| Is
an 8% profit too much and therefore should be taxed as
"windfall profits" as per Obama, Pelosi, et al?
Should we limit profits, steal
them from the shareholders and redistribute them to those
who expect the government to do for them what they refuse
to try to do for themselves? |
| Before
you vote this fall, think about how much the current
congress, with a Democratic majority under the leadership
of Nancy Pelosi,
has accomplished. |

Some
thoughts from "The World According to David
Whitehouse" (a blog on Tripod) ........
Life is evolution from innate potential to the greatest degree of understanding and ability; the purpose of life is to survive, experience, learn...advance to the highest level of competency and understanding possible.
The greatest threat to "The American Dream" is altruism. Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for yourself. The key precept of American democracy is INDIVDUALISM. The primary purpose of government is to protect individual rights and provide for the common defense.
UFOs, ghosts, ESP, etc. are natural phenomena and should not be given supernatural attributes.
Religion was the first philosophy; it is based on myths emerging out of ignorance--convenient explanations for things beyond comprehension.Man created gods in his own image. If there is a god, and the god is a "being" with gender, then logically, based on our knowledge of evolution and biophysics, God is a woman (BUT WHY WOULD A SUPREME BEING NEED GENDER?). Actually
we have outgrown our need for a supernatural
"father". All religions are a form of altruism
(as is Communism, etc.) -- Man can not subordinate
himself to a supernatural being or to a government or any
other entity if he is to properly participate his
"evolutionary" process--he must protect his ego
to realize his full potential as a rational, creative
human being and protect the right of all individuals to
pursue happiness in their own way.

This
is a work in progress - during the next few weeks I'll be
reformatting my pages and presenting more of my thoughts
on the world and the human adventure. Hopefully there
will be more than just a venting of my concerns,
frustrations and summing up of my experiences--hopefully
there will be some informational bits, food for thought
and entertainment value for a wide range of web surfers. I'll be updating at least weekly, so if something interests you, please come back for more and do so often. This is part of the Treasures
and Trash-South
project which will be featuring a guide to both special
and not-so-special web sites, books, music, ideas and
shopping. The "Law of Attraction" is a spiritual law that states that what a person thinks about and focuses on both consciously AND subconsciously, they will attract into their life from the power of the "Universe" (and/or God or the Divine). ================================================= The Score Card on Obama vs McCain --- Why to vote or not vote for each of them. Look for my
Politics reformat and update about August 25, 2008 And more Paranormal true
experiences coming to my Paranormal page in August! God is defined as
omnipotent, omniscient,omnipresent,eternal,the alpha and
the omega. What is the Cosmos? The Comos contains all
energy, includes all knowledge because it is everything,
it is everywhere because it is "the
everywhere", it has been shown by one mathematician
to be eternal and it appears we are on the verge of
proving it has no beginning nor any end because, like a möbius strip, the beginning and
the end are one and the same. I submit to you then, God =
The Cosmos; And I ask, why is there a need to personify
this "god" and create a being in our image to
account for what we don't understand and raise a false
hope of an afterlife? |
