Good and Evil
What a wonderful time to be the President of the United States!
If you are President, you are king. You can spend a trillion
dollars of other people's money and thousands of lives, to hunt
down one personal enemy. You can do it in the name of freedom
and democracy. Any who might get in your way will pat you on the
back and say; "Go get em". You can do it in the name of God,
which makes it good. King George looked upon all he had created
and it was very good.
"Woe unto those who call good evil and evil good." Woe unto
those who can no longer tell the difference. King George knows
the difference. Anything he does with a stated good intention is
good, no matter what the immediate and long term outcome. No
matter what or who it costs. Are you low on self esteem? Borrow
some from the king. He has more than the rest of us combined. He
is the good tree and he produces only good fruit. Won't you take
a bite? Go ahead. Eat - For these are the end of times and we
will get fooled again.
A new world outpost is founded upon the idea of freedom and
shared responsibility. True to historical roots, it soon goes
whoring for money and power. It is successful in ways the world
had never seen. It creates war for nearly every generation. It
creates obscene debt and consolidates the money and power. It
makes kings and it destroys them. It teaches its children that
all it does is very good. War is good, money is good, and
spending for today is good. Consolidating economic power in ever
fewer hands is good; that all servants will eventually have but
one master.
Evil is any and all that interferes with this process. We
deserve nothing but the first and very best of everything. Hell,
we deserve all of every good thing. They deserve less than what
they have and none of what we have. We build monuments to our
great goodness. If evil befalls us in any way, it is unjust. We
do nothing that deserves punishment. The evil that befalls us is
created by jealous enemies who must destroy the goodness they
despise and are unworthy of.
We believe such foolish drivel because we have been taught to
do so and we prefer to do so. Truth has become a tool to
perpetuate myths-false, fraudulent myths. With nothing but fraud
and deceit to unite us, we divide. We doubt. Most importantly
for kings and power mongers, we fear. If we do not go with the
flow, if we do not get with the program, we will be locked in
cages. "Oh no master, please don't lock me in a cage. I will do
whatever you wish. I will call good evil and evil good. I will
vote in rigged elections. I will pay you the first fruits of my
labor, in tribute to your 'holy' power. I will support your
every scheme and endeavor. I will never speak or act against
you. I will ever be your faithful servant and sing your praises.
I will be one with you. Please, please, don't lock me in a cage".
Give thanks for your cages all you faithful. Without them, the
master would have to beat and murder you to keep the others in
line. Examples I say. We must always make examples. Evil done in
the name of good is good. Good done in the name of evil is evil.
Appearance is all that matters. What you do not see does not
exist. As the good man said; "I'll believe it when I see it and
only then, maybe". 1984 is twenty years late but it is here.
Welcome to our brave new world.
You are old and collecting your benefits when it strikes you
how the college education that doubled your expectation of
income and gave you self esteem and confidence; was a fence to
keep you on the animal farm with minimal complaint. You were
told what to want, what really matters and how you could obtain
it, all your life. You sacrificed wisdom, love, gratitude,
reverence, healing, peace, joy, happiness, laughter, and
prosperity for a pen and pasture on the farm. Ah, sweet security
- Social Security. Have we not all made this trade to stay free
of the cages?
You are old and confused. You sensed something was wrong from
your earliest memories. Exposed to a lifetime of contradictions,
frauds and lies, you could never quite put your finger on the
wrongness. You learned to fear the truth that might land you in
a cage. Avoiding the cages became your purpose in life. Fear
became your constant companion and informed your every decision
--avoidance, your earthly mission.
You had no compassion for those who went to the cages. You were
sure they were to be feared when they came out. Those who went
to the cages most certainly deserved it, because they did not
make it their life purpose to avoid them, as you did. You have
been wise as they have been foolish. You did not care how people
were treated in the cages. If life in a cage was not enough,
there were people nearby to provide additional daily
punishments. You did not want to know the details. All is as it
should be. Endless punishment for social transgressions must be
God's plan for man; otherwise there would be no cages to fear.
In the end you patted yourself on the back. You lived in a cage
of fear you made for yourself. Well done!
