The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing. John F. Kennedy? Continued:

I wont rehash what I wrote about the meat industry and the drug companies letting new born’s die of dehydration and starvation. It is in the previous blog.

I was in Animal Liberation & Green Peace in the 1970’s and Trees for Life a decade or so later. Sadly these organisations have become impotent bureaucracies, achieving nothing.

Not their fault.

The multinationals have the power: and control our “culture”. The chances of beating them seems  Buckley’s or none!

But people who actually care about animals can boycott companies that mistreat them.

ag00209_

I will be listing the cosmetic and other companies that test on animals.

ag00208_

With the meat industry: I am not telling people to go vegan: but that would be great 😀

If you wish to eat meat ask for free range.

AG00205_  AG00211_

If possible don’t support the drug companies.

Find a good naturopath that is skilled in Chinese medicine.

And or go herbal.

Now if there was such a thing as karma — or “what goes around comes around” the people that own or work for these multinationals would be being tortured to death as  I type!

 

The following companies still test on animals! This is for Australia. You can Google for your own country if you do not live Down Under.

If you care; do not support these companies. This is a suggestion. I don’t tell people what to do even and especially when I am doing a clairvoyant reading.

And now for my E book ad—

Thinking of asking someone like Joss Whedon to make it a movie— (I’m joking)  😛

In primary school the class was asked to write an essay entitled “My Wish”

I wrote that I wished people would care more about looking after nature and the planet than money.

Seeing that this is never going to happen in my life time or possibly ever!

No Wonder I am Anthrophobic

romans go home

 

Now if you had done Latin at school as I did – And as the Monty Python crew did   😛

You could break the word down etymologically: Still you can google it.     😀

I have written a blog similar to this several times and deleted it. Knowing that people just don’t want to know:

But today I don’t give f-ck! Decided to have a whinge.

Despite having more than six decades of abuse; starting when I was a baby: And several major traumas, each of which would have caused PTSD on their own: All undiagnosed in my day: I had a “PollyAnna” outlook on life for approximately half a century.

But now I am so disillusioned with the human race: for their attitude to the planet: other life forms and one another!

I just don’t bother with people who make me feel uncomfortable:

pollyanna

A  young lady that I met suggested that I was an empath and told me to Google same: But I don’t have to be an empath to know when I am being treated with contempt.

My Dad used to say – that only the lower echelons treat people with contempt: they are trying to make themselves seem important.

James Redfield (Celestine Prophecy) called them control dramas: And I have called them “power trips at someone else’s expense.”

I am so pleased that I don’t fit in:

image002

To fit in one must be a mindless automaton:

To be successful, a sociopath and a narcissist:

This is of course a broad generalization and my personal opinion.

I do know some genuinely caring people and have true friends:

A friend, now deceased, used to say “There are always the good; the bad and the indifferent.”

 

Off on a slight tangent:

I am reading “Lion” by Saroo Brierley at the moment: His (adoptive) parents are an example of how I think humans should be.

Saroo’s time in Calcutta as a child was horrifying!

Quoting from Sarros’ book – page 45 “I was horrified to see two dead people lying among the piles of rubbish, one with his throat cut, and the other with his ears chopped off. I’d seen dead bodies before, when people had died at home and others saw that they were treated respectfully. But I hadn’t come across any just lying outside. Here, no-one seemed to pay any more attention to dead people than to dead animals, even if they seemed to have been violently attacked. These bodies lay in the open, under a hot sun, covered with flies and- it appeared – gnawed by rats.”

 

When writing, one is supposed to have a conclusion:  so decided the following was my conclusion?

There seems no rhyme or reason for human existence – We are probably not indigenous to the planet ?

The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good men Do Nothing—JFK?

This is actually my last blog re posted and changed a wee bit!

I changed the title because the last title seemed in appropriate

At a recent podiatrist appointment: someone I have never met before:

We had the most interesting conversation: hence this blog.

He said he thought that humans were alien to this planet.

I have thought for approximately two decades that we were genetically engineered by E T ‘s : I am joking 😛

He was telling me about a tribe in Africa that spoke to and thanked the animal they were about to kill and I discussed my disgust of our meat industry.

