Some 2,000 years ago, our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ told us to perform miracles and to give them away freely as he had done. I realized several weeks ago that all of my books on spirituality, miracles and religion have been miracles in themselves. They had been inspired by the Holy Spirit, without which many of those projects would have stalled long before completion. My limited human mind would not have known the direction to take. So, all of my books in the category of Spirituality and Religion have been made entirely free as eBooks, and at-cost for both paperback and hardcover versions.

So, with regard to these books, it’s Christmas every day!

There are a few exceptions to this which are beyond my control. For example, Amazon has 99¢ as their lowest price. They may go lower, but only upon request from the customer. All other retail outlets, to my knowledge, allow them to be free—Apple, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Smashwords and over a dozen other outlets. Also, setting the lowest possible price for international distribution of print versions can mean a bit of profit for domestic sales, but I hope no one will complain for this “glitch” in the system.

As a writer, how am I to make a living? Social security is definitely not enough, even living overseas. Currently, I make a modest living by ghostwriting for my clients. My services are currently available from a couple of online platforms. To learn more, check out my ghostwriting services. I have written over 120 books and still going strong. Not only do I love to be of service, but each project gives me an opportunity to learn more about the world in which we live.

I also have non-spiritual books—science, history, self-help, myth & legend, fiction and more. My latest two non-fiction works each took several months to complete.

Terraforming Mars: Remaking the Red Planet, Ready for Life has been a labor of love with interest and research starting in the early 1970s with one of the first Mars missions. The book includes almost everything you need to know about remaking the planet to full terraforming—meaning a shirt-sleeve environment. This includes,

This includes a discussion of a breakthrough discovery that the surface temperature of a planet with a thick atmosphere relies not on absorption and emission spectra (greenhouse effect), but from the gravity-biased thermal capacity of the atmosphere, itself. Adding just the right amount of gas will help to bring the temperature into the life-friendly range.Hydrosphere—Adding just the right amount of water for sizeable oceans. This not only helps to stabilize the temperature swings from day to night, but also from season to season. And there is a sweet spot on ocean coverage which prevents runaway freezing.Biosphere—Adding life to the new, blue Mars.Politisphere—Ensuring that humanity’s second home does not become a tyrannical hellhole.

Terraforming Mars also includes, in the Appendix, the full-color, Blue Mars Atlas.

Warmongers and Peacemakers: A Brief but Critical Look at the U.S. Presidency from George Washington to Joe Biden, is a book borne out of a single question. While running for the presidency in 2024, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. claimed that Democrats had always been the party of peace, and Republicans had always been the party of war. But how true is this? The answer may shock you.

The book takes a rigorous approach to quantify the administrations of each president with regard to wars started or ended. It ranks each president and provides additional clues to whether the president was a warmonger or a man of peace.

And this work destroys some cherished beliefs about some of our childhood favorites. Facts matter, and history books have lied! Or they have merely left out unpleasant details. Researching the background for this book was a real eye-opener for this writer.

Law of Attraction PLUS book cover (front). Coming soon in ebook, paperback and hard cover.Law of Attraction Basics

The Law of Attraction is a fundamental principle of this physical universe. It is amazingly simple, yet incredibly powerful. Those who have mastered this Law have transformed their lives from failure to success. Even a modest understanding of this Law can produce pleasantly interesting changes in your life’s results.

My latest book, Law of Attraction PLUS: The Light Switch of Creation, gives not only the basics, but also a technique for removing the things you don’t want. More on that in a moment.

The Law of Attraction consists of two simple steps:

Get a picture of the thing or condition you want. This is your “request.”Enjoy having it.

What makes this seem complicated, for many people, are the hidden beliefs and attitudes in our own minds which sabotage our intentions. Some people never learn that words alone are not enough; attraction happens only when the words are accompanied with a powerful, positive feeling.

The book contains over two dozen Practical Applications which build your mental awareness and skill in using the Law of Attraction.

PLUS: Using Law of Attraction in Reverse

We all have things we don’t want in our lives. While the Law of Attraction can bring into our lives the things we do want, the PLUS allows us to remove the things we don’t want. This includes all of the mental barriers—the sources of self-sabotage—that tend to make using the Law of Attraction more difficult or seemingly random.

Law of Attraction PLUS icons representing (left to right): Theoretical Background, Historical Examples and Practical Applications. These are used throughout the book to mark specific sections by type.

This book is the result of 68 years of thought, study and experience with the Law of Attraction. If you have goals—and you should—you will want to get this book to help you use the Light Switch of Creation to get the things you want and to get rid of the things you don’t.

Throughout the book, I offer deep insights into the inner workings of this fundamental principle so that you know the WHY behind the steps of each Practical Application, increasing your chances for mastering the Law of Attraction.

The book will be available in ebook, paperback and hard cover.

Neovenator by Fred Wierum (CC BY-SA 4.0). This is the mascot of the Pangaea Sister Sites project.

If everyone knew the truth about the real, econo-political Left, no one would join except psychopaths and their slaves through blackmail, addiction and other forms of emotional force. Thus, it remains rather awkward to be fighting against a group that claims to care very deeply about the “little guy.” Ironically, the Left is all about Big, Collectivist Control structures, like Big Government. And the last thing of value from the viewpoint of Big Government is the smallest guy—the individual. Heroism and generosity are only real when they come from the individual. When they are forced upon us by the all-powerful State, they are not genuine, but coerced.

Today, the Left is closing in on their “finish line”—a godless, One-World government dreamed up and started May 1, 1776. The late David Rockefeller had bragged in his Memoirs that he had conspired for decades against these United States all for this dark, anti-human purpose. He was proud of his treason. And the Leftists are using every tool and lie they can get their hands on—especially through culture, science, education and government.

Finding Salvation Through Culture Pangaea Sister Sites book cover. Click on the image to get your own copy.

Here, we’re not talking about spiritual salvation. We’re talking about saving civilization from the know-it-all psychopaths. And using culture as the vehicle for that salvation has a number of plus points worth mentioning. People are naturally attracted to culture, through movies, music, books and other forms of entertainment. For too long, the Left has used culture as a delivery vehicle to indoctrinate the minds of Americans and the world to think a certain way. Very clever, indeed. Well, it’s time we use the same tools to help free people from the growing tyranny.

My latest book, Pangaea Sister Sites: Jurassic Link to the Modern World, took me over a year to complete, part time. The writing only took 3 weeks. But the book also has over 1,200, full-color illustrations. Long hours of formatting and arranging have resulted in a rather thick and heavy (nearly 5 lbs.) picture book.

Some of the illustrations are paleo maps by Dr. Christopher Scotese. He agreed to let me use his maps in this work. And now, all purchases help to support his Paleomap Project. Our world needs more creativity like his, exploring the beauty of science through software tools—like those which produced the maps of Pangaea and Earth over the last 180 million years. For the climate skeptics—the real scientists—the Scotese name may seem familiar. It appears on several graphs of paleoclimate data.

With several levels of entertainment value—dinosaurs, travel, cartography, geology, culture, exotic locations, plants and animals—this book could help bridge the culture gap. It’s only one book, but every such project can help turn the tide against a group bent on destroying civilization, killing off all the “useless eaters,” and enslaving what remains of humanity. When stated this way, it can sound rather bizarre to anyone who remains clueless to what is going on.

The original idea for the book was pure inspiration. I had just seen one of Dr. Scotese’s YouTube videos about moving continents and how Earth looked as those landmasses moved. This rekindled a childhood love of cartography (maps). And my imagination traveled to those past locations, picturing the younger land forms and the dinosaurs which inhabited them.

And then, my mind tripped over the idea of “sister cities”—an artificial link between cities to celebrate each other’s cultures and commerce. With Pangaea Sister Sites, however, we have a link based in solid reality—a historical link, because these locations used to be far closer to one another.

Here is a book trailer for Pangaea Sister Sites:

T-Shirt Culture and More Generic, Pangaea Sister Sites t-shirt with Neovenator dinosaur, produced by Zazzle at the Pangaea Sister Sites store.

In addition to the book and video, we currently have dozens of t-shirt designs, plus mugs with imprints from the book. What says culture more than an artfully designed t-shirt? The Pangaea Sister Sites (PSS) products include designs with dinosaurs, flags of the nations involved, maps of Pangaea with the city locations superimposed.

