Recently I was involved in a heated debate with a lady who was commenting in a way I didn’t like on my Facebook page. She said she was proud to use abortion as birth control, she would continue to do so regardless of what anyone else thought and that I should shut my mouth because I was a man. I’m actually pro choice on the issue, although my debates with people like this lady are always construed as me being a pro life advocate. I don’t like to waste life but I also wouldn’t change the existing system as it now stands. I know the extreme terror a young person can be caught in if an unwanted pregnancy occurs and it’s important to have choice to deal with that hardship…….but it’s also good to tell children about this terror (which we’re not doing) so they can make better decisions before sex is engaged in. Regardless. that’s my stance on the issue and always has been.
I’m the way I am because no one would protect me when I was a little boy. I got abused all the time and I was infuriated that there were people around me (in most situations) who could protect me but they did nothing. I couldn’t defend myself so I promised that when I was able, I would defend anyone who had no voice or were too weak to fight. The teachers where I went to school would abuse the kids, we would get beat up on the way home and sometimes the confines of the local neighborhood weren’t any better. I get upset writing about it to this very day. I don’t like power abusing innocence. It boils my blood. This obviously has developed my personality into one where I try to come to defend things or people who can’t defend themselves and lend a hand. I fired back at this woman on my page……and my comments were clipped (without her’s attached). In the end, that clip and a couple others of mine circled my home town area and there was a small fire where Christoff was burned at the stake. That uproar was calmed down a bit in some camps but there are still some people who don’t understand anything to do with this situation and that’s perfectly fine. I do admire the small tribe who came to the defense of their tribe members in need. That I respect of the side that roasted me.
As I was working out at my gym today, I pictured Jesus on the cross (no, I’m not religious) and the first thing that came to my mind was “most of the crowd knew Jesus and liked him……..yet they did nothing when he was walked up the hill to his death.” Same thing in Brave Heart and same thing with Joan of Arc etc etc. And that folks is because we seem to be painfully unaware of when we need to step in as good and moral people. Although the uproar against my name was small in the grand scheme of things and even though thousands of people who admire me watched it all happen………..the vast majority said nothing. It appears we need a greater tribal identity as a group or maybe even the tribe was punishing me because they thought I crossed the line…….but in the end, I was tribe-less. (save a few very brave souls who were outnumbered 10 to 1….thank you to those warriors) And that’s also OK. I’m not upset with anyone who sat there and watched my effigy burn down into ashes while the angry mob chanted around the embers. There’s a good ending to this story.
The moral to take away is that many people wonder to this day why the world is in turmoil. We all wonder why it’s crumbling and falling apart at the edges. Our society is collapsing because we go through these phases in human history and the phase we’re in right in is that we permit smaller very aggressive tribes to back down tribes of much bigger numbers. This leaves the spirit of the bigger tribe empty and without the beating heart it needs to survive. Maybe I was expecting too much of my tribe but then again I serve my tribe daily in many ways.
I just witnessed the exact same thing with author and medical freed advocate JB Handly who wrote a great book on Autism but because he didn’t push a zero vaccines agenda, a small angry group (inside his own tribe) attacked him and the other 98% just sat there and watched. Where was his tribe for back up? He had over 100,000 people on his Facebook page and was a leader for the medical freedom tribe but when the angry mob came, the bigger numbers just sort of hid in the corner. He shut his page down and no one has seen him since. How does that help anyone? Bullied out of a leadership position because without the 98% pushing back, the 2% takes over. We need both the 2% and the 98% in this world of course……….but we need each tribe to back their tribe members, including within our own tribe. I took all of this as an invisible vote for myself to step down and become a member of the tribe in a different capacity.
So today going forward, there will be no more deep commentary on the page from myself. I will still answer questions. I will post on the same issues, with no deep leading commentary, views or analysis………in regards to hard hitting health information. I know you will figure everything out from there. I have confidence in my tribe. No shocking information will get commentary. Shock jock truths….yes. Commentary of the shock jocks truth……no. Oddly enough I will post even more insider secrets now I believe because posting truth, without any commentary, is extremely boring. I’ll write no more opinion pieces, as there are already 1500 articles like that on this site. Educational pieces as articles will still be composed. If I find new material I will simply add it to an existing article to update and archive.
So if you see a change on the page, this is why. I believe this approach can actually bring many tribes together. I think this is a natural progression of a member in the tribe from warrior to elder………and I take the recent conflict in my home territory as a sign to make the transition. It’s said that at the 7th chakra level (49 years of age) the body makes a natural switch from warrior to teacher and peace keeper. I’m ready and it’s time. In the end, I think an overall betterment has occurred. Respect to the other tribe and all other tribes out there. I always try to find a valuable lesson, even among the painful situations. It’s only up from here.
It’s shame this approach wasn’t taken while trying to save. This feels from the heart, the heart of someone the average person struggling to change can relate to, the heart of someone who went through a re-awakening and rose above it. Instead we got a defensive and judgemental teacher who battled compliance while simultaneously demanding it from his followers and attacking, sometimes on a personal level, those who dared go against his views. I hope this change brings you more followers. It’s easy to have the rest of the so called “awake” followers being your yes men and attacking anyone who questions, but it’s hard to show acceptance and forgiveness to someone who hasn’t lived though what you have question why you’d know more about struggle and change than them. Your message has some positive wanting to help undertones, I hope this change makes them shine. Best of luck.
