Here is (a little bit edited) my email reply to a person ### ###:
There is a very straightforward explanation, what are stamps on the forehead and on the right hand: PhD and hand-working occupations certificates.
Thus Apocalypse is very clear in saying that everybody who is on the side of PhDs will go to the hell.
Why are PhD blamed so badly? I think, it is because of me: I discovered “ordered semigroup actions” (OSA) and some related things. For silly reasons like too big size of the text, I didn’t (yet) succeeded to publish anything on this topic (except of a Russian publication, that does not count, because it requires knowledge of Russian to buy the file). OSA are as important as “groups” (discovered by Galois in 19 century); in other words, OSA is >1/2 of world economy. PhD unjustly (supported by the government) compete with publication of OSA, thus each PhD pushing world economy down. (OSA is especially important as a missing component: a missing component is more important than published components. For example, a cup of water costs a billion dollars in wilderness, because it is missing.) So, God is angry at PhDs.
You are on path to the hell. You chose a Catholic mark.
I only interview people who have PhDs and/are currently earning a PhD. I also only choose papers or books that are discussed in academic literature. Lastly, I choose topics that are of interest to me and of interest to my viewers.
Creating a new religion doesn’t require rejecting the past but creatively reworking the religion of predecessors. Here’s my new religion, building upon Christianity (it seems no one before me has managed to truly rework Christianity, rather than just rejecting or slightly modifying it):
Jesus taught, “Whoever saves their soul in this world will lose it in eternal life, but whoever loses their soul for my sake and the gospel will save it.” Here’s the explanation: the soul in this world is the electrical activity of the brain, while the soul in eternity is the radio waves emitted by the brain (Russian scientists recently demonstrated that the brain does emit them) and living in the cosmos. Now, the hidden meaning of Jesus’ teaching becomes clear: he gave his disciples commandments that would provoke people’s anger, allowing them to receive compensation for that anger in God’s judgment. For example, a Christian is beaten on the head for the gospel and becomes a rapist maniac (my experience shows this can happen): they’ve lost their soul in this world, thus saving their soul for eternal life (i.e., receiving a new soul as compensation).
The catch is that once you understand what I’ve discovered, provoking people’s anger for compensation no longer works: if you keep doing it, you’re deliberately harming not only yourself but others too. This ends the effect of Jesus’ commandments—Christianity itself.
And I, for making this discovery, will be transformed into a great prophet—one of the two witnesses of the Apocalypse. I’ll first be made sinless, then taken to heaven, not in a fiery chariot, but in the coolest transport—a time machine—and I’ll become the archangel Gabriel, the ancestor of all gods and the father (through cloning) of Jesus.
What about the others? I discovered the operations of partially ordered semigroups, but the vile PhDs refused to publish it. Then God explained to me that the “mark on the forehead” in the Apocalypse is a PhD or academic degree. This means everyone siding with the PhDs will end up in hell.
Conflict of interest. I personally benefit from donations to Salaries Science as the main (and currently the only) project’s developer.
Abstract. I claim that holding an academic degree without compensation to the society (such as from your “degreed” salary) is a “grave” sin warranting hell, based mainly on the “stamp on the forehead” in the Revelation of John. Academic degree is considered as a theft from biblical positions.
Keywords: Apocalypse, mark of the beast, stamp of the beast, academic degree, science degree, scientific degree, salvation, Christian libertarianism, Libertarian Christianity.
Introduction
Like other Christians, I tried to guess what the “stamp on the forehead” from Rev. 13:16 may mean. Once I however was struck by what seems the most proper understanding: “forehead” here means what is the stamp is for: the mind located in forehead, that is the stamp is a certification of the mind, the higher education degree. And the other stamp in the same verse is on a hand, that is the stamp of hand-working skills that a human has.
This also explains some of the hidden sense after (Rev. 13:17) “And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” This simply means that people having no either higher education or finished high school (mark on the hand) will have no legal capacity.
Thus Apocalypse has a strong stance against scientific and other degrees, notably anti-PhD stance.
In the rest of this article I explain how this can be interpreted in context of the rest of the Bible, the modern status of the science, and author’s personal experiences.
Scientific Degree Is a Marking of People
Not far from the mainstream understanding of Rev. 13, I proclaim that a scientific degree is marking of people, splitting to “castes” with different rights. Christianity must be against such castes.
(1Jn. 2:2) “And he is the propitiation… for the sins of the whole world”. A possible translation is whole world, rather than entire world. For people for whom the world is divided into castes (not whole), there is no propitiation for the sins, that is they go to the hell.
