ImageYou ask how can the dead bury the dead and how would you know when you are in the hands of the undertakers? There are 10 or more simple answers that will be never seen by those who wish not to but are evident to any and all who chooses truth and wisdom.

These include:

1. When physical death and mental disorder plagues both young and old with too many dying too soon: From Leaders to ordinary parents burying their children.

2. When it becomes impossible to control skyrocketing cost of living as; food, travel, taxes, health, education, love and basic needs become unaffordable.

3. When Governments increase personal and property taxes, import duty, fees and unnecessary fines, surcharges and the cost of public ptilities and supplies.

4. When local companies fail under the pressure as good men and women lose their jobs, properties, businesses, families and traditional livelihood.

5. Good men and women become treated like criminals; forced into crime and prison with too many finding  it easier living in prison than living free.

6. When banks and insurance companies steal you money and  deny your claims forcing you to seek equity by any means necessary, even tricks and fraud.

7. When national health and education suffer as hospitals and schools become unable to afford equipment,supplies, maintenance and staff.

8. When clubs promising earthly pleasure and churches promising heavenly rewards are located on the same block and even share the same membership.

9. When the rich get richer and the poor poorer so that even as you ask friends and family for assistance they to are reduced to begging you for help.

10. Finally, when the more you suffer at the hands of reality the more you cling to the mosom of denial until justice is dead and wrong is seen as right.

Should you experience none of these signs you are not among the living dead but if you are familiar with three or more of these 10 signs there should be no doubt that you are socially dead and deep in the hands of the undertakers.

The problems come because too often we ask for what we don’t need and wish for what we don’t want and that is exactly why we should be careful what we pray for incase our prayers are answered and August 20th they were; our country died leaving us in hands of undertakers.

Today because of increases in crime, taxes, fees, high costs of travel, food, gas and utilities, along with a fantasy budget that will chain the children’s future to a casket, some are beginning to buckle and break to the point of even longing for the voice of the people.

It is amusing to hear you say, if I would speak out bad things won’t happen and the pain would stop, but while that may be true I am no preacher with direct message from Christ, Mohammed, Buddha or man-made Gods but a common message for all from all.

Simply put, this is no mission to teach you how to die but teach you how to live and let live.

A mission founded on the wisdom of solomon, teachings of christ, and reality of today and while I respect and appreciate those who continue to ask not to rule out the elderly for they too can learn, it’s really not up to me but you, yourself.

I’ve already seen there, been there; run that and done that.

From days of slavery to days of now, we have accepted so much wrong along with the doctrine of suicide with the belief that pain only stops when you are dead.

With such mentality the possibility of change is more and more impossible with age which explains why we support institutions that make sure we remain unchanged.

I to am over 40 years and have been indoctrinated and programmed to accept lies and misinformation because oppressors have always known this is exactly what makes us such good slaves and even some who claim to support me like to say let’s wait to see what happens even when they know what is going to happen before it happens.

The question then becomes whether they really believe the message or like others are more interested in seeing which fool they can call winner so they can have another jackass to ride and that is why I make it clear I owe you nothing and you owe me nothing. No matter what we chose to believe facts will remain facts.

Truth for the youth is simply supplying needed information and knowledge so as to provide opportunity for children to save themselves even after parents have lost their voice. However, they must use their own brain to arrive at their conclusion for I will in no way try to force them. The choice is all theirs, wisdom or folly.

They must realize that Just as we learn wisdom so do we learn folly and real wisdom will always know that win or lose right is right and wrong is wrong. Just as there can be no growth without change an  uncorrected today brings a corrupted tomorrow and we are each individual beings but throughout life there are three major  institutions that make us what and who we are: The church, the school and parents and while each of these have specific roles to play, the end results depend on how these balance and interact within the system.

While there are no sharp separations, parents remain biologically responsibility, schools socially responsible and Churches morally responsible for development of the youth.

While Parents can only teach within the limitation of their knowledge even as schools claim to teach us how to lead while Churches insist that we learn to follow two contradictions.

