'Loving, here: Massive disaster. WIFI finally Gone. Major rework of plans now.'

The sword has been dangling over my Work for years, many times the donated wifi appeared to be going away, I was told, point blank, that it was, and then a last minute reprieve.

I was just told again - it is going in hours or days now.  I didn't see a reprieve before, but I sure don't see one now.

Major regroup.  The electricity for being in front of the White House blaring pleas from our kids to kill Plan A-rmageddon, I've just cancelled the $400 battery that was 2 weeks late in shipping.  Gone.  Done.  Dead.

What now?  Internet cripple, that's for sure.  This cafe, their wifi is 1999 slowwwwww - unusable.  The DC library hours, wifi is fast there, but the hours are eratic, limited, and oh, what a grim place.  The Georgetown homeless-walkin center is a bit grim, fast wifi, looooooonnnnnnnggggggggg walk, very limited hours.

Hmmmmmm.  4G Wifi from Clear, $50 bucks per month, unlimited GB is what I needed. Gone now.

'Jesus' Religious Fundamentalism (and mine): Loving is Fundamental. EVERYTHING else, is NOT. EVER.' sLoving

It is unlikely that I or anyone can ever prove the correctness or incorrectness of, the post title, repeated here:

'Jesus' Religious Fundamentalism: Loving is Fundamental.  EVERYTHING else, is NOT. EVER.' .

Maybe.  However, I perceive, my hunch is, that within the above post title is the Absolute Truth, the Objective, Scientific Truth of our DNA, and that Jesus was onto it, and saw it as the one, True Religion, as written in our DNA, that allowed us to survive, and flourish, as a species:

1.  Love All Creation / God, with your whole heart, mind and soul,

2.  Love every person, born, and to be born, and,

3.  FULL STOP. Any and every #3 that you or I add to 1 and 2 as your / my Religion will be the death of you / me, those around you, and ultimately the species, just as allowing any dirt whatsoever on the otherwise clean scalpel will eventually be death. That is to say, anything and everything raised to, or elevated above, Loving, and thereby displacing Loving, is instant Spiritual Death to the individual, and eventual death to the species.

This is simply to say, to hypothesize, that the fundamental adaptive feature responsible for the fact that the human species has not yet gone extinct is that our central feature is that by virtue of our DNA, above all else, we were born to, we were created to be Universally, Unconditionally Loving.  This is a provable, or disprovable hypothesis, but not with today's technology.  We just don't have the instrumentation to be able to prove or disprove this hypothesis, yet, not that anyone does or will care enough to ever try.

But my writing and speaking for years is filled with the evidence I see throughout human history of this in the lives, including our own, that we admire, and conversely, in the lives we revile.  My views on this are arduously searchable on this site, http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/, and I'll not repeat them here.

This is a massive Revelation for me, this #3 above.  It is all 1-3 written in my bones, and has been yanking me around, jerking me around, ever more explicitly as each year passed, since I was born.  But it was only this morning, after days, weeks, and months of a Dear Friend acting as unwitting midwife, that it was Born, so I could clearly see it.  My deep apologies to the unwitting midwife.  I didn't know I was in labor, till the Birth this morning.

I am fundamentally sure that this was Jesus Teaching, 1, 2, and #3, and that this was the Religion He died to make explicit, and available to us.  Virtually all disagree with me.

What I am even more Certain of, is that:

A. It is My Religion, and that I am so certain that it is the one and only salvation for all of Humanity, that

B. I will spend the rest of my days, every breath, every minute, Preaching, in deed and word, this Gospel of Loving, whatever the personal price to me - complete solitude, death, whatever.  This is Loving's version of Dr. King's,  'But if not."  Anything less than this from me would be Betrayal, Abandonment by me of you, of all creation, and that I will not, cannot do.  I will with every breath, in deed and word, strive to Preach the Gospel:

1.  Love All Creation / God, with your whole heart, mind and soul,

2.  Love every person, born, and to be born, and,

3.  FULL STOP. Any and every #3 that you or I add to 1 and 2 as your / my Religion will be the death of you / me, those around you, and ultimately the species, just as allowing any dirt whatsoever on the otherwise clean scalpel will eventually be death. That is to say, anything and everything raised to, or elevated above, Loving, and thereby displacing Loving, is instant Spiritual Death to the individual, and eventual death to the species.

I've tried EVERYTHING else.  I highly recommend, the above.

det 'The barriers to Partnership of Heart, near infinite. Why we're probably doomed.' sLoving

Almost every word ever spoken by so called chr'stians about how one can only be 'Saved' in 'Jesus'' name, are utter rubbish, voodoo, pagan mysticism, etc. HOWEVER, there IS a meaning among all such words, that is utterly True.  No one OF the Heart, by whatever name, by whatever creed, or no creed at all, No one, Of the Heart can see Jesus, if they can see Him clearly, they cannot see Him as other than a desirable Partner in Work, a Brother, a child of Our Father, Embodying Our Father, Love, Heart... by whatever name, in just the way Gandhi did, the Hindu, for example.

