Podcasts about Theory

In light of what the Epstein Files taught us about Bob Weir and Bohemian Grove, we ask the question: Is there any merit to the conspiracy theory regarding the Grateful Dead as a CIA psyop? What exactly was the band's relationship to the MK Ultra program and what's up with all those hippie pop stars with military and defense contractor parents? Plus, as always, your voicemails, texts, dms, emails and more.

The Epstein files are giving new life to the Pizzagate conspiracy theory. American political culture has long been built on conspiracy theorizing.

The Stanton “can't open a bag of chips” saga takes another turn as the conversation shifts from tennis elbow to a scarier possibility: could this be an arthritis-style issue that requires constant warming up just to function? The guys debate what it means for Stanton's season, why he's always the first one on the field, and whether the Yankees should treat him like an October-only investment. Then it turns into a baseball nerd fest in the best way: a caller dives into the strike zone math, and the show unpacks the ABS challenge system, why players want it in big moments, why umpires may want it even more, and how it could change in-game strategy. Is “best of both worlds” the right approach, or does full ABS feel inevitable? Plus, the quarterback conversation heats up. A Giants fan calls from Florida to question Jaxson Dart's durability, sparking a bigger debate about availability, concussions, wear-and-tear, and what young QBs need around them to survive in New York. Stanton's elbow, ABS chaos, and QB risk all in one stretch of radio.

In this episode, we examine the origins and claims of the so-called gap theory, which was developed to support an old earth perspective and the idea of evolution requiring millions or billions of years. Advocates argue that there is a gap between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis chapter 1:2, highlighting the phrase “and the earth was without form and void.” They suggest that God would not create the earth empty and uninhabitable, and therefore propose a previous world existing before the creation of Adam—an alleged sin-filled world ruled by Satan that God later destroyed, leaving the earth “without form and void.” However, when we look to the authority of Scripture, we find no evidence of a devil, sin, humanity, bloodshed, or death prior to the six literal days of creation. According to the biblical account, everything was created within those six days, encompassing the entirety of earth's history. Revelation 22:19 warns not to add to or take away from the Word of God. The discussion of a gap theory challenges Scripture and contradicts the plain meaning of the biblical text. Listen as Bill and Annette share ten Biblical points that clearly disprove the gap theory in this new podcast episode.

Moreland to explore the “last things” of systematic theology—angels, demons, the soul, death, and the doctrine of hell.J.P. begins with a striking personal testimony: multiple independent witnesses describing three angels surrounding him during ministry settings—years apart and unknown to each other. From there, the conversation moves into:Whether demons are fallen angels or the spirits of the NephilimWhy consciousness cannot be reduced to the brainThe immortality of the soul (and what “immortal” actually means)The traditional doctrine of hellAnnihilationism vs. eternal conscious separationWhy conditional immortality is gaining tractionThe relationship between the sanctity of life and eternal punishmentWhether modern reinterpretations are driven by discomfort rather than exegesisKen and J.P. argue that hell is not about divine cruelty but about human dignity, free will, and the seriousness of rejecting an infinite God. They also warn against reshaping theology simply because it makes us more comfortable.The episode closes with a pastoral appeal:“Flee from the wrath to come.”How to Engage with Orbis:- Check out Ken's book,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ On the Road with the Holy Spirit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: https://a.co/d/0OVIIA0- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Partner with Orbis Financially⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Give - Orbis Ministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- Download the app: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠App - Orbis Ministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-⁠⁠⁠⁠ Are you interested in learning about Holy Spirit-led ministry?

Motherhood comes with opinions — from family, friends, social media, and often the loudest critic of all… ourselves.In this episode, we explore The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins through the lens of motherhood, postpartum struggles, and the emotional work of becoming the moms we truly want to be. What happens when we stop trying to control how others perceive our parenting? What changes when we release the pressure to meet everyone else's expectations?We talk about people-pleasing, boundary guilt, healing after postpartum depression, and the freedom that comes when we allow others to misunderstand our choices — while choosing peace anyway.Because healing in motherhood isn't about doing more or trying harder.It's about letting go.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by judgment, exhausted from trying to be everything to everyone, or disconnected from the mom you thought you'd be… this conversation is for you.✨ Let them have opinions.✨ Let them not understand.✨ Let yourself heal.This episode is an invitation to release control, protect your mental health, and step into motherhood with more clarity, confidence, and compassion.

