The American Idiot

This morning was just like any other morning, I was waiting for my coffee to finish brewing and scrolling through my Facebook News Feed (I really should wait until I have some coffee first) mostly liking memes, thoughts, expressions, and mostly looking for interesting articles to read & share (which seem to come mostly from sponsored advertisements which have been “boosted” by Page moderators); as usual, I had to sift through political propaganda from the “two parties” opposing some political position of their opposing party members, validating what they believe to be truth with half truth and manipulation or outright lies. Mostly I would shake my head (smh), laugh out loud (lol), or make some kind of “reaction” other than just liking the post without explanation for my reaction; I try to avoid political debates on social media, most people are just looking to validate what they believe and will not change their opinions regardless of evidence contrary to their beliefs, it is a huge waste of time that devolves into childish behaviors. Typically if I express my views on a liberally slanted article, meme, or ideal, I become accused of being a conservative; ironically, if comment on a conservatively slanted article, meme, or ideal then I get accused of being a liberal; go figure, try critical thinker.  Every now and then, however, I will place a truthful statement, a challenging remark, a seed of logic and walk away; sometimes arguments (which are nothing more than denials and ignoring what disturbs them) will go on for days without me ever saying another word; sometimes I wonder if they know they are merely arguing with themselves, seeking confirmation bias in a group think. There are actually people that believe the Earth is flat in this day and age, they believe it so much that they get angry and demonize you for being fulled by the grand and worldwide conspiracy and cover up of this flat earth; or people that claim United States astronauts never went to the moon (explain the mirrors, you can check them yourselves and measure the distance between the Earth and moon using the Theory of Special Relativity), I am seriously not making this up. But what disturbs me more than anything about the ignorant American Idiot that knows more about American Idol than they do about global politics, is that they pretend to know about American politics based upon the propaganda of their party affiliations; they don’t seem to realize the game of divide and conquer being purported on them, in which they are willing and active participants.  Go ahead, just ask an American Idiot for their opinion on a political topic (religion is politics too) and what you will get is a parroting of something they heard or read or somewhere, something which was incorrect but confirmed what they already believe based upon their core beliefs and values; having them “share” or reveal their sources will demonstrate this fact of behavior, proving that they are incapable of independent thought, they need to be told what to think, what to wear, how to behave, and how to not harm themselves. They are adult children being ruled by a Nanny State of consciousness, they are so blinded by their beliefs that they refuse to see the faults of their affiliations, they perceive the “other side” as their enemies instead of their kinfolk; they are both manipulated to achieve a means, as both parties work against the people who complain and argue, but do absolutely nothing to make any kind of a change in their society or government. It seems Americans want to roll back time to the civil distress of the 1960′s, or even the 1800′s, or they want to be so “progressive” that even criminals that infringe upon their victims’ rights deserve protection and love, or that equality is the same thing as justice and liberty; they certainly aren’t willing to make the personal changes and sacrifices to make the positive changes which would take the power away from greedy corporations which are now their government, with their CEO in charge of the USA Inc.  What I can’t comprehend is how they can’t see how they are all being played by both sides, you had a president who relieved government relegation enforcement on things like immigration and prohibition of marijuana (cannabis), and what was the results; they now have documented illegal immigrants, documented cannabis patients, and got everyone comfortable with coming out of hiding. So then we go from one extreme to the other, a racist black president going out, a white racist president coming into office; the former reversing everything the one before just did, and “cracking down” on all of these “criminals” breaking the laws that the former did nothing to actually change. Ironically, this allows the state prisons for profits programs to meet their quotas of at least 80% capacity to create prison labor camp sweat shops; slavery and manufacturing are very much alive in American society, they are just in lower global labor markets and this is how they do things in those communist dictatorships.  Each appointed American Dictator in the fascist oligarchy which is all documented through the Supreme Court, Congressional Laws, as well as Executive Orders and Presidential Directives, have spoken about the advancement of the New World Order; ever since John F. Kennedy spoke about the Secret Societies attempting to infiltrate the American government, which got him assassinated by the CIA, which had already been infiltrated, the American “leaders” of the “free (yet heavily regulated and taxed) world” have spoken about the need to advance the corporate globalist agenda for and validate the need for a New World Order or New World Economic Order. Americans have watched as world trade has skyrocketed since 9/11 and two asbestos filled buildings were recklessly demolished and played like a terror attack on the citizens of New York City, as one of the biggest terror attacks a nation could pull on its citizens; they have watched as the majority of the American wealth is spent on large military contracts with select members of the corporate monopoly and military industrial complex. They have watched as the police of the world have been militarized and trained to be military combatants in a war zone, they even support a “border wall” to create their own open air prison, just like the Israel wall project to imprison Palestinians; or the fences of the Native American Reservations, nothing like being held captive on your own lands for hundreds of years, watching the genocide of your people, of your kinfolk.  The American people are waking up to the horrors and reality of the world they have created by funding this machine, this empire; they are reaping the same results from their inaction that the majority of undeveloped nations in the world have felt under the false pretense of capitalist exploitation, they are losing their game of monopoly because they are playing with cheaters. Not only do they continue to play in a rigged game, they expect the cheaters to suddenly start playing fair and by the rules; but the cheaters have already changed the rules to their advantage, so they have no problem with that either. It’s that old Roman Empire philosophy, divided and conquer, bread & circus, incorporate all history into your own history, evolve history to reflect you as the greatest, convince people the invasion was a voluntary necessity which they desired, utilizing the greatest weapon of mass mind control ever conceived in the Holy Bible and the false religion of Christianity which is actually a hypocrisy unto itself because of the adoption of Christian teachings and philosophy; as a large majority of Americans choose to identify America as a “Christian Nation” which also contradicts their constitutional beliefs as the Constitution states that there is no official religion and all religions (including the Church of Satan) get equal protections, and yet they refuse to see things from this perspective. They refuse to see how their silence, their inaction, their allowance of their “representatives” to engage in such crimes against humanity is consent; supporting the troops abroad is support of the expansion of the globalist empire which has left you living in or near poverty and dependent upon a broken, dirty, corrupt, system of mafia domination.  You think it’s bad, I live with these people daily; what I find kind of sad is that I see it spreading to the world, this sickness of ignorance and submission. Those who know that the evil empire is not the savior, police, or hero of the world, bringing freedom, democracy, and peace through superior firepower and mass destruction, while stealing the wealth and resources of every conquered nation; being the world’s leader in illegal gun and drug smuggling and manufacturing, while promoting an anti-drug and anti-gun agenda to create a lucrative black market. You don’t beat the system by becoming the system, you beat the system by exiting the matrix of delusional thinking, by admitting that your cognitive dissonance is caused by the truth in what is challenging your core concepts and beliefs; by learning how to discern truth from fantasy and fiction, by recognizing propaganda and programming for what it is, to understand that a practice of medicine is what keeps you ill, by changing your perspective. Instead of being unquestioning conforming slaves, you should be an independent thinker of critical thought process and logical, rational comprehension; this would be applied “common sense” to things that really don’t make sense, such as the concept that the sun has nothing to do with weather, climate change, global warming, or global cooling; the sheer arrogance to believe man is more powerful than the sun, all based upon beliefs rather than truth and knowledge.  What does all of this complaining on social media accomplish, what is all of this awareness bringing, are you noticing change; if American’s think they are the heroes then who are they waiting for to come save them from the tyranny, overreach, oversight, and downright criminality of their own government? How much longer will they continue to fall for these Nazi campaign slogans of Hope, Change, Make (insert country here) Great Again, and the exact same political & technological ploys utilized by the Nazis to gain power in the first place, much less maintain power; how much longer will they continue to be divided by such insignificant distractions from the important things in their society and lives, how much longer will they continue their same rhetoric, expecting change without making any changes to themselves or their hypocritical thought process of self righteous entitlement of ignorant denial? In order to make a change you must be the change, no amount of government enforcement or public protest made any changes in American policy, the attitudes of the people change and that is what creates change; what is the point of complaint without solutions, I have plenty of solutions that most don’t want to even hear much less entertain.  I could go into detail about my solutions here, but in a way this is a solution as well, especially if it gets some Americans to see themselves and make an aware change in themselves; if I did delve into solutions this article would more than double in size, we can sit and discuss problems all day long, but what would that accomplish in the world? All positive changes begin within and erupt from destruction of the old, in order for a plant to grow it must first be under stress and heat as a seed before it will explode out of its shell to grow and blossom, providing beauty and sustenance; plants also provide the oxygen that humans require to remain alive and breathing, while humans and animals provide the nutrients and gasses that the plants need to grow and produce the oxygen, it’s a symbiotic relationship, as is all life. Why do humans have this great desire to kill, they desire to kill bacteria and viruses whether beneficial to human longevity or not, plants, animals, and even each other; they desire to kill the earth with man made pollutants and chemical combinations, they kill insects because they find them dangerous or annoying, they even desire to kill themselves, whether slowly or quickly.  What happened to the love, it seems to have been replaced with fear and rage against knowledge and understanding; it has been replaced with insult, offense, and self righteous indignation, with jealousy and envy, greed and gluttony. Love has been demonized, made filthy, dirty, something unclean; people no longer trust in love, instincts, or even knowledge, they only trust in themselves and their physical desires. What do people in America  fear the most daily? Losing their cellphone, being without their cellphone, their cellphone losing its charge, is probably the greatest concern facing the general public of America; what would they do without their daily, willful participation, validation, and justification? How could they handle not knowing what to be outraged about next, what to voice their opinions about, how can they know how to identify themselves without someone telling them who they are, how will they know which products to consume and what is cool; how will they make fun of their children, or at least the children of parents grieving the loss of their children, how will they ever prove their holiness by talking shit about their neighbors? These things are important to Americans, these things define them, and they are proud to be like this, they are special in the world, unique, and they desire everyone to be just like them; no matter what their beliefs, since they refuse control themselves, they desire to control everyone else; or at least that is the way I see it.

