The Will To Power: A Biological Imperative. Running from Safety. - 05-14-2007, 11:24 PM

Is This The Beef?
There are a half dozen axiomatic subjects that are at the locus, sometimes in combination, regarding what issues are most related to domestic and international disagreement, argument, misunderstanding, violence and war.
Truly Yours calls them 'The Big Sicks.
The Horrible Half Dozen':

Money.
Sex.
Religion.
Race.
Weapons.
The desire for, pursuit of and acquirement of social recognition, attention; love (Including the 'Will To Power' - Nietzche.

Yes. This is really basic stuff. Whereas, what makes it particularly noteworthy is the popular denial of all of the above:

1. "I am not hung up about Money."
2. Sex.
3. Religion
4. Race
5. *Weapons
(*Physical power of whatever manifestation. Re: F.Nietzche's 'Will To Power'.)
6. I am not in pursuit of - don't wish for - the acquirement of social recognition, attention and love.

There is no 'They'.
If there is a they, they aren't doing it.
If they are doing it, they aren't doing it on purpose.
If they're doing it on purpose, they're only doing it for the money.
If They're doing it for the money, there's nothing you can do about it.
Nobody cares.
People don't want to know the truth.
And one more thing: I am not into denial.

Resolution: No real problem or assemblage of problems can be alleviated when surrounded by a policy of diminished importance or abject denial. Re: 'Gridlock'.


(George Berkeley, 1710) ... lay the beginning in a distinct explication of what is meant by thing, reality, existence: for in vain shall we dispute concerning the real existence of things, or pretend to any knowledge thereof, so long as we have not fixed the meaning of those words.

"All things come out of the one and the one out of all things." - Heraclitus
"Reality is an illusion - albeit a persistent one." - Einstein
"Particles give me a headache." - Ibid

As they say in group therapy,denial is not a river in Egypt? The cry of today is "He/she,
made me do it",or like "the men in black" "they" made me do it.

We need to take responsibility for our own actions,and stop making excuses.



regards michael.


Humilty,coupled with boldness,surprises truth to
reveal herself?
