More on Human ABILITY to REASON, Human RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 131

Most likely to be published later this fall/winter of 2019/2020, my 11th book entitled appropriately; More 100 Proems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the previous....


PROEM & POEM No. 131 - Incapable of Gray / Part 2


      Oddly though interestingly in contrast to the previous proem, I am told by some fellow Christian practitioners I see in gray the world they argue is clearly black and white, more often stated as good versus evil or righteous versus unrighteous, thus concluding, categorizing then condemning as anything goes my constant perspective and consistent posture regarding the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent on all matters, inseparably respecting the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason. Plainly, I am seen as rejecting their particular religious list of dos and don’ts. Politely of course I retort as before (see No. 130) with a challenge; are not actions or activities involving two or more solely upon unanimous consent far from anything goes, for without consent the exchange is theft, labor is slavery, entrance is invasion, termination is murder, and endlessly more if to exemplify all possible human endeavors.

      Consequently, I do not see in gray rather in black and white the same world some see in their various grays per convenient exceptions and opportunistic compromises therefore inconsistent thus complex, while others see in their various blacks and whites per religious, denominational or sectarian preferences also inconsistent thus complex.

      Upon logically as well passionately understanding the ethic by regarding and respecting the individual’s right to consent thus ability to reason, there naturally comes the further awareness of the inherent consistency thus simplicity. Although no one will admit it, the consistency thus simplicity are rejected as impractical, ridiculed as fantastical and the why is quite obvious; the unwanted inconvenience imposed upon the common preference to use political, social or criminal force upon others. For unequivocally one expects others’ regard for his/her prerogative or right to consent versus dissent, of course, yet covetousness left unchecked inevitably disregards others’ prerogative or right to consent versus dissent. To complicate the matter a bit more, very few are cold and callous enough to knowingly carry on. Hence to peacefully sleep at night, most will conjure some rationalization, justification even glorification of ideas and principles, in order to pacify the intellect and conscience. Unwittingly a different sort of coldness, callousness therefore perversion emerges within the mind, heart and soul by the initial and continual pacification until a logical awakening or awareness intervenes and convicts.

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
