Britain Can Bridge the Widening Gap Between Rich & Poor

Britain has an unsustainable economy inherited and standard of living inherited from the somewhat defunct British Empire. Transitioning to a sustainable economic foundation requires living within one's means ecologically speaking. Britain has thus transformed itself into investing in foreign nations and promoting globalism in order to skim wealth from everywhere. The United States has preponderantly followed that course too. As a result wealth is concentrated and the rich don't want to share with the majority. In other words everything is a.f.up'd.

The basic problem is that of original sin; it is inherent in thermodynamic processes. The 2nd law of thermodynamics brings human organisms to consume and desire to reproduce and have power. Jesus Christ makes it possible to transcend that paradigm. God visited the paramecium population in a manner of speaking to provide a Jacob's ladder to God in eternity. The worldly body must perish along with the Universe eventually yet saved souls acceptable through faith in God may continue with God beyond the end.

Since original sin has a variety of economic system's applications for non-renewable economics without rational recognition of non-renewable criteria and criteria for individual human needs concatenated various economic systems are always falling behind. They fail to serve all of the population. Mass economic systems tend toward maturation as organization clones with hierarchical trophic orders. Wall Street and the Soviet Communist Party each were elite collectives controlling the allocation of wealth and resources. Better value theories are required if mass human needs are to be satisfactorily met. The problem really isn't in means of production or who owns that so much as of scale and of how much material each human needs to exist to live and create.

One might set standards for how much non-renewable mass individuals could transform with entropy added annually and calculate a fair share for all on Earth. Obviously high-value materials use that creates more value with less material consumed would enable individuals to become wealthier than those that have simple consumed much mass such as resource extraction industries like oil. Britain has particular problems of land area and population density not yet experienced by the United States. Britain sorely needs intelligent politicians of which it is lacking except in the area of guile where a certain genius prevails.


As an emergency measure I suggest Britain through itself on the mercy of Israel or China and plead to become part of one of those nations so better political and social organization could prevail. Also Britons should take the pledge and stop drinking booze.

What the Truth Is

The Difficulty in Learning and Accepting the Truth


The Lord Jesus Christ as eternal God comprises a 'Jacob's Ladder' to let mortal man pass from the corrupted Universe containment facility to eternal life with God. With the fall mankind was thrust into temporality with death. The spiritual condition of mankind with original sin required a firewall of containment-a Universe. God yet provided a bridge to return unto perfect obediance to his Spirit through the atoning sacrifice of the Lord.



Adamas and Edith were not made corrupt, corruption evolved during their encounters in the garden. Lucifer too evolved during the life stages on his life way to his fall. The fall of the highest created being exemplified the dangers of independent will for contingent being. Renormalization unto the will of God is challenging for individuals caught in the temporal flow of space-time thermodynamics.


Genesis chapter 2:22 “And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.”


One could contextualize that no longer did asexual reproduction reign. Sexual reproduction evolved. Yet space-time and increased brain size over time let a knowledge of the difference between good and evil appear in humanity.


Genesis chapter 3[“1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.”


God allowed the tempter to become transformed into a reptile-a snake that not only symbolizes evolution with its tiny vestigial legs but portrays an archetypal role as a time abbreviated comparative elongated amoeba that with an increased head size and leg-rotor expansion evolved to allow upright posture. Adamas and Edith moved into the flow of thermodynamioc direction suggested by the devil to Eve. The tree of knowledge permits increased consumerism and depletion of non-renewable resources. God intervened and terminates the proto-crisis. One might wonder if the account is descriptive or proscriptive.


In a mysterious way space-time transformation of Adam and Eve in a thermodynamic-free environment to one with normal space-time parameters where birth and death cohere in the sexual reproduction evolution of genes of a human species has an implicit parallel story of alternate interpretive explanations embedded within in allowing and historical extrapolation of the development of mankind in-the-world since perhaps 70,000 B.C. Has God set forth mankind and explained His relationship to them in a way set-for-all-seasons of understanding?


Interestingly astrophysicists discovered that a wandering dwarf star approached near the solar system 70,000 years ago and probably perturbed the comets and space junk in the Oort Cloud perhaps cascading planet-colliding masses to the Earth. At any rate, when God discovered it necessary to liquidate the culture of human corruption Noah and family lived in there were plenty of tools available.


