Hmm, the trailers did look good-then i saw a bit of an interveiw with Redford, aaand it suddenly didnt sound very good. The plot seemed to suggest a melodramatic windfest, thanks for the confirmation.
"The lion shall lie down with the lamb" means that strength is found within innocence. It means that the strong see no reason to attack anything. It means only the innocent are strong. It means the strong see only innocence, everywhere, always. God is strong. God sees no guilt, but your "leaders" do. This weakens your awareness of safety-without-weapons. This leads to justifications for attack. But there are never any justifications for attack. Your "leaders" are elected by the beliefs you elect to foster about guilt vs. innocence. Obviously, as a nation, most do not believe in pan-innocence...and so you fear attack and elect leaders that you think can protect you. But the terrorists are within your own borders, beginning with your own terrifying thoughts. The notion of guilt obliterates the memory of God from your awareness. So you turn to battle to solve your weakness problems. You can easily see a correlation between those who preach guilt, and those who see a need for a Department of Defense. Seeing a need for such a department, you will be taxed to your grave to support it. Those with the strength of God in their awareness could never think of battle. This world is for battle. So God does not really think about it except to offer it peace through the strength of pan-innocent perception. The offer is constant, and effective whenever it is made into policy by practice. It is an offer because it respects your equality with Him. It is a gift because it is a capability given you in your creation. You've been given the capability to remember who you are, even while you have been determined to forget. And in this way, He has guaranteed that you can never destroy yourself. Jesus
I am, no single word seems adequate to describe or encapsulate the wonderfully extraordinary things you write. But there is one that often and particularly springs to mind. Bullshit. stu
Prove it! Given a particularly powerful mind you could prove that truth is bullshit. And you have. So congratulations. The world is the result. It's your proof. And it's very convincing. The catch is that you could never prove it to your Self as God created you. You can only prove it to something other than your Self...something ignorant, something dumbed down, something with tunnel vision, something with a short attention span, something easily distracted. To accomplish this you must use your imagination to morph into something other than Self, masking Self with vulnerability, and giving it a face of innocence. So you became man. And now you can prove it with a baseball bat. You became a bull. And now a matador can prove it. You became a group of innocent little children. And now a virus can prove it. You became a civilization. And now a terrorist with a dirty bomb can prove it. You became a lamb. And now a religious ordinance can prove it. You became a wildabeast. Now a lion can prove it. You became Joe Q Public. Now Fox News can prove it. You made a body. You made the concept of pain. Now attack proves it. You have completely boxed yourself in with proof, everywhere to been seen and experienced. But it is completely made up of your imagination. It does not change the truth about your Self. It does not change the inheritance given you. You could only prove that truth is bullshit through a restriction of awareness of your inheritance. Therefore, if you expand your awareness back to it's natural scope, you will prove that the truth is true, and nothing else is true. The truth is, nothing can really hurt you. And Life cannot die. All else is bullshit. Jesus
Funny sh*t. You could sell that dude. Hell, all the other commie writers are on strike, and it doesn't take much nowadays.
The conception of a world in which truth is subverted invokes a concept God knows nothing about: Guilt. As guilt springs to mind, it provokes chaos. Out of this chaos the mind invents an ingenious sense of order, and the world is born. The world is painted with the face of innocence, and then goes about proving that innocence is weakness. Even more, it goes to show that innocence is blasphemous, and deserving of punishment. It sets out to prove that power comes from the barrel of a gun. It proves power comes from a scheming mind, testosterone, steroids...anything but innocence. So there is this appearance that innocence correlates with weakness, turning the truth upside down. But that is bullshit. And that is what the world is for making. Now comes the task of cleaning up the mess. Jesus
