Zeitgeist ( Part Three )

“ I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality ” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr Once we understand that the integrity of our personal existences are completely dependant on the integrity of everything else in our world then we will have truly understood the meaning of unconditional love, for seeing everything as you and you as everything can have no conditionality. Every human being is born naked, needing warmth, food, water, shelter. Therefore the most important issue at hand is the intelligent management of the Earths resources this can never be accomplished in a monetary system or where the pursuit of profit is the pursuit of self-interest. All the natural resources on the planet are a common heritage to all people; we are one, it is up to you as one, to realise this. The future, and the future of your children and this planet depend on you. Money and religion are what divide us, one from another, when being one to another would make us happier than we could ever imagine. The concept of our unity to life as eternal beings has been ripped out of us by religions of death, which promise an afterlife. When life itself, in every day terms, present and very real is of the most paramount importance. This capitalistic society fulfils our fear of death by our need for life. It sells us our lives to give us an illusion of our lives having meant something. The truth is, if you truly believed in God, what possible use to you would money be. Money is in fact our own denial, and our own proof that none of us believe in any attested to Divine power such as God. And the two systems of Religion and Capitalism are inseparable; they are both self-supporting of each other. We have sold ourselves as slaves to them both.

I don't agree with this "this can never be accomplished in a monetary system or where the pursuit of profit is the pursuit of self-interest" You make it profitable to do good, and they'll do it. ...The Greening of America/and 1984...should be must reads for every highschool student. It's all happened and is happening as we speak. Light & Love

One line sums up this excellent series so well: "If you truly believed in God, what possible use to you would money be?" You and I think along the same lines in this regard, Colin. I enjoyed reading this series! Love, Carolyn