Other planned products include bumper stickers, posters, infographics, caps, and stuffed animals.

For more information on these products, see the Pangaea Sister Sites store on Zazzle.

Did you know that Leftism has infected science, religion and business? This fact may shock some people, especially those who remain confused by Leftist academics’ definitions of the terms “Left” and “Right.” And a growing number of people would be pleasantly gratified at this news, unknowingly applauding their own self-destruction.

I wasn’t always so political. As a young adult, I leaned toward the Left, politically, but only because I lived in increasingly Leftist California and had a need to fit in. It was also before I knew any better.

In my early days, I had grown up Democrat, but despised Communism, not realizing the similarities. Both promote Big, Centralized Government.

Since the terms “Left” and “Right” were first used during the French Revolution, more than 200 years ago, the Left’s definition hasn’t changed much. The one constant has been that of the collectivist mob—the evils of true democracy—where the individual outsider doesn’t stand a chance: Where 3 wolves and 1 sheep decide what is for lunch; and the smallest minority—the individual—has no protection against such a bloodthirsty mob.

Illustration of the execution of Marie Antoinette, showing the lengths to which Leftists will go to destroy the smallest minority – the individual. Painting: “Exécution de Marie Antoinette le 16 Octobre 1793,” by unknown artist (PD).

The definition for the Right has remained more vague—changing over time, and occasionally exhibiting self-contradictory traits. American economist, Thomas Sowell, discussed this problem in his book, Intellectuals and Society (2nd ed). He wrote, “What is called ‘the right’ are simply the various and disparate opponents of the left…. A rough summary of the vision of the political left today is that of collective decision-making through government, directed toward—or at least rationalized by—the goal of reducing economic and social inequalities” (Chapter 6).

One might credibly argue that the Left speaks of their own purpose in such glowing terms only to win gullible converts. Certainly, many believe the sales pitch, but history has shown that those groups associated with the hard Left have not lived up to the promise, or worse, lived up to equality in poverty, at least for most members of the collective. The leaders always put themselves above the so-called “equality.”

In the same chapter, Sowell discusses the beliefs of the intelligentsia and adds, “When we turn from such images to specifics, there is remarkably little difference between Communists and Fascists, except for rhetoric, and there is far more in common between Fascists and even the moderate left than between either of them and traditional conservatives in the American sense…. Communism is socialism with an international focus and totalitarian methods. Benito Mussolini, the founder of Fascism, defined Fascism as national socialism in a state that was totalitarian, a term that he also coined. The same idea was echoed in Germany, in the name of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, Hitler’s party, now almost always abbreviated as Nazis, thereby burying its socialist component.

“In short, the notion that Communists and Fascists were at opposite poles ideologically was not true, even in theory, much less in practice. As for similarities and differences between these two totalitarian movements and liberalism, on the one hand, or conservatism on the other, there was far more similarity between these totalitarians’ agendas and those of the democratic left than with the agendas of most conservatives.”

Two Leftists, Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler sharing the spotlight together. Photo: unknown photographer (PD).

Pundits in politics, economics and law have muddied the waters even more, but Sowell attempts to add some clarity, observing, “However, the left seldom has any explicit principle by which the boundaries between government and individual decision-making can be determined, so that the natural tendency over time is for the scope of government decision making to expand, as more and more decisions are taken successively from private hands, since government officials constantly have incentives to expand their powers while the voters’ attention is not constantly focussed on maintaining limits on those powers.”

Perhaps the sharpest focus I’ve seen on the issue describes both the economic and political dichotomy in terms of individual liberty and the size of government.

I’m not the first to notice that the larger and more powerful the government, the smaller and more vulnerable the individual becomes.

At first glance, this may appear to be purely a political concern, but closer inspection reveals the economic element, too. But even here, there has been a great deal of confusion generated by some, so-called experts.

Big government favors big business and big business tends to favor big government. After all, big business has the money and big government the power.

The size of a company is itself neither Left nor Right, but the behavior of a company will tell us its position on the econo-political spectrum. Behavior is the key. As Christ said, we can tell a tree by the fruit it bears, and behavior is part of the product or “fruit” generated by a person or group.

Big business employees populate the executive offices of the government bureaus, departments and agencies which govern industries. Anyone who thinks there is no conflict of interest involved is enjoying the extremes of delusion.

The Wall Street “Bull,” symbol of Leftist Capitalism—the form of capitalism which prefers Big Government and thrives with onerous regulations. Illustration: #3112617_1920 by ArtTower (CC0) Pixabay.

This doesn’t mean that every big business is necessarily evil. Every business which relies on big government regulations to suppress the competition is evil, and there are plenty of that variety.

It is perhaps safe to say that all publicly-traded corporations and many privately-owned companies behave unethically, favoring the collective over the individual.

Privately-owned companies at least have a choice whether or not to be evil; it all depends on their owners.

The publicly-traded variety have a fiduciary duty to increase shareholder profits, even if it means betraying their customers or breaking the law. The instances of these two forms of unethical behavior are too numerous to detail, here, but we need only look at the lawsuits against Dow (chemical), PG&E (California energy sector), and various medical corporations, plus the scandal of banker greed in the financial meltdown of 2008.

The fact that major corporations can get away with murder, and pay only tiny fines compared to their profits, makes the entire Wall Street system decidedly evil. Don’t get me wrong. I love the idea of capitalism—but only capital without criminality.

The fact that big, publicly-traded corporations tend to despise, and possibly even fear, the Free Market Capitalists, helps to bring our picture into sharper focus:

Far Left: New Definition

Far Left = 100% government; 0% individual liberty and responsibility. Collectivism. Examples of Leftism by this approach, include Socialism, Nazism, Fascism, Communism, Crony Capitalism, Corporatism, and, in general, big, centralized power.

Far Right: New Definition

Far Right would thus be the opposite of these.

Far Right = 0% government; 100% individual liberty and responsibility. Individualism. Examples of Rightism would thus include Americanism (Constitutional Republic), anarchy (no ruler; not “chaos,” mind you), Free Market Capitalism, and decentralized power.

It remains ironic that Leftists condemn capitalism for its evil behavior, and rightly so, but that they also conflate Leftist Capitalism (the evil kind of capitalism) with the Free Market variety. Not very smart. Such collapsed identity thinking devolves into Capitalism = Capitalism = Capitalism = Bad Capitalism = Evil. That remains 1-Dimensional thinking of the worst kind; it’s “identity” thinking. It’s the mindset of an infant.

Capitalism is merely a tool that can be used or abused.

Too many on the Right praise Free Market Capitalism, and rightly so, but at the same time conflate the better variety with Leftist Capitalism. Not very smart. Such collapsed identity thinking devolves into Capitalism = Capitalism = Capitalism = Good Capitalism = Innocent Profit. That remains 1-Dimensional thinking of the worst kind; it’s “identity” thinking. It’s the mindset of an infant.

Such behavior on both sides contributes to the confusion and the bitter divisions in our society which separate us. When we get rid of the 1-Dimensional, identity thinking foisted onto us by Leftist media, pundits and academics, we find that Democrats and Republicans share far more in agreement. The differences are merely one of perception and methods for achieving the same goals. Leftists have distorted that perception, appealing to the Democrat’s baser fears, and the illusion that Big Government will diminish those fears.

Leftist hatred of police is no more evident than in a face-to-face confrontation between protestors and riot police. Baltimore. Photo: Courtesy Reddit.

This is similar to the ongoing insanity of Qualified Immunity for police. Many Democrats push to get rid of ALL cops, because a few have been bad. No discernment. No intelligent discrimination. This is more 1-Dimensional thinking.

The Republicans push to protect ALL cops, because some are good. No discernment. No intelligent discrimination. This is more 1-Dimensional thinking.

It’s almost as if there were a hidden third party using the same template to divide society along multiple lines, getting people to identify with one polar opposite or the other based on overly simplistic “identity” thinking.

Both the Democrats and Republicans are betraying Good cops and betraying the nation as a whole, because of their low-intelligence, or, if intentional, because of their own flabby ethics. Each party is feeding their respective ends of a painful dichotomy (two-sided problem).

Just as both sides are blindly mishandling the capitalism problem, both sides are blindly mishandling the police problem—and the race problem, the gender problem, the climate problem, etc.

