Like the entirety of this blog. Pointless.
Oddly claimable, out of context
Psalm 33 12
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
Saw this, not on a bumper sticker, rather, a covering half the truck tailgate sticker. The other half was covered with some MAGA megalomaniac message.
Are egos so fragile, that in order for an individual to scrape and claw for their perception and scraps of their own divinity, they feel compelled to purchase adhesive based vinyl placarding with printed wavy flag backgrounds, to express something that was never intended for the occupiers of this country in the first place?
Coercing the occupants in following vehicles to consider that the driver of the truck ahead of them is so special he is to be considered a beneficiary of God’s own inheritance?
Why would anyone do that, or express that to everyone, let alone, believe it is true?
When further minimal research reveals the context to include everybody on the planet.
Psalm 33 13-14
13 The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. 14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
“Let me tell you something folks, God Does not give a flying fuck about America, ok? He doesn’t care. He never cared about this country. He never has. He never will. He doesn’t care about this country any more than he cares about Mongolia, Transylvania, Pittsburgh, the Suez Canal or the North Pole. He simply doesn’t care, ok.
Listen, there are 200 countries in the world, do these people honestly think God is sitting around picking out his favorites?
Why would he do that?
Why would God have a favorite country? And why would it be America of all the countries? Because we have the most money? Because he likes our national anthem? Maybe it’s because he heard we have 18 delicious flavours of classic Rice-O-Ronie?
It’s Delusional Thinking.
If these people believe in God, they must have heard that God Loves Everyone, and he loves them equally. So why would these people ask God to do something that goes against his own teaching? Maybe they ought to check with that Jesus fella. They’re always talking about “What would Jesus do”?
They don’t want to know so they can do it, they just want to know so they can tell other people to do it.”

Or perhaps a better title
“The Devil You Know”
Relax
This is just a thought experiment
So grab your society scope
Focus what is under the slimy slide
Here is what you’ll see
Self squished together
With all of their FJB Flags and
Let’s go Brandon Stickers
Plus 45 is our president sentiments
Now rest your weary eyes and close them
Pictures it is 2024 during the primaries
For the Republican nomination
It is 45 against……… Jesus Christ
Who has finally returned to
Make his home planet great again
Since like his opponent he has no money
He plays off his notoriety to be
Followed relentlessly by the media
Makes no promises just does what he does
Feeding the hungry
Caring for the indigent
Healing the sick
Regardless of skin color
Social status or possessions
Multitudes of people
Whatever faith or none
Teaches his way to the light
Duplicated by the healed and satiated
45 is losing ground quickly
So he cries FAKER NEWS even louder
Going into the election
It is a sad but true close race……
Guess who “wins”
Yep, 45 because it is better to go with
The devil you know
Than an enlightened
Master of Wisdom
Spiritual teacher
With a track record
Of provable behavior and kindness
Who has no obligation
To the gun lobby, oil corporations
Or the pharmaceutical industry
Who after a gracious loss
Continues to do what he does
No popularity contest for ego
Has been signed
The waiver released
For your participation
On this wild ride
In this bizarre reality
Miraculously maintained
Everything works
The way it is supposed to
Glitches notwithstanding
The house of mirrors
Is the trickiest
Sometimes considered
The most dangerous
Reflecting mostly
What is inside
The liability is all yours
For how you choose
To interact with the
Waves and particles
Changing at moments
So fast you won’t notice
Feel emotions you can’t touch
See things that aren’t there
Remaining in this dimension
Till such a time you select
Transferring to another reality
Where is that agreement
To be signed?
Must be at the home office
“The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it, you think it’s real because that’s how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it’s very brightly coloured and it’s very loud and it’s fun, for a while.
Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question, is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, “Hey — don’t worry, don’t be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride…”
And we… kill those people.
“Shut him up.”
“We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real.”
Just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. But it doesn’t matter because:
“It’s just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It’s only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one.”
Here’s what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defences each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.”
– Bill Hicks
Money can not buy faith, but faith can buy money.
If someone offered you a billion dollars to believe something you did not believe, you could not do it. You might be able to say you believe it, for the money. Yet, if the ability to spend it is, contingent on believing the paid for “belief”, you would have anything extra to spend.
Because, you would know, you didn’t believe something unbelievable to you.
Therefore, money can not buy faith.
However, the “money” you do have in the bank is non existent. It is represented by ink on paper, or digits displayed on a screen. Still, your “faith”, can “buy” that you “have” money.
Faith:
2 b (1) : firm belief in something for which there is no proof

