" "Emperor Constantine, a convert to Christianity, had the pagan burial grounds covered up in the 4th century so the basilica could be built over the site holding St. Peter’s tomb. The Valeri tomb, made up of several rooms, is several hundred feet from the burial place of the Apostle Peter, venerated by Catholics as the first pope. Peter was martyred in Rome in the area near the Vatican known as Nero’s Circus during the first century persecution of Christians by the Romans. " " The mausoleum is considered a particularly fine example of the stucco work popular from that era, as well as for the bas reliefs and statues that adorn the tombs. The tomb tells the history of the family, particularly in bas reliefs, of a girl and a boy from the Caius Valerius Herma family. The children died young, possibly from plague. Such stuccoed objects as a quill pen and a skein of yarn tell the tale of daily life in the Valeri family. Reliefs of major gods and other pagan figures attest to their strong religious belief.

But when Dow included the assumption that non-believers would be attracted to religious people because of some clear, but arbitrary, signal, religion flourished.

Sosis previously found that in some populations – kibbutzim in Israel, for instance – more religious people receive more assistance from others than the less faithful. But he notes that the forces that maintain religion in modern humans could be very different from those that promoted its emergence, thousands of years ago. Palaeolithic humans were probably far more reliant than modern humans on the community they were born into, Sosis says.

In essence, he conflates the wholesale transformation of the species with "immortality," for which read a repeal of human limit. In less capable hands, this phantasmagoria of speculative extrapolation, which incorporates a bewildering variety of charts, quotations, playful Socratic dialogues and sidebars, would be easier to dismiss. But Kurzweil is a true scientist—a large-minded one at that—and gives due space both to "the panoply of existential risks" as he sees them and the many presumed lines of attack others might bring to bear. What's arresting isn't the degree to which Kurzweil's heady and bracing vision fails to convince—given the scope of his projections, that's inevitable—but the degree to which it seems downright plausible.

" " Roosevelt's nauseating flattery of Stalin is easily matched by Churchill's. Just like Roosevelt, Churchill heaped fulsome praise on the Communist murderer, and was anxious for Stalin's personal friendship. " " Churchill's benign view of Stalin and Russia contrasts sharply with his view of Germany. Behind Hitler, Churchill discerned the old specter of Prussianism, which had caused, allegedly, not only the two world wars, but the Franco Prussian War as well. What he was battling now was "Nazi tyranny and Prussian militarism," the "two main elements in German life which must be absolutely destroyed." " " With the attack on the French fleet, Churchill confirmed his position as the prime subverter through two world wars of the system of rules of warfare that had evolved in the West over centuries. " " Churchill claimed that only military and industrial installations were targeted. In fact, the aim was to kill as many civilians as possible thus, "area" bombing, or "carpet" bombing and in this way to break the morale of the Germans and terrorize them into surrendering. " " Solzhenitsyn wrote, of Winston Churchill: He turned over to the Soviet command the Cossack corps of 90,000 men. Along with them he also handed over many wagonloads of old people, women, and children. . . . " " The "purge" of alleged collaborators in France was a blood-bath that claimed more victims than the Reign of Terror in the Great Revolution and not just among those who in one way or other had aided the Germans: included were any right-wingers the Communist resistance groups wished to liquidate. The massacres carried out by Churchill's protégé, Tito, must be added to this list: tens of thousands of Croats, not simply the Ustasha, but any "class-enemies," in classical Communist style. There was also the murder of some 20,000 Slovene anti-Communist fighters by Tito and his killing squads. When Tito's Partisans rampaged in Trieste, which he was attempting to grab in 1945, additional thousands of Italian anti-Communists were massacred. " " Having destroyed Germany as the natural balance to Russia on the continent, he was now forced to try to embroil the United States in yet another war, this time a Cold War, that would last 45 years, and change America fundamentally, and perhaps irrevocably.

I have actually very simple question: Could the human nature be studied by systematic research into "religion" and related areas of human brain? Have those areas stared from the very beginning of brains? Are they most developed compared to other areas, and compared to other species, in human brains? And then, could those understandings contribute significantly to the solution of our serious contemporary problems? Your insights would be highly appreciated. Tsai Sheh-gni http://bbcwebb.blogspot.com --------------------------- [Tsai 08.5.18 #1] Beyond history and philosophy, science I think should be fully utilized to get to the human nature, so that the current serious human problems could be dealt with fundamentally. So we need brain studies. Beyond individual survival, group survival is essential to the former. By controlling others? Highly problematic, I think. Rational behavior, has to be grounded on natural human nature, to be effective, it seems. Blind obedience and single-mindedness and deadly seriousness in some religious endeavours, could be overcome by "the nerual Buddhism"? Original:------------------------ [Tsai 08.5.17=6 #1] Reply to Daily Digest gets blank epost with only "To" given. We humans evolved from the emergence of life with memory for survival, but with the emergence of "superpower" over all other lives. What is the latter? The basic human nature perhaps was born from there. It was not just the most powerful, like lions. It has something to do with organizing groups, but beyond ants or bees groups. It is accumulative beyond individuals group memory for survival AND for control over all others. Is the "religion" its instrument? Is the "religion" regions of the brain, connected with all other similar experience, for example the effects of certain drugs and of all other similarly effective functions and materials?

