From
Cause to Effect
The cause is
mutilation, the effect is correspondingly deep. But why would anyone
intentionally rip into the integrity of the human system that has been
developing and self-developing over millions of years across twenty ice ages
with an 'economic' strength that has enabled mankind to overcome the greatest
obstacles that the natural world has imposed. The tempering with the integrity
of this highly successful system is evidently not intended to improve it, but to
subdue it for social, political, and economic control. And this tampering takes
us back almost to the very beginning of the recorded history of civilization.
A near-invisible
thread binds all the facets listed in the title into one interlocked tragedy
that has enormous economic, political, and social consequences. Nor does this
thread have a single beginning. Circumcision, the practice of male sexual
mutilation by means of cutting away the foreskin of the penis, appears to have
originated independently in ancient Mesopotamia and in the early Egyptian
dynasties of the Pharaohs as far back as 2,500 BC. It is believed the Egyptians
circumcised their slaves at first and that the female mutilation came out of
that much later. The aboriginal Australians are also known to have circumcised
in distant times, long before they had any contact with the larger world.
Likewise some aboriginal cultures in the Peruvian Amazon had practiced it,
together with the infibulations (female mutilations) that were practiced there
long before the Spanish conquest. In either case there is no known trace that
one can point to that leads to a single source of origin for these practices. It
is amazing, however, that these practices have persisted for so long spanning
many cultures and religions, considering the deep-reaching damage they have
caused with enormous consequences for society across the world.
Most empires, going
back in time to almost 4,500 years in the past, including most of the great
religious empires of the later millennia, have used the circumcision to develop
a slavish society. A vast range of myths have been created by the 'enslaving'
rulers to justify their desired demolition of the integrity of the human system.
Even a lot of medical myths have been created for this purpose in order to
justify it, such as for the purpose of hygiene.
It would be
surprising if the modern rulers of empire wouldn't impose this time-honored
social demolition process on modern society, especially in America, since they
have been trying to destroy the USA as the greatest threat to empire from the
very day the USA was formed. So, should one be surprised that circumcision in
America has become increasingly universal in the postwar period, to the point
that it is barely optional anymore? No one should be surprised. Should one be
surprised that now 100 million American men have already been sexually
mutilated? With the empire bearing down on America, this is not surprising.
Should one be surprised that in some cases the saturation has reached over 90%?
No surprises here! The effects are clearly visible. We see America's industries
destroyed, while nobody stops the still ongoing process. We see millions thrown
out of their homes while the leaders protect the system that tears the social
and economic fabric apart. It appears that any atrocity is now possible in the
name of private profit or private property, no matter who is hurt, and virtually
no one protests. There are no strong protests, because most people don't feel
themselves as being a part of a nation anymore. The connecting intimacy is gone.
The American society sees its Constitution torn to shreds and trillions poured
into war to destroy foreign nations, while nobody holds the criminals
accountable. The American people have become isolated from their humanity and
their sense of society. It seems the reason why the rule by terror is so
effective in America may be that it reawakens the dramatic terror of the
circumcision. America now sees its soldiers coming home from war so deeply
physically and psychologically disabled that more veterans commit suicide at
home than are a killed on the battlefield. None of these are normal symptoms,
but they are symptoms of a mutilated society subjected to war, the very symptoms
the masters of empire desire.
The reason why the
effects of circumcision are so dramatically visible in the USA appears to be due
to the stark contrast between its debilitation in modern time and the nation's
historic success when the USA illustrated to the world what a normal society is
able of accomplishing. America was once the bastion of freedom, the
technological innovator, the economic pioneer, the moral giant that stood
against slavery, the champion for the general welfare. Having been there, the
loss of that great achievement is more visible as if it had never been seen what
a normal human society can accomplish.
Many other societies
did not have the kind of history of humanist achievement that the USA has had in
its days of greatness. In Judaism circumcision became a religious command in
distant ages already that assured the near 100% compliance that has been the
norm over long periods. With this in mind, should the world be surprised that
Judaism has had a rocky past with its people becoming victims of persecution for
countless reasons, and is now being the master thereof itself while it rarely
has been a champion for economic development. Judaism, of course, is loved in
the halls of empire, if indeed it didn't become the driving force of empire
itself and at the same time also its victim.
