Synaptic Sparks - Those tiny jolts of electricity that jump from neuron to neuron within a person's brain when that person is engaged in thinking.

I have been told I "think too much" and that I "need to get a hobby".  The problem is, I do have a hobby. It's called "thinking".

I enjoy doing things where thinking is a requisite component. Things such as learning new stuff, fixing things that others can not fix, solving puzzles, playing chess, and creating this website while learning how to make a website.

This website is about things I have spent considerable time researching, learning, understanding, concluding, and now presenting for your edification. (If this definition pop up link doesn't work, you need to enable javascript.)

"Thoughts" are the result of "thinking". This website is literally thoughts stored by electricity in a computer, Thus I found the name Synaptic Sparks dot info to be especially fitting for this website.

When I first learned of the information that I am presenting on this website, I did not have this website. I had a mere 10 megabytes of space that came with my ISP's internet connection service. It was an awkward URL to remember so I came up with www.synapticsparks.info.


I am FURIOUS about what I have learned. Simply put, I have been lied to and stolen from, and you have been lied to and stolen from as well. I now know how this is being done and it is my duty to my fellow Citizens to inform you of what I know. 

For illustration, let us assume that for whatever reason, you started measuring the gasoline you purchase from your neighborhood station and you find a five percent error every time you purchase gas, except on the days that the weights and measures guy is there to certify the pump meters. Let us assume that you also figure out how the dealer is defrauding you and all your neighbors. Are you going to remain silent about such theft?

Me neither. This is my motivation for composing this website.


My dictionary defines "truth" as "1. Conformity to fact or actuality. 2. A statement proven to be or accepted as true. 3. Sincerity; integrity. 4. Fidelity to an original or a standard. 5. Reality; actuality."  

And my thesaurus says "SYNONYMS: truth, veracity, verity, verisimilitude. These nouns refer to the quality of being in accord with fact or reality. Truth is a comprehensive term that in all of its nuances implies accuracy and honesty."

Therein lies a logical conflict. "Truth ... implies accuracy and honesty", however just because a statement is "2. ... accepted as true" does not actually make that statement true. Quite the contrary, a statement accepted as true can actually be the statement of a lie. 

In regard to statements of lies that are accepted as truths, people can be grouped into 4 main categories. 

  1. Those who know the truth but lie to continue perpetration of the lie.
  2. Those who suffer cognitive dissonance when presented with material evidence and logical proof that their "belief" is irrefutably not supported by the relevant facts.
  3. Those who don't have a clue about the truth.
  4. Those (such as myself) who have learned the truth.

My dictionary defines "faith" as a "Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence." A "belief" that rests upon logical proof or material evidence is not a "belief", but a substantiated "conclusion".

This website is not about my "beliefs". It is about my "conclusions" which are supported by material evidence and logical proof. An example follows on the next page.


"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act." --George Orwell

The Truth shown on this website is contentious. It is also verifiable. And my best method of verification is the failure of others to refute the Truth shown on this website.

Those with a self serving interest in maintaining the lie, and those with cognitive dissonance have only three options available: 

  1. Attempt to refute the logical proof and material evidence supporting the Truth shown on this website;
  2. Attack and vilify the author of this website and/or attempt to keep people from reading this website;
  3. Leave this website and forget it exists.

For those wishing to exercise option 1, there is a dialog forum expressly to allow the attempt to refute what I am posting to this website. Registration is required because the spammers will fill the forum with garbage otherwise. Registration merely requires a valid email address.

Those who choose option 2 are typically those who are supporting the lie. I may or may not leave the personal attacks posted on the forum by these people because such attacks always speak to the quality of the person attempting the vilification more so than to the quality of the person being vilified. And the evidence typically stands un-refuted while the attacker is ignoring the evidence to make that personal attack.

Those who choose option 3 will likely be the liars that can not refute the evidence, those who suffer cognitive dissonance because this website proves their beliefs are not supported by the evidence, and those who are scared by what logically follows from the facts presented in this website.

Are you willing to know the whole truth?

Yes               No
