Does Mankind Need God?

Does Mankind Need God?

“Living in an Age of Technological Advancement”

For more than 2000 years, the world, according to humanities progression; has been going through a technological explosion whose major effects, within the last 100 years, are now being widely appreciated, and, because of the success of the same, the whole world, over night, entered into a new age; the Age of Technology. Within the last 50 years, technological breakthroughs in the advancement of medicine and medical equipments had increased dramatically from the days of the Son of Man, roughly 2000 years ago; healing the sick, giving sight to the blind and raising the dead, to, in recent times real life Technological miracles broadcast worldwide every second.

It is inevitable that Time will change, and with the changing of Time inevitably comes the retransformation of everything that exist in Time. The life of a Human, deeply interwoven with Time, has, in its self; a very short period of time to accomplish any chosen personal goal and/or agenda, and as a direct result; it is not prudent to anticipate the bounty of harvest before the toils of spring due to the self defeating nature of that exercise.

In a conscientious and collective effort to gain greater control over the environment, and in-keeping with the momentum of the tides of change; Humans have had to learn how to adapt in order to advance, and, without this ability to adapt, Humans would had already been a numbered statistics on the extinct species list. Mankind had entered an Age where the possibilities for physical immortality are virtually endless, and, an Age wherein reverence for Deity has been interestingly replaced by the curiosity of scientific research and development.

It is not so hard a thing to understand and willingly accept the many reasons as to why The World is enticed to choose faith in Technology over Deity for various reasons, of which, the foremost being convenience and comfort i.e.; why pray for rain when you can have a customized irrigation system installed, to remove the heart of flesh for a heart made of silicone. Mankind today poses the ability to change their natural form through surgical procedures and/or by the manipulation of genetic chromosomes to produce a species without blemish.

Seemingly, the powers of the gods are limited to Man only by the limits of his own imagination.

The rise and fall of Social Order..?

In the beginning, God took dust in hands and mold clay into Man, and thereupon, breathing living air into his body; commanded Man to be Father of life. Today, man is presumed to manage no more than the contents of his mind, and, exercises authority from the confines of imagination. He, who plants the seeds of mankind, is now unjustly described as an absentee father and inaccurately scrutinized by what was once a bone from his ribs.

This rebellious behavior of perversity and abomination violates ancient laws, so established by our Great Creator, which provided for proper protocol and an ethical conduct regarding humanity; by promoting and/or partaking in impermissible acts against nature. Where it was given for creation so quickly turns to destruction.

As one man, standing self-righteously proclaiming Truth and Honor, humbly aware of liberty and justice, and, having foregone the pleasantries of politeness and the innocence of ignorance by an oath of solidity and under penalty of impropriety, do again so solemnly swear; to loosen the grip of honor and relinquish the cable tow of restraint:

1 In presence of imminent periled to one’s self, one’s family and one’s country.

2. In instants of revolt and revocation against the structure and fundamental principles of civility.

3. Where rights and privileges of the few overshadows those of the many.

4. When the directives of the elected contradicts the will of the electorates.

5. When the scoundrel endeavors intentionally promotes an antagonistic social reform.

These above all others, when loosed and let to run unabashed; will inevitably signal the fall of Mankind and the destruction of civilization as known to man…this cannot nor ought ever be permitted to befall our people and this great Nation of Bahamas.

The New Drug of Choice…

Through resent result findings conducted on a virtual segmented mockup of Bahamian society, surveyed equally both between young and old, elitists and moderates, male and female members of the community, and, each asked to answer the same group of question in random order; the foregoing studies clearly reflected a close relationship regarding criminality and the rapid decaying of our society with our carnivorous appetite for burnt flesh.

By now, your body is going through a period of denial, neurons sending frantic impulses to your brain, falsely interpreting incoming signal to mean; threat to life – must react!!...opining heart valve pumps that floods your thin organic vessels with fresh blood that energize and invigorates you to mindlessly scrutinize the finding of this study, but, before that happens, use this opportunity to expand awareness of your world.

It is more often after many years of human testing can we substantively assume that any product will function “as seen on TV”, sadly many unsuspecting consumers haven used certain FTA approved product are dead today as a direct result. Certainly I do not contend that the FTA is totally responsible, however; their hands are not without the stain of innocent blood.

