Mixed Nature

Mixed Nature As an ontological moderate, I speculate that all sentient beings, and even rocks and molecules, are of mixed natures, part spirit and part material, part good spiritually and morally, and part evil spiritually and morally. God is 99.9% naturally good and through De’s good will, earned and willed, De is for all practical purposes, pure goodness, though a bit of material and evil still innately are part of God. Satan is 99.9% naturally evil, and through Sa’s bad will, earned and freely chosen, Sa is for all practical purposes, pure evil, though technically and literally, though a bit immaterial and good innately. If the axiom that what is and what is not is good spiritually and morally when mixed, and what is evil spiritually and morally, is pure and almost fully concentrated with a monistic, dominant pole trait, that the moderate is good, and the immoderate is evil, it seems that my ontological premised that both God and Satan are of mixed natures, must follow logically and metaphysically if this core assumption is real, governing the world and true, which it is. Therefore, we should not characterize God as all-good, all-knowing, all-loving and omnipresent—God is overwhelmingly these traits. With their mixed natures, God and Satan are able to understand and existentially experience or empathize with their enemies because they are so smart, so empathetic, so imaginary, in part because they share the same natures as their enemies, even that part of their nature is but a jot or iota, under tight control by the majority of their will’s proclivity for sure. God is thus better able to train and guide days angels, prophets and humans on how to fight demons and evildoers because God’s nature is in a small part identical with the innate nature of the wicked, though not at all sharing in their willed sinfulness and wretchedness, a state of being they have freely chosen to indulge in. To share the same nature as one’s enemy allows God to self-reflect and identify De’s own identity, in the sliver of shared natures of the wicked, so God clearly reads their nature, and can define precisely their identity with clear, insightful words and mathematical formulas. We humans are mostly beast, but are part angel from birth, so we can grow in virtue and holiness if we elect to live like God and the godly do.

Not So Elon

 

Here it is, the end of November, 2025. I love tradition but only a fool can deny that we are dashing headlong into a future utterly different from the past, like nothing we could have imagined.


Elon Musk the other day was quoted as predicting that the Age Of AI will change everything, which it will. Elon predicted that money will disappear that people will no longer have to work. I cannot disagree with what he sees in his digital crystal ball.


When driving to work the other morning I heard Salem News radio host Chris Stigall interviewing someone who has invested heavily in a company which manufactures AI robots, as they are perfected, to work in factories, in the fields, to eventually do all the trades work, and this guest said that was a noble advancement for humans, never to have to do blue collar/drudgery type of work anymore.


This guest noted that AI robots will work for free building houses cheaper and better than carpenters have done.


Well, as a long time follower of Eric Hoffer, I too worry that people who get money without working, who no longer have to work, whose drudgery or manual labor or skilled hand labor are now done for them by a class of robot slaves—what will become of people?


People who do not work, who do not do some physical work each day, who do not have to hustle to be productive to pay the bills and support their families—this is a society of wealthy, parasitic drones who will go crazy and join mass movements because work, which used to provide them with a sense of purpose, meaning, a self-respecting identity, self-esteem, a sense of usefulness, something to do with all that time on their hands.


We will need a carve out for people do work, to work also with their hands, to do menial, physical labor, even if a robot can do it faster, cheaper and better.


As individuators who knows the upper limits of strength, efficiency and adaptability that humans could achieve to compete with robots?


Humans not working, not working for money: it must not be so, Elon, for the sake of each person, for the safety of the world.

The West Is In Trouble

Jewish intellectual and reporter, Alan Joseph Bauer, intrigues me. Today, 11/21/25, he posted this editorial on Townhall.com. It is entitled The West Can’t Be Saved. I copied and pasted the article and will comment on it. Here it is: Bauer: “


Bauer: “The West Can't Save Itself

Alan Joseph Bauer | Nov 21, 2025 

 

People live by their biases and ideologies. Truth and facts are simply a waste of time for most.”

My response: Humans are born basically evil, fanatical and without self-esteem, so they hate themselves and hurt themselves and others. Gaining self-esteem is the act of becoming an individuating adult who consciousness is filled with healthy self-love, thereby gaining self-esteem, thereby being able to love and esteem others, to treat them fairly, kindly, respectfully.

