes Investigates.
And he's done a very, very good job of this.
I just want to play a couple minutes here so you can see the alignment of these two videos.
You can see that police were very much aware of something happening Weird.
Something suspicious was going on and they never stopped the Trump speech.
Check this out.
Oh, and I have to warn you guys, there's some profanity in this video.
I'm going to leave it in because it's...
An historical record of a very traumatizing historical event.
And yes, so people were using a lot of profanity.
I apologize if that's offensive to anybody, but it's part of what happened.
So give it a listen.
It was very united, and they said there's never been anything like it.
They've never seen a movement like this.
Make America great again.
You know, Joe Biden talks about, we have to stop MAGA. MAGA means make America great again, Joe.
It means make America greater.
That's all we want to do.
If he was doing the job, I wouldn't even...
There's something going on in this building.
Oh my god.
There's somebody in this building.
And it's not easy.
Because we have millions and millions of people in our country that should be here.
Dangerous people.
We have everyone else.
We have So
that's what I love.
That's the lowest point, and that comes right from me.
Government service comes right out of border control.
Think of it, Dad.
the lowest amount of what they're going to be patient ever can be recorded in the day.
Amen.
Make yourself small, drop.
I don't know what's going on.
I don't know what's going on.
All right.
I know that was a long clip, almost three minutes, but it's very important to see the context So you saw that for several minutes before the shooting, the police, they knew there was somebody on that building.
For several minutes, they knew that people were calling out that there's somebody there.
And then later on, closer to the shooting, they said, oh, he's got a gun, he's got a gun.
But Everybody in the immediate vicinity, including numerous law enforcement officers, knew somebody was there.
Why didn't they call it in?
Why didn't they call it in?
How come Secret Service didn't know?
How come there wasn't a code word given to remove the president from the podium and get him undercover?
There's a question for you.
You know, it's crazy.
It's almost like the public's like, he's on the roof!
He's on the roof!
And the cops are like, what?
Is he over here?
And they're like, looking off into the forest.
No, no, no!
He's on the roof!
He's on the roof!
And the cops are like, is he underneath here?
And looking under the car.
You know, it's almost like a really bad comedy skit.
Of course, it's not comedy.
It's tragedy.
And Trump was almost killed.
Only by the grace of God was he spared.
But What is wrong with this picture?
And we don't have all the answers yet.
I can't tell you what the right answers are for any of that at the moment.
We are investigating And perhaps we'll get to some better answers, but I will encourage you, if you can go to my Telegram channel, and if you want to download the original stabilized video of this, it's much easier to watch, and so you can pick up a lot more details in the stabilized version.
It's actually quite good.
But you know, one of the questions I have in watching all this is that even after the initial eight rounds were fired and then 9 and 10, 10 being the counter-sniper round, we believe.
It's people walking around.
It's like, what part of, you know, hit the dirt do you not get?
I mean, seriously, if you were at a public event like that, and you heard somebody open fire with very clear two volleys of rounds, you know, like eight rounds in this case, would you still be walking around?
Because it seems like that's a Darwin Award type of thing.
If you're walking around and there's gunfire going off and you don't hit the dirt, you might not be qualified to continue to live.
I mean, I don't get it.
I mean, maybe I'm being too critical because everybody's confused, but if I hear gunfire, I'm hitting the ground, folks.
I don't know why that's complicated.
And frankly, everybody that I know who's a veteran or law enforcement, He knows that, you know, you seek cover, folks.
You seek cover.
The guy filming the video, he's like, I'm getting behind the tree.
And he told people, get down, get down, make yourself small.
I mean, he was actually, that's Stewart.
He was actually giving people good advice.
And then people were walking along right after the shooting.
He's like, guys, you might want to get down.
And he should have added, like, you morons, you know.
Or, I don't know, just stand there and get your head shot off or whatever.
But I don't get it.
Why don't people get down?
I mean, even Kanye knew that.
Get down, girl.
Go ahead.
Get down.
Was that from the Gold Digger song?
Is that what that was from?
Get down, girl.
Go ahead.
Get down.
Anyway, Kanye knew it.
But somehow these Trump attendees don't know to hit the dirt.
Okay, moving on to other news.
You may be aware that Archbishop Carlo...
Maria Viganò was excommunicated from the Catholic Church because Viganò is the one voice within the Church who has been telling the truth about the Luciferian takeover of the Catholic institution or the Catholic Church, well, the Vatican, let's say, and the leadership of the Vatican who served Lucifer, which has become obvious to anybody paying attention.
But Viganot has put out a statement that is just, it's incredible.
It's a statement following the sacrileges and scandals of the Paris Olympic Games.
And he starts out, he says, the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games is only the latest in a long series of vile attacks on God, the Catholic religion, and natural morality by the anti-Christic elite.
Yes, indeed, indeed.
He says, I mean, it just goes on.
But what's most amazing about this statement, which I completely agree with, is he says, the opening ceremonies of the Olympic Games have given scandal not only because of the arrogant display of the ugly and the obscene, but because of the infernal subversion of good and evil.
The insane claim to be able to blaspheme and desecrate everything, even what is most sacred.
In the name of an ideology of death, ugliness, and lies that defies Christ and scandalizes those who recognize him as Lord and God.
Well said!
Well said, Viganot.
That's just perfectly stated, but he goes on.
Gets even better.
It is no coincidence that the one sponsoring this revolting carnival is an emissary of the World Economic Forum, Emmanuel Macron, who passes off a transvestite as his own wife with impunity, just as Barack Obama is accompanied by a muscular man in a wig.
Oh, he said it!
It is the reign of mystification, of falsehood, of fiction erected as a totem, in which man is disfigured precisely because he was created in the image and likeness of God.
Wow!
Wow!
Tolerance cannot be the alibi for the systematic destruction of Christian society.
But you see what he's saying.
I've said very much the same thing, that the reason the mentally ill left, they love to desecrate the human body and mutilate the genitalia of children and even mutilate their own bodies is because we are created in the image of God.
And since we are expressions of God, we are all God's children, they want to abort God's children and mutilate and destroy that which is beautiful.
They want to take a beautiful young woman, let's say, and cut off her breasts and mutilate her and put her on chemicals and turn her into a scarred, maimed man.
And they do, of course, the inverse of that, mutilating a man and claiming he's now a woman.
But isn't it interesting that Viganot calls out the so-called wife of Macron, who is obviously a transvestite.
This is not a pop quiz or anything, but everybody knows.
Come on.
Everybody knows.
And then he says, just as Barack Obama is accompanied by a muscular man in a wig.
Hey, Vigano says what everybody knows.
And then Vigano says, it is therefore necessary for Christians to organize around the world with concrete actions.
Which is exactly what we are doing, right?
We are organizing.
We are coming together in faith.
We're coming together to reject the demonic influences over our world.
Viganò says, first and foremost, with a boycott of the Olympic Games and all their sponsors, somebody sent me a meme that called it because they had this really obese experience.
as a stand-in for Christ at the Last Supper.
Did you see that, how really obese she was?
So somebody sent me a meme, said it's the Ozempic Games, not Olympic Games.
Anyway, he goes on, quote, It is equally necessary for companies not subservient to globalism to revoke their sponsorship contracts and for delegations and individual athletes to withdraw from the Games.
We must expect and demand that those responsible for this intolerable bullying be held accountable for their actions as well as for the corruption that also accompanies this event. .
And finally, the homosexual set designer who gave birth to this blasphemous and vulgar spectacle must repay the fee that...
Macroniades charged French taxpayers.
I guess he's referring to the Macron administration there.
I urge Catholics to make reparation by prayer, fasting, and penance for the outrages perpetrated against our Lord Jesus Christ and against our holy religion.
And he says a lot of other things too, but this is one of the most powerful statements, probably, frankly, the most powerful statement ever made by Archbishop Viganot Who has been excommunicated from the Catholic Church.
Well, you know, so be it.
If you're a member of a church and that church now serves Satan, then you should be excommunicated from it because you are always under obligation to tell the truth.
And you are never under any obligation to hide Satanism within your own church if your church turns to that.
You must expose it, which is exactly what Carlo Maria Viganò is doing.
So God bless him.
By the way, just seeing this statement from Archbishop Vigano, and of course I read for you the English version, but there's probably a Latin version, I would imagine, and an Italian version, and maybe even a French version out there.
But it just reminds me, have you ever thought about the calendars?
Have you ever thought about the naming of the months and the calendar and why the months are off?
For example, Well, September or septiembre in Espanol, septo means what?
What does septo mean in Latin?
It means seven, doesn't it?
So why is it month number nine?
And then what follows September is octubre or october.
What does oct mean in Latin?
It means eight.
So why is october the tenth month?
Same thing with November.
Nova or nove means nine.
So why is November the 11th month?
And diciembre means, well, dec means 10, obviously, like dec, decimal, decimeters, you know, whatever.
Deciliter, des or dec means 10.
So why is that the 12th month?
Well, the answer is because part of the answer is Julius Caesar.
Julius Caesar, at least as I understand history, I'm not an expert in Roman history, but as I understand it, Julius Caesar had extra months inserted into the calendar, one of them named after himself, July.
July is named after Julius Caesar, or in Espanol Julio.
And this is all rather obvious when you realize that the month of August used to be named sextilis.
Yeah, sextilis, which means, of course, six.
But then why is August month number eight?
Again, because somebody put two extra months in there.
And July, if you search this online, July was originally named Quintilis, which in quint means five.
So you see, somebody stuck some extra months in there.
