Rethinking Darwin: A Vedic Study of Darwinism and Intelligent Design

Rethinking Darwin: A Vedic Study of Darwinism and Intelligent Design is an intelligent design book written by Hindu creationists Leif A. Jensen and Michael Cremo with contributions from intelligent design advocates William Dembski, Jonathan Wells and Michael Behe. It was published by the ISKCON Bhaktivedanta Book Trust in 2011.Rethinking Darwin
==Overview==
Leif A. Jensen (Lalitanatha Dasa) and Michael Cremo discuss the Hindu view of creationism whilst rejecting evolution. They claim that a cosmic mind (Brahma) accounts for the design in nature whilst Dembski, Wells and Behe reject evolution and give arguments for intelligent design from biochemistry, the fossil record and biology.Rethinking Darwin Overview at Bhaktivedanta Library servicesLeif Jensen examines intelligent design from a Vedic perspective The book also contains chapters on consciousness studies, reincarnation, paranormal phenomena, and ends with a final chapter proposing a Vedic understanding of how life began in opposition to naturalistic processes.Rethinking Darwin by Leif A.

Retórica

A retórica é um aspecto da comunicação, desenvolvida na Grécia antica, aplica-se tanto para a comunicação escrita e oral, e usalmente involve persuasão, disputa e argumento.
A retórica clássica usa de 3 recursos retóricos.
*ethos: Um apelo ao caráter, credibilidade e autoridade
*pathos: Um apelo à emoção e a identidade
*logos: Um apelo à lógica.
Apesar de Aristóteles (junto com a maioria das pessoas racionais) utilizar-se do logos, in todos os três são efetivos na persuasão, e os argumentos mais convicentes usam-se de todos. É notável que as falácias lógicas podem ser empregadas efetivamente em um argumento, desde que a oposição não os "pegarem" fazendo-o.
==O básico da argumentação==
===Ethos===
Apelar para a reputação é essencial para conseguir o apoio da audiência. Isso pode ser resumido em três estratégias:Heinrichs, p. 374-376
*Virtude: consiste em mostrar que o orador e a audiência compartilham dos mesmos valores. É mais provável que a audiência seja convencida por alguem com ela se identifique.
*Sabedoria prática: consiste em mostrar as próprias credencias, experiência, e, acima de tudo, fazer com que as suas posições pareçam estar encima do muro, ou com compormissos razoáveis.
*Desinteresse: consiste em parecer desenviesado ou relutante ao chegar a suas conclusões. 
Ethos é melhor utuilizada para fazer com que a audiência concorde com você e seja contra seu oponentes.Heinrichs, p. 40
===Logos===
Vá em frente, veja o guia. A lógica é melhor utilizada para fazer com que a audiência concorde com você.
===Pathos===
Essa é, tipicamente, a parte final e mais forte de um argumento, apesar de ser a mais falaciosa. Argumentos emocionais são melhor utilizadas para fazer com que outras ajam, e serve com auxílio quando a lógica não está no lado do orador. Geralmente, o pathos é desencorajado e políticos que o usam são rapidamente apontados pelos seu oponentes como alarmistas. Nem todas as emoções têm de ser negativas para serem efetivas, um bom orador pode utilizar-se do bom humor e da simpatia em um discurso para controlar a audiência.
As emoções sempre devem aparecer estar sobre controle, mesmo que no mínimo; a paixão descontrolada é geralmente demasiada para convencer a audiência.
===Kairos===
O Kairos é a arte de utilizar o timing certo para um argumento.Heinrichs, p. 261 isso geralmente resume-se ao common sense — um argumento baseado na reputação irá funcionar melhor depois de ter se realizado algo, um argumento baseado na lógica funcionará melhor quando a audiência está contente e desejando escuta, um argumento basead na emoção funcionará melhor quando está numa fase de crise.

