Reincarnation

(If you are new to this blog please go to my first entry.)

This blog is all about reincarnation but it is not anything most of you will recognize as typical of any discussion you have read or heard in the past.  It is about the process of reincarnation. Eastern religions and New Age beliefs go to great detail on the mysticism surrounding the topic and  there has been and still is  some research being conducted that is focused on the phenomena associated with the subject. Because of the religious implications, there exists a reluctance on the part of many people to dig into it too deeply.

Couple that with the tendency  for those that do try and research the  phenomena to focus on related phenomena instead of studying the process and it becomes obvious why we have  made very little progress understanding whether it exists or doesn't exist in spite of the fact we have been discussing it for centuries.

All that we are as species is due to  either our being created or having evolved to our current form. It is my belief, if God exists, evolution is Gods tool and our creation/evolution are one in the same. That belief is gaining strength in many religions as  religion for far to long  has seen science as its enemy and that is finally starting to change. People of faith are not ignorant and people of science are not placed here by Satan.

Personally I see evolution as a greater miracle than simple creation. In order to make that  statement I need to define miracle. In common usage, miracle is just another way of saying good luck. The philosophical definition is always religious in nature. The argument is does God  use the laws of nature to accomplish a miracle or can God break the rules of nature to achieve the desired effect? Those who believe God can do anything God wants have no idea how the miracle happened, nor do they want to. They place it all in God's hands. If everyone agrees there is no debate but the lack of debate results in a lack of knowledge and  that contradicts the  message the miracle of evolution is trying to tell us.  It equates to everyone ignoring the star of Bethlehem as just another light in the night sky.  There is an astronomical event that concurs with the story of the birth of Christ.  That event is seen as a miracle by those of the Christian faith. It  remains a miracle to this day. Evolution is  no different. Science tells us that God plays by Gods rules if God exists. Science will one day prove whether God exists or doesn't exist. Either outcome will be a miracle as mankind will forever be changed by the knowledge.  

If reincarnation happens it does involve an entity in energy form and that is a form that will exist for eternity  provided it  is not part of a cataclysmic event. Every clear night you look up at star light that has traveled for millions of years before becoming visible to the human eye. It is all the proof any of us need to know that existence in energy form is eternal.

My hypothesis is, if reincarnation happens, it is part of an evolutionary process that benefits our species. I further believe that any species who evolves to the same level we have will also be capable of reincarnation. I believe we are the only species on this planet that has the ability and the research I propose will prove that. The primary reason for the ability to reincarnate is to facilitate rapidly changing abilities and knowledge that physical DNA cannot keep pace with.We have evolved to a point where DNA alone can't get the job done.

Keep in mind the process exists to benefit the species  and currently does not offer any conscious benefit to the person you currently are that is easily identifiable. You are  an integration between an entity newly created or reincarnated and a physical human body which makes you unique.  There are cases of recall that appear to be valid but they usually involve trauma in our current or past lives. Our brain and the process of reincarnation are set up to separate long term memory from short term memory and that, I believe, is not a coincidence. We may eventually evolve to the point where we will be able to integrate our past lives with our current one. This blog may be part of that process,

I will go into detail regarding all the phenomena that  I believe are related to the process of reincarnation. I have become convinced, as I have studied these phenomena, they answer a lot of questions regarding who, what and why we are. All the topics I have addressed are open for discussion.

There are two parts to this discussion.The first part is the causes associated with the process evolving and the impact our new found knowledge will have on them, The second part goes into related phenomena that should have been looked upon as a whole a long time go. There would have been a lot more research conducted  on reincarnation had we done so. Some topics address both. I urge readers to keep the forest in mind and not to get hung up on a tree. It is the forest that makes the case for researching the process of reincarnation. We have been stuck on the trees for far to long.

