type='text'>GOP pushes for water pollution</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Republicans are making it clear that they are intend on polluting as much of the western water supply as possible.&amp;#160; The current goal is two fold, first allow oil pipelines through water aquifers – and be sure to allow them to be easy targets for any terrorists – assuming that nature does not cause a leak first. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;cite&gt;Reuters&lt;/cite&gt; 29 January 2012: “Republican lawmakers will try to force the Obama administration to approve the Canada-to-Texas Keystone XL pipeline by attaching it to a highway bill that Congress will consider next month, House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner said on Sunday.” but also “Attaching Keystone to a pending deal to extend payroll tax cuts for workers, which has greater bipartisan backing than the highway bills, is another vehicle Republicans are considering.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Keep in mind, the Republican goal is, and will remain, “The Most Harm to the Most People.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;If western water supplies escape contamination, it is still important to see that continental oil reserves are depleted.&amp;#160; Unless they are, there will be no means by which al-Qaeda and its successors can out last America in energy reserves necessary to power our military-industrial-complex.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Republican objective is clear: Waste money on a military machine which is outdated and ill-advised … one that requires door-to-door combat to locate an unidentified enemy in clearly hostile territory.&amp;#160; Keep in mind: terrorists don’t need uniforms and don’t concern themselves with the Geneva Convention.&amp;#160; It is the terrorist method to kill anyone at any time – even civilians usually women and children within the nations granting them support and shelter.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Republican objective is clear: pump all our oil out of the ground and waste it in as many ways possible; then we become fully dependent on middle eastern oil reserves.&amp;#160; In 1945, Nazi Germany was fully dependent upon those same resources – they ran out of fuel and lost the war.&amp;#160; The Republicans want us to be totally disarmed and helpless against al-Qaeda … why?&amp;#160; Their leadership is being funded by the same guys who fund al-Qaeda, the Taliban, and all the other terrorist organizations.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In November we get another chance to empower the Republican party and expedite its clearly defined dual efforts to bankrupt and disarm America … “The Most Harm to the Most People” … it is the American way of life – or, soon will be. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

:-D YEP … and they’re making life better for their citizens … at the cost of our economic security.&amp;#160; Seven hundred years ago, China was the world’s economic super-power … fifty years from today, if things go the GOP way, they will be again …. with no effort on their part.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Consider this: George W had a 56% approval rating at this point in his administration … he doubled the deficit, and plunged us into a recession … plus let Bin Laden run free.&amp;#160; Obama’s approval rating is lowest of previous three presidents and disapproval rating is higher … he must really be doing something right!&amp;#160; Republicans, who gave BW a 90% approval rating – so he could ruin the country --&amp;#160; gave Obama a 13% approval, … again indicating Obama is doing everything properly … after all, “THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE” crowd hates the guy.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;November promises to be an interesting point in American History.&amp;#160; We can elect a Republican, and put an end to the American experiment, or we can re-elect Obama and see the nation prosper.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Then too … there is 21 December to deal with … which party do you want to see handle a global crisis of mystical proportions?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt; Republicans want “THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE” – and they represent the End-of-the-World-Second-Coming crowd … so regardless of what really will happen after 21 December, we know they are going to do everything in their power to ensure national and global catastrophes are possible.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Watch them on OIL drilling … they will promote it.&amp;#160; That means, they will promote the unnecessary expeditious&amp;#160; depletion of oil oil reserves … while leaving the Al Qaeda &amp;amp; OPEC&amp;#160; reserves intact.&amp;#160; That also means the nation will, in under 20 years, be without a domestic fuel supply – nothing to fuel our planes, ships, or industry (aside from air polluting dirty sulfur infused coal … emphasis on home heat).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Imagine coal for home heating, or to produce the electric for said heating … imagine refurbishing every building in the nations to use coal … imagine how black the air will be.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;NO NEED – without oil, we have no military and that means any petty terrorist group that has oil will have us in their sights – and we’ll be sitting pigeons.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;OR How about CHINA … their one child policy&amp;#160; is now generating a surplus of men … potential soldiers … can you imagine an army of surplus males being aimed at us?&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Their surplus is now four times larger than the total of ALL soldiers who fought in WW2…. that is ALL – from every country involved in the conflict at any one point in time.&amp;#160; Their surplus is FORTY time the total population of the State of Maine…. and we would have no fuel for cars, trucks, tanks or planes…. so we would need to fight on foot … door-to-door … if they were so stupid as to NOT flatten our cities first.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;OH … send a thank you card to your neighborhood Republican … do it now, before there is no way to power mail delivery … thank them for their diligent promotion of:&lt;/p&gt;

In a reprise of the run-up to the Copenhagen climate-change summit in 2009, a fresh batch of possibly compromising e-mails has been released on the eve of the latest round of UN climate talks in Durban, South Africa. &amp;quot;All your favorite Climategate characters are here,&amp;#160; once again caught red-handed in a series of emails exaggerating the extent of Anthropogenic Global Warming, while privately admitting to one another that the evidence is nowhere near as a strong as they'd like it to be.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Don’t you love this: ”the evidence is nowhere near as a strong as they'd like it to be&amp;quot;?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;When have you ever known a scientist to say the evidence is the evidence is “as a strong as they'd like it to be&amp;quot;?&amp;#160; They are never satisfied!&amp;#160; They are always searching for errors and points that need adjustment.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;On the other hand, “Dr Watson thinks that nothing in the e-mails challenges the fact that the world has warmed significantly in the last 100 years and that this has most likely been caused by human beings spewing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;OK – two possibilities: Either we are contributing to global warming, or we are not.&amp;#160; We cannot say we are the “absolute cause”, because there is more than enough evidence to show warming and cooling are cyclical realities spanning thousand of millennia.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But we might be making global climate worse.&amp;#160; Or, as critics argue, having no effect at all.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Does anyone refute that we are making it dirtier?&amp;#160; Hence making the air denser to sunlight.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Does anyone refute that dirt makes things worse? Or that a dirty window has different light properties than a clean one?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;So whatever we are doing, there is no rational doubt that we are affecting the environment in some way.&amp;#160; Thus it falls to the doubter to PROVE that we are mitigating, or improving, the heating that would be part of the natural cycle.&amp;#160; Just saying we aren’t making it worse – well, who&amp;#160; gives a damn!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;We know we are making the world dirtier and less healthy to our species.&amp;#160; We need to correct that – if that means mitigating global warming, than gee wiz willy curs … guess we get a free benefit.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But look to those who dispute global warming – the same “MOST HARM TO MOST PEOPLE” group that opposes healthcare, taxes on rich, and shipping our jobs to foreign nations while borrowing all it can from whatever nation wants to own the United States.&lt;/p&gt;

(AP) — By all accounts, Mark Lindquist is a hero, an underpaid social worker who nearly gave his life trying to save three developmentally disabled adults from the Joplin tornado. Both houses of the Missouri legislature honored Lindquist, the Senate resolution calling him &amp;quot;a true hero and inspiration to others.&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But heroism doesn't pay the bills. The tornado's 200 mph winds tossed Lindquist nearly a block, broke every rib, obliterated his shoulder, knocked out most of his teeth and put him in a coma for about two months. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Lindquist, 51, ran up medical expenses that exceed $2.5 million, and the bills keep coming. He requires 11 daily prescriptions and will need more surgery. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But he has no medical insurance. Lindquist couldn't afford it on a job paying barely above minimum wage. He assumed workers' compensation would cover his bills, but his claim was denied &amp;quot;based on the fact that there was no greater risk than the general public at the time you were involved in the Joplin tornado,&amp;quot; according to a letter to Lindquist from Accident Fund Insurance Company of America, his company's workers' comp provider.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;____________&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;One Republican, state Rep.

DUH!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Now BBC News reports (17 October 2011): “Several officers admitted that armed forces were &amp;quot;the gas-guzzlers of the world&amp;quot; - and while that was sometimes necessary in operations, reducing fossil fuel use and adopting renewables wherever possible made sense from economic and tactical points of view.&amp;#160; “Rear Admiral Morisetti recalled that when commanding an aircraft carrier, it took a gallon of oil to move just 12 inches (30cm), while as many as 20 tonnes per hour were burned during a period of intensive take-off and landing. &amp;quot;You can do that [with oil prices at] $30 a barrel, but not at $100 or $200,&amp;quot; he said.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course the Republicans have always been Hawks and promoters of military expenditures – so they KNEW that we needed oil to run our military and they knew exactly how dependent the military is on oil … which is exactly why they want to drain our reserves and make us totally dependant on the Arab world.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Remember: After 9/11, the first thing GW Bush did – with the full backing of those same Republicans – was to attack our only allies in the Arab world Iraq and Saddam Hussein.&amp;#160; It was, after all, EXACTLY what Osama Bin Laden said he wanted done.&amp;#160; To do it, Bush stopped all efforts to attack and capture of Bin Laden.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Now it takes the British News Media to report what America Journalists have worked so hard to hide – as soon as we run out of oil we are defenseless.&amp;#160; Renewable energy?&amp;#160; Reagan pulled the solar collectors from the Whitehouse roof, he and his party blocked every effort to create a renewable energy base, they blocked legislative attempts to make cars more efficient – while supporting the export of the manufacturing&amp;#160; facilities and related jobs.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;There is a clear pattern of anti-American conduct evidenced by the Republican Party.&amp;#160; Of course, 30% of the nation hates America and so can always be counted upon to vote Republican.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;No biggy.&amp;#160; These same people hate everything that is positive and beneficial.&amp;#160; But they do “Believe” in spirits and deities that are so screwed up that they must constantly but in to human activities.&amp;#160;

It should invest more in social goods, like its pension and health insurance programs, to encourage families to reduce their just-in-case savings and spend more.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Basically, the argument is that they should go up to their eyeballs in debt and screw themselves the same way we have – in the way the outgoing Federal Reserve Chairman to Congress that “Debt is good.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In China, people who have no work receive a pension and so continue to be consumers – in America, Social Security pensions are cut so that money can be wasted on tax breaks for companies who are actively reducing our oil reserves and depleting the natural stockpiles our military will need in the future.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, it is done with the argument of cheaper energy now – to hell with the safety of our children and grandchildren.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Our energy is, and has been for fifty years, artificially lower than all the other industrialized nations.&amp;#160; Yet we do not enjoy the highest standard of living – that seems reserved for the Scandinavian nations that have none of the resources we have and a harsher climate.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Yet they have free medical care and total citizen security – in all aspects of that term.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Note that the unemployment pension is a compensation for a system that the Times describes with the words: “For all these costs, China gets remarkably few jobs from its export-led strategy, which increasingly relies on mechanization to produce more sophisticated goods. Employment has grown by only 1 percent per year since 2004 despite G.D.P. growth of 10 percent.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Think of the jobs we created by outsourcing – factor towns and retail communities destroyed as we shipped manufacturing jobs to third world nations and decimated our general tax revenues.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Let’s look at the line: “China’s exports fell in the third quarter, suggesting foreign consumers are too spent to keep buying even China’s artificially cheap goods and keep sustaining China’s growth.”&amp;#160; Thus China is dependant on keep the rest of the world healthy enough to buy its goods.&amp;#160; This explains why they underwrite the gross mismanagement of the American economy – evidenced in Reagan &amp;amp; Bush each devoting their time to doubling the National Debt.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In reality, so long as China has no large scale, or active, military conflicts, it can allow us to destroy ourselves in favor of its current growth.&amp;#160; If we default on our debt, First Social Security Funds vanish (they are deposited in Treasury Securities); then we drag down the rest of the world as our default undermines any &amp;amp; all unstable regions and their governments fall.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Terrorists will cause unrest – our depletion of our domestic oil reserves will make us dependant on the OPEC nations and terrorist controlled regions for the fuel needed to power our military system – the Nazis ran into that problem and had to siphon fuel in order to retreat – they abandoned the war machine.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Let nature defeat your enemy.&amp;#160; The Russians used that against the Nazis, and against Napoleon.&amp;#160; Their ancestors, the ancestors of the Rus -- the Scythian who were called Royal -- used that tactic against Cyrus The Great … Herodotus reported on it in his Histories.&amp;#160; Any power can fall to its own weight – it is the logic behind Judo and Karate … with the exception that Karate also emphasizes speed as a form of power.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Times just doesn’t get it – the problem is not with China, it is with us.&amp;#160; We are, and have been, actively working against our own best interests.&amp;#160; We are on the road to destruction.&amp;#160; Fortunately for me and my contemporaries, it is our children and grandchildren who will feel the damage.&amp;#160; Fortunately for my children and future grandchildren, I began preparations for that day – I began over forty years ago – and will continue them until I die.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;- THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE -&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;Will not catch my family in its horrors.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-6975899705979674743?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/6975899705979674743/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=6975899705979674743' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6975899705979674743'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6975899705979674743'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/10/new-york-times-misleads-readers.html' title='New York Times Misleads Readers'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-5574382736912523555</id><published>2011-10-16T09:48:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-16T09:48:54.282-07:00</updated><title type='text'>How Congress Supports Terrorists</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;New York Times 16 October 2011: “The Occupy Wall Street protesters in Lower Manhattan have also jumped on the debit card fee as one more example of corporate greed. And activists are calling on account holders to switch to nonprofit credit unions en masse on Nov. 5, which they have named Bank Transfer Day; a Facebook page devoted to the effort has drawn more than 38,000 supporters.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Seems they might be turning their attention to true representation of the people.&amp;#160; Personally, I’m lucky enough to be dealing with an old time Maine bank that actually respects and supports its customer base.&amp;#160; But, obviously, many aren’t that lucky.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Than again, I come to it having dealt with New York Banks in the 1960’s and 70’s – something which left a bad taste in my mouth.&amp;#160; In addition we have the “Credit Card Banks” – institutions formed as banks which actually perform few, if any, real banking functions beyond their credit card&amp;#160; business. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;These institutions are the ones that “Occupy Wall Street protesters” should really focus on.&amp;#160; For starters, they serve to launder and transport money for criminal organizations by both establishing bogus accounts and allowing bogus retail accounts to access the bogus accounts with what are equally bogus transactions – a process that utilizes unreported, or unidentified, identity thief.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;It is actually rather simple:&amp;#160; You open an account with them, and, eventually, tired of the fees, you pay and close the account.&amp;#160; However, while they stop issuing statements – even acknowledge the closing by issuing a closing statement – they actually keep the account active.&amp;#160; This allows them a valid Social Security Number connected to a real person, with valid supporting account documentation to be used to launder money and eventually shield income from taxes.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The laundering involves charges and payments – when done from overseas “merchants” with funds to pay those charges exported in a manner that allows all the National Security &amp;amp; Exchange audits.&amp;#160; Locally, they pay the account immediately from drug money or other illegal sources.&amp;#160; As far as the records are concerned, an audit shows there was no “income” – other than the “normal merchant transaction fee.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Thus the transaction is untaxed and moves funds to the foreign parties.&amp;#160; The merchant fees can then be made mute through the declaration of other bogus accounts as non-performing.&amp;#160; Having made charges to those accounts for interest and non-payment, the accounts are turned over to a collection agent … ideally “sold” at a deep discount.&amp;#160; The “Loss” is than deducted against other income – the merchant fees associated with the money laundering operation.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, it is possible to move funds from foreign terrorist or drug related sources into the country - through bogus merchant accounts here.&amp;#160; Cash can than be distributed as charges to the identity theft cards and paid through the false merchant account or ATM’s (which provide a nice way to pay terrorist cell members without anyone knowing who they are).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, the fees for nothing that are utilized allow the money laundering firms to claim that their operation conforms to “industry standards.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Any auditing these operations is made difficult by members of Congress whose election is funded by these firms, and the terrorists who are their hidden owners.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; The simplest means utilized to hamper the auditing process is to restrict funding ear-marked for that purpose.&amp;#160; This allows Terrorist groups to be condoned by “Act of Congress,” and the Nation to be attacked economically during the extended periods between physical attacks.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The physical attacks on America – the World Trade Center Events – are NOT intended to be meaningful.&amp;#160; They are intended only to create shock waves and distract our attention from the “Bank Fraud” being implemented daily by “Credit Card Banks.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, the Republican Party is composed of, and supported by, experts in Finance.&amp;#160; They are well aware of this fraud and the fact that they are facilitating both the drug trade and terrorism – while defrauding the treasury of money needed to pay off the National Debt they are intent on doubling whenever they can gain control of the Whitehouse.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Republicans will do nothing – beyond ongoing obstruction – to address the situation.&amp;#160; Unless they can focus their efforts on placing responsibility on those who, objective evidence indicates, are responsible for our troubles, “Occupy Wall Street” is, to rely upon an ancient expression: “Pissing into the wind.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;- THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE -&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;When pitted against GOP Criminals&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;“Occupy Wall Street” … a waste of effort.&lt;/p&gt;