The resolution is simple, but someone is holding the problem in place so that most people stay divided. If Democrats and Republicans got rid of bad cops and protected good cops, there would be no more problem. No more reason to riot. No more destruction of America. And this would make some very powerful and rich people very sad, or even angry.

If Democrats and Republicans got rid of bad corporations and protected good corporations, there would be no more problem with capitalism. No more reason to riot. No more destruction of America .

Democrats don’t want to own up to their own hypocrisy, pushing to riot, praising rioters and terrorists. Republicans, like the Trump administration, AG Barr (before his resignation) and Supreme Court (supposedly Republican dominated) refused to handle this rather simple police problem. Who is behind their “soft” treason? Who on the Trump Team is giving the Commander-in-Chief bad advice? Who told him that the 2,000-plus page trade agreement—the USMCA—was a good deal, when it contains TPP-like language that Trump had rightly rejected, and it contains betrayals of American sovereignty? And what idiot ever thought a trade agreement needed to be so huge you needed a cart to carry it? A lot of sneaky language buried in all those pages.

Leftist America

For the longest time, Communism in America was anathema, at least during my lifetime. The Deep State, run by the Globalist-Leftists, has long had its enemies and sought to destroy them, for many years accusing them of being “Communists.” The John Birch Society (JBS) was one such targeted group. JBS has long fought to keep American Constitutional liberty alive, and was one of the first groups to recognize and to fight against the Deep State. They were accused of being “Communists” during the 60s and 70s. Today, that accusation is no longer used, now that Communism is becoming popular, and now that diehard Communists would recognize the misapplied label; they would easily see through the 60-year-old lie—a lie that your author only recently recognized himself. My apologies to the Birchers for listening to Globalists like Nelson Rockefeller and their sleazy friends.

It remains profoundly saddening that the first great bastion of individual freedom—America—is sinking into the swamp of tyranny it had once tried to escape.

Psychopaths tend to migrate to positions of power, like moths to the flame. And psychopaths lie to get there. They lie to people to make them think Leftism will make things better. This is an old trick and continues to work, because uneducated or poorly educated people are more gullible.

Thus, America has been, over the last 150 years, slipping more and more deeply into the pit.

Leftists Hiding on the Right

Photo of Kissinger and Rockefeller: unknown photographer (PD). Photo of Romney: Gage Skidmore (CC BY-SA 2.0).

For all of Trump’s talk of being a Constitutionalist (a good thing), a few of his more critical actions say the complete opposite of this claim. He has had supposed wins for the Right, but relatively little of significance against the real enemy—the Globalist-Leftists bent on destroying America. Don’t get me wrong, here, either. I love President Trump and his spirit. He’s not perfect, but he’s a trillion times better than either Biden or Harris.

But Trump’s refusal to handle Qualified Immunity for bad cops is helping the Globalists rip the country apart. Again, Trump’s USMCA trade agreement (NAFTA 2.0) is also a betrayal of American sovereignty, with its clauses giving power to multinational NGOs over America. And many of those clauses are similar to those found in the TPP agreement which Trump had rightly rejected!

Trump’s behavior has been strong and heroic in the same vein that Obama had been smooth-talking and sometimes eloquent—for Obama had been all public relations bluster, covering up clear acts of treason. Trump is a Leftist who calls himself a Conservative and a Christian. He loves big government—the opposite of the Constitution’s core theme and the purpose behind Americanism. Trump loves imminent domain—including private businesses taking private property, abusing the individual for the collective gain. Still, there’s a lot to love about Trump, especially if he succeeds in thwarting Leftist crimes.

Christ said that we can tell a tree by the fruit it bears, and all recent presidents have give us bad fruit—from Johnson to Obama.

Some Leftists do a better job hiding on the Right, but they are betraying their supposed base—the self-identified “Conservatives”—the ones who want to conserve the Constitution which changed the way nations were run.

Leftism Definition Expanded

Hard Leftists tend not to like individual heroism. This makes them far worse than Trump, who is immensely heroic. They prefer, instead, collectivist obedience and conformity. Kurt Vonnegut’s 1961 short story, “Harrison Bergeron,” provides us with a satirical view of the inevitable destination of such irrationality—a world where the talented are handicapped to prevent them from taking “unfair advantage” over others. The victim-oppressor dichotomy taken to its most absurd extreme. Vonnegut’s chilling dystopia has been adapted numerous times, including the 1995 television movie of the same name, and the 2009 short film, 2081. I strongly encourage the reader to view that short film in its entirety.

Leftists accuse those on the Right of being selfish, because of their individualism. Leftists tend to be control freaks. Your author is a recovering, former control freak, himself, so he finds it easy to recognize his old behavior in others.

But this accusation by Leftists tends to obscure their own selfishness. Leftists crave the safety of the collective, so they will selfishly sacrifice the individual for their own selfish needs, and justify it by pointing to the idea of the collective benefiting from the forced sacrifice—sometimes murder—of an individual.

Leftists proclaim to be freedom loving, thus they use the term “Liberal,” but in practice, the collective will only allow freedom if that free will doesn’t jeopardize the neat orderliness of the group. This is little more than the safety of the straightjacket and the padded cell—safe, but far from liberated.

This behavioral trait can be found polluting more than government and the economy.

Leftism in Science



Leftist corruption in science wouldn’t be the same without climate hoaxster, Michael E. “Hockey Stick” Mann (2019). His Climate-Gate emails helped reveal the fraud Leftists have been perpetrating on humanity. Photo: Joshua Yospyn (CC BY 3.0).

Have you ever heard the term “scientific consensus?” That is an oxymoron more sinister than most. So is the term “settled science,” because science is never ever settled by its most basic definition; science only ever finds relative truths—never absolutes.

The chief, but flawed paradigm of scientific discovery, skepticism, is defined,

skepticism n.—A doubting or questioning attitude or state of mind; dubiety. A methodology based on an assumption of doubt with the aim of acquiring approximate or relative certainty. [emphasis added]

See the part about “approximate or relative certainty?” But that’s not the focus, here. See the word “doubt?”

Scientific method rightly condemns bias in the testing of hypotheses and analyses of the results of those tests. But “doubt” remains a potent negative bias! Something is horribly wrong here, and history is chock full of examples of derailed logic stemming directly from this paradigm flaw.

There is so much wrong in science and in the behavior of scientists that we could fill a book with it all. In fact, my schedule for 2021 includes the writing of a book on this seriously defective paradigm.

On the topic of Leftism, science has become shackled with Big Centralized, Collectivist thinking in the form of “peer review” and “consensus” thinking. Too many central planners “killing” the heroic individuals.

Truth does not care about evidence or consensus. Every human could be horribly wrong, just as they were with the Ptolemaic hypothesis of a geocentric universe, or the phlogiston hypothesis entertained by the greats of 17th century science, including Sir Isaac Newton!

One prime example of this travesty—and there are many—involves North American anthropology and the now debunked “Clovis First” dogma. For decades, scientists were warned not to dig below the Clovis horizon, or they could risk losing their funding—or their careers. Think about this for a moment: the patently false declaration that “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence” can never be fulfilled if evidence is never accumulated in the first place—if scientists are bullied into not looking!

Leftism in Religion



Two forms of Leftist corruption in religion—(left) burning Joan of Arc at the stake, the opposite of Christ’s teachings; (right) two women, one wearing a Muslim burqa, and the other wearing the blindfold of ignorance (representing the hypocrisy of Leftists who are triggered by the poster, “Muslims are right about women.” Painting (1843): Hermann Stilke (PD). Photo: YouTube screenshot.

Religion has long been Leftist in its behavior, except at its earliest moments.

Christ taught freedom and responsibility; the church teaches conformity and leaving responsibility with those who “know better.” With the church, we went from extreme Right to extreme Left, with the biggest Left-turn in the 4th century AD all because of that political hack, Constantine the Not-So-Great. The church turned even further Left with the crimes of Emperor Justinian, some 200 years later.

Eleven centuries later, Martin Luther fought against that corruption, but the Protestant movement soon broke into their own versions of collectivist thinking, giving ego the upper hand, once again.

