truth_seeker, I heard this poem yesterday and I thought of you and that you might appreciate it in your search for the truth... It actually was written to address slavery but we are all slaves to the lies of the "New World Order"... The Present Crisis [Written in 1844, this poem provided inspiration for the leaders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. When deciding on a name for their new publication in 1910 they agreed that the name of their magazine should be The Crisis.] WHEN a deed is done for Freedom, through the broad earth's aching breast Runs a thrill of joy prophetic, trembling on from east to west, And the slave, where'er he cowers, feels the soul within him climb To the awful verge of manhood, as the energy sublime Of a century bursts full-blossomed on the thorny stem of Time. Through the walls of hut and palace shoots the instantaneous throe, When the travail of the Ages wrings earth's systems to and fro; At the birth of each new Era, with a recognizing start, Nation wildly looks at a nation, standing with mute lips apart, And glad Truth's yet mightier man-child leaps beneath the Future's heart. So the Evil's triumph sendeth, with a terror and a chill, Under continent to continent, the sense of coming ill, And the slave, where'er he cowers, feels his sympathies with God In hot tear-drops ebbing earthward, to be drunk up by the sod, Till a corpse crawls round unburied, delving in the nobler clod. For mankind are one in sprit, and an instinct bears along, Round the earth's electric circle, the swift flash of right or wrong; Whether conscious or unconscious, yet Humanity's vast frame Through its ocean-sundered fibres feels the gush of joy or shame;- In the gain or loss of one race all the rest have equal claim. Once to every man and nation comes the moment to decide, In the strife of Truth with Falsehood, for the good or evil side; Some great cause, God's new Messiah, offering each the bloom or blight, Parts the goats upon the left hand, and the sheep upon the right, And the choice goes by forever 'twixt that darkness and that light. Hast thou chosen, O my people, on whose party thou shalt stand, Ere the Doom from its worn sandals shakes the dust against our land? Though the cause of Evil prosper, yet 't is Truth alone is strong, And, albeit she wander outcast now, I see around her throng Troops of beautiful, tall angels, to enshield her from all wrong. Backward look across the ages and the beacon-moments see, That, like peaks of some sunk continent, jut through Oblivion's sea; Not an ear in court or market for the low foreboding cry Of those Crises, God's stern winnowers, from whose feet earth's chaff must fly; Never shows the choice momentous till the judgement hath passed by. Careless seems the great Avenger; history's pages but record One death-grapple in the darkness 'twixt old systems and the Word; Truth forever on the scaffold, Wrong forever on the throne,- Yet that scaffold sways the future, and, behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above his own. We see dimly in the Present what is small and what is great, Slow of faith how weak an arm may turn this iron helm of fate, But the soul is still oracular; amid the market's din, List the ominous stern whisper from the Delphic cave within,- "They enslave their children's children who make compromise with sin."

Slavery, the earth-born Cyclops, fellest of the giant brood, Sons of brutish Force and Darkness, who have drenched the earth with blood, Famished in his self-made desert, blinded by our purer day, Gropes in yet unblasted regions for his miserable prey;- Shall we guide his gory fingers where our helpless children play? Then to side with Truth is noble when we share her wretched crust, Ere her cause bring fame and profit, and 't is prosperous to be just; Then it is the brave man chooses, while the coward stands aside, Doubting in his abject sprit, till his Lord is crucified, And the multitude make virtue of the faith they had denied. Count me o'er the earth's chosen heroes,- they were souls that stood alone, While the men they agonized for hurled the contumelious stone, Stood serene, and down the future saw the golden beam incline To the side of perfect justice, mastered by their faith divine, By one man's plain truth to manhood and to God's supreme design. By the light of burning heretics Christ's bleeding feet I track, Toiling up new Calvaries ever with the cross that turns not back, And these mounts of anguish number how each generation learned One new word of that grand Credo which in prophet-hearts hath burned Since the first man stood God-conquered with his face to heaven upturned. For Humanity sweeps onward: where today the martyr stands, On the morrow, crouches Judas with the silver in his hands; Far in front the cross stands ready and the crackling fagets burn, While the hooting mob of yesterday in silent awe return To glean up the scattered ashes into History's golden urn. 'Tis as easy to be heroes as to sit the idle slaves Of a legendary virtue carved upon our father's graves, Worshippers of light ancestral make the present light a crime;- Was the Mayflower launched by cowards, steered by men behind their time? Turn those tracks toward Past or Future, that make Plymouth Rock sublime? They were men of present valor, stalwart old iconoclasts, Unconvinced by axe or gibbet that all virtue was the Past's; But we make their truth our falsehood, thinking that hath made us free, Hoarding it in mouldy parchments, while our tender spirits flee The rude grasp of that great Impulse which drove them across the sea. They have rights who dare maintain them; we are traitors to our sires, Smothering in their holy ashes Freedom's new-lit altar-fires; Shall we make their creed our jailer? Shall we, in our haste to slay, From the tombs of the old prophets steal the funeral lamps away To light up the martry-fagets round the prophet of today? New occasions teach new duties; Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still, and onward, who would keep abreast of Truth; Lo, before us gleam her campfires? We ourselves must Pilgrims be, Launch our Mayflower, and steer boldly through the desperate winter sea, Nor attempt the Future's portal with the Past's blood-rusted key. James Russell Lowell | ||