Now we have protests against greed – motivated by money, or the desire to acquire it.&amp;#160; The current movement – and it is just another current movement – is no different from the ones associated with the cliché Shylock &amp;amp; Fagan images&amp;#160; of old.&amp;#160; The vocalization is a stand against corporate greed, social inequality and other disparities between rich and poor.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But the proper way to service the poor is to remove basic needs and allow them to function.&amp;#160; The only restrict is that they should not infringe upon the working of the rest of society.&amp;#160; But that would mean that society would need to avoid infringing upon the activities of those deemed “non-productive” – these individuals are, in a historical sense, generally the only truly productive members of any society.&amp;#160; It is from their numbers that the new leaders arise.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In scripture there were two tribes – one the worker merchants and the other the scholars who devoted their life to though.&amp;#160; The mandate was that the merchants use their money to support the scholars.&amp;#160; The other ten tribes were basically little more than passive occupiers of space.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;“Occupy Wall Street”?&amp;#160; Wall Street does nothing that Congress does not allow – or instigate.&amp;#160; The idea that we could borrow and raise the National Debt was based upon Federal Reserve Chairman testimony before Congress:&amp;#160; Apparently debt was unconditionally good – so it was OK for everyone to go into debt.&amp;#160; The housing bubble came about because nobody (who was noticed) said that there were no people to buy the houses… that the baby bust and aging population would mean a housing glut matches with a desire to downsize after the children have left the family home.&amp;#160; But even there, they were matching up, pairing-off, and the number of apartments they needed was being divided in half.&amp;#160; But without the need for the extra space a family would demand – because they were not having families.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Also, we were anti-marriage … a reality of being anti-gay marriage.&amp;#160; The Rightwing made it very very clear: Couples did not deserve marriage if they were not having children.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;As for jobs and wealth.&amp;#160; Where were all these idiotic protestors when we were outsourcing jobs?&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Where are they today – when we are depleting all our oil reserves and will, in fifteen years, find ourselves on our knees before al-Qaeda and the Arab states … on our knees begging for drops of their oil and not able to fuel our planes or power our armies when they decide that we don’t deserve to live.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Where will these protestors be then?&amp;#160; They will be kneeling beneath al-Qaeda scimitars awaiting their beheading.&amp;#160; They will be prostrate, kissing terrorist feet, licking the soles of terrorist slippers, they will wishing they could rise up to the level of being less than nothing before their al-Qaeda masters.&amp;#160; Why?&amp;#160; Because they are playing games on Wall Street and ignoring the true cause of their problems – the Conservative Congressmen and Tea Party politicians who are promoting the slow disarmament of the nation – not by denying the military weapons today – they will provide as many as the debt will carry - but rather they are disarming us by depleting the energy resources the military will need in the future, and by increasing the debt through spending on outdated military systems – many of which the military has made very clear it does not want or need … either now or in any foreseeable future actions.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Debt depletes Social Security.&amp;#160; Debt also depletes medical care and education.&amp;#160; Debt, combined with anti-immigration policies, depletes our economic base … and there is no amount of greed or financial self-interest (of the kind which powers investors) that can alter the reality of the total STUPIDITY of the protestors and their blatant disregard for reality.&amp;#160; If they really wanted to help, if they wanted to achieve a positive outcome, they would ensure that every conservative politician in the nation was kicked out of office and consigned to the deepest hole in the dirtiest coal mine in the nation – there to slave away until they die.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But hey!&amp;#160; Reality dictates this nation will continue on its path to find new ways to bring:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;It is what the protestors really want.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-4310496498669058364?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/4310496498669058364/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=4310496498669058364' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/4310496498669058364'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/4310496498669058364'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/10/occupy-wall-street.html' title='Occupy Wall Street'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-2858427139526399828</id><published>2011-10-03T17:55:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-03T17:55:51.322-07:00</updated><title type='text'>On Amazon.com</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;As of 3 October 2011, “Grandpa Was A Deity” is available in both Hard and Soft cover at Amazon.com – Kindle version should be there soon.&lt;/p&gt;

legal bond defined as “Family”, they don’t want your business.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Case in point, Actress Leisha Hailey and her lover were kicked off a Southwest Airlines flight becomes they were openly affectionate.&amp;#160; Had they been a “family,” they probably could have been invited to screw in the aisles … but they aren’t married, just living together, so, Southwest Airlines holds that they&amp;#160; should NOT be allowed to kiss.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Consider this: last year, Director Kevin Smith was asked to leave a Southwest Airlines flight last year because he was too obese for the seat.&amp;#160; So it appears Southwest Airlines only approves of people who are are thin … but they must also be devout family types – not live-ins.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;One Southwest Airlines Flt. attendant made it clear that the policy specifying it to be a &amp;quot;family&amp;quot; airline also extended to a prohibition against kissing.&amp;#160; Kissing is NOT OK on Southwest Airlines – apparently even among family members.&amp;#160; After all, it doesn’t comply with their definition of “Family” – which is apparently code for non-emotional, non-affectionate … or downright COLD HEARTED .&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;So if you are a heartless android – who is married – you are welcome on Southwest Airlines … otherwise, STAY AWAY from their boarding gate!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-8994376704957834042?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/8994376704957834042/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=8994376704957834042' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/8994376704957834042'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/8994376704957834042'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/09/southwest-airlines-anti-couples.html' title='Southwest Airlines anti-couples'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-4869977703106237634</id><published>2011-09-25T11:05:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-25T11:05:54.755-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Is this for real?</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Got this political e-mail today, 25 Sept 2011:&lt;/p&gt;

This time they’re holding disaster funding hostage, demanding job creation programs be gutted in return. The Democratic Senate declared it DOA, fortunately. But it’s absurd to sacrifice Americans in need, while tanking the economy in an effort to pin it on the President. But welcome to today’s Grand Old Party.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;“We are updating records this weekend and I noticed that your online support this year was still pending (copy/pasted your supporter record below). &lt;a href="https://dscc.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=2&amp;amp;c=k0gYAqkXtqc0qxmX7BAjpZS%2FVr3D5iAr"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Can you help stop the Tea Party from taking over Congress?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt; The GOP House’s actions are a good reminder of how important this razor thin, four seat majority is in the Senate. Without this firewall there would be no way to stop them&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;“The FEC deadline is 6 days away and we have $423,000 to go. &lt;a href="https://dscc.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=2&amp;amp;c=LFWBN33kw1WD%2B8518%2Fun35S%2FVr3D5iAr"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;If everyone gets on board with a $5 contribution&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, we’ll get there.

 &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Consider this – the supervisor could not be reached, the student delivers the baby.&amp;#160; Had she been a cab driver, or policeman, or a passer-by, she would have been a lauded hero.&amp;#160; But in the warped mind of the DA’s in LOS ANGELES, she is put on trial and then convicted.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The people of LOS ANGELES&amp;#160; are clearly IDIOTS!&amp;#160; They are hatful and bigoted, and consistently so.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Think back to the OJ Simpson Trial.&amp;#160; There are three witnesses who place OJ at home when his former wife was murdered.&amp;#160; THREE WITNESSES!&amp;#160; Who saw, spoke to, and knew OJ.&amp;#160; Yet the DA prosecuted him and pocketed a $4 million advance for a worthless book in which she could only bitch about the fact he was found not guilty.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Subsequently, a bigoted jury decided that he should still pay the Goldman family for the death of their son.&amp;#160; They did so in the face of evidence that the&amp;#160; vehicle allegedly used – the Bronco – was NOT there while OJ was.&amp;#160; It was not inside the gates, nor was it outside … there are THREE WITNESSES who affirmed that.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;We also know, as the Bigots on the jury did, that Arnelle Simpson – OJ’s daughter - was at the movies with friends.&amp;#160; She had driven herself there, and was inside the theater at the time of&amp;#160; the murders.&amp;#160; So we know she didn’t do it.&amp;#160; But HER CAR was parked inside the Rockingham gates – Parks and Kato not only affirmed it, but affirmed OJ’s proximity to it, and OJ’s Limo (second car), when he retrieved some things before heading to the airport.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;If Arnelle’s car was at home, and OJ’s car was at home, how did Arnelle drive herself to the movies?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As for the rest of the case – the lead officer pled guilty to reduced perjury charges and wen on to make millions off his book deals.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;THAT IS the level of honesty and rationality in LOS ANGELES … just how Republican are the people of LOS ANGELES?&amp;#160; Must be very … only then can we explain their utter stupidity and bigotry.&amp;#160; Only then can we explain why they would punish a student for doing what was necessary when her teacher was absent… instead of just sitting there and watching the baby emerge (possibly bringing about the death of birth mother and child – which is what “pro-lifers generally sought when they opposed abortion in the case of tubular pregnancies and when the mother’s life was in danger).&lt;/p&gt;

FRIEDMAN&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;First the quotes for context:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;1. “Gov. Rick Perry of Texas and Representative Michele Bachmann of Minnesota talk about how climate change is some fraud perpetrated by scientists trying to gin up money for research.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;2. “Remember the first rule of global warming. The way it unfolds is really “global weirding.””&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;3. “when a storm comes, in many cases there is more water available in the atmosphere and rainfall is heavier. When a drought comes, often temperatures are already higher than they would have been 50 years ago, and so the effects of the drought are magnified by higher evaporation rates.””&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;4. “There is only one effective, sustainable way to produce “green jobs,” and that is with a fixed, durable, long-term price signal that raises the price of dirty fuels and thereby creates sustained consumer demand for, and sustained private sector investment in, renewables. “&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Harkin Back to Ronald Reagan:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;5. “The G.O.P. has blocked any price signal and fought every regulation. The result too often is taxpayer money subsidizing wonderful green innovation, but with no sustainable market within which these companies can scale.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Solution since Carter &amp;amp; Oil Embargo:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;6. “The easiest way to do all of this at once is with a gasoline tax or price on carbon. Would you rather cut Social Security and Medicare or pay a little more per gallon of gas and make the country stronger, safer and healthier? It still amazes me that our politicians have the courage to send our citizens to war but not to ask the public that question.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;??? KNOW YOUR BIBLE ???&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;There is a bit about the “sins of the fathers” lasting into the third generation.&amp;#160; The Sins of the Reagan Whitehouse and GOP anti-American policies extend from the 1970’s (fathers) to those born in this millennium.&amp;#160; We will feel and know the sins for 50 to 70 years before they will be address.&amp;#160; By then, our oil reserves will be gone and we will be at the mercy of any Hitler-like OPEC lord who wishes to extend his power to global domination.&amp;#160; Since we would need his fuel to power our defenses, he would not need to risk lives, just turn off the oil faucet and we are on our preverbal knees.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Evangelicals will cheer – they work and pray for an end to democracy and the coming of a messiah that universal Lord … ISA (Jesus) … whose soldiers in white will crush everyone who opposes them … It is in their Book of Revelation and in the OPEC Koran …&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But that is still the “long-term” objective for the GOP &amp;amp; Evangelical Tea-Party types.&amp;#160; Short term it is all about the choice expressed in quote #6:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Would you rather cut Social Security and Medicare or pay a little more per gallon of gas and make the country stronger, safer and healthier?“&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;A few pennies on the price of fuel and we get cleaner air, slow global warming, fund Social Security (so that the Baby-Boomers can enjoy their old age with a degree of security) and fund medical coverage (so people can live rather than die).&amp;#160; OPPS – forgot – TEA PARTY CHEERED when it was said that those who could not afford to, or chose not to, buy medical insurance should be allowed to die if they need emergency health care.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;!The Right-to-Life types CHEERED killing real people!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Remember, the Right-to-Life types are those who want unplanned for, unwanted, children born so they can be deprived of education and medical care … the Right-to-Life types want to inflict harm on those who have yet to exist by forcing them into existence so as to be able to deprive them of anything that would make that existence meaningfully productive.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The GOP &amp;amp; TEA PARTY are in the business of torture and murder – and they want to ensure it continues.&amp;#160; If you doubt that, look who promotes WAR!&amp;#160; And is very careful to make it wasteful of human life – by destabilizing nations.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;-- THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE --&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;it dominates their every action&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;You shall know them by their Deeds/Actions!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;???