I left one phenomena out of the discussion which readers can post to this post if they have any information that  could corroborate  my observation. I go into savant abilities under autism but there are cases where no trauma is apparent  that I see no other explanation for other than the person is calling on abilities and knowledge they gained in a past life.  A perfect example of that was on the television show "America's Got Talent" last season.  A 9 year old girl stepped up to the microphone and sang with a voice that normally takes years and years of training to create. If you haven't heard her, her name is Jackie Evancho. Certainly anyone can be born with the ability to do what she does but how does one her age get the years of training and knowledge to sing as she does? She appears to be a normal little girl and the only explanation I have for her is she sang in a previous life. One way to research that would to be compare her voice pattern to previous singers who have passed. It would be interesting research.  I place little or no value in hypnotic regression. Too easy to lead the patient.

It is my contention that anyone who has dedicated their lives to an activity will have the ability to recall that activity in their next life at least subconsciously. I hope that Stephen Hawking experiences recall in his next life. Odds are he will get  a better body next time and to be able to continue his work would be phenomenal.

Time to get down to brass tacks. I have written a page for each topic I present. I provide a link to that page below and on every  associated topic that is posted to the blog. When new information becomes available via my ongoing research or inputs from the blog readers I will update the page associated with the topic. The pages will ultimately become a book should the debate go on long enough to warrant publishing one.

If you are impatient and want to read about the tool I propose for researching the process of reincarnation click on "The Right Tool".   If you want more information on why I started this blog read the following posts, "Getting Started" and "And It Came To Pass"

The sections/posts to this blog are as follows:


... RELIGION  ...

I welcome your input. Please provide references with links if you are quoting someone else' s work.


I have added two pages which require no discussion. The first is the  the entity that presents my hypothesis representing our spiritual or energy self. Either you believe we have one, we don't have one or you are not sure. The only way to either prove or disprove my hypothesis is research. My door is open to anyone who wants to get involved  in research. The other page is my hypothesis on how our entity accesses and/or finds  its physical host or hosts. I call it  my signal page.  Once again research is required to either prove or disprove my hypothesis.  If you are someone working in an associated field with access to research equipment, I would love to hear from you.

The Brain

Read my page on the Brain

I am not sure how to present this topic without it becoming a medical journal that only people in the medical profession can understand. Please take the time to read my page on the brain before posting to the topic. It is not easy to discuss this topic without turning it into a medical journal and I humbly ask those of you in the medical profession to frame your comments in laymen terms.

There is one section that anyone conducting brain research should read. I mention the Bolles Method in the section and anyone, who has any  thought on the research I propose, I would really like to hear from. 

The topic is "Does the structure of the human brain facilitate or deny the possibility of reincarnation?" We know  that physics does not deny the possibility of  an entity imprinted with the footprint of  the human mind. Can we say the same about the structure of the  brain? The brain has to have the ability to accept the entity at creation and release it  at physical death. We do not have to prove it can. The only argument that would invalidate my proposed research  would be proving there is  no way the brain could support the coming and going of an unique form of energy.   

Anyone who is an expert on the human brain is invited to assist me with this topic.

Related Phenomona

Read my page on Related Phenomena 

This blog has a ten page limitation so I had to combine the remaindering topics unto one page.The included topics are all indicators  that aid weight to my hypothesis  that reincarnation is happening. I encourage discussion about all of them but I would like to single out savant autism and autism in general as the one area we have been ignoring the most. Autistic children experience savant abilities and  far more paranormal events than most children do.  Some experience recall but not to the degree  the children studied by Doctor Stevenson and Doctor Tucker have.  I can only assume everyone is focused on the medical aspects of Autism and on the research for cures for a condition that is on the rise  around the world.

The purpose of this post is to discuss the information I have outlined and whether it adds creditability to the possible existence of reincarnation. Please include the name of the topic along with any specific paragraphs from my page on the subjects. Each paragraph has an unique alphanumeric indicator.

