GOOD NEWS!!! The Truth is: Life, out of Love, Sacrifices for JOY

Gospel as we know means "Good News!" But what is the good news??????? Well, maybe as the cHURCH says it is that one can go to Heaven after death. I've never believed this and I never will. I've always believed that it had to do with THIS life, THIS earth, and I've been sure of it because the more I've joined Jesus in His work the more heavenly my life has been. But, I believed there was an answer to the question - What's the Good News? And I couldn't express it. NOW I CAN!!!!!!!!!!!

THE GOOD NEWS!!!! ...
TRUTH IS: LIFE OUT OF LOVE, SACRIFICES FOR HUMANITY, FOR JOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
! "If you lose [sacrifice] your life you gain it; if you hold on to your life [refuse to sacrifice it] you lose it!!!!!!!!!" Jesus.

Now I can articulate it!!!!!!! Now maybe I can learn to express it beyond my own actions, before I pass on!!!!!!! Boy, that would be great!

GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!

THE BOTTOM LINE: WAGE LOVE, PROFIT HUMANITY, REAP JOY

1. Wage Love - this is what you were designed to do - as is all life - to Wage Love/Creation/Goodness.
2. Profit Humanity - avoid the murderous lie that our "family" is some subset of Humanity. Every single one of History's heroes sets the lie to this - King, Gandhi, Jesus, Romero.... Avoid the cancerous lie of western civilization, aided and abetted by the cHURCH that it is OK to Profit FROM others. This is a direct perversion of Jesus teaching and life. Life PROFITS OTHERS. Period.
3. Reap the uninterrupted flow of the chemical/psychological coctail Joy - Heaven, "Our Father's Kingdom," Nirvana... by whatever name.

There is not much else that the greats teach. There is not much else to know.

Will waste a lifetime, like me, discovering this path?

Will you discover it and walk the path now in time to lead others?

THE RELENTLESS PURSUIT OF JOY IS THE ONLY HOPE OF SALVATION

  1. An inescapable aspect of the human condition is that we cannot NOT seek our greatest self interest.
  2. An ALMOST inescapable aspect of our Religion of Consumerism is that WE ARE TOTALLY MISINFORMED ABOUT OUR SELFINTEREST. We've been told that PLEASURE is the ultimate, when in fact it is JOY.
  3. JOY is the FUEL of the PERPETUAL LIFE/LOVE/TRUTH/SALVATION engine. No? If not there is no hope. If not Jesus was wrong; King was wrong; Gandhi was wrong.

"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

"Success" - WAYYYYYY TOO COWARDLY A GOAL

What!?!?!?!?! "Success" is our RELIGION!!!!! Cowardly??!??!!?!?!?!? Weak!?!?!?!?!?!?

A mother works to lift a car off of her pinned child. Is her measure "success?"

HER MEASURE IS 'TOTAL COMMITMENT TO THE ATTEMPT." And this it ALWAYS is with Love / Life / Truth / Courage.

"Courage is doing what needs to be done regardless of the likely outcome." Alfred Adler

"Full effort is full success." Gandhi

"Nothing great ever happens without a committed, maniacal champion." Tom Peters

"Never think that a small group of COMMITTED people can't change the world. It is the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead.

"Never think that a committed individual can't change the world. It is the only thing that ever has." Start Loving

BE WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE

BE WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE.


This is what Gandhi was getting toward: "Be the change you want to see."

Example is NOT the major thing. EXAMPLE is the ONLY THING.

"Example is NOT the major thing in influencing people. EXAMPLE is the ONLY THING in influencing people."

Albert Schweitzer
1952 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate

Now, this is nonsense, unless what is at stake is changing/saving the world, in which case we delude ourselves any longer, and doom our posterity beyond any possibility of recovery.

Stop Thinking,
Stop Talking,
Start Loving.

YOU WILL, YOU DO WAGE. IS IT LOVE/LIFE or HATEfulness/CANCER?

"It is not a question of whether we will [wage,] be extremists. The question is whether we will [wage] be extremists for love or extremists for [wage] hate." Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

There are two basic forms of animated existence:
1. Healthy Life - that which Wages Life/Love/Good/Creation; that which reaps JOY.
2. Cancer - that which Wages Death/Neglect/Evil/Destruction; that which reaps PLEASURE.

