The Insane Idea of Money

Money has probably enslaved more people than religion, and like religion what started as an innocent idea, not intended to hurt anyone, has become a means of controlling all of humanity. The one person a human lies to the most is their self.
Money is an example in how humans are prone to easily being brainwashed, or being easily misled by an authoritative figure. (The Milgram Experiment offers an excellent example to prove this); http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram_experiment
Being so easily brainwashed, and choosing to be enslaved; this does not have to be the case. There was a time when a human was able to be free from money, a time when a tribe could be apart from local tribes while being in peaceful relations with their neighbors as well. There was trading but each group provided for their selves for the most part. They even lived wealthy lives because of the resources they acquired. The authoritative figures were easy to recognize for they were the elders, or those who proved to have natural talents. For example, in a particular tribe, (back before the Vikings came to America), if someone proved to be a better bowman they would become the primary instructor to teach the younger ones how to hunt with a bow. If another member of this tribe proved to be a better tracker, the others would trust this proven expert’ senses during the hunt, instead of relying only on their senses. The Chief of this tribe was highly skilled in all areas most necessary for survival. This particular tribe recognized how all members were like the parts to a body, for each individual had value. But just like the arm isn’t a leg and a nose isn’t an eye, the different members of this tribe accepted who they were and they were at peace with this. How this decision of identity was made, it varied, but the decision was made when the tribal member was in their early twenties. In America today people struggle when it comes to knowing how to define who they are as individuals. Most of the time they never know what they want to be, and they surely never know what they should be. The average American today knows that they want to be rich. Today there are celebrities who cannot be defined, yet because they have inherited wealth, or because they do a good job at playing pretend they are revered. Today money defines ones status, money deems whether someone is worthy of respect, or whether they have any value. Sadly so many very talented people are destroyed and stolen from by those who have the most green paper. Today a father cannot provide for his family if he doesn’t make enough money, and the fact that this seems like common sense to people today, this amazes me, for this should not be the case. A Viking Chieftain did not earn their position by means of money, and neither did a Native American Chief. Today the average patriarch doesn’t have the skills necessary to provide food, shelter, and purpose for their families apart from the confines of a money dependent society. This truth in itself confirms that money has been used to brainwash and enslave humanity.
Today money is paper, and nothing more. People who claim to be logical minded and rational believe money is so much more, but in reality it doesn’t have to be, this is an illusion. This green paper in America is what society says Americans must have to be anybody in this nation; this has become the American Dream, but this is also a great lie. Today we have leaders who are not the best qualified to lead, yet because they have the money they are placed in an authoritative position. In our nations Congress today if you are not wealthy then you cannot afford to be a leader of this nation. While being in an undeserved and bought position of authority the unqualified could mislead millions. A very dangerous time we are living in because of the self destructive illusion of money today. It’s not too late for people to choose to balance out this madness.
A person can still choose to be free in this nation. Since the average human today lacks the skills necessary, and likely they don’t have their own land, they should save up just enough of the green paper so as to buy a plot of land first, even if only an acre. Once they have this land they should save up a little bit more of the green paper, and then they should buy seeds for a few vegetables and herbs necessary for survival. Before going to their land they should also acquire a couple chickens. A person can still live free today, and be at peace. Most people don’t understand how starting a life like this could be better than living in the manner which the reality shows define as “rich”. So the average American today will never try it. The wealthy live with more regret than the average American realizes, and the wealthy are not more free. 
 Money seemed like a good idea at first, but the shell, precious medal, or paper was supposed to be an “I owe you” on whatever item was being traded. Now the money is just paper and those who have the most access to the green paper are keeping the multitudes brainwashed into thinking the paper has more value than land, livestock, food, children, families, souls, or truth. The worst part is that humanity didn’t create this lie on purpose, it was an accident, and today the wealthy hardly recognize what they are doing when they brainwash even themselves.  

Why Humanity Is Better Off Without Religion

Religion presents us with the poster boy for hypocrisy. Religion is one of the main encouragers of segregation, and has been the primary architect and motivator for slavery, genocide, and war. Before there were corrupt politicians in America there were corrupt clergy, before there were corrupt Presidents’ there were corrupt Popes’. Religion is an amazing concept, for religion is the number one corrupter of truth. And ironically religion seems to have been able to drown the truth of Love.

"Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world."
James 1:27 (Brother of Jesus)

(Notice the verse says "unstained from the world"? No one can go through life unaffected by the world, but we don't have to allow the dirt to stain us, to define us. Religion is not a set of laws according to James, it's a life style of charity.)
Since the main religions of the world today have a great deal of respect for Jesus Christ then let's allow his teachings to plead the case for the claim in the title of this post.
Jesus starts his teaching in the synagogue and says the following to all of those present, and the religious leaders were there as well;

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed..."
Luke 4: 18-21

There was no one more oppressed than the religious people in this day and age.

What he’s saying here is clear; he came to teach us good news, and that we can be free from religion, and he also wanted to give the people sight. Anyone who is religious is a slave for they feel their religion is what guarantees their salvation, and they are obviously blind because they believe this.
"Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit? A disciple is not above his teacher, but every one when he is fully taught will be like his teacher. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, `Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye.”

