Epilepsy and the origins of monotheism

"There has long been a recognized association between monotheism and the desert’s all-powerful sun, as there is between polytheism and the lush diversity of sun-shaded forests. And it seems that epilepsy is another component of the development and spread of the idea of the One God.

"If only they’d had shades in those days, think how much grief we could have avoided!"

Plundering-class criminals

"Romney's ruling class contempt for his economic inferiors views us as a clutch of parasitic layabouts.

"Obama's policies manifested Romney’s privileged class view of the world when he "bailed out the true parasites of the present order, and has all but turned his back on the so-called 47 percent."

Origins - Moving Art™

Over eons of time, birthed from deep sea waters, evolved into splendid diversity, we enjoy the gifts of participating in many wonders of what time and space does in its natural flow of life and living. Each day creates a new opportunity to

use all our senses to soak in the universe, full of wonder. Sitting in my garden with all the wildlife scampering and flittering around me, I feel profound gratitude to be alive and a part of all of this.

Louie Schwartzberg at Bioneers Conference 2011 - Moving Art™ -

Determination: Watching salmon struggling to master falling water to get to its spawning gravels, the tiny seeds sprouting to become massive trees, slime mold growing betwen cracks and over rocks, wood and vegetation, all attest to the determination to live and become part of this magnificent universe. 

Evolution: Knowing life, evolving from single cell organisms into vast varieties we know today, creating life as we know it. 

Vision: Understanding human beings, developing into bodies and minds for good and ill, have the capacity to protect and care for our planet, or to destroy life as we know it.

Greg, you give me bone to chew on when you wrote, "Occupy Wall ST was, to me, a better place for the 'in you face' aspects of interaction for (peaceful) change."
Will people who should read and hear the strident voice go to "Occupy"?Thanks for calling this option to my attention.

Richard Wolff - The Call For a New Capitalism

Wolff describes how our economic system developed, how it changed over time, and defines Booms and Busts. Capitalism creates great wealth and great poverty. Some don't wan't to recognize this but denying and deluding oneself does not change what is real.
