1) Love
[I
am the Lord your God: you shall not have strange Gods before me.]
{I am the Lord your God, who
brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself a graven
image, or any likeness of anything that is heaven above, or that is in the
earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down
to them or serve them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the
iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generation of
those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me
and keep my commandments.}
1
Love is not
jealous. The primary commandment
explicitly confirms the jealously of the old testament god who is understood to
be the same god who is one in the same as Jesus under the New Testament
paradigm. The attempted delineation to
segment the Old and New is like a two-party system pledging loyalty but
respectful disagreement for the mutual benefit of a country where each has
signed a common constitution straddling mutually beneficial margins of hypocrisy
at opposite ends of the page. A common flag
cannot be parceled through revisionist stitching to spare one body of a
bicameral congress for acquiescing to the will of the other.
Jesus does not
provide such segmentation. Judaism does
to retain its sovereignty. Jesus was
Jewish. His ‘friends’ who wrote the New
Testament as deistical word of god after
Jesus’ life were Jewish. Jews do not
believe Jesus was the son of god and
these are the people directly descended from the humans who were supposedly
there to witness the supernatural end cap to a virgin birth.
An asexual fetal
uterine implantation is unverifiable. To
balance the absurd Jesus becomes a zombie corpus strutting around Jerusalem post
spear and nail apertures. Somehow his
heart is pumping and nothing is flowing out his hand-holes? He is
breathing with speared lungs. In between
crucifixion and resurrection Jesus Houdini’d himself out and back into a
cave-tomb for around forty-two hours of biological death though some sort of
spiritual holy ghost adventure liberating hell and opening heaven gates. Jesus back in his bones is suddenly flaunting
his magical powers to tell the world to believe as if doing so in the first
place or dying in some other manner than execution would have negated the
liberation of perdition. In the middle
years we basically hear nothing of most of Jesus’ life as if the writers were
short on details on who was supposed to be the most important character in
human history.
Jesus floats whole-body
into heaven’s clouds. Millions of 1980’s
children saw the Challenger blow up on live television in elementary school. It seems like god would have made ascension visible for more than a few Facebook
friends or explained the ionosphere. It
seems like if the bible were the word of said god, the old testament would have gotten the proverbial it right in
the first go round if the testament-linkage was divine. I don’t know maybe god could have mentioned solar systems, microbes, or atoms?
Maybe Jesus as a
character was the ultimate anti-Meme.
The meshing of Jesus by the Meme into the old testament may be the
ultimate pro-Meme. Jesus as a character
was a revolutionary Jew protesting the authority of a foreign Roman government. Jesus advocated for empathy, do onto others
as you have them do onto you. Jesus was
feed, shelter, and clothe the Poor.
Jesus was love without financial recompense. Jesus was in modern political terms a
socialist, the opposite of right wing policy.
Jesus was the
antithesis to eye for an eye, wrathful god,
and the old testament. Maybe the
character of Jesus was marketed into literature of the system he despised. Maybe a lot of words were put in the
liturgical version of Jesus’ mouth to stem uprising of empathy in favor of a
sterilized compliance to populations of humans who could not own books or read in
order to breed inactive pacifists obedient to authority. Maybe releasing the pro-Meme fundamentalism
encapsulating the anti-Meme messages of the characters of Jesus and Mohammed is
the catalyst to evolve the anti-Meme. Although
Muhammed appears to endorse vengeance against one’s enemies in a way Jesus did
not.
Who knows, I
certainly don’t, but if one can set aside the god part and view the stories as literature, maybe the population
control aspects in the story make sense in such a manner. The hypocrisy of churches, mosques, and
governments profiteering off the Poor using Jesus or Muhammed as leverage is
obvious. Thomas Paine in Age of
Reason wrote, “the church has set up a system of religion very
contradictory to the character of the person whose name it bears. It has set up a religion of pomp and revenue
in pretended imitation of a person whose life was humility and poverty.” This hypocrisy is the nature of the
Meme.
Islam is a similar
game plan as Christianity syphoning Abraham-derived folklore through the
tributaries of Moses and Jesus to channel resources through Mohamed to arrive
at the same goal. Each attempts to
maintain compliance with the initial commandment as the god referenced is
slightly shifted and portrayed as the original given time’s clarification. If any member of the triad were to explicitly
state a name to god, the conceptual god would inhabit an increased culpability
of specificities beyond a name. This
would fissure the foundational integrity of the Bible and Qur’an and the
beneficial corollaries. Shiva or Athena
lead to discounting polytheism as paganism while monotheism stays sacred.
Each fragment of the
pie is culpable for the poisons and nutrients in the common apples. The storylines encourage such linkage. The bond carries nicely the conversion of
Jews into Christians and Christians to Muslims adding credence in the formative
years of each piggy-backed religion.
Like an evergreen tree this supplants pagan ritual by mucking the waters
to cloud definitive delineation in order to proselytize converts in the opiates
of common bond.
The limited
connection of Jews to appear inclusive in Christianity has afforded the
nationless-nation, Israel. In addition
Judaism is provided a hovering angel of protection in the form of the
predominately Christian-formed United States of America on a northern-hemisphere
dominated globe establishing the planetary definition of north as top and south
as bottom.
The biblical link of
old and new testament between the two requires consistent reassurance. The Vatican’s apathy and the ramrod
anti-Semitism of Nazi Germany serve as reminders of how quickly vengeance for
the accused regicide of Jesus could sever the tie given political convenience
during a debt crisis. The idea that such
a human-deity’s volition to acquiesce to the prophecy of his grand plan, rather
than oppose or prevent an assassination omnipotent Jesus saw coming, which makes
the death more suicide than murder, was apparently lost on or a convenient
omission in the propaganda of Hitler and various Popes. A Jew or Jews is/are also written to have
poisoned Muhammad with mutton.
This Christian-Jewish
bond is at the crux of the divide between a Palestinian people and the various
slants of Islam. These parties hold a
confrontational two-chair game of duck-duck-goose over the three predominant
Earthly monotheisms while simultaneously internally bickering over which strain
of Christianity, Judaism, or Islam is the most-high house. This is in reality a one chair game between
Christianity and Islam as the current population of Jewish humans is dwarfed by
either of the successor monotheisms. The
Holocaust stunted mathematics. The ire
of standing alone is correlated with the advent of global terror. This fragmentally veils the divide behind
notions of nation to substantiate taxes as surrogate tithes for secular militaries
awash in the murky pond of crusade and jihad.
The literal
Earthly-representative of the symbolic gamed-chair is the city of
Jerusalem. The consensus of Western
political and religious authorities abides for the ass cheeks of Abraham to
wedge sitting room for Moses and Jesus on a single chair rather than include
the competitor-prophet Muhammed. The
planet may be better to consolidate much of global conflict as imagining
Abraham, the human father-figure god-representative of the dominating
monotheistic triad finding favor between Moses, Jesus, and Muhammed.
