  1. Lol.... Do you consider Buddhism and Yoga as religions?
  2. How low is your opinion of religion? Religion has become oppressive and does dulls the minds of many Yes Transformed means to Change....there is a continuity. Ended means to Stop....there is no continuity. Ok On the surface...it does appear that the getter - would be happier The problem is not one of lack or plenty as it appears....but that of Wanting. Always getting tends to result in boredom(emptiness).....the wanting remains While not getting is frustrating....the wanting remains Being satisfied with what you have is a one cornerstone of happiness I do not believe Unconsciousness means Nothingness So the Atheist and The Christian may not experience hell heaven or nothingness What comes next is any bodies guess and the possibilities are limitless Yes sexual discipline increases one fortune more often than not.... Sexual discipline is about the personal fortunes of the individuals involve... There is no such thing as safe sex...When dealing with unsafe matters it behooves one to be - Wary It is the Purpose of Scripture to protects from known risk...that we may be unaware of. True...more often than not their caretakers were unaware of the causes that led up to the traumatic events. yes...they were in harms way....and how they are connected remains unknown to me.....but they are connected. The word was a misspelling.... I guess I was trying to spell - eventualities... You do not have to be directly involve to feel or experiences the blowback of others....proximity may in some cases be considered involvement Every neighborhood/community is a form or type of society.....Many such black societies have been destroyed by Discriminatory Lending.. Did Predatory Lending Target Black Communities? - CBN.com Racially Discriminatory Lending Leads Black Communities Wealth Decline It is the greatest contributor to the that which impoverishes or pauperize us all.....Inflation Usury today is called Predatory Subprime Payday Odious Dept Trap High Interest Loan Sharking It Is My guess is @Pioneer1 did not see or remember these connections Usury is Greed dress as Service Those are not the only alternatives How? By putting them in more debt?? I would not be glad for anyone caught in a Debt Trap The Cause of Poverty is Greed The "stripping" comes from loss of current and future growth of Equity Even then if they do not have Allodial Title you are nowhere near owning. And their vested interest and stake Yes True....but not in every case In many cases the Banks are using Color of Law with the collusion of the Courts to rob you and or deny you your Rights. It is due to Greed Usury is one way greed is expressed Usually those decisions are made by Federal State and City Officials. Sounds like social issues True True How Conservative. inquiring minds would like to know? True True True True Though i do not know about the dump shyte?? True
  3. True The Christ is Awaken in You This World will be transformed The amassing of Wealth Riches and fortunes is no guarantee of Joy and Happiness. I Disagree Exactly.. That is less than half of the story... The individual who you say is sexually indiscipline maybe practicing safe prescribe sex based on knowledge and experience that you know not of While the sexually discipline individual is helping the poor and sick with little knowledge or foresight...as to wealth or disease It protects you from unforeseen eventualities That is them entering into "Voluntary Slavery" by going into debt to another....in some cases. Usury often destroys Societies as it does not add directly to GDP so to speak. We are born into a system and often cannot see its faults or the benefits of Another
  4. Cool so do I Sound like you are a Deist True...in too many cases When it ought not to be...the cases. Promises create Expectations....Expectations are often Distractions Distractions are not meant to deliver the Promise....hence disappoints. Yes...this true for many of us Religion is Organized Spirituality...... Which is used to Control Spirituality and thereby You/us - We become cogs in the machine of Civilization. Eschatology in this form is mostly a Western Christian Theology.....so it is true for the Christian West.... In Ethiopia Christian Africa We end prayers with ...... "World without End" The more things change....the more things remain the same True What will replace or where will we be Matt 24:26 "End of the World" is a Distraction used to Control and Manipulate The Masses. True Why are you sorry? True Great Question? It is Good As it should be Dad was Right True Tell us about this personal experience.....if you can. Name a few of these benefits? We do also have great Atheist too..Some Atheist may believe that they have benefited from not believing. Does unconscious means.....Nothingness True It is an Allegory True That is the thing.....Spirituality is destined to defeat True You see them as Restrictions....because you do not understand their True Purpose You shouldn't is correct....cause you most definitely can... Every action has a Re-action built in as part of the whole.... What one must be Mindful of is the Re-action Things are not always what they appear to be Cause and Effect. Usury is making money on money.....it leads to the Lenders become Master and the Borrowers their Servants/slaves. Usury leads to Concentration of Wealth and Worst Growth without increased Production and Development. Charging Interest on Loans in most cases is considered Usurious. Depreciation/Sinking Fund Loan Method My very basic understanding is as follows. The Banker buys the property for $100 and then tells you to make monthly installments of $10 for 12 months for a total of $120 True or how to interpret and execute
  5. Trump wants to be King....He seeks Power - The Divine Right God given Power of Kings who are a Law unto themselves. To do this Trump must Use The Executive Power to Challenge The Judicial Power while the Legislative Deliberates Power trumps Money everytime.... He is about to test the resolve of the people who must stand up for the Constitution.......Loyalty to Trump or Loyalty to the Constitution. Will the Sheriff /Marshals Office arrest a sitting President if a Judge demands/ writs it..... Will this Supreme Court defend the Constitution and the Rule of Law? or Will SCOTUS Reinterprete and or Repudiate and Strike Down Laws and Precedents. A common easily identifiable enemy....tends to unite those who relish in the suffering and oppressions of the defenseless.
  6. Whose reversal??? Thats always true.....Change is a Universal Constant
  7. True... Trump is a maverick...he may do it though Many have been doing so for sometime now..... Maybe more and more will - with more convincing evidence.... True... We can hope. This shakeup is a preparation for .... Fascism Republican style For sure.. Disclosure has been fine...if a little disappointing so far Revelation should be soon
  8. True.... Based on the people doing the Dismantling and Replacing what outcome seems mostly likely to be the Eventuality?
