The proverbial rhyme that describes how small actions can result in large consequences, has gone forgotten. Maybe through our pride we stand back in our hummers and forget that Rome fell because of want of bread as they too failed to see the strategic importance of control of supply
For Want of a Nail For want of a nail the shoe was lost. For want of a shoe the horse was lost. For want of a horse the rider was lost. For want of a rider the message was lost. For want of a message the battle was lost. For want of a battle the kingdom was lost. And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
We have run all our production capacity to China and other off shore facilities to the point that today even prized technology manufacturing can not be seen here in America. It is as though a masterful plan to make the United States kill itself through its own pride and ignorance has succeeded.
Let us consider the parallels between the Rome and the United States.
At the time of Christ Rome has a population of about 1 million and 800 years later its population is down to 30 thousand. Then consider Detroit in ... its the fastest growing city in America and today they plan to turn the city into pasture.
It is not that I would oppose the concept of pasture, I like green grass and sunshine. My concern is more about a shift of global power that can come quickly when we as a people can't make things. When a master slave society such as China or as in the past Nazi Germany can over take through sheer power the democratic institutions of the west and make slaves of us all.
Clearly I have a unique view of history... so if you don't agree with it, then enjoy my fictional story. Constantine in the year 328 becomes the emperor of Rome, he is from the east in the area that today we call Servia, he move this Capital to Turkey (Constantenople) gives the world a new religion a universal Church and by 410 Rome is invaded by the German Aleric ... when Aleric asks Constatinope to help rule Rome Constantinople would care less. Why would Constantinople care to rule with Aleric.... hes a barbarian they dont want Rome ruled they want it destroed and in the hands of people that can't read or write. After all it was Constantinopel that encouraged the Germanic tribes to take territory in the west.
By the time of St Agustine the Vandals had north Africa and the disruption of trade was enough to throw the West into the dark ages.... Rome simply could not feed its self.
Think of the parralle today we the great United States have become a the exact copy of Rome, we have all become Nero, we bop and fiddle ... and can't make anything without the need to import half or all of it . Vast percentage of the population Today our Constantine is in the form of ologorgy of corporate conglomorates that has placed our nation in such a position and is poised to snap the same trap Constantien set 700 years ago.
The solution is

It is my opinion that the east west conflict is as it ever was and has only shifted geographically.
The west as allways stands with England and the east with Germany. Consider first what is Germany... the Alemani, Vandels, Visigoths are not names that the gemainc peoples ever gave to them selves afterall they had no written language untill the middle ages. The names are latin titles given to them by Rome. Germany is in fact the true muscel that was behind the Masedonian armies of Alexander and that both the Germans and Rome are of the same origin.
You common peoples all get killed your homes destroied then I print money and loan it to you so you can rebuild.
You fail your self because of your ignorance, your religion fails you becaue you will kill your savior...
The solution is in you stop asking for Christ to return, you only get one chance, you are not snctified, there are no Christinas becaue there is no Christian Church on the planet. So don't expect him to come save you. Joseph Smith possibly made it up best when he named the angel that gave him the word ... "Moroni" ... do you think he did not know enough Greek to know what the word means ... and whats the name of the lone ranger and his indian companion ?
It would be quite funny if it were not so horrid.
You can't blame the ingnorance on ignorance. The educated people can't save he world without the grace of God, and the Grace of God cant save he ignorance without your acts. Without our acts we create evil and ignorance... as Charlie Manson said "You made your children what they are. . . ."
