It is the nature of people to defend their established identity, and all the beliefs and opinions which make them what they typically are...and to deny or ridicule beliefs and opionions of a widely differing nature. Politicians take advantage of those tendencies, in order to divide and conquer the public, and they serve the highest bidder.

And so, we all play out the games we are already most familiar with...until those games blow up in our faces or until we die...or until we transform ourselves into more loving beings...whichever comes first. A trul loving being loves regardless of the circumstance, but that can only be done be realizing who you actually are...and who everyone else actually is.

All are well intentioned...according to their own understanding. All are capable of loving and useful conduct...through practicing love. All are also capable of grievous errors in judgement, and all are capable of unwittingly serving destructive forces of command...through giving in to fear.

It is plain to me that I live in a drug-obsessed, drug-pushing, drug dealing society, with a lot of legal drugs and a few illegal ones. It's a tossup as to which set of drugs, legal or illegal, yields the highest profit to the guys at the top. I don't think they much care, as long as the money rolls in. They are blinded by greed. They have no idea what existence is about.

GUEST, if you are fairly much on the mark, I can well understand why you would choose to remain anonymous...

If you're not so much on the mark, well, there are a number of other nightmare scenarios to consider which could also end this society as we know it...severe weather changes, comets, war, disease, planetary shift on its axis, alien invasion, biological warfare, economic collapse, starvation, shortage of pure water, overpopulation...

Take your pick. The bookstores and Internet are absolutely full of it. Ask Art Bell. He seems to be making a good living off such stories.

Nothing intrigues people as much as disaster.

But what does disaster have to do with your growth as a living soul, learning about life and embodying love? It could be an opportunity to demonstrate that love, I suppose, couldn't it?

Why should I obsess about death, when I WILL die anyway, regardless, and when I already HAVE died a few thousand times before this lifetime anyway???
