Sorry, no time for P.C.
Imagine you are born in a leper colony that has been isolated totally from any other part of the world. All you've ever known or heard about were lepers.
You were born into a spiritual leper colony that has been isolated for all intents and purposes from Healthy Life for maybe 5ooo years now - since the dawn of CIVILIZATION (with the exception of the indigenous tribes we so relentlessly and ruthlessly destroy).
Gandhi is SPECIES NORMAL.
King is SPECIES NORMAL.
Wilson, Wright, Arbeiter, Goodman... are SPECIES NORMAL.
You and I are Spiritual Lepers.
But we can and must heal ourselves... NOW.

CARBON FOOTPRINT? NO. CONSUMPTION FOOTPRINT.
40 years ago the notion of reducing our "carbon footprint" may have been appropriate.
But that time is gone.
Survival of the species depends on immediate, heroic, life-or-death pursuit of ZERO NET CONSUMPTION FOOTPRINT.
Like EVERY successful life-form we must NOW PRODUCE MORE THAN WE CONSUME - FOR THE ENTIRE BODY OF HUMANITY.

ENCOURAGEMENT OR ENABLEMENT? START'S SIN (ERROR.) SORRY.
I'm a slow learner. You must forgive me.
To those of you to whom I now seem horribly brusque, short, impatient, unkind ... the truth is I've been criminally, cowardly patient, timid, tentative, pleasant for decades, unable to discern between what I had intended - encouragement - with what I've actually delivered - ENABLEMENT.
I knew no better. I know better now.
More patience, timidity, pleasantry, kindness from me will kill you by ENABLING you the delusion that we have more time.
Forgive me.
No more enabling.
The toughest Love I can muster is, I pray, all you can expect from me.

The best Total friend, the most promising PeaceWarrior I've ever met terminated our relationship recently, selecting Empire over Humanity; you know, American VALUES.
Heshe has for years demonstrated extraordinary courage in standing near to me as no one else would or could. It was more than anyone could bear. "I believe in you," heshe said out of the blue just 2 months ago.
What happened? Saturation / time took its toll. Empire is merciless. BUT BEYOND THAT my nails grew extremely long (the war to save a fellow PeaceWarrior totally absorbed me for months) and that was the final straw. The camel's back broke. (After years, the PeaceWarrior I attempted to Save is in recovery.)
I THINK WHAT HAPPENED WAS heshe was unknowingly thinking for all those years, "Start represents the right EVOLUTION/IMPROVEMENT on our Western / "Christian" value system." But finally with the long nails, heshe saw that I REPRESENT TOTAL REBUKE OF, AN ENTIRE REJECTION OF, A COMPLETE REVOLUTION OF VALUES TO REPLACE THE EXISTING VALUE SYSTEM.
"Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: "What did you go out into the desert to see? A reed swayed by the wind? A man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who wear expensive clothes and indulge in luxury are in palaces [MIDDLE CLASS SUBURBS]. But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet." "
We are on the verge of Armageddon ENTIRELY BECAUSE of the VALUES of our Western "Civilization."
The burden of proof, along with the Lives of everyone you love, born and unborn, is on YOU not me.

THE ""CHOSEN: WHAT "THE LEAST OF THESE" MAKES OF THE LIVING
THE CHOSEN: WHAT "THE LEAST OF THESE" MAKES OF THE LIVING.
"Many are called, but few are CHOSEN," taught Jesus.
I never understood this until recently. Here it is.
True example: A year ago dozens of folks are on a subway platform. A white fella passes out and falls perpendicularly on the tracks as a train was rushing into the station (the least of these). A black fella jumped down, moving them both between the tracks, and lay on top of him. Asked later why he did it the answer was, "He was me," or some such thing.
All the onlookers were "Called" by their eyes and Humanity to act. But only one was Chosen by the situation - irresistibly grabbed - Chosen by the situation.
But among the onlookers and and subsequent News Paper readers - maybe next time more will be Chosen. That's how it works. Humanity breeds Humanity. Inhumanity breeds Inhumanity.
Gandhi was Chosen, and then others.
Civil Rights Marchers were Chosen, and then others....
All hope lies with the Chosen.
ps: Want to be among the "Chosen," the Living? Keep yourself among the-least-of-these; entirely. Or you and all you love WILL be Dead and maybe dEAD too.

