It\'s not wise to include my remark here in particular. Oldies will say it is not wise to have a computer and internet at all, unless ofcourse you live in Switzerland. The writing amounts to the same thing. It\'s the same principle that applies. No one really cares except about \' their market\'. That is quite inhuman. I find that Caucasians, because of and regardless of, current happenings in the world, ought to alter their view of strangers. The anti-jew feeling has no basis whatsoever. The psalm says: \'the earth is the Lord\'s and the fullness thereof\'. The anti-islam feeling will find its own (indeed whole) solution soon, or soon enough.

The title of my comment is: Follow up of the forthcoming attraction ie event! This is rather cynical on my part, but I leave you to extract the bitterness in it.

I was recently writing to Matt, Danielle, and Suzanne in the Netherlands. Being a busy/buzy writer of sorts(!?), it should not bother me a lot,if you know what I mean, when the article about GW and his Copenhagen act dissappears from the screen and with it all my fuzzy remarks. I don\'t know how I got myself into it. (Later I learned that the Netherlands may be the only location interested in Migration. I still have to check Spain and Belgium just for the knowledge of it - although Spain may represent a pivot axis insofar as traditional classical historical and also advanced Academia is concerned, what with its American protractions.) But the point is, already the UK is dubbing me \'traitor\'. My weakness, my sin: I used English to write a short monograph.

I have an aunt in Switzerland, she must be getting on in age. Much help she has been! In the face of great adversity. Ah for the deep philosophy of Time and its Owners, the Wisdom, the Solid Practical Wisdom, the Outstretched Hand of Christiandom to sooth and lift out of injustice....... ...

The old ideas behind Migration, seem not to apply any more. It has been and is becoming more of a Dog World, don\'t ask me why. To counteract this, Islamic scholars and professors are in the demand (that is my conjecture). Why don\'t you import one or two more(Moslem) Indian and Chinese Mathematical physists to help you solve the social encounters of today in Europe. Tying Mathematics to Biology is child\'s play these days. Any unemployed social drifter bloke will tell you this. Normal moderate Islamicists (of various racial origins) from Antartica, Australia, and obviously from both the Americas will add to the value of the general argument especially where Caucasian simple poor suffering is concerned. Ulterior East European Moslems will be the cutting end stage of the argument. Together with the Central Asian Bulk, justice will be done. I live in Africa.

Lastly but not leastly: Life has taught me to be slow before acting, to study well my move; once bitten twice shy. In Holland, strangers may be put to their grand tests again, with euthanasia and other lofty radiating measures. Life has taught me, that another existence is welcome, for to think and stand alone has no meaning. Go on with your global Moral Physics experimentation: a whole lifetime wasted is not weight enough to bring the balance to equilibrium again. History is only yours to make and remake. To be polical-economically successful is a pure singular subjective story, and damn be the condemnations of those involved.

Since I have much harder sayings to compose,

I will now sign this letter, W

My Brother
I read your article and your opinions. Are you a writer? What is your focus? who do you intend to bring to an understanding of this world? In my opinion your religious belive has helped you to stay grounded. Be very careful how you express your inner feeling. Some persons do care and other just live in the sensuality of this world. Once a Muslim and now a born again Child of God. Advise that you express your self and experiences in the publications of your books.

Dear Reader

It helps so to learn from others. How limited one seems compared to the ensemble of folk opinion and writing ability too. I am not specifically a writer. I was once a practicing doctor, but owing to various reasons, I swerved away from that field. Administration in some places and some times takes the upper hand. Plus there is a lot to tie pure Science to Medicine.

What I say is merely, as obviously you realize, a passing thought, but that is also based on some inner vision or dream. First and foremost, before I say anything else: immediately after rereading my own words, which were written rather carelessly and swiftly, I realized that I owe everyone a correction.
Clearly, I should have defined: \\\" Other normal moderate Islamicist...\\\", and the same description would apply as I spoke of intellectuals from East Europe and elsewhere. I am sorry for the inaccuracy. Also more probably I should have said : please inivite those people from India and China, by no means import them! You must notice that there is a faint streak of fiction in what I write, that does not go against my core idea; it is like the foreseability in science fiction.

But then your words are full of enigma themselves. I think you wish me to elucidate (you know from lux, lucidum: light in Latin) on every point I wrote . I was not trying to lure anybody out into a discussion, no please not that. If that was my aim, I would have started with a more broken spirit and humble heart. I have no books to brag of except my monograph, some poems, and finally a lot of letters.
Should any person truly and genuinely have gone into or through the experience of \\\'coming nearer to God\\\', I will not say further, his is the responsibility of the tree as it grows in nature, of the bird that is \\\'really\\\' obliged to rejoice, of the content heart that overflows, and also lastly, of the pure thinker who praises much the irrefutability of a God who is so prone to explain Himself, and a God, with His Nature, who becomes increasingly amenable to this explanation, as we limited humans seek it.

With such an attitude, one can not only move forward, but also forward with vision, and intelligently.

I am a Christian by background and my words are directed to a Judea-Christian Sector of human geography. However all I predict, may well happen. All of us, following a great war, will have to manage anew, for a new round of argument.

I am for freedom, and for a more vanishing search or inquiry.

W

Postscript: My other had words must wait till later.