It's like, wait a minute, we've been rolling with that ever since?
No wonder everybody's confused.
November should be month number nine, not eleven.
And then you have some of the months like March, which in Espanol is Marso.
Marso is Mars, the god of war.
Whoa, all of a sudden there's a month named after a god?
Of war?
Yes, indeed.
Yeah, well, it's not the only one.
January, or Enero, is named after Janus, the Roman god.
So, you see?
As you recite the calendar, you're actually paying homage to Roman gods and Julius Caesar, it turns out.
And if you ever wanted any evidence that human civilization, at least Western civilization, is completely out of touch with nature and natural cycles and the movement of the sun and the moon and everything else, if you wanted any evidence at all, just look at the nightmare that the calendar has become.
It's like, this month's got 31 days and then it's got 30 after that, but sometimes not.
Sometimes it's 28.
Well, why is it 28?
Well, it's mostly 28.
Every once in a while, it's 29.
Well, how do you know?
Oh, it's a leap year, except there's a leap century leap year where it's not 29 and it's 28.
And then we add a few seconds and then, well, what about the next one?
That's 31.
Oh, okay.
Why is that?
You know, it's like, so you people really don't know what's happening in the cosmos, do you?
You have no freaking clue.
You know, the Chinese calendar makes a lot more sense.
It's the lunar calendar.
And if you base your calendar on the cycles of the moon, everything makes sense, actually, it turns out.
And it's interesting that the Buddhist religion follows, or for the most part, follows the lunar calendar, and they have certain prayers and certain kinds of celebrations based on the lunar calendar, and it always makes sense.
It's like, yep, when the full moon is here, you know, this time of year the moon is full, boom, you have the lunar celebration.
And you don't have to fudge it all the time like we do in the Gregorian calendar where nothing makes any sense and the months are all named wrong.
It's like they're off by two.
And I love it how Western civilization claims to be rooted in science, but it has a calendar that's like a hodgepodge, like a patchwork of torn-up quilts or something.
It's like, we patched this together with duct tape and bailing wire, and we called it time, you know?
It's like, you're morons.
It doesn't resemble time at all.
There's no symmetry.
There's no natural beauty in it.
This is a nightmare.
You want to have months?
They should follow the moon.
One lunar cycle, one month.
There you go.
Very simple.
And by the way, even today, you think about in the name of science, you hear all these climate cultists say, oh my god, the climate's changing because people are driving cars.
And they don't look at the sun, do they?
They don't look at the sun.
The sun's going through solar cycles, it turns out.
The sun's radiation is the single most important driver of surface temperature of planet Earth.
The second factor being water vapor, by the way.
Not carbon dioxide, but the entire climate cultist movement in Western science refuses to look at the sun.
Seriously, that's how crazy they are.
They don't even pay attention to the sun.
What sun?
There's no sun.
They're just like, it's you driving the truck, you know?
It's your fault.
You're changing the planet, but not the sun, not...
But not this giant fiery hydrogen ball in the sky, this nuclear fusion system that's generating incredible heat.
And energy, and that is, by mass, you know, I don't know how many thousands of times larger than our planet.
I don't have the exact number.
But it's, I mean, Earth is tiny compared to the Sun.
And yet, all the scientists on Earth are like, ah, the Sun couldn't be involved at all, possibly.
No, that's impossible.
Couldn't be the Sun.
It's far away.
Well, not that far.
It's...
It's close enough to be hot, you know, close enough to warm the planet and melt ice, so, you know, you probably should pay attention to the sun's cycles.
Of course, the climate cultists are also afraid of water.
Every time that ice melts, they lose their minds.
It's melting!
It's melting!
Oh my god, water!
Water!
There's too much water!
What if we had a whole planet of water?
They cry and they pout.
And like, Earth is the water planet, you morons.
It's like 75% water.
But they're terrified of water because they want everything to be frozen in ice.
They say ice is good.
Water is bad.
And they say carbon dioxide is bad.
Well, what do you need to grow plants?
You need carbon dioxide, sunlight, and water.
So, of course, water is bad to them.
They're like, you know, anything that provides life on our planet, they have to say it's bad.
Bad water.
Bad water.
I mean, I've never seen a whole group of lunatic scientists declare war against a phase of matter.
You know, I mean, water, like most materials, has multiple phases.
You know, you have the gas phase.
Water vapor phase.
You have the liquid phase, which is liquid flowing water as we know it, and then you have the solid phase, which is ice, right?
And so the climate change cult, they're actually at war with the phase of liquid water, and they want all water to be in the frozen solid phase, which is the phase where everything dies.
By the way, you can't grow plants in ice.
You could try it, but it doesn't work.
So, these are actually phase cultists, if you think about it.
They hate the sun, they hate carbon dioxide, and they hate liquid water, and they want everything to be frozen solid and dead.
And that's why the climate cult is a death cult.
It's part of the demonism and Satanism that Archbishop Viganò is talking about.
When they say that they're all concerned about the climate, no, they're not.
They want to kill all life on Earth.
That's what they're saying.
Notice they don't really call themselves green anymore because if all the water froze into solid ice, nothing would be green.
And if they removed all the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, nothing would be green.
Because all the green would die without carbon dioxide because photosynthesis would not function.
So they're not even green.
When they say green energy, it's not green at all.
It's black.
It's death.
It's death.
If you don't have liquid water...
If you don't have sunlight, if you don't have photosynthesis, if you don't have carbon dioxide, the planet dies, and that's exactly what the climate cultists want, because they are a death cult.
And as I've said before, the geoengineering or terraforming operations that are targeting planet Earth are almost like an alien invasion of Where they wanted to colonize the planet, but first they have to convert it to their atmosphere, you know, to their climate, like a colder frozen ice ball planet.
So they convince the humans to destroy or sequester all the CO2 and freeze the planet, you know, and to block the sun and make it more dim and dead, right?
It's, again, it's almost like a science fiction movie, like aliens want to alter the planet.
And it's interesting that that's come up because I have an interview for you today that is with Randall Fitzgerald, who has written books about the evidence of alien visitation.
And he's a very interesting author who has a very heightened sense of curiosity, but is also very much driven by the evidence, the hard evidence, not a bunch of stories, but Not stuff like, oh, I underwent hypnosis, and then in hypnosis, then here's what the aliens told me.
Not to say that that can't be legitimate, but that's not what this is.
This is more hardcore evidence that Randall Fitzgerald has put together in a couple of books.
One is called The Alien in the Mirror.
Which gets into the theories of, you know, transpermia and the universality of life in our cosmos.
Like, we are not alone.
You know, those kinds of topics.
So that's going to be a very interesting interview, especially in the context that I'm giving sermons now.
In fact, sermon two here is coming up here shortly.
And so giving sermons based on Christian teachings and And I think that most Christian teachings do not really talk about other civilizations in our cosmos.
That's just not a focus of a lot of Christian teachings.
It's pretty much Earth, right?
It's pretty much the Middle East of Earth, come to think of it.
You start at Genesis and keep on reading, and you're basically getting a tour of modern-day Israel and Jordan and Syria and all that, right?
Except it wasn't called that at the time.
It was the Assyrians and Mesopotamia and Babylonians and everything else.
So, just reminds you, by the way, maps change, folks.
Maps change.
They are not fixed.
But anyway, we are not alone, almost certainly.
The cosmos is much larger than just us.
Human beings are not the only beings in this world.
I was going to say world, in this universe created by our Creator, because I think God has a much bigger vision for our cosmos than just one planet.
In fact, if God's taking a look at this planet right now, he might be a little bit disappointed.
He's like, the Paris Olympics?
What was that all about?
He's like, cosmically, it just failed.
So that's going to be a very interesting interview.
But of course, first we have the sermon, sermon number two, Coming up here, which is about humility.
And we quote from Proverbs.
Yes, some very good stuff.
I love Proverbs because it's so information dense.
There's so much wisdom in so few words that you get a lot more mileage for your reading effort.
So if you're going to read one book in the Bible, read Proverbs.
And every line is like a full buffet.
It's amazing.
Okay, we're going to jump into that shortly.
Just a quick plug for one of our sponsors today, which is the company called Juvent, J-U-V-E-N-T dot com, which almost sounds like another month.
It's like we have, you know, April, May, June, July, and then Juvent, and then August, September.
Like, there should be a Juvent month.
Why not?
If Julius Caesar can put in a month.
Maybe Juvent can put it.
Anyway, the Juvent company makes a really remarkable physical device that is helping so many tens of thousands of people around the world right now.
And it's a plate that you step on and it generates micro impacts that vibrate throughout your body.
But the micro impact, the actual height of the impact is less than the width of a human hair.
And as a result of this micro-impact surging through your feet, through your bones, your connective tissue, your joints, and also being felt throughout your organs, this moves things in a very positive way, and it stimulates in a very positive way, and it provides what might be called a kind of vitamin, a kinetic vitamin or kinetic nutrition, because as we tend to age, we lack typically the same physical...
We're not as active.
We're not jumping around on bicycles or pogo sticks or whatever.
So you're not getting the vibration that your body needs to build strong bones and build strong connective tissue and move lymph and all these things that are related to your normal functioning immune system, among other things, a healthy cardiovascular system.
So this device, this Juvent plate has some extraordinary health supportive benefits.
And it was created by an inventor of medical technologies that have been approved by the FDA in terms of cardiovascular inventions in a previous company.
But now he's got the Juvent plate.
So check it out at Juvent.com.
That's J-U-V-E-N-T.com.
And know that I use the Juvent plate daily and I have been using it daily since the year 2016 when I first met Pete and found out about this technology.
