You're both missing and on point. You would have to know a bit about the history of my threads and posts here to see what I'm trying to show.

I think The VOID the aptly named. And the future of such tech, parallels some of my thoughts.

Who noticed it's called, Rapture?

Rapture has 3 meanings to me.

One being akin to bliss.

Two: The prophesied (inbody raising) of the 'faithful' before the 'end of the world'.

And third...Bioshock.

Re: The VOID
Government in the past have experimented with chemical stimulants on soldiers to increase their stamina and feeling of well being/invincibility on the battlefield. This practice was considered immoral and stopped being practiced openly.

An alternative was needed and virtual reality games have become the new means of psychologically preparing the new warrior class. A large portion of the military no longer depends on direct human interaction but rather on remote controlled scenarios. Killing is no longer an in your face affair but rather a cold distant, no need to get your hands dirty undertaking.

This is the brave new world were the horror and devastation of war have been sterilized. People have been conditioned to no longer be shocked or horrified by violence has seen on the TV. Virtual reality games has taken this conditioning to the next level for a portion of the population. This physically removing one from the actual devastation is the seed that will come back and bite us in the ass, just as we see light of a better possible world.

Stimulates both increased wakefulness and decreased appetite. A soldiers 'best friend'...if you will. Tired, hungry soldiers have been the downfall of many an army. Man is after all, subject to his/her needs.

How and when does one distinguish between fantasy and reality?

One learns and adapts to what they live.

Very good point. Exactly.

There feels like a potential 'bridging' here, of dimensions. A bridging of Man's 3D waking life and the Astral, sometimes referred to as '4D'.

What would a bridging of 3D and 4D, create?

On a long enough timeline? How could such a reality be both created, manipulated, and implemented, with both Man's ingenuity and fear of death?

There's a connection here btw, figured you guys might be interested.

I did a Whois lookup on "thevoid.com"; which gave up the full name of the domain name owner and the organization.

Google search of that name and "The Void, LLC" pulls up a Linkedin Profile. Going through that profile, I find 2 people associated with "The Void, LLC", one being the "CTO" of the company.

Interestingly enough, the CTO has "LDS Church" (Church of Latter Day Saints) as his previous employer, and the other profile has "LDS Missionary/ Church Service" as his previous employer.

Combine that with the imagery and wording used throughout the website/graphics leads me to believe TheVoid.com could be linked to LDS Church.

That makes complete sense why they would be behind a project such as this.

just to clear it up; dimensions are not the astral, they are parallel realities based in physical reality...

the astral is a different density (higher vibration) not based in physical reality...

however, it takes an astral stream to animate physical life... the bridging is already there...when the physical dies, the astral stream remains... what it does now, is largely dependent on a belief system...

Not true. Growth is physical insomuch that a human infant is born completely helpless, so as not to kill his or her mother, on exit. And still often does, without significant help.

Technology is the medium on which you are currently using to express yourself.

Controls? In what sense?
