&lt;p&gt;I still think it’s a great game that brings humanity together. What’s the harm in that? So we worship a few false gods… shite happens!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have nothing against the Sun or Isis or even serpents. They’re just being used symbolically to make the parasites appear attractive. Ritual worship is the touchy subject because that’s when you’re channeling sexual or emotional or spiritual energy to someone or something outside of yourself, and that’s when it can be misappropriated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As fascinating as Matthew’s insights are, I don’t buy into his whole victim attitude, because the energy of the Universe is unlimited. So shine your light and enjoy the game. It’s all good.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://tumbldown.com/post/715323779</link><guid>http://tumbldown.com/post/715323779</guid><pubDate>Sat, 19 Jun 2010 12:15:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>"No two wormholes are alike.

&lt;i&gt;Gabriel, cause this one to understand the apparition.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Understand, son of Adam, &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;i&gt;for at the time of the end, the vision.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dear Friends,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Those of you who listen with your heart. Who greet me without expectation. Who brush past, leaving petals of grace for me and others like you and me, to sense, to notice, to accept, to acclaim.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am afraid I have spent too long speaking the language of normals. I have forgotten the old language. The one I was born with. The one that taught me how to sing the holy. The one that showed me the infinite in a grain of sand, well, actually, the infinite in the grain of an oak table in the alcove of my kitchen at age 11.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After 42 years on this planet, the long tide has reached up and pulled me out of line, the lineage I birthed into. I always thought I was trying to fit in with them. I just realized I was trying to break free of them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With love. I dare say, I do this with love. For myself foremost. They are paddling in a sea with forks. I have boarded an ocean liner filled with those who have eyes to see me. ME.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have no idea what any of this means friends. I only type what my fingers reach for. It’s an intricate dance. God’s lips to my fingertips? Something whispers to me. Urgently. Telling me I must let you know that I have arrived.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Brothers and sisters, I am here.&lt;/p&gt;

Paintings from the Byzantine court show the emperor flanked by beardless men, understood to be eunuchs. Angels in the religious art from about the same time show them as beardless entities, flanking God in a similar fashion.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The prime task of angels in the Christian tradition is to sing the praises of the Lord. Angels are also emissaries of God, the Lord’s trusted messengers, just as eunuchs were messengers for Byzantine emperors.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Angels are non-reproductive. Often angels are depicted as taller than mortals. When we say that someone has an “angelic” voice, we think of a higher pitch and a softer voice than that of adult men. All of these traits characterize eunuchs who were castrated before puberty.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If a successful kingdom on Earth could only be maintained with the help of eunuchs, isn’t it logical that a kingdom in Heaven must have a similar class of citizens?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Indeed, the link between eunuchs and angels was so strong that urban myths from Constantinople occasionally confused the two. Stories tell of an angel walking among humans and being mistaken for a court eunuch. Others recount how a court eunuch was mistaken for an angel.”&lt;/p&gt;

The generation of words is an expression of electrical energy… &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The meaning of a word… is contingent upon the energy with which it’s endowed by the speaker… &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now, I don’t want to understand [the mind of God], I want to testify to it. I believe that we are all literally part of the mind of God, and that our sense of ourselves as separate is an illusion. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And therefore when we communicate with each other - as a function of an exchange of energy - we understand, not because of the inherent content of the words, but because of how that energy flows.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;David Milch (producer of John from Cincinnati),  &lt;a href="http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2005/02/14/050214fa_fact_singer?currentPage=all"&gt;newyorker.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://tumbldown.com/post/266924728</link><guid>http://tumbldown.com/post/266924728</guid><pubDate>Wed, 02 Dec 2009 19:53:00 -0500</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
