That is to say it is not actually science in the classical sense. <br />
Science is a tool for categorizing things. For discovering how they work. <br />
Systemics is an attempt to collect these ideas into working systems. <br />

The study of ecosystems or evolutionary paths may be considered systemics, even if it is sold as classical science. <br /><br />
Life systems, which would include many modern biological studies, falls into this category. Each individual aspect of biology is studying and pieced together to map a whole, functional system. <br />
Each functional aspect is studied in detail, and the relation and function in tandem with those systems (again) is mapped. <br />
Through this kind of thinking we are able to see all the various, myriad interactions between biological systems such as reproduction, the digestive process, cellular development, the immune system, and so on and so forth. <br />
One are given a great deal of attention is the reproductive system. The functions and interaction of this system with others is extremely well mapped. We know how it effects the entire biology. We know what it is for. <br />
This interest only makes sense. We want to understand our personal genesis. <br />
What does not make sense, on the surface, is how death is rejected as part of this system. <br />
Obviously death is important. Obviously death has profound effect on the individual in question, and on those who know them. But death is seen only as the end of the system, and is not credited with any function. Why is that? <br />
I don't think the materialists who crowd the halls of the academe mean to suggest this is an open system (life). That death is somehow a release from this system. Nor do I even need to 'go there', myself. <br />
No. I get the impression there is something that makes those very materialists (ie naturalists) extremely nervous about assigning a natural function to death. <br />
Why would that be? <br />
The simplified answer is that if death has a natural function within the system beyond the immediate (ie providing food for a predator/scavenger or fertilizer for plants), it has some very uncomfortable implications for the wider world view of these folks. <br />
How so? <br />
Let's envision for a second that death is the mechanism by which genetics improve upon themselves. That a process known as 'natural selection' and 'mutation' results in real improvements in the organisms undergoing this process. We might call this process 'evolution'. In such a process/system we may consider ourselves 'more evolved' (ie superior in design/function) to a more primitive (much older) example of our species. This is, of course, the stance of modern 'science' (ie systemics). <br />
So, in order for this system to work/function properly one generation must end and another begin. They will overlap, mix and spread the desirable traits. The mechanism to determine these traits being the environment itself. The algorithm of life simply adapts and thrives. A perfect piece of self improving, self propagation code. <br />
Improving to what end? <br />
Well, this is where the materialist wants the conversation to end. They will simply posit 'stuff happens'. They will accuse you of 'promiscuous teleology' or seeing a correlation as a connection. They will shrug away the concept that this self improving, self propagating code simply is (just so) and continues with no direction or function beyond those apparent. <br />
But that's the problem isn't it? The 'self improvement' IS apparent. <br />
Progress and improvement seems to be the result of evolution. Evolution is linear, or progressive - not circular and reductive. <br />
That is to say the 'system' of inanimate matter is not linear, but recursive. Sand becomes rock, breaks into stone and becomes sand. The water cycle. Chemical bonding. So on and so forth. <br />
Life is different. It improves. <br />
To what end? <br />
That is the forbidden question. <br />
It is, of course, a 'why' question. <br />
Comrade professor and the commissars of the academe do NOT like 'why'. <br />
Presumably because it could be applied to their bloated tenures and ever continuing 'education'. <br />
'Why death' is a naughty one indeed. <br />
What does it show us? <br />
A very big 'boo boo' in the grand theory of 'shit happens' (ie the implicitly nihilistic materialist mindset of the academe and elites). <br />
Apparently -if death is assigned a proper biological function - life has some sort of meaning, even on the physical level. <br />
Apparently whatever the source of the information found in our genetic code, it has a goal that can be achieved by applying the genetic algorithm, itself full of CONTINGENCY, to the problem of conscious existence. By applying time and using nature itself as a mould or limiter. <br />
Apparently this little code of proteins has the ability to transfer some essential, central functionality FORWARD in time to some end purpose. <br />
Apparently, and so far, we can tell at least one of these functions is consciousness itself. The ability to ask 'why should this be'. <br />
Well then! <br />

January 1, AD 2014<br/><br/>On this 8th Day of Christmas 2014, New Years Day I find myself up before the crowd. Well, up before my adult son and his gal. Up before my little one and my wife wake from 'nap time' (she took the morning shift so I could welcome the New Year with the revellers, God bless her..).<br />The coffee is hissing in the pot. The bacon is ready for the pan. The eggs and herbs ready for the skillet. <br />Time to reflect and to look forward. <br />What do I see in 2014? Am I optimistic? <br />Well, on a personal level, yes. I do not have high expectations or ambitions for the year, so I expect to reach my goals and have some time left over for fun and rest. <br />On a larger scale, I am no so sure...<br/>
What I see is an increasing trend towards polarisation on every issue and at every level. There is only one historical pattern that matches this current trend. <br/>
<i> That pattern is one of forced crisis. </I>
Divide and rule is the means. The methods increase by order each month. Devices, networks, and entire corporations are working hard at helping you isolate yourself in a nice, sterile little echo chamber. Into a neat little compartment and easy to sort. In Intel jargon, this is called a cell. In <br/>
In this brave new age and order, the citizens cells are increasingly self defined; self labeled. That is to say that we are filtering ourselves into compartments of ideology and neatly labeling them. We do it here on blogger, on facebook, by our consumer choice, with our vote. All leaving a wonderful trail of volunteered data in it, wake. <br/>Our economic, political and cultural ideals self define and identify us like never before, and this provides an equally unprecedented opportunity for new control mechanisms. <br/>
In the simplest terms, we are becoming more alone, more disconnected, more hostile to differences in a connected, networked world! More easily controlled....<br/>
We are doing so at a greatly accelerated rate; and we are doing so by design..<br/>
The examples of this are so numerous to list.
Consider the phone or tablet in your pocket or on our desk.
We are sold a device that is supposed to connect us with those we love, but is in fact another wall of interference between us. Another excuse to be further away, even when physically close.. <br/>
If this is so between families and friends, can we not extend this sur-reality into business and political matter? I am afraid we must. <br/>
Happy New Year, and may God bless and keep you all.<br/>

This first, and western Feast Day of Christmas arrives with much splendour and exuberance in much of the world. There will be music, dancing, presents, food, drink, more food, and much celebration. It is the celebration of the coming of Christ. The Christian high feast of feasts. <br />
Indeed, most of the civilized and advanced world is precisely where you find this fun, wonderful and holy season celebrated. Is that a coincidence? <br />I think not, but that is the stuff of a more substantial and less festive post!<br />
Sufficed to say that on this evening approaching us, known as Christmas Eve or Holy Night, there will be hundreds of millions submitting in humble worship. Many more signing traditional songs for all to hear; some in cathedrals, others on frosty street corners. <br />
There will be cups of good cheer lifted to toast old friends and family present, and those that have gone before. <br />
There will be many decent souls out braving the cold and away from their own people, just to make sure that the less fortunate among them can have a meal and spend some relaxing moments over Christmas. <br />
There will be countless little children climbing into bed wondering what a little parental magic and general good behaviour may result in them finding under their trees or in a stocking. That is to say, they await old St Nicholas on his yearly trip to give them a gift simply for being a good kid. <br />
Many wonderful, magical moments are coming upon us. <br />
<br />
Then there will be the others. <br />
Those not so fortunate, but no less deserving of a Christmas. <br />
The lonely, the abject, the poor, the horribly oppressed, the very ill, the dying. <br />
Those people who cannot or will not be reached on Holy Night. <br />
We have all been there or near it. Many of us will be again. <br />
We must not forget them. He will not. <br />
May they find happiness again, may their Christmases once again become bright. <br />
<br />
For all of us, for today, and for this evening I submit a work of peace. An ode to serenity and meaningfulness. <br />
An offering to God from his children by the way of art. <br />
Incense for the saints in the form of song; to celebrate the coming of a King. <br />

