Churchill was just as fu#$ing stupid as the next pol. National interest is turned into fascism and/or imperialism easily by Finance. Grace is the only real solution. Grace as in abundance as opposed to austerity. Grace as in Gifting/Free Gifting as opposed Loan only. Grace as in granting of beingness as opposed to xenophobia and intolerance. Grace as in equanimity as opposed to anger conflict and war. Grace as in Dynamic Balance, Equilibrium and Free Flowingness as opposed to stagnation, continual stress and being hung up in continual frustrated social conflict.
I know you know this Bob and agree with me. Hell, the Jews were the first ones in the West to talk about Grace, flow and Messiah. We just have to contemplate that, fully mentally flesh it out and apply it in policy….whether you’re religious or the world’s most devoted agnostic or atheist.
