The Path to Awe
I am an American
I will not be dependent upon another man or entity

I will endeavor to educate myself using truth, reason, and logic as my guides

I will never become complacent

For if I am complacent then I am no longer an American

I will endeavor to lead and follow only when it benefits my faith, my


family, and my country

I am an American
I am not afraid to become strong

I will not become meek to be embraced by the meek

I will not go quietly into the night for the darkness will fear me

I will roar into the light of day the voice of freedom so that all may hear its
blessings

I shall fear no evil

If I must walk through the shadow of the valley of death, surely, death will run
from me

I am an American
No man shall lord over me

No man shall break my will

No temptation will corrupt me

There is no mountain that I cannot climb

There is no pain I cannot endure

2
The Path to Awe
Nothing will deter me from my goal

I am an American
There are no accomplishments not within my means

If you are not with me, then you should surely fear me

I give validation to truth, justice, honor, wisdom, and chivalry

I will aspire to be more than my fellow man and myself

I will endeavor to inspire those around me

I am an American
If your god opposes me, then surely he is not god

If any man bears false witness to my actions he will face the wrath of my god

If you fall before my sword on the field of battle your soul will most
assuredly rest in hell

If I should fall in battle before you then I will meet you in hell unless my god wills
otherwise

I am an American
I will defend my family, my faith, and my country to my last dying breath
with neither regret nor remorse

I will travel the road of wisdom forever seeking the path to awe

Hear these words and embrace me as a brother or fear me


as an enemy!

For I am an American!

The Path to Awe

BY JON P MORROW
The Templars and the Conservative
Templars

The evolution of the Knights Templar's economic


philosophy is the foundation for which all modern
economies should be ran. The Templar’s equilibric
principles lay the methodology to produce a robust
and ever growing economy free from the normal ups
and downs of current modern economies. But, to know
about these principles you have to know a little about
the history of the Conservative Knights Templar.
Though I do not go into detail of their history, as this is
not the focus of this book, I do intend to write a
complete detail of how the Conservative Templar’s
came to be. So if you are very familiar with the
Templar story feel free to skip over this first part.

The beginning of the Temple knights was


enigmatic for its time, for as a knight during the feudal
system of government, it was unheard of to take a vow
of chastity and poverty. It was these vows that created
the poor warrior monks that were to become the
Temple knights of the Levant (Holy Land) and later to
become known as the Knights Templar. This duality of
warrior and monk also marks the start of equilibrism,
the melding of two philosophical extreme points of
view. The creation of something that was not to one
end of the spectrum or another, but something that
was in between, though held within the value confines
of each extreme. The Templar was a being practicing

6
The Path to Awe
equilibrism, an equilibrian, if you will. Vowed to two
extremes yet existing somewhere in between.

The reality of the Conservative Templar came


about during the third crusade in the Levant. Some of
the Knights began to question the ethics and morality
of the decisions handed down by the Vatican and to a
point questioned the violence perpetrated against
other non-violent Christian sects that were labeled
heretics. The Templar’s questions were further related
to a relatively peaceful co existence with Islam. The
Templar’s had been living in the Levant for some time
with Islam at their doorstep and had befriended and
respected many of their sworn enemy, as proof it was
documented that some Persians were allowed to enter
holy temples and pray to their God.

It is this moderation of thought that the Templars


became the first conservatives.

Being conservative means that you are not at


either extreme. A modern day conservative is
supposed to be right and a liberal is supposed to be
left. Throw all that nonsense out. The modern day
conservative has not separated himself between the
warrior (political) and the monk (religious) and has
tried to blur the definition of each. Becoming quite
inferior to the Templar, which is clear in thought and
purpose because he has a clear separation of his
ideology.

Do not confuse this moderation with the present


day moderate.

A conservative is staunch in his moral and ethical


values but because he is cognizant of free will he will
not force his values on to another unless it is to
protect his own values. A conservative will only
sacrifice his viewpoint to maintain tranquility but will
never sacrifice his values. Today’s moderate will
sacrifice their moral and ethical values at the expense
of their soul and never realize that they are doing it.
7
The Path to Awe
By the end of the crusades the Templars
commanded great wealth and vast holdings of lands
they had earned by becoming the first bankers for
pilgrims traveling to the Levant, but, the Templars had
tired of war and living in the Middle East with a Muslim
population on their doorstep. They realized that
Muslims could coexist with Christians and Jews if Islam
was not in control and there could be no preaching of
the killing of infidels.The Templars had realized all to
late that the fervor they displayed taking Jerusalem
and they regret to this very day the killing of its
population. The Templars at that time were radicals
and not conservatives.

Muslims did not have to be killed or converted but


their warrior like religion had to be managed in the
name of peace. The Templars and Masons made
friends of the peaceful Muslims and even learned from
them. This is reflected in Templar architecture an art.

During the end of the Crusades the Templars had


spared the lives of some prominent politicians in
return for future favors. These were secret pacts of
honor between sworn enemies. This was imparting the
downfall of the Templars. It gave a greedy king and a
Pope reason to dissolve the order due to heresy.

The commanderies and preceptories that existed


in the Middle East that were ruled by Templeanic
Equilibric principles were eventually destroyed by the
Muslim hordes when the order was dissolved. Many
Templars still in the Levant were forewarned of their
impending demise and fled to many different parts of
the world to avoid execution from their fellow
Christians. Many fled to Portugal and Scotland seeking
refuge and some legends exist that say some fled to
Greenland and even to present day America.

The sect of Templars that were to become known


as the Conservative Templars escaped into what is
modern day Syria taking with them ancient scrolls

8
The Path to Awe
found within the Holy land. They did this with the help
of the politicians whose lives they had earlier spared.
Once in Syria, living in secret among the Muslims,
They used their wealth to obtain other holy relics that
solidified their Gnostic like belief that God had meant
man to be at peace with each other.
These Templars had then set out to transform the
world and then moved to where they no longer had to
be secretive organization. They moved out of the
cradle of their once sworn enemy and joined up with
other Templars that had fled to Portugal and were now
residing in Malta. They were just in time to help their
brothers in arms to thwart a Turkish-Muslim invasion.

This new group of Templars lived for a short time


in peace on the island of Malta and this is the time
that many of the scrolls in their possession were
translated and through the education of these sacred
scrolls, there was a new reinvigoration of the Templar’s
faith that gave new purpose to the mission of the
Templars. This is also where the Scottish born Knight
Syngyn Quinn laid down upon parchment the equilibric
principles of Templeanic law.

Napoleon sailing by Malta on his way to plunder


Egypt stopped by Malta under the guise of needing
supplies and rest and upon entry overran the trusting
Templars. The Scot Syngyn Quinn was captured alive
and was used by Napoleon as a navigator and scout
on his way to Africa. Syngyn had learned how to speak
and read many languages and while Napoleon sacked
Egypt, Napoleon was concerned with riches and not
sacred relics. So Syngyn acquired more relics and
more scrolls during the plunder.

At the conclusion of the Egyptian campaign


Syngyn escaped and made his way back to Malta.
There he retrieved the secretly hidden scrolls and
artifacts and took them to a safe haven in Scotland
where another small group of Templars lived. All the

9
The Path to Awe
scrolls over the next few years were deciphered and it
allowed this group of Templars to gain knowledge that
benefitted them by realizing through intelligence and
persuasion other men might be manipulated into
believing an ideology that they had been diametrically
opposed to.
Though not magic, when implemented, the effect
of the manipulation was quite extraordinary and
Syngyn realized this method of manipulation could be
dangerous in the wrong hands so he vowed to use this
new found power only for good and to hide this
methodology.

Other scrolls deciphered were determined to be


the direct handwritten words of Christ and that of John
the Baptist and that of Mohammed and Noah and that
of many Pharaohs. Over 1500 scrolls in all. It was
decided to hide the original scrolls in Scotland and
three copies of each of the translations were to be
separated so they could not fall into the hands of just
one country. One set was sent into the heart of their
persecutor and was hidden in the Vatican itself.
Another set was sent to Malta. The last set was sent to
sea with Syngyn Quinn and he was to not let the
others know where the final resting place would be of
the third set of scrolls but many believe the final
resting place to be in America long before Christopher
Columbus’s discovery of it making it the ultimate
hiding spot.

From some of the Translations now in the Knights


of Malta’s possession it is believed that Syngyn had
coded messages within the text so that their
authenticity could be verified at a later date when the
Pope could no longer punish them for their supposed
blasphemy.

Many had believed that these translated scrolls


prove the religion of Christianity to be a farce and a
hoax but after review by the Knights of Malta, this

10
The Path to Awe
proved to be wrong. The scrolls reinforce the deity of
Christ and the error of the Hidith and the Koran. It does
reveal that some aspects of the bible are in error and
have been misinterpreted and some aspects are of a
political nature and have little to do with religion. In
summary of these documents it spells out the schism
between Christianity, Islam, and Judaism is due to the
inferiority of man not to be able to hear God clearly.

Templeanic law and its Equilibric Principles do not


allow us to hear better but it puts us on a path to be
able to better hear and to understand God through
logic and reasoning. It is these laws and principles that
allow all men and all religions to work together in a
peaceful coexistence to not only benefit from knowing
the word of God but also by improving the condition of
all men.

The Meaning of Life

You may say to yourself “ Why are the Templars


a Secret Society?” Most of what people see in the
movies is inaccurate. Dan Brown (The Davinci Code) is
one prime example of a person who can spin a good
yarn but yet has no basis in reality of the story he tells.

For a long time the Templars were a secret


society because they either lived amongst the Muslim
population or they were to be hunted down by the
Vatican. Hence, for a long time they had to move in
the shadows and keep their organization very
secretive. The modern Templar is not secretive of the
fact that he is a Templar but he is secretive about what
information he releases to the public for the true
power of the Templar is not an Ark or a Grail but it is
their knowledge.

11
The Path to Awe
The Conservative Templar is not an order of the
Masons and do not have secret plans to rule the world
as so many conspiracy theorists believe.

I’ll share a secret with you. The overriding


ambition of the Conservative Knights Templar is not
world domination……it is……keeping everyone
productive and successful.

You may ask yourself, “Why are the Knights so


concerned with everyone being productive and
successful?” It sounds like their brand of conservatism
is just their fascination with the almighty dollar.

You have heard many cooaquillism’s that when


put together explain why Templars do what they do.
The Templars final goal is the revelation of the
meaning of life. The ancient scrolls describe God as a
most complex being and as in creation he is all around
us as he has created everything. Not that be actually
created everything but God was the beginning of
everything. Everyday that man seeks to better his own
condition he reveals minute fragments of Gods
creation. So as science progresses it will prove rather
than disprove his existence.

Competition is productive as it instills drive,


desire, discipline, and determination. It is this
competitiveness that drives the machine of
productivity, which in turn drives, mans overall
progress. As science is ever evolving it keeps man
productive and not stagnant.

It is the trinity of Competition, Progress, and


Science that reveals Gods handiwork. It is the belief of
the Templars that man will someday gain the
intelligence to hear God’s word clearly and the only
way to that end is through Science and Free Will.

You have heard such sayings, as “Idle hands are


the hands of the devil”, “God’s work is never done”,
“and God reveals himself in mysterious ways”. It is
12
The Path to Awe
these sayings that help us down the path to Awe,
which is the undeniable revelation of God. It is
believed by the Templars that God endowed man with
free will and man may either prosper by learning or
destroy himself with ignorance.
So the Templars are not driven by wealth, as
some would have you believe but they are driven by
the discovery of Gods revelations.

The path to Awe

The path of Awe is the journey of man to acquire


wisdom from his environment and to recognize the
natural order of man is both equilibric and
conservative. The most religious faction of the Catholic
Church realized these principles as being born of
religion but not of a religious nature. They used these
principles to grow wealth and reinforce their religion.
The Templars were eventually persecuted for
blasphemy against the church and against the crown
for not sharing the wealth they had amassed.

The Templars were silenced because they had


stumbled upon a new way to live, to think, and how to
look at religion and because this new way did not
concentrate power to the crown or church the
Templars were silenced.

For far too long the principles learned by the


Templars have fallen into the hands of an evil few and
have been used by the greedy to create wealth by
knowing man’s nature and to use it against him.
It is hoped that this book will clearly illustrate
the concept of conservatism and help you to recognize
those that seek to use you as a pawn for their own
selfish desires of greed and power. By not becoming a

13
The Path to Awe
pawn you will have regained your free will and will be
able to move down the path of Awe to a more free and
prosperous society.

Chapter 1
Understanding Conservatism

Forget what you think you know about


conservatism. A lot of what you have learned has been
twisted or misrepresented, normally by a pure
capitalist, which is not to be confused with an
equilibrist. This book intertwines religion, philosophy,
destiny, and fate. So there will be many that will be
offended by this book, but, these principals of true
conservatism were created to bring man closer
together to live in harmony with each other. So please
read the whole book before you get highly offended as
the laws of conservatism are articulated and only the
total inter-relationship of the laws shine the light of
wisdom upon each individual law.

There are a lot of so-called conservatives out in


the world who are not conservatives at all. They are in
fact, the exact opposite of a liberal, but that is not a
conservative, it is an oppositionist. If you are a person
that wants to enforce religious law or use mans law to
14
The Path to Awe
control how others live then you are not a
conservative.

A core principle of conservatism is (It is inherit


in man to want to live by his own accord) This
means that man naturally does not like other people
telling him what to do, feel, think, or act. In the
Templars infinite wisdom they bore the idea that only
God can impose God’s will and that this is not the
domain of man. As each man is created and endowed
with free will it is up to the individual to either accept
or reject the grace of God in his or her own manner. So
in other words, the religious right should hold to their
convictions but not try to legislate morality or use
man’s law as a tool to impose God’s will. Rather the
religious right should go out and preach the gospel
and use persuasion and not force as the tool of
conversion. Though changing laws leads to a faster
conversion it does not however leave you with a
strong and faithful flock. It is also a Christian saying
“The easy way is not always the right way!” So is such
that conservatism is born from religion and is
manufactured by man and by its very nature is non-
religious.

Templeanic law is very precise on this measure as


man’s law is judged before man and God’s law is
imposed as the will of God. So man’s law will follow
logic and God’s law will follow faith. The Templars
learned and believed that only God is perfect and
thereby man has to be imperfect. So the word of God
handed down to man could be of an imperfect nature
because it is man that is doing the translation. The
essence of what God intended may be there but it may
be of an imperfect nature.