We are being told, for the most part, that this is a good thing. That the purpose of this technology is to allow for a better human/machine interface. A technology that would allow disabled people to walk, the deaf to hear, the blind to see. <br />That it will allow us to compute with ease, guide aircraft and vehicles more efficiently, and operate surgical robots and exploratory drones in ways we could only imagine previously. <br />Wonders! Miracles! Progress! <br />A technological Eden is almost upon us! <br /><br />Yeah... right. <br />I think we've heard this one before. Many times. <br />This, like so many other developments, is another game of 'watch the birdy'.<br />The technology itself, if developed along these lines, could have some of these benefits. But technology is a tool. <br />It is the end result of an engineered concept. A concept can be engineered in many ways. Both good and evil uses for any concept are obvious. <br />The same technology used to identify your face print and give you access to secure areas or data can be mounted on a pole and scan passers by for purposes of control. The same technology engineered to help you find a location or avoid heavy traffic can be used to track your every move. The same devices that we use to communicate with our loved ones or make business transactions are used to listen in on us. The same technology used to give you affordable electricity to run all your household appliances and gadgets can be used to incinerate the city, town, or country in which you live. <br />Not only <i>can </i>it all be used this way it <i>has and will </i>be used this way. <br />So how could a device that reads neural patterns to 'interface' with machines be used in a bad way? <br />Well, dear reader, let's get those neural patterns going, shall we? <br />Imagine the same machinery put to use to scan people unwittingly. <br />Imagine the potential to locate and isolate dissent from political ideas. <br />'You do not agree with Mr X's policy, and we want to know why?' The posing of this question would result in the answer. <br />The operators would know the moment you pondered it. You would not have to verbally respond. The machine would tell them why. <br />Well, for most people anyway. <br />How about those people who do not think the same way as the herd? <br />What about the ones that are difficult to read? <br />The people who have trained themselves <i>not </i>to think in a predictable pattern, or those who naturally are different. <br />Would they be perceived as 'dangerous' to the people behind the curtain?<br />They already are, but with the advent of this technology the operators would be able to instantly identify them. Would they be exiled, medicated, imprisoned, or worse? <br />This would be the ultimate step towards mental control and conformity. The enforcement of specific patterns of thought. <br />Or worse still.... <br />What could be worse than the monitoring of your every thought? <br />The <i>expulsion</i> of them. <br />There is a theme in the methods of these madmen. <br />It is a reductionist theme. They want everything nice and simple. Easy to control. Machine like. They always have, and now the have come closer to realizing their nightmare scenarios than ever before. <br />Those of you familiar with George Orwell's classic <i>1984 </i>will be familiar with the concept of<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newspeak" target="_blank"> 'newspeak'</a>. This is an excellent example of the concept in fiction. <br />In order to reduce the ability of the oppressed populace of this dystopia from formulating any ideas of revolt or change, the <i>language itself</i> is dumbed down. Words and sentence forms are made illegal and flagged. People who break the language laws disappear, are broken, publicly confess to 'thought crime' and are executed one they are forgotten. <br />Some would argue this has already begun, and I see some validity in that argument. Words have been redefined for political ends. Entire ideologies made effectively illegal via policy. The language is being dumbed down; and it seems this is a deliberate process. <br />But, the comparison lies here: The reason for 'thought crime' was not to control creative thought in the masses. It was to eliminate it. <br />This concept, applied to the technology of mind sifting, could very easily be realized without the need to go through all the complex language and cultural restrictions - that could provoke a revolt - described by 20th century authors like Orwell. <br />Consider for a moment: What would Stalin, Hitler, or Mao have done with this power of mind over their people? <br />Just look what the got away with, without it! <br />With this technology engineered just so, the next ascendant tyrant can verify the elimination of thought. Force us to self sensor in the desired fashion. Make sure we are nice and stupid, on a cerebral level. <br />You could not play stupid, you would have to <i>be </i>stupid - or you would be detected and removed from the group. Intelligence would be a challenge to authority, and easily detected by the patterns in your head. <br />The drones these people would want to control are the masses. <br />The machine interface, in this view, would allow the machines to monitor and control the populace. <br />Those in control of the machines would be literal slave masters. Perhaps a high caste would be a better wording. Maybe they would allow some other, less powerful but loyal sycophantic classes lord over the slaves who would make up the vast majority of humanity. The humanity they deem worthy of breeding and continuing on, that is. <br />And the 'well bred' slaves and their task masters themselves? <br />They better be useful. They better work hard, better keep their heads down, better owe <i>all </i>their loyalties to their masters or they themselves could be replaced by machines. <br />No room for quaint notions of things like constitutions or God in this brave new interfaced world. No such thing as 'rights'. Just patterns. <br />Correct patterns and defective patterns. <br /><br />Dear reader, I hope I am wrong about all this. That these predictions are just that: A guess about what may happen if these ideas are <i>abused. </i>I pray that is so. <br />But, is this just paranoia? <br />Do we not already live in a world were we are monitored and controlled increasingly for 'security' reasons, and yet we are constantly reminded of increasing dangers? Do we not live in a world were all the forms of entertainment and mental stimulation are being increasingly dumbed down? A world where vulgarity has replaced subtlety? A world in which people <i>believe </i>freedom (for race, class etc) comes in the form of a government issued cheque? A world in which women parade about for their 'right' to kill their <i>own offspring</i>? A world were we are taught stupid is smart, and smart is stupid? A world in which we are constantly bombarded with the idea the good and evil are relative and to rely on some temporal ruling class to define what is good and what is evil for us? A world were we are judged by what we have, and not who we are?<br />How far of a stretch is it then to imagine these same forces at work in our halls of power would not abuse a technology that allows them to peer into the very interface of your mind with the physical world? <br />This has been a long game, dear reader. <br />We must not allow a check-mate. <br /><br /><i>"For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, the elect.

<br />
Any of you who know me on a personal level know that I am fond of war games. <br />
You might think this would be something that actual warfare cured me of, but alas, the addiction remains. <br />
It is probably due to growing up in a home where my father was an enthusiast. He and his university buddies enjoyed painting models and creating landscapes for tactical games based on real conflicts. They relived battles such as Waterloo and Normandy in our den and garage. I watched with wonder. Growing up, I had it a little easier. I could buy my games in boxes and eventually for computers and video game consoles. I still enjoy, when I have the time, the strategy and problem solving aspects of these virtual conflicts. <br />
But, there has been something that has irked me for years. It has come to my attention again, since the release of a really neat WWII combat simulator known as War Thunder. <br />
In fact it is <i>always </i>present in WWII games these days. <br />
I first noticed it in the 90's when I bought a boxed set of 'Axis and Allies'. <br />
The Third Reich’s forces are incorrectly marked, but the Soviet forces are not. <br />
Most people who would even notice this would react with a big 'So What'? <br />
After all the Nazi emblems are offensive to many, right? <br />
Well, sure. But that's what was on the tanks, planes, and ships. <br />
That's who ran the German Empire: The Nazis. <br />
Further, the Hammer and Sickle is deeply offensive to millions as well. Most notably the people who lived under their oppression and the relatives of the tens, if not hundreds of millions the Soviet death machine murdered. <br />
These people were starved to death, worked to death, summarily executed, raped, burned alive, and wiped out for no other reason than their ethnicity. The people who survived them hate Soviet symbolism. <br />
Sound familiar? <br />
The reality is that while the Nazis killed millions over the span of just under two decades, the Soviets killed TENS OF MILLIONS over the span of a century. <br />
So why is it okay for the Soviets emblem to be on my gaming board, but the Nazis are banned? <br />
This is a really strange imbalance. <br />
I am not suggesting these images should be banned from gaming all together. Rather I am pointing out that only a SINGLE genocidal power is! <br />
I have had it pointed out to me that by including the Swastika and various SS symbols in these games, it would prevent Germans from playing them - as these images and ideas are illegal there. This is a fallacious argument. A German version could be made. Besides, are we to believe that the Germans, of ALL people, don't know the truth? <br />
It was their grandparents and great grandparents that fought on that side! <br />
If we take the German argument for self-censorship at face value, why would we want modern Russians to glory in Soviet imagery? Why do we not self censor those images and ideas? Simply because they were our allies during the war? <br />
They were, after all, the OTHER power that invaded Poland and STARTED the bloody conflict. <br />
My point is simple, really. <br />
History that is forgotten (or suppressed) is doomed to repeat. White-washing the German war machine is not in good taste. Pretending the Soviets were somehow morally superior to the Nazis is reprehensible. <br />
'Aw come on, it's only a game', you say. <br />
Really? Is it just the games? <br />
Why is it acceptable for college kids to wear Che T-shirts? Lenin shirts? CCCP soccer and hockey jerseys? Would the same colleges, restaurants, and other public places allow the same kids to wear Waffen SS shirts? Hitler or Himmler shirts? Third Reich Olympic hockey jerseys? <br />
I think not. <br />
There is a very strange double standard when it comes to mass murder, war, and genocide. <br />

