MACHIVENTA: Good morning, this is Machiventa Melchizedek
and it is a pleasure to be here with you once again.
Message from Christ Michael
I
will report on the conversation that Christ Michael had with This One this
morning. Christ Michael gave the
assurance that their plans for the Correcting Time have now reached the
implementation stage, wherein individuals and groups of individuals will be
actively brought together to find their commonalities, and that this will last
a period of time from three to five years.
There is an attempt by us, the Triumvirate, and our forces of light, to
quell any major global social, political, or economic disruptions that would
hinder our working to bring this implementation together.
The
second part of this message is that we have been aided by the recent election
in the United States where those who did not vote for Mr. Trump will be brought
together in like fashion as we are doing globally. This is much like what happens when a farmer,
who has a large machine, harvests the wheat, and then wheat seeds are separated
from the weed seeds, so that you end up with whole and clean seed that can be
used next year. What has happened in
this election, from our perspectives, is the separation of those who wish to
recede into the past and into social, political, and economic isolationism
whereas the future of the world is “oneness with all.” We know that this election has been most
disruptive and you are quite right that it has taken the animosities to the
point of polarization and heightened them to great levels.
This
is all I have to report on this at this time.
As we have no further opening comments, you are most welcome to bring
questions to the forum now.
Where are the truths from the President Elect?
ML: I do have a question. It seems to me that it may well be that the
comments that the President Elect has made over the period of the campaign are
being interpreted in one of two ways: A
lot of the statements are being taken literally and my sense is that where
people have done that, become the most upset, and yet, those who are steadfast
followers may, generally speaking, not be taking them literally, but simply
believing that he will do more with respect to those issues than anybody else
on the ticket. Can you give us a sense
of where the truth lies?
MACHIVENTA: Yes, I would be glad to, as far as we can aid
you with this. First is that he is quite
a “grandstanding individual,” who plays to the audience. He is bifurcated; he is not schizophrenic but
he is bifurcated in that on one hand, he will play any tactic and say anything
mean or otherwise to gain an upper hand and to bring together those people who
would support him. On the other hand, he
is an individual who has wise business acumen, and so he does what is necessary
to promote his gain. He has offended a
huge population of the United States and the world and has gained the
Presidency because of that. He, on the
other hand, presents some capabilities which would honor his conservative
isolationist supporters.
What
will be discovered in future months and years is that he has a very pragmatic
approach, also to maintaining his position.
He will soften many of his stances and begin to accept more of what has
occurred in the past as far as foreign and domestic policies. He is what you might call, “his own fan
club.” He likes to arouse people by any
means possible, but when he is on the court, as in playing tennis, he is very
aggressive and will do what he can to win each set. What you will find in coming months and years
of his Presidency is that the “system is broken,” and in fact there is no
system to your government. It was
created as a multilayer of linear processes to accomplish the goals of
democracy, socially, politically and economically — and those have run their
course. He will be presented with
problems he will not have answers to and therefore he will seek outside
influence of other groups that want to maintain the status quo. You can be assured that the influences of
corporations will continue unabated and will grasp at any opportune chance to
expand their hold on congressional and legislative processes.
A need for gaining unbiased information about candidates
Craig: I just have a couple of questions this
morning. One was that I recently heard
about this “Voter” computer application, and it seemed to me that this went
along the lines of solving one of the little pieces of political puzzle and
that is how to gain information about the candidates—true information and
unbiased. It’s an app for an iPhone that
is probably not accessible to everyone the way that a web site would be, and
they also have to supply the information themselves. I just wondered if it did seem like a
progressive idea. I wondered if you
might have any comments on that.
MACHIVENTA: Yes.
You are beginning to see the applications, as these computer
applications and other software processes, fill in the chinks that are not
working in your democratic process. What
is missing is a database of honest and authentic information for the public
that is without bias and without self-interest.
You are also seeing that there needs to be improved Internet and
computer services for greater citizen input to their governmental processes on
a daily basis, or even on an hour-to-hour basis if a person chooses. There is obviously a great need by the public
that needs to be filled for their ability to communicate effectively with their
public executives, whether those are elected or appointed. There has not yet been provided a means for
these bits and pieces to come together into an organized and integrated whole
that supports the interests of a democratic society and nation, and also serves
the interests of individual citizens.