they do not wish people (couples) to live there, so they don’t need roads … gee … they can be as poor and backward as they wish.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-3227711935894725859?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/3227711935894725859/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=3227711935894725859' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3227711935894725859'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3227711935894725859'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/09/south-remains-anti-marriage.html' title='South Remains Anti-Marriage'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-7254306146716231532</id><published>2011-09-12T14:32:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-12T14:32:08.879-07:00</updated><title type='text'>THE ECONOMIST missed the reality</title><content type='html'>&lt;h4 align="justify"&gt;Remembering9/11&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;

Before 2001, filers needed to have three or more children to qualify — and to owe more Social Security taxes than earned income credits.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;OK, who was in charge in 2001?&amp;#160; What President was elected in 2000?&amp;#160; Wasn’t it the same Bush Jr. who added $6.5 trillion to the National Debt and doubled the Debt which Clinton had been reducing after Reagan &amp;amp; Bush Sr. doubled it?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Let’s put it another way:&amp;#160; If George Bush and the Republicans had NOT changed the law, and if they had paid attention to the improper use of taxpayer identification numbers in place of the Social Security Numbers, the National Debt would have been paid off and we would now hold a $2 trillion surplus which would have secured Social Security (which is part of the Treasury Notes making up the National Debt) and provided sufficient funds for universal health care – which would pump more money into the economy by making a healthier workforce and removing insurance payments from household budgets and free that money for spending and savings.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But remember the Republican objective:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;-- THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE -- &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-6768419861295862784?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/6768419861295862784/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=6768419861295862784' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6768419861295862784'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6768419861295862784'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/09/who-was-in-charge-when-we-were-robbed.html' title='Who WAS in charge?

 &lt;p align="justify"&gt;At this point, “Grandpa was a Deity” has the potential for challenging the dominant Abrahamic spin-off religions. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;While not the core thesis, the book does mention St. Paul – the originator of the “Gospel of Faith” (&amp;amp; Grace, as expanded upon by St. Augustin) – as a possible self-identified member of our Hg-R1a1 tribe.&amp;#160; It do posit that the Leopard had never changed his spots; he was, and remained, devoutly opposed to any gentile conversion to the Judaism, as espoused by St. Peter.&amp;#160; However, he was in favor of those who followed the Law naturally, or could commit fully to the Laws. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;His doctrine was aimed at those who were aligned with, and would retain adherence to, the pagan faiths.&amp;#160; For the pagans, all he needed to do was change the name Hercules to Jesus and allow them to continue their practices and beliefs.&amp;#160; Thus the subsequent additions to the New Testament – the post Paulian additions – focus on Herculean mythology of a divine resurrection.&amp;#160; Clearly inconsistent with the beliefs of someone who identifies himself as a Hebrew among Hebrews, a Benjaminite, and a Pharisee – a strict adherent to the Laws.&amp;#160; However the Pharisee are also believed to hold a belief in propitiatory prayer for the dead, judgment day, intercession of saints, and merits of the martyrs – all of which are now a part of modern Christianity. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;There is this element implicit in the book: The Hg-R1a1 believed in a rational universe and defined int in terms of Astronomy – something they incorporated into the Book of Genesis.&amp;#160; It is also something which has never been reported on – though the fact that the knowledge was in the Torah, and intrinsically incorporated therein, has become a part of many mystical doctrines ... the Kabbalists and Freemasons come immediately to mind. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Rational mind: An All Knowing, All Perfect, Omnipotent Deity who creates a world that is perfectly imperfect – due to the introduction of elements of Chaos – and which incorporates Freewill, is NOT an interventionist deity.&amp;#160; Such a being does not require agents to do what has been planned and the outcome of which is already know.&amp;#160; The Hg-R1a1 doctrine seems to be that – there are basic laws to which, when followed, will avoid the individual falling into Realm of Chaos, and therefore allow them to be part of the predetermine design outcome.&amp;#160; By creating a doctrine which allowed the individual to avoid the Law, under the guise of gaining salvation, Paul created a situation where they would willingly run into the&amp;#160; Realm of Chaos and self-destruct.&amp;#160; Thus Paul laid the groundwork for the Inquisitions and the Great Plagues which dominated Europe while sparing other regions where the underlying disease also existed. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Paul could not defeat Peter’s efforts to convert the gentiles.&amp;#160; But by joining their numbers and playing upon their inherent belief system – based on the Herculean mythology – he could redirect them into a course of behavior that they would find easier to adhere to.&amp;#160; That behavior would also keep them from blending into the Hebrew culture and contaminating the genetic line which scripture was so strict in developing. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Significantly, the bloodline was designed to promote intelligence among the Levites – which is part of the thesis of “Grandpa was a Deity”, and an integral element in the tracing of the genealogy which inspired the book. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;– For those who are interested in tracing their own Genealogy, “Grandpa was a Deity” will provide a guide to things which may well have more meaning than one might suspect.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;– For the adoptee, especially one who might have some documents which do not seem to agree with discovered facts, “Grandpa was a Deity” is a must read.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;– For those who are Hg-R1a1, you have an opportunity to learn the true significance of your ancestry and the contribution it made to Modern Society and the “Best-of-the-Best” of the world cultures – a contribution which far exceeds the simple spread of the Indo-European language. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;– For those interested in Biblical Mysticism, Religion, and what is REALLY the story behind, or story told by, The Book of Genesis, “Grandpa was a Deity” is, most assuredly, a must read. &lt;/p&gt;

Berliner&lt;/b&gt;&amp;#160; and Bruce J Biddle … interesting.&amp;#160; Interesting in that it makes reference to the various ways those who promote “The Most Harm to the Most People” have been applying their techniques to the American Educational system – for at least 40 years.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;One of the neat things about the destruction of education is the opposition to things that work – and the efforts to undermine realities.&amp;#160; We see this in Washington – do Senators and Congressman really need big staffs?&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Why can’t they do their jobs – rather than party and “press the flesh”?&amp;#160; How much of their year is spent behind their REAL desks – the ones where votes are counted and debates held?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;If we want a balanced budget, put computers on their desks, require they to learn to use them, and have them analyze EVERY DOLLAR they spent.&amp;#160; If it doesn’t put more into society than it takes out … don’t spend it.&amp;#160; The original Constitution stated that those who owned real assets (land) were the ones to pay taxes.&amp;#160; Let’s go back to that – those who own the businesses, the corporations, the million and billionaires, get taxed first – when they are out of money, only then do their employees get taxed.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;GEE – They would very quickly strip the government of waste … if only to lower the amount of money the government needed to function and thus the amount of taxes demanded … it would be a free market economy response. (which they supposedly advocate).&amp;#160; But remember the goal:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;“THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;Providing that excludes those in power.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;Hey guy – Sunday, 1:38 – Anyone addressing that artificial the Debt Ceiling?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-3138037138438547650?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/3138037138438547650/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=3138037138438547650' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3138037138438547650'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3138037138438547650'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/07/on-doctrine-beingnoticed.html' title='ON (The Doctrine) BEINGNOTICED'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-7437981894389797669</id><published>2011-07-30T11:33:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-07-30T11:33:08.806-07:00</updated><title type='text'>FUN FROM FACEBOOK</title><content type='html'>&lt;h4 align="justify"&gt;Employee Notice: New Government Benefits Programs (Just too funny)&lt;/h4&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;by &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1138005331"&gt;Rainbow Hawk&lt;/a&gt; on Wednesday, July 27, 2011 at 12:05pm&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;EMPLOYEE NOTICE: New Government Benefits Programs&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Due to the current financial situation caused by the slowdown in the economy, Congress has decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early, mandatory retirement, thus creating jobs and reducing unemployment.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to Congress to be considered for the SHAFT program (Special Help After Forced Termination).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW program (System Covering Retired-Early Workers).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as Congress deems appropriate.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependents &amp;amp; Spouse) or HERPES (Half earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by Congress.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much SHIT (Special High Intensity Training) as possible.

The game is now to get a bipartisan plan that would raise the federal debt ceiling ahead of a potentially catastrophic U.S. default on Aug. 2.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) asked: “Why is it that the Republicans insist on having the middle class pay the price so the high end is off the hook?”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Obviously a rhetorical question – the wealth need to retain assets to use when the economy collapses.&amp;#160; But the Republicans want the economy to collapse – it must collapse!&amp;#160;

George W Bush than overspent by $6.9 Trillion…. in the process he:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;1.&amp;#160; forced energy prices up, by destroying Saddam Hussein and disrupting Iraqi suppression of OPEC power.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;2. Allowed Bin Laden to escape and live in luxury within eyesight of those supposedly charged with seeking him out.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;3. Encouraged the lending &amp;amp; housing Bubble which caused the current economic collapse.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;4. Almost privatized Social Security – and certainly disrupted, or undermined, it by squandering the Trust Fund capital which was invested in Treasury Bonds … an investment the Republicans now want to default on.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Republicans outsourced critical jobs – by encouraging tax breaks for companies and businessmen who moved their operations to other nations.&amp;#160; The lowered taxes with promises that their actions would “would lead to higher revenues and would force lower spending” … House Minority Leader Steny Hoyer has pointed out, “They did neither.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;We are now in a weekend countdown with FOUR DAY left before the Republicans manage to undermine local economies around the nation … but doing what Bush failed to do: destroy the social security portion of the economy.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;For those who do not understand how it works:&amp;#160; Social Security is “Spending Money” – it is money paid to people who believed it would cover their retirement living expenses; it is pumped into the economy – a structural stimulus package which has been pre-invested for just this period in history.&amp;#160; Every dollar spent will circulate locally 7 to 10 times before it leaves the community where the retiree resides.&amp;#160; Give someone $1000 a month and you inject 7000 to 10000 into their community – at a grass roots level … you create a tide that rises and carries everyone up.&amp;#160; At a multiplier of 7 to 10, every thousand dollars of Social Security generates $980 to $1,400 of revenue into the social security fund …&amp;#160; In effect, Social Security (for those who need it to live on) social security income generates more income for the government than it takes … or it is a zero-sum expenditure.&amp;#160; Unspent money goes to savings and funds personal debt (home loans).&amp;#160; Medical – Medicaid &amp;amp; Medicare – have the same effect … they free personal income for circulation in the local economy, while, at the same time, providing funds to medical workers and improving the health of those retirees who wish to supplement their income by working, or do unpaid caregiver work … or, because they don’t themselves need caregivers, … allowing their families to work…&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Republicans have, consistently, opposed any effort to strengthen our economy … what they have done has been consistent … they promote:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;“THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE” &lt;/p&gt;

this is a question and its answer: “How can so many Republican lawmakers justify pushing their country toward catastrophic default just to score ideological points? The answer can be found in their statements and writings:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;They are constructing an alternative reality far different from that of most Americans.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Contrary to what you have read here – with regard to the destructive results – per the Times article, the Republican controllers&amp;#160; have affirmed that they they seek “The Most Harm to the Most People”: “An arm of the Heritage Foundation sent out a letter Tuesday saying the government should live under the current debt ceiling rather than pass the Boehner plan, ignoring the need to raise the ceiling to pay for bills already incurred. Several right-wing bloggers, notably Erick Erickson of RedState, have threatened brimstone on any errant Republican lawmaker who even considers compromise with the president.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Note that they have specifically advocated for NOT covering debts incurred already.&amp;#160; Basically, they want the system to collapse – after they very openly, vigorously, and intentionally doubled the National debt under Bush.&amp;#160; What did we get for that double?&amp;#160; Aside from eliminating taxes on the wealthy so they could export jobs and tax revenues to third world nations – where they escape taxes and employ child, or defacto-slave, labor?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The current Republican Party has only one goal – the end to America and individual freedom around the world.&amp;#160; How else can the Right-wing Evangelicals get their King, their divine monarchy and theocratic dictatorship? &lt;/p&gt;

