 From the outset FFL was categorized into Yahoo-Groups as a spiritual group. 
Yahoo does command us as a Yahoo-group to stay within topic and to moderate 
ourselves..  That may take some self-discipline and maybe even some restraint 
in some people’s inclinations. That is fine towards a greater communal good 
that is focused consideration of things spiritual.

 

 Spiritual..
 


 

From the MVS Thesaurus: 

 Spirituality

 Description In 1957, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi said that:   'Spiritual development 
is the birthright of everyone, for it is the unfoldment of the essential nature 
of the soul, or inner consciousness…. Soul is the individual property of 
everybody. It is the natural and inseparable possession, nay, the very 
existence, of every man. Everybody has the right to enjoy his own possession. 
Everybody has the right to enjoy the sat [truth] chit [Being] ananda [bliss] 
nature of his own soul. In the most natural manner, everybody has every right 
to enjoy permanent peace, bliss eternal, which is the nature of his own soul.'  
 -- Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Thirty Years Around the World—Dawn of the Age of 
Enlightenment, Volume One 1957-1964 (Netherlands: MVU Press, 1986), p. 195.
Some people feel that the outer or material joys of life are opposed to, or 
diminish, the spiritual value, and that one has to give up, or become detached, 
from material values in order to achieve inner fulfillment.   Below is a short 
video of Maharishi reflecting on the topic of spirituality. Here Maharishi 
points out that inner spirituality does not conflict with the outer material 
value of life: See video 
onhttp://www.enlightenmentforeveryone.com/spirituality/. 
http://www.enlightenmentforeveryone.com/spirituality/   Maharishi always said 
we should enjoy 200% of life—100% of the inner spiritual value along with 100% 
of the outer material value. He offered Transcendental Meditation as a simple 
way to integrate abstract absolute being with the concrete details of the 
relative.
 

 Thx, Judy, I agree with that (connectedness of relative topics are ultimately 
"Spiritual").  It's part of Buddhist principles: interconnectedness and 
dependent origination. One might superficially label a topic as being 
non-Spiritual; but with further elucidation the connection may reveal itself.  
Also, there's the question of degrees of separationhow many one can allow 
but this is a value judgment as to how many degrees of separation constitute 
relatedness.  
 For example, it's easy to show that everybody on the planet is connected to 
Kevin Bacon, but some people may have 100 degrees of separation, while others 
that costarred with him in movies have only one degree.
 Last, a topic can be presented with no apparent relation to Spirituality and 
there's simply no need to state how the connection is constructed.  It all 
becomes revealed in the bigger picture.
 Thanks again!

Judy, of course it's not the intent of Democrats to subjugate blacks or do
evil. But *control* is an issue with any group the Democrats take under their
wing of protection. Everybody has to be promised *something*, thrown a bone,
for their support after they have been convinced that they are a victim and the
mean nasty republicans are out to screw them. Party bosses have been known to
get tough with people that they need to control. Richard Daily was another
example of a boss mentality and if you've ever been a union member, you should
know what's up with them.
I forget the name of the author of the biography that wrote the LBJ quote.
Many have tried to prove it was never said and prove other things the author
said were wrong but generally end up agreeing that he's pretty spot on. The
quote was reportedly made on Air force One in the presence of two governors.
D'Souza insinuates in his film that it may have been a black steward serving
coffee that over heard LBJ make the remark. It is no secret that LBJ used the
*n* word frequently and spoke disparagingly of blacks in general, even in the
presence of negro White House staff.

