Are You More Than Organic Fertilizer ?

You must make choices. Your mistakes are as important as correct choices. You learn from both. Be prepared to forgive yourself for errors. No matter your age, you cannot be old enough to be perfect.

God will learn from you about both your good choices and your bad choices.

The one who enslaves others makes a free will decision. The one whom is enslaved also makes a free will decision. The enslaved can make slavery so much work that it becomes too expensive to continue. The pretense of incompetence becomes too prohibitively expensive for it to continue. The willful destruction of property add to the expense. Ultimately the ability to refuse to live, which is still more destruction of valuable property, becomes cost prohibitive.

Think about the long Roman military campaign to conquer ancient Masada, in about A. D. 70–73. The Roman soldiers arrived on top of the massif at dawn. They expected a battle. They expected to gain some valuable slaves. What they found waiting for them had a value far, far less than that of slaves. It had cost a lot to achieve the heights.

Everyone was dead. A dead slave is useless except as a few pounds of organic fertilizer. Organic fertilizer is easy and cheap to gather at stables. It can be gathered without so much time, effort and expenditure of money. It costs very little compared to feeding, equipping, paying, and training an army for several years.

All life on Earth is a short term condition. We are as paper tissues, disposable, according to God’s will. Our bodies are only a soul containing husk. We dangle on a strand of His web. What we learn, sense, and experience is eternal. That is returned to God at our death.

It adds to the sum of His knowledge. Our opportunity is to bring to God, new knowledge. Endlessly repeating the same learnings and experiences does not add to God's knowledge. Our unique task is to bring Him new knowledge.

He recently published a book on religion which lashes out at nearly all of the comfortable ideas about God, the trappings of organized religion, the layers of money sucking priesthood, and their departures from the fundamental ideas and messages of Religion. His pithy comments and suggestions for a return to a God-centered personal religion will outrage everyone. www.OhGodIsThatYou.com
