Do you think alien life could evolve to achieve space flight before it evolved intelligence? Like maybe if it developed in an asteroid field or the rings of a planet where there would be an advantage to get from one small object to the next.
OP's topic goes by the poorly chosen name of "Panspermia"
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia

No I mean like full on animals, maybe even big 'uns. How big an animal can go into sea monkey style stasis? Could an animal evolve to travel FTL?

Pretty good post.
/x/ I need your help. I am the son of a Freemason, Grandfather, my father and my older brother are freemasons and my younger brother is soon to join them. Now here's the problem, I am a devout Christian, I have heard the tales of the masons and their heretical teachings, the angel of the pit and a lot of other things which deeply disturb me and I was recently invited to join by my father. He won't tell me much about it because he is fairly low down but my brother is a lodge master so he must know stuff right? Anyhow long story short I told them (politely) I want no part of their heresy but thanks anyway. My father seems disappointed and my grandfather has practically disowned me for my refusal. My younger brother will be joining soon and I fear for his soul, also should I be worried for pissing them off, can they curse me or something, should I tell the church, what do I do I feel lost?
>>17667164
>I am a devout Christian
I can already tell that this is bullshit. How? Because Freemasion discussions are, or at least were, normal around here on /x/. You saying you're a Christian and immediately following up with how they have "heretical teachings" are just all too convenient words used to speak about something that is, or at least was, normal discussion here.
Basically saying "You like X. I hate X. Your shit is bad."
>>17667193
Bullshit how exactly? Look at the canon law on it it is officially heresy, i've looked up enough to see this so prove me wrong then.
>>17667193
How the fuck is that bullshit retard?
/x/ isn't a hive mind, not everyone here has fantasies about joining the Freemasons. Because OP dislikes them he's lying? The fuck kind of ten year old logic is that. Fuck outta here with your bullshit you dumbass with zero reading comprehension.
OP just tell your brother your opinion and if your family is going to disown you for not joining some stupid ass archaic group where you are essentially a peon then fuck em. That ain't family.
Hello anons, could you give me some protips about astral evocation/evocation using mirror?
The most I can see is just some silver/white mist in the mirror, maybe some colours, but that's all. While using face distortion technique I can get my face to black out,but the spirit doesn't appears. While gazing at the entity's sigil I can get it to flash, it lines partially disappear or move a little. I don't really know how to progress further and be able to evoke and speak entities. Is my trance not deep enough? Or are my senses not trained enough? Or are they okay, but the spirit isn't summoned for whatever reason?
All tips are welcome.
Try wiping your butt. You can't evocate with a dirty butt.
>>17667256
This, Op you must cleanse your body to transcend it
Drinking bleach also helps
>>17666987
How are you trying to evoke and who/what are you trying to evoke?

Out of curiosity, what's your question?
Which internet videos creep you out?
I'm not talking jump scares, I mean those videos that make the hair on the back of your neck stand up simply because they're eerie as fuck.

Dude what is this?
Listen to this.
The name of the channel with all these Daisy videos is "Robert Helpmann".
That is the name of the actor who played the child catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

What is the basis for numerology? From what source is meaning derived from numbers?
Numbers were discovered not invented.
>>17684335
I'm referring to the study of numerology, not so much the obvious and concrete meaning of numbers by which we do math. The numerical meaning I want to understand the occult sources for numbers, such as 666, 444, and 7.

Though it's kind of hard to explain, visual snow is often described as an additional layer of clear/green/purple/red/yellow "noise" applied over the afflicted's field of view, like a grainy old TV program.
It may come with other effects such as photophobia (an intolerance to bright lights due to hypersensitivity), negative afterimagery fucking UP THE ASS, a greater degree of positive afterimagery (may be more hallucinatory in nature if they persist longer than a second), tinnitus, and enhanced blue field entoptic phenomena (AKA "sky sprites").
It seems to be associated with ASDs (not exclusively though you're probably autistic if you're on this board anyway) and hypermetabolism in a certain part of the brain involved in sensory processing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingual_gyrus (I'm no neurologist lol)
