OOPs! just another tower of Babel


Why do I always get Obama idiot emails and old age joke stuff in my online mailbox?  I would just like to scream when I have to go through 218 emails to have to delete. I really do not have the stomach or heart for all that political crap. Old age email jokes really make me puke.

I now know the reason that the tower of Babel did not work out. I am sure there is a formula that computes the numbers of individuals in a group increases is directly proportionate to the difficulty in making a decision or reaching a conclusion.  The world is arriving to the point in which, “information and language” are universal.  The entire world has instantaneous access to current events by way of sounds and images.  Everyday families come home from school or work, turn on the evening news, and get a birds eye view of the world.  Is it not strange that on every channel there is a repeat of the same exact stories?  Oh sure there is some slight variance but channel after channel just repeats the same stories more or less. Is this our times tower of Babel that God will once again have to destroy? On the other hand, does it mean that the human species is so mundane and predictable that the media moguls already know what to tell the public to keep them complacent and disinterested in politics and decision making on a community level?

Just a few years ago, I started questioning the philosophy and teachings from my professors and evening news commentators.  I grew up in a conservative, Christian home whose family was staunch democrats.  I never heard of the word liberal, right or leftist.  I had no idea that there were actually people who could consider the idea that there was no God.  My family was poor and we struggled with our finances. My mom was a strong willed woman outspoken.  She threw my dad out of the house because of his, “drinking problem,” which caused them to fight all of the time.

I just wanted to party and escape from the rigors of pain and suffering after I graduated from high school.  I got a job and made a good living.  I wanted to have the family and the American dream.  Everything fell apart after ten years and I had to start over.  I had to rethink my dream.  Now I am too old to take up surfing and two young to take up knitting.  Life is passing me by and I need to get a better retirement plan.  I am watching my IRA eroding away and my “significant other” getting older to. 
Peace, love, and happiness to you all
