Cryonics is a huge scam!! by mār Enlil   Human cryopreservation, known as cryonics, is a process of preserving a person at extremely low temperatures in the hope that future scientific advances will make it possible to "revive" them.   Let’s not mince words: cryonics is a massive scam! It is a scientifically unverifiable promise sold as a service, even though no technology exists to "wake up" someone who has been frozen. It is based entirely on futuristic speculation. Cryonics promises, "We’ll bring you back to life once science has advanced in the future," yet there is no proof, no technique, no track record of success, and no guarantee. You pay to be frozen. Period.   Cryonics presents major problems. For one thing, cells burst as ice forms. The brain suffers irreversible damage. Synaptic structures—and thus memory and personality—are destroyed. We do not know how to "repair" a dead body, let alone a destroyed brain. We do not know how to ...

Is the universe a simulation? Scientifically debunked by mār Enlil   According to Nick Bostrom, our universe could be a highly advanced simulation created by a superior civilization. This simulation would replicate all the laws of physics and our history, and even consciousness might be nothing more than an emergent property of the program. Thus, if this were true, we would be unable to distinguish this simulated reality from “real” reality.   I know this is a topic that can cause anxiety for some people. Let me reassure you right away: this theory is refuted by modern physics. Fundamental laws show that our reality possesses properties that are impossible to replicate by a program, even an ultra-advanced one. The objections to the simulation theory are overwhelming and come from several fields. Let me explain everything.   If a simulation is perfect, no internal observation can prove whether we are being simulated or not. Therefore, the hypothesis becomes an idea that is...

The Origins of the Runes by mār Enlil   Runes, this Germanic alphabet, are at the center of many neo-pagan and esoteric fantasies. They are presented as a sacred, even magical, alphabet. However, this is not the case. This view stems more from modern fantasies than from historical facts. In this article, we will explore various explanations regarding the origin of the runes.   There is no settled mystery. Runes have been the subject of several hypotheses, but none is universally accepted, even though some hypotheses are more credible than others.   It should be noted that the oldest runic inscriptions date from the mid-2nd century. The name “rune” comes from a reconstructed Proto-Germanic form, *rūnō, which can be translated as “secret, mystery; secret conversation.”   Although often associated with Scandinavia, runic inscriptions are also found in Germany (especially in the southwest) and in England. Runes have also been found in Eastern Europe, but they are li...

The Origin, History, and Evolution of Hell by mār Enlil   The idea of hell does not come from Christianity, but from a little-known religion: Zoroastrianism, the monotheistic religion of pre-Islamic Persia. In fact, the very concept of hell does not exist in the Bible. If the term appears, it is a (deliberate?) translation error. The Hebrew concept of Sheol has no connection to the Christian/Zoroastrian concept of hell.   In this article, we will explore the origins of the concept of hell in Iran, as well as its adoption by post-exilic Jews (and, by extension, by Christians and, later, Muslims).   I would also like to point out that, contrary to popular belief, Zoroastrianism is not a dead religion. There are 40,000 Zoroastrians in Iran (official figure; unofficial sources cite higher numbers). In India, where Zoroastrians fled after the Islamic conquest of Iran, there are 61,000 Zoroastrians, known as Parsis, meaning “Persians” (2012 estimate). In Iraqi Ku...

Skyquake - Earthquakes from the Sky by mār Enlil   Have you heard of skyquakes? They are very loud booms coming from the sky, often compared to the sound of a trumpet, a loud bang, or a cannon shot. Sometimes, the sound causes buildings to shake. Cases have been reported all over the world: in the North Sea, the Ganges, Canada, Colombia, Japan, Finland, Vanuatu, Australia, Italy, Ireland, India, the Netherlands, Norway, Tierra del Fuego in Argentina, the United Kingdom, the United States, Mexico, Malaysia (particularly Ipoh), and Indonesia (particularly Jakarta and Java). And yes, the phenomenon is real and has been documented for over two centuries. The first documented case dates back to 1811 with the Seneca Guns in New York State.   Scientifically, there are several theories, although none of them can explain all the cases.   Supersonic booms (military aircraft)?   When an aircraft exceeds Mach 1, it generates a shock wave that is audible on the groun...

 Vedic Religion and Hinduism - The Differences by mār Enlil    Vedicism is very different from Hinduism. Many people believe that Vedicism is “just Hinduism.” In fact, Vedicism is even referred to as “ancient Hinduism.” This is completely false! Vedic religion is Indo-European in origin, stemming from the peoples of the Sintashta (2200–1750 BCE) and Andronovo (2000–1150 BCE) cultures in Central Asia, who conquered India; whereas Hinduism is primarily a local Indian religion, influenced by Vedic religion, yet distinct from it.   Vedic religion is based on the Vedas, written in Sanskrit—the oldest written Indo-European language—around 1500 BCE, and consisting of four texts: the Rigveda, the Samaveda, the Yajurveda, and the Atharvaveda. Hinduism emerged with the Upanishads and then evolved through yoga, bhakti, and the Puranas beginning around 500 BCE.   Vedic religion is a ritual-based faith centered on animal sacrifice, in which the gods are primari...

Bob Lazar, a pathological liar by mār Enlil   In May 1989, in an interview with KLAS-TV, Robert Scott Lazar, known as Bob Lazar, claimed to have worked on an ultra-secret U.S. government program between November 1988 and April 1989. According to him, he worked at the S-4 facility, a secret installation south of Area 51, on the reverse-engineering of propulsion systems from non-human vehicles.   His main claims are: • There are nine extraterrestrial spacecraft stored in hangars built into the mountain. • He mainly worked on a saucer-shaped craft called the “Sport Model.” • These craft are powered by Element 115, which has anti-gravity properties. • The U.S. government is in contact with extraterrestrial civilizations.   Why this story is highly doubtful?   A non-existent academic background Lazar claims to hold a master’s degree in physics from MIT and a master’s degree in electronics from Caltech. However, his name does not appear in the r...

The Travis Walton Case by mār Enlil   When we talk about very controversial subjects, such as alien abductions — called abductions  — we must remember this maxim: “an extraordinary claim requires extraordinary evidence.”   Travis Walton’s abduction is often presented as one of the most credible cases by ufologists.   I want to make it clear that I am not against the existence of other forms of intelligent life in the universe. But claiming that life could potentially exist elsewhere, and claiming that extraterrestrials come to Earth to kidnap people, is a very big leap.   Well, I’m too lazy to write a summary, so here is the one from Wikipedia :   On November 5, 1975, crew chief Michael H. Rogers reported Travis Walton missing to the Navajo County Sheriff. Six members of the crew claimed they were driving down a forest road when they saw a lit object above the ground near the roadway. They reported that Walton got out of the truck and ran toward...
