I am a bit remote from recollecting much of the history of Scholasticism and continental theology presently having worn out my Coppleston's History of Philosophy in Alaska a few years ago and migrated towards logic, cosmology and secular history and other topics inclusive of the New Testament. I remain a bit of a Toynbean and consider cyclic social history and low-entropy economics.I have considered buying McGee's 'The Bible Bus' on cd in order to reinforce a plain, Biblically based knowledge of old testament concepts.
I appreciate the scholastic investigation into causality, yet like the neo-Platonist method as well as a fell swoop method of inference about God's constructions that perhaps grace divulges. Yet presently reading Laughlin's 'A Different Universe-reinventing physics from the bottom down' I have derived some different ideas about group theory and of course causality.
The three persons that are one God is an interesting collective-singularity criterion for God that has an emergent characteristic itself perhaps negating the need for a causal explanation or reduction of cause and effect to one ponderous infinitely small particle that arose from nowhere. Perhaps Stephen Hawking would appreciate the collective as one nature of God concept of an omnipotent being that has no need for a point of origin in eternity. Stephen Hawking hypothesizes a universe that could arise de novo without diving help-perhaps because of quantum fluctuations of a vacuum energy assembling through attraction into a clump of mass large enough to expand through a phase transition of mass-energy repulsion (that may be something like the Hartle-Hawking Universe without a singularity in time merger into being with a dimension of space becoming a dimension of time.)
Robert Laughlin is not of course writing theology or divine mechanics contributions but just a different method of viewing solid state physics and quantum mechanics. I hence directly apply what I learn to the concepts about God and our relationship to His Universe and what it is.
I believe that when the emergent characteristics point of view of solid state physics is applied to cosmology and even teleology along with an awareness of the Galilean-Newtonian way of mechanics as of secondary importance to theology, the Plotinian concept of The One (God) may also be changed to be consistent to a collectivist unity as one without need for a causal reduction in time to one point explained.
God is not ultimately reducible to one particular point or grid coordinate with a place in time and with a first cause perhaps. Maybe modern physics is moving along with a parallel development about the causality of the Universe and the philosophical classification structure of mechanics.
Rigorous cause and effect structures of associated history such as would satisfy David Hume are not inconsistent with the divine attributes of omnipotence.Causality or observed changes in physical systems at a collective level are not invariably easy to reconcile with either quantum mechanics or divine causality.

Tea Party Ought to Dump Oil and Get Better, Cheaper Afghanistan Plan
A contemporary Tea Party today should advocate for a halt to fossil fuel use in transportation especially after the BP (a.k.a. British Petroleum) debacle flowing tens of millions of barrels of crude oil into U.S. waters. Motivation to stop the economically debilitating reliance on crude oil to power century old automotive vehicle concepts should be replace by more intelligent technologies for low cost, high quality personal transportation. A status quo can be hard to change in previously successful societies and often become the fin de siecle primer.
The U.S.A. imported 4,267,110,000 barrels of oil in 2009. http://www.eia.doe.gov/dnav/pet/pet_move_impcus_a2_nus_ep00_im0_mbbl_a.htm
Oil prices averaging about 55-60 dollars per barrel and rising steadily creating an ongoing outflow of disposable income to foreign interests existentially.
For the United States Afghanistan is a long-range financial drain, with more than 300 billion dollars being spent so far and hundreds of billions more anticipated ahead in future years. The U.S.A. lacks a coherent leadership plan to address Afghanistan problem planning for combating terrorism, insurgents, narco-traffickers, ethnic civil conflict and multifarious concepts about how much and what form of government should exist. To cast out the devils occupying Afghanistan and then leave to allow seven worse devils to enter that house would be tragic and a stimulus to terrorism. Neither can the U.S.A. afford to spend more than a third of its present expenditure levels annually on a long-range foreign foundation. Better policy is needed to address the employment problem in Afghanistan as well as the military security needs. Washington tends to spend everything on government workers in one form or another in Afghanistan too. Even with medals and merit pay promotions government workers to commonly have a milieu exclusive of the civil interests of private citizens.
Pakistan’s regional political issues have brought their military and intelligence services to support the Taliban historically. A number of outside powers fund destabilization of Afghanistan—even Saudi Arabia has supported the Taliban financially before. The Tea Party today should form a policy to most effectively change the game toward a positive sum strategy of central Asia instead of simply funding top down government temporal slopping of the area to de frappe formation of terrorist control. A railroad project from the Russian system to Afghanistan enabling Europe and Vladivostok commercial shipment would create many jobs and a lasting business infrastructure connecting the Khyber Pass to the outside world. The U.S.A. should create a physical project of scale with international support and not just leave another dead-end bureaucratic puff of smoke like the space station, Vietnam and so forth. Transformation of existing social structures positively may require real improvements rather than bureaucratic and military spending phenomenalities.
http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/natsec/RL33110.pdf U.S. anti-terrorism war costs so far
Afghanistan as traditionally done well with limited government. Creating a modern superstructure of government without an underlying economic hull able to support the bureaucracy, police and military force seems implicitly unstable and unable to float for-itself. Bringing a railroad to a frontier changed things in the west with new jobs and development forming along the line, perhaps it could work in Afghanistan too. Construction, commercial and security work might be lasting changes for Afghanistan the United States could afford to help get started.
A modern Tea Party should try to develop solid ideas for stopping all illegal immigration from Mexico in order to compel Mexicans to stay in Mexico and fix their own spinning-out-of-control society developing an insurgency of narco traffickers killing thousands annually. Stopping illegal Mexican immigration will let wage values for cheap labor in the U.S.A. rise and make a demand for low-skilled, unemployed American workers .
A modern Tea Party would coordinate free health care for the poor with an improved V.A. hospital system needed the next few decades to treat the million or more Iraq and Afghanistan vets injured from sundry causes such as suffering post combat stress psych and concussion challenges.
I don’t know if many have thought of this, but Mexico’s able and injured may illegally migrate to the U.S.A. And get free health care at emergency rooms, while the poor and weak tend to remain in Mexico and suffer. If the U.S.A. sealed it border to illegal immigration from Mexico and also created a public health system for the poor, it could also begin a long process of agitating for Mexico to construct a same national health care program for its poor citizens. With illegal immigration the Mexican economy and that of the United States take worst-case development courses with poverty, low wages in each nation, drug and human trafficking and corruption. The default real economic fact is reinforcement for collectivism in corporatist and neo-socialist forms amidst corrupt patronage loops, venality and social stratification with a hard core of poverty, arrested space program material developments and non-renewable economic procedures without low-entropy calculations.
Pakistan has nuclear weapons as does India and potentially Iran one day. U.S. central Asian and subcontinent policy should be forward looking toward getting these nations to support mutual ecologically and economically practical prosperity and reinforce state security.

King, Ghandi, Non-Violence, Theories For Afghanistan, Pakistan, Russia
On the subject of Ghandi and King--I am not certain that they were advocates of non-violence existentially so much as brilliant political revolutionaries who understood the time and circumstance they were living in politically. They were able to assert their political aspiration through civil disobediance when they could not have achieved their objectives through violence.
There is the path of action and of inaction to achieve the way of enlightenment helpful for social advancement. Sartre and some Calvinists too wrote about absolute intellectual freedom to not comply with the orders of others as being the freedom in all things to say no. That is an ideal applying to mind if not body when someone tosses one over the top ropes into the crowd, and perhaps to mind as well if scopolamine and other mind control drugs are used for coercive purposes, yet the political modification of social tensors toward non-violent and purposefully directed progressive courses may just require intellect and will. It is easy to get too subjective in these things perhaps and lose track of the more challenging situation like in Afghanistan today as well as Pakistan with the Taliban, terrorists, Al Qa'eda, Pustun issues with non-Pustuns, India, Russia and the challenges of getting a railroad built from the trans-Siberian railway to Uzbekistan and on to Kabul, Islamabad, and India in order that Afghanistan be not commercially isolated. The baksheesh to construct a quality rail line and keep terrorists from destroying it may be far less costly than sustaining foreign military through other means.
That region of the world apparently views patronage systems as normal and along tribal lines as well so bribery may be more of a norm and fact than an honest central government in Pakistan or Afghanistan usually. If these are usually crooked players then attaining non-violence generally may require a better perspective about how to bring the issues to a stable state.
Collective non-violence in trans-religious, supra-national realms with assymetric conflict and unstable governments require meta-structural, innovative methods of non-violent political transitions from supernumery logical agencies all too commonly unavailable. We might hope that government in D.C. was more intelligent and not so willing to be half of a drunken brawl in a manner of speaking, nor so trusting that the region's domestic disputants will not return to violence as soon as the police leave. Pakistan wants to secure Afghanistan with a Taliban so it can have an ally of Sunni for the north and against India as well. Constructing temporal non-violence requires some serious thought and will to achieve.
One must always chuckle a little at the 1968 Riot Commission Report of L.B.J. on the Michigan National Guard in Detroit contrasting the number of shells the national guard fired at mostly non-existent targets (thousands and thousands) vs. the few that the replacement 101st airborne used. I think it unlikely that either Ghandi or King would have transferred their methods to other places and times where it wasn't regarded for political reasons of the ruling power as right to give up exclusivity and inequality of certain rights or at least to compel other people to comply with equality socially for all of certain rights if they have 'stood up' as politicians are wont to say.
On the topic of Jesus being crucified with violence--that was the representational epitome of social conflict in a sense. God could experience for-himself the problem of evil that mankind lives with from their own actions. His atoning sacrifice is how grace is given unto those who accept Jesus as their savior. The grace is entirely donated and not merited by anyone--only faith is required.
Humanity being entirely wicked naturally just cannot be trusted in an eternal state. God has renormalized the human spin of those that rely upon his spiritual quantum reorganization unto perfect balance with the will of God. Humanity without God may suffer the most violence of all ultimately-that of being eternally bereft of God having to fend for themselves as eternal spirits in absolute oblivion.
Yet what could be done for them anyway when they have no faith and do not accept the ultimate sacrifice that God made for them? In the eternal divine economy how much should god sustain those that do not have belief in him?

