No, Brian, I am not flattered that some narcissist without any concern for

me wastes my time and limited energy with spam (or telephone solicitations

or credit card offers). And asking to be d does no good

whatsoever. It simply confirms your email address and they send even more.

Frankly, I don't give a rat's <bleep> if these invasive crooks go under.

Anyone who resorts to the tactics they do deserve to go under.

 

Hard economic times are NO excuse for someone engaging in the tactics they

do. I am always very concerned when someone starts trying to make excuses

for what is an exploiter (or an abuser). Making excuses for them is not

" enlightenment " , it's merely enabling an exploiter (or abuser). Running

interference for them. And I can assure you that they are plenty adept of

coming up with excuses to try to rationalize and excuse their bad deeds and

even outright criminal behavior.

 

If you or anyone you know are engaging in tactics of distortion (ncluding

spamming) and trying to blame it on bad economic times (or anything else), I

respectably suggest you stop. What goes around comes around, and karma can

be heavy. No amount of thinking pretty thoughts or pretending to

enlightenment will help until the person faces what s/he is doing and

understands why s/he should stop doing it. And I know of no major religion

that condones lying in any form. It really can break down a person's basic

integrity and leave them susceptible to all kinds of negative influences.

 

You might also meditate on the expression " Sins of omission often are judged

more harshly than sins of commission. " It's true. And trying to rationalize

someone's else wrong actions and excuse them does fall under the " sins of

omission " category. Exploitation and abuse never take place without someone

enabling it through neglect.

 

Some people confuse feeling " good " with being " good " . They are not always

the same thing. Sometimes to be " good " , to be really caring, a person must

go against some heavy conditioning and take a stand against some things.

Any fool can tell others how they should feel and they shouldn't mind thus

and so, pat him or herself on the back for being " noble " , and tell

him/herself what a " spiritual " person s/he is. It's the ultimate in selfish

and self-serving behavior.

 

I'm reminded of something that happened when I was younger. My grandfather

was attacked and had his throat cut by a neighbor's son. The young man had

been out of control for years, killing people's pets, threatening to burn

people's house's down if they complained, and threatening to cut other

people's throats each time they complained. My grandfather was

76-years-old. No match for a punk with a butcher knife. This happened a few

weeks after this punk had made a confession of having " found the Lord " . My

grandfather died.

 

He was caught right away. His boss - one of those Christians who confuses

feeling " good " with being " good " - was trying to get him out of jail on bond

and saying that good Christians should forgive him and let him out on bond.

His attempts to release this murderer in the name of " Christianity " and

" love " didn't make me or anyone in my family feel loved or cared about. The

neighbors whom he had threatened for years also did not feel " loved " or

cared about by his professed " Christian " " love " . Quite the opposite.

 

BTW, when the police caught him right after he cut my grandfather's throat,

his excuse was, " A fellow has to eat, and the old man only had $11. " Sound

familiar? Criminals are always claiming poor economic times, the devil made

them do it, etc.

 

And Brian, lying to oneself about one's real motives or those of others,

enabling/ co-dependency can really mess up Qi flow in the body. The

conscious mind may be in denial, but the soul knows the truth.

Wow, thanks for the advice on the hip replacement. I am juicing the greats of

carrot, beet and spinach twice daily and put in 1 tablespoon of flaxseed oil

.. He is also eating plenty of fruit too. I will have to detox him once he

gets off the meds (rat poison, Coumadin) for the blood clots. He is eating

mostly raw with occasional fish, pork or meat but very little. I am also

giving him the Barley Green and plan on giving him dosages of Vitamin C and

Vitamin E to help in his healing process. Garlic is a no-no. Boy, I love

these doctors Imagine medical science is far more advanced than GOD!

 

Oh osteo is the " wear and tear " disease and I can say that is exactly what my

husband did. A tough old Marine!
