RE: RE: RE: RE: [Vo]:Colin Powell and Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan
The whole cynicism of the right, the talk about Barney Franks, Senator Chris Dodds, Clinton, the Communities Reinvestment Act, even far back as Kennedy and FDR is just a smoke screen... The idea that it is false love and just cynical left-wingers buying votes is laughable. When you have a country taken by force by one race of people, who then systematically ethnically cleanse it of its original inhabitants, ship in a whole group of people to use like cattle, when they find that the original inhabitants died out from the strains of disease they brought to this new 'discovered' land, systematically segregate and disadvantage those who are not its race and then have the gall to say that these people are lazy and a burden when the system just isn't inclusive or nurturing of their talents, it is a small measure when some wealth gets redistributed to let them have a piece of the pie and own their own properties. The collapse seems to have been deliberately engineered by the people (the speculators, those in the market) who didn't want it to work, didn't want a more fair society and wanted to keep the old order. They are doing well from all the welfare we the tax payer now pay them. Deep down it is driven by the old Anglo Saxon desire for dominion but the world is a different place, the 'wogs' have knowledge now, China, India, Brazil the power of the Muslim nations. The European dominion is but a blip in recent history and you find the world is going back to equilibrium. All races are equal, all have something to offer. Putting in a man from the ethnic minorities sends out a powerful message from the US: please forgive us before we all go mad. -Original Message- From: Remi Cornwall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 November 2008 11:43 To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: [Vo]:Colin Powell and Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan Just taking a shot of their front page today: http://www.capmag.com/index.asp?page=2 This is the Objectivists (extreme rightwing) rag mag.

OK, Jeff, but there was a time in Catholic-dominated Europe when it was dangerous to be a Jew. In the '30s anti-semitism was preached from pulpits in Poland and the Vatican said prayers for the "perfidious Jews". It took decades before Pope John Paul offered formal aplology. Islam was once the resivoir of learning during the Dark Ages in Europe, as was Celtic Ireland. And it was a fleet of ships from China that ignited the Renaissance in Europe in 1434.

The one thing in which most of these good people were agreed was the one thing in which I differed from them. They were quite sure they had attained a certain "gnosis,"–had, more or less successfully, solved the problem of existence; while I was quite sure I had not, and had a pretty strong conviction that the problem was insoluble. So I took thought, and invented what I conceived to be the appropriate title of "agnostic."

Oh I see is that's what their up to now... Oh they're going to say Obama is the anti-Christ. I remember this with Bill Clinton and Gorbachev and anyone smart enough to stand up to them. I've heard all kinds of bullshit, that the Annunarki are due in 2012 (some planet they live on is meant to come back to the solar system), that the London 2012 Olympic symbol secretly says "Zion" and that's why they were so loathed to change it - the power of that lobby. Ignorance and bigotry is a really powerful force. We must quell the urge to crush bugs and regard outsiders as suspicious. Superstition and this basic reflex seem to be some deed evolutionary mechanism and when you see it for what it is... well nothing to fear but the fear itself. -Original Message- From: OrionWorks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 03 November 2008 22:46 To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: Re: RE: RE: [Vo]:Colin Powell and Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan Jeff Fink Said: ... > You may wonder how good of a Christian I am?

Re: RE: RE: [Vo]:Colin Powell and Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan
One can quote religious texts for any agenda. There are passagees in the New Testament attributed to Jesus which are divisive as well. The question is who wrote them, and why? With militant Islam, you see it filtered through a honor-based desert culture. The largest Islamic culture is in Indonesia, which is not militant. All organized religions have bloody histories. Yet the Golden Rule is found everywhere, in all cultures.
