The history of our planet bears a legacy that's less than fortunate. Selfish and arrogant individuals have had the notion that our world is their own personal "pig farm" in which they can destructively do as they wish. The well-being of others and the health of the environment itself have been recklessly abused in a foolish scramble to try and maximize profits. Selfishness as we have witnessed is wrong by any standard but it would be easier to understand if greed was actually of genuine benefit to it's perpetrators. In reality, it's the root of all evil, and the source of every unpleasant side effect that humanity experiences. There are no winners where there is an absence of cooperation so the first step we must remind ourselves to take is to be reasonable and fair with others so that we might improve our situation. The planet is supposed to be a garden paradise, and it will return to its pristine state as quickly as we can uproot the selfish assumptions that have been held for far too long. It still comes as a shock to many people, but greed is crime and the root of crime. It can, must and will be seen as such in the near future. Humanity was able to "get away" with a lot of bad behavior when the world was a much less crowded and technologically primitive place. Times have changed and this renders the "old boy" networks and criminal gangs of the past so far beyond the scope of obsolete that it's astounding. The criminals who are still trying to "get away" with their misdeeds actually think that there's still a chance for them to prevail and maintain their false advantages. They don't understand that they are being held accountable for everything and it's only going to get more complicated. The criminal world as we knew it is finished. The greed addicts are still trying to perpetuate the "pig farm" paradigm that they so favor, but for what? Thomas is on holidays so I (John) did the show myself. The show is really about documenting the parity ideas rather than worrying too much about interviews and guest hosts. Numerous topics are discussed including James Lee the environmentalist who held the Discovery Channel hostage this week. Further discussion touched upon the choice humanity faces. We need to choose some form of spiritual or religious agreement with one another. Commercialism isn't adequate by itself and people who think that peace comes about solely as a result of commerce are sorely mistaken. A lot of people assume that religion is the cause of all evil but in reality it's really all that's holding us together. The pig farm of greed has never been and will never be civilized. Making a promise to be honest is the only way out of the demographic quagmire our world is in.

Selfish people actually think life is an argument and their job is simply a matter of defeating their opponents . They callously favor personal profit at all costs and argue that this is good for the economy and the common good based on a wide variety of lies. The advocates of greed have no ethical boundaries and they tend to assume that winning consists of doing whatever is necessary to defeat counterarguments and "get their way". For them, life is a struggle between winners and losers and they are determined to be "winners" no matter how much damage they do to others. The advocates of greed assume that their behavior is impermeable "human nature" that can never change and thus surely they will win out in the end. They assume that capitalism and profit based endeavor is immutable and can't possibly be opposed. As animals engaged in a brutal struggle for supremacy they foment the aggression needed to reach their objectives, and they convince themselves that the position they take is logical. After all, the greed addicts believe themselves to be the select few who must occupy the winner's circle of power, influence and materialism. They have the instinct of animals and they assume that the conclusions they make are intelligent. They're "winners" after all and "winning" is what competitive beasts understand. We live in a world that has been brutal and primitive but it's not as empty as it used to be. The greed paradigm has always been painful and dysfunctional but humanity "got away with it" for centuries because we had a wilderness to explore and exploit. Those days are over whether the capitalist fool understands that or not. The real reality is logistical, and the selfish arguments made by the overly ambitious salesmen and ethically deficient businessmen of the world are even more obsolete than the dinosaurs. People might want to be selfish and spend their time expanding their business but there is a much more vast reality to our world than the quest to attain personal profit. We actually have to organize the planet if we truly seek a sustainable and survivable form of well-being. The lies of big business address only the instincts of the animals rather than the more important realities that we must adhere to. There is nothing noble or even pragmatic about spending the entirety of one's existence dedicated to an uncoordinated and chaotic battle for personal gain. The advocates of greed think they are rational beings but they have it all wrong. Sadly most don't recognize their animalistic nature and that means that the rest of us have no choice but to work to the best of ability in opposing their cancerous wrongs and misconceptions. The dinosaurs are big business can be fierce and intimidating, but personal profit isn't an intelligent plan and it's not a sustainable paradigm in a world that has filled itself with people who are hacking away at the environment day after day. The dinosaurs of capitalism will roar a bit longer, but the rest of us must identify them for who and what they are. Our task is to overcome the mistakes of the past and secure a better future for ourselves and our families. It can be a challenge to overcome the allure of selfishness but it's compulsory that we do so. The real world requires equilibrium and demands logistical thought. The beast who only wants to expand his chain of businesses is not serving the common good or helping us maintain our world. Various topics are discussed on today's show and some Bible translation issues are also mentioned relating to the show's title. (Psalm 23).

My most difficult cross to bear in this life has been to contend with a very troublesome comparison I'm subject to and just can't seem to escape. Rather than "putting it out of my mind" like so many people do, I struggle every single day as I observe the damage being done to the world by the collective greed of humanity. It's probably an inappropriate analogy to use but I have always felt that we should be as fanatically dedicated to the abolition of greed as the infamous Nazi party was dedicated to war. Arguably it's an inappropriate comparison to make but I can't help but feel that the world has completely neglected the call of duty required of us for the establishment of a higher purpose and the implementation of social justice. All my life I have been on the lookout for the corrective cause that would lead us to a better future, but the people the world have embraced commercial values. Idealism and morality have not only been neglected, in many cases such values have been outrightly condemned so that greed and hedonism can run rampant. According to so many people, capitalist selfishness and an endless addiction to amusments "helps" the world and preserves peace. The fanaticism of the Nazi party and the corrupt communist movements of the 20th century butchered the concept of socialism and the common good itself -- leaving us to be virtual victims of the sickest 'religion' that has ever existed; greed. I don't know about the rest of you but I will never be comfortable about the injustice that greed causes us every single day and the environmental and social problems it is causing have mounted a pending cataclysm in our wake. They say the Emperor Nero fiddled while Rome burned and in our current world people roam from one party to the next while our real duties have been abandoned completely. The people have prioritized money first and have placed morals last as if we are now too modern and advanced to retain common sense. The current generations of the G8 world have never experienced serious war or cataclysm and notions of pending threats are brushed aside and dismissed as idle possibilities that couldn't be counteracted anyway. It's an easy rationalization to make and the party goes on, and the debts rack up. The people of our countries arrogantly insist that we are evolved and nothing like the monsters that Hitler and Stalin were. Sadly, people don't realize that ultimately the atrocities of the past occurred because of debt and the never-ending hedonistic addiction people have toward commercial amusements. We should be struggling vigorously if not militantly to prevent catastrophe but most people assume that "it can never happen to us". Surely we're in the 21st century now so let's party like there's no tomorrow and run up every possible debt. Greed is virtually sanctioned because it is assumed that "everyone is greedy" and surely no one is going to fight when the tidal wave of bills comes due. We should be studying history and applying ourselves wholeheartedly toward good causes and education while there is time left but nobody seems to want to believe that sooner or later it's last call. A wide variety of topics are discussed on the show once again exploring what has happened to us in the post World War II period. There seems to be an outstanding assumption that greed, selfishness, and commercial conduct is the best way to oppose organized movements and war. Unfortunately, the selfish post war attitudes adopted by the people have led us to the to what could be the worst pending debt crisis in all of recorded history. Too many people don't seem to understand that wars must be prevented and that means we must actively maintain moral coordination. We can't just ban "militants" and "extremists" by decree and continue the non-stop party. Sooner or later the debt situation causes an upheaval and this time around it may be of epic proportions.

