Giuseppe is one of 67 young boys who have been named in court documents and were allegedly abused by more than two dozen priests and brothers at the Provolo Institute, according to Verona prosecutors who have been investigating the allegations for nearly a decade and who plan to bring it to trial later this year.  Barbie Latza Nadeau

Graham Peebles: Whilst it is true that a symbiotic relationship exists between society and the individual, fundamentally the external world in which we live is a reflection of the internal life of humanity. Violent, disharmonious societies are the external manifestation of the inner turmoil, discontent and fear that many people feel.

Ron: While this is true, it fails to identify the fact that 'the inner turmoil, discontent and fear' has been created and fomented for millenia by covert Talmudic forces concealed behind a facade of LIES promulgated and enforced by  religions, governments, banks and other mega corporations that completely dominate and control almost everyone and every society on this planet; while almost noone, including this author, is prepared to NAME the problem.

Graham Peebles: Like all businesses, weapons manufacturers operate to generate profits: wars are big business for arms companies, and therefore highly profitable, desirable even. International arms sales (dominated by America, with 34% of the total) according to the BBC "is now worth about $100bn." By contrast, to end world hunger, which currently crushes the lives of around a billion people globally, would cost a mere $30 billion per year. And we wonder why there is no peace - how can there be peace when such gross injustice and inhumanity persist?

Ron: This sort of analysis and rhetoric is part of the problem, NOT the solution! Apart from ignoring the dominant part played by financial manipulations by banks and similar institutions AND the enormous profits generated by human trafficking; fraudulent human healthcare industries; and both legal and illegal drug distribution, It assumes that the primary reason for poverty, societal strife and warfare is the pursuit of corporate profits by corporations. It isn't. Wars and societal strife of every kind are created by the covert bankster controllers of governments who have crafted a global monopoly based on the false and unnecessary money meme AND their control of that meme through the creation and usurious distribution of fiat debt notes (currency) falsely called "money".  The result is that the oligarchic banksters OWN almost everything including the sovereign human global population (see eg: An Investigative Report Re the US Strawman UCC/Redemption Process By Barton A. Buhtz See: http://abundanthope.net/pages/True_US_History_108/An_Investigative_Report_Re_the_US_Strawman_UCC_Red_3358.shtml ) who have been socially engineered and mind controlled into believing debt slavery is legitimate and that they need "money" to live. They don't. Currency doesn't create anything, humans do. Prosperity and abundance depend on the intellectual and physical abilities and efforts of humans applied to the God given, free physical resources of this planet. The Talmudic monopolist trillionaires and billionaires who control global banks and governments and the other mega corporations who run our world  have ensured that there is, and can never be, enough "money" (currency) in circulation to enable most of the human population to avoid poverty. The resulting desperation and struggle ensures that many millions die of starvation and disease every year AND that endemic unemployment provides a huge, never ending stream of recruits for wars and civil strife of every kind. THAT is what creates the impression that people "lose sight of the basic humanity that binds us all together as a single human family." It also prevents most people from exercising "Freedom of thought and independent creative thinking."

Unless and until the covert Talmudic bankster and oligarchic corporate controllers are identified and eliminated from ANY power and control over human life on this planet, the warfare complained of will not cease. Moreover, the issue is NOT the need for corporate profits since the banksters control the creation out of thin air of so-called "money" and its usurious distribution, hence they have as much "money" and the property it commands, as they want.

Graham Peebles: As the Dalai Lama puts it, "there is no doubt about the increase in our material progress and technology, but somehow this is not sufficient as we have not yet succeeded in bringing about peace and happiness or in overcoming suffering...the basic human problems remain."

Graham Peebles: The overcoming of these ‘basic problems' and the realization of peace both flow from the same root: the recognition of mankind's essential unity, and the cultivation of a sense of "universal responsibility".

Ron: Humanity's problems on this planet cannot be resolved by application of the level of thinking that has created them. A critical mass of humans here needs to develop sufficient awareness to enable them to rise to a higher level of consciousness so that they can SEE how and why the current dystopia has evolved; and formulate solutions to overcome its causes. The problem is essentially spiritual and requires an understanding of the causes of our failure to create abundance by sharing and caring for each other. It is not enough to say we should care and share; we need to understand why we don't. To achieve this we will need to rediscover the truth about life the universe and everything that has been concealed from us by atheistic and Talmudic global controllers for millenia.

