Form Follows Function. All Bible Science Models Look and Function Like Nature's Model
|
This is an entry in a series of Torah science lessons which tend to show how a religious symbol can be understood even better by looking at the microscopic and detail findings of modern science.
Previous claims to the bible not contradicting science were based on man reporting what he saw with his two eyes in nature in the macroscopic world.
These articles are not based on observations in the macroscopic world but on modern findings based on the investigations of the microscopic, sub-cellular and biochemical knowledge of the modern world.
So, although they are not like the stunning proofs of Torah science in physics and chemistry, they are candidates for Torah science.
The Science Pattern Design And Laws
Discovered by ... between
- Color. The observation about the eye is based on how the Bible uses color.
- Sleep. The next story is about the symbol of sleep used as death in the Bible and how God sees the entire planet as if it has fallen in a deep sleep.
The Eye And The Blind Spot
In every case we have been trying to demonstrate that the symbolic meaning of color is maintained throughout the design of the body by the designer.
Here is a perfect example.
- Retina (Church and the Covenant). Red, blue and green sensitivity.
- Rods (Commandments). They are low-light and black and white sensitive. Basic right and wrong.
» Night Blindness (Sin Against The Father). The inability to see clearly in the dark.
- Cones (Covenant). Sees color (Word of God in the Plan of Salvation) and the law magnified by the Son.
» Color Blindness (Sin Against The Son). It is the inability to clearly distinguish right from wrong.
Now that I know that Christ is represented by the strong force which follows the rules of color mixing, this fits what we assumed here.
- Fovea "Yellow Spot" (Holy Spirit). The fovea is responsible for good visual resolution and detail.
- Rhodopsin "Visual Purple" (Priest). Converts light into electrical impulses.
- Blind Spot (Passover). There are no rods or cones to interpret vision where the nerves exit the eye.

Cover your right eye. Look at the cross and move closer to the screen.
The bulb will disappear. This is the blind spot.

At Passover, when God came to examine sinners, the world was on His left hand, represented by Satan, and Christ was on His right hand.
He had to choose one to examine. The symbols suggested that God blinded Himself so that He could not see us and that Christ hid us in the darkness so that only He could be seen.
This feature of the blind spot makes it absolutely clear what occurred.
God did not cover both His eyes, He covered one eye because He must still be seen as omniscient "All seeing".
In covering His right eye this even showed His justice. He knew that Christ was innocent and we were guilty.
So He covered the principal eye that covered that field of vision. But He could still see both choices with the remaining eye.
But as He moved closer, He reached the blind spot on Passover at the moment He must select the sin offering and the high priest who would represent us.
» Night Blindness In the Blind Spot (15 Nisan 31AD: (12:00 PM to 3:00PM)).
The blind spot occurred with a physical manifestation on earth. There was darkness for three hours.
At that moment He looked at the High Priest before Him who was pleading for sinners, "Father forgive them".
At the blind spot only Christ was in focus, we had disappeared from view although we were physically there.
God passed over us and selected Christ at the blind spot!
» Choosing The Lord's Goat (The Compassionate High Priest).
Other symbols showed that what actually happened was that the two goats were before God on that day. Satan was on His left to accuse us and Christ was on the right to plead for us.
At the moment He chose to select the high priest who would represent us permanently He choose Christ as the Lord's Goat.
» God Winked at Our Sins.
At a precise time and location at the cross, God chose to ignore our sins and physically did this by closing one eye in a wink to physically create the blind spot phenomenon.
And the times of ignorance God winked at; but now commands all men everywhere to repent.
(Acts 17: 30)
The Unanswerable Question.
There was no hocus-pocus, nothing totally symbolic. He was not tricked. What God did to pass over sinners was a totally scientific act!
He was invited to a macabre feast by Satan and forced to judge sinners and formally choose a representative from earth at a time of Satan's choosing. God came to the feast and in a brilliant move, He stood directly in the blind spot, thwarting Satan's efforts. Absolutely Brilliant!
God said, "Show me what you have. Show me a sinner." All He saw was Christ.
Theory: Unusual Eclipse.
The design of the throne and its wheels is a picture of galaxies within galaxies. The eyes on the wheels might be the stars such as the Sun.
The three hours of darkness during the full moon at the crucifixion was not caused by any processes that we know.
The physical cause of this darkness may be related to the fact that when God winked, one of the eyes on the wheels at His throne was closed.
Can we find a retractable structure on the surface of the Sun or between the Sun and the earth that can cover its light?
