Let us suppose our souls, some part of our consciousness, survives death, as many have reported, and for which considerable empirical evidence exists.
What is the effect of spending your life playing video games? Kids who start at 3-4, and wind up playing 8-10 hours a day for years on end?
I think I met the spirit of one of these kids last night, and they are insane. They are monsters. They have lost all their human traits. They can’t tell the difference between fantasy and reality in any realm. They are not quite human, and not quite animal. Most of all, they are confused, when it comes to the matter of inner truth. They have spent no time in introspection, no time in silence, no time in quiet, receptive listening. They are ill equipped to die, but die some of them undoubtedly do, in car accidents, cancer, suicide and all the other travails all of us are subjected to.
This world is insane, more than it used to be, perhaps. Every piece of information any sane intelligent person could need to make informed decisions, and to form accurate perceptions is out there. In abundance. Nothing is lacking. Closely held secrets from ages past are being shouted from the rooftops, and I think Revelations said it would be.
But without open ears, an agile mind, and a receptive, heart, it is all waste.
Returning to Robert Mueller, I don’t know who he thinks he is, but whatever that self image is, I am completely convinced it is inaccurate to the point of farce. I seriously doubt he sees himself as what he is–a political tool for corrupt elites. No doubt the word justice crops up in his mind, and something like diligence and thoroughness.
If I had to take a guess, I think he in political sympathy with James Comey, who has also been a lifelong Democrat, and emotionally I think he sees this as a dick measuring contest which he intends to win, by hook or by crook, so help him God. There’s an oath for you.
I don’t know how the center holds in the face of such determined lunacy. I really don’t. And for that matter, by and large the center HAS broken. You have the Left, and you have the rest of us. This blog was created to help foster moderation, but it is hard to see how that is even possible any more.
