Evolution of Government

Apes are like warlords, brutal warriors who stay in power by murdering those who stand in their way. They’ve continued to do this today but are at a standstill. The same situation happened with people that used to be warlords. Warlords needed to stay in power because they have a problem with themselves. They are lacking something, probably love. People are already powerful by nature, but a few want and need power over others because there is something wrong with them. Power gives them balance in their lives so they can be happy.

There are two types of power. One deals with someone who has experience and knowledge who wants to help people become more humane. The other power involves those warlords who have a problem with themselves. This of course is still happening today. If you look at the stories from the past, you see that a few have been ruthless and inhumane to get and keep power knowing full well they could get killed. That’s how important it is to them.

But a few noble people wanted a better system of government. They went through hardships, torture and death to make a change. These people and their families were wrongly treated so they became thinkers looking for a better way of life. Some escaped their governments to create a newer and better one. From Moses all the way to the masons who came to America, people have been fighting a change.

It all started with a religious movement to make people more moral. They set up laws so they can have a better way of life.

When man started writing on tablets, it sped up the evolution of government. The written word gets preserved for future generations. People who can read and understand are able to add to what has been written.

When the ancient Greek government was in charge, religion was separated. People (who were wealthy) had a chance to think for themselves. This is where democracy started. The idea is that the rights of an individual should be protected. America adopted this idea because it’s an important element to having a well structured society.  

But there is a problem today in America involving the rule of the majority. When the majority rules, the single individual loses his or her rights. There is no democracy when an individual cannot have a voice. The government should be by the people for the people. It’s time to rethink the way we run our government.

We need to reassess the way we make changes in our government because the people who are protesting today are seen as a joke. The Wall St. protests are not working because they’re trying to plead with the government which is already run by the one percent. How is the government supposed to respond to the protests when they themselves are being controlled by the people the protesters are against?

Individual thinkers throughout history have made the world a better place, not the rich or some majority. When we start having individuals thinking for themselves and considering their own interests instead of believing lies from politicians from both sides, then we are able to change the government for the better. Hopefully this will happen sooner than later. If we don’t have people thinking for themselves, we are going to do what we’ve been doing in the past; bloody revolutions which is not necessary today.

Your government does not want you to think for yourself. They want you to be proud that you are a part of your country. America wants you to be proud to be an American so you don’t have to question the government. They feed this pride propaganda to you when you’re a little kid so it can stay ingrained in your head. Religion does the same thing. Both do it so they can stay in power.

Pride should be something that comes after you accomplish something, not just because you were born somewhere. You should be proud to be a great human being because of your accomplishments for trying to do the right thing.

People around the world are knocking down their government to create a better one where democracy exists. But religious fanatics take over because they are the majority and ruin it for everybody. The individual loses their right.

The rich people and the religious gangs have lobbyists that make changes in the government for their favor. What they’re doing goes against the constitution because it goes against the right of the individual. If the rich and the gangs have lobbyists, then it is the obligation for the government to provide lobbyists that can fight for the individual. The right of the individual is the most important right.

Gangs

When I came back home from overcoming paralyzation, my very religious mother wanted me to go to the temple and assimilate. I wouldn’t do it. My mother was enraged saying, “When you belong to the Jewish society, you gain power and they will help you become successful!” I said something like this: “If I do that then I will have the wrong perception of the truth. I’d rather struggle on my own and find the right path. The real perception of the truth will give me incredible strength and willingness to go through difficulties. That is more important than the power you get from any organized gang!”

All gangs give you support but they also give you the wrong perception of the truth. These gangs include religious organizations, atheists, the mafia, street gangs and royalty who all have beliefs and rules which have the wrong perception. They all want to keep their throne, subjects, slaves, or followers as long as they can.

Some of these groups continuously kill each other so they can stay in power. They end up fighting because they think they are better than the other gangs since they have their own system of rules which are not moral. These are just beliefs that are not needed today. They have to accept the truth that BELIEVING IS NOT KNOWING. The world is too small now and the wars are too destructive for us to be blind to this fact.

Let’s take a look at religion and how this organized gang ruins truth. If you’ve spent your whole life with the same church, going every Sunday with your friends and family who are also in the same organization, then you are in a bubble. Your perception of reality is distorted because you’ve learned one way of looking at the world with their beliefs and rules. How can you have the right perception of reality until you step away from that bubble and see what’s out there? Just because your parents are religious (or even atheist) does not mean you have to be as well.