These
are all pointing to the future, which will come about. What will necessarily develop is a process
that is without bias, without self-interest for its own preservation, but
serves the larger goals of society and particularly for future generations in a
democratic society. There must become an
evolution of the democratic process to fulfill this. There are enough constitutional allowances,
privileges and rights for these processes to come into being without violating
any constitutional political processes, and there are enough reasons to do so
without violence and without social, political, or economic retardation. You will see many more of these innovations
come forward to assist your democracy.
Also, there must come forward someone who can make sense of all this and
apply this to the larger realm of democratic governance and citizen
participation.
Craig: I just have trouble seeing what the
communication tools might look like, but I hope those will develop over time.
MACHIVENTA: If I may comment, they already exist. It is simply a matter of invention, of
bringing bits and pieces and parts of these developments together in a holistic
and integrated system that is circular and provides the learning component that
is missing from democratic processes.
A clarification on something in The Urantia Book
Craig: My other question is totally unrelated to the
first. I was wondering if we might get a
small clarification of something in The
Urantia Book, based on change in the
meaning of a term, since the book was written.
The book says that, the Carboniferous was the “Age of Frogs,” back in
the evolution of life, and at the time that the book was written, there was no
term for class of animals between fish and reptiles. The term “amphibian” was used to denote
anything that lived in water and on land, including turtles and seals, and that
changed in the 1960s—I sort of remember when it did—and it came to be the term
denominating the class of animals that lays eggs in the water between fish and
reptiles. I was wondering if The Urantia Book today, and especially
in light of the fact that no fossils recognized as being frogs exist before the
Permian Period—none found so far—that maybe The
Urantia Book if it was written today would have termed the Carboniferous “The
Age of Amphibians?”
MACHIVENTA: Yes, you are correct. There are many anomalies within The Urantia Book, which indicate that it
was based on information or data that was not complete at the time. It was the best effort of the celestial realm
using the database of human understanding that would convey the intents of the
book in its revelation. It also points
to the fact that readers who are discerning have found that the book is not a
complete record, and that there are many parts missing, and many that could be
corrected and would be in the future. We
have said this before that it is not a perfect instrument of learning, but that
what it portrays to be at the time it was written and published.
What will come out as a result of this election
ML: I do have another question. You spoke about those who are in effect, wanting to retreat and not move forward. My question is: Is it a fair and accurate understanding that
those who have predominantly supported the President Elect, are serving us—the
larger population—in a positive way, although difficult to see sometimes, by
revealing the level of confusion, fear and anger of a population basically that
feels and sees themselves stuck, economically and socially? Is that a fair and accurate reading of what
has happened?
Globalization is the trend of the future
MACHIVENTA: Yes, that is a fair description of what is
happening. It is not fully accurate in
that it is incomplete, but it is a fair description. What will come out of this through our
influence in these next years is a closer examination of the reasons for
holding back, or not going forward. You
know from The Urantia Book, as well
as anyone, that globalization is the trend of the future, that it is a trend of
bringing oneness to a disparate and separated world, and that the difficulties
of bringing about this oneness is immense to those who have benefitted most
from their own isolation in the past. We
do not call them “dinosaurs of thought or culture;” we see them as a positive influence for the
future to examine what works.
It
is important that that question be fully examined and analyzed to assist the
future to go forward constructively.
When those questions are asked, “What works?” it is not pointed to
fixing your problems, but it is pointed to separating the problem from the
larger situation that most of society works quite well. There are problems involved in a society that
is evolving and moving forward with social change, technological change, and
tremendous growth in education of the population, in a population that is
separated by education and by socio-economic levels. It is important that those who are willing to
move forward to have a more integrated society not separate from those who want
to hold back, but to respect them for the willingness to adhere to tradition
and the culture that they have known for a long time.
It
is not everyone who is able to move into a new cultural situation comfortably;
it is done gradually and peacefully over time, and violence and revolutions and
revolts only tend to make the sides more separated. You have only to look to the Middle East with
the Sunnis and the Shiites, whose groups continue to embattle the tragedies of
history and bring those tragedies into the future with continued animosities
towards others. It is our attempt in
these interim peaceful times that I mentioned earlier to bring about an
understanding of the commonalities that bring harmony, social stability and
social evolution that benefits everyone.
The tremendous economic disparities of your world present you and us
with the opportunity to redefine wealth and to assist in the processes at the
social, national, and global level where the distribution of wealth benefits
everyone, and still allows for tremendous innovation and growth and
accumulation of wealth in more positive ways.