Thus they will reduce income in real terms, and compund that reduction with an increase in medical costs for those least able to afford it, but most in need of it due to their advanced age – after, I might note, they served our nation for at least 45 years … paying into the system for the security which is now being deprived them.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;WHAT IS A TAX INCREASE?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Doesn’t it involve the GOVERNMENT taking money that you could otherwise use to cover your living expenses?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Is there any difference between the government taxing you more, or paying you less?&amp;#160; Aren’t both effectively the same?&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Of course there is a difference – in the first case, those who actually have income – surplus income – pay into the system; in the second, those who have paid in for insurance and security see the government default on its lawful contractual obligation.&amp;#160; Thus, in order not to default on debts to those who are effectively billionaire&amp;#160; &amp;amp; trillionaire creditors (nations and OPEC monarchs who couldn’t give a damned about us – but have yet to find a way to destroy us), we are going to destroy those who built and defended this nation for over a half century.&amp;#160; Makes perfect sense.&amp;#160; Pure and natural GOP logic.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;“The Most Harm to the Most People”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;Starting with those least able to defend themselves.&amp;#160;

 &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, it turned out to be&amp;#160; complete nonsense, necessitated by classic GOP fiscal irresponsibility.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;“The total Bush added to the deficit was almost $4 trillion and, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, Bush's two tax cuts and two wars will account for nearly half of public debt projected by 2019.” (Huffington Post)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Now the Republicans are determined to finish the job – they want to destroy economy, by removing the Social Security that was integrated into the retirement plans of half the adult population.&amp;#160; Remember, Bush tried this when he was promoting the&amp;#160; idea privatization&amp;#160; -- so that an economic crash would wipe out the retirement funds… and private sector capitalism would be blamed.&amp;#160;

Probably not. As The New York Times reports, less than 1 percent told its nationwide poll this year and last that abortion was the top problem facing the country. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;But that hasn’t stopped the Susan B. Anthony List from demanding fealty to their extreme anti-abortion views from all in the crowded GOP field to become president. By extreme, we mean taking a pledge to appoint only pro-life judges, cabinet members and top federal executives; cut off federal funding to hospitals and clinics that happen to perform or fund abortions, and support legislation to further restrict what is, let’s remember, a legal option for American women. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Mitt Romney, Jon M. Huntsman Jr., Herbert Cain and Gary Johnson are the only Republican presidential candidates so far who have declined to sign this pledge, and they have been fiercely criticized by the rest of the pack for being insufficiently ideologically pure. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Susan B. Anthony folks promise to use this litmus test as a character evaluation in the coming election. We all should. No one who signs such a pledge — one that defies existing federal law, censors speech and damages health care in this country — deserves to be president. We’ll remember, too.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;==========================================&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“The Most Harm to The Most People”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Like the Tea Party folks, The Susan B. Anthony folks, are interested in violating American ideals for the purpose of inflicting significant harm on the people and the economy.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Maybe you don’t get the connection between abortion, or the so-called “right to life”, and the economy.&amp;#160; Especially since “right to life” is alleged to be a religiously supported – even though anyone who has actually read the Bible knows that the rights begin AT BIRTH, not before; that the fetus is considered murdered only if its loss is the result of a violent attack on a pregnant woman.&amp;#160; If we argue that abortion constitutes such an attack, then the scripture demands that the doctors &amp;amp; nurses be executed for murder.&amp;#160; Fail to do that, and those who call it murder are spiritual accomplices to the crime and so shall also be spiritually&amp;#160; condemned for that crime.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;There is another problem – far more significant – associated with the the “right to life”camp.&amp;#160; They rely upon the Old Testiment, but are generally composed of Christians who claim their spiritual authority through the Pauline Doctrine of Faith … which requires any who cite the Old Testament … the Circumcision, or Laws of Moses … to follow ALL 613 Laws!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Which we all know they do not! Check that pork supper … and the rest of the violations they so openly engage in.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; In Terms of St.Paul, these are the spawn of Satan trying to deceive that those who follow a Faith based approach are supposed to avoid.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;OK – out on religion.&amp;#160; How about economy?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;These are the same people who spend money on weapons of mass destruction, but deny aid&amp;#160; to&amp;#160; the sick, or funding for education – even going so far as to invent funding formulas which deprive those who really need funding.&amp;#160; That weakens the economy by making our worker ill-educated and sickly.&amp;#160;

we don’t risk U.S. default on our obligations because we can’t put politics aside.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, default is what the GOP has been working toward ever since … with their unanimous support … Reagan first doubled the National Debt – and it is something they cheered, and voted for, when Bush redoubled it.&amp;#160; The bankruptcy … default … of the US is one of their Most Harm objectives.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Do YOU see any evidence – much less clear and indisputable evidence – to the contrary? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;“The Most Harm to the Most People”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;The key plank of the GOP 2012 Platform.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-3227678547738053760?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/3227678547738053760/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=3227678547738053760' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3227678547738053760'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3227678547738053760'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/07/budget-crisis.html' title='BUDGET CRISIS'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-5846348817876949143</id><published>2011-06-25T12:44:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-25T12:44:48.561-07:00</updated><title type='text'>New York Becoming Largest State to Same-Sex Marriage …</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Now that same sex marriage is allowed in New York, there is a new reason for the state, and city, to become Mecca to the creative &amp;amp; Intellectuals in the gay community… &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;More important, this should go a long way in stemming transmission of STD’s in a significant segment of our society.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Now if the Catholics Clergy would cease and desist their sexual nonsense, we could see a drop in STD’s among what might well be the most promiscuous segment of our society – a group who, if told NO will instinctively insist the answer is YES and run out to do whatever has been forbidden.&amp;#160; Funny thing there, during each of the routine the child molesting priest episodes that periodically get reported, the common statistic is that fully FIFTY PERCENT (50%) of the Catholic Clergy are Homosexual … so there are a lot of gays who still cannot marry and must resort to other ways to relieve their sexual tension.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Remember the guiding test of motive:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;“The Most Harm to the Most People”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Gays could always get married – just not to each other.&amp;#160; Those who opposed gay marriage might well wish to see laws saying Jews cannot marry Jews (they did once exist) or laws requiring that Blacks shouldn’t marry Blacks, or Asians marry Asians.&amp;#160; Even better, how about: No Republican can marry a Republican … still better – forbid republicans to marry …. after all, a major segment of their leadership asserts homosexuality is -- just like being in the GOP -- a matter of choice … they have therefore legitimized, or held to be Constitutional, the forbidding marriage based upon free choices in subgroup association.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Any how … a survey of Facebook users had 90% supporting a law pasted by only 53% of the NYS Senate … someone is out of touch.&amp;#160; Just five states currently permit same-sex marriage: Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont, as well as the District of Columbia.&amp;#160;

Also recall, or check, that I said it was illogical:&amp;#160; A man who reportedly needed medical care, and regular dialysis, living in a cave?&amp;#160; And the Billions of USA dollars – appropriated, controlled or administered by Republicans – could not find a 6’6 Arab in a nation of 5’6 people; nor could they follow the movements of a expensive medical device.&amp;#160; Ever wonder why we cannot win the war on drugs?&amp;#160; Same idiots at the helm.&amp;#160; Where does the money really go – all that debt … doubled under Reagan, and again under Bush, and now they want to go yet deeper into debt … where is the money going?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;We know – because they want to cut entitlements – that it is NOT going to the needs of the American people.&amp;#160; And … as my previous post explains … it most certainly is NOT being utilized to support local economies – the backbone of the National Economy – through the recognized and undisputed mechanism of the economic multiplier.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p align="justify"&gt;China's one child policy, with the family bias for males, has produced a male surplus within the military age range -- nobody in the media has mentioned it&amp;#160; ... but the Chinese could field a ground force that could take ten to one losses and still over-run any probable combined military force.&amp;#160; That means any opponents would need to us WMDs rather than troops ... depleting general populations rather quickly.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Those who are drawing from our system for &amp;quot;Entitlements&amp;quot; are actually keeping the society going ... if we had universal healthcare, we would eliminate the depleting economic effect of private insurers and cut real medical costs ... As to entitlements, they are spent locally and therefore play into the economic multiplier effect (every dollar introduced into a healthy local economy circulates seven to ten times before leaving it).&amp;#160; Having to pay for insurance removes funds from the local economy and send them to the insurance company to be invested where there is the highest return -- generally in off shore or outsourced businesses -- erasing that multiplier.&amp;#160; (&amp;quot;The Most Harm to Most People&amp;quot; effect promoted by Bush et al) &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Give someone a dollar for entitlement/social security/etc and they spend it locally -- no foreign investment -- it circulates so as to become $7 to $10 of economic growth and eventually reaches banks which invest it in local loans, or it leaves to by the materials that are purchased in local stores.&amp;#160; As each entitlement dollar circulates, it produces tax revenues which bring the cost of entitlement to zero and, in a healthy local economy, generate a surplus tax revenue over and above property taxes.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The baby boomers spend or save for the next generation -- as they pass, the value they accumulate passes to raise standards for next generation ... in terms of property, we need immigration ... people to buy real assets (vacated homes) and add additional productive younger bodies to the economic multiplier cycle.&amp;#160; Immigrants relieve the burden on their own countries and so, effectively, raise the per capita standard of living of of their former country through the act of leaving it.&amp;#160; Once her, as taxpayers, they contribute to Social Security and keep that account healthy.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;If we want to hurt the society, first privatize Social Security (had Bush achieved this, stock market &amp;amp; property bubble would have whipped out Social Security plunging nation into real a Depression); second, privatize Healthcare coverage through insurance companies whose motivation is to deny benefits -- thus making the society sick and diverting funds from local economies.&amp;#160; Finally, block immigration and mandate the birth of children who cannot survive, or are unwanted, or are born in to homes which cannot support them -- while cutting funding to education and thus ensuring a non-productive future genberation.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&amp;quot;The Most Harm to Most People&amp;quot; summarized in terms of already well publicized GOP &amp;quot;Conservative&amp;quot; policies.&amp;#160; Also not that the &amp;quot;fiscally responsible&amp;quot; Conservatives -- ala Reagan &amp;amp; Bush each doubled the nationa debt, while the spendthrift Clinton etc administrations generated a surplus.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-3881284038738525486?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/3881284038738525486/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=3881284038738525486' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3881284038738525486'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3881284038738525486'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/06/how-it-will-work.html' title='How it will work'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-5828965010364124157</id><published>2011-06-01T18:13:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-01T18:13:05.031-07:00</updated><title type='text'>What is Personhood &amp; the harm it is intended to promote?</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;I have often illustrated that the moral and rational objectives of any political act can be reduced to answering the question of which position results in “The Most Harm to the Most People”? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Consider the initiatives being – once again – proposed by those who, under the guise of opposing abortion, wish to redefine personhood as beginning with conception.&amp;#160; Their true agenda is to inflict untold harm on as many people as possible, and impose a condition where moral imperatives will cause the destruction of our society – or, if we are to believe scripture, result in the damnation of the vast majority of “faithful”. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Consider this:   &lt;br /&gt;1.&amp;#160; Old Testament Scripture defines birthright as beginning with birth, and the termination of a fetus only counts as murder, if the termination is the result of a brutal assault upon a pregnant woman.&amp;#160; Absent those two conditions, at a time when abortions were common, scriptural law said nothing about the act of abortion being wrong.&amp;#160; Moreover, the New Testament makes no mention of th practice of abortion – which was common in both Hellenistic and Roman society.&amp;#160; It is therefore clear that the source of scripture had no objection to abortion – even abortion which sterilized, or even costed the life of, the mother.&amp;#160; Thus the moral imperative just can’t be supported – especially when it means redefining life as scripturally defined.&amp;#160; Obviously, those who go against scripture are immoral – at least in terms of those who claim scripture as their moral guide and basis for their behavioral mandates.    &lt;br /&gt;2.&amp;#160; Defining personhood from conception means issuing a death sentence for a woman who has an&amp;#160; Ectopic pregnancy – which, under any circumstances, cannot be defined as a viable pregnancy.&amp;#160; So the purpose is obviously change then law so as to kill those women.&amp;#160; That is, in North America, 19.7 of every 1,000 pregnancies, or roughly TWO percent of all pregnancies – as is, a single factor which currently accounts for 9% of all pregnancy-related deaths.&amp;#160; The GOAL IS TO KILL one in fifty woman who seek to have a child.&amp;#160; That is the chief objective of individuals like Keith Mason – the individual identified as a driving force behind the current movement.&amp;#160; By having the law changed, Mason and his cohorts can commit mass murder.&amp;#160; CONSIDER the scope: Each year there are approximately 4 million births in the United States; if, for the sake of simplicity, we count them as the only pregnancies, than this change in law will cause EIGHTY THOUSAND deaths annual – or the equivalent of, at least, twenty-nine times the deaths caused al Qaeda on 9/11.&amp;#160; In short, Mason et al are promoting more deaths than Bin Laden could conceive of through any single action, or series of actions. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Then there is the issue of the children produced.   &lt;br /&gt;A.&amp;#160; Since only about half of all fertilized eggs&amp;#160; actually result in an ongoing pregnancy, there is an issue as to how we account for those that spontaneously abort.&amp;#160; Do we have a coroner’s inquest for each, so as to determine the cause was “natural” and not “murder”?&amp;#160; &lt;br /&gt;B.&amp;#160; Of those that survive, as we have bestowed personhood, do they now gain legal rights?&amp;#160; Are they citizens?&amp;#160; And if conceived outside of United States territory, are they aliens who must then be naturalized – regardless of the nationality of their parents?&amp;#160; Conversely, are they citizens if concieved in the United States – regardless of whether or not mother was only in transit through US Territory at the time of conception?&amp;#160; Get the feeling we would be clogging the courts with conception cases?&amp;#160; If you do you have realized the 9/11 economic agenda of Mason and his associates – cripple the American economy with necessary legal actions related to citizenship rights.    &lt;br /&gt;C. In terms of crippling the economy, there is the matter of healthcare, education and a multitude of other costs associated with children whose parents might, or might not, want to assume support obligations (enforcement again brings the courts &amp;amp; social service agencies into play).&amp;#160; If we wish them to be productive, we need to pay for education – which Mason’s supporters, uniformly, want to decrease.&amp;#160; As to medical costs, Mason’s associates and related politicians, uniformly, want to decrease medicare and medicaid to the point of requiring people to purchase their own medical insurance – meaning that the poor will receive no medical care and will increase in numbers.&amp;#160; This will increase crime and disease – thus, again imposing a Bin Laden style 9/11 economic agenda designed to destroy American society. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The change in “personhood” is therefore both scripturally immoral and a deliberate terrorist act aimed at the destruction of America – by imposing&amp;#160; “The Most Harm to the Most People.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-5828965010364124157?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/5828965010364124157/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=5828965010364124157' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/5828965010364124157'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/5828965010364124157'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/06/what-is-personhood-harm-it-is-intended.html' title='What is Personhood &amp;amp;