Homosexuality

Read my page on Homosexuality

This topic really belongs under related phenomena suggesting reincarnation  but it is a controversial subject especially now that we have  revoked don't ask don't  tell and many States are in the process of or already have sanctioned  gay couples as being legally married. We still have a long ways to go before all people accept gay couples as being morally married.

I go into this subject in more detail on my  page dedicated to Homosexuality. I see homosexuality as a largely overlooked clue indicating that reincarnation is happening. Once reincarnation is proved, current arguments stating, "Homosexuality is  a choice!", will no longer be sustainable. Hopefully one result will be many homosexuals, who have a hard time feeling good about themselves, will accept their life for what it is.

The debate in this case is, will proving reincarnation change the way society and homosexuals look at the issue? This debate is not about whether homosexuality is right or wrong and any posts to that affect will be deleted. I am especially interested in homosexuals who feel they have been reincarnated  in the wrong gender and any one who feels they can recall a previous life that involves gender change needs to contact a researcher and tell them their story.

Abortion

Read my page on Abortion

This beyond any doubt is one of the most controversial topics in this country. The subject is difficult to address because medical science has  steadfastly refused to define what constitutes a human being. If there was any way to extend the doubt to preconception they would but common sense dictates that a human being is not possible until an egg has been fertilized.  I haven't researched when that decision was finally made but it was a long time ago. Medical science has made huge strides since then but we remain stuck  at conception  being the moral compass  for the creation of a human being.  In contrast birth has become the legal determination for creation of a human being though most modernized nations have made abortion illegal in the third trimester. No matter, the two points of view  couldn't be further apart if they tried. There is one exception. A person who murders a pregnant woman can be charged with a double homicide. The reasoning being  the women wanted to have her baby and would have, had she been allowed to live.

There is no humor in this subject. The pain and suffering caused by  the inability to sit down and come to a reasonable solution on either side is  practically unmeasurable. Not only are the lives of the unborn affected, relationships and families are torn apart by the opposing points of view. Religious beliefs are shaken to the core, shattered and even denied by the decisions of women who find themselves pregnant when they had made no plans to raise or bear a child.

The mental and physical health of  both women and men are compromised and tragic decisions end in the murder of adults as well as children. All that and society still refuses to compromise.

All the above is why I have included the topic in this blog. You can read more about this subject on my page on abortion. The topic of this debate is will proving reincarnation is fact change the laws and this nation and the worlds moral outlook on abortion?

This will be a no holds barred discussion as I see both sides as being responsible for the current dilemma. My hope is proving reincarnation will get both sides to sit down and take a much harder look at each others points of view. Please try and stick to the topic.

Environment

Read my page on the Environment

All that I need to say about reincarnations  relationship to the environment  can be found on my environment page. It is a topic  that is discussed heavily but very little change results from all the discussion.  My contention is reincarnation may add a new wrinkle and hopefully more people will take it more seriously then they do now. The topic for this debate is, will proving reincarnation is a fact  make people take environmental issues more seriously? Tell me what you think.

Evolution

Read my page on Evolution

I don't have a lot to add to my page on evolution.  It is the reason for the season when it comes to reincarnation if it in fact is happening today. If it isn't happening now it will happen in the future because physical DNA is not set up to adapt to the rapid changes ability and knowledge are bringing to mankind. I believe reincarnation is happening now and has been happening since the dawn of mankind but that is what this debate  is all about.

Please do not quote scripture or other solely religious argument against the concept. Theistic Evolution attempts to recognize scientific concepts but the focus here is on reincarnation being  a result of species adaptation in human beings. If God exists, evolution is part of Gods plan which, by default, makes reincarnation part of God's plan.  Do not attempt to make it part of any organized faiths plan. Any posts  that attempt to discredit reincarnation solely on religious grounds will be deleted. If God exists all of natural science is Gods plan including reincarnation. Any attempt  to portray it otherwise is a lot more far fetched than my hypothesis that reincarnation occurs.   