Scientific Degree As a Theft
Scientific degrees foster inequality: If somebody is in a position (for external to his mind occurrences such as living nearer to a university) to receive a scientific degree more easily than another one, who received the degree is in a dishonest economical advantage over another one. Such an advantage is considered a theft in context of Rev. 13. (1Cor. 6:10) “… thieves… shall [not] inherit the kingdom of God.” Theft warrants hell. Therefore a scientific degree (especially PhD) without proper measures warrants hell. This is in full accordance with (Rev. 14:9-11) “9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb”.
Short note: They will be in presence of the Son (“the Lamb”) and holy angels, but forever will lose presence of the Father.
Another thing stolen by scientific degree holders is glory of a discovery: The author discovered an important mathematical object, ordered semigroup actions, but failed to publish it as a dissertation, because of holding no Bachelor or Masters degree necessary to put forth a claim for PhD. Thus inequality spreads not only to money, but to science itself, having some parts of science derailed and despised by this world. Because ordered semigroup actions (and ordered semicategory actions) are exceedingly important [1], it makes derailing of the most of future science, what is essentially theft of about $50 trillion. Everybody in academia participates in this theft (from yourself).
If you are told that you are evil, you can change, and you don’t, you are going to the hell: (He. 10:26-27) “For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.”
Can anything be done by a scientific degree holder to avoid the hell for himself/herself? If you were a thief but returned the money, you are no more a thief. So, your debt is to return the money to the system of science. How to do this? I know the one best way: Donate to the project Salaries Science [2], that is committed to finance science differently (and without checking degrees). By regular donations you return your debt you hold to science.
You may say: “But I donate to a church.” Isn’t returning the debt to another company than you hold a debt to a silly idea? Accordingly the teaching of the Bible, you must return the debt to one you have a debt to. So, if you hold a debt (by holding a scientific degree) to the system of science, and I know no other way to return the debt than to start financing Salaries Science project.
If you don’t, you are guaranteed to hell, because you sin wilfully.
This is not indulgence
The above may be perceived as similar to indulgence. But it is not, because the Catholic indulgence was assumed atonement of any kinds of sin for money, and this is for a special kind of sin, theft. Theft is readily atoned by returning the money to the object of the crime.
The beast
The stamp on the forehead is called the stamp of the beast, a symbol of stupidity. Moreover, (Rev. 14:10) “… The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation…” Wine signifies stupidity, because a human who drank wine becomes stupid. This is especially true for wine poured out without mixture.
This means that the “brain” of this world, the academy is considered stupid by God. One example of such stupidity is missingness of ordered semigroup actions in scientific databases, due to degree separation process.
Author’s personal experience
I was deprieved of a scientific degree because of my discrimination as a Protestant in Russia. I don’t want to tell here the details, because it is somehow related to a depth knowledge and may tempt Christians.
But, thanks God, I didn’t become this kind of a thief and gained experience undoubtfully showing that academia is evil and that the world needs Salaries Science project.
Conclusion
Holding scientific degree is a theft accordingly teachings of the Bible and is punished by the hell, if not properly atoned. The suggested way of atonement is to pay regular donations to Salaries Science project [2].
Official science competes with publication of ordered semigroup actions, which like water in desert are more important than everything other thanks to their missingness in scientific databases. Holders of scientific degrees are evil (“stamp in forehead”), therefore, if they do not support the “salaries science” https://bit.ly/3WJhti2 #science
If you are told that you are evil, you can change, and you don’t, you are going to the hell: He. 10:26-27. You should use your “degreed” salary for salaries science https://bit.ly/3WJhti2 or you are condemned for holding a scientific degree against God. #sin #hell
You can stay in the system, but you must be against the system. If you are for (your) scientific degree, it is a “seal on the forehead” from the Apocalypse and you are guaranteed #hell. Support science without degrees https://bit.ly/3WJhti2 – #Apocalypse
Life’s challenges often remind us of our limitations and our need for divine support. When facing trials, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and to question our faith. Yet, it’s precisely in these moments that praising God becomes most meaningful and transformative.
Here are ten reasons why praising God in difficult times can be a source of strength and solace:
1. God’s Unchanging Nature
God remains a constant rock amidst life’s chaos. His promises are steadfast and true, providing us with security and reassurance that He is always faithful.

Praising God helps us focus on our blessings rather than our problems. Gratitude reduces stress and fosters a positive outlook, helping us navigate difficulties with resilience.
3. Strength and Comfort in God’s Presence
Worship draws us closer to God, offering comfort and strength. Like David and Paul in the Bible, we find emotional and spiritual support through praise, easing our burdens and fortifying our spirits.
