You have your premises backward. Humans are perfect, and enormously diverse. Ideologies are limited and unreal.
Forcing unrealistic ideologies on a diverse Human population results in inevitable failure. It is not humanity that is at fault. It is not the fault of reality when your dreams do not come true!!
But it can still be un-lawful. The big difference is that the government itself determines legality via it's legislation and courts, whereas the law is discovered in the tangible and natural reality, not the governments verbiage. It is unlawful to take another persons life, it is legal to do so if your legislation justifies it as assassination. It is still un-lawful. It is unlawful to steal another persons property, but it is legal if the government calls the stealing taxation.
Legalizing crime is not making the crime lawful. It is attempting to create a legal means to an unlawful end. Failure in the long term is inevitable.
If you want to see a real one, watch carefully the Apollo 16 landing. There is a sphere that appears and immediately moves over the surface towards the Lander just a couple of seconds before the final pitch over and touchdown.
You can see these in abundance as blue spheres in the USGS Clementine Natural color data at USGS map a planet.
There is a derelict ship in the Apollo 14 Landing video that is white-washed out in www.google.com/moon.
This too is visible on that same ridge at the same coordinates at USGS.
Who needs a fake when the real ones are already visible?
What is money "laundering" except the removal of the value from the view of someone outside the transaction? Who is outside the transaction that does not want to be excluded? The banks that issue and utilize the money they have the positive "right" to create exclusively. Real money does not have a bank attached to it, or a government, or a positive right associated with it's creation and/or distribution.
If laundering money is a crime, you have to ask yourself who the victim of this crime is. It is not you and me.
Yeah! And think what fun it'll be to "argue" with a sock puppet in the forums! It'll be just like feeding a troll! Except the trolls don't generally come to your house to visit later with their guns drawn.....
No. We need to rid ourselves of the notion that we need power. Not better power, not safer power. NO POWER. Leave all of the power in the hands of all the people, not just some handful of people GIVEN power.
Once someone holds a right to power, everyone else loses their freedom. Its a scam every time its been tried, and it fails to better anyones lives outside the sphere of the powerful. Every king, every president, every potentate seat of power ever created in all of human history has come to a bloody or destructive end, with no exceptions. Nature will not tolerate anybody's beliefs for long.
Its not the form of the power, or who has the power, or what the power is for initially, its the fact of its existence that is the guarantee of its demise. Tyranny happens because power is a seat for it to be in. No power, no tyrants (at least none that are a threat).
That is exactly what happens every time a make-believe power is created. Real people do not have power over each other. Make one up, and you can put a good person in that seat, for a while, but eventually the ass-hats will take it over. Don't do it in the first place and you avoid having an ass-hat as your dictator later.
LOL! Same in the Radio Business. Another poster, several in fact, don'r see the mystery here. They have Windows, and they have bored employees who, are doing what they should be able to do without worrying about their machines "getting sick". Linux users and Mac users do not generally have to worry about this. Only Windows. A Mac or Linux based system would not suffer total shutdown of all workstations because an infection ot one of those machines would be limited to just one machine. I have NEVER seen a wild *nix virus.
Let's see...opportunity knocks and shows a whole new direction for the cafe.....NAH! let's kick em' out instead! Riff Raff! go someplace else!
Business falls off to competition from "cheap internet whore coffee houses". At least they go bankrupt with their heads held high, right?
So we go along with tapping foreign calls and the next thing they will do is route all calls off shore, tap them, and then rout them back!
Every concession to power leads to more and more concessions to power, and less and less freedom. It starts with the first concession, something like this: "....;and the _________ will have the power of ________......" in a law or constitution.
From there it's all downhill.
Where it went wrong was the use of a positive right. A positive right is the belief that a single entity has a right that is not common to anyone else. It is positive only to the holder of the right.
Negative rights are common to all individuals. I have a negative right in my right to continue liveing and my right to prevent you from killing me. So do you. But a positive right is an assumption of exclusion.
Positive rights lead directly to tyranny. Mubarak was no different than the RIAA in this light. Perhaps we could form a peaceful protest and get the RIAA to "step down"!
They don't recognize their hipocracy. They do what they do from the standpoint that they have a duty, a mandate, to utilize the power of their office. If what they are doing SEEMS wrong, then it must be that we are not looking at the bigger picture in some way and so we don't see the far off positive outcome that the seemingly bad behaviour will bring forth. Of course, there is no benefit from any government action that is not a negative somewhere else, but government very rarely ever looks in that direction!
God should have a place in everything, since he does anyway. It's belief in human gods that has no place in government! Every government ever created assumed powers beyond normal human experience. It is the belief that those imagined powers are real that eventually creates tyranny. In fact, because positive rights of power are built in to every government system, the system contains the very flaw that seals it's own eventual failure.
I would feel much better knowing that the people in my government were just people, and that the government was set up to prevent human gods from forming, and leaving god-like super powers up to God exclusively.
Read the ten commandments and you see the first three rules are about not being or believing in "gods". Islam and other faiths have similar rules, and for the same reasons. They are rules for sustainable human behavior.
"The public, us, is fed so much disinformation that most of us don't know which way is up anymore."
That's why when you stand on the Constitution, it's easy to see which way is "UP" and can then see what direction the sh%t is coming from!
Yes. Not just DNS but ad-hoc P2P as well. We need a layered protocol like TCP/IP that isn't centralized in any way that is monolithic. All lookup and routing must be ad-hoc and on-the-fly.
I second that! The people everywhere are under the same thumb of "Print money and power whenever they want" tyranny, including US!
God bless the Egyptians and I wish them all and their loved ones happiness and prosperity for their future.
No, It's the Statistical Model gene. It's when researchers turn the corner on reality and guess their interpretation of data is the broader reality. You can find it in spades on Wall Street and any office of government.
It's a "Researcher" who thinks he knows something because he has drawn "links" in "Data: to the POSSIBILITY of a Gene......He got himself some "Religion" by believing his own Bull Sh*t!!!
All jokes aside, You are right. There are several forms of energy transfer or conversion and one of them would have to be employed by any form of entity to communicate a presence in our reality.
This is not to say that there is an entity, it's just that if there is, it must use conventional means to communicate to your conventional body and mind some conventional information, it's presence.
So, My advise is to test every form of energy transfer you can dream up, and establish real baseline readings so your measurements have a control. Try to read only what is there, not what you expect to be there. The more you focus upon a specific phenomenon, the more likely your measurement will be a filter for just that one phenomenon.
Visit people who have had experiences and see what energies were percieved. Sound? Light? Heat? Touch? Pressure? Electric? Magnetic? etc.
Have fun, but be exact. Don't try to convince anyone, just try to get a good data set!

Fireball tracking? Why? If it lands, we know where, and we know where it came from too, space. It's a UFO tracking system. "Fireballs" my arse!
"Name one time government did any good" Hmm - When it did nothing, and nobody noticed.

"I want to play Free Market with a drowning Libertarian." Funny, that's how Fractional Reserve Banking works....
Same here. And when forum ops rewrite my posts, it becomes painfully obvious to everyone else that that is what was done! (fu ABC news!)
