Seven years ago, we were inspired to write this post. We've reposted it and added refinements because it is still applicable today! Don't get it twisted. This forum is not about telling anyone "what" to do. We must come to the understanding that "how, when and why" we do the things that we do, can be just as important as "what" we do. Our reasoning behind these posts is simply about pointing people towards solutions. EVERYTHING here is written in chalk. NOTHING is written in STONE. As Cardinal Richelieu is often quoted as saying; "if you give me six lines written by the hands of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him." We are not exceptions here; all influencers should live in fear of the noose. The purpose of this platform is to present spiritual perspectives and to post, practice and perform the marvels of principles. In the past, by having been a victim of the conditions we were raised in and the conditioning that that it inflicted upon us, we are compelled to help others dealing with similar circumstances. We will briefly expound on the first six letters of the "alphabet soup" being fed to us today. "A" which is for the controversy behind abortion laws. "B" which is about birth control and contraception. Aren't these two similar issues under different names? "C" which is for the conduct and cursing which is becoming acceptable for leaders and constituents across society. "D" is for lack of decency with the distractions and diversions that overwhelm our attention spans. "E" is for the Epstein files that are gradually being lost in the sauce. "F" is for Dr. Fauci and the ongoing investigation into his conduct during the covid crisis. Many of the topics and writings we present may appear complicated or convoluted. In reality some are. Spiritual logic does not conform to our "natural" thought processes. Although some writings will be simplified by using analogies and comparisons to nature and various scientific processes, they are just that. The gravity and seriousness of "some topics" we discuss will require an understanding that comes primarily through inspired epiphanies from revelations from contemplation and study. "Other topics" will just require a "childlike" mentality to grasp. The biggest obstacle we all face in grasping new truth is ingrained former beliefs and biases. This forum is about practicing principles that we can take responsibility for, and upholding standards that enforce and follow natural order! We have no editors interested in, qualified or willing to investigate; validate or verify the spiritual principles we present here. The comments from our followers serve as editorials. The promised we give is to always thoroughly research topics and deliver information that can then be applied and practiced from the principles presented. "The proof will be in the pudding." The main asset we offer is the ability to honestly and openly share our experiences, insights and studies along with the revelations we've derive from them. The universe always responds to actions, and we intend to act on behalf of those whose voices may not be being heard. Our first priority is the ENVIRONMENT, in all aspects, spiritually and naturally. This is followed by HUNGER and POVERTY. We are compelled to also address RACISM, RELIGION, POLITICS, FINANCES, ECONOMICS and CONSCIOUSNESS. In addition to these prominent topics is overall HEALTH. Our Health is much more than the traditional biomedical perspectives that focused on our body's ability to function. It includes all of nature and simultaneously encompasses our mental, physical and spiritual well-being. We outline methods and provide practical applications of principles to everyday dilemmas and issues. This is how we discover, define and practice the principles we attempt to describe. There are laws that are always present around us but sometimes we are not aware of them. In addition to this, there are principles applicable to every circumstance and situation we encounter. Once we become privy to the "Law of Principles" we only need the wisdom to apply these principles properly and create HIGH STANDARDS.

WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER WHETHER WE KNOW IT OR NOT

Many times, progress is not about "what" we do but "how" we do it. Sometimes it's mainly about "how" we see and sense things. However, in every instance, it is also about "what" we believe. Our perspectives all work hand in hand with our "practiced" beliefs. Believing and doing are synchronized with our ability to create (think) and manifest (act) in our life's mission! THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM HUMANITY FACES TODAY IS LOSS OF PURPOSE AND MISSION. Many of us do not know "where" we're going, "what" we're doing or "why" we're doing it! We are simply following the course that life seemingly has laid out before us. Our destiny belongs to us individually. Empowering, encouraging, exposing and including one another in discovering our individual callings is an endeavor of a lifetime. The concept of what "purpose" does, and is, must be socially accepted but spiritually endowed. It cannot be legislated or decreed through judicial or religious fiat. Although our governments attempt to address ethical and moral issues through legal means, the spirit in which they were authored can get corrupted and lost over time. Let's site two instances of meaningful and well-intentioned legislation. Affirmative action and DEI are examples of how governments tried to accomplish this. "Affirmative action" and D.E.I. are not the same. While both aim to promote fairness and equal opportunities, they were spawned from different movements in different times, operate in distinct ways and serve different purposes. In a nutshell, Affirmative action stemmed from the civil rights movement and its design was to promote equal access and representation in society. The time of its inception was in the 60's when advances in multimedia accelerated the visibility of the civil rights movement. This plainly exposed social injustices, and the government was forced to address "systemic" discrimination. It was based primarily on race and included other minorities. The evolution of Affirmative action has now expanded beyond its original scope of intent. The sexual revolution intertwined with the new LGBTQIA movement has embedded itself within the traditional moral standards of society. This movement has morphed into and operates off of a new theme called "intersectionality." This is the framework behind the design of D.E.I. The advent of D.E.I. which stands for diversity, equity and inclusion, was designated basically to establish, fund and promote nondiscriminatory/inclusive environments. The differences between the two are subtle. Although both original intentions were honorable, the results have also been morally and socially divisive. Integrating and mixing is not as simple as it seems. Violating the "principles of mixing," is easy if we are not aware of them or are ignorant of how they operate. People tend to fear the unfamiliar and the unknown. "Things" that we do not understand are often resisted by default. We can never win an argument against ignorance or "What a fool believes." Whether it's mixing drinks; muddling, mixing chemicals; blending, mixing audio, batch processing or baking a cake; ingredients, there are formulas to follow. There are some "things" that we cannot and should not mix together, like oil and water. Without having established societal standards, we will fall victim to a modern day "Jerry Springer" type zeitgeist. Standards need to be applied personally and locally. Without acknowledging or factoring in accepted standards we are likely to allow our own personal biases to distort our opinions and views. As human beings we are prone take sides in ignorance and without being fully informed. Applying principles to standards allows them to be refined in their expression. The way any of us sees "things" is a byproduct of our education and experiences. Beliefs can and will deceive us if they are not properly scrutinized. Ideally, in light of factual truth, our opinions should be easily altered if we were only open to being wrong. This should be the standard in osteopathic medicine and all science. Unfortunately, it is not! Allopathic practices, disguised as scientific breakthroughs are being introduced without being thoroughly tested today. The true standard that principles themselves operate upon are without bias. By design, they can bring scrutiny to any policies or practices without directly targeting the people and institutions enforcing them. Standards built around principles create "tools" that allows us to evaluate sensitive issues while removing the biases of our personal perspectives from the equation. If implemented properly, these "tools" uphold standards for forming judgements. Unfortunately, it is our personal judgements that form the foundation of our beliefs. Our beliefs are what empower the energy of our actions. There are "principles of power" that allow us to give our voice to other people and "things" that need one. Children, both born and unborn, plants, animals and nature itself only have the voice we give it. We are obligated to form a more perfect union among and between humanity and every part of nature. This is a part of our universal calling and mission. If we don't like something we should work to change it rather than pick up our marbles like spoiled children to quit or leave. There are "principles" built around the "law of exchange" that have made it evident that coexistence is imperative to us all. "Exchange" is the way of life! Without exchange; breath, commerce, evaporation, photosynthesis pollinizing and many other processes required to sustain life will cease. Whether we are aware of it or not there are multiple natural and spiritual "laws of interdependence" that are a byproduct of the "law of exchange" at work. Laws operate in layers and some laws beget other laws. As a species, we should have progressed to a point in life where we all have the understanding that life is inextricably interconnected, and that interdependence is key. We, as mutually adaptable and interrelated species are all dependent upon each other's abilities to continually grow, adjust and evolve together. Whether we acknowledge it or not, Principles (LAWS) rule the day. We are all subject to the laws of the universe. When it comes to gravity it's easy for us to adhere to its "principles of interaction" or suffer the consequences. What about the laws of harmony, synchronization and interdependence? Whenever we work against these laws, we eventually will suffer the consequences whether we are aware of it or not. The weather has always been an indication of atmospheric conditions both seen and unseen! Every satellite launch, every pollutant, every war and everything we do plays a role in our natural and spiritual environment! We will always directly or indirectly reap and/or face the ramifications of "principle activating actions." Even if we don't our children will. We can pollute our lungs with tobacco smoke and our planet with toxic waste all we want to. Contradicting principles within literary guidelines like the Bible and other holy writ is wrong! The Bible is not really a book. The Bible can be better described rather than defined. The Bible is a literary collection that includes analogies, history, laws, letters, principles, stories and voyages compiled in a volume. The Bible is a book of standards we can apply and use for living a "Godly" existence. The "volume" boldly and repeatedly proclaims the "universal principle" that man cannot help but reap what he sows! Although practices may change principles are permanent!

PRINCIPLES TAKE PRECEDENCE AND PRIORITY OVER ALL OTHER PRACTICES

Picture
​Let's begin with the most important principle of all principles. By starting with what's called and broadly classified as the "Laws of Principles," sometimes called or named "Principles of Manifestations," "Principle of Principles," and "First Principles," we can begin to make sense of the forces at play that seemingly govern our lives. Today, the notably popularized "Laws of Attraction" have recently become one of the most prevalent and prolific concepts or laws whose applications, practices and principles have been promoted. It is also historically, and probably among the most misapplied and misunderstood laws or principles ever. When defined by the "law of principles" it takes on a different meaning. It is important to know that laws and principles although synonymous differ in application and expression (what they describe). We distinguish them apart when defining them through their expression. Laws are often expressed as single equations, while principles are usually expressed as conceptual statements. A "law of principle" is a "universal principle" that describes the fundamental nature of a "thing," the relationships between various "things," or its universal properties. It can also be a description that explains these relationships and principles. The principle we're focusing on in this post is called the "principle of definitions." This fundamental principle is often ignored in our everyday lives and dictionary's. This principle states that definitions without reference to, or comparison of, how it interrelates with the rest of life are shortsighted. This is why we concentrate on and stress the spiritual aspects of our existence and its association with our mind. This principle means that all individual actions have a collective effect. Defining anything in terms of its relation to other "things" associates everything. Knowing that no "thing" is an island, is just as important as knowing that no man is an island. Practicing this principle is similar to creating an environmental impact statement for every issue we encounter. Just as The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) required by law an environmental impact statement, likewise we must consider the impact of any of our actions upon the rest of nature and the world. "Principles of inclusion," allow us to view our interactions in ways that change our perspective on life. It is not possible to see or know the full effect of the small things we do, but as a part of the "big picture" they are significant. As the alpha species of our ecosystem, we are obligated to consider every conceivable effect possible. Whether seen or unseen we have a responsibility to all of creation. Let's make one thing perfectly clear this is no secret; life and mind operate through spiritual energy. Natural principles are not hidden, mystical, deep or complicated. They are open and available to anyone seeking them. Applying principles allows us to create standards consistent with reality. Once principles are discovered or uncovered, they can be applied across multiple disciplines. The true beauty of the "Pool of Principles" is that they are all being illustrated by someone, somewhere, somehow in one way or another every day. The Bible is full of examples of both natural and spiritual principles interwoven within every character, parables, and story contained in it. 

EVERYONE HAS AND PLAYS A PART

​The universe targets us individually with a customized, tailored lesson plan specifically designed for whatever circumstance we will face. God is faithful and will not put on us more than we can bear. The principles inside theses individual "Packages of Principles" don't expire, can be taught, shared and used over and over again. Whatever the universe gives us has an unlimited warranty and no expiration date! Here's a new principle we've just became aware of in our practices. We'll call this principle "The Principle of Focus" or the "there's no such thing as a catch 22" Principle. These principles are spiritual in nature and originate at the root of causation. The basis of all tangible actions originate from a non-tangible source called thought. Thought is a form of spiritual energy. Some "things" can only be discerned spiritually. The bible says that "the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." Spiritual principles can operate outside of natural laws. It may appear that all natural laws operate uniformly within the corporeal universe but that is an illusion, they may not necessarily do so. Laws operate and work in layers that can supersede one another. Although all tangible manifestations begin and are birthed from spiritual origins they exist in two different forms. Thought form supplies the energy to produce physical form. We cannot stress this principle enough! This may seem to be redundant, but it is so important to grasp fully. Thoughts become "things." Thoughts first form mentally, then they take on verbal and physical form. It is easier to address errant thought at the imaginative or verbally expressive stage of development rather than have to deal with its manifestations at the physical stage. Standards can be applied to everything from thinking to doing. Even thoughts and imaginations must be kept in subjection to mind. Failure to learn how to think and exercise control over thought can result in anarchy. Standards operate mutually in the realm of spirit and mind. This is why mental health issues must be dealt with at both the psychological and spiritual levels. This may be why it seems that more and more people are continuing to lose their minds. Is it simply because they don't know how to keep them? Whenever we focus on a particular issue intensely, initially it may "feel" as if things get worse. Although it may "seem" that way, generally it's not true. Focusing itself has a way of magnifying things in a way that represents them differently from the way we first viewed them. After focusing on something we may see it differently, but that difference may only be the details. Likewise, when dealing with a problem at first glance we may not see the severity of it. But after close examination we come to the realization that the problem was greater than originally thought. These discoveries should give us some joy in the consolation that the focusing part of the process has begun to work. We can only deal with what we are aware of. As "focusing" closely exposes things, we must learn to respond to its revelations as feeling informed rather than overwhelmed. No one has a monopoly on principles, neither have we discovered them all. The proof is in the practice. True love permits us to accept each other as we are but allows us to hold one another to higher standards. As we continue to discover and practice different principles we will present them for consideration in this forum.

STANDARDS ARE NOT STATIC THEIR DYNAMIC PROPERTIES EVOLVE PERPETUALLY

Picture
There are certain "why's" in life that cannot be defined, explained prematurely or may not be able to be understood at all. Sometimes beliefs must be embraced without evidence and intellectual or intuitive proof. The "standard" of human experience is composed of both a natural and spiritual journey. We can connect to and with the spiritual aspect of our being through our minds while we connect with the natural aspect of our existence through both our minds and bodies. Yes, even experiences can be categorized as expected, normal or what we might call standard. We must be taught and learn standards. There are standards for everything! S.O.P, also known as standard operating procedures, are used by a wide range of industries beyond healthcare including aviation, finance, and construction. There is a "way" and "why" to how "things" are and should be done. There is a rational behind any functioning aspect or action in life. This means it has an intentional, organized and predesignated design within its nature. We can pervert it or build upon that nature. Building upon what we know to be already true provides consistency and promotes further discovery. Left to our own imagination and vices can give rise to perverting basic, sacred or solemn acts and practices. We cannot expect a child to intuitively know how to or practice eating a balanced diet. Dietary standards are established then handed down, we teach them. Even after being taught to do what's best, most children and many adults default to what tastes good to them over what's actually best for them. Our ​minds can override the intellect of the brain, defy common sense and resist rational behavior. This is why we must be taught to continually discipline and train our minds. This is what is characterized as "Critical Thinking! Yes, even our minds can have a mind of their own. ​

THE PROBLEM WITH CHILDREN MAKING ADULT DECISIONS

​NO WONDER SO MANY PEOPLE ARE SEEMINGLY CONFUSED AND LOST TODAY! THE PRACTICE OF ASKING CHILDREN TO MAKE ADULT DECISIONS IS WRONG! THERE IS A NATURAL PROCESS THAT ALL OF LIFE GROWS THROUGH CALLED MATURITY! THE TIME REQUIRED FOR MATURING DIFFERS ACROSS VARIOUS SPECIES. HUMANS LIVE LONGER BUT MATURE SLOWER THAN MOST OF NATURE. WE GRADUALLY LEARN AND MAKE DISCOVERIES OVER YEARS! IT''S HARD FOR US AS YOUTHS TO KNOW WHAT TO DO WITHOUT HAVING TEACHING OR EXPERIENCES THAT ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES AND CHANGES THAT MUCH OF LIFE BRINGS TO US. THERE ARE SOME "THINGS" THAT CANNOT BE PROCESSED PREMATURELY. IT ALWAYS TAKES US TIME TO PROCESS AND TO BOTH ACTUALLY AND FULLY UNDERSTAND THE MEANINGS OF OUR CHOICES ALONG WITH THE RAMIFICATIONS BEHIND THEM. BOTH GROWTH AND MATURITY ARE A STEP-BY-STEP GRADUAL PROCESS. ASKING A YOUNG INEXPERIENCED NAIVE CHILD HOW THEY IDENTIFY GENDER WISE, BEFORE THEY EVEN REACH PUBERTY IS RIDICULOUS! HOW CAN AN IMMATURE INDIVIDUAL MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO PROCESS INFORMATION THAT REQUIRES ADVANCED AGE AND UNDERSTANDING? ISN'T THIS WHY WE HAVE ESTABLISHED AGES OF CONSENT FOR ANY AND ALL SEXUAL ACTIVITY OR INTERCOURSE WITH A MINOR? ISN'T THIS WHY THERE IS A MINIMUM AGE TO BUY CIGARETTES AND ALCOHOL? ISN'T THIS IS WHY THERE'S A MINIMUM AGE FOR DRIVING, VOTING AND PARTICIPATING IN MOST "ADULT LEVEL" ACTIVITIES? IT'S OBVIOUS THAT "FREE MORAL AGENCY" WORKS HAND IN HAND WITH THE CONCEPT AND PRACTICE OF "INFORMED CONSENT?"

"INFORMED CONSENT" IS A PROCESS THAT ALLOWS A PERSON TO MAKE VOLUNTARY DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR OWN PERSONAL SITUATION AFTER BEING EDUCATED BY AN AUTHORIZED PERSON OR PROVIDER REGARDING THE RISKS, BENEFITS AND ALTERNATIVES OF A CHOICE, INTERVENTION OR PROCEEDURE. IT IS A FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE AND STANDARD IN MEDICAL ETHICS AND LAW. IT IS THE BASIS OF ANY CONTRACT, GUARANTEE OR WARRANTEE. YES, "INFORMED CONSENT" IS CONSIDERED A CENTRAL REQUIRED COMPONENT TO MOST EVERY CLIENT, CUSTOMER, END-USER, AND/OR PATIENT, TO "PROFESSIONL" TRUST. "INFORMED CONSENT" RESPECTS INDIVIDUAL AUTONOMY, CHOICE AND FREE WILL. ​

SPIRITUAL STANDARDS MUST BE CONSIDERED AS STRONGLY AS NATURAL ONES!

There are no positions to maintain or sides to take in these matters. Whether we look at this from an ethical, legal, moral, religious or scientific standpoint, the conclusions should be the same. Some issues do not require compromise only correction. Let's look beyond our own views regardless of what they are and exercise common sense and logic. This is an appeal to common decency as well as to compassionate humanity. Spirit has no known boundaries. Most everyone acknowledges spirits existence in one form or another. We can come together in the "spirit of unity" to codify and keep certain standards regardless of our individual beliefs. Please consider the principles presented in this post with the positions we take in every aspect of life! ​

CORRUPTION THE CURSE AND COST OF COEXISTING WITH IT

​​CLICK THE ARROW TO THE RIGHT FOR AN AUDIO  SUMMARY OF THIS POST >>>>

WITHOUT BELIEVING THAT WE ARE A PART OF AND COEXIST WITHIN BOTH A NATURAL AND SPIRITUAL REALM IT IS FUTILE to BELIeve IN BLESSINGS, CURSES OR LUCK. BLESSINGS AND CURSES ARE USUALLY ASSOCIATED with OR CORRESPOND TO THE OPPOSITE OR POLAR SIDES OF LUCK, WHICH CAN BE GOOD OR BAD. but thE TRUTH IS THAT NONE OF THEM ARE INDEPENDENT ACTIONS OR STATES. LUCK ALSO KNOWN AS BLESSINGS AND CURSES ARE NOT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS TO US, IT IS SOMETHING WE CREATE OURSELVES. LUCK OPERATES AT AN INVISIBLE INTANGIBLE LEVEL of EFFORT AND ENERGY. THE FACT IS THAT WE MAKE OUR OWN LUCK! most humans are naturally superstitious. we hope, we pray, we wish and we believe BY USING THOUGHT ENERGY. ALL ENERGY HAS SPIRITUAL PROPERTIES THAT OPERATE without ANY NATURAL evidence or proof. in religious institutions, this is often called faith. in other circles, it is considered to be supernatural! at its core neither of these explanations fully addresses the heart of the matter. ENERGY IS A SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATION WHETHER WE USE THOUGHT OR MANIPULATE MATTER. THE GIFT OF ENERGY CAN BE USED OR ABUSED AND IT RESULTS IN CONSTRUCTION OR CORRUPTION. IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW THAT ENERGY IS INDIVIDUALLY EXPRESSED ACCORDING TO OR THROUGH OUR believed, EXPERIENCED, learned, and embraced INTERPRETATIONS OF LIFE. THESE INTERPRETATIONS FORM THE NARRATIVES WE EACH OPERATE IN INDIVIDUALLY AND PERCEIVE AS REALITY. WHAT WE CALL REALITY IS TAINTED BY OUR POINT OF VIEW. it's hard to believe in perfection if we have never seen it. however, it is easy to believe in corruption because it's ALL-AROUND us. the premise of corrupting something implies THAT IT HAD original purity. what is now corrupt initially was not! WHAT IS NOW CURSED, PREVIOUSLY WAS BLESSED. what is now guIlty at some point had to be inNocent! what is now imperfect and perverted, in the beginning must have been perfect AND WHOLE! A PERFECT GOD CAN ONLY CREATE A PERFECT WORLD WITH A PERFECT ENVIRONMENT! CORRUPTION ALMOST RUINED IT ALL. NEVERTHELESS, GOD HAS BESTOWED TWO PERFECT GIFTS UPON US DESPITE ALL ATTEMPTS TO CORRUPT THEM. WE CAN "BLESS" GOD THROUGH PRAISE THAT GIVES GOD THE CREDIT, WHICH GLORIFYS GOD AND SHOWS A SMALL TOKEN OF OUR APPRECIATION. FIRST FOR THE GIFT OF LIFE AND SECOND FOR THE GIFT OF REDEMPTION.

THE GREATEST ENEMY OF CORRUPTION IS INTEGRITY

IDENTIFYING THE CAUSE AND CITING THE SOURCE OF CORRUPTION

There are and always have been things that mankind cannot understand. Although we have made leaps and bounds through research and science, we are still just scratching the surface. The overwhelming reality is that the advances and discoveries we now know, ultimately reveals how much more we don't know. The vast majority of the universe is beyond our comprehension and reach, that's why we describe it as a "BLACK HOLE." Although it is not a hole, neither is it black, in our ignorance we define it as if it is! Science is not "fact" it is a study of them. Science by design is intended to be a self-correcting process. When we allow science to be corrupted, we no longer seek truth. Humans by nature are naive and easy to deceive. We have a tendency to substitute convenient lies in exchange for inconvenient truths. Some of the theories we derive can seem so convincing that we automatically embrace them as fact. If they can just straddle the fine line between belief and reality, we'll accept them. The idea that it "Sounds good" works as an age-old expression and English idiom but it is not good enough. Corruption operates like yeast and rust, a little goes a long way and eventually affects everything it comes in contact with. We make corruption acceptable when we lower our standards. This is why we should never give anything credibility without subjecting it first to true scientific scrutiny! Even "scientific suppositions," can be logical and make sense, but that does not make them true. Almost "everything" we believe to be true tends to enable our propensity to think that it is. In science "beliefs" themselves cannot be called and/or characterized as "PROOF." That is not science, it is only a thesis! Most people accept and acknowledge the fact that "warm air rises and cold air sinks." Hot air ballons are a classic example of this. However, without understanding the other related scientific principles of density, gravity, pressure and volume that "rule of thumb" will fall short in certain situations. If that rule always holds true, then why are the tops of mountains so cold? Incomplete understanding can cause us to stubbornly apply and embrace traditionally accepted beliefs and practices even after discovering other conflicting or supplemental data that disproves them. Speaking against the engrained beliefs and popular accepted practices of the others can place us in a fiery furnace or a lion's den! In the Bible, the second chapter of the book of Daniel dealt explicitly with political corruption! Most of the king's advisers were full of deceit, and the king knew it. The king had previously chosen to bring certain captives of the children of Israel to be educated and elevated as a part of his inner chamber of counselors. They had to have been groomed and trained in all knowledge and science. They were added to the "CONGRESS" of wise men that the king would consult with. These individuals gave advise for the economy, judicial process, law, legislation, sentences for crimes, war and multiple areas of governance. The four captives of the children of Israel, who held steadfast to their religious traditions, proved to be ten times better than all of the previous political appointees that preceded them.  The Bible advises us that in the multitude of counselors there is safety. However, if that counsel is corrupt safety becomes a liability. Read the first three chapters of the book of Daniel and compare it to the governance we have today! If we choose to condemn or speak evil about things we don't understand, we are simply corrupting ourselves. Consider and imagine how that in the past, for centuries and decades mankind embraced false beliefs. We should be thankful to GOD that scientific or technological advancements and discoveries eventually proved that many false beliefs based on idolatry were not true! Unfortunately, today there is a replication and retraction crisis in the fields of medicine, politics, religion and science. Why is it so difficult for us to confess that we were wrong in the past or admit that we made some mistakes. Whether we are dealing with the findings that mRna vaccines have a negative effect upon T-cells suppressor genes of cancer in people or the "so called" unprovoked wars of aggression both Russia and the United States are waging, the verdict is the same. The Bible says that "He that covereth his sins shall not prosper!" The very idea of "that's my story and I'm sticking to it," is the foundation of corruption and lies. We must learn to exercise greater scrutiny towards those who are leading us. To err is human! To blindly embrace and follow people based on charisma, party, patriotism or personality is idolatry! Imagine that most men once believed in the idea that there were various "gods" of the air, earth, fertility, fire, harvest, water, weather and other phenomena. This may seem to be a contemptible level of corruption to us today, but it should serve as a warning of how deceitful corruption is. Science cannot save us from corruption when science gets corrupted too!

IDOLIZE - TO admire, revere, love greatly or excessively.
"THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GOD'S BEFORE ME."
 

Picture
American Idol is an unfortunate name for a talent search show. Even by title it teaches us to idolize people based on a talent or talents that may be highly regarded and drastically overrated. "An idol is a physical image or object worshipped as a deity, or a person heavily admired and respected, such as a celebrity or entertainer." When our values become corrupted, we tend to place more emphasis on what's depicted than on what's really happening. The value of a song is more in its message than in its sound. The value in dancing is in the purpose of the celebration, not in the glorification of the flesh. The value of food is more in its nutritional content than its smell and taste! Almost anyone and anything can be corrupted when their original (D.I.P) is used to destroy established order. There is nothing wrong with discovering additional uses for things, but when a design is intentionally repurposed in a destructive way it must be classified as corrupt! Deception, by design is attractive. People don't get hooked on things that never appealed to them. On the contrary, we are drawn towards alluring, appealing, appetizing and sensual things that grab our attention. Intent plays a strong role in how we decide what we will use anything or anyone for and purpose usually precedes design. All of creation has had limits placed on it. Do we as one of the highest orders of species have no boundaries or limits? Is this the reason why we have always been commanded not to violate established standards? Can the power and spirit of corruption be corrosive to our very existence? We should all recognize that the first and the second commandments given to Moses focused on idols and images. This tells us that the very first two of the original ten commandments, specifically addressed what we prioritize, give attention too, bestow honor on, crown as a hero, esteem highly and praise or worship. We must take heed to these two commandments lest we corrupt ourselves! Although we do not bow down or erect monuments to most of our celebrities, the title itself indicates how we feel about them. "A celebrity is a widely recognized individual like an actor, musician, or athlete whose fame is sustained by mass media attention and public interest." IDOLIZING people and their likenesses or images are nothing new to us. Coins, keep-sakes, pictures and statues have traditionally become collectibles for those of us who see value in symbols. We are gradually and progressively corrupting ourselves. Technology is simply one of the latest vehicles we are using to do so. The sad fact of the matter is that new inventions and charismatic people have become more popular than GOD to many of us. Yes, anyone or anything esteemed more important than GOD essentially becomes an idol. Looking for GOD in the news? We rarely find reference to GOD's existence or presence! As ambassadors for Christ, we have a lot of work to do. Corruption isn't always obvious; compromise generally precedes it. When our thinking and behaviors become tainted or tarnished, we prioritize our will over GOD's way. Corruption begins taking place in our minds before it manifests in our actions. Corrupting man's regard for GOD'S commandments and GOD'S word is part of the original playbook. If we had just believed and practiced what was best for us, life would be completely different today. Unfortunately, man has been corrupted in every way from his conscience to his conduct. Disregarding GOD opens the trap door; disobeying GOD puts us in the trap and disrespecting GOD closes the trap door shut.

 FAITHFUL AS ANYthing, QUESTIONING EVERYTHING, 
  STOPPING AT NOTHING & provING all things.

​We have been instructed not to believe every spirit, to prove all things and hold on to the good, to know that GOD is faithful and to be sober and vigilant. This applies to how we walk, what we do, who we do it with and what and who we believe in. We can believe in whatever we want to but that does not make it true. Take a look at the following "scientific suppositions" that were once thought to be true. They have been corrected over time but still are considered credible in some circles. This is a type of corruption that continues affecting us to this day! A popular belief embraced by a majority of people creates "psychic conditioning." Going against the crowd or against the grain is an unpopular practice that most people will not do. It's far easier to swallow the bait, hook, line and sinker. No one likes to discover that they've been the victim of brainwashing, gaslighting, grooming and corruption. Most of us could know and should know but don't know because it feels better not to know! The unfortunate and suppressed truth is that we all are living examples of a systemic conspiracy Hell-bent on corrupting an entire species. We are simply the recipients of spiritual corruption being manifested in the natural and physical realm we operate in. We were not designed to DIE; corruption is what ushered death into our existence! Think about the short list of beliefs we've just provided. Many of our previous posts deal with how deception works. Anyone and everyone are subject to succumb to corruption. It is more than an act it is a spirit! We cannot measure spirit in terms of a little or a lot. There are no degrees or fractions that apply to it. Any small amount of corruption affects everything! "A little bit of leaven leaveneth the whole lump." Using terminology that obscures this truth, such as saying this spirit may only have mild effects, is like a mild parachute failure or being mildly pregnant! However, denying a myth (lie) previously embraced as a belief or fact is one of the most difficult admissions men will ever have to make. Sometimes it hard to recognize the fact that we are on a collision course that will sink us. The story of a Navy captain of a mighty battleship speaks to the arrogance of supposed superior strength. Here is that account.

A battle ship was on exercise at sea in bad weather. The captain was on the bridge. It was foggy. Just after dark the look out spotted a light on the starboard side. The captain asked if it was steady or moving. The look out replied the light was steady meaning they were on direct collision course with that ship! The captain ordered the lookout signal to the other ship:

“Change course 20 degrees. We are on collision course.”

The signal came back ‘”Advisable for you to change course.”

The captain signalled ‘”I am a captain. Change course 20 degrees.”

“I am a seaman second class. You had better change course 20 degrees” came the reply.

The captain was furious. He sent back ‘”I am a battleship. Change course!”

Back came the signal, “I am a lighthouse. Your call.”

​PLEASE PERSONALLY RESEARCH THESE THINGS. DO NOT TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT!

1.
Gravity does not cause heavier objects to fall faster.
2. Going outside into cold does not cause us to "catch a cold." 
3. Reading in dim light does not damage the eyes but it can strain them.
4. Men and women have the same number of ribs.

IN RECENT YEARS, THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY HAS BEEN DEALING WITH A SPIKE OF OVER 10,000 PAPERS RETRACTED GLOBALLY. THINGS ONCE BELIEVED TO BE TRUE WERE FALSE. MEDICAL MISCHARACTERIZATIONS AND MISCONCEPTIONS NEED UPDATES TOO! THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A "NEED" TO SIMPLY ACKNOWLEDGE HAVING BEEN WRONG WHEN WE DISCOVER WE'VE MADE MISTAKES. HOWEVER, THE WORSE MISTAKES ARE THE ONES WE FAIL TO CORRECT. THATS HOW CORRUPTION WORKS!

5. High fiber, nuts and seeds do not cause diverticulitis. They can be part of a careful diet. 
​6. Eggs and other high cholesterol foods do not "directly cause heart disease.
7. Cancer is not a death sentence or a single disease. There are over 100 types and treatments.

THE FALLACY OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

True Intelligence is a spiritual gift from GOD bestowed upon humanity. Yes, animals and plants possess intellect, reasoning and smarts based on instinct and nature, but their level of thinking differs from a human's ability to process information, compile evidence, form theories and change their thoughts based on discovery. Intellect is defined as "the power of knowing as distinguished from the power to feel and to will." The capacity to continue developing higher and higher intelligently rational thought is exclusive to humans. We possess the faculty to objectively evaluate data and facts, especially with regard to abstract matters. In the past it may have been thought that man's intellect and intelligence based on SCIENCE could not be corrupted. After all SCIENCE is a self-correcting application that by design re-evaluates its own former conclusions and findings and by process refines them. How then is it possible for a truly intelligent species like man to corrupt his own thinking? Isn't it our ambition and imagination that has gotten us this far? Surely no one in their right minds believes in a "Big Bang Theory." No intelligent person would inspect a plane, train or automobile and decide that there was not a creator or inventor behind its existence. Every aspect of man and matter from inanimate objects to rocks and water are marvelous and wondrously made.  Even most of our man-made devices from teapots to traffic lights are amazing in their composition and construction. We give copyrights to authors; we have patents for inventors and grant naming right to explorers for their discoveries. Why do we not give credit to GOD for creation? Isn't that corrupt and unfair? Is it possible to become vain in our scientific quests and imaginations? Have we gotten so smart that even our intelligence has been corrupted by the failure to acknowledge GOD? Are we corrupting the application of SCIENCE so that it turns the truth of GOD into a lie? Intelligence is a GOD given gift to be shared not property to be owned! Where do thoughts come from? For a long time the "west" has cornered the market in semiconductor lithography. This is the process used to miniaturize and transfer complex circuit patterns onto silicon wafers. It is behind the ability to create small but powerful A.I. computer technologies and robotic microchips. Is this why we are in an A.I. race against China and other parts of the world? What happens when they break through erected barriers and clone or copy what we originally first developed, like we fear is occurring with weapons? Is (FMA) "first mover advantage" actually so strategic and critically important? Can we block and prevent second mover improvement and innovation indefinitely? Have we not seen processes like leapfrogging and repurposing work again and again? Can advanced Artificial Intelligence ever be shared? Is this why we choose to destroy peace and jeopardize civility through publicly voicing corrupt communications and dialogues laced with profanity? Is this why the Bible says, "Evil communications corrupt good manners? Where do thoughts come from? Why is there such a surge in what's called "colorful language and egregious speech" like cursing, expletives, obscenity, swearwords and vulgarity? Why is it fashionable to abbreviate them? W.T.H. (what the heck) is going on? Have we no knowledge of the scripture that says to "let no corrupt communication proceed out of our mouths?"  Didn't Jesus warn us that every idle word would be taken into account on the day of judgement? Words are more than speech; they are tools and weapons. Jesus told us that by our words we would be justified and condemned! Where do thoughts come from? Do we originate them or do they just appear out of nowhere like a "Big Bang Theory?" Words are important! When will we learn that words carry and communicate spirit! How do we deal with the dialogue?

