Organizing the Decline of Democracy With Multi-Culturism

A democratic government exists to represent the proprietary interests of a majority-that is of a coherent culture with shared goals. Historically the Untied States benefited from the lack of vast social organizations and social hierarchies that brought Europe into countless wars and religious organizations to side with governments in sectarian conflict. The frontier that Frederick Jackson Turner wrote of as being formative of American democracy brought the benefit of preventing the formation of vast social organizations in the era before mass electronic communications. Time and technological development would end that era of course.

Large social organizations arise to repress individualism. In an age of multi-cultural social fracture with the concentrations of wealth through preferred network locations democracy is withering away replaced by the large social organization phenomena of prior centuries in new forms. A democracy made of individuals with enough similarities and with representatives from the people that accurately represent their shared class interests is no more. A multi-cultural globalism with religious and corporate hierarchies along with the royal trappings of international political organizations render a T.V. watching organization man, woman or person of transitioning gender more of a spectator of democracy, government, church and a tool of corporate business rather than a peer. The efforts of Congressman Ryan and Democrats of a radical globalist agenda to flood the United States with millions of illegal aliens after making the existing millions of illegal aliens in the U.S.A. legal may be the final nail in the battered body of democracy. The U.S.A. is developing a decoherent polity without the common interests required for a meaningful democratic environment. It isn’t remarkable that a dumbed down State Department consistently seeks to foist a utopian democracy upon nations abroad with radically polarized cultures no more capable of democracy than any nation where organizational splintering of a crazed degree prevails.

In human history the rise of large social organizations seems inevitable and it requires the grace of God to provide new lands without the repression of individuals by sundry organizations. Mankind s a social animal and forms collectives to rule or consume, worship a secular god or provide more bread. Allegiance to organizations brings strife and competition for dominance, wars and rumors of wars arise and individualism becomes an anachronism. Little provision is made to keep the U.S. Government from being led by flunkies that in decades couldn’t pay off a national debt, win a war decisively and at low cost, secure the Mexican border from illegal immigration or prevent the going away concentration of wealth that buys rule through proxies over the masses of proles.

Consistent Histories Issues With Anomalous Time Travel in a G.R. Universe Paradigm

In general relativity space-time is a necessary coefficient. To travel through space near light speed means to experience the passage of time slower than in non-accelerated space-time. That isn’t surprising; time is generally a change in the configuration of mass. With less mass such as has an elementary particle there is less to change. A photon is a photon, a neutrino just a neutrino with maybe a quark or two about it and not much else. Massless particles often travel at light speed, yet that’s just their own existential space and speed in relation to larger clumps of steady state mass.

So to convert mass into photons that are massless and accelerate them to the speed of light is a dream for physicists and erstwhile explorers of other star systems who could as photons travel at the speed of light over immense distances of space that would take a normal rocket ship thousands of years and planetfulls of fuel. It isn’t practical to accelerate mass to light speed because it would encounter the gravitational field super fast and develop counterproductive increase of mass requiring more fuel. Nearing light speed mass and fuel values would become infinite.

If gravity isn’t a field though could mass accelerated to light speed with a photon engine (science fiction) avoid gravity with gravity-Teflon spray? If it could maybe after spraying on gravity-deet what about the other fields that exist in mass such as the electro-weak or nuclear force between quarks? Would those fields be changed at all accelerating through the gravity field, the Higgs field or whatever uncertainty field exists out there and lose their relative condition of decoherence and consistent history locally that gives them a sense of who they are?

If there is only one space-time growing, expanding or whathaveyou as a field decohered from a coherent and uncertain uniform senselessness as a Higgs field and time is only a description of the entangled and decohered steady state of the evolving mass that it is, even if that mass is monistic viewed in the big picture then the past does not exist except perhaps as an image-for-other-viewers from afar traveling at the slowish speed of light. Time travel to the past isn’t possible though the entire Universe could be a recycling thought of God’s that may or may not be set into motion-as needed I would guess if that’s how it is).

