We start with Catholic Church Wealth in California, especially that owned by the Los Angeles Archdiosis, is huge: Most of the wealth is in land. (This blog updated 5-2-8. For blogs/posts linked to this click back arrow or finnics7 and finn7777.)
A LA Times analysis found that the archdiocese is the recorded owner of one of the biggest real estate portfolios in Southern California — at least 1,600 properties with an estimated value of about $4 billion. But others say -- ONE BILLION HIDDEN.
Now what the nation's most-populous Catholic jurisdiction might be willing to sell to settle its sexual abuse scandle is likely to feed an ongoing debate within the church over who controls parish property — the prelates governing the institution or the parishioners. Most of the archdiocese's property is devoted to religious purposes, such as churches and schools. But there are also oil wells, farm parcels, commercial parking lots, a fashion district building and the land under an Alhambra car dealership. If recent settlements are a guide, the archdiocese and its insurers could have to pay $500 million or more to dispense with the rest of the molestation suits. That would be far and away the costliest resolution in the U.S. Catholic Church's marathon run of sex scandals; resolution latest info, 2-28-7.
The archdiocese says it expects insurers to pay almost all remaining settlements. But the liability companies insist that the church should bear most of burden. At the same time Cardinal Roger Baloney has staked out a position on internal ownership rules that seeks to restrict the plaintiffs' access to billions in church and school property. He has asserted that churches and schools belong to individual parishes and that the archdiocese doesn't have the authority to liquidate parish property to settle lawsuits.
Baloney's stance may be rife with possible church-state conflicts, pitting canon versus civil law. Plaintiffs say he is merely trying to avoid fairly compensating abuse victims.
The finances of the archdiocese are difficult to decipher, in part because it does not include the assets of parishes and other church organizations in its public balance sheets. On its website, the archdiocese reported gross assets in the last fiscal year of just $510 million, all of it in property and funds controlled by the central administration.
Looking at property records an LA Times examination of property records and other documents suggests that about $175 million of the archdiocese's real estate portfolio is in properties not classified by the tax assessor as used for religious purposes or cemeteries — and thus more likely to be available for settlements.
In addition, the archdiocese has investment funds of about $660 million, although it says most of that money belongs to affiliated organizations and parishes, according to the church's newspaper, the Tidings.
Balony said the archdiocese set aside $40 million last year toward Friday's settlements. He has not said how the church would pay for its share of settlements in the remaining lawsuits.
"Our goal is to have no impact to our parishes or ministries that would imperil our ministry," the cardinal said. "There are ways to combine services, maybe to accomplish the goals with fewer personnel, down the road."
But many parishioners fear that the settlements will cut into the archdiocese's network of churches, schools and ministries, which serve 4.3 million people in Los Angeles, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties.
The archdiocese's contention that its insurers are obligated to pay for the rest of the claims has been disputed by liability companies, which contend that California law renders coverage void because church superiors had reason to expect that the abuse would occur. The two sides have also differed on dollar and time limits of coverage.
Church and legal experts predict a compromise. In 2004, the Diocese of Orange split the cost of a $100-million settlement with its insurers. The diocese paid the $50 million with a bank loan and by tapping investments.
The archdiocese's attorney, J. M. Hennigan, said his client could not begin to pay half of a bill that could exceed $500 million without "great pain". He said the archdiocese is weighing which nonreligious property it could sell and will explore bank loans. If more cash is needed, Hennigan and others said, a fundraising appeal may begin.
But few doubt that archdiocesan programs will suffer in the end. For many note that, when confronted with a $4.3-million budget shortfall in 2002, the archdiocese closed ministries for students, the disabled, minorities, and gays and lesbians. Tom Honore, a Los Angeles parishioner who sits on the national board of Call to Action, which pushes for reforms in the church, said the archdiocese should sell nonessential property to settle the claims. "Before schools, parking lots should go," he said. "I am very concerned. Families and communities are built around parishes."
Hennigan said schools and churches are "not vulnerable" to closure and sale, but he hedged a bit. "You can never say never on anything," he said.
The archdiocese will not declare bankruptcy to protect its assets from the litigants, Hennigan said. Four other dioceses have taken that step because of molestation lawsuits. Church scholars say Balony has almost unchecked authority to sell church property. He consults with a variety of advisory councils that he appoints, but he ultimately answers only to Pope Benedict XVI, they say. "The cardinal can sell what he wants," said Charles Zech, an economics professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania. "Each bishop or each cardinal is the 'pope' of his archdiocese."
But putting churches and schools on the market could be thorny.
In a showdown that could have implications for Los Angeles, Boston parishioners have accused Cardinal Sean Patrick O'Malley of violating canon law when he decided to shut about 80 parishes — in part, church members say, to help offset millions in molestation settlements. O'Malley has said that dwindling church attendance and a priest shortage, not the abuse suits, prompted the closures. Canon law generally prohibits a bishop or cardinal from seizing parish assets, unless he can establish that factors such as a lack of worshipers left the parish unviable.
Hennigan said Balony interprets canon law to mean that he cannot sell parish property to pay settlements, a position likely to be challenged in court only if the church seeks bankruptcy protection.
Plaintiffs' attorneys say civil statutes trump canon law. They also note that the archdiocese is incorporated in California as a single entity, parishes included.
Bankruptcy courts have grappled with the church-state clash over ownership. In Portland, Ore., and Spokane, Wash., where dioceses filed for bankruptcy protection because of molestation lawsuits, judges found that parishes belonged to the bishop and could be sold to pay claims. Since a U.S. District Court reversed the Spokane decision, that case is in mediation.
Still, in nearly all circumstances, bishops who wanted to sell parish holdings had little trouble doing so. "The bishops say, 'No we don't own the parishes,' when it comes to fending off a bankruptcy, but, 'Yes, we do own them,' when they want to close them down," said Charles Wilson, executive director of the St. Joseph Foundation, a conservative parishioners' rights group that has fought, largely unsuccessfully, 89 parish closures since the 1980s.
The L.A. Archdiocese seems to have some cushion against selling churches and schools. Its nonreligious properties run the gamut of real estate investments: as varied as undeveloped desert parcels, six dozen single-family homes, the land beneath Goudy Honda in Alhambra and a Mission Hills self-storage business, county assessor records show. One property in the fashion district is home to a number of stores-- including the Berry Sexy Too clothing boutique!
Altogether, the records list about 1,500 properties in Los Angeles County and about 100 in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. The archdiocese also owns land elsewhere in California, and in Minnesota, Illinois and Arizona. The tally might be incomplete, because the properties are recorded in different names for the church, as well as variations of those names. Hennigan said the archdiocese could have title to 1,800 properties.
"Even our lists are not certain," he said. "This is not a well-oiled Fortune 500 company."
Most of the properties have been in the archdiocese's hands for many years, and county assessments of their value are out of date. The Times broadly estimated their current worth with a formula that applied regional increases in median home prices to archdiocesan properties. Land records and most experts consulted by the newspaper suggested that, at least since the early 1990s, commercial, industrial and church properties have increased in value at a similar rate to that for single-family homes, although some studies suggest that commercial and industrial prices have risen at a lower rate. Experts in church sales also cautioned that, even in the area's vibrant used-church market, Catholic churches might sell for less because of their design.
Some of the lower-profile properties are more marketable than others. Legal, zoning and parishioner hurdles aside, selling churches and schools could involve daunting demolition costs if they were not bought by other religious or educational groups. "The churches are kind of white elephants," said Allan Kotin, a real estate consultant. And church scholars say land can be a misleading indicator of archdiocese's true wealth.
Like other dioceses, the Los Angeles church often faces red ink because revenues for its central operations are relatively low — $107.6 million in the last fiscal year. The three major sources for that money were cemetery revenues, $39 million; rents, fees and "other" income, $22 million; and its 8% share — about $20 million--of Sunday collection baskets' take, plus other donations.
"There's a lot of mythology about the so-called wealth of the Catholic Church," said Thomas Rausch, a theology professor at Loyola Marymount University in Westchester. "I don't think the archdiocese is especially well-off right now."
But others say it is impossible to know. As a religious organization, the archdiocese is not required to disclose as much detailed financial information as other tax-exempt entities. Zech, the Villanova professor, said dioceses have revealed even less in recent years, as the abuse lawsuits have piled up. "They are so secretive," he said. "An archdiocese the size of Los Angeles…. They could find $1 billion tucked away somewhere.". This great piece appeared 12-3-2006 by Paul Pringle and Ted Rohrlich of Los Angeles Times.
SINFAT IZY WEILL, USA's most vile. Article by Louis Uchitelle in Business section, N. Y. Times, 7-15-7.
The tributes to Sanford I. Weill line the walls of the carpeted hallway that leads to his skyscraper office, with its panoramic view of Central Park. A dozen framed magazine covers, their colors as vivid as an Andy Warhol painting, are the most arresting. Each heralds Mr. Weill’s genius in assembling Citigroup into the most powerful financial institution since the House of Morgan a century ago.
His achievement required political clout, and that, too, is on display. Soon after he formed Citigroup, Congress repealed a Depression-era law that prohibited goliaths like the one Mr. Weill had just put together anyway, combining commercial and investment banking, insurance and stock brokerage operations. A trophy from the victory — a pen that President Bill Clinton used to sign the repeal —hangs, framed, near the magazine covers.
These days, Mr. Weill and many of the nation’s very wealthy chief executives, entrepreneurs and financiers echo an earlier era--the Gilded Age before World War I--when powerful enterprises, dominated by men who grew immensely rich, ushered in the industrialization of the United States. The new titans often see themselves as pillars of a similarly prosperous and expansive age, one in which their successes and their philanthropy have made government less important than it once was.
“People can look at the last 25 years and say this is an incredibly unique period of time,” Mr. Weill said. “We didn’t rely on somebody else to build what we built, and we shouldn’t rely on somebody else to provide all the services our society needs.”
Those earlier barons disappeared by the 1920s and, constrained by the Depression and by the greater government oversight and high income tax rates that followed, no one really took their place. Then, starting in the late 1970s, as the constraints receded, new tycoons gradually emerged, and now their concentrated wealth has made the early years of the 21st century truly another Gilded Age.
Only twice before over the last century has 5 percent of the national income gone to people in the upper one-one-hundredth of a percent of the income distribution — currently, the almost 15,000 families with incomes of $9.5 million or more a year, according to an analysis of tax returns by the economists Emmanuel Saez at the University of California, Berkeley and Thomas Piketty at Paris School of Economics.
Such concentration at the very top occurred in 1915 and 1916, as the Gilded Age was ending, and again briefly in the late 1920s, before the stock market crash. Now it is back, and Mr. Weill is prominent among the new titans. His net worth exceeds $1 billion, not counting the $500 million he says he has already given away, in the open-handed style of Andrew Carnegie and the other great philanthropists of earlier age.
At 74, just over a year into retirement as Citigroup chairman, Mr. Weill sees in Carnegie’s life aspects of his own. Andrew Carnegie, an impoverished Scottish immigrant, built a steel empire in Pittsburgh, taking risks that others shunned, just as the demand for steel was skyrocketing. He then gave away his fortune, reasoning that he was lucky to have been in the right spot at the right moment and he owed the community for his good luck — not in higher wages for his workers, but in philanthropic distribution of his wealth.
Mr. Weill’s beginnings were similarly inauspicious. A son of Jewish immigrants from Poland, raised in Brooklyn, a so-so college student, he landed on Wall Street in a low-level job in the 1950s. Harnessing entrepreneurial energy, deftness as a deal maker and an appetite for risk, with a rising stock market pulling him along, he built a financial empire that, in his view, successfully broke through the stultifying constraints that flowed from the New Deal. They were constraints not just on what business could or could not do, but on every high earner’s take-home pay.
“I once thought how lucky the Carnegies and the Rockefellers were because they made their money before there was an income tax,” Mr. Weill said, never believing in his younger days that deregulation and tax cuts, starting in the late 1970s, would bring back many of the easier conditions of the Gilded Age. “I felt that everything of any great consequence was really all made in the past,” he said. “That turned out not to be true and it is not true today.”
The Question of Talent
Other very wealthy men in the new Gilded Age talk of themselves as having a flair for business not unlike Derek Jeter’s “unique talent” for baseball, as Leo J. Hindery Jr. put it. “I think there are people, including myself at certain times in my career,” Mr. Hindery said, “who because of their uniqueness warrant whatever market will bear.”
