-Caveat Lector- DANGEROUS TIMES NEAR ==================== (CNNS, 04/21/99) -- The year 1999 is bound to see upheaval. This, not necessarily due to any perceived Y2K threat, but more due to a pervasive end-times psychology. We live, as they say, in "interesting times." The weather is going to get hotter. Predictions abound on Internet, but common sense will tell you that, yes, the weather is going to get hotter. Flash News: Not all Americans have air conditioning in their homes. That is a hard concept for some Americans to grasp. THEY have air conditioning so, *ipso facto*, all others have air conditioning. This news service originates from a TOWN THAT TIME FORGOT. This editor feels he ought to make local observations before all Hell breaks loose. You may have seen the movie, "Groundhog Day," starring Bill Murray. In that film, Murray enters a sort of time warp, where a Pennsylvania town he's entered does not proceed through normal "time" sequences. Instead, Murray finds himself in a town which does not age; a town seemingly unaffected by the progression of world events. Such a town is Champaign, Illinois. Example: The University library here, through much of the 1990s, had no magnetic detectors to stop any potential thieves from helping themselves to available books. In this heartland community, it was just unthinkable that "bad guys" could make their way hitherward. Remember: this situation was extant through much of the 1990s. If you yourself are not living in your own internal "time," where past and future have ceased to exist, then you can see that Champaign, Illinois lives in a Rod Serling "Twilight Zone" episode, where a John Phillips Sousa band yet plays melodies in the park on Saturday evenings. Example: Normal transportation here is by bicycle. I do mean normal. International readers of Conspiracy Nation, living in high density areas, will struggle to grasp the concept of a small city, in the midst of prairie-land, where unhurried life pokes along, peddling a bicycle in low-gear. These examples (above) are symbolic of the intellectual environment from which originate the speed-of-light, leading-edge transmittals of the Conspiracy Nation News Service (CNNS). But such a poke-along environment is what this editor is up against, not just here but throughout the current USA mass consciousness. Details cited above of the Champaign, Illinois LAND THAT TIME FORGOT probably appear hyperbolic to the typical, current, USA mass consciousness. But they are, by means of extreme context, a wake-up call to you, dear reader. Yes, this low-gear environment is an odd juxtaposition to you, living in your (relatively) "advanced" circumstances. But can you see that you, also, are living in your own somewhat backward land? Can you please, please see that you too live in a somewhat poke-along world, and that world events are about to make a loud KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK on your door? BLOOD HAS BEEN SPILLED. Violence against Yugoslavia serves to protect America *from its own violence*. [1] But violence, left unappeased, "will accumulate until it overflows its confines." [2]. That is why, for the moment, we can thank our lucky stars that the 15 dead Columbine High School bodies have atoned for USA violence against Yugoslavia. Their sacrifice redirects violence into "proper" channels. [3] BLOOD HAS BEEN SPILLED. In "primitive" societies, menstruating women are segregated from the community. Menstruating women *bleed*. Most primitive peoples take the utmost care to avoid contact with blood. Spilt blood of any origin... is considered impure... When men are enjoying peace and security, blood is a rare sight. When violence is unloosed, however, blood appears everywhere. [4] There is unimaginable potency in spilled blood. The Bible only hints at this potency when it states that spilled blood "cries from the ground." Put aside materialist conceptions and understand the vast occult magic unleashed when blood is spilled. WHEN VIOLENCE IS UNLOOSED, BLOOD APPEARS EVERYWHERE. The local Podunk Junction newspaper, the Champaign-Urbana News Gazette, headlines today, "The Search For 'Why.'" It bemoans that there is "no clear answer" to explain the Littleton, Colorado massacre. But there is a very obvious answer: when violence is unloosed, blood appears everywhere. This news service is not optimistic. Yet it dares to beg you, dear reader, to understand that "We've got trouble, right here in River City." All Hell, we fear, is about to break loose. It is going to get HOT. Please, please -- whether you believe in God or not -- say a prayer that the now-insane leaders of the United States will be redeemed from their madness. ---------------------------<< Notes >>--------------------------- [1] *Violence and the Sacred* by Rene Girard.
