Does the U.S. have the right to rule the world?

.Does the U.S. have the right to rule the world?

.by Carl Baydala

.

An honest question don't you think friends? Honest in the sense that we are asking a question about something that actually exists. That is to say that if you examine the current political and economic makeup of the world the U.S. maintains a central and strategic role. In fact, de facto, the U.S. is the ruler of the world - right now. I don't believe there is any other explanation for the current content of U.S. foreign policy, for example.

.

I don't think there is any question about it. I mean, if you look at U.S. foreign policy over the last few decades this is precisely what the U.S. is up to. It wants to control the world; all of its resources and all of its peoples. So, the only questions that remain are: does it have a right to do so and should we stand by and let it happen?

.

Well, in the first instance it does have a right to control the world if it has the will and the ability to execute its plans. I am sure that everyone is aware of the concept that might is right. What this idea means simply is that if you have the brute power to overcome and conquer your enemies by whatever means available to you then who is going to stop you? The U.S. is the only remaining Superpower in the world since the demise of the Soviet Union sometime ago - that competing empire simply collapsed during the Reagan Administration if you recall. The American Empire now has no competition and maintains a large system of military bases around to world to control and maintain its global ambitions.

.

The recent foray into the Middle East is no accident. If you believe in military dominance and ambition then you must realize that the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and ' beyond ' were simply meant to happen. They are the logical consequence of an empire wanting to expand its influence and control. With the collapse of the Soviet Union a large gaping hole was left open in the oil rich regions of the the Middle East and Central Asia. Now, the U.S. being a militaristic and ambitious nation was not about to let this opportunity get away - and it did not.

.

We are now aware of things like Neocons and their ambitious schemes to rule the world by full military presence. We have heard of concepts like ' Full Spectrum Dominance ' and ' The Project for the New American Century '. Not only are these concepts and ideas of military global aspirants, but they have now become real things. The U.S. engages now in war as a full-time occupation. The Military Industrial Complex and its spokesmen can easily acquire the necessary billions of dollars from subservient presidents and willing members of Congress. The money comes more easily now, especially with the advent of 9/11 and the so-called ' War on Terror. "

.

Like many, I have often wondered if 9/11 was a planned event, something conjured up by the Neocons themselves or by some other ' inside ' group of individuals who might prosper as a consequence of the attack. It would certainly explain a lot about American foreign policy if the attack was planned from within, or even capitalized upon by just ' Letting it Happen. ' We do not really know who did 9/11 to this very day. Could 19 Muslim hijackers, with very little aviation skills or planning and coordinating abilities pull it off? The evidence seems to go against the idea, especially when you consider the number of things that had to go right to make it happen. And, then there is all of the curious data that has emerged since the event itself. Some have even suggested that Coincidence Theory reigns over Conspiracy Theory for getting to the bottom of the event and supplying an adequate explanation. There are simply too many questions related to this event to allow anyone to make any kind of definitive opinion on the issue, but many are valiantly trying to do just that. And, the problems that do emerge from any enquiry only add more fuel to the fire, and in fact, suggest foul play. And, this foul play, whatever its origins and intentions has most definitely benefited a certain group of individuals. And, those individuals most particularly, are those engaged in the business of war and in world domination. So, whether 9/11 was mere opportunity or something contrived to satisfy a result becomes less of an issue when you consider the great benefits to those who prosper from war and want to control other regions of the world and destroy enemies and the enemies of their friends. 9/11 did the trick and a good opportunist is not going to stand by and let an opportunity go by the wayside. And, maybe this fact alone should allow the Neocons and their militaristic friends to control the reins of world government and all of the economic power that it entails.

.

The U.S is not only a vast military power but it has other means at its disposal as well. I have already mentioned how easy it is to acquire money for war. Presidents and members of Congress do not seem to bother with notions that war is bad or that the U.S. should not be a global power. They are all on board and believe in the idea of Empire. The bankers who gain from war are not going to argue about the issue and will simply create more money should the need arise. And, there are also those who gain from the current economic setup as well. Globalization has brought nations like China, Japan, and the other Asian manufacturers on board. They are the buyers of the U.S. debt that must be purchased for the Empire to continue on as it does. And, the game does continue, albeit somewhat unwillingly at times. But, continue it must. The recent financial crisis, for example, has brought to light just how powerful the Empire has become as well. The Empire, and its allies the bankers, caused a great deal of stress for the world to contend with, but with little dismantling of the Empire at all. Recessions and depressions can be managed. Lest we forget that that the bankers are the people who handle the multitude of transactions based on the U.S. dollar, the world's reserve currency. It is the job of the bankers, and the central bankers, to keep this dollar as strong as possible. Economic integration and war are means by which control is maintained. Success in war and punishing detractor states is an indication of Empire strength. And, it is all in aid of course for dollar dominance and total economic control. For, when the dollar itself collapses then the very idea of Empire and global dominance is put into jeopardy. U.S. politics and military ambitions mean that the militarists and the bankers must work together to keep the system afloat. They have to do whatever they can to prove to the world that the banking system is viable, that the dollar is strong, and that the U.S. Empire can continue to do what it wants to do. If foreign nations continue to buy U.S. debt then that is all of the proof that you will ever need to the game will continue and that the U.S. and its allies will continue to rule the world.