I apologize for going astray from your question, but these seem to be
all relevant parts of the answer.
ML: Thank you.
The Electoral College
Roxie: Machiventa, there is much talk over whether
we should end the Electoral College way of voting and go to a popular vote, or
not. Your recommendations, please?
MACHIVENTA: I have no recommendations at this time, but I
will reveal some thoughts concerning the antiquarian aspects of the democracy
that was formed in the 1700s. Many of
the antiquarian elements, such as the Senate and House of Representatives,
those two separate entities, as well as the Electoral College and so forth, are
protectionist tactics to ensure that the young democracy that began in the late
1700s and early 1800s was able to become established and not overturned by a
large uneducated and understanding rabble population, and they were at the time
a rabble population! These are people
who wanted to survive and to have a better life, but were not interested in, or
were uneducated to participate in the election and campaign process to become
the political leaders of this young nation.
Your
nation is far past those times. Now,
those antiquarian aspects of your democracy are holding back the enjoyment of
understanding of a more functional democratic process that takes social
evolution into account. Those
antiquarian means now are being used by those with money and power to enjoy an
opportunity that would be absent if those antiquarian aspects were
removed. We do suggest that there be an
interest in examining those antiquarian aspects and having those removed. Yet, on the other hand, the democratic
process as it now exists does not have the “umpf,” the power, the leverage of
the people to make that happen.
Therefore, this amalgamizing holistic integrated process as a new
evolutionary process of democracy is one that would make that possible. I am not going to reveal further about that,
but leave these developments to come about in time as you will see.
The Patriot Act
Roxie: Thank you.
It is said that fear can make citizens give up their rights, and that
the Patriot Act gives the government total power over civilians. Do you see this happening as a result of our
election?
MACHIVENTA: It is not necessarily an association that
needs to be exercised. The Patriot Act
as you and others know is a voluminous document which gave advantage to the
government in case of terrorist attacks.
However, there is within it the “latent seed of tyranny,” of the
exercise of government to make a police state and martial law possible in times
of emergency. It does give too much
authority and power to the decision-making of a few that which could be used
for their own advantage and to the immense disadvantage of a prospering
democratic nation. This is something
that has been formalized and existed before in the discretion of executive
offices to put down revolts and so on, as you saw during the 1920s and 1930s
and in the 1950s and 1960s during the riots in the cities. Isolated use of martial law tactics and even
military control of society is necessary in isolated situations, and in
isolated geographic areas. It becomes
most egregious and very destructive to the good working order of a nation when
it is applied nationwide; then you will see what occurred in Germany, those who
want to adhere to that process and those who must escape.
The failure of government to protect us from corporate greed
Roxie: Our government has failed to protect us from
corporate greed. Is there a merger of
political and government interest that could be considered a kind of fascism or
tyranny?
MACHIVENTA: No. It
would require an organization to do that.
Some people identify the Illuminati as making that possible. You are in error in the formation of your
question, however, and that the development of the corporate influence was due
to the profit motive of corporations. They
have a very clear and distinct mandate, and that is to make a profit, to earn
money and to send that to their stockholders and to grow the company. However, there is no known intention for
government; it is a very confused situation for those who are elected and those
who are appointed. There is no clear
mandate or intention for the existence of government in that if you looked at
government, it is there to maintain the good working order of a democratic
society. However, what is missing is the
visionary leadership that is necessary to bring that society into an organized,
purposeful future, for future generations.
Were there such a mandate for government, then you would see the means
of entering the future without the use of corporations to control that.
Second and third stages of democracy
You
live in what This One and we have entitled as a “second stage democracy.” The first stage of development of democracy
occurred in the last thousand years, or shorter than that, until the 1700s when
this democratic nation came into existence.
The second stage of democratic development occurred in the last 240
years, and it was really a trial effort by citizens to form a democracy,
socially, politically and economically that would continue into existence. However, there was no vision past this simple
existence. What now must occur is the
evolutionary development of the third stage of democracy so that it has
intention, it has purpose, it has vision, and it has the motivation and the
means to learn from its mistakes and transcend its past and move itself into
the future for the welfare of all future generations.
