Greetings good citizen, tangential to yesterday's offering we back up our exploration of 'good' with a cursory examination of 'interests'.
Again, these are all over the map and you can only wonder 'why'? Why aren't people focused on 'what's important'?
If you're older than your typical college grad you already know the answer...what's 'important' to YOU isn't necessarily setting the guy beside you hair on fire.
Just how it goes.
Funny how 'important' isn't the same for everyone EXCEPT in the 'broadest of terms'.
While a surprisingly large number of people would merely shrug over the prospects of a nuclear war (those would be the ones where 'death personal' would solve a LOT of their 'man-made' problems) Unsurprisingly, announcing We launch in five minutes might even elicit a cheer..followed by the in earnest question 'do you know where it's gonna hit, I gotta get out there!'
This (and our goof-ball, 'profit driven' media) doing 'whatever it takes' to drive advertising revenue to new highs! How many of you, er, 'remember' media is advertising driven? The 'News' exists to advertise crap...and boy is a lot of it 'crap'!
Now [and you know it would happen] What commercial will they play during the 'final moments' of our civilization? Wanna bet it will be one for some insurance company?
Can't make this shit up good citizen!
People 'seem to' come together over 'safety issues' like exploding cars of unsafe passenger planes...but you don't give a crap about exploding cars if you don't drive and defective aircraft if you never fly...again, just how it goes.
Is there ONE THING we all 'agree on'?
You'd think the answer might be 'Spirit in the Sky'. Just about everybody at least has an opinion about the creator, don't they?
NOPE.
[Is it beginning to look like the people who cast us out and marooned us here were justified in their reasoning?]
{They have the 'stupid marker', there is no hope...}
But I digress...and I am obliged to cross the line and 'tell you' what you should care about. Unlike the advertising driven media, I won't insist you believe me...that remains for you to decide.
You should care/be 'interested in' Equality because Justice flows from Equality. No mystery that karma is all about 'equilibrium and balance'.
An 'imbalanced world' is a world of conflict. If you want peace (from which all prosperity/'good' flows) you must first achieve Equality.
Then you must avoid 'exploitation' (in both directions) neither exploit nor allow yourself to be exploited. [So basic it should be a law!]
I (once again) reiterate that I have zero truck with 'Spirit in the Sky' and this isn't 'airy-fairy, feel good, hocus pocus' bullshit.
It all starts with Harmony...and extends outward. One people, one purpose, one world.
Can I get an 'Ommmmm'?
Because the idea isn't 'new'.
Kinda ironic that Eastern mysticism started to rise around the same time Gordon Gecko stepped up to the pulpit and declared 'greed is good'.
Don't take a 'rocket scientist' to see which 'philosophy' won...it also don't take a genius to figure out who 'lost'...[the answer is YOU!]
Most people aren't interested in 'balance' or equilibrium but that's what you 'should be' interested in.
Round and round, good citizen, what comes around goes around.
I once again apologize for breaking the 'telling you what to think' rule but I: A.) admit I'm doing it and B.) leave the choice up to you.
UNDERSTAND, People WILL 'rally around the bandwagon' and if I were to preach that all would be well if we threw our poop at life's bullshit artists, there would be people out there throwing their poop at political rallys!
[In yet another 'mystery' regarding just how closely related to simians we are, it has never ONCE struck me as a 'good idea' to even handle my own poop never mind throw it at anyone! Just a little something to ponder when some meathead starts blaming your behavior on your 'lizard brain'. We Todd Did.]
Thanks for letting me inside your head,

Okay, who threw the poop?
