<br />
Welcome to the Make Friends channel. On June 14, 2017 many of the world&rsquo;s most prominent religious leaders made a joint statement encouraging people everywhere to make friends across religions. Friendship and getting to know one another are the antidotes to negativity and divisions in society, enhancing understanding and unity. We invite you to download our toolkits for friendship and study:&nbsp;<a href="https://tinyurl.com/yd8y3qcx" rel="nofollow noopener" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(22, 122, 198); cursor: pointer;" target="_blank">https://tinyurl.com/yd8y3qcx</a>. We pray that the message and example of unity, shown by these leaders, will contribute to bridging divisions by inspiring you and your friends to start new conversations with people of different faiths. Follow the example, spread the message.<br />

Experimental director, composer and playwright Jim Wilson recorded the sound of crickets and then slowed down the recording, revealing something so amazing. The crickets sound like they are singing the most angelic chorus in perfect harmony. Though it sounds like human voices, everything you hear is the crickets themselves. There are two tracks, one is played at regular speed and the other is the slowed version. The singing you hear are the crickets only. No instruments or voices were added.&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); background-color: rgb(237, 240, 245); text-align: center;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(0, 128, 128);"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 28px; vertical-align: baseline;">Creatures We Share Life With</span></span></strong></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); background-color: rgb(237, 240, 245); text-align: center;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(0, 128, 128);"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 28px; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" height="36" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-arch-01.png" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px transparent; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;" width="560"></span></span></strong></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14.4px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); background-color: rgb(237, 240, 245);">Creatures we share life with. &ldquo;Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?

This leaves out North Korea&#39;s two alleged nuclear tests in this past decade (the legitimacy of both of which is not 100% clear). Each nation gets a blip and a flashing dot on the map whenever they detonate a nuclear weapon, with a running tally kept on the top and bottom bars of the screen. Hashimoto, who began the project in 2003, says that he created it with the goal of showing&quot;the fear and folly of nuclear weapons.&quot; It starts really slow &mdash; if you want to see real action, skip ahead to 1962 or so &mdash; but the buildup becomes overwhelming. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?redir_token=_8iwfw19UKLIii4dQ7OzyJvrHLZ8MTUyNjMzOTc0NUAxNTI2MjUzMzQ1&amp;event=video_description&amp;v=LLCF7vPanrY&amp;q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctbto.org%2Fspecials%2F1945-1998-by-isao-hashimoto%2F" style="cursor: pointer;">http://www.ctbto.org/specials/1945-19...</a> Multimedia artwork &quot;2053&quot; - This is the number of nuclear explosions conducted in various parts of the globe.* Profile of the artist: Isao HASHIMOTO Born in Kumamoto prefecture, Japan in 1959. Worked for 17 years in financial industry as a foreign exchange dealer. Studied at Department of Arts, Policy and Management of Musashino Art University, Tokyo. Currently working for Lalique Museum, Hakone, Japan as a curator. Created artwork series expressing, in the artist&#39;s view, &quot;the fear and the folly of nuclear weapons&quot;: &quot;1945-1998&quot; &copy; 2003 &quot;Overkilled&quot; &quot;The Names of Experiments&quot; About &quot;1945-1998&quot; &copy;2003 &quot;This piece of work is a bird&#39;s eye view of the history by scaling down a month length of time into one second. No letter is used for equal messaging to all viewers without language barrier. The blinking light, sound and the numbers on the world map show when, where and how many experiments each country have conducted. I created this work for the means of an interface to the people who are yet to know of the extremely grave, but present problem of the world.&quot; Contact the artist: Should you have any query regarding this artwork, please contact e-mail address below: hashi123@amy.hi-ho.ne.jp * The number excludes both tests by North Korea (October 2006 and May 2009).</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="111" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png" width="1000"></div><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #0000FF;"><strong>LAW, LIBERTY, AND SOVEREIGNTY</strong></span></p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">War on this world will never end so long as nations cling to the illusive notions of unlimited national sovereignty. There are only two levels of relative sovereignty on an inhabited world: the spiritual free will of the individual mortal and the collective sovereignty of mankind as a whole. Between the level of the individual human being and the level of the total of mankind, all groupings and associations are relative, transitory, and of value only in so far as they enhance the welfare, well-being, and progress of the individual and the planetary grand total -- man and mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">It is not a question of armaments or disarmament. Neither does the question of conscription or voluntary military service enter into these problems of maintaining world-wide peace. If you take every form of modern mechanical armaments and all types of explosives away from strong nations, they will fight with fists, stones, and clubs as long as they cling to their delusions of the divine right of national sovereignty.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; Religious teachers must always remember that the spiritual sovereignty of God overrides all intervening and intermediate spiritual loyalties. Someday civil rulers will learn that the Most Highs rule in the kingdoms of men.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; This rule of the Most Highs in the kingdoms of men is not for the especial benefit of any especially favored group of mortals. There is no such thing as a &quot;chosen people.&quot; The rule of the Most Highs, the overcontrollers of political evolution, is a rule designed to foster the greatest good to the greatest number of <em>all</em> men and for the greatest length of time.