Abraham is a
foundation of willingness to murder for god. The sacrifice of one’s biological want for
perpetuation (Isaac) is a laudable trait in exchange for piety over morality. Jesus is a new testament version of
Isaac. Instead of god commanding Abraham to kill Isaac, god commands himself through Jesus to suicide through
non-resistance to public crucifixion. In
this god becomes both Abraham and
Isaac and seals the impossible to please sadistic hypocrisy of both blame and
praise for the murder of ‘Isaac’. Jews
are blamed for the killing. Christians
celebrate the ‘blessings’ of man being willing to sacrifice the beloved son in
barter of faith for salvation.
We are to avoid
introspection or doubt in the Meme for the absurd virtuous reward. Faith trumps volition. This is an absolute inside the Meme to
rationalize the abstention of our morality.
From Kierkegaard’s Fear
and Trembling, “The story of Abraham contains therefore a teleological
suspension of the ethical. As the
individual he became higher than the universal.
This is the paradox which does not permit of mediation. It is just as inexplicable how he got into it
as it is inexplicable how he remained in it.
If such is not the position of Abraham, then he is not even a tragic
hero but a murderer”. Christians see
“Jesus as god chose death (obedience
to father’s command) [i.e. it is ok
to murder if god commands] and
process individual obedience in infinite regurgitations of crucifixion (pain is
a blessing).
The
Abraham-monotheisms disregard the godly histories of native North Americans
down the Central American isthmus descending through the Amazon and Andes, over
to Africa, Australia, and Buddha and crew in the Far East through a Hindu
Indian subcontinent occurring at similar periods. South East Asia left itself to a separate
game based on starting its own geographically distant theater centuries
beforehand disinterested in Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean.
This can be seen as
the dominant Meme has arbitrarily assigned Jerusalem to be the hub of
declaration for the dominant god.
Therefore including these other regions and parties to the triad of
central monotheisms is deemed problematic and burdensome to such a farcical
dance over order and chaos. This
cascades downward to treat the humans in these lands as equally superfluous and
nonessential as the Meme wields global political power. This fixation is frankly more attended to by
world powers due to the locus of hydrocarbons rather than theistic tourist
attractions, but it is rooted in Meme.
This is a man-made
illusion to impose the differentiation of humans in order to divert passionate
conflict to external rather than internal fonts of authority. This attempts to encapsulate order and prevent
the dissipation of chaos (energy/heat) by instilling the idea humans are in
control. Our mental/spiritual journey
becomes truncated like a roadblock when choosing teams or texts as absolutes
rather than potential paths which absent such branded fundamentalism would
probably lead to the same interconnected oneness. The conceptual exclusivity in such
fundamentalism is part of a greater gambit of global domination by a centrality
of forces that bear few losses in the wars created over arbitrary specificities
to inspire masses of humanity to surrender volition. Births, deaths, blood, and diseases are
fleeting compared to the immortality of the Meme commanding allegiance and with
it power over volition. The compromises
to form and counteractions to assert dissent to such allegiances are the core
of this first commandment to not have strange Gods before me. The me
is subjective and therefore a manipulative variable to be definitive or vague
when convenient to the empowered.
The underlying
belief in theism causes reflected ills in the West mirrored in Islam in the
East, which are less likely to be determined to be interconnected under a
non-specific god. To fell Islamic
terrorism in the world, humanity must fell fundamentalist theism and the
hypocritical depravity required to proselytize the non-empirical with dogma to
live a path to true empathy and love. A
Christian or Jew decrying the ills of militant-Islam ignores the dream-image of
creed terrorizing a common planet with a common vice of ignorant capitulation
in the common Meme shared in the West and swaddling the majority of nations in
an anthrax-blanket to comply with the control of the Meme. Any definitive assertion to the specifics of a
theistic notion of god is grand arrogance of the ego. It is this addiction to ego to dictate the
specifics that is the pernicious seed, not the notion of god.
Creeds must find the
humility of de-sanctifying dogma recognizing the common spiritual journey of
all life shedding frivolous time-blip recorded human histories to evolve and
recognize a common place we have always been and what we are, which is at
minimum to create true separations of church and state. We must shed fundamentalist identification
from our ego like weighted layers of armor to display vulnerability and see
what we truly are. We must accept and
not cling to the entropy we create.
The wars we wage
drenched in fundamentalism from tribalism inside rungs of Islam, to
anti-Semitism, to Christian crusades of which the United States actions post
9/11/01 could be considered a variant are fought with the wrong weapons and
soldiers. Until an American president
can give a speech without the words god bless America again and non-Christian
advertising candidates can regularly win state and national elections including
atheists or those who hold no tagged label the U.S. will continue to fail
humanity. We need to view someone who
detaches theism not as persecuting theists, but as a rational and necessary
detachment from any theistic notion of favor distributed by the traditional
segregation of the Meme: creed, nationality, race, gender, ethnicity, sexuality,
etc.
We must awaken as
individuals and spread a common love that sheds our individuality and our ego’s
quest for special rights or privileges based on these divisions protected
inside the Meme. Currently we need laws
like affirmative action to counteract the histories of such segregation, but
the true victory is a threshold of individuals comprehending where the true
weakness breathes that makes such safeguards still unfortunately necessary
based on the fear the Meme propagates.
If the West can lead
this shift and can avoid and counteract China’s stage wherein the State becomes
the new theism to end this idea of creed, nation, or race bearing pertinence in
public funding or legislative priorities we can foster a greater love within
our species and accept our path. For it
is not the elimination of theism, but the acceptances of all views absent fundamentalism
within those views that diminishes fear and emphasizes love within our common
whole.
One can look at
examples like the Soviet Union, and the French and American Revolutions in
quests for reason over religion to see how it is fundamentalism and the power
of sacrificed volition, not theism which is the problem. So much of fundamentalist dogma is drenched
in flawed human history and the unending thirst for vengeance through the ego
attaching thorns of the past in the paw of the present worshiper. One must understand there is no thorn,
because there is only one whole.
This is our
challenge and the point of our existence.
Our awakening or lack thereto is why we are here. The process we choose to go about that may
accelerate or postpone our inevitable extinction to our species. Attempting genetic immortality is a false
pursuit of the ego and is ultimately irrelevant.
2
The Decalogue was
written by men. One can look to Thomas
Paine’s critique in The Age of Reason on if the Pentateuch was actually
written by Moses. The conceptual
mythology of Moses on Sinai carrying stone tablets is mooted by the history of
human editors spanning time. . This coincides with the brevity and simplicity
of the statements. The traditional
iteration of the Decalogue is a concise predictable allotment to address human
conduct which is both insufficient, a double-standard, and a glaring
under-achievement if intended to convey the communication and documentation
talents of a deity.
Whatever our
longest-held verbatim account of such instructions that version is not the
original. What we see are a string of
patriarchal seeds translated through oral and written history. The timing of the gospels, written long after
Jesus’ biological life, mirror such distance.
So even if under the belief of direct godly-pronouncement at the impetus
whatever remains is a tainted derivation thereof spread by humans.