The crew is back with another hilarious round of Posted & Toasted, where old social media takes resurface to haunt the station's biggest personalities. From a controversial 2024 pitch to install snow machines in every NFL dome to a 14-year-old "shady" tweet about Chinese food, no one is safe from the archives including a scientific (and heated) debate over whether "big guys" actually feel the cold more than you think. The fun takes a professional turn as the guys break down the NFL Combine, specifically tackling the mystery of Carson Beck. Is the Miami standout a victim of bad timing, or does a lack of "clutch" moments make him a dangerous first-round gamble? Whether you're here for the draft analysis or the debate over the legality of snow blowing, this segment covers the full spectrum of sports and life.

A UFO so large it could not be transported. That was the claim made by investigative journalist Ross Coulthart in 2023. According to the story, a structure was built over the craft because it was simply too big to move, and the location was said to be outside of the United States.Since then, speculation has ranged from Pine Gap in Australia to secure facilities in Nevada and Europe. More recently, attention has focused on a specific site in South Korea.In this episode, Andy revisits the origins of the Too Big To Move claim and outlines the criteria such a site would need to meet, including long term security, government control, and the infrastructure to sustain secrecy.Researcher Ryan Purkey joins the show to examine the geography, tunnel systems, military presence, and scientific facilities that have brought renewed focus to the location near Anyang.Is this a credible investigative lead, or another case of speculation attaching itself to a secure installation? We break down what can be tested and what remains unverified.

I think that a lot of people argue about what emo is because they're trying to protect their own identity as part of it.   The Emo Social Club debuts on Idobi Radio! Brian and Lizzie discuss the Warped Tour 2026 lineup announcements and the reality of festival budgets. Brian argues that while fans want My Chemical Romance, the price tag might be impossible for the tour to sustain.   The Emo Social Club has officially moved to Idobi Radio! For our debut episode, we look at the only news that matters right now: The Warped Tour 2026 lineup announcements. Brian and Lizzie debate which heavy hitters are likely to take the main stage—from the return of Fall Out Boy to the potential for a Bring Me The Horizon headline slot. Brian argues that while fans want My Chemical Romance, the price tag might be impossible for the tour to sustain. Plus, we tackle the internet's favorite argument: Gatekeeping. We look back at being "called emo" in 2005 vs. 2026, and why the term "Midwest Emo" might just be a weather pattern rather than a genre. Whether you were in the pit in 2005 or discovered the scene on TikTok, this episode covers the past, present, and future of pop punk.   "I think that a lot of people argue about what emo is because they're trying to protect their own identity as part of it." "I think what happens in the Midwest is generally more influential on emo music than what happens on the coasts." "Realistically, I'm like, Warped Tour cannot afford My Chemical Romance.