Ok, so real world terms how does this apply to the


present day. Right off the bat lets apply this to the
most divisive issue of our day “Abortion”. Following
Templeanic law is abortion lawful.

15
The Path to Awe
Is the answer black and white? Maybe. Not the
answer you were hoping for? Let me explain to make it
very clear to you the process of true conservatism. A
Templeanic society has a core set of laws that apply to
everyone and then there are another set of moral laws
that are passed by the majority of individuals living
within a community. So community law is the flavor of
morals in your community.

Abortion, gambling, drugs, prostitution, alcohol


are all left to community law. Abortion, however, is not
just a moral concern; it defies natural law, which is the
core set of laws.

So the Templars decided, that so is the basis of


the end of life is decided, then so shall the basis of the
beginning of life be determined.

In today’s standard that would be brain activity. If


you have no brain activity you are legally dead so if
you have brain activity you are legally alive. Though I
don’t like it, that it means, since a baby does not have
a brain wave until the twelfth week from conception,
that means under Templeanic law their Core law would
allow no abortions the twelfth week or after. Now the
community in which you live is free to pass their own
laws that may be in addition but may not overrule the
Core law, and ban all abortions. Community laws are
laws that must be passed every year by a vote of two
thirds of all possible voters.

So under Templeanic law, yes abortion could be


legal, but in a moral community it would be illegal and
in an immoral community it might be legal.

Now, what about a child getting an abortion? The


Templars believed that a child by their very definition
do not have the capacity or rationale to make good
decisions and it is up to their parents to infer wisdom
upon their child so that man may prosper by the
wealth of knowledge gained through adversity and
shared through good will.
16
The Path to Awe
This means the parents make the decisions for
their children as long as it is within the law and no
community may circumvent the law of another
community, especially, as it pertains to their children.

In other words a child could not legally get an


abortion elsewhere if the parents did not condone it.

Keep in mind the Christian Templars abhorred


abortion but anything that transpires before a child
becomes living is a moral matter and a Templar is
vowed on not forcing their morals upon others.

This creates a society where there are


communities that have abortion and ones that do not.
So it separates society on one level but a core set of
laws joins society on another level. The Templars
fought against the Islamic empires of the day and
recognized a theocracy, no matter how well
intentioned, subjugates mans free will and thereby
worsen the human condition.

Again, it is not government’s domain to legislate


morals this is the church’s domain to spread morality
in such a tone that the flock willingly accepts it.

As such, an atheist can be a moral man and not


be a man of religion as long as he recognizes morals
as being good and just. That explains why a person
who does not accept God may prosper.

So you have learned a core principle (It is inherit


to man that he live by his own accord)

You’ve learned a core law (So that it is by


which that man decides death shall be his basis
for determining life)

And a core philosophy (God is the only means


of perfection and man is less than God so man is
decidedly imperfect.)

17
The Path to Awe
See how the law articulates life with death. It is a
binding logic to bind death with life. Though, reported
abortions were very rare during the time of the
Templars their recognition of it in some preceptories
was well ahead of its time. Since life is tied to death
then the more you push the envelope of science in one
direction it furthers it in the opposite direction. Just like
one law of physics, an equal but opposite reaction. So
as mans technology improves so shall his morality.

Consider this, at one time you had to be born to


be considered alive, with a heartbeat and respiration.
Then it was found to hear an unborn’s heart beat and
now you can measure their brainwave activity.

So this imparts another profound philosophy


(God reveals himself through the acquired wisdom of
man.) So even an atheist can do the work of God. Any
man of science or technology is actually doing gods
work by revealing the nature of God to the rest of the
world. Even a scientist that seeks to disprove the
existence of God unwittingly will help to prove his
existence by this field of exploration…remember equal
but opposite results.

The core principle of man wanting to live by his


own accord interrelates with the biblical concept of
free will and the ability to choose between the path of
good or the path of evil. It also interrelates with the
core philosophy that if man is imperfect how can man
judge another as living imperfectly, which also
interrelates with, “Judge not lest ye be judged” and
“let he who is without sin cast the first stone”

So by binding the ever changing concepts of life


and death, from one extreme to another, it provides
for mans imperfection by not being able to discern the
finality of these extremes and that by acquiring
wisdom brings forth revelations of the creator. So
principle, law, and philosophy interrelate and
seamlessly mesh together. The recognition of these

18
The Path to Awe
building blocks of connections is the foundation for
Templeanic Equilibric Principles of Conservatism.

Chapter 2
The Nature of Man

So you have decided to read on. You


undoubtedly have reservations on what has been
explained so, far or are intrigued and want to know
more! Either way, great! I took the most divisive topic
to talk about first to see if you grasp the concept. This
was kind of out of sequence in traveling down the path
to Awe and with any journey it should start at the
beginning so lets rewind a bit.

The first core principle from which all other


principles are derived is:

1) Man shall always have wants

Now if you have taken any basic accounting


principles in school you will recognize this principle as
a core principle of American economics. If you study
this message you will find it to be true. Needs of a man
are also wants. Food, shelter, air, water, and
procreation are all wants, including life. If you deprive
yourself of a need you may take your own life but
Templars assume you want to live. So by man having
wants relates back to “Free Will”.

2) Satisfaction or Success is mans ability to


acquire wants.

This includes material and nonmaterial items. If


a person limits their wants then that person is more
easily satisfied. If a person has abundant wants then
that person is harder to satisfy. It is also true the more
intelligent you are the harder it is to be satisfied. This
is why a free and prosperous society embraces
education and Tyrants and Dictatorships shun
19
The Path to Awe
education, as a less intelligent people are more easily
satisfied and thereby more easily pacified.

3) Man must face adversity in obtaining


wants unless they are gifted of stolen.

Adversity in contemporary terms is your job. We


must toil to earn money to buy wants. This, in another
term, is we earn what we acquire unless it is a gift or it
is stolen.

4) Value is mans ability to defend acquired


wants through threat of force.

Think of it as a $100 bill has no value to you if


you do not have the will to defend someone else from
taking it. Sure, it has vale to the person doing the
taking but if you were a millionaire you would probably
put up less of a fight than the person earning only a
minimum wage. Hence; value is only in the eye of the
beholder.

5) That which man has obtained through


adversity has a value assigned to it
proportional to the amount of adversity
encountered in obtaining the want.

In laymen’s terms; the harder you work for


something the more value you assign to it. This is why
something given does not have the same value as
something earned. This is also why so many religions
are against gambling as it actually helps to devalue
currency. Ask yourself this: If you played a quarter in a
slot machine at a casino and won $10,000 and upon
exiting the casino you encounter a mugger. Would you
be more apt to defend that money with your life as
compared to the same amount of money you had
earned making minimum wage? Almost all would more
vehemently defend the earned money as compared to
the unearned money.

20
The Path to Awe
This is the reason that government sponsored
social programs do not work and are never really
intended to work but, this issue will be dealt with
greater introspection on down the road.

You can see from the first five principles how


“wants,” relate to “success,” that relate to “adversity,”
that relates to “value” and the threat of violence in
defense of what has been earned.
The Templars derived that the natural order of
man is violent or the threat of violence and that
violence is a necessary evil in maintaining an orderly
society where man may flourish and prosper.
Think about if there were no consequences to
your actions, then chaos would reign supreme and
only the mighty may rule and mankind would languish
in stagnation forever. There would be no good if there
were no evil. It is this Ying and Yang that balances a
society. By not being at either extreme, but in an
equilibrism, man prospers to his fullest potential. It is
this reason that the first five principles lay the
groundwork for the principles of Equilibrism.

Valorem Esplande (Equilibric Principle #1)


Wants = Adversity = Defense = Value =
Success

The next set of principles begins the complexity


of conservatism but all the principles are derived from
the first five, which are also known as the “Pyramid of
Man’s Core”

The base is formed by Adversity, Wants, Defense,


and Value and at the pinnacle of the Pyramid is
Success.
Consumption and wants are inexorably linked and
drive all economies. It is consumption that creates a
need for man to constantly create new wealth. Look at
consumption in terms of food; we always have to
21
The Path to Awe
produce food to sustain ourselves and the creation of
food creates new wealth. It is the consumption of food
that destroys wealth.
Wealth is constantly being destroyed by
consumption and in order to retain wealth man will
seek to minimize his consumption. Minimizing
consumption is achieved in a number of different
ways. The first way that comes to mind is
conservation, but that is the most obvious one. Why
do we constantly build better products? Cars that once
only lasted three to four years now last fifteen to
twenty years. This ever-increasing quality that we
build into products reduces consumption by
lengthening the lifespan of our products. Technology is
a science of improving quality and also pushes
products into obsolescence causing a temporary rise in
consumption but an overall decrease in consumption
as newer better products are brought to market.
It is through this grand design that man shall
reveal the true nature of God by bettering his own
condition by trying to maximize his own wealth. By
maximizing wealth man shall find true wealth by
finding God and sharing in the brotherhood of man.

Chapter 3
The Complexity of Conservatism

6) Prosperity is mans ability to satisfy


wants

22
The Path to Awe
The easier it is for man to obtain his wants the
more satisfied man becomes. If man obtains his wants
with too little adversity then man will not prosper
because man cannot gain wisdom without adversity. It
is a tenant of the sixth principle that if man does not
face adversity he will create adversity for himself
through change of “wants”. By this principle it can be
assumed that man’s wants are ever evolving. So mans
wants are not stagnant and as such man can never be
totally satisfied.

7) The more wants that are satisfied


through wisdom, the more prosperous
man is, so, man can only be prosperous
through “Freedom of Choice”

Wisdom is the only true gift you cannot give


irresponsibly. Since wisdom can be gained through
education, this passing of knowledge, allows men to
better their condition but, it also raises the bar on
satisfying their wants. So, mankind as a whole will
prosper even though there will still be many wants
unfulfilled. It is easier to satisfy wants through wisdom
gained through education rather than wisdom gained
through adversity. So, in essence, the more educated a
society is the more prosperous it is.

8) Man acquires wisdom in making


decisions to acquire wants.
Man makes decisions in acquiring wants and he
learns from the decisions he makes. This education
allows him to be successful. Wisdom is not simply
remembering what you have learned but it is the
understanding and practical application of what you
have learned. So education is like a container full of
data and wisdom is understanding the data and
putting it to good use. It is the same as someone you
would call book smart (able to recall facts and figures)
but not able to make good decisions.

23
The Path to Awe
9) To limit mans decisions, limits his ability
to obtain wants and acquire wisdom.

This reinforces the importance of free will and draws


the parallel of decision-making and mans ability to
learn. The people that have started out life at the
bottom of the ladder of success recognize this rule far
better than those that start somewhere near the
middle or the top. Government rules, programs, fees,
and taxes, though some are well intentioned, do
nothing but hold those back that they were designed
to help. Take Hurricane Katrina for an example. There
were so many people that were on welfare and section
8 housing before the storm and after the storm literally
kicked them out of a socialized (government provided)
lifestyle many now have jobs and are starting to enjoy
a taste of success. Much of urban blight is caused by
the very programs intended to help reduce it, because
programs that should only of been temporary became
permanent
The permanency of these programs has caused
dependency and when you make a man dependent
you limit his ability to make decision and thereby keep
him un-educated and easy to control. If you pay for a
mans house (Section 8 housing) and you pay to feed
his family (various welfare programs) and you pay for
his transportation (public transportation). You have
made many of his decisions for him. Since this man
does not have a job but you are providing for him he is
uninterested in moving to where jobs are plentiful, he
is without ambition if he is uneducated for he has
simple wants and those wants are being provided by
the government so he is satisfied. This man is so
content with the scraps he is given he doesn’t
recognize that the steak would taste oh, so much
better. This man, who is satisfied by government
programs, will never make anything of himself
because of dependency and he will actually resent it if
you try to pull him to the table and show him the
steak.

24
The Path to Awe
Charity has its place as a hand up and not as a
handout. Charity is temporary and never permanent
and charity is not the domain of the government but it
is the domain of religion and the brotherhood of man.
By providing for a certain set of people and not for
another you favor one above another and that divides
society by destroying brotherhood (mans concern for
one another).
You could not stop all the welfare programs in
America overnight, not because of the poor’s condition
but because of the condition of the wealthy and their
apathy toward the poor. This hatred has been caused
by the government by not recognizing its most
precious tenant….”All men are created equal” and like
a child resentful of the fact their parents favor a
sibling, the wealthy will retaliate given the opportunity.
Now this is not to say our wealthy are not the
most charitable in the world, but our middle class, that
the poor seem to consider wealthy, have been trying
to shrug off the monkey of socialism so they can climb
higher up the ladder, would initially show no concern
for the welfare of their fellow man, but would over a
period of time after the removal of such government
programs. Man showing concern for their fellow human
being makes for a stronger and a much more cohesive
society.

10)Man limits free will by creating laws,


which disproportionately limit chaos,
and ensures the domestic tranquility in
order to provide a common environment
for the prosperity of man.

The laws of any state are rules that the majority


agrees upon that keep in check what the citizens of
the state consider a detriment to prosperity. This is
why differing nations have differing laws. No single set
of laws can be applied to all people for everyone has a
different interpretation of what prosperity is.

25
The Path to Awe
So it is that a State with an abundance of laws will
not prosper because its limit free will too much and it
is also so that a state with a limited amount of laws
shall prosper abundantly.
So it is inherit in nature that man needs just a few
laws to maintain a government and be a “government
of the people” and not a “government over the
people”. It is meant for a core set of laws of which all
can agree upon to rule the domain of a land
considered a nation and another set of lesser laws to
rule the villages in which the populous reside.
This is not like our federal, state, and local forms
of government. The Templars saw federal laws as
being stagnant and permanent. A set of a few laws to
keep the nation cohesive and they foresaw state
government as more of a business and banking entity
that regulated trade and money for a certain area.
They saw the local (village) law as being much more
powerful. They saw that the smaller the unit you break
power up into the more powerful you make the whole
as long as the governing body is limited.
This type of nation they foresaw would have
many flavors in many communities and each may
flourish or die dependent upon the laws they enacted.
This also gives the citizen of the realm to move to a
community that best fits his character. So you would
have communities that would have legal gambling and
prostitution and others that would not. Since the
higher government would not subsidize communities
their failure or success would help guide the natural
evolution of the Nation. Templars foresaw that by
natural means and not by imposition that a nation will
in time adopt more Christian like values because their
system of brotherhood and respect for life produce a
far stronger government free from religious influences
than any other ideology.

