    I have read the book. It is powerful and historic. If only every American citizen would read this book and learn how they have been wronged and taken advantage of by this man. Most people don't even know what he did to the American Population during his term while pretending to be a President. It's just outrageous. I too hope Bugliosi sticks to it and sees it carried through. Bush/Cheney and Company are the largest criminal organization to rape the America to date. They need to be brought before the Congress and the the American People and face the penalities for what they've done.

    (even more insights and commentary!)

    I'm joyfully willing to take the consequences of being wrong... but I am confident and positive enough in my Self-Knowledge that I KNOW I will never have to face an Eternal Hellfire or any kind of Judgment. That's what outrages and irks Orthodox Christians (and other religious believers) about Gnostics - because they are so damned CONFIDENT and SELF-ASSURED about what they're saying that it just raises hackles. For all I know - I am genetically Gnostic and just able to accept it and express it and be comfortable with it just like some people are genetically gay.

    To me - the threat and fear of hellfire and damnation is like two people who have a mortal terror of spiders. When  Person A is able to "transcend" that fear of spiders and realize there really is nothing to fear, the other person who hasn't had that "transcendent" experience kind of feels jealous and angry that the other person is "ahead" of them so to speak - or is "free" while they remain caged in their irrational fear of spiders. Person B WANTS Person A to become afraid of spiders again because they don't want to suffer under this burden alone.

    But as a GNOSTIC - I'm showing you that there is a LIFE outside of the fear of spiders.... or rather - there is a life and comfortable reality outside of the threat and fear of eternal damnation of hellfire. It's just a powerful psychological threshold that you have to break through in you want to continue to grow spiritually. Once you're free of it - you'll see how heavy of a burden it was and how it spiritually debilitated you. It's a CURSE. FEAR is a power that YOU give energy to. You CAN withdraw that energy and the FEAR will go away and you will see right through it and be liberated.

    No one in the 21st Century - not Christian, not Muslim - should have to LIVE in constant FEAR of some SPIRITUAL DOOM... because it's not real. It's a trick that the priests learned early on - that while we have the power to tell the masses GOOD and WONDERFUL things about the SPIRIT WORLD to entice and draw people to our leadership, we also can use TERRIBLE and DREAFUL things about the SPIRIT WORLD to trap and terrorize people into STAYING under our leadership. We can frighten them into not wanting to disbelieve us. We can control their minds and lives through this kind of spiritual dread and fear.

    But I have seen through that illusion - and I am far enough past it now to KNOW for a FACT that that's all it was - nothing but make-believe smoke and mirrors and threats meant to control my mind and keep my thinking along one direction.

    Every individual needs to summon the courage from WITHIN the SELF to break out of the confines of that kind of fear mongering because that's MIDDLE AGES medieval era mind control... we're in the 21st Century. We have open communcations with anyone we want on the entire globe. We have access to authentic information in realtime. There is no need to still remain hidden under the fear of that imaginary dark cloud any longer.

    I KNOW for a fact that what I KNOW is True for myself and that's all I need. I don't even need to worry about Belief and Faith. I KNOW it's True for me - but I can't share that with you and have no interest in trying to convince you come over to my side. Sure, I think you'd be much happier and spiritually liberated if you were to have the same realizations of the Truth as I have - but you have to have them on your own terms and in your own way, generated from your own life experiences and who you are. I can't MAKE them happen for you. It all has to be authentic and it has to come entirely from the Source of your own Being, your True Self.

    That's what I've found and I KNOW it's rock solid and real. It was scary at first and I'll admit it's about as dangerous and edgy as life gets when you make the first steps towards discovering your authentic inner nature, but I don't regret ANY of it for a second... and now that I look back on it - discovering myself and who I authentically was within (without all the outside bullshit - the exterior comfort roles I was playing) was by far the best time of my life. That inner seeking and exploration; that Soul Searching is the best time of a man's life... by far... and it can be done at ANY age... whenever you're ready... you just DO IT... honestly and authentically...

    *In the voice of Dr. Froidberg*

    "I just keep adding... more value for your money!"

     

     

    I'm not afraid to be wrong. That's between me and God. I'll argue my position and explain myself if and when I face God myself and accept any consequences on my own terms as an Individual and sovereign Being.

    I don't think of God in human terms as having a gender either... God cannot be a male or a female for a truly spiritual being would not need a penis and testicles... and after all, the hormone testosterone is what makes us MALE, and I do not think God has a need for glands which produce the chemical testosterone. It's preposterous.