I became a vegetarian in the 1970’s and joined Animal Liberation I would have liked to have stopped eating meat as a child after I found out where meat came from: But the person who gave birth to me bashed me when I refused to eat meat: served the same meal to me for breakfast lunch and tea until I ate it and threatened to have me put in a mental institution for caring about livestock: Something that was quite possible in those days. People were certified insane when families wanted them out of the way!

The husband of one of my staff in 1982 asked me to report that suckie  calves were left to die of dehydration and starvation.

The person that I spoke to at the RSPCA called me a liar and a trouble maker: I put something in writing and was ignored: Over the years I have heard many horror stories about the RSPCA

This still happens!  I have been informed by people that either work at the abattoirs or visit same that all newborns are left to die of dehydration and starvation. Someone that worked there, told me that the drug companies requested this: and my  podiatrist explained to me why he thought this so.

The drug companies harvest the hormones produced from their death.

If there were not so many humans on this planet, factory farming and the abattoirs set up wouldn’t happen.

The meat industry and drug companies are powerful multinationals so the chances of changing this seem slim: yet one of my sociology lecturers pointed out to me that things will change if enough people want this change!

light candle

If humans had any sense at all they would have implemented zero population growth long ago.

But as I said in a previous blog, to fit in with the human culture it is necessary to be a mindless automaton: to be successful in supporting the Protestant ethic one must be a sociopath and a narcissist.

I have copped abuse and ridicule for being a vegetarian and told “this is why we grow them!” or “It’s nature”!

To end on a positive note: I am reminded that there are caring people who think beyond what the media tells them.

Be blessed

Are Humans Indigenous To This Planet?

I think that eventually the “Powers That Be” will release a virus that targets a specific genetic marker to reduce the human population but I didn’t want to write an horror story. I tried to make it an happy story and kept it short and was hoping to write a follow up if it was popular enough.                                                                                                    Long ago when I did media studies as an elective we were told that just because something is poplar doesn’t mean it is good and visa versa:                                                                                                                                                       I remember when “only the cult following ” liked Start Trek and Monty Python: so maybe there is hope for this little book

 

 

 

The Meaning of Life —I don’t think there is one!

monty pythons meaning of life

This blog is just my personal opinion and certainly a broad generalization.

 

I respect people’s right to their religious beliefs but this doesn’t extend to “New Age” yuppies: Actually, considering the definition of “yuppie” new age posers would claim they are not “yuppies” because they are not materialistic but I think it fits their description perfectly.

I label religion as fascist because it is an absolute ideology: but your average mindless automaton patronisingly spouting new age crap is equally fascist because they don’t allow people to dis agree.

I don’t believe in karma. Karma, like god is a way of stopping the peasants from revolting. If one believes God will change things or what goes around comes around they will not try to change things themselves. And karma is the Hindi word for work: e.g. karma sutra. – a form of work I am sure most would enjoy.

AG00022_

Another new age philosophy which infuriates me is that we should thank abusers, sociopaths and psychopaths for teaching us something. Certainly, fits in with a culture that supports and glorifies criminals and tell victims that they must have deserved it!

This theory is based on the “New Age” assumption that we are here to learn.

Really! What I have learned in my almost three score years and ten is that to fit in one is required to be a mindless automaton: to succeed it is necessary to be a sociopath and a narcissist!

I realize we as humans try to find a meaning to life and I am not sure that there is one.                              I don’t disagree with everything that is now labelled “New Age”.

I agree with positive thinking and in “spiritual” healing.  I have “seen” healing energy swirling electric blue and auras expand. In my opinion, our thoughts and words do have power.

I like sceptics — people who question what they are told. (Including my blogs)

Long ago, a lecturer at college told me that I was an original thinking. I realize it was a compliment but although “original thinkers”  can no longer be put to death, we certainly don’t fit in.

No wonder I am anthrophobic.

Wicca

pentagram

Wicca means wise and or “to bend” ( as in bending energies)

I am a third degree initiate of The Craft.