Tax Cuts for All Except the Most Rich? In Pakistan Just 1% Pay Taxes (Maybe Graft Pays the Rest)
President Obama has resorted to blaming Republicans as an economic policy substitute for good ideas and effective implementation. He has spent political capital on attempting to gay up the military, beefing up the Afghanistan troop deployment, support for a ground zero Muslim Cultural Center/Mosque and deficit spending by the trillions. The desirability of transforming the nation to an ecological economic basis of lower entropic attrition seems beyond his concept radar screen.
There are several practical ways to tighten up the labor market and for the government to invest in new technologies and projects that would create jobs. The government has a scattergun approach to surgery though and fails to target spending adequately to effecting particular remedies.
The bad tax cut policy of both parties is a case in point. If we wish to may the United States more like Pakistan where just 1% of the people pay taxes and the number of madrassa has increase a few thousand percent as public school funding failed, if we want to have a slum lord Federal Reserve leadership to support a neo-feudal economic transition of the U.S.A. to be more like Mexico, it would be well advanced by present Obama administration policy.

On A Philosophy of Non-Violence and It's Social History
The evolution of common governance toward normative non-violence originated perhaps with Jesus of Nazareth and His crucifixion upon the true cross. Though his kingdom was not of this world his trial and suffering was. The essence of human social conflict over scarce resources, political and personal power is a perennial theme of a myriad forms.
In Afghanistan today we are concerned with the variegated and tragic human social conflicts that have overtaken the nation since the end of the positive and reconstructive era of Mohammad Zahir Shah. Wars in Afghanistan since 1978 have been of civil and tribal, narco-trafficking and political, sectarian and ethnic kinds. In an interregnum of centralized social authority or when the balance of local political autonomy and security breaks down conflicts—slip strike social faults appear to grind and subduct peace and non-violence in the abysses of hell.
The pit of despair-the unwillingness to be oneself overtakes many experiencing unlimited insults and injuries of outrageous fortune. Individuals seek the opportune and desirable goods opulently shimmering as ripe fruits in good health as experience and growth present. Little philosophical thought may need to develop or be encouraged before disaster suddenly overtakes one or falls like an avalanche upon society en mass burying it under layers of pathos, anomie and oppression. Individuals searching for non-violent paths to progress in a violent worldline encounter additional challenges in the varieties of personal and religious experience.
In considering protocols of normative human social interaction non-violent personal social transactions are considered basic in advanced modern civilizations. No longer may one pay for the product and shoot the vendor with a quick draw as he has his hands full pocketing the money to get an instant rebate. Non-violence at the personal level in all manners of human social exchange is required for the smooth flow of social progress, personal and mass security.
It is at a higher level through carefully moderated governance that violence essentially as a form of self defense is licensed on occasion. The consequences of unjust use of self defense premises at a personal or social level may be as harmful for the perpetrator as the victim as the empirical realm of social justice and development of better ways of living individually and concatenated as social products arise best when violent disruption is not a concern.
Solid-state physics is the realm above that of the quantum mechanical in which atoms and their compound constructions may be considered. There are innumerable formations of study in solid-state physics and many with emergent properties. Protocols of stability and change arise in the process of thermodynamic flow.
A stable state of any physical system without violent disruption is best. Some systems are not susceptible to individuated violent change—water for example. Water molecules of hydrogen and oxygen simply are in a somewhat randomized yet stable form. With lowered temperature water may be converted into a more regular ice crystal construction yet there aren’t any fundamental attacks or annihilations of one molecule by another.
A pervasive structural assault upon water by heating it to steam or lowering its temperature might occur—even oil might be spilled into it to alter its regional state—I am not aware of additives that would make heavy water-deuterium out of random seawater molecules in the ocean or otherwise alter it through individuated fusion into being something besides water. If human society or the human species may be compared to water or another element of basically similar composition we find that it too tends generally toward non-destruction of its own kind through violence. Perhaps the matter-anti-matter annihilation hypothesized to occur within the first second of the history of this universe (within a big bang model) could be taken as a paradigm of advisory for the danger human society could present to itself through mass violence and through the totalization of political and or religious systems globally.
If an economic totalization of the world could be taken as an equivalent of a unified state of compacted human social freedom such as a Higgs Field with Internet potential for instability in the beginning, its catastrophic transition in hyper-radiation of matter and anti-matter that then recombined and exploded as radiation is an example of the potential for an annihilating economic and sectarian explosion annihilating in time 99.9999 percent of humanity in the recombining conflict of chaos into order. Violence is transitional and catastrophic phenomena of societies in disorder as well as a comparable destruction of individual, personal health and economic security.
Prospects for a non-violent society rise as individual rights are reinforced materially with personal property and a coinciding healthy recovering ecology of a nation. Particular, intelligent national economic and ecological policies today and a stable social and religious stasis may require that the arrested Muslim civilization remain so and not resume its geography based expansion as a fire of consumption to transform the world into an ulema or realm controlled by Muslim law.
Allowing the United States to be transformed through immigration of Muslims into a more active, agitating Muslim axis of evil would be as harmful for the prospects of national and world peace as resumption of a cold war between communism and capitalism. The expansion of totalitarian systems hell-bent upon world conquest advances society toward that midnight hour of self-destruction. Forthright, determined resistance by American leadership to immigration of Muslims along with a new policy of more care in engaging in either corporate investment in the Muslim world or political engagement with it within military forms would permit a national posture more like that of Soren Kiergeguaard’s ‘armed neutrality’. Muslims should believe that the United States will certainly not attacking them with violence and have no interest in compelling them to submit to a worldly political or religious philosophy, but that in any case if Muslims attack the United States a condign, accurate and appropriate response will be inevitable, punitive and sure.
If one may regard the world as a physical system and the people within it as the elements of that system, we find its best contemporary prospects for non-violent political stability in an essential maintenance of a status quo with a fundamental phase transition into a localization of economic activity founded in renewable ecological activity. The areas in which global cooperation might best occur would be in scientific researches and exchanges of information to recover polluted ecosystems, protect endangered species and allow for a global wildlife structure insinuated amidst of the local political-economic nationalities.
Violence is a response to external challenges. It isn’t by any means the only or necessarily best response to external challenges. Control of the challenges through applications of human though while praying for extra help from God to accomplish moral ecological and social actualization of self-interest is better than reliance upon violent. If one has ever punched a concrete wall in anger it is easy to discover that it is not the best existential response to adverse stimuli.
It may be that the right to exist for an individual within a social matrix in a peaceful status of non-violence is an expression of reciprocal coherent bonding values comprising a collective stability. Individual molecules disturbed by exotic forces may understandably react with countervailing logic to restore equilibrium—this is self defense, while the collective impact of the coherent structure en mass—perhaps we will consider an eleven dimensional membrane universe as the collective mass—onto another membrane universe or reductionist nationalist entity or non-governmental terrorist organization versus another of similar scale, may result in the total impact collision of momentous consequence including shattering of the collective into a myriad of individual micro-universes chaotically spinning off in their own directions within a pervasive vacuum energy field of unknown alignment.
The dissolution of a state or universe membrane may be contrasted with the intaking of an encountered collective force-object that may cause political gas requiring the antacid of much political maneuvering and working to achieve a new stable membrane or national configuration.
Violence is an undesirable application of force toward a direct object or indirectly attained object for the purpose of involuntary pattern-form of being alteration. There are a variety of means through which individuals and organizations may work illicitly to force the destruction of the freedom and existential integrity of individuals or societies intentionally. Jesus Christ at his trial was asked if he was a king. He did not deny it, but said that his kingdom is not of this world, while the hierarchical priesthood that orchestrated his crucifixion sought to control state security through compliance with secular power of an empire with a pagan religious base and its political requirements of exclusivity. Some states require religious exclusivity while others postulate religious decontrol or tolerance. No state that wishes to continue to exist tolerates seditious organizations that use violence to establish a theocratic new government however.
The meanings of force and its applications within human societies in all times and circumstances is challenging to encapsulate and write about regarding appropriate response. Human social development in which all interests may work toward their own ends freely and without coercion from other individuals or groups is a worthy ideal. The methods to accomplish that may entail quite a few incompletions and failures. Adam Smith said, “There is a good deal of ruin in a nation”.
For much of the social environment of the world violence is a common occurrence, even the norm. Traditional tribal patronage systems of social justice in Afghanistan have been attacked by totalitarian governments, terrorists and narco-traffickers, in Africa the Sudan and Somalia, The Congo and Zimbabwe have experience a multifaceted social assault upon ordinary security. State orchestrated violence upon civilians has become a norm of policy. The United States has become an advocate of democracy and human rights too occasionally, yet as Isby said ‘Elections are a tool for democracy, not a replacement for it”. Sham elections are too often good enough to satisfy news requirements and unreasonable western expectations of nominal democracy from the top down.
Violence by the state and its agents is an inevitable aspect of the corruption of power as Acton well expressed; ‘power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely’. Unthinking wits sometimes reason thence toward the absolute power of God in a kind of logical reductio to absurdum to support their atheistic preference to justify their own power. God is not absolutely corrupt because he is absolutely powerful. The power human beings have intrasocially is in no way similar to the absolute goodness of God. Ultimately God has power only over Himself and the things he has ordained. Rather than power as the solely true existing non-contingent being, God has a horrible, mysterious ultimate burden as the only exiting being, and the only one that truly understands the ultimate origin and reason for absolutely everything.
In ancient Iran/Persia perhaps in the 9th century B.C. a philosopher named Zarathustra was said to have lived. Some of his ideas are known to history indirectly through the reports of others. Zarathustra’s ideas on good and evil, on the nature of reality as a war between good and evil started one of the worlds major religions (extirpated largely by Muslim rulers of Iran) and influenced countless other philosophers right to Nietzsche and Schopenhaur. Zarathustra's basic ideas were not the first philosophy to originate from the high plains and deserts of Iran and the upper Indus river region.
The ancient upper Indus River beyond Today’s Peshawar, Rawalpindi and Islamabad was a life-sustaining waterway down which the originators of the Indus civilization of the 4th century B.C. received religious and philosophical ideas from travelers and migrating tribes of the north. Afghanistan and Iran are not too far from the Indus River of Pakistan. The journey of the forerunning ideas of ancient Brahmanism and the caste system to maintain tribal patrilineal structures and social structure that evolved in coherent versions even unto today were also concerned with good, evil and basic human and physical relationships.
Within the philosophical and religious explanations of the ultimate origin of the Universe and of its purpose cohered natural laws regarding amicable human relations and the quest for the transcendence of the problem of evil. Human societies fought to overcome injustice and evil in various ways—often fighting others and other tribes. Violence sometime was a coincidental effect of groups and organizations pursuing their idea of the right in efforts to actualize submission to religious law regarding right and wrong and ultimate teleology.
That some ancient civilizations fought to exert the authority of a religious power of their idea of the good and of natural law over others outside of their political patrimony was a tragic consequent of the failure of human communications, of human understanding, and the brevity of life and economic-ecological level of civilization of the era. I would not offer the opinion that all ancient civilization pursued the sublime, the good and beautiful knowledge of God, in fat some were followers of a pagan god of war, or just plain hell raising megalomaniacs with guns and weapons searching for places to plunder. Not all human beings received insights into deeper philosophical interests equally or at a coinciding time period.
We learn that Abraham received his word from God around 2100 B.C. Originally from the headwaters area of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in Syria so far as a proximal basic historical etymology goes sufficient for this essay, Abraham’s Jewish forebears traveled down river to Ur and were thus situated to communicate and vie versa with the high plainsmen from two directions.
We may wonder if the inspiring word of God that seems to have a common origin for the people of the Indus Valley, for Zarathustra, for the Buddhist additions beyond the eightfold path—itself a renormalization list for an individual to the natural law during a time of an interregnum in social and religious authority, and Abraham were from one great inspiration. The inspiration may have been from the Jews early in the third millennium B.C. who ventured from Syria uphill to Iran with the influence conveyed through the Aryans unto the Indus Valley, Zarathustra and via Brahmanism and its descendent Hinduism to the Buddha in the 5th century. The sky god, the recurrent contingent universe of Brahma as a non-contingent beings, a fifty billion year future universe cycle of recurrence, the syncretism of Mohammad and its apocalyptic belief that Jesus would return to lead an army against the Jews that had him crucified—the ultimate origin of these ideas may have been that of a solitary Jewish profit with an insight from God about the nature of reality that has become quite obscure transformed through many permutations over the millennia. We may be sure however that these religious efforts were in part reinforced socially to form social patterns in coherence with natural patterns of living and given the power of laws. These laws would minimize violence.