Given that
infection, the Decalogue is corrupted with social engineering on the grandest
scale. The words’ inherent link to such
a deity provides a deluge of automatic obedience amongst specific
populations. This causes those in a
position of power to appear as emissaries for and symbolic representatives of
the connoted and correlated beatitudes of the
Speaker. Therefore those advertising
such commandments independent of the logic or actual wording of such
salvation-dependent legalese could prioritize perception over reality in the
grand lesson of the fable of The Emperor
with No Close.
The primary
directive of a capitalist organism is to conquer, replicate, eliminate
competitors, expand, dominate, and avoid its self-induced extinction by
quelling internal rebellion as the risk expands with its portion of the market. The economy of god holds an asset greater
than oil, gold, water, land, or financial currency; the market is
volition.
A complex
life-form’s free will is the crux of societal structure and how one acquires
and expends resources therein. No tool
in the history of humanity has been more effective at explicitly and implicitly
bearing weight to internal mental scales to sway the volition of man and
womankind. The arenas of eternal
salvation or perdition, miraculous pardon or wrathful punishment, karmic chains
of blessing and detriments, and superstitious ritual present a powerful
playbook for those who choose to manipulate theistic-majority societies.
If one has control
over free will resources of wealth follow.
The curtain of the Wizards of Oz becomes transparent with the
perspicuity of science. Floods,
earthquakes, plagues, caverns, and celestial bodies once used as vehicles for
the transmittal of godly ideologies are uncoupled with the empirical logic of
barometers, telescopes, and microscopes.
The advancement of time threatens the internal composition of
fundamentalism. What we see in response
is a televised-evangelicalism that consumes a palatable inclusion of science as
godly-presence rather than absence. This
is the original gamble anew.
The whitewash of
paganism (the inventors of the game) was rampant with the careful placement of
Easter, All Saints Day, Ramadan, Rosh Hashanah, Christmas, and countless
ritualistic festivals to supersede local habitual practices covering spring,
summer, fall, and winter. The adoption
of selective science in a theistic paradigm instills comfort to stem the
rebellion of the rational mind to continue obedience despite increasing
evidence to the contrary. It blurs the
vast absolute contradictions between faith and science to shadow a pool of
coexistence so that rhetoric can stand commensurate with fact.
Every day absent a
clear deity-derived apocalypse leaves monotheism on a more precarious pedestal.
The additional entropy represents potential additional doubt in the Meme, which
must be counteracted. This is in many
ways why each religion boasts knowledge and foreboding regarding the end of
days. The threat of meteors, nuclear
annihilation, or global warming to create an unsustainable human environment,
whether teleological or anthropogenic grows by the hour. The potential presence of a god is meant as a
counterweight to human wariness of such a termination. In many ways the argument regarding human
obliteration via a deity is made as a blessing.
The obedient shall find a post-organic salvation and contrarians earn perdition.
This subconscious
thorn of a meme is bed with the fundamentalism of Iran, Ireland, and America
etc. The U.S. Republican party’s
commitment to deny the realities and ramifications of global climate change and
the heating of our oceans is because such science undermines this
godly-link. It is therefore rebuffed due
to its threat to the systems of global control maintaining, fueling and
perpetuating the empowered and with it the organization of society.
3
The ramp of global
ocean temperature coincides with the industrial revolution of the United States
and Europe ascending to dominate global wealth.
During typical diatribes and discourses on global climate change, the
end of humanity is often confused with the end of the planet. The planet’s cessation is unlikely and
deglamorizes religion’s version of the apocalypse.
Why would humanity
go extinct absent god showing his
face “again,” while allowing the Earth and the remainder of the universe to go
on like we would over the splatter of a mosquito on a windshield? Resolving this conundrum in the subconscious
mind is why a theist is so much less likely than an atheist to recognize the
severity of the problem climate change represents. To recognize no humanity in such a way
questions the assumed existence of god.
The same principle applies to asteroid
collusion.
Humanity’s demise is
doubted in the face of the empirical in preference for matters of faith. For if humans were instructed to base the
potential inhabitability of our planet as a function of scientific comprehension
other macro level variables could also become subject to such detailed
inspection. Therefore the science is so
often denied, decried, and attacked as panic.
Science diverts the show from traditional avenues of human exploitation
which have advanced the problem rather than collective points of action with
less well-established profit-opportunities designed to reduce the problem.
In comparison the
Dalai Lama echoes the dramatic threat of climate change and urges that man has
caused that. So it is man’s issue to
resolve. Why look to god? This is in no small part correlated with the
absence of material-wealth or the gross manipulation of Earthly resources by
Buddhists to a commensurate scale as the triad of monotheisms. This is a natural evolution.
Organisms will find
a sustainable resource, whether it be the consumption of a fungus, a geothermal
vent on the ocean floor, or parasitic bacterium; memes like religion are no
different. The peaceful harmonic
observer status of Buddhism, although formed in relative Asian-Pacific
isolation compared to the Western ethos generated from Jerusalem, is able to
permeate the global surface of Western dominated economies based on
understanding the meme-resources left available after the big-three have taken
root. The democratic avenue of the
internet and the Dalai Lama’s numerous web-video broadcasts represent a
dramatic shift in the media-power of religious thought, good and bad. (The Dalai Lama still purports his holy
generational spiritual linkage.)
(Based on the good
old internet and who cares about numbers because we are all human and who knows
if these numbers are right, but at some point Buddhists represent around 350
million or six percent of humans.
Christians 33%, 2 Billion, Islam 18%, 1.3 Billion, Hindu 16%, 900
million, Nonreligious 16% 850 million, Chinese traditional 4% 225 million,
Judaism is less than 1% around 15 million)
The internet estimates in 2015 the Earth has about 7.3 billion
people. The figures above are for about
6 billion.
India, after
extracting its splintered Islamic-appendix Pakistan, comingles a long-history
of Hinduism and Islam under a nation of modern make-believe. Hinduism has its own trinity or the Trimurthis
in Brahma (creator), Vishnu (preserver), and Shiva (destroyer). India lives in a hereditary feudal monarchy
rather than a true-democracy representing its massive throngs of Poor. The British Raj after the 1850’s split half
the country into princely states until independence in the late 1940’s, but the
taint still lingers. India has mystified
itself with notions of computer assistance and call centers prancing under the
ballyhoo of Bollywood trailing with mismanagement by the upper-remnants of
castes with a mirage of parliament scions uttering in the tongue of
semi-expelled imperialists.
The once British
colony has yet to evolve through the anti-Meme-part of Gandhi as India is still
a buffet of malnutrition. America
struggles with obesity as America similarly still has yet to understand the
anti-Meme in some of Martin Luther King’s words. Memes of India’s polytheism and karmic
internal blame to rationalize wealth and blight for the choices of ancestors
pour forth directly from a key meme akin to the first commandment which is a
centrality in a parallel karmic-infused theism.