Liquidating the society of Noah implies that a flood sufficient to cover the whole area those people resided in was required. If they did not live in the Himalayas then flooding the Himalaya wasn’t necessary. Perhaps God did not need to flood the western hemisphere either since no humans lived there so early in history. If the offending culture lived in Mesopotamia then a Mesopotamian flood was all that was needed. Floods happen. Noah was forewarned and prepared a boat that would take his family to Urartu (Ararat) perhaps when a natural earth dam broke with excess rain drowning the decadent urbanites of the first human eon-civilization.


That not all humans were erased from the world-those besides Noah’s family that did not live in the evil society but were instead far-flung honest rural folk, seems a reasonable inference. Since Cain was cast out from the social environment of Adamas and Edith to go elsewhere and given a mark that strangers would not kill him, it seems evident that people had already disbursed abroad. Those people could recognize what was in a sense the first mark of the beast-the passion of human embeddedness in thermodynamic evolutions-and not kill those souls marked with the desire to evolve power, possession, pride and fabrication. God would take a different approach after-the-flood to correcting the problem of original sin with covenants leading to the cross, Jesus Christ and salvation.


Genesis chapter 4-”14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.15 And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him. 16 ¶ And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.”


The descendants of Adam and Eve were numerous and long-lived. Ante-diluvian patriarch time-spans are significant literal value-markers of the age of the culture that was doomed. There is an interesting point made in chapter 6 about the culture...


Genesis chapter 6;”1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. 3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. 4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”


Those 'giants' may have been Neanderthals that interbred with humans. Neanderthals or another homo species may have been far stronger than the progeny of civilization-like athletes on steroids. About 4% of the genome of Europeans comprises Neanderthal genes.


Genesis chapter 9-”1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. 2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered. 3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. 4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. 5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. 6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man. 7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. 8 ¶ And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; 10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. 11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. 12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: 15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. 17 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.”


In a patrilineal culture where ancestry is traced through males the arrival of Noah and three sons is sufficient to restart human the culture of the people of the covenant. Women from rural peoples outside the lost civilization may have become the wives of the sons of Noah.


Genesis chapter 9-”18 ¶ And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan.19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.”


Kenneth Gentry's brilliant post-millennialist writing does not present my contemplations about God evolving the Earth, yet it is not inconsistent with it.


Kenneth Gentry writes of covenants in 'He Shall Have Dominion'-quote”In the first place, the significance of Adam's sin would bring out the force of the comparison with Israel's rebellion more specifically. Adam's role as the great sinner is familiar to the Jews (Gen. 3). Job 31:33 serves as a parallel: "If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom."


Furthermore, if "man" were adopted in Hosea 6:7, the verse would be "altogether expressionless." How else could they have sinned than like men? In addition, the reference ("they have transgressed") is to Ephraim and Judah (Hos. 6:4), not to the priests. Thus, the contrast is not one between priests and ordinary men, but between "Ephraim and Judah" and the historical Adam.


Certainly the Scriptures are pre-eminently a covenant document. Even the pattern for creation is developed covenantally in the revelation of God.”


Continuing quote from Gentry-
The unity of Scripture may be traced in the unity of the covenants, which set forth the overarching Covenant of Grace. The heart of God's "covenants of the promise" (diathekon tes epaggelias, Eph. 2:12) is: "I will be your God and you will be My people," This idea occurs a great number of times in Scripture. The redemptive covenants are established in order to secure a favorable relationship between God and His people. By means of the covenant, the covenant people become intimately related to the Lord of heaven and earth.