4. Reminding Ourselves of God’s Past Faithfulness
Reflecting on God’s past acts of faithfulness can reassure us of His continued support. Biblical stories, like the Israelites’ deliverance from Egypt, serve as powerful reminders of God’s enduring faithfulness.
5. Building Resilience and Hope
Praise builds resilience and instills hope, reinforcing our trust in God’s plan. It helps us maintain a hopeful outlook and persevere through life’s toughest battles.
6. Spiritual Warfare and Victory
Praise is a powerful tool in spiritual warfare. Biblical accounts, such as Jehoshaphat’s victory through worship, illustrate how praise can lead to triumph over challenges and adversities.
7. Community and Shared Strength
Worshiping with others strengthens our faith and provides mutual encouragement. Shared worship experiences build a support network, reminding us that we are not alone in our struggles.
8. Acknowledging God’s Sovereignty
Praising God acknowledges His control over every situation. Trusting in His plan and surrendering to His will brings peace and helps us see our struggles as part of a larger, divine picture.
9. Deepening Our Relationship with God
Praise deepens our intimacy with God, fostering a closer relationship. Regular worship enhances our spiritual lives, making our bond with God stronger and more profound.
10. Transformation Through Worship
Worship transforms our hearts and minds, shifting our perspective and invigorating our faith. It helps us handle challenges with a renewed and resilient outlook, grounded in God’s love.
Practical Ways to Praise God in Difficult Times
Incorporate praise into your daily life with practical steps such as singing worship songs, praying, reading scripture, and journaling gratitude. Regular worship, alone or with others, helps maintain a spirit of praise amidst trials.
The Importance of Praising God During Hardships
In tough times, praise acts as a lifeline, redirecting our focus from despair to hope. Worship shifts our perspective, helping us connect with a deeper sense of peace and purpose. It reminds us of God’s enduring presence and unwavering love, offering stability and hope.
In Summary
Praising God during difficult times offers stability, comfort, and resilience. By focusing on God’s unchanging nature and acknowledging His sovereignty, we deepen our relationship with Him and transform our outlook. Share your experiences of praising God during tough times.

Trusting God is crucial for a vibrant spiritual life. It involves developing a deep, enduring relationship with Him, built on faith and confidence in His plans. Yet, there are signs that we might not be fully trusting God, which can affect our spiritual well-being. Recognizing these signs is the first step towards fostering a stronger, more trusting relationship with God.
In this post, we’ll explore ten clear indicators of a lack of trust in God and offer practical steps to make positive changes. Let’s dive in.
1. Constant Worry and Anxiety
Description: Worry and anxiety often signal a lack of trust in God. Persistent worry about finances or health can indicate that we are not fully relying on God’s promises for provision and protection.
How to Change: Combat worry through faith by praying regularly and meditating on scriptures that affirm God’s faithfulness. Philippians 4:6-7 encourages presenting our requests to God with thanksgiving, promising peace that surpasses understanding.
2. Difficulty Letting Go of Control
Description: Struggling to relinquish control often reflects a lack of trust in God’s sovereignty. If you find yourself meticulously planning every detail of your life, it might indicate fear that God’s plan won’t align with yours.
How to Change: Practice surrendering control through prayer and reflection. Proverbs 3:5-6 advises trusting in the Lord with all your heart and not leaning on your own understanding. Embracing this can help you trust in His guidance.
3. Lack of Prayer and Spiritual Connection
Description: A weakened prayer life may suggest a lack of trust in God’s guidance and support. If you’re not seeking God in prayer, it may reflect a belief that you can manage things on your own.
How to Change: Revitalize your prayer life by dedicating time each day for prayer and reflection. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 encourages us to pray continuously, reinforcing the importance of turning to God in all matters.
4. Dependence on Material Possessions
Description: Relying heavily on material possessions for security and happiness can signal a lack of trust in God’s provision. If accumulating wealth becomes a priority, it might replace your trust in God’s abundance.
How to Change: Focus on spiritual fulfillment rather than material wealth. Matthew 6:19-21 reminds us to store treasures in heaven, emphasizing the eternal value of spiritual over material wealth.
5. Persistent Doubt and Uncertainty
Description: Doubt undermines trust in God’s promises. Constant questioning of God’s plans or His ability to fulfill promises indicates wavering faith.
How to Change: Strengthen your faith by immersing yourself in scripture and prayer. Romans 10:17 states that faith comes by hearing the word of God, so regular Bible study and prayer can reinforce trust in His faithfulness.