11)A man that does not face adversity will


be dependent upon the man or men who
face adversity or he will cease to exist.

26
The Path to Awe

This means that any man that relies on the


welfare of others is knowingly or unknowingly a slave
to this dependency and the man he is dependent
upon. It is a fact, all social programs depend upon
those that are productive as they are wealth creators.
As such any man that is bound by dependency cannot
relieve himself of these shackles and prosper. So it
goes that a dependent man is an impediment to a
prosperous society.

So should it be by this principle that free men


resolutely stand against all forms of slavery and
dependency. Slavery and dependency squelches mans
potential.

This principle relates to a Christian principle:


“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a
man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime” and “God
helps those who help themselves” and an American
adage “ All true men must learn to stand on their own
two feet”.

This principle draws the parallel between


wisdom and charity. If you do not educate yourself or
go out in the world to learn among other men then you
will be a slave unto another man or men
(government). To educate yourself is to free yourself
from dependency. This is not to say that charity is a
bad thing. A person may be responsible or
irresponsible with their charity. On the path to Awe
sometimes one needs a little help to stay on the path
whereas others may just park themselves at a rest
area.

There is a natural incentive for all men to be


productive and that incentive is survival. If you take
away that stagnation deterrent then charity is abusive.
So give to a responsible charity for if you give to one
that is irresponsible then you partake in an enterprise
no less vile than that of a crack dealer. There is no
27
The Path to Awe
difference making a soul dependent upon a drug or
chemical than making him dependent upon a charity.
The result is always the same and society suffers.

So that it is that the most uneducated are


normally the poorest and the most educated the
richest.

12)Man is born devoid of values, if man


does not acquire values through
adversity or wisdom he will acquire
them from his environment.

This draws the difference of being raised by your


parents or being raised by a community.

If you are raised in a bad community you will


become a bad person unless you have good parents
that impart good values unto you. The opposite is true
if you live in a good community but have bad parents.
The point is if a person is left solely to the environment
then he will take on the traits of his environment.

13)Void of wisdom, mans environment will


significantly affect mans character.

This principle relates to the twelfth principle but is


meant not as an impression unto a child but to an
adult. If man is stagnant in acquiring wisdom
eventually the environment in which he lives will
change his character.

14)Moral values are the decisions that a


man makes based upon interaction with
others that are a benefit to man’s
prosperity

Inner values are a man’s individual


definition of good and evil

The character of a man is made up of his


moral and inner values
28
The Path to Awe

This multipart principle explains the character of


a man and how values determine that character. It is
out of this principle that both honor and nobility are
born.

15)All men are created of both good and


evil.
This principle recognizes that all men have the
capacity to do good and to do evil. It is the wisdom
that we gain that imbues our values, our character,
and our belief system with whether or not our actions
in life are perceived by others to be good or evil.

Man cannot be the final judge of who is good or


evil, that is the dominion of the creator.

For a man who starts a war, maybe considered a


good man by the men on his side, but, the men that
oppose him will consider him evil. The men that will
judge the other men are the men that will win the war,
but that does not make the cause any more or less
noble within the eyes of the creator for he will judge
you as he sees fit and not by populous thought.

This is why there is an inherit good In the


Christian belief system and has time after time
vanquished many foes many times their own size. A
Christian soldier is of a sound mind he is doing the
work of the righteous because he is free and he values
life, so, his belief system will let him transgress mans
perceived evil in order accomplish the will of God. This
principle allows a Christian to kill in order to keep him
and others from being killed. In laymen’s terms “It is
okay to commit a small act of evil to prevent a larger
act of evil.” God views this as a good man must make
a sacrifice in his beliefs, as this is an admission of
mans imperfection, so once this sacrifice (admission)
is made, a Christian soldier is wholly within the grace
of God.

29
The Path to Awe
As so that it is with all Knights Templar that they
vow only to take a life when necessary and the life
they take must be more evil than their own, and that
they ask for absolution for the admission of
imperfection in life, so that they maybe graced with
the realm of perfection in death.
So now we have gone through the first 15
principles of conservatism. The principle at the core of
the 15 is:

It is inherit in man to want to live life by


his own accord and it is for him to do so as
long as he does not adversely affect the
prosperity of others.

Now doesn’t this sound pretty liberal to you. I


mean this is what the hippies preached in the 60’s and
70’s…. but they also did not want to embrace the
other side of the coin….responsibility. There cannot be
peace and love without war because it is not in the
nature of man. All peace and love means that
absolutely everything has no value and it is in mans
nature to apply value to life.

So a liberal ideal is embraced by conservatism. It


is only through equilibrism that you can see how both
sides relate. Man is a creature of nature and the
sooner this reality overcomes extremist, the sooner
they can work their differences out without
compromising their principles. Liberalism looks at just
one side of an argument and says, “This is the way
things ought to be” this is said with heart, but with no
thought. Conservatism looks at the argument and says
“Looking at the facts this is what is possible”
Equilibrism looks at both sides and uses what is the
eventual outcome of putting a plan into action
knowing the nature of man.

What pure conservatism (as it is now known)


and pure liberalism do not take into account is the
nature of man. So the brand of true conservatism is
30
The Path to Awe
equilibric in nature and not extremist. By operating a
society in such a natural manner, is superior to any
other form of government, because each individual
within its nation is empowered, enlightened, and
therefore strong. A nation not following these
principles will always be plagued with the disease of
the weak, the lethargic, and those that are
unproductive.

Just what exactly is equilibrism? It was the


thought of the Cathars and the Knights Templar that all
of nature exist in an equilibrium. There are always two
forces that work against each other such as good and
evil and each is necessary for the tranquility of nature.
If good conquered evil then there would no longer be
any good and if evil conquered good then there would
be no evil, for without the one the other would not
exist. So as it is in nature, then so should man apply
nature towards his actions. It is not in the nature of
man to be natural. It is up to man to observe his
surroundings that were made by the creator and apply
the order of nature to man (which is unnatural).

Society should be treated as a living organism as


well as its economic markets. Like a single celled
organism that has a cell wall, naturestrengthens that
wall to a point where it is ready to divide and then
those cells reinforce their walls again and then start to
divide exponentially. The foundation of equilibrism is to
strengthen the individual and then the family, and
then the neighborhood, and then the village, and then
the county, and then the state, and then the nation,
and eventually the world. Yet this is a world with
boundaries, different laws and rules within countries,
and different economies. It is this diversity that gives
man many different approaches to obtaining
prosperity in working his way down the path to Awe.

Socialism, Communism, Marxism, and Fascism


are self defeating forms of government because they
do not strengthen themselves from within, so, when
31
The Path to Awe
acted upon by an outside force they can easily be
crushed. This means like a cardboard box (the nation)
filled with soap bubbles (representing the people)
when acted upon by an outside force, the box is easily
crushed flat.
Capitalism can be turned to Socialism through
greed and corruption such as is the transformation
America is now seeing. The American republic is
supremely susceptible to the communist influence
because its government is created from taxes paid by
taxpayers and yet even non-taxpayers get a vote on
what to do with the taxpayers money.

To end this influence America simply needs to


enact a law that takes away a citizens right to vote
and put it into the hands of the citizen taxpayer.
America’s current capitalism is a box equally filled with
air filled rubber balls with thin walls, some with thick
walls, and the rest are soap bubbles. Deforming the
box is easy but it is very hard to crush flat.

Equilibrism on the other hand lets natural order


take its course and strengthens from the individual up
as a nation. The cardboard box of equilibrism is a box
filled with varying sizes of solid rubber balls. This box
can barely be dented.

Enough about Equilibrism for now as we will get


into that when we delve into economics and
government organization.

So what have we learned about conservatism?

Most people don’t realize a true conservative


wants you to live your life the way you want, so long
as you do not adversely affect others prosperity. This
principle makes the society diverse (following many
paths) not as in communism or socialism (following
one path, that has been chosen for you). By allowing
everyone to choose their own path in life it allows man
to become strong by the education of many among
32
The Path to Awe
many paths. Yet it is only through conservatism that
many people following many paths can be united so
that all may flourish in the destination of prosperity.

A conservative does not want you to be


dependent upon him or anything else because if you
are dependent you are not free; if you are not free you
cannot prosper. If enough people do not prosper then
the conservative cannot prosper. So even though it is
self-serving, a conservative wishes well to his fellow
man because he realizes that we are all in this boat of
life together.

Yes, it is a Christian principle that the term


“God bless you” is so often said to wish well upon
another. The term the Templars used when dealing
with many religions is one heard in the sci-fi series
Star Trek as uttered by Spock….”May you live long and
prosper” So if you hear someone use this term they
may be a Templar or an enlightened conservative.

It is inherit in conservatism that you keep what


you earn so by this logic you can extrapolate that
conservatism stands for low taxation and small but
strong government. As you will see as we go along
the associated Templeanic laws and philosophies
answer a number of questions such as how do we help
the elderly, the infirmed, and orphans.

33
The Path to Awe
Chapter 4
It’s The Economy, Stupid

How did the Templars gain such immense


wealth? The Templars with their land holdings had
more wealth than any single European nation at the
time. Some records showed they basically owned two
thirds of France. With their preceptories and
commanderies which were basically small fortified
villages that were both a place of business and the
first international banks.

If you do not know anything of the Templars then


you should know that the Knights Templar, in a
nutshell, started banks for pilgrims traveling to the
holy land so the pilgrims did not have to carry so much
money with them that they would be easy targets for
thieves. It was very costly to visit the holy land
(Levant) in those days and it was not uncommon for a
pilgrim to sell all they had to make the trip. If a pilgrim
were killed during their journey then the amount they
placed in the Templar bank would then become the
Templars. The Templars were trusted implicitly with the
funds of others, as the Templars themselves had taken
a vow of chastity. It was from the pilgrims funds they
were able to make large investments that rewarded
them handsomely and so their wealth grew and grew.

The Templars demise came about for only one


reason. They were far to successful and the Crown and
the Church perceived the Templars as a threat. The
real reason for the success of the Templars became
their business acumen because they were the first
equal opportunists. They did not discriminate of who
they did business with mainly because they were first
and foremost a loyal order of monks and since we are
all of Gods creation in their eyes they showed no bias
when it came to doing business with you. The

34
The Path to Awe
Templars could also be trusted and were known for
doing what was in the best interest of their customers.

Many scholars are divided upon how they made


such fantastic wealth and many conspiracies abound.
Some say it was plunder from the crusades and other
say that holy relics imbued them with supernatural
powers to control people to forfeit their money. In all
actuality, it was simply just good ole plain business
sense.

Under the auspices of the Pope the Templars


routinely did business with other religions in order to
help them accomplish their goals. They did not let
religion blind them to the fact that man is far more
prosperous when working together than when working
against each other.

The Templars had recognized that the Church


had become far to political and realized that they had
been fighting a theocracy in the Middle East only to
see the Church becoming ever more theocratic itself.
The Templars had always planned for worst case
scenarios, they gathered the most sacred relics and
scrolls recovered from the crusades and started
translating the scrolls and the artifacts themselves, for
fear the Church and the Crown could merge, or that in
a struggle one could become victorious and that what
they had risked their lives to retrieve would somehow
become lost. The Templars in essence became the
backup repository of knowledge of ancient and holy
artifacts.

Within these artifacts a document was found


that is believed to be written by Jesus himself. Its title
translates into “The Path to Awe”. It explains the true
power of free will and the potential of man through
mind and spirit. The Templars realized these papyrus
scrolls should never fall into the hands of any current
government for they would destroy the scrolls and as

35
The Path to Awe
cozy as the Pope was with the crown they were not
going to give this information to their superiors.

The Templars were not capitalist, and they were


not socialist, nor were they communist, but were
Equilibrist. Equilibric principles allow the only true path
to prosperity for all and it is these principles that help
form Templeanic Law.

You can say what you want to about Socialism,


Communism, Fascism, and Marxism, even though
these ideologies can create a lot of power quickly in
the long run all these ideologies fail because they do
not embrace and empower the individual, and the
individual is the foundation of the society. All of these
Ideologies have been tried and have failed to create
the Utopia that they all promise because their
fundamental flaw is they do not recognize the true
nature of man.

Capitalism touts freedom and a path to climb the


ladder of success but due to greed and corruption
there is a whole portion of society that has had their
rungs on the ladder greased. A purely capitalist society
does not embrace the concept that the individual
prospers only if others prosper. Capitalism is also
fundamentally flawed because it does not take into
account mans nature.

Capitalism as it evolves will then give you the


same result as the other ideologies, freedom will
collapse and the society will become a dictatorship
through greed and corruption.

Equilibrism is a form of capitalism but working


within a limited set of self imposed rules. These rules
benefit man because they recognize the nature of man
and put into place controls so that this ideology will
not self-destruct. Equilibrism is capitalism with checks
and balances so everyone still gets an equal
opportunity to prosper but wealth is not allowed to

36
The Path to Awe
concentrate to the point where it could corrupt the
government.

Equilibrism does not make all men equal. It


merely provides the environment where all men have
an equal chance to make their wealth and that
individuals may not adversely affect another mans
prosperity for short-term wealth.

Equilibrism offers an equal opportunity to


everyone regardless of race, creed, color, and religion
as long as they can function within the laws of the
realm. Equilibrism ignores diversity and embraces
unity. Diversity accentuates the differences among
men and unity accentuates the commonness among
men.

You have undoubtedly heard the phrase “United


we stand, divided we fall.” This represents the melting
pot of America. This is an Equilibric ideology that has
in recent times been torn asunder in the name of
diversity, “affirmative action” is an order by the
government to favor a certain group of people rather
than have the government treat each individual as an
equal. By inferring special rights upon a select few you
accentuate the division among us.

By taking many different people traveling down


many different paths and using what is common
between them all they can be bound together into a
cohesive society. That is Unity. Unity is to unite all of
the diverse so that man would prosper more than he
would alone. So by accentuating what is common,
man may bond with other men and use their diversity
in their individual way to help better strengthen the
core.

How a man fares financially in an equilibric


economy is based upon four factors that make up their
destiny.

1) Drive
37
The Path to Awe
2) Desire
3) Discipline
4) Determination
These four elements make the base of a Pyramid
of Destiny and at the pinnacle is Destiny.
These four items are items that any man might
possess and as such there cannot be any
discrimination to any man upon these items, for these
are items that are created from within man himself.

