BOOKS: Speaking of books, just a short note today. I would encourage everyone to read my powerful little book Wilderness Cry: not just because I want to sell books, which I do, but for its content. I believe you will be astonished by what you read. I give you a picture of God and His universe never before put forward. It is copyrighted material fully protected by Us Copyright. I do what no one else has ever done in my way; I define God, the Trinity, the Holy Spirit (God’s Will); I show in scientific and defensible philosophical terms how God works in His universe, and, more importantly, why.  I touch literally all the important aspects of our existence. I show how religion and ideology have and still are destroying our world society, and are making real peace impossible. I plead for acceptance of Jesus’ two commandments of Love of God and Neighbor, which would unite us, rather than following down the road of destruction paved by religion and ideologies. It is a must read for your complete peace of mind. Available Amazon, Kindle, and all on-line book retailers

I have been reading many posts the last few days about anxiety, depression, lack of self-esteem etc. It should be noted that there is always a significant up-tick in these feelings during dark of winter, and especially near Christmas-time. There are two categories of anxiety; one type is generated by real circumstances such as concerns about where your next rent payment will come from. That is conscious anxiety and normal. The next type, which is universal, is subconscious anxiety which has a much different generator.  It is instilled in us at an early age before we are rational. We are made to believe that we are bad by well-meaning parents, teachers, preachers and others. Those ideas and feelings are stored in our subconsciousness. We don’t remember the specific incidents which caused the ideas and feelings, but we have a general feeling of uneasiness and don’t know why. The more we have been poorly indoctrinated in our formative years, the greater feelings of guilt and anxiety we exhibit. Greater degrees and extremes of anxiety may, and frequently do, lead to depression, even to the point of taking ones own life. Depression is caused by our failed exhaustive attempts to ward off punishment generated by the guilt instilled in us. We see defensive reactions exhibited in many ways but two stand out. One is the overbearing hot head know-it-all who has to be right all the time; would argue a point “till hell freezes over”, and all the time likely being wrong. The other in the cowed, meek, person who  exhibits no feelings of self esteem. Typically, that person is shy, backward, hates to meet new people, doesn’t like crowds, would panic if asked to speak to a public audience, and typically will cling to one or two people in their lives. Usually they live in constant fear but have no idea why. In my powerful little book, Wilderness Cry, I show how Ideologies and Religion are the two main culprits in causing those problems. Both of those entities impose on us ideas and demands totally contrary to our God-given nature. As infants, toddlers and small children, we are not capable of a rational analysis of these contrarian ideas; we simply are left with the built-in ideas that we are bad which generates guilt; guilt generates need for punishment; punishment generates anxiety which generates feelings of worthlessness and depression. I show in my book that religions and ideologies in general have ignored Jesus’ command for us to love one another as ourselves. If that were the norm in our society, our children would be inculcated in a framework of love and acceptance. The result would be dramatic. Universal peace would prevail, anxiety would be reduced to a minimum, and people would be God-loving and people-loving. It will likely never happen because of Power, Money and Control. Dictators and Church Hierarchy will never relinquish their Power. For an understanding of how to rid yourself of these anxious feelings and for a complete elucidation of many, many more concepts, you must read my book, Wilderness Cry- a Scientific and Philosophical Approach to Understanding God and the Universe.

via daily Prompt: Theory- My book Wilderness Cry- A scientific and philosophical approach to understanding God and universe, certainly could be classified under the heading of theory because nothing can be proven. However, all concepts regarding God are theory. No one can prove God’s existence. We accept or reject concept of God based on Faith. My acceptance is that there is God. Having said that allows me to develop a philosophy of how God operates in His universe(s). That philosophy is based primarily on known science, history, and logic with minimal reference to bible. It incriminates ideologies and religion as the cause of all the worlds problem,because those entities are dividers; they set people against one another. Love, however, as Jesus is pro-ported to have preached, is a uniter. That is the basis of my philosophy. I define the essence of God, the Trinity, and God’s will. From those definitions come ready answers to all the imponderable “mysteries” in our lives. Amazon calls it A REAL EYE OPENER. You might want to check it out.