.

Another player that helps the U.S. Empire maintain its dominance is the controlled media. You will never hear a bad word about war from this part of the system. They are totally on board and will do whatever they can to portray the idea that whatever the U.S. military and government does is for the benefit of the people and nation of the U.S. The fact that the middle classes are going backwards and losing their jobs and their futures means little or nothing when you are fighting a War on Terrorism. The debt, now increasing by the trillions is a necessary cost of doing business. It is the job of the media to sell this idea as well as others, such as the bank bailouts, for example. Supposedly, the bank bailouts were executed to save the nation from financial Armageddon and to preserve the financial system as we know it. That is what the bankers and the politicians who work for them want us to believe. It is the job of the media to keep the game going and they are doing a very admirable job indeed. Either through censorship or biased reporting they get the job done. They are simply part of the propaganda team. The only detractors of course seem to be the players on the internet and in the alternative media. But, what concern are they when they have already elected a government that is totally beholding to the idea of Empire and the prosecution of war. They matter not - for the moment.

.

I am trying to paint a picture for you friends that aids the idea that the U.S. does really have a right to be the only Superpower in the world. They have earned that right, by their actions and by their ability to keep the system moving in their direction, by wealth and by stealth. They have devised an economic system that works for them. If other countries want to prosper then they must continue to play the game. They must continue to buy U.S. debt and they must not get overly troubled by overt and covert imperialism. There must be some kind of a payoff to all to adhere to the system. If the controllers of government can devise methods whereby they get people elected who will do what they want then who is to say that the globalists should not be leading a government of the world? Certainly no U.S. citizen that is for sure. If they are going to keep on voting for people who conduct war as a way of life and who believe in global dominance then isn't the electorate getting what they deserve and want? I am not not hearing any great clamoring from the masses that something is wrong and that they want dramatic change and end to world dominance and the current structure of things. Are you hearing such things coming from the media? Shouldn't they be the voices of discontent if they sense that something is amiss? Shouldn't they be on the lookout for the welfare of the public? Isn't that one of their primary functions and the reason why we allow them to stay in business? One would think so now wouldn't one? But, what do we have instead? Why, we have a completely complicit and non-productive media apparatus; it serves interests other than public ones. Well, isn't that the point of the whole thing friends? That the voices of those who are against the system as we have come to know it are like farts in the wind? What does the system care about those with no power? It cares not, nor should it care. The people get what they deserve. It has always been like that and forever shall be into the future. I trust, that, in a round about way, I have answered my opening questions for you

Friends, here is a great set of videos by John Perkins. You may remember him from the " Confesssions of an eonomic hit man " fame. Well, here he is again detailing for us the role of the " Corporatocracy " in the fulfillment of U.S. imperialism throughout the globe. Somebody has to do the job right? Well, if it isn't big gobs of payoff money  or the jackals, then it is the US military that does the job of controlling the countries of the world. At any rate, the U.S. is still in charge of the world and these following three videos and Mr. John Perkins will explain why:

The Fairness of Unfairness

So, tell me. Do you feel like you are in a rut or do you feel like life is going well for you? That is the general way of things is it not? I mean, one day you feel like you are on top of the world and you are working toward some goal or another and everything seems to be just fine. And, then there other times when you feel down and out or that things are just boring and a waste of time. Life may even feel like a drudgery for you. Well, life can be many different things at different times that is for sure. So, what is the trick to this madness I wonder? The thing about life is that it is all in the cards; life gets to deal the cards and you are forced to play the hand that was dealt to you. I think this is the only logical way to look at life actually. You have to be able to take the good with the bad and that is the simplicity of the thing. So, that means that there will good times and it also means that there will be bad times. You just have to accept what comes your way and go with the flow so to speak. Now, maybe some of you want to be rich and famous or maybe others want to fall in love with a a special person or whatever. Well, it doesn't really matter what you wish for because some things just are not attainable. I mean, some things are just so unreasonable that they are not going to happen. Like believing in God for example. A lot of people believe in God, but what do you think is going to happen to them when the big day finally comes and they find out one way or the other? I do not know what is going to happen and that is why I do not spend a lot time believing that God exists. It is simply foolhardy behaviour. Just like dreaming about princes and riches and the like. If you are going to dream I say just dream about things that could realistically come true, if you have to dream that is. I think the best overall philosophy though is to just take things as they come, and day by day at that. You cannot predict the future, no, not even one day in advance. Just like I cannot predict the outcome of even one race at the racetrack. I can wish and hope and dream that I am going to win, but I have no control over the event itself. Some things just are beyond our control and we have to accept that. You cannot control the weather and you cannot control or predict a person's behavior from one day to the next either. So, it all sounds rather impossible now doesn't it? And, yet you might retort and ask: well now, how come there are so many rich and famous people around and why cannot I be like them? And, well I am on the topic how come I cannot win a million bucks in a lottery and just retire and do nothing? Yeah, how come other people seem so lucky or fortunate all of the time? When is it going to be my turn to participate in the good life? Now, these are honest questions that need to be answered of course. But, I have already answered the question for you now haven't I? Of course I have. I have already told you here and in other places that life is not fair.
.
Is is fair that life is unfair?
.
Another good question of course. Of course it is not fair and that is the whole point of the thing. But, there is a way out of the morass of course and that is to become a philosopher. That is why people study philosophy you know. They want to understand things and they want to put their lives into perspective and they want answers for everything. And, if you study philosophy you will be able to form your own life view and figure things out to your very own personal satisfaction. And, once you study philosophy and the views of the great men and women then you will come to know about things like fairness and unfairness. And, hopefully, if you are successful at philosophy you will discover some kind of method to deal with the inequities of life.
.
I think understanding is one of the best lessons that comes out of philosophy actually. You are you because you are you is the best way that I can explain things for you. You were born into a certain situation at a certain time. You were given things and circumstances that may be unique to your station in life. And, you were born with certain gifts of physical and mental capacities. Some of you were seemingly more favoured than others. Some were born into poor families and others into wealthy ones. In other words dear friends you were dealt a hand of cards that were unique to your situation in life. And, now you are forced to play those cards. And, you must play them in the best way that you know how. But, the point is that you must continue to play them. You have to play them to the best of your ability and the people around you will respect you for that aspect of your life. They will come to know that you are doing the very best job that you could do with the cards that you were dealt. And, as I say you will be respected. So, I think that is the mark of a successful personality actually, that one plays the cards that he is dealt in the best way that he or she can. I think that if you stick to this principle then you are well on the way to living a successful life.
.
I have told you that life is unfair and it was not meant to be otherwise, but in that unfairness is a built in fairness. And, this is the philosophy friends. In that unfairness is the built-in capacity of every person to achieve what they can achieve within the context of the cards that they were dealt to them. That is the fairness. We are all free and equal in this regard. Life gave us the fairness to participate with what we have. Yes, life provided the conditions, but it also provided the means to deal with those conditions; it provides the fairness mechanism. And, you can be successful if you follow this rule, and you will survive, and you might even prosper as well. And, where does the prosperity come from you may now enquire? The prosperity comes from the happiness of the endeavour. There are a lot of happy people who have no material goods you know. You know what I mean, certain religious people and the like. They have come to know that not all happiness is achieved through monetary and physical success. There is more to life than materialism and vanity and that kind of thing. And, if you stick to your knitting and accept what you are and what you have then you will be a very happy person indeed. Others will come to know that you are happy because you have accepted your fate and you are being successful at what you are doing and what you have. Just keep healthy and do the kinds of things that any rational person would do. And, keep smiling as well. Others will come to know of your happiness and will appreciate you for what you are. Now, the curious thing about life is that it changes day by day. Sometimes luck just falls into ones lap; you might win a lottery or even win some kind of big race at the racetrack if you are a gambler for example. Yes, you just might get lucky. Good things do happen for no apparent reason sometimes. This is the element of luck in life. And, you must be ready to receive your luck when it comes your way. And, it is the same thing with opportunity as well. And, rest assured that opportunity comes in many forms as well. And, opportunity does not play favourites either. Opportunity happens every day and in all places. So, learn about what an opportunity is because this is a key thing that can make you even happier than you are now, in your current situation, that is. This is the business of life friends - fairness and unfairness and all the rest. But, life can be lived and lived successfully as I am trying to point out to you. Just be yourself and appreciate luck when it lands in your lap, but most importantly I think, do not fail to notice an opportunity, large or small. Because opportunities really are the life changers. They can be sexual ones and they can be monetary and material ones. They can be anything, but learn how to spot them, that is the key. So, know them and grab on to them when they come your way. And, when you do that I think you will find that you will come to have a different kind of perspective on life as regards to this business of fairness and unfairness.

Characters: Katy and Carl
.

Act Six: Scene One

.

Setting: Hotel Room

.

Katy and Carl are lying in bed the morning after their wedding. Katy is crying and is waking up from a dream. She crawls out from under the blanket that is covering both her and Carl and heads towards the bathroom. She then stands naked in front of the mirror and looks at herself. Carl wakes up and sees her standing there.

.

Carl: " I heard you crying Babe is there anything wrong?

.

Katy: " No, Honey, its nothing really I was just having one of those stupid dreams again. You know how it is, they just make me cry that's all. "

.

Katy grabs a towel off the side of the wall and wraps it around her neck like a scarf and then does a pirouette and the scarf is flying about in the air. Katy is enjoying herself immensely and begins to sing a song...

"...It's you and me Moving at the speed of light into eternity.....

Tonight is the night To join me in the middle of ecstasy......

Feel the melody and the rhythm of the music Around you, around you.......I'ma take you there ...

We can go anywhere, go anywhere.......But first, it's your chance, take my hand, come with me.....

It's like I waited my whole life for this one night.

It's gon' be me, you and the dance floor.

Cause we only got one nightDouble your pleasure, double your fun.....

And dance forever-ever-everForever-ever-everForever-ever-everForever(Forever)Ever-ever-everForever-ever-everForever-ever-everForever on the dance floorFeels like were on another level...... " *

.

she stops singing and asks Carl a question....

.

Katy: " What do you think Honey...is it me? "

.

Carl: " Babe, anything could be you. If you were wearing a sack it would be you. I would love you no matter what you wore. Surely you know that. When a guy loves a woman it really doesn't matter what she is wearing. Her beauty is enough for any man. ...by the way Babe, you sound great when you are singing....it's good to see you happy like that...."

