Freedom

Anybody beyond puberty
can emphasize
sympathize
and respect
the desire to experience freedom
after the restrains and disciplines of a careful childhood up-bringing

But
what then is freedom?
Freedom to do what?
Where to do it?
How to experience it?
Why the need for it?
When is the time for it

None of those questions has ever been correctly analyzed
or ant answer to them universally accepted
if any one of them had
there would be no Protestations
no disagreements
no prodigal sons or daughters
no bloody revolutions
no wars
no broken homes
no estranged families
no divorce
no need for written declarations of independence
no need for proclamations of anarchy
no need to bow before kings or gods

Yet
If freedom is recognized by us all
as the most basic of all human rights
why then do we find it so difficult to comprehend?
why so difficult to put into practice?.
why is it so dangerous?

If freedom is worth any price
with every man and woman entitled to their own interpretation of it
but find in the end that it has given us a polluted world
with mass starvation
and mass epidemics of sickness
a crescendo of natural disasters
with our cultures teetering on the edge of species extinction
is freedom worth it?

If
there are millions crying out for inspired leadership
is that not a conflict of two directly posing principles?
does not leadership require obedience
with followers submitting to concerted rules of mass behavior?

Again I ask
what is freedom
if it leads to human conflict
the desecration of all our values
and Nature's values
and ultimately the violent end of the world?
is freedom worth it?

The Old and the New

Director
Obama Re-election Committee

Dear Jim

It makes no difference what the republicans or democrats say in the coming presidential debates.

The basic reality we all have to face is that the day of Government from Washington, the unethical philosophy of Capitalism and its vast bureaucratic expense of policing private ownership laws is near to total bankruptcy and will soon collapse altogether,

The new reality will be based on local stewardship of natural ecological boundary systems,
an ethical economic system based on Custodianship in which every business transaction adds more to the commonweal of man and nature than subtracts from it.

It is time both political parties woke up and packed up
and paused to smell the roses

Sincerely

Stuart Pringle
Director Global Stewardship Foundation

No separation between Church and State

Mankind like all else in the Universe
is an an expression of an Omniscient Godhead
therefore there than can be no separation
between the Laws of God and the laws of Man
In essence they are one and the same
with the guiding principle being
Loving Care for all of Creation

A distinction needs to to be made between the interpretations and administration of the Law
by the politician and the clergy
not the law itself

It is human to err
both statesman and medicineman make inevitable human mistakes
Thus neither are capable of administering the Law

Any attempt to remove the Divine as the author of the laws that govern cosmic behavior
inevitably ends up in a veritable Tower of Babble
as one made-made law after another piles upon endless loopholes and circumventions of the law
until the disgraceful library of legalities totters up to the heavens itself

The Law of God is not written on tablets or parchments
and thus subject to endless mechanical amendment
its is written indelibly in the heart of every new-born infant

the object of human administration
is not indoctrinate the mind of the child with man made laws
but to bring the Love of godly law to the surface of child consciousness
by loving parents in the security of a good home
not locked in a classroom behind a desk in state schools

when this homeschooling is done lovingly
then there will be no need for either Church or State
the love of man for his Mother planet and fellow neighbor is all that will be needed
to promote local prosperity
and global peace

Moral Equivelency

If every working man in America today
who subscribes to the selfish economic philosophy of Capitalism
and then uses that excuse to deceive himself that it morally alright
to consume more of the the world's resources than his neighbor
then that person should
at the very least
stop cheating on taxes

America would then might have an iota of morality to justify its wealth
and not be in the red
or suspected that it will welsh on its debts

The Tower of Babel

Genesis 11: 1-9

1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. 2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. 3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar. 4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. 5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children built. 6 And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do; and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. 7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. 8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. 9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

and so on 9/11

the Tower did crumble to dust

and America stands today

shamed before the world

its vaunted Capitalist philosophy

no longer AAA

Amen Brother

Passion of Christ

If it turns out that Jesus and his crew were gay
and Judas ratted on him out of jealousy
would that make a difference to present-day Christians?

Has the messenger always been more important
than the Divine message?
