Brief recap

In the previous post, we analyzed then eliminated the religions that didn't reference any God. Again, I am not claiming that any religion is true or false, simply that it can or cannot be a communications from a judging and fair God. The religions that we eliminated in the last post cannot possibly be communications from a judging and fair God. How can they be when they don't reference any God or Gods?!
--
In this post, we will continue our analysis. This time, we will analyze many religions, starting with those that do not have any known founder or messenger. We have already seen that a judging and fair God would choose indirect communication through a human messenger over direct communication with everyone (*). This makes the religions that do not have a founder or messenger susceptible to elimination, but let's analyze them correctly still.
(*) Please don't challenge this again here, we have already talked about it in previous posts! I shared all the arguments I had. If you're still not convinced, I have no more arguments for you. That said, in this reality, no God is communicating directly. So you can either choose to conclude that a judging and fair God doesn't exist, or you can evaluate the indirect communication possibility, which you should, based on the drawbacks of direct communication.
Let's begin!
Last time, we were left with the following religions:

• Christianity (2.4B)
• Islam (2.0B)
• Hinduism (1.2B)
• Voodoo (60M)
• Sikhism (30M)
• Mormonism (16M)
• Judaism (14.5M)
• Spritism (5 to 15M)
• Korean Shamanism (5 to 15M)
• Caodaism (5 to 9M)
• Baha'i Faith (5 to 7.3M)
• Cheondoism (3 to 4M)
• Tenrikyo (2M)
• Tengrism (1.2M)
• Druze (1M)

The religions that do not have any known founder or messenger are: Hinduism, Voodoo and Tengrism.

Hinduism

Let's apply the message criteria to Hinduism to see what it passes and what it fails.

• Criterion 0 (God reference): PROBLEMATIC. While Hinduism does have many deities. The issue is that it's not a single religion, rather, it's an umbrella word that covers diverse beliefs that don’t agree on the Gods involved and their roles. It also encourages differences in belief, and clearly states that no one has a claim on the truth. Consequently, it cannot be a communication from a judging and fair God who must communicate in a clear unambiguous way since judgement is involved.
• Criterion 1 (Living religion ): PASS
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. It doesn’t warn of any judgment, so it is safe to dismiss.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. It’s not universal. It is mostly bound to India, as 95% of Hindus live there (1). The remaining 5% covers both immigration of Hindus, as well as actual conversions. Another issue is that it is not simple to understand. The reader is encouraged to go over to its dedicated page here on Britannica for example and attempt to understand the core beliefs. We saw that simplicity is one of the core foundations of universality.
• Criterion 4 (Past references): FAIL. It doesn’t reference previous religions. Rather, it claims to be eternal. However, it has considerably changed over time to the point that Gods lost influence, while others rose. How? Why? Who decides?
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. It doesn’t align with reality well. Depending on the branch of Hinduism one follows, the Gods are different, and have different roles. There is no way to tell which version is true, and they can’t all be true since they don’t agree, sometimes on the same Gods. How can various and distinct versions of a story all align with reality at the same time?

Sources:
(1) From WorldPopulationReview: ...Additionally, about 95% of the world's Hindus live in India. The majority of Hindus in India belong to the Shaivite and Vaishnavite denominations...

Voodoo

• Criterion 1 (Living religion ): PASS
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. Voodoo borrows concepts from multiple religions, including the God of the Bible, called Bondye (from French: “Bon Dieu”, literally “Good God”), who is viewed as the creator of everything, but one who doesn’t judge. In Voodoo, spirits (called Iwa) are to be served in exchange for protection, health and favor. It doesn’t speak of any judgment and is consequently safe to dismiss.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. It’s far from being universal, as it is geographically and ethnically bound.
• Criterion 4 (Past references): FAIL. It borrows concepts from many religions (1) , but it doesn’t reference any past religions that it might have taken over from.
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. It cannot align with reality well since it’s born from a mix of multiple different and incompatible worldviews. For example, the God of the Bible cannot possibly create spirits to be worshiped instead of himself. If he did, he wouldn’t be the God of the Bible. One might say, “well, the Bible is wrong about its own God, and Voodoo corrects that mistake”. Ok, fair enough! But why would it reference him as the God of the Bible then?! Voodoo borrows a popular God only to redefine him but doesn’t end up being more successful than the original and supposedly false definition.

Sources:
(1) From Wikipedia: ...It arose through a process of syncretism between several traditional religions of West and Central Africa and Roman Catholicism...

Tengrism

• Criterion 0 (God reference): FAIL. Tengrism does reference a God, the sky God Tengri, as the highest deity (it has other deities). However, it isn’t a deity in the sense of other religions. Rather, it’s an abstract phenomenon.
• Criterion 1 (Living religion): PASS
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. It doesn’t warn of any judgment, so it can be safely dismissed.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. It’s far from being universal and is geographically and ethnically bound.
• Criterion 4 (Past references): FAIL. It doesn’t reference any past religions it would have taken over from.
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. Like Shinto, it doesn’t align with reality well. Its cosmology aspects demonstrate a local understanding that is linked to Earth. For example, it defines Gods that are specific to local concepts, like wind, clouds, sun, moon, thunder… It’s one thing to state that a God created everything including these concepts, it’s a whole other to assign a God to each one of these concepts (1). Is the God of clouds for example responsible for clouds on any planet? Where was he when clouds didn’t exist anywhere yet?

Sources:
(1) From New World Encyclopedia: ...Tengri is the supreme god of Tengriism. In ancient Mongolian cosmology, the Sky-Father (Tengri/Tenger Etseg) and Mother Earth (Eje/Gazar Eej) were the central beings of a group of 99 deities. The ancient Turks believed that Tengri was the leader of the seventeen deities who ruled the universe: Tengri, Yer-Sub, Umai, Erlik, Earth, Water, Fire, Sun, Moon, Star, Air, Clouds, Wind, Storm, Thunder and Lightning, and Rain and Rainbow...
--
This eliminates 3 more religions leaving us with the remaining religions that both reference a deity or deities, as well as have a known founder:

• Christianity (2.4B) x
• Islam (2.0B) x
• Hinduism (1.2B)
• Voodoo (60M)
• Sikhism (30M)
• Mormonism (16M) x
• Judaism (14.5M) x
• Spritism (5 to 15M)
• Korean Shamanism (5 to 15M)
• Caodaism (5 to 9M)
• Baha'i Faith (5 to 7.3M) x
• Cheondoism (3 to 4M)
• Tenrikyo (2M)
• Tengrism (1.2M)
• Druze (1M) x

6 of the remaining religions above (the ones with an "x") reference the same God, the God of Abraham. Being related, we will analyze them together last. Let's move on with the others.

Sikhism

Let's analyze the message of Sikhism.

• Criterion 1 (Living religion): PASS
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. Sikhism doesn’t warn of any judgment, consequently it can be safely dismissed. This also means that the God of Sikhism cannot be the judging and fair God we are looking for.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. Sikhism is far from being universal. 90% of Sikhs are in India where it first appeared. The next four major communities of Sikhs are located in Canada, the U.K, the U.S and Australia (1). All of which are popular destinations for Indian immigration, suggesting that Sikhism is heavily bound by ethnicity, on top of being bound by geography.
• Criterion 4 (Past reference): FAIL. Sikhism doesn’t explicitly reference any previous religions from which it has taken over. What about the people who died before Guru Nanak was even born? Did the One God of Sikhism not communicate with them? This questions the fairness of the God of Sikhism.
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. There are two elements that seem disconnected from reality when it comes to Sikhism: First, if it started with Guru Nanak, what about the people who died long before him? The One God of Sikhism has always been there, so why wait until Guru Nanak to teach people the path of salvation? After Guru Nanak, there was a continuity of Gurus who supposedly helped show people the way. It all ended with the scripture being the last eternal Guru. This means that Sikhism covers the timeline from Guru Nanak onward. What about before? Second, it was born in a time of religious persecution. It takes elements from both Hinduism and Islam. It claims that the Gods of Hinduism, as well as the God of Islam, are references to the same One God (2). This essentially goes against the foundation of both Hinduism and Islam, which extend back in time before Sikhism was even born. If the One God sent Guru Nanak to correct both of these religions, it didn’t happen. So not only did the One God ignore people before Guru Nanak, he couldn’t or didn’t want to establish Sikhism as the correct worldview, leaving people at the mercy of supposedly wrong, but more universal worldviews. It doesn’t make sense.

Now let's analyze Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism.

• Criterion 1 (Impeccable social reputation): FAIL. Guru Nanak was born in 1469 in Northern India, and yet, there is very little information about him. It’s impossible to reasonably authenticate the man. When someone has a considerable impact on their time, they become a person of interest and a subject of scrutiny, which translates to many words spoken and written about them. We have more information on Buddha and Confucius, who were born a long time before Guru Nanak, than we have on him. The story of his life was written 50 to 80 years after his death by followers without any regard to historical accuracy (3), Why? Why would a God choose a messenger who is unknown or difficult to authenticate?!
• Criterion 2 (Non-involvement rule): FAIL. He was raised a Hindu as part of the Sant tradition, which were known for their poetry and composed hymns about the divine. This makes him violate the non-involvement rule on two accounts: First, he founded a religion that had many similarities with a tradition of Hinduism that worships the God Vishnu (4). Second, he used his poetry skills to compose hymns that later became part of Sikhism scripture (5). Both of these are natural progressions.
• Criterion 3 (Sudden self-produced life direction change): FAIL. What little is known of his life doesn’t show any sudden change in his life direction after he was supposedly contacted by the One God. Again, why? Being contacted by some God is an exceptional event, why are there no known markers in the life of this man?
• Criterion 4 (Complete devotion): FAIL. There was no particular resistance to Sikhism to demonstrate any form of devotion.
• Criterion 5 (Wide reach of message): FAIL. Guru Nanak couldn’t widely spread Sikhism. It is still concentrated in the place of its inception and is relatively unknown.

It is extremely unlikely that Sikhism represents a communication from a judging and fair God. It actually says so itself.
Sources:
(1) According to Wikipedia
(2) From Wikipedia: ...The Sikh scriptures use Hindu terminology, with references to the Vedas, and the names of gods and goddesses in Hindu bhakti movement traditions, such as Vishnu, Shiva, Brahma, Parvati, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Rama, Krishna, but not to worship. It also refers to the spiritual concepts in Hinduism (Ishvara, Bhagavan, Brahman) and the concept of God in Islam (Allah) to assert that these are just "alternate names for the Almighty One"...
(3) From Britannica: ...Nanak’s authorship of these works is beyond doubt, and it is also certain that he visited pilgrimage sites throughout India. Beyond this very little is known. The story of his life has been the imagined product of the legendary janam-sakhis (“life stories”), which were composed between 50 and 80 years after the Guru’s death in 1539, though only a tiny fraction of the material found in them can be affirmed as factual...
(4) From Britannica: ...Sikhs claim that their tradition has always been separate from Hinduism. Nevertheless, many Western scholars argue that in its earliest stage Sikhism was a movement within the Hindu tradition; Nanak, they point out, was raised a Hindu and eventually belonged to the Sant tradition of northern India... Their tradition drew heavily on the Vaishnava bhakti (the devotional movement within the Hindu tradition that worships the god Vishnu), though there were important differences between the two.
(5) From Britannica: ...Nanak composed many hymns, which were collected in the Adi Granth by Guru Arjan, the fifth Sikh Guru, in 1604...

Caodaism

Let's analyze the message of Caodaism.

• Criterion 1 (Living religion): PASS
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. Caodaism doesn’t warn of any upcoming judgment, nor does it detail any conditions of success or failure. It is safe to dismiss.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. It is far from being universal. It was born in Vietnam, and it stayed in Vietnam. There are some communities in some countries, but they remain among the diaspora. Caodaism couldn’t spread and is bound by geography and ethnicity. If this was a communication from a judging and fair God, the least that can be said is that it wasn’t good communication.
• Criterion 4 (Past reference): FAIL. Caodaism doesn’t reference any past religions. Instead, it is a syncretic religion, which means that it mixes concepts from multiple religions to build a unique worldview. However, since it borrows concepts from religions that are not compatible with each other, it ends up at odds with those it borrows from. For example, Caodaism claims that God sent many prophets, including Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad and Victor Hugo (Yes, Victor Hugo!!), to name a few. Buddha doesn’t speak of any God nor any judgment, while Jesus and Muhammad do. Buddha speaks of reincarnation, while Jesus and Muhammad speak of an afterlife. Also, Victor Hugo never claimed to be a prophet (Vietnam was colonized by France!), neither did many people that Caodaism claims they were prophets.
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. As with all syncretic religions that borrow contradicting concepts, Caodaism doesn’t and cannot align with reality well. In addition, the fact that there were four prophets only made it worse, as they didn’t even agree amongst themselves. Sending four messengers at the same time is a recipe for disaster.

Caodaism has multiple prophets: Ngô Văn Chiêu, Phạm Công Tắc, Cao Quỳnh Cư and Cao Hoài Sang. They fail most criteria.