Covenantal development is onion-like, layer upon layer:


"[E]ach successive covenant supplements its predecessors."24 We may easily see this in comparing the structural and thematic continuity between the covenants,25 For instance,  in preparing for the establishment of the Mosaic covenant, we learn that "God remembered his covenant with Abraham" (Exo. 2:24). Under the Davidic Covenant, we find reference to and deliver-ance under the Mosaic Covenant frequently mentioned, as well as to the Abrahamic. And, of course, the relationship of the New Covenant with earlier covenants is contained in the very formula of the New Covenant: "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah" Ger. 31:31 29). Interestingly, Ezekiel combines the Abrahamic, Mosaic, and Davidic Covenants in the chapters in which he deals with the New Covenant:


And David my servant shall be king over them [Davidic]; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them [Mosaic]. And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt [Abrahamic]; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever [Davidic]. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them [New]: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore. (Ezek. 37:24-26)


In the New Covenant era itself, we discover continuity with the preceding covenants. Romans 16:20 harkens back to the Adamic Covenant. Second Peter 3:5-7 draws a parallel with the Noahic Covenant. Romans 4:16 founds the New Covenant on the Abrahamic. Romans 3:31 demonstrates the validity of the Mosaic. Romans 15:22 harkens back to the Davidic Covenant.


As mentioned above, Paul summed up the various Old Testament covenants as being "the covenants [plural] of the promise singular]" (Eph. 2: 12). There is both a basic unity undergirding the divine covenants, as well as a progressive development in them. Thus, with the coming of the New Covenant in the ministry of Christ, "the fullness of time" has been reached (Gal. 4:4).30 And these concern redemption - a redemption, as we shall see, that shall overwhelm the world.” -end quotes of Gentry pages 111-114 'He Shall have Dominion'.

Reading from 'Novilistricka Factors' (video)

I read science fiction 15 minutes-from 'Novilistricka Factors'.



U.S. Government Industrial Espionage on Cell Phone SIM Card Producers

In the world of spies the N.S.A. is no slacker targeting private business manufacturers of cell phone cards evidently. Edward Snowden has revealed the N.S.A. conducted invasive hacking on the largest  manufacturer of sim cards for cell phones so encryption data could be obtained. Industrial espionage on friends is bad business and so are is the capacity to violate most cell phone encryption so N.S.A. computers can suck up all the telecommunications of the world. It's the Democrat Party way though.

http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/USA-Update/2015/0219/Edward-Snowden-US-British-spies-hacked-cell-phone-SIM-card-encryption-keys-video

In an information age where proprietary information matters the ability of corrupt government to violate privacy completely sucks bad. People just don't realize how sorry of a situation has developed in Washington D.C. and other capitals or how to reform it yet still create security. A queer totalitarian government seems the Obama administration ideal with unlimited planetary power to know anything that anyone has to say to anyone everyplace on Earth. Of course the rich get richer too.

It is irritating when D.C. insiders just keep concentrating wealth and power while some Americans stay broke. All of that information gets shared through the revolving door of D.O.D. contracting and so forth. Ronald Reagan's biggest war was the battle for Grenada with not too many casualties. Presidents since have always found a way to create barrels of blood spilled while piling up debt deeper and deeper or giving away U.S. industry and jobs abroad. Paradoxically all that inside information the N.S.A. filches and that probably travels via dark pools to contractors and business outsourcing work to China helps some global economies advance.

On an unrelated question, I wonder how it is that every week in the U.S.A. more people apply for unemployment compensation than the number of people hired to jobs created in the U.S.A. in a month, yet the unemploymennt rate is said to drop?

Setting Boundary Conditions in Making a Federal Constitution

Nations and states considering federalism can learn from the problems and mistakes created in the formation and drift from loose boundary conditions of the U.S. Constitution.

The framers of a federal constitution for the states of America, in revolt against tyranny, saw just the barely perceptible shadow of hidden dangers lurking in the new government that could create a new form of tyranny. The boundary conditions in the articles of confederation presented strong firewalls of three separate branches of government to halt the rise of concentrated power. The constitution itself was not protected from change and subversion letting it morph into a tool for later elites to define social reality.

The constitution as it was created set a governing coordinator to act for the interests of the individual states in mutual concerns such as collective defense, trade, commerce and security. There was no concept that the power of the states and their individual identities would erode away over time. Mass communications did not exist such as in the 20th century and not even if Mary Shelly had been commissioned in 1820 to update the constitution with science fiction legal speculations could constitutionalists have imagined the rise of a leviathan central government created in a Frankenstein legal laboratory.

An original sin of the framers was to not exclude human slavery in the boundaries. Legal sophists would later argue that blacks were not human and equally absurdly for homosexual marriage.

