I just did three posts, featuring three different idiotic black men, saying three different idiotic things:

And all three of them is a favorite example of white people's attempt to bring a "diversity of thought" to blacks.

Back To Pure Blogging: Hold Me Closer/Let Me Go Now

"I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just: that his justice cannot sleep forever: that considering numbers, nature and natural means only, a revolution of the wheel of fortune, an exchange of situation, is among possible events: that it may become probable by supernatural interference! The Almighty has no attribute which can take side with us in such a contest."

Like surveying the (equally silly) "spiritual but not religious" nation he founded, I never know whether to laugh or cry after reading Thomas Jefferson, seeing how he grasped another man's freedom so firmly.

"We have the wolf by the ears, and we can neither hold him, nor safely let him go."

Is it any wonder "I don't care" is construed as a winning argument, today, in the country he birthed?

The country whose citizenry still can't accept "I didn't do anything" as enough to muster a defense, against even internal tyranny, and - still - willingly forces it's citizens to die in it's streets as a result of it?

 What to do? What to do?

Questions: 

 What or who made the wolf "the wolf" back then? 

 What or who makes the wolf "the wolf" now?

Who was "the wolf" really? 

And who was, always, really "the wolf"?

And what is another's freedom, really - to someone lying to himself - but an instrument, invitation (and occasional obstacle) to cultism?

 

"What a stupendous, what an incomprehensible machine is man! Who can endure toil, famine, stripes, imprisonment and death itself in vindication of his own liberty and the next moment be deaf to all those motives whose power supported him through his trial, and inflict on his fellow men a bondage, one hour of which is fraught with more misery than ages of that which he rose in rebellion to oppose."

Yeah, it's hilarious how many, even today, somehow miss that,...

 

The Whole It's-Not-Religion-It's-Exercise Thing Is Funny

"Five years ago I did think I would find that single yoga tradition. But yoga constantly transformed and developed over time. Although there are a couple of main goals, there's nothing that shows up in every single yoga path.

For some traditions it was heightened consciousness and an end to suffering, a way to get out of the cycle of birth, death and re-birth that is so painful. But for other yoga traditions some of the goals were things like supernatural powers and the ability to control other people."

No Reason To Stop This, Notice This, Or Be Concerned

Sure - like supernatural hoaxes, none of this could've happened in a population that was educated to automatically know better - but putting critical thinking in schools? What kind of weirdo freaks do you want us to turn into?

Putin's A Sorry Rep (For Doing The Right Thing) But,...

If we did this, here, crime would drop to unseen levels:

"Moscow police have once again entered the dark realms of the paranormal, busting a Russian "psychic" ring that has been lifting curses for money — or, as the police claim, simply scaring clients into thinking they were jinxed. 

The alleged psychics ran a parapsychology center called Sapphira, complete with a call center, the city police website said Tuesday. 

The psychics also promoted their company through shows on cable television such as Komsomolskaya Pravda TV. Sapphira staff convinced callers they were cursed and claimed to be performing "magical" rituals during their phone conversations. The staff convinced their potential clients they needed supernatural help, which the center then provided for payment, the report said. 

The police did not disclose the group's price list for lifting curses, but said it seized 4 million rubles ($120,000) and a list of clients during raids at Sapphira's office and the homes of its staff. Six alleged psychics now face up to 10 years in prison on fraud charges, the report said."

Fraud? Psychics? Prison? Wow - whoda thunk it,...

 

O Show

If you want to understand the blind alley NewAge leads you down, first you have to understand the landscape:

As Fleming reiterates about this period, “The mainstream of European thought was not materialist but sacramental. In the sacramental view, the material and visible world paralleled another that was immaterial and invisible.” Science, magic, religion — they are all attempts to understand what is hidden from us, and sometimes the three blur together. Isaac Newton, as is well known, left hundreds of pages of notes on alchemy and astrology. Benjamin Franklin was a member of an elite Freemason Lodge called “The Nine Sisters.”  

“The basic premise of occult knowledge is that a search for hidden causes in nature may lead towards something higher than nature: absolute wisdom, supernatural power or the divine.” Naturally such an ambition can readily verge on the heterodox, not to say the diabolical, given its echo of the serpent’s insidious promise, “You shall be as gods.”

Which we've heard from Oprah, Shirley MacLain, J.Z. Knight, Rhonda Byrne - all of 'em. And while everyone's laughing, they're taking our money - and believing it. Oprah's ruling. Get it?

You will if you add a dose of this guy for seasoning,...