Before we stray from topic, into the gray field, let us relate the recent study findings, the indiscriminate consumption of meat and the escalation of deadly crime in our society. Certain schools of thought subscribe to the philosophy that the economy determines the crime element, and that; the healthier the economy, the sophisticated the crime, but when the economy is bare, all are in fear.

The perception of fear sends frantic impulses through the stock exchange, which falsely interprets incoming sellers to mean; threat to life – must react!!...opining heart valve pumps that floods your thin fiber optic vessels with decreasing stock options that energize and invigorates unscrupulous company executives to purposefully select unsuspecting consumer markets to off load trailer tons of inferior products at wholesale deals. Frozen cargo's pour into our container ports loaded with meat and meat based products streamlined to appeal to the needs of individuals on the go; with little chance of enjoying a home prepared meal that covers the major food groups and meets a daily recommended requirement of vitamins and nutrition.

Dear I add, for your consideration, the budgetary limitation of many second world countries are restraint by the demand to provide food for its citizens, wherever ministries heads can cut the cost of emergency provisions is unerringly viewed as a feather in the cap, and, to secure alliances with provider nations; one must eventually sleep with the devil, even at the possible life of the consuming public. Assuring to maintain the perception of transparency and accountability, second and third world countries governmental leaders, almost always, reflect health reports and potential benefits of prospective imported product conducted around nontraditional applications involving non indigenous consumers of their respective nations i.e.; optimized fuel additives for non performance vehicles, sugar free preservatives in candy products, weight loss dietary supplements, respiratory inhalers laced with poisonous ingredients, steroid addicted poultry, birth control and prohibitory or enhancement drugs etc.etc..

These are all but a few of our imports that are inconsistent with the overall health of a budding but progressive nation. Why are we fighting against the symptoms when the fight ought to be waged against the cause of all our health issues, point blank; our public policies to import more than 85% of Bahamas’s consumer products in contravention of establishing and sustaining better quality grown local products?

The effect of our misguided political ideologies has taken quite a toll on Bahamas’s failing health care, economy and inner communities. Despite the over tendencies to remedy acute prognostics with temporary relief; we still have not made any decisive decision to administer a permanent solution to crime in the Bahamian society. With the proliferation of fast food franchises in resent decades, one is ever present to the dangers of over indulgence and the lack of respect for moderation; where but a glance in the wrong direction, even the slightest aroma of fried meat can mean devastating consequences for unsuspecting patrons.

Whether or not who has the better answers is irrelevant at this juncture, although the public demand for full disclosure, one question remains to this day unsatisfactorily unanswered; what, if any, are the long term affect of genetically enhanced imported food product on the overall health of the average Bahamian family.

Erring On The Side of Ignorance

One of the difficulties I’ve found with the established and present world order stems from an ideology based upon a naive philosophy which mistakenly licenses elitism to a level of omniscience; wherein those whom have past throw the hallways of academia nonchalantly claim a right to distinguish themselves above the less educated, a sense that they have earned the rights to privileges beyond the ever reaching grasp of the unthinking masses. What has me so rattle about this situation rest within the historic fact that knowledge is ever expanding and has no true master, in essence; one is capable and evidently able to learn something absolutely, before, undiscovered.

It becomes laughable to observe so-called intellectual minds baffled when face with an issue they, themselves, are unable to neither understand nor succinctly articulate with any form of competency or rationality; where those whom have personally pursued knowledge fairly all their natural lives openly admit that their many years of higher education had not properly prepared them for the particular issue at hand. This, more than any, brings a level of sadness to my heart; to recognize the flaws of someone whom have trained themselves to become flawless, to view themselves as experts in any particular field and still confess their ignorance to the profession they have so greatly excelled above and beyond illogical thinking minds within society.

Is it even possible to claim special knowledge of, and upon, anything yet still not entirely understand that to which you have mastered? Ought we to, as finite beings, justify our limited understanding of our world by simplistically seeking to conclusively establish, by way of incomplete experimental studies, that we have learned all there is to know, of and about any particular item; to a degree that promotes one to the levels of doctorate, or, our we simply fools fooling ourselves and unfortunately misleading others?

