Religion is a very complicated subject we want to believe in something but do not know which is the correct true worship, I believe all can be integrated to form the basis for what could be real. I believe in the paranormal, and the fact that we have our own gravitational energy and we are light entities, study of the mind is very important meditation is important as well because it stimulates areas of the brain in which you concentrate if the brain is a muscle than we have all underworked it which is why we most likely can not do the amazing things in which I believe we all can do we just need to workout our brain and focus on development. This is my view please be kind in understanding it.

What is Space . . . ?  . . . .Define it . . . . !

You see, Space can be measured very scientifically and precisely mathematically.

But defining it is not so easy.

Is it simply the "space" in a given area, such as a room? . . .

Yes, one could agree on the simplest level that would qualify but not be limited to defining space exclusively.

So then what is Space?

One could also argue that space is the distance between two points in time.

So now we are talking about space time?, . . . or are we?!?!

If we are then space can also be defined as electromagnetic waves or frequency.

So what does all of that really mean in the real word?, . . you ask, . . .

and that my friend is the POINT, "WHAT IS THE REAL WORD?!?!?"

If a second is as a Thousand years and Time equals space, which is all relevant only to the observer, or as I like to call it,

"The Thinker",

then what are we really talking about.

Mathematically it could be written very simply:

QuantumUniverse X∞ = Omniverse.

So, what the heck is that.

Put simply it is experiencing the existence of everything that is, was, and will forever be, on a Quantum or multi parallel universe level that will all lead to the singularity of the Omniverse.

See, it's that easy!

I’m officially done with this group I have resigned as an MP elect.  I’m tired of being shut out and ignored because I can’t afford to travel the globe.   I wish you the best but I’m out.

I have negelected creating my first blog post. For the most, part I attribute this to not knowing what to say or share on such a large and diverse platform. Still, not really understanding the true goal of Asgardia itself. Since joining I've been keeping up on Instagram and reading many of other community members posts.

Reading many of the political platforms recently shared I find myself feeling fortunate. So few people I've spoken to are aware of Asgardia. The people that are here are intelligent, progressive people, not just full of, but embodying human potential and HOPE.

I have not yet found the way I can best add to the community here. Regardless, I feel grateful to be a part of it and have the opportunity to contribute.

With thanks, love, and contemplation,

Jocelyn

And think about what I’m doing.  I’ve spent a lot of time watching people online in discord and Facebook and workplace try to open dialogue, only to get opinions thrown at them that are not necessarily helpful. I’m of the mind that I want to explain my thinking and understand theirs but at times must respectfully disagree and move on.  In no case does anyone need to just be rude for no reason. If someone posts an idea and wants to create a poll and you don’t agree or want to vote in the poll, the. Just move on.  If you have to take the time to say .... I’m not voting on this because it’s ridiculous .... that is unhelpful to say the least... by all means say your peace and be heard but don’t be rude.   My point is we have a constitution and code of conduct for a reason.  If we can’t be civil to each other online then we are doomed to fail at the start.

My tip is to not respond to a post right away, out of emotion,  take a breath reread the post and THEN make your point.

I think I will continue to monitor these apps and pages but I will get active in discussion when I can see people face to face and after that I will use whatever online platform we decide upon.

For those that I will soon be representing, what is the best way you would like to be able to communicate to me as a parlimentarian?  Do you prefer, Facebook, Discord, email?  How would you like to send along your thoughts and ideas?  Respond to this post and let me know!!!

so I'm going to hang out in Discord for a while and probably won't post on here for a bit as I'm trying to nail down communications for the MP role to one or two places.  I feel a bit scattered at the moment and want to get myself on track.  I will be back and will check in with the website, I'm not abandoning you, just moving over to that AP for now to get some work done.  See you over there folks.

Hey asgardians!! I hope your days are going well.  I’ve finally printed off a bunch of our website info so that I can dig through it and make notes.   I will do as much as I can online going forward, but needed to kick myself in the pants by reading it in hand.  I’m looking for the next schedule of events and I’ve already started to get questions and feed back from other citizens.  By the way if you see a member that would like to be in the parliament but cannot afford the fee, please consider helping them Out if you can.  I will do my best as well.  Keep the questions coming I will do my best to talk to you all just know that I work full time (as do so many of you) so my communication will mainly be at night east coast time.

Good day Asgardia.  How humbled and surprised I was to learn my name is on the list of Parliamentarian members.  I can only promise you that I will do the best I can with our first move forward.  I am happy to hear any concerns you may have and am looking forward to the next official steps in this new en devour.  We are all writing our names in the history books alongside those who have explored unknown territories before us.  Some will scoff, some will laugh, some will back us wholeheartedly.  Don't let anyone be a negative force in your attempts to achieve the new.  Welcome all and lets move onward and upward.