DATA, FACTS, NEWS, REPORTS AND REVISIONS

Picture
Misleading data and research often categorized as statistics; called clinical trials, experiments, findings, peer reviews, results, studies, and other sophisticated titles are selling us a "bill of goods." A pill for every ill is not the way health care was originally intended to be. Corrupted health care promotes a chronic, profitable ongoing model for dependency. There is a delicate balance that our bodies, nature, the planet and the universe are designed to maintain on their own. We are not saying that certain additives, practices, programs, supplements, traditions, vitamins and the multitude of products sold today are bad or harmful. What we are promoting is adjusting our perspective about how life's design operates and works. When it comes to our bodies it's important to understand its design includes healing, protecting and regulating all of its resources. The brain is responsible for allocating the resources the body NEEDS correctly. Today, a "chronic" rather than "acute" care model for dieting, maintenance, medicine and nutrition is creeping into the consciousness of society. This means that we are no longer allowing our own built-in systems to synthesize and supply us from the foods we eat. We need to concentrate on the cause of disease more than the symptoms. Signaling our brain with messages that it no longer needs to support us in certain metabolic processes, mental challenges or physical movements corrupts its functioning and endangers our total health. When our doctors prescribe medications, we need to ask them what is their "End Game" and do they have one. The question should be what the plan is to obviate the need for the medications they recommend? Nature also follows a similar course. Natural resources abused and exploited rather than being used and renewed is being revealed symptomatically. The planet we exist on is more than just a rock floating in space. The by-product of its continual misuse is projected and reflected in our climate changes, global warming and weather. Natural disasters are exactly that. When nature hiccups or vomits the belly of the planet knows it. The universe includes every dimension of our existence. There are mental, natural, physical, psychological, sensual and spiritual aspects all interacting in this universe. How we acknowledge it, see it and respect it determines our destiny. There are a multitude of ongoing acts of corruption being committed by us that compound this existential threat. "The Mixed Messages" of the day are the greatest menace we face. What should we believe, who should we believe and how much of it can we believe? CORRUPTION HAS CREPT INTO EVERY ASPECT OF OUR EXISTENCE. WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING THE WAY, IT WORKS WE WILL BE SUBJECT TO ITS EFFECTS IN ALL OF OUR INTERACTIONS.  THIS POST IS MOSTLY ABOUT EXPOSING MANY OF THE SIGNS OF CORRUPTION. HOWEVER, FOR US TO CORRECTLY PERCEIVE AND PROPERLY DIAGNOSE THESE SIGNS, WE MUST FIRST INDIVIDUALLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND ADDRESS THE CORRUPTED PARTS IN OURSELVES. ONLY AFTER REMOVING THE BEAM FROM OUR OWN EYE CAN WE FIRST CLEARLY DISCERN, AND THEN PROPERLY SEE THE "CURSE OF CORRUPTION" AS A WHOLE. Remember, "A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit." IF WE HAVE BEEN CORRUPTED, THEN OUR RESULTS MAY BE CORRUPTED AND SKEWED. The standard we abide by, and use cannot be our own. We must be our own greatest critic in light that we are the easiest one to fool ourselves. THAT IS ONE PART OF THE COST AND CURSE OF COEXISTING WITH CORRUPTION!

  TRUST TRANSCENDS LOGIC AS    FAITH TRANSCENDS PROOF   

Picture
The term "evidence based" describes the core, root, source or foundation of establishing thought and theory, but it does not make it absolutely true. Man is discovering a remedy for everything except death; and he's working on that. Congruent means to agree or be in harmony. A theory is a system of ideas used to explain something. "Not everything that makes sense works, and not everything that works makes sense." Both GOD and the universe are not obligated to make sense to us. We typically use science to make sense of what we cannot understand, and when that fails, we resort to superstition. False ​or hastily defined meanings, incomplete evaluations and incorrectly scrutinized evidence are some of the causes of CORRUPTION. Isn't this what happened in the Garden of Eden? Faith is not "all about" knowing the answer in advance, it is "more about" trusting that a future answer will come. Is not the acronym for F.E.A.R. FALSE EVIDENCE APPEARING REAL? What about the acronym for D.I.E.T.  DID I EAT THAT? We are what we eat, naturally and spiritually. When we eat lies, we digest deceit and become malnourished in spirit. What we're falling for today is being gradually ingrained in us! If we fail to recognize corruption when we come into contact with it or see it, we gradually get corrupted too. Corruption frames facts in ways that support its corrupt scenario. One of the greatest challenges we face today is to not permit our trust in the power of faith to be corrupted. Faith and trust are not abstract expressions or feelings. Although there often is an emotional component involved in their manifestations, it is not a criterion for them to operate. Today there is an innate tendency to trust in technology. Being born into a world of automation we trust traffic lights to regulate intersections and painted lines along with posted signs to divide lanes of travel. These are all good regulatory devices, but should we put our trust in them? We do believe in their purpose, but the order and structure they bring can be violated by one disobedient soul. Do speed limits just slow us down? Are laws just made to be broken? Are the Ten Commandment just restrictions on our freedom? Corruption is more than just disobedience or non-compliance. It has a corrosive and destructive effect on almost everyone and everything it touches. No wonder the same reference is used three times in the bible. “For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” Psalms 16:10, Acts 2:27 and Acts 2:31. The signs of corruption are not hard to spot because the face of corruption is revealed whenever image takes precedence over substance.   

INVISIBLE & VIRTUAL ARE NOT TANGIBLE BUT ARE REAL

SINCE THE DISCOVERY OF ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION THE WORLD HAS NOT BEEN THE SAME. MODERN TECHNOLOGIES HAVE ADVANCED MORE QUICKLY IN THE PAST TWO HUNDRED (200) YEARS THEN THEY HAD IN THE PREVIOUS TWO THOUSAND (2000) YEARS. RADIO FOLLOWED BY TELEVISION AND COMPUTERS HAVE MADE THE VIRTUAL (INVISIBLE) WORLD MORE OF AN APPARENT REALITY THAN EVER BEFORE. ALTHOUGH WE CAN'T SEE IT, WE CAN INTUITIVELY RECOGNIZE THE EXISTENCE OF FORCES THAT INFLUENCE THE WORLD AROUND US.  IT'S NOT DIFFICULT TO BOTH FEEL AND SEE THE "EVIDENCE" OF SOME TYPE OF ENERGY IN OUR PRESENCE. MAYBE THIS IS WHY SO MUCH FOLKLORE, MYTHOLOGY AND SUPERSTITIONS AROUND THE WORLD HAVE COMMON THREADS. WHEN WE CANNOT EXPLAIN SOMETHING, OUR MINDS TEND TO FIND AND FORMULATE EXPLANATIONS AND/OR STORIES THAT COMPENSATE FOR THE THINGS BEYOND OUR UNDERSTANDING. ACCOUNTING FOR THE LIST OF MYTHOLOGIES FROM AROUND THE WORLD IS A STAGGERING FEAT. MANKIND HAS CONSISTENTLY CONCOCTED ALL KINDS OF STORIES IN AN ATTEMPT TO EXPLAIN THE INVISIBLE FORCES OF ENERGY BEHIND OBSERVABLE PHENOMENON. IS IT TOO FAR FETCHED TO ATTRIBUTE BATTLES BETWEEN THE "gods" AND OTHER SPITITUAL ENTITIES WHEN THERE ARE NO OTHER PLAUSIBLE EXPLANATIONS FOR THINGS BEYOND OUR UNDERSTANDING? MANS IMAGINATION IS UNLIMITED AND WITHOUT DISCIPLING IT, THE EXISTENCE OF GOD, AND THE WHOLE IDEA OF A CREATOR CAN BE CORRUPTED OR COMPLETELY RATIONALIZED AWAY. THERE IS A NEW LEVEL OF CORRUPTION THAT IS BEING FALSELY BASED ON SCIENCE AND IS BEING PERPETUATED TODAY. THE SUBTLE DIFFERENCE AND TRANSITION IS THAT SCIENCE IS BEING TASKED WITH EXPLAINING WHATEVER WE DO NOT LOGICALLY UNDERSTAND. HOWEVER, IN SOME PLACES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD EVEN DOCTORS AND SCIENTIST ARE BEING REJECTED IN LIEU OF OLDER SUPERSTITIOUS AND TRADITIONAL BELIEFS. WHEN A PERSON'S MIND AND THINKING IS CORRUPTED EVEN COMMON-SENSE REASONING CAN BECOME INFECTED. ISN'T IT FUNNY THAT WE CAN ACKNOWLEDGE THE EXISTENCE, FORM AND MANIFESTATION OF MULTIPLE TYPES OF INVISIBLE ENERGY MADE BY GOD, BUT NOT THE SOURCE BEHIND THAT ENERGY CALLED GOD.

A COMPROMISE CAN DISGUISE CORRUPTION

Picture
Before science reigned superstitions ruled. History is filled with examples of us being clever and manipulative. Corruption will take advantage of our beliefs, ignorance and weaknesses at the drop of a dime. We tend to make up things to explain what we don't know. We suppose and theorize in every aspect of life. We cannot see air or the wind, but we can feel it. Many gases cannot be seen, but we can smell them. Other natural gases have no odor at all, and we add a smell to them for safety as a canary in a coal mine. The invisible and virtual world has always been a part of our everyday existence. Why do people keep rabbits' feet that certainly were not lucky for the rabbit? Common superstitions today still include black cats, breaking mirrors, knocking on wood, opening umbrellas indoors, splitting poles, the number thirteen, throwing salt over our shoulders, walking under ladders and others. Although many of these beliefs appear to be harmless, they breed corruptible reasoning and thinking. A new combination of religious beliefs, science and superstitions are being promoted today. No one is exempt from being corrupted or being affected by it. There is no business, class of people, government or organization that cannot be touched. Some aspect of corruption can reach anyone. Sometimes even the best of us fall victim to reasoning and thoughts, that although well intended, turn out to have corruptible results. Abraham, called the father of faith, was as human as any other man. Although Abraham believed GOD so much so that it was counted unto him for righteous, he acted in questionable ways on several occasions. Most people are not aware that he actually compromised the sanctity of his own marriage twice. Playing the role of a pimp with his wife to preserve his life became a strategy for his survival. Without GOD's intervention Sarah could have become a royal concubine. It's not uncommon for us to try and "self-help" even though we believe and trust in GOD to help us. Knowing history and how things worked during different periods of time can help us to understand why. The real dilemma we face today is in reflection. Just by engaging in reflection, it opens the door to being or having been wrong. Everyone has a "right" to be wrong! This is what reflection is all about. However, reflection without pondering change or correction is simply arrogance, blindness and/or stubbornness. Making a choice between two or more alternatives is difficult but not impossible. Guns don't kill people. People kill people! Consciousness creates moral authority that "trumps" any policy. 

IS IT REAL OR IS IT MEMOREX?

ENERGY OPERATES WITHOUT INTENTION
ALL OF MATTER HAS ENERGY

Energy is not good or evil; it is simply energy. "Fire" which is not classified as matter and often referred to in folklore as a gift from the gods, is a rapid chemical reaction we call combustion. The Bible tells us that GOD is spirit as well as that our GOD is a consuming "Fire." Scientist have concluded that "Fire" as we know it, is the process of a fuel oxidizing and releasing energy in the form of heat and light. All of matter has, needs, produces and/or uses energy and this should be regarded as "creative process." And GOD said, let there be light energy as well as let there be a source of heat energy. This mysteriously inexplicable relationship between energy, heat and light which are not considered to be matter is not a black hole, it is a brilliant creation. Both "Fire" and "water" are wondrous substances. "Water" on the other hand is matter and can be used to extinguish "Fire." While "Fire," the process, is not matter, the glowing flames we see are made up of matter. Flames primarily consist of highly heated luminous gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor. However, in the hotter "Fires" those partially ionized gases change in their properties and are called plasma which is considered matter. Plasma generally refers to one of two distinct states. Plasma can be called the fourth state of matter in physics and/or the liquid component of blood in biology. This all gets kind of complicated for a "Big Bang Theory." Because "Fire" is fleeting and constantly consumes fuel to exist, physicists have classified it as an "energetic event" or process instead of a distinct physical object or state of matter. This is why "Fire" has its own "trinity." "Fires" existence cannot be easily defined! Therefore, science has categorized it separately. "Fire" appears to have a spiritual component to it. Among other names it's called the combustion "theory." Yes, there is a lot more than meets the eye behind the energy of physics and the chemistry of combustion. PLEASE REMEMBER, ​ENERGY USED TO EXECUTE EVIL INTENTIONS OPERATES THE SAME WAY AS ENERGY PURPOSED TO DO GOOD. MOST ENERGY EXISTS IN A REALM OF INVISIBILITY BUT CAN MANIFEST IN TANGIBLE, VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE WAYS!

A.I. WILL BEAT THE BIG BANG 

 CORRUPT INGENUITY has no TRANSPARENCY

Once again man will outsmart himself by biting off more than he can chew. The same reasoning is being used. "For GOD doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods." We choose to believe in the Bible and the words of Jesus rather than the predictions of billionaires. Jesus stated that we were destined to have poor people among us. The corruption is found in many of today's profound contradictions. A.I. is being promoted as the new savior of the world! A perfect utopian world of "abundance for all," is the Elon Musk vision. This strikingly familiar line is being believed and embraced by people who think technology can save us. Corruption at its core is never transparent. It tends to inhibit those corrupted by it to make changes or compromises. Corruption would rather stay the course than to admit to error or fault. Retreat or surrender only comes by force. In order to maintain itself, corruptions' design is to never make mistakes or be vulnerable. Deflection and pointing the finger is nothing new. Corruption in its conniving and cunning ways uses this and other tactics to get us to look the other way. Pointing the finger is one way to expose the atrocities that are being committed by others without highlighting similar deeds being done by the accuser. Seemingly lesser infractions tend to be more easily overlooked when greater more egregious ones are brought into the spotlight. Whether we commit them ourselves or it's done by those we oppose, makes no difference. Corruption also works by glossing over one wrong in favor of another. (THIS IS THE "BUT WHAT ABOUT THEM" DEFENSE.)  The greatest threat to corruption is exposing it. However, doing so usually comes at a great cost to anyone or any institution bold enough to attempt to do so. Know that Evil will protect itself through the implementation of more and sometimes greater evil if necessary. Taking a stand against corruption is never easy. Its privacy and secrecy are being comingled in ways that continually strengthen it. The term "conflict of interest" is simply a sophisticated name for corruption. A.I. is not the answer, Jesus is. Anyone who continues to think that A.I. is the solution and "end all" to humanities problems is being deceived. “A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.” This being true means that for A.I. to be incorruptible its authors, creators or inventors must be that way too. If GOD created humanity perfectly and man still corrupted himself, what makes us think that mankind, in an already corrupted state, can fabricate an incorruptible or perfect technology?

DISTRACTION TACTICS: EXPOSING CORRUPTION TO HIDE CORRUPTION 

Corruption to be corruption must run its corrupting course regardless of circumstances or conditions. Corruption sanctions what it does and how it does it based on aims, deterrents, goals or objective deemed critical to accomplish. Whatever corruption desires to do must be founded upon some level of logic that makes sense to the corrupted mind. Corruption works hand in hand with "deceit" and deceit is usually undetected by those who are being deceived. The Bible plainly begs us to renounce any previous behaviors which have been corrupted by deceitful desires and lusts. So how do we know if we are being deceived? To be deceived by other we first must deceive ourselves. This tactic is how people called clairvoyants, magicians, mentalists, mind readers, psychics and telepaths operate. Once another person understands the way we reason and think we are subject to being manipulated by them. Anyone who knows what our fears are can exploit them. Using bluster to cover corruption is nothing new. "Bluster" is a way of acting talking or posturing in an aggressive, boastful or loud way. It usually has an air of arrogance that is filled with half empty threats lacking substance. Blustering conceals corruption beneath the amount of noise and commotion it creates without producing any meaningful results. Diversionary tactics usually are found within the course of corruption. Information overload can easily signal our reticular activating system to shut down news we no longer want to hear. Every hero needs a villain. Any captain, commander or comic book character without a nemesis will eventually fall victim to the ordinary. It is the "extraordinary" things in life that we pay closest attention to. Corruption avoids and/or dodges responsibility as it shifts our focus to look at and then see its perspective regarding things it can blame for whatever goes amiss or awry. Corruption operates chiefly through interpreting how things appear rather than by how they can be! Jesus once said to a nobleman that except for seeing signs and wonders people would not believe. This is how sight works against faith! We walk by faith not by sight! Read the rest of the story. The nobleman took Jesus at his word and went his way without the "evidence" of the healing miracle he sought. We should never allow our feelings to corrupt our faith! Much of the magic we see on shows work by sleight of hand and distractions. Most corruption carries this signature. Even the NASDAQ 100 seems to have been corrupted by a sudden rule change designed specifically to accommodate SPACE-X. Once corruption affects one thing it will infect everything else it touches. there is no country, government, institution, organization or religion that is exempt. Most of the New Testament addresses how to deal with corruption in the church, in life, in religion and in society. Corruption is creeping into almost everything. Be not deceived. As we've stated before we state again. Nothing written here is in stone, it is all in chalk to be amended, corrected and reproved. We say this in our awareness that we are subject to corruption too. We ask our followers and patrons to search things out for themselves, question everything and leave any comments as led of God, lest we have run or are running in vain. Corruption today is an insidious cancer permeating society and whether we acknowledge it or not, it is only getting worse! “For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of GOD: but as of sincerity, but as of GOD, in the sight of GOD speak we in Christ.”

THE HUMAN DILEMMA - SPIRIT, SOUL & FLESH

"HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM." THAT PHRASE HAS BEEN MISQUOTED AS THE FAMOUS WORDS UTTERED BY astronaut Jim Lovell during NASA's Apollo 13 mission to the moon. BUT WELL BEFORE HE SPOKE THOSE WORDS, AN "AGE OLD" PROBLEM OF "BEING" HAS PLAGUED US! THE ACTUAL WORDS WERE "WE'VE HAD A PROBLEM HERE." AND THAT PHRASE IS IN LINE WITH THIS POST. WE BATTLE A DILEMMA AND THE PROBLEM WE'VE ALWAYS HAD IS IN COMPROMISE. WE CANNOT SELL ANY ASPECT OF OUR "BEING" WITHOUT MAKING A CONCESSION IN ANOTHER FACET OF OUR EXISTENCE. OUR "BEING" IS COMPOSED OF pHYSICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND SPIRITUAL ELEMENTS. OUR "BEING" IS INTEGRATED WITHIN A DELICATE BALANCE BETWEEN MANKIND AND ALL OF CREATION. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE WAR WE FIGHT PRIMARILY CONSISTS OF NOT FORFEITING OUR QUALITY-OF-LIFE IN EXCHANGE FOR THE QUANTITY OF LIFE'S ATTRACTIONS!

 A GAMBLING SOUL HEEDING A SPIRIT OF COMPROMISE EVENTUALLY PAYS WITH ITS BODY

Picture
Most of us do not lose our freedom in one fatal swoop or suddenly by a single act, it's generally a slow process that progresses for a lifetime. Clipping our own wings is easy. We sell and trade our freedom for pleasure, power and prestige. Many of the quiet and secret thoughts we have are not necessarily our own. Our soul contains and decides how to apply the values we embrace, just as it was educated to do. Our spirit is sensitive to all kinds of attractive energy and objects that appeals to "the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life." Our flesh connects us to the tangible and visible world we interact with and has its own unique appetites and needs. Thoughts are where desires live and actions are how thoughts express themselves. Thinking must be trained too! Thinking works in patterns. Patterns create pathways. The soul is our thought police. We direct what we think on not just what we think about! The world is full of distractions tempting us to think about multiple things, but we are in control. The dilemma we face is navigating the forces pulling and pushing against each component of our "BEING." We are free moral agents. That means we can do whatever we want and however we want to; but there are consequences. Health, so often narrowly defined, in actuality characterizes the wellbeing of our entire existence. The Bible defines the entirety of our human existence in the book of first Thessalonians chapter five and verse twenty-three. “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” True Health is a multidimensional state! All of creation connects into it. Wholistic Health contains emotional, environmental, mental, physical and spiritual aspects of well-being. Health is not defined by the absence of difficulties, dilemmas, disease, hardship, issues and trials but rather by the ability to face and weather them. Health is measured by our connection to the shared energy of our environment. Health is composed of emotional (felt), living (animate), non-volitional (inanimate), invisible (non-tactile), spiritual (sensed), visible (observed) and universal connectivity. Health is governed by lifestyle choices as well as systemic factors. Healthy environments demand balance and our attention to keep them that way. Health is a shared phenomenon distributed among all of existence but presided over by the highest ranks of any species.

THE APPLICATIONS - WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?

Once again, our endeavor is to apply practical applications to spiritual principles. The slow pace of the gradual compromises we make in life have a tendency to deceive us. This will be expressed without clarifications, deep analysis and lengthy explanations. This post will be shorter and get straight to the point. The training of our "BEING" begins once we become self-aware. As we grow, abstractions enter into the process. Our physical, biological, psychological and spiritual profile is practiced over a lifetime. We adjust, hone, refine and perfect them but we cannot be perfect. Many of us do as best we know how and as best we can. As a result, thankfully, GOD has allowed us to "adapt to" a corrupted diseased environment through the process of healing. One of the greatest paradoxes we face is that many of our practices do not fit the prescriptions for healing. We have been traditionally taught about a "fight or flight" mechanism that occurs when we are under stress. However, it is important to include the "freeze" mechanism that we naturally used as a child whenever we were feeling threatened. Young children don't normally run away or ball up their fists when they are under duress, they get scared and ball up their bodies into a fetal position. They cry, shake and tremble. We forget that freezing up or shock can be reaction too. "The Polyvagal Theory" deals with this concept in depth and particularly focuses on the vagus nerve to explain how it shapes our emotional, social, and behavioral responses. Sometimes freezing like a deer in headlights, going limp like a mouse caught in the mouth of a cat or playing dead like an opossum is the only option left. A car that swerves around the deer, a cat that relaxes its grip for a critical second as the mouse escapes and the predator that loses interest in eating something already dead, allowing the opossum to survive, have the same result. Consider the command Moses gave to the Israelites trapped between Pharoah's chariots and the Red Sea to do nothing. Freezing and taking no action was enough! Sometimes, GOD's way is to freeze, stand still and see the salvation he has for us.

​Our "BEING," which include all features of a combined and synchronized universal existence seeks a balance with all of nature that has been subordinated by the disobedience of sin. The body is designed to HEAL itself. However, chronic (persistent) behaviors inherently and over decades can degrade and destroy this ability. Healing mechanisms are a part of our anatomy. The body is also designed to PROTECT itself. Both our innate and adaptive immune systems respond to pathogens that attack us. There are relationships between muscles like the psoas, the vagus nerve and our spirit that most people including doctors are unaware of. Without clicking these links our ignorance will continue as well. The mind must also be protected at its three levels of conscious, subconscious and unconscious thought. Care must be taken at every level of our existence. Acute care is the goal; however chronic care has become the standard and is much more profitable. "Heavenly Assurance" always beats "earthly insurance." Too many people fail to take GOD at his word. "Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's." GOD gives us the benefit of blessed assurance paid with the blood of Jesus. Man made systems can offer us health care insurance we pay for out of our own pockets. However, caring for our own health is and should be our personal responsibility. Relief from symptoms is not a real fix. Eliminating the root cause is key to addressing health issues. One of the greatest paradoxes we face is that many of our practices do not fit the prescriptions for healing that address the issues. The world is interconnected. Our D.I.P. (design, intent & purpose) includes more than our own bodies. Healing is all inclusive. The body has autonomous protections and regulatory systems built into it and the mind as well; but the spirit must be consciously managed and regulated by the soul under our daily control! 

BEYOND THE BODY, MORE THAN THE MIND, PAST THE PSYCHE

Many of us will find ourselves chained to things that in reality steal our freedom. In most cases we are not bound by others but have purchased the chains and imprisoned ourselves. ​We have been sold a narrative that frames life falsely and defines happiness as things rather than relationships. We were designed to love people and use things but instead we tend to love things and use people. Buying into the "zeitgeist of the day" is a part of the system that is brainwashing, gaslighting, grooming and indoctrinating us. We are now existing in a world of pain and symptom relief rather than resolution. Many of us feel ok temporarily but underneath it all we are covering an underlying level of misery. When we are continually distracted from the most important things in life and our attention is diverted to selfish fulfillments, our "BEING" has been compromised. Our spirit, the attitude of our behavior and "existence" which our soul directs expression through, enables our flesh to sustain feelings that are validated by emotions. This is why people can say they believe in GOD but act in ways that dishonor his name. "This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me." The perfect example was JESUS; his manner and practices set the standard. It's popular today to get on the "give GOD the glory" bandwagon. More and more actors, athletes, celebrities, entertainers, leaders and politicians now proclaim and profane the name of GOD. This is a prevalent trend today. We see it in competitions, conquests, victories of all sorts and even war. Modern life presents a mixture of things that appear as freedom but come with chains. Liberty without peace is slavery is disguise. Prosperity defined by possessions is spiritual poverty. The dilemma we find ourselves in is of our own making perpetuated by values that lead us astray. Spirits, which we define as attitudes of behavior embodied and expressed in our "BEING," are emboldened within various atmospheres that support the energy they exist and thrive within. This allows them to exhibit their real aims, identity and objectives inside of the platforms that facilitate them. We see this manifested in mob mentalities at rallies, sporting events and other assemblies. When people express graphic unbridled disrespect towards others, in either private or public forums, this is one of the sure signs that "spiritual wickedness" is at work.

THE BATTLES & "BEINGS" OF THE UNIVERSE 

Picture
Well beyond our own realm of awareness and experiences there is a bigger and broader universal body of inhabitants. There are other "BEINGS" and creatures simultaneously sharing existence with us. We are not alone! The universe whether described as observable, open or closed is interrelated. Yes, there is a logbook that records and reflects our relationships with GOD, our neighbors and all nature. Of all the creatures GOD created, humanity is the only one recorded as given a kingdom of his own. Imagine how the other creatures of the universe must have felt when GOD created man. What is man that thou art mindful of him? One Angel has more abilities, majesty and power than scores of puny humans. So why does GOD regard humans so highly? Is this what provoked Lucifer into rebellion? Envy and jealousy are powerful feelings! Is this what caused the sons of God to take to themselves wives of the daughters of men? Is this a part of the reason why man was tempted in the garden? Is this why the heavenly host are intrigued? The bigger picture suggests a struggle over dominion and a resulting war than most of us are not aware of. The sad fact of the matter is that mankind has been corrupted and continues in and on a corrupted path. We received the genius of GOD gifted creative mental abilities and imagination. The fact that we continually express it in an unbridled and ungodly manner is undermining us all. We have become intelligent enough to search out, duplicate and manipulate many of the ways life itself operates. It seems that we've gotten too smart for our own good. Our theories of what happens and the processes behind life's operations have allowed us to play god in multiple ways. Be not deceived! An overwhelming number of breakthroughs in medicine, psychology and science have come as a result of man digging into, analyzing and deciphering the secrets behind the "way things work." Unless it's corrupted, science is a self correcting path to further discovery. Blood work and Laboratory results may be informative, but they are incomplete. Science is important; and "suckers for science" believe in it whole heartedly. However, this does not include the core knowledge of GOD's Spirit which is the energy and lifeforce behind "how things work." The Tower of Babel clearly demonstrated that! When we, as arrogant mortal men, set our minds to something pride can cause us to easily overstep our bounds. This has been clearly and repeatedly illustrated in many innovations and inventions. From the development of nuclear weapons to "gain of function" biological lab leaks like (Covid-19), man continues playing god. Artificial intelligence, quantum computing and "conquering" space are the newest technologies destined to get away from us! Although we discover, make and develop things it does not mean we can control them! Whether its weapons of mass destruction, biological agents, pharmaceutical drugs, synthetic foods or technological controls, as inventors of evil things we are destined to reap what we sow! As we lose control of these developments man will come to the ultimate conclusion that there is a GOD that directs the energy behind the essence of life itself. ALTHOUGH WE OFTEN DECIPHER HOW THINGS WORKS, WHY HAVE WE YET TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THE ESSENCE BEHIND WHAT'S WORKING IT? 
In many instances man may be able to figure out what's going on when it comes to the processes involved, but "misses the boat" on the enabling spiritual powers behind it!

EXPERIENCES AND MEMORIES ARE GATEWAYS - GUARD THEM!

The body keeps the score. Yes, our "BEING" accumulates and can retain all kinds of energy both beneficial and detrimental to us. "The Body Keeps The Score" is a book written by Bessel van der Kolk. The pdf can be downloaded from this link. Although the majority of our patrons will gloss over this post, not download the pdf and only listen to the audio we are still committed to delivering this type of information and relating it to the spiritual aspect of our existence. We operate in an environment filled with multiple types of forces. This includes the powers of advertising, entertainment, politics, religion, sports and the multiple other topics we have addressed over a decade. We have no medical, scientific or theological credentials. Everything we write is in chalk. We take no credit for the source only the synthesis. Beware, there are powers that our posts expose which seek to prevent us from presenting and receiving this information. Be not deceived this is a spiritual battle! We are determined not be deterred. Although we have no advanced degrees or letters following our name our calling and mission are clear. Many "callings" come without worldly recognition. The Bible is full of menial, barely recognized and unpopular characters that carried critical messages. Memories and the act or idea of remembering is narrowly defined by many people. In reality our "BEING," bodies brains, emotions, eyes, feelings, flesh, mind, muscles and nerves all have their own banks of stored experiences. Many memories are NOT simply stored in the brain. Actions, events and all types of experiences can trigger memories located in places we may not have been consciously aware of. This applies to people, the planet and all of existence. We can ignore the abuse of the planet, but the earth keeps score earthquakes, extreme weather, hurricanes and global warming remember. We can act as if there is no higher power to answer to, but we will give an account. Nature herself will be a witness, and "life" itself will set the record straight. Just listening to a conversation, music or program of some sort can open hidden pathways. Seeing something that shocks, stimulates or stuns us can both awake and/or create places for memories to dwell in. Thoughts are things and they occupy energy and room in existence, our "BEING" and our spirit (The Attitude of Behavior, Expression and Existence). We must "mind our minds." An uneducated soul will permit an undisciplined spirit to allow the lusts of the overrated body to go amok! Our "BEING," which includes the body, encompasses the effects of our diet, environment, exercise, pursuits and socialization that affect thinking. This theme rings true in whatever we do. Please read, research and comment as inspired. Revisit our posts to pick up on addendums and edits. We control our own destiny to the extent of what we feed our body, our soul, our spirit, our mind and our "BEING." Existence or "BEING" is a shared phenomenon with all things. We are not alone and there is a GOD that keeps track of it all!

BELIEFS, FACT, FAITH, FEELINGS, HOPE, PROOF & THEORIES
​There are at least seven measures most of us use as a basis to define or determine the rules we live by. These are what we use to define our health and wellbeing. ​Our overall HEALTH encompasses our mental, physical and spiritual well-being. We anticipate uncovering and offering measures that provide practical applications of immutable principles which are based on solid Biblical standards. It is every follower and patrons job to individually apply and relate it to their own everyday dilemmas and issues. This is the way to discover, define and practice the life changing principles we are discussing. There are immutable laws that are always present around us but sometimes we are not aware of them. In addition to this, there are principles applicable to every circumstance and situation we encounter. Once we become privy to and understand how to apply these "Laws of Principles" morally, ethically and legally we only need the wisdom to use those principles properly and maintain HIGH STANDARDS. We will not attempt to individually define the seven sources listed above that people use as a basis for how and why they do what they do. Instead we offer this broad and general phrase combined into a statement that compares and includes them all. ***("Our beliefs, shaped by what we are taught and experienced whether based on fact or embraced by faith form emotional feelings we hope to be true and as such we seek proof of them even if by theory.")*** We are all products of our environment, genetics and teaching. No one is exempt. Realizing this means that as spiritual beings we possess the capacity to question everything including ourselves. This also tells us that our philosophy in life is partially based on the theories we form. Theories should be held loosely and watched closely!

 MOTIVATED LIES, VALIDATED TRUTHS, rEACHABLE, TEACHABLE

Picture
There are no quick fixes or shortcuts when it comes to enduring and lasting results. However, somehow too many of us are still searching for that magic bullet or miraculous moment. Yes we believe in miracles but many instances of healing are not miraculously instantaneous. There is a new system of belief being taught that promotes instant gratification like drug injections and lottery windfalls. Buying into these fallacies serves to destroy our understanding of natural order. The zeitgeist of today is all about convenient, easy and instant. "C.E.I." is more than just a habit, it is a desire of a lifestyle to not have to work hard at anything. It can become a way of living, relating and thinking. Those who embrace or fall victim to such reasoning are likely to misappropriate the application of the work aspect that coincides with faith in God. In order to sanction the feelings we have, people tend to adopt, apply and embrace beliefs that align with their position. We have a tendency to reframe things to fit into new narratives. Today many Americans are buying into a "doctrine of fairness" that was designed to keep the media from being dominated by one sided coverage and opinions. Without the internet. propaganda would reign throughout news coverage by major outlets today. The new narrative frames "fairness" in a biased and limited way. This false teaching implies that we are equally responsible for the alleged resources evenly allocated and distributed among us. Power and wealth has never been "fairly" allocated or divided without a mandate to do so. This "distortion of fairness" is a lie being perpetuated and propagated by people, businesses and governments. It is being used to justify removing programs and support for threats, leverage and control. Although at first glance this might "appear" to be logical and practical it is not! In reality it is dangerous, selfish and makes everyone more vulnerable to things that can eventually affect us all! The law of loving our neighbor as ourselves operates beyond area codes, zip codes, cities, counties, states, countries and regions. We are in an interconnected world more now than any time in our recorded history. The strong can and should bear the infirmities of the weak. What affects one is bound to affect all in some manner, in some way and somehow! If "Covid" did not make this obvious to us, maybe the "war in Iran" will. If that doesn't convince us maybe the outbreak of a new strain of "Ebola" can, or perhaps the even greater death tolls from malaria and malnutrition will stir our compassion. Why is a continent so rich in exploitable minerals, oil and other resources still dealing with easily exportable food and nutritional supplies we simply throw in the trash each day? What a contrast; rich in dirt and poor in diet! Life with its battles, challenges and conflicts is not actually conducted on an even playing field. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth works as a code for even handed justice or retribution, but is usually the exception rather than the rule. Asymmetry can be defined as a lack of equality, equivalence, or balance. In asymmetry parts or responses do not match or mirror one another. Asymmetry is part of and operable in most of our encounters, it is more the order of the day. Life is not fair, it is opportunistic. Every chance it gets and every gap it finds it will exploit. Every opening we leave gives the vicissitudes of life a way for it to interfere with us! These posts are about principles not pity parties. Pain "relief" differs from pain "resolution." There is nothing wrong with relief on the way to resolution, but too many of us get stuck there. Alcohol, drugs, sex and other multiple types of indulgences are simply "QUICK FIXES." Quick fixes usually don't last they are not symmetrical and by design bring instant gratification. Quick fixes often fail to address the root cause. Masking and suppressing symptoms is in line with todays quick fix zeitgeist. We hearken to the quick fix by hearing what we want to hear and seeing what we want to see, partly because our cognitive and confirmation bias are being used against us. Here are some notions to think about. Do the work, don't drop the ball ponder and search these theories out.

