a "Pathway" out of HELL??

"From Conquistadors to Neo-Cons"

The past 515 years on this "Blue Planet" have been years of un-mitigated "Hell" for most of its Non-Whites; while some form of "Golden Age" has evolved for the Whites! "Terror", we have learned, can be detected in the womb; and, as DeTocqueville noted, "Black" fetuses, born into our most brutal slavery known to Man-kind, were those most subjected to a lifetime of "Terror". The farther from pure white skin the fetus is , the greater the Terror. Neo-Cons in 2015, banging their drums for World War III, are in attack-mode, against the world's "ruling" Nations (Security Council States) (+"1"), for seeking a NEW PATH ahead!! Neo-Cons, and Netanyahu, will be satisfied only when NO POSSIBLE path exists!!

Christian Religions (those direct from Rome, for sure) believe there are "Levels" for Perdition.

Neo-Cons, evidently, believe "We're Not 'There', Yet"! They want to plunge on into the Heart of Darkness. The Gates were flung open for this Path we're on, by Ronald Reagan, who inherited the handi-work of LBJ and Tricky Dick Nixon. (Nixon did us all the favor of "packaging" the Races into 5 neat Boxes, to make our Census Count easier.) The path has led to 9/11 and the attack against Iraq.

Reagan, opening the doors, diplomatically, to the Vatican; for the first time in our History, also brought us the "Wars against Liberation Theology" in Latin America. Religion and Politics joined, there, in Warfare; more-so than ever before in the 20th Century. Religious Warfare has been spreading and getting more butal, ever since. "Sane" People want a different, more peaceful, path for the future of our children. Those among us who are pathologically fearful cannot be convinced of the need for a new path.

An old joke, told by Moms Mabley, in the 50s, featured two convicts on Death Row in the United States: one Black, the other White. As the hour of death approached for the White one, he "freaked out". The Black one told him to "hitch up his pants, and take-it-like-a-man"!! The White's Reply: "That's Easy, for you; 'you-all' are Used To It"!! The "Terror" of killer Cops, and similar, institutionalized, methods for spreading Fear for Political Purposes, are still useful for the Hard Right; and, they have been spreading that Terror, for Centuries! No One gets "Used To That"!!

Stay Vigilant! Watch to see who votes in Congress, to keep this Search for a Sane Future; and who votes for their beloved Armageddon! Sykes-Picot; the "carve-up" of Africa; Discrimination of many types; are all "bubbling-up", like old corks, under the influence of the Internet!

Have We Forgotten?? ISRAEL is a FOREIGN COUNTRY!!

The "America" of 1945 would NOT TOLERATE This!!

I know of no other Country that would tolerate these brazen attacks and "corruption" of its Institutions, such as we've witnessed over the past 6 years! We knew, in 1945, what PROPAGANDA IS! We DON'T. today! Interference in our Presidential Election processes; corruption of a major Political Party, brazen, daily, attacks on the President, from within our own MEDIA! Citizens of other countries must wonder what "Possesses" Us, to put up with such CRAP!

Having already precipitated un-totalled losses, in both human lives and National Treasure, we leave our defenses down, allowing a supposed "Ally" to ravage us and our Institutions for no apparent GOOD; either for Israel, or for the Planet!

Our corrupted Judicial System has opened the flood gates to permit foreign money to pollute our Politics. We can see the damage, as our President struggles to shape our Foreign Policy; and to repair damages that have thus far mounted since Cheney and Bush were mesmerized into attacking Iraq. Conditions in the Middle East have only grown worse as a result; while we struggle, alone, with the economic damages. We know where this madness is coming from. Why can't we STOP it?

Is it because prominent members of our Media are willing Agents?

Stay Vigilant! Could you IMAGINE a Foreign Minister of Friend (Britain), or Foe (North Korea) getting away with what we permit Netanyahu to do to us? So far, only ONE member of our Congress has publically declared: "He doesn't speak for me!" Netanyahu is proven wrong in his "scare tactics"; and will NOT engage constructively with his Allies or his Enemies!

"Plowshares" for WATER??

We Can't DRINK Oil, (ya' know...)

I remember back, almost 50 years, when I was conducting Nuclear Ungerground Tests, a Program called "Plowshares" that proposed using nuclear devices for peaceful purposes. https://www.osti.gov/opennet/reports/plowshar.pdf

The rain water and snow-melt we used to get in California has "shifted" far to the East! We're running out of water for crops, and could run out of clean water for drinking, if this keeps up! (Takes about 3 days for a human to DIE from lack of water).

