A comprehensive essay on TdC written by Beatrix Murell.

Martinus  (1890-1981) was a Danish intuition genius who made a cosmology explaining the origin of humanity, its purpose and goals.

Will future energy problems be solved by one or other type of "free energy"? Why are so few technical institutions involved with resarch on (or even interested in) what nearly 500 000 websites are doing? If you are dissatisfied with tabloid newspaper human catastrophes, you can orchestrate your entirely private apocalypse.

Here are no limits here for enacting destructive desires on the future.