Part of the reason why I wrote my book is because I understand these bubbles. I’ve been inside Jewish bubbles, Christian bubbles, Muslim bubbles, Hindu bubbles, Buddhist bubbles and realized that none of them had the true perception of the reality of life. These bubbles are wrong because they think they’re bubble is better than anyone else’s. You can’t make a decision of your own when you participate in these bubbles. How can you find the truth if you don’t listen to anybody else outside?

Religious people and atheists do not want to accept what I have written in my book once they’ve read it because the evidence I provide makes them angry. They realize they spent their whole life doing things and believing in things which are contrary to the reality of their life. They have been brainwashed at such a young age and once they see the truth, they discard it because the pain is too much. They can’t accept that they spent their whole lives being ignorant. They have to ignore it so they are able to feel good about themselves. All people should understand they must think for themselves and not let others influence them.

A famous pastor named Brigham Young started a school and named it after himself. Look at that name! It’s a perfect example of what religion does, Bring ‘em Young. They bring young kids so they can brainwash them into believers.

But, don’t underestimate the power of religion throughout the years. Religion has been teaching morality to ignorant people who needed to learn not to rape and kill each other. Ever since man was able to think he has been asking nothing but questions. Leaders had to come up with answers to their questions with no concrete evidence. They created a house of cards that we now call religion.

Now that we have concrete evidence, the house of cards is falling apart. The religious leaders realize this and are saying the end of the world is coming soon. Really, it’s the end of religion; their world is coming to an end.  A good detective will understand what they mean because they are guilty. Guilty people will always give tells that they are guilty. Look at OJ Simpson who wrote the book, If I did It. This is an example of a guilty man trying to come clean but not really admitting his fault. It’s the same thing with religion proclaiming the end of the world. Now they realize with all the true information spreading that religion is just a belief. They are prolonging their existence; they stay in power without really admitting guilt to the people.

Others received power and leadership by being a great warrior or earning an inheritance. We have to get rid of these civilizations that are creating war so they can be leaders. Fortunately, there are less and less but there are people in Africa and the Middle East where civilizations are solely based on war. These civilizations will be done with soon hopefully.  

The universe is a chaos within an order, the Earth is a chaos within an order, nature is a chaos in an order so the energy of the universe (God) and everything really works. Throughout history, there have been and are today humans who went through hardships, tortured and even death to tell the real truth. Keep an open mind but think for yourself.

Because of technology and the internet, people are becoming more aware about the atrocities of religion. But people correlate religion with God. God has nothing to do with religion. Don’t be afraid of the word God. Understand that the name has been tarnished by people, not Him or Her or It. Don’t stand there like a dummy and say I can’t find God. Think for yourself and figure it out.

I’ve been a citizen of Tunisia, France, Denmark, Israel and United States. I’ve visited Australia, Mexico, and Canada.  Everywhere I went I worked learned the language and I found people who have the right perception of the truth and are humane, some places more than others. They are the only ones you can count on to save this planet.

The Peace Corps should go out there and teach people about humanism and self consciousness bringing awareness about them. Once you realize the right perception of the truth and how it works, you can accomplish practically anything because you have confidence knowing you belong and feel an obligation to make the world a better place.

The truth of the universe, this planet, and life is more beautiful and better than any fiction= religion and atheism. Accept the truth of life and yourself and know there is something that makes everything work.

Higher Consciousness

“For Niels Bohr, measurement changes everything. He said that before you measured or observed a particle, its characteristics were uncertain. For example, an electron in the double slit experiment: before the detector at the back pinpoints its location, it could be almost anywhere, with a whole range of possibilities. Until the moment you observe it, and only at that point, will the location's uncertainty disappear.

According to Bohr's approach to quantum mechanics, when you measure a particle, the act of measurement forces the particle to relinquish all of the possible places it could have been and select one definite location where you find it. The act of measurement is what forces the particle to make that choice.” (Brian Greene from the Nova series on PBS)

When we look at the particles around the nucleus, we witness them when we want to see them. It’s this act of measurement that determines where the particle takes its specific location. When you don’t search or even think about them, they are not there. This deals with the idea of consciousness.

