Since everyone is geeking out on Darryl's synopsis, here's another one.

Law professor David Clements lays out why he think the election may have been stolen and why all efforts to examine the evidence have been stymied.

Cool shit.

Why's a lawyer so interested in math? You've posted videos before, is it just a hobby of yours?

Here's a nifty one.

Here's a geeky, (but good) math song.

I've been a 3blue1brown fan for a while.

Collatz is a good one, that's a cool video you posted on it up there. It reminds me of Godel. I don't know if your are a Godel fan, but I just got the new biography on him last week. I'm about halfway through. It's great so far, nice quick history of Vienna and the empire of Franz Josef before the war.

Collatz also reminds me of Goldbach's conjecture. Both are infamous for driving many smart cookies sort of insane.

A cool little novel centered on Goldbach: https://www.amazon.com/Petros-Goldbachs ... 0571205119

The Lord of Spirits: https://www.ancientfaith.com/podcasts/lordofspirits

Some good Orthodox content. I don't like how much cover they run for OT jews, which have been shown to be consumate liars when compared to contemporary accounts that have been rediscovered, but it's still very cerebral and good Bible study. Would recommend even for someone not in to Christianity because of the philosophical content.

well He is called the God of the Hebrews, but that's the Greeks who called Him that

they were translating the gospels from Aramaic into Greek, so He was Hebrew to them

but I don't sense anything to do with that in the presence I feel, it feels much older than that

like the gravitational waves detected from before the Big Bang, older than the universe we inhabit

images of Christ have been found from Ancient Egypt which predate the Jews migrating to Canaan

the events in the gospels have probably gone done in many ways, many times, in many forms

the Hebrews are not so important, this event happened in their society, as it likely did many times before

the key is that the Greeks recorded that, then passed it down to us

we have no contact with cavemen, all we have is what the Greeks recorded for us

when you say Orthodox, what that really means is Greek : Ἰησοῦς

the power is that when you hear this story, redemption, atonement, resurrection, another life

you know it's true, you don't think it, you feel it, that presence which is beyond you
