Questions, So Many Questions, and Somewhere There are Answers I Must Find*
If Hitler was the architect/ leader of the THIRD Reich, and -reich is the German suffix for plenty, what were the FIRST and SECOND Reichs, or plentiful/bountiful periods in German History?
Could 2021 be the year when we get Universal Health Care in the USA? The majority of our allies, as we are constantly reminded by their elites, already have such systems. We in the USA have a Novel Coronavirus, Heart diseases, and Cancers that we KNOW for a certainty do not discriminate based on skin color, socioeconomic status or gender/sexual expression. Is the United States that genocidal, homicidal, and or suicidal that it will continue to NEEDLESSLY CANNIBALIZE ITSELF?
YES, in case you are confused, I am implying in that last sentence that the USA specifically is choosing insane behaviors on such a massive scale that effective treatment now requires more trained and licensed/SUPERVISED mental health professionals than we currently have to meet the overwhelming need. On yet another Sabbath weekend, there is one and only one comparatively small and fully integrated (diverse) global spiritual community headquartered in one of America's Original Thirteen Colonies that has consistently brought attention to global human needs.
As much as I am eternally THANKFUL AND GRATEFUL for their ministry, courageousness, and empathy forged in the depths of some very dark and frankly terrifying and horrific lived experiences, their best efforts are insufficient to turn the rest of the global ecumenical faith-based "Titanic" away from the metaphorical "Iceberg" of Cannibalistic Corporate Cannibalism.
Our planet has, for reasons I still do not understand, come to us fully equipped with the human and natural resources to thrive a in a seamless symbiosis between all species on what appears as one BIG BLUE-WHITE-BROWN marble when photographed by the elite hoi polloi as they ride into space repeatedly in the Twenty-first Century. It makes absolutely no sense... it HAS NEVER IN HUMAN HISTORY MADE ANY SENSE that the only reason we exist is that children and families have no other recourse but to suffer and die when we know that their suffering and death has always been preventable. When it does happen, we all know that families must be supported in working together so that the dying may die in dignity, in peace, and basically leave Planet Earth better ( in better ways, btw) than they probably arrived.
Having said these things it grieves me that too many functionally illiterate folks cannot read or comprehend these words as written. Too many functionally illiterate people will go to self-identified temples and places of worship and sanctuary at least once every week blindly trusting and relying upon the literacy and fluency of their pastors, rabbis, ministers, spiritual leaders, imams, choral directors, worship leaders and other names for Educational Leader-Influencers I do not know. They will spend anywhere from 1 hour or much more receiving human-manufactured/ created curated lesson plans, fine arts, and performing arts presentations designed to be provocative, triggering, and emotional/ passionate. But as we have seen throughout the entirety of recorded history of pedagogy and practice, reliance on a single source to meet all of your literacy needs makes sustaining a representative democracy as described in our existing governance documents impossible.