    I CRINGE every time I hear HE or HIM or HIS (or Her or She) in reference to God....

    God is MORE than I am aware of in this limited body and mind. I can KNOW God exists, but it's plain to me that I cannot KNOW anything ABOUT GOD because transcends my limited beliefs and categories. GOD is GREATER than anything I can IMAGINE.

    But by understanding and accepting this - I have a natural responsibility and obligation to ACT RESPONSIBLY... this transcendent GOD has given me the ability to discern between right and wrong, good and evil...

    I can CHOOSE to do GOOD out of my own Self-Center for my OWN reasons and out of my OWN sense of honor, duty and responsibility - I do not NEED an External God figure to frighten or threaten me into acting GOOD and RIGHT. I do what is RIGHT and GOOD because I have the God given ability of Discernment and Conscience and Judgment.

    But I'm not going to play with that or treat it lightly. That's a AWESOME responsibility to have as an individual. So I will do the right thing because I KNOW it is the right thing - not because I am too afraid to do the wrong thing.

    Religions must dissolve for mankind psyche to evolve into maturation and responsibility.

    Religion is a crutch which originally propped us up - but now hold us back.

    We need to accept the Truth of who we really ARE and surrender the comfortable delusion of placing all the authority and blame on a God and a Devil.

    Humankind makes its own good and evil.

    WE - each one of us - as Individuals decides what happens - WE are the ones responsible for the world we live in and the consequences of our actions. That's why we need to live AUTHENTICALLY and HONESTLY and not rely on fictional texts to serve as judge and final world FOR us. It is our own evolving and 'in the here and now' CONSCIENCE that is the the SACRED DIRECTION of GOD... not some well-intended tribal instructions written down by some well-meaning scribes over 4000 years ago.

    Eventually we need to purge ourselves of the dross and cobwebs of our past religious history. It was a psychological crutch meant to compensate for our lack of real knowledge and information. But as we gather authentic data now and learn what the Universe is REALLY like - we need to be able to put aside the old molds and frameworks that served us well back then and adopt new ones that will serve us well now - for this age and time.

    The bible - for all its sayings of wisdom and stories of poetic truth - is nothing more than a manmade piece of human literature - a speculative analysis of what COULD BE out there as seen through the minds of ancient holy men... but now - after setting foot on the moon and sending probes to Mars and understanding, testing and proving everything from quantum mechanics with the Hubble Space Telescope to evolutionary biology with virtual computer systems which can mimic the complex intererations that actually take place in the real world - we are opening our eyes to a new world.. a new horizon... one in which we leave behind our former gods and embrace THEIR former ideals for OUR OWN... we become the gods... WE INHERIT THE NOBLE GODHOOD we projected out onto all those statues and paintings and we reach out and stretch our hands into the stars, into the multitudes of countless galaxies and beyond and share our hard earned wisdom of self-responsibility and our hard fought reverance for peace with whatever else might be out there and still just as in the dark as we used to be under the cloud of our former manmade religions.... Christianity... Islam... Judaism... Mithraism... Zorastroism... Roman... Greek... Babylonian, Assyrian, Egyptian and Sumerian....

    Before humankind can leave the cradle of the Earth - humanity must mature past the delusions of religion and superstition and forge an authentic spiritual path out into the stars and perhaps one day - evolve enough to actually UNDERSTAND and COME TO KNOW the AUTHENTIC and TRUE GOD that began everything and set into motion the everything and the nothing that we know and don't know....

    I didn't say Benjamin Franked INVENTED corrective lenses - he DEVELOPED them and showed how they could be used for common eyesight correction in America in the late 18th Century. He played a large part in POPULARIZING spectacles by advocating them in his writings. And he did invent the novel idea of bi-focal glasses - that is one lens at the bottom for close reading and one lens at the top to correct distance sighting.

    But that's irrelevant to my point - which was that humankind has only very recently corrected Evolution's flawed vision. We've only started wearing corrective lenses in the last 200 years or so. This is why there are now so many people with blurry vision genes because they have survived to pass this gene onto their offspring.

    I've read there's a 100% chance you will need corrective lenses if both parents have blurry vision and a 50% chance you will need corrective lenses if only one parent has a gene for blurry vision.

    Evolution is quite simple and apparent - we can see it at work with genetics by observing the effects of multi-generational offspring.

    I cannot believe in this day and age there would be any educated individuals left on earth (besides some hidden tribal natives) who don't understand and know that evolution is a fact and realize that we can actually manipulate it if we want.