Once in a while I read a blog post on one of my friends/blog buddies pages that really gets the juices flowing. Really makes me think. <br /><br />A post that opens doors of inquiry and starts a cycle of introspection. <br /><br />Today I came across one of those on Dr Michael Egnor's 'Engorance'. It is a really interesting blog which I often haunt, and is full of fascinating topics and discussions. But, this one is a gem fully worthy of cross-posting. <br />The post is a fascinating analysis of Bertrand Russell's rejection of eliminative materialism, by a renowned professor and practitioner of Neurosurgery. Mike's take is well worth reading.<br /><br />Russell was a self described atheist, and a brilliant thinker in many ways. But he, unlike his modern counterparts, did not limit his world view with the paradoxical notions of scientism. He transcended those limits by rejecting the idealist and materialist dichotomy. <br />Read the analysis on Dr Egnor's blog here:</div>

This is a strong statement. But it is truth. <br />
What is transhumanism? It is that other forbidden fruit. The quest for a technological, physical immortality. <br />
In it's latest costume it is posited as a means to 'download' or 'upload' your mind into a computer bank and thereby avoid death. Once in this matrix-like existence, the transhumanist muses, you would be able to transfer into replicated bodies and devices that would allow you to do all sorts of 'wonderful' things. Things like travelling the vast distances between stars, explore hostile worlds, and other such things that require more time of physical ability than our bodies are able to do. <br />
This is the ultimate transhumanist goal. They call it the 'singularity'. When man and machine merge. <br />
Sound attractive? It sure sells. <br />
They are working very hard on it. They are very wealthy and influential.
The 'project' began with nueral interface technology and 'augmented
reality'. Devices like smart phones, google glass, and behavioural
mapping software are seen as 'stepping stones' to the 'singularity' by
this transhumanist elite. <br />
They run some of the most powerful and successful tech firms in the world. They meet with our leaders. They <i>believe </i>this is our destiny, our evolutionary path. <br />
<br />
But let's take a closer look at this promise of a brave new world.<br />
Let's see what it <i>really </i>means. <br />
There is two theories on the mind that have survived the rigours of scientific, philosophical, and theological inquiry. <br />
The first, and most commonly believed, is that the mind is <i>above </i>matter. That the mind is the interface between the organic presence and the soul. Kind of like a transmission or software that allows the real transcendent <i>us </i>to navigate about the physical reality we call 'life'. In the software analogy it is much like an operating system that allows the user (the soul, or it's many other names) to interface with the hardware of the body and thus navigate the network of this physical reality. This is simply a new metaphor for the most ancient and realistic approach to what the mind is. This is the approach embraced by religious and agnostic minds alike, and is the one most often connected to philosophies of purpose and meaning. It is also backed by a <i>huge </i>amount of modern, verifiable hard sciences - such as those of ever vaunted, never failing quantum physics. <br />
The second is the materialist approach. Bottom up, if you like. It relies on various semi scientific theories to propose that the mind is the result of the machine. That the software, in our previous analogy, is 'emergent'. That is to say, the machine's software is constantly upgrading on it's own solely due to evolutionary processes. That the mind, to perhaps better illustrate, is like a flame on a gas vent. It lights, grows, and eventually flickers out never to return. In this view the only part of a life that survives 'death' is the genetic inheritance it may have passed on in the form of offspring. This inheritance allows a new mind to form in the offspring, and over millions of years improve by means of mutations and natural selection (survivors survive). <br />
This second view, as the reader will note, is not exactly cheery stuff. Nor is it accepted by most conscious minds (no pun intended). Nor should it be. For if this position is the truth, then there is no real truth only subjective experience - and thus the argument itself is untrue. I am reminded of the old logical paradox in the form of a statement and question: 'There is no such thing as objective truth' to which the student questions 'Is that true?' <br />
But Transhumanism does not rely on either view. In fact, it proponents espouse both views. They come from both camps. <br />
Either way, it is suicidal lunacy. <br />
How so? Well, the reader should consider the following. <br />
If the first concept of mind is true, and the soul is the 'user' or controller of our physical body via the mind - then the mind most likely cannot be divorced from the soul. if it can be, by some technological wizardry undreamed of so far, then that mind is <i>no longer</i> the person which it once belonged to and was part of. It would simply a collection of their memories replicated into a machine, like a file back up system. A lone component no more the individual than a carefully preserved (and animated?) corpse or a well written (interactive?) manifesto. The soul, if undamaged by the process, would simply do what souls do when they are <i>naturally </i>divorced from the body and mind; 'pass on'. If, in their madness, the transhumanist was to counter that they could 'catch the soul' (as some, indeed do) and bottle it up in a machine, then is this not <i>literally </i>playing God? Would this not be an utterly <i>insane </i>attempt to avoid whatever stage of existence lies beyond what we call 'death'? Would we not be forced to reexamine the professed motives of a person who seeks to avoid the natural course of the transcendent existence of humanity, and thereby avoid their very <i>purpose</i> ? <br />
Indeed, we would. <br />
<br />
Now, if the second concept was somehow paradoxically true, then the death would be even more permanent. If the mind is simply a collection of impulses that are the result of a chemical reaction in the brain, like the constantly reorganizing pixels on a screen or a flame dancing on a gas vent, then to simply copy those pixels or use that flame to light a different vent would not be the original. The personality created would simply be a copy. A duplicate. The original would be forever dead. <br />
Having taken this fruit of the tree of life, this deep drink of the fountain of youth, the materialist would find themselves poisoned and replaced by an algorithmic doppelgänger. Regardless of how good that duplicate may be, the original would have ceased to exist. They would be truly, metaphysically gone. Utterly dead, and willingly so. <br />
So, what does that lead us to? Where does this analysis conclude? <br />
With a simple, logical reality check. <br />
Anyone planning to embrace transhumanism is literally committing suicide. <br />
Those who promote it are promoting <i>mass suicide. </i>Further, they are promoting the mass suicide and conversion of the victims into a database (of sorts) of the gullible masses who <i>fear </i>death. <br />
I know this reads like an extreme position, but is really quite calm and rational observation once you give it a few minutes thought.<br />
These people want to convince - no <i>convert </i>- you to willingly die and transfer all your knowledge and experiences into their computers. Will they also take this route? That is, more or less, irrelevant. If they do, they are mad and evil. If they do not, then they are sane and immensely more so (evil). <br />
I mean,really folks, is the conclusion that such death cults would exist - that this is their explicit aim or goal so 'far out there' in a world that embraces infanticide, genocides, and human euthanasia as 'health care' and 'sustainability' projects? <br />
If you think, for one second, I am making this all up, <a href="http://ca.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-1118334299.html" target="_blank">read it in their own words.</a> <br />
Sound evil? Even <i>diabolic</i>?<br />
It should. <br />
<br />
If you'll take this old bayonet's final advice on the subject: Don't 'plug in'. Face death as we all must do. Educate others on this madness, once you have familiarized yourself with it. Encourage those you love to be happy with what they are, and not to aspire to some delusional, technological promise of personal divinity. <br />
Do so for the sake of your mind, body, and soul. <br />
<br />
May God bless you and keep you all. <br />