What really goes through a referee's mind on game day?In this episode, we hit a lift while diving deep into the world of officiating — from getting screamed at by parents in the stands to making split-second calls under pressure. Our guest breaks down how he went from random viral content to building a platform that shows what refs actually experience on the field.We talk about the referee shortage, the mental side of making calls in real time, why everyone thinks they're an expert from the bleachers, and how stepping into uncomfortable situations builds confidence far beyond sports.It's part gym session, part life philosophy, and part behind-the-scenes look at a role nobody understands… but everyone has an opinion on.If you've ever yelled at a ref — this one's for you.-----00:00 - First Gym Experience and Dancing Concerns00:59 - Using the Ladder App for Workout Planning01:40 - Hyrox Competition Formats02:31 - Emerging Fitness Trend Compared to CrossFit03:19 - Challenges of CrossFit Variability03:52 - Workout App Features and Group Motivation04:35 - Founding Gyms and Personal Training History05:55 - Gym Locations and Facility Changes06:44 - Gym Membership Transitions07:05 - Personal Background and Workout Focus07:48 - Arm and Leg Focused Workouts09:14 - Goals, Diet, and 75 Hard Challenge10:07 - 75 Hard Modifications: Workout Planning & Equipment Safety15:02 - Personal Fitness Journey and Social Stories20:24 - Basketball and Dunking Attempts22:18 - Home Gym Setup: Warm-up, Design, and Renovation Plans25:33 - Workout Routine and Strength Challenges27:28 - Starting Content Creation Journey29:11 - Refereeing Basics and Rules32:38 - Advanced Referee Insights: Embracing Uncertainty and Fulfillment36:28 - Referee Compensation and Counting Sets37:31 - Challenges at the Youth Level: Parents and Coaches38:42 - Decision-Making, Judgment Calls, and Business Parallels40:44 - Opinions, Pleasing Everyone, and Public Arguments41:53 - Theory vs Practice: Limits of Reading Alone43:57 - Workout Routines and Set Counting45:30 - Launching a Podcast: Content Creation, Talent Recognition, and Social Media Insights48:44 - Personal Finances, Relationships, and Identity50:31 - Overcoming Fear and Building a Vision53:32 - Faith, Family, Purpose & Emotional Intelligence: A Life Philosophy58:35 - Life Perspective, Age, and Gratitude60:25 - Defining Happiness and Embracing Challenges62:39 - Ambitions, Private Jet Dream, and Meaningful Friendships64:22 - Authenticity, Social Media, and Helping Others65:46 - Personal Relationships and Life Journey67:03 - Creating Viral Content: My First Viral Moment and Refereeing Challenges69:44 - Wife's Filming Role and Managing Angles72:47 - Editing Challenges and Learning the Craft75:30 - Exploring Side Gigs and Business Opportunities78:06 - My Editing Journey: From Early Experiences to iPad Marketing79:51 - Career Background and Early Metrics80:38 - Gym Talk: Steroids and Reverse Curls83:40 - Push‑up Workout Session84:53 - Podcast Growth and Audience Impact87:08 - Taco Review Podcast – Part 189:03 - Taco Review Podcast – Part 290:41 - Podcast Overview: Concept, Creation Challenges, and Nutrition Advice93:10 - Hiring Editors and Client Expectations95:23 - Audience Targeting and Business Improvement97:37 - Growth Mindset and Right vs Wrong99:58 - Decision Making and Trust Building101:25 - Embracing Failure and Building Resilience in Business104:39 - Vision, Scaling, and Purpose Beyond Self106:13 - Values, Team Dynamics, and Performance Culture109:30 - Personal Motivation: Finding Your Why Through Family and Legacy115:00 - Relationship with Madison and College Hustle116:56 - Be the Differenc

In this week's episode of Faith for Normal People, Pete and Jared talk with theologian and ethicist Jared Stacy about the rise of conspiracy thinking, especially within American evangelicalism. Drawing on his research, Jared Stacy explains how conspiracy theories tap into fears of cultural decline, offer a sense of control, and become spiritually charged narratives about good and evil. He also explores opportunities for people to recognize these patterns and consider more grounded, truth-seeking ways of engaging faith and public life.

