Old age babble correction

[CGayle]

Adam, warfare was not a universal in pre-history.  I have degree in cultural anthropology, and spent 3 years as a research assistant hidden away reading the "Human Relations Area Files", large files of ethnographical studies.  It is not true that anthropological evidence suggests warfare is a constant throughout pre-history and all cultures.  

One true universal was existence of a religious or a spiritual cosmology.

    Adam responding to the mention of the Mayan Code book and its author:
            Garden of Eden theory? That's the key, here: A common new age mythos, a neo-Rousseau-ean romanticization of the noble savage. Anthropological evidence suggests that warfare has been a constant throughout both history and pre-history in all cultures. The idea that there was a time when all this was due to a time when people "experienced themselves as being at one with their planet" --- where is the evidence for this? It doesn't ring true to any set of data that I can imagine. 

         How did we get to a "higher" consciousness from 200,000 years to 100,000 years ago? Etc. 

         ... The Galactic?     influence the Galactic Underworld?   Whoooeeee... 

            Well, it is instructive to know that this sort of thing is going on. I thought the cult of the Flying Spaghetti Monster was weird---and the instigators of that were doing it intentionally as a joke--- but this??? 

         I get real embarrassed at the confusion in our culture between cultivating an open mind and letting one's brains spill out. 

           Warmly, Adam

        "How have we gotten to this critical juncture? Why are 1999 through 2011 so critical for the survival of our species? My recent book Catastrophobia (2001) theorizes that we are afflicted with a crippling, species-level, post-traumatic stress syndrome that I call "catastrophobia". This trauma complex developed 11,500 years ago as the result of a great cosmic catastrophe in our solar system. This malaise in the collective psyche of our species deepened during thousands of years after the 9500 BC cataclysm, when our ancestors endured starvation and horrific environmental stress. Before this time during the Regional Underworld-100,000 BC through AD 2011--Earth was the Garden of Eden; we experienced oneness with our planet. These events that separated us from nature are deeply buried in our minds. Just like adults who once endured early-childhood abuse that they've largely forgotten, we must heal ourselves by recovering these memories and understanding how they have changed us.
        Catastrophobia presents evidence that Earth's axis did not tilt very much before 9500 BC, when the cosmic disaster disarranged the whole solar system. Therefore, AstroFlash! is structured by seasonality--equinoxes and solstices-because once the axis tilted, early humans quickly learned how to maximize their potential by arranging their lives by the seasons. Seasonality is not taken into account much in modern times, but it actually has a huge influence on human consciousness. George W. Bush invaded Iraq exactly during the Spring Equinox of 2003 because the Elite knew this moment had formative potential. This was also Day Tree of the Galactic, so this invasion caused events that will influence the rest of the Galactic Underworld."