There are no other options - not in this world of 5 of every 6 people in agony; not in this world where most of the people you know - for every $30 you spend, $29 are excess $ that your poor brothers, sisters and children needed just to survive a dignified life; every 14 hours you are awake, 13 hours you spend on what 5 billion people know as unreachable luxuries.

PLEASURE MARKS DEATH/HATEfulness/Evil as JOY MARKS LIFE/LOVE/TRUTH

Psychology as predestined by our DNA is the entirety of my interest, and a lifelong honest search for the Truth will lead one to this shocking conclusion:

PLEASURE MARKS DEATH/HATEfulness
as
JOY MARKS LIFE/LOVE/TRUTH

Now I haven't the time to argue that there is not some theoretically possible future world where all want and ignorance have been eliminated and the above law no longer holds, but today it does.

The proof? You are in Calcutta about to go into a stall with $20, just enough for a famed meal that you have been relishing! But before your eyes a mother with 3 starving kids is beaten and the only Dr. available insists she will not help unless $20 is paid in advance.

PLEASURE insists you spend the $20 on yourself. HOW HATEFUL THIS WOULD BE.

JOY insists you give the $20 to your sister's Dr.

Joy, as always when presented clearly wins.

But within the last day, probably, you caved to PLEASURE many times, with consequences seen by your POOR family JUST as HATEful as the above scenario.

Where do you think 9/11 came from? YOUR HATEful behavior due to your slavery to PLEASURE.

IF I'M NOT SPENDING MY LIFE FOR MY FAMILY I AM PART OF THE PROBLEM (or they're not my family)

"... the fulfillment of the Father's will depends on each man's effort and striving to make people see that life is given, not for oneself personally, but for the fulfillment of the Father's will, which alone saves from death and gives life." from Jesus, "Gospel in Brief," Leo Tolstoy

A dear friend reminded me that an activist shehe knows first lost eyesight and later mind due to Hunger Strikes. Now I don't expect that will happen to me, although I realize it might.

But it got me thinking. If when my family is being raped, pillaged and murdered by folks with the most cruel and deadly weapons ever conceived; by the bullies we all grew up with in school turned loose with $3 billion of your tax dollars to do the job, YOU RISK YOUR LIFE TO STOP IT! DON'T YOU?

And the US Forces, Irsnians and Iraqis ARE my family.

Hmmm. I'm surprised it has taken me so long. This riddle has been trying to fully solve itself within me for years - "How do you live in the face of Genocide?" "How do you live in the face of your country being the world's Terrorist?"

IF I'M NOT RISKING/SPENDING LIFE, LIMB AND TREASURE I AM PART OF THE PROBLEM.

THE ENTIRE REASON FOR YOUR EXISTANCE - TO SERVE THE LEAST OF THESE.

If this is true, and it is, entirely because this is true of all non-cancerous life, think of the implications. How much of your Life is in line with this? Unless your life is entirely in violation of what society values - ALMOST NONE OF YOUR LIFE IS IN LINE WITH THIS.

IF your life is entirely in violation of what society values - YOUR LIFE IS IN LINE WITH THIS AND YOU ARE FULL OF JOY, and you just might save the world!!!! What? An enormous crystal can grow from one perfect seed. Enormous areas of burned flesh can be restored from just a few healthy cells. Your body started with just ONE cell that became 2...4...8.....trillions.

ROSETTA STONE: HUMANITY/LOVE IS ALL-OUT-WAR ON IN/UNHUMANITY OF CONDITION AND / OR COMMISSION

ROSETTA STONE OF HUMAN LIFE/JOY/PROSPERITY/SURVIVAL:

HUMANITY/LOVE IS ALL-OUT-WAR ON IN/UNHUMANITY OF CONDITION AND / OR COMMISSION.


