THE WRONG THING

HOW NOT TO HAVE PEACE IN THE WORLD

What is wrong in Littleton, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Palestine, Ireland, China, Russia, India, Congo, Pakistan, Indonesia, Philippines, Columbia, Somalia, USA, Israel, Iran, - (add your own here).

With our world in disarray and at war with itself, we must ask ourselves the big question, WHY?

If you want peace in the world and in your own life, you must eliminate those things which bring confusion, hostility, turmoil and trouble to the earth. You must learn to listen to reason. You must learn to accept evidence which is provable and reject those things which are untrue and which are against our own humanity. You must learn to use the mind and brain with which nature has so graciously endowed you. You must learn to compromise.

The major portion of ALL our troubles rest in our stupid herding instincts (following the leader) and in our quest to obtain SOMETHING FOR NOTHING!

We wish to be knowledgeable and intelligent without studying. We wish to be wise and educated without learning how to think honestly. We wish to be rich without working and planning for it. We wish to be healthy without practicing the healthy things. We wish to be happy without doing those things which produce happiness in our own life, our neighbor's and in the life of our nation and world. We wish to live forever without endowing our science with the tools it needs to increase our own life span. We wish for a world with plenty of room for everyone, but we over populate like a bunch of rabbits and rats. We wish to enjoy nature, but we pollute it, cut it down, bulldoze it away and pave it over. I hope you see the point without more examples.

Now, look at the one THING which teaches us all these negative and destructive attitudes listed above. Look at the only THING which is destroying our world and our civilization. Let us analyze this THING which is destroying both our personal lives and the peace and tranquility which our world so desperately wants and needs.

This THING teaches us we can be intelligent and knowledgeable without studying the facts. It teaches us we can be rich without working for it. It teaches us how to be healthy without doing the healthy things. This THING teaches us that happiness is not dependent on our doing those things which will bring happiness to us and others. This cursed THING tells us we can live forever without any science involved what-so-ever. It tells us we need to populate the earth, as rapidly as rats and rabbits. This destroyer of happiness and good teaches us that we are to use nature as we see fit and if we mess up, something will come along and make everything ok again. This terribly destructive THING teaches us that we are better than everybody else. This terrible THING teaches us we can have SOMETHING FOR NOTHING! And there you have it!

Have you guessed what this terrible THING is yet? Here are some more hints. It makes a person believe he is always right in his conclusions. It makes a person think he is better than anyone who doesn't agree with him and his position. This terrible THING divides the world up into hundreds and even thousands of parts. Each part believes only its part is the right part of the world and all the rest of the parts are badly in error and at the least should be isolated into some small corner of the world. At the most, this THING teaches us that the other parts should be eliminated from the face of the earth.

Are you still trying to identify this THING? Here are some more clues. This THING tells you it is more important for you to believe correctly than it is for you to do correctly. This destructive THING tells you IT is the most important THING in the world. In fact, this THING tells you the whole world and universe is made and run for ITS OWN pleasure. This THING tells you that you are only here for ITS OWN fun and joy. Have you gotten it yet?

Of all the things in the world which gives us trouble and disrupts our tranquility and peace, this THING is the worst. This THING is invisible. IT is untouchable. IT can not be proven. IT can not be studied. This terrible THING can not be justified. This THING does not have one single fact or truth to verify it. This THING breaks up into thousands of parts with each part hostile and at war with all the other parts. This THING manufactures and makes up its own morality, concepts, histories and stories.

Those people who point out how terrible this THING is are looked down on, and in many instants are put in prison for having spoken out against this THING. Those people who cry out for relief from this THING are judged to be bad and are not worthy of civil justice. These victims are looked upon as second class citizens. This THING classifies all the bad things it teach us, as GOOD, and this THING calls the good things of society, BAD.

This THING has wormed itself into your government, into your business, into your homes and worst of all, into your minds. This THING is a slave master which enslaves your mind and makes you think you are the only one with a sense of justice, harmony and peace. This THING teaches you that you are always right and all others are always wrong. This SLAVE MASTER insists that you go out into the world and intimidate, threaten, brow beat and persuade others that you are right and they are wrong.

And guess what? These people fall for your false teachings because you have manufactured and developed books, schools and a philosophy which teaches people that knowledge doesn't come from finding and studying the facts. Rather, people have been taught by this THING that you can know the truth by simply accepting what this THING says is true. This THING teaches you that you can get SOMETHING FOR NOTHING by begging for it. So this terrible THING has scrambled your mind to the point where you CAN NOT THINK!

This THING is beginning to sound like the worst idea ever fostered upon the human race. What must we do to send this THING back to the ancient, dark, barbarian past from which it sprang? How may we free ourselves from this mental dungeon which is destroying individuals and putting the peoples of the world at war with each other? How can we help humanity survive this THING? The solution is very simple. It is also very difficult. Because of your concern over the plight of this world, I will tell you how to be personally free from this destructive THING which hangs over all of our heads.