  9. Usually the media ask the questions for us.....but in this instance we had politicians local law enforcement and the media doing the asking.
  10. So it seems... The FAA is a government body...so it makes its information available to the public thru FOIA
  11. The Elite.. Do you think dismantling the DOE and FBI is a good thing? How do you know that to be true? Tokenism is a part of the system.... Jordon did not design the system...he was allowed to used the system True Is that not how the system is
  12. You can believe what ever you want.... I know the drones were a either a cover for what else was going on or their to gather more closer intel on what is out up there. Depends on who you say is doing the confirming... True...that's their primary responsibility... The FOIA is a law that gives you the right to access information from the federal government. It is often described as the law that keeps citizens in the know about their government. Under the FOIA, agencies must disclose any information that is requested – unless that information is protected from public disclosure. FAA posts a great deal of information on its website so before making a request you might want to look through it first. You may find that the information you are interested in is already posted. At the bottom of the page you will find links to a number of information categories. https://www.faa.gov/foia Our Trusty Media reported it was shut down... What evidence or proof do you have that it was not shut down?
  13. So which class Trump is in....? is Trump a member of the elite? You think Trump is dismantling the system? No....not a good example. Nothing that Michael Jordon has done or is doing is in anyway helping to dismantle the status quo..
  14. They lied.....so they are Liars Knowing they are liars....Why would you now believe them when they say they knew what it was? The public whom they are supposed to serve... How then can we trust them to be true tell the whole truth and scientific? What National Security....These things were not hiding and they were over many cities and countries even shutting down Military AFB touching a nerve is a nice way to phrase it. And that is a good thing? like who or what? give an example? For MLKjr and Memphis Sanitation Department workers it was about Injustice Wages Poor working conditions and the Right to form a Union So are you saying that Trump is going to support a strike? or Bring some civil rights organization and a governmental organization/municipality together? Martin was killed because he was empowering Black people and his growing popularity with whites made him a possible presidential candidate. True. Who is Trump dividing? Who is Trump conquering? Everybody knows division is the problem What is needed is common ground and mutual benefits Who would this group be? Yes....if you are standing in their way.
  15. Traore Launches Burkina Faso's First Locally Made Electric Vehicles Amidst Trump Order. Africa Reloaded Zim innovator unveils self-powering electric vehicle An electric car that does not require conventional recharging
  16. No.... I do not think they do They pretty much said so....during the recent drone crisis That is only true if it has to do with National Security.... Everything else that FAA knows should be available to the public.... Understandably so..
  17. True... The amount of these they are are receiving as cell phone camera tech evolves more and clearer photo will be seen.....astounding How you know that the FAA knows that ? Yes it could be military....but I do not think it is How so give an example True Divisive yes... Unifying to those who are fascistic and race mongers To me Obama is the most important.....
  18. True.... Yes... It's not a physical penetration of territory Some clear and some fuzzy.....mostly of the cell phone type Caught on camera: Possible UFO reported over New York's LaGuardia Airport | Banfield
  19. I have already address this question I earlier mentioned the Dogons...their cultural heritage clearly speaks of star people called Nommo As well as many ancient Christian paintings depicting what we today call UFO... The Bible and the Vedas also share stories that are very likely alien encounters Yes that is true.. Such action or use of tech is not considered an Incursion....at this time. It is not seen as an act of aggression to look see and or record from a stand point outside of territorial space air land and sea Why? The amount of new sightings due to cell phone camera and infra red is astounding. What is now being considered is setting up a clearinghouse to categorize and study the overwhelming amount of new footage.
  20. We have plenty of evidence and some even claim to have proof Our ancestor in and of many major civilizations has left us much information on them... Satellites operate above territorial airspace...Satellites take pictures from outer space. Entering secure prohibited restricted or national airspace of another country without authorization is a violation of international law ....tantamount to declaring war
  21. The Amount Types and Places they appear is surprising Some display shocking characteristics. They are not all identified as drones.....those identified as drones are man made Some are called orbs spheres and plasmoids..... Those thought to be plasmoids....are not thought to be man made. They did cause Wright-Patterson AFB to close....Wright-Patterson is one of the US most critical military facility - on home turf. Causing/forcing a military installation to close is no small feat. Could it be the Drones where use to confuse the public and hide extraterrestrial activities....as to the real nature of what's happening That could be true.. Is the US in charge or have control over what is/has happening. What if its a global occurrence?
  22. One such leaked or not being mentioned issue is what's called Orbs....being differentiated from Drones Good Quality recordings of Orbs thought to be or are being called Plasmoids Our time here maybe finite...but our descendants will be here for considerable longer than we ourselves - we owe it to them to Collect and Categorizes We do not know what they are.... We know that the phenomena is real...and we should find out as much as we can. If we are to ever gain any semblance of control...we should investigate research and study these phenomena True Do you think American Drones would be buzzing Russia and China?
  23. True... Was it only drones? That where propogandist want you to be.....Then the cover up lays all your fears about this to sleep Is it global?
  24. You should not trust or believe a liar. You know that when a governmental body lies it is both....a cover and conspiracy. YOU knew....what it wasn't. I still do not know...what they all were up out there? I know drones were up there.....among other things. Could the drones be red herrings? Was this a military program? Of course.. What about if....it is a global phenomena? Is it still categorize as national security?
  25. Then somebody lied....meaning officialdom lied Initially Officialdom said they did know what or whose they were....not ours or our adversary Not spying.....sniffer drones more likely I