Human beings have high consciousness meaning we are able to acknowledge ourselves and others around us. From consciousness comes awareness. From awareness comes brilliance. Both men and animals are conscious and intelligent but only Men can become brilliant. That is the biggest difference. A man can send another man to the moon where a dolphin cannot send another dolphin onto land.

So, what is it that makes us so brilliant? So self-aware? Why do we have this higher consciousness?

The universe is here for consciousness, your consciousness. We have consciousness so we can take care of the things around us. Man is able of being conscientious so that we can take care of the animals that aren’t as self aware as we are. Our gift of being aware and the ability to study and observe the many beautiful things around us helps humans appreciate life.

Scientists want to say that consciousness is an illusion created by the chemicals in the mind. They can see how thoughts come up in the mind based on MRI scanning. They can even tell what you’re thinking! But they cannot tell why. Just because they can figure out the activity of the brain does not mean they know who it is that made these decisions. They cannot find “you” in the brain.

Certain things in life you can only understand, you can’t solve it. It’s a waste of time to try and find your consciousness. You know that you exist and that you are in this body. These things must be understood instead of trying to scientifically prove it.

People need to understand that God created the universe so it can take care of itself. We are a part of this system. The more you understand this, the more brilliant you become. You will then be a conscientious person. When you fully understand and realize the importance of yourself by noticing that everything is here for you and for all consciousness, then you feel confident about yourself and you feel thankful to be alive. You genuinely want to be a great human. Once you are confident and know right from wrong, you get energy and a willingness to accomplish the impossible. When you realize the importance of your consciousness, you’re able to overcome pain, control your feelings, and conquer the most incredible obstacles in life.

I’ve known this since I was a little kid. Once I realized the truth about the universe, God, and life itself, I was unstoppable. I overcame paralyzation. I provided money and food for my family when I was ten years old. I took care of the kids who got bullied making sure no harm came to them. I was very successful in most athletic competitions. I never lost a life during my whole career as a lifeguard (You can read more about my achievements in my book, The Mathematics of Life.) I had the confidence and the energy to be independent at such a young age; I didn’t need people to take care of me. I always took care of myself and appreciated life. I feel that everybody should learn the truth about the universe and life itself so they can have the energy and confidence to accomplish great things.

Unfortunately, not everyone is open to such awareness due to many reasons such as religion. Religion puts consciousness down so they can remain in power. Let’s look at Christianity for example. They claim Eve shared the apple with Adam from the Tree of Knowledge where they gained awareness about they’re nakedness and were thus cast out of the Garden of Eden. They teach the people that they now have original sin because of this story. Original sin refers to the absence of holiness and perfect charity. They’re saying you are bad and need something to redeem yourself. What’s ironic is this is actually quite the opposite. The energy that created the universe is indeed inside you! Like I said, you are conscious and aware so you can enjoy life, not because humans were tempted by a serpent to eat an apple. You are able to do the most amazing things because you are part of the energy of this universe no matter what religion says. Religion simply wants control over you so they can stay in power. They are scared that people can be more powerful than they actually think.

Religious people rely on religious leaders to have all the answers. Traditions keep these people busy so that they have no time for awareness to think about the bigger picture which is all about being conscientious and more humane.

They are only left with something called “Blind Faith” so they don’t have to search for the truth. Why would anyone want to choose blind faith? This takes away from awareness! Blindness is not a good thing. Sure, people who are blind can live normal, healthy lives, but if you gave them the opportunity to see, they’d take it in a second. Blindness should be considered a bad word because it does not allow people to witness what’s right in front of them. The fact that Christianity uses the word “Blind” should be an indicator that they are spreading their own agenda.

The whole world is controlled by people who want power. People like power because they don’t understand the real truth about life. They have something missing in their life and so they seek this power. If you’re weak, you need power so you can overcome your weakness. The weaker you are the more aggressive you are about having authority. When you understand the universe, you don’t need this authority and can become content with the way you are. You already have power to experience life and have a great time.

Our higher consciousness helps us understand and conquer our pain and hunger. You must realize that pain is not all that terrible since it is a part of life. Pain is an indicator of how to take care of your body. It’s like hunger which helps you know your body needs sustenance. Pain and hunger exist so you can appreciate life when you don’t have either. Since the age of 18 to the age of 70, my weight has stayed at 180 pounds. When you become aware, you think about what you’re doing and realize you don’t want to pollute your body. More and more people are becoming obese today because they’re afraid of being hungry. Since food is so cheap in America, they’ll eat junk food like crazy because they are not aware of their own body.

