The fall Of The United States

The fall Of The United States 

First off, I am a huge proponent of democracy and capitalism. This is not meant to be an anti-democracy commentary.

" A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury." From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to lose fiscal policy, which is always followed by dictatorship.

“The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence:

1) From bondage to spiritual faith;
2) From spiritual faith to great courage;
3) From courage to liberty;
4) From liberty to abundance;
5) From abundance to complacency;
6) From complacency to apathy;
7) From apathy to dependence;
8) From dependence back to bondage ...”
Alexander Tyler, 1787

I am not Saying that we should not be a Democracy, we need to fight to keep what we had. I would argue we are entering stage 8 right now. We need to fight. Fact is People voted others into power of promise that they will “GET” by doing less. By giving lazy power then the population becomes slaves. By the voters uneducated intentions. We see it all ready, power and money made policy to weaken the majority and those who are better off “GET” The uneducated voted for them believing What? A person’s actions and statement of hate, prejudice, and preaching division, “Is right?” But here we are, the fall of a once a great Country, “Trump, his voters and defenders are all guilty!” Atrocity against the Constitution and the law of Governance the weakening of the majority by starvation, homelessness, sickness, division by dictating hatted all the while convincing others they were right because they Have and we don’t because the voters gave them the power and defend them, No human decency, respect, or even compassion, Just plain Hatred. “Really what does it serve? How does it make one feel right?” We are in danger and no one seems to care. No code of honor in anyone, just lazy uneducated hateful disrespect of anyone not themselves. “The true value of humanity lost forever in selfishness.” 

                                              "Nothing is more important than our word, it truly is our only value"

Is being right important?

So I guess the question’s would be, “Is being right important?”  or “Is the free will of one self  to make believe what they think is right, that the facts are too be ignored ?” Allowing yourself to make believe your right because the majority believe it true. How then can the facts then be unimportant ?. I can’t understand how so many pretend to be justified in essentially a lie. To uphold and show character, loyalty and honor, in such disrespect for truth. Then is it not concluded that if you show such character you are as equally guilty and in turn should be held accountable weather or not you can make believe your right. That ignorance is excusable or that  being right  doesn’t matter. My thought is that as a human We should be striving to be the best of the human race and that should always matter .

Analytical

As most of you know about the thing's being said lately, I  find my self sitting here by the side watching others I find a displacement in the thought patterns of the eluded citizens I often wonder “what the H*** are they thinking?” there facts don’t justify their reason, confusion and dismay seem too give them justification for misbehavior so in dealing with them I find it easier to sit outside and observe. What apparently, we have here is ridicules drama, it is clear that their influence is the lack of education It’s a shame they can’t understand what they read, they see the words but lack the comprehension to make a logical conclusion which gives me this word for today “Analytical”.
                                                                 

Dividing into elemental parts or basic principles.

Reasoning or acting from a perception of the parts and interrelations of a subject. Proving a known truth by reasoning from that which is to be proved. Or “Linguistics” Expressing a grammatical function by using two or more words instead of an inflected form.

Dividing into elemental parts or basic principles. You may think that I am insulating, but truth be told “I AM” To understand fairly, the ability to take all the information on a subject and build a conclusion from facts. You don’t need to be a genius to conclude a logical outcome of truthful information. If you don’t Understand what I am saying get a dictionary. I am being as clear as I can.

As adults, it’s our responsibility to the truth when we are deliberately ignorant the effect on others can be profoundly disrupting and cause many problems. For one thing using hate and meanness to justify prejudice is willfully unacceptable, we are the human race; And as my mom used to say “To each there own” We are the people of earth, it does not matter what religion, color or culture were from we are all people. Its absolutely appalling to me that the opinion of some to violate others, the fact that they can’t see by judging someone they are showing how ignorant they really are, and when faced with the truth they revert to a primal state of stupidity and start the name calling, speaking of truth, decent human behavior when we accept the outrageous and unacceptable and disgusting from others we are condoning it. what of our children and other people’s children when we condone bad behavior what of the effects on them and how are others who lack any understanding to be able to learn basic human decency? "when we violate others with our behavior and opinion most often is full of hate , bigotry and prejudice its not human decency." giving someone the facts of a subject does not need the effect of emotional baggage that often fallows