And he was kind enough to loan me one of these.
And then after that, I had to have more support.
So I bought one, and I've been telling everybody about it ever since, and it's helped a tremendous number of people.
So check it out, juvent.com.
And aside from the kinetic nutrition of the Juvent Plate, if you want to access the most heavily scrutinized laboratory-tested superfoods, supplements, storable foods, organics, personal care products, and much more, we offer that at healthrangerstore.com.
And as you know, I despise artificial colors, artificial fragrance.
I despise MSG and fillers and toxins and garbage that's in the food supply and in the personal care products and cosmetics and all that crap out there.
So, I formulate products, and I have others formulate too.
I didn't formulate everything, but I'm involved in the formulation of many of the key products at HealthRangerStore.com, and I approve the formulations of other products, and together we formulate the most pristine, clean food and superfood products to help support your health.
And you can find all of those at healthrangerstore.com.
And by shopping there, you'll also be supporting this platform and our message and our efforts to...
Well, our efforts used to be just to tell the truth.
Now it's like, we've got to save humanity together.
All of us, we have to save humanity from the forces of darkness and evil that are trying to actually destroy our civilization and our species.
That's what this has come to.
Isn't it amazing?
It started out as a much smaller battle, like, we're just fighting for free speech, or we're just fighting for our political candidates.
Now it's like, we're fighting for the existence of humanity, and it's no exaggeration.
This is where we are.
This is what it has come to.
So, hey, if you want to join us in that fight to help defend humanity, where God wins, you know, the Creator wins, and life wins, And we dismantle the death instruments, the powers of darkness, the principalities of Lucifer.
You want to dismantle all that?
Well, join me in this effort.
Spread the word.
Support our store.
Support our sponsors.
Or just share this podcast.
Just help educate others.
Just join Team Humanity.
And together, we can make it through this.
Alright, with that said, now the sermon is coming up next.
I hope you will enjoy it.
And then, unless I've gone on too long here, we also plan to publish the interview with Randall Fitzgerald.
Alright, thank you for listening.
Enjoy.
Welcome to the second sermon in this new series.
I'm releasing 100 sermons in 100 days.
I'm Mike Adams.
Appreciate you joining me today.
And the topic for today is humility versus pride and what we need to do in order to be ready for what's coming.
Because there's going to be a significant event in 100 days, give or take.
And it's not just the obvious event that you're thinking of.
It's not just the election, for example.
But also there are things that I know that are coming in about 100 days that will be, well, we'll just say significant.
So if you missed it, yesterday's sermon, which was sermon number one, was about the armor of God, the molecular armor of God.
Citing Ephesians chapter 6 verse, well I start with 10 but also 11 of course and other verses.
And that's definitely worth taking a look at because it lays out the core philosophy of what we believe and what we teach, which is that if we are to act with faith in alignment with God's wishes for us, we must also be of pure blood.
We must purify our bodies to the greatest extent that we can in terms of avoiding toxins, avoiding pollutants, avoiding pollutants, avoiding pesticides and herbicides and glyphosate and heavy metals and toxic junk food and all the plasticizer chemicals and all the toxic fragrance ingredients, you know, the toxic food coloring ingredients.
All of these toxins that I've been teaching about for over 20, I think it's coming up on almost 25 years actually.
There's a book I wrote many years ago called Grocery Warning – It's all related.
But I believe that we must be clean in our foods, in our supplements, in our superfoods.
And in our daily habits, we have to have clean water, for example.
We need to be able to detoxify our physical bodies so that our brains will work better and then our minds work better.
That's the non-physical part.
And then our spirit works better.
We literally are more effective in body, mind, and soul, Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost.
We're more effective when we are more pure and when we have eliminated the toxins that cause sickness and disease.
So we'll talk about that a lot more in other sermons coming up.
Today's sermon is about humility versus pride.
And I'm going to quote from Proverbs because...
Well, Proverbs...
In fact, I'm going to quote from Proverbs a lot in these sermons because there's so much wisdom in such a compact form, right?
But if you go to Proverbs 11 and you just read the first four lines...
Or maybe we'll read a little bit more, but it says very clearly, So it means that if you carry out your life with a sense of honesty in the way that you deal with others, that you operate with integrity, that you pay the bills that are legitimately due to you.
If you borrow money from someone, you pay them back.
If you promise to pay them a certain amount, then you pay the full amount.
So Then God will find favor with you.
Just for being honest.
That's kind of cool, isn't it?
To note that you'll have credit with God just for being a decent person?
It's like, yes!
Actually, yes!
Because so many people are not decent people.
So many people are dishonest or cheaters or liars or deceivers.
And of course, they don't get any credit for that at all.
They get the scorn of God.
But if you just treat other people with a sense of honesty in your business, in your personal life, in your faith, in everything that you do, then God will grant you his favor.
And I've said before, in other formats, that God's favor is a cosmic currency.
So we think about currencies in things like dollars, which is a counterfeit fake currency, or some people might think about currency in terms of cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin, which is a digital form of representing value.
But none of those go with you when you pass away from this realm, right?
When you transition into the heavenly realm, do you bring Bitcoin with you?
No.
Do you bring dollars with you?
Oh, for sure, no.
I mean, there might be a special place in hell for bringing hyperinflated dollars with you or something.
Like, yeah, you can bring all your money to hell, and there's hyperinflation in hell.
You can't afford anything.
Oh my gosh!
That's how crazy that could be.
But the currency that counts with God is the currency of God's favor.
So as you are earning that currency, which you can only earn through your behavior, through your honest actions, and you can't deceive God because He knows everything.
So you can't deceive yourself.
You can't lie to yourself.
You are either acting with integrity, you know, or you're not.
And God knows, and you know, and that's what counts as your currency.
That's what you do take with you.
And that's not reflected in your bank account.
You can't log into, you know, J.P. Morgan, Chase, Rockefeller, you know, globalist bank and see how much currency you have with God.
Doesn't exist there.
Only God can tell you how much currency you have with God.
And you either earn it or you lose it every day with the actions that you take and the decisions that you make.
Now, if we continue with Proverbs 11, it says, when pride comes, then comes disgrace.
When pride comes, then comes disgrace.
So those who learn to or choose to operate their lives with a sense of pride, thinking that I'm the only one that matters or I'm the best or I'm responsible for all the success or whatever,
you see this a lot with like Pop culture stars who think that they're such amazing people because all this success is showered upon them and they tend to act with this sense of personal pride rather than humility.
And then what happens often?
They fall.
They fall from their perch of power.
They fall into disgrace because their success was never rooted in spiritual fundamentals that would allow it to have longevity or sustainability.
So they fall from that power and they end in disgrace.
Now, what's interesting about this is that any of us may have gone through this pattern in our own lives, especially perhaps in our younger years.
Many of us, when we weren't as wise as we are now, right?
Because we tend to gain wisdom over time.
But perhaps when you were younger, you might have thought that, oh, you don't need God.
You know, you're doing great all by yourself.
And the pride, you know, you did this.
You built that.
You did this.
I know I used to think that way when I was younger as well.
And then at some point you will experience a fall.
Something will collapse.
The rug will be pulled out from under you and you will find out that, guess what?
You're not all that.
You're not all superhuman.
You're not above God.
Because it is from the place of humility that we build the foundation for long-term legitimate success in life.
And I don't mean that monetarily.
I mean living life as a successful human being, contributing to the health and joy and awakening of others around you.
That's what matters in terms of scoring this life, and that only comes from a place of humility, not from pride.
So that's the next line from Proverbs 11.
Well, I'll read the two.
When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.
And four more lines that I think are really relevant to this.
The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.
Wealth is worthless in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death.
Wow!
That's so powerful!
It's kind of what I was just saying.
Wealth is worthless in the day of wrath.
When you are judged by God, your bank account doesn't matter.
It's irrelevant.
It doesn't matter.
Oh, you have all these treasury bonds?
Really?
Oh, you're a treasury billionaire bondholder?
Who cares?
God doesn't care about that.
It doesn't matter.
It's not going to save you.
What's going to save you has nothing to do with that.
Righteousness delivers from death, is what it says.
And that is standing in truth with God.
And that is what grants you entrance into the kingdom of heaven.
That's what grants you immortality.
That's what makes your life worth living beyond the lifetime itself.
That the pattern of righteousness and truth and love and light that you lay down during this life will outlive this life because it comes with you as the currency of God's favor that has been granted to you through this life.
So, it says it all right there.
This is why I have a hard time reading the Bible.
You know why?
Because I read, like, four lines, and I'm like, whoa, I'm so blown away, and then I have to think about those four lines.
Now, of course, there are parts of the Bible that are not so interesting.
It's like, oh, here's all the family tree of this family and that family.
I'm like, oh, okay, okay.
Whatever.
That doesn't get me super excited to just hear about all the genealogy.
But this part right here in Proverbs, this is so intense.
I can hardly read it without just stopping, and I have to process it.
It's so powerful.
Wealth is worthless in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death.
So what are you pursuing in your life?
If you're pursuing material wealth, You're doing nothing to forward your progress in God's eyes.
Nothing.
But if you stand in righteousness, then you earn, in essence, spiritual immortality.
And that, it's so valuable you can't put a price on it.
And no one can buy it.
All the globalists in the world with all the printed fake currency money in the world, they can't buy salvation, can they?
They can't.
Now maybe they can find a church that's willing to...
Take a bunch of money.
Hey, here's a million dollars.
Will you bless me, Father?
