450 So many times in life we see the status quo enforcing compliance with ignorance. Some examples are due to religious indoctrination.

     Right now some of the best examples, are how many forms of Islam treat, and educate women! But almost no religion is exempt from some form of restriction in what can be taught to children and even older adults! And religion does not have a monopoly on what can be taught to their children, many things are not based on factorial evidence! Just about every society on the planet, feels that theirs is the best and most just society out there. And if this belief is right, then how can others come in and tell us how to raise our own children? 

    The truth of the matter is that every single person on the planet, except perhaps the newborn, ends up treating people differently. Perhaps it is because of their skin color, perhaps it is because of their body weight, their height, appearance, a missing limb, age, or language, but what matters is that we do not lose the ability to empathize with all living things. When we lose the ability to feel for others, we also lose a part of ourselves. Sometimes the suffering around us is so great, that if we do not shut off some part of ourselves, there will be no way to help them. In times of war, or disease, doctors and nurses could not help much if they became so intuned with what their patient felt that sticking a needle into someone and causing more pain would become too much to bear! Those of us who can not help the sick and perhaps dying, have to somehow deal with that feeling of helplessness. Burnout is a term that is sometimes used for someone who may have reached their limit on the stresses that they see around them. I was completely unaware when I was young that burnout was a problem even for many doctors and nurses who only dealt with newborns. Bringing new life into the world, you would think would make everyone working there such joy, even if there is seldom a problem at these times for both the mothers and child, the stress over time of having everyone demand so much from you all the time, may end up breaking down the defenses that we all need to have to protect ourselves.

    The world that we live in now is so different than the world that our parents had to deal with in so many ways, yet it is both easier and harder. Most of us has had to deal with old inequalities that were so rampant that we did not even think about them, and many feel that the past is the past, and that should not make them feel guilty for what other did before them. Yet an injustice done in the past will always be brought forth into the future in many ways. None of us live in a world so simple that, you are who you are, by the strength or weakness of your own character, we are all products of so many opportunities or missed opportunities of many generations. Could the greats like Einstein, Tesla, Da Vinci, and Edison, still have so impressed the world if they had been born in different times, or did the times make each person? Questions can never have an answer yet governments fight about these things when they are talking about the past sins of our fathers! (very seldom our mothers, but perhaps sometimes) 

    Now we are facing another crisis of hate and bigotry against our most vulnerable women, by men who are determined to tell them what they can do with their own bodies by attempting to take away a right to an abortion! The separation of Church and State has been one of the founding fathers' greatest beliefs, but then so was that all men were created equal (unless you were not white, a man, or a property owner then, not so much) but now 250 years later we are to have repaired those flaws, only to have politicians reading the very loud voices of so many in this country, scared that their white Christian beliefs are being removed by "those" people! (There are even those inside the Catholic church that are even talking about not allowing the president to take part in "Holy Communion" because of his stand on keeping Church and State separate. The President is supposed to keep his religion out of how he governs the whole country. Yet there are many in politics whose only wish is to get re-elected) Exactly who "those" people are, is not easy to say. It seems to vary on any given day as to who the politicians are talking to without ever saying the words "those" people. 

    Instead, they say things like, we need to stand up for our values, or we must not let others decide what we believe the country stands for. Knowing that whatever group they are speaking to will inject their own beliefs into the speech as if it had been actually said by whatever politician was talking. 

    We make life so much more difficult than it has to be, yet many will claim that life is difficult because "GOD" needs to be sure of who goes to heaven or hell deserve to, for without trials and hardships, no one will need to show how they can handle them. Me, I just think that some people are self-driven by money, power, and the need to be bigger than those around them, even if it is just in a small way. The people who have little or no empathy for others do extremely well in this world. But at what cost to mankind, wars dictatorships, and using man's own fears to pit one set of people against another to strive for a balance that keeps them in charge! They always need an enemy to set out to slowly destroy and in so doing keep those that he presents as his country's true people united behind him. The people that he chooses as enemies of the state always seem willing to go to war against him as they see their persecution as unjust, and therefore the Almighty will not allow him to prevail!

    Does this post have anything to do with the "plan" and how mankind needs to repair the planet? Well, that depends on what it is going to take to get the "plan" implemented? In a perfect world, which this is not nor ever can be, everyone would have a say in the reasons why the "plan" is the only long-term solution for Stopping Global Warming and Climate Change with no long-term costs, only benefits for most people on the planet, but not everyone. And that is why this post can be very important to understand. Would anyone who understands what I am trying to say about people in power that has Narcissistic personality think that a world-wide-plan that does not just repair the temperature-regulating-abilities of the planet but also greatly reduces the gap between the rich and the poor see it as benefitting them? Of course not, These types of people need strife and division to play one set of people against another, to remain in power by being the protector of the masses! Instead, they would now, have to rely mainly on their army that also has the same type of personality as their leader, but only by money, power, and fear has the leader, kept these people loyal. 

    This post is quite different than any other post that I have put out, in what it deals with, if I was a "someone", this could become problematic. Just as spitting into the wind would be. But I am not someone, so the chances of anyone in charge reading this would be unlikely. Anyone who would bring this post to a Narcissistic in power would be in greater trouble than I would! Dan
