PAYING THE PRICE ONESELF.
Hmmmm. Duh.
If it would be worth 100,000,000 of my lifetimes for certain accomplishment above, it would be worth my 1 lifetime for a 1 in 100,000,000 chance. For a 0% chance? No. For a 1 in 100,000,000 chance of starting the chain reaction igniting global-family, reign of Kindom? Yes.
#1 - THINKING and TALKING to make us STRANGERS, to enable IRRESPONSIBILITY / DISUNITY / DISTANCE / DIVORCE / DISMISSAL !!!!
#2 - THINKING and TALKING to UNITE us as FAMILY, KIN, KINDOM to enable RESPONSIBILITY / COMMUNITY / COOPERATION / COLLABORATION !!!
We are all capable of either or. The fate of the planet depends on selecting Kindom. Always. Time is up.
The mechanics of Kindom-Building / Empire Deflation are:
The criteria of a hopeful Direct Action:
See Glossary for terms.
The fact is that this language is used for a reason - TO KEEP THINGS SAFE AND COMFORTABLE - FOR THOSE IN THE "MOVEMENT."
Well, things are not Safe and Comfortable for folks in:
What language is more hopeful and helpful?
We better look in the mirror.
Are we Humane / Christian,
or Empirist
today?
Empire is any and every state of consciousness that is NOT "World-Family / Kindom."
The crowning blow of Western / US Free Market Capitalism is to inculcate absolutely into biological (family) units - the state of "Empire." Per se, by definition, by IMmoral responsibility to be "Family" in this corrupt culture means to SEPARATE those with your DNA and place them ABOVE those without your DNA.
The proof? Who are our Saints? EXACTLY THOSE THAT HAVE ESCAPED THIS CROWNING BLOW OF EMPIRE:
THERE IS NO CORRUPTION AS MURDEROUS IN THIS UNIVERSE AS EMPIRE DISPLACING KINDOM WITHIN THE BIOLOGICAL UNIT.

JESUS' TEACHING:
"YOU ALL HAVE THE SAME PARENT,
JEHOVAH,
AND THEREFORE YOU ARE
ALL ONE FAMILY.
SIMPLE.
GET ON WITH IT.
NOW.
BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE."
What is more simple than white light from the sun? But in that light are all the colors, all the TRILLIONS of colors and shadings in the universe.
What is more simple than the "sight" provided by your eyes? But with that "sight" you can navigate unassisted virtually anyplace on the entire planet, or in the universe.
What is more simple than "Love as I have loved?" And with that Love you are called to all of the Joy and all of the Pain on the planet. And with that Love you become equipped to "see" with the Eyes S/He has - where you are needed in His/Her family and what you were born to die attempting to help.
REGARDING THE FORCES OF EMPIRE, PEACE WOULD BE ASSURED...
A PROSTITUTE ...
WAS STARVED INTO PROSTITUTION
BY BEING STARVED OF THE JOYS
THAT WERE "RIGHT" THAT S/HE HAVE.
I NEVER SAW THIS UNTIL TODAY. WHY TODAY?
I'VE BEEN OUT OF EMPIRE LONG ENOUGH, I GUESS.
... TO BE IN THE POWER STRUCTURE OF THE ATLANTIC LIFE COMMUNITY (ALC) / CATHOLIC WORKER / JONAH HOUSE MOVEMENT.
PITY.
