God be Praised for Lover’s Young Dream

If love is a weakness, it is at least the noblest weakness we are liable to. Hades, the King of the Underworld, sat on his lonely throne one day and wished that something could make his World a nicer place to live. Tartarus was cold and dark and dreary, and the Sun never shined there. No one ever came to visit Hades because the gates of Tartarus were guarded by Cerberus, a huge, three headed dog. Cerberus looked so fierce that he scared everyone away. It made hades very grumpy to be the King of such a cold and lonely World. “I need a companion who will bring joy to this dark place,” said Hades. He decided to disguise himself as a poor traveler and go up to the Earth’s surface. As Hades came out of the ground, Cupid wanted to expand his empire, so he shot Hades with an arrow, to infect him with love. Hades was determined to find someone who could help him make the Underworld a happier place to live. Upon the Earth lived Ceres, the goddess of the harvest. Ceres had a beautiful daughter named Persephone. Persephone had long, golden hair and rosy cheeks, and happiness followed her wherever she went. Ceres loved her daughter very much, and she was always full of joy when Persephone was near.

When the goddess of the harvest was happy, the whole World bloomed with life. The ground was moist and covered with flowers, and Spring reigned perpetually. The fields and orchards were always full of crops to be harvested. Persephone loved to run through the fields and help Ceres gather food for the people of Earth. Proserpine was playing with her companions, gathering lilies and violets, and filling her basket and her apron with them. However, best of all, Persephone loved to play in the apple orchards. There, she could climb the apple trees and pick large, juicy, sweet apples, which tasted better than candy. Finally, Persephone saw Hades standing nearby. In his tattered cloak, he looked like a poor and hungry traveler. Persephone was always generous, so she picked several large apples from the tree and climbed down to meet him. “Please,” said Persephone, “take these apples. They will keep you from being hungry on your journey.” Hades saw her, loved her, and thanked Persephone for the apples and went on his way. “I must bring her to the Underworld!” he thought to himself. “It could never be a gloomy place with such a kind beautiful queen as this!” and then Hades returned to the Tartarus.

The next morning, Persephone decided to pick some apples for her mothers. She ran to her favorite orchard and began picking the ripest apples she could find. They were so red that they sparkled like rubies in the Sun. Suddenly there was a great rumble, and the ground split open before her. Hades carried her off in his chariot carried, which was pulled by two black horses. On the chariot rode Hades, wearing a black armor of the Tartarus. Proserpine scared for help to her mother and her companions; and when in her fright she dropped the corner of her apron and let the flowers and apples fall, childlike she felt the loss of them as an addition to her grief. The ravisher urged on his steeds, calling them each by name and throwing loose over their heads and necks his iron-colored reins. When Hades reached the River Cyane, and it opposed his passage, he struck the riverbank with his trident, and the Earth opened and gave him passage to Tartarus. Ceres sought her daughter all the World over. Bright-haired Aurora, when she came forth in the morning, and Hesperus, when he led out the stars in the evening, found Ceres still bust in the search. However, it was all unavailing. At length weary and sad, she sat down upon a stone, and continued sitting nine days and nights, in the open air, under the sunlight and moonlight and falling showers. It was where now stand the city of Eleusis, then the home of an old man named Celeus.

Celeus was out in the field gathering acorns and black berries, and sticks for his fire. His little girl was driving home their two goats, and she passed the goddess, who appeared in the guise of an antiquated woman. The little girl said to the woman, “Mother”—and the name was so sweet to the ears of Ceres—“why do you sit here alone upon the rocks?” The little girl’s father, Helios, also stopped and, though his load was heavy and begged Ceres to come into his cottage, such as it was. She declined, and he urged her. “Go in peace,” Ceres replied, “and be happy in your daughter; I have lost mine.” As Ceres spoke, tears—or something like tears, for the gods never weep—fell down her cheeks upon her bosom. The compassionate man, Celeus, and his child wept with her. Then said he, “Come with us, and despise not our humble roof; so may your daughter be restored to you in safety.” “Lead on,” said Ceres, “I cannot resist the appeal!” So she rose from the stone and went with them. As they walked, Celeus s told her that his only son, a little boy, lay very sick, feverish and sleepless. She stooped and gathered some poppies.
As they entered the cottage, they found all in great distress, for the boy named Triptolemus, seemed past hope of recovery. Metanira, his mothers, received her kindly, and the goddess (Ceres) stooped and kissed the lips of the sick boy. Instantly paleness left his face, and healthy vigor returned to his body. The whole family were delighted—that is, the father, mother, and the little girl, for they were all; they had no servants. They spread the table and put upon it cruds and cream, apples, and honey in the comb. While they ate, Ceres mingled poppy juice in the milk of Triptolemus. When night came and all was still, she arose, and taking the sleeping boy, moulded his limbs with her hands, and uttered over him three times a solemn charm, then went and laid him in the ashes. His mother, who had been watching what her guest was doing, sprang forward with a cry and snatched Triptolemus from the fire. Then Ceres assumed her own form, and a divine splendor shone all around. While they “Mother, you have been cruel in your fondness to your son. I would have made him immortal, but you have frustrated my attempt. Nevertheless, he shall be great and useful. He shall teach men the use of the plough, and the rewards which labor can win from the cultivated soil.”