The framers failure to clarify the boundary conditions of the constitutions at the time of conception allowed posterity to transmogrify it into whatsoever elites wished as state laws and rights for security were entirely co-opted by the power of the central government. The framers did not limit the constitution to a contract-like compact that could not later be altered. Instead they failed to recognize the need for specific boundary conditions limiting the ability of the central government to change the constitution after it was signed. Legalists have also found countless ways to interpret the constitution two and a half centuries after its composition in creative ways- applying it to innumerable applications that the founders never envisioned or intended.

The lesson for those nations and peoples considering possible federalism today would be to recognize how constitutional drift over time evolves concentrated power to the federal government erasing the individual charter states rights; only if the boundary conditions of a constitution are properly set to restrict and bind the expansion or alteration of the original contract can it be considered somewhat benign.

Human organizations evolve from innumerable sources and political directions yet they often produce the same effect of crushing individual rights in favor of collective rights. Elites then run the consolidated organization and unfairly proplit from power. The Communist Party of the former Soviet Union and Wall Street have little difference in that regard. Corporatism and communism have the same mark-of-the-beast power over the economy as Nero-the original beast of the Revelation, had over the citizens of Imperial Rome.

Does Theology Require Advanced Math?

Some could argue that Omar Khyam invented algebra while others would blame Pythagoras/theorem. It is debateable that one learning welding should study algebra yet carpenters might. Even as a secular worker Jesus might have known some calculations for building. One could spend a lifetime in learning all and sundry things and make everything academic. That can be useful for scholars; do Bible scholars need Sanskrit, Aramaic, Greek or Hebrew language less than quadratic equations? Vocational training might need to specialize and not get ordinary people to just spend their life chasing after course material that won't advance their real goals of vocation in order to apply them.

If evolutionary biology is a history course (an abstract concept with contingent model being within various theological and philosophical space-time Universe parameters) with votaries that attack human history and the kingdom of God besides implicitly presenting arrogance toward philosophers with cosmological interests and interest in examining Genesis and its space-time values in an historical context as well as held up against the light of special relativity and space-time coordinates for God and earth respectively (stipulating that God precedes space-time),

 Christian theologians may wish to have tools to use for apologetics as well as church building or secular occupations that use higher math. Yet as I mentioned the relevance to vocational activity in an internet and modern life-time learning context where education is free needs to be functional and modular. There are numerous free math and science course available from a wealth of Universities today. One could in theory draw them all together such that individuals could learn what is useful and skip over courses that have an appendix value for something or other yet may be rather uncertain. If one could learn better weather prediction for instance then one might calculate what effects cooling the world with particles in the upper atmosphere would have on the northern ice pack. Ironically differential calculus (that I did not learn) may not be able to solve select problems in cosmology and space-time in regard to gravity and extra 4 dimensional fields.

N.A.S.A. Study Predicts Increasing Droughts

Though scientists dump what must be taken as credible warnings of very dry years ahead the infrastructure of economic organizations preclude rational empirical response in a timely and effective way. Rube Goldberg schemes to cloud the atmosphere abound-and that would probably create weather swings worse than the problems of global warming. Wouldn't it be better for U.S. planners to lead a green tech revolution starting with transportation?

U.S. Court Says 'Not So Fast' to Illegal Aliens

Millions of illegal aliens granted amnesty, perhaps illegally too, by President Obama acting in his imperial mode learned that a just and wise federal judge has granted a temporary stop of the policy. Skeptic as one may be about the integrity of the federal judiciary regarding homosexuality (perhaps some are in the same circuit of behavior as President Clinton was and the advocates of homo marriages have pictures that prove it), on the alien immigration problem and porous borders the courts have generally been as willing to support U.S. border control as milk toast.

Illegal aliens could easily be contained if federal laws were enacted to deputize state law officials to arrest and remand to federal custody persons found to be in the U.S.A. illegally. One can imagine that if a terrorist enters the U.S.A. illegally claiming to be from Juarez a state official would be charged with profiling and civil rights violations if he arrested him for being illegally in the U.S.A.

