Man Scouts of America

“The Scout goes by compass, both morally and navigationally and ventures only to glean the best of the whole. Mankind is dependent on The Scout. Information is The Holy Grail. Clarity is the Treasure! In our Scouts, our Rangers, the young men of the old, Mankind instills its faith.”

Non Nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed Nomini Tuo da gloriam


“In arrogance, there is great ruin and great instability. In idleness, there is loss and dire poverty, for idleness is the mother of famine.”

Book of Tobit 4:13

“Do not keep with you overnight the wages of those who have worked for you, but pay them at once. … Be on guard, son, in everything you do; be wise in all that you say, and discipline yourself in all your conduct. Do to no man or woman what you hate yourself.”

Lilli Tang Williams

She is a Lion. There is no middle class anymore. The upper-middle class has diminished to becoming lower-middle class.
The medium-middle class no longer exists; therefore, you are either lower-middle class (which is approximately 1% below poverty rate), welfare recipients (who are the coming denominator for the entire, middle class,”, and you have the Upper Class which is comprised of either aristocrats or their offspring.
The new, upper class does not earn money via producing a product or providing a service anymore. Their money is not earned income, but capital gains, which are compounding interest payments garnered from stored, uncirculated currency. The amount the upper class spends is calculated to be less than those interest payments, therefore, they never spend the principal; and since the interest is compounded, the principal grows of it’s mere existence, without reinvesting or diversifying. Big chunks of money just sit there to collect interest, and remain uncirculated. In other words, the offspring who is spending the money is not earning it; that money comes from the clouds, into their pockets, and; to collect it, all they have to do is wake up in the morning!

The Lower Class, to collect money, the need to work to earn it. Waking up is the easy part for the blue-collar worker. Collecting the money which belongs to them always seems to be the hard part.

Waking up for a Trust Fund Baby is the easy part, too; but paying the people who work for them seems to be the hard part for them, as well!

It’s called a, “Trust Fund,” it the above is the reason why your paycheck (on a monthly basis,) is approximately $2,600.00 LESS than you need to save, get ahead and live a better quality life.
It is not a mistake. There is a reason why the Federal Reserve is going to have to start paddling their canoe in the next four years; and what I just stated above is only part of the reason why!
Semper Fidelis!

“I came that they may have Life, and have it more abundantly.”

Humanity’s Problem

“A human heart throbs beneath the beggar’s gabardine; and that and no more stirs with its beating the Prince’s mantle. “

Treasures

“The great problem of Humanity is wrought out in the humblest abodes; no more than this is done in the highest.

A human heart throbs beneath the beggar’s gabardine; and that and no more stirs with its beating the Prince’s mantle.

The beauty of Love, the charm of friendship, the sacredness of Sorrow, the heroism of Patience, the noble Self-sacrifice, these and their like, alone, make life to be life indeed, and are its grandeur and its power.

They are the priceless treasures and glory of humanity; and they are not things of condition. All places and all scenes are alike clothed with the grandeur and charm of virtues such as these.”

When asking How to help others, she said,

In other words, you cannot help people who do not realize they need help, or do not want help.

All we can do is be the example of what we want others to be.

Snapshot

Mike Tyson on Fear

“’Cus used to get turned on when I told him that I was afraid and I might be a coward. He loved that. He knew that would feed into my fear base and he worked everything off fear. Cus wanted you to react like a robot so that when he said something, you’d do it on command. Cus showed me the difference between fear and intimidation. Being intimidated prevents you from performing at the highest level you’re capable of. But fear can help you ascend to great heights. ‘Be afraid of your opponent personally but don’t be afraid to hurt him,’ he told me. What people don’t realize is that when controlled properly fear can take you to a level of euphoria where you believe you’re invincible. Very few people can get to that level. But when you do, a weird aberration of nature takes place and you’re sent to a level of invincible proportion.’”

Darwin Says

” all observation
must be for or against some view
if it is to be of any service.”

“There was much talk that geologists ought only observe
and not theorize;
and I will remember someone saying
that at this rate,
a man might as well go into a gravel-pit
and count the pebbles and
describe the colors.

