Friday 20 November 2009 2:18pm on 22 Nov 2009 A DOSSIER ON DODGY PRIME MINISTERS

Blair will, of course, escape the Iraq 'noose', if only because he was a BRITISH PM, and we don't have the balls to admit the following truth: Even without 'doing God', he WAS the nutter he feared being labelled as - a devious one at that. But then, look at Thatcher - devious nutter. Brown - devious nutter.

The fact is that Britain, ROUTINELY, elevates devious nutters to leadership (and buttonhood). And there is a goodly supply of devious nutters lined up for the next succession. Until some SUPER-CHILCOT looks into the 'why' of this inevitability, we shall just stumble on into the embrace of whatever mega-plot is waiting to engulf us.

Classic IDG2! I'm afraid my brain curdles when such drama is trailed.
I noticed that was a young version of the monarch, not wanting to fence-sit. I bet they won't portray the CURRENT queen as pondering the 'ultimate sacrifice' on behalf of her subjects. But, as I have said before: should she do so, that might just 'save' her!
Friday 20 November 2009 08:57am on 22 Nov 2009 THE ULTIMATE ATTACHMENT (#77)

I wonder if Buddha were scheduled to give a talk on 'attachment', in Jerusalem, it would be cancelled?

I listened to the Radio 4 church service while 'rising' (no pun - oh what the hell) this morning. You can understand why Dawkins gets so upset. But our wishy-washy worship is nothing to the burden the Jews carry.

Weep for wisdom absent.
Friday 20 November 2009 7:11pm on 21 Nov 2009 "DO WHAT THOU WILT" SHALL BE THE WHOLE OF THE LAW.

Westminster - BBC - print media - banks - advertisers - corporations - military - lawyers - brewers - even schools, and a range of other amoral/immoral operators, ALL stitch up the unempowered - us.

We have a culture of 'might is right'; small wonder so many have caught 'Affluenza' (Oliver James). Small wonder kids want a fast track to stuff, fame, wealth and image, bypassing maturity and wisdom - the antidote.

We all belong to the 'Hellfire Club' now.
Friday 20 November 2009 4:25pm on 21 Nov 2009 ENDOW THE YOUNG WITH WISDOM AND (ONLY) THE WISE WITH SUFFRAGE. (#54)

I was on my feet, cheering, Cookie. Can we still legally (EU) march?
Friday 20 November 2009 09:38am on 21 Nov 2009 THERE IS A CANOPY OUTSIDE THE HADLEY CENTRE (#47)

But for how long? It has an 'aerofoil' look about it. . .
Friday 20 November 2009 11:41pm on 20 Nov 2009 NAME CALLING BRIGHTYANGTHING (#20)

"I am a solution based thinker but cannot see how or where one begins to exercise the necessary controls. Who would vote for a party anywhere in the world who tried to enforce the necessary measures. I wouldn't."

Hi BYT! Perhaps you heard the discussion of 'philosophy in schools' earlier this week? I too am a 'solution-based thinker' and try very hard to offer a solution before attacking those who live within the current lie.

I am of the opinion that, were we (able) to raise a 'critical mass' of the planetary population (starting with UK, right after we get our independence back) to their highest possible level of competence, through intake of philosophy and psychology (wisdom) much of the negative behaviour that currently characterises 'the good life' would simply wither for lack of fertile soil.

I do not see school as the means of presentation - rather television. I have laid it out elsewhere, but like the feed-in grid and the 'abstention box' on a voting slip, and a lot of other obvious 'goods', the Westminster Mind senses danger . . .

This is 'bottom-up' defined. No 'controls' or 'measures' are needed. Just a program-maker who can see a revolutionary good thing, when it's offered. I put a whole team together (Including a canny ex-'Ardent' bloke and a leading cartoonist - no fantasy bullshot there) and an easy-to-understand ethos. Zilch. This is Britain.

I am convinced that, as more individuals grow competence, the better they are at spotting charlatans and the less they wish to be charlatans themselves. QED
Friday 20 November 2009 10:23pm on 20 Nov 2009 MISSIONARIES - MEDICS - MAMMON (#15)

And I don't think anyone wants to address the unbalancing sequence of interventions (above).

Time for Pope, and Arch of Cant, to apologise to much of the world? What benefit a man if he gets God, medicine and food, only to end up with 'education X 3, and working for Mammon as he multiplies to foul his global doorstep?

This is the Age of Apology, after all.

COSMIC (from my post 5):

"I have more than a suspicion that it is THE ELECTRICAL STATE OF CLOUDS that is mediating the change of behaviour. The electrical link between Earth and cosmos is there, for those who wish to acknowledge it. the Sun is doing some odd stuff - WE are linked electro-magnetically to the Sun - and the solar system to the galaxy . . .

Watch that SPACE."

Orthodoxy has not yet caught up with 'THE ELECTRIC UNIVERSE' (google).
As above so below: cosmology is struggling to encompass a wide range of space-data BECAUSE ORTHODOXY ESCHEWS COSMIC ELECTRICITY. Our Solar System - this Earth - 'bathe' in the cosmos. Time to think electric, as the water comes under the door?

Of course, as with everything, there is a political angle. Once cosmic electricity is accepted, the destruction of Shuttle Columbia looks 'different' (view the video - read the 'explain-away') and the Health and Safety folk will be in hot water.

Interesting times.
Friday 20 November 2009 8:42pm on 20 Nov 2009 COMME SI COMME CA (#8)

Entirely possible! Or might it be the EU, a Superstate that takes Solomon's approach to headquarters' location, and has eternally un-signed-off accounts (has Gulliver called yet?) couldn't light a rigged stove in a Conclave. AND OUR POLITICIANS WANT TO BE PART OF THIS?!