These two elements are important to understand life, and when you don’t experience this, part of you’re awareness gets lost. People in a “higher class” like the rich or the aristocracy will never appreciate the taste of food or understand hunger since they have so much. How can they relate to the starving kids in Africa when they’ve never experienced any sort of hunger themselves?

Darwin’s theory shows that life adapts and progresses into a balance. Man has to progress and adapt to a newer world. When we study the universe, we see a chaos within an order. When we study the atoms and look at the particles, it appears chaotic but then it too comes to an order. When we study evolution we see a chaos that orders itself. When you study the history of man you see a chaos of war that becomes more orderly. Eventually everything comes to an order. God does not play dice as Einstein once said.

There is a crossroad that people come to surrounding this progress where you have to make a decision. One road will take you to selfishness and feeling sorry for yourself and the other road takes you to the awareness of life and the appreciation and love for everything.

Where we see people with conscientiousness, we witness lower birth rates and people who care about the environment and liberty, etc. They took the right path. If you are not conscientious and considerate, then you are on the wrong path.

We’ll end up like the dinosaurs that went on the wrong path because they didn’t create a balance. They were too big eating everything that came in their path. But they did not know any better. We know better because of our higher consciousness. 

Morally Fragile World

We are living in a morally fragile world. An experiment was conducted in 1960 where participants were asked by a doctor to raise the level of a device that would electrically shock someone in the next room. The participants were unaware that the person being “electrically charged” was an actor. Every time they would raise the voltage, the actor would scream in more and more pain. He would even come to the point where he pretended to die if the voltage was raised at its max. The participants simply had to obey or not obey the doctor’s orders.  60% obeyed knowing they were killing someone and 40% disobeyed. In 2011, the same experiment was performed and an overwhelmingly 75% obeyed.

This shows that people are less moral today. The reason they claim is due to television, computers, video games, iPads and cell phones. You see, people are connected to their device and not to other people. They are living in their own world full of fantasy and are not engaging with one another. “People are strange,” according to Jim Morrison. It’s true, it’s difficult to meet and talk to strangers and technology makes it easy for us to put in our headphones, listen to music and ignore the rest of the world. But when you don’t interact with people you lose a sense of camaraderie and this experiment proves it.

The Matrix was all about unplugging from computers so they can see the world for what it is. Inside the Matrix, people are cold and apathetic. Even when the main characters reenter the Matrix, they appear as these stoic programmed figures. They are the images they want to project to their enemies. In the real world, they are human. Loving and caring even in a world that is dark outside. They’re goal is to unplug the others so they can live in a world without the Matrix. Morpheus says some are not ready, the same is true for our world.

Atheists are part of this mission of unplugging people and helping them realize that religion is useless, but they are still not seeing the whole picture.  We are conscious human beings; there would be no universe if consciousness did not exist. When you look at the sky, the ocean, the rainbow, the stars, the moon, and all the creatures, you realize it is for us to enjoy.

There are two types of imagination that affect morality. One type is the childish way that has value for children but not for adults. Grown men and women envision God as a person who watches over them like Santa Claus. Then there’s the other one based on knowledge and common sense creating innovation and progress. Space exploration is the result of this kind of imagination. To be moral you have to know what is real. You can’t believe that Prince Charming will save you from whatever bad thing is going on in your life. You’re living in a fantasy world, the Matrix.

The moral experiment mentioned above reflects our society. It’s like a game; people just let others die and it’s no problem. The same thing is happening around the world where people are dying and no one cares to stop it. There are a billion slaves still, animals are tortured every day, the environment is polluted and the planet is overheating. This is not an experiment, this is real life! Your awareness surrounding life will open you to love but love does not exist without moral justice. You don’t have to join a religion or obey others rules to understand moral justice. Simply think for yourself and understand the right way to become an outstanding human being. 

Aliens!

My friend Dan always talks to me about aliens. He says they are all around us and have been around for thousands of years. He says governments around the world are worried about all of this. If this is true, then these aliens must be very intelligent to be able to travel a long distance to this planet. They must be way smarter than any of our scientists. But why would anyone have a problem with intelligent creatures? If an alien knocked on my front door, I would open it and ask, “What do you prefer, coffee or tea?” From my experience, I’ve never had problems with intelligent people, the problems I have are with the stupid ones. Don’t worry about aliens, worry about the stupid people on this planet.

