Equal Ideas

Some seem to be saying that all ideas are equal; that all opinions are equal—veiled in the liberty offered by a set of ideas and principles that allow instead of force; that there is good forcing and bad forcing.  And it is interesting in societies that allow you equality and liberty, the arts and sciences prosper—including the arts of death which take root in soil and sun and water and air that is liberty—then overtake it like vines; leeching all the life and strangling the heart and mind and poisoning the blood of life and love and goodness—then simply die after killing the vital; after having nothing to feed off of anymore; that seemed to be alive only to feed off of vitality.

I would say it’s not that equal ideas are fighting each other.  I would say manifestations of life—perhaps versus manifestations of death—are born and nurtured. These conceptions manifest in the real world—Not in some vacuum. 

Thus, economics, politics, art, culture—the material reality, the spiritual reality and the personal reality: your material world (your labors, your house, your society or nation, all your comforts and connections); your internal life if you address it (religion or Buddhism or shamanism); your personal life (sex, romance, children, friends coworkers and bosses, or trade partners). 

I posit that these things manifest from the art and science of life or the art and science of death. And that there are fairly consistent lines that have been intentionally confounded—for profiteers in the art of death; that the practitioners of the art and science of death include the art of sabotaging the art and science of life—like miscrossapplying any number of ideas or concepts or words or principles and fooling some and overtaking all. 

In the art of life, you can create and study anything you want. All ideas and people are, shall we say, equal. In the art of death, you force others to ascribe to or obey your ideas.  And some people and ideas are more equal than others.

I posit that it is not coincidental that in societies of liberty, everyone prospers more—as does culture and art and science.  And in societies of coercion--equally with good or bad intentions—everyone becomes destitute.  And the confounding is like sucking vines in your brain and society that maybe have grown in to your heads and sight and understanding so that you cannot see the cancer.