Jesus Christ transcended the old ways of religious formations that had become ossified by his time and freed humankind from the restricting bonds of secular religious forms pervasively. The enforcement of these religious forms-varieties of Sharia for example that create conflicting clerical relationships in Afghanistan and elsewhere as various groups form their own selections of elements to accentuate from Sunni Hanafi to the ulema of Shuras in Northern Afghanistan creates possibilities for conflict with strivings for assertion of authority.
Violence in pursuit of what is right can be socially destabilizing when irrationally exuberant and a means of evil for-itself.
In Afghanistan today we are concerned with the variegated and tragic human social conflicts that have overtaken the nation since the end of the positive and reconstructive era of Mohammad Zahir Shah. Wars in Afghanistan since 1978 have been of civil and tribal, narco-trafficking and political, sectarian and ethnic kinds. In an interregnum of centralized social authority or when the balance of local political autonomy and security breaks down conflicts—slip strike social faults appear to grind and subduct peace and non-violence in the abysses of hell.
The pit of despair-the unwillingness to be oneself overtakes many experiencing unlimited insults and injuries of outrageous fortune. Individuals seek the opportune and desirable goods opulently shimmering as ripe fruits in good health as experience and growth present. Little philosophical thought may need to develop or be encouraged before disaster suddenly overtakes one or falls like an avalanche upon society en mass burying it under layers of pathos, anomie and oppression. Individuals searching for non-violent paths to progress in a violent worldline encounter additional challenges in the varieties of personal and religious experience.
In considering protocols of normative human social interaction non-violent personal social transactions are considered basic in advanced modern civilizations. No longer may one pay for the product and shoot the vendor with a quick draw as he has his hands full pocketing the money to get an instant rebate. Non-violence at the personal level in all manners of human social exchange is required for the smooth flow of social progress, personal and mass security.
It is at a higher level through carefully moderated governance that violence essentially as a form of self defense is licensed on occasion. The consequences of unjust use of self defense premises at a personal or social level may be as harmful for the perpetrator as the victim as the empirical realm of social justice and development of better ways of living individually and concatenated as social products arise best when violent disruption is not a concern.
Solid-state physics is the realm above that of the quantum mechanical in which atoms and their compound constructions may be considered. There are innumerable formations of study in solid-state physics and many with emergent properties. Protocols of stability and change arise in the process of thermodynamic flow.
A stable state of any physical system without violent disruption is best. Some systems are not susceptible to individuated violent change—water for example. Water molecules of hydrogen and oxygen simply are in a somewhat randomized yet stable form. With lowered temperature water may be converted into a more regular ice crystal construction yet there aren’t any fundamental attacks or annihilations of one molecule by another.
A pervasive structural assault upon water by heating it to steam or lowering its temperature might occur—even oil might be spilled into it to alter its regional state—I am not aware of additives that would make heavy water-deuterium out of random seawater molecules in the ocean or otherwise alter it through individuated fusion into being something besides water. If human society or the human species may be compared to water or another element of basically similar composition we find that it too tends generally toward non-destruction of its own kind through violence. Perhaps the matter-anti-matter annihilation hypothesized to occur within the first second of the history of this universe (within a big bang model) could be taken as a paradigm of advisory for the danger human society could present to itself through mass violence and through the totalization of political and or religious systems globally.
If an economic totalization of the world could be taken as an equivalent of a unified state of compacted human social freedom such as a Higgs Field with Internet potential for instability in the beginning, its catastrophic transition in hyper-radiation of matter and anti-matter that then recombined and exploded as radiation is an example of the potential for an annihilating economic and sectarian explosion annihilating in time 99.9999 percent of humanity in the recombining conflict of chaos into order. Violence is transitional and catastrophic phenomena of societies in disorder as well as a comparable destruction of individual, personal health and economic security.
Prospects for a non-violent society rise as individual rights are reinforced materially with personal property and a coinciding healthy recovering ecology of a nation. Particular, intelligent national economic and ecological policies today and a stable social and religious stasis may require that the arrested Muslim civilization remain so and not resume its geography based expansion as a fire of consumption to transform the world into an ulema or realm controlled by Muslim law.
Allowing the United States to be transformed through immigration of Muslims into a more active, agitating Muslim axis of evil would be as harmful for the prospects of national and world peace as resumption of a cold war between communism and capitalism. The expansion of totalitarian systems hell-bent upon world conquest advances society toward that midnight hour of self-destruction. Forthright, determined resistance by American leadership to immigration of Muslims along with a new policy of more care in engaging in either corporate investment in the Muslim world or political engagement with it within military forms would permit a national posture more like that of Soren Kiergeguaard’s ‘armed neutrality’. Muslims should believe that the United States will certainly not attacking them with violence and have no interest in compelling them to submit to a worldly political or religious philosophy, but that in any case if Muslims attack the United States a condign, accurate and appropriate response will be inevitable, punitive and sure.
If one may regard the world as a physical system and the people within it as the elements of that system, we find its best contemporary prospects for non-violent political stability in an essential maintenance of a status quo with a fundamental phase transition into a localization of economic activity founded in renewable ecological activity. The areas in which global cooperation might best occur would be in scientific researches and exchanges of information to recover polluted ecosystems, protect endangered species and allow for a global wildlife structure insinuated amidst of the local political-economic nationalities.
Violence is a response to external challenges. It isn’t by any means the only or necessarily best response to external challenges. Control of the challenges through applications of human though while praying for extra help from God to accomplish moral ecological and social actualization of self-interest is better than reliance upon violent. If one has ever punched a concrete wall in anger it is easy to discover that it is not the best existential response to adverse stimuli.
It may be that the right to exist for an individual within a social matrix in a peaceful status of non-violence is an expression of reciprocal coherent bonding values comprising a collective stability. Individual molecules disturbed by exotic forces may understandably react with countervailing logic to restore equilibrium—this is self defense, while the collective impact of the coherent structure en mass—perhaps we will consider an eleven dimensional membrane universe as the collective mass—onto another membrane universe or reductionist nationalist entity or non-governmental terrorist organization versus another of similar scale, may result in the total impact collision of momentous consequence including shattering of the collective into a myriad of individual micro-universes chaotically spinning off in their own directions within a pervasive vacuum energy field of unknown alignment.
The dissolution of a state or universe membrane may be contrasted with the intaking of an encountered collective force-object that may cause political gas requiring the antacid of much political maneuvering and working to achieve a new stable membrane or national configuration.
Violence is an undesirable application of force toward a direct object or indirectly attained object for the purpose of involuntary pattern-form of being alteration. There are a variety of means through which individuals and organizations may work illicitly to force the destruction of the freedom and existential integrity of individuals or societies intentionally. Jesus Christ at his trial was asked if he was a king. He did not deny it, but said that his kingdom is not of this world, while the hierarchical priesthood that orchestrated his crucifixion sought to control state security through compliance with secular power of an empire with a pagan religious base and its political requirements of exclusivity. Some states require religious exclusivity while others postulate religious decontrol or tolerance. No state that wishes to continue to exist tolerates seditious organizations that use violence to establish a theocratic new government however.
The meanings of force and its applications within human societies in all times and circumstances is challenging to encapsulate and write about regarding appropriate response. Human social development in which all interests may work toward their own ends freely and without coercion from other individuals or groups is a worthy ideal. The methods to accomplish that may entail quite a few incompletions and failures. Adam Smith said, “There is a good deal of ruin in a nation”.
For much of the social environment of the world violence is a common occurrence, even the norm. Traditional tribal patronage systems of social justice in Afghanistan have been attacked by totalitarian governments, terrorists and narco-traffickers, in Africa the Sudan and Somalia, The Congo and Zimbabwe have experience a multifaceted social assault upon ordinary security. State orchestrated violence upon civilians has become a norm of policy. The United States has become an advocate of democracy and human rights too occasionally, yet as Isby said ‘Elections are a tool for democracy, not a replacement for it”. Sham elections are too often good enough to satisfy news requirements and unreasonable western expectations of nominal democracy from the top down.
Violence by the state and its agents is an inevitable aspect of the corruption of power as Acton well expressed; ‘power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely’. Unthinking wits sometimes reason thence toward the absolute power of God in a kind of logical reductio to absurdum to support their atheistic preference to justify their own power. God is not absolutely corrupt because he is absolutely powerful. The power human beings have intrasocially is in no way similar to the absolute goodness of God. Ultimately God has power only over Himself and the things he has ordained. Rather than power as the solely true existing non-contingent being, God has a horrible, mysterious ultimate burden as the only exiting being, and the only one that truly understands the ultimate origin and reason for absolutely everything.
In ancient Iran/Persia perhaps in the 9th century B.C. a philosopher named Zarathustra was said to have lived. Some of his ideas are known to history indirectly through the reports of others. Zarathustra’s ideas on good and evil, on the nature of reality as a war between good and evil started one of the worlds major religions (extirpated largely by Muslim rulers of Iran) and influenced countless other philosophers right to Nietzsche and Schopenhaur. Zarathustra's basic ideas were not the first philosophy to originate from the high plains and deserts of Iran and the upper Indus river region.
The ancient upper Indus River beyond Today’s Peshawar, Rawalpindi and Islamabad was a life-sustaining waterway down which the originators of the Indus civilization of the 4th century B.C. received religious and philosophical ideas from travelers and migrating tribes of the north. Afghanistan and Iran are not too far from the Indus River of Pakistan. The journey of the forerunning ideas of ancient Brahmanism and the caste system to maintain tribal patrilineal structures and social structure that evolved in coherent versions even unto today were also concerned with good, evil and basic human and physical relationships.
Within the philosophical and religious explanations of the ultimate origin of the Universe and of its purpose cohered natural laws regarding amicable human relations and the quest for the transcendence of the problem of evil. Human societies fought to overcome injustice and evil in various ways—often fighting others and other tribes. Violence sometime was a coincidental effect of groups and organizations pursuing their idea of the right in efforts to actualize submission to religious law regarding right and wrong and ultimate teleology.
That some ancient civilizations fought to exert the authority of a religious power of their idea of the good and of natural law over others outside of their political patrimony was a tragic consequent of the failure of human communications, of human understanding, and the brevity of life and economic-ecological level of civilization of the era. I would not offer the opinion that all ancient civilization pursued the sublime, the good and beautiful knowledge of God, in fat some were followers of a pagan god of war, or just plain hell raising megalomaniacs with guns and weapons searching for places to plunder. Not all human beings received insights into deeper philosophical interests equally or at a coinciding time period.
We learn that Abraham received his word from God around 2100 B.C. Originally from the headwaters area of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in Syria so far as a proximal basic historical etymology goes sufficient for this essay, Abraham’s Jewish forebears traveled down river to Ur and were thus situated to communicate and vie versa with the high plainsmen from two directions.
We may wonder if the inspiring word of God that seems to have a common origin for the people of the Indus Valley, for Zarathustra, for the Buddhist additions beyond the eightfold path—itself a renormalization list for an individual to the natural law during a time of an interregnum in social and religious authority, and Abraham were from one great inspiration. The inspiration may have been from the Jews early in the third millennium B.C. who ventured from Syria uphill to Iran with the influence conveyed through the Aryans unto the Indus Valley, Zarathustra and via Brahmanism and its descendent Hinduism to the Buddha in the 5th century. The sky god, the recurrent contingent universe of Brahma as a non-contingent beings, a fifty billion year future universe cycle of recurrence, the syncretism of Mohammad and its apocalyptic belief that Jesus would return to lead an army against the Jews that had him crucified—the ultimate origin of these ideas may have been that of a solitary Jewish profit with an insight from God about the nature of reality that has become quite obscure transformed through many permutations over the millennia. We may be sure however that these religious efforts were in part reinforced socially to form social patterns in coherence with natural patterns of living and given the power of laws. These laws would minimize violence.
Jesus Christ transcended the old ways of religious formations that had become ossified by his time and freed humankind from the restricting bonds of secular religious forms pervasively. The enforcement of these religious forms-varieties of Sharia for example that create conflicting clerical relationships in Afghanistan and elsewhere as various groups form their own selections of elements to accentuate from Sunni Hanafi to the ulema of Shuras in Northern Afghanistan creates possibilities for conflict with strivings for assertion of authority.
Violence in pursuit of what is right can be socially destabilizing when irrationally exuberant and a means of evil for-itself.

