Oct 30, 2019, 12:17 PM In Houston I have gone 5 days without electricity or EMS/Police service due to hurricanes. The first thing to go is gasoline. It was creepy to listen on my police scanner as they refused 911 calls because they didn’t have enough fuel to drive to the location. Now I fill several 5-gallon fuel cans when a hurricane approaches. Get a few of these and put them in your attic. Fill them when danger approaches… —Bill Shevick Jager

Why Is Curt Going Easy on Religion Now?
The reason I’m more accommodating lately is because my work on investigating religion, education, and government is done, it’s just a matter of updating the constitution, switching our daily discourse to advocacy of that constitution and it’s solutions. I’m sorry having your sacred cows questioned so aggressively (prosecutorally) whether theological, philosophical, sophomoric, normative, or pseudoscientific was painful – but that’s what prosecutors do: falsify everything possible so that only the truth remains. Once the truth is understood, then we can search for compromises while motioning the truth between us. This is what we all need, and it’s a condition we all prefer, but we are always trying to ‘get a better deal by hook or by crook’ and sorry – everything is a reciprocal exchange.

The Most Important Lesson from The Church Experience
The most important lesson I’ve observed, and perhaps the most important, is that sitting still in church, and the social pressure of sitting still in church, no matter how hard it is, teaches us the meaning of ‘sacred’ which is ‘we have no rights of self fulfillment’. I think it is underrated, how much the respect we demonstrate for one another in religious ceremony translates to how we ALWAYS act in the commons – and I think the loss of this ‘sacredness’ and this training in the ‘submission’ by develops ‘agency’ over impulses such that we do not impose so many costs of self expression (hyper-consumption) on the commons and therefore the polity. You do know what group did this right? What one group undermined it? I do.
