One Nation Under Law

Inconceivable, with Liturgy and justification for all.

The story of my life starts with my awareness that nothing I saw made much sense. I just couldn't see a happy ending. There was an observable pointlessness. Although at the age of eight or so I really wouldn't have used words like this. The sense was that this world wasn't going to end well. It wasn't heading anywhere. That's what it was in a nutshell. It was going nowhere.

One of the real sore spots was the rules. People kept telling me to do things. I kept asking why. They kept saying things like, "that's what people do..." or the dreaded, "because I said so...". Let's just say that as far as I was concerned there was no good reason for me to follow any of these rules. The real reason that I was being asked, no commanded, to follow these rules was not really clear to the people giving the orders. They couldn't tell me, because they didn't know. When they did attempt to give me the reasons, as they understood them, I was always left with the same underlying feeling of, "sorry but that doesn't add up to anything". This was the beginning of my walk in society. My "knowing" that it would end badly. It had to. Because it's not designed to go anywhere. It could only end in - nothing. Nothing has changed.

So I went on from confrontation to confrontation. Here's a rule that I didn't get: respect your elders. Look around for the origin of that. You'll find that it comes out of indigenous settings where the ritual and stories are passed along from generation to generation by the elders of the community. The only relationship our forefathers had with the indigenous tribes was to kill them or corrupt them - for profit. They did it then, they are doing it today. Right now. In our society it means, coercion. It has nothing to do with anything else. It's just the big older children (adults) trying to make the small people (kids) obey them, or leave them alone. Or so the "grown ups" be treated "like they want to be treated" without the inconvenience of deserving it. As far as I know this collective life of law started with the old testament bible. Someone came up with the "God Decree" and it's just gotten increasingly stupid with each generation.

The culmination of this obsession with telling people what to do came when a branch of this insidious creation granted the corporation the rights of a person. Sometimes we have thoughts and feelings about things and don't no where we got them. One of these would be our ideas about judges. Judges are just the upper echelon in the life of law. They aren't necessarily wise or just. They don't even have to be smart. With the passing of the law concerning the corporation it came to pass that you can hold a seat on the supreme court and be, not just dumb but, insane. Anyone in there right mind who was approached with this "corporate" idea would immediately, without hesitation, show the petitioner to the door. If you don't you're either an idiot or a crook. Who were these petitioners? That's right, lawyers.

One of the big failings of law is that it doesn't protect anyone from anything. It doesn't insure a society of safety or sanity, peace or freedom. In fact, if one looks at the history of society and the history of law, I'd think it would be clear that it is a failed system. In the long run, it doesn't help. That one rule of law concerning the corporation meant that a few goofballs could ruin the lives of millions. Including those whose lives it was written to enhance. The law was written to protect corporations from common sense. In fact the idea of law itself is the replacement of common sense. It has done this, one thing, to perfection. Not only is there a ever increasing lack of common decency and judgment but common sense has vanished completely. Sense has become compartmentalized. It's no longer common. There is no sign of it anywhere. There are those who have good sense, it's just not common to the society. The elders are gone. We are a nation whose only tradition is that we take possession of things under the system of law. If a law prohibits the acquisition then the law is changed or a law is written.

This one event, the corporate rights law, shows that, as a system, it's flawed. There is no fixing a flawed system. The system is what you start with. Everything that follows are results. If you want different results you have to get a different system. There is no other way. If we wanted to make a good law it's not all that tough. It could be written like this - Do unto others, as you would have others do unto you. Now this could never really be a law. It is to close to common sense. Also we would have to try and figure out a way to enforce it and then it would just start the whole process up again and in a few generations we be as balled up as we are now. Law doesn't work for people ( unless you're a corporation ). So what does? What is it we need to do? We need to do something and we need to do it now. We need to do it "commonly". That means we need to do it as one. At once. Meaning as one movement at the same time. The first thing we must do is break the law. Not commit a singular criminal act. Break the tyranny of law. Revolt with a unanimous and resounding - No More. No more stupidity. No more greed. No more insanity. No more rulers and ruled. No more armies in sheep's clothing. No more patrioticide. No more lies.

The reign of law must end. Either that or we just take every thing we hold dear and turn it in, now. We might as well get it over with. We either do it voluntarily or we do it when we're told to - under the law - that will be written. We already live without freedom, safety, peace of mind, good health. The list is long. We don't even have the right to ownership. If you don't believe this stop paying the money that the law requires and see who really has ownership. Ownership will revert back to the cartel set up "Under the Law" to control every possession known to man. Even things "common sense" would never think of as a possession. Like life. Yes there are laws that made it possible for an insane person to get a patent on a life form. Common sense laughed at the idea. Law prevailed. The life we dreamed about is gone. It will never come back. The past is indeed lost to us. There is no way to reroute the ship. We have to board a different ship. We will have to come up with a new dream. A common dream that will re-establish our common sense. The re-emergence of common sense will overwhelm law. Common sense is not dead. Like all ideas it can't die. It is in the dormant phase of the inactive idea. We can activate it and we should. It's a good idea. Unlike the idea of law.
