Here's one example of why I laugh.This is a link to the article on the bacterium that can double every 10 minuteshttp://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pubmed&pubmedid=13888946Here's the text that was read in the video:Lawlz and rolfcopterz all around, apparently aaron does not know the first thing about simple population dynamics. The growth rate of a population of any given species is not determined by simple biotic potential, that is to say, the maximum possible reproductive rate of the population. In reality, the growth rate of a population is almost entirely based on what is called carrying capacity. A carrying capacity is the number of organisms a habitat can support given it's available resources. However, lets give aaron's way of thinking a try. The bacterium PSEUDOMONAS NATRIEGENS has a generation time of slightly less than 10 minutes, that means that every ten minutes a population of this bacteria can double itself, under optimal circumstances. If aaron is correct in his population projections, a culture of that bacteria that started with only 1 organism should be able to fill the earth's oceans in less than 1 day.Now, I may be off by a bit on the calculation. I didn't know exactly how large this particular bacterium was so I used a normal size for a bacteria (about a 1 micron radius). I then looked up the volume of the Earth's oceans and using simple division could find how many of the bacteria would be required to fill it. After I had this number, I could use the formula [final number(time)=initial number X 2 ^ (time / doubling time)] to find time, which was about 23 hours. I may be off on the math some but I think that you can all still see the point.

"'When A MAN AWAKES HE CAN DIE; WHEN HE DIES HE CAN BE BORN.'"We must find out what this means."'To awake,' 'to die,' 'to be born.' These are three successive stages. If you study the Gospels attentively you will see that references are often made to the possibility of being born, several references are made to the necessity of 'dying,' and there are very many references to the necessity of 'awakening'—'watch, for ye know not the day and hour . . .' and. so on. But these three possibilities of man, to awake or not to sleep, to die, and to be born, are not set down in connection with one another. Nevertheless this is the whole point. If a man dies without having awakened he cannot be born. If a man is born without having died he may become an 'immortal thing.' Thus the fact that he has not 'died' prevents a man from being 'born'; the fact of his not having awakened prevents him from 'dying'; and should he be born without having died he is prevented from 'being.'"We have already spoken enough about the meaning of being 'born.' This relates to the beginning of a new growth of essence, the beginning of the formation of individuality, the beginning of the appearance of one indivisible I."--Gurdjieff--ch 11, In Search of the MiraculousAwakening is a new birth of essence,of the child who is "prophesied" tobecome the savior of the whole beingof the awakening man. It is impossibleto awaken completely all at once as Gurdjieff said but one must firstbegin this way for short moments.Gurdjieff also said that "ONE MUST DIE ALL AT ONCE AND FOREVER AFTER HAVING MADE A CERTAIN EFFORT, HAVINGSURMOUNTED A CERTAINOBSTACLE, HAVING TAKENA CERTAIN DECISION FROMWHICH THERE IS NO GOINGBACK."It is precisely this thatGurdjieff speaks of regardingthe hasnamuss in Beelzebub'sTales. It was the Lentrohamsaminwho came up with the inventionwhich formed the basis of allthe great and small maleficentactivities of those 'learned'beings of ACADEMIA, etc., andof all their unconsciousharmful manifestationsleading to the destructionof the last remnants of theresults, so beneficent for thethree-brained beings on earth,of the very saintly consciouslabors of the Essence-LovingAshiata Shiemash."The study of the forty-eight ORDERS OF LAWS towhich man is subject cannot be abstract like thestudy of astronomy [and other such 'academia'];they can be studied ONLY by observing them inoneself and by GETTING FREE FROM THEM. At thebeginning a man must simply understand that heis quite needlessly subject to a thousand pettybut irksome laws which have been created for himby other people and by himself. When he attemptsto get free from them he will see that he cannot.Long and persistent attempts to gain freedom fromthem will convince him of his slavery. The laws towhich man is subject can only be studied bystruggling with them, by trying to getfree from them. "BUT A GREAT DEAL OF KNOWLEDGEIS NEEDED IN ORDER TO BECOME FREEFROM ONE LAW WITHOUT CREATING FORONESELF ANOTHER IN ITS PLACE."--Gurdjieff