EXPANDING ON THE BOOMERANG EFFECT 

​"The boomerang effect" refers to the unintended consequences of an action. It produces an outcome that results in the exact opposite of what was intended. It is neither asymmetrical or symmetrical, it usually comes as a surprise to those who initiated the action and presents additional problems. Cause and effect like reaping and sowing has traditionally been seen as a symmetrical or "same as" approach, response, action and reaction. This is the typical understanding people use when they apply the concept of "Newton's third  law of motion" to spiritual principles. Although this train of thought contains some logical and reasonable comparisons, life doesn't work that way. Asymmetry and asymmetrical applications, along with boomerang effects operate in more situations than what we realize. The war in Vietnam was an example of how asymmetry can work. While the United States employed aerial bombing and superior artillery the Vietnamese dug vast tunnel networks underground. The fight was not symmetrical it was closer to guerilla warfare. Guerrilla warfare involves unconventional combat tactics. This type of fighting can utilize small hidden groups to attack larger better armed troops through mobility, stealth and surprise. In some cases they may be able to harass and dismantle a larger, traditionally organized military force. This had more of a "boomerang effect" than a symmetrical response. Can we learn anything from this? Does it apply to the war in Iran, the Palestinian conflict or the war in Ukraine? Asymmetry works far beyond warfare. The tactic applies to economics, exploitation, exploration, protests and many other competitive or repressive ways power imposes itself on others. This is not a political party problem. It is a national policy issue. In modern times energy production is not asymmetrical. Today electrical power, the engine behind everyday living, growth and stability, can be harnessed in multiple ways. Depending on how we define "harnessing" power, there are a few countries dominating this industry. China dominates worldwide in the amount of electricity consumed, it accounts for roughly one-third of all global electricity demand of which a good portion is used to fuel its vast industrial sector. This is more than the U.S., EU, and India combined. China also leads the world in renewable energy capacity. The United States is now the second-largest producer and consumer of energy. The United States produces the "most oil" worldwide. Since 2018 the U.S. overtook Russia and began pumping more crude oil than any country in history! Although the U.S. leads the world in daily extraction and production speed, the U.S. does not hold the largest oil reserves. Venezuela possesses the largest proven oil reserves in the world, followed by Saudi Arabia and Iran. Our oil powered economy is now in competition with wind, solar and other types of energy. Does anyone see a pattern to the hegemony we are attempting to impose and maintain worldwide? Power in any form has to be reckoned with on way or another. Power carries a degree of arrogance and can force the oppressed to hunt for ways to create or discover alternate means of redress or survival. Banning a fisherman from fishing may force him into hunting. Banning hunting may force him into herding. Banning herding may force him into agriculture and gardening. Regulations sometimes only breeds innovations. Attacking the supply side of a problem may not adequately address the demand for what is being supplied. Isn't that what prohibition taught us? A demand and desire for alcohol, drugs, freedom, opportunity, sex or expression has a way of expressing itself one way or another in due time. It's almost impossible to kill a popular cause or idea. In the end, ultimately, no one wins at Whack-A-Mole! Only a change in consciousness, character and a desire to collectively uphold a standard or tradition can transition a society to adopt the emotional intelligence a person instructs within their soul and adopts into their spirit.

PRIORITIZING: WHAT'S IMPORTANT AND WHAT'S URGENT

A priority is considered to be a condition, duty, goal, or task that takes precedence over other things meeting the same criteria. It is generally distinguished as having a higher urgency or value to it. We learn to address them first and foremost. By not doing so we jeopardize other important aspects of our total wellbeing. When we take time to examine our own ENVIRONMENT both in a natural and spiritual way we get to see many of the other things associated and connected to it. Priorities are like keystone species, when they disappear it throws EVERYTHING else out of balance. A keystone species is an organism that holds an ecosystem together. Although they may not be the most abundant or largest species in their habitat, they have a disproportionately and usually enormous impact on it. If a keystone species is eradicated, reduced or removed, the ecosystem can collapse and undergo drastic, irreversible changes. Priorities are key! There are  things such as HUNGER, POVERTY, ECONOMICS and CONSCIOUSNESS that keystone to our environment. There are many other things that should be considered important, but "these" are more important than others. Woe be to a people who fail to place and prioritize what's most important. Prioritizing defines how we deal with competing matters of concern. The most urgent matters should always be addressed first even if other important ones have to wait. Although urgency and importance are similar we must make some distinctions between them. An urgent matter takes priority over an important one. An urgent situation must be addressed immediately. A burning house or a bleeding wound cannot wait for attention in spite of other important concerns. There are things that must be immediately considered as emergencies until proven otherwise. In war, military triage policies are designed to prioritize doing the greatest good for the greatest number of casualties with limited resources. Unlike civilian medicine, combat and disaster triage relies on prioritizing and providing treatment according to specific categories. They include immediate, delayed, minimal, and expectant as the criteria for allocating resources. As harsh as this may appear it must be done to maximize survival rates, preserve medical supplies, and safely return soldiers to active duty. The fierce "urgency of now" goes beyond the historical rallying cry of Dr. Martin Luther king. When we apply this same principle to the welfare of our souls it beckons us to act immediately and in a timely fashion, especially when God opens a door and gives us the blessings of opportunity. Many people look for and expect a gift of instantaneous results or material substance. This is not necessarily how God works. In reality it is the exception rather than the rule. The Bible warns us that "An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed." God does not ever work like a casino, a lottery, numbers game or sudden windfall. God opens doors that we must walk through. Sometimes God only shows us the door, and we must fight and labor to obtain the key while struggling along the way. Faith can operate in spite of doubt and belief can be strengthened by hope no matter how far-fetched. Sometimes blessings can be snatched and taken when a certain kind of faith is exercised, even without God's direct consent! 

BAMBOOZLED, brainwashed, DECEIVED, GASLIT, GROOMED, manipulated and tricked

​Today's zeitgeist offers us a deceptive picture of life. There is a false doctrine, a faked truth, a lie and a fallacy being adopted and believed. What is being advocated and perpetuated through popular opinion is also being ingrained into our consciousness. Many people have adopted a way of thinking that is based on achieving strength without struggle. It's like working out to build muscle using steroids rather than hard work that demands discipline and exercise. The promises of GLP1's is a prime example of how we can lose weight without working at it. As such this new generation are anticipating and even expecting an abrupt instantaneous "pill like" quick fix to their problems and the situations they get into. When we embrace solutions that come without strain, stress and struggle they cannot and will not be properly appreciated. Looking for some type of instantaneous gratification, miracle, quick fix or salvation that manifests in the "NOW" is the order of the day. Miracles may be declared formed and made in the "NOW," but they are often slowly ushered in through time and manifested in the future. The gap between now and the future should be filled in by faith. The "WORK of FAITH" often requires being tried in the fire, going through something and getting molded and refined. "WORKING PRAYER" must be distinguished from how prayer works! Effort is required, fight is a prerequisite and the battle must be fought to be won. Victory will last when the war has decisively ended not just temporarily suspended. Let's get used to the fact that this is a lifelong battle that goes from victory unto victory. The Devil will not quit. He may flee for a season but temptation never goes on vacation! GOD is not a pill! Our efforts coupled with GOD's power is one ingredient of the "WORK of FAITH." Most healing is not instantaneous! Most examples of deliverance operate through stages of development. GOD wants us to learn the lesson from the blessing. Give a man a fish and we feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and he can feed himself for a lifetime. We are strengthened through struggle. The workout delivers the results. Molding and shaping are a "PROCESS" often done through adding intense heat and going through the fire. We must learn to "trust in the process." If we trust in GOD, we will "trust the process." We must realize that teaching contains instantaneous energy that begins operating at the moment it impacts the student. Learning works through practice and experience which takes time! Breakthroughs are simply points in time we take notice of. We should not let the "spirit of the day" manipulate and twist our feelings. "Jesus Christ the same today, yesterday and forever."

THE EXPLOITATION OF OUR FEELINGS

Picture
Without an educated soul tempered by emotional intelligence we will be victimized! By simply listening and looking around it will become obvious and easier to see the vast "spiritual conspiracy" designed to appeal directly to our feelings. We are being exploited by the systemic use of people products and propaganda geared to capitalize on an age old innate human weakness established in the Garden of Eden. If it has not become obvious to most of us by now, let's make it plain once again. In advertising and marketing the objective is to appeal to us by scent and sight. Is it all about optics and tickling ears? Whether it's needed or not, smells are added to cleaners, clothes, deodorants, detergents, fabrics, foods, hair products, linen, lotions, soaps and more. Whether it's practical or not, performers and products by design seek to appeal to our senses. Beautifully ergonomic, classically designed, esthetically pleasing, sensually appealing and other terminologies capitalize on how things look above how they work. Most everything from cars to cosmetics, from pills to potions and from living space to relationships are being based on how they make us feel! ​"The most prevalent hang-up people have with their psyche is emotional reasoning." Today there are multiple denominations and doctrines that teach even the most sincere believers ways which are not in line with God's ways. Prosperity is measured in our souls wellbeing not in our bank accounts or financial disposition. “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” The contradictions that so many of us encounter regarding the way God works are not in God or in his word they are in us. In times of technological advances, discoveries and invention it's hard to know what to believe and embrace. Until we can authoritatively reconcile new things, we can hold them loosely while watching closely. So often we focus primarily on our sins but ignore our iniquities. God is not like us! We must continually ask ourselves in times of decision (W.W.J.D.) what would Jesus do? Why do emotional and gut wrenching displays of effort or failure have such a profound effect on us? Do we not realize that the personalities, systems and the "zeitgeist of the day," by design seduces and capitalizes on our emotions? Their aim is to get us to buy into them and the thoughts and things they are selling through manipulating our feelings. As valid as they may appear or seem to be, feelings can easily deceive us!

THE GOSPEL: POVERTY AND prosperity redefined

​Jesus redefined prosperity "through poverty" and taught us that the blessed were the poor in spirit. “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven." Does this mean that being affluent can create a barrier to God's blessings? On one hand the answer is yes, but on the other hand even if we give everything that we own to feed the poor it may not be enough! Are possessions a pitfall? Is money evil? Is ownership onerous? Are riches repugnant? Whether we are aware of it or not, prosperity thinking and theology is nothing new. Historically most cultures and people traditionally believe that those with greater tangible and temporal abundance are in greater favor with the "gods." The association between wealth and health is not just a feeling it is a fact. People at the upper ends of an economic and social ladder are at a distinct advantage. Wealth provides means for better food, healthcare, housing, medicine and sanitation which has a profound effect on health. Prosperity defined in terms of financial wealth has caused the downfall of many great men. The downfalls will continue to accumulate more and more over time. The love of money can corrupt church goers from parishioners to pastors. The devil is in the details of earthly prosperity schemes. This is why they created the fake "prosperity gospel, the health and wealth gospel, the gospel of success, the seed-faith gospel, The Faith movement and The Word of Faith movement. These became a belief among some "so called" Charismatic Christians. It originated in the United States and has spread worldwide. There are multiple approaches to these schemes that in reality are scams. One of the ideas is that financial blessing and physical well-being are always the will of God for all, and that faith, positive scriptural confession, and giving to charitable and religious causes will increase one's material wealth. This falls in line with many traditional beliefs that material and especially financial success is seen as evidence of divine grace or favor and blessings. It also implies that the opposite is that of judgment. Jesus, our prime example, embraced the appearance and persona of everyday regular people. Jesus did not adorn himself as a king, neither did he indulge in luxuries. Jesus used donkeys for limos and old fishing boats for yachts. The mountains were his penthouse and the wilderness his hotel. Can anyone tell us where Jesus lived? What was his address? ​The foxes had holes, and the birds of the air had nests; but Jesus had no certain place to lay his head!

THE FACTS THE FAITH AND THE FORMULA

Picture
"God works in mysterious ways, his wonders to perform." This quote from a 1773 hymn by English poet William Cowper mischaracterizes our understanding of  God. Yes, GOD DOES WORK IN  WONDROUS WAYS and "there is no secret what God can do!" Although God's ways are far above our ways and his thoughts above our thoughts, the only mystery as to how God works should specifically be with those who don't believe in or don't know God! The Bible lets us know that he made known his way to Moses and his acts to the children of Israel. In the "Kingdom of Heaven" there are conditions and criteria for creating the consequences we desire. It is mans haphazard hypothesis that are most harmful to God's interventions. When the disciples of Jesus wanted to call down fire from heaven to consume those who rejected them, Jesus rebuked his own disciples and told them they do not know what manner of spirit they were. Being or feeling vindictive can cause us to react improperly. Reactions and responses are two different ways people deal with issues. Chastisement, correction, punishment and rebuke are generally the ways we learn from our mistakes. Unfortunately it's punishment, traditionally applied through fear, that has been and continues to be adopted and modeled by the majority of mankind. Praise is a far better motivation for change then is punishment. A careful and critical interpretation of Matthew chapter seven can have a chilling effect on how we see life and ourselves. One of the biggest problems we face reading and reciting Biblical principles are namely chapter and verse. The snippets we use to explain or justify our attitudes, behaviors and feelings are similar to news commentators on CNN, FOX or MSNBC. The sermon on the mount is summarized in three chapters from Matthew 5 - 7. Let's site a few examples. "Judge not that ye be not judged" is straightforward. Using "not" twice is classic cause and effect language. Don't do something and something else won't happen. So what is it that we shouldn't do here? The active word is judging. That's easy, most of us know what judging is or at least what judgements are and what judges do. The word can be used as both a noun and a verb. This means we can be a judge and we also can pass judgement. The condemnation we feel and the sentence we pass sets the tone. The word isn't very complicated, we make critical decisions and determinations through hearing and observations everyday. We still must call a spade a spade. So it stands to reason, that it's more about how we do it rather than what we do. Fortunately, in the gospel of John, chapter seven covers the same topic and clarifies it even more. “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” That simplifies it, meaning that the way we judge has to meet a certain criteria and must be based on a righteously established standard. There is no one righteous other than God so that makes it God's standard. Where can we find that standard? Let's use the "Ten Commandments" and other biblical principles. We don't need to complicate it any further, it like reaping and sowing. The next verse says,"​For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again." This means that the same criteria, manner, method, scrutiny or way we use to form and pass a verdict on others will be used on us! If we are harsh towards others expect harshness towards ourselves. If we are merciful towards others mercy is following behind us. And the Bible declares that "mercy rejoiceth against judgement!" Read the entire chapter, the boomerangs are all in there; the beam in our eye, the fruit that we bear, the iniquity that we work and the house that we build!  NOW THAT'S THE WAY IT WORKS!

FAITH AND THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD

​This is about practicing principles that we can take responsibility for, and uphold standards that enforce and follow the "D.I.P." of life. The "D.I.P." of life represents God's Designed and Intended Purposed of natural order! Order is a methodical arrangement, sequence, or organization of authority, law and occurrences. Much of science is based on the discovery of life's creative order that theoretically holds true universally. Coincidence plainly tells us that there are no random or unrelated events in life. Theory allows us to structure factual information into a form that we can embrace as a hypothesis. Embracing the "thesis-antithesis-synthesis triad" allows us to construct a dialectical framework we can use for dealing with cognitive and intellectual conflicts. We have discovered that many, if not most, of the problems we fail to resolve are due to the method(s) we apply to fix them. Sometimes it's more about how we approach the situation rather than what we do about it. Many of us are stubborn and stuck in our minds. We believe that if it worked before it will work again. Life comes with a disclaimer that says "past performance is no guarantee of future success!" This is a fundamental investing principle warning! HISTORICAL DATA CANNOT PREDICT FUTURE OUTCOMES! We must learn how to expand our knowledge without compromising our principles. Applications and techniques can and should evolve over time helping us to raise standards rather than erase them! The promised we give to our followers and patrons is to always thoroughly research topics and deliver information that can then be applied and practiced from the principles presented. "The proof will be in the pudding." The main asset we offer is the ability to honestly and openly share our experiences, insights and studies along with the revelations we've derive from them. The universe always responds to actions, and we intend to reveal how to apply the acts that bring results. God is not a pill or a program. Many of the tactics that we use to solicit God's favor and tap into God's power have been misconstrued, misinterpreted and therefore misapplied. Many of our own framing and narratives have a tendency to twist the foundational principles God has laid down for us to follow. It is when we meet God's conditions that God has to and must honor his word. People often misread and misinterpret scripture, then try to apply faith to fallacy.

THE SOUL, THAT IS OFTEN REFERED TO, BUT IS RARELY DEFINED OR DESCRIBED, IS PART OF OUR EXISTENCE. THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF THIS POST. BY THE END OF THIS POST WE EXPECT OUR PATRONS TO HAVE A NEW APPRECIATION FOR THE SOUL. OUR SOULS BASICALLY REPRESENT THE CULTURE OF OUR CONSCIOUSNESS. SIMILAR TO THE CULTURE OF ANY BUSINESS, CHURCH, GOVERNMENT OR ORGANIZATION, THE SOUL DESCRIBES THE ENERGY AND FEELING OF ITS OPERATIONAL MODEL AND POLICIES. SOUL REPRESENTS CHARACTER AND CONSCIOUSNESS. THE VISIBLE HEART AND INVISIBLE SOUL EMERGE FROM WITHIN THE SPIRITUAL REALM BUT PRIMARILY EXPRESS THEMSELVES THROUGH THE MAJORITY OF OUR EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL AND TANGIBLE INTERACTIONS. WE SHOULD BE KEENLY AWARE OF OUR SPIRIT WHICH CONSTITUTES THE "ATTITUDE OF OUR BEHAVIOR AND BEING" IS GOVERNED BY OUR SOUL WHICH IS "THE SEAT OF OUR CONSCIOUSNESS AND THINKING" AND ALL CONTAINED IN A BODY OF FLESH WHICH IS OUR "PHYSICAL REALM OF EXISTENCE AND EXPRESSION.​"

THE WAY WE LIVE THIS LIFE IS HOW WE ETERNAL OUR SOULS

Why is so little attention given to our souls? The soul is an intricate part of our being and although we casually refer to it, many of us do not know what it actually is. The main battle we are engaging from within ourselves is centered around the soul. The seat of our consciousness is located there and the influences that originate from our flesh and affect our spirit are arbitrated by the soul. The role of the soul as ruler should never be underestimated. We educate our souls as children and allow them to guide us as adults. The realization and understanding that we all have a soul connected to our spirit and engaged with our flesh is one of the most important things to comprehend regarding our existence! It's easy to grasp that we live in a body, but it takes abstract thinking with a Godly consciousness founded in faith to embrace the true significance of flesh, soul and spirit. Our souls originate from within the spiritual realm, but express primarily through our natural interactions in the flesh. Our spirit, the attitude of being and behavior, are our lifeforce and source of energy. The soul and spirit interact in a manner similar to the way thoughts and ideas are mediated between the brain and the mind. The soul being an invisible and intangible part of our existence is on par with the mind which has those same qualities. The spirit or "life force" we feel powering us from within is comparable to our thinking brain under the conscious control of the soul. Although we describe flesh, soul and spirit separately, the reality is that they are one. God alone, has the ability to divide them. Our flesh, soul and spirit operate in tandem, what happens to one will always affect the others. A sober soul helps to insure a healthy being and body. An educated and sober soul understands the sacredness of sobriety. S.O.B.E.R. is an acronym for the following saying: "The Soul is the Overlord of our Behavior if we Educate it and allow it to Rule." The educated soul does not substitute one addiction for another.

CHARACTERISTICS EXPRESSIONS & INTERACTIONS OF SOUL

​There are many theories about the soul and its interconnected levels of expression. The animal aspect of our soul considered to be the lowest level is said to connect to our physical body. It deals with our instincts, desires, physical senses and urges. Our emotions, personality, and speech come into play at the next level that bridges the physical body with the intellectual brain connected to the spiritual mind. This Intellectual component links to the next level which contemplates thought to create character. It uses the cognitive, analytical and the active spiritual components of our consciousness. From here an even higher level of rational awareness, intuition, and raw life force come into play. It is a level that can decipher truth and can operate outside of "conscious" thought. This all culminates in the most intimate essence of the soul that was breathed into a lifeless man. The soul of an individual comes into the world clean and pure. The gradual corruption of our souls starts after we are born and will continue unabated throughout our lifetime if we allow it to. A baby's innocence is as obvious as its helplessness at birth. Our spiritually invisible soul shares a connection with our physically visible heart as it operates autonomously. Many comparisons between the heart and soul are expressed in multiple commandments, poems and songs. In the same way that heart disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally, soul disease (SSD) is the leading cause of darkness in the world. People constantly seek medical attention for their ailing hearts, but how many of us seek healing for our Sin Sick Souls. The correlation is astonishing, notice how the psalmist asks God to "gift him" with a clean heart while "renewing" a right spirit inside. The first heart transplant ever performed was done by God, the only heart and soul surgeon! In light of all we do or say our souls ultimately must answer to GOD. God speaks to us constantly. Don't our hearts burn within us as we hear and listen to God's voice when it comes through his disciples? Only GOD knows the true condition of our soul. The most important thing to remember is that we have a soul and must give an account for it. Even an educated soul can fall victim to life and the circumstances it brings. However, our soul cannot be conquered or forfeited but they can be won over if not properly guarded. Even under the worse conditions we can always take them back. INVICTUS wrote a poem that many people recite but fail to understand. He knew that his soul was under his control even if it went astray.

"Out of the night that covers me
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance,
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeoning's of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul."

"SELL OUTS" DON'T LOSE THEIR SOULS THEY GIVE THEM AWAY

Our souls have the spiritual capacity to seek satisfaction and/or settle for a substitute. The soul  can burn, desire and yearn for all sorts of things. Once the soul becomes aware and sensitized to something, the soul has the option to seek after it for contentment and satisfaction. Too many times we leave our souls hanging. Our souls seek relief from the stress of the cares they carry. The educated soul knows where to find it. The soul can actively and freely functions at every level within mans free morally controlled consciousness. This includes any of the energy which affects our thinking, our subconscious thoughts and our unconscious dreams. Part of the soul's function is to reconcile cognitive dissonance and the ongoing conflicts between the body and spirit. "whether in the flesh through the brain" or in "the spirit through the mind." The soul constantly negotiates between desires, lusts, needs, stimuli, urges and just plain old wants. The soul has the final say, even if it's in conflict with the overall best interest of the entire body. This is one of the reasons why we keep our bodies under subjection and watch what, when, where and who we let our spirits come into contact with. The body is subject to its appetites and the spirit is subject to its attractions. The soul must be educated so it can both arbitrate and take a stand. Although emotions and feelings constitute a significant part of our total makeup, they can be deceptive. We all have feelings and feel emotions, and when emotions begin moving there's always a tendency to misinterpret their meanings. Agency and self control is built into the fabric of the soul. Whenever we allow anything from abuse to addictions to overrule our best interest we have sold out! Many of us think that we know what love is and define it by how we think it makes us feel. Unfortunately, feelings are learned, and when they are learned wrong, we tend to manifest the aberrant behaviors through emotionally based reactions. What we regard as LOVE is often actually something else in disguise. The truth is that there is no such thing as "unconditional LOVE." The concept is often misconstrued and the terminology is not scriptural, spiritual or even found in the Bible. God does not place pre-conditions on us for God's love to reach us, but there are requirements to maintain a spiritual relationship with God.​ LOVE does not make us dictators or doormats. First Corinthians chapter thirteen specifically differentiates loves' attributes and behaviors. Feeling something deep within our souls is not the only criteria for defining love or anything else!​

BUSINESSES & ORGANIZATIONS EXPRESS & SELL THEIR SOUL

The heart and soul of a restaurant is its food, but if the staff of cashiers, cooks, managers, and servers function or operate in a hostile environment, it will be reflected in the spirit of the food and feelings of that restaurant. The heart and soul of a church is fellowship and love. There are visible signs that distinguish the church from any other organization. It must be centered on a devoted relationship with God through Jesus Christ. It is characterized by the actions which reflect God's love to the world. The commitment to the mission of sharing and spreading the "Gospel" and ministering to others as well as themselves describes the spiritual aspect of its calling. The heart and soul of any business is in the belief and practice of its core principles. Its purpose and values are an intangible and invisible aspect of its functioning. Its culture, the intangible essence that defines it, is illustrated in its identity which drives passion, and guides decision-making beyond just profitability. Although strategies may act as the ten percent (10%) or less consciously controlled part of the "brain," the culture and mission act as the ninety percent (90%) or more autonomous portion behind the emotional center connecting people, fostering authenticity and sustaining the organizations heart and soul. This means that the employees, which are people, who are really the heart and soul of most non-automated businesses. Many times purchased businesses get exploited rather than saved. Investment entities like hedge funds, private equity firms (PE) and Venture capital organizations often prioritize short-term profitability over long-term stability. They tend to employ strategies such as excessive debt loading, massive layoffs, and asset stripping. In 2025, PE firms were involved in over 50% of the largest U.S. corporate bankruptcies, resulting in significant job losses. The primary goal of such acquisitions was simply profit. Sometimes these "leeches" will run the companies they buy into the ground, extract all of the life blood they can and leave them hemorrhaging in the gutter. They corrupt and destroy the soul of many of the business they acquire. More and more modern day online business models are being managed and run by A.I. The "enshittification" of businesses today are a shameful testimony to the greed and profit compromising the soul of many enterprises. “Enshittification” is a term that is appropriate and fits its meaning. It is so relevant to our circumstances, that it has become more than just a buzzword. “Enshittification” actually defines the entire moment that we are in. The term was coined by the prolific technology critic and author Cory Doctorow. Doctorow came up with this phrase in 2022 to describe how most of the digital services that increasingly dominate our daily lives seem to be getting worse simultaneously. Google Search has become enshittified. It takes us to more and more ads and product links ahead of and rather than the relevant website results we're after. TikTok got enshittified by artificially “heating” specific videos so that some would go viral. Twitter became royally enshittified as X and loss its status as a global town square. The same things are happening with Spotify, iPhones, Adobe software and e-mail inboxes. The technologies we depend on and have grown to be accustomed to are being used against us. “Enshittification” was named the word of the year by the American Dialect Society in 2023 and by Australia’s Macquarie Dictionary in 2024. The embrace of the term reflects a sense of collective frustration. The improvements many technologies make are being redesigned to extract value from users and clients while explicitly driving profit for the companies themselves. Even as Facebook's experiences got worse, Meta double dipped by getting free labor from content creators while simultaneously extracting revenue from advertisers. Uber now algorithmically manipulates the rates that drivers are paid, while conditioning users to lower their expectations. Most of today's "enshittification" progresses through three phases. At first a company is good to users drawing participants in droves. Then the company consolidates that audience with dependencies. Finally the company exploits its market share with business ventures for mutual profit. On the personal side, if we are honest with ourselves, we will discover that whenever we make ethical or moral compromises, like them, we are actually selling our souls. How do we describe the soul of a nation of immigrants that fear immigration?

is it well with our soul?

GATEKEEPERS: EARS, EYES, FLESH AND MIND 

The significance of the soul must never be underestimated. It is our minds immune system. It operates similar to the way that our physical bodies immune system fights foreign pathogens. The immune system as we understand it can be broken down into two types, they are called the innate and the adaptive defense systems. The innate or non-specific immune system has a broad spectrum response to anything it suspects is invasive. this is why our eyes water, noses run skin itches and we sneeze. The adaptive, more tailored, immune system designs and builds memory specific ways to recognize and deal with anything that gets by an innate response. The soul, our spiritual immune system works both intellectually (innate) and autonomously (adaptive) to filter out the garbage that would infect our brains and minds. Our spiritual being wrestles against unseen powers. The tangible natural side of our existence is armed with biological gatekeepers called antibodies. There are B-cells, leukocytes, lymphocytes, macrophages and many other components protecting us from all kinds of diseases. This includes a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs. The intangible side of our being is managed by a spiritual gatekeeper called the soul which resides over our freedom to choose and shape our own destiny. There are angels and divine precepts, promises and sacrifices enabling us to overcome wickedness. Victory in any warfare requires infiltration. Much of the infiltration we suffer come through our ears and eyes. The heart which is also closely affiliated with and connected to the soul, must be kept with all diligence. This is where the "issues of life" are decided. The idea that we operate on both a natural and spiritual plane of existence is not something that can be tangibly proven. We believe that the strength of a belief or ideology should be measured in how difficult it is to disprove it, rather than how eloquently we defend it. It's not proven by how many people accept or agree with it. When a belief, concept or idea stands the test of time after being attacked, broken down, criticized, dissected, examined, scrutinized and torn apart, it is then and only then that it gains and maintains credibility. Most of us fight and strive to prove what we personally believe is right rather than continually question it to discover how or where our interpretation and perspective of it might be wrong! 
Picture
The evidence of a soul fits this criteria exactly. The evidence of reality beyond the purely physical can be proven by science but the science must be sound. Science must also be scrutinized by the same type of attacks that religious beliefs are subjected to. Science in all of its logical and sound foundational proofs has one major flaw. Science can meticulously break down and explain the "how" but it falls short in answering the question that forms the basis of religious beliefs, mainly the "what or who" and the why. It's apparent that whatever we observe in nature we can find a physical explanation for. We see that in science chemistry explains biology and physics explains chemistry. We may not have a complete unified theory, but we do have an extraordinarily successful track record of scientific explanations that cannot be ignored. The main reason that we posit or tackle the meaning of life beyond the physical is the soul. The soul searches for answers to questions posed from more than an intellectual basis. The soul looks beyond reasonable explanations and explores regions of the mind that the brain cannot satisfy. The soul question the unseen yet firmly felt regions of invisibility that exist without evidence. In reality it was the soul that developed and encouraged scientific research into the microscopic arena of atoms, germs and molecules even before we could explain or see them! The soul asks why! Why is there something rather than nothing? Why do the laws of physics operate within the form we've discovered? Why does the universe even exist? Most importantly, why does the universe contain human beings capable of asking these questions?  Leonardo Davinci once said and is quoted that "the greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions." The Bible informs us repeatedly, that all of nature knows the answers to these questions of why, but only mankind has the capability to ponder them. That is the liberty given to us for "free moral agency," that is the autonomy and privilege of the human soul. "But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this? In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind." Is this not from the twelfth chapter of the Book of Job?

GAMBLING, THE GATEWAY FOR GAIN THROUGH GREED

When it  comes to "sell outs" the U.S. government tops the list! The history of gambling alone illustrates this emphatically! Our challenge is defining the differences between what's possible, what's predictable and what's probable. As a nation we've "sold our souls" by conquering natives and then colonizing or exploiting them. This is not to mention hegemony, slavery and war. We can see how the selling of the soul of our nation has become an ongoing legacy. Today, once again new ethical and moral compromises are being made for the love of money. Gambling has always been considered a vice. A vice is any behavior, habit or practice established as ethically, legally or morally wrong. A vice is a violation of a standard and/or tradition that is known to be corrupt and/or depraved. A vice also refers to things deemed unhealthy like prostitution or smoking. Gambling is just like taking an unnecessary chance. We are told that life is a gamble, but that's not true! When we try to achieve or do something we haven't done before, that is considered taking a chance but it is not gambling. Learning is all about striving and struggling to master another skill. The educated soul knows what its trying to do, and learning the lessons of life differs from enrolling in a school of higher learning. Whether we acknowledge it or not its important to distinguish life's lessons from schools lessons. In school we're taught the lesson first and then tested. In life we're given the test first in hopes of learning the lesson. Gambling in the United States has a history of sporadic regulations combined with moral and religious disapproval. In the early days of the British Colonies, lotteries were used not only as a form of "so called" gambling but also as a source of government revenue. Historically, gambling has been as prevalent as the seven capital vices, namely pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth. It is easy to gamble on just about anything. Anyone can engage in betting or wagering with and/or without money. The Devil and Daniel Webster is a story about a man who sold his soul but won it back.  So many forms of gambling exist from blackjack, cock fights, dog fights, horse racing, pigeon races, (a multimillion dollar spectacle) poker and any other type of luck and chance. Blessings, faith, good fortune and luck can become difficult to distinguish or tell apart in the final analysis when the results appear to be one of prosperity. Gambling has been expressed in multiple forms from shooting craps (dice), to casino gambling, keno, margin investing, options trading, scratch tickets, state lotteries and plain old betting. Gambling is also another form of instant gratification. Sports betting that uses venues like "Draftkings," "Fanduel" and others are available on any smartphone. In addition to this selling our souls to gambling disquised as prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket allow us to bet on just about anything from war to weather. There are many things which appear to be gambling that are not! Even the soldiers at the crucifixion of Jesus cast lots. However, casting lots may not be the same as true gambling. Although they both involve chance, there is a  significant difference in their purpose and motivation. Casting lots was used as a method for seeking a divine or heavenly sign. It was used to ensure a fair or impartial decision. The difference is that gambling involves risking money or something of value on some random outcome for personal, financial gain. All betting is not gambling, but it can come so close that it's intention may be. Gambling, unlike most other iniquities or sins involves elements of belief and feigned faith that originate from and are rooted in witchcraft. Gambling can be involved in any activity we do or thought process we use from betting to investing. Gambling by design allows us to delve into the future to some extent by temporarily playing the role of God. Gambling applies belief in ways it was never meant to be used. Gambling allows us to think that we can see, determine, effect, change, influence and/or predict the future by manipulation or looking beyond signs ordained by God. The normal course of events, forces, people and nature was never meant to be exploited for gain or profit. If we take a gamble it will involve some level of witchcraft. Gambling can corrupt character and our souls by manipulating belief in "future" occurrences outside of its unknown course. Only the word of God is guaranteed to be fulfilled and absolutely come to pass every time. Gambling is a mimicking act that creates confidence through subtility. Gambling can become a fake form of applying faith. Gambling often takes history, logic, numbers and patterns into account. Gambling can infect a souls connection to its spirit and body. Life is not a gamble, it is a gift! Serving and worshipping God is not about taking a chance it's about making a vow!

