The Art of Diversion

At the onset of the computer age an acronym appeared which characterized the intelligence of digital computing—GIGO.  If one feeds the computer unreliable data, it will spew out in kind, garbage in, garbage out.  The acronym is a concept borrowed from engineering, namely, that if your initial postulation is in error, then any conclusions drawn from analysis will also be erroneous.  This is clearly obvious in the fields of astrophysics and theoretical physics.  Just to set the fundamental idea straight, physics is about the material world’s behavior.  First one observes, then measures, and then tests, after which postulations are produced to explain the observed behavior.  Theoretical physicists and mathematicians have reversed the procedure, producing theories before observation of the physical phenomena.  GIGO.

The same process of spewing out irrelevant information is also inherent in engineering.  It is one thing to set up the equations that reflect an observed process.  But if the premise is in error, or is in need of revision, then one must revise the answers exiting the mathematics.  Any third-grader knows if you change certain quantities relevant to others, the ultimate answer changes as well.  Somehow this basic concept gets lost in the ivory towers of our universities.  Fred Hoyle makes some sound arguments in his book, Energy or Extinction, as well as Dr. Albert Bartlett in his classroom analysis/presentation posted on the Internet.  One cannot argue the math.  But one can indeed argue the assumed premise.  The earth is not in short supply of hydrocarbon energy.

Fred, Al, the world is not running out of oil.  Period.  What we have been told in the media until everyone takes it as proven hard fact and is no different than the diamond industry (as well as others that boast there are limited supplies), which is tightly controlled by two major companies in the world.  Why?  Because diamonds are as plentiful as grass.  There are numerous diamond fields around the planet right on the surface, waiting to be exploited.  That’s the way DeBeers and cohorts want it—waiting to be exploited, on their terms.  In so doing the diamond business remains lucrative and perpetual at controlled price levels.  This is exactly the situation with oil, with one exception.  Oil is one of the earth’s renewable energy sources.  We have been fed a pack of lies through the media with a lot of loud braying perpetrated by certain individuals who want to control all the earth’s resources for their own benefit and gratification.

Back when the Alaskan pipeline was being built, there was a lot of exploratory drilling.  It was discovered that the amount of oil available in just ONE location of Prudhoe Bay exceeded all the then known oil fields of Saudi Arabia.  Now if that is startling, perhaps unbelievable, drilling was also carried out on Gull Island, a location on the very edge of the permitted area by government (100 square miles) of Prudhoe Bay, which was measured to contain more oil than all the other wells previously drilled in that region.  I kid you not.  This is what an ARCO executive declared to the chaplain accompanying him shortly after the day the Gull Island well test was carried out.  This is certainly incredulous to those of us who have believed the propaganda.  One wonders how many other oil pools could be discovered along the northern coast of Alaska, which are natural artesian wells with a temperature of 135ยบ and 1200 psi, naturally flowing for twenty years of 24/7 production.  One of the largest oil fields in the world lies off the coast of Greece.  But they, like America's Prudhoe Bay have been prevented from developing it.

Since the early 1970s when these abundant sources were discovered, further exploration has discovered the following:
  • Proved crude oil resources are more than 21 times what was known in the 1950s
  • Natural gas supplies are five times what was known in the 1960s
  • Coal reserves are four times greater than originally estimated in the 1950s, and TWICE the BTU content of known oil and gas reserves.
It has been known for at least fifty years there is an oil field deep under the northern plains which in volume exceeds all other known fields combined in North America.  The drilling technology has yet to be invented to get at it. This was the state of man’s knowledge on these matters ten years ago.  At that time it was discovered there was a possibility that the earth was manufacturing new oil, which has since been confirmed.  Apparently some old oil fields which were once thought depleted are starting to come back to life.  Hmmm.  Do you suppose that Chevron promoted some propaganda originating from certain universities that oil was produced from organic matter and therefore finite?  Any competent scientist having investigated the issue long since concluded that was an error, born of facile speculation.  Just like the diamonds, these control freaks want the world to believe the supply is finite and insufficient, so they may continue their plans for total world control.  The plan has been in place for centuries, people.  This is not a recent event.

