Indeed, something greater than me is in control of my life.
I’ve learned the hard way the change I needed in my life. I’m one of those down to earth people who sees the way to cross the threshold to our future—to the human we were meant to be—less the animals we are now, still living by the law of the jungle. Just yesterday, more than a hundred people were killed in Pakistan by a car bomb. Most were women and children. This power to intimidate and frighten people into submission has been going on ever since Abraham’s one God came into existence, and long before.
Jews, Arabs, and Christians have been fighting holy wars to determine whose God is the real God for 5,000 years. It goes back to the time before man became a moral creature, with a sense of right and wrong. My life is representative of what it takes to cross the threshold into a world wherein there are no coercive efforts to turn the masses into behavioral animals jumping through the hoops of the powers that be.
In 1973, my 25 year lumber career and my second marriage were both on the rocks. My life had been like trying to climb a greased pole. I’d done all I could. I was playing the blame game. I went to the county law library to study the law, with the idea of suing the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. One of the powers that be, American tycoon banker J. Pierpont Morgan, said to be America’s greatest banker, can be credited with today’s federal income tax and the Federal Reserve System, both currently being employed by the powers that be to implement the carrot and stick approach; you get a treat if you obey. Now billionaire Wall Street investor George Soros, the reincarnation of banker Morgan, with his billions of dollars, he controls American politics, brings to our attention Obama’s Marxist approach, the international terrorist approach, the authoritarian approach no matter what it is called. It is the dominant of the species taking charge of the herd.
We were not created to be behavioral creatures. The authoritarian approach has never worked and never will, yet people have been allowing the dominant of the species to lead them since times immemorial. While studying the law, I got the feeling that voices of the past were speaking to me. My time in the county law library resulted in a bigger than life calling—bigger than my personal grudge against federal income tax.
In the spring of 1975, I cut from the herd. Jesus did the same. To my second wife, I was deserting my responsibility to our son. Jesus said, “let the dead bury the dead.” There was a bitter divorce trial. The court gave me what remained of my 30 acre spread, the note on the 15 acres I sold, and all the improvements, including my home, barn, equipment, and other improvements. The court gave my ex wife the furniture, one of our two cars, and 30 days to get off of my property.
The dumbed down masses don’t see cutting from the herd as a proper thing to do. The sympathy on my wife’s side. It caused her to try to grab everything and leave me with nothing. She asked the divorce court to repudiate our property settlement agreement, which had given her the lion’s share of everything. My ex wife made a great mistake in attempting to grab it all. The court allowed her to repudiate our property settlement agreement so it could give me all that the law allowed. Texas law said that since I owned the land prior to our marriage, the land and all the improvements were mine.
My ex wife’s ace in the hole was custody of our son. For his sake, I agreed to the original property settlement agreement. I didn’t have to. My decision came from within. By turning loose of my failed life,and freed from guilt, free to do my thing, I bought a live-aboard sloop and set sail on the South Atlantic Ocean. My plan was to live on a boat for a couple of years and then seek to build a new life from scratch.
At sea, I had no one to blame but myself if things went wrong, when things could have very well have gone wrong. Everything went right. I went to the law library and felt that voices of the past were speaking to me. It was a bigger than life calling. I departed my life at sea captain of my ship, reborn the person I was meant to be, and all on my own—without asking God to forgive me for my sins.
This person I was meant to be, in early May 1980 met Karen. I knew from the moment we met that she was made for me. How did I know? It came from internal control, my God/self. Through thick and thin, there has never been a doubt that we were made for each other. We’ve just celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary.
Internal control is a marvelous asset. I’d always dreamed of retiring in the mountains. In March, 2008, we moved into our dream home in the tall timber 30 miles east of Mount Hood. If life could be any better, I don’t know how. I can only speak from experience, but it seems to me that knowing both good and evil is the only way to learn how to live the good life. And, after all, is that not what distinguishes humans from animals?
In the Garden of Eden, there was a tree of knowledge of good and evil. God forbid Adam and Eve from eating the fruit of that tree. My father told me that God gave Adam everything he needed. Isn’t that what the welfare state does? Adam and Eve disobeyed God. Adam was made to till the land for his livelihood. Isn’t that what you do in a free market economy? Was I born in sin because the first man disobeyed God? Is the only way to God’s grace to confess my sins and beg forgiveness?
I can’t tell you exactly why my reality is the best it can be, but it is. I can tell you this: In the county law library I learned that in the law there is such a thing as circumstantial evidence—testimony not based on actual personal knowledge or observation of the facts but from other facts from which deductions can be drawn, and from which juries may infer, to reasonably follow according to common experience. And so from common experience the facts speak for themselves. I’m not born in sin. I’m born with reason and logic.
Being born with reason and logic, I’ve learned that, although nature keeps certain secrets, the facts speak for themselves: the cutting edge of science has discovered a nonlocal force in the universe I believe must be involved with my internal control.
Quantum physics bears me out. Animals live by instinct. The physical domain is governed by immutable laws, but these laws leave open a range of happenings that are left to the selection of the mind. Quantum physicist Evan Harris Walker has found in quantum theory that “we exist as more than pieces of matter.” Says quantum physicist Walker in The Physics of Consciousness. “The observer emerges as a co-equal in the foundry of creation… Tests of Bell’s theorem have shown us that objective reality as it has been conceived is not the true fabric of reality… It is the quantum mind that is the basic reality.” Thus, with a mind of my own, subjectively, I created a new and far better life. I see no difference in what Jesus taught and what I learned on my own, without the help or advice of anyone. Quantum physicist Walker is accused by the authorities of trying to smuggle God into physics.
Speaking of America’s judges, political justice is part natural, part legal. Hitler was legal. The principal distinction in lawful and legal, I learned in the country law library, was that lawful contemplates the substance of the law, legal the form of law. Federal income tax is legal; it is not lawful. I won my case, not in the courts, but by going to the media with my cause. This nobody from nowheresville caused the media to investigate my claim. It was the power within me working, something the powers that be could not have imagined. The IRS admitted in the Palm Beach Post that for 11 years it had been “mistaken” in the money it confiscated from me. The IRS apologized and gave all my money back with interest.
No, it is not the luck of the Irish. It is not the dogmas and doctrines of religions. It is not a caring government. It’s all manmade malarkey. America is now being led by self-serving con artists and control freaks. We are living in a time when triumph has turned into frustration. What’s the way out?
The Higher Law, the background of the U.S. Constitution, at the core of America’s tradition, is the belief in constitutional government. There is no conflict in democracy and the original intent of America’s Constitution. The latter is nothing more nor less than a guarantee that the former will be carried out through safe, sober, predictable methods. Look what the law has done for me. It is nothing short of miraculous what the law can do for you.