The problem with stupid people is they fight for what they believe in instead of what they should know because they are not interested in knowing, they’re interested in fighting. They become obsessed with their beliefs where any intelligent conversation cannot take place. They become extremists willing to kill you or themselves, so how can you communicate with them? They should be reprogrammed to think for themselves through education and understand that believing is not knowing.

The way you think for yourself is to write down a few questions you don’t understand, sit down with a cup of coffee or tea with some friends and talk about it or talk to yourself, your dog or cat. What is it that bothers you? Before I go to sleep I ask God to help me with some question and in the morning I usually have an answer. When you spend more time thinking for yourself, you’d be surprised about what you could find out.

Going back to the discussion I had with Dan, I developed my own theory on how aliens can move in space so swiftly. It was interesting to consider that alien spacecrafts fly faster than the speed of light and can change directions rapidly. It reminded me of the particle around the nucleus. When you electrically stimulate these particles around the nucleus they jump from one orbit to another faster than the speed of light. Nobody knows how this happens yet.

Since there are permanent orbits around the nucleus then it’s quite possible that the universe is not a blanket like some scientists thought but a place where the magnetic field created circles which we consider as orbits. It’s like when you throw a stone in a lake and it creates these rings. In space, the magnetic power of the planets creates these rings but they remain permanent. The earth gets caught in this ring which we call our orbit and the moon gets caught in the earth’s ring which we call the moon’s orbit, etc. These aliens could have figured out a way to imitate the particle around the atomic nucleus and can jump around from one orbit to another orbit faster than the speed of light.

I just want to show that when you think for yourself you come up with all kinds of different theories. It makes scientists think about other possibilities to find the truth. You cannot find the truth when everybody believes in the same thing, it’s unproductive. How can anyone find the truth if they stick to what people have believed for thousands of years? The way to find the truth is to think for yourself. By having all these different theories, we will find the truth about whatever we imagine. Wouldn’t that be great?

The Misunderstanding of Truth

Some people misunderstand my explanation of how I’ve proven to Some people watch magic shows because it makes them feel good. Some people watch movies because it makes them feel good as well. But they all know that it is just a bag of tricks, they are suspended in disbelief for an hour and a half and then they go back to their lives. People do not realize it is the same thing with religion which is all just a bag of tricks. The difference is when people leave the church, they carry on this disbelief that has been fed to them by a magician preaching the word of God. The reason they stay in disbelief is because it makes them feel better. People need a way to cope with the stresses of day to day life, but there’s a problem; these people let others think for them causing hate to others, like homosexuals for example.

 

Religion influences a person’s way of believing in the same way, atheists influence people to not believe in God, it is just like religion. My message here and in my book The Mathematics of Life is very simple…THINK FOR YOURSELF.

 

Humans have their own heads to think for themselves. It’s important that people understand we are all capable of being humane. Our goal as a species is to get along and make the planet a better place for humanity and all other beings. What we learn from the story of Babel is if we keep on “babeling” and bickering over beliefs we won’t get anything done. (I know this is not what they teach you in Church, I discuss this more in the book) We should not separate ourselves into different belief-oriented organizations where some people believe in this and others believe in that. When a bunch of people believe in the same thing, it becomes a power. People in power become bullies. No bully has the right to use force on an individual because the rights of the individual to be their own person is the most important right.

When you think for yourself you come up with a result. If other people think for themselves, they actually help humanity come up with new concepts to help the world. Most scientists who think for themselves come up with different theories and do not physically fight about it. They actually like to hear other theories about what their colleague’s came up with so they can find a better way of understanding something. With these theories comes the truth through tests. They don’t stick to one theory and let it sit forever, like religion.

There is no way for all people to think the same thing, there are still people who believe the Earth is flat... http://theflatearthsociety.org/cms/. My point is they are all thinking the same way because they did not come to that conclusion by themselves. If someone wants to believe the Earth is flat, then great. Good for him. But when people let themselves believe that person’s theory on only that person’s evidence, they become a blind follower. I’m saying, don’t be influenced. Be an individual. Find your own proof. Do you believe everything you read, hear or watch?

myself that there is a power in this universe. As a child, I realized I had self awareness. I knew that I was in this body.  By thinking for myself, I figured there has to be a power, the more I learned the more I understood the power of the universe. I named that power GOD.

