Bare-bones summary of Vinnieosophy

An attempt to summarize bare-bones of Vinnieosophy:                       18Oct2011

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”

(Paraphrase: “Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”)
          --George Santayana (1863–1952)

History:

Holocaust,

Easter-Island ecological disaster resulting in cannibalism

          (a microcosm which is playing out on island-Earth in macrocosm),

2003 UN report = 25K/dy (17/min) die of starvation

          (smallest estimate I found to avoid exaggeration),
WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.

If u don’t pro-actively create your present & future, someone else will.

“If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem,”

          --Sydney J Harris

If you r consuming more than contributing/producing

(if others need to support u),

u r a destroyer/problem.

If you r contributing/producing more than consuming

(ur supporting self+),

u r a builder/solution.

“If we really care, individually each of us can make a difference,
but collectively, we can change the world.” 
          --Character Huey Walker in 1990 movie Flashback
‎"Inspired people can do much individually,

but can do more with like-minded people."

          --Donald Watson

So, unless u can build your own house from scratch,

AND build ALL your own cars,

AND grow ALL of your food,

AND make ALL your cloths,

AND handle ALL your own & family medical emergencies,

AND educate yourself & your whole family

          w/o anyone else’s books or Internet,

AND provide ALL your own protection w/o anyone making a gun for you,

don’t be so naïve as to say anything as ridiculous as,

“I’m spiritual but not a religious joiner.”

“Religion” means binding-together for a common purpose.

Religion = from Latin religi, from religre, bind-together

Legion  =  from Latin legi, from legere, gather-together

So if the word “religion” bothers you, drop the “re,” call it “ligion” or “legion,”

& join movements doing the most to improve GNH (Gross-National-Happiness), e.g.,

Quantum-Vinnieosophy-Evolvers (the universalist hopesday-cult of 1% passion-legion)