With peaceful use of nuclear detonations, we might be able to put the water back?? Pipelines for OIL haven't made much sense, If you factor in polluting our dwindling sources of drinking water; well, you get the picture. If you want to build a nationwide pipeline for shipping WATER to where it is needed to sustain LIFE; well, that's more sensible? If the early Roman Emporers were known for putting drinking water at convenient locations (for FREE) inside their Cities, and Public Baths, why can't we?

East of the Mississippi, we're drowning: with too much water. West of the Mississippi, we'r running the risk of losing food crops in places like Texas, California, and, slowly, the the Ogalalla Bread-basket Region. Perhaps its time to think about something other than WAR, and use our technology to sustain LIFE: just THINK ABOUY THAT! A large collection reservoir somewhere in the northern Mississippi River that pipes water, as needed, to Texas, and to the Colorado River, or, all the way to California! Perhaps another in the Tenessee Valley, or, on the OHIO River? It would take Nukes, modified for peaceful construction projects, to make something like that affordable? We would have to keep the Blood-Suckers out of the Project, though! We were able to pull off the Interstate Highway Program with Public Money; but, as I remember, people were more honest, then!!

Stay Vigilant! Do we have to be clearly "on the ropes" ;before we STOP considering, seriously, these clowns currently vying to run to replace President Obama?

BLACK GIRLs "ROCK"??

Will this put an END to "Mommie-Babies"??

Finally! BET is leaning away from the "sexual" and toward the "intellectual", in their programming for young, Black Females! Long, a pet peeve of mine, their prior programming "stunk" of the old tradition of emphasizing the "sexual" over all else -- a behavior, little changed since the days of chattel slavery. A burden borne by all women of color for hundreds of years, this change signifies a REAL step away from the "many miseries" that impact all persons of color in Christian Cultures!

http://www.bet.com/shows/black-girls-rock.html?cid=mktggoog_bgr15

From the early days of his experiences as a slave, Frederick Douglass wrote about the "yard" where slave young, below the age of 12, ran loose, like chickens, covered only by some crude drop cloth, and without shoes. They were overseen by some old Black Woman, too weak to do other work. That was "Christian Up-bringing" for non-white slaves, at that time.. "Fast forward" -- to 2015! The miserable conditions for today's children extend far beyond the age of 12; and; today's children have less protection than that provided by those old Slave Women! In those days, the "value" of the children was, both, recognized, and protected!! Today, it is NOT!

If you look closely at Media Images of non-white females today, the "Sexual" aspects are prominent. The "intellectual" aspects are ignored. That can be "understood" in terms of values internalized within all cultures, over the hundreds of years that Christians have controlled every aspect of mass thinking. Hopefully, this is beginning to change??

To any extent that it does, the impact, from schools to jails, from Media to Organized Sports; will be REVOLUTIONARY! No one can deny that Organized Sports depend directly on the steady supply of "Mommie-Babies" produced throughout the Americas, for its Existence, and its Obscene Riches. Those riches (for the few, and mostly-white, recipients) come at a TREMENDOUS price; for Non-White Communities, like Ferguson, MO., and for our big-city ghettos, nationwide! The Favelas of Brazil and similar "under-developed regions of Africa, also come to mind.

Stay Vigilant! It will be the WOMEN, who run the Churches, and are the "keepers" of Religions, and Cultures. who must become the Agents of Change!

"white" CHRISTIANITY "On-Trial"??

"Church" as FORTRESS??

Bishop Richard Allen, (1760-1831), grew tired of the Segregation, and degrading treatment blacks received within the few white churches that deigned to "minister", at that time, to anyone who was not white; founded the first independent black denomination in the United States, in 1794. In 1964, 170 years later, Martin Luther King observed that 11:00 a.m. on Sunday Morning, is the "most segregated hour" in the Nation. The variety of laws, rules, and regulations, invented by whites to keep non-whites excluded, from their Faith, has been accompanied with infusion of color racism into the other U. S. Institutions that are controlled by whites. Republicans are engaged in furious machinations to keep racism embedded in our Politics.

Fast-Forwad to 2015, 100 years after Hollywood lead our Media down this road of degrading and excluding Blacks from the Human Race, in the movie: Birth of a Nation; and we find our modern high-tech televised MEDIA, divided along the Color Line. FOX is the home-region Media for hard-bitten white supremacist viewers; while CNN has grafted some non-white faces onto their highly-scripted coverage, and began favoring Israel. The rest of our Media is deeply wedded to the tradition of keeping our Media "white"! EXCEPT for Alajerra America; it, alone, seems to konw that the "numbers" and Time are not on the side of our MEDIA and its "color-line-Reporting. Our knowledge of what is happeining in the world is badly skewed as a result! Our Meida is where politicians go to "bash" President Obama. Our "dysfunctional" governing is rooted in racial Media bias. Young Politicians, from Rubio to Cruz, are "cutting their teeth" on ways to play the color line.

