The
enemy
I
have been accused of not knowing who I am.
In other words, when I was young I believed that everyone deserves a
place to live. Everyone deserves clean
water to drink. Everyone deserves food
to eat. And I still believe that. But if you ask me whether I am a communist,
I will reply no I am not. Just look at
how dissidents are (or were) treated in a communist country and you see how
little the rulers value human life and liberty.
So
I am not a communist.
I
am a radical in terms of how human rights are perceived. Everyone deserves freedom of choice. No one should be locked up for psychiatric
reasons. There should be no locked
doors. There should be no psychiatric
drugging, no forced drugging, no forced electroshock. I am against electroshock altogether.
One
of the most interesting parts of communism was the dialectic, presumably
ultimately from Hegel. A thesis. An antithesis. And a synthesis, combining both of these. Then a new thesis from the synthesis. And a new antithesis. And so on.
It goes on and on forever.
So
the communists could claim that communism was inevitable.
It
was simply the result of the dialectic.
The
capitalists, on the other hand, had the invisible hand of the free market. They had the belief that government should
not be in control of 100 percent of a nation’s resources and power. They had a belief in freedom. And that is why I love America. Freedom.
The freedom to say what is on your mind. The freedom of worship.
Now
we have Christianity vs. cults. Think
of Erhard Seminars Training. It was a
kind of a cult from the 70’s. It
claimed that whatever happens to you, you are responsible for. A millionaire is responsible for having
become a millionaire. A homeless person
is responsible for being homeless. A
sick person, a cancer patient, someone who dies, was responsible for that. This cult took “responsibility” and raised
it to an infinite amount. Got into a
car accident? That was your responsibility. You did it.
Got cancer? You did it.
And
so on.
So
we have free will, chance, taking responsibility, and destiny. And it all comes from the same thing. You.
Scientology has something similar.
The
thesis is Christianity. The antithesis
is the outlaw, the one who creates his own reality. The book is No Country For Old Men. And the struggle goes on.
It will go on until a new synthesis is reached. Or until the good guy (the law man) defeats
the evil guy (the outlaw.) But in a
country based on freedoms, you can’t prevent people from following a cult. A lot of different cults have this
characteristic: they think that
whatever your current situation is, you have “chosen” that current
situation. Or that, through the Law of
Attraction, you can change your reality through changing your thoughts. The tone of your thoughts. The vibration of your thoughts.
So
I would recommend that people read No Country For Old Men. And see the movie. Because there is an outlaw out there. And there is a different philosophy out there, different from
Christianity, and it can be the basis for being an outlaw. Hitler believed (or thought he did) some of
the philosophy of Nietzsche. The will
to power. And all that. That everything in life boils down to the
will to power. The philosophy of the
serpent.
The
thing is, though, that a nation reaps what it sows. An individual reaps what he sows. There is a God. And there
is ultimate justice. “All we, like
sheep, have gone astray.” Each
following his own way. That is why we
need Jesus Christ. We need to listen to
the words of Jesus.
I
don’t know where this thesis antithesis thing is going to end up, but I do know
that I am with Jesus Christ and God as Judge.
“God is not mocked, whatsoever a man soweth, that also shall he reap.”
Sir
Lancelot goes and joins a repentant group of monks in the film Excalibur. When someone recognizes him, he cries out,
“They made themselves into gods!” That
is when King Arthur was ailing, and the country was a wasteland.
So
I’m here to ask you, have you repented?
Have you come to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? Or are you out doing whatever your flesh
feels like doing? Because there is a
stone not created by God. It is the
philosopher’s stone. And there are
people who use it to turn lead into gold.
But there is no God there. It is
a Godless country. It is damnation.
