How come every channel is talking about the Antichrist all of a sudden? Is this what the Antichrist really wants or y'all searching for a scapegoat for all the world's problems?
@@ogreman81rabbi akiva supported the messianic claims of bar kokhbah and the other rabbis told him "Grass will grow in your cheeks and the son of David will not have come"
Of course, the irony is that the grass did not grow in his cheeks because the Romans flayed him alive, wrapped him in a Torah scroll and burned him to cinders for his support of the rebellion.
I just got off of work, having some left over birthday cake, and learning about anti-Christ fighting alchemists. Thank you for your continued hard work Dr. Sledge
I really can’t think of ANYONE who can insightfully name-drop David Koresh & Oppenheimer in the same breath. Well-played Dr. Sledge…well-played. A truly compelling video.
Its so fascinating to imagine being in the shoes(or perhaps maggot ridden iron shackles) of someone from so long ago who both feared and hoped for the future in such a strong way. Though his fears are so much different than those of a modern person there's something so familiar about them. You can imagine his excitement upon treating wounds with alcohol, feeling his beliefs physically justified in such a visceral way.
Professor Sledge, i doubt got you'll read this, but i have a question. I am a scientist, a biologist by trade. I look back on alchemists and i see scientists performing experiments and trying to understand the world, just based upon models and theories that today we would consider wrong, or at the least simplistic and outmoded. But then i turn my critical eye to the science of today and i wonder if people in the future will consider my science just as outdated? My knee-jerk reaction is to say no, that we don't know everything (far from it), but we at least have the fundamental understand of reality correct. But how can i know? So i begin to compare and contrast. In your presentation of alchemy, you present it as if the practitioners had absolute surety in their understanding. That this process will produce the philosophers stone, that this mixture will drive away this demon. It seems like exploration based on supposition. You have to believe in demons to create a mixture to defeat them. Modern science is more exploration based on uncertainity. We assume we don't know how the world works, and try to let the world tell us. It's why we get training to examine and avoid biases. Maybe i can trust more in the science of today because it is built from a place uncertainity. So my question is: how much were alchemists uncertain? Were they exploring with open minds, or were they more extrapolating from one assumption to the next? I'm sorry if this doesn’t make much sense, this is a bit stream of consciousness.
If we assume the naturalist picture that our language and cognitive/sensory faculties did not evolve to track down absolute metaphysical Truths. Then it would be more reasonable to think that we have only access to relative human truths. Meaning, our interpretations of the world still relate to the world, but there is no absolute criterion of accuracy independent of our own perspectives and conceptual scheme.
The alchemical observations that still hold up today are the ones that still accurately describe natural processes in a way that we can confirm through experiment; even if the knowledge is as rudimentary as a description of the changes in colour and texture certain materials undergo during specific conditions. I’d imagine future scientists will probably view most of today’s models and theories the way we view Newtonian Physics today; true enough for a given value of true; like the difference between approximating the shape of the earth as a perfect sphere and knowing it is really an oblate spheroid with irregularities.