Some believe though that if the entire Universe is something like a wave in a two-dimensional ocean juxtaposed with other flat-screen dimension membranes it might be possible to extract oneself from the present wave, relocate to another membrane Universe and reinsert oneself, or one’s mapped steady-state configuration back into the past making new waves in the process I would guess (again).

It seems sort of unreasonable to think that mapping one’s mass configuration and transferring it in some way outside the steady state mass entangled field to relocate in a hypothetical elsewhen would not add or subtract mass from the Universe- so such things might require careful balance and compensation or not as the case may be.

Well, the general relativity of the steady-state Universe that Einstein developed his theoretical parameters about are largely a way of measuring or regarding space-time changes and relationships within it. The field of space-time has local and non-local components and the relationships of mass with local and non-local fields of which it is formed might be malleable or subject to non-standard reformation with the power of intelligent thought that would allow light speed or faster-than-light-speed travel, if one should actually find it beneficial to do so.

Perhaps physicists down the road will discover new ways to quantify, shape, reshape, combine and/or relocate or reconstitute values of mass clumps along with attendant human mind within the Higgs field or whatever other meta-field of coherence and decoherence may exist. That seems like a challenging quantum mapping project especially since keeping consistent histories of a meta-field with exfiltrations of contingent field (post hoc) parts of it relocated elsewhere would probably affect the integrity of a meta-field.

State of the Illegal Union Speech Preview; Al Qaeda & Taliban to Come Out of the Shadows?

“There are three classes in America; the 1% in the shining city on the hill, government socialists with a Utopian vision of class supremacy, and the class of pinball stooges of the firsttwo classes. As President I am of the millionaire-billionaire class as well as the government socialist-utopian supremacy class and work to help them when not to busy playing golf, the pinballs need to roll for themselves." 

Thus begins the opening of tonight’s state of the Illegal Union address.  Leakers of the President’s 2014 State of the Union address informed us of the President’s bold plan to expropriate Emperor Domitian’s style and name himself a King Canute Emperor of Ice-Cream. With the power to vanquish 17 trillion dollars of debt with electronic instant payoff via the Federal Reserve and the ability to reform economics by raising the minimum wage to an index of 20 dollars less than the highest wage he also plans to bring illegal aliens out of the shadows to increase homeland security with green cards-a cruel racist double entendre of irony paying back the gringos truckin lorry’s yore over-the-border.

Details of the illegal alien to spiffy citizen plan via gringo card provided by the leaker known as M reveal that cheap labor will still be available after former illegal workers move into union labor and truck driving jobs, airport security and the Harvard Law School since without a no illegal entry physical security infrastructure another 12 million illegals will arrive as soon as the economy improves to take the 2 dollah and hour jobs in the middle class homes of Democrats doing maid service, construction, lawn mowing etc.

Since there are only 92 million Americans not working presently the labor shortage for the corporate world is plain. Taking up President Ronald St. Reagan’s immigration reform policy since his tax cuts policy worked so well already- being recognized in Bush II form as one of the President’s main accomplishments, advanced Democratic strategist thought recognized that the better way to assure the security of the rich would be to bring Al Qaeda and Taliban workers out of the shadows and into the U.S.A. through the illegal alien to spiffy citizen route. If Al Qaeda and the Taliban have gringo cards in sufficient quantity then and only then would it be possible to secure the Mexican border with a border defense zone of moats, berms and patrols led by experts at illegal entry.

In reply to the Canute Emperor of Ice Crème’s speech the leakers of Senator Rock Battle’s reply say that he will decry European reluctance to pay and play their fair share in volunteer wars around the globe. He noted they aren’t even fanning the flames of incipient much and generally aren’t good N.A.T.O. partners. We recognize there is a certain logic to Battle’s thought; if Europeans won’t impoverish themselves in countless unnecessary wars they won’t become poor and have nouveau reich countries war in Europe down the road. So what then is the point of N.A.T.O.?

