Enduring Incarnation

Every person who has ever lived upon the Earth has a personal story to tell. Of all that a person has experienced, or felt, or said, or done there will be a memory. There are even many facets of our existence here that we could never have been aware of in fine detail. And a person may exist in one of two states, they may enjoy a condition of consciouness or unconsciousness. When a person does experience the condition of unconsciousness they will not be aware of time passing or of any other experience. But even though we may not be aware, our personal memories continue to exist. As soon as a person is born into the world they become a part of Heaven; and the manifest Universe and Heaven are one in the same thing, and Heaven contains a memory of itself. Every personal story of mortal life becomes part of the story of Heaven, and the story itself may endure far longer than the physical body. Now it is probably true that we have all experienced a condition of unconsciouness during our lifetime. We become unconscious at times when we are sleeping, although dreaming may be a form of consciousness even if we do not remember the experience on waking. And its certainly true that many people have experienced a period of unconsciouness due to some physical trauma. Consciouness has generally been linked to brain function; however there is evidence to suggest that this should not be so. There have been numerous cases when a person has been revived from a near death experience and subsequently related a memory of some experience during that period of time. In many of these cases the person was known to be 'brain dead', which is to say that normal brain activity was undetectable. Now I don't know which is more remarkable, that anything could have been experienced at all OR the fact that a memory of the experience was formed. Enough of these cases have been reported to suggest that human consciouness may survive the death of the body, and many people have imagined a realm of unmanifest spirits. So long as the body exists then perhaps the awareness may exist as well; and in a sense the body will always continue to exist even as the substance becomes unformed into so much gas and dust. The physical substance of our flesh and bone is constantly being returned to the environment, and we continuously take in new substance from the world around us the whole time that we live. Some of that stuff that was once a part of my personal self is now in the mattress i sleep on; and some of myself is lost with every haircut and that loss is hardly ever a concern. All of that substance that has ever been part of my body has existed here on the Earth since the world was formed, its always been here long before I was formed, and all this stuff will continue to be part of the Earth long after I'm gone. If the stuff still exists, does that mean that I will still exist? And since the stuff has long been here as part of the Heaven, does that mean I have existed for as long as heaven? Where is my begining and where is my end; it appears that I have many beginings. The seed has the power to draw upon the environment all the substance required to create the form of a tree. And that tree may bear some fruit that I may have eaten, as the life of the tree became part of my life and the begining of the tree was a seed, that begining has become part of me as well. Therefore I think that manifestation is everything that matters, through manifestation we are married to eternity. I may die and pass away from the world and then I may become unconscious eventually; but I have passed this way and the Universe was moved in my passing, and the Universe remembers. So long as my memories endure its possible that I may be awakened once again. I would prefer that my existence not be governed by a principle of reincarnation, in order for reincarnation to work we must relinquish our memories and I don't like that. I prefer to believe in a principle of enduring incarnation.

A Basket Full of Life

The Earth is one great big living planet, and all the life therof is of a kind. All the living things on Earth bear certain similarities to one another. And it has long been a mystery as to wether or not the Earth is the only living world. Well perhaps it is not a very ancient mystery at that, the people havn't always known of the possibility of other planets. And while the many stars of the night sky have similiarities to our sun, it has not always been imagined that those distant stars and our sun are exactly the same thing. And so it has been a gradual developement over the past several centuries that we have become driven to find proof of life.

There are many people in the world today who support a maned mission to the planet Mars. Now there may or may not be evidence for life to be found there, and clearly if no evidence could be found by a maned mission the matter would still be inconclusive. The evidence we desire may exist there and still not be found, but if it does exist there today it will still be there to find in 100 years. And sending human beings off on an adventure of such a scale as this is certainly risky business. But there are some people alive in the world today who are driven to see this thing accomplished in their own lifetime. It is not good enough for those people to know that mankind's eventual journey to the red planet will be made, the matter is nearly inevitable.

But on the topic of life being found to exist elsewhere in our galaxy, it is not even neccessary to make the trip. It has become a fair certainty that evidence for life will be found with a telescope! And not simply life within our own solar system, but life on a planet circleing a distant sun. All we have to do is keep building our telescopes and the matter will eventually be resolved; it may even happen in my own lifetime, and its very likely to happen within the lifetimes of my children. The problem that has prevented us from seeing that distant planet directly is that a star's light is so glareingly bright that we can not discern the reflected light from a circling planet. But even so the fact that distant planets do exist has been directly observed by detecting a wobble in the parent star. All of those distant planets that have already been detected are rather large, on the scale of one or several jupiters, and of course these are not potential candidates for our kind of life. We need to observe the Earth sized planets and that's proven hard to do, but it is a problem that we may be able to overcome. If a rocky planet of Earth's mass can be observed directly then spectroscopic analysis may tell us what kind of atmosphere that planet has. And if oxygen is detected on such a distant planet, that is proof of life! Oxygen will ONLY be produced into a planet's atmosphere by the processes of life, and therefore the matter may be resolved conclusively.

And from this point i will divert from the topic of life to the topic of consciousness. I would like to prove conclusively that the creation of life and the creation of conciousness are not one in the same thing. In fact consciousness has no dependence on life, even though the formation life may depend on consciousness. Therefore I submit the statement that consciousness exists as a force of nature prior to the creation of life. Consciousness is a force like any other one of the forces of the Universe, like the force of gravity it pervades all matter and even the emptyness of space. And as a force of the Universe it interacts with the substance thereof, and not just the substance of life. Matter is a very peculiar thing, its questionable wether there is any real solidity to it. The volume of a single atom of substance is mostly empty space! And our science of modern physics has revealed a microscopic world of particles, layers upon layers of particles. And all of these most fundamental particles have many peculiar properties, it is even believed that there is a particle for every force. We have pryed a layer of particles out of the protons and neutrons and electrons that make up the basic building blocks of every chemical process. And all these sub-atomic particles only seem to exist in the natural world when we produce and observe them; although it is believed that such particles existed prior to the creation of matter within the first moments of the creation of our Universe. And our Universe does have a definate begining, a moment of birth in a sense. But in order for a solid particle to be produced it has to be detected, and conscousness is required to discern that solidity. The Universe was born in an instant and consciouness was born into it at the same moment. Without consciousness there could be no observer, and without the observer there could be no particles. But particles were produced and subsequently formed into the atoms of hydrogen and helium and perhaps some lithium that became the building blocks of stars and galaxies. And within the chemisty of stars all the heavier elements were formed and the pressure of light was produced. And the heavier elements being produced allows for planets and stars like ours to be produced.

Now its become thinkable that there may even be many more universes, there could be universes that exist and will never interact with our universe. We can imagine such a number of possible univereses that there could be many more much like ours where every possibility becomes realized. And the kindom of God has been described as a mansion of many rooms, and this universe may just be one room in the mansion. We may be forced to acknowledge the possibility of other universes, but it doesn't really matter what we imagine those universes to be like. For the moment and the foreseeable future we are confined to this Universe, this Universe is the only one that should really concern us. Now we must be forced to acknowledge that not only does our Universe have a definate begining, but the possibility that something preceeds it. And that one thing that preceeds the creation of our Universe is the force of consciousness, its source proceeds from outside the known universe. And that force of consciousness is the power and the presence of the one true and most high God. Therefore we live in God's presence at all times and we depend on that power in order to exist as individual persons.

All the forces of creation could have been balanced just a little bit differently, and if the balance of forces was anything other than what it is then the universe we observe around us would not be possible, we would not be possible. When the balance of the natural forces was determined, the possibility of life was also determined. But we should ask, did it really depend on someone making a decision? Is there a creator who chose the form that things should take, or was it just a roll of the dice that came out in our favor? In order for a decison to be made we would have to grant God a personality, but I believe instead that we should grant the Universe a personality. When the Universe was born then also a new peronality was born, a distinct individual with the capacity to experience itself and form memories and to be aware of those memories and have a mind to think. Here I have described the personality of Heaven, without saying much about what it is like. Of course I can not say much about what such a personality would be like, except that is has a complete memory of itself and has observed every process and event that has occured here in Heaven.

An uncountable number of stars and planets have formed and there are more personalitites in heaven. Each star or planet a distinct and unique individual, and we may never be able to discern that they have minds to think with, that they have an awareness to experience the Universe with. But here we are bound to planet Earth and we can not deny that there are many personalities in heaven. We observe the world around us and we observe that we are not the only observer here. Each one of us experiencing the Universe from a unique and limited perspective, we can not deny that the power of consciouness is at work in our world. And what exactly is this thing that wills and the substance of creation is moved and controlled by the power of a mind? If consciouness has no influence with matter then how do my fingers move to type out these words? The physical body of a human being is a large collection of living cells, and cells that move about within the body. Cells that form muscle that may be expanded or contracted according to a decision or a choice. And the indivudal cells come in many different flavors but they consist of atoms. Atoms arranged into a particular pattern, one single pattern is repeated many times over and the cell walls are formed. The substance of the Universe has obtained a very high degree of order in me, and that form depends on there being a diversity of chemical elements.
One single atom is a more or less formless thing, but put two or more of them together and they may take on a definate shape. And somehow or another it is this very peculiar arrangement of matter that brings the force of consciouness into bright and shining focus. But I submit again, the force preceeds the form.

