chapter 10

vs. 2: I can assure you that they are devoted to God; but their devotion is not based on true knowledge. EQ

vs. 5: Moses wrote ... "Whoever obeys the commands of the Law will live." EQ

And for those who still ignore the Torah. Moses, who wasn't really likely real, was a tyrant.

Those who did not obey his Law. The Law of Moses.

Were hacked down with a sword. Butchered and his or her body thrown out of camp for the vultures to eat.

So flog off with what Moses said.

Moses needs to be weeded out of our species if we want our species to one day be something other than slaves to the big plunder business.

All the heroes in our history were tyrants.

Our history is nothing to make a religion out of. And there is no point to dwell on it.

vs. 6: ... Who will go up into heaven? EQ

We are here in heaven. Not because we were sent here. Because we evolved here. Because it was possible to evolve here. And more important than possible. It was necessary. And we don't need a reason. Just a direction.

vs. 12: ... there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles... EQ

vs. 15: "How wonderful is the coming of messengers who bring good news!" EQ

Ain't that a true thing. And I'm happy to say, that I could be one of those messengers. The news. We are in heaven. We are the gods.

chapter 11

It looks like we must traverse another lake of shit.

vs. 8: ... "God made their minds and hearts dull, to this very day they cannot see or hear." EQ

No. God didn't nothing. Most people are dull. People need to be stimulated by life events and we have run away from life. Cut it down and built big barriers of illusion. The majority of humans in the western world watch TV. Very, very dull. They fall into a dream world and give up their participation.

One way entertainment from the mad men who want us to obey, shut up, cower in fear and work for them. Those shitty they people. With all the Gold.

vs. 10: May their eyes be blinded so that they can not see;
and make them bend under their troubles at all times. EQ

That is pretty serious people. The owners of the planet say that. Read it again. You are being beaten so that you stay a frightened slave.

The rest of the chapter is what's up with Jews and Gentiles. And there simply is no difference. God does not choose. Life allows. We choose.

We choose to obey or we choose to wake up and be the guardians of paradise.

There is so much space to do as we please.

But we won't get there if it does not please us to open our eyes and ears and choose to do what we must do if we rather eternity over extinction.

Am I, we, getting through.

chapter 12

The teacher of our creative writing course in Toronto said, as a joke. A story has a beginning a muddle and an end. The books of the old new testament are backwards to this classic form. The muddle is everywhere and somewhere in the middle of the sea of running in circles is some information buried.

vs. 2: Do not conform yourself to the standards of this world but let God(s) transform you inwardly by a complete change of your mind. EQ

I can agree with that. It ain't like you trip out, it's more like you throw off all the symbols. Here is an easy lesson to do on your own.

Walk through the woods and take no names with you. Let it swallow you and control your senses. Don't reach for conclusions or definitions. Let it be. Demand no more than your space.

vs. 4: We have many parts in the one body, and all these parts have different functions. 5. In the same way, though we are many, we are one body in union... EQ

Paul tells us not to be lazy and put our hearts into what we do. This is good advice. But don't waste too much time doing things you don't enjoy.

Someone else said. Do what you do as if you were performing it for the world. Even if it is washing the dishes. Live every moment so that you are full of it.

I still really hate vacuuming.