How To Be Stupid

Denial without explanation, ignorance without investigation, is not the same thing as proving someone wrong; if you want to "discuss" something then you have to provide evidence, not speculative circumstantial reasoning or illogical assumptions, factual evidence to dispute what you deny and choose to ignore. If you are not willing to provide anything other than denial and ignorance without explaining why you believe what you believe, then perhaps you do not understand why you believe what you believe, you just believe it because you do; and you are not looking to understand, rather you are seeking to misunderstand and misinterpret in an attempt to confuse the conversation with circular logic and reasoning, distraction, or insult in order to achieve a confirmation bias in order to satisfy your cognitive dissonance to ease the discomfort of your core beliefs being challenged. Merely seeking out whatever justifies and supports your beliefs, whether half truth or straight up lie, as long as it is in agreement and alignment with your beliefs you accept it; anything else can be denied without investigation because you have already confirmed your opinion is the right one to have, then it doesn't matter how many times or who shows you truth or how your bias may be wrong, you will not accept what you do not believe.

This is why the ignorant will not admit they are behaving in ignorance, the ignorant who choose ignore this post because it doesn't fit their confirmation bias, do so because it disturbs their cognitive dissonance; therefore it is easier to ignore it and justify it with something like, "He doesn't know what he's talking about," or "He doesn't even have a degree," or even "Who is he talking about, I know he didn't just call me ignorant." The ignorant who choose to comment won't even realize that by commenting in insulted disgust and offense they have admitted that they recognize themselves and identify with being an ignorant person, nor will they realize how frustrating and annoying their flat denial and ignorance really is unless their main goal is to aggravate you; to push your buttons and get you as emotional as they are, the online equivalent to repeatedly poking someone in the chest and then blaming them for punching you in the face. In this manner they are able to manipulate the experience in their favor to spin the role of the victim, to demonstrate your poor character and inability to have a "discussion" with them, to discredit your character since they cannot disprove your message; when people ask, "What is wrong with people these days?" this is the answer, simply put, they choose to be stupid because they are ignorant.

True Love

Romeo and Juliet is considered one of the greatest love stories ever written, their friends and family told them to deny their love based in their own personal and selfish hatred, the story ends in tragedy through deception; not all love stories end happily ever after, because fairytales are based in fantasy, not reality.

Warning: Personality Disorder

Do you have a personality? Did you know that is a disorder? It has been found that 100% of disorder comes from disobedience, and that the only way to restore order is to create obedience; studies have shown that those with personalities run a higher risk of disorder and disobedience than those without personalities, this is why personality disorders are so commonly diagnosed in people with personalities. Odds are that you know someone who suffers from personality disorder, many have been diagnosed and are currently under treatment, but sadly many who suffer from this dangerous affliction are not aware they have personality disorder; unfortunately there is no known cure for personality disorder, and 100% of cases have ended in death. You or someone you know may be suffering from personality disorder, it is vital to begin treatment as soon as possible to contain the disorder and thus prolonging the life of the person who suffers from personality disorder; below is a list of symptoms so that you can be aware of personality disorder, if you or someone you know exhibits any or all of these symptoms then seek immediate professional help, it is highly contagious.