It is one of my fondest memories. <br />As a young fellow growing up in Canada, it was always a treat to travel into the 'States' and do something different, see a palm tree, swim in a warm sea, and visit some interesting attractions... but Disney World was my favourite. <br />My own mother lived there for years. I spent two year in high school there. <br />Years passed, and as I grew into a man my reasons for travelling into the US changed. <br />I went was to visit folks, take business trips, do some training, and very occasionally for a holiday. <br />Most of my vacation time was taken up by travels into Mexico and South America for academic reasons. I would combine my holidays with my field work while on extended leave. <br />So, while growing up, my oldest (now adult) son never took that seminal road trip as I had done with my own dad. I regret that now. I had always banked on more time to do it. I never thought the road itself would change. <br />Since the birth of our newest son, a toddler now, I had been entertaining the idea of saving up for the expensive ordeal of a road trip down to Florida as he got just a little older. In fact, we had already begun to save and plan. My adult son, was enthusiastic about the entire affair and wanted to come along. <br />But, I fear those plans have been stalled if not shelved. <br />Not by money (always a concern); not by illness, nor by a lack of interest or will. <br />Instead, we have begun to think it may not be in our best interests to travel into and through the US during the current political climate. <br /><br />My own work of many years gives me some alarming insight into the political trends of our neighbour - one of my favourite nations, period. It saddens me to write this, but I just do not think it is desirable to be there. Not right now. <br />I have never, in all my life, seen the US so polarized. So full of factionalism - and yet, so little difference between the political parties. A rising tide of socialism and globalism seems to have gripped the halls of power. <br />I could never have imagined, say in the 10 or 15 years past, that I would see the security state I see rising in place of the 'land of Liberty'; a place I was so in love with as a boy and so enjoyed visiting as a young man. <br />The change that began in 2001 was profound, and I was all for some of the initial measures.... I never dreamt they would be taken so far. I could never have imagined the escalation under Mr Obama's administration.<br />The checkpoints. The cameras. The restrictions.The scanners. The treatment of LEGAL allied citizens and NATIVE citizens. <br />I could not have envisioned the 'new agencies' that have so much power over the everyday life of anyone within American borders. <br />All added up, and I think we will have to seriously consider spending our money somewhere were people like us are welcomed. <br /><br />Today I am yet again beside myself. Today it has become public knowledge that our allies in Australia have been providing personal (and sometimes classified) details about our private citizens to the US NSA. <a href="http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/84360" target="_blank">Today I have read about a wheel chair bound Canadian woman being denied entry into the US (for a holiday) because the 'Department of Homeland Security' somehow discovered she had suffered from some sort of emotional breakdown or panic attack and had been treated for it.</a> These records, in Canada, are PRIVATE. They require a WARRANT to access, and one may only be issued if a serious crime has been committed. None was. No warrant was granted. This information was used to deny a harmless, handicapped Canadian citizen entry. <br />So how did they get them? They wont say. <br />Our own officials claim ignorance. While I am not inclined to trust politicians, I tend to think they are telling the truth this time. Why? Any party that did so would be committing political suicide - and for what? To stop a depressed woman from getting some winter sun? Fingers are beginning to point at our allies in the 'Five Eyes'. Was it the British? The Australians? Unlikely the Kiwis, as they have similar privacy laws to us. <br />Could it be infiltration? <br />Paranoia has gripped our academic and intelligence community. Wires are being pulled. Agreements reviewed. <br />'With friends like this' becomes the new line.<br /> <br />Who ever it was, we have been collectively betrayed. The evidence is given to us by some power tripping border guard (thanks!). And it's not just us who have been betrayed. It is also the American taxpayer. They are funding this nonsense in the name of security. If the powers that be will pay to discover this about someone entering the country, how long before they justify doing the same for those leaving? For those <i>within</i>? <br /><br />So where does that leave Mickey, Mini, the Pirates, and my Citrus Tree Swirl? <br />In limbo. <br />If we do go, it will be by plane. That will be great, I am sure, as far as the security state is concerned. But, when we - and thousands like us - start doing that, it is for a lot less time; and our money is being spent in one small approved sector. <br />The highway stops, small towns, attractions, and destinations along the way (like the Atlanta Aquarium and Williamsburg, for just two examples) lose our business. <br />As I noted above, I am far from alone in these sentiments. <br />In fact, I am one of the few people who could still pull it off with relative ease. I am connected to the apparatus by means of military and security ties. I get waved through, most of the time. I have a special ID. <br />But that is a double edged sword. It means I have also seen and heard of the directives. I know what these security people are told about us, as Canadians. How I am an 'exception' due to my connections. Forgive the term, it is the only truly applicable one I can think of at present, but I do not want to be anyone's <i>'house nigger'. </i><br />I am a free citizen of a sovereign nation - an ALLIED nation. <br />I pose no danger to the current regime. I am not a fomenter of dissent or civil war/strife. I would, indeed, keep my head down and go for a holiday. But would I enjoy it, like I once did? I am not so sure.<br />These thoughts all passed through my head last year as I drove -escorted- through the ruins of what was once Detroit. Again, more recently when standing in line outside a local super store to pick up a much vaunted gaming console for our family room. <br />In the wee hours of the morning, while standing and chatting and sipping coffee with the folks in a cold line it became apparent that none of them had any intention of travelling into the USA. <br />I did not bring the topic up. I listened to them. People originally from border towns in Niagara, and from the city of Windsor (one a naturalized Canadian of American origin) ranted on and on about their treatment while crossing and well <i>within </i>the States. One even compared their travels to those in Cuba. <br />They lamented for their American friends and family. It was not a USA bashing session. It was more like a wake, or grieving for what once was. These folks missed the good old days. They missed the old America, and missed her sincerely. <br /><br />
All that said, I have not lost all hope. The American people are a proud, stubborn bunch. They will and are resisting these changes. New political movements have come into being that are designed to counter this apparatus and the apparatchiks who run it. They are gaining more and more steam by the day. <br />I suspect that sooner or later this madness has to give. <br /><i>Someone</i> who actually prefers their own people and nation, and those of their allies, to the whims of international policy makers (ie globalists who <i>crave </i>security states and view people as 'assets' and 'resources') will fill the power vacuum created by hacks. <br />Sooner or later, something has to give. The old Republic that was so fond to me <i>will</i> come back, or a new one(s) will be formed in it's stead. I sincerely hope it is the former and not the latter, but whatever it takes - I pray it happens soon and in a peaceful manner, for the sake of the people and nation next door that I hold so dear. <br /><br />What it comes down to is this: I do not want my little boy, my wife, and
my adult son and his gal to be subjected to this over zealous,
misdirected security machine. We can, if necessary, make our memories and take our money elsewhere. I am not even so sure I want to fly into
(or over) that machine with them. <br /><i>It's just not worth the mouse ears. </i><br /><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739783974158130525noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7415512528620482759.post-7484334091588693882013-12-01T18:09:00.003-08:002013-12-01T18:09:40.172-08:00The Grand Design<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

