Nobel Pursuits: An Open Letter to Sir Richard Dawkins

Sir Richard Dawkins, Evolutionary Biologist

Dear Sir;

Forgive the intrusion into such a brilliant world but I put this off long enough. The Selfish Gene, your remarkable book on evolution, biology, and human behavior like our world itself looks a bit different seen through eyes immersed in turbo-charged enlightenment.  It was only a matter of time until this Poet with Leo rising would entertain one of the world's great Thinkers.  Certainly, with all due respect I must take issue with your theory.

There is no such thing as a selfish gene. There are only bad

and selfish governments. Citizens and resulting culture are products and byproducts of government.  Selfish corrupt incompetent government produces citizens reflected through the looking glass.  It is the true trickle-down effect. Chaos produces enough Thinkers and Freedom Fighters to keep the system afloat offering hope for a brighter future. That future has arrived. 

My apologies for not shedding enlightenment on this matter earlier but been a little busy here with our own bad government and the riddle.

Your good friend, Neil degrasse Tyson inspired part of the answer to a long standing riddle of humanity. Why can we no longer reproduce? Such is the extinction riddle and the answer comes as an immensely complex problem. The solution to that immensely complex problem is a prescribed matriarch society.

I do fall off the planet at times and keep in touch with issues poorly. However, I have a notion this selfish gene thing could create a minor storm threatening to drive all good women away from atheism. I am here to drive them to spirituality as an atheist transitioning to spirituality. Nevertheless, I  see how a selfish gene theory could have negative effects particularly on women and our world. I suspect it is a matter best dropped altogether.  

This spider-web of interrelated blogs sheds more light on my evolutionary theories along with a book coming soon. Any who, here are some revelations that could use contemplation of a brilliant mind. This list does not represent all I must deal with on this planet as some labors are mine alone. Presented for your consideration, here then are evolutionary pronouncements more befitting a brilliant mind as noble pursuits:

1) Cosmic Transference; a phrase I coined to describe turbo-charged enlightenment shared by many men including Joseph Smith, Charles Manson, Albert Einstein, and many others. I believe it explains the formation of all known religions. It is the Heterosexual Nexus that is responsible in large part for raising intellect of the Poet and this letter.

2) The Spiritual Loophole; another coined phrase inspired by Dr. Tyson provides the last argument for why religion continues for so long. In short, humans are inherently spiritual and need spirituality for survival and evolution but do not understand what they need and can be taken advantage of by fill in the blank in pursuit of what is vital.

3) Abortion is to humans as a pack of lions are to a herd of zebra. The fundamental difference is humans have free will or at least she did have free will until the advent of bad government. (That revelation adds support to the no such thing “selfish gene”.)  No adequate abortion also explains devolving species, making human monsters, and more. Her free will in this matter represents the essence of “natural selection”. 

4) Spiritual knowledge here regarding extinction species humanity appears superior to Science. Not sure if reproductive experts know it, but there is a point of no return different for all nations regarding extinction. Sorry to say, Great Britain appears past the point of no return. "Brexit", I believe, is an attempt to right the ship.

Well, if that does not provide an aspiring person food for thought then it affirms a species desperately seeking apocalypse. May the force of reason be with you. 

Best Wishes,

Dangerous Universe: When Dreams Come True

 

Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen. 

—Ralph Waldo Emerson

When a man deliberately sets out to attend college for the sole purpose of becoming a political leader without benefit of real-world job experience, what does it say about the moral character and intellectual integrity of such a man?   Does he tell us by default that real-world job experience is not needed or has no value as experience on the resume of a would-be political leader in America? 

A government job and political leader are two distinctly different jobs.  One qualifies as real-world job experience and the other does not.  Working at the Post Office is a government job and qualifies as real-world job experience.  U.S. Senator is the job of a political leader and does not qualify as real-world job experience.  

Connections to people and the work environment, actual experience within the backbone of society succeeding or failing becomes the structure upon which character is built.  There are lessons to be learned and character developed in volunteer work.  However, such is at a level considerably less than earning a wage to pay the rent for a decent job.  A decent real-world job makes a person healthy, wealthy spiritually, and wise.   

Life is a a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. 

—Ralph Waldo Emerson

Let us look briefly at the career of recently retired NBA Champion, Kobe Bryant

as example.  One day, Kobe dreamed of becoming the best NBA player greater perhaps than his idol, Michael Jordan.  What does Kobe do?  He practices basketball skills a lot.  By the time a little Mamba reaches High School, he is one of the best basketball players in his state and thus the nation.  When drafted out of High School by the Lakers, he arrives boy among men but with real self-esteem built upon a body of work achieved through lots of practice.  We, the public could see that work on video and even without video we could review his stats. Even as a Rookie he earned our respect before ever playing a game.  Entering the game with actual achievements, Kobe had plenty to rely upon when he sat on the bench as a Rookie. He had nowhere to go but up and became one of the great NBA Players.

