I respect you Watchman on the Wall. That passage is to highlight a common bias of the ancient Romans. When a human sees themselves as "god almighty," then they can rationalize forcing any amount of servitude upon others "for your own good"! But as PKD said, "The empire never ended." https://letslearntogether.neocities.org/scispirit/Misc/PKD/experience

Where does "constitutional democracy" become corrupted? The only one I want to "represent" me is Christ, the perfect reflection of righteousness. For the only sign in which I shall conquer is in the Love of the Son of Man, every person from the unborn seed to the long forgotten.

Life is priceless. Pray for the Caesars to truly become Christs as you pay the tribute to the imperial cult and the "money spell" will be broken. (2 Timothy 3) More soon.

from 2 timothy 3, "terrible times in the last days" indeed.

When does self-sacrifice become self-harm? A person can carelessly throw their life away if they pridefully think of themselves as a "hero", "savior", or "innovator" by doing so.

And that is true whether we are talking about a modern metropolis filled with bugmen or suicide attacks by Jewish zealots against Rome in a 1st century Judea. Surah 2:87. وَعَلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامُ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

[In other words, I can deeply identify with your pains, but it cannot be resolved by becoming a Sicarii. Only peace can begat peace. 🤗🕊️]

this world could be perfect and i still wouldnt see having children as a good thing. by not existing you completely avoid everything bad and the necessity for anything good

@psychicnewborn - It is noble to love your unborn children so much that you never have them in order to protect them from the evils of this world, but what will we do with our own lives? Even a belief in "nothing" is a belief in something. By turning away from one thing, we simultaneously turn towards another...like the perfection of virtue and life forevermore.

Oh yeah, almost forgot 19th-20th century Korea! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan%E2%80%93Korea_Treaty_of_1905

...remember Ephesians 6:12? Manipulations and fronts like missionary tourism, televangelism by millionaires, non-profit industrial complexes, military peace-faking, unequal treaties, and so on are spirits of the anti-Christ and of the synagogue of Satan. Neither "Christian", "Jew", nor people from any particular nation-state. The Mandate of Heaven says Matthew 7:22-24!

Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's. Good luck on the gnostic path. I have heard that the erosion of the Abrahamic God is the erosion of the foundation of Western morality and everything else stacked on top. Some are so eager to subvert and destroy the foundations... The most progressive is the first to turn back when we take a wrong turn.

rice reveal... ricing linux is really just vanitas but for nerds. the smartest programmer that ever lived used a completely stock Ubuntu desktop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYE2Urp1n8s

very nice

As for the journal entry...Indeed, there are so many inversions/perversions of Truth within society that it can be hard to see past them sometimes...

...emphasis on violent competition rather than peaceful cooperation, meaningless notions of "rank" or "status" rather than true equality, taking by force in order to entertain personal wants rather than freely giving to fulfill other's genuine needs, hoarding rather than sharing, tearing down rather than lifting up, and so on.

In a similar way, sins are prisons built upon fear. Pride is often a cover for insecurity, while greed and lust can be futile attempts at countering a sense of lack and loss, however contradictory that might seem upon the surface. Temptation itself is to mistake hell for a heaven, and thereby become trapped in it.

Therefore, living as Christ still means persecution, for it is difficult to survive outside of a society that would constantly compel one to sin. However, there is incredible beauty and joy in sincerely trying to be steadfast in virtue amidst the chaos and pain. It brings forth an Agapic Love that is ineffable.

This Agapic Love can only be lived. It is known experientially, not merely "intellectualized" about. This is the true "gnosis".

Upon turning around it seems like the eyes are more focused on the door rather than the viewer. Perhaps I'm overthinking it, but it adds an interesting layer to the piece ... thank you for your art

good call-out, i had originally intended for the eyes to track the camera but then you would never be able to see around the eye.

come for the 3d art, stay for the derision of humanity

I care about people, though I cast out any destructive spirits that motivate them. Even the turning of the wheel of samsara is sustained by the three poisons of ignorance, greed, and hatred...all of which are transformed by cultivating wisdom, generosity, and kindness. Thus, our existence is purposeful: to become like Christ.

I seldom agree with your conclusions, but I like how well thought out they are. Too many others like going online just to foam at the mouth and post over-simplified rage bait memes about it. It's refreshing to see someone capable of critical thinking, so keep writing.

@eastathenaeum thanks, ppl should be more civil in public. i state from the outset that my goal is not to convince anyone, but to share my worldview, and i also want to learn what others think.

"Not quite content with leaving their own home in ruins, the space monke attempt to colonise a planet symbolic of war..." At that point, I turned off Animal Planet and thought, "If it will redirect military spending into terraforming research that could be adapted towards ecological restoration, then maybe there is a silver lining there?"

To be honest, I'd rather not have a Star Wars program preamble to another Cold War...*sigh* Well, at least there are no Martian societies to raid for slaves...As always, interesting document وَلِيّ.

...I know this underwater, but my first thought was Cydonia...Just trying to interpret why the death chime sounded.

your interpretation is as valid as mine, i took the same approach of just receiving signals from my brain. my take is that we go alone on a dangerous and risky path just for some symbolic achievement, after which only death (optionally rebirth) proceeds.

cydonia because its orange and there are cnidarians which kinda sounds like cydonia