Sycophant

After watching the news and reading the comments on face book I started realizing how unsophisticated some of my family members and friends are Supporting Trump? “what, could they be thinking?” not to mention others around town that have unintelligent ideas of politics, you would think they would refrain from having an opinion at all but ignorance begets ignorance I guess. Not much of a cure for that, although I do have other word's that they may understand like, Parasite, toady, leech or sponge which means a usually obsequious flatterer or self-seeker. Parasite to one who clings to a person of wealth, power, or influence or is useless to society (a jet-setter with an entourage of parasites.) Sycophant adds to this a strong suggestion of fawning, flattery, or adulation (a powerful prince surrounded by sycophants). Toady emphasizes the servility and snobbery of the self-seeker (cultivated leaders of society and became their toady). Leech stresses persistence in clinging to or bleeding another for one's own advantage (a leech living off his family and friends). Sponge stresses the parasitic laziness, dependence, and opportunism of the cadger (a shiftless sponge, always looking for a handout). or a hand up.

As I ponder with amazement my unfortunate recipients, here’s a little history on the word of today.

In the 1530s (in Latin form sycophanta), "informer, talebearer, slanderer," from Latin sycophanta, from Greek sycophants’, originally "one who shows the fig," from sykon "fig" + phanein "to show." "Showing the fig" was a vulgar gesture made by sticking the thumb between two fingers, a display which vaguely resembles a fig, itself symbolic of a vagina (sykon also meant "vulva"). The story goes that prominent politicians in ancient Greece held aloof from such inflammatory gestures, but privately urged their followers to taunt their opponents. The sense of "mean, servile flatterer" is first recorded in English 1570s.

The word "sycophant" entered the English and French languages in the mid-16th Century, and originally had the same meaning in English and French (sycophante) as in Greek, a false accuser. Today, in Greek and French it retains the original meaning.

The meaning in English has changed over time, however, and came to mean an insincere flatterer. The common thread in the older and current meanings is that the sycophant is in both instances portrayed as a kind of parasite, speaking falsely and insincerely in the accusation or the flattery for gain. The Greek plays often combined in one single character the elements of the parasite and the sycophant, and the natural similarities of the two closely related types led to the shift in the meaning of the word. The sycophant in both meanings can also be viewed as two sides of the same coin: the same person currying one's favor by insincere flattery is also spreading false tales and accusations behind one's back. In Renaissance English, the word was used in both senses and meanings, that of the Greek informer, and the current sense of a "flattering parasite", with both being cast as enemies—not only of those they wrong, but also of the person or state that they ostensibly serve.

I know most of you may not understand the insult, I can assure you it’s well thought, As I am bewildered by your atrocities of thinking aloud. I can’t explain without sounding more intelligent then you, but it’s true. I know I am. So I feel justified in my statements, there for I make a stand,

Following the political atmasphire of today I relize some of your prejudice is not justicefied or warnted and thoe I cant tell you what to think I can however educate you on how to keep your thoughts to your self and stop embarrassing you and your family, you may consider wathching Startrek and learn a few things about tolarance of others,As many of you concider claming you have certian alianable  rights and feel you have a right to trod on others, my thought is simple you don’t have that right to expect to vialate others rights and be vindacated in your judgement. Further more sit back and avaluate your selves and ask your self ( “Is this all there is to me?”)

It may invoke realaty or not, You may just begone to far to fix your self.

