REBIRTH / BORN AGAIN / SAVED = REGAINING YOUR HUMANITY.
That's the entirety of it. There ain't any more.
Jesus was dying for it.
Me too.

VIOLENCE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FLESH, BLOOD, OR STUFF, per se.

WHEN IS A CELL NOT CANCEROUS? WHEN IT IS NOT CANCEROUS.
If these March posts are not nasty, elitist, egotistical, hurtful ramblings then it is because Cancer is Cancer, Health is Health and they are entirely opposite.
A cell that is just a little bit cancerous is CANCEROUS, and Death is the result of glossing over the distinction.
Our western, free market, profit oriented, parasitic culture THRIVES/DEPENDS on GLOSSING OVER THE DISTINCTION.

"CRUCIFIERS" = "CHRISTIANS"
The cURCH has been crucifying the real Jesus for 1900 years. How else do you explain that there are no Christlikes to speak of? Only pagans and mamonist-jews dressed up like Jesus.
The single greatest triumph of Empire.

CANCER SURGEON: "I CAME NOT TO UNITE, BUT TO DIVIDE WITH A SWORD."
(Luke 12:51) - "Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division...."
From now on, I pray, me too, that ALL may Live, that ALL may be Saved.
Our InHumanity MUST be CLEARLY DIVIDED from our Humanity that we may "see" our InHumanity to which we are willfully blind, and Heal each other.
BIRTH is NOT a PEACEFUL process.

cHRISTIAN cHURCH: JESUS-ZOO / FREAK SHOW
A house of wax, a wax museum at best - more truly a zoo or prison where what is left of God / Jesus is kept safely imprisoned, totally harmless to the State, to be visited rarely and safely on occasion to enable our cancerous delusions to flourish unimpeded; and flourish they have.
THE ONLY THING WORTH dYING FOR: TO AVOID Death
" Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it..." John 12, 24
The only thing I seem to fear for years now is the dEATH of Humanity - mine, yours, everyone's, anyone's. I've felt entirely willing to dIE to avoid your Death or mine, for a long time now.
No qualms what soever, that I am aware of, for years now.

HUMANITY: WHEN YOUR HIGHEST STANDARD IS YOUR ONLY STANDARD
WHEN YOU NO LONGER HAVE "DOUBLE STANDARDS," THAT IS HUMANITY.
"NORMAL:" KING IS NORMAL, GANDHI IS NORMAL...
Sorry, no time for P.C.
Imagine you are born in a leper colony that has been isolated totally from any other part of the world. All you've ever known or heard about were lepers.
You were born into a spiritual leper colony that has been isolated for all intents and purposes from Healthy Life for maybe 5ooo years now - since the dawn of CIVILIZATION (with the exception of the indigenous tribes we so relentlessly and ruthlessly destroy).
Gandhi is SPECIES NORMAL.
King is SPECIES NORMAL.
Wilson, Wright, Arbeiter, Goodman... are SPECIES NORMAL.
You and I are Spiritual Lepers.
But we can and must heal ourselves... NOW.

CARBON FOOTPRINT? NO. CONSUMPTION FOOTPRINT.
40 years ago the notion of reducing our "carbon footprint" may have been appropriate.
But that time is gone.
Survival of the species depends on immediate, heroic, life-or-death pursuit of ZERO NET CONSUMPTION FOOTPRINT.
Like EVERY successful life-form we must NOW PRODUCE MORE THAN WE CONSUME - FOR THE ENTIRE BODY OF HUMANITY.

ENCOURAGEMENT OR ENABLEMENT? START'S SIN (ERROR.) SORRY.
I'm a slow learner. You must forgive me.
To those of you to whom I now seem horribly brusque, short, impatient, unkind ... the truth is I've been criminally, cowardly patient, timid, tentative, pleasant for decades, unable to discern between what I had intended - encouragement - with what I've actually delivered - ENABLEMENT.
I knew no better. I know better now.
More patience, timidity, pleasantry, kindness from me will kill you by ENABLING you the delusion that we have more time.
Forgive me.
No more enabling.
The toughest Love I can muster is, I pray, all you can expect from me.

