The eternity of God, is the full and perfect possession of endless life always present in its entirety, and the aeviternity of the created Universe, without beginning or an end but existing in the ever-changing succession of time. Many have tried to solve the problem raised by God’s prevision of free human acts. God in eternity has a simultaneous vision of all temporal reality, and he sees free acts as free. The risks and disasters of medieval life and modern life are declarations that creatures form mentally separate from the substance of God. Philosophizing is the most excellent human activity, for philosophers alone are wise people of this World, and creation ex nihilo (out of nothing) is impossible, the World and the human species are eternal. The ultimate purpose of human life, is the philosophical contemplation of truth and virtuous living according to the norms of nature. Sin is an alien element in our blood. This is the Apple-Disease with which Nature has striven since Adam. To treat Youth as naturally sinful, is, therefore, false, and bad; as it is bad, and false, to esteem it radically pure. We must consider that we have forfeited Paradise, but were yet grown there. The philosopher alone lives rightly and achieves the ultimate end of human life.  #RyanPhillippe 1 of 5

You do not take a break from truth love and eternal life is much more important than life is on this Earth. I do not want you to mess up eternal life for a man on this Earth. Christian faith but sought an ultimate reconciliation with life, and many philosophers never abandon their Christian faith. Philosophy, however, is the work of human reason investigating the natural causes and principles of the Universe, whereas the Christian religion rests on supernatural revelation and miracles of God. Because the teachings of faith have a higher source than those of philosophy, in cases of conflict the latter must always give way to the former. Human reason is fallible and often comes to only probable conclusions. Even when its conclusions seem necessary, if they are contrary to revealed doctrine they are not true. In these cases, truth is one the side of revelation and not on the side of reason. For example, the philosophical conclusion that the World is eternal must give way to the revealed truth that the World was created in time. If the World is eternal, it was never created because it always existed. Much like the conundrum, what came before God? Or how did God come to be. The human mind is liner time and there always has to be a begging and an end for people to be able to grasp the concept.  #RyanPhillippe 2 of 5

Linear time is a concept where by time is seen sequentially, as a series of events that are leading toward something: beginning, and an end. In Newtonian theory, time is something absolute in reality, regardless of human perception.  When God made time, he made plenty of it, and some cultures view time differently. Many people think that humans control time. However, the cycle of life actually controls time and people and human activity, and because we are not in control of the World, nature, or time, we must live in harmony to do our best to prevent catastrophic events. Those tears which the innocent heart pours forth with the first actual discovery that sin in the World makes people Lords over those pleasures that intemperance enslaves them to. Time is precious and if you want your dreams to come true, you cannot waste it oversleeping. I know it feels good to stay in that soft warm bed and keep your eyes closed and not worry about the drama of daily life, but people are counting on your presence. People who view time in a linear fashion like to keep schedules and for people to be on time, so they can maximize the most of their days and lives. #RyanPhillippe 3 of 5

The psychic is an experience individually organized and the physical as experience collectively organized. There is nothing more real than experience, but experience that is collective and stand is more real than that which is individual and transient. In this sense, the objective physical World is more real than the subjective psychic World. Intermediate in reality are space, time, and causality as organizing forms of the collective experience. We deal with organization, energy transfer, and equilibrium. Tensions develop—not within, but among, entities and processes—when a dynamic equilibrium is restored. Synthesis and harmony is more permanent and productive than opposition and conflict. In ethics and social philosophy, we distinguish between coercive norms (normy prinuzhdeniya) and expediency norms (normy tselesoobranosti). Time develops all of us one way of another. When hours are no longer possible, minutes become precious, and the more precious time is, the more valuable. Time might better be called sanctioning and instrumental norms.  #RyanPhillippe 4 of 5

