OUR CHILDREN ARE ALREADY DEAD.

I am speaking as a clinician in psychology. I am speaking from our Humanity. You can see it if you love them enough.

Our children are already dead - morally, spiritually, environmentally, ecologically.

What are you going to do about it?

If you cast off the illusion, denial, hypnosis... you can save some of those around you. But you must act now.

HUMANITY'S LAST STAND. NOW OR NEVER.

No, the question is not whether I am certain that in a myriad of forms Armageddon is at hand: Morally, Spiritually, Psycholically, Materially, Economic....

The question is whether this MIGHT BE THE CASE. If yes, what do you do? YOU ACT AS THOUGH LIFE MIGHT DEPEND ON YOU ACTING, right?

IS "PEACE COMMUNITY" LANGUAGE ENTIRELY SELF PROTECTIVE?

Is it just coincidence that there is NOTHING that supports responsibility or accountability?

• No goals
• No metrics
• No timeframes
• No commitments
• Nothing quantifiable
• Nothing absolute
• Nothing empowering
• Nothing measurable
  
• Just blame of others
• Just criticism
• Just words
• Just token deeds

EMPIRE'S CENTURIES LONG WAR ON HUMANITY IS ALL BUT COMPLETE.

For thousands of years the Spirit of Empire has raged virtually unopposed.

What are the physics of this? Well, if a force works for thousands of years toward a goal, eventually it will succeed.

Empire's final extermination of Humanity (Spirit of) is virtually complete.

Care to take a last stand for your children, and their children?

ONE LONE FROG FEELS THE WATER GOING TOWARD BOIL. WHAT DOES SHE DO?

1. She tells the other frogs


2. They have meetings


3. They have demonstrations

But the other frogs refuse to jump out (only ONE flew over the kukoo's nest)

1. In a finanal desperate act of solidarity she jumps out


2. Maybe a frog followed


3. Maybe a frog followed that one


4. Maybe it became the thing to do

Become a Weapon of Mass Humanity:

THE TIME FOR FEET ON THE GROUND IS AFTER THE BOMBING

For selfish reasons the "Peace" "Movement" is determined to avoid needing to become...

But this cannot be avoided.

A bonfire starts with a match, not the other way around.

FOOL-FOR-CHRIST

Fool-for-Christ - OrthodoxWiki
A saint who has the title Fool-for-Christ is one who is known for his
apparent, yet holy, insanity.

"If any man among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become foolish that he may become wise" (1 Cor. 3:18).

GOODNESS IS CULTIVATED. EVIL IS FORCED.

Hmmm.

I guess I kinda knew this, but I'd forgotten, and maybe it is clearer for me now.

I'm wrestling with how I am to respond to the opportunity our Mother has given me in the form of two upcoming Court appearances.

The fact of these appearances encourages my attention to focus there. It is, and as before I sense this unspeakable, monumental evil in the direction of my focus.

GOODNESS IS CULTIVATED.
EVIL IS FORCED.

Who would treat their "child" the way our courts treat all but the economic elite? NO ONE. And if they did their child would be made evil.

Yes, we all know this. But NONE OF US KNOW THIS.

IF YOU KNOW,

AND YOU DO NOT DO,

YOU DO NOT KNOW.

THE "SON" GIVES LIFE. "BLACK HOLE" TAKES LIFE.

JESUS NON-RESISTANCE: EFFECT ON PILOT?

What was that all about? Jesus did not defend himself. * **

I think I get it now. The Truth before Pilot / the Court was clear, there was no defense necessary. The only reason that Pilot / "the system" wanted defense was to take attention OFF OF THE TRUTH; to further enable AVOIDANCE / IRRESPONSIBILITY.

Jesus realized that it would give Pilot, the onlookers and bystanders a better chance at moral conversion if he did NOT ENABLE THEIR AVOIDANCE / IRRESPONSIBILITY. To return evil with kindness would "heap burning coals upon their heads," it would leave the full weight of their evil undisguised, undistracted from on their heads, and through such a gift by Jesus of Clarity, of Truth Jesus maximized the chances that their Humanity / Conscience would be at some future time awakened.