He counts himself as a talented entrepreneur, having assembled from scratch a cable television sports network, the YES Network. “Jeter makes an unbelievable amount of money,” said Mr. Hindery, who now manages a private equity fund, “but you look at him and you say, ‘Wow, I cannot find another ballplayer with that same set of skills.’ ”
A handful of critics among the new elite, or close to it, are scornful of such self-appraisal. “I don’t see a relationship between the extremes of income now and the performance of the economy,” Paul A. Volcker, a former Federal Reserve Board chairman, said in an interview, challenging the contentions of the very rich that they are, more than others, the driving force of a robust economy.
The great fortunes today are largely a result of the long bull market in stocks, Mr. Volcker said. Without rising stock prices, stock options would not have become a major source of riches for financiers and chief executives. Stock prices rise for a lot of reasons, Mr. Volcker said, including ones that have nothing to do with the actions of these people.
“The market did not go up because businessmen got so much smarter,” he said, adding that the 1950s and 1960s, which the new tycoons denigrate as bureaucratic and uninspiring, “were very good economic times and no one was making what they are making now.”
James D. Sinegal, chief executive of Costco, the discount retailer, echoes that sentiment. “Obscene salaries send the wrong message through a company,” he said. “The message is that all brilliance emanates from the top; that the worker on the floor of the store or the factory is insignificant.”
A legendary chief executive from an earlier era is similarly critical. He is Robert L. Crandall, 71, who as president and then chairman and chief executive, led American Airlines through the early years of deregulation and pioneered the development of the hub-and-spoke system for managing airline routes. He retired in 1997, never having made more than $5 million a year, in the days before top incomes really took off.
He is speaking out now, he said, because he no longer has to worry that his “radical views” might damage the reputation of American or that of the companies he served until recently as a director. The nation’s corporate chiefs would be living far less affluent lives, Mr. Crandall said, if fate had put them in, say, Uzbekistan instead of the United States, “where they are the beneficiaries of a market system that rewards a few people in extraordinary ways and leaves others behind.”
“The way our society equalizes incomes,” he argued, “is through much higher taxes than we have today. There is no other way.”
The New Tycoons
The new Gilded Age has created only one fortune as large as those of the Rockefellers, the Carnegies and the Vanderbilts — that of Bill Gates, according to various compilations. His net worth, measured as a share of the economy’s output, ranks him fifth among the 30 all-time wealthiest American families, just ahead of Carnegie. Only one other living billionaire makes the cut: Warren Buffett, 16th place.
Individual fortunes nearly a century ago were so large that just 30 tycoons — Rockefeller was by far the wealthiest — had accumulated net worth equal to 5 percent of the national income. Their wealth flowed mainly from the empires they built in manufacturing, railroads, oil, coal, urban transit and mass retailing as the United States grew into the world’s largest industrial economy.
Today the fortunes of the mega rich are spread more widely. In addition to stock and stock options, low-interest credit has brought wealth to more people--by, for example, aiding the sale of individual businesses for much greater sums than in the past. The fortunes amassed in hedge funds and in private equity often stem from deals involving huge amounts of easy credit and vast pools of capital available for investment.
The high-tech boom and the Internet unfolded against this backdrop. The rising stock market multiplied the wealth of Bill Gates as his software became the industry standard. It did the same for numerous others who financed start-ups on a shoestring and then went public at enormous gain.
Over a longer period, the market lifted the value of Mr. Buffett’s judicious investments and timely acquisitions, and he emerged as the extraordinarily wealthy Sage of Omaha, in effect, a baron of the new Gilded Age whose views are strikingly similar to those of Carnegie and Mr. Weill.
Like them, Mr. Buffett, 78, sees himself as lucky, having had the good fortune, as he put it, to have been born in America, white and male, and “wired for asset allocation” just when all four really paid off. He dwelt on his good fortune in a recent appearance at a fund-raiser for Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is vying for Mr. Buffett’s support of her presidential candidacy.
“This is a much richer country than 10, 20, 40, 50 years ago,” he declared, backing his assertion with a favorite statistic. The national income, divided by the population, is an abundant $45,000 per capita, he said, a number that is made high by an affluent class in the nation. But it also obscures the large numbers of people with low or no incomes: When analyzed closely it is seen as a lopsided income distribution; the high $45,000 is skewed or distorted high by inclusion of the mega high incomes of the mega rich.
“Society should place an initial emphasis on abundance,” Mr. Buffett argued, but “then should continuously strive” to redistribute the abundance more equitably.
No income tax existed in Carnegie’s day to do this, and neither Mr. Buffett nor Mr. Weill push for sharply higher income tax rates now, although Mr. Buffett criticizes the present tax code as unfairly skewed in his favor. Like Carnegie, philanthropy is their preference. “I want to give away my money rather than have somebody take it away,” Mr. Weill said.
Mr. Buffett is already well down that path. Most of his wealth is in the stock of his company, Berkshire Hathaway, and he is transferring majority of that stock to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation so the Gateses can “materially expand” their giving.
“In my will,” he has written, echoing Carnegie’s last wishes, “I’ve stipulated proceeds from Berkshire shares I still own at death will be used for philanthropic purposes.”
Revisionist History
The new tycoons describe a history that gives them a heroic role. The American economy, they acknowledge, did grow more rapidly on average in the decades immediately after World War II than it is growing today. Incomes rose faster than inflation for most Americans and the spread between rich and poor was much less. But the United States was far and away the dominant economy, and government played a strong supporting role. In such a world, the new tycoons argue, business leaders needed only to be good managers.
Then, with globalization, with America competing once again for first place as strenuously as it had in the first Gilded Age, the need grew for a different type of business leader — one more entrepreneurial, more daring, more willing to take risks, more like the rough and tumble tycoons of the first Gilded Age. Lew Frankfort, chairman and chief executive of Coach, the manufacturer and retailer of trendy upscale handbags, who was among the nation’s highest paid chief executives last year, recaps the argument.
“The professional class that developed in business in the ’50s and ’60s,” he said, “was able as America grew at very steady rates to become industry leaders and move their organizations forward in most categories: steel, autos, housing, roads.”
That changed with the arrival of “the technological age,” in Mr. Frankfort’s view. Innovation became a requirement, in addition to good management skills — and innovation has played a role in Coach’s marketing success. “To be successful,” Mr. Frankfort said, “you now needed vision, lateral thinking, courage and an ability to see things, not the way they were but how they might be.”
Mr. Weill’s vision was to create a financial institution in the style of those that flourished in the last Gilded Age. Although insurance is gone, Citigroup still houses commercial and investment banking and stock brokerage.
The Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 outlawed the mix, blaming conflicts of interest inherent in such a combination for helping to bring on the 1929 crash and the Depression. The pen displayed in Mr. Weill’s hallway is one of those Mr. Clinton used to revoke Glass-Steagall in 1999. He did so partly to accommodate the newly formed Citigroup, whose heft was necessary, Mr. Weill said, if the United States was to be a powerhouse in global financial markets.
“The whole world is moving to the American model of free enterprise and capital markets,” Mr. Weill said, arguing that Wall Street cannot be a big player in China or India without giants like Citigroup. “Not having American financial institutions that really are at the fulcrum of how these countries are converting to a free-enterprise system,” he said, “would really be a shame.”
Such talk alarms Arthur Levitt Jr., a former chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, who began on Wall Street long ago as partner with Mr. Weill in a stock broker firm. Mr. Levitt has publicly lamented the end of Glass-Steagall, but Mr. Weill argues that its repeal “created the opportunities to keep people still moving forward.”
Mr. Levitt is skeptical. “I view a gilded age as an age in which warning flags are flying and are seen by very few people,” he said, referring to the potential for a Wall Street firm to fail or markets to crash in a world of too much deregulation. “I think this is a time of great prosperity and a time of great danger.”
It’s Not the Money, or Is It?
Not that money is the only goal. Mr. Hindery, the cable television entrepreneur, said he would have worked just as hard for a much smaller payoff, and others among the very wealthy agreed. “I worked because I loved what I was doing,” Mr. Weill said, insisting that not until he retired did “I have a chance to sit back and count up what was on the table.” And Kenneth C. Griffin, who received more than $1 billion last year as chairman of a hedge fund, the Citadel Investment Group, declared: “The money is a byproduct of a passionate endeavor.”
Mr. Griffin, 38, argued that those who focus on the money — and there is always a get-rich crowd — “soon discover that wealth is not a particularly satisfying outcome.” His own team at Citadel, he said, “loves the problems they work on and the challenges inherent to their business.”
Mr. Griffin maintained that he has created wealth not just for himself but for many others. “We have helped to create real social value in the U.S. economy,” he said. “We have invested money in countless companies over the years and they have helped countless people.”
The new tycoons oppose raising taxes on their fortunes. Unlike Mr. Crandall, neither Mr. Weill nor Mr. Griffin nor most of the dozen others who were interviewed favor tax rates higher than they are today, although a few would go along with a return to the levels of the Clinton administration. The marginal tax on income then was 39.6 percent, and on capital gains, 20 percent. That was still far below the 70 percent and 39 percent in the late 1970s. Those top rates, in the Bush years, are now 35 percent and 15 percent, respectively.
“The income distribution has to stand,” Mr. Griffin said, adding that by trying to alter it with a more progressive income tax, “you end up in problematic circumstances. In the current world, there will be people who will move from one tax area to another. I am proud to be an American. But if the tax became too high, as a matter of principle I would not be working this hard.”
Creating Wealth
Some chief executives of publicly traded companies acknowledge that their fortunes are indeed large — but that it reflects only a small share of the corporate value created on their watch.
Mr. Frankfort, the 61-year-old Coach chief, took home $44.4 million last year. His net worth is in the high nine figures. Yet his pay and net worth, he notes, are small compared with the gain to shareholders since Coach went public six years ago, with Mr. Frankfort at the helm. The market capitalization, the value of all the shares, is nearly $18 billion, up from an initial $700 million.
“I don’t think it is unreasonable,” he said, “for the C.E.O. of a company to realize 3 to 5 percent of the wealth accumulation that shareholders realize.”
That strikes Robert C. Pozen as a reasonable standard. He made a name for himself — and a fortune — overseeing the investment department at Fidelity.>
Mr. Weill makes a similar point. Escorting a visitor down his hall of tributes, he lingers at framed charts with multicolored lines tracking Citigroup’s stock price. Two of the lines compare the price in the five years of Mr. Weill’s active management with that of Mr. Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway during the same period. Citigroup went up at six times the pace of Berkshire.
“I think that the results our company had, which is where the great majority of my wealth came from, justified what I got,” Mr. Weill said.
New Technologies
Others among very rich argue that their wealth helps them develop new technologies that benefit society. Steve Perlman, a Silicon Valley innovator, uses his fortune from breakthrough inventions to help finance his next attempt at a new technology so far out, he says, that even venture capitalists approach with caution. He and his partners, co-founders of WebTV Networks, which developed a way to surf the Web using a television set, sold that still profitable system to Microsoft in 1997 for $503 million.
Mr. Perlman’s share went into the next venture, he says, and the next. One of his goals with his latest enterprise, a private company called Rearden L.L.C., is to develop over several years a technology that will make film animation seem like real-life movies. “There was no one who would invest,” Mr. Perlman said. So he used his own money.
In an earlier era, big corporations and government were the major sources of money for cutting-edge research with an uncertain outcome. Bell Labs in New Jersey was one of those research centers, and Mr. Perlman, now a 46-year-old computer engineer with 71 patents to his name, said that, in an earlier era, he could easily have gone to Bell as a salaried inventor.
In the 1950s, for example, he might have been on the team that built the first transistor, a famous Bell Labs breakthrough. Instead, after graduating from Columbia University, he went to Apple in Silicon Valley, then to Microsoft and finally out on his own.
“I would have been happy to partake in development of the transistor,” Mr. Perlman said. “The path I took was the path that was necessary to do what I was doing.”
Carnegie’s Philanthropy
In contrast to many of his peers in corporate USA, Mr. Sinegal, 70, the Costco chief executive, argues that the nation’s business leaders would exercise their “unique skills” just as vigorously for “$10 million instead of $200 million, if it was the standard.”
