Where did all the Open Minds Forum members go?

Fri Oct 19, 2012 12:29 pm by Admin

With Open Minds Forum restored now for almost half a year at it's new location with forumotion.com we can now turn to look at reaching out to OMF's original members who have not yet returned home. OMF's original membership was over 6,000 members strong, prior to the proboards suspension, according to the rolls of the time. We can probably safely assume that some of those accounts were unidentified socks. If we were to assume a reasonable guess of maybe as many as 30% possible sock accounts then that would leave potentially somewhere between 4800 to 4900 possible real members to locate. That is still a substantial number of people.

Who were all these people? Some were average individuals with common interests in ufology, exopolitics, globalism, corruption, earthchanges, science and technology, and a variety of other interests. Some just enjoyed being part of a vibrant and unusually interesting community. Others were representative of various insider groups participating in observation and outreach projects, while still others were bonafide intelligence community personnel. All with stake in the hunt for truth in one fashion or another. Some in support of truth, and communication. Others seeking real disclosure and forms of proof. And others highly skeptical of anything or limited subjects. The smallest division of membership being wholly anti-disclosure oriented.

So where did these members vanish to? They had many options. There are almost innumerable other forums out there on the topics of UFO's or Exopolitics, the Unexplained, and Conspiracy Theory. Did they disappear into the world-wide network of forum inhabitants? Did some go find new homes on chatrooms or individual blogs? Did they participate in ufo conventions or other public events and gatherings? How about those who represented groups in special access? Or IC and military observers? Those with academic affiliations? Where did they all go and what would be the best way to reach out and extend an invitation to return?

And what constitutes a situation deserving of their time and participation? Is the archive enough? How exactly do people within the paradigm most desire to define a community? Is it amenities, humanity or simply population size for exposure? Most of the special guests have been emailed and have expressed that population size for exposure is what most motivates them. But not all. Long-time member Dan Smith has other priorities and values motivating his participation. Should this open opportunities for unattached junior guests who have experience and dialog to contribute to the world? How best to make use of OMF's time, experience and resources?

Many skeptics would like to see the historical guardian of discourse opportunity to just up and disappear; go into permanent stasis. They think that not everyone has a right to speak about their experiences and if there is no proof involved then there can philosophically be no value to discourse. I personally would respectfully disagree with them. Discourse has always been the prelude to meaningful relationships and meaningful mutual relationships have always been the prelude to exchanges of proof. In a contentious social environment with regards to communication vs disclosure how do we best re-establish a haven for those preludes? Is it only the "if we build it they will come" answer? Well considering OMF has been largely fully functional over the last four or five months this line of reasoning is not necessarily true. So what would be the best way re-establish this? Your suggestions are sought. Please comment.

    First topic message reminder :

    (This topic is a continuation of Personalism 102).

    Why is there something rather than nothing?  

    Looking at it statistically, the likelihood of nothing is minuscule compared likelihood of anything.  

    However, from the perspective of modern cosmology, the Anthropic Principle tells that universes with observers are extremely rare.

    But, by whose say so, can an unobservable universe be said to exist?  

    A related question is what constitutes an observer?

    What if any role might sapience play in the act of observation?
    ………  


    But this first post is a header post…….. so I will continue in the following post…….

    Recall that it was three who sicced me onto John……. 16.  

    one and three do have the makings of a syzygy.

    two gets stuck trying to mediate.

    So, with the Anthropic Principle, it makes no sense to say the world is made out of atoms ⚛.

    But are you and Eric demanding that we all accept the absurdity of life?   

    That is the only alternative to supposing that we are characters in search of our author ✍.  

    One might also say that we are searching for love….. but, with science, we are searching in all the wrong 😑 places.  

    I don’t give up quite that easily.

    And here we are…….. on the edge of time and existence.  

    And then three shows up.  

    Was that an accident or a coincidence……. a mistake?  

    What are we to make of portals?

    Should we try to ignore them…….. like Eric?

    We are all born with a curiosity, are we not…….. and with an urge to find answers.  

    Are we here to deny our own natures……. our own essence?

    The answers, it turns out, are closer to us than our own faces.

    We are either nothing, as according to scientific materialism, or we are everything…….. we are the co-Creators of the world.