When one has little self-esteem, one is emotional more than rational, subjective more than logical, impartial and rational in one’s thinking, not thinking more than feeling. When one is an emotional adult, one lives by one’s biases and ideology. Truth and factors are easily overruled and dismissed by the irrational self-liar.



B: “

If a Jew makes a quick trip to the Holy Land, he or she might make a point of visiting three key sites. The first is the Western Wall, the most visited destination in Israel. The Kotel, as it is known, is a portion of the retaining wall around the Temple Mount, where—lo and behold—the two Jewish Temples stood long ago. No, Abu Mazen, they were not in Yemen, as you so ignorantly suggested. The first was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar and the second by Titus—Titus Arch in Rome memorializes the victory. The Kotel is like a magnet, and oftentimes, a person simply starts crying for no apparent reason when touching the ancient stones. If a person only had half an hour in Israel before having to go home, he’d head to the Western Wall.

The second site is the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron. Jewish tradition has it that the founding fathers and mothers of Judaism are buried there. The massive building on the site was built by King Herod, 

and certain parts of the structure, including the underground burial areas, are off limits. This past Sabbath had 50,000 people visiting the Tomb in memory of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.

The final stop would be Rachel’s Tomb in Bethlehem. I am old enough to remember when it was a very simple stone structure on the Bethlehem Road. One would pass it and the olive tree in front of it, park, and run inside to pray before the massive stone placed over the grave of Rachel, Jacob’s wife. It is a very popular location, and on the day that marks the anniversary of her passing, thousands come to pay their respects and pray for their needs at this holy site.

From downtown Jerusalem to Bethlehem is 20 minutes by car. Approaching the site is somewhat depressing. After an army checkpoint and massive gate, one passes through ten-meter cement walls on either side with watch towers dotting the path. On top of the security barrier is a smaller fence and cameras are everywhere. The old, simple building has been expanded and modernized to look like a fortress. Inside, one can see the original entrance and sign. Everything else looks like a US army base in Sadr City during the Second Iraq War.

The reality of Bethlehem is the reality of the West. Before Israel turned the city over to the Palestinian Authority (PA), it was 85% Christian. The city looked forward to Christmas and massive tourist income. Today, the city is only 20% Christian. Those massive walls are unpleasant but necessary: they keep out the suicide bombers, stabbers, car attackers, and drive-by shooters that are present among Palestinian Arabs. Just this week, two terrorists ran over and stabbed Israelis near Hebron. One man was killed and three were wounded. Arafat was irate when Ariel Sharon built the separation wall, as his trump card—suicide bombers on demand—would be much harder to play. The area immediately around Rachel’s Tomb is ugly but necessary. Either Israel would cede the space to the PA and no Jew could visit and expect to see his kin again, or it could build a complex and ugly set of walls and emplacements in order to allow Jews to go to a Jewish holy site safely. The PA claims the place to be a Muslim grave, and of course, the UN agreed. Those walls are meant to keep out the same people that Europe and the US welcome directly into their communities.

If a person goes to his doctor and is told that he is pretty much healthy but has a very small cancer in his little toe, he would not go home to tell his wife that he is 99.99% healthy. He would be terrified that the little problem could become a life-ending problem. The fact that not all Muslims coming—mostly illegally—to Europe are active terrorists means nothing. Just this week, it was announced that the Muslim Brotherhood branch in the US was cutting checks for $1,000 for pro-Hamas agitators on campus. How many students had their studies and lives disrupted by people demanding the right of Hamas to rape and kill Jewish civilians? The people being kept out of Israel are being welcomed directly into Western cities. Does a day go by without a report of women being harassed in some European city by illegal immigrants? Have we not heard many times from Muslims that their goal is to establish Sharia states where liberal democracies currently exist? Recently, the tenth anniversary of the 

Bataclan massacre was observed. Reports from the time had French officials vowing an end to illegal immigration. Nothing was done there or anywhere else in the Western world. Why? “The more things change...”

The simple answer to the importation of people who hate the importers is ideology. The desires expressed by Muslims to create a caliphate fall on the deaf ears of those who want borderless societies. The left is enthralled with endless illegal immigration and throws enormous resources at people who refuse to assimilate and often state their outright hatred for their hosts. Locals in England are told not to bring their dogs into Muslim enclaves. In Houston, a restaurant owner was warned not to serve pork. Because much of the West has no religious conviction or belief in the goodness of their countries and values, they have no reason to fight back against their demise and conversion into Muslim Country 732. Because the West became enamored with lies, it cannot grasp the truth in order to fight back against its own demise.