I don't undertand this, but I suddenly recognize it to be true.
Somehow, the gurus, the prophets, the Saviors cannot be found unless they are remote. I've been fighting this lesson for decades.
Have I finally learned? Is it too late?
The Almighty knows.

Dr. King called it an internal "civil war."
Relative to your Joy, Quality of Life, and the existence of the human species YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A PSYCHOLOGICAL WAR 100% OF THE TIME:
The only other possibility given the constraints of our DNA-given psychology is the side of your Humanity, by whatever name. This is the side that King, Gandhi, Jesus, Wilson, Wright, Arbeiter... and others are on.
Selfishness has all but won.

LOVE GOES ON. ANYTHING LESS GETS DISCOURAGED AND STOPS.
From personal experience, mine and YOURS, think about it.
Isn't there someone that you Love so much that nothing, no sacrifice, no wound, no hurt, nothing short of physical death could stop you from serving them in time of critical need?
That, THAT is Love. Nothing less is Love.
If you get Discouraged, re-discover your Love for the Least-of-These our suffering sistersbrothers.
Love goes on, until Pulse stops. Even then Love goes on... forever. Think Gandhi, King, Jesus.

"INTENTIONAL COMMUNITIES:" THEIR DESTRUCTION IS IN THEIR ATTEMPT.
Intentional Community - CANCER is an Intentional Community of sorts. It is a sub-group that sets itself off from the BODY. Any such life form WILL die, because the group becomes divorced from a Living body. (Oh, this is a LOT more than cute metaphor.)
The only true Community is the COMMUNITY OF HEROIC SERVICE TO THE ENTIRE BODY OF HUMANITY: Code Pink, Doctors Without Borders, M.A.S.H. unit....
Everything else is a form of cancer, and will die as it kills the Entire Body.

"FOLLOW ME... LOSE EVERTHING:" INCREDIBLE BLESSING
Jesus is who the quotes allude to.
Well, I though by now I'd lost everything. Boy was I wrong. The folks that have been an unbelievable God-send to me for the last 8 years have terminated our relationship. What a crushing blow.
I bleed profusely every day over this.
But, as suggested by the saying, "If it doesn't kill you, you grow," it is an unbelievable blessing.
I am now freer of illusion and constraints than ever I have been. I am freer to see and tell the Truth than ever I have been.
I am freer now to serve these beloved friends, and all my sistersbrothers than ever before I have been, now.
No, there is not a particle of bitterness.
Jesus was correct in every sense.

"SOLIDARITY WITH:" THE ALTERNATIVE TO LONELINESS
I've spent most of the years of my adult life in the midst of folks that did not Love me - especially the person I was married to for 26 years.
I was excruciatingly LONELY until after 17 years or so I realized that if I Loved, if I was in solidarity with her (or anyone / everyone) the LONELINESS was instantly eliminated.
And NO, neither before nor after did I every witness on particle of Solidarity / Love from her to me. Unnecessary to the elimination of Loneliness. Love. Be in Solidarity with the least of these. You will NEVER be Lonely again.
This is a psychological fact. NOTHING else is certain to eliminate true Loneliness as is Solidarity WITH others; all others.
Only YOU can prevent this.

OK. Think of the person for whom you have the most unconditional, altruistic Love / Agape.
That is Love. EVERYTHING ELSE, EVERYTHING LESS IS SOME FORM OF LUST. Is Lust bad? Lust IS NOT LOVE, is not that power we must harness to save humankind.
You must become Christlike, now, or there is no hope for us. Become hypersensitive to any Double-Standards within you, and allow the lesser standards to expire through relentless neglect.

