I wouldn't interfere with the functions of this list even if I had the power to do so, but I do find that a lot of time is taken talking about 'who said what' when I really think that is irrevelant. What is important is whether the idea put forward is plausible, workable, necessary, and therefore worthy of pursuit. I don't think we all have to be schooled in the nuances of what Maj Douglas really said or had in mind, neither are we hooked by the term Social Credit unless it describes something logical and understandable which can be implemented. In the same way, I am an ardent Christian, but I don't put forward ideas because 'Jesus said it.' I put forward ideas because they seem to me to be universally true. I suppose what I am looking for is for some one who will say "I have given this a lot of thought, and this is what I have come up with.' That would be refreshing. I believe that all the understanding necessay for that to be done has already been aired on the list since I joined it not so long ago, so where does the learning end and the action begin? Someone ended a post to the list with the wirds 'Keep it simple.' I believe this is what we need, because people survived quite well in cultures before the complicated government and finacial systems evolved under able hands of empire-builders and global traders. Much of that simplicity I see buried deep in (under) the learning revealed here. Can we have it brought out in its simplest forms? I fear that someone oneday will ask me to sit down and be quiet, but until that happens, I will have to 'prophesy' what I have to 'prophesy.'