This week in The Neural Buddhists he declares, "Just as 'The Origin of Species' reshaped social thinking, just as Einstein’s theory of relativity affected art, so the revolution in neuroscience is having an effect on how people see the world. He goes on, "This new wave of research will not seep into the public realm in the form of militant atheism. Instead it will lead to what you might call neural Buddhism." The implications of which he suggest will be the following. "First, the self is not a fixed entity but a dynamic process of relationships. Second, underneath the patina of different religions, people around the world have common moral intuitions. Third, people are equipped to experience the sacred, to have moments of elevated experience when they transcend boundaries and overflow with love. Fourth, God can best be conceived as the nature one experiences at those moments, the unknowable total of all there is." And he so aptly ends with, "We’re in the middle of a scientific revolution. It’s going to have big cultural effects."

(七)520活動規劃: 1、活動日期:2008年5月20日(星期二)。 2、集合時間:下午1點30分。 3、活動時間:下午2點至4點。 4、集合地點:台北市大安森林公園露天音樂台區。 5、遊行路線:大安森林公園集會→沿新生南路左轉→仁愛路左轉→金山南路右轉→愛國東路→台灣民主紀念館大孝門前解散。 (八)活動照片: ◎ 一群主張「台灣獨立建國」的本土社團代表於5月2日決議:選定5月20日下午2點,在台北市大安森林公園召開「台灣民眾大會」。 ◎ 「台灣民眾大會」由台灣教授協會會長蔡丁貴教授(左)擔任總指揮,右為副會長劉聰德教授。 ◎ 5月3日(星期六)台灣教授協會執委會中確認520召開「台灣民眾大會」,由左至右: 李欣芬(副秘書長,擔任記錄)、陳彥升(科技組執委)、許文輔(科技組執委)、廖宜恩(中區執委)、謝志誠(秘書長)、蔡丁貴(會長,擔任主席)、劉聰德(副會長)、潘振輝(副秘書長)、張信堂(北區執委)、薛化元(人文組執委)。 ◎這是籌備記者會在台大校友會館1樓的看板。 ◎籌備記者會,由左至右:劉重義(即劉聰德,台教會副會長)、蔡丁貴(台教會會長)、周福南(台灣北社副社長)、王獻極(九O八台灣國運動總召)。 ◎ 由左至右,前排:楊東傑醫師、辜寬敏先生、黃崑虎先生; 後排:劉重義副會長、蔡丁貴會長、王獻極總召、周福南副社長。 ◎陳師孟教授(前左)。 ◎名政論家金恆煒先生(前右)。 ◎蔡丁貴會長接受民視記者訪問。 ◎台灣玉山網路電視台的執行長魚夫先生(左)及其太太(右)。 ◎王獻極總召(前)接受台灣玉山網路電視台的專訪。 ◎蔡丁貴會長(左)接受台灣玉山網路電視台的專訪,右為執行長魚夫先生。 由左至右:敏紅小姐(史明先生助理)、劉重義副會長、蔡丁貴會長、周福南副社長、王獻極總召、楊東傑醫師。 ─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─ ※ 後記: 520 就要到了,那個既無能力又無擔當,並且善變膚淺的馬英九就要成為台灣總統了,我們是有骨氣尊嚴並有民主素養的台灣人民,所以我們不會到總統府前去鬧馬英九的就職大典,但我們要在520這個特別的日子裏,在大安森林公園升自己的國旗、唱自己的國歌,亦即向國際社會宣示:我們「要做台灣主人,不做中國奴隸」!最後並遊行至台灣民主紀念館,希望大家能踴躍參加520的「台灣民眾大會」。 最後,我仍要說:建國尚未成功,同志仍須努力,期盼大家的相挺………… ─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─•─ 台灣教授協會(TAUP)副秘書長:李欣芬拍攝整理 2008/5/13 Posted by bbcweb at 6:04 PM 0 comments Links to this post Sunday, March 30, 2008 #67: US!

USA」案的理由 筆者於二零零六年十月二十四日,以「Civil Action No. 06-1825(RMC)」案,向華盛頓聯邦法院控告美國政府:「美日太平洋戰爭時,戰敗台灣後,未依照美國憲法規定,給予臺灣人旅行證件(美國國民護照)」。本案經十三次雙方文書攻防,美國國務院兩次以「事渋管轄與政治問題為由」,要求法院不要受理,但經法院「兩次駁回請求」;二零零八年三月十八日,美國聯邦法院法官ROSEMARY M. COLLYER第一審判定:「原告訴人被了解並同情,戰後六十年,因為麥克阿瑟將軍於一九四五年(一般命令第一號)的緣故,台灣地位停留在懸空狀態(international limbo),被美國及國際忽視,由於毛澤東與中國共產黨,強勢且戲劇性的改變台灣海峽狀態,造成美國與中國長久以來的緊張關係,太平洋戰後,任何正常關係都因朝鮮戰爭,而致使美國與中國共產黨武力對抗而放置一邊。」 法官COLLYER沒有反對筆者所控訴內容:「原告是居於美國軍事管轄下之領土,應享有美憲法與美法律體下的基本人權保障,應享受憲法第五修正案,不得剝奪其旅行權(申請護照權),與第十四修正案之生命、自由、財產與正當法律程序之保障,憲法第八修正案之不得處於被殘酷或奇特之懲罰,包含剝奪國籍權和淪落為無國籍者」,這些法律觀點與論述都得到法官的認同。法官強烈同意支持美國行政部門所述:「台灣沒有獨立」,而且「台灣不屬於中國」,這兩個法律觀點,這可以讓持有「台灣主體意識」的台灣人今後有所「憑藉」,也是中國反對最激烈的「法理台獨」。 法官「駁回原告理由」,認為:筆者在本案最後要求時,牽渋「主權問題」,雖然台灣地位尚未決定,主權歸屬也未定,這一切都是「政治問題」,應由美國國會或美國總統全權處理。筆者堅持:法官結論並不正確,因為Military occupation is a question of fact軍事佔領是事實問題(參考美陸軍野戰手冊FM 27-10 第355段);和舊金山和平條約是美國參議院所通過的,應該被解釋為「可以約束所有美國政府機關的法律文件」,基於這兩點,足以證明筆者所談,絕非法官所認定的「政治問題」。原告將在三十天的法律期限內,向聯邦法院提出上訴要求。 作者:林 志 昇 建國黨決策委員˙台灣平民民主黨政治組 二零零八年三月二十日 "" ===================================== 'China Continues Crack Down on Tibet Protests' Mar20,08 http://tinyurl.com/2pd6ej 'SPIEGEL INTERV.W.