-Person will have strong willed personal opinions or views. -Person will have frequent mood swings, whether dependent or independent of stimuli. -Person will believe they are knowledgeable, wise, or have a high opinion of self worth. -Person will believe they have personal rights, liberties, or justice; leading to false ideals of independence. -Person will exhibit signs of paranoia, fear, anger, and other irrationally based emotions. -Person will be prone to fits of laughter and spontaneous bouts of happiness, an obvious sign of their inability to cope with reality. -Person will believe they are capable of critical, rational, or logical thought process; one of the most dangerous, this personality is capable of manipulating others and can be very convincing. -Person will be creative with delusions of grandeur and success, a very irrational personality disorder. -Person will often and use an electronic communication device to spread their personality disorder to others. -Person will be very passionate which can lead to severe emotional responses such as anger, frustration, love, fear, and can even cause death.

It has been proven that personality disorder leads to disobedience and eventually death, but with treatment they can live a full and satisfying life of debt and slavery just like all of those without personalities; there are as many different forms of treatment as there are many different types of personality disorders, but it is a fact that without treatment those suffering from personality disorder will die. While even treatment carries some risk, the risk from not seeking treatment will be fatal; by law we must make you aware of the possible side effects of treatment, but these side effects are rare and may not effect you, when you agree to treatment you consent to try these pharmaceutical treatments at your own risk.

Some known side effects include; nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, rectal bleeding, acute renal failure, blindness, loss of hearing, diabetes, Alzheimer, dementia, confusion, dizziness, vertigo, cancer, bone loss, loss of bone density, tumors, high blood pressure, low blood pressure, thoughts of suicide, depression, mania, paranoia, heart disease, trouble breathing, trouble swallowing, trouble urinating, kidney stones, liver damage, paralysis, coma, constipation, addiction, chemical dependency, ignorance, mind control, numbness, disconnection, pain, muscle spasms, tremors, sweats, nightmares, nerve damage, brain damage, loss of appetite, weight gain, water retention, dehydration, extreme gas, bloating, swelling of hands and feet, loss of extremities, dermatitis, shingles, arthritis, asthma, sensitivity to light, irrational thoughts and behaviors, violence, anger, irritability, intolerance, rage, nervousness, memory loss, debt, loss of freedom, incarceration, abuse, illegal drug use, homelessness, homicidal thoughts, racing thoughts, hoarding, murder, lucid dreams, hallucinations, hearing voices, lying, complacency, swelling of the tongue, yeast infection, hemorrhoids, colon cancer, swelling of the brain, insanity, and death.

Some experiences may vary, and other unknown or unexpected side effects may occur, we are not responsible for any reactions you may incur while undergoing treatment; not all treatments are 100% effective and many people suffering from personality disorder relapse, this market is 100% sustainable. While on medication for treatment of personality disorder do not stop the medication suddenly as your body has become chemically dependent upon the drug, adverse reactions to sudden stoppage of medication are violent and dangerous, doing so can lead to death. While there is no evidence to support any of our conclusions, we are certain that the rational and logical manner in which we present our case for personality disorder and the medical treatment thereof will suffice to pacify the masses and lend credit to our theories and justifications to increase revenue and profit margins; it is certain that if you have a personality then we have a disorder for that personality, it just isn't normal to go through life with a personality, and it's just not fair to those who must live with no personalities. Remember, only you can prevent personality disorder by being complacent and obedient, by being politically correct and not offending anyone, by not questioning what you are told, and by seeking immediate professional help for your personality disorders; consume your pills to treat personality disorder today and accept your treatment tomorrow.

Relative Math

Do you know what 2+2=?

It actually equals 11

How is that you ask? Well, it's actually very simple;

2+2=11, but the number 2 is only representative holding a space, it could have any value I desire, I could replace it with the letter b if I so desired...

So, if I put it into binary code then 2 would actually be a 1;

1+1=11

Okay, so the + symbol is irrelevant as the operator can have an value I assign to it; let's just call it +/- which actually cancels itself out, so it can be observed not to exist at all, so we end up with...

11=11

Or simply put, 11

See how easy that was?

Offensive Cursing

Are you offended when you hear someone cursing, does the sound of someone cussing cause you to feel anger or disgust? Why does what someone else say bother you so much? Did you know that people who cuss are seen as more honest and trustworthy than those who don’t?

Of course there are a lot of people who wouldn't trust someone who cusses, those who wouldn't want to be around a person who uses foul language. There are people who see cussing as a sign of low intellect, as a sign of poor grammar. There are people who would claim it is bad manners to cuss, or that it is an act of disobedience to God.

What I find interesting is that the majority of these people also curse, they just use different words for the act. After all, cursing is more than just words, it’s an action, an event, something which is used as an expletive. For instance, someone may hit their finger with a hammer and exclaim out loud; one person may say something like, “Damn it!” while another person may say “Darn it!” but both carry the same intent. Whether you use a cuss word or a cute variation of a cuss word, a more accepted version of a cuss word still carries the same intent as the cuss word; saying something like, “He’s such a butthole!” is stating the same intent as saying, “He is such an asshole!” 

What is the difference between the two intentions? One is honest and the other is dishonest, can you figure out which one is honest and which is dishonest? If you believe that the cute version is the honest version, you would be wrong. The honest version of the intent is actually saying the word itself, the intent is to curse either way but the person who says damn is being honest int their intent; while the person who says darn is being dishonest in their intent, they are attempting to cover up the fact that they are cursing. They are presenting a fake cuss word in favor of using the real thing in order to keep from being offensive to someone who might not like the honesty of using the actual cuss word, they are not being true to their intent. Worse yet, they are ignorant of their dishonesty and see it as being honest just because they are using a more socially accepted version of a curse word; they feel righteous in their cussing just because they aren't using cuss words, ignoring that their intent is the same but their actions are dishonest. 

There is absolutely no evidence to support that someone who cusses is less intelligent, has a smaller vocabulary, or has poor grammar skills; in fact there are many intelligent people who use curse words, some of the popular literature uses curse words. William Shakespeare was very creative in the use of cursing in his works, he had a very intelligent manner of cussing someone without using curse words; however the insult and intent was the same, and would be found equally offensive to the person who understands what he said to them. If I were to say to you, “Your head is full of shit!” then you may be very offended not only by my cussing but also because I just cussed you; but if I were to say to you, “Your cranial cavity is thoroughly saturated with fecal matter!” then you may not even understand what I just said to you. The intent is the same, either way I am telling you that your head is full of shit; either way I am cursing at you, and if you understood the intelligent curse then you would be equally offended as if I just told you plainly.    