Is the crucifixion blind spot one giant sun spot?

Infradian Rhythm. Meal times were inserted into the schedule. All other times are of scientific origin |
Superimposed on Jesus' sleep cycle is the normal circadian rhythm activities of the rest of the world.
The Eyes: Initiating Sleep
The eyes sets up the system of biological clocks.
A circadian rhythm is approximately a 24 hour cycle in the biochemical, physiological or behavioural processes of living things that is linked to the light-dark cycle.
The ultradian rhythms have multiple cycles within the day.
They affect the timing of sleep, wake, body temperature, thirst, and appetite.
So, the information of the time of the day as relayed by the eyes travels to the master clock in the brain which synchronizes the other clocks by releasing melatonin.
Light
Retina (Eye)
Pineal gland
Melatonin
- Light (God). The trigger that stimulates movement of the clock.
- Retina (Israel). Just as light represents God and the moon represents the reflected light of God through the church, the retina functions like the moon in the darkness.
The church processes the light from God.
- Pineal Gland (Jesus). The master gland that initiates sleep.
This gland is like an eye that recognizes the amount of light during the day.
Remember God's throne is full of eyes and God is the light.
So Jesus recognized the signs of the time and the hour of His departure. After He recognized the one who would betray Him from a prophecy He told Judas to go ahead and do what he wanted to do.
Seeking any reason to justify his behavior, Judas must have taken these words as some sort of bizarre confirmation.
- Melatonin (Priests). It is a hormone that causes sleep and gives color to the skin.
Sleep is a symbol of death and it is the priests and Judas who were directly responsible for causing His death.
Melatonin is absent or low during the day and at that time the priests had handed Jesus over to the civil authorities.
In addition to light intensity, the color of light is an important factor in the degree to which the clock is reset.
Melanopsin is most efficiently excited by blue light.
The ministry of the priests involves taking care of three colors, red, blue and purple. Blue represents the law which must be reconciled by His red blood. Purple is the union of these two functions and so represents the work of the priest to reconcile us to the law by the blood.
» Infradian Rhythm.
These have periods longer than a day. This final phase of Christ's life came at the end of another important biological cycle.
His mother would be clean 33 days after His birth. He was crucified (cut off) at the age of 33, then the church (the woman) was clean.
Here are the final rhythms.

Sleeping and dreaming, mathematics and religion are the only processes where symbolic language is important.
God uses dreams to communicate with us because we are asleep.
We have been put to sleep because sin brought the darkness of night and He intends to recreate us according to the same pattern that He created us.
Not only are we asleep, we are the seed inside our father as he sleeps, while God is attempting to make the woman from his rib.
The whole Plan of Salvation is to rescue this man and woman (church) from this death sleep.
This explains some of God's reaction to us. We are blinded because our eyes are closed in sleep.
He has to speak to us in "dark sentences" because only symbolic language is used in sleep.
He refuses to wake us up, because a fruitful awakening depends on the stage of sleep that we are in.
Jesus says that death is sleep. He also describes the entire period from the betrayal at the Passover supper until His resurrection as death. Specifically three days and nights "buried in the bowels".
Since the bible equates death to sleep, let us look at the stages of sleep to determine what occurred in all the stages of His death.
These stages are measured in terms of the brain wave activity.
Cycle 1 |
Cycle 2 |
Cycle 3 |
Cycle 4 |
Cycle 5 |
Seder |
Gethsemane |
Trial |
Crucified |
Resurrected |
» Five Cycles.
The average person goes through five of these cycles every 90-110 minutes.
This reminds us of the five cycles of curses or warnings that we get before God acts to wake us up.
In one lesson, we show what happened to Jesus during the last three days. We clearly proved that He went through four cycles of the same set of experiences before He died where each cycle progressively became worse.
We also showed a fifth cycle after the resurrection where the outcome improved according to this pattern.
- NREM N1: (Drowsy Sleep and Beta Waves). Characterized by sudden twitches, hallucinations, slow, rolling eyes, loss of muscle tone and loss of most conscious awareness of the external environment.
In this phase He saw the angel while He was deep in prayer. His loss of muscle tone allowed blood to seep through His pores.
- NREM N2: (Light Sleep: Theta Waves). Occurs after 10 minutes for 45-55% of total sleep time. Characterized by decrease in muscular activity and conscious awareness disappears and the following activities occur.
