We have seen that with the Lord’s presence there are two aspects, the visible presence and the invisible presence. The Gospel of John also reveals two aspects of the Spirit. John 14:16-17a says, “And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter, that He may be with you forever; even the Spirit of reality.” According to these verses, the Lord Jesus prayed that the Father would give us another Comforter, and this other Comforter is the Spirit of reality.
According to this chapter, the Spirit, being another Comforter, would seem to be another person, because a comforter is a person. The Lord Jesus was the first Comforter. Because He as the first Comforter is a person, then the other Comforter, the Spirit of reality, should also be a person. Therefore, in John 14 we have two Comforters, the Lord and the Spirit of reality, and it seems that these two Comforters are two persons.
What is the value of :C
If the lord Jesus is: X
And given the spirit of reality is also A person

Most energy systems seem to work by moving a turbine that generates energy. So why can't we just mass employ people to turn large generators on a much bigger scale. It's not as if there's a lack of manpower to do it. The underskilled and lower IQ portion of society has been underemployed for decades and could be put to work in jobs like this. In addition you could make use of levers/leverage to maximize the energy people use to turn the generators that will make it very efficient.

>>14243421 i always assumed this was just an error in the script that nobody thought to correct. it's obvious the human networking thing here was to create computational power for the machine world, using the human brains for blast processing and the matrix was the most efficient way to otherwise occupy them, either during downtime or if only a portion of the brain could realistically be used.

How does a wolf degenerate into this in such a short period of time? Dog breeds are truly something puzzling for me.

>>14244355 Selective breeding.
You can inseminate and breed a dog in about 15 months. That will give you a litter of genetically distinct puppies. Then you can breed the smallest dogs and puppies with eachother. In 25 years you can breed 20 generations of dogs, which is significant.
You aren't necessarily looking for gene mutations - just different expressions of basic latent genes that already exist in the dog's gene pool, like those that determine size. If you were trying to develop a new organ from scratch, you'd need a much larger time scale and a good source of radiation to introduce mutations.
