When I saw this story Gene came to mind
Local World War II Veteran Fights Homeowner's Association.
90 year-old Colonel Barfoot lives in the Sussex Square community in western Henrico County. He moved there in July, and was ordered to remove the flagpole from his front lawn when he flew the flag on Labor Day, and again on Veterans Day.www.wtvr.com/news/wtvr-veteran-flagpole,0,2550197.story

When I wrote the story about flying my halfheimers was active. Halfheimers results in forgetting half of the things you know all the time or all of the things you know half of the time. Anyways, as Larry would say, I couldn't remember how to spell qualified. Two days later I remember the rule from my youth: change the y to i and add ed.

Life Among The Dweebs
Part I. The Beginning.
The Creator moved and expressed himself in thought. Thoughts are things and have records imprinted on the fabric of time and space. He created the Universal Laws and enervated them with Spirit. First of these was the Law of Cause and Effect. Then came Laws of Gravity, Diversity and so on. All of these Laws operate within the Universe according to the motions and enervating spirit which Created them. They are immutable and everlasting asthe Universe Continues.
Part II. Mankind.
As the Creation began with the first Cause all souls or entities were created in the image of that Created, i.e. as Mind and Spirit. The Active Principle of Mind, in Godlike Manner is capable of Conceiving things as they are and may become. And as such The Creator, or God, gave us all Free Will to exercise our minds as we will, for it was his desire that we should become co-creators with him in that which he has set forth.
More or less, all of the Chaos in the Universe during the Early Periods was a result of Souls exercising their Free Will until such time as they learned the restraints of self discipline. Souls who floated about the Universe came into the Gravitational Pull of the Earth Planet in the Solar System. This being a three dimensional planet, with an ongoing Continuum of Evolutional Development, they wondered about flora and fauna, wind in the trees, clouds and things. Of course these things had no names as we define them as they had yet to be defined.
They wondered what it would be like to have the experinces of animals that ranged about the fields and streams, the wind on the leaves in the trees and all manner of sea creatures. When they discussed entering into materiality the were afraid that they would die. Lucier, the Light Bearer, said, "You Shall not Surely Die." So many did. Only to find that they had become trapped until the animal or tree, etc, died and they could once again move about freeely.
Note. This is mentioned in the Bible Scriptures as The Serpent in the Garden.
Iesu, the one we call The Christ arranged a plan to develop Mankind and with the help of others set about on the long road to complete that task. When the physical bodies had been developed to the point of that which we call Homo Sapiens souls then entered the chosen body and thus Mankind began. As animal bodies enervated with souls or spirit/mind.
Part III. The Earthly Sojourn.
Animals are generally aware of their environment but they are not aware that they are aware. Or so the scientists will say. When an entity enters into the physical body, the soul animates the body with spiritual life as well as physical life. We say that we have three bodies: Our Phiscal Life (the physical corporeal body), the Spiritual Body and the Mental or Astral Body which is the active principle of Mind; that which was Created in the Image of the Creator from the Beginning. The Flash of Inspiration which Created all Souls remains with everyone as a memory beyond which we may not recall.
As we live our lives from the first to the last we are governed by the Universal Laws which affect and operate upon us both from the Mental/Spiritual as well as the Physical Aspect. Acts of Omission or Commission made in the flesh must be met in the flesh. No one would be able to settle the debts of a lifetime in one lifetime so the Heavenly System requires us to return again and again to Earthly Life so as to make opportunies to reap what we sow and thus attain Merit. Merit may be said to entail the gains and losses we have accumulated during our soujourns thus far. As a life concludes and shortly after physical death the judgement occurs: A fast play of the events of your past acts, good or bad. After a short pause for reflection you then see a slow play for better understanding of the importance from a soul growth standpoint of the past life's experiences. This then gives the soul the ability to recall and understand the meaning and impact of the decisions made by the individual.
To many of us, this is a hard pill to swallow. We as Christians or whatever, have been led to believe that we are here for a one time show and that when it's over, it's over. We should try to understand that decisions made by rch Elders or those who have gone before to keep us in the dark as to the "Facts of Life" were done so with the best of intentions. So too the fact that "The Curtain of Memories" comes down when we enter.
So it behooves each of us to understand that God is no respecter of persons and that we are all equal in his sight. He may be delighted in appreciation of the acts of one or more of his "children" but understand this: "What is between God and a man has nothing to do between God and any other man. Or vice versa."
The Goal of all of us must be to attain Christ Consciousness here as a result of our lives here so as to overcome the attractions of the Earth and go on to the other mansions in the Heavenly Experience.
Understand that all of our thoughts are imprinted upon the fabric of time and space which provides a permanent record in what is called "God's Book of Life" or the Akashic Record. Recall that the Lord gave some new names. This began new records under the new name. For example when God brought Abram from beyond the flood in Ur of the Chaldees He changed his name to Abraham, thereby starting a new record for the rest of his soujourn in that experience
Through meditation, hypnosis or altered states of consciousness using artificial means of relaxation one may be regressed to prior events or lifetimes to aid in better understanding of situations which confront us in this one. Only sincere prayer and acceptance will likely result in opening the Golden Door to gain access to the records under seal.
You need to understand that Just Because Someone is Dead, doesn't make him any smarter, per se, so be aware of discarnates attempting mischief. Should that occur during your investigation admonish him to get behind you. Always pray for guidance and protection before any attempts in going beyond the curtain.
In view of the above we should rejoice that we are Blessed with a Plan which provides for the means toward redemption for our errors in judgement and worse through the mechanisms involved. It is up to us as to what to do with that as given.
F I N I S
The Bible says that in the days of the end times the Mystery of Death Shall Be Revealed. The meaning of that passage is that Death of the Body in the Earth Plane will be at an end for those advancing onward towards God's Plan. For others the endless cycle of birth and death until a soul's destiny in this system is fulfilled. World Without End. Amen.