Today, many Christian groups will not tolerate “wrong think” as they define it. They do not tolerate dangerous questions that could weaken their own dogma. So, their members are protected from having to work with humility toward a greater understanding of God’s lessons. It’s almost as if they are implying for themselves an omniscience for which there is no evidence! They “know” everything that is needed, but they don’t yet have Christ’s abilities with miracles—an ability he promised those who would truly follow him.

And this last statement begs the question: “Who amongst the more than one billion Christians is actually following Christ?” I’ve experienced dozens of miracles, but I know with a shuddering certainty that I am not yet worthy of calling myself “Christian,” even though I do use the term, longingly.

Leftism in religion might also include the old perversion of biblical literalism (modern Pharisees), and the new perversion of “flat earthism” that has crept into the modern church. This last item too me completely by surprise. I was helping a believer out with writing articles for his anti-abortion website, and recommended a video similar to one I had created for my own channel. When he saw my rough draft of the video, he asked that I take out the photo of a spherical Earth, because many of his associates believed in the new “flat Earth” dogma. Now, I have another book title added to my list of projects—Round Earth for Christians. I’ll likely do that one before Evolution for Christians. So many wacky beliefs based on religious wrong-think—dogma instead of logic—literalism instead of the Holy Spirit and humility.

Solutions to Leftism

The primary solution to Leftism in all forms is one that involves both awareness and good critical thinking skills. And this solution requires far better education than even I received in school—long before the current swamp of Common Core lunacy. More articles like this one could help, but only if the person reading it is not already blinded by the kinds of certainty that prevent them from thinking in certain ways. And one solution to that potential barrier is a greater appreciation of the need for humility.

When you achieve your goals, be prepared for some discomfort. The Old You is used to a different way of living—a different lifestyle. Simply relax into it. Be grateful for the momentary discomfort; it will pass. Just persist with the new beliefs and attitudes so the prosperity will continue to last long enough for you to practice being comfortable with your new existence.

When you are brand new at a new outlook on life, there may be a tendency to fall back into old habits.

Life happens and new, incomplete habits fall by the wayside. That can be frustrating, until you put frustration aside, and ask, “What do I need to do next?” or “What lessons do I need to learn next?”

The answer that came back to me involved two steps:

Reasserting the daily exercise routine with which I had started, andFlooding each day with massive progress until the new routine is a natural habit.

My own routines currently include half-hourly breaks to do light exercises. My loving wife doesn’t want me sitting for long hours at a stretch. And I wholeheartedly agree. Our physical bodies were not optimized for a sedentary lifestyle, yet my work includes mostly computer-related work—research and writing.

Starting yesterday, I began repeating a mini version of my morning routine, which had been completely dropped out in the mornings leading up to Christmas. This mini version included,

A few moments of meditation to reassert the spiritual viewpoint.A few moments of spiritual viewpoint shifting, first several points in my office, then around town and then around the planet.Another look at my inspirational, SubscribeStar invitational video.And a few moments writing down any negative feelings which were triggered by this half-hourly routine, plus the positive, deeply grateful replacement beliefs.

In addition, I’ve implemented a post-dinner routine of 15–20 minutes (between half-hour breaks) to attack proactively the subconscious negative beliefs with the “dangerous” How and Why questions you’re usually not supposed to ask (see “Prosperity Engine — Update — Tracking Down the Dark Negatives,” for more details on this approach). At this point, I figure that once a day is enough for this “deep dive into darkness” type of activity.

Of course, each negative belief triggered by the “How” or “Why” question-of-the-day, needs to be replaced by a positive decision with a powerfully positive feeling.

If a positive replacement is compelling enough, I’ll add it to my morning affirmation routine.

Reversal Tactic

On Christmas Eve, feeling the spirit of the season, I realized that a laziness had crept into my life. On closer inspection, I discovered that a strong “must have” intention had plowed me into a dark bank of forgetfulness and failure. This was actually quite funny to me, making it easy for me to look upon it with humor and admiration, at ego’s cleverness at thwarting my forward progress.

Solution?

Gear shift knob, with reverse gear marked “R.” A handy metaphor for building our Prosperity Engine.

Easy! Whenever there is a feeling of grinding gears with any and all forward progress, try reverse gear.

Ego, the physical, false self wants to protect itself against erasure and replacement by the true, spiritual self. Spirit is invulnerable, so physical self-sacrifice is easy from that viewpoint. But so is spiritual self-sacrifice.

Taking full responsibility for the blockage means taking the viewpoint and intention of ego’s selfish self-protection. But taking responsibility makes it impossible to be victim to ego’s intent. Taking responsibility also sucks the persistence (time) right out of ego’s temporary barrier.

When you take full responsibility for a barrier or problem, you return that barrier or problem to its timeless, “instant of creation.” The time dimension for that problem rotates in the time stream, going from infinitely long potential duration, to zero (infinitely thin) duration. The next moment, the spiritual “cursor,” in the physical realm, moves to the next moment, and suddenly, the problem is in the past; you are free of that problem entirely.

Remember what Christ said about the truth setting you free. That truth unavoidably involves responsibility.

An upside-down car is not exactly what I had in mind for the Reversal Tactic, but inspiration can lead you to many seemingly bizarre ideas which work like a charm. Photo: #1572638_1920 by LeeBest90 (CC0) Pixabay.

Even the intention of gratitude (composed of love and humility) unavoidably triggers responsibility. When gratitude is used to dissolve problems and barriers, the responsibility is aimed at those problems and barriers. When gratitude is used to help a creation persist, the triggered responsibility is also aimed at any and all barriers or negative considerations which would otherwise block that persistence.

Responsible gratitude is an act of generosity.

One example of this Reversal Tactic is to wish for everyone else in the universe to accomplish your goal before you do. This completely eliminates the sense of urgency or importance. But the commitment is still there. When you finally achieve the zero ego point—between desire and aversion—the goal is ready to ripen. Letting go of the picture of your goal, while maintaining full confidence that it is done, allows the goal to manifest in physical reality. Even to me, this felt counterintuitive, at first, but it starts to feel more and more natural, especially once you see it work on things that are not nearly as important to ego.

In summary, using an attitude that is the reverse of your goal can sometimes help unstick ego from building up a barrier, and restart the forward progress.

Prosperity Engine Progress

I’ve been making some interesting breakthroughs, including starting to see more clearly my spiritual intentions. There is still a lot of darkness to clean up, but large swaths of awareness now allow me to see some of the patches of fog. Plus, I can sense more easily when an intention has become stuck and needs the above reversal tactic.

I’ve also noticed that I occasionally become too insistent about my current, Prosperity Engine goal—$5 million in my local bank. Commitment is good; but importance can sometimes get in the way. The trick is to have commitment that isn’t leaning toward desire and away from failure. Lately, I’ve included in my meditation an exercise to push toward the goal, and then a push away from it, observing the effects it has on me and my environment. I’m starting to see more clearly with spiritual eyes.

I also had some breakthroughs in cleaning up specific items in my own subconscious. I had already discovered a previously hidden belief in my inability to follow through as promised. I traced that back to an event at 9 months of age where my late mother was enraged that I had forgotten to put away my toys. Yes, 9 months of age! At that point, I still did not fully understand English, but I understood the emotion my mother had used. I was terrified and confused. I couldn’t understand why I would have forgotten to put away my toys. But there they were—sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor and not on the white bookshelf next to the trailer door.

I felt the desire to do good, and the sense of self-betrayal that became drilled into me by my mothers outrage. Though she had only made things worse for me, at the time, suddenly, upon taking full responsibility for her actions against me, I could only feel the deepest love for her. After all, we are all in this school together. We are all guilty of far worse crimes and need to forgive, plus take 100% responsibility for everything.

With this breakthrough, success now seems even more inevitable.

Steady, methodical progress. The tools are all here. All I need to do is to keep using them and success is ensured.

Coming Up Next

In the next day or so, I’ll have another blog on “The Dimensions of Leftist Corruption.” And I used to be a Leftist. Imagine that! I’m getting smarter in my “old age.”

The Martin family has had a wonderful Christmas and we hope yours was wonderful, as well.

Though 2020 has brought us many challenges, it has also helped more of us wake up to what is truly valuable in life—family, friends and each other. May the coming year be full of blessings and growth for you and yours.

From the Martins to all of you.

Fear can make people do some strange things—things they would not otherwise consider doing. Ignorance of facts can sometimes lead people into irredeemable fear. At the very least, ignorance can lead people to the wrong conclusions.

