The Farmer Ploughs and Cultivates Fields, and Politicians Plough and Cultivate People!!!

Bloggers, I understand that I am a polarizing kind of person, but what else can a person be? I never started at writing about the topics that interest me with the notion on the back of my mind that I don't want to offend somebody out there. People should already know that from the time that we are born, someone is not going to like us for whatever reason. And the adage that states that we can't please everyone...is always going to stand true no matter how many slogans that we come up with that say, "Can't we all get along, or...can we give Peace a chance!" No, we all can't get along and that is why the police beat the crap out of that guy who said that. And the second one got shot to death because of an idiot with hate on his mind. Had the first one not disturbed the peace that had been established by law, he would not have had a problem with the Law that he did back then. And as for the second, had he been genuine in his song messages of hating wealth and living within his means and also not rocked peoples' Christian faith the way that he did his killer, he could still be alive now. I know that we will never please everybody all the time, because there was a time in my early life that Mexican's were not allowed to swim in the river in the neighborhood that we lived in, and the river ran right through it. Why? Because that area was the best area of the river and the White people living across the river claimed that part for their own and didn't want non-Whites near them. Therefore, how could we get along with people who we did no harm to and yet they didn't want us there and further, they made the Laws. What can uneducated ignorant Mexican people do to mitigate problems like that when there was no Raza Unida or Chicano Coalitions with power to influence local government then. And also, the Mexican kids were schooled in public schools that were segregated when I was a kid and placed on slow moving Tracking Educational Systems. We didn't even have a cafeteria in our school. We ate our greasy cold tacos from a lunch paper sack in hallways near rest rooms. Thus, that man who asked the question, "Can't we all just get along," knew very well that was a rhetorical question that he was asking, and a wishful one at that back then. That is why I cannot apologize if some readers cannot agree or like the way that I write. I understand that the material that I write about is hard to hear for some people for various reasons. For some, they may think that I might just be too radical and coarse about what I write about especially claiming that I am a Christian. Perhaps some may think that I am too explicit and graphic with the depictions of the dreams that I relate here because they border on rated "R" ratings. Some people may think that I am delusional or a little on the witchy side because of the dark knowledge that I expose. I am sure that some readers wonder if they even want to venture that deep on the Path of Christianity. This Faith of mine is not for the faint of heart or for those used to luxury and comfort of a nice cozy house. Maybe it is too much for the sensitive ears of the holy and sanctimonious types that are living too much on the inside of the Church buildings and never hardly walk or see the real world that they live in on the outside, I don't know? All I know is that I have put a lot of work into my research before I write about any topic in this blog and about my dreams. And I do go out into the world of the Internet and the Bible and search out as much as I can about my topics before I set to write anything about them. This is a serious endeavor for me, and I treat it as any journalist should. I have to cross references the sources and so that I can pinpoint the evidence that I present here. I have to make sure that the evidence has been tried and proven true and making sure that I get it from credible verifiable sources before I put it into writing. Otherwise, I am wasting my time doing what I am doing here. And I am hoping that the readers are familiar with these topics too, that helps. And one other thing that I have to do to ensure that what I write is credible and that is..., I have to give credit to those other sources from where the evidence came from if it did not originate with me. Plagiarism is not what I do. And to be honest, the titled for this Blog today, came from a conversation in an Asian Korean Movie titled "The Fish Book" that I watched for the first time in my life just two days ago. I love foreign old traditional historical drama Asian Movies that are in black and white. And I have watched movies like this from all over the world also. But Asian is my favorite. Anyway, I got the idea for the title from that movie. If you like, go and watch it on You Tube and I have to say that I just loved it more than I thought that I would. This is ranked high by me because it was captivating from beginning to end. I have to say it was the best! And if you love history, this one is for you. I hope that you love Asian people though. But do you know what, this movie encompasses everything about the Koreans culture and traditions and Government and the introduction of Western Teachings into that culture that was hard to accept for them, especially Catholicism. And even as a Christian, watching all those other ingredients about the Korean people, I recommend it highly to any history and people lover. The struggle of the people to survive and enjoy life with one another is the heart of any story. And that is what I can relate to when I watch these kinds of movies. Furthermore, I loved the way that the movie portrayed the Royal nobilities Politics of their day or that time back then. If you watch it, you will see that nothing has changed in the way systems of governments in ancient times operated to the present. Remember the river situation where Mexicans lived on the West side of the river and the Whites lived on the East side of the river in an adjacent neighborhood in my case in my town. In this historical movie like all Plebian people of the lower classes, the Mexicans had no Rights to swim in the river on their bank where the Whites resort had been built in the 1940's. Damn! If we kids dared to swim too close to the Whites resort, we were shot at with guns and rifles. And we were taxed on everything way too high ourselves