Russia, as the
perpetual target of empire, has had more than its share of the social
consequences that result from the circumcision mutilation, far more than most
people may realize. The historic genocide surrounding the massacre in the
Ukraine is a case in point. Should one be surprised? No. However, it is
surprising how Islam became infiltrated. The holy Koran demands neither male nor
female mutilation. It appears that the practice became gradually adapted
in the Muslim world as a religious edict built on the long standing Arabic
tradition that goes all the way back to the Pharaohs. Of course we have no
way of knowing if or not that sexual mutilation was imposed at the time of the
Pharaohs for the enslavement effect that the sexual mutilation brings with it,
which the rulers of the early societies might have valued, and which the modern
masters of empire still value. Researchers suggest that the sexual mutilation
was applied primarily to the slaves in ancient Egypt. In any case, the general
pattern appears to be fairly simple.
Homosexuality
and Lesbianism
Strong evidence
suggests that the male sexual mutilation, the circumcision, developed as a means
for social control and domination by means of inflicting injury, both in the
form of the 'surgical' drama and in the subsequent loss of sexual sensitivity.
The sexual loss has been dramatically described by persons who chose the
circumcision later in life, who were therefore able to experience the
difference: One person described the loss, 'like living in a world without
color.' Another said that he would give anything to get back what he lost, so
great was the loss. He would even give away his house. But this loss cannot be
restored. It is permanent. What has been cut away, cannot be replaced. The
resulting loss of the natural intimacy that comes with it and with the
corresponding rise is social isolation together with related factors, appear to
have given rise to the widening phenomenon of homosexuality, lesbianism, and
pedophilia. All of them appear to be prevalent where circumcision is prevalent.
Then, as if the resulting tragedy wasn't tragic enough, the victims of it are
slandered in addition to their tragedy, which makes the tragedy worse and the
face of society still more shameful.
Researchers suggest
that lesbianism is a related 'safety valve' that enables the female expression
of intimacy to continue between women that had become diminished or is no longer
available in the disabled male-world, affecting the heterosexual world. It is
further suggested that the accompanying female sexual mutilation, all the way to
the complete infibulation of women, was imposed as the increasingly insane
response in the male dominated world in an effort to suppress the 'escaping'
intimacy among women, especially in the harem. The evident purpose of
infibulation was (and still is ,so it seems) that the women would be kept under
male domination and enslavement. The historic pattern tells us that wherever
male circumcision is prevalent, homosexuality and lesbianism are also prevalent,
and wherever this prevalence is extreme, female sexual mutilation is added to
the darkness of the scene of the social mutilation and enslavement.
Infibulation,
also called "Sunna."
"Sunna"
means tradition in Arabic. The 'tradition' for women is sometimes called the
"Pharaonic" cut for reasons that the operation was already recorded in
Pharaonic times in Egypt. But it is not just a simple circumcision for women.
Even the process for merely removing the prepuce of the clitoris is a very
delicate operation. And this is more critical when it is done on a child. It
requires great surgical skill, good light, surgical tools, an anaesthetized,
motionless body, and of course a good knowledge of the anatomy involved. But
that's not the prevailing condition in rural Africa and the Middle East. The
scene there is a scene of struggling and screaming children held down by force,
often onto the ground, with the cutting being performed with crude knives in
dark huts and without anaesthesia. And the operations carried out there aren't
the simple ones. The most frequently done operation throughout Africa consists
of the removal of the entire clitoris, usually together with the adjacent parts
of the small lips and far too often also all of the external vulva with the
exception of parts of the large lips.
Typically such an
operation would be carried out in the home in the presence of several women,
mostly relatives and neighbours. There was a time when all girls, without
exception, were required by tradition to undergo this mutilation. It was a
requirement for marriage. In many countries the mutilation is now forbidden by
law, but is rarely persecuted. This means that in many cases the operation is
shifted back from the hospital's operating room the 'wood shack.' The operation
there is never a ceremony. It is torture. It is butchery.