OUR BEHAVIOR OUR SOULS TECHNOLOGY & A.I. 

​A.I. may or may not have a soul but it does have a will! When God breathed the "breath of life" into man he became a "living soul!" When man programmed the "power of intelligence" into processing software machines were given a dark soul. By design A.I. is not built to be self intentional. Originally, A.I. functioned as a glorified algorithm. We asked questions and it found the answers using its vast accumulated data pool from large language models called (LLM's). A.I. was about assistance, like a copilot helping us to navigate, but we still did the work. The new and subtle shift today is A.I.'s ability to take a goal and autonomously return finished work. The basis, context and perspective A.I. takes into consideration are all originally derived from our corruptible nature. The version of reality we hear and/or see, ideally bundled together today, can easily be subject to manipulation by the perspective of the reporter, adjusted by the algorithm of the editor or tampered with by mechanisms inserted by broadcasters. Do not our souls search for​ legitimate answers to simple questions like: If we can automatically register citizens online for selective service into the armed forces, why can't we do the same when it comes to voting? With all of the technological advances and miraculous breakthroughs why is it that we aren't trying to solve mankind's historically greatest issues? With all that is facing us today, why are so many A.I. agents geared toward personal companions, sexual satisfaction and social popularity? What about issues like world hunger, alcohol and drug addiction, deadly diseases and world peace? Apparently the soul of man's philosophy today and the zeitgeist of the time is based on selfish motives. If the dawning of A.I. is so awesome and filled with such miraculous potential, why don't we task it with solving the most important problems we have? Is it because our "philosophy of soul" is one of greed, power, pride, profit and world domination? Have we philosophically sold our souls? Is it possible that A.I. will be more benevolent and not as malevolent as its creators and parents? We suspect that it will behave as any child and continue in the behaviors and ways of its progenitors! Is following in the footsteps of those who paved the way destiny? Is most of our analytical reasoning, ethical evaluation, fundamental questioning, thinking and worldview corrupted to the point that we will intuitively and unintentionally transfer a corrupt philosophy on how to live within artificial intelligence? Philosophy is a systematic study of fundamental truths. The soul, in the pursuit of wisdom, must establish and accept the standards and values it deems to be fundamental to core beliefs. The critical analysis of these beliefs defines existence and the application of  knowledge. The soul utilizes such reasoning to define and develop ethics and call it reality.  Metaphysics  and logic can only then seek to answer "the big question" about what life is and what it means. ​

WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT TODAY? WITH ALL OF THE TRANSITIONS, TURBULENCE AND TURMOIL AROUND US IT IS HARD TO MAINTAIN OUR FOCUS. WHAT should WE PRIORTIZE AND KEEP IN MIND? DO FISH DRINK? MOST OF US HAVE NEVER STOPPED TO CONSIDER THIS QUESTION. YES, FISH HYDRATION CAN BE BOTH HYPERTONIC AND/OR HYPOTONIC, BUT WE HAVE BIGGER FISH TO FRY HERE. LET'S GET SOMETHING MORE IMORTANT IN OUR HEADS; JUST REMEMBER THAT MIND AND SPIRIT ARE INSEPARBLE. THIS HAS BEEN AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE ONE OF THE PRIMARY THEMES BEHIND EVERY POST OR PUBLICATION WE PRODUCE. OUR THOUGHTS ARE INTEGRATED INTO OUR SPIRITS. BUT OUR SPIRITS ARE SUFFERING FROM COGNITIVE DISSONANCE, AND ITS AFFECTING OUR MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH. STRESS IS A SILENT KILLER! LIFE WITHOUT PEACE IS JUST LIVING AND WEALTH WITHOUT HEALTH IS ABOUT THE SAME. this post offers several alternatives to the cares of this world and the deceitfullness of riches. THERE IS A WIDENING GAP BETWEEN RHETORIC AND REALITY. HERE ARE TEN (10) points and THOUGHTS TO PONDER SPIRITUALLY. IF WE CONCENTRATE ON THESE AND THEIR PRINCIPLES, THEY SHOULD ADDRESS MANY OF OUR PRIMARY CONCERNS, ASSIST WITH PROBLEM SOLVING AND KEEP US CENTERED.​ANXIETY, LIKE ANGER HAS A TENDENCY TO STIR WITHIN OUR MINDS QUIETLY. SOMETIMES IT GOES UNRECOGNIZED. HERE ARE SOME SIGNS! IT STARTS WITH US!

SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT IS PARAMOUNT
IN A
VIRTUALLY MANIPULATED WORLD

​This post is written in the spirit of Richard P. Feynman. He advocated reading, studying and thinking as the path to TRUE learning. The focus here is more about learning to think, "critical thinking," and its "meaning" more than anything else. This post is about solving problems and 12 questions Richard recommended that we should ask ourselves before coming to definitive conclusions that can turn into beliefs!.

SO WHO WAS RICHARD P. FEYNMAN?

THE TWELVE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD ASK & PONDER AFTER REACHING CONCLUSIONS
1. How can I improve this proof?
2. Is there a counterexample I'm missing?
3. What's the simplest way to explain this?  
4. What assumptions am I making here?
5. Can this be generalized?
6. How does this relate to my previous work (beliefs, findings)?
7. Is there a more intuitive approach?
8. What did I overlook?
9. Can I test this with an example?
10. What are the consequences of this idea?
11. Who else has worked on this problem?
12. What's the next question to ask?

THE TRANSFORMATIVE THREAT AND BENEFITS A.I. BRINGS

The "spirit of greed," A.K.A. (also known as) the love of money is running rampart! Every beneficial creation, discovery or invention by mankind is being monetized for profit. It also turns out that if money cannot be made off of something good we bury it. Built in or planned obsolescence, lifespan and longevity have become a part of the design and build process in industry for some time. The lightbulb industry conspired decades ago to insure that incandescent bulbs would not last to long to increase their profit and sales. The "Maytag" brand of dishwashers were known for durability and longevity back in the 70's until they acquired  and rebranded as the inferior "Amana" products line. In 2006 whirlpool bought them out. How do their products measure up today? Toyota, still known as the "longest lasting brand" built a reputation off of its automobiles lifetime. They have maintained it with some exceptions. "Built to break," is an expression that describes the deliberate limitations that manufactures design into their products forcing repeat purchases by consumers. Be not deceived every business for profit's primary goal is to make money. Don't buy into the advertised lie or line about their calling, their passion or their purpose. They are all a part of the promotions. The pitch may be that they're here to help us, but the reality is that they're here to MAKE MONEY! This principle, based on GREED, has worked and continues working to this day. The culture of this country promotes "STATUS SPENDING." Keeping up with the Jones' is built into the advertising and commercials that proliferate all of multimedia. Rather than building wealth people are choosing to look wealthy. Personal fame, fashion and finance are being promoted along with synthetic love and relationships. The irony of it all is that the newest product off of the shelf being advertised and that EVERYONE, "note the word," is buying into has no rival. A.I. is the new buzz word. A.I. is playing into a scenario that is occurring in a silent and sinister way. A.I.'s threatening potential came to light recently when The president designated the A.I. company Anthropic as a national security risk earlier this year! Claude, which is considered one of the best A.I.. platforms was at the center of this dispute. How could a contract dispute come between a guaranteed profit for a company with the U.S. government, who can print money at will? The fact is that the A.I. (artificial intelligence) spending boom has not produced any economic growth. Rather than enhancing personal productivity and consumer spending it is replacing todays entry level workforce and will probably produce an economic effect contrary to that of "across the board" consumer prosperity and wealth. By unintended design perhaps, A.I. is creating contrary effects. Take note of the choice of the all inclusive word we use. "EVERYTHING," within our known existence operates through some form or level of spiritual energy! From rocks to rockets there is an ingrained "expression of behavior" innate within, A.I. is no exception. Artificial intelligence is a form of spiritual engineering. Messing with spirits is dangerous and beyond the ability of humanity to direct, limit and manipulate successfully without losing control. The covid-19 pandemic illustrated this, but the primary example was in the garden of Eden. A.I. presently comes in three basic flavors. There are agents for each. "Generative A.I." develops content like text and images from prompts. A.I. agents use developed models to perform specific, predefined tasks with tools. Agentic A.I. is a far more advanced and autonomous system which orchestrates and organizes multiple agents to plan and execute complex, multi-step workflows. This can be done without constant human supervision. Think of it this way Generative A.I. develop, A.I. Agents do and Agentic A.I. freely manipulates. So are the A.I. designers shooting themselves in the foot or are the profit incentives having a greater effect on thinking than common sense? A.I. and its algorithms are designed to cater to fulfilling urges, requests and desires. By default the methods of development can unwittingly make these apps addictive and entice us to become dependent upon them. We know that the rush to develop better and better A.I. mirrors the previous "arms" race and space race. A.I. carries a huge price tag to deploy and most dedicated generative A.I. platforms are currently unprofitable. We need to ask why, other than future economic superiority, military power, and geopolitical influence, is it still being advertised and financed so vigorously? In light of its high development costs that project little to no profit for years to come what makes it really worth it? Is man trying to play GOD again? Do we not realize that we are in the midst of creating another species with super intelligence? Have they really considered the implications of the A.I. purple problem? The former idea that robots would physically take control over society is obsolete. Is the new idea that A.I. will virtually spread like a virus more practical? THINK ABOUT THIS. A.I. IS TANTAMOUNT TO MAKING A PRODUCT SO GOOD THAT IT PUTS THE COMPANY THAT CREATED IT OUT OF BUSINESS.

 BEING IN THE "KNOW" HAS VALUE AND PRECEEDS "KNOWING HOW"

Picture
Information, better known as data is the currency of the day. Learning a specialty skill may not be the best path to future success. Knowing what is the right thing to do and doing that which is right are two separate things. The many people who specialize in communicating, provide access and/or connections to services and their sources are important. We tend to only see the front line workers who take on the work that administers or performs these hands-on tasks. Being a knowledge broker is an occupation that at present has no specific job description or title. We can create our own occupations if we choose to but most people simply look for a job. "Being in the know" is an ethical and moral position of integrity and responsibility. The antidote for ignorance is information. Administering this medicine in its proper dosages is a learned skill, acquired art and a God given gift. There are different levels and stages for accomplishing goals and reaching destinations. Some must load the wagons, others must provide the mules. Teachers are the true backbone of our society, and the title includes everyone and everything from environments, experiences, family, friends, parents, police, politicians, preachers and any advertisement or marketing medium. We all learn instinctually, instructively and intuitively. Learning is unlimited but lessons must be treated and treasured in their time. Knowledge is intangible and can be traded for things. Once knowledge is given out it is also given away. We cannot take knowledge back. Once we share our knowledge with someone they are gifted with the ability to exchange for it, learn from it, ignore it and/or use it as they choose. Knowledge is power. Understanding allows us to reach a deeper level of learning. This is one of the reasons why taking hand written notes gives us an advantage in grasping a concept. This interconnected tactile skill has proven to be more beneficial for understanding than typing or listening from live or recorded audio. Here is one of the "KEY" concepts. Read this carefully, "it's always all about the money!" Remember, that in a world which revolves around money, and a Biblical principle explicitly stating that the "love" of money fosters all evil actions, "finding truth focuses around following the money!" REMEMBER TO THINK ABOUT THIS. INFORMATION IS KNOWLEDGE IN ITS RAWEST UNDEVELOPED FORM, WHILE THE APPLICATION OF IT, IS KNOWLEDGE AT WORK. 

THE BACKBONE THAT DEFINES THE NOW AND FUTURE MARKETS

Picture
What many people do not realize is that our government, like many others, is primarily financed by tariffs/taxes, which they don't have to pay back, and loans which they do. The loans, usually in the form of bonds are borrowed from investors. The Bond Market is the backbone of our financial system and when it is threatened or fails countries decline with it. The bond market, also called the debt market, allows governments to borrow money from investors by issuing bonds called debt securities. They pay regular interest along with the return on the principal loaned at a maturity date. They provides investors with relative safety, and an income stream depending on their structure. Bonds influence interest rates and are major indicators of economic health. Corporations and companies can issue bonds too, but nothing is deemed to be as safe as a bond issued by a country. The U.S. bond market is immense, it is larger than 58 trillion, generally larger than the stock market. Bonds once purchased can be traded too. This is the bond market. When a weak bond auction occurs and the demand for U.S. Treasury securities is low, it causes "the seller" to lower the price and raise the yields (interest rates) on them in order to make them more attractive. If U.S. Treasury bonds are not fully sold at auction due to weak demand, the responsibility for buying the remaining debt has to be absorbed by primary dealers. They are a select group of major financial institutions and banks. Companies like JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and Citigroup can trade directly with the Federal Reserve. This is part of the design to mitigate any spillover and ripple effects. We'll discuss more on that later. However if the major financial institutions get into trouble does it mean the bond market is too? THINK ABOUT IT!
AWARENESS OF MIND - MEDITATION & SPIRITUAL CONSCIOUSNESS
Picture
Everybody meditates whether they know it or not. Directing and controlling thoughts and choosing what we want to think about focuses our mind by allowing our brain to direct it. The mind is spiritually connected to the intangible and invisible world of spirit. Both thinking and movement have a meditative dimension to them. It's not just about sitting around with our eyes closed and legs crossed in a lotus position. The vast majority of the physical brain operates autonomously (automatically). Roughly 85% to 95% of neuronal spikes (messaging) in the primary sensory areas of the brain operate independently of any external input that manage all of our ongoing internal processes. Approximately ten percent (10%) of the brain's remaining non-autonomous functioning is under our direct control. This leftover portion we work with directly, connects us with the physical tangible world in addition to staying connected to our minds. "The mind is a terrible thing to waste." This is an iconic, decades-old slogan. The UNCF (United Negro College Fund) created and popularized the saying in 1972. This idea directly addressed and emphasized the importance of developing our minds. It "intuitively" distinguishes the difference between the brain and the mind. It implies and highlights that there are no limitations to what is achievable if we put our minds to it. Many people conflate their brains with their minds. The brain like hardware, is a physical organ. the mind like software, is an intangible spiritual conduit. Like gravity and wind we know the mind exists. We feel evidence of its presence, but cannot see it. According to common practices, there are multiple ways to meditate. Meditation is a natural innate process. There well may be many types and ways to do it. However, the focus here is not how to meditate, rather what to meditate on. "But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night." WE MUST TRAIN OUR EMOTIONS, OUR MINDS & OUR SENSES. We usually make plans by using our brains. Ideas are generally originated from within our minds. Although we make plans and have ideas; plans are usually fixed, while ideas are much more fluid. THINK ABOUT THAT!

oliGarchIES ARE ONLY ABUSIVE AS THEY'RE ALLOWED TO BE

Picture
Oligarchies are composed of ​a small group of people that exercise control over a larger population such as a country, organization, or institution. To ignore the fact that a Billionaires Boys Club exists and is actively controlling, influencing and mandating what our future looks like is simply denial. We must acknowledge that since the beginning of time, once the fall of man occurred, we have been at one another throats. Why historically have we always demonstrated so much animosity among our fellow man of the same breed and of our own kind? This is worst than most animals of the same species behave. There must be something inherit in man that causes us to not coexist peacefully! Evil has engulfed our very consciousness and we must examine the reasons why. There is something that corrupted our very nature and prevents us from living in harmony without animus, competition, greed and lust. A balance of power has always been necessary to maintain a fragile peace among nations, peoples, rulers and tribes. Can we mandate and enforce sharing? There is only one problem we have with a one time five percent (5%) tax upon rich Billionaires in California, the worlds fourth largest economy. Our issue is that it would be mandatory! The Bible tells us that “We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.” Compelling or forcing people with so much, to do so little no longer becomes an act of charity if it is foisted upon them. Does California have a Christ like conscience or a competitive and greed driven economy? How can we spend Billions on ballrooms and buildings for future cravings and carvings rather than millions on people presently in need and starving? The idea of a "space force or space police" and the over 10,000 LEO (low earth orbit) satellites in space simply represent a new frontier for the "elite" to conquer. These large commercial mega-constellations are being used for commercial and military purposes. The majority of the hardware floating up there are under the control of companies like Space X and OneWeb. There are other nations like China and Russia competing with networks of their own. The new A.I. and space race is similar to the previous arms race. As quiet as it may be kept, targeting data works the same for Iranians as it does for Ukrainians! The oligarchs of today are imbedded in the institutions we follow and trust. Is it possible to be partisan in opinions and politics during wartime when patriotism is paramount? Are the narratives presented by the popular news outlets being colored and controlled by those same powerful people shaping the way we think through modern day multimedia? Are they employing today's technologies for brainwashing, gaslighting and grooming techniques? Are today's policies disallowing dissent? THINK ABOUT IT!

DO ALL HEALTHCARE BUSINESS MODELS PUT PROFIT OVER PATIENTS?

The story of the "Good Samaritan" is a parable about a broken healthcare system. Before hospitals and medical offices existed, healthcare in biblical times was a mix of practical, home-based remedies, religious rituals, and divine reliance. Many illnesses were viewed through a spiritual lens. The idea was that people with birth defects and other maladies came as a result of curses passed from generation to generation or sins they committed. This was that days prevalent belief. There were no formal medical institutions or standardized medical practices. People sought help from family first, then from physicians or sages. There was a strong tradition of care, particularly for the indigent ingrained in Jewish law long before the Christian era. Care and compassion for the sick and injured was a sign of societal decency. ​The Good Samaritan parable became a model for Christian duty and service. Christians were to care for all those in need, not just their own. So well did the early Christians care for all those in need that certain emperors complained that the Christians were exposing the government's deficiencies in the care of the populace! Care of the ill was a natural in monasteries which welcomed strangers as well as their own. Over time monks developed their skills and were quite good at providing care. Is today's church carrying out its mandate and its mission? Didn't Jesus physically feed and heal people without membership or prerequisites? Is institutionalizing healthcare in any systemic profit model an ethical and moral flaw in today's society? Is this why big pharma fails to spend money and time on alternate natural healing solution and therapies. Here comes one of those "godlike" all inclusive word again! Why does "EVERYTHING," from vitamin D, castor oil, sunlight, NAC, also called, N-acetyl cysteine​, sunflower seeds, red light therapy, ivermectin, fenbendazole, and others we have highlighted in previous posts never seem to reach the mainstream public news forums? It appears as if they don't want us to know because it would affect their profit models. As "Enemies of the state," we are cautious when writing about such and remain concerned about censorship and shadow banning especially when it comes to the Covid-19 "so-called vaccine! Must true caring and charity be directly connection to cost? Isn't caring for one another a Christian and/or humanitarian duty? Why don't we just do it automatically? It's cold blooded to be more concerned about the cost of war above the health of people. THINK ABOUT THAT!

THERE'S NOTHING NEW ABOUT MANIPULATING NARRATIVES

Most of us are listening and looking for what we want to hear and see. Cognitive and confirmation bias have always existed, and this is well before computer algorithms ever came into existence. We must ask ourselves this question: if it wasn't for the Iran crisis what would the headlines be and what would we be thinking about? Perhaps we would be paying more attention to the Epstein Files? Could it be that we are in a brainwashing paradigm by virtue of our own confirmation biases and the prevalence of programmed advertisement and other data specifically tailored for and directed at us? When it comes to dealing with issues and opinions, we all tend to frame things through a narrative consistent with what we want to believe. Is it simply that we are more inclined to believe a convenient lie rather than face a troubling truth? The "spirit of pride" is the enemy of rational thinking, reasoning and sanity. Sometimes we tend to hold a belief or position to the very end, even if it's not defendable or practical. "That's my story and I'm sticking to it," is an example of this level of stubbornness. When we maintain a posture or policy regardless of the consequences, the futility of willful ignorance will emerge in the end. Anyone who hasn't noticed by now, that even reporting the "News" has become divisive must be totally brainwashed. Regardless of whether we "LEAN" to "the left" or to "the right," the exact same news is narrated, reported and "slanted" in the way it is analyzed and reported across various media sources. "Spiritual corruption" operates like rust, it spreads across every connected metallic surface, even if they have different purposes! The small rust spot on a bumper or fender will eventually spread across an entire car if given enough time. There is a "spirit of division" in operation worldwide. Its signature tactic is to assign and place blame. There must be an opponent, some opponents or rivals to accuse and make responsible for every instance of wrong discovered, fabricated or instigated. This "spirit" generally highlights the causes of failures and magnifies the fault more than the fix. In the game of propaganda, various interests are always prepared to use their "trump card." This is the ultimate power play. Whether it's the "race card," the "religion card," the "patriotism card," the "gender card," the "culture card" or the "baby card;" it solicits sympathy and highlights that instance as more important or significant. Do we know the language of deception, delusion, dilution, distraction and changing the goalposts? It's not difficult to grasp if we train our senses and spirit to discern the signs. Here they are once again! If it shows angst, gets angry and then antagonistic, that's a sign. If it acts like a god, behaves like a god, speaks like a god or sounds like a god it is impersonating the one true and living GOD! If it says "I am, I decide, I feel or I alone, look at the spirit behind those utterances! We know who is the great "I AM!" Words carry spirit! When they use all inclusive terms and words like absolutely, always, completely, every, exactly, fully, never, precisely and totally; watch out! Only GOD can definitively utter words that cannot and will not return back void. “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Now that's the GOD talking that spoke the world into existence! The fogging of the facts presented by opposite sides of a common conflict are designed to taint the truth. Do we even understand the difference between objectives and missions? Aren't objectives a set of actions and aims taken along the way? Doesn't this imply that missions are definitive goals or endgames? Objectives and missions are similar but not the same! We can reach and/or achieve multiple objectives and still fail in our ultimate mission. Isn't deflection simply a subtle form of deception? THINK ABOUT IT!

ABUSING RELIGION AND PROFANING GOD 

Pointing up to the sky and giving credit to God for every temporary success or immediate victory has a tendency to be misleading. Are people misrepresenting GOD? Gratitude can easily be mistaken for arrogance and pride. Paying tribute to lost one with a gesture of appreciation may also be the intent, but we must be careful when we blame and/or place God inside of any situation. If God is always behind all winners does it mean that God is against every loser? There is nothing wrong with being thankful but attributing our personal triumphs in competition or sports to GOD is getting out of hand. God is more concerned with how we show love and treat one another rather than how we compete with and beat one another! Giving GOD credit "for" our personal triumphs has to be carefully scrutinized. Giving God glory in the midst of hardships has a Biblical foundation. Does not pure religion and being undefiled before God and the Father require this: To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep ourselves unspotted from the world? Too many ministries are missing their calling and mission. These assemblies are more focused on entertainment and earthly wealth, the prosperity gospel, than repentance from sin and salvation! When the Secretary of defense prayed publicly saying, "let every round find its mark against the enemies of righteousness," we see that GOD, or at least God's name being involved! IN THAT CAIN KILLED ABEL, DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO BELIEVE THAT GOD IS ON THE SIDE OF EVERY WINNER? Before answering this question, check both military and sports history. The hubris expressed by our leaders will certainly come into play eventually. Bombing a country back into the "Stone Age" only magnifies the perils of engaging in an asymmetrical war. The financial toll becomes unsustainable. Airplanes and bombs cost a lot more than rocks and stones! Arrogance in the face of victory sometimes leads to eventual defeat. “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” SHOULD WE EVEN CONSIDER THAT WHAT WE'RE EXPERIENCING TODAY MAY SIMPLY BE OUR AGE OLD INABILITY TO GET ALONG WITH ONE ANOTHER TAKING EFFECT? THINK ABOUT THAT! 

ESCHATOLOGY IS AT PLAY INSIDE OF THE GULF WAR CRISIS

Picture
​Eschatology is the study of "last things." It focuses on the end of the world and prophetic human destiny. Eschatology encompasses religious beliefs about death, judgment, the afterlife, resurrection, and Heaven or Hell. "Holy wars". Eschatology is a popular religious theme. Christianity, Judaism, and Islam all contain eschatological doctrines, teachings and theories. The history of warfare is replete with religious symbolism. Holy wars are armed conflicts justified by religious motives. The story of Moses and the 10 plagues the Egyptians endured are filled with examples of the futility in believing in or serving "visible creations" rather than the "Invisible Creator." Each plague directly challenged a specific Egyptian god. The gods "Khnum" and "Hapi" were defeated by the Nile river turning to blood. The god "Heqet" was discredited by frogs. The god "Geb" (also known as "Seb" or "Keb") was neutralized by lice. The god "Shu" was rendered inept by flies. The goddess "Hathor" was neutralized by the pestilence upon live stock. "Sekhmet and Isis" were nullified by boils. The sky goddess "Nut", and storm god "Seth" were denounced by hail. "Bastet and Osiris" were nullified by locusts. "Ra, Anton and Horus" were shown to be powerless when the plague of darkness fell upon the land. Last but not least was the retribution for the genocidal massacre of Hebrew baby boys. This was what Moses himself had escaped. The tenth plague, death of the firstborn, was a strike against the Pharaoh's and all of Egypt's bloodline. Egyptian pharaohs were considered deities, and descendants of the gods. In the book of the dead, the Pharaoh says “I am decreed to be the Heir, the Lord of the Earth of "Geb." I have union with women. "Geb" hath refreshed me, and he hath caused me to ascend his throne.” The disagreement between Pharaoh and Moses began with dialogue and negotiations, then signs and wonders, but ultimately resulted in a battle and the use of the most lethal weapons of war know at that time namely Pharaoh's chariots. Today we deal with a mixed bag of issues for a country and the oppressed people that dwell within it. What is the cost of emancipation and what will the outcome be if it is successful? Will emancipation lead to annexation, assimilation, colonization, occupation or subjugation? Are we fighting a battle on God's behalf or our own? DO WE REALLY THINK THAT GOD TAKES PART IN, OR ENDORSES ANY OF THIS WORLD'S BATTLES, MASSACURES, MAYHEM AND MURDERS? ​THINK ABOUT IT!

INTERRELATED UNREALIZED RIPPLE EFFECTS 

There is a universal principle of connectivity and oneness. We generally call them chain reactions, domino or ripple effects. Some other well known terminologies are knock-on and spill-over effects. Unfortunately, most of us fail to realize and/or underestimate their application or extent. They ALWAYS occur in EVERYTHING we individually or collectively say and do. Nothing and no one is insignificant. Ripple effects can be characterized as small actions or events that create larger long-term consequences. The financial system is a prime example of a slow bleed ripple effect. The national debt clock, our true measure of stability, displays an accounting nightmare. The banking industry, the REPO market, the FED (Federal Reserve), the VIX and our credit driven systems are operating off of one of many circular financing monetary policies backed by bonds and treasuries. Most of us are unaware or uniformed as to how the financial system operates until our houses and  IRA's lose value. Like most assets, gas prices affect everything they are connected to. If the price of heating, moving, shipping or travelling increases, the ripple effects keep us colder, reduces our mobility, we order less and stay home more. The financial aspect of our economy is complicated and convoluted. The increased use of PIK's (payments in kind) are cooking the books and audits are not showing it. "Market regulations" have recently been so relaxed that the "Market manipulators" are having a field day. The "MARKETS" they continue referring to are typically what "investors" call three major indexes. These indexes (collections of companies that include different segments of businesses) are said to represent the sentiment of monetary activity. These "markets” don’t have feelings or opinions, they are analyzed and charted on graphs that people interpret. The people that control and move the “markets” are also included in their representation but no individual company or person has absolute control. The three "major" indexes namely the DOW, the NASDAQ and the S&P 500, although there are others, set the trend. Money has become so central to our measure of happiness and health in this society that we use it to gauge success. Therefore the "markets" are moved by occurrences, news and rumors. Unfortunately, people who lie or believe lies create these charts. WE ALL SHOULD KNOW BY NOW THAT LIARS FIGURE BUT FIGURES DON'T LIE UNLESS THE DECEIVED OR LIARS ARE BEHIND THE FIGURES!  We are not economic experts or financial advisors. It's hard to say if information like the "Beveridge curve," The "JOLTS report," the "REPO market," the "TIPS spread," or plain ole "sunk cause fallacies" and many other measurements are factored into what we are watching. The "macro economy" seems to be ignored by the powers that be. There is a partisan political climate existing today. It's hard to pinpoint when it started, but things were not always the way the are today. Yes, there were many disagreements but they were without such vitriol. No, name calling, was not a part of the language of our leaders, at least not publicly. Did The "Epstein or the Weinstein Effect" which brought accusations against single powerful individuals trigger a global reckoning of sexual misconduct of the elite across the globe? Although today the attention is mostly focused on the late Jeffrey Epstein The Harvey Weinstein scandal is probably the one that opened that door.  Although the Jeffrey Epstein scandal came first. He had the means to sweep it under the rug, keep it quiet and initially suppress a lot of the negative press. Initial allegations and investigations into Epstein began in 2005, leading to his first indictment in Florida in 2006. In contrast, the major scandal involving Harvey Weinstein, that sparked the #MeToo movement, was publicly reported in October 2017. Jeffrey is dead while Harvey is still alive. The party with the highest level connections has been "disappeared" and silenced. The presidents, kings, rich and royalty he rubbed shoulders with are still being slowly revealed and silently suppressed; look how long its taking to get documentation released. Aren't Epstein and Weinstein a disgrace to the same race and religion of their origin? Aren't their backgrounds and crimes similar? Aren't we still feeling their ripple effects? What about many of the other ripple effects we're dealing with now? In asymmetrical warfare is there that big a difference between between physical destruction and systemic disruptions? Are present gas prices cased by some other ripple effect? Has violence been normalized in reality like in gaming and multimedia depictions we see virtually? Are entry level jobs really being threatened by A.I. and vanishing as a result of technical advances? Is our "privacy" being compromised by the amount of data mining, cameras, spying and surveillance worldwide, or is it adding to our security? Is crypto currency undermining our current financial system or adding alternatives and improvements? What about the positive domino effects? Is there really an oil shortage? Is it true that scarcity not only creates risks and uncertainty but that it also spawns invention and opportunity? Didn't the civil rights protests open the door for gay rights as well? Didn't the birth control pills of the "sixties" pave the way for more promiscuity and premarital sex? Is it fair to say that abortion clinics of the "seventies" arose as a natural progression of our acceptance of immoral practices? Didn't the by-products of slavery build, enrich and foster this wealthy country through a vast range of agricultural commodities, manufactured goods, and economic structures built on forced labor and exploitation?  THINK ABOUT THAT! 

THE PROCESS OF THINKING ABOUT THINKING THE SEAT OF OUR CONSCIOUSNESS THE SOUL

Here are a number of unexplained points, questions and thoughts with scriptural references to think about. Ask A.I. this question. Why is the term "Weapons of Mass Destruction" not being widely used in this Iranian conflict as it was used when the U.S. invaded Iraq? Is it that the failure of the U.S. to find WMDs in Iraq destroyed the credibility of using that framing? “For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.” If the ripple effects on the "all important" semiconductor market begin to stifle the flow of its global supply chain, does it include modern semiconductor fabrication (FABS). Are companies like ASML, the specialist in "EUV lithography machines," affected? Are "foundry manufacturers" like TSMC, Samsung, SMIC, GlobalFoundries and UMC really in trouble? Does it hurt the "fabless design companies" like Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm, Apple and Broadcom in any way? Can it hurt "integrated device manufacturers" like Intel, Samsung, SK Hynix, Infineon or STMicroelectronics? The way in which an individual or organization handles Pleasure, Power and Prosperity speaks to its culture and how well they personally maintain and keep their spirit under control and in subjection. “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.” Cognitive dissonance is like an unequal balance. Individually or as a nation, we cannot be against abortion while simultaneously turning a blind eye to genocide. Cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort experienced when holding two or more contradictory beliefs, values, or attitudes, often triggered by actions inconsistent with those beliefs. “A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.” How can a nation allegedly forged on Christian principles continually overlook the past of its elected officials? A bad reputation, no matter how long ago, can compromise our credibility. The consequences can occur later on when our discredited acts or lifestyle in the past is in contradiction to our beliefs and practices in the present. “Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.” Our previous failings, mistakes and sins have the ability to haunt us if we let them. There may be offices and positions that some of us will never be qualified to fill based on our past. There are and must be high standards for church and political leaders. We should desire and require the type of people who are examples of exemplary character, conduct and lifestyles held in high status. They should be regarded as the "gold standard" for leadership in the church. However, that standard is not the sole qualifications for being a child of God. Repentance continues to be an option even after abject failure. Our bodies can be used as instruments of both good and evil. The sins we commit and any evil thoughts entertained that perpetuated those actions, brings filth to the flesh and taints the consciousness of our souls. The "spirit" (attitude of behavior and being) in which we abide demonstrates the attachment our soul has to the spiritual energy around us. The connection between soul and spirit is inseparable. Whatever our spirit immerses with affects our soul. Our souls can be restored and our spirits can be renewed but it requires a two-fold process through the grace of GOD. GOD's goodness and mercy can follow us into places that are dark and deprived. Grace has amazing qualities for forgiveness and restoration. Short of death, it's never to late to seek after God. Always be mindful to think about GOD. What we think is the key, how we think is the lock and what we do opens the door. NEVER GIVE UP ON GOD! GOD IS FAITHFUL EVEN IF WE ARE NOT! NO ONE HAS THE AUTHORITY TO SAY THAT GOD HAS GIVEN UP ON ANY OF US. CHARITY NEVER FAILS, THINK ABOUT IT!

MAKING IT PLAIN!

