ENLIGHTENMENT

(08,20,2020) Enlightenment is the goal for which we all strive to achieve! If ever there was a time when the most dire circumstances demanded the need for a globally enlightened perception, that time is now! Enlightenment is bestowed upon us in many ways. There are those of us who seek it for our whole lives. The fortunate ones, who find it, are eventually rewarded with peace of mind. Others seem to accomplish that goal only on their death bed! Tragically, many have died without ever having had a chance. However, in a time of reckoning, good people make the right choice! It was foretold that enlightenment would come with the ‘day of reckoning’. That day is upon us! In America, the P.O.T.A.S. (President Of The American Supremacists) is setting the stage for the battle between good and evil. Enlightened people, good people, who love God, will help to win that battle. The only god in whom the P.O.T.A.S. has ever placed any faith, is himself! To my knowledge, no other person, in the history of the planet, has ever claimed to be without sin. But, the P.O.T.A.S. has declared that he has never done anything wrong for which he should ask God’s forgiveness. In fact, he takes the matter one step further by declaring, “They’re calling me the ‘chosen one’. I like that,” he says with a smirk. Does the word ‘anti-Christ’ come to mind? I feel like I’m living in a horror film such as ‘Damien’ or Omen’. Even though the pope is deemed infallible, I don’t think that he would claim to have ever been without sin. And today’s pope would be the first to admit that men have long used religion for political advantage. He is the most enlightened pope in the long history of the church. The P.O.T.A.S. uses religious people to divide the American country, making such ridiculous statements as,”The democrats hate God. They want to hurt God.” He must be referring to himself, because he does not believe in any other god. Even Emperor Constantine, when he made himself pope, back in the fourth century A.D., was attempting to unite the people and their religions, not divide them as the P.O.T.A.S. is doing. The P.O.T.A.S. has declared that he can do no wrong. Sound familiar? While admittedly taking no ‘responsibility’ for any of the tragic events taking place in his country, i.e.: systemic racism, a rampant virus, outright corruption and obstruction of justice, to name but a few, the P.O.T.A.S. claims to have done only the good, great and greatest things for the country. The true fact of the matter is that there are many attributes of the P.O.T.A.S. for which he can claim to be the greatest. The P.O.T.A.S. is the greatest: liar, cheat, conman, egotist, narcissist, misogynist, miser and thief. He is also most envious of Barrack Obama and jealous of the accolades that are bestowed upon the former P.O.T.U.S. who was also one of the greatest presidents of the United States. It seems to me that most of the ‘seven deadly sins’ fall into the above mentioned category. The day has come for the people of America to stand up for righteousness. Those who have had their eyes opened, will do the right thing, and set things straight again. All it takes is a united effort to say,”We deserve a change for the better!” It is not too late! It is possible to set the environment back on a course of ‘healing’ or, at least, slow down the advance of self-destruction. An enlightened people can have a better health system. There can be preventive measures put into place, such as those that Obama’s administration had done, that would forestall a global pandemic and control it; the same sort of plan that the P.O.T.A.S. threw out. No one need go hungry! Equality for all is a global right. A global community, working together, can achieve great things without the presence of racism, bigotry or malice of any kind. Just think of the possibility! Jesus emphasized one ‘golden rule’ which is,”Love thy neighbour as one loves thyself”! To do so, one must become enlightened and capable of showing empathy!