Its just very hard to measure the force of consciouness directly, it can not be quantitized. And its very hard to observe how this force interacts with matter, but obviously it does. And if consciouness is a force which interacts with the substance of life, we should easily conclude that it interacts with all substance. There is nothing particularly special about the substance of one living body as say, compared to the substance of the whole Earth, except that it is particularly well formed. But its possible that a sizable quantity of mass makes up for the lack of fine form, and therfore a personality may be formed. The Earth itself has often been attributed with a personality and perhaps there is more to this idea than simply an enchanting fantasy. The Earth is both a planet and a living thing at the same time, if there is any kind of mind associated with our planet it should prove to be a very interesting mind. Ancient kings of the Earth have believed that the Stars were gods and that they could become stars. In the visions of christianity the stars are presented as both the angles and the demons of heaven. That there may be more personalities in Heaven than we find here on Earth is certainly not a new idea. But I believe there must be substance to a person, there can be no personality without substance. No personality may exist in an unmanifest condition, contrary to the beliefs of many people.

Packages of Time

A friend of mine was heard to remark that he wished there were packages of time that could be bought from the supermarket shelf, because he never had enough time.

And I told him that there really are packages of time on the supermarket shelves, because he was saving a tremendous amount of time by shoping at the store. If all of use were required to hunt and gather and plant in order to eat, then we really wouldn't have time!

But thats not the way the world works, the people do labor constantly. Money in a sense is the power to command another person's labors. All manufactured goods are valued almost entirely upon the time required to create those goods, and very little is the value of the actual materials. But even the most basic building materials must be wrought from the Earth and refined in order to be formed into something useful. And all that effort is the value of the thing. If I gave you the very same materials unformed, you would not pay a fraction of the price. A pile of bricks and wood is not the same thing as a house. And we all do require some kind of house to live in, but very few have the skill to actually build that house. And getting the skill is also a matter of time, and of course we do not all focus our attention on obtaining the skills to build a house. Its very easy to put a value on physical labor that gives form to the things in our world. Its easy to put a value on the labor requried to provide a service to other people. But in our world some people even manage to earn a comfortable livelyhood just on the basis of having an opinion!

Of course in the matter of such opinions, they can often be said to be educated or expert. But in many of these professions there is very little physical labor involved that can't be delegated to another, there is little more than the process of making a decision in some cases. And yet the whole process does require another person's time and attention, and that time may easily equate to money.

Now of course it is right and good that a person's labor, should it prove beneficial to the community, would entitle that person to services from the community. And we use a medium of exchange to make things work this way, the power of money. But of course we must needs determine what level of rewards are appropriate to the work that has been done. But every person in the world recieves their allotment of time by the same measure, should we really say that the measure of one person's time is more or less valuable? And here we go exercising that judgement again to decided what things are more or less important. Completeing the more important works should be more rewarding of course. If work is less important then it should provide less rewards from the community.

To a large degree we decided which jobs are most important by the demand for that kind of work to be done, and of course the supply of workers that can do the job may be taken into account as well. Clearly not all people enjoy equal means to get work done, even if we don't take qualifying skills into account. A simple skill may be obtainable by any person given enough time. For some people, some skills may very well be unobtainable even given unlimited time to learn. A lot of labor intensive processes depend upon having access to the appropriate tools. And if a person does not have access to the appropriate tools then perhaps they can get access to the knowledge of how those tools are made. Of course the working person may save a great deal of time by having the appropriate tools ready made. But its feasable that the tools would have to be made in order to compelete a particular job.

I want to produce goods, and I have a plan from which they may be produced. But having a plan or schematic or patent is useless without obtaining materials. Now it just so happens that in our world, every parcel of land should be considered to be private property. Some people there are who hold a deed to everything under the land, and there will always be some person who has title to make use of the land. You may not simply go out and cut trees wherever you please in order to satisfy a demand for wood, without there being someone who claims prior rights. Therefore most of the world's material assets are inaccessable. But now please consider who should have greater rights to claim a portion of the Earth's substance than any other? And what body of governing individuals should have the authority to grant such rights exclusively? Without having the means to produce something for lack of materials, potentially useful labor never bears fruit in the world and thus can not be rewarded.
So it is very hard for a person to make their way in the world from scratch. Even the most remote corners of the world are regulated by civilization, there are no more frontiers.

And the people who have all the rights to resources from the land are those who have paid for those rights. And they were empowered to pay those fees by the process of having performed some useful labor. Now those people who are most senior and established hold all the assets. And having control of the assets gives one the right to determine how those assets should be used. Now every human being is a person of many desires, someone else may decide what will be produced and some there are who may provide the labor to fulfill those desires. Therefore someone else may choose how my time should be spent, and what should be produced. My self-interest may be served in some way because I will surely be paid some form of compensation for contributing my part to the greater whole. And therefore humanity creates heiarchys in order to organize a group effort, and one person stands at the top of the pyramid directing everybody else's efforts. And for giving the world such excellent direction, those people at the very top will get the lion's share of the rewards. But please consider, is that person at the top really more important than the person who is cleaning the bathrooms? You can't run a business place without having clean and sanitary bathrooms. Yes we create heiarchys but we easily forget just how synthetic they are and how no one person can be more or less important than any other.

And all the processes of labor and product creation in our world has a tendency to pool the wealth into certain pockets. And of course that wealth represents the power to command other people's labor, but it also represents the power to possess capital assets such as tools and buildings and land, and the various material resources associated with land ownership. Of course i would like to do everything to increase my own personal share in the world's labor, but I have no right to claim another person's time and attention having no money to spend. If I can not increase my share of the money rapidly enough, then perhaps I can increase my share of the material assets. And in fact the actual substance of the Earth is of very little value, perhaps it may be purchased without labor or money being involved. But I'd like to stake my claim to the whole thing in such a way that it clearly overturns any prior agreements made between persons when I was not a party to the agreement. I could perhaps perform the minimal amount of labor that would be required to produce a printed document. Yes I will embelish that piece of paper with all the appropriate legal terminology and it should serve as a deed to all the land, and of course all that lies beneath the land should be claimed as well! Well obviously there is no recognized authority in the human world that could grant such a document, by what authority could such a thing be sealed?

A simple argument could be made for equal ownership of the world's resources, no person should be entitled to a claim upon it that preceeds someone elses. But I'm not really interested in seeing the world divided up into six and one-half billion parcels, I want to claim it myself whole and complete. And in order to accomplish my goal, i would be interested in finding out if there is some person in existence with prior claim to the property. One person with a claim to preceed all the claims of humanity, and then of course to pay the appropriate price to that person. But now what if that person has no need for a man's labor? And certainly one may not take a portion of the material world in order to pay the price of the whole world. But the supreme person has been found and the price has been paid in full, and it did amount to little more than a promise.

Personally I have not many material goods that were not given to me by someone else. I have been employed occassionally in the USA, but the whole time that I did labor for someone else's interests, I also did labor for myself. And I have performed much of the kind of labor which is mostly consisted of making decisions, I have not even produced much documentation of the work that has been done to date. But for all the work that I have done, I have fasioned a thing of value; and that thing is a mature personality. Of course I have not yet recieved compensation for this work, but I still have hope that I might. Often times selling a good product in the world requires the manufacturer to produce the market as well. The people must be made aware that the product is good and beneficial to them personally, so that they will be willing to reward the work that has already been done. I have lived and worked in this world for niegh on 45 years now, I have had many good and some not so good experiences. I have a kind of expertise that is very hard to come by, it can not be had by education alone but in many ways it does depend on some education. As soon as I made my promise to the supreme person so long ago, I have been put on a path to become intimately familure with insanity. A really good fantasy can be a powerful thing to believe in, especially if it makes us seem more important. But whether or not I am more or less important than anybody else, I do know one thing that most people don't. There is a God in Heaven and he's paying attention to events here on Earth, and perhaps he is even concerned enough to act in some cases. Its interesting to imagine what things might become possible if we could have Heaven for an ally, its entertaining even when it produces no results.. LOL.

The Desire for Longevity

Once upon a time on Planet Earth there were two species of humanity. Up until about 30,0000 years ago the Neanderthal man lived here with us Homo Sapians. The Neanderthal man is considered to have lived here on Earth for about 200,000 years, which is twice as long as Homo Sapians has lived here. And the spread of Homo Sapians likely contributed to the demise and eventual extinction of Neanderthal man. But even though they were two seperate species, they still may have been close enough to interbreed. Now the Homo Sapians species has been roaming about the Earth for about 100,000 years and the people have changed enough, there is enough diveristy within the species for us to say there are many different races here. However our similarities still far outweigh our differences, the truth is there is only one race of humanity. There is just one great big dysfunctional family of man, over 6 billion seperate and individual personalities now in residence. Counting the number of people who have already lived and have suffered from the mortal condition, we could guesstimate that 14 billion human beings now live or have lived. Personally I like to think the number is close to 14 billion because its a number nicely divisible by 7, and i have heard it said that the number of people who have lived is approximately equal to the number now living. So 14 billion is a good number.

