LIVING METAPHOR?

As I continue to consider the elements present in the beginnings of this version of Representative Democracy... the perspective in such considerations itself, becomes all the more incredible. If only in a musing fashion with and within the tendencies of the human species through development.

In considering the time frame where-in the United States began to form... and taking into account the level to which the colonies had progressed at that point.... a person tends to lean toward the regard of merely the existing influences of the day - the popular and exciting ideas which were focused on, being the actual focus of intention.

This is to say, as many will probably agree in that sense, the United States was very much a guinea pig. A developing area where new and exciting ideas could be put into motion. Ideas that - as is obvious in hind sight - were seen as that sort of potential, only wanting of some place to be utilized.

Such is substantiated with the French Revolution beginning immediately at the decline of the American Revolution. In my own belief, such is directly as result of the exciting potentials beginning to manifest.

Of course, such is and was draped in the popular and observable political bents of the time - but beyond such stances, beyond the quotes and statements is a deeper reason. I believe such reason is substantially due to those new ideas showing so much promise.

From my perspective, it was from the position of the political situation with the colonies where those ideas first found opportunity to begin a motion of development.

Something I now see, as is obvious within this work... is that such ideas were essentially rooted within the idea of Popular Christianity of the time. This, again if only through a matter of course and result of the more common facets of the social structure of the day. Again, the focus was very much on implementing new and progressive ideas regarding governing and social politics. I see very little actual evidence of concerted and purposeful efforts at the larger emulation which can be seen as result pertaining to modern forms of Christianity and the Bible.

While such may seem in some degrees as sort of a let down in considering the happenstance aspect (potential) of such, it really only stands as an incredible example and observable consistency within the development of human society(ies).

The layered aspects I am finding rather incredible as well... and such would stand to reason given that regardless of political differences of the day - which were and became quite pronounced as can be seen easily - the one commonality, which of course was not a focal point beyond the want unilaterally of addressing religion with a certain level of freedom, was Popular Christianity of the day.

Those layers within such motion could even be attributed to some degree, to that very aspect of subtle differences in approach to the same body of work... which of course, in this instance being within the scope and spectrum as it was - then acted to sort of create a sub conscious of the larger body in motion so to speak. It wasn't seen as a place of contention within the focus and excitement of all else transpiring.

In my belief, as I have expressed previously here in regarding the artistic appreciation and further within the concept/application aspect in human tendency, such a lack in focus - then actually presented further opportunity for the continuance of a consistency, layered as per motion, within that distinct lack of focal attention. It plays out in a more subconscious manner regarding a relationship with the larger motion in development. Within that further is the seeming tendency of such become more efficient the farther away it becomes from a dominating aspect in that sense.

Of course there are other, more topical and obvious aspects within the design and development of the United States government which really has little to do with the concepts utilized being new of that time period, and further has even less in relation to the motion being put forward in that subconscious sense on a larger scale - with and within the idea of Popular Christianity.

In so many words - just because the Romans eventually defeated Israel doesn't mean that there is a distinct relationship to the Romans. This being due largely from what I can discern, in that focus aspect of Popular Christianity of the time, and not so much things that may have transpired beyond the depictions within the Popular Work titled the Bible.

In another respect, in regard to the government and the direct influences which formed it... such might be entirely different - and is in some respects regarding things such as the Senate for instance. BUT, in my opinion, such developmental influences are of a different order... more so as result of the living influences which went into the development and progress of the new ideas for instance. The conscious and cognitive consideration of existing information (imposed limitations).

Another big BUT which is really kind of exciting here, is that within that combined elemental presence.... it then very much can be reasoned to incorporate many other folds of and within the progress of humanity, within both areas of consideration - being that more subconscious effect and the implemented ideologies corresponding.

Of course the Roman aspect is in no way the only timbre existing within that motion as anyone can see when simply considering it from this perspective.

Perhaps an easier way to consider this difference, is as stated; A conscious development, and a sub-conscious development. Simultaneously transpiring.

Both, and all within each of them respectively, manifesting moment to moment within our daily lives and social progress. Layered, off-set, related/un-related, staggered, in tandem. Very much as a person can see of the Bible itself in various degrees of development and use within different areas and cultures.

