Hi Eric,
Here's another perspective, dealing specifically with the issue:
In terms of the despiritualization of the universe,
the mental process works so that it becomes virtuous
to destroy the planet.
Terms like progress and development are used as cover words here,
the way victory and freedom are used to discover butchery
in the dehumanization process...
Most important here, perhaps, is that
the Europeans feel no sense of loss in all this.
After all, their philosophers have despiritualized reality...
All European theory, Marxism included,
has conspired to defy the natural order of things.
Mother Earth has been abused,
the powers have been abused,
and this cannot go on forever.
No theory can alter that simple fact.
Mother Earth will retaliate,
the whole environment will retaliate,
and the abusers will be eliminated.
Things come full circle,
back to where they started.
That's revolution.
And that's a prophecy of my people,
of the Hopi people
and of other peoples.