I know you’ve been telling yourself “The author


has been very esoterical in describing equilibrism.”,
so, in contemporary terms how would such an ideology
affect the current day?

Equilibrism does not distribute wealth (it does


not take from the rich and give to the poor). Wealth is
naturally distributed, what equilibrism does is prevent
the unnatural concentration of wealth, which is
associated with greed and corruption. Can you be rich
in an Equilibric society? Most definitely! As long as you
have earned it.

Capitalists want unregulated markets and from


any unbiased study of the market from a purely
economic standpoint you would have to agree with
them. A major item holding back the American
economy is over-regulation. The regulation that the
markets need is a simple and a vastly different form of
regulation. Regulation that takes the chaos of an open
market and stabilizes it in a more manageable and
much more prosperous market with self regulating
checks and balances that does not concentrate power
within the government.

Lets look at Equilibric Economic Laws as applied


to today’s markets.

1) No man, nor entity, shall benefit from


the toils of another man an amount that

38
The Path to Awe
would be in excess of one third of the
mans wages.

This law forces a just distribution of wealth in


manufacturing markets. In essence, forced profit
sharing. The owner of a company may be an employee
of the company and be paid a wage rather than just
deriving profit from income, but an owner may not pay
himself a wage in excess of twice the amount of the
highest paid non-owner employee. The owner may
derive wealth from both a wage and the profit a
company makes. The government does not receive
taxes from the profit of a company and thereby
unnatural concentrations of wealth do not occur within
the government.

Money is never taken out of the economy; it is


reinvested back into the economy continuously
spurring growth. Now, the growth of the economy is
slower because labor is not market based but is based
upon the prosperity of the company. This is the whole
basis of taking the peaks and valleys out of a capitalist
economy with slow but steady upward growth. The
growth over time is the same as in a capitalist system
but instead of having surges in growth and then
setbacks the economy runs in a more linear fashion
rather than a cyclical fashion. Labor is now based upon
how the worker helps the company to realize profits
rather than just based upon supply and demand. This
also helps rid the we-they mentality between
management and employees and helps them work
toward one goal.

This law distributes the wealth made by the


creation of a saleable item to those that create the
item. Intellectual creation such as a singer or
songwriter would keep their profits because they are
the ones that create the product. When a singer sells
their recording to a recording company they keep their
profits but the recording company that sells the
recording must share those profit with all their
39
The Path to Awe
employees that produce the records. Ingenuity and
inventiveness are not stifled in the least bit in an
equilibric economy. Just the opposite is true, more
unique and innovative creations are created because
this is where the true wealth lies and there is less
room for corruption to flourish from the labor market
as immense profits made from the labor of men is
harder to obtain.

Wouldn’t this send everything overseas so


companies could make more profit? No because in an
equilibric economy companies are not taxed nor are
they heavily regulated so these companies would still
make the same amount of money as overseas markets
with cheap labor. Equilibric markets are not “free
markets” so price floors may be imposed on foreign
products so they do not adversely affect the
homelands economy.

Why price floors and not tariffs? Price floors still


stimulate competition by a company having to make
the best product for the money so the consumer wins
and the economy is strengthened but wealth is not
concentrated within the government. Tariffs may be
imposed upon a country that does not have free
people. This revenue must be used exclusively for the
defense of the nation. Use a dictatorship to generate
enough wealth to overthrow it and then make it
become a real wealth generator by spreading freedom
and equilibrism.

2) No employee of an entity may make a


wage that exceeds the wage of its
lowest paid employee by 100 times.

This is to ensure those that toil are kept to the


same ratio of pay over time in a successful business so
that the rich cannot become richer as compared to the
poorest wage earner. This helps to stabilize the pay of
the productive and still leave room for a hierarchy of
pay within your organization.
40
The Path to Awe
A pure capitalist is screaming, “What if the guy at
the bottom is not worth the increase in pay?”. One of
two things will happen. One, you will eliminate the
position making the company more efficient and
thereby making it more profitable or two, you will keep
the employee because their labor wage rate is in
proper ratio to the highest paid employees. Remember
it is the Equilibric philosophy that we are all in the boat
together so everyone that works to make a company a
success shall share in its rewards.
Notice how this is a forced but just distribution of
wealth that does not empower the government to
control our lives or our money. By distributing it rather
than letting it concentrate within the economy makes
the economy much more stable and less susceptible to
depression and recession. Will there still be
concentrations of wealth? Yes there will be, but they
will be natural concentrations and not unnatural
concentrations that are forced by the edicts of
government entities.
Yes, wealth is limited within a company, but
overall wealth is not limited, for an ambitious man
may own many companies and become very wealthy,
but this could never be construed as an unjust wealth
because it is a justly earned wealth.
To keep market fluctuations at a minimum due to
unproductive forces the government must be
stabilized. Markets do not like change from outside
forces and the market reacts with huge swings due to
governmental intervention. You cannot create a good
business atmosphere if you are always worried how
much your taxes from various government entities will
either take from your company or from your customers
thereby limiting their capacity to purchase your good
or service.
Businesses currently sail in a rough capitalist sea
but under a Equilibric sea it would be like sailing
across glass.
In an Equilibric economy things would still operate
much as they do now but with better and less

41
The Path to Awe
government intervention with an emphasis on not
empowering the government nor concentrating
wealth.

3) The government may impose a tax on


income that when combined with all
lesser governments tax on income is not
to exceed one tenth of an individuals
total income. All local, state, county, and
federal governments must share this tax
equally. Income tax may be used only for
Defense and Education of the Nation by
the Federal government.

This law makes all governments within the


United States work together because now they cannot
arbitrarily impose a tax upon the people. This limited
taxation limits the size of all governments within the
realm (borders of our nation).

4) The government may impose a sales tax


that when combined with all lesser
government’s tax on sales is not to
exceed one tenth of the product or
services sale. All local, state, county,
and federal governments must share
this tax equally. This tax is an
articulated tax in that this tax is used
only to regulate the markets from which
it was derived. Sales tax may be
increased an additional 5% in times of
war and this additional money collected
may be used exclusively by the office of
the president to wage war provided that
congress has declared war and has
defined the terms of which they will
consider the war won.

42
The Path to Awe
What this means:

Your total combined sales tax rate is 10% and the


congress may define all markets as broadly or as
specifically as they wish. The sales tax derived from
each of these markets shall then regulate only those
specific markets. The congress could lump all food and
drugs into one market and then the money derived
from the tax on the market will fund its regulation such
as the FDA. Congress may exempt or reduce tax on
any specific item but may never increase the overall
tax of 10%.

The President only after the congress has


declared war and has defined the terms of the wars
end may impose and additional 5% sales tax that he
alone may exclusively use to end any war without any
interference from congress on these funds.

Congress may not declare war on any nation or


ideology without first defining specifically the terms
under which they would consider the war won.

Keep in mind in an Equilibric economy there is no


arbitrary taxation. All taxes are set at a maximum and
the only thing the congress may do is to arbitrarily
reduce taxes. No state, county, federal, or local
governments may impose a burden beyond the
maximum such as on liquor and cigarettes. If products
are a burden to society then they may be outlawed by
a vote of the people but not by the will of congress.

5) All businesses for the first 5 years of


operation will pay no sales tax. Local,
county, state, or federal governments
may abate taxes beyond 5 years with a
two-thirds vote.

This is to spur growth in the economy. Rather


than setting up government programs to provide
grants and loans to new businesses the equilibric law

43
The Path to Awe
just never takes their money they earned in the first
place.

6) The Federal government must set a


federally mandated minimum wage,
living wage, family wage, and maximum
wage. The living wage shall be five
times the minimum wage and the family
wage shall be six time the minimum
wage and the maximum wage is four
hundred times the minimum wage. The
minimum wage shall be set at an
amount that an employee shall be able
to afford a nutritionally sustaining meal
for one hours worth of labor.

Don’t get too excited as this wage classification


sounds like it is just ripe with communist division and
class warfare.

The minimum wage is the least amount that by


law any citizen may make in private industry. Children,
prison labor, foreign labor, and government jobs may
pay less than this rate. So if minimum wage is set at
$6.00/hr then the living wage would be set at $30.00
per hour and $36.00 per hour for a family wage and of
course $2400.00 per hour for the maximum wage.

You may earn an amount that exceeds the


maximum wage .

7) Any amount earned above the federally


set maximum wage which is based upon
2000 hours per year you will be required
to donate to a federally approved
charity of your choice an amount equal
to an additional 10% of wages in excess
of the maximum wage.

This economic law privatizes welfare so the


needy get better more efficient care and the abusers
of the welfare system are more easily and efficiently
44
The Path to Awe
weeded out. This provides for competition between
charitable organizations making the care and quality
of services better than what the government could
ever provide. This will allow those that are religious to
give to their church, synagogue, or temple. Keep in
mind, though this is a compulsory donation, this
money going to the charities come from individuals
and not a faceless government entity. This directly
involves the people at the top with the people at the
bottom.

According to the governments best estimates


$.75 of every dollar goes to support the bureaucracy
involved in the welfare system and only $.25 of every
dollar now gets to the impoverished. This way, the
citizen can decide which charities to give to based
upon how much money actually reaches needy
individuals.

Any person may give to federally approved


charities and reduce their income upon which they pay
tax.

Notice that this wage classification is articulated


so if the minimum wage is raised by congress then so
is the maximum wage. If congress lowers minimum
wage then the maximum wage is also then lowered.

What is the purpose of the family wage and


living wage? These are used to rate the economy, a
perfectly blended economy has 30% of jobs making
less than a living wage, 30% of jobs at living wage but
less than a family wage, 30% of jobs at more than a
family wage but less than a maximum wage, and 10%
of jobs making more than maximum wage. In an
equilibric economy a politicians pay is rewards based
upon how many jobs are in each sector so politicians
have an incentive to produce the conditions favorable
for a good business climate. The more family wages a
politician has in his district the better paid they will be.
This helps to curb corruption by giving a politician a

45
The Path to Awe
legitimate way to earn wealth rather than being paid a
stipend not based upon their performance and then
take funds from special interest and lobbyist which
make them act in their own best interest and not in
the interest of the people.
Why is performance based on family wages? The
Templars recognized that a strong family unit always
produces a strong and robust society no matter what
religion you may follow or even if you are not religious
at all. It cost more to raise a family and the
government should not be a burden unto the family
unit. Families get special exemptions from taxes and
though there are a number of religious, moral, and
ethical reasons for these exemptions if you examine
this from a purely business perspective…..The more
children you have raised properly the more potential
income sources the government has.

8) Married couples for the first five years


of marriage may exempt one income
earner of the household that works less
than 1000 hours from paying any income
taxes. This exemption may be extended
for 18 years provided the marriage
bears offspring within the first five
years of marriage and that your children
reside with you for 18 years.
9) Divorce renders the family tax
exemption null and void and taxes will
be assessed retroactively from the date
of the divorce and be shared by both
parties.
Instead of the government imposing a marriage
penalty they are imposing a divorce penalty if you
choose to take this exemption.

Another incentive to be productive according to


the Templars is

46
The Path to Awe
10) All income is only taxed, based on a 5
day week and the congress may not set
the workday to be less than 6 hours nor
more than 10 hours upon which tax is
assessed. No income tax will be
assessed on bonuses provided that
bonuses are not more that 15% of your
normal income.

This means if the work week is set at five eight


hour days, any hours worked over your eight hour day
is not taxed and neither are the other 2 days of the
week.

The big difference in the tax strategy in the


equilibric economy is that it works on both its strength
and weaknesses.

First, a large part of the IRS could be eliminated


as income tax would be directly deducted from your
paycheck and paid to the government. No paperwork
for the individual to make out. The only paperwork you
would have to file for is for a marriage and child
exemption and this would be done through your
employer. The IRS would just be in charge of making
sure companies were deducting taxes from your check
and making sure they were being paid to the IRS. The
federal government would get a steady stream of tax
revenue all year long and wouldn’t have to wait for a
specific date to get a large infusion of cash. This is a
strength that the government can analyze the
economy in real time and if it is having problem they
can address it right away.

These first ten laws are obviously lifted out of


the repository of Templar knowledge and have been
adapted to the current time and situation to better
demonstrate how Templeanic laws of Conservatism
could be instituted in America. To show you this in
practical means is easier to learn and demonstrate
how these laws and equilibric economic principles

47
The Path to Awe
could work to transform our society if we merely have
the will to implement them.

Empowerment of the individual and not the


group is paramount in an Equilibric society as we have
made clear only but some of the principles. Some may
seem socialist and some very liberal. That is kind of
what Equilibrism is. It is a melding of philosophies that
allows no one to give up their values or principles.

Socialism does not work because it is not the


most efficient means of structuring a business. When
there is no boss and the workers control the business
the workers will do only what is in the best interest of
the workers and not that of the business. They will put
themselves out of a job because outside forces will
adopt a more efficient system. This is why socialism is
stagnant and leads to communism.

Take for example a car company being ran by


the workers. New technology has been invented in the
form of a robot that could potentially eliminate 10
human jobs and would pay itself off in one year saving
the company millions of dollars and helping to lower
cost so the company could gain a competitive edge
over it’s competition. But no worker wants to see ten
workers lose their jobs so they vote not to purchase
the robots and their competition does and they
eventually put them out of business because they
failed to adapt and change in a competitive market.

A free market then drives down the costs of a


product so more people could afford cars and more
cars are sold overall and so then the company that
makes the robots will have to hire workers to pick up
the demand for sales of their robots.

It is fundamental that people do not like change


but no change means that society stagnates. A
stagnant society will fall apart because nature is ever
evolving. You have more children being born everyday

48
The Path to Awe
so everything has to become more efficient and at
some point evolve.

We are literally trying to force an evolution in


energy because we realize that we will deplete our
current energy sources in the future, so rather than
letting this occur naturally we are reacting to this
realization in trying to change to new types of fuel.
Change is inevitable.

This is the reason why the worker cannot run the


company (they do not breed efficiency) and that the
management must have the profit motive to make the
business entity profitable at all times and so they must
make the hard decision upon when to affect a change.