How odd it is
that anyone should not see
that all observation
must be for or against some view
if it is to be of any service.”

Charles Darwin 1861

Missing Provision

in the constitution,

“If a majority are capable of preferring
their own private interest,
or of their families,
counties and party to that of a nation
collectively,
some provision must be made in the constitution,
in favor of justice,
to compel all to respect
the common right,
the public good,
the universal law
in preference to all private
and partial considerations.”

John Adams

Rifleman’s Creed

“We are the masters of our enemy.”

This is my rifle.  
There are many like it,
but this one is mine.  
It is my life.  
I must master it as I must master my life.  
Without me my rifle is useless.  
Without my rifle, I am useless.        
I must fire my rifle true.  
I must shoot straighter than the enemy
who is trying to kill me.  
I must shoot him before he shoots me.  

I will.  

My rifle and I know that what counts in war
is not the rounds we fire,
the noise of our burst,
or the smoke we make.  
We know that it is the hits that count.  

We will hit.

      My rifle is human,
even as I am human,
because it is my life.  
Thus, I will learn it as a brother. 
 I will learn its weaknesses,
its strengths,
its parts,
its accessories,
its sights and its barrel.  
I will keep my rifle clean and ready,
even as I am clean and ready.  
We will become part of each other.
      Before God I swear this creed.  
My rifle and I are the defenders of my country.  

We are the masters of our enemy.  

We are the saviors of my life.

      So be it,

until victory is America’s
and there is no enemy.

The Status Quo Is Never The Final Solution

“Even from an emotionless, pure utilitarian position we should aspire to make a world as far from slavery as possible, where everyone has sufficient opportunity to achieve…”

“Today thousands of pure geniuses die unknown to the world in the infinite sweatshops out there.

Even from an emotionless, pure utilitarian position we should aspire to make a world as far from slavery as possible, where everyone has sufficient opportunity to achieve what they want.
This will benefit everyone from the fruits of innovation.

The economic institutions we maintained then, and even what we have now,
have prevented

The World Around Us

“…There is a secret In the simplest things, 
a wonder in the plainest…”


“A world of spiritual objects, influences,
and relations lies around us all.
We all vaguely deem it to be so;
but he only lives a charmed life,
like that of genius and poetic inspiration,
who communes with the spiritual scene around him,
hears the voice of the spirit in every sound,
sees its signs in every passing form of things,
and feels its impulse
in all action,
passion,
and being.

Very near to us lies the mines of wisdom;
unsuspected they lie all around us.
There is a secret In the simplest things,
a wonder in the plainest,
a charm in the dullest.”

The Occasion Always Comes to Us

“The hour of proving one’s self is always afoot!”
-Chip Van Hassel

“The million occasions
will come to us all,
in the ordinary paths of our life,
in our homes,
and by our firesides,
wherein we may act as nobly,
as if, all our life long,
we led armies,
sat in senates,
or visited beds of sickness and pain.
Varying every hour,
the million occasions will come
in which we may

restrain our passions,
subdue our hearts to gentleness
and patience,
resign our own interest for another’s advantage,
speak words of kindness and wisdom,
raise the fallen,
cheer the fainting and sick in spirit,
and soften and assuage the weariness and bitterness
of their mortal lot.”

PRINCE OF JERUSALEM.


XVI.

PRINCE OF JERUSALEM.

We no longer expect to rebuild the Temple at Jerusalem. To us it has become but a symbol. To us the whole world is God’s Temple, as is every upright heart. To establish all over the world the New Law and Reign of Love, Peace, Charity, and Toleration, is to build that Temple, most acceptable to God, in erecting which Masonry is now engaged. No longer needing to repair to Jerusalem to worship, nor to offer up sacrifices and shed blood to propitiate the Deity, man may make the woods and mountains his Churches and Temples, and worship God with a devout gratitude, and with works of charity and beneficence to his fellow-men. Wherever the humble and contrite heart silently offers up its adoration, under the overarching trees, in the open, level meadows, on the hill-side, in the glen, or in the city’s swarming streets; there is God’s House and the New Jerusalem.
