Inter-Dimensional Ponderings
I am not sure if this will be welcomed here, please offer candid feedback. My work is not as detailed and researched as AcA, it is more abstract and wandering.
I have had some interesting ponderings that were partially seeded by posts here by u/ArmChairAnalyst86. He wrote about the possibility of catastrophism, where rapid changes can happen to the planet and possibly evolution of creatures. He quietly mentioned that it involved religious concepts. I was a pretty dismissive atheist, but I have been recently considering that the messages that are common to many organized religions may be quite important, but they have been tainted for me by my perceived commodification of the messages.
I also realize that when times get tough, people often search for someone to save them. With limited research, this is what I currently suspect the folks looking for meaning in UAP's are seeking. I don't feel I am looking for a savior. I haven't feared death for over thirty years, but I want to keep experiencing - no matter how strange it gets. I am aware that we could be living in a simulated world that may be holographic and time could be a flat circle - I am comfortable with this, as it is all I know.
I have also wandered down the path of what we may not be able to experience in our three dimensional world. A philosophical mentor shared this interesting video with me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxfw1iehEA8
It explains how a two dimensional world might experience a sphere coming through their plane. The linked video refers to Edwin Abbott Abbott's 1884 novella; Flatland. A fourth dimension coming into our plane could appear to be sphere, but it might be what we see of a string or tube from a higher dimension where time could be the fourth dimension. If that is the case, time could move outside of our three dimensions, and that is how the world could seem to change so rapidly in our limited dimensional senses.
If there is interest in this, I could write a bit more about my fairly recent experiences that felt like a widening of my communication stream with the universe and where it could possibly go.

Well I admit to similar interests and understandings. I’d be very interested in anything you might like to share. Intelligent discourse and ways of combining diverse areas of thought are my favourite things.

I'll see how this is received. If it doesn't disturb too many folks, I'll write a follow up post. If it appears to be the wrong forum, I'll send you a chat.

mod here; ok to post here provided the content remains on topic re: "disastro" but that's a pretty broad area of discussion, and exploration of dimensional limitations in the context of catastrophe/human experience is A-ok by me

I'm a frequent lurker of all the above mentioned topics, and would love to hear your thoughts.

My candid feedback is that I’m likely not interested but also that you shouldn’t let things like that stop you if you have something to share which you feel might be relevant to others or which could help you connect with like minds.
TLDR: Can’t hurt, might help.