The debate is, is reincarnation a result of species evolution in mankind? I do not want to limit this debate to scientists only but I encourage any scientist who feels they have  something to add in laymen' s terms to please post to this debate.Of special interest to me is what are the capabilities of DNA and what may be its future capabilities as that information could deny the possibility of reincarnation or  could lead to it no longer being required. I seriously doubt we are going to adapt into  ethereal beings with no form but we cannot rule it out.

Politics

Read my page on politics.

By  politics I mean all current forms of governments that are considered legitimate that are currently practiced on this planet. They will all be affected once reincarnation is proven. To read  my  write up on this topic please click here.

I don't have a lot to add to my page other than to frame the direction I want this debate to go. As an example  let's take a current problem  we have here in America, illegal immigration.  We take a group of people  who through no fault of their own were not born in this country and criminalize them simply because they want to come to our country. There are two sides to this debate which  neither  seems to want to listen to. If one steps back  and tries to remain objective, it becomes obvious we create this problem  whether there is any reason to do so or not.


The topic here is what effect, if any, will proving reincarnation have on illegal immigration?  I think the effect of reincarnation will be obvious but I want to know how it might affect the way you look at the topic.

Lets take one scenario where the effect will be one or two magnitudes higher, the country of Israel. Now we are talking  some real have duty issues. An Al Qaida operative  could easily die on a mission to Palestine and be  reincarnated as a Jew if reincarnation is a fact. Maybe God/Allah won't let that happen but I don't believe that and should it happen,  there will be no virgins for the hapless operative who instead will  be raised by a Jewish mother.  I am not trying to make light of what has serious implications for all involved but I do believe the above examples certainly sets the tone for this debate 

Remember keep it simple and keep it on topic.

Religion

Read my Page on Religion

The practice of religion fulfills us, confuses us and can lead to obscene acts of atrocity or charitable works beyond imagination.  There are so many mysteries to life mankind literally has no alternative to faith. Sadly faith can be used as tool by those who seek power over their fellow men and any man or woman who denies their gullibility makes them an easy mark for those who would take advantage of them.

In my page on religion I introduce what I think is a new approach to the subject and how reincarnation, once proven, will surely impact it.

Please try and stay on topic and refrain from quoting scripture, whatever the source, as I will delete  all diatribes about the  benefits of one faith over the other.  As a matter of record I am a Deist who has practiced many religions before arriving at my current belief. Because of the influences of cultures and teachings in our youth, I advise all people to listen to their internal skeptic until truly inspired by whatever faith touches you. Try to understand why any faith appeals to you and be skeptical of any personal rewards or gain that could come from sources other than God.

The one thing we all need to consider whether  you believe in a God, Gods or don't, is knowledge is what is and there is no requirement for it to serve any mans faith or lack of faith. It has and will change all faiths and non faiths as we discover new  information. If you believe in God all the knowledge we possess and will learn comes from God. If you are a non believer in God, it is that which we have not discovered and let it, along with the things we already know, be the guide for your moral and philosophical development. 

Once again, please try and stay on topic,  which is reincarnation and the role it will play on religion. That includes evidence against reincarnation other than scripture. I will engage in dialog  regarding the history of religion as it is pertinent to this discussion. An example is why were all the references and teachings regarding reincarnation dropped from the Christian faith?

Thank you and may God or whoever you desire bless you.

The Right Tool

(If you are new to this blog please go to my first entry.)

It is my hypothesis the moment of reincarnation, in order to occur,  will be observable if  we can find the proper tool to observe it.  We may have to look in a new area to see the phenomena but I believe the odds are we will be able to detect the event utilizing EEG technology.  If we cannot the research would need to be expanded out side of of the frequency ranges we currently detect.

Since the developing human being is inside it's mothers womb, attempting to implement a monitoring device could  place the unborn and it's mother at risk.  In cases where there  are medical reasons to do so, the risk could improve the chances of normal development but we would be dealing with a compromised fetal development possibly resulting in undecipherable data. We need to be able to monitor the unborn's EEG  when there are no known complications.

