Prophecy is more likely to irritate and annoy than to provide hope and inspiration.
Prophecy is a plow turning up fallow ground in the hope of beneficial future harvest. Then come sowers of seed. Followed by harvest reapers. Finally all are gathered to a common table, where none is left alone and hungry.

How irritating and annoying is that?
 
We are one human being on earth

I must admit I am sorely confused ... one human ... being barcoded?

Hauling up the data on the Xerox line
Then it's code in the data, give the keyboard a punch
Then cross-correlate and break for some lunch
Correlate, tabulate, process and screen
Program, printout, regress to the mean
And it's Ho, boys, can't you code it, and program it right ...
- Stan Rogers
 
The ancient prophets spoke against the abuse of power. In this they stood in solidarity with the population being abused. They also inspired others to refuse the way of power and pursue the way of love.

As a prophet in our day I am instructed by the spirit to make clear that the earth and its peoples are being ruined by the misuse and abuse of power. Each who hears my words has opportunity to reconsider priority and commitment. Not my words alone.

The late sixties saw a remarkable manifestation of the prophetic spirit, as noticed in many of the lyrics posted above. Some among us heard and changed our patterns of thought and behavior. Others refused and conformed to the destructive social structures of capitalism; understood as taking advantage of others in service to personal gain.

We are one human being on earth. We will either learn to cooperate as stewards of creation or we will perish. This is not a matter rooted in opinion. It is rooted in the Word of God.

Is abusing the population ike cutting and burning the demos? Thus demonic fires ... a kind of reaction to inny and outy doers ...

Which way to go is the question? I feel it is getting time to leave this dirty old earth ... word from a mire essence!

The bar code is an excellent way to do connections ... like ganglions in the Nous Rael'd issue!