Meanwhile, in Tartarus Persephone was sad and lonely, too. She tried to make her new home a more beautiful place, but nothing helped. The ground was too cold to planet seeds, and there was no sunshine to help them grown. Finally she asked Hades to let her return to Earth. “But you are the Queen of the Underworld. Not many girls have the chance to be a queen. I am sure you will be happy here if you only stay a while longer,” Hades replied. Persephone eventually became friends with Cerberus. Although he looked ferocious, he was lonely just like her. Sometimes he walked with her through the gloomy caves of the Underworld. However, even with her new friend, Persephone missed the sunny days and lush fields where she had played on Earth. Ceres continued to search for her daughter, passing from land to land, and across seas and rivers, till at length she returned to Sicily, whence she at first set out, and stood by the banks of the River Cyane, where Hades made himself a passage with his prize to his own dominions. The river nymph witnessed, but dared not, for the fear of Hades; so she only ventured to take up the girdle which Proserpine had dropped in her flight, and waft it to the feet of the mother. Ceres, seeing this, was no longer in doubt of her loss, but she did not yet know the cause and laid the blame on the innocent land. “Ungrateful soil,” she said, “which I have endowed with fertility and clothes with herbage and nourishing grain, no more shall you enjoy my favors.”

Then the cattle died, the plough broke in the furrow, the seed failed to come up; there was too much sun, there was too much rain; the birds stole the seeds—thistles and brambles were the only growth. Seeing this, the fountain Arethusa interceded for the land. “Goddess, she said, “blame not the land; it opened unwillingly to yield a passage to your daughter. I can tell you of her fate, for I have seen her. This is not my native country; I came hither from Elis. I was a woodland nymph, and delighted in the chase. They praised me for my beauty, but I cared nothing for it, and rather boasted of my hunting exploits. One day I was returning from the woods, heated with exercise, when I came to a stream silently flowing, so clear that you might count the pebbles on the bottom. The willows shaded it, and the grassy bank sloped down to the water’s edge. I approached, I touched the water with my foot. I stepped in knee-deep, and not content with that, I laid my garments on the willows and went in. While I sported in the water, I heard an indistinct murmur coming up as out of the depths of the stream; and made haste to escape to the nearest bank. The voice said, “Why do you fly, Arethusa? I am sure; he was not more swift than I, but he was stronger, and gained upon me, as my strength failed. At least, exhausted, I cried for help to Diana. ‘Help me, goddess! Help your votary!’ The goddess heard and wrapped me suddenly in a thick cloud. The river god looked now this way and now that, and twice came close to me, but could not find me. ‘Arethusa! Arethusa!’ he cried. O, how I trembled—like a lamb that hears the wolf growling outside the fold. A cold swear came over me, my hair flowed down to the streams; were my foot stood there was a pool. In short, in less time than it takes to tell it I became a fountain. However, in this form Alpheus knew me, and attempted to mingle his stream with mine. Diana cleft the ground, and I, endeavoring to escape plunged into the cavern, and through the bowels of the Earth out here in Sicily. While I passed through the lower parts of the Earth, I saw your Proserpine. She was sad, but no longer showing alarm in her countenance. Her look was such as become a queen—the queen of Erebus; the powerful bride of the monarch of the realms of the dead.”

When Ceres heard this, she stood for a while like one stupefied then turned to her chariot towards Heaven and hastened to present herself before the throne of Jove. She told her story of her bereavement, and implored Jupiter to interfere to procure the restitution of her daughter. Jupiter consented on one condition, namely, that Proserpine should not during her stay in the lower world have taken any food; otherwise, the fates forbade her release. Accordingly, Mercury was sent accompanied by Spring, to demand Proserpine of Hades. The wily monarch consented; but alas! Proserpine has eaten the food of the dead! The maiden had taken a pomegranate which Hades offered her, and had sucked the sweet pulp from a few of the seeds. This was enough to prevent her complete release; but a compromise was made, by which she was to pass half the time with her mother, and the rest with her husband Hades. Ceres allowed herself to be pacified with this arrangement and restored the Earth to her favor. Now she remembered Celeus and his family, and her promise to his infant son Triptolemus. When the boy grew up, she taught him the use of the plough, and how to sow the seed. She took him in her chariot, drawn by winged dragons, through all the countries of the Earth, imparting to mankind valuable grains, and the knowledge of agriculture. After his return, Triptolemus built a magnificent temple to Ceres in Eleusis, and established and worship of the goddess, under the splendor and solemnity of their observance, surpassed all other religious celebrations among the Greeks.

There can be little doubt if this story of Ceres and Proserpine being an allegory. Proserpine signifies the virgin, which, when is cast into the World, lies there concealed—the is, she is carried off by the god of the underworld; it reappears—that is, Proserpine is restored to her mother, Spring leads her back to the light of day. Therefore, cherish what you have and stand guard. It may not seem like much to you know, but when you lose your virtue, it can throw your life and the lives of others out of balance. Keep waiting on that night in shinny armor and one day he will appear, but do not make him the center of your life. Stay focused so you do not get your heartbroken. One of the most important things you can do for yourself is to realize how many assets and good features you really have. Many people discount most of their good qualities as unimportant, assume everyone has them, or fail to recognize them using this checklist, make an inventory of the assets you have. Not all those that apply to you, and others you can think of.