There has been a lot of research done on the gestation of humans. If an entity  is going to move into a developing brain  it will happen somewhere between  the 20th and 27th week of a normal pregnancy.  That window will be narrowed considerably when research commences. The event we are looking for will happen very rapidly. All transference's of energy when one is dealing with phenomena  in  this frequency range happen rapidly. There is every reason to believe it will have an unique signature as it is an unique event. It is also my hypothesis there will be a related event  where the developing brain signals it is ready for the process to occur. That event may have a longer base line.

I believe, I call it a beacon, is necessary because, in energy form, we have no sensory perception and have no awareness of the passage of time or the physical world.  We all experience the phenomena when we  go to sleep at night and most of us have been under a general anesthesia that disconnects our  consciousness from our sensory perceptions. Communication and motion will happen at the quantum level. I will talk about this more later but right now it's time to introduce the tool.

The standard EEG device requires the placement of  sensors on the human skull which are then connected to a recording and display device utilizing  lead wires. Obviously any attempt to connect sensors with their accompanying wires to an unborn infant in the womb could seriously compromise the health of the unborn and the  birth mother. There has been some research in this area. Unborn's who have been aborted in the 20th to 25th week of pregnancy  have been studied utilizing EEG technology in at least one program. For obvious moral and legal reasons, research of this nature should never be condoned.

EEG is being  used with neonatal patients in cases where the newborn infant has suffered trauma or birth deformity so the technology does exist giving us databases on the wave patterns associated  with the recently formed human brain.

The event  we are looking for could easily be masked or compromised by any sort of trauma or deformity. This study needs to be conducted on healthy unborn's  with no known complications during the pregnancy with one possible exception. In cases where in utero surgical repair is required there could be a medical benefit in monitoring the brain waves of the  developing fetus. Monitoring the brainwave patterns of the unborn would require a wireless EEG. They do exist though all I am aware of are still under development. Ideally the monitoring device needs to be external to the womb and would probably consist of an array of sensors encircling  the birth mothers abdomen. There would be two basic types of sensors, ones designed to monitor the brainwaves of the developing fetus and  ones passively tracking the position of the fetus  in order to establish the correct geometry for the sensors detecting brainwaves. To my knowledge  no such device is currently being researched though it would be of great benefit  in cases where the pregnancy is being compromised by deformity or disease.

Wireless technology is required in either case. The sensor array encircling the abdomen would be subject to massive interference from lead placement, clothing  and mobility. Since we  do not know when the event will occur, monitoring will have to be continuous from week 20  though week 27 of  the pregnancy. 

The bulk of the research for  the external array will involve the transference of energy through amniotic fluid and the monitoring of pressure changes on the birth mothers abdomen as the fetus moves in the womb. Most of  the research has been done on the wireless requirements. There has been extensive research on transferring energy  through liquid that will apply to this application.  To my knowledge,  none of that research has explored the environment under consideration. Since there are medical benefits associated with any research in this area no one should consider the research not worthy of funding or consideration. If we do discover a moment of life, and I believe we will, it will impact every facet of living one can envision. Humanity doesn't adjust well to living on a flat world that turns out to be round but look at the advances in science and knowledge and how  past  major milestones have changed our society.

In summation, our tool comes in two forms. The one closest to development  would be used when in utero surgery is involved and there is a medical benefit to the patient. The data gathered will be compromised by the trauma or illness and evaluation will be more difficult. The event may be so significant there will be no question when it occurs. The debate  then becomes what does the event tell us?

The tool we need the most will take longer to develop.  There should be no problem finding volunteers for the program. Once again, there are many medical benefits for doing the research even if we find nothing to indicate  the merging of an entity  with a physical body.