LOVE IS THAT WHICH DOESN'T WAIT TO BE ASKED
My entire interest relative to Love is more that of physics than metaphysics.
Love (the counter to entropy) is the greatest power in the universe. We learn to harness it or we die as a species; now.)
What is Love, a word that we've so crucified beyond recognition?
Love does not wait to be asked - this is one of it's key characteristics.
I've long wondered why I do not ask for help. This is why - Instinctively I knew that only Love will help me fulfill my mission and in all but a few cases, if I have to ask, there is not Love to be had in the direction I would have asked.
Does a motherfather wait for his infant to ask for herhis diaper to be changed? NOT if the motherfather is Loving.
Love is that which finds out and DOES before it needs to be asked.

WE MUST NOT WASTE TIME WITH THE PREVAILING GARBAGE PREACHED ABOUT GOD!
David Dellinger (paraphrase): 'In the time of Jesus, the Hebrew for God was - the Almighty Power WE ALL EXPERIENCE, AND THAT NO ONE WILL EVER BE ABLE TO NAME."
God = LOVE, LIFE, TRUTH, which within each human being is distilled as their DNA given, nervous system complex that we call our HUMANITY (as opposed to Inhumanity / Unhumanity and not to be confused with humanness.

I KNOW 8 LIVING HUMANS, AND HUNDREDS OF ZOMBIES
This was a shock. For many years now I've known that the vast majority of my sistersbrothers I knew personally were walking dead, blood-sucking (parasite) zombies (who I unconditionally Love), but to finally see that only 8 are for sure Living - this is huge awakening for me. Just a few weeks ago the number I'd have given was 2 - 4 times that.
What changed? I've since seen that LIFE IS MILITANT HUMANITY IS UNIVERSAL LOVE-IN-ACTION. NOTHING LESS IS LIFE; not kindness, not relentless pleasantness....
ZERO DOUBLE STANDARDS. SISTERSBROTHERS PERIOD. I know 8 that for sure love my least-of-these-my-children as much as their own. Diane, Bev, Ann, Gael, Laurie, Margaret, Des, Amy....
We better become real good at generating Life / Humanity / Universal Love. FAST. (Yes, I know another 5 or so of you that WERE, or MAY SOMEDAY BECOME, but to my eyes you are not there yet.)
(Zombies NEVER choose to be zombies, any more than the Living choose to be Living. BUT the Living can choose to ATTEMPT to give Life.)

HYPOCRICY DETECTORS: B.O., TATTOOS, LONG NAILS AND HAIR...
Now remember, little if ANY Sin / Error / Hypocrisy is conscious! I'm making a diagnosis, not a condemnation here in what follows.
I had no foresight to the indispensable value of B.O., tatoos, long fingernails and hair, until I saw it with my own eyes. Someone that I saw as the best Total friend / colleague by far that God has ever given me was unmasked - terminated our relationship - as my B.O. became more extreme and my fingernails grew through neglect due to my single minded efforts to breathe life into a dying hero - I live at war. (The hero is now in recovery for the first time in many, many years by the way. Pray,)
This termination came weeks ago and I still bleed; feels like the wound will never heal.
But what an incredible blessing, what a gift for us both to have escaped a deadly Hypocrisy weeks, months, years... sooner than otherwise might have occurred. So much time Saved. The gift of Time, which is the gift of Life.
It never was a Friendship at all, because true Friendships / Love cannot end. It was / is I think a POTENTIAL Friendship / Love; but maybe it was never that; rather an infatuation, a fantasy (entirely altruistic), a mirage....
I don't expect I'll ever know.
But I'll be forever grateful for the heroic kindnesses shown me; and for the B.O. , long finger nails, etc. that they are likely to remain part of me - HYPOCRISY DETECTORS - that I am otherwise far too blind without.