Now do the following: (a) list several assets that you do not have, but would like to develop; (b) describe how you might be able to develop them. Next, try to develop each of these assets one at a time. Real love and truth are stronger in the end than any evil or misfortune.

The Winchester Mystery House

Over the past century, many terrifying incidents that researchers consider extremely paranormal have taken place in The Winchester Mystery House. https://winchestermysteryhouse.com/
Project Ghetto Storm II

The World’s most peaceful societies actively teach their children to be cooperative, non-violent, and helpful. One a personal level, psychologists have succeeded in teaching some people to control their anger and aggressive impulses. Anger control refers to personal strategies for reducing or curbing anger. The key to remaining calm is to define upsetting situation as problems to be solved. Therefore, to limit anger, people are taught to: Define the problem as precisely as possible. Make a list of the possible solutions. Rank the likely success of each solution. Choose a solution and try it. Assess how successful the solution was, and make adjustments if necessary. Taking these steps has helped many people to lessen tendencies toward child abuse, family violence, and other destructive outbursts.

Large scale efforts have also had some success. For instance, a program called “Youth Against Violence: Choose to De-Fuse” was developed in New York City to help hood and ghetto youths resist violence. The program is focused on creating beneficial peer pressure for choosing non-violent solutions to conflict. The use of real-life situations, speech, and body language added to the effectiveness of the program. For the more immediate future, it is clear that we need more people who are willing to engage in prosocial behavior (actions that are constructive, altruistic, or helpful to others). Late one night, tenants of a Queens, New York, apartment building watched and listened in horror as a young woman named Kitty Genovese was murdered on the sidewalk outside. From the safety of their rooms, no fewer than 38 people heard the agonized screams as her assailant stabbed her, was frightened off, and returned to stab her again.

Kitty Genovese’s murder took over 30 minutes, but none of her neighbors tried to help. None even called the police until after the attack ended. Perhaps it is understandable that no one wanted to get involved. After all, it could have been a violent lovers’ quarrel. Or helping might have meant risking personal injury. However, what prevented people from at least calling the police? Is this not an example of the alienation of city life? News reports treated this incident as evident of a breakdown in social ties caused by the impersonality of the city, or maybe because her neighbors were jealous of her? While it is true that living in the ghetto or the hood can be dehumanizing, as people act like ignorant ghetto trash, who just want to pop out an army of babies so they can get welfare, food stamps, and medi-cal. These hood rats, their goals in life are to smoke weed, smell like old chicken grease, eat barbecue, and watermelon, and drink Kool-aid out of jars, while they get their hair weaves, on the front steps, gossip, and perform oral sex for $5 in alley ways. However, this does not fully explain bystander apathy (unwillingness of bystanders to offer help during emergencies). Many of them get off on violence and chaos.

Big News: City of Sacramento Employee Files Sexual Harassment Claim Against Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson!

A City of Sacramento, California employees files a sexual harassment claim against Sacramento Democratic Mayor, Kevin Johnson. Mayor Kevin Johnson States that the City of Sacramento hired an outside investigator, who found the allegations were unsubstantiated, and that the matter is closed. However, critics believe that they Mayor paid for the investigation and that it was biased. The Mayor claims that the incident never happened, and was filed prior to his second term as Mayor. The city employee says the Mayor invited her in his office, closed the door to his library, pressed his body against hers, hugged her, grabbed her torso, and asked if she could “feel it?”

In addition, there have been other claims of the same type filed against Kevin Johnson, who is a former NBA basketball player. There was a case in the 1990s involving the alleged molestation, of a girl, Kevin Johnson met when she was 15, which includes taped statements by Johnson that are, at the least, concerning. Kevin Johnson admits to hugging the girl an says “The hug was more intimate than it should have been”. Kevin Johnson settled the case out of court for $230,000.00. Even more concerning, Kevin Johnson runs St. Hope Academy, and there are recent reports of inappropriate sexual behavior on Johnson’s part towards five St. Hope students. These claims were uncovered during a financial investigation. An investigation by a federal oversight agency into the administration of federal funds at the St. Hope Academy says Johnson misused public funds and that some of the money was recovered in a settlement. Kevin Johnson is the same Mayor that spoke up against Donald Sterling and asked him to be banned from the NBA and said that he should be forced to sell his team. Many would like to see Kevin Johnson Resign.