President Obama; Cheerleader of Mohammadanism
President Obama recently has made speeches for religious tolerance in order that the nation will stop opposing the construction of mosques near buildings Muslims have taken the time to destroy. The President exhibits completely incomprehension of what religious tolerance is, and why Americans increasingly oppose Muslim immigration to the United States.
Americans are opposed to domestic violence, terrorism and seditious legal constructions such as Sharia Muslim law from increasing in this nation. On the other hand they are obviously tolerant of religions that have no element of organized violence and legal sedition as part of their belief system. One may argue that there are good Muslims and bad Muslims like there may be mostly blank bullets for a stage prop gun with just a percent of real bullets—yet it makes a difference to the actors if some of those bullets are live rounds.
One can argue that just some automobiles experience computer chip break failure or that just some bottles of headache pills have poison in them yet citizens care and suspend or recall the product until it is fixed.
The President may be a completely disingenuous idiot to not comprehend that the Muslim ‘religion’ has a large element of violence in it unique amidst major world religions. The United States may survive the President's unamerican ideas on religious tolerance. Being socialized outside the United States as a youth living in Muslim nations President Obama developed a warped, misguided idea of the nature of 'Islam' living as he was within the Dar al Islam.
Americans have no need to tolerate threats of mass destruction and sundry terrorist incidents along with ingression of a seditious legal system under the umbrella of ‘religious tolerance’. The President may fail to comprehend that the nation is tolerant of a myriad of esoteric and even fruit-cakish religions with equanimity and would have little to say about the Muslim religion if it shared the common characteristic of being non-violent and not legally seditious as with all these others. He should not be a kind of snake oil salesman of an evil empire of violence or a duplicitous follower of the false prophet levering support for the increase of terrorism in the United States under the label of ‘religious tolerance’.
Consider Americans religions like Soka Gakkai, Pure Land Buddhism, Eckankar, Christian Science, Modern Mormonism and even Wicca—Americans are tolerant of these sometimes extra terrestrial believing faiths because they give no concern about a percent of their practitioners as being terrorist mass murderers even with systematic jihadist theology. The President stupidly as a log believes Americans are opposed to religious ideas rather than to secular terrorist actions that a significant number of Muslims have are perennially evangelized by to become followers of the jihadist path.
Would Mayor Bloomberg or the People New York be tolerant of a Fascist Religion and the Construction of Nazi Temples of elegant scale? Would they be tolerant of a Sacred Church of the Klan constructed in Selma Alabama? Would Atlanta welcome a Shrine to Valhalla and the pagan Pantheon of Neo-Gods including Adolph Hitler, Heinrich Himmler and Vice Air Marshall Kesselring?
Not everything that calls itself a religion is tolerated in the United States. It is the association of a religion with violence even at the periphery when it is common and recurrent that provides justification to sorting out and restricting the actions of organizations with simultaneously religious functions and doctrines occasionally interpreted as justifications for unholy wars through terror, subversion and other enemy directed activities against the people of the United States.
Today post Hiroshima and post 9-11 the Presidents call for religious tolerance of Mohammadanism in America sounds loudly untrue. If globally Mohammadanists forsake the way of violence for a few decades of their existence and have a change of heart worthy of creating a credible social belief that violence, terror and Sharia sedition are not really latent traits that often emerge in generations like transformative wolf man genes mutating human life consuming social progeny every so often then Mohamadanism could be tolerated in the United States could be tolerated just another religion.
The Romans and Greeks tended toward religious tolerance bringing new false gods into their pantheons from abroad. As they became decadent they also brought in and trained more soldiers for their armies from foreign locales. Attila spent some of his youth in the company of the son of a Roman elite politician-soldier. Roman tolerance of sundry creeds and peoples was ultimately the cause of their downfall, for they put to death God incarnate-Jesus Christ, whom they could not recognize amidst all their statuary. The living spirit of God dwells not in temples, mosques or jihadist and poppy growing terror cells in Pakistan these days, but in the hearts and minds of the faithful.
The violence in Mohammadanism is the reason for the desirability of excluding Muslims from immigrating to the United States. Mohamadanism is a security threat even if only one percent of Muslims are terrorists, supporters of terrorism or thinking about sedition support for Sharia. The United States simply doesn’t need them or the problems they create. It is true that Muslim abstemiousness from alcohol and sexual perversity are excellent things when actualized, yet like pagan idols they won’t b sufficient for salvation. Like violent pagan religions such as those of The Church of Thor and the First Church of Mars, Blood Death and Thrill Killing, Mohammadanism should not be tolerated unless it enters a universal condition of remission and usual non-violence almost all the time.
President Obama has combined the worst Clinton era economic bad infrastructure to the Bush II deficit spending policy to produce a hybrid economic malaise. His own new contribution seems to be advocacy for increase of the uniquely violent major world religion as a community organizer in the United States.