Most org design conversations get forced through a narrow funnel: prove the ROI, justify the spend, make the numbers work. But if work is something most people can't opt out of—and where we spend a huge chunk of our attention and waking lives—then “it pays off” feels like a painfully small standard. This week, Rodney and Sam explore the ethical case for organizational design. They move beyond spreadsheets and profit metrics to ask bigger questions about leadership, power, transparency, compensation, and the human impact of broken systems. What do organizations owe the people who work inside them? Is better workplace design a moral responsibility — not just a financial strategy? -------------------------------- Ready to change your organization? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Let's talk.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Mentioned references: r/antiwork Mihaly Csikzentmihalyi and Flow Target CEO comp package (note: New CEO's comp package is roughly $16m, vs over $70m for the prior CEO in 2020) triple bottom line John Rawls and A Theory of Justice 00:00 Check-In: What's your energy like right now? 04:04 Divorcing doing what's “good work” from ROI 08:16 A “good” experience is the exception rather than the rule 10:06 Protecting yourself isn't “selling out” 15:41 Spending our attention on worthy things 21:35 Leadership vs. worker power disparity is broken 27:31 Ethically designed companies never are publicly traded 31:07 Principles and values of ethical orgs 40:35 Joy at work shouldn't be nickled and dimed 44:35 Idea 1: Don't accept performative change initiatives 47:17 Idea 2: Audit your existing principles and values 48:35 Idea 3: Don't let leadership gaslight you into conforming 50:33 Wrap up: Leave us a review and share the show with a friend Sound engineering and design by Taylor Marvin of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Coupe Studios⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Send a textIn this week's episode we discussed Dietrich Bonhoeffer's provocative “Theory of Stupidity,” written during his resistance to the Nazi regime. Drawing from his letters and prison writings, Bonhoeffer argues that stupidity is more dangerous than evil, not a lack of intelligence, but a moral and social failure that spreads in times of power and propaganda. We unpack what he meant, why he believed stupidity thrives under authoritarianism, and how his insights remain strikingly relevant in today's polarized world.Our Links:Retrospect

In this episode, Ross Rosenberg sits down with licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Steven Ross for a deep and insightful conversation about Coherence Therapy and how childhood trauma shapes our beliefs, emotions, and adult relationships. Together, they explore how early attachment experiences create unconscious narratives that influence codependency, anger, shame, and attraction to narcissistic partners. Drawing from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, trauma-informed, and humanistic approaches, this interview sheds light on why our coping strategies once made sense—and how true healing comes from revisiting, understanding, and transforming the emotional learning of childhood.Dr Steven Ross's contact email: DrStevenRoss@comcast.net. Support the showABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author. He is also a global thought leader and clinical expert in codependency, trauma, pathological narcissism, narcissistic abuse, and addictions.Ross's pioneering contributions to codependency have provided sweeping theoretical and practical updates and developed a treatment program that permanently resolves the issue. Ross has been featured on national TV and radio and is a regular radio and podcast guest. In addition, he has traveled the world, giving his one-of-a-kind keynote presentations and educational workshops.

Dr. Martin Shaw on February 4, 2026 at the Lumen Christi Institute. In his newly published _Liturgies of the Wild_, acclaimed mythographer and storyteller Martin Shaw argues that we live in a myth-impoverished age and that such poverty has left us vulnerable to stories that may not wish us well. Drawing on the “ancient technologies” of myths and initiatory rites, Shaw provides a road to wholeness, maturity and connection. In this event for UChicago students, Dr. Shaw explores both the theory and practice of mythmaking. In the first section Shaw guides us through myth's relationship to initiation rites and oral storytelling, explaining these “ancient technologies.” In the second we tilt directly into the telling of an Irish fairy tale, The Birth of Ossian. Drawing on his experience as a professor and widely respected storyteller, Shaw locates us in the deeper dimensions of how a modern person approaches an ancient story.

Send us a messageIn a commentary written for “BornAgainChristians.org.” and entitled: “The Beast System Rising: Digital ID's and Global Control In Light of Bible Prophecy,” they offer critical insight to the highly charged prophetic hour in which we are living where they write:“We are living in the last days where Paul wrote in 2 Thessalonians 2:7: “The mystery of lawlessness is already at work.” This evil force, driven by Satan and his demonic forces, promotes rebellion against God's moral order that is influencing society through things like subtle pushes for systems that centralize power, monitor citizens, and erode God-given freedoms.Paul's words show this lawlessness was active even in the first century, and continues today. Yet, the Holy Spirit,, working through His true Church, is restraining its full power until the Rapture.One the Rapture takes place the Tribulation will begin, therefore, Salvation's cry has gone forth with “Love's Last Call” beckoning those who ears to hear – to hear – and to come while there is still time to do.  Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

One of the foundational arguments for the Pretribulational rapture is concerning the relationship between National Israel and the Church.