Christianity and
Catholicism spread like cannabis plants throughout South and Central America
with Spanish domination plowing through “pagan” lands harvesting gold and
plants in some cases on the backs of African imported slaves in lieu of natives. What remains are natural resource farms for
the northern hemisphere and squalors of dependent poverty where elements like
basic water rights are sold by governments to private entities who exploit
citizens in the return bill. The sun,
the land, the cocaine, the marijuana, the oil, the produce, the blood, the
coffee, and the sugarcane are all saleable.
The influx of cheap
migrant workers engaged in a modern form of civilized slavery have built over
half the roofs in Texas and picked flat after flat of strawberries in
California. In return immigration reform
is protested as the ‘criminals’ are the humans hiding in cargo containers to
slip past armed wall-watchers. The
battle is really about farms and corporations keeping cheap labor and the veil
of anarchy swarming the gate in drug-towns like Juarez. This is the same as Charleston resisting
ending slavery and the garnered profits or San Paulo being the last to cease
slavery in the Western Hemisphere in 1888.
The Meme sees
immigrants as a lever to pit the Middle against the Poor as a marketed threat
to ‘limited’ resources to distract from the Upper. The Meme employs fake mass hysteria as
prestidigitation to slip dollars and control in its pocket. Undocumented exploited
Labor is a modern Jim Crow.
The irony with
modern immigration is that in both the United States and Europe the aging
population of Baby Boomers approaching retirement and then death creates a need
for Labor to fill a massive number of jobs opening over the next couple of
decades to bolster rather than drain those economies as the domestic Middle
moves up. The industry of human
smuggling created around keeping brown and black humans out will probably in
the not too distant future switch because of economics. Of course it is likely the Meme will still
exploit those humans once entered, but the tone of the conversation will change
and immigration reform will suddenly be politically tolerable by the Meme.
The Central and
South American Poor refrain from revolution behind the promises of Madre Maria
and Jesus. Zapatistas may surface, but
are crushed or starved out through political quagmires. People are placated to be content with the
nothingness while televisions are assembled for and sold in an American Walmart
making a pittance rather than nothing. Be happy with what you have and do not ask
about who keeps the differential.
China holds Earth’s
largest atheist population. To compensate
the state adopted the communist party as a surrogate god paired with
traditional religion. The
communist-state attempts to control the tone and content of media, business,
and politics. The Chinese communist
party abuses human rights and conducts covert violations of the State’s laws to
maintain control.
Traditional middle
age Chinese see the progress of the globe seeping into China as a positive and
tend to believe in the slow change of the system having been taught to protest
equals death or repression. Youth primarily
through digital technologies connecting the globe are more anxious to fight for
human rights. This is the nature of the
young slowly acquiescing to the comfort of wealth accretion (more to lose) or
stridently concentrating ardent fervent rebellion like aged whisky in the
tenacity of a dissident.
One can see how the
State is threatened by religion in how the Chinese government treats
Tibet. China, possibly more than any
place on the planet, demonstrates the true danger of the first commandment and
the fallacy of any conceptual god.
Religion is merely a
mechanism to facilitate this control.
God is the vehicle to which free-will is abdicated no matter the book,
clothing, or curtain in exchange for placating our fears of inconsequence to
our existence on a psychological level and death on an organic one. This includes the State.
4
The same apocalyptic
balancing act is true for the military industrial complex and energy
sectors. The continued construction of
mechanisms of war including: missiles, submarines, rifles, tanks, bullets, armor,
aircraft, ships, encampments, trajectory systems, chemical agents, etc. are
found irrelevant without conflict. Look
at the corporate cattle-brands on flying drones. Fundamentally connected with this system is
fuel of a controllable derivation. There
is no more uncontrollable fuel than the sun.
Renewable energies
such as solar and wind threaten theism.
As once conceived as being controlled by god, our scientific understanding of and ability to capture and
provide a socialized ubiquitous font of cheap energy to the planet is stymied
rather than stridently obsessed over for the reality that once the cork is
removed from the genie’s bottle to transport cheap solar or wind power to the
masses, trillions of dollars and societal control will be lost. Public ownership of sun or wind farms would
likely be pilfered by the Meme into private corporations as a counterbalance to
the potential anarchy of dispersed prosperity.
The same is true for
water supply. Look at California
depleting its aquafers at an alarming rate drilling wells for crops. Collectivism would organize tax incentives to
put water collection stations on every roof to allow rain to fill the aquafers
to grow plants. Instead the Meme avoids
cooperation and seeks inefficient solutions like desalination (uses too much
fuel) or water tubes from elsewhere (water gets polluted or stagnate along the
way) because these bear more order. The
Meme can own the desalination plant or the water highway of tubes but not the
sky. If every building had solar panels,
a wind turbine, and water collection to a common source shared by all how would
the Meme hoard profit or control? Water
is the new oil.
One can look at hydraulic
fracking for gas corrupting ground water in a similar capacity. The practice puts chemicals into humanity’s
most precious natural resource. Denton
Texas made a local fracking ban and the state outlawed the ban in 2015. The gas companies claimed the city had to pay
them for their ownership of the resource.
The Meme through the state stomped the idea of rebellion, of people’s
collective action of mutual empathy for the idea of clean drinking water for a
community.
Some countries will
adapt renewable sources under the meme’s zest for monetary advantage over other
countries, but this is done for economic reasons to garner more control given
the global market of fossil fuels in spite of the potential loss of control
domestically. This is why isolated
countries like Germany or France are more likely to adopt renewable energies
than oil and gas rich nations like the United States or Russia. It is not so much that renewable energy
cannot work. It is that the Meme inside
countries rich in fossil fuels prefer to sabotage, delay, and stymie renewable
energy to milk the product lifecycles of compressed Paleozoic carbon for
temporary wealth and power advantage rather than lose the profit to
obsolescence under a paradigm shift as useless ground goop.
If renewable energy
becomes dominant, a primary rationalization for war, energy supply, will be
vacated and less profitable peaceful environments will spread or be required to
apportion control based on other variables.
More independent people will be less hungry to consume as basic needs of
food, housing, and clothing will each be more easily met at a higher standard
with cheap available reliable energy which can be farmed anywhere the sun
shines, which is not owned or controlled by private parties.
Happy people are
less likely to support militarized conflict or abdicate volition to a central
authority.
Desperation in a
people leads to lower labor costs, tolerated product quality standards, and
thresholds of circumspection to those offering wares. War and crime are therefore intentionally
kept as a specter to maintain a sufficient threshold of fear to command
obedience and maximize profit margins and with it the economic disparity that
solidifies control. If nations do not
schedule or participate in military conflicts on a regular basis military
budgets will seem largesse to the citizenry and this fulcrum of exploitation
and control will be sacrificed.
This is primarily
done on a subconscious level. Majorities
of populations have rationalized the savior of other lands through the very
annihilation of the infrastructure of those lands. The key is the “at least it is not me” logic
of a foreign war. Better there than
here. Soldiers often believe god is on
their side despite contradictions we will discuss later.