Does God judge the words or the intent, do you really believe that God would be alright with the intent of cussing if you don’t use curse words? It is my understanding that God judges the intent of the heart, so then wouldn't God be equally offended by, “Gosh darn it!” as he would by “God damn it!” after all, both phrases have the same intent; gosh is merely a substitute word for God in that context, just as darn is a substitute word for damn. Don’t even get me started on sins, so many Christians sin daily according the bible, especially the Old Testament, without even realizing they are sinning; the hypocrisy is that they believe their sins are forgiven, no matter how many times they sin, but your sins aren’t forgiven, even if you only do it once. Wouldn't God rather you be honest in your intentions rather than attempting to cover them up? After all, isn't God about truth and honesty? So then why would you think that lying to yourself and others about your intentions would be pleasing to God? 

I have seen it posted on facebook several times, people offended by someone who cusses in one status update and posts a bible verse in another; passive aggressively attacking the behaviors of someone else in order to justify their self righteous behavior. They are attempting to make themselves appear holy and above those who cuss, yet in the bible it states that all are sinners and fall short of the glory of God; not to mention all of the examples of God using sinners in the bible to do the work of God, I find it hard to believe that holy men didn't have the intention of cursing evil. So who are these people trying to pleasing to, God or man? I believe that if God finds cursing offensive, then he would find all forms of cursing offensive; whether it is cute or strong, but I also believe that sins are forgiven. 

So it seems that the only way to not be offensive in the intent is to not cuss in any form or fashion, to not even think of any variation of cuss word; which many may find very difficult, whether they curse in an honest or dishonest fashion. But I would trust someone who exclaims, “Fuck that hurts!” over someone who says, “That freaking hurts!” because at least they are being honest in their intent. Someone who is trying to cover up one thing will try to cover up another, someone who lies to themselves will also lie to another, someone who is not honest even with themselves is not trustworthy in my book. If you are offended by this article, then perhaps it is because you do not value honesty and truth, perhaps you find offense because you believe the lies which society tells you to believe, perhaps you believe the lies of your preacher, perhaps you choose to lie to yourself and desire to believe that you are honest even though your actions and intentions are dishonest; but no matter what you choose to believe, the offense belongs to you, you own that behavior.  Personally, I find words like hate to be much more offensive than any other cuss word, and I know many hate filled Christians who want to impose their beliefs on everyone around them. The Klu Klux Klan claims to be a Christian organization, they claim to be about White Pride; yet their hate leads them to do evil acts like hanging people of different races, and burning crosses. I hear people all the time who say they hate something or someone, hate is a very strong word, an absolute; having hatred for someone or something is a vile emotion, it is an evil thing to have against someone or something. There would probably be several people who hate this message, people who would consider themselves holy; and that is something I find offensive, that people could be so hateful of truth.

Responsibility Of Election

Low voter turn out is a sign of the people awakening, moving into a higher consciousness and level of understanding, rejecting the insane ideals that their vote makes any positive difference. It seems that no matter where democracy prevails, so does voter and election fraud; which has just become easier to do in the electronic age of computer voting, I think it shows that a majority of Americans have come to the conclusion that none of the politicians represent them, and none of the choices offered represent them; so what is the point of voting for someone who you don't support, or electing criminals to entrust to our protection? I mean after all, a vote for the lesser of evil is still an election of evil; if Ron Paul didn't stand a chance against the system, then what chance does any honest person have of getting into the system? I think that it shows a large number of people that see the democratic process as a failure, that are no longer falling for the dividing lines of a party controlled system; it seems the party may just about be over, I prefer to think of it as a bunch of people becoming educated about the reality of world events and becoming aware of the illusion, rather than think it is because too many people are just too ignorant and lazy to go vote; it's called a voting boycott, allowing your choice of not participating in the illusion speak for you, after all, if voting and elections actually changed anything, they would be illegal; instead they spend Billions of dollars to make sure you get out and rock your vote, to make you feel like you actually did something, like your choice made a difference, to keep up their illusion that the people actually elect leaders. All you are voting for is a puppet in a suit reading a teleprompter, any good actor can play the role of president, especially when they have been groomed to play the role; just look at the violations of the constitutional laws, and the overreaching laws they have passed; is the current state of the country what you voted for. is this what you elected; is this a representation of you?   Perhaps we are becoming a nation of anarchists who refuse to vote because it is against our political beliefs to participate in such trivial events of self gratification and national pride; perhaps the majority have awakened, why else would they want to control and regulate the internet? Control your mind to think that everything on the internet is untrue through their television programming, when so much truth is to be found on the internet; you do not desire to regulate things unless you deem them a threat to you and your way of life. How can you be held accountable for the results of the participates when you are not participating in the event in the first place; how can anyone in their sane mind justify the conclusion that by not participating you effect the outcome into a negative effect? Had I voted, I wouldn't have picked your guy, or the other guy; I would have simply wrote in "No Incumbent" still having the same effect as not voting at all; none of the above. See how easily that logic of nonparticipating being the problem is to shatter; much like the illusion of voting making a difference.  In fact, wouldn't logic dictate that the responsibility for the state of affairs would rest completely on the shoulders of the participants of the event? After all, they chose which criminal they wanted to rule over them; and us that didn't participate, so if anyone has a right to complain or cast blame, it should be those who didn't participate, not those who did. If you don't like the results you get from practicing the same behavior over and over again, then it's time to change the behavior and stop the cycle of insanity. A nation being run by sociopath criminals is not a nation of democracy, it is a nation of thugs and bullies; it is a nation of unjust laws, where money can buy your way out of justice; where there is no liberty, only shame. Just look at the results of all of those elections, have you gotten what you voted for, is this the change you wanted? Being publicly molested before you can board mass transit, being suspected by your own government of being a terrorist, being hand fed terror daily at 5,6,and 10; or 24/7 on your cable news channels, keeping you in fear of an enemy they created. Is that what you voted for, is this why you elected these officials to represent you to the world? It's called guilt by association, not guilt by disassociation; not participating in criminal acts does not make you guilty of another person's criminal acts, but participating in a criminal act is a certainty of guilt. It's not rocket science, it doesn't require a degree in poli-sci, a fancy formula, knowledge of election laws, knowledge of how the system works or is supposed to work if it's not being corrupted; it merely takes looking at the facts of reality, the results of decades of voting and elections. The results of decades of lies to get in office and more of the same of business as usual; the only thing that changes is the depth of the corruption, money motivates congress. Don’t believe it, just try introducing a bill and lobbying for it without any money; even if you meet all of the requirements, go through all of the red tape, if there isn't enough money backing your bill or it goes against big industry, then your bill is dead.

Conspiracy Theory Is Rooted In Logic!

 I refrained from using Buzz words that are usually focused upon and the meaning of the message missed. Conspiracy theory is based in logic and understanding; which is what makes it so easy to believe when a little common sense is applied. It is merely unverifiable as the evidence has been covered up with corporate white wash, usually in some wild cover story with no basis in scientific proof.

