    As time is a thing that passes in the journey from the womb to the tomb.  I was a little bit closer to being worm food, & gone, cha cha cha.  I didn't know how I was going to go I only knew all the possibilities.

    I've come close a few times, oh, yes, indeed.  The car slipping & sliding on the ice & snow.  Sideways into the other lane right in front of a Semi-Truck.  Ooops, time to say, goodbye.  But the car came out of the slide, back into the my lane, up a bank of snow, & back into my lane, & driving straight down the road.

    So old Gramps Chief Apathetic walked outside still on his journey through this world.  Fresh snow, cold, no tracks in the snow of human or beast.  So of course I had to go stomping through the snow to track it all up.  Weeeee, look at me I am stomping through the snow.

    A stomping we shall go, a stomping we shall go, a hi ho a dairy-o a stomping we shall go.
    Stomping through the snow, a hi ho a dairy-o, a stomping through the snow.

    So who were the first human beings to go a stomping through the snow.  Oh, no, it's all been done before.

    But, Tracks In The Snow, wouldn't be a bad Song Title.  Probably do a Net search & find anywhere from 1 to zillion songs with the title, Tracks In the Snow.

    Ahh, and the back popped.  My atomic structure decaying at a more rapid pace all the time.   Thus I continue with my plan of paying my "bills" & rendering unto Caesar what is Caesar's until I leave this world.

    It's not much of a plan I admit.  But it is a plan.

    Hmmm, I wonder if Jesus knew some 2000 years ago when he said, Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's, that while it may look like Caesar is building some really grand swell world upon the earth that in the long run all it will do is turn into Hell on Earth.

    Sure are a lot people on the Net talking about how it's becoming, dare I say it, Hell on Earth.
    Yeah, well, my back, neck, shoulders, one hand, one hip, & eyes, aren't to swift either.
    The continuing joys of getting old.  The possibility of looming, dare I say it, Senility.

    Hey, don't be making fun of me because I am senile because I'll remember it.

    Hey hey hey
    The snow falling down upon the ground
    Covering the trees
    Wind whistling around
    There's no tracks in the snow
    There's no place  you want to go

    You'd rather watch the snow falling down
    Covering the ground
    Listening to the silence of the wind
    Whistling around
    There are no tracks in the snow
    There no place you want to go

    Hey hey hey
    Just another day of your journey through
    So a stomping through the snow you go
    And now don't you know don't you know'
    There's tracks in the snow
    There's tracks in the snow

    Nice reading this...

    Do you know that men die because of this contradiction in their mind.

    I do not want to, nor wish to die.
    Nevertheless, I am going to die and I accept that I will die.

    When you solve that contradiction in your own mind you will live and it's not too late to start.

    Truth teaches that  if you love death and look forward to it, you will live.

    Or if you hate death and will avoid it always again you will live.

    It's a parable and I can explian if you see any benefit in it.

      All people die eventually regardless of any contradiction in their minds, or fears of death.
      Very few ever come back.  This Universe is a dimension, but this dimension is watched & listened to 24 hours a day from the Kingdom that is in another Dimension.  The Kingdom keeps a file on everyone.  The Kingdom keeps a file on those in this world that are keeping files on everyone else upon the earth.

      In the Kingdom Jesus is the Law.  The Decider Guy.

        Many die well before their time, horribly.



        Does your magical kingdom also keep files on the 25,000 children who starve to death every day?

          Chief Apatheticposted 14 years agoin reply to this

          Yep.   Children do starve to death every day upon this planet.  People die every day upon this planet.  There are people who try to help those children or the. children they can help, too.
          A lot of children die because of the those who rule over their Nations, rule over many Nations through the policies of the World Banks & Corporations, are murdered because of those who love worldy power & on a continuous basis seek more power upon earth.   

          God gave man freewill upon the earth.  There is very little upon the earth that isn't controlled by Banks & Corporations or the powers of the world of man that often topple other Governments to set up their own puppet leaders in other Nations.

          The book of Relevation Chapter 18 discusses that the merchants of the earth were/are great men who Deceived all the Nations of the earth.   They do not have God or Jesus deceived at all.

          God is he that no man can deceive.  Jesus is the Son, and one with the Father that no man can deceive.   Good & Evil.  Evil exists in this world  At this time God permits evil to exist in this world.

          Even though there is not even one who, Good, as only God is Good, there is also good in this world. 

          Jesus instructed his disciple that there would come False Teachers, Wolves in Sheep's Clothing & those Jesus calls the Workers of Iniquity.  Jesus already knew men who do evil in his name just as others do evil in God's name of other Religions.   There is not even one who is, Good.

          Atheists have done evil, also.  There isn't any pretending that evil does not exist in this world.

          I personally am not the judge of this world.  Judgement of this world is Jesus's job, not mine.

          If there was not evil in this world then Jesus would never had to have come, nor been crucified.

            It is the height of hypocrisy to justify those deaths as you have attempted. Sickening to the core.

            Yes, great evil does in fact exist on this planet. It's called religion.

              Chief Apatheticposted 14 years agoin reply to this

              I don't belong to any Religion.  I belong to the Spiritual Kingdom Jesus taught.  Jesus did not teach Religion, nor gave any indication he came to start a new Religion.  Jesus came with the Spiritual Teachings of the Kingdom.  Jesus called his original disciples, and taught them those teachings, or sayings.

              Jesus said there would be two types of people, those who heard his sayings & kept them, and those who heard his sayings & did not keep them.

              He taught his original disciples to be as wise as serpents & as harmless as doves.  Forgive & you will be forgiven.  Love your friends & love your enemies.  Return good for evil done to you.
              Pray for those who use you despitefully.  All of those teachings form A Spiritual Circle to keep a person in the Spiritual Circle or Love & Light.

