Harvey, how do you feel about being "misunderstood"? Does it bug you? Are you frustrated? Do you wish others had more sense to hear what you have to say?

I have no real wish to become someone famous, where their word or belief means something, etc. When I searched for ‘truth’ it does not matter to me, the ‘I’ – in that I tried to search for truth impersonally. I acknowledge there is a certain ’structure’ that’s in place – which everyone acknowledges, mostly unconsciously, and few consciously. Yet at the same time, that structure needs to be overhauled, so that truth is truth, and honesty is honesty, and sincerity, sincerity, etc. I do seek to unify things, to understand – that is what I hope if my ‘mission’ here so to speak, my purpose here. At times my life is bearable and at others, unbearable. Some may feel the beliefs that I align myself to are wacko, or are very strange and obscure – that of the Billy Meier story -> Talmud Jmmanuel, ancient civilisations of advanced technology, and ETs. They are no more wacko than that of Christianity and the Bible, the Jesus story and Christian tenets. Except there’s physical proof of those I believe in, and colloborative stories that are supportive, in our modern times. I am going through my videotapes at the moment, I tape stuff of 60 minutes, 20/20, the news, and documentary style programs, etc. There’s the story of an American boy who’s fascinated by Corsairs, and know about their tyres blowing out often. He has a memory of being a fighter pilot flying Corsairs. Reincarnation has more going for it, than anything else. The discussions at www.figu.org say that turn around times for reincarnation are on average around 150 years – to be mentally OK. If you come back too soon, it isn’t altogether too healthy for you – because memories of the past life, may still linger. In the next 6-12 months I hope that my life starts getting itself together?

I firmly believe that one truth, supports another, and another, and so on, giving that structural framework of knowledge that does unify everything. Everyone is equal in the sense, that being human means you’re equal to everyone else, needing the same bare minimum in air, food, clothing, shelter, etc. You should know that there is an unfair distribution of such things in this world. Clearly there is enough to go around, but it means that people cannot live in luxury, those that do . This is of course common sense. Instead of the whole wide world, picture a classroom, and there’s enough food to feed the class, if one person hoards food, or eats to excess, that’ll leave someone unfed, likewise with other necessities. This is a fundamental truth. If you were living in just a classroom, you would want to clean up your own mess – the same applies to the world. In the past it was neglible, what man did to the planet, but that is not possible anymore, as we see the effects of neglect for so long. Applying the same simple logic to other problems, highlight what is needed. A clear rethink about how to handle the solution. Also such simple logic applied to the world’s mysteries, would shine a light of understanding in them. The life after death question. Whether god exists? Whether this or that religion is a lie or a truth? I surmise that christianity is all a big lie, because there is no validity to any of christianity’s claims. While there is some evidence about the person that came to be known as Jesus, it is quite a different story (to Christianity’s), that may be the true story. www.tjresearch.info >> The unifying truth is that all men are equal, and mankind >> faces the same problems, as always – getting along with one another. >Tilt. >How does ""the rest of the world is wacko""" fit in "all equal? >If all are wacko then so would you be, to make it "all are equal". >If the problem you see is that men can not get along, how does affirming >that everyone else -the rest of the world- is wacko contributing to mking >all men get along??
It is the status quo view of the world that is wacko, to fails to explain everything clearly. There are all sorts of political motives behind this or that teaching. You know that science was a late starter due to the hold of christianity. Early scientists knew their ideas was too radical for christianity, and a few noted scientists held off publishing their ideas, until very late in life, when it didn’t matter anymore what the church did to them.

I did not see it as discourteous, but maybe rather as disconnected. As for "answering every point and question of mine", *that* is not discourteous. It is rude, belittling, arrogant.

Sorry if I appeared discourteous in not answering every point and question of yours. There is truth, and then there is ‘truth’. Which is so complicated that it would take a very very very long post/reply/etc to get on the same wavelength, as to what truth is and is about. There would be such a thing as absolute truth – which I don’t think this world knows about, but is only glimpsed at, here and there. Everyone wants to own something or take credit for it, such as to gain something from ‘it’. You know the story about history, that different people write history differently, and often the most accurate is that from an impartial source. American history is better written by an Englishman for instance, and likewise for English history. Absolute truth would harmonise all the mysteries and knock down all the myths (and most religions) in this world. I do collect information, such as a videotape library of this or that item, that was broadcast at some time. It’s not complete or that extensive, due to lack of funds, etc. Some people may think I latch onto ‘waco’ ideas as such, but I’ve been this way for the greater part of my life — taking interest in ‘mysteries’ that can be explained. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->Just pasting this here again, as it was left unanswered, and gives me an >impression of "lack of dialogue" and lack of communication.

UFOs and ETs are part of the answer, as it helps to fill in on our history, and the history of the earth. And to ponder about them, helps us focus upon ourselves, how this planet is backward despite it’s scientific and advances in knowledge, etc. And they are part of the truth. They shed light on our religions, since they are often mistaken for ‘god’ in ancient times. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->>> and to simply >>>> be made into a cog into society etc is a cop out. >>>> Real imagination and inventiveness demands that you >>>> don’t be that way at all. >>>> And the world does need straightening out, particularly >>>> the USA.