 

  • Jews have no relationship with the land of Israel; see three examples above, all centuries before Mohammed was born

  • Israel committed a genocide in Gaza. The Gaza population has grown since October 7, 2023, and the vast majority of those killed were terrorists.

  • There were no cases of rapes on October 7, 2023. Forensic data, first responders, and eyewitnesses demolish this lie

  • Islam is just another religion; unlike other religions, strains of Islam come to conquer, if by war, if by peaceful means.

  • Uncontrolled immigration is a boon; in both the US and Western Europe, illegal immigration has destroyed the social fabric and led to the macabre situation in which the locals play second fiddle to those who broke the law in order to enter the country

And this is only a tiny speck of the lies that are accepted as dogma. For decades, Israel has based its PR campaign on endless data showing that the IDF is the cleanest army in the world, that Israel does not starve civilians, etc. But it all means nothing. Where truth is not the final word on a given subject, proofs and evidence are meaningless. The Oxford Union recently voted last week that Israel is a greater threat to regional peace than is Iran. Israel has never threatened to wipe any country off the face of the Earth; Iran has done it frequently with respect to Israel. Iran hangs gays; Israel gives them parades. Again, in a real world of real truth, the proposition would have lost in a landslide. In a mind-virus third-tier university, Israel was found to be the bad guy before the debate even began.”

My response: The world and the Left, very popular and prominent in the West, and embrace Islam and hate the Jews; that is the ugly truth, and no amount of logic, argumentation or evidence can change the minds of those with their pro-Marxist, pro-Islamic, anti-American, anti-Western narrative.

 

B: “ 

The West is committing suicide. I wish that I could say that I’ll just sit here in Jerusalem and watch, but Israel’s future is intimately tied to that of Europe and the US. The freedoms and rights that we take for granted are going to be snuffed out because the ugly barrier that Israel needed to build in Bethlehem did not make the West understand what it was importing into its midst.”


My response: Yes, the West is committing suicide by not outlawing shariah law in their countries, by allowing Muslims to come into their countries, where they plan to outbreed us, get 30% or 40% oof the population and then take over the country, spreading shariah law and the universal caliphate all over the world.


Now add Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, South African and perhaps Venezuela all cooperating and vying to defeat the West, and set up a one-world empire. Who says evil is not a metaphysical reality and alive and flourishing on earth?

Have Children?

Yes, we should get married, stay married, and have children, as well as work hard and individuate. We need to perpetuate the species. Humans have a right to live and not commit suicide by too much birth control practicing.


Here is an article from Townhall.com which I copied and pasted and will comment on. The article was posted on 11/25/25 and written by Brian Freemen. Here is the article, Brian or B after this:

 

Study: Liberals Get Married Less, Have Fewer Kids, Than Conservatives

By Brian Freeman

Tuesday, 25 November 2025 11:57 AM EST

A widening divide has emerged over the past decade between young conservatives and liberals on the value of marriage, childbearing, and family life, according to a report released Tuesday by the Institute for Family Studies.

The data shows liberals placing markedly lower emphasis on forming families — both in attitude and in practice — compared with their conservative counterparts.

The report attributed this divide in large part to how mainstream institutions in education, media, and pop culture have advanced a mindset that prioritizes an individualistic ethos focused on personal development, hedonism, and, especially, career.”

My response: Here liberals are regarded as self-centered, favoring an individualistic ethos focused on personal development, hedonism and career over marriage, childbearing and family life.



Conservatives likely are more religious and practicing, believing Christians, altruistic and unselfish in their morality, downplaying personal development, hedonism and career in favor of prioritizing marriage, childbearing and family life.

Anyone familiar with my egoistic morality for individuating supercitizens would see that I do not like the way Freemen laid this out. I am conservative and do not favor being selfish or hedonistic, that one should grow up, get married, have children and take family life history but the moderate in me says have your cake and eat it too, that one develops the self and self-realizes too.


Progressive skepticism towards marriage and family life is often rooted in the idea that family places undue burdens on women and that being free of family responsibilities is often held up as an important pathway to living a meaningful and happy life. 