Every brainiac has an idea for the new pie maker that will revolutionize the world and earn him a fortune. Sadly, greed is not reality. It's not sustainable. On today's show the master scheme of the schemer is explained so that it can be understood for what it is. The world is suffering from one huge cancerous swindle that supposedly benefits the swindler but in reality, it never does. A variety of topics are discussed as well as some computer commentary as the 'fun' and interesting content of the show we are supposed to include. Ultimately there is only one simple eventuality that we are facing. The mainstream knows that sustainability is what our future must be. Here on the show we refer to it using the word parity. There is so many words for the concept but what it really amounts to is equilibrium. In the final analysis the barbaric age of selfishness has to end sometime simply because we are too advanced and too populous to continue the drastic errors of the past. The advocates of greed are foolish dinosaurs that are guaranteed of one thing. Extinction. The whole world knows we have to go sustainable, but confronting the economic root of sustainability is touchy. That's why Thomas and I are acting as test pilots for this difficult subject. Eventually people will come to understand that greed isn't a benefit to us, it's actually what has held the planet back for centuries. It's the cause of all the war, injustice and strife we don't need. Genuine sustainability is compulsory whether we like it or not. Selfish people want the greed party to continue even though it's side effect prone. It simply can't and won't work. Greed as we know it is about to become as popular as smoking cigarettes in a maternity ward. Those who have advocated and practiced it, will have to deal with the consequences of their actions. The best recommendation is that they make the change voluntarily and help us move toward a new beginning on the planet. In the next few years we will be seeing a complete reversal of fortune. Greed will be understood for the cancer that it is, and people will fully realize how irrational it was.

Thomas came up with the weirdest show title we have ever had as a result of our buddy Warren Buffy's supposed pledge to lead the billionaires on a quest to give back at least half their fortunes within their lifetimes. Do we believe him? Who can tell but at least it's a start and the title is priceless. I'm making a change of course myself and have decided to concentrate my efforts on the "Long List/Make a Promise" idea. I'm suffering from my own state of heartbreak because there are a tremendous number of influential people who have been monitoring the show and ideas yet they remain exclusively and chronically anonymous. I'm not talking about a casual listener but rather a collection of people we all would've thought would have made a different judgment call that what they have. The state of our world is anything but perfect and we all know that, but rather than openly and honestly addressing the situation, those most able to make change have decided to be silent. It has been this way for far longer than what is acceptable and there is no excuse for it. Anonymity doesn't solve problems, it causes them. Either we stand for what we believe in and make it known to others or else we contribute to the illusions that are slaying us daily. I can't explain to all of you what I have gone through over the past 18 years and I may never be able to. We have a collective group of very secretive people who are not representing themselves for who they are, yet they believe themselves to be qualified to steer the planet and suppress the changes that need to take place. I didn't know how to describe the problem I have been encountering until Thomas proposed the crazy title for the show. After that, it all fell into place. Over the course of the show I realized that the current managers of the world aren't helping us or helping the world progress. Their actual conduct is that of the vampire, and that might actually explain why we have a culture based on drama and vampirism these days. Everyone is still lurking in the dark, behind the scenes, lying to people, deceiving, manipulating and doing God knows what. Purportedly they act on the basis of responsibility and a good cause, but how do we know that? How do we even know who they are? They don't tell us because perhaps they don't want us to know what they are really all about. I suppose secrecy and anonymity have been used for centuries to control populations with fear. It brings forth a great many advantages, but what are the costs? The actual cost is an out of control planet whose spirit rejects goodwill and cooperation. Such virtues will never be restored until we take the steps required and change our ways.

Huh? You mean we got the show done? You could've fooled me considering some of the mayhem going on around here. Nevermind, you wouldn't believe me anyway. In any case our journal continues and we are trying to pinpoint the perplexing error of human psychology that is causing our world so many problems. The majority of the people here are still siding with selfishness first, at the expense of God and/or the Common Good. People think it's pragmatic and unavoidable to concentrate on money first and morals last. We have a problem in our world but what is it? Why can't our issues be solved? The reason is simple. People insist that greed is human nature and that there is no possible chance whatsoever that this can ever change. They are adamant about that, they insist upon it, and they viciously fight to preserve the very condition that's actually causing the mess in the first place. I don't get it. It's a world where everyone wants to be rich and famous and powerful and as completely screwed up and endangered as the leaders of our pyramid scheme already are. Our world needs improved social progress and we definitely have to address the unsustainable levels of expansion. Nevertheless, we don't address the real issues and everyone is still playing manipulative games trying to gain "advantages". I don't know how deluded and imperiled things have to get before people are ready to review the errors and admit our mistakes. If we can't admit mistakes we can't the mistakes. I'm trying to figure out why the brunt of humanity remains adamant about selfishness. Collectively we are all guilty of this condition and none of us is rectifying the situation so don't bother arguing or pleading the case that any of us is doing enough. We are a planet in failure and I worry that the consequences are going to catch up with us. Many people including history itself tells us that the economy is headed for a great deal of turbulence. The debt levels and wealth polarizations are at the worst levels since World War II but don't ask for opinions. There's a sports party, a rock music party, a gay party, a private party, a holiday party, a long weekend party, and a company party we have to attend. Priorities are priorities so let's party until the the end of the world, and the way things are going we just might get there. Current events are discussed as well as some computer related issues. We tried to remember to talk about some fun and lighthearted matters and we did. A really excellent program for doing your backups is discussed and it's located at the following link. http://allwaysync.com

Parity_Talk_July-25-2010__Addicted_to_Competition_128kbps

Depending on how you look at it, today's show is our best or our worst ever. I think we talked about more Hollywood junk today than ever before. Fortunately there were a few reasonable insights to be had. We discussed all the gigs "KRUD" is playing, and "Child-Boy" -- the newest talent to arrive on the scene since sliced bread. We discussed some fun stuff, food and gardening related information and had to push some of the content back for next week. The important part of the show consisted of our current global situation that's getting worse as capitalism decays. The end may be nearing after all, but you certainly wouldn't know it based on what a lot of people are doing. There is more rhetoric condemning greed but we keep things positive as well. All things considered I think we are remaining in good spirits given the circumstances of the mess we are dealing with. Our world remains addicted to greed and competition. It's a pyramid scheme that's likely to collapse one of these days so we need to get ready for it. Life is about maintaining civilization first, and amusements afterward. Our priorities have been screwed up lately. If the world can't figure out that "professional golfer" is an oxymoron then we are in tremendous trouble.

