this light of God that cannot fail that we ourselves are
How generous is the Heart of God! Yet how many have failed to concede this fact because they see Him only through their own eyes and through the limited aperture of their own mind. Hence they see only the limitations of those eyes and of a mind that holds a focus of limitation and never relinquishes it–no, not even for a moment. -Archeia Mary: *Pearl* 15:41 ……………….......................................................... The aperture through which men behold the frail stream of mortal life is too narrow to permit full viewing. And thus men s... read more

The IRS is Starting to Take Cryptocurrency Seriously
*Peter Suciu* *Cryptocurrency, * Cryptocurrencies will be taxed like any other capital asset. While cryptocurrency is new, it is like any other investment at the end of the day. That means if you invested in crypto and made a profit, you will have to pay taxes on those profits. Although the virtual currencies can have wild fluctuations that make tracking gains and losses all the harder, any profits will still have to be declared to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Even an "honest mistake" can result in costly penalties, according to the IRS. The IRS has been uncharacteristic... read more

The mystery of Christ-regeneration
This is not because that one is limited. Nay, it is always because from other systems and worlds there do come the antichrists who have inverted that very light and pit themselves against the plans and projects of the avatar of the age. So has it ever been with beloved Saint Germain. Therefore false-hierarchy impostors of that one, as the anti-Christ and anti-force of freedom, have yet remained in embodiment, pitted against every move toward a world congress of freedom—of which, as you very well know, the United Nations has become the perversion inasmuch as major decisions c... read more

Is China Cooperating with Russia During the Ukraine Crisis?
*Kris Osborn* *Russia-Ukraine Crisis, Russia* Russia and China issued a joint statement earlier this month, but the depth of Chinese military cooperation with Russia remains uncertain. Would Russia have China’s blessing or tacit support for an invasion of Ukraine?

Kirby offered no specifics regarding any kind of collaborative relationship between Russia and China, however, he did make a specific point to reference... read more
Joe Biden Cannot Abandon Afghanistan to Famine
*Trevor Filseth* *Taliban, Afghanistan* President Joe Biden's decision to freeze $3.5 billion in funds from Afghanistan's national bank to compensate the families of 9/11 victims is legally dubious and morally indefensible. Few Americans have kept up-to-date on the catastrophic consequences that the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan and the subsequent Taliban takeover, have caused for that country. Before the Taliban’s conquest, 80 percent of Afghanistan’s annual budget was provided by Western donors, with the lion’s share from the United States. Kabul’s foreign creditors have bee... read more

"Truckers Are Terrorists"
*"Truckers Are Terrorists"* by Jim Rickards "As you may know by now, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is invoking the nation’s “Emergencies Act” to put down the truckers’ protest, or the “Freedom Convoy.” This would be the first time the bill has entered effect since it was created in 1988. Trudeau's martial law – and that’s what it amounts to – is supposed to be "temporary." But in 1971, Nixon said the suspension of the gold standard was "temporary." Fifty-one years later we're still waiting for a new gold standard. Trudeau can’t act until Parliament approves the measure. Bu... read more

Valentines Day Vigil To Promote Aid To Afghanistan
With the UN reporting that hunger in Afghanistan could kill more civilians than the 20-year Afghanistan war, an international debate is raging over the policy by the U.S. and other governments about getting aid to that country. The president just announced a plan to confiscate $7 Billion in Afghan funds and set aside half of it for families of 9/11 victims and to create a "third-party trust fund" to pay for humanitarian aid with the other half. Critics of the decision, including those who worked for the former U.S.-backed Afghan government, lambasted Biden's decision saying that t... read more
Unions And Worker Co-Ops: Economic Justice Requires Collaboration

And it was in a 1971 speech that Arthur Kantrowitz, looking toward the technologies that would succeed chemical rockets, suggested using lasers to heat a propellant within a rocket. This is laser-thermal propulsion, in which hydrogen (the assumed propellant) is heated to produce an exhaust stream. The hybrid meth... read more

Chicago Parking Meters: Harbingers Of Neoliberal Privatization
Chicago, IL - Parking on most streets in Chicago will cost you at least $2 an hour. In some busier areas that jumps up to $4.50, and the downtown Loop area can run as high as $7. You’d be hard pressed to find pricier street parking in the United States. A 2019 study by the parking services company Parkopedia found only Miami Beach and New York City are more expensive.