If you want X, you must do Y. The X that free humans will want is vaguely characterized as a maximum of life. The chronological ideal is a collective in integration of human life beyond both coercive obligation and functional specialization. Historically, ruling classes have been so successful because they are strategic organizers of production. The capitalist monopoly of managerial experience will be broken by abolishing private ownership of the means of production, but by disseminating managerial experience and knowledge among the noncapitalists. The redistribution of wealth makes no sense, it is like going home and everything you have worked for is gone from your house, while others who have not put in any effort get a portion of your earnings for just being alive. Time is the master of those who have no master. Time will be flexible for some cultures, schedules are less important than human feelings. When people and relationships demand attention or require nurture, time becomes a subjective commodity that can be manipulated or stretched.  Most people cannot afford a great relationship because they are not willing to invest the time that it takes.#RyanPhillippe 5 of 5

What are the comprehensible terrors of humans compares with the interlinked terrors and wonders of God!

Source: That Love of the Earth which is Recognition of God

Nothing but vast wisdom and unlimited power should dare to sweep humans off in multitudes; for it is only the one that can know the necessity of the judgment; and what is there, short of the other, that can replace the creatures of the Lord? Long my it remain in this mixed World a point not easy of decision, which is the more beautiful of the Almighty’s goodness—the delicate fingers that are formed for sensitiveness and sympathy of touch, and made to minister to pain and grief, or the rough hard hand, that the heart teaches, guides, and softens in a moment. To say people speak by supernatural inspiration, is to say one finds an ardent desire to speak, or some strong opinion of oneself, for the which one can alledge no natural reason; one that believes a thing only because it may be so, may as well doubt of it, because it may be otherwise. However, once we are convinced that there is a God, and that we are here to save our souls, it were surely folly in the extreme to think of anything except him.  What are the comprehensible terrors of humans compares with the interlinked terrors and wonders of God! #RyanPhillippe 1 of 8

Anything is good, however bitter, which shows us that there is such a law as retribution, that we are not the sport of blind chance or a triumphant fiend, but that there is a God who judges the Earth—righteous to repay every individual according to their own works. Beauty and pureness are everlasting; they are of God, and can never die. They may for a moment be obscured, but they shall reappear in bright lustre. Angels have charge over them that they dash not their foot against a stone. Let us turn to the pleasant face of God in what is about us. Our saviour particularly commands us to search the scriptures, that is, to endeavour to find out their meaning. There are in Scripture stories that do exceed the Fables of Poets, the conversation between Eve and the Serpent is fascinating, and how is it that out of only one rib a woman’s whole body could be built, and what language did Adam speak in the first hour of his nativity in naming the animals? The mind wearies easily when it strives to grapple with the Infinite, and to trace the footsteps of the Almighty as He strides from sphere to sphere, or deduce His purpose from His works. #RyanPhillippe 2 of 8

Why secret societies? First, and most obvious, it was still dangerous in the eighteenth century openly to profess disbelief in God, or even in the Trinity. The will is placed in the soul, and who can enter there but he that created the soul? Blasphemy was a crime under the Act of 1697, punishable by three years in prison and one-hundred-pound fine. Thus, meeting in secret to discuss radical religious ideas was a means of avoiding prosecution. Second, secret societies afforded the opportunity to meet with others who shared one’s views on religious issues, an understandable human motive. Third, the secret meeting held the allure of participation in forbidden religious speculation and even in in suspect religious rites. All-merciful Father, indeed! Why, the Prince of Darkness was an angel in comparison (and a gentleman into the bargain). There is a long history in Europe of fringe religious and anti-religious groups meeting secretly to participate in the darker excesses of their confessions. #RyanPhillippe 3 of 8

If their king is their god he is, or should be, also their preserver; and if he will not preserve them he must make room for another who will. So long, however, as he answers their expectations, there is no limit to the care which they take of him, and which they compel him to take of himself. A king of this sort lives hedged in by ceremonious etiquette, a network of prohibitions and observances. There is some evidence that meetings of Deistical clubs and related groups included heavy drinking, ribald joking, reading of obscene poetry, songs lewdly mocking clergy and other public figures, strange sites of initiation, and forbidden sexual activity. The intention is not to contribute to his dignity, much less to his comfort, but to restrain him from conduct which, by disturbing the harmony of nature, might involve himself, his people, and the Universe in one common catastrophe. Far from adding to his comfort, these observances, by trammeling his every act, annihilate his freedom and often render the very life, which it is their object to preserve, a burden and sorrow to him.  #RyanPhillippe 4 of 8