Young, Director, AIT Taipei 組織台灣平民政府籌備委員會 Preparatory Committee for the Organization of Taiwan’s Civil Government Oct. 19, 2007, Taipei 成立要旨 Organizational Premises 台灣人林志昇和旅台美人何瑞元先生加上兩百位台灣鄉親,多年來,不斷地共同向美國國務院與法務署,爭取台灣人民在美國憲法體系中的權利,並於二零零六年十月二十四日向華盛頓聯邦法院提出訴訟,並經受理審理中,國務院相關人士已經告知,白宮、美國國務院美國國防部與國家安全會議委員會,傾向全面承認林、何論述之內容,即戰後台灣仍是美國軍事政府管轄下的美國海外領土,台灣人民應享受美國憲法基本人權保障,台灣人應該領取美國國民護照。 Roger C. S. Lin (a native Taiwanese) and long-time Taiwan resident Richard W. Hartzell (a US citizen) along with his Taiwanese wife and over 200 other local Taiwanese supporters have been in contact with the US Dept. of State and Dept. of Justice over the last several years, urging that the Taiwanese people’s civil rights under the US Constitution should be fully recognized. On Oct. 24, 2006, a lawsuit was filed in United States District Court in Washington, D.C. regarding this agenda, and that lawsuit is continuing at the present time. A highly-placed Dept. of State official has advised us that the White House, Dept. of Defense, Dept. of State, and the National Security Council are in favor of accepting the content of this Hartzell-Lin agenda, which in essence holds that from late-October 1945 to the present Taiwan is an overseas territory under the jurisdiction of the United States Military Government, and the Taiwanese people should be enjoying “fundamental rights” under the US Constitution, including the rights of travel and holding a passport, which are included in the liberty of the Fifth Amendment. 事實陳述 Statement of Facts 美國不支持台灣申請進入聯合國,美國也表示台灣不能獨立。 ... ... 法理論述 Legal Rationale 台灣到底是什麼?林、何論述充分顯示,台灣是美國軍事政府管轄下的一塊領土,美國是台灣的主要佔領權國。中華民國在台灣則是從一九四五年十月二十五日起的身份是「次要佔領權國」。一九四九年十月一日中華民國被中華人民共和國宣告滅亡,一九四九年十二月中旬起中華民國在台灣的身份則是加上「流亡政府」。 What, after all, is Taiwan? The Hartzell-Lin agenda shows that Taiwan is a territory under the jurisdiction of the United States Military Government, and the United States is the principal occupying power of Taiwan. The ROC in Taiwan is a subordinate occupying power beginning Oct. 25, 1945. Oct. 1, 1949, in Beijing saw the founding of the PRC, which simultaneously announced the end of the “Republic of China” era. As of mid-December 1949, with the transfer of its central government to occupied Taiwan, the ROC has become a government in exile. 據美國國務院告知,美國政府自第二次世界大戰以後,建立了一個基金,是台灣「重建」的所需款項,伊拉克戰後也設有同等數目基金。美國二戰後一直都沒有動用到這個「基金」,現在,等待正確台灣重建論述的學者專家提出申請,美國國務院願意協助「台灣平民政府」正確使用,熟悉美國行政作業體系的人士表示。在台灣曾經有國民黨和民進黨的領袖向美國申請動用這個基金,但是,這些申請案沒有通過,主要原因是他們對台灣法律上的地位缺乏正確的認知,所以無法提出正確的觀念來申請這個款項。現在,林、何論述都是從美國憲法、美國法律和國際法為出發點,當然可以通過美國政府高層的檢驗,願意幫台灣人取得這項款項重建台灣。 According to information communicated from the Dept. of State, after WWII the United States established a “Taiwan fund” for all necessary rebuilding and reconstruction in Taiwan, which is similar in many respects to the fund established for rebuilding in Iraq. However, the “Taiwan fund” has remained untouched up to the present day, awaiting application for funding from whatever scholars and other experts can present the correct formulation for handling Taiwan’s future needs. At the present time, it is believed that the Dept. of State is willing for a “Taiwan Civil Government” to make application for funding from this “Taiwan fund.” In previous years in Taiwan, other highly-placed individuals (some of which were associated with the DPP and KMT political parties) have made applications for funding, but they have not received approval, their major fault being an inadequate understanding of Taiwan’s true international legal position. However, at the present time the Hartzell-Lin agenda is known to be precisely based on the US constitution and US legal principles, also with a firm grounding in international law, and so can pass the rigorous inspection of high-ranking US Executive Branch officials, in order that the Taiwanese people can obtain funding for meaningful projects from this “Taiwan fund.” 