the dark prism of we the people
a refracted truth
What’s the adage: When one door closes, another opens. And it only takes walking through the one to the next while crossing over the threshold and closing the old door to see the grass on the other side. Or is that the fence and looking over: It’s always greener, but. Only, one will never know until they cross, jump, or climb over, right? But, from either perspective, if one doesn’t understand the premise thereof, how does one know if it’s better or even in line with the intent of being better? And as such, the history of the world is a kaleidoscope, and government became the visual component to create order out of chaos. Government being theoretical glass, bringing the hidden colors in light into alignment through the prism of word clarity; the color spectrum of truth. Yet, power also became the kaleidoscope of government to make chaos out of order presenting an endless variety of babel as the order of alignment.
Example: The two-party system of American power, a kaleidoscope of wording to discombobulate a palette of operational principles into confusion to an obtuse electorate. Those all too willing to follow, opposed to learning the intent of design. The same doctrine used in the religion versus faith argument. Religion’s desire to take from and give to, only who’s actually receiving. Those becoming richer while the poor grow poorer? Whereas faith is believing without seeing, the inherent Word and desire to help others through self.
And like the religion versus faith argument, in America’s government, until one decides to ascertain truth, the disenfranchising of WE THE PEOPLE will continue unabated. The vicious cycle for veracity while those who care, ponder; what is a lie versus what is truth. The ability to learn from clearly laid forth ideals, while the indolence of life made easy by the promise of government precludes any effort to comprehend. And unless one understands history, human nature, or truth, one will never see through the kaleidoscope of government in lieu of the glass prism of faith to gain order out of chaos.
And while evolution continues to manipulate the national landscape from faith based to a singular secular concept of undefinable limits where anything goes, bear in mind, the words of the most ardent of liberals then: … before any human institutions of government were known in the world, there existed, if I may so express it, a compact between God and Man, from the beginning of time … and that all laws must conform themselves to this prior existing compact, and not assume to make the compact conform to the laws, which, besides being human, are subsequent thereto … (Thomas Paine). So, as ardent liberals today claim there is no God, therefore religion is nonsensical unless it’s to Party, faith itself then becomes a strict loyalty to those who decide outcomes: God a mythical being.
Except, throughout the centuries, many others also recognized the “compact” of God to man: And I detested all the fruits of my toil under the sun, because I must leave them to the one who is to come after me. And who knows whether that one will be wise or a fool? Yet that one will take control of all the fruits of my toil and wisdom under the sun. This also is vanity. … The last word, when all is heard: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this concerns all humankind; because God will bring to judgement every work, with all its hidden qualities, whether good or bad (Ecclesiastes 2:18-19/12:13). And in conclusion, the nation’s Framers implied a fourth branch of government to perpetuate the country for future posterity. Thus, to understand the Constitution while recognizing man’s desire to control others, including the prism of light refracting through the government should reflect the power in and of WE THE PEOPLE.
Vanity: emptiness, futility, absurdity (from the Hebrew word hebel)