Donald Trump Makes Offer on Problem Mosque Property Near Ground Zero
Donald Trump has made an offer on the 4.85 million dollar property the potential 12 story mosque would be built on near ground zero. This article quotes the developer as saying he has been offered three times that already. Trump offered 25% more money (an extra million more or less).
That mosque problem sure drives up real estate values near ground zero.

Florida Dove Church Pastor Jones has cancelled plans to burn Qurans and has a meeting scheduled with an Imam Rauf of the Muslim Center. Terry Jones believes after talking with a local Imam that the plans to build the center have been cancelled.

The dar al America is under attack from the dar al Islam. In the early 20th century the U.S. Government halted immigration of Eastern Europeans largely because of the concern about anarchists and communists. Immigration of Muslims should be stopped for the same reason.
The more Muslims are admitted to the United States the more it will become a dar al harb. Democrats of a spoilt nature may be unaware of world history and have a que sera sera foreign and domestic Mary Poppins policy. They attack Christians because Christians don't support sin, yet they are making a fundamental error when they fail to recognize the political nature of the Mohammadan politico-religious system that is the moral equivalent of Marxism for the 21st century.
The immigration act of 1924 was designed to slow immigration from Eastern and Southern Europe. With terrorist jihadist being a significant percentage of Muslim populations and practices the allowance for immigration of Muslims to the U.S.A.should be stopped for a few decades until the social interaction of trust naturally develops and muslims are able to develop their own ecologically economic based economies and not require immigrating to take over America with Shri'a law treason.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_Act_of_1924
Spaniards and other freedom fighters needed nearly a thousand years of bloody war to role up the Dar al Islam and send it back to Africa. Some spoilt Americans give up their western civilization with a smile. They haven't had close personal combat with swords to defend their liberty and beliefs. Some people need that to believe that others may not regard their own liberties as meaningful. Wisdom would let us learn from the experience of others and take a better course toward political stability and conservation of human rights beginning with our own.
U.S. immigration policy was never intended to subvert the security interests of the people of the United States. Permitting Muslim immigrants to the United States does so undermine the security of the nation. It should be stopped.
Early in the 20th century there was a large number of immigrants from Eastern Europe. U.S. policy in recognition of the potential for anarchism and communism from groups from that area in that time halted the flow. Today the flow of Muslims should be halted, for they are of a religion uniquely established to generate a significant number of terrorists as a percent of their population. The terrorists seek to establish a sedition-a dar al Islam or realm of Islam, in whatever nation they occupy.
An immigration policy predominantly set today to accord with the que sera sera outlook of the Democratic Party and Republican globalists is perhaps terminally misguided in believing that the charisma of a secular, amoral material prosperity from the United States will fundamentally transform the Muslims of the world brought into the American secular anti-umma of immorality into becoming tolerant of homosexuality, abortion, federal deficits, pervasive perversity and non-clerical rule, and they are wrong.
Admitting more Muslims to the United States will bring in more terrorists and increase the disestablishment of the comparative peace and advance in human right that has grown in the United States as a Christian nation the past 240 years often at great cost. The que sera sera Democratic political outlook of blind faith in existential material production sources in non-local global economic structures will lead the many of the women of the United States back in to a discipline they lack and perhaps secretly desire under Shri’a.
There is no reason for the people of the United States to be tolerant of a violent religion that is politically sedition. Shri’a is sedulous in America and the que sera sera portion of the populace that phenomenally photograph themselves skydiving without a parachute simply do not understand the consequences of bad political judgment. There are no other major world religions with a comparable element of political motivated violent conquest.
The basic elements of the dar al America are not consistent with a dar al Islam. Democrats and other symps of sedition reinforce Mohammedan force build up for a dar al Harb, or harbor of war of conquest in the humma (the United States with a good economy and ecological recovery policy without foreign terrorism). The New York port authority was drawn into the dar al Harb by the 9-11 terrorists and forces to construct a vast axis of evil mosque near ground zero. The Humma is threatened and waning. To restore the dar al America ti a condition of full employment and no public debt, innovative thinking and the stop of illegal aliens and Muhammadans to the dar al America must need occur.
-NOTE In Arabic 'dar' means 'place'. It also is used to mean 'house' in the Hanafi muslim school of legal jurisprudence (see then wikipedia article link).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisions_of_the_world_in_Islam#Dar_al-Islam
The morpheme 'al' in Arabic is a language particle fixed to a noun making it a definate article. Al Qa'eda thus means 'the base'. Dar al Harb (or Dar al Garb) means the non-muslim areas.
The House or Place of America is a term I created to serve in distinction to the Muslim criterion.

To restore the dar al America ti a condition of full employment and no public debt, innovative thinking and the stop of illegal aliens and Muhammadans to the dar al America must need occur.
-NOTE In Arabic 'dar' means 'place'. It also is used to mean 'house' in the Hanafi muslim school of legal jurisprudence (see then wikipedia article link).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisions_of_the_world_in_Islam#Dar_al-Islam
The morpheme 'al' in Arabic is a language particle fixed to a noun making it a definate article. Al Qa'eda thus means 'the base'. Dar al Harb (or Dar al Garb) means the non-muslim areas.
The House or Place of America is a term I created to serve in distinction to the Muslim criterion.
Package Large-Scale Science Projects Within Instant Economic Infrastructure
The Higgs Boson had only a slim chance of being discovered at Cern. It would be a very heavy particle of a class only hypothesized to exist. There is yet much other good science going on.
The Higgs field is thought to have existed in the first second of the Universe within a Big Bang model, and there are newer theories than that one. If it was found it might give credence to being a more fundamental particle that the other particles were formed from. It wasn't a hyperbole -god particle, just another physics advance in knowledge.
The trouble with large electromagnetic superconductor particle accelerator is the cost of the magnets and the scaling up required to make better tests. They have rather reached a size-cost limit and better engineering ideas synergizing with politics is required for further progress.
The original magnetic particle accelerators like the cyclotron were very small. I believe that building super-conducting accelerator structures on the moon as part of a national scientific research base would be a better idea. The same electromagnets would be used as a mass driver to send cargo on its way off into space and for around the moon local transport as well as particle accelerating. The accelerator speeds would be variegated within differing protocols of the low temperature super conducting plastics.
Fundamental large scale science projects using new technology should be constructed as integral elements of applied science, engineering and economics projects in order to get more bang for the buck.