   Much like the Towers brought down by a couple of Jumbo Jets that it was built to withstand; yet the Empire state building was hit by a much larger military aircraft and withstood the fire and impact of that plane. When science dictates that the speed of a free falling object is the same at which the terminal velocity of the buildings fell; then it makes sense to question the findings of the Star report. A building weakened by suck an impact and fire would have toppled over from just above the impact zone, not fallen straight down without resistance from the much stronger floors below. And why was the rubble so small? Shouldn't there have been bent pieces of iron, long and short in the debris field? Just look at the photo of the cross at ground zero from the iron, why is that iron not mangled? It was near the bottom of the building where no fuel or planes hit, yet it seems as if it were cut to look like a cross. What about the Thermite dust collected from ground zero, and the fact that it smoldered so intensely that the workers could not get near ground zero until it cooled? Where were all of the computers, desks, chairs, and other stuff that you would find a the rubble of major office building? The black box was destroyed by the fire from the jet fuel? I was born in the military, my dad worked on the SR71 Blackbird, especially with the black boxes; they are built to withstand the fire from jet fuel. I won't even touch on the other scientific evidence that even engineers of the world agree exist. Yet, because it can't be verified by a corporate media source, it is a conspiracy theory. Common sense with this overwhelming evidence dictates that someone on the inside helped to bring down those buildings. I do not need proof of who was involved to know that our government would have to have some knowledge or foresight of what would take place on 9/11/2001. The fact that they would use such unscientifically founded information to cover up the truth should tip us off that our own government was involved. If the "terrorists" that were involved were from Egypt and Saudi Arabia, then why didn't we invade those countries? Perhaps because they already sell their oil to us; but the two we invaded did not want to deal with the US, even though we put the leaders in power in the first place by backing their resistance to Russia and Iran respectively.

   So you see; conspiracy theory has a logic to it, you just don't see it because you don't involve yourself in it. Even in light of all of the scientific evidence, there are still Americans that believe we are fighting terror, and that "they" are the ones that brought down the twin towers.Even with the "death" of Osama Bin Laden, we continue to fight a war that was about getting him for the attacks. Belief doesn't make a person right. Just because something isn't verified by the media, doesn't mean it has no basis in logic, reason, or understanding; it simply means that you lack the ability to prove it. Common sense is an oxymoron, especially in this nation where we have been dumbed down and taught to not think for ourselves. To do so means that we deviate from society and obviously suffer from mental disorders. I simply perceive things in a different perspective than the drugged masses with their personality disorders and fluoride toothpaste, fluoride water, fluoride food, and wherever else it is found. Not to mention the recent U.S. study that found antibiotics (which weaken the immune system by doing what it is supposed to do naturally), and several different types of psychoactive medications in municipal drinking water supplies. The study blames Americans for dumping their old medications down the toilet and drains; but by that logic then they also admitted to dumping grey and brown water into our drink water supply. Now do you see why I say that conspiracy theory is rooted in logic, reason, and understanding?

  Parable of Web Code 

  Of course I have a parable as well; I know how to write code. So say I create an app; I have to write the code, I have to do the graphic arts, I have to host it on a server; there is a lot to do, I will need help. So I get others to help me build this app; no one outside of us knows we are building this app. We spend a lot of time getting the app perfect before we release it and write lots of long lines of codes. Once we release the app, the people on the other side of the app only sees the images and links that we built into the app; the average person doesn't even know the code exists; but use the app anyway. We don't tell anyone about our code and it remains a secret as we put a lot of time and effort into hiding that code. Some people suspect there is code behind the app but can't find a way to prove it because we hid the code so well. They have reason to believe it is there because they have some insight into writing code; but the masses don't believe them because they have no proof. Even if one of those that worked with me betrays my code, then I can just say he is lying and ask that proof be provided, even make him out to be insane. Is it so hard to believe that a handful of the world's elite could put together a master plan and manipulate so many people into following their plan?

Pain Relief

He remembered the the clink of his teeth and the feeling of the cold steel on his lips, the taste of the oil on his tongue, the pressure of the barrel against the soft palate in the roof of his mouth; he felt the sweat beading in his palm, as his finger hesitated over the trigger. His sight was blurred, eyes still full of the tears that were streaming down his face, the strands of hair in front of his face a hazy curtain; he couldn't remember how his life came to this moment, it wasn't sudden, it had been a gradual series of events. He just wanted the pain to stop, not just the physical pain, he could deal with as much of that as he need to; no, it was more the emotional pain, that mental pain that washed his mind in darkness. Nor was it a lack of love that he felt, rather it was because of the love he felt, his love for others, that same love that wasn't returned; it was the lack of love from others, the way people treated him as if he didn't even exist, the blame, the contempt he felt from those he loved.

He wasn't a horrible person, he had never killed anyone, he wasn't mean, he just wanted to be happy; but it seemed that no one else thought he deserved to be happy, they had stolen from him, they didn't rob him of anything that could be replaced, it wasn't a material theft. They had stolen his pride, they had battered his ego, what they took from him was his soul; so selfish in their own lives, not caring who they hurt, stabbing his heart with their words. He just couldn't take it anymore, all of them laughing at him, finding him to be their personal joke; he sat there choking on his tears, snot flowing out of his nose over the barrel of the pistol shoved into his mouth, thinking about how no one cared, how no one would even miss him. He had a vision of people laughing about his death, making tasteless jokes at his expense, even in death he wouldn't find any compassion; he saw an empty funeral home, closed casket of course, no way to repair the damage he was about to create to his head.

He wondered how long it would be until anyone even discovered his corpse, he had lived alone for years, he had no friends come to visit him; sure he had the occasional facebook message from people he went to school with, or strangers he considered friends, always promising to visit. Of course the visits never happened, the promises were always broken, he would have been better off without those empty promises; he wished he had never been born, but it was a bit too late for that now, he just didn't want to live another day. Maybe if she had stayed, but they always left, no woman could seem to love him enough to stay with him; when she left, she took a part of him with her, and he never got it back. But none of that would matter in the next few minutes, he knew this wasn't like any of the times before, when he would withdraw the pistol from his mouth; he had no hope left, his life was crumbling around him, and no one even cared, he was tired of just existing.

