Building A Lemming Culture

“As the level of incompetency increases, so does the dependence on the rules. Non thinkers are totally dependent on procedures and the oligarchy depend on it and work to create a world culture comprised of that type of people (i.e. depersonalized non-thinking robots who can be relied on to act according to procedure). Dull, non threatening and replaceable, like any tool when it stops working, it is discarded and replaced. Health care was one of the last steps to this end in that it opens the door for the legalized elimination not only of the non-productive but the non-compliant who will be defined as psychologically unfit for society. State controlled health care is the bookends of the system. The state brings you into the world, catechizes and trains you in the state school, assigns your place in the machine through school to work programs in the propaganda centers, monitors your value as a useful part and in the end discards you when your useful years have passed. It is conceivable, if God delays, that society will become like “Logan’s Run” where men are given a set number of years doing away with any evaluative process and simplifying the system.”

Mark Chambers

That this is seen as reality is found in the fact that people are no longer educated so much as they are trained. Even the professional positions (Lawyers, Doctors, Ministers, Academics) are staffed with people who have no idea how to think critically but are people who merely spin the dials, calibrate the machinery, and count the beans. We have become cogs in the machine of the State and we all understand ourselves only as against the backdrop of a society that is naught but an emanation of the State.

Think about our dependence upon rules and following procedure. A little boy at school points his finger at someone and yells “Bang” and the school district must expel him because that violates documented procedure. A worker in a business meeting uses the word “niggardly” in his report and he is fired because policy does not allow that kind of language in the workplace. We pass a Health Care bill that is thousands of pages long in order to describe procedures and process so that all the good little apparatchiks can follow the rules.

And in becoming so process and procedure oriented we assure that we can, at any time, be arrested for not following some rule we had no idea existed.

It is my hope that people will be challenged to reconsider what are considered the givens of the current culture. Your biggest help to me dear reader will be to often remind me that God is Sovereign and that all that is, is because it pleases him. View all posts by jetbrane