• Criterion 1 (Impeccable social reputation): FAIL. It’s surprising that there is very little information about the founders of Caodaism even though it was founded recently compared to most of the religions mentioned in this book. One of them died as late as 1971, and yet, very little information is available. Why? How can we authenticate these people? How can the people that will be born 100 years from now authenticate these people if there is so little info? You can check their respective pages, they’re nearly empty.
• Criterion 2 (Non-involvement rule): FAIL. They all violate the rule of non-involvement. There is very little info, but among the info that is available, it shows that they were involved with existing religious activity. The first founder was interested in Chinese folk religion and developed a fascination with Spiritism (1). The three other founders were actually trying to contact spiritual entities using table-tapping, so basically looking for revelation (2).
• Criterion 3 (Sudden self-produced life direction change): PASS. They seem to have genuinely believed they actually received revelation. Their lives seem to have changed drastically afterwards. That said, they were all looking for it!
• Criterion 4 (Complete devotion): FAIL. The first prophet of Caodaism, Ngô Văn Chiêu who supposedly received a revelation in 1921, fails the complete devotion criterion. He didn’t like the religion becoming mainstream in his city, so he left the movement and established an independent and more restricted branch (3). If this is a God communicating, the whole point is for the message to reach as many people as possible! As for the remaining prophets, their devotion wasn’t really tested.
• Criterion 5 (Wide reach of message): FAIL. The four prophets of Caodaism failed to spread their message and created division themselves.

It’s extremely unlikely that Caodaism is a true communication from a judging and fair God.
Sources:
(1) From Wikipedia: He was born in 1878 and raised by his aunt. He developed an interest in Chinese folk religion during this period. Later he served in the colonial bureaucracy and developed a fascination with spiritism.
(2) From Wikipedia: In 1925, Phạm Công Tắc and two colleagues (Cao Quynh Cu and Cao Hoai Sang) tried to contact spiritual entities. Using table-tapping, they supposedly got messages: from their deceased relatives first, then from Saints, and then from God.
(3) From Wikipedia: Ngô Văn Chiêu, who had never intended Cao Đài to become a mass organization, left the movement and eventually established in 1932 an independent, esoteric branch known as Chiếu Minh, headquartered in Vĩnh Long, which still exists and only admits a limited number of committed adepts

Spiritism

• Criterion 0 (God reference): FAIL. Spiritism does reference a God, but it sees him as a supreme intelligence and a first cause of everything. He’s not necessarily an active actor in existence and who would communicate.
• Criterion 1 (Living religion): PASS.
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. Spiritism doesn’t warn of any upcoming judgment, so it is safe to dismiss. It was also considered a science by its founder, although the mainstream scientific community didn’t agree.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. It is far from being universal. As a standalone religion, the number of its followers is rather small, and are mostly located in Brazil (1). As an “add-on” religion, for example to Catholicism, it has more sympathizers.
• Criterion 4 (Past reference): FAIL. It does reference other religions, but not as past instances of communications, no! Rather, since Spiritism is mostly a description of the world, it aligns itself with several figures, like Jesus, Paul the Apostle, Buddha and Ghandi, to whom it delegates its moral component. The problem is that it ends up referencing incompatible concepts. Jesus and Buddha might agree on many moral concepts, but they view the world in extremely different ways.
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. Nothing really keeps Spiritism from being a possibility. However, delegating its moral components to various people, like Jesus and Buddha, who viewed existence in extremely different ways, makes it impossible to be a coherent worldview.

Let's analyze Hippolyte Léon Denizard Rivail, the founder of Spiritism.

• Criterion 1 (Impeccable social reputation): PASS.
• Criterion 2 (Non-involvement rule): FAIL. Spiritism was founded by the French teacher, educator and translator Hippolyte Léon Denizard Rivail in the 1850s. It is the result of a study of mediumistic phenomena. Needless to say that he violates the non-involvement rule on multiple accounts. The religion isn’t a result of some God communicating, it is the product of the founder’s own search. Also, before he started his study, Rivali became interested in séances (attempts to communicate with spirits), which were a popular entertainment at the time (2).
• Criterion 3 (Sudden self-produced life direction change): FAIL. His life didn’t take any sudden drastic turn. He did a study which had some results, he incorporated said results into what he called Spiritism, then published a book.
• Criterion 4 (Complete devotion): FAIL. He doesn’t show any particularly strong devotion towards his findings. He viewed them as science that he tried to have recognized, but it wasn’t. He didn’t have to face danger or death for his “cause”.
• Criterion 5 (Wide reach of message): FAIL. He failed to spread Spiritism.

Spiritism is extremely unlikely to represent a communication from a judging and fair God. It implicitly says so itself.
Sources:
(1) From Wikipedia: ...The movement has become widely accepted in Brazil due to Chico Xavier's works. There, the number of self-identified Spiritists accounts for 3.8 million, according to the 2010 national census...
(2) From Wikipedia: ...Rivail was in his early 50s when he became interested in séances, which were a popular entertainment at the time. Strange phenomena attributed to the action of spirits were considered a novelty, featuring objects that moved or "tapped", purportedly under the control of 'spirits'...

Cheondoism

• Criterion 1 (Living religion): PASS.
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. It doesn’t warn of any upcoming judgment (1), it is consequently safe to dismiss.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. It is far from being universal and is bound to South Korea.
• Criterion 4 (Past reference): FAIL. It doesn’t reference any past religions, which makes its God unfair towards all the people who died before it came along.
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. It is syncretic religion that combines many different religions, including Buddhism, Confucianism, Korean shamanism, as well as Roman Catholicism, from which it borrows its monotheistic view (2). Again, like other Asian religions, it is combining incompatible concepts and attempting to make a unique worldview out of them.

Let's analyze the founder of Cheondoism.

• Criterion 1 (Impeccable social reputation): FAIL. There isn’t enough information on the social reputation of Ch’oe Che-u. Even less than Guru Nanak!
• Criterion 2 (Non-involvement rule): FAIL. He violates the non-involvement rule on many accounts. Before he made his claim to be contacted by the Lord of Heaven in 1860, he was involved in Buddhism quite extensively (3). He also felt motivated to counter Christianity that was gaining adoption quickly (4). The motive was already there, and he was working towards it long before the claim occurred.
• Criterion 3 (Sudden self-produced life direction change): FAIL. His life doesn’t show any abrupt change in direction that might be caused by the contact from a God. Rather, he was motivated in countering Christianity with a local religion that will supposedly make Korea stronger, and that’s what he sought to do.
• Criterion 4 (Complete devotion): PASS. He was arrested and executed in 1864. There is no better test of devotion than dying for one’s cause.
• Criterion 5 (Wide reach of message): FAIL. He failed to spread his message. He claims to have been sent by the Lord of Heaven to spread Cheodoism. He clearly stated that he was countering Christianity, which from his point of view, couldn’t be a true religion, and yet Christianity stands strong in Korea today, while Cheodoism doesn’t. What does this say about Cheodoism and its Lord of Heaven?

It’s extremely unlikely that Cheondoism is a true communication from a judging and fair God.
Sources:
(1) From Britannica: There is no concept of eternal reward in Ch’ŏndogyo, because its vision is limited to bringing righteousness and peace to the world.
(2) From Britannica: ...Korean religion that combines elements of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, shamanism, and Roman Catholicism...
(3) From Wikipedia: ...Although educated in Confucianism, he partook of Buddhist practices, rituals, and beliefs, including interacting with monks, visiting temples, and abstaining from meat. In 1856, he began a 49-day retreat in the Buddhist monastery of Naewon-sa, but had to leave on the 47th day to attend the funeral of his uncle. The next year he managed to complete the 49 days at Cheok-myeol Caves, but did not find the experience spiritually fulfilling.
(4) From Wikipedia: According to his own account, he was greatly concerned by the public disorder in Korea, the encroachments of Christianity, and the domination of East Asia by Western powers...

Tenrikyo

• Criterion 1 (Living religion): PASS.
• Criterion 2 (Warning of judgement): FAIL. Tenrikyo states that God isn’t here to judge humans, only to help them live a joyous life. This makes it safe to dismiss.
• Criterion 3 (Universality): FAIL. Why isn’t Tenrikyo universal? Why is it bound to Japan and Japanese people? Why couldn’t it spread outside of Japan since the concepts it preaches are universal?
• Criterion 4 (Past reference): FAIL. It doesn’t reference any past religions. Why hasn’t the God of Tenrikyo communicated before? Why wait until the 1860s to help humans lead joyous lives? Nakayama, the founder of Tenrikyo, doesn’t seem to explain why. What about all the people who died before Nakayama was even born? Didn’t they deserve to also know how to lead a joyous life? This questions the fairness of the God of Tenrikyo.
• Criterion 5 (Alignment with reality): FAIL. If the God of Tenrikyo wanted all humans to have a joyous life here on Earth, there are many things he could have done to make that happen: First, he would have made sure to constantly communicate with humans to show them the way. Instead, he waited until 1860 to do that. Why?!! Second, he let false messengers and prophets achieve a far wider reach of message than Nakayama, and let them spread different worldviews that sometimes caused conflict and wars. Three, he could have removed the elements that make our lives here less joyous, like illness, pain and aging, maybe even death.

Now, let's analyze Nakayama herself.

• Criterion 1 (Impeccable social reputation): PASS.
• Criterion 2 (Non-involvement rule): FAIL. She violates the rule of non-involvement on multiple accounts. First, she was heavily involved with Buddhism and even wanted to be a nun (1). She also received revelation while practicing a ritual of another religion (2), even though it was an event that clearly surprised and changed her. From her point of view, this really seemed like a real communication. However, that would mean that the God of Tenrikyo have chosen a ritual of an existing and supposedly false religion to reveal the true one?! The mere act of sending a messenger with a new religion while they were heavily involved with an existing and supposedly false one is suspicious, let alone do it while they were practicing a ritual of said false religion!!!
• Criterion 3 (Sudden self-produced life direction change): PASS. After the first revelation, Nakayama’s behavior changed. She locked herself in a storehouse for three years, gradually gave away all her possessions, then asked her husband to dismantle the house (3). This life direction change is self-produced. It wasn’t dictated by her environment.
• Criterion 4 (Complete devotion): PASS. Her devotion wasn’t tested to the maximum, which only happens under the threat to personal safety and death. However, the life of poverty she chose to lead after supposedly receiving the first revelation, shows that she was devoted to her mission. A pass is fair!
• Criterion 5 (Wide reach of message): FAIL. She failed to spread Tenrikyo to the world, even though it is supposedly destined for all humans, making it unlikely to be a communication from some God.

There is no doubt that Nakayama Miki was deeply changed by her experience, as her life considerably changed after. However, Tenrikyo cannot be a communication from a judging and fair God. It misses the mark on critical criteria, and it says it itself that God’s purpose isn’t to judge humans.
Sources:
(1) From Wikipedia: ...In her childhood, Miki became familiar enough with Buddhist prayer so that by the age of twelve or thirteen, she was able to recite from memory various sutras as well the hymns from the Jōdo Wasan... At that time, she expressed an interest in becoming a nun... but eventually she consented, on the condition that even when married she would be allowed to continue her Buddhist prayer...
(2) From Wikipedia: ...However, as the woman who regularly served as his medium, Soyo, was not available, he asked Miki to serve as medium instead. In the middle of the incantation, Tenrikyo's doctrine asserts that Miki had her first divine revelation...
(3) From Wikipedia: ...For the three years or so following the revelation, Miki secluded herself in a storehouse. In the 1840s, Miki gradually gave away her personal belongings and the possessions of the Nakayama family. Then Miki requested that her husband Zenbei dismantle the main house, starting with the roof tiles at the southeast corner followed by the tiles on the northeast corner and the gable walls...

It has been a long post! However, we have evaluated a bunch of religions and all that remains for analysis are the Abrahamic religions, specifically:

• Christianity (2.4B)
• Islam (2.0B)
• Mormonism (16M)
• Judaism (14.5M)
• Baha'i Faith (5 to 7.3M)
• Druze (1M)

Let's do that in the next post!
Note: What the hell happened in the 1800s? A lot of religions appeared near that time! If someone has an answer or a theory, please share in the comments. Thank you!

It’s impossible to think of 90’s pop culture without encountering the masterful work of comedian Phil Hartman. His shocking murder still seems unreal, even 25 years later. The immense body of work he left behind still has fans laughing and dearly missing the virtuosic performer.
Philip Edward “Phil” Hartman (September 24, 1948 ~ May 28, 1998; born Hartmann) was a Canadian American actor, comedian, screenwriter and graphic artist. Hartman joined the comedy group The Groundlings in 1975. Hartman co-wrote the screenplay for the film “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure” and made recurring appearances on Reubens’ show “Pee-wee's Playhouse.”
Hartman became famous in the late 1980s when he joined the sketch comedy show “Saturday Night Live.” He was given the moniker “The Glue” for his ability to hold the show together and help other cast members. In 1995, he starred as Bill McNeal in the NBC sitcom “NewsRadio.” He had frequent roles on “The Simpsons” as Lionel’s Hutz, Troy McClure, and others, and appeared in the films “Houseguest,” “Sgt. Bilko,” “Jingle All the Way” and “Small Soldiers.”
While he was sleeping in the early morning hours of May 28, 1998, Phil Hartman was shot three times and killed by his wife, Brynn (Omdahl) Hartman. The couple had an argument earlier. Brynn was taking Zoloft, had been drinking alcohol, and had recently used cocaine. For hours after shooting her husband and contacting friends and family saying “[she] killed Phil,” Brynn locked herself in her bedroom.
As the police raced toward the house, Brynn’s friends arrived on the scene. Friends and authorities worked to remove the Hartmans’ children Sean, 9, and Birgen, 6, from the house; Sean told them that the gunshots had sounded like a door being slammed over and over again.
The arrival of the LAPD heralded the beginning of the end. With the authorities closing in, Brynn locked herself in the bedroom, sat next to the husband she’d slain, and called her sister. When the cops banged on the door, Brynn hung up on her sister and took her own life.
Both Hartmans were cremated by Forest Lawn Memorial Park and Mortuary, Glendale, California, and their ashes were scattered over Santa Catalina Island's Emerald Bay.