- Sleep Spindles. Short bursts of theta waves that occur two to five times per minute during the first four stages, they begin at age two and are fewer in older people.
- K-Complexes. Sudden, sharp spikes in the waves. They are found only in this stage.
This is the period after His arrest. He experienced several trials with short bursts of questions mixed with beatings and a confusing array of events.
- NREM N3 and N4: (Delta Sleep, Deep Sleep or Slow Wave Sleep). RNA transcription, protein synthesis, and release of growth hormones occur in this stage. So the body is repaired in this stage.
» Non-REM N3:. Occurs after 15 minutes, with 20-50% of delta wave activity.
» Non-REM N4:. Occurs after 45 minutes, with over 50% of delta activity and some theta activity.
Scientists have decided to combine stage three and four into one stage three.
Slow Wave Sleep Disorders.
It is characterized by night terrors, bedwetting, sleep walking and sleep talking.
- Night Terrors. Mocking, shouting, insults, beating, crucifixion, pain, darkness and siege by wild animals.
- Sleep Talking. Jesus remained quiet and did not defend Himself during the trials, but He talked on the way to the cross and on the cross.
- Sleep Walking (Somnambulism). He carried the cross to the hill where He was crucified.
» Sleep Eating. While walking people may also eat anything, even paper and metals and raw meat.
» Cannibalism. While He was on the cross, Jesus ate vinegar on a sponge. But the people symbolically ate Him, while He was symbolized as eating us to hide us from wrath.
- Bed Wetting (Enuresis). Water poured out of Him when He was asleep (dead).
» Spitting and Drooling. This is a symptom seen from personal observation. They spit on Jesus from the trial to the crucifixion.
We believe that there is a clear division between N3 and N4 on the cross. The deep sleep stage of N3 began when He walked to Golgotha and was nailed, but N4 began with the darkness.
At that horrible moment He had one memorable short outburst.
My God, My God! Why have You forsaken Me? (Psalm 22: 1 and Matthew 27: 46)
- REM : (Rapid Eye Movement). This stage occurs 20-25% of the time and it is repeated every 90 minutes. The brain is very active but the body is supposed to be paralyzed. It is characterized by rapid eye movement, paralysis, accelerated cerebral blood flow and oxygen consumption, sexual arousal and most memorable dreaming.
This is the death paralysis of His human body in the grave. The eye movement and dream state suggests what happened to His divinity.
At some level He was still all-seeing (omniscient) and all-knowing (omnipotent) but He was not omnipresent. His heel had been wounded according to the prophecy.
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, and you shall bruise him on the heel.
(Genesis 3: 15)
The retention of the other two powers shows that He was still in charge where it mattered.
» Dreams:.
Scientists are discovering that we dream during all stages, but the Non-REM dreams are different from REM dreams.
- Non-REM Dreams. These appear to be simple replays of the daily activities that occur in short bursts of compressed fragments.
They help us to learn and cause the most learning by consolidating memory.
- REM Dreams. These appear to be simulations of the future. They are not speeded up. These dreams help our creativity and help us to rehearse stressful situations to prepare for them.
REM Sleep Disorders.
It is best characterized by what happened to the divine nature of Christ while His humanity was dead.
- Narcolepsy. Periods of irresistable sleep followed by the following symptoms which are components of REM sleep occuring at the wrong time.
- Sleep Paralysis. Paralysis just before sleep or on waking. Inability to move voluntarily on waking.
» Nailed Fast. This is a combination of being nailed on the cross and the fact that the Afikoman (divine nature) was prophesied as being hidden immediately after Christ was nailed and before the human Christ was devoured and swallowed up in the grave.
- Cataplexy. Complete paralysis or loss of muscle tone while awake.
» Immobile. Since He was God, He could not die, but His divinity remained immobile in the grave.
- Hypnagogic or Hypnopompic Hallucinations. Hallucinations at sleep onset or on waking.
» Calling Elijah. The first was the visit by the angel in Gethsemane. The next occurred when the people believed that He was hallucinating because they thought He called for Elias.
In addition, like Stephen, He might have seen some indication of approval from heaven in the final moments before He committed His Spirit to God. But, we have no direct evidence of this.
- REM Without Atonia (Dream Walking). A person is not paralyzed as in normal REM sleep when dreams occur, but acts out their dreams.
At this stage on the cross, Jesus acted out and fulfilled every prophetic dream about Him.
The most memorable case occurred when He said that He was thirsty so that He could fulfill prophecy (John 19: 28-30). They responded by giving Him vinegar to drink and fulfilled several prophecies.
