http://www.israelshamir.net/Contributors/MarekMoscow.htm The recent Moscow anti-globalist conference was a pleasant get-together of like-minded people from East and West. One of interesting events was the presented below talk by our friend Polish philosopher Marek Glogoczowski who reminds us of vast difference between Kant's imperative and Jewish attitude, between mobility of Greeks and present immobility of obese Mammonites and other funny and apt observations. I certainly disagree with his negative attitude to the Church, but surely every one can dismiss or correct these unnecessary attacks. Israel Adam Shamir -----------Dr. Glogoczowski's commentaries are always interesting, and I always feel I gain some new insight from each one. However, his eclectic style has a way of mixing apples and oranges, which can result at times in a giant fly in his ointment. The current essay ("Why Aristotle hated bankers") is a case in point. The overall thesis is well presented, historically grounded and well argued. But at the very end of this piece, a gratuitous slam, out of nowhere and with no argument at all, is made: "Which imperative of course puts into question the ethics of Christian 'God'. This 'Lord of hosts' in order to assure the success of his global dominion, has not hesitated to arrange a Calvary for his own, supposedly beloved, Son." The imperative alluded to here is Kant's categorical imperative. But the claim that "The Lord of Hosts" (The Old Testament god) "arranged" Calvary for Jesus is self-debunking. Anyone who has ever read the Gospel account understands that what Jesus' Abba arranged was only the Kingdom of God, which Jesus and his disciples preached. It was the Jews (meaning especially the Jewish religious and civil authorities), whose interests were threatened by Jesus' message, who REJECTED this inauguration of the Kingdom of God and who subsequently "arranged" Calvary for Jesus, by their characteristic manipulation of the powers that be. Nothing is clearer than this in the Gospels. In the Gospel of John, Jesus directly accuses the Jewish leaders of trying to kill him. Other Gospels spell out the conspiracy of the Jewish leaders. I'm on Marek's mailing list, so I received an earlier version of this same statement of his some time ago. I emailed him my objection, but never received a reply. So I hope that in publishing it here on Shamireaders I can elicit his response to this vital point. His claim is fundamentally a-historical, and utterly spoils an otherwise very valuable essay. It is almost as if he has a compulsion to include at least one jab against (his mistaken understanding of) Christianity every time he writes, reminding one of the compulsion of modern (Jewish-dominated) Hollywood movie makers who feel that a modern film is incomplete if there is not one lurid sex scene included, however gratuitous.

Why Aristotle hated bankers?

by Dr Marek Gogoczowski, www.zaprasza.net/mglogo The symbolic destruction of Berliner Wall on November 9th (9-11 according to notation of date we use in Central Europe), twenty years ago, was a monumental victory of forces hidden behind glassy walls of the Global Banking System. It was the victory of super-rich bourgeoisie, thriving in Ivory Towers of their luxurious apartments, places where bourgeois stay apart from others. This was not the victory fo r common people historically known as gens (hence gentiles), dwelling on both sides of this famous borderline between West and East. As factories, as well as agricultural communities, in won to freedom post-Soviet space began to crumble after this historic event of 9-11-89, edifices of banks soon appeared as principal landmarks of our urban centers, frequently accompanied by buildings of brand new or reconstructed after the night of communism churches.