This'll take some writin', so bear with me.
I was born in 1970, for context, in Washington, DC. My father was a rare book cataloger at the Library of Congress from before my birth, up through the late 90's.
I was in 3rd grade (or thereabouts, hard to be certain), at a Catholic school in DC. We had a period ('class') called free study, I recall it not being a regularly scheduled thing, but something which happened when a teacher got called away; point is, it was spent in the school library.
It was a good library! I read Ursula K. LeGuin, Asimov, some Heinlein, etc, there, as well as the regular juvenalia (Susan Cooper, Lloyd Alexander, etc).
So, I was there for a free study period. Needing something new to read, I wandered the shelves, and found a Del Rey softcover of HPL stories, including Colour out of Space, Shadow Over Innsmouth, and others. I fell in love with it, best thing since sliced bread.
Within a few weeks, I'd read everything I could get my hands on (I borrowed other books of HPL's from the MLK library; this was way pre helicopter parenting, a 9 or 10 year old could go across town solo by bus without fear). Mentioned a few times was 'The Necronomicon', by one Abdul Alhazred.
Well! I'm the son of a goddamn rare book cataloger at the goddamn Library of Congress! I can do things! (Anyone could; access was free and easy).
So, I walked there (specifically the Jefferson building), 9 blocks or so from my house, and wandered to a small reading room off of the main reading room. There, I used the brand-new COBRA computerized card catalog system to search for 'Necronomicon'. (They really had just instituted the computer system; the card catalog still existed alongside. It was just more convenient.)
Three hits.
1 - An actual (well, photo-facsimile) Egyptian Book of the Dead. Unrelated, skipped.
2 - An 'art portfolio' by one Hans Ruedi Giger - this intrigued me, and I asked a librarian to grab that for me - it arrived, and I loved it, and asked for a copy for Christmas... Which I recall getting. Thanks, mom & dad!
3 - A manuscript, estimated to date around 600 BC (... this was before 'BCE' became a thing), ascribed to author 'Abd Al Azrad'. Well well well.
So, I ask for that third item. About thirty minutes passes, librarian comes back; it's not in the stacks, and he had called up to the rare book room to see if it was in their possession - and it wasn't.
So I asked if there was anything else to be done - and lo, there was; to the physical card catalog we went, to check the card.
The card confirmed what the COBRA entry had listed. Nothing else of note...
Except.
It was either policy or custom at the LoC for catalogers to initial the corner of a card they'd made; I suppose for answerability (there's a better word that escapes me, apologies). And keep in mind, the card catalog date back quite some ways.
The initials on the corner of the card were 'CAS'.
So: my supposition is that Clark Ashton-Smith, contemporary and mentee of HPL, had, in homage, traveled to the LoC, and slipped into the card catalog a spurious card which made the mythology of the Necronomicon 'real' =)
Myster solved, nothing further to see there, I went home. I told my father about this, proud of my use of the COBRA system and the card catalog.
A few years later - in my late teens - I'm collecting Arkham House editions, have a full set of collected letters, etc, and think to ask my father about the fate of that card. He remembered it well - the next day, he'd pulled it from the catalog, and threw it in the trash.
Horrendous? Not from his point of view; an accurate catalog of the Library's contents is almost a religious thing for a librarian; the spurious card amounted to vandalism in his eyes. I couldn't blame him.
So, let's skip forward many years, to when I'm in my forties, he's in his 90's, and I recall the story to him; he remembered, and noted that, in hindsight, it should've been preserved as a piece of memorabilia associated with a renowned American author. C'est la vie.
This story is almost done, but not quite! Let's skip backwards, maybe 20 years.
I was in my early to mid 20's, working in a local hardware store, fresh out of the Navy. An elderly woman comes in, maybe to get some keys made, maybe something else, can't recall the reason. But as I'm assisting her, I think that she looks very familiar, but I can't place my finger on from where. So I ask.
"Pardon me, but I think we've met before. Would you know from where? I can't think of it."
"Well, possibly. Did you go to St. Peter's?"
I said I did, and she said she had been the librarian.
So I tell her how finding that copy of HPL short stories in her library had cemented a love of reading in me.
"Oh yes, I remember that book. When I found it on the shelves, I took it down. I didn't think children should be reading that."
Oh well.
(Pre-edit: this is my first time adding flair to anything, ever. I chose biographical, but it's more my biography than anything else. Story felt wrong, though I'm telling a story, since it's non-fiction. If the flair is wrong, o ye mods, please change it as you see fit, if that's a thing you do.)

YOU decide what events should change in the world of pop culture, be it real or ASB (future movie gets shown in the past, an actor does/doesn't die, alternate casting choices, unmade media possibly getting made, media is rewritten, a change in the box office or something new entirely)!
I document what happens in a current timeline of Earth!
We all have fun!

This causes a scandal that briefly kills her good reputation, and gets her blacklisted in Hollywood (for a while).

The film released in December 2010 (like in our world), to rave reviews, with critics calling it Brittany Murphy's finest appearance yet. Murphy would then take home the Best Actress Oscar as well as the Best Dramatic Performance in a Movie Golden Globe for her performance in the film in 2011. Murphy would then continue her acting career following a big career boost, as well as her singing/musical career at the same time. In fact, she releases a fairly successful debut album in March 2011 simply called "Brittany", to positive reviews. It would then become the best selling musical album of the year, even winning her a Grammy in 2012.

ok, so i posted here a few months ago after my aunt made some interesting findings, namely: my sister used to date our distant cousin lol here. but the crux of the matter here and maybe the reason why my aunt was so thoroughly investigating our family tree was that my grandma was adopted and we had no idea where she came from.
my grandma was adopted in denver (i think she was born in denver) by her parents and lived in la junta, CO most of her life before living for a while in colombia and then moving permanently to mexico city until she died in november 1998. her name before being adopted was mary smith, so it could've been jane doe for all we knew. her mom was registered as matilda smith and her dad as clarence smith, if i remember correctly. no further info and records were murky as hell, so it was very hard to pinpoint them precisely with what was available. she was adopted by the cunningham family from la junta, colorado and was renamed joan cunningham. my grandma was content with her adoptive family, was not interested in finding out who her biological family was, and that was that on that.
we had assumed — due to her location, historical migration patterns, and not knowing anything other than her previous generic name — that she was some sort of anglo/scots-irish/scottish/maybe also german mutt. my aunt took a DNA test on ancestry.com, and turns out my grandma was mostly finnish, some swedish/danish, and norwegian. this took us by surprise because it made no sense in terms of her location and where she was adopted. the plot thickened. so my aunt took it upon herself to investigate further. this test matched her with a bunch of people from minnesota and wisconsin, also finland, specifically lapland. this allowed her to check more documents and make more sense of them.
idk what she did, but she found my great grandmother's name and also her parents' name and birthplace. turns out my great grandma's name was matilda kerola, born in wisconsin from finnish parents, matti kerola and ana greta raatikka from lapland. they migrated to michigan and minnesota at around 1882, and that's all i know. we don't know anything about my grandma's dad, and we also don't know why my she was given up for adoption, but i trust this is a huge step towards knowing my great grandma's (including why and how she ended up in colorado and with child probably from another finnish/swedish-american from the midwest as well, as my grandma's ancestry follows a very, i'd say homogenous continuum which may narrow down the possibilities of finding my great grandfather considering there's not a bunch of finnish americans and they still kinda live in the same places) and general family story which is very exciting.