The Serpent is Essentially a Projection of Male Fears and Female Resentment

When man’s his own enemy, it is only because he is too much his own friend; not because he is careful about everybody but himself. The serpent is associated with death and fears of the dead, it also connotes immortality. In a similar fashion, the serpent appears as a homeopathic remedy for the fears of boundary violation, which sexuality arouses in orally fixated individuals. The snake is often utilized as a bisexual symbol, and bisexuality, like parthenogenesis, is an obvious solution to boundary fears. The child survives the attack and becomes a man, while at the very end he is reborn a babe and the entire sequence renewed. The destructive story of the wife is followed by a rapt portrait of the husband lost in ecstatic dreams of a blissful after life. Thus, at one level, the story of the attacked heart expresses the idea that through self-destruction, the little boy can rid himself of the persecutions of the mother and recreate himself along more satisfactory lines. Closely related to this fantasy of rebirth is that of propitiation, not only of the mother’s hostility, but also of her sexual demands. There is a feeling that the hero can escape death, only by appeasing these needs, but that only his self-destruction will in fact appease them. Rebirth is thus the only means to existence at all. It is clear to him that he cannot provide what she wants, that what she wants has something to do with his being male, and that is inability to provide it has something to do with his being too small.

Perhaps he even senses that in some manner, he is being put in the place of his fathers. It is not necessary for him to know that the only baby he can give his mother is himself; he can still sense that it will take all him giving up his life to please her, she is angry and hungry. After she swallows his heart, she will give birth to him again, and it will be better this time and she will be satisfied. Rituals involving the Terrible Mother with hearts and phalli to assure fertility of the Earth, and in both instances the serpent is prominently involved as the recipient of these sacrifices. Thus: All Aztec polices were subordinated to the wars that were waged for the purpose of taking prisoners to be sacrificed in the cult of the Snake Woman, who yielded fertility only when satiated by terrible blood sacrifices….The characteristic Aztec form of the sacrifice was to tear the heart out of the living body and offer it up to the Sun; this gave assurance of the fructifying rain that made the Earth fertile. Although offering the heart to the Sun seems to contradict the interpretation suggested here, the solar emphasis is merely a patriarchal overlay, superimposed upon the Earth-Mother cult. Why cutting out of the heart was maintained during the transition, however, remains a question to be investigated. Castrating or dismembering of the son, by the Terrible Mothers, suggest that the son is a snake, his scepter is a snake.

An identity between the cutting out of the heart and birth links the castration and rebirth interpretations. The dying prisoner was the generative feminine Earth principle, the woman dying in childbirth; in dying, he engendered his heart…The husking of the corn, the heart, is castration, mutilation, and sacrifice of the essential male part; but at the same time, it is birth and a life-giving deed. Blood sacrifice and dismemberment belong to the fertility ritual of the Great Mother. Both fecundate the womb of the pieces of the victim, weather man or animal, are solemnly spread over the fields. The Greek Thesmophoria, in which little pigs, symbolizing the children of the Earth sow, and phallic symbols are thrown into a ravine supposed to be swarming with snakes, also belongs to this context. No wonder that one idle fellow should love another. One may interpret this ritual of propitiating the serpent as essentially a projection of male fears and female resentment. In the ritual of the Thesmophoria, for example, the women who perform it are projecting onto the Earth-Mother their own modal conflict, saying, in effect, she will conceive and bring forth only when her hatred and fierce hunger have been sated with the blood and organs of the offending male. A treacherous friend is the most dangerous enemy.

Basic Ingredients for a Healthy Parent and Child Relationship

It is hard work to control the workings of inclination, and turn the bent of nature: but it may be done. Self-esteem refers to regarding oneself as a worthwhile person, someone who is valued, loved, accepted and appreciated. High regard for one’s own body, mind, and life is essential for emotional health. Conversely, individuals with low self-esteem place a low value on themselves as people. Low self-esteem is often times related to physical abuse or punishment or withholding of love. High self-esteem, in contrast, is related to management techniques, of children, that emphasize clear and consistent discipline, coupled with high parental interest and concern for the child. Research indicates that it is best for parents to minimize physical punishment and to avoid unnecessary withdrawal of love. Children who feel that their parents support them emotionally, tend to have high self-value, and do better in school. Consistency: Discipline should give children the freedom to express their deepest feelings through speech and actions. However, this does not mean the child has the freedom to do entirely as one pleases. It means that the child can move freely, within well-defined guidelines, for acceptable behavior. Of course, individual parents may choose limits that are stricter or less strict. However, consistency in parenting is the key to raising a child; as a parent, maintaining stable rules of conduct is very important to child development.

Inconsistency makes the child’s World seem unpredictable and produces anxiety and fear. Here are some common mistakes you may want to avoid. Do not confuse your children by saying one thing and doing something else. You tell the child, “Bart, if you do not eat your Brussels sprouts, you cannot have any dessert.” Then you feel guilty and offer him some dessert. This will create conflict in the mind of a child, and they will think they can manipulate you, or that you are not too smart. Avoid making statements you do not mean. For example, you child is extremely rambunctious, he ate too much sugar and is talking loudly and getting on your nerves. Your response by saying, “If you do not quiet down, I am going to stop the car and beat the living daylights out of you!” Chances are this is an empty threat, and you are extremely annoyed. So, you may want to tell the child to please quiet down, or there will be consequences for his behavior. Furthermore, consider not overstating consequences. You notice your flower bed has been rearranged, and it upsets you. You find your son and say, “Look what you did to the flower bed. You cannot ever ride your bike again.” First of all, are you sure he tampered the flower bed? Ask him, and make sure he is comfortable telling you the truth. If he did, the ask him to please stay out of your flowers, you work hard to keep your garden looking nice.