There
is unfortunately, materialism and the profit motive and focalized interest on
making money, no matter how much money in this generation, which keeps the
thought on the present, and selfishness and the self-entitlement and even
condescension thoughts about the welfare of others. As you see from my comments this is a major
concern that we have and the development and evolution of democracies is
primary to the foundation of a global civilization and political process that
leads to social stability, peace, and eventually to the Days of Light and Life.
Is it time to consider a global federation?
ML: I’m wondering if the situation globally,
which seems to be largely chaos and self-serving country by country, and all of
the other characteristics usually displayed day after day, if it isn’t possible
to begin consideration of a federation,
as opposed to other attempts to develop democracy, as we have known it? Is it time to begin considering another form
of global management, usually referred to as a federation, as opposed to a
democracy?
MACHIVENTA: Yes, it is time to think of that. There is mention in some of the recent
revelations of the need for a global organization similar to that of the United
States. You have 50 independent states
within the federation of the United States nation, and so the states operate
very independently, but there are commonalities which must occur among all the
states, and that is a means of sharing revenue through taxation with the
Federal Government and State Government, a means of communication, a uniform
language—though secondary languages should be supported—and an economy that
works, and laws that are universal, and so forth. The main problem that is occurring within
nations is the adamant resistance to Desovereignization, as Richard Buckminster
Fuller spoke about in his book, “Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth.” The problem with sovereignty is that the
rules of sovereignty seem to be becoming stronger in some cases and more porous
in others.
The problem of overpopulation
The
second problem is overpopulation; it is an egregious problem that continues to
worsen. When you see the exit of
hundreds of thousands of people in nations in distress to nations that are
successful and popular that has occurred from Africa to Europe and from the
Middle East to Europe, you are seeing the problems of overpopulation. On the other hand, the issue of
sovereignization of nations is causing difficulty within the European Union to
resolve the problems of the migrants. I
use these two examples together because they point to the need for a
federation, as you speak of. The economic union of Europe did not go far
enough; it is still in a novice beginning state where no one has seen the
necessity of the evolution, or has planned those stages of evolution for the
Union. It is an economic Union. However, there is a necessity of union beyond
economies that must be used to join people together; some understanding of its
commonalities and make internal agreements to lessen the borders between those
nations.
Brexit will affect millions of lives
The
situation of the phenomena called “Brexit,” is a step in the opposite direction
of the Days of Light and Life. It is an
experiment, and as such it will affect the lives of millions of people, perhaps
to their detriment as we see it. There
may be short-term advantages, but it is very similar to what occurred in the
election of the United States where the conservative element wanted to take a
step backwards, back in time to how it was decades ago. The problem with the social, political, and
economic thinking of the world is that it is not anticipating the future. In order to live in the future you want to
live in, you must anticipate and make plans for it and come to an understanding
of the forces of evolution that bring that about, whether it is peaceful or
violent. It is in the interests of all
concerned to have peaceful evolution, rather than violence, which is very detrimental
to evenness of productive progress and the benefit of an improving quality of
life for everyone. Thank you for your
question.
The ramifications of corporations controlling our lives
Roxie: I watched a documentary called, “An American
Empire: An Act.” It was about the ramifications of
corporations controlling our economic, ecological and political systems. They have no accountability, but they control
our lives. Henry Kissinger said, “He who
controls money, controls the world.” You
answered a question very similar to this one in our last session, but my
question this time is: Since this
tendency of the corporations and the rich to control all resources and income
is increasing at an alarming speed, what will happen to give our design teams
the power to overcome this present increasing situation?
MACHIVENTA: The impetus to do so; the need to do so—as
simple as that. When people begin to
feel pinched in life, then they will seek answers. As you have known from the last 8 years of
our work involving social sustainability, there has been very little interest
from others, even within our own community, and those outside our community in
this process. It simply has not been a
need or a driving necessity for individuals to come together to resolve those
problems. Part of the answer was
provided in my previous statement that government has no vision; it has no
intention for its existence other than to govern, whereas with profits and
business the motivation is to make a profit, earn money, accumulate money, and
control the economic environment.
The
core of the problem is that there is no morality guiding organizations or
governments. The morality of the last
6,000 years is one that has been dictated by the personal interests of kings,
monarchs, and so on, to control individual behavior that is destructive to the
functioning of society. It was never
meant as a morality for groups of individuals, governments, or
corporations. Your question barely
scratches the surface of the moral difficulties of your world, simply because
the morality that has existed in your world is primitive and archaic and not
thoughtfully developed as a learning process for individuals, for
organizations, or for your civilization.