Parity_Talk_July-18-2010__PLANNING_NOT_PROFIT_128kbps

Today we are discussing the contrast between that which motivates us. Do we support wisdom, organization and proper planning -- or do we settle for a perpetual "high school" mentality in which we tend to our lives for the sake of private interest and private profit? We make the choice whether we are going to be advocates of the common good or just people out to try and profit of thus running the world into a disorganized state. Not everything today is serious. Far from it. We discuss some crazy issues, as well as tragedies. We managed to discuss the ball point pens and writing instruments for a while just to try to be less serious. We are going to be emphasizing the idea of a "daily promise" from this point onward and see if we can expand and develop the idea. We have two choices. Either we stay focused and maintain the common good with continual reminders, or we venture off into the chaos of commercialism. Responsibility is difficult and less appealing than the idea of a nonstop party, but the planet needs people who are truthful. The binge of commercialism and unrestrained capitalism have caused the polarization of wealth that will be manifesting once again soon enough. A new attitude and spiritual awakening will be needed more than ever in the coming months. At the very least we have to be aware of our situation and stop ignoring the true cause of our mistakes.

The planet isn't going to substantially improve until we confront the problem of selfishness and actually admit that something is wrong. Humanity's progress has stalled and we are awaiting the next phase of economic decline. The next wave of problems is unlikely to be pleasant but hopefully it will lead to a planetary wake-up call followed by a transition. Various topics are discussed on today's hopeless and less than focused show. "Who made who" loosely refers to humanity's need to wake up and overthrow its machine-like addiction to greed. At some point we have to stop behaving like competitive insects and focus on cooperation rather than ownership. Encouragement is better than complaining but there is little we can do if we aren't even at the point where the real problem can be admitted just yet. I suppose we can only remain on standby and keep busy for now. The coming economic changes will surely shake things up in due time. We will try to prepare for whatever aspects of the inevitable that we can.

Dick Parsons, Chairman of Citigroup helped us define the problem in 'banker-speak' this week. Rather than the word greed, he uses the polite word "more", but he makes it clear that the planet is irreparably GUILTY of it. Fortunately we disagree with his analysis that it's always going to be dismal and never change. Our global affairs will be changing at the speed of thought, so let's get thinking. Today's show discusses our duty to be moral self-starters. No one can save the world for us -- we have to do that one person at a time. Paul Krugman wrote in the New York Times that we're entering a "Third Depression" so we need to prepare ourselves. Capitalism as we have known it is in it's death throes and hyperinflation is on the way. The "DUDU" curve of change hasn't hit us yet and the credit is still flowing so the general public has been managing to occupy it's time with more amusements -- but the party is all but over. Various topics are discussed including the golfer divorce, devil worshipers, the flaws of capitalism and religious issues. This show isn't too long and is reasonably interesting. I recommend it as a pretty good all around show that sums up the parity ideas. We have to keep documenting the basic arguments because the 65 year lifespan of Capitalism/Communism is almost at it's end. Change is coming and we're going to make the best to see that it occurs responsibly.

Parity_Talk_June-27-2010__A_Season_of_Satanism_128kbps

There are lifecycles for everything including selfishness, sales and greed. The commercial season we have been through has certainly been interesting but it's retirement is inevitable. The virtual Satanism of the "ME ME ME" era has been quite the party and some might not want to see it go, but the world actually has to balance and improve its predicament. We can't just keep producing garbage and aimlessly throwing it away so that some clown can purportedly "get rich" while poisoning the world into oblivion. Everyone with a semblance of a conscience knows that we have to smarten up. It's also best that we recognize that we unite in a common purpose and reject the "weeds" of the world. The greedy wretched people among us don't actually represent the majority. It's true that the world has been a mess and the leadership's role in this has been awkward but we are knowledgeable enough to change. It can't be avoided anyway so we might as well prepare ourselves. The economy is destined to collapse so that we can change for the better and make a transition. Don't panic and think about becoming self-starters. We should do our best to coordinate ourselves with others, but waiting for someone to dictate common sense isn't the best course of action. The end of the world is on its way and it appears that the conventional leaders have allowed this to take it's course. It's unfortunate but people might need a wake-up call to finally shake up the selfishness that has overtaken our affairs. The salesman have tried to rule the world and they have failed. They will continue to argue that the Capitalist/Communist system is the best thing since sliced bread but we know otherwise. We have to return to sustainability and that means economic sustainability. The party as we have known it has been exhilarating but ultimately tragic. It can't be maintained and most of us won't be sad to see it go when we realize that a better season actually awaits us. We just have to stay intact and make it to the new destination. The Capitalist/Communist assumptions of the past were a mistake so let's let it go and move on. :)

Parity_Talk_June-20-2010__Financial_Freedom_128kbps

True financial freedom is based on the absence of friction and greed - not the other way around. Everyone should be working at the job of their choice, but rather than doing what we love greed is keeping us unemployed. Our civilization runs wastefully on a minimum of actual work and a maximum of waste. The life we are all looking for isn't as far off as we might think. Changing the world is only a matter of having the courage to change our attitudes. Can we do what is required or are we going to dedicate ourselves to laziness? The usual topics are discussed along with current events. The significance of the music business is also debunked in a simple common sense manner. We're taking a more postive approach as well...

The six decade heyday of the salesman is over the same way every season ends. The world is embarking on the corrected course of sustainable development and it won't be long before only stranglers and deviants are left advocating the selfish "religion" of capitalism as we knew it. The petroleum era brought us to where we are today and we are in a position where we can improve ourselves and maintain our world for once. The only obstacle left is psychological. We must confront the greed and the dinosaurs that advocate it. Our problems are not insurmountable. We simply have to change billions of bad attitudes one step at a time. The key to our success consists of a simple realization. Moral conduct is not a hindrance, it is the source of our cooperation and empowerment. Moral conduct is the energy we are all looking for, and as we generate it, the rest of the seemingly unsolvable problems will be overcome. These issues and current events are discussed. From this point onward we are hoping to take an even more optimistic approach for the show. The networks of people advocating greed and capitalism have caused our world tremendous damage but we are not really fighting them. They are obsolete and they don't have the answers anyone needs. As salesman they keep arguing that capitalism needs more time while we live in cities with "the homeless on every corner". It's time for a new crusade and those who still advocate greed and Satanism as the world perspective are best advised to withdraw these errant views entirely. The problems and debts have mounted beyond the brink of reprieve and they ought take the hint and change. The rest of us are in the process of moving forward.

