"From its very beginnings in Greece, the Western political tradition has looked upon the political order as a common order created to deal with those concerns in which all of the members of society have some interest." - Sheldon S. Wolin, Politics and Vision

Socialism = Communism = Fascism



Six points of individualist vs collectivist belief systems

Origin of human rights - from God = intrinsic comes with creation vs from 'consensus' = granted rights by state.

Group supremacy - individual autonomy supreme vs individual sacrificed for duration of the Utopian state.

Coercion vs freedom - "rule of law" vs freedom of choice.

Equality vs inequality - all immune systems destroyed vs predatory "exceptions" for the ruling pathocracy.

Role of private property - independent decision making on usevs decision dependent on state decrees about use.

Proper role of the state - distant protection of life, liberty and property vs interventionist care providing controller.

Collectivist tyrannical regimes work to disrupt any type of group loyalty and transfer that loyalty to the state.



Things to Come 1936

'Things to Come' Is a Trip Back to the Retro-Future



On Christmas Eve, the citizens of the Art Deco metropolis of Everytown find themselves under attack by waves of flying bombers.

It is the first strike in a conflict that, as a montage of dates and destruction tells us, will eventually wind down in the 1970s, with Everytown reduced to ruins and society to a feudal state dominated by a demented warlord.

Things are looking grim indeed, until a tiny, streamlined airplane arrives bearing an ambassador from enlightened technocrats come together to form a planetary government they poetically call Wings Over the World.

New World Order solves human survival problems of conquering nature by moving underground into the MGM Grand which sports a giant flat screen.

Industry occurs on a massive scale with giant automated machinery watched over by white coat lab technicians, operating levers and pushing buttons.

New gadgets allow instant communication, speed transportation, and entertain people with flat screen televisions, wrist phones and flying cars.

Flying Cars That Actually Fly

With the problems of life on earth solved, mankind prepares to take its first steps into space, thanks to a giant space gun that will fire a capsule with a new Adam and Eve into the starry night to round the moon and return.

The only naysayer is a pesky artist who fears so much progress poses a threat to human individuality so he builds a historical mythical library.

Khoisan languages share click consonants and do not belong to other African language families.

Before the Bantu expansion, Khoisan languages, or languages like them, were spread throughout southern and eastern Africa.

Khoisan languages are currently restricted to the Kalahari Desert, primarily in Namibia and Botswana, and to the Rift Valley in central Tanzania.

Khoisan languages are endangered, and several are moribund or extinct.

Most have no written record.

The only widespread Khoisan language is Khoekhoe (also known as Khoekhoegowab, Nàmá or Damara) of Namibia, Botswana and South Africa, with a quarter of a million speakers; Sandawe in Tanzania is second in number with some 40–80,000, some monolingual; and the !Kung language of the northern Kalahari spoken by ~ 16,000.

Khoisan languages are best known for their use of click consonants as phonemes.



"Speech is civilization itself.

A word, even a contradictory word,

preserves contact -

it is silence which isolates."

Thomas Mann

"The saddest aspect of life now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom."

Isaac Asimov








Otherside



"Systems of ideology and systems of religion can be recognized by the kinds of societies that invented them.

The means by which people feed themselves determines how they think.

Agricultural societies believe in rain gods and seed gods and gods for every manner of thing that might affect the harvest.

People who herd animals believe in a shepherd god.

In both these kinds of cultures you see a primitive notion of gods as helpers, as big people watching from above, like parents or elder siblings.

Religions suggesting sacrifice or even praying to a god to ask them to do something material are the religions of desperate and ignorant people.

It is only when you get to the more advanced secure societies that you get a religion ready to face the universe honestly, to announce there is no clear sign of divinity, except for the existence of the cosmos in and of itself, which means that everything is holy." - Kim Stanley Robinson

This website defines a new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The author feels that the faλsification of reaλity outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from Яeality and that this has been done purposefully by an internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the human race. Religi☯us int☯lerance ☯ccurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religi☸us beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of philºsºphy nªmed The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with Ĉ∞n through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing the spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate ˘rime."

This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire to c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the w☸rld ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the eg● w●rship and the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation with bi☣hazards at the point of a gun.

American social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general through c✡rp✡rate media by press☟ng em☠ti☠nal butt☠ns which have been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior mass media psychological operations. The results have been the destruction of the fami♙y and the destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra˘tion and ˘oer˘ion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