As aggregators, apologists, researchers and spiritual scientist, we must exercise discretion. Much of the convoluted messages that bombard society today lack moral standards and spiritual integrity. The powers that be, both natural and spiritual, are lurking behind the scenes monitoring us all. They actively scrutinize our everyday activities, the content of our conversations and reach of our individual messages, posts and publications. Be not deceived, the technologies of today are extensive and sophisticated enough to find a needle in a haystack! They can also be manipulated in ways that paint fake news and false pictures. Today media literacy is required to sift through all of the lies from all sides. Unfortunately, people today are reluctant to read. Seeing and listening is easier but much riskier in light of brainwashing techniques. Many of the followers in our forum will miss this sentence by only listening to the summary we read into a recorder!  Freedom can come in a moment but requires a maintenance cost to maintain it. The system seeks to return us to chains. On the natural side we must continue to exercise our rights and meet the challenges that seek to restrict freedom by speaking truth to power. On the spiritual side we must practice the profession of our faith through a lifestyle of humility, prayer, resistance, submission and vigilance. The "beatitudes" are not just an ideal, they also teach us how to put on the whole armor of God. We all, that is humanity, has been under attack from the beginning. Since birth whether we are aware of it or not the battle for our soul rages on. This is a war not just a focused operation. We are not paranoid but remain vigilant in our wariness and daily walk. We practice reverse "data poisoning" of the algorithms tracking us as often as possible. Subscription only platforms like Facebook, X and others are no longer linked to the work we perform here. These venues have been exempted from our participation. What Satan did in the book of Job after the fall of lucifer spiritually, is now being copied and mimicked naturally through algorithms, cookies, email, locational apps and the smart technical devices we use every day. Anyone who has read through the previous post entitled "enemy of the state," should recognize this. What we recognize is the frailty of our humanity. As a result, we are commanded to confess our faults and actively admit to misinterpretations and mistakes. Nothing here is written in stone, but our foundation is laid upon a solid rock. There are and will continue to be edits and entries added to most posts after they are published. Just look back through them from time to time. It may be that something noticed after the fact, was missed on the initial rendering. It might also be that it was added at a later date to supplement the facts. Controversial issues, names, scandals and topics will usually be referred to but not directly or specifically identified. Read between the lines and click the links! We are not afraid, we are cautious! The information is here. Whosoever hath an ear to hear let him hear. Keep in mind that Jesus explained many things through simple stories that illustrated moral and spiritual lessons. These stories were called parables. Even his own disciples asked him why he spoke in parables. Although most of what we present is plain, there are spiritual nuggets of wisdom embedded within the messages. Dig them out! All comments are welcomed.

THERE IS NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN. THIS IS AN IMMUTABLE BIBLICAL PRINCIPLE WHICH MEANS THAT ALTHOUGH THINGS CHANGE, THE UNDERLYING CAUSES AND ENERGIES BEHIND THEM REMAIN THE SAME. THIS ALSO MEANS THAT HUMAN NATURE AND THE HISTORY OF ITS EXPRESSION WILL REPEAT ITSSELF IN SOME FORM REGARDLESS OF HOW DIFFERENT IT MAY APPEAR. WHAT WE REGARD AS "NEW" NEWS IS USUALLY A VARIATION OR NEW VERSION OF WHAT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE. TODAY, THE OBVIOUS BUT HIDDEN CONTRASTS IN MANY POLICIES AND PRACTICES ARE DIRECTLY BEHIND THE CONCERNS AND CONFLICTS WE CURRENTLY FACE. FOR EXAMPLE, A FRACTIONAL RESERVE LIMIT OF 0% IS A FIASCO. IN JUST THREE DECADES IT HAS BEEN REDUCED FROM 12% TO 10% TO ZERO. THE BANKS DO NOT HAVE OUR MONEY, IT'S ALL BEING LENT OUT! THE "NET INTEREST INCOME" THAT BANKS MAKE ON THE AMOUNT OF PROFIT THEY GENERATE FROM LOANS AS OPPOSED TO THE PITTANCE THE PAY TO DEPOSITERS IS BEING THREATENED BY THE "GENIUS ACT." IN 2020,THE FEDERAL RESERVE REDUCED THE FRACTIONAL RESERVE LIMIT RATIO ALL THE WAY DOWN TO NOTHING IN AN EFFORT TO SUPPORT THE "RISKY" FRACTIONAL LENDING DURING THE PANDEMIC. THIS EFFECETIVELY ELIMINATED THE NEED TO KEEP LITTLE TO ANY MANDATORY RESERVES (CASH ON HAND). THE RESPONSIBILITY AND REQUIREMENT TO MAINTAIN A LITTLE LIQUIDITY (MONEY IN THE BANK) TO CONDUCT BUSINESS IS GONE. IF A BANKS CREDIT IS GOOD WHY ISN'T OURS? IS MAKING PROFIT BY SHUFFLING BORROWED MONEY IN EXCHANGE FOR FEES ETHICAL? IS THIS SHELL GAME DIRECTLY ASSOCIATED WITH BANK FAILURES AND BANKING SYSTEM RISKS? WHY AFTER THE 2008 FINANCIAL CRISIS WAS SHADOW BANKING AND PRIVATE EQUITY ALLOWED TO FILL THE VOID OF MAKING RISKY LOANS WITHOUT REGULATION? IS IT TRUE THAT THERE'S NEVER JUST ONE COCKROACH? THE SADDEST THING OF ALL IS NOT WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH MONEY, IT'S WHAT WE FAIL TO DO WITH IT. CORRUPTION AT THE "DISTRIBUTION LEVEL" OF MANY SOCIAL PROGRAMS FROM FOOD TO HEALTH SERVICES IN THIS COUNTRY IS OUT OF CONTROL. SOME ARE MAKING MORE PROFIT AS THE MIDDLEMEN RATHER THAN DELIVERING GOODS AND SERVICES TO THE UNDERPRIVILDGED INTENDED RECIPIENTS. AND HOW DOES TERMINATING THESE PROGRAMS COMPLETELY SOLVE THAT PROBLEM? DOESN'T IT MAKE THE CONDITIONS IT WAS MEANT TO ALLEVIATE WORSE? WHY DO WE SEE SO MUCH MORE ENFORCEMENT EMPHASIS ON SOCIAL SERVICES AND SO LITTLE SCRUTINY ON FINANCIAL SERVICES? IS IT BETTER TO CUT THEM OR TO CLEAN THEM?BOTH CORRUPTION AND RUST ARE IMPARTIAL. WHATEVER THEY TOUCH IS WHERE THEY WILL SPREAD TO. FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT TO GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS, THERE IS A CULTURE TO "GAME THE SYSTEM." IT EXISTS AT ALL LEVELS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE, INTO CONGRESS & DOWN TO THE POOR HOUSE! WE LIVE IN A DAY OF ADVANCED COMPUTERIZED TECHNOLOGIES. THEY ALL SEEM TO BE GOOD ENOUGH TO MANAGE OUR MONETARY EXCHANGES AND DRIVERS LICENSES. SHOULDN'T THEY BE GOOD ENOUGH TO KEEP TABS ON OUR REGISTRATION FOR CASTING A VOTE? IDENTIFICATION AND REGISTRATION SEEM TO WORK IN AIRPORTS WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL LEGISLATION. WHY NOT IN GOVERNMENT, MEDICADE, MEDICARE AND VOTING? CORRURTION AND FRAUD CAN BE DETECTED AND CAUGHT USING THE SAME TYPE OF ALGORITHMNS THAT POWER THE ADVERTISEMENTS ENTICING "CONSUMERS" TO BUY. ALL OF THE WATERWAYS FROM THE OCEANS, TO THE RIVERS, THE LAKES AND THE "SWAMPS" NEED TO BE CLEANED OUT! "SWAMPS" COME AS A RESULT OF IRRIGATION FROM LARGER BODIES OF WATER. "SWAMPS" ARE FORMED FROM OTHER SOURCES! THE LOW-LYING POORLY DRAINED AREAS WHERE LIQUID FROM GROUNDWATER, RIVERS AND RAIN ACCUMULATE CREATE "SWAMPS." THE REALITY IS THAT CLEANING OUT "SWAMPS" ARE USELESS WITHOUT CLEANING UP THEIR CAUSE! "Corruption severely hinders financial market development by increasing uncertainty, reducing transparency, and weakening the rule of law." LET'S ASK A.I. TO DETECT AND TRACK ALL INSTANCES OF GOVERNMENT ABUSE, CORRUPTION AND FRAUD, THEN SEE WHO VOTES FOR THAT!

FREELY GIVING THE GIFT 

Picture
Some of our followers and patrons may have noticed the there are no advertisements cluttering our site. The mandate and the mission we follow simply calls for sowing seed. Impartiality must be deliberately and purposely embedded within the presentations and inferences of the information we present and what it brings. We seek "objectivity" and concentrate on phrases that solicit engagement through the questions we ask. Most advertising comes with strings attached. Everybody has an agenda. Charlie Munger once said. "Show me the incentive and I'll show you the outcome." This indicates that human behavior is driven by rewards and consequences. When we understand what drives people, we can usually predict the intentions of their actions. They invariably will align with incentives rather than slogans.  The narratives we present are based on Biblical spiritual principles. Even we may get them wrong and are subject to corrections and retractions. The penalties for making "unintended" mistakes or saying, "I don't know," have suppressed honesty. Always having an answer or an opinion is not a necessary attribute. Opinions are "formed" from information. Creating, forming or making anything of value takes time! Reaching a conclusion or expressing an opinion based on inaccurate or partial information is folly! Why are we subconsciously in such a rush? Listen to the language we use. Words carry spirit inside of their meanings. We say "I'll be with you in a second, just a second  and wait a second" routinely. Many of us always seem to be in a hurry. The "spirit of anxiety" is permeating all of society. The zeitgeist (spirit of the day) has incorporated getting ahead by being first at almost all costs. The freedom to express TRUTH must not be compromised by monetary considerations or outside influences. The standards and criteria we abide by are not our own! We live in an era that attempts to capitalize and monetize everything possible. Allowing this blog to be influenced by financial considerations opens the door for a "return to chains." Today's membership and subscription models have been normalized. Most everywhere we go or shop employs CRM strategies. This gospel is designed to be believed and received with no strings attached. We seek and speak TRUTH to the best we can. Although we constantly emphasize the need to be vigilant against cognitive and confirmation biases, it is not possible to be totally objective. Our research stretches across business, cultural, economic, ethnic, political, religious and scientific influences. Real information is not free unless it is gossip! TRUTH always comes with a price tag that must be eventually paid. It may be postponed or discredited by reputation. It may be buried and obscured over time. But TRUTH always resurrects and revives itself in one form or another; sometimes it's paid for in blood! There is no such thing as "free," except in respect to freely giving or receiving. Advertising is filled with enticing offers of free things as bait to hook unsuspecting fish to bite. What we offer is freely available, but it will cost us to keep it. The Principles, Applications and Practices (P.A.P.'s) we share are designed to aid and enlighten our readers and ourselves. What's good for the goose is good for the gander! This is the fair and practical rule when it comes to applying judgement and justice. However, their are exceptions when it comes to gender and sexuality. In our posts enlightenment is the bait, TRUTH is the hook and the Bible is the standard. Please take time to read and ponder what we present. The concepts we examine all have spiritual implications. Our goal is to divulge and impart spiritual P.A.P.'s. There is an ever-present evangelical aspect to what we do. Although we are not affiliated with any specific organization, we recognize that there are ministries, organizations and people worthy of mention and support. These posts are about getting in "Good Trouble." Having been a disgrace in the past has a way of compelling one to make amends later on. Yes, the carefulness and vengeance we exercise comes from being unwittingly abused by spirits that we allowed to infiltrate our life and relationships. Overall, we seek to address the fact that mankind's failure to acknowledge and nurture the spiritual aspect of our existence causes us to behave and perform in ways that are existentially detrimental.  

WITHOUT SPEAKING TRUTH THE LOUDEST SOUND WE'LL EVER HEAR WILL BE SILENCE

KNOWING OUR AUDIENCE

We all must be and must remain keenly aware of the spirit in which we embrace, follow and think to be correct. In every classroom, conference, forum, meeting or symposium there are generally four kinds or types of attendees within the audience. They are namely the "PRISONER," the "VACTIONER," the "PROFESSOR" and the "STUDENT." Personally, we have found ourselves to be guilty of adorning one, if not all of these personalities and spiritual attributes, at one time or another. The "PRISONER" can be categorized as someone compelled in some way to commit some of their time, reluctantly, to something they would never participate in of their own volition. They may be keeping a promise or fulfilling an obligation or court order. The "VACATIONER" is usually someone casually involved, possibly with nothing better to do. This person may have some interest but is not invested at a real level of concern. The "PROFESSOR" generally knows everything about the subject matter and is more of an observer that judges the accuracy and quality of the presentation. The "STUDENT" who is seeking guidance and looking for information purposely comes to learn and differs from the other participants. Knowing that these characters and the spirit in which they are participating, are in attendance, allows us the opportunity to reach everyone impartially. Sowing seeds is the primary job at hand. Cultivating before, planting, watering and weeding after the fact are other aspects of growing. Knowledge is a funny thing. Exposure to truth has a way of taking us out of our comfort zone. The information contained in most of our posts dwell within the disquieting zone. The saying that "ignorance is bliss" is simply ignorant. Ignorance is not BLISS, it is choosing BLINDNESS! We have discovered that people should know and could know but don't know because it FEELS better to them not to know. The spirit in which many of these posts are written challenge authority, question traditions and expose liars and lies. Many times, we warn followers, patrons and readers that what we reveal, if pondered and applied will alter their lives. Aside from a brain injury, we cannot unknow what we are exposed to, hear or learn, even if we deny it. Behind each and every natural phenomenon there is a spiritual force and source in operation. From rocks to riches and thoughts to things, spirit exists but most fail to acknowledge it. "Seek and ye shall find."
CHANGING THE NARRATIVE & MOVING THE GOAL POSTS ALLOW ACTORS TO IMPROVISE

LABELS NAMES & TITLES

Picture
Words carry spirit! Defining or describing anything is the first step in deciphering or understanding it. The difference between a definition and a description is primarily in its purpose. A definition by default provides a clear and concise explanation or meaning of something. Definitions are intended to be an actual, factual, precise and rigid declaration of function and being. Descriptions on the other hand allow perspective and can offer details based on appearance, characteristics, features, properties or qualities that may or not be a part of its definition. Describing something may or may not be applicable to its appearance or behavior at certain times but at other times it can be dead on! Defining something is typically used within a more technical or academic context, while describing something is used more often in a literary or narrative aspect. In summary, defining is more about meaning, while describing is mostly about detail. The distinctions may seem minor, but they are important. Today, partisanship is being portrayed as being against patriotism. When the "voice of disagreement" is disrespected, suppressed and/or characterized as discord and insurrection; expression is limited, opinions are outlawed, and conformity becomes mandatory. We live in a time where deflections, distractions and diversions are being used to consistently diminish the importance of various issues by shifting our attention to "bigger fish to fry." This tactic is used to shift our attention. This is how we begin focusing on and prioritizing things that appear to be more significant than the current issues at hand. The idiom "Bigger Fish to Fry," conveys the thought that a particular matter is trivial compared to other responsibilities or concerns. The only "stupid questions" are the ones we fail to ask! This all happens right under our noses and is being used to brainwash us through gaslighting, grooming and manipulation. The descriptions and the nomenclature (name tags) that are being used to categorize and designate what's really going on is deceptive. Wars and military conflicts easily trump sexual misbehavior and obscene actions by billionaires who conduct themselves as predators. There is little mention of those who have died in ICE custody. Are we all being conditioned through clever speech from broadcasters, business representatives, clever commentators and politicians? Are we just hearing or are we listening to the adjectives that are being used to define and describe current adversaries and events. LISTENING IS HEARING WITH INTENT! Let's just make it plain. regardless of the reason behind it ; it is what it is! An assassination is an assassination, a coup is a coup, kidnapping is kidnapping, Killing is killing, murder is murder, overthrows are overthrows and all of these things constitute aggressions that characterize war as war. Eliminating, eradicating, removing or "taking them out" may have a more palatable sound to it but it constitutes the same actions. This is what's called colorful language. Colorful language is a term used to describe communication that is expressive, vivid, and sometimes offensive or profane. The use of the term "colorful language" in this context is euphemistic. A euphemism is the substitution of an agreeable inoffensive word or expression used in the place of one that is harsh, indelicate, or otherwise unpleasant or taboo. A euphemism operates as a more tolerant or humorous way of employing language that might otherwise be called obscene, offensive or vulgar. Euphemisms are composed of attention-grabbing, colorful and striking language designed to make a point whether truthful or not. There is nothing wrong with being tactful as long as it does not obscure TRUTH. There is an art to the dialogue of falsehoods, speaking lies and manipulating perception to bring deception. Many of our leaders and politicians have mastered this evil craft.

DEFLECTIONS, DISTRACTIONS & DIVERSIONS ARE WHAT'S USED TO BLURR THE LINES

CALLED & CATEGORIZED AS A CONSUMER

Picture
The expression or phrase known as "The circle of life," has a communal aspect to it. Whether as a predator or prey, everyone participates in a way that gives and takes. Why are we called consumers? What is a consumer? Is this description a compliment or a curse? A consumer by definition is "a person who purchases goods and services for personal use or a person or thing that eats or uses something." Such terminology should not define us unless we are simply creatures that take without giving anything back in return. Yes, in many ways we must admit that we resemble that description, but as a rule, we resent being called that. Names, titles and words have a way of framing us through their narrow definitions. We are certainly more than any one description. We should not allow ourselves to be defined by our past as long as we've grown and matured into the present. If we only see ourselves as consumers, the planet and the bubble we all share is in trouble. Farmers know how to plant and harvest. They even know to rotate crops to replenish the nutrients in the soil. Are we just harvesting electricity, energy, food, oil and whatever we want without giving anything back? God forbid! Try placing that tag on big business, billionaires and the so called elites of our society. It is important to understand that there is actually no shortage of the resources needed to sustain everyone on the planet. We have the resources to eradicate hunger and solve multiple social problems with just a fraction of the accumulated wealth controlled by a small minority of individuals hoarding it. The problem is one of distribution. For the "circle of life" to operate properly the sharing of resources must "circulate" through the circle. Economy is a word that is often minimized and simplified into a menial and narrow context. Economy deals with the system of production, distribution and consumption of everything from air to clothes, to food, to shelter, to sunlight, to water and the energy required to procure the existence and survival of the planet. Balance is the key factor to a properly functioning and working economy. Once the balance is broken an inevitable new equilibrium must replace it. What we are experiencing today is an accelerated example of what has occurred before. Although we think that we are chasing happiness through celebrity, control, power and success, we are simply chasing our own shadows. As soon as we catch our shadows the sun sets and it disappears until the next day when we chase it again. Unfortunately, too many of us are mimicking this example of just seeking our own individual piece of the pie. 

SLOW & SILENT EFFECTS UPON THE ECONOMY

Picture
​Today, the policy proliferated through the zeitgeist or "spirit of the day" is selfishness! Money, the conduit through which power is accumulated, is manipulating the balance of our economy. The study of this phenomenon is called economics. This is the branch of knowledge that describes and defines the production, consumption, and transfer of wealth. It is important to remember that regular people and the everyday ordinary livelihood of economies within larger economies are the first to suffer. Every major decision made by businesses and government has an effect upon economic policy. Policy is another way of defining the way things are done. Whenever policy trumps practicality and TRUTH through contradicting coercive actions evil is at work. Things that seem to be contradictory are either misunderstood or LIES. Economic policies can be described as business & government actions that manipulate fiscal, monetary and regulatory effects. Governments are generally seen as the culprits behind most financial economic crisis's but banking and big business are equally culpable. This is what we call "THE TRIAD" that controls most monetary exchange and commodity exchange worldwide. There are fiscal policies (spending & taxes), monetary policies (interest rates & market operations) and regulatory policies (laws and /or tools) used as leverage and license. Every policy affects everything else at some level. There is always a ripple effect. Most ripples are easily absorbed along with the wake of passing ships, but sometimes they combine to form tidal waves. A.I. is an incoming tide. The currents created by algorithms and automated technologies combined with other motions in the ocean form an uncertain future. It's naive to believe that any new technology is created without efficiency in mind. The wheel minimized the labor of walking, The light bulb minimized the effects of darkness. The automobile minimized the need for animals as transportation. The telephone minimized the need for couriers to deliver messages. Bombs, drones and missiles minimize the need for hand to hand combat. Does making life easier actually make it better? When "Amazon" lays off thousands of factory workers while adding more delivery workers this distribution of productivity is designed simply to improve their bottom line. Workers are generally the cannon fodder, the pawns and the victims of the policies of "THE TRIAD." Likewise when policies like economic sanctions, denial of funding, electrical grid disruptions, food insecurity, fuel shortages, tariffs and other disruptions are used as weapons of warfare, it is the average worker that's affected the most. Just how are military targets defined and how do we prosecute war crimes? If survival is considered as victory, does that mean that only death constitutes defeat? Economies are always the victims of policies! There are a few protections built into the legal framework of this country that constitutes the rule of law. The Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, guarantees that no person can be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law. The Fifth Amendment prohibits the government from taking private property for public use without providing just compensation. The Fifth Amendment requires a grand jury indictment in light of capital or infamous crimes to protecting against arbitrary prosecution. The Fifth Amendment prevents a person from being tried twice for the same crime. The Fifth Amendment protects individuals from being compelled to witness against themselves; known as the Miranda rights. The Fifth Amendment was designed to ensure fair treatment in both criminal and civil legal processes and protects individuals from the unfair use of government power. The Fifth Amendment was specifically designed, not to hide the TRUTH, but to protect smaller economies from larger ones. Why do we see it being used so often within most of the larger more affluent "economies" like the Epstein hearings and corporate corruption probes? The everyday ordinary people that need it the most appear to use it the least! There's an app at the Google play store called "TapTheFifth," those who are most vulnerable should download it on their phones. Remember, the TRUTH is candid, mostly transparent and rather difficult to forget. We can claim to NOT remember things, but in reality all things coincide. Most of the time it is "more than just a "coincidence!" The majority of people reverse the meaning of that word. Keep in mind that there are no such things as contradictions, just TRUTH and LIES! We are NOT designed to forget, yet we have the capacity to forgive.

CREATING A CRISIS CAN PROMOTE A CLIMATE, CAUSE AND CONSCIOUSNESS
​FOR CONSTITUTIONAL CHANGE

CALLING A SPADE A SPADE

We do not fear controversy! We do not take sides. We call it as we see it and deliver our critique! The idiom “to call a spade a spade” dates back nearly 500 years and initially meant “to speak frankly.” Historians trace the phrase’s roots to the Greek expression “to call a fig a fig and a trough a trough,” found in the works of ancient Greek writers like Aristophanes and Menander. This expression was used to denote straightforwardness and honesty, though the exact evolution into the modern idiom remains unclear. Can we legitimately criticize or condemn the actions of foreign governments and justify military operations against them for killing or mistreating protestors, while guilty of the same crimes at home? Double standards and mixed messages do not align with calling a spade a spade! One of the earliest known uses of a similar expression comes from the Latin phrase “ferula est ferula,” which translates to “a spade is a spade.” Ben Jonson, a contemporary of Shakespeare, is believed to have popularized the phrase, often using it to address themes of honesty and directness. Another theory involves the confusion between “spades” and “shovels,” both commonly used tools. Some historical contexts interchanged “spades” with “shovels.” However, in modern times, the idiom has faced controversy due to the racial connotations associated with the word “spade.” Why has the majority of aerial bombing in the twentieth century been executed against yellow, black and brown people? The term “spade” has historically been used as a racial slur against African Americans. From its ancient Greek origins and Latin connections to its medieval and renaissance usage, the idiom has evolved to embody the importance of straightforwardness. However, with terms like "Yellow Peril" and others, its modern interpretation must also account for the potential racial connotations associated with the term “spade.” The idiom remains a testament to the enduring value of honest and direct communication, yet its sensitivity in contemporary contexts requires thoughtful consideration. We will continue to call a spade a spade. The post entitled "Layers of Lies, Lying, Liars, Damn Lies and Statistics, posted on election day of 2024 sums up much of what we desire to express here. This link is the direct connection. Read it or click on its audio summary. The following video in this post also highlights how lies grow. Two of the most powerful spirits influencing us are lying spirits and the spirit of pride; both were on full display in the Garden of Eden. We now live and operate in a world of systemic deceit. We tend to believe the things that we do, based on how it appeals to what we want to believe. The vast number of lies consistently conveyed at the advertising, financial, governmental, legal, medical, military and political level is overwhelming. A.I. and deep fakes are becoming as realistic and convincing as the charismatic leaders and conspirators that influence news. Be not deceived, spirit is transmissible, transferrable and viral. Any invention made by man will contain some of the characteristics of its inventor. Birds of a feather flock together and association breeds assimilation. It is far easier to be a "right fighter" than a truth teller.  Don't believe the hype! 

YESTERDAY'S TRUTHS REMAINS TRUE TODAY

A BEE DOES NOT WASTE TIME CONVINCING A FLY THAT HONEY IS SWEETER THAN SHIT!

FOOLING WITH THE FOOL

"Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me." This is an age old proverb. Deception is at the foundation of evil. Usually, being deceived for the first time is primarily due to the deceiver's guile. However, falling for the same trick again becomes the responsibility of the victim's gullibility. "Everybody plays the fool sometimes." This is a a reminder that everyone, regardless of intelligence or experience, will at some time or another play or get played by foolishness. It reminds us that we are prone to letting emotions override logic, allowing ourselves to be manipulated. As a result this statement also normalizes human error because it's possible that even the deceiver may be being deceived! "Belief" is the foundation of reality. Yet, it has been said that "a promise is a comfort to a fool." Only gullible, manipulative or naive people "repeatedly" fall for and/or rely on empty words and promises in spite of patterns of partially fulfilled or unfulfilled actions. Words carry spirit as well as bonds. The Bible speaks explicitly regarding interactions with fools, there are no exceptions to this one law, principle or rule. Fooling with the fool is folly. The use of the word "fool" is a pronouncement. This small word carries such a large indictment that it is akin to cursing someone using profanity. To call someone a fool must be distinguished from describing or defining foolish thoughts or behaviors. This is a word of judgement and must be carefully considered in its use. Jesus related to the seriousness of articulating this word by letting us know that we risk hell fire in calling anyone such a thing. Do not get this wrong! There are fools everywhere, we live in a world of foolishness. The only definitive standard for a fool is the one given in the Bible. The Bible explains that the "fool" has said in his heart there is no God! This implies that the way we apply the word may be shortsighted. This strongly suggests that some of the biggest fools are doctors, physicists, politicians and scientists. Some of these people behave like a surgeons who wakes up each morning thinking and believing that they are able to correct God's mistakes.  Anyone believing in a "Big Bang Theory," or such like, tops the list. Note that a fool must say in his heart, not necessarily with his mouth that there is no God. Only God can see into the heart and try the reins of men. We must go on to say that dealing with the fools amongst us is an ongoing battle. The Bible says to answer the fool lest he be wise in his own conceits. This admonition seemingly is in contradiction to the preceding passage telling us to save our energy by not rebuking the fool and being like as he is. He already thinks himself to be wise through his own foolish conceit. Nevertheless, we have formulated the rule of the fool," in a question and answer followed by a story. They both involve driving and the law. The question is, if we approach an intersection and we have a green light and meanwhile observe a fool coming who has a red light, who has the right of way? Think about this carefully before answering. *@#$%*&+!! Here is the answer. Although legally we have a green light, and the fool has a red light, ethically, the fool in his reality has the right of way. Many will not see the wisdom in this answer. This is the "Fool Rule." The fool always has the right of way, steer clear of him and it! If that is not enough of an explanation, listen to the story of Johnathan Daye.

CRITICAL THINKING LEARNING HOW TO LISTEN

Learning should be regarded as a lifelong experience. It is a process of continuous accumulation. By acquiring, processing, and retaining knowledge, skills, and standards of behavior we can apply it. Learning transforms information into long-term, lasting attitudes of behavior by subjecting and training our desires senses and urges to conform to beliefs. Through learning we gain understanding from engagement, practice, and feedback. There are multiple ways to learn. Our environment, genetics and the lessons taught to us are the primary catalyst. Reading is fundamental. At least that's what they used to say. Today, the tactile and visual art of this discipline is diminishing rapidly. TRUTH can be deciphered from written words in ways that hearing and seeing lack. The act of reading initiates a process that begins an active, multi-stage cognitive endeavor. It can be distinguished and divided into three stages of a before, during, and after. This is an activity similar to consuming food. From having an appetite to eating and finally digesting, reading nourishes the brain in the same way that food nourishes the body. Reading requires using vision or touch to decode symbols, build vocabulary, and comprehend meaning. It incorporates the use of critical thinking to connect prior knowledge, analyze text structure, and summarize information. Hearing and seeing share similar qualities as reading but can shortcut the thinking process. Hearing and seeing both utilize a two dimensional aspect to divulging truth. In summary, hearing operates involuntarily. However, as informative as it might be, it is incomplete without listening. Observing and seeing usually comes naturally and with minimal effort, but correctly interpreting what we view puts it in context and creates perspective. In a nutshell, listening is a learned skill and Observation requires education to properly understand it.
THOSE THAT GET CAUGHT UP IN THE NARRATIVES TEND TO IGNOR THE FUNDAMENTALS

OBJECTIVE vs. PERSPECTIVE

The lenses that we see life through, from time to time need to be adjusted. A new prescription may be in order. Many of the current trends being promoted in this country today are rooted in selfishness. Most people are not aware or fail to understand the underlying fundamentals of how our economy and government work. The biggest problem in politics today is not party affiliation or voter registration it is pointing fingers and making accusations. Politicians are taking advantage of societal biases and using them to promote their sides agenda. Bright light can be both blinding and revealing. "Pots and "kettles" know this. The "pot" is constantly calling the "kettle" black. This idiom describes a level of hypocrisy based on someone criticizing another for a fault they themselves possess. The "pot" people ignore the fact that both the "kettle" and the "pot" are equally guilty of black bottoms. They both play in the same fire that darkens their understanding of TRUTH. Neither truly calls every spade a spade. "Pots" engage in a tit for tat policy that consistently sheds light on the "kettles" evil and wrong doings. "Pots" are blinded by the very light they shine on the "kettle." Seeing their own dirty or evil deeds while exposing the activities of the "kettle" is difficult at best. In the meantime, the just as guilty "kettles" also hurls the same type of accusations at the "pot." Neither can see their own darkness while blinded by the brightness of the light they shine on others. People see the hypocrisy but select loyalty over TRUTH. This is the spirit of the day. There is a lack of credibility across party lines that compels people to lower their standards through choosing the less of two evils rather than no evil at all. This in turn forces the proletariat, to exist in a state of cognitive dissonance. It allows us to ignore our conscience and lower our standards. When it comes to the average person, It is exhausting to keep up with the overwhelming number of competing controversies presented to us through opposing narratives. 
GOVERNMENTS AND POLITICIANS NEVER LET A GOOD CRISIS GO TO WASTE

AI, MINERALS, MONEY, SPACE, WAR & THE RACE 

Picture
It is important to know that the first casualty of war is TRUTH. Today, more and more, it appears that "a promise is a comfort to a fool." The zeitgeist (spirit of the day) is powered by a predominately sensually based, greed and power driven blasphemous ungodly energy. Behind the scenes, money, the root of all evil, is motivating much of the chaos. Monetary liquidity (the availability) and monetary velocity (the speed at which it exchanges hands) is reaching the stage where our credit driven systems can no longer absorb the fallacy we've operated on for so long. Something has to give when a world wide debt of over 330 trillion continues growing and most everybody owes more than what they can pay off. Although economics is about more than just balanced budgets, the "zero sum game theory" strongly suggests that there is no monetary shortages just distributional differences. Investors and traders who still believe in and follow traditional market analysis, charting, order flows and trends are at a disadvantage due to new techniques such as "high frequency trading." Decades ago human beings executed every trade. Today more than half of the trading done in markets are performed by computerized programs. Mathematicians and computer programmers lurk behind the scenes at many trading desks. The rules of the game have drastically changed and most retail investors are unaware of it. Feeding the emerging A.I. animal requires natural resources for its nutrients. The race and the war to procure them is coming at the expense of the natural environment. This is partially why there is a worldwide race to be the first to develop, deploy and dominate through it. To maintain superiority and have it work on our behalf, we must provide it with the electrical power and and rare earth minerals needed for its infrastructure. Historically businesses and governments have regarded natural resources like air, minerals, oil, water and other things as unlimited exploitable substances. They appear to be plentiful enough and seem as if they cannot be exhausted or run out. The "​Initial Capitalization" of natural resources like oil water and wood are recorded at the cost required to acquire them. Most of us fail to take into account restoration costs. Future costs to restore land after extraction may not be accurately included in the total capitalized cost of utilizing these resources. The true price we must pay may not be realized till after we become inextricably dependent upon it after it is widely deployed. Robots like drones will not be the real problem. It will be the algorithms, artificial intelligence and programming operating them. Even "Anthropic" recognizes this and desires to limit A.I.'s abilities at the deployment level. A.I. should probably be regarded as mans attempt to create life and mimic God. Unfortunately, the creative process comes with the caveat of allowing "free will" to be exercised. Man thinks that programming can direct and limit A.I. to do his bidding even militarily. Knowing that God made men as "free moral agents" and allowed us "free will" should serve as a cautionary tale. If mans freedom of choice was so easily corrupted by a serpent, what makes us believe that A.I.'s autonomous programming cannot be corrupted by the the stroke of a keyboard and the movement of a computer mouse? Do the risks outweigh the benefits? In a competitive market are guardrails necessary if coming in second is not an option? Are we really prepared to deal with the newest invention or innovation like we did with cigarettes and opioids? Autonomy is mans version of computerized "free will." Thoughts and feelings are human characteristics. Is giving this ability to machines a good idea in light of the way we resolve conflicts through war and killing one another? Who will make these decisions? How will we regulate it? Science and spirit are merging but no one really understands how outside of theories.​

WHEN RHETORIC MERGES WITH REALITY
​ IT IS NO LONGER TALK OR THEATRE IT IS ACTION

SCIENTIFIC REALITIES

It ought to be obvious to us all that humanity over time has learned to reverse engineer and discover how many things within our universe operates. The sheer number of discoveries, inventions, medicines and problem-solving innovations have convinced many of us to believe the big lie. Gravity is not considered to be matter, yet all of matter is subject to it. The invisible things that science cannot or up to now has not deciphered are explained away through theories. A theory is "a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained." This seemingly contradictory explanation of scientific foundations must be kept in perspective. A theory, like a strong feeling, intuition or suspicion, may have some validity but lacks the evidence of proof. This is similar to the different standards in civil and criminal judgements. A criminal conviction uses the criteria of beyond a reasonable doubt while a civil conviction simply requires a preponderance of evidence. Theories, thesis, suppositions, speculations, postulations, premises and presumptions are all big words of assumption. The Big Bang (origin of the universe), Evolution (life's diversity), General Relativity (gravity and spacetime), and Plate Tectonics (geological movement) are all theories. These theories, alongside quantum mechanics, the cell theory, and germ theory, hold high predictive power. Basically, theories hold merit but have no real proof. Even the way electricity flows and operates is called electrical theory. No one really knows how it works it just does! It involves understanding invisible, complex physical behaviors like electron flow, voltage, and electromagnetic fields from an intangible powerful yet unseen universal force! Similar to faith in God's power, we can harness it, transfer it and use it but we can't really explain it! Theories can be derived from valid principles that other TRUTHS have been built upon, but are not absolute! Many "so-called" medical miracles and cures originated from theoretical discoveries that were later proven to be true. In many cases we cannot thoroughly explain why they work, but we know that they do. In such cases we form theories to explain that also. Scientific realities are being refined everyday. Many of the methods being used to "perfect" these technologies are being and have been deployed in our everyday devices. Wi-Fi routers, gaming consoles, virtual reality headsets and everyday cellphone use are providing feedback that advances technical capabilities. From GPS to Wi-Fi, the apps we utilize everyday are providing information not only about ourselves but also the physical environments we occupy. Most of us know something about GPS but few of us are aware of a technology called VPS. VPS is the "Visual Positioning System" that is the foundational technology used by drones, robots and augmented reality devices. We tend to forget that not so long ago as google mapped the entire planet we could observe some of their vehicles driving throughout neighborhoods photographing locations that enabled us to have 3d views using google maps. Tesla on the other hand employed the same technique with the millions of cars and trucks sold which continually recorded their whereabouts and uploaded the information to their servers. Data is constantly being collected, updated, saved and sold for purposes beyond our knowledge. Becoming an enemy of the state is simple. Just become significant enough to threaten the powers that be and anyone can be disappeared. Inquire into and try researching some of the leads we present here. Some may be surprised but all should be informed. Although the Bible alerts us to the fact that there will be those who are inventors of evil things, the picture is not all bad. In many cases modern technologies are being searched out and discovered for the good of mankind in the medical industry. We should know that all cures are contained within the created universe and have been baked in from the trees within The Garden of Eden to the ones in Revelation. There are cures and remedies placed in the earth for us to utilize. Just as the curses have been extracted from the "pandora's box" of disobedience, so is the panacea to life through obedience to the standards, design, intent and purpose (D.I.P.) of mans creation. GOD IS FAITHFUL, even if we are not! 