Mike, there are two different issues here. One has to do with the actual
effects of the policies; the other has to do with the *intention* of the
policies. The first issue is very complex, and we could cite competing
statistics and so on at each other for weeks.
It's the second that I'm saying is despicable: the accusation that it was the
Democrats' *intention* to "tear black families apart, keep them in ghettos and
killing each other and make them dependent on their Democratic masters."
As to the LBJ quote, no, it isn't "well documented." The fact that right-wing
Web sites quote it all the time does not constitute documentation. See this
discussion on Reddit (especially the first comment) for an examination of the
quote's origin and authenticity:

leading to higher rates of crime, gang activity, drug use and violence, dooming
extremely high numbers of young black men to lives in the criminal justice
system and poverty.
Yes, a percentage are lifted up but I seriously doubt it is because of the
policies but rather in spite of them. It has always been that way. Some people

Yes, this was example of internet argumentation devolving into personal
insult. Of the moving from consideration of ideas to contending personal
assault, as Ben Franklin was pointing out about consideration and contending.
Sort of a corollary to Godwin’s Law, that as internet discussions go on long
enough sooner or later someone will start in with personalized insult meant to
personally degrade and be hurtful of others.
As Franklin also points out in his autobiography this can take a bit of
humility for some people to abstain from the personalized assault and stay with
ideas.
“My list of virtues continued at first but twelve; but a Quaker friend having
kindly informed me that I was generally thought proud, that my pride showed

2016-07-25 Thread Mike Dixon mdixon.6...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]

Gee Doug, I didn't start the thread. Where was *anyone* going spiritually 
group mediation ends slavery in America? Thom's a *big boy*, he has a delete 
button and can choose to read or delete anything he chooses. I know I do. When  
I used to get a hundred e-mails a day from FFL, I bet I deleted 90% of them. or 
more. 
You also know how threads digress quickly on FFL. Whenever I see a blanket 
statement that I know is plain wrong, I'm usually going to speak up, even if 
that person is offended that I don't agree with them..If you want to go 
somewhere *spiritual*l with this, knowledge is structure in consciousnesses or 
one man's truth is another man's lie.

Nope - this isn't a play in the field of duality where both sides are 
equivocated to be the same. When the Democrats blow it as they regularly do, I 
don't walk around with stars in my eyes. 

The Republicans have become a barren and thoughtless party, who have even less 
to offer than the opposition. This isn't about denying the truth, it is about 
pointing out that those who are constantly going negative have nothing to back 
themselves up with - It is emptiness, slander and bluster. Not much of a 
platform, and the current candidate is true to form. You mention a few ideas 
they have proposed, like vouchers, that essentially went nowhere, because they 
were poorly thought out, and don't work in the real world. 

Their main thrust, that of "just saying NO", is not a productive or patriotic 
stance - it is cowardly and weak. As for Republicans being for smaller 
government, every time they get into office, deficits soar. They aren't even 
true to their own principles. Again, a sign of debilitating weakness, like a 
barking dog held fast by its own chain of incompetence.

 Republicans offer better ideas and solutions to social and econ0mic problems 
all the time but if they don't fit the agenda of control that Democrats can 
exorcise for their political power they aren't acceptable and stiffled

 Example, Republicans want better education for children, especially for black 
children who are harmed most by poor education. They want parents to be able to 
send their kids to a school that they choose by offering a voucher to the 
family, so their federal tax dollars follow the kid to the school of his 
parents choice. But that insults the teachers unions who are in the pocket of 
the Democrats. Who wins out, the kid or the union?It's too much competition for 
the teachers. It's not fair!

 

  Democrats want *one size fits all* solutions that are federally managed. 
Republicans want states to be in charge of their own destiny and allow *50 
laboratories* of democracy so everyone can see which ones works best and adopt 
it for their own or improve on it.
 Example: I'm all for marijuana being a states issue as opposed to a federal 
issue. Let each state decide how to handle the situation. Some may legalize, 
while others sit back and watch to see what problems arise and if they are 
worth dealing with. Maybe there are actually benefits, who knows. Let each 
state decide for it's self and let the other states observe.
 

 Bottom line, Democrats want to control everything, that is real power and 
power is corruptible.. Republicans want less control and more free market 
ideas. At least that's what they used to be for.

 This is particularly despicable:
 

 a welfare system to tear black families apart, keep them in ghettos and 
killing each other and make them dependent on their Democratic masters.
 