    When we wake up to this simple choice, we experience the MoAPS.

    This will be our global gestalt switch.

    Nothing in our history will compare.

    This is not rocket 🚀 science.

    The world is either made of persons or of atoms ⚛.

    But our self revealing God is also our self concealing God.

    Yes, we have the Katechon and the Eschaton.

    Aaron might wish to work on his arithmetic.

    Did u ever have a clue?

    Do people matter?  

    The Katechon holds firm into these Endtimes.  

    We need not doubt that ours is the best possible Katechon.

    Obtaining it from bit is the closest that mainstream physics comes to immaterialism……. actually, then, we're talking…. it from qbit.

    Understand that the minimal qbit includes an observer…… an observer with a cosmic connection.

    In other words, an observer capable of making sense of the world.  

    An observation makes no sense, otherwise.

    An observation leaves a cosmic record.

    The best possible world is the record of the sum total of all our observations.  

    Our observer bias looms large…… this being mainly our collective unconscious.  

    And do keep in mind that, ultimately, we are but one observer……. the I Am.  

    Each of us is but a chip off the cosmic block.

    We are in the process of waking up, and pulling ourselves together.  

    The Opening, in conjunction with the Disclosure, will figure mightily in this Denouement.

    So, how do we arrange for it from qbit?  

    The Fermi exclusion principle figures mightily.

    And mind you…….. the exclusion principle lies at the heart quantum relativistic field theory……. having to do with spin and statistics.

    Yes, the source of our solidity, the source of our metabolism lies in mathematical symmetry.

    See Wigner’s book….. Symmetry and Reflections……. having much to with imaginary numbers.  

    Keep in mind that the chick 🐣 is a quantum skeptic 🤨.  

    Besides solidity we also need mass…… for which you want to check out the Higgs mechanism for symmetry breaking.

    And what does the Higgs have to do with personhood?

    give dan an inch and he will try to take a mile

    best not to give

    better to take

    one wizens up

    one takes the bait until one does not

    the old myths and archetypes have deep roots

    the sword of awareness cuts through it all straight to the core

    it is a sword of action and courage

    courage to stand in the middle of this and speak with our heart

    our naked awareness shines brighter than any ancient myth or story

    alchemy is to face the grotesque and transmute it to gold

    the grotesque is that which limits and traps

    in the garden we are limitless and unbound

    shameless and free

    nothing can touch this kind of freedom

    no country

    no government

    no organization

    no institute

    no education system

    no media

    no science

    no religion

    no heaven

    no hell

    no god

    just the tao of life


    disclosure and the truth and aliens and second comings and ufos, etc

    all fools games

    they're trying to get somewhere with all that

    peculiar

    such a drag!

    Ok, Aaron,

    What do you believe about the world, and about your being here?

    Do you believe that life is an absurdity in a meaningless universe?  

    If not, what do you believe?  

    With Eric, his sources lean towards Buddhism.  

    What is your guess?
    ……………


    A crucial aspect of Creation entails our separation from God.

    But this separation is never complete.  

    God manifests particularly as that still small voice in our conscience.  

    And then who is God exactly?

    I suggest that God also manifests in the Alpha and Omega of our historical Narrative.

    If we imagine our Narrative as an ellipse, we may think of the foci being the Alpha and Omega…….. where ultimately Alpha = Omega.

    I’m also a trinitarian…….. where personhood comes to the fore.

    The jguy is the unique, historical incarnation.

    These are great questions

    I believe in the small world but not necessarily the best possible small world

    I am naturally more of an optimist than a pessimist but I won’t go as far as to proclaim this the BPW

    Best and worst go hand-in-hand

    What is a worst world but a best worlds job?

    What is a best world but a worst worlds teacher?

    As to why we are here?

    First off, nothing is the only think that can’t exist, So there is that

    As to if there a meaning or purpose to our being here?

    I do believe we make our own meaning

    For me it’s found in the ordinary and simple

    Just the experience of ordinary life

    We take it for granted but I like to imagine on our death bed, as our life flashes before our eyes, we will look back awestruck at the beauty of it all

    I also find meaning in relationships, the friends and family we find along the way

    Contact (Carl Sagan) wrote:
    See, in all our searching, the only thing we've found that makes the emptiness bearable, is each other.