Revelation Theory of Creation

The Revelation Theory is an obscure variant of Old Earth Creationism which asserts that the days as outlined in Genesis 1 are in fact not days of creation but days in which God revealed to Adam about the creation that had happened long before.
==Wait, what?==
The "Revelation Theory" was developed by Assyriologist P. J. Wiseman in his book Creation Revealed in Six Days (1946). The theory is directly linked to Wiseman's idea that the authors of Genesis were the early patriarchs themselves, who wrote on tablets and passed these down, citing toledothes throughout Genesis as evidences of tablet colophons. Based on this interpretation of the structure of Genesis, Wiseman argues that God directly revealed to Adam through a relevation over six literal 24 hour days the creation (as outlined in Gen. 1: 1 - 2: 4b or "Tablet 1"), but which had occurred millions if not billions of years ago. While Wiseman in his book does not dispute scientific consensus regarding the age of the earth or universe, he denies evolution, claiming that God created all life forms in their "kinds". However Wiseman claims that Adam is the author of Gen. 1, having been revealed information about the creation by God over six literal days (he does not attempt to date when this revelation occurred). He argues though that this information about the creation is not specific or detailed because the Genesis creation narrative was entirely written by man, who merely could only record limited details from memory and on tablet. He concludes by asserting that science can fill in the gaps of the creation but that Gen. 1 shows God was the "originator and controller" of the creation.
==Support and criticism==
P. J. Wiseman's son, Donald Wiseman, later developed the idea, republishing Creation Revealed in Six Days in 1977 (with an added foreword), and producing an article in 1991. The concept has not, however, received any notable support. Livingstone (1992) briefly discusses it in a single footnote, while other creationists have completely ignored it, largely on the grounds of its excessive materialism (claiming Adam as the author of Genesis 1 as opposed to God). Revelation Theory is probably the most sincere form of Biblical creationism attempting to appear rational, but still in the end completely fails.
Perhaps creationists have seen the potential problem(s) with Adam as the author of Genesis 1. The Tower of Babel would render whatever Adam wrote unintelligible, which would require God to reinterpret the contents back to other prophets.

Reverse psychology

Reverse psychology is a persuasion technique used mostly on children. It also works on many adults with limited intellect. Basically, there are two ways to apply reverse psychology:
#Tell somebody that you forbid them to perform a task that you want them to perform;
#Order somebody to perform a task that is the polar opposite of the task you want them to perform.
For example, not only does Rush Limbaugh never (well, almost never) tell his audience to call politicians to protest their actions, he makes a point of telling his audience over the air that he never tells them to call politicians to protest their actions. Within a few minutes, said politicians' phones, fax machines and e-mail boxes are flooded with messages from irate dittoheads.
Reverse psychology usually relies on exploiting an individual's assumed distaste for authoritarianism. In the case of Rush Limbaugh, his claims that they should "never" do something that serves to remind the audience that they could do that thing.

Reverse speech

The idea of reverse speech claims that a recording of ordinary human speech, played backwards, can be interpreted as having completely different words. These words apparently reveal emotions or beliefs that the speaker intended to keep hidden. Different people tend to hear different messages from the same portion of backwards audio, and a consensus only occurs when someone claims and promotes that a certain phrase is heard. Once people are told what they're supposed to hear, they think they can hear it clearly.
==David Oates==
An Ozzie con-man by the name of David John Oates is the major promoter of the idea of reverse speech. Because Oates believes that the technique shows what people truly believe, he thinks that it has value in psychological evaluation. Amazingly, some people believe him. Oates sometimes gets access to the mass media and some punters apparently cough up actual money for his equipment and instructions. Oates was a frequent guest on Art Bell's radio show in the 1990s, where for a few years he lucratively marketed his reverse speech products, until 1999 when Bell filed a $60 million slander lawsuit against Oates in the Supreme Court of California. https://www.plainsite.org/dockets/2rcrtifnh/superior-court-of-california-county-of-los-angeles/art-bell-v-david-john-oates/ In an epic fail of biting the hand that feeds, Oates had alleged on his website that reversals of Bell's speech proved that Bell consumed child pornography. 
==Examples==
*Bill Clinton says, forwards, "I try to articulate my position as clearly as possible." Backwards, this becomes "She's a fun girl to kiss."
*A radio commentator at the scene of the JFK assassination, and before the facts were actually known, says in reverse "He's shot bad. Hold it. Try and look up."
*Sandra Bernhard, talking about a night with some pals, says in reverse "They pulled out the grass."

Review article

In contrast to other types of research papers, a review article or survey paper is a scientific publication that does not make new data available, but aims to synthesize the state of knowledge about a certain question or field of research. It typically has a very long reference list.
Conversely, review papers are usually also cited much more frequently than other papers in the same field. The intention of the authors is often to point their peers towards unresolved problems, and to suggest directions for research to take in the immediate future.
In several areas of science, journals exist that specialize in publishing reviews. They can generally be recognized by tell-tale elements of their titles, such as "progress," "trends," or "reviews." In some cases, they are prestigious enough to publish by invitation only. An example is the "Trends in XYZ" group of biology journals.http://www.trends.com/
Another type of review paper is called a meta-analysis, which — rather than simply summarizing current knowledge — attempts to synthesize results from different analyses by combining data and using statistics across studies to obtain a hopefully more powerful result.

