    Invasion

    Is the Trojan Horse already inside the gates? Is the enemy somewhere out there... or already deep inside?

    Inspired by King Crimson.

    We are all born with an innate sense of right and wrong. This is how we are designed. It is a part of the invisible umbilical cord that connects us to our maker. As we mature, we are exposed to the trappings of the world around us, and there is great competition for our attention. We are mortals and don't always follow our inner compass.

    Rest assured, we are not alone. I believe there is so much more in existence than what we perceive. It is understood that only about 10% of the light spectrum is visible to the naked eye. What exists in the other 90% that we can't see? The limitations of our brains don't automatically make "the unseen" portion an "empty set"? No, Sir! or Ma'am! I don't see a War of the Worlds in our imminent forecast, but we certainly have our hands full now with the issues of the one world we were given custody of.

    Technology is increasing at an exponential rate. The Universe is expanding, but all matter has existed since it was created. The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only change form or be transferred from one object to another. Your soul, i.e., the energy that entered your body at birth, will one day exit your physical body. Where does that energy go?

    Earth's movement through space is mind-boggling. It rotates on its axis at about 1,000 mph, orbits the Sun at 67,000 mph, and the solar system orbits the Milky Way's center at 514,500 mph. Yet, we sit at the kitchen table and neatly sip our coffee in the morning. How do we quantify any of this? So, with all that in mind, how big is God? Do you get my point? The human toolbox is so much smaller than we pretend, unless we only measure it from a human perspective. Better check your oil. There is so much more ahead!

    Lyrics

    Above all, you must understand that in the last days, scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, “Where is this 'coming' He promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on... as it has... since the beginning of time.

    2 Peter 3: 3-4

    Welcome!  

    A good pair of headphones is recommended for the full spatial experience.   Bring 'em if got ’em!
