Why You Can't Reverse-Engineer Human Beings: The Metaphysics of the Soul | Prof. Joshua Hochschild

(Please note: The following description was added one day after this track was first posted, and after a few listeners had liked it. In all fairness, since the description wasn't there when those listeners liked it, it should be said that they may not necessarily agree with what I've expressed below...)

This recording was especially made as a contribution to the Northern Hemisphere's ''International' Dawn Chorus Day'. Personally, I prefer to call it 'Northern Hemisphere Dawn Chorus Day', because in the Northern Hemisphere it is Spring and the days are long, while in the Southern Hemisphere it is Autumn and the nights are long. For that reason, I would prefer to celebrate a complementary 'Southern Hemisphere Dawn Chorus Day'. The complementary polar date would be the first Sunday in November.

However, here where I live, a human-concocted curse called 'Daylight Saving' is inflicted (for human economic reasons) on much of Nature from the first Sunday of October every year until the first Sunday in April of the following year. One of the most significant consequences of this curse is that, in most places, First Light, and the Dawn Chorus (also known as The Hour of the Birds), are never truly free of the contamination of human economic activity and the vast noise that goes with it. Nature is never given time to be itself, to hear itself, except in its remotest parts (and even then, of course, there are the jets, carrying busy little humans to and fro across the skies). Even so, I believe it is good and wholesome to seek out, be immersed in, absorb, enjoy, and celebrate the dawn; and perhaps, in this way, inspire others with a sense of the importance and value of giving Nature some genuine time off from our noisy human ways. Imagine an International Day of Human Silence for Nature...

Francis Boyle discusses how the U.S. and China collaborated on the development of the COVID-19 gain-of-function bioweapon. The elites in both Beijing and Washington have more in common with each other than with their own people due to their totalitarian mentality. The mandates are a clear violation of the Nuremberg Code and constitute a crime against humanity (e.g. murder, extermination, inhumane acts committed against civilians). Governments are persecuting their own citizens just like the Nazi government persecuted German Jews. We are seeing a Nazi mentality at work by all governments enforcing these frankenshots, the Nazi philosophy of "useless eaters" and depopulation. It is impossible to create a vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 if it is a bioweapon. The biowarfare simulations are war games that go live and monkeypox is another bioweapon released just as voting is underway to give WHO totalitarian powers and set up a global medical police state and tyranny. In his book he argues principles of international law that can be used internationally to try and stop this. We are seeing a war against humanity by the scientific elite, this is World War III.
