The mark of the beast

   Recall to mind , if you will that old movie, Thief in the night.
Aw come on I thought  it was cool... the perfect horror tale. Heck it kept me in Christianity a few extra years as I kept seeing the world turn to shit.

   I mean capitalism/and Communism are selling us water and air...sucking our resources dry, all for a buck or two trillion. Governments take and reprogram our kids to their own uses.  And I am not just being paranoid. I used to think of getting rich in this world but lately I have been thinking of the actual cost in terms of lives. I consider the morals by which humanity as a clongomerate live and compare them to my personal morals, and that of my peers and I am stymied at the ...well jehovaness of the prince of the power of the air, and the slavery of the masses.

   And at the muteness of, yes in deed, the muteness of god itself.( though i see the inevitable results that nature will exact upon a "sinning" humanity) Sometimes when the frontal lobe is short circuiting I imagine that there is indeed a strong delusion, and there IS a loss of humanity amongst ourselves. Then I pop a Zoloft, skip the orgasm and go to sleep.

    When I wake up I read of resentments concerning the failures of god and the shallowness of his followers. And something chokes under my breath. Things like, Man has always created idols to aspire to; could we create a computer god to master us? One we can't kill as Nietzsche killed the illusionary power over us to make us all good and orderly according to the will of the powers that be.

   The few seek to master and own all that is man. From our genome to our gnosis. We are highly advanced in the art of deception, and turning a blind eye to the melodramatic cries of starving people, and popular political activists.

   We ourselves are mere bystanders as the powers that be tell us of wonderful advancements and gadgets to consume and wars. And I begin to wonder if the anger we have toward god has become the  safe scapegoat to punish for our part in a screwed up world. Indeed we may punish the straw man and his sympathizer but only dance and sing for the OZ that tells us what our freedoms are.

    The few of us out there demanding a change are laughable to corralled rest. See the Big evil is too big...his chariots are made of iron, and iron makes cars and we need cars to drive to Washington to protest gay marriage, and laugh at the conspiracy nuts trying to expose corruption. Drink bottled water while watching the world burn...but thank goodness we wont have to deal with second hand smoke.

    I cant change the world, it doesn't show much sign of wanting to change anyway.(unless of course there is a means to profit thereby) Even Christians are unaware of the vampiric teet from which all blessings flow. But what my thought is.... can't you sometimes look at this world and wonder if this fits the description of men's hearts continuing to turn to evil?

    Now I by no means advocate that it is now right and moral to kill the entire race, but it wouldn't be god doing it.  Therefore couldn't the population "david" rise up and stop the immoral tyranny of cooperate "goliath". Have we the stones to make things right for the sake of  generations unknown?

    Or was that myth, opium to keep slaves dreaming while they worked? Or is it that we have yet to become desperate enough to have nothing left to lose.  Man, why are we like that? 

    Do you think that research will get funding from the government to cure human apathy? (fat chance...instead here's some Aderall to help with the overactive and powerless intelligence)

   Denying the human spirit is the unpardonable sin, in my view. Denying compassion, integrity, and value these are  among the "holy of holies" that all to often gets trampled in the expression ego, greed and anger. And trampled by christian and atheist alike. There is a common enemy and his marks are on  many.

    The only god we will ever have to come change the way things are is ourselves. And those changes are first personal, then communal, and economic,and when done with noble intentions,deadly. Because people in power don't like losing power to people who want freedom, integrity and life.

     What gods we have turned out to be. And what miserable servants of gods we have been. We have punished our children to the sixth and tenth generation with taxes,toxins,and torments because we did not love goodness, fairness,to respect nature. I can draw an interpretation that the bible god seems an allegory of humanity itself. And that to rid ourselves of the sins that make up this god ought to be the practice of Christianity as well as humanity.

     The simple fact is that it isn't,could it be that is because it isn't a common human interest? Have the things of simple honest life become laughable and antiquated perhaps irrecoverable... esp when you pause to consider the price to our comforts that setting things in sustainable balance would entail.

Ps do you know what is worse than all this?  The fact that I blogged my frustrations. Blogging, the other safe scapegoat.  How ironic life is.

    What should I go an march like the other world changing activists? My friend I think we are but fleas, and the kind of overhaul this world needs may be beyond our good nature. Don't worry Mother will recover, we are oil for another creature...by the time a new order has evolved they will have just enough time to advance enough to escape the blowing up sun. Let us hope that they wont make the same mistakes we have; perhaps they will improve upon the psychotic bible we will have left behind ourselves.

   (have you ever wondered if humanoid kind has been here before and self destructed and regrew and again we self destruct? I wonder what the next group will discover about our ancient world. Will they have learned the futility of political fighting and the goodness of a respectful use of nature rather than the rape of her for profit?)

    or.oh yeah...........time for my medication,it really is unhealthy for me to get all worked up.. seems the only thing i can personally do is blog and make the most of enjoying the qualities of life i can steal away. Normal people dont worry about the nature of reality, it is too terrifying a beast, we are all marked.
