"In the past, political discourse was mostly civil. Today, things are quite different."

that life which all are given in common
The so-called common status of mankind—that life which all are given in common among men—must be stepped up to fulfill the fiat of the divine ones who govern and direct the atmosphere of spiritual progress for the planet Earth! I am well aware, as are the other members of the great cosmic councils, of the smothering lethargy which like a fog swirls about the children of men until they seem caught in an involved emotional whirlpool from which escape may seem impossible.