also and that is how we were locked in into ignorance and poverty. Watch The Fish Book and see how bad the Plebians in this movie were taxed by the Elite. And watch how the Elites instigated wars and violence among the people through gangs that they hired as well as nefarious merchants, just to keep the people in constant fear and distraction as well as to keep them ignorant about the law, education, and the way the Nobility operated. As I said, nothing has changed from ancient times to the present. However, many people of non-Christian cultures cannot accept, or refuse to accept, that Sin is the culprit to all our problems in our world and hence, keep doing the same things over and over with no different or better results. Because so what if the American Whites in the South didn't care for Mexicans, they were not united themselves and fought among themselves just as all Mexicans did among themselves as well. And look around us, even Christians are not united, and we have the same segments of a divided society in Christianity just like in all other religions of the World. The man who killed John Lennon was a man who had just converted to Christianity and couldn't reconcile the idea that Lennon was espousing another religion that was not Christian. I am a Christian who believes like the Korean Confucians and the Japanese Buddhist, or any other religious group or culture in the world, who have decided as a people or a nation, that they choose and want to stay in that way, well, that is fine with me. But if an individual in that group wants to join another faith because they saw something better in another religion, then why can't they have that freedom to choose. I am not going to go on a killing rampage of a people who don't agree with me over religion or anything else. Unless people of other faiths want to just come an exploit what I have and take it and force me to change my way of thinking and believing just because they say so. Then that is a different matter. But a people of any nation should have the Right to establish a dominant religious belief for that country. For example, White America chose to have the Christian Faith and religion as their established religion. And they said at one time... that would be the Political choice for America to follow. And that is why I love this Country just because they gave me exposure to a form of Protestant religion besides Catholicism. But they gave all the people the right to practice their religion within its boundaries as long as other people did not come and try to overturn that Ruling which stated that America would stand by the Christian Faith, whether by force or any other means because then there would be consequences. Nonetheless, what I saw in the Fish Book was a political Nobility system that did not allow for freedom of choice. And the majority of the people there in this story didn't want any change to their religious system except a few that saw the educational superiority of the Westerners who had greater powers in education and technologies. And the few people who wanted change, saw that the teachings of Jesus Christ were much more noble and honest then what they had. However, their Politics resembled our very own right here today in the United States. And that is a Political system that oppresses its people just because the Nobility claims that they have a birth right to be treated with the highest respect and obedience due to their Divine blood line, money, and authority that they have been given. That is the same line that Nimrod sold the sons and daughters of the Fallen Angels that had sex with many of the ancient humans in the ancient past. If we look at our own Political American System, we will see the same behavior on the part of the ruling Elite here. And just as politics in early and late Korean history with the Nobility, the system remains intact as it has always been everywhere, crooked as always. The system favors the Gangs or paid professional Protestors and paid crooked Merchants in order to disrupt the people and put the fear of death in them if they refuse to comply with its demands. And that is called applying Force to maintain the Status Quo by the Ruling Class. America was never any different than these other nations or cultures of the ruling classes because they dictate what is permissible and what is not. Hence, the Church and State are indeed separated, but it was not intended to be that way. It was slick Willies in politics over many years that hood winked the American people to divide and divorce themselves from the true teachings of Christ Jesus and that is why all Nations suffer turmoil and produce so many problems among the poor people. And as we can clearly see, the World Leaders fight one another to see who will rule over all the world and establish their one world Religion, but whose religion? And as I watched this amazingly well-done movie the Fish Book, I heard a wise man in this story say about the poor people's constant plight as he saw it and said, 'The farmers ploughs and cultivates his fields and crops..., and the Politicians plough and cultivate the people.' In other words, he was metaphorically saying to all of us, that just like the ground gets ploughed; in essences raped...and cultivated; in essence...forcibly programmed or conditioned to receive, that is how life under such rulers is. Thus, farming and politicking are essentially Doubled -Edged Swords. Do you see that we are far, and always have been, from any ideal world where reality is just... and freedom a righteous thing. And as I watched the ending to this moving it gives hope that there will always be those who will sacrifice everything just to at least try to demonstrate to all the world that a better Way does exist to co-exist, but without the double standards and outright hypocrisies. And furthermore, that we can at least educate others so that they can see the difference. So Let Us Sleep On That for now until next time. Peace and Love to the Korean people all over the world too. What beautiful people. Amen.                                                                                                                                                                                                     Respectfully,                                                                                                                                              Ruben N.