This is an easy way to think about the beginning and the end: Consider the surface topology of the kline bottle. It has no beginning or end but it just is at any point on the surface. If you start at a point on the surface and move around you will always go back to where you started. A kline bottle is a mathematical construct which is not possible in three dimensions. One would have to imagine it in more than three dimensions, say four, the fourth being time. There is no such thing as time, just something man uses to keep track of chronological events, ie things which happen one after another. In the Universe there is only NOW. When you step one pace after Midnight you are in today. History no longer exists in time. Mankind, as souls, with body, mind and spirit (The Three Dimensions) of our earthly experiences) are expressed by the activity of our minds in what we call reality. This then is recorded on the Akashic Record (The Bhuddist name for God's Book of Life) and our subconscious mind as our store of knowledge (all of our thoughts as Mind the Builder for all since our beginning at the Flash Of Inspiration by the Creator which created all Souls in the beginning. Thoughts are things. Therefore they exist and are thus recorded. They are the things which we conceive with our mind, the active principle of God's expression and our gift from Him in his image. I.e we have mind and spirit to activate it and create our reality as things we build in the Earth Plane. I hope these sites and this information will have something to think about and give you everyone comfort that the we are all alike, In God's eyes and yet because of the Law of Diversity which affected our creation we are therefore different as we have our being and our experiences from beginning to end of our individual existances. scidiv.bcc.ctc.edu/MATH/Mobius.htmlen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klein_bottleIt is written that we meet ourselves every day. Those things which we find unacceptable in others are but reflections of deficiencies within our own character.