therefore they are justified in suicidal “Sacrifice”, or bombings, which take innocent lives of their own people.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The idea and act of suicide is forbidden under Islamic Law.&amp;#160; Thus those religious leaders who support it &lt;em&gt;MUST&lt;/em&gt; justify it in the name of self-sacrifice.&amp;#160; It therefore follows that they are either right or wrong in their assertion – and every Jihadist is betting their immortal soul on that problem.&amp;#160; But the justification does not explain away, or excuse, the strongly forbidden murder of innocents.&amp;#160; Thus, absent the latter being excused and justified through the literal meanings in the Koran, there is no justification to save those whose actions kill innocents who were foreknown to be where the bombs were detonated – it is even less justified if there are no pre-identified infidels there. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Hence this is not the act of the religious – but rather it is that action of irreligious deceivers and servants of “The Great Satan”.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In that regard, it is in the interest of those who wish to destroy Islam that the suicide bombings occur.&amp;#160; The bombers are doing the work of&amp;#160; “The Great Satan” – work designed to further the Satanic destruction of the Innocent Faithful.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The body counts, and details of the victims support this conclusion:&amp;#160; The alleged Jihadists are, in fact, servants of those who would destroy Islam.&amp;#160; Therefore, they are to be praised by all who would see the death of the Islamic Faithful – those who oppose Isa and his army.&amp;#160; They and their supporters are eternally damned in the eyes of The Prophet (Blessings be upon him) and knowingly accept their fate.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Those in the West who wish the destru7ction of Islam are, without question, those who Trained Osama Bin Laden and allowed him to live in comfort in Pakistan for the past decade.&amp;#160; Obviously, they no longer control the Whitehouse – ore represent the individuals in the GOP who openly declared Bin Laden irrelevant to the alleged “War on Terror” which was, in fact, a war on Islam supported by Bin Laden and his Al-Qaeda followers.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Look at this objectively:&amp;#160; How many resources are devoted to the destruction of, or inflicting harm upon, those who live peaceful Islamic lives?&amp;#160; How many resources are diverted from making those lives better?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Those who represent evil engage in actions which bring hardship upon there own – to a degree far in excess of any brought upon the alleged “enemy”.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;On all levels, the Islamic Theologians are confronted with the ultimate need – the need called for at the time of judgment &amp;amp; reward – to excuse the massive harm being imposed on the faithful by those who murder innocents.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;There shall be no “eternal reward” – no 72 virgins – for those who … like Hamas, the Taliban, and Al-Qaeda … are covertly working for The Great Satan.&amp;#160; No other reward but His eternal gratitude and the torture they volunteer to be subjected to.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;There are NO Islamic Theologians who can challenge this reality.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;