On the Future of Tablets & E-book Platforms

Recently buying an e-book reader to discovering turning the page with a touch of a finger, adjusting the print size and storing numerous books in the same platform the surprise to a dedicated paperback reader was substantial; the new platform for a book is that much better. So I wondered where that will lead in the future. Blogger and other web sites may develop touch screen user templates for turning pages and communicating with other users on-line or simply for creating their own personalized screen ensemble. E-book readers may work like tablets with that feature on numerous sites.

There are several obvious trends for e-book readers that will lead to significant yet predictable developments.

1)    They will be cheaper and transparent like a piece of Plexiglas

2)    They will have a terabyte of storage

3)   Multi-purpose solar power recharging will be doped into the clear structural material along with memory

4)   Natural language programming with blended in recombination of image-icons with three-dimensional structural schematic cognition will let users design new apps with touch screen and voice construction. Inventions are largely synthetic recombination of disparate ideas into a new form anyway, computer programming languages too will move toward exploiting that process with touch screens.

5)   E-book readers will turn a page on command such as saying the word page

6)   E-book and tablet servo-unit holders from little solar powered tripods to mobile brain low-information robots will replace that crumpled shirt an e-book reader is resting on at a perfect angle for reading from a sleeping bag on a climbing expedition. If a robotic Sherpa will climb Mt. Everest in the next decade and a robotic wheelchair permit the first quadriplegic ascent of the tallest mountain on Earth with 20 years it is certain that all purpose e-book and tablet holders that change angle on command will appear within a year or two. I wouldn’t mind owning stock in that start up.

Was B. Obama a Gyp or Did the Crats Get What they Deserve?

In a way President Obama accomplished about everything a Republican of the upper class might want during his six years in office.  it is difficult to believe that either Senator McCain or Gov. Romney could have accomplished so much for the benefit of the 1%. President Obama made the Bush II tax cuts for the rich permanent, raised taxes on young healthy workers a few hundred percent through de trop Obamacare insurance law, refused to halt illegal immigration across the Mexican border that is one of two causes of low wage and high unemployment for Americans and never got anything like clean coal on line. He agitated for green cards for tens of millions of illegal aliens so they can finish off male labor related unions once and for all, made homosexual marriage-a goal of some of the decadent rich a priority who may have developed some sort of Terabyte single sex mitosis theory of revolution, worked tirelessly against private school vouchers that would allow something like local democratic choice rather than mandatory indoctrination by public school globalists to help restore some competition to corporatism that has taken over Main Street etc.

The Administration has warned Americans overseas not to appear nationalistic at all in order to conform with his campaign reluctance to wear an American flag pin on his suit. At least he has sent a couple of warships to hover of the Olympic Games in Russia perhaps hoping that will help our athletes get higher scores. If they require sudden evacuation from the games obvious the Russians couldn't help needing to rely on oxcarts over muddy trails for transportation.

The President so far has set an all-time record for the most citizens not working (92 million), has become an outspoken advocate for legal dope and seldom neglects spending time on the golf course or in the company of entertainment-class millionaires that provide such cover for elites concentrating wealth on Wall Street without producing anything material. Since the broadcast media is owned by the rich and/or run by state socialist the President has neglected reforming FCC management of broadcast wavelengths that would bring them out of the upper Neolithic era of the 1950s and 60s into a modern context with tens of millions of high-tech concentrated broadcast slices allocated to local citizens with new forms of digital receivers. With the broadcast media run by the rich and socialists while public schools produce a sort of thoughtless, acquiescent prole-student for globalists to select from for symbols democracy is slowly dying along with the robust health of the planetary ecosphere.

With immediate concerns of 17 trillion dollars of public debt steadily increasing with an unrealistic failure to reform capitalist procedures along non-corporatist, low entropy nationalist priorities with an expanded V.A. Hospital system integrated with the nation’s constellation of low income and homeless health care clinics to provide no-cost care for the broke instead of Obamacare that ossifies market competition in a theoretical misunderstanding of business reality the libertine party is getting what it deserves.