 In any case, whatever the historical situation, the *current* party of racism 
is unquestionably the Republicans, specifically Trump Republicans; the

You can deny, deny, deny, all you want. But if you honestly examine the effects 
these policies have had on the black family since the early sixties, you can't 
deny it.70% illegitimacy rate today, whereas before the sixties, it was less 
than 20%. One parent households have been disastrous for the black community, 
leading to higher rates of crime, gang activity, drug use and violence, dooming 
extremely high numbers of young black men to lives in the criminal justice 
system and poverty.
Yes, a percentage are lifted up but I seriously doubt it is because of the 
policies but rather in spite of them. It has always been that way. Some people 
rise regardless of their circumstances. But the poverty rate today is almost no 
different today than it was before the implementation of the *Great Society*, 
who's *reported* intent was to eradicate poverty.But these policies have not 
just effected black families, it is trickling through out the rest of society 
as well.
When you combine this with the quotes I made earlier from LBJ, which are well 
documented, "I have to give them something, not enough to make a difference, 
just enough to keep them quiet and I'll have *niggers* voting Democratic for 
the next two hundred years". Well... I don't know what else you can call that. 
It speaks for it's self.

 "Something internal has to take place.." 

 You all seem beyond consideration, to be at the impasse of just name-calling 
exchanges in contending and no longer considering.  FFL being a spiritual 
group, what is the deeper concern in this?  The spiritual, if you could 
consider that. 
 NPR Marketplace had an amazing bit of journalism on Friday looking at racism 
in America today.  The edited down transcript as on the webpage did not include 
the more interesting analysis of where we are at now with racism that was in 
the original.  About half way through the full audio piece the piece came down 
to the transcendence of the matter.

eugenics, Woodrow Wilson and the resurgence of the Klan in the twentieth

where the Republicans stood and voted on these issues which Alan doesn't.
All Alan does is poo poo D'Souza and tries to down play his confinement and

only person to be convicted and sentenced to jail time, weekly psychological 
counseling, and community service for giving too much money to a political

That's all I'm hearing - bash, bash, bash. Nothing wrong with accepting that 
not everything is rosy in the country, but you are becoming very 'one trick 
pony'. Why not provide a list of the Republican Party's latest accomplishments, 
and build from there? ...kind of a trick question, I admit...

fantasy of America is the Right One. Pathetic, and flaming out quickly. It will 
be interesting to watch them all act out like two year olds when a woman is

The problem is a complete inability to learn or adjust. First they tried Bush 
who fucked things up so badly, he and Cheney practically ended civilization as 
we know it, including bringing about the worst attack ever on American soil. 
Then their answer to that complete debacle is...Trump. They can't seem to get a

The first rule of the con- man is when the con is discovered, deny deny deny! 
Then point your finger at  the one that discovers the con and blame him and 
accuse him,a Saul Alinsky technique.Bill Clinton's advice to Jennifer Flowers 
on their affair being discovered, "just  blame it on the Republicans"!Hillary 
Clinton, "it's all part of a vast right-wing conspiracy"!
Dinesh D'Souza does a real number on the secret history of the Democratic 
party.  The deal is, it never was a secret, it's always been a matter of public 
record, if you went looking. The Dems always blamed someone else for the 
failures of their policies, which were meant to enrich themselves. The Clintons 
have just taken the Democratic scams to a new level, a global level on 
steroids, taking in hundreds of millions to the Clinton Foundation, from 
foreign nationals and governments for influence in the US government. They've 
moved from selling the Lincoln bedroom and selling pardons to rich criminals, 
to selling America to the highest bidder and they do it for... "the children".

Republicans. Dinesh D'Souza points out in his film that actually only 
about 1% of them did. The rest *died on the vine* as Southern 
Democratic strategies changed..The south went strongly Republican as a 
result of the failed Jimmy Carter administration. They've been strong 
Republican states since, with the exception of two Southern white boys 
named Clinton and Gore who brought those states back to the Republican 
party.
The only thing that the Republicans would have in common with 
Jefferson Davis is a belief in a  strong tenth amendment, limitations 
of the federal government. Davis would never have supported 
abolition,full civil rights and full citizenship for former slaves, 
Women's Suffrage, the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, Federal 
troops enforcing integration of the Little Rock Schools. These were 
targeted means of limiting the tenth amendment, strongly supported by 
Republicans with strong opposition by Democrats.

