The Confederation

[Monica]

To the center, the book most closely aligned with the instrument’s mental distortions which are allied most closely with the Law of One, that being the Bible that she touches most frequently.

If you break down this statement grammatically, it is saying that Carla's mental distortions that are allied most closely with the Law of One are [in turn] most closely aligned with the Bible. Carla discovered resonance with the Law of One via her chosen path: mystical Christianity. So, for her, the Bible represented the highest of teachings. I don't think Ra was in any way saying that the bible itself was the most closely aligned, as compared to other books. Ra's statement pertained only to Carla's perception of the Bible, not Ra's assessment of it.

I suggested that an intentional distortion of an STO transmission that were so severely distorted by STS that it would result in "The Devils Manuscript" would certainly have been prevented enough so as to never having occurred. STS is not "Overlord" nor have dominion in 3D verses that it has "Equal Time", as is the case in political debate in democracy. Therefore it would stand to reason by this premise in logic that a hi-jacked STO transmission resulting in a Devils Manuscript would not be possible.

I understand but disagree. I think that is precisely what happened with the early books of the old testament. We don't know whether any of it was approved by the Confederation at all, specifically, but we do know that Yahweh engaged in a task of service which got hijacked, and the record of it appears to have gotten pretty mutilated, imo.

It is curious to note that in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Logos5..._entity%29 that it suggest the Bible is secondarily utilized as being most closely aligned with the LOO: "Elkins aligned the table which held the Bible ("the book most closely aligned with the instrument’s mental distortions, which are allied most closely with the Law of One").

This is a great example of another layer of distortion, when quotes are paraphrased, misquoted, condensed, or interpreted. After all the trouble the L/L team and Ra went thru to minimize distortion, only to have it get distorted anyway by well-intentioned people's efforts to condense the teachings!

Assuming the book review on "Urantia" was less than flattering, one might certainly induce that the book Ohaspe might have lent itself to as much of an editorial comment were it so bent vs given it was indeed passed.

Not necessarily. That would presuppose that the same rules applied in every situation, and we know they don't; there are myriad factors that enter into the equation, not the least of which is a knowledge of the calling (which is, for the most part, hidden to us here in 3D), as well as an assessment as to whether such an editorial might result in an infringement of free will.

I am a pragmatist. I am speaking to knowledge applied. I am not speaking to knowledge in the abstract

Oh, I thought you liked abstractions! (j/k )

...as though a definition in sterility void of the user applying same as much as the teacher transmitting same. In principle, yes, knowledge is static verses dynamic, as though in potentiation vs kinetic interplay. Ra and the higher STO brothers however do not teach knowledge divested of love. Neither do STS teachers. Love, I submit, is the principle which maketh things to move. Therefore knowledge conveyed has as much polarity intended as knowledge received.

I was in disagreement until I read your next statements (below). I don't think knowledge has polarity. Only the application of knowledge has polarity; or, more accurately, the intention behind that application.

It is not a leap of faith for me to assume that the Knowledge Ra attempted to convey was "Good" knowledge vs sterile knowledge, vs "Bad" knowledge, indeed the knowledge with which we might save our souls vs blow up the world or enslave it. By the same token I might induce that the knowledge transmitted by higher STS to lower sts might indeed, to the converse, be meant entirely to assist in the efforts towards the enslavement of humanity. Both are knowledge. I therefore submit that knowledge hardly exists, as though in static potentiation, but in fact comes alive only in dynamic kinetic interplay, i.e. polarity.

Exactly. We are saying the same thing here.