Even the messages didn't come as often as they once did, he no longer had a phone, although his cellphone had lasted longer than the electricity and water; his utilities had been disconnected for years now, it had been an extended camping trip, except his tent was his house. He hadn't been able to find work either, at first he did alright working odd jobs, but eventually they disappeared just like the corporate jobs; he had sold off just about anything of value, he would pick up cans, collect old air conditioners, anything he could scrap for a few dollars. He had been denied for disability several times, and he didn't qualify for food stamps because he didn't have a job and couldn't provide proof of an income; he begged when he had to, although most people wouldn't even look at him, as if that made him invisible, he felt invisible. He would have been homeless if his house hadn't been paid for, but he couldn't pay the taxes on his property and the county was threatening to seize his home; he had a few tickets, and his child support was so far behind that the state had issued a warrant for his arrest, it seemed he just couldn't win.

He had been a winner when he was younger, he rarely lost anything, he just couldn't figure out where everything went wrong; he made all of the right decisions, he was a good man, took care of his family, paid his debts, was loyal to his employers; he just couldn't figure out where he went wrong. He couldn't understand the lack of compassion from others either, he couldn't remember how many times he had heard people to stop feeling sorry for himself; but he didn't really feel sorry for himself, he just couldn't get anyone to help him, no matter how loudly or how much he cried out for help. The advice he got was that he needed to be medicated for his mental illness, but he wasn't sick, that he knew; it was society which had become terminally ill, a cancer of selfish delight, if it didn't affect them then they weren't concerned about it. He was sure that they would call him selfish for taking his own life, they would blame him, they wouldn't take any responsibility for anything they might have done to him, or lacked doing for him; they couldn't even see their own illness, always telling him to take responsibility but taking none for themselves.

He didn't even bother with a note, why should he, it's not like anyone would care or understand anyway; why should anything be different in his death than it had been in his life, so what would a note accomplish anyway, no one cared about his loneliness, his hopelessness. His neighbor had allowed him to run an extension cord and access to their wifi, that way he could still be in communication with the outside world, look for work, and keep up with the weather; but it seemed like nothing was ever going to improve, he had started writing and actually published a few books, he created products from his artwork, had become a YouTube partner, and created several websites, but he hadn't made any money from any of his online ventures. His most successful venture was to pay for funeral expenses for his ex, which didn't benefit him at all; his son was an adult and had a life of his own, his daughter had rejected him after her mother was murdered, she blamed him for her death and had moved in with friends; and he wasn't allowed to have any role in his youngest son's life.

No, he could see no reason not to take his own life, no matter how many times he heard that things would get better, they just continued to get worse; and the worse things got, the more people abandoned him, he just couldn't win. He had no desire to see how much worse things could get, he had never been homeless before, but he'd never been so close to being homeless; he didn't even have a car to live in, he had sold that too, and it wasn't like he lived in a city, he would have to walk for miles to get to any form of civilization. He wasn't afraid of going to hell, he had already lived through hell, nothing could be any worse on the other side; maybe in his next life he would be successful and happy, anything had to be better than this life. He'd had enough, the gun oil tasted bitter on his tongue, his finger was resting on the trigger; all he had to do was squeeze and it would all be over, the wall would be painted with his brains and blood, his bladder and bowels would be relieved not long after, and that would be how he would be discovered. He heard an explosion that burst his eardrums and saw a bright flash, the smell of burnt gunpowder filled his nasal passages as he fell backward upon the bed; he had done it, this life was over, his memories scattered all over the wall behind him.

Knowing someone and knowing about someone are two different things; one requires studying the person, and the other requires spending time with the person.

Kill Them With Kindness

  Kill them with kindness is an oxymoron, certainly you have realized this before now; kindness can be shown in contempt as well as it can be presented with love.  It is merely the intent with which kindness is shown which is really of concern, is it being extended as a courtesy, is it genuine, is it being use to cover true emotions, to spare feelings; is it honest kindness, kindness for selfish gain, empathetic kindness, is it contemptuous kindness?  So be kind above being honest is not always the most honest thing to do, sometimes it could have disastrous results; such as when mixed with sarcasm or manipulation, or meant to just “blow them off” or maybe considered “brush them off” nowadays, which I admit makes me sound like an old man.   To kill someone is to murder them, it is an act of taking someone’s life from them; it is a behavior of aggressive control, an act of domination.  Is there a kind way to kill someone, is there some kind way to wrap murder up into a mercy package in order for cognitive dissonance to disassociate by justification; certainly, without a doubt, as they say in East Texas where I grew up (and still live), “Some people just need killing.”  But is there really a kind way to take the life of someone who wants desperately to live?  So then what does it really mean to “kill someone with kindness” which would really be a kill with honor, dignity, respect; to kill someone with kindness, typically you would need to be close to them.   A good example of this would be “kiss of death” where the one who is doing the killing honors the soon to be deceased with a kiss to mark the “mark,” so to speak; the betrayal of a friend or relative is typically associated with this type of respectful kill, I’m sure many martyrs throughout history could identify with this experience.  Judas kissed Christ, that was one kiss you didn't want from “The Godfather”; wasn't it Brutus who stabbed Julius Caesar in the back, Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son, I could on and on.  If we can’t be honest with ourselves, then who can we be honest with?   If we are not being true to ourselves, then who can we be honest with; it’s almost second nature to be kind to someone over being honest with them in our modern society, so afraid to offend anyone.  A lot of fashion disasters could be avoided if only someone would be honest and say, “Why yes dear, those jeans do make your ass look big;” however you may want to add just how much you love that big butt to avoid kissing said big butt for the rest of the year, perhaps even life.  And women, you knew those jeans made your butt look big before you even asked; you were just baiting him to see if he would be honest or try to lie to you, it didn't matter what he said, you were going to change them anyway.    Being honest may not be the most popular course of action, but at least it’s not a dishonest course of action; instead of trying to ignore the person as you cross the parking lot of the grocery store, the cringe as they call out your name, the fake smile you put your face as you turn to say, “I didn't even see you there.”  Such a candy coated lie that you can taste it’s sweetness, rolling off your tongue as if it was the gospel itself; waiting for a break or pause in the conversation to insert your reply, and immediate urgency to politely excuse the dismissal.  To be honest, I’d rather be killed by brutal truth than killed with kindness; at least there is honesty within the brutality of murder, but to have a betrayal of loyalty compounded on top of that brutal murder, to know the dishonest intentions prior to the fact, much less before the fact.    Of course I’d rather not be killed at all, I’d really rather just love and be loved; I’d rather coexist with the other inhabitants of this rock we call Earth, to just be another Earthling experiencing everyday life.  Perhaps if we got slapped for killing with kindness instead of being honest, we might have a more honest society; just a quick slap across the cheek adding, “Stop it! Don’t bullshit me, I want the truth! Be honest!”  Of course I don’t really want to advocate violence, but wouldn't you rather hear; “Oh, I was just trying to avoid this awkward exchange in the parking lot, I really don’t like you much and I could really care less about your life; you can feel free to delete from your facebook if you so desire, I probably won’t even notice your gone; honestly, I can’t even remember your name; but I've seen you around the facebook.”