As a co-founder of Costco, which now has 132,000 employees, Mr. Sinegal still holds $150 million in company stock. He is certainly wealthy. But he distinguishes between a founder’s wealth and the current practice of paying a chief executive’s salary in stock options that balloon into enormous amounts. His own salary as chief executive was $349,000 last year, incredibly modest by current standards.
“I think that most of the people running companies today are motivated and pay is a small portion of the motivation,” Mr. Sinegal said. So why so much pressure for ever higher pay?
“Because everyone else is getting it,” he said. “It is as simple as that. If somehow a proclamation were made that C.E.O.’s could only make a maximum of $300,000 a year, you would not have a lack of very qualified men and women seeking the jobs.”
Looking back, none of the nation’s legendary tycoons was more aware of his good luck than Andrew Carnegie.
“Carnegie made it abundantly clear that the centerpiece of his gospel of wealth philosophy was that individuals do not create wealth by themselves,” said David Nasaw, a historian at City University of New York and the author of “Andrew Carnegie” (Penguin Press). “The creator of wealth in his view was the community, and individuals like himself were trustees of that wealth.”
Repaying the community did not mean for Carnegie raising the wages of his steelworkers. Quite the contrary, he sometimes cut wages and, in doing so, presided over violent antiunion actions.
Carnegie did not concern himself with income inequality. His focus was philanthropy. He favored a confiscatory estate tax for those who failed to arrange to return, before their deaths, the fortunes the community had made possible. And today dozens of libraries, cultural centers, museums and foundations bear Carnegie’s name.
“Confiscatory” does not appear in Mr. Weill’s public comments on the estate tax, or in those of Mr. Gates. They note that the estate tax, now being phased out at the urging of President Bush, will return in full in 2010, unless Congress acts otherwise.
They publicly favor retaining an estate tax but focus their attention on philanthropy.
Mr. Weill ticks off a list of gifts that he and his wife, Joan, have made. Some bear their names, and will for years to come. With each bequest, one or the other joins the board. Appropriately, Carnegie Hall has been a big beneficiary, and Mr. Weill as chairman was honored at a huge fund-raising party that Carnegie Hall gave on his 70th birthday.
The Weills — matching what everyone else pledged — gave $30 million to enhance the concert hall that Andrew Carnegie built in 1890 in pursuit of returning his fortune to the community, establishing a standard that today’s tycoons embrace.
“We have that in common,” Mr. Weill said. Amanda Cox contributed reporting.
Correction: July 19, 2007
A front-page article on Sunday about a new era of wealthy and powerful men misidentified the cable television network that the entrepreneur Leo J. Hindery Jr. assembled and sold in 1999 for $200 million. It was InterMedia Partners, not the YES Network. (He was a founder in 2001 of the YES Network, which has not been sold.)
Correction: July 21, 2007
A front-page article on Sunday about a new era of wealthy and powerful men incorrectly described the management role of Robert C. Pozen at Fidelity Investments, and referred incorrectly to his pay. Mr. Pozen oversaw the entire investment department at Fidelity; he did not manage any funds, including one that made a profit of $1 billion one year. The manager of that fund, not Mr. Pozen, was paid $15 million. Also, the article misinterpreted comments by Mr. Pozen about managing a company. Mr. Pozen was referring to the manager of the portfolio that made $1 billion--not to himself--when he said, “In every organization there are a relatively small number of really critical people.”

You may skip the items herein on religion and Finns. But the Urgent Alert here is too vital to skip. Protestant America and northern Europe are being destroyed--murdered--by the pedophile Jesuits, the Muslims, and the tribal vassals of the David-Weill and Rothschild banking clan type pests, and pests' pals: The Banking Clan Pests are RULER(s) of the RULERS of earth. Thus Protestant Nations must CLOSE BORDERS NOW: See Waldo Emerson's WARNING below. The "People Controller Clans" are making USA, Canada, Australia, and many European nations into Muslim or Catholic nations: Now into America, for example, they "encourage and help" the entry of millions of illegal Catholic aliens--and they work to have them stay. In fact, on April 9, 2006, Archbishop Harry Flynn, St. Paul, MN, said, "Mexicans and Latins have a right to enter America illegally and remain. We must welcome strangers"
This article is about: (1) controllers of people, (2) slavery, ethnic cleansing, racism, misuse of power by some religious leaders or others, (3) pyramid builders, (4) tongue of JESUS, and (5) causes of fluctuation in global warming and cooling. Now we know that the world's biggest threat is that the tribal banking clan types are working to get millions of Catholic Mexicans, Muslims, and others into America: Devil clans trying to make America--and many other protestant nations--into Catholic or Muslim nations. Their means of control of people is to create as many divisive issues within every nation as they can achieve. But I will write on the tongue of GOD and Jesus first.
When Finland had a Glacier, Finnic tribes lived elsewhere, some in Near East.
At the end of the last Ice Age, c11000 BC, Fennoscandia had cold summers and a shrinking glacier. Thus in the past Ice Age the Finno-Uralic or Finnic tribes lived outside of Fennoscandia: Some lived in the Near East and northern Africa: I will write more on this below. But first, I will write a few paragraphs on Finnic tongues, and that many tongues existed in the ancient Near East as stated in the Bible: Acts 2: 4-11.
The Bible had/has enigmatic statements. One was GOD'S voice to Moses in an alien tongue, "EHYEY ASHER EHYEY", (TO LIFE, Rabbi Harold Kushner, Little Brown, 1993, p. 146): Another was JESUS saying to Simon Peter, "You are named Kepha Kivi 'rock'; for upon this rock GOD will build HIS church", John 1:42, Mathew 16:18.
I submit that these statements were in a Finnic tongue. Moses heard GOD'S voice, "ehjä askar(oipi) ehjä" '(I AM) WHOLE, ENTIRETY, UNBROKEN, ALWAYS AHEAD, IMMORTAL, ENTIRETY, WHOLE'. And JESUS named Simon Peter, Kepha 'rock'. In Finnish it is Kivi,'rock'. For with another tongue will He speak to his people, Isa 28:11.
Now the Old Testament states that a racist foreign tribe was invading the region/land where JESUS was born. The tribe was the Hebrew or Piru 'Devil' tribe. A Finnish transliteration is the Se(He) Piru 'The Devil', The Hebrews: To Jews the term Hebrew is a pejorative--and no wonder. Yet it needs stating that not all tribes were racist.
But Judas of the Hebrew tribe was a swarthy racist against native fair Finnics: Judas was a spy, linked to term Iscariot, 'betrayer, spy'. And a Finnish term for spy is iskeä 'spy, strike, thrust,'. Note: The derivation or base of iscariot is unclear: R. E. Brown, et al., THE JEROME BIBLICAL COMMENTARY, Prentice Hall, Englewood Ciffs, New Jersey, 1968, vol. II, p. 438. Thus Judas had JESUS arrested, Acts 1:16. Like other invaders, Judas took the aborigine's land in and around Jerusalem. For Acts 1:18-19 states: Judas headlong (bloodily) thrust upon (took land from), and gushed his bowels (pooped) on the natives. This was known to the dwellers of Jerusalem; inasmuch as the land in their own tongue is Akeldama 'Field of Blood', Finnic Akkiel(s)tähmaa '(bloodily) fast taken land, field'. It is worth noting that the base (root) of name Jerusalem may be Finnic; jörö(s) (julma) 'bloody raw', alem(pi) 'lower', maa 'land, field'. Tribes still rawly fight over it. This ancient land, now Israel or Palestine, was cruelly taken long ago from Finnics, and is still the Land of Blood.
Interestingly, regarding the term "Land of Blood", if the theory that the Setos of Setomaa in Estonia and NW Russia, mentioned above, have ancient ties to the Near East then their land's name Setomaa or in Finnish Sotamaa, meaning "War Land" may have remained from times of old, when their land was a land of war and blood.
In fact, already in 8th century B.C., Arabs and Jews were roaming in desert areas in what was then Assyrian Empire. Thus King Sargon II wrote an edict (c.716-704 B.C.) 'No person shall sell or teach how to make iron to Arabs or Jews (Iron swords in their hands will help them drive us out, north)': The Correspondence of Sargon II, Part I, vol. 1, State Archives of Assyria, Simo Parpola, Helsinki University Press, 1987, p.140.
On a possible movement north of one or more Finnic tribes I add the following sentences: "The theory has been put forward that the Finns came north from Egypt many centuries ago. The Finns, and everything worthwhile, do not yield themselves at first acquaintance. They must be known thoroughly to be appreciated. When they are, it will be realized that they give a glimpse of that lost world of what-might-have-been had the upsweep of Mediterranean cultures been turned back--had the pagan Finns been allowed to go their own way and express their own thoughts in art. For Sibelius's music harks back to the Edda, the sagas, and the runes of the 'Kalevala'. Sibelius has become the musical Redeemer of an ancient faith, the Nordic Word Made Sound. An eminent historian has said that the center of creativity has constantly been moving northward: from Egypt to Greece, Rome, Central Europe--and now to Scandinavia, Finland": Chapter XIV, Finland, by Carleton Smith, internationally known music critic (in 1930's) in: C. E. Laughlin, So You're Going To Scandinavia!, Houghton Mifflin, N. Y., The Riverside Press Cambridge, 1937, pp. 358-360.
Note: Did Nubians of Sudan drive some Finnics including some Finns out of Egypt, starting in 3100 BC? For the engraved Palette of Narmer--it has Nubian King striking head of Egypt's king--may imply this. Interestingly, Finnish has term, naarmu, 'cut, scratch, strike(r's) mark'. I will add more on above and other items later. But this article will cover alarming and urgent alert topics first, next.
But before I get into alert topics, I must add a comment on the lost world of an ancient culture mentioned above: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, most likely America's greatest poet, stated that if he could choose one language for the world he would select "Finnish, abounding in vowels (with no harsh consonants)." Also the Oxford linguist and scholar J. R. R. Tolkien--author of The Hobbit--wrote that studying the Finnish language was as "discovering a wine-cellar filled with bottles of amazing [aged] wine of a kind and flavor never tasted before. It quite intoxicated me." He spoke on the need to find our ancient roots and the importance of the mythology found in Finnish poems. These mythological ballads are full of that very [ancient] undergrowth that the literature of Europe has on the whole lost. I would that we had more of it left--that belonged to [native Finnic] English." An exciting notion: Humphrey Carpenter, J. R. R. Tolkien, Houghton Mifflin paperback edition, 2000, p. 67. Also see: Jane Chance, Editor, Tolkien And The Invention Of Myth, Part V, Tolkien and Finnish, University Press of Kentucky, 2004.
Incidentally, Professor Parpola, in the reference above, is considered by many of his peers to be most likely the greatest living Sumerologist. But I am only a retired Ph.D. Chemist, and a "lone thinker". Now as this is a 'work in progress', it may have some grammar and punctuation mistakes. I know as I have read several books on careful writing. And in rewriting and moving paragraphs about in this article, I found numerous mistakes--a disaster of some magnitude. I tried to correct errors. Yet some may remain. And if an English teacher finds an error, kindly excuse as this 'work in progress' is written by a Chemistry and not English major. One need not judge a man by the shine on his shoes; be they proper English Oxfords or snowshoes.
RULER of the RULERS of the earth: A CONSPIRACY: HENRY KISSINGER
The need to write correct English brings up the misuse of power, mentioned above, and how it is that young people today do not learn to write correct English. On March 14, 2006, The London News Telegraph had an article--and on March 18, 2006, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) aired a 20 minute report--on a study of student learning skills in various nations. The survey by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) found that the highest level of grade and high school education standards and achievement today was in Finland, followed by Korea. Sadly, England and America were rather low on the list. The report gave the reason how England was not able to educate its students at the level it once did. The reason given was that England was no longer a nation homogeneous in people types.
Now Henry Kissinger was not mentioned in the recent BBC report. But in a 1978 report on the BBC I heard him allude to an alarming conspiracy. He stated how and why the English, French--and other nations'--people after WW II were made less homogeneous. Kissinger implied that the Rothschild and Lazard Clans--world's then 2 biggest financial powers--arranged the decrease in the outward appearances (phenotypes) and cultural homogeneities of the English and French people--and other European nations' people. The conspirators' purpose was to insure that European nations had a multitude of people of different skin colors; some wearing a headgear more noticeable than a skull cap--for example, the turban. With entry of the new people types, they (the Jew) would be less noticed in Europe. They achieved this by having their controlled officials allow people--that were even more "un-European" in appearance than they were--to immigrate into Europe. After a few years of new "more unusual types" having entered Europe they--the Jews--would draw less attention; and discrimination. Thus being less noticed, they would be able to reside in England, France, etc.--with less fear of surveillance.