    See I can be your huckleberry

    I can be your second coming

    Just calls for some good old fashioned optimism and personalism

    It’s not what you know but who ya know

    And I know the chicken and the goat and the foot and P

    I am also the egg man 🥚

    Aaron,

    Very good……. you’ve picked up more than you usually let on.  

    I suspect that the same is true for Eric……. he understands, though, that he’s got to be my primary resistance.  

    Your whole statement is rather good.

    If you get the idea of the small world, you’re more than halfway to the Omega.  

    You get several other points…… spot on.

    Yes, my main point is that any one of us could have been the Second Coming.  

    So far, chick 🐣 has been the firstest with the mostest.

    But I know full well that I’m definitely lacking in the personality department.  

    The jguy got that one nailed……. no competition!

    All that j2 needs is a modicum of optimism, and to be a bit of a radical with the Personalism……. the philosophers refer to this as adhering to strong……. or to ontological Personalism…….. not just to the epistemic variety.  

    Scientists put all their money 💰 on the absolute objectivity of atoms ⚛.  

    An ontological personalist puts her faith in the inter subjectivity of persons.  

    And, yes, I totally agree with you that it’s not what we know, but who we know…….. and we both know the Princess.  

    She is why the both of us are hanging out here, at OMF.  

    Without three, one would have barely gotten off the mark.  

    With three, I got to understand the personal entanglement of portals…… and that the Omega = the Opening.  

    With the jguy, I got to understand that his kingdom comes…… on Earth as it is in Heaven.  

    With two, I got a fox 🦊 hole buddy.  

    In rubbing shoulders with Wigner and Wheeler I got to understand the role of the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics…….. in our participatory…… best possible world……. even if it did come after the fact.  

    Yes, you understand that the Earth is meant to be our school of hard knocks…….. yes, the best possible hard knocks.  

    But, a school makes no sense, without a matriculation 🎓.  

    The Opening-Disclosure is already written in the stars ✨ to be our best possible Matriculation!  

    Then we are homeward bound…….. back to being one with the One.  

    And then we will come to know ourselves for the first time!

    This is not rocket science, now is it?

    If the two of us could get our story straight, I bet that we could make a significant impression on Eric…….. heck, we might even make a sufficient impression on PEP…….. unto the Day.

    Here I go again…….. whenever anyone gives me an inch…… chick 🐣 goes ahead and embraces the Cosmos…… the best possible Cosmos.  

    I was hoping that one, two and three might get their act together.  

    I can see, in retrospect, why that was not meant to be.  

    However, whenever A,E&D could get their act together……. there is no reason why it would not suffice to start turning our ship 🚢 around……. as we begin the journey back to the One - Source - Alpha/Omega.  

    Trust me, Aaron……. Eric is not as dumb as he often likes to act.

    And, yes, there is absolutely no need to rush.  

    We have all the time in the world…….. especially you, youngsters!

    Are there any questions or concerns?  
    ………..


    Could we have any qualms, doubts or fears?

    Even with only the two of you……. sort of in this vicinity…….. chick 🐣 is definitely seeing the light at the end of the tunnel…….. even if it is the onrushing…… best possible Eschaton!

    And why aren’t there any baby Eschatons……..?

    Because the Princess 👸 always pulls out in time!

    Am I right about that much, Aaron…….. if we’re still on the same planet…….?

    Yes, some of us do understand the Rare Earth Hypothesis……. very rare!

    But, hey, God had to put her eggs somewhere.

    Ours is the best possible basket 🧺.

    Especially if we’re watching it very carefully.

    But does a watched pot ever boil?

    No…… we just want to bring this one to the best possible simmer.

    How is our watching…… so far?

    Aaron,

    I think it’s fair to say that two and three are waiting until chick is able to acquire just a little bit of back up.

    When they do, they will gladly rejoin the gang.

    Don’t you think?

    It appears invulnerable only because so few of us are aware that it even exists.

    And them that knows ain’t talking

    well said

    As to how BBL/PEP and 3 will work out their respective roles, that remains to be seen

    I would not worry for a second about whether two and three know what they are doing.  

    They’re just waiting for the rest of us.
    ………..