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Sovereignty is power and it grows by organization. This growth of the organization of political power is good and proper, for it tends to encompass ever-widening segments of the total of mankind. But this same growth of political organizations creates a problem at every intervening stage between the initial and natural organization of political power -- the family -- and the final consummation of political growth -- the government of all mankind, by all mankind, and for all mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Starting out with parental power in the family group, political sovereignty evolves by organization as families overlap into consanguineous clans which become united, for various reasons, into tribal units -- superconsanguineous political groupings. And then, by trade, commerce, and conquest, tribes become unified as a nation, while nations themselves sometimes become unified by empire.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;As sovereignty passes from smaller groups to larger groups, wars are lessened. That is, minor wars between smaller nations are lessened, but the potential for greater wars is increased as the nations wielding sovereignty become larger and larger. Presently, when all the world has been explored and occupied, when nations are few, strong, and powerful, when these great and supposedly sovereign nations come to touch borders, when only oceans separate them, then will the stage be set for major wars, world-wide conflicts. So-called sovereign nations cannot rub elbows without generating conflicts and eventuating wars.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;The difficulty in the evolution of political sovereignty from the family to all mankind, lies in the inertia-resistance exhibited on all intervening levels. Families have, on occasion, defied their clan, while clans and tribes have often been subversive of the sovereignty of the territorial state. Each new and forward evolution of political sovereignty is (and has always been) embarrassed and hampered by the &quot;scaffolding stages&quot; of the previous developments in political organization. And this is true because human loyalties, once mobilized, are hard to change. The same loyalty which makes possible the evolution of the tribe, makes difficult the evolution of the supertribe -- the territorial state. And the same loyalty (patriotism) which makes possible the evolution of the territorial state, vastly complicates the evolutionary development of the government of all mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Political sovereignty is created out of the surrender of self-determinism, first by the individual within the family and then by the families and clans in relation to the tribe and larger groupings. This progressive transfer of self-determination from the smaller to ever larger political organizations has generally proceeded unabated in the East since the establishment of the Ming and the Mogul dynasties. In the West it obtained for more than a thousand years right on down to the end of the World War, when an unfortunate retrograde movement temporarily reversed this normal trend by re-establishing the submerged political sovereignty of numerous small groups in Europe.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Earth will not enjoy lasting peace until the so-called sovereign nations intelligently and fully surrender their sovereign powers into the hands of the brotherhood of men -- mankind government. Internationalism -- Leagues of Nations -- can never bring permanent peace to mankind. World-wide confederations of nations will effectively prevent minor wars and acceptably control the smaller nations, but they will not prevent world wars nor control the three, four, or five most powerful governments. In the face of real conflicts, one of these world powers will withdraw from the League and declare war. You cannot prevent nations going to war as long as they remain infected with the delusional virus of national sovereignty. Internationalism is a step in the right direction. An international police force will prevent many minor wars, but it will not be effective in preventing major wars, conflicts between the great military governments of earth.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;As the number of truly sovereign nations (great powers) decreases, so do both opportunity and need for mankind government increase. When there are only a few really sovereign (great) powers, either they must embark on the life and death struggle for national (imperial) supremacy, or else, by voluntary surrender of certain prerogatives of sovereignty, they must create the essential nucleus of supernational power which will serve as the beginning of the real sovereignty of all mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Peace will not come to this world until every so-called sovereign nation surrenders its power to make war into the hands of a representative government of all mankind. Political sovereignty is innate with the peoples of the world. When all the peoples of Earth create a world government, they have the right and the power to make such a government SOVEREIGN; and when such a representative or democratic world power controls the world&#39;s land, air, and naval forces, peace on earth and good will among men can prevail -- but not until then.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">With scientific progress, wars are going to become more and more devastating until they become almost racially suicidal. How many world wars must be fought and how many leagues of nations must fail before men will be willing to establish the government of mankind and begin to enjoy the blessings of permanent peace and thrive on the tranquillity of good will -- world-wide good will -- among men?</p><p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="111" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png" width="1000"></p>]]></description>

The really civilized government had arrived when public opinion was clothed with the powers of personal franchise. Popular elections may not always decide things rightly, but they represent the right way even to do a wrong thing. Evolution does not at once produce superlative perfection but rather comparative and advancing practical adjustment.&nbsp;<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(233, 233, 233);">