When a man becomes a Senator straight out of college, what is his self-esteem built upon?  Maybe he was a student body or class president.  That would be something but not nearly enough  qualifications to become a national political leader or giving him true self-esteem upon which to do the job at all successfully. Some modern Presidents coveted U.S. National Guard service on their resumes and military work is invaluable experience especially for someone wishing to become Commander in Chief.  After becoming a U.S. Senator without true self-esteem or any experience or body of work in a profession that might add to the job of political leader, what would then make such a man think that he has the qualifications or intellectual integrity to attain and flourish in the job of U.S. President of America?



Self-esteem is the reputation we acquire with ourselves. 

—Nathaniel Branden

That Barack Hussein Obama became U.S. President is not a special achievement.   It is a slap in the face to America.  It is a warning sign.  That he would even attempt to become a political leader with his resume at the time shows disregard for everything dear to humanity and such reveals itself again and again it seems in his awful presidency.  Yet, there had to be an Obama to galvanize the coming renaissance.

To be or not to be?  That is the wrong question.  Mr. Obama dreamed of being someone… a political leader or U.S. President and he got his wish.   Once he became what he dreamed of becoming, his cosmic journey ended.  He had nothing to offer as that is not what he was built to do.  He was not built to do anything.  He was built to be a bureaucrat and as such is nothing but an empty shell full of second-hand thoughts, ignorance, and good intentions.  Oppressive government roads to hell and extinction are paved with good intentions.

The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding.  

—Albert Camus

If a university tells a man he is fit to become a political leader in America by virtue of his college career alone, that is a dangerous institution.  When a man tells us by his actions that it is not important to have real-world job experience to become a political leader in America and then indeed becomes a political leader in America, it exposes the political two-party system as dangerously broken.  Our universe speaks to us loudest between the lines.  Mr. Obama speaks loudly by default betraying a man of questionable character, intellectual integrity, or possessing unconscionable arrogance built on false self-esteem.

The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary. 

—Vince Lombardi

This once reluctant Poet dreamed of doing something. Passion created an unmistakable body of work in Arts & Letters exemplifying Sagittarius the now Spiritual Thinker.  I philosophize.  I was built to do something.  One hopes Hillary Clinton dreamed to do something and not to be the first female U.S. President. Our universe builds you accordingly.  Becoming the first African-American U.S. President is not working out so well for Obama as he also became perhaps the worst U.S. President ever and easily the most hated.  Be careful what you wish for in our dangerous universe, my friends.  To be something in America does not always require work and doing the work puts you in good favor with our universe and this feminine force of a planet.

Any man or woman (I differ here on some Matriarchs) working as or wishing to work as a political leader without real-world job experience must never be allowed to become a political leader in America as it corrupts the moral fiber of our nation setting the universe itself against us.  Obama wounds the nation deeply in many ways and perhaps the main way manifests like a black cloud over the nation or an atmosphere of doom from his mere presence as a world leader of little to no merit. 

"Assuming 2.67% RGDP growth for 2016, Obama will leave office having produced an average of 1.55% growth. This would place his presidency fourth from the bottom of the list of 39*, above only those of Herbert Hoover (-5.65%), Andrew Johnson (-0.70%) and Theodore Roosevelt (1.41%)"  —Louis Woodhill, Economist

When pretense becomes philosophy, monsters hide in plain sight.

The Spiritual Loophole 2.0

Cosmic Connections

Pagan religions have always been an alternate choice in the quest for spirituality, although Paganism is really not a religion in my opinion.  Nevertheless, if one did seek out a major religion to answer an interest or need in spirituality it was more than likely that the search would end with the particular religion chosen. That is to say, the quest for truth and growth would end. All religions claim to be the correct religion and one need go no further according to the dogma of each. In effect, one would fine spirituality at the price of intellectual integrity and growth. 

Religion necessitates giving up intellectual integrity at some point in favor of faith. Your intellect becomes overwhelmed by spirituality depending on how much of your intellect or ability to reason is given over to religious faith. Such is what all religions ask of their followers at some point.
 
Just because one does not acknowledge spirituality within does not mean it is not there. Spirituality can be as little as looking up at a dark star-filled sky with awe and wonder to fanaticism willing to die or kill for religion. Spirituality is the path to a higher consciousness and enlightenment. Enlightenment is what humanity needs individually to evolve and humanity for the most part has been devolving. A higher consciousness is the calling of humanity and some of you have not been listening. Humans hear and experience this calling differently. We all have a place in this world and it is found easily through spirituality.