I think that this difficult phrase above is:
  1. The entirety of what "Peace" efforts are searching to become, and how they need to be conceived. This is the core "physics" we must master.
  2. The entire "physics" that Jesus died to reveal to us.
  3. The entire "path" that our DNA would have us pursue 7/24 and for which it will pump the optimum reward - Joy.
  4. The essential core of everything Gandhi, Tolstoy, King... was searching to master/understand.
Terms:
  • InHumanity: no explanation needed.
  • UnHumanity: Neglect, irresponsibility, denial... THE MASS MURDERER of the modern times orders of magnitude more than InHumanity: why we pay taxes for war; why we use our God given gifts for middle-class houses instead of to eliminate poverty, ignorance and disease....
  • In/UnHumanity of Condition: A chld having insufficient healthy food due to a drought is an example - the Cause is secondary.
  • In/UnHumanity of Commission: Bush/Cheney causing a war to destroy Iraq so they can rape and plunder for themselves and their overprivelaged buddies.
  • Humanity: Love
  • Love: Humanity

HUMANITY AND IN/UNHUMANITY. NOT NONVIOLENCE AND VIOLENCE.

I've long been horrified at how crippling is the language, how cripplingly inadequate are conceptualizations used within the so-called Peace Movement:
  • Peace (nothing that is alive has "peace." A rock has peace.)
  • Non-violent (humans/life cannot be "non" - impossible, we are goal-seeking creatures, inescapably.)
  • Resistance (deathly weak, disabling - defines life solely in terms of its opposition)...
  • Violence - all life IS violence!!!!! Your heart is at war, your cells are at war, a mother giving birth is at war.... GET OVER IT!

Here is the entire Truth we've been groping for; this is the DNA for any and every PeaceBuilding effort of promise; this is the core Physics:

HUMANITY is the Truth/word / Concept we've been searching for in place of Peace, non-violence, resistance...!!!!

IN/UNHUMANITY is the Truth/word / concept we've been searching for in place of Violence.

This is Huge - possibly the most important contribution to yet come through me.

YES my writing here is entirely inadequate. But I'm out of time now. YOU need to think about it. PLEASE. NOW.

More later.

JESUS' GOALS WENT FROM MODEST TO EXTREMELY MODEST

I never saw this. It has been there for me to see all along, but I never saw.

Jesus NEVER saw what I imagined and have been living/striving for - that the entire world would become Christlike; the Romans would become Christlike. No! I imposed this (with a little help from the Apostles, Paul in particular): THE APOSTLE'S MURDEROUS SIN: THEY CHANGED THE STANDARD

His starting goal was to convert all Jews to Christlikeness. Jesus goal SHRUNK as time went along - He saw that all / most Jews would REJECT Him, but that a few Gentiles would embrace Christlikeness!

Sleeper Cells (hi my NSA brothers), THIS is what Jesus aspired to; saw as possible. Right? I've got to go back and read his words, but I'm almost certain now that this is what Jesus lived and taught.

My goals must be Jesus goals, not Paul's delusion. Sleeper Cells of Christlikes.

A group (very sick) that years ago I came within seconds of joining, "Twelve Tribes," got this part of it right, that Jesus was about a small subsegment of the population (many will be called but few Chosen), but they emphasize all the stuff from Paul about line of succession, and all the other witch-doctory like "Profess with your lips," "Baptism," and other lip-service junk.

THE APOSTLE'S MURDEROUS SIN: THEY CHANGED THE STANDARD

Well, if I could convince folks that I was the same as the greatest Marine of all time, I could then water down the standard and declare millions or billions "Marines" and think how wildly popular I'd be. I mean, the millions or billions would PAY me part of their salary for such a "freebie."

I never saw it. This is what the Apostles did. They changed Jesus standard of "lay down your life for your brother," etc. to "Profess Jesus as your lord and savior," and other such murderous drivel.

I accuse them of no malice. In fact I've easily lived the trap, their trap, since rediscovering Jesus 10 years ago.

But in this single act they set in motion the real Crucification of Jesus and it has continued for 1900 years.

}}}}}}} "THE END OF AMERICA," by Naomi Wolf {{{{{{{

The most important book of these last 8 years (NY Times best seller):

“The End of America”: Feminist Social Critic Naomi Wolf Warns U.S. in Final Descent into Fascism
(20 minutes)

In her new book, “The End of America: Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot”, Naomi Wolf says the United States is on the road to becoming a fascist society, right under our very noses. Wolf outlines what she sees as the ten steps to shut down a democratic society and argues that the Bush administration has already implemented many of these steps. Wolf is the author of several books including the 1990s feminist classic, “The Beauty Myth.” [includes rush transcript]

TODAY'S MASS TERRORISTS: THE MIDDLE CLASS

My US sistersbrothers,

We've all thought how horrible it is that US CEOs make 30-300 times what their workers make, right?

