Even with my tendency to pessimism, I don't want to believe that it has, in fact, finally come to that.<br /><br />So I keep looking at my basic assumptions, at my reasoning, at the evidence that I have used to present my case with the intention of finding where I've gone wrong.<br /><br />Yet, it seems largely inescapable given all of that i.e. it's hopeless. A large scale correction --by Reality--is inevitable. I can't see that being pleasant at all.

They're all mostly decent people, but they are also simple-minded people who still trust the MSM, and they still believe (all evidence to the contrary) that Democrats are the Good Guys and Republicans are the KKK. There is just nothing you can say or do to convince them otherwise; unless it is stated by CNN, it isn't real. And they still think Obamacare will save them.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-53557067722488135602012-11-06T20:18:29.459-08:002012-11-06T20:18:29.459-08:00A small measure of hope?A small measure of <a href="http://pjmedia.com/vodkapundit/2012/11/06/the-pre-post-mortem/" rel="nofollow">hope</a>?<br /><br /><br />Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06708393262849661076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-44077137230486417962012-11-06T20:11:57.147-08:002012-11-06T20:11:57.147-08:00Yeah, I know.

If nothing else, He is the highest form of entertainment."<br /><br />This is so true. When one reaches the point of true self consciousness and takes on the burden of responsibility that comes from their own human re-cog-nition, ones bodymind becomes an expression of infinite depth, vertically and horizontally. I, personally, have reached a point that the seeking out and eradication of mind parasites has become better 'entertainment' than any television show or movie, because I am gaining understanding of Reality and Nature through the illumination of my own misapprehensions. On the flip-side of that, dwelling in Him (or Her) becomes a joy that manifests through my own lifetime idiosyncrasies, like God is supercharging my past through the vehicle of my imagination and offering me a glimpse of His Genius through this highly individualized container.<br /><br />Literally, I am participating in Him and with Him.
