Made in His Image

   We are one people, all descendants to the beginning and the first. Tied as it were, to a common base. In the world there are separations, all I might ad, of our own making. But here there are none. Where is here? I speak of the here and now. Because what now is, has been before. Solomon tells us that there is nothing new under the sun, and he's right. As a point of reference, consider wherever you are as you first read this, and to whoever is reading it, for you, your current time is now. But now seems all wrong, surely a change is in order. New and improved may sometimes be one, but not true of both. You're sitting with a salesman, and he says, This is a one time offer, things of that ilk. How ever you interpret what is happening outside your bubbles, however you read whatever is functioning, it has happened before to civilizations we now call ancient. 

  Vanity, all is vanity. There IS nothing new under the sun. 

  Been shopping brain enhancement pills lately, been looking for truth and wisdom, an escape from the maddening throngs? Might I insert a suggestion in your life? I have no pills to hawk, but there is a place for such things. Find yourself a bible, open it to the book of Ecclesiastes, and read it. 

If you really want Honest elections

 Neither side is satisfied in their government representatives. Left and right, we have all been promised what most politicians never deliver. Once they have reached the office that they campaigned for, promises made are usually quickly forgotten. Tired of that? You should be. Common sense tells us that politics was never planned to be a career, but as a short service to the nation. The truth may sound cruel, but we as a nation have reached the point where an election can be bought. Solution? The most obvious is we the people insist on Term Limits. In this time when million plus people are a dime a dozen bunch, it is the billionaires only, who are looked upon as rich. As of this moment in time, we haven't had our first trillion dollar baby yet. In that way, the Trillion dollar mark is sacrosanct. And yet, we now talk openly about spending trillions of dollars on one pork laden bill after another. New laws made up of thousands of pages are passed without knowing what they say as it is a long boring read. We are told by fools, that we should first pass the bill, and then try to understand it latter. 

  We are already well over 30 trillion dollars in debt, and yet the once relatively sane Democratic party has gone from the old days of tax and spend, to where bills nearing the trillion dollar cost are now routinely passed. Each one adding to our spiraling costs for running this huge monster, that the federal government has become. If they keep just printing more paper money, eventually, we'll all have some really fancy wall paper in our bathrooms. Don't look for it, because common sense has long since left the building. The solution? 

  Rather than lay out the whole plan, let's just cut to the chase.' and get to the more concise solution. A highly controlled list of presidential wanna-be candidates gets whittled down within a two year procedure until finally, two or three qualified candidates emerge.  It is generally agreed that to win the presidency will cost about a billion dollars. That kind of cash usually come from special interests groups or so called, Political foundations, usually tax free. That kind of money just breeds corruption. With this new plan, each final candidate will get 100 million dollars each for their campaigns, courtesy of, We the people, the tax payers. Any candidate who spends one nickel more, is reason for immediate dismissal from the field. Reaction? Instead of a ton of silly nemes, posters, and blatant lies, to get the most bang for the buck, surely the candidates will use openly televised debates. Final reaction? The new president will work for the people in general, rather than for the privileged few.         

Rethink This

   The paradox is that this fascination for the so called A. I. machines, is misplaced at best. So much hope and curiosity about this is most probably world wide. Can a machine be smarter than men? in a word, NO. The idea that a machine designed by a team of designers, assemblers, and so on, could ever be smarter than the people who designed it, is not logical in any sense. Now, think to yourself whether you think you are as smart or smarter than these machines. Don't sell yourself short, remember it's a machine against life. C'mon, that isn't even worth your consideration. 

  In fact all you tech worshipers, think for a minute, A. I. is proof positive that intelligent design is undeniable. Whatever emerges as the next super computer, or whatever, could never have existed, if not for the minds of living breathing human beings. 

 The point? Imagine if you can, the odds against this machine, in essence, coming together on it's own, given enough time. All the diodes wires and do dads necessary for the complete machine are laying in a pile. Do you believe that given a trillion years that it would assemble itself? 

  Remember now, we have been talking about machines. Now, compare that to life. If you are still holding onto the primordial soup theory, You might just wanna rethink that.