What attracted me to Wicca in the seventies was that most of the people that I knew  (in Wicca) were concerned about the planet and other life forms.

I was (and still am) a vegetarian: involved with Animal Liberation: Greenpeace and Women’s Liberation. In later years, I was involved with Trees for Life.

Women’s liberation was necessary because we may have had the vote but women had no rights  and no status. Wicca is matriarchal.

Other life forms still have no rights or status.                                                              Humans are still raping our Mother Earth.

Some people still think witches worship Satan and use blood sacrifices!

We do not!

alan-full-moon.jpg

I used to lecture on Wicca so I have researched this!

In western culture the idea of Satan worship  came from the Inquisition and was taken up by what we witches call Satanists.

Because Wicca is a resurgence of an old religion it is difficult to find out what really happened in the distant past and I would presume they did use blood sacrifices?

In modern Wicca energy is raised by dance, as in the cone of power and by singing and chanting.

One can also use sex magic.

There is power in body fluids. If you are so inclined you can use a small amount of your own blood.

When I first started, we couldn’t buy books or ritual tools so mine are all homemade.

book shadows    my Book of Shadows

There is:-

The magic of the mind

The magic of the four elements

The magic of herbs and flowers

The magic of numbers

The magic of colours

The magic of talismans and amulets

The magic of sex

The magic of dreams

There are plenty of books on magic these days.

One of the late Stewart Farrar’s books for which I filled out a questionnaire gives an over view on  modern witches.

Because I am an atheist I perceive the god and goddess as “thought forms”.

Thank God I’m An Atheist: Pun Intended

The terrorist bombing in Manchester motivated me to repost this!

(And although I grew up “Down Under” I was born in Wigan )

I cannot subjectively understand why someone would do this!                                Objectively I understand how people are “brainwashed” by religion.

I studied religion as an elective at uni  in the 1970’s and noticed that the Koran is so like the Old Testament!

Say religion: say fascism!

Karl Marx said : “Religion is the opiate of the masses”– If people believe that they will be rewarded in an afterlife or that “god” decreed something – they are not likely to rebel in order to change things: The kings of old said they ruled by the will of the gods and were descended from same.

Religion was/is a way to control the masses.

We do not have some omnipotent being to please or displease Some one who will punish us if we are bad and reward us for being good. I obviously don’t believe in hell! Nor do I believe in karma. (The word actually translates to “work”) If we believe god or karma will change injustice then we wont try to do this ourselves!

It was only at the beginning of  my 65th year that I admitted to myself that I did not believe in a God. I spent the greater part of my life looking for my spiritual home. Wicca suited me because we respect the planet and the earth as our Mother. Well, we did when I first started. Now that it is so popular, I think most “wanna bees” are only interested in spells and being different.

I have been trying to understand the nature of reality since I was seven years old.  I have had a few theories since then. In the 1990’s I used the analogy of us living in a virtual reality and of course when “The Matrix” came to the screen so many people recommended it. The Matrix was/is a creatively brilliant movie with subtle satire.

In recent years I have theorised that it has something to do with time being a dimension and linear time an illusion?

I was in Women’s lib; Animal lib; Greenpeace; Trees for Life– all in an attempt to make this a better world – Women’s lib has gone to the extreme where men now need liberating! The other organisations have become impotent bureaucracies that support the protestant ethic.

I am still a vegetarian and still care about all life forms

I now realize I can only help in the microcosm of my own little home.

Humans use religion to justify not implementing zero population growth.                      I cannot understand why humans do not see that because there are way too many of us we take the homes and food sources away from other life forms and these other life forms eventually become extinct. Western religion claims to care about animals but supports a meat industry and drug companies that mistreat animals on the excuse that humans are more important.

If we credit some “Being” as having created this reality; this “Being” would have to be a sadistic psychopath (and a misogynist). Every creature has to deprive some life form of its existence in order to survive. ( Its called eating) But also just breathing kills other life forms! As we breathe in micro-organisms.

I believe everything that exists has a consciousness: And because of my clairvoyant experiences I believe everything survives beyond physical death.

Here endeth the lesson.

 

Knowing that there are ads on my blog I am adding one of my own.