Parity_Talk_June-06-2010__SELF-PUNISHMENT_128kbps

Too many people assume that the world can never be changed and their attitudes and opinions don't count. Six billion people with bad attitudes multiplied equals a bad planet that can't solve its problems. All of this can and will change relatively quickly as soon as we hit critical mass and realize the simplicity of it. There are no controlling forces of evil that can't be overcome if we make the effort to stop punishing ourselves and revise our attitudes. Covered are a variety of topics including the Bilderberg 2010 meeting that is taking place near Thomas in Spain. Additionally, we have demolished the argument most favored by the selfish greed addicted capitalists who accuse everyone who advocates fairness as being a "communist". If we have to we can fall back to the root layer(s) of law (religious and feudal) and put the capitalist and communist troublemakers on trial. Always remember, we don't envy capitalists. We see them as slowpokes and stallers compared to the people we really could be. As for future shows, we may try to take an approach that's milder and based more toward a self-help message rather than the fire and brimstone message that comes so easy to me. All things considered I hope we can all progress in a more positive direction from this point onward.

Parity_Talk_May-30-2010__DROP_THE_ROPE_128kbps

The mentality of avarice is the root of all evil and even now it continues to affect the collective thoughts of the people of our planet as a psychological cancer that is extreme as it is deceptive. Multitudes of human beings are engaged in a 'tug-of-war' to preserve and protect the one condition that keeps us unhealthy. Rather than being able to see the truth for what it is, selfishness has blinded humanity to the simple cause of our grief. Not everyone is a malicious person but unfortunately as a collective we are failing to live up to our responsibilities. We are not responsible to the planet, to ourselves or our families and therefore we must insist that change be implemented. People do not want to feel down about themselves but collectively we are not living up to our obligations as planetary citizens. The problem of avarice cannot be battled and vanquished - and it can't be overcome simply through demands for fairness or the insistence that hoarding is wrong. People have to realize that those who play the greed game are eternal losers. Rather than struggling in a tug-of-war hoping that the capitalists and their followers are going to straighten up, it is our task to drop the rope entirely and treat these people with absolute rejection for what they do. As for the clichéd accusation that those who advocate fairness must be liberals, weaklings or Communists I say this. The underpinnings of our current system has always been feudalism and that system will be resurrected and it will put down the disaster capitalism and communism have created. It's not a perfect system that will have to be revised but it is one option that can decisively end every single argument postulated by capitalist criminals. An accountable system is better than a system of financial rapists and liars who poison the earth and set us all up for catastrophe. We can't win a tug-of-war and we don't have to bother trying. Drop the rope altogether and let the criminals and their greed fall into the mud. The rest of us can and will evolve. There is no reason whatsoever to fear the real sickly cowards. Those who gravitate to greed do so because they are by far the sickest and most lazy among us. This show was a bit of a harsh show at times but it has also opened up more optimism than previous shows. We are going to overcome the dinosaurs of greed whether they like it or not and soon enough they will follow our lead because we know what they are. They don't like themselves either. We can all upgrade our living standards in a nondestructive and sustainable manner in which no one need ever injure another to try and secure well-being.

I'm sorry to say it but most people have been unable to express and articulate the root cause of our social ills in simplistic and direct terms. We're working to change that with today's show and we advocate some of the actions and responses that can be made as a result. The root of all hostility and social strife is the process of greed. In practice it's about owning as much as possible and then renting that ownership out for the highest possible returns. This selfish and rampant parasitic behavior that the world has adopted is cancerous, unnecessary and it impedes our progress. No one is "winning" as a result of greed. We are all losing. Almost 500 years ago Martin Luther opposed the corruption of his day and initiated a movement based on individualism. The Reformation was chaotic but arguably it had its good points once upon a time. Unfortunately the revolt against religion has turned ugly and all that remains of it is really the downward spiral of "capitalism". Greed, selfishness and the religion of money grubbing has been trying to replace community and public trust. Even feudalism that was never a perfect system has been usurped by something infinitely worse - and the delusional maniacs keep selling us on capitalism as if it's their next fix of heroin. The greed addicts claim to be good people helping the world but everyone knows otherwise so we might as well stop lying. Greed doesn't build up the economy it actually decimates it in places everyone in a state of deprivation and insecurity. We discussed the simple principle of how this has happened and through understanding it we can reject this vile process. The message of our show is still somewhat 'underground' but there's really no argument or opposition to the self-evident message. In the past people believe that greed was wrong but beneficial just the same. We have shattered that myth forever. The capitalists and the secret societies are guilty of overwhelming and irrefutable crimes. It's time for them to apologize before it's too late. Some sort of pivotal event is coming that will spell great change and transition. The rest of us need to prepare for it and reacquaint ourselves with community and religion. If the prospect of this dismays us then it's time to get ready to work hard and make improvements. Sitting at home and watching television is one of the root causes of where we went wrong over the past 50 years. Not only can we change, eliminating the greed penalizes no one. We need to restore cooperation and the common good. Greed has proven itself to be a severe if not the most severe mental illness of all. As we counteract this madness we can take back our dignity and communities from the dinosaurs playing "stock market" with no more consideration for others than that of the juvenile delinquent.

Parity_Talk_May-16-2010__I_WANT_TO_BE_RICH_128kbps

Today's show was initially going to be titled "Homeless Vassals" but the title "I want to be rich" describes the primary motive of a shocking majority of people with greater candor. In previous centuries our world was feudalistic. Admittedly the feudal system was horrible and unfair but in contrast to its capitalist replacement - the feudal system was infinitely more accountable to the people. World War I and then World War II demolished the last vestiges of feudalism and then the capitalist priesthood of salesman brought us the new age of promises delivered largely through television. Everything was supposed to become infinitely better as the world was made safe for greed and selfishness but the reckless expansion has created the D.U.D.U. curve that spells the end to our era of insanity. The salesmen told us that things were going to get better forever and a completely unaccountable system of flagrant greed was the only method we could possibly manifest a better future. Too many people are addicted to the desire to be rich in a manner more destructive than any drug in history and the consequences are catching up with us. Does the debt in the United States slated to reach $14 Trillion dollars spell perpetual prosperity or is there a great deal of deception transpiring as the greedtards bail out their failing companies with public funds until the bitter end? Everyone wants to better themselves but we need to do it harmoniously and avoid the side effects. Selfish people don't care about how much harm is being caused to others but they should start thinking about what they themselves will be suffering as the insanity spirals out of control. The reckless desire "to be rich" is the easiest explanation as to how we got here and we're going to have to revivive community and religious tradition if we want to restore our true well-being. Television is the counterfeit church of pure greed and selfish capitalists are the ones attacking genuine morality and church to try to make the world safe for their ongoing crime spree. One essential comment I must include here is that I'm frustrated by the stupidity exhibited by greedy individuals. There's no mystery involved in getting rich - it's salesmanship pure and simple. Unfortunately, we have to gauge how much damage lies and falsehood actually cause and realize that the world can't hack it forever. Too many greedtards *assume* that anyone who complains about greed must be envious. That's not the case. Greed is the central cause why civilization is dangerous and backward compared to the level of attainment we could have made if we had made morals our priority rather than money. Greedy people are a cancer unto themselves and the world at large. They just can't seem to figure out that they really are dinosaurs and the real question isn't about bank accounts but a sustainable future.