6. Resistance to Change and Growth
Description: Fear of change can indicate a lack of confidence in God’s plan for your growth. Resistance to change often means not trusting in His plan for your development.
How to Change: Embrace change as an opportunity for spiritual growth. Jeremiah 29:11 reassures us that God has plans to prosper us and give us hope. Trusting in His guidance can help you navigate transitions.
7. Lack of Gratitude and Thankfulness
Description: Ingratitude reflects a failure to recognize God’s blessings. When you don’t practice gratitude, you might overlook the ways God cares for you, weakening your trust in His goodness.
How to Change: Cultivate gratitude by daily reflecting on and giving thanks for God’s blessings. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 encourages giving thanks in all circumstances, which strengthens trust in God.
8. Reliance on Human Wisdom Over God’s Word
Description: Prioritizing human wisdom over divine guidance can indicate a lack of trust in God’s sovereignty. Valuing worldly advice more than scriptural truths shows a lack of faith in God’s wisdom.
How to Change: Align your beliefs with scripture by prioritizing God’s word. Proverbs 3:7 advises not to be wise in your own eyes but to fear the Lord. Seeking wisdom through the Bible can realign your trust.
9. Resistance to Surrendering to God’s Will
Description: Resisting surrendering to God’s will shows reluctance to trust His plan. This resistance reveals a lack of confidence in His knowledge and intentions for your life.
How to Change: Embrace surrender by engaging in prayer and specific acts of surrender, such as writing down your worries and offering them to God. Romans 12:1-2 encourages offering ourselves as living sacrifices, reflecting trust in His plan.
10. Neglecting to Seek God in Times of Trouble
Description: Neglecting to seek God during difficult times reveals a lack of trust in His comfort and provision. Turning to other sources for solutions can mean missing out on the peace and strength God offers.
How to Change: Make it a habit to seek God in all circumstances. Psalm 34:17 assures us that the Lord hears the righteous and delivers them from troubles. Regular prayer, scripture reading, and community support can help you turn to God first during challenges.
In Summary
These ten signs can help identify areas where trust in God may be lacking. By implementing the practical steps provided, you can deepen your relationship with God and experience the peace and fulfillment that come from a strong faith in His promises. Reflect on these aspects in your own life, commit to growing in trust, and embrace the spiritual benefits that follow.

For centuries, humans have sought something beyond the physical world—a connection with God. This quest, central to many spiritual traditions, represents a deep desire for meaning. Whether seen as a personal deity, a universal force, or the essence of reality, the concept of God has driven humanity’s search for purpose.
This guide explores the diverse ways of seeking God, offering a flexible framework to help you cultivate a personal connection with the divine.
What is Seeking God?
Seeking God goes beyond adopting beliefs or doctrines. It’s a profound yearning to connect with something greater than ourselves. Different traditions offer varied interpretations of God—some view God as a personal being, while others see God as an impersonal force or universal consciousness. Regardless of the interpretation, seeking God is about aligning oneself with this greater reality.
Why Seek God?
The pursuit of God can bring inner peace, grounding us amidst life’s chaos. It provides meaning and purpose, offering a framework for understanding our existence. Seeking God can guide our actions, inspire us to contribute positively, and help us navigate life’s challenges with resilience.
Practical Steps for Seeking God
Developing a daily spiritual practice is key. Whether through meditation, prayer, or time in nature, these practices help deepen our connection with the divine. Meditation quiets the mind, while prayer fosters communication with the divine. Nature can inspire awe and wonder, offering glimpses of the divine in creation.
Challenges in Seeking God
The journey of seeking God is not without obstacles. Doubt and skepticism are natural, often prompting deeper exploration. Distractions and setbacks may occur, but they can also strengthen our commitment. Periods of feeling lost or disconnected are part of the journey and can lead to growth and re-evaluation.
Finding God in Everyday Life
Seeking God isn’t limited to sacred spaces or rituals. Everyday moments—a shared meal, a sunrise, or a quiet night—can become doorways to the divine. Interactions with others, whether harmonious or challenging, offer opportunities to experience and express divine qualities like love, compassion, and forgiveness.
The Role of Faith and Belief
Faith is crucial in seeking God. It guides us through uncertainty and can be nurtured within religious traditions or personal experiences. While faith often aligns with specific beliefs and practices, it can also be an inner conviction that guides our actions and decisions.
Final Thoughts
The pursuit of God can transform us, fostering inner peace, purpose, and a deeper connection with the divine. This journey may inspire a life of service and compassion, positively impacting the world around us. The most important step is to begin—continue exploring, learning, and growing on this path. Embrace the challenges, for they are essential to your spiritual growth.