The best Total friend, the most promising PeaceWarrior I've ever met terminated our relationship recently, selecting Empire over Humanity; you know, American VALUES.
Heshe has for years demonstrated extraordinary courage in standing near to me as no one else would or could. It was more than anyone could bear. "I believe in you," heshe said out of the blue just 2 months ago.
What happened? Saturation / time took its toll. Empire is merciless. BUT BEYOND THAT my nails grew extremely long (the war to save a fellow PeaceWarrior totally absorbed me for months) and that was the final straw. The camel's back broke. (After years, the PeaceWarrior I attempted to Save is in recovery.)
I THINK WHAT HAPPENED WAS heshe was unknowingly thinking for all those years, "Start represents the right EVOLUTION/IMPROVEMENT on our Western / "Christian" value system." But finally with the long nails, heshe saw that I REPRESENT TOTAL REBUKE OF, AN ENTIRE REJECTION OF, A COMPLETE REVOLUTION OF VALUES TO REPLACE THE EXISTING VALUE SYSTEM.
"Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: "What did you go out into the desert to see? A reed swayed by the wind? A man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who wear expensive clothes and indulge in luxury are in palaces [MIDDLE CLASS SUBURBS]. But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet." "
We are on the verge of Armageddon ENTIRELY BECAUSE of the VALUES of our Western "Civilization."
The burden of proof, along with the Lives of everyone you love, born and unborn, is on YOU not me.

THE ""CHOSEN: WHAT "THE LEAST OF THESE" MAKES OF THE LIVING
THE CHOSEN: WHAT "THE LEAST OF THESE" MAKES OF THE LIVING.
"Many are called, but few are CHOSEN," taught Jesus.
I never understood this until recently. Here it is.
True example: A year ago dozens of folks are on a subway platform. A white fella passes out and falls perpendicularly on the tracks as a train was rushing into the station (the least of these). A black fella jumped down, moving them both between the tracks, and lay on top of him. Asked later why he did it the answer was, "He was me," or some such thing.
All the onlookers were "Called" by their eyes and Humanity to act. But only one was Chosen by the situation - irresistibly grabbed - Chosen by the situation.
But among the onlookers and and subsequent News Paper readers - maybe next time more will be Chosen. That's how it works. Humanity breeds Humanity. Inhumanity breeds Inhumanity.
Gandhi was Chosen, and then others.
Civil Rights Marchers were Chosen, and then others....
All hope lies with the Chosen.
ps: Want to be among the "Chosen," the Living? Keep yourself among the-least-of-these; entirely. Or you and all you love WILL be Dead and maybe dEAD too.

SO THOSE YEARNING TO BE BORN CAN FIND THEM: WHY HOLY MEN LIVE IN REMOTE CAVES
I don't undertand this, but I suddenly recognize it to be true.
Somehow, the gurus, the prophets, the Saviors cannot be found unless they are remote. I've been fighting this lesson for decades.
Have I finally learned? Is it too late?
The Almighty knows.

There are infinite ways of doing this. This site is entirely about it.
There are infinite alternatives TO DOING this; which is the purpose of our Western Capitalist Religion - DIVERSIONS.
EVERYTING of hope will explicitly target GENERATING HUMANITY.
Everything else will doom humanity.

YOU AWAKE? THEN YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL WAR
Dr. King called it an internal "civil war."
Relative to your Joy, Quality of Life, and the existence of the human species YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A PSYCHOLOGICAL WAR 100% OF THE TIME:
The only other possibility given the constraints of our DNA-given psychology is the side of your Humanity, by whatever name. This is the side that King, Gandhi, Jesus, Wilson, Wright, Arbeiter... and others are on.
Selfishness has all but won.
What will you tell your children, your dearest ones, if you get the chance, about what side you were on?

"CHRISTIAN" IS BY NOW A USELESS ABORTION. "CHRISTLIKE" IS WHAT WE MUST PURSUE.
"CHRISTIAN" IS BY NOW A MURDEROUS ABORTION, just like the word "Hospital" for the physically impaired in Nazi Germany.
"CHRISTLIKE" IS WHAT WE MUST PURSUE.
This is no more "religious" than would the the concept "TigerWoodsLike" for a golfer.
Let's get real.