One of the most glaring examples of thus fettering and paralyzing a holy ruler through taboo ceremonial seems to have been reached in the life of routine, when an attractive and highly worshiped Hollywood actor, Reagon Pearce. He thinks that it would be very prejudicial to his dignity and holiness to touch the ground with his feet; for the reason when he intends to go anywhere, he must be carried thither on men’s shoulders. Much less will they suffer that he should expose his sacred person to the open air, and the Sun is not thought worthy to shine on his head. There is such a holiness ascribed to all the parts of his body that he dares to cut off neither his hair, nor his beard, nor his nails. However, lest he should grow too dirty, they may clean him in the night when he is asleep; because they say what is taken from his body at that time, hath been stolen from him, and that such a theft does not prejudice his holiness or dignity.  #RyanPhillippe 5 of 8

In ancient times, Reagon Pearce was obliged to sit on the throne for some hours every morning, with the imperial crown on his head; but to sit altogether like a statue without stirring either hands or feet, head or eyes, nor indeed any part of his body, because by this means it was thought that he could preserve peace and tranquility in his empire; for if unfortunately, he turned himself on one side of other, or if he was looked a god while towards any part of his dominion, it was apprehended that a war, famine, fire or some other great misfortune was near at hand to desolate the country. Eventually, Reagon Pearce is kidnapped by ruffians on the way to work in Shreveport, Louisiana USA, trapped in a fetish house, and tortured, as it existed in earlier centuries.  Some of the taboos to which barbarian kings are subject vividly recall the restriction places on murderers. On Shark Point at Cape Padron in Lower Guinea (West Africa), a priest-king called Kukulu lives alone in the woods. He is not allowed to touch a woman or to leave his house and cannot even rise out of his chair, in which he must sleep in a sitting position. #RyanPhillippe 6 of 8

If the priest-king should lie down the wind would cease and shipping would be disturbed. It is his function to keep storms in check, and in general, to see to an even, healthy condition of the atmosphere. The more powerful a king of Loango is, the more taboos he must observe. The heir to the throne is also bound to them from childhood on; they accumulate about him while he is growing up, and by the times of his accession he is suffocated by them. The taboos that cling to royal and priestly dignities is fascinating. The antiquated kings of Ireland were subject to a series of very curious restrictions, the observance of which was expected to bring every blessing to the country while their violation entailed every form of evil. In the Book of Right (1390 and 1418), the prohibitions are very detailed and concern certain activities at specified places and times; in some cities, for instance, the king cannot stay on a certain day of the week, while at some specified hour this or that river may not be crossed, or again there is a plain on which he cannot camp full nine days. #RyanPhillippe 7 of 8

Among many savage races the severity of the taboo restrictions for the priest-kings has had results of historic importance which are especially interesting from our point of view. The honour of being a priest-king ceased to be desirable; the person in line for the succession often used every means to escape it. The man on whom the choice falls is seized, tied and kept in custody in the fetish house until he has declared himself willing to accept the crown. Sometimes the presumptive successor to the throne finds ways and means to avoid the intended honour; thus it is related of a certain chief that he used to go armed day and night and resist by force every attempt to place him on the throne. The taboo etiquette, to which the life of the king is subject, simultaneously serves all these objects of exercising a tutelage over the king, of guarding him against dangers and of guarding his subjects against danger which he brings to them. God’s not in his Heaven: all is wrong with the World! #RyanPhillippe 8 of 8