Yes, this is how to wage UNARMED PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE for the KINDOM.

* Matthew Chapter 5 39 But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is evil. When someone strikes you on (your) right cheek, turn the other one to him as well.
40 If anyone wants to go to law with you over your tunic, hand him your cloak as well.
41 Should anyone press you into service for one mile, 26 go with him for two miles.
42 Give to the one who asks of you, and do not turn your back on one who wants to borrow.
43 27 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
44 But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you,
45 that you may be children of your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.
46 For if you love those who love you, what recompense will you have? Do not the tax collectors 28 do the same?
47 And if you greet your brothers only, what is unusual about that? Do not the pagans do the same? 29
48 So be perfect, 30 just as your heavenly Father is perfect.

** Romans Chapter 12 20 Rather, "if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head."
21 Do not be conquered by evil but conquer evil with good.

WHAT THE JUDGE DOES: NO MY YOB MAN

Start!!!!!!!!! If you...

• Stand up for EVERYONE that enters or leaves the courtroom (NO ONE deserves more or less respect than another)...
• Disobey their request for hours of undivided attention in the courtroom until your case is called (I'm not at liberty to give God's time demanded of me by Her for her tortured children)...
• Refuse to willingly give them more than the 27 hours they've already taken from you (lockup)...
• Refuse to cooperate with unjust jail time for their sinful Empirish behavior...

... THEY'LL LOCK YOU UP!!!!!!!! THEY'LL HURT YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

No my yob man.
MY behavior is my yob.
THEIR behavior is THEIR yob.

"TO SIN BY SILENCE... MAKES COWARDS OF MEN." ABRAHAM LINCOLN

I sit here weeping as I scan into audio mp3 Carter's "Peace not Apartheid," not because the the scanning is so unpleasant, but because I am listening to the most wonderful Bill Moyer's program on Rachel Carson, author of Silent Spring. Oh my God, to be such a Life.

At minute 35 there is the most incredible quote:

"To sin by silence
when they should protest
makes cowards out of men."

Abraham Lincoln

"LIFE" IS WORTH YOUR ENTIRE FUTURE

See "Blood Diamond" and think of the look on Leonardo's face at the end. He has nothing but joy; no regrets.

A moment of Life is worth a lifetime of pulse. More and more I see this. More and more I live this.

I live this not for the principle. I live this for the Joy / Love / Peace / Life.

HISTORY WILL BLAME US CITIZENS, NOT LEADERS

History will blame not Bush and crew, but the average US citizen for the atrocities waged by the US on the world; atrocities of:

• Bombing
• War
• Extortion
• Forced Starvation
• Neglect

This is a land of 300 million yet we hide behind the fantasy that it is a nation of a handful of purported "leaders." The shame and blood is on the hands of we-the-people.

UNARMED PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE

UNARMED PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE: NONVIOLENCE BY A MUCH BETTER NAME!!!!!!

I remain horrified at how the "language" of people I respect throughout history CRIPPLES AND DISARMS US. I take it as a personal responsibility to attempt to discover infinitely more descriptive, TRUE, EMPOWERING ALTERNATIVES TO THE LIKES OF:

• NONviolence. NON??!?!? Does "non" explain Jesus? King? Gandhi? NON?!?!??!?! Desecration. Unacceptable. We must do better.
• Peace (the moon, because it is absent of Life has Peace). "He came not to give the peace of the world which is only that we don't bother each other. He came to give the Peace of heart which comes from loving - from doing good to others." Teresa of Calcutta.
• Resistance (there is no victory / new order at the end of the word "resistance.") If our child were trapped under a car would we "resist?" WE'D LIFT THE DAMN THING, or die trying.
• Etc....

THIS MORNING popped into my mind "UNARMED PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE."

1. The "war" we despise is not only "armed" but ultimately, explicitly and entirely PSYCHOLOGICAL. The bombs are to "change the mind" of the "enemy."
2. The alternative to armed warfare of oppression, that action waged by Empire that is destroying the planet? UNARMED PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE.

Yes this needs more work, but I think it is on a promising path. Comments?