Thomas was away this week so I did the "ROAD SHOW" show alone. Rather than remaining stuck indoors I went "back to school" and made a pilgrimage to the University. First I attended Catholic mass presided over by a Jesuit priest (the conspiracy guys will like that) and then walked the grounds searching for the bones of the giant blue whale. It's kind of fun to record a podcast while walking around town. The audio quality and planning isn't so good but it gets the job done in an improvised manner. The topic I discussed mainly involved the insanity that most of humanity possesses. Most people when questioned whether they would like to win the lottery, the overwhelming answer is "yes". This typical answer to this simple question proves that human beings are primarily criminally insane. Most want as much money as possible and they never stop to think where that money is coming from or how much damage irrational activities such as gambling actually causes. We all need a better world but it doesn't come about by wasting our resources so that a select few can waste those resources in what generally amounts to an irresponsible party. I also go on to talk about the "Priesthood of Salesmen" which are the capitalists who rape the world but rarely if ever assume responsibility for the mess they make. They too are so extremely delusional that they convince themselves that they are "helping" others by being as aggressively selfish as possible. They confuse speculation and theft with "hard work". Financial speculators are parasitic and cancerous regardless of what they tell themselves. Deep down they know it but they are too addicted to greed to admit it or ponder the consequences. Life is one big party and one big lottery after all. I just don't buy into it. The only way to win the lottery is not to participate in it at all. Road Trip Pics: 1 2 3 4 5 6

Parity_Talk_May-02-2010__START_RECYCLING_THE_WRONGS_128kbps

Humanity has made more than it's share of errors and we are in store for the consequences so let's not waste any time. It's time to start recycling the wrongs and get back on track. Thomas and I both have been making a transition from readers and researchers back to religion. Rather than conspiracy theory we have come to realize that the only conspiracy is really simple sinfulness. Some devious minds can make a complicated mess for us all but the truth is relatively simple. On today's show we discuss a wide variety of topics including the selfish 'altar' of television, the cult networks, pyramid schemes and the need to restore community. The era of greed and expansion is over thanks to the D.U.D.U. demographic curve. The era of selfishness is destined for the same fate as the dinosaurs. That includes the billionaires so we will start praying for their souls. Those of us with a conscience are busy taking back our world and there's no turning back. Everything can be infinitely better and we're going to be able to get by on much less energy and waste. The key to all of this is decisively confronting the long-term greed problem that has affected this planet as a cancer. The old boys networks are still selfishly trying to continue business as usual but the selfishness has caused such a massive polarity that there is no hope whatsoever of maintaining the greed system that was. We will be seeing a transition in our lifetimes. Rather than worrying, the key is to get ready for it and active. As we admit what we have done wrong and confront it we'll start making progress back on the better path.

If we are serious about attaining a better world the rejection of inequality is mandatory. Ratio Theory requires of us that we voluntarily balance the amount of pay with the amount of play between ourselves and our neighbors. Greed is a criminal social problem that only exists among very imbalanced and ignorant individuals. We don't need worthless class warfare and we don't need conflict to demolish our true potential and lock all of us in comparative "prehistoric" times compared to what we could attain. The culture of avarice is the culture of hell on earth and it is our duty to turn against it. It is not a popular plight and it's not easy to do but the benefits outweigh the the detriments. Today's title is a partial reference pertaining to salvation and class warfare as depicted in the S.E. Hinton novel "The Outsiders" released April 24, 1967. Greed isn't worth it and it condemns all involved to patterns of substandard behavior. The proverbial "Greasers" never have much money and let's hope that the Socs (pronounced so-shez) decide upon of serious lifestyle change as soon as possible. The salvation of our planet's soul is at stake. Various topics are discussed.

I (John) ended up poisoned by toxic supermarket products and it took over four days before I recovered enough to get the show posted. Our world is really messed up and it's time to level the playing field. Greed has run rampant for centuries because abusive bullies insist that selfishness is the way it's going to be "or else". Yeah, people have been afraid for their jobs as well as their lives because dirty old men threaten us physically and economically. We've lived through centuries of abuse but it never seemed like it was going to end but we have something far greater to fear now. A tidal wave of excrement is on its way and I dub it the "D.U.D.U. Curve". Yeah dude, the party is, like over. Bummer dude, but the environment is way down, the population levels are way up, morals and religion are almost nonexistent, and debt and selfishness is through the roof. We can thank the culture of greed for this catastrophe and the consequences pending are of a severity of potentially biblical proportions - maybe worse. The greedy old men are going to continue shaking their fists and barking their lies like the mutts they are, but it's time to put these rabid dogs down. They have argued for the cause of hedonism and irresponsibility far beyond the brink of even the slightest semblance of sanity. Greed is a crime and it's advocates need to be first rejected followed by inevitable arrest. They have lied to us and they are nothing but criminals. They are also weak old bullies who were able to bark once upon a time, but the world has caught up with them in the most serious of manners possible. The problems cannot be avoided or hidden, and the computerized nature of reality has rendered the option of brutality difficult or impossible to perpetuate. The culture of greed is dying. Good riddance. The rest of us will be solving the problems and inheriting a much better world. No one has been truly profiting from any of the greed anyway. Selfishness and all of the side effects have been holding us back and we can all see that now. The problems are more serious than they have ever been but ours is a time of optimism. The digital age is here and our planet is in the process of placing itself under new management. We will be protecting our moral traditions and even strengthening the good aspects of our past as we make the changes required to sustain ourselves long into the future. We are at the point where change is no longer a proposition or a suggestion that the dirty old greedtards can reject. The dangers we face have rendered the dinosaurs of finance so utterly obsolete that the world will remember them for what they really are. Weak, selfish, liars woefully unfit even for the sewer. By no means can any of us underestimate the remaining potential evil of finance, but we must clearly come to the conclusion that the severity of the dangers and side effects we face because of greed infinitely outweighs the threats posed by degenerate addicts of money, laziness and hedonism. The abusive financial criminals at every level who have caused the disaster before us need not worry about skirting the consequences with trickery. They need to start asking themselves how many centuries it will be before the world forgives them for their crimes and releases them from the quarantine they will soon find themselves placed under. They need not blame us for talking about these subjects. They did it to themselves and so poisoned the world that the rest of us must now return to genuine goodness no matter what.