Revival meeting

A revival meeting is a week-long (or longer) series of daily services held in some Christian churches (usually ones of the fundamentalist or Pentecostal variety). Often such meetings will involve a visiting evangelist from out of town. One traditional image of such meetings is the "tent revival", where an evangelist sets up a large tent and preaches nightly, although this form of revival meeting has become less common. Another variant involves the where church members go to a weekend or week-long retreat to be immersed in Revival meetings aim to "revive" church members into living more "holy" lives and into rekindling their religious faith, as well as to attract the curious to attend and (hopefully) convert. 
The Pentecostal movement began during a series of revival meetings in 1906 in Azusa, California, where the intense services led to incidents of speaking in tongues and faith healings, reports of which attracted many visitors. Billy Graham (1918-2018) got his first big boost into fame by holding a tent revival in 1949. In some ways revival meetings served as religious predecessors to large group awareness training
and Amway motivational meetings, which have both copied many of the same practices.
Snake handling is usually not part of such meetings, popular stereotypes to the contrary. However, revivals are usually much more emotionally and spiritually intense than the usual Sunday church service, and in some churches may involve a concerted effort at spiritual warfare, faith-healing, exorcisms, etc., while in other churches a heavy dose of hell-fire-and-damnation sermons aim to scare the devil out of you. Sometimes they just involve a lot of love bombing.

Revolution

A revolution is a change which is either sudden, profound, or both. Evolution is more gradual or transitional changes.
Revolutions can include national revolutions and regime-changes such as the French Revolution, American Revolution, and Russian Revolution, as well as societal shifts in practices or attitudes, such as the Industrial Revolution or the sexual revolution.
==National revolutions==
Revolutions usually refer to the overthrow and replacement of a government. This can occur violently (like most of the ones we usually talk about) or non-violently (like the many "color" revolutions in the early 21st centuryThis refers to the "Orange Revolution" (Ukraine 2004), the "Rose Revolution" (Georgia 2003), the "Blue Revolution" (Kuwait 2005), and the "Purple Revolution" (Iraq 2005). Belarus had a "Denim Revolution" and Burma a "Saffron Revolution." Of course, the "rose" revolution may have been about the flower, as there was a "Tulip Revolution" in Kyrgyzstan (2005) (also called "Pink Revolution") — and a "Cedar Revolution" in Lebanon. If we say that denim is indigo, then we pretty much have an entire rainbow of revolutions.).
Revolutions are usually swift. When they aren't, they can degenerate into civil war (one exception is when colonies try to throw off their colonial masters; those are still called revolutions, even when the fighting goes on for decades).
The French (1789 – 1799) and Russian (1917) revolutions are among the most noteworthy of modern revolutions, although there was a minor altercation on the eastern coast of North America (1775 – 1783) which has some claim to notoriety. A more contemporary example would be the 2014 Ukrainian Revolution, which replaced the incredibly corrupt pro-Russia government with a less corrupt parliamentary democracy.
A counterrevolution occurs whenever someone tries to undo the revolution. It is an odd thing, though, when powers that have been in place for fifty years call people fighting against them "counterrevolutionaries" (as Communist Party of China propaganda still does). At that point, you'd think they'd be regular revolutionaries again.
==Economic revolutions==
A revolution can also refer to when social and economic dynamics are fundamentally transformed. For example, the Industrial Revolution led to mass production and urbanization, the Green Revolution spread advanced agricultural techniques to parts of the developing world, and the Information Revolution placed much of human knowledge at the fingertips of every well-off man, woman, and child on Earth.
==Scientific revolutions==
:See main article: Scientific revolution
Also known as "paradigm shifts", scientific revolutions are periods when our understanding of the world around us is radically altered or improved. Some examples include:
*The Copernican revolution, which displaced geocentric theories in astronomy
*Newton's physics
*Darwin's biology
*Freud's psychology
*Einstein's relativity
*Quantum mechanics

Rex Research

Rex Research is a website which promotes pseudoscience and conspiracy theories. It includes such things as perpetual motion machines and Tetrasil. The site is, as a whole, very similar to Time Cube: They both promote questionable theories in a rambling, largely incomprehensible way, and they both have horribly designed webpages, with Rex Research having huge walls of links.
Its stated goal is:
Various bits of information suggest that the site is a parody. According to Nelson's biography,nelson-bio (NSFW) he works as a gigolo for aliens, and is a member of the Illuminati and that group's candidate for the U.S. elections. There is also a link at the bottom of the homepage to a SubGenius radio station page hosted by Rex Research.Show There are also such gems as:

Reyna Chicas

Reyna Chicas is the charismatic leader of a small Pentecostal group of Salvadoran immigrant women and children in California identified as an apocalyptic cult in the U.S. press. The sudden disappearance of the group preceded other alarming behaviors suggesting possible mass suicide led to a 22 hour police manhunt in the San Gabriel Mountains and Antelope Valley that ended on September 20, 2010. Nobody died, but Chicas was placed into "involuntary mental health evaluation" for a short period, while her kids were placed in protective custody.Children of Palmdale Religious Sect Leader Put in Protective Custody