So Al, how about revising your video with more up to date data in your calculations?  Or are you also in the employ of the Establishment promoting this form of propaganda?  Fred, you’re dead.  But perhaps with unlimited vision now you are able to realize the truth.

Yes, we are polluting our planet.  We need to clean up our water both oceanic and potable.  We need to invent a method of dealing with the toxic waste of industrialization—if we want to continue as a species.  And even though the entire world’s population could reside in less than 25% of the land area of the United States, we need to realize better control of our reproduction in proportion to our capacity to produce food.  There’s no survival need to exterminate 6 billion people down to 500 million (a 12/1 reduction) as touted on the Georgia Stones.

WMDs in Iraq, al Qaeda behind the terrorism instead of the Establishment manipulating the Israelis and Arabs, Global Warming caused by man-made carbon emissions, the cause and “need” for WWI and WWII, these and many more events are manufactured. The number of casualties of our troops in Iraq are not 4000, but over 73,000! More than what was lost in the entire Viet Nam war conducted over a period of twenty years.  Douglas Reed told the world when the news media was co-opted.  But people still believe what they're told by it because they're too busy pursuing "Happiness" to bother verifying these tabloids.

Our planet has enough and to spare of resources.  What we are not doing is being wise Stewards.  We have let certain groups of individuals set us to destroying ourselves while our attention was focused on “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.” They have an inferiority complex reaching deep into the depths of megalomaniacal control.

About the References

Geide (youstupidrelativists.com), Dr Bartlet (www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-QA2rkpBSY), and Klaus Dona (www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmMwo1Xzgus) are the easiest to check out.  Geide's chapters on population take about 30 minutes altogether.  Al and Klaus will each require about an hour.

Fred Hoyle's books are short and can be read in about 2-3 hrs each if you read in excess of 300wpm.  I found them on the city's public library consortium and posted a request.

A must read is The Cycle of Cosmic Catastrophes and Civilization One.  The first is one of the best scientific treatments of geology in publication.  The second is just about as good.  Both render a fairly solid foundation for the argument we--the current specie of man--lived during and before the last ice age, and that during that period man attained a fairly complex civilization.


The others have useful information, but a lot more gleaning is necessary.  There is a lot of speculation instead of real science in the other books, but enough data to get one thinking.  And that is the most important part.  I am not interested in speculation, sensationalism, or Chicken Little apocalypticism.  Nor am I interested in green or gray aliens involved in man's past, simply for the reasons outlined in Space Travel (Bova & Lewis).  The only way we can grasp how BIG our galaxy is, is with mathematics.  Just as surely as Bartlett's simple equations show we are in deep trouble, simple equations also show that space travel by any method of applied physics we can come up with precludes celestial Visitors.

Stewardship

Bill Geide leads one to believe that our species is doomed to extinction—if we continue inverting the food pyramid.  From what I gather of man’s history, extinction is not our problem.  Our species has managed to adapt and survive for a million plus years, if Cremo & Thompson are to be believed.  But if we don’t make a concerted effort now we will damage the ecology for generations, no matter who survives.

Our biggest problem isn’t food, it’s water.  Not only are we short of clean water, so are the ocean’s inhabitants.  And that’s in part our doing.  If there is any field of research man needs to expend resources of talent and money, it’s in producing potable water and removing our pollutants.  On this part, I believe Dr. Barlett has us pegged at critical mass.  Hardly a month passes but what we don’t hear of water related problems somewhere in the world, and they’re always in heavily populated areas.  Worldwide disease, famine, pestilence, and insurrection are on the horizon.  We don’t need to worry about the Establishment’s objectives as written on the Georgia Stones.  They sound reasonable, like all Utopias, but the question is how they are achieved.