And here is the Big Reason why they wanted/want less surveillance of themselves. Especially from England and France--virtually undetected--they could/can best conduct nefarious financial activity. Thus today--with NO surveillance--their activity involves being the CONTROLLERS or MARKET MAKERS of the value of various nations' currencies. They determine the value of various nations' currencies by writing nefarious programs into currency trading computers: Today "tribal banking clans" keep their wealth in very secretive offshore tax havens: Thus wealth is only estimate.
With this ingratitude, the Rothschild and David-Weill Clans--and other tribal financier types--have become the Ruler(s) of the Rulers of the USA Dollar dependent world. Through their controlled politicians they "arranged/arrange" the, (l) value of various nations' currencies, and (2) that oil was/is traded with the USA dollar as the currency of payment. But Iran and some other nations do not want their oil trades and profits to go through the Jewish Clans' banking system cartel. The Muslim Oil Cartel "wants out" of the Jewish Banking Cartel: Now Imams want to control all politicians.
Today the Rothschild, David-Weill, and other tribal banking clan types, rule and control politicians by: (1) "payoffs", (2) contributing campaign monies through their directly or indirectly controlled companies and CEOs, (3) finding and controlling young men and women who they believe they can "arrange" to rise to the high rungs in the political ladders of various nations. In America, in the 1970's-1990's the "Rothschild and Lazard types" had a politician controlling or "handling club": It was the "Nate Abe Landau Club": To be a Jewish member you had to have over 50 million in wealth: A club member and the handler or "Sugar Daddy" of Bill Clinton was Robber Rubin: He became Secretary of Treasury: Under him auditing money printing was Abe Ripoff.
And Nate himself was the handler or Sugar Daddy of Al Gore: The Sugar Daddies get young politicians drunk or drugged in bed with boys or girls--and keep the negatives of their "ordered' photos of the "sexual lays". Now if Ken Lay and Baby Bush didn't stand tall, are they a tiny shy--laying low? Incidentally, both Nate Landau and Abe Abramof are the attorneys who informed some American Indian tribes that if they wanted any positive action in Washington concerning their tribes they must hire them as the Rothschild's and Lazard's politician controlling lobbyists.
The Controllers are the ones Henry Kissinger alluded to in a comment he made on the BBC news clip I heard in 1978, and mentioned above. Kissinger stated, "Before World War II, the British and French were a rather homogeneous people, and Jews looked different. After the war We arranged (conspired) that into England and France immigrated many different people types. Now Jews are not noticed." From the We, a cruel thanks to the savers of the We. The motto of the We is: We must be richest of people; divide the people, and thus Rule the people. We must work to control a nation's key politicians. Above all we must control the value of a nation's currency. And we can do this by writing program(s) in the computer(s) that trade currencies; in the manner that we "write nefarious programs" in electronic vote counting machines, to help our "controlled" candidates win.. Note: Some nations are considering an arrest warrant on Henry Abe Kissinger. To help, must we--the people--get out the guns, muskets? Or perhaps Vice President Cheney might invite the Rothschild and Lazard clans and Henry on a hunt.
Yes, the sons, daughters, and grandchildren of the people that lived in England and America before 1940 must become like the once famous American Minutemen; and get out the muskets. We must take back our countries from the inhumane tribal banking types. They now fund political campaigns; and arrange winners by having cites/counties/states use pre-programmed electronic voting machines. Fortunately, in Finland elections are paid fully by tax monies. In Finland there are very few inhumane ones creating discord--and the inhumane ones do not fund politician's campaigns. In Finland the elections are held on weekends--Saturdays, Sundays--and on paper ballots. In Finland every citizen has an identity number, and only legal citizens can vote. So Finnish citizens have honest elections; no need for muskets.
Here, on the loss of honest elections in America, I must add more. At the Philadelphia Constitutional Convention of 1787 a delegate, Charles Pinckney, recorded in his diary an alarming alert statement made by Ben Franklin: In whatever country the Jews have settled in any great number, they have lowered its moral tone; and when opposed have tried to strangle that country to death financially, as in the case of Spain and Portugal. If we do not exclude them from these United States, in this constitution (by stating it in writing) in less than 200 years they will dominate (CONTROL, RULE) us and change our form of government, for which we have shed our blood. Note: Some say that this statement is a fraud.
Yet on control and rule Waldo Emerson wrote: "The opinion of the million was to pile it over (quash the opinion of the average citizen) with strata of society,--a layer of soldiers, over that a layer of lords, and a king on top: The misery which is the badge of the Jew has made him, in these days, the RULER of the RULERS of EARTH": Emerson, Ralph Waldo, The Works of Ralph Waldo Emerson, The Conduct of Life: FATE: Houghton Mifflin, Riverside Press Cambridge, Boston and NY, 1860, 1888, 1904, pp. 34-35. Essays and Poems: Fate: by Ralph Waldo Emerson, with introduction by Peter Norberg, Barnes and Noble Classics, NY, NY, 2004, pp. 381-2.
In fact at the end of the civil war, Ulysses S. Grant, American General (later President) became so infuriated at Jews, while General in Oxford, Mississippi, that he attempted to expel the Jews. His order: 'Within 24 hours from receipt of this order, by Post Commanders, they will see that all of this class of people (Jews) are furnished with passes and required to leave'. But "CONTROLLER" Jews in Washington, through pressure, had the expulsion order countermanded by General-in-Chief, H. W. Halleck.
ON OUR BORDERS ARE NEEDED TWO ROWS OF FENCES; MINUTE MEN WITH UNREGISTERED MUSKETS, and the NATIONAL GUARD--AND NOW.
Thus, as if to alert/save Protestant America from control by the Rothschild, Lazard tribal banking clan types, oil parasites, and Catholic Opus Dei pests, Emerson wrote: "Our (Protestant) culture must not omit the arming of the man. Let him hear in season that he is born into a state [world] of war, and that the commonwealth [America] and his own well being require that he not go dancing in the weeds of peace [to be controlled by the tribal banker types, oil parasites, and Opus Dei]."
Emerson also wrote: "If the Rothschilds at Paris do not accept bills, the people at Birmingham are forced into the (beggar's) highway: Economic power touches the masses through political lords." And he wrote: "I hope," said good man to Rothschild, "your children are not too fond of money and business [banking]: I am sure you would not wish that." [Rothschild answered] "I am sure I would wish that: I wish them to give mind, soul, heart, and body to [banking] business -- to make a great fortune."
Emerson answered, "For you, O broker [banker], there is no other principle but math. For me, commerce is of trivial import; love, faith, truth of character, aspiration of man, these are sacred; nor can I detach one duty, like you, from all other duties, and concentrate my forces mechanically on the payment [making] of moneys: Emerson, Ralph Waldo, Essays and Journals, Excerpts Selected and Introduction by Lewis Mumford, Internat'l Collectors Library, Garden City, NY, 1968, pp. 18, 219, 396, 410.
In Maxims of George Washington, 1779, as President, he [allegedly] wrote, regarding currency speculators who sought to profit by taking advantage of the soldiers and others during the Revolutionary War: 'They, tribe of black gentry (Jews), work more effectively against us than the enemy's armies. They are a hundred times more dangerous to our liberties and the great cause we are engaged in. It is much to be lamented that each State, long ago, has not hunted them down as PESTS to society, and the greatest enemies we have to the happiness of America'.
Concerning Jews, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, in poem Hiawatha, wrote, "the Jews, the tribe accursed.": Edward Wagenknecht, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Oxford University Press, New York, 1966, p. 200.
Certain Controllers will say that some writings are frauds, or that the writers did not favor the then major money hungry clan, the Rothschild clan; and that their writings--against Rothschilds and coin changer Jews--should be purged, hidden, covered up. Yet as a Finnish-American I can write about a cover-up of the greatest holocaust of all: Some 30 million Russian Slavs and c10 million blond Finno-Uralics were starved or murdered by the Jewish leaders of the Russian Communist Party and Russian KGB: The KGB still exists under another name. Oh. Oh. My buddy, my puppy is barking, saying, "Hey master, stop typing. Shut down the computer. Just now on a leash went by a girl doggy. So take me for a walk. I must check her out--NOW."
So here, before I take my golden retriever to exercise his nose--only his nose, poor fellow--I cite 3 authors who wrote on cruel racist activities by Jews and Russian Slavs: Arthur Koestler, John Sacks, and Mayme Sevander: Their books are cited later.
Unfortunately, their books are not to be found anymore in bookstores or in libraries--if they ever were in libraries. The controllers have the money, money, money, to buy, buy, buy, control, control, and control. But please do not let the controllers control our muskets. And let us--not them--control our borders against millions of 'interesting types' turning our Protestant Nation into a Roman Catholic Nation. The Controllers are working to bring more Catholics and Muslims into America, and Canada. They want each and every Nation to have many different religious and ethnic factions or groups to struggle against each other. THE CONTROLLERS MOTTO: DIVIDE AND CONQUER. Note: Opus Dei Roman Catholics, in collusion with the Rothschild tribal banking clan types, have more countries that are under Catholic control; than Protestants have nations that are Protestant. PROTESTANTS MUST WAKE UP.
And my protestant puppy chimes in, "Americans must have National Guard Troops home with Minute Men on our borders, as pest controllers; and have 2 rows of fences along our borders, as Finland and Norway have on their borders with Russia--Right Now." Yes, the National Guard, Minute Men with chin high Irish Wolfhounds--and Cheney with a musket--would scare 'em. Also perhaps we could have the Catholic's sinister Opus Dei sect, and California and Minnesota Archbishops, Roger Maloney (Baloney) and Harry Flynn--who love and protect pedophiles, and Mexican and other Catholic illegal aliens--to be near Cheney; offering musket guidance, but no wine.
BLOND SLAVERY
As stated above, at end of last Ice Age, c11,000 BC, Fennoscandia had a shrinking glacier, and summers were cold yet. Thus in the past Ice Age the Finno-Uralic or Finnic tribes lived outside of Fennoscandia in four directions, areas: (1) south toward or around the Mediterranean Sea, (2) southwest in England, Spain and Mexico; also (3) east in Central Asia. In Central Asia they left evidence of past selves--as blond mummies, c4000 years old: The Finns are most white-blond of tribes--91 %: The Central Asia mummies likely were of people that had genes from both Finno-Ugric and Indo-European tribes. And area four was the Near East and northern Africa.
There are at least two historical items that support that some Finnic tribes once lived in the Near East and northern Africa--and support my theme that GOD and JESUS spoke a Finnic tongue. Two supporting historical items I mention now, others later. The first item is the phenotype or outward appearance of David. In I Samuel 16:12: The Lord favored David and anointed David as his skin was 'ruddy'-pigmented or pink-hued. And in I Samuel 17:42: The Philistine disdained David for he was 'ruddy, and of a fair countenance, blond'. The second item involves ancient Egyptian reliefs. They show that in c1100 BC the earth had people of four color types or phenotypes: They were: (1) Black, (2) Brown, (3) Yellow, and (4) White. The fourth had white skin and brown hair. They lived in Libya. Today some people in the mountains of Libya and Africa's other northern Atlas mountains--some of the Berbers--are blonds.
Now, unlike the natives in North America, those in South America used captives from other tribes as slaves--beasts of burden: LATIN AMERICA, William R. Shepherd, Henry Holt & Co, NY, 1914, p. 39. Thus many pyramids were built with slave labor: Pyramids tell of slavery and bloodletting. The early natives of Mexico used as slaves blond Finnics. And Arabs used as slaves blond Berbers: The Turk and Arab Mullahs murdered Berbers, except for some that hid in parts of the Atlas Mountains. Also Spanish Catholics exterminated the original natives of the Canary Islands, the blond Guanches. And Spanish Catholics with the urging of most of their Priests--but not all--first made slaves, then later murdered the original natives in Cuba and many areas of South America. Also Spanish and Portuguese Catholics made slaves of people from Africa and sent them to the Americas. In any case, photos of remaining blond Berbers, and ancient drawings or paintings of blond Guanches, including blond slaves in the south are found in a book: KON-TIKI MAN, Thor Heyerdahl with Christopher Ralling, Douglas & McIntyre, Vancouver, Canada, 1991, pp. 180, 300-2. The blond mummies of Central Asia are in: THE TARIM MUMMIES, J. P. Mallory, Victor H. Mair, Thames & Hudson, London, 2000, pp 17-24.