}}}}}}} CHRISTLIKENESS: THE ENTIRETY OF ALL HOPE {{{{{{{
A year and a half ago God took mercy on me and my pitiful struggles toward Life / Truth / regaining-my-Humanity and revealed to me the Truth that Life lay along the Path of never again working for money, but living or dying solely within the relationship of "Family," from each according to herhis ability, to each according to herhis need. My yearnings had been tearing me in that direction forever but the clarity that day at the White House on hunger strike for Darfur was a Divine gift. It was soooo the Clarity I had been searching for. And thus I've LIVED WITH A SHAMEFUL WEALTH OF JOY ever since.
Today I've received the next installment - Life comes, is developed by, and is to be accepted ONLY from PeaceWarriors / Humanitarians / Christlikes / WorldFamily, come what may. ("Christlikes?" What Jesus attempted to restore us to - "Our Father.... (Jesus said, including you and me WITH Himself.)" "Whoever claims to abide in Jesus aught to live just like Jesus lived;" John's 2nd letter. Why not "Christians?" Christians are Pagans and Zionist-jews that stole and have masqueraded under the "Christ" brand for wholly evil, anti-Christlike reasons; the greatest most murderous hijacking / hoax / atrocity / holocaust in history.)
Is all this ranting of mine Exclusionary? Elitist? How could I have been so blind, I wonder. This is among the most profound, hopeful awakenings on my part in the last 10 years! Eureka! Thank God! When I was in the computer industry turning around failing organizations I was acutely aware of the ULTIMATE importance of having the right people in the organization. Everything was possible with, nothing was possible without. Truly and consciously I would much rather have had vacant seats, than to have those seats filled with non-zealous, non-selfdisciplined, non-committed folks; and frequently so it went. Since leaving industry, and especially since entering God's business, Saving Humanity, I've totally, TOTALLY overlooked this ALL IMPORTANT ASPECT. In industry would I have hired / engaged with someone because they were nice, because they were pleasant, because they were kind, because their WORDS were agreeable? NO! These are important ingredients but totally insufficient in and of themselves to achieve anything great. No, the crucial ingredient I knew to look for in a recruit / partner / fellow traveler / contributor then was potential for Vision / Burning Desire / Fire / Passion / Courage / Commitment / Self-Sacrifice / Self-Discipline / Complete Devotion, Surrender and Submission to Mission. This has been nowhere on my radar screen, a profound and total blind spot day after day, year after year since joining God's Business - Humanity. Thank God for this new clarity. God forgive me if I forget again.
There is, there IS PeaceWarrior / Christlike (health) and everything else is Death (cancer); everything else, no matter how kIND, how nICE is the end of Life-worth-living on earth - lIVING Death. Extreme view? Your heart is extreme - it NEVER for an instant has stopped to think of itself; it NEVER has stopped beating, stopped Living entirely for the body - for the "least of these." Same for the skin cell, the eye, the ear, the liver.... Such total, complete, 100% service, EXTREME SERVICE of the BODY is the way, the only way of Life NOTHING ELSE IS LIFE. It is precisely this Clarity that seized and held Jesus, and now holds me. Thank God. "What profiteth a man to win the wORLD but to lose hisher Life; hisher HUMANITY?" "The good shepherd lays down his life for the flock." "Do unto others ALL that you would have them do for you." "You cannnot serve God and Mammon." Falling away from what the heart knows and practices, what the skin cell knows and practices - 24/7 service - is the ENTIRETY of the Biblical "Fall" from Grace, the Fall from God / Life / Love / Humanity. "We will be extremists for love, or extremists for hate." ML King. Tissue is healthy, or it is cancer. Start Loving.

