In this discussion on conspiracies.win, I provided Greek original words from New Testament.

One of that ancient Greek word was "ἐξουσία" which is usually translated as "power" or "authority".

Something was strange about that Greek word when I pronounce it. You could articulate it as "exousia". And here comes strange thing. In Greek, "ἐξω"-"ekso"/"exo" is exactly "outer", "from outside" even "alien". And, suddenly, "ουσία"-"ousia" have distinct meaning too - "substance", "matter", "fabric" - physical matter, speaking shortly.

So, that "ἐξουσία", which is usually translated as just "power" or "authority", which have to be fought against by all good people as per Ephesians 6:12, is really a word consisting from two parts - "ἐξο"/"εξω" and "ουσία". It is "exomatter" literally, like in "exoplanets", "exobiology" and so on. And it is for some reason always translated as "power"/"authority"

"ἐξουσία" = "exotic physical matter" = "authority over people"

And good people should fight against this exomatter to not allow bad people own and use it.

Well, THAT is kind of things I account as really interesting. And it is right in plain sight for at least 2 thousand years. '

These people belong in pews, not in pulpits. The Internet is not helping them.

Who exactly do you mean by 'these people'?'

Seems pretty clear, in context

Your statement amounted to "be quiet and listen". Now you choose to not define who 'they' are. Were these statements meant to feel profound? '

I refer you to my previous comment, and request you to remind everyone before arguing with us that you are neurodivergent

neurodivergent

So just assume your end of the conversation is correct, while you label an individual a collective, and discredit them as not having a right to think (I must assume). I don't think I will do that. Kind of like how you can't answer a simple Question. Or even provide a clear reason for making a blanket statement in the first place.

I refer you to my current comment, and request that you remind everyone before LARP'ing, that your head contains nothing but horse manure.

A conversation under these paramilitary holds no value. And is only based on feelings. Or to say; You belong in the pews, not at the pulpits. '

Comrade, if you cannot see how correct my initial comment was, it is because it went over your head - not because it is beneath you

I note also you have not denied your autism here

I like your submitted posts. But your comments leave a lot to be desired. '