 

The experiences I discussed in my book happened to me. I learned from it. It became knowledge. It is true to me because of that life experience. I do not have to prove it to anyone. Only you can prove things to yourself. What makes sense to you? I cannot prove that you are in your body; you have to prove that to yourself. It’s just like what René Descartes said, “I think, therefore I am.”

 

Religious people have a hard time admitting that throughout history, their religion has been the cause of many terrible things. In fact, many atrocities are still happening today in the name of religion. They say, “That’s not my religion, those are just the extremists!” But the extremists came from their religion. They are not thinking for themselves and are following the varied interpretations of their “holy” books.

They say beliefs are harmless but so many people have died over beliefs for centuries. American citizens died on September 11, 2001 because the Muslim extremists believed in their ridiculous doctrine. The problem is once you belong to an organization you are brought together by your one belief. This is unhealthy because in religion, you are letting people you believe have a direct connection to God tell you what to believe in.

People who think for themselves made the world a better place, from Archimedes all the way to Steve Jobs. (These people are all discussed in my book). People with different views actually enjoy discussing their views together because it helps them with their understanding. This is contrary to religion where they will shun or even kill you if you don’t think the way they do.

My book is not like other books, it is an example of how to think for yourself and how there are so many benefits that come because of it. It is not a book to make you part of the collective. It’s quite the opposite.

When you think for yourself you find the truth.

Think For Yourself

I want you to think for yourself. Just because I know there is a God does not mean I want you to know there is a God. I simply want you to think for yourself. Don’t let religion or atheists influence the way you think. Think for yourself! My book, The Mathematics of Life, explores my extraordinary life and how I came to know God. I am just an example of critical thinking. I thought for myself. I came to the conclusion that there is a God. This book is not a message for people to become my disciples, it’s quite the opposite. I want you to think for yourself.

This phrase deserves repeating because people do not think for themselves, they only think they do. Really take the time to consider whether your beliefs came from your parents, school or religion. God has nothing to do with religion. Religion explores ways on how to believe in God. Do you see the difference? They enslave people to become mindless followers. Man is not able to become human unless they think for themselves. My book examines this in more detail; I just don’t want you to misinterpret what I am trying to say.

Morality

Some people say, “What is moral for you is not moral for me.” How so? It is vital for the human race to understand morality if we are to live in a free thinking society where religion is out of date.  Morality is a word that has a lot of meaning for different people because a lot of people don’t understand the meaning of the word. Everyone must learn there is only one moral code for all of us.

Morality is a code one must follow to be considerate about life itself. When I say life, I mean anything that is alive; humans, animals, even our Earth. To be moral is to help with problems, not to cause them. One must think before they act so they know what they are doing follows with that moral code. To understand this or even anything else, you have to think for yourself and experience what you are trying to understand. Be considerate of the situation.

Once you understand morality and change to become humane, you find out that you appreciate this planet, animals and everything else. You get joy out of being alive and being part of humanity. Happiness in life occurs. But most people focus on money, family drama, government and religion which are all distractions. It moves people in the wrong direction. People don’t understand morality because they don’t see the bigger picture of taking care of our planet. We focus on our own survival forgetting the fact that you would not exist if it was not for Earth. To understand life, you have to want to learn. The more you know the more you’ll enjoy life, care for others, and become a more humane and moral person.

Dian Fossey was an American zoologist who specialized in studying gorillas. By learning everything about these animals, Dian appreciated the gorilla’s lives. The overpopulated village living near the gorillas tried to take care of themselves to survive. They did the immoral thing and killed the gorillas so they can sell the limbs and parts to tourists. When Dian found out about this, she almost burned the village down! (She did not actually do it like the movie based on her life suggests.) She loved these gorillas and understood that life is so important. Dian was so angry at the people in the village because she grew to love these gorillas. She knows that people who don’t understand morality don’t understand life.  

Creating a situation where taxpayers have to pay for the bill is inconsiderate and immoral. People throw their trash on the streets and in the ocean. Why should the hardworking taxpayer pay for people’s inconsideration of our planet? For example, people bring their unneutered (male) dogs to public dog parks where they harass female dogs and could potentially impregnate them. We, the hardworking taxpayers, will end up with more unwanted dogs in the shelter. If you don’t understand this and you bring your dog to harass other dogs and create more unwanted puppies, then you are an inconsiderate nincompoop.

