I know I discussed this in another thread (this is along a similar vein), but how most languages seem to identify colors in the same order historically. There are some outliers and the reason for this is still being debated. Anywho, this gets into linguistic relativity.

 
I actually have mysteries of a more personal nature within my family. Two of my great great grandfathers on my mother's side of the family disappeared. One went off to a gold rush never to be heard from again. Another, rode off with a group of horsemen who were reputed to be horse thieves or the James gang and was never seen again. I do know that the James gang and horse thieves where active in that general area during the time that my second relative disappeared.

Great thread!

One mystery that I love is the "Voynich" manuscript:
BookReaderImages.php



It has been looked at by some of the finest code breakers in history (including those that helped crack the German Enigma code) yet it has never been decoded.

I have spent quite a lot of time looking at it, and have concluded that I do not posses the skills to even try and attempt to break the code or translate the text, but there is a lot of good information to be gleaned from close study of the illustrations.

I have seen quite a few explanations as to its origin, but none of them match my conclusions.

I believe it is genuine, but at the same time it is quite likely that it could have been made in the 1420s to trick somebody into paying a lot of gold for the "occult" knowledge it could contain. Even if it is a deliberate fraud, it is still a very interesting thing.

I've been following Larry Harnisch's work on the Black Dahlia murder case for years, he's spent a fair amount of time researching the case and the theories of others who have claimed to have solved it. He's a longtime newspaper journalist and copy editor and has spent a lot of time talking to people and going through city, state and newspaper archives for his research. What's he's put out there is very well researched and I try to check up on his progress every so often to see if he's finally going to write a book about it.

MYSTERY ...the secret worship of a deity from the meaning myein...to shut the eyes. Something unexplained, and unknown.

Mystery Mother Abomination, states a value......what is unknown as the shutting of the eyes.

EYE = to SEE.

Mystery of Mother Abomination........the HOLY SEE.

Mystery equates I knew how to convert, yet I never knew the after effects of converting which were always unknown. Therefore when they became unknown they remain unknown. For how can you know something that changes, when you never had the information of the change for it was never meant to be changed?

Therefore what I once saw as image and information for the act of converting SION. I then converted SION and caused the mystery, for what was once there is now gone....so it became unidentified as a cause and also a mystery.

The mystery, time once existed as 24 light and now existed as 22 light as the Revelations of what I then saw when I changed what had been SEEN.

I knew by factors what existed and then I knew by factors what no longer existed, yet I did not know where it went.

Yet I look out into space and know that something once existed where space became space. So I factored that I could remove information in total in the space to beyond space 1 0 -1, yet never believed that I destroyed.....I told myself that I had created 9, for I told myself that 1 was 10..........the real mystery is self deceit.

On second thought you may be onto something here

Look, enough is enough. This is utter rubbish that makes no sense whatsoever. Do you even realise that there is no logic to be found in any of that. You don't explain what you are talking about - it's like a crypto key is needed to unlock anything that even reads sensibly. If you want to post extreme esoteric stuff, by all means start a thread of your own but stop spamming threads in which everyone else is contributing by writing in understandable English. Please take this as a polite warning.

We are loathe to ban people here who aren't hurting anyone, but at the same time, we delete spam posts and vile trolling. Your post makes as much sense as random keyboard typing.