Well I don't want to be harsh on the illegal alien issue since I think America is doomed to be corrupted anyway if the U..S. Supreme Court green lights homo marriage. The contentious issue might have been avoided if homos cared at all about the nation or America's place in the world. Alternative remedies for queer couplings to have some sort of government recognition other than marriage was a more pragmatic approach rather than the expropriate and degrade, subvert traditional morality and the historical intent of state legislators approach.

As a matter of conscience some people will want to find another country to reside in if the U.S.A. becomes too corrupt. If I need to look for a cheap sailboat and some way of living abroad some day that would be a surprising evolution. Mexico is corrupted by drug gangs and drug violence, yet other Latino (Latina) nations have better traditional morality in some respects than the U.S.A. I may need to learn Spanish to habla retirement village. Even so I think nations are better off with legal rather than illegal immigration that generally supports social corruption.


Naka Rises to 2800 in World Chess Rankings

Hikaru Nakamura became the first U.S. chess player to reach a score in world rankings of 2800. He also is leading the Zurich Chess Challenge after round four. Former Champ Gary Kasparov was the only chess player to retire at a 2800 score. Topolov could have retired at 2800 yet has decided to play on-a good thing since he and Boris Gelfand are the two Mikhail Tal style active players (interesting attacking play).

https://en.chessbase.com/post/zurich-rd3-the-bluff-pays-off-nakamura-2800

Bobby Fischer had a ranking in a somewhat different system. Various computations find that he reached 2900 in his best year. He retired with the highest winning percentage at 70%. Kasporov retired with a 69% score in a tough era too. World Champion Magnus Carlsen reached 2880 on his way to taking the title, yet fell short of 2900. One hopes that he becomes the first player to reach a solid and sustainable 2900 score for a year or two at least in order to clarify the issue.

Nakamura is also hoping to qualify for the candidates tournament next year and have a shot at chalenging for the world title.

Jews Should Move to Alaska-Not Israel

Israeli P.M. Netanyahu asked for Jews to leave Europe and migrte to Israel to avoid the anti-Jewish terror in Europe caused by Muslims. The reasoning is plain to a certain extent yet Alaska is a better place for Jews to migrate. Let me explain...

Alaska has a population of fewer than a million souls with Alaska natives comprising perhaps 300,000. The state is twice the size of Texas and important to world and U.S. environmental futures. However the Alaska economy is rather retarded in development with the vast oil establishment and the state government a servo-unit reliant upon it. Between the public sector and oil, federal government spending and fishing with some tourism that's about it. The state government is entirely retarded on alternative energy and social infrastructure development. Jews could change all that.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/big-question-kcl/11417634/How-should-Europes-Jews-respond-to-Netanyahu-call-for-mass-migration-to-Israel.html

It is true that Alaska was traditionally cold yet now its about 20 degrees f warmer than in the 1960s. While Boston has 7 feet of snow once could use S.E. beaches for nude air bathing with just a modicum of brown bear attack danger. When Alaska had a trade fair with the Japanese the state could show basket weaving, arts, crafts and crude oil in an imported glass yet that was about it. Albert Einstein was a Jew purportedly. Jews are said to have a higher I.Q. than any other race as a result one would think of religious faith. Enough Jews able to arrive and support themselves independently perhaps developing new thinking in ecospheric conservation and restoration, alternative transport and so forth could diversify the economy and break-up the insider inertia that permeates the social environment.

Sufficient Jews could revitalize Alaska's moribund economy while the price of oil is so low that the state has a vast budget deficit. While the U.S.A. looks to financial scams to concentrate wealth for the rich with some pork and corn cast out to the local Americans in low-paying unskilled jobs, Alaska has a vast potential for development as an anti-global warming state exemplifying solid Jewish leadership to the alt-energy underdeveloped world.

Muslims have a political system more than a religion, a theocracy with theology heavily based on political totalitarianism. Leftist broadcasters including Jews at N.P.R. (not all Jews are smart economic leaders obviously) consistently present Muslim terrorists as rare extremists. Actually war on infidels is as Muslim as any conservative Muslim could possibly be. Leftists simply can't face the facts and tend to instead support the rise of atheist extremists and all the strife that entails.



Truth Theories

There are several truth theories. The Disquotation theory of truth is a useful one. Identity theory and correspondence theory are notable. A...