It is say that “man creates standards and later serves them as though they were divine creations, only to discover ultimately that Deity had no hand in their fashioning”, that one whom had attained “higher education” almost often than never pursue careers positions of greater authority than their less educated peers based upon a misguided premise that they, alone, possess a better understanding of the world that others. This arrogance of intellectual significance place not only themselves but the whole world in a perpetual state of impending danger, and, more alarming is the acceptance with which the world so generously and graciously follows, almost without question, the mentality behind such irrational reasoning.

Bearing in mind the many examples set by past and present world leaders, it begs to question whom is more ignorant; those that claim leadership by way of birthright and/or academic accomplishment, or, those who have elected them to their lofty positions? Therefore I conclude with this quote attesting to that ancient truth which states “if wisdom is to instruct ignorance, it must be capable of appreciating the state of ignorance as truly as the state of knowledge” and to that I humbly yet emphatically add; ignorance is not only bliss but, indeed, the first step on the pathway to wisdom.

The Greatest Gift.

“Any rationally functioning mind could be rendered to accept an attitude of intolerance that does not follow along the pathological lines of the logical thinking human”. That statement represented, word for word, the surmise of an answer to a question in an ongoing debate respectively relating to the truly criminal minded, in specific; how do you effectively control crime in the 21^st century?

It is, to me, an oddity to expect one thing to happen yet another thing happens instead; to anxiously anticipate raindrops to immediately start falling from the skies, and suddenly hailstones rapidly begins falling. In a sense, it is the true metaphor of life and everyday living here on the planet Earth that engages us all with mental obstacles of obstructions that, more than often, manifest themselves to personify whoever our perceived adversaries may be.

One moment, our minds are actively stimulated by the contents of our immediate surroundings, and then suddenly; our minds are selectively toning out all frequencies that do not meet a predetermined [high/low] stimulus value. The symptomatic victims of such disorder can quickly and easily develop deep and unrelenting desires to experience an insatiable amount of physical pleasure to stimulate, or to put at ease; the sudden anxiety and discomfort experienced by their mind.

The other symptomatic extreme manifests itself through our subconscious urge to inflect a dangerous amount of physical and emotional distress upon ourselves and others; this can be publicly observed from a human prospective of the lone wolf verses the pack leader. The resemblance to anything remotely equivalent to an emotionally charged individual displaying violent tendencies towards the status quo ought to be noted as a mere coincidence and surly, no more than, unfounded accusations.

Ask yourselves; do you find it unacceptable to do anything you dislike? The flipside and hard reality to that question is the fact that, on average, 9 out of 10 persons were doing something they disliked. When faced with the choice of individual freedom against the threat of social discomforts, the masses would often choose the lesser of two evils or compromise; forego certain individual freedoms for some social comforts.

What is one truth and will invariably remain a constant in the nature of human is this fact; the greatest ability humanity possesses, from creation to this day, is our adaptability to changes, and it’s because we adapt to change so well; what it meant to be human now takes on a different prospective. The forbidden X-Gene or alien link that eluded scientific and religious minds cannot be ruled out as a possible reason explaining humanities sudden interest in all things self-destructive.

Our worthiest guess as to why the living finds so much fascination and intrigue in the world of the dead leaves one to consider the burden of life coupled with the daily cost of living per individual. With an estimated population of 6 plus-billion people living on the planet Earth to date; the collective cost of living increases with every new born child, a grave need to maintain an adequate number of individual upon Earth becomes that more a necessity.

Some had suggested, in times past, a theoretical premise that “all life were weighed upon the same scale and measured by the same rule” surly this same standard is used today but for the completely opposite reason. The policy of today is not geared towards the wealth of your soul, but rather, the worth of your bank account. This premise echoes the sentiments of those that justify their carnal lust for pleasure and strong desire for material worth, those whom are taught to accept an individual’s worth as equal to that which he/she had achieved in life.

The theoretical premise goes on to suggest “significant increases to revenue is produced as a byproduct to the reduction upon the overall expenditure”; the wording in the structure of this premise gave license for many to think of and devise methods by-which to stimulate the economy and increase their worth, and, at the same time; becoming the agent that induce fear, incite riots, begin wars and cause death. What is, in a sense, perceived as the modal of civil society, is simply a system upon the lasting principles of lies, stealing and murder.

The social-economic system adapted by the international markets seemingly is tuned into what is negative and self-destructive that it made provisions for total collapse of its own structure. A system that that is rooted in the practices of hand come, hand go; that it with one hand offers benefits and with the other take it away. Behind the thin vales of modern society rest the shocking truth regarding the seemingly simplistic systematic structure that fuels the economy, I’ve made a listed as follows;

1. 1. To provide for doctors you need sickness.

