"All prisoners were freed from their chains, the doors opened of their own accord, and the fires of all the hells were extinguished." --Buddha, His Teachings, 500 B.C. "Thoth and the goddess Maat mark out thy course for thee day by day and every day. Thine enemy the Serpent hath been given over to the fire. The Serpent-fiend Sebau hath fallen headlong. The forelegs of prisoners bound in chains are set free, and their hind legs hath Ra carried away opening all doors for them. The Sons of Revolt shall never more rise up." Egypt, 1000 B.C. Only a Fool knowing nothing of logic and the laws of coincidence and the fact of synchronicity would see any logical connection between the way various people express themselves. Human language is universal and the truth can be found anywhere. Dick Jones
