Heaven or Hell

Heaven or Hell

Where are they?

In True Buddhism, Heaven and Hell are NOT considered places where a person goes but instead are concerned conditions of life. Living in fear is a not feeling any of us want to experience but when sovereigns create or ignore laws that create more fear amongst their citizens it causes an uneasy overall feeling in people.

The Laken Riley murder was horrific. She was beaten and raped by a repeat felony offender, Jose Ibarra, 26, a Venezuelan citizen, who was in the United States illegally. Had federal immigration laws simply been enforced by the Biden administration the crime would have never happened and Laken would be continuing her studies to become a nurse. Nurses help others. Nurses are always ranked as the “most trusted and respected profession” in every survey of professions.

When called out in the 2024 State of the Union address, President Biden could not even say her name correctly. The lack of compassion was evident fairly evident to most of the world. He did though say, she was “killed by an illegal.”

Almost immediately the left was infuriated over Biden’s accurate use of the supposedly insensitive “illegal” for the murderer Ibarra. “Illegal alien” is the actual term used in the legal profession. Biden soon apologized for correctly identifying her killer as an illegal alien. He never apologized for misidentifying the victim, nor did ever contact the family.

The impression for many people was that he was more upset about offending his open-borders supporters than about the savage beating of a young 22-year-old American nursing student. For a lot of Americans irregardless of their political beliefs this behavior seemed far below what they expect in a President. It appears an open borders agenda supersedes any worry about the mounting number of Americans who have been victim to foreign gangs and criminals. He also seems oblivious to the nearly 100,000 plus Americans who have died from fentanyl imported across open borders. Most people believe the government just wants more people for cheap labor, others believe it is political agenda to have more representation in congress but whatever the reasons, in general, people are not happy.

What has happened to the humanists in the Democratic party? Nearly 100% of females, all ages, paying the cartels to cross the border are raped! How is this acceptable to anybody?

The Biden administration seems to think of governing as a means of mandating the use of electric vehicles, banning natural gas appliances, and a host of other programs. These measures are supposed to help save the environment. planet, yet because of their strict regulations on natural gas, which is cleanest petroleum product there is, the carbon footprint of the US has gone up dramatically!

Many radical people in government are telling us that biologically born males who transition to females have a civil right to compete in female sports. This transgender activism sounds compassionate yet thousands of women and teenage girls are put in danger by competing against the much larger musculoskeletal frames and natural strength of transitioning males.

Furthermore thousands of young female athletes are losing opportunities to excel in their chosen sport and set records. We are now wiping out over 50 years of women’s efforts to reach parity with men’s sports. Far worse is many girls are deciding to avoid sports.

The United Airlines president Scott Kirby, in 2021 bragged that his company was now devoted to ensuring that fifty percent of all trained pilots would be either people of color or women. The Federal Aviation Administration had similar diversity, equity, and inclusion mandates for hiring air traffic controllers.

In 2023, Boeing said that it was using “inclusion” as a criterion for executive compensation. Pay from now on would be calibrated in large part on the success of hiring new employees on the basis of their race, gender, and sexual orientation.

If there is any industry that should only use merit for hiring you would think it would be the airline industry!

But if subordination of meritocracy is “the law” without full attention to what really matter; the safety of the nearly 3 million American airline passengers who take 45,000 flights per day then most likely lives will be needlessly lost.

Statistics and recent anecdotal evidence suggest that something has now gone dangerously wrong with the entire airline industry. The incidents keep adding up. In January 2023, thousands of domestic flights were cancelled or delayed because of a series of Federal Aviation Administration computer problems. Over the last ten years, near-crashes and collisions of commercial flights have more than doubled. Even scarier, United Airlines suffered many near-catastrophic events that involved crew lapses, air traffic controller errors, or problems with actual Boeing aircraft construction or maintenance. Specific details have mysteriously and ironically been hidden from the public.

A United flight from San Francisco to Mexico had to make an emergency landing due to failing hydraulics. Another United flight bound for San Francisco from Sydney, Australia, had to return around due to a “maintenance issue.” Yet another flight out of Chicago O’Hare International Airport likewise suffered undisclosed “maintenance issues” and returned home. At Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport, a United plane simply taxied off the runway and got stuck in the grass. Another United flight from San Francisco lost a wheel while taking off! Yet another United flight from Houston to Florida was forced to make an emergency landing after one of its engines caught fire. At about the same time, a United flight bound for San Francisco from Hawaii experienced an engine failure in mid-flight. Dozens were injured on a Boeing jet during a Chilean airline flight from Australia to New Zealand due to what officials called “a technical event during the flight which caused a strong movement.”

It is becoming blatantly obvious that ideology and dogma have replaced pure merit, logic, and safety. Nearly daily now the results show up in a scary and dangerous way.

We need big changes and fast to protect the lives and aspirations of all its citizens, regardless of their race and gender.

If our leaders in government do not stop with mandates that cause more harm than good then they will surely ensure hell for more of us.
