Spencer Are Your Religious?

No. 

I'm just going start to put a blanket rant discalimer over this entire post. I can asure you that this is more of me processing in writing and will lack explanitory power. 

If you have read Spencer's future page you will have read this: 

Where I came from: After 19 years sitting in church pews as bible memorizing, team leading, small group teaching, applogetics nut prodestent (Think baptisits meets evangelical presbyterian) I came to the well researched, theorouly dicused and quite painful conclusion that I had been been wrong. 

I'm now tempted to go find a timeline graphic to insert but that might be over kill. 

When I was new to highschool I noticited the plethera of controdions of in the bible. After reading the quite extensive explinations writeen by many thoulogines attempting to explain away these controdictions I was not convinced. This was the first chink in the perverable spirtual armer. 

I will skip the littlerly hunderes of hours reading, talking to peers, teachers, theologins, pastors and even the occasional priest about my misgivings and instead move diretly to my formutioan of the problem. 

Here is how it breaks down in my head: 

  • Is there a God? 
    • If yes: Which one? 
    • If no: What now? 

With this layout in my head, I started despreatly trying to find solid evidence of the existance of a God. After what I would can only describe as a frantic, intesive, multi year research project I came to the concusion that while there is evidince on both sides of this argument it's rather tit-for-tat or in non colouqalismm terms as even as can be expected. 

The realisation of this equilibarim of evidnce brought a moment of relaife as I relized that I could make a dision myself and fofill my epistemic duity and both sides required some about of faith. This confortingn noution last for somthing less then a minutre before I remembered all of my reading into my intate, pervasive and extream human, social and even genitic human biaes twoard the belife in God.

From my presective there is clear evidence that I am biased heavly twoard the belife in God. So if the evidence apperes to be nutral without taking my bais into account it seems only reasonable to assume that the evidnce is actualy in favor of there not bing a God.

Rewatching June

I have taken to adding the videos I watch on YouTube to a monthly playlist.  When I hit the end of of the month I take a minute to review what I watched. It's shocking to me how much this little prompt helps double my recall and solidify what I learned. 

Here is what I was watching in June 2017: 

 

I've also found reviewing youtube history with friends over the dinner table to be a great conversation starter.

Expansion Of Spencer's Career Goals

Where I Would Like To Go

It is my onus to make the world a better place by the time I go to bed today. This is why I see my work as a vocation in the original Latin sense of the word with all of its connotations of calling or dare I say purpose.

As I have mentioned in other writings this sentence is a combination of septrate words that all have the correct individual meaning but taken together sound like a poorly worded sales pitch. 

I want to participate in an actualizing business development team with rapid and immersive implementation flows.

If I was to exlain this goal in a parapghar story format...

I wake up one moring in my tiny home and after a quick bit to eat I jump in my self driving car and head to the airport. I'm at the airport because each client I work with is in a diffrent part of the world. After a quick flight I land and meet up with the team at our temporay offices that might be describes as minimalist scandivane work space.

We head to the client the next moreing and meet with the board of directors who overviews the problems and turns over all of the data the business has. It's been made clear to them that we get total acesss and there staff supports us in any way needed.

After a latenight review meeting we head to the clients and spend the next two days asking questions, cruching data and testing ideas. While we respect as intatly valuable we do this with little regard to politics, preconcived idea or scarid ideas. 

Data collection compleate we retreat back to our tempory office to review the data and being drafting an implimtation plan. This plan offten includes a narrowing of fouce, techinical automations, clarifaction of outbound communicaitons, outsourcing of work, and team changes. 

Implimtation plan in hand we spend the last 4 days implmenting the changes in quite agressive format. 

Here is a MindMap of the idea:
