UFO Whistleblowing

Last updated on: June 30, 2023 at 9:20 am By Ted Peters

UFO whistleblowing appears every day in news broadcasts. It is increasing attendance at the 2023 Roswell UFO Festival. Will we finally learn the truth from the US government regarding crashed spaceships and alien intelligence? No. Because deep down we really do not want to know what the Pentagon knows. If the total truth gets disclosed, we might lose our tacit belief in the omnipotence of the military gained by reverse engineering extraterrestrial technology. The tug of war between secrecy and disclosure is more important to us that finally learning what can be known. Read more

Buddhism and Science on Our Mind

Last updated on: June 25, 2023 at 6:41 pm By Ted Peters

In the dialogue between Buddhism and science, Buddhists believe they can offer a science of the mind that complements Western European discoveries about the physical world.

The proleptic power of new creation. Miracles 7

Last updated on: June 19, 2023 at 2:41 pm By Ted Peters

Rather than a push from past causes, present effects are the result of God's draw from the future. When God raised the dead Jesus from the dead on the first Easter, God exerted the same power to redeem as God exerts to create. Jesus' resurrection is a prolepsis of the eschatological new creation.

MAGA and Moral Decline

Last updated on: June 16, 2023 at 6:55 am By Ted Peters

Evolution and Involution in Vedic Science

Last updated on: July 10, 2023 at 2:49 pm By Ted Peters

Vedic science finds itself in a paradox. On the one hand, Vedic sience benefits from postcolonial and postmodern philosophy which denies universality to Western European modern science. These philosophies protect and legitimize local knowledge systems such as Hindu spirituality. On the other hand, proponents of Vedic science such as Swami Vivekananda and Sri Aurobindo want their Vedic version of science to share the universality currently enjoyed by scientists in every culture around the world.

Jesus’ Nature Miracles. Miracles 5

Last updated on: May 30, 2023 at 8:30 am By Ted Peters

Last updated on: July 17, 2023 at 3:36 pm By Ted Peters
