Orthodoxy

Orthodoxy can not stand against the available information via the World Wide Web. Fight for the freedom of information, do no harm, but protest and boycott the rich for whom we are their food and future.

"Our democracy is but a name. We vote? What does that mean? It means that we choose between two bodies of real, though not avowed, autocrats. We choose between Tweedledum and Tweedledee.… You ask for votes for women. What good can votes do when ten-elevenths of the land of Great Britain belongs to 200,000 and only one-eleventh to the rest of the 40,000,000? Have your men with their millions of votes freed themselves from this injustice?" -Letter published in the Manchester Advertiser (3 March 1911), quoted in A People's History of the United States (1980) page 345 -Helen Keller

"When we love properly, we expand our love for a few to compassion for all. This love can help all beings to live with happiness and freedom, and it is anything but small and powerless--it is the reason for our existence!" - Buddhist Master

Censorship is the weapon of those who seek to keep the status quo. Manifest principally in education designating those who wish to live well in pre assigned roles of slavery. My sense is that they are the economic terrorist who control everything we do and will to become. Follow the money, the coin of power and see where it goes and who it defends. Discovering in the process who pays living and dying in prostitution to ideals impractical to real life; in flesh and blood terms--as lived.

Obvious to you and to myself, through the reliance, in this instance, upon quotes, is a discovery that from the beginning to end of all history by communication there are threads of revolutionary protest indicating a higher consciousness of what it means to be a person inconvenient to those who administrate our lives.

What I advocate is not revolution but consciousness of who wins and who loses; merely justice as defined by history . . . 121129 02:38 I stopped at this point unsure; disheartened by a seasonal report on the commercialization of what is intrinsically meaningful to me. Our values change as we grow in understanding of what issues are valuable and lacking in any meaning other than greed. Real kindness instead of hype and millions upon billions stolen from us to convince we, the consumers that they, the corporations and institutions are benign instead of malevolent.

We are at a turning point in history and have an opportunity to participate in what we want from life; something greater, kinder and more loving than what is on offer for the sweat of our brow. Institutions: governmental, religious or business lie all the time. Beware. We must agree together and not be lead by those who profit.