2. 2. To justify protection you need fear and violence.

3. 3. To accommodate magistrates and lawyers you need criminal.

4. 4. To elect a bad leader you need ignorant electorates.

To sum up and put a cap on my social observation, I draw your attention upon a phrase that gives credence to the life as being the greatest gift of all, however as in life; all things are relative.

Constitutional Reform from Colonial Imperialism

 

A constitution can be described as “particular kinds of laws or ordinances” or “the body of rules prescribing the major elements of the structure and organization of any group of people” or “the fundamental political and legal structure of government of a distinct political community”.          Personally I subscribe to a view that a constitution is an agreement containing certain laws, rights/privileges and penalties between an individual and/or groups of individuals and the ruling class; a written or unwritten document of specific rules and regulations outlining the parameters of conduct for an individual or group within a jurisdictional body of competent individuals empowering it to work. 

One of the major deficits to a constitution is the failure of the state or ruling class to, judiciously and irrespectively honor and enforce the letters of the agreement.

From a humanitarian prospective, I view the failure of any society as a result of inequality; representative of the direct prejudicial influence, by either the social elites, military or labor forces, upon the administration of the laws and economic growth of an entire Nation.

I am constantly reminded that it is easier for an individual to help another, out of a pit, than for the same to help themselves, when fallen, back onto their own feet. This reliance upon the group for moral assurance is clearly an inherent link to our tribal ancestry.                      Reminded of the deep roots, our rich lineage and bloodlines, one invariably quarry challenges the rational for universally adapting the social and economic culture of your oppressors.  

The oppressor’s educational curriculum teaches the oppressed, from birth, the historical significance of the ruling class; a herd-like obedience towards the laws of the land and belief in a social order built upon the Word of God as interpreted accordingly by all the kings’ men.

A system employed to render the conquered and submissive Nations functional as an arm of a corporate entity ideally known as Colonialism.   This system of governance requires the conquered people to become reeducated to adapt the purposes of their conquerors.           

For the conquered people, to better enabled themselves to function under Colonialism; the individual must have proven proficiency in the local languish and displays propensity towards loyalty.

When the first generation of colonized people had became adequately assimilated; the next order of business then becomes breeding a fully assimilated generation to maintain that the economic wheels remains turning. Having been assimilated to levels of limited self-recognition; the colonized nation easily abandons their native tongue and traditional culture, adapting to the language and culture of their captors and the sound of their captive names.

With every new generation produced the assimilation takes affect; the captive becomes a living functional part of a system that views, from the conquerors prospective; the privilege and limitations of the captive people as equal to chattels or live stocks. Each generation that follows, if the system runs successfully, will  readily adapt and sympathize with their captors religious, social and economic philosophies to the prospective of ascribing certain doctrines to be Gods infallible truth.       Regardless of organized efforts to discredit and abandon colonial imperialism; the need for all individuals to personally understand where you’re from to truly appreciate where you are and ought to go.     

When an emancipation laws is enacted, legislating enforcement of an already existing law concerning the freedom of all individual; in the mind of the captive people this is perceived as a win for human rights.   What is rarely considered, at the time, in the mind of the captives is this great universal truth; All men are created in the image and after the likeness of God regardless of race, creed or color.       

How could one race, creed or color logically claim genetic superiority over the others and systemically undo the will or, through legislation, advocate the work of God to be inferior? The greater wrong rest in the ironic sentiments of a captive people to, sincerely but ignorantly, thank their captors for legislating it legally acceptable for one race to exercise equal rights and/or privileges over another when all races are inherently obligated by God to freely exercise the same.

The questions that arise, surrounding suspicion and defamation, proved to be all true; the conqueror and the oppressor are one and the same, and, the system is still running strong. 

Knowledge is not as an ocean nor can it be characterized as a mighty rushing river, rather factually relevant is its metaphoric representation as a single bead of water trickling out from the center of a solid wall of rock.  It shatters ones grip upon reality; casting immediate scrutiny upon self-image and personal identity.    The realization that the constitutional promises of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness were all relative according to the legislative dictates of the ruling class; becomes a vision of infinite clarity before your presence.