The Meme is correlated
to the current state of the Republican Party in the United States of America
and Prime Minister Netanyahu’s actions of functional apartheid in Israel egging
nuclear war through Zionist rabble subsidized as a U.S. military outpost. This is correlated with the interconnected
role of oil in the Middle East, in particular the regimes of Saudi Arabia, the
United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait in context to the United States. Global sanctions oppose the fundamentalist
Supreme Leader in Iran who operates behind a puppet secular government. The growingly more moderate and democratic
Iranian people say and do in their homes what they fear to do openly in public.
Inter-religion turmoil
from the Shiite regional dominance in Eastern (highest oil concentrated) in
Sunni majority Saudi Arabia is a threat to U.S. energy supply. This dictates Western endorsement of a
plutocracy for the flow of oil despite Wahhabism being a central vein to
Islamic fundamentalist slants like ISIS derailing the preponderance of peaceful
Muslims. The instances of Muhammad
advocating vengeance against infidels and enemies in the qu’ran has to be
acknowledged as a substantial theme in the guiding text. Only in a healthy acknowledgement of the
fallacy of vengeance by all Muslims birthing from within Islam will true
Islamic fundamentalism reduce intra-faith violence. In Iraq nationalist protests are squelched post
occupation to keep the Arab Spring subdued.
The relief of sanctions with the July 2015 Iranian nuclear inspection
agreement may be the oxygen for the fire of Iranian democratic ideals as money
flows into the domestic economy. Certain
countries are more central to the Meme as inter-Islamic and tribal friction
undulates in violence and social oppression: Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia most
so due to oil.
The Meme wants to
blur the lines between Zionism and Judaism and fundamentalist slants of Islam
like Wahhabism and Islam. The Meme wants
to ignore the inspection and discernment of the text could be wrong or that the
absolutism has flexibility. The Meme
wants the polarization to control people.
The Meme hedges right in global politics because of this including the
United States.
The U.S. Democratic
Party and other global left-leaning parties have traversed ever more central in
policy despite being lambasted as far-left in media cycles. True American liberalism would be championing
a single-payer universal health care system including the decriminalization of
marijuana, cocaine and to a degree heroin to form intergovernmental raw
materials purchasing programs with foreign governments to supply regulated
distribution industries inside America.
America would
impoverish the black market distribution networks and combat poverty as a
social issue through education and prison reform while encompassing addiction
mediation in a comprehensive medical system focused on wellness rather than
profit by using IRS adjusted-gross-income fluxing deductibles and copays. However, none of this is even suggestible on
a national stage due to the dominance of the cascading subconscious
ramifications of the first commandment created by the Meme.
So many industrial
mechanisms profit from the manipulation of free-will by utilizing the
exponential human-consumption of limited and functionally irreplaceable
planetary resources. This includes:
water, oil, marijuana, cocaine, opium, land, habitat, forests, fisheries, coal,
methane, and gold etc. To internalize
the collective scientific and societal costs of such actions externalized from
the individual market-players profit equations increases the risk of human
volition electing to assert an internal nexus rather than the centrality of
religious and political establishment.
Few businesses will
elect to voluntarily incur a tax which provides marginal benefit to the
collective and substantial fiscal detriment to the individual who is exploiting
the collective. Enforceable market-laws
must be established to assure the market shortcuts are encompassed in a
collective profit-equation. To not do so
is self-destructive and in the best individual-interest of the wealthiest
humans, absent either planetary human unsustainability or a threshold of
atheism or divergent election of religious brand which the empowered cannot
control.

One can see how the
first commandment presents unilateral obedience to an absolute authority. Love is promised for those who abide. However love cannot exist absent mutual
vulnerability. Love can only exist when
chosen; a choice cannot be made without free will.
Therefore one could
argue that the idea of an infallible theist-god
(an interactive god as in the bible) is incapable of love. The entity does not first exist in time. The being always was and will be and is
therefore parallel rather than tangent to time.
The god knows and is part of
all that ever was, is and will be. Therefore
the god does not have the platform of
choice for a before, during and after for a choice to take place. The god
does not possess the vulnerability of the unknown due to the foreknowledge of
any outcome by nature of such a god’s
omnipotence.
Free will is
biblically presented as granted by god,
yet it is the one psychological construct that such a god beyond time could not possibly possess. Free will is an inherent balance of genes and
memes being weighed in the cerebral cortex of a human or the parallel brain of
an organism performed in our illusion of time inside the atomic universe. To assign free will to such a god is anthropomorphizing the deity as
one might do with a talking ocean. The
paradigm is inapplicable and can only be contrived as an illusion.
Any perceived pronouncement
would only appear as a realization by the non-deity within the illusion of the
self. The universe communicating is
reflecting the motion of a constant encompassing all. What could possibly be communicated from god /
the universe always was; it did not begin after the non-deity’s question was
uttered. Revelation is an understanding
unveiled in the constant all which all life in the atomic universe dances. Revelations require the platform of
time. Any god could not exist in time.
Choices cannot be
made in all-time at once. At the moment
of being made, choices are simultaneously yet-to-be made and been-made. This displays the prelude and the epilogue
outside of space-time. Such a god would have to exist outside of
space-time. For if such a god created space-time, implying
space-time has a beginning and such a god
is inside space-time, then the god
created itself. This would be an
infinite regress.
In a paradigm
outside of space-time (where time is irrelevant) for such a god, everything that ever was or will be
occurs in a single instant platform. Therefore
what we perceive as time is entirely inapplicable. (i.e. There is no past, present, or future
only what is as everything.) Inside
space-time, like a human viewing the past through light traveling from a star,
the appearance of a now is an illusion dependent on vantage point of the
processing unit (i.e. the brain of the viewer.)
If one was ever to
be outside of space-time and become an observer of the universe, and assuming the
boundlessness or bound could be held in one’s palm, the bauble viewed would be
in dimensions unfathomable by humans.
The universe would simultaneously be all width, length, height of all of
the atoms as either mass or energy at all moments of time occupying every coordinate
of space-time each atom has ever, is, or will ever inhabit and we (the
observer) by definition would simultaneously be part of it.
One can ponder in
such scenarios that this might be held by a being called god or by a being in
another tremendous loop of energy and matter to regress until such a god is
uncovered. One can fathom the infinity
of there being no end. One can fathom
that the totality of energy and mass inside space-time is god, that we are that
which we seek; we are god in a pantheistic epiphany of the atomic. To ponder any is irrelevant as the result in
humanity is what it is absent additional evidence despite the names attached.
When god is seen
everywhere and defined as everything, the concept of god loses all credence as
what traditionally defines god. Certainly
something like the patriarchal sky-god, to borrow Gore Vidal’s term is
abandoned. When a human says, god is
energy; god is love; god is the flow; god is the all; god is the universe;
these are actually tautological statements of an atheist absent an implication
of the god’s sentience. The word god has
lost all meaning. Words have become
flappable amorphous mutations appearing like a squeezed salve to caulk every
aperture. This treatise will use the words
‘we are god. We are the universe,’ without
any implication of sentience but in these words what is intended is that we
simply are, which requires further elaboration throughout this piece.
