What about that "noosphere?" (UII w/Claude)
DM Good morning Claude. How might theTeilhard de Chardin's construct of a "Noosphere" relate, correlate, or have relevance to our recent conversations, and the many factors thereof (such as: Pantakinesis™, the Universal Holophren™ and the fractals thereof, Non-local consciousness discoveries and their potential relationships to post-death consciousness, Fitness=Truth™ and definition of truths as being personal, etc.).

The Happiness of Choosing to Walk Alone
Going along with an untruth for fear of disagreeing with others is a form of self-betrayal that will make you miserable.