Up into the 1700's the Roman Catholic hierarchy, the Muslim hierarchy, and the Greek and Russian Orthodox hierarchy trafficked in slaves to various parts of the world: For example, the Spanish Catholic hierarchy sent slaves from Africa to the New World. And the Italian and German Catholic hierarchy had members of their faith capture and send blond Estonian, Finnish, Livonian, Norwegian and Swedish girls and boys to Italy and Rome. The same inhumane sex trade in young Finno-Uralic and other blonds was carried out by the Orthodox High Priests and the Muslim Mullahs. They had their religious followers go north, capture and send to the south many blonds as sex slaves.
In fact the hierarchy of all 3 religions condoned the scalping of long haired blonds, be they men or women. The blond scalps were sent south. As there were no blond women in the south, men in the south would buy the blond scalp hair pieces to put on their ladies. This was known as the "Blond Scalp Trade". In fact this is the reason that in times past some blond people--long haired men, women, boys and girls--in northern tribes shaved half their heads: This made scalps worthless. Sadly, because there was money to be made, Swedish Vikings would capture and send south, down the Volga River, blond Finnic girls and boys to the Mullahs and their followers.
Trafficking of young girls and blond boys (pedophilia) still occurs in Eastern Europe. There the former and current Communist Leaders and Racketeers are very inhumane. Today the Russian and Chinese secret police and Mafias send girls and blond boys--also Chinese girls--to Dubai, Iran, Saudi Arabia for use in sex. I know as from the late 1960's I have lived half my years in Europe, a mite in Russia: The Mafias sent and send girls and blond boys everywhere, even China. Having lived in Europe, I learned much that is not in history books. Gratefully, in recent years the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has had reports on ethnic racism and inhumane sex slavery in news segments on Dubai and other nations. Blonds never had more fun.
Language and Ethnic Racism have Twisted our Knowledge about Our Roots.
To begin, I hold that "language racism" and ethnic racism have distorted or twisted the Biblical knowledge about the tongue or language of GOD and JESUS. I state that the tongue was a Finnic tongue. I will give facts to support my theory below. In the past due to the idea that one race and its tongue is superior to another race and its tongue the Biblical scholars and others were not able to--or did not want to--correctly understand and transliterate the words of GOD and JESUS.
Thus we need to pray that GOD will have scholars learn the Finnish language. Yet some Biblical Scholars and others may feel they are too old to learn Finnish. If that be the case, then they may desire to guide the next generation of young minds to learn Finnish. For it is those people who read and speak Finnish reasonably well that are best able to weigh the part of this article that is about the tongue of GOD and JESUS. Readers however will readily understand the other topics in this article.
The main part of this article concerns the theme that the tongue of JESUS was Finnish, and how GOD by Global Warming made it so. To glean the revolutionary meaning of the possibility that the tongue of GOD and JESUS was Finnish--and to better understand the Bible--the Biblical scholars should know the Finnish tongue. Thus scholars and others who do not know Finnish would find great value in having access to an English version of the recently published Finnish Etymological Dictionary. Sadly, it is as yet only available in Finnish.
Thus hopefully many will pray that GOD and JESUS will move a foundation, perhaps Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation, to fund the translation--by Finns--of the recently published Finnish Etymological Dictionary into English. And in anticipation we say to Bill and Malinda Gates, "Kiitos" Thank you. Also the Gates family may want to become members of Blogstream--it's free: Members can add a comment at the bottom. Oh yes, I am a Microsoft customer. But I buy other products too. I believe in free and open competition. Ahem. Incidentally, I do not know anyone at Blogstream.
Billionaires try to catch up with the Rothschild and Lazard tribal clan types: The "Pest-types" are worth estimated c2 trillion US. Their offshore tax haven accounts are never audited by governments: Thus 2 trillion is only a guess.
Now we average people are realists. We know the Mega-Rich of all nations put their money into offshore bank accounts and foundations. They do so in order to avoid paying taxes: The tax revenues would help all nations deliver humane services to all of their citizens; for example, proper health care for all. Incidentally, the Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation's own report shows it gave a major university in its home state $1000.00--one thousand dollars. That a way to go Bill and Malinda.
Of course we average folk of the world need to feel compassion for the mega-rich, the multi-billionaires. They are paying politicians in order to have nations not place taxes on them--the mega-rich. Now why do we need to have compassion for the billionaires and allow them not to pay taxes? Simple answer: Mega-rich need to avoid taxes so they can try to become trillionaires--catch up with the Joneses: Oops; I typed wrong: I must type--catch the Rothschild and Lazard tribal types, worth c2 trillion. Like the tale of the tortoise always falling further behind in its race with the hare, the "turtle billionaires" have a long way to go to catch up with the "hare trillionaires"--and they never will. But Bill Gates is trying. That away to go Bill--at our expense.
Here I must add an alarming alert concerning how the world's "mega-wealthy hares" are running away from us "slogging sloggers", and the "wealthy turtles" like Bill Gates, Warren Buffett or the Walton family. How the "Hog Hares" are running away from the "Tiny Turtles" is explained in a recent economic activity research paper, "Where Did the Productivity Growth Go", Ian Dew-Becker and Robert J. Gordon, Brookings Papers on Economic Activity 2005, no. 2, pp. 67-127. The study states that between 1972 and 2001 the wage and salary income of Americans at the 90th percentile of income distribution rose only 34% or 1% a year, while income at the 99th rose 87%, income at the 99.9% rose 181%, and income at the 99.99th percentile rose 497%. Thus, as the Rothschild family clan's income--although not US citizens--can be placed at the 99.999 percentile; the clan's income rose above 1000 %: But, to catch the clans or hares, the turtles keep trying: And slogs do not even try. We have no hope.
Yet Warren Buffett tried. Warren thought he could be a "Market Maker" in electronic foreign currency pits by recently betting against the dollar with 20 billion US. He lost "big time". Relative to the Hog Hare Trillionaires (Rothschild Clan and their controlled coin changer scum), the Buffett's 20 billion is chump change. With their own personal trillions, and with the trillions in currencies of various nations they control, the Hogs (Pigs?) are the Mega Market Makers in foreign currency trading. Hey Warren, before you again dabble with your tiddlywink 20 billion in foreign currencies, give me a holler.
Warren must rather have his Berkshire Hathaway Combine or Group make shirts in America--and oh yes, make g-strings, thongs. Somewhere in tiny print Warren could have a slogan, 'Made in America by American women for American Men's eyes.
Yes the turtles are trying to catch the hares. But they never will. Yet we pay the price. We feed both the turtles and the hares.
Will our prayers to GOD and JESUS throw the mega coin changers out of the temples? Oh if we only had hunting with the Rothschild-Lazard types some Cheneys.
Meanwhile, many of us pay over a thousand dollars for a computer. And what do we get? Answer, deeper in debt.
The reason I have digressed here is to hopefully inspire some mega-rich person--I think I lost Bill--to fund the printing into English of The Finnish Etymological Dictionary. My pastor recently said, "Will, you may be onto something. But scholars can not know if your theory is correct, or weigh it, as few know Finnish. And even if they did know Finnish, they surely would find an English version of the Finnish Etymological Dictionary most helpful. Thus let us pray that the University of Helsinki gets a wealthy donor to fund this most worthwhile task." P.S. I have spoken recently with the Professor who is regarded by most of his peers to be the world's greatest living Sumerologist. But he does not know I am sending out this appeal for funds--not to his "Sumerology" Department, but to the Finnish Language Department. And if the Chancellor of Helsinki University finds out I have a Swedish last name, and I wish to help Finland, he may ask, "Are you sure the good doctor is not a Martian?"
Incidentally, here I say that no one is too old to learn new knowledge. I am an example. At age 67, I began taking courses on computers; the internet, creating a Web Page, HTML, etc. Now one can use Unix/Linux, or Macintosh system software. But one can also use Microsoft Windows software without your computer getting infected with a virus, worm; or other "nasty"--provided you run every morning, the four "cleaning" products that I now mention: These four you can run at the same time--called multitasking--or separately. Again I most urgently stress that you run all 4 of these EVERY AM: One is Symantec's Norton Antivirus. As its run requires some 50 minutes, run it during your breakfast. Next run Ad-Aware SE Personal: It takes 9 minutes. Then run Trend Micro Anti-Spyware: It takes 5 minutes. And last one I need mention completes a run in 9 minutes; and can be set to run automatically every 24 hrs. It is Microsoft's Windows Defender (Beta 2). Hey Bill, Malinda--a testimonial.
MOSES, CLIMATE. Also ANCIENT PRE-GREEK PEOPLE WERE MOST WHITE
There is a most important climate fact that supports and explains how the tongue of GOD and JESUS was a Finnic tongue. The climate fact is that over many centuries the global average air temperature fluctuates, and climate fluctuates. And in turn these fluctuations can cause huge shifts in environments. I state that the climate in the Near East before the time of Moses and JESUS was colder than at present. This explains how it may be that the tongue of JESUS and GOD was a Finnic tongue.
For to the reader I must explain how some Finnic tribes were in the Near East and Egypt when GOD and JESUS spoke. And only if Finnics were in the region--as a native indigenous people remaining from a prior colder more ancient age--would it then make sense that GOD and JESUS would speak to the people in a tongue the people of the region still spoke; before they encountered racism, expulsion, and ethnic cleansing: These encounters caused their tongue in the region to die.
Most likely even loan words obtained from tongues of the conquered tribes were purged from the tongues of the more dark-pigmented invading conquering tribe(s): BLACK ATHENA WRITES BACK, Martin Bernal, Duke University Press, Durham, NC, 2001, pp. 4, 5, 111, 123. But GOD made certain that some words remained, that Finns remained; and that a Finnish-American lived long enough or at the right time to entice and stimulate the minds of scholars.
Before presenting more linguistic evidence below that JESUS spoke a Finnic tongue, I will now present as evidence GOD's words to Moses who was one person in the area. Here I may be getting ahead of my story when I just now only say that poor old Moses was a recent invader into the areas where there were Finnics, and other tribes, but not yet Hebrews. GOD knew that Moses was not a Finnic.
Thus at the burning bush (Exodus 3:14) GOD spoke to Moses in what I submit was not Hebrew but Finnish, yes Finnish. To Moses GOD's tongue was enigmatic: TO LIFE, Rabbi Harold Kushner, Little Brown, NY, 1993, p. 146. Also: THE JEROME BIBLICAL COMMENTARY, R. E. Brown, J. A. Fitzmyer, R. E. Murphy, Prentice Hall Inc, Englewood Cliffs, N.J., 1968, p. 50. (Earlier I transliterated GOD's statement.) So poor Moses was befuddled. He did not understand the tongue of GOD.
And sadly they still don't. In fact Hindus, Muslims, Jews and others may want to accept JESUS as their Savior. It would stop the murder of people, Hindus, Muslims, Jews, and others. Already there is a growing movement for JESUS, JEWS FOR JESUS. I will write more on All for JESUS later below.
Here I must add four words of kindness to the men of the cloth, such as the Mullahs, and Rabbis: Don't worry, be happy. When you accept JESUS you will still be religious leaders, teaching out of the New Testament. Yes, you will still have an income. Although I am not a Methodist--and certainly not a George Bush Texas oil rich Methodist--you all could be, for example, Methodist Ministers. Now that I think of it I had better send this article as an email blog to the Chechins, the Chinese, and Russian President Putin. Imagine if Putin became a Methodist. Why he might allow Karelia, Ingeria, Setoland, Vepsland, and Kaliningrad (former Samland) freedom to join Finland, or become Independent Nations. And remember that I said I am not a Methodist. But I can not be a Norwegian or Swedish Lutheran, or Russian Orthodox. They all took much land from the Finnics.
Now, as alluded to above, during and after the last Ice Age much of northern Eurasia was extremely cold, covered partly with glaciers. And people did not live under the ice. Thus I suggest that Finno-Ugric tribes lived elsewhere, some south. To support this possibility, I submit the drawings found on cave walls in central and southern Europe. The drawings were made during and after the last Ice Age. They depict people husbanding or handling reindeer. Today only Finno-Ugrics husband reindeer.