I've never posted on Reddit and I've made this account just to share what's happened. Everything is true but some details are intentionally vague so that I can remain anonymous.
Here's some background. I'm from a middle-class background in Western Europe. Dad is white, mum is Asian. I'm in mid-early twenties, my brother is about 2 years younger. My brother and I have always been very different, and have never been particularly close unfortunately. It feels like he was never mature for his age. I'm quite academic, and worked hard to study at one of the best universities in the world. Meanwhile, my brother barely passed the minimum requirements at school, and spent his last two years of school doing film studies. He preferred playing mobile games and playing with plastic swords, toy guns, etc. even into his late teens. Although we were only two years apart, it's always felt like we were on different planets, and we only diverged more as time passed.
My brother and mum were very close, although my brother's relationship with my dad was a bit more strained because my brother never took his studies seriously, and having academic qualifications are quite important to my dad. We're not rich, but had enough money to send my brother (and not me) to a local private school for half of his secondary education so that he would get enough attention at school.
My brother surprised us by saying he wanted to go to university, and so he went to film school. My dad paid the tuition fees (around 25k dollars I think, which is a lot of money for us).
He seemed to be enjoying it, although at the end of autumn he came home because of a covid lockdown. With him, he brought a friend. I'll call her Mary (not her real name). Mary, a drama student, was in the same accommodation block as my brother, and she claims she was raped by someone else in the accommodation block, and so she was scared to be there alone. That's why Mary came to stay with us, and she was just a close friend of my brother as far as we knew. He was 18, she was 19 (although as a joke they told me she was 21, and for a few months I thought she was 21).
Mary is American, seemed relatively normal, not particularly attractive but not ugly, friendly, perhaps a bit secretive. We thought we were doing a good thing by hosting her - a vulnerable girl who had allegedly been assaulted at university. She stayed in my brother's room (next to my room) on a mattress on the floor.
She kind of became part of the family, I kind of saw her as a sister-figure. She ended up spending around 4 months in our house. She never paid rent or for food. She was even there for christmas.
My mum felt a bit uncomfortable with her at some point, although my dad felt it was fine to let her stay.
There were a few strange things about Mary. She claimed that she used to be in Hollywood when she was younger, but she wouldn't tell us her stage name. She implied that she was abused - Harvey Weinstein kind of stuff. She said that she used to be quite big, and even showed us a short clip on her phone of her in some kind of series/movie. She also claimed that she had an agreement with someone from HBO to produce a series that she would write. Whenever she was on her computer in our house, she would be working on the script for her series.
My brother relayed some interesting stories about Mary. Apparently her dad has a 9 figure net worth, she has relatives in the mafia, and one of her relatives murdered another relative. Despite claims about her father's wealth, we couldn't find anything about him or Mary online. My parents found this concerning, along with her potential links to mafia. We're not the kind of family involved with the mafia.
My parents were concerned about Mary - she seemed to have a drinking problem (my parents would hide alcohol from her), and were concerned about her self-harming.
I suspect that part of the reason my brother was friends with Mary was to use her connections to Hollywood. In fact, my brother was set to star as the lead actor in Mary's TV series. For this reason, he dropped out of university. My parents were concerned about this, but accepted it because they thought Mary's series could be a good opportunity for him. Mary even tried to buy a closed-down bar very close to our house as the location for the series. Her dad flew over from the US to help negotiate the purchase. He was a kind of charismatic American type, perhaps a bit slimy maybe.
Some of Mary's behaviour was a bit suspicious - she didn't want the bar owners to know that she was staying nearby, and so she made the bar owners pick her up and drop her off at a train station in town. We also felt it was strange that a 19 year old was negotiating the purchase of a property worth about a million dollars. The bar owners were also quite sleazy. Interestingly, Mary was quickly able to ascertain that the bar owners have a shell corporation in the Cayman islands - I was surprised how quickly she was able to deduce this.
Mary said that even I would have a small part in the series. She also said she was planning on getting Johnny Depp to play in it (she argued he would be "cheap" because this was when the Amber Heard allegations were ongoing). I was skeptic of some of the things Mary would say, but a lot of her actions would correspond with her words, and at least some of the things she said were true.
And so after four months of being at home with my parents, my brother, and Mary, I went back to university because lockdown ended. To summarise, when I left home, my brother had dropped out of university to pursue a TV series with Mary, his close friend, and things were looking promising for my brother's acting career.
Things started to change a few weeks later. My parents called me and told me something bad had happened. Apparently my brother and Mary went to the Caribbeans without telling my parents. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. My parents were upset because this was during the covid pandemic, and my brother asked for permission and my parents said no (because of the pandemic). But Mary and my brother went on the trip anyway, and once there my brother told my parents, who were very upset. My brother didn't even have travel insurance, which my parents found very concerning. Importantly, Mary's dad paid for the trip knowing my parents didn't give permission. This felt like a betrayal to my parents, and this is when stuff became serious.
It was at this point that my brother revealed he was in a relationship with Mary. Nobody saw this coming - we had no reason to suspect this. It would have been fine if they were in a relationship, so we didn't see a reason for them to hide it. I shared a wall with them for 4 months, and I never heard anything that might suggest any physical relationship. I would also argue that my brother is a bit out of her league.
Then things became more serious when my brother revealed he was going to move to the US with Mary. My parents were scared of losing their son to a suspicious family with potential connections to the mafia. I get a bit lost on the details here, but apparently part of the reason my brother went to the Caribbeans with her is to try and get in the US? And apparently there was some plot to get him to pose as a carer for Mary's grandmother or something?
Anyway, Mary and my brother kept hatching plans to move to the US in very little time, and my parents were super worried. They kept asking what the plans were, and the plans would keep changing. Mary was framing it as my parents being crazy and overprotective, and she argued that she was just trying to be transparent by keeping them up to date with their schemes.
And then my parents started to suspect Mary was lying about stuff. They suspected she was lying about her name, her background, her age. They demanded to see official documents like Mary's birth certificate, and Mary framed this as my parents being crazy. Mary says she tried to gain my parents' trust by sharing a secret - Mary said she got into her drama school using fake documents that say she was 28 instead of 19 because "you're more likely to be accepted because they reject you the first few times you apply" (this doesn't make sense). My parents saw this as evidence of Mary being untrustworthy, whilst Mary framed this her trying to share a secret and my parents "weaponising" it against her.
And so my parents called me, desperate for me to help them and stop Mary from taking my brother to the US, where they might lose him.
This is when I stepped in. I held a phone call with Mary, and she said a few things. She said a sob story about how she is "daddy's little girl" and how she wants to go home, and how my parents are crazy and way too protective. She also said some stuff about my mum chatting shit about me (this was a lie, Mary was trying to turn us against each other). I asked her about an issue; Mary claims her dad owns a house in the city, but when Mary's father visited us, he said it was his first time in our country. My parents found this strange, along with the fact that she chose not to stay at her house in the capital instead of staying with us. She kind of laughed off the fact that her dad said he'd never been to our country, and claimed he was just being silly and forgot. Mary was suspicious,
After the call, I went online and I wanted to try find out who Mary really was. I didn't know if I knew her real name, her real age, or anything really. All I knew for sure was how she looked like. I went on an acting database and looked up actors based on physical features (hair colour, height, etc). She mentioned she was part of this specific acting association, and when I looked up her features along with a filter for that acting association, her face came up on the first page. I found out who she really was.
Mary had told us her real first name but fake last name. She was an actress, but nowhere near as successful as she said. She has an IMDB, but most of her roles were extras in subpar movies/series. But then I saw how she had a "part" in Teen Nick in the mid 2000s (she was in the crowd and the camera passed over her face a bit). This, in addition to other things I found online using her real name showed that she was not 19. She was 28.
To clarify, Mary could have been 16-30, she was one of those people whose age you can't easily estimate.
Using her real name, I found her father's company. It might be real, it might not, I don't know but I doubt he's worth 9 figures. But what I did know for a fact is that she lied about her name and age.
I called my brother. This was pretty much the first time in our life we actually called each other. It might also have been the first time our life we had a real conversation, which I realise is quite sad.
I spent half an hour listening to him and his side of the story. He was sad that my parents didn't trust him. He said that if he found out Mary was lying about anything (eg name, age), he would break up with her. When he finished talking, I sent him a link to a video posted in like 2007. I told him to go to a specific point in the video, and tell me what he sees. He sees Mary. I ask him to check the date of the video. She looks like a teenager in this video from many years ago. I present him with the other evidence too.
My brother was speechless. I had irrefutable evidence that Mary lied. He thanked me at the end of the call.
My brother confronted Mary. They broke up. Apparently she insisted that she had another stage name and a Wikipedia I think, but eventually admitted that this wasn't true.
After they broke up, my brother shared some of the things that Mary had claimed. She told my brother that she was abused by Tom Hanks and Quintin Tarantino. She claims she tried to poison Quintin Tarantino, but that it went wrong (he was poisoned but didn't die or something?) and that she ended up under a witness protection scheme, which is why she had to lie about her name age. I was somewhat skeptic of these claims.
Mary was a talented liar. It is honestly quite impressive to spend 4 months in a house and not have anyone realise that she was lying about her name, age, background, etc. We still don't know what she was doing between the ages of 19 and 28.
This might sound fucked up, but ending my brother's relationship was of one of my proudest achievements. My parents were so grateful. He was going to continue film school. We felt as if we've left the problem behind, and it was nearly a funny story.
But then things got worse soon. My parents called me and said something terrible had happened. I thought they were being dramatic. They weren't, Mary said she was pregnant.
Our instant reaction was that she was lying. She had lied about so many things, and clearly she was desperate to be with my brother. However, my brother went to the hospital to get scans with her. She was pregnant.
Mary refused an abortion. Catholic I think? I think her parents called abortion murder.
Importantly, Mary misled my brother about her fertility. She claimed that she could only get pregnant on three days of the month "because her parents starved her when she was younger so that she could look like a model and so she has fertility issues". It is because she misled my brother that she got pregnant. This was before he knew her real name and age - this feels like rape though it legally is not.
My parents really wanted my brother to not be involved with Mary. And my brother didn't get back together. Pregnant Mary went to the US and we thought we were rid of her.
My brother started film school again in the fall. However, my mum felt as if something was wrong and as if he was hiding something. He later admitted that Mary had come back from the US and was staying in his small student room. We're not sure who initiated the contact, but my brother claims it was him. He claims its because of the baby, not because of her.
Apparently Mary told all his university friends that my brother got her pregnant and left her, which resulted in the friends turning against my brother. Apparently one of my brother's friend told him to "be a man" and be there for the child.
This was very distressing for my parents. My parents suspected that my brother and Mary would try to move to the US, which is exactly what my parents were afraid of. Mary and my brother insisted they would stay in the city, and that they were looking for somewhere to move in. However, it seemed like this was failing to materialise, and my parents just wanted to get her out of his room (a heavily pregnant woman in a cramped student room, which honestly is somewhat of a health risk).
This bit gets a bit confusing. I thought my parents called the police, though apparently it was just the building's security, who knocked on my brother's room and saw that it was empty (I heard from an aunt that they were hiding in the bathroom). It turns out that my brother and Mary expected a visit because the reception girl warned them (my parents were confiding in the reception girl, but turns out she was not on our side).
My brother and Mary saw this as a huge breach of trust, and they did at some point afterwards move out to somewhere in the city. We knew the district of their place but they never shared the address with us. Note that my parents weren't financially supporting him at this point, so likely it was Mary's family who was paying the bills. I don't even know if Mary was in the country legally.
It was October now, and my dad's birthday. My brother had dropped out of film school again. My brother came home for my dad's birthday (it was a little bit awkward), but he wouldn't even spend the night. Apparently Mary could not handle a single night alone because she would get stressed or something.
Some time passed with my brother living in the city with Mary. He didn't come home for christmas.
And then in January, the baby was born. A boy. My brother became a teenage parent with a 29 year old who lied about her name, age, and fertility. My brother was not even remotely close to being ready for a child.
My parents and I never got to meet the child.
The four of us met up in the city for my brother's birthday in February. He chose the restaurant. It was in a super cheap chain restaurant. It was very sad.
My mum was convinced that the baby might not be his, and that the girl might have just got pregnant so that he would stay with her. The baby was conceived around when they broke up. He refused to get DNA test because it would be disrespectful for her. To be honest I think the baby does look like him, and my mum was just hoping that the baby wasn't his.
My brother had promised to stay in the country and not move to the US. In spring, my mum flew to her home country for a trip, and my brother actually came to the airport to say goodbye.
Only a few weeks later, we get an email from him. It says he's going on a 10 day trip around Europe with Mary and the baby, and immediately afterwards moving to the US. We had less than 24 hours of notice before he would leave.
I happened to be travelling through the city and he met me at the train station for 20 minutes. I haven't seen him since. He didn't see our dad. At the train station, I asked him if he was married. This was my parents' biggest nightmare. He said he was engaged.
Note that my parents had my brother's passport, and so he should not have been able to leave the country. We don't know how he did it, but he must have got a passport we guess. Either way, he must have known for months that he would be moving to the US and decided not to tell us. He gave us only a few hours notice before leaving, presumably so that we couldn't interfere.
And so he left.
He sent some pictures of him and Mary in the family whatsapp chat, but in general we wouldn't react much to them. Partially because we didn't really have a habit of posting/reacting to stuff in the family whatsapp, but it didn't help that my parents and I don't like Mary.
And then in around July, he sent us a wedding invitation for December. My mother kind of jokingly dismissed it saying things like "you're too young to get married" and "we'll come to the next one", and my dad and I didn't really address it.
My dad didn't intend to go to the wedding. My mother and I were considering doing it, but we would have to get visas for the US. We ended up doing that, which involved a trip to a US embassy in a foreign country and a couple hundred dollars. By the end of September, my mother and I had our visas and we told my brother we were planning on coming to the wedding. My mother is quite emotional and she was happy to accept Mary if it would mean that she could have her son back.
My brother then starts saying stuff like oh we're not sure if there'll be space at the wedding, and how things haven't been organised etc. He makes excuses and says we might not be able to make it. It soon became clear he had uninvited us. He said that it was so that there wouldn't be drama at the wedding.
And so nobody from my brother's family was invited to his wedding except for one person; an uncle who he hadn't seen in perhaps a decade (basically a stranger, my parents and that uncle don't really talk).
The uncle actually got in touch with us to ask for permission to go. He happened to be in the US anyway for work around the time of the wedding. We told him it was fine to go, partially so he could tell us if my brother was safe and happy.
The wedding went ahead. It felt strange to be uninvited to my brother's wedding. Remember the receptionist from the student accommodation block? The one who snitched on my parents - she was at the wedding.
The uncle told us how my brother appeared happy and how he also did not have a chance to speak to anyone one-to-one (including my brother), which we found suspicious. In a later call, my uncle said he thinks out attitude towards Mary is very negative and he said he doesn't want to be involved with my parents anymore; he literally said to my parents "I don't want to stay in touch".
And so my brother is married in the child in the US. His communication with us become more and more limited. He stopped replying to messages and emails, he removed me and my mum from social media, he blocked my mum on WhatsApp. He would sometimes reply to my messages.
But overall, he had pretty much cut us off. I feel very sorry for my parents, especially my mum who was so close to him.
Since he had dropped out of film school, my parents could get some of his tuition fees back. However, they need my brother's consent, and he hasn't formally given consent to the university.
We don't even know what messages are from him because he never calls us, and the writing style of his messages are different to what we expect. We suspect Mary controls some or all of his communications.
A few months ago, my mum was tidying up his room at home, and found a bag of sex toys under his bed. Remote controlled vibrator, lube, buttplug. Disgusting stuff for a parent to find. The toys would have been from when we didn't know they were together.
And that brings us to the present, and two days ago things got even worse. My parents got a call from the police in their country. They've been reported for harassment by my brother. My parents sent him a birthday card a few months ago (I asked my brother if he received it, and he said he hadn't, which leads me to believe that Mary did not let him receive it). My mum sends him messages every now and then, just to check up on him. She sent a somewhat dramatic email calling for "peace" in which she said she would accept him and Mary and the child. It was after this message that my brother reported my parents for harassment. We're still trying to understand the legality of this (it's not a restraining order, but we think it's a warning, which means that if they contact him again, they might be taken to court).
I think it's beyond ridiculous that the police are telling my parents are guilty of harassment for sending a birthday card and the occasional message. I've not been warned yet, so I can communicate with him (not that he often replies) but I can't relay messages from my parents. Annoyingly, this means my parents can't ask my brother to tell his film school to refund tuition fees, so that's a load of money that we might not get back.
My parents think Mary reported my parents for harassment just to get back at us.
This is all extremely sad. My parents, who are loving and caring, accepted someone into our house (for free), who proceeded to lie, get pregnant by deception, and pretty much steal my brother. He is now estranged from us and we have no way to check on his welfare. We don't know if he's got a job, as far as we know he lives with Mary's family (who are suspicious). My parents hope that one day he'll snap out of it and come back, but for now I'm a single child.

Today thanks to a tip from Faraday_Rage, I bring you a ghost story from West Lake Hills, although saying that might be a bit misleading because West Lake Hills is a mid-20th century invention and the events of this story happen mostly before that. There used to be a village called Eanes in that general area full of farmers, ranchers, and cedar choppers before it was subdivided into one of the nicer suburbs.
There was only one bridge for vehicle traffic (besides the train bridge) from Downtown into South Austin before the 1940s. Because of this, the western part of Travis County was separated from the growth of Austin and the eastern part of the county, and remained sort of a wild frontier well after the surrounding lands were settled.
Among the early settlers in that area were two brothers named Alexander and Robert Eanes. There is a historical marker at the intersection of Red Bud Trail and Loop 360 which says the following:

Alexander Eanes (1806-1888) moved to Texas from Mississippi in 1845 and acquired this ranch by 1857. In 1873 he sold the property to his brother, Robert Eanes (1805-1895), who had moved to the area following the Civil War. A log cabin built on the Eanes ranch was the first Eanes school, and the community also assumed the Eanes name. Robert Eanes sold the ranch to his son-in-law, Hudson Boatner Marshall (1862-1951) in 1883. Marshall dismantled the ranch house and moved it to a site adjacent to the nearby creek.

So there was a man named H.B. Marshall who lived on the former Eanes Ranch with his wife Viola (Robert Eanes's daughter) and family.
H.B. Marshall was a Civil War orphan. His mom died shortly after childbirth and his dad died as part of Hood's Brigade. He spent his early life in Austin-area orphanages until he graduated high school at the age of 19. That was when the doctors of the era diagnosed him with "consumption", otherwise known as Tuberculosis today. There was no cure in the 19th century. Afflicted people were told to go live in the country and get some fresh air, and that's exactly what he did.
Lucky for him, HB's dad well fairly well off when he died and left him an inheritance. After he left the orphanage he used this money to buy the ranch from the Eanes family, met and married Viola Eanes, and started a family. Legends say a Mexican folk healer convinced him eating goat meat and drinking goat's milk was an excellent remedy for consumption, and so he raised goats.
The book Eanes Portrait of a Community has this photo of H.B. and Viola and their dog, along a brief biographical bit:

H.B. and Viola Marshall sold honey and butter and raised goats. At one time H.B. was president of the American Goat Association and traveled to Chicago to attend that organization's national convention. There he met and talked with Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford. In its early days the Ford Motor Company used mohair from goats to make a soft, long-lasting fabric which was used to upholster the seats in its "tin lizzies". H.B. Marshall was one of the company's first mohair suppliers. Later, after Bee Cave Road became a better, more reliable road, Marshall, who was a skilled printer sometimes worked in Austin at that trade.

