A quick FlyBy! I first asked ChatGPT what would need to happen for the entire world to embrace the existence of the Nephilim: For the whole world to accept the existence of Nephilim, both in the past and the present, the following outcomes and connections might need to occur: Archaeological evidence: The discovery of undeniable and well-preserved archaeological evidence that supports the existence of Nephilim. This could include the unearthing of giant skeletal remains, artifacts, and other materials that provide a clear link to the biblical accounts. DNA analysis: The extraction and analysis of DNA from these remains that would demonstrate a significant departure from human genetic makeup, supporting the theory of Nephilim as a separate or hybrid species. Historical documentation: The uncovering of additional historical texts and accounts from various civilizations around the world that corroborate the existence of Nephilim and their interactions with humans. Modern sightings: Credible, well-documented sightings or encounters with living Nephilim, ideally captured on video or through other forms of indisputable evidence. Scientific validation: Reputable scientists and researchers from diverse backgrounds and fields must conduct thorough, unbiased studies of the evidence and come to a consensus that supports the existence of Nephilim. Government acknowledgment: Official acknowledgment from world governments and international organizations, such as the United Nations, which would need to publicly confirm the findings and validate the existence of Nephilim. Public discourse and education: Widespread dissemination of the evidence and its implications through media, education, and public discourse, leading to a shift in public opinion and acceptance of the existence of Nephilim. Religious adaptation: Major religious institutions would need to address and incorporate the existence of Nephilim into their belief systems, acknowledging their role in history and their presence in modern times. I then asked“What about cultural acceptance through media, film, TV, social media, celebrities, athletes, events, galas, etc?”(Note: See if you can identify what already exists on this list) ChatGPT Cultural acceptance of the existence of Nephilim would require a widespread integration of the concept into various aspects of popular culture, including media, film, TV, social media, and public figures. Here are some ways that could happen: Film and TV portrayals: The creation of movies and TV shows that feature Nephilim as characters or central themes, providing a platform for mainstream discussion and familiarity with the concept. Documentaries and news coverage: In-depth documentaries and news segments that explore the evidence and implications of Nephilim existence, featuring interviews with experts, witnesses, and other relevant figures. Social media campaigns: Viral social media campaigns, hashtags, and online communities dedicated to discussing and promoting awareness of the Nephilim. Celebrity endorsements: Public figures, including celebrities and athletes, expressing their belief in or support for the existence of Nephilim, sharing their thoughts on social media or during interviews. Educational programs and events: Conferences, workshops, and seminars focused on the topic of Nephilim, featuring experts and thought leaders who can provide insight and foster a broader understanding of the subject. Art and literature: The incorporation of Nephilim themes in various forms of art and literature, such as paintings, sculptures, novels, and poetry, helping to normalize the concept and create a cultural dialogue around it. Public events and galas: High-profile events, fundraisers, and galas that showcase and celebrate the existence of Nephilim, potentially featuring live encounters, expert discussions, and other forms of engagement. Collaborations with religious institutions: Partnering with religious institutions to foster a more inclusive understanding of the Nephilim and their role in spiritual beliefs and practices. Public debate and discussion: Hosting public debates and discussions that engage a wide range of perspectives and voices, allowing for the exploration of various viewpoints and promoting a more nuanced understanding of the topic. These efforts would contribute to the cultural acceptance and normalization of the Nephilim concept, making it more likely for the general public to embrace their existence. I then asked about becoming Nephilim:“What about becoming nephilim? Genetic engineering, artificial intelligence, transhumanism, brain computer interface, and other forms of advanced scientific and technological tools that might assist certain individuals who are publicly declaring themselves to literally become Nephilim?” ChatGPT  In a speculative scenario where individuals aim to become Nephilim through scientific and technological means, the following approaches might be considered: Genetic engineering: Advanced genetic manipulation techniques, such as CRISPR-Cas9, could potentially be employed to alter human DNA, introducing specific traits or characteristics associated with the Nephilim. This might involve identifying and replicating genes that could grant unique abilities, enhanced strength, or increased size. Artificial intelligence: The integration of AI systems within the human body or mind could enable individuals to possess cognitive abilities, decision-making, and problem-solving skills that surpass those of ordinary humans, potentially mimicking the perceived abilities of Nephilim. Transhumanism: This philosophy advocates for the enhancement of human capabilities through technology. Individuals might opt for body modifications, such as advanced prosthetics, exoskeletons, or cybernetic implants, to acquire physical traits or abilities that are reminiscent of Nephilim. