On Feeding the Multitudes and Finding a Meaning in It

Some things aren’t filled with ulterior meanings. It’s just Christ was a miracle worker, and increased the food for the multitudes. Basically, you could take that to mean that if you’re wealthy to feed the hungry. Of course, Jesus did it twice… you’d wonder why He didn’t just do that all the time. But, He healed many diseases, too. He also cleansed the temple twice.

I guess, the two times He fed the multitudes, is a metaphor about timing. How, to do the right thing in the moment, rather than trying to do everything haphazardly, but to do the good deed you have in front of you. And only that, since it’s in your purview. As a lot of people believe they have to go out looking for good to do. No… let Jesus be your guide, it will find you if it’s in your capability. And if it is, do it.

Another Midrash

Eve tempted Adam to eat from the fruit after being tempted by the Serpent, and God set forth a redemption plan, to have her seed crush the Serpent’s Head, when he bruised the Seed’s heels. That Abraham had a son, Isaac, and was called to sacrifice him, but God stayed His hand, and told Abraham He would provide the sacrifice and that Abraham’s seed would bless all the nations. That Jacob wrestled with God, and prevailed, and received the blessing that the deliverer of the World would come from his seed. That Moses led the Children of Jacob out of Egypt, and into the Wilderness, and then Joshua, his predecessor, conquered the land of Canaan after Moses died. That David, the King of Israel, was issued a decree that he would have a seed that would sit on the Throne of Israel forever. That this Seed is God’s Son, made manifest in the Flesh. That He came and lived a perfect moral example for us to follow, and set down a Law so magnificent, it is superior to 30 sages. That He died and raised from the Dead, and His followers witnessed Him raised from the dead, and died believing it, sometimes unbelievable deaths. That He will return one day, being born of Zion, and be swiftly called up to the clouds, and return with 144,000 saints to slay all the sinners of the world at Armageddon. That He will live and reign on the Earth for 1,000 years, and then defeat Satan and Death in the Battle of Gog and Magog, by consuming the hordes numbered greater than the sands of the Sea with fire. And then He will marry New Jerusalem, which descends from the clouds, and is a city more glorious than we can imagine.

Paul the Flower

Walking through the forest,
I realize, there were a yellow wild flower
And a grey Mushroom.
The flower was a thick petal
Chubby and fat, like a maid's skirt.
The mushroom round circled on the head
And curved up, with a brown top and thin stem.
I realized, Paul was like the Flower
So tall, and educated and elegant,
Knowing Epimenides and Homer
And Plato and such.
The other apostles like the mushroom
Short in stature, earthy and inedible.
An educated Pharisee must be chosen 
By God, to bring the religion to its zenith;---
And chosen and elected, a once persecutor of the church.
So also the Holy Spirit can minister through our learning.

Another Midrash

 [T]he law condemns everyone, for it’s the punishment of God meted out against all sin, and that Christ redeemed us from it, through His blood. By having Christ, that law is no longer in effect for us, so we live by grace, but without Christ that Law will condemn us in the flesh, and destroy us in the slavery of our sin. For Christ is a New Priesthood, and with a change of Priesthood and Covenant—through Abraham’s seed—comes a change of law.

The Progression of America

1989 - 1995 I love the Johnny Appleseed, George Washington Cut Down a Cherry Tree, John Henry, Honest Abe, Little House on the Prairie, Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes, Elvis and Beatles America. 

1996 - 2007 I half liked the George Bush is dumb, Bill Clinton, Oprah Winfrey is such a good person, Bill Gates, Sopranos, Harry Potter, Eminem, Beyonce America.

2008 - 2014 I didn't even like the Obama first black president, Ted Cruz, Steve Jobs, Famous for being famous Kim Kardashian, Game of Thrones, Fifty Shades of Grey, Kanye West America. 

2015 - 2025 And never the Donald Trump will build a wall, AOC, Genius Maybe Elon Musk, Gavin Newsome, Georgia and Ginny, Crossfire, Tekashi69, Drake America.

Cretans Are Always Liars

Paul heard a Judaizer say "Cretans are always Liars." The source is a Cretan philosopher named Epimenides. Showing the distinction of contradiction... I think Paul was a learned enough man to expose the false prophets, for making a show of knowledge that the statement is paradoxical... for the Judaizer told the truth, but in that truth were indeed a veiled lie. Showing "Cretans are always liars" is itself a lie, as that syntactic idea exposes the unbeliever and the Judaizer, that even when telling the truth, they still lie.

Calculus Meditation

One might rack their mind, and say, "Calculus is only an approximation." Because it seems too difficult to gather every point on a slope and curve. Yet, hear me out... It is not an approximation, because the calculus turns the curve into a line, and each addition to the formula is a newly defined part of the curve. So, the infinite sum works over the curve and turns what is curved into a singular line, making what is a curve into a straight line.

Errata - Also, Calculus works from formulas, that make repeated patterns, by plotting points and then forming a curve through it. So, the exact math comes from the formula, and forging it through plot points.

Errata Secundo - One could, also, compound formulas, and build them on top of each other, for specific parts of a curve, integrating new segments to it, to get an exact curve, taking each segment piece by piece. Though difficult with hand calculations, a computer should handle it perfectly, and is indeed why we have them in the first place.

P Versus NP

I'm a total amateur at math. I just go for the simple stuff. And try to understand that. I did find out why an ellipse needs calculus to solve. The curve isn't related to Pi. I attacked it from every angle, looking for a simpler formula. The best I had wasn't right. I like to know the theorems behind it. Like Calculus and Trigonometry. I don't do advanced stuff... although I think P Versus NP can't be solved. Some NP can't equal P. I think people, instead of looking for a shortcut, should break down the geometry of NP difficult equations, and do something like a Geometric Proof to find whatever they're looking for.