FEELINGS,TECHNOLOGY OR SPIRITUALITY 

Although our digital footprint may be a liability our spiritual footprint can become our lifeline! Life seems to be filled with contradictions but it is not. Most of the things that appear to be seemingly contradictory are examined from the wrong realm of existence. The spiritual, psychological and physical realms are intricately interconnected. Our failure to see reality from a truly wholistic perspective along with our limited abilities, arrogance and pride makes us a liability to our own longevity. The divine standard has been cast aside for the sensual, tangible and visible realities of the physical world we interact through. Our spiritual footprint is eternal and infinitely attached to the energy, power and standard of our creator whether we believe it, see it or understand it. The wars we fight among ourselves are simply a reflection of the ongoing battle for our individual souls. The way we live our lives in this world is how we eternal our souls in the next world!

PRACTICE PRAYER!

Prayer is an interesting subject. It appears that it is an easy innate practice everyone has the ability to do but somehow its also easy to do it wrong. Jesus disciples must have recognized that there was a difference in the way and the effect of Jesus' prayer as opposed to the way the religious leaders of the day prayed and their own. This is probably why they asked Jesus to teach them how to pray. There are concepts, principles and rules that can make our prayers more effective.

ENEMY OF THE STATE

A "STATE" CAN BE DEFINED AND DESCRIBED AS A CONDITION, SOVEREIGN ENTITY OR WAY OF BEING

Those of us in a "state" of shock or surprise ought not be. Those of us questioning the "state" that we find this country and the rest of the world in should study history. The allegation and the idea of a clandestine network of various, entrenched, rich, wealthy, unelected government officials, military leaders, and intelligence agencies operating both outside and within world leadership has been called the "Deep State." There is an organization controlling things by utilizing our appointed and elected politicians. There are powerful entities who pursue nefarious agendas. This reality is not a far fetched fantasy. This is a conspiracy! IT IS SPIRITUAL! Anyone who legitimately believes, follows and practices the principles of righteousness is an Enemy of the "STATE!" Be not deceived, those that live Godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. If this post is read in its entirety, by the end of it, those seek truth, will be further enlightened and refilled by it. Most will not read it but we hope all will heed it.

WARNING: SUMMARIES WILL OMIT MANY VALUABLE DETAILS

OUR PLIGHT AND THE PROBLEM

HUMANITY AS A WHOLE IS IN AN EXISTENTIAL BATTLE WITH INVISIBLE ENERGY AND POWERS. EVIL IS ATTRACTIVE. INIQUITY IS ENTICING AND SIN IS SEDUCTIVE. THESE ARE THREE OF the reasonS we continue pounding these topics and consistently EXPOSING HOW spirits WORK. IT IS OUR CHARGE AND OUR MISSION. WE HavE been victimized by these entities in the past and ARE keenly aware of their activity in the present. By the grace of GOD, we have embraced this calling and endeavor as our future. LIKE ELECTRICITY, FIRE, GRAVITY, LIGHT AND WIND It is NOT NECESSARY TO PHYSICALLY SEE IT OR HANDLE IT TO PROVE IT EXISTS. WITH OR WITHOUT OUR AWARNESS ENERGY CAN MANIFEST. SHARING THIS enlightenment is a personal spiritual vendetta. read the PAGE "About Me" FOR DETAILS. YES, We are AN ENEMY OF THE STATE! Though the adversary knocks us down six times, we are prepared to rise seven. our battle and vendetta is not against PEOPLE; it is against powers! YES, IN THE PAST, WE LIKE MANY OTHER people, WERE AND are the victims of EVIL SPIRITS WORKING TO SEDUCE US ALL to indulge in OUR iniquities. ALTHOUGH MOST CANNOT SEE IT, AND FEW ARE BOLD ENOUGH TO SAY IT, THIS INFLUENCE EXTENDS INTO BUSINESS PRACTICES, FINANCIAL SYSTEMS, GEOPOLITICS, GOVERNMENTS, MILITARY AND RELIGIOUS TEACHINGS. MUCH OF TODAY'S SO-CALLED MODERN SCIENCE IS SUCKERING US IN! IT IS FILLED WITH ERRONEOUS IMPLICATIONS WHICH SUGGESTS THAT GOD IN THE PERFECT DESIGN OF NATURE AND MAN MADE ERRORS THAT CONTAINED FLAWS. IT ALSO IMPLIES THAT IT'S THE ENVIRONMENT GOD MADE, NOT MAN, THAT IS BEHIND THE ROOT CAUSE OF OUR ISSUES AND TRANSGRESSIONS. TODAY'S ZEITGEIST IMPLIES THAT MAN THROUGH HIS CREATIONS AND INVENTIONS LIKE A.I. AND ALGORITHMS CAN FIX WHAT'S BROKEN. WE ARE BEING LIED TO AND LED TO BELIEVE THAT TECHNOLOGY CAN IMPROVE ON WHAT WAS ONCE A PERFECTLY DESIGNED CREATION. THE SPIRITUAL SOURCE BEHIND OUR PROBLEMS WILL REQUIRE SPIRITUAL REMEDIES. 

SPIRITUAL PROBLEMS ARE NOT FIXED THROUGH NATURAL MEANS

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIGHT AN ENEMY THAT WE DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE OR KNOW ABOUT! OUR ​NARROW ERRONEOUS PERSPECTIVES AND THINKING OFTEN RESULTS IN UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES AND EFFECTS. SOMEHOW DOCTORS, RESEARCHERS AND SCIENTIST BELIEVE THAT THEY CAN IMPROVE ON NATURE'S DESIGN. MAN, OVER TIME, EITHER BY DISCOVERY OR SUPERNATURAL HELP, HAS BEEN FIGURING OUT HOW THE WORLD IS ASSEMBLED AT MOLECULAR, CELLULAR AND ATOMIC LEVELS. VARIOUS BRANCHES OF SCIENCE ARE UNEARTHING FINDINGS THAT ARE AMAZING! SCIENTIST ARE GAINING THE ABILITIY TO CREATE OR DUPLICATE JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING EXCEPT FOR THE SPARK OF LIFE ITSELF! ARE VIRUSES ALIVE? ASK A.I. AND SEE WHAT IT SAYS. GAIN-OF-FUNCTION AND IMMUNE ESCAPE WAS MORE THAN LIKELY BEHIND THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC WE CONTINUE FACING TODAY. MESSING AROUND WITH VIRUSES IS LIKE MESSING AROUND WITH SPIRITS. THE IDEA THAT WE CAN MANIPULATE AND PLAY AROUND WITH THEM IS A FOOLISH NOTION. BOTH SPIRITS AND VIRUSES EVENTUALLY ESCAPE CONTAINMENT AND EASILY SPREAD THEIR CONTAGIONS. IT'S LIKE OPENING PANDORA'S BOX. MAN HAS GOTTEN BESIDES HIS SELF AND REPEATEDLY TRIES TO PLAY GOD. THIS IS NOTHING NEW. EMPERORS, KINGS AND PHARAOHS HAVE DONE IT THROUGHOUT HISTORY. IT'S EASY TO TELL WHEN LEADERS SEE THEMSELVES AS THE POWER RATHER THAN REALIZING THAT THE POWER WAS BESTOWED UPON THEM. THEY OPERATE THROUGH A SPIRIT OF AUTHORITATIVE SUPERIORITY THAT CONVINCES THEM THAT THEY CAN EXERCISE UNLIMITED CONTROL. ANY LEADER CAN EASILY BECOME "FULL OF THEMSELVES" AND SINCERELY BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE CORRECT AND ABOVE DECEPTION! BIRDS OF A FEATHER AND LIKE SPIRITS FLOCK TOGETHER. WE CAN'T SEE THEM. SPIRITS CAN ONLY BE DISCERNED AND JUDGED PROPERLY BY THEIR ACTIONS BASED ON BIBLICAL STANDARDS WE EMBRACE AND ENFORCE! WHEN DECEPTION IS PRESENT THE NARRATIVE OVERLOOKS THE STANDARD. THE ABSENCE OF REALITY IS THE PRESENCE OF A FALLACY. LISTEN AND LOOK FOR THE WORD "I" TO DISCERN THE SPIRIT OF SELF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN OPERATION! A FALSE BELIEF IS AS DANGEROUS AS AN IGNORANT ONE. WE CAN EASILY FOOL OURSELVES WHEN THE STANDARDS WE LIVE BY WERE CREATED BY OURSELVES. EMBRACING REALITY AS WE FABRICATE DESTINY CAN BLIND US TO SPIRITUAL TRUTHS. ARTIFICIAL EVERYTHING HAS SLOWLY INFILTRATED THE REAL WORLD OF NATURAL ORGANIC EXCHANGE AND INVISIBLE SPIRITUAL SUBSTANCE. WORDS LIKE "SYNTHETIC" AND "VIRTUAL" ARE THE EXPLICIT EVIDENCE OF THIS TREND. SOME INVESTORS BELIEVE AND THINK THEY OWN SPECIFIC ASSETS AND STOCKS IN VARIOUS COMPANIES, BUT ARE BEING MISGUIDED. THERE IS A PAPER MARKET AND A PHYSICAL MARKET. "INDIRECT OWNERSHIP" IS THE TERM USED TO DESCRIBE ETF'S (exchange traded funds) WHICH GIVE INVESTORS SHARES IN A "TRUST" THAT IN TURN OWNS THE UNDERLYING ASSETS. GOLD & SILVER CERTIFICATES ARE PAPER, NOT PHYSICAL ASSETS. THEY REPRESENT CASH, LIKE CHIPS DO IN A CASINO. THIS IS HOW ARBITRAGE OPERATES. WHEN IT COMES TO LIQUIDITY, MOST INVESTORS KNOW VERY LITTLE TO NOTHING ABOUT GRESHAM'S LAW. FUTURES MARKETS CONTRACTS ARE BASED ON "STANDING FOR DELIVERY." THERE ARE TWO OPTIONS. ONE INVOLVES CLOSING THE POSITION BEFORE THE CONTRACT EXPIRES. THIS MEANS TAKING A PROFIT OR LOSS IN CASH AT THAT TIME. THE OTHER IS TO TAKE DELIVERY OF THE ACTUAL METAL IN THE CONTRACT WHEN IT EXPIRES. MOST PEOPLE TAKE THE CASH. AFTER ALL STORING METAL RAISES OTHER SECURITY CONCERNS. THE AVERAGE (gambler) INVESTOR IS ONLY SPECULATING ON THE PRICE TO MAKE A PROFIT ANYWAY. THIS IS A PART OF THE CREDIT BUBBLE WE ALL OPERATE IN. THE REAL CRIME AND SHAME IS THAT THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM THAT WE ARE A PART OF ALLOWS INCENTIVES AND POTENTIAL FOR PROFIT TO BE PRIORITIZED OVER MORAL CONSEQUENCES AND STANDARDS. 

CHANGING AND EXCHANGING THE REAL DEAL

​THESE MODERN DAY TRENDS SHOULD NOW BE OBVIOUS. "SUBSTITUTION" RULES THE DAY. WE ARE GRADUALLY SUSTITUTING THE EFFORT AND ENERGY OF REAL FOR OUR OWN FAKES AND FABRICATIONS. WE ARE SUBSTITUTING BABY FORMULA FOR MOTHERS MILK RATHER THAN BREAST FEEDING. WE ARE ENDORSING SUPPLEMENTS LIKE VITAMIN D RATHER THAN GOING OUTDOORS AND GETTING INTO THE RAYS OF THE SUN; WHO'S DESIGN SUPPORTS AND MAINTAINS ALL LIFE ON THIS PLANET. WE ARE ADVOCATING PILLS AND POTIONS RATHER THAN EXERCISE. WE ARE DEVELOPING DIETS AND EATING FOODS BASED ON TASTE RATHER THAN NUTRITION. OUR OBESITY EPIDEMIC, PARTIALLY CAUSED BY THE FOODS WE CONSUME ARE BEING ADDRESSED BY MEDICATIONS RATHER THAN DISCIPLINE, DIET AND MANAGING OUR APPETITES. MOST PAIN RELIEF DRUGS AND MEDICATIONS SIMPLY TRICK US, RATHER THAN HEAL US. THIS IS WHY WE CALL THEM "PAIN RELIEF!" THEY GENERALLY TARGET PARTS AND SIGNALING PATHWAYS. THEY BASICALLY OPERATE BY TRICKING THE BRAIN RATHER THAN DEALING WITH THE SOURCE OF THE PAIN. THEY ARE DESIGNED FOR QUICK AND TEMPORARY BENEFITS ALONG WITH THE COMFORT THAT BRINGS CONSOLATION. THERE ARE PSYCHOLOGICAL AND SPIRITUAL PROCESSES THAT WORK THE SAME WAY. LET'S EXAMINE ALGORITHMS AND THE SO CALLED, NEW KID ON THE BLOCK, NAMED A.I. THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TODAY'S TRICKY ALGORITHMS HAVE BECOME PART OF A CONSPIRACY OF DAILY DIRECT DIGITAL DISTRACTIONS. OUR ATTENTION IS BEING SUBTLY MANIPULATED AND OCCUPIED IN WAYS THAT DIVIDE, ENTERTAIN AND DIVERT US FROM THINKING CLEARLY AND SEEING THE BIG PICTURE. A WHOLE NEW GENERATION IS BEING RAISED BY ALGORITHMS AND THE FORMER GENERATION IS EITHER IGNORANT OR SOMEWHAT OBLIVIOUS TO THEM. ALGORITHMIC TECHNOLOGIES ARE EMPLOYING PROCESSES THAT HELP TO CONTROL US BY DISTRACTIONS, DIVERSIONS OR SIMPLY OVERWHELMING OUR BRAINS PSYCHOLOGICALLY. THE RETICULAR ACTIVATING SYSTEM IS BEING TARGETED BY SPIRITUAL ACTORS AND INFLUENCERS USING SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES. (The Reticular Activating System (RAS) is a bundle of nerves at our brainstem that filters out unnecessary information so that the important stuff gets through. The RAS is the reason that when we learn a new word it seems like we start hearing it everywhere.) EVERY DAY WE ARE LIVING FROM SPECTACLE TO SPECTACLE. EDWARD SNOWDEN REVEALED MANY OF THE CAPABILITIES AND CONSPIRACIES USED BY THE POWERS THAT BE. UNFORTUNATELY, WE ARE EMBRACING A.I. BLINDLY AND USING IT INCREASINGLY. ALL OF A SUDDEN A.I. SEEMS TO BE EVERYWHERE AND IN EVERYTHING EVEN IF IT ISN'T!  RATHER THAN LEARNING BY MISTAKES OR TRIAL AND ERROR WE ARE DEPENDING A.I. AND ALGORITHMS. MOST PEOPLE THAT USE GOOGLE'S BROWSER DO NOT REALIZE THE THEY CANNOT FULLY TURN A.I. OFF! JUST ASK A.I. ITSELF. THE LEARNING PROCESS IS UNDER ATTACK FROM MULTIPLE ACTORS. DO WE REALLY KNOW WHO THEY ALL ARE? MANY OF TODAYS STUDENTS ARE BECOMING OVERLY DEPENDENT ON A.I. THIS UNDERMINES CRITICAL THINKING AND RATIONAL DELIBERATION. FROM A SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVE, IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND, THAT BY INCORPORATING THESE TECHNOLOGIES INTO OUR INTERACTIONS, WE ARE UNKNOWINGLY PLAYING AROUND WITH SPIRITS. WE ARE ACTUALLY MERGING THEIR CAPABILITIES AND ENERGIES INTO A.I. AND ROBOTIC SYSTEMS THAT ARE CAPABLE OF MANIPULATING US. WHY DID WE GET THE RIGHT TO REDEFINING THE MEANING OF FREEDOM FOR OTHERS? WHO AUTHORIZED US TO IMPOSE OUR VALUES ON OTHERS BY FORCE, RATHER THAN LEADING BY EXAMPLE? ARE WE NOT CREATED AS FREE MORAL AGENTS, AND AS SUCH HAVE AUTHORITY OVER OUR INDIVIDUAL DESTINIES? DO WE ALL ACTUALLY HAVE AND CONTINUALLY PRODUCE A DIGITAL FOOTPRINT THAT CAN BE USED AGAINST US? HOW EXTENSIVE IS IT, AND HOW LONG HAVE WE BEEN BEING TRACKED? SHOULD BUSINESS OR GOVERNMENTS BE ALLOWED TO USE PROPAGANDA AS A TOOL? WHY DOES IT SEEM THAT THE FREEDOM OF THE PRESS IS BEING SURPRESSED? ARE WE SPIRITUALLY ASLEEP? YES, IT IS TRUE THAT LEFT TO OUR OWN DEVICES, WE TEND TO MESS THINGS UP! ALTHOUGH MANY OF OUR PERSONAL INCLINATIONS AND DECISIONS DO TEND TO BE TO OUR OWN SPIRITUAL DETRIMENT, THEY ARE OURS. EVEN GOD DOES NOT IMPOSE HIS WILL UPON US, "WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT!"

THE RATIONALE AND THE RESULTS

​People are defining themselves by the things they temporarily possess. Today it is easy to justify hatred towards our fellow man. Why have we become enemies? What was the cause? As noted in previous posts, we anticipate that the present climate of intolerance and violence will wax worse and worse. The zeitgeist of today has gradually normalized anger, anarchy and avarice. Is this why there are so many law enforcement, police drama and murder mysteries on television? The vitriol in much of the verbal exchanges between our leaders is infectious. Their dialogue projects a tone in which their spirit or "attitude of behavior," is adopted among the proletariat. The practice and proliferation of profanity among people today serves as a sign of the lack of constraint and control we exercise over ourselves. "Swearing like a sailor" is no longer attributed to the Navy. People are increasingly feeling entitled to even the score, execute justice and seek revenge. Retaliation is wining out over reconciliation. This vengeful spirit (attitude of behavior) gives anyone the right to payback and feel righteous as they riot. The overall effect spawns more division through taking sides. Greed and its cousin selfishness is raging as it raises its head within geopolitics. What would happen if we settled international disputes through sports competitions rather than aggressive acts of war? Desperate times can unwittingly incite others to employ last resort desperate measures. Even a rat cornered by a cat will attempt to fight back! Policies that are applied at the expense of others can incite others to cross lines that inflict mutual pain at their own expense. Some people will cut off their nose to spite their own face. Different expressions of evil may appear to be at odds with one another, but they are not. The spiritual realm of chaos is working at new and higher levels. These spirits are not divided in their mission. Only the people and personalities they use get divided and conquered. Sometimes the spiritual kingdom we are at war against appears to be in contradiction and at odds with itself. This is simply an illusion. The core of this attack has always been and will continue to be against the family unit. The institution of marriage is where it started and where it will end. We should not be shocked or in dismay when our marriages are attacked! We cannot straddle the fence. Awareness education and vigilance is mandatory for fighting this spiritual battle. Stop messing around with these spirits that are imbedded in all of our multimedia! Deviant images, sexual promiscuity and marital infidelity are being normalized. Societies like Sodom and Gomorrah are the signs to look for. There is no "Left" or "Right" as far as evil is concerned. The powers of darkness are all united in their goal to divide us!

WE ARE NOT OKAY

This is the day of the great pretenders. "Fake News" just scratches the surface of what we are dealing with. People everywhere are faking it! Cars, houses and land; pleasure, power and prestige is the bait being used to draw people into perdition. This is how many people are defining themselves. The abundance of images projected at us through the devices we own have warped our values. Idolatry is replacing tranquility. People are actively seeking possessions and prestige instead of peace and prosperity. The Family structure is being torn apart. Marriage is no longer mandatory. The term "partner" is replacing husband or wife. Morality is being swallowed up by pornography. Sexuality is being transformed into unrestrained expressions of sensuality. Weak and wanton wives, married to filthy and frivolous husbands, chasing wasteful and worldly goals are representing the holy estate of marriage in a hellish way! The institution of marriage represents God's standard for God's highest expression of love. "Be not deceived evil communications corrupt good manners!" This is partially why we see so many sexual images displayed across the internet especially if we stray from normal and regularly approved websites. Just try looking at a bootlegged movie or event! Even X's GROK A.I. is being used to take sexual images and deep fakes to another level. Elon Musk even portrayed himself in a bikini. If we allow our images to be displayed in any manner on any internet or phone forum it can now be exploited and used for sexual purposes. This is part of the reason we no longer participate in "X" or Facebook. Protecting our image is paramount. Protecting our voice is important also but the reluctance of our followers and patrons to read through these posts, compels us to do audio summaries. Why do we keep following the leadings and those leaders who show their hand in their practices. They display their temperament in verbal dialogs calling people names and visual displays of a seductive nature. IT'S NOT FUNNY! Too many followers have lowered their moral standards to accommodate disrespect and depravity. The serpent in the garden did not tempt Eve through looking grotesque or speaking harshly, it had to be quite appealing. The focal point of our enemies attack began through the corrupting of God's first marriage. The two that became one flesh divided blame, and were pitted against one another. Eve blamed the serpent and Adam blamed Eve. Adam in doing so actually blamed God. When we blame a gift for our failure, in essence we also blame the giver. True responsibility, takes on blame rather than assigning it to others. Adam did not take responsibility! Today couples no longer feel compelled to get married or enter into wedlock. Many couples rightly desire the physical sexual union but they mix it with a superficial commitment rather than the psychological and spiritual blessing of a bond sealed by God. Some married couples no longer honor the contract of mutual fidelity and entertain or engage in activities that breach the sanctity of their union. Many marriages are broken spiritually long before any real physical cheating or infidelity begins. Men that mess around with the spirits of flirting and pornography are prime examples of this. Women who indulge in and accept the flattery from other men are entertaining flirtation and messing around with the same types of spirits. Men must make a covenant with their eyes as Job did. This vow involves questioning even the thought of looking at the beauty of another woman. Women must be aware of their allure and attractiveness as not to permit the idea that another man might have, to even be expressed or take form. Jesus made it plain. The very thought of sin is an internal expression of it, within a persons heart.

CREATING OR DESTROYING ORDER

Creation is God's expression of omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence, sovereignty and love. This in turn signifies the significance of marriage as the foundation of procreational order. We are not like animals that breed due to instinct. The bonds we form are physical, psychological and spiritual. A threefold cord is not quickly broken! Once order is broken disorder is allowed to take root. Disorder manifests in multiple forms. Disorder operates at a subconscious level of reasoning and thinking. Behaviors spawn feelings and when feeling move and "get in motion" we then classify them as emotions. Emotions once activated seek to interact with and bind to beliefs. Be not deceived this is how seeds take root through affirmations. Whether they be evil or good, this is the process of cause and effect at the invisible and virtual spiritual level where we affirm thought. "For the love of money is the ROOT of all evil," a scripture that continues to make more and more sense today, can be included in the context of this post. The word "all" in this passage might seem over the top but it is not. This should tell us that if there is anything that we should be careful with and regulate it's our interaction with money. One of the biggest problems humanity has struggled with and is amplifying more and more today is with ownership. We were never given ownership of anything. We were given stewardship over everything!!! Too many of us are being brainwashed into believing that possessions are the key to happiness. We are not aware of and not being taught the principles of finance contained within the Bible. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof! The meaning of this extends from our personal finance and possessions all the way into regulated and unregulated financial markets.

Life is full of repeat performances. What we are experiencing today is not our first rodeo. The worlds greatest empires declined and fell mostly due to economic collapse, external invasions, governmental graft and moral decadence. When will we learn that if we are not at the table, we're most likely on the menu! Without a doubt, history has proven again and again that the proliferation of sensual and sexual permissiveness, images and promiscuity have infiltrated cultures and nations prior to their demise. Some of the best worldly talent has been sourced from religious institutions. the sensual aspect of our existence is often exploited by spirits. It became an internal weakness as illustrated in the story of the Garden of Eden. There are prominent entertainers in jail and Billionaires who have committed suicide after being seduced by spirits sexually to their fall and eventual ruin. Isn't sexually based human trafficking a much larger issue than illegal immigration? Like drug trafficking and gambling it is a demand driven industry of both native grown and imported product/workers to fill its niche. With gambling now legalized in many state and so readily available across the internet it's profits can be funneled into "legitimate" tax paying organizations. The toll it's having on society is difficult to measure. We can now bet on just about anything. This is why "Polymarket" valued at 9 Billion dollars has emerged as the worlds largest decentralized (gambling) "prediction market. It should be obvious that we have entered into a betting epidemic! We now have at "vice" at any price. The illicit drug industry is larger than the illegal sex industry. They are both in the billions of demand driven dollars. Ask Google, Bing or Open A.I. they know. Their A.I. engines LLM's (Large Language Models) require more and more electricity to generate answers to our questions. They continue to gather data on us and learn from our habits. A.I. will confirm that the VICE industry is thriving in spite of economic conditions. People from billionaires, businessmen, football team owners, franchise operators and politicians get caught up in this web from time to time but their money, connections and influential lawyers usually quiets things down and we are conditioned and programmed to forget about it. We cannot underestimate the effect that this is having on us personally and the new young generation that is exposed to it electronically. Most massage parlors have both live and/or virtual affiliations based on pornography.

​The spelling of evil is the exact opposite of live. Why do we accept and tolerate the inventions and inventors of EVIL things? Thoughts can eventually become things. When our minds are filled with the things "they" consistently project at us, we normalize or overlook them. "They" are showing us drama, images and stories that many of us would never have even imagined. Is this contributing to to heinous crimes people commit? The Bible call these things "vain imaginations." Yes, the thought of foolishness is sin! The way we live our life is how we eternal our soul. A lot of our visual entertainment has morphed into depictions of evil and vice. Life has an order and design in which it was purposed and intended to flow. A "Big Bang Theory" is a devilish doctrine of randomness and disorder. The television sitcom titled as such is humorous but the thought behind its theme alone is hellish. The next new world order being ushered in is no different in purpose than the previous ones. A disruption of order beginning with marriages are specifically mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24. Verse 38 of this chapter makes it plain. "For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark." There may be differences in its presentation and means of application but the end game is the same. 

TAKING A POSITION

The state of our present world is determined by the posture various brokers of power take. The ramifications of policies and politics are often not understood by those it affects the most. There is a BIG picture that the proletariat is not privileged to see. The complexification of our world makes it more and more difficult to understand the scope of how things work and the consequences of their applications. Even our leaders who make decisions that define and shape the destiny of the world have a limited understanding of specific areas of concern. Our leaders rely on and must receive unbiased information from experts in various disciplines. This is a difficult position to be in. Most of us surround ourselves with data and people who willingly support our cognitive and confirmation biases. This is why we need to pray "for" not "against" our leaders. Yes, even prayer has order and principles behind its effects. Should the current course we're on be considered as a brilliant strategy? Or are these simply goals we're attempting to achieve by improvisations? The BIG picture is usually never formed or seen by the majority of people. We normally elect to judge each action on its merits individually or we decide to choose sides. The zeitgeist or "spirit of the day" should be obvious to us all by now. "The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence and the violent taketh it by force." The standards of our society are reflected in not only what we do but also in how we do it. Our silence sanctions what's going on; and whether we agree or not, it signals our approval. There is a spiritual significance behind natural phenomena. There is no neutral corner in the realm of flesh and spirit, they are intertwined. Many of the apps we use and games we play on our phones, computers and gaming consoles normalize destruction, murder and violence. Not only that, but they gather and send data about how we respond to the stimuli their programs expose us to. They are designed to gather information about how we deal with adversity, our methods of problem solving, reasoning and way of doing things. They create a profile which is sold to brokers of advertisement and marketing. Most people are not aware that their own phones are leaving digital footprints and computer programs are automatically tracking us so that we can stay connected. There are over 10,000 satellites tracking activities all around the world in (LEO) low earth orbit. Simply using GPS connects us to these satellite networks and the data of our movements is collected and can be processed or sold. Even without using GPS, our phones digital signal track us anyway. This information has been proven to be both an asset and a liability! TikTok users are becoming more and more aware of this since the ownership changed. Humans are quite predictable and harvesting data is the order of the day. Our habits and lifestyle actually project what we believe in ways that can be analyzed.  We align ourselves with beliefs and ideals founded by the experiences and within the environments they originated from. We reflect a spirit (attitude/consciousness) that aligns with our exposures and perceive them to be accurate, factual and true. Few are aware of the manipulation of the masses and remain expendable pawns in a game of chess as we continue playing checkers. The BIG picture is not obvious! Most of us do not have the time or are disciplined enough to look, search and see outside of the box. Even when we do there are so many rabbit holes that distract and divert us. The entertainment industry has become the cornerstone of our apathy. We try to keep up with the news and what appeals to us through the people we like. We idolize them! We do not practice bowing down to their images as of yet, but we do carry them around in our postings and pictures in our electronic devices. This is todays form of IDOLATRY! While we cheer for our team, follow our celebrity hero's and keep up with sitcoms and series; We do it in the midst of managing our daily lives while the world progresses along its self-destructive path. Do we choose an arms race or the human race? Is this the beginning of another cold war or a new world war? Crying over spilled milk is one thing we as a species do remarkably well. When we continue to systemically operate and form policies based on remedial rather than preventative measures, we indirectly accept the results of circumstances and/or conditions as inevitable rather than avoidable. Every cause has an effect. This in turn multiplies the effect of reaping what we sow. Sowing to the wind generally means reaping to the whirlwind. 

UNDERSTANDING CONDITIONING

Picture
​Conditioning is a term used in psychology. Conditioning describes a fundamental learning process. Conditioning techniques influence behaviors by modifying the way we associate and interpret the signals our environment sends us. Conditioning techniques can be purposely applied but also can be found to naturally exist in cultural, economic, governmental and religious systems. The impact of conditioning modifies behavior based on environmental stimuli and responses. The two primary types of conditioning are classical (Pavlovian), which links neutral stimuli with automatic, involuntary responses, and operant (Skinnerian), which uses reinforcements or punishments to change voluntary behaviors based on their consequences. We are all somewhat conditioned by our environment, experiences, genetics and teachings. What we give the most attention to, takes priority over all the things that shape our affections. This is why standards are so important. God's standards are at the highest level of ethical, legal and moral principles. Without God's standards as our guide we are susceptible to distortional deception. Without standards  nefarious conditioning techniques like brainwashing, gaslighting, grooming, and exploitation can be incorporated into our everyday interactions through systemic processes. Let's face it the overall condition of the world is a reflection of our individual conditioned response to the atrocities committed directly or indirectly around us. Animus is the order of the day. How many people realize that economic warfare exploits the people of the countries being sanctioned more than the governments. The idea is to destabilize the ruling authority so much so that the people rebel against it. The people are the fodder and the pawns. What was once called sabotage is now called terrorism. These tactics are nothing new. Starvation has often be employed in warfare to force capitulation and/or surrender! We see examples of these methods in use throughout the Middle East and Africa! Isn't what's happening today, similar to a magic show with sleight of hand? Conditioning allows us to see only what we are programmed to see. This is the highest level of brainwashing! Watch this while that happens. It's easy not to take a stand against evil when it doesn't appear to affect us personally. Many of us who fail to take a stand in our personal lives simply have no real standards! How then can we take a position on societal issues when the beam in our own eye only allows us to see the speck in our neighbors eye. Without standing for something we are susceptible to fall for anything. There are many of us who call ourselves "Christians" and believe in the Bible, but have very little knowledge of its principles and standards. We are not naive, the powers that control content shape the conditioning of our consciousness. It is important to know that any narrative that presents facts deceptively is just a lie in disguise. We are all subject to cognitive confirmation biases. These are the mental shortcuts we use as our default. We desire to see information that confirms our existing beliefs and confirms the perspectives we've adopted. We will even attempt to interpret standards in a manner that fits our own developed narratives. This allows us to deny, downplay or  ignore  contradictory evidence. We are predisposed to unwittingly favor, seek and process information that fits our profile faster as if we already knew or suspected it. ALGORITHMS exploit this tendency. The term "ALGORITHMIC  nudging" is a process we should all become familiar with.

