I learn from Logan Rideout that this is Bill of Rights Day, the 219th anniversary of the ratification of the Bill of Rights. Says Logan, “The Founding Fathers understood that when left to its own devices, government will eagerly trample the individual God given rights of the people and that it was their duty as enlightened leaders to protect at all cost the humanity of law and the freedom of the individual.”
I’m not an “enlightened leader,” at least by public acclamation, but this peon taxpayer employed Amendment Five to take my case to the U. S. Supreme Court. We can either fly with eagles or fall into the abyss. I don’t see the Bill of Rights as a Muslim views them. I see them as my personal rights, and not only that but my personal responsibility to protect at all costs.
Glenn Beck of Fox News pointed out that the stages of grief begin with anger. The nation has never been more divided and angry. This is because the American people have been looking to “enlightened leaders” for their answers, not to the Bill of Rights as a personal responsibility. Putting myself in the place of an “enlightened leader,” I would conjure up a solution for the problems we face, knowing that there would be much disagreement. I would force society to adhere to my dictates, by whatever means it took, knowing that the end would justify the means. As a consequence of “enlightened leaders,” what we see is not a pretty picture.
Beck gives us many examples of what is wrong and what we need to do as individuals, but he has never brought to our attention the subtle workings of the universe. Beck, taught by “enlightened leaders,”is in the limelight. I’ve learned from personal experience. I’m not a lawyer but I did something most lawyers can’t do. Because I know the law, I appeared before the Supreme Court. I remained a peon taxpayer, out of sight, out of mind, a nobody from nowheresville.
Beck speaks of Thomas Jefferson and the self-evident truth that we are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights. Noble words, but the self-evident truth he doesn’t explain is that our Creator is by reason and nature a total rejection of supernatural revelation. God, as told by Beck, is a wholly manmade concoction, and meant to control you. Fine for Beck but not for me, or for that matter, Jefferson. The view held by Jefferson was that we are meant by our Creator to be inner directed; government is here to serve our needs, not to direct us, and the same for the church. In no way do we have “enlightened leaders.” It’s a Muslim idea.
External authority—Sharia Law—naturally puts the cart before the horse because otherwise you would be your own authority. The only reason we need external authority is because we always have. Actually, it goes against your nature. You were not created to jump through authority’s hoops. We are leaving the Age of Pisces and external control, entering the Age of Aquarius. Aquarians are self-directed.
Deepak Chopra, M.D. brought to my attention that the ancient sages of India reasoned so is the microcosm so is the macrocosm. Modern science, by examination of the subatomic world, the aspects of matter, observes that we humans have the power to turn light waves into tiny packets of energy called photons. Photons are directed by the eye to the brain, processed, and we see a tree. Electrons are processed in a TV set and we see a moving image of something taking place on the other side of the planet. By magic, we manufacture atomic bombs. We have the power to direct the material. Yep, seeing is believing, but reality is not the world we see, my friends. Our material progress has far outpaced our spiritual growth. The last thing we need is authorities and their ungodly laws. They are leaving us in danger of annihilating ourselves.
Being retired and nothing better to do with my time, I decided to write my memoirs. We live mostly in the present. By looking back at my past, events began to connect. My wife Karen had taken an interest in astrology and excited my curiosity. In Astrologer’s Handbook, Karen had placed my initials next to “Saturn trine Pluto.” I read that this trine “gives the natives the ability to understand the laws by which subtle forces are organized,” and that it “favors those who work in such fields as physics, the occult, magic, astrology, or systems of meditation.” What a coincidence!
It was amazing the way things were connecting. I was writing my memoirs when something came to mind I wanted to look up in the Bible. Karen’s Scofield Reference Bible had a large Concordance. For some unknown reason, I read Scofield’s Introduction and underlined a couple of his thoughts. (1) “The saying that ‘anything may be proved by the Bible’ is both true and false—true if isolated passages are used; utterly false if the whole divine revelation is in view.” (2) “The Dispensations are distinguished, exhibiting the majestic, progressive order of the divine dealings of God with humanity, ‘the increasing purpose’ which runs through and links together the ages, from the beginning of the life of man to the end in eternity. Augustine said: ‘Distinguish the ages and the Scriptures harmonize.’”
With Scofield’s above mentioned thoughts on my mind, I happened to run across The Physics of Consciousness: The Quantum Mind and the Meaning of Life by Evan Harris Walker, who was a brain doctor and quantum physicist. He recently passed on. Dr. Walker, under “A God for Tomorrow,” wrote: “The observer interacts with matter. Consciousness, the substance of this newfound reality that defines the observer, has fundamental existence. It is the quantum mind that is the basic of reality.”
Speaking of a God for tomorrow, in Astrologer’s Handbook, under “Aquarius,” the sign of brotherhood and fraternity, key words, humanitarianism, independence, originality, I was deep in these thoughts when Karen called me from her office to tell me to turn on the TV. I saw the World Trade Center collapsing, under Muslim law, not God’s law. In saying “in earth as it is in heaven” (in the Lord’s Prayer) as Jesus predicted, if you want God to be in charge of your life, look within and find the divine constitution for righteous government. Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount was pure law, no in-betweens, direct from our Maker and Keeper. God is not Muslim, Christian, or Jew. How far down do we go before we become aware of God’s law?
In writing my memoirs, my thoughts went back to World War II. I was on the high seas heading for the invasion of Japan’s main island when Truman gave the order to drop the atom bombs. World War II ended. My life was spared. I recalled my anger in 1975. My business enterprise of 25 years was on the rocks and my wife was divorcing me. I blamed it all on the lying frauds in Washington. The IRS had mistakenly put me on the street in the name of tax. World War II didn’t solve our problems, not by a long shot. The United States is turning Nazi.
It came to me that my life was spared for a reason. Government takes from the individual because it has that power. That is hardly a duty. It is up to us, individually, to solve our problems. It is not the government’s duty to make dependents of us by taking from the rich and giving to the poor. Self- serving politicians have lawlessly rejected the Constitution and taken it upon themselves, according to the legal judgments of frauds on the bench, to rule in light of the current needs, as government sees the need. Hitler was legal. When I read the Constitution, and felt that voices of the past were speaking to me, encouraging me to act. My anger turned into a bigger than life calling.
I went to sea. Miracles occurred. I left the sea in 1977 captain of my ship. In the year 2010, at age 85, if my life could be any better I don’t know how. It wasn’t redistribution of our national energy that made my life good. It was the power potential that exists in every individual that made my life good. Go ahead and see it the way a Muslim sees it if you must. I feel compelled to tell it the way I see it.
America is looking at hard times ahead. Take what you are told with a grain of salt. Beck was at rock bottom. Beck tells you what he did that turned his life around. I tell you want I did. Do what Beck says. Don’t take it from him, or me. Learn for yourself who you are and what you are about. You will be astonished at the power you possess if you believe that God’s kingdom is in you, not in your religion. Instead of worrying about what is to become of you, believe it is on earth as in heaven. The sooner you spread the word that we are our brother’s keeper, the sooner we cross the threshold to our intended future.
