Without sharing exactly what my brain is working through right now (the more you know...) I want to make this statement: It's not turtles all the way down, it is giants all the way up.

You see, the universe is built up using elementary particles, Quarks are a part of this but needless to say what makes up the universe is finitely small (check out Chuck Misslers "Beyond" series). We do not need turtles to rest the world on, God 'hung' the world in the void of space (using the phrasing of the prophets here, forget which one).

But in culture wars, and in personal conflict and in actual wars. it is giants all the way up. You think your lefty friend calling a fetus a fetus and refusing to call it a child is unrelated to why we now have gender-neutral bathrooms? Think again.

You think making peace in the middle east has anything to do with having both parties stopping the fight? Think again and also ask the Sefardic Jews about how the Ashkenazi Jews treat them.

Every time you grow up, you live and learn a little you see that the corner of the world you thought you had figured out was downstream from a bigger giant, another Goliath, a more masterful mind that seeks destruction for its own sake.

Let me make this a little weirder. You grow up, you're about thirteen, which is when you start really building your own personality. You are in conflict with your parents, or your teachers, or your own body.

But once you figure out who you are, at least a little, you notice that there is people around you constantly stuffing their sick ideas in your ears, holding you down by lack of good ideas. Then you discover memes and all of a sudden you have no need for a personality, you can be a digital commercial board that switches images ever few seconds.

You finally make your way out of the shallow thinking of memes, but while you were there your teachers taught you the most simplistic form of evolution, that reduces you to nothing but chance, and yet if you find another meaning (via Peterson's path, via soft creationism, hard creationism, or let's leave this in the middle), you find that the whole school system is made to make you hate learning and instead get you to stay dumb while regurgitating smart facts that are likely outdated because true innovation has been stifled.

Fine, you think, but surely when I get past this and start teaching myself it will all go away. Then you find out that the government forbade certain knowledge to reach the public, and other knowledge will only be shared with you if you are the right kind of person. Eventually you learn enough about the world but you now realized that you only know about the material world, and only in the scientific sense.

Knowledge you need about buying a house, doing your finances, keeping a household running. If you were lucky you got some of that from home, but your parents have been compelled to value other knowledge, or they have been sucked into systems similar to the ones you were lost in and did not share or just straight up abused you instead.

And so you have to teach yourself about the world. You try to find experts to help you along, but common sense is so far gone by the time everyone is grown up, most experts are as deformed as you are, with degrees better off used as toilet paper.

But let's say you make it, you dodge most bullets and defeat the other giants. You get your classic 1850's/1900's common sense straight, you get to be, if not wealthy, at least a satisfied person. If you ask me, you should also have a proper relationship with Jesus, and finally you have learned a craft or even a science.

But it's giants all the way up. It's not that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, it is that some rich people will try to bring you down if you do not play their rich people games. By the time you enter this stage of the world, you will find out that other things can be giants. Government regulation, influence public opinion. I even stumbled upon indication that some governments are looking into weaponizing the weather. Whether they succeed or not is another question entirely, but it does give a good idea of how twisted the giants can get if they succeed in their ways.

It's giants all the way up, dragons all the way through the castle, and behind it all (in my opinion) is the spirit of this present time. See, all these giants operate on different levels, and I know you guys can think of a thousand more specific giants. But they all breathe the same spirit of chaos, deceit, and ultimate destruction.

And with every giant you defeat, a bigger one awaits you. This is of course a deterrent. God allows you to meet bigger Giants so that you can choose to trust him like David did, again and again. But Satan sends them because he is afraid. With every Giant you defeat, you can help others defeat theirs, and you win spiritual ground.

I had no specific point beyond this, I simply woke up realizing that it is giants all the way up. Confronting them is good, and there will be times of rest. But until the mightiest giant is finally dealt with, it will be giants all the way up.

Now , to make it personal, let me tell you that I had the worst problems with anger. But when I defeated it, I found out that behind my anger hid the lack of a healthy sense of boundaries and an inability to communicate them. Having figured that out, I now realize that in dealing with this I built up a decision making skill that can be a little too rash and decisive. And so on, and so fort.

It's giants all the way up, but I never fight alone. How about y'all?