The naked girl is put
on a stool. A number of women spread her legs apart, wide. Then one of the elder
women sits down facing the child with a kitchen knife in hand, separating the
girls outer and inner lips. She pierces the hood of the clitoris and cuts it
open. Then she begins to cut the clitoris out. Another woman wipes off the
gushing blood with a rag. Then the older woman puts the knife aside and digs
with her sharp fingernail a hole the length of the clitoris to detach it and to
pull it out while the little girl screams. Scream is all she can. Being held
down, she can't move. All she can do is scream, but no one pays attention to her
pain. Every one of the women in attendance has been on that stool. They know
that the procedure must be done no matter what the cost, and they know why. They
know that the pain must be endured somehow, and will be endured though it seems
unendurable. Several of the other women keep wiping the blood away while the
elder woman finishes her job, pulling and cutting the detached clitoris out of
the girl. Finally she is making the last cut to the bone with her knife. Once
this is done she removes the remaining flesh, digging with her finger to remove
any remnant of the clitoris among the flowing blood. At this point other women
are invited to put their probing fingers into the bleeding hole to verify that
every piece of the clitoris has been removed. But this isn't the end. The most
important part of the butchery is just beginning. The woman cuts off the inner
lips of the child's vulva and discards them as the helpers continue to wipe the
blood away with their rags. Next the woman begins to scrape the skin away off
the inside of the large lips of the vulva until the bleeding lips, now a giant
wound, can be tied together and be held in place with thorns that must remain in
place until the wound is healed. The operating woman leaves only a tiny opening,
kept open by a small tube of bamboo, just large enough for urine and later the
menstrual flow to pass through. At this point the girl can't scream or cry
anymore, being too exhausted, but merely vomits. A concoction of plant juices is
forced down her throat. In the end the tortured girl is made to sand up. A woman
in attendance pours water over the wound and wipes it with her rags. As the
final step other women immobilize her thighs by tying them together with ropes
and apply a bandage from her knees to her waist, which must remain in place for
two or three weeks while she remains lying on a mat till the wound heals.
This kind of
torturous tragedy has been the fate of many of those hundred million girls and
women that are now living in a sexually blinded world, with many of them
struggling with various complications that frequently leave them crippled and
disabled for life. The mortality is evidently high, but no records are kept.
Death in childbirth later on, due to obstructed labor, is never admitted to be
caused by the mutilation, nor will the depth of the women's psychological
trauma, which is lifelong, ever be known to anyone but the the women themselves,
if indeed they can fathom the depth of it.
Many of the countless
reasons that are given for this supreme sacrifice are as cruel as the procedure
itself, which deepens the psychological trauma even further. It is said that a
woman is considered dirty and polluted unless she has been mutilated, and also
that a woman is incapable of controlling her sexuality so that a girl who is not
mutilated will run wild and disgrace her family. Women who have not been
mutilated are considered prostitutes. It is further said that women's external
genitalia are ugly and must be removed to make her acceptable to a man. It is
hard to imagine this added mental torture, adding insult to injury.
While some progress
has been made to halt the practice, much more needs to be achieved. Too much
secrecy, too many myths and games of status, and plain economic pressure still
prevail that keep the blood flowing. Female genital mutilation has been outlawed
in some countries. As the result the frequency and also the extent of the
procedure has become reduced. Many forms of mutilation that are practiced today
are far less radical, although the full infibulation is still on the agenda and
is generally regarded as the only guaranteed means to make unauthorized sexual
intercourse impossible. Because of the importance that Muslims attach to
virginity, infibulation continues to be performed primarily to guarantee that a
bride is 'intact' when purchased. The smaller her opening is, the higher will
the price be that can be demanded at the sale of a bride. The girl is often
inspected before the price is paid. Many African men continue to refuse to marry
girls who are not excised, at least in part, and for many women being married is
still the only career available in most parts of Africa.
Obviously, the
mutilation is absolutely insane. Why would anyone want to marry a severely
damaged girl? Would anyone go into a car lot and say to the car dealer, you have
nice cars here, I like the red sports model over there; I'll buy it, but first
you have to go and hire a street gang of thugs with baseball bats to get them to
mutilate the car - do it, and I'll pay the price; do it thoroughly and I'll pay
you double - though the warranty must still apply. Nobody would buy a car like
this. However, a hundred million such mutilations are on the streets in human
form. A broken car maybe useless, but a broken person makes a willing slave.