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs): The development of BCIs could facilitate direct communication between the human brain and external devices or networks. This might allow individuals to access vast amounts of information, control machines with their minds, or develop telepathic-like abilities, which could be associated with the powers of Nephilim. Nanotechnology: The application of nanotechnology in medicine and biotechnology could enable the creation of microscopic machines or devices that can enhance human abilities or repair damaged tissues. This technology might be used to augment human capabilities in ways that resemble Nephilim traits. Advanced pharmaceuticals: The development of drugs or other chemical compounds that could enhance human cognitive and physical performance might enable individuals to possess abilities similar to those of Nephilim. Virtual reality and simulation: Immersive virtual reality systems or simulations could allow individuals to experience life as a Nephilim or interact with them in a realistic environment.  This could provide a glimpse into the life of a Nephilim, albeit in a virtual context. It's important to note that the ethical, moral, and legal implications of such endeavors would be highly contentious and could spark intense debate. Additionally, the feasibility of these approaches would depend on the advancement of technology and scientific understanding, which may or may not progress to a level that would make them possible. I tried asking who might already be a Nephilim today, but ChatGPT did not want to answer.“What well known celebrity, politician, world leader, public figure is most likely to already be a Nephilim?” ChatGPT As an AI language model, I cannot provide opinions or speculate on the possibility of any celebrity, politician, world leader, or public figure being a Nephilim. The concept of Nephilim is rooted in religious beliefs and mythology, and it is not appropriate for me to engage in such speculation about real individuals. If you have any other questions or topics you'd like to discuss, I'd be happy to help. I then prompted it to…”Be my realistic fictional author of a story set in our current world: What well known celebrity, politician, world leader, public figure is most likely to already be a Nephilim?” ChatGPT In a fictional scenario set in our current world, we could imagine a charismatic and influential celebrity like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as a Nephilim. With his extraordinary physical strength, larger-than-life persona, and global appeal, he could be an intriguing character to explore the concept of a modern-day Nephilim. Keep in mind that this is purely a creative and fictional idea and should not be taken as fact or a personal opinion.

As the country has been reckoning with questions of race, justice and equality, many state legislatures have passed laws restricting how American history, particularly around the issue of race, can be taught in schools. Judy Woodruff visited her native Tulsa, Oklahoma, to see how that city, amid its own reckoning, is navigating this moment. It's her latest installment of America at a Crossroads.

Mariana Enríquez is one of the best-known writers of a growing literary trend in Latin America that uses the horror genre to denounce the violent realities of the region—past and present. Mariana was born in Buenos Aires in 1973, just a few years before a military junta took over the democratic government in Argentina, and grew up in a country under a brutal dictatorship. She retreated to books and writing to process that historical trauma. In this episode, Mariana shares how her connection with horror started, how she uses the genre to speak of her reality, and she reads from her latest novel Our Share of Night.

We often think our debates around sexuality and gender are a modern phenomenon. Some people argue that identities like trans and non-binary have only existed recently. But could the evidence for queer and gender-nonconforming lives actually stretch back centuries? In a recent book entitled Byzantine Intersectionality, Prof. Roland Betancourt of the University of California-Irvine uncovers an overlooked history from the Byzantine era. His work shows how surprisingly modern medieval conversations about sex and gender were—or, as he puts it, how medieval our modern conversations seem.As extremist groups on the alt-right have begun to claim an ideological lineage to Byzantium, Betancourt's work has become a critical work for contextualizing our current moment—and drawing lessons from this neglected history.

