I believe in both of those, I've seen them, there just remain a huge amount
of "spiritual leaders" at the top of almost every "belief system" in the
world that can produce neither.

There are those amongst us; I'll be easy on this one, that actually and
strongly pray (not religion either), for our demise or a segment or portion
of mankind. This is not meant to form a conclusion that our present enemies
are doing this-it is only presented here to show that each individual is
capable of either light or complete darkness.

I know those beings.  Since I was a baby they've tried to eliminate me for
some odd reason.  Hilarious stuff they pull.  Delusional psychotics who were
actually gullible enough to overestimate both their individual and
collective powers.  But there is an entire thesis attached to this that I
just don't have time for now.  I use their prayers for my footstool when I
am weary.

Anything in between-some of this and some of that, is only normal and in
many circumstances is a controlled reaction to a perception and is a part of
a human-being.

And somewhere outside of that "normalcy" still lay The Ultimate Truth.   The
thing I am rather quite interested in on all levels at all times in all
circumstances.

Stepping somewhere and realizing that phenomena can happen is attuning
oneself to the earth's energy and her whispers. Other times, we are too

There might be something to that.

Listening!-now where have we heard this before? Listening to your still
small voice can work wonders. Being at the right place and listening to what
is asked of you, is another wonder. I still try to listen...
=======


Here's the drawback to that.  There are more than just one's "own still
small voice" hanging around in the ether, and around various individuals,
and for various reasons, and discerning the good voices from the bad voices
still remains, in many instances, beyond the wisdom of average mortals.  I
don't really have to read that preceding statement from books I might have
found on a dusty shelf, or guess at it, I live it each minute of my life, if
that is what one might refer to it at this time.  For those completely
unaware of another phenomenon occuring globally, I thought I would mention
that in each passing generation, for some time now, the Children of this
planet become more "psychic" with each passing moment.  There is certainly a
reason for that.  Just as there is certainly a reason for things like prozac
and ritalin in American School Systems.  There are indeed more things in
heaven, hell, and earth than meet the eye.  Discerning the realities from
the illusions, the lights from the darknesses, the good voices from the bad
voices, remains a seemingly unconquerable task within itself.  As my mother
was dying, she suddenly sat up and said "I see your aunt and uncle", I told
her that was probably ok as they were probably coming to guide her to the
other side, and with a look of horror and fright my mother replied "But
they're ghosts..!!", I didn't really know what to say, so I said something
like "Well, mother, there's lots of ghosts on the other side, if you see
your sister and her husband, my best advice is to just make sure they are
who they are presenting themselves as, and not an impostor".  I didn't
really know what else to say to my frightened dying mother.  I pass on the
same "instant advice" to every mortal I know.  If you are hearing voices or
seeing various "personages", ask to see their credentials before you do
their bidding, or take their advice.  Be sure.  Don't ask me how.  But do it
anyway.


========
To prevent kindness from shining through, with each of our reactions to
situations that we encounter, is not good because we are the same animal.
Only by mastering our lives by honoring our own situations, by acknowledging
that we have had a very hard time on this earth, and to remain focused on a
world where ALL beliefs, persuasions, and societies can and will melt
together in a common pot is a reachable and lofty ideal! 80% is better than
not trying at all!
==========


I liked the first part of that paragraph.  The 2nd part of that I will have
to continue to doubt.

While it is certainly a "lofty ideal" to hope and work for a planet where
"all beliefs, persuasions, and societies can and will melt together in a
common pot" remains rather unrealistic to someone like me, based on my
knowledge of the variations of beliefs, persuasions, and societies that
exist, and their vast differences, and that most of them have been trained
to hate, despise, and wish for the ruination of the person not only in the
next town, but entire civilizations of people around the world they don't
know hardly anything about, since they were children, by all their "belief
systems", "educational systems", "governmental systems", "societical
systems", "etc systems" that were in place in their individual locales long
before and at the time of their births.

