RE: Minnow Mayor Town Hall- An interview with White Walking Feather aka @wwf aka rob of the family page on declaring Peace.

in #peace7 years ago

I really appreciate @wwf for speaking on the topic of self governance in the aggregate sense. It is an inescapable Truth, that qualities such as order, peace, prosperity, harmony - all the things most people say they want to achieve on a societal scale - can only be generated in any given society when the people of that society are living in a state of self-governance based on their individual knowledge of the objective difference between Right and wrong. Any attempt to fix the current societal systems will ultimately fail if the majority of people on this planet remain unwilling or unable to govern themselves according to Moral Principles. @wwf eluded to what I refer to as the "Law of Freedom," when he talks about focusing on establishing peaceful relationships as a pathway to solving the problem that is the current system of violence. Peace, freedom, order, prosperity ect., will organically manifest as the people of this world commit to living a life of peace. The "Law of Freedom" simply states that the degree of Freedom within a society is determined by the degree of Truth and Morality that the people of that society embody. This can be a very difficult thing for many people to understand, and some will violently reject it due to the indoctrination that has been imposed by the system of violence itself. Attempting to fix our current societal systems by political means, legislative means, military means etc., is analogous to rearranging the furniture on the Titanic and expecting it to remain afloat when there is a hole in the ship that is drawing water in and causing the ship to sink. Doing such things does not address the root causal factor of the problem, and we really need to acknowledge this in order to affect REAL genuine and positive change. It takes a lot of courage to speak on this issue because the implications of the Truth require us all to take personal responsibility for ourselves in ways that most people are unprepared to do, and the subconscious or even conscious recognition of this can result in violent opposition in various forms. So thank you @wwf for having the courage to speak about these issues! Much Love brother!!!
