"Growth continues so long as the minority retains its creative vitality and inspires collective effort."
True. Yet may we define 'growth' as neither economic nor technological dominance but rather conscious human evolution toward wellness, sovereignty and peace?
After this admin destroyed 150+ hospitals, 200+ schools, and total destruction of the infrastructure which makes life tolerable I highly doubt the B/S! about Iranians rising up in support of America bring an end to the current corrupt regime just to replace it with a new more technologically advanced corrupt regime.
We can also think of the decline as growing old and dying, like any living system. Stanley Salthe writes about this. As a complex system grows old, it calcifies and becomes reactive trying to preserve its state rather than to adapt.
So, are we all in agreement that the US government can't be reformed and needs to be rebooted to the Constitution?
Steve Bannon is a highly successful investment banker and has operated at the highest levels of business and government, dealing with most all the tech giants the the one you met with, had an interesting take. He said that the tech oligarchs, no matter their competence in their field, were like little children when it came to topics outside of that area for the most part. So, the fact that this industrial giant you met with was imminently successful, he may not have any idea of what you and the good dr. know about as a matter of course. This might explain their near total insouciance about the collapse we see all around us, because they live in a bubble, where everyone is exactly like them and their wealth and station keeps the anarcho-communists/islamists/criminal element far from themselves and their wives and children.
They are like the Bourbons in pre-revolution France: they forgot nothing, and they learned nothing.
And more specifically, in the US, we have ceased to govern and behave according to the Christian principles upon which our nation was founded. George Barna found that only 4% of American adults currently possess a Christian world view. Without Christian principles as a guiding force, human beings will all do "what's right in their own eyes." Hence, an amoral society which rots from within.
We still have the Bill of Rights in the Constitution, and the D.O.I. As long as people will defend their God-given rights, as well as exercise their Holy Spirit-led belief system, then it will not be as easy for the rot to permeate.
In my work Taming the Wolf: Peace through Faith (and in other writings) I point out the most common driver of conflict: the destructive hidden influence. This is the "off stage" player who operates covertly.
The hidden influence drives conflict between other parties. In many cases, the parties remain unaware of the covert influence and the conflict persists, seeming intractable.
The intention of the destructive hidden influence is to diminish or ruin other parties. Fear is often the driver of their destructive mindset. I have witnessed this in most of the conflicts I mediated in the courts, in church settings, in schools, and elsewhere.
What Toynbee may have assumed were collective suicidal impulses may not have been the cause of a collapse. Rather, the societal collapse may have come about because of the activity of destructive hidden influences undermining the society or culture.
We see this today to a huge degree. We find covert operators with significant power in key institutions driving conflict. (DOJ, Courts, Media, etc)
When the culture becomes successful, there is a tendency for people to take their attention off threats and an environment develops that is not attuned to deception and covert operations. We become tolerant of viewpoints that wreak havoc. We fail to root out the hidden influences tearing at the fabric of life.
Religion was once an institution that spoke to evil intentions, evil purposes, and demonic forces. But as the churches became "tolerant" they failed to perform their role in fueling the conversation regarding laudable intentions and evil intentions. They failed to lift the gaze of the culture off the legalistic to the ethical and moral. They failed to maintain a cultural awareness of intentions... and those with destructive hidden intentions.
So cultures collapsed not so much from a suicidal mindset as a failure to constantly monitor conflict created by destructive hidden influences.
Some cohort organized influence is open, not done in secret, but the power of attacks became ridicule, insults, demeaning by use of cunning intellectual trained skiled words, such as are used by Evolutionist today. Eventually the sophist's skills wore down the Church leaders of the salad words, your views are religion, non empirical belief, and ours are science, evidence of fact. Then came the drug sophist, if you have not tried it, do not knock it. It was a Sales Pitch given to.Eve, and Adam was with her, and he was guilty of Silence, he failed to give a warning of internal and spiritual harm. And here we are on the brink of Fat Man or Little Boy bombing of 90 million Persians, unarmed to take over armed militants. What price we pay for Victory. Ask Japan, they know all about it.
"John Bunyan's Pilgrim’s Progress is a classic of spiritual and psychological insight. It tells of the adventures of Christian, who leaves everything behind to set out on the perilous journey to the Celestial City. He encounters weird people whose names match their characters, like Superstition, the hypocritical Talkative, and the terrifying Giant Despair. He runs into the Hill of Difficulty, Valley of Humiliation, and County of Conceit. But the brave pilgrim makes progress. Little by little, obstacles fall behind. Despite fears and failures, he perseveres until he reaches the Celestial City. The difficulties and dangers represent negative psychological conditions within Christian himself.