And I say that its not only one race but one family, the ties between us are as good as blood ties. For any two people that you can bring together from the wide corners of the world, there will always always be a common ancestor. It may not be easy to determine how many generations of history will have had to have passed to find that common ancestor, but surely there is one. Its a simple fact of life, and it has been sufficiently proven to point of being undenyable. The species of Homo Sapiens currently in residence in the world is a single species and you who are reading these words are part of it. That is our birth right in this world, to be considered one human being among 14 billion. We claim that we may be citizens of one nation or another, we may claim to be a member of one race or another; but I prefer to think of myself as a citizen of the whole Earth without respect for national borders.

Now its very easy to see how we are all different in the world, and hard to see how we are all equal. One person may be more or less intelligent than another easily; a person may be more or less educated than another. A person may have more or less physical strength, or more or less speed, or more or less endurance. A person may have accumlated more or less wealth, and of course one may possess more or less material goods. A person may even enjoy more or less esteem from their community. Yes, its very easy to see how we are unequal. The hard thing is to see how one person may be no more or less important than another person, and I challenge all who read to follow the harder path.

The founding fathers of the United States of American paid tribute to the idea that we are all equals. They even went so far as to claim that each person is endowed with rights by our creator. Now I'd wager that if a mere human being had such divine rights then such rights as those could neither be guarenteed nor suspended by a national government. It is not possible that we may sacrifice such rights as these even when we allow another person to exercise authority in our lives and make decisions that affect us. And certainly the exercise of our god given rights can not be interupted when we become the victims of violent crimes. Basicly we all have the right and authority to make our own decisions, nobody else can make a decision for me even under duress. However as a matter of practical human history there have been plenty of individuals that have been willing to apply some use of force in order to change another person's mind. Unfortunately people have even been killed just for having a difference of opinion, the authorities in the world did not want such ideas to be spread around.

Judgement is something that everybody does on a daily basis; judgement is as much a part of human nature as it is in the nature of birds to fly. Judgement is the process of decideing that one thing is more important than another thing. We have limited capacity to give our attention to any particular topic or problem; therefore we must choose priorities. We apply judgement to determine which of our daily tasks should have our attention and in what order things should be done. And we very easily extend that judement to other people, in order to decided that one person may be more or less important than another person. The people that are more important to us will get most of our attention and exercise the greatest degree of influence in our lives. But remember the harder path says no one person can be more or less important than any other person. In practice there are certainly some people who exercise an amazing amount of influence in the world, and for the most part that depends on a lot of people deciding to recognize another authority besides themselves. And there is a good reason that we should consider some persons as greater authorities on any particular topic because of that limited attention that we suffer from. Our world society is one of many interdependecies, and there are many people who have given thier valuable time to become experts.

Now I am certain that for any person that you might come to know in our world, they will desire a certain degree of seperation from some other perons. For any person that you can point to, they will always be able to name a few other people with which they prefer no personal association. The human animal is a creature of virtually unlimited desires and I am certain that one of the more common desires is for the possibility of seperation. If I had a loaded deck of habitable Earth-like planets in my back pocket and could promise one of those worlds to you, what would you say? If I could sort out the general population of the world into socially compatible groups and then offer each group a world of thier own; then I think the people would absolutely love me. Imagine a special world for all the right thinking Christains, and one for the Jewish people and one for the Islamic believers. One world for all the patriotic Americans perhaps, and another for mother Russia? I would gladly send the people off to their new homes until I would be the only man remaining here on the Earth. Free to possess all the hard labors of humanity that have been done here, because I love this Earth and I wouldn't want to leave it behind. But of course such a degree of seperation is unobtainable for us, and in the long run I do not believe it would serve the best interests of the species as a whole.

There is yet this concept of human dignity to be found in various places around the world. Just by being a fellow human being of ours, each person should be deserving of dignified treatment. What a wonderful idea, if only it could be applied without reservations. Its very easy to see how the honorable person is deserving of our respect; but how about the dishonorable person, aren't they also deserving. In most cases society observes that the criminal has sacrificed thier rights to dignified treatment. What if human dignity were a divine concept and a God given right? How should we be the ones to deny that right to any other person? But indeed humanity has become the enemy to God, the beast of the vision. Has God set the people up to be divided against one another? It would seem that he has. And a population divided is more easily conquered, therefore we should assume that God desires conquest.

Our world has historically been ruled by many kings and its not uncommon for a King to make a promise of land for all perpetuity. Moses was a King of Israel and he promised land to those people, the land which is now known as Israel or Palestine. And then came Jesus who is beleived to be another king, and this king makes a promise of land the likes of which has never before been made. Jesus promises the WHOLE EARTH to those people who should be considered meek! Generally speaking such promises that have been made in the past have proven to be very devisive. But its interesting to note that those people who should be considered meek may easily inhabit every nation of the world. Its very hard to imagine how the meek would gain entitlement to the land; the Israeli people took their land by force, it was easy then as it is today. Now I just need a way to sort all those people who should not be considered meek off to those several Earth like worlds that I have in my back pocket! And if the people can not be seperated from one another then those people who should not be considered meek must be subdued to such a degree that they will be unable to exercise any authority in the world. But then of course I would need to have a way to prevent the meek persons who will now rule the world from being physically mollested by the governed. Its a tall order for a new King.

Personally I like this story of the Revelation of John so much, because it ends with a resurrection which in my opionion would be amazing good fortune for the species. One of the more common desires among the human population is a desire for JUSTICE. It would be nice if Justice were built into the Universe, it could all be automatic without the need for human intervention. But in order for there to be justice then someone must exercise judgement. Now in my opinion, its as good as a promise that there will be a ressurection here on this Earth. And the people will be made to suffer immortality and live here in the world again. Can't imagine how it could ever possibly happen that way, but I still trust that it will. The Universe that we live in IS afterall a very strange place, and many of the things that people have long believed to be impossible happen to be actual possiblities here. Here you will stand again, on a somewhat different Earth and you will be just one individual person among 14 billion or so who have ever lived. And of course you will not have the luxury of being able to complain that you don't have time for a personal relationship, you should have the opportunity to create a personal relationship with every person who has ever lived. What a wonderful situation to consider, imagine for a moment that you will be judged, and not by one judgement but 14 billion times over! You will have you're own personal life story and the opportunity to share it 14 billion times over. And neither will you be afforded the luxury of keeping a personal secret, no thing shall be hidden and no lie or deception will stand unrevealed. Once everybody has had the opportunity to tell thier own personal story everything will come out into the light and then finally there will be justice. If the people really want JUSTICE they should also want the resurrection that has been promised.

And thats how i see the problem of seperation, its a conflicting desire. The underlying priciple of the created Universe is surely a principle of UNITY. From one point all things that have come into existance have come into existance. Of all that substance that you refer to as your personal flesh and bone, it has all the great long while been part of this Earth, long before you were ever conceived that stuff was here. And all that stuff you call yourself, along with all the other stuff from which the Universe has been formed, links back to a single instant in time from which all things were born. We were born here on Earth and there we have our begining, but every one of us personally has many more beginings. Clearly the Universe has begun from simple forms of matter into more and more complexe forms. There is a great deal of diversity here in this place, but if UNITY really is an underlying priciple then how did there come to be so many seperate and distinct personalities. We observe the world around us from a disticnt point of view, and we are also forced to admit that there is more than one observer here, in fact there are many aside from ourselves. And therein lies the Agency of God, the force of consciousness pervades all things and even the emptyness of space.

The Human species being intelligent, being capable of speach and judgement; has classified and named everyting that we have ever laid eyes on. Every force that we have ever been able to observe in its interatactions with matter has a name. And we recognize various relationships between forces and objects. But there is yet a force which we have observed and never named a force, clearly consciousness itself is a force which interacts with matter. And we have easily commited the error that consciousness depends on life, but in my opinion it preceeds life as a force of nature. Consciousness is instead a force which interacts with all matter and has excerted its influence upon the Universe since the very begining. There is just something very peculiar about the arrangement of matter, atoms bond together and molecules are formed. Molecules are formed into cells and cells are formed into living things and there is something remarkable about these forms of matter that focus consciousness. But surely it is there before life comes along and focuses it to a point of experience and mind and personality. Therefore we look around the world that we live in and find personalities, clearly our Universe is well populated by personalities. But human life alone is not the measure or the limit these numbers. Many other living creatures should easily be considered to have personalities of thier own. And of course such life may not be limited to Planet Earth; but perhaps we should consider the possibility of personalities associated with objects that we would not consider to be alive! The Earth is both a planet and a living thing and has long been thought to have a personality of its own. Perhaps we should stop and think of the possilbility of a Universe filled with personalities of many different kinds. Every celestial body may well be endowed, but of course if such person's did exist for all this time they have never communicated with us overtly. And a lack of communication is easily consider by us to be sufficient evidence for a lack of consciousness. Living creatures are animated, they have some muscle to move freely according to one driving will. We have never observed the stars of heaven to have any kind of animation like this. But the stars do perform some labor within our Univeres, and even though they might cease to shine they never truely pass away entirely. But in the labor of the stars and thier passings our kind of life becomes a possibility.