On Mass Social Micro-Management of Health Insurance & Foreign Policy

The question is can failed Soviet government management models it work in 21^st century America? Is it practical for the U.S. Government to act as a monopoly health insurance exchange brokerage without breaking the U.S. health care system? Can U.S. foreign policy impose a placid democratic government on Syria or any other nation through force when its own perfect system of corporatism with 17 trillion dollars of public debt, decaying ecosphere etc required more than 200 years to evolve? I believe the answer is no.

Many Americans learned that just two forms of government exist; communism and capitalism and that they are mutually exclusive. They were wrong. It is plain that a third way of corporatism has supplanted each bringing the worst of each system along the course of economic evolution toward Unitarian godless global oligarchy under the mindlessness of media moderators of Plutocrats.

While it is true that the 85 richest people on Earth has as much wealth as the 3.5 billion poorest it is also true that like the Allan Parson’s song lyric ‘I really wouldn’t be like you’ reduces the severity of the statistic since not everyone signs off willingly on globalist economic policy that concentrates wealth. Yet the defenders of networked capitalism concentrating wealth through preferred network advantages that dominate capital employ the straw man of socialism as the alternative. What would George Washington have said about contemporary networked capitalism?

An interview with George Washington...

“Mr. President, what do you think of corporatism and the concentration of wealth through expert computer program guided electronic trading of Wall Street?”

“Well Ted, I am all for that. Capitalism was created to concentrate wealth and power for the few. If they live around the globe and control the U.S. economy like puppeteers that’s fine. The people never had any write to run their own lives to start with.”

“Mr. President, what about foreign control of U.S. politics?”

“I like to think that we’re above all that in political elites. We don’t like to get our hand dirty in my eponymous village now do we? WE need a king to let us know our place but have to settle for Rhodes scholars. If wealth and power are globally controlled it will spare the people the burden if thinking for themselves and developing worry lines.”

“So what about the environment? Some think that the right role of government is t defend the people from environmental and social threats, insults and decay.”

“Ask yourself Ted, how the environment can be in decay if the right elites are managing it from the best offices with the finest furnishing on the planet? Is that reasonable? There is no need for environmental defense, and the people shouldn’t expect to own anything in the future anyway hence no need for their defense; they won’t have anything that needs defending.”

“What about their rights?”

“What rights are left Ted? The people realize themselves in being people as a class. They have class consciousness as consumers and unconscious as consumers of alcohol, marijuana and so forth after the game is over.”

“So you aren’t for reform of capitalism?”

“Ted these are really nice questions. Go suck a lemon is still good advice. I will say for your edification though that if Adam Smith had wanted reform and not to let the King run the economy he would have said so. St. Smith was canonized and the grail of derivatives trading, arbitrage, dark pools, LBOs Hedge funds and tax cuts require true faith. Heretics may be permanently downsized and outsourced.”

Siegfried's Article on Gell-Man & Hartle's Work on Quantum Consistent Histories & Decoherence

Tom Siegfried wrote a good post on Gell-Mann and Hartle's work on consistent histories and decoherence. 

https://www.sciencenews.org/blog/context/gell-mann-hartle-spin-quantum-narrative-about-reality

I commented...

Decoherence and consistent histories remind me that in a sense the prospects for variable quanta in a monistic field are epiphenomenal temporally speaking, so what if the Higgs field membrane is itself just one state or matrix of a more complex, complete system?

White House Seeks Ethnic, Religious & Economic Purge to Transitional Government

It takes a lot of power to form a transitional government that purges another government. The Obama administration, the prime revolution organizer for the Syrian conflict appears to have confidence in its power to fulfill a racial, ethnic, religious and economic purge of Syria
.

The White House is demanding that Iran support the ouster of the Syrian Government and that  sign aboard the unconditional surrender to fomentation of a transitional Syrian government team. Those multi-revolutionary party talks in Switzerland have the support of United Nations Secretary Ban Ki-moon. The question of if a government should be purged and its population subject to years of civil strife was evidently decided affirmatively a priori by the Obama foreign policy team some years ago. One imagines the temptation for a global ruling class to snatch up a national target of opportunity exists.