In reverse. <br />It all started in early 2012. <br />It is intriguing because of the nature of the trail. The way in which this bait was set. <br /><br />A mysterious image with codes embedded leading to TOR sites with interactive coding, that in turn leads to further clues such as an OS, music of an occult variety, ancient Mayan numerology, obscure references to ancient Welsh legend, and even coded flyers/posters pasted in regions around the globe. <br />Clearly this is not the game of some nerd ensconced in his mother's basement. <br />Certainly, those of us in the 'business' do not see 3301 as an idle mind(s). <br />The trail led the 'solvers', largely in cryptography and hacking circles on the IRQ networks, to a final series of questionnaires and a secret email. An email these folks have not leaked. <br /><br />Then silence from cicada. 3301 was done their drive. <br />Then in early 2013 the bug emerged again. <br />New clues and images emerged. They led to even weirder locations, stranger literary and philosophical references, including the works of the 'Beast', Aleister Crowley the notorious Satanist. <br />More onions. More TOR. New requests to build test servers and eventually contact for a very (un)lucky few of the 'solvers'. <br />The promise is the same as it has always been: Hidden knowledge, power, and a personal kind of divinity. It is as old as the mind of man. <br />Literally as old as Sin. <br /><br />The game 3301 / 1033 is playing is one of the hunt. <br />The solvers are the hunted.<br />As 3301 informs the solvers in one precociously open hint: 'You cannot see the forest for the trees.'<br />One bizarre final note. A anonymous post that seemed (to the solvers) legitimate was made by a person who claimed to be a former member. The poster describes the cicada as a 'left hand path' religion. The poster claims their goals are Nazi-esque and the scientific technological veneer is masking an occult purpose. The poster claims he was seduced by their nihilism, and by their promises of power and knowledge; that he was recruited as an accomplished 'officer' in the military of his country. He claims the organization is composed of such influential men. The poster then explains he left when he decided to settle down and have a family, after which he came to Christ. <br />The claims of this defector catapulted this strange quest for the forbidden fruit into the public eye. This stark warning, if true, has made the hunt and the hunted known. <br />No longer the realm of hackers, 'solvers', and the intelligence community - the cicada now chirps for all to hear. <br />Be careful as you listen to it sing. <br />It can hypnotize. <br />Even the elect. <br />Pay attention to the numbers, if you do. They are the forest and the trees. <br /><br />May God bless you and keep you all. <br />IHSv<br /><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739783974158130525noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7415512528620482759.post-87689929979511465562013-11-23T12:36:00.004-08:002013-11-23T12:36:54.642-08:00The deal with Iran - A faustian pact<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It purports to curtail the further development of the facilities, in exchange for the lifting of sanctions on Iran. The reality is that this deal will lift the sanctions <i>before </i>Iran complies. <br />What does this mean? It means Iran will be able to continue to develop it's nuclear capabilities unhindered, provided the declared reasons for the productions of this material are given as 'peaceful'. <br />Needless to say the regional powers are incensed. Livid, may be a more appropriate term. <br />They point out, quite rightly, that Iran's intentions are for regional hegemony. Power, and not the type your fridge runs on. Control. <br />In fact, even France has described this deal as 'capitulation'. Considering the source, that's saying something, folks. But then France is has a Mediterranean coast within range of Iran's latest missile systems. <br /><br />The tension between the US and her allies has become literally, publicly visible over this deal. The Israelis have used the term 'betrayal', the Arabs are reconsidering their leases for US bases in the region. <br />Israel and Saudi Arabia - sworn enemies for decades - have actually begun talks to cooperate in reducing the Iranian capacity through military means. The Saudis have reportedly given Israel fly over rights for a strike, and offered ground support. <br />If that is the Obama Admin's middle eastern peace plan, I am not sure their definitions are the same as most of ours. <br />So why the deal? To buy time. <br />Buy time for what? You may well ask. <br />Politics is my reply. Wiggle room. <br />To push this disaster onto the plate of the next US administration. <br />Some pundits have compared this deal to Chamberlain and Munich. <br />I think that is unfair. <br />While Chamberlain's government did proclaim 'peace in our time' and allow Hitler's forces to annex surrounding nations - it was a pragmatic, if very unpopular decision. While Chamberlain gave his speech, his cabinet was tripling the size of the RAF and Royal Navies. While he spoke of peace, his people prepared for a war that they <i>knew</i> was brewing. <br />The same cannot be said of the Obama administration. Massive cut-backs and a re-emphasis on drone systems and other technological toys are the direction of the current US administration. It is more reminiscent of Hitler's grasping at the straws of wonder-weapons, than a stable preparation for conflict. <br />While Chamberlain's government was no doubt lying to the public, they were also lying to Hitler's. The time they bought was enough to prevent a neighbouring European (burgeoning) super-power from invading the British Isles. The current US administration seems to be buying time for the sake of a political legacy. The move smacks of incompetence; of the work of inexperienced, arrogant, dimwits. <br /><br />A newsflash Mr President: Posterity will not record this as someone else's deal. She will not be kind to those who capitulate to a nuclear Iran - whether or not she actually achieves that goal... and you better hope she doesn't. <br /><br />This is a deal with the Devil. The classic 'easy route'. <br />And just like the classic legends about such deals, it will bring immediate benefits and accolades. The choir of the Obama-faithful will praise it for a bold move for peace. <br />But, like all deals with the infernal, there will be much shrieking and dismay when the bill comes due.... and much shame for those who did little or nothing to stop it. <br />Hopefully, that bill will not cost millions of lives. <br />Hopefully the Jews and the Arabs will deal with this in such a way as to prevent the tab from being so high as to make the Obama-Iran deal one of the most costly in human history. <br />One can only hope.<br />It seems the time for deals has been wasted. <br /><br />May God bless and keep you all. <br />IHSv<br /><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739783974158130525noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7415512528620482759.post-69238437453531998222013-11-21T05:39:00.002-08:002013-11-21T05:45:32.494-08:00The political team gameHave you ever wanted to get a cell phone service or cable TV package and had to accept a pile of services or channels you don't want in order to get what you do want? You know? Ever had to accept and paid worthless nonsense to get a service you require? Most of us have. It is all part of the consumer marketing technique. <br />
What seems less apparent to most is that exactly the same thing is happening in politics. Worse, actually. Politics is not something you can just turn off, it effects all of us. <br />
Consider, dear reader, the 'platforms' (packages) labelled as 'conservative' and 'liberal'. How many conservatives adhere to <i>all</i> the policy of the related platform. For example, how many truly conservative individuals believe in outsourcing manufacturing to line the pockets of multinational corporations? <br />
Let's take a look at the 'opposing' faction: The 'liberals' for a moment. How many true liberals would support a security/police state? <br />
Let's take it a step further, shall we?<br />
Why do BOTH platforms support BOTH initiatives? <br />
Why must we always take these channels or services, no matter our political leanings? <br />
Why must we pay for them with our livelihoods and freedoms?<br />
Answer? Because the teams/packages/platforms are designed that way. These policies - that no right minded person would vote for individually - are bundled in with some goodies we really want, but never truly materialize. <br />
So in this simple but profound double example, we see the tip of an iceberg. <br />
If we ponder on this for a while, we will all find these political team games being sold to us in the form of compromise. <br />
I want to see prohibition end, so I must vote for a politician in favour of infanticide... or I must accept the other teams argument and see no end to prohibition and the <i>acceptance </i>of smaller amounts of infanticide. What if I want to see the end of <i>both</i> practices? Where is my team now? <br />
So, you may say, this is a problem. Where is the solution? <br />
The solution lies in the devolution of federal political powers over our every day lives. Federal or Royal powers are meant to be limited to <i>national and international </i>concerns. If these powers are devolved to regional and local <i>elected </i>authorities with a constitutional check and balance - then we can actually effect change on that level. If we do not like that configuration of power, we should be free to move to where we do like it, or directly change it where we are. <br />
This is how it <i>should</i> work. <br />But that system has been hijacked by a very slick elite oligarchy that has packaged it's arsenic in with the goodies - like some sort of rat poison. <br />
How it <i>does </i>work? <br />Teams. Packages. Bundles. Mass marketed to entire national targets. <br />
This is how we end up buying the crap and never actually getting what we want. Worse still, we end up buying the poison along with the goodies. <br />
Want some real life examples? <br />
Turn on the news. <br />
Convinced, but feeling like you cannot make a difference? That's the whole idea of the 'team game'. Just don't play. Refuse to be a cheerleader for ideas that repulse you. Don't buy the bundle to engage a single issue. Engage where you can effect change, and help open the minds of others about you. <br />
You can make a change, and if more and more of do (we <i>are</i>) we can change to whole game. <br />
In fact, we can call it off. <br />
In short, the real winning team is NO TEAM AT ALL. <br /><br />
May God bless you and keep you all. <br />

