RE: a political (and spiritual) being

Great rhetoric John O., in your world I have Fables and Myth and you have
meaningful amusements, like Kafka the religion with whom you frequently
dine. Imagination, some have different objects for their imagination to
work upon and for some these objects are historical and others fictional but
the last time I checked the fictional ones were negligible but the
historical ones aren't. When speaking only from personal experience
nothing can matter since you too are thinking you are seeing in your world
just like you are so quick to point out to everyone else and you have to
swallow it all and satisfaction comes from resisting the swim up river but
lying flaccid and letting it take you to the sea of you and there can be no
choosing of occurrences but accepting them as they are but we know this, at
the very bottom, is not true because your political rhetoric strives (on
lists, classrooms, and golf courses) to make changes in the larger world for
others. For some one who places so much stock in personal experience how do
you know what's best for others? How do you even know what amuses others?
Don't you know that your rhetoric is at odds with the satisfaction and
amusements of others? But of course all that can't matter because all of us
others are uncertain to the personal experiences of John O. we too are mere
tooth fairies and easter bunnies to John O., so if some are dashed to the
rocks below, they are expendable in Omlor world, unless we can provide a
momentary worldly amusement for his sticky personal experience. Now,
stickiness is great but in Omlor world others are just a tool. What is that
anyway to the uncertain knowing of Omlor world? Where clever rhetoric,
political power, and personal experience reigns supreme. If we entered
Omlor world we would have to bow and scrape not from free will choice but
because some one beats are heads and knees low with power in their rhetoric.
There is no T-truth to share but only the personal experience of the fittest
to guide those with power over others. So is this the meaning that is
offered to the devotees of Omlor world? We are told, "come let us over
throw so that we may be free" and many join in the deconstruction to find
the masters of the power of politics and rhetoric swooping in to pick up the
pieces for consumption for their personal experiences and amusements. Now
John may not desire dominion over anyone but his allegiance to personal
experience and his firm grasp of power, politics, and rhetorics react quite
chemically into a very rapid release of uncontrolled energy which unravels
order and the re-establishment of order comes at a higher cost thanks to the
2nd law of thermodynamics. Now, who's order is destroyed? Well in Omlor
world, all order eventually. So again, what do you MEAN by "All the best"?
 
Marx and Lenin wanted all the best but their rhetoric left out the Achilles
hill of personal experience, and their paradise was ripe for the vision of
those with the clever rhetoric and powerful politics to reign supreme which
was just the harrowing of the soil for the seed of the next revolution with
visions of their paradise born of personal experience. Now religion can
carry the same seeds of self destruction but there is religion that clings
to the division of power until the "tooth fairy" can set things aright.
This vision makes room for Omlors but the Omlor world has no hedge against
the brave new world and God Help us, both friends and enemies and enemies
fro that world.
 
Think about it, the brave new world is the vision of those with more clever
rhetoric and no moral limits to impede them from fulfilling their vision.
Luke's world depends on the spirit returning to the physical and if Jesus is
a fable then what does John have to fear? But the utopias of John's
material amusements is filled with tactile iron bars for walls, guns that
accelerate hunks of metal at high speed, test tubes for amusing ones self in
juggling the human genome, and the rest of the list of who must surrender
their power to whomever plays enough golf to negotiate deals between holes.
Some say that their are always winners and loser in the Omlor world of
politics, power, and rhetoric, but if this is so then why do so many rage
against the unfairness of it all? Raging? You just eat or are eaten. Tina
is right, we are all head pinchers but some of us are more Truthful about
it. We eat each other but some of us have found substitute flesh.

Hi Jim,

I think if you go back and look, the phrase "produce a similar effect"
referred specifically to thinking one sees things...

And I was speaking from personal experience.

But it's no matter. I'm satisfied with the discussion as it has occurred.

And I've just had a very good afternoon. :)

I'm off to other worldly amusements.

All the best,

--John