Perhaps an international team should convene to study the issue of formulating criteria for purging lawful governments through protracted external support for internal civil strife in order to form a more humanitarian method of purging governments that won't go quietly.

After more than two years of stimulating terrorism, revolution and civil war against the Syrian Government the United States Government has advanced the agenda to including or excluding Iran from taking part in the 'talks' on stipulating that there should be a transitional government instead of support for the existing government of Syria. The American Democratic Party prefers war as foreign policy through the machinations of other military players and perhaps the resurgence of Al Qaeda an other fundamentally terror organizations in the middle east is a fruit of the Obama administration method of Arab springboarding regime change without a good idea of what will follow-a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy procedures since the Bush II administration.

On Paul's 2nd letter to the Thessalonian Church

Lois Berkhof wrote an analysis of the 2nd Epistle to the Thessalonians. Here is my summary of his report mirroring Berkhof’s outlining method...

Content- Paul wrote this elegant, well balanced letter with three chapters each of which comprises a self-standing unit. Berkhof finds that the epistle “naturally falls into three parts”.

1) “Introduction, ch. 1.

This comprises Paul’s usual greeting followed by emendations and edification with practical concerns implicitly serving doctrinal and even prophetic points. Berkhof divides the chapter one into two sections.

2) “Instruction respecting the Parousia, ch. 2.” Berkof divides the second chapter in two sections.; 1-12 and 13-17. Paul warns of the deceptions of the anti-Christ (aka. son of perdition) and reassures the church that they shall be fine.

3) “Practical Exhortations, ch. 3.” Berkhof divides chapter three into four sections. Somewhat neatly Berkhof noted Paul’s structure as two sections each in the preceding two sections followed by four in the last chapter of the epistle. The ancients sometimes used veritably a poetic structure with prose since historically prose originated as poetry and he was writing to Greeks. It is good Paul didn’t use dactylic hexameter as did the Homeric poets.

Paul instructs the faithful to keep working and be not idle, to withdraw from the disorderly, do what the Apostle commanded and beware of false instruction.

Characteristics- Paul’s description of characteristics of events leading to the apocalypse and the second coming of Jesus Christ are the central point the epistle Berkhof finds. Berkhof points out the arrival of ‘the man of sin’ or anti-Christ that need appear to lead the unsaved, anti-Christian worldly forces prior to the conclusion of this generation of mankind living on Earth.

“1. The main characteristic of this letter is found in the apocalyptic passage, 2:1-12. In these verses, that contain the most essential part of the Epistle, Paul speaks as a prophet, revealing to his beloved church that the return of Christ will be preceded by a great final apostacy and by the revelation of the man of sin, the son of perdition who, as the instrument of satan, will deceive men, so that they accept the lie and are condemned in the great day of Christ. II Thessalonians, no doubt, was written primarily for the sake of this instruction.”

Berkhof’s paradigm of analysis for the leader of the world of the lost is itself an illumination of the present times we live in. Evidently the forms of existing political rule such as that of the Roman Empire would need to disappear in order not to conflict with a unified global empowerment of the anti-Christ. Obviously one might discern a present trend toward economic globalism and networking that could develop over time into a de facto planetary unified economic and indirectly political power that the anti-Christ could find a convenient stage for putting him or herself/itself into power as the pseudo-omnipotent one perhaps assisted by bionic appendages, steroids, nano-bot healing from wounds and nano-computer-enhanced synapses and intellect plugged into a quantum computer. When Jesus Christ, the Lord of the Universe appears it will probably be historically necessary that he appears to end a perpetual dictatorship of absolute corrupt power in comparison to which contemporary corrupt power is trivial.