CONSTRUCTIVELY FACING THREAT OF JAIL

Big deal! So I face the remote prospect of jail time for "refusing to obey a lawful order" at the Pentagon - Leafletting. Folks from the Plow Share's movement and others like them have spent years, 10's of years in jail! Yes, for leafletting at the Pentagon I maybe let off (as I was the first time in January) or at worst face months of jail. My body is quite upset at the idea of months in jail but my Spirit is fine, as long as it is the best use of my Life.

But, it is entirely my responsibility, my only responsibility in this, and in life more broadly to guide the use of my life as constructively as possible. Hence my musings in this post. Your comments would be valued as I discern what I am called to do.

THESE ARE MY CURRENT THOUGHTS (expanded below):

1. My focus should not / MUST NOT be on making some "Legal" point or advance.
2. My focus should be to offer an opportunity (no matter how remote) that MIGHT spur a dramatic MORAL CONVERSION within anyone touched by my action, now or in the future.
3. My efforts should be to be a Brother providing an opportunity to a sibling (judge, onlookers) to "wake up" to their sub-humanity, and move to their birthright - HUMANITY (EMPIRE LICENSES SUB-HUMANITY ).
4. I should take responsibility for how much risk (time in jail) / opportunity this Moral Opportunity presents and decide accordingly how much risk to take.

1. MY FOCUS SHOULD NOT / MUST NOT BE ON MAKING SOME "LEGAL" POINT OR ADVANCE.

• There is no more time for the slow reformation of our "Legal" process. It is not my responsibility to block others from this pursuit, but it is my view that this path is too slow, when we just don't have the time. If I kill time, I kill people.
• TO ENGAGE AN EVIL SYSTEM ON ITS TERMS IS TO LEGITIMIZE / EMPOWER, PARTICIPATE WITH THE SYSTEM. What purports to be a "Legal" system in this country is the opposite; it is patently a system to impose the will of the overprivelaged, or overprivelaged-wanna-bees on the poor and weak. It feeds off of cooperation. Gandhi was correct in asserting our moral duty to NOT cooperate with evil.

2. MY FOCUS SHOULD BE TO OFFER AN OPPORTUNITY FOR MORAL CONVERSION.

• With Gandhi again I find agreement - Moral Conversion is the most difficult goal, and the most necessary for us to cling to. And even if all of us are not to cling to that goal, I feel that for my entire adult life this has been my goal; I am suited to it; I desire it; I find it worth my life, so at least, for me, this is the right goal.
• WE ARE OUT OF TIME ON PLANT EARTH; THE TIME FOR CHANGE IS NOW OR NEVER; THE CHANGE WE NEED IS A QUANTUM LEAP; MASS MORAL CONVERSION IS THAT LEAP. START LOVING IS CALLED TO ATTEMPT TO SPARK THAT QUANTUM LEAP.

3. My efforts should be to be a Brother providing an opportunity to a sibling (judge, onlookers) to "wake up" to their sub-humanity, and move to their birthright - HUMANITY (EMPIRE LICENSES SUB-HUMANITY).

IF I DECIDE THAT THIS OCT 12 COURT APPEARANCE IS WORTH IT:

• MY ACTION SHOULD BE TO BE PRESENT AS A BROTHER OUT OF RESPECT AND CONCERN FOR HIS SISTERS AND BROTHERS (IN THE SYSTEM.) I WILL HAVE NO COUNSEL. I THINK JESUS MEANT IT WHEN HE SAID - DO NOT GO TO LAW. LAW IS SIMPLY SANCTIONED WARFARE - ONE PERSON "AGAINST" THE OTHER. IT IS NOT AN ACT OF LOVE OR SISTERHOOD; IT IS EVIL VIOLENCE.
• I WILL "AGREE" WITH THEIR CHARGES THAT I DID WHAT THEY SAID - WENT ON THE SIDEWALK TO LEAFLET WHEN THEY SAID "NO."
• I WILL LOVINGLY AND FIRMLY REFUSE TO AGREE WITH THEIR WORD "GUILTY" BECAUSE MY ACTION WAS EXACTLY TO AVOID BEING "GUILTY" OF VIOLATING OUR "MOTHER'S" / HUMANITY'S / HIGHER-LAW'S DEMANDS - "DO UNTO OTHERS ALL THAT YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU." If I worked in the Pentagon, you bet I would want armies of sisters and brothers to leaflet no matter what to bring my attention to being the world's largest oil polluter / planet murderer.
• IN DOING THIS (ABOVE) I WILL GIVE THEM A CHOICE (yes it is a choice they can and almost certainly will avoid "facing"): THE CHOICE BETWEEN TREATING ME AS I TREAT THEM - AS A HUMAN, AS A BROTHER / with HUMANITY; OR TREATING ME AS AN INANIMATE OBJECT - TRASH / IN-HUMANELY, AS IS THEIR HABIT. THIS IS THE MORAL CHOICE I WANT TO PRESENT THEM WITH. THIS IS THE MODEL JESUS PROVIDED, when He thought the time was right for him to make such a costly move.

