This website will cover politics, health, environment, religion, science, philosophy.and basically all those things that affect man's condition. We hope to have some humour to digest the truth.
1. We believe that one of the greatest failures in our society is the failure of religion to uphold it's sacred position in society. Religion has turned into a man centric effort to build Babylons. So many churches are really just corporations trying to meet the bottom line. What effect are churches having on drug addiction, sex abuse, violence, and poverty. If you look at the big churches in Austin, Texas, they spend most of their money just keeping their behemoth churches afloat and begging for money. We believe that the only way churches in America can be effective is to be small, which is the heritage of the American religious experience. In India you will actually see Mosques and Temples that provide enormous medical and food help to the poor. If you look at the budgets of most American churches you will see that most of the money goes to maintaining a corporate-like growth policy of buildings and schools. More on this later.
2. The Political system is in need of great reform but the problem is, where to start? It is so complex that many reforms need to be addressed simultaneously. We do no think that campaign finance reform will work unless it is balanced with addressing other measures like political advertising, lobbying reform, etc. The major problem of the political system is that the American people have taken for granted the participation that is necessary for this republican system to work. My solution is that we need to progress more deeply into democracy and away from a republican government. Systems do not function well in stasis. They need to grow or dissolve away. Right now our republic is dissolving into a military state.
3. The health of our country is being systematically destroyed by a trade off for market economies. An example is the massive consumption of sodas which are basically phosphoric acid and sugar. When did phosphoric acid and sugar become nutrition or part of the human diet? The market economies have dictated that soda consumption is now the money generator for education and sports. How did this happen? We create so many drugs and medications that no one knows how these chemicals work in the body in conjunction or seperately. There is no comprehensive effort to find out either.
4. Market economies are good and efficient but should always be subservient to the needs of the society. We have an atheist Ayn Randian objectivism mixed with a Calvanist idea of hard work, purity and stoic determination. The result is, you work hard and stay determined on my objective of material affluence. Subvert spirituality, humanity, and the environment to market forces. God only exists as a manifestation of our human efforts.
5.We are headed towards a military society that has many flaws we hope can be addressed to ameliorate the effects of living under a military government. The first change needs to be made in the military. The glass ceiling for poor people to become leaders of slaughter needs to be removed. In America, if a soldier enters the military as a private, he can never become a 4 star general. This needs to change. If a private has an especially great ability in slaughter or the management of slaughter, he or she should be allowed to go to officer school to move up the ranks to fullfill his her ability. The German army which was one of the great slaughter machines allowed everyone to advance based on ability. Why, in a republic, do we have a class division in the field of war? This needs to change. We also need to mandate that all military personnel be decommisioned before they are let lose in society. The military brainwashes the soldier, takes his will away and then sends him back into a society that thrives on free will and self direction. The disparity needs to be addressed. Realize that there is this heroic vision of military service with military guys in starched uniforms showing great valor. There is also this idea that a career in the military is represented as a noble thing. This might be true of officers, but if your in the lower echalons of the military it is a dehumanizing experience. Cannon fodder comes from some reality.
6. The environment is a mirror of the human condition. It is truely the Garden of Eden. But that is changing quickly. A parking lot is a singular expression of man's singular need to park a car. How is that an expression of the Garden of Eden? A parking lot has one purpose, to lay flat and provide space for cars day and night and into time forever. This is absolutely contrary to nature, which hates a vacuum. Everything in nature has multiple purposes interlocked in a constellation of causes and effects. Man has chosen the single purpose/ single outcome method, a completely inefficient use of energy and nature. We are implementing drug regimes that use the same method, one drug as the silver bullet for one illness. That is supposed to solve one problem, ignoring the side effects and constellation of problems this system creates. Man is out of step with the nature of the universe. and probable some God like nature. Realize God is everything, the thing we see as evil and good are part of this. It is our duty to understand our purpose and how we fit into this universe. Is our purpose to accumulate paper wealth, to war over each other, to live in bigger and bigger houses. Hmmm what is our purpose?

What suprised me most was how little people knew about the war even with all the coverage that has been given. No one new about Shock and Awe http://www.defensegroupinc.com/war_rdpaper.cfm "you get rid of their power, water. In two, three, four, five days, they are physically, emotionally and psychologically exhausted”, Harlan Ullman told CBS reporter David Martin. Everyone supporting the President said i was making this shock and awe stuff up and this was America we don't do that. When i told who ever i talked to that about %25 of the Americans going to Iraq where civilians no one knew that either. When i got home i listened to a story on NPR confirming this very thing. They also had a very informative piece on how private contractors had trained the Bosnian army and had also bought sex slaves and set up a prostitution business. They were fired but no legal action was taken because the were civilians . . . .More next week i gotta go to bed. OH check out this link lhttp://www.mpri.com/channels/about.html