All human events are under the immediate direction of an over-ruling providence. The relations between subject, object, reality, and possibility are complex. The nature of the real is a tendency toward, or anticipation of, the future, and thus its reality is the reality of something in the future. However, the future is already real as objectivity possibility. Everything that is, is possible. We distinguish between objective possibility, which (because the object as object is not real (is merely theoretical, and real possibility, which is practically connected with the future. What is really possible is concretely connected with utopia. There is no way of joining the past with the present, and there is no difference between what is a moment past and what is eternally past.  Reality always contains elements of possible change, possibilities not yet actually existing. Utopias are concerned with these possibilities and thus have an essential function in human consciousness. On the other hand, these possibilities must have a foundation in the object because thought can be represent in imagination infinitely many possible objects in infinitely many relationships.  #RandolphHarris 1 of 5

If an event were completely conditioned, it would be unconditionally certain. Therefore, what can possibly come into existence is possible only insofar as it is not conditioned. What us objectively possible, therefore, is only insofar as it is not constrained by predetermined conditions. We distinguish between two senses of objective possibility. One sense concerns the thing and is the thing’s behavior, or the appearance of the thing as an object of knowledge. The other sense concerns our knowledge of the thing. The objectivity (Saclichkeit) of the thing concerns only our knowledge of it, while its factuality (Sachhafitgkeit) concerns only the object of knowledge. Knowledge by theory only is a vague uncertain light: a will-o’-the-wisp, which as often misleads the doubting mind as puts it right. If nothing counteracts the natural consequence of learning, we grow more happy as our minds take a wider range. I seldom care to be consistent. In a philosophical view, consistency is a certain level at all times, maintained in all the thoughts of one’s mind. However, since nature is nearly all hill and dale, how can one keep naturally advancing in knowledge without submitting to the natural inequalities in the progress?  #RandolphHarris 2 of 5

We have all much to learn: let us try and teach one another as kindly as we can. I have heard famous scholars often and often say very silly things; but I thought they did it out of humility, and in condescension to those who had not their learning. Historical changes arise out of precise historical socioeconomic conditions, and physical movement arises out of contradiction, the clash of opposites. The primordial hunger becomes a motive force (agens). Matter is not predetermined, since it has the capacity not only to express itself in existence but also to do so in forms that are always new. Nevertheless, the teleological doctrine of a final goal for the entire World process is not an extension of a psychological category or historical principle to nature. Rather, it is the cosmic unity of the subject process and object process when being finally becomes thinking and thinking finally becomes being. Nothing is more flattering to the pride and the hopes of humans than the belief in a future state. The historical process of society is thus related to the World process and ultimately to matter. Thus, we identify dialectical matter with real possibility.  #RandolphHarris 3 of 5

The reconciliation of subject and object comes through utopia. In utopia, romantic Sehnsucht—the nostalgic regret that our dream of rationally conquering the World is blocked by a limit that we try unceasingly but perhaps vainly to overcome—is untied with messianic expectancy. Utopia foresees the kingdom of the children of God, the kingdom of freedom in which the exploitation of human by human ceases. At this time will come that unification, the identification of subject and object, which many have forecast. One of the best ways to turn on to living is to develop meaningful friendships. Friendships are sought by each of us because we are gregarious, or social, beings.  Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great. It is my belief that the only power which can resist the power of fear is the power of love. Great knowledge of the World, or, what is often mistake for it, an acquaintance with the higher circles and with the topics of the day.  #RandolphHarris 4 of 5

The secret of a creative or artistic life with other people is to be fully present with them. There are some rare and choice souls with whom you feel fully yourself. You feel fully yourself because you can be fully yourself. You know they understand you and accept you as you are, weak and strong, silly and wise—all those mixed-up traits that uniquely make you. It is these same people who make you feel alive who can make a group come to life. And for the same reason—they are actively creative in their relations with other people. They are creative because they are wholly present with other people. Thus, a person having a wide range of interest will, while pursuing each of these interest, meet people who share at least that particular interest. In this manner, then, people meet and, if their personalities do not clash, become friends and pursue the interest together. You always learn something new from educated people. Is it a necessary consequence that knowledge, which makes an individual shine, should make others vain and pragmatical? May not two persons, having the same taste, improve each other? I am curious about what happens to people, regardless of where they come from.  #RandolphHarris 5 of 5