Wealth has attached to it, two deadly sins,


greed, and jealously. Who says how much is too much
and how much is not enough is all a matter of
perspective. The biggest detriment to today’s
American economy is that there are a few wealthy
individuals ruining it for other wealthy individuals
because of greed. A few wealthy individuals shortcut
the ethical and moral system and start getting rich by
breaking the back of the little guy. This not only causes
mass resentment of the rich, but causes jealously to
grow and fester.

By putting checks and balances onto wealth so


that it can only be earned and not stolen, the little guy
is less apt to be jealous of a rich man and may want to
follow in his footsteps.

Everything must be at its very pretense in


society “Earned”. You earn through work or ingenuity
and nothing is ever given for free by the government.
This is why charity must be privatized so that
government does not have the ability to favor any
special groups of people that have not “earned” that
special recognition.

49
The Path to Awe
You can see an example of how socialized
America has become by the reluctance to adopt
technology by their government. Honestly, they have
been using the chalkboards for 200 years in American
Schools and you don’t think they could of come up
with something better. The teachers have a socialized
union. Pay is not based upon the performance of a
teacher but upon their longevity of service. So
teachers continue to use chalkboards. We have
satellites that could beam the classroom right into the
student’s house. We have the Internet, where a child
may ask as many questions as they would like. We
have the technology to give every child a far cheaper
and far better education that they now have at a
fraction of the cost and have that education directly
tailored to the needs of the child.

Breaking the teachers union would mean the


loss of millions of school jobs and thousands of
teachers out of work. But wait a second. Taxes are
reduced, products are cheaper so more people can
afford them, businesses hire the out of work school
workers and teachers and the society has been
bettered because more people have bettered their
condition. Now apply this philosophy to hundreds of
college courses that could be taught virtually and you
see the real power of technology and innovation.

Wisdom is being withheld by the very system


that purports to provide it for free or at a reasonable
cost. One teacher on a video can teach millions and a
video production can have a far greater impact than a
teacher ever could by having reenactments and short
movie like productions. Children could ask questions
online and even go to a frequently ask question
section as well as having a forum of other students.
We have held back our children and helped to destroy
families by not adopting technology because of a
socialist system that is ruining the educational system.
Taxes are tied to the heart of the teachers union and it
bears a large cost of the struggling American economy.
50
The Path to Awe
All of our technology should be affordable and it would
be if our government and unions adopted technology,
but since only the free portion of our economy is
progressing and the other portion of our economy is
stagnating. Progress in technology has cost us and we
are getting to the point if we don’t put an end to our
socialist programs we will not be able to afford to
progress, and that is the point where we go down the
road of socialism and into communism.

So by the philosophy you must earn what you


keep can be associated to voting rights which in turn
curbs socialism. Socialism by its very nature is
minority rule. A few (the government) rule over the
many (the people).

The last ten economic principles change the


dynamic in the markets and in the government but a
fundamental change must occur in voting rights.
Minority rule by its very nature is oppression of the
majority and that is exactly what a tyranny is. By
bending over backwards to the special interest you
allow a few to have power over the many. Power such
as wealth must be earned and the original intentions
of our founding fathers must be reapplied in order to
take America off the path of communism.

All issues dealing with money were to originate


in the House of Representatives and only taxpayers
could vote for a House Rep. Since the taxpayer is the
one that earns the money they should be the only one
that decides how to spend it. Clearly, it was never
their intention to let those that do not contribute
decide how other peoples money is spent. So a simple
voting law for the House of Representatives would be
one that states “ All property owners and taxpayers
that pay more in taxes than what they receive in
government assistance, are not a child, and have
never been convicted of a felony and are a citizen of
the U.S. may vote for a House Rep.”

51
The Path to Awe
It is the Senate where the voice of the
unproductive may be heard as all citizens not
convicted of a felony may vote but the senate can only
approve issues of money and not originate any
spending bills.
The president and their vice president would
follow the same voting rights as the senate. This
protects those that earn and yet gives the minority of
the unproductive a voice to be heard.

Americans fought one war by the slogan of “No


taxation without representation” and they will fight a
coming political war with the slogan “No
representation without taxation”.

It would be easy to use technology to verify the


voting process and dramatically reduce its cost so
taxpayers could be easily be identified on election day.
With American ingenuity you should be able to vote
from your home come election day and the process
should be far more accurate and prevent far more
voter fraud than what is now done.

It could work like this: You’d go to your local


board of elections sometime before an election and
register. After verification of your citizenship and your
taxpayer status they would let you input personal
information into a computer profile and they would
issue you a dongle that gives a unique security
identifier for only you and then they would have you
answer some security question identifiers. You could
then vote on any computer that could connect to the
Internet and that uses encryption and decryption
technology. You would log into the voting website
using your dongle and answer security questions.
While you’re voting you can pull up the pertinent
politician and bring up their history and past voting
record. After you are done selecting your candidates
you press the submit button and you have voted and
you will receive a confirmation number. Once a

52
The Path to Awe
computer talliesthe votes your state auditor must
publish a list of confirmation numbers on a website
that any one can verify that their vote did count. If a
voter doesn’t find their confirmation number then the
auditor must let the voter cast their ballot again if it is
discovered within 30 days after the election results
were posted. Computers can be used at local schools,
libraries, and post offices if a citizen does not own one
and the government could justify a low cost computer
program for education to provide to virtually all
citizens that could be used for all interaction with the
US government. This would be far cheaper than the
high priced bureaucracy it employs now.

So under this philosophy government would be


greatly reduced and yet would be greatly enhanced.
This is what the open adoption of technology does. It
allows you to do more with less. Notice how the
government would start to mirror the business sector.
You have a small amount of people at the top running
a business according to rules to make the entire
country prosper. They use the minimum amount of
resources to make the most profit. So idealistic plans
that are not financially viable are not enacted into law
burdening the productive.

53
The Path to Awe
Chapter 5
The Nature of Laws

Changes in economic markets deal with


natural law and voting rights concern regulatory law.
Then there are morality laws, laws that define the
moral character of a community.

Templeanic law divides all laws into three


categories Natural laws, which are broad and apply to
everyone and cannot be changed, or circumvented,
Regulatory laws are laws that can be broad but may be
specific and can be changed and amended, and
morality laws are very specific laws that are always
temporary in nature.

Natural law is like federal laws as they apply to


everyone, Regulatory law is like State law, and
Morality law is like municipal law. The difference is that
in the Templar philosophy the larger the amount of
people under one government the lesser the amount
of laws you impose and the smaller the number of
people that are governed by a small government then
the more laws they may impose on themselves. In
essence the Federal government should only have but
a few laws, the state should have more laws and the
community should have even more laws. Natural laws
are laws, such are like the ones defined in the
American Bill of Rights. Natural Laws cause prosperity
and limit chaos naturally and they are laws that most
may recognize as a benefit to the individual. They are
the rock upon which all other laws would expand upon.
Under Templeanic law the congress and the president
would meet and decide the laws and no other laws
would be passed…ever. Thou shall not kill, kidnap,
maim, or mutilate would be an example of a natural
law. The vast majority of all people would agree with
these laws and as such they are the core, the rock,
and the foundation of the legal system. A law such as
54
The Path to Awe
banning cigarettes could only be a state law or a
municipal law. A state would have to approve such a
law with a two thirds vote of all registered voters (not
just those that vote). A morality law which could only
be a community law is like a law banning prostitution.
This is a law that has to be passed every year and
must be passed by a two thirds vote of all possible
voters (not just all registered voters) .

This system of law lets an individual tailor where


and how he wishes to live and it lets communities
thrive or die based upon the decision they make and it
also distributes power more evenly, rather than just
concentrating it into the hands of a few in Washington.
This way the legislature can get back to making
business decisions with your money, rather than being
like a hypochondriac trying to pass a law to solve
everything, and in the process screw up all the
markets. Let the local markets deal with the day-to-
day decisions of their governance for they are the
ones actually there and having to deal with local
problems.

This let’s one live by ones own accord as long as


they do not adversely affect their neighbor’s
prosperity.

There will be communities that will allow


recreational drugs and there will be communities that
allow prostitution, and there will be communities that
allow gambling, and there will also be communities
that ban all of this. You are free to move to the
community that best represent your lifestyle. This way
laws are somewhat tailored to those, which it serves.
Some communities may prosper and some may fail.
From those that fail, we all gain wisdom from and try
to resurrect a community that will work better.

A customized society. Isn’t that what we all


want? If a Christian want to live among those that
have similar values why shouldn’t they and if a Sex

55
The Path to Awe
addicts wants to live among prostitutes then what is
the harm if you are both successful. Let both
philosophies exist side by side but not intermingled. If
the Christian community want to ban all PG and R and
X rated television and sales or displays of pornography
they should be allowed to. If you go to a swinger
community and they allow sex in public don’t be
offended by what you see. That is their community.
Just like your house is your house and no one else can
tell you what you can or cannot do in your house
unless of course you are breaking a natural law and
then you have to be vary obvious that you are
breaking a natural law cause no one can go into your
house without a warrant.

By passing a morality law at a higher level you


limit the amount of space that people can live by their
own accord and with the top government making
many laws it is sure to cause the problems that
nobody can live by their own accord and they start to
live by the government edicts. That is a government
over the people and not by the people. So by limiting
the federal and slightly expanding the state and
greatly expanding community law everyone can exist
without an axe to grind against the government that is
supposed to unite us rather than divide us.

These laws dictate the path for all communities


so the accuracy they take and the form of vote effect
them economically, so the voting law of the Templars
are adopted into the Equilibric principles of the
economy

What is the link between law, taxes, value, and


ideology? This is a rather long answer but follow us as
we can wrap it up into a neat little package at the end.

Taxes are necessary to define and regulate a


market. Without taxes to protect the market the
market may not exist or it may not be fair and
equitable to those operating within the market.

56
The Path to Awe
It is necessary to keep taxes to a minimum to
eliminate unnecessary waste and to keep markets
operating on a most efficient basis. What are common
forms of waste and value of a product?:

Waste is an item that adds no value to the


product for the consumer but add cost.

1) Packaging

2) Storage

3) Transportation

4) Merchandising

5) Advertising

6) Retail Profits

7) Taxes

All of these items add cost to the product but


add no value to the product.

Value added items are:

1) Uniquely engineered products


2) Fit, finish, or quality
3) Superior raw materials
4) Superior process in manufacturing an item
5) Superior finished goods

All these Items add cost but also add value to


the consumer.

So it is a benefit to decrease waste in an item


and increase the value of items at the lowest possible
cost. The lower the cost an item is with a higher value
the more competitive it will be in the market place.
Some markets dictate the amount of waste such
as the American market spans a large area so the
transportation cost of getting goods to market is

57
The Path to Awe
relatively high. Since the American market is very
competitive the merchandising and advertising costs
will be assumed to be high.
Since markets dictate non-value added cost
these are deemed uncontrollable, taxes on the other
hand are self-imposed by the government upon a
market, and though we don’t like to think of them as
such, they are a controllable cost.
So when faced with a choice of raising the cost
because of waste within a product and putting it out of
reach of a potential customer, you are actually
lessening its value in comparison to the selling price.
This is a throttle on the market if the market is most
efficient. Throttle up equals low taxes, throttle down
equals high taxes. Templars believe in slow steady
growth and a minimal tax does retard natural growth
but if the tax is efficient and is used for regulatory
purposes such as ensuring the longevity, quality,
safety, and fair competition of the market then this is
a benefit to the consumer. Taxes generated in excess
of regulation use can only be considered a detriment
to the market.
So by stealing from the rich to give to the poor in
order to fund social programs does nothing but inflate
the cost of a product.
What? How’d the authors come up with that?
If you own a business you are a generator of
wealth and you like your wealth. You work for it and
earn it and do not arrive by it by immoral or unethical
means. If more of your earnings are taken from you
then you increase a products cost in order to maintain
your wealth. This spreads the tax cost to products and
if a product costs more, it is put out of the reach of
more people. This makes the poor more poor and the
rich richer in comparison. So, the rich get richer and
the poor get poorer is actually because of socialism or
corruption of capitalism. High taxes inflate cost and by
comparison lower value. The higher we raise our taxes
the less competitive we are in the foreign marketplace.

58
The Path to Awe
Taxing the productive only causes trickle up
poverty. In the short term (very short term) socialism
works because as in nature charity works. In the long
term socialism can provide only fewer and fewer
benefits because of its inefficiency and additional cost
it imposes on the poor through the taxation of the
productive.
Regulation of the rich to ensure that wealth is
“earned wealth” and not gained by unethical or
immoral means is a necessity for with increased
wealth comes the increased potential for corruption.
Corruption increases costs and decreases value just as
socialism does and increases instability in the markets
and the result is the same, the rich get richer and the
poor get poorer.
Just a very small percentage of corrupt wealthy
can decimate the markets just as quickly as a mass
tax on the wealthy.
Corruption and over taxation do not increase the
value of a product, they inflate its cost (hence where
inflation is derived from) and should be eliminated if at
all possible because if there is too muchwaste in
enough markets it creates inefficiency in all markets
and is a detriment to prosperity. By ensuring a tax is
just, fair, and equitable, markets prosper and by
ensuring wealth is just, fair, and proper ensures the
entire society prospers.
Even the most unintelligent can see how
inefficiency raises cost and does not increase value.
Two people being paid $20/hr to make widgets,
one makes 5 widgets per hour and the other makes 20
widgets per hour. It is not the person making 20
widgets per hour that has cut cost, it is the person
making 5 widgets per hour that have increased cost,
since you know it is possible to make 20 widgets per
hour.
As it is in nature (as in evolution) that the best
design or method wins out.
Laziness is inefficiency. Since it is natural for a
business entity to be efficient to be competitive it is

59
The Path to Awe
for this reason there are no job requirements requiring
a new hire to be lazy.
What drives man to be their most efficient?
The threat of loosing your job?
For most, it is the reward for your labor or
ingenuity. It is only natural that you want to be
rewarded in proportion to the value you perceive you
add to a business concern. The more you put “in” is
the more you want “out”.
Socialism offers no rewards for productivity so
Socialism fails because it is fatally flawed by not
recognizing the nature of man.
Examine the first five laws of Templarism
ideology and if you agree with them you will see that
socialism in any form is diametrically opposite to the
nature of man. Socialism’s no rewards for productivity
means no rewards for efficient labor and thusly the
whole basis for Carl Marx’s great society is a lie and a
sham and to still believe in such a philosophy that is
so easily disproven by logic, history, and the nature of
man is not only irrational but borders on the edge of
an outright brainwashing.
Socialism, at its basis, is class warfare and the
elimination of upper and lower classes. This is not
natural, there needs to be a ying to a yang. Man’s
spirit yearns for the ladder of success and yet there
are many, through ignorance that seeks to take that
ladder away. Even when socialism is introduced into a
free economy you can then see why the poor think the
rich get richer and the poor get poorer when really the
wealth gets concentrated so there are fewer rich that
are even more wealthy but there are far more poor
even though some may be slightly better off than what
they were before socialism was introduced.
As more and more people become content with
the scraps they are thrown, the free market will
cascade into socialism. This is where the unproductive
rule over the productive and then, eventually the
productive give into despair and quit being productive.
Once the productive quit being productive or leave the