This prophecy is where we get the concept of a future 7-year period, in which the majority of the end times events … Continue reading "7 Pretrib Problems – The Church and Israel Problem – Ep 6"

I occasionally get comments from people that the Gnosticism I’m sharing with you here at Gnostic Insights is different than the Gnosticism they’re accustomed to or the Gnosticism they see elsewhere on the internet. And that is very true, and that is why the Substack is called the Gnostic Reformation. This Gnosticism that I’m sharing with you—yes, it comes out of my own personal gnosis. It is a compilation of both Valentinian Gnosticism, primarily from the Tripartite Tractate of the Nag Hammadi, but also I’ve combined it with my own Theory of Everything called A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything, the blog which has been up there at Blogspot for over 15 years by now. It is a true Theory of Everything that lets you examine any philosophical model or any social model or scientific model. A Simple Explanation blog It’s a way of examining model structures and how they fit together, particularly our universe and particularly psychology, sociology, and theology. So when I ran across the Nag Hammadi and began to study it many years later, I was able to interpret it through this lens of A Simple Explanation that I had already developed. For example, the Simple Golden Rule comes directly out of my model, and that is a reformulation of what all religions around the world talk about as an ethical model of behavior. The Simple Golden Rule And it’s this: It begins with the concept of units of consciousness—and I use the term units of consciousness because this applies not only to human beings, but to plants and animals and bacteria, cells in your body; in a way, it applies to the atoms and molecules and the elements as well–and in the Simple Explanation, I used to give them consciousness. But since coming to my gnosis, I believe that what the physical parts—the elemental parts—of our universe actually are, is the imitation of the way things go together in the Fullness. And it’s an imitation because it’s down here in this so-called material world. It’s the Demiurge’s best effort to reconstruct Paradise. So now I don’t think that the molecules and atoms and subatomic particles are actually conscious the way I used to. The consciousness resides in the Demiurge, and the Demiurge is controlling them because the Demiurge is the god of this universe, and he can control down to the smallest subatomic particle, all of the elemental parts of our universe. But when it comes up to the living parts of our universe, that is where the life, consciousness, love, wisdom, all of that comes in through the Father, through the Son, through the Aeons, through Logos, into our otherwise fallen and amnesiac universe. So the actual consciousness of the Aeons, and upstream from that, of course, the Son and the Father, that is where the consciousness comes into the living things in our universe. That’s what makes the difference between the hard and rocky places and the wet and meaty places, because there’s definitely a difference. Anyway, I was talking about the Simple Golden Rule, and that is where units of consciousness, so that could be anything from a cell in your body all the way up through all creatures, although, not the viruses—the viruses are not alive, they are molecular machines controlled by the Demiurge—but up through the bacteria, which are different than viruses, bacteria are little living creatures—on up through all the plants and the animals, and then into us. Those are the units of consciousness. I am a unit of consciousness. You are a unit of consciousness. We say units because consciousness actually is the ground state of our matrix. Consciousness is the mind of God, and we are units of that. So my Simple Golden Rule has always said, even before I came to the gnosis, the Simple Golden Rule says, Units of consciousness reach out to others like themselves at their own level of complexity. So cells reach out to other cells, people reach out to other people, etc. Units of consciousness reach out to others and hold hands to join together to build the next level up. They join on a project. So like your family, let’s say, the people in your family hold hands with one another and level up to the family structure. Each thing that is at the same level reaches up to the next level to build something together that none of them could do on their own. So if we take the cells in your body, your skin cells reach out to other skin cells and level up to the organ called skin. The other organs reach out in the same way. The heart cells reach out to other heart cells, make the heart. Lung cells reach out to other lung cells, make lungs, etc. And all of the organs reach out to each other to create an organism. Everything builds up in the same way at the molecular level. The Demiurge’s copy of this process is subatomic particles reaching out to other subatomic particles to make particles. Particles reach out to make atoms. Atoms reach out to make molecules. Molecules reach out to make elements. Elements reach out to make minerals. Minerals become the rocks