    Is the term "moral majority" not sometimes a blatant oxymoron?

    Think for a moment:  slavery was once approved of and endorsed by the majority.  The majority of citizens get chest-poundingly patriotic during wartime.  Fetal murder was once defended to levels of uproar by "the majority".  I mean, sheesh!  How did this phrase ever come to be??

    People have been calling good bad and bad good years before Michael Jackson, as for people of color being called minorities this is a misnomer also as the world population increases and technological advances shrinks the world.  Mike got caught in the middle like mony.

      Michael was pure love. The psychopaths who live in the shadows couldn't stand his awareness and power. And love is indeed power.

    Excellent observation and question.

    The Corporate Party media, run by the psychopathic elite are plucking the strings of mass ego. They understand the mechanics of action-reaction and Problem-Reaction-Solution. They've become masters at playing the symphony of tyranny.

    They've come up with numerous phrases to pigeonhole people in one box in opposition to those in another box. Divide and conquer.

    This is the game being played out across the tapestry of what used to be a great nation. They are the wool pulled over the eyes of the not-so-innocent Americans who no longer care that their land is no longer that of the free or home of the brave. They've become cowards, hiding behind legislation that imprisons them.

    "Women's liberation" was a Rockefeller-funded oxymoron which did more to destroy the family unit and pad the coffers of their private, Federal Reserve, than to aid women in any sense of equality.

    "Peace keeping missions" are another oxymoron, meant to make the horrors of war more palatable to the drugged populace of the new Evil Empire. The reluctant Emperor Obama is merely a frontispiece for the psychopathic elite who own the Corporate Party.

    "Making the world safe for democracy" is another oxymoron. Democracy is not our form of government. And we lost the democratic republic we once had. If you paid any attention to the last two presidential conventions -- one for the Democrats and one for the Republicans -- they no longer honor the vote, but ignore the people in favor of the script, written by the psychopaths.

    The language is meant to divide and conquer -- to make the people weak with squabbling or overwhelm. But the psychopaths don't realize that they will lose. They will not win their highly prized New World Order with a more manageable 500 million in slaves. They may accomplish killing 6 billion, but their selfishness and scarcity-based consciousness will betray them.

    God created us in His image and likeness, but He is not Homo sapiens. Those who cling to these bodies will lose, in the end. Those who have nothing but love will win.
