The World’s Oldest Profession
The world’s oldest profession is being a politician. Biblically-speaking, the serpent was the first politician. Here we have a being pretending to be helpful, looking out for the welfare of Adam & Eve but actually committed to being self-serving and damaging to the human race.
Adam and Eve did not discern the intentions of the politician they were dealing with. They fell for the words whispered to them. They accepted the fear of loss that was planted in them by the serpent.
An effective strategy might have been to ask themselves, “How does the serpent ‘benefit’ from this ‘kindness’? Today, to grasp what is really happening, we say, “Follow the money” and you will find the driving force behind politicians’ serpentine maneuvers.
A few years ago, Senator Martinez in Florida put out two weird points in his newsletter. First, he made a strong point about the problem of having 7 political prisoners in Cuba. He overlooked us having political prisoners in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba! He also overlooked two other more important and obvious facts: in 2007 the US had 2,300,000 prisoners and Florida had the second largest increase in Federal prison population of all states. Perhaps a small bit of attention to Florida’s needs could result in a reduction by at least 7 the entire prison population.
The second point he stressed was the need for more foreign trade between the US and Latin American countries. His list of suggested trading partners EXCLUDED Cuba!
Does this look like a serpent in the garden? Does this look like a blatant vote-whore?
Senator Bill Nelson’s website emphasizes his commitment to Florida’s citizens but his office can’t be reached by phone! The website serves to present his facade of caring.
Are the practitioners of the oldest profession most accurately labeled politicians, prostiticians, or polititudes
The politicians create unreal enemies for us to fear so we turn to them for help and protection. Sounds like the pharmaceutical companies marketing new diseases so they can peddle drugs to us.
Where are the days when prostitution existed in which both parties to a transaction chose to do what was being done?