A prospective view upon an individual that knows and applies the rights and/or privileges of any constitution to their personal advantage can simply be summed as a wise member of any community.                The realistic actuality of the largest segment of any society knowing all their constitutional rights and/or privileges, let alone understand their fundamental human rights to life becomes more and more predictable within a colonial Nation.

The word Colonial, not surprisingly, originated from the root word “Colon”: Co-lon or Clone, as in; to clone someone or something.              Many great empires of the Earth, and throughout history, use the philosophies of Colonialism as a form of control, socially and otherwise, of the masses.       The affects of Colonialism upon the captives mind is engineered to render long-lasting scars upon the emotional psyche; an exercise culminating with devastating consequences to cultural values and self-image issues relative to  fundamental human rights as interpreted by the laws of the State.  

It is justifiable to say; “You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free”, and as the term “truth” is of relative interpretation; it has become the captive’s obligation to obtain knowledge, administrate justice and remember the past.   

 

 

 

 

 

The Bahamas; The Struggle Continues...

 The issue of social advancement has been our (The Bahamas) only victory claim for the 21th century although the battle for economic empowerment wages on.       While much has been said of the opportunities in education and many had taken full advantage thereof; there is still a severe lack of career opportunities in those respective field of choice.

We as Bahamians have, for far too long, relied upon our political leadership to stand at the forefront to set the pace for the proliferation of economical growth but as many Bahamians can attest; most of the major opportunities in The Bahamas are served on a silver platter to foreign investors, and, this sentiment is shared among our banking sectors whom are all too willing to readily accept the hand of the stranger over local and familiar ones.     The chances that a Bahamian do succeed in business at his or her chosen profession is slim to nil in an economy boasting potential growth sectors to every foreign investor with a dream and good credit ratings.

Yes I do strongly believe that we (The Bahamians) can build The Bahamas into a world class economic power house providing we forthwith change our dependency upon our governmental leadership for direction and focus our attention upon individual merits and contribution.   This obviously will need the support of all Bahamian and not just the regular selective few which have broken through the stereotypical barriers to create their mini empires, and, the way I perceive it; we can no longer enter this modern global market place on our own without first passing and ensuring that the appropriate legislation had been implemented and in place to compliment our business objectives.

I further believe that we can and we must seek alternative vehicles for diversifying our economy because tourism and banking alone will not support our social and national growth forever, plans ought to have been drafted in the eventuality there are sudden bottom fallouts in our number one and two industries.   This will take physical action and not simply political rhetoric serious or not.  The time has come, and now is, when every individual Bahamian ought to ask the question; what can I do for my country, and then just do it.   

Unemployment Benefit Issues and Employers that Pocket Contribution

Here is irony in its most despicable form, the saga of a lowly store worker who devotedly supported her three young children and an aged retired mother near blinded by glaucoma; living day to day desperately dependent upon weekly minimum wage to make ends meet.         For two years she awoke in the early hours of the morning seeing to it that her three children (one boy and two girls) got ready for school regardless if they had very little to any breakfast to start the day; it was a must, for her, that they maintain a good education and was each day in attendance at school, on time and in order, before she went to work.

Through sickness, sunshine and rain; this single mother of three arrived for a hard day’s work prompt and in good form despite the toils and hardship endured.    Each day management would try their utmost best to keep the cost of operation to its bare minimum; accusing newly and unsuspecting employees of insubordination and/or theft in effort to withhold wages which were honestly earned became common practice.

For two seemingly long years; this did not deterred her until one day; when she could no longer withhold her silence and allow management to destroy the reputation of a coworker accused on unfounded charges of employee theft.         Management, seizing an opportunity, accused both employees of "conspiracy to defraud the company by reasons of employment": without any support given from union representation and no funds to hire an attorney both accused coworkers services were soon terminated without pay.

A few months later, still unemployed and without any steady form of income, and despite helping out a friend a few days a week in the Straw Market, the single mother of three, near at the point of hopelessness, applied for governmental assistance when a national unemployment benefit scheme had be enacted.  After providing the appropriate documentations and filling out the necessary applications, she was told to wait two week and so she did.

On the day our single mother was about to collect her national insurance benefits, she was told, by one of the clerks; it was not possible because N.I. contributions were not made on her behave by her former employers, which needless to say came as a shock; leaving her in total astonishment and disbelief.      How could something like this happen?... she ask herself. Indeed, how can something like this ever happen to a Bahamian in The Bahamas.