Christians are Pagans and Zionist-jews that stole and have masqueraded under the "Christ" brand for wholly evil, anti-Christlike reasons; the greatest most murderous hijacking / hoax / atrocity / holocaust in history.)
Is all this ranting of mine Exclusionary? Elitist? How could I have been so blind, I wonder. This is among the most profound, hopeful awakenings on my part in the last 10 years! Eureka! Thank God! When I was in the computer industry turning around failing organizations I was acutely aware of the ULTIMATE importance of having the right people in the organization. Everything was possible with, nothing was possible without. Truly and consciously I would much rather have had vacant seats, than to have those seats filled with non-zealous, non-selfdisciplined, non-committed folks; and frequently so it went. Since leaving industry, and especially since entering God's business, Saving Humanity, I've totally, TOTALLY overlooked this ALL IMPORTANT ASPECT. In industry would I have hired / engaged with someone because they were nice, because they were pleasant, because they were kind, because their WORDS were agreeable? NO! These are important ingredients but totally insufficient in and of themselves to achieve anything great. No, the crucial ingredient I knew to look for in a recruit / partner / fellow traveler / contributor then was potential for Vision / Burning Desire / Fire / Passion / Courage / Commitment / Self-Sacrifice / Self-Discipline / Complete Devotion, Surrender and Submission to Mission. This has been nowhere on my radar screen, a profound and total blind spot day after day, year after year since joining God's Business - Humanity. Thank God for this new clarity. God forgive me if I forget again.
There is, there IS PeaceWarrior / Christlike (health) and everything else is Death (cancer); everything else, no matter how kIND, how nICE is the end of Life-worth-living on earth - lIVING Death. Extreme view? Your heart is extreme - it NEVER for an instant has stopped to think of itself; it NEVER has stopped beating, stopped Living entirely for the body - for the "least of these." Same for the skin cell, the eye, the ear, the liver.... Such total, complete, 100% service, EXTREME SERVICE of the BODY is the way, the only way of Life NOTHING ELSE IS LIFE. It is precisely this Clarity that seized and held Jesus, and now holds me. Thank God. "What profiteth a man to win the wORLD but to lose hisher Life; hisher HUMANITY?" "The good shepherd lays down his life for the flock." "Do unto others ALL that you would have them do for you." "You cannnot serve God and Mammon." Falling away from what the heart knows and practices, what the skin cell knows and practices - 24/7 service - is the ENTIRETY of the Biblical "Fall" from Grace, the Fall from God / Life / Love / Humanity. "We will be extremists for love, or extremists for hate." ML King. Tissue is healthy, or it is cancer. Start Loving.
}}}}}}} PUBLIC ENEMY #1 TODAY: GOD / GOOD / LOVE / LIFE / TRUTH {{{{{{{
God. God is our Public Enemy #1. We despise God. We've relentlessly, ruthlessly, effectively killed, and continue to kill the God who used to admonish us. Adam and Eve are no longer ashamed; Kane is no longer ashamed; no, they've become proud. They've, we've killed God in ourselves and in those around us - what's to be ashamed about? Imagine such an enormous achievement - killing God. Who wouldn't be proud.
But the God of creation (God IS the natural laws of Life, Physics, Psychology... distilled within us as our Humanity (the opposite of In/Unhumanity...) that are the Force of Creation) - God - will have the final say. When we've violated the Truths of Life sufficiently beyond a point - Entropy has its way - Life-worth-living ends. We've now so effectively killed God in ourselves and in those around us that Entropy has no opposition. How so? It is not God / Humanity that has us amusing ourselves while women are raped in Darfur. It is not God / Humanity that has us in comfortable homes while billions need what we hoard and lavish upon ourselves. It is not God / our Humanity that has we Americans sit and watch while our tax dollars are used to rape and pillage, kill, starve and deform the weak around the world in order to extort their resources....
Some of this is on my mind because there is a fellow in the community in which I reside who is a fanatic about the literal story of Noah, and the flood. Of course I absolutely reject the notion of a sentient Creator who would turn around and "flood," willfully destroy what SheHeIt was responsible for, as utter nonsense. But as an allegory, as a metaphor it is exactly what is in the final stages of unfolding here on planet earth - terrorism (of which we in the US are the greatest purveyors by many orders of magnitude), environmental disintegration, arms race (about to accelerate into the stratosphere); looming Police State; brilliantly disguised Fascist State... THE FLOOD IS UPON US.
But Start, we are so nice to each other in our "families;" we are so extremely pleasant to mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles cousins, grandma's, grandpa's, "friends like us," and even on occasion those in our chURCH, strangers and wierdos. I've come to realize, quite to my surprise that this type of "family love" is precisely THE mortal sin. Such "immediate family" Love existed in Jesus day, predominated in Jesus day. Was Jesus against such Love? Of course not. But He was explicit - "even the heathens (pagans?) do that." No, what Jesus DIED for, His entire desperate attempt to "Save" humanity was to show us that Life depends entirely on Love for the LEAST OF THESE; LOVE FOR THE ENEMY - AS ONESELF - AS ONE'S "IMMEDIATE FAMILY;" not one iota less or different - but rather MORE because the least-of-these needs more! If our finger is bleeding, if our finger is at that moment "the least of these," that finger, that tiny remote part of our body gets all the attention, right? Jesus died to telly us that regardless of how daunting, how impossibly high this bar of performance seems to be set - the immutable truth of Creation is that Life would/will come to an end, in a million horrible ways, if humankind did not regain this God given capacity - Humanity - that every child is born with, which every child manifests until they are taught that there are some folks that are to be cared for, and it was unavoidable, morally neutral and "natural," to not care, to care less about others - the stranger, the enemy, the weirdo, the extremist.... Even CANCER does this. This is precisely what cancer does - it cares / massively nurtures those around it - those like it - and they flourish and multiply and prosper - and the body is neglected, and the body dies, and then the cancer that has so enjoyed itself, and flourished - it too dies a horrible death - first the Spirit / Humanity / God / Truth-DNA of Life is killed and dies, then the body.
Your Loving brother,
Start
ps: But Start, what about the Churches - God's house! A house of wax, a wax museum at best - more truly a zoo or prison where what is left of God / Jesus is kept safely imprisoned, to be visited rarely and safely on occasion to enable our cancerous delusions to flourish unimpeded; and flourish they have.