The very idea that profane, by a definition, banks are somehow linked with churches, which are supposed to assure the spiritual life of citizenry, seems to be an absurdity. Nevertheless once we read carefully so-called canonic books of Christianity, this idea makes sense. Although the Moses Pentateuch generally condemns usury, and demands the suppression of accumulated debts each seven years, its last book called Deuteronomy hence the book of deutero-Moses makes a small, only few words long, exception to this general rule: TO A FOREIGNER YOU MAY LENT UPON INTERESTS that the Lord your God may bless you in all you undertake in the land which you are entering to take possession of it (Deut, 23:21). For nearly two thousands of years, which followed the completion of the Old Testament in 5th century BC, due to the general illiteracy of gentiles, the Deutero -Mosaic recipe for world conquest was hidden from the sight of ordinary citizens. During these not-so-remote times the practice of usury, as the means of subsistence and of personal enrichment, was limited practically to the sect of Jews dwelling apart in ghetto-like suburbs of medieval towns. The invention of the printing press roughly 500 years ago, combined with the growth of cities and the translation of Bible into national languages, made odious mosaic recipes for success attractive to ambitious and greedy bourgeois. Protestant leaders accepted the limited usury as a decent activity of rich Christian citizenry. Thanks to this hebraization this word is etymologically derived from habiri, which in antiquity meant bandits banks, in particular the Bank of England founded in 1694, become centers of World Pecuniary Conquest. At present banks participate practically in all our bread earning and money spending activities. Paraphrasing the well known invocation from Gospel of John, we may say, without exaggeration that with the advent of bankers democracies the Word (of deutero-Moses) become flesh and it is dwelling among us. And the march of banks sponsored knights of Mammon, frequently under the protection of the Holy Cross of Crusaders, has not yet ended. The recent color revolutions, with their banners resembling colors of advanced stages of malignant cancers, inform us that the Gods word (Logos) o f Deuteronomy is revealing its ever more aggressive, mind killing forms. What is the general direction, into which are pushing us contemporary mega-centers of finances, located principally in City of London and at Wall Street in New York? Here I would like to anamnese, to recall the old prejudice of pagan philosopher Aristotle against men practicing usury. In his Politics he wrote Men called bankers we shall hate, for they enrich themselves while doing nothing . The earthbound Aristotle, contrary to idealist Plato, was despised by early Fathers of the Church, but his notion of corruption linked with activity of a banker was well understood by writer (or writers) of Moslem Quran. This Medieval book demands the total banishment of usury. Thanks to these damned Moslems, Aristotles biological understanding of mans doings survived through European Dark Ages, and was re-discovered in 13th century by Western Church only to be abandoned as alien, pagan influence, by Judaising Protestants three centuries later. Why Aristotle hated bankers? For a Hellene the virtue had to be continually practiced, be it only during everyday physical exercises. To remain immobile, as used to do it men of commerce sitting on their proverbial benches, was/is necessarily corrupting their spirit (literally the breath, pneuma in Greek), thus making these poor in spirit investors crippled, both physically and intellectually. The manner of life of upper classes always radiate downwards, and if atop of a society we get the Shylock (from Shakespeares Merchant of Venice) type crooks, the whole social body will soon become both physically and mentally corrupt. In contemporary USA already three out of four young men are judged, by medical staff of US Army, as unfit to perform rude tasks linked with life of an ordinary soldier. Which fact should be a warning what will happen with our youth, in case it will imitate too zealously their equals in beacon of nations. Every sedentary (in)activity, especially these which are performed in isolated from the outside world cabinets and cabins (be it cabins of motorcars), diminishes human sensory stimulations and thus automatically narrows mans endogenous, built on sensory inputs, comprehension of the world. Moreover, the necessarily limited to self-enrichment egoism of business minded people inhibits a sincere exchange of views with others. These men of commerce usually considered their clientele as a game to

prey upon. Due to this zoological realm, World Centers of Finances naturally are becoming Centers of Disinformation about the world. This last statement is a triviality very well known to our ancestors. Money, which since its very invention three thousand years ago become the Inanimate Animator of behavior of greed infested people, corrupts the vision of worshipping this deity people so much that they perceive black as white, ugliness as beauty, the old age as youth, and a coward as a knight to recall the poem of Shakespeare from Timon of Athens. This remarkable poem was quoted by Karl Marx in his short essay Das Geld (Money) published already in 1844. Marx wrote there Universality of properties of money is the essence of its omnipotence. Money plays the role of a pimp between the necessity and its object, between the life and means of mans existence. This corrupting power of money was and still is felt particularly strong in Land of the Free, it means USA, and already in 1880ies the pre -eminent New York journalist, John Swinton declared, during the party organized by owners and chefs of principal New York journals, the following: There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history, in America, as an independent press. () There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. () If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread () We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the sc enes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes. [1] As recalled it in 2007 Polish politologist Zbigniew Jankowski in a longer internet text titled AMERICANISM THE IDEOLOGY OF INTELLECTUAL PROSTITUTION [2], American barons of finances (D. Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan, P. Warburg, B. Baruch et al.) in 1915 joined their resources in order to buy, in secrecy, all important journals published in United States. Since this moment, which two years earlier was preceded by a creation, by the same Trust of moguls of finances, of private System of Federal (Financial) Reserves, the road towards globalization was set up. Where is leading us this All-American for behavioral tendencies of elites are eagerly imitated by masses Globalization Project? Zbigniew Jankowski, the author of association of Americanism with intellectual prostitution, observes: The goal of mass-media is to promote the conviction that the modern industrial culture is not the product of whatever ideology, and that views of these fellows, which are its supporters are objective, natural and healthy. This picture is created for us by priests of p ublic relations of the contemporary industrial culture. Its most spectacular product apart of heaps of rubbish and degraded biological environment is the passive, submissive and devoid of understanding of the world homo corporatus, a biological creature serving to the consumption of products of industry, and to mindless absorption of its waste. All this in an atmosphere of inoculated in him hope to achieve happiness, with which mythical illusions modern mass media are sprouting, like never exhausted geysers. The controlled by the Trust of Bankers, spirit of media, aiming at the general disinformation, is felt also in supposedly independent from pecuniary preoccupations fields of scientific investigations. Already three decades ago an English sociologist and alpinist Michael Thompson acidly remarked, in his anti-system book Rubbish Theory, which he somehow managed to publish in 1979 by Oxford University Press, that in Life Sciences we witness a systematic channeling of enquiry in order to impel knowledge ever further from the truth. Thompson referred in this remark to widely publicized at that time discovery of Nobel Prize Winner Jacques Monod that Chance is at the origin of every novelty in biosphere. The devoid of any reasonable proof, belief of numerous internationally known scientists, into validity of this scientific assertion, has become so powerful, that the close collaborator of J. Monod, later on the laureate of literary Prix Goncourt and holder of the Legion dhonneur distinction, neurologist J.-P. Changeux has made of these genetic chance events the cornerstone of his theory of learning. Inspired by Darwinian concept of origin of species by species elimination by action of Natural Selection Changeux assured his readers, in a rapidly translated into English book Lhomme neuronal