The launching point  for this new tool will be based on the ongoing research being conducted on wireless EEG devices, transmission of energy  in liquids, development of a monitoring array and the research being conducted at the University of Virginia by Dr. Tucker and his department.

The most recent work on wireless EEG that I have found is being conducted at the University of San Diego in La Jolla California.    The original wireless research was conducted at The University of Sussex in the 1980's.  The latest report I have been available to find is listed in the Applied Physics Journal (AIP).

For reincarnation to be possible we have to exist in wave form when we are separated from a physical body.  Research has been conducted and is ongoing, attempting to weigh our entity or soul. In 1907 Dr.  Duncan "Om" MacDougall conducted experiments, no one has tried to repeat, that attempted to weigh a change in body weight as a person died. The conditions were not sufficiently controlled and his results have been debated many times. Currently Dr. Gerry Nahum wants to conduct experiments with no funding for an instrument  he feels will detect the passing of a soul or entity from the body. I believe, acknowledging the existence of an energy component to the cycle of life as part of the evolutionary process in an advanced life form, adds credibility to any work being conducted in this field. We spend billions of dollars researching cosmetics and a plethora of other products that add nothing of real value in our lives. In 1907 Dr. MacDougall did detect something. That something may have been nothing more than the results of a faulty experiment but he may have actually detected something that science cannot discount as being impossible. Have we learned nothing since the days of Galileo?  

I have  done considerable research regarding the right tools especially since  I started experiencing a visual phenomena comprised of diffused violet light patterns in my field of view. The patterns are normally circular in shape and  and feature a constant light source, literally like someone is shining a violet laser into my eyes. I go into detail on the phenomena in my blog "Do you wanna see dead people?"  I apologize for the deliberate attempt to lure readers in using references to an once popular movie but in the world of internet babble  you do what you have to do. My research and experiences  have led to a hypothesis. The entity  that exists after physical death enters and exits our body via our retinas. Experimentation in 1942 deduced that the human eye is capable of resolving a single photon of light. They chose red light for their experiment. Had they chosen violet light instead we could be living in a far different world then we are today.  We need to repeat the experiments using  light from the other end of the spectrum.  My studies also show we need to experiment with the CRY1 and CRY 2 proteins in the human eye as I hypothesis they are involved in the process. These studies can all be done with existing technology and I strongly suggest someone look into the phenomena associated with near ultraviolet and violet light in the human eye and brain stem.
 
This concludes the  introduction to this blog. The posts to follow allow feedback to all the topics I have introduced. They will fulfill the second purpose of this blog which is to continue expanding the research  as there are a lot of people out there who have a lot more knowledge than I do when it comes to specific topics.  I hopefully have avoided any major pitfalls  in my research so I expect no earth shattering posts but life is full of surprises and I say bring it on and let's see where it takes us.

To those of you that feel I should be tied to a stake and set on fire, please stick to science. I understand that western scripture, no matter whose,  does not support my conclusions but that didn't stop Galileo. I am no Galileo but I do find myself in a similar position.  Suffice to say the impact of what I propose will be enormous should  my  hypothesis be proved. Our current paradigm on how we all conduct our lives will be drastically altered, I believe, to the benefit of mankind.  Very few oxes will remain ungored.

It Came to Pass

(If you are new to this blog please go to my first entry.)

The event that started me down this road was  my layoff last year as a sports writer/editor. Out of  boredom  I started reading anything and everything  that sparked my interest.  I was amazed by the amount of time, effort and money people put into all the  varied sub sets of existentialism  that continue to surface in modern day society.  The amount of time mankind spends  attempting to promote the importance of each us as individuals amazes me. I understand why. Self worth and confidence are vital to ones living their life but  can't we can feel good about ourselves and still recognize it is not all about us? The question I always ask people is, if we are  that important why is the universe so big?  There is a message there. That message may have been put there by a creator or it may just be there.