Corporations are controlling our food and chemical industries
Roxie: Thank you.
The large corporations have already taken control of the food and
chemical industries, and now 80% of the family farmers are gone, and it is said
that half a million of them have committed suicide. If we succeed in taking back the land from
the big corporations, who will be left to grow our food?
MACHIVENTA: That is never a concern. Any land that exists is always used for the
production of food. The question is
incomplete; it does not look at the larger picture of corporate ownership and
corporate dominance of society. What is
needed is for individual citizens to come together in groups to become powerful
within communities and to seek a new means, to invent new means that empower
them. Many millions and billions of
people have forfeit their power by entering into the materialistic, monetary
fantasy of greater and greater prosperity to have an improving quality of life,
where the whole point of having an improving quality of life is missed by
materialism and financial accumulation.
When people literally buy into the economic materialism that is present
in modern and developed societies and nations, they have given away their
freedom.
Desertification of farm lands
Roxie: It is said that because of the poor farming
practices of the big corporations, much of the land in the American Midwest is
becoming a dust bowl and is no longer sustainable. Do you see this happening, and if so, how
soon?
MACHIVENTA: It is a combination of factors of your world
that are larger than just the Midwest of the United States. It is the process of desertification with
agricultural lands that do not have enough moisture. You are seeing the beginnings of something
larger than corporate destruction of the lands; you are seeing that it is the
lifestyles of people who have sought to have more. This process is beyond that of corporations;
it is a process of global warming and all the tragedies and travesties of
manufacturing and production that a materialistic civilization has caused in
your world. It began with the exploitation
of the natural resources of your world and using those for production whether
as energy sources, or as finished products.
Your world, Urantia, and the spirit of Urantia are in the process of
correcting this, though it will result in the demise of literally billions of
people.
Think beyond your brief life
What
we are trying to instill in these answers in all of you, and hopefully this
will become a part of the thinking of a few of you, is the aspect of Planetary
Management to think outside the realm of your own individual short and brief
life, and that you are incapable and incompetent to affect the whole. This is simply untrue. You as individuals can have a powerful effect
on your own life by making decisions that contribute to your happiness. We have found that indebtedness of almost any
degree does not lead to happiness in individuals who have chosen that route in
life. It is a lifestyle; it is a
culture, and so the work that we are doing as Planetary Managers is to bend
your cultures to think in larger parameters.
It is not just corporations, but the whole world that is involved in its
own destruction at this time.
Roxie: Now corporations want
to control all sources of water, even polluting rivers so that they can
capitalize on selling bottled water. It
is illegal in most states to save rain and gray water. There is an estimate that the Great Lakes
could be dry in as little as 8 years.
Are these fears justified?
MACHIVENTA: We defer answering this line of questions.
Roxie: Monsanto has bought up almost all seed
companies and turned them into GMO seeds.
It is now illegal for farmers to save seed to use the following season,
so they have to buy seeds from Monsanto each year. Monsanto now controls seed patents in 70
Countries. They are taking over faster
than the farmers can counter their actions.
Do you have suggestions on stopping this stampede before all is lost?
MACHIVENTA: We defer answering the question.
Roxie: I have one more question on the Federal
Reserve, but perhaps that should be left until we get into the economic system.
How does providence work?
So,
I’ll ask one more question I received in an email. He says, “I think I understand what
providence is. What I’d like to know is
how does providence work?”
MACHIVENTA: We have spoken of providence in times past
over the years. It is a frequent topic
that comes up occasionally from time to time.
We have explained that providence is the outworking of Divine Order and
Divine Timing and Divine Development, as many of the spiritual metaphysical
trains of thought teach. How it works
answers a deeper question and this is important for you as individuals, and for
your thoughts about your world and your own personal spiritual ascension, and
it is this: Providence works by the
coordination of Thought Adjusters around the world. It is guided by the Planetary Thought
Adjuster that is resident here, and it works as this: Thought Adjusters are of one mind, and one
mind knows how to arrange developments so that they work for the good of
individuals and for those who have good intentions in their life.
You
have seen coincidence work for others.
