Robinhood:
Thanks for your thoughtful response. There are two things that concern me here in this profusion of information. If you will allow me, I would like to use this as a place to bring them forth.
1. There are some really pertinent FACTS 'out there' that get lost to the public as a whole because they are couched with the language of hatred. If we are going to 'wake people up', we can't be shooting them in the 'gut' with 'emotive tirades' at the same time we are trying to get them to use their considerable, albeit sleeping, minds.
Case in point: The infamous 'School Shooting Map'. This is an absolutely dynamic piece of information, which on the surface has the potential of awakening even the most ignorant among us. But the Cutting Edge Ministries cannot just put forth the information; they must couch it in terms of hatred thus destroying their whole point. Most people don't have time to research and study so they have to use their limited ability to discern whether something is credible or not.
When I showed the School Shooting Map to people I know, they were stunned. But the moment they found out where it was coming from they were immediately turned off and went back to sleep. HERE WAS THIS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING FACT that told us that something/someone was orchestrating these horrific events. (Did you know you could throw Waco and OK City on the lines as well?!) In any event it was a flaming torch that could have lit the imagination across this entire country except that the 'Messenger' cloaked the FACT in hatred and thus appeared ignorant. No one wants to be associated with obvious Ignorance, so the FACT gets lost and EVERYBODY stays IGNORANT. More's a pity.
I see that this same thing sometimes happens on this Post and that too is sad. Can't we just call a spade a spade? The Good Guys are the Good Guys; the Bad Guys are the Bad Guys. Period!(The Faction ID works well) It doesn't matter what creed or nationality. After all, we have at least potential control over our minds; But we have no control over what country we were born in or what religion our parents raised us. When we argue the things we can control, we are not then shutting out the rest of the populace that may have much to offer. AND, we don't have to waste our time arguing semantics.
It is what is in a man's soul that counts, after all; what he is when he is stripped to NOTHING. (Have you read Man's Search for Meaning?) Who is 'home' then when the mind wakes to Its SElf? The rest is purely adornment and programming.

This is not to say that we should not 'attack' or otherwise discuss particular beliefs. For instance, I was programmed to believe that ONLY Catholics could go to heaven but only after they went to Purgatory. Since only babies can go to 'Limbo' that meant everyone else (including my non-Catholic Father) was going to 'hell'. Okay, we agree, I'm sure: Really Dumb. But how is that any different than the Jewish Idea of Being the 'Chosen Ones'? Looks awful similar to me. Or, the 'born agains, et al' that one has to go to their Church and do it their way or you simply 'haven't got it'? Christian/Muslim sects are full of this kind of nonsense. But to discuss these factors or even object to them is not to object to the individuals who may on occasion or in fleeting personality hold these truths to the chest. I have found these same people to be very logical and reasoned on other points of view (Certainly even the Cutting Edge Ministries folks). We need to help them integrate their ideas; not push them further into their ignorance until it becomes a hard, impenetrable shell like the Irish or Palestinian factions.
My point is this: If we dare to discuss Religion and Politics on their merit, then we can conciliate and grow. If we attack each other personally, our first response is to defend ourselves. All that happens then is WAR. And if we doubt it for a moment, the world is chock full of examples!

2. The second thing I wanted to ask is this: Have you or anybody come to that point wherein you have looked at your own intellectual processes? I mean really investigated exactly how the (YOUR) Mind works? Flowcharted your thought processes, so to speak? Why do I ask? Because I think when all is said and done that is what this WHOLE thing is about: Us recognizing; taking hold of; and beginning to manipulate FOR OURSELVES the extraordinary Mechanism of Mind. (Good Lord! The Advertisers study it ad nauseum and KNOW EXACTLY HOW IT WORKS!!!) That is the ONE place where we are all exactly alike: That place beyond individual language. When we get there NOBODY any longer can use our energy by poking us with their 'fear' stick (thru ads, govt, medicine, lack). WE OWN MIND. That is the REAL FREEDOM everyone is looking for. All the rest of it is just Plato's 'shadows on the cave walls'.

Over and over again, when discussing the Bad Guys, we refer to their use of 'black magic/Satanism'. They seem to KNOW something that they have turned into Flash Radar, Mind Control, etc. The fact is, what they know is HOW OUR MINDS WORK! Indeed, Magic can be defined as the perspective of Energy from the point of View of Ignorance. In other words, they are not practicing 'magic' but they are using their knowledge of energy AGAINST us. It is our own IGNORANCE that refers to it as 'magic'.
WE CAN TURN THE TABLES ON THEM BY KNOWING FOR OURSELVES HOW OUR MINDS WORK! Therein lies the 'magic' and That is something in our control. Of course, the Bad Guys have so addicted us to their point of view from the moment of birth that it is VERY difficult for the average person to turn his attention towards his own inner processing and study it out. Instead we go looking for someone else to tell us how to do it. Have you ever noticed how the "Tellers" in the form of Religion/Medicine/Govt/et al are always telling us what NOT to do, instead of just telling us how to think so we can go learn how to use the beautiful mechanism of MIND? No. They want us to FIT into their system. Not the Natural System that is our GodSelf, not within the godfire being we can FEEL bursting at every seam of our MIND!

Of course, once we learn our own Magic, we realize that it is not 'magic' at all, but the Math of Energy being utilized by the Sword of Intent! Whether it is used for Destruction, as the Bad Guys are using it, or for Creation is up to us. But we can't make the choice until we KNOW OURSELVES like THEY know us.

SO WHAT IS MY POINT?
In the process of investigating the Polar Shift, I came across the most amazing idea: I think we are about to get a BIG BOOST in Mental acuity. Our own planet is about to help us WAKE UP! Because everything (EVERYTHING) is made up of frequencies, our mental frequencies are tuned to the earth's frequencies, which is tuned to the sun, solar system, etc. AS THE EARTH CHANGES FREQUENCIES THROUGH 'POLE SHIFT' THERE IS FINALLY A FREQUENCY CHANGE IN THE HUMAN MIND AKIN TO REBOOTING A HARD DRIVE!
For the life of me I have been unable to understand how mankind was going to get from 'here' to 'there' until I read that one little sentence and 'Eureka!' I found it! (You know the feeling.) I think the day is very near when you and I and all of us are going to KNOW the 'math' of 'magic' fully and automatically. THE MENTAL ABILITIES, FILTERED OUT OF US IN EARLIEST CHILDHOOD, ARE GOING TO BE 'RETURNED'A THOUSANDFOLD AND BECOME OUR NORMAL STOCK IN TRADE. WE WILL BE LIVING OUR FULL CAPACITY AS HUMAN BEINGS! And these idiots, the bad guys who hale from ALL genetic backgrounds and belief systems, who are right now as we speak 'eating' our fear energy for breakfast, are going to fall to earth like a deflated baloon in the Roswell desert.
...And we: You and I and All who have worked so hard to follow the maxim: "KNOW THYSELF" are going off to create a new world where what we want manifests, so there is no need to want. And we will be free to create and 'fly' and experience freely and without fear as full ambassadors of Planet Earth, the entire spectrum of the solar system.
Impossible? I think NOT. This is a DUEL Universe after all. And Mankind has spent MORE than enough time with his face in the mud! It's high time we realized the Silver Lining in this cloud of Ignorance under which we have been laboring. If 'I think; therefore I am' and 'We have nothing to fear but fear itself' are taken to the root of their absolute meaning, then it cannot be otherwise: The grapes of human consciousness have been fermenting a long, long time. Think it's time to throw a wine tasting party and enjoy the 'fruits' of our considerable labor!!

Okay, I know...I've asked for it big time. (sigh...) Let me have it. ;-)
