The time of “The Great Birthing” is getting closer. That’s what I call it: The Great Birthing. Others call it apocalypse, armageddon, or simply the end of life as we know it. Let’s call it TEOLAWKI. Tay-oh-law-kee. Okay, now when we meet we can say, “tay-oh-law-kee,” and know we’re on the same page.

What’s wrong with TEOLAWKI? Well, the biggest thing is that it looks like everyone’s entire lifetime of learning is going to be shot to hell and pretty worthless. Who wants to face that? It would be just like being born all over again: You wouldn’t know diddley about anything, and you’d have to start from scratch learning a new way to be. Dang! What a waste of a lifetime that would be!

Indeed. But is that what it really is?

Remember what I wrote the other day about everyone’s birth is the point where they lose the safest, comfiest home they will ever know? I said that we’re all always losing things that are important to us. All our lives we’re losing things of enormous importance to every human who’s ever lived. But those losses enable us to gain the greatest knowledge before we check out of planet earth.

Well, let’s think for a minute. You’ve already lost the most important things you’ll ever have in this life: safety and comfort. But aren’t safety and comfort “Life As We Know It” for neo-nates? Don’t we all move beyond the losses of our births? Don’t we all learn the skills necessary to survive without guaranteed 24/7 safety and comfort?

Sure, most of us do. Some others of us try all our lives to recreate the safety and comfort of the womb. Some of us try to stack life’s deck so that there’s never a chance of us suffering what the rest of humanity accepts as The Human Condition.

Some of us take drugs to recreate the feeling of the womb: Free floating with no responsibilities beyond one’s own comfort.

Some of us (statistics posit 3% to 7% of us) try to stack the deck, game the system, whatever you like to call it, so that we get more than everyone else. In fact, some of us game the system so that we can lie and steal our way to the pre-natal safety and comfort we’ve never grown beyond.

We call the 3-7% of humanity who never grew beyond the womb sociopaths, politicians, captains of industry, CEOs, Leaders of Nations, and other names. They set up the rules of the games they run so that they always win.

They call us sheeple or sheople, useless eaters, the masses, the great unwashed, the little people, the others.

Every human born on this planet is given the same amount of “Monopoly money” at the start of the Game of Life. As soon as you go out to the kitchen to fix everyone a snack, some member of the 3-7% joins forces with some of the other players to cheat you. When someone else leaves the game table to go to the bathroom, they make another alliance to cheat the guy with the full bladder. Eventually, through their ignoring of what you thought were the printed rules of the game, they win.

Hmm, “printed rules of the game.” Would that be something like a constitution, treaty, law or religious guidebook? Yes, those are some examples of “printed rules of the game.”

Except that life, your life, my life, their life, is not actually a game like Monopoly. The stakes aren’t play money. The stakes are human lives. While you’re fixing everyone snacks, your baby dies of vaccine side effects, your dad dies of pharmaceutical side effects, your grown child dies of war side effects. You’re crushed, your “Monopoly money” is stolen from you, and they win — again.

So what does this have to do with The Great Birthing, TEOLAWKI?

I call it The Great Birthing because we are ALL of us going experience TEOLAWKI, just like we ALL experienced leaving the safe comfortable womb, which (pay attention now) was TEOLAWKI at the time of the birth of EVERY human’s life.

TEOLAWKI is the same for every human alive. It’s the same for the homeless veteran as it is for the lobby-money-stuffed politician. No matter what any of us do before The Great Birthing, it’s going to be a brand new “game” for all of us. And no amount of “padding” is going to make our emergence — into whatever the world becomes — softer. That’s a delusion that we’ve all been sharing, sheeple and evil overlord alike.

Yes, dark days are coming. We’ve been going through some dark days, haven’t we? We’re physically exhausted, emotionally wrung out, psychically buffeted, spiritually benumbed, but we aren’t delusional enough to believe that Santa Claus is going to rescue us, are we? There is no Santa Claus. There’s no government, insurance, stocked larder, alien rescue squad or support group that can keep us from feeling the effects of TEOLAWKI.

Right now, 93 to 97% of us are having the same experience. 3 to 7% of us are having a safer and more comfortable experience. When TSHTF, we are all going to be surprised to discover that safety and comfort is removed from ALL humans. Yes, our evil overlords will lie to us and tell us THEY still hold the upper hand. But, that WILL be a lie.

You’re on the verge of a new birth to which your life of not-comfort, not-safety, not-easy, has enabled you to adjust and adapt. Those who’ve been living in a self-created delusion are going to be less equipped than you and I are to weather the lifestyle reductions they’ll face.

Some of us, Christians, Jews, Muslims and others, have read the end of the book. We know our side, the 93 to 97%, will win. The 3 to 7%, the evil overlords and their minions, will lose.

Christians, Muslims and Jews in particular are now being singled out for demonization as never before. This is to be expected because their printed rules say that peace and love and harmony are to be aspired to. People trying to live in peace, love, and harmony aren’t as easy to manipulate (rule) as self-involved people. So they’re being blamed (as they always have been) for every evil thing that evil overlords have done to rape this planet and its people for thousands of years.

Evil overlords have always “blamed” their evil actions on some group’s “gods.” And they’ve whispered into the ears of the ignorant that it was some god’s faction who perpetrated the evil. And those who believed them became their minions, doing their dirty work and justifying their own evil actions as righteous indignation against some other dude’s religion.

You have a choice. You can join the 93 to 97% of humanity that’s going to win. Or you can remain glued to the losers. But, whatever you choose, TEOLAWKI is going to happen. And the religion of wealth, earthly glory, selfish appetites, inhumanity to humans, ease and comfort for the few, and self-righteous justifications for the deaths of many is the religion that will lose.

The religion of do unto others as you would have them do unto you, the religion of 93 to 97% of humanity, the religion that needs no books, no ceremony, no “religious leaders”, is the “religion” that will win. The day you were born you had that religion’s instructions printed on your heart: Don’t hurt anybody, because it isn’t necessary in order for you to have a good life. Anyone who tells you otherwise is just using you for their own ends.