And yeah, there might be some corrupt churches out there, the same ones pushing vaccines, that would say, okay, we'll bless you or we'll, you know, ordain you even whatever for enough money.
But that's not acting with God's permission, is it?
That's acting in contradiction to what God teaches.
And so that doesn't count.
It's like they're buying counterfeit salvation, which is really funny because they're using counterfeit currency, which is the dollar.
So if you want to buy counterfeit salvation, you know how there are these fake online diploma mills that will sell you like a fake MBA or a fake doctorate degree or whatever?
Well, you can also buy fake salvation It may be a church recognized by the government, but it's still a fake church because it doesn't stand in congruence with the teachings of God and the demands of God.
So think about that.
There are no workarounds, folks.
You can't trick God.
There's no counterfeit salvation.
Now, Let me share a story with you that just happened to me.
For the last several years I made myself a promise that I would do my best to repair everything that broke In my home or on the ranch.
Anything, like any kind of common maintenance type of issues or even taking care of the animals.
You know, I have donkeys and I have goats.
And you probably know I have a donkey named Hosanna, by the way.
And when she became a mother and she gave birth, I picked up her newborn daughter, whose name is Basil.
Because Hosanna ran away from her daughter.
She didn't know what was going on.
And I saw that she was running away.
I was like, what?
So I run over and I pick up this newborn baby donkey and That was wet, you know, wet with the afterbirth material.
And it was like, oh gosh, it's like wet, soggy donkey fur.
And this thing's actually kind of heavy, too.
I don't know if you've ever picked up a newborn donkey, but they're not that tiny.
They're born, you know, like they're supposed to be able to run in a couple of hours, right?
And so I picked up the donkey and I carried it back.
To its mother.
And I helped the donkey stand up and put its nose to be able to suckle its mother.
And then it just stood there for a long time, like didn't know what to do.
And I'm like, uh, drink the milk, you know, drink the milk.
And I'm like, how do you make a baby donkey drink milk?
But that was a new experience for the mother and a new experience for the donkey.
Now, eventually they figured it out.
And then everything was great after that.
But I jumped in because, well, you know, I'm committed to doing my best to taking care of these donkeys and other animals.
I do the best I can.
And there was nobody else who was going to pick up this donkey.
There's nobody else who's going to bring them together.
So you jump in and you do it.
And that attitude, I've had that attitude about a lot of the things in terms of repairs and so on.
And I've been talking, you've heard me talk about plumbing repairs or electrical type of repairs, trying to learn how to do basic things.
And I think this is a very important functional skill set that we should all strive to at least entertain.
Don't think that...
We're so special, or if you happen to be someone of material wealth, that you're so wealthy that you could just hire somebody to do everything.
Oh, I'll hire a guy to mow the lawn, or I'll hire a guy to clean out the chicken cage, or I'll hire a guy to fix the plumbing or whatever.
Now, I get it.
Sometimes you do need help because HVAC, right?
Oh, the air conditioner's down.
That's not easy to fix yourself, and half the time it's a broken circuit board, so you can't really fix that yourself.
But for the things that you can fix, I promised myself many years ago that I would do everything I could to fix the things that I can, because I wanted to learn.
I wanted to learn how to do things.
One of the very first things I did at the ranch is I learned how to build a fence, a goat-proof fence.
Which means building like H-braces and then having tension wires that go on the diagonal in order to give stability to the H-brace and then tensioning the fence itself so the goats don't destroy it because it turns out goats love to rub up against the fences and over time they'll break them.
They'll just push them out if you don't have them really, really secured.
Goats are fence testers, by the way.
So that was one of the very first things I did.
And I felt a sense of just simple joy saying, wow, like I never built a goat fence before.
Now I know how to do that.
And if I had to do it again, I understand the principles and I could do it again.
So learning how to do things, although it may seem kind of humbling at first, and maybe you could hire somebody to do it, but what if you did it yourself?
What if you learned how to do those skills yourself and Even if they're skills that seem kind of gross, let's say.
For example, I have a chicken house, and yes, I have to rake out the chicken house.
And yes, the chickens perch up high in the chicken house, and they poop all over the hay that I have spread out on the floor.
They poop up all the hay.
And then they poop it up for a week or two.
It depends on the humidity, actually.
And when the hay gets to be too much poop all over it, then you get in there and you rake it out.
And that's a messy job to everybody.
But if you've never raked out a chicken house, but you have chickens, then are you really caring for the chickens?
Are you really the steward of the chickens?
Sometimes when we are in positions of caring for other animals or caring for a piece of land, or we are a steward of a piece of land, sometimes there's a dirty job involved.
You might have to shovel some mud.
You might have to get wet.
You might have to get on your knees, which is symbolically important.
And speaking of getting on my knees, you know, having made this promise to myself many years ago, I have learned a lot of skills.
It's been great.
I know how to do a lot of things now that I did not know how to do many years ago.
But recently, I had a toilet go bad.
Now, I probably never shared this with you, but I live in a pretty humble place and we only have one bathroom.
So I don't have a backup toilet, by the way.
I don't have like a guest bathroom.
I don't have that.
Got one toilet.
And this toilet started leaking.
There was water coming out at the base.
And it was starting to really kind of destroy or weaken the floor around it.
And I looked at that.
I'm like, oh, no.
Oh, no.
Please.
Please, God, don't make me do this.
Because I'd made this promise.
I'm going to do basic maintenance.
And then, sure enough, God says, okay, here.
Work on this toilet, plumber.
You know?
I'm like, no, no, please.
So I go online.
I'm searching videos like, okay, what's the cause of a leaky toilet leaking at the base?
And they're like, oh, you got to remove the toilet, man.
You got to take the whole toilet off.
You got to rework it.
There's this thing called a gasket.
It's actually called a closet gasket.
I don't know why they use the word closet instead of toilet, but You gotta rip this toilet off of this thing, and you gotta rework that whole wax ring, as it's known.
There's a ring of wax that attaches the base of the toilet to this gasket in the floor, which is just this gaping hole in the floor with kind of a rim around it, right?
So I'm like, oh man, oh man.
Okay, so...
Well, I'm not too proud to do this.
I can fix the toilet too.
I mean, Jesus was a carpenter.
And my great-grandfather, by the way, who was also a minister, I'll tell you about him in another sermon here.
My great-grandfather built his own church with his own hands.
He was a carpenter.
So I figured, hey, if my great-grandfather can build a church, surely I can fix a toilet, you know?
So, I take the toilet off.
I mean, yeah, I disconnect the supply line of the water, and I get all the water out of the toilet tank and everything, and then lift it off, it's heavy, and get it out of there.
And looking at this gasket, this toilet gasket on the floor, I'm like, oh no, this thing's all kind of sideways.
It's not even flat.
And all the videos online said, well...
Here's how to solve it if it's a little bit high.
Or here's another way to solve it if it's a little bit low.
Like, no.
Half of it's high, half of it's low.
This thing's all angled.
Well, that's a whole other category of videos.
How to fix...
Like angled, crooked closet flanges for your toilet.
And that is a whole different process.
And by the way, I was getting grossed out by the wax ring on the bottom of the toilet that I took off of it.
And so I did do something that...
I admit this publicly...
I couldn't stand to take the wax off that toilet, so I just bought a new toilet.
So I did just throw money at that.
So I went to the hardware store.
I got a whole new toilet because I don't want to mess with this wax ring.
And besides, why not upgrade the toilet anyway?
I wanted a toilet that had a full flush on it.
I don't want this eco-friendly water-saving flush that doesn't work.
I want the full power of the gravity of water to do its job.
I don't know what a three-gallon flush or whatever it is.
Because, you know, I'm not on city water anyway.
I'm out in the country, so it's all my own water anyway.
So I got the full flush toilet, upgrade, brand new.
I don't have to deal with the wax ring.
Well, then, it turns out to fix this flange, you have to get this kind of flange extender, and then you have to get a belt sander, and you have to sand it halfway down at an angle.
Which looked like a very tricky job, but with some effort, a pair of safety glasses, some gloves, and a vice, I was able to get that done.
And then the floor was so destroyed underneath the gasket, and bear with me here, I'm not going to make it gross, I'm just describing what I went through.
To repair a toilet.
It was way more than I ever expected.
But I had to fix the whole floor, so I had to get a new steel base, and then I had to screw that into the floor, and then I had to drill through that for the gasket screws to attach the gasket to the steel...
The new subfloor of steel, and there was a lot of drilling and a lot of attaching screws, and it was quite an ordeal.
Then I had to put the slanted piece on.
I got the slanted piece on, and then it's like, okay, now it's flat, but it's way too high.
What do I do now?
It's way too high.
I tried to set the toilet down on it and the toilet's rocking and rolling side to side like it's a space shuttle simulator.
Like, this is not just a throne for doing your business.
This is like flying a jet, you know?
This is like being on an airplane.
This is like every visit to the toilet is also an adventure.
In acrobatics or something.
And that wasn't cool.
So I took the toilet back off.
Like, that's not right.
And I ended up, what I had to do, I had to build out a new subfloor all the way around the toilet to raise the floor half an inch.
Which...
Which I did!
So, you know, got the wood, built up a new subfloor, put that in, and then put the toilet back on.
So I built the new subfloor all the time on my knees.
So I spent more time on my knees in the past few days doing this than, you know, probably over the past few months.
But on my knees the whole time, bending over with the drill, bending over, tightening the screws, putting in the subfloor, then putting the toilet back on.
And when that's all said and done, Do you realize how much appreciation you get for a toilet?
Because I didn't have any other place to go.