Unfortunately – since we already know they are crackpots, there is no sustained damage to the causes they support.&amp;#160; However, because they are crackpots, the world is a more dangerous place, and those who would like to believe in a Divine Father, an Allah, a Creator, are reduced to their level of ignorance.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In other words – those who are neither Jihadist nor Right-Wing Christian, nor American Republican Conservatives … all of whom practice a doctrine based upon The Most Harm to the Most People … in any misguided form they can utilize semantics to twist and justify.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Bin Laden is gone, reportedly, Afghanistan has only 100 of his followers –- 100 suicidal idiots devoted to the commission of random murder – how long will it take for them to be eradicated and the people allowed to get on with their lives?&amp;#160; How long before America decides that we are wiser to spend our money here, improving lives and creating a model for developing nations, rather than in those nations murdering its people?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;2012 is an election year in America – if we see a move toward the Right, and victories for the Republicans, we declare open warfare on the peace-loving people of the developing world.&amp;#160; If we fail to bring our troops home, and fail to allow them to enter the civilian workforce where they can grow our economy, we declare that we wish the death of the American Dream.&amp;#160; WE DECLARE!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;I have expressed and declared my position, so the responsibility is now solely upon YOU to declare yours!&amp;#160; The death of America – which will take two decades from the time you affirm, with your vote, and possibly your voice, your desire for this nation, this dream, to end.&amp;#160; Those who are now your children, those below the age of having a voice, and those who are, or will be, your Grandchildren, will hold you responsible for the world in which they shall find themselves.&amp;#160; With the decisions you make – to be silent or speak out, and in speaking make it clear that you at least have some miniscule amount of courage of conviction -- YOU will decide what that world shall be like.&amp;#160; Will it be a world of energy efficiency, free of dependence upon fossil fuels?&amp;#160; Or will it be a world of random mass murder and religious or social bigotry?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Will it be a world in which America Leads, or must learn Chinese and Arabic (so as to beg for money), while being dependant on food and products from foreign shores?&amp;#160; Will it be a world in which our hatred of immigrants results in a depletion of new ideas and minds with which to apply them?&amp;#160; Will it be, as the Right-Wing has demonstrated it wants, a world in which “only in America” refers to a hatred of science, and love of Creationism?&amp;#160; Will we speak of Divine Punishment as an explanation for our downfall?&amp;#160; Our why earthquakes and other natural disasters irradiated a quarter of our nation when they destroyed the nuclear power plants we insisted upon building -- and allowed to age to the point of deterioration – in the precise areas we knew to pose the highest risk to the most people?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;We ( !YOU! ) are making the choice, as I write.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;As you read this, YOU are making the choice.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;My Bet as to what that choice is?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;and &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;A REPUBLICAN LANDSLIDE IN 2012.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-1886779721169230582?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/1886779721169230582/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=1886779721169230582' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/1886779721169230582'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/1886779721169230582'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/05/query-for-times.html' title='Query for the Times'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-228716135176855103</id><published>2011-05-03T12:15:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-03T12:15:55.947-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LD 1046: “An Act To Amend the Application of the Maine Human Rights Act Regarding Public Accommodations.”</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Well, Osama Bin Laden is dead – so says his DNA and the photos.&amp;#160; A few years ago, it was reported that Osama required regular dialyses – a fact which would explain how they could make an exact match so fast.&amp;#160; Dialyses requires unusual levels of blood-work, thus an abundance of samples which, in preparation for future need, could have been checked against family members (such as his sister, who recently died in Boston).&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Whatever filtering system they used to establish a quick, debilitative,&amp;#160; answer to the true identify of the suspect.&amp;#160; But whatever the specific technology involved was, it pales in comparison to that possessed, here in Maine, by the sponsors of HP0781, LD 1046: “An Act To Amend the Application of the Maine Human Rights Act Regarding Public Accommodations.” &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Paul LePage is in Augusta – even though more than sixty percent of the voters wanted someone else.&amp;#160; OK, record shows that I had assumed LePage would be a loser, with a higher percentage of the finally tally than he actually got.&amp;#160; Obviously, without either the expectation of a veto-proof vote, or the Governor’s support, the in introduction of LD 1046 – which specifies “... entity to restrict rest room or shower facilities that are part of a public accommodation to the use of single sex facilities to members of a biological sex regardless of sexual orientation.” – is an intentionally meaningless waste of legislative time and taxpayer money.&amp;#160; Which, because the Bill specifies “biological” rather than “physiological” gender identification, brings us to the DNA issue and the ability of those charged with enforcement to determine if an individual has a double X-chromosome, or is XY.&amp;#160; It also allows no exception for those whose physiology and chromosomal structure are, because of a rare genetic occurrence, mismatched during the gestation period.&amp;#160; Thus, being biologically, hence factually, one gender, while having the outward physical appearance of belonging to the opposite gender – which, aside from sterility, might be unidentified throughout their lifetime. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Thus we have an interesting legislative problem.&amp;#160; To enforce such a change in Equal Rights, it would be necessary for law enforcement to have unrestricted access to both YOUR DNA and YOUR medical records – every time you enter a public or private rest or shower facility, you could be arbitrarily asked to PROVE that your physiology matches your and biology.&amp;#160; On a practical basis, this is akin to the Mediaeval Inquisitors, or Witch-hunter Priests, having the right to strip an individual to seek out “Witch Marks” or blemishes associated with the power of witchcraft.&amp;#160; In reality, back then it provided a great opportunity to strip attractive women and grope their naked bodies.&amp;#160; Now the legislation would allow the legislatively approved inquisitors to demand a woman, when seeking to enter a restroom, to lift her skirt and drop her draws.&amp;#160; Of course, even if the dress matched the gender, any indication of surgery (in the appropriate region) would warrant a denial of entry into the facility.&amp;#160; Denial would, of course, also follow any refusal to comply with the request to strip. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Is this, in any way, the intent of the modification of law?&amp;#160; As the perverts who proposed it, and those who have subsequently sponsored it, what there motivations are.&amp;#160; More important, ask them EXACTLY how they intend to enforce the change.&amp;#160; How will they establish that the biological match&amp;#160; required for facility usage actually exists?&amp;#160; How is it to be done without a comparison of DNA and medical records with physical appearance? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;This legislation has no non-invasive basis for enforcement.&amp;#160; Nor does it do anything more than create a blanket authority for the examination of otherwise private medical histories – to the DNA level, that level necessary to determine the biological, the chromosomal, gender of an individual against whom the legal change will be applied.&amp;#160; In short, LePage and his team are seeking to dismantle your right to privacy at it’s most fundamental level – your genetic make-up, your DNA.&amp;#160; The vote to affirm LD1046 will reveal the others who are seeking to attack your privacy; once you see how they vote on LD1046, you will understand their other votes, and legislative histories.&amp;#160; That will bring you a long way toward a full understanding of why our great state is having financial difficulties, and has a record as having a “bad business environment” – people don’t do business where their fundamental rights, and their right to privacy, is constantly under attack.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, there is another possible scenario:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Can you see then legislature enacting a “follow-up” law – one which specifically prohibits the requesting of medical proof of gender.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;No both perverts and non will gain immediate access to the opposite gender facilities.&amp;#160; Since “Biology”, as opposed to “Sexual Orientation”, is the key -- and there is no allowance/requirement for medical evidence – one need only CLAIM to be transgender to gain access to a facility:&amp;#160; BY CONSTITUTIONAL LAW,&amp;#160; they cannot deny access if a guy, asserting he is a transgender gal -- therefore biologically female – seeks to use a female only facility.&amp;#160; It would, effectively, be illegal and a clear violation, for the facility operators to challenge the individual.&amp;#160; All it would take is for one transgender individual, whose chromosomes match the facility, to be challenged and then sue.&amp;#160; Thereafter, anyone could use any facility, regardless of their outward appearance.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;More fun … how about the gal who likes gals, or the guy who likes guys, and is transgendered to match their interests?&amp;#160; LD1046 gives them private access to a sexual orientation preference which is counter to the biological reality of their birth.&amp;#160; Effectively promoting the sexual orientation bias that the backers of the legislation purport to oppose.&amp;#160; ARE THEY HYPOCRITS OR JUST COMPLETE IDIOTS?&amp;#160; We already know LePage &amp;amp; his backers belong to the idiot minority … so … asked and answered.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-228716135176855103?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/228716135176855103/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=228716135176855103' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/228716135176855103'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/228716135176855103'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/05/ld-1046-act-to-amend-application-of.html' title='LD 1046: “An Act To Amend the Application of the Maine Human Rights Act Regarding Public Accommodations.”'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-8176590020107506967</id><published>2011-05-02T13:11:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-02T13:11:25.917-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Osama bin Laden Dead</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;“Al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden was born in 1957 into a rich Saudi family, inherited $300 million at the age of 11, and was killed in his mansion, belying the myth that poverty breeds terrorists.” by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu &lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Half the people who ever lived are alive today.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Throughout history there have been concepts involving&amp;#160; resurrection and reincarnation.&amp;#160; In the Jewish faith there is the belief that every soul, which would ever exist, was created as part of the creation.&amp;#160; They were placed in a LIMBO, a storage or waiting area.&amp;#160; As a body became available, a soul would be sent to occupy it – only to return to limbo until all the souls had the opportunity to experience life, and make the decisions which would determine their ultimate fate.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;In the Hindu, we reincarnate to finish what was started in, or correct the mistakes of, a past life.&amp;#160; In some cases, it is held that we reincarnate as other creatures.&amp;#160; Maybe that creature becomes the storage vessel for the limbo – the wait until the souls have all been used and the tine when they are judged on their actions.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The specifics of the belief systems vary, but the basics are there: We are responsible for our choices; that responsibility is within defined in terms of some basic guiding principles, or commandments, or laws, or doctrines, or whatever one wishes to call them.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;In the New Testament, The Book of Revelation talks of a “Judgment Day” ... a time when 144 thousand -- twelve thousand from each of the twelve tribes –- shall be passed without challenge.&amp;#160; Then the time will come when Jesus will act as lawyer for those who “come in his name”, and we are told that there will be some will come, but He will not know them; therefore he will decline to represent them.&amp;#160; He might even condemn them.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;There is one thing that is, philosophically, certain: Limbo will have exhausted its souls and they shall all be brought back, before they can be judged.&amp;#160; In that context, let’s look again at that old Poster saying: &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Half the people who ever lived are alive today.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;If all the souls get two bodies – the first for the first life, the second in which they get to either, enjoy and continue their prior life (a life in which they were “good”, possibly earning a place among the 144,000, of the non-Judaic equivalents); or the get to either make amends for wrongs; or, maybe, just to finish what they had started.&amp;#160; Once that second life has been lived, the souls will be judged -- those deemed worthy shall resurrect, a third time, into a world with no pain or strife.&amp;#160; They will enter a world where they get to live the “good life.” &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;If you believe the theological texts, their world will, eventually, succumb to the remaining edges of “Free will” and “Choices.”&amp;#160;&amp;#160; We will succumb to the curse that accompanies the blessing of Divine Freedom and Experiment in consciousness.&amp;#160; The world will finally end.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;In the Hindu, the pre-Judgment period – the time when the souls all return for the second round – is the &lt;em&gt;Age of Kali …&lt;/em&gt; which is due to begin within our lifetimes, in the next year or so.&amp;#160; The Mayan had the age begin on the 21st of December, in the year we refer to as of 2012.&amp;#160; So think about that statement:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;em&gt;“Half the people who ever lived are alive today.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;If there are two bodies, for every soul – even though we do not know the precise number of souls that were initially created – we can be sure that, when they all return,&lt;em&gt; “Half the bodies that ever existed, would be in existence.”&lt;/em&gt;&amp;#160; Each with one of the Limbo souls.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;So if it is approximately true … that, &lt;em&gt;“Half the people who ever lived are alive today.” &lt;/em&gt;… than what is really being expressed is an estimate of a mathematical reality … &lt;em&gt;“Half the bodies that ever existed, are now in existence.”&lt;/em&gt;&amp;#160; If it is true, as the astronomers have announced, that our astrological perspective is progressing into a new&amp;#160; constellation … that, as the 60’s song (from the Broadway Production, HAIR) proclaimed … that this is the dawning of “the Age of Aquarius”; … if it is true that this is the Age of Kali, the Mayan new age of change, … than it follows that we are about to enter into the period proclaimed, or predicted to be, the “final”, transitional, judgment.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;What wars and horrors shall we see as part of the birthing process which will bring about the new age?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-5630337117132571510?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/5630337117132571510/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=5630337117132571510' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/5630337117132571510'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/5630337117132571510'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/04/weird-theology-or-end-us-near.html' title='Weird Theology – or – The end is near.'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-7268343840385022881</id><published>2011-04-18T10:53:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-18T10:53:17.361-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Reverse Robin Hood tax deal</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Huffington Post 18 April 2011: “The estimated cost to the government of that portion of the tax deal, $42 billion this fiscal year, exceeds the stated $38 billion value of the savings from the federal budget cuts lawmakers approved last week.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;So basically, the tax deal resulted in the rich robbing the poor – and the nation as a whole.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;The nation is robbed because more people will be sick – lacking medical care – and therefore be unable to work, or have net earnings(income) that is subject to taxation.&amp;#160; More people will be deprived of education, and therefore will not be able to compete inn the global marketplace – thus damaging trade and our “balance of payments” … resulting in a net outflow of capital … again reducing the tax base to a point where the deficit will, despite budget reductions, grow at an extraordinary rate.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Back in the 60’s, when Feminism was emerging and had joined with the other “equality” movements, my mom asked me how felt about&lt;em&gt; “female equality.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;My response was typical of how I viewed the world – and still do:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“If women want to be my equal,” I responded, “I’ll sit at home, exempt from the draft, or other ‘compulsory’ responsibilities, and allow them to support me.”&amp;#160;&amp;#160; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Female superiority has always been a given.&amp;#160; At least it has in all things which do not involve the unthinking application of superior physical force.&amp;#160; Have you ever considered that, when we view meditation –- the blanking of the mind and absence of movement – the primary symbol is a Monk, a male; yet when it comes to Wisdom, the primary association has ALWAYS been female.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;We look to the western Bible – Eve who brings “&lt;em&gt;SIN&lt;/em&gt;” to the world.&amp;#160; But what is that “sin”?&amp;#160; That she will feel pain during birth?&amp;#160; (Inferring that there was no pain before her actions.)&amp;#160; And that he will need to toil and sweat to survive?&amp;#160; (That he is being punished for her actions?&amp;#160; Or, is it his stupidity in &lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; being the one who could analyze the facts as presented?&amp;#160; Adam is the one forced to work to support Eve’s intelligence and analytical skills.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In scripture, the tribes of Zebulon &amp;amp; Issachar are granted the same symbiotic relationship – which, in their roles as merchants and scholars, places them above all the other tribes.&amp;#160; It is from their territory and history that King David emerges … and one thousand years later, Jesus also emerges and is shown with his twelve male apostles, the incomparable Mary (who many ancient scripts, including several NT versions, depict as his wife, and the only one with &lt;em&gt;TRUE&lt;/em&gt; faith and the one to who he “&lt;em&gt;returns.&lt;/em&gt;”).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In terms of gender defining DNA, whereas the male y-chromosome is unique to the specific male line it defines, the female X-chromosome appears twice in women and once in men – a woman’s dominant X goes to her daughters and is also transmitted to her sons – who then transmit it to their daughters (her granddaughters),where it effectively communicates her “g&lt;em&gt;enetic knowledge&lt;/em&gt;” to influence a third level of descendants that is effectively lost to males.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In terms of the Biblical representation, there is a Jewish Midrash (effectively a back-story underlying, or explaining elements of, the “official” story) which tells of Eve hearing the warning of death, but, over time, there came a time, when she observed the “Serpent” (at the time a legged serpent, or form of lizard) was able to eat the fruit and live.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Presumably,during the preceding century, creatures which ate from that specific tree had died.&amp;#160; Now there was one who, not only lived, but, developed the power of intelligent speech.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Seeing this, Eve realizes what Adam was blind to: The tree was no longer poisonous, it’s fruit was good, and was, in fact, capable of improving intelligence.&amp;#160; In effect, the sequence of events argues that the Creator was actually cool with people acquiring knowledge – or the poison would not have dissipated.&amp;#160; Thus the “sin” was not in the fruit, but in the disobedience to orders –- men (Adam) were created to follow blindly without the facility to&amp;#160; think about changing circumstances; whereas women were &lt;u&gt;created to&lt;/u&gt; consider changes in their environment, and analyze how it would affect them and their futures.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In terms of world events, look to the Islamic world in which woman are repressed – notice the most repressive nations are the most violent and produce the fewest individuals with discernable intellect.&amp;#160; In fact, their leadership always seems to arise abroad –- while domestic readership is marked by a tendency toward self-destruction and annihilation (genocide) of their own people.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Where are women valued - educated – and&amp;#160; we still see that third world status prevails?&amp;#160; What rational women (or even irrational one) would, as an Islamic Imam recently has, declare that suicide involving the murder of innocents, and those on pilgrimage to Holy Islamic Sites, is a form of self-sacrifice that would earn a divine reward?&amp;#160; Where is there any vestige of&amp;#160; intelligence being demonstrated by a religious leader - making what should have been a considered religious legal pronouncement - which violates MULTIPLE levels of direct quotes from the Prophet and a millennium verses of the Quran?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Of course, Christian, and some Jewish, leaders tend to be at least as ignorant as that Imam – ultimately, with the same destructive consequences.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;In America, the next few decades will be interesting.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Will she seek to elect leadership like Bush &amp;amp; Reagan – those who prize murder and harming their fellow humans above all else – even the welfare of those they are appointed to represent?&amp;#160; Or will she raise to power those who have intelligence, analytical ability, and a facility to adjust to changing circumstances?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Given the current Congressional nonsense, I’m inclined to favor a developing viewpoint which projects a total collapse of America – one that culminates in a natural disaster killing a third of the population and reducing those left to a third world status that lasts at least a full generation.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; If we impose a Biblical analogy, that “generation” will be marked by the period it takes for all who remember the old nation to die – before the birth of the new, more rational one.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-3970192546407170476?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/3970192546407170476/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=3970192546407170476' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3970192546407170476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/3970192546407170476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/04/woman-factsymbol.html' title='The Woman Fact/Symbol'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-5579492217171175016</id><published>2011-04-08T15:00:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-08T15:00:06.768-07:00</updated><title type='text'>THINGS NOBODY ELSE will say</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;How many people remember back to the days when environmentalists complained about the excessive wrappers of common goods?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Continuing with our example of Food Stamps:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;When they were stamps, and therefore, their use easily noticed&amp;#160; at check-out, to buy lobster was often viewed as a sign of how the money was being wasted on “luxuries.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Curious thing: Those who made the comments about lobster were generally overweight and had, or were on the way to developing, coronary diseases related to LDL &amp;amp; fat intake.&amp;#160; They would make the comments with nice FAT slabs of PORK in their cart.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;Another curious thing:&amp;#160; They would never make those comments when the Food Stamps went to buy pork – even though the pork was generally more expensive&amp;#160; than the lobster they were criticizing.&amp;#160; In other words, it was that the Food Stamps were being used for purchasing good tasting healthier and cheaper alternatives.&amp;#160; They were also being used to support an industry recognized around the world – after all, who every hear of a State Name proudly associated with a Pig product?&amp;#160; Maine Lobster, Idaho Potato and … where does that heart destroying, LDL saturated, pig product come from?&amp;#160; Who boasts of inducing the heart disease that is&amp;#160; killing people – what state?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;We abhor anyone who is responsible in their choices and respectful of their own bodies.&amp;#160; It is for that reason that we make fun of those who are vegan, or, God Forbid, vegetarian (oh right, the western God didn’t forbid it, He commanded that “the fruit of the trees shall be your meat”) or like their vitamin or mineral supplements.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;OH WELL, nobody cares what the Bible says.&amp;#160; At least they don’t care about the half which has the laws – unless they can corrupt them.&amp;#160; They LOVE the second half – where all the laws are set aside.&amp;#160; But even there, they can’t seem to be consistent in their reliance upon “faith”, the hypocrites need to run to the law to justify their bigotry and hatred.&amp;#160; When it suits them, they even run to it justify for health – when the Faith doctrine of St Augustan makes it clear that it is the soul and not the body which must be tended to – pork sucking hypocrites. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="justify"&gt;We love stupidity so much we want our nation to live in it – and will work hard to outdo all other nations in proving we can become the most ignorant nation on earth.&amp;#160; Doubt that?&amp;#160; Which do we cut first: Our Armies and ability to destroy whole regions of the planet with nuclear weapons, or Education and Health Care – both of which make our young better defenders of our freedoms for longer periods of time?&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;“Connick v. Thompson is about the wrongful conviction of John Thompson for robbery and murder after prosecutors in New Orleans withheld evidence from Mr. Thompson that would have cast serious doubt on his guilt. He spent 18 years in prison and came close to being executed. He was exonerated after a prosecutor fessed up. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;After Mr. Thompson sued, a federal trial court found the office liable for failing to train its prosecutors about their constitutional duty to turn over evidence favorable to the defense and awarded Mr. Thompson $14 million in damages. Now, by a 5-to-4 vote, the conservative majority of the Roberts court has overturned that ruling, saying the office can’t be held liable for a sole incident of wrongdoing.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Clearly a case of immoral CONSERVATIVE (probably Right-Wing Christian) Judges defending the right of a prosecutor to commit willful murder.&amp;#160; The only real question is:&amp;#160; How Many Has that Prosecutor Murdered during his tenure?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;We know that Conservatives love to murder the innocent and are out to destroy this nation – that’s pretty much a proven fact – given that they have (under Reagan &amp;amp; Bush) twice doubled the National Debt without the average citizen gaining anything from it.&amp;#160; We now see them working to destroy Labor Unions and reinstitute a Slave-Serf system of labor.&amp;#160;