Warning! The above video turns quite Judeo/Christian half way through...for those of you who care... Makes me want to rethink a few things... I think the TT are right on the money about a One World Government and One World Religion. I always felt this to be true prophesy but tried to see it "outside of scriptures" as I have been trying my hardest to cast off my failed faith... Or was it that in my weakness and self serving I failed my faith...  | ||

This song is for all of us...including the TT!!! Change Tracy Chapman If you knew that you would die today, If you saw the face of God and Love, Would you change? Would you change? If you knew that love can break your heart, If you're down so low you cannot fall, Would you change? Would you change? How bad, how good does it need to get? How many losses, how much regret? What chain reaction would cause an effect? Makes you turn around, makes you try to explain, Makes you forgive and forget, makes you change? If you knew that you would be alone, Knowing right and being wrong, Would you change? Would you change? If you knew that you had found a truth, That brings up pain that can't be soothed, Would you change? Would you change? How bad, how good does it need to get? How many losses, how much regret? What chain reaction would cause an effect? Makes you turn around, makes you try to explain, Makes you forgive and forget, makes you change? Are you so upright you can't be bent? If it comes to blows are you sure you won't be crawling? If it's not for the good, why risk falling? If everything you think you know, Makes your life unbearable, Would you change? Would you change? If you've broken every rule and vow And hard times come to bring you down, Would you change? Would you change? If you knew that you would die today, If you saw the face of God and Love, Would you change? Would you change? | ||

FOAK! That link to Yo is AWESOME!!! Thanks! I spent about 8 hours all over that thing yesterday! Its not only entertaining but educational! but you need a good computer and a fast connection to watch all the clips. Im thankful to have that! A little trick Ive been doing is when I find something or someone Im interested in, I go to U-Tube and search the subject or name and come up with all kinds of clips. I researched Dr. Richard Alpert/Ram Dass and found some great clips! Here he addresses the subject of suffering. I believe its better then old Ben Franklins quote! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaR7j-ZlmYk I like the stuff here also... http://www.yoism.org/?q=node/219 | ||

i have that problem sometimes. i have been considering joining the masons. the problem is that they fit the general description of the antichrist. they are the org. that will produce the world leader that christians talk about. The Manitoba Legislature Building is patterned after an initiatory temple. In such a case certain characteristics must necessarily be present. The Legislature Building has all the required ingredients - without a doubt. It begins with the Sacred Geometry of the overall design - the Golden Ratio of the Pythagoreans, incorporated prominently in temples and churches for thousands of years. Into the lobby of the building one is confronted by protective beasts or temple guardians (apotropaic icons) in form of sacred bulls, lion-heads, bukrania, Medusa and Athena. A “Room of Protection,” says Albo, an integral component of ancient temples. The room is a perfect square, 66.6 feet on each side, alluding to the number 666. Albo’s explanation of this - perhaps surprising to the average reader - has to do with the reverence of occultists for the works of the legendary hermetic alchemist, Cornelius Agrippa. The Hermetic Code A Virtual tour just so you know naba posting long links is what messes up the page the way it is. using code lets you list the link with any title you want. it goes like this. <a href="the link goes here">what you want people to see goes here</a> give it a try.

His site is huge and it also is a large conspiracy/spiritual book store! Can you sum it all up for us and then tell us what you think should be done or can be done about it if anything? Respectfully and sincerely...Nabash... |