published in 1983, that Apprendre cest liminer to learn is to eliminate eliminate not only supplementary interneuronal connections, but also whole neurons, with which brains of young mammals are densely saturated during early stages of their post natal growth. The logical conclusion, which one can derive from this (neo)Darwinian Theory of Learning, suggests that the most educated scientists shall have only one neuron in their heads. It is not an absurdity. Such frivolous association becomes indirectly confirmed by an opinion of another illustrious scholar, American linguist Noam Chomsky, who in 1970ies was tutored in the domain of genetics both by J. Monod and J.-P. Changeux. Limited by the mindset he has acquired from them, in 1988 Chomsky declared thatWe have essential, overwhelming evidence that substantial aspects of our mental and social life, among them also the language, are determined as the part of our biological endowment, and that they are not acquired by process of learning, and in particular not by a training [3]. Such bizarre opinion informs us that during his conscious life as an adolescent, the future famous linguist either has not tried to learn any other than English language, either that he has amnesia concerning hours he spent while exercising his proficiency of foreign languages which languages of other nationals (gentiles) usually are disobeying, supposedly hereditarily coded, stiff rules of discovered by Noam Chomsky, universal (English) grammar. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX The demonstrated above, mente captus-type lack of understanding how novel mental associations, novel lingustical, manual and even immunological skills are constructed, is a real social catastrophe in all countries in which aggressive commercial regimes (bankers democracies) become established. And this catastrophe of non adequatio rei et intellectus it means inadequacy of objects and their mental representations which is the Aristotelian definition of falsity, we can trace back to Mind killing cultural viruses hidden in Dead Verses (logos) of Old Testament. At the end of thi s short doklad (contribution), prepared for the conference ivi, Zemlju! (Lets the Earth Live!) [4] I would like to demonstrate how these acquired, by the intermission of CIA-controlled science (CIA is understood of course as Central Imbecylizing Agency), fake, (neo)Darwinism inspired concepts of learning by inactivity are leading not only towards the Earth competitive devastation. The Lamarckian atrophy of untrained interneuronal connections logically must lead to the loss of vision of all more noble purposes of human existence. In order to put more light onto this politically incorrect topic, I would like to recall a very interesting contribution, made by the director of European Institute of International Affairs in Luxembourg, Dr Armand Cleese, during the conference Dialogue of civilizations held at Rhodes in 2003. While speaking about Americas search of a new world order Cleese stressed that United States wants a world without enemies, without threats, without risks. Therefore it is bent upon eliminating all enemies, all threats, all risks. It wants to crush any opposition . It wants a world looking up to the United States, adulating the American model, adhering to its principles and values, obeying its rules. It wants a totally Americanized world, without any diversity, without any dissidence.() The quest of the Americans for absolute, total security may lead, may even be bound to lead to absolute, total insecurity. [5] At the same World Public Forum at Rhodes in 2003 I had a short speech in which I indicated that the present project of globalization has already been outlined in prophecies of Old Testament. This sacred book of Jews and Christians predicts not only the total eradication of humans who do not serve the Lord and other wild animals, but also the construction of straight (four lanes wide?) roads of the Lord. It predicts even the flattening of difficult-to-climb hills and filling-up of valleys! [6]. Other significant verses of OT, like the one you shall be called the priests of the LORD you shall eat the wealth of nations, and in their riches you shall glory, which verses were probably written by so-called deuteroIsaiah (61, 6), are overt instructions how to behave in order to become a successful priest of the Lord of Hosts. Hosts of prostitutes of course, as Swinton and Jankowski argue in the case of contemporary Global American Empire. This New Worlds called also New Israels project of total exploitation, sterilization, decerebralization and even flattening of the Globe is surely the worst danger which our Planet has encountered during its geologically recorded history.