In a "Christian" Nation, (as Republicans proudly proclaim); old, "Christian" practices need to be scrutinized very carefully, before Time runs out, and non-whites turn away completely!! It is very easy for our politicians to orchestrate "mob-thought" and actions!

Stay Vigilant! EVERYTHING; from issues like Zimmerman and Killer Cops, to matters of War and Peace, and to "profiling" are impacted negatively! At a time when religiously-driven violence is growing around the world; close contemplation of how we must change our beliefs and practices, is paramount!

Will the "Uncle Tom FIX" "work" ON GAYs??

Civil War - Redux??

J. C. Furnas, in Goodbye To Uncle Tom, 1956, wrote:

"Uncle Tom's Cabin took this dynamic situation" (controversy over the Compromise of 1850), "and furthered the distortion which white culture had already made. It thereby placed itself squarely in the mainstream of idealistic American reform. and appealed to the destructive falsification inherent in that reform: attack the crime, appease and feed conscience, and abstract the victim into a new level of degradation" ... (italics added).

From: American Values In Black And White A Study Of Conflicts In Cultural Values and Their Implications for the Public Administrator, Williams, Univ. of New Mexico, 1972.

This technique, or FIX, is what got this nation past the conflict known as our Civil War. Blacks were never accorded the status of "human being", but their chains were removed. Some Black Males were armed, and permitted to serve in the Armed Forces. In the 1960s, because, in part, of the record of service under arms, principally, the FIX was revisisted. That Reform provided Civil Rights, but not Human Rights! Slavery of Blacks marched on, re-named Jim Crow,, without having to be bothered by chains. The Jail Industry and other racist Industries and Institutions flourished under these "Reforms". Perhaps our most racist Industry; Real Estate, is busy today "flipping" our Cities from Black to White (called "Gentrification")!

Now its the turn for Gays. Their "similar" FIX, will NOT even provide Civil Rights! Our Wicked White Right hopes the voting public of 2015 is too stupid to see this! The Bushes are the "architects" (and ultimate beneficiaries?) of this "technique". It is being re-fashioned to apply for all non-whites and Gays by today's crypto-fascist Right.

Unlike Blacks, Gays are not as confused by Christianity; not enough to "swallow" the "short-change" in this FIX. Gays are represented by BIG MONEY, Efffective Organization, and victims with white skins.

Is The WHITE Right "caught"?? In 2000, Cheney/Bush engineered a "split" between "Hispanics" (code for Mexicans) and Blacks, that worked for a while, for the Repoobs. In 2015, Repoobs, find that their 'Base' -- Texans, especially -- hate "Mexicans", and wish to replace them with those Cuban "Latinos" who eascaped their blacker brethren when they fled to Florida. They even moved a Cuban (Cruz) to Texas!

Stay Vigilant! Stay awake long enough to figure out the "hand job" we're being given by the Malignant Right as they attempt to "slide" past this current controversy, both in Indiana and Arkansas. All candidates, except for Cruz are "flipping" their positions.

"...a suspicion would follow that we ourselves are not Christians."

Montesquieu: Spirit of Laws, 1748

Our Founders, followed, like a "blueprint", the writings of Montesquieu, as they designed our Constitution, and our Government. The passage quoted in the title of this BLOG, follows from:

"These creatures are all over black, and with such a flat nose, that they can scarcely be pitied.

...It is harldy to be believed that God, who is is a wise Being, should place a soul, especially a good soul, in such a black ugly body.

...It is impossible for us to suppose these creatures to be men, because, allowing them to be men, a suspicion would follow that we ourselves are not Christians."

In 2015, after all that has gone before, from Civil War to Civil Rights, we can safely say that THEY, and their progeny, were/are NOT Christians! At least they are not the "chosen" of REAL Christians. Many have known, and most have suspected that Rome changed the color of Jesus and the meaning of Christianity; 1500 years ago! What we have is a "Religion" that has provided aid, comfort, and "safe haven" for practices, among the most heinous Evils of written History! Those who are most ignorant, craven, or conniving, among us, are strongest adherents to these PRACTICES pursued in the name of the Roman Version of Christianity. Too many non-whites believe, deep in their "bones", what Montesquieu wrote about them.

Stay Vigilant! On this All Fools Day, in the Easter Season, of the Year of the "SHEEP"; we might ALL reflect upon this?? Must we all perish before we realize that those who "Conqueror" in the name of Religion will never stop on their own? People who abhor WAR and what WAR Does, must stop them!