» REM Sleep Assault. Violent behavior while sleeping.
Jesus was assaulted in His sleep by a sleeping world.
» Narcolepsy With Cataplexy. This condition has many triggers.
Intrestingly, love can be a trigger.
So Jesus loved the world so much that He died for us. He went to sleep in death. He went into a state of narcolepsy with cataplexy and was in effect "Paralyzed by Love".
Messianic Dreams. Let us look only at the dreams and visions of the prophets and not the other prophecies.
We can categorize some of these dreams as symptoms of His sleep disorder.
- Sleep Attack. An irresistable urge to sleep in the day, but wakes feeling refreshed.
This is the determination to submit to death until He was resurrected.
» Wet Dream (Resurrection). At the earthquake several people were raised from the dead. The symbol of life being raised up from the dead is beautifully portrayed in this normal event that occurs in REM sleep.
The seeds of life raised the dead.
» God Searches For His Son (Afikoman). The symbols in the Passover Seder say that at this point, the Son was hidden or lost and God went searching for Him with a King's ransom and apparently with His eyes moving back and forth everywhere.
» Sleep Apnea. The inability to sleep and breathe at the same time. This is His death and resurrection. He died when He slept, not breathing. But His need to breathe woke Him up.
Resurrection. Then the Lord awoke as if from sleep, like a warrior sobered up from wine.
(Psalm 78: 65)
Resurrection (The Sleeper Awakens).
Then the angel who was speaking with me returned and roused me, as a man who is awakened from his sleep.
(Zechariah 4: 1)
Suffocated on the Cross. The inability to breathe is generally the cause of death by crucifixion.
» Snoring. One common symptom of sleep apnea is snoring.
The loud, reverberating sound could be symbolized by the two earthquakes at His death and resurrection.
» Crucifixion Diseases:
Helicase Malfunction.
Porphyria.
Sleep Disorders.
Leprosy.
FMF.
Theory.
The weekly cycle is represented by the seven periods in the table, each beginning with group 1A.
Lithium effects biological clock genes.
Perhaps the elements in this group are associated with the regulation of clocks.
The Unanswerable Question.
Christ described His final three and a half days as a time spent as death in the "bowels of the earth" and death as "sleep".
Many prophecies described the night terrors, and the cannibalism during this time.
Yet, how could He orchestrate the behavior of all His enemies and nature to perfectly fit the biological rhythms and the function of each section of the digestive system?
Psychology
Taking the brain as a computer database management system we are proposing certain theories based on the sanctuary and the circadian rhythms.
Theory: Brain Structure.
The folds and convolutions of the brain may be due to the coiling action that occurs as data is physically located close to primary keys.
Theory: The Purpose of Sleep.
Sleep reconstructs the database indices, moving and organizing temporary storage (the catalogue of last waking activities) into permanent storage.
» Temporary Tables (Short-Term Memory).
During the waking period, all information is stored temporarily.
As experience is accumulated it is loosely stored in a simple tree structure order with some loose connection made with indices in long term memory.
Some links are made as we consciously make the associations. Other links are made by the database as it organizes information during sleep.
So bright ideas should appear after resting.
But during sleep these temporary tables are destroyed as each memory is placed in permament storage and linked to the master index.
Theory: Lack of Sleep. It induces slow reaction and paranoia because we are seeing the effects of cross wiring, unestablished or partially established links and
an unorganized rubble of information that the brain cannot organize because it has no efficient way of untangling the mess except by LIFO or FIFO processing.
In addition, while the state of paranoia persists in the waking stage, a paranoid database is being built that will be incorporated in permanent memory using its own weird links to information.
Therefore, to incorporate new learning into the more efficient library, one must sleep after cramming for an examination.
Otherwise, the conscious mind's attempt to search the brain for information is an inefficient process using broken links and multiple tables with redundant unorganized data.
Some of this data may not even be indexed but are in flat files in FIFO order.
This frustrating, conscious search through an unorganized, conflicting mess of information appears as irritability and a definite slowing in response time.
» Hallucinations. Sleep depravation and drugs can cause hallucinations.
If the index search mechanism has a set number of times to search so that it does not get into an infinite loop then hallucinations can occur if the index returned is random or is the closest match to the real result.
Drugs could also trigger a "closest match" result or random retrieval.
Theory: Sleep Indexing.
The sleep cycles are connected to the specific type of database index building activity.
