substance
Matter of which an object
consists.
Substratum which underlies all
outward manifestations.
The permanent foundation of
material phenomena in which
lie stable inherent tangible
properties in distinction from the intangible and ephemeral shapeshifting
properties of the spiritual phenomena of
waveforms.
A thing,
material or immaterial, that the mind,
by any of activities,
attempts to make cognizant or comprehensible so as to become an
apperceived or known
'object'.
An object
of matter or an object of
thought that exists, or is conceived to exist, as a
distiguishable separate entity within reality, whether
animate or inanimate.
"You give but little
when you give of your possessions.
It is when you give of yourself that you
truly give.
For what are your possessions but things you keep
and guard
for fear you may need them tomorrow?"
Khalil Gibran, The
Prophet
thing
"I am
convinced that if we are to get on the right side of the world revolution, we
as a nation must undergo a radical revolution of values.
We must
rapidly begin the shift from a
"thing-oriented" society to a
"person-oriented" society." - Martin
L King
Thing, an abstraction, is used in a very general sense in
English, and is still heard colloquially where a definite term for an 'object'
would be used in careful
composition.
It is typically used when the speaker cannot find a
proper name for the 'object' that is under discussion - 'thing' is
interjected.
This strange
abstraction, 'thing', can be used to describe something, anything and
everything as well as nothing !
Matter, composed of atoms,
has mass, occupies space and exists as a solid, liquid, gas, or
plasma.
A resource is an available source that can be drawn
on when needed.
Resources - mineral wealth, biodiversity, labor assets,
landscapes - drive economic and political development.

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 coöperation. Coöperation
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.