              The word is Love.

              God gave man free will before Jesus ever came.  What was happening upon the earth all through time was happening before Jesus ever even showed up upon the earth.  In the Time Continuum that leads from beginning to end the same thing has kept on happening, & will continue to keep on happening.

              So you can play all your Mind Games, you desire.  All I have to do is keep Jesus's sayings.  It isn't my job to judge this world, nor to judge you for your life, nor anyone else for their life upon the earth.

              If you think your going to "Teach Me" all about history then your dead wrong.  If you "Think" your going to teach me about human nature then you are dead wrong.

              If you "Think" there is some anger within you that bothers me at all you are dead wrong.

              I am at peace.  I am merely doing love & peace with my life on my journey through this world.

                Oh, I completely understand your selfishness and ignorance, and that you couldn't care less for anyone or anything other than yourself and your god fantasies. You've not spouted any different hypocrisy and hatred than others here with the same afflictions. I understand it's almost impossible to get through to you and you'll not likely change your ideals. You'll continue on through your life with the same hatred and despising of others while ignoring the world around you.

                It's all part and parcel to the way of gods.

                  Life is a series of cash registers until you die.

                  If there is any anger within you about anything that is your anger that is within you.  I am at peace.
                  You cannot overcome me with any anger within yourself.  Your wasting your time.  Go buy yourself a Nintendo Wii, & live it up big time upon the earth. 

                  Do what you want to do with your life.  What do things have to do with me at all?

    Here's what you do, Q, you get you a bow & arrow, I would recommend a cross bow, fishing line, fishing traps, tent, & whatever clothes you have & go to a remote part of Yellowstone or up into Alaska.  Then you live completely off the earth without your Money or stores.

    Maybe?  Maybe not?  Do you know how many people of Native heritage I know or who has all trained me in what exactly?  That is very doubtful.  So take you bow & go.  Live completely off the land without money or stores.  Turn off your electricity & save the earth.  Don't go to any place that uses electricity & save the earth.   Live completely off the earth & save the earth.

    Here's what you do, Q.  You go to Hopi Rez.  Find The Elders of the Tribe, and express all your worries & concerns to them about life on planet earth.  Take a day, month, a year.  They'll probably give you some water & food.  You have to have water & food to live upon planet earth as all human beings must have water & food to live upon the earth.

    And so that is your point?  What is this a tennis match or basketball game where you think you scored some point against me?   Tell me, Q, do you have money to pay for your electric bill, your mortgage, rent, computer, your Net connection.  Do you own a car, have money for insurance, and gas.  Do you have money to go to the store & buy stuff at the store?

    As my Indian dad says, their world is a series of cash registers in all directions.  Life is a series of cash registers until you die.  Go tell it dad & see how far you get with him.  Try playing your game of Scoring Points with dad.   He'll tell you to pay your own, bills, Q.  So you have your life upon planet earth just like some over 6 billion other people have their lives.

    I am not worried about the destruction of the earth.   Everyone that reads at this site or posts here is using electricity.  Everyone needs some money to live their lives in this world that is the now of things.   I am not judging anyone about anything of their life.   I follow Jesus's teaching of loving my friends & loving my enemies.

    I am happy & content to let Jesus judge the human race as that is his job, not mine.

    And so apparently, Q, you have money to pay your bills in life.  Apparently you have a computer & screen, & access to the Net.  Apparently you can read & write in the English language.  Apparently you have a residence upon planet earth.   Go to Washington & walk around with a sign that says, I Protest, for a year & see what that actually solves.

    A year later the Banks, Corporations, and the politicians they buy will still be running things, Q.
    They were running things when I came into this world.  They're running things now.  Not many places you can go upon planet earth where they aren't running things.

    I never speak of any violence towards anyone, nor for anyone to break any laws.  Under their laws you have the Right to go to Washington, and walk around with a sign that says, I Protest, and see how much that accomplishes.

        Dad already knows what I am going to do in life.  I am going to take care of myself & mine, keep our bills paid as best we are able, obey the law, render unto Caesar what is Caesars, and live our lives in this world.

        Dad already knows I am not going to speak of any violence towards any person, nor tell any person to break any laws. 

        So what is the next completely predictable thing your going to say to me as if my dad, I haven't heard it all before.   Human beings are only capable of having so many conversations about so many things, Q, and at the end of the day they go to their residences where they sleep, get up & go to work, the bills arrive, and they pay their bills.

        If they don't pay their bills they end up homeless in this world now that ruled over by the Temples of Mammon.

        And time passed.  I was a little closer to being worm food.  You see, Q, there is a picture of Jesus on my home page of how he appeared to me in the sky when I was a boy of 10.  I've already met him live & in person.  When you meet him live & in person if you have any problems with me you just mention those to him & see if smiles.

        As I said the Europeans came to this land, and set up their world in this land.  I didn't found their Nation or build their Nation.  If their Nation has problems then it is up to them to solve those problems.   

        There's isn't any shortage of political Sites on the Net where they talk about the problems of their Nation, & they feel all that frustration of accomplishing nothing at all.  A place for them to Vent Vent Vent.

        As the Golden Rule applies.  Those that have the gold make the rules.  Those who have the gold will have the gold tomorrow.  They will have the gold the next day.  In their pockets they will have the politicians all around the planet.   

        So play your little Tennis Match of yowling & howling because those with the gold will just ignore you.   They aren't going to give up their gold.  They aren't going to give up all their Worldly Power any more the Caesar's of Rome were going to give up those things.  Any more than Herod was going to give up those things.'

        But Old Mr. Death eventually took Herod & the Caesar's of Rome, too.  Kind of like a game of leap frog.   Old Mr. Death just leaps around taking this one & that one no matter if a Worldly King with great power or a homeless person in the street.