}}}}}}} CHOOSE SELFISHNESS AND YOU CHOOSE TO LEAVE GOD {{{{{{{
(from an early February email)
Hey brother.
"Nobody chose war; they chose selfishness and the result was war." Dave Dellinger
This phrase has been playing around in my mind constantly for the last week or so, and it was an extreme lightning bolt of illumination for me a year or so ago when I read it in Dellinger's "Radical Nonviolence" which is in your audio collection. Do you see the implications? 'Nobody chose war / prostitution / divorce / rape / murder / vehicular homicide / environmental destruction / disturbing the peace / fascism / depleted uranium / ACTIVIST-IMPOTENCE - collusion... THEY CHOSE SELFISHNESS AND THE RESULT WAS (SEE ABOVE).
The phrase has been in my mind as I've worked these endless, lonely weeks on the project for you as my life-long struggle with addiction to (online) pornography arose. Also in my mind as I've struggled, more successfully than ever (so far) with my addiction, is something new. "Start, YES you want to indulge in the addiction, with practically every ounce of strength that you have. BUT THAT IS NOT THE QUESTION. The question is, do you want to leave the realm of hopefulness / helpfulness / Life / Goodness / Love / HOPE / GOD for the time it will take to indulge your addiction, your SELFISHNESS?' Brother, I've never had this last "question", this CHOICE in mind before; I've never seen it; and it has been a Salvation for me. For entirely selfish reasons, now that I have SEEN the choice I have had encouraging new levels of success (complete) against my addiction. YES I want to indulge in pornography. NO I don't want to leave the realm of Goodness / Godness that is available for me to inhabit. I never saw that this is what I was choosing - to leave Life / Goodness / Hope / Potential... for my addiction, for my selfishness. I'm finding that if when the temptation arises I BRING THIS CHOICE CONSCIOUSLY TO MY MIND, to ask my self, "Start, do you want to leave Goodness?," it causes me, if FORCES me to make much more Joyful decisions.

THE EXTINCTION OF CHRISTIANITY: THE cHURCH'S TRIUMPH
Jesus died to let the genie out of the bottle - the genie of Life, Love, the Divine within us - HUMANITY.
Then a state appointed gate keeper arrived on the scene to get that genie back in the bottle and to keep it there. Within 200 years the job was done and it has been maintained ever since. Yes, the cHURCH - Christ's Crucifier; Jesus Jailer. They have brilliantly succeeded in rendering Jesus totally harmless to the state (and actually a huge asset!) for 1800 years now. Quite an achievement.
