Dear IAMIAM,
I've been reading this site for a long time, and I've been always very interested in the subjects discussed here. But I had never felt compelled to register to make any remarks on any thread. However, today finally I have registered, only to say a big THANK YOU, brother. Your post is the most sound, pure, truthful message ever released here. Thanks for your words or warning, your message of pure love, thanks for being.
I love you, brother as much as you love me. In fact, we are all one.
Love and Light,
Light seeker

All of us know what we need to do,those who profit from our pain have the power to intimidate us into submission.
Don't comply.
Nothing they do to us is without our consent.
Don't consent.
And now the argument starts over what to not consent to.
We all know already,what we need to do.
Someday,it will become too apparent,that the only sure fire way to stop a conflict,is to remove the very supporting elements of the conflict itself.The thing that makes it possible is/are us.
And to end it,it will be us who are destroyed.
Or we will stand together,against those who try to pry us apart from every direction.
Stop being tricked into playing this sick game.

Mankind has lost its way from its divine purpose. Our divine purpose is to exist in a state of love.

I'm sorry, can you please reference a period of history in which mankind existed in a state of love?

If what you say is true then man was created to embody the virtue of love, and if that is the case then we have strayed far from that path, perhaps beyond any sort of redemption. People today are petty self-indulgent creatures who care only about what is close to them, what is within arm's length of them, of what they can physically take. Man has lived WITH nature for untold millennia but now man lives OFF of nature instead. I long to see the days when man's cities and accomplishments are leveled and razed to the ground, then man will be forced to live with nature once more and will in time, come to appreciate what they have, things immaterial, things that our great bastions of civilization never gave us, love of all things natural. A deep spiritual love, a spiritual connection that signifies each person simply as one of many created to exist in harmony with nature.
If this idea was truly the "kingdom of heaven" then it is long gone and man's misguided sense of morals and justice material possession will never be overruled without some sort of great disaster or purification... And that can only come about with the deaths of untold billions...
We must walk through the endless layers of hell before we can see the light of heaven once more and I don't think man has what it takes...

Welcome to the thread my friend. First, love the screen name. Slayer has always been in my top five metal bands, and 420, well that happens to be my favorite day of the year. Now to your post, my original post is MY truth. This is important to understand because I am not trying to convert folks. You either believe it or keep searching for something to believe. If what you currently believe brings you peace, joy and love, keep it my friend. Everyone has their own free will, use it how you see fit, and let no one tell you other wise. Just be willing to extend the same regard to others.
Now lets talk about this view of hell we now live in. Yes people are vicious, cruel, and oppressive. Yes it is a dog eat dog world out there. It got this way because we allowed it to. When we grew up into it, we became part of this system of destruction. How do we change this?
Well you can't change anothers will. We cannot continue to destroy each other for not changing, that only breeds the same environment we already have. So, the only thing you CAN change is yourself. The positive change that is needed to change the whole system is to become a more loving individual. Nothing else so moves others to change than pure non-judgemental love. Yes it is hard. Yes it means taking some hits and ridicule. Yes the inner work is hard. BUT... The world we can make tomorrow will be that much better for our efforts.
So, here are some cliche bits of wisdom:
A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
Be the change you want to see.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Ok enough cliches...
So my friend, the choice is up to you. What ever you decide, you are not alone in your journey. It is my hope that this thread continues on that all can learn from each other and support each other. Share your experiences and perspectives freely here. I will not judge, and there are many others here who won't.
It is all about making a positive change within to make a positive change without.
Judge not, Love all, be at peace.
With Love,
Your Brother

What you say makes sense in an intentionally vague way, but in the end, what change can one person, no matter how well guided ultimately make against the subverted masses and insidious cabals that rule our world? You say that those trying to change others positively will receive endless ridicule, but have you considered that it is so for a reason? If there have been men truly working to change humanity for the better then their opposition is truly overwhelming and THAT is why one person cannot change even so much as another person let alone the misguided masses...
Man works against itself... if it even is man, and the innumerable unseen enemies lurking in the shadows will wait until the time is right to strike. Those with true love and benevolence in their hearts will not be able to bring themselves to raise arms against their oppressive keepers and that is why I say the only thing that can truly change mankind is a great unforeseeable disaster that can wipe away the impure. As gruesome as it sounds, it is the only way mankind will ever make a change to the utopia you envision so brilliantly.