So, it’s interesting when a “friend” on one topic will be an “enemy” on another topic—holding opposing views. This is a situation ripe with potential for cognitive dissonance, until the mismatch is resolved.

Retired theological professor, David Ray Griffin is also a 9/11 investigator who shares many of my own viewpoints and discoveries on that tragic event in 2001, but holds a completely opposing view on climate change—a viewpoint I used to have, before I “succumbed to the religion” of facts, logic, reason and science basics.

A similar situation exists with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on vaccine dangers and climate change. He shares in Griffin’s climate ignorance.

With politician and mathematician, Lord Christopher Monckton, he seems to be a genius on climate science basics, but remains in relative denial or ignorance about 9/11 facts. He simply knows too many government secrets which tell him that 9/11 could not have been an inside job. We have to wonder how many of those “secrets” were planted evidence or group think to lead people like him astray. After all, if Globalist-Leftists have enough money to pull off 9/11, they would also have sufficient funds to plant all manner of confusing evidence in major governments around the world.

Dr. Patrick Moore, one of the founding members of Greenpeace and an environmental scientist, is a genius on climate science, but seems blind on the potential problems of GMOs. His rhetoric suggests that he is being paid to promote genetically modified organisms. Of course, some Warming Alarmists have accused him of being paid by Big Oil to push his “climate change denial.” Some Warming Alarmists have even accused me of working for big oil, which is ironic, because their movement of climate change hysteria was implemented by Biggest Oil Rockefellers. Oops! Facts like these reveal the weakness of using such logical fallacies.

Making Sense of the World

We’re all trying to make sense of the world. And we each are working from our own, limited set of information and experience.

After 70 years of observations and investigations, it seems clear that there are patterns in society and nature that can help us make sense of things. One of those patterns includes a form of chaos I’ve dubbed “incongruity.” This is when politicians (and others) do confusing or contradictory things. Quite often, they have a hidden agenda—they say one thing, and do something else entirely. Obama was a perfect example of this type of sleaziness.

We also see this with conflicts which go on for decades, unresolved. We see it with the Medical Industrial Complex, spending billions on cancer research, but never arriving at a cure. And we see it with the black Democrat politicians who never seem to make things better for their black constituents.

The Seeds of Evil

When people are terrified of possible, imminent death, they can be motivated to do great evil.

The Globalist-Leftists and their puppet news media have planted many seeds of fear and desire over the last two centuries.

In 21st century America, there seem to be three main political camps—the Democrats, the Republicans and the independents, which might include other party affiliates or simply people who don’t like political parties.

Currently, in name, the two main parties seem to be divided from each other into their two camps by emotion, at least at the grassroots level. The fearful and the brave.

Those who are fearful demand Big Government to protect them. The level of fear, of course, varies from individual to individual. And there are exceptions to the emotion “rule.” But as a rule of thumb, it seems exceedingly accurate, judging from their behavior—fear of financial difficulty (minimum wage), fear of big business (government regulations), fear of climate change (carbon taxes), fear of big bankers (Federal Reserve, ironically owned by big bankers), etc.

Election Fraud has been assisted by Leftist Capitalists on Wall Street. Confused? See The True Left-Right Paradigm in the previous article. Image: #3112617_1920 by ArtTower (CC0) Pixabay.

Needing Big Government is a Leftist attitude (see my article on “The True Left-Right Paradigm,” for clarification). It is fear-driven. It suffers from “negative ego”—self-concern to avoid pain or danger.

The True Right is built largely of the brave who long for tiny government. They merely need government to ensure there is a safe harbor from war and corruption so they can live their lives in relative peace, and so that they can create without excessive disruption.

While some may see the seeds of potential fear in that desire, we must clarify that Americanism is not based on that negative emotion, but on pragmatism, hope and faith in God.

Those on the True Right have allowed Leftists and Globalists to infiltrate their ranks. They have tolerated the growth of the federal government, in direct violation of the 10th Amendment, because such change seemed relatively small and reasonable, at the time.

And when the federal government had grown so large that a complete changing of the guard with each new administration had become too cumbersome, Civil Service protections were set in place, giving birth to the monster now known as the “Deep State” or “Swamp.”

If only the Right had insisted on following the law, we wouldn’t be in such a mess right now.

Election Fraud and Justifications

For over half a century, the Rockefellers, and other Globalist-Leftists, have carefully built up the mechanisms of fear, pushing the fearful citizens more deeply to the Left, and more heavily polarizing the two sides of the econo-political dichotomy.

They have used fear of many things, combined with fake solutions to appear to “solve” their manufactured fears. These included,

Fear of decades of personal inconvenience, solved by allowing potential mothers to murder their unborn children, euphemistically referred to as “choice.”
Fear of imminent death from climate change, solved by carbon taxes (paid to rich politicians), and other fanciful fictions.
Fear of pandemics, solved by Draconian laws to strip away liberties, but jeopardizing lives and livelihoods—destroying millions of lives to save a few dozen, perhaps. Don’t get me wrong. One death is too many, but killing people with lockdowns is sheer stupidity just to save others.
Fear of terrorism, solved by bigger government and the solidification of the surveillance state.
Fear of war and economic damage, solved by forcefully making “the world safe for democracy.”

Each of these supposed solutions have endangered us in ways some of us are now only beginning to understand.

For instance, in 2000, Dr. John Christy was a lead author for the IPCC—the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. One day, while at lunch with fellow scientists, the conversation turned to the topic of bending the numbers to help make the climate alarm seem more vividly dangerous. Dr. Christy was shocked. Let’s be clear, here: That’s scientific fraud! Their conversation to perpetrate that fraud constitutes a conspiracy by definition (see my book, Dirt Ordinary: Shining a Light on Conspiracies).

A few years ago, I was looking for new freelance writing clients online and contacted a Las Vegas, Nevada marketer for a potential ghostwriting gig. During the online conversation, the topic turned to my then current projects, one of which was my book, Thermophobia: Shining a Light on Global Warming.

Suddenly, the conversation turned somewhat hostile. The potential client attacked my ideas and me personally, saying that I was deluded—tricked by “big oil.”

How awkward!

At this point, I suspected that I wouldn’t be having him as a client, and wondered how gracefully to end the conversation, or, if possible to repair the rift and humbly do some project for him without ruffling any more of his feathers.

Before the conversation ended, he admitted that climate change is a big enough problem that he has lied about the facts, on occasion, to help make a point. What a troubling admission.

Fast forward to 2020—the year of uncomfortable surprises—with rampant election fraud, and unconstitutional changes to voting procedures implemented by public officials in numerous states, including Nevada (remember my potential client?).

One recent YouTube video on this topic mentioned that Democrats had justified election fraud with a deep fear of climate change destroying the world and President Trump’s “climate denial” accelerating our mutual demise.

The video didn’t elaborate, name sources, or provide evidence for this motivation, but that remains relatively unimportant to this discussion.

There is already abundant evidence that the average Democrat is motivated by fear and desires for big government, which is anti-American. So, it’s not surprising that Democrat-dominated school systems and educational groups tend to promote the idea that America is bad, patriotism is evil and nationalism is unsophisticated.

Then, yesterday, on one of my now infrequent visits to Facebook, one of my fellow climate realists—a fellow from Italy—posted a rather provocative meme about the toxic nature of the “extreme pro-life” movement. From that, I learned that he is pro-abortion—the “choice” to kill another human being because he or she is an inconvenience.

Think about that for a moment. Justification to kill someone because they are “inconvenient.”

This is made more sinister by phrases which dehumanize the pre-born infant—things like “lump of cells,” “not human” (a lie), “sub-human,” “human weeds,” and the like, used by eugenicists like the Rockefellers, Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger, Adolph Hitler and Joseph Stalin—all Socialists in behavior or personal declaration.

Democrats in these United States have gone so far as to make it “okay to punch a Nazi,” never mind that the target of their ire also hates Nazis. Such thuggery, justified by “words that promote hate,” is far more like the violent tyranny of Fascists and Nazis in the early to mid 20th century, than the kind-hearted party that “looks out for the little guy.” The hypocrisy of the Leftists (including many Democrats) has reached the proportions of monumental stupidity—a form of self-imposed reduction in intelligence used to perpetrate a lie.