The problem resides in increasingly flat brain encephalographs of hyper -rich, principally JudeoProtestant-American elites, overtly dreaming of such, recognized in Bible, Earth Re -Creation. These men are used to reason in a very simplist manner, not taking into account differentia specifica between living and not living objects: a car or a bike used on bumped curvy road becomes sooner broken down, than in case it is used on a smooth and straight one. So by making straight and smooth roads and by domesticating the environment in such a way that human existence becomes devoid of necessity to perform any significant physical effort people are expected to live longer and happier. Simple, isnt it? This positivistic manner of reasoning we can trace back to Novum organum of Francis Bacon completed in 16th century. And of course in schools children shall be exempt of any stressing them tasks, for only in this manner the intelligence hidden in their genes can flourish. This is the argument of Noam Chomsky, who is truly believing in Cartesian paradigm, claiming that humans are inanimate machines, distinguishing themselves from other zoon, by their faculty of speech. But the realm which see gens (gentiles) belonging to homo sapiens subspecies is completely different from the one loudly propagandized by mentioned above chosen people (Monod, Changeux, Chomsky, Bacon, Descartes, and of course Richard Dawkins, the proud apostle of The God (of Scientific) Delusion, as confirms it this voluminous book from 2008). According to precise observations made by Swiss biologist and psychologist Jean Piaget, without appropriate physical and sensorial exercises, it is not possible to achieve more mature levels of world understanding. The unpleasant by a definition perturbations are necessary to wake up intelligence in adolescents, as well as in adults. Grown since childhood with Darwin-Cartesian blinders compared by R. Dawkins, to limiting the sight Afghani womens burkas so-called developed people are accustomed to protect themselves from all agents, which may damage their cherished DNA. Even the ordinary ultra violet of Sun is considered at present to be carcinogenic. But scrupulous radiologists have confirmed a completely inverse effect of small and even medium intensity irradiations, which necessarily perturbs the wellbeing of cellular DNA structures. A year after the catastrophe in Chernobyl, in sprayed with dust of radioactive cesium Hungary, the number of children born with genetically coded disease called Down Syndrome diminished by 20 % in comparison to previous years; experiments with slipperworts, grown in aquariums isolated by thick lead walls from cosmic and telluric radiation, demonstrated that these mini-slipper-like organisms, kept in a total isolation from damaging their DNA high energy rays, were losing their vitality, sensibly diminishing their reproduction [7]. Why such miracles happen? Contrary to popular scientific beliefs that (animate) animals are (inanimate) machines, which beliefs are dating from times of Descartes cogito ergo sum (it is a variation of I am, who I am) self-discovery, LIVING BEINGS ARE SELF-REGENERATING OBJECTS. It means that their long persistence in comfort, not necessitating exercise of their auto-repair faculties, leads to these capacities atrophy, and thus automatically it leads to the loss of their vitality. Putting together vivid descriptions made by Dawkins, Marx, Cleese, Jankowski and Swinton, we may say that we have to tear off scientific burkas, it means blinders imposed, by Lord Procurer Of All Prostitutes, onto minds of adulating the American model passive, submissive and devoid of understanding of the world humanoids (expression of Alexander Zinoviev), which become the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. These rich men behind scenes formed, at the beginning of 20 century, a semi-secret Trust DE (it is the title of a rarely published in the USSR book by Ilya Ehrenburg, written in 1925; DE means Destruction of Europe). This TRUST is acting at the image of biblical Lord of Hosts, which by intermission of army of CIA-directed whores, is obscuring nefarious long term effects of constant wellbeing, characterizing the life of so-called chosen people. These G-d blessed people remain ever more tightly isolated inside concrete and glass walls of their ivory towers, enjoying the state of proverbial English splendid isolation. As a long term result they are becoming, like Jews in their historical ghettos, autistic, totally self-centered and prone to all perversions. Aristotle observed, at the beginning of his Metaphysics, that all me n desire, by Nature, to know. It is not true in case of dominant at present scientific establishment. Its arrogant ignorance of self-repair (and self-improvement) faculties of zoon (the living), is the logical outcome of their fervid cult of Mammon. As elegantly observed Karl Marx, it is horrible that something dead, which is the product of not necessarily transparent intentions of crab (Krebst)-like Hebrew scribes hidden in a remote past, has so

much influence onto our existence. Without abandonment of the Law, called Torah, which Law of Hebrews (i.e. bandits) is contradicting the universal ethical principle labeled categorical imperative by Immanuel Kant, we will not be able to revitalize the Earth. Thats for sure. And if someone ignores what Kants moral imperative demands, I repeat you may do whatever you are disposed to, on the condition that you will accept that others will do the same thing. Which imperative of course puts into question the ethics of Christian God. This Lord of hosts in order to assure the success of his global dominion, has not hesitated to arrange a Calvary for his own, supposedly beloved, Son. [1] R. O. Boyer and H. M.