Hell – Energy &amp; Mass.</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Heaven &amp;amp; Hell – warped or perverse concept. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Physicists postulate that the idea of Conservation of Energy;   &lt;br /&gt;Nuclear Energy is predicated on Einstein’s formula relating Mass and Energy;    &lt;br /&gt;It is said that nothing can travel faster than light;    &lt;br /&gt;Einstein postulated that Energy equals Mass time the Speed of Light squared    &lt;br /&gt;– Mass accelerated to a speed equal to the Speed of Light times the Speed of Light. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Obviously, Einstein &amp;amp; Nuclear Energy have something in common - they establish that a Mass can travel faster than light, and that the mass will disintegrate into pure energy when the speed of that Mass attains the square of the Speed of Light.&amp;#160; This makes it equally obvious that the Speed of Light can be exceeded – but at the cost of the cohesive structure that represents Mass.&amp;#160; Thus, we can state that “nothing can travel faster than light” without its defining Mass disintegrating until all that is left is pure energy.&amp;#160; An exercise in basic logic – and possibly semantics – supported by the demonstrable existence of nuclear energy. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Why do we assume that our ancestors could not work out the same logic – without having the need to demonstrate the most negative physical manifestation of that logic? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Conservation of energy: Try thinking in terms which assert that “what exists cannot be destroyed – it can only be converted into a new form.&amp;#160; Now get a bit spiritual and assert that the soul is pure energy driving a physical form.&amp;#160; As such, even though the body can pass into different physical forms (decompose into compost, ashes-to-ashes, dust-to-dust), the soul is pure, indestructible, energy. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If we think in those terms, the idea of reincarnation makes perfect sense – sometime after the decay of a previous host, the pure energy which powered it (represented by the term “soul”) occupies and powers a new physical host.&amp;#160; There is no death – only transition to a host most suited to the energy.&amp;#160; In terms we can relate to: Consider the various types of electrical Batteries. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Batteries come in different shapes, sizes and power ratings.&amp;#160; Now, what if they could be recycled in a manner which either improved their energy (unitized untapped potential, reserves or over-capacity) or disposed of (recycled to other uses) depleted resources and employed remaining reserves.&amp;#160; In terms of reincarnation, the soul would occupy a higher, or lower, state of existence based upon its energy.&amp;#160; If the energy is throughly depleted, the soul becomes pure mass – dirt, dust, compost – which emerges as the receptacle for energy (a soul). &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;At one end of the spectrum, there is a finite amount of pure Energy; at the other end there is a finite amount of Mass.&amp;#160; For either extreme state to be reached, the other must cease to exist.&amp;#160; We define Pure Energy as GOD – any utilization of any portion of that “Divine Energy” would cause a decay that results in the existence of physical Mass.&amp;#160; A Thought, A mental Word, is all that is needed to create the physical – and eventually the Universe, with all its complexity, arises from a single electron, or, eventually, an atom of hydrogen whose mass is disrupted in an attempt to release, and recover, the energy which initially created it. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The idea of Heaven and Hell – irrational.&amp;#160; But the idea that every action has a reaction – that every action has a consequence – totally rational.&amp;#160; It is irrational to assert the pointless expenditure of energy, but totally rational to assert an eternal change of state which is deemed inferior to the one presently occupied. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The ancients spoke of reincarnation and the body returning to the earth from which it arose – totally rational, and a one sentence statement of what it took me many paragraphs to posit before I reached that simple statement.&amp;#160; Those who posited the concept of a Purgatory – eternal damnation in Hell – and its corollary, a life in Heaven, were talking to the intelligent fools of their time.&amp;#160; The fools were intelligent enough to recognize that there was always the possibility that one could get away with harming others – that crimes went unpunished.&amp;#160; These same fools were smart enough to grasp that all energy continues – thus they could believe, regardless of their actions, their soul would continue to reincarnate.&amp;#160; There was no rational absolute argument to assert that these souls were expending their energy in a manner which would turn them into compost, so the idea of judgement came into play.&amp;#160; The fools could understand the physical judgment they sought to, or assumed they would,&amp;#160; escape between their commission of the crime and their eventual death (transition to the next life, or reincarnation).&amp;#160; Divine Judgement interjected the idea that they would be reincarnated into an existence more horrific than any current (worldly) judgment they could anticipate.&amp;#160; Moreover, the idea of a Divine Judgment added a second level of punishment – you would be killed here, and then, more quickly, be subject to the eternal “reward” for your actions. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Rationally, the theological concept, designed to control the behavior of fools, is irrational.&amp;#160; The Universe does not waste energy, and it would be a total waste of energy for there to be a Purgatory, or hell – especially not when there is soil, or the Mass resulting from the full disposition of negative energy in the form of matter which can then be utilized to bolster positive energy resources.&amp;#160; There are those who share energy, and those who steal it – the thieves become food for the generous.&amp;#160; In one sense, the Productive and Beneficial Meek are powered by the Aggressively Disruptive – and the world of those “Meek” is Heaven; therefore Hell is eternally serving as the dirt upon which thye trod and from which their food is grown. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If GOD is pure Energy, and Hell is pure Mass, than Heaven is the Universe that is equally balanced between the two – it is the ancient Egyptian MAAT judgment of the soul ... so dedicate that the weight of a feather is sufficient to tip the scales toward becoming pure Mass.&lt;/p&gt;

Consider this:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;All of recorded human history has been based on a disputed assumption – on disputing the assumption – that there is an after life.&amp;#160; That there are gods and demons … that there might be ghosts of “souls” which fail to transition – or refuse to – or come back.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;We bet our lives on the position we take.&amp;#160; Yet the basic philosophy common to all intelligent cultures is neutral.&amp;#160; That philosophy?&amp;#160; “Don’t do to another what you would not have them do to you.” … the basic “do unto others” … &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Consider this:&amp;#160; We demand that there was a primal force, a deity, which began the circle of existence.&amp;#160; But there is no reason for that entity to still exist.&amp;#160; If the job were done right, than the universe is self-perpetuating.&amp;#160; If the first force was incompetent, or imperfect, than it would need to remain to adjust and judge (to “quality control” its product.&amp;#160; therefore, any deity that now exists must be les than perfect, less than “all-knowing” and basically incompetent and unworthy of any praise.&amp;#160; That would explain all the evil, sadness and misery in the world.&amp;#160; It would also refute the premise of many religions – hence they are false religions.&amp;#160; They are false because the believe in “an eternal, perfect and all knowing, deity.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If there are no deities; if the universe began with one that has long passed, than it’s evolution is rational and the outcome would be perfection – the elimination of anything which is self-destructive.&amp;#160; That is, the elimination of anything which invites, through its own actions, another to utilize against it some destructive action.&amp;#160; “Others doing unto, as was done to them and theirs.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Whatever we do – if done first, or not a return “in kind” --&amp;#160; invites retaliatory actions which are, for all intents and purposes, the same as those we take.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If we kill, we invite being killed – in fact, by the rules of the philosophy – we expressly invite another to kill us.&amp;#160; But if we are generous, feed, cloth and provide shelter to another – than we are inviting others to feed, cloth and shelter us.&amp;#160; If we protect another, we invite others to protect us. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;… It is basic “do unto” stuff.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;How do you live your life?&amp;#160; What, through your actions, are you INVITING others to do to you?&amp;#160; What have your actions AUTHORIZED others to do?&amp;#160; No judgment – beyond your own willingness to lie to yourself.&amp;#160; No need for a divine being, an afterlife, ghosts, goblins or demons.&amp;#160; No need for any of that.&amp;#160; It is the outcome that matters – what is left when each of you has given, and received, in kind … when all that is left are those creatures who do no harm.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;“My belief is true; your belief is false.”&amp;#160; The idea behind declaring others Heretic.&amp;#160; If they are, so are you – when discussing contrary viewpoints only one can be right … but both can be wrong.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You have placed your bet … both as to what you are to do, and how you are to do it.&amp;#160; Heretic!&amp;#160; Who?&amp;#160; It is in the act you, or they, invite upon themselves through the actions they exhibit toward others that will determine the truth.&amp;#160; Do we NEED a heaven or hell?&amp;#160; Or simply to clean the garbage from this cycle of existence?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;A perfect deity would create a universe that would exist without its interference – or involvement.&amp;#160; A perfect deity would create a universe that would evolve to perfect – self cleaning, self judging, and self excreting that which disrupts … or doesn’t care about … itself.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Logically: 1. There had to be a starting point, which we label primal deity, primal universal parent.&amp;#160; It must have been perfect, and therefore known the outcome of its creation; if perfect, than the universe is perfect and on track – therefore, there is no third party judgment, no apocalypse, no eternal punishment (a pointless waste of both time &amp;amp; energy that is inconsistent with creation).&amp;#160; There is only existence, or non-existence – we exist to create that which will exist; to assist that which will create that which will exist; to exist in harmony with all that exists.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;The floor is swept.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-6694984420860462674?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/6694984420860462674/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=6694984420860462674' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6694984420860462674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6694984420860462674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/03/sweeping-kitchen-floor.html' title='Sweeping the Kitchen Floor'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131166864900441243.post-118799907859528466</id><published>2011-03-26T13:37:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-26T13:37:44.229-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Earthquake for 2012</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;I have heard America called &amp;quot;a Christian Nation&amp;quot; -- the Right-wing Republicans who now rule then legislatures of various states are &amp;quot;Tea-Party&amp;quot; and the same Right-wing which, when in control under Reagan &amp;amp; Bush, has twice doubled the National Debt -- and now uses the result of their fiscal destruction of the nation as an excuse to destroy its social institutions. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Curiously, Medical Care is a prime target -- its destruction, along with the undermining of education, supported by Right-wing Fundamentalist Christians.&amp;#160; This is curious, because Jesus commanded his followers to tend the sick.&amp;#160; But America is a &amp;quot;Christian Nation&amp;quot; ... just as Europe was when the Black Plague settled there and found a welcome home.&amp;#160; One must wonder how America rates against other nations when it comes to Cancer, Heart attacks, and other preventable health risks. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;AND now to Japan and its earthquake.&amp;#160; Pick a Ricter number 8.8, 89. 9.0 -- there is an intensity difference ... but all at at the maximum end of the scale.&amp;#160; The power of the earthquake was midigated by the fact it was off the coast and out to sea -- the water cushioned the force ... though by converting it into a tsunami wave.&amp;#160; What would happen if it had been on land?&amp;#160; Or well inland?&amp;#160; What if it had been on the San Andres Fault or in New Madrid Missouri? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Never heard of an earthquake at New Madrid Missouri?&amp;#160; It was in 1812 ...

 &lt;p&gt;“To hold a man down in the mud, you need to get in the mud with him.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Why did the GOP win?&amp;#160; Why the Tea Party?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;America might have wanted a Black President – beat the alternative with Palin as VP&amp;#160; and a heartbeat away … &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;But does America want a Black Man – technically a Malato with an IQ vastly higher that that of the electorate - to achieve historic greatness?&amp;#160; Obviously NOT!&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;To bring him down, to ensure he has no noteworthy legacy, they saddled him with GOP idiots.&amp;#160; They made sure that he would need to deal with those who promote “The Most Harm to the Most People”.&amp;#160; Of course, maybe they just wanted a man of genius to put them in their place – I hope that is true.&amp;#160; The alternative is that the average closet racist forgot the lesson of the 60’s – they forgot that, before they could ruin his place in history, they would need to get up to their necks in the mud of economic disaster.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;They forgot – or didn’t care – that the economic woes, the mud of economic disaster, was the doubled deficit of the Reagan GOP, and the redoubled deficit of the Bush years.&amp;#160; FOUR TIMES the necessary deficit – and for what?&amp;#160; A lot of dead Arab&amp;#160; women and children, the destruction of nations, and the empowerment of Al Qaeda – who’s leader Bush declared irrelevant in the imaginary war on terror.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;REALITY CHECK: There has been no more “terrorist” activity (domestic bombings by those who hate government institutions) in the past decade than there has been in any single decade within any generation.&amp;#160; The turban on the head, the Weatherman, Oklahoma, Waco – how many murders killing woman &amp;amp; children?&amp;#160; Are they less the terrorist murder because they wear an FBI, CIA, or Whitehouse jacket?&amp;#160;

 &lt;p&gt;A somewhat idiotic Canadian Drama about a soul collector for Satan who gets permission to try to save the souls of his clients during their last 48 hours on earth.&amp;#160; The problem is the premise and its target audience ... you need to wonder how it survived three seasons on City TV Vancouver, City TV Toronto, AXN/Fantasy (Sky), Canal Z Quebec, City TV Alberta, and City TV Manitoba.&amp;#160; But then, Canadian TV also produced “Da Vinci's Inquest” – which ran seven years, but was no where near as bad.&amp;#160; However, there does seem to be a downward spiral represented by these two shows. Obviously the level of Canadian creative mentality leaves something to be desired. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Have you ever taken the time to THINK about beliefs?&amp;#160; Especially the “catholic (universal)” beliefs that involve a Heaven and Hell – reward and punishment – in a universe created on freewill within the context of survival of the fittest (meaning whatever is most appropriate for both the prevailing, and successor, environmental conditions).&amp;#160; Or do you simply accept the bullshit of Dogmatic – Dogma based – organized western religion? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Guess I’ll need to make it easy for those mindless ones:   &lt;br /&gt;1.&amp;#160; Start with a Deity, a God, “The Name” – or, as referred to in Jewish, HaShem.&amp;#160; By definition all things must start somewhere and that place is defined as “God the Creator.”&amp;#160; In ancient religions, this is deemed to be the self-created entity who creates all other things – but, itself, has no creator.&amp;#160; It is the ultimate logical, rational, intuitive and deductive conclusion: The Deity worth referencing is, within our limited abilities, both eternal and self-created.    &lt;br /&gt;2.&amp;#160; We can take as a “GIVEN” that all things have a stating point and therefore any who deny the definition, or identifier, associated with that starting point are either irrational, or simply idiots.&amp;#160; If they wish to dispute that point, they need only explain the absolute beginning of all things – without utilizing the definition associated with the “Creator Deity.” &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Here it is in a nutshell:   &lt;br /&gt;If we are the product of an all-knowing deity, than that deity knows the outcome of our choices.&amp;#160; It does not need to interfere, punish, or reward.&amp;#160; If it is all-powerful, than, by definition, nothing can do anything without its express permission.&amp;#160; That permission is “express” because the deity is all-knowing – and would know beforehand of the intended action and so decide to either allow it, or stop it. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Since the entity is also defined as “perfect” and having “perfect knowledge” – the basic design of the universe was perfect and everything which transpires within it is also a perfect part of the ultimate design and the intended outcome. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If we look at the freewill options available in the context of possible multiple universes which reflect each and every choice being selected, the result is that there are infinite choices and they will, of necessity, create choices that are equal and opposite to “bad choices”.&amp;#160; That is, bad choices create paths which are, ultimately, negated by other choices – no need for eternal punishment for something that has no eternal effect on the desired outcome purpose. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If you consider a perfect (man-made) design (arches, bridges, tunnels, etc):   &lt;br /&gt;All forces either combine to achieve the ultimate purpose, or they cancel themselves, or are canceled by other design elements.&amp;#160; We live in a universe where Newton’s Laws apply: ex. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.&amp;#160; Things at rest, or in motion, continue until acted upon by an external force. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;In a perfect design there are no forces which do not serve a purpose – and there is no wasted energy.&amp;#160; What UNIVERSAL DESIGN purpose does the waste associated with eternal reward or damnation serve?&amp;#160; UNIVERSAL DESIGN PERFECTION WITHOUT WASTE.&amp;#160; To have a Hell, the ORIGINAL intent must have been to make those specific creations who suffer, suffer.&amp;#160; To have a Heaven, the ORIGINAL intent must have been to make those specific creations who enjoy, enjoy.&amp;#160; Keep in mind – we are dealing with an all-knowing perfect entity.&amp;#160; The Creator knows who will be where – regardless of the route they take to get there. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If we consider ourselves just elements of the outcome, than our choice makes sense.&amp;#160; Does the blacksmith, forging a piece of iron is to a fine steel sword, really care which atoms are lost to sparks and which to the final blade?&amp;#160; Or is the goal to have the most perfect blade?&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Effectively, the blacksmith gives each atom free choice as to be where it is – first when it moves as raw ore in the mining, then again during the smelting, and finally as the atoms become excited by the flames and move to be struck by the hammer – or escape as the sparks to become waste on the floor. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;There is no Heaven or Hell – there is only the final perfect outcome and the rules that allow us to get there.&amp;#160; Programs like The Collector are premised on stupidity – the idea that the creator is an idiot who has no idea of what the outcome will be; who has designed a system in which is less than the self-correcting systems any competent engineer could, and does, design.&amp;#160; The Collector, (and the rest of that genre) is premised on the Catholic idea of an idiotic and incompetent Creator – one who has no idea what the outcome will be and so has constantly to interfere (or take advice in the form of response to prayers for action) with the course the design takes. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;About the only cheerful thing involved in modern belief system – that idiot DNA, the DNA of those who believe in an inefficient universe, and attribute its design to an incompetent Creator, will be eliminated from the final gene pool.&amp;#160; Who knows, maybe humanity will be eliminated – maybe humanity is only a tool, the hammer, to shape the final universe, or the ore which will be mined.&amp;#160; But, for now, the only certainty is that those who believe in a Heaven &amp;amp; Hell believe in an idiotic deity – it shows in their theology ... it shows in their statements whose premise relies upon asserting the need for lessor deities with the power to alter the design in ways that contractdict the ultimate purpose of the overall design..&amp;#160;&amp;#160;