Steve Taylor: It is important to remember that in the prehistoric era, the world was very sparsely populated. As a result, it is likely that there was an an abundance of resources for hunter-gatherer groups. According to some estimates, around 15,000 years ago, the population of Europe was only 29,000, and the population of the whole world was no more than half a million. With such small population densities, it seems unlikely that prehistoric hunter-gatherer groups had to compete against each other for access to resources, or had any need to develop ruthlessness and competitiveness or to go to war. (In fact, this is illustrated by the evidence for a long period of "prehistoric peace," as I have discussed in a previous blog.)

There are other ways in which prehistoric life was relatively easy, too. Hunter-gatherers had a good diet - one that was arguably better than many modern people's, with no dairy products and a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, roots, and nuts, all eaten raw, as well as meat... One of the striking things about such groups is their egalitarianism. As the anthropologist Knauft has remarked, hunter-gatherers are characterized by "extreme political and sexual egalitarianism" (1). Individuals in such groups don't accumulate their own property and possessions; they have a moral obligation to share everything. They also have methods of preserving egalitarianism by ensuring that status differences don't arise. This is done by sharing credit and putting down or ridiculing anybody who becomes too boastful. The !Kung of Africa swap arrows before going hunting, and when an animal is killed, the credit does not go to the person who fired the arrow, but to the person to whom the arrow belongs. If a person becomes too domineering or too arrogant, the other members of their group gang up against them or ostracize them. Typically in such groups, men have no authority over women. Women usually choose their own marriage partners, decide what work they want to do, and work whenever they choose to, and if a marriage breaks down, they have custody rights over their children. Other recent research on contemporary hunter-gatherer groups has shown that men and women tend to have equal status and influence, leading to the suggestion that sexual inequality only began to emerge with the development of agriculture (2).

So there is no reason to think that selfishness and cruelty are natural to human beings. There is no reason why traits such as racism, warfare, and male domination should have been selected by evolution, since they would have had no benefit to us. In fact, as we have seen, individuals who behaved selfishly and ruthlessly would be less likely to survive, since they would have been ostracized from their groups. On the contrary, it makes more sense to see traits such as cooperation, egalitarianism, altruism, and peacefulness as natural to human beings. These were the traits that were prevalent in human life for tens of thousands of years, during the so-called era of evolutionary adaptedness, and so presumably these are the strongest traits in us now.

********************

Ron: Arguably these current human attitudes and traits are the result of gross Talmudic social engineering and mind control manipulation of human societies on this planet in recent millenia. For instance today most cultures have been fractured and family and extended family relationships destroyed by money meme manipulators (banksters and corporatists) who have forced most people off the land and out of historic self supporting local communities into cities where they have become free range serfs who must sell themselves and their labour to corporations in order to survive. The resultant physical and psychic isolation has been combined with fascist Capitalist and Socialist ideologies to produce socially competitive, "dog it dog" circumstances and mentalities in which even families and siblings fight each other for survival. Obviously this did not happen in hunter gather societies that focussed on sharing and caring and hence they were egalitarian and far less subject to the depredations of control freaks.

Steve Taylor: ...the "fall" into warfare and hierarchy (and other negative traits) was related to a psychological change that occurred in some groups of people, beginning around 6,000 years ago: the development of a heightened sense of individuality and separateness.

Ron: Arguably the so-called 'psychological changes' were primarily due to the loss of knowledge of the truth about life, the universe and everything that resulted in groups of religious and social manipulators and controllers that arose with the development of farming because it required crop surplus collection, retention, accounting and redistribution services. Farming also increased wealth production that stimulated increasing populations. As agriculture and populations grew the planners and controllers became a priestly governing class that developed and elaborated master/slave ideologies which culminated in Talmudism. Subsequently Talmudism spawned many misleading sub-ideologies like Jacobinism, Capitalism, Democracy, Fabianism, Marxism, Socialism, Bolshevism, Fascism, Feminism, Political Correctness and so on all of which are  designed to confuse and manipulate the mass of humanity while concealing the identities of the controllers.

Arguably the widespread psychological development of a heightened sense of individuality and separatenss was a much later development brought on by the destruction of community life at the end of the Medevial period and the onset of the Industrial Revolution which resulted in the European banksters discarding serfdom and chattel slavery in favour of free range serfdom.

