I have noticed your speculation that Ezekial Calvin is Anti-Magnus. If this were true, how then do we reconstruct his early actions:  Hiring Hank Johnson to study 13MAGNUS and beginning the Niantic Project.  If this is true, and I am not certain, it carries profound implications involving his relationship with Ada, because certainly she sides with the N'Zeer. Or am I thinking too hard on this subject?

    Do we have a good idea of exactly what the mission and goal of 13magnus is? Why would ADA side with the N'Zeer?

    When Hank Johnson first appeared his alignment wasn't determined until the Anomaly outcome at Cahokia Mound. That said, if Hank is truly a free agent unaligned to any faction, then he is free to broker relationships between the conflicting parties and re-establish a stable balance. The N'zeer, Shapers and other out-there entities probably know they can't eliminate the other because they're locked in an interdependent relationship.

    They don't necessarily like each other but will need to find a way to co-exist and satisfy their ego/ambition at the same time.

    The Darsana Point, perhaps is a realization that the RES and ENL need each other - and need to rely on each others resources to further their interests. It may culminate in a situation where opppsing factions end up protecting and maintaining each other's portals instead of being locked into the destructive cycle of attrition.

    Out there now, you've got ENL not destroying, and infact preserving RES Level 8 portal clusters and vice versa. Profound change in the landscape. Maybe this Anomaly should be perpetuated where Agents will need to hack portals of opposing polarity for critical resources.

    IF Calvin is Antimagnus he must have known about 13Magnus and needed some way to expose them since he needed to hide the fact that he is Antimagnus. Hank was the perfect instrument for that. By sending Hank on his adventure Calvin could have predicted the outcome that Hank will disseminate his findings and set in motion a set of events leading up to the Niantic Project and thus the N'zeer

    QuantumIngressEffectIngress QuantumEffect That is an interesting reading of it.  I don't entirely disagree - you may be correct that Calvin "wasn't Anti-Magnus" or didn't think of himself as AM.  The line I focus on here is when Azmati says "When did you figure it out?" - To me that means that Azmati believe Calvin is AM in his heart or soul even if he doesn't yet grasp it.  She then goes on to say that she was figured "herself" out early on.  The question is, was Calvin's ideology aligned to AM all along and he didn't realize it until later?

    I think you are suggesting that his comments after that ("The Age of the N'Zeer is upon us" and "Order. Clarity. Truth.") may just be either jesting with her or misdirection.  I'm not sure one way or the other.

    Do you think H. Richard Loeb was wrong in his evaluation of Calvin? See his post here: https://plus.google.com/+HRichardLoeb/posts/9cmDPcMWTBw

    I think we need more evidence of Calvin's actions between Darsana and Shonin (Q1 2015).

*Is Abaddon to be feared?*

*Is Abaddon to be feared?* My argument is no. I'm interested in knowing the origin of the cited scripture. Or is it scripture? It looks like it may be another person's version of the scripture which comes across as... It feels evil and foreboding. I have 2 sources that paint a different picture. In biblical text the apostle John translated the Hebrew word Abaddon to Greek which is Apollyon. Apollyon means “Destroyer,” and is given as the name of “the angel of the abyss.” Though most reference works apply this name to some evil person or entity, the whole setting of the apocalyptic vision in Revelation is to the contrary. It consistently portrays angels being used by God to bring woe and destruction upon His enemies. Not the devil or his demons. Destruction is not always evil. The Interpreter’s Bible says: “Abaddon, however, is an angel not of Satan but of God, performing his work of destruction at God’s bidding.” It wasn't until the 19th century that the 'angel of the a...

Kalash of Cultures - Pakistan: http://youtu.be/qEXnEfdvv6s The argument: 1. Watch the video; this Dardic mountain tribe plays polo. They fiercely fought for their independence through the ages, till the British arrived; at which point they adopted some British customs like playing polo on weekends (although they claim they invented the game first). 2. The Kalasha have lived in geographic isolation for so long that their DNA has diverged. But, there are markers to suggest that they come from around the Mediterranean(that is, that they are Dardic). There are 2 theories as to how they got there: a. They were travellers along the silk route who decided to settle in a scenic location and sell spices, apricots and cherries (the latter two do not grow in the subcontinent, only in the Mediterranean; and with no contact with the outside world for centuries, there's no other way they could've gotten these fruits) b. They are descendants of Alexander the Great 's armies; who ref...
