Avoiding the cesspits today
and dwelling on metaphysical stuffs. I love metaphysics: no answers really but such beautiful arguments.(apologies to Heinlein)
Mentioned ‘creators vs controllers’, ‘good vs evil’, etc etc in the prior posts. I should explain that Metallicman calls this division/evolution/stage ‘service to others’ or ‘service to self'(a third as well ‘disrupted’ which is the second posing as the first, more to come on that) and I have to say there is a lot of sense in his stance.
Take an aside for this. Some of the moat selfish backstabbing hypocritical asshats I have ever met, wear the ‘born again Christian’ tag like a badge of honor. Not all, just like anything in this reality, but enough that you start to raise an eyebrow when you hear certain keywords. I recall seeing a picture of one of my mothers pastors (before she completely disappeared for years) who had taken all of the money from the offering plate passed during one of his sermons, and taped it on himself like a suit of green feathers. I recall seeing that image in my minds eye when the Baker scandal blew wide open. And one of my favorite tunes calling “bullshit!!!” on that racket is by Suicidal Tendencies.
So, maayyybbeeee, I am a little biased AGAINST organized religions. (Especially late 14th century Ideologies wrapped in the trappings of religion, but I digress) and that is why I started investigating as many aspects as I could , and researching so many different points of spiritualism. Seeing things I’ve read, thought, and discussed with others finding some validation in Quantum physics thrills the ever lovin’-crap outta me.
But lets face it, the Human RACE, (yes I’m Racist!, gotta problem with that???) Looks like it has a LOOONNNNNGGGGG hard slog ahead of it before WE are mature enough to be allowed out of this nursery that has been built for us.
And I think the real Impediment is not at the individual layer perse, but at the “leadership” level, AAANNNNDDDD, I think the impediment is completely Intententional and planned. I really do feel that certain entities are sabotaging the evolution of the human race because if the human race evolves and is allowed access to Universe, they will be left behind and powerless!!!! They are the true ‘service to self/disrupted” types. They play the “service to others” role to gain and hold power for their own means; the rest of the world be damned.
In a rather convoluted and tortured manner, my libertarian education has come full circle to some very old liberal views and evolved them into something,,,free market thinking applied to spiritualism and evolution. Darwin meets Mises and Feynman, and some strange but wonderful lovechild has been born, LOL,,,
Recall, 200 years ago, a Liberal wasnt a political term, but an educational one, where the person had a LIBERAL and complete education covering the gamut of what could be taught at the time. Philosophy, medicine, politics, economics, religion, music, histories, languages and you flipping name it, they had been taught it. And specializing was AFTER all of that,,
Now, you have underwater basket weaving as MAJOR!!! WTF!?!?!!
Any wonder why I feel we have been impeded in our evolution as a species???
And the species did it to itself through self-interested individuals and the willing masses that choose to not ask questions,,,, species applied entropy at its finest.
Wanna know what happens to a species when survival is rated second to Comfort?
Aw-hell, I don’t need to tell you, ya already know that one.
Right?