Determined to pull herself up by her own "boot straps" and make a new start to support her family, the mother of three went to work helping her friend - serving tourist in the Straw Market when a text message came across her cell phone.  The message was by the co-worker containing recent information on their former employer which, in closing, read: “by the way, Mr. Schaffer got both his legs cut off…”

Apparently god does have a rather bizarre sense of humor.

UPDATE: A month later, the mother of three was hired as a short-order cook, providing excellent food and customer service to the present date.  Her former employee (the N.I.B contribution thief) is financially struggling and still has much to answer before the court of justice and public opinion. 

Let me be the first to say...

Reflecting upon my insignificants, compared to the whole of humanity, and my individual contributions in prospective to the escalating needs of our human village; I have determined that my living was shallow and, indeed, in vain. Selfishly neglecting the spirit of the golden rule: to do onto others as you would they do onto you; in essence, becoming embittered and chose only to view the world from a perspective of ingratitude and self-centeredness.

Ladies, I hear your sentiments loudly, echoing the pain and suffering inflicted upon your frail emotions from the dawn of creation, and, instead of offering much needed comfort and relief; I barbarically continued savage attempts to bend and break your wills into submission. I now recognize and acknowledge my faults, a single-minded approach at cultivating relationships of conveniences, fostered along by vain ambitions and delusions of grandeur.

In my futile attempts to spark the light of everlasting passions, I have only succeeded at igniting the flames of war. Macho egotism alone cannot bear the burden for my irrational nature, nor can it justify the conceitedness with which I so callously flaunted my arrogance in the face of a woman’s worth.
I deserve no more than that to which I gave, which is, more than I could or ought to ever expect in return for my reckless abandonment of compromise and respect towards those noble principles which have stood for honor, decency and compassion. Never contented with such as I have, preferring often to reap that which I have not sown and acknowledge credit in service of that for which my hands had not labored.

Herein on this date, April 8th, 2009; let it be known far and wide that I, Chris Rolle, have stated may case, I have bared my soul and have made amends, with my God, for any and all offenses, directly or indirectly, wrought by my ignorance and intolerance of humanity, and in particular, upon those innocently by-standing, and, upon our beautiful and weaker sex.
For all that I have done and for all that I ought to have done and failed to do, I now humbly and sincerely ask, by the Lords grace; for your undeserved forgiveness.

Thank you Mr. Gibson

The day that Mr. Gibson took a pen and then he wrote;
An anthem dear, which we declare, our country can devote.
A brand new dawn, a nation born with sun, sand and sea;
A people cry, so fill with pride and look like you and me.

Struggling on from dusk till dawn but never once apart;
Reminded each day, give thanks and pray for God lives in our heart.
With steadfast eyes, together we rise; determined and so we stand;
Forward, upward and onward we’re marching on Bahama land.

We will not bow nor ever allow the stranger to tear us down;
Trodden and kill that which we’ve built and leveled it to the ground.
Our common ideal, clearly reveal, traditions from our past;
Here we will stand hand in hand; together we shall last.

As we move on, focus upon the issues in our life;
There’s bound to be, we’ll disagree, cause pain, heartaches and strife.
We are all our brothers keepers whether gathered large or few;
We walk each day by faith and pray our faith will take us through.

This I have seen for some have been portrayed as racist foe.
To love and unity this was a devastating blow.
A convoluted system treating man like filthy beast;
As long as there’s injustice, I fear, we shall not have peace.

From the day I heard that anthem I felt like a man;
I proudly walk the streets waving a flag in my right hand.
Solemnly lift my head as I look up into the sky;
Standing with my people; our bright banners waving high.

Thank you Mr. Gibson, your thoughts are truly heard;
I travel round the world and represent your every word.
There’s always something new to learn ever your anthem’s read;
Thou absent from us in body, your soul is never dead.

Keep marching on to a glorious dawn and smile upon our youth;
Intercede on our behalf until we find the truth.
I know mercy in heaven abound, or so I have been told;
May our spirits march together on streets paved with gold.

One last thing Mr. Gibson, if you have the time;
I’ve nothing worthy to give in honor so I wrote this rhyme.
I trust that it embodies each child, woman and man;
Proud to be Bahamian in this our Bahama land.