4. I should take responsibility for how much risk (time in jail) vs opportunity this particular Moral Opportunity presents and decide accordingly how much risk to take. With two weeks to ponder this further, and hoping for input from you, my current, strongly held thought for weeks now is to proceed as outlined above, despite the wonderful input I have received to the contrary so far [take a lawyer, contest that the order was "lawful," cuz it "wasn't; it violates free speech! Will help us correct the legal system....]. Why?

• I find a deep belief that the poorly expressed line of thought above is correct.
• It is an experiment in unarmed-psychological-warfare (nonviolence) , giving Innocent blood worth executing.
• It is an opportunity worth presenting both to the "court" and to the onlookers.

Please tell me your thoughts, if you like; but feel not an ounce of pressure to do so. Start. See Comments below.

ps: Several hours after writing this post I saw Blood Diamond.

PERSONAL WEALTH IS MURDER

1. The US "Dream" is ecologically unsupportable by many thousands of orders of magnitude. This is scientifically inarguable. Therefore...
2. All Personal Wealth above that which IS sustanable is FORCED STARVATION, MURDER of people born and unborn on this planet.

EMPIRE LICENSES SUB-HUMANITY

• An individual man would never murder dozens of innocents - but a Soldier does!
• An individual woman would never take money from the poor - but a Business Woman does!
• An individual man would never cheat and bully - but a Lawyer / Judge does!
• Etc....
• Etc....

This was a major discovery revealed in Tolstoy's The Kingdom of God is Within You (last 2 chapters first), the book that created Gandhi:

What the individual would never do,
gross inhumanity to another,
that same individual
IN THEIR
STATE / EMPIRE /
INSTITUTIONAL / SOCIAL ROLL
WILL ALWAYS DO,
AGAIN, AND AGAIN....

MEANING. VIKTOR FRANKL QUOTES

• A human being is a deciding being.
• Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.
• Challenging the meaning of life is the truest expression of the state of being human.
• Each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible.
• Ever more people today have the means to live, but no meaning to live for.
• Everyone has his own specific vocation or mission in life; everyone must carry out a concrete assignment that demands fulfillment. Therein he cannot be replaced, nor can his life be repeated, thus, everyone's task is unique as his specific opportunity to implement it.
• Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human freedoms to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.
• Fear may come true that which one is afraid of.
• For the meaning of life differs from man to man, from day to day and from hour to hour. What matters, therefore, is not the meaning of life in general but rather the specific meaning of a person's life at a given moment.
• I recommend that the Statue of Liberty be supplemented by a Statue of Responsibility on the west coast.
• Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.
• Live as if you were living a second time, and as though you had acted wrongly the first time.
• Only to the extent that someone is living out this self transcendence of human existence, is he truly human or does he become his true self. He becomes so, not by concerning himself with his self's actualization, but by forgetting himself and giving himself, overlooking himself and focusing outward.
• The last of human freedoms - the ability to chose one's attitude in a given set of circumstances.
• Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that it is he who is asked.
• What is to give light must endure burning.
• When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves.
  

EMPIRE ERADICATES MAN'S SEARCH FOR MEANINGFULNESS

For too long we have been dreaming a dream from which we are now waking up: the dream that if we just improve the socioeconomic situation of people, everything will be okay, people will become happy.