We do not hear about it, because it runs counter to the federal narrative of racial tranquillity. <br />The US federal government wants you to <i>think</i> less about this kind of thing. They are self proclaimed 'liberals' (aka progressives) and they <i>need </i>their middle class constituents to feel safe. <br />They want you to feel they are providing all for their people. They want you to come to believe they rule over (yes <i>rule</i>) over a 'post racial' America. The proof is in the colour of the president's skin, they will proclaim. After all, what type of racially divided nation would vote in an 'African American' president?<br />That's the narrative. Here's the cold hard facts: The president is not African. He is a biracial man raised by his white grandparents in Hawaii. Because he is considered black in 'post racial' America for having some black ancestry, he was voted into office in an extremely cynical and racially divisive fashion.<br />Remember '08? I do. I remember the countless columns and editorials, pamphlets, and talking heads on TV blathering about the 'racists' who stood against Mr Obama. I remember the (racial) statistics that showed how the 'black communities', blissfully unaware of his policy and stuffed with false promises, voted for him in the order of the high nineties in the percentiles. <br />If every single white person in that nation had voted along racial lines, there would have been an outcry. But in 'post racial' America, this divide and rule strategy was proclaimed as a victory. <br />A victory for who or what? For the race baiting political classes who form the so called 'left wing' of US power. <br /><br />Well, here we are in AD 2013. At the start of Mr Obama's second term. The scandals surrounding his rule are too many to mention in detail. This 'transparent' president has formed secret courts, allowed his intelligence agencies unprecedented power and seen defectors run to Russia. He has seen his tax bureau attack his opponents. His justice department has been rocked by gun smuggling and corruption. His TSA has become a paramilitary checkpoint system similar to Mexico or Cuba. His drones have killed hundreds of innocents and been utilized to assassinate enemies (counter to military conventions). Wars have blossomed and gone rotten. As I noted, there is too much to mention. One scandal is eclipsed by another before the ink dries. <br /><br />But he <i>must</i> have, at the very least, been good for race relations right? Him and his people are 'sensetive' to these horrible bigotries and injustices, right?<br />Wrong. <br /><br />Welcome to the age of racial mob violence. <br />Welcome to the age of the age of the 'knock out game'.<br /><br />What is the knock out game? Well if you read about it in the MSM you are going to be told that it is groups of 'youths' who think it is entertaining to attack and 'knock out' an unsuspecting 'random' victim. This is nothing but rank deception. <br />The knock out game is actually anything but random. It is actually being perpetrated in the largest part by <i>black inner city </i>youths and the victims are not 'random', they are selected. They are selected based on race, ethnicity, religion, sexuality, and opportunity. The victims are overwhelmingly white, Asian, Latino, and/or gay. The most recent wave has been targeting Jews in New York. <br />Young couples have been attacked. Old men. Teachers. Shop keepers. Dog walkers. <br />These people dared to walk near or through neighbourhoods dominated by roaming gangs of violent young black people. <br />The reasoning of these mobs? Hate. They think it is funny to cold clock an old man, or a guy walking his girlfriend home and then post a video of the attack on youtube (usually how they are caught). <br />The videos are replete with racial epithets. This is happening ALL over the us, in most major cities. <br />Where it does not happen is almost as notable. Blue collar areas, where people are not afraid to defend themselves are mysteriously left out. What can we deduce from this? The perps are cowards. That is why they attack in packs and gangs. Their victims nature also testify to this. <br /><br />Some of you may think this is not a racial matter. That is has to do with gang culture, poverty, and poor education. Well, these are factors for sure. Bigotry flourishes in such a vacuum. <br />Further, there is no genetic propensity for this behaviour. It is not happening because the attackers are black, rather it is happening because their victims are usually <i>not black. <br /><br />Think about this folks:</i> If gangs of white youths wandered the streets selecting Jews, Blacks, Gays, and Latinos to be savagely attacked, and even killed - what would the media reaction be? Many of you are too young to remember the 1980's and the skin heads. To young to remember the outcry about the activities of racist groups victimizing minorities. That is all ancient history, as far as most people are concerned. But, you will be old enough to remember the Trayvon Martin case. A case in which a Latino man was tried for the murder of a young black man who had viscously attacked him on a walkway. Do you remember the outcry and nationwide protests about a single young, unarmed man being shot in self defence? The various attacks and even murders in Trayvon's name? 'This is for Trayvon' was the cry heard. Do you remember the 'post racial' president claiming young Mr Martin 'could have been my son' - and effectively <i>fanning the flames </i>of the racial discord? <br />Well, I am left to suppose a Jewish, white, or Asian boy could <i>not </i>have been his son, by his silence on these issues. I suppose his son would <i>never </i>be gay. I am left thinking the media is complicit in this spiteful, nasty, shell game. <br /><br />

The sad truth is that the USA has stepped back 50 years in racial relations in just a few months of political games. In order to win an election the spin doctors of the new 'left' have sacrificed two generations of work. <br />They may have put a 'black man' in the Whitehouse, but at what long term costs to that 'community' and to the entire nation. <br />Divide and rule is the oldest control game in the book. <br />It has been played very effectively in the last political cycle of the USA. Politics have been polarized, racial/ethnic groups put at each other, even the very notion of constitutional government has been put up for debate - an idea unthinkable to this blogger in his own youth. <br />And it has only just begun. <br /><br /><br />For more information on this subject simply search the term 'knock out game'. <br /><br />May God bless you and keep you all. <br />IHSV<br /><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739783974158130525noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7415512528620482759.post-13064781830351327742013-11-11T04:13:00.002-08:002013-11-11T04:22:40.217-08:00In Flanders fields...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

How prone to our 'evolutionary programming'. How nasty we are. What an 'infection' on the earth we have become. <br /><br />These ideas are disseminated as 'sceintific', but are obviously a very poor appeal to philosophy and metaphysics. <br />While no one would dispute that human beings belong to that class of creatures we called 'animals' (those with animus, or whom are animated) and not plants or elements, there is an <i>implication or inference </i>in these reductionist musings that is left unsaid. Essentially that we are no better or worse than the beasts that run wild or sleep on our sofas that we call pets. <br /><br />This is, of course, absurd. Human beings are exceptional creatures. We build. We learn. We record our history in semiotic codes we call language. We use the immaterial numbers to engage and discovery things about our reality that lead us to entirely new worlds. <br /><br />Much of the 'humans are <i>just </i>animals' blather is disguised as some sort of argument for 'animal rights', or more accurately to argue against cruelty towards the beasts. In reality, though, it is a far more insidious movement. <br /><br />At the core of this materialist doctrine is another step; another level that is not as publicly acknowledged. That doctrine teaches that animals themselves are merely chemical machines bent on reproduction. They are just machines, and we are just animals, and hence machines. <br /><br />Obviously this does nothing for animals <i>or</i> men. Worse, it enables a mindset that finds it perfectly 'ethical' to use these 'machines' to test out their theories, ideas, and political aspirations. Whether that is carrying out repeated and horrific experiments on 'lab animals' to justify some budget or product line, or justifying social engineering and eugenics programs - it is a much easier argument when the victims of these insane plans are described as machines. <br /><br />This mindset is evident in language. Scientific terms and generic names are used to describe the 'subjects' of these madmen's fantasies come to life<br />A million people or creatures are referred to as 'populations'. Unborn children are merely a 'foetus'. A disabled infant that may or may not receive care - depending on a budget - are described as 'neonates'. <br />The list goes on and on..<br /><br />The justification for these activities becomes much harder when the human and animal populations are seen in another light. When they are seen as exceptional and extremely rare. When they are thought to have some purpose beyond the material. <br /><br />We have become, as a civilization, more and more jaded. More and more callous. In our hubris we devalue ourselves and the wonderful array of creatures about us. We think because we can design and understand complex machines that we ourselves have gleaned the reasoning behind the grandest design of all: Creation. <br />We are very, very wrong to make such arrogant and potentially evil assumptions. <br /><br /><br />May God bless and keep you all. <br />IHSV.

