Coping with the current stupendous geopolitical change reality

Setting the people free! What a job. What a difference just a week makes anymore!

There seems to be no limit to the mini would be messiahs today. Sadly most of them cloak their speeches in terms of democracy for all. Keeping with that geopolitical theme, most of these saviors, in the process of implementing their dream world, seek to subjugate that democracy to their own glory. So instead of being a messiah, their secret goal is to become Pharaoh, enslaving the people to the perverse will of a perverted enlightenment.

Islam seeks this reality through a collective theocracy called the caliphate. What we see happening today is the beginnings of a power struggle, not just between authoritarian leadership and the people, but also between Shiite and Sunni divergent wings of the Moslem faith.

We, who are fortunate to live in secular western cultures, believe that this tension is no big deal, for we self-righteously understand, beyond a shadow of any doubt, that all religions are essentially the same, and are really crutches for those who have not evolved enough to comprehend the wonder of our collective exceptionalism.

In that same illumination token, we think that the new democracy direction that began in Egypt, will end with them buying off on our vision of gross materialism through debt leverage. Of course that model isn’t working all that well at the present time, but you just need to have faith that we will quickly get that economic ship headed in the right direction and it will be full speed ahead.

The problem with this wishful thinking is that western culture was successfully built upon the concept of individual private property rights that extend well beyond your consumer conveniences. That wonderful wealth producing reality is the great divergence within those of Semitic cultures. Both are forbearers of our present worldviews. Private property rights are the gift to the world through the lineage of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob — not Abraham and Ishmael.

When you fully refine the sources of the Ten Plagues of our modern world, which we discussed last week, they really don’t believe in those individual rights either. In essence to develop the way human society must evolve, we must give up those rights, essentially to save the planet.