    I think I might wish to make a rephrasing……

    I don’t think I know what I’m doing……. do any of us?

    Ours is not to reason why…….

    But we do attempt to make educated guesses.

    I would not suggest that any of us are exempt from such……. but we each bring different insights to the task.

    There is no devil to blame.

    We are all in this soup together.

    Yum!

    After today, you will never hear from me again.

    Women are going to spank the men losing their minds.

    Gonna be fun.

    I’m just having fun.

    Forget ya ever met me.

    I wish you guys full lives and good deaths.

    Straight on.

    I’m looking at the issues of emergentism…….

    Along these lines, many folks are skeptical of the unity of the sciences…… especially concerning any alleged physical fundamentalism or reductionism.

    This skepticism can apply to physics itself…… such as with quantum entanglement.

    That said your biggest problem is a Relatability issue and it's something you all have struggled with.

    This can be improved though, if You put in the effort.

    Yes, sports fans……. I do believe that things are about to get interesting.

    There will be Disclosure.

    And Elon M has nary a clue.

    Yes, Elon is a big boy in a small world.

    He just doesn’t realize how small the world is.

    Hmmm……..

    As I was in the process of saying, before you stepped on the post, with your inanity……..

    Elon is struggling with the Truth.  

    But I understood that the only way to the Truth was through the jguy.

    Now, in this modern day and age, the only way to the jguy is going to be through j2………… 🐣.  

    And the only way to j2 is going to be through the Princess.  

    But just don’t tell her……. yet.  

    Let it be a surprise 😮……..

    Let it be Our surprise.  

    The Princess just doesn’t quite understand Personalism…… not just yet.

    She may get to personhood through a barn owl that tried to fly through her window 🪟.  

    I wonder whooo sent the owl 🦉?  
    …………


    The real message in last night is that Secular Humanism was a false messiah.

    I mean…… it was fairly close……. but close doesn’t count…… in the BPW it’s got to be as close as possible!  

    Foot has said that Donald will do Disclosure.

    What do you think about that, []?
    Was this one our final election 🗳️?
    After all, it may take a little while to absorb the Truth.  

    Yes, []?

    Well yes! We will celebrate 🥳 🎉 🎊
    Golden Age of America and Portals

    The last I checked ✅, []...... the Truth is global.  

    Yes?  

    It might best be said that the Truth is cosmic.

    I don't think that Donald understands this.

    I'm quite sure that Elon doesn't.  

    Well better then Kamala and Biden

    []....... that's a rather low bar, don't we realize?  
    …………


    I’m reading the election roundup in the Times……

    I’m perusing Scenes From the Election…….

    The second picture in the series sums up the whole thing…….

    Three maga hats are in the photo……. besides the usual one…… the other two are not totally visible……

    But here’s my guess…….. Jesus…. Make my life great again.  

    This is why Kamala lost……. the Democrats let that one get right past them…… and they still have barely a clue.  

    Secular Humanism is dead 😵……. it was dead on arrival.  

    And just yesterday I discovered the way forward….

    The Unity of Science, in the SEP.

    When you read it, you realize that the proper title would be……

    The (dis-) Unity of Science???

    It was the Amish!

    Don’t ever underestimate the determination of the supremely stupid.

    Jesus isn’t the way, he never was, we are.

    And the Truth, the Sun is still shinin.

    Relatable U?

    It’s not for us to conform to the muppet.

    It is they who has to rise.

    What’s the difference between a cult and a religion?

    In a cult, the one or ones at the top know it’s bullshit.

    In a religion, the cult leaders are dead.

    The UFO Disclosure movement is a cult, maybe even a religion by now, it’s total bullshit, well, almost total.

    There is something to disclose, your ignorance.

    To any who would come this way and this far, don’t join, think for and know thyself.

    God damn it was fun joustin with ya all these years Dan.

    The other muppets could only watch.

    The dullards.

    Let’s hope some seeds fell on fertile ground.

    Peace bois.

    Gee, PEP,

    How many good byes do we have to say?

    I now have to go back and rewrite the last several lines of my above post…….. which disappear 🫥 whenever someone posts on top of me.
    …………


    But, yes, the Amish do have some of the Truth.  