Never change no to yes. If Bart wants a toy and you cannot afford it or do not want to buy it, but he keeps nagging you, then telling him, “Right now is not a good time, son. Do not dispute my authority.” Also, sometimes when you ask a child to do something, they will not. Sometimes it is because they are being defiant, forget, or do not know what to do. Therefore, always make you check to see something you have asked your child to do has been completed. This was, he does not think he can get away with being slick and insidious, or forgetful. In addition, do not negate rules that your spouse has set. Parents need to agree on child discipline, and not undermine each other’s efforts. If you go against what your husband said, this may create confusion and could lead to you and your child getting in trouble. Supposed your husband told you son to stay home because your neighbors are drug dealers and smoke weed with their children. You had no idea that your husband told Bart to stay inside, and told Bart he could go play with them because you assumed your husband was being racist. Bart may or may not have been manipulating you, but always make sure you check with your spouse about rules that they have laid out, even if they seem unfair to you. Your son may have forgot that he could not hang out with his new friends because you are always asking him to forgive people, so he may push things in the back of his head, so he is not walking around angry.

Unresolved issues are not always easy to deal with. In other situations, when your child is actually acting up, never respond differently to the same misbehavior. You told Bart he could only go to the park and play. However, you noticed that Bart is not at the park, but instead he is walking around somewhere alone, admiring the buildings and landscape. Instead of punishing him, you may want to ask why he did this? Could be that Bart is bored or having issues in the park you allowed him to play in? Get to the core of the problem, do not pretend everything is perfect. Maybe he is lonely, or needs something new to do? So, punishment is not always the solution. Sometimes honest communication is the best response. Random discipline makes children feel angry and confused because they cannot control the consequences of their own behavior. Inconsistency also gives children the message: “Do not believe what I say because I usually do not mean it.” You never want to come off to a good child as if you do not care, this could cause them to turn into a rogue (a bad person who does as they please). Guidelines for Parents: Effective parents use each of the three major types of discipline, at one time or another, and each has its place. Physical punishment and withdrawal of love should be used with caution. Parents should separate disapproval of the act from disapproval of the child. Instead of saying, “I am going to punish you because you are bad,” instead trying rephrasing that as, “I am upset about what you did.” Then ask your child why they did this behavior you find unacceptable so they can know that they are able to be honest with you.

State specifically what misbehavior you are punishing. Explain why you have set limits on this kind of conduct. Punishment should never be harsh or injurious (distressing) to a child. You do not want to tell your child you will kick them out of the house and send them to a death camp, every day of their life, when you cannot figure out what they are doing. This could stress a child out and some children have been known to respond to threats by running away or committing suicide. Children have unusual ways of dealing with stress and normal life conflicts, so you never want to make them feel like their life is constantly in danger. Try not to physically punish a child while you are angry. Some people get angry and choke their children or push them to the floor and say, “Oh, it was not that hard.” This will confuse a child and make them feel depressed and unloved. You could also lose your child by abusing them. Also, remember, that giving the child the message, “I do not love you right now” can be more painful and damaging than any spanking. Yet, you never want to take physical vengeance out on a good kid because you are upset at the moment. However, punishment is most effect when it is administered immediately. This statement is especially true for younger children. Tell them what they did wrong, how to make it better, and what the consequences are for their inappropriate actions.

Nonetheless, spanking and other forms of physical punishment are not particularly effective for children under age 2. The child will only be confused and frightened because they cannot really speak and live based on emotions. Unlike bad adults, children sometimes are simply learning right from wrong, they are not evil and corrupt. So make sure you talk to them and teach them the right ways to behave. In addition, spanking also becomes less effective, after age 5, because it tends to humiliate the child and breeds resentment, frustration, and anger. It may not be a good idea to physically spank a young child, at all. However, once a child knows right from wrong, you may want to spank them, but realize that it could be considered child abuse, depending on your county or state. Many psychologists believe that children should never be physically punished. If you do choose to use physical punishment, reserve the physical punishment for situations that pose an immediate danger to the younger child; for example, when a child runs into the street, or if they assault someone. *Remember, too, that it is usually more effective to reinforce children when they are being good than it is to punish them for misbehavior. If you kid is doing their homework, cleaning the house, and eating their dinner, and acting good, be sure to give them a treat. Sometimes a couple of extra dollars or ice cream or new shoes is nice. Effective Parenting: There are four basic ingredients for a healthy parent and child relationship. One has to show mutual respect for their child. Try to avoid hitting, nagging, debating, and talking down to children. You are the boss, once you speak, that is the end of story. You do not need to keep telling a child the same thing over and over. They should know it is their responsibility to obey.