Solutions to the Justification to Do Evil



Jesus provides us many lessons which could help us overcome the Election Fraud. One of them is the spiritual “discontinuity” of turning the other cheek. Image modified: Darkened and higher contrast (after all, the event took place at night).

Jesus Christ had some wonderful suggestions that most Christians still do not understand. One of those suggestions, fake Christian (closet Muslim, Socialist and traitor), Barry Soetoro Obama, ridiculed on one occasion—the notion of turning the other cheek.

Christ said not to resist evil. The reason is quite simple and profound. Resisting evil makes it stronger, and it makes the self more evil (egoistic). What Christ did in the wilderness is a perfect example of treating evil the right way: Christ simply turned his back on it.

Now, there may be a time to take up arms. I still have much more to learn about Christ’s wisdom. King David had taken up arms against his own king when that leader had gone insane. David had refused to allow the Ark of the Covenant to be brought into Jerusalem during his reign, because his hands had been bloodied; he didn’t feel worthy. He left the building of the temple as the new home for the Ark to his son, King Solomon.

But turning the other cheek has some hidden power in it. When we give up our outrage, and instead become grateful for the challenge, we open the doorway between our physical self and our true spiritual self. We awaken the child of God behind our identity. Suddenly, we become at-one with God Himself, just as Christ did. But doing this, we are truly following Christ.

And my discoveries while experimenting with miracles taught me a deeper meaning of Christ’s lessons—that taking 100% responsibility for the acts of others against us, also makes us at-one with God, just as Jesus was at-one with the Heavenly Father. This is the spiritual sweet spot where miracles become easy. After all, a miracle really is only a well-formed prayer to God. And getting this close to the Heavenly Father makes the right message easy to send—a message that is consistent with the conscious thought behind it (reference: Four Elements of God).

The so-called “failed prayer”—the one with an apparent “no” answer—is merely one where the “heart” (the hidden subconscious feeling mind) is not pointed in the same direction as the conscious mind! This disconnect—this inconsistency—has been the source of great confusion and frustration, and is easily resolved by adopting the four elements of God.

The specific justification tied to fears of climate change can be solved another way.

Solution to Climate Change Fears

Climate change is a fake issue. While there are very real disasters from weather, there have always been such disasters. Ironically, global warming is the best type of climate change, especially when climate has done nothing but change for the last 4+ Billion years, and especially because we currently live in an ongoing Ice Age.

This fake issue started with fears of global cooling, with unrealistic projections of an unending trend toward a colder planet. Then, when climate “surprisingly” changed directions after the mid-1970s, fears of global warming were rolled out as justification for “urgent action.”

Fear can be destroyed with the right context. And if the fear is based on lies and half-truths, fear can be dispelled with easily understood and widely known facts.

The Globalist-Leftists (like the biggest oil Rockefeller family) have been quite clever about their indoctrination of the fearful Left. They have included a nifty shield in their ideology—an armor of protection against lie-destroying facts. We might call it “hate speech” labeling. Anything that disagrees with the Left is automatically “hateful,” so it can and should be ignored, so they say.

Thus, explaining climate science to a Leftist becomes highly problematic. More than likely, they won’t listen, or they will have clever band aids to patch up their own ailing logic.

Here’s where the magic happens: Convert facts into memes the Leftist will immediately recognize as true, but which erode their “card house” of lies. Conservatives need to brainstorm for the best possible memes. With God’s help, divine inspiration will give us all we need.

As an example of a potent meme, consider the following example. Several months ago, some printed posters started appearing all over a city in the eastern United States. It said, “Muslims are right about women.” This sounds rather innocuous, but the effect was profound. It triggered many Leftists into outrage, because someone had revealed their hypocrisy between tolerance for Muslims and insistence on Feminist freedoms. Fundamentalist Muslims do not allow feminist freedoms. One lady called police over this obvious “hate speech,” demanding that someone be arrested.

Planting a seed like that in the minds of less radical Leftists could end up setting them free. Naturally, it won’t work for everyone, but moderate Muslims and first-wave Feminists would likely thank us for helping to pull back the curtain on blind dogmatism.

With this strategy in mind, I offer my own book, Climate Basics: Nothing to Fear, as a template for building numerous memes.

The book takes some of the most popular lies about climate change and turns them on their head. It uses widely-known facts to pop the balloon of fear. Here’s an example:

Hot air rises.

Likely everyone knows this—anyone who has seen a fire, a hot-air balloon, or steam rising from a hot cup of coffee or tea.

This is one factor in the creation of wind. All that hot air rising means air is moving. That movement is caused by temperature differences.

And knowing this one, simple fact, is the starting point for debunking the Leftist fear that global warming will create a greater number of violent storms. The opposite is true. Getting rid of polar cold, with the tropics changing very little, the overall thermal gradient of Earth diminishes greatly—changing from a “high-voltage” climate to a “low-voltage” atmospheric system.

So, here’s the recommendation:

Buy the Climate Basics ebook (only 99c; paperback also available).Discuss with your fellow patriots.Brainstorm to find the catchiest memes.Share those memes on social media like crazy.Engage with Democrats and other Leftists on climate, asking provocative questions or making equally provocative statements that plant the seed that will grow into a tree of discontent with the lies.And finally, let me know of your successes, so I can share them with others.

Consider the idea that liars will only tell the truth when it serves their purposes. So, it should not surprise us when one group which is far more evil than its opposition will tell the world how great they themselves are and how evil is their opposition. To expect anything else from a liar would be an extreme of naiveté.

Or would it?

Consider this wrinkle: Those who are evil gain the power to define both sides—with the end result one of attracting certain opposing personality types to each end of the dichotomy. Thus, such a carefully-crafted definition can be used as a weapon to divide a society—to fracture it on purpose. Why do this? To gain more power.

Chaos creates opportunities to shift the balance of power radically. The Russian Revolution near the end of World War I is a perfect example of this.

The terms “Left” and “Right” came to us from the aftermath of the French Revolution. The freedom-loving mob were on the Left, and the orderly aristocrats were on the Right.

In the late 1800s, Socialism was considered “sophisticated” Leftism. Ironically, moving into the 20th century, some very prominent industrialists voiced their admiration for Communism or Socialism, including the western financiers who backed the Russian Revolution. This included the Rockefellers who liked the fact that popular movements could be manipulated to gain more power.

The British royal family and big business tycoons admired Fascist Mussolini and Nazi Adolph Hitler, remarking that their brand of Socialism seemed efficient and worthy of support.

In fact, during World War 2, Prescott Bush and the bank for which he worked were caught aiding the enemy—Nazi Germany. Remarkably, they were never convicted or even tried for treason. Prescott’s son and grandson each went on to become president of these United States.

During the confirmation hearings for the nomination of Nelson Rockefeller as vice president, one congressman asked about the fact that one of Rockefeller’s companies aided the enemy, the North Vietnamese. Curiously, after Rockefeller pleaded ignorance, the question was never pursued, and the potential treason was swept under the carpet.

The late David Rockefeller bragged in his Memoirs that he had conspired for decades against the best interests of these United States. He was proud of his treason. As a Globalist-Leftist, he viewed the United States as an impediment to the far more desirable and sophisticated One World Government, like the United Nations—an organization which the Rockefeller family helped to establish, even donating some of their Manhattan land for the UN international headquarters.

Leftists don’t like to admit that they had anything to do with Nazis and Fascists, even though their behavior and goals were amazingly similar to those of other Leftist groups. So, Leftist academics and unwitting Rightist scholars placed Nazis and Fascists on the Right. That’s like Ukrainians placing Uncle Joe Stalin on their Christmas shopping list, even after the starvation pogrom which killed millions of their fellow countrymen.

A New Definition for the Left-Right Paradigm



Rightist and American Constitutional Conservative, Thomas Sowell. Photo: © Uncommon Knowledge.

How do we achieve a definition which looks more like reality and helps to clarify, rather than muddy the waters?

American Conservative writer, Thomas Sowell, examined the confusion over Left vs. Right and came to the following conclusion: “By contrast, the vision of the left is one of surrogate decision-making by those presumed to have not only superior knowledge but sufficient knowledge, whether these surrogates are political leaders, experts, judges or others. This is the vision that is common to varying degrees on the political left, whether radical or moderate, and common also to totalitarians, whether Communist or Fascist” (Intellectuals and Society, 2nd Ed).

