A New Movie and Lots of Questions

There is a new movie making the independent circuit, it is called "Wake Up". The documentary claims to be the true tale of a person who claims to be able to see spirits, angels and demons. This is the official website of the movie.

There is quite a lot of talk about a coming "awakening" and I have mentioned some of the talk in the past. Let us assume for a minute that the film is a true account of one man's life. Would you want to interact with spirits in this world? When people take DMT, they claim to be consciously shifted to another dimension and then interact with spirit beings. They then return to this reality, the guy in the movie sees them interacting with humans in this reality.

Who the heck would want to interact with demons? Why would you want to do such a thing, the guy in the movie (at least from the trailer) doesn't say he wants to. He says that he was told that his mission is to explain this other world to people, to prepare them for experiencing it here perhaps?

The current state of discussion regarding the "awakening" is that you are to look only at your emotions and feel the answer because your logic can fool you. Huh? It seeks to attack science and religion and becomes a religion of you, finding your divinity. I hate to break it to people; but, you are not divine, you are imperfect and so am I. The truth may be inside you to find; but, you are not the truth and neither am I, we are only parts of a totality.

The central part of this new religion is to return to oneness, to undue creation. To go back to the beginning of consciousness. If you listen to what it's proponents say then you will see this to be the truth. Sounds pretty good too, doesn't it, no need to learn or grow, laziness is rewarded by your becoming God; but, there is a catch. You have to be reactive rather than exercise your free will.

Just as with Transhumanism, you don't have to have wisdom or learn to be a better person, just follow the rules and we will tell you what they are. People are being by others telling them to stop being sheep; but, most people are sheep and a sheep in wolf's clothing is as bad as a wolf in sheep's clothing. It is still a lie. People assume that if they find out that there is a "New World Order" that they have woken up or even understand what it means, they don't.

In the United States and in other democracies, we stopped voting for our betters and began voting for liars. We were given the chance to decide things for ourselves and decided to vote for worse and worse scum bags because they promised us cookies. They reach out to our biases and greed and we vote for them. We vote for the sheep to get a bigger piece of the pie and then cry when the wolves take the pie for themselves.

Jesus told others to be good slaves. I say be good sheep. I am not impressed by the tea party politicians because they are still just promising cookies rather than morality. Secular morality that allows for religious tolerance. Yes, I am a Christian; but, I believe in free will and self determination. If people wish to "wake up", they had better wake up to the fact that they need to take responsibility for their actions and stop looking to scapegoat the wolves.

There is a new loan program for people who are UNEMPLOYED that will loan them up to $50,000 to stay in their homes for the next two years even if they don't use it to pay for their mortgage. I cannot find the article; but, here is one that focuses on part of the program.

As many people as possible will take the cookie; but, they don't deserve it. Heck, I would probably qualify and could have my home back and $50,000 (by the way, you don't necessarily have to pay the loan back, it can turn into a grant). I was divorced, my wages were garnished and I couldn't pay my mortgage so I gave the home back to Fannie Mae. I don't want nor would I accept a free cookie except from a loved one with no strings attached.

How do you know if you are a sheep, you take free cookies, cookies you did not earn and they always have strings attached, you ignore the string for the cookie. Wolves and other predators don't want free cookies, they enjoy the hunt. Scavengers eat off of the corpses of those killed by predators. As a sheepdog, I have the most respect for predators so long as they play by the rules and stick to the worst sheep that hold back the herd. At least predators make some effort.

Hmmm, that may sound harsh. It is. I think we should seek to move up the food chain, up the evolutionary ladder by effort and not by technology or genetic therapy, cheats and shortcuts. Remember that sheepdogs, all dogs, started as wolves and learned to restrain themselves. Imagine that, that a predator became today's modern sheepdog. How does that happen?

You see we can evolve, not just wolves, sheep can evolve also; but, it means taking on new rules and learning more, not learning less. As we individually evolve, we as a universe evolve. A new limit is reached, adjusted to and learned from. Each part does as it's part that it can at any moment. Kind of metaphysical isn't it?

You have to admit that not many writers can go from loans to the unemployed to our spiritual possibilities as a transition. Throw a dog a bone, good transition or what?
