Note that the "main stream" of media for lemmings and Orwell's vision of Big Brother staring down from a Tube seemed to be close at hand... at least until the media shattered into a thousand "you"tubes and so on. The scary part, one day it will probably all be unified into something like global omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience and man will emerge from the bowels of the body politic to sit at the top of the matrix of information and play pretend about being the Most High. As a matter of technique and manipulation, it seems that he may be created in the image of his creator and will probably play pretend about being like a fake key or form of sacrifice to open the matrix. Kool Aid, anyone?
Ironically, the Most High was already here among the lowly to tell us that the pyramid scheme type of matrix or paradise like prison for consciousness isn't the be all, end all of everything that is. It still has remnants of the good, yet there are scorpions in it symbolically and literally too.
Hmmm.. not to be cryptic but maybe God loves some of His prison guards for paradise more than some higher orders of beings and rulers that were created first in the order of things? He wouldn't have to, you know. He could allow any lower order of being to be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter for higher orders of being just like he allows people to sacrifice animals. We have no problem with one, yet do with the other. Imagine that!
People will probably imagine that they could create a world without the pattern of bloody sacrifices or that they could do better. Yet here is what people would probably create... an infinitely boring world of a billion asteroids colliding based on "purely" physical laws without consciousness, will or relationships wrought by the impact of sentience and language. And what a purely perfect world a lot of rocks colliding with each other would be without us in it? Imagine that.
No more murder, no more rape, no more sin, etc... yet no more moments of consciousness, no more love and no more redemption among the billions of rocks either. I think I'll take a world of redemption and the possibility of love being expressed by various techniques among human beings.
Especially given that for all we know as low as we are, it's all that can be.
Random note, with respect to symbolic forms of consciousness vs. rocks:
How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?Moses probably would have lived a long time, too... it's not like his body was falling apart anytime soon, I suspect. So don't strike the symbolic Rock physically if you're given the ability to get a handle on the tale of a symbolically slithering snake to use like a solid rod? The possibilities of the physical power of "handling" or getting your hands on a ruling and measuring rod in the matrix of information may have corrupted even one of the greatest prophets in the history of the world, it would seem? (Apparently there was still a fight over the body of Moses, though. Turns out some can't be encrypted in the "crypt" of the grave longer than three days, probably... ) I don't know, I'm probably just imagining things in my own way but there do seem to be patterns of information there that are often relevant given that everything is more like a matrix of information that cannot be totally reduced to rocks and dust to this day. (You were imagining that it is all "purely" physical?)
For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
....
And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying, Get thee up into this mountain Abarim... And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people: Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of MeribahKadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel. ...thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
In any event... what luck for the "rulers" trying to rule and measure others that people often don't even try to rule themselves or begin the process of trying to understand language or reading the Word for themselves. Language is in their DNA, yet they don't read?
Rock on, rockstars...
