a little about myself

Post by jack »

I am of Dutch ancestry, (Mennonite) though I don't subscribe to their religion, because I believe in the slogan that H. P. Blavatsky put forth "There's no religion higher than truth"
was born and raised in old mexico, speaking only "plat deutch" but soon became fluent in spanish, all the money that I could spare I spent buying books
on philosophy/religion and occasionally occult science, the biggest impact on me was H. P. Blavatsky, second was Socrates, I like his way of logic.
immigrated to the USA in 1974, learning english was hard for me, took me many years.
worked as a "roughneck" for a number of years, now I transport crude oil, the best you can do without an education.
became interested in computers right about when the Apple ][ came out, fascinating what you can do with computers, your only limits are your abilities in programming.
my post are usually short because I am not eloquent, it takes me forever to put the right words together, my ideas fly but my words don't.
right now we are living in a very interesting time, most of us know about the capitalist system, it works every time it's tried but now we have politicians
that are either clueless or have an ulterior agenda, they are spending money we don't have, and what do they do? they print money.
mark my words, the capitalist system is going to collapse within the next 2 or 3 years
what will happen then? Marxism, and not to mention that the UN wants to be in control of the monetary system.
before you discount me as crazy, look at recent history and recent trends.

Hi ! Nice to hear from you :)
For me, the system will learn NOTHING from the crisis and will continue as usual, speculating, creating and selling toxic products, steal money from poor people ...
There were wars from centuries with millions of death so why they (the human) will change where they never change for a more serious reason ? :roll:

KarLKoX the times we are living in are a turning point, it's not going to go as usual, this is "a soul harvest period", terrible hardships are ahead to quicken "the crop", if you know about cotton farming you know what I mean.

I already understood what was behind the first post but i don't see things in a religion point of view but in a philosophical's one even i believe in god.
For me, nothing will happen in a short or mid term.


PS : time to sleep for me :)

Umm - mods, based on the above, it's unlikely anything good will come out of this thread?