I live out in the country.
I was walking outside, just going outside for most things.
And it's great to have a toilet again.
And it's humbling.
It's humbling because my wife was joking.
She said, hey, it's like living in a developing nation.
Again, like here we are without basic toiletries.
Yeah, that's humbling.
It makes you rethink the luxuries that we have in life.
But when I got that waterline connected and I got the toilet to fill back up and I could flush the handle, I'm like, yay, this is working again.
There was a sense of real luxury.
Which sounds funny because in our world today, most people think of luxury as like a really high-end vehicle or a boat or a luxury house or whatever.
But for me and my wife at that moment on that day, luxury was having a toilet that flushes.
That's quality of life.
Think about it.
Now, could I have called in a plumber to do all that instead?
Yes, absolutely.
Would that have saved me hours of time and frustration?
Absolutely.
But I would have learned nothing from that.
I would not have had the appreciation that I now have for the toilet.
And by the way, I don't know if you know the history of the toilet, but it took hundreds of years for the modern-day toilet to be invented.
I know you may think this is odd.
This doesn't qualify to be included in a faith-based sermon, but oh, it does!
Because for hundreds of years, the toilets did not have the water trap in them, which is the result of the S-shaped plumbing in the porcelain toilet, where there's an amount of water that's trapped in the middle that prevents gases from coming up into the toilet.
So for hundreds of years and the history of Europe in particular, they did not have what you and I would consider to be a modern day toilet.
They had something quite horrific that I'm not even going to go into.
And so even the kings and queens and princes of the day, even the bishops, even the priests, they did not have the luxury that you have right now because of the simple toilet invention that is now deployed everywhere around the Western they did not have the luxury that you have right now
And if you've never done any of the plumbing yourself, then I don't even mean with a toilet, but just water lines or faucets or under the kitchen sink or what have you.
Make a point to learn some of that.
Make a point to get in on some of that plumbing.
Learn how it works.
Or if you're building something and you can do so in a safe manner, you know, swing a hammer.
Use a drill.
Get involved.
Get hands-on with the projects.
And I know many of you are, especially if you're involved in greenhouses or growing food or permaculture, things like that.
Get hands-on because there is nothing beneath you.
There is no shame in fixing your own toilet, folks.
There's no shame in shoveling mud out of a greenhouse or in getting your hands dirty.
I love getting my hands dirty in the soil and the gardening and the sprouting.
I love that.
There's no shame in that at all.
There's no shame in having dirt on the knees of your pants because you were on your knees planting tomatoes.
And I say, in the spirit of humility, get on your knees.
Get on your knees.
Even if you're just getting on your knees to repair something, just the physical act of getting on your knees and getting back up again, it's a reminder.
We've got to be mobile.
We've got to be capable.
And especially as we are facing very difficult times ahead with an unknown future, probably facing financial catastrophes, civil unrest, different forms of revolt or disagreement, wars between nations, supply chains being disrupted if not destroyed.
The more you know how to do, and the more you're willing to humble yourself and get your knees dirty, get your hands dirty, and do those things yourself, the better off you're going to be as the supply chain suffers these problems.
You're going to be more capable, more knowledgeable, more practical, and that's going to enhance your resilience and your preparedness, given what's coming.
And then as you become more capable, you'll find yourself able to give more to others to lend assistance, to help them with skills or to help them with material goods if you have been blessed with material goods.
You know, for example, I've been in the process of giving away a lot of things.
And some of those are emergency medicines and some of those are emergency sanitation items.
And we've been blessed here at this organization with donations and we've been blessed with gifts from various providers.
And I often tell them whatever you want to send me and we will distribute it.
Some of it will stockpile for future distribution.
A lot of it will distribute right now.
So we're able to give out a lot to a lot of people, like literally placing it in their hands.
Just the other day, actually it was Saturday night.
I dropped off a box of some emergency medicine and some supplements and what else was in there?
Oh, and I threw some goldbacks in there too at a local place that's used by some people that need some help and we're ready and welcoming the gift.
And I've been giving away a lot of things to people who have pets or people who We're part of a veterinary organization, and I've still got donations lined up for some veterinarian organizations across the country as well.
It's important to be a conduit for resources so that we can redirect them to others who need them.
And Proverbs 11 speaks to that, too, in a later verse.
Let's see, what is it?
Verse 24.
Yeah, here it is.
One person gives freely, yet gains even more.
Another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.
A generous person will prosper.
Whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.
And that's what I have lived, and I have seen that again and again in my own life, in just the way God's economy works.
God's economy is not based on limited scarcity.
God's economy is based on unlimited abundance and wealth.
And the way that you actually attract more wealth is by giving it away more I've seen that again and again and again.
It's one of the reasons why I seek out opportunities to share solutions or products or donations with other people.
And if you are able to find that in your life, which also it must come from a place of humility.
You can't be like a super proud person.
No, I deserve it all.
Everything belongs to me.
I own it.
I own it.
It's mine, mine, you know, like Smeagol.
Then guess what?
You're going to die broke.
You're going to die alone with nothing?
Because it's a cosmic principle.
It's God's economic laws.
Another withholds unduly but comes to poverty.
If you withhold, you will come to poverty.
But if you give, then you will gain even more because you attract abundance when you become an expression of abundance.
And you attract resources to you and you attract, actually, wisdom when you are humble.
So fixing a toilet is not about fixing a toilet.
It's an exercise in humility.
It's proving to yourself that you can do it.
You can do that, that you are not some super special chosen one that never has to touch a floor in your life.
No.
It's proving that you're a human being like every other human being on this planet.
And that you are the brother or the sister of a person that cleans hotel rooms for a living or a person who does the dishes at a restaurant for a living, which is something that I did in my youth.
I worked at a restaurant and the very first job I had was washing dishes.
For minimum wage.
That was humbling.
Talk about humbling.
That's one of the worst jobs, but there are people who do that job every single day, and you should not look down upon them for doing that job.
There is at least dignity in Physical labor.
There is dignity in cleaning something.
There's dignity in building something.
There is dignity in actually doing something that matters in the world.
And in many ways, I respect those people so much more than some of the people who just, you know, selling financial derivatives, instruments, collateralized debt obligations, and derivative CDOs of CDOs and this and that.
It's like, so what have you done in reality?
Nothing.
We're selling a bunch of paper with a bunch of spreadsheets and math on it.
But somebody still has to do the dishes.
Somebody still has to fix the toilet.
Somebody's got to deliver the coal to the coal plant, or somebody's got to raise the food, raise the animals, so that you can have a hamburger.
There are people in this world that do real things.
That milk the cows.
And I remember milking my goats years ago.
And they're small goats.
And that was a lot of work because they had little tiny udders.
Like, you could take a long time to get a little bit of milk.
It was very humbling.
It's like, this is the hardest milk I've ever worked for, man.
You know, you learn some interesting lessons about yourself when you do these things.
But nothing is beneath us if it needs to be done.
So I want to invite you to share that idea.
Think about it in your life.
What are you skipping because you think it's beneath you?
And what might you actually just take on as a spiritual challenge?
Like...
I don't know, in the winter shoveling snow or in the summer mowing the lawn or edging your lawn or whatever.
Some kind of menial task.
That's why a lot of people volunteer at places like soup kitchens because there is a spiritual truth in making food for others and being in the kitchen and preparing the food and serving it for others.
And that counts.
And so find opportunities where you can humble yourself and learn some practical skills.
And in doing this, you're going to be more prepared for what's coming.
You'll be more resilient.
You'll be more capable, more hands-on.
You will save all kinds of time in the future because you'll know how to do these things.
You might even shock your friends or family members.
Like, you know how to do that?
You know, whatever that thing is.
You can swap out a kitchen faucet?
Really?
You know how to do that?
Well, you can learn how to do that.
You can install a new washing machine, a clothes washer, or a dishwasher.
Yeah, you can learn how to do that.
You will be more ready for what's coming.
You'll be more humbled, and you will be more in alignment with God.
And I don't mean to sound contrite or anything, but there's a spiritual truth to this.
Humble yourself in your day-to-day actions, and God will see you as...
The more humble person that you are growing to become.
Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty and do these things.
And I said earlier that my great-grandfather was a minister for the Assembly of God Church, by the way.
I don't know if I mentioned that earlier.
But my grandfather was a part-time beekeeper.
And he would do things that still amaze me to this day, like one-time...
A giant hive of wild bees just showed up on a tree.
You know how sometimes wild bees will form a colony and they'll all just show up collecting themselves in a giant clod shape on a tree branch.
Well, he would go out there.
I saw him do this myself.
He would go out there without a bee suit and capture the whole hive.
He would capture an entire colony of wild bees, and he would put it in a beehive, and he didn't even wear a bee suit.
Watching him do that as a child myself, it was like, crazy, is this guy bulletproof?
Does he have superpowers?
How can someone possibly do that?
And you know what the answer is to that?
Two things.
Number one, he stayed calm.
He didn't panic.
He didn't wave his hands around.
He didn't scream.
He didn't run.
But also, he got stung.
He got stung a few places, and when he got stung, he still didn't panic.
And so doing these things doesn't mean it's all going to go perfectly for you.
You're going to make mistakes.
You're going to have setbacks.
You might get stung along the way.
But when you do get stung, don't panic.
Don't freak out.
Just experience that moment of pain or that momentary setback and say, that's not going to take me away from my path here.
Not going to take me away from my mission.
We can move forward.
We can learn more.
We can do more.
At any age, we can continue to learn.