Carl Sagan

Spirituality I speak of here includes religion as religion comes under a form of spirituality. Spirituality may be a general awareness and consciousness of oneself in perspective to the universe whereas religion spells out your connection to the universe in dogma influenced quite usually by guilt, fear, and eternal happiness after death. Spirituality may recognize or seek the divine in oneself, the opposite sex, nature, or the universe. Religion is an end to a means whereas spirituality is a means to an end. Furthermore, that which is the end of spirituality may be never-ending.

I am inclined to liken humans to special musical instruments when it comes to spirituality. Spirituality is not easily understood and if someone comes along and hits the right notes in a person experiencing a need for spirituality yet lacks reason as an ideal, such a person will follow a Pied Piper of Metaphysical Music like a junkie follows a drug pusher.

Something like music might hit the right notes making a person tap their feet, dance, sing, or cry. Such is spirituality on a low level and specific to each individual. We know this as inspiration. Inspiration is a type of spirituality and depending on who is inspired and how spiritual that person is and aware of such spirituality will determine the product of such inspiration. Some people may experience spirituality only as a warm uplifting feeling and nothing more.

The world is magic.  Science is but an insipid style of sorcery. 

-Rudy Rucker

If one vehemently denies spirituality then that person is cut off from oneself and evolving. Your achievements and happiness are limited. What happened at the end of Sir Isaac Newton’s life? He reached his limit intellectually it would appear. Perhaps intrinsically he knew that the next step was through spirituality. Unfortunately for him, he was undone by the religion of his time and that would have been The Catholic Church. One now has to wonder what such a great mind would have achieved given the right path to his inherent need for spirituality? Great thinkers and scientists of today continue to deny their spirituality by erroneously thinking that it has something to do with religion. Those scientists who choose religion as a means of satiating the need for spirituality are necessarily limited in any intellectual growth and achievements in direct ratio to how much reason they shelve in favor of faith. Religion falls under spirituality and not the other way around. Since religion dominates culture and politics and has been the greatest enemy to science, scientists and great thinkers of today are quite logical in dismissing their natural need for spirituality.  Logical conclusions are not always rational (see Feminism).  Scientists will now discover that dismissing spirituality was not a rational decision. Like Newton, the science community, and all non-believers will only go so far intellectually without acknowledging and feeding their inherent need for spirituality.

Scientism is belief in the universal applicability of the scientific method and approach, and the view that empirical science constitutes the most authoritative worldview or most valuable part of human learning to the exclusion of other viewpoints.

                                                                                   --Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia

Awareness and seeking a higher awareness is key to human evolution. Such explains the gap in the world between ethics and science. It also explains why human evolution has virtually ceased. Science can study ethics, awareness, and sexual love. That is about all science can do in such areas and any type of applied science in such fields will fail or make matters worse. Science alone cannot move humanity up the evolutionary scale any further. Science is of little use in dealing with the dark abyss threatening to engulf all of humanity today called infertility. Spirituality and awareness hold part of the answer to extinction and must be experienced and shared. Awareness cannot be exploited for greed and power and that is why the patriarch matrix is not interested in attaining a higher consciousness. It at once explains why leaders of humanity continue to be a primitive species racing toward extinction and the continuation of religion.

As stated previously, spirituality is not easily understood. Science would say that the field is completely subjective if not mystical. Science turns a blind eye to anything it cannot prove beyond a reasonable doubt. Such is science in the patriarch matrix. Life is an event of reasonable doubts and science must grow up and leave the snobbery at home if it is to continue with a measure of respect. Because spirituality is not easily understood and humans need spirituality even if they do not know why, they can be taken advantage of by men who know that the vagaries of religion offer riches and power to the man who knows how to manipulate emotions and/or spirituality in the right people. They exploit what I have come to call the 'Spiritual Loophole' of humanity. 

Any sufficiently advance technology is indistinguishable from magic. 

 -Arthur C. Clarke

Humans want and need spirituality as a matter of survival and evolution. However, because they do not understand spirituality it leaves them vulnerable to fakes, frauds, and criminals, and even their own existential inconsistencies. Also, since there are many paths to spirituality and a higher consciousness, some humans find spirituality and a higher consciousness but never gain enlightenment because the path chosen is limited. If spirituality was well understood then there would not be several opposing religions and science would not be a snob to an integral part of humanity. Furthermore, this integral part of humanity would not be under the control of charlatans, fools, and criminals that make up a majority of religious clergy. An integral element of human survival and evolution is misunderstood to the point of exploitation by good intentions or bad and the cycle is repeated ad infinitum. Such defines the spiritual loophole of humanity.