“Pretty neat deal, huh? You know how we got it? We made the whole fucking thing up!”
– George Carlin
Seems a tad ironic, that the “money”, you do have, you don’t. That the money you could have, you can’t. Which, either real reality, is…….based on faith. Still, am quite sure, you can take that……..to the bank.
“Just an observation,

Different glasses.”
– Angelo Devlin
Since my faith, tells me, I am wearing glasses in the first place.
Inspired by the last post, regarding money’s existence and listening to Brian Greene’s audio book “The Fabric Of The Cosmos” Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality.
To which, I’ve only started listening to. Or already know all the information inside, and am just listening to it as a reminder.
That’s another post, for another “time”, linearly speaking.
A follow-up to Money, Faith, Reality.
Having gleaned everything so far in this dense dimension, and I do mean dense. It is my clearest or vaguest perception. That all that is, is. Always has been, always will be.
Like God and words, malleable and ever changing depending on the subjective view of a divine being’s coagulation of cells.
Miraculously formed into an artist as a bi-pedal oxygen breathing, monoxide exhaling, red-blooded, skeleton supported, solar powered, carbon-based, large brained, earth inhabitant omnivore.
Anything to the contrary, such as an invisible dude floating in the ether was bored and “made” everything for his deadly amusement.
Or, that it all came from a big bang of an exploding baseball, are both distractions keeping everyone separate from knowing that we are all one consciousness, and could behave accordingly.
“No tree has branches so foolish
as to fight amongst themselves.”
~ Native American Proverb
No theologian or scientist is likely or unlikely to convince me otherwise with their nonexistent proof.
No matter (ha) how close Michelangeloian hand of man to God close anyone gets to explaining away a beginning, there is always a prior existence of the existence of nothing. Which in and of itself is something.
It all comes down to what one believes.

First up, money does not exist*. It is an implement of manufactured consent, used to barter exchanges. Usually time for money, then money for possessions. When neither exist.
Save for the arbitrary mental manipulation that if you want to “own” something, you will have to “work” for it. Giving twenty five or so percentage of it, for the privilege to do so.
Pssst. (Hint.) If you can’t take it with you, you can’t own it.
When we all could be working to make sure everyone is housed and fed, with clean drinking water. Nah, we don’t want to “own” that. We’ll leave that……up to Jesus.
Nudnicks are coming out of the woodwork to regurgitate what was repeated on Faux news, without thought or comparison as to real debts that will have to be paid. Crying and whining to no one who will listen due to school loans being forgiven. Boo hoo.
With viral memes expressing soap opera sentiments like.
“Congrats to everyone who didn’t have college debt. Now you do”. Or “Just to be clear, there is no plan to eliminate student debt. There is a plan to transfer that debt to those that don’t owe it.” Waaah.
Who is going to pay the death debt to the Karmic cashier, for all the human deaths that occur from state sanctioned murders of Sovereign citizens, for cheap, blood on our hands resources. Filling our tanks and making batteries, that we may work. While destroying the home we live in/on.
Executions of slow adults who may not have understood their actions, or random racist murders of unarmed black people, strictly for being black. Hmmm?
To which as taxpayers we are all witting and unwitting accomplices. Guessing the collective is going to let Jesus catch that debt too. When the fuck, are we going to be responsible for our self’s? Jesus, has to be close to broke at this point, don’t you think?
How about all the invisible money given to corporations to make sure they remain solvent. Having already been built and maintained by the proletarian “work” force.
Like auto manufacturers and get this…banks. Ooops, almost forgot, we need cars to drive to work to pay the bank interest on manufactured “money”. Hmmm.
“This whole motherfucking economy built on a house of cards. First of all, you gotta get this shit, get that federal reserve back on a gold standard. What the fuck is that? We got government printing off Fiat currency.
//
It’s a *charade fiat currency. The consumer gotta understand, that the currency only have as much value as the consumer have faith in the currency, you gotta back that shit up with precious metal.
Fuck Keynesian economic Philosophy.”
– Doug Stanhope
Meanwhile, we are driving by ourselves on shitty roads, that if the engineers whose debt we may have paid, could get to work on a solution for that, or high speed rail. Or some other form of public transportation, where one might be confronted with getting to know …………. themself.