.

Katy: " That's sweet of you Honey. I'm only singing because I am happy that's all. "

.

Katy then takes the towel and wraps it around her head so that her hair is covered.

.

Katy: " This is what the Muslim girls do Carl so that they will not excite the men. Is it working? "

.

Carl: " I guess it might have a chance of working if you covered the rest of you Babe. "

.

Katy: " Silly me. Of course. " She then grabs another towel and wraps it around her body so that is covered......

" So how is that? "

.

Carl: " Nice job. But, like I said I would like you no matter what you did. I know what is under there Babe. For me, anyway, it just makes you look more sexy. You are a sexy woman Katy so there is no sense in trying to hide it. Maybe the religious girls think they are pulling something off, but it won't work with me that is for sure. "

.

Katy: " Yes, I suppose you are right. Sex is just so ingrained in our culture now isn't it? Anyway, speaking of sex how did you enjoy are love making last night?

.

Carl: " Katy you are the best damn woman in the world and I am glad I married you. Of course the sex was great, what did you expect me to say anyway? "

.

Katy: " Well, there is a lot more where that came from Honey so don't you fret about that. What my man wants he gets. No questions asked. "

.

A big smile appears on Carl's face and he sits up in bed.

.

Carl: " Wow, that is a pretty impressive philosophy Babe what brought this on? "

.

Katy: " Oh just a bit of common sense I suppose. Something I learned over the years I guess and my relations with people - and with men. We are what we are Honey so there is no sense in trying to change things. That is the way I have things figured out. '

.

Carl: " Lucky for me I suppose. I mean, I don't have to pretend that I like sex or anything like that. '

.

Katy: " Not on my watch Honey. You are my man and what my man wants he receives. ...but, speaking of sex Honey I have decided that we should have a child right away, and maybe two. Yes, I think two should cover it. I mean, that is the real reason for sex anyway isn't it? It is just a practical device after all. "

.

Carl laughing: " You're the boss Babe, so did you want to get started right away? I am not doing anything at the moment. ...Anyhow, while you are up Honey could you grab me a beer from the fridge and a glass too? "

.

Katy: " You are a funny man Carl Baydala I guess that is why I picked you and no one else. There will be lots of time for that.... "

She takes two beer out of the fridge. One for Carl and one for herself. She takes a couple of clean glasses off the counter and moves towards the bed and sits down beside Carl. She passes him a beer and continues talking...

...I am just saying that I think we should start planning for that right away - to have children, I mean. And, I even have some names picked out too. I think Ida would be a good name for a girl, and maybe Matt for the boy. "

.

Carl: " Are those Biblical names Babe, they sure sound like they are right out of the Bible. You know, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, that kind of thing. "

.

Katy: " Not exactly Honey. Just think of them as destiny names. I was having this dream and in the dream were these names. And, they were Ida and Matt. In fact, I guess I should tell you that the reason I decided to marry you was because of a dream too. Maybe you have seen that wedding video on the internet. Well, then again maybe you haven't. It doesn't matter anyway...anyhow that's another story... I think you can see, I am a very honest person and I want you to know absolutely everything there is to know about me."

.

Carl: " Do tell me more, now you have got me interested. You mean that I am just a result of your dreams...of your fantasies? "

.

Katy: " Oh no, nothing like that. Don't be silly. I mean, dreams are important things you know. Dreams are part of your consciousness and thinking and that kind of thing. They are part of reality really, just a separate part that is all. So, I think that we should pay a lot of attention to dreams so what do you think about that? '

.
Carl: " Fair enough I suppose. Yeah, I have dreams too you know. Like, I lost track of how many times I thought of you in my dreams. Well, I guess dreams really do come true then. "

.

Katy: " Now you are on to it. That is what dreams really are. They are just manifestations of our will that is all; you know, of our inner desires. Maybe you have even read about some of these philosophers. A lot of them talk about the will and that indescribable thing known as will being responsible for everything. Maybe that is the key to the whole of our understanding. ... And, maybe this is where all of our ideas come from too. Ideas live and are born in the mind - our brains Honey. Who knows where they come from originally, but that is where they live, that is for sure. Oh, it is such an interesting topic Carl I hope you don't mind me carrying on like this. "

.

Carl: " Why would I mind? According to your philosophy that would be dumb.... I think it is a small price to pay for all the sex that you say that I am going to be getting anyway. Why wouldn't I pay attention? "

.

Katy: " Funny boy. "

.

Carl: " How come you never responded to my marriage calls until now? I mean what held you back, from your destiny as you call it? And, now that I think about it, you sure know a lot about ideas and that kind of thing. "

.

Katy: " Well, I guess I just wasn't ready for marriage. I mean, you can't just get married because you say you want to get married and be damned with the consequences. I mean, it has to feel right. The person you are marrying has to understand and love you. For what you are, I mean. I mean, you telling me that you would love me if I was wearing a sack is exactly the kind of thing that I want to hear. That tells me that you really do love me Carl and that is why I know that I made the right decision. You have to be comfortable with the whole idea. There is that word idea again. Oh my! "

.