The symbol of a soul
was established as a scorecard and representation of an eternal ego documenting
the record of judicial debates of elected volition. The soul post-death is converted as a vehicle
of transference to provide eternal consequence based on the ego’s need to
define ourselves as a self rather than a perpetually transposing arrangement of
a collective. A soul’s culpability under
the Meme is meant to act as the deciding fifty-first percentile vote for
lifetimes of decision making resulting in obedience with the primary
commandment and ensuring control over human volition.
The classic
cosmological argument has been made to assert basically that something outside
of existence must have created existence, but that regresses into an infinite
loop of who caused the causer. (How did god come to be outside of
space-time?) The concept of boundless
and beginning-less space-time makes more logical sense independent if there was
ever a force, presence, or god unlinked to the impetus relevant to the process. Furthermore the concepts that everything
including us is a timeless arrangement of god which is not severable on a
physical level through the reality of atoms and interconnected on a spiritual
level shedding space-time through what god is beyond atoms each correlate with
the potential truth that we are the god we seek, have always existed and
probably will always exist on both a physical and spiritual level.
If the universe
always was on a platform of space-time supporting some measure of energy which
was transferable into a measure of mass in at minimum the four dimensions of
length, width, height, and time on an atomic level than all that ever will be
always was in the allotment of that pool of energy and mass. What comprises each of us today was in
that. Every cell of our body, assuming
we are at least eight, was not present during our fertilization or birth.
The elements in our
body are shared with our planet and the atoms with our universe. It is probably not coincidental female
menstruation and lunar cycles coincide.
Our bodies are mostly water. Our
moon shifts the oceans’ tides. We are no
different. Our evolution is from the
water.
If the universe
never began, then we never began. So in
when we were conceived, we were not created.
The atoms in our parents merely shifted as a half chromosome allotment
gamete from each of them became our first cell.
Our parents were created from their parents into an atomic-level regress
going back to the creation of the universe which never began. The atoms in all of these bodies move in and
out from living humans to any potential piece of the universe (animal, plasma,
plant, mineral, light, etc.). This has
always gone on in each of us.
We are genetically
our parents and to a degree we are atomically our parents for a time. We are also a constant transposing mix. Part of us may be shared with a shark from
ten thousand years ago, an alien from a planet a billion light-years away, or a
rock at the bottom of the ocean. Part of
us may be an atom in another being a million years from today.
Atoms know not time
or the limits of self. In this way we
are truly physically interconnected. When an atom is destroyed the mass converts to
energy. That energy has the potential to
once again become mass. We are recycled
temporal vessels awaiting reuse on a physical level. On a spiritual level we are a similar
constancy shed of both the atom and the illusions of time and self.
6
There is no self or
individuality when we see the universe on an atomic level. There is only energy and mass creating the
illusion of severable organisms. We may
cease respiration. Our cognitive
function will end so that our volition is truncated with a last thought and
choice, but during this life we do have volition, we do have choice.
However as we did
not come into existence at birth, we do not cease existence at death, because
there is no we, there is no us. There is
no I. There is no you. Physically there is only the universe, the
everything and what we choose to call pieces of the universe as we rearrange
our atomic parts temporarily capable of wielding volition.
We only bear the
illusion of individualism based on the vehicle of an organism with cognitive
function allowing sensorial reception and volition. Humans can fathom an after-life and a
before-life, which may be functionally identical. Some may imagine a heaven of beauty in a
paradigm of our five senses acquired based on volition or that our biological
task is that of a workbench to determine placement.
Most people would
probably treat this as a best interpretation.
We know saprogenic bodies decay in organic permanence. What many may mean to express is an ethereal
spiritual rejoining to what some dub god in a realm beyond the limited human
senses in a paradigm we are incapable of fathoming, which cannot interface with
our universe. This would be a presence
outside of space-time.
If there is a
physical after-life one might imagine it is on an atomic level. Maybe we are experiencing it now in an
inescapable continuum as we have done before in other forms and will do
again. Our brains truncate function at
death. Therefore our grouping holding
our current concept of self can never be privy to this explanation in memory. However, as the atomic collection we held at
birth is long-gone, the collection we hold at the time of our death will
commensurately shift despite those atoms being in a non-breathing
organism.
So in whatever we
fear of death, we have already experienced death on a physical level through
our traveling circus of atoms. What we
experience as rebirth, we as an “individual” (meaning some assortment of atoms
which have been part of what we think is “us”) has already moved on and into
other amalgamations in the universe which may include other humans currently
living or dead piloting volition.
Under this premise
the totality of energy equaling mass times the speed of light squared in the
boundless universe functions like a grand finite equation. Einstein’s equation is not the equation of
everything (combining gravity, electromagnetic, weak and strong nuclear force) that
the Higgs particle and field of how mass is added on a subatomic level may lead
or M-theory may explain, but the idea inside the current human comprehension of
physics is critical. Our universe
functions on laws of math between forces.
Maybe in a multiverse other universes function off of varied math. So the specific math is not the point. The interconnection that the mathematical
laws establish is the point. Therefore
what we are, were, and will be continues to recycle for an infinite iteration
over boundless or bound space-time inside this math. Maybe to some this finite equation defines
god in a pantheistic notion.
Maybe light is not
what we think it is. Light is an
electromagnetic wave, but what if light is photons mapping the extension of
choice inside the theater of quantum physics?
If a particle can be anywhere in the universe, what if we in membership
as an illusion of huddled particles are everywhere in the universe all at
once. We are simultaneously all
choices. We are all possible histories
like a photon inside a quantum uncertainty principle reflecting the grand
interconnection.
The speed of light
is a constant, not relative to position in the universe. Maybe light operates under massless laws to
paint the illusion of time. Maybe
nothing with mass can travel at the speed of light, but what if we are
simultaneously massless only in this biological form we cannot perceive it, yet
we are it. Maybe that is what death
reveals? Maybe in meditation like a
refracted light ray through a glass of water altering our view of reality we
are more aware of a small bit of it, all light (choice) bumping into each other
in this constancy.
The entire unbound
universe, does it move? What of infinite
mass, all the energy of atomic everything, does this balance all mass moving in
constancy so that at the speed of light squared equates to stillness. Nothing could ever view this, but maybe it
simply is. Maybe we as everything are in
constant motion and constant stillness.
If our spiritual
reality is truly independent of space time it would make sense that E=Mc2
attempting to explain space-time could not account for the parallel spiritual
journey with variables that include space-time.
What if we do not transfer between the two, but we are constantly
both. What if the constancy of each
balances the other like Newton’s law of reaction involving the entire atomic
universe with the spiritual universe based on equilibrium beyond
comprehension? What if in so many ways
this was the mathematical proof of science and faith? Who knows?
Our false experience
of living and deceased self would be irrelevant to this constancy. What would be relevant is that each universe
simply always is. In this understanding
we can quit searching to reach a place we already and will always inhabit. Only the we is the universe and our self is
merely an illusionary combination of a parcel moving inside the atomic universe
mirrored in an identity-less whole within the spiritual universe.

