"The authors conducted a “multiverse analysis” of nearly a hundred thousand different computer models.

They crunched data from 181 countries."

They could've just asked ONE of us and we would have told them that it was all an oleaginous plot to take our freedoms away. 🤷♀️🕶
Are we to believe that because there were a hundred thousand computer models that the quality of the input was somehow better? Why not a hundred million computer models? How much attention could they possibly pay to the input with that many models?
They couldn't pay *any* attention, so they assigned that part to AI.
I'm sick to bloody death of the "modeling" crap. It's just GIGO. Computers were supposed to do *computations* faster than humans, not make shit up based on agenda-driven inputs. You know, John Ioannidis has said that most published research findings are false, and that “claimed research findings may often be simply accurate measures of the prevailing bias.” Combine that with 11,000 papers retracted in the last two years, and maybe the problem is that models aren't data. Models aren't research. They're just bias, shaken and stirred for money.
not to mention that each model is completely devoid of any common sense - like most leftists - anyone with any common sense would know that your don't inject experimental chemicals into your body, and that putting 1/2 of the country out of work and bankrupting hundreds of thousands of companies and people is not a particularly good idea
It is excellent. I plan to read the other articles in full as I have time.
I know of no other way to put this, but I know that the One Who created me gave me the gift of discernment through all of these things. But I would have been caught off-guard anyway, if I had not listened to my teenaged son, back in the 90’s when he warned me about the corruption in our own government.
He is now in his mid 40’s and is much wiser than I was at that age, or even at this age.
Your article is much needed, and (with your permission) I would like to share it with my family and friends. We have a Midrash once a week and the discussion is, at times, intense. A couple of scholars, two…sometimes three, authors. The rest of us laypeople just asking questions. Sometimes questions for which no one has answers. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Hey CSStone! Please share! No permission needed ! Thank you for these words. Greatly appreciated. And you’re right, the gift of discernment is what we need to develop more off.
Thanks again for this comment and so glad for your son! Let’s chat soon!
Midrash (מדרשׁ) is an interpretive act, seeking the answers to religious questions (both practical and theological) by plumbing the meaning of the words of the Torah. (In the Bible, the root d-r-sh [דרשׁ] is used to mean inquiring into any matter, including occasionally to seek out God's word.)Midrash
We have a Bible Study group. We study the same portions of Scripture, we discuss it…..trying to make connections. I had always heard of the ‘crimson thread) woven from Genesis (Bereshit) through the Revelation of Yeshua. And, from beginning to end we are finding that crimson thread.
At the end, we discuss end of days events/current events. I have learned more in the last 14 years than I ever had in a formal setting. It’s amazing what you can learn when you can ask the teacher/speaker/preacher/pastor/author questions.
I read where someone on here started calling the bureaucrats running our country and writing our laws (instead of Congress) as public ‘serpents’ instead of servants. There are many demonic beings in DC and Big Pharma. And we can see things links that in Scripture as well. But when you simply warm a seat in a congregation, you may never hear about it. Franklin O’Kanu seems to be over the target in the articles I have read.
Read your article, awesome. I liked CStones comment about a weekly Midrash with his family and friends. Like CS I have forwarded your article to myself to get into the links you added.
Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus teaches that if a brother has something against us, we must be reconciled with him before we offer our gift at the altar. This reconciling requires a change of heart and mind.
The word often misleadingly translated as “repent” is metanoiete. This Greek term is based upon two words, meta (beyond) and nous (mind or spirit), and thus, in its most basic form, it means something like “go beyond the mind that you have.”
The English word “repent” has a moralizing overtone, suggesting a change in behavior or action, whereas Jesus’ term seems to be hinting at a change at a far more fundamental level of one’s being. Jesus urges his listeners to change their way of knowing, their way of perceiving and grasping reality, their mode of seeing.
What Jesus implies is this: a new state of affairs has arrived, the divine and human have met, but the way you customarily see is going to blind you to this novelty. Minds, eyes, ears, senses, perceptions—all have to be opened up, turned around, revitalized. Metanoia, mind transformation, is Jesus’ first recommendation.
2 Corinthians 4:4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
Philippians 4:4-8
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. 5 Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

"Oleaginous." What a fine adjective that despite being a lover of words, I admit never hearing until I started reading Jeff. I love all the ways C&C grows my brain. 😂
For sure! Also, we know how effective these models are.... we’ve seen it with climate change projections. No. Just ask people with some discernment and we’ll tell you.
They're not speaking to us; they're speaking to, trying to persuade, those who still haven't seen it, those who will otherwise be standing in line for H5N1 or H5N8 vaccines or who will comply with unconstitutional orders or wear silly masks again, to the people who believed the models back in 2020.
Models aren't the main problem. StatNews head-faked us into the weeds: “Improving . . . the public’s trust . . . is a long and complicated journey.” They should have admitted, "Scientists made their journey back to credibility impossible. They lied. People died. Hold scientists accountable, and Science will be fine."
Lol!! Fact is there WAS a difference in the outcomes; 40% saw improvement from Government abuse of citizens & the rights, 60% saw a worsening trend from Government abuses of the citizens & our rights. (Roughly)
Abuse harms people AND it's wrong, illegal & unconstitutional.