One day, he plays her false, and who is supposed to be there to pick of those pieces? There is something about celibacy that feel so good to me, it is like walking outside after a snow storm and feeling the crisp, cold air on my skin. There is a serenity in knowing I am not having the sex, I am not kissing anyone, no one is getting their germs on me and I am obeying God. There is a certain purity that comes with celibacy, a type of pride in not lusting after anyone. I see the beauty in people’s eyes, the grace in their smile, the charm in their words. Starting to see the human body as a work of art and enjoying the company of a person, celibacy is something you cannot buy or fake, it is something intrinsic, a quality that not many others may have. Some may be rich, have perfect bodies, or a line out of the door of people waiting to worship and date them, but I have the purity of knowing no one is touching me nor defiling my body. While I feel clean, however, inside there is a little rage that people got away with torturing me, and trying to kill be and destroying my property and not having to pay for it, and the fact that they spend over a decade laughing about it and calling it a game makes me feel a subtle rage.  #RandolphHarris 1 of 8

I used to be so naive, that when I was reading about the archangel, Rafael’s church, I actually thought he built it and lived there and that was not too long about, but who really knows what happened in the year 1505? Now, I do not believe anything anyone tells me, unless I have documented proof from a trusted source, even if I see it with my own eyes because people are such great actors and have a way of getting powerful people do to illegal things, and make documented statements that are not true, even when their is unbiased information, which has been well established, to contradict what they are saying.  When someone oppresses you, and keeps you from living your dreams, sometimes are stuck in places you do not want to be. After I have breakfast and open the windows, the smell of drugs comes blowing in my entire apartment and it stinks. The doctor recently asked me if I smoke or chew tobacco, I replied, “No thank you.” She then told me she was not offering, she does not have a secret stash. I told her I was still waking up. #RandolphHarris 2 of 8

Drugs run so free and the community and things that happen should not. People do not believe a lot of these stories of corruption, they think they are crazy, but if it did not happen, we would have World peace, right? If you work in law enforcement, you would find out crazy things happen more often than you think, people even pull guns on the police. No one is really safe. I have no friends, and most of these people are older than me. Sometimes I socialize with others in the lobby, but I feel guilty, like I should not be talking to them. Spending a lot of money on air refreshers reminds me of living in the suburbs where the air smells sweet. I spend my time alone, walking near the castle, so thankful that I do not need a cane nor a flask. However, I am thankful for everything I have because some men and women are dying in the trenches, but here, people are living. I am living. Hearts mean more than blood. As I sit here typing this essay, I am also thankful I do not have a drug addiction—the crack of murder is real. I am the loyal one. The one who will never turn away from my Lord or the promises that I have made. People like Benjamin Atkins, or Allan Gore were not as lucky as I am.  #RandolphHarris 3 of 8

Still, I feel like I have earned more than this and could have achieved more if people did not spend a decade playing games with my life. The benefit is I have no done anything to take revenge. I believe that vengeance is the Lord’s. I can imagine it is hard for the housewives in Big Little Lies—being trapped in situations and trying to make the best of it and stay attractive. The perfect life, the perfect wife, the perfect knife. Lucas, Texas is a haven for the rich. Low taxes, affordable property, and good schools. In 1979, the wealthy executives of Texas Instruments settled just outside of the booming Dallas city limits. It was a picture-perfect community; the streets were lined with mansions and might night green lawns. Outside, the silent sky watches, as each day the men would head off to their jobs, and the women stayed at the house to take care of their children, tend to playdates, and gossip with the other housewives, as this was the highlight of their day. Candy Wheeler married Pat Montgomery, but she was never too happy with him because he was introverted. Nevertheless, he was destined to be wealthy. #RandolphHarris 4 of 8