The only way you'd get Presbyterians to blow themselves up in this country, is 
to invade the US for a few decades, destroy most semblance of security or 
prosperity. Fight many fierce battles on American soil - obliterate whole towns 
and cities. Install an occupying force in all the population centers - build 
military bases to control the population. Then, and only then, would you get 
Presbyterians, Southern Baptists, and yes, even Episcopalians, strapping on a 
vest, to 'get even'.

So when you quoted him, you deliberately left out the "at least, not just" and 
"We are also..." parts in an attempt to distort the context. 

 Typical.

It appears you see no correlation between the escalation of terrorist activity, 
and our ongoing military invasion of the Middle East for the last 35 years. 
Instead, blame it on the inferior non-Christians, those crazy lunatics that 
just won't sit still while we exterminate them - the nerve. Did I get that 
right?

Of course you didn't mention that the Civil Rights Act wouldn't have passed 
without Republican support, nor the Voting Rights Act or Women's Suffrage . 
More Republicans, who were the minority party, voted for the Civil Rights Act 
than Democrats.Goldwater was never elected and the Republican party distanced 
themselves from him since. George Wallace was a life long Democrat. It's 
commonly said by Democrats that all the Southern segregationist Democrats 
became Republicans. Dinesh D'Souza points out in his film that actually only 
about 1% of them did. The rest *died on the vine* as Southern Democratic 
strategies changed..The south went strongly Republican as a result of the 
failed Jimmy Carter administration. They've been strong Republican states 
since, with the exception of two Southern white boys named Clinton and Gore who 
brought those states back to the Republican party.
The only thing that the Republicans would have in common with Jefferson Davis 
is a belief in a  strong tenth amendment, limitations of the federal 
government. Davis would never have supported abolition,full civil rights and 
full citizenship for former slaves, Women's Suffrage, the Civil Rights Act, the 
Voting Rights Act, Federal troops enforcing integration of the Little Rock 
Schools. These were targeted means of limiting the tenth amendment, strongly 
supported by Republicans with strong opposition by Democrats.

    The Democratic Party was split in 1860 between the Northern and Southern

wanted to leave the issue of slavery up to the residents of the territory.

has been solidly Republican, with the exception of 1976 and 1992 when 2

Good summation.  “States-Rights” all along has always been codeword for 
“slavery”.  

 Yep, the hard-bit ‘States-rights-ers’, I have spent years in re-enactment 
cavalry groups, riding and encamped in events in both Federal and rebel groups, 
and heard this ‘States-rights’ ad nauseum from some lot of folks who were quite 
evidently attached to familial story..  

 Re-enacting is interesting because it allows you moments to walk in 
perspectives of other people’s shoes.  Within historical Am Civil War 
re-enactment some re-enactment groups have both Federal and rebel uniforms and 
equipment and willingly re-enact on either side depending on what is needed to 
be portrayed at particular events.  Then, some other groups form specifically 
to portray one side or the other as heritage groups, and will not stoop to 
portray the other side. Typically those kind of groups are rebel groups, they 
are the a kind of nutty energy inside.  Riding and encamped with them it always 
sounded and felt like going out on a KKK rally with the rebel cavalry group. 
Particularly at re-enactments held in any of the former slave holding States.

 The States-rights zealots go round and round, ‘..it wasn’t about slavery but 
States-rights’.  But they don’t read the historical declarations of even their 
own portrayed States in the seceding from the Union, over slavery.  
 

 At re-enactments as an antidote to this all I would print up a stack of 
handbills that were the distilled language of the US 1850 Fugitive Slave Law 
and then tape them up on doors opposite the seat inside toilet stalls for all 
to quietly read.  The effect always muted the conflict. Truth triumphs.