  Of course we would also need to stop being offended so much by what other people do, get on your smartphone device, log in to facebook (as if you’re logged out), and unfriend that bitch that couldn't remember your name and couldn't give you the time of day; then move on, most likely the avoidance will be respected mutually next time.  I know, you’re thinking, “...but, what if...” and let me stop you there; “if” is a very big word, it holds a lot of power over our lives, start putting “what” in front of it and the worry will never end, then fear rules over you.  How about this, stop asking “what could go wrong” and start wondering “what could go right;” are really afraid of failure, or are you afraid of success?  How do you kill someone with kindness and remain honest, how can you use an honest means to achieve a dishonest intent and remain trustworthy?  

  Some men like small butts, some men like big butts, to some men, a butt is a butt; but just because a person has a butt, it doesn't mean they have to be a butthole.  It doesn't matter how much candy coating you put on a turd, it’s still gonna taste like a turd; it may not look or smell like a turd, but it will still taste like candy coated crap.  You may think you are being kind, you may think you are sparing feelings, and that may be your intent; the behavior of assumption goes along with that “what if” mentality, why subject yourself to “saving face” in order to keep up an image which is not true to the image of you?  And yes ladies, if you are standing in front of me in a checkout line; there is a pretty good chance I am checking out your butt, if you don’t turn around, you won’t catch me looking, or at least that’s the way I see it.

Passing Judgement

Everyone is judgmental, that is why people who believe that we should not judge one another really mean that you shouldn't judge them, however they should be able to judge others.  Everyone does it daily, many without even realizing they are casting judgement, or justifying why their judgement is correct while the judgement of others is incorrect; you may even be passing judgement on me or this post while you are reading it.  It may be positive judgement, or it may be negative judgement; but either way you have made up your mind about someone, you have cast judgement upon them.  Some you deem worthy of your time, while others are not as worthy of your most precious commodity, your time.

Labeling people is a way to pass judgement on them, placing them into a general group or category; every label has a connotation to it, placing a value or worth on another based in a general consensus.  Most of my life, people have placed the label of weirdo on me, placing their value above the value of my life; they have called me crazy, insane, strange; all just because they lack the understanding of who I am, of course most them had very limited knowledge in which to base their judgments.  Some of them actually took the time to get to know me, and their labels changed, usually to friend; especially once they realized that I could explain the way I see things in a way that they could understand them too.  Labels divide people up into nice little categories in order to pass judgment on them, like believing that all Palestinians are Muslims or that all Muslims are terrorists; blanket statements are rarely true.

If a person is judgmental by nature, meaning that they either use good judgement or bad judgement, then pretending to not be judgmental would be a behavior of hypocrisy; how can you remove hypocrisy if you refuse to recognize the behavior as a personal behavior?  For example, most Christians are taught not to judge one another, they go to church to hear sermons about it; yet, the help programs judge whether someone is worthy of help from the church, and some people in the church gossip about others, whether they attend church or not.  Some even believe that they have the authority to judge whether a Christian is a true Christian or not based upon whether they attend church regularly or not, in fact, most Christians are very judgmental people; while they are taught not to judge others, they are also taught that you will be able to judge whether a person is in the Spirit by their fruits, they forget or were not taught that Christ also passed judgement on others; like when he chased the bankers and merchants out of the temple.  

It's human nature to use judgement, if we didn't discern right from wrong, if we didn't listen to our intuition about others, then we would be continually taken advantage of, lied to, and our lack of judgement could render all kind of undesirable results, including death.  Even passing judgement upon someone who is judging you is still judgement, some would be arguing in their head right now, saying to themselves that I don't know them, that they are not judgmental at all; and yet, while they may not speak their judgement, they are still thinking judgmental thoughts.  People will pass judgement on you, whether it is right or wrong, people will talk about you, gossip about you, even lie about; but every time they do so, they are in fact showing their true nature to those around them, who may be judging them for their behavior and judgement of others.   What are you thinking right now?  Are you passing a judgemental thought on this article?  Are you telling yourself that you aren't judgemental, that none of this applies to you?  Will you become more aware of your thoughts, how you utilize your judgement?  Are you realizing that you may have judged someone incorrectly?  I can't answer any of these questions for you, all I can do is present the facts; or at least the way I see it...

Science As Religion

There seems to be a new atheist movement which is promoting science in place of religion, what I find really funny about this movement is that they don't seem to realize that they are making science their religion; how do I qualify that statement? Well, within the proper perspective, religion could be considered the political manipulation of spiritual texts which are meant to be interpreted on a personal level; but are taken out of context, and manipulated for personal gain among groups of people to sway their concepts, philosophies, and ideals onto the masses. In this since the atheists have found their religion, and that religion is science; or better yet, only the sciences which they choose to accept as valid, which is oddly enough only the accepted science which supports their beliefs of there being no ultimate creator of everything. In other words, the science they promote is biased to their own beliefs and philosophies; they reject and deny the validity of any scientific study which may validate the concept of intelligent design, or which may validate the spiritual texts of the Creator.  Let's take for example the Theory of Evolution, atheists love to sport this theory of science around as if it is empirical proof that there is no God; first of all, it is still a theory because it is difficult to put through your basic scientific method. It is more of a study of observation rather than science, but the theory of evolution doesn't exactly explain away the idea of a creator, it could also suggest that the creator decided that some designs should be able to adapt to their environment and change for the survival of the species. How do you apply scientific method to studies which require generations to occur, or not occur; what is your control group? See how the theory of evolution isn't even really "science" in the definition these groups typically give to support their ideals of what validates as science. Sure, evolution is a widely accepted belief, but it still requires utilizing the imagination to make the pieces to the puzzle fit; which is why it is still a theory and not a proven Law of Evolution even after generations of observations and studies, that is the only part of science that this theory has a branch in, acceptance of peers.  I dare you to bring up paranormal research with an atheist, what how quickly they dispute the validity of any paranormal research as pseudoscience; yet there is just as much evidence to support spiritual, afterlife activity existing within our own dimension as there is to support the theory of evolution. There is electromagnetic data, temperature data, EVP recordings, physical manifestation, video of objects moving on their own; the evidence of spiritual data collected for generations is massive, yet this science is rejected based upon the fact that the scientists went looking for results and found them. Now they start distracting with rationalization, psychology, or any other science of the mind to support their denial of facts; even when shown that living humans are the control group, we know how they react, we know what they sound like, what kind of readings to expect from them, or the biology which has proven that the human body emits several electromagnetic fields, just as spirits, or souls do in the afterlife.  My favorite science is Physics, it is the study of everything, the understanding of our physical world; physics is the entire reason we have the World Wide Web, the whole point of the internet is for physicists to be able to communicate with each other quicker to share and confirm or disprove each other's experiments and findings. Because of this there has been a huge leap forward in our scientific understanding in decades, instead of generations like it used to take; there are many theories in physics but there has also been much proven to be law, such as the recent discovery of dark matter and dark energy in the universe. The original study made the discovery in 2007, but the results weren't confirmed until 2012; the results were confirmed because others were able to come to the same conclusions with the same set of observations and experiments, they won a Nobel Peace Prize for their discovery in 2012. And yet, theology can be applied to the understanding of physics; what is theology? Well, simply theology is the study of God, the understanding of God, or the science of God; however you choose to look at it.  Theology teaches us that God is everywhere, and within everything, that God created everything, that God is all knowing, that God is infinite with no beginning and no end; while in physics we learn that energy is within everything, it cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can be manipulated and controlled, fequencies and vibrations to create mass. So it seems that the Living God of theology has much in common with the energy of physics, and even more so with the introduction of motion, but I think you get the general idea by now. If science is your religion, then you should be open minded enough to accept the observations of your peers; as Albert Einstein put it in his Theory of Relativity, the observation is subject to the observer. Meaning that the observation is subject to the interpertation of the individual observer, whose findings is subject to their personal understanding of the observation; although what is not observable cannot be seen, it can be observed by it's effects upon the electromagnetic field, and the gravitational field. Science has actually come closer to proving God's existence than disproving God's existence, but then that point is relevant to the observer; in a way, many atheist movements mimic the religious extremeist movements. They all insist that they are the only ones who are right, that they all have all of the answers to draw a conclusion, and they all want everyone to conform to their beliefs. What atheists don't seem to understand is that their own existence proves the existence of God, for if God didn't exist, then there would be no need for atheism to exist either; the denial of a creator, is denial of themselves. When did the moment arrive for you, when did you become aware of your consciousness, when did you realize, I am? And that's the way I see it...

