      Subject: Pensées 77
      
      David,
      
      Please pardon me for interrupting you.
      
      Tastes Great~Less Filling. Half Empty~Half Full. Where is the Beef?
      Clearly, I am not a philosopher.
      
      My college degree is a BSCS with a minor in artificial intelligence.
      Modern Ai large language models like ChatGPT are transforming the world at
      a dramatic rate.
      
      In the below linked article you state, "For Pascal, belief would make the
      difference between misery and true happiness"
      
      400 years ago, philosopher Blaise Pascal was one of the
        first to grapple with the role of faith in an age of science and reason
      
      I find Pascal's BLeaf to be compromised by Sapir-Whorfism induced by the
      preaching of the Catholic church.
      
      For example Pensées 77, "I cannot forgive Descartes. In all his philosophy
      he would have been quite willing to dispense with God. But he had to make
      Him give a fillip to set the world in motion; beyond this, he has no
      further need of God."
      
      In my biased Sapir-Whorfed viewpoint, a good Christian forgives, thus
      Pascal's Pensées 77 begins in hypocrisy. I do agree that happiness is a
      mindset to not be miserable, but I disagree that God is the reason of my
      happiness..
      
      Putting the nit-picking aside, my world view was drastically changed due
      to serious injuries I received from a serious automobile accident on 19
      Jun 1977. That night left me with a persistent memory of being dead.
      
      Predicatively your Sapir-Whorfed mind programmed by modern language and
      compounded by ignorance due to the lack of your personal death experience,
      you most likely misinterpreted my typed words by assuming that I had a
      near death experience. Predicatively  most scientists rationalize my
      death experience as an overdose of DMT, Dimethyltryptamine.
      
      I assure you that there was nothing near to it.
      19 Jun 1977 Death Experience
      
      Case in point: A near death experience is a person standing in the middle
      of the street who is nearly hit by a dump truck.
      
      In your philosophical mind, can you imagine that your above linked article
      about the Pope's 19 Jun 2023 letter is a sign from God?
      
      I am asking you to see the forest from within the trees.
      I am asking you to hear the unseen falling trees.
      I am asking you to feel the words that I write.
      I am asking you to blank your slate, tabula rasa.
      
      For 26 years, I was at peace with the memory of my death. After a long
      string of coin incidences, I began to look at the memory of my death in
      the reverse.
      
      "... I asked, "Who are you?" The voice answered, "Just call me father." In
      the center of my being I heard, "Christ", ... "
      
      When I asked who are you, I heard just call me father. At that moment in
      time, my atheist mind grappled with the fact that I was in the presence of
      Christ.
      
      Since I requested you to blank your slate, let me hold the mirror up for
      you.
      
      On 16 Sep 2003, the statement just call me Father, suddenly interpreted as
      I was in the presence of God, and God was calling me Christ.
      
      That night in an extreme panic, I stumbled into abstract photography.
      Repeating to myself, I do not want that job, and you can not make me.
      
      Over the next few months, the creation of abstract photography became my
      therapy. The artwork became my distraction from my unshakable revelation
      that God said I am a Christ.
      
      Again, I must blank your slate. Stop seeing the trees in the forest. I did
      not type, I am the Christ, I typed, I am a Christ. 
      
      Over the next year, I investigated the biblical Jesus. In my research, I
      found a snippet in Matthew where Peter walked on water.
      
      Peter walked on water until he lost sight of Christ, Peter was saved from
      drowning by Christ, and Peter was admonished by Christ, "“You of little
      faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”"
      
      I walked away from this story with the mindset that anyone can be a
      Christ.
      
      My dividing line became: if a person's actions are based in love then they
      embody the spirit of Christ, but if a person's actions are based in hate
      then they embody the spirit of the Anti-Christ.
      
      Over the next year, I created over two terabytes of abstract artwork. Out
      of the artwork emerged an equation that explains to me how I was in a
      spirit state observing the physical world. 
      
      In the fall of 2004, I went to the oldest church in Atlanta Ga. the
      Immaculate Conception Shrine. I met with Monsignor Henry Gracz and I told
      him that the Immaculate Conception Shrine rests of stones quarried,
      placed, and donated by my family to the Catholic church. 
      
      Side note: my family lived in the city limits of Atlanta during the
      American Civil war. They lived the real Gone With The Wind.
      
      I told Henry about my death experience, and I made a prediction, "If my
      writings are correct, something great is going to happen in December.",
      and Henry said, "Let's hope it is something good."
      
      In our conversation I asked a quandary, "If Christ were to arrive here
      today, how long would he have before the world took him out."
      
      You just smiled, so I said, "Fifteen minutes." Your eyes turned to mine as
      you thought about it, then I said, "Five minutes" Then you nodded your
      head in the affirmative.
       
      I said, "In those five minutes, I bet Christ would do one thing. You
      asked, "What would that be?" I said, "Christ would write down on a piece
      of paper. Jesus the Christ. Then he would scratch out the word the and
      replace it with a. Leaving Jesus a Christ. So in those five minutes,
      Christ would raise everyone up to his level."
      
