> I don’t do my own research so pls help me debunk this > I’m sure we would’ve found letters by some Jesuits where they just admit to faking history but since we don’t, all your Maxwell printed history books can still be relied upon. There is no conspiracy here! Muppets. image

Just continued reading Magliabechiano by Martino Martini from the 1600s and stumbled upon mentions of Nestorian Christians living in China (or Tartaria). It’s full of interesting little aspects. All sourced by mostly Society of Jesus (aka Jesuit) members preaching in the area, though. I was in the mood for this video about the dimensions of the Tower of Babel after finishing the chapter: Turns out, this video is sourced by Turris Babel, written by another Jesuit named Athanasius Kircher who… also was among the first to write about Chinese culture around the same time. Well, his calculations aren’t all that reliable and he thought that the Tower of Babel, as described by Nimrod, would be so big and heavy that it would’ve forced a tilt of the globe earth. He was also a proponent of germ theory and wearing masks during the plague. The illustrations are incredible: I suspect that the Tower of Babel never had any intentions of physically reaching “the heavens” - it was more likely built to open a portal there using fringe energy (probably in relation to ley line positioning and stuff like that). image

Reading old translated books again: > They [Chinese] also say that there is found there [in a region of Tartary] a fish-cow, whose size exceeds our cows, whose length is often no less than a pole, yet it has neither scales nor horns. > I would believe this to be the same fish which Father Cristóbal de Acuña describes at length in his description of the Amazon River, which he himself travelled through, published in Spanish at Madrid in 1641, and which he calls pece buei, that is, “ox-fish.” > There is also a kind of vulture among the Tartars, commonly called Haitezgcing. Although it is smaller in body than the others, it is so bold and spirited that it often attacks and captures wild geese. So many weird animals in our past.

Without being prompted, ChatGPT just recommended to check @Zapstore for naming conflicts of an app I’m building. image

Looking at a thunderstorm up close, it's raining, it's warm and lightning is beautiful at this distance.
