A Shapely and Handsome Fable, chapter 3

Shapely said, there is Design by God at work on Earth that we can see. His Timaeus remembers a day God spoke and people could hear. A capable She God there was too, an instructress and lover of wisdom, fond of delicate celestial warps.

On that day, people could hear, “You are not entirely immortal, yet you shall never be dissolved, nor become subdued to fatality of death”. We note, the human body is naturally mortal, thus it must be that bodily death is not death of all the person.

Shapely explains, all that has bounds is partible and falls apart, but the human soul has infinity and thus can live forever.

For delicate celestial warps, there has been rumor that some reckless earthlings tore those, acting against the Handsome warning that it was possible for the same thing to have the power of opposites, to be perpetual and destructible. Only nothing could be of opposite energies at one and the same time.

There have been some reckless earthling habits to make writs too. Today, the Timaeus text will claim God spoke to “celestial gods”, or be-ings as we explained in Chapter 1, whereas nobody would really talk to stars, planets, and moons, because they are not persons.

Some people said later, they didn’t believe God spoke ever at all. Next, a big misunderstanding began for the word “being”. Ancient people began using it for a human person on Earth, made god or semi-god persons, and only oceans did not become people.

We remember about the participle, be-ing, and that it may mean anything that was, is, or will be.

Handsome properly observed about Earth cosmos, that is, the outer space around the globe more or less — anything partible falls to pieces. For any cosmos to have perpetuity, it would require energies only an eternal be-ing could suffice. The bright side is here. Eternity is a must and thus certainly it has been.

It is not impossible that God spoke, only it wasn’t to stars and moons. God said, there were “three orders of mortals”. We interpret, plants, animals, and human beings, because only the last was of a potential for immortality. Ancient scribes probably couldn’t imagine existence without the body, so they changed the text.

In result, reincarnation or resurrection of the body has been on Earth for millennia, as the only idea for human life eternal. We say we know a language where pupa is not a word for a butterfly, and in eternity people might prefer to live without the contingency.

Arguments against immortality of the human soul have come with the human logic that says, what has a beginning, cannot be eternal. Eternity has no beginning or end. Here Shapely said, time was created together with the world.

If we compared plant life, just to visualize, flowers begin as buds, and they produce fruit. If there was fruit that could last forever, here we go: the bud had a beginning, but you get something eternal from it. People are obviously more complex than plants and this here is just an example, like for visuals about time.

There is another thing in Timaeus to cause reasonable doubt, on She God loving wisdom and war. Wars have been known not to get along with wisdom, and Frankish had the word werru for confusion.

■Αραιό-στημος (araio-stemos) is the Greek word for a fine or delicate warp, and we believe we can look at the night skies for the incredible, well, wrap too.

Handsome was curious if celestial bodies could be generated with their skies, or they would form within celestial extents only as these are.

Shapely said, three tier transitive generation could create some skies, because generative change is the most creative when transitive, provided it remains in habit with the True Being. He spoke as for celestial bodies.

Another mode of creating could have a thing become in a place, granting it an interval opposite to the True Being. Here Shapely favored procession to infinity for distance.

Some natures were as if “exempt from being” sometimes, added Shapely from observation of the skies. If they went into another world, there sure was a place for that change; but if it was into Non-Being they went, it was not only change, it was transition.

He added, if time and celestial skies were generated together, they might together become dissolved. Man, however, might cease own existence by own proper separation from being, but no human soul could be merely ceased.

Let us explain on the side of language facts, Non-Being is an idea that exists, therefore it has being. Transition into it does not mean non-existence. It is more of another side to being. To give a simplest of examples, movement with regard to axis y may retain object positioning with regard to x. As everybody knows, the mortal body would drop off. As not everybody believes, the soul would remain existent.

Well, and what happens next, once the soul is out of the body? ■Dante in translation by Longfellow says, “For the straight-forward pathway had been lost”. We do emphasize, there is the poetic license and literary works should not be taken too literal, but let us consider something did happen, and souls do not travel to the Other Side as before.

Philologue Taylor reports, Shapely spoke about some 6 thousand years before himself that “something” happened in Earth cosmos (■page 19, PDF 54). Units of measurements were not consistent in Antiquity, and texts have been changed also outside the Middle Ages, so we watched quite explanatory a movie, on ■how the pyramids were built, as if it was today. We do not envy the builders.

It is eight minutes today for light to get to Earth from the Sun, and it would be decades to get to any planet from Earth in a spaceship. Things are only not exactly as a toothpick through jelly. We remember, time is an interval. Did ancient Egyptians beam the skies?

End of Chapter 3.
