Pantisocracy

I ran across an article in Wikipedia

(I have printed an excerpt on the

other side of this sheet) which may

well describe some first impressions

about democracy.

I have recently begun to think of

God as the Great Spirit because this

seems to better describe intangible

notions of a spirit which pervades

the cosmos. Most dictionaries seem

to give God a resemblance to a

super man who is a person who has

incredible power but also possesses

human characteristics. My concept

of God has always been on a much

higher plane than this.

I have always accepted the usual

reported philosophy of Jesus as the

true meaning of brotherly love. As i

have become more spiritual than

religious, i have become outspoken

in my poems about this distinction.

For this reason i have even been

thought of as an atheist by some

people. My reverence for God is more

like love than worship. The rituals

and creeds of many churches has

seemed to lower the worship to a

resemblance of sycophants.

I believe there were isolated pre-

colombian tribes in America who

practiced a form of pantisocracy and

they thought of the Great Spirit as a

symbol for the existence of a cosmic

consciousness toward which all of us

aspire. This consciousness includes

all of us as parts of a larger reality. In

this way no one owned the land.

It was a part of nature. The natural

laws were eternal concepts which

our Great Spirit evolved and each

individual was a small part of this

larger spirit.

The Utopian society which the

poets Samuel Coleridge and Southy

envisioned never got started. The

idea of no personal possessions was

unacceptable to most people who

lived in their time in England. They

could not agree on a location and

Taylor fell in love with a woman

and they had a happy family life.

Current societies, who have long

accepted selfishness as a virtue, have

become so ingrained that the idea

of real brotherly love appears weird

to the majority. However, there are

weirdoes like me, who believe it is

inevitable. I think the idea of this

brotherly love is growing.

The idea of eternity

has very great appeal to me.

Jesus said “The kingdom is now”

and proceeded to tell us how.

I see people getting better

and i love them all forever.

I wrote all of this with the

figure One key stuck.