“Blood On The World’s Hands”
“Sometimes it makes me wonder
Sometimes it makes me question
Sometimes it makes me saddened
Always it makes me angry but…
When you can see it happening
The madness that’s all around you
Nobody seems to worry
The world seems so powerless to act…
It’s out of control
Blood on the world’s hands
Each day a new toll
Another assassination
The same day a new creation
But what are they coming into
Security of a world that brings…
One day another killing
Somewhere there’s someone starving
Another a savage raping
Meanwhile there’s someone
Laughing at us
It’s out of control
Blood on the world’s hands
Each day it goes on
Brutality and aggression
Tomorrow another lesson
Expecting another air raid
Praying for a ceasefire
They say things are getting better
No need to be complacent
There’s chaos across the border
And one day it could be happening to us
It’s out of control
Blood on the world’s hands
It’s our epitaph
It’s out of control
Someone should know
Blood on the world’s hands
Someone Should”
– Iron Maiden
GOD
With the word, WORD
Besides, it is in the Bible.
“In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
John 1:1
It actually broadens the scope of the power, as an all powerful entity by removing the largest obstacle from us reaching our divine evolution. That a shadowy Santa Clause, grandfatherly caricature type is always creepily watching you.
“He’s making a list
And checking it twice;
He’s gonna find out who’s naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin’ to town
(He sees you when you’re sleeping)
(He knows when you’re awake)
He knows if you’ve been bad or good
{So be good for goodness sake}!”
And of course…
“Religion has actually convinced people that there’s an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do.
And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever ’til the end of time!.
But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He’s all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can’t handle money! “
– George Carlin
WORD does not make that distinction,
Sometimes allegedly helping you in ways that make no sense, nor did you or would you ask or pray for. Either way being obligated to thank him for answered or unanswered prayers.
Sometimes I thank Word
For unanswered prayers
Remember when you’re talkin’
To the Word in here
That just because Word doesn’t answer
Doesn’t mean Word don’t care
Some of Word’s greatest gifts
Are unanswered prayers
Apologies to Garth Brooks
“In the beginning WORD created the heavens and the earth.”
– Genesis 1 1
If there were no WORD, there would be no words to describe things, or exist in the first place. Heaven or earth only exist because of the words.
“Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid. Then we assign a word to a thought and we’re stuck with that word for that thought, so be careful with words.
I like to think that the same words that hurt can heal, it is a matter of how you pick them.”
– George Carlin
I am breaking this down as I go along. Let’s try, “WORD” be with you. That works, one would never be left alone in silence, all by themselves because Word/s would always be with them.
WORD is all powerful, all knowing, well of course, all you have to do is read WORD’s holy book…..The Unabridged Dictionary, it is all there, usually with “cross” references.
If one doesn’t understand the word, there is always the thesaurus to help. Also no-one would have to go to a “special building once a week to compare clothing.” – GC
Libraries are open throughout the day and are accessible online. That is the power of WORD.
WORD also translates to all languages, otherwise there would be no other language.
Thank WORD for words, otherwise we would both be staring at an empty screen.