I suggest that a part of the southern region--where some Finnic tribes lived--reached yet further south: The southern part was in the Near East and the northern part of Africa: And the Finnic tribes obviously spoke Finnic tongues. But we and our ancestors, when in school or church, were not told about this. This was due to a most inhumane racism that was carried out against white-pigmented Finnics. Remember that I alluded to this in the beginning of this article. And here we must note what an ancient Egypt's High Priest said to the swarthy Greek, Solon, in c600 B.C., "You Greek invaders of the land where you now live are a young people. Before your invasion into where you now live, there lived (in Greece) a people most fair, white".
GLOBAL WARMING and COOLING FLUCTUATION
To find evidence for climatic fluctuations the sedimentary rock geologists (stratigraphists) have studied High Asian loess. So what is loess and what can High Asian loess tell us about past global climate variation? Loess gives us an answer as follows: Loess consists of hardened stratified layers of strong wind-blown soil, sand, silt, clay, dead organisms and dust. Now the loess in High Asia is most unique in regards to what informational data and facts it has stored, and can yield. For it was formed by strong winds carrying fine material from many regions of the globe. The wind deposited the material in High Asia over the past 2.4 million years. The stratified ancient layer types in this particular High Asia loess provide scientists strong evidence for past mild spans of global warming, and severe cold spans or Ice Ages: Most importantly, the layers tell when and how long each span existed.
In 1978, in then Communist East Germany, a Chinese geologist showed me the layer data. And the High Asia stratified loess layers predict the following: For the near future--of the next several thousand years--the current warm age remains and grows: The global average air temperature will creep to rise in a seesaw pattern from a current 58°F to near 72°F in another 8,000 years, before the next downturn. I will discuss this topic more, with facts, latter.
Here, however, I will present my hypothesis about the mechanisms for the causes of climatic fluctuations. In 1955 I met the Department Chairman of Meteorology, University of Wisconsin, Professor Werner Suomi. He is the "Father" of America's or NASA's satellite cloud weather surveillance program. I presented Dr. Suomi my hypothesis. Now in 1955 scientists did not know what the origin of heat within the earth was: And scientists do not have an absolute proof for its cause today. Some believe the heat arises from material 4000 miles high pressing down on the earth's core. Others suggest the intense heat arises from radioactive decay in the core. But one lone geophysicist, J. Marvin Herndon, believes that a five-mile wide ball of uranium burns, churns, and reacts as a nuclear power plant in the inner region of the core: The outer layer of the core is liquid; the inner core is a natural giant nuclear fission reactor: NUCLEAR PLANET, Brad Lemley, Discover Magazine, vol. 23, NO 8, August, 2002, pp. 35-42. Recently Dr. Herndon has added mantle decompression as an additional heat source: WHOLE-EARTH DECOMPRESSION DYNAMICS, J. Marvin Herndon, Current Science, vol. 89, NO 11, Dec. 10, 2005, pp. 1937-1941.
In any event, whatever its source, I presented to Dr. Suomi my theory that from the center of the earth the heat is brought upwards in a fluctuating manner by layers of very, very slow rising molten rock material or magma. Stated more precisely, the magma or mantel is composed of various phase density layers. And the reason why the heat must be carried up, rather than conducted up, by molten magma is that magma--unlike, for example, copper--is a very poor conductor of heat. Thus the heat of the earth's intensely hot core is carried very slowly up by a succession of stacked phase density layers. And the layers are stacked one above the other--as onion layers are stacked. Each molten layer turns over--most slowly. In doing so each layer releases some of its heat to the next less heavy layer above it. After the heat is carried up through several layers the heat finally reaches and warms the earth's crust.
Now the earth's crust is found both under water bodies such as oceans and also in areas that are not covered by water. In some areas of the crust the heat reaches the very top surface as volcanoes or hot pipes. And these are mainly under oceans. No one knows what determines where volcanoes rise. In any event, in those areas of the crust where there are no volcanoes the heat is released directly into the crust causing the internal crust areas to warm up: These semi-hot areas in the crust can be thought of as semi-warm hot plates or radiators in a room. Their heat warms the air in the room. As stated the heat is carried up in a fluctuating manner. And, as stated, I hypothesize that the heat from the earth's core rises in a fluctuating manner to add heat in fluctuating amounts to the crust. And the crust in turn transfers its heat that fluctuates finally to the earth's air; and understandably again in fluctuating amounts over time. Now in lower regions of the crust--where the sun's rays and heat never reach--the crust is again heating up.
Yet the sun also warms the earth's air. And I theorize that the sun has ion gas density layers--heaviest ion gases near sun's center--which may cause a fluctuating release of radiation heat by the sun. Both the earth and the sun have fluctuating mechanisms involved in energy release. These mechanisms control the amount of heat contribution by each to the earth's air masses. The mechanisms determine the earth's global average air temperature each year. And the temperature fluctuates understandably over time. Also a huge asteroid or "rogue planetoid" hitting the earth, or nudging the earth into a slightly altered orbit may affect earth's climate. I will write more about the causation of periods of global warming and Ice Ages in earth's climate history below. Meanwhile, as implied above, adding to past climate warming were no '59 Cadillacs.
MORE on TONGUE of JESUS
Now I continue with the tongue of JESUS topic. As stated above I now first must write about racism or discrimination and its effect on our belief systems, especially on how we have come to accept what we believe to be the truth. For racism carried out by rulers and scholars has often twisted the truth. Now awful ethnic racism and "linguistic racism" occurred where and when JESUS lived, and shortly thereafter. The discrimination, racism, and cover-up were due to invaders taking the lands of the Indigenous people where Jesus lived and spoke: Sadly, as already stated, the invaders caused the tongues of the natives to die as a result of racism, linguistic purging, expulsions and ethnic cleansings: Black Athena Writes Back, Martin Bernal, Duke University Press, Durham, NC, pp. 4, 5, 111, 123. The King dictates, "You will speak only in the tongue of my tribe or die--or you may die with no choice".
The taking of lands in the Near East was done by an invading Hebrew tribe. Thus, the Biblical Judas took land. He was a swarthy racist against native fair Finnics: He had JESUS arrested, Acts 1:16. And Judas took the aborigine's land in Jerusalem. As stated in Acts 1:18-19, Judas headlong (bloodily) burst upon (took land from), and gushed his bowels (pooped) on the natives. This was known to the natives of Jerusalem; inasmuch as the land in their tongue was Akeldama 'Field of Blood': A very close Finnic term in enunciation is Akkiel(s)tähmaa '(bloodily) fast taken area'.
Now the invaders, the Hebrews and later the Romans also, "arranged" that later generations of Believers and others received twisted and obfuscated information, knowledge, history and teaching about the aboriginal people and tongue(s): The natives and their descendants were taught a cover-up. And in fact it is likely that the descendants of the original inhabitants often did not want their children to learn of--or the "Controlling Tribe" people to know of--their (the natives') true roots. Sadly this hushed cover-up was accepted by the elder(s) of a tribe(s) or a family. They accepted the cover-up in order that they and their offspring would be more accepted and fit into the controlling tribe--or save themselves from being killed.
In yet later generations the Jews wanted to be accepted by Christians. Thus to gain acceptance by Christians they claimed JESUS was a Jew: They did not want later generations to know that JESUS spoke a tongue of the native Finnics--not Hebrew.
And still later Biblical and linguistic scholars and teachers did not know--or desire to know--in what language family the tongue of GOD truly belonged when GOD spoke to Abraham and Moses; and when JESUS spoke to his followers and the people.
For to know to, (1) what linguistic family the tongue of GOD and JESUS belonged, and (2) understand and transliterate the tongue, would have required scholars to learn a new tongue--a tongue that was so unlike theirs. It would have required scholars to learn the most difficult, and yet the world's most versatile, flexible and beautiful tongue, Finnish. The Finnish tongue did not belong in the Indo-European or Afroasiatic language families. It was in the Finno-Ugric language family. Biblical Scholars, linguists, archeologists, Egyptologists, Muslim Mullahs, Imams,--even the Pope--and others must study and become fluent in a tongue(s) that are not in the Afroasiatic or Indo-European language families. To be humane is not to be a language or ethnic racist. To be open-minded is a blessing from GOD.
Incidentally, every day I ask GOD and JESUS to use me as THEY desire. But so far GOD and JESUS have not come into my kitchen to have breakfast with me. Thus one of my sons, who is a Neurophysiologist and Psychiatrist--and who attends church with his wife and children every Sunday--recently said to me, "God not having breakfast with you is a good sign". And now may you continue reading--relaxed. Enjoy.
THE CONTROLLERS
Here I must say that I have lived some 6 months per year for 30 years in Europe . Under Muslim weight, I have seen Europe sink--rapidly. Yet Americans, with GOD's guidance, may help save Europe, and the world. But we must act now. Thus I pray that God and Jesus have moved me--and will move you and others--to write alert articles, and to act--now. For the people of America and the World are now in their most dangerous time, since the years when America's first colonists revolted and won against "THE PEOPLE CONTROLLERS". They obtained freedom for us.
So who are the Controllers? The Controllers include those who are the Muslim Mullahs, Imams, and the Rothschilds: Some others are the Controllers of the Chinese, Jewish, Roman (Rome), Russian Secret Police Networks. (In the last named network the Controller is Putin.) The others include those who control the largest newspaper, television and radio networks. Sadly many, if not almost all of the people--things--in these cobweb hierarchies are HOMOSEXUALS and PEDOPHILES: THE RISE OF THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD, Count Egon Ceasar Corti, Translated from the German by Brian and Beatrix Lunn, Cosmopolitan Book Corporation, 1928; Introduction to the Western Islands edition, Western Islands, Belmont, Mass., 1972: Two "must read" source sites are on the Internet (Net): Thus in Google--type: 1)Ted Gunderson or 2)Alex Jones. But have the Controllers who have the Majority Stock Controlling Interest in AOL-Time Warner blocked or controlled access to both sites? A great article to read on The Controllers is Pat Buchanan's Whose War? at URL, http://www.amconmag.com/03_24_03/cover.html. Yes, American and British Christian soldiers must come home, from Iraq and Iran. Jewish soldiers of America and Israel must fight in Iran, Iraq and other Muslim run nations. The Controlling Types, the Rothschild and Lazard Clans, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Robber Rubin, and USA Zionist Senators and Congress people, must be in the front lines.
The Controllers in recent years have rather successfully hindered our fishing group, Fish and Wildlife Unlimited. For many years, beginning in 1959, we appeared on many radio and TV stations--some aired nationwide. Yet recently we have not been on radio shows (not even on tax supported ones), except on the ERSKINE OVERNIGHT Show? But Erskine is heard live Sundays, 12:06 AM-2:59 AM, E.T: Now at Midnight, Saturday, people are asleep, or going home, half drunk. However, people in other nation's time zones may be awake, and hear the show on the Internet. And Americans can time their radio to record it live, and later play the show. Can the Controllers, who have a major stock interest in one or more ISPs (Internet Service Providers), or Search Engines, soon decide what may be heard or seen on the Net?
Now at the start of the American people's revolt against the Controllers, Paul Revere rode a horse and yelled, "The British are coming". Yes, JESUS, acting like Paul Revere, has an alert to the people of the world, The Muslims are COMING--but, NOT to Heaven!
Thus we people must save America and the world from the Muslim Mullahs. People in non-Muslim countries must stop the sermons and proselyting by Mullahs--just as the Mullahs stop Christians from spreading the Good News of JESUS and GOD, in countries that they control. The people in non-Muslim nations must close Muslim brain washing schools. They must stop the Mullahs' inhumane use of "petro-dollars" dollars gotten for oil-- and now. Politicians in non-Muslim countries must fast enact laws that stop Muslim Hawala-mode of wealth (gold and funds) transfers. These funds support terrorist or other inhumane acts: Hawala transfers, untraceable.
Thus I write this article to alert us Americans whose ancestors were here before 1910 to take back America from the Oil Billionaires, the "Campaign Funding COIN CHANGER Sugar Daddies", and the Muslim Hawala petro-dollar money controllers. We Americans must: (1) keep unregistered guns at home, (2) defend our borders, and 3) fund all political campaigns fully with tax dollars, as they do in Finland. Only by doing this will we save both America and the people of the world from an otherwise most hideous doom. We Americans must again have the courage and intelligence of Thomas Paine, George Washington, Andrew Jackson, and Paul Revere.
