Sliding Scale of Mercy
05/14/2019


Democracy - Almost half of the population is at the mercy of the majority
Autocracy - Almost all of the population is at the mercy of a few
Oligarchy - All of the population is at the mercy of one


Anarchy - none has the time to be merciful,
Abolish all forms of imposed authority

The cloak of indoctrination - compassion
The shroud of deception - compassion
Those seeking power, those selling something (from religion down) it's all sold as "for my benefit".

Contrariety
04/24/2019

God
I am life,
I am birth
I am redemption
I am light

Satan
I am love
I am pleasure
I am laughter
I am treasure


God
You are death
You cast shadows

Satan
You shun
I accept
I'd like to be a fly on the wall

It's not the vice, it's the indulgence
Moderation
We are creatures of desire, and we pay the price when we take it to extremes