Happenstance and serendipity work for others who are non-believers as
well. They have simply learned how to go
with the flow of the universe. Those of
you who are believers in the good work of God, and who have released the
direction of your life to God’s handiwork are guided by opportunities that draw
you into where you need to be, and where you can contribute and make a
contribution to your life and to your children, and to that of others. We, meaning the Thought Adjusters, are of one
mind, and that when you submit your will to God, where you release the
direction of your life and its guidance and its development to doing God’s Will,
and you “will” to do God’s Will, that gives permission to your Thought Adjuster
with other Thought Adjusters to arrange your life in ways that bring you into a
fuller life experience and to the development and fullness of your soul, so
that when you graduate from your mortal life, you begin the morontial
experience with a much heartier advanced capability to progress in that new
realm.
Doing God’s Will
The
doing of God’s Will is much more than just releasing yourself to God’s guidance
as you as an individual; you therefore become an instrument in the good working
order to bring this world into the Days of Light and Life, that you become a
contributing member to your life, and to those of others. Have you not seen many times where you come
into the world, and you go out into the shopping centers, malls and in traffic
and you see others helping others, and you see the good working order that is
going on? You are oftentimes the
recipient, and oftentimes you are the benefactor to others, and so when you release
yourself to God’s Will, you become of service, and you become also a learning
instrument to learn the way that works in peace and harmony.
This
is truly the advanced state of the Days of Light and Life, but on an individual
level. You have seen people who have
released their life to God and to doing God’s work, and do not strive in their
life, but nonetheless live lives of happiness and fulfillment and
contentment. This is the way that it is
to be when life is settled on a planet that has come to that age, and it is so
for millions of individuals. In your
world now, this is so difficult because there are so many people, and it is
difficult to live in peace, and it is difficult to make an intention to live in
peace. The opportunities that people see
are oftentimes very narrow. However,
when they release themselves to God, they also give themselves a far broader
horizon of opportunities to experience when those opportunities do enter their
lives. I hope this answers your
question.
Roxie: Thank you very much, Machiventa. That is all the questions I have. Craig or Michael, have you come up with any
additional ones?
Intentions to do things that evolve democracy and society
Craig: I was thinking:
There’s a group of bankers that meet in Basel, Switzerland every year, and
there’s the Bilderberg group of very powerful people that meet every year and
they talk about what they want to do to the world or with the world.
These people with these intentions, they cause a lot of things to come about. I
believe that they are effective because of the drift of civilization, or
whatever, the lack of other intentions within society. And I am thinking that
we are being asked to have individuals come together with intentions to do
things that evolve democracy, that evolve society. So, these people that
cause all these huge effects in the world, there are a very small number of
them, so are we saying that small numbers of people coming together for design
teams for evolution will probably have great effects, because the people with
intentions cause a lot to happen, whereas the rest of society just goes along
with whatever is happening? That’s just a thought.
MACHIVENTA: That is a good thought as well. You have come to a larger perspective of what
is occurring, that those with intention have given themselves purpose and goals
to achieve, whereas those who are just dithering about in life making a living,
trying to make ends meet without having an intention for their life, or an
intention with other people, give themselves over as ready victims to those
with intention. It is important that
small groups of individuals come together to find commonality and to define an
intention for coming together in what they want to work on. When they have that, then you will see great
progress.
You
have opened the door to much insight into the problems of societies, whether
they are democratic or otherwise, that there are many people who do not
understand the intention for their life, or for their community, or nation, or
for the world. It is important that you
as individuals begin working on an intention for your democracy: social,
political and economic construct of your democracy. What would that intention be? If you come together with individuals in your
community, you must think in very broad terms that would be historic way into
the future. What would be the intention
that you would want to have for a democratic society? When you begin doing that, you will begin to
form a vision, and then you will begin to form an operating philosophy that can
be used by individuals and by huge organizations, one that brings a unity of
thinking and living and purpose to your activities. I thank you for your question; that is very
intuitive in many ways.
Machiventa’s closing statement
This
is Machiventa as a representative of the Triumvirate here on Urantia, we thank
you for your time today, and we thank you for the thoughtfulness of your
questions. It seems quite evident to us
that the disruption of the normalcy of your nation and your political and
economic situation has given you time and reason to think about deeper issues
and questions. You have begun to unlock
the key to the future by asking questions, and by doing so, you will begin to
find purpose in your life, and your existence as groups of individuals. We whole heartedly support that work: You must have purpose as a society in order
to come into the competitive field with large organizations that are purposeful
and have intention in what they are doing.
Until then, you will simply be more of the modern day rabble without
direction. Thank you.