Each of us must, as cosmic pilgrims, boldly set forth, conquer inner negatives, and so advance to inner light. While pausing at a riverbank, Christian and his companion, Hopeful, are downcast. The way has been rough. They yearn for an easier path. Looking around, they see a trail parallel to a meadow. Liking its looks, Christian tries to persuade Hopeful to join him in taking it. Hopeful, worriedly wonders whether it might lead them astray, but Christian confidently predicts all will be well. Easy at first, the path becomes increasingly severe because it was the wrong one. Losing their way in a storm, they stumble about until they find shelter where they fall asleep. Next morning, more grief. They are captured by the Giant Despair and imprisoned in Doubting Castle. Here, they stop to think things over. Christian admits his foolishness at leaving the true path for what appeared to be an easy way. But now he resolves to make things right by escaping from his own folly. Finding within his clothing a key named Promise, Christian unlocks the dungeon door. Once more, he and Hopeful set their faces toward the Celestial City." N. L. - V.H.
Moses, man of keeping the law, in purity, did not enter the promised land, he only saw it from a distance now 120 years old , fighting in the wilderness for 40 years. The Key was yet to come, and today, the majority reject it. John 3:16-17.
On the other hand, he ignores other factors that affected both civilizations and the Soviet Union to a degree:
Loss of Religious and Cultural Faith & Morality.
Social Breakdown, ideological revisionism that systematically dismantling the achievements and historical foundations of Western civilization.
Breakdown of the Traditional Family; Cultural Relativism and Moral Confusion is a shift away from clear standards of right and wrong toward a relativism;
Then Mass Migration and Multiculturalism with the abandonment of assimilation that is erasing Western identity. Finally
Educational and Institutional Decline, the spread of "academic elitism" and the abandonment of core classical education in favor of political ideology in universities and local schools.
America is absolutely committing "suicide". Over 90% of Americans have metabolic dysfunction and 77% of 18-24 year olds are unfit for military service because of obesity. Our leaders are dragging us into never ending and unwinnable wars just to take the focus off their illegal escapades (Epstein) and enrich their military industrial complex buddies. How can we survive?
The Western Empire suffered a series of epidemics during the reign of Marcus Aurelius. Some think it was the first entry of measles into Europe. This was followed by declining agricultural output - possibly due in part to a worsening climate - and a declining birth rate. The migration of peoples then produced a series of invasions, increasing a demand for soldiers from a smaller reservoir.
The short of it is that the Western Empire fell mostly due to a coincidence of external calamities.
Human failings didn't help. But it's all too easy to inject cosmic moralism into events by assigning disasters to human failings. Doing so is a way of giving meaning to human life and suffering. False meaning.
The days of the Eastern Empire were numbered after it lost the 12th Century Battle of Manzikert to the Turks. Admittedly, in that case, the general of the infantry betrayed the Byzantine Army. He marched his troops off the field to service political ambition. Even so, the Byzantine cavalry alone almost won.
In any case, it was again an external event that brought eventual downfall. And let's not forget the geopolitical imbecility of the 4th Crusade.
You've become something of a millenarian of late, John. Everywhere blaming human failure for a supposed coming apocalyptic transformation.
More irrelevant word salad from one of the resident Zionists here. Ignoring the elephant in the room: Zionist control of the U.S. government (i.e. control of the malignant narcissist, Don Tzu) in the service of ethnosupremicism and “Greater Israel” from the Nile to the Euphrates).
Frank never loses an opportunity to be a hasbara-spewing ethnosupremicist Zionist hack. You bet I’m a partisan against Zionist genocide. Imagine that —- Frank thinks that “partisan” is a derogatory term. Thus, Frank would disparage the anti-Nazi Czech PARTISANS in WW2. Frank is an elderly Zionist living comfortably in the U.S., completely in Zionist tow, with no objection to ZioNazi behavior.
There has been a pattern, though, of the rise and fall of empires. I agree that we cannot attribute internal corruption as an all-cause explanation. However, it may be key among a confluence of factors or not. The reality of random events is terrifying, so humans attempt to sustain a sense of control by attaching meaning where none exists. However, reflecting on the elements under our control that went awry is a constructive exercise, I think.
Maybe, first step is to stop lying about stuff, and making integrity and honesty the best-evidence policy, especially, of the elitist academics. It was the medical groups that pulled the Covid-19 mRNA and DNA mandated injections Coup d'Tate. They controlled the armies and business industrial complex. When will they be criminslly charged for felonies, no true informed risk consent injecting 80% unthinking Americans and 90% Canadians. Was this an Eastern attack on the Western civilizations? Who is all accountable, lest we forget and move on to the next Pandemic, this was the second one after the 1918 Spanish Flu Parasite attack.
Agreed that learning from past mistakes is always constructive. One might think of calamities more as the result of an unpredictable but deterministic chaos, rather than just random.
Society's only recourse is to build resilience. Defend and recover. Fortunately today, we have much more knowledge, power, and experience to bring to bear than did our ancestors.
But you're right - there's not much room to lose focus and mess around.