So,
it is a case of economics, isn't it?
The economics are in
a different context than one might expect. Just look at the parts of the world
where this is happening. Female mutilation happens mostly in North Africa, the
Southern Sinai, and in Indonesia. Look at the economies in those areas. You are
looking at crisis territory. A mutilated civilization does not function well. It
has been hollowed out and made unproductive. Then look at male circumcision in
the same way. You will find the major male mutilation again in North Africa, the
Sinai, with additional territory extending north to Turkey and all the way to
Kazakhstan, including the entire Middle East, and again including Indonesia.
There is a complete overlap. The female mutilation falls into the same area
where the male mutilation is prevalent in a big way. The entire area where this
is happening is economically barren or nearly so. The only difference is that
the male mutilation is over six times bigger in scale and covers more nations
including the USA, and covers more religions and tradition. The most male-mutilation victims are Muslims, some 500 million of them. The USA comes in
second with 100 million. The USA is still at the beginning stage. Its mutilation
began rapidly, unfolding primarily from the Cold War onwards. The Philippines are
third in the world in total number of cases, amounting to roughly a quarter of
the U.S. total. South Korea clocks in with 14 million cases, and the Jewish
community with half of that. And guess where all the political trouble spots are
and where the economic breakdown cuts deepest. You will find that the mutilation
of society and the decay of civilization are going hand in hand. There is a
parallel rise in the political and economic disintegration of America with the
rise in the ratio of society's mutilation. The loss of the natural intimacy
appears to be reflected in a corresponding loss in national and economic
intimacy. The intimate sense of being connected to a nation becomes thereby
diminished and the sense of the general welfare looses its foundation in the
same trend and falls by the wayside. And so the foundation for economics becomes
increasingly lost, and the same loss is seen for political integrity, with the
corresponding loss of freedom.
And still, the
disintegration goes deeper. In the shadow of the mutilation that cuts deep into
the fabric of society, especially its intimacy with its humanity, a trend
towards ever greater brutality begins. The sheer brutalities that history has
recorded from ancient times, of the barbaric empires, are becoming back to the
surface in so-called civilized nations. Just look at the holocaust in Palestine
and who supports it logistically. Look at the holocaust in Iraq stirred by so
many hands, and so on. A whole new era of brutality is unfolding, and it isn't
all imposed from the top down. Sure, a broken people are far more readily
enslaved by today's ruling empire than a whole people, but once the mutilation
has been imposed its consequences carry forward the torch of horrors by its own
momentum. The U.S. Constitution and its principles have already become scrapped,
housing, healthcare, industries, infrastructures are all allowed to disintegrate
as if people have lost their intimate connection with their own humanity as
human beings. The general welfare simply falls by the wayside. Depopulation
becomes the new song. The brutality has become so great that food is being
burned while 980 million people are starving, and whatever food remains is so
insanely jacked up in price that it becomes unaffordable. People think they know
why they are doing this and the imperatives for which this is done, but really
don't have a clue. It is almost a cheap excuse to blame the financial
controllers over the U.S. Congress and Senate for the insane legislation that is
being enacted there, and for the stalling of legislation that should be enacted.
But this excuse wouldn't even be possible if society would still be whole and
not be robbed of its social, national, and economic intimacy that a normal
society values and defends. We may not see the infibulation of women on the
agenda in America (yet), but we see the equivalent of it in countless ways, too
many to be listed here.
That is how the USA
has been lost, and how Africa has been so easily turned into the imperial
playground that it became over that last centuries.