If anything "cool" like that, for a good purpose, actually ever occured, it
will most likely happen FAR in The Future, but before it even had a chance
to gel, the world will begin running out of resources, and various diseases
and plagues will appear that humans won't have an inkling how to combat, not
counting all the vast pollutions of just about every ecological system that
has already occured and is ongoing at this very moment.

True, it's a great lofty ideal, it *does* give many people a tuning point, a
focus that they can actually hope for and reach for, but in all reality the
averages of it actually occuring someday on planet Earth are just about
exactly zero.

Sub-Translation:  The actual mathematical odds are that I will win the big
Lottery before such a thing occurs.




=======
Finally, to make sarcastic remarks about other people's belief system is to
be no better than people were during the dark ages, when baths were
considered evil and yet brown skinned island people were committed to the
art of performing brain surgery.
=======


I wasn't being sarcastic.

I was being deadly serious.

One of the main things that continues ripping various societies, races,
countries, etc, apart within and apart from each other, remains "Belief
Systems" that the basis for just about each of them requires "Faith" in
something that just about none of them, individually and collectively, could
actually prove in a million years.

We're barely even *escaped* "The Dark Ages" to begin with.

Even in America the brave, the free, the intelligent, the progressive, the
whatever shining hope of the world etc.

And one of the main reasons we *haven't* is because of "Faith-Based Belief
Systems".

Each individual is assimilated in their prospective countries, their
prospective races, their prospective religions, their prospective belief
systems, their prospective societies, their prospective educational systems,
their prospective governmental systems, their prospective all of their
systems, from the moment they are born.

All these various systems, and not all of them are "exactly alike", but
instead "world's apart" in many instances, have driven indelible fences
between us all for Centuries.

And remains one main reason we are in a LOT of the fixes we remain in Today
and have been in for a LONG time.  And remain extremely exploitable by The
Powers That Be who have knowingly and willfully exploited such differences
to their different profits throughout ALL the ages we have known.

True, I believe in letting whomever that wishes to believe in whatever they
actually wish to.

More power to The Individual.  That's what makes Life so interesting,
unique, and worth actually living sometimes, that we are NOT all alike.

And, true again, there have been and are SOME things that have been
*extremely* good, rewarding, healing, and etc that have come and do come
from various "faith-based belief systems".  (Let's clarify for the arena
again that just about all belief systems AND religions are "faith-based",
meaning one has to "believe" in something one can just about never prove on
any level to fully participate in any of them).

And, true again, there ARE some things which I, or others, cannot see, have
never seen, etc etc etc, that DO exist, whether in this plane, the ether,
the next world, or the 12 dimensions Einstein described before he went to
some of them.

I wasn't, again, trying for a moment to be "sarcastic" in my descriptions of
"faith-based religions or belief systems".  I was trying to point out that
millions have people have died because they exist.

And that, most likely, more people have been destroyed by them, than have
ever or will ever be "saved" by them.

Literally.

They're just dead.  Boom.  Gone.  Thank you faith-based religions and belief
systems.

Now, I hear someone say "Well, look, it's not the Systems, it's the people
who are weilding them".

That might just be true when I sit right down and think about it.

But it still remains a rather interesting FACT that a LOT of "faith based
belief systems/religions", if they ever actually had various "realities"
attached to them, a LOT of those realities have been lost in translation
over the centuries.

If ever they even existed as REALITIES to begin with.

And I can prove THAT just as easily as someone involved in a faith based
religion/belief system can unprove it.

The bottom line is that in just about ALL the faith-based religions/belief
systems, one must have "Faith" or "Belief" in something that one can most
likely never be able to prove in a million years.

That's almost like playing the roulette wheel in a casino if you want to
really play WHAT IS REAL AND WHAT IS NOT for a moment.

And I, personally, am strictly, at this late date, interested in something
called THE TRUTH.

And with a ZILLION "faith-based religions/belief systems" circling Planet
Earth, the Ultimate Odds Of Reality state that most likely MOST of them MUST
be incorrect, and only ONE correct, if even that.

Again, I wasn't being sarcastic, I'm trying to find THE TRUTH.