Again I say thank you, good sir, sincerely from the heart;
You may never recognize me but it is a start.
Like you I put a pen to paper and cast away the fear;
Composing words of honor crafted to ring within our ear.

Please touch our heart and guide us as we forwardly march on;
And keep us moving upward till the last of us is gone.
Protect and provide daily our sun our sea and sand;Pressing together onto glory; march on Bahama land

The New Order

I have lived more than a generation, and in one generation I have seen the carnage and refuge left behind by the previous. Devastation wrought by the vain ambition of the few and the pacifistic acceptance of the many. The strains of today compounded by the stress of yesterday leaves even the strong vulnerable before the weak. 

The traditional practice of procreation legislates for the child after the womb but has failed to recognize the child before conception. That right is commonly honored and enforced for any other manmade building project. What about the rights of the unborn; do they not have a legal right to participate in the great debate of life? Surly the unborn will reap the seeds sown by the dead.

The day has come, and now is, when there can no longer be unpaid debts for the unborn to bare . The time is here and now when we, this generation, must consider tomorrow generation whenever we do anything. The ancient lie that dictated the great decisions humanity made must be exposed, expelled and denied. The simple truth is revealed when we recognize that tomorrow is “not a fleeting illusion to be persuade” but to be expected. 

Question why it is that we have been given so great a creation and yet an insignificant life span. The bridge that take us beyond the limited of mortality rest upon the shoulders of our unborn children. When a generation moves the old landmarks set by the pervious expect a change. When an individual can place aside today’s harvest for tomorrow expect a change.

How can an individual make significant moves today that will persuade the decisions makers of tomorrow? By first; considering and respecting the rights of the yet unborn, it is their fortune we so carelessly through to the winds. It is the unborn child that will, with an iron fist, rule to future; all that we achieved is there’s to enjoy. As we are alive today so shall the unborn tomorrow.

SOCIALIST DEMOCRATIS REPUBLIC PHILOSOPHIES

In the interest of clearing the air from the stench of misrepresentation and stubborn-headedness, I shall shed more light on the fundamental philosophies upon which a true Socialist Democratic Republic ought to function. After which, I will allow you equal opportunity to render your individual verdict, either rejecting the proposal invalid or electing a viable platform from which the voice of the people can be heard resoundingly clear.

A true Socialist Democratic Republics primary directive: to better protect, provide for and sustain the needs of the individuals for a stronger Nation and a prosperous future. Not merely observing the price of corn on the commodities market but rather analyzes the value it gives to each citizen within its jurisdictional boarders. Protection in an aforementioned society is the responsibility of the state, and through state grants and subsidies’; those willing, and haven satisfied the criterion for such, are free to develop intellectual properties that can add more structure to daily operations and enforcement of state laws.

To better provide for the need of the individuals for a stronger Nation and a prosperous future clearly ought to be, if not a, the primary goal of any social orders especially that of our. Through the aid of planed parent acts and superior educational programs, the healthcare and academic provisions for each individual citizen thereof shall remain the investment of the state; which will allow for a more effective citizenry and an efficiently functioning government sector.

The structure of a Socialist Democratic Republic is made up of such that if but one citizen is in want, the whole Nation is found wanting, and because our destiny lay closely knitted; it therefore lay within my personal interest to truly become my brother keeper through good times and bad. As I have stated before: “I consider a Nation a team; an intricate unit, the ultimate family of which Almighty God is our Father, my neighbors; my brothers and sisters. It is only natural that one would earnestly seek to relieve his/her brother or sister fallen by the wayside;”

As simply as these exercises may appear, they remain, undoubtedly, seeds which when planted; germinates into a sprout with potential to, one day, become the new world order.

I rest…

The Chaos Philosophy

Think of a way to establish world peace, then, see which one of the following multiple choice fit closely to your original thought.

a. Incite fear.

b. Increase poverty.

c. Declare war.

d. Deny the problems exist.

If you have chosen more than one of the above; chances are, you teach instruction/s based upon the philosophy of Chaos…….TAKE CONTROL!!!

If you have chosen one of the above; you received instruction/s based upon the philosophy of Chaos…..BE STRONG!!!

If you have chosen none of the above; chances are you’re a victim of the Chaos Philosophy… RISE UP!!!