籌備台灣平民政府 Preparation for Taiwan’s Civil Government 林志昇與何瑞元等,將組織「台灣平民政府」籌備委員會向美國政府申請動用此基金,以便打破目前「統一與台獨」的錯誤現況,展開新的局面。初步的構想,除了購買台灣電視台外,也考慮到各種宣傳資料的印刷、研討會議的召開、報紙的刊登等等。台灣平民政府籌備委員會將包括設置台灣行政長官公署、台灣制憲大會、台灣平民議會等等。台灣平民政府籌備委員會將設置三十一位委員,由不同行業和領域的代表參加,參加者應有基本的英文閱讀能力及能用英文簽名。 Roger C. S. Lin and Richard W. Hartzell are anxious to begin organizing a Preparatory Committee for the Organization of Taiwan’s Civil Government, and to make application to the US government for funding from the aforementioned “Taiwan fund.” They desire to present the correct legal reality to the Taiwanese public, and to break free from the current paralysis in thinking which only sees the two options of “Taiwan independence” and “Unification with the PRC” for Taiwan’s future development. Initial items for serious funding consideration will include the purchase of an existing TV station in Taipei, Taiwan, the printing of pamphlets, brochures, and leaflets, the holding of scholarly conferences, Taiwanese newspaper advertising, etc. This Preparatory Committee for the Organization of Taiwan’s Civil Government will also have to have office space and staff, and will consider weighty issues such as the future organization of a Governing Council for Taiwan, the calling of a constitutional convention under US administrative authority, the organization of a new bicameral Taiwanese legislative body, etc. This Preparatory Committee for the Organization of Taiwan’s Civil Government is envisioned as initially having thirty-one members, all of whom will be outstanding individuals selected from different fields and professions in Taiwan. It is to be expected that these individuals will have basic English reading ability, and be able to sign documents in English. 台灣平民政府籌備會會不定期地在台北市開會,開會的內容首先要擬出向美國政府申請款項的內容說明和明細;討論如何:「讓台灣人民知道台灣真正的國際地位」,讓台灣人過真正有尊嚴的日子,讓台灣人民不再過沒有明天的將來,與不知未來的明天。 This Preparatory Committee for the Organization of Taiwan’s Civil Government will meet in Taipei according to a schedule to be determined. Initial tasks will include drafting a Projected Expense Statement and supporting explanations. The goal of all monies spent will be to let the Taiwanese people know the truth of Taiwan’s international legal position, so that in the future the Taiwanese people can obtain their dignity, and not be constantly worried about what the future may bring. * END * 說明: 依法組織台灣平民政府的相關文件已於 October 19, 2007 送交美國國務院 ,時間至今已滿三個月,經美國律師告知時間已到自然生效之效力。 ... ... 填表格式如圖: Application for ID Card Application for Passport [回首頁] ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ worldjournal.com: http://tinyurl.com/ywjetc 2008-02-01 舊金山和約研究會宣布 台灣平民政府籌備處2日成立 【本報記者周傦桑尼維爾報導】灣區舊金山和約研究會1月31日在桑尼維爾舉行記者會,公布2月2日將在台北成立「台灣平民政府籌備處」消息。 灣區舊金山和約研究會成員謝鎮寬當天表示,由林志昇、何瑞元所代表的「台灣二二八關懷總會」、「保護台灣大聯盟」、建國黨、農民黨等多個社團人士,訂於台北時間2月2日下午2時,在台北市新生南路三段31號一樓福華國際文教會館,舉辦成立台灣平民政府籌備處記者會。 謝鎮寬表示,依據「舊金山和約」及「台灣關係法」,台灣在第二次世界大戰後的國際地位未定;台灣不屬於中華民國或中華人民共和國所擁有。他指出,台灣的領土主權,目前仍由美國軍事政府所持有,台灣人民依法有權成立平民政府。 與會人士陳辰光表示,台灣平民政府將是四百多年來台灣第一個不帶有外來政權標記的政府。 2008-02-01 Posted by bbcweb at 8:48 PM 0 comments Links to this post Tuesday, January 22, 2008 #65 Cascadia.