60
The Path to Awe
country then the slide into full-blown communism is
inevitable. The people are forced to be productive.
This production is only minimally efficient because the
spirit of the individual has been broken and there are
no rewards for their labor. This high cost of inefficiency
causes a spiraling downturn in the government
because the amount of the poor continues to grow
even against the best efforts of the government. The
government must spend more and more on police and
military to keep control of their country until
eventually the country and its people waste away only
to be reborn again at some future date.
Man does not prosper under socialism,
communism, or liberalism but his spirit withers and
dies. Communism emphasizes the “we” and not the “I”
in the form of the government. Communism
concentrates its wealth in the government.
Corrupt capitalism is no better than Socialism or
Communism and will actually lead to the latter if
allowed to flourish unchecked. Capitalism emphasizes
wealth and the promise of reward proportional to your
input. Corrupt capitalism through unethical and
immoral business practices allow only a select few to
prosper and prevents others from the same
achievement. This greases the rungs on the ladder of
success and causes despair and increases inefficiency,
which makes the poor poorer and the rich richer and
thereby leads to socialism, and communism.
Equilibrism emphasizes the individual and the
nature of man. Mans spirit should never be broken, for
man is at his most productive when his spirit is high.
By limiting the wealth that government may acquire
from it’s citizens, to be used to expand itself, limits
corruption within the government.
Ethical rewards based pay for representatives’
builds an efficient and productive government that is
less susceptible to corruption.
By having a government that is not corrupt and
is limited, the government can only then make

61
The Path to Awe
decisions that are not based upon corruption and are
based upon fact and logic.
With only reason and logic left for politicians to
debate rather than ideologies and biases there will be
a defacto end of liberalism, socialism, and the path to
communism will be averted and the country will again
be on the path to Awe.
It is a fallacy to think you vote out corruption in
the American democracy as long as you cannot place
limits on your representatives. The only thing we can
do, and allow them to still operate is to inhibit their
ability to steal and concentrate wealth.
Americans have realized a few immoral and
unethical wealthy have ruined American dream. Enron,
Global Crossing, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, the dot COM
bubble they all wasted hard “earned” money and
made the American dream harder to obtain.
Once Americans realize socialism will only make
things worse they will make a sudden and dramatic
change and repair the true problem. Thomas Jefferson
had a lot correct when he authored the Constitution,
but he left off just a few entries that would have
prevented this countries cataclysmic destruction by
the hands of a few greedy and by many of the jealous.
Since Equilibrism, by logic and practice is
superior to other ideologies in its ability to allow man
to prosper by empowering man through normal and
natural means allows Equilibrism to be adopted into
law by man. Since this law is derived from nature then
those that believe that nature is the will of the creator,
should recognize that these laws are derived thereof.
Equilibrism can be all things to all people
because it is the recognition of the obvious and the
relevant and it is not made complex when
unnecessary to bend the law to the will of man.

Yes, these first ten laws applied to the American


economy are not a literal translation but this is the gist
of what they would mean when applied to Americas
present-day political climate.

The Path to Awe

11) A vote of apprehension may be used to


remove any public official and so duly
noted this shall end the politicians term
A vote of apprehension is a vote of no confidence
of the people. Instead of having term limits a vote of
apprehension ends a politicians term. If 50% of
possible voters vote and have no confidence in the
politician then an election will be held to fill that
position. So for a presidential election every three
years there would be an election to see if the people
like the job the president is doing. If 50% of the
registered voters were to vote him down then an
election for a new president would take place in the
fourth year.

12) When the public votes on issues then


the count of all registered voters will be
tallied, those not voting directly will
have their votes registered against
passing an issue. For if an issue is not
popular enough to vote for then
ambivalence to an issue shall not let an
issue pass.

This forces all Americans to take a stand on one


side of the fence or on the other. By not caring to vote
then your vote will be tallied as a vote for no change.
This is the concept of passive voting. If you do nothing
(as in not voting) then nothing changes.
All morality laws are issues brought before the
voters so if you are registered and do not vote directly
you will vote passively on all morality laws.

Templeanic law and Equilibric principles dictate


that: No law governing morals shall be put into effect
for a people without a majority vote of “all” of age,
potential voters. In the case of ambivalence then no
law shall be passed, as unnecessary laws limit mans
63
The Path to Awe
ability to be productive. All moral laws shall be of a
determined duration so as to reflect the contemporary
values and morals of the people living under the laws.
No moral law shall be effective for more than four
years. Moral laws are expressly community based and
are never to be implemented by the Federal
Government. States may enact permanent morality
laws if two thirds of all potential voters vote on an
issue then it may become permanent.

13) All voters may have the option to vote


for a null issue or null candidate. If a
null candidate or null issue wins an
election then the election must be re-
held and only new candidates may run in
the election and any issues must be
rewritten to better reflect the will of the
people.
Null candidates or null issues are always put on
all ballots. By voting for a null candidate you are
saying that none of the current candidates are
acceptable so the current incumbent stays in that
position until a new election may transpire with new
candidates. This allows the people to get what they
want and keeps money from being the sole source by
which candidates win races.

A null issue vote means we like 80% to 90% of


what you have written but there is just a small part of
the issue that is unacceptable to us and the issue
needs to be rewritten. The null voting allows the
politicians to hear the voice of the people more clearly
and thereby make better decisions.

Voting laws affect the economy greatly as it


allows the people to best choose the candidate that
will make them the most efficient and allow them to
remove candidates on the same basis for being
inefficient.

64
The Path to Awe
The wasting of earned capital is exactly why the
American economy has become so unstable. All the
swings in the economy can be traced back to too
much action by our politicians. By acting too much to
try to help our economy and the poor and underserved
they have not allowed others to prosper and have kept
the economic climate in flux. It is this constant
changing of rules and laws that causes such instability.
Compound a constantly changing economic
environment with corruption that further waste earned
capital then you have a recipe for disaster.

By wasting or destroying earned capital in large


amounts you will eventually destroy the economy. It is
paramount for a prospering economy to limit waste of
earned capital and this is done through the elimination
of over-regulation, social program that overly benefit
those that do not earn, welfare programs, and
corruption.

How can you waste capital? Within the sphere of


the economic cycle money and property can change
hands justly, morally, and ethically. Money may also
change hands unjustly, immorally, and unethically
which leads to unnatural concentrations of wealth.
Unnatural concentrations of wealth hurt the economy
as it devalues all capital because those that are now in
possession of the capital did not legitimately earn the
capital and they place less value upon it. This inferior
value they place on it allows the economy to be
altered by their disbursement of capital. For an
example: Items purchased with unearned capital may
cause a demand for items that there would not
normally be a demand for. Since there is a demand for
these products then the people that are hired to
produce these products are not hired by people
making product that there is a demand for by
legitimately derived funds.

The people making product for the illegitimately


derived demand would be much better served
65
The Path to Awe
producing products that are legitimately needed since
illegitimate enterprises are normally temporary and
they will find themselves out of work soon.

Take our credit crisis for an example: Fannie Mae


and Freddie Mac through corruption managed to make
banks give out loans to those that did not “earn” them.
They took terms that were not a value to them
because it was not their money that got them their
house. Since they did make some payments on the
house they do place some value on the house but not
as much as they would if they had money down. This
corruption in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac made many
employees of these companies rich, which in turn
wasted earned capital in the form of their pay and
bonuses. Then there was the illegitimate demand for
housing because of corruption that put thousands of
construction workers to work and trained thousands of
new construction workers for an industry that should
of never existed at such a size. Now these workers are
out of business as well. Thousands of people out of
their homes and thousands of workers out of work and
since Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac fraudently
packaged these loans as securities and placed them
on the world market with a false value this only
compounded the problem world wide as it was allowed
to spread its corruption out over the whole economy.
By allowing this unnatural concentration of wealth to
occur and the waste of earned capital (your tax
dollars) we literally paid to have our own economy
screwed up. Such is the danger of social programs.

The American economy is suffering not only


because of this one scandal but because of many
other areas of the economy are illegitimate and the
people working in those markets should be working on
jobs naturally derived from the economy but because
of social programs and corruption we are all holding
ourselves back, for we cannot realize the true potential
of the economy without flushing the waste and
illegitimacy from the system. A person who is now
66
The Path to Awe
flipping burgers because there may be an unnatural
demand for them because of social programs that limit
the potential of those that they help, should in fact,
maybe, the next scientist that discovers how to power
your car on water.
The whole focus of the Templars is to get the
government out of the economy and put them in
charge as the referee so all laws shall reflect this
mentality.

So the law of man is inherently linked to his


economy and the better that these laws help to
distribute wealth naturally the better that society will
flourish under these laws. Americans have just allowed
the government to grab too much power and actually
get into the game rather than officiating from the
sidelines.

Moral laws also affect the waste of earned capital


and this is why there is such an overwhelming desire
of religion to interfere into mans law. Moral laws will
either help to limit waste or legitimatize waste.

“How is this? “ You may ask? Let’s use alcohol as


an example: Alcohol is not required in your diet to
survive and when consumed, it may give you an
euphoric feeling but your potential to spin out of
control and cause detriment to yourself and society is
increased and hence become unproductive. So if you
pay for something that makes you unproductive or
causes you to loose your wealth this is considered
waste.

If you go to a store and buy a towel, a towel has a


use that you can use again and again and it is a
tangible product. You paid for something and got
something permanent. Take cigarettes for example
you buy a pack and smoke them and then you have
nothing. The money you spent cigarettes you have
nothing to show for (consumption of food is different
because it is life sustaining). Some would say those
67
The Path to Awe
these moral vices are a release and prevent an
individual from doing something worse and this is a
very possible and real point that they make and so,
since it cannot be disproven that they are wrong then
the people should make this decision among
themselves and regulate these laws unto the
communities in which they live. This means a
community may flourish or die dependent upon the
moral laws it imposes upon its people. It is only
through this free will that other communities may gain
wisdom from what all communities do to help mold
their laws and direct their communities down the path
to Awe.

Morality laws are the sole domain of the


community but we have not spoken about regulatory
law yet. Regulatory laws are laws that are passed by
the State or Federally elected legislature. Regulatory
laws allow communities to work together under a
common set of laws. These laws are passed at the
state level and the state legislature may send these
laws to the federal legislature for consideration of
uniform adoption. State level adoption of a regulatory
law require only a majority vote whereas a Federal
level adoption of a regulatory law would require a two
thirds vote and a regulatory law may never originate
at the federal level.

An example of a regulatory law would be like


common street signage. If every community had a
different shape, size, and color of a stop sign then it
would make traveling the highways very inefficient,
there would undoubtedly be mass confusion.

Notice how the Templar looks at the current


structure of the America’s Representative Republic and
changes the concentration of power so that the power
would be spread evenly among the realm.

68
The Path to Awe

chapter 6
The Cellular Economy

The concept of the cellular economy has already


been explained and now we will go into greater detail
and specificity on the cellular economy.

The Templars believed that we must use what


the creator gave us as an example and apply it to
ourselves. The example is nature and our application
of natural systems will allow our economies and
technology to evolve at a greater pace than what they
are currently.

Natural wealth is wealth that is earned and is not


a waste. Government creates waste when it controls
an economy and does not regulate it because
government is inherently inefficient. Moral decisions
by the individual may create waste in an economic
system by making bad choices. Corruption creates
waste as it destroys earned wealth. Limiting waste is
essential to the prosperity of man.

Why are these rules that go against many


capitalist rules of the free economy for? Free
capitalism does not take into account greed. There are
wealthy individuals that have made their riches by
playing fairly and by the rules and then there are the
greedy that have not. Greed creates waste and it is in
the nature of man to be both greedy and jealous.

Keeping greed and jealously in check not only


prevents waste through the elimination of corruption
but it helps to eliminate hate, which is inefficient. So
not only do the poor need to be protected from the
wealthy but the wealthy need to be protected from the
poor.

69
The Path to Awe
In a free economy, unregulated by the
government, the poor may take the government and
then by a fair vote take the money of the rich and
distribute it amongst themselves. This is socialism and
though the poor temporarily improve their present
condition they make their future condition much
worse. The poor need to be protected so that the rich
do not corrupt the government and then the poor can
never get ahead because the rich roadblock their path
to success thereby limiting the rich to a select few.

This is why there must be rules that limit the


way that wealth may be obtained to keep the balance
of natural wealth (earned wealth). By ensuring a fair
process of opportunity to all then class envy, class
warfare, hatred, and socialism maybe averted.

By tying the very rich to the very poor you


create an atmosphere where all can work together
towards a common goal.

A purely capitalist society as explained earlier


keeps the rich richer and the poor poorer. It is this
system that maintains the peaks and valleys of the US
economy.

This is why there is a need for a minimum wage


and a maximum wage. The intent of the compulsory
giving of an additional 10% for maximum wage
earners is not meant as class warfare. With great
wealth and power comes great responsibility and most
of the wealthy have realized this. It is the ones that
have not earned their wealth and have become slaves
to greed that care not about their fellow man but only
about themselves and their money. The compulsory
giving is a way to reduce corruption by giving the
greedy an excuse to go straight. The Templars are not
picking on the wealthy as the majority of wealthy
currently pay more taxes and donate to charity an
amount that exceeds the additional 10% (only after
400 times the minimum wage has been reached). 400

70
The Path to Awe
times is an amount the Templars used in the Levant
but it was clear the legislature could raise this
threshold but could never lower it below 400. In very
good economic times the threshold can be raised to
say 500 times minimum wage and if the economy
starts to grow to fast then it can be lowered back down
to 400 times minimum wage.

Isn’t this a form of wealth redistribution?