    That's what's so dangerous about cloning and genetically modified foods - the ethical issues - we are interferring with the natural selection process of evolution which created us. We don't know how messing with some of these evolutionary variables will effect the overall system as it seems to be quite inter-connected and inter-dependent like a web of life.

    Cloning and Genetic modification may be like introducing cancerous tumors into the natural process of evolution which we don't totally understand yet. Thus, I don't advocate that we go down that path, tampering with genetics and artificially forcing evolutionary events until we better understand the consequences.

    But in order to make the right and best informed decisions, you first have to understand that Evolution is indeed a real process, it does indeed work exactly like modeled and described. No politician should be allowed to VOTE on an issue concerning cloning and genetic modification unless they are educated as to exactly how evolutionary biology works and understands how it can be affected.

    There simply isn't time for allowing traditional religious beliefs which are clearly wrong, out of date, obseolete, proven wrong again and again to even enter the debate.

    Children need to be educated in the scientific REALITY of what's REALLY happenening - what we can really observe and prove and reproduce in the lab... Creationism and Intelligent Design are simply nostalgic throw backs to an ancient mindset where we humans NEEDED to believe we were special and created by a special Creator and and had a specific destiny... but all of that is imaginal thinking... it would be nice, yes - but it's time to admit "Santa Claus" isn't real and grow up as a species and start taking these responsibilites for our selves.

    But shuffling our obligations and responsibilies (like protecting every human life as sacred and taking care of the Earth) them off onto a Creator, we are keeping ourselves children and infantile and saying "we don't understand" and "we're not mature enough to know" and "we're not responsible enough yet" to be that empowered.

    But that's bullshit.

    We need to become - as a species - self aware - self responsible - self directed - self authoratiative and operate compassionately and wisely out of a mature sense of authentic understanding of our situtation (not relying on biblical fairy tales) and taking responsibility for our actions and directions as individuals as a collective whole.

    Once we can put aside the delusional security blanket of a Creator and Salvator behind us - we realize that we have it within ourselves to do the things we formerly only thought God was capable of.

    WE can be noble, compassionate, just, honest, peacful, loving, generative... all on our own for our OWN reasons because WE DECIDE TO BE... we don't need ruling classes of priests and politicians trying to establish civilization through fear and threat of eternal damnation, enforcing human behavioral rules under the aegies of fictional fables like the Bible or Koran or the Talmud...

    When we as a whole can rise ABOVE this ancient and infantile clinging to a Creator with a Divine Destiny idea - we can BECOME creators ourselves and begin to establish REAL destinies for ourselves and the worlds about us.

    Again - I still believe in a God - A Source of All Being - an Eternal and Infinite Unknowable Mystery - and I KNOW that there is an unknowable GOD in the Universe as I have had direct personal communion with it and realized to my very Soul that it did not create this specific Universe's forms and patterns and ways... it is instead the Energy of Potentiality and Possiblility... it is the Void that WE as incarnated beings need to CREATE as we need it through our endless cycles of living and dying.

    I don't have anything to share with anyone else - no message to preach - no path to follow - just the wondrous revelation that on my own terms and to my own personal satisfaction - I have met God and KNOW that God exists - beyond any doubt and you can too if you'd just let go of all the imposed belief systems which are nothing more than manmade attempt to make something out of nothing - to pretend to be the answer - to speculate and guess as to the meaning and purpose and direction and laws of life.... but you don't need any of that if you just let go of it all and just BE.... but even with that said - I'm NOT saying you're inferior if you don't do that - if you want to believe in something than by all means BELIEVE in it! There's nothing wrong with that approach either! Just DON'T EVER try to force it onto anyone else or look down or judge anyone else because they believe diffently. Don't expect or depend your neighbor to share your belief. In this world of opposite forces and balancing energies - there's always going to be two sides to any issue, any idea, any concept. And that's normal. There's always going to be conflict. It's just the nature of things.

    Four  other quick things about the eyesight and evolution letter which have come up which I liked to quickly address before I forget....

    1. When I refer to individuals as being "best adapted to survive", I'm not implying any MORAL judgements about their inferiority or superiority. Just as I don't think white people are superior to black people, I don't think people with perfect vision are superior to blurry-eyed vision. They are simply "better adapted to survive" the harsh environmental situations we all belong to. Evolution has NOTHING to do with morality. That's an invented HUMAN concept which is entirely arbitrary and becoming increasingly meaningless the more we understand about the variances in human behavior.