But many say it is too late to save America. Many say that corrupted voting, and the need for mega amounts of money to fund political campaign ads, have killed America. Many say that an "arranged" high gasoline price is fast becoming the way of people control--people movement control. Many say that finding a cheap alternate energy source to propel cars (for people movement) will never be allowed by the CONTROLLERS. But hopefully Americans will pray to GOD/JESUS to guide and help Americans to free themselves from inhumane hands of the Controllers.
Here I alert readers about the threat of people being controlled--People Control. This threat is carried out by Muslim Mullahs, Imams, the Israeli Mosad, illegal Mafia type migrants, and the likely very sinister groups in the Catholic Church, the Opus Dei and Jesuit Order. They all move untraceable wealth, drugs, and illegals between nations. They also abduct and murder children for pedophilia.
Before I proceed, I want the readers to know that it was the Finns who, in recent history, won against the controllers. By doing so they were the first by their own written laws to allow growth of humaneness amongst peoples: The Finns were first to allow freedom of speech, allow women equal rights, and allow people to have a 5 day, 40 hour work week: Others in the world followed--but only partially. That is sad.
I say sad because there is now a most inhumane threat to all living entities, even plants, in the world. The threat is the Muslim Mullah(s). They instruct their misguided followers to delivery death dealing systems upon non-Muslims. The systems include nuclear bombs, nerve gas, fungi, bacteria, guns, and viruses. The Mullahs through their sermons and orders may tell their faithful followers to deliver these items by way of missiles, planes, suitcases, ship containers, ships, boats, trucks, cars, or even bikes. (They may even use migrating predators or raptors as delivery means.) The Mullahs have not allowed a humane way of living for those under their influence. And they want to take away humaneness from all peoples. The Mullahs want to convert or kill non-Muslims: The Turkish and other Mullahs did this to the Finno-Ugric peoples, Christian Armenians, and indigenous peoples of Turkey and North Africa: THE THIRTEENTH TRIBE, Arthur Koestler, Random House, NY, 1976, p.126, and other pages.
Incidentally, the facts in the above book support that some 95% of the ancestors of the world's Jews are from east of the Ukraine and far southern Russia: Yes, 95% of the Jews are not from the Near East. It may be of great importance to know that in the 1960's the number of Sephardim Jews, who are descendants of Spanish Jews, was estimated at only 500,000. But the Ashkenazim, who are descendants of peoples of the ancient Khazar Empire north of the Caucasus Mountains and east of Ukraine, numbered about 11 million. These figures are on page 181 of above Koestler's book.
For daring to publish his book Arthur Koestler, although a Jew, got "much heat". The reason was that the Jews wanted (and want) to have an area of land in the Near East--or somewhere. Getting the world's people to believe (wrongly) that for 95% of the Jews the Near East was their homeland would help the Jews to get a land area in that region as their own. In a land area where they are the masters they could (and can) initiate and mastermind certain activities undetected--protected from surveillance. They could (and can) master mind: (1) spying, (2) nefarious economic activities, (3) creation of discord among nations (divide and conquer), and (4) "interesting jobs". One such job was an attack on the American ship, the Liberty. Another action was the attack of a cargo ship that carried uranium. With this job Israel got the uranium for their atomic bombs.
Interestingly, the Khazars were apparently descendants of mainly Turkic and, perhaps, blond Finno-Ugric tribes: Many migrated into, or were people of, former Livonia, now northern Germany, Poland, Lithuania and Latvia. And this may explain how the Rothschild's long ago founding ancestor's name was Isaac Elchanan, a Finnic type last name: THE RISE OF THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD, cited above, p. 3. Also a famous Rabbi in the part of Livonia that became present Lithuania was Rabbi Isaac Elchanan: THE ROTHSCHILDS, Frederic Morton, Atheneum, 1962, p. 202. Also in the old testament there are some Finnic type names--implying hanky-panky, or more.
In any event, let us go back to discussing the Mullahs. The Mullahs do not teach in their schools how their followers can improve their own countries and control their internal population explosion. Instead, in the past 80 years the Mullahs, using their Muslim faith followers, have worked to enter--and fast vastly increase, legally or not--the number of Muslim faith members into Christian Europe, and into all other countries that have not yet fully converted to the Muslim faith.
The Mullah's countries sell oil to Europe and America for dollars(US)--"petrodollars". But, the Mullahs do not use their billions of petrodollars to create jobs in their own countries. Instead, the Mullahs force their Muslim countries' Kings and politicians to increase unemployment in their own countries. By this action they force their Muslim faithful to go (by any means) into non-Muslim countries to: 1) Seek work, 2) Bring their marriage partners into the countries and have many children in order to increase their Muslim numbers in the new countries. The Mullah's plans are to take over non-Muslim countries or their major cities by eventually being more numerous: Already in France, Marseilles is poised to become the first European city with a non-European majority. Some estimates hold that within 20 yrs, one in four French residents will be Muslims.
And they use their (our) dollars to build big mosques. These religious centers are used to house and employ some of their trusted Muslim faithful. The faithful are used to spy on non-Muslims, print and distribute subversive tracts, and carry out inhumane suicides: The suicide missions are sadly forced on often young, often drugged, boys.
Already in Europe there are 20 million Muslims, and growing by leaps and bounds! Thus Christians and others need to be alerted, warned, and fast. The Mullahs want to gain control of the world. They will attempt this by having their followers kill or convert the original indigenous peoples everywhere, as they did in Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Sudan, Tunisia, Turkey, elsewhere. The Mullahs know they have a good thing going--going for themselves: They do not have to do any hard work. They can just sit back, teach and preach to their misguided young men and boys to enter other lands and kill Christians or others: ESCAPE FROM SLAVERY, Francis Bok, St. Martins Press, 2003, p.227.
Meanwhile, the Mullahs and their controlled Kings or politicians count their petrodollars. And they all go to Denmark, Holland, Norway, Sweden, and Finland to "use" blond girls, and young ladies. They occasionally even airship--taped and drugged--some young blond girls and boys in their "diplomat" or "embassy" labeled large crates, or large suitcases: Crates labeled "Diplomat" are not inspected.
Yes, the Danes, Norwegians, and others have a right to print the cartoon with Muham mud in a cloud saying to young Muslim boys, who killed Christians, "Sorry boys, but there are no virgins. I used 'em".
Then Muham mud says, "Yes, you boys feel tricked. But don't call me a false prophet. I am just an unfaithful horny gigolo".
Now other people, who are not Muslims, have entered other lands. In their new land they have not done harm. Instead, they have performed good deeds. A prime example of helping other people is what the Finns did. In the mid 1600s, when Finns first came to America they taught the few other ethnic groups that had just come to the New World, and the natives, not Muslim beliefs, but how to build log cabins. Before the entry of "Finnish Log Cabin Technology" into North America many English and Natives froze: Before the entry of Finns, the English, Scottish, Dutch, Germans, and natives lived underground in sod covered pits: THE AMERICAN BACKWOODS FRONTIER, Terri Jordan and Matti Kaups, The Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore and London, 1989, pp.135-36, and other pages.
Thus, as noted above, Finns have given much to the world. But, sad to say, Finns have not been treated well by other ethnic groups. The Finns have been treated most inhumanely by the hideous Oil Billionaires, such as Armand Abe Hammer, and Money Coin Changer Billionaires, such as George Abe Soros. In the 1980s Soros tried to abscond with Nokia, a great Finnish electronics company. But Soros was thwarted, with his pants down. Yet, shortly thereafter the CEO of Nokia "accidentally" fell out of a high hotel window, while on a foreign business trip. There are many interesting ones who in the past and currently do not like Finns--perhaps Finns have been and are too honest. One group was and is the "Rothschild Family". They actually are trillionaires--worth c2 trillion US, mentioned above; this is only an estimate on their holdings.
Another group was the heads of Russia's Secret Police, the KGB, Abe Dzerzhinsky, Abe Yagoda, and Abe Kagen, along with oil billionaire Armand Abe Hammer. They guided, or were guided, by Russia's communist leader, Stalin, in the 20s and 30s. They murdered over ten million Finno-Ugric peoples--a holocaust. They did this to get at oil, mineral, diamond, gold, and timber on and under the lands of the Finno-Ugrics: HAMMER, Armand Hammer, G. P. Putnam's, N.Y. 1987, pp. 141-143, and other pages: DOSSIER, Edward Jay Epstein, Carroll & Graf Inc. N.Y., 1996, p.119. The cruelest attempts at getting Russia's wealth finds strong confirming support in 5 additional books: One is by a Jewish MD who suffered immensely in a Russian Siberian Gulag: MAN IS WOLF TO MAN, Janusz Bardach and Kathleen Gleeson, University of California Press, Berkeley, 1998. The fact that "man was and can be wolf to man" finds, sadly, added support in a second book: THE GATES OF NOVEMBER, Chaim Potok, Alfred A. Knopf, 1996.
Three more books support that some people's brain organs lack a "compassion or capable of love" center. The books are: (1) THEY TOOK MY FATHER, (2) RED EXODUS, and (3) SOVIET BONDAGE, all authored by Honorary Doctorate, Mayme Sevander. The 2 publishers of are: (1) Pfeifer-Hamilton, Duluth, MN, 1992, and the last ones, (2) McNaughton & Gunn, Saline, MI, 1993, 1996.
Another book that I must cite is: AN EYE FOR AN EYE, THE UNTOLD STORY OF JEWISH REVENGE, John Sack, Basic Books, NY, 1993. John Sack is Jewish. He researched thoroughly for 7 years about crimes Jews did to Germans. After publishing his book the "Controllers" attempted to murder Mr. Sack. Like the Danish cartoonist, he has to be in hiding. I recommend obtaining the paperback edition, 1995. The paperback has a great preface. In any case Wolves do not enter heaven. Metaphorically speaking, in Hell their ice cold hearts will finally find warmth--a plenty. The Controllers have been cruel--as they were cruel to JESUS. And to us they still are.
More on JESUS, CLIMATE, CONTROLLERS, SAVING TRIBES and TONGUES
Now let us continue. In what enigmatic language did GOD and JESUS speak? What property about the tongue made it enigmatic to some people? Was racism involved in a likely cover-up? Why did "The Ancients" build pyramids, such as Egypt's Great Pyramid? Why did the Ancients write in hieroglyphics?
Over the ages, what was the causation of fluctuation in amount and extent of heat energy that was delivered into--and through--earth's crust: What caused the fluctuating mode of convection of heat to the crust? Has this process caused the crust to become warm, and cool--very, very slowly, often? Has this process caused and will it cause not only the earth's crust but the water and air masses above the crust to warm up, and cool down, vastly, and repeatedly? Although most rare, can this happen fast?
Did a fluctuating heat flow into one or more regions of the earth's crust cause the past Warm Ages and Ice Ages? Was this heat flow mainly into the unexposed crust located beneath soils, deserts, glaciers, tundras, oceans, seas, etc? What is the mechanism that explains how our global average air temperature will creep to rise, in a seesaw pattern, from a current 58°F to near 72°F in another 8000 years before the next downturn? Answers to all these questions I will present below. But here I must add that past climate warming was not caused by cow flatus, planes or '59 Cadillacs!
Back in 1955, while studying for one of my degrees in chemistry, I presented, to a climate authority, my hypothesis on a major cause of both Warm and Ice Ages: The authority was the then Chairman of the Department of Meteorology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI.,Professor Werner Suomi. He is considered the father of surveillance by satellites of cloud and weather movements. To the above questions I will present answers below. But to some extent I already discussed my hypothesis about a cause(s) of climate global warming and cooling episodes, above. Yet I will discuss this topic more below in a few days as I only recently learned about blogs, and that blogs are the best way to reach many people. And I apologize for rearranging paragraphs occasionally. This is a work in progress.
Now for us to be able freely to communicate widely by blogging, when we are not allowed to communicate otherwise, we must thank GOD. GOD has allowed human beings to create the new blogging system: For in our case, a fishing group, and myself as an example, the Regents and Presidents of two large universities have not allowed our organization, Fish and Wildlife Unlimited, to speak: Our members gave the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service its name, nearly 30 years ago!