Also avoid doing things for your son or daughter that these children can do for themselves. Bart knows how to write his own book reports, he may struggle, but he can ask for help. However, he needs to do them himself so his mind can grown and become more knowledgeable. If you constantly strip you child of opportunities to learn and take responsibility, this will prevent them from becoming independent and from developing high self-esteem. One also has to share enjoyment with their child. Some time each day, effective parents spend time with their children and the parents and the child bond, trust each other and know that they are loved. Love, this goes almost without saying, but many parents assume their children know they are loved, and this is not always the case. It is important to communicate your caring by words and by actions, such as by hugging, and talking to them. Encouragement is also important. Children who receive frequent encouragement come to believe in themselves. In authoritarian households, the child’s sense of worth comes from getting rewards and avoiding punishment from powerful parents. Effective parents do not just praise their children for winning, for success, or for good behavior; they encourage their children by recognizing progress and attempts to improve. In reality, encouragement means: Valuing and accepting children, pointing out beneficial aspects of a child’s behavior. Showing faith in children; letting them try things on their own. Also, giving recognition for effort and improvement, and showing appreciation for the child’s contributions to the family.
Why are they so Mean and Corrupt?

For a while, I have been trying to figure out why some people are so mean and corrupt and why they do not see anything wrong with their deviant behavior. It took me years to open my mind and do the proper research to figure out what is going on. Not everyone believes in God and some of these non-believers worship another god, they worship Satan. The rules of Satan are not all bad, many of the make sense. However, Satan teaches people it is okay to be jealous, vengeful, and liars. After dealing with an insane reporter and his klan for so many years, what is wrong with them became clear.

THE NINE SATANIC STATEMENTS
1. Satan represents indulgence, instead of abstinence!
2. Satan represents vital existence, instead of spiritual pipe dreams!
3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom, instead of hypocritical self-deceit!

development”, has become the most vicious animal of all!

emotional gratification!

For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies.
The Aeon of Lucifer began 5 May 2000. The term demon is in Greek daemon, which means an influencing spirit of intelligence. Kenny is scared of life and of dying, so he imagines demons are after him. He believes they have the power to destroy him. Yes, he worships the devil. The stuff he says is in the Devil’s Bible. “I AM of my being is pure consciousness, I realize that I am God.” But what he does not tell you is what that means…. Kenny says society is evil…. “I am the universe manifest. And Lucifer, the embodiment of wisdom and enlightenment is within me. It is what the I AM of my being is.” He is saying, “I am Lucifer. I am Satan.”
Christian God is static and unchanging. The Devil is bipolar, always changing. God, in Heaven, says Earth and society is good. The Devil is evil, so he claims society as his own, he wants others to hurt. Have you noticed that Evil people are doing very well and getting away with evil? BECOMING! When Lucifer has risen, when man has become God, then it shall be known that the Aeon of Lucifer has begun.
With the Age of Enlightenment and the eventual separation of church and state, a new emotional Christianity took the place of the authoritarian Christianity. This is the Christianity we have been left with today, a religion of blind faith and superstition – intolerant of all others faiths.
Read from a “satanic” perspective, the Bible reveals itself as a history of Hebrew magicians and sorcerers. In emotional fervor many Christians would take up serpents, speak in tongues, and witness miracles performed by faith healers. Many have rejected Christianity today because of what they see as the utter ridiculousness of its ceremonies and the complete ignorance of its followers.
The Old Testament is shown to be practitioners of the Black Arts and Jesus Christ, in his stance against hypocrisy and self-righteousness, is revealed as a great Satanic Priest and Black Magician. And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch out mine hand upon Egypt and bring out the children of Israel from among them. And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent. Then the Pharaoh also called the wise men and their sorcerers.
To the inquiring mind it is clear why the Magi of Persia (the Wise Men), were the first to acknowledge the birth of Christ, for through their Magical Art and the practice of Astrology, they recognized him as a naturally born magician. That is why they follow and stalk him.
Many believe that God created the universe. However, it is actually the universe which is creating God. When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison, and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the Earth (May the fourth be with you). Satan and his people are like the sand on the seashore. They march across the breadth of the Earth and Surround the camp of God’s people, the city he loves.
Satan is a metaphor for man. The rise of Lucifer is the rise of man to his eventual destiny. When man becomes God, that means that Lucifer has risen, the dragon has awaken, the gates have been flung wide and the heavens have been conquered. By your magic spell all the nations were led astray. In her was found blood of prophets and of the saints, and of all who have been killed on the Earth.
However, Satan knows his days are short and that he and his people will be destroyed. What he hates in others is what he hates most in himself. What he fears in others is what he fears most in himself. What he loves in others is what he most wants to possess himself. How he treats his fellow man is a reflection of his true feelings towards his individual consciousness. Those who worship “God” are fools, for they deny the reality of the One which exists within them. Those who fear “God” are frightened of shadows for there is nothing beyond consciousness.
Satan’s son, the son of man, was given to the serpent from birth. The Demonic Bible possess rituals dealing with the invocation of spirits of the dead and resurrection of corpses as well as magical seals, charms, and spells have been omitted from this book in order to avoid such things being used foolishly by those who have no interest in magic beyond the acquisition of wealth and the satisfaction of vain ambitions. If you desire it the spirits will reveal to you all manner of sorcerers whereby you may attain that which you desire. The real satanist is not quite so easily recognized as such.