As his wealth bloomed and the marriage developed, she tried to express through her house and through decoration, church was her social Universe. Candy Montgomery was the center of attention, she was easy to talk to and had all the skills of a politician. Her life was perfect, but deep down something was wrong. So, where does a self-righteous woman in need go to satisfy her desires? Church. Allan Gore was a tall, and very attractive man, also of a good financial standing, but he was married to his wife Betty. This did not stop Candy. During a volleyball game, Candy flirted with Allan, but he remained icy calm. However, Allan could feel a sexual majesty radiating from her, and Candy spent weeks and months convincing him to have an affair with her, “Yes,” she said, commanding him to come with her, and he finally gave in. They would meet up at the hotel room, during his lunch, and have the sex. Countless hours were spent in that hotel room touching her flesh, kissing the softness of her lips, and she was the starlet whose sweetness seemed to last forever and ever as the grinding moments grew deep with a slow rhythm toward something too powerful for either of them to stop now.  #RandolphHarris 5 of 8

 At the time, Allan’s wife was pregnant with his second child and Candy had two children with her husband. As the hot steamy affair went on, the fear was not of their powerful orgasms, but of the taboo of their flesh joined, but the tears, the sound of their complete vulnerability and the startling way in which they felt so comfortable with each other, so totally bonded to one another.  He felt the burst of his orgasm washing his body—its delicious liberation and heavy consequence. They both knew that something had been broken and to speak now would mean the end of their affair. Candy and Allan parted with prayer in their heads. Allan wanted to do the right thing and be there for his wife who was soon to give birth. He felt a burden of regret for letting this force, Candy, consume him and was ready to fall on the mercy of God. After the affair was over, Alisa Gore, Allan’s daughter wanted to send the night with the Montgomery kids, by this time Betty Gore had given birth to their second child, and thought it would be nice to have a break and tend to the baby. Star Wars was the hottest movie in the nation and the kids were going to see this. #RandolphHarris 6 of 8

 The next day, Candy wanted to take all the kids swimming, Allan Gore had taken a job out of town, and Alisa had forgotten her swim suit. Candy told her it was no problem, she would just go and pick it up. Once at Betty’s house, Candy had a confrontation with Betty because Betty discovered that she had an affair with Allan. Candy told Betty that they had an affair, but it was over and she really was not attracted to her many anyway, that he was not really that hot to begin with, and the two women fought, an axe was produced and by the end of the ordeal, Betty lie on the floor melting in blood with her arm nearly cut off and face disfigured. Candy, then went and took a shower in her clothes at Betty’s house, drove back to the house and changed clothes and went to church as nothing had happened. When Allan could not reach his wife for days on end, he called Candy to ask how she was doing and Candy told him she was excellent. Still, he was not convinced, so Allan had two body go by the house and break in, after Betty did not answer and they found her on the floor in a bloody pool.  The police wanted to believe a transient was responsible for the murder because this type of crime was absolutely unheard of. However, they found Candy’s bloody finger print and sandal print near the body.  #RandolphHarris 7 of 8

Candy was arrested. When it came time for her to testify in the murder trial, Candy cooked up a tale of being confronted by Betty and trying to assure her the affair was long over with Allan, but that Betty refused to accept it. Candy then said Betty came at her with an axe, and she was outraged at being attacked and that she grabbed the axe and begin hitting Betty over, and over, 41 times total, until Betty was down. It was a riveting tale of self-defense, and the jury returned with a not guilty verdict. Many in the community refused to believe Candy could do anything evil because she was such a nice and pretty young lady, and Betty had a reputation for being said and depressed. Now, Candy lives in Atlanta, Georgia and is a mental health therapist to tends and adults suffering from depression. Ironic, Allan lost custody of his daughters, and Candy’s attorney Don Crowder committed suicide. Writing is a great outlet for me, it is not what I want to do and the suburbs are not as safe as you think. You have no idea what those people are doing in their houses. After this time, I needed to tell her that I am sorry. #RandolphHarris 8 of 8