The family of God is derived from the love of God -- God is love. God the Father divinely loves his children, all of them.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; The kingdom of heaven, the divine government, is founded on the fact of divine sovereignty -- God is spirit. Since God is spirit, this kingdom is spiritual. The kingdom of heaven is neither material nor merely intellectual; it is a spiritual relationship between God and man.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; f different religions recognize the spirit sovereignty of God the Father, then will all such religions remain at peace. Only when one religion assumes that it is in some way superior to all others, and that it possesses exclusive authority over other religions, will such a religion presume to be intolerant of other religions or dare to persecute other religious believers.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Religious peace -- brotherhood -- can never exist unless all religions are willing to completely divest themselves of all ecclesiastical authority and fully surrender all concept of spiritual sovereignty. God alone is spirit sovereign.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;You cannot have equality among religions (religious liberty) without having religious wars unless all religions consent to the transfer of all religious sovereignty to some superhuman level, to God himself.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;The kingdom of heaven in the hearts of men will create religious unity (not necessarily uniformity) because any and all religious groups composed of such religious believers will be free from all notions of ecclesiastical authority -- religious sovereignty.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;God is spirit, and God gives a fragment of his spirit self to dwell in the heart of man. Spiritually, all men are equal. The kingdom of heaven is free from castes, classes, social levels, and economic groups. You are all brethren.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;But the moment you lose sight of the spirit sovereignty of God the Father, some one religion will begin to assert its superiority over other religions; and then, instead of peace on earth and good will among men, there will start dissensions, recriminations, even religious wars, at least wars among religionists.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Freewill beings who regard themselves as equals, unless they mutually acknowledge themselves as subject to some supersovereignty, some authority over and above themselves, sooner or later are tempted to try out their ability to gain power and authority over other persons and groups. The concept of equality never brings peace except in the mutual recognition of some overcontrolling influence of supersovereignty.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;The Urmia religionists lived together in comparative peace and tranquillity because they had fully surrendered all their notions of religious sovereignty. Spiritually, they all believed in a sovereign God; socially, full and unchallengeable authority rested in their presiding head -- Cymboyton. They well knew what would happen to any teacher who assumed to lord it over his fellow teachers. There can be no lasting religious peace on this world until all religious groups freely surrender all their notions of divine favor, chosen people, and religious sovereignty. Only when God the Father becomes supreme will men become religious brothers and live together in religious peace on earth.</p><p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-02-Thick-Shadow.png"></p><p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: center;">&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong><span style="color: #0000FF;">POLITICAL SOVEREIGNTY</span></strong></p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;<sup>While the Master&#39;s teaching concerning the sovereignty of God is a truth -- only complicated by the subsequent appearance of the religion about him among the world&#39;s religions -- his presentations concerning political sovereignty are vastly complicated by the political evolution of nation life during the last nineteen hundred years and more. In the times of Jesus there were only two great world powers -- the Roman Empire in the West and the Han Empire in the East -- and these were widely separated by the Parthian kingdom and other intervening lands of the Caspian and Turkestan regions. We have, therefore, in the following presentation departed more widely from the substance of the Master&#39;s teachings at Urmia concerning political sovereignty, at the same time attempting to depict the import of such teachings as they are applicable to the peculiarly critical stage of the evolution of political sovereignty in the twentieth century after Christ.</sup></p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;War on this world will never end so long as nations cling to the illusive notions of unlimited national sovereignty. There are only two levels of relative sovereignty on an inhabited world: the spiritual free will of the individual mortal and the collective sovereignty of mankind as a whole. Between the level of the individual human being and the level of the total of mankind, all groupings and associations are relative, transitory, and of value only in so far as they enhance the welfare, well-being, and progress of the individual and the planetary grand total -- man and mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Religious teachers must always remember that the spiritual sovereignty of God overrides all intervening and intermediate spiritual loyalties. Someday civil rulers will learn that the Most Highs rule in the kingdoms of men.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;This rule of the Most Highs in the kingdoms of men is not for the especial benefit of any especially favored group of mortals. There is no such thing as a &quot;chosen people.&quot; The rule of the Most Highs, the overcontrollers of political evolution, is a rule designed to foster the greatest good to the greatest number of <em>all</em> men and for the greatest length of time.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Sovereignty is power and it grows by organization. This growth of the organization of political power is good and proper, for it tends to encompass ever-widening segments of the total of mankind. But this same growth of political organizations creates a problem at every intervening stage between the initial and natural organization of political power -- the family -- and the final consummation of political growth -- the government of all mankind, by all mankind, and for all mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Starting out with parental power in the family group, political sovereignty evolves by organization as families overlap into consanguineous clans which become united, for various reasons, into tribal units -- superconsanguineous political groupings. And then, by trade, commerce, and conquest, tribes become unified as a nation, while nations themselves sometimes become unified by empire.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;As sovereignty passes from smaller groups to larger groups, wars are lessened. That is, minor wars between smaller nations are lessened, but the potential for greater wars is increased as the nations wielding sovereignty become larger and larger. Presently, when all the world has been explored and occupied, when nations are few, strong, and powerful, when these great and supposedly sovereign nations come to touch borders, when only oceans separate them, then will the stage be set for major wars, world-wide conflicts. So-called sovereign nations cannot rub elbows without generating conflicts and eventuating wars.