3 Billion years from now, our galaxy the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy will begin to merge more directly. If there happens to be a species of intelligent beings resembling Humanity living here on this Earth at that time it would simply be incredible. Homo Sapians is young by Earth standards, and there are few kinds of life that have managed to survive here more or less unchanged for billions of years. Will humanity be the kind of survivors that can go the distance I wonder? At this moment in time it appears that our great intelligence has handicapped our ability to endure in a rapidly changing world. And of course we are still going about the business of killing one another in the most efficient ways possible. Armed conflict is the norm in our world, thats how we solve problems here, the power to destroy is the power that the people have the most respect for. And so long as that continues to be so, the survival of the species is in jeapordy, our extinction is nearly assured by our own behaviours. In fact I can hardly imagine our species surviving for another 3000 years if the status quo is maintained.

I would like to guarentee this world 1000 years of peace, by which i mean that it should be free from armed conflict. Its a tall order for a new king, especially a mortal king who should not be expected to live so long. But I have considered the problem carefully, and i'm a firm believer in there being a solution if not several possible solutions. For this, all the nations of the Earth must be brought an hour of judgement, and it would make neccessary some forceful persuasion. How to capture the people's attention and get it focused on one leader. Perhaps it will be possible for one man to become the popular hero of the general populations of the world, for the first time in human history one man's life may have global reach. Throughout history certain individuals have shown the talent neccessary to rise in authority beyond reason. Perhaps the world, our world of today, may yet be captured by a King.

Forgivness of a Father - Tough Love

I have married into the Chinese Civilization, my wife is full Chinese. Although she grew up in India and her beliefs are very much flavored by Hinduism. The Hindi believers may come to view me as an incarnation of Shiva – Destroyer of Worlds. My two sons are half Chinese and therefore all of the Chinese ancestors have become my own personal ancestors. In fact I accept all of our ancestors as my own personal ancestor, for all of their great accomplishments I feel proud. And for all the many crimes that have been committed I feel deep shame; but the crimes in the world go on. Whether you believe in a theory of evolution or the Genesis story or some idea about Intelligent Design that falls somewhere in-between; all of these stories draw to the same conclusion. Every single one of us shares at least one common ancestor with every other single living human being on planet Earth. We are one family, we are blood relatives, even the people of different races share some common ancestors. Its a sure thing and a sufficiently proven fact; no one should be allowed to deny this any longer. Even those people around the world who hate us and are angry; these people are our bothers and sisters, even those people who don't share all of our beliefs.

And the Moon will become the footstool to the Earth.

Our faithful companion Luna has been in orbit around the Earth for as long as anyone can remember. Now what would happen if the Moon's orbit could be brought to a complete standstill? Then naturally the Earth and the Moon would begin to fall into one another and the Human world would be utterly and completely destroyed. The Earth and the moon would be combined into one new world which may continue to orbit our Sun. And because life is so tenacious it may even maintain its grip upon the world through such a cataclysm, life may once again assert itself on Planet Earth. And it pleases me very much to think that even if the Human Species is unable to survive forever, at least the Earth itself may survive forever. If I could move one mountain i would choose the moon for my mountain, and it would be moved to a position between the Earth and Sun and this condition maintained indefinitely. Now I must say that I do very much enjoy bright and sunny days, and its very depressing for me when the sky is overcast. But I desire to show the people of the Earth a complete and total solar eclipse, unexpected and unscheduled, enduring for many many years if necessary. The reduction in sunlight reaching the planet from such an eventuality I expect will have an impact on the people's mood. And it may have an impact on the world's food crops as well. But it might also have an impact on the problem of global warming so that it can be reversed. It is the Sun's energy that heats the oceans and drives hurricane force storms, so that I expect such storms could be reduced as well. The world's Ice caps might very well reform over the course of a few decades. Of course some carbon dioxide must still be eliminated from the Earths atmosphere or else the whole process would just start up again. Perhaps such molecules in the atmosphere can again be viewed as mountains on a different scale and also moved. If I could succeed at moving one mountain then I would expect to move many mountains. And therein lies the nature of my most persuasive argument; your world can be destroyed, and I will only have to make a decision for it to be so. So you see I expect Heaven to provide me with labor to accomplish my own goals.

There was a story in the US news not so long ago about a man who became trapped in the wilderness all alone. This fellow had his right hand pinned between two large stones, and there was no-one that he could call to to help free him. He may very well have died in this situation from exposure and thirst. But this man cut off his own right hand in order to escape from the trap and survive! Now let me ask you if there is some sacrifice that you would be unwilling to make in order to assure the survival of your own species? If it ever could be made clear and evident to you that there really was an immediate risk to your own personal hide, is there something that you would be unwilling to give up in order to go on living? And its not only your own lives at risk, it is also the lives of everyone you have ever known or cared about. Everything in the world that you value or desire for yourself may be destroyed as well; everything that mankind has labored to build. Your cars, your homes, your favorite possessions all gone, everything that you have ever accomplished in life undone.

You may call this a dream or a fantasy, I call it a possibility. If the mountains can be moved by the power of faith then one single person would have the power to threaten the world itself. One person will have the power to dominate you, to beat you into submission. But this person must be motivated by Love in order to accomplish this. And I do care about all of you as if you were my very own biological children. I believe that people have the capacity to learn, I believe that the people have the capacity to obtain a better understanding. If I didn't believe these things about you, then I think you would not be worth all my time and effort.

Jesus made his final plea to Heavenly Father so many years ago, “Forgive, for they know not what they do.” And thousands of years later I have heard his prayer, and I have taken this into consideration. But still the people will not escape judgment; I will not allow you to carry on with your everyday lives with this lack of understanding.

The King's Edicts

A Message to the US Federal Government and other World Governments.

The Federal Government of the United States of America and other nations around the world will be required to disarm and disband all military forces. You may train your young men and women to be diplomats and psychologists or economists instead. No nation of the world may ever again train a soldier in the ways of killing. All armed conflict around the world must come to an end, you may negotiate with one another with all the force of a verbal argument and no more force than this. If a nation has military forces abroad they will be required to return home and dismantle their bases. All military personnel will be returned to the general population. China must obey this edict as well. It has been said that capability is not the same thing as intent; but intent does not matter, capability is enough of a crime. And of this crime many nations are guilty. Prepare yourselves for war and you must reap war, as grain may be sowed in a field and we would expect to reap grain.

The War on Drugs must come to an end as well. No national government may place restrictions on the trafficking of these materials across national borders. It will no longer be considered a criminal offense to buy or sell these recreational substances. It will not be considered a criminal offense to make use of these substances. The path to sanity requires this act, the people must learn moderation and they will never learn it by having restrictions placed upon their freedoms. Of course I do realize that many people may die because of this, but I do encourage you to intervene in one another's lives. You may intervene in another person's life and you may restrain a person if they become violent or pose harm to themselves or others. But you may not incarcerate a criminal indefinitely, there to be forgotten and ignored by society. The factors which cause the formation of the criminal mind may be well understood by the arts of Psychology; Psychology is a well refined and practical science and it needs to be better applied within our communities.

Because the Nations will now be freed from spending billions of dollars on military build up, that money can be used to solve other kinds of problems. And I want the world's attention to be focused upon the causes of social problems, and finding solutions. Some effort has been made in this direction already I believe but it is not enough. The children must be instructed in assertiveness, they must learn the difference between aggressive and passive behaviors, and what passive-aggressive behavior means. Many young children I believe are born with a natural talent for Ethics, and that talent goes mostly undeveloped and ignored. Ethics should be added to the curriculum of all public school age children. And also from a young age people should be required to learn the fundamentals of Logic as well.

No nation will levy a tax against their citizens for a period of at least one year. But if the government requires it's citizens to save a retirement account or pay for medical insurance or other kinds of insurance benefits; then those payments will not be considered a tax. The governments may not levy a tax against the people according to income, personal property or even to collect a sales tax.

