#501 - #71 - Your teeth will fall out

When you don’t brush your teeth, they “will” fall out!
You can believe this, can’t you?

If so....
Can really believe in “Can I control the world I live in, and How can I stop this world from falling apart?””


If you believe in “one world”, who’s to run it?..... Do you think everyone in the world will agree?
After all there is someone to vote for!

If you believe everyone should share our standard of living… Do we Americans have enough treasure?

If you believe there should be unlimited birth control, where will the “energy” come from?
Where will the food come from?
Where will the jobs come from?
Where will the “governance” come from?......Who will govern?

Is our idea of “one world” even conceivable?.... Is the world, as it exists, even “sustainable”?
What then? …… “Do our teeth just fall out?”

When you hear a hysterical cry at an idea or at a celebrity or at a certain word, what do you think? Do you just “go along” or do you stop and think “What’s the hysteria about?”… Who are the hysterical people? …. What are they hysterical about?

There is no use trying to have a decent conversation with a “believer”! To “believe” is to have a mental, unchangeable, idea whether it’s a political or a religious system, that is untested or that is concrete in someone’s mind. The whole purpose of a “decent conversation or debate” is to challenge a particular idea or system. If it’s already “concrete” in someone’s mind, what chance is there of having a “decent” conversation? It’s already a “waste of time”!

Suppose you are not troubled by death, what use is there to converse about the “after-life? People have been trying for ages to define these “imponderables”. (This includes the Religious ideas i.e. Jesus Christ is the measure of this world (tell it to the Moslems or the Buddhists!) There is no such language to address these ideas. That’s why they’re called “imponderables”. There are many people who are informed and who are simply uninterested in the “imponderables”.

Will you continue to treat your world as an “imponderable”?
Will you define it and act on it……. “before your teeth fall out!”