Carl: " So, I mean, this sex thing doesn't bother you that much. I mean, you must know how some guys just think about sex all of the time, like it was their job or destiny or something. "

.

Katy: " Not at all. Like I told you earlier, sex actually does have a function. It is practical. Most girls are interested in sex too you know so don't think that guys are the only experts in this area. They don't own sex even though they might think they do. Plus, sex is the basis for eternity. So, I guess that is why the Christian god invented the thing, according to the Bible, I mean. How else were man and woman going to come together anyhow? I mean, they would just be standing there like stupid blobs wondering what to do with one another and wondering why they were placed on Earth. So, all in all I think God had a pretty decent idea, when He invented sex, that is. He did it for the animals and man and everything living thing. I think man might just be a metaphor for eternity Carl and not much more than that. '

.

Carl: " You think God invented sex. Do you really believe that? "

.

Katy: " Yes, I do and I am not even religious, like you think of religious people, I mean. I think sex just had to be invented anyway. I mean, what is sex anyhow? Well, let me answer that for you because I am sure you are interested. "

.

Carl: " Holy cow Katy, you really are some kind of a philosopher. I thought I had done a lot of thinking in this area, but it looks like you are no slouch at all...please continue on but, didn't you just answer your own question anyhow..."

.

He was thinking that he had really hit the jackpot marrying this girl. She was a goddamn philosopher and an expert. He knew now that their marriage was going to have something to keep it afloat and that it would last. This was not just some simple physical sexual or lustful union, a common marriage. This girl had her act together. He wanted to get to the bottom of her philosophy. She liked sex, she liked drinking beer and she wanted to figure everything out. Christ, she was beautiful. Maybe she was even made in Heaven, if there was a Heaven, that is.

.

Katy: " Well, to continue on. Yes, sex and marriage and having babies, well that is just the way eternity works. How can you understand eternity if you don't know what it is composed of....are you following me? "

.

Carl: " I guess so. So, God, even though He is criticized quite a bit, really did have some good ideas then. If I am understanding what you are saying, I mean."

.

Katy: " That's right. God was playing by the rules of eternity. He was playing ball so to speak. He created a metaphor that you and I, His creations, can understand. He provided meaning for us. And, as humans that is what we try to do, namely try to figure the whole thing out before we die. "

.

Carl: " But, you know Katy, there are those who would criticize this God business. Like it is all just fantasy talk and the like. And, how come you are not upset that you got the short end of the man woman relationship according to God. He made you guys second class you know, I mean subservient to man. You women are forced to obey and serve man. That is your destiny according to the Bible you know. I know that if I was a woman I wouldn't put up with nonsense like that. I would reject that god in an instant. "

.

Katy: " And, you would be a fool in the process of doing that too. "

.

Carl: " How can you say that. I mean you guys, you girls, are doomed to play some meagre, secondary role throughout eternity. "

.

Katy: " Don't you believe that for a second Mr. Baydala. Not one tiny second.. Do you think that you are better than me, because you are a male, I mean?"

.

Carl: " Of course not. I respect you for just what you are. A thinking, breathing female. Second class. Not on your life. "

.

Katy: " Well, then there you are. I guess God isn't so powerful after all now is He? Think of it this way Honey. If either one of us wanted to have a baby what would we have to do? "

.

Carl: " Well, I guess we have to rely on our partners to participate. I mean, you need both a female and male to produce a baby right? So, I suppose both are equally as powerful. They need one another, nobody is any better than the other one. I guess that is what I have against some of these modern religions though. They seem to segregate women and men, like they were different or something. "

.

Katy: " Only in the sex department Carl. Only in the sex parts. Remember, the Christian god created lust and sin and that is a pretty hard thing for most people to get over. They live with these things and struggle with it in their lives and in their marriages. They think of each other as mere sex objects. Do you think that I am just an object of sex for you? Is that all you want from me? "

.

Carl: " Of course not Babe, you are much more than that to me. You are a very special woman. I can see that in an instant. And, you might even be the perfect woman, if such a thing exists. Katy, you take a relationship to a whole new level. You bring meaning to my marriage and I mean that. "

.

He pulls her closer to him and kisses her

.

Katy: " Of course Honey, there is more to marriage than just sex. And, thank you for acknowledging that I might just be the perfect woman. I kind of like that idea. It has a certain ring of destiny to it. ( Katy laughing ) And, while we are the topic of ideas again maybe this marriage thing has to be considered in its totality to be really appreciated. I think marriage really is just some kind of metaphor Honey, a union message. Sure sex is part of it, but what else is part of it? I mean what is the essence of marriage when you get right down to it? Two people coming together because of physical desire. I mean do you think that is what it is all about, just that? If that was the case then why bother even getting married? There are other methods by which to acquire sex if that is somebody's objective. You know Honey, I just think that there is some kind of purpose to this universe of ours and if I believe that then I am talking about some kind of will as well. I mean, that is what the philosophers are always jabbering about aren't they? Do you really think that all of reality is just nature like so many believe, that everything is a just a product of raw, random events. Like God or some idea is not part of the picture?

.