and stones and the hard rocky places that we see. But it is not conscious, and that’s the difference, other than the nature of the consciousness of the Demiurge that controls it. Whereas each of the living parts of our universe, from the cells on up, is conscious, does have thoughts, is a direct part of the consciousness of God. That is different. You don’t see that in the Nag Hammadi. That’s because I have brought that part of it in from the Simple Explanation. I admit that my reading of the Nag Hammadi is filtered through my personal interpretive system, but that’s what we’re all called to do. You have your own personal interpretive systems, or it’s fine with me if you adapt mine. But you have to come to this understanding, this gnosis yourself. The bottom line of the gnosis, by the way, is this. It all boils down to one sentence: We come from above and we will return to above. That is the nugget of Gnosticism. All of the rest of it is explanations that people have offered of the system of how it goes together. How is it that we come from above? How is it that we return to above? And how do we interact with the above space, that is the pleroma of the Fullness of God, when we’re down here trapped in this material world? That was the query that actually kicked off most of my own personal gnosis, even before I read any of the Gnostic books. I used to wonder, as I played with my dogs down by the river and I stood barefoot in the mud of the river, how does the consciousness of God flow through me and the mud surrounding the river make up my body and how do they connect? That’s the beginning of the Simple Explanation. So I’ve been doing some research in this time off I’ve had and I can answer exactly now in a philosophical way how it is that this Gnosticism that I am sharing with you differs from what people who consider themselves to be Gnostic teachers generally teach. Most Gnostics, by the way, are thinking of themselves as what are called Sethians. They believe that they are offspring from the prototypical human Seth and there’s a lot of mythology built around that system. The Nag Hammadi books are mostly Sethian. That’s why you have so much mythology in there. That’s why you have the names of angels and the counting of positions. You have the laying out of the hierarchy and all of these elect systems within it and how they have to be. But keep in mind, the people that wrote those books are really no different than I am or than you are. They’re people writing their interpretations of the system of how God can inhabit matter and where we are in that process and do we belong here or do we belong somewhere else. And if we belong somewhere else, how do we get out of here? That’s where such words as the trap come from—that this material world is a trap. Some Sethians go so far as to believe that the way teachers have shared with us to escape the trap is itself a trap. Have you heard this? “Don’t go into the light. The tunnel and the light, they’re just the trap.” That is someone’s interpretation of the system. That’s all that it is. You need to commune in silence with the Father yourself to discover what is true and what is not true. You can’t believe teachers, even Gnostic teachers, especially out there on the internet, who claim to have the truth and want to share it with you as if they were prophets. They are not prophets any more than I am a prophet. Everyone filters truth and reality through their own lens of discrimination. And your background, including your past lives and the memes that you bring forward into this life, all influence what you interpret of what you see going on around you, the words you use, the structures you use to make it make sense. What I am sharing with you here goes beyond the ancient Valentinian systems that we find in the Nag Hammadi. This Gnosticism that I’m sharing, this Simple Gnosticism, or Reformed Gnosticism that I’m teaching, fits into the space between Sethian and Valentinian systems. It’s a bridge cosmology. Neither tradition fully says this, but both hint at it. And what I’ve done is tease out the structural possibility that the ancient systems didn’t quite say out loud. And by the way, this is where my Simple Explanation model helped me do that. And here is the Simple model: What we call the Son is the primal emanation that is the direct image of the Father. The Christ is a later composite restorative agent formed through the cooperation of the Aeons, the Son, and the Logos. So, the Son and Christ are not exactly the same character as taught in Christianity. They are not interchangeable names. The Christ came after the Son. The Son is the direct emanation of the Father, and we use those gendered terms simply because that is the traditional way to say them. We could instead call the Father the ground state of consciousness, or the Great I Am, and its emanation, instead of calling it the Son, we could simply call it the First Emanation. The Son stays plugged into the Father. It doesn’t branch off and float downstream like a spore. It is not that. It stays plugged into the Father at all times. So, the Son and the Father are co-existent in their knowledge, and their wisdom, and their love. But