Chemistry is what makes/allows the universe to tic/function. Psychology is what allows/determines how rational beings tic/function. Philosophy is a System Of Ideas, derived from known and/or presumed facts, set into a concrete pattern by psychologically derived rational beings. Whew!What a mouth-full. So What? the what is that all of us so-called Christians are afflicted by a psychologically deranged personality which has been prejudiced by erroneous philosophy. That philosophy was derived from false scientific premises which presumed many fallacies. Those included the concept that women were intrinsically inferior to men, that they contained all the inherent enticement to sin, and that they were not the generators of babies, only the incubators; all babies were in the man’s semen. That allowed Thomas Aquinas to conclude that male masturbation as well as sex with woman on top were the worst sins that could be committed. The reason being that all the babies were being spilled to their death. Also, he sought desperately to explain the Church’s idea of God being some human-like figure sitting on a throne in heaven separate from His creation. Therefore he concocted the concepts of Natural Law and Divine Law. Not knowing any chemistry, biology, physics, quantum mechanics etc. allowed him to assume that God was separate from His creation; He simply made it to work like a machine but was not embedded in it. In that way Aquinas could conveniently perpetuate the Jews and Christian idea of a God separate from His creation. That was the Biblical God, which, of course, was created by the early Jewish writers. Now fast forward 2000 years. Chemistry: we know or seem to know exactly what the universe is made of (identical tiniest particles of energy, quanta, with different names, but each of its’ kind perfect in form and function. My contention (philosophy) is that those particles could not be nor stay perfect without the Perfect Spirit (Holy Spirit ) being embedded in them. Now, psychologically speaking, I am the product of each of my entire life’s experiences, beginning with my basic genetic make-up until this very moment; so are you. Hence each of us is similar but very, very different. We each have been prejudiced by influences beyond our control. Each of us has been inflicted with undue feelings of guilt by well=meaning parents, teachers and preachers. Those prejudices and feelings always influence our decision making and set us apart. I believe without doubt that Jesus understood the psychology (He didn’t know the chemistry), and for that reason, he suggested that we must love (accept) each other as ourselves if we are to be happy. So there you have it: because I know so many important facts unknown to Aquinas, I am able and mandated to develop a philosophy completely different from his while using the same logic techniques. Before I could begin the development of a comprehensive philosophy, I had to define God; no one else has. Explicitly stated, “God Is A Perfect Rational Being”. From that definition flows all logic. My powerful little book Wilderness Cry explains all; a must read. Amazon and all on-line book retailers $10.95; autographed from me $10.00 + postage if applicable. A perfect Christmas gift!

Here’s a head-scratcher for you. Think on this; is God perfect? I think so. Well, what does perfect mean? To me it means wholeness, completeness. It is incorruptible, meaning no change is possible. I really hate to “bust anyone’s bubble”, but in light of our definition of God as “A Perfect Rational Being”, many of the things we’ve been lead to believe have to be myth. If we accept that everything in this universe is the direct result of God’s perfect Intellect imagining it and His Will (Holy Spirit) achieving and maintaining its perfection, then we must conclude the following: miracles, as we understand them to be (God’s direct intervention), are impossible; Jesus’ virgin birth, resurrection, ascension likewise are impossible. I am able and mandated to say that because all those events would require a “change” in God’s nature. Since God is Perfect, change is not possible. Change requires an element of time, and since God exists in Eternity, no time is possible. So where does that leave us. In my opinion, it leaves us with a natural born genius Jesus who saw through the universal evil of all things by virtue of everything’s universal selfishness. He recognized the “need” for God’s Perfect love to be attained and demonstrated. Since He was the only one to recognize that, He realized that He was the Messiah; the One to “pay the price”. It was His death that was the ultimate Sacrifice of accomplishment. His resurrection and ascension were not necessary nor possible. For a complete understanding of how and why the “myths” were created by biblical writers, you must read my powerful little book Wilderness Cry, which explains all in irrefutable, scientific, historical and philosophic terms. WE are rapidly approaching Christmas, a glorious time when we celebrate the birth of Our Savior. That celebration should be based on reality, not on myth. Jesus is the Savior of the “entirety” of God’s creation! Amazon and all 0n-line book retailers $10.95; locally autographed by me $10.00 + postage if needed.

We are constantly bombarded with exhortations to both beg and thank God for his mercy; in the next breath we are told that God loves us. If God loves us all equally, as we are told, why should anyone have to beg God for mercy? We are led to believe that those who, beg harder will be shown more mercy, but likely none will gain full pardon, mandating a varying time in purgatory. One can say indulgence bearing prayers to shorten that time in torment. There once was a time in church history when rich people could “buy” indulgences, and gain entry into heaven quicker than a poor peasant. All of that implies a God that is a string-pulling puppeteer who can be influenced and bought. If God is “perfect love”, and who can deny that He is?, it follows that He does, in fact, love each of us equally. He sent us Jesus who graciously died to ameliorate all our evil (selfishness), and He demanded NO recompense (Perfect Love means acceptance without conditions). Therefore God is All Loving, not All Merciful. He allowed everything in this universe to develop selfishly, so His universe could function. If there were no selfishness, there would be no need; with no need, there would be no change; with no change, there would be no time, and, of course, with no time, there would be only ETERNITY. So, what are we to do. I’m trying desperately to do as Jesus commanded (suggested) we do; Love my God with my all, and Love each of you everywhere as myself. I accept that my only justifiable prayer is “Thank You, Trinity God”. Don’t you think you should try the same? For a more complete elucidation of these and many, many more concepts, I would encourage you to read my powerful little, book Wilderness Cry; Autographed copies by me $10 plus postage, if needed; Amazon and all online book retailers $10.95.