<br />
<br />
One of the strangest aspects of living in this dystopian age is just how bizarre the truth sounds when spoken aloud. <br />
When some very controversial realities are spoken in the form of simple statements sound like the ravings of a paranoid lunatic. <br />
Unfortunately that is by deliberate design in order to form a mindset of self censorship.<br />
<br />
Let's try some, shall we? <br />
<br />
<i><br /><b>Some of the biggest seed and food producing corporations in the world do not want you to know that they have introduced trace amounts of deadly pesticides into the general food supply. </b></i>GMO's, or genetically modified organisms (food stuffs) produced by the worlds largest (monopoly?) corporation of this kind, Monsanto, are dosed with their trademarked 'round up' insect killer. The neuro-agent is introduced into the crops ostensibly to increase crop yields in the presence of insects. Aside from the obvious health issues of these chemicals (remember the rats with tumours?). these chemicals are also killing off birds and pollinating insects - like the honey bee - in never before seen numbers. This revelation has resulted in bans, such as that in the EU. <br />
But, Monsanto and their allies are BIG money. They and their allies have repeatedly defeated bills in North America that would require food sellers to label the products containing these chemicals. Products including animal feed, the meats raised on them, breads, milk, and even infant formulas made from the meals of these GMO plants. <br />
These companies are also engaged in an aggressive buy up schemes of organic farms all around the globe. Talk about eliminating the competition!<br />
An interesting side note: In the Monsanto HQs, the cafeterias ONLY serves NON GMO and organic foods. I guess it's a case of 'Let them eat pesticides'... and we all know how that story ends.<br />
<i><br /> </i><br />
<i><b>Many cities around the world add a deadly poison used in chemical weapon production - in combination with an acid, a delivery agent - that has been scrubbed from Chinese metal foundries to tap water. </b></i>Flourosillcic acid (FA) is an industrial by product of aluminium smelting and is imported from China under waste agreements. It is a principle ingredient in pesticides and chemical weapons. It is the 'fluoride' that is being added to tap water all over the western world. The justification is that it is good for your teeth. The reality is that it is proven that ingested FA reduces IQ and slowly destroys the renal system of organisms that ingest it. Again, we are seeing this practice banned in municipalities all over the world, and then these bans challenges by 'health professionals' in the pay of the big chemical companies. Smoking is good for you, Joe Camel says so! <br />
<br />
<b><i>The government(s) and their corporate pals are spying on everyone, everywhere, all the time. Big brother is watching you! </i></b><br />
Although most people are not comfortable even thinking about this one (wonder why?), they are at least marginally aware of it. CCTV cameras line the intersections of all the major cities in the advanced nations. Many are equipped with face recognition technology. Millions upon millions of people walk about with a 'big brother' screen in their pockets that allow for eavesdropping, tracking, and video imaging in 3d, even when TURNED OFF. On top of that, as the recent public revelations show, there are massive databases and listening centres that are monitoring, recording, and saving all forms of communications of literally hundreds of millions of citizens in the 'free world' alone. In many nations this is, while unconstitutional, permitted by the courts and elected officials. The excuse for this wave of lunacy is 'security'. <br />
These Orwellian/Nazi like measures are ostensibly to protect us from terrorists who, as it is inferred, are so good at what they do human intelligence does not work against them (?!?). We are ALL potential terrorists, extremists, and enemies of the state, apparently. <br />
In short: Your freedom is being exchanged for a false sense of 'safety'. <br />
The information? It will be used as the men behind the curtain see fit.<br />
<br />
<i><b>World political and industrial leaders meet in secret to make decisions about the direction of civilization, without the consent of their electorates or shareholders.</b></i>These long denied confabs have been exposed time and again, and are now finally getting more attention than from the 'fringes' of the media. This years 'Bilderberg' conference in the UK was the most covered event of it's kind ever. That said the MSM played the event down, while attempting to make the protesters and activists look like extremists and nutjobs. The there is the secret elite meetings that have a truly bizarre occult nature. The 'Bohemian Club' meeting in Sonoma, California could not be any stranger. Giant statues of owl gods greet world leaders and banksters. Mock human sacrifice rituals with a hooded priesthood take place along side crowds of cross dressing world leaders, drinking binges, and (male/female) prostitution. Within this circus of the crazy, world changing decisions (ie the Manhattan project) are made. <br />
<b><br /></b>
<b><i>Eugenics sciences are alive and well. </i></b><br />
While most people are duped into believing that the Eugenics movement is long since discredited and dead in the post Nazi world, it is in fact flourishing in the form of groups like Planned Parenthood and UN commissions on 'population control'. These groups have, time and again, been exposed for targeting specific regions, racial groups, and economic strata with their killer programs. <br />
Form slickly promoting the killing of the unborn as a 'women's rights issue' or 'health' (killing?) to restricting medical and food aid, to literally starving out entire regions via trade - these people have never stopped their 'racial hygiene programs'. In fact many of the founders of these groups were NAZI sympathizers during the war, and the Nazis themselves credited them for 'showing the way'. <br />
<br />
<i><b>The 'mainstream' media is a propaganda organ, used for PR purposes by the corporatist elites in government and the halls of power. </b></i>This is probably the most noted and obvious of the examples I have chosen. Most people are aware of this to some degree. Sadly, many think that it is only SOME outlets that are complicit. Most people today play the Hegelian game happily and will parrot of that 'left wing' or 'right wing' media is biased... but NEVER their own political stripe. They are being played off against each other towards some predefined synthesis or compromise that perfectly suits the designers of the squabble. It's a win win for the oligarchs.<br />
Proof? Next time you're watching the news, flip back and forth. While you will see a deliberately divisive spin on both sides, you'll notice that ALL the same stories are being covered (with rare exception) at the SAME TIME. <br />
If that is not proof enough, try thinking outside the box about any single issue and you will quickly note that only two 'sides' of any given issue are being discussed. <br />
Door A or door B. You are allowed to choose only one of two, anything else is deemed 'crazy' or simply censored. The same is true of the 'moderated' comments on news sites. Blind-side the subject, and watch your perfectly sensible observations vanish from the feed. <br />
<br />
<br />
These examples are only a sample of a vast number of bat-shit crazy, whacked out, sounding observations about the world we live in that are actually verifiable truth. <br />
To speak them aloud or write them down may make you question: Is it really so? Am I going crazy? Is this all 'conspiracy theory'? Will my friends and family think I am nuts? <br />
Yes. No. No. Maybe. <br />
For some of you, making these observations known is simply not an option. It would destroy your career, get you in serious 'trouble', or alienate loved ones. <br />
But, that does not stop you from KNOWING these things; or from acting when the time presents itself. <br />
<br />

These highly educated elites understood basic cycles such as the season, the celestial movements, the tides, and the lunar cycles including the dreaded eclipse. <br />
In return for calming the mobs beholden to them, they demanded obedience and sacrifices. Sometimes these were sacrifices of wealth in the form of food stuff or valuable metals and gems. Other times it has been of even more nightmarish and controlling nature: The blood of innocents. <br />
Whether to feed the crops or their demonic gods, these elites demanded and received this blood in the form of ritual killings, bloody games, and infanticide. <br />
This practice is alive and well into the present. <br />
<br />
The modern version of these bejewelled monsters sit on committees, dressed in fine suits and they demand the very same kind of offerings. <br />
<br />
Consider the UN climate conferences and the solutions they propose to abate the natural cycles of warming and cooling our world moves through. <br />
There are calls for 'sustainability'. Not the kind of sustainability of which economists speak. Rather the word, used as it is in these reports, is a reference to control mechanisms. Limits on the freedoms and very life potential of entire regions of our planet. <br />
<br />
These limits could be on energy production, crops, and even the birth rates of human beings. In some areas the regional powers have taken these horrific concepts to policy. China's one child policy, for example, has been praised by the gurus of these very proposals. A savage policy that forces women to kill their unborn for the state. Forced late term abortions and even infanticides. All for 'sustainability'.<br />
<br />
Witness the billionaires and tech tycoons, whose donations to abortion providers dwarf those of powerful nations to international food banks. These men and women of high standing and incredible wealth want us to feel at ease killing our own offspring in order to play with the toys they make, all the while promoting the very act of procreation as a recreational activity. Play, screw, kill - but NEVER think. <br />
<br />
Sadly many of us do. Many more have been conditioned to think this act of willing sacrifice and obedience is 'liberating'. They are grateful for these 'rights'. Moloch is smiling in his hidden grove. The princes of the world burn their cares before him.<br />
<br />
In other cases the same kind of control is coerced. Less obvious and hidden behind a veil of pseudo charity. <br />
Nations rich in natural resources but designated to be 'undeveloped' are targeted economically, then individual citizens are required to be sterilized in order to receive food or medical help. The continent of Africa is riddled with such stories. <br />
<br />
The demand for gold is ever present. Consider the 'carbon credit' systems nakedly designed to crush 'first world' industry and cripple the empowered 'middle classes', while enriching the treasonous despots of the nations targeted in the eugenics programs noted above. In one bold move, these rules would remove the power from the very people who would actually <i>help </i>the individuals - the dreaded educated and altruistic 'middle class' - in the less 'developed' world and place the wealth in the jailers/killers hands. <br />
<br />
The very notion taxing carbon (of which all life cycles on earth are dependent) is abhorrent. <br />
<br />
The media are useful idiots. Tools in this constant PR war. <br />
We are bombarded with story after story about how the 'sky is falling'. We will be flooded, boiled, consumed by giant snakes... the list is endless. <br />
It will happen in a year, a decade, after a 'pause' (convenient) in which the earth's systems have only briefly equalized. But soon, when the cycles begin again, we must rush to appease the gods of climate with our blood and gold. <br />
We must halt the moon in her cycles by giving up all that makes us human. <br />
<br />
Their priesthood has spoken. The earth is angry. The oracle of 'science' has been channelled. You are only an animal, and animals are only machines. <br />
We must obey our Pharaohs, or we will be denounced as heretics. Targeted as 'extremists' deluded by 'conspiracy theories'. <br />
We are labelled as dangerous and mentally ill for seeing through the smoke and mirrors. <br />
But, this is not extremism nor a conspiracy theory. <br />
It is history. The only cycle that they cannot obscure, completely. <br />
<br />
We are not mad or deluded, either. <br />
We simply wish to live, and God forbid, thrive in this wonderful rich world. We seek to spread out and multiply as nature and our creator intended, not simply lay down and die so that those who see themselves as the masters of destiny may bathe in golden pools of our blood. Those who would redefine good and evil. <br />
<br />
We will stay awake. We will stop the cycle. Not of climate, but rather of control.<br />
<br />
May God bless and keep you all. <br />