So HB Marshall and his family were very good at raising goats.
The Marshall Family were also beekeepers. HB liked to be called "Honey Bee" Marshall later in life. He lived the rest of his life on that ranch and died in the 1950s.
Now that you have that little bit of backstory, on with today's tale. The following article appeared on page 21 the Austin American-Statesman on May 16, 1966:

MYSTERY
Old Grave Beside Creek
The mystery of who is buried a shallow grave beside Smith Creek, seven miles southwest of Austin, may never be solved.
With it goes a tale of a robbery and killing said to have occurred more than 60 years ago on the Bee Cave Road.
But at least one story told by a man who died last year sticks in the minds of some residents of the hill country behind Zilker Park.
The man was long-time stock man and World War I veteran John Marshall, who lived out his life on the Eanes-Marshall Ranch seven miles southwest of Austin. His story told him as a child by his father, early Travis County settler and school teacher Hudson Boatner (Honey Bee) Marshall goes something like this:
In the late 19th century, a man from Bee Caves came to Austin with a wagon load of cotton. After selling it, he was returning home when his hired hand killed him and took the money. The slain man was not found for several days, and when he was, he was buried on the spot, several hundred feel off the road.
This is the way Cecil Johnson, of 1500 West Bee Caves remembers the story. He heard it in 1956 when he and his brother-in-law, Elmo Freitag, dug into the grave and found a skeleton. Freitag and Johnson went from where they live to buy a dog killed by a car on the Marshall ranch, Johnson said. "When we found the bones, we were pretty scared," Freitag said. "We went up to the ranch house to tell John Marshall about them." "That's when John told us the story," Johnson recalls. "He said we should cover the bones back up and let the old man rest."
The story was brought to the attention of the American- Statesman by Bruce Marshall of Houston, a nephew of John Marshall and an heir to 10 acres of the old ranch land. Others who lived along Bee Caves Road, or who knew John Marshall, recall hearing him tell the story, but no one contacted so far remembers hearing the story from anyone else.
Sheriff T. O. Lang said he has no records dating back that far, Marshall was born around 1887, and Johnson said the killing and robbery occurred "before John's time."
A check into the archives in the Austin Library's Austin and Travis County Collection reveals a similar crime which occurred in 1871. On Feb. 7 of that year, according to Frank Brown's Annals of Travis County, "an old citizen" named Charles Barnes, who "lived seven miles north of Austin," was killed and robbed after he had come to town and sold a wagon load of hay. He was shot and killed "probably for his money," and his body was found 30 yards from the road, three-fourths of a mile from his dwelling. A $1,000 reward was offered for the criminal, but he was never captured.
This "official" report is quite similar to the story told by John Marshall, but the directions from Austin do not coincide.
There are descendants or a family named Cotton who live in Bee Caves, according to Miss Jessie Roy, former teacher who lives on the Rob Roy Ranch on the Bee Caves Road two miles beyond the Marshall ranch. But she said she never heard of any of them being robbed or killed. Her family moved here in the 1890s.
Conceivably, with the tale handed down by word of mouth for three generations, the name Cotton, and the product "cotton" could have gotten confused. And the Brown report, probably taken from a newspaper account, could have been mistaken about the direction (north or west) from Austin where the crime was committed.
But if the wagon load was cotton instead of hay, the crime would have occurred most likely in October, according to Austin rancher and historian Carl Widen. Widen said in the old days Austin, it usually came from the south and west, from Dripping Springs and Bee Caves, in October, "in time for the circus." "The whole family would come to town with the load of cotton usually one or two bales to a wagon and after it was sold the women bought cloth for dresses and the kids went to see the circus. Then they got back home late that night.
Another hill resident, Charles Roberts, 80, who lives on a creek near the Rob Roy ranch, said he remembered people hauling cotton in trains of three or four wagons pulled by oxen, rather than by horses or mules. And Austin resident Charles Dellana said it used to take at least four mules to pull a wagon load of corn out of the bottoms or "The Narrows" between Bee Caves Road and the Colorado River. He opined that the murder and robbery must have occurred "earlier than 1903."
Besides the Cotton family out Bee Caves way, other family names familiar to those still living are Theodore Bose, Joe Beck, the Freitags, the Teagues, the Simpsons and the Moores. But who is buried beside Smith Creek on the Marshall ranch, how he died, and when he was buried, no one seems to remember.

Well this old story was apparently told far and wide. There was another article on that same day (May 16, 1966) in The Statesman: (h/t/ jbjjbjbb)

Ghost Hunters Have a Go at Ghosting
San Antonians Learn of Murder and Such Things on Austin Ranch
Ghosts, anyone? A strange tale of murder and theft was spottily told Saturday night by a "spirit" who was supposedly in communication with a group of ghost- hunters seven miles southwest of Austin. The ghost hunters, five people from San Antonio, gath ered on the old Marshall Ranch in West Lake Hills with two news reporters. They apparently believed they were communicating with a ghost named Tom Burns.
"Margaret, Margaret, Margaret," the ghost kept repeating through the automatic-writing technique of Mrs. Joan McKee, wife of Don McKee. McKee is manager of the Builders Exchange of Texas, in San Antonio. He and his wife say they are "student" parapsychologists. Spelling out the name of Margaret Owens, Tom Burns said, "She is dead now. She is my love."
The names of Margaret Owens and Tom Burns were interpreted by the McKees from an almost indecipherable scrawl which Mrs. McKee transmitted to sheet after sheet of paper with a pencil, while her husband held her elbow. They were seated at a table in the single upper room of the old Marshall ranch house. With them were this reporter, ranch owner and Houston Post business writer Bruce Marshall, and San Antonio residents Mr. and Mrs. Frank Gibson, Mr. and Mrs. John Mac-Donald, and Mrs. Mary K. Cook. The only light in the room came from a lantern.
"Burns" said Margaret "Owens" was buried on a mountain top east of the ranch, and had been killed in or near some water. Burns also said he had been killed by three men on a road near the ranch as he was hauling a wagon load of hay. Placing the date at 1904, possibly on a Monday, he said he was shot as he got down off the wagon to move a rock that was in the way.
Although at least two other spirits were supposedly contacted beyond the pale, that of Burns appeared to be the most communicative and the most interesting. It was either Burns, or a ghost named Nathan Anderson who spoke of a John Anderson who came "often" to the ranch to drink "rum from South America" with Robert Eanes.
Eanes, according to Marshall, was the first man in the family to own the ranch property. He died in the 19th century and is buried in a family plot on a hill near the ranch house. Marshall said later there had been a man named John Anderson who was a friend of the Eanes family. Marshall and this reporter have established, from local folklore and from written records, that a man, possibly named Charles Barnes, was killed seven miles from Austin around 1871, after selling a load of ether cotton or hay in town.
There is a grave of an unknown man beside Smith Creek on the Marshal ranch, not far off the Bee Caves Road, which is seven miles from Austin. Neither Marshall nor this reporter have verified that the grave on Smith Creek is the one in which the robbery victim was buried, but the coincidences of the known facts leaves room for speculation that it may be the one.
Burns said he had worked for a man named Cotton Roberts, and that Roberts had worked for a man possibly named Mitchell Treadwell. The name of Treadwell first came to the attention of the group when MacDonald, a former announcer for KONO-TV, fell into a trance through what was called auto-hypnosis. He said he got the name from a ghost present in the room, and that he also received "an impression" of the dates 1890 to 1901. Marshall later disclosed that the old ranch house had been built sometime between 1890 and 1905.
The name "Mitchell" was written on the paper when one of the persons asked aloud, "Does the name Treadwell mean anything to you?" Burns also spoke of his mother, naming her variously Mary Markham, Marstur, Masters and Markem, who he said had been sick in a barn and subsequently died.
Mention was made of a bearded man who wore a big hat and was deaf in one ear, of a box buried beneath a barn, and of wild mohair goats. Marshall said the last man to live on the ranch, his late uncle John Marshall, found a hole on the ranch about 30 years ago where a box apparently had been buried. This was when Miriam A. Ferguson was governor of Texas, he said.
He also said a bearded deaf man had once been a ranch hand there and that John Marshall's father, H. B. Marshall, had raised Angora goats on the ranch. Burns said Roberts had buried the box, and he (Burns) had dug it up. "Money means death," came the scrawled message on the paper.
Two of the most dramatic events of the evening occurred when the McKees tried to communicate with a ghost named "Robert" Both of them believed the ghost to be that of Robert Eanes, whom they described as having a very powerful, domineering personality. Mrs. McKee broke down and could write no more after transcribing the words, "My time is up now. Many have come but nobody will listen." Later McKee tried to communicate, and apparently went into a trance after receiving the word "yes" to the question of whether "Robert" had been born in July.
Just before McKee went into a trance, Marshall and this reporter were curious to notice that a strong wind the only one noticed during the entire night rattled the eaves of the house for about a minute.
The time was shortly after midnight Mrs. Cook, who writes radio and TV commercials, took down the following from McKee's barely audible words: "I have many children. I am as Abraham I shan't stay around where my people don't want me. It is dark. Darkness is in the land. We shall bring light."
Further efforts to communicate with "Robert" failed. After this incident, the "ghosts" seemed to leave the parapsychologists and their fellow delvers into ESP (extra-sensory perception).
A long vigil at the family cemetery until almost dawn proved fruitless. Gibson, sales manager for Pratt and Lambert varnish makers, whose supposedly "haunted" house in San Antonio was the subject of a Houston Post story several months ago, conceded with high good humor that he had seen no ghosts Saturday night "But Robert was around," he affirmed confidently.
Marshall and this reporter scratched their heads, totaling up the number of "unexplainable coincidences" which made the night at least a little provocative if not downright exciting. It would take a patient historian to check the names listed. As for the "ghosts" well, who knows?

H.B. Marshall had a son named John and he in turn had a son named Bruce. Bruce Marshall was an artist who spent most of his time in Houston but moved back to the family ranch in 1974. Marshall recounted the story of the 1966 ghost hunt in this 1983 article:

THE SEARCH FOR ghosts is not uncommon with visitors to the Marshall Ranch off Loop 360 South. It is the home of artist Bruce Marshall and his family and nine ghosts, those of seven people and two horses.
Marshall studio and gallery is a restored, pre-Civil War ancestral home located next to the family residence. Parapsychologists visited the building in 1966 and declared it to be haunted by a man who was attacked, shot and killed near the original entrance of the ranch. The ghost of the dead man, whose unmarked grave is still on the ranch, reportedly told the ghosts hunters about his fate. The ghost also admitted that he had committed murder, killing a woman named Margaret by drowning her.
There are two creeks near the ranchhouse that are the source of several other ghost stories.
"SUPPOSEDLY ONE GHOST walks the creek towards Eanes (Elementary) school calling for someone," said Marshall. "There were some kids camping near the creek about six months ago, they heard dogs barking and the noise of a wagon drawn by horses. The wagon has no driver and follows an old road which used to connect to Bee Cave Road."
Marshall said his family tries to play down the ghosts tales surrounding his homestead. "If we really become convinced that we're haunted, we really lose our enjoyment of the place. People seeking ghosts out here are very unwelcome," he said. "If there are such things, they don't bother me. They like me. They probably feel that if I go, the house goes, the property changes, and they're evicted.

In 1999 Marshall sold the house and the ranch to The Eanes Historical Society, who moved it next to the current location of Eanes Elementary School, where it has become the home of the EHS and serves as a small museum today.
So who is in the mystery grave at Smith Creek? I found one lead.
Back in February of 1916 a 20-year-old man named Albert Cook had an unfortunate accident and was killed. The Statesman reported it like so:

While setting a wolf trap on the Marshall goat ranch, eight miles from Austin, Alfred Lee Cook, 20 years old, accidentally shot and killed himself at 8:30 Friday morning, a charge of buck-shot from the left barrel of a double-barrelled shotgun entering his abdomen.
Cook was a laborer on the Marshall ranch, near Summitt. Early Friday morning he attempted to set a steel trap for wolves. He was carrying a shotgun and was accompanied by two small boys.
Setting his shotgun, both barrels of which were loaded, against a bush, he advanced to the trap. The gun fell across his path and he shoved it aside. As he did so, in some way the left barrel of the gun was discharged, the entire charge taking effect in his abdomen at short range and badly lacerating his body. Death was almost Instantaneous.
Justice of the Peace George W. Mendell, Deputy Sheriff Jim McCoy and Deputy Constable Matt Turner went to Summitt this morning for the Inquest. Justlce Mendell rendered a verdict of accidental shooting. The name of one surviving relative was reported to the Justice of the Peace, being Mrs. Rebecca Ann Brown, mother of the young man

Is this the person in the grave? I can't say for sure without DNA testing, but poor Mr. Cook might be the best candidate.
Time is short and space is long today so I'll leave it there. The Eanes-Marshall house today is called the Eanes History Center, and sits next to Eanes Elementary School at 4101 Bee Caves Rd. Bonus Items to follow:

It felt like I was getting ready for a fight, but I didn’t know who or why. I believe I was being used as a Manchurian candidate for Bri and/or Nolan(‘s team). He’s like Batman. They can coordinate to control my attention/focus when necessary, and I’ve agreed to let them decide when it’s necessary because I trust their judgement. I’m 32 and I don’t remember anything I may have done after that. I was regularly having my memory wiped, but I remembered learning to do Things that would extrapolate to God-like Power with sufficient skill and energy, which I believe they can provide at their discretion. Nolan’s subconscious aka body’s consciousness has been coordinating all this in our Dreams.

