    Saving Fish From Drowning

    "A pious man explained to his followers: "It is evil to take lives and noble to save them. Each day I pledge to save a hundred lives. I drop my net in the lake and scoop out a hundred fishes. I place the fishes on the bank, where they flop and twirl. 'Don't be scared,' I tell those fishes. 'I am saving you from drowning.' Soon enough, the fishes grow calm and lie still. Yet, sad to say, I am always too late. The fishes expire. And because it is evil to waste anything, I take those dead fishes to market and I sell them for a good price. With the money I receive, I buy more nets so I can save more fishes." - Anonymous

    The above appears in Amy Tan's book entitled Saving Fish From Drowning. For some reason after reading it, I could not help but think of heretical Gnostic idea of disembodiment as salvation (is that along the same thinking as Jihadist's and kamikaze pilots?), the NWO, 'geo-engineering', invasive administrative law, the party-pooping, buzz-kill of the financial system disturbers to " the Islamic/Manichean invasion" to Gnostics that hate Christianity but yet its really Gnosticism that they hate?.

    It sums it up so succinctly: everything from Michael Brown, to criminals disguised as police putting a woman in a psych ward because the don't believe she owns a BMW to chemtrails to erosion of rights to Fukushima to radiation killing life in the Pacific Ocean--why wont they just leave well enough alone? Well, duh its because they're busy saving fish from drowning (aka misery loves company).