    2. OF COURSE Evolution should be taught in schools! From the 1st grade on up! It's a Scientific FACT on par with the SCIENTIFIC FACT that the Earth goes AROUND the Sun and not the other way around. Evolution is obvious, observable, repeatable in the laboratory and follows very predictible guidelines which can be observed, monitored and even tweaked from the outside. Our entire knowledge of genetics (which involves everything from breeding cows to making better anti-biotics is DEPENDENT upon Evolution being correct, stable and scientifically predictible which it cleary is.

    3. Which brings me to my third point - which is that I'll bet the farm that 99% of people who don't believe in Evolution simply don't understand it. That's not saying they are dumb and CAN'T understand - they either REFUSE to understand or simply haven't been educated in this very complex scientific field which requires a pretty deep understanding of the functional mechanics of MICRO-BIOLOGY and EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY.

    It staggers me that the same person who hasn't studied ASTRO-PHYSICS will be able to take it as fact that the Earth goes around the Sun even though they've never been out in deep outer space to prove it to themselves - but these same people who take the solar centric theory as fact still refuse to "believe" in Evolution on some kind of tenous and illogical 'religious beliefs' just because ONE very ancient book states otherwise.

    That's just hypocrisy and shoddy, pick and choose buffet style belief system. There's no consistency or integrity to that persons kind of world view. It's just whatever's most comfortable and convenient.

    4. The Fallen world posit is just another fancy term for the all too convenient Satanic Conspiracy that states that anything not supported by the bible is actually a "trick" of some kind by the Devil or some Evil Being who wishes us to remain ignorant of God's Truth. That's just bullshit. It's just a boogeyman story developed by some guys who didn't know the answers and invented some catch net to bolster their own fabrications. I won't even entertain it as anything but childish fairy tale thinking. It's totally bogus and bunk and shouldn't even enter an intellectual discussion. Either give me 100% concrete proof the Devil exists or entirely exclude that whole "fallen world of sin" and "Satan leading us astray" garbage all together. No sane, intelligent individual should fall for that hogwash.

    Again - no offense to anyway - but that's just how I understand things.

    I realize that I put myself out on a limb with this question, but I'm willing to take the heat of doing so.

    I feel its necessary to hash these issues out and get to the bottom of hem rather then just having a rote belief without consideration for logic or reason.

    Someone asked me: If evolution is so wonderful and we all evolve to bigger and better things eventually, why are there more kids with glasses than ever before ?    Seems like we may be going the wrong way.

    Why are there more kids with glasses than ever before? Because our self-aware Consciousness has broughtus to a state of self-cognizance of our evolutionary state and enabledus to realize what features need to be tweaked and corrected... that's why we wear glasses.

    We have useless, blurry vision NOT because God was inept and couldn't design functioning eyeballs intelligently -nor because God was just cruel and wanted some of his creations to dither around in the blurry dark like a useless pack of blind mice...but because our eyeballs are a product of natural selection and are an evolutionary development. And as such, they aren't quite perfect. There is still a great variance in the ability of the human eye to focus. And because we do wear glasses - and we have SELF-corrected this evolutionary imperfection - we may be thwarting the evolutionary process itself.

    By correcting our blurry vision with corrective lenses, we could simply be multiplying the gene pool's occurrences of blurry-eyed humans and allowing blurry visioned humans to mate with more or less the same frequency as those who have perfect sight. We may have then, in a sense, thwarted our optical evolutionary progress by self-correcting it from without.

    It's all explainable with evolution and natural selection. There's no intelligent design necessary with Nature. It's all positive adaption and negative extinction. It's simple and elegant, but it takes a long time to work,a VERY long time.

    We have reached a point in our evolution where we have become SELF-AWARE of ourselves and CONSCIOUS of the underlying evolutionary process that makes us up. When we become SELF-AWARE, we become cognizant of the flaws of our design - such as the fact that some people are born nearly blind due to imperfectly focused vision.

    But why would an INTELLIGENT designer make this kind of a sloppy fudge?It just doesn't make sense. Why would an intelligent creator create the wonder of vision that is as complicated and precise as a camera, but not know how to make our newborn eyes focused so as to take in all the information and wonder that is available to us?

    So... we come to three primary possibilities...

    1. We have a SADISTIC CREATOR who deliberately maims his creations and makes their eyesight unfocused for some unknown purpose that is beyond our understanding. (This makes the Creator a sick bastard who likes tobe cruel to his creations and give them everything they need to survive but deliberately blurs their eyesight for his own unknown reasons.)