Look in the mirror. YOU are that CEO to 4 billion of your family. YOU make 30-3000 times what 4 billion of your brothers and sisters make.

Why do these 4 billion put up with that? The US Military you fund Starves and Kills them into submission.

So far.

You, you middle class, are a deliberate creation of the power elite at the beginning of the 2oth century. The power elite realized that the only way to protect their own wealth was to create a large buffer to crush the poor - the middle class. They created you, they bought you, and they (not God) own you.

Read Zinn's "People's History" for more.

LIKE ME, JESUS WAS AN APOCALYPTIC. WAS HE WRONG?

A must read is "Jesus Before Christianity," by scholar Albert Nolan. Nolan is among others like Tolstoy, Gandhi and others that WORSHIPED Jesus for his in-this-life truth, the way a physicist might worship Einstein.

Nolan is clear that Jesus was an apocalyptic. The world didn't end? For the Jews it did, within 40 years - their civilization was entirely destroyed - Holocaust.

He died the Save them. They ignored Him.

He died to Save us. We ignore Him.

How much longer?

EVEN THE BEST OF US ACTS LIKE WE HAVE MONTHS OR YEARS LEFT. WE CAN'T COUNT ON IT ANY LONGER.

Democracy Now! | “The End of America


Administration pushes regulatory changes


US charges Iran behind renewed violence in Iraq

Just how much evidence do you need that we are out of time?
  1. Do you know that atomic misiles are not on the way to Iran at this instant?
  2. Do you know that the next "false flag" operation (after 9/11) is not already underway to enable an immediate, full Police State?
  3. Do you know that we have more than weeks left to launch drastic climate-saving measures before the incineration is irreversable?
Me either.

How many Nazi Germans lamented that they waited too long to act?

(there are no Allies to save us this time)

JESUS' ENIRE MESSAGE: LOVE IS UNIVERSAL OR IT IS NOT LOVE.

JESUS' ENTIRE MESSAGE: LOVE IS UNIVERSAL OR IT IS NOT LOVE.

If this is NOT Jesus' ENTIRE message, why did He come?

The ENTIRETY of our hope is BEYOND our immediate family, beyond our Social group, beyond our cHURCH, beyond our ethnic group, beyond our nationality....

OUR ENTIRE HOPE LIES BEYOND. Jesus died solely to tell us this.

So far we've entirely ignored Him.

Time's up.

ALMOST EVERY HERO I KNOW OF TODAY IS FEMALE.

Col. Ann Wright FEMALE
Diane Wilson FEMALE
Desiree Ali-Fairooz FEMALE
Laurie Arbeiter FEMALE
Amy Goodman FEMALE
Gael Murphy FEMALE
Margaret McKenna FEMALE

John Pilger MALE

SPIRIT IS EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING ELSE IS DEADLY, DISTRACTING DELUSION.

You do not know if you are really in the Matrix, nor do I.

I do now finally seem to know through years of experience that I am a Spiritual / Psychological being; as are we all.

Jesus entirely knew this, as did King and Gandhi.

We can never be anything else. Only delusion says different.

Murderous delusion.

The idea of an afterlife is ridiculous.

The idea of immortality is entirely correct.

Gandhi is alive. King is alive. Jesus is alive. Hitler is alive.

START'S ELITISM, EXCLUSIVITY, CONDESCENTION , EGOCENTRISM....

START'S ELITISM, EXCLUSIVITY, CONDESCENTION , EGOCENTRISM....

You are a Doctor and everyone you love including yourself becomes afflicted with a murderous plague of unknown cause and without a known cure; but through no fault of your own you are healed. How do you feel? Superior? Smug? Relieved you don't have it? Proud? Special? Elite? Chosen? You are frantic. Chosen? Yes, in the sense that you are totally seized by the need - every fiber of your being - to Save those you Love. You would, you will give your life in the attempt to give Life to your loved ones - to accurately diagnose the cause and to formulate a cure, to BECOME THE CURE - in time. What if due to the nature of the disease and the nature of the cure your loved ones look on with horror at the potential cure and revile you, detest you, ridicule and dismiss you for the attempt? Do you do everything within your Rights and power to develop and administer it anyway? What if they will hate you for it? Abandon you? Reject and despise you? Pitty you? Yes, you proceed anyway. Me too.
