54. Dominance of official atheism in Soviet Russia

Even in recent times, religious, mystical, esoteric, occult and similar literature was practically unavailable in Russia. Readers were abundantly treated to only one truth: “scientific-atheistic.” Nevertheless, Soviet society remained deeply religious - in style and way of thinking. The texts of the “classics of Marxism-Leninism” were the ultimate body of truth, a source of wisdom for any occasion. The Marxist-Leninist “scientific-atheistic worldview” was in fact one of the varieties of “left-hand religions” - the “religion of man-theism” - with its sacred texts, a staff of god-fighting priests, a bloody court of the Inquisition, an essentially satanic cult, inextricably linked with the system of unseen in the history of mass bloody human sacrifices, which were mainly ritual in nature.

Currently, much is written that Orthodoxy is being revived, since a stream of converts has poured into it - people who are now supposedly imbued with religious ideas, have seen spiritually and have come to the realization of God. In fact, it is still hardly possible to talk about a genuine revival of Orthodoxy. New converts in reality, for the most part, do not truly profess Orthodoxy.

Religious faith can only be truly deep among those who have their own spiritual, or, to put it scientifically, “parapsychological” experience and therefore know absolutely definitely that the heavenly world really exists. However, for a person who grew up in an atheistic environment, all channels of spiritual perception are, as it were, tightly “clogged” and he does not and cannot have any not only conscious spiritual experience, but even a subconscious perception of the heavenly world. Many "new converts" do not bother with any spiritual pursuits and bring with them to church the culture of imitation that they have internalized in society. As a result, the church is undermined from within by a huge number of people who have externally joined it, but have not acquired genuine religious faith. Under the guise of “revival,” the collapse of the Orthodox religion may occur—Orthodoxy may be vulgarized in the same way that “classical Marxism” was vulgarized in Russia at one time.

One can treat religion in general and Orthodoxy in particular differently, but one should not forget that in all modern civilizations it is religions that form the conceptual basis of spiritual life, shape and mediate the basic system of values.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Random news from the Archive microscopic diamond ring 22.10.2008 Australian physicists from the University of Melbourne have created the world's smallest diamond ring. Its diameter is 5 micrometers and its thickness is 300 nanometers. It's just an annular strip of pure synthetic diamond. The ring was not made for the sake of a record: such diamond parts in quantum computers of the near future will allow individual photons to be controlled. Quantum computers will work thousands of times faster than modern ones.