As strangely as this may sound; Project Chaos [the Practice of Chaos] existed from the empires of Egypt and remains active onto this day. Although its method rely heavily upon the use of bloody violence; the projects primary directive remains, maintain order and world peace.

The exploits of Project Chaos can easily be seen through (3) indicators; Politics, Banking and Military-Defense [secretly known as the evil trinity or devils triangle]. As the saying goes; first logic next money then force.

Politician influence the laws of a Nation which prohibits the freedom of its citizens. Banks influence the wealth of a Nation by levying interest and adjusting rates on personal, residential and commercial loans. Military-Defense simply provides the means for protect ting the money, and, enforcing laws.

So…how do you establish world peace? You incite confusion and fear through the media, increase interest rates on long team loans, create wars and deny your involvement.

Can’t Please Everybody

I was asked an interesting question by a senior clergyman in an honest but brief conversation concerning the condition of my earthly life and its consequential effect upon my eternal soul. In an attempt to evade generalizing a personal sacred vow to blind obedience the Clergyman lead his argument by asked me these few words; “Is your soul right with God?” Naturally being Me I took great offence at the degree to which a senior man of the cloth would stoop; implying in an elaborate Christian Code that my lifestyle was not up to par with the standard benchmarks of a 

God fearing believer, or more to the point; a God fearing Christian Believer. 

I tuned toward the senior clergyman now aged from the decades of battle with the forces of evil, looked him dead in the eyes and said; “it is not so important to me how I lived my life in as much as how I am remembered after I am gone”. I further went on to answer the senior clergyman’s’ deceptive question with these words; " If at all I am remembered by those that I’ve left behind, and even if their memories be but fragmented glimpse of my past acts of glorious triumphs and/or defeats; it would only serve as a testament to a life lead by a free thinking Man and not God”.

Suffice to say my heathenish statements may had touched a chord deep within the senior clergyman’s heart that he, for a brief moment time, stood still as if frozen, slowly dropped his head in an air of self contemplation and walked away from me…far away from me. From that very moment I knew that everlasting life, as it pertains to my life, was not just going to be a matter of the perpetuation of my physical essence through the continual reproduction of my prodigies but rather with spreading the essence of my soul and furious passion of my spirit in the mind and heart of but one living shall my name be forever written upon the pages of time and history.

Years has pass last the senior clergyman and I had our in-depth heart to heart exchanges with each other; I fairly written off his absence from the influence of my clique as a failure on his part to acknowledge my presence here on earth after I am gone. Not having my name be spoken out aloud in public nor silently in privet is indeed a death after death from which there is no return; simply because the memory of my name will be soon forgotten in the passing of time. 

I would have then became no more than an unknown marker in time, merely a statistical head count on the pages of his-tory, never again to gain an opportunity to tell my-story; I guess you can’t please everybody even in death.

Can you handle the truth?

"Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord my soul to keep, and if I die before I wake, I pray the lord my soul to take." 

Ever woke up one morning with serious intentions of blowing the world up or, at least, killing someone? I do, everyday, from as far back as I can remember.  It’s not as if I’m a mad man or serial killer, far from it. I simply think that the world would be a much better place without some people, or if it were like the world never existed at all. 

Surly and beyond any doubt I truly love my family very much, but not so much that I would be unwilling or unable to push an activation button that detonates a nuclear bomb. To be more precise; I defiantly believe that I would literally enjoy annihilating 2/3 the population of the entire world (give or take a billion). At the rate the world is being screwed up by political leaders, it would be an exercise of total kindness and compassion towards society; the cleansing of mankind.

I can delightfully imagine masses of people by the millions dropping (like flies) from exposure to noxious airborne gasses. Such thoughts usually bring a smile to my face whenever I’m feeling down and depress or from a long and hard days work. I don’t believe that this make me a bad person or evil, just a person that is honest enough and willing to realistically face who and what I am; a free thinking individual unclouded and unconstrained  by the burden of human emotion.

Can you imagine how many other persons, just like me, that are out there walking among us each day without the least bit care or concern for the plight of humanity. Ordinary people like you that would not blink an eye lid at the sight of death and destruction befalling others. Seeing and judging the world not in terms of black and white nor right and wrong but rather what is personally pleasurable and what is not.

The truly scary thing about it all is that there are more people like me now living in this world than people like you, and to me; that is a much more comforting thought because it makes me feel, by any standard of the word, normal.
