    The masterwork of our masterful Founders is the greatest temporal engine of human progress that the world has ever known.

    Something such as ought to be self evident, to everyone.

     -- DENNIS KOLB, WARRENTON      
    Master builders are required. Scary, if not, it should be. The "pause" ( Paul ), in time, transitions through requirements, led by experience. America, Opportunity, Divine Providence, Mankind. A four fold cord. 4, the number of creation. Unity of the faith, unity of the knowledge of God, required, in this forth dispensation. The "dispensation of the fullness of times." many would speak of dispensational truth, but, in Reality there are only four. Four is the manifold position. It is he who works through the individual that makes their face to shine. Who would be of A right mind and speak of the "philosophers stone"? What is it likened to ? and to what degree is it discussed in private. Display the tools and make known to the people of where they come. This should be self evident, if not for the veil. the mystery of 3.

    There is A Holy seed, when adult, puts forth its fruit, and its leaves when cast are for healing. the Holy seed is the substance thereof. " I see men as trees walking." Back to the trees in the garden where king David worshiped. of course he is the apple of the Lords eye. Now speak of the temple of the Lord and where he is found to dwell. this a perpetual sign never to be taken away.

    The second sentence of this quote pretty much sums up the election of Donald Trump.

    It only seems like that last effort because it has been OUR last effort. Maintaining one's Liberty is an active duty. Either write your own narrative or somebody will write one for you.

    It is not wise to localize in the behalf of our opportunities, capabilities, or potentialities. We must take into consideration all efforts and assure the appropriate credibility of all of our species' community contributions.  There's opportunity everywhere and all the more accessible on the globalized scale. Not Americanization, Globalization.

    Sillik, though your religious dogma won't admit the falseness of its reality, it can neither touch or rely on a foundation of nature's law or science for its support. Your religion's dogma must float in an empty ethos of circular word salad.

    Mike, Norwalk, science says if it's life or facilitates life, it grows. Logic naturally tells us that the territorial geography will become more assimilated as the human species grows more and more cohesive and adherent in its development.  Less and less division will become more apparent as we assimilate. Life will become more secure as we appreciate assimilated connections.

    Sillik, hahaha / lololol — is that Mr., Mrs., or Mz science that says that to you? Did that same science say the opposite is as accurate as your circular word salad? By example: the more the religion of socialism uses deadly force and religious rhetoric it grows (anti-life & does not facilitate life).

    What / which "logic" is that which naturally tells us? I say hmmm. It, they, etc. may be whispering in your ear BUT, that formal guiding dogma of your religious discipline; OR, your mode of religious reasoning is no logic; it does NOT speak to sane and mature adults, as they would / could not recognize such.

    Your circular word salad, filtered through your religious propaganda is not science, logic or within nature's law.