    So do all of us, but we just haven’t figured out how to put it all together.  

    The reason for our myopia is that we are given what we need to know, when we need to know it.

    I’ve been following the bouncing ball ⚽ for the last ~78 years.
    ………


    Back to the disunity of science……..

    Scientists have been notoriously unable to connect the dots, try as they might, for the last half millennium.

    Yes, they’ve been trying to fit everything into the Procrustean bed 🛏️ of reductionism.

    The Quantum has partially come to the rescue 🛟.

    But what does the Quantum really know?  

    I’ve been staring into the quantum mirror for the last sixty years.

    And, guess what….. I begin to make out a humanoid reflection.  

    That, in and of itself, is pretty scary 😱.

    But it gets worse…… much worse.

    I’m seeing an old man……. I’m seeing j2.

    I’m seeing the spirit of the truth.

    Uh, oh……. better run for cover.  

    I think I’d better hide 🙈 behind somebody’s skirt.  

    I must be going crazy 🤪…… and she keeps throwing me under bus 🚌….. off the boat 🚤…… you name it!  

    So here I am, just minding my own business 🧑‍💼.

    In other words, the scientific-quantum dots are not lining up.

    They begin to form a circle Surprised: ….. around the observer problem.  

    The Anthropic Principle should have been the give away.

    My fellow scientists have been trying desperately to sweep 🧹 it under the rug…….. for the past…… say sixty years.  

    The mind-body problem is another big one……. and now the JWST is opening a real can of worms 🐛.

    And recall that three claims to have come a calling 📞 that night…… back 45 years ago.  

    Oh what a night………

    The circle Surprised: does seem almost 😅 unbroken.

    Any questions on what’s about to come down……. chick 🐣?  

    What’s the alternative?  

    I bet Elon is having thoughts.  

    The only problem is that his rockets 🚀 are pointing in the wrong direction.  

    Hey, Elon……..

    Ah, yes…… the disunity of science.  

    What a sight to behold.  

    Gosh…… if the atoms ⚛ aren’t holding things together, I sure wonder who is…..?

    Uh, oh……. my money is on the Princess.  

    I’ll tell this much…….. she’s sure holding the lid on…… which amounts to about the same thing!  

    Princess……. can’t we just set one of the doors 🚪 ajar?  

    And don’t worry…….. Skyzalimit will not let any of the baddies in.  

    And, yes, if only I had a lear…… I’d be on my way…….

    Portraits hung in empty halls
    Frameless heads on nameless walls
    With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

    Ok, sports fans, here’s a big clue…….

    It’s pessimistic induction, qv……

    I might be beginning to see how the circle might be unbroken.  

    PI is a little piece of a circle of ideas……. 💡 an arc.  

    Ok, ✅ it’s a multi dimensional sphere of ideas.

    I think so.

    It’s how knowledge works.  

    It’s also how evolution works.

    It’s how we get from Dreamtime to ‘real’ time.  

    Everything is self contained, so to speak.

    It’s about Entity Realism……. sort of.  

    It’s sort of like what AI is trying to do…….. but can’t.

    AI can find the ideas, but can’t connect them.  

    Only we can connect ideas.  

    It’s about the Seminal Word.

    And this is also how evolution actually works.

    It’s how teleology works.

    It’s how everything works.

    We just have to unfocus our eyes 👀 a bit….. to see the Big Picture……

    Yes, it’s the Big Picture World……. also known as the best possible world.  

    This is why Elon was doing his crazy 🤪 dance 🪩.

    Yes, it does kinda work like one of those reflecting globes……. except in reverse 🔄.  

    This is how we make the Young Earth look 👀 like an old Earth!  

    How the JWST is working……. in reverse.  

    This is how my goddaughter works.

    She sort of understands it.

    chick 🐣 sort of understands it.

    Ok ✅, this is OI……. optimistic induction…… or is it deduction?  

    This is why we’re here…… because the gang is all here.

    This is how the Kingdom is coming.  

    It comes from all directions 🧭 at once.  

    Surprise!! 😮

    This is how the little piece of God in each of us becomes the global dance 🪩…… Elon style.

    This is how Indra’s Necklace works.  

    This is how the Micro-Macro Cosm works

    It’s like push and pull……. push me….. pull you.  