Sowell adds this warning to Democrats: “Democratic versions of collective surrogate decision-making by government choose leaders by votes and tend to leave more areas outside the purview of government. However, the left seldom has any explicit principle by which the boundaries between government and individual decision-making can be determined, so that the natural tendency over time is for the scope of government decisionmaking to expand, as more and more decisions are taken successively from private hands, since government officials constantly have incentives to expand their powers while the voters’ attention is not constantly focussed on maintaining limits on those powers.”

With this wisdom in mind, it seems that the following simplifications can be made regarding the Left-Right paradigm.

Far Left =
100% government; 0% personal liberty and responsibility
Far Right =
0% government; 100% personal liberty and responsibility

This goes for all dimensions of a society—economic, political and even legal.

This new definition fits virtually everything very well. If there are any discrepancies, they likely indicate a flaw in the prior paradigm and its definitions. For instance, White Supremacists are frequently placed on the “far right,” but their behavior is one of tyrannical abuse of some minorities—which is purely Leftist behavior, very similar to the Nazi brownshirts rounding up Jews, or the Fascist blackshirts brutalizing their opposition.

When we view current events from this new perspective, we start to see things we never before realized.

For one thing, every agency, bureau, department and regulation of the federal government, in these United States of America, that is not mentioned in the Constitution or its amendments, is illegal! The 10th Amendment makes this abundantly clear. But understanding that the Left is driven by fear and lies, helps us see more clearly how we could go for over a century and a half with such blatant criminality hiding in plain sight. The Left loves Big Government; the True Right loves tiny government and trusts the individual to do the responsible thing.

If only politicians had obeyed the Primary Law of the land—the Constitution—we would never have needed Civil Service protections which guaranteed the creation of our current Deep State Swamp. A tiny, Constitutional government could have been wiped clean every four years.

Globalist-Leftists are clever in tricking others into adopting fake “solutions” to the problems which they, themselves have created. A perfect example of this involves the 9/11 tragedy and the un-Patriot Act which followed within days of the event. That document had been months in preparation (reference: Favorable Incompetence: Shining a Light on 9/11).

Another example involves term limits. After Franklin Delano Roosevelt was elected to the presidency for his fourth term, some complained that career politicians only make things worse. While there can be some truth to this, the number of terms served by any politician is never the problem. The corruption of the individual politician and the poor education of the voters are the main problem. A good politician should be kept in office forever, if he or she so desired. Globalist-Leftists, with their billions in personal prosperity, from their ownership of multinational corporations, can afford to fill the pipeline with corrupt politicians. Term limits solve nothing and only create an illusion of “solutions,” with more bloat at the federal level.

One of the surest ways to thwart the lies of the Left is to ensure that the citizenry become experts on critical thinking skills. This means actually teaching how to think in school, rather than what to think. And this strategy is the basis of the new Infinity Dynamics University project, currently in development.

Capitalism, Corporations and Leftism



The symbol of Leftist Capitalism, the Wall Street bull, with a Wall Street sign. Photos: #3112617_1920 by ArtTower (Bull); #264381_1920 by HarpsAndFlowers. Both (CC0) Pixabay.

One of the largest ironies of our modern world involves the Leftists’ hatred for “capitalism.” Capital is a tool. It can be used by anyone and for any purpose—good, bad or ugly.

Communist China has used capital to revitalize and to grow its economy. It has used capital to trap unwitting, 3rd World nations into econo-political servitude. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has even used their capital to create oppressive systems to spy on and to control their citizens, like in a very real form of Orwell’s 1984.

In America, Leftist Capitalists push for Big Government and more regulations for their own industry. Why would a corporation welcome more regulations? Because the big guys have the cash to create the departments required to manage such regulations. The small, Free Market Capitalist competition don’t have that luxury.

So, one big giveaway on whether or not a corporation is Leftist or Rightist, involves the degree with which they desire more Big Government. Leftist Capitalists do; Free Market Capitalists don’t; and Leftist Capitalists hate Free Market Capitalists.

Adding to this clarity, we see that the greatest abusers of their capital—the big corporations which destroy lives and pay tiny fines for their crimes—are the ones most hated by Leftists. And yet, these are the Leftist Capitalists.

Even more clarity can be gained by realizing that ALL publicly-traded corporations are Leftist Capitalists by definition. Their Articles of Incorporation and their public offering ensure this is the case. Every corporate officer in a publicly-traded company has a fiduciary duty to increase shareholder profits by any means possible. If breaking the law creates a scandal that lowers shareholder profits, then such criminality is frowned upon. But if a crime can be committed for which there are only tiny fines compared to the huge profits, then shareholders will cheer the outcome. The brazen criminality of Wall Street firms which led to the stock market crash of 1929 is one example. Another is the egregious greed of Wall Street which led to the 2008 housing bubble, making bankers far more rich, while jail time for their crimes was never mentioned. Could it be because the Big News Corporations are owned by the same people who own Wall Street?

Add to this irony the fact that tiny Iceland laughed at the American claim that the bankers were “too big to fail.” Icelanders jailed their bankers without hesitation.

Some privately-owned corporations are also Leftists, but at least the private variety of company has a choice whether or not to become evil. The collectivist (public) versions don’t have that luxury.

The job of the ego is to oppose you in your quest to become more spiritual. In fact, the word “satan,” in Hebrew, means “adversary,” “opposition” or “to accuse.” Ego—the devil, Satan or “Master of this world,” is clever, because it has unlimited access to all of your intelligence. It knows all of your secrets and your weaknesses.

With such a formidable opponent, what can we do?

First of all, let go. Don’t resist. As Christ said, “But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also” (Matthew 5:39).

Second, admire ego for a job well done. How many millions of years has it kept you here? Kudos to ego.

Third, be grateful for ego making you stronger. How are muscles and bones made stronger? By opposition. Thank you, ego!

We give up resisting evil because resistance is effort, doubt, failure and making evil stronger. Do you want evil to be stronger? Do you want more struggle and failure?

Giving up resistance allows you to be spiritual, instead of physical.

Conversion of Egoistic Desires



[image error] Devil and angel, representing the dichotomous choices of the physical universe, and also representing the structure of ego. Image: #2693196_1920 DarkSouls1 (CC0) Pixabay.

In Kabbalah of Bnei Baruch, they teach increasing ego only to convert its selfish intent into one of altruism.

As in martial arts, when an opponent lunges at you, sometimes it helps to use their forward momentum to knock them off balance. With ego, helping its selfish desires suddenly puts you in control. The next moment, pride is turned into humility, or laziness is turned into industrious responsibility.

One lesson given involves a story of a rich man and his poor friend. They enjoy each other’s company and philosophical discussions. One day, the rich man threw a banquet in honor of his poor friend. When the friend arrived, he took one look at the banquet table, filled with all his favorite foods, and felt suddenly guilty.

“Oh, this is too much,” he said, “I don’t deserve all of this.”

This deeply saddened the rich man, for he had wanted to please his friend.

When the poor man saw that he had made his host sad, he thought for a moment how to resolve his current predicament. Then, inspiration gave him his solution.

Instead of eating the banquet with selfish satisfaction, he would enjoy the food for the benefit of his host.

So, in life, we can enjoy all that God has prepared for us for His benefit, as thanks for all He has done for us. Suddenly, ego, along that vector of intention, has been dissolved.

Plans frequently hit rough patches. I suspect there is a hidden, subconscious belief about that—a belief that needs to be cleaned up. But I’m finding it easier not to get upset with missing a target or a deadline I’ve set for myself. I keep reminding myself that any frustration or upset is counterproductive and works against self-improvement. After all, it is a “resistance” toward evil. And incompetence is selfishly evil.

Think about that for a moment. Incompetence is selfish and evil. This means that even attempting to perform a miracle and failing is itself selfish and evil. But getting down on yourself for failing is also evil. The only spot to be is a zero ego—having neither aversion for the current condition (failure) nor desire for some other condition (success). Both aversion and desire knock us off balance—off the center position of “create.”

I’m enjoying my favorite empowerment question more and more:

What does it feel like to be the Rod Martin, Jr. of galactic exploration, terraformed Mars, and hundreds of InDyn University campuses?

