Hope everyone's weekend is going as well as the club show and shine looks.

Talked to brother Bob.
At least he isn't writing a manifesto.
Told him about Google Duplex and he went on how the alien whistleblowers talk about planets where their AIs got too smart and took over the planets. Asked if he had ever seen the movie "The Terminator," he said no he hasn't heard of that one? Then went on to tell me I needed to spend $10/mo on some web site that has all this info on extraterrestrial stuff. Can't afford to eat, but he can afford that web site.

Told me about a paper he is writing for some advanced class based on Urantia. Think it is as close as they can get a a seminary without any accreditation what so ever. The paper is about how people do good or not and how they deal with hardships based on whether or not they have a faith that promises a happy afterlife.

Told him about the French computer scientist that tells about the huge amount of data input your brain deals with and makes decisions on. When a person dies their brain still shows activity for 7 minutes after all the electrical inputs have stopped. How people experience their whole life flashing before there eyes in just 2 seconds of those 7 minutes. Then says if it only took your brain 2 seconds to show you 70 years and stayed active for another 418 seconds with no inputs that few minutes would seem like an eternity. Going by the 2 seconds for 70 years it would have 29,260 years left of processing time to fill. Said he went on to describe how it didn't really matter if there really was an afterlife your brain would give you whatever itconcluded your afterlife was supposed to be like for the 418 seconds.

Bob, didn't understand at all. Instead told me about his out-of-body experience when he had his heart attack. Somehow it exactly matched the Urantia stuff he has been studying.