A "creative minority" requires tools and resources with which to create. A proud minority of leaders does not require resources with which to create novel improvements, but can rely on the habits and assumptions of society when silver, wheat and other resources run low.
It is the control of a society which is paramount to power-elites.
Yes, No and Maybe. The Triune answer inside our positive_Nuetral_negative proton/neutron/electron existence with in space-linear time. Linear time that only moves on a forwards motion Divine ratchet. Destroying any validity to Atheist claims to moral relativity with out consequences. And relegates them to broken clocks telling time correctly once daily on a digital 24 hour clock, run by God.
Chinese Communist Atheists committed Chinese Civilization Suicide. Murdering over 70 million Chinese during Mao’s Cultural Civilization purge of previous 4,000 years. Yes. And President Trump stood on the White House lawn with Chinese Atheists and declared that genocidal act of destroying previous Chinese Civilization was “the highest accomplishment of humanity during the 20th Century.”
No. The Aztecs, Mayans and Norse Pagans did Not commit suicide destroying each of their civilizations. They converted to Christianity.
Maybe. Maybe if Mayans and Aztecs had become fully Christian Civilizations like the Norse Pagan Scandinavians did, they would not have fully disappeared, but would have transformed.
The bottom line is we are witnessing temper tantrums of The Black Swan “Intellectual yet Idiot” class melting down at the abject failure of their Multiculturalism experiments. Cultures and Civilizations built around those cultures are clearly not Equal. The human and human child sacrifice cannibals, Mayans, Aztecs and Norse Pagans, were not/are not equal to Christian Cultures/Civilizations. Based on quantifiable human rights and standards of living. And 7th Century Sharia Law Jihadi war/jihad civilization that destroyed modern Persian Civilization in Iran in 1979 is also not equal to Western Christian/Jewish Civilization.
The way forwards is to help Islam reform towards Sufism’s God=Love with the other Abrahamics that previously reformed. The Crown Prince of the Kingdom did a great job of defanging Wahabbist Sunnis. The same needs to happen to the Shia End Times 12th Imam radical Jihadi NAZIs holding 90 million Persians hostage as human shields in Iran. Which is a Thugocracy, Not a Republic.
My mother, rest her soul, had a saying that my wife and I inject almost daily into our conversations about the world and the people we deal with: "If you can't be told, you can be shown."
This saying used to be good enough back before 24x7 propaganda and the decline of western thought across the entirety of our world. However, I think as her son I am allowed, if not obligated, to update the truism to something more apropos to the zeitgeist: "People simply cannot be told. They have to be shown."
I can understand Arnold Toynbee’s theory and it does seem to apply. However, there is "new creative minority" showing through the current madness. I am seeing creative ways to clean our food, water, our thinking, etc., that will remove the poisons for all to see truth, and allow all to live peaceful and joyful lives.
"American civilization is in a rapid decline". Make that WESTERN CIVILIZATION is in a rapid decline, and you'd have it just about right.
The barbarians are the Muslims bringing with them Muslim sharia law. And, who was it that first proposed that the Muslims migrate to other countries? It was the ruling elites.
The ruling elite who belong to the BILDERBERGERS, the DAVOS crowd, and the UNITED NATIONS. They have an agenda----erase sovereignty from every nation, and create 10 economical regions. They are using so-called "man-made global warming" and the barbarians to bring western civilization down. They need to have the shots to be able to alter the human DNA. Once the human DNA has been altered, a patent can be filed to declare ownership. Bill Gates has already filed the patent, it's called 060606, or something to that effect if memory serves me right. It was filed in the world patent court.
* just as a sidenote, check out the book of Revelation chapter 13.
What these diabolical leaders did not count on, was someone like yourself and Dr. McCullough actually telling the truth about the shots----they don't quite know what to do with you.
"Growth continues so long as the minority retains its creative vitality and inspires collective effort."
True. Yet may we define 'growth' as neither economic nor technological dominance but rather conscious human evolution toward wellness, sovereignty and peace?
How about striving for "better" instead of "more, more, more"?
That is a simple concept that could change the world!
"Fortunate Son" jumped into my mind when I wrote "more, more, more"!

I wonder if the Iranians will be as forgiving as the Vietnamese?

Right. As long as we define progress as economic growth we will continue to decline.
We can also think of the decline as growing old and dying, like any living system. Stanley Salthe writes about this. As a complex system grows old, it calcifies and becomes reactive trying to preserve its state rather than to adapt.

“just as a side note”, stop being a special kind of hypocrite and start applying the teachings and philosophy of Jesus.
God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son as a sin offering so you could have eternal life.
Have you repented of your sins, and asked Jesus Christ to come into your life Daniel?
Do you love your neighbor as yourself? Why are you so bitter?
Take the plank out of your eye, hypocrit.
And this suïcide is committed by the elite leaders of the civilization. Not on themselves of course, but on the people they were supposed to lead.