    2. Or we have an UNINTELLIGENT DESIGNER who doesn't know quite know what he's doing and he's making mistakes and producing flawed beings.This kind of God has the will and means to create but he's not very smart - so some of his creations are flawed with blurry vision.

    3. Or NATURAL SELECTION... we have single celled beings evolving out of a soup of nutrients which realize it's easier to survive when they organize into more complex organizations and so they continue to organize into increasingly complex organizations until we reach the complexity of being able sense light and this evolves and adapts and grows into faculties which are more discerning about the subtleties of light, which in turn can make out shapes and bring the external world into focus... obviously, the sharper visioned adaptions will survive,the blurred vision ones will die off rapidly and won't spread their genes into the broader pool.

    Human beings are anthro-centric in their thinking. This may - in fact - actually be an successful evolutionary adaption. We see - or project - into the void - our own human meanings and expectations.The same is true with evolution. We see a perfectly natural and random process and project our anthropomorphic expections of what we know as 'intelligence' which afterall is actually a HUMAN quality - and may not be characteristic of any Intelligent Being that is NOT totally human -and think we see it in the feedback we generate from our own expectations.If you are familiar with quantum mechanics - you would know that ifthere wasn't a human observer looking at all the infinite particle probability waves and collapsing them into definite realities - those realities would not exist because the infinite probabilities would had never been collapsed and been set to a specific occurrence or witnessed event that we humans with LIMITED sensory input (only five senses of quite possibly an INFINITE spectrum of sensory possibilities) can give HUMAN meaning and significance to.
    What I'm trying to get at is that there is a very obvious reason that we tend to overlook just why it is that we humans tend to want to PROJECT an expectation of a very HUMAN-like God-being with HUMAN-likeintelligence out there somewhere - because that's just a comfortable and common sensical assumption to make when you don't look at the overall problem TOO deeply or closely.
    Doug's POSIT #42:
    I posit that if a computer programmer were to build a relatively simple set of instructions which did nothing more than mimic natural selection and evolutionary adaptive strategies - that is start out with the most fundamental and basic manifold which duplicated our Universe's natural forces of nature (from gravity to nuclear forces not to mention the effect of cosmic rays which cause mutations) and the various particles present in nature and all of their interactive probabilities and then set the whole thing on super-fast forward...
    ...eventually, these particles would tend to organize and build complexity all on their own without any intelligent designer manipulating them or guiding them...
    ...and EVENTUALLY - they would begin to assemble into simple celluar structures which would mutate into infinite varieties, some surviving the matrix parameters, some not - until after a few billion cycles of compressed time - you would have a (relatively to us) funky looking intelligent, self-aware, conscious artificial intelligent species of  virtual beings which would be CONVINCED that their their entire design and form and being was closely and purposely intelligently designed by some invisible Intelligent Creator which looked EXACTLY like them and was intimately involved with their daily personal concerns down to each individual being.
    But would that be true?
    Not really - although you as an intelligent entity did write the basic code which established the simple foundation of particles and forces and then set it into random motion - you did not DESIGN the intelligent beings which spontaneously resulted through the interactions of natural selection and evolutionary adaption. You are as foreign and alien and detached from that virtual species as a cactus is to polar bear, but only by many more orders of separation.
    The point is - life and sentient, intelligent human beings in particular do not HAVE to have an intelligent designer... it can happen all by itself over time given enough interacting variables and time.
    INTELLIGENCE is a HUMAN characteristic that we PROJECT onto our expectation of what a GOD should be. But INTELLIGENCE may only be a HUMAN quality and may not exist in ANY form or fashion OUTSIDE of the HUMAN species. In fact, INTELLIGENCE may be what makes us UNIQUELY HUMAN. There doesn't have to be ANY OTHER intelligence OUT there for us to simply BE what we are and what the Universe has formed out of us through natural selection and evolutionary adaption.
    Any need to cling to an idea of an INTELLIGENT DESIGNER is simply wishful thinking... because we're like little children who WANT to know our PARENTS and ask 'Where did we come from?' and 'Who are we?' and 'What is our purpose here?' - but the truth is - we may never know those answers because they may be irrelevant... perhaps it is our destiny TO MAKE our own way - to forge our OWN purpose and eventually BECOME the GODS we so WANT to be out there somewhere looking our for us and guiding us and giving our existence some kind of higher meaning and significance.
    There may come a point when we have to wake up to that fact and start the business of doing what we were originally INTENDED to do by some Higher Source or God - and that is begin to tend to the naturally evolved creations that have evolved in this Universe over the course of time and becomes Conscious Stewards of the planets and eventually the stars.
