“Coexist” With This, Filthy Hippies

The GFY Sticker

Do you hate those idiotic “Coexist” bumper stickers? The ones that spell the word out using the Islamic crescent, the yin-yang, the Magen David, and the Cross as letters? God knows I do. The presence of one of those things on a car is a guarantee that the person who put it there is a gormless, trend-following liberal tool who in a just world would be staring forlornly through the barbed-wire fence of a concentration camp instead of sashaying around town in their cute little car spreading the brazenly nonsensical idea that people with diametrically-opposed and fundamentally-incompatible worldviews can somehow live side by side in peace.

Anyway, if you hate them (the stickers, not the liberal tools) like I do, then fight back! Buy one of my handy-dandy, patented GFY bumper stickers, pictured above. Printed in the same hippie-blue shade as the Coexist sticker, this baby will tell the world that the driver of your car is a person who lives in the Real World and not some overgrown adolescent who can’t distinguish between the World As They Wish It To Be and the World As It Is.

No joke.  To get your sticker, send check or money order for $5.00 (plus $2.50 postage and handling) in U.S. funds to:

Some Thoughts on the Passing of Steve Jobs (1955-2011)

Steve Jobs is dead.

I’m saddened. Besides the grief his family and loved ones must feel, his death brings a loss to the world. He was a true innovator. Apple products and the technologies derived from them have reordered our way of living. While Jobs did not invent either the personal computer or the graphical interface operating system, the PCs and personal digital devices he created implement these in a way that has had an impact on society equal to that of the automobile, telephone, and antibiotic drugs. I used Apple products exclusively throughout my thirty years as a graphic designer and illustrator, and (although I am a Windows user now) it is safe to say that I would not have had a career as a professional artist without Mr. Jobs and his magic computer machines.

And yet…

I have always had mixed feeling about the Apple Revolution. While Apple PCs and devices have led the way to our current world of interconnectedness and immediacy, I wonder if this has been entirely for the good. Think about it: Apple products put the Internet, texting, entertainment downloading, social media, and many other things at our fingertips. As a result, the world has become more convenient and more connected. But has it become better? Have Apple’s wares helped us to become more free, more kind-hearted? Have they helped us to be better people?

One can make a good case that they have not. The world of chatrooms, comments threads, kitty-cat pictures, and Facebook pages is a bright, fun place when looked at out of the corner of one’s eye. Repeated viewing — especially up close –  will, however,  reveal the darker side of the Information Age. We are more connected to one another than ever before — and the ugliness that lurks within the human heart is more openly displayed. We can each design and create more easily than ever before — but few would argue that our world has become better-designed or more beautiful than it was pre-Apple. And the personalization of computing has put unlimited knowledge at the fingertips of every man — and knowledge is, they say, power.

But while the Mac, iPhone, and iPad have given us power, they have also taken it away. With them we have access to essentially unlimited knowledge of the world around us; the world around us. And with them, the world around us now has access to essentially unlimited knowledge about each of us. From one point of view, the iPhone and iPad are powerful tools for communication, education and entertainment. From another, they are the most powerful intelligence-gathering tools ever devised. Thanks to Steve Jobs and the iWorld he has created, the Powers That Be no longer have to gather intelligence on you and me. We build our own dossiers now!

Is that a good thing?

Apple’s logo is an apple with a bite — byte, get it? — taken out of it. While this means nothing of itself, I have always wondered why so few people associate the logo with the Biblical story it brings to mind. It was, after all, by means of an apple that man became an enemy of God.

And the Forbidden Fruit was not the company’s original logo. The first design was much more interesting from an esoteric viewpoint. It depicts Isaac Newton (Freemason and astrologer) sitting under a tree with an apple dangling above his head. The apple, as we all know, is about to fall, and its impact will enlighten (illuminate) Newton and the rest of the world. The motto on the original logo reads “A Mind Forever Voyaging Through Strange Seas of Thought … Alone.”

The original price of Apple I was $666.66. No, really.

Steve Jobs got everything he wanted. He also died awfully young. That sort of life occasionally happens here on poor old planet Earth, and I suppose it’s something to be celebrated. But I can’t help but be reminded of another story when I read the amazing tale of the late Mr. Jobs. And as Apple products become more and more central to our lives, I can’t help but wonder if there might have been something more than a shrewd mind behind the company’s rise. It’s a long, long way from the obscurity of a garage to the most valuable company in the world. History is full of men who were willing to deal with the Devil to gain such false success.

But there is absolutely no reason to think the late founder of Apple Computer was one such man. Rest in peace, Steve Jobs — and thanks for the great computers.

Some folks who are serious about space colonization are upset by this video. The gist of their fear is that we aren’t going to establish humanity off-world before the Green freaks, eco-nuts, and Luddites drag us down into a new Dark Age.

Sadly, the Dark Age we all fear has to come before we can open the frontier.

This is a world at war. The forces of Good (God, order, duty, love) are fighting the forces of Evil (Satan, chaos, liberty, self-worship). The Good Guys go by many different names. I call the bad guys the Revolution. Today, the Revolution holds power around the world. We can’t hope to fight it; the Revolutionary Vanguard have the metaphorical Maxim gun, and we have not. It’s called State power, and the enlightened ones have no qualms about using it to further the Great Work. This, as the video notes, is the establishment of a techno-utopia for the Revolutionary Vanguard, and the scouring of the rest of humanity from the face of Mother Earth. The Revolution’s ultimate goal:  the enlightened few, walking alone and in silence among the unspoiled beauty of a depopulated world. Heaven will be a Place on on Earth. They Will have Gotten Themselves Back to the Garden. These eternal Mandarins will eat freely of the digital trees of a technocommunist Paradise, their lives extended to the maximum by technological means, their humanity — and the hole in their souls they cannot plug with all their orgasms, hedonism, and soma — genetically engineered away. This is C.S. Lewis’ “Abolition of Man”: they will do away with humanity — their own included — to build by the wisdom of Solomon the new Temple of Hiram Abiff, incarnate the goddess Liberty upon the Holy of Holies, and by so doing realize the promise of Genesis 3:22.

They've never hidden their purpose.It's right there in plain sight for those who can see it.

Fortunately, they can’t succeed. The Revolution is contrary to human nature and the teleology of the Universe, not to mention the Will of You Know Who, and it cannot endure. Its foundation is chaos, the state of absolute individual liberty, Do What Thou Wilt — a basis of sand.  Their attempts to “immanentize the Eschaton” have instead created  Hell on Earth, one that has gotten hotter each day since 1789. (This is the true global warming).

And it won’t last. The global technocratic system is already starting to come apart — and once it does, the Revolution’s rod of power — the State Almighty — shatters. The ability of the enlightened few to enact their utopian schemes will crumble. Things will fall apart; the center will not hold. “I have seen the Future, brother — it is murder.”

And then? Order will return, as it always does — and an order based not upon the sullen ideology of the Revolution, but upon the organic structure of human life: the family, writ large as the Tribe. The Tribes will return, they will scour the scum of the Revolution from the world, they will enshrine the natural social order in the courts of law, and, in time, they will resurrect the Empire amid the ruins of the old. As in A.D. 800, a new King of the Franks will someday kneel on the porphyry. In time, his Empire will send forth caravels of its own, this time to the stars.

The way home does not go around the Dark Age. It goes through its center, and out the other side.
