Hai water (a haiku)

 

  Blue water would reach

angstroms of perception quarks

hai water to pink.

Colorfall (a Haiku)

 

     Pools of frozen time

shadow nature in quiet

     blue over pink landfall.

Hamas; The NAZI Party Next Door

 After the present conflict ends the Gaza will need to be on parole for twenty years. With good non-violent behavior then their graduation toward an independent status could resume. Like Canada or Australia gradually becoming independent as Britain relinquished direct control, Gaza too could become independent except perhaps I the fine print-possibly resembling again Britain’s relationship with Canada and Australia.

Hamas is the Nazi Party next door. President Biden and select U.N. personnel have suggested that Israel should cease fire before Hamas has been entirely removed from the Gaza. That is like suggesting that the Nazi party be protected and given a chance, with international nurturing, to recover and rebuild perhaps with a two-state solution so they can build up the Nazi military again.

Applying Wisdom to the Analysis of Theoretical Orchards (a poem)

 

The work is a slippery image
where inflation holds the keys
graduating ever for nowhere
progress is shooting the breeze

    Echoes of images draw
artificial intelligence dating
hope like figures scrimshawed
arisen for a while with ratings

    The truth was generations passing
economic handles disappearing fast
evolving atheist’s quicksilver massing
to nothingness with themselves in the past

    Bickering proofs pasted paper mache crowns
on pedestals of prosperity
that global warming rain drowns
with  Luddite ubiquity

    Wars conducted with tighter algorithms
fast as light laser bullets fly
unemployed forever targets fall to staccato rhythm
a democrat congress found a way for each to die.

Tunnel Vision (poem)


Organizations
and motivations
build the constructions
leading to war

  So look to the west
where fighting is best
with nothing but death
brought to the fore

  Violent Hamas
draws killing to pass
gang satanic mass
just death to see

  Never new in store
same old, same old war
like life is a whore
fait accompli.

Lebron James Didn't Really on a College Scholarship

 Lebron James never attended college. He was signed to the N.B.A. directly completing high school. Unlike most other N.B.A. players he never got a college scholarship. Giving scholarships to what are basically pro athletes is corrupt.

Colleges should give scholarships for scholarship; not sports. Sports in college should be intramural and purposed to build up student health. Colleges really ought to get out of the big man on campus sports focus and look toward becoming the best in the world with intelligence and education.

The United States has innumerable empirical challenges to day that can be solved only with better education of the populous. Better politicians, a better informed electorate, better philosophers,more quality scientists and a wealth of social science innovators need arise to overcome the reef of ignorance surrounding the island-like nation as if it were a coral atoll.

Pro entertainers comprise 5% of the top 1% of the nation’s richest. They provide good cover PR for the super-rich that don’t wish to be regarded as Scroggishish misers calculating like 100 lb weaklings how to skim off wealth from everyone in the country. Pro athletes in college should not receive scholarships though it is often touted how much revenue college sports- especially football bring to colleges. Creating an intellectual atmosphere on colleges is difficult enough without making colleges something like vast left-wing upper high schools churning out mediocrity to rise in business to make the nation a compliant plutocratic corporatocracy.

Colleges need to work hard to create a culture to support and develop intellectual excellence. It should not be a demographic dumping ground for quotas nor a place for developing athletes for pro sports. Sporting leagues should pay for their own minor leagues to develop prospects. Athletes that want to work in pro sports and yet attend college should receive scholarships solely on intellectual merit. Fundamentally the two activities should be separate.

Free Will and Non-Free briefly

 The determinism vs indeterminism argument is interesting especially from a Christian perspective. This is a very old discussion that has been gone over by the millions of words. God draws the elect unto the Lord Jesus Christ. There salvation is through grace rather than merit; that is no act of will or self-determination by a human gts himself saved. So the paradox of salvation by election of God- he will save those whom he will and how can mankind object since man is the pot and God is the potter.;some he makes for salvation, others for destruction etc. In quantum physics too there are many levels for simultaneous determinism and indeterminis as there is in behavorial psychology (ref BF Skinner). It seems there are necessary levels of protocol of contingent free will and automatic will existing simulatneously. It exists in human thought, quantum mechanical relationships and field phenomena and even in theology since God does hold people accountable for their actions.
