"At least 72,000 years ago and perhaps much
earlier, modern humans had an understanding of how fire and heat could
transform the materials around them to suit their needs." - Kyle
Brown
"Modern society is based on the technologies
of fire.
Fire powers our automobiles and airplanes at supra-biological
speeds; fire enables us to smelt metal
and etch silicon; fire powers our communication systems and electrical grid;
fire allows us to distill or
synthesize chemicals that do not exist in nature; fire powers the quarrying
of limestone and the crushing of
rock to build roads and skyscrapers.
The wholesale disruption of
nature and reengineering of the physical landscape would be impossible without
fire-based technology.
From the building of superhighways and dams to
the clearcutting of forests, nearly
all large-scale domination of
nature depends on fire
technologies such as the internal combustion engine and the coal - or oil -
fired turbine.
As soon as fire-based technology gains
ascendency, such projects as clearcutting become not
just technologically feasible but conceivable, as the
Epic of Gilgamesh testifies
to as far back as the time of ancient Sumer.
Water is
the nemesis of control.
Seeking out the tiniest crack, nothing can
hold it in.
As waves in the ocean, it destroys any bulwark.
Whereas fire burns clean and
purifies what it touches,
water makes a mess.
Hence the key to preserving anything - houses,
books, food, clothes, metal - is to keep it dry.
Water, with its cycles and flows,
its unruliness and its ubiquity on earth, could be called
the essence of nature.
To keep everything dry, and therefore
outside the cycle of decay,
transformation, and
renewal, is a concrete
expression of our separation from nature.
Our dependence on water - the
fact that we are made mostly of water - denies
the primary conceit of
civilization, that we are separation from
nature or even nature's master.
No more nature's master are we,
than we are the master of water!" -
Charles Eisenstein
"Water is an individual, an animal, and is alive, remove the
hydrogen and it is an animal and is alive; the remaining oxygen is also an
individual, an animal, and is alive.
Recapitulation: the two
individuals combined, constitute a third individual - and yet each continues to
be an individual - here was mute Nature
explaining the sublime Mystery of the Trinity
so luminously that even the
commonest understanding could comprehend it, whereas
many a trained master
of words had labored to do it with speech and failed." - Mark
Twain

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational
purposes only.
This website defines a new
perspective with which to engage reality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the falsification of reality outside personal experience has
forged a populace unable to discern
propaganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an
international corporate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt
version of reality on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any
group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religious beliefs or persons due
to their religious ideology. This web site marks the founding of a system of
philosophy named The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie - a
rational gnostic mystery religion based on reason which requires no leap of
faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in
which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a personal relation
with the Creator and Sustainer through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality
in the hope of curing the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human
spirit. The tenets of The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie are
spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Violent acts against
individuals due to their religious beliefs in America is considered a "hate
crime."
This web site in no way condones violence. To the contrary the
intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the
international corporate cartels desire to control the human race. The
international corporate cartel already controls the world economic system,
corporate media worldwide, the global industrial military entertainment complex
and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the elevation of self-centered
behavior and the destruction of global ecosystems. Civilization is based on
cooperation. Cooperation does not occur at the point of a gun.
American
social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as
the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more power. This power
rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general through corporate media
by pressing emotional buttons which have been preprogrammed into the population
through prior corporate media psychological operations. The results have been
the destruction of the family and the destruction of social structures that do
not adhere to the corrupt international elites vision of
a perfect world. Through
distraction and coercion the direction of thought of the bulk of the population
has been directed toward solutions proposed by the corrupt international elite
that further consolidates their power and which further their purposes.
All views and opinions presented on this web site are the views and
opinions of individual human men and women that, through their writings, showed
the capacity for intelligent, reasonable, rational, insightful and unpopular
thought. All factual information presented on this web site is believed to be
true and accurate and is presented as originally presented in print media which
may or may not have originally presented the facts truthfully. Opinion and
thoughts have been adapted, edited, corrected, redacted, combined, added to,
re-edited and re-corrected as nearly all opinion and thought has been
throughout time but has been done so in the spirit of the original writer with
the intent of making his or her thoughts and opinions clearer and relevant to
the reader in the present time.
