LETTER TO MY SON
MAY 22, 2009
DEAR SCOTT,
THANKS FOR THE INFORMATION ON MUSLIM DEMOGRAPHICS. IT IS DIFFICULT TO CHECK NUMBERS, BUT, THE TRENDS ARE PROBABLY TRUE. IF YOU REMEMBER "2015", MAYBE YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHY I "SUGGESTED" (URGED?) YOU TO HEAD FOR AUSTRALIA. IT WAS THE ONLY REFUGE (MAYBE NEW ZEALAND?) THAT I COULD SEE WHERE CIVILIZATION, AS WE KNOW IT, MIGHT SURVIVE IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
I AM STILL "NOT SOLD" ON THE IDEA THAT MUSLIMS WILL RULE THE WORLD. I THINK CHINA AND INDIA HAVE TOO MUCH OF A "HEAD START", BUT, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE "WESTERN CULTURE" WILL BE TRANSFORMED INTO A MUSLIM ONE, BECAUSE OF IMMIGRATION, JUST LIKE THE U.S. CULTURE WILL BE TRANSFORMED INTO A HISPANIC ONE (UNLESS THE MUSLIMS "WIN"). THESE THREE CULTURES WILL THEN "SHARE" WHAT IS LEFT OF THE WORLD. (NOTE: I EXPECT YOU DID NOT READ MY BLOG ON IMMIGRATION, BUT, YOU MIGHT FIND IT INTERESTING.)
STILL, I AM "NOT OPTIMISTIC" THAT ANY FUTURE WORLD WILL BE A WORLD IN WHICH "LIFE AS WE KNOW IT" (PRETTY GOOD) WILL EXIST. THE PROBLEMS OF "OVER POPULATION" WILL ESSENTIALLY DESTROY THE ABILITY OF THE WORLD TO PROVIDE A DECENT STANDARD OF LIVING FOR ANYONE. THE "ONLY" THING I SEE THAT MIGHT CHANGE THAT IS "UNLIMITED AND CHEAP ENERGY" (FROM THE SUN?). OF COURSE, THAT WILL NOT CHANGE THE "DEMOGRAPHICS". THAT MUCH I CAN AGREE TO.
SINCE ONE CANNOT "CHANGE" THE "INEVITABLE", ONE (MEANING J.J.) NEEDS TO "ADJUST". I TOLD YOU THAT "LEARNING CHINESE" WAS PROBABLY "ESSENTIAL", BUT, NEITHER OF YOU SEEMED TO UNDERSTAND. I THINK I STILL HAVE THE TEACHER'S NAME. OF COURSE, I DON'T KNOW IF HE IS STILL ALIVE.
GIVEN THE NUMBERS, YOU WILL PROBABLY "ESCAPE" THE COMING CHANGES IN CULTURE (WHERE WHITES WILL BE THE "OPPRESSED MINORITY"), JUST I WILL BASICALLY "ESCAPE" MOST OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE "FOLLY" OF THE AMERICAN CULTURE (BOTH GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS) SINCE APRIL, 1951, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY. I STILL "MAY" BE GIVEN A "NEEDLE" TO "PUT ME TO SLEEP, WHEN THE RESOURCES (AS EXISTED TO CARE FOR MY MOTHER) NO LONGER EXIST TO CARE FOR ME. OBVIOUSLY, I HAVE NO FAITH THAT THE PRESENT MINORITIES (OR NON-WHITES) WILL BE ANYWHERE NEAR "AS KIND AND UNDERSTANDING" OF THE RIGHTS (NEEDS) OF THE WHITE MINORITY AS THE WHITE MAJORITY HAS BEEN FOR THOSE OF COLOR.