This is much on my mind at this moment because months of moving toward the most promising Working Partnership of the Heart, that I've ever seen prospects for myself of, is on the brink of moving forward, or, may just have terminated, DESPITE the fact that the subject of the first paragraph is, I'm quite sure, OBSERVED in the relationship.  That is, termination may have already, just occurred, despite the fact that both parties are Profoundly of the Heart, as near as I can discern.

What this is Teaching me is that being of the Heart is Necessary, but not Sufficient to a Partnership, a Trusting, Powerful, Working relationship.  I don't recall ever getting close enough, this far along, toward the type of Partnership Jesus died to bring us into, to have learned this, or the following lessons.  But if ever again I have the opportunity for a Divine Partnership, I'll be the Wiser, in the following ways, at least:

1.  Being of the Heart, where Love is the Sole, Supreme Value is Utterly, Totally, Absolutely Necessary to the Divine, Hopeful, potentially Creation-saving Partnership, but NOT Sufficient, by itself!  I thought it was Sufficient!  But I was incorrect; ignorant of the Truth.

2.  The Model of what Is and Is NOT Necessary to Partnership, that I would hope to put forth next time, that I did NOT put forth this time, would be my understanding of the following -

a.  That Gandhi, a devout Hindu, Partnered fully and completely with a Christian Pastor (name I don't know).  Each would say that their Religious beliefs were extremely important to them, but their Behavior Put the Lie to that. Harsh words here, I know, but this is a really important point.  We can only, Truly see what is Important, Central to us, Really, in what we Do.  And there is Everything to suggest that in Truth, ALL that was Central to Gandhi, and all that was Central to the Being of the Pastor, was, to use Jesus way of framing the same thing - 1. Loving God / All Creation, and 2.  Loving Every Human.

b.  I may be taking unwarranted liberties with my limited knowledge with the following, but I think not.  Teresa of Calcutta, the Catholic, and Gandhi, the Hindu, were contemporaries in India.  I know of no time that they Partnered together in Work.  But based on everything I know this was 100% a matter of logistical barriers, prior Callings to different Work, and NOT a matter of any remotely important difference in their Core Beliefs, their Core Being, their True Religion which for both, was Loving.  And they did speak of each other, and what they said, to me, revealed completely the Respect of One Partner for another Partner - their 'Religious' differences were really, Really, NO DIFFERENCES AT ALL, to them!

c.  Once, and only once, Jesus gave us an example of the Perfect Partner.  Yes, these are my words, and my understanding, and of course, you are welcome to disagree, but to me it is Crystal Clear.  The Example He gave us of the Perfect Partner was the Good Samaritan - someone of a profoundly different 'Belief System,' 'Religion,' than Jesus.  Totally and completely unimportant to Jesus were these differences.  ALL that mattered to Jesus, the entirety of his Religion, was Loving.

I could go on, but if I can make the point, it is made above.

3.  Language, Thought Process, Means of Communicating, Communication Process CAN BE SO DIFFERENT, EVEN BETWEEN TWO PEOPLE OF THE HEART, THAT PARTNERSHIP IS PRACTICALLY SPEAKING, IMPOSSIBLE, OR TOO DIFFICULT, OR TO INEFFICIENT TO BE APPROPRIATE.  This is my most fundamental learning from my recent Divine experience in moving toward Working Partnership, regardless of how it turns out.  Well, if one thinks of two people Totally of the Heart -  one that speaks only French, and not a word of another language, and the other person that speaks German, and not a word of any other language, COULD they Partner?  YES!  Would it be wise?  PROBABLY NOT!  Impractical!  The barriers to communication would be sooooo huge that far more time would be lost in the attempt than could justify the benefits!

How my ignorance of these issues will play out in my current situation, what was a prospective Partnership, I don't know.  But in these lessons, and in countless other ways, I am profoundly Strengthened, Enriched, Empowered by the time we've spent thus far.

Israeli Propagandist: Israel and Palestine conflict should never be compared to Holocaust daily nebraskan

Loving, comment:  Wow, this from a leading academic institution?  Oh goodness, we are in trouble.  And what argument will you conjure to rule off limits per se such comparisons as, hmmm, comparing the Spanish, American extermination of 12 million American Indians with the Holocaust, or cancer of the brain with cancer of the lung, or Enron's destroying the wealth of masses with Wall Streets destroying of the wealth of masses...?  There are reasons to rule off limits per se, all these things, but the pursuit of Truth is impoverished if the examination is prevented or INTIMIDATED.  What you are arguing is that for whatever reason, we should carefully, religiously, Sacredly, mysteriously restrict learning from one of the most inhumane events in all human history, the Holocaust, to honor and protect the memory of the victims? Huh?  No.  Honoring the victims is to find the guts, the courage, the stamina to honestly, relentlessly try to understand the atrocity, injustice, inhumanity of the Holocaust in every relevant context so that it happens 'Never Again.'  This is obvious, except to those that relentlessly DisHonor the Holocaust victims by using the Holocaust as a brutal propaganda weapon to enable right wing Israeli's and their supporters to visit whatever cruel illegalities and brutality on our Palestinian brothers and sisters.  http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com
