All over the world, we (Earthlings) have been systematically rounded up and made to choose between the first two systems. Funny, too, that either choice is an eventual death sentence; for to choose one, or the other, is to swear a blood oath against the other system.

With today's media and citizen journalist's capabilities, there is little for either system to hide.(And we never get to hear from the Earthling, because we don't have a 'dog' in the fight. But when you see the dead, most of them are Earthlings.) So, for the last 10 plus years, both sides have been operating belligerently in the open. I am not so naive as to suggest this hasn't been happening since the beginning of the nation state, it's just, in today's world, we all get to see and hear the same remote event, at the same time.
In our hearts we know these people's plight and we say to ourselves, or out loud, "There, but for the grace of god, go I". The differences between some Iranian and myself are environmentally and economically imposed; at our essence we are the same. We want to have children. We want them to have a good and peaceful life. We want to grow up in a safe and clean environment far away from any 'ism', so that they may have an opportunity for a life of abundance. So they may have the basic human right to connect to this Earth in whatever fashion makes them happy, whether that be spiritual, material, or none of the above.
There is a war being waged between the Material Empire and the Religious Escape, but ultimately it is us Earthlings that pay the price.
I get the jist of what your saying but, may be you could be a little less vague. and are you a democrat?
ReplyDeleteI am a registered democrat (like there is any difference between the two corporate parties), but I vote for individuals that come closest to how I feel about our country/ planet.
ReplyDeleteI suppose to be specific in regards to this posting, I will use the American Empire and the Taliban extremists. Or, I could use the puppet Afghani regime, as another material- empire example, and the Christian coalition extremists in America, as the religious cop-out. Either way, it's the same game. Even the idea of nation states suggests a seperation from each other. Both sides are just as extreme and narrow in their scope, and both sides manipulate the Earthlings to fight their wars and expend our surplus.