As the rain and the snow come down from Heaven, and do not return to it without watering the Earth and making it bloom and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sewer and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, however, will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. Classic study of suicide showed that what seems to be an individualistic and highly personal act is in fact influenced by a person’s place in the social structure and can be viewed as both socially dysfunctional and functional. Insisting that suicide could be understood only through a study of overall rates, not individual suicide, there are four defined categories of suicide: egoistic, altruistic, anomic, and fatalistic. Egoistic suicide occurs in large, complex, and loosely integrated urban societies in which individuals feel they are not meaningfully integrated into a social group or into society as a whole. Despite some contradictory findings regarding the role of religion, numerous other studies of suicide have confirmed the influence of social integration, especially marriage, on differing suicide rates. Conversely, altruistic suicide, which is more characteristic of smaller rural societies or closely bonded small groups, occurs as a result of extreme social integration, when suicide may be viewed as necessary and even functional for the survival of the overall group.

Every major religion has its martyrs (sacrifices). Affection may now and then withstand very severe storms of rigor, but not a long polar frost of downright indifference. In anomic suicide, people take their lives as a result of a lack of social regulation and control. People want norms to govern and regulate their behavior so that they know what is expected of them and others. Anomie refers to a state of social strain, normative confusion, or rapid change in norms, when people’s behavior is no longer restrained by conventional norms. In times of natural disasters, war, stock market crashes, uncontrolled bullying, and other major social upheavals, suicide rates tend to increase. Fatalistic suicide happens because some people need a certain amount of autonomy and freedom from social control. If their right to privacy is violated, they feel exposed and kill themselves. Prisoner suicides, suicidal love pacts, or suicide missions, and similar circumstances where people believe they have neither freedom nor choice and that their futures are doomed are examples of fatalistic suicide.

The Superstars

Once there was a king, who had happiness and great fortune. Of all of his treasures, he was proudest of his four children, the most perfect children in the land. His three fine strong sons would do anything for their fathers, and the king’s greatest joy, his daughter Aaliyah, was clearly the dearest, sweetest, and most beautiful child in all the World. Aaliyah spent much of her time in her garden. Next to her brothers and her brothers and her father, her lovely roses were Aaliyah’s greatest treasures. She would spend hour after hour caring for them. Then one day the king hurried to find Aaliyah. He was worried. “I have terrible news, you are in danger,” he told her. The king had many treasures, it is true, but for this he also had many wicked and powerful enemies. These critics were evil sorcerers and magicians who believed no one should have so much happiness as the king did. We are taken over by safety and security needs—needs to develop bodily skills and controls, to learn about dangers, to lean to move about more freely in the environment, and to develop a sense of physical security in ourselves and with others. Aaliyah is nineteen. She is pretty together, knows fairly well who she is, what her skills are, how she relates to people. She is a freshman in a business school, with a record of solid B’s. Her test indicate that she has leadership potential, and she has long dreamed of running her own business. Aaliyah works about twenty hour a week as a salesperson, assistant bookkeeper, and occasional buyer for Mlle. Michele’s Boutique. After working there for a few weeks, the owner asks if she would like to quit school and become a manager, full time. That would mean quitting school, with only a few weeks to go before the end of the term. If Aaliyah quits, she can earn more money, put her talents to work, in a more responsible position, and discovers if this is the sort of work she really wants to do from now on. “I fear for your safety, you must go away from me now,” the king told his daughter. “However, Father,” Aaliyah sobbed, “I want to stay with you and my brothers.” The King said, “Your brothers have been taken away from us. I know not where? I cannot stand to lose you, too,” he sadly told Aaliyah.

Living in Human Society

The idea of predicting behavior is not only frightening, but it is ludicrous. You might be afraid that if you can predict your own behavior, you will have no choice as to how you will act. There is no such thing as chance or accident; the words merely signify our ignorance of some real and immediate causes. A fully human person appreciates their own uniqueness and individuality. Many parents teach their children to try and cop some imaginary perfect human being, but each person is unique, and a healthy person appreciates his or her own special qualities. A fully human person is aware of the common bond they have with all other people. One knows that one is like other people in having physical and emotional needs, which must be addressed and satisfied. People look for the common thread in all human experiences. Individuals recognize that differences, such as nationality, or religion are artificially imposed and less important than the similarities among humankind. A fully human person knows they are fully responsible for their own existence.

They evaluate the teachings of the society of which they are a member, making a decision to reject what one considers undesirable or dehumanizing. Real humans base their personal philosophy and life on their decisions and take full responsibility for their actions. A fully human person does not demand perfection, but tries to fulfill one’s own potential. Then they brought him a demon possessed man, who was blind and mute, and Christ healed him, so that he could both talk and see. All the people were astonished, and said, “Could this be the Son of David?” The good person brings out things out of good stored up in them, and the corrupt individual brings out the fraudulent things stored in them. However, I tell you that humans will have to give account, on the Day of Judgment for every careless word they have spoken. For by your words and actions, if they are good, you will be acquitted, and by your words and actions you will be condemned.