The minimum wage in the USA will be increased to $12 per hour, no person will perform an hour of labor in this country unless they are paid the full amount by their employer. All persons who are employed and receive gratuities in the course of their work will also benefit from the full minimum wage. No person may be paid a salary which amounts to less than the minimum wage for the hours they have actually worked, even if those hours exceed 40 per week. All other nations around the world will be required to enforce a minimum wage as well, equal to $12USD per hour in the currency of that country. Each country may adjust their currency exchange rates against the US Dollar in order to alleviate some of the burden of this edict. If a person is employed by themselves and manufactures a product or provides a service within the community, they will of course exercise the freedom to determine what the value of those services will be. If you so choose earnings that would be below the minimum wage in the course of self-employment that will of course be your privileged. All businesses which provide services in the community including banking services must be made available 24 hours of the day. The same level of services must be available for all hours of the day. This should help with unemployment rates when all of these military personnel are suddenly seeking new work.

I will require from the US Federal government to mint for me 8 billion US one dollar coins for my own personnel use. No special design will be issued for this proof, the current one dollar coin design must be used. The letter 'K' will be embossed on these coins where the mint mark would normally go, this is the only way they should be distinguishable from other coins. Because I know that these coins will have on them the words, “In God We Trust.” I will of course pay the Federal Government the full face value for those coins.

Mr Bill Gates will be required to pay me 60% of his worldly assets, and he will also be required to grant me a 60% share in all his business enterprises. And every other person in the world will be required to pay me a percentage of their wealth according to a standard measure. For the wealthiest individuals the amount will be 60%, and for some the amount will be 30%, but for most of the people in the world the amount will be only 10%. A person of little to no means will not be required to pay a penny, and 10% of very little is very little indeed. And therefore I will become the wealthiest person who has ever lived, I will exceed the accomplishment of Mr Gates and other individuals by miles and miles. Therefore the great competition for worldly goods will be won, and the race must come to an end. Every person will be reduced by the same amount and I will be increased. But the people will also receive services from me of equal value, even though those services may be rendered in the form of advice or an opinion alone. But if Heaven will move my mountains then I will unleash a new order of material abundance in the world. The material assets of the Sol Star System will be reorganized to make them more readily available and accessible to our species. The people will still have to labor to obtain these resources and it may be a perilous undertaking, but i have faith that our technology may overcome any hurdles.

An Introduction to My Blog

It is a very well advertised and popular notion in our world that there is honor and glory to be found on our battlefields. To fight in the defense of a cause such as freedom for example the highest contribution that an individual can make to our world and our communities. But killing is murder; and murder is murder by any other name. It does not actually matter if the victim was a combatant or an innocent bystander, we have seen in our world that even women and very young children can become combatants. There is nothing noble about killing, no matter how high the cause may be. Murder is either completely justifiable in every case, or else it is never justifiable, there is no gray area in-between. This matter is a basic premise of my own faith.

If capital punishment may be justifiable and in the best interest of the community, then perhaps it was also in our interest when someone was killed outside the laws of the land.

The human species now possesses the capacity to destroy the biosphere of planet Earth. We have the ability to make the world nonviable for human habitation. I would like to believe that the species could survive here for billions of years to come, the Sun will certainly shine for that long. Its feasible that the world may continue to support life for billion of more years, even in the face of global climate change. The natural disasters of the Earth have no power to completely wipe out the entire species, short of an impact from space! Personally I believe that if the Earth is not hit by a comet or asteroid in the next 2-300 years then it will never happen. We should eventually have the technology to prevent such an event, its reasonable to think we may be able to accomplish this.

But if we look at our world today, we find that the people are still at war with one another. If the people love war and believe they can get glory from it, then probably our world will continue to suffer wars. And there is no-one to be found in the world today with the power to put a stop to it. There has never been a person in all of our long recorded history who has had the capacity to capture the entire world's attention and persuade the people away from fear and hatred. Jesus came and went in the world, some people called him the “Prince of Peace,” but even so the world is not at peace.

According to one ancient prophecy the children of the Earth will enjoy 1000 years of peace, prior to a resurrection. But its interesting to note that this prophecy describes the Earth of this resurrection as being a world without any oceans. Conceiveably billions of years may have to pass before the Oceans would disappear from our world by any natural causes. And yet some people do believe that these are the end times prior to our day of judgment. Some people have observed the most recent modern events as fulfilling the conditions of a Revelation that John made nearly 2000 years ago. We don't know very much about this John, we do not know if his vision was truly inspired or is just a case of wishful thinking. But this fellow John is not the only person who has predicted a day of judgment for the world, the people want there to be such a thing as real justice and not just the blind justice that we enforce upon one another.

I have a distinct advantage over most people in the world; I happen to know for a fact that there really is a God. Personally I do not believe in an angry and vengeful God, I do not even believe that God is really disappointed with the way things are in our world. Perhaps all human behavior is in some way justifiable, if every factor affecting our lives could be taken into consideration. But if the world must have a judge, then I wonder if God could even do the job!? Perhaps it will be required for one of us to fulfill that role in the world. Judgment is a natural aspect of human nature, everybody exercises judgment every day of their lives. Judgment is a part of the human condition, and some people have more talent in this respect than others. Is it possible that one person will be found in the world who's capacity for judgment is exceptional? In the same sense that a popular fictional character named Johnathan Livingston Seagull achieved excellence in flight, all birds can fly but Johnathan revealed an unexpected capability in training that skill. Johnathan Livingston Seagull was dedicated to the joy of flying all his life. Now we need a man or woman who has been dedicated to judgment, to achieving excellence and revealing a previously unexpected capacity.

Jesus said that faith has the power to move mountains, and perhaps we should have a reason to believe that he meant literal mountains. This man who turned water into wine and supposedly walked upon a troubled sea, why should he have a reason to believe that mountains could actually be moved? Whatever this faith is that Jesus was describing; few people have ever managed to understand it, at best some people have enjoyed a benefit from a fleeting moment of faith. The people who have lived have reported witnessing miraculous things, and i think we have sufficient reason to believe that miraculous things are possible. The Universe that we live in is a strange and wonderful place, it still holds many surprises for us. If the Universe has in store for us to live again on this Earth and to live an immortal life as well, then there will be ample time for penance.

Such ideas as these are the topic of my blog, it is a story about judgment day. I am the author of the story, and it has a beginning but it does not yet have an end. The contents of my blog are incomplete and if you read from the beginning to end it is already a lot of material. If you are interested please visit my private forum, there is a link there to my blogspace and a public access forum for discussion. At rs2-metalsun.com.

Addendum: This topic was posted in a public forum hosted by Acclaim games here...

Deception to End All Deception

If Heaven will provide me with the miracles that I desire, or even just a portion thereof, then I will work to deceive a great many people in the world today. Just as the story is supposed to go. But the truth is that all of these great many people are already the victims of a deception, and I will attempt to fight deception with deception. In the same sense that a forest fire may be fought with a fire to consume all it's fuel. The people will be faced with a dilema, they will be forced to examine all of thier long held beliefs and reconsider thier feelings about those beliefs. Until every lie has been consumed and there is no longer any fuel remaining in the world for fear and hatred to cling to, I will do battle.

Of course I do not possess some strange mental power that can produce the effects that I have described. My power is exactly the same as anyone else's, the power to imagine a possibility coupled with desire. But I have a personal advantage that most people don't enjoy, I know that there is a God in Heaven and that it's paying attention to events here on Earth. And I know that that God is aware of my plans and schemes my desires and my dreams. I have never recieved any kind of instructions from God, no advice or directions. I never heard of a single person who was born with an instruction manual and thats just the way it is for all of us. Everything I had to figure out on my own, I had to exercise my own judgement to best of my ability. Although I have received no direct guidance, I have experienced a number of vivid and interesting dreams. I will never claim to be God or A God, I am just a simple human being trying to realize his own potential. And I believe that our individual potential will be best expressed through a partnership with Heaven.

In the hour that the Nations of the World will be judged, it has been suggested that the mysteries of God would be revealed. And it is my intention in this mortal lifetime to provide that judgement. At this time no lasting judegement will be made against an individual person, I will only address how we interact with one another as national groups. And as the nations have delt with one another, they shall also be delt with in the same vein. The power to destroy or the verifiable threat therof, is the only consideration that the nations and the leaders of this world will ever respect. It is unfortunately true that only the threat of destruction will lend enough weight to my arguments to be seriously considered.

You will however still be judged individually according to the things that you have done or said but not according to the things that you merely believed in. And you will not be judged entirely by one judgement, but you will be judged 14 billion times over. All that you have done will stand revealed and there will be no more secrets, the light will remove every shadowy corner of your life. In the end, after we have obtained a full comprehension and understanding of how we have been a cause in the world, and how we have been a victim, we must be able to forgive ourselves. In order for a person to be completely redeemed by love, they must be able to love themselves. No matter what the outcome of my judgement may be, you will be made to live again on this Earth, and to live long enough for the task of judement to be completed. The resurrection is guarenteed, and even though I don't know exactly how it will work, I know that its true. Because whether or not you realize this at the moment, this Universe that we live in is a very strange and wonderful place. It still holds some surprises for us to discover I think. And if I have my way with the world you will soon discover that there is real power in Heaven.