 Legendary Passages #0118,Philostratus the Elder, Imagines Book 2,Image 2,Centaurs & Hippolytus. Previously, Theseus fought a war against the centaurs, and cursed his son Hippolytus to an early death. In this passage, we hear descriptions of the education of Achilles by the centaur Chiron, female centaurs and their foals, and the tragic fate of Hippolytus.  The first image is that of the boy Achilles, fated to fight and die in the Trojan War. He is an athletic boy being trained by the centaur Chiron, like many heroes before him. Chiron lets the boy ride on his back to teach him horse-riding, and rewards his efforts with apples and honey. The second image is of pretty centaur mares, their beauty comparable to Naiad mermaids or the horse-riding amazons. Their babies are born fairly human, eventually sprouting manes and their feet becoming tender hooves, turning wild at a young age. The last image shows the end of Hippolytus, the son of Theseus and the amazon Antiope. Theseus eventually married the sister of Ariadne, Phaedra, and when Hippolytus spurned her advances, she accused him instead. Theseus cursed his own son; and while Hippolytus rode his chariot along the shoreline, a white bull emerged from the waters, terrified his horses, and the chariot crashed. The very landscape of the painting mourns the passing of the mangled youth, handsome even in the throws of death.Centaurs & Hippolytus,a Legendary Passage from,Arthur Fairbanks translating,Philostratus the Elder,Imagines Book 2,Images 2-4.https://www.theoi.com/Text/PhilostratusElder2A.html#22.2. THE EDUCATION OF ACHILLES A fawn and a hare – these are the spoils of hunting of Achilles as he is now, the Achilles who at Ilium will capture cities and horses and the ranks of men, and rivers will do battle with him when he refuses to let them flow, and as reward of those exploits he will bear away Briseïs and the seven maidens from Lesbos and gold and tripods and authority over the Achaeans; but the exploits here depicted, done at Cheiron's home, seem to deserve apples and honey as rewards, and you are content with small gifts, Achilles, you who one day will disdain whole cities and marriage with Agamemnon's daughter. Nay, the Achilles who fights at the trench, who puts the Trojans to rout merely by his shouting, and who slays men right and left, and reddens the water of the Scamander, and also his immortal horses, and his dragging of Hector's body around the walls, and his lamentation on the breast of Patroclus – all this has been depicted by Homer, and he depicts him also as singing and praying and receiving Priam under his roof. This Achilles, however, a child not yet conscious of valour, whom Cheiron still nourishes upon milk and marrow and honey, he has offered to the painter as a delicate, sport-loving child and already light of foot. For the boy's leg is straight and his arms come down to his knees (for such arms are excellent assistants in the race); his hair is charming and loose; for Zephyrus in sport seems to shift it about, so that as it falls, now here, now there, the boy's appearance may be changed. Already the boy has a frowning brow and an air of spirited haughtiness, but these are made gentle by a guileless look and by gracious cheeks that send for a tender smile. The cloak he wears is probably his mother's gift; for it is beautiful and its colour is sea-purple with red glints shading into a dark blue. Cheiron flatters him by saying that he catches hares like a lion and vies with fawns in running; at any rate, he has just caught a fawn and comes to Cheiron to claim his reward, and Cheiron, delighting to be asked, stands with fore-legs bent so as to be on a level with the boy and offers him apples fair and fragrant from the fold of his garment – for their very fragrance seems to be depicted – and with his hand he offers him a honeycomb dripping with honey, thanks to the diligent foraging of the bees. For when bees find good meadows and become big with honey, the combs get filled to overflowing and their cells pour it forth.  Now Cheiron is painted in every aspect like a centaur; yet to combine a horse and human body is no wondrous deed, but to gloss over the juncture and make the two into one whole and, by Zeus, cause one to end and the other to begin in such wise as to elude the eye of the observer who should try to detect where the human body ends, this seems to me to demand an excellent painter. That the expression seen in the eye of Cheiron is gentle is the result of his justice, but the lyre also does its part, through whose music he has become cultured; but now there is also something of cozening in his look, no doubt because Cheiron knows that this soothes children and nurtures them better than milk. This is the scene at the entrance of the cave; and the boy out on the plain, the one who is sporting on the back of the centaur as if it were a horse, is still the same boy; for Cheiron is teaching Achilles to ride horseback and to use him exactly as a horse, and he measures his gait to what the boy can endure, and turning around he