The Future of the Cities: Choices for the Future

The complexity of American society offers many choices for the future of relations between central cities and suburbs and patterns of Caucasian and Negro settlement in metropolitan areas. For practical purposes, however, we see two fundamental questions: Should future Negro population growth be concentrated in central cities, as in the past 20 years, thereby forcing Negro and Caucasian populations to become even more residentially segregated? Should society provide greatly increased special assistance to Negroes and other relatively disadvantaged population groups? For purposes of analysis, the Commission has defined three basic choices for the future embodying specific answers to these questions:

The Present Polices Choice
Under this course, the Nation would maintain approximately the share of resources now being allocated to programs of assistance for the poor, unemployed, and disadvantaged. These programs are likely to grow, given continuing economic growth and rising Federal revenues, but they will not grow fast enough to stop, let alone reverse, the already deteriorating quality of life in central-city ghettos. This choice carries the highest ultimate price, as we will point out.

The Enrichment Choice
Under this course, the Nation would seek to offset the effects of continued Negro segregation and deprivation in large city ghettos. The enrichment choice would aim at creating dramatic improvements in the quality of life in disadvantaged central-city neighborhoods—both Caucasian and Negro. It would require marked increases in Federal spending for education, social security, housing, employment, tax rebates, job training, and social services. Also, all unnecessary meetings, investigations, and spending must stop immediately, or face termination, as you are using up too many resources, when we are in a recession. The enrichment choice would seek to lift poor Negros and Caucasians above poverty status and thereby given them the capacity to enter the mainstream of American life. However, it would not, at least for many years, appreciably affect either the increasing concentration of Negros in the ghetto or racial segregation in residential areas outside the ghetto.

The Integration Choice
This choice would be aimed at reversing the movement of the country toward two societies, separate and unequal. The integration choice—like the enrichment choice—would call for large-scale improvement in the quality of ghetto life. However, it would also involve both creating strong incentives for Negro movement out of central-city ghettos and enlarging freedom of choice concerning housing, employment, and schools. The result would fall considerably short of full integration. The experience of other ethnic groups indicates that some Negro household would be scattered in largely white residential areas. This would prevent large sections of our cities from turning into violent, poverty-stricken ghettos like Capitol Terrance and Oak Park. Negroes engage in too much conflict with large numbers live in closet knit environments. Others—probably a larger number—would voluntarily cluster together in largely Negro Neighborhoods. The integration choice would thus produce both integration and segregation. However, the segregation would be voluntary.

Articulating these three choices plainly oversimplifies the possibilities open to the country. We believe, however, that they encompass the basic issues—issues which the American public must face if it is serious in its concern not only about civil disorder, but the future of our democratic society.

Conclusion
The future of our cities is neither something which will just happen nor something which will be imposed upon us by an inevitable destiny. That future will be shaped to an important degree by choices we make now. We have attempted to set forth the major choices because we believe it is vital for Americans to understand the consequences of our present drift.

Three critical conclusions emerge from this analysis:
- The nation is rapidly moving toward two increasingly separate Americas. Within two decades, this division could be so deep that it would be almost impossible to unite: a white society principally located in suburbs, in smaller central cities, and in the peripheral parts of large central cities; and a Negro society largely concentrated within large central cities. The Negro society will be permanently relegated to its current status, possibly even if we expend great amounts of money and effort in trying to gild the ghetto.
- In the long run, continuation and expansions of such a permanent division threatens us with two perils. The first is the danger of sustained violence in our cities. The timing, scale, nature, and repercussions of such violence cannot be foreseen. However, if it occurred, it would further destroy our ability to achieve the basic American promises of liberty, righteousness, and equality.

The second is the danger of a conclusive repudiation of the traditional American ideals of individual dignity, freedom, and equality of opportunity. We will not be able to espouse these ideals meaningfully to the rest of the World, to ourselves, to our children. They may still recite the Pledge of Allegiance and say, “One Nation, under God, Indivisible.” However, they will be learning cynicism, not patriotism.

- We cannot escape responsibility for choosing the future of our metropolitan areas and the human relations which develop within them. It is a responsibility so critical that even an unconscious choice to continue present policies has the gravest implications.

That we have delayed in choosing or, by delaying, may be making the wrong choice, does not sentence us either to separatism or despair. However, we must choose or, by delaying, may be making the wrong choice, does not sentence us either to separatism or despair. However, we must choose we will choose. Indeed, we are now choosing….

Recommendations for National Action
THE DISORDERS are not simply a problem of the racial ghetto or the city. As we have seen, they are symptoms of social ills that have become endemic in our society and now affect every American—black or white, business person or factory worker, suburban commuter or slum-dweller. None of us can escape the consequences of the continuing socioeconomic decay of the central city and the closely related problem of rural poverty. The convergence of these conditions in the racial ghetto and the resulting discontent and disruption threatens national security and fundamental values to our progress as a free society. The essential fact is that neither existing conditions nor the garrison state offers acceptable alternatives for the future of this country. Only a greatly enlarged commitment to national action—compassionate, massive, and sustained, backed by the will and resources of the most powerful and the richest nation on this Earth—can shape a future that is compatible with the historic ideals of American society….more to come.