Like any seaworthy ship abandoned in international waters, any pirate could have legally occupied the .UM ccTLD. Once the .UM ccTLD was legally occupied, the President of the Cesidian Root would have used the legally occupied .UM ccTLD to legally annex the United States Minor Outlying Islands (if the US can occupy the Internet based on territorial claims, then the reverse should also be kosher from a legal standpoint...), and would have renamed the islands the United Micronations Multi-Oceanic Archipelago (UMMOA). There were even Italian and Interlingua translations of the name of the new country. The Italian version of the new country's name was the Arcipelago Multi-Oceanico delle Micronazioni Unite (Amomu). In Interlingua the country was the Archipelago Multi-Oceanic del Micronationes Unite (Amomu). Tallini even had a national motto ready ("E Interrete Libertas", or "From the Internet, Freedom", a beautiful flag, a coat of arms, and two additional TLDs for the country's use, the .UMMOA and .AMOMU ccTLDs. Unfortunately, these things were no secret to Cesidian Root operators, but were also no secret to US intelligence officers, who are spying on everyone's emails and possibly even undisclosed Internet files, especially the emails and the files of the folks of the Cesidian Root. The .UM ccTLD was never abandoned. In November 2007, at the registry website of www.nic.um, a message stated that "Registration is CLOSED at this time. We are only accepting Registrar Accounts." In December 2007, registration was opened with an "Annual Account Maintenance" fee of $1,200 and a $30 annual domain registration. None of these actions, of course, make sense under a purely economic point of view, and in fact there are no active .UM sites other than the registry itself. These actions would make sense, however, if the sole true purpose of the company is essentially to preserve the sovereignty of the United States over the islands of UMMOA, and to fend off any possible legitimate and brilliant attack by a rogue Internet like the Cesidian Root. Moreover, the United States Minor Outlying Islands are not quite a "territory" by International legal standards anyway since: 1. The US Minor Outlying Islands are grouped together entirely as a statistical convenience (they are not a real territory in Montevideo Convention terms, even though the entity is associated with real natural islands); 2. The US Minor Outlying Islands are not administered collectively (they are not a real country or state); 3. The US Minor Outlying Islands do not share a single cultural or political history beyond being currently uninhabited islands under the sovereignty of the United States (they are not a real nation). Given these characteristics, UMMOA is more legitimately the property of a federation of autonomous and scattered micronations, than the idiotic claim of an otherwise legitimate country the size of the United States. The idea On 19 January 2008 the www.ummoa and www.amomu domains came alive in the Cesidian Root. While the President of the Cesidian Root had more or less abandoned the UMMOA project, two Cesidian Root officers showed no indication they were willing to abandon UMMOA. The previously mentioned domains are visible to anyone even outside of the Cesidian Root through the http://ummoa.com and http://amomu.com domains — the Interlingua versions of the domains are the http://ia.amomu.com or http://ina.amomu.com. The Hon. Most Rev. Dr. Cesidio Tallini, who is already Governor of Independent Long Island, Voting Member and Representative for Independent Long Island on the United Commonwealth Society Executive Council, President and Founder of the Cesidian Root, Bishop of the Cesidian Church, and Chancellor of the Saint René Descrates University, is now interested in starting a first Independent Long Island registered organisation called the United Micronations Multi-Oceanic Archipelago (UMMOA), for the expressed purpose of eventually providing each macro- and micronational member of the organisation an UMMOA-based embassy, so any micronation can stand on legal ground in Montevideo Convention terms. Tallini now understands that the project, despite the shenanigans of the .UM organisation, would still be on legal grounds if it went forward. When Tallini abandoned the UMMOA project in disgust on 16 August 2007 to start the Independent Long Island project, he commenced that project more because he felt he was an Independent Long Islander than for any other rational reason. However, Tallini discovered in November 2007 that the Independent Long Island project also stood on legal ground, legal ground actually more solid than even what jus cerebri electronici can provide. If jus cerebri electronici is entirely kosher, since it is actually based on international law, things are not that different with jus cerebri humani, which also stands on a foundation of international law. In fact, jus cerebri humani is even more fundamental than jus cerebri electronici, and would allow the existence of legal territorial nations and micronations that are intellectual creations, as much as new and distinct territorial claims! Tallini figured out that the UMMOA project could now stand on the same legal high ground as the Independent Long Island project, and since UMMOA has no indigenous population, it is an even more plausible project than Independent Long Island! The proposal With the help of like-minded nations and micronations, Tallini would like to start the UMMOA project, and gather support from as many nations and micronations as possible. Nations or micronations will be accepted as supporters regardless of whether they have other territorial claims, or not, so long they do not claim any island of UMMOA, or any group of islands. The purpose here is to guarantee any ambitious micronation valid territorial claims, even if it didn't have any before, because it, as a member of the UMMOA federation, can claim at least a piece of land on UMMOA sufficient to build its own embassy. Claims beyond these in magnitude, however, claims that seek to deprive other nations of sufficient land to build an embassy building, shall not be accepted or considered legal claims by UMMOA. The claim of the United States and of other states to one or more islands of UMMOA is in fact not considered legal. UMMOA exists to augment the sovereignty of many nations, not to monopolise the claims of a power-hungry few. UMMOA exists to bring power back to "We the People", while the United States no longer exists for these reasons, and in fact exists for reasons that contradict the assumption of popular sovereignty, the assumption upon which the words "We the People" are based. Nations yield no sovereignty to UMMOA. New York State and other states may have lost most sovereignty to the US Federal government, and the same thing may already be happening in the European Union as well, but this in not the reason for the UMMOA federation. UMMOA exists to provide any nation with claims, or with additional claims. It exists to support independence, to support sovereignty, not to stamp it out as other federal unions have done in the past. UMMOA in fact exists to create a territorial imperium where none existed before. These claims, will be in turn supported by the intelligence of UMMOA project supporters, and hopefully with significant numbers of nations and micronations a significant neopower can be created. The UMMOA project will try to add visibility to the micronational hobby/activity, by granting any good-willed nation or micronation a stronger foundation for its claims to sovereignty and statehood. It will maximise both micronational independence, as well as micronational collective potential by leveraging the good work of others on multiple levels. The UMMOA project will not concentrate more power into a particular leader, but gather more power in general to micronations and micronationalism. This project is not another impractical YAMO (Yet another micronational organisation), nor does it exist for any other reason than the empowerment of many micronations, and the empowerment of micronationalism itself. We seek to make micronationalism more attractive to a greater number of people. We seek to make micronationalism or alternative nationalism a genuinely wholesome religion of the many, not a fanatical cult of the few. The UMMOA project aims to be expense-free, but it cannot guarantee it will remain expense-free forever. Nevertheless, the UMMOA project will make small demands on nations and their peoples' time. It cannot be expected that a single person shoulders any and all needed expenses or responsibility. For the growth of the UMMOA project, volunteer work will need to become a common currency if it is to succeed in the short and longer term. Tallini guarantees that if he receives support from you and your nation, he will spare no effort to bring UMMOA to its maximum potential, in order to ensure UMMOA draws the attention even of member states of the UN. Currently UMMOA is only a member of the Micronational Professional Registry (MPR); however, Tallini will seek membership and support in many more organisations. You support, your encouragement, your spreading of the word is crucial to the success of the UMMOA project, and to the success of your own nation or micronation as an UMMOA federation member. Conclusion If you believe in the general philosophy of the UMMOA project, Tallini urges you to join the UMMOA federation. There are no forms to sign, no particularly disabling obligations, but without your support, help, and enthusiasm, the UMMOA project cannot reach even a single of its stated goals. If nothing is ventured, nothing can be gained. If you wish to register your nation or micronation for the UMMOA project, please fill-in the form below. Thank you for your time, and please spread the word in other forums, and to other nations.

