...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

Jeffers, Meditation On Saviors

Church of Science:
Cultural evolution is running a thousand times faster than Darwinian evolution, taking us into a new era of cultural interdependence which we call globalization. And now, as Homo sapiens domesticates the new biotechnology, we are reviving the ancient pre-Darwinian practice of horizontal gene transfer, moving genes easily from microbes to plants and animals, blurring the boundaries between species. We are moving rapidly into the post-Darwinian era, when species other than our own will no longer exist, and the rules of Open Source sharing will be extended from the exchange of software to the exchange of genes. Then the evolution of life will once again be communal, as it was in the good old days before separate species and intellectual property were invented.

While continuing to keep the Motome Chijiwa suicide series on temporary hold this space would like to here point out that there were no, none, not any, references to the machinations and intimidations Scientologists have been repeatedly accused of throwing around and on non-institutional heretics and blasphemers and other enemies-of-LRonHubbardism who cross them up, or threaten to in some way.
So when Theresa Duncan says, before her odd and untimely little death, that she was being harassed and persecuted by the CoS, this is consistently refuted by mainstream journalists with a quote from the CoS itself, and some fragmenting noise from those in the know, from people who knew her. No quotes from anyone who's been hounded by the CoS, no quotes from anyone who knew her but felt there might be something behind the paranoid bizarrities Duncan evidently scattered around herself and Jeremy Blake.
Are there documented cases anywhere of people who have been hounded to death by large, self-protective feral organizations? Any in this country? And would those individuals be expected to be more, or less sane than your average blog/newspaper/magazine reader?
Were the FBI reading Hemingway's mail, just like he said they were?
More on this later.
Because really the only conspiracy theories that matter now concern those pathetic failed organizations and individuals who will not be partaking in Dyson and Co.'s Great Hive Union, or Great Union of the Hive-minded, or The Inevitable Flowering of the One True Lifeform as Determined and Enabled by "Us".
To have a respected scientific figure say this
"We are moving rapidly into the post-Darwinian era, when species other than our own will no longer exist"
at a time like this, is like... is like... it's like...
What you mean "we', White Man?