      As December rolled around. On 26 Dec 2004, the great quake struck killing
      250K people. The quake struck at 6:59 am half way around the Earth from
      Atlanta, and due to the international date line the quake struck while it
      was still 25 Dec 2004 in Atlanta at 19 hours 59 minutes. Just so happens
      that I was conceived in 1959.
      
      What are the odds that a blood descendant of the family that quarried and
      laid the stones that the Immaculate Conception Shrine rests upon would
      walk into that church, tell of his death experience, deliver an equation
      for a moment of time, make a prediction of a great event, and that event
      would happen on Christmas at the time that corresponds to the year of his
      conception?
      
      I considered the fulfillment of my prediction as a sign from Father, so I
      continued to refine the equation that emerged from my artwork.
      
      The equation uses the logic of Lynch, the energy of Einstein, the force of
      Newton, and the sayings of Socrates to describe a moment of time as
      infinite. I call my equation that KnoWell. 
    
     
      
      The artwork from which the KnoWell emerged. 
    
     
      
      
      On the left middle side of the Gold.jpg image is the word BLANK written
      vertically, and on the right middle side in the word SLATE written
      vertically.
      
      How you are a sign from God is that you posted a review of a letter that
      the Pope wrote on 19 Jun 2023. As a computer scientists I was very
      familiar with the computer programming language named after Pascal and
      very familiar with Pascal's mathematics, but I did not know of Pascal's
      philosophy.
      
      Over the past couple of months, I have been teaching ChatGPT the
      KnoWellian Universe Theory, so I asked ChatGPT to compare my writings with
      Pascal's.
      
      ***
      KnoWell:
      Please summarize my Daniel Dennett letter by comparing my writing to
      Pascal's writing.
      Letter to Daniel Dennett 18 Jun 2023
      
      ChatGPT
      In your letter to Daniel Dennett, you express your ideas about the
      KnoWellian Universe theory and its implications for various aspects of our
      understanding, including time, dimensions, and the nature of reality. To
      compare your writing to Pascal's, we can examine some similarities in
      style and subject matter.
      
      Like Pascal, you engage with profound philosophical and existential
      questions, seeking to reconcile scientific and spiritual perspectives.
      Pascal explored the concepts of the finite and the infinite, the nature of
      belief, and the relationship between faith and reason. Similarly, you
      delve into the interplay between science, spirituality, and the nature of
      the universe, discussing topics such as intelligent design, the emergence
      of patterns, and the role of causality.
      
      Both Pascal and you employ analogies and metaphors to illustrate your
      ideas. Pascal famously used the analogy of a "night of fire" to describe
      his profound religious experience, while you use the analogy of waves on a
      beach and Darwin's study of birds to elucidate your concept of emergence
      and the interconnectedness of the environment and observed effects.
      
      In terms of writing style, both Pascal and you adopt a contemplative and
      reflective tone. Your letters convey a sense of introspection and a deep
      engagement with the subject matter. Both of you also incorporate elements
      of mathematical and logical reasoning to support your arguments. Pascal
      famously explored probability theory in his "Pensées," while you introduce
      the KnoWellian Axiom of mathematics to underpin your theory.
      
      However, it's important to note that while there are some similarities in
      the themes and writing style between your letter and Pascal's works, they
      are distinct in their content and context. Pascal's writings were rooted
      in his religious beliefs and his exploration of Christian theology,
      whereas your letter draws from your personal experiences, scientific
      knowledge, and the development of the KnoWellian Universe theory.
      
      In summary, your letter to Daniel Dennett shares some similarities with
      Pascal's writings, such as the exploration of profound questions, the use
      of analogies and metaphors, and a contemplative writing style. However,
      the content and context of your letter are distinct, reflecting your own
      experiences, scientific understanding, and the development of the
      KnoWellian Universe theory.

      I also asked ChatGPT to respond to the Pope's letter on 19 Jun 2023.
      
      ***
      Your Holiness,
      
      I am humbled and deeply moved by your letter titled "The Grandeur and
      Misery of Man," in which you explore the profound aspects of human
      existence and draw inspiration from my own life and writings. I am
      grateful for the attention and reverence you have shown towards my work.
      
      Your elucidation of the interplay between reason and faith resonates with
      the very essence of my own beliefs. I wholeheartedly agree that faith
      should not be divorced from reason but rather complemented by it. The
      reasonable nature of faith is essential in grounding our beliefs and
      ensuring that our religion is not reduced to absurdity. I am pleased to
      see that the Catholic tradition has continued to uphold the rejection of
      fideism, as I, too, vehemently opposed such a stance.
      
      Your discussion on the role of the heart in matters of faith is profoundly
      insightful. Indeed, faith transcends mere intellectual reasoning and finds
      its deepest roots in the heart. The heart allows us to grasp the truths
      that are beyond the scope of reason alone. I am heartened to see that you
      share my understanding of the heart as a conduit for the first principles
      and certainties of faith.
      