As much as we loved our parents and they loved and taught us all they knew,  many died believing the world is only 2000 years old, the earth is flat, the moon is cheese, being good means turning the other cheek and suffering in silence, if you were Black you were nobody for  God’s will was for Africans to be slaves and of course Lucifer is ‘Black Satan’.

Today many of you know that while these lessons were wrong, that did not make our parents bad.  I actually loved them more because they took the little they had to gave us a start at what our futures would become. They inspired the ability to learn and change.

They did as much as they could but that was then and this is now. Today it is our turn to ask ourselves; What will we teach our children? Fact or fiction?

For those choosing to play the game of silence while allowing others to deceive our children, do you not see this as equivalent to giving them serpents instead of fish?

Too many like to say let’s cover up the bad and fabricate good news as they try to spin the message of Jesus and love of God into their own personal property. Devils acting as if they are keepers of Heaven and more righteous than God as they teach children, suffer in silence, live in denial, avoid truth and reality as they see suicide as a means of escape.

Hello out ther. Is your radio still on? Leave it. Let it play. Don’t touch the knob. Sometimes truth may be too hot to handle but let the word be heard.

You need to understand what you are doing to the youth and where our children are finding their inferiority complex, revolting and populating prisons and grave yards.

You need to recognize the truth and stop blaming ordinary fathers and mothers for wrongs of the children when in truth and fact, it is the leaders to blame.

If we will just forget the social workers and psychologists and think for ourselves it become clear parents spend less learning time with children than school and church.

Just think about it. From time the child is knee high to a grasshopper they’re sent to day care, primary school, high school, college or off-island boarding schools.

An average minimal time from home-school-home would be 40 hours a week even before adding weekend Sabbath, Sunday School and now of course Funerals.

Furthermore this misrepresentation of reality is worsened by bad politics as we conveniently forget that the typical middle class parent must now work two or three jobs just to survive.

If you really think about is it  how much real time do they have to influence the child and is it really so hard to see why good kids turn Bad?

Maybe we just didn’t think about it.  Some Fool said it and we learnt the folly.

It should be evident that as long as adults accept the Doctrine of suicide they will continue to frighten the children to death about life while promising them life after death.

No wonder our children enter and leave the world in a state of perplexity and depression as from cradle to grave theirs is a fight just to maintain their sanity.

What makes it worse is due to bad leadership persons die more and more and the more they die the more Churches grow. Not members; just Church buildings…

No wonder there are more Churches than schools to the point where every Church tries to have their own school so they can reach you to preach you, to teach you.

Unfortunately with all the dearly departed there is no better breeding ground for frightening our children to death about Life than at funerals.

These have become the place to trivialize life and drive our youth to suicide.

Just take a look at the World. From the Middle East to America, many appear to believe that there is only relief from pain, oppression and rejection by riding suicide to the other side; oft times taking others with them. Their joy is to destroy.

It matters not whether it is on the battle field, in Schools, Churches or homes.

When all is done, for seven days we weep, mourn and tell God who did and who did not deserve to die. We miss the big picture on who’s to blame and reasons why.

We are to blame as because of our own action we have become our children’s enemy.

We need to change our ways and truly become the best friend of our children’s tomorrow.

In this way parents, schools, churches and the general public could operate more efficiently with their scope of responsibilities.

Death is too long and life is too short to be wasted. Parents, teachers and preachers I am on your side for as long as you will provide Truth for the Youth but time is running out and we must do it soon for as mere mortals we to shall pass.

Parents really love your children, teachers provide them with real knowledge and preachers tell them about real life and not just fantasy.

We can all begin by letting funerals become opportunity to stress the importance of life before death instead of promising them life after death for sooner or later they will find out the lies and alibis, malice, empty promises, the honours and eulogies given at our funerals and burials shall all pass. Truth and only truth, the Word of God, shall last forever.

Preachers, teachers and parents we all have a responsibility. Let’s not blow it.

Even as we wish you a wonderful Father’s Day, thank yourself for listening.

The Message has been delivered but only you can decide to spread the word.

No matter what tomorrow brings, God will always be better than good.
