focus  and  is  delusional.  Humankind’s  creations  have  not
               always  been  constructive  and  all  too  often  destructive.  A
               powerful blast  can remove a boulder but often the powerful
               blast is a bomb used to destroy property and always life.




               This  brings  us  back  to  the  purpose  of  this  discussion.
               Imagination is a wonderful tool when employed for creative
               purposes.  Most  often  imagination  is  prevalent  only  in
               idleness. You have a saying, “the devil makes work for idle
               hands”,  and  indeed  it  does.  In  distress  imagination  can  be
               employed  destructively  or  creatively.  In  the  former
               (destructive) it is the consequence of the lack of hope and in
               the latter (creative) it is the product of having hope. We must
               remember that we never have a problem that is greater than
               our ability to resolve it, and there then is hope. To know that
               God is ever present in our lives, to assist us in our endeavours,
               will help us have confidence in our ability to over come all
               obstacles.  Humankind  has  suffered  suppression  from  a  few
               over many generations. I do not speak of recent history but of
               the distant past. Even before history was recorded there was
               competition.  Even  before  religion  was  invented  there  was
               competition. Every culture that has ever existed always had a
               recognition of God, of The Spirit, and eventually the conflict
               began, the competition between the ways of humankind and
               the nature of God. Humankind began to loose it's awareness
               of the importance of God and how the nature of the human
               being is imbedded in God. The human became God in its own
               eyes. As “God” humankind assumed command of each other.
