Religious authority

The control maw

The ability to encompass another digital structure is a facet of the control maw. True flexion in a structure can only be created by ever greater digital detail. If you could look at the discrete ideas that create a control maw structure you would see that each idea is ungrained. When flex is applied the maximum possible expansion is determined by the grain of the meme, the finer the grain -the larger the maw. When differing control maws are available the digital self will impute the pattern using the maw with the largest magnitude or the finest grain.

Your digital self does not contain ideas, it eats them to grow, just like our projections eat food. Your few added comments are far more interesting than everything that sneakerman says.

James, nothing more than another massive rationalization.
No, religions have not failed because individuals have been unable to scale some spiritual plane...but, rather, religions have failed because they are, in essence, practitioners of devil worship.

Let me explain. Religions, as governments or any other central controlling authority, are empowered by hijacking the future. The result is the invalidation of the individual...where GOD (the future according to the Book of Galt) can only reside. The absence of GOD is the devil.

Is that clear, James.