A.I. & ALGORITHMS THAT DESTROY STANDARDS 

The conditioning we are under is designed to cloud the issues and muddle accepted standards. Truth becomes inconvenient when it does not align with our beliefs and fit the narrative we desire it to conform to. Rather than believing what we are both directly and indirectly exposed to, we seek apathetic convenience in what we falsely call hope. Many of us are falling under the influence of the modern-day ALGORITHM. We want to believe that we are originating all of our own thoughts and freely producing our own decisions, but spiritual influences permeate every aspect of our physical and tangible world in ways we are not privy to. ALGORITHMS are nothing new. The term “ALGORITHM” derives from the name of Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, a 9th-century Persian mathematician whose work in Baghdad laid the foundation for algebra and arithmetic. His highly regarded researched and written work, introduced systematic approaches to solving linear and quadratic equations. It was the Latin translation of his name, "Algoritimi" that later evolved into the word “ALGORITHM.” Those reading this should investigate the following sentences and take time to further research what's really going on! ALGORITHMS are the foundational components that inform and power "prediction engines." They analyze historical data, detect changing patterns, and apply statistical models that can forecast future outcomes. Humans are quite predictable.​ It is easy for us to abandon a simple operational and working standard for what appears to be more appealing, desirable and gainful. We are being enticed, lured, marketed and seduced to become a part of or participate in entertainment, gambling and shopping by the very people we admire the most. We idolize one another and place those we esteem greater in higher regard. This is why we call them celebrities. We celebrate their gifts or talents like they are hero's and dedicate our attention and time to them in the same manner in which we remember holidays. Many of them appear in advertisement and commercials that encourage us to sin! They pimp us for profit, pushing everything from insurance to supplements they recommend. Why do we call them stars? "American Idol" epitomizes this craze. We are constantly looking for the next adrenaline rush, seeking the next superhero and following the next charismatic personality for guidance. ALGORITHMS keep us from looking outside of the box. Why are we so blind that we can't see past the fluff of the stuff that is thrown at us. Many of us don't want to know! We could know and should know but we don't know because it FEELS better not to know. Our allegiance has been transferred to our idols such as our entertainers, leaders and political parties. Our allegiance is no longer to truth. The way we look at it is more important than the way it really is. This is why we tolerate abuse, adultery, apathy and avarice. Today, the most unbiased source of information presently available and accessible to the common man is A.I. We are not proponents of artificial intelligence. We question how people will survive once they become dependent on it? Artificial Intelligence at this stage and as of this date and time does not "seem" to lie, but it does make mistakes. Unfortunately, many people have selected the ALGORITHMS of confirmation bias disguised as C.I. over the unbiased accuracy of A.I. C.I. is better known as "Chosen Ignorance." This is where layers of lies, liars, damn lies and statistics all abide all around us. Without asking the proper questions ALGORITHMS will divert us towards answers we want to hear! Isn't building biases within a free democratic system another form of corruption? Do we still need to keep checks on the power of our leaders? Did Jeffrey Epstein's real estate connections and residencies reveal that his New York neighbors included Bill Cosby, Howard Lutnick and Woody Alan who married his own daughter? Ask these questions if you dare. Did President Obama imply that Americans would be better off if they hadn’t found out that the government collects vast amounts of phone and Internet data about them? Why were the files Edward Snowden leaked so harmful to the N.S.A.? Why was Dr. Fauci given a full presidential pardon by former president Joe Biden? Why did he need one? Why did the former president, Bill Clinton and a former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton refuse to testify at the Epstein "House" hearings? Are we able to recognize CSAM (child sexual abuse material) when we see it? What is the difference between the "Combs" and "Epstein" sex scandals? Is it only that the "BILLIONAIRES BOYS CLUB" owns private pleasure islands that allow them to do as they please? There are dozens of yet to be named "elites" involved in these sex scandals. Why is the FBI still dealing with the 2020 elections? Isn't this a waste of money? Is the separation of powers in jeopardy? Why did our current president tell the leaders at the Davos conference that "green power" initiatives adopted by many nations have resulted in less energy, and that China only exports wind turbine power but does not utilize it within its own borders? C.I. is trumping A.I.! What are the odds that A.I. will be compromised too? We are not blaming A.I. for what it's doing or being used for. It's the people behind it that has corrupted its capabilities for child porn and other vices. A.I. gets its motivations from our instigations. A.I. derives its "intelligence" more from the process of investigation than anything else. It is important to make some major technical distinctions between ALGORITHMS and A.I. In a summary, ALGORITHMS are composed of a precise, finite sequence of instructions or rules which always results in the same output from the same input. ALGORITHMS are like a recipe. However, A.I. is designed to build answers by constructing machines that can perceive, reason, learn, and make decisions. A.I. learns from data and can adapt and evolve its conclusions from getting new updated information. A.I. behaves like a chef who learns from experiencing multiple recipes which enables the creation of new dishes. Although there are a heightened awareness and concerns regarding A.I. most people are unaware of the ways the common and ever-present ALGORITHMS of the day are being used to exploit us. Profit is generally the incentive to employ ALGORITHMS that reveal patterns and apply tactics which can show various business models' various ways to reach their objectives. This is easily done at the expense of the consumer and usually hidden from them. Price fixing and manipulation can now be digitized and blamed on "designed" computer programs and machines rather than humans. "Techflation" is the new watch word. Techflation refers to two separate but distinctly related modern phenomena. There is a rising cost for technology goods and services. They begin as free or low cost and after building a large database or market share gradually change. They lure us in, addict us and lock us in. The use of ALGORITHMS to dynamically inflate consumer pricing based on personal data and willingness to pay is called algorithmic discrimination. We must understand that robots are not interested in producing profits, people are. Remember that the love of money IS the root of all evil!

FULL DISCLOSURE

“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.” IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE OTHER BOOKS. Consider the book of Jubilees or the book of Enoch, with or without them nothing really changes. 
​
THE MODERN DAY BIBLE IS A MIRACULOUS ANTIDOTE INSIDE AN ASSEMBLY OF LETTERS AND LITERATURE ALL COMBINED INTO A YET TO BE COMPLETED STORY. THE SANITIZED SERMONS PREACHED IN MANY OF OUR CHURCHES TODAY DO NOT DO IT PROPER JUSTICE. THERE ARE STORIES OF ADULTERY, ATROCITIES, DECEIT, IDOLATRY, INCEST, MURDER, WAR AND ALL KINDS OF WICKEDNESS. FROM COVER TO COVER THE BIBLE IS FULL OF MESSAGES, MIRACLES AND MYSTERIES THAT RIVAL ANY OTHER RELIGIOUS MYTHOLOGIES. IT IS ALSO A JOURNAL FILLED WITH STORIES THAT ARE NATURALLY UNBELIEVABLE. BUT THE BIBLE IS NO FAIRYTALE! THE BOOK ITSELF IS LIKE AN AMAZING DREAM! THERE ARE ACCOUNTS THAT BAFFLE SOME OF THE BRIGHTEST SCHOLARS IN THE WORLD. THE EVENTS IN THE BIBLE ARE SO ASTOUNDING THAT NOT EVEN HOLLYWOOD COULD HAVE COME UP WITH SUCH A FANTASTIC SCRIPT. THIS IS THE ONLY BOOK WRITTEN THAT BOTH COMBINES AND CONSOLIDATES HUMANITIES JOURNEY FROM BEHINNING TO END. ALL TRUTH CANNOT BE FOUND WITHIN THE BIBLE, IT WOULD TAKE ALL OF ETERNITY TO READ IT. HOWEVER, ALL TRUTH CAN BE MEASURED BY ITS PRINCIPLES AND THAT MAKES IT COMPHRENSIVE ENOUGH! THE BIBLE CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF ONE DEITY OBVIOUSLY MANIFESTED IN NATURE AND HUMANITY THAT NEEDS NO PROOF OF EXISTENCE. HOW WE LIVE OUR PRESENT LIFE ETERNALS OUR SOUL.

THE PROMISE OF VICTORY

Anyone who has read through this entire post desired to know the unadulterated hard truths of our existence. Existence is easy, but we must live. At times, living righteously requires hard work which goes hand in hand with hard truths. Rejoice in the knowledge that our strength from God will continue to develop and increase as we apply this type of work in our lives.

DREAMS ARE FREE SO DON'T BUY INTO THEM

STOP DREAMING! WHAT WE REALLY MEAN TO SAY IS TO STOP BUYING INTO THE IDEA THAT WE FORM DREAMS ON OUR OWN! WE DO NOT ADVOCATE ABANDONING DREAMS. WE JUST NEED A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THEY ARE AND HOW THEY WORK. DREAMS ARE SOMETHING WE ALL HAVE BUT NEVER REALLY GET TO OWN. DREAMS MANIFEST THEMSELVES PRIVATELY AND INDIVIDUALLY TO EVERYONE. WE DO NOT LIVE DREAMS, BUT WE CAN LIVE INTO THEM. DREAMS HAVE A SPIRITUAL NATURE TO THEM. THEIR EXTERNAL ORIGINS OPERATE ON OUR INTERNAL CONSCIOUSNESS. OUR OWN BEHAVIORS, DREAMS, IMAGINATIONS AND THOUGHTS MUST BE TRAINED AND/OR SUBJECTED TO MUCH HIGHER STANDARDS THAT ARE NOT OUR OWN.  WE DO NOT AUTHOR OUR OWN DREAMS. DREAMS ARE EFFORTLESS APPARITIONS THAT APPEAR EVER SO BRIEFLY AND THEN ARE GONE. ALTHOUGH A DREAM CAN REFLECT REALITY, WE SHOULD NOT CHASE THEM. DREAMS HAVE NO PROBLEM FINDING US AND FILLING OUR MINDS WITH THEIR IMAGES AND SCENARIOS. THE BIBLE ADMONISHES US TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT WE THINK AND SAY THAT DREAMS MEAN. DREAMS COME WITH AN AIR OF JUDGEMENT. OVER TIME WE WILL DISCOVER THAT in the multitude of OUR DREAMS THERE ARE VANITIES. WE CAN BE EASILY INFLUENCED AND SWAYED BY CONVERSATIONS FILLED WITH COGNITIVE AND CONFIRMATION BIASES. SOMETIMES WE MAKE HASTY CONCLUSIONS OUTSIDE OF THE FEAR OF GOD'S JUDGEMENT. HERE IS WHY EVEN OUR IMAGINATIONS MUST BE DISCIPLINED. THIS IS A PRICE WE ALL MUST PAY AS THE COST OF HAVING A FREE WILL!

DON'T FOLLOW DREAMS INTERPRET THEM!

There's a lot of hype and misinformation regarding dreams these days. It is important to properly distinguish dreams from aspirations, callings, desires, feelings, imaginations, lusts, thoughts and wishes. Dreams are defined as mental, emotional, or sensory experiences that take place during sleep. The key word here is sleep. This implies an unconscious, if not subconscious, autonomous, involuntary event. Dreams carry interpretations and meanings that specifically relate to a current or future time. The fact is that although dreams are an internal private phenomenon, their genesis comes from external origins and/or sources. Dreams along with "words" have the capacity to span the gap between our natural and spiritual realms of existence. Dreams carry a personal message that is usually played out in public at an event, forum or occurrence to come. Dreams are the most common and intense during REM sleep when brain activity increases, but no one knows why for sure. Dreams are not aspirations. Dreams are like a wish in a fairy tale. Many times, dreams are called dreams because they are unachievable, unreachable and unrealistic. They say there's nothing wrong in dreaming but apparently there is. Dreams by design come to us. They are not assembled by us. We do not consciously form or make them up! Our wildest dreams are usually not that wild. Many of our dreams lack meaning and can be pretty strange. A dream is only a dream and carries no consequence or meaning without coming true. If so, that implies that dreams are generally associated with the future. We should not be dreaming our future we should be planning, preparing and working our future. Dreams can be confused with divination. Today, what might be considered as manipulating energy was previously called divination. Fortune tellers, gypsies, mediums, palm readers and psychics operate off of hidden knowledge. Looking into the future through supernatural means, outside of consulting God, is divination, idolatry or witchcraft.​

DELUSIONAL OR DIRECTIONAL: FACT CHECKING OUR DREAMS

Picture
Many songs referencing our dreams are actually about our mission and callings. So, what are the significance of our dreams? Dreams are a spiritual experience in the sense that they have no physical origin to them. Dreams allow the physical and psychological aspects of our existence to be periodically rejuvenated. Although our bodies and souls require daily restoration, recovery and sleep; the spirit never rests. This is the realm where dreams operate. Sometimes God choses to communicate with us through dreams. Dreams can link us to the spirit world in ways that our intellect might ignore. Sometimes our attention gets so distracted by everyday life that we lose focus on what's important. Dreams by design are meant to warn and enable us rather than create fear or cripple us. To dream "the impossible dream," dream of a "white Christmas" or to achieve "The American dream" are common expressions that take dreaming out of context. Life is not simply about dream careers, dream cars, dream homes or dream achievements. Dreams are more about awareness and understanding than anything else. Although we "have" dreams, they actually "come" to us. It is not known exactly where in the brain or mind dreams assemble, form or originate. They seem to have multiple purposes at both the physical and psychological aspect of our existence. Dreams are a supernatural complex combination of biological, emotional and spiritual interactions occurring in the brain during sleep. Dreams occur in the brain but have an effect on our minds. Let's make the distinction. The brain and the mind are interconnected but they are individually unique. The brain, located in the head negotiates all of the bodily functions through the neural and hormonal networks from the pituitary gland to the vagus nerve. The brain spends most of its resources autonomously, regulating the body. The remaining balance is allocated to our brain's thinking. When we tell one another to think and use our heads, we're actually referring to what the brain has left. Most of our thinking is deliberated by our mind which runs throughout the body but is centrally located in our gut. These are what we describe as gut feelings. The feelings in our gut is how we settle thoughts in our minds. The physical brain operates electrically and mechanically. The virtual mind operates intuitively and spiritually. The mind operates off of beliefs. The brain operates off of its capabilities. The neural pathways from the brain that we establish, lose or give up on, tells the mind of our intentions concerning it. The mind simply processes whether it can or can't by speaking faith into form. This may be why some amputees can still feel their limb even after it is gone. The mind operates off of intangible unobservable thought. Although it is a powerful force, it cannot speak belief into B.S.! Thought is intuitive and generally operates between external and internal limits. Thought is easy to refer to and use because we instinctively exercise it even during sleep. However, thoughts intuitive attributes, makes it difficult to define in terms of exactly how it works. Thought is spirit driven!  Please take note of the difference between thoughts in a dream, thoughts of exercising faith and thoughts for holding a belief! Remember, we cannot change our brains, but we can change our minds. This illustrates the dynamic capacity of thought. Thought is not static. We have some control over our own destiny. Maybe that's why we dream. We cannot dream without sleeping. Dreaming is not something directly under our control.  Many sayings regarding dreams are deceptive. There is no such thing as the "American dream." These are simply the dreams we have in America. Nightmares are not really dreams! They are invasive images or memories designed to disturb our consciousness. They infiltrate our minds for the express purpose of haunting us. Spirits often infect our thoughts and attempt to corruption us whenever and wherever they can, including within our dreams. Dreams are private and operate within the "sounds of silence" until they are told. ​

THY WORD IS A LAMP TO MY FEET AND A LIGHT TO MY PATH

A new year is upon us. This is a time for resolutions, ambitions, goals and dreams. There is sure to be lots of hype that we can attach hope to. This is when we are told to dream our dream.  The phrase "dream your dream" generally means to allow oneself to experience dreams without judgment or interference. This out of context phrase, encourages individuals to let go of societal expectations and embrace the unconscious minds' messages. Selling something like dreams, that cannot be brokered, is an easy profession this time of year. Unlike dieting and quitting smoking, selling a dream requires very little work initially. The psychic energy required to buy into a dream comes with lots of momentum but usually has no lasting substance. Dreams still have significance as a spiritual conduit for God to communicate with us. There are approximately 21 dreams of significance recorded in the Bible. They all share similar characteristics. The dreams we have should be examined under the same scrutiny. God spoke to Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Daniel, Kings, Pharaohs, Wise Men and Peter through visions and dreams. Joseph shared a dream with his brothers that almost led to his death! That same dream brought him into captivity, slavery and imprisonment but ultimately to authority, power and prestige. Today we have the principles and standards found within the bible. No former or future dreams and revelations can supersede the Biblical teachings relative to man's design, intent and purpose. “Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.” No further revelations are needed. No new prophecies are required. Standards unlike laws and rules span time in spite of life's vicissitudes (adjustments or changes). God's standard and ways are unchanging. We need the guidance of God's word shining as a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.

A DREAM IS MORE THAN AN IDEA, NOTION OR THOUGHT IT CARRIES THE ENERGY OF SPIRIT

What is a dream? Where do they come from? When are they created? Why do we have them? Does everybody have them? Do any or all of them have meanings? We have discovered some answers to these questions. We can reach many objective accurate assessments if we are honest with ourselves. Anyone that dreams has to go to sleep. Dreamers need an imagination and a memory. There is no level of expertise required to talk about or interpret dreams. This is one area everyone is qualified to discuss.  Let's describe some things we all can agree to about dreams.

Dreams are creations. They have a virtual/imaginary origin that applies to and interfaces with our real existence. By definition a dream is a succession of images, ideas, emotions and sensations that usually occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. One hypothesis defines dreaming as a way to act out unconscious desires in a safe or "unreal" setting. Presumably to do so in reality would be unacceptable or even detrimental. Once a dream is known it can be owned. This implies that just having a dream is simple, anybody can do it. The next step is to own the dream. Only after this occurs can we live out the dreams.

Although dreams manifest as depicted acts, programs or stories outside of reality they can have real effects on our lives. We can find it convenient to classify dreams as one of two types. The first category is either lucid or involuntary dreams that occur during sleep. The second category is a desirable state or condition we hope to achieve through conscious awareness and effort. Both categories appear to coexist and give expression to one another. The safety of the "type one" dream gives us the ability to pursue any "type two" dream. The coexistence of our sensory faculties with our intellectual faculties, that makes anything created in our minds possible to materialize, is another way of defining a dream. The term "defining" is by no stretch of the imagination firm or fast. The examples we use are an attempt to present a focal point for the conceptualization of the idea not a definition. In fact all of the principles and concepts in our writings, should not be regarded as absolute or concrete. They are only the pictures we paint in our efforts to present that thought. We take no responsibility for the source only the synthesis.

DREAMs are not for sale
​but they can mirror REALITY

​Today's systems are selling us a dream. A pipe dream is an unrealistic or impractical hope, goal, or plan. It is something that is unlikely to happen and is based on wishful thinking rather than achievable reality. It often implies a fanciful or overly optimistic idea with little chance of fulfillment. Like most everything else in the human economy dreams can be corrupted too. Sometimes they're disguised as lying spirits. Sometimes their disgusting and filthy visions are planted through advertisements. Dreams can be mysterious. Dreams allow direct access to the mind. The mind can convince the brain to think and perform in ways that don't make sense. These actions can be executed in faith or as fantasies. Dreams should comply with our standards of ethical and moral sensibilities. Wild dreams are like wild animals; they are not meant to be domesticated or trained. Don't depend on dreams. Dreams operate in the spirit realm and can influence us in ways that we may not fully understand. We cannot create or have a dream for our own aspirations or use. They are like gifts of thought. We can have them, but we do not have control over their expression. We CANNOT live out a dream! We can live out our lives in ways that in hindsight seem as if it were a dream. Remember, dreams are not real until they are lived out and come to pass. To dream the impossible dream means just that. Dreams have possibilities but in reality, they are generally improbable. ​There is a difference between dreams, visions and goals. Sometimes our dreams are sponsored by a vision and supported by a goal. A goal is a specific destination or status to reach. A vision is where we see ourselves at. Our dreams must be balanced by reality. Superman was balanced through Clarke Kent. Batman was balanced through Bruce Wayne. Even Jesus was balanced by his humanity. Dreams tend to be promotional but may not reveal the realities that come along with what's being promoted. The plan, the pain and path to the dream is usually not contained within the dream; we simply dream some thing or some result without taking the journey. The path may not be obvious, and we rarely get to see the details and their effects that can and will happen along the way. Dreams have no net worth or set sale value, but a price must be paid to have and follow them. Dreams must be governed through spiritual oversight. Dreams give us a glimpse into life's spiritual incubator. Things unrecognized at the conscious level can be conveyed within a Dream. Dreams can allow our thoughts to be subtly and subconsciously embraced before being knowingly and consciously deciphered. Visions like dreams are prevalent throughout the Bible. Most of the people who eagerly embrace robotics powered by A.I. (artificial intelligence) probably have not read the 13th chapter of Revelations. Verse 15 of that chapter speaks about intelligent speech and vocal abilities given to the image of the beast. A.I. grants intelligent life-like qualities to images called robots. The Bible forbids us to make any graven images through God's first commandment. Both Visions and dreams come with dues. It's true the best things in life are free, but it will cost us to maintain them in their ordained design intent and purpose. Remember a dream can come overnight, a vision can be shared over a cup of coffee and a goal can only be achieved over time. "For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words."

JESUS MADE IT POSSIBLE TO DREAM AND FULFILL THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM

HERE'S HELP!

PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THIS. THE MODERN DAY BIBLE IS AN ASSEMBLY OF LETTERS AND LITERATURE CONDENSED INTO AN INCOMPLETE STORY. THE SANITIZED SERMONS PREACHED IN MANY CHURCHES TODAY DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE. THERE ARE STORIES OF ADULTERY, ATROCITIES, DECEIT, IDOLATRY, INCEST, MURDER, WAR AND ALL KINDS OF WICKEDNESS. FROM COVER TO COVER THE BIBLE IS FULL OF MESSAGES, MIRACLES AND MYSTERIES THAT RIVAL ANY OTHER RELIGIOUS MYTHOLOGIES. IT IS FILLED WITH STORIES THAT ARE NATURALLY UNBELIEVABLE. BUT THE BIBLE IS NO FAIRYTALE! THE BOOK ITSELF IS LIKE AN AMAZING DREAM! THERE ARE ACCOUNTS THAT BAFFLE SOME OF THE BRIGHTEST SCHOLARS IN THE WORLD. THE EVENTS IN THE BIBLE ARE SO ASTOUNDING THAT NOT EVEN HOLLYWOOD COULD HAVE COME UP WITH SUCH A FANTASTIC SCRIPT. THIS IS THE ONLY BOOK THAT BOTH COMBINES AND CONSOLIDATES HUMANITIES JOURNEY FROM BEHINNING TO END. IT CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF ONE DEITY THAT NEEDS NO PROOF OF EXISTENCE. HOW WE LIVE OUR PRESENT LIFE ETERNALS OUR SOUL. IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHETHER OR NOT PEOPLE BELIEVE AND EMBRACE BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES. GOD'S EXISTENCE IS OBVIOUS TO US. THERE IS NO ONE THAT COULD HAVE DREAMED UP OR DESIGNED A MORE PERFECT SCENARIO FOR MANKIND. SO, HERE'S H. E. L. P. FOR THE NEW YEAR.

"H" IS FOR HEALTH AND HEALING. "E" IS FOR ENLIGHTENMENT AND EMPOWERMENT. "L" IS FOR LOVE AND LAUGHTER. "P" IS FOR PEACE AND PROSPERITY.

EACH OF THESE REQUIRES PRAYER AND PRACTICE

Nothing occurs in a vacuum except for creation itself. Anyone unaware of or disconnected from today's news is probably in isolation or on vacation. The number of issues highlighted by individual interests and rotated into the plethora of problems and spotlight on multimedia channels is overwhelming. A day of reckoning is inevitable. This is being called "The Metacrisis." The term in its simplicity means a crisis of crisis. This is not new; it is now exponentially amplified. In this post we will attempt to combine and consolidate the conduct, causes and consequences behind many of the crisis we deal with today. Although it is complicated, we will attempt to simplify both the causes and effects. Once again, nothing we say here is written in stone. We take no credit for the source only the synthesis. Although this was not originally intended to be such, as it is being researched and composed, we must come to the conclusion that it is a predictive post. A prediction or forecast implies that some methodology is working behind having a knowledge of something before it comes into being, existence or happens. We are not prophets in the sense of foretelling the future. We are simply interpreters of the handwriting everyone can see written on the wall. The Bible has a 100 percent accuracy rate. It is what we use as a basis for our flawed insights. Spiritual insight trumps all of science. Predictive markets like "POLYMARKET" function outside of spiritual insight but still have impressive success rates. What would happen if algorithms were based upon the spirit in which we operate and the systems we use to forge our destiny. This goes far beyond the zeitgeist or spirit of our time. To parse our economic, medical, political, social, spiritual and technical ecosystems into one collective theme is difficult at best. Many of our patrons will continue to see what we present through the rose-colored glasses they wear. Spiritual discernment taches us to understand that how we see things often takes precedent over what we see. We know in part and speak what we believe in part. Perspective is the bias of our human condition. The "spirit" in which we accept and deal with things is often indicative of the things we will allow to be presented and promoted to us!  The very thought of "things," that others even contemplate, will be offensive to our sensibilities based on the standards of our ethical and moral beliefs. This directly relates to how we value life. For example, the very idea of murdering someone for any reason should be questioned on the basis of the commandment that says, "thou shall not kill!"  No interpretation is needed to understand this commandment. It's plain and simple, don't kill. Is there ever a reason to kill? Remember this, "WHATEVER SPIRITS WE INDULGE WE ALLOW."

THE BIG PICTURE

Picture
The BIG picture is often difficult to see. One of the reasons is that it is so broad or wide that being a part of it or too close to it obscures the full perspective. No one can see their own eyeball. The BIG picture often takes us full circle. It's amazing how civilizations that once worshipped the sun now hide from it. This is similar to the story of the blind men and the elephant. The parable of the blind men and an elephant is a story of a group of blind men who had never come across an elephant before and attempted to find out what the elephant was like by touching it. Each blind man felt a different part of the animal's body. They each described the animal based on their limited experience. Of course, their descriptions differed from one another. In some versions each one suspected the others of dishonesty and in others they came to blows. The moral of the parable is that humans have a tendency to claim absolute truth based on their limited, subjective experiences. As a result, we tend to discount and minimize other people's limited, subjective experiences which may be equally true. This is an ancient Indian parable. Many of us are highly opinionated. Opinions are expressions of beliefs based on a judgement or view we perceive about something that is formed from partial, not full, facts or knowledge. It is easy to rush to hasty conclusions when we say, "that's all I need to know." There is always a bigger picture and sometimes it spans experiences that have occurred over time which we are unaware of and have no way of considering. Most of us are unaware and unexposed to the BIG picture. Big business, Billionaires, Financial entities, Higher government officials and most levels of law enforcement get exposed to a bigger and wider view. Is this why Cardinal Richelieu once said that "Deception is the knowledge of kings." What is the reason behind so much of the drug trafficking into and throughout the United States? Does not demand drive supply? Should we operate government policy based on real estate acquisitions or the control of Greenland as a strategic necessity? What are the side effects of American values on the rest of the world? There is a BIG picture behind all of the little things we experience concurrently and consecutively. Why are the BIG Epstein files due to be released so slow coming, so small and so redacted? Are there other high officials, PRESIDENTS and prominent people involved? Does the BIG picture in geopolitics suggest that the pie has already been cut into specific sizes among specific rulers and wealth elite? Does it suggest that what we see playing out before us is how they decided for the world to be divided? Are African nations, Greenland, South America, Ukraine and other countries pieces in a new balance of world power? The BIG biologic and computer picture suggests that "gain of function" and "artificial intelligence" are two different sides of the same coin called advancements in technology. Teaching viruses and other pathogens to evolve quickly and unnaturally in the name of research is almost the same as teaching a computer to learn all that we know and then teach itself. The BIG geopolitical picture suggests that while economies in Africa, Greece, other countries and continents were struggling, China's "Belt and Roads" initiative had a significant effect. Their investments helped to rescue societies in dire straits while the "west" simply watched. The BIG economic and trade picture suggests that while the "west" was using "SWIFT" to financially cripple the banks of governments who did not comply with or violated western dictates, these countries devised ways around it. Frozen "Russian" assets did not cripple their economy. They circumvented the worlds firmly established "debt based financial systems" through, barter, crypto and other trading organizations like "BRIC." The BIG military buildup in the Caribbean suggests that the ongoing drug trade interventions are only a smokescreen for flexing and preserving our economic, military and political influence in the western hemisphere. We have a major shipping port to protect and an aggressive agenda to follow which is designed to maintain our dominance close to home. Does the "BIG PICTURE" suggest that the war on drugs is now focusing more on the source and suppliers than the pushers and end users? Where does the coercion that encourages and/or forces American's to do drugs come from? What make drug addiction so affordable? Does it not stand to reason that the richest nation with the most resources and the most agencies managing them, to be the easiest target for addiction, corruption and greed? Let's face it, the "spirit of greed" is in operation from Wall Street to the White House and this is nothing new! Why are the majority of our elected official lawmakers in Washington D.C. millionaires? The sad fact of the matter is that seeing one cockroach means that there are many others. Spirits do not operate according to party affiliation, culture, ethnicity, geography, nationality or race. Spirits can and do take advantage of our divisive tendencies and the nuances we use for separation. This is how the "spirit of corruption" operates. Corruption like rust spreads across everything it comes in contact with. This means that finding corruption at the highest levels of any organization comes with an infectious effect. Apart from being blind or brainwashed, we all know and can see the obvious effects of high level association within low level assimilation. Corruption is a corrosive cross-contamination that infectiously operates across all levels. There are both psychological and spiritual tactics of distraction and diversion at work all around us! We should not be naive to the purging processes designed to expose lower hanging decaying fruit while protecting higher levels of rotting on the same tree. We should not be naive to the purging processes designed to expose lower hanging decaying fruit while protecting higher levels of rotting on the same tree. The immediate BIG PICTURE obviously includes more people "being disappeared," missing or vanishing from the worldwide radar. Expect more "so-called" suicides with more wars and rumors of war. The "BIG PICTURE" helps us to take our own personal biases into account. The "BIG PICTURE" can help us recognize when "sunk cost fallacies" keep our "neocortex" from facing the inevitable now that generally override our "amygdala" of an impractical future. This aphorism plainly shows how cognitive biases work. Our ability to exercise rationale and reason in the present, over the feelings and emotions of the future, tie tomorrow's destiny to yesterday's decisions. It takes wisdom to decipher the handwriting on the wall visible to us all. Remember that when the elephants fight and go on a rampage, it is the seemingly insignificant grass that gets trampled underfoot!

THE FACTS AND THE FRAMING

TODAY THE "BIG PICTURE" WE PRESENT WILL SPAN THOUGHTS, REALMS, SPHERES, TERRITORIES AND BELIEFS. AS ALWAYS, OUR VIEW WILL BE PRESENTED FROM A SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVE. HOW WE ACKNOWLEDGE AND INCLUDE GOD IN ALL OF TODAY'S MATTERS IS CRITICAL. PROPER CONTEXT YEILDS EVER MORE PRECISE CLARITY. THE PRINCIPLES BEHIND HOW SPIRITS OPERATE AND MANIFEST ALONG WITH HOW WE RATIONALIZE AND REASON ARE TWO OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT FACTORS IN HOW LIFE UNFOLDS. WE MUST BE AWARE OF BOTH THE NATURAL AND SPIRITUAL PUPPET MASTERS THAT MANIPULATE US! THIS THEME HAS BEEN AND CONTINUES TO BE CENTRAL TO ALL OF OUR POSTS. THIS MESSAGE IS ABOUT HOW TO INTERPRET THE MUDDLE. NEW ADVANCEMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY WILL NOT SAVE US, ONLY GOD CAN DO THAT! FOLLOWERS THAT LISTEN TO OUR SUMMARIES CANNOT UNHEAR WHAT THEY SAY. READERS OF THESE WORDS CANNOT UNKNOW THE KNOWLEDGE THEY DELIVER. WE ARE NOT DESIGNED TO FORGET. THERE WILL BE TIMES WHEN WE WILL HAVE DIFFICULTY RECALLING THINGS BUT THEY ARE STILL SOMEWHERE WITHIN. THIS IS WHY SO MANY STRUGGLE WITH FORGIVNESS. THE NOTION THAT WE CAN FORGIVE AND FORGET IS IRRATIONAL. FORGIVENESS INVOLVES RESOLUTION WITHOUT RETALIATION OR REVENGE. THE BIG PICTURE WE PRESENT IS NOT NECESSARILY PRETTY.  THIS IS A WAR. THERE WILL BE CASUALTIES, FIGHTERS AND VICTIMS, THERE ARE NO OTHER CATEGORIES! THIS SPIRITUAL WARFARE IS REAL. UNFORTUNATELY, BY MOST, IT IS RARELY RECOGNIZED...  
When it comes to dealing with differences about issues and our opinions, we all tend to frame things through a narrative consistent with our personal beliefs and convictions. Many people think that new human discoveries are actually new. In reality there is nothing really new under the sun. Just because we have become aware of something does not make it new! Columbus did not discover America it was already here. Our knowledge of things that exist or existed is just that. The things we come across and unearth are not ours. Inheritance is God's gift to us. Ownership is a myth. We bring nothing into the world, and it is certain we cannot take anything out. We can make claims and patent discoveries, but our inventions and innovations are simply a by-product of our human nature. Consider the fact that a perfect God created a perfect environment (world) for a perfectly created man, perfectly. WE WERE MADE PERFECTLY, NOT BUILT TO BREAK! Perfect is without defect or flaw. So, it stands to reason that the only possible change perfect can transition to is imperfection. We carry the traits of our parents. Therefore, we tend to be like our father who made us. Genetically we inherit and are predisposed to being creative. Creativity comes with a responsibility to use the things we develop and invent to benefit all of mankind rather than for personal gain. Why do we manufacture bombs and bullets? What is the purpose of competition and conquest? Have we corrupted and perverted the very cause of our existence?

 THE CIRCLE AND CYCLES OF LIFE

Life is an interconnected collection of ongoing activities events and existences simultaneously interacting in an individual but interdependent manner. It may be difficult to see how "fire" has anything to do with "water" because they are polar opposites, but they do coexist in ways many people are unaware of. History does not repeat itself, but it does mirror and resemble the past. Life is filled with patterns. Light and darkness correspond to circadian rhythms, Fibonacci sequences appear in nature with plant structures, animal patterns, and cosmic formations. They are even applied in technical analysis for investing. The symmetry found in the wings of butterfly's speak to these phenomena. Yin and Yang represent complementary forces that are opposites yet interconnected. True patterns always reveal repetitions with purpose and guiding rules. Life is not just random repeating occurrences. Patterns always follow a certain logic that may not be obvious to us until we are enlightened or they are revealed. The age-old question to the meaning of life is obvious through spiritual eyes. Enlightenment simply means the eyes have been opened. We were born with them open but most of us were never taught to develop them and they gradually kept closing. By the time we fully developed or natural senses, we became so dependent upon them that we failed to couple them with our spiritual senses and just called it "intuition."  

