World Without War

How far would you go to live in a world without war? What would you endure? Or even give up?

An article I came across in Pravada based in Russia asked this question of people in the smaller towns. (http://www.pravdareport.com/russia/economics/21-11-2018/142030-russians-0/) These folks know how to endure through severe hardships. Hardships most Americans couldn't handle. I don't mean to sound like I am demeaning Americans. There aren't many survivors of the Great Depression left, but these people learned how to survive.

Russian people went from a Czar which was clumsy and not the most confident guy to a dictator which promised equality and brotherhood. NO! They got everything but that. They got equally poorer and starved. They were forced into cannibalism and often murdered by the state they were told was here for them. Yes, the communist did teach people to read who had been forced to be illiterate because of the laws regarding servants. It was permanent and hereditary.

Now let's take on the elephant in the room. Yes, they killed many people. Over the last twenty years alone, capitalism has killed twice as many people than the communist did over a forty year period. Now think about this, capitalism has been around for two hundred or so years. Communism has been around for about a hundred and a half. I don't know who had kept count, but who says that communism has killed more people than any other system is wrong.

So I ask you again, what would you give up or endure for peace? Real peace, not this none sense if you do what we say and there's peace. If not, look out.

War Is A Racket

  This is an excellent quick read. If you don’t have ADHD, it’s a quick read. I started this book before Thanksgiving so between the holidays and every day crazy train I finally finished it. Of course, I made notes in each chapter about my thoughts. We’ll see if this helped compared to the chapter-by-chapter review we did on The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins.  Throughout the book, General Butler covers the ins and outs of war. He looks at the financial cost and the human cost. He starts out by explaining how the military-industrial complex was formed. Which I do think is critical. Most people in America don’t understand what the military-industrial complex is. Never mind how it is used. I am not going into detail here just read The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man. You will understand the order in which things unfold. The minority of Americans know who profits from war and who doesn’t. General Butler covers that as well. You will notice I said ‘m...

How America Angered God Lust

  We left off at Wrath. Now we will continue this list and finish it out. Sin: Lust This is the sin that nails us all. It is wanting power, pleasure, and money. Not necessarily all of these but one or all.  I grew up in the 1980s so when I think of examples of this particular sin I am reminded of Jim Baker and Jessica Hawn. He was married to Tammy and lusted after two things; money and Jessica. Their lust brought them down in the end. Tammy had her own lust for money that contributed to their downfall.  Ten Commandment:  Thou shall not commit adultery.  Virtue: Chastity Being chaste is recommended by Christ. In the book of Mathew chapters 19: 12 and 22: 20 Christ talks of being chaste. Being chaste teaches discipline. https://youtu.be/7Y8lHwOIu_A