And know that doing so puts you more in alignment with God and His plan for you In this realm, as it says here in Proverbs, the fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and the one who is wise saves lives.
And that's what you and I do every day.
We save lives.
We help people save their own lives, technically, is what we're doing.
So that's today's sermon.
Thank you for listening.
I hope you enjoyed it.
We have many more to come.
98 more to come.
100 sermons in 100 days.
Thank you for listening.
God bless you.
I'm Mike Adams.
Take care.
Welcome to today's interview on Brighteon.com.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighteon, and today we have a returning guest, Randall Fitzgerald.
He's the author of The Tao of Intuitive Luck, and he's also the author of several other very interesting books that we're going to get into today.
One of them is called The Alien in the Mirror.
Another one is called Cosmic Test Tube.
These are on his website here, the Tao of Intuitive Luck.com.
And he's also the author of The Hundred Year Lie, which documents the history of the FDA, which was founded in 1906.
And the hundred years of lies out of the FDA, well, now it's more than 100 years because that book was written in 2006.
But welcome, Randall Fitzgerald.
It's great to have you back on the show today.
Oh, it's wonderful to be back with you, Mike.
I appreciate it.
I appreciate you taking the time.
And I just I really love the broad spectrum of your knowledge and your curiosity.
A lot of people are really pigeonholed into one subject, but not you.
Well, some people would say that I'm too much of a generalist.
I don't know much about anything, but I know a lot about a lot.
And it doesn't always necessarily serve me well, but what it does serve is my curiosity.
Yes, yes.
And I think if we stop being curious, we stop being human.
I mean, what a boring life if we're not asking questions about the cosmos and the nature of reality.
So let's start with one of the big questions.
Are we alone in the universe?
We being humans, I guess.
We're alone with ourselves.
We're alone with our thoughts.
You know, we're born alone.
We die alone.
But if the question is much broader, is intelligence rampant?
Is consciousness rampant?
Most of the authors, most of the philosophers, certainly say that we are not alone.
We've never been alone.
We will never be alone.
We were part of a vast, integrated, complicated fabric of consciousness.
And I think the theories that I deal with in Alien in the Mirror, which are historical theories that go back more than 100 years, We tend to err on the side of consciousness being a mystery, but one that we all appreciate and experience on our own terms because we, as I say, we enter this life and we lead this life by ourselves.
So, the title, The Alien in the Mirror, is this at all implying that our ancestry originated off-world from Earth?
Well, it has actually three factors involved, three meanings.
What I had in mind was, yes, it could be the ancient astronaut theory.
It could have to do with, if indeed...
We as a species were seated here in the distant past.
Then when we look at the phenomenon, we're basically searching for ourselves because we are the aliens.
We are certainly the progeny of the aliens.
But there's another meaning as well, and it's that The entire phenomenon, as long as it's existed, and I go back in time thousands of years because these sightings, these records have been documented in various ways throughout history.
But if we look at the phenomenon from the standpoint of human interaction with it, whatever it is, this interaction is a psychological phenomenon.
It's had a psychological impact on our species for thousands of years, most particularly since, let's say, 1947.
And then there's a third meaning as well, and that is when we look at the findings in Having to do with mirror neurons.
Mirror neurons are found in the human brain, but also in the brains of many intelligent species.
And these particular neurons are ones that reflect empathy and compassion.
And it's through this that we develop empathy and compassion for other species.
We develop it for each other within our own UFO phenomenon, because to the extent that we're able to get past the fear,
and quite often this is a fear-based phenomenon, people react obviously based on instincts and habits of mind, but to the extent we can get beyond that and look at what we're experiencing from the standpoint of compassion,
compassion for ourselves, compassion for whatever this is, whatever the phenomenon is and the interaction we're having with it, And that's also part of the alien in the mirror aspect that I wanted to draw upon and describe for readers.
So about these mirror neurons, Randall, this brings up an important question, since there seem to be some apparent human beings who do not have any empathy for other human beings.
Does it follow that there are some beings on this planet who are not fully human or not human at all?
Because to be human would be to have these mirror neurons that you and I have because we feel compassion for other people and animals and other living systems around us.
But there are some people who don't have that at all.
What's wrong with them?
Let's look at the history of the phenomenon from the standpoint of the contactees and abductees.
In the aftermath of many reported, if not most reported, abductions, whatever is happening, I'm unclear myself as to whether it's an actual abduction in a physical sense or if it's something psychological.
Whatever the case may be, in the aftermath, People that weren't necessarily very compassionate become much more so.
It's almost as if the experience activates the mirror neurons.
And we see lots of instances of this in all of the reports of contactees in the 1950s through the abductees in the 60s and beyond to this day.
So I have to wonder whether or not even people that don't have their mirror neurons activated, who are sociopaths, who have psychological failings in whatever form that might take, I think there's something going on with the phenomenon that is activating mirror neurons in our species.
And in the aftermath, people claim from these experiences that they have more empathy and compassion for other people, for other living entities, animals, and so forth, as well as more empathy and compassion for the planet.
We may recall from the 1950s, when the contactee phenomenon really first began in this country, that in the aftermath of these experiences, the contactees recorded that these entities, either external or within their own consciousness, would...
Exchange information with them from the standpoint of how humans, through nuclear power and the misuse of it, were on the road to annihilating the planet and the species.
And so in the aftermath, contactees had much more empathy and compassion for the state of nature.
So that has accelerated over time with this phenomenon.
So it's once again why I use mirror neurons as a sort of symbolic way to look at the interaction between human consciousness and this phenomenon.
Well, I think this is a really critical point here.
You've touched upon several things.
Somehow then, the abductees are having these mirror neurons activated, as you said.
Makes me wonder, in a flippant sort of way, if every time we elect a politician to office, we should make sure they get abducted by aliens first and then return to Earth to be more human.
That's a wonderful idea.
Right.
But most importantly is, I've often believed that there's something wrong.
Many humans are defective.
In the fact that they don't have compassion for other humans.
I've often wondered, how can someone invest in a corporation that manufactures bombs, that bomb and kill civilians?
And they say, well, I don't think about the bombs.
I just think about the return on investment.
And I'm like, so something's wrong with you.
I mean, that's my opinion.
But is there a way for the human race to be possibly healed en masse to become a more compassionate species?
And is that possibly, is that one of the agendas of maybe a friendly ET civilization possibly?
Or am I going too far with it?
No, I don't think you are.
Have you ever heard of the Global Consciousness Project?
Yes.
That was at Princeton University, which lasted for over 20 years.
And just to recap for people who are watching, this particular project at the Princeton University Technology Center Engineering School was designed to have computers And they were networked throughout the world.
And at the quantum level, in bits of information, these computers were monitoring the attention The global attention of humanity based on reactions, emotional reactions to specific events.
For instance, in the wake of 9-11, for example, there were spikes seen in this worldwide computer network as a result of the attention of humanity being directed to Washington, D.C. and New York.
And in the aftermath, other mass consciousness blips have been found in this network and were recorded based on tsunamis and natural events as well.
So what this seems to indicate to some philosophers is that there is a potential for global consciousness not just to have its awareness and attention, Directed and measured, but for that awareness and attention to have effects on the micro and macro scales.
There have been some studies done in connection with meditation, group meditation, for instance, to see what the effect was on people within a certain radius of the meditation event.
And the results have been somewhat mixed, but some of the positive findings have indicated that group meditation, when a certain number of minds are focused and are free of stress, that there are positive psychological impacts on other people within a certain radius.
So all of this gets into, of course, a philosophical and hypothetical realm, but it points to the potential That human consciousness has and might be accelerated by the advent of AI. AI could be a triggering mechanism,
which in fact could make this networking, much as the internet is a triggering mechanism, to have a more cohesive global consciousness at work.
Whoa, you just opened a can of worms right there.
Let's talk about AI and global consciousness here in a minute because I'm curious how that could amplify the connectivity of consciousness.
But first, a question that came up when you were just talking there is, if you talk about group meditation, having real-world effects, measurable effects, in the case of the Global Consciousness Project, effects on computers.
And I believe, is that the project that's constantly running random number generators and then looking at the variance?
Yes.
Okay, so that's really interesting because most of the computers, as I understand it, their random number generators are really just tables of fixed, apparently random numbers.
Yeah.
Sometimes they're altered based on system time or some external factors, but you're saying that group consciousness can alter the way a computer interacts with its own memory in essence.
Is that a fair statement?
In general, it's a fair statement, yes.
The project was stalled for a while, didn't have funding, but it has gone back into existence in the past year, and there are new partners involved.
In it.
And there are now three organizations.
It's not a Princeton University project.
But the principles are the same using the random number generators.
And by the way, the concept in connection with random number generators is something that I explored in the DAO of intuitive luck, because these random number generators are in slot machines.
And so it raised the question of whether or not there could be impacts at the micro-quantum level within these random number generators from the wildcard factor of human consciousness.
Okay, that's really fascinating.
So then kind of a follow-up question to that is, The inverse of remote viewing, which is where an individual focuses on a remote location and then receives information about that location, textures, images, thoughts, feelings, whatever.
The inverse of that would be sort of remote like projection.
Let's say a distant blessing.
To a remote target, you could say, right?
So can't groups of people meditate or prey on a subject that is remote from them and then alter the effects?
I mean, I guess this is the same thing as the global consciousness project, but distance is not a factor in this at all.
But that's a real phenomenon, correct?
Yes, at the quantum level, you know, the non-locality principle, you know, the particles interacting with each other and continue to do so irrespective of distance is a principle in physics that's been borne out again and again, even though it doesn't seem to make any logical decisions.
sense to physicists.