Good morning asgardia and happy Easter.  I’m excited to hear about any election updates that are out there and wanted to take a moment to say take some time for you today!   Me?  I’m baking a ham dinner and I’m thankful that I can do so.

I think I mentioned that I am the Vice President of a non- profit theater called the Springfield Community Players, in Springfield VT.  We have been around for almost 100 years, in fact, we are the longest continually running community theater (all volunteer) in the state of Vermont.

While I am looking to the future with my running for office in Asgardia, I am also working in the here and now with my theater group.  We are en devouring to get funding to upgrade out heating system and put in an air conditioning system to our theater.  We run out of a re purposed elementary school that was built back in the 1930's.  We have to shut down in November and re-open in April as our heating system uses so much oil it's too expensive and bad for the environment.  We are looking to change all that.

If you would just take a moment to look at my gofundme link and feel free to donate or share the link, I would appreciate it so much.

Water: Economic Commodity or Human Right? -- Christiana Z. Peppard

Author
Christiana Z. Peppard

April 2, 2015

Water is essential to biotic existence, and it is not a value-free substance, even as the availability of fresh, clean water is often taken for granted in the United States. In other parts of the world, billions of people lack potable water; their lives are constrained by its absence.

Fresh water is also a necessary resource for generating economic wealth and political power; corporations and governments contend over water in many regions of the world.

Who owns water, allocates it, manages it, receives it—in what ways and for what reasons? These are political, economic, and ethical questions.

Structurally entrenched patterns of privilege and injustice—such as access to fresh water—require action on many levels of scale and with the input of variegated forms of situated, moral creativity. In the twenty-first century, such issues of political ecology should interface productively with religious ethics.

Consider water: Should it be understood primarily as an economic commodity or as a fundamental human right? Fresh water is not like most other environmental goods or services. It is sine qua non (fundamental to ecosystemic and human existence) and sui generis (there is no substitute).

These features are universal but are not uniform. Yet for a range of reasons it took the United Nations General Assembly until 2010 to affirm a fundamental human right to water.

Given the U.N.’s rather recent endorsement, it surprises many observers that the Catholic Church has taken a moral position on this issue since at least 2003—insisting, in no uncertain terms, that fresh water is a unique and essential substance for human life; that it is a gift from God; and that therefore access to fresh water should be considered a fundamental human right.

In fact, the hierarchical magisterium has even referred to fresh water as a “right to life” issue, which is no small claim in the pelvically-focused United States. How might this insight resonate with environmental justice movements in the twenty-first century, in and beyond the pews?

Like many U.S. municipalities, the city of Detroit has significant segregation between relatively affluent (often white) middle-class suburban families and downtown residents with compressed earnings—many of whom are African-American, some of whom are unemployed.

During the summer of 2014, attempting to limit economic losses as part of the city’s bankruptcy management, Detroit Water and Sewerage District (DWSD) began shutting off water supply to accountholders in arrears, ranging from corporate clients to individual homeowners.

Implementation was uneven. Stories trickled out of people—some elderly, some homebound, many living below the poverty line—whose water had been cut off without an apparent appeals process.

National outcry by local water justice advocates attracted international attention, leading to a public condemnation by the U.N. special rapporteur on water and sanitation. Discrimination charges were filed by legal aid organizations on the grounds that the shutoffs disproportionately and unfairly affect African-American residents.

Detroit's arrangements of political economy, urban infrastructure governance, and structural racism converged to privilege certain human bodies over others and reveal that problems of environmental (in)justice exist right in the backyard of middle America.

These contests over water resonate globally with patterns of privilege and disenfranchisement in global political economy, even while specific cases vary. Ethical reasoning and prudent, justice-oriented norms for action in this planetary context can benefit from the engagement of religious communities and moral traditions.

The Catholic Church’s global, public endorsement of the right to water is but one example. There are many others.

In Detroit, where questions of water and justice remain visible and vexed, support for disenfranchised people can—and should—take practical, embodied forms.

One compelling and recent example comes from Islamic Relief U.S.A., which along with the Michigan Muslim Community Council donated $100,000 to defray water bill payments for impoverished Detroit residents. “It is important to us in our faith to help our neighbors,” said the CEO of Islamic Relief USA in January 2015.

To be sure, religious cosmologies or moral principles will not save the planet on their own. But they are crucial, often vibrant repositories of values and practices that might just help to make the world a more just, sustainable place—one municipality or human right at a time.