For those strict constuctionists like DJ let me speak to you about how Iesu, The Christ Soul set about creating mankind as we know it. He showed other souls a thought form, an example of what MAN would look like. They then began the long difficult task working concurrently on an object for change. That being, since the ongoing evolution (or as I like to say, "Developmental Continuum) they took apes as the evolutionary tool for advancement.
Each working about the animal shaping it toward the example shown through the glands and systems over long periods. Finally on the Day of Celebration when Heavenly Entities entered into Physical Bodies to live out the remainder ot that body. Thus began the plan for Mankind. Spiritual consciousness within an animal body. Since free will was involved on the part of each of us, it was up to us to live in these bodies in a civilized manner of social discourse.
The Bible is replete with stories of instances where some of us have made bad choices over the centuries. History has shown that we haven't really learned the ways in which we should get along with one another or among nations.
While we are here we are really in the same boat and it behooves each of us to try to live as He would have us do.

During the days when I was involved in Religious/Spiritual Research I regressed a person who revealed that he was a stone cutter on the Temple at asner in egypt. Later at a session when he was taken back to his age at that time of fifty. He had become a Master Stone Carver. Note the lotus leave capitals on the columns there. www.ancientegyptonline.co.uk/esnatemple.htmlHe was aware of the methods for the transportation of large stones from the quarry. He said that as long as stones were moved along within the lines they would remain weightless but if a worker stumbled and pushed the stone outside the lines they would retain their gravity and accidents would occur if anyone was in the way.

Roth, the stone carver was taken back to the time of Atlantis. He had a lifetime there as Paul, a person involved in bringing civilization to rural areas of the world; the diplomatic service as it were.
I asked him if he had heard of Amelius. He said, "I have a friend named Amelius. He is very popular with the ladies."
Edgar Cayce, in trance, revealed that Jesus lived in Atlantis where his name was Amelius. He also said, Jesus or the Christ Soul was Adam, Enoch grandfather of Noah, Melchisadek, the King of Salem to who Abraham paid tithes; Joshua and Jeshua who rewrote the Bible after the captivity in Babylon.
My studies lead me to believe that He was also The Teacher of Righteousness who lived among the Essenes.

