The Unanswered Question

There is a certain order to the universe. It began with atoms and conscious awareness. As far as we know, humans are the end product of conscious awareness. In the beginning, says the Bible, when God made man, God said, “Let us make man in our image” (Gen.1:26).

America has never been more divided. Don’t be bitter. Wise up! There are those who insist that the law should be for the good of all and those who insist that the individual comes first under the law. America’s original Constitution placed the individual first. America became the most prosperous nation on earth. Currently, government has spun out of control, all over the good of all opposing the individual coming first. It’s a Mexican standoff. Too much is demanded of the individual for the good of all. History’s record proves that the former fails every time and the latter wins.

The courts have watered down America’s original Constitution with “civil rights,” such as the right to health care. Why not a right to food, clothing, and shelter? Why not a right to a haircut? Why not a right to have others serve me in all of my desires? This is the demand of unions. Unions are pouring millions into getting Democrats elected. Under one-man rule, the dictator of “rights” passes out goodies to those who serve him and forces by law hardships on his enemies. Never in history has the law been for the good of all. For the good of all equates with might makes right. America is heading for the law of the jungle.

From the Internet’s Wikipedia: Sociologist Robert K. Merton is credited with coining the expression "self-fulfilling prophecy." In his book Social Theory and Social Structure, Merton gives as a feature of the self-fulfilling prophecy:

“The self-fulfilling prophecy is, in the beginning, a false definition of the situation evoking a new behavior which makes the original false conception come 'true'. This specious validity of the self-fulfilling prophecy perpetuates a reign of error. For the prophet will cite the actual course of events as proof that he was right from the very beginning.”

“In other words, a prophecy declared as truth when it is actually false may sufficiently influence people, either through fear or logical confusion, so that their reactions ultimately fulfill the once-false prophecy.”

The Founding Fathers wrote a Constitution that put the individual first under the law. But the slavery issue caused them, for the good of all, to allow for it. The nation was divided over the slavery issue. It finally came to a head with the Dred Scott case. The Taney Court ruled, for the good of all, that Scott was the property of a white man—no different under the law than a mule or a cow. The nation’s blood boiled over this ruling, finally to bring about the Civil War. The issue: for the good of all or the individual comes first.

Social Security is a prime example of the self-fulfilling prophecy. It began with something for practically nothing, the usual pyramid game. My father was self-employed. Self-employment came under Social Security when my father was 63 years old. He paid a couple of hundred dollars a year for two years and retired. He lived to age 94. For under $500 put in the pot, my father took out $200,000. It was called the New Deal—$200,000 for $500. I’m 85 years old. I’ve taken out far more than I’ve put in the Social Security pot. Not so for present day contributors. In spite of the far greater amount they are putting in, the Social Security fund is going bankrupt. Medicare is going bankrupt. For the American people, the New Deal is the same old deal: cards under the table.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, on ObamaCare, cards under the table, said we will learn what it is about after the bill passes. We are learning. We don’t like ObamaCare. Those in Congress who voted for ObamaCare are not mentioning it in their campaigning. They are concentrating on personal attacks against their opponents. They talk about the Bush Administration’s mistakes, and if we want those mistakes back again. Bush was all for the duty of government to the individual, the Neal Deal turned into “compassionate conservatism.” Two wrongs don’t make a right.

We humans, as far as we know, are the most observant of all life. On the quantum mind and the meaning of life, here’s what quantum physicist Even Harris Walker reports in The Physics of Consciousness: “It is consciousness that began everything, that grows matter into a universe of existence; it is consciousness that unifies and constrains all of us as individual beings; it is consciousness that orders space and time out of a chaos of random events.” Says Walker: “We exist as something more than pieces of matter. In the development of quantum theory, the observer emerges as a co-equal in the foundry of creation.” If you go through life not seeing past the end of your nose, guess what?

Here’s what Astrologer’s Handbook tells us. First, let me remind you that in everyone’s astrological chart are negative and positive influences. Herein, I’m referring to the positive influences of Aquarius and the negative influences of Pisces.

Under Aquariuis:

“Individuals born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity have as their symbol the water-bearer, who spills out to mankind the life-force and spiritual energy. . . Aquarians have eccentric temperaments and are determined and stubborn. . . There is no affectation or snobbery in the Aquarian personality but a dislike of spurious imitation and hypocrisy in any form. Aquarians operate as equals among equals. However, they are not dependent on their environments for their security, because they derive this from being in the company of others. . . Their pursuits are more intellectual then physical. . . They do their best work with others or with organizations that attempt to bring about some ideal. In such pursuits, their excellent memory, creativity, knowledge, love of freedom, and humanitarianism find their outlet.”

As for the good of all idea, here is what Astrologer’s Handbook tells us under “Pisces.”

“Pisces is a sensitive sign and those born under it are extremely responsive to the thoughts of others. They unconsciously absorb the ideas and mental outlook of those around them. They desperately want to do the right thing, but as a rule they do not have strong willpower. Therefore, they are easily influenced by external factors. They must learn to stand alone and face the unknown with a simple faith.”

“They are not combative. Their aversion to struggle often makes them indecisive in thinking and acting They will generally suffer injury rather than fight for their rights. When their supply of patience is exhausted, however, they can become so provoked that it is impossible to calm them down. Pisceans can be stubborn and allow no one to reason with them.” You got to observe, folks, or end in a snit.

We are now leaving the Age of Pisces. It began with the birth of the Christ child. The symbol of Pisces, two attached fish swimming in opposite directions is apropos. Hello Pisces. Come to the Tea Party. Compared to the Age of Aquarius’ symbol, the water-bearer to humanity, and Jesus’ promise to return, there could be something to Astrology. It is older than the oldest religion.

Nothing in life is certain, but guess which is to be in your future, inalienable rights or for the good of all? To you young folks, I thank you very much for your contribution to my welfare, but don’t be sucked into the nutty political notion that you can put little in the pot and take out a lot. You are the victim of a colossal fraud. Chance favors the prepared mind. Your guess on this issue can be most important to your future.