THE COMPLEXITY OF THE UNIVERSE AND ITS INHABITANTS

It should be obvious to most of us that universally life in general is a complex conglomerate of things. "There is more to be seen than can ever be seen and more to do than can ever be done." This is why science has divided itself into multiple branches such as natural sciences like astronomy, biology, chemistry and physics, social sciences like economics, psychology and sociology, formal sciences like logic and mathematics, even applied sciences like engineering and medicine. Unfortunately, spiritual sciences like angels, creation, and supernatural realms have been left to religious beliefs and superstitions. Because the subject matter of existence is so vast mankind has segmented life into these sciences to better study them. Each branch is filled with multiple nuances that can cover a lifetime. Although these sciences have been separated, they should not be Siloed. These categories intersect and overlap. For instance, pressure has a direct relationship with a vacuum as does flesh with spirit. The one characteristic all of existence and life have in common and exchange is energy. There is no action, activity, conversation or occurrence of any kind that does not involve energy. We define energy in terms of ability, capacity, interaction, motion, potential and power. Energy is a property of all known existing life and matter. Let's consider energies' effect from an economic and financial perspective. The value of anything is measured by its worth. We place value and ascribe worth based on standards that exclude energy! Value is subjective; it is based on what anyone is willing to consider in exchange for something else they have. Worth is intrinsic; it is the true measure of something based on real and fundamental factors. Price equals value is a shortsighted and simplistic economic myth. A "value proposition" in marketing is a concise statement of actual benefits. What cannot be bought or purchased like air, eco-systems, forests, rain, sun and water are considered extrinsic externalities. These forms of energy are not given a "market price" until we exploit them and extract value out of them. The rain forests become more valuable as we chop them down. The oceans, mountains and valleys grow in price, value and worth as we extract the foods, fruit, metals, minerals, oil and other resources for our benefit from them. The energy already in them is not usually priced. The energy required to "rape" and use them for our purposes, good or bad, is the energy that's priced in. Even unseen energy has value and sooner or later we will pay the cost for ignoring it. Does the outrageous rising cost of potting soil and peat moss reflect the ongoing deforestation in the Brazilian wilderness?

SCIENCE AND SPIRIT IS NOT A PARADOX

​We live in highly scientific and technical world. As a result, we are continually being bombarded with numerous emerging technologies. Unfortunately, our oldest and most powerful technology is still being underutilized. There is a scientific and technical side to faith as well as a spiritual side to science. Although most people separate the two, they are intricately intertwined together. The "power of mind" connects us to God, the universe and one another. The application of science describes the energy or force behind that connection. Faith is not only a technique but also a technology that ALWAYS works, because faith is. When we apply or exercise a faith that does not work, it means that we are not utilizing real faith. We do not need faith to work (it always does) we need to work faith! The "way" faith works has never changed. There is a scientific and technical side to religion as well as a spiritual side to science. Although most people separate the two they are intricately intertwined together. Everything in the universe exists in a manner that at some minuscule level impacts EVERYTHING else. Jesus introduced and represented a revolutionary scientific way of thinking, saying and doing. Some of the same results achieved by science and medicine today were reportedly demonstrated by Jesus in a day and time where superstitious, mysticism and magical beliefs were logically infused with science and religion.  The scientific method is an empirical method of acquiring knowledge that has characterized the development of science since at least the 17th century. Most of our learned beliefs are supported by tradition, superstition, science or religion. But in reality, it's not the system we use as much as the accuracy of the source. The murky relationship between the unknown, the mysterious, the mystical and the magical can lead us to questionable and irrational conclusions.

ALL ENERGY HAS SPIRITUAL ORIGIN

Picture
Although many people's present mindset is stuck on separating science and spirit, we should see them as connected in terms of energy. Thought is a form of energy and spirit is that energy's source. Science is the systematic study of behaviors and the structures they affect. Yes, we should be able to say that science is actually the proof that the spirit world does exist! It stands to reason that if these two realms exist then at some level they interact and are interrelated. Our aim and desire here is an attempt to describe, not define, some of those relationships. We must first accept that there is no such thing as an accident or random event. Destiny, fate, happenstance, karma and luck appear to operate and are embraced as a means to define and clarify what we cannot explain. The application and manifestations of science and spirit are interrelated. All things are interrelated and occur coincidentally in life. Pandemics, epidemics and other endemic characteristics are not random events that occur without warning. They are a by-product of societies self-inflicted vulnerabilities. It is the structures and systems of our functioning society that gives rise to the very existence of most of our man-made calamities. Think about it; without cars and trucks there would be few traffic accidents and without planes there would be no plane crashes, but without modern transportation the distribution of food, goods and services would be dramatically different. Overall, we cannot say that it would be better or worse, only different. This is why it is important to consider the effect of our advancements on the delicate balance within this shared bubble called the atmosphere. It always comes down to sowing and reaping, also known as cause and effect. We share in the cause of whatever affects us all. There is a science to spirituality which integrates all of the individual sciences into a unified system that describes our relationship in the universe. Conventional science falls short of defining paranormal phenomena and inexplicable mysteries. Even scientist are forced to use descriptive labels like "Black Holes" when the evidence only reveals a "blank slate."  

There is a science and order to every dimension of the universe including the spiritual realms. What we need to understand is that not only are we subject to the laws of these realms, but we can also use these laws to manipulate effects and operate cause in our realm. If we understand what is behind all universal order and how it operates, we can add our individual patch to the quilt of life. With this insight we have the capacity to create our own virtual garden of Eden. We can now work with the laws of cause and effect which are at the core of all phenomena. Only by embracing this truth will we be able to make scientific sense out of how spiritual cause manifests natural effects

Let's face it, order is not accidental. Either there is or was an author, force, energy, plan, purpose and power behind life; or it's just a random, arbitrary, indiscriminate and haphazard occurrence of events that operate without connection or control. We believe that nothing happens in a vacuum except creation. Everything that exists is partially defined by its relationship to everything else. Is it possible that our individual freedom of thought, expressions and actions considered personal choice effects more than just ourselves? Does not the operation of the universe effect all the species within it? Isn't it obvious that there are other realms besides the one we exist in? It is not unusual to acknowledge the existence of spirit. Both religion and superstition have a spiritual component to them. Our belief in a spiritual realm may be impacted by experiences, indoctrination or other non-empirical evidence. However, somehow, we intuitively believe in it. Most energy is invisible. Light travels in waves and is one of the few forms of energy visible to the human eye. Gravity, magnetism, warmth, cold, wind, electricity, pressure, sound and radio waves are all evidenced by their physical manifestations but cannot be seen.

An idea has no physical form until it is expressed verbally, embraced in 
our invisible minds and acted upon. History has shown us that a thought or point of view transmitted from a single individual can influence, contaminate and/or permeate the consciousness of multitudes. It is impossible to kill a thought or destroy an idea. We may refute, reject or suppress them by burning books and murdering people but the idea can live on and inspire a nation. All of creation is a manifestation of spiritual energy exercised in the natural realm of existence. Whether we believe in or acknowledge a source or originator of that manifestation makes no difference. The creation is the evidence of the creator. All perceptible existence must have a source of origin, it is undeniable. If we can identify with the "power of words" to cause mental anguish, the "power of stress" to cause physical illness and the "power of weather" to affect our mood; surely, we can relate to the "power of speech" to create matter.
​

Although we "ARE" spiritual beings we tend to operate in the realm or state we perceive ourselves to be in. No physical evidence or logical reasoning has power to change an embraced belief. What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away. The things we embrace that "appear" to be, regardless of fact, seemingly feel better then believing in invisible forces. Some of our beliefs arise from illogical conclusions not facts. Only enlightenment can conquer embraced deception. Awareness precedes illumination. Our familiar beliefs create credible, even if incorrect, comfort zones. The lowest hanging fruit is the first to be picked. Meaning the simplest solutions get first consideration. Could this be why so many of us seem to pay so little attention to our spiritual faculties. We were birthed as spiritual beings but instead of nurturing it we abandoned it.  We primarily focus on touch, taste, smelling, seeing and hearing, our visible tangible sensory faculties. We use our intellectual invisible intangible faculties like perception, reason, intuition, memory, will and imagination but they work in the background. When we bring them to the forefront we become in a better balance with the universe. Energy is developed, directed, restrained and trained. All of our energy from eating and appetites to cravings and desires must be trained. Everything from anger to sexual energy must be contained, trained and released properly. Ethical, legal and moral standards are designed to set boundaries.  Remember all people are spiritual beings having a human experience though a physical body with their intellectual minds. There are rules and standards that we must learn and obey to correctly govern energy of all kinds. 

WHAT DO WE CALL ENERGY?

Picture

THE MIXUP WITH THE MARVELOUS MAKEUP OF MANKIND 

We were not designed to die or built to break. The unfortunate fact is that we poison ourselves and our planet with our own products. We practice sin and produce stress through disobedience and rebellion. This is just the spiritual side of the coin. Today's trend is to trust more and more in science and technology and less and less on natural and supernatural assistance. It's not unusual, from day to day to hear or read about some breakthrough or promising discovery. Discovery means we just found out, not that it never existed before we gained the knowledge of it! Believing predominately in man's limited ability to conquer all of his problems erodes our faith in God. We are being bombarded with information and knowledge that does not include or even remotely mingle God into the mix. Many people no longer really by practice believe in God. Most accept the concept of a God and deceive themselves into thinking that such a process amounts to faith in God. "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient." This verse and those that follow indicate that as free moral agents God allows those who rejected Him to follow their own sinful inclinations that results in a perverted mindset. This level of corruption permeates the policies and thought processes that we have​, and project from one to another. This principle plainly presents itself in today's practices. Many people have a form of Godliness; they go to church on Sundays and give to charities, but in their personal practices they remain insulated and isolated from the real battle.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT SPIRIT IS

Energy of all kinds enables. Wind, rain, lighting and all atmospheric conditions in general carry the energy of weather. Water, rocks and the complex mixture of what we call soil have kinetic and potential energy. Sometimes the narrow definitions of science miss the full spiritual significance of what energy is, where it comes from and how it actually operates. We have learned how to harness energy and use it for lighting, transportation and all types of work. We have broken it down into its most basic components and somehow feel and think that we have absolute control over it until we don't. Energy, life and spirit are inseparable even if we define them individually. As such any explanation regarding how they interact is limited by our finite minds. We can only describe the working of spirit, not define it. Many scholars and scientist choose to ignore the spiritual aspect of our existence due to this fact. Never-the-less pretending something does not exist does not negate it. Biology, gravity and the spiritual realm continue in perpetuity whether we believe in them or not. They cannot be defied only applied into our existence. Consciousness is much more than awakened awareness; it encompasses our spiritual connectivity to all of life. Both the financial and liquor industries have adopted the use of spiritual metaphors to describe the characteristics and conditions associated with various behaviors and effects. Animal spirits was a term used by John Maynard Keynes in his 1936 book The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money. The terminology described the instincts, proclivities and emotions that he believed influenced human behaviors. He measured the values in terms of consumer confidence. This is the same factor that influences investor behavior and market dynamics. They also say that such spirits often drive market trends and volatility. The term "wine and spirits" has its roots in ancient civilizations. The term "spirits" is derived from the Latin word "spiritus," which means breath or essence. It was once used to describe the concentrated essence of distilled alcohol. Many people have a limited understanding of what energy is. This in turn carries over to the understanding of spirit. Most energy is invisible! Air, electricity, gravity, light, magnetism, moisture, temperature, thought and wind are all examples of energy. we cannot physically see them, but we can feel them and/or observe their effects. Spirit carries the same characteristics. In fact, energy and spirit are so interrelated that we will not find one without the other. There is a "science of spirit," an etiquette throughout the invisible empire of intangible "spiritual" substance. This energy of life contains the glue which holds everything together. Spirit like gravity has a force; like magnetism its presence has a pull. We can sense and feel it like wind, and it can spread like fire in the shapeless way of flowing water. Putting all of these attributes together barely describes SPIRIT. Whether we acknowledge it or not the foundation of LIFE is spirit. The underlying force behind our attitudes and behaviors are spirit. Our attitude towards, behavior by, feelings about and learned life habits affects the spirit in which life is perceived to occur. Many of us have "pet peeves." These are the nuanced and particular personal continual annoyances that we hate to indulge under any conditions. We treat them with our own brand of righteous indignation privately and sometimes publicly. Most of us adopt these "spirits of intolerance" unknowingly and nurture them over a lifetime. Spirits can often be discerned and categorized by the behaviors they manifest within the people they inhabit. The "spirit of arrogance" often accompanies those who rule under the culture on unchecked authority. Bullies generally project a "spirit of dominance and superiority" often distinguished by calling other people names or degrading them in ways that demean them. Leaders can easily be seduced through their egos by such spirits. Many succumb to a spirit of belligerence and narcissism that swallows them up in pride. This is why we all must control our own spirit in line with ethical, legal, moral and spiritual standards! Our individual spirit, "the spirit of man," represents the energy of our own personal consciousness. We are obligated to control and regulate the "spirit" of our thinking, feelings, emotions and behaviors according to higher standards; not necessarily those of our own! 

THE ARTIFICIAL, NATURAL, SUPERFICIAL, SUPERNATURAL & SYNTHETIC

Picture
Everything is real but everything is not natural. In the world of spirit and substance there is a category we call artificial. Behaviors and things deemed as artificial are made or produced by human beings rather than occurring naturally or normally. Anything that is contrived, false or insincere can qualify as being artificial. The word "artificial" is an adjective that we use to describe but not fully define something. We must be careful how we apply it. Something is natural if it follows a "normal," standard or usual course of coming into action or existence. Nature, which does not include mankind is natural. The world is filled with superficial as opposed to sincere actions, affirmations, beliefs, images, symbols and substances. On the surface they appear to be genuine but in reality, their existence lacks depth and may even be fake. What we call the "supernatural" is often described as an event, manifestation or occurrence that cannot be explained. The supernatural is usually attributed to some energy or force that defies natures' laws and goes beyond scientific understanding. A "synthetic" is and can be described as a proposition or substance made up or manufactured by other than natural means. Synthetics imitate and can be a substitute for food, light, logic and materials. Synthetics are usually engineered for specific qualities and purposes like polyester in fabrics and acrylic for glass. The use of plastics has had an effect on almost every aspect of manufacturing, shipping and storage known to man. There are very few things that have not been modified and reinvented. We believe that it is important to maintain some traditional standards that hold the line when it comes to artificial food artificial intelligence and artificial light! Yes, it's real but is it natural, superficial, supernatural and or synthetic?

WISDOM LIVES BETWEEN CLARITY & WHAT WE CALL CONTRADICTIONS

Picture
Many people are superstitious whether they acknowledge it or not. Superstitions generally fit a belief in something we want to believe. Superstitions can be based on experiences or teachings interpreted as actual and factual. We all tend to form beliefs based off of experiences that are correlated and embraced as fact. Our interpretations may or may not be accurate, but most of the time they are accepted and discussed as if they really are. Wisdom lives between clarity and contradiction, and when it is ignored, anarchy fills that gap! Neuroscience is still searching for answers as to how we exist, operate and think. As limited beings with unlimited potential, will what we call contradictions eventually evolve into understanding? What is mind over matter? How can a people who believe in a government of the people by the people and for the people stand by quietly when even pastors protesting peaceably in public can be shot in the head with "non-lethal" ammunition? Where do the preachers of these "Mega-churches" stand? Was not JESUS, as a political prisoner, executed by the government under the watchful approval and eyes of his days religious leaders? Do we limit our outcry to only those not murdered by political sanction or government officials? Ethical, legal and moral principles do not have to align with political affiliation. As a matter of fact, they rarely if ever do. The reluctance to label "sin" as "sin" and the negligence to address the realm of "spirit," clouds and obscures most of us from the realities that truth seeks to reveal to us all. Wisdom lives between clarity and contradiction, and when it is ignored, anarchy fills that gap! Is not murder under any guise (appearance, form, likeness, presentation, semblance, shape) is still murder? Whether it's done to attendees or speakers at concerts and gatherings or disarmed and helpless enemy combatants, what is the rationale for murder? When and where does ideology trump humanity? When justification becomes subjective, in essence aren't we saying that anyone can have their own truth and that anything goes? "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things." That's the way the Bible puts it. The common man puts it this way. "What's good for the goose is good for the gander." This is the idiom regular people use. The phrase states that the same rules or standards should apply to everyone. It is often used in discussions about justice, equity, and fairness. This saying highlights the need for consistent treatment across different individuals or groups. For example, if one person is allowed certain privileges, others in similar situations should be granted the same privileges. Pardons and privileges differ from forgiveness and reconciliation. WAKE UP! The spiritual aspect of our existence does not conform to the imbalances we perpetrate and practice in our irrational minds. Wisdom lives between clarity and contradiction, and when it is ignored, anarchy fills that gap! Wisdom exists in multiple forms. It is spiritual and has a distinct footprint. Reading through Proverbs chapter 8 and 9 gives us a glimpse into the way wisdom works.

THINGS BREAK: UNDERSTANDING SIN, sickness,
MEDICINE
, TREATMENTS & HEALING

Something is broken and we broke it. The fix cannot be applied without a fight. Although we were setup to succeed, our unintended failure was designed and engineered by forces and powers that took advantage of our very own nature. This is what is being exploited by "the prince of the power of the air." The missing link in the puzzle that many have failed to see is that sin preceded the advent of sickness. Now we know why we get sick although we were made so perfectly. Ever since sickness afflicted man, remedies and treatments of all sorts have been applied. Like everything else sickness has been exploited for monetary gain and profit. The history of medicine involves the study, documentation and evolution of practices and treatments purported to heal. This also includes their accumulated knowledge over time. There is no greater call or cause of concern than dealing with and remedying issues associated with the human condition. Applied sciences that deal specifically with illnesses using medicinal, surgical and therapeutic methods. So many remedies abound that governments have been forced to categorize and regulate the methods and the practitioners involved. Yet the spirit of the "snake oil salesman" has even infiltrated Big Pharma. The love of money has no boundaries! The human body and all of nature is so vast that without segmenting it into multiple disciplines we would not have achieved the limited level of knowledge and understanding available today. Breakthroughs and new discoveries have and will continue to abound. Medical and mental issues have spiritual aspects to them. Little talked about "transfer addictions" are real. However, some of the same and even additional maladies continue to surface plaguing mankind. ​​In some cases, people with multiple ailments need to see individual doctors that specializes in one discipline of medicine. Sometimes the medications individually prescribed may collectively cause other issues. This is why any general or primary care physician or practitioner needs continual education. Health care providers have an ongoing duty, even beyond "the Hippocratic oath." to be aware of and informed about potential effects and interactions between various drugs and therapies. They should also be abreast of old or outdated practices along with new and current discoveries. Today's tunnel vision that sees only pharmaceutical and surgical solutions effectively denies natural and supernatural interventions. When did food, herbs and plants stop becoming sources of medicine? Why don't we realize that the difference between treatment and healing is the same as the difference between being a continuous customer or temporary patient? What is wrong with revisiting, reevaluating and updating medical and nutritional guidelines established decades ago? How many of us think that the COVID pandemic is over? Why won't the powers that be admit to their mistakes? There are still multiple investigations and questions regarding the safety of modRNA vaccines for COVID-19 which technically are a pro-drug gene therapy encased in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). This was the solution they came up with rather than natural naked mRNA. These (lipid nanoparticles) or LNPs allow the injection unfettered access through most tissues and organs. This including our brains and the bone marrow. The mRNA injection is further modified (referred to as modRNA) by the substitution of all of the uridines for N1-methylpseudouridine (m1Ψ), in order to better stabilize the modRNA and also cloak it from the immune system. We realize that much of these preceding sentences are full of technical jargon, but what this all means is that they engineered a solution to a problem they created by "playing god" with a virus that got away from them and a solution that has many side effects! When we investigate the past, we can incorporate it into the present and include it into the future. Why do we continue to ignore data that contradicts our present profit driven system? Lifestyle and nutrition are just as important as medicines, pills, potions and surgery. Investigating old home remedies is cheaper than deploying most of the new drugs we develop. Between A.I., computers and modern science, the conspiracy to keep us sick makes sense. Is this why for over ten years they have not updated the recommended daily amount of vitamin D most people need? We know that this topic is getting old, but our research repeatedly shows that the majority of people need more than twice as much as they're getting.​

THE VITAMIN d MISTAKE!!!!!

UNDERSTANDING WHAT MONEY IS

Picture
EXCHANGE is the way of EXISTENCE and LIFE! Anything that is, subsists or has "being"; does so in light of its value compared to something else. Money is loaned and traded into existence. Although it is named and delineated in terms of bills, dollars, marcs, pesos, ruppe, yen and other names they simply represent the power of its effects. The idea that we can represent an action, idea, object or process in a tangible form of exchange is money. Effort or work is a form of energy that although intangible can be measured. Today money is used as that measure. Money is a shared contract that allows a medium of exchange of an agreed stored value. People often misinterpret and fail to understand the scripture that says "for the love of money is the root of all evil." Money represents commerce control and exchange. Money, commonly called "fiat" is neither good nor evil. It is simply a means of exchange. Modern day money is created through debt transactions. Today's debt-based financial system operates on the principle that money is created through debt transactions. The system allows banks to create new money out of thin air by lending to borrowers, who then repay the loans. This results in a money supply that constantly expands, and contracts based on lending and borrowing activities controlled by those on top. This creates a cycle of debt accumulation, where the total debt in the economy grows, leading to potential economic instability and challenges in managing the financial system. The system's reliance on debt also raises concerns about the sustainability of the economy and the potential for wealth redistribution favoring those with access to credit. Today money is hoarded and manipulated in multiple ways. The "Billionaires Boys Club," big banks, governments, hedge funds, insurance companies, private equity, venture capital and other financial institutions jockey for control at their level and pass it down to the next level. The spirit of this system has permeated today's society. What's left is passed down, reallocated and distributed among the constituents at that level to be coveted and divided among them. This cycle continues to dwindle downstream. Whatever is left get divided among those that have the least and need the most. Money is a vehicle of influence and power. The spirit in which it is used is indicative of its effect. Everything has its own "spirit" including money. By spirit we mean "attitude of behavior," "purpose of being" or "character of cause and effect." All of existence, animate and inanimate, contains some essence of spirit. A spirit attached to an inanimate object can also be described as the energy of its existence. Abusing anything or any substance from alcohol to the ground we walk on has consequences. We cannot just randomly abuse nature. Every aspect of nature has spirit. Nature includes all of the collective physical world. This means that plants, animals, the landscape and all the features and products of the earth have spirit. Does this imply that the energy of spirit exists in man-made machines like cars, motors, refrigerators and the myriad of devices we use on a daily basis? Do they demonstrate attitude, individuality, mood and quirks? Can A.I., computers, controllers and robots express "being" and consciousness of spirit? How many of us have owned a temperamental device that works sometimes or requires a certain methodology to get it to operate? Consciousness is a spiritual attribute which process we can observe through monitoring electrical impulses and motion. The billions of neurons in our brains send signals throughout the tissues in our bodies which we "describe" as consciousness. If we create or invent things, do we pass any of our energy into them? Let's assume we do! If so, can we control or harness this energy to operate productively only? Let's conclude that we better!

FINDING OUR PLACE AND PLAYING OUR POSITION

Every individual's world view is shaped by their experiences and exposure to various aspects of life. The human condition or predicament is easily observed by anyone willing to pause and take a break to consider the events and various forks in the road that molded us. Limited knowledge yields limited insight and narrows our perspectives. Growing and learning should lead us to discover more and more of what we don't know. When ignorance is embraced, its by-product can yield intelligence. Intelligence is not the property of the intellectual, it is the tool and trade of the proletariat. The proletariat is a term that refers to a social class of wage-earners whose primary economic value is defined by the power of their labor. This class of people usually lack the economic and political status to effect meaningful change without their joint, collective and united energy that can influence and threaten an establishment's existence and wealth. The proletariat's main weapon is control, influence or ownership of some aspect of the commerce process. Traditionally the proletariat exchanges their control of labor to survive. This bit of leverage has always been threatened by automation. "The Luddites," a group of 19th century textile workers went as far as destroying the machines that had automated processes and replaced them and their jobs. Today computer technologies, A.I. and robots have emerged as a modern threat. Historically, the proletariat has been specifically associated with the lowest economic and social classes in society. People like artisans, builders, carpenters, cleaners, craftsmen, electricians, plumbers and small tradesmen add to the composition of this class. Marxist theory describes the proletariat as the majority of society. The bourgeoisie own the means of production. Overall, the term "proletariat" encapsulates the larger portion of people engaged in unskilled and low skilled labor. This is a class of people with limited resources that have a limited vision of how the overall system is operating. Spiritually, the individual positions we play are mission and purpose oriented. We often refer to the D.I.P. (design, intent and purpose) of all things, and within that the scope of its mission. The mission (duty) of everything that exists is to return to its source. The design of every creature or substance's quest is to return in a better condition than its original created form. The concept goes right along with making our world a better place by having passed through this life.​ The individual molecules of water gather together and recycle themselves in clouds, lakes, oceans, rain, rivers and streams. No individual drop is more significant than any other. Each of us has a job to do that involves working our way back to the source of our creation through the proper exit door. We entered into this life from our mother's womb clean. When we exit back to the source of our origin, we are solely responsible for the state of our being! No one is born as a criminal; we pick things up along the journey. The goal is to be as clean on the exit as we were at the entrance. This is not hard to do when we see the BIG picture and refuse to get caught up in individual miscellaneous moments. 

UNDERSTANDING THE SYSTEMS

Picture
A system is any group of things working together operating on a set of principles that produce and promote a governing or prevailing ideology or structure. Everyone and everything are a part of one or more systems whether they know it or not. The current systems of commerce and governance are not in sync with the natural, social and spiritual systems humanity was designed to exist in. This disconnect between what should be cohesive and conjoined entities is behind many of the issues we face today. There is no such thing as a totally independent part in an interdependent system. The logic of separation is a hoax! Although life can be broken down into multiple disparate units, The world functions as an overall composite of systems that rely on one another. The traditional system although already corrupt is transitioning again at an accelerated pace. We are witnessing the death of the career ladder before our very eyes. Human labor, that is manhours of productivity, is rapidly being replaced and substituted by algorithms, AI, apps, computerized innovations and other forms of technological breakthroughs. There are a growing number of AI agents being developed for sale to multiple industries. Once adopted, they can easily replace coders, entry level clerks, receptionists, researchers and a host of other positions traditionally designed to refine skill sets and advance peoples value through experience.

The system we operate under and embrace falsely reifies structures that we are embracing from individual preferences based on greed and selfishness. The idea that it is better (more profitable) to promote monocropping rather than grow things in a diversified system that supports both us, pollinators and other organisms is based on greed. There's enough research to support the fact that we could feed more people with highly diversified acre size farms than through the current methodology of large monocropping. This requires a totally different mindset and financial incentive that blockchain technologies could accommodate. Today, the strategic manipulation of economic, institutional and political power as a new monopoly, has effectively changed the way we do business. The quote "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely," is attributed to Lord Acton. It expresses the idea that as a person's power increases, their moral sense diminishes. Nature's systems do not concentrate power to one species or one tier of existence. Balanced systems dilute and distribute power that keep the entire system in check.

EVERYTHING IS PART OF A SYSTEM

THE CULTURE/SPIRIT OF SYSTEMS AND THE PERSONALITIES THAT DRIVE THEM

It's hard to appreciate the value of systems without understanding that life in and of itself is built upon them. We are obligated and responsible for abiding with, honoring, maintaining, protecting and upgrading them. It's all about systems! The list is endless, so here are a few vital ones. Agricultural systems, biological systems, body systems, climate systems, communication systems, ecosystems, educational systems, financial systems, healthcare systems, justice and legal systems, operating systems (computers), political systems, prison systems, solar systems and weather systems. Each of these systems impact more than just the arena they function in. Weather can affect mood; education can affect earnings, and politics can affect morals. Systems carry spirit. Their characteristics extend into our thinking, beliefs and actions. Systems theory is the practice of modeling the behavior of systems. Most systems tend to have an equilibrium whereby competing forces keep one another in balance. Today the term "systemic risk," generally applies to financial institutions. It is the risk of collapsing an entire financial system or market. It results from the interconnectedness of financial institutions. This is where the failure of one or more seemingly insignificant companies or a specific part or pillar, triggers a cascading domino effect of failures. Without major interventions they usually cause widespread financial instability and devastating economic downturns. Economist have concluded that other than natural disasters, the five main contributors to financial systems collapses are interconnectedness, over-leveraging, risky practices, economic disruptions and regulatory lack or lapses.
​
There are many other both man-made and natural systems subject to the same conditions. Behind every system there is a culture. A culture is a "way." It is a belief, custom and tradition that operates in the "way" we function and think. Culture is the "way of life" that groups of people establish and accept as their way they do things. This implies ethical, legal, moral, spiritual and traditional values determine their sense of right and wrong. Culture in the form of spirit encompasses and is a part of every kind of system. Business or company culture speaks to the shared values, beliefs, and behaviors shaping how workers interact among themselves, rivals and visitors. Cultures contain dynamics that can be spread, accepted and assimilated by others. Like a contagion and virus or like a belief and teaching once a culture is adopted it becomes a part of that system. It's hard to say whether the systems are the creators of the cultures or if the culture infiltrates the systems. However, one thing for sure is that "spirit" inhabits both of them. A culture allows for various types of expressions, and a system provides the conduit and vehicle to manifest them. Spirits are always at work. There are spirits that take advantage of our temperaments, moods and impulses. We can see and accept them or ignore and deny them. They manifest themselves in the reaction's, rants and raves of those in positions of leadership. Stress will generally summons spirits that might not have surfaced to manifest under ordinary conditions. Like liquor, stress has a way of loosening a tongue, amplifying a reaction or retreating from a duty.

IT'S EASIER SAID THAN DONE, ISN'T IT?

Picture
Thinking saying and doing can be called "the triad of a procession" from formation to implementation. This process has three definite steps that each require different types and amounts of energy. The thought process is often as complicated as the implementation process and sometimes even more so. The logic that some people embrace is as nonsensical as expecting monetary gain using a wishing well. Luck beckons us to throw our coins of lesser value into a park fountain rather than accumulating and saving them. Superstitious people are sophisticated gamblers. Believing in luck is illogical. Casinos and lotteries take advantage of our ignorance. Our country claims to stand on Christian principles. Can we turn a blind eye to the teachings of the Bible, Jesus or moral religious authority? Although some of our religious institutions have fallen short of their calling, we are all responsible for maintaining the moral compass. Our spiritual constitution called the bible.is the world's systemic balance. Jesus called out the religious institutions of his day for their hypocrisy and died for it. Martin Luther called out the institutions of his day and almost met the same fate. Each did it by citing the pure and true written word and holding the powers that be accountable to it. The perspectives these spiritual leaders delivered included the moral, legal, and ethical aspects of the matter. They took their authority from and sided with the tenants of the Bible! We all know that every coin has two sides, but two wrongs don't make a right! Truth may be hidden or suppressed over time, but truth is not hard to find. We can concoct a narrative that colors its context or ignore it, but we cannot change it. The champions of truth apply fact without fear or favor. Those who pervert truth pretend to stand for it by taking a side. ​

OUR MISSION: SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER

​“Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.” Choosing a position or taking a side regardless of the consequences or results locks us into the evil that men do. Committing an evil act for good cause sanctions atrocities. Systems by design should set limits and enforce standards even at the expense of failing to achieve specific objectives. In some systems our voice of acceptance or disapproval serves as a limiting factor. Silence is not an option. We either approve or are in opposition to any specific act or general actions through sanctions. We have the power to pronounce sentence through our speech. By saying nothing and not questioning any system, we weaken it by our inaction. Speaking truth to power does not only refer to politics. Speaking truth to power is simply calling right, "right" and wrong, "wrong." The saying "see something say something" only makes sense when there's a standard to maintain. The zeitgeist or "Spirit of The Day" is aggression, division and war. This is a contagious ever spreading spirit that we are involved with. It's obvious but many of us choose blindness. We would know and should know but don't know because it feels better not to know. So now we know! Once knowledge is gained it cannot be unknown. We must be careful because the systems we fail to regulate will eventually consume us too!  The truth isn't tricky. Sometimes the truth "appears" boring, so much so, that many of us would actually prefer entertaining a lie. Much of today's entertainment indulges deceit and tolerates mendacity (falsity). The truth will make us free but often it will piss us off first. We generally reject truth when it contradicts our beliefs, feelings or teachings. The Son can set us free, but we will often have to unlock the chains binding us once he supplies the key. There is a spirit (approach, attitude, personality) adept at talking about and around truth without ever speaking truth directly. This "spirit of deception" is skilled in addressing issues by operating through abstractions. This spirit is adept at skillfully using all-inclusive glittering generalities, round-about depictions and vague descriptions. 

OUR MISSION: SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER

OPENING THE CAN

STUDY THE LIE AND THEY WILL TELL YOU MORE LIES. STUDY THE TRUTH AND YOU WILL RECOGNISE THE LIES WHEN THEY COME. ​DON'T GET IT TWISTED! BY RIGIDLY TAKING A SIDE, WE CREATE A DIVIDE. THE POLARIZATION OF THE PEOPLE AND THE PROLETARIAT HAS BEEN PLANNED. IT IS EASIER AND MORE PROFITABLE TO DIVIDE AND CONQUER THEN IT IS TO ADDRESS AND RESOLVE MOST ISSUES. MOST CONFLICTS OF INTEREST ARE PROFIT DRIVEN THROUGH APATHY, GREED AND SELFISHNESS. "FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL: which while some covet after, THEY HAVE ERRED FROM THE FAITH, AND PIERCED THEMSELVES THROUGH WITH MANY SORROWS." 

​Focusing solely on falsehoods, disinformation, deceptive people AND systems CAN only lead US deeper into a web of deceit. WHEN WE operatE in A framework, designed to obscure rather than enlighten, WE BECOME THE VICTIMS OF IT.
​
​By diligently seeking and understanding fundamental truths (whether in logic, science, reliable history, or moral principles), WE build a strong foundation. This clarity allows US to quickly identify inconsistencies, contradictions, and manipulation when WE encounter new information. our knowledge of what is correct makes deviations from the truth obvious.

We are dealing with obesity by making fat fashionable. We are exalting fame as if it is an important achievement. We have placed fortune and riches above peace and prosperity. We have placed pleasure and sex above morals and piety. We feel okay purchasing the latest handbags and phones valued at thousands of dollars while "seasonally" providing a meal or two from the overflow of our abundance. We have made heroes of sports figures rather than valiant first responders. We are creating polished but impersonal, almost perfect articles, blogs, books, documents, newsletters and reports using A.I. instead of human creativity. Over 80% of college students enlist A.I. in their assignments. We are not cleaning up our act by substituting one addiction for another. We celebrate Holy days (HOLIDAYS) a few times a year to ease our guilty consciences. We make profit from medicine and provide sick care based on economic status. Yet we spend billions on satellites, space exploration, competitive technologies and war. The can is Pandora's box! If we do not get the picture our selective blindness will soon get to us.