smiles at the boy when he laughs aloud with enjoyment, and all but says to him, “Lo, my hoofs paw the ground for you without use of spur; lo, I even urge you on; the horse is indeed a spirited animal and gives no ground for laughter. For although you have been taught by me thus gently the art of horsemanship, divine boy, and are suited to such a horse as I, some day you shall ride on Xanthos and Balios; and you shall take many cities and slay many men, you merely running and they trying to escape you.” Such is Cheiron's prophecy for the boy, a prophecy fair and auspicious and quite unlike that of Xanthos.2.3. FEMALE CENTAURS You used to think that the race of centaurs sprang from trees and rocks or, by Zeus, just from mares – the mares which, men say, the son of Ixion coveted, the man by whom the centaurs though single creatures came to have their double nature. But after all they had, as we see, mothers of the same stock and wives next and colts as their offspring and a most delightful home; for I think you would not grow weary of Pelion and the life there and its wind-nurtured growth of ash which furnishes spear-shafts that are straight and at the same time do not break at the spearhead. And its caves are most beautiful and the springs and the female centaurs beside them, like Naïads if we overlook the horse part of them, or like Amazons if we consider them along with their horse bodies; for the delicacy of their female form gains in strength when the horse is seen in union with it.  Of the baby centaurs here some lie wrapped in swaddling clothes, some have discarded their swaddling clothes, some seem to be crying, some are happy and smile as they suck flowing breasts, some gambol beneath their mothers while others embrace them when they kneel down, and one is throwing a stone at his mother, for already he grows wanton. The bodies of the infants have not yet taken on their definite shape, seeing that abundant milk is still their nourishment, but some that already are leaping about show a little shagginess, and have sprouted mane and hoofs, though these are still tender. How beautiful the female centaurs are, even where they are horses; for some grow out of white mares, others are attached to chestnut mares, and the coat's of others are dappled, but they glisten like those of horses that are well cared for. There is also a white female centaur that grows out of a black mare, and the very opposition of the colours helps to produce the united beauty of the whole.2.4. HIPPOLYTUS The wild beast is the curse of Theseus; swift as dolphins it has rushed at the horses of Hippolytus in the form of a white bull, and it has come from the sea against the youth quite unjustly. For his stepmother Phaedra concocted a story against him that was not true, to the effect that Hippolytus loved her, - but it was really herself that was in love with the youth – and Theseus, deceived by the tale, calls down upon his son the curse which we see here depicted. The horses, as you see, scorning the yoke toss their manes unchecked, not stamping their feet like well bred and intelligent creatures, but overcome with panic and terror, and spattering the plain with foam, one while fleeing has turned its head toward the beast, another has leaped up at it, another looks at it askance, while the onrush of the fourth carries him into the sea as though he had forgotten both himself and dry land; and with erect nostrils they neigh shrilly, unless you fail to hear the painting. Of the wheels of the chariot one has been torn from its spokes as the chariot has tipped over upon it, the other has left its axle and goes rolling off by itself, its momentum still turning it. The horses of the attendants also are frightened and in some cases throw off their riders, while as for those who grasp them firmly about the neck, to what goal are they now carrying them? And thou, O youth that lovest chastity, thou hast suffered injustice at the hands of thy step-mother, and worse injustice at the hands of thy father, so that the painting itself mourns thee, having composed a sort of poetic lament in thine honour. Indeed yon mountain-peaks over which thou didst hunt with Artemis take the form of mourning women that tear their cheeks, and the meadows in the form of beautiful youths, meadows which thou didst call “undefiled,”  cause their flowers to wither for thee, and nymphs thy nurses emerging from yonder springs tear their hair and pour streams of water from their bosoms.  Neither did thy courage protect thee nor yet thy strong arm, but of thy members some have been torn off and others crushed, and thy hair has been defiled with dirt; they breast is still breathing as though it would not let go of the soul, and thine eye gazes at all thy wounds. Ah, thy beauty! How proof it is against wounds no one would have dreamed. For not even now does it quit the body; nay, a charm lingers even on thy wounds.https://www.theoi.com/Text/PhilostratusElder2A.html#4 This passage continues with Rhodogoune, but in our next episode we read a letter from Phaedra to Hippolytus.