Further then considering the comparison to the idea of Christ it is a simple thing to see where, within such a concept (as Christ) in applied motion - developments then have the area to occur. But again, this isn't to say that Religion is the main focus here - nor is the government Jesus Christ.

Further yet then, within the larger divisions and motion of the social dynamic itself... a person can see comparisons to other aspects of and within the work titled the Bible. Again, as no result of applied effort to impose such motion. The presence of various extremes within the Bible can be seen as having manifested... more so have managed to be accommodated as result of them having manifested and then of course incorporated through various other facets with little or no relation to the idea of Popular Christianity - then, or now.

In fact, if I consider it simply in an applied sense as per that which has already transpired within history, and of course the United States - a person could almost entirely, if not entirely accommodate and thus fulfill every existing curse as result of failed compliance which exists within the book of instruction known as the Bible. That is, if a person were so inclined to such efforts in/of application.

A person can even see the extremes which appear to become a consistent within the Bible being comparable to the developed extremes within the continued loss of variation within political party diversity.

This of course is tended to be attributed directly perhaps to the motion in comparison of the Israelite community... but my personal perspective is that such is more a manifestation of that sub-conscious aspect in regard to this comparison. Being more relative to the apparent and consistent motion within the book itself as per extremes.

It makes sense that such a saturated work would eventually have such an effect on the body of population it most influenced. This of course beyond the topical result of applied ideology which can be found within it. Again, being more due to the seeming path of/in motion which it sets and maintains.

Further within that and probably as result of human tendency - gravitating toward those extremes socially, while failing to manifest the more subtle motion as it moves from one extreme to another. This point being in regard to the observable subtleties in such tone and timbre of motion through passages and chapters... and even from book to book.

In an abstract thought... just as an abstract consideration and definitely recognizing that such could not be an actual occurrence;

If one day you woke to find that you had in your possession, the very substance and idea of Jesus Christ and all of its facets - all of that which could be potential, what would you do with it?

I think I would do as little as possible with it in that sense. More employ it as to facilitate those progressive corruptions I have explored. I think I would utilize it to facilitate a semblance of life which was of and about the substance of life, itself. With as few imposed limitations as humanly possible.

Definitely a thought worth musing on though.... regardless of how ninny like and silly.

I suppose such forms of self entertainment could be seen as enemy of the commerce world these days - but even the beginnings of established value and worth in a commerce sense can be seen in those early books of the Popular work titled the Bible. Most surely there were and have been other examples of trade and commerce, but it is a distinction as far as I can tell thus far - to have designed and implemented a social motion to not only bolster such commerce, but develop value as well pertaining to the form of monies used.

When those designs are applied in a larger sense, a person can see the beginnings perhaps of a floating monetary system. Whether or not such was applied in that sense at the time beyond being as result of the social structure itself.

When a person then considers such initial designs with the eventual disbursement of the tribes of Israel through out various countries... while keeping a rather commendable consistency of themselves.... it then stands to reason that such early designs could have been a model, if even sub-consciously, in more modern designs and attempts at the introduction of coin/monies.

It is one thing for some individual in a position of power to stamp a profile on a piece of metal and say it is worth something... and it is entirely another thing for a coined piece to be a part of a motion of itself, relating to that which it is related to - if that makes sense.

Again, I would argue at this point in my humble knowledge, that such designs as can be seen in those early books of the Bible are very much the beginnings of differentiation between the ideas of worth and value. More so a point of separation between the relating meaning of an object (coin for instance) and imparted value. The difference between it being said something is worth so much, and something holding such value of its own.

But that all might be bordering on a different area of consideration at this point in this work. though it will be interesting to again consider fictive transfer in conjunction with such developments.

I do not believe that acknowledging/exploring such is of the same effect as is the purposeful effort to employ/impose it. As I have put forward in and of my own belief, it is the imposed aspect - the purposeful implementation which then causes the problematic results... much in a similar manner as the difference between viewing a potential masterpiece, and taking it down off the wall to throw it around as if it were some primitive weapon to wield for some trinket like reward.