- N1. Reorganizing temporary storage by adding indexing, date and time stamping and storing in time order.
- N2. Establishing the links between temporary and permanent storage and rebuilding indexes and defragmenting storage so that related memory is in the same location.
- Sleep Spindles. The sporadic bursts of activity are evidence of the type of efforts needed to rebuild an index in physical order on the storage medium.
The fact that they occur in the first four stages indicates that indices and links are constantly being built.
- K-Complexes. These occur when a stack must be rebuilt because a link must be inserted rather than added to the end of the chain.
- N3 (Deep Sleep). Incorporating temporary database into permanent storage. The body must turn off all unnecessary activity and reduce all internal activity so that it stops or limits the new information.
Any new information must be put in temporary storage while it reorganizes previous information.
Waking up from sleep at this time is like rebooting a computer in the middle of reindexing. The work must be done again in another sleep cycle, but the deficit would depend on where the process was interrupted.
If everything is already in sequential order then the program to defrag or rebuild the stack will be completed in only one pass.
In November 2009, almost a year after writing these theories I discovered that we also dream during the non-REM stage. The description of what occurs in these dreams exactly mimics what I believe.
The memory is being packaged, consolidated, new links formed and stored. This transferrance of real memories plays out in our subconscious as dreams about what we have done.
- REM (Rapid Eye Movement). Links have been built, now it is time to consolidate knowledge and incorporate links into the moral database. Wisdom is the goal.
The behavior in this stage indicates that even at the subconscious level, the body makes you participate in building the links you desire.
Free will is maintained even in the subconscious.
People who are awakened during this time have a brain that is readily coherent and alert because the major index building has been completed.
Theory: Off-Site Storage.
Since it is an efficient system designed by God, there must be some risk management and redundancy built in.
While the folds of the brain might indicate changes in physical structure to make indexes physically closer to data, risk management requires that identical information should be stored off site at long distances.
This information does not have to include all the indices, only the raw data and important primary indexes.
It might be stored in another location in the brain or even off-site somewhere else in the body!
It might also be stored in different formats so that one will be immune to chemical attacks that target another format.
e.g. a virus, prion or toxin may attack a phospholipid link but not a DNA link.
The bible refers to other organs as storing various emotions and wisdom. From a database management perspective this design makes perfect sense.
What these organs store is apparently a copy of the minimal information used to reboot the system and the moral compass.
It stores how to evaluate data and the unindexed data itself in some chemical form.
Theory: Fat as Storage.
I suspect that this information is transported as some form of lipid from the brain and is stored as fat that is processed by the liver and kidney. The fat above the liver may be an important storage area. Even with weight loss, new fat cells are not destroyed. The body knows that it must keep these cells. Why?
Is the memory stored in the fat, or in the cell or both?
The type of information stored here may be more related to feelings and emotions.
Jews recognize two types of fat.
- Chelev. This fat was not to be eaten and was used for offering. It is found around the liver and vital organs, backbone and rump (Leviticus 3: 9-11).
Because both blood and fat were not eaten and were given totally to God, it represents God storing what He needs to recreate your life at the resurrection. These are your physical life (DNA), personality and memories (fat).
- Other Fat. This is found under the skin and in muscles and was not used for offering. It may not be memory fat.
Theory: Memory Transportation and Storage.
If fat is involved in memory, the system could be compromized in the manufacture, transportation, storage, retrieval and identification of the information.
Is fat the problem simply because it clogs up the system or is it a problem because it is not manufactured and stored properly?
Several facts point to fat as important for memory, as memory production or memory destruction.
- Infant Brain Development. Premature infants are 36% more likely to suffer learning disabilities than full term babies.
After week 29 the baby doubles their weight gain by producing more muscle and fat and hundreds of billions of nerve cells.
No new brain nerve cells will be produced after birth but the brain will continue to expand until age five.
Is the defecit caused by lack of neurons and fat?
- Niemann-Pick Disease Type C. This is a childhood onset Alzheimer's disease caused by a defect on chromosome 18. It is characterized by a build up of fatty deposits in the cells.
Does good fat insulate the memory cells and bad fat short circuit the cells? Is this a disease with a defective fat production mechanism?
- Alzheimer. Alzheimer's patients have fatty deposits in their brain. Is this because the fat-memory transport system is broken? Does this misplaced or lost fat appear as cholesterol?
It would be interesting to know if thin, older people, especially those who experience weight loss in their old age, have a greater problem with their memory. If so, does weight gain reverse some symptoms of the problem? It could if the memory is part of the fat cell not merely the fat inside the cell.
