A New Age

We live in The Age of Greed. It began as we moved from cooperative, nomadic clans to agriculture and first city states 7-10,000 years ago.

Ever more perverse, violent, and inexcusable as our technology grows, its onset saw the beginnings of class, narrow social constructs, selfishness, and justification for the suffering of the many for the 'privileged' few. The accumulation of things began to define as much as isolate us from each other in our pursuit of prestige, title, wealth, profit. In return we get more wealth, more titles, more things - but at the expense of meaningful life.  It is a soulless, empty, hateful way to live. 

If people could understand the truth of their reality through comprehension of this one picture - we could finally begin to usher in a new age. We are all part of an immensity we cannot really understand, except as it humbles. To know that humility, to let it strip away your meaningless constructs, is to know the fragility of life, the understanding that we are all in this together against immense odds - is to know love for all life. We are all one  family of life.

Empty Words

War is insane.
How many lives lost to have become numb to those words?
100 million? 200 million?

For their sacrifice...
Soldiers do not sacrifice their lives
Those that died wanted to live. They so wanted to live.
They were murdered, as they murdered.

Innocent children, women, the frail, the elderly - ‘collateral damage’
Jesus Christ.

Your blood soaked flag of imagined meaning.
How much suffering with each flutter?

War is not glorious. War is grotesquely, horribly, cruel.
Babies blown to bits. Hold that image as they march by, flag high.
‘Necessary’ evil is still evil. And it has always been a choice.

Open your eyes to your family of humankind, adrift on a small lonely planet immersed in an unbelievably hostile universe. And then, open your heart.

Choose peace.


His family, home, and any meaning to his life  - gone.

What Were We Thinking?

Over time it will become clear Trump was never anything but a cheap, lying, thug.

Those who supported him will one day be heard saying ‘What was I thinking’? Much as German civilians said after WWII.

Let me be the first to tell these future ex-Trumpies - fuck you.

It’s a Miracle

Jesus Christ lived in the middle east 2000 years ago. 
And yet, he’s white. 

Praise the lord and hallelujah!!

Trump's Lessons

Donald Trump says he's exonerated by Robert Mueller. Donald Trump is a liar, a cheat, a selfish, narcissistic hater, and just plain petty thug. No investigation is ever going to change that.

What we can learn from Donald Trump will not be found in investigations or indictments. The real lessons of Donald Trump go to our collective conscience as a species and should serve as warning to us all.

If we don't fundamentally change as a species - intellectually, ethically, spiritually - we are not going to make it.

Underachieving Gods

There is no reason to believe that an intelligence capable of creating a computer simulation of an entire universe can't come to exist.

Assuming 'real' universes exist for billions of years it is likely this has already occurred.

In fact it is more likely we exist in such a simulation than in a ‘real’ universe given how easy simulations would be to create as compared to ‘real’ universes.

If our universe is in fact such a simulation all I can say is that its creator is one hell of an underachiever.