The world has been progressing toward a universal language since the Industrial Revolution.  We don’t need to do anything about that.  Anyone who is experienced in foreign languages can recognize the trend.  Nor do we need to focus on the other objectives listed on the Stones.  What we do need is to achieve a consciousness that is universal in all countries, one that emphasizes personal responsibility AND accountability.  I’m not suggesting a penalizing system for accountability.  It is rather one of people beginning to care about how their actions, and to some extent attitudes, affect their neighbor.

If you don’t care about putting your garbage in the nearest refuse disposal can, you’re not likely to care about other less visible forms of pollution, like the volume of psychotropic drugs going into our sewer systems which are not set up to trap them.  Or any other number of scenarios, down to being conscientious enough to walk twenty steps at the public library to throw away your own trash.  Or cigarette butt.  Some of the local high school students can’t do this, even though there are receptacles every thirty feet from the library to the school entrance across the street.

I was raised to pick up after myself.  When I got old enough to read adult level books, I discovered many of the senior generation believed your worth as a human being was next to zero if you didn’t clean up after your own shit.  When I entered Basic Training, I discovered there were a lot of young men who were not taught by their parents to do exactly that.  Uncle Sam’s Brother had to teach them.

The raising of consciousness is not just about being more aware of your place in the world, local or at large.  It begins first with acquiring the Habit of Stewardship.  For the specie of Man to make it past THIS hump in the learning curve, it must adopt this habit.  The Rule of Law will not achieve the metamorphosis awaiting us.  We simply have to extinguish the slavery mentality from among us.  This is reflected in the attitude that only government can fix what ails humanity.  Today (Nov 2) we go to the polls—those of us who still understand that voting counts no matter who wins—and presumably set some of us to represent the rest of us in public matters.  What most people have forgotten is that these representatives are not there to fix our problems.  They are not there to make Laws.  They are there to ensure that the will of accountable people is carried out where there is a conflict between a majority and a minority.  They are there to ensure a balance between the two, and nothing more.  They are there with the primary duty of ensuring the Bill of Rights is not violated during the legislative process.  That is why they are sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States before anything else.

The Experiment in “Self Government” was never about if Democracy would work—or any other form of government for that matter.  It was an experiment to see if people could learn to govern themselves in all their affairs WITHOUT resorting to legalized plunder and coercion.  Jefferson and associates were not interested in public, socialized education for the sake of having an educated populace.  They hoped that in teaching the people about their history and duty toward a Limited Republic, the people would recognize self-government was exactly that—governing their own passions of greed, lust, envy, and rapacity against their neighbor.  It’s no wonder the rising generation has difficulty with accountability.  Around the world in the news we regularly hear: “We don’t know how this oversight happened, but we are looking into it.”  It happens because somebody did not care how their actions affected others.

To summarize, if we don’t start caring about how our individual actions influence and impact the well being of others (no matter where they are on the planet), civilization as we know it, and thousands of years of hard-won progression will be lost.  All Golden Ages of the past were a direct result of people raising the bar of sociality, not technology.  Technology, while improving the standard of living and life expectancy, did not, and will not, save humanity from destruction.

To date, no religion has been able to foster these concepts of “good will toward men”.  Instead it has been the source of most war and destruction since the last Ice Age.  Spirituality was never dependent upon religion, as is clearly codified in the basic tenets of all the world’s religions.  Yet people would rather continue fighting over who is right, and who is in control of the rest by it, than live those basic principles.  Doing away with religion does not diminish spirituality, but in my estimation having been on both sides, religion impedes spirituality and concern for others.  Take any religion on the planet and discern whether or not it has utilized coercion, intimidation, and fear as tools to achieve its supremacy.  Religion is about control over other people, the same as the objectives of the Establishment—in the name of doing so for their own good.

The shift in consciousness so many people are looking for in 2012, can only start with Stewardship.  This is our home.  It is OUR planet.  It is where we began, and to where we will return should we finally break loose from its gravity well. If we don’t individually become stewards of our home, it will cease to be our cradle and become our grave.

Do your research.  Find out how to be a steward.  Implement them and discover the rewards that comes from it.  It is the first step in passing it forward.