the Son, or the offspring, is a monad, whereas the Father is infinite and illimitable, uncontainable. That’s why we say it’s the ground state. It’s a force, a power. It’s not a person. Oh, that might upset the Christians there. But the Father only relates to the Son. The Son is the first person, and in Valentinian Gnosticism, the Son is often called, then, the Father, our Father. Our Father, who art in heaven, is actually the Son, because He is our Father, and we all emanate out of the Son directly. This is not an insult to the Great Father, the Great I Am. The Son was emanated for this purpose. So, it is a fulfillment of the Son’s role to say He is our Father of consciousness and love. He is the one we can relate to, whereas the Father is so illimitable, is so infinite and magnificent and great, we cannot wrap our heads around it. The Son represents everything that the Father is. Now, in Sethian Gnosticism, they call that first emanation Barbelo. Rather than the Son, they call it Barbelo. That’s its name. What they call the Son is the second emanation out of Barbelo. So, the Barbelo is the female figure, the mother, the womb, and the Son comes from Barbelo. The Son, in Sethianism, is also called Autogenes, genes, like our genetics. It’s the same root word. And then the Christ, in Sethianism, is a further emanation who brings restoration and reveals truth to us. That is Sethianism. Now, as I said, in Valentinian Gnosticism, the Son, also known as Nous, is the first emanation from the Father. And the Christ is a later figure who descends to heal the pleroma after Logos’s fall and deficiency. Most Valentinians and Valentinian books say that the Aeon who fell from the pleroma and created our material existence is called Sophia, and it’s a female figure. I don’t like that because it’s a mythological upstream version of Adam and Eve. Let’s blame the woman. Let’s say females are inferior. We don’t need to go there because it turns out that one of the most mysterious books, as they say, in the Nag Hammadi, names the Fallen Aeon Logos. And Logos is not a female, and Logos doesn't have a child named Yaldabaoth. When Logos falls out of the pleroma of the Fullness of God, he cracks open. He breaks. He is rent in two. And a shadow version of him spills out all over, like guts on the ground. That is not a child. That is a shadow of Logos. And we call that shadow, you got it, the Demiurge. And in the Tripartite Tractate, Logos looked around at the results of the Fall with horror. Horror! And he tried to get it all back together, like grabbing his guts and sticking them back in his abdomen kind of thing. He couldn’t do it. He couldn’t grab it all together. And it spread out and would not listen to him. And it was disruptive and a disturbance and chaotic. So he abandoned the results of the Fall down below and hightailed it back up to the pleroma, to his “brothers”—the other Aeons in the pleroma—that we also call the Fullness of God. But Logos has never been fully cut off from the shadow down here, from what we call the Demiurge. And it is the knowledge that came from Logos that informed the Demiurge how to put the chaos in order. The Demiurge was left down here as part of the chaos, but it got itself together. It reconnected its mind with the mind of Logos, but it didn’t realize that. The Demiurge is called the amnesiac god, the god who does not remember, is because the Demiurge doesn’t remember that it came from the Father and that it will return to the Father. The Demiurge does not realize that it is part of Logos. And I have identified that part as the ego of Logos. The Tripartite Tractate says that the best part of Logos returned to the Self, his big S Self, which, in the case of Logos, was a fractal amalgamation of all of the other Aeons of the Fullness of God. What the Demiurge is, is the presenting face, the presenting part of Logos. He doesn’t remember Logos. He doesn’t know his true Self. He doesn’t remember the Father, or the Son, or the pleroma, or the Aeons. He doesn’t remember any of that. He woke up down here amidst chaos, separated from the Fullness of God, and surrounded by chaotic quantum foam, is my interpretation of this. And with the way that Logos knows how to order things, the Demiurge set about ordering the chaos of the Fall. And he was able to build it up through the particles, the atoms, the molecules, the elements, the minerals, up to the mud. But he couldn’t get any life into it. He couldn’t get his little mud figures to come to life. The Demiurge cannot bring life and consciousness to the mud. [illustration from Children of the Fullness: A Gnostic Myth] He had the pattern, he had the blueprint, but he didn’t contain the life. And consciousness is life. Consciousness is love. The nature of the Father above, the nature of the pleroma, is love, consciousness, and life. And it’s all good. It’s all good. We’re going to pick this up next week, because I’m on a roll now. We’ll probably be following this train of thought for the next two, three weeks. So welcome to the Gnostic Reformation, where we’re going to infuse Gnosticism with love, consciousness, and life. God bless us all, and onward and upward. Buy now at amazon.com

