New Concept: Medical Insurance
-
The concept of medical insurance is based on the idea that, in the social field, you don't have to chop off your dick with a pair of rusty scissors or get an abortion with a coat-hanger. You get to feel safe.
First idea is that we follow the law. I took this idea from the Church of Satan. You are allowed to be a Satanist in America if you follow the law. You have all your rights, as a Satanist, if you follow the law. I believe the Temple of Set followed in this tradition.
Next you are allowed (as far as you are able) to be asocial. That is to say, what you do and what you think about, insofar as you follow the law, has nothing to do with anybody else. You are allowed to think and act as you wish. One Satanist example was picking your nose. Picking your nose is breaking a cultural norm. But so what? It's convenient. You're a Satanist, you can pick your nose if you want. This extends to other acts, insofar as you follow the law.
From here, you can be as you want to be, a Satanist, protected by the law. Now you are allowed to feel as you feel, and you don't have to go looking to others for confirmation.
In other words, you have a form of medical insurance.
We can extend this. Once we have one asocial individual, willing and able to be polite, he can extend his medical insurance to others.
First tenet is to "make it safe." We want the other person to feel safe in the conversation. We don't want to make them feel judged or under pressure. We are trying to communicate, not force.
If this is done unconsciously, if we are always trying to "make it safe" for the other person, they will attain medical insurance. We want them to be able to talk without pressure. This isn't scarcity-minded or a zero-sum game. You will get to talk and be heard if you are polite and respectful. We are making it safe. Most people are starved for this type of conversation. We would like it to be the new norm. We will get to know each other.
This new safety is further enforced by the government. The government is appreciative when people actively follow the law. They would like to keep us safe, as that is their job, and by following the law and respecting them, we are making their job easier and more satisfying.
Further, when normal people stop screwing each other over, the people we actually don't want, serial killers and the like, get revealed, because with the newfound libido, they can't keep a secret anymore. It might very well turn out that these people are the only reason all of us don't have medical insurance in the first place.
This is another reason we love the police and actively help them. We want the government to protect us so we can just be Arjuna and interact with each other without pressure or fear of social castration. You can be safe in what you want to do.
"There is a law now."

I also bolded some words that you used may have used for shock value to draw conversation, I mean really??? Rusty......hangers??? come on. you want to talk about what Thelema "might" be percieved as (this New concept/medical insurance) but then seem to utter from the gutter about "these people we dont want" "we love the plolice" "we want the govmt to protect us"?
you may love the plolice and you may want the govt to protect you because that is who you are as a person, but dont think for one minute that I want the govt to protect me, or the reason I love cops is they "keep me safe"
that not at all why I love cops, and if I needed to be protected Id be dead by the time the cops got here, so I had better learn to fend for myself.
my feelings of safety, or my feelings of not being safe, are completely the manufacture of elements that I have brought into my own life, by nature of being me, and it is up to me to act in the best accordance to what is my true nature in accordance to "feelings" that I have about a perceived threat.I don't buy insurance. it is a huge economic scam, from the dollars you spend on this plane to your local medical insurance carrier, alll the way to the others planes of energy exchange.
it a lie and as Un-Thelemic as slavery, bigotry, any of the _ism (ie sexism, agism).
I will call the cops, but I will also kick ass myself all the while I am waiting for them to show up.but if you want to buy insurance I am sure you will find a store house of agents who will gladly reinforce your desire, if that truly is your desire.
