The Road to Life

Edward E. Rochon

4.9/5 (13773 ratings)

Description:Two paths to wisdom compared. The seer with crystal ball and the soldier who drills. One tries to divine the future; one tries to see clearly what is immediately before him. One accumulates knowledge as a focus; one eliminates error as a focus. The soldier has the better way. The seer competes with God. The crystal ball can lie; but the truth lies before us. Some comments on Georgia Guidestones.A preface introduces the subject of the two paths to sagacity. It notes the erection of the Georgia Guidestones and takes a dim view of them. Chapter 1 notes the problems of trying to foresee the future whether through science or intuition. It also points out the advantages of knowing the future. The nature of the thing tends toward determinist and totalitarian views of life, these being necessary to fix the future. The seer strives to make the future happen through manipulation. Failing that, he hides behind obscurity: heads I'm right; tails I'm right. It then points out that the soldier's way of perceiving what is before him, carrying over only what he needs to survive, to carry the field of battle as it were, is a better way. When he is convinced of an oracle from God, he follows it as orders from a commander on faith. I note that the Hebrew prophets were not happy in the role of prophet for the most part. Chapter 2 sees the Georgia Guidestones as an attempt to predict and control the future. It takes a dim view of the 10 guidelines on the monument and critiques them. Chapter 3 provides some commentary on the preceding chapter, and why the author holds these views.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