@@GillfigGarstang exactly, a lot of alchemy still holds up today: even a lot of the medicine still gets used, although we don't really think about it. We take pills, but those pills often contain the same compounds people used to drink in teas and such. It's still useful to know the ingredients for some of the over-the-counter medicines in case your local pharmacy runs out, you can often still get the thing you need for that cold or tummy ache at the supermarket. The periodic table emerged out of alchemists figuring out how elements bonded, which is the basis of all chemistry. A lot of the experiments you do in high school Chem are alchemy staples that have been taught since Oxford University was first founded. But, to answer OP's question: there is absolutely a difference of attitude, but on the other hand the alchemical attitude hasn't totally disapoeared from science. Pretty much all alchemists were certain that such a thing as the Philosopher's Stone was possible: the question was only how to make it. The demons thing was a side quest: and certainly not all alchemists shared the view that their discipline was useful against demons or the antichrist. But the Philosopher's Stone? Yeah, they were all certain it was real. The best modern comparison really is that pretty much all Physicists are certain that a Unified Theory of Physics is possible. That is, that Newtonian and Quantum Mechanics will one day be unified by some discovery. There isn't actually any proof that this is true (theoretically, the universe COULD just have totally separate rules for how *reaaaally* small stuff and *reaaaally* big stuff behave), and arguably it's merely a quirk of the human mind that we think this has to be true, on the other hand this Holy Grail is what convinces governments to fund scientific research. So, whether it's real or not is sort of besides the point: much like with alchemy and the Philosopher's Stone.
It's amazing how any alchemists survived their first experiments given how toxic they were. Not surprising they thought it would work given the amount of mercury they used. Now excuse me I'm going to go and chew my magic lead ball and talk to angels.
@disgoop If youpoison yourself enough, you might think you can BECOME God. I'm sure there's a bunch of methods of becoming something else, alchemical or otherwise.
The thing I love most about alchemy videos is the way they change how I look at my modern lab work. The magic and wonder of isopropyl alcohol as a disinfectant isn’t something I’ve ever truly considered.
"Its as if every generation feels entitled to nothing less than the apocalypse, and yet grass grows in the cheeks of proclaimer of doom, prognosticator of the end, and apocalyptic prophet." I just want you to know. I have a friend who lives under the fear of the end times. This line alone was very comforting to them during a bad night of anxiety. Thank you for all the work you do in taking history back from fearmongers and profiteers who's only care is how history can assist their grifting. The respect you show for this material is sometimes even greater than the people who wave their book around like a crude philosophical mace.
I laughed at the 5th essence Leelo Dallas multipass line! I always love how interesting and informative these videos are plus we get the driest humor sprinkled throughout!
Thank you for the presentation of your knowledge along with the wild and trippy imagery! In my opinion, you're the kind of teacher I can sit for hours listening too.
to me, it does not matter, although I love the history of alchemy, that it was a mechanical process, it is a spiritual process for me and is now a practicing process like Jung and if it was doubtful a spiritual in the beginning it is now, it works for me, and it is true now as a metaphor and to put it simply in practical occult terms " if it works use it"
The older brother of my grandmother was a lifelong Jehova witness. Now in his case I can imagine believing in Armageddon. He lived ,in Europe,trough WW1 ,The Spanish flu, ,WW2, Cuba crisis etc. When the Berlin wall fell and the cold war stopped, he started to realize armageddon probably wouldn't happen in his lifetime. He was in his 70thies. On his deathbed finally admitted he wasted his life following the Jehova Witnesses . It's such a sad example how generations of true believers waste their lives waiting for some fictional future life in a ' heaven on earth '
The thumbnail is fitting, as it looks like the demon/antichrist has had one too many potions, and is now going for that cheeky ear nibble. And of course, cheers for the continued great content 🥂
Oooh this was delicious. Alchemical Franciscan prepper? Not a sentence I had imagined prior to today! Principe is doing excellent work, and I am going to go listen to that video with him right now.

