In the three years since I originally wrote on this subject, a TON of stuff has happened... and none of it bodes well for Pagantry... or Humanity in general.
1) We have changed regiemes, from a hawkish war-mongering, control-addicted group of megalomaniacs bent on destruction of the will of the American people, to a group of facist, governmental-control-addicted, economy-wrecking, industry-intolerant racketeers, with a leader that fancies himself as a newly-proclaimed god. Governmental control of every aspect of life, already Draconian under Bush Jr., has become nearly unbearable under the current regieme. Rights guaranteed by the Constitution have been sullied, stripped, watered-down, or outright taken away by a gang of bureaucratic goons bent on installing an American version of the Soviet Socialist Republic, complete with total control of thought, movement, speech, you name it...
Government, already bloated under Bush Jr., has exploded in growth. Not the state and local government... no, that is being scaled back en masse due to budgets that have dried up to nothing... all because of states now having to pay back to the globalista bankers who forced the states to buy into much the same bogus junk derivaties that tanked the housing market. And where does your tax money go? Certainly not to state and local programs... they go to pay interest to the same banks that comprise the Federal Reserve System... the very same system that has brought America to its' knees by replacing the Dollar with its' own version, backed by naught but thin air (at best).
With no option for growth in this country, industry has creaked to a halt. Because of the massive oil rig incident in the Gulf of Mexico, the US Government has called for a moratorium on deep-water drilling... which has caused, as of this morning, no less than three deep-drilling rigs to fold up shop and head for more palatable waters. 'If you can't make money, why be here?' is their thinking, and the current regieme, led by the Indonesian Socialist, does nothing but what the global bankers tell him to.
2) With zero industry, comes zero opportunity... and with zero opportunity comes unlimited apathy. Society has atrophied in its' mental growth, thanks to a massive propaganda barrage in the mainstream media. Everywhere you look, the message of "We are the Government and we will tell you how to think, where you can go, and how much you can have in your pantry." Notice that there are more messages from Federal agencies on your television and radio... on billboards... on the sides of buses... even on food packaging. The messages are being pounded into our already-weakened brains: Comply or die!
3) Our minds are being polluted with images of false greatness on a continual basis. Our new role models have nothing to do with exemplary character... no, we are given to worship the antics of washed-up, drug-addled B-list celebrities... we follow the trumped-up carnival of an icon of sport changing teams... we gorge ourselves on meaningless media manipulations of all style and zero substance. And now, we can have all this wonderful mind-cancer delivered to us on our personal tracking devices! Oh, the joy! Oh, the rapture!
4) While our minds are being polluted, our bodies are being ravaged by the foods that we consume. If anyone has ever investigated the Codex Alimentaria (Google it, peoples...), they will recoil in horror at how our basic grains and foodstuffs are being genetically manipulated to bring about sterilization of the populace, if not worse. Our water is contaminated by a labelled rat-poison (sodium flouride) in the name of having better teeth. Personally I would rather have holes in my teeth than holes in my brain, wouldn't you? If you'd rather quash your thirst, there's always the diet drinks, which contain Aspartame... another admitted poison... or, if you choose the sugared variety of drinkage, it is laden with high-fructose corn syrup... and it is now coming to light that HFCS may contain traces of mercury within it (from the pesticides and fertilizers used in the growing of the base corn). "Oh, I just want a piece of gum, then!" Good luck finding a chewing gum that does not contain Aspartame (or NutraSweet, as it has been branded)... and Sucralose? Well, it may be "made from sugar" but it is in a molecular configuration that the human body does not know how to digest! So the residue just sits there, undigestable and unpassable. And I won't even go into the forced replacement of natural salt (sodium chloride) with a mix of sodium silicitate (a derivative of silicon, which can and will destroy the kidney function)...
Do you sense the frustration here? What is being done to food in the US is illegal almost anywhere else in the world!
What are the people doing about it? Not a damn thing.
I recently read somewhere that somewhere between 5 and 10% of the people in this country are capable of sustaining themselves with their own crop and produce growings. What's going to happen to them when, for some reason, the food supply is cut off? I leave that to your imagination.
It is no wonder that the people of this country have let themselves become slaves to the Government master. Their will to think for themselves has been stripped from them... they no longer care what happens to those around them... and any group that deigns to attempt to wrest control back from the Governmental hydra gets hit with even more social distractions.
Where does this leave the Pagan community? It is a blessing and a curse: the blessing is that we have, within us, our Divinity Within to guide us clear of many (if not all) of the social distractions - the curse being that we may have nobody to bring along with us into the (relative) safety of our Temples, for they are all either too dumbed-down by the general society or unwilling to release themselves from the iron fist of familiarity and societal norm.
Truly a saddening thing, my Brothers and Sisters.
I will write later on possible alternatives, Goddess willing.
May we live to survive another dawn...