THE IDEAS OF "EQUALITY AND JUSTICE" DO NOT SEEM TO EXIST IN SUCH CULTURES. IT "WAS" ONLY IN WESTERN CULTURE THAT SUCH IDEAS FLOURISHED. (FROM GREECE, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY). I SUBMIT, AS EVIDENCE, WHAT PEOPLE OF COLOR DO TO THEIR OWN POPULATIONS. IF YOU KNEW THE "HISTORY OF CIVILIZATION" (ESPECIALLY, THE INFLUENCE OF RELIGION), YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT RELIGION IS BASICALLY THE MEANS USED BY THOSE WHO WOULD "RULE" TO CONTROL OTHERS. FROM "WITCH DOCTORS" TO THE "T.V. EVANGELISTS", USING RELIGION HAS PROVEN A MUCH EASIER WAY TO "TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE" AND "RELIGIOUS TYRANTS" KNOW THAT IT IS MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE TO CONTROL PEOPLES' MINDS THAN TO CONTROL THEM PHYSICALLY, AS WITH GUNS AND CHAINS.
THIS IS NOT TO DENY THAT I BELIEVE IN SOME "ALL POWERFUL" FORCE THAT CREATED AND ULTIMATELY CONTROLS THE UNIVERSE. CHRISTIANS CALL IT "GOD". OTHERS HAVE OTHER NAMES, BUT, THAT DOES NOT SEEM TO CHANGE "HUMAN NATURE" FOR THE BETTER. I GUESS I WOULD DEFINE THAT AS "LIVING IN HARMONY WITH NATURE, INCLUDING OTHER HUMANS".
I ALSO TOLD YOU THAT THE "WEAPONS OF WAR" HAVE CHANGED FROM EXPLOSIVES TO ECONOMICS AND FOOD/WATER/SHELTER/HEALTH CARE/ETC. OF COURSE, NO WESTERN GOVERNMENT WILL ACKNOWLEDGE (OR USE) THESE METHODS TO "SAVE THEMSELVES". IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN TRUE THAT THE "GENERALS" (ARMED FORCES) ARE WELL PREPARED TO FIGHT THE "LAST WAR". THE CULTURE OF "MILITARY INTELLIGENCE" (DEFINITELY AN OXYMORON) DOES NOT CHANGE.
IT IS "DIFFICULT" FOR ME TO KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING AND NOT TO BE ABLE TO "DO" ANYTHING TO AVOID THE COMING DISASTER. AS YOU KNOW, WHEREVER I WENT, I TRIED TO "IMPROVE" THE AREAS FOR WHICH I WAS RESPONSIBLE AND, FOR MY EFFORTS, I WAS "SEVERELY CASTIGATED". I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO MARTIN LUTHER, BUT, I DO SEEM TO REMEMBER THAT HE ALSO "PROTESTED" AGAINST THE INJUSTICES OF THE CATHOLIC RELIGION AND SAID, "I CAN DO NO OTHER" (OR WORDS TO THAT EFFECT). MY LIFE HAS BEEN VERY SIMILAR TO HIS.
YOU "KNOW" THAT MANY OF THE TERRIBLE SITUATIONS IN THIS COUNTRY (IF NOT THE WORLD) COULD BE "IMPROVED" AND YOU KNOW "HOW" IT COULD BE DONE, BUT, YOU ARE MORE INTELLIGENT THAN I AND YOU SIMPLY "ADJUST" TO THE CONDITIONS AND AVOID CONFLICT. HOPEFULLY, YOU CAN HELP "J.J." TO DO THE SAME. SHOULD SHE BECOME AN "IDEALIST" (AS I AM), SHE WILL CERTAINLY NOT LACK FOR "CAUSES" TO STAND AGAINST, BUT, SHE WILL "PROBABLY" PAY THE SAME PRICE I PAID.
WHILE I ADMIRE THOSE WHO "CARE ENOUGH" TO SACRIFICE THEIR LIVES (IF NOT VIRTUAL, THEN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL) FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVE, I AM NOT SURE THAT THE "SACRIFICE" IS NOT MADE IN VAIN. SO SAD. LOVE, DAD
