I would venture to say that many posters here are psychopaths. I would also venture further and say that many allusions to empathic intuition is a projection of this psychopathy.

how to tell? its when intentions, motives and actions don't line up.

empathy rarely seeks credit or is braggadocious, psychopathy seems to thrive on it. psychopathy often finds it advantageous to model empathic behavior as a means of acceptance.

intuition is a means of discernment. it sees things for what they are. false intuition sees things that only support their own intentions and dismiss what does not.

psychopaths believes in achievement of a goal at any cost except themselves.

Divine missions do not allow wayward behavior and if one believes it does, redemption is often paid for at a very high cost.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 54813749


wow, excellent post.

I disagree with the last statement though. Probably semantics, but wayward behavior can be debated as to what that means wholly dependant on the culturedefining it. Eventually, this allows it to be placed into any context.

The Engineer Who Said The Ark Of The Covenant Was A Giant Capacitor

Among the many lessons to be found in the Bible, prominent among them is "Look, but don't touch." When an Israelite named Uzzah laid hands upon the Ark of The Covenant, he was struck down by God. But, in 1933, an engineering professor theorized that the real cause of death was 10,000 volts of static electricity.

According to an article that appeared in the March 5th, 1933 edition of the Chicago Daily Tribune, Frederick Rogers, the Dean of the Department of Engineering at the Lewis Institute of Technology, conducted a careful study of the construction of the Ark as described in the Bible, and concluded that its design matched a perfectly constructed simple electric condenser:.....................

Warning, high voltage: scientists solve mysteries of electric fish

Scientists have wondered about how these fish first acquired electric powers and how this characteristic emerged six times in groups not closely related to one another.

"Electric organs start out their lives as muscle precursor cells. Through a series of developmental steps, they become larger, more electrically excitable and lose their ability to contract," Gallant said.

All muscle cells have electrical potential because any muscle contraction releases a small amount of voltage. Certain fish exploited that by transforming ordinary muscle cells into a larger type of cell called an electrocyte that generates vastly higher voltages. The electric organ is made of these cells.

"Each electric organ cell makes only a small voltage, similar in magnitude to our own muscles. The secret of electric organs is that the cells are aligned in stacks and electrically insulated so that the voltages add like batteries in a series," University of Texas neuroscience professor Harold Zakon said.

oh
is the snake we see the eel (el) that prompted the notion of snakes to be seen electrically
 Quoting: aether


The Nile fish was well known to the ancient Egyptians. Stories say the Egyptians used this type of catfish when treating some nervous diseases.[citation needed] They would use only smaller fish, as a large fish may generate an electric shock from 300 to 400 volts. The Egyptians have depicted the fish in their mural paintings and elsewhere; the first known depiction of an electric catfish is on a slate palette of the predynastic Egyptian ruler, Narmer, about 3100 BC. It was suitably called "angry catfish" in ancient egyptian.

An account of its electric properties was given by an Arab physician of the 12th century; then as now, the fish was known by the suggestive name of raad, abo el raash,el raad or raash, which means "thunder" (literally "trembler" or "shaker").

Though the shock an electric catfish can generate is not known to be fatal to humans, the catfish does use its electricity as a weapon to ward off predators or to kill its prey.

if true, moses being a member of the royal court was undoubtedly privileged to the technology available at that time.

but what was its purpose? at a later date the Ark was used to select which tribe would lead the Israelites. twelve withered almond branches were designated and marked one for each tribe. it was prophesied that the branch that recovered and sprouted once again would designate which tribe as the ruling priestly class.

so maybe the egyptian looked upon the electrical technology in the ark as containing some type of life giving properties. the spark of life sort of thing.

the pharaoh' sarcophaguses maintained the same structure as the Ark of the Convenant.

Seeing it essentially 'floating', makes sense that is would be suspended in liquid.

It also looks heavy and is being support by a pillar. What would be the the purpose? Light? Or charging something? Electric shock?

The electric shock that could cure a headache by releasing the body's most powerful painkillers

Scientists have managed to release the body's most powerful painkillers by running an electrical current through the brain.

The breakthrough has provided hope for sufferers of chronic migraine after it was found to reduce the pain of a headache by up to 37 per cent.

The technique, known as deep brain stimulation, or transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), alters the speed at which the brain's neurons fire. This, in turn, can relieve pain.

The painkillers released by the brain were endogenous opioids - the human body’s most powerful, euphoria-inducing painkillers that are very similar to opiates such as morphine.

 Quoting: Seer777


2. ELECTRIC EELS - SHOCK THERAPY

Although it looks like an eel, Electrophorus Electricus is actually a Knife Fish that is able to generate and deliver significant electric shocks of up to 600 volts.

The ancient Egyptians referred to an electric catfish, Malapterurus Electricus, as the "Thunderer of the Nile" which indicates that they had already made the connection to storm-related atmospheric discharges - lightning. According to various sources the Greeks and Romans were familiar with these creatures and may well have bred them in captivity. Historic records show that they were certainly farming many other types of exotic fish both for food and for amusement. Scribonus Largus, a physician at the court of the Roman Emperor Claudius (c.47AD), is reported to have written that these 'torpedo fish' could be used to treat a wide variety of ailments.

They were used to numb the feet of gout sufferers as well as those suffering from persistent headaches. If this is true then this is the first recorded use of shock therapy. As recently as 2009 doctors in Boston have been successfully experimenting with electric currents to block migraines.
