The World Of Tomorrow
PERHAPS NEVER before has there been so much speculation about the future as there is today. Will our world always be one of violence? Will there always be poverty, starvation, misery? Will we have a firmer and wide belief in religion, or will the world be godless? If there is to be a great change in society, how will that change be wrought? By war, or revolution? Or will it come peacefully?
Different men give different answers to these questions, each man drawing the plan of tomorrow's world as he hopes and wishes it to be. I answer not only out of belief but out of conviction. The world of tomorrow will be, must be, a society based on non-violence. That is the first law; out of it all other blessings will flow. It may seem a distant goal, an impractical Utopia. But it is not in the least unobtainable, since it can be worked for here and now. An individual can adopt the way of life of the future-the non-violent way-without having to wait for others to do so. And if an individual can do it, cannot whole groups of individuals? Whole nations? Men often hesitate to make a beginning because they feel that the objective cannot be achieved in its entirety. This attitude of mind is precisely our greatest obstacle to progress-an obstacle that each man, if he only will it, can clear away.

The first bowl on the earth
The second bowl on the sea
The third bowl on the rivers
The fourth bowl on the sun
The fifth bowl on the beast
The sixth bowl on the stars
The seventh bowl on the air
.
And the earth turned grey
Sea turned black
The rivers turned red
The sun turned cold
The beast turned pale
The stars turned fast
The air turned to poison

When a specie that has reached the crossroads of intelligence and technology, as we have now, the ability to act and use those advances are at a crucial stage of self-destruction or to enlightenment. Will we self-destruct from the ambition of leaders who engage in warfare for a cause that will never be achieved either to attain God's heaven on earth or to fight the ever present terrorist that lurks behind every shadow, or to advance finally to reach other stars and to meet other intelligent life such as our own. From our history, the answer seems written in stone. When leaders manipulate history or intelligence as we have seen done so in the Iraq war or as was recently declared by the president of Iran that the Holocast was masterminded by Zionists to re-create the state of Israel. The future seems dim at the most. Our faith in sealed in such stone.
I wish I could find a discussion thread that I started many years ago on Eplaya so I can just repost it but I will reiterate it but not verbatim. Please note that I was in a drug-like trance at the time and was suffering from heavy-metal poisoning including Arsenic with was used by the oracles of Apollo to predict or to comunicate with the gods and other divinities. It went as such;
No being, beings or life-forms of any kind will ever be allowed to travel into space that has shown destructive tendencies not only to others of their own kind or to people of other race, nationality or religion on their own planet. If specie that can not resolve differences at their own planetary level of evolvement then how would they ever expect to interact with extraterestials that would have no similar form to our own. Beings such as those would only distrust and distrust breeds resentment which leads to war- star wars. And Star Wars can never be allowed to happen. How could beings that are ready to rape and extract wealth from other planets destined for life-forms yet to evolve ever be tolerated to do so. It is not ours and it was never meant to be. No being as such will be given a change to infect other planets or solar systems. Life for such a being would have to be terminated!
Yes that was totally miserable to my original post which was more foreboding. Today I call it that theory the Zeus Factor. If you like to learn more then read about Zeus's premonition about mankind then read the Prometheus and Emetheus Myths in Greek Literature. Either we become a non-violent as Gandhi hopes or the Zeus's Will will happen!

PS- if anyone can find that original post in the archives please I would like to have a copy.
PSS- did you know that Gandhi was an actual racist when he was a lawyer in south africa! Shocking isn't it.

I'm sure the fine folks at Camp Apokiliptika could accomodate your desire for "fun" since they specialize in the end of the world.Jungfraueigerbane wrote:Armageddon would be fun...