And MANY people involved in "Faith-Based Religions/Belief Systems" have no
concrete proof of something called THE TRUTH, and each time I ask them where
is THE TRUTH, their unanimous response has always been, is, and will always
be "Well, you just have to believe".

I believe in various things.  Gee, I even pray to various people when I say
my little prayers, lol.

I just quit playing Roulette, though, long long long ago.

And if one presents the relative logical comparison to someone about their
faith based religion/belief system and a roulette wheel, they are, for some
odd reason, offended.

I still fail to see the difference between the two.

In one instance you are betting $100 on a little ball that goes round and
round on a wheel to hit the number you have placed your money on.

In the other instance you are betting your Actual Soul on something that you
literally pre-know the actual Outcome of just as much as you know where that
little ball is going to stop.

When I just sit right down and think about it, Roulette sounds like much
more fun, and millions of people don't die from it Century after Century.




=======
Don't heed this narrative because it's here; more so try to lift your own
soul with more respect to a diverse planet and your own salvation.
=========


Good advice to lift one's soul.

As far as "respect to a diverse planet", I have plenty of that.  Most likely
more than tons of people sitting down the street.  I have forever.

I have just realized, at this late date, that although such diversity is,
again, something that makes Life itself so interesting, unique, and worth
living in the first place, that the exact diversity remains the cause of
millions of innocent people's unwarranted deaths.

They, collectively, and invidually, might truly have truly great diversities
running around, through, and inside of them, and some, hopefully, might even
actually be doing some Good.

But they remain, for the most part, especially within all their faith-based
religions/belief systems, only a pawn in the game that The Powers That Be
have played, manipulated, and won, throughout the Centuries, and up to this
very exact moment in Time.

A disaster.

I am playing for the soul of Mankind, the soul of Earth, and the soul of the
Universes.

And I just don't have time to coddle faith-based religions/belief systems,
when I already know each one is standing firmly on their own soapboxes
proclaiming to all the world that only they can be right.

Which, understandably, ultimately means, in Reality, that only One can be
"right", if even that.

Again, yes, such "diversity" does truly "make the world go around".

It also remains the knife at the throat of existence.

How ironic.

Kind of like fucking, for some people, is really fun.

But if you fuck too much, your dick falls off.  (Maybe...  :|  I don't
really know, I've never really tried it to see....)

Oh well, I've lost my thought on that thread when Lorraina Bobbit suddenly
entered my mind....     :/



======
What you build here is your own model that you take with you, my friend!
======


I have a sneaking suspicion that, even though I personally already know
there is an "afterlife" of SOME strange kind, that THIS, and what you do
NOW, is your once around the merry go round.

Most likely all the old "stories" of someone standing at the gates to the
afterlife with a scale who weighs your heart to see how much good or bad you
have done to see if you go to the good place or to the bad place might be
true for all I know.

But what do I really know about "such things".

Those statements, too, are nothing but "faith-based", learned from books,
from people who came before, from etc etc etc.

Another reason I sometimes equate "faith based religion/belief systems" with
a roulette wheel is ALL THE OTHER CREATURES ON EARTH EXCEPT MAN.

Only MAN sits around Century after Century after Century.

Pouring over dusty books they can never prove.

Jumping on higher and higher soap boxes.

Shouting to the People, to the Nations, to the Earth, to God Himself.

"We Know The True Way...........!!!!!!!!"


The Animals just build their houses, get food, teach their young how to
build houses and get food, and prepare for the summer and the winter.

MANKIND has actually fallen below the spiritual level of The Animals.

There is no longer a question in my mind about it whatsoever.

And his downfall emanated precisely from all his "faith-based
religions/belief systems", his dusty old books, his bigger and bigger soap
boxes, and his willingness to proclaim to all of the Universes that he is
right.

Always.

About everything.

And the people standing around the corner more than willing to take
advantage of it all for eons.


The Animals, in their meager simplicity, will continue to run circles around
him until the end of Eternity and beyond.


Live like you mean it.

Get the party started, I'm coming out.
