There is a noetic element in man, but you have to stop the clock for it. Deviancy is becoming normal. Schizophrenia and possession. Psychiatrist. “We have a drug for every thought.” Psychiatrist who advocated swingers club. State control of families. Youth suicides. High taxes and bureaucrats. We pro-rate expenses but we don’t charge for truth. The “I Am” cult (note, founder is Guy Ballard, not Robert Ballard - misspeak). Return to Cleveland from Seattle, people were like zombies. Went back to WV and wrote Three Books of the Absolute. “You die with honesty, expecting oblivion, but I was surprised that I didn’t die.”