Moving Individual Atoms

Moving Individual Atoms: Mountains on a microscopic scale

There exists somewhere within the vastness of the Universe atomic elements of Uranium which have reached a stable and non-radioactive state. And I propose to replace all of the radioactive elements of Uranium with those stable isotopes from elsewhere. A simple exchange of atom for atom, a translation beneath the fabric of space that depends somewhat on the uncertainty of exact location. And this will be accomplished over the spanse of a brief moment in time. There will be no deadly burst of radiation and there will be no electro-magnetic pulse when this event occurs.

As a consequence of this action, every nuclear powered nation of the world will be instantly dissarmed of all warheads that make use of this material. Additionally all of your nuclear powered navies will come to a standstill. As an unfortunate side effect of this event, all of the world's nuclear power plants now generating electical power for our communities will also go offline. But as a fortunate side effect, every place in the world that has been despoiled by this material will be rendered clean. I can not allow one ounce of this material to remain here on the Earth or even within it. Yes even this material within the Earth will be rendered inert, this may have some geological consequences but they may take a long time to develope. Henceforth I will decree that this material is outlawed upon the Earth, the people can not be trusted to have it here. If perchance some of this material will be found elsewhere within our solar system, it may not be returned to the world.

I have admired President Ronald Reagen for his Star Wars Missle Defense idea, I liked the idea so much that I have pursued it in my own time. I only beleive that it might have lead to some grevious consequences if the United States had such a defense system and the rest of the world's nations did not have the same benefit. So I have designed a Star Wars defense system of my own. In fact there is an old testament biblical story where just such a force was deployed, and i have carefully considered the ways in which it might be done. This power to strike the Earth with a focused beam of the Sun's energies will be my defense system. It will be a force of sufficient power and precision to strike a single person dead. And I will begin to defend every nation of the world against aggression with this power. And this power may even be used to defend my personal self against acts of hostility or violence. This force may strike any place in the world daytime or night.

Subsequently I will request that public air transportation be brought to an end, the planes must all be grounded. It will be unsafe to travel by air, while this Star Wars defense is active. Rapid transit around the globe is a hazard to the world communities, as a viral or bacterial agent may easily be spread in this way. I can not eliminate the possibility of plague in any other way.

No person will be allowed to bear arms within a 10 mile radius of my person. Any person carrying such arms within that radius may be rendered unconscious and may require some medical attention to be revived. A person's intent alone to do some violent act may be enough to get them killed. If the Leader of a Nation gives the order to move military forces against myself or a neighboring country, that national leader may be struck dead. And if a person hears such an order given and moves to act upon that order, they may be found guilty as well. I will consider any effort to restrict my freedom of movement, to confine or restrain me in any way, to be an act of violence against me. And the person who gives the command for such a force to be deployed, as well as every person in that chain of command may be struck dead.

And it will be made known to the public media that the Landlord has come. I will make a public address detailing how the entire substance of the Earth has become my very own personal property. And a jubilee year will be decreed for all the people of the world. All debts will be forgiven, all persons being held in captivity will be pardoned and released. And for all that the people have labored to produce in the world, I will assess a portion for myself, to be paid by every person of means. It will serve as a fee for services rendered and a demonstration that the people will recognize the value of my time and opinions. My opinions will carry the most weight in the world as evidenced by my great wealth they will be so valued. The people will immediately begin the labor required to dissarm the world and all the people. No person will be allowed to own a firearm for self-defense or even for the sport of hunting or target shooting. Of course many people will still have the knowledge of how such things are made and I can not make those people forget, but I believe I can make a persuasive case that you will not make use of that knowledge again. I will not even allow you keep such items as a museum piece.

The art of a true leader is not to eliminate the freedom of choice from the people they govern, but to limit the number of choices available. The people have always enjoyed the freedom to make their own choices, and they will always enjoy that freedom. But I will limit the choices available to you in such a way that you will either obey me or be destroyed. And there are varying degrees of destruction available that i might employ; up to and including the complete and total destruction of all life on planet Earth that you can see with your own eyes. Every single work that the people have labored to produce in the world, and every material thing that you value may be destroyed along with the species. And the human story on Planet Earth may come to an end if the beast can not be tamed. You must show me that you can be meek and deserve to inherit my world, if you show me pride and arrogance you may be evicted from the world.

The Author of A Story

I have created my own story about judgement day, and I get to be the great hero in that story of course. I have placed myself at the center of the story and every story in the world today, that is where i belong, thats the way it should be. Its an interesting story and I have taken my inspiration from the expectations of the people and prophecy.

But has the world truely been promised a day of judegment by Heaven, or is it just a myth, a pleasent fantasy? If the story of humanity is supposed to include 1000 years of peace on Earth and then a resurrection to immortality; I really must admit that I like it very much. I have a deep personal interest in seeing the billions of human beings enjoying an immortal life here on Earth. I love the Earth, its a truely beautiful world despite all the works that mankind has done here. And manifestation is all that really matters to me, this Universe is a really interesting place that holds many possibilities for us. If some spiritual existence awaits us and we should become divorced from the material world and unaware of it, I would feel very sad. The truth isn't always exactly what we want it to be though, but each of us has a true story. I may not last forever but I feel confident that my story will, and that comforts me.

Jesus left us with a little riddle. He asks, "What should a man gain if he were to win the world but lose his soul in the process?" I have considered the question for a good little while and I have decided that perhaps the answer isn't all that obvious. Consider the whole Earth as a field that a man did perform labor within, even that field from the parable of a buried treasure. If a man did desire to purchase the Earth, how should he pay for it. You know the material substance itself is of very little value actually it might be purchased for a mere pittance. But a person can not offer the substance of the Earth in payment for the substance of the Earth. How can one man earn the price of the world, to purchase it and claim the treasure? Well you know we should really consider what the nature of that treasure may be which is buried within the field, obviously the treasure is a thing of real value. The treasure is desireable, anybody would want to posses it if they knew where to find if, if they knew that the treasure existed!

The real treasure here is the human story, the experiences of 14 billion or so individuals, the experiences themselves are the only thing of value here. Gold or Silver or Platinum or any material goods that may have been formed from these or other materials don't even compare to the wealth of human experience. Imagine that every person's life story were imprinted on video tape, and you could get a copy of the story without depriveing the owner of the property. You may now enjoy that person's lifetime of experiences at your leisure, it could be experienced as a pleasent dream or perhaps a nightmare. And you will be able to learn from those experiences and grow as an individual. To become a knowledgeable and mature personality is the ultimate good, to advance along the paths of wisdom divine.
If one person could consume the beast, and obtain the full benefit of 14 billion lifetimes of experience, then a new kind of person would be born into the world. This person has a name in some religious traditions he is called, "Ancient of Days."

Now how did I apply for the job? At some time in the not too distant past, my life was shattered by an event which amounts to the loss of innocence of childhood. A person that I worked with created a lie, to make me look like a thief, for their own personal gain. I was upset about the situation and I began reading the Gospel of the New Testament. I did have a strong feeling of inspiration from the teaching of Jesus in those books, and I decided in a manner of speaking to leave the world behind and follow the master. I gathered a few thing and the bit of money i had saved and left my family and got on an airplane to anywhere. And on this flight I met a man, who persuaded me to investigate the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I knew just a little bit about the Mormons, enough to think they are interesting people, but I did not know exactly what they believe in. And so I altered the course of my flight to Salt Lake City, Utah; and there I arrived alone. I was alone at the airport late at night with very little money, and I went out a ways so that I found some solitude.

Now I was at the end of my Journey, I had reached a destination and I was alone. And I became very angry with God because a man may profit from lies in this world. If we are to enjoy a ressurection to immortality then why delay? If there are things that people are failing to understand then everyone should be able to benefit from a lifetime that is 1000's of years long I imagined. Yes if the people did live for hundreds and thousands of year then they would be forced to become wise I thought. And if the people had more wisdom, then neccessarily the world would become a better place. And so there I stood with one foot on the sea and one on dry land and proclaimed that enough is enough there should be no more wait. On that evening I witnessed the morning star fall to the Earth, and received the key to the abyss and opened it up and released the ancient red dragon from its chains. And I promised my life to become the answer to a prophecy, to fulfill any role that might be required to insure that the resurrection may come to pass. It was said that Jesus did certain things in order to fulfill a prophecy, and I proclaimed that I would even be willing to play the part of the great villain and to suffer unending torment with the beast. If I could only know that the billions of human beings who have ever lived would enjoy the full benefit of things that have been promised, then I would be satisfied to sacrifice myself.

And I said to God, before an apparition of starlights, to take my life and make good use of it. I said, I am not strong, temper me so that I will be strong enough to do whatever needs to be done. Yes I even wanted to overcome the world myself, I wanted to rule it, this consideration was in my mind and my heart at that time. And then I walked away, I returned to the airport and had just enough time to get on a flight headed back home. And I was feeling very high because I had been successful, God had given me a sign, only me. And there was a woman on the flight across the asile from me who was blind, and I wanted to touch her, I wondered if she would see. But I did not move from my seat, I was afraid to fail.

