The Nectar of the Gods.

The Sa of the Egyptians.

The Divine Ambrosia.

The Wine of Immortality.

The Water of Life.

The Water of Aquarius.

All these things are One.

And that is:

Love.

The Millennials' Dream.

Many people say that the political activism of the Millennials (born 1996 - 2010) resembles that of the Baby-Boomers of the 1960s.

This may be true.

But unless the Millennials learn from the experience of the Baby-Boomers they are destined to the same fate.

The Baby-Boomers were betrayed by their rock stars into lives of drugs and degradation.

Sex and drugs and rock and roll derives from Satanism in the music industry.

The rock legends of the 1960s practised Satanism as taught by black magician Aleister Crowley.

And make no mistake this is still happening today.

So my advice to the Millennials is that they not allow rock stars to hijack their dreams.

Stick with integrity and courage and beware of wolves in sheep's clothing.

Fear of the Enemy.

The Germans have a word - schandenfreude - which means rejoicing in the misfortune of others.

At first this seems an evil thing.

But at the root of it is fear of the enemy.

Fear that they will ruin our efforts to save the world, to establish God's reign on Earth.

And this can incite people to kill.

So pray for your enemies.

Pray that they overcome their fears.

And rejoice in the Love of God.

Prayer.

Why does God answer some prayers and not others?

The answer to this age old question may lie in what we are expecting when we pray.

If we are expecting God to grant us everything that we ask for we will be sorely disappointed.

But sometimes our prayers seem to be answered and other times they do not.

It is possible that in the latter case God is doing something that we cannot see.

Or He may be waiting for a more propitious time and place.

But our prayers are never wasted.

If only to tune us in with God's benevolence.

Prayers from the heart center us in our soul.

They establish us in our real selves.

And our sincerity registers with God.

So continue to pray with a pure heart.

  

God will listen.

Family of Humanity.

Children should be taught that not just their siblings but everyone is their brother or sister.

God is our Father.

 

And everyone is His Child.

We live in a Family of Humanity.

The Center of the Universe.

If God is at the center of the Universe.

And if the center of the Universe is everywhere.

Then God is everywhere.

Soft.

Contrary to popular opinion hardness is not a sign of strength but a sign of weakness.

Hardness is the result of fear.

And fear is a sign of weakness.

Truly strong people are fearless and their hearts are soft.

They are not afraid to appear vulnerable.

And they are not afraid to show love.

Their attitudes are tolerant.

And their outlook is benevolent.

But most of all their hearts are soft.

And they give love.

Good.

The world has gone Bad.

Not only do rock stars, sportsmen, and celebrities sell their souls but corporate plutocrats and media moguls conspire with them to enslave humanity.

And all is shrouded in darkness.

They love the darkness for their deeds are evil.

And the backwards magic of Satanism whitewashes their image.

So that evil is perceived as good and good as evil.

So don't look for the good among rock stars and celebrities.

Those who are truly good are humble.

 

They are ordinary people like you and me.

Not superstars or sports heroes or billionaires or wannabes.

A Clear Choice.

The right-wing political campaign is based on:

Lies, hate, prejudice, stereotypes, and fear.

The left-wing political campaign is based on:

Hope, love, justice, enlightenment, and truth.

There is a clear choice!

A Happy Workforce.

The problem with the world now is that there is too much enmity between employers and employees.

Employers oppress their workers.

They have forced wages down and workers have lost conditions.

Work is temporary, casual, and insecure.

This results in an unhappy workforce.

But the main problem is understaffing.

Overworked staff make mistakes.

And every time someone makes a mistake you are losing half the time because they have to do it again.

So, if you staff your job properly, you are in fact increasing productivity and you can afford to pay your workers properly.

A happy workforce is more productive.

So workers should have holiday pay and sick pay.

They should be paid overtime.

And their employment should be secure.

They should not be expected to study unnecessarily.

Nor should they be expected to reapply for their own jobs.

This would result in a happier workforce.

And productivity would increase.

Gays and Lesbians.

"Sing, O barren one who did not bear, burst into song and shout, you who have not been in labor!

For the children of the desolate woman will be more than the children of her who is married, says the  Lord."  Isaiah 54:1 (NRSV)

"For your Maker is you husband, the Lord of hosts is his name." Isaiah 54:5 (NRSV)

"For thus says the Lord: To the eunuchs who keep my sabbaths, who choose the things that please me and hold fast my covenant,

I will give, in my house and within my walls, a monument and a name better than sons and daughters:

I will give them an everlasting name that shall not be cut off."  Isaiah 56:4.5 (NRSV)   

In these enigmatic passages from Isaiah God is addressing those who do not marry - the barren woman and the eunuch.

The word eunuch was used to refer to any male who did not marry.

So here God is pledging His promise to gays and lesbians.

Far from being banned from God's House they form a special relationship with God Himself.

Like the Berdache of the American Indians homosexuals have a spiritual function.

Their children are God's children - the whole of humanity.

And their husband is God Himself.

Gay Hate.

The right-wing political machine has a scapegoat.

Homosexuals are portrayed as evil agents hell bent on destroying society.

This is fed by the fear and hatred of the Religious Right and Generation X.

And we get little support.

"I'm not gay so why should I care?"

You would do well to listen to the words of Martin Niemoller's poem "First they came for the Communists".

It resonates with society today.

Only evil can come from hate.

And there is evil in our world today.

Hate is contagious.

So don't entertain any words or images of gay hate.

Even if you're not gay.

Otherwise you are condoning evil in our world.