With each of the three parts of this question, there is a very specific feeling that is unlike anything else in my 70+ years of experience. Even my $5 million in the bank, short-term goal, doesn’t even come close. That dollar figure is “boring,” while the feeling attached to a fleet of galactic exploration ships is satisfying. Even the terraformed Mars—though satisfying—is a tiny bit more boring (very tiny, but still noticeable).

The dollar figure attached to that empowerment question is in the multi-quadrillionaire range of net worth. But the money, itself, is far from satisfying. It’s what can be done with the money that is meaningful. That level of operation means pulling together a team of excited and creative individuals who solve all of the problems of technology and logistics to pull off a project that huge.

Coming Up Next

Next week, we switch gears and look at the massive election fraud in America and one of the elements of Democrat justification for their crimes—terror about “climate change” destroying the world. A simple analysis of this problem reveals some startlingly simple solutions.

End Guilt Now!

That’s right. End guilt—forever.

My current understanding is that God doesn’t want us ever to feel guilty for any crime or sin we’ve ever committed. I’ve known some Christians who would bristle at that idea.

We need to be committed to leaving mistakes and sin behind, taking full responsibility for them, but never wearing the poisonous yoke of guilt or self-punishment. Commitment to good and leaving sin behind are crippled to the degree that we dwell in guilt.

Guilt and similar attitudes are toxic, counterproductive and selfish. How are they selfish? They point toward “self” and remain self-obsessed. Forget about self, except to take full responsibility for self—but never blame.

Guilt As a Barrier to Prosperity

Some people have grown up thinking that prosperity is selfish. It isn’t. God is infinitely prosperous, and He is the most humble of all entities.

In fact, when the enemies of Christ taunted him, asking him to prove his ability to do miracles, the Master replied that they should not “tempt” the Lord. He was pointing out the fact that doing miracles to prove anything is egoistic, and thus selfish. Asking God to help prove His power is asking Him to become egoistic or physical—tempting Him with seduction of pride.

Guilt about prosperity is selfish. It is a level of self-obsession that gets in the way of using the talents that God has given to us. None of this universe is important, but we must be willing to use the tools that remain available to us in order to help one another.

Moments before sitting down to write this article, I realized that accomplishment comes from two things: commitment and spirit. Hard work is merely a product of commitment. Sometimes, however, hard work implies unnecessary friction. This is when spirit is working against our intent, because the focus is on failure or difficulty, instead of accomplishment and competence.

Spirit is superior and with spirit alone we could create anything—any object, or the repurposing of existing objects, or even the healing of any condition (body, mind, spirit, social and otherwise).

With spirit alone, we could create massive prosperity. But none of us are advanced enough, spiritually to pull that off—at least not yet. We have to be willing to put in the work. The willingness is far more important than the actual work. The patience for results is also more important than the actual work.

The same goes for health. We could heal any body condition with spirit (faith) alone. Suddenly, clogged arteries are cleared; but where did the cholesterol go? Suddenly, a damaged retina is reformed, allowing sight where there was none; what happened in each one of those damaged cells?

But until we get to that level of spirit, we should be enthusiastic about working our butts off to achieve our goals. Laziness should never be our goal.

And we should eat all the right foods and do all the right exercises so that we give our physical body the physical path to health before we energize the body with spiritual healing. On this point, I highly recommend the Keto diet which has the following potential benefits, especially when combined with intermittent fasting (16–20 hours per day of not eating). I’ve eased into this so that, so far, the change is relatively painless.

The body begins burning fat, instead of depending on sugars and other carbohydrates (breads and starches).The body increases its HGH (human growth hormone) to help build resiliency and quick healing.The body can start to repair organs that have become damaged.The body can even create new stem cells which can be programmed, as needed, to replace old, worn out cells and body parts.

Not all of the above is explicitly claimed for the Keto diet, but there are indications that such processes are possible. When we commit to taking responsibility for an area of our life—finances, health, family, etc., we open the door to spirit understanding our request in a way that is compatible with what we actually think. After all, commitment is also a feeling, and the subconscious only “thinks” in terms of feelings.

Meditative Action

I’ve begun a new phase in building my own Prosperity Engine. This involves meditating through every waking moment of the day. I still do the morning routine of meditation, empowering affirmation questions and inspirational video. But beyond that, I work on being critically aware of being aware throughout the day with every action take—including resting.

In the past, I’ve been a news junky, watching controversial videos about some aspect of the world that, at times, can prove quite unsettling. This type of activity is not conducive to spiritual growth, if we react to it negatively. Responding to the vicious attacks of others in online comments can prove even more dispiriting. In the past, the urge to respond in kind was strong, but always I would attempt to find some other way to provoke enlightenment in even the most evil of commenters. I had always wanted to explore this area of human interaction, finding better and better ways to respond.

But such activities have tended to wear me down. Avoiding them can help, in the short term. But returning with renewed strength helps to exercise my own spiritual stamina. It helps to exercise my own balance and neutrality—the point of zero ego.

Christ recommended not casting our pearls before swine. That’s excellent advice. But, by the same token, we need to be able to weather the storms of snarling ego without being sucked into them and becoming overwhelmed.

Remember: Christ walked on the Sea of Galilee when the waves threatened to sink the boat in which his disciples rode. We need to have his mental and spiritual poise, while all around us the waves of adversity threaten to destroy us. Calm in the eye of a storm.

New Approach to Meditation

Instead of closing my office door and warning others not to disturb me while I meditate, I now allow any and all interruptions. The intent is to develop the skill of maintaining meditative focus at all times.

Thank the interruption silently or out loud. But feel gratitude for it while keeping the focus on paracognitive awareness—the awareness of being aware.

New Approach to Planning

Instead of doing detailed plans and day-to-day milestones for the next week or two months, do thumbnail plans with weekly or monthly milestones, leaving the details to a list which you consult on a daily basis.

I’ve loved the planning stage, but have never been that good at it. For one thing, I’ve never developed the self-discipline to stick to plans. That’s changing for the better.

And things happen which upset our carefully-laid plans. New discoveries are made. A brainstorming session inspires you to jot down a few ideas and 3 hours later you realize you need to start working on the day’s plans. Such divine distractions make detailed, careful plans a wasted effort.

In the past I’ve spent entirely too much time doing detailed plans which became worthless in very short order. I would do a fairly good job of following my plans, but never perfect.

Attachment to plans sometimes resulted in interpersonal upset. Not good. Sometimes I would end up in the doghouse for days. But now, I’ve found an approach which lets me do light planning—enough to ensure focus, but not so detailed that a few bumps or inspirational tangents don’t waste the planning effort.

It works like this:

For the day, I write down a relatively detailed list of accomplishments. For the week, month, year and decade, I write down an increasingly generalized list of actions, tasks, projects, programs, plans and goals. These become my “hierarchical calendar.” For each of the upcoming goals, I write a more detailed list of actions, tasks and projects, but don’t tie any of the items to a calendar. This becomes my “sequential list” for that goal.

I merely set a loose goal on the hierarchical calendar, and as I plan each day and upcoming week, I pop off the next few items on the sequential list for that goal.

The objective, here, is to do just enough planning to help move things forward, and so that nothing slips through the cracks.

Coming Up Next

The next article will be about “The Glorious Ego.” This is not going to be a facetious examination of this very negative, false identity. Instead, this article will be an exercise in deep gratitude for the very thing that gives us the most difficulty in life.

Think about this for a moment. The stress of gravity makes our bones and muscles stronger. Astronauts in zero gravity suffer weakened muscles and bones made far more fragile from the lack of stress. The difficulty we face in college with contrary ideas sharpens our critical thinking skills. Childhood illnesses strengthen our immune system. And the challenges in building a business can sometimes strengthen our character to the point where we can face any of life’s problems. Ego is merely one of the many sources of opposition that prepare us for what is to come.

After this coming week, the Prosperity Engine series will become more intermittent, allowing for the examination of other projects and ideas. My own Prosperity Engine is coming together nicely. The pieces are falling into place and the excitement is building to a fever pitch, despite, on occasion, huge dips in emotion. Each fall is followed by an equally energetic rise and a learning experience which continues to prepare me for more. A new favorite source of wisdom to add to your own list: Ed Mylett. He’s a peak performance expert, public speaker and professional trainer. I highly recommend his videos for his enthusiasm, energy and useful tools for handling life’s challenges.