Rothbard ; LewRockwell.com: "" This article originally appeared in the April 1954 issue of Faith and Freedom. A sign of our time is the split-personality of the conservatives. Many to the right of center are off on a schizophrenic pursuit of both liberty and collectivism. In domestic affairs this regrettable condition is gradually being recognized for what it is. But the time is nigh for conservative foreign policy, as well, to be psychoanalyzed in hope of a cure! "" ... ... "" Yet while conservatives once preferred peace and "isolationism," in our day they appeal in vague terms for liberation of foreign nations and hint that "We've been at war with Communism for years, so let's get it over with." They bitterly denounce European "allies" for being neutralistic and therefore "unreliable," while they praise Chiang, Rhee, and Franco for being anti-Communist and therefore "reliable friends of the United States." They denounce our having entered the Korean War; yet denounce the Korean Truce and call for programs to carry war ever upward and onward. The notion – very widespread – that we should not have entered the Korean War, but once in it should have launched a total war against China, flouts rules of logic. The best preventive of war is to refrain from warring – period. "" ... ... ... ... "" in general, the "emotional complex of fear and vaunting" noted by Garet Garrett, which Harry Elmer Barnes calls the "1984 pattern." The tragic part of the whole situation is that it is the erstwhile isolationists, the ones who above all others should know better, who are leading the war parade. Sinking ever deeper into a war psychosis, these conservatives have failed to perceive that our whole problem today, broadly speaking, is ideological rather than military! "" ... ... ... ... "" What we really have to combat is all statism, and not just the Communist brand. To take up arms against one set of socialists is not the way to stop socialism – indeed it is bound to increase socialism as all modern wars have done. "" ... ... "" The battle can only be waged in the realm of ideas and reason. "" ... ... "" But some conservatives are failing to recognize that the enemy is statism, rather than simply Communism. "" ... ... "" It is a fundamental libertarian proposition that the State only has the right to use force to defend the person and property of individuals against force. "" ... ... "" Yet, being duped by State officials is precisely what mankind has been putting up with for thousands of years. "" ... ... "" In a libertarian society though, it is the individual, not the State, which has the primary choice as to whether and how his defenses shall be maintained. "" ... ... ... ... "" The moral policy for libertarians is to see that the scope of war is kept as localized as possible. The State must be held to its responsibility to enter no foreign war – and to provoke no war via rash and irresponsible statements, official condemnations of other governments, or inordinate armament buildups. Even if our nation is directly attacked by another, justice for those who look askance upon war efforts and levies still requires that the scope of State action be kept within responsible limits. The goal of all State action at such times must be a negotiated peace, "" ... ... ... ... ... ... "" Old-fashioned international law facilitated the maintenance of neutrality and served the important purpose of greatly limiting the scope of any wars that arose. Public opinion could then be educated to impose this type of international law to limit the scope of State action, just as Americans once used the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The United Nations, unfortunately, does not afford a good breeding ground for such constructive principles of international law and order. For it is the seedling of a world State, a master imperialistic power that would dominate the citizens of the entire subject world. Furthermore, the UN is basically committed to collective-security warfare against "aggression" and is therefore a warmongering organization in its very essence. "" ... ... "" To begin, the United States should pull out of the United Nations, and also out of the North Atlantic Treaty Alliance. Secondly, our government should repudiate all other foreign commitments and agreements and foreign aid or "security" endeavors, while withdrawing the military from foreign bases. "" ... ... "" Thirdly, the United States government should "recognize" Red China – on the basis of the old-fashioned international law principles of recognition. Prior to the interventionism of Woodrow Wilson, it was always understood that recognition – especially by a neutralist state – does not imply moral approval. The doctrine that it does has already been responsible for too many wars and bloodshed (vide the Stimson policy toward Japan). Recognition simply means recognizing the physical existence of a state – it is an act of sanity, not an act of praise. Whether we like it or not, Chiang is now ruler of Formosa alone – and no mere recognition or nonrecognition will alter that fact. Unfetter World Trade Fourthly, there should be reestablishment of free and unhampered trade with the Communist countries, by our own nation and by all other nations. Free world trade would not only help break down the iron curtain, but would benefit anti-Communist nations as well as Communist. "" ... ... "" Above all, our foreign policy must not be self-defeating; it must be consistent; it must pursue peace instead of war; and it must advance individual American freedom. Murray N. Rothbard (1926–1995) was the author of Man, Economy, and State, Conceived in Liberty, What Has Government Done to Our Money, For a New Liberty, The Case Against the Fed, and many other books and articles.

