Well of course I am conservative. I was writing about the mad ones, the annoyed conservatives for which there are plenty.

Yes, but Jesus is represented in the holy spirit within us and it is it that cleans us and makes us sinless eventually. Takes time with most people.

I am not the Meatloaf. My name was already taken when I registered and I’d been to a concert ... therefore meatloaf with a small m.

I ordered three copies of this book a couple of days ago. One for hubby and I, and a copy each for our two daughters and our son-in-laws. I expect this book to be the best thing ever to come from Roy Masters. He’s more than “onto something” with it because it’s obvious to me that in this modern world we are all stressed into being on “auto pilot.”

Above this race of men stands an immense and tutelary power, which takes upon itself alone to secure their gratifications and to watch over their fate. That power is absolute, minute, regular, provident and mild. It would be like the authority of a parent if, like that authority, its object was to prepare men for manhood; but it seeks, on the contrary, to keep them in perpetual childhood: it is well content that the people should rejoice, provided they think of nothing but rejoicing...It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd...Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrial animals of which the government is the shepherd.

Americans are hypnotized to one degree or another and it is irritations that motivate, that is the fuel of that happiness robbing hypnosis.

Yes, I do use the mental-observational, “meditation” at least twice a day, and have been committed to doing so for a couple of years, though shamefully I didn’t commit for a few decades of supporting the FHU financially! Pitiful example of hypocrisy, wasn’t it?

I hope to pick-up a copy of the Readers Digest to see how the full-page ad is worded and the book, presented. Have any of you seen it, yet?
