"Do we really need to believe in the existence of distant galaxies like NGC245 if in fact the world is being produced in the human cerebellum as a phenomenon of language? What exactly is the ontological status of these distant parts of the universe that register only as faint tracings on our instruments, then interpreted through the fishy fiade of a bunch of stacked up theories and formulas? I mean did you know that the entire universe of radio telescopy, radio telescopes were developed around 1950 they have been used to build up our entire picture of the universe.
Did you know that if you took all the energy that has fallen on all the radio telescopes on this planet since the invention of radio telescopy that it would be less energy than is generated by a cigarette ash falling two feet?
So that is where your data sample is coming from that you have built up this model of exploding galaxies and colliding quasars and mega this and mega that. I mean, it's pretty flimsy stuff folks, compared to the meat of the moment in which we find ourselves. "

Cerebellar functions are so necessary, yet, so not-cerebral.

No disrespect for the late Terrence McKenna intended. We all make mistakes. Besides, this pic reminds me of a pencil drawing of myself in the early 90s.