Some people are used to having their way at home because they are spoiled. They feel a sense of entitlement when they go out in the public and don’t understand how to be considerate. There are a bunch of inconsiderate people out there that make the world a terrible place, don’t be one of them. If you have a dog who is unneutered please keep him at home or have him fixed. This is just a small example of the bigger picture. 

Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs is one of the greatest men of our time but he made one mistake that cost him his life. Instead   of listening to the people who know like his doctors, Steve Jobs listened to people who only believed. He did not listen to the advice of his doctors who told him he needed surgery. Instead, Mr. Jobs listened to his religion. He studied the Buddhist religion which, just like every religion, teaches you to believe in things. Religion teaches magic, it is all tricks. The best magicians actually go to India to learn the best tricks. But Steve Jobs believed like so many people that if you believe enough and are sincere enough, the cancer would disappear.

You have to be gung-ho about life. That’s what keeps people healthy. You understand life is nothing but a challenge. It’s the attitude, that’s what my friend Margaret Burk, the first female CEO in our country, had to say. She recently passed away at the age of 94. They asked her how come she lived so long and she said, “Your attitude about life is what makes you live longer.”

Listen to the people who know not to the people who don’t know. I explain in my book that believing is not knowing. If you believe, then you do not know.  www.themathematicsoflife.com

Slavery

When mankind first had a sense of awareness about their existence, they understood there was an energy of the universe. There were those who knew magic and took advantage of this situation by tricking the masses so they can stay in power. Thus, religion was created where people started to believe in hocus pocus. The whole idea was to make people focus on something while behind the scenes the people in power were doing something else, usually something a lot more sinister. This still exists till today.

People who are religious think of themselves as kind, sensitive and moral, but they do not see the whole picture of life. Torture, inquisitions, burning people at the stake, and cutting heads off are ignored by these people because they are focusing on their religion or government. People should stop focusing on their religion and governments and start focusing on morality.

Morality makes the law. Religious or government mandated laws do not make moral people. The destiny of man is to become humane.

For years, people have ignored the fact that slavery still exists. Now that there are less and less jobs, people are getting pissed off and want their jobs back. People in this country have to compete with slavery which is impossible. How can anyone earn a descent wage here when a company can just hire someone in a different country for 20 cents a day? Rich people will hire slaves over Americans every time because it is more profitable to them.

The wealthy want to be richer because they are sick with an addiction. Their addiction is money. They’ll do anything to screw their fellow man to get more and more and more.

The rich people want to own everything, that’s why they want to get rid of social security. They want to have real slaves making people work until they’re ninety years old. They don’t understand humans will not put up with this.

Today, we have over 1 billion slaves in the world. They have slaves in Africa, Northern Europe, and China. It’s almost everywhere. How can countries with no slaves compete with countries with slaves? That’s why America had the Civil War where a million Americans died to free or keep the enslaved people. Another serious change must happen to end all of slavery. They have to free these slaves in the world in order to have jobs come back to America. Like the UN which protects countries from aggressive behavior, they’ll have to create a United Humanity to make sure no human is a slave.

Morality must be in charge, not the law. Morality is the highest achievement of man; it is not about who can be the richest. You can be the biggest idiot in the world and be rich but you have to be a great person to be humane.

Life is nothing but a challenge and this is the challenge for humanity; to make life here on Earth a better place for existence. 

Brainwashed

     This must be the greatest book ever written. Some atheists who read this book think this is another religious book. And some religious people who read this book think this is another atheist book. This only shows how brainwashed some people are. When people read, they have a brainwashed understanding. When a person says “no” the brainwashed person understands that as “yes.” It’s like when women say “no” but some men still want to hear “yes.” They only understand yes. The question is what part of the word “no” do they understand, the “n” or the “o?”

     Some people don’t understand the meaning of words. If they don’t know, they should look it up in a dictionary. Readers should try to understand before they make a decision about this book what the words really mean, not what the words mean to them.

     This book is about how to understand life without all the hang-ups. It will help you reach your full potential. That’s my goal here.

New Book

My new book, The Mathematics of Life, will be coming out soon!