No, because it does not give money to the


government to redistribute. You can give to charities
that feed, cloth, house, and educate the homeless or
poor. These are charities and they are not a social
welfare programs. These are a hand up and not a hand
out because they can never be permanent for those
they are supposed to help. These charities now
compete for money and are results oriented to keep
the money coming in so it is imperative that they do a
good job for their donors or the donors will not donate
to that cause anymore.

Charities may also involve the building of


Libraries, Special Schools, Hospitals, Research and
Development of new medicines and medical practices,
For profit businesses for the disabled and impaired,
and services for the aging as well as a multitude of
other charities.

Compensation of politicians is another element


in eliminating corruption. The Templars decreed your
first hours wage, every week, shall pay for your
representation and shall be divided among all the
politicians that represent you. This means there is a
benefit for the politicians to ensure a good business
atmosphere as politicians are only rewarded by those
having jobs. This is an assessment of 1 hour’s worth of
labor per week so it affects everyone equally because
time is the only true means of affecting everyone
equally. If you make $10million per year you will pay
more than a person that makes $30,000 per year but

71
The Path to Awe
you will give up the same number of hours provided
you worked the same number of weeks. Your local
representatives in the district your job is in may get
20% of that hours wage and it would become smaller
as it works it way up the chain so that the President
may only get .005%. This means that the federal
representatives would make millions and the President
and Vice president could make upwards of $20 to $30
million per year. This creates an incentive for the
politicians to work for you and it allows them enough
money for doing a good job that they are not tempted
by the special interest. The best and the brightest will
now run for political office because it directly pays
more than the private sector.

Recurring property tax would be prohibited in an


Equilibric economy because this is a tax on stagnation
and because it does not imply ownership to the
landholder. Think of it this way, the more you improve
your property the more taxes you pay, so you have an
incentive to not improve your property. Isn’tthis
exactly opposite from what it should be? Citizens
must not worry about their property being unjustly
taken from them by their own government. They
should be focused on outside threats and not inside
threats. The security a family has in knowing that no
one may take their shelter once it has been paid off
provides for security in the marketplace and reduces
the need for welfare. This also reduces waste by
keeping the economy productive.

Politicians cannot just rest on their laurels upon


trying to spur economic growth since they now have
no guaranteed piggy bank from which to grab. The
governments use only sales tax and income tax to
operate with. So there will be a 10% sales tax on the
sale of land that the governments will collect but there
will be no recurring property tax as so many counties,
states, and school districts so often use to finance
themselves. This security gained by the citizen
knowing once their property has been paid for and it is
72
The Path to Awe
actually theirs and no one can take it from them allows
them to become more productive and keeps the
government from harming the economy by putting
people on the welfare doles. Now there will be no
punishment for improving your property and all
communities will look as good as their economy will
allow them and the government will not be a monkey
on their back.

This outlawing of recurring property tax will force


reform of not only local governments but also of local
schools. Technology will need to be adopted to make
schools as efficient as possible and a fundamental way
of teaching will change. Children will be able to be
educated in large part at home by using technology.
Traditional schools will only be for those students that
need help for those classes they cannot learn at home.
With the economy doing better and a huge tax
incentive to have a family and an incentive to have
one parent at home, the family will become stronger
and much more healthier. There will always be a local
community school, though it will be much smaller and
much more technologically advanced. There will be far
less teachers due to technology, but the teachers
remaining will be paid far more than what they
currently earn.

For steady growth markets a ratio of productive


employees (wealth generators) for business owners
must be maintained in order to help eliminate peaks
and valleys within the economy. This dilution of wealth
helps keep the economy strong with a slow and steady
growth forecast.

The Equilibrist terms this dilution of wealth as a


cellular economy that is in equilibrium. Lets use the
ball principle again. Instead of a box we will use a
large ball. These balls represent cells. The US is one
large ball with 50 smaller balls within the large ball
that represent the states. Within the smaller balls are
smaller balls that represent counties and within those
73
The Path to Awe
ball are balls representing communities and within
those balls are ball representing the individuals.

Currently, the largest ball has the thickest cell


wall and as each ball gets smaller their cell walls
becomes increasingly thinner. When pressure is
applied to the large ball the first balls that break are
the smallest balls first and then it cascades up to the
larger balls. This is an “External Cellular Economy” the
largest ball is the only real protection from outside
forces. “Internal Cellular Economics” strengthens the
economy from within by eliminating corruption and
socialism. The reason why “External Cellular
Economies” are weak is because every small cell relies
on each other to strengthen the next larger balls cell
wall. By not depending upon each other and
concentrating upon themselves the cells become
virtually indestructible in an internal economy.

By limiting taxes, and distributing wealth


through natural means, the ratio of wealth generators
is maximized whereas by all other unnatural means
there are always a greater ratio of the unproductive.

Templars do believe that there comes a point to


where all the cell walls are strengthened to their
maximum ability and then they must expand.
Expansion (division) of cells in nature is called mitosis
and this is a natural expansion. A new cell created is
its own unique cell and takes its own path to Awe.

The term “Global Economy” or “Globalism” or


even “Free Trade” is a concept that does not enter into
the Templar vernacular. There is no such thing as
Globalism unless you are intent on wrecking not only
your economy but also all the other economies that
you are associated with. The effect of free trade with
other economies with dissimilar laws, rules, and
government types do nothing but weaken economies
by bringing instability into the economies. Not only
does business have to worry about the decisions their

74
The Path to Awe
politicians are making but the politicians of all the
countries they do business with. Doing business with
many countries does not dilute risk nor does it make
economies stronger because of diversification because
contemporary economies are unnatural. You can use
the analogy that the world economies are complex
machines and when these machines join together they
make an even larger and even more complex machine
and so it is with a machine that one little bearing goes
out and the whole machine stops. Diversification is
only possible within common governments that have
limited power and since we have none of those on this
planet then globalism isn’t just some power hungry
scheme it is a dangerous philosophy no matter how
well intentioned it may be.

In America free trade brings the added


detriment of infusing even more corruption into an
already corrupt government. Not only are your
government officials ripe for the plucking of special
interest and lobbyist, but now you have to contend
with foreign officials and business entities. The only
politicians you have left to represent your interest are
the politicians that have moral values and there are
very few of them existing in Washington.

The Templars traded with many different nations


so why is “Free Trade “ so wrong? The Templars only
allowed their colonies to trade with another nation
when it benefitted the Templars. This forces nations to
change in order to do business with the country that
prospers by mirroring the good traits and business
practices of that country and then nations may
become more common. True, free trade can only exist
between common nations, as opening up your markets
to dissimilar nations gives no incentive for the
dissimilar nation to change for the better. Competition
does not overcome this hurdle it just creates an unfair
disadvantage the other country cannot overcome and
then countries that once stood on their own two feet
now become dependent upon other countries.
75
The Path to Awe
China is a communist country and though it has
changed, it only changed because pure communism
was killing the country. They infused some capitalism
to a people wallowing in despair and gave them a
short ladder to climb and now they are generating
wealth but they are still a highly repressive country.
Since we opened free trade with China (as well
as Mexico and Brazil) we have seen our jobs move
overseas making us more dependent upon other
nations such as China for our manufacturing. The
Templars strongly believed in tariffs upon dissimilar
countries where these tariffs went directly towards the
defense of the colonies and they believed in price
floors for similar nations with differing rules and
regulations. So a country like China would have had
tariffs imposed upon their products so their communist
régime could not prosper unnaturally. China’s military
and technology is now becoming such a threat that it
now rivals our own military and if they did have
delusions of grandeur and attacked the US we could
blame ourselves for giving them the capability. Their
wealth should not exist except for the corruption of our
politicians selling us down the road. They will argue
that doing business with China saves Americans
thousands of dollars per year and they would be right.

This socialist program called “Free Trade” really


means dependency, and like everything socialized, it
fails. Since our jobs go overseas then there are more
and more people that can afford less and less
products, such a time has come to pass that doing
business with China is no longer a benefit to us
because it has brought so much waste into the system
that all of our money is devalued due to inflation.

Trade with similar nations do not require tariffs


but do require a price floor to level the playing field of
the market so as to not detrimentally affect domestic
companies. So lets say in the automotive market we
may set a price of $22,000 is the minimum a foreign
76
The Path to Awe
country may charge for a 4-cylinder 4-door coupe.
They may always charge more but never less and this
price floor is the same for all similar nations. This still
keeps competition because the competition for
improvements, and technological enhancements are
left open to the consumer to benefit from.
When a Globalist or Capitalist brings up how
great “Free Trade” is, just tell them “Nothing in this
world is for free and this free trade has cost us dearly”.
What has it gained for the country that was the
bastion of liberty where a man had the right of life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? Has that not
been sold by our politicians? Are we not more
dependent because of this? Does not our trade of oil
prop up the most disgusting and vile of régimes that
wish to destroy us and do we not willingly enable the
virtual enslavement of entire nations because of our
wealth being concentrated into the hands of dictators?
Has trade with China and Mexico made the American
family stronger or unstable? Does the world still look
up to the United States because she has weakened
herself and brought herself down to the levels of other
nations? Or is she not more despised by other nations?
Are we not more dependent upon our enemies? Our
dependency now knows no bounds, all or our textiles,
manufacturing, and energy jobs are going or have
gone overseas. When Ford, GM, or Exxon go under you
might as well stick a fork in us because then the slide
into socialism will be inevitable.

Truly free markets only work between very


similar nations such as the US and Canada because
neither one has a competitive advantage. That is
where Templars would like to head but “Free Trade”
must also be “Fair Trade”. Without the premise of fair
trade then we do not lift other countries up around us
we just bring ourselves down to their level because
this is a wholly owned socialistic philosophy, even
though many misguided, so called conservatives
believe in this concept. Tariffs on similar nations do not
77
The Path to Awe
allow enough competition and remember that all
tariffs go to the defense of the nation and do not enter
the economy by subsidizing other businesses or
markets. If this wealth were to be used by the
legislature then the wealth would be allowed to
concentrate and the economy would be lopsided
towards businesses and programs of a socialist type
nature.

So to conclude on the topic of foreign trade it is


necessary to trade, but time, effort, and thought must
be put into the trade of every product of another
nation so the domestic economy is not adversely
affected.

Banking and investing as the Templars would


have it, would be similarly different than what is
currently in place today. Though many conspiracy
theorist would have you believe the Templars to be an
evil organization and want you to think the Federal
Reserve Bank was created and is still owned and ran
by the Knights Templar to steal wealth and to bend all
men to their will. This ridiculousness has no basis in
reality.

The Templars do not prescribe to the notion of


One World Order where one government of a select
few to rule over the entire world. This is Bible
prophecy as a signal to the end of days, and as a
Christian sect that cherishes life why would anyone
think they would want to bring about the end of the
world.

Templars do believe in the “New World Order”,


which is commonly confused with the One World
Order. The New World Order does not meld all the
countries together into one nation nor does it seek to
take from any country its sovereignty nor does it seek
a common world currency. All of these things would
eliminate competition and diversity and that will not
lead man down the path to Awe.

78
The Path to Awe
All nations must remain intact and different
forms of government are not discouraged but
areencouraged. This is the only way that man
progresses down the path. If there are no challenges
or new ideas to help better mans condition then man
will stagnate and his condition will become worse, not
better. The “New World Order” is a set of self imposed
rules known as orders and to all countries that choose
to join, the orders seek to put all markets on an even
playing field by having a common set of rules by which
all markets operate. This is not an organization that
will impose its will on other countries but one that only
wishes to have members freely join this trade
organization. The organization seeks to impose
common safe working conditions for the citizens of its
member countries, a common minimum wage,
common subsidies of markets, and common rules and
regulations of markets. They do seek to eliminate
tariffs between member countries but do not
discourage price floors. The New World Order does not
seek to impose a “World Bank”.

The Templars do believe there is a need for a


centralized banking system but like the government
this bank must be limited and regulated and be
composed of many banks worldwide.

The Templar’s system of banking for America


would include not just the Federal Reserve, but would
of included Statutory Reserves (State Banks) as well.
The Federal bank would only be allowed to loan to
state banks unless the state banks approve loans to
other entities for the Federal Reserve.

State banks regulate private banks and other


lending institutions within their state. No private bank
may operate in more than one state but banks may do
business with banks in other states. This keeps the
concentration of wealth and power distributed. This
way no single bank will hurt the whole economy if it
were to go out of business. Each state bank will set a
79
The Path to Awe
Statutory Reserve Rate and that is what all banks
within the state with a good credit rating may borrow
from the State Reserve. The Federal Reserve will still
set a Federal Reserve rate but no private banks or
lending institutions may borrow from the Federal
Reserve. If a private bank in a state cannot finance a
project because it does not have enough capital then
the State Reserve may finance the project if the State
Legislature approves the financing. If the State reserve
does not have the funds then the project maybe
submitted to the Federal Reserve if all the Statutory
Reserves vote to send the project to the Federal
Reserve. Then, only the US Congress may approve the
Federal Reserve financing a private project.

Homes are financed on a basis that still make


the banks a profit but home loans should not be the
major source of revenue for banks, financing business
should. The government should regulate the profit
acquired from home sales to be minimal in nature so
there is more of an emphasis of starting companies.
The Federal Reserve must stipulate a minimum of
home loans be made in order to borrow based upon
the population of each state.

Now this will sound at first like a socialist


program but it is not. Only good loans need be made
and no loans are based upon creed or color. A person
may be poor but have good credit. If a person is poor
they may have a good credit rating and a person may
be rich and have a good credit rating. Should the poor
person pay more for their house just because they
make less money? Their debt to equity ratio will not be
the same as a rich person because they incur more
debt just covering necessities. To level the playing
field, rules would be put into place so that a poorer
person will pay a lesser rate than that of a richer
person if their credit history is equal. As credit history
get worse then a worse rate ensues. If a poor person
can afford a low rate for their house then the bank

80
The Path to Awe
incurs no more risk than what they do for wealthier
clients. How would this work?

To get the best rate from a private bank you may


only purchase a home on a 10,20, or 30year fixed rate
loans. 10 year loans may be made for a house value
equal to 1 years wage, 20 year loans will be made for
homes up to a value of 2 years wages, and 30 year
loans will be made for homes with a value equal to 3
years wages. The rate minimum private banks may
charge is the state reserve rate plus a minimum of
.025% for the private bank and 1% for every ten years
length on the loan. Then add the percentage of the
purchase price of the house divided by the yearly
minimum wage and then divided by 10 and subtract 1
and express as a percentage. So if minimum wage is
$6.00/hr and you make $40,000 per year and are
purchasing a $120,000 house on a 30 year loan and
the Statutory rate is 3%. Then your rate is 3% plus
.025% for the private bank which ups that to 3.25%
and 3% (1% for every 10 years) for a 30 year loan
which take it up to 6.25% and the $120,000 purchase
price divided by $12,000 yearly minimum wage equals
10 divided by 10 equals 1 and subtract 1 which equal
0 extra percentage. This is for perfect credit history.
Private banks may charge extra for bad credit history
and they may charge a fee higher than a quarter
percent for the loan but that amount must be uniform
over all mortgages.