John here. After clearing out enough room for the cable guy, I did the absolute unthinkable this week. I reconnected the Satanic altar of television to my life after about four years of happy solitude. I realized that I had grown COMPLETELY out of touch with the hell of current events and popular "culture". I have only seen the Obama about 3 times since he became leader of the USA and I don't know a single song by the band Lady Gaga - whatever that is. Moralizing and preaching is fine for those who can hack it, but a person still needs to understand what the rest of the world is going through. Television since World War 2 has formed the collective mind of humanity. The altar of selfishness has replaced community and religion. Virtue has been replaced with commercials and a lot of junk we don't need. I don't like television and I probably vowed never to watch it ever again, but at the very least I'm going to have to sample the programming just to try and stay current. In case anyone is wondering I made a compilation of conspiracy videos shortly after cutting off my cable years ago and I titled it "Not Seen On TV" - as a spin off on "As Seen On TV" which is often used as the ultimate slogan for selling K-Tel type products and junk to people.

At some point during this miserable show I realized that half our world's problems - maybe more are probably caused by the insanity caused by drugs. This is directly linked to the greed problem and the end result is nothing but ridiculous chaos and mayhem. Nobody involved wins and the world ends up losing. A new development discussed is the UP UP DOWN DOWN syndrome. The debt is going UP, the population is going UP, the environment is going DOWN and morality/religion is going DOWN. This is the formula for global disaster and anyone who hasn't been doing drugs and/or greed might recognize that. There's no fun content on the show although I tried to talk about computer parts and that didn't amount to anything. I discussed rock bands including something called "HIM" which turns out to be Finnish - as in a Satanic band from Finland. The usual topics are covered in our anti-greed journal. If you can hack our content then consider yourself to be an accomplished realist. A large proportion of the rest of the planet's population still seems to want 99 of the 100 seats of the drug train. Mathematically, greed can't exist and function. It's not an invincible temptation or problem that is impossible to overcome. Once upon a time there was enough space left in the wilderness in which people could misbehave in chaotic peace but those days are over. The UP UP DOWN DOWN reality curve is about to force the world to change. The last vestages of the dinosaur thinkers from the analog age are finished. Grow a brain, get off drugs and tell the greedy old bosses what they need to hear. The party is over for us all, and they ain't got no bark nor bite that can change the UUDD curve.

Parity_Talk_March-28-2010__All_Apologies_24kbps Thomas failed to mention something about waving palms and the custom of waving to people is attributed to the Palm leaf greeting folks had for Jesus and the burro. Today's show is just the weekly talk - nothing special. The theme was mainly about issuing apologies for all our mistakes made as we near our two year anniversary of the show. If you happen to be one of the folks tuning in then you're probably part of a somewhat obscure crowd. We're not really promoting things commercially and I think were causing enough trouble already among the "Bernieberger" class of people who get the message but won't acknowledge it just yet. Our world has been stuck in a cancerous rut in which greed is supposed to be seen as the virtue of "hard work and success". The Berniebergers don't realize that the real work is about maintaining cooperation for the best overall results. This explains our "back to religion" message of the past few shows. We have to apologize for that too because we are living in a secular world where godless businessmen want to keep the world safe for business as they wreck as much as possible. The out of control greed is rife with every kind of side effect, and it's based totally on selfishness and hypocrisy but somehow the "Bernieberger" types keep promoting what they do as benevolent behavior. Greed after all is the "good cause" that helps people because it innovates while it injures and poisons the world and everyone in it. The cancer of greed was supposed to be invincible and too tempting to avoid - but slowly but surely people might start coming to their senses. After all Bernie Madoff was the chairman of NASDAQ and now he's doing time like some other Berniebergers we know. Greed and business *want* to rule the world, but by themselves they are unfit to do so. Greed doesn't lead to coordination, and even if business takes over it can never fulfill the spiritual needs of people. We need to believe in something more than just selfishness and materialism. Some people worry about the evildoers taking over but should they ever succeed in establishing a world based totally on Satanic greed, then civilization will utterly and totally collapse leaving nothing to celebrate. The best idea is to admit our mistakes and make the shift back toward spirituality and *gasp* religion of some sort. Religion involves discipline and a lot of people despise that, but we have to maintain civilization somehow. If people don't like the nature of religion, then get involved and help make improvements. Everyone wants to see improvements. Strangely enough religion is rather cost-effective. How much do rock tickets cost to see some greasy-beatnik guru and his band Krud that plays the generic rock? Does anyone ever complain about that? How much are the rock stars pilfering from their followers? Religion may not be as bad as some people say it is. Besides we're going to need some sort of spiritual social structure once people discover how badly we've been sold out by big business. Don't worry, business isn't "taking over". It's in for a rough ride thanks to the debt/population/environment curve. Fortunately we can change and solve problems. Drop the greed already - and if you're in a grubby secret society, QUIT. We have a few tips for helping you get out as well! I'll have to ask Thomas if he thinks this show was good or not. I was kind of asleep through most of it. :)

Parity_Talk_March-21-2010__Will_The_Wolf_Survive_24kbps I don't think anyone is happy about the cancer of evil in our world but how do we define it and how do we overcome the lies and counter-arguments? Sooner or later we have to decide what we are going to stand for. Will our choice be the common good or will it be greed? Will we retain healthy moral traditions worldwide, or will we let the Berniebergers of the world Ponzi and pyramid scheme our world to the brink of collapse? Aggressive behavior in all of its forms needs to be curbed. As discussed in our last show, we neither need nor will we tolerate another useless world war - especially one that has the potential of spiraling out of control. Weapons and technology have become more and more sophisticated while our moral traditions have declined. Greed and pop culture have polarized the world's wealth and the scales are going to end up rebalancing whether we like it or not. The hostile approach to life isn't going to solve anything and it won't be prevailing. Will those among us who have been behaving as financial wolves choose to voluntarily adapt to the new realities or are mean spirited people going to belligerently pursue their misbehavior to the bitter end? The wolf won't be surviving, but the world and it's fair and reasonable majority will. We discuss various current events, mention "ratio theory" and talk about the table being half-full. As our "fire follows fun" dictum states, we did at least discuss computers and backup software such as Acronis Trueimage in the show. We should *try* to lighten up but it's not always easy to do so. Someone has to keep brainstorming and forming the counter-arguments that will be used to retire greed from public service. 65 years is long enough. Some people despise the "back to religion" approach that we have adopted, but their reckless "religion" of greed and the "freedom" to be selfish and abusive isn't an alternative that any of us can endure. Here's a link to the John XXIII anecdotes from the book I bought for a whole $0.25 USD. (Well Canada/US currency exchange is almost at parity now)