And nearly 40 years ago our members moved congress to pass and then President Nixon to sign the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, RICO Act. Those of us who are still alive remember when Americans fought for a humane life for all people. So, in the 50's and 60's we did not allow the air waves to be controlled by the "Controllers". But now the Controllers own mega amounts of radio stations from which they can send signals to "dumb" us down with rap crap radio noise booming in rooms and cars--and ruin our hearing: Now the controllers "dumb down" Americans.
Yet although many Americans say we are living in America's "Dumbed Down Zombie Death Age", some of us still have hope. We pray that there are still middle and young aged people in America who will act fast to take back America from the Oil Billionaires, the Ken Layes, the "Company Book Auditing" Joe Barardinos, the "Campaign Funding Sugar Daddies", like Robber Rubin who was Bill Clinton's sugar daddy--and from some inept University Presidents; many screened by controllers.
A prime example of a "laughing catastrophe" for a University President is the following: When now China graduates 300,000 engineers a year, and America graduates only 30,000, a certain large American university has as its President, not a scientist or engineer, but a Catholic Irish poet--and a lousy poet at that! Incidentally, this state's University President was "screened and chosen for the position" by the state's most powerful Republican politician. He is Chairman of the powerful Legislative Joint Finance Committee: He sends to the university much money. He is Catholic Irish. So is the Chancellor! So is the Provost! Oh the luck of the Irish; especially when a university needs as its President more than a lousy poet.
And as I write poetry, and even won prizes as a poet and artist, I surely am not anti poet. Example: When clouds on high begin to form. / And wind with swiftness starts to blow. / It's sure a sign of coming storm. / With millions of white flakes of snow. So I say to Irish poet President and Irish Regents: Get out crying towels. Put on pampers.
Before two university presidents and the Regents, our members are not allowed to speak. We want to speak on the urgent need to lower very significantly the cost of tuition for the children of our and other people. And some of our Fish and Wildlife Unlimited members who are Finnish-Americans want the people who teach the Finnish Language in some universities to be Finnish-Americans, or their descendants. But as it is now, at one major university, U. of Wisconsin, the man who teaches the Finnish language is an Irish-American and Roman Catholic.
This is inhumane discrimination and an insult towards Finnish-Americans and Finland. How would Jewish-Americans feel if this or any university in USA had a non-Jewish person teaching Hebrew language or Hebrew studies? How would they feel if the teacher in fact was a Muslim from the Sudan? In any event, it is the Irish and Jewish politicians who decide that Jews teach the Hebrew language, but the Irish Catholics teach the Finnish language. Yet Finns are not Catholic, Finns are Lutherans. And at least one Irish-American professor who teaches Finnish is Opus Dei Catholic!
The University Irish High Ones are "Outlaying Irish Ken Lay" in laying a fowl egg--pardon the pun: Ken Lay along with Joe Barardino, as CEOs of 2 companies, received notoriety in 2001 in their roles in a scam--the Enron Energy and Anderson Auditing "stocks swindle scam", a stock market cesspool: Notice how "Con Bums" will find cover under a Scandinavian name, as Anderson. Oh well, at least not Finnish.
In any case, the universities "Big Butts" are receiving Mega salaries for shuffling papers. And, instead of their really working and teaching, they use people who can not speak understandable English to teach! When I was at St. Olaf College 50 years ago, my 2 chemistry professors not only taught but they did research. Yet they had me take Speech 01 so that I would stop speaking in a Finnish accent: But 50 years ago nearly all St Olaf students were Norwegian-Americans: So their Norwegian accent needed no correcting: They did not need to take a course, with no credit, Speech 01.
In any event, one of the St. Olaf College professors discovered Mylar film for 3M corporation, and the other discovered how to combine hydrogen with other metals as hydrides in the hydrogen bomb! They were no Ken Lays using a plane to fly a USA President around, or using inhumane means to raise gas and gasoline prices. And now we have at least 3 new Ken Lays: One is Abe Shlomo Davis. He is head of British Petroleum (BP). His England based company wants to drill in Alaska's North Slope. Recently, BP reported a years profit of 20 billion US. This and the near 20 billion total profits by Exxon and Mobil Oil make all people vomit.
Another Ken Lay and Texan is "Bush Butt". He is quoted as saying, "As CEO of America, although I know nothing about how to balance books, I trust my top Financial Officer, Abe Wolfowitz--the pits--who tells me that under my sly 'off budget money spending' guidance America has the highest profit and budget surplus of any country or company in the world". It makes one vomit. For we have the worst debt ever.
And then lastly there is Cheating Cheney who set Americans a great example. He set an "honest, trust me" example by hunting illegally--poaching: For he did not spend money to buy a bird hunting stamp. And even with his wealth, he set an example on how not to prevent infecting other people's hearts with bird shot: He did not pay a factory to make him sterilized bird shot. Even when hunting with a lawyer Cheney didn't come clean. And then he tried to raise his low popularity rating by shooting an attorney! Moreover the reason the shooting was not reported right away was because either: (1) someone in the hunting party returned Cheney a favor-- socked him. Thus with a minor black eye, Cheney could not show himself to explain how he mistook a person as being a small bird; or (2) it took 2 days to get Cheney's blood alcohol level down. For any future Vice President, Cheney will be a tough act to follow.
In any case, Federal and State tax revenues 40 years ago paid for 80% of tuition at state universities. But to bring this fact--and other facts--out our members are not allowed to be guests or call in on some state's Public Radio Networks: They are not really public as the calls are screened--and twice!--before one is allowed on the air. In any event, this is a "work in progress". Thus strap yourself in your chair, or take a nap. But do come back, if you find I am not yet finished--pardon the pun. I will try my best to be a 71 year old retired Ph. D. Chemist, and now a young "bloggin blogger."
A wise human being reads an article to its end, if it has new information. Thus for everyone, including scholars of the past, this article should hopefully cause joyful thought; a desire to help find an answer to our existence, and an increase in caring.
Thus let us continue. And as we read this article let us keep in mind the opinion of the father of comparative philology, the Dane, Rasmus Rask, 1787-1832. He held that there must have existed somewhere, a great civilization that developed a tongue that was the most precise, most flexible (free) in the order of placement of words in a sentence; and the most beautiful; a tongue most magnificent for speaking, reading, and singing; Finnish. Hopefully Poles and Arabs will understand why the world's people are most fortunate that neither Polish or Arabic are the world's lingua franca.
Incidentally, a Chinese citizen and language authority, who knows Finnish, was recently on a rather widely distributed radio program: The person stated that the Chinese language and writing has no grammar; I. e., Chinese and its dialects have no rules for preferred forms in speaking or writing. Hence, China will have a most serious problem in competing in a trustworthy manner in the world economy. For, he stated, "In Chinese it is most difficult to create exactness of meaning in legal writing." He lamented, "Oh how wonderful it would have been if the Chinese had only begun speaking (and writing) in Finnish. But even for a billion people it may not be too late."
And oh yes, before I continue I must add that, as mentioned, this is a "work in progress": I will be inserting new material in various places and adding items at the end. Thus the reader may want to visit this site once a day, or week. Lastly, I write this blog in the hope that GOD wills it to be near the truth--or, in fact, the truth. And let us pray for GOD's help to save endangered tribes, peoples and tongues: These must include those belonging in the Finno-Ugric Language Family. Sadly, these people, as small nationality groups, want their membership applications to be approved--in the Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization; before it is too late. For example, United Nations members must allow that the once large but now endangered nationality groups such as the Ingrians, Karelians, Seto, Veps, Vots, and their land areas, are autonomous--free of Russian Slav language and cultural influence. Kiitos 'Thank you'. And now I continue.
Human beings have evolved to speak in many different tongues. And linguists have developed research methods that allow them to place tongues into various separate Language Families. Now in what enigmatic tongue may GOD have spoken to Moses? And in what tongue may JESUS have spoken? New transliteration supports one answer to both: The tongue was one found to be in the Finno-Ugric, Finno-Uralic or Finnic language family: It was most likely Estonian, Finnish, Livonian, Mari, Seto, Vep or Vot: The tongue did not belong in the Indo-European nor in the Afroasiatic language families: It was not Aramaic, and truly not Hebrew: Jesus was not a Jew.
Now if the tongue was a Finnic tongue, for example, Seto, then why have we not been told this? Was and is the cover-up due to racism? Could the meaning of some ancient words, phrases and sentences as understood through the ages--including some most crucial words or phrases in the Bible--be wrong? Could their meaning, as generally understood today, be wrong because they were in fact wrongly transliterated (intentional or not), or enigmatic; or their meaning was conjectured?
In what follows I will explain how past tribal, religious, and language racism was directed against the ancient Finno-Uralic language family--and against tribes and people that spoke tongues of this family: Sadly, this racism still exists. This racism almost certainly resulted in serious errors (contrived or not) in the transliteration and understanding of past statements of GOD and JESUS. Also, racism was and is most likely the major cause of our not fully understanding the statements and writings of many people that spoke tongues of the Finno-Uralic language family: The once widely distributed Finno-Uralic people and their tongues are now found only in northern Europe--with some in Russia, and only a very few in Canada and America: In some areas they are fast disappearing, a tragedy. But, yes, once they existed widely.
So why may we need to know a Finno-Uralic tongue, for example Finnish, to better understand old texts? I will disclose the answer to both the general public and to those university taught linguists who do not know fluently the generally accepted pronunciation of Finnish, Aramaic, and Hebrew. I will supply the answer by the following supporting method: I will transliterate old words, statements and writings by using my mother tongue, Finnish. Tangentially, linguist researchers are aware that tongues have dialects. But the feature that tongues have dialects does not detract from the transliterations and disclosures I shall present. Having said that, I will present some texts and then in later paragraphs I will transliterate them into English using Finnish, a Finnic tongue. Thus first I will present texts, and later their transliteration--along with interesting new information. Some texts I gave above, and state again.
In Genesis (12:1) Abraham left Ur on GOD's order, "Lekh-lekha.", Its unclear meaning was ventured most crudely as, "Lowlife, leave", (THE GIFTS OF THE JEWS, Thomas Cahill, DoubleDay, 1998, p. 62). The Book of Daniel (5:25) reads that before a hated Babylonian drunkard Belshazzar, who was next in line to be King, a hand appeared. Then the hand wrote an enigmatic sentence on a wall, 'Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin'.
There were other enigmatic statements/writings. One was GOD's voice to Moses in a tongue strange to Moses "EHYEY ASHER EHYEY", (TO LIFE, Rabbi Harold Kushner, Little Brown, 1993, p. 146): Another was when JESUS spoke to PETER, "You are named Kivi (Kiphias) 'rock', for upon this rock GOD will build HIS church", John 1:42. And yet another is: Judas Iscariot, spy, betrayer, Luke 6:16: About these, more later.
But to record the words of JESUS the writer(s) likely had a problem. They may not have been well versed in the local village dialect in which JESUS spoke. Yet they tried the best they could to record/write the sounds of the words they heard (as direct witnesses) and remembered: Or, later writers tried, as best they were able, to record the words as close to their original sound formation as had been passed down. So the word sounds of JESUS on the cross were written as, "Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachtani".
A hypothesis I present below--with supporting facts--is that all of the above sample writings and words were Finnish, or in tongues closely or distantly related to Finnish: The tongues--or one or more vocabularies--were likely descended from the ancient mother tongue of the earliest aboriginal peoples; peoples called succinctly, "natives".
The natives were the pre-Hellenes, the Pelasgians, the builders of the Pyramids, the one or more tribes in Ancient Egypt, and others: It needs noting that some of the just mentioned natives may have spoken tongues that were not in the Finno-Ugric family: Yet these tongues also were non-Afroasiatic. Here someone may dare ask if one or more ancient vocabularies were left by the mysterious Atlantians. And was Atlantis the name the inhabitants used in their own tongue for their country? Or was Atlantis a close transliteration of a Finnish word, Etelälänteen, 'Southwest'-land(ers); a name used for land or people to the southwest of the Finnics? (etelä 'south', länteen 'west')
Most important for our understanding the Good News of GOD and JESUS is that GOD, JESUS and likely some (not all) early peoples spoke in tongues that belonged to the Finno-Ugric language family. It was totally outside of another language family, the Afroasiatic language family: In fact it may be of utmost