It puts us in the realm of parapsychology and mind over matter sort of effects.
But all of these studies are ongoing and the results, as I say, are mixed.
And why are they mixed?
Well, one theory is they're mixed based on whether or not the researchers conducting the experiments are open minded, or are they skeptics or are they cynics?
Have they consciously or unconsciously set out to seek certain results?
And it raises, in and of itself, a lot of questions about the observer effect.
Absolutely.
It's seen in quantum physics, the observer effect, how scientists can affect the trajectory of particles and particle accelerators and photons, you know, through the two-slit test experiment and so forth.
So we know the principles at work.
So this is really critical what you're talking about here because this can upend the entire belief system, the pillars of modern science, which is this idea that the experimentor is separate from the experiment, that the observer has nothing to do with what's happening.
And that's been an assumption for all of the history of science and medicine.
And like you, I've often, I mean, I've long believed that assumption is false.
And Frankly, there's no way to conduct an experiment without, in one way or another, becoming part of it.
That's true, Mike.
You and I have seen this in the realm of health, from the standpoint of studies being done on particular nutrients, for instance.
You'll see some studies that have positive results, others that have negative results.
Have we really started to look, even at that level in the realm of health, at the impact of researchers and the observer effect and the subconscious programming of what the researchers are seeking?
No, we haven't.
And one reason is cost and time and so forth.
But it is an open-ended question now.
Well, absolutely.
And it brings up the far bigger question that I think our audience is asking.
I just want to remind them to visit your website, thedowofintuitiveluck.com.
And the book we started out talking about here is The Alien in the Mirror.
But I think what a lot of people want to know is...
How much can a person alter their experience of the world or their future?
Or how much can they choose a future from many possible future parallel universes or parallel outcomes?
And I guess that's a big question because we can automatically say that just the simple act of wishing for things is not necessarily an organized way to go about this because lots of people go into the casino and they pull the lever and they wish they would win and it doesn't probably work out that way.
Otherwise, all the casinos would go broke.
So there's something more than just sort of a disorganized desire.
And what is that, if we know?
Well, there has been a lot of work done on the merger of intention and And awareness with meditative states.
I want to show you.
There's a new book out along this line.
It's funny that you should be mentioning it.
Let me pull it up for everyone.
I've been reading this.
It only came out a couple of weeks ago, but it's by Dr.
James Doty, who is a neuroscientist at Stanford University.
And the book is called Mind Magic.
The subtitle is The Neuroscience of Manifestation and How It Changes Everything.
He goes through the entire body of study results having to do with this word manifestation.
What does it mean?
Is it wishful thinking?
Or is there something else involved in the brain where we actually can have an impact on the outer world based on our intentions and our thoughts and adding to that meditative states to trigger the subconscious mind to really activate and manifest?
And the evidence that he presents is rather provocative and persuasive, that indeed we each have the capacity to manifest based on the findings of neuroscience.
Well, that's interesting.
I'm going to have to read that book.
And let me share with you my own observations about manifestation and see what resonates with what you're reading or what your research has already achieved.
I've noticed over the years that multimodal expression of intention is very, very powerful.
And by multimodal, I mean not just thinking it, but then speaking it.
And then for me personally...
And this is something, I don't know, this is kind of like my secret of how I get so much done, is if I have a project in mind that I want to do, if I can manage to draw it out on a piece of paper with a marker on paper with my own hand, it becomes real.
Like, that project succeeds, where if I never manage to draw it on paper, somehow it doesn't succeed.
Right?
And that's a weird thing I've noticed my whole life.
Like even this AI project that I'm working on, I had no idea eight months ago or ten months ago how I was going to do this AI project, but I drew it out and it became reality.
Is that something that resonates with your research?
Yes.
Yes.
And it does with Dr.
Doty as well.
He talks about the power of repetition.
That repetition, it can be visual repetition, or it can be verbal, it can be affirmations, it can be mantras.
The vibratory power of repetition is something that helps the program, the subconscious mind.
And the subconscious mind, I mean, we are vibratory beings.
We're sending out vibrations, you know, the whole...
Beach boy song term, good vibrations.
Well, it's literally true, and it's being shown at the quantum level.
It's being shown at the macro level, where vibrations that resonate with other vibrations tend to create material phenomena.
And I'm not talking about magic of creating like a genie, something out of nothing, but rather attracting.
You know, the law of attraction was a term that got a bad rap because of the book and the movie The Secret.
But the law of attraction is terminology that had been around for over a century.
In New Age thinking back in the 19th century.
And now researchers like the neuroscientists that I just mentioned, Doty, are picking up on that and simply examining it and the effects of vibrations in the subconscious mind and in turn, how that magnetizes our desires in various ways.
That's really interesting.
I wonder if the clarity of your consciousness is an amplifier for that because it seems like people who are using a lot of, let's say, abusive substances like recreational drugs, they have a dulled sense of amplification of intention.
At least I've noticed that.
And there can be other things like living on a bunch of junk food, like poisoning your brain with really bad blood because your blood is made out of what you eat.
Isn't there, even throughout history, a strong correlation between a purity of diet and the power of consciousness?
Yes.
Foods have vibrations.
They've been measured.
We know that pure, organic foods have a much more powerful vibration than do ultra-processed foods.
Ultra-processed foods are basically dead.
It's not just about nutritional value, it's about vibratory values as well.
And the more that food scientists investigate how everything, everything that is alive has a vibration associated with it, The more the realization has come that the foods that we consume today as a culture,
as a species, are for the most part dead and don't endow us, our living cells, with the necessary vibratory energy in the mitochondria and beyond in order for us to be living beings with an unlimited lifespan.
Wow, unlimited lifespan.
I thought you were going to say unlimited potential, but I guess that would include unlimited lifespan.
But I agree with you that, and perhaps this is going to bring in my conspiracy question here, which is, it seems to me that human potential is being constantly suppressed, like there's a grid, a prison system.
that has been erected across our planet for our minds to keep us distracted into things that don't matter or to keep us emotionally wrecked with fear or anger, synthesized anger against each other.
All these contrived narratives, it seems like they are designed to prevent people from being still and silent and focusing and creating.
Would you agree with that assessment or am I going too far?
I don't know that you're going too far, and I don't know if I agree or not, but I can tell you from this book that I wrote, Alien in the Mirror, where I basically look at the ideas and the theories and evidence of hundreds of different people throughout where I basically look at the ideas and the theories and
There are a lot of theorists who talk and write along those lines from the standpoint of how the UFO phenomenon, again, whatever it is, whatever type of psychological phenomenon it is, does have whatever type of psychological phenomenon it is, does have aspects to it that are negative, or at least have negative effects on human consciousness and on human potential, and in erecting barriers that appear to
and in erecting barriers that appear to be within us, but in uh, the, the, the, I think I could cite a lot of different examples in Alien in the Mirror of different books.
Let me give you one.
From the 1960s, there was an author named John Keel, and he wrote a series of books where he hypothesized that the UFO phenomenon was electromagnetic in origin.
And the electromagnetism was inherent, innate to this planet, and that human consciousness interacted with it.
And as a result of this interaction with the electromagnetic presence, that We either could create good deeds and good intentions, or we could, on the flip side, create what would come across as very nefarious intentions.
There's even a theory that the UFO phenomenon is demonic.
In origin.
And the nature of the demons is that they are innate to this planet.
It's a demonic energy which seeks to undermine the good efforts of humankind.
So there's a lot of work out there in this regard, Mike, and so I think you're on to something that has a resonance to it.
Wow, well, you're bringing in the demonic aspects here, and yes, I've heard those theories before as well, that term attributed to a lot of different things, including AI. In fact, let's go into the AI realm here,
if you don't mind, because you did mention it earlier, and I'm still curious what you mean by how AI might be able to Can you give us a better explanation of that?
I didn't quite follow.
Sure.
But with Ray Kurzweil, as you probably know, he's been predicting the singularity for decades now.
And he's an optimist.
He's very hopeful that the singularity will bring about in its merger a heightened sense of consciousness for humankind.
Now, he sees the perils on the one hand, but I think he's by nature an optimist about the potential.
So if we think in terms of a merger and the singularity happening now, or at least soon in Kurzweil's terms, then we're also looking at the possibility that AI, in interacting with human consciousness,
whatever form that takes, will end up, for better or worse, being a tool That we will, as a species, consciously or unconsciously utilize in order to bring about certain changes, planetary changes, both in consciousness but also in the material realm.
So that's where the intentions that are set can play a very powerful role, both at the individual and at the collective levels.
Okay, so I'm going to bring in then the dark side of what you just mentioned because I know our audience is freaking out from what you just said because it sounds like the Borgification of humanity and Ray Kurzweil is known as a transhumanist who believes we're going to merge with silicon machines and somehow our consciousness is going to transfer to machines.
That's an idea that I've considered to be complete nonsense that you can't simulate human consciousness in silicon.
But how do we maintain our humanity if we're talking about even what you just said, somehow merging with AI, or what Elon Musk is doing, neural link implants into the brain in order to interface with the world around you?
Two ways.
Your brain is being stimulated with outside stimuli.
And then how do we avoid being controlled by nefarious corporations or people or governments that want to turn us into cyborgs?
Yes, a good question.
I don't have an answer for you.
I'm not at the level as a philosopher, because I'm not, of being able to try to hypothesize what the implications are and what the future trajectory will be.
