ARE YOU MAKING THIS COMMON MISTAKE IN HOW IT ALL BEGAN?
The common mistake in believing how it all began is believing the stories told at school.
If you believe that everything began out of nothing means you believe the stories told at school.
- Nothing comes from nothing.
- There’s no beginning without an end.
- There’s no end without a beginning.
- It’s a circle game
To pretend the contrary is the most misleading lie ever told since the beginning of words.
In contrast to that lie, the truest sentence ever spoken is the following:
IN THE BEGINNING IS THE WORD
But things have changed.
- 13,750 years ago, when words were new, the most misleading lie impacted only the handful of animals that were first to understand the power of words.
- 2,000 years ago, fewer than 1% — or 270,000 — of the animals could read words and only those within earshot could hear them.
- 585 years ago, when Gutenberg invented the printing press, still only fewer than 8% of the word-users could read.
- 0 years ago, in 2024, 9 billion word-users are misled by the most misleading lie ever told. That’s a 33,000 percent increase from 2024 years ago.
Imagine that.
In the beginning is the word says that the word is…
- In the beginning of when it all began.
- In the beginning of everything we have a word for.
- In the beginning of everything we know.
- In the beginning of you.
- In the beginning of the world.
In the beginning is the word also means is that if you know you, it’s because in the beginning of you is the word.
Before words you didn’t exist, not because you didn’t know, but because you didn’t have a word for you yet.
Every child — be it of an elephant, fish, bird, tree, flower, fly, insect, or word-user — arrives on Earth wordless. We’re all in this together until words separate us from the wordless.
“Words are all we have” (Samuel Beckett). Words are why we are here and the wordless aren’t.
It’s not just about you. We also know that gods and energy didn’t exist until we had a word for gods and energy.
Things have changed except “In the beginning of __________ is the word” remains to this day the truest sentence ever spoken since words were new 13,750 years ago, and later written down when writing was invented 5,000 years ago.