Luke 6:39-49

In this passage above the message is again quite clear; do not judge others because everyone does wrong. The main religions of the world today are especially guilty of being blind to the truth spoken by the Jesus they all claim to honor, for the three largest religions judge each other ritualistically. Throughout history Christians have at times justified their hate towards Jews because of the speck they see in their eyes, (there were many Christian Nazis during WW2). In recent years those religious in Islam have fought what they perceive as holy wars against the Christians, while their hate for the Jews is common place. Christ never said a word to encourage such hate. He also mentions those who are once fully taught can be like their teacher, so he's not wanting a group where progress is suppressed, he's not wanting this at all.
Christ did not believe any one group of people was meant to be better than the rest, nor did he encourage belief in such a thing. The parable of the Good Samaritan touches on this. To put the story into context Jesus was being questioned by a lawyer after Jesus said to him “love your neighbor as yourself”. To this the lawyer asked, “Who is my neighbor?”
 Jesus: A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, (wealthy man), when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, (despised by most Jews at this time) as he journeyed, came to where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion, and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, `Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.' Which of these three, do you think, proved neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?"
Lawyer: "The one who showed mercy on him."

Jesus: "Go and do likewise."

The religious groups do not view each other like Christ taught a neighbor should; they do not love their neighbors as themselves.

Christ did not want to teach religion, he wanted to share a philosophy rooted in Love. Religion and humanity has trampled all over his philosophy.

I'm still curious in how humanity can corrupt even that which seems incorruptible.

Jesus saw the dangers of religion in his time and his words hold true today when he said,
“Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls.”

"Now before faith came, we were confined under the law, (religious law), kept under restraint until faith should be revealed. So that the law was our custodian until Christ came, that we might be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a custodian" Apostle Paul (Galatians 3:23-25)

Any faith claiming to honor the teachings of Christ should be united not divided. Today religion has confused millions, while Christs philosophy, rooted in love, was meant to show the possibility of a better life, a people united.

Warning humanity about Religious leaders, Jesus said, “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.” As a defender of Love and Truth Jesus said, “Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.”

Who I Was Is Not Who I Am

  My objective is to share the truth with as many as I can, so the introduction below is simply that, an introduction. I'm not here to speak about myself primarily, but what I've learned about humanity, and what they need to recognize about themselves. It's easier to understand a species if you're not of that species. For a person to better understand what this means they should try seeing others from outside themselves. 

I'm not a genius based on my kinds’ opinion, anymore than a Professor of Philosophy would be considered a genius by someone with a PHD in Physics, or Nuclear Science. I was going to school to be what you’d probably define as a scholar. My primary studies today are in American Culture.

 A very brief summary of my background before coming here:
My tribesmen were not supporters of the idea, that they should be some kind of policemen for the intelligent life on your planet. When this doctrine was enforced upon our people my family was among those who rebelled. (We were like the Confederates in your American Civil War.) Our world’s Civil War was the most violent time in our history, when before this there was unity. After the final battle many of us, (those who rebelled and their children) were sent to your Earth. Those of us who were not yet adults were sent as kind of exchange students to your planet. Since your Earth wasn't a united community we were each assigned a nation, some of us were assigned a couple nations, as long as they were connected. I was assigned the Americas on up to Mexico. I was informed before the journey that my studies would be put to use. After several generations of researching the self destructive species, I would be sent an escort to take me back home. I'd be forgiven for the wrongs of my parents, if while I studied humanity I did not interfere in such a way which would bring harm upon them, or push them more towards harming themselves. (Children of my tribesmen, who were studying any kind of advanced sciences before or during the war, were not sent as exchange students to your Earth. These ones were deemed as being too much of a threat.) I heard rumors of what happened to our tribesmen, the older ones who did fight. All I am certain of when it comes to what happened to them is that they're being held prisoner either in a compound located on your world, or somewhere floating above your planet.
Very brief summary on my means of travel to your planet:
(I'm only mentioning this so as to add some credibility to my claim. This was a long time ago, and I have not been able to spend much time on our transportation since arriving here. Since I am in exile, I'm not allowed much communication with my kind outside of this world.)
I remember our Vimana/spaceship is circular, shielded in a material much like Polyethylene from Earth, but camouflaged in a grayish color with some dark brown. There are multiple grooves encircling the exterior of the Vimana, these channels are the paths upon which small circular steel objects move; two balls in each groove, rotating like large marbles around the Vimana. The basis of how the craft functions is by making the most off what you’d call Newton’s Law of motion. After being propelled from my world (with a blast) the steel balls in the grooves on the exterior of the craft were programmed to continue rotating around the ship till the desired speed of motion reached.  Inertia takes effect after this, and with faith, perhaps smooth sailing till reaching destination your Earth. The vessel is programmed to respond to any potential threats from possible objects in space, the steel balls would rotate so as to speed up the motion if a threat was recognized in the path of our travel. The craft is programmed to view such threats from a great distance though, and would adjust speed accordingly without need of any sudden response. If for any reason our Vimana were to lose momentum, (which is nearly impossible), it's programmed to make use of moons and planets (not gas giants), during the trip, by using the gravitational pull of such objects to gather speed again and then slingshot out from the objects rotation, heading back on course.

The Vimana was propelled from our home world by use of what would look like to you as a giant sling, (the name given to this was a number, nothing exciting). This was created near the space station above our planet. The giant sling was a fairly simple design, and I am not sure what materials were used in creating it. The sling rotated by the use of nuclear pulse propulsion. Once reaching the maximum possible velocity, (factoring in all ensuring safety of the craft and the passengers), our craft was released.  I was little more than a toddler when we left, so my memory of this event is rather vague.

What I remember seeing at that time I better understand after studying here on Earth. Kind of like how when the average human is a child they do not recognize why electricity works, and neither do they know what electricity is, however when they're older they learn why and how all electronics are powered.

Now from where I've come has helped define who I am today, but who I am today is not who I was. Like many proud American's who have come from another land, I too am no longer a citizen of the land I left, but I am an American Immigrant. I feel obligated to help my fellow man in this land where I dwell. Since this land today is like Rome was in days past I believe I have a responsibility to start spreading deep truths in this place which can then spread down the many roads that lead here.