The truth is that as the struggle for survival has subsided, the question has emerged: survival for what? Ever more people today have the means to live, but
no meaning to live for.

I'M DYING FOR THE SPIRIT OF EMPIRE TO DIE

I'M DYING FOR THE SPIRIT OF EMPIRE TO DIE, AND THE SPIRIT OF HUMANITY / KINDNESS / SISTERHOOD TO PREVAIL.

Yup. That's about how life is for me.

EMPIRE, THE ULTIMATE THREAT, JESUS DIED FIGHTING.

What would you do if you clearly saw something, that if not stopped, would destroy all of humanity?

Empire, the Spirit of Empire (Stuff, Superiority, Systems-Institutions (False Idols)) is that ultimate threat.

Jesus saw that ultimate threat.

Jesus could not resist fighting Empire to his death.

You?

GOD IS LIVID; FURIOUS. WE ARE OBSCENE.

I can't imagine it any other way.

God must be Livid, Furious at we 1% in the world that control 80% of the world's resources, God given resources; control them FOR OUR OWN BENEFIT.

We control Her resources so WE CAN HAVE MORE WHILE 80% of Her children:

• We Starve
• We Exploit
• We Oppress
• We Abuse
• We Bomb
• We Extort
• We Neglect

WE ARE OBSCENE

"[She who] would give light
must endure burning."
Eleanor Roosevelt

I suggest that this post is more of physics and physiology than of metaphysics or philosophy.

In brain surgery TARGETING is entirely crucial.

In saving the world / Iraq / Iran / Palestine / Congo / Cuba / Haiti / Darfur... TARGETING of our scarce energy is entirely crucial.

I submit to you that Nuclear Weapons / Bombing Iran / Darfur Genocide / Occupying Iraq / Bush / Katrina Neglect... are the SYMPTOMS, not the CANCER to be TARGETED.

The CANCER to be TARGETED
is the
SPIRIT of EMPIRE
in ourselves,
and that is devouring all Spirit of Humanity world-wide. The CLEANSING FIRE, THE SURGEON'S LASER BEAM TO BE AIMED WITH ENTIRE CARE, TO EMPYRE THE CANCER OF EMPIRE, IS
THE FIRE OF LOVE,
OF HUMANITY;
OUR HUMANITY.

I would EMPYRE Empire.
I would give Fire to the world,
a fire to entirely consume Empire
leaving the world blazing
with the Fire of Sisterly Love / Humanity.


Let's burn;
in time.

“Someday after mastering
winds, waves, tides and gravity,
we shall harness
the energies of love.
And then, for the
second time in the
history of the world,
man will discover
fire.”

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.


God willing I will have served my immediate purpose here at the Peace House and return to the 24 hour / day US Forces / Iran / Iraq Vigil at the Capitol Monday.

EMPIRE'S PRIMARY ATTACK POINT: LANGUAGE CORRUPTION

I'm coming to see that the (a?) primary means used by Empire to enslave the human being is to distort / corrupt / twist language. Examples:

• LOVE twisted to mean LUST.
• GOD AS LOVE LIFE TRUTH twisted to mean GOD AS STUFF, SUPERIORITY, SYSTEMS / INSTITUTIONS.
• CHURCH twisted to mean CLUB.
• GOD THE SPIRIT OF LOVE twisted to mean GOD EXCLUSIONARY BESTOWER OF INEQUITY.
• PATRIOTISM twisted to mean OBEDIENCE.
• LAW twisted to mean COMPLIANCE WITH ELITE INTERESTS.
• RELIGION twisted to mean ROAD TO SUPERIORITY OVER OTHERS.
• VOTE AS BALLOT twisted to mean VOTE AS $$$$
• NATIONAL INTERESTS twisted to mean EXPLOITATION OF FOREIGNERS.
• TERRORISTS twisted to mean THOSE THAT RESIST OPPRESSION.
• FAIRNESS twisted to mean LICENSE TO STARVE THE ALREADY STARVING POOR.
• CHRISTIAN twisted to mean HYPOCRITE PHARISEES.
• and on...