Glad there are words for observations. Thank you and Word for stopping by to read them.
Has disappeared
No one can describe
What they see / feel
Forget the three
Blind person’s description
“Three blind men come across an elephant. The first man happens upon its leg, and concludes it’s a tree. The second man bumps into its trunk, and concludes it’s a snake. The last blind man feels its tail, and concludes it’s a broom.”
– A parable with so many variations it is hard to pinpoint who said it or why, save that three blind guys were actually trying to describe what they “saw” when encountering an elephant. Like that would happen.
Let’s take the leg perspective
Since it is the only thing to stand on
But will look at it with eyes wide open
Blind or not blind, what is a “tree” is no longer an elephant’s leg, depending on who is seeing / feeling it.
A “blind” logger “sees” a tree, that is a paycheck.
A “blind” forest ranger “sees” a tree that may not have enough moisture to survive a forest fire.
A “blind” corporation “sees” a tree, feeling around for the next one to see how many can quickly cut down for a huge profit.
A “blind” carpenter “sees” a tree and figures out how many studs and rafters it can be made into.
A “blind” environmentalist, “sees” a tree that must never be cut down for any reason whatsoever. Even though the trees previously cut down to build them a house was okay.
No wonder we can’t see the forest through the trees, a big elephant is standing in the way of what it is, a forest with all the apt descriptions above, depending on who is looking at it.
The “blind” sleeping “woke” after feeling / seeing all around the elephant are having a nightmare of a time, trying to decipher which pronoun to assign the elephant.
Even though, long after the elephant is dead, the archeologists will be able to determine that the elephant that was in the room, was indeed an elephant.
“Just an observation,

At least they are not made from a tree.
Creationism VS Evolution
Spirituality VS Science
Belief VS Speculation
Un-provable VS Improbable
The useless educational debate is whether to or not to teach Creationism VS Evolution.
Preferably neither, when it comes to blindly and blatantly indoctrinating divine factory fresh vehicles, carrying souls into deadly dichotomous destruction based on nothing but competing theories, yet being in print, so it must be “true”.
How about……. Since everything is happening all at once, energy cannot be created or destroyed. That alleged institutions of education, rather than indoctrinating a corporate or religious agenda, instill WONDER.
“Wonder:
Noun
1a: a cause of astonishment or admiration
1b: a miracle
2 : the quality of exciting amazed admiration
3 : rapt attention or astonishment at something awesomely mysterious or new to one’s experience
Verb
1a : to be in a state of wonder
1b : to feel surprise
2 : to feel curiosity or doubt”
M-W.com
Instead of an invisible dude, living in the sky who, by repeated, revised, written and rewritten accounts, created earth with night lights and day lights. After hovering over waters that theoretically couldn’t be there in the first place. Hmmmm.
Which is as un-provable as, everything came from a baseball size mass and with one big bang, spread out into the infinite cosmos with a quadra-tetri-google-gazzillion amount of stars and planets that there is no end to.
“Let’s just think about this for a minute”
– Bill Hicks
Using intuition and introspection along with wonder, will reveal how ridiculous both sound. What harm could come from guiding newly arrived divine beings from another dimension that everything that is…..just is, always is. It merely changes shape, by transferring back and forth between kinetic and stored energy. Being waves or particles by merely being viewed by a viewer.
That without either theory crammed into their cranium, are just as wise as their alleged teachers pretend to be and are actually here for us to learn from. If we would only listen.
“Let’s just think about this for a minute”
– Bill Hicks
Children say the darndest things, and if one is listening, can determine their perspective has not been gleaned from anything or anyone in their surroundings since they’ve been born. Guess what? They brought it with them.
Unfortunately, since it may not make sense to the alleged adults, it gets dismissed or discarded. Refraining from sharing any further wisdom, we probably need to hear.
The first two things that would get tossed out the educational window would be religion and possessions. Both here now, but viewed differently, would disappear.
Unless Science accidentally stumbles across “the end of the universe” where in between all the vacuums of galaxies and black holes it discovers absolutely nothing at the “edge”. We ought to teach from what is actually known. In its thinnest interpretation could be considered “facts”.
While religions confess, all their bs is made up to control primitive people, which keeps getting altered to cover previous released bs. To raise funds to build tax shelters and God approved jets and mansions.
As for possessions, how can one own anything, knowing that when they return to a different dimension, they can not take anything with them. Hmmm?
Think of the quantum leap we could make in our collective intelligent evolution if we were not bogged down in bogus beliefs, diabolical disinformation designed to distract divine beings in this dense dimension. It would be like growing an extra mind thumb, that we might be able to grasp new realities and start using the other 90% of our brain.