And so one must ask
what happens when the next glaciation cycle of the still ongoing Ice Age (the
Pleistocene Period) begins with its next start already overdue? Will America
have the strength to survive? The evidence stands against that. Will the Muslims
have the strength to survive, or Israel? That's highly doubtful. Then look at
the map again and observe where you won't find that mutilation of society in
progress. This gives you Europe. It gives you Russia, China, India, Malaysia,
South America, Mexico, and possibly also Canada and Australia. That is where you
will likely find the economic strength in society that will enable it to survive
the next Ice Age cycle, provided that these countries won't be destroyed
beforehand by the madness of the masters of the universal circumcision, who are
projecting their raging emptiness in waging wars across the world. The USA
doesn't have any strength left. At present it only famous for torturing and
killing, instead of building and uplifting civiliation. A 100 million mutilated
males in the USA adds up to 70% of its entire male population, and that covers
all those who should be economically active. The uncircumcised male population
is dying out in the USA. The circumcision is now nearly universal. It is often
automatically applied at birth. Only the consequences remain the same and their
effects are mounting up, especially the economic and political effects. Deep
incisions into the integrity of society have already destroyed much of its once
tall civilization. The circumcision is seen reflected in many non-biological
ways that reflect the underlying tearing apart of the integrity of the delicate
complex system that our humanity is. The infibulation is also reflected in
countless cultural end economic aspects of destruction, such as the free trade
fascism and looting globalism - the very forces that tear away universal
protection and demand an end to the integrity and sovereignty of nations and
their self-rule and self-development.
Two
faces of Zion
Like a Samson who was
deceived, America, as countless people of many regions in the world, was by
deception shorn of its strength. But unlike the solution that Samson resorted
to, by bringing the house down on himself and his deceivers, an intelligent
society has better options available.
The American
spiritual pioneer, scientist, and 'economist' of the 19th Century, Mary Baker
Eddy, defined an ancient term that perfectly describes the modern world in terms
of its still increasing inner mutilation. She defined the term, Zion, and
defined it in two parts. The first part she defined as "emptiness,
desolation." This definition describes well the gradually discovered
effects of the circumcision. It also describes equally well the contemporary
world scene of empire aiming to subdue all nations and draw them under the thumb
of its coveted World State dictatorship, a world without true democracy, without
sovereign nations, without national self-rule and national self-development,
bound to the force of elitist rule and corporatist power. In humanist terms,
this adds up to emptiness. Many nations are already feeling the emptiness
and desolation of this universal Zion becoming expressed, as the world is
increasingly becoming a world without hope for billions, and a world of poverty,
unemployment, political madness, perpetual war, unbridled economic thievery,
such as the current oil price blackmail operation that is pure fascism, and the
growing universalization of hunger and starvation that is already affecting 980
million people while vast amounts of food are being burned in the form of
biofuels and the world is dancing to the lies of manmade climate change.
In addition the world
is being set up to witness the escalation of this far-spread universal Zion of
emptiness. The world is set up for a firestorm that is staged to be spreading
worldwide from the Middle East. There the three great circumcised cultures -
Israel, America, and the Muslim world - are facing each other with rage, just as
the masters of empire wish it. The prepared-for conflagration promises to become
a war that no one can win, which the whole world is set up to loose. It is
prepared as a triple 'fire' for which nuclear war is already on the table, as
well as the spectre of modern biological and radiological warfare, and
also vaporized uranium (DU) warfare that the world has tasted only a tiny bit of
until now while apparently millions are are already suffering. Healing is
needed, not war. Should this war unfold, and should history not end in the wake
of it, then the war that is now being prepared may in future ages become known
as the Triple War of Universal Emptiness, a war between the great powers of the
emptiness of Zion, not its healing face. The triple war of the champions
of emptiness is designed to burn down the house of civilization.
That's what's in
store for us all as the mutilation of mankind continues. But who knows the
reason why it continues? Should it not have been stopped long ago? It continues,
because the science has not yet been developed to stop it, the science that can
lift us above the mutilation, that can make us aware of what really stands
behind the madness and enables us to shift our humanity to higher ground.
Just as the woman who
squats at the feet of a little girl - knife in hand, ready for the infibulation
to begin - thinks she knows why the torture has to be done, but really doesn't
know, so the modern legislators who vote for free trade, for looting globalism,
and for pointless endless wars, don't really know either that they are voting
for. The woman who infibulates another only thinks she knows, but is in fact
completely ignorant about what really stands behind the process. The same must
be said about most of the modern legislators that are evidently all ignorant of
the deceptions that have ensnared their thinking and is expressed in their
torturous and even murderous actions. From the woman to the legislature and
presidents and 'kings,' all who live in the environment of the mutilation of the
human system, who have lost their their intimacy towards one-another as people
and as a nation and with themselves, are ruled by the resulting emptiness and by
the manipulating hands of empire that have created the emptiness to disable
society and to eradicate the functionality of nations.