Parity_Talk_March-14-2010__HIDING_BEHIND_HITLER_24kbps I misplaced my notes for the show we were going to do and I wasn't feeling very happy anyway so I talked to Thomas and explained the situation. I have noticed that those of us who advocate the abolition of greed and promote religion as a moral option end up being attacked as "fascists" sooner or later. I have experienced this in my own life. I don't hide my opinions and I freely express my contempt for every aspect of greed and sin. There have been times when I have been hasty and have cursed at it at length. Some of us myself included often wish that there were expedient ways of curing the financial cancer that is ravaging our world. Greed is evil but there are malicious greed addicts out there who still insist that greed is "freedom" and a lifestyle choice regardless of the number of people that end up deprived and injured because of it. Greed sympathizers have little if any valid foundation in which to criticize those of us who condemn their cancerous ways other than to slander us as "anti-freedom" and "New Hitlers". Over the course of the last couple of months I became completely sick of the tactics mean spirited people use to try and divert attention from their current crime spree of greed. Hitler caused the world tremendous problems but his reign of error lasted 12 years. The forces of greed and commercialism that took over promised the world everything but have left us with 6 and a half decades of debt and moral decline. The culprits have done this in a very clever manner. They hide behind Hitler. Every financial crime they commit they deem to be "acceptable" because they keep things quiet and they aren't mass murdering people out in the open. What Hitler did was wrong, but what the commercial forces have done since his defeat have been equal or worse in magnitude. We are not supporting what Hitler did. On the contrary. We are sick and tired of people using Hitler as a justification to hide the wrongs that they are doing right now. I didn't really want to bring this controversial topic up again but I felt I had to to set the record straight and repel the liars who wrongfully accuse those of us who are trying to advocate financial balance of the world. It is regrettable that there really are people so odious that they would rather label those of us working on the problem as some sort of "neo-fasicsts" rather than actually lend assistance to the cause. I have personally come to know people who are malicious as well as deceptive - but so delusional that they believe themselves to be right and justified in what they do. Hitler was wrong, but so have been the people who took over after his defeat. We have to start taking the issue seriously and confront what has happened before the debt, environment, and population curves catch up with us. This was a serious show about a dismal issue and I found it to be an unpleasant topic to have to discuss. Shame on every one of you who hides behind Hitler and does nothing to actually help counteract the real evil in our world. It's been greed for centuries and it's time for us to change.

Parity_Talk_March-07-2010__The_Majority_Must_Prevail_24kbps We started out with a discussion about the Satanic nature of the commercial cancer that has been causing more trouble than we need. It is our duty to solve the problems of our world and make our way back to a better tomorrow. The the principal myth of World War II continues to unravel and we have identified the fact that the mean spirited people among us have nowhere to hide. Certainly the party of hedonism is winding down and we are entering a time of transition like never before. The solution is our emphasis on the return to traditional values. Hedonism is not a virtue but it certainly has been confused with one by a dangerous multitude of people. There is no doubt that our planet has faltered but ultimately most people want to survive and that means that the majority must prevail and will prevail. There is a cancerous attitude at work in our world, and we are identifying it for what it really is. The good news and cause for much optimism is the fact that despite the scare tactics that are used by troublesome people, there will be no despotic world take over that is going to envelop us in insurmountable evil. The cancer of greed has threatened our very existence, and the population, debt and environmental realities have given us an ultimatum. We have to get back to cooperation and that means balanced morality rather than unrestrained hedonism. The hedonists have had nearly 7 decades to prove to us that their ideas would lead to true betterment. Technology has improved over the years but moral decline has been severe and the pending problems are more polarized than ever. We can all expect an era of change so we better get our priorities in order and get ready. We need to handle the transition intelligently and minimize the violence and conflict.

Parity_Talk_February-28-2010__The_Beast_Runs_Wild_24kbps We forgot about fun topics today. We forgot about a deliberately increased emphasis on optimism as well but we did come to the conclusion that some form of spirituality is needed now more than ever as the beast runs wild in our world. For lack of better words, we have too much reckless hedonism occurring and it's disrupting our health and cooperative capacities. We're not emphasizing too much doom, gloom and conspiracy but the global debt load is obviously going to catch up with us. The hedonism is catching up with us. This week I likened the problem to be similar to snow piling up on a roof. Debt isn't unpredictable. It's more like weight, and how much snow can the roof of the building take while the people inside go on partying like there's no tomorrow? Did the economic crisis evaporate or are the timbers starting to creak? Most people will still get angry at serious talk and say that it's someone else's problem. It's a bit cold outside but it might be a better idea to get out of the nightclub and figure out what kind of shelter is in order. I'm not sure the roof is going to hold for long. Various topics and current events are discussed. Thomas thought the show went well. I've been a bit sluggish and worried these days about what might be coming. Remind me to get on the optimism topics next week and get back to work on the 'long list' idea. We also discussed taking a more "back to religion" approach for the show and we don't care if that annoys the hedonists. They're too busy being Satanists and they ought to read the dictionary definition of a word or two now and then... By the way - Canada won 14 gold medals at the Olympics. Unbelievable but true.

Parity_Talk_February-21-2010__What_Would_Hitler_Do_24kbps Many Christians know the phrase W.W.J.D. "What Would Jesus Do" that's often stamped and engraved onto jewelry and other personal items. Thomas and I are sick of the international "Nazi" controversy and as a result I asked myself what Hitler rather than Jesus would do if he were alive in the world today. Most people would want him tortured and punished for the past, but how many people are addressing the crimes going on currently. Almost all of the people born AFTER Hitler's defeat are now retired, but unspeakable crimes occur daily and are ignored as frivolous. The insane Hitler regime did unspeakable damage to the world in its own time and more horrifying than that is the fact that he has served as the perennial bogeyman that the world's current abusers hide behind. All manner of crime and corruption goes on and it's rationalized as "acceptable" because it's not as overtly outrageous as the things Hitler did. We decided to discuss this subject and rip Hitler down to size. His legacy damaged millions of lives in the past but he also serves as a cover for the current evildoers. How many people do you know that point the finger at Hitler while committing crimes all on their own? All crime has to stop and we are not defending Hitler at all. Let me repeat, we are not defending Hitler at all. Computers and a few current events are discussed and then we talk a bit about the frustrating fact that most of the current commercialized world does not concern itself with the morals needed to maintain basic cooperation. If we wish to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past we had better get our act together NOW and stop lying.

Parity_Talk_February-14-2010__Commercialism_ISNT_Sociable_24kbps The false 'religion' of commercialism has done it's very best to usurp most aspects of the traditions that used to hold us together. It's not the end of the world just yet but we might be getting to that point thanks to the debt and population curve. A lot of people tell us that "no religion" is the magic solution that will solve our problems but in reality all that does is proliferate the already out-of-control hedonism that's ripping us apart. The hedonists don't like religion because religion actually insists that we base our actions on cause and effect rather than ego and opinion. This was a smooth moving show and we remembered to start out with some milder talk on the subject of computer buying. Various current events are also discussed.