End Muslim Immigration to the dar al America
U.S. immigration policy was never intended to subvert the security interests of the people of the United States. Permitting Muslim immigrants to the United States does so undermine the security of the nation. It should be stopped.
Early in the 20th century there was a large number of immigrants from Eastern Europe. U.S. policy in recognition of the potential for anarchism and communism from groups from that area in that time halted the flow. Today the flow of Muslims should be halted, for they are of a religion uniquely established to generate a significant number of terrorists as a percent of their population. The terrorists seek to establish a sedition-a dar al Islam or realm of Islam, in whatever nation they occupy.
An immigration policy predominantly set today to accord with the que sera sera outlook of the Democratic Party and Republican globalists is perhaps terminally misguided in believing that the charisma of a secular, amoral material prosperity from the United States will fundamentally transform the Muslims of the world brought into the American secular anti-umma of immorality into becoming tolerant of homosexuality, abortion, federal deficits, pervasive perversity and non-clerical rule, and they are wrong.
Admitting more Muslims to the United States will bring in more terrorists and increase the disestablishment of the comparative peace and advance in human right that has grown in the United States as a Christian nation the past 240 years often at great cost. The que sera sera Democratic political outlook of blind faith in existential material production sources in non-local global economic structures will lead the many of the women of the United States back in to a discipline they lack and perhaps secretly desire under Shri’a.
There is no reason for the people of the United States to be tolerant of a violent religion that is politically sedition. Shri’a is sedulous in America and the que sera sera portion of the populace that phenomenally photograph themselves skydiving without a parachute simply do not understand the consequences of bad political judgment. There are no other major world religions with a comparable element of political motivated violent conquest.
The basic elements of the dar al America are not consistent with a dar al Islam. Democrats and other symps of sedition reinforce Mohammedan force build up for a dar al Harb, or harbor of war of conquest in the humma (the United States with a good economy and ecological recovery policy without foreign terrorism). The New York port authority was drawn into the dar al Harb by the 9-11 terrorists and forces to construct a vast axis of evil mosque near ground zero. The Humma is threatened and waning.

'Afghanistan-The Graveyard of Empires' by Isby
Midway through this interesting book on Afghanistan I have found that it is written perhaps more from the perspective of a contemporary affairs political writer than that of an historian. With about 400 pages of informative prose it takes about as much time to get through as an ordinary popular book on cosmology yet its worth the effort. Most Americans haven't got anything like this level of detail on the structure of jihadist politics in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Isby's book oddly has the same title as this article in foreign affairs in Nov/Dec. 2001 by the former C.I.A. station Chief in Pqakistan from 1986-1989.
http://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/57411/milton-bearden/afghanistan-graveyard-of-empires
http://www.amazon.com/Afghanistan-Graveyard-Empires-History-Borderland/dp/160598082X Isby's book at Amazon.com
One discovers a working level of history as it pertains to the recent conflicts and perennial chaos organized for the profit of a military industrial complex of terrorists and criminals as well as in support of Pakistan's regional interests for defense and influence. We find that the Taliban really did execute a 16 year old for participating in a government work-for-food program, and become skeptical that the federal effort to control everything could be wrapped up in a decade or two.
The Afghanistan political troubles of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries were thought of as 'The Great Game' because of the challenging competition by foreign governments to control the area or influence it for its tactical value regarding location. Unfortunately today's blimp college graduates in D.C. given real work in government agencies will tend to feel the same way and waste taxpayer money instead of wrapping up the financial drain that damages the well-being of us homeless Americans.
I have yet to complete reading this book though,and may find answers to my own skepticism regarding the intelligence or lack of it in Washington D.C. It is important not to harm U.S. interests when defending them. Waging a war along an experimental counter-insurgency and formation of a stable nation basis perhaps with global corporatist reasoning is bound to be bad for the bottom line for most Americans.
It is disappointing that style in military conflict should ever become an issue for ordinary civilians generally unhappy with war at all. The failure of D.C. politicians to pursue a nationalist policy instead of a globalist policy means that political warping like gravitational lensing of light of distant galaxies reaching Earth needs some correction like the Hubble Space Telescope mirrors-that economic and foreign policy has yet to have the correction required for the continuity of the well being of the U.S.A.

Burning the Koran as a Defense of the First Amendment
The public couldn't rely on the U.S. Government to defend the World Trade Towers on 9-11-2001, yet the government can intimidate college town ministers and run up more billions of public debt than the billions of years of the age of the Universe while victimizing the poor.
The Koran has been burned before. Last time it hadn’t so much publicity. Warning--This video may have been made before the federal government made its hate crimes law to neuter free speech politically.
http://www.archive.org/details/WestboroBaptistChurchWBCBurnstheKoran
It is possible to fictionalize and hyperbolize (only a little) the maladroit globalist government effort to show some hate to the little church of Terry Jones in Florida. The state department has called the action ‘unamerican’ and General Petraeus has got a hyper weggie over it while the Vatican too has joined into support of the jihadists enraged over a burning of a few Korans.
All Americans live under the lens these days, and so one must be hip to be a real American. Hip values are defined in Devilwood and D.C.-Boston also known as the axis of androids. The church of Terry Jones is thus horribly square and worth some camera time.
Before I go too far, I should explain that I have myself left a Bible in bad repair a time or two in a church so I wouldn’t have to dispose of it myself when it was really worn out or damaged. What do they do with ruined Bibles? I would think they burn them rather than toss them in the landfill—well, its their problem anyway.
Working at a once posh Hotel I found a Gideon’s Bible in the gutter one morning sweeping the sidewalk . Guests may steal the books or take them on drinking binges—who can say. When Bibles become damaged and so many pages are ex libre’d out of context what can one do? How does one ‘retire’ excerpts of the Bible anyway?
I perhaps have felt something like Muslims may when the Quran is disposed of in a field expedient way when people deface the Bible or other quality books with magic marker hylighters, or writing comments in the margins. I wouldn't find a gimp to strap on suicide underwear and blow up an aircraft over Detroit about it though--the Mohammadan mind orientation is a little different from those of god-fearing Americans.
If the government calls that un-American—well, the government could be a bunch of rich, corrupt cowards these days perhaps full of nuclear supremacy.
Surrounded by a supportive group of interdenominational Taliban clergy from Baluchistan Attorney General Eric Holer said he would investigate hate crimes against Muslims planned in Florida to commemorate 9-11. Amidst a backdrop of burning American flags and effigies of Uncle Sam set ablaze, Mr. Holer expressed dismay at the planned book burning by a conservative Christian hierarchical priest. The pastor of the What's it 2 Ya First Church Of Gainesville has amassed more than 200 copies of the controversial red book 'The Quotations of Chairman Mao'.
Maulavi Abd-al-Hadi bin-abd-al-Hakim, a Taliban military district leader said (quoted in translation- from Isby's Afghanistan page 166) "We carry out martyrdom-seeking operations when needed. This happens when we cannot use other military tactics, therefore, we have used the tactics of martyrdom-seeking operations against the crusading forces only once". The burning of the Satanic Verses is in commemoration of the 9-11 attacks.
Would Americans defend the first amendment, or the third, in this era of global corporatist quietism submerging into depravity, hucksterism and rave?
In the absence of politically eloquent and persuasive defenses of U.S. civil liberties, with a bought and paid for, pure materialist leadership we must rely on the A.C.L.U .for defense of the right to burn offensive books.
A General Petreaus consultant from Afghanistan and Iraq accustomed to a social environment in which warlords may have extreme power over mere civilians, offered his opinion on free speech in Florida owning up that burning books will cause combat casualties. We interpret what he said regarding burning Korans in light of the first amendment in the United States as meaning free speech could be usefully oppressed for a decade or until the war of the east is wrapped up in 2134 when the local populace of Afghanistan will not be offended by free speech in the United States. He could also have said that martial law might be a good idea. Maybe General Petraeus would like to become a Persian Satrap eventually too.
We like our Generals more like Ike or Pattonand leadership like Churchill's rather than that of Chamberlain or the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. Generals engaged in protracted, expensive experimental insurgent control for nation rebuilding ventures seeking to affect U.S. political and civil rights activities should offer their concerns through the local U.S. Ambassador who could then convey the concerns of the troubled military commander to the people of the United States.
U.S. Generals are used to having their own media entourage these days, yet they should decline using the bully’s pulpit of the broadcast media to directly attack individual American citizens burning books. The General could better buy books with their vast salaries and provide copies of my book "St. Novilistricka; Dimensions" available directly at

I haven't got any sort of method for converting the world to the study of philosophy or cosmology at the point of a sword or M-60 in it, but a creative and misguided reader could try.
Generals in anticipation of lucrative post-service employment by arms producers and Muslim oil producing nations, may offer complete support for hushing up Church pastors in the United States instead of broadcast network mafias that rebroadcast farts to heard round the world.
President Berluscone of Italy kissed an extended body part of former Libyan terrorist planner Moamar Khaddafi, and the Scottish Government released the Lockerbie bomber to spite the people of the U.S.A. mooning them for electing a Muslim president, the contribution of the U.S. Government to the trend s to investigate opponents of building a large mosque near ground zero and to publicly abuse a college town church pastor for burning 200 copies of the book carried by the 9-11 mass murderers.
The Department of Injustice, Hate and Thought Crimes article-later said that the Democratic Party is the anti-god party seeking to pervert all moral values in the United States and make the nation fit for an anti-Christ. The article-later noted that if Koran burning animated gif greetings on the Internet and wireless apps were common, that would also be transgressing boundaries and something to ban free speech about. The party opinion provided on the drowning out of free speech was-'The range of the umma-lands peacefully living under the dictatorship of Muslim clerics-can be expanded with the suppression of sparks of dissent. Burning the Koran is an egregious dissent with satanic verses.'
Mohammedanism is not a house church formed in the United States as an implicit part of the historical culture of the founders. It is a militant, expansive, conflict driven political method designed to conquer and unify the turbulent and war prone Middle East of the 7th century. It has had success expanding in non-white regions with colonialist or primitive histories as well as those nations frequently experiencing war and foreign occupation. It is a Marxist manifesto for the 20th century.
Mohammedanism permits a basic pax Mohammad to prevail across tribal and national boundaries offering some hypothetical transcendence of local political conflict. Historically Mohammedanism uses violence to expand into politically independent areas. In Afghanistan and Pakistan the Taliban and other terrorist organization use violence to delete political dissidents, and of course New York City on 9-11 experienced the wrath of Mohammad. Mohammad's sermon on the mount was from the back of a warhorse.