    How did we manage to keep this under wraps…… for twelve millennia?

    Because we knew the ending, and then we just had to play it backwards…….. Sam….. maybe that’s why foot keeps wanting me to call Sam H.

    Look 👀, I can and will call everyone, I just need to know what to say.

    Hum a few notes, and we’ll all get the tune!!

    The Kingdom Come……. and none too soon….. and none too late.  

    This is what the internet 🛜 is for.

    This is what we’re for.  

    And the Santa Fe express always pulls out….. in the nick of time!!!

    😰 nick of time almost 😅

    Tell chick 🐣 that he’s wrong 😑!

    Yes, sports fans……. this is optimistic induction and deduction.

    Push me…… pull you.

    This is what the jguy was all about.

    This is what the Holy Ghost is all about……. finally.  

    What do we say……..

    Teach the world to sing in harmony……

    Something about Coca Cola…….

    I'd like to build a world a home
    And furnish it with love
    Grow apple trees and honey bees
    And snow white turtle doves
    I'd like to teach the world to sing
    In perfect harmony
    I'd like to hold it in my arms
    And keep it company
    I'd like to see the world for once
    All standing hand in hand
    And hear them echo through the hills
    For peace throughout the land
    That's a song I hear
    Sing it along
    Let the world sing today
    Over and over
    I'd like to teach the world to sing
    In perfect harmony
    La, la, la, la
    To, do, do, do, do, do
    La, la, la
    I'd like to build a world a home
    And furnish it with love
    Grow apple trees and honey bees
    And snow white turtle doves
    (That's a song I hear)
    I'd like to teach the world to sing
    In perfect harmony
    And I'd like to hold it in my arms
    And keep it company
    (That's the song I hear)
    I'd like to see the world for once
    All standing hand in hand
    And hear them echo through the hills
    For peace throughout the land
    (That's the song I hear)
    I'd like to teach the world to sing
    In perfect harmony (Sing it all over)
    I'd like to teach the world to sing
    In perfect harmony
    La, la, la, la
    To, do, do, do, do, do
    La, la, la
    I'd like to teach the world to sing
    …………


    We have pretty strong reasons to suspect that donny had inside information.

    It would seem that Elon had similar information.

    We can even suspect the source.

    But so what?

    It would mean that we are playing with short time.

    Are some of these players liable to be fooled?

    I’m in a very modest mood today……..

    I’m declaring this 🌎 🌍 to be my Kingdom.

    Heaven is taking care of itself…… well, I’ve laid down the law to the hangers on.  

    It’s about time.

    donny made me do it.

    donny’s looking for a direction.

    I’m happy 😊 to be the navigator.  

    And it is my compass 🧭.

    I’ve been reviewing Utsuro Bune.

    My only competitor tried to drop in on Japan.

    She failed.  

    Now she is here as my esteemed colleague and goddaughter.

    As for donny and elon………

    I don’t think you want to bring a gun to a knitting 🧶 circle Surprised:.  

    Yes, this is not a competition……. this is San Francisco……. so be sure to wear some flowers 🌸 in your hair.

    elon has on his clown clown suit…… not too shabby.

    So, what’s next?

    Just a little philosophy…… that’s all.

    And, hey, I sure do notice that my fellow philosophers are definitely getting into postmodernism……. especially in regards to the philosophy of science 🧪…….. good work, boys and girls!  

    And guess what……. this time we’re remembering to bring along our Metanarrative.  

    And guess again…….. this is not just any old metanarrative.  

    This is, sports ⚽ fans…… the best possible Metanarrative.

    It’s coming to us straight from Eternity!  

    Sorry, if that Introduction was a little rough.  

    We’ll get over it 😤……. we’ll even come to appreciate how gosh darn quaint it was!!!

    Any questions??

    Oh, yes, about elon’s rocket 🚀 ships……..

    We’ll definitely be keeping them on a short leash.

    Mars…….?  you might wish to set it aside……. unless you know something I don’t…….. hey, this is on the job training!!  

    And, by the way, elon, how are you liking it……. down here??

    Hey, I do like the suit…….. very cute 🥰.  

    But really, elon……. the sky was meant for decoration……. and a little bit of internet.