There are two additional characteristics of the epistle that Berkhof notes. One is the practical and direct reinforcement of the persecuted church and the second regards the language of the epistle that has several unique words. Elsewhere Berkhof and others have noted that this letter bears substantial content with the prior letter. In a brief letter to the same church congregation accentuating some key points that isn’t too unusual.

Authorship

Berkhof writes; “The external testimony for the authenticity of this Epistle is just as strong as that for the genuineness of the first letter. Marcion has it in his canon, the Muratorian Fragment names it, and it is also found in the old Latin and Syriac Versions. From the time of Irenaeus it is regularly quoted as a letter of Paul, and Origen and Eusebius claim that it was universally received in their time. The Epistle itself claims to be the work of Paul, 1: 1; and again in 3:17”

Composition

Occasion and Purpose- “The persecution of the Thessalonians still continued and had probably increased in force, and in some way the impression had been created that the day of the Lord was at hand. This led on the one hand to feverish anxiety, and on the other, to idleness. Hence the apostle deemed it necessary to write a second letter to the Thessalonians. The purpose of the writer was to encourage the sorely pressed church; to calm the excitement by pointing out that the second advent of the Lord could not be expected immediately, since the mystery of lawlessness had to develop first and to issue.”-Berkhof

Time and Place- Berkhof’s best estimate is the middle of A.D. 53

Canonical Significance

Berkhof concludes his analysis of the second epistle to the church of Thessalonica writing that “It is quite evident, however, that Polycarp used the Epistle. Moreover it has a place in the canon of Marcion, is mentioned among the Pauline letters in the Muratorian Fragment, and is contained in the old Latin and Syriac Versions. Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria, Tertullian and others since their time, quote it by name. The great permanent value of this Epistle lies in the fact that it corrects false notions regarding the second advent of Christ, notions that led to indolence and disorderliness. We are taught in this Epistle that the great day of Christ will not come until the mystery of iniquity that is working in the world receives its full development, and brings forth the son of perdition who as the very incarnation of satan will set himself against Christ and his Church.”

This letter of Paul’s is an expression of the apocalyptic criterion following those remarks of The Lord such as given in the Gospel according to Matthew. The timing of the Apostle’s martyrdom perhaps in 67 A.D., three years before the destruction of Jerusalem, seems meaningful regarding God’s structuring of history. The work of the Apostle to the Gentiles was complete and the seat of the old covenant destroyed, yet it to would be resurrected from the ashes.

The Lord was crucified circa 33 A.D. , the Apostle Paul was martyred about 33 years later and John’s Revelation published perhaps 33 years after that. The dating of the composition of the Revelation is inexact yet it was noted that Emperor Domitian popularized banishments and John was banished to Patmos. Domitian was emperor from A.D. 81 to 96, and John may have been released from the prison isle after the death of Domitian (he was murdered for oppressing the aristocrats and his wife expedited his death) with his vision ready to be set down in print for the edification of the church.

The Apostle Paul spent three years in Ephesus and it was to Ephesus that he sent his ‘spiritual son’ Timothy to instruct the congregation in the right way. Paul’s apocalyptic remarks (2:1-12) undoubtedly were encountered by the Disciple and Evangelist John who lived in Ephesus (incld, Patmos nearby) for a quarter century until his own death in old age circa 101 A.D. John may have developed his thoughts about the apocalypse for some time, especially with the recent experience of the destruction of Jerusalem and his own exile. His vision of the Lord’s return apparently encompassed multiple time paradigms. Even the end of the Eastern Roman Empire and of Constantinople as the capitol of an Orthodox neo-theocratic state brought Ephesus into the rule of a non-Christian theocratic imperium, one that would be the foe of Jews as nationalists and occupier of the Temple Mount for something approaching 700 years starting in the 15^th century. Well, there is much history one may adduce to illustrate the relationship of temporal Earthly history to teleogical constructions I would venture to guess. The Apostle Paul in his letters to the Thessalonicans did help set the stage for the following Revelation of John.

Berkhof writes a little more on the enduring value of the letter to the church.