Carl: " I have never been a strong God guy Katy, just for the record, I mean. Like the Christian God. I just don't buy it. I think nature doing the job on her own is a pretty compelling case. The only thing that fouls it up of course is this idea business. I know that lots of people think that idea and God is paramount, but I don't subscribe to that view at all. There is no purpose in nature Honey, not even in man. He just evolved that's all. The evidence is pretty clear on that point. "

.

Katy: " Well, I am trying to tell you that you don't have to buy it, or that form of it anyway. And, forget about nature being the supreme thing here as well. But, at least you are buying into the notion of idea. That is the positive thing. You know that there are two basic things in the universe Honey, and one of them is the existence of ideas and the other is matter which we all know about of course. And, neither of them can exist without the other. You know that right.... "

.

He nods in agreement.

.

Katy continues......." You just have to believe that there are forces for good in the world and, in fact, the whole universe. We all want to be happy right and live forever, if it was possible I mean, And, the only reason that we want to do that is because we know how wonderful things can be, when they are going our way that is. That is where the concept of eternity comes from Honey. Nature cannot produce a concept now can it? Man believes in eternity because he believes in the idea of happiness and pleasure lasting forever. And, sex is only part of that pleasure, it is the physical part; it is not the important portion, but only the introductory part - the get to know you side of things. The part that we can experience emotionally. Our bodies gave us that ability to feel good, but our minds explain it for us - our ideas do all of the heavy lifting Honey. But, where you might enquire did the idea come from to make all of this happen?

.

Carl: " Don't know for sure Babe. I don't want to rain on your parade but some people think that matter can actually produce ideas though. Just for the record, I mean. "

Katy: " Well, man only knows about two things,and one of them better than the other, and that is not saying much according to some philosophers either. There is the part that we experience here on Earth and then there is the unknown or metaphysical part. You know, the part where we believe that gods exist, as ideas I mean. "

.

Carl: " Yeah, I got that part figured out already Babe. "

.

Katy: " Anyhow, some people believe that there are some eternal ideas that only have to be discovered. You know, like Goodness, Beauty, Truth and that kind of thing. The philosopher Plato told us a lot about these things. But, they are really just philosophical things because nobody has ever really found or touched these things. We just talk about them and imagine them as being real and perfect and findable even. "

Carl: " Kind of like me finding you - the perfect woman. "

.

Katy laughing: " Yes that is absolutely correct. I am Carl Baydala's perfect woman. Now you are talking! And, how would you describe your perfect woman Sir? "

.

Carl: " Now, that is a simple thing to answer. I would just point at you and say that Beauty or Perfection herself is right beside me. And, who is going to disagree with me? "

Katy: " I suspect the person who has different ideas than you as to what constitutes beauty and perfection. Is that not correct?

.

Carl: " And, I would call them a liar and inform them that they do not know what they are talking about. That is what I would do."

.

Katy: " And, you would be defending my honour then and my integrity as something akin to perfection? "

.

Carl: " Indeed I would. "

.

Katy: " And, you would be engaging in a battle of ideas then in my defense? "

.

Carl: " Correct again. I would tell everyone that here is a physical specimen of a woman who just happens to be perfect in every manner that a gentleman expects a woman to be perfect in. You would qualify as perfection. For not only are you a physical beauty, but you are possessed of sound philosophical knowledge as well. And, I would further tell them that you have an intimate knowledge of practical ideas as well. For when you talk you make sense. Even on matters of sexuality you make emminent good sense. Only a perfect woman could be able to function in such a manner. "

.

Katy: " And, that is why I picked you as my husband Carl Baydala because I knew that you appreciated me and my characteristics, or essences if you will. You do know and appreciate perfection when confronted with it and I commend you on that score. Now, the problem with general mankind is that some of them cannot appreciate me for what I am and what I represent, whereas you have already proven yourself in that regard. You are qualified to by my partner Carl Baydala since you understand and appreciate me.

.

Carl: " Well, now that we are the same page what do we do now?

.

Katy: " I suppose we could go about the business of creating those two offspring which I was talking about earlier, you know, someone to carry on the tradition of perfection, so to speak

Carl: " A sterling idea. "

.

Act Five: Scene One

.

Setting: Ida and Matt's bedroom.

.

Characters: Ida and Matt

.

Ida and Matt are lying in bed talking about the wedding and getting ready to go to sleep .
.

Ida: " That sure was a beautiful wedding wasn't it Hon? "

.

Matt: " You bet Babe. Boy, you sure showed that Jehovah what you are made of. I am very proud of you Babe for pulling the whole thing off. I know what you told me about what you really did, but that doesn't matter. Everybody thinks you have great powers Honey and that is all that counts. It's the cosmetics Honey, yeah that's what it is. And, you did a damn fine job. Everybody in that hall was just impressed and so was I. Great job Honey. "

.

He kisses Ida

.

Ida: " Oh, come on Babe it wasn't that big of a deal you know. The important thing is that Katy and Carl are finally married, and well, they have a chance to change their world and make it a better place. They have the understanding now. Katy knows things that other girls don't know and I am counting on her to influence other people. That is partly why I picked her you know, because of her charisma, determination, and her ability to influence other people. She is a great role model you know. Anyway, just to change topics a bit, I have an idea Honey. "

.

Matt: " I'm sure you do Babe. "

.

