Eamonn Duffy: Moving Forward And The Future

Update Count: 5

1.     After much reflection, I still believe that there are 3 main types of "Body", for want of a better expression, acting out in the World:

a.     Security Services.

b.     Freemasons (for want of a better expression - elaborated below).

c.      Medical.

2.     I believe that, ultimately, Money and Power rule the world, in one form or another, even in China, with a heavy bias towards Money and Wealth.

3.     I believe that the general notion of "Freemasons" also exists and that they again, ultimately, control the World and Power.

4.     By "Freemasons" (hereafter referred to just as Freemasons, without quotes) I am referring to:

a.     Male-oriented Freemasons.

b.     Female-oriented Freemasons.

c.      Co-Freemasons.

5.     And I now also believe there may be a higher classification as follows:

a.     Freemasons who believe in God or a Higher Power (aka Believers).

b.     Freemasons who do not believe in God or a Higher Power (aka Non-Believers).

6.     It is possible that both of these Freemason classifications are somehow vying for and/or battling for control and supremacy.

7.     I wonder if I have somehow fallen between these two classifications and have even fallen foul of both.

8.     I do not believe that either Believer Freemasons or Non-Believer Freemasons are right, in and of themselves, as they currently stand.

9.     I believe that - moving forward - we may need to take the best of each group and work with them.

10.  We need people who believe in being good to and doing right by nature and mankind, for example.

a.     This includes, but is not restricted to, respecting and treating our fellow mankind well.

11.  Omnivores, Pescatarians, Vegetarians and Vegans (and any other classifications I have overlooked) need to work together and live in harmony.

a.     I do not believe that we should all become Vegetarian or Vegan, for example - I believe meat and animal products can be consumed if/as desired.

12.  I believe there should be a greater distribution of Wealth.

a.     I do not believe we should have Billionaires (or higher), for example.

b.     I believe there should be notional caps or limits on how much Wealth an individual or group can have, and anything that exceeds that should be distributed in Society, somehow.

13.  I believe we need to address housing/accommodation and particularly the ever-increasing cost of it, and the fact that people are now struggling to even rent accommodation (especially in Ireland, for example).

14.  In terms of dealing with each other, and in particular in terms of conflict resolution, I believe we should strive for people to endeavour to take Emotion out of all Situations, wherever and whenever possible.

15.  I believe that any advances in IT and Medical Technology that appear to be available should surely better be used to aid/assist mankind rather than subjugate them.

16.  I personally find it difficult to be dishonest and to lie in particular.

a.     I have believed for some time now that living by being totally honest with oneself first and then others second must surely be better than what I perceive to be a carrot and stick fear approach.

b.     This does entail admitting and accepting all aspects of one's psyche and being.

c.      I believe in honesty with oneself.

d.     I believe in honesty with others.

17.  I also believe now that we (i.e. Globally) may be going too far with Technology, for example, and we may need to take a step back in order to save both The Planet and mankind itself.
Examples:

a.     The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

b.     I believe we are focusing too heavily on Battery Technology and that this is ultimately potentially more harmful for The Planet than good (e.g. the production, recycling and disposal of Batteries are potentially very detrimental to The Planet).

                                                    i.     This includes, but is not restricted to, the fad of small battery-operated wireless headphones.

                                                   ii.     We should also pursue alternatives to Battery Technology, such as Hydrogen Fuel.

c.      Form over Function seems to have taken over - this certainly should be addressed as a matter of urgency, IMHO.

18.  I believe the provision of Clean Water as a basic requirement to all of mankind should be a priority.

19.  I believe that none of mankind should suffer serious hunger or famine.

20.  I believe in Education for all.

21.  I believe in Fairness, Justice and Equality.

22.  I believe in some form of Ethics and/or Morals.

23.  I believe that people should have the right to have Faith (e.g. in a Higher Power) and that no-one should be persecuted or discriminated against based on Faith.

24.  I believe in the appreciation of beauty in all it's forms.