Finally, if there is a mechanism to save duplicate copies of memory off site, there must be a mechanism to transport off-site memory back to a damaged brain.
Theory: Parallel Processing.
The brain is able to do parallel processing and muti-tasking.
The process requires the management of alerts and process identification keys to determine when to launch the next step, what the next steps are, when a process can go to sleep until a trigger awakens them, how much resources to give each process, how to prioritize processes and when a process is finished.
As the brain becomes diseased and symptoms like Alzheimers appear, the ability to remember and to process many concepts is severely eroded.
People find that they are able to do one thing at a time and they must consciously find ways to store and retrieve the keys that will trigger memory because the brain has lost access to these temporary keys.
So people write more lists and notes.
Sometimes you have to return to the place where the memory was made to trigger the lost memory because the active memory space is damaged.
Those with obsessive-compulsive disorders have malfunctions that affect prioritizing and resource allocation.
Theory: Final Stages of Sleep.
This logical sequence of steps would be that after brain reorganization is complete and after REM sleep, then the data can be stored off site and then the last step is to reset the point of last memory stored.
Disruptions in sleep will always affect the final stages.
If the mechanism is broken, then the body could continually store memory because it has lost the ability to find the pointer to the last memory saved.
Improper sleep might contribute to weight gain because the body is not given the time to complete the off site memory storage by resetting the point that was last saved. So it keeps repeating and restoring the same memories and new ones.
Theory: Memory Storage.
I believe that I know how memory is stored in the brain by a mechanism that gets more efficient with more data.
Therefore, one day we should be able to read the memory of corpses and even uncover the last memories of a murder victim.
Theory: Organ Transplant.
Since the body rejects organs as not "self", one problem might be the fact that both the DNA and these memories are truly foreign.
Is it possible that liposuction destroys memory, or that transplants might affect our behavior by affecting personality and memories?
Does yo-yo dieting affect memory?
Theory: Self as Primary Key. There must be a primary key value that identifies each individual as "self" different from other individuals that is the source of transplant rejections.
The DNA appears to be the candidate, yet there must be something more that distinguishes one identical twin from another that is replicated in all cells and is simpler than DNA.
God stores several pieces of data about us. Some even before we are born.
- Length of Biological Life (Telomeres or Fatal Mutations). The covenant lifespan given is 70 years. This may be encoded in a countdown clock such as the telomere.
At the end of each DNA is a string of data that is shortened each time the cell divides. So, cells have a finite number of divisions.
In addition, we may inherit ticking time bombs that may cause premature disease. All these may factor into how God calculates our natural death.
But there may be premature accidents that have nothing to do with genetics.
Therefore, somewhere in our data identifier is the actual length of life. Is this precise clock kept in our body or in the records of heaven?
» Length of Atomic Life. There has to be an atomic count down clock or atomic telomere. The symbols and laws point to one and the bosons might be the key because the destruction is triggered by the movement of light. Radioactive decay gives us an example of how it might function.
When the shekinah glory of God moves from the sanctuary, it was a signal to break down the building and move the camp.
The building could be torn down when the bars were removed.
- Hair. God numbers the hairs on our head. God may simply be meticulous about what happens to us. But the hair might be an important identifier of self because God says it is our "glory" and for the aged it is wisdom.
- Walls. "Our walls" are continually before God. So God sees us as a sanctuary with specific dimensions.

This phenomenon points to another function that the brain must do after it effeciently organizes raw data in permanent storage.
There must be some other master table index that is built that is related to moral thinking and common sense.
Because this database requires conscious participation (free will) a person must consciously make those associations that it wants.
We consciously make the index and during sleep the database organizes it in addition to making other efficient links it can.
If we are not given the time to make those links or other people consciously tell us which links to make then the database will only build those links.
So you can wash your moral database by putting nothing in it, putting no value on data or allowing fear and reward to establish those connections.
Theory: Our Moral Core.
We all have two moral centers.
- Master ("Measure of Faith").
We are all born with a moral base that expresses itself as our conscience.
... think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith.
(Romans 12: 3)
It is not corruptible, but it can be overridden. It recognizes information that belongs in it when it hears or sees it.
Recognizing Self. So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
(Romans 10: 17)
Religious memory appears to be the last to go in cases of dementia. Therefore we should train our minds to learn scripture.
- Slave ("Free Will").