I recognize the  religious implications but this blog is NOT a debate on religion. It is about reality and our understanding of it. Beyond is not the issue being discussed. Infinity is real. The topic here is are we along for the ride?

I only bring up the above to set the stage  for where my mind was when I came across the research being done by Doctor Tucker at the University of Virginia.  I honestly did not know that there had been any significant  research done on reincarnation and I  couldn't believe  what I was reading. Of course there is always room for fraud in any human endeavor but birthmarks identical to wounds suffered in a purported previous life are hard to ignore.  In the past year I have read everything I could get my hands on regarding reincarnation and my conclusion is the possibility exists.

There is no scientific reason to dispute it. The laws of physics support the possibility. I provide no links because those that  can comprehend the physics required in order for an entity to exist in energy form don't need supporting arguments.

Doctor Tucker and others are studying the phenomena of reincarnation. I chose to focus on the process of reincarnation. I found studies on out of body experiences, suspended animation, and other mental conditions that have some connection but no studies on the process. If money can be found to study the phenomena what is the reasoning behind no one studying the process?

I see only two possibilities, There either are no tools available that allow a study to be conducted or no one wants to be the first person to tell everyone the world is round. There is good reason for the last one to be the main factor.

Religion and politics stand to lose most of their power to influence peoples lives. Look at all the religions and political beliefs that have come and gone in the course of human history. Reincarnation  would be a reality that no current western religion or any current political system could survive.  We lend lip service to creating a better world for our children to live in. The ball game gets  a lot more serious if that becomes the world you are going to live in. 

It turns out the second reason is the  only reason because we do have the tools to conduct the research and this blog is my effort to get the ball rolling.

Click on the following link for the final page, "The Right Tool" , of my introduction.

Getting Started

The obvious title to this blog, plagiarism aside, is Infinity and Beyond but this  blog is all about our propensity to overlook the obvious and search for deeper meanings even though the meanings we pursue have  little to do with the reality  we find ourselves in.

Overlooking the obvious sometimes results in terrific comedy. Jerry Seinfeld put together one of the best television shows ever done on how we complicate our lives with the problems we create for ourselves  even when the solution is right in front of our face.

Buzz Lightyear's "To Infinity and Beyond!" is a perfect example of how we ignore the reality. in this case, infinity and pursue the highly improbable or impossible, beyond. Hell it even sounds good to me and I know enough about science to understand how impossible beyond is.  

Many of mankind's greatest discoveries have been right under our noses waiting to be discovered. In some cases it  has taken an accident or unplanned event to reveal  a mystery someone was trying to solve. In all cases we had to develop the tools and the skills to understand and analyze the phenomena before recognizing  the answer.

It is my hypothesis that we now have the tools and skills needed to understand  what happens when  we each come into existence and when our bodies die.  If I am right, this new knowledge will impact every facet of our lives and mankind will have to look at reality for what it is and not what we think we want it to be.

Change doesn't come easily as the unknown provides a wealth of resources to those who seek wealth, power and notoriety.  It didn't go well for you  if you were among the first to suggest the world was round and the earth revolved around the sun. When it comes to physical science and technology, society  is a lot more flexible than it used to be until any new knowledge impacts faith or politics. Push those boundaries  and you find yourself  back on a flat world.  It makes a great situation comedy for television but our continued denial of reality and exhaustion of our resources pursuing the will o' wisps of the improbable and impossible diminishes us as a species and defeats the purpose of  either our creation or evolution.

 I fervently hope this blog will act as a catalyst to instigate research into recording what happens to the unborn in the 20th to 27th week of pregnancy. I do not have the credentials nor the finances to pursue the research. I have done all I can do researching whether  we have the tools and skills  to conduct the research and I believe we do. I have written several scientific  groups that should be interested in pursuing this research with no success. Since I do not have any credentials I can understand why  but this is far too important for me to just let it go.

At the risk of sounding too corny, this is an area where we have to, "go where no man has gone before".