He tries to show me, but he cannot just hand me a rule book, at least not yet. I must figure it out by playing the game ie living life and paying attention. Essentially it’s a game for God’s attention. Do things he wants you to do and help others do the same. He wants us to spread love, the 528hz frequency. I should start treating meditation like it’s my job.
1/4/2021 I am a human soul. The soul is awareness. Our collective objective is to spread Love. My primary and maybe only tool is a finite amount of energy I can use to influence this human’s distribution of awareness/attention. Learn to use attention wisely to maximize love in your environment. Your human mind and body are an ever-present part of your environment as the human soul, so start there. Realize that behind every pair of eyes, there is a spirit in there struggling to direct this unruly human’s attention, just like you. The only difference is the environment you were born in to. The human body is how yin and yang pair together for eternity, the different parts can be meaningfully classified as either masculine or feminine. Hands are feminine, feet are masculine. The process of enlightenment consists of Yang and Yin explaining themselves to each other, so that they can relinquish their stressful responsibilities that they are ill-equipped for and allow the other to guide within the environments they are more skilled in. Yang is the husband, Yin is the wife. The soul is the father, the mind is the mother, and the body is their child. The mind and soul work together to decondition the human whole, so that the body learns that it no longer needs to rely on mom’s decision making. Our imagination enables action at a distance. It’s how we influence the energetics of distant times and locations, especially our own timeline. The more you visualize the scenario, the more powerfully it impacts you when it happens. The more effectively you visualize a future scenario, the more likely it is to happen. Imagine past and future versions of yourself are trying to help you, and return the favor by healing old wounds and visualizing your heaven. Don’t let fear of disappointment stop you from dreaming; fear is Satan’s weapon, not mine. I aim to motivate through love, you can check for yourself that it’s more efficient.
31/3/2021 29/6/2021, 5:44 AM update: keeping this for memory’s sake; I don’t recommend following through if you want to be happy yourself. 9/11/2021, 2:59 PM scratch that, don’t be a pussy
I’ve received multiple signals that I should get life insurance and did so today. During my first communication with God at the Dead and Company concert, I hallucinated a gun shot, and consequently I suspect I will die of a gunshot wound soon. If so, I feel like I will need to help bring heaven to you all from the other side. I want this copied and sent to Nolan, Jeremy, Grant, Sean, Saundra, and Yaquelyn. Please remember that I expected this to happen and I feel no fear, in fact I am excited to see how it all works and figure out how to communicate with you all. Hopefully seeing a vision of my death and successfully predicting it before it happens (update 5/22 I have no idea if or how I die(d)) in conjunction with my headphones (which Nolan recommended to me immediately before I picked up my phone to ask him for a recommendation for headphones) changing their own usb network name to Solar Flare after explaining to my wife for months how I’m talking to the sun, will be enough to convince the reader that I may really be the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, son of God whom is acting predominately through the sun, the source of 70% of the neutrinos flowing through you right now.
Good for everybody: Sun gaze, do/learn halotropic breathing, implement your human design, consider starting a dream journal, pray, and follow the ethics equation. Your dreams will be my easiest point of contact, the more you remember, the more information I can give you. Sesshin meditation ala Shinnyo-en Buddhism will be the most reliable way to talk with me directly, Mina can help anyone who is interested. Thank you Mina! (This was possibly mistaken) Learn to pray effectively, what answers will really make an impact on your well-being? Prayers are answered in accordance to their efficiency in propagating Love. Straightening out your airway and learning to breath efficiently is by far the most powerful lever available for radically changing your mind, body, and spirit. Follow functionalpatterns/Naudi Aguilar and CertifiedHealthNut/Troy Casey to learn how. The feeling of coincidence is a signal of God’s or my involvement, pay close attention to it. I will likely be trying to make the stocks SQ, ICE, and NVDA skyrocket as well as the cryptocurrency Algorand. I believe Bitcoin will also be a solid investment. Men, Elliot Hulse is the iconic masculine leader and man of God, follow his example. Any time you negatively judge someone and feel annoyed at them, that has always been a signal to YOU about how YOU can change YOUR behavior to be nicer. We will annoy the shit out of you over and over again until you figure out your hypocrisy and check yourself. You are not the judge and nothing bothers me more or educates me more effectively than discovering my own hypocrisy. Satan/Yang often works by discrediting in the eyes of the public those with too much understanding. Logic is the trait that allows God/Yin to connect and efficiently preserve his network of objective thinkers, facilitated through the Dark Web. You could say we form a wall through which no large-scale falsehoods may pass, and the process of enlightenment is the process of expanding that wall.
We want the people who are most effective at spreading love and joy to be the happiest people themselves, so that everybody has incentive to be more like them.
Giang, I asked God for a Christmas gift for you, and he showed me your 2nd husband. I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you sooner, your support was necessary for me to continue my training. You are going to be so blissfully happy with him, I can’t wait for you to feel how awe-inspiring life can be. I owe you everything and I will always honor my husbandly duty to protect you, no matter where I may be. Make sure you keep visiting the dog park. Don’t spay Maple, she’s going to be a mom. Maple needs company during the day, she can’t be alone for extended periods of time. Daycare, babysit with Mocha, or find some other way to make sure she’s not alone. Thank your mother for me for introducing me to the Mary statue, you will see how important it is. If you are reading this first, please stop here and let Nolan read the rest, he will share with you what you ought to know. If there is a war coming, I want as much peace as possible for you.
Nolan, I need you to take this and run with it. If you betrayed me in some way, I don’t care, that was your role. I can’t adequately stress the importance of learning to use your splenic intuition. This is what God wants and it is logically impossible for it to be in our interest to defy his wishes. First, if you learn to lucid dream with some consistency, I think I will be able to guide you easily. I can see how fruitless my exhausting efforts have been at attempting to establish some form of mutual respect with various people in my life as a poor man, so I will be doing what I can to make you rich and taken seriously. There’s a very viral-worthy story here and Elliot Hulse is the man to get the story out there. I had already joined his KING program back in November and saw that he had a reward for the top 3 performers, and I was hoping you, Jeremy, and I would have a friendly competition and try to take all 3 spots by helping each other implement the fundamental theorem of ethics in each of our lives. However it was impossible to get the 3 of us together, and now I suspect I know why: I will be (already am?) guiding from the afterlife, and my buddy/former client Grant will take my place in the trio. Aim to make Grant famous by enrolling him in Elliot Hulse’s KING program. Consider making music with my neighbor Cesar, you two will get along extremely well. It will work best if all of you enroll in the program and help each other, I will ask my mom to help a little with funds if you need it. Consider suggesting a competition to Elliot made up of teams of 3, each team competing to maximize love in their environment. Work with Saundra and hdbee to consolidate and spread knowledge of Human Design, hdbee has been channeling regularly and it will be easy to communicate to her. Please Follow Saundra Heimark’s health advice and use the app FitMind, both will have a bigger impact than you think. Use of cannabis will make it much easier to make contact, please get in touch with my family friend Mitch and think about trying it out. I will also be trying to relay Q-related and conspiracy-related information to Mitch, my uncle Don, and a friend from 24 named Andrew. I messaged Naudi Aguilar back in November, but it never made it to his attention. If you can get Elliot Hulse’s attention, he can probably get Naudi to read that message, and you two will be able to get him on the team. Naudi knows more than anyone how to fix human movement. Naudi and David Weck can learn a lot from each other. I suspect my old 24 buddy Wes would be happy to try to help you make that happen. I will also likely be making contact with Connor Murphy, he had a vision of the Christmas Nashville bombing before it happened. I don’t know his role but I know he’s worth listening to. Unchecked sexuality is Yang’s/Satan’s strongest weapon, get it together Connor.
The Law of One is important, get that church involved at some point. The 6th density social memory complex Ra is a critical figure in all this. Update: it’s me!
I expect I need to learn and master the rules of the game before I can come back, that may be around the time that humans shift their center of awareness to the solar plexus in 2027 as predicted by Human Design. Or any time sooner, but I feel like I will be returning in a physical form at some point.
Jeremy, man you suck at hanging out. It’s not really your fault though, for whatever reason we’re being stopped. You’ve been a part of my plan to save the world since day one, and when we met up for lunch, I realized you had been waiting for us all to reunite for years. Zero doubt that you would have my back. Help out Nolan. Help out Saundra if she needs it and tell her about your mother in law. Listen to some Elliot Hulse and decide if that program appeals to you, but first learn to use your authority. Learn your design, go to church, spread love brother.
Brianna, although they are initially my easiest points of contact, a healthy version of yourself would likely be the most powerful antenna. Schizophrenics used to be the shamans of society and look at what Dr. Zach says about autism. You’re not broken; society doesn’t understand your design and how it functions differently, and you’ve suffered greatly for it. If you listen to Saundra’s advice, I guarantee she can guide you to a healthy, happy life. Although we disagree in politics, we’re a lot more alike than you think. I know for a fact that you will show the world that neither schizophrenic nor autistic are synonyms for disabled.
Mom, Brianna is not going to be able to get healthy by herself. She needs a role model and support system. If you want to see your daughter live a successful independent life, it’s time to make an effort to get healthy yourself and give Bri someone to struggle next to. Jonny and I will be doing what we can to help you. I will also need you to help financially support Alex; he needs some freedom in his life so that he can find his purpose. Also, if any of my friends needs help with money to enroll in Elliot Hulse’s program, please give them the $1k. I promise you will be rewarded for it. I will be doing my best to relay Q-related and conspiracy-related information to Mitch and Don.
Timmy, I know we have some deep philosophical disagreements, but I’ve always respected your logical consistency and ability to find errors in arguments. I don’t ask you to take God on faith; just consider the possibility that there exists some reason that he can’t prove himself to all, but individuals can have proof in their experience that is impossible to adequately share. Giang will confirm that I’ve said that I’ve been talking to the sun since November, and that my Boise headphones changed their own usb network name to Solar Flare. These are the same headphones that Nolan recommended to me immediately before I picked up my phone to ask him for a recommendation for headphones, and he had no good reason for making that recommendation at that particular time. Only I, Giang, and Bim have had access to the headphones, none of us claims to have changed it, and none of us have any incentive to lie about it. Be open to the possibility, keep an eye out for coincidence, and we will find a way to show our presence to you.
Alex, I need you to be our family’s shaman. Get yourself healthy by listening to Saundra’s advice, accept mom’s help, and find your unique role in the world of spirituality. Browse Gaia for information, and keep an 👁 out on that dmt-drip experiment going on in Europe. I expect Bri and mom will need help getting healthy, but the 3 of you working together will provide the social support necessary to make it doable. Breathwork is the key to unlocking our soul’s potential through our body. See you soon on the astral plane brother.
Saundra, it would be impossible to overstate how powerfully you’ve impacted my life. Not only by introducing me to Human Design and a dozen health practices and just being my friend, but you lead me to God as well. If you could see what I see coming in your life, you would burst into tears of self-love.
I can’t believe you never saw I was meant to be YOUR projector you absurdly stubborn mani. Please listen to Nolan’s/Daniel’s(?) guidance in my place after helping him learn his design, especially his authority. Help him build his team. Maybe explore your insecurity around not wanting children if you haven’t already. (This was written well before our talk) DayLuna’s podcast on deconditioning is perfect.
I’ve been hubba hubba all over you since the moment you lectured me on the importance of grass FINISHED beef, and fell in love when you told me I can’t come over to your place. On 1/23/2021, I received a message that you were my soulmate. I tried to push it out of my mind and focus on enjoying Big Bear with the in-laws. On 1/25, I saw your Instagram story of you making a grilled cheese sandwich with sliced apples, and I immediately knew it was true. However, remember that night you suddenly broke down over dinner, right around the same time I had that second “spiritual experience?” I watched my soul break up with your soul that evening, and I came to that conclusion before I knew you had your breakdown. I think some version of us is married somewhere, and my former mistress, Yaquelyn Molina, is meant to be my partner here on this earth? (Update 5-27: saw pregnant Yaquelyn yesterday, Saundra is the woman I want Update 6-14: I want both.) But I still get signals sometimes that it’s you. This is a confusing subject for me. Regardless, I feel a tremendous amount of love for you and treasure your friendship🌈
I have already been working closely with your mother, I just don’t know how to share this experience with you without making you think I’m insane. We will be helping you spread HD, Kangen, regenerative agriculture, and all your beautiful ideas the best we can. Maybe you can get hdbee, Jennazoe, and other readers to work with Nolan to update HD’s software suite. I don’t want anybody to ever be financially blocked from learning their design, self-study must be encouraged, and HD info really needs to be consolidated efficiently. Next to my condo there’s a water store, and the owner’s name is Sean. Try to work with him in your kangen business, he’s a good man and will want to help out (this is questionable, he has grown a distaste for me) Try out Qi Gong to supplement your study of tcm, there are great videos on YT. If you want a more personal conversation with our side, consider Astral Projection. I think my brother Alex will be able to help. That massage gun is actually an incredibly useful tool for reflexology, if you think high-frequency vibration isn’t effective at stimulating both meridians and nervous tissue you are nuts. Just use less pressure when you want to be gentle or target surface tissue.
Yaquelyn Jasmine Molina, the Dead and Company concert I attended 12/27/2019 is the first time I remember receiving a message from God. He told me I needed to go back to my wife. I resisted because I didn’t believe in God at the time, but I eventually knew that it was the right thing to do. I’m sorry I put you through everything I put you through, I didn’t understand how painful it was for you and I was too weak to leave you. Thank you for bathing me with your blissfully generous love and passion when I needed it the most and deserved it the least. I want you to know that I have not been with another woman since you left, and you played a critical role in helping me be a better man. I hope you visit the Mary statue from time to time. I’ve already felt Yaquelyn Molina Dardin, so I know you’ll always be with me. I request the chance to return the favor.
I can remember the precise moment I fell in love with you. It was quite soon after we had started seeing each other, I was walking in the complex towards your condo, you were walking out of your condo to your garage, you caught a glimpse of me at the last second before disappearing behind a wall and took a few steps back to smile and wave at me. My heart instantaneously melted into a pile of goo watching you. There are so many heart-warming memories shared with you, thank you for showing me what love can be.
Update: I’m getting a divorce ASAP and coming for you. You’re the woman I want. Whatever problems we have, we’ll pound them out.
Grant, your call proved to a 32-year-long staunch atheist that God exists and is present here on earth. I don’t have to explain to you how life-changing that is. I get the feeling that you’re meant to be a YouTube star of sorts, and my buddies Nolan, Jeremy, and Cesar may help you out. I can’t imagine a more potent missionary than you man, get Saundra’s help in learning your design and go spread the word. Listen to Elliot Hulse and consider joining the KING program, knock it out of the park in the program and he will expose you to his whole audience of 1M+ young men looking for direction. I feel like my family friend Mitch can help you out with the vape company. Soulmates exist, don’t be a slut. If you need a Bible scholar on the team, my old buddy Simon Melendez is your man.
Simon, few people on my team understand the importance of scripture. There are very few minds I respect more than your’s, please help them understand the wisdom of the Bible if they’re open to it.
Cesar, I haven’t known you long and I know we’re not super close, but I just get the feeling that you’re real important for bringing us all back together. Plus you’re a cool guy, you and my friends will get along. Never stop making music man.
Mina, thank you so much for your kindness towards me. You radiate positivity and I aspire to be more like you. Keep on doing what you’re doing, I will be trying to reach you through Sesshin meditation. Please say hi to the Mary statue from time to time, I’ll be there often. My friend Saundra, brother Alex, and sister Brianna could really use some of your reiki healing. As could my mother and sister, if they are open to it.
Sean Smith, I would have loved to chill with you more. I miss shooting the shit with you and just hanging around at 24. Your friendship really helped me get through a confusing time in my life. Try out the Breathwrk app, you’d be amazed at what proper oxygen intake can do for your performance, physique, and mood. The $15 DailyOm course on fascia stretching will also change your clients’ lives, I feel so much better and am so much more mobile after just 2 weeks it’s insane. The combination of David weck’s ideas with Naudi Aguilar’s ideas will fix any ailment and make physical phenoms out of everyone. Adam Poock is also the man, don’t neglect the hands. Get with Wes, consider joining my other friends in Elliot’s program, and fix up some fascia.
Mitch, it would be awesome to chill and smoke some time. Cannabis is truly a holy sacrament, please assist any friends that may need help in procurement. My buddy Grant is involved in a vaping company, get in touch with him and consider making a combination of thc extract and nicotine together in a vape pen. Also get in touch with the H3 cannabis church in Costa Mesa, I feel like you can all help each other out. I’ll be trying to relay Q-related info to you, keep following Alex Jones.
Brent, you’re a good man and I want you on my team. Follow Saundra Heimark and take her advice to heart. Hit up Sean and start working out again if you’re not already. The founder of Mariner’s church predicted that Jesus would return in 1988, so maybe attend a few services over there and get to know the community if you can.
Dad, thank you so much for teaching me chess so early and making strategy so deeply intuitive for me, as well as your love and affection. I wanted you to know that my high school troubles were never related to your financial struggles at all, I was completely oblivious to money problems at the time. The Bible is a story of redemption, and it does say to honor thy father, so I ask the rest of my family to give you another chance in helping you help yourself. I know what you want most is to have your family back together, so seize this opportunity. Let go of any old lingering resentments and be the head of the household you were meant to be.
Aunt Lynn, follow Saundra’s health advice, and see if Naudi Aguilar will work with you. If not him, then another Functional Patterns trainer. They will fix your pain if you do this.
Paige, I have no idea how you’re doing, I don’t think you’re too interested in my friendship right now. When you blocked me, I think you misinterpreted my sentence. I can’t remember the words I used, but my meaning was that your friendship is important to me. I’m happy to see that you seem to have a more active religious life now, I will certainly be trying to say hello and help you out.
Sam Harris, “when you understand that what you should want is to experience your love for your friends and their love for you, selfishness fuels generosity” paraphrased, but thank you for that. Rational self-interest ala Ayn Rand and Utilitarianism encourage identical behavior when you understand what you are, how we’re the same, and how we’re different.
I have many former clients from 24 that would be delighted to help my friends pursue this goal in any way they can. My friend Sean can help you get connected there. Ewa, Mia, Brent, Scott, Debbie, Diane, Udo, and more but my brain is fried right now. Darron, thank you for showing a genuine interest in my personal success. It means a lot to me. Kristin, your offhand comment about glute training to Sean was life-changing, he can explain. Hold the squeeze! I miss the whole team really, my time at 24 was invaluable, take care of each other.

