…is shaped by the interaction between our various historical paradigm changes, and being stuck in the ongoing struggle between the only human historical phenomenon higher and more consequencial, namely a/the present human zietgiest, that is the human ethic of the age.
Our progress has been, and will continue to be grudging and minimal until we recognize that the beneficial effects of every historical paradigm change have always been an APPLIED aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace…and that the universally recognized superlative human ethic is also grace as in love/loving action.
Now, what is the present human zeitgiest/ethic of the age you may ask? Well, its Power, Profit and Control, and because the vast majority of individuals do not recognize this fact it is approaching Power, Profit and Control ONLY.
So what is the solution to this problematic and dangerous situation? Well, if you follow the facts and logic above, its acting toward and applying both personally and even more importantly systemically, the new zeitgiest of Grace As In Redeemed/Redemptive Power, Profit and Control.
Finally, where do we BEST start and supercharge this process? We find the relevant aspect(s) of grace and implement SYSTEMIC policies that CONTINUALLY evoke, ellicit and enable those aspects/experiences in our interactions with/participation in those systems, especially in systems that everyone must and does participate in, like for instance in the economy with a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale with the tool of money and the relevant aspect of grace, namely a 50% GIFT OF PRICE to the consumer and reciprocally the equivalent amount of GIFTED MONEY back to the merchant granting it to the consumer thus making the merchant whole on their entire price.
