Every scientific theory either already has or will in the future, be proven wrong and then replaced with a newer theory, which in turn eventually also gets proven wrong.
It's important that people realize that science is always wrong.
academia would like us to ignore.
In 1697, a French Jesuit missionary in China, Joachim Bouvet, introduced the I Ching to German mathematician and philosopher, Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibnitz, who was amazed by the Book of Changes and its use of binary arithmetic, then unknown in Europe. Leibnitz spread the good word, and thus our civilization was first introduced to binary arithmetic, which is not only the cornerstone of the Book of Changes but also the language of all modern computers. Leibnitz was not the only great mind fascinated with the I Ching. Foremost among those who extolled its merit was no doubt psychologist Carl C. Jung, who saw in the Book of Changes the most perfect illustration of his own Theory of Archetypes and referred to the I Ching as "the most profound book ever to come from the East."
Books that relate the history of computers generally credit the digital theory that is the foundation of computer systems to Gottfried Leibniz, who is many times referred to as "the father of the digital revolution". The picture on the left is an illustration of the binary system that Leibniz created, and the picture below is an illustration of the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching. There is not much difference between the two illustrations as the picture on the left merely uses the numbers 0 and 1 rather than the symbols of Yin and Yang.
"In his article Explication de l'Arithmétique Binaire (1703) Gottfried Leibniz writes that he has found in the hexagrams a base for claiming the universality of the binary numeral system. He takes the layout of the combinatorial excercise found in the hexagrams to represent binary sequences, so that |||||| would correspond to the binary sequence 000000 and |||||: would be 000001, and so forth."

You're trying to say that technology is a result of modern science.
In reality there was never this level of technology for 12,000 years and then all of a sudden in modern times it appears again.
Certain things are just discovered when they are destined to be, or when they were planned to be introduced. It's not because of humans or modern science though.
Ancient spiritual people who lived in harmony with nature had much greater knowledge than modern scientists of today.

The people who had poor lives and died of diseases all the time were societal people, not people who lived in nature or true spiritual monasteries etc
People long ago in history could live to be 100 and be healthy their whole lives, if they lived properly and had the knowledge.....which in the past, the knowledge of health and longevity was a feircly gaurded secret

True spiritual lineages had to be kept in tact, unmolested and uncorrupted through history

Thanks Hollywood for this, you make good threads.
There's a obvious cover going on and GH puts tons of evidence forward to much to be dismissed like someones doing in this thread. lol
What I like about GH is that even what he says backed with evidence that he doesn't as if its set in stone unlike some people already like to think it is.