LOVE GOES ON. ANYTHING LESS GETS DISCOURAGED AND STOPS.
From personal experience, mine and YOURS, think about it.
Isn't there someone that you Love so much that nothing, no sacrifice, no wound, no hurt, nothing short of physical death could stop you from serving them in time of critical need?
That, THAT is Love. Nothing less is Love.
If you get Discouraged, re-discover your Love for the Least-of-These our suffering sistersbrothers.
Love goes on, until Pulse stops. Even then Love goes on... forever. Think Gandhi, King, Jesus.

"INTENTIONAL COMMUNITIES:" THEIR DESTRUCTION IS IN THEIR ATTEMPT.
Intentional Community - CANCER is an Intentional Community of sorts. It is a sub-group that sets itself off from the BODY. Any such life form WILL die, because the group becomes divorced from a Living body. (Oh, this is a LOT more than cute metaphor.)
The only true Community is the COMMUNITY OF HEROIC SERVICE TO THE ENTIRE BODY OF HUMANITY: Code Pink, Doctors Without Borders, M.A.S.H. unit....
Everything else is a form of cancer, and will die as it kills the Entire Body.

LOVE: IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE. IMPOSSIBLE, IF YOU LOST IT, IT WASN'T LOVE.
Another critical aspect of this power, Love, that is our only hope:
LOVE: IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE. IMPOSSIBLE, IF YOU LOST IT, IT WASN'T LOVE. It was some form of Lust, or an illusion.

"FOLLOW ME... LOSE EVERTHING:" INCREDIBLE BLESSING
Jesus is who the quotes allude to.
Well, I though by now I'd lost everything. Boy was I wrong. The folks that have been an unbelievable God-send to me for the last 8 years have terminated our relationship. What a crushing blow.
I bleed profusely every day over this.
But, as suggested by the saying, "If it doesn't kill you, you grow," it is an unbelievable blessing.
I am now freer of illusion and constraints than ever I have been. I am freer to see and tell the Truth than ever I have been.
I am freer now to serve these beloved friends, and all my sistersbrothers than ever before I have been, now.
No, there is not a particle of bitterness.
Jesus was correct in every sense.

"SOLIDARITY WITH:" THE ALTERNATIVE TO LONELINESS
I've spent most of the years of my adult life in the midst of folks that did not Love me - especially the person I was married to for 26 years.
I was excruciatingly LONELY until after 17 years or so I realized that if I Loved, if I was in solidarity with her (or anyone / everyone) the LONELINESS was instantly eliminated.
And NO, neither before nor after did I every witness on particle of Solidarity / Love from her to me. Unnecessary to the elimination of Loneliness. Love. Be in Solidarity with the least of these. You will NEVER be Lonely again.
This is a psychological fact. NOTHING else is certain to eliminate true Loneliness as is Solidarity WITH others; all others.
Only YOU can prevent this.

FAIRNESS/JUSTICE IS NOT HUMANITY. OTHERWISE WE'D LET OUR TODDLERS STARVE.\
"From each according to herhis ability; To each according to herhis need." The parable of the Master that paid a living wage to the ones that worked all day and the ones hired late in the day. THIS IS NOT FAIR. THIS IS NOT JUST. THIS IS HUMANITY.
We've got so little time left. We must make every second count. Love, not Fairness or Justice must be the center of every effort. Justice, Fairness and the like are too little, too late.
Love = Our Humanity is the only power that can get us through.
The following quote from Colman McCarthy does not prove the point, but it hints at it:
"The absence of Love; that is what all laws are."

LOVE IS UNIVERSAL. NOT UNIVERSAL? DOUBLE STANDARDS? NOT LOVE.
OK. Think of the person for whom you have the most unconditional, altruistic Love / Agape.
That is Love. EVERYTHING ELSE, EVERYTHING LESS IS SOME FORM OF LUST. Is Lust bad? Lust IS NOT LOVE, is not that power we must harness to save humankind.
You must become Christlike, now, or there is no hope for us. Become hypersensitive to any Double-Standards within you, and allow the lesser standards to expire through relentless neglect.