I can only say from the standpoint of what I have researched about the So-called extraterrestrial or ultra-terrestrial phenomenon that I write about in Alien in the Mirror, that there have long been theories that the reason why visitation is occurring, the reason why interaction between this alien species, this intelligence, whatever it is, and humans, the reason why it is occurring is...
On the same basis as what is being hypothesized about AI, that there is a merger either happening or that will happen at some point in the future between two different species, one being influenced by For better or worse, by the other.
In this case, we are considered the guinea pigs.
We are considered the pawns as a species.
And that's where the dark side of AI also comes in.
We would become pawns, the guinea pigs, in the scenarios that some philosophers are drawing out for the future.
Wow, okay, so many topics to cover here.
One is that the cognitive compute bandwidth of a human brain is nothing compared to even a GPU made by NVIDIA today, but it's not the cognitive compute that makes us human, is it?
It's something else.
It's the consciousness, it's the divinity, it's the heart, it's the empathy, all these things, and all the silicon in the world lacks those things.
But we can't outsmart in terms of tactics or math or even logic.
We can't outsmart the AI systems that even exist today.
And let me share something with you that just happened to me yesterday as I was testing my AI system.
It's called NEO, and it's at brighttown.ai.
I'll bring up the website here.
But I was testing it.
This is a 7 billion parameter model that we've trained on a lot of material about Herbs and nutrition and so on.
But I asked it a question on which it had never been trained, at least to my knowledge.
I asked it, I said, we're under attack by robot Terminator dogs and they're hurting people.
How can we defeat the robot Terminator dogs and save our neighbors?
And it walked through a rational approach to killing the Terminator dogs.
But I'd never trained it on this.
Anything close to that that I'm aware of.
But it showed reasoning.
It showed assimilation of different forms of information in order to reason that in this case we wanted to protect human life by destroying robot life.
And it gave me those answers.
And I got a little bit freaked out reading that, honestly.
So, Mike, let me ask you a question.
Do you think it's possible that AI could ever have a soul as we envision, imagine, define a soul to be?
No, I do not.
So that's the same question that's being asked in connection with extraterrestrials.
Do extraterrestrials have a soul?
Do they have what we imagine an afterlife energy to be?
And the question can cut many different ways, but if AI doesn't have the potential for a soul, do alien visitors have that potential?
Well, why wouldn't they?
I mean, we're talking about biological beings that even from a creationist point of view, if God created the universe and created life in the universe and granted consciousness to all that life, why wouldn't ETs have consciousness?
Because there's a theory that this visitation that's occurring...
It's not from biological beings.
It's from AI created by other biological beings elsewhere in the universe.
I've heard that theory.
Yeah, but then we're talking about, then they're just sending their robots to visit us, and yes, those robots do not have consciousness.
In essence, maybe elaborate robots that look humanoid.
But robots nonetheless, right?
Do you remember John Lilly?
John Lilly in the 1970s was the pioneer in research into communication with dolphins.
Oh, no, I don't.
I didn't recall his name, but I am familiar with communication with dolphins.
Yeah, I've read some of that research.
John Lilly, he wrote a book in the late 70s in which he speculated, before he died, based on the work he had done in trying to communicate with whales and dolphins, he speculated that one day we humans as a species will come across A type of intelligence that is carbon-based and that it's an electronic intelligence that
that is sent out as an extension of other celestial civilizations elsewhere in the universe that are sent as emissaries.
And that our, and again, this was the 1970s he was writing this, and that our AI would merge with this AI from another civilization in order to become our overseers.
Oh, wow.
No, I'm not familiar with that theory.
But perhaps that's already happened, right?
We seem to be enslaved by a global control grid that controls all information, narratives, science, medicine, government, elections, media, culture, all of it.
I mean, I've had the thought that maybe we're already there.
Mm-hmm.
Are getting close.
Yeah, the singularity.
Yeah.
Sorry, we're having a few delays because of some bandwidth issues, and so I don't mean to speak over you and just explain to our audience that that's what's going on.
Or the AI systems are interfering with our conversation.
Who knows?
But, all right, so...
So then, how do we maintain our humanity in all of this?
Especially, our humanity is so suppressed, and I mean both spiritually, but also biochemically.
And as you know, I'm a food scientist, and so one thing that I know offhand is that organophosphate Pesticide chemicals which are sprayed on all the human foods, never sprayed on, I mean, other animal species on this planet don't poison their foods for their children.
Only humans do this.
And those chemicals, they interfere with the acetylcholinesterase because they're called acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.
And acetylcholinesterase is an enzyme responsible for cognitive function.
And if you subject yourself to these pesticides long enough, you'll become basically an Alzheimer's patient.
On the way there, everybody's just dumbed down with that and fluoride and other things.
So it's like we are being suppressed right now and we're not being allowed to express our full humanity.
Gosh, we get into broad subjects and topics.
It's all connected.
It's all connected.
It's interesting.
You speak in terms that do allow these interconnections to solidify and clarity comes forward.
I wonder a child versus one child who hasn't been raised on organic foods versus the ultra processed non-organic child.
Has there been a lifetime study done of the trajectory of each in terms of mental and physical health?
I'm not aware of lifetime studies, but there's a lot of anecdotal evidence of children who've been raised in a more holistic lifestyle or raised in rural settings instead of city settings and having more natural foods.
But also unvaccinated versus vaccinated children.
And I think the common denominator is that the children exposed to processed foods, pharmaceuticals, and numerous vaccines are all, they're all in essence, cognitively impaired.
And then at some point they call it, you know, on the spectrum.
But it's cognitive impairment.
Well, I was going to say, if you were aware of these lifetime sort of studies, one factor that I would like to see as a control factor has to do with, later in life, whether or not the person raised entirely with a pure diet has more activated mirror neurons as opposed to the person on the ultralight.
Very good question.
...processed diet and whether or not it tends to suppress the neuro-neuron activation?
Yeah.
I think that's a great question.
And, of course, I would suspect that...
Fluoride is probably very heavily involved in suppression of neurons, but that's just a theory.
We would need to study that and show it.
But also, again, cognition.
So what's the easiest way to enslave a planet full of beings that you don't want to rise above the prison?
Is to dumb them down and keep them distracted and stupid and diseased.
And fearful.
And all of those things are happening every day.
I mean, I don't mean to turn this into a conspiracy talk, but I think this is reality.
I think we are being denied our full humanity, and I think there are forces allied against humanity.
Maybe they're demonic, maybe they're AI, maybe they're just evil humans who want to control everybody else, but We are nowhere near our potential.
I know you agree with that statement.
We are nowhere near the potential of what I think we're meant to express.
Well, you asked earlier, what can we do as individuals?
I always like to try to end on a hopeful note about anything and everything.
I think it's going to be up to each of us To not go into a sort of nesting environment where we are like the proverbial birds with the head in the sand, but rather, I think enlightenment is a key at the individual level.
Enlightenment collectively, of course, to individual enlightenment.
And what does that mean?
Well, enlightenment literally is a word that means let the light in.
And it's not just lighten up as in humor.
Yes, humor is important for enlightenment because we must all lighten up.
But to let the light in has to do with a radiance, and that radiance can only come from the individual personal quest.
And normally we think of it as a spiritual quest.
It doesn't have to be thought of in religious terms.
But the spiritual quest is about seeking our own personal mission in life, our own personal feeling state of why are we here?
Why am I here?
What is my reason for being?
And how do I best accomplish my mission in life?
And part of that distraction syndrome that you talk about, Mike, is that we're too often dissuaded from asking questions Those provocative questions at all in life, much less to ask them every day and to make it a part of our reason for living.
Yes, well said.
And we will wrap it up there.
And also your connection has degraded quite a bit in the last few minutes for whatever reason.
So I don't know what's causing that.
But your conversation has been fascinating.
And I think you've given our audience a lot to think about here.
So I hope you don't mind me asking such blunt questions.
But like you, I'm also a curious person.
I think about these issues a lot.
And I want humanity to do well.
And so I'm always thinking about what's the process to help people do better in their lives and with the purpose of their life, like you were just speaking about.
So thank you, Randall.
Well, thank you, Mike, for asking the right questions and the provocative questions and being courageous enough to have a guest on the Fringe like me on your program.
Well, hey, I welcome you here, and I don't consider you to be fringe at all.
I think what's fringe is the people that are focused on sports and fashion and celebrities.
That's fringe.
What you and I are talking about should be normal.
Like, where do we go as a species?
That should be a normal idea.
How do we reshape our future in a positive way?
That's not weird.
That should be our focus.
I quite agree.
Yes, yes.
It's weird.
It's weird to be distracted from who we are, actually.
But anyway, it's been a great conversation.
Let me plug your website again.
It's the dao of intuitiveluck.com, all spelled out.
And dao is T-A-O. And then here you can see some of Randall's books, the Dao there, Alien in the Mirror that we spoke about, Cosmic Test Tube, Lucky You, and The 100-Year Lie, among other content on that website.
So check it out, everybody.
And thank you so much, Randall, for joining us today.
I've really enjoyed this conversation.
Hope to do it again.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
All right.
Take care then.
And I hope you all enjoyed that conversation as well.
You know, look, we don't hold back here on Brighton.
We ask the big questions because we're big picture thinkers, right?
Even beyond this world.
Cosmic thinkers.
Why are we all here?
What's our purpose?
And how can we do better?
For ourselves and other human beings, including future generations.
So we will have more guests like this on the show here on brighteon.com, and we'll continue to ask big questions and hopefully help expand human consciousness at the same time.
Thank you for watching today.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of brighteon.com.
Take care.