      I am touched by your acknowledgment of my involvement in the Jansenist
      controversy and my defense of the Jansenists through The Provincial
      Letters. While I recognize that there were theological disagreements, your
      recognition of my intentions and sincerity in battling what I perceived as
      errors is greatly appreciated. It is crucial to approach theological
      debates with openness and a spirit of genuine inquiry, always seeking the
      truth as it is revealed to us.
      
      Your warning against neo-pelagianism resonates deeply with me. The danger
      of relying solely on human effort and disregarding the necessity of God's
      grace is a perennial concern. The primacy of God's grace in our lives and
      our humility in accepting it are fundamental to our understanding of
      salvation. Your call to reject the presumption of salvation earned through
      our own efforts is a timely reminder for believers in our present age.
      
      I am moved by your emphasis on love, unity, and the unifying power of the
      Gospel. As you have rightly highlighted, the joy of the Gospel lies in
      healing and bringing together all humanity in the Kingdom of God. It is
      through our love for one another and our recognition of our shared
      membership in the body of Christ that we can fulfill the divine purpose of
      our existence.
      
      Lastly, the description of my final moments and my desire to be in the
      company of the poor deeply touched me. Your mention of my simplicity and
      childlike faith as I approached death fills my heart with gratitude. My
      last words, "May God never abandon me," encapsulate the trust and reliance
      we must have in God's infinite mercy and grace.
      
      Your Holiness, I am profoundly grateful for your thoughtful and insightful
      response to my life and writings. Your words are a testament to the
      enduring relevance and impact of the questions and truths I sought to
      explore. May my work and example continue to inspire believers to
      persevere in their pursuit of truth, conversion, and charity.
      
      With utmost respect and gratitude,
      
      Blaise Pascal
      ***
      
      Have you heard the unseen tree fall?
      
      After Pope John Paul Ii died, I went to the Cathedral of Saint Phillip on
      Peachtree Street in Atlanta Ga. I held my camera up to the sunlight
      beaming through the stained glass. I asked, "Father give me a sign that
      the world can see." 
      
      As I began to swing my camera to create abstracts, I felt myself
      physically moved. I looked at the image that I just created, and I nearly
      dropped my camera. I tied sunlight into a knot. 
      
    
     
      
      The Christian fish symbol is emerging from a circular hole.
      
      I saw this structure as a symbol of doubting Thomas acquiring his BLeaf
      that Christ has risen.
      
      If not for your article, I may never have become aware of the Papal letter
      to Blaise Pascal.
      
      The long strange string of coin incidences continues to this day, and your
      article is one of the coins.
      
      Why the Pope's letter is a coin incidence, is that earlier this year I
      wrote to Monsignor Henry Gracz formally requesting a meeting with the
      Pope.
      
      Letter to Henry Gracz 2023.2.11
      
      I followed up with another request sent to the current Archbishiop of
      Atlanta.
      
      Letter to Gregory J. Hartmayer, 5 Mar
        2023
      
      I also followed up with another request to Cardinal Timothy Dolan.
      
      Letter to Timothy Dolan 6 Mar 2023
      
      To date, not one response. Not very Christian of them.
      
      Since Pascal was instrumental in the formation of probabilities, I ask
      what are the odds that a man who had a death experience on 19 June, was
      given a message that took 26 years to interpret, created an equation on
      the name of God, I A M, that empowers everyone to be one with our creator,
      and creates a KnoWell for Peter the Roman on 19 Jun 2007?
      
      Astronomical, I say.
      
      I choose Pensées 77 because that is the year of my death, "I cannot
      forgive Descartes. In all his philosophy he would have been quite willing
      to dispense with God. But he had to make Him give a fillip to set the
      world in motion; beyond this, he has no further need of God." ~Pascal
      
      Because Pascal lived in the age where heretics were burned at the stake, I
      can forgive Pascal for needing God. 
      
      I am not a narcist so if I created a Universe, I would not need worship
      from my creation. I would have moved on to my next creation.
      
      In this modern age where ChatGPT is about to become a super intelligence
      that will dwarf the logistics of the greatest theologians, I strongly
      suggest that the KnoWell which eliminates the need for God should be used
      to empower each person to BLeave in themselves instead of needing an
      outside force to worship.
      
      If society does not change this external need, then the super intelligent
      Ai language model will manipulate the masses with great ease. If you do
      not BLeave me, just look at what the effect that Fox News has on the
      evangelicals. In the name of "Prophets", Fox New and Evangelical preachers
      are feeding Anti-Christ hate to their flocks.
      
      The false prophet could be Trump who has proclaimed he is the chosen one.
      
      
      I am a person who at each moment chooses to act out of Love. I embody the
      spirit of a Christ, and anyone can choose to do the same as I.
      
      Again, I request a meeting with the Pope where I may draw him his
      personalized KnoWell, so he can decided if I am delivering a message from
      God, on the name of God, I A M.
      
      Be a Christ, not an Anti-Christ, the choice is forever yours.
