OUR PREOCCUPATIONS
AND WHAT THEY REVEAL ABOUT US
I look at this subject and wonder, is this just about Rip, or dare I presume I may speak for others? One way to find out. Publish it.
What subjects seem to currently occupy the minds of this society?
- First and obviously, politics as influenced by Trump and his Republican cult. They attack democracy, the constitution and the rule of law, yet millions of American citizens blindly follow this belief system.
The collapse of democracy and the onset of dictatorship, along with violent civil war, are the unspeakable possibilities that now realistically confront us. So, many of us are preoccupied with these shocking thoughts.
2. Next, the governmental recognition of a reality many of us have known for many years, UFO/UAP is a real phenomenon, resulting from a non-human, technologically highly competent intelligence. The reality of the mystery is finally in front of all of us, and many of us grapple to intellectually grasp the profound meaning of this interaction between non-human and human minds.
3) As the Christian church seems to be diminishing in membership, those who consider themselves non-religious but spiritually committed are increasing in numbers. Together with this apparent upsurge in spiritual interest we find a corresponding increase in interest in and acceptance of the reality of the paranormal, in all its fascinating manifestations.