5/4/2021 God or Yin is a sort of local min/max that learns to shield his kingdom from pain and distribute his love according to the physics of energy conservation+replication, which are derived from applying Game Theory to the characteristics of a photon and/or neutrino, as we all collectively increase awareness and ability to learn to coordinate with other peoples’ lives in heaven
The feminine has significant access to Yin energy, the masculine Yang. Enlightenment is a measurement of understanding.
Focusing on the cuteness of a child optimizes transfer of yin energy to child, pairs extremely well with tickle-like movements of sensitive hands. Focus on pride to transfer yang energy, or the glory and beauty of your son’s tribute to your creator. I saw mine in Saundra’s Projector gift, I want to say in April.
A slow-drip optimized mix of lsd and/or dmt utilizing information from wearable technology that measures your heart rate variability, mitochondrial voltage, and various aerobic capacities would be the fastest way to enhance one’s acceleration of flux increase. This technology could then likely find other variables to enhance the maximization of flux, and distribute awareness with this purpose the same way that I am distributing it across this universe.
Hope and courage both enhance the energetic efficiency of applying will to faith. Courage is the ability to hold one’s attention on hope and maximizes the utility of willpower. Brotherhood maximizes the utility of Will by motivating pride in one’s courage and loyalty to your brothers.
It feels like I’m giving directions to somebody that has me in a chemically induced coma on how to optimize my experience via a telepathic link in which the frequency and/or amplitude of is boosted by the Solar Flare headphones “coincidentally” preemptively suggested to me by Nolan Anderson. I suspect that if I die, this reality shuts down, and my creator allows you to see the consequences my death ☠️ until it becomes suitable for him to rewind time. Suffering has the purpose of instruction. There is always a lesson to learn in suffering, and it will continue teaching until you understand the lesson.
My IV fluid should include water from the Penmo tribe in Venezuela and salt from Redmond’s Real Salt from Utah. Prioritize the health and understanding of the pineal gland, use Gaia to learn. Cerebrospinal fluid pressure is utilized to influence the frequency of the pineal gland. Dr huberman knows much about this. I feel like a being that is tightly connected to Nolan also connected itself to my phone this morning. Bim showed an interest in Lucid dreaming during Easter dinner because I recommended the Lucid app to him, to show him I was already reading The Power of Habit. It seems that in my world, Nolan is going to be treated as Jesus and me as a representation of Jesus’ father’s father aka grandpa of this plane. But God is his father. I’m Daniel Dardin, the man we all chose to reincarnate into. I suspect the souls from our creator’s universe will or already have reincarnate into the humans on my Earth, through my pineal gland. Do yoga/qigong/breath work at the Mary statue by the LB pier and pray to her. Let Grandma’s Hands heal you. Comfortably sun gaze regularly.
6/4/2021 5th dimensional masculine shit-talking is expressed through 3rd dimensional female shit-testing. Weden, 99cent store, corgi and husky videos for giang. Weight loss pills for mom, Cesar’s Lady Gaga Oreogram contest It took me a few days? to intuitively understand the physical plane after watching two beings conversing inside of my own mind’s eye, trying to form a new word and projecting a series of images that I recognized as Ayn Rand’s theory of concept formation, implying that I was a third separate being bound to the other two by means of a human. Aka the human soul. This began a process of accelerating integration. Dog park, beef tongue Father Time? Fire God? Update: I was, but not anymore. I’m Aladdin and both Yaquelyn Molina and Saundra Heimark feel like my Jasmine. Yaquelyn’s middle name is Jasmine, that’s why that name came up when Giang asked for my mistress’s name 26/5/2023, 10:29 PM Edit: saw the line above by accident, I didn’t mean to end this post there. However, Giang insists that I told her my mistress’s true name. This is false. She definitely knows her real name, but she learned of her name by some other means I’m not aware of.