On the other hand, a family-first mindset is resurgent on right-leaning new media platforms, which views getting married and having children as the best ways to forge a meaningful and happy life, and to avoid the plagues of loneliness, anxiety, and depression sweeping young adulthood in America.”

My response: We want people to lead meaningful and happy lives, which requires men and women shoulder the burden of family responsibilities, getting married and having children, all while careers for both sexes and personal development as individuating is highly desirable and morally obligatory, and both family life and individuating will drive away or much reduce the potency of plagues like loneliness anxiety and depression.

B: “

Family-first messaging on the right has been especially pronounced in new media since COVID, as conservative intellectuals and influencers reacted to what they saw as the excesses of the "woke left."

Although marriage rates have gone down for both conservatives and liberals since the 1980s, the declines have been greater among liberals, for both men and women.

According to the report, pooling data from 2021, 2022, and 2024 showed the largest gap to date between conservatives and liberals in the share of women ages 25 to 35 ever married in the 2020s.

For this decade, there was a 16-percentage point difference between young conservative women and young liberal women in the share ever married, at 60% and 44%, respectively. This growing marriage gap is also visible among men.

Just as conservatives are marrying at higher rates, they are also more likely to have children during young adulthood. Indeed, there is not a large decline in the share of conservatives ages 25 to 35 who are parents from the 1990s to the present.

But there is a significant drop in parenthood among liberal young adults. In the 1980s, 65% of conservative women ages 25-35 reported having children.

Young liberal women in the 1980s weren't far behind, with 60% reporting the same.

Since then, childbearing has plummeted among liberal women. In the 2020s, just 40% of liberal women between ages 25 and 35 report being parents, down from 51% in the 2010s.

By comparison, conservative women in this age range had no statistically significant change: in the 2020s, 71% report being parents. That means there is a 31-percentage-point gap between young conservative women and their liberal peers today.”

Only You

 

I read recently that the only person standing in the way of you is you. Now, that is not the total truth, but close enough. If you elect to maverize, then even those in your way cannot keep you from moving forward, though they will punish your wholesome willfulness. Start now, marching towards your dream, your future.

Levin The Hater?

I have long been a supporter and admirer of Mark Levin: I am not blind to the fact that he is arrogant, and can have a mean mouth, but, for the most part, I believe he is principled, brilliant, a truth-teller and on the right track. I land firmly on his side with his feud with Tucker Carlson.


My fear is Tucker Carlson is anti-semitic and that he is or is favoring Christian, white nationalism. I worked for Jews so I know them up close, and they are people not saints. Having said that, they are a remarkable people and are God’s chosen people, but that is not a blank check for them to do whatever they want, or that Israel always does the right thing,


Having said that, I insist that anyone, especially a Christian, practicing antisemitism is doing the Devil’s work, for Satan, above all else, wants the Jews wiped out. I love Christians, I love whites, and I love American pride, but I do not want Christian, white nationalism to become the American Nazi movement.


We need to calm down and do all the things that Christian, white conservatives need to do, without forming a Nazi mass movement in America.


For these reasons I support Mark Levin over Tucker Carlson.


Here is the editorial posted (11/17/25)on Townhall.com by Rabbi Michael Barclay on this subject. I coped and pasted the article and will comment on it: “



A Tale of Two Pundits: Tucker Carlson and Mark Levin

Rabbi Michael Barclay | 5:52 PM on November 17, 2025



For years, Mark Levin and Tucker Carlson have been two of the most prominent conservative voices in the public arena. Currently, they are in a feud with each other. Levin has accused Carlson of being an antisemite and “fake Maga,” and Carlson has called Levin “evil.” Both men have been trusted for so many years, and it is important for the conservative movement in America that we take an honest look at each man, their feud, and the truth.


Levin is specific in stating that Tucker Carlson should not be “canceled” but that people should recognize who he really is.  Carlson is actively trying to stop Levin from pointing out objective truths. Carlson recommends that everyone should reject and never become like Mark Levin. Mark Levin points out the hypocrisy and hate that is inherent in the words and actions of Carlson.

In this feud, it is clear to me which side is righteous and which is dangerous. My prayer is that we all recognize the truths about both men, and choose to support the righteousness and biblical foundation of Mark Levin, and not support Tucker Carlson until, with God's help in opening his heart, he recognizes what he has become and changes his words, values, and actions.