<br />
My apologies for those who still look in occasionally.
<br />
Life has been very busy. A new child. A new career path. Deaths.
<br />
I was inspired to return to make another assault on a curent method of the Prince of the air.
<br />
A modern method, akin to the worship of the fallen ones in ancient times, but a far more subtle deception and distortion.
<br />
<b>SCIENTISM</b>.
<br />
<br />
My inspiration? Having participated in a back and forth with intelligent, well meaning people on the connection between theories of Natural Selection and Nazi racial and eugenics policies. <br />
<br />
The connection should be easy for anyone who has read the works of Hitler and other famous Nazis. It is naked and obvious. But that did not stop these people from attempting to divert and apologize for <i>the science. </i><br />
The reality?<br />
While these Nazi maniacs brilliantly twisted paganisms blood and soil notions to enrage the peasantry, deliberately distorted Christian teachings to woo the chattering/middle classes; they then took the unprecedented step of seducing the intelligentsia with scientific excuses for their barbarism.Seduce they did. Seduced we still are, even if the justification is used for different but equally barbaric policy. <br />
<br />
This makes me ponder: Evil can be brilliant in the moments before it consumes itself.<br />
<br />
These Nazi scientific justifications demonstrated that intelligence and education are no guarantors of goodness. <br />
<br />
Science is not <i>good</i>. Nor is it <i>evil.</i><br />
It is a tool and is subject to the morality of those who practice it. <br />
In the case of Nazi policy you, dear reader, can surely guess the direction the tool was given. <br />
<br />
Unfortunately many decent people are still captured in the spell of scientism.
That is they <i>believe</i> <i>in</i> science, as one might believe in a loved one, in God, or purposeful or teleological universe. <br />
They worship the tool and ignore the hand that wields it.<br />
<br />
These poor educated dupes have bought into the idea that science is <i>good</i> and exists for it's own ends.
<br />
They often realize, too late, that this is not so once the djinn they seek to discover has escaped it's bottle. <br />
But, by then the evil fruit of their labours is irreversible and insanity often follows.
<br />
Nietzsche raving away to his end, a victim of his own pragmatic, scientific nihilism.
<br />
Oppenheimer weeping for the deaths of multitudes that his work enabled.
<br />
The song always ends the same.
<br />
Moral (pious) inquiry is the science we seek. It is science for the objective good of mankind.
<br />
Science for the sole sake of science is a madness and a tool used for and by evil.
<br />
<br />
<br />
May God Bless you and keep you all.

Words elude me....<br />The video below is EXTREMELY graphic and should not be shown to children. <br />It depicts the beheading of a Catholic Priest and another Christian by the Syrian 'rebels' that many NATO nations want to arm and support. US senators have made their way in country to meet with them and their 'cause' (Jihad) has been painted by many leaders as a 'liberation' movement. <br />See the TRUTH for yourselves, folks. <br />Be WARNED, this is extremely graphic. <br /><br />

Multiple reasons. <br />
His back ground. <br />
His need to profit from the information he claims to want to freely disseminate. <br />
The new age / ancient aliens dogma. <br />
The faith based LEAP to the concept that 'alien' means 'extra terrestrial', that unexplained or unknown equates to visitations by beings 'evolved on other worlds' is not only unscientific, but also fails to recognize the far more baroque and truly interesting aspects of our experienced reality.<br />
<br />
All that said, Dr Greer's new film 'Sirius' is making the rounds on the video sites all around the web, and can now been seen for no charge on a couple of major sites. <br />
I will grudgingly admit that this availability speaks to Dr Greer's integrity. <br />
If he and his producers began demanding these videos be removed and that the only source of viewing the the film became a $10 HD on Demand rental (obviously too expensive and too high bandwidth for more than 70% of the human population), the doctor's credibility would be destroyed. <br />
He must have known the video would be ripped and posted. <br />
He chose for it to happen this way. <br />
So, we can at least assume <i>he believes</i>. <br />
I may not buy his ideas, but he <i>does. </i>That makes 'Sirius' worth watching. It is an insight into a new face on an old faith. <br />A new interpretation of the signs and wonders of the ages. <br />
A materialist, science fiction based, simplistic rendering of reality that still manages to purvey a sense of wonder - especially to young and curious minds. <br />
I don't agree with the conclusions at all. Not even close. <br />
I would also argue it encourages dangerous experimentation with altered mental states and promotes pseudo scientific occultism. That makes it a fascinating study (of the movement), if somewhat risky and Jim Jones like in it's approach. <br />
<br />
And with that introduction, below is the link to Sirius on vimeo for as long as they, and Dr Greer see fit to allow it to be shown.<br />
If you enjoy this educational viewing and would like to share it with others for whatever reason, please purchase the feed or DVD. <br />

<style type="text/css">P { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }</style>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
April ad2013</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br />During the running of the Boston Marathon this year at
least two devices were detonated near the finish line. <br />Three people
were killed instantly, and 200 more injured; some very seriously.
<br />Arms and legs were torn off. Nails, bearings, and shrapnel cut
deep into the organs, heads, and soft flesh of the victims. <br />The
city was shaken. Terrified. Locked down. <br />In an alarmingly
efficient fashion, the new engine of the state swept into action.
<br />The DHS, the new central C&C for all US agencies and security
organizations with a a paramilitary mandate – unlike anything in
previous US history – flooded it's resources into the Boston area
like nothing seen in the States since the second World War.<br />Armoured
troops carriers, heavily armoured vehicles, helicopters, FLIR drones,
and dozens of militarized troops – some agents, some police –
poured into the city. <br /> While the bombers ran, and apparently fought with authorities perusing them - authorities that clearly knew
the who and where of the situation - the residents of suburban
Boston were treated to house to house searches. <br />Dozens of people
were arrested on 'unrelated charges' and heavily armed units stormed
their homes. Videos surfaced online of people being ordered from
their homes by teams of heavily armed men in combat fatigues. <br />The
truest irony was that when the lock-down ended, and the people were
allowed to leave their homes, is exactly when the second suspect was
discovered by a citizen who went out to check on his property.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
So, to compound the misery of the
images of innocent people (children, two of them) torn to pieces on
the streets of Boston; we now are subjected to the 'solution'. <br />The
solution, it seems, is draconian disregard for ptocess and privacy –
in the name of 'security' .<br />This might be a valid debate if the
trade was a real one. <br />I would still, no doubt, side with privacy
and due process – but at least there would be a case to be made for
the counter. There is none. <br />Consider what has already happened in
Boston.<br />This in a city with over two billion dollars worth of
cameras (now the mayor wants more!), in a city that was crawling with
'event' security. There have even been conflicting reports from
authorities about a 'drill' for exactly this kind of event taking
place at the very time of the bombing. <br />(The alphabet people have
since retracted and denied this, but it is pretty clear from the
imagery that there was some sort of heightened presence at the race.)
<br />There was uniformed Guardsmen, tactical police, and even obvious
'help' in the crowds and all are clearly visible in dozens of
pictures and video clips. <br />So drill or alert – whatever the name
or deignation for the deployment - there were people there. <br />There
were dogs. There was equipment. <br />There was a warning about one of
the bombers forwarded from Russian intelligence to US services. The
older brother was even interviewed by the FBI! <br />All that security
was in place. <br />All the intel was being shared. <br />All the rights
of innocent citizens all ready to be stomped on courtesy of a decade
of Orwellian legislations.... and still these young butchers walked
right up and placed two devices in the middle of it ALL. <br />The
trade of liberty for security is a scam. <br />There is no trade. <br />You
can give up your freedoms, that much is true. But 'they' will not
keep you safe. <br />'They' could not if the wanted to, and 'they' just
don't care about you or people like you. <br /><br /><br />So,
good readers...you are probably left wondering: <br />“What does this
guy think about the bombers? <br />What does he think about the motive?
<br />What does he think about the potential for more attacks?<br />He
hasn't said much about that at all. WTF?”<br />Fair enough. I will
state for the record:<br />I think the bombers are twisted, selfish,
cowards who were used by much more cynical minds. <br />I think the
motive was apparent: Terror. I think it was effective and worked
perfectly for the people who planned it, if probably not as much
death as they had hoped for. <br />I think, unfortunately, that the
number of attacks will continue and grow so long as there are elements within
our own power structures who profit immensley from the blowback of
these attacks and who promote false 'cures' and misdirected
preventative measures for these kind of attacks. <br />No, that does
not mean I believe this was a 'false flag'. I don't think Mr Obama
(or Bush) planned this. <br />No, that does not mean I believe that
there is no Muslim Jihad. I do think (know, actually) there are real
ideological enemies out there.<br />What it means is that I believe the
solution to these attacks is far more complex than what we are being
sold, and that some of the corrections that need to be made are at
home. <br /><br /><br />
