DEMOCRACY and the TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY 

Dear Reader: 

America in Confusion.  Has SELF ABUSE got out of control?

Let us examine the AIDS epidemic. 

AIDS PREVENTION THEORY

In my opinion, AIDS is a high grade killer disease that is passed to 
another person when engaging in any activity, with someone already 
infected, that would change the chemistry makeup of the blood. It is 
another disease that can only be brought 100% under control by self 
control. Example: The common cold. If you are in a draft, you will 
often get a cold if your body temperature is not right. There is no 
cure. Only a prevention. There are medicines to control and manage 
AIDS. Hopefully, improvements will continue to be made. 

Nature has a cause and effect relationship, or "What goes around, 
comes around." We, as humans, have to control and manage the 
pleasures which we engage in, but because of stress, we often lose 
control of our behavior. Stress could be caused by peer rejection, 
the job, family, etc. In other words, we must learn to live for the 
long run in society, not short-term profits. As time goes by, 
hopefully we will modify our culture to be a more results-oriented 
one versus a time-oriented culture. 

Also, because of stress, we often abuse substances which may weaken 
the control we have of our behavior. Pleasure-seeking becomes 
dominant over the desire to survive. We simply have not developed a 
strong enough self-esteem or self-worth. "Love thy neighbor as thy 
self" means exactly that. One must totally love and care about our 
self and then we can equally care for and love others. Nature (or 
God) is at all times the controlling force. 

In conclusion: We must learn proper behavior and the understanding of 
each other's culture and individuality. The acceptance totally of 
each other's inherited or learned behavior is necessary at the 100% 
level. Also, the freedom and space, in a truly free, democractic 
society, must exist to truly know thy self and have the God-given 
opportunity to develop oneself to full performance. 

Let's get on with it now and all be real!!