Ida laughing: " Don't be silly. This is serious Matt. I want to have a baby. "

.

Matt: " What? What are you talking about. I mean, I never thought about us having....children...you mean like a little god or goddess, that we create, just the two of us?"

.

Ida: " Yeah, that's right, just like Jehovah's creations. If He can make creations then why can't we? Do you know all about that kind of thing Matt and how it works? "

.

Matt: " I know only what you tell me Babe and what I learn by myself of course, which isn't much. That is the extent of my knowledge. Is there something that I don't know about humans..are you holding out on me Honey? "

...He begins to laugh.

.

Ida grabs hold of Matt and pulls him closer to her and she looks him in the eyes.

.

Ida: " Matt, when I am naked and you look at me what do you think about? "

.

Matt: " Think about Babe. I am not sure what you mean. When I look at you I just think of Beauty. It is the same thing as when I listen to music. It just makes me feel good. I think of good things and being happy. What else is there? I just want to hold you that's all. The more I hold you the better I feel. You should know that Babe. Like when you put your arms around Mr. Schopenhauer, you could see how good he felt. He must of seen Beauty too. Beauty does exist Honey, and well, you are just like Beauty. There is something about your body that just soothes the soul. Yeah, the soul Babe, you know, my inners. The very reason for existence. You must be Beauty. So, when I am experiencing Beauty, well, like I said, I am just happy. And, that is how you make me feel. You just have the knack that's all Babe. You make people happy. "

.

Ida: " That's fine Honey I am glad you feel that way about me because that is want I want you to experience. My Beauty, I mean. These are the things that I taught you and that is a good thing. You know Honey, before we were married we were nothing without each other. You know that I hope. And, that is why I married you. It is destiny that we are together. And, even tonight's events are part of destiny. Katy and Carl are part of destiny. I know you don't really know about that kind of thing and understand it like I do. But, what I am saying Matt is that us coming together as we have is just so important. I mean, you would not even be able to experience anything at all without me. You know that right? Anyway, You are matter Matt and I am idea, and well, we just need each other for our continued existence that is all. Are you following me Babe? "

.

Matt: " I guess so Honey. You know, sometimes I even have my own ideas . I mean, separate and apart from the kinds of ideas that you told me about. "

.

Ida: " Yes, Honey I am aware of that and that is a good thing too. You can even have your very own ideas. But, all of your ideas start with me so never forget that. The important thing though is that you were influenced by my ideas first, that is the crtical thing. But, your ideas that you develop on your own will always be different than mine Honey. Do you know why that is? "

.

Matt: " Not really Babe, but I am sure you are well on the way to explaining things for me, like you always do of course. "

.

Ida: " Thanks Babe, for the compliment. Matt there really is a basic difference between us you know. Idea and matter, I mean. I am pure idea, and you are, well, your ideas are based on your experiences so that makes them really personal things, they are your things and no one elses. Well, we just experience things differently, that is the main difference. Because you are composed of matter Matt, well that means something, and it means a lot. I am not all muddled up because of matter like you are Babe. When we became separated, and I am talking about all matter and ideas as a totality, well, matter lost its powers to think independently like I am still able to do. I can influence you directly Honey, but you cannot do that to me, at least on the same level as me anyway. Do you understand? Idea gods are different and we just seek out matter because that is where we are the most comfortable and creative. And, we know that you need us. Like, when Jehovah created Earth and man and all of the things that He did there. He was seeking out matter to express himself. His personality is plastered all over the planet Earth. He did he best thing that He knew how. He brought Earth and Himself together by planting His ideas there. You are starting to get the idea aren't you Matt? '

.

Matt: " I am not sure if I am following you Babe. "

.

Ida: " Well, way back in the beginning of time and the dawn of all creations and all things, well, everything was just ONE. There was no difference between ideas and matter. We were all the same thing. But, we got separated and that caused friction in the universe and it affected the will of everybody and everything. And, it also affected our powers as well. And, matter became estranged Matt, like you. You were not able to think on your own anymore because you were so distant and separated from ideas, things like me. Get it?... That is why it is natural for things to come together, like you and me, or even Katy and Carl. These are natural things and they should happen. It is destiny. Remember how important destiny is Matt? "

.

Matt: " I am beginning to get the idea Babe. Please continue. "

.

Ida: " Well, everything is destiny Babe. That is the absolute best way to understand everything. Like tonight and me and Jehovah. It was destined to happen and that is why it happened, otherwise it would not have happened. Simple. Like you and me talking right now about the very things that we are talking about. It was all pre-arranged; it was meant to happen. Period. "

.

Matt: " Are you sure Babe. Are you one hundred per cent sure? ".

Ida: " Of course. But, let me continue please. Like I said, in the beginning all was ONE. And, this was the development of ideas and even consciousness too. You know what I mean, people being able to think about themselves and their situation. Do you know what thinking is Matt? :

.

Matt: " Sure Babe. That is me knowing that I am looking at you and talking to you. "

.

Ida: " But, you don't really know if I am real or not do you? Remember when I mentioned Bishop Berkeley and how I love that man? Well, he is the fellow on Earth who championed this idea that everything is just ideas. I guess that is why I love him so, because he knows how important I am. His only mistake was that he figured that it was Jehovah who was responsibe for all of the ideas in the minds of man. That is his big mistake, but I will not hold that against him since he was right on the money. " She laughs.

