   God can supply the ideas of resolution to the humans, but the idea of God does not supply resolution to the humans. A right idea about God would supply resolution to any race, but to form a right idea about God means the entity has the wisdom and social skills to supply resolution.

   The comic jests about God owning a cell phone, but truly no one wants to listen to Him or spend time with Him. He cannot “connect” with the creatures, though they seem to have no trouble connecting to each other—without reference to His existence, or the soul’s existence either.

   The main question is when the break comes, where the decision is made that God has asked something unfair or imposed an unfair burden. Nobody in history ever asked this question. Instead there’s a presumption, if there is someone in power, resisting Him is right. However to fail to ask this question, shows there is no concept that power produces order, that a more powerful entity would be wise. Then the lesser entities, the created souls, would rise farther in their own powers and joys, insofar as they could perceive God and follow Him. The Satan concept presumes with power comes oppression. It is selfish desire that resists God. The person wants to do something God does not agree to be wise, good, or even beneficial to his soul. Such souls have not mastered themselves, their minds react to the senses. They have no greater presence, from above the senses, to say they will do what is right, that which tends to joy and power of all the souls. In other words here, Satan is a concept arising out of darkness, that the legends mention, but also weakness, which they did not mention.

   The gurus are ramming themselves firmly on this iceberg, or grounding themselves on this shoal. Just as goat says here they reason, “There is no ‘I,’ we are all part of one whole.” A) There’s no mechanism. B) There’s no true individuality. C) There’s no eternal life. They do not care.

   Goat even smashes it into the Golden Rule here, in a way I had not seen before but springs from the mind of the angel Pastis, trying to say it is literally true if you harm another, you harm yourself. Instead if you harm another, you ruin your own social life and become hated of God.

   The churches are flattery networks, where humans in the matrix are convinced they must be doing the things God will value. The nature of this flattery includes man’s greatest solemnity and aesthetic sense, so at first it can seem like real devotion. Claiming authority or citing a selfless principle, you find out immediately that it has been pure posture—if you can survive the encounter! It is safer to watch at a distance.

   What is love and why do we want to feel it? What is the benefit to spirit, and what is the source of constancy? This question has never been asked on the planet before, because humans identify with the body and for them, love is clutching another for power and security.

   In the end love between immortals is not going to look like human love, largely from the constancy factor. Humans hug and then release, not only with the body but also the mind, following passions linked to sense experience. Divine ones dwell in a pool of love without ceasing.

   The comic reminds me of a song, “What the world needs now, is love sweet love, that’s the only thing that there’s just too little of.” See? The song completely avoids the question of what love is or why we would want to feel it, following the facile human presumption of a body.

   An anti-body love looks bitterly cold to the humans, akin to hatred, because there is no grasping and no release, just awareness of spirit. A passion which is constant, is not like a passion which blows like a wind, coming and going. All practical life must take place in that passion.

   Living for others is not even the real goal. The principles of existence simply don’t allow it, so if a human claims that you know it is a vicious posture intended to dominate now or win riches in Heaven. Watching the moods and contributing to local joy, is not “living for others.” You have to live for yourself, but you have to be noble, like a god or goddess. Many souls equi-aimed to support joy, oddly enough, produce joy.

   The cartoonist criticizes guns in movies, but offers no alternative. This has been the moaning of the goodniks, that they don’t like something but where they have not understood the problem in depth or offered a lasting solution. Really we need minds not entertained by antagonism.