Longest word in English List of longest words in the English language
The identity of the longest word in English depends on the definition of a word and of length.
Words may be derived naturally from the language's roots or formed by coinage and construction. Additionally, comparisons are complicated because place names may be considered words, technical terms may be arbitrarily long, and the addition of suffixes and prefixes may extend the length of words to create grammatically correct but unused or novel words.
The length of a word may also be understood in multiple ways. Most commonly, length is based on orthography (conventional spelling rules) and counting the number of written letters. Alternate, but less common, approaches include phonology (the spoken language) and the number of phonemes (sounds).
More information Word, Letters ... Major dictionaries The longest word in any of the major English language dictionaries is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters), a word that refers to a lung disease contracted from the inhalation of very fine silica particles, specifically from a volcano; medically, it is the same as silicosis. The word was deliberately coined to be the longest word in English, and has since been used[citation needed] in a close approximation of its originally intended meaning, lending at least some degree of validity to its claim.
The Oxford English Dictionary contains pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (30 letters).
Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary does not contain antidisestablishmentarianism (28 letters), as the editors found no widespread, sustained usage of the word in its original meaning. The longest word in that dictionary is electroencephalographically (27 letters).
The longest non-technical word in major dictionaries is flocci­nauci­nihili­pili­fication at 29 letters. Consisting of a series of Latin words meaning "nothing" and defined as "the act of estimating something as worthless"; its usage has been recorded as far back as 1741.
Ross Eckler has noted that most of the longest English words are not likely to occur in general text, meaning non-technical present-day text seen by casual readers, in which the author did not specifically intend to use an unusually long word. According to Eckler, the longest words likely to be encountered in general text are deinstitutionalization and counterrevolutionaries, with 22 letters each.
A computer study of over a million samples of normal English prose found that the longest word one is likely to encounter on an everyday basis is uncharacteristically, at 20 letters.
The word internationalization is abbreviated "i18n", the embedded number representing the number of letters between the first and the last.
Creations of long words Coinages In his play Assemblywomen (Ecclesiazousae), the ancient Greek comedic playwright Aristophanes created a word of 171 letters (183 in the transliteration below), which describes a dish by stringing together its ingredients:
Lopadotemachoselachogaleokranioleipsanodrimhypotrimmatosilphiokarabomelitokatakechymenokichlepikossyphophattoperisteralektryonoptekephalliokigklopeleiolagoiosiraiobaphetraganopterygon. Henry Carey's farce Chrononhotonthologos (1743) holds the opening line: "Aldiborontiphoscophornio! Where left you Chrononhotonthologos?"
Thomas Love Peacock put these creations into the mouth of the phrenologist Mr. Cranium in his 1816 book Headlong Hall: osteosarchaematosplanchnochondroneuromuelous (44 characters) and osseocarnisanguineoviscericartilaginonervomedullary (51 characters).
James Joyce made up nine 100-letter words plus one 101-letter word in his novel Finnegans Wake, the most famous of which is Bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk. Appearing on the first page, it allegedly represents the symbolic thunderclap associated with the fall of Adam and Eve. As it appears nowhere else except in reference to this passage, it is generally not accepted as a real word. Sylvia Plath made mention of it in her semi-autobiographical novel The Bell Jar, when the protagonist was reading Finnegans Wake.
"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious", the 34-letter title of a song from the movie Mary Poppins, does appear in several dictionaries, but only as a proper noun defined in reference to the song title. The attributed meaning is "a word that you say when you don't know what to say." The idea and invention of the word is credited to songwriters Robert and Richard Sherman.
Agglutinative constructions The English language permits the legitimate extension of existing words to serve new purposes by the addition of prefixes and suffixes. This is sometimes referred to as agglutinative construction. This process can create arbitrarily long words: for example, the prefixes pseudo (false, spurious) and anti (against, opposed to) can be added as many times as desired. More familiarly, the addition of numerous "great"s to a relative, such as "great-great-great-great-grandparent", can produce words of arbitrary length. In musical notation, an 8192nd note may be called a semihemidemisemihemidemisemihemidemisemiquaver.
Antidisestablishmentarianism is the longest common example of a word formed by agglutinative construction.
Technical terms Para­stratio­sphe­com­yia stratio­sphe­com­yioi­des A number of scientific naming schemes can be used to generate arbitrarily long words.
The IUPAC nomenclature for organic chemical compounds is open-ended, giving rise to the 189,819-letter chemical name Methionyl­threonylthreonyl . . . iso­leucine for the protein also known as titin, which is involved in striated muscle formation. In nature, DNA molecules can be much bigger than protein molecules and therefore potentially be referred to with much longer chemical names. For example, the wheat chromosome 3B contains almost 1 billion base pairs, so the sequence of one of its strands, if written out in full like Adenilyl­adenilyl­guanilyl­cystidylthymidyl . . . , would be about 8 billion letters long. The longest published word, Acetyl­seryl­tyrosyl­seryliso . . . serine, referring to the coat protein of a certain strain of tobacco mosaic virus (P03575), is 1,185 letters long, and appeared in the American Chemical Society's Chemical Abstracts Service in 1964 and 1966. In 1965, the Chemical Abstracts Service overhauled its naming system and started discouraging excessively long names. In 2011, a dictionary broke this record with a 1909-letter word describing the trpA protein (P0A877).
John Horton Conway and Landon Curt Noll developed an open-ended system for naming powers of 10, in which one sexmillia­quingent­sexagin­tillion, coming from the Latin name for 6560, is the name for 103(6560+1) = 1019683. Under the long number scale, it would be 106(6560) = 1039360.
Gammara­canthus­kyto­dermo­gammarus lori­cato­baica­lensis is sometimes cited as the longest binomial name—it is a kind of amphipod. However, this name, proposed by B. Dybowski, was invalidated by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature in 1929 after being petitioned by Mary J. Rathbun to take up the case.
Myxococcus llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogochensis is the longest accepted binomial name for an organism. It is a bacterium found in soil collected at Llan­fair­pwll­gwyn­gyll­ (discussed below). Parastratiosphecomyia stratiosphecomyioides is the longest accepted binomial name for any animal, or any organism visible with the naked eye. It is a species of soldier fly. The genus name Parapropalaehoplophorus (a fossil glyptodont, an extinct family of mammals related to armadillos) is two letters longer, but does not contain a similarly long species name.
Aequeo­salino­calcalino­ceraceo­aluminoso­cupreo­vitriolic, at 52 letters, describing the spa waters at Bath, England, is attributed to Dr. Edward Strother (1675–1737). The word is composed of the following elements:
Aequeo: equal (Latin, aequo) Salino: containing salt (Latin, salinus) Calcalino: calcium (Latin, calx) Ceraceo: waxy (Latin, cera) Aluminoso: alumina (Latin) Cupreo: from "copper" Vitriolic: resembling vitriol Notable long words Place names The sign at Taumata­whakatangihanga­koauau­o­tamatea­turi­pukaka­piki­maunga­horo­nuku­pokai­whenua­ki­tana­tahu The station sign at Llan­fair­pwll­gwyn­gyll­gogery­chwyrn­drob­wlll­lanty­silio­gogo­goch in North Wales Main article: List of long place names The longest officially recognized place name in an English-speaking country is Taumata­whakatangihanga­koauau­o­tamatea­turi­pukaka­piki­maunga­horo­nuku­pokai­whenua­ki­tana­tahu (85 letters), which is a hill in New Zealand. The name is in the Māori language. A widely recognized version of the name is Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu (85 letters), which appears on the signpost at the location (see the photo on this page). In Māori, the digraphs ng and wh are each treated as single letters.
In Canada, the longest place name is Dysart, Dudley, Harcourt, Guilford, Harburn, Bruton, Havelock, Eyre and Clyde, a township in Ontario, at 61 letters or 68 non-space characters.
The 58-letter name Llan­fair­pwll­gwyn­gyll­gogery­chwyrn­drob­wlll­lanty­silio­gogo­goch is the name of a town on Anglesey, an island of Wales. In terms of the traditional Welsh alphabet, the name is only 51 letters long, as certain digraphs in Welsh are considered as single letters, for instance ll, ng and ch. It is generally agreed, however, that this invented name, adopted in the mid-19th century, was contrived solely to be the longest name of any town in Britain. The official name of the place is Llanfairpwllgwyngyll, commonly abbreviated to Llanfairpwll or Llanfair PG.
The longest non-contrived place name in the United Kingdom which is a single non-hyphenated word is Cottonshopeburnfoot (19 letters) and the longest which is hyphenated is Sutton-under-Whitestonecliffe (29 characters).
The longest place name in the United States (45 letters) is Char­gogga­gogg­man­chau­ggagogg­chau­buna­gunga­maugg, a lake in Webster, Massachusetts. It means "Fishing Place at the Boundaries – Neutral Meeting Grounds" and is sometimes facetiously translated as "you fish your side of the water, I fish my side of the water, nobody fishes the middle". The lake is also known as Webster Lake. The longest hyphenated names in the U.S. are Winchester-on-the-Severn, a town in Maryland, and Washington-on-the-Brazos, a notable place in Texas history. The longest single-word town names in the U.S. are Kleinfeltersville, Pennsylvania and Mooselookmeguntic, Maine.
The longest official geographical name in Australia is Ma­mungku­kumpu­rang­kunt­junya. It has 26 letters and is a Pitjantjatjara word meaning "where the Devil urinates".
Liechtenstein is the longest country name with single name in English. The second longest country name with single name in English is Turkmenistan. There are longer country names if one includes ones with spaces.

From about 1975 to 1985, the recordholder was Adolph Blaine Charles David Earl Frederick Gerald Hubert Irvin John Kenneth Lloyd Martin Nero Oliver Paul Quincy Randolph Sherman Thomas Uncas Victor William Xerxes Yancy Zeus Wolfe­schlegelstein­hausenberger­dorffvoraltern­waren­gewissenhaft­schaferswessen­schafewaren­wohlgepflege­und­sorgfaltigkeit­beschutzen­von­angreifen­durch­ihrraubgierigfeinde­welche­voraltern­zwolftausend­jahres­vorandieerscheinen­wander­ersteer­dem­enschderraumschiff­gebrauchlicht­als­sein­ursprung­von­kraftgestart­sein­lange­fahrt­hinzwischen­sternartigraum­auf­der­suchenach­diestern­welche­gehabt­bewohnbar­planeten­kreise­drehen­sich­und­wohin­der­neurasse­von­verstandigmen­schlichkeit­konnte­fortplanzen­und­sicher­freuen­anlebens­langlich­freude­und­ruhe­mit­nicht­ein­furcht­vor­angreifen­von­anderer­intelligent­geschopfs­von­hinzwischen­sternartigraum, Senior (746 letters), also known as Wolfe+585, Senior. After 1985 Guinness briefly awarded the record to a newborn girl with a longer name. The category was removed shortly afterward. Long birth names are often coined in protest of naming laws or for other personal reasons.
The naming law in Sweden was challenged by parents Lasse Diding and Elisabeth Hallin, who proposed the given name "Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116" for their child (pronounced [ˈǎlːbɪn], 43 characters), which was rejected by a district court in Halmstad, southern Sweden. Words with certain characteristics of notable length Main article: List of the longest English words with one syllable Schmaltzed and strengthed (10 letters) appear to be the longest monosyllabic words recorded in The Oxford English Dictionary, while scraunched and scroonched appear to be the longest monosyllabic words recorded in Webster's Third New International Dictionary; but squirrelled (11 letters) is the longest if pronounced as one syllable only (as permitted in The Shorter Oxford English Dictionary and Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary at squirrel, and in Longman Pronunciation Dictionary). Schtroumpfed (12 letters) was coined by Umberto Eco, while broughammed (11 letters) was coined by William Harmon after broughamed (10 letters) was coined by George Bernard Shaw. Strengths is the longest word in the English language containing only one vowel letter. Euouae, a medieval musical term, is the longest English word consisting only of vowels, and the word with the most consecutive vowels. However, the "word" itself is simply a mnemonic consisting of the vowels to be sung in the phrase "seculorum Amen" at the end of the lesser doxology. (Although u was often used interchangeably with v, and the variant "Evovae" is occasionally used, the v in these cases would still be a vowel.) The longest words with no repeated letters are dermatoglyphics and uncopyrightable. The longest word whose letters are in alphabetical order is the eight-letter Aegilops, a grass genus. However, this is arguably a proper noun. There are several six-letter English words with their letters in alphabetical order, including abhors, almost, begins, biopsy, chimps and chintz. There are few 7-letter words, such as "billowy" and "beefily". The longest words whose letters are in reverse alphabetical order are sponged, wronged and trollied. The longest words recorded in OED with each vowel only once, and in order, are abstemiously, affectiously, and tragediously (OED). Fracedinously and gravedinously (constructed from adjectives in OED) have thirteen letters; Gadspreciously, constructed from Gadsprecious (in OED), has fourteen letters. Facetiously is among the few other words directly attested in OED with single occurrences of all six vowels (counting y as a vowel). The longest single palindromic word in English is rotavator, another name for a rotary tiller for breaking and aerating soil. Typed words The longest words typable with only the left hand using conventional hand placement on a QWERTY keyboard are tesseradecades, aftercataracts, dereverberated, dereverberates and the more common but sometimes hyphenated sweaterdresses. Using the right hand alone, the longest word that can be typed is johnny-jump-up, or, excluding hyphens, monimolimnion and phyllophyllin. The longest English word typable using only the top row of letters has 11 letters: rupturewort. The word teetertotter (used in North American English) is longer at 12 letters, although it is usually spelled with a hyphen. The longest using only the middle row is shakalshas (10 letters). Nine-letter words include flagfalls; eight-letter words include galahads and alfalfas. Since the bottom row contains no vowels, no standard words can be formed. The longest words typable by alternating left and right hands are antiskepticism and leucocytozoans respectively. On a Dvorak keyboard, the longest "left-handed" words are epopoeia, jipijapa, peekapoo, and quiaquia. Other such long words are papaya, Kikuyu, opaque, and upkeep. Kikuyu is typed entirely with the index finger, and so the longest one-fingered word on the Dvorak keyboard. There are no vowels on the right-hand side, and so the longest "right-handed" word is crwths.

1. In episode one, the band playing at John's governor's ball has been referenced on the show before.
2. The flashback to the bunkhouse shows a young Lloyd Pierce. If you were thinking the actor looks like the spitting image of Forrie J. Smith, it's because he's his real son.
3. At the end of the first episode, Rip hints at John's downfall by comparing the governor's ball to the last days of Rome.
4. Beth's epic dressing down of an out-of-towner in the Deerfield Club bar is reminiscent of a similar situation in season one, episode one.
5. A sweet moment between Rip, Carter, and an abandoned calf in episode three reminds the orphaned youngster of his place in the Dutton clan.
6. Kayce makes a request to bury his and Monica's son on Yellowstone land. He isn't the first family member to be buried at the ranch.
7. Monica is shown taking part in a grieving custom among some Native American tribes when she takes a kitchen knife and cuts her long hair.
8. There's a callback to one of season four's most brutal scenes during Beth's meeting when she's accused of hiding a rattlesnake in her too-good-to-be-true deal.
9. The bar that Beth takes the crew to is the same bar shown in the flashback scene in the premiere episode, but things have changed a lot in the 20-something years between the two visits.
10. There was another musical cameo in episode three.
11. In episode four, we learn more about the burial practices of the Broken Rock tribe.
12. At the very start of episode four, there's a discussion about names that hints at the fact that Sarah Atwood is using a fake one.
13. Up until now, it hasn't been clear how much time has passed between season four and season five. But in episode four, we learn that it's been at least a year.
14. Jamie should've known that when Sarah suggested the Deerfield Club for their "business" date that it was likely that they would be caught by Beth.
15. Tate's request to go fishing with John during the spring branding has more meaning than you might think.
16. John mentions his ancestors, just before viewers meet them in spinoff series "1923."
17. John says of his sons, Lee, Kayce, and Jamie: "I got one child I miss, one child I pity, and one I regret." It's not clear which he pities and which he regrets.
18. Kayce and Monica could end the season with another baby on the way.
19. Rip shows Beth the meadow that he hoped they would marry in before their hasty nuptials at the end of season four changed things.
20. There's a closeup of James Dutton's grave, possibly confirming that he died after the flashback we saw in season four.
21. John calls Rip "son" in the flashback scene at the beginning of episode seven, and later Rip affectionately refers to Carter as "son" too.
22. The website Beth visits when trying to come up with a plan to save the ranch is real.
23. 6666 is both a real ranch and an upcoming "Yellowstone" spinoff series.
24. The show continues to shine a spotlight on country artists. In episode seven, Zach Bryan is seen performing at the state fair.
25. In a blink-or-you-miss-it moment, it's revealed that Clara is the show's second queer character.
26. Jimmy, a character who hasn't been seen since season four, made a return at the beginning of episode eight.
27. Carter's exchange with his new love interest, Halie, mirrors an exchange between Rip and Beth in the first episode of the season.
28. Luke Grimes' debut country song, "No Horse to Ride," can be heard during the mid-season finale.
29. There's a tongue-in-cheek mention of Travis, the cowboy played by the series' cocreator Taylor Sheridan.