While we are on such subjects let me make more people unhappy with this:
The Rapture
Regarding the Development of the Rapture as a Religious Construct stemming from the Nineteenth Century as posited by Darby, Tyler, et al. Taking certain passages from the Bible these clerics started a movement to encourage the belief among Christians that at the time of the end as foretold in the Book of Revelations and mentioned in the Gospels and other instances people would be "Taken Up."
The assumptions made and their beliefs have gained many adherants and become widespread. The passages which say things like "Two will be working in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two will be working in the threshing room; one will be taken and the other left.
The contrary view of the assumption is that the ones taken means taken by the Angel of Death. The basis for this is based upon Jesus words in the Book of Matthew: "I say to you that if the time be not shortened (as in the case of forty years wandering in the wilderness) there would be no one left alive in the Earth. But for the Elect's the time will be shortened."
If then, the Elect are still here after a Rapture Event and are in need of the shortening of the events foretold refered to as "The Tribulation" then why is this so if everyone (believers) has departed. Do these gentlemen believe that a Beneficent God will take up only the believers of a certain Faith or group and leave others behind. That seems unbelievable. God is no Respecter of Persons and sees all his Created in the same light. Of course he undoubtedly would be pleased at the activities of some and displeased with others.
So this whole idea is inconsistent with the concept of taking up the few and leaving the rest. It is more likely that everyone left in the Earth at the time of events foretold will undergo all of these events and in some sense those "taken" might be better off.
The Plan for Mankind is based upon the Creation of a means for Souls to experience the Earth and overcome the attractions of life on God's Green Earth so as to move on to other regions and activies of the Developmental Continuum of Creation. The Plan includes all aspects of the development of physical bodies to house the corporeal entity while here. Since the Soul consists of Mind and Spirit in its natural state this is necessary for this method of existing in the three dimensional being of Earth.
This concept developed by the Christ and implemented by other Souls assisting in the evolution of the example. It is possible that the Christ created a Thought Form Image of that which would appear in animal form with a enervating to house the Mind and Spirit of that which was Created in the Beginning for its Earthly Sojourns. That way everyone would be working with the same effort.
It must be understood that for this to work it was necessary to use to things at hand in the area of the Planet. So it was agreed to use an Ape as the best building block to develop man. Hovering about these creatures Souls exercise the active principle of Mind to influence the activities and bodies of these creatures operating through changing the physical anatomy through glands and organs.
Over the long period of time to complete the process it then became the day of the big event: An animal creature with a Spiritual and Mental Entity or Soul within. Animals by their nature are aware of their environment. But they are not aware that they are aware. Humans with the Mind/Spirit of Souls of the Creation thus encased, so to speak, are so aware.
So that is how we came to be what we are and where we are and what we do while we are here. All along the way humans have been guided and helped by the Christ Soul and his companions to achieve the inevitable end of our Sojourns here: Atonement with the Christ Consciousness through return to the Creator.
Along the way here we are a little better, there little more self indulgent. What mankind needs to learn is that we are all brothers and that it behooves all of us to learn to live together in peace and harmony as God would wish us to do. It is a shame that we have become so self indulgent with exercising our talents given us in our best interest to our detriment.
As each life is lived we either gain or lose merit toward the ultimate goal. We have to stay going through the endless cycle of birth/death until we learn our lessons. The ongoing movements of things of the Universe go about their way as set in motion by the First Cause operating in acccord with the Universal Laws and Forces which act upon them. Therefore it is natural that disasters happen.
The Earth has undergone many changes over the eons of time and will continue to do so until its purpose is fulfilled. Since we are here we are subject to its environment and must learn to live here with all its aches and pains.
A word about one of those: Before the time we call the "End of Days" which are really not the end comet will visit the Earth causing all manner of havoc. This sort of thing has happened time and again. Not only that but since it will have an orbit for return again and again since its orbit is influenced by our own gravitational field. There are four periods mentioned in the Bible for this end time. They refer, either as periods of weeks, years or days but amount to an orbit of three and a half years.
The most important of these is the last for at that instance the Son of Man will return. The key to understanding when that will be is "The Abomination Which Maketh Desolate" set up in the Temple. There is no Temple. It was destroyed in the Time of the Romans. The Muslims constructed the Dome of the Rock Mosque there. One of these events of the Comet or some other event must cause its destruction.
Whatever. The Messenger will come to Measure the Temple. The Forerunner will come to Reestablish the Daily Sacrifice. The Usurper will work his machinations until the time is fulfilled and these days of infamy will end.

It is obvious that this piece on the Rapture was created at an earlier time and sounds repetitive but bear with the old guy who has enough difficulty with stiff fingers tip toein through the keyboard.
The meat and potatoes are there or herewithal.

Gene, you have no idea how heartened I am by your return here. Do please stay. I logged on just to tell you that. Gotta run, though. Have a great night.

On the day after Pearl Harbor day I have been watching the Fall of France etc and the Battle of Britian. I am reminded of the decisions made by Ike during the war. He bowed to the political aspects to save Loraine in spite of the costs in men's lives.
The Franco-Prussian War of 1887 gave Alsace-Loraine to the Germans but after WW I the French recovered the territory. Then Germany took it back after the June War in the West.
Patton's third army had a lot of losses taking the Medieval City of Metz and the nearby heavily fortified fortress. It would have been better to bypass the place and let the germans starve as MacArther was wont to do in the pacific.
Bernard Law Montgomery, a dandy who always liked to wait for numerical superiority as Julius the Kaiser did. His plan for Market Garden to take Aachen, Aix la Chapelle was a costly mistake and rendered Patton somewhat impotent due to the fuel robbery from his forces.
When Patton came to the aid of the forces in Bastogne he advised Ike to cut the Germans off and starve them. Ike voted to push them back to Germany. A very costly mistake. I suspect that might have been Monty's Idea as he didn't have the stomach for the pincer movement which would have encilrcled them.
Such is the twenty twenty hindsight of history.
Fiction and fact from Sam's Almanac.
