 We May Live in Interesting Times ...

In these time we may be living under the spell of an assumption that science and technology give us all there is to know. You tell me! God? Not a shred of scientific evidence. You gotta prove it!

[As if God needed proof!]

More. And — Danke Mein Gott im Himmel — science and technology will always be smart and capable enough to solve problems we create as they may show up. Even the unintended lousy consequences of actions undertaken with little forethought. In other words, “No need to be too careful on policy, we can fix it on the back end”. Only, it better take well to a good spin with the Hoi Polloi. [So we elect likeable dummies.]

Going a step further ... Perhaps the powers that be [READ: Those prominent in the public eye attempting to enlist the Populusque Romanus in their narrative frame.] they are just doing some good old-fashioned "Magical Thinking". That is, the kind of thinking that lives in its own exclusive self-created frame that is based on the idea that if a sufficient majority of people buy into it [the narrative], well, that's what reality will be. Of course, we know about that; it’s called political propaganda.

No, but I'm referring the kind of "Magical Thinking" that has it that reality for us is what someone we are conditioned to believe in decides it should be. Who for all we know most likely will be in full-blown egohood mode, and believing that they can manipulate the public consciousness so completely that they can wield the power of manifestation through the collective supportive energy. Like, reality is what you not only say it is, but things show up just the way you want. Literally. [A Ferrari in the garage in the morning. If not sooner.]

BTW. I believe such power of manifestation is in fact possible for us Humans. But, only on the Creator-instilled proviso that what we want to show up in our reality is in line with the Way of Things. There is such a thing as the Word of God. One who hears it acts accordingly. Acts well. “Well” being for the good of all.

What’s really interesting about these times perhaps is that we’re becoming aware of all this going on. Not just playing the game, seeing the game for what it is. A game. 

Now we can change the rules.