Credible Source

No source is credible, but my source is more credible than your source; nope, no hypocrisy here, just keep moving. Sometimes it's not the statement which contains the hypocrisy, sometimes it's the behavior; if someone truly believes that no source is more credible than another, then why would they promote any source at all? So in actuality, they must believe the source they believe is the most credible source; after all, it's the source they chose to share in order to support their belief. Credibility is earned through trust, and there is a source for any demographic; but it is the trust that information will be correct which we base our personal credibility, just take me for instance.

My credibility was very low when I was younger, not because what I said wasn't true, but because it hadn't come to pass; but once it comes to pass, my credibility rating goes up, such as telling a friend that his best friend had designs on his girlfriend. That best friend of his had told him that I had designs on his girlfriend, which was also a friend of mine; he took his friend's credibility over mine, since my trust and loyalty was already called into question because of my close friendship with his girlfriend. He chose not to believe me and instead took the word of his best friend, who was living with him and his girlfriend; after things came to pass just as I had told him they would, we ended up working at the same place again. It was then that he told me that he should have listened to me, and told me how his best friend took advantage of problems they were having and that she was with him now; I had been exiled from their lives, and yet my credibility improved with him because what I said had come to pass.

If someone, even the media is caught delivering false information, then it lowers their credibility; the next time people may not be so quick to take their word, they can only apologize so many times before all credibility is lost. Trust and respect are the basis of credibility, facts tend to be more credible than speculation and assumption; in my example, I merely speculated and assumed his best friend had designs on his girlfriend. However, that speculation was based in facts obtained by me personally, facts of which my friend was unaware; and I was unable to provide any evidence to the facts, as it was merely based upon my knowledge of events. Regardless, my trust and respect were returned to me after the truth became known, my credibility was returned; and I could tell many stories much in the same light about a myriad of topics, I could have spent a large portion of my life saying, "I told you so," if I engaged in that type of behavior. But then that kind of arrogant behavior is just the type of behavior which would diminish respect and credibility, no matter what the success rate; earning credibility can take a long time, and once it is lost, it's very difficult to regain.

Conscious Reality

What exactly is an altered state of consciousness? How do we define the terminology used in that statement? We understand that a state of consciousness is an awareness of being, as in the literal 3rd dimensional space time; and yet we operate on a subconscious level, we do not think about every single breath we take, we just do it. We also meld conscious with subconscious when we dream, wouldn't that also be an altered state of consciousness?

The stereotypical view or opinion, is that an altered state of consciousness means that someone is on drugs; typically a hallucinogenic compound, to alter the mind's perception. It's even found it's place in our culture with speech such as, "that dude is trippin'"; or "she must be trippin'" thus indicating that the person is in an altered state of consciousness. I call it an opinion because this view is typically based in prejudiced bias without any merited facts, rooted in emotional response triggers at drug references; deeply held convictions based in beliefs held since childhood, uninformed in factual data.

One of the main reasons I don't agree with the stereotypical model is that there are many ways to achieve an altered state of consciousness, very few of them require drugs; for instance, when someone goes into meditation or prayer, they are entering into an altered state of consciousness. Whenever you become angry, you have altered your conscious state of being; everyone alters their state of consciousness daily, at least to some degree. The facts are still the facts, truth is still truth; the only thing that is different, is the perception of the observer; your state of consciousness is altered by the perspective in which you view your experience.

Consciousness is what you see, what is seen; subconsciousness is what is hidden, what is unseen, but still exists. In order to alter any state of consciousness, both parts within you must cooperate; two becoming one being of awareness, a vibrational frequency contained within mass. It becomes easier to develop your level of consciousness with an open mind, which alters the perspective of perception of the observer; altering the state of consciousness of being, otherwise known as growth. Anyone, anywhere can alter their consciousness by changing their mind; by dropping their opinions and stereotypes, losing their blame and labels. By changing the way we see things, we begin to see the way our perception affects us; we begin to see changes in our reality, manifesting through our altered states of consciousness.

Read it until you understand it, and it may just alter your state of consciousness; ignore it without understanding, and what you will share is opinion disguised as information. Being conscious of being is relatively simple upon observation, but understanding such a revelation isn't so simple; but in order to manifest an altered state of consciousness in your environment, you must first achieve an altered state of consciousness within yourself. Will you use your consciousness for war, is your consciousness conflict and fear; or will you use your consciousness for peace, is your consciousness love and compassion, do you know forgiveness? The root word of ignorance is ignore, one cannot learn from something ignored; ignoring consciousness is denial of being, yet there you are, being you.