Computer models are like political opinion polls, both showing what their funders want them to show.
Models are never evidence. They are a hypotheses to be tested. The evolution of science seems to have mutated beyond recognition.
Evidence is anything that any court will allow in litigation.
Just like the climate change computer models, garbage in, garbage out.

They should model how quickly I’m going to break my foot off in their *sses if they try to pull that crap again.
^^like Computer modeling is as much a facade as "human modeling". All a false presentation to sell you something you don't want or need.
Hear, hear!
not to mention that each model is completely devoid of any common sense - like most leftists - anyone with any common sense would know that your don't inject experimental chemicals into your body, and that putting 1/2 of the country out of work and bankrupting hundreds of thousands of companies and people is not a particularly good idea
Well...whether or not something is a "particularly good idea" depends on what their goal is...right?
Kinda like counting counterfeit money… or ballots.
We should always trust the computer, especially in the tallying of numbers.
Yes, as someone who spends part of each day cursing under my breath at my company's CRM and accounting software, er, I mean praising it, I agree.
Dominion.
Yea Dominion. They still got it. I am not optimistic. Only France doesn`t have it
That’s why we’re all so sure this newest fad, AI, is going to change the world
🎯
I said the same thing in another article smh. Plenty of people were saying these mandates were bad ideas smh.
It’s hard to believe, but our governments may have been taking part in the act of Democide and Menticide: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/democide-and-menticide
I went to the link and read the article.
It is excellent. I plan to read the other articles in full as I have time.

Thank you.
Pardon my ignorance, but what is a Midrash? I did look it up, but the definition didn't seem to fully relate to your use of the term.
From myjewishlearning.com;
Midrash (מדרשׁ) is an interpretive act, seeking the answers to religious questions (both practical and theological) by plumbing the meaning of the words of the Torah. (In the Bible, the root d-r-sh [דרשׁ] is used to mean inquiring into any matter, including occasionally to seek out God's word.)Midrash

Franklin O’Kanu seems to be over the target in the articles I have read.
Anyway, discussions of Scripture and applying them to real life is what is called a ‘Midrash’
Excellent writing Franklin. Democide- let me count the ways: pharma, poisoned food, geoengineering, military industrial complex…
May have???!!
Read your article, awesome. I liked CStones comment about a weekly Midrash with his family and friends. Like CS I have forwarded your article to myself to get into the links you added.
I’m female. Born as such, remain at 72 still….a female.
No worries. Cannot detect with just one initial.
Thank you so much for this Sherry! Greatly appreciated :)
We need mind transformation like Jesus taught.
Matthew 5:20–26

Right! Perception is key.

I’m so glad to know God. Can’t imagine dealing with this world without Him.
Excellent. I ordered the book. Sounds like what is needed at this time.
Thank you so much for your support! This will be sent out by this weekend! :)
"Oleaginous." What a fine adjective that despite being a lover of words, I admit never hearing until I started reading Jeff. I love all the ways C&C grows my brain. 😂
I always think margarine. I seem to recall it being called Oleo at one point. Or maybe that was a brand name.
I love to sneak it in sometimes 😁
For sure! Also, we know how effective these models are.... we’ve seen it with climate change projections. No. Just ask people with some discernment and we’ll tell you.
The Heartland Institute has published a book of charts showing that global warming is a complete fiction.
I think the old,
If rock is wet, it’s rainy.
If rock is dry, it isn’t rainy.
If rock is white, it’s snowy.
If rock is gone, its windy model works just fine. 😝
They're not speaking to us; they're speaking to, trying to persuade, those who still haven't seen it, those who will otherwise be standing in line for H5N1 or H5N8 vaccines or who will comply with unconstitutional orders or wear silly masks again, to the people who believed the models back in 2020.
😂😂
exactly. their favorite is to conflate "precision" vs. accuracy, and that's exactly what the computer models are for.
It is precise to say 2+2 = 5.3765....but it's not accurate.
simple but subtle to fool most.
It's my belief that too much confidence is being placed in computer models.
I’m confident in your belief.
Computer models predicted 10k American casualties in the first few weeks of gulf war one.
We know how that turned out
Models aren't the main problem. StatNews head-faked us into the weeds: “Improving . . . the public’s trust . . . is a long and complicated journey.” They should have admitted, "Scientists made their journey back to credibility impossible.

Ain't no grant money in asking plebes for answers.
Lol!! Fact is there WAS a difference in the outcomes; 40% saw improvement from Government abuse of citizens & the rights, 60% saw a worsening trend from Government abuses of the citizens & our rights. (Roughly)
Abuse harms people AND it's wrong, illegal & unconstitutional.
Rocket Science? I think not.
Haven't we realized that it was the models that got us into this mess?
Computer models are only as good as the data put into it.
Trump thought it was a dangerous disease so that’s what happened