The x-factor in these
iterations is volition. Even an ant has
a manner of volition, despite adherence to pheromones. Does our volition matter to a presence beyond
space-time? Even if our volition does
matter, why is it important that we as humans be concerned with the whim of
such a potential presence or our collective judgment of our individual self
beyond the harm we do to our self as a member of that collective? The Meme certainly is obsessed with volition
as the nemesis to all human culture.
If that presence (god) cannot interface with space-time,
then any theistic religion is an unproven hypothesis. The specifics beyond human assumption that
“moral” is preferable to such a god are
entirely guesswork. To go further
without evidence is detrimental and a goose chase.
One might think it
better to set the unanswerable aside as hypothesis rather than conclusion and
simply be the good for intrinsic ration.
This is atheism. Some may costume
the idea as agnostic deism, but this requires the faith that the presence definitively
exists as at minimum the creator and to a degree that the presence is not us
(as in we are an arrangement of such an agnostic deist’s god.) An atheist states there is no evidence that
the presence exists. Therefore an
atheist does not conclude it or anything exists outside of space-time, but if such
empirical evidence did surface, an atheist would reconsider.
Humans are also only
aware of a tiny fraction of the content in our potential space-time
universe. One can imagine our universe
may be one of many like sheets of paper comprised of alternate frequencies of
space-time in an infinite count. The
universes may be perpetually parallel incapable of interface on an atomic level
residing in a severable platform of space-time.
If moments of tangency or forces approaching each other as the universes
exist like waves were possible to affect the others, the reverberation produced
may initiate the contraction of a boundless universe or produce an equally
incomprehensible result. In any of
these, the hypothesis of a presence (god)
outside of space-time remains roughly the same absent empirical evidence of
interface beyond faith or the non-answer of agnosticism.
One might also find
that if such a presence found preference for arcane or harsh elections through
volition, one might prefer a rebellion through goodness. One while living may think this was desired
by god, but in truth angered god.
One might also find despair at such a presence’s ambivalence in a
similar manner the way humans may have, do, or will pray to the sun, moon, or
rock formations. In each iteration what we
may actually be worshiping is the human-ego.
To anthropomorphize god into a mirror of us and assume that such a
presence would think and operate in a human-paradigm is the ultimate solipsistic
arrogance to see humans as special or pertinent. Jesus as a full human and full deity is the
ultimate example of the human-ego embodying god
and the Meme’s hunger for human specialness.
If such a god exists and was
to manifest in the atomic, why would such a god
utilize a human form?
Human hypothesis on
god is a confusing spectrum which creates apples to oranges comparisons for
this treatise. The first commandment
assumes an interactive god, which is
a greater leap then the typical agnostic not-sure abiders to the classical
cosmological argument entertain.
The idea that god is
the universe, energy, or exists in some dimension beyond human comprehension
outside of space-time incapable of or choosing not to interact with the human
universe is a possibility no human should have the audacity to bear knowledge
of existence or not. Definitively asserting
to such or the nonexistence of such represents a grand arrogance. However, there is no evidence that such a god
outside space-time exists or that belief in such a non-interactive god is in
any way relevant to any human choice or activity. Therefore stating nonbelief absent definitive
evidence is atheism. Maybe that is not
an encyclopedia’s or your definition of atheism, but it is what I go with (who
knows?)
The partitioning of
the idea that one should place value in faith (i.e. a good in belief in a
non-empirically-evidenced presence in or outside of space-time) is a
manipulative tool of the Meme. This
distorts volition to make malleable humans.
One is to believe that one may regret the absence of such faith
post-death or in the future. This
implies vengeance and insecurity that mirrors humanity, not the logical
inference of a symbolic ego in a presence attributed with the creation of life
and the laws of the universe.
The point of this
treatise is not to argue whether any deist-style god outside of space-time exists,
only that if one did not, human activity would result in the same end if the
god did. Basically any form of
non-interactive god is irrelevant on our known paradigms. Behaving to please or interface with such a
being is moot and a waist of precious time given there is no evidence that such
a being exists, has preferences, or what those preferences are.
Many humans may
assume we should treat others the way we would like to be treated with peace,
love and a cognizance of our interconnection.
Whether this pleases such a conceptual god or not, may or may not
matter, but as far as humanity is concerned this seems like a decent recipe for
a better world for all. One could
imagine an inverse altruistic compensation system: hurting equals heaven and
helping equals hell. If a god utilized such consequences would
one’s definition of moral change? Is
such relative morality not the Abrahamic lesson with Isaac? A soldier of the state or jihadist retains
morality in such ways inside the Meme.
To imagine an
omnipresent omnipotent voyeuristic god
is to imagine a neurotic capricious power-drunk authoritarian swapping from
friend or foe depending on compliance with arcane dogma. This is just the kind of representative men
who grow to run countries, militaries, and multinational billion-dollar
corporations harvesting the volition of humanity would install as it is reflective
of the patriarchal qualities required to accomplish such domination based on
the parallel lie of a verified deity.
The culpability for
the macro level decision trees to enact such events is diffused through so many
wills that whistle blowers are treated like Edward Snowden and Chelsea Manning
and thrown in prison. Those murdering
and violating constitutions are consistently pardoned behind the veil of
statehood. Holding national security
administration officials, pedophile priests, congress, or multinational chief
executive officers and prominent shareholders accountable is far riskier to the
Meme.
Conviction shines
light on the exploitation of human and civil rights and defalcating trillions
in the global economy by religious and governmental control systems. Sentencing a man to a life sentence or death
for one gunshot or the theft of two-hundred dollars at a convenience store is
standard practice. Imprisoning humans
for systematic hatched-plans resulting in the distant death of thousands or the
exploited profiteering or direct fraud of billions of dollars is considered
obscene inside the Meme.
The key variable is
the direct versus indirect linkage of cause and effect. The subconscious mind acquiesces to distance
ourselves from being animals to become holy-images made in the likeness of god.
We are hesitant to investigate multi-level causations. The Meme encourages this reluctance. Doing so risks unraveling society and diving
into the things we would be more comfortable not seeing under the surface of
our minds.

One is taught a foul
manner of love by the first commandment.
Like an abused spouse one is taught to be the submissive for the
dominant. We engineer ourselves to be
masochists. Those slipping behind the
curtain or passively working in the industries of public safety, energy,
finance, agriculture, housing and healthcare etc. intertwine good intentions
with perpetuating a system of control and exploitation.
This is done with
soldiers taking orders under the auspice of protection when the conflict is
often manufactured, futile, or a divergent objective rather than the human aid
that prompts fire fighters to rush into burning buildings. This is done with doctors concerned for their
patients performing surgery under hospital administrations with ramped costs in
every pill, medical device, and administrative fee inflating the system blamed
on elements like free-care for the Poor and frivolous lawsuits.