"" If Ron Paul were to actually win, he would indeed fail to smash the state entirely. That is neither his intention nor his promise. However, he would clearly move American society far closer toward the anarchist ideal. He would put to rest the most tyrannical and hierarchical organization as it concerns international affairs – the US empire. He would close down the American bases on foreign soil, halt the murderous invasions and bombings, stop dictating terms to other nations, and end the horrifying US regime of torture and indefinite, unchecked detentions. He would end the war on terror, which the two parties intend to maintain for a lifetime. All this alone would make Paul a remarkably unique president. On the world scene, it would finally mean anarchy between nations: There would be no global policeman, the role currently executed by the US government. We would also see an end to the Federal Reserve’s monopoly on currency – the very mainspring from which the entire US corporate state emerges. We would see the federal drug war finally ended. We would see the greatest retrenchment of American state power since the end of World War I, if not ever. "" ... ... "" Since all social conditions, including political structures, are a reflection of public ideology, the Ron Paul Revolution has grand implications for the anarchist struggle, even should he not win the presidency. It has already woken many people up to the principles of liberty. It has exposed many of the contradictions of the state. It has encouraged the idea that the government is far too large and powerful – a conceptual first step for nearly anyone who comes around to adopt anarchism altogether. Most of us anarchists were not always such, and we owe much of our own understanding to intellectual movements over hundreds of years, especially the classical liberal tradition, which had a relationship of mutual influence with individualist anarchism in the nineteenth century. And today, Paul himself welcomes this long-established relationship, even pointing out at speaking engagements that the Ron Paul Revolution has its share of anarchists. What other politician would explicitly boast his anarchist support? Ron Paul's movement is one that puts liberty at the center, and can only be of great benefit to the anarchist cause in the future. This brings me to a word for the left-anarchists. Many of you have, with some justification, pointed out that rightwing libertarians and conservatives sometimes misunderstand the true essence of state power and have political priorities that are not just flawed but counterproductive to the cause of liberty. Minarchists and conservatives who embrace the government’s police power, its law-and-order functions and military wing, and save most of their animosity for the welfare state, just don’t get it. Although I consider the welfare state to be a truly stifling and reactionary organization – Noam Chomsky’s brand of anarchism notwithstanding – this left-anarchist critique of the right has some merit. Indeed, stealing money from taxpayers and giving it to welfare recipients is not as despicable or aggressive as stealing the same amount of money and using it to murder children abroad or lock up peaceful people at home. Well, for what it’s worth, Ron Paul is not a typical conservative, or even like all too many libertarians, in this respect. He is running mostly to dismantle the empire and national-security state; his first priority is not to kick anyone onto the street, and he has stressed this many times. He further understands that just because the military is a Constitutional function of government does not mean it should get a pass whereas the food stamp programs should not. He really does want to dramatically slash the state’s most egregious instruments – those of mass murder, mass destruction and totalitarian control of foreign and domestic subjects. When the issue of social entitlements comes up, he makes clear that his top priority is eliminating the entitlements to the military industrial complex, which he considers the most immoral and unjustified subsidies of all. No liberal Democrat of any stature goes nearly as far as Ron Paul does in opposing the warfare state. While he also opposes the welfare state, he knows that he’ll have his hands full with ending the war and will be somewhat restrained by Congressional prerogative. He also knows the most pressing moral mandate is to stop the killing. When asked about what he considered the most urgent ethical crisis of our time, he says it is the American culture’s adoption of aggressive war as acceptable policy. As for corporatism, taxation and economic issues, Ron Paul says what the phony limited-government Republicans never dare to utter: The most evil and destructive of taxes is the inflation tax, the printing of money that robs from the value of the poor man’s dollar and shovels profits into the coffers of Wall Street, the big energy and pharmaceutical firms, and especially the defense contractors. Every time the subject of spending comes up, he focuses on cutting the military. Every time the subject of taxes comes up, he focuses on the most regressive one of all: inflation. All too many leftist radicals ignore this clandestine and cruel robbery of the working and middle classes, and those on fixed incomes, to fund lavish corporate welfare. Ron Paul, in contrast, has for decades considered it a fundamental issue. Taking the federal government’s legal tender monopoly away would truly be the most revolutionary economic reform in a century, and it is near the top of Paul’s agenda. Anarchists should take notice that Paul is also nearly alone in opposing the state-corporate partnerships that emerge in American agricultural policy, phony international "free-trade" agreements, and the administration of health care subsidies to Big Pharma. When he champions free trade, he takes it seriously, condemning trade sanctions as tools of war and agitating to normalize relations with the Cuban people. He is opposed to the government having a monopoly on weapons, and so he rejects all federal gun control laws. He opposes censorship in all forms. "" ... ... "" Even on those particular issues where anarchists might most disagree with Paul, his position is far less tyrannical and nationalist than the likes of Hillary Clinton and Rudy Giuliani, and still offers a better approach than we can expect to get from US politics. And while we disagree, his movement is still a blessing for the public’s overall consciousness regarding liberty. Finally, to reiterate, he