superbly interesting observations.
since the thread spirals into a blackpill, let's see if we can shift it back to normal track
Separation of church and state is not possible. It just creates a selection pressure for religions to shed the spandrels named "church" and "god." And this is precisely what we see today -- a state religion with no church and no god

key words: "selection pressure".
we want a counter-pressure for balance.

We cannot escape religion and myth. All states are always theocracies, the only question is: whose gods? whose myths?

“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon." (new king james version)

In America we tried to create an explicitly agnostic state, but our founding fathers did not understand that religion is a living organism, and that all living things, like liquids, eventually taker the shape of their container
— Zero HP Lovecraft (@0x49fa98) December 31, 2019
what USA got right - righter than other countries anyway - was that to make mammon the official state 'religion'.
that's right, the humble and filthy greenback kept the actual, god-fearing religion away from the highest rungs of power.
rights are good. *entitlements* is where it went off the rails.
the feminists, the progressives, all the do-gooders propose ever more *entitlements* under the guise of "rights (to)".

There is not one religious tradition in USA, but two: the exoteric tradition is protestantism, and the esoteric one is humanism, the latter of which is the provenance of "freedom", "rights", "equality", etc.

more than that, Christianity was built for *hierarchical* society, with mostly localized tribes.
it still works fine for that - as witnessed outside of the metropolies. federalism, republicanism, #RespectYourElders, all great. liberal democracy, nope.
https://t.co/yaAK2baG8A
It\u2019s possible to run Christianity on an enlightenment stack, but it wasn't designed for it. Christianity was built to run on monarchy, because the relationship of a king to his subjects reflects the relationship of God to man
— Zero HP Lovecraft (@0x49fa98) December 31, 2019
federalism eff yeah. unironically what made the early USA work so well 👌
pluralism was made possible through *localism* rather than through state-enforced "tolerance and civil rights".

The USA civics patch allows multiple Christianities to run in one polity, but it introduces some critical security vulnerabilities and ultimately denatures that which it was meant to preserve
— Zero HP Lovecraft (@0x49fa98) December 31, 2019
"tolerance and civil rights" always runs afoul of inter-tribe conflicts. when two tribes point at each other "they are spoiling my life", the state is *forced* to choose one.
liberal democracy chooses the more reliable voter block, rather than the more moral tribe.
who gets to *deem* something "a religion" in the sense of 1A?
no seriously, who does? the SCOTUS might be able, but certainly would be *unwilling*.

It was only a matter of time before a someone developed a fork of protestant Christianity that could cross the church-state barrier. We call that fork \u201cprogress,\u201d and with a few tweaks to the phenotype it was able to capture the entire state

looping back, there is "a selection pressure" - ever increasing since *the mammon* have been knocked down as the ideal.
i unironically say, bring the dollar back as the focal point. restore chasing earthly gains as the official, state-sanctioned american dream.
"but mark", i hear you object, "wouldn't that be superbly corrupting?"
funny you should say so in between Trump's terms.
the first candidate that the establishment could *not* corrupt. the wealth makes him independent, and he is the candidate of the people.
excellent observations. creating culture has a lasting impact.

Progress replaces the church service with the protest rally, the return of Christ with the moral arc of history, total depravity with implicit bias, and the crucifixion with the Holocaust (six million times more powerful than the original!)

i would only add the *power* of having the women dress up. it's really important for core support.
bring back trad dress-ups.
not just the funny if a bit goofy ren fair, but more specifically the homemaker garb.
ah yes, the "civil righst" - along with "the great society" making the 3rd gutting of the republic.
the 2nd was Woodrow Wilson's stuff; pretty much all of it.
a lot to fix.

surprisingly enough: the freedom of association.

One way we can tell progressive politics is essentially religious is to note this curious formula: the personal is political. Progress is not content with the non-overlapping magisteria of church and state. It demands that all facets of life be subjected to its moral calculus

Tripundra Dhaaran - Paapa Vimukti
Our generations are fascinated about Tripundram being just a religious symbol. There are in depth meanings of such a Tilak on a Seeker's Forehead
The very first mistake is the way it is applied.
Tripund isn't applied with dry Bhasm, it should be made wet and then applied in a prescribed manner with proper use of fingers and direction of application. Bhasm is collected from various sources
The most important ones mentioned in upanishats are 1. Yagnya Kund Bhasm 2. Bhasm made from Cow's Dung alone. A special agnihotram was perform to save the Bhasma after that for Dhaarana. A major mantra while applying bhasm is Mrutyunjaya Mantra
Dwijas have a very long process of applying the Tripundram along with their Sandhyavandanam. For commoners there are some basic rules people have to follow while applying Bhasm
Bhasm Applied in Morning - Should be mixed with water and applied
Bhasm Applied during Afternoon - Should be mixed with Chandan and Applied
Bhasm Applied during and after Pradosh - Should be applied Dry as such

Tilak Dharan on forehead is having deep science than one can ever imagine. It is not just a symbol of Sanatan but also builds a lot of confidence of human actually. It is related to Tejas & Varchasv of a human. pic.twitter.com/vM46BqU3f7

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.
https://t.co/FBfXhUrH5d
Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.
...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.
Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.

A THREAD ON @SarangSood
Decoded his way of analysis/logics for everyone to easily understand.
Have covered:
1. Analysis of volatility, how to foresee/signs.
2. Workbook
3. When to sell options
4. Diff category of days
5. How movement of option prices tell us what will happen
1. Keeps following volatility super closely.
Makes 7-8 different strategies to give him a sense of what's going on.
Whichever gives highest profit he trades in.
2. Theta falls when market moves.
Falls where market is headed towards not on our original position.
3. If you're an options seller then sell only when volatility is dropping, there is a high probability of you making the right trade and getting profit as a result
He believes in a market operator, if market mover sells volatility Sarang Sir joins him.
4. Theta decay vs Fall in vega
Sell when Vega is falling rather than for theta decay. You won't be trapped and higher probability of making profit.

I am quite different from your style. I follow the market's volatility very closely. I have mock positions in 7-8 different strategies which allows me to stay connected. Whichever gives best profit is usually the one i trade in.

Anilji most of the time these days Theta only falls when market moves. So the Theta actually falls where market has moved to, not where our position was in the first place. By shifting we can come close to capturing the Theta fall but not always.

This week has been great so far. The main aim is to be in the right side of the volatility, rest the market will reward.

There is a difference between theta decay & fall in vega. Decay is certain but there is no guaranteed profit as delta moves can increase cost. Fall in vega on the other hand is backed by a powerful force that sells options and gives handsome returns. Our job is to identify them.