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;The difficulty in the evolution of political sovereignty from the family to all mankind, lies in the inertia-resistance exhibited on all intervening levels. Families have, on occasion, defied their clan, while clans and tribes have often been subversive of the sovereignty of the territorial state. Each new and forward evolution of political sovereignty is (and has always been) embarrassed and hampered by the &quot;scaffolding stages&quot; of the previous developments in political organization. And this is true because human loyalties, once mobilized, are hard to change. The same loyalty which makes possible the evolution of the tribe, makes difficult the evolution of the supertribe -- the territorial state. And the same loyalty (patriotism) which makes possible the evolution of the territorial state, vastly complicates the evolutionary development of the government of all mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Political sovereignty is created out of the surrender of self-determinism, first by the individual within the family and then by the families and clans in relation to the tribe and larger groupings. This progressive transfer of self-determination from the smaller to ever larger political organizations has generally proceeded unabated in the East since the establishment of the Ming and the Mogul dynasties. In the West it obtained for more than a thousand years right on down to the end of the World War, when an unfortunate retrograde movement temporarily reversed this normal trend by re-establishing the submerged political sovereignty of numerous small groups in Europe.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;This world will not enjoy lasting peace until the so-called sovereign nations intelligently and fully surrender their sovereign powers into the hands of the brotherhood of men -- mankind government. Internationalism -- Leagues of Nations -- can never bring permanent peace to mankind. World-wide confederations of nations will effectively prevent minor wars and acceptably control the smaller nations, but they will not prevent world wars nor control the three, four, or five most powerful governments. In the face of real conflicts, one of these world powers will withdraw from the League and declare war. You cannot prevent nations going to war as long as they remain infected with the delusional virus of national sovereignty. Internationalism is a step in the right direction. An international police force will prevent many minor wars, but it will not be effective in preventing major wars, conflicts between the great military governments of earth.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;As the number of truly sovereign nations (great powers) decreases, so do both opportunity and need for mankind government increase. When there are only a few really sovereign (great) powers, either they must embark on the life and death struggle for national (imperial) supremacy, or else, by voluntary surrender of certain prerogatives of sovereignty, they must create the essential nucleus of supernational power which will serve as the beginning of the real sovereignty of all mankind.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Peace will not come to this world until every so-called sovereign nation surrenders its power to make war into the hands of a representative government of all mankind. Political sovereignty is innate with the peoples of the world. When all the peoples of the world create a world government, they have the right and the power to make such a government SOVEREIGN; and when such a representative or democratic world power controls the world&#39;s land, air, and naval forces, peace on earth and good will among men can prevail -- but not until then.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;To use an important nineteenth- and twentieth-century illustration: The forty-eight states of the American Federal Union have long enjoyed peace. They have no more wars among themselves. They have surrendered their sovereignty to the federal government, and through the arbitrament of war, they have abandoned all claims to the delusions of self-determination. While each state regulates its internal affairs, it is not concerned with foreign relations, tariffs, immigration, military affairs, or interstate commerce. Neither do the individual states concern themselves with matters of citizenship. The forty-eight states suffer the ravages of war only when the federal government&#39;s sovereignty is in some way jeopardized.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;These forty-eight states, having abandoned the twin sophistries of sovereignty and self-determination, enjoy interstate peace and tranquillity. So will the nations of the world begin to enjoy peace when they freely surrender their respective sovereignties into the hands of a global government -- the sovereignty of the brotherhood of men. In this world state the small nations will be as powerful as the great, even as the small state of Rhode Island has its two senators in the American Congress just the same as the populous state of New York or the large state of Texas.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;The limited (state) sovereignty of these forty-eight states was created by men and for men. The superstate (national) sovereignty of the American Federal Union was created by the original thirteen of these states for their own benefit and for the benefit of men. Sometime the supernational sovereignty of the planetary government of mankind will be similarly created by nations for their own benefit and for the benefit of all men.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;Citizens are not born for the benefit of governments; governments are organizations created and devised for the benefit of men. There can be no end to the evolution of political sovereignty short of the appearance of the government of the sovereignty of all men. All other sovereignties are relative in value, intermediate in meaning, and subordinate in status.</p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp;With scientific progress, wars are going to become more and more devastating until they become almost racially suicidal. How many world wars must be fought and how many leagues of nations must fail before men will be willing to establish the government of mankind and begin to enjoy the blessings of permanent peace and thrive on the tranquillity of good will -- world-wide good will -- among men?</p><p style="margin-left: 36pt; text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="111" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png" width="1000"></p><p style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">&nbsp;</p>]]></description>