War is stupid, and nothing is settled with ‘war’. We’ve had enough wars on this planet, in which the common thread of it, is all too apparent. It is all about ‘politics’ ie. ‘power’. At it’s simplest level, it was all about ‘land’ and control over it. > > We’ve just had our Anzac observation here, >the 90th year > celebration of the failed Gallipoli landings in Turkey in >> the first World War, in which a lot of men lost their >> lives with an ill planned and ill conceived beach landing >> plan. >> The real story is not really about the bungling British >> High Command of the time, but how innocent men had to do >> their ‘duty’ and die.

I assume your solution would be to beam radio messages across the Middle East urging terrorists to take up social volleyball instead?

The Enlightened Individual versus the Benighted Masses. It’s a common theme, esp. in Romantic literature (Blake, Byron). In the 20th century and particularly post C20 experience with various "enlightened leaders" cum part-time mass-murderers, it tends to be treated a bit more critically or ambivalently (Salinger, Hesse). I’m with Larkin in concluding that the most we can aspire to is the state of being (a little) "less deceived". It begins with the important discovery that Feeling Uniquely Enlightened is a fairly commonplace and easily reproducible mental state, accessible to most everyone via the simple expedient of downing a few pints of good liquor in an out-of-the-way bar. "Feeling oneself to be so" and "being so" turn out, unfortunately, to be two entirely different animals. For a claim to Unusual Enlightenment to have any credibility outside the subculture of goggle-eyed wacky sects that Harvey likes to frequent, one really has no option but to "come on down" from the mists of Olympus and trundle one’s wares out into the marketplace of ideas, peer-reviewing an’ all. In Harvey’s case, since all his ideas are second-hand and most are remarkably silly, such an experience could well prove discomfiting. Hence the latest signs of defensive retreat into crypto-solipsism. This is not healthy. I prescribe a dusky brunette with huge tits. ("It Worked For Me")

Sadly the world doesn’t follow common sense. The status quo gets stuck into a madness unto itself.

The truth about war, is to realise the truth about war. We’ve just had our Anzac observation here, the 90th year celebration of the failed Gallipoli landings in Turkey in the first World War, in which a lot of men lost their lives with an ill planned and ill conceived beach landing plan. The real story is not really about the bungling British High Command of the time, but how innocent men had to do their ‘duty’ and die. The Turks lost far more men and this is duly noted. The politics was all screwed up as well. Harvey – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->> Harvey >–

Just pasting this here again, as it was left unanswered, and gives me an impression of "lack of dialogue" and lack of communication. Feels like a monologue played at the occasion of a reply. It also sort of needs answered before I can get to your words in ths post, that start with more of the same affirmation, without any dialogue having been established the forst time around to set the basis of a communication. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -> We have to call our governments into order, to look after > this planet better than they are, under corporations > and governments. >> > And I’ve come to straighten that out, or >>try to. > >>> Retrospectively 1986–>1989 has been the peak >>> period in which I did do something at that time, >>> making my mark here, perhaps things won’t kick >>> off for me again, until next year? >>> In which my true purpose here will be revealed. >>> That magic number in one’s life, in which one >>> feels one’s true purpose is realised. >>> Sorry that I’m sounding rather obscure here, >>> but obscurity was my trademark for a while, >>> a long time ago. >>How could obscurity be enlightment…? > The greatest truths are obscure –
That actually is not the common sense. The common sense has it that truth is enlighting, not obscure. > the truth is obscure,
Again, I never ever found so, and my experience is that most poeple find truth clear and clarifying. >>> We are all here to be ‘ourselves’ >>Hopw is that compatible with only you being right and the rest of the >>world being wrong and blind and so on…? >>Is it that we all can be ourself so long as we think the same way…??? >>Sounds incompatible to me, that…. > I think we align ourselves to certain ideas/truths/thinking/etc. > Robert Wise made the ‘The Day the Earth Stool Still’ because he > loved the script, and it went along with his ideas about UFOs, etc.

I repeated that here as the question was not about UFOs nor authors. It was about your words and how they were at times seemingly contradicting themself: on one hand you said we all were here to *be ourself*. On the other you say that the entire world (the total of selves in the world) were all wrong to think as they were, which presupposes they all would be wrong to differ from you. How then is that judgement of value fitting the allowing for everyone to be here to just be *themself*, and not *yourself*? – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->> and to simply >>> be made into a cog into society etc is a cop out. >>> Real imagination and inventiveness demands that you >>> don’t be that way at all. >>> And the world does need straightening out, particularly >>> the USA.

That sounds like a totology to me. Whatever the truth about war woudl be, it would remain th truth bout war, that some realize it or that no one ever does. You talk about war, and about a unifying truth. I say there is no *unifying* truth about war. Meaning here: "Where is the unifyign truth you say this belief of yours is all about?". Back to question one, which was left unanswered. > We’ve just had our Anzac observation here, the 90th year > celebration of the failed Gallipoli landings in Turkey in > the first World War, in which a lot of men lost their > lives with an ill planned and ill conceived beach landing > plan. > The real story is not really about the bungling British > High Command of the time, but how innocent men had to do > their ‘duty’ and die.