Parity_Talk_February-07-2010__CORRUPTION_MEANS_FRICTION_24kbps We managed to talk about computer buying and cpu's today. Thank goodness we're not so serious all the time. The Olympics are almost here and they don't have enough snow but the East Coast is buried right now. Brother can you spare a popsicle? Anyway, today's show turned out better than usual and I think we are addressing the issues of common sense that have gone AWOL for far too many decades. It's been a world hypnotized by greed and fueled by expansionism but that phase of "prosperity" is a piece of history. The domino effect will be rendering changes and for certain the population curve means this is inevitable. The theme of today's show addresses the fallacy some of us are still clinging to, namely the belief that corruption benefits those who manage to "get away with it". The simple fact of the matter is that corruption means friction. It means the loss of cooperation and our overall well-being. Rather than worshiping the royalty and celebrities of the pyramid scheme, people need to decide whether they want genuine peace and resolution or continue on with the delusion until it kills us. The "casino" model of world finance is at its end and it's demise could be at any point. It's no longer a matter of opinion or a prolonged wait. A transition is inevitable so we had better straighten out our thinking and dedicate ourselves to education. If we start making the right choices we are going to end up with a much better future. If not, we are going to learn the hard way. Once we realize that corruption is friction wrought with ruinous side effects everything is going to change. It's not a winning scenario, it's a net loss everywhere it exists so why bother? Think about it.

Parity_Talk_January-31-2010__Murder_is_not_an_OPINION_24kbps The world is not governed by opinions, it's governed by hard reality. The people of our planet have been neglecting their actual responsibilities and living according to opinions that fit their preferences rather than what the truth really is. The essential change that we need has been postponed perpetually by people who argue their points based on self-interest and personal convenience. This has never been a nominal situation but the world limped by because it was underpopulated and underdeveloped. There were plenty of forests to cut down and lots of untouched space to pollute. We are living in a different world now and it's a world with escalating population and debt levels. The end result of planetary mismanagement is violence and social breakdown. The consequences are unavoidable unless we address the root cause of the problem directly. We're in trouble and that's not an opinion in need of debate. It's time to stop stalling and start telling the truth about what has really gone wrong. We can't lie our way out of pending doom caused by out-of-control population growth. We need to solve this problem and there are no "inexpensive" or military solutions that will do that for us. We have to continue to confront greed and diagnose it not as natural human nature but rather the flaw in human nature that can and must be corrected. We can start telling the truth and making corrections voluntarily, or the panic, riots and catastrophes are going to do it for us. Current events are discussed as well as the United States debt situation. It's a ticking time-bomb folks, but we can solve the problem and even secure inroads toward improvements and a better future. It only takes the will to do so.

Parity_Talk_January-24-2010__Capitalism_POLARIZES_24kbps One hour of sleep for me and broken computers at both ends but the show must go on. We are waiting for the pivotal event that will inevitably change the world. Greedy people seek greed and "capitalism" is if it's an opinion or lifestyle choice. They believe that selfishness is a personal choice and there are no discernible consequences so long as they remain polite. The fact of the matter is that greed polarizes the world. It separates the wealth and destroys natural circulation and parity. For fun stuff we talked about the new movie Avatar which loosely illustrates this basic point in story form. Current events, 'missing' technologies and other issues are discussed. It's not about criticizing those who "have more", it's about breaking the economic chains and getting back to a better world. It's about "mind over matter" rather than a Darwinian style "survival of the fittest" mentality that the deluded and evil subscribe to readily. The sort of world we need will manifest when we decide to make it happen. The sooner we outgrow the assumption that greed, capitalism and corruption benefit any of us, the sooner we will arrive at our destination.

Parity_Talk_January-17-2010__WHAT_BRAND_OF_BEAST_24kbps Everyone I've ever talked to freely admits the world has problems. That's been unanimous, but what do we do about it and why do billions of people participate in the actions that are causing the problems? Is it because they "can't do anything about it" or are they simply serving the mentality of the beast? Rather than having a world based on genuine spirituality, we've allowed ourselves to slip into commercialism without ideals. How many brands of water do we need on sale in the supermarket? Rather than supporting true religion, people have embraced brand loyalty in a misguided attempt to find contentment. We'll end up with a better world the sooner we decide to deal with the beast and it's false religion of greed. Everyone knows it's evil but most people remain convinced that it benefits a tiny few millionaires and billionaires. Once we realize that the pyramid scheme mentality fails all of us, we will rapidly transform our world for the better. Current events and a few computer issues (Wizmouse) are discussed. P.S. The intro isn't meant as a cheap shot about the beef in the world - it's simply my way of saying I'm sick of the way the world is wasting it's time and destroying it's future with the stupidity of greed. It's evil and everyone knows that but if it actually delivered then it would be evil but gainful. The reality is that greed is the wickedness that's the root of all sin and it keeps humanity backward. We need to stop believing in it and grow out of it.

Parity_Talk_January-10-2010__Spiritual_Leads_Secular_24kbps Oh we're trying! We're trying to get back to the "Fire Follows Fun" format for the show in which we discuss the lighter topics first then move toward the "Fire and Brimstone" anti-greed topics a bit later on. Okay, so today we have fun. We're talking about computers. The free Clamwin AntiVirus program is discussed, and freeware PosteRazor is discussed. This program allows you to make posters of virtually any size using your printer at home. We spent some time discussing our favorite writing pens as well. Fun stuff. Then we moved toward the more serious topics. We're discussing the need to stand for something and we believe that the spiritual and religious are more important right now than ever. The secular commercial approach to living is pure cancer. We're interested in reviving the common good and getting back to a lifestyle based on fairness rather than greed, exploitation and the mindless culture of product sales. Commercial minded people have pretended to be "peaceful and good" for far too long. They've swarmed our world with their cancer and they proselytize their commercialism with arrogance and vigor far worse than any missionary or Jehova's Witness ever did. Capitalism and the "Good Ole Boys" of the Lodge-Cults need the door slammed in their face once and for all. The commercialists think they are in the right but in reality they're the most destructive and criminal class of people the world has ever seen. How much nerve do these people have, and how long is it going to take before they finally realize they're not truly liked by anyone and they're not welcome anywhere near those of us who seek to be reasonable with one another? Religion and spirituality may have it's problems, but we can work on it. Commercialism is nothing but a cult and culture of poison.

Parity_Talk_January-03-2010__NO_SHOW_24kbps So far common sense is a NO SHOW, so we can only maintain our audio journal and document the evolving anti-avarice ideals. Humanity remains convinced that crime pays and filthy degenerates are "getting away with it". No, that's not the case. We need a world without rich OR poor people to muck things up for the rest of us. This was such a bad week that we spent more time discussing cartoons than much else. There's nothing going on in the world anyway except a gradual rot of the pyramid scheme system. It's slated to collapse because people can't really get away with misbehavior any longer and the world is too full to keep junking everything up with more "expansion". We'll keep you posted. Remember, so long as a few of us insist on maintaining common sense, we make it very difficult for the greed and drug addicted fools to believe their delusions of grandeur and go hog wild.