Things Not In The Bible

There Was No "Apple" in Genesis: Everyone knows the iconic story of the serpent tempting Eve with an apple from the forbidden tree of knowledge. However, the Bible isn't specific when it comes to the actual fruit. Genesis 3:6 states: "When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, And that the tree was desirable to make one wise, She took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate." Some suggest that the fruit was most likely a pomegranate. The Three Wise Men: While it's true that three gifts were given (gold, frankincense, and myrrh), It doesn't specifically say that they were brought by three kings; there could have been any number of magi. And what's more, they didn't visit the baby Jesus on the night of his birth. They came days, months or even years later. Matthew 2:11 states: "After coming into the house they saw the Child with Mary His mother; and they fell to the ground and worshiped Him. “Emphasis on house...not stable. The Whale Swallowed Jonah: This is another example of the Bible being a bit vague. Although many are taught that a whale swallowed Jonah, it was actually "a great fish." No mention of a whale, specifically. "Money is the root of all evil." Not to get technical, but in 1 Timothy 6:10, the line is: "For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, And some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." The 7 Deadly Sins: If you tried to find a list of the seven traditional deadly sins (Greed, wrath, sloth, pride, lust, gluttony and envy) in the Bible, These seven are part of church tradition but cannot be found in any discernible list. Instead there are references to sins, such as Proverbs 6:16-19 which states: "There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, A false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers. "Those don't sound quite as familiar. Jesus Condemning Homosexuality: That's not to say that you can't find references to it in the Bible. According to Leviticus 20:13: "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, Both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their blood guiltiness is upon them." However, Jesus himself had virtually nothing to say on the subject. He focused more on giving to the poor, loving your enemies, and forgiveness. "Cleanliness is next to Godliness.” This quote can actually be attributed to John Wesley, an 18th century evangelist who founded Methodism. It first appeared in a printed sermon entitled "On Dress" in 1769.The line is: "Slovenliness is no part of religion... Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness." The Devil: So there is mention of Satan in the Bible, but it's certainly not the pointy beard, Red-horned pitchfork waving Satan we all think of today. According to the Bible, Satan was a fallen angel who rebelled against God and took A third of the angels with him into rebellion. “The Lord works in mysterious ways.” Surprisingly, this phrase cannot be found anywhere in the Bible and its exact origins are unknown. Some say it's from a hymn written by William Cowper in the 19th century: "God moves in a mysterious way; His wonders to perform; He plans His footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm."

Oligarchy

Shilvery And equality"
The reality of the human race to follow the independent struggles of the less fortunate only to subdue to the rich and the will of others to control , we say we are civilized and yet we see the atrocities of others only to do nothing we as the human race should be appalled by the allowance of any action that puts the wants and the needs of the few ahead of the many in the logic of masses a quote from.  "Lenard Naomi"     ( Spock) From Startrek  "The needs of the many should way out the needs of the few or the one"  logic dictates the mass out way's the whole ,, then again who decides ? I say the mass. Oligarchy  meaning "to rule or to command" Throughout history, oligarchies have often been tyrannical (relying on public obedience and/or oppression to exist). Aristotle pioneered the use of the term as a synonym for rule by the rich, for which another term commonly used today is plutocracy. During the fourth century BCE, after the restoration of democracy from oligarchical coups, the Athenians used the drawing of lots for selecting government officers in order to counteract what the Athenians saw as a tendency toward oligarchy in government if a professional governing class were allowed to use their skills for their own benefit. They drew lots from large groups of adult volunteers as a selection technique for civil servants performing judicial, executive, and administrative functions (archai, boulē, and hēliastai). They even used lots for posts, such as judges and jurors in the political courts (nomothetai), which had the power to overrule the Assembly. Today we use the freedoms of our voting to make a stand."extremely wealthy families are hell-bent on destroying the democratic vision of a strong middle-class which has made the United States the envy of the world. In its place they are determined to create an Oligarchy in which a small number of families control the economic and political life of our country. Our current President Knows this I have watched him for eight years and listened too what he has said. Others use hate and prejudice of whatever means to make whatever  they want to make believe, because of the ignorance of what is right and wrong, Truth be told the human right to be ,must be preserved, as our will to survive and live as our own to our own will, and belief that  we be truly free, I believe
all should believe that the Church teaches and every one should observe all its directions what ever your religious title
Too defend the Church of the faith of others and one self
Too respect all weaknesses, and constitute oneself the defender of them
Everyone should love the country in which there born .
Too never recoil before your enemy.
Show no mercy to them . Do not hesitate to make war.
Perform all your feudal duties as long as they do not conflict with the laws of God. Never lie, and always remain faithful to your pledged word
Be generous, and give largesse to everyone.
Always the champion of the Right and the Good against Injustice and Evil.