Nevertheless, people
are human beings, with a spark of Soul that can never be really extinguished. It
is highly likely therefore that some of the woman who perform the infibulation
on a helpless little girl, sense deep in their heart that their actions are
terribly wrong. When the little girl screams as the knife cuts into the living
clitoris the woman must feel some of that immense pain. Any human being would.
She must therefore see herself as a betrayer of her humanity, of herself, even
as a butcher, a torturer. But having lost so much of herself in the environment
of the shredding of human integrity she shuts off of this cry of guilt. She puts
it away with the notion that it isn't really she herself who is doing the
torturing, but the cruel religion, or tradition, or whatever system or 'machine'
is demanding this to be done. Thus she proceeds guiltless and the tragedy
deepens. She banishes her own human pain as irrelevant, and carries out what is
demanded by the system she serves, the 'machine.'
She is not alone in
her fantasy of being guiltless in such crimes. Some of the world's most famous
imperial financiers claims the same freedom from guilt for the same reason.
When their home country was overrun by the Nazi war machine, he denounced their
national identity and became a part of the Nazi machine and its crimes against
humanity. They participated to stay alive. They probably did whatever crimes
were demanded, which were likely small. Some said in later years that they could
live with their deeds without guilt since it wasn't them who were doing the
crimes, blaming the Nazi machine, which they merely served. One of them said
that those years in the Nazi service were a revelation to him. They became the
happiest years of his life a life of guiltless servitude. Some continued their
guiltless servitude after World War II ended, and remained happy in their craft.
Movies have been made about them, such the recent film, Inside Man. Only the
names of the machines have changed that they now serve, and the magnitude of the
pain that they inflict on the world in the service to their masters has
increased without bounds. This type of song, is the same as the old 'woodshed'
song that had disabled so many girls in hours of immense pain. This type of song
is now sung by the mightiest of the rulers of the vulture funds, and the grand
masters of speculation, the masters of the greatest rings of organized crime the
world has ever seen, and the architects of the greatest now impending economic
and financial collapse in history. So, it is not an innocent song, and
there are many who are now singing it.
The
spiritual and human face if Zion
Mary Baker Eddy's
spiritual definition of the ancient term, Zion, is: "Spiritual foundation
and superstructure; inspiration; spiritual strength." Society's spiritual
strength can be rebuild with the resources that are its spiritual foundation.
The debilitating effects of the still growing biological circumcision, which
itself cannot be reversed, can be negated by overcoming the loss scientifically
as people begin to reclaim their natural humanity on a ground above biology. The
deep cuts into the integrity of the human system can be overcome by society
recognizing how deeply it has been deceived and injured in the war of empire
versus civilization, thus making the requisite scientific efforts in stepping up
to higher ground for the recognition of itself as human beings no matter what,
seeing itself as a society of workers, artists, engineers, creators, builders,
the builders of civilization on a platform of intimate sharing, cooperating,
manifest in mutual support and the principle of the general welfare.
This higher platform
has always been the traditional platform of mankind and a constantly expanding
one. The tragic exceptions from this rule that are presently endangering the
whole world are the anomalies. The science for rebuilding the platform of
humanity is a spiritual science that stands on higher ground than mere
intellectual proficiency and is therefore within reach for all mankind to
recognize, to acknowledge, and to express, uniting and uplifting all religions,
cultures, and aspirations. Ultimately there is but one Truth, and one Soul and
one Love. The Truth that we are all human beings, the tallest development of
life on this planet with an integrity, honesty, and economy, second to none,
cannot be disputed. The Soul of mankind, not the emptiness of a trashed Zion,
defines the future on this planet, expressed in intimacy, sovereignty, and a
spiritual understanding that comes from the heart. Our Love is forever a
principle that eradicates poverty with generosity, injury with healing, and the
world's countless form of imprisonment with freedom.
No blight, no broken
wing, no moan,
Truth's fane can dim;
Eternal swells its music-tone,
In heaven's hymn..
(adapted from the
last verse of the 1897 poem, Christ
and Christmas, by Mary Baker Eddy)