President Obama's New, Bad Economic Plan
President Obama's desire to spend another 50 billion dollars on roads, rail and runways seems like a Chicago machine politics kickback of times past to support local projects. Boeing headquartered in Chicago needs runways there are lots of asphalt roads and of course railroads also exist. These are stale areas to invest in, and puzzling.
The rest of the President's 350 billion dollar economic crap shoot seems to be less bad and has more potential to be of use for non-corporate business in the U.S.A.
The present U.S. national debt is 13.28 trillion dollars. It is scheduled to rise to 18.4 trillion dollars by the year 2014. That is bad news. Interest must be paid on those trillions that cannot be used for services to the poor, a moon research base or tax cuts for the poor (poor self-employed people must pay 10% tax even if there is no work--owing from the year before).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_public_debt
President Obama suggests not to worry about the added debt or how to pay for it. On Demo talk radio this morning a host was saying that the nation's budget can easily stand another trillion or two of debt and that foreigners buying T-bills at less than 4% interest are not concerned about the debt---that all seems like traditionally spoilt and profligate economic management.
Deep national debt is an invariable evil and the consequence of bad and corrupt political-economic leadership. If the house of the nation collapses around them in flames eventually, I suppose they can stoically endure that with post-modernist detachment--even if it gets worse.
http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSN0719946120100907
It is the poor that will suffer from the bi-partisan perfidy of Democratic and Republican administrations.They will have no competent health care, they will be homeless and live in the penury of poverty without books, privacy, high speed internet access or the opportunity to date and invent birthing of new technologies locally owned.
The Democrats blame the Republicans for the economic mess. Yet the structuring of the mortgage and finance crisis was pervasively that of President Clinton who signed off on things like the repeal of Glass-Steagle. President Clinton structured a rotten economic profit talking flam economy in the 90's that made the nation a leaky economic bucket.
When banks are fundamentally unreliable where can an ordinary individual put their money for safekeeping and a modest rate of return of interest? The Clinton administration made banks and Wall Street bunk establishments through a variety of means. President Obama has brought back that Larry Summers school of bunk profit taking to set up another round of disasters.
Of course we know that President Bush II was unconcerned about the federal deficit in his headlong rush to enrich the military industrial complex with badly thought out foreign protracted engagements in conflict areas. A smart President like Ronald Reagan who seemed to understand human affairs a little better than subsequent Presidents who not have lost trillions to pursue Al Qa'eda, but would have kicked them anyway.
In Pakistan Al Qa'eda seems to be enjoying a second life post 9-11 in the terror underground while a new generation of terrorists under their loose leadership can enact winning tactics to trim U.S. interests. The Republicans gave President Clinton good advice inn saying he should fire his economic team--he should, and replace it with more innovative and competent ecological economic innovators determined to balance the federal budget, close up the leaky Mexican border and invest in projects that create U.S. national economic advantage with new technology infrastructure. The Presidential plan to invest in century old infrastructure was a union-corporatism venture. Highways support foreign made automobile industries...I would like for auto makers, airlines and railroads to pay for their own lines to run on or land on. When the people pay for them that is a foundation for corporatism. Corporatism is a global phenomenon today and extracts cash from the United States.
The other problem with the President’s immediate economic approaches is his reliance on making the middle class a wheedling opponent of the rich. If the medical plan he forced on the nation had been set aside until after a National Health Service for the poor was created many of the problems the middle class experience would have faded away. When the poor are left hanging twisting slowly in the wind in the U.S.A. problems will inevitably arise for the middle class. The rich are no more a friend of the middle class than they are of the poor.

President Obama has brought back that Larry Summers school of bunk profit taking to set up another round of disasters.
Of course we know that President Bush II was unconcerned about the federal deficit in his headlong rush to enrich the military industrial complex with badly thought out foreign protracted engagements in conflict areas. A smart President like Ronald Reagan who seemed to understand human affairs a little better than subsequent Presidents who not have lost trillions to pursue Al Qa'eda, but would have kicked them anyway.
In Pakistan Al Qa'eda seems to be enjoying a second life post 9-11 in the terror underground while a new generation of terrorists under their loose leadership can enact winning tactics to trim U.S. interests. The Republicans gave President Clinton good advice inn saying he should fire his economic team--he should, and replace it with more innovative and competent ecological economic innovators determined to balance the federal budget, close up the leaky Mexican border and invest in projects that create U.S. national economic advantage with new technology infrastructure. The Presidential plan to invest in century old infrastructure was a union-corporatism venture. Highways support foreign made automobile industries...I would like for auto makers, airlines and railroads to pay for their own lines to run on or land on. When the people pay for them that is a foundation for corporatism. Corporatism is a global phenomenon today and extracts cash from the United States.
The other problem with the President’s immediate economic approaches is his reliance on making the middle class a wheedling opponent of the rich. If the medical plan he forced on the nation had been set aside until after a National Health Service for the poor was created many of the problems the middle class experience would have faded away. When the poor are left hanging twisting slowly in the wind in the U.S.A. problems will inevitably arise for the middle class. The rich are no more a friend of the middle class than they are of the poor.

Inflaton vs Cyclical Membrane vs All Other Cosmological Theories
This is an interesting time in cosmological theory development. String theory is undermining the standard quantum models of physics by tunneling below the known present math. Infinitesimally small string segments wrapping themselves into all kinds of knots, twists and shapes in six or seven extra tiny dimensions are considered to form the regular particles, quarks, electrons and such of the quantum mechanical world. Where these strings originated from, how they were individually cut into little pieces or why they have standardized lengths isn't certain to me--I'll need to wait until 'String Theory Made Simple' is published.
The WMAP survey of the state of the Universe's light and radiation when it was just 380,000 years of age vs. the present 13.7 billion years is being studied for a variety of things such as patterns made by gravity waves and so forth. Instead of a big bang and inflation from a small point a rival theory based on string theory has two vast membranes colliding with points of contact generating matter. That ten dimensional membrane universe pair recycles every trillion years attracting and expanding.
The recycling Universe of bound membranes of Turok and Steinhardt could occur in a variety of forms too numerous to mention here. I see no reason why just one membrane might not have existed with vibrations spoken in to it. Tests for the presence of early universe gravity waves might confirm or deny the inflation theory.
Stephen Hawking had developed a quantum uncertainty based agitating vacuum theory where time would be created gradually as mass and dimensions flip-flopped on its axis at some vague point within the first second of the universe. If one can vague up the starting vertex of time, or if time and space are created from nothing besides scrimped up virtual particles plentiful enough in the emptiness of pre-space to let a modest universe form then it is fair enough to say that the universe could arise from nothing.
There exist those skeptics that would automatically say that God created the nothing before the Universe existed too, and that besides nothing isn't what we think it is, and it doesn't have a necessary existence either. It is possible that something other than nothing exists before the vacuum and space-time were issued.
Turok and Steinhardt seemed to dislike the multiverse theory generated with an anthropic principle necessity to explain the fine-tuning of constants that support the existence of life inn this Universe. It seems unscientific to just make up a zillion universes to account for this one as just a mediocre, inevitable naturally selected one...eventually one suitable for life had to come into being amidst the trillions that aren't and we just happen to be the lucky winners of this excellent universe with silly, wasteful anti-ecological economic habitat destroying political leaders in it.
Its good that conservative two-membrane banging theorists of the eternal recurrence perhaps with variations are in opposition to the radical multiverse theorists that postulate bubble-branes and inflatons forming in all possible forms like a perpetual tree of life or at least tree of life potentially supporting structure universes. Those universes that haven't life in them, like the fig tree that Jesus encountered that had no fruit, are cursed and wither away with no one in them to experience the and sunsets.
Obviously there are a trillion zillion angles to interpret regarding potential forms of a universe. It is a fashion to reduce these things to categories such as to include all possibilities in the abstract. I will try that now;
1) All Universes have a time before which they had no time
2) All Universes end in time or eternally recur
3) All universes have either a begging endowment of space or and end of space
4) All present physical theories of the Universe may be wrong
5) Space may be a temporal illusion, and only solid material exists with protocols of encounter creating the appearance of intervals and gaps
6) Gravity may be a phenomenon of quantum probability selections en mass instead of a particle
7) All mass-energy may actually be spirit
8) Anything else not covered is covered by this
9) Go to # 1
If life on Earth that could leave fossils emerged 550 million years ago, then it is plain enough that was on the sixth day (if a day equals a billion years) when god then rested and let nature take its course. In a similar scalar extrapolation the Universe is believed to have been dominated by radiation followed by matter for the first 5.5 billion years of its existence. God worked all that matter for what amounts to six days of a billion years each give or take a few. God then let dark energy takeover and push the matter to the right intervals the last seven billion years as matter contracted under statistical quantum probability entanglement (gravity).
It seems as if a scalar field invariant time of God working for 5.5. days occurred with the work being completed by noon. Working a half-day on Saturday is really a good example. I would be inclined to take the day off and play chess or go fishing and stay off the decadent golf courses corrupting the working determination of contemporary Americans.
So much for this brief review of the variegated field of cosmology today. I haven't mentioned the holographic universe is a computer, or an intelligent computer for obvious reason-in the beginning there were no power outlets made to plug in to.
On the face of the waters (hydrogen or a Higgs Field, or a limitless something or nothingness pre-existing the material forms) the Spirit moved and the spoken word let light exist. While theorists believe that light emerged from chaotic scattering of primordial hot plasma at the 380,000 years time threshold from initial phase transition, the symbolic emergence of light from the three scalar field invariant number is interesting for-itself.

