Oct. 5, 2005 Claiming to follow Jesus the Messiah yet burning down the homes of poor Black people living close by where you live is an example of "good Christian" intolerance and hypocrisy hard at work. This happened in quite a few small US communities during the first half of the twentieth century. The same kind of ruthless "good Christian" intolerance in the state of Illinois burned out the first Mormons. Middle East, USA, Africa, etc... why is it that the people of one religion and/or ethnic group are totally intolerant of people from another social group, so that their differences can't be reconciled without escalation to more and more hate and violence? The reason is that the prophesied Messiah has not yet come and taught all nations the peace message. The global messianic lesson has not yet become common knowledge. Humanity is still immensely destructive and wasteful because the messianic rule of creativity and thrift is not yet common knowledge. I have for example recently received a letter from an angry man who expects me to answer all his letters. The truth is I have too many things to do already. I can't possibly do them all. I have to prioritize. I truly need assistants to help me do the many things I need to do! Probably you are in the same boat, if you've got a good thing going. So hey. Let's shake on that! Hate mail is difficult. But mail is only mail. It's a lot worse when people in your community are burning crosses on the lawn and doing other things designed to intimidate. Bad works are harder to rectify than bad words. Bless his soul, along comes "Skip To My Lou" who is a U-K preacher who likes to dance around the same old issues about Jesus and His alleged messiahship. Good and sincere as Skip is, the antiquated myth is Jesus Christ the Lamb of God was a sacrifice for the sins of humanity. This is terribly old hat. Not even a goat would chew on it. Furthermore I tell you, lots more billions of humans have lived since Jesus died than ever lived before Jesus. Besides, if Jesus really was "The Messiah," He would have brought peace to the Middle East like the prophecy said He would do. So what went wrong? Who has a theory of de-escalation of conflict that can be tested? Now I have a theory of de-escalation of conflict. My theory is testable. All we need is a community of humble persons who are willing to study the theory and test it under the supervision of experts on testing and data analysis. (That is, if the people in the new community really feel that scientific validation is necessary.) Some people are saying that I don't know anything about science. The professors who know me wouldn't say that, but some people are brazen enough to jump to a conclusion just because of a few words in my articles. Be mindful that the words I write are not the means I use to de-escalate a conflict. Words can be inflammatory and not all of us are totally diplomatic using words. So that is one messianic rule of de-escalation of conflict: statements are to be taken lightly, and in good humor. What a person does is more important than what he says or writes. Bad language can be do to a handicap. Furthermore, songs use more of the brain and songs convey better the use of words than words alone without any singing to convey them. There is also the principle of balance and unity, which people can use more to help more persons do better. The basic rule is "strengthen the weaker member." That is, when a person is poor in spirit, you help them get more spirit. When a person is poor in money, you help them get more money. When a person is weak in one part of their body, you help them heal and strengthen that weak part. By "you" I mean your society, your culture...that's you and all your friends. You don't just up and burn some minority group out of town, for crissake! I grew up hearing about Jesus, and for a time I accepted Jesus as THE ANSWER. I sincerely believed in Christ. Difficult trials, reflective thinking, and further testing showed me some flaws in the conventional teachings. Then I worked out a messianic healing method which helped me see more facets of this glittering crystal. I hold this crystal up in my hands and its light reaches you now through your own intuitive channels. If your intuitive channels are open. If your intuitive channels are open you know that I am just one teacher out of many teachers, and when the messianic era comes all these teachings will be summed up and used to de-escalate tensions and eliminate poverty throughout all the nations. As soon as the people want this de-escalation to begin, it will begin. The new Peace Center will grow rapidly as peace teachers from every nation come and support it. Letters of intolerance, scorn, and impatience will just be answered with more of my letters and articles proclaiming that the answer is here. Careful testing will prove I am right. But to perform the testing, many persons will need to work together and interest more reputable and humble scientists. By reputable scientists I mean scientists who are willing and able to themselves study the teachings and apply the principles. Humility is required. The end of intolerance and bigotry is at hand. The more people who WANT this to be true, the more true it will become. Reason and intuition are like the left leg and the right leg. Working together a strong man can run a mile. When reason is weak, the man can't even hobble half a mile. When intuition is weak, the man is similarly crippled. To integrate reason and integration one has to integrate the mind and the body. Schools teach dis-integration, not integration. My books say more. To follow this method, you study integration and you work to integrate. There isn't any easy way for an adult. But for a little child whose brain isn't yet broken, the way of integration is relatively easy. Just let the healthy children interact with integrated masters who are not only yogis but who also are integrated in the messianic sense. They have applied the messianic rules. Many people today are almost there! Why do I call these messianic rules? Well the myth is that "The Messiah" would bring the nations together and keep them at the peace table. Jesus did not do this. Jesus was simply not the mythical Messiah. Even so, Paul and other enthusiastic preachers made Jesus the Center of a new religion. The history of Christianity is rife with intolerance and violence, and not just against poor Blacks. I've written some provocative things on Useless Knowledge Magazine to get some dander up and flush out some game. The fierce hate I've seen in people's eyes can soon be turned into fierce love. Love's arrows are more powerful than hate's darts. No one should take my advice without testing my claim. If you and I disagree, we will come to reduce the tension and conflict we feel and together we will become more intelligent. Intuition and reason can work together with love and other strong forces. When I get the new Peace Center I won't charge you any money to visit me and interact with me. I will be paid same as everybody else at the new Peace Center. People at the new Peace Center will work for love, not for money. But still, one needs the necessities of life. That goes for lots of other people who today are suffering at the hands of opportunistic and self-centered rich people. The balance needs to be struck. A good person senses the balance in a person who is integrated. The more integrated YOU are, the more you will sense the balance in another integrated person. But a person who is impatient, intolerant, and ready to ATTACK is dangerously out of balance. They need to study the messianic rules first and apply them for awhile. Then they will be more sensitive in the way a balanced person is sensitive. They will be more calm and more peaceful. How many thousands of books have been written about Jesus The Christ? How many false Messiahs since Jesus came have been hailed as The Promised One? Why do more and more people come on strong, get a bunch of followers, and then get worshipped as The Messiah? Let them all come to the new Peace Center and make peace. The answer is no nation yet teaches young people the messianic rules. No nation teaches the integration method by which all the talents in a person get integrated, including the talent that is sensitive to yogic force. Being integrated isn't about being worshipped more and more. Being integrated is about being more and more intelligent. Your education never stops. You remain child-like. I still get letters from people who say yogic force isn't real. All you have to do to prove to yourself that yogic force is real is to humbly study under a guru and submit to the guru and after some time you will feel a lot of yogic force. If not, you are like a tone-deaf person or a blind person. You just aren't talented in that sensitive way. An appropriate master can't teach you a lot. You might be upset by my saying this. So why isn't a congenitally blind person upset for being blind? Why isn't a congenitally deaf person upset for being deaf? Some things can't be changed. Humility is one of the messianic rules. Be happy living within your limits. As a handicapped person and as a poor person I've had to learn this rule. Try and feel better. Try not to be so angry. Be glad that the revolution to peace is finally here! In every nation let the transformation of weapons into new and more constructive devices begin. ------------ About the author: John L.