This is the core we consciously build or others try to corrupt. The person who totally submits to God builds a core that is the mirror image of the master core.
This core can be corrupted, neglected and others may attempt to reprogram it in order to bypass the influence of the master core.
The more we are not like the master core or resist its pleadings, the more our conscience will be silenced.
» No Conscience.
So technically there should be nobody without a conscience. What most likely occurs is that some people ignore their master core because they find that appealing to the slave core is more pleasing like a dopamine rush.
These people know the difference between right and wrong because they will hide their wrong doings.
They simply take the risk that they can avoid the consequences because the reward is so great.
Theory: Resisting Brain Torture.
Knowing how the brain works, we can resist torture in the form of unavoidable stress, brain washing, sleep deprivation and sensory deprivation by working with what we know about the brain.
- Core Strength. You must have a strong master and slave core that are mirror images.
At a minimum, your slave core must be built with conscious, personal efforts. At some point you must think for yourself and evaluate information freely for yourself.
- Core Beliefs. You must be faithful to your core beliefs. Situation ethics defeat the core. So your core building efforts must consider others even more than self. This way you know that you are not inflexible or "narrow minded".
People without a core or one that is in disarray often resort to such labels.
Know what you believe and why you believe it and where you could be flexible.
- Core Maintenance. Torture can only be directly aimed at core maintenance efforts. Once those efforts are breached then they can more easily subvert core beliefs and core strength.
These efforts will be accompanied with a barrage of sounds and experiences with no rest.
Some of these will be contradictory or in opposition to your core. In the end, your brain will be defragmented.
They will even try to wake you during critical portions of your sleep cycle to disrupt the normal maintenance cycle.
- Apathy. Reduce the amount of new experiences so that there will be less for your brain to do when it tries to reorganize itself.
Do not indulge in any planned activities, movies or junk food.
- Close Your Eyes and Ears. Lessen the amount of information that your brain has to process.
- Silence (Close Your Mouth). Recognizing that sleep and nutrient deprivation will affect your reasoning, consciously resort to silence and apathy. You are creating less information to process.
- Sleep. Sleep as often as possible, with your face covered or turned so that they cannot guess where you are in the sleep cycle.
- Actively Rebuild Core. During your silence, with every new experience make a conscious effort to categorize it. You will be building links that your brain does not have to do later.
With every negative and degrading statement barked at you in torture, tell youself the truth and make a lie of that statement.
The truth always is, "I am a beloved child of God. I am valuable."
- Core Recovery. When you are awake, engage in activities that will rebuild your core and lessen the amount of rebuilding activity that your core has to do.
- Joy. Repeat promises, sing songs and relive happy memories. These are already freebies that are in your core. Your brain barely has to reprocess and store them.
- Forgiveness and Realistic Hope. Anger and despair will defeat your efforts by making your brain process conspiracy and revenge scenarios. Forgiveness is efficient. It does not use up brain storage and energy.
- Strength. Remind yourself that you have strength.
- Deep Breaths. Oxygen is a source of life. While you are being deprived, this is a free nutrient that your body can use.
The Dreamers Of The Last Days.
The Snake Charmer.
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Hypnotized. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
(Genesis 3: 5,7)
Adam and Eve thought they would be more awake, but they had been hypnotized and had fallen asleep naked, and dreaming a nightmare.
The prophecies also maintain the details and stages of the symbols of death from Eden.
Sleep and darkness are symbols of death.
From Daniel we know which stage we are in.
The earth is now in a state of REM sleep and dreaming with all the disorders of sleep.

Personal Knowledge of God Decreasing | Written Knowledge | Personal Knowledge of God Increasing |
Personal Knowledge | Law on Stone | Law in the Heart |
According to the law of the blessings and curses, men will go through five phases in their relationship with God.
In the beginning, the world had first hand knowledge of God from personal experience and eye witnesses. As personal knowledge and communion with God decreased the earth fell into a state of sleep.
Sin was simply categorized as disobedience in this phase because people acknowledged the existence of God.
After the flood, it was the covenant people who kept the true knowledge of God in symbols, rituals, writings and the prophets, while the world was in the deepest phase of sleep. Disobedience became hostility as people tried to fight against a God Whom they believe existed.
In our era, we simply ignore the existence of God and are hostile to the concept.
So at the end of time, knowledge about God will be restored to the world. Then, men can no longer claim ignorance. Therefore, the fight against God is reclassified as open disobedience with extreme hostility.