Ideas for Afghanistan
Never having been to Afghanistan in is difficult to make suggestion about how to improve U.S. Government policy implementation and design for that troubled vortex of challenges. Reading 'Afghanistan; The Graveyard of Civilizations' I have thought of a few things that might make for a better development of the region, though these are just superficially generated ideas.
If half of the people of that nation can't afford food, then occasionally distribute some lightweight packaged food as random acts of kindness. Beef jerkey is good food, and how many vitamins would a million or a billion bucks buy?
2nd, Afghanistan has a perennial water shortage problem that helps cause the food problem. This could be a larger problem to solve as a project. Afghanistan must have a lot of wind so make a few wind farm projects. Then draw saltwater into a pipeline and desalinate it in Afghanistan using the wind power to power the pumps. If some of the water was taken over the hill and released toward the Aral Sea it would require less energy to pump it uphill.
The excess salt or sodium crystals might be researched for a building material. Perhaps if something is added to salt one might be able to make a more lasting crystalline building material of it. If one had a liquid crystal building material that could be poured ike concreate and harden clear that would be a mice way to use the excess salt letover fromdesalinating water for Agriculture.
Yet there are said to be six regions in Afghanistan geographically that are somewaht isolated. That feature might be accentutated as a positive element in de frapping the terrorist traits of attacking centralization. Switzerland's cantons of yore might be a model for regional, independent political development in Afghanistan perhaps with a federated symbolic government. Political corruption might be decreased by limiting its pervasive federal powers of networking.
Plainly the U.S. military hasn't got an ecological economics innovating war nation rebuilding division of intellectual economic engineers on active duty today. Just going about the Afghan problem with the traditional military approaches that lead eventually to a dysfunctional social economy may be convenient for present federal planners yet it requires ongoing borrowing of money and dumping of debt on the United States. We hope for a more intelligent Federal approach to transforming the Afghanistan economy than the purely behavioral conditioning approach.
In some regards elements of the Bostonian-San Francisco political left are a kind of American Anti-Taliban with an Al Qa'eda like goal of getting their fingers in everyone's pie and remaking the world in their own image. They are an atheist Talibani image of the beast making team of course, yet some of their essential political parameters are the same and of course they are happy to apply extreme economic pressures on those unwilling to give up political resistance to their hostile takeover. Such political policy tends to be volatile and stimulate political responses of adverse natures. Meanwhile the moon development program is unfunded and the poor of the U.S. remain poor without hope of good jobs or even moderate earnings for a human standard of living.

President Obama Declares Afghanistan Offensive With Iraq Comabt Ops Over
I am happy enough that the President followed up on President Bush's plan to wrap of Iraq combat operations yet would have preferred that he sound less Napoleonic on the Afghanistan thing. It is the right of Presidents to declare offensive of course even if 9-11 was nine years ago and the government of Afghanistan of that day deposed within a year, there might still be individuals and groups to offend in Afghanistan that we have not.
President Reagan cared about America more than about foreign nations perhaps on the financial axis. His trickle down theory was largely nationalist--he did not try to foist a globalist trickle down theory on Americans with a claim that investments in Afghanistan or the Congo would trickle down to the unemployed in Anchorage with slow library internet speed and no business district free wifi. Quantum entanglement in economic improvement at a distance simultaneous with ecological recovery hasn't yet been proven although string theory may have made its way unto the financial planning of the U.S. Government.
I have recently read a history of Iran and will start up Isby's 2010 history named 'Afghanistan-Graveyard of Empires'. My opinion is that the U.S. government does not sufficiently appreciate the opportunity cost of protracted foreign garrisoning of belligerent areas and that more effectively, less costly and better planning is set aside along with the moon development program as 'pie in the sky'.
Over time the indomitability of Afghan tribesmen will reassert itself through assassinations, terrorism, cross border alliances and raids and so forth as it generally has a couple thousand years. Iran is in the same boat and has occasionally been ruled by the Afghan tribes on the high plateau-perhaps that will recur. History is an odd, recurrent thing with weird cycles and surges. A protracted American investment in Afghanistan must inevitably be harmful to the prospects of ordinary Americans economically as the named for the Shi'a grandson of Muhammad President of the United States takes it to the Sunni Taliban affiliated people of Afghanistan.
The Congress should have put a limit on the Presidential foreign nation-rebuilding cum war ventures annually at 40 billion dollars in order to compel a higher degree of intelligent thought and to restrain the harm to the economic, ecological and economic security of the people of the United States. Fundamentally, the President is pursuing a Bush III splurge for the military industrial complex.

String and Gravity Theory Musings
Reading Steinhardt and Turok's book 'Endless Universe' fundamentally on a theory of a cyclical Universe the string theory mathematical conjectures arise as an implicit aspect of their theory. From encountering Guth's inflaton theory in 1980 or so at a Harvard lecture to the same era introduction to string theory through a lecture by Witten the data to advance a post-inflation string theory of a cyclical universe was set up for a seemingly inevitable development.
At the least, after reading this book I have found a better appreciation of string theory and all those extra dimensions that rise to ten by the time one gets to M-Theory. I have an essentially different point of view on space-time than the string theorists and perhaps of cosmologists necessarily not being a scientist myself. Philosophically one may contemplate these things presented by the experts and form different ideas of the meta-criterion of the universe the physicists address.
Steinhardt's description of the six smaller dimensions as a way for strings to be wrapped up into other shapes is quite simple and useful. With basic strings forming the fundamental material that in different configurations appear as all of the other elementary particles including electrons we have a one substance sub-quantum theory of a kind. It is thought that in the highest temperature regime of the early universe when it was far less than a second old just a Higgs field existed. Of course we are not provided yet with an idea of what strings are themselves made of.
The mathematics of string theory are said to be brilliant, and the concept of investigating the ways in which quantum mechanics exist in potential configurations with extra dimensions is a necessary part of learning about the potential of reality.
The dimensions referred to in the mathematics of string theory are not given in the same way as the evident dimensions of space-time we experience as living beings. Instead the dimensions are mathematical constructions such as a multi-dimensional table or graph might have. With higher math constructions more complex shapes can be produced, and shapes that make it far easier to bridge the explanatory gaps of the quantum mechanical world and the larger world of solid state physics existing in three dimensions of space and one dimension of time (a total of four).
Though the mathematics is excellent for modeling constructions of hypothetical particle-wave constructions and relationships for-themselves, the essential philosophical assumptions of space-time may be wrong, and not by any means necessarily right.
What of space does not actually exist, but only mass and energy does exist? If mass and energy are all that exist with the appearances of space and dimensions experienced by human beings just an experience of an interpretation of the construction protocols of matter and energy it could be that the quantum mechanical models pursued with string theory would tend to be off quite a bit even if the numbers add up because of the nature of the problem.
Gravity for instance instead of being another manifestation of a concatenated string particle construction in some form could be just an apparent force created by quantum probability distribution en mass of quantum particle-waves. Galaxies might seem to drift apart with an expansion of space because of concatenated selections of quantum probability distribution making the odds tilt to the galaxy/house perhaps analogous to a small world’s network distribution.
The cyclical universe theory of reenergizing membranes leaves a lot unsaid of course--why anything should exist to start with, why it really isn't a perpetual motion machine (and what is wrong with that at the largest scale?-I haven't got the answer myself for non-thermodynamic existential universe initial endowments). We tend to like cyclical Wankel engines of explanation.
The initial chunk of mass that would allow a universe to form--it could be a membrane or two separate membranes, yet the idea of an initial chunk of mass like a tightly compact jewel with undifferentiated primordial substance that when converted to energy inflates or bangs things outward into a Universe with mass and energy, seems to be the main interest for investigation. Some theorists distribute the mass outward into a zillion zillion particles or strings that 'virtually' appear from the vacuum and later condense under statistical association and mutual attraction into a larger gravitationally-like influenced clump that eventually becomes the big chunk of stuff of which everything else is formed.
I personally like the idea of a membrane with zero dimensions (or two) that with the spoken word of God vibrates and resonates in the membrane releasing the mass into energy (let there be light) that after three days (actually three hundred thousand years) becomes photons streaming to eventually reach us red-shifted as the cosmic microwave background radiation several billion years later. The era of matter lasted from the issuance to light for near six billion years, and on the roll of the seventh billionth God rested and allowed 'dark energy to take over beginning the re-expansion of space, or as I might prefer, the alteration of whatever construction of mass-energy characteristics actually form the Universe.
