Is it the end of times?

The Prophecy of Armageddon and
Follow the Money Trail

My grief pours out in this blog. My hope again is that these thoughts might be found by archivists in the future to understand and maybe this time learn from the past.
As I begin to write this blog, it has been 51 days since a deep water oil well blew up in what we call the Gulf of Mexico in a place called the United States of America.
We have been hearing for some time about the end of the world in 2012. There have been prophecies regarding this end of times. The Hopi talk about the beginning of the 5th world. The Mayan calendar of time ends and begins its new cycle. Nostradamus predicts the end of times. The religious peoples proclaim that their God will return to strike down sinners.
I for one have never believed in a human formed God striking down supposed sinners, but I do believe in cycles and the forces or energies of these cycles. I didn't really believe in an actual end time and still don't, but with this current event, I am beginning to believe in the beginning of the fifth world and the new calendar cycle of the Mayans.
Man has set a course for some time to end the world as we know it. Power and control have been the foundation of every civilization since recorded history began. It may have been power and control over people, or item, or land. Human animals have always had the need to be superior over another for some strange reason. Some call this need animalistic as in the survival of the fittest to provide a solid genetic line. Unfortunately, the superiors are not necessisarily the fittest or have the best genetic prospects. As in the past, genetics of leaders have proven to be inferior. Past superiors have had severe mental disorders, blood diseases, and physical infirmaties. The superiors have proven not to be the most intelligent and capable leaders an animal herd requires.
Humanity also has the tendency to ascribe value to objects and give value to these objects creating a supposed wealth and forcing the value of the objects to others. “I have a stone and it is valuable. Your stone is not.” We allow this object to be valuable and then seek it out to become wealthy like the others that say it is because they have many of these objects. Once humans have acquired these objects that take power and control over other human animals because they do not have as many objects.
Since recorded history, these objects have been something as simple as shells, bones, or shelters. Soon humanity determined that glittering stones had value. Then a stone of gold or silver had value. Today the value is in electronic digits known as fiats from the ancient Romans. These electronic digits are from possession of four objects, gold, silver, gem stones, and crude oil. Death and destruction follows these objects in the human animal world. The human animal uses this value to change the environment to its standards, unlike the animal world that lives within its environment. This is is the only true difference I see between human animals and other animals that dwell on the planet called Earth.
I bring in all of the above to use as my foundation in believing we are at the end of times. At least we are at the end of times for this historical period.
While this oil continues to spew out into the Gulf of Mexico, our informational sources known as news media continues to focus on the disaster in the measures of lost values known as incomes. The shrimp fisherman have lost their incomes. The tourist industry has lost its income. The oyster fisherman have lost their income. This is costing BP a great deal in lost revenue and cleanup expenses.
The news media shows photographs of stressed birds and destroyed marshes. The media discusses clean up methods and shows government leaders, movie stars, movie directors, glim and glam people as well as sport idols on the media. The focus is always on the powerful and controllers.
This is where my sorrow deepens. The focus is on the seen and the known. The focus is on the temporary and only the surface. The news media does not even begin to comprehend the true ramifications of the end of life as we know it.
It may suit the powerful and controlling oil companies to spill enough toxic oil into the pristine blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico to make it another Dead Sea. It would be more convenient to drill for the valued oil beneath the sea if there was no life other than human life to deal with. The oil companies would not worry about human lively hood.
Herein lies my sorrows. In 1910 there was a land gusher in Oklahoma that could not be tapped. It spewed oil for over a year and created a lake several feet deep of crude oil. The company did manage to siphon out some of that oil, but looking at that place today- 100 years later – the land is still dead. There is no life, no plants, no flowers, no animals, not even insects live there. Imagine the destruction of that land gusher and 100 years later there still is no life.
The current Admiral of the Coast Guard says this spill will haunt us until this fall. Who is he kidding? Are we so blind we are not aware this Gulf gusher is going to destroy not only our Gulf for years to come, but well into the next century? Will we make the next century?
The focus of the media is on the saving of birds like the endangered brown pelican. The media is not showing the struggling sharks that are all ready over hunted in the oceans, dying in the oil slicks. The media is not showing the dolphin, great whales, porpoise, turtles, fish, tuna, and most importantly the plankton and coral reefs that are destroyed by this oil.
The plankton and coral reefs are the beginning of all life cycles on the blue marble earth. These tiny life forms provide not only oxygen, but the manna of the ocean for all marine creatures. When we break that chain or cycle of life, we destroy our own life cycle. If oceans do not provide food for marine life and oxygen used in combination to provide rain to the lands, we all die.
If the rain contains the miniscule parts of this crude oil and rains upon the lands, the rains deliver the toxic crude to our land food sources as well. Our food is poisoned and dead. Our trees will be poisoned and dead. Our wildlife on land will be destroyed. The fragile balance of life will be destroyed completely. This is the true catastrophy of this oil gusher a mile down in the ocean.
We will not merely lose jobs or incomes. We are going to lose the planet itself.
Nature will eventually recover, but will humanity survive? Nature will adjust and adapt. It is obvious that the human animal cannot adjust or adapt. Instead the human specie continues to demand that all of nature adjust to the human specie. We put the value on life and expect nature to adhere to it.
We are not stewards of the earth, we choose to be it's dictator. Unfortunately for the majority of people of the earth we can do nothing. We were born into the economic slavery conceived by the supposed superiors of the specie. We are slaves to the current economic world and have no way to escape to freedom from it. We are economically chained, beaten, and whipped until the supposed superiors allow us to die where we can finally escape. Yet our children and grandchildren are enslaved bought and sold by marketed things putting them deeper and deeper into the chains of economic slavery.
My conclusion is the vision of the destruction of life on this earth as we know it and that reality of current life as we know it, is created by the values of supposed superiors directing our quality of life as they see fit.
This is the destruction of earth and to find out how it happened, just follow the money trail, or the trail of the current human specie superiors and their values.
