About the only absolute conclusion that I have reached, is that in my present manifestation I am capable of understanding only an infinitesimal fraction of the knowledge of the universe. This realization precludes any ability on my part to blindly accept as truth the philosophy of any mortal, or to have faith in any such philosophy regardless of whether it is presented as an interpretation of recorded wisdom, or not. Thus, incapable of faith in any religion or political party organized by men, I remain unimpressed even when vast numbers of people choose to embrace such faiths. Note well though, that I do not deny a Creator, the need for organized governments, or that momentous changes in our world are indeed imminent.

         In recent years, I have come to realize that my mind never closes any file of information it contains on any given subject. I am always open and receptive to new information, facts and knowledge on all things, and thus any and all conclusions or answers that I have drawn regarding such matters are also continuously changing. At this same time, I have now realized that portions of my mind have been actively seeking, sorting and storing vast amounts of knowledge and information on some subjects upon which, consciously or unconsciously, I have only begun to seek answers and conclusions.

         My physical and mental health has, within the past couple of years, deteriorated to the point that I am no longer able to pursue my chosen profession, or any other productive pursuit that I can find. Now, my mind appears to have closed the door to those systems of mental function that served me so well in my profession and almost all other worldly interrelationships with others. Devoid of any significant personal involvement in the world around me, I am forced to painfully consider the challenge of answering those questions that have always lain hidden within my subconscious mind. This search was not initiated by the conscious me, but rose from some other entity over which I have no control.

         Over the past several years, and for reasons unknown to me, I have written down a number of these thoughts and feelings on the situations we face in the world today. Although these were certainly initiated within me, many yet defy my comprehension. Either I am really crazy, or some part of me is aware of things that my conscious mind is not. If depression is anger turned inward, might insanity merely be the result of one's inability to escape a modicum of understanding of the truth of our futile human existence.

         I share the preceding with you only to establish the foundation for what I am about to say, and because that which you will read, should you choose to continue, has little basis in, or support by, today's common knowledge and so called conventional wisdom. It is for you to decide whether these words are the mumbling of a fool, the exposure of some few tattered shreds of real truth, or perhaps more likely a combination of both.

         As a curious child of the 1950's, I was filled with a sense of being surrounded by an ever expanding, benevolent world of blossoming technology and science. I was assured that I would grow up into an expanding economy, thriving on exponentially increasing productivity and advancements benefiting all mankind. My generation would be the one to finally break loose from the shackles of terra firma, and expand the knowledge of humankind throughout the universe, piloting powerful ships of steel and dreams.

         Although the 1960's began with an extension of this truly progressive philosophy, by the middle of that decade it had begun to wilt and die. Immersed in the second of two wars that were instead called conflicts, our government began to change the definitions of other words. In their Great Society, charity was renamed investment by Lyndon B. Johnson and the Democrats. By the mid-1970's inflation had been cloaked as a phenomenon of the economy rather than the tax that it is, and even today few people know that the Federal Reserve Banks, and their Board, are not owned or controlled by a government of the people.

         Only in the past decade have I come to understand that the government of the United States of America is literally bankrupt in every respect. Like so many of its citizens without any savings, it pays its self imposed obligations with taxes on each one of its citizens paychecks, one to the next, while borrowing still more from those of future generations of Americans. Even in the midst of this frightening economic situation, the congress has passed laws that continually shift more and more industry and jobs to foreign shores. In horror have I now come to clearly see the impending, imminent social and economic disaster; even as I observe that the great American News Media has said not a word to the people about this dire dilemma.

         Now physically and mentally infirm and exhausted, I can sustain almost no physical activity. Much of the time my brain seems to ramble on its own through the mental maze of facts and ideas stored there. Its considerations are often beyond my control and I find myself able to do little more than postpone its self-appointed field trips through my mind. I fear that I know too much now, and hope that I am only crazy.

         As the words of Nostradamus, Daniel and Revelations ever more loudly echo within my head, I begin to fear what the end of the Second Millennium may signal for mankind. Seeking wisdom from the prophets of our time, I have found only dogmatists and the self appointed who neither fully comprehend the frail language used to convey past, rare glimpses of truth and wisdom, nor the realities of our contemporary world.

         It seems that religious leaders of today who speak of, and try to understand the words of the True Prophets seem unable to do so. Mistakenly, they see too many names and words in parables to be actual and particular people, places or events contemporary to the writings. If their predictions be indeed valid, they must address not only the peoples and lands of the Middle East and Europe of thousands of years ago, but those of all nations, peoples and lands of the world of our time!

         I know that my days in this world are now numbered, and wish that I had somehow been able to see these things when I was younger and still strong, with some years ahead of me. Perhaps I might have been able to decipher some few words of the ancients, and apply their wisdom to the problems of our time. Why I should contemplate such things I do not know, yet the ideas are there. Perhaps understanding more of what has really happened and what is now happening in our world might better prepare us to face the impending Apocalypse?

         I am very tired now, and both the functioning of my mind and my strength to write down my thoughts are diminishing. There is no doubt in what remains of this mind, however, that the attached pages contain much truth that has remained hidden from the vast majority of the people. From this time forward, with each passing day, you will be able to see these things manifested before you. For whatever it may be worth I leave it to the people.

         I have to chuckle as it occurs to me, that because I have charged them nothing for it they will probably ignore it, considering it thereby worthless. Such is the fate of much real wisdom, on a small, blue planet where wealth is all too often measured in dollars, ... by fools.
