I am currently in the process of testing my next hypothesis, which states that it is possible to reverse the aging process, or as I call it, this is an experimental verification of the ‘theology of resurrection'.
On July 7th, 2009, I announced this project on the page titled Biological Algorithms : An Experiment.
The first change that I noticed was the appearance of a peculiar thin line of pale healed normal looking skin had appeared that cut a straight line through the sun damaged skin on my nose. The sudden appearance of that straight line riveted my attention because you just do not see things like that happening.
My digital camera is not the best, and my problems are compounded by my attempts to frame and light an image without being able to look through the view finder. After taking dozens of images, I finally managed to get a few that do show what I mean, although the effect is so subtle that I find it necessary to point with arrows so that the viewer will not miss what I am talking about here.
In the darker image in the first row you can see that pale line crossing the right side of my nose (it is interrupted by a vein, giving it a dashed line appearance). In the second row, from a slightly different angle you can see the same effect, and then it is interrupted by a zit on the top of my nose. I had this same problem with my nose exploding and breaking out in zits the last time I conducted this experiment, and yesterday I was dabbing the skin on my nose with kleenex because it was leaking a transparent fluid of some sort. The picture on the bottom shows how the white line wraps around the top of my nose and then continues on past that interruption caused by the zit and on into the pinkish colored skin on the left side of my nose.
Update : July 31st, 2009
When I announced this project I said that I would be reporting back on my preliminary results ‘later this year'. I was thinking perhaps that I would report back sometime in November. I have grossly overestimated the time frame. Based on what I am seeing happening here, I am about to get a brand spanking new nose at a full speed trot.
In the first row in the image above you can see that nose the way it was when I halted my preliminary experiment over three and a half years ago. (Yes, I have been waiting for you people for three and a half years, because I wanted you to see what I was doing, and from the looks of things, if I was to wait for you people, I would be waiting until the day I dropped dead).
In the image in the first set of images, you can see how there was this purplish patch shaped like a triangle. Just last night I noticed for the first time (July 30th, 2009) that a ‘thumb shaped' patch of pale healed skin had pushed into that purple triangle, so that now it no longer looks like a triangle, but instead it now looks like a square.
In the second set of images you can also see that patch and the square from a slightly different camera angle.
When the purple skin disappears it is replaced by this pinkish looking skin. In the images on the bottom you can see how this pinkish looking skin is now being broken up by patches of pale healed skin. There are also two grey scale images that also show this patchy effect.
In the image above you can see that nose the way that it was when I halted my preliminary experiment three and half years ago, and that nose the way it looked earlier this week. You can also see in the bottom row of images how the purple area has shrunk down to the shape of a zig zag.
A New Theology
The appearance of this white line, which started all this happening, first caused me to rethink and reformulate my entire theological framework. I have imagined myself preaching ‘the gospel of the resurrection of the biological algorithm', and then I find myself thinking to myself that perhaps I might be able to get onboard perhaps a fraction of one percent of the population of the world. It would seem to me that very few people would be able to do something like this. Salvation, and therefore resurrection, would be reserved only for a chosen few, the faithful elite, the strong, while the weaker would be left behind.Now I know that I am not responsible for the appearance of this white line, because I have not yet started ‘pumping myself up' to get ready to go, because I have been locked into a demoralized cynical funk lately. Therefore I set a more realistic target of perhaps the middle of August at which time I would get things started.
Therefore I can see that an external force is at work here, working to lift me out of my demoralized funk by first creating this line of pale healed skin wrapped around my nose, followed by all these other changes that are taking place much faster than I had anticipated. This is theologically significant because it means that resurrection can occur my means of the intervention of an outside force.
The changes taking place in my personality have been very profound. For example, I find that for the first time in my life, I have discovered a brand new patience. Let us suppose that the Pope in Rome or all those other troublesome ministers, priests, and preachers continue to directly contradict everything I say. I no longer care, because we will be planting that Pope and those aging dying ministers six feet under. You see, given that the resurrection is brought about by an outside force, that means that only those whom God has truly chosen, will be saved. In the days to come, those who speak falsely in the name of God will be recognized for what they really are, while those whom God truly does love will also be recognized for who they are. The days are now gone when people could say ‘thus saith the Lord' when God has not spoken to them nor has God sent them. Everyone will know those whom God has chosen, because it will be obvious. Our God is not the God of the dead. Our God is the God of the living and not the dead, and religion only preaches the falsehood of ‘heaven' and ‘spirituality' as an attempt to make it appear that religion has not been rejected by God, but rather that dropping dead while flipping a nickel in a dark closet was somehow the divine plan of God. Religion is the denial of the exile, and so therefore religion is the denial of the living God, and in the place of the Living God religion brings us the dead god of the dead and the guessing game of salvation. All theology therefore is nothing more than the attempt to legitimize a failed, flawed godforsaken worldly institution, which is all that remains of God's plan once the marrow has been sucked right out its bones by godless faithless religion.
The theology of history's greatest theologians, those celebrated so called giants of religion, will be exposed as the blind myopic scribblings of those who did not know God, for the resurrection was always the plan of God's salvation, before God was so rudely interrupted yet one more time by more of that rotten know nothing ignorance of that dead faithless religion. In the days to come everyone will come to understand what this means if they cannot understand it right now.
"The Spirit of Yahweh GOD is upon me, because Yahweh has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of Yahweh's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; to give them a garland of roses instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of Yahweh in glory. They shall build up the ancient ruins, they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations ...
"I will greatly rejoice in Yahweh, my soul shall exult in my God; for I have been clothed with the garments of salvation, covered with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. For as the earth brings forth its shoots, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to spring up, so Yahweh GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations." (Isaiah Chapter 61)
"And upon every lofty mountain and every high hill there will be brooks running with water, in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall. Moreover the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day when YAHWEH binds up the hurt of the people, and heals the wounds inflicted by God's blow." (Isaiah Chapter 30)