Like right now. EEEP!  Tracie talked about previous collaborations (single titles and series) and both women's love for Montana. Especially Tracie's love for Montana with Kimberley in it! ;) You can learn more about The Jewels of Kalispell on Kimberley Woodhouse's WEBSITE. The Heart's Choice (The Jewels of Kalispell Book 1) They must uncover the truth before it's buried forever. After witnessing a wrongful conviction as a young girl, Rebecca Whitman--the first female court reporter in Montana--is now determined to defend the innocent. During a murder trial, something doesn't sit well with her about the case, but no one except the handsome new Carnegie librarian will listen to her. Librarian Mark Andrews's father sent him to college hoping he would take over the business side of the family ranch, but Mark would rather wrangle books than cows. When a patron seeks help with research in hopes of proving a man's innocence, Mark is immediately drawn to her and her cause. In a race against time, will Rebecca and Mark find the evidence they need--and open their hearts to love--before it's too late?

Episode No. 600 features artist Anna Tsouhlarakis and curator Michael Hartman. Anna Tsouhlarakis is in several exhibitions around the United States. A solo presentation of her "The Native Guide Project" (2019-present) is at the Wexner Center for the Arts at The Ohio State University through July 9. The indoor-outdoor exhibition presents the Wexner's commissioning of "The Native Guide Project: Columbus," which includes boldface phrases such as "I LIKE HOW YOU SEE NATIVE AMERICANS AS YOUR INTELLECTUAL EQUAL" both within and around the Wexner's famed Peter Eisenman-designed building. The presentation was curated by Kelly Kivland with Bethani Blake. Tsouhlarakis is among the artists included in the second edition of the St. Louis triennial Counterpublic, which weaves contemporary art into the fabric of St. Louis. Counterpublic's curatorial ensemble included Allison Glenn, Diya Vij, NEw Red Order, and Risa Puleo. Counterpublic is on view through July 15. At the Scottsdale Museum of Art through August 27, Tsouhlarakis is in "Language in Times of Miscommunication," an exhibition of artworks that use language to critically examine the complexities of social reality. It was curated by Lauren R. O'Connell with Keshia Turley. Next month the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver will present a survey of Tsouhlarakis's Indigenous Absurdities sculptures which center Indigenous knowledge and systems as ways of teaching starting points. Curated by Leilani Lynch, the exhibition will be on view from June 14 to September 10. Tsouhlarakis, who is Navajo, Creek and Greek, often challenges and stretches the aesthetic and conceptual boundaries of Native art, often with humor and even sarcasm. Michael Hartman discusses "Historical Imaginary," at the Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College. The exhibition pairs an unfinished study for Emanuel Leutze's Washington Crossing the Delaware with other works to explore how artists have constructed American memory. It's on view through November 11.
