| A Typical View From The Compound |
Via ZeroHedge: "Civilizations fail when their elites change from an admired dynamic creative class to a despised Establishment of corrupt rentiers, an entrenched governing class unfit to govern."
Are we there yet? As you ponder that, here's the Collect for the Feast of St. Francis:
 |
| St. Francis of Assisi |
MOST high, almighty, and good Lord: Grant thy people grace to renounce gladly the vanities of this world, that, after the example of blessed Francis, we may for love of thee delight in all thy creatures, with perfectness of joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Of course Francis turned his back on the elite status he'd inherited and chose a different path. Not for him the life of rentier 1% luxury. As I understand it, the first Franciscan friars to arrive in England were arrested for vagrancy.
Carry on,

Civilizations fall in predictable patterns. We're on the glide path to trouble but most people whistle as they walk past the graveyard as if everything is fine. That's predictable too.
There does seem to be a pattern. Be sure to add in the extra Moloch worship factor.