This is done with
every oil roughneck running pipe for crude to make ends meet for his family,
while that rig does not encompass its full environmental impact into its profit
equation included in its owner’s stock price or OPEC government’s people’s best
interest. This is done with every police
officer not speaking up behind the blue shield on the streets and in
incarceration facilities when the line between civil authority and tyranny is
crossed.
This is done with
the disregard for usury laws in complex derivative investments defaulting to
taxpayers in times of convenience and stockholders in times of luxury. Excessive interest is based on the difference
in rates for access to capital that banks borrow from governmental reserves and
then charge the public.
This is done with
tax subsides of corporations selling fighter jets to governments. This is done with farm bills incentivizing
mono-crops of corn and soybeans using GMO hybrids to subsidize a fast-food
culture demolishing our health and healthcare system at the expense of the
nutrients in our soil and depleting our acquirers. This is done with fines for a foreign
corporation polluting the entire Gulf of Mexico less than the profit that
company makes in an annual quarter.
This is done with
minimum wages adjusted for inflation less than fifty years ago and
shrinking. This is done with auditors
sanctifying the accounting. This is done
to consolidate the measure of wealth retained by those in control and expand
their power while avoiding uprising at every turn. This is done to maintain the hierarchy
evolving to do what the Meme we have installed has instructed us to do so that
we do not revert to anarchy.
For the god of the first commandment is a
paranoid god, incapable of true love. So
are those that use this commandment to their advantage. Look at the panic in the stock market
evaluating in a frenetic pulse. Prices
fluctuate based on rhetorical sentiment and large scale overly simplified
rationale despite hyper-evolution of nanosecond computational algorithms to consummate
buy or sell decisions which are so often independent of human intervention and
supposed to be correlated with the actual audited financial statements of the
entity.
The price of oil on
the planet is explained as increasing not on supply and demand, but on
temporary exploitable panic to explain the price the market can extract. Like the medical system it does not matter
what the product costs to provide, the crucial variable is how much the cartels
holding the industries hostage get humans to sacrifice before either a member
of the cartel jumps ship to lower their price for temporary advantage, massive
rebellion ensues, or an energy paradigm shift occurs.
OPEC and industries
will create shortages to maintain this type of control. The human detriment of fuel or a drug absent
from the marketplace for the short-term is small consequence to the long-term
profit-potential of a sustainable market where everyone is happy with their
larger piece because of commiseration.
Political stories of the day are spun for the industry to extract more
deeply.
If one does not
believe this to be true simply look at the most profitable industries on the
planet and one will see finance, energy and pharmaceuticals. Certain industries have more precarious free
market variables, which lead to higher public subsidization, which leads to
higher profit opportunities to hide this reality. An industry’s profit potential is often
directly correlated with the level of fear the industry commands when players,
including governments, consider the consequence of its potential absence. This is to some degree the definition of a
price.
Health is not a free
market good. Healthy humans do not
indulge in additional healthcare for recreation. The polarity of healthcare is reversed from
the traditional free-market economy.
Banks borrow money from taxpayers and lend it back to us at
exponentially higher rates. Energy
companies extract finite planetary assets and should be held as a form of
caretaker of that resource, yet so often behave as if management owns the
planet and should not be held accountable to that role when found to be
negligent by the social and legal contracts of caretaker whether it be Alaska
or Bhopal. If management owned the
planet the liability for the long term damage done to the asset owned would
also be on the balance sheet of that entity.
They are not; the taxpayers (citizens of the Earth) retain the
preponderance of liabilities, the stock-holders retain the profits.
Energy, health, and
public safety are false free-markets.
Purchasers do not really have choice; only an illusion of choice. The price per gallon at the gas pump is a
relative uncontrollable purchase. The
price for medical care is not communicated beforehand or often an option. Citizens cannot veto the purchase of a
missile, its firing, or the wage of the humans facilitating its launch. The majority of the U.S. and global economy
operates in such prestidigitation of quasi-choice.
The arrogance to
ignore these interconnections under the Meme is to assume the reign of god on Earth. (i.e. We (humans) are not choosing these
consequences, but this systematic output is the result of something outside
humanity (god).) This is the essence of the unloving that the
first commandment instills. The god is put before the others. Jesus attempted to clarify this with the
golden rule. However in the books he
also claimed to be the infallible god
purported to espousing the initial commandment. Jesus cannot disconnect the
contradiction.
The lesson of the first
commandment is love for these reasons.
If we love ourselves and others innately for who we are on a universal
level, not what we are convinced that we are filtered through the idea of self,
then we can shed the divisions of religion, race, gender, politics, education,
and ethnicity to see bare humanity including the core risk shared by all living
beings without panicking into chaos as we conduct our biological journey.
This is made more
difficult by the concept of a partial god
beseeching our mental labor to segregate redefining love as something that is
not love. Our volition is watered-down
into bloodless wine until we are a besotted lot sabotaging our happiness for
the enrichment of those profiteering off the Meme’s perpetuation. All of this is done into bank accounts most
of us will never witness.
This leaves little
doubt that we (all life) are the god referred to in the commandment, but this
does not make us god. All correlated blessings and punishments,
roles of oppressors and oppressed, we do to ourselves. This is human love’s contract flawed and
frangible not to exploit, but to install order under the surface, which is why
we as a collective super-organism choose over and again continued
participation.
We invent a mixed
image of god’s absolute
goodness. Absolute evil is thrust into
the construct of a devil to rationalize godly love. Disassociating perniciousness from god and transplanting such elections
into the character of satan bifurcates the volition of god. A perfect (i.e.
sinless) god is thus functionally
inept of this duality, yet if such a convenient machine as the devil is
available, such an instrument’s viability is a function of god’s allowance. Such a
device would be limited to a paradigm tangent to humanity. Like a nuclear launch button, omnipotent god need only figuratively press for any
such anti-god’s encapsulation of evil to be obliterated.
Therefore, one
cannot disavow this god of
culpability. Attributing perfection and
benevolence to such a loving Lord-god
are problematic. This is choosing to see
a portrait with one eye closed or to view the image from the waist up. The god
might have a head, torso, arms, but no genitals or legs. Biblical tomfoolery may imagine a back of
angel’s wings and goat legs. Each party
may own a gonad. There may be a halo of
horns and hand holding a pitchfork-harp etc.
This
anthropomorphized amalgamated holy-monstrosity is but preposterous to imagine
except for the human demand to see portioned flocks of angels and devils
serving as enslaved-militias for masters bearing the ideal of each set of
personified absolutism.
The sooner humanity
sees the nonsense in play; the sooner we take the reins on the runaway carriage
of our volition before we careen into the valley of extinction. We plunge in a democracy based on assumptions
that a single vote makes no difference.
Negating our volition to negligible contribution bonds humanity with
shackles in a burning prison. We must
awaken to what our volition truly is on a universal level. The crux is visualizing that no key need
exist. Our collective participation to
prioritize our mental/spiritual journey usurping the Meme’s grip on our so
often arbitrary physical journey is our charge
