I give up. I'm tired of the sacarine sweet, <snip>
----------------------------
Rickster - I am always amazed at how a single word, can open up and floor
our souls, w/ pictures of understanding. How appropriate that word
"sacarine" to this very discussion...
Immediately I see, a sterile factory floor, heavily mechanized atmosphere,
laborers w/ mask tied firmly around their faces, head covering, aprons and
gloves, as to not get too close to each other and contaminate the desired
"sweetness". Busy they are in regulated hourly "productivity", with
"supervisors"
apparent in designated garment and demeanor. All working a corporate
formula, designed for no variation, all in the "processing of marketable
sweetness." At the entrance of this production facility - we see clearly -
a reminder of their advertising campaign - a huge "billboard of promise" -
"According to the Institutional Church-amedical Associations - This
Synthetic is Better for Your Health! Not on the billboard in word, but
underwriting - comes the thought - "Shoot! If I switch to this method of
sweetness, I may even - live forever."
..........Contrasted........
A field of swamp land, blistering hot sun, humidity so hot it could gag a
maggot, pesky blood sucking mosquitoes, snakes and varmints ... heard among
the "canes" is a faint tired voice... "It's NOT easy being a natural!" \O/
.........Conclusion: The "billboards of promise" at the entrance of
that - hostile Zion.........
Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto
Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain
gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