.

Matt: " Get real Babe. I know that you are real. I can see you and hear you and everything. I know that you are real. You are not a fake. I understand what I am experiencing "

.

Ida: " Silly you. You are imagining the things that I gave you the ability to think about Matt, that is what you are capable of doing . "

.

Matt: " Are you trying to tell me that you don't really exist Babe is that what you are doing? "

.

Ida: " Can you touch me? Go ahead. Reach over and touch me."

.

He pinches her tummy

.

Ida: " Ouch. that hurt you Brute. " She laughs.

.

Matt: " See Babe you're real, just like me. "

.

Ida: " Yes, but where am I now. Catch me if you can. " laughing.

.

He pinches her again.

.

Nothing happens

.

Ida: " Boo! I'm over here. In the back of your brain. Pinch me now if you can."

.

Matt: " That's not fair Babe. You tricked me. "

.

Ida laughing: " See what I mean Honey? "

.

Matt: " Well, isn't that your body there Babe? "

.

Ida: " Of course it is Honey. If you can imagine me then I exist. Just like your body is over there. I know it is real and so do you. Bodies are matter remember. Just places where ideas reside. That is why we are married Honey. We need each other for our survival. Are you starting to catch on? "

.

Matt: " Just a minute Babe, not so fast. You might need me, but do I really need you? I mean I could exist for an eternity if I wanted to without you. I am matter and I am not going to die or disappear. Matter lives forever. We both know that. That is what eternity is based on, me living forever and forever. "

.

Ida: " And, how would you know that if you could not imagine or think about it? "

.

Matt: " Yeah, I guess I see your point. I wouldn't know that I exist without you. Yes, you are right Babe. Sorry for stepping out of line like that. "

.

Ida: " It's OK, you are matter and nothing without me like I told you before. ...

.

She kisses Matt.

.

....which brings me back to my wanting to have a baby Matt. I really believe it is Destiny you know. You are beginning to agree I hope. "

.

Matt: " What do I have to do Honey? "

.

Ida: " Nothing. Just listen and learn and absorb everything that I tell you and when we are finished, well, we will be on the way to having OUR baby. OK? .....

.

She continues....

.

...imagine Matt something which you have never experienced before. Like right now. "

.

She wraps her arms around Matt pulls him tight against her body. She makes him think of her warm body and the smoothness of her skin. She tells him to kiss her breasts and all of the other parts of her body as well. And, then she tells him to rub her body all over and explains to him how wonderful that makes her feel. She directs him to the parts of her body that will make him the happiest. She tells him how wonderful he will feel when they are making love and they begin to copulate. They make love for hour after hour..Matt experiences endless episodes of ecstasy. He is in sexual heaven. Ida teaches Matt all manner of sexual positioning and they experience the physical pleasures of sex together. Matt experiences orgasm after orgasm and groans with delight as Ida teaches him these things which he had never known before, or even heard about. She wanted Matt to know everything there was to know about physical sex, lust and desire. Just as she had promised the Lord God Jehovah, Matt would come to know the meaning of sex as it is known on Earth. Matt would come to know the beauty and joy of human physical desire.

.

After having sex Ida and Matt lie on the bed and face one another. They are are taking a well-deserved break from their sometimes violent love making. They talk and she wants to know what Matt thought of his experiences with physical sex

.

Ida: " So, how do you feel now Honey? "

.

Matt: " Wow, that was awesome. I never felt so great in my whole life. Is this what sexual beauty is Honey? "

.

Ida: " Yes it is Honey and it is the exact same thing that Jehovah implanted in his human beings, these ideas already exist in the minds of Katy and Carl. They know of these things and when they love each other they feel physical love for one another - they desire one another. They are drawn to each other as magnets. This is where human emotions come from Honey, they are born of the flesh and of the desire that lives there. The Lord God Jehovah created these things as ideas for man and now I am teaching them to you as well. "

.

Matt: " I see. So, when Katy and Carl look at each other then they experience different things right? "

.

Ida: " That's right Babe. They experience lust, the lust that Jehovah gave them. This is how they create their offspring just as we are doing now. We are creating a new creature based on our desire for one another. It is out of pure pleasure that we make something. This is the idea that predominates Earth and its inhabitants. Do you understand Honey? "

.

He reaches out to grab Ida's arms and legs and attempts to draw her closer to him once again. He is filled with lust and desire.

.

Matt: " Interesting. I love you Babe. "

.

Ida starts to cry as Matt crushes her with his body.

.

Ida: " Please Honey I want to go to sleep now. No more please! "

.

Matt: " Awe, come on Babe, just one more time. You can do it."

.

Ida: " I'd rather not Honey. I want to go to sleep now. "

.

She pushes Matt away from her and covers herself in the blanket on the bed and curls up and continues to cry herself to sleep. She knows that Matt is focused on her and wants her again. This is the price that she has to pay for making the bargain with Jehovah. She knows that and accepts it.

.

Matt feeling disgruntled and dejected

.

Matt: " Some wife you turned out to be Babe. Teaching a guy about sex and then turning on him. Beautiful. What do you do for an encore?

.

To be continued....