i wont have that reconsition becuase dont subscribe, but i watched youtubers that now at millions viwers or 500k+ subs when they were at mere 100-500 subs.....
Now that a franciscan is the Pope.. maybe OUR time is THE time for aopcalypse? Maybe all the hunger, war and misery we are experiencing now is that time of peace before the storm? I love that phrase: "You didn't see that coming" along with prophets and seers, we need a lot of humility to be part of the universe without losing our minds (or our heads).
Jesus said the end would come when we didn't expect it. Or something to that effect. I wish I was able to quote verses like some people do... So if everyone thinks the end is nigh, then the end ain't nigh. So, since I'm a swell guy... The end is nigh!! Aggghhh!!!!
Hi Dr. Sledge, I’m a huge fan of your channel. I have been interested in these topics since I was a teenager, and have hardly found such clear, accessible, and humorous explanations of these profound topics elsewhere. Do you have any advice when attempting to read old texts? How do you come to comprehend all the various fonts and handwriting styles? How do you learn about various written idiosyncrasies, for example in Latin or Hebrew, between wide stretches of time and geography? Thank you for illuminating us 😊

Naw bro its trump. It's been 666 days since trump lost and since hes announced his reelection. His name matches anti christ in gematria look it up. His great grandmother was name christ. Too many red flags 🚩🚩🚩
Question: i just found your channel. This is fascinating! I want to know why they wanted gold so badly. I can understand it in modern times where its valued because of rarity? But, back then, beyond the beauty of it, why were they so obsessed with it?
@@GratefulWarriorMomgold has a number of characteristics that fascinated early people and what made them think it is some "most noble metal". First of all, it is comparatively rare, and has a nice yellow hue. It is also relatively soft, easy to shape and work with. It is also basically "uncorruptable", it doesn't rust and it is super hard to dissolve or otherwise break it down.
This Franciscan Apocalipse stuff would rock so hard as a JRPG… Very wacky, and somehow so similar to present days. Just might be inclined to make this one!
Fascinating video, I really enjoyed your professional presentation style too. What are your thoughts on the simmilarity of Zohar's Four Worlds vs the Four States of Consciousness in the Mandukya Upanishad?
Excellent Episode. I ve heared about him before but not as in deep as this. Do you imagine the urgence? Anti Christ technology!!! I loved it!!! Thanks.
Can you take us on a tour of some of the items on the shelves behind you? I watch a lot of your videos and often find myself wondering about various items...
Your just read my mind❤ I've been feeling like this is the end cycle from an apocalyptic era and the persecution of my people the uyghur Muslims persecuted by the dragon❤ but I've realized that the dragon is eternal and we are victims if we succumb to these forces❤ I now realize how related I am to esoteric Jews, i am now one❤
So you tell John that things in academia haven't changed that much, but maybe that just means*THIS* generation is the one that will see the Eschaton! And maybe *this* faculty meeting the one that will welcome the rain of blood and army of lightning -breathing locust horses... Preferably before the Chair finishes his remarks...
Inquisition cop: "Sir, you have the right to remain silent ..." John: "On what charge, buddy?" Inquisition cop: "Sir, we've had reports that you're being too fantastic, so we're gonna have to bring you in."
The talk about the end times and prepping makes me think about the Christian nationalists and all the propaganda that gets meshed together and most times leads to wars or battling against secular people

Naw bro its trump. It's been 666 days since trump lost and since hes announced his reelection. His name matches anti christ in gematria look it up. His great grandmother was name christ. Too many red flags 🚩🚩🚩
"The Inquisition! What a show"
Question: i just found your channel. This is fascinating! I want to know why they wanted gold so badly. I can understand it in modern times where its valued because of rarity? But, back then, beyond the beauty of it, why were they so obsessed with it?
Gold was just as valuable maybe even more valuable than now
@@TheEsotericaChannel but why?
Do you want to be rich ?
@@GratefulWarriorMomrarity, beauty and demand from the rich.
@@GratefulWarriorMomgold has a number of characteristics that fascinated early people and what made them think it is some "most noble metal". First of all, it is comparatively rare, and has a nice yellow hue. It is also relatively soft, easy to shape and work with. It is also basically "uncorruptable", it doesn't rust and it is super hard to dissolve or otherwise break it down.
This Franciscan Apocalipse stuff would rock so hard as a JRPG… Very wacky, and somehow so similar to present days.
Just might be inclined to make this one!
Beautiful presentation.
Fascinating video, I really enjoyed your professional presentation style too.
What are your thoughts on the simmilarity of Zohar's Four Worlds vs the Four States of Consciousness in the Mandukya Upanishad?
Coincidence but interesting. Also the four worlds isn't actually four.
I’d love to hear you interview Alan Moore sometime.
Ooh, like the music in the credits.
Thank you for your knowledge.
15:54 Dogs and cats living together...

Thank you very much Dr Sledge. Is there any chance of an alchemic solution to the 21st century?

Do you imagine the urgence? Anti Christ technology!!!
I loved it!!!

Can you take us on a tour of some of the items on the shelves behind you? I watch a lot of your videos and often find myself wondering about various items...
Very good as always thanks
Your just read my mind❤ I've been feeling like this is the end cycle from an apocalyptic era and the persecution of my people the uyghur Muslims persecuted by the dragon❤ but I've realized that the dragon is eternal and we are victims if we succumb to these forces❤ I now realize how related I am to esoteric Jews, i am now one❤
Thanks!
Thank you ✨👍
So you tell John that things in academia haven't changed that much, but maybe that just means*THIS* generation is the one that will see the Eschaton! And maybe *this* faculty meeting the one that will welcome the rain of blood and army of lightning -breathing locust horses... Preferably before the Chair finishes his remarks...
❤ Dr Sledge!!! ⚡️🔥
I’ll finish that quote you started… “Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!”- Dr. Peter Venkman
Inquisition cop: "Sir, you have the right to remain silent ..."
John: "On what charge, buddy?"
Inquisition cop: "Sir, we've had reports that you're being too fantastic, so we're gonna have to bring you in."
Terrific video.
The talk about the end times and prepping makes me think about the Christian nationalists and all the propaganda that gets meshed together and most times leads to wars or battling against secular people