» The Sleeper Awakens.
It appears that God will wake up the world and give everyone convincing knowledge of Him before the world ends.
So, in the last days, the world should experience the symptoms and sleep disorders associated with the final stages of sleep.
- The Great Awakening. Light comes to the world and wakes up the sleepers.
Light Comes.
And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
(Revelation 18: 1)
The dreamers tell a story that wakes up the church.
Dreamers. It will come about after this that I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind. And your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions.
Even on the male and female servants I will pour out My Spirit in those days.
(Joel 2: 28-29)
- Rapid Eye Movement.
Daniel was not seen as a prophet to the Jews because his predictions were too far into the future.
He was admonished to sleep until the end of time when there is a period of rapid eye movements which would cause knowledge to increase.
The prophets and dreamers of the last days would arise and recognize his prophecies.
Even in prophetic writings, REM sleep is required to consolidate knowledge.
REM (Eyes Move Back and Forth). But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many [eyes] shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.
Sleep. But as for you, go your way to the end, then you shall rest
Wake Up. and rise again for your allotted portion at the end of the age.
(Daniel 12: 4, 13)
» The Final Great Awakening.
Although the resurrection is the ultimate fulfillment of waking from the sleep of death, the symbols and the instructions to Daniel seem to suggest that the church should wake up just before the Second Coming.
Before the dead are resurrected, a great spiritual awakening will occur.
Resurrection.
And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
(Daniel 12: 2)
In this time paralysis will occur. This forces the sleeping world to stop and listen as God imposes a time of spiritual rest to learn about Him.
Oxygen consumption and blood flow to the brain increases, pointing to the work of the Holy Spirit by breathing life into the world and reasoning with humans.
- Sleep Spindles. These occur during the first four stages of sleep, but not in REM sleep. What is their spiritual significance?
Whatever they are, they will not occur in the last days. My conclusion is that they represent the noise and interruptions that have been drowning out the voice of God. These will be silenced or reduced so that God gets a fair hearing among the final generation.
- Sleep Disorders.
However, the prophecies show that at that time the last churches are suffering from various stages of sleep disorders.
- Narcolepsy. The church of Sardis is still asleep and is warned to wake up and get dressed (Revelation 3: 2 and 16: 15).
- Sleep Paralysis and Cataplexy. Laodicea is the church that is in paralysis.
- REM Without Atonia (Dream Acting). We will be acting out or repeating great events like the confrontation of Elijah and the enemies of God, latter rain, the selection of the scapegoat or the Lord's goat and the final exodus.
Everyone will fulfill or act out all the prophecies of the last days.
- Sleep Attack. Some will be unable to recognize the times and will go to sleep spiritually. Others will suddenly go to sleep in death because they cannot go through the perilous times.
- Sleep Apnea. They will find it difficult to sleep while the Holy Spirit is breathing on them. They will wake up.
- The Sleeper Awakens. Once awake, the world chooses between the Lord's Goat and the scapegoat.
It appears that when the Jews were asked to do this at the crucifixion, they were in the deepest phases of sleep and could not be expected to make a good decision.
This is why Isaiah described them in this manner.
The Nation that Sleeps.
... You will keep on hearing, but you will not understand. You will keep on seeing, but you will not perceive.
For the heart of this people has become dull, with their ears they scarcely hear, and they have closed their eyes, otherwise they would see with their eyes, hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts and return, and I would heal them.
(Matthew 13: 14-15 and Isaiah 6: 9)
Therefore I speak to them in parables, because while seeing they do not see and while hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
(Matthew 13: 13)
Israel was fast asleep in stage 4 at the crucifixion, not responding to the dreams about the Messiah.
- Hallucinations. The world experiences global hallucinations on sleeping and waking.
- Hypnagogic Hallucinations. Satan appeared to Eve and deceived her, causing the great sleep.
- Hypnopompic Hallucinations. Satan will appear again at the end of time as the scapegoat dressed as an angel of light to deceive the final generation.
Because God wakes us up to warn us of these deceptions, the world should be prepared to resist Satan.
He will eventually terrorize the righteous who resist.
Science lies within the realm of religion and exists to express the will of the Creator YHWH God.
There is one law for people and atoms made by the same Creator and Lawgiver YHWH.
"Come now, and let us reason together," Says the LORD, "Though your sins are as scarlet, they will be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they will be like wool.
(Isaiah 1: 18)
God's Ambush.
Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.
(Jeremiah 51: 12)
