Gaining Some Perspective Life has existed on Earth for ~3.4 billion years. If that time span were represented by a yearly calender with the beginning of life occurring on January 1st, then humanity does not appear until one minute before midnight on December 31st.   We humans were born of Space-binding, and the Space-binding way of Adversity has dominated our lives for most of our history. If we mark our beginning with Homo erectus then that is nearly 2,000,000 years of Adversity. If we mark our beginning with Homo sapiens then it is 250,000 years of Adversity. Even if we wait and mark the beginning with Homo sapiens sapiens it is still 90,000 years of Adversity. The first neutral mechanisms — money and local markets will not invented until 700BC. We won’t see the creation of national markets until 1600AD, and the institutionalization of Neutrality will not occur until 1776. And even today in 2002, while Neutrality is strongly present in the Western free world, the rest of the world — the majority of humanity still lives in Adversity. (03/17/02) Humanity is in CRISIS I am a afraid for us. … The times are very dangerous. Today, we are all in danger of the judgement, a judgement not of God’s making, but of our own. We have misjudged our own true identity. You and me, our wives and husbands, our children, our parents and grandparents, our brothers and sisters, friends and loved ones, all of us, each and everyone of us are in danger from our misjudgement of who we really are. We have failed to percieve ourselves as Time-binders. The adversary way of the Space-binder is not for us, and neither is the neutral way of the Energy-binder. It is true that we evolved from the world of space-binding, and there we mastered the adversary way. Our adversary past is legitimate. Our struggle there resulted in the emergence of our unique human intelligence — our Time-binding power. With our Time-binding intelligence and new human sensibilities, the adversary way became too harsh and painful for the human mind and spirit, and so we sought to escape. (03/17/02) 7:17:23 AM