These events occured in October 1982.
Since that day, God has made me to become familure with the wide range of human emotions and to be on friendly terms with insanity.

Ethics of Convienience

Occassionally one person wins enough influence in the world to change it; whether their intentions be for good or for evil. Everybody does exercise a small amount of influence upon the world around them, and from humble beginings something quite large can grow.

If you believe in a principle of basic human dignity and God given rights as I do, then we should be forced to exercise tollerance. We should show no preference to one person or another on the basis of thier beliefs or how strongly they feel about those beliefs. But when a person's attitudes and behaviour differs from our own, it is not safe to simply ignore them. If we are kind-hearted we must make an effort to persuade other people to see the world in a different light than they are ordinarily accustomed. And this is how one person can change the world, by getting other people to adapt to a different point of view.

Ethical considerations can become very inconvienient to us at times; and we may easily discard them in favor of accomplishing our own personal goals. If someone interfers in our sense of justice, we may easily become angry or hateful in our response. Practically everybody is subject to the vageries of an emotional response because we are animals of a kind. We are biological entities and subject to our own body chemistry. We each believe that we know what course will be in our own best interests, yet some people still manage to behave in opposition to their own interests. Some people on occassion have shown markedly self-destructive behaviour. There are many frustrations in life that we must face on a daily basis and sometimes it becomes overwhelming. If we don't get enough good quality sleep or rest we will suffer from mental fatigue, resulting in poor judgement. In order to circumvent all of these problems of basic human nature, we must learn to exercise patience toward getting what we want, and never to be in a big hurry.

Modern Society; in the western world at least, seems to be all about instant gratification. If there is a job to do, we care very much about accomplishing it by the most efficient and least labor intensive way possible. Organizational skills are highly valued, and the people who are knowledgeable about methods highly sought after. We don't enjoy life when its hard, when life is too hard its not fun. But the people who learn to view situations as challenges to overcome will apply thier intellect to solving every problem. There are battles to be won in life, if there were no opposition there would be no battles. Before we can apply ourselves to solving a particular problem we must be aware of what the problem is, we must get some understanding of the nature of the problem. But for every problem there is always a solution, at least one possible solution and very likely many possible solutions.

Yes there are problems in the world today, but we didn't create them and we are powerless to do anything about them. Its not my problem, its other people's problem. My attitude and my opinions are good, I like my own opinons the best, doesn't everybody?

Do you want to decide what the rules will be, or are you comfortable to let someone else make those decisions for you? We would all like to enjoy as many privledges in life as possible, we would like many and diverse opportuities to experience things. The more people that we have in our network of friends, the more opportunities should present to us. We must take advantage of one another to get the things in life that we really want. How can we reach our own personal goals without causing another person to become dissadvantaged in some way? Is it possible to deliver all the advantages to all the people around you and still WIN, and still be successful? What would you be willing to sacrifice personally, in order to improve the welfare of the whole human species? What personal sacrifices would you be unwilling to make if the welfare of your very species were at serious risk? Most of us are not trying to change the world so much as earn a comfortable livelyhood within it.

The Win-Win Attitude

What does the word civilized really mean? Essentially it just started out meaning that people lived in cities. Living in cities in close proximity is accommodating the individual’s ability to specialize; we don’t all have to spend time performing agricultural chores, some of us have become free to do something else. And when people specialize then interdependency is a necessity; for example, I am a medical doctor and I’ve dedicated thousands of man-hours to develop the skill necessary to perform my work, however I still need a home to live in but I haven’t had time to develop the skills needed to build it. Is it in the nature of Equality for everybody to be entirely self-reliant? No. It is in the best interests of the community for all individuals to achieve excellence in their own career, if all the people around me are successful then ultimately my own standard of living should be improved considerably. The word civilization has come to mean more than just that the people live in cities, it is more about how people behave.

Basically if you treat EVERYBODY in any particular situation with civility, then you are demonstrably civilized. If everybody could accomplish this improbable feat, then and only then does civilization emerge and become the norm. And what does this require from each of us? Patience, tolerance, concern for the welfare of others? But lets go back to the matter of Equality for a moment. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…”. According to many Kabalists the nature of the human animal is, “unlimited desire”, I personally feel this is a reasonably fair assertion. Every human-being large or small, famous or infamous or simply unknown has a common set of needs. Enough food to eat, clean water to drink, sanitary shelter, clothing; and beyond these basic necessities the uncountable and varied things that we simply want. I’d even be willing to add friendship and entertainment to the list of basic needs. To this extent we are obviously all equal, but there is more to the story.

We share this idea of ‘Importance’. Some things are important, some things are insignificant; and we choose to attribute one another with the property of being important or insignificant And it’s a sliding scale too, not just simply black and white. We see ourselves on that scale somewhere, if we are assertive people and we have much self-esteem then we place ourselves at the Important end of the scale. If we are not self-motivated or confident in our own abilities then we place other’s above us on this scale very often. Maybe we think that we are not smart enough, there is always someone smarter or simply more knowledgeable. As far as I know we don’t get to choose how smart we are and its not a crime to be below average in the intelligence department. We like to believe that we know right from wrong, that we know good from evil, we like to believe that we know best what serves our own interests. Morality, Ethics, Aesthetics are more or less community customs that we either accept or reject, we pick and choose between a variety of off-the-shelf public opinion. People that disagree with our view of things are likely to be characterized at the low end of the scale toward insignificance. But essentially every single one of us is important whether we own that realization for ourselves or not, not one person is truly insignificant. Yet when you start placing yourself on a sliding scale with other people then that’s when the problems begin, and people are very pleased with themselves to do this very thing. I put to you the following statement: “Equality is about the perception of others being no more and no less important than yourself.”

Now with this new realization we are forced to admit that the other guy’s feelings are justifiable, because if we believe this to be true of our own feelings then we must pay the same dues to our peers. My ideas are good ones, I really quite enjoy believing that; therefore I must acknowledge that other people’s ideas are worthwhile too. Who’s ideas are these? Surely not that guy who robbed the liquor store last night, I don’t want to be associated with that guy. No I mean everybody’s. Its really quite impossible to escape your association with every other single living human being on the face of planet Earth. You may not be aware of the association between yourself and some starving children in Africa but there surely is one. I am willing to have a conversation, anytime anywhere with anybody. I do not choose to neglect the other person’s need for a good friendship, to be inspired or entertained. I have something to contribute to the community and it is something that in some small way fulfills the needs of any person. Socialize, Habilitate, show concern, love, respect – when you can do this for everyone without prejudice or preference then you have become successful at demonstrating civilization. When you have achieved this, when you are the example to others it’s a win-win situation.

2nd Excerpt

2nd Excerpt from A Public Address and conclusion

You will now begin to do these things, if you do not comply with my demands then all life on planet earth will be destroyed. The human race will only exist as a memory in this universe. I have taken responsibility for you all as my very own children, this includes responsibility for both the living and those yet to be born. Therefor you will refer to me as Sire ken. I am the very landlord that Jesus warned you people about, and because you have not learned to be a peaceful people from the prince of peace, you will now learn it from me.

Now you will recognize that I am the most powerful human being in the history of this world, and I will become the wealthiest man alive today. Therefor I win your petty competitions for money and power. Money and the power to destroy are the only things that the children of the earth respect. All of you say that you desire peace, but you say we will have it by overwhelming our opponents with the threat of superior force. Because this is the way that you squabbleing children have dealt with one another, this is the manner in which i have chosen to deal with you. You are all children to me, but children that I care very much about, so I have bargained with god in order to give you one-thousand years of peace.

I want to give you this understanding before I go:
There is only one human race upon the face of planet earth. Every person of this earth is descended from your personal ancestors, therefor you bear a family relationship to every other person in the world. By my own choice, i deny that I am a citizen of these united states of america. Nor am i a citizen of any other nation, I am simply a citizen of the entire earth and god's eternal kingdom. Every man is my brother and every woman is my sister and every child is my child, I am a member of the family of man. I am not a caucasian, I am not african, I am not asian, I am not native american; but I am all of these things equally. I do not claim to be god and I do not claim to be wise, I am a mortal man. But I am also your father, simply because I choose to be; I choose to feel the responsibilites of a father toward every single one of you and i behave accordingly. My feelings are genuine feelings, and my desire to help you is real. I am the will of the world, but I can not wish one choice or another upon you. You are free to make your own choices, you always have been and you always will be. But you are also free to suffer for the choices you make. If you would like to be free from suffering then you must choose not to cause suffering. When you see suffering you must act to rectify it. No violence or use of force can solve the problem of violence, it can only aggravate the problem. Therefor your choices will make you a part of the solution and if they do not then you are part of the problem.