 &lt;p&gt;Here is an interesting development:&amp;#160; After viewing the show I got curious and went to Ancestry.com and did some research.&amp;#160; The 1870 Census which was identified as revealing her ancestor, David Carle (or Carll) identified him as millatto and his wife, Lousia, as white.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I got curious about her family – which was not disclosed – and looked for possible marriages and other connections.&amp;#160; I could not find David Carll (Carle) prior to the Civil War – but the family next door was named APPLEFORD&amp;#160; and the had a daughter with the same name, Louisa, as David’s wife.&amp;#160; Also next door was a Peter Carle – who was Black.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Interesting fact: Peter was IRISH.&amp;#160; Yep, he was a Black Irish immigrant who appears to have arrived in the USA when he was 16. Here is a sample of the data:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/TU35G7WQBtI/AAAAAAAAAJA/O4SbJhvD9y4/s1600-h/venessa%20williams%20ancestor%5B6%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px;

&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;We have the record Census and Civil War records as they were shown on “Who do you think you are”, and the interesting coincidence of names … Note too the property value is $200 – the amount paid from the enlistment bonus.&amp;#160; My guess, a reexamination of the sales documents and prior titles would show that David bought a section of the property which was owned by his father-in-law – or, more probably, from his widowed mother-in-law “Freelove Appleford”.&amp;#160; And, as a boatman, was working with his brother-in-law, George W Appleford.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As for there being an Irish-African:&amp;#160; Keep in mind that African troops first entered the British Isles with the Roman Legions.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;

 &lt;p&gt;“UNFOUNDED” and yet the reality has yet to be addressed.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Florida is at sea level.&amp;#160; Many of it highest points above sea level are exceeded by the height of its average resident.&amp;#160;

They should have read my earlier blogs … the ones saying the unemployment rate was bogus and distorted by the baby-boomers who will be counted as unemployed while making the decision for, or awaiting, retirement.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The baby-boom has distorted conventional wisdom and statistics.&amp;#160; To strengthen the economy, the government needs to increase medical coverage and benefits to those on Social Security.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Every dollar of disposable Social Security will be spent – !DUH!&amp;#160; the retired do not save for their retirement, they accumulate for the next big-ticket purchase, or they spend spend spend.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;They spend on small things – like meals at the mom&amp;amp;pop restaurant down the block, gifts for grandkids, small and major stuff to make their lives more relaxing, and hobbies or pass-times,&amp;#160; Every dollar goes into local economies and circulates seven to ten times among the taxpaying providers.&amp;#160; That yields seven to ten taxable dollars … and you only need an effective 14% tax rate to get the dollar back into the Federal kitty … that doesn’t count the 8-12% that gets paid into those taxpayer’s Social Security account.&amp;#160; Basically the workers servicing the retired pay the benefits to the retired and underwrite the Federal spending as well …&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Ain’t the math of economics weird?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;“Something for nothing and the chicks are free.”&lt;/p&gt;

The prefecture’s working-age population has shrunk from over 1m in 1990 to 874,000 in 2008, a result both of the exodus and a declining birth rate. The city of 1.45m is shrinking and ageing so fast that one of Nagasaki’s main department stores, Tamaya, has closed down its children’s department and stocked up on undergarments and hearing aids. With shrinking investment, and fewer jobs and young families, new house-building has fallen by half in the past ten years.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Demographics emerges as a reality in Japan – which has always been the case … at least, for the past 400 years, since it opened its doors to the world.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;We are an aging globe … sectors will fall … if Washington wants to keep the American economy moving, it will work to increase Social Security payments.&amp;#160; This means increasing the incomes on which it is applied.&amp;#160; Ideally, ALL earned income shall be subject to the withholding – the actual rate can be cut (SLIGHTLY).&amp;#160; The objective would be to double collections to allow for a 25% increase in payments. {no that isn’t bad math – remember that there is a health component to pay too.}&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;HOWEVER – the most harm to the most people is the doctrine of government.&amp;#160; The far right wishes to destroy this nation – therefore they will move to cut, or, at least, freeze, Social Security benefits.&amp;#160; They will move to deprive people of medical care – thus milking funds from the economy and depositing it in offshore pharmaceutical companies, endless foreign wars, and other wastes of funds.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;…. the most harm to the most people &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;…. the most harm to the most people &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;…. the most harm to the most people &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;…. the most harm to the most people &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;!!!!!!!!!!!

Could it have been better?&amp;#160; Or is this the &lt;em&gt;“best of all possible worlds?”     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;I awoke with thoughts of the enormous surplus on my EMT credit card, and amazed at the fact I even had one.&amp;#160; Who could I feed with it?&amp;#160; How fat had I gotten over the past year or so, and still amassed such a balance to my monthly food allowance.    &lt;br /&gt;I awoke thinking how nice it would be to be GOD – on Earth – and have perfect knowledge.&amp;#160; To know which stocks would rise and which would fall.&amp;#160; To know which cards to play; which slots would pay off next; what words to write so that my books would outsell both &lt;em&gt;“Harry Potter”&lt;/em&gt; and the &lt;em&gt;Bible&lt;/em&gt;.    &lt;br /&gt;To be able to dictate a book – a perfect book – from start to finish while on my way somewhere to do something that would be pleasurable.&amp;#160; To email the recording to a secretary with instructions to send the finished manuscript to my publisher – and know that it would be a best seller.&amp;#160; That I could write of events before they happened, and be assured that they would.&amp;#160; To know that the writing would only change that which would ensure that the events of the story would play out as they were written – cause and effect embodied perfectly within perfect knowledge.    &lt;br /&gt;And then the thought:&amp;#160; I am GOD and therefore have perfect knowledge and therefore know who will wish for what and what the outcome of granting that wish shall be.&amp;#160; I would know that the cause of a mass murder next year was an event which happened, a decision which was made, on a country road a thousand years ago – the decision to turn left, or right, or proceed ahead.&amp;#160; Because of that decision, someone lived, or maybe died – or maybe they met, or maybe missed meeting, the love of their life; because of that meeting, or missed meeting, children were born, or not born, and from there arose a series of lives and deaths, meetings, discoveries, opportunities had or missed, which brought about the events next year.&amp;#160; That one decision – like an ancient butterfly flapping its wings to cause a storm on the other side of the globe –set in motion a series of events and interactions which resulted in a decision that lead to the violent, unforeseen, death of many.    &lt;br /&gt;The best of all possible worlds – a world in which an all knowing and all powerful entity could change any event, take any action, and know with absolute certainty what the outcome would be.    &lt;br /&gt;Imagine that you, or I, were that entity.&amp;#160; Imagine that we could take any action and know its outcome with absolute clarity of purpose and result.    &lt;br /&gt;Imagine the ramifications.    &lt;br /&gt;Imagine that we could have such power, such knowledge, and then imagine the world as it really would be – as opposed to that immediate, fleeting and sublimely irrational, idea of “perfection.”    &lt;br /&gt;You would never have to yell at your child – before the child was conceived, before you met the mate with whom they would be conceived – you knew every argument, every problem, every mistake that would be made and that there was absolutely nothing you could do to change it ... because your knowledge of the outcome of a choice was perfect and without error.    &lt;br /&gt;Imagine that you would need to weigh the errors, the problems, against the outcome and decide that certain things &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;u&gt;MUST&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; occur – for, if they did not, you could not get from here, to there, and you would have no choice to remain here (where you are) for eternity.    &lt;br /&gt;Imagine that there is no sin – that you lied to your creation so it would not realize that it is you lying to yourself to allow events you know must happen to happen.    &lt;br /&gt;I could not awaken to win any lottery I played.&amp;#160; Nor could I write any book that would be so perfect that it would be immediately the unsurpassable best.&amp;#160; At best, I could allow someone to say something that will pass, or be considered a classic and so relegated to the corner of academia to be read, studied, and shunned with bursts of teenage scorn by those generations who followed.    &lt;br /&gt;Imagine a perfect path.    &lt;br /&gt;Imagine a perfect world.    &lt;br /&gt;Would there be death?&amp;#160; Could there be death?&amp;#160; And without death, could there be life?&amp;#160; No more children – they consume and consumption requires the death, or destruction, of something.&amp;#160; No more adults – they too require support networks that consume and destroy.    &lt;br /&gt;Of course: We could live without eating or the need to excrete waste, without aging, without disease, without clothing.&amp;#160; We could live without work – because there would be nothing to produce.&amp;#160; We could live knowing everything that could and would happen – but that would force us into inaction ... wouldn’t it?&amp;#160; There would be no purpose to actions whose outcomes are perfect and without doubt.    &lt;br /&gt;I awoke dreaming, thinking, and my mind followed the path it always follows ... trapped in a realm where there is a deity and we are it.    &lt;br /&gt;How to escape?    &lt;br /&gt;Perfection, an absence of error, a lack of imperfection, is paralyzing – and exceedingly boring.    &lt;br /&gt;But what if my life were my death?    &lt;br /&gt;What if to live I must reproduce, re-experience each of the possibilities anew through the next me, that next generation?&amp;#160; What if I could give birth to myself and spend my time as my own fetus?&amp;#160; I know, would know, that I am me ... but the process could be experienced anew.&amp;#160; All the possibilities – all the options and alternatives explored in the process of being who I am, was, will become.    &lt;br /&gt;Predestination?    &lt;br /&gt;You have no choices to make because the outcome is a given.&amp;#160; And yet!&amp;#160; Yet you explore each path – turning right, left and proceeding straight ahead – so that every action with led to imperfect is experienced and every path ... the sole ultimate path ... to perfection is derived again, and again, through each successive generation.&amp;#160; Infinite generations, taking infinite time, to explore the infinite&amp;#160; possibilities of that which made me who I am.    &lt;br /&gt;A circle of time and experiences – no beginning, and without end.    &lt;br /&gt;I awoke dreaming this dream.&amp;#160; And it told me that this is not only the best of all possible worlds, but that the idea of the Buddha, the ultimate attainment of ultimate knowledge within ones lifetime, is to simply recognize that everything that has, or will be, done is so that every possibility can be known and experienced.&amp;#160; There is neither good nor evil ... there was no &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;“original sin”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – there could not have been.&amp;#160; Perfect knowledge precludes anything having happened that was not foreknown and determined that it must happen for the events which follow from it to have happened.    &lt;br /&gt;I awoke as I went to sleep – thinking and exploring the possibilities.&amp;#160; I determined that my dream should be positive or negative.&amp;#160; That events should be logical, or illogical.&amp;#160; That it is totally logical for events to be totally illogical – and it would not, necessarily, be logical for me to prove that presumption.    &lt;br /&gt;I awoke fat and flatulent.    &lt;br /&gt;I woke up dreaming and living the life that made sense in terms of the life I had chosen to live.    &lt;br /&gt;It is, as the scorned philosopher realized, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;u&gt;“The Best of ALL Possible Worlds.”&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;#160; It is, if only because I have the power to make it otherwise and for some reason, without consuming enough to deplete my EBT Card – but in fact accruing a significant credit balance – I awoke fat and flatulent and feeling sorry for those (of me, of my alternative states) who will never awaken and do not understand why.&amp;#160; They do not understand why the only universally apparent law is the admonition embodied in “&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;u&gt;the Golden Rule”&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; … It is us, that is, ourselves, we are doing it to.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt;I awoke to experience a new day.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4131166864900441243-6708319472692104639?l=mystic-voice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/feeds/6708319472692104639/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4131166864900441243&amp;postID=6708319472692104639' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6708319472692104639'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4131166864900441243/posts/default/6708319472692104639'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mystic-voice.blogspot.com/2011/01/i-awoke.html' title='I Awoke'/><author><name>Bill</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04576717557005032111</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fqTllE1MnFg/S1zp54zZcfI/AAAAAAAAAHc/Fk6Jg4_v9Bw/S220/_DSC07685_WLL.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