Morality is just a play
A play on words that is
The correlation
Of the degrees of morality is
Intertwined with words used
To describe uncomfortable
Stuff we don’t like to think about
Mostly surrounding “death” things
Too scary and misunderstood
So we fool ourselves with words
By euphemisms and soft language
Warning ⚠️ It is going to get dark
Hold on and sure your footing
On where you stand in your comfort zone
Just remember
“They’re only words. You can’t be afraid of words that speak the truth, even if it’s an unpleasant truth.”
– George Carlin
There is a “bit”, perhaps personal revalation by the comedian Doug Stanhope that exemplifies this. Recognize the responsibility in the language that reveals the unpleasant truth.
“So I knocked up my wife a year and a half ago. It was the first abortion… The only abortion, I’ve had… But it was might have been the longest abortion of all time. It took a month to have.
//
We didn’t have an abortion because we weren’t ready to take care of a child, we were irresponsible, or because we’re not financially capable of taking…….. The reason we had it is ’cause I really wanted to see what it felt like to kill a baby. I just do not want you to judge.”
– Doug Stanhope
I do not know Doug Stanhope, have most of his cd’s and have seen him live once. He did not scapegoat his wife, that she had the abortion, abdicating responsibility.
In my best humanistic perception, find it difficult to consider that anyone would want to “kill” a baby, let alone Doug Stanhope.
In my perception those words were delivered in jest, to get a laugh. However, it represents a truth, that usually only comedians can deliver, in a context that makes it funny. Not that killing babies is funny. Though It resonates loudly as a truth.
About the same truth as when Robert O’Neil allegedly killed Osama Bin Laden. People frown on the former and celebrate the later, usually by waving flags and drinking beer.
Same event is occurring, eliminating a “problem” via murder. Collected taxes pay for the unseen unpleasant killing, making every taxpayer an accessory to war crimes. As guilty as the presidential perpetrator for ordering the “hit”. A.K.A. acceptable murder*. Because it occurs outside a womb.
Don’t worry, no one is going to be arrested, we would all be in jail, and the economy would collapse.
“The economy that’s fake anyway!”
– Bill Hicks
If we dismiss “death”, by compartmentalizing it in our cranium, in crafty euphemisms, the “death” has still occured. Changing the language only serves to make one “feel” more comfortable, as to how it comes about.
For the longest time, I have made the correlation between the hypocrisy, that it is not okay to abort a fetus, terminate a pregnancy (murder a human being (in a womb)), but it is perfectly okay to eliminate a target, eradicate an enemy, (murder a human being (out of a womb)).
Sadly, both seem to be a problem solver, either individually or collectively. Hmmmm. When…….both “problems” did not need to be “created” in the first place, with a little known trick of abstinence. Ooopsie. Trouble is abstinence sounds weak and prudish.
Abstinence:
the practice of abstaining from something : the practice of having something that is wanted or enjoyable
– M-W.com
(Either individually or collectively). Usually involving rutting or rockets. Human rutting, never out of season because it is enjoyable.
Manufacturing rockets and guns, to load with bombs and bullets to eliminate people occupying Sovereign nations to access their resources, because people like to move faster.
Just because the US is not directly involved in the war in Ukraine, don’t think it is not for oil.
“Look at what we kill. Mosquitoes and flies, because they’re pests! Lions and tigers, because it’s fun!
Chickens and pigs, because we’re hungry. Pheasants and quail, because it’s fun, and we’re hungry.
And people! We kill people, because they’re pests… and it’s fun!”
– George Carlin
It all boils down to the use of language in this strange existence of murder and mayhem. Here is the twist. Ironically, nothing would change, if all of a sudden, we were honest with our selves by de-euphemising our spoken, written dialog.
Except that whilst in a distinct humanoid vehicular soul carrier, one will be using language of responsibility.
Maybe after a while it would sink in, acknowledging that public pooled money is used to kill, murder, destroy, annihilate, more out of the womb fetuses, than in the womb fetuses. Then it might collectively occur, not to manufacture so many in the first place.

Was going to make the following a separate post, but will leave it here instead.
Death
Technically, death does not occur. Inasmuch as “Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be changed from one form to another.” (Albert Einstein).
Save for our perceived indoctrinated illusion that we are alive. Only slightly aware of our consciousness of being a conscious being.
However, it is a game we have agreed to play, a ride we chose to get on. A role of a lifetime in endless roles of lifetimes.