The rationale for free range wage-slave workers was spelt out in the Hazard circular sent by London banksters to US banksters in July 1862, in the middle of the American Civil War. It said:

`Slavery is likely to be abolished by the war power and chattels slavery destroyed. This I and my European friends are in favor of, for slavery is but the owning of labor and carries with it the care of the laborers, while the European plan, led by England, is that capital [the banksters] shall control labor by controlling wages. This can be done by controlling the money. The great debt (national) that capitalists will see to it is made out of the war, must be used as a means to control the volume of money. To accomplish this the war bonds must be used as a banking basis. We are now waiting for the Secretary of the Treasury to make this recommendation to Congress.'

The US Congress passed the National Bank Act of 1863 giving the banksters power to create money as debt, but not exclusively. In 1872 Horace Greeley said of the Act:

`We have stricken the shackles from four million beings and brought all laborers to a common level, not so much by the elevation of the former slaves as by practically reducing the whole working population, white and black, to a condition of serfdom. While boasting of our noble deeds we are careful to conceal the ugly fact that by our iniquitous money system we have nationalized a system of oppression which, though more refined, is not less cruel than the old system of chattel slavery.'

Clearly those controlling the Anglo-US “state” knew exactly what free range slavery was about just as they understood what free range empire was about. Colonel Edward Mandell House is said to have given a very detailed outline of the plans to be implemented to enslave the American people. He stated, in a private meeting with Woodrow Wilson (President 1913 - 1921):

‘ Very soon, every American will be required to register their biological property (that's you and your children) in a national system designed to keep track of the people and that will operate under the ancient system of pledging. By such methodology, we can compel people to submit to our agenda, which will affect our security as a charge back for our fiat paper currency. Every American will be forced to register or suffer being able to work and earn a living. They will be our chattels (property) and we will hold the security interest over them forever, by operation of the law merchant under the scheme of secured transactions. Americans, by unknowingly or unwittingly delivering the bills of lading (Birth Certificate) to us will be rendered bankrupt and insolvent, secured by their pledges. They will be stripped of their rights and given a commercial value designed to make us a profit and they will be none the wiser, for not one man in a million could ever figure our plans and, if by accident one or two should figure it out, we have in our arsenal plausible deniability. After all, this is the only logical way to fund government, by floating liens and debts to the registrants in the form of benefits and privileges. This will inevitably reap us huge profits beyond our wildest expectations and leave every American a contributor to this fraud, which we will call “Social Insurance.” Without realizing it, every American will unknowingly be our servant, however begrudgingly. The people will become helpless and without any hope for their redemption and we will employ the high office (presidency) of our dummy corporation (USA) to foment this plot against America.' - Colonel Edward Mandell House

President Woodrow Wilson ceased being president of Corporate US in January 1921. The obvious implication is that Colonel Edward Mandel House KNEW what was to happen (and did happen) at least 10 years before it occurred. The Great Depression was the proximate cause of the bankruptcy of the US and virtually all other nations around the world in the 1930s; thereby enabling the banksters to initiate the acceptance of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) legal system globally and the commencement of the Strawman mechanism in the US and elsewhere. As Colonel Maxwell House was an agent for the Crown banksters in the City of London from whence the policies causing the “tightening” of credit causing the Great Depression originated, there is also a clear implication that the Great Depression was meant to have the effects that it did. By “tightening” credit that is, reducing the supply of fiat money available in the US and in national economies all around the world, the banksters bankrupted the whole world and laid the foundations for implementation of the Strawman illusion and the current global matrix. See eg: The Matrix, the Strawman and WHO You Are. See: http://abundanthope.net/pages/Ron_71/The_Matrix_the_Strawman_and_WHO_You_Are_3030.shtml

Isabelle Z: 'medical malpractice kills 500 times more Americans than accidental gun deaths do! Doesn't that mean there should be 500 times more calls for doctor control than gun control?

The shocking data on malpractice deaths is quite solid. It was taken from an eight-year study from the reputable Johns Hopkins University, who found that there are at least 250,000 deaths due to malpractice in America each year. That's bad enough on its own, but CNBC reported that number is actually on the low end as other studies have found such deaths surpass 400,000 per year. Because physicians, coroners, and funeral directors rarely note human errors on death certificates and these are what the CDC relies on to post death statistics, such cases are dramatically underreported. Either way, it's safe to say that a minimum of 250,000 people die from medical malpractice each year.'