Finally, as far as we should be concerned about what other people do, God is pro choice; and I don't want to hear any further argument about that.

That is all I have to say to you for now. God bless you all and keep you safe through these difficult times.

A Public Address

Excerpt from A Public Address to be delivered on the first day of judgement.

I have begun to reorganize the solar system in order to make virtually unlimited material resources fall easily within your reach. Obtaining those resources will be technically challenging and a dangerous endeavor, but I have confidence in your capability to do these things. For the work that I am doing, every person alive today owes me a personal debt. Your children as yet unborn owe this debt to me and every generation of humanity to come owes this debt. Therefore I desire to be paid for my work. Every person of means and personal property, from every nation, will pay me cash monies to be deposited in my personal bank account. For most people around the world the amount of this payment will be equal to ten percent of the value of all their material assets and cash holdings as of today. However if a person's total material and cash assets are equal to or greater than five million in united states dollars, then that person will be required to pay thirty percent of their total assets. Additionally if a person's total assets today is equal to or greater than one-hundred million united states dollars, then that person will be required to pay sixty percent. All of this debt is to be paid only with cash money, material goods will not be accepted for payment of this debt.

Until this debt has been paid in full and for at least one year, I declare a tax holiday for all people around the world. No government will levy a tax against its people for this period of time. Also, all current financial debts of individual persons are hereby forgiven. If you owe money on personal property or have any kind of loan outstanding, I hereby order your creditors to forgive these debts immediately.

For the purpose of collecting this debt to me in full, all corporate entities will be considered as persons. All companies that issue shares of stock will issue me stock in the amount of sixty percent of the companies' total assets. I prefer that this be a single piece of paper, printed with the appropriate contractual agreement and valuation, with embelishments. All other shares of stock in these companies must be de-valued accordingly. You will stop trading shares of stock now, until this task is completed wall street is closed. Therefor any stock that is held by individual persons will not be counted as part of their total material assets today, for the purpose of paying this debt to me.

Now I will become the wealthiest man alive once this work has been completed.

If you have a deed or title to land of any kind, that contract is hereby null and void. All the land belongs to me now. Therefor land does not have any monetary value to you and will not be considered as part of your total material assets. So that I have become your landlord, although I will not be assessing rent against you for your use of the land. You must still barter with one another for use of land but no person from this day forth will have a title of ownership of land.

I also require your gold, all of the gold in the world will be delivered to the location that I will designate. There to be incorporated into a public project. This will include all gold coins and bars, items of jewelry and other objects of art made of gold. This demand for gold extends even to relics and historic artifacts, all churches and governments and banks and individuals must make this sacrifice. Those of you who have gold incorporated into dental work or any other part of your bodies will not be required to sacrifice that gold. If there is gold leaf incorporated into the structure of a building, that gold will not be required. Therefor gold has no monetary value to you and for the purpose of paying your debt to me, it will not be included in the calculation of your total material assets. The monetary value of gold is now offically zero, you will no longer use it for trade. All of this gold will be incorpated into a single object and this object is my personal property.

Not only do I require this money and material substance from you, I will also require some work from each of you. Every able bodied man, woman and child will give me some of their personal time to perform this work. All people who perform this work for me will be paid by me.

All nations around the world will open their prisons now and release all people confined therein, these people are now pardoned for their crimes. This does not mean that their sins are forgiven, I am not the one who forgives sin. From this day forward no person will be made to pay a death penalty for their actions, anywhere around the world. Anyone who commits the crime of murder will be considered to have commited an act of insanity and treated accordingly.

The citizens of the united states of america and all other nations around the world, will no longer have the right to keep and bear arms. All arms and amunition are to be collected from the general population, these objects will be destroyed or salvaged. All officers of the law and military personel will continue to bear arms until this work is completed, but they too must bow to this edict eventually. If you are in the business of manufacturing weapons or ammunition, please stop what you are doing, your business is closed.

A Millenium of Peace on Earth?

1000 years of peace on earth, that the world should be entirely free from all armed conflict. Is this something that the world has truely been promised? Is this something that we should really expect?

At the present moment in time it seems that just about no-one in the world today, of any significant authority, is even considering the possibility of beating swords into plowshares.

But if you really want to see peace then we must begin to prepare the world for peace, and to not prepare the world for war. We should be teaching our young men and women to be diplomats and psychologists rather than killers and murderers. The world may just seem far to dangerous for us to begin to let down our guard, but you can not solve the problems of violence with violence. We are not createing a safer more secure world by fighting a war. Converting the whole world to Representative Democracy may not be in the best interests of all the people, but it certainly seems to be in the interest of some of the people. The people in the world who are favored to become representatives in a Democratic government have thier own interests at heart all of the time. And the people who are supposed to be represented, may not be represented as well as they should be. For the most part, most of the people don't really know what is in their best interest, and may not even be aware of what decisions are being made that may influence their own lives.

But I believe that 1000 years of peace on Earth is a promise that Heaven will make good on.
All the people of the world will be united under a single monarchy, one man will rule it with an iron rod. This man will have the power of Heaven behind him, so that he will be able to make a very persuasive arguement in favor of peace. This global community will finally be realized as one single nation and one single species and one single community. All barriers of language and race and culture may finally be overcome. These things which exist in the world to divide us from one another are all human creations. We have classified and catagorized and segmented the world around us to such a degree that it even extends into the structure of our societies. We have concieved the heiarchy, a way to divide up our labors into parts so that a large work may be undertaken. Heiarchy is the perfect way for us to organize a group effort, but are the people at the top of our heiarchies really more important than the people further down? We choose to divide our daily work into individual tasks, and we assign those tasks some level of importance. This method is so effective that we go right on to assign some level of importance to the people around us as well. We often judge one another by the careers they perform, some careers are more important that others, or at least more in demand or may require more qualifications.

One place in the world is most Holy and another place is less Holy; the whole idea of holiness is just a way to divide people and places from one another. From my point of view, the entire Earth is God's temple; every square inch of it, and no structure that may ever be raised by the hand of man will ever rival the Earth in sheer beauty (or holiness). One person is more important than myself, and some other people are less important than myself. My immediate family and friends and co-workers are most important to me personally. Some people living elsewhere in the world are entirely un-important to me personally. Some people are more intelligent and some less. Some people are physically handicapped and some perfectly healthy and fit and strong. There are certainly differences between us, but do these differences make us unequal?

From Heaven's point of view, I believe that all of these differences do not make us unequal. It is just like the founding fathers of the US Declaration of Indepence put it, "All men (and women) are created equal." But we hate people who are better than us. We hate people who are different from us. We hate people who dissagree with our own beliefs and feelings. The things that some people do may be very harmful to the welfare of the community, and we hate people who missbehave. Hatred because there are differences between us, and fear because of things people do - these things are driving the world to the brink of insanity. We have been taught insanity, even if we do not realize we are suffering, we may be causing others suffering. We may cause suffering by our lack of action, and some of us may purposely act to be such a cause in the life of another. When we are angry, we want the people in our community to know we are angry, we want other people to suffer with us. And when we are very angry we may easily be inspired to violence. The rest of the world seems to be telling us that violence is ok, violence may be the solution to our problems, this is how other problems get solved in the world today! That the large majority of us are suffering from a condition of insanity and poor understanding is a very serious problem. But it is a problem that may be solvable via education, its possible for the people to get a better understanding. But for the most part this one root cause goes unadressed in the world, the one main problem of our human condition is mostly ignored.

If the world could be freed from violence then perhaps we may have a better chance to address the issues of hatred that motivate so many of our lives. If we have no more reason to fear one another then perhaps we can come out and talk about the things that truely concern us. We need to learn social responsibility, companionship is a basic neccessity of human life. We need to make sure that everybody has companionship in their lives. Offering our attention and our friendship to the person who is being most ignored by the community is a good and worthy thing. Everybody needs to be socialized and it is everybodies responsibility to see that they are.

The 'Prince of Peace' has come and gone in the world, so many years ago, yet still there is no peace. It is time now for the King to come and judge all the nations of world and rule them. A King to turn the world away from the path of violence. A King to command dissarmament, to commence the work of beating swords into plowshares. A King to inspire the people to be motivated by Love and not Hatred, a good father to all the people without reservation. This world is ruled by the nature of the beast, and if the beast can not be tamed it must be destroyed. Like a dog that has been trained to attack by its owner. The responsible members of the community must sieze that dog and destroy it lest it break out of the yard and harm a young child. And the dog's owner should be held accountable if that dog does harm. The one true King will come and gaurentee the children of this Earth 1000 years of peace, and if that guarentee can not be made good then the world must be destroyed. This King may rule the people as a tyrant rules, and the people must show this man meekness. For it has been promised all the land of the Earth to be inhierited by the meek. Those people who all love violence because it empowers them; those people who want the world to be ravished by war because it keeps them in authority, those people may be killed by the power of Heaven itself.

And if you want to teach people Sanity, I could be perfect for the job.