The Nancy Guthrie investigation just revealed something the headlines buried. The DNA from a glove found two miles from her home does not match the DNA recovered inside her property. That's two different people. The glove that dominated this week's coverage may have zero connection to this crime.The property DNA is the real story. Partial and possibly mixed, it's now in the forensic investigative genetic genealogy pipeline — the same process that ended the Golden State Killer manhunt and identified the Idaho college murders suspect. Parabon NanoLabs' CeCe Moore says she's extremely hopeful and notes that the potential DNA mixture is actually more compelling because it's consistent with a violent encounter.On today's episode, we also dismantle the cartel theory that refuses to die on social media. Its foundation is simple geography — Tucson sits sixty miles from Mexico. That's it. Law enforcement sources told NewsNation the case shows no signs of cartel involvement. Former FBI agents see no operational indicators of organized crime. The suspect on camera is alone, on foot, dressed head to toe in Walmart gear, carrying a cheap backpack, and failed to disable a doorbell camera. Nineteen days later, no one has made direct contact with the family or delivered proof of life. Cartels don't operate this way.The genetic genealogy clock is now ticking. When it delivers a result, the cartel theory either gets its first piece of supporting evidence or it dies on the data. Right now, the data says amateur. The data says local. The data says alone.#NancyGuthrie #TrueCrimeToday #GuthrieCase #GeneticGenealogy #CartelTheory #SavannahGuthrie #NancyGuthrieDNA #TucsonKidnapping #ForensicGenealogy #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Everyone is talking about the wrong DNA and the wrong theory. The glove found two miles from Nancy Guthrie's home dominated headlines this week when CODIS returned no match. But that glove DNA doesn't match the DNA found inside her property. Two profiles. Two people. The glove may be completely unconnected to this crime.The DNA that matters came from inside Nancy's home. It doesn't belong to her or anyone close to her. Investigators believe it may belong to the suspect, and it's now going to forensic investigative genetic genealogy — the process that cracked the Golden State Killer case and identified Bryan Kohberger. CeCe Moore of Parabon NanoLabs calls the evidence "extremely hopeful" and notes that the speed of identification could itself reveal whether this suspect is local or foreign.The cartel theory continues to flood social media based on one fact: Tucson is sixty miles from Mexico. Law enforcement sources across the board have pushed back. Multiple sources told NewsNation the case shows no signs of cartel involvement. Former FBI agents see no reason a cartel would target Nancy Guthrie. The doorbell footage shows a lone amateur in Walmart gear who couldn't disable a camera. No vehicle. No team. No direct contact with the family in nineteen days. That's not how cartels operate.Tony Brueski separates the signal from the noise and explains why the property DNA — not the glove, not the ransom emails, not the Mexico headlines — is the only thing that moves this case forward.#NancyGuthrie #GuthrieCase #NancyGuthrieDNA #GeneticGenealogy #CartelTheory #SavannahGuthrie #TucsonKidnapping #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #ForensicGenealogyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
