'Obligation' And Psycho-motive Energy

I know I said I was going to post something about the digital utility token... But I'm not.

Sure, sure it's all happening and the silver backing is going up and all of this; but don't worry about it. It's not what is important.

What is important is 'how many angels can dance on the head of a pin and what dance are they doing?' This is the question that, in 1453, when the 21-year-old Sultan Mehmed II attacked the main city of the Byzantine Empire and overthrew it, the local scholars and religious theologians were fully absorbed by.

Now well we don't really even scientifically have any widely-accepted clue as to what an 'angel' actually is and of course most scientists would laugh at the direction of inquiry anyway - but what I can say with some confidence, is that human being's psycho-motive energy fluctuates a lot and in the post-modern world in which we all do live now, such a large number of people complain of a lack of energy and that their time is at a premium that we are forced to consider all those 'conceptual spaces' in our way of life to see if there is something wrong with the structure of our lives, almost as if we might have sleep-walked into something rather tragic and now require to make our way back and out therefrom.

'Angel' in all religious texts and mainstream religions has the characteristic of something that, whilst normally invisible, can have impact on the physical realm in which we all actually live and of which we are obviously conscious. 

It is a word which, when stripped of a brand-name religious connotation, can easily mean some aspect of the mind that bridges between the sub-conscious, even the totally unconscious, and the openly conscious. Although by standard definition, it is also required to have intelligence; to be intelligent - an actual intelligent being.

As we embark on our Brave New World adventure in which we will all soon have humanoid 'strong AI' on display in front of our own blinking eyes, it is possibly time for us to consider how tall our minds are, how deep, how wide.

...When you have a feeling of obligation that you have to do something, automatically you will experience tiredness. Your bio-chemistry is telling you it doesn't approve and is not backing your plan for action. And action, is a key.

When you see great opposition, you superficially think that the levels of action required to overcome that opposition, is going to be equivalently great.

Sultan Mehmed II may have also thought so, or he might not have; I don't know. 
Almost invisible until imbued with light

I know that the reports are that when he entered into the Temple of Angels in Constantinople he was greeted by a 'vision' following which he refrained from defacing the inside of the temple - a thing he had previously purposed to do, in the mistaken belief that the depictions of 'gods' and 'goddesses' and 'angels' and other 'spiritual beings' in there were idolatrous images, against the express teaching of Mohammed. Which indeed, they were and still are.

So... You have by now all seen the last several video clips. So... How big are angels and how many did you count that you saw in those clips, especially the last one?

And when you next purpose to 'achieve' something of a physical material nature - say like making a lot of money - are you going to do it with the power of a bolt of lightning or several of them, or can you even think of something bigger and grander?
