Mick:

The THEY that I referred to in my post, are the assholes that have seized control of this world through greed and avarice. Being a MILLIONAIRE is not enough, neither is becoming a BILLIONAIRE. These greedy pricks want it all, and they have plans to reduce the population by as much as 90%.

That is what all these "mysterious illnesses" are all about, such as AIDS, SARS, and more to come in the near future. Before you go and say that you do not believe this, please understand that I have the reports where this is stated in bold and blunt terms.

Also, my own personal experience with "the other side" has proven that the entity which most of us refer to as GOD is truly a field of energy --- energy which permeates all living beings. This is why I said that we have more in COMMON, than we do that seperates us.

The COMMON BONDS we all share are much stronger than the artificially-created differences that are shoved down our throats.

However, a complete lack of enemies is not profitable for the military-industrial complex --- this is why over and over again, the community mindset of humans is continually manipulated to set one group up off against another group. This is the classic DIVIDE AND CONQUER routine, which people keep falling for time after time.

All enemies of the USA were at one time, friends.

All friends of the USA will one day be, enemies.

This includes all of the following, and many more that I don't have time to list here:

Iraq and Saddam Hussein, Iran, Russia, Al-Qaeda and the deceased OSAMA BU$H-LADEN, and all world-wide terrorist organizations, which are funded by and through the constant use of the Hegelian Dialectic, which has been popularized as PROBLEM-REACTION-SOLUTION.

The key aspects of PROBLEM-REACTION-SOLUTION is that the government gets people to agree to things that they never would agree to under NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES. The most recent example of this is the World Trade Center disaster, which featured complicity between the White House, the military, and even NORAD, whose commanders ordered all fighter jets to STAND-DOWN for a period of 24 hours --- from 12:01am on 9/11/2001 to 11:59pm on that same day.

Good people --- just like the ones who assemble here, are manipulated through the media to possess opinions of the world that benefit our keepers and no one else.

As to your "above and below" comment --- I did not experience the OTHER SIDE and the CREATOR-ENERGY as exhibiting these qualities. We are ALL ONE, and without the FEAR MACHINE pumping out distress into our living rooms every day, there most likely would be WORLD PEACE.

In 1999, there was an excellent book released on this very topic --- THE CULTURE OF FEAR by Barry Glassner. This book discusses how the TV is used to whip up fear on a continious basis through careful and consistent manipulation of the kinds of stories that appear on the news every day.

Mick, if you are truly interested in this subject, I would recommend this book. It is in paperback, and it can be had for a reasonable price. Or it can be borrowed from the library, if you have a card.

Your question of how I reconcile the religion I was brought up to believe in, with all I have learned along my spiritual journey --- let me tell you that I believe in that which I experienced personally, and all matters of FAITH, I will leave to those who feel they need the organized structure of one of the many religious institutions on this planet.

The TRUTH behind all the BULLSHIT is that there are only two UNIVERSAL LANGUAGES --- mathematics and love.

LOVE is infinite and never-ending, just as is our life-energy, which we refer to as our SOUL. Just as the scientific principles of THERMODYNAMICS state --- it is impossible to consume energy, as it is only morphed into another kind of energy, and not consumed.

This is conveniently forgotten once a loved-one passes over to the other side.

I hope this answers your question . . .

Peace and Prayers,