is running not so much on the few issues where he accepts a somewhat active role for the state, but mostly on his strongest issue – the most important issue of our time – the long-overdue dismantling of the American empire, after more than a century of international mayhem, financial fraudulence and relentless assaults on our liberty at home. It is from his priorities that we can tell Paul has no interest in power for its own sake. He does not promise to feed the masses from cradle to grave and protect them from every cave-dwelling extremist in the Middle East because he knows the limits of power and the superiority of liberty over false security. He knows the full danger of centralized power in particular, which is why he would not use the central state even to impose his agenda on local polities. This decentralist emphasis we see in his campaign – which parallels nicely with the spontaneous, voluntary, decentralized and anarchic nature of his grassroots support – is an important component in any meaningful program to actually reduce state power. The federal government, being the largest and most internationally belligerent in all the world, must be shrunk first, and as much as possible, for any of us to have a lasting chance at freedom. When it comes to understanding the true meaning of liberty and having the right priorities, Ron Paul is actually better than many mainstream libertarians and even self-described anarchists. He has awoken Americans to the key issues of foreign policy, civil liberties, and inflationary finance in a way no politician ever has. He might not excite those anarchists who, not engaged in the real world, do not care particularly much about what form or powers our government takes or how many people it kills and tortures and imprisons. On the other hand, for all anarchists who see US aggression abroad, the destruction of habeas corpus and privacy, the secret torture chambers, the economic fascism, the drug war gulags and the burgeoning domestic police state as crucial issues, constituting a colossal national emergency, Ron Paul’s movement is one to be cheered far and wide.

He follows an urban-shamanic path; reads and teaches Tarot; and does metaphysical counseling. ] LewRockwell.com ; December 15, 2007 : "" They might call it the Golden Rule but we know it as the Wiccan Rede. An' It Harm None, Do What Thou Wilt. As long as you're not hurting anyone, it's no one else's business what you do. Live and let live. That's the One Rule by which we live. It doesn't matter which particular path you follow, just that you are allowed to live your life as you see fit and let others do the same. It's because of this one simple philosophy that I think it's very important you consider your role in the future of this country. Some things have happened lately that some of you might not be aware of: the USA PATRIOT Act, the Military Commissions Act, the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007, several executive orders and signing statements... I'm not going to try to educate those who don't know about these things because I know you're all smart enough to learn for yourselves. It's what we do, right? And most of you have probably been keeping up on these things with a fear you've not known since you learned the monster under the bed was there to protect you. The last time people were rounded up and put into pens it was the Japanese Americans. That was when nationality was top of the list of "Things To Be Afraid Of". Now it's religion. So we have to ask ourselves: how long before they start to bring up the old lies about us? How far a leap is it from "Suicide Bomber" to "Human Sacrificer"? We've been persecuted for quite a while. Some of you are registered priests and priestesses. Have you ever thought how silly it is to have to "register" to be a priest or priestess? Okay, maybe "insulting" would be a better word than "silly", but you get my point. This is interference. But if you want to read Tarot in public, or do Chakra Readings or Aura Therapy or anything else that's part of our traditions, you either register or you keep the disclaimer we all know and loath: "For Entertainment Purposes Only". And now the WHO isn't just a pretty good band but an international organization that's trying to tell us we can't sell aromatherapy bath salts or incense or herbal teas as health goods. What are we supposed to do? "For Air-Freshening Purposes Only"? NAFTA, CAFTA, AU... And then came a man. A lot of us have learned to fear monotheists because the belief in "One above all others" when it comes to gods translates into a belief in "one above all others" when it comes to people, too. But there's a monotheist that actually understands the Wiccan Rede, even though he calls it the Golden Rule. "" ... ... "" Nearly all of us believe that war is tantamount to mass murder on the grandest of scales. He does too. He'd bring all our troops home from Iraq immediately (as immediately as would be safe; he says they'd all be home in no more than a year). But he wouldn't stop there: he wants all our troops home from all over the world. No more crusades. No more Saint George and the Dragon. No more death to the infidel. Just an extremely strong defense. How long has it been since the word "defense" actually meant "defense" and not "offence"? He wants to return it to the correct definition. "Oh sure, but what does he want in return?" He wants us to vote for him. Dr. Paul – he actually is a medical doctor, specifically an OB/GYN, who never accepted Medicare but instead took care of patients for free when they couldn't afford to pay – is a US Representative who wants to be President so he can return that office to its rightful place of service instead of rulership. Do me a favor, please. Do yourself a favor. If you don't already support him (as I expect most of us do), then please go to www.RonPaul2008.com and check out his stands on the issues. Find the records of his speeches before congress and the laws he's voted on (both yea and nay) and sponsored. Research him. And research, really research, the rest of the candidates. Most of us are Democrats (or were) or independents. Most of us despise Republicans. He's the exception to the rule of what Republicans are, though, so don't let yourself turn off when you hear his party. When they hear we're pagan, they write us off. We're better than that. Finally a man that the Three Fold Law holds up and bathes in light is running for President. Finally a person who will be President will actually carry a lantern instead of a rifle.
