Well, it occurs to me that to run a city you need to have 3 main forces working in tandem.  First comes the sheriff, to smack down people that go out of control, then comes the judge, to "explain" things that are obvious, then comes the druglord, to provide fresh bodies for the windmill of blood. 

Yes, it seems that these have always been the 3 departments that require the most use of force.  Everything else, like budget directors, city council representatives, mayors, media, football players, even oil barons, ALL can be controlled as long as you have these 3 departments in tow. 

Again adding to the fact that might is right.  Now it doesn't HAVE to be that way, but it's sobering to know and indeed useful to know that all the things we do happen in a mathematical fashion.  So to be civilized we have to STOP doing what comes natural.  Might is right is what nature intended.  Indeed it is what the Jews profess with some few exceptions listed in the 10 commandments HAH! So to being selfish is in line with following the natural order. 

All the rest of the world follows the natural order. 

Indeed they HAVE TO because we sit at the top and we ain't letting our own sense of charity expose us to 10 years of war when the whole time the guy we were looking for was in the center of their city in a fenced two story building...  well... we ain't gonna let it happen again.  Hmmf.

So we have to stop people from their use of controlling power, but only here in America.
It disturbs me that we call ourselves the US.  We are the US of A.  I heard the other day the Mexican President call his nation the US of M.  So mix that around in your mind for a bit.  What's our REAL name? 

Use of force invites retaliation. 

So does harassment beget violence?  Does violence beget retribution and vengeance?  Does vengeance lead to war?  You see, it's an escalation.  One little thing draws the other which draws the overwhelming other and eventually we find out who REALLY has the connections.  Soon after that we find a body. 

Well it's our job as civilized beings to stop that escalation.  When people talk about vigilance, THIS is what they mean.  Sheriffs, Judges and druglords all have a equally useful role in society but to maintain society civilized, you have to forgive.  YOU have to be able to DO what everyone doesn't want you to.  YOU have to be MORE cognizant of the good of society over the good of your specific department of people or role. 

So it's because they have this relationship in the use of force that I deem them GODS.  Because noone else is allowed to use force without falling under the purview of one of these 3 departments of power. 

Zeus is the sheriff.  If you act out and stomp a little too tough around your neighborhood, here come bolts of lightning to quiet you down.

Hades is the druglord.  If you stop being useful to society, here comes help to "help" you on your way. 

Neptune is the judge.  Confusion and support allow him to manage the environment to help or hinder the other two usually by his firm hold of their balls. 

You can watch Wrath of the Titans and as you notice what they face you kind of get the reality of what they face... constant anagonistic action.  Titans, are like other nations, the size of which would crush us if we could not get our own might around them.

People of different beliefs are different from us.  People of a different language are "obviously" different.  But in no other way should people be separate.  These different people are of a different nation, by definition they are foreign. 

OUR beliefs begin and end with the Bible. OUR language is English.  It's just that simple.  Now I don't mean we don't possess the charity to allow other people to visit and speak their minds but when you think of the nation that we are going to leave behind, we should give THESE TWO THINGS the most attention. 

The bible was meant to be a collection of stories that make us understand what order is.  When Humpty Dumpty has a great fall, we don't think there was a real man that fell off a wall, but we get the fact that being too selfish or gluttonous leads to a loss of some sort. 

Fact is I have been wondering that about myself, if all the king's horses and men can't put ME back together again.  Heh, it's all about me.

So it is with the Bible.  Read it and teach it to your children and remember that people need examples to understand what you mean.  That's why I use popular movies to explain stuff because more people have watched Star Wars than know the Bible stories, so use that.  But all children should be able to say prayers and pledge their allegiance and even sing a hymn or two because they are of OUR nation and in this nation in GOD we trust.  Children can be free to be as different as they want once they are older but not before they are independent. 

Teach them that, not all children have parents, not all children have food, not all children have the trust that is second nature to good people.  Guard against people that are out of control but be charitable, provide seeds of knowledge and let them aspire to be trustworthy.  Jesus said that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him one or something like that.  So tell people how you met your wife because finding a good woman is hard.  Tell people how long it took to fix your car because everyone needs to know that your uncle is the only one that can fix a car.  Tell people how you make your money, or prepare a response, because we don't get by in the world by using people, we get by by trusting... and if they ask you more in depth questions well it's time to plead the fifth.

I can NOT underestimate to YOU PEOPLE the need to plead the fifth in some cases.  Police officers understand the fifth, what they don't handle too well is people lying to their faces. 

WHAT I DON'T HANDLE TOO WELL IS PEOPLE TRAPPING ME AT THE DRIVE THRU!

Ok sidetracked, wow, am I still one of the good guys?  Hmmf.   Ok well what I meant to say is that a lack of trust is rather  insulting to someone that is not used to it.  Nevertheless don't go chasing people you don't know too well and expect them to treat you like your family does.  You will get your feelings hurt.  On the upside these hurtful people seem to shine and beam next to your BORING family.  Like a moth to a flame I guess.

This brings me to another point.  I always wondered what the significanse of the moth was.  It was in Silence of the Lambs.  It was in that Mothman movie.  It occurs over and over in serial killer movies but I just didn't get how a killer was like a moth. 

Well now I get it because one time I was sitting there watching a fire and people were advising me to not get to close to the fire but I told them that "the fire is so beautiful". 

So mothmen are basically these people that aren't part of the fire, but they get too close to the fire.  They are on their own. 

Ok, WAY BACK THERE, I was saying something about belief and language and that is what I will end on.  Everyone in these three depts should carry a Bible and speak English. Why? Because you need to justify, in a way that your subordinates understand like examples from the Bible or even by using Humpty Dumpty, the reason that your actions are righteous.  You might think that druglords are not righteous but you will find as the ranks go up and you start speaking to captains and generals or whatever, that like in most things, the leaders are the most trustworthy.