Banks by their very essence are the


concentration of wealth and a society only benefits
when the wealth is distributed naturally, but since it is
in mans nature to hoard wealth then rules must be put
into place that the concentration of wealth may not
choke the economy or the poor. This rule is not a
redistribution of wealth but rather it is a more fair
valuation of property. Property cannot be limited to
just a few, or to one class, but a price needs to be
placed upon credit. A poor man may only afford a
small house and since the house cost less there is less
81
The Path to Awe
risk to the bank, so a poor man should pay a lower
rate than a rich man paying for a house that is more
costly, but have the same credit rating because the
rich man purchases a house of more value, which
means the bank takes more risk. A bank may make a
large profit by getting a small profit from many small
loans or a large profit from a few large loans. This is to
keep an organization that blurs the line between
private and government, such as the banking system,
so that it treats all men equally because banks
currently know that giving a disproportionally
favorable rates to the wealthy they may grow their
organization quicker than if they give an equitable rate
to all.

As by Templeanic law, money has value because


we give it value and though there may be a
denomination on money we all value money
differently.

Money is like a battery; it stores the value of our


labors. To create a product gives rise to the potential
to create “New” value.

A products potential value is what the public will


pay for the product. So if you create a product and sell
it for more than what it cost to make it then you have
created “New” value or you have created wealth in
another word.

Lets say you service (repair) the product that is


created. You have not created anything. The product
has now cost the original purchaser more money to try
to maintain the value of the product. So even though
the service man made a profit repairing the product
this does not add to the value of the product it
detracts from it (the cost of the service call).

Say you have a furnace you paid $1,000 for. Lets


say your furnace breaks after 7 months and it costs
$200 to have a service man repair it. This did not
magically make the furnace worth $1,200 on the
82
The Path to Awe
contrary it cost $1,000 and it should have been valued
at $800 but the repair maintains the purchased value
of $1,000. This $200 loss is used to maintain value and
is in economic terms “waste”.

Virtually everything deteriorates over time and


there will always be waste but it is vital to a vibrant
economy to minimize waste. This is why there is an
emphasis by consumers on quality. It is only the
creation of new products that keeps service jobs alive.
This follows nature; even a nurse will be out of a job if
no one makes babies.

The lower the quality of products made the more


it costs the consumer to maintain the value of what
they have. This is waste because the consumer is
paying to maintain the value of the product they
already purchased.

So the more an economy moves towards a


service based economy the more the economy will be
harmed because “New” wealth is not being created.
“New” wealth is essential to a vibrant economy.
Wealth maintenance actually inhibits an economy’s
growth. “How?”, you may ask. If there were no furnace
manufacturers then there would eventually be no need
of people to repair the furnaces because there would
be no furnaces. Maintaining value simply moves
wealth around and does not create “New” wealth.

Waste will always happen and the service sector


will always be needed by the manufacturing sector but
the goal of an economy should be to keep the service
sector to a minimal size. Any significant growth of the
service sector should be a signal of a serious problem
within the economy.

Some will argue if you just buy a new furnace


you are maintaining a necessity and thereby
maintaining value. This would be true if there were no
competition in markets. Since competition sheds waste
(inefficiency) and attracts ingenuity and quality the
83
The Path to Awe
next furnace you buy should be more efficient, last
longer, and when adjusted for inflation, cost you the
same or less. So over a lifetime if it were possible to
buy the same furnace over and over again you would
accumulate more waste than a person who purchased
consecutively newer furnaces.
Population ratios are a huge concern in
generating a service based economy because as we
age we all need more and more service.

Just for example, lets look at a human in terms


of equipment. The older a person becomes the less
productive they are. Babies will become productive so
their service is part of the original cost and value of
the product.

Let’s say as you become older you need more


health care. If the old far exceed the more productive
then their “waste” will be built into the economy
through health care, which is a service based
economy. Additionally, when an economy is stressed
by high taxes because of social programs for the
elderly, the more responsible do not have babies
because they cannot afford them. Irresponsible people
do have babies and do not raise them correctly, which
causes the need for more police to prevent theft. Theft
is a waste and the police are service-based jobs and so
they to are waste (needed, yes, but they create no
new wealth). The problem only becomes compounded
when the elderly outnumber the productive. If
population figures start to trend to high towards the
elderly then taxes must be lowered and waste needs
to be purged from the government. If the government
is unwilling to do this then the only viable offset is to
allow a lot of young foreigners to immigrate
responsibly and legally and they cannot be allowed to
be a burden on the productive (such as using social
programs) or the situation will only be inflamed.

84
The Path to Awe
It is so popular of many so called conservatives
to push the idea of a transition of America to a service
based economy, what they do not realize is this would
mean the death of our economy.

We cherish our elderly and would never move


towards genocide to fix our economy to just provide
social programs, this would be the hallmark of
communism. The government should never control
health care, if they do they will need to make decisions
to stay in power and that means retaining enough of
the productive for them to line their pockets with
stolen wealth. If you are elderly and not productive,
then that badly needed heart operation you need
might take ten years to get. “Poof” your gone and they
will bill this as humane and responsible population
control.

Yes, under socialism there will be a portion of the


population that will receive very good health care, but
there will be a good portion whose health care suffers
dramatically.

It is as stated earlier, a reinforcement, which


nothing except for wisdom can be given for free.

You can see from the logical examples of how


“Free Trade” hurts our economy and how moving
towards a “Service Based” economy is a bad idea. You
can also see how true conservatism ensures fairness
for the “Workers” and how some capitalist will
consider true Conservatism (Equilibric in nature) a
socialist ideal. You may also see how a Socialist hates
the idea of Equilibric Conservatism just as much if not
more than Capitalistic Conservatism.

That’s OK, It wouldn’t be right if everyone loved


the Templars, this is the natural ying and yang we
need, but there is enough of both that fair minded
people may embrace the concept from both sides.

85
The Path to Awe
Immigration is a huge issue to an economy. If
you were to have open borders then you would
introduce chaos into a regulated government. For
example “How would you know who has paid taxes
and who hasn’t” and if you don’t know who your
citizens are how do you know whom to protect? Any
person could go overseas and if an unfriendly
government jailed them unjustly all they have to say is
“I’m an American” even though they might have never
been to our country. Would it not be the duty of our
military to free that individual under open borders?
Hell no! They have not paid for that freedom by paying
taxes to supplement our defense. If you did let anyone
be an American then our military would be stretched
so thin protecting individuals that have not paid to be
protected.

Templars believe in the brotherhood of man and


if you seek sanctuary in the US then they would grant
it to you but you better be productive while you are
here. In Templar colonies you may immigrate to a
colony but you had to be productive by making a
payment in taxes before you could become a citizen.
As an immigrant you may not be paid what a domestic
worker makes for a period of 5 years and you may be
required to work directly for the Templars for 5 years
to create infrastructure for the colony. If you pay
directly to become a citizen then that amount would
be equal to 5 years of the minimum wage of a
domestic worker.

Ccontemporary Templars would set an


immigration policy in perfect times of:

Anyone that wants to come to this country can.


We do not care about you history but you will abide by
our laws or you will be banished. The cost to enter our
country ($6.00/hr min wage times a 2000hr year,
times 5 years) is $60,000. If you do not have enough
to become a citizen then you may become a “Pre-
citizen”. A “Pre-citizen” is allowed into the country and
86
The Path to Awe
they will have to labor on government projects for ½ of
minimum wage for 10,000 hours and the government
will provide food and shelter or if the government does
not have enough projects then it will simply tax the
“Pre-Citizens” income over the next 5 years at a rate
of 40%. All will be allowed to enter the United States
and any “Pre-citizen” may leave at any time to visit
their homeland and retain their hours towards their
citizenship. When less immigration is preferred these
amounts may be raised and when more immigration is
encouraged then the amounts may be decreased.
There will no longer be any quotas limiting
immigration of foreign nationals. All immigrants must
speak the common language of English and swear an
oath to protect and defend America and her Flag.
Another way to become a citizen would be to join the
military and after a 3 year stint, as long as you pass
the citizenship test you are then considered a citizen.

Freedom is not free and it should be cherished


and worked for, and this way immigration will be
successfully integrated into the plan of prosperity for
all citizens. This is a concerted effort to dampen the
effect of undesirable population age ratios and to
prevent our economy from becoming a service
economy.

A service economy is dependent upon a


manufacturing economy and if we have no
manufacturing here because of unfair trade practices
then we will become dependent upon other nations as
described earlier.

When we are dependent upon foreign economies


then we can be controlled and manipulated. It should
be the intention of a free trade agreement that an
American business locating overseas is for the
purposes of competing in the foreign countries
domestic market, not, so that company can export
from a foreign market back into the U.S. to compete

87
The Path to Awe
against other U.S. companies. This again is a signal of
something being wrong with an economy.

This scenario allows the government to prosper


disproportionately to its citizens by the corporate
income tax place upon the parent company with a
satellite operating overseas and from the sales taxes
generated by the sales of those over-seas products
sold within the U.S.. The people of the U.S. however
suffer immensely as they loose their livelihoods and
the government grows increasingly powerful.

Socialism again rears its ugly head by making


more people needy and susceptible to government-
sponsored programs. Once dependent upon socialized
programs those that reward unproductiveness can
easily gain your vote in order to retain power by
disrupting the flow of social programs that you utilize.
You will become so satisfied with the scraps that you
will forget about the meal.

You can see how easily people can be


manipulated when you control the flow of wealth to
them.

This is manipulation on a mass scale. By twisting


facts, and manipulation through manifestation of the
populous, the government may direct the people to
their will.

Again, we go back to a Templar principle that the


human mind is a product of its environment. To
bombard the unlearned mind with a falsehood long
enough, no matter how illogical, the mind will give in
and accept the falsehood as truth and fact.

Muslim Imams used their inner circle to create a


secret society to spread falsehoods that they wanted
the masses to accept as truths and as facts. These
falsehoods used emotion to cloud reasoning and
judgment, to confuse logic and dissuade your own
intelligence in making decisions.
88
The Path to Awe
This starts by keeping truth and wisdom out of
the hands of the masses and by wrecking families. By
wrecking families (through taxation and class warfare)
the children become a product of their environment.
The government then exerts control over a large
portion of a child’s environment in the form of public
schools.

Is it any wonder why schools are a socialist


program and why so many teachers espouse a
socialistic agenda? The children absorb the agenda
and each consecutive generation becomes more and
more comfortable with socialism.

America spends far more money educating their


children only to see their grades fall in comparison to
other countries spending much less.

This is not a vast conspiracy; this is what


happens when the seeds of socialism are introduced at
a time of weakness among the populous such as in the
cases of FDR during WWI and LBJ after the death of
JFK. Unwittingly or knowingly they laid the seeds that
undermine our very freedoms and liberties.

As each generation becomes more socialized the


more socialism sounds reasonable and the more
socialism each consecutive generation will willingly
accept. The inner circle of the Imams are now in the
present day form of the media further enveloping the
weak and addle minded and endowing falsehoods unto
our young as truths.

Even those with some wisdom can have their will


bent and their perspective changed by propagators of
hate and jealously.

Hate and Jealously are the two easiest emotions


to use to cloud the mind from clear and rational
judgment. If you can be made to hate you can be
controlled, if your wealth is controlled then you can be

89
The Path to Awe
controlled, if you can be kept from wisdom you can be
controlled.

The proponents of Socialism will always use the


devices of emotion to circumvent wise decision-
making and impose their will.
You will hear such phrases as “It doesn’t matter
the cost, we must do this for the children” or “We need
to do this to help the underserved and needy” or “I’m
tired of those rich bastards getting all of the fruits of
my labors” and of course the favorite “ If you don’t like
this you must be a racist”.

When you remove yourself from this sea of


turmoil and emotion you can clearly see the
intentioned effect. We can see how hatred has been
used to manipulate the nation of Islam and the Middle
East because we are far removed from it.

Most of the Middle Eastern population is


purposefully kept from wisdom so they can be more
easily controlled. Hatred is fomented from birth
against the Jew and the American Infidel and this
religious discourse allows even more control to be
exerted over its people.

Recognize that their religion is mixed with their


laws and does not respect the concept of free will and
you literally have the recipe for an entire people willing
to sacrifice themselves to keep themselves from
prosperity.

It is this manipulation of men’s minds by the


control of their environment that was written about in
ancient text by the prophet Mohammed and translated
by the Templars.

Mohammed believed in the path to Awe but he


believed he could reach it through force and
subjugation of all people under the tyranny of the
Nation of Islam. He believed he could bring about the

90
The Path to Awe
prosperity of man through unnatural means of control
and not by freedom. This is why Islam is a forced
conversion religion. It is an attempt to control your
thought so the path to Awe could be reached more
quickly.
It is easy to see how radically controlled most
middle easterners are because we are removed from
their environment.

To realize if you are controlled you have to


remove emotion from your judgment.

Look at the UAW (United Auto Workers) Union to


see how control works.

Hate is fomented against the company using


greed and jealously (this is not to say that the UAW
does not have any valid arguments but rather to say
this is standard operating procedure for elections and
negotiations.) So union leaders may exert control over
you so you will vote the way they want you to.

Do you disbelieve this? Explain that cheap fuel is


essential to selling cars and yet the UAW stands in
lockstep with the party that is diametrically opposed to
drilling for oil. They support the party that will tax the
profits of their company the most causing their
product to cost more than their competitor.

The party they support has caused their


membership to drop to record low levels. Truly hatred
has blinded their members to their own predicament.
UAW members are so willing to sacrifice themselves to
tow the party line that they show themselves to be on
the mentality level of a suicide bomber that will
willingly sacrifice themselves for their cause.

The African American has suffered because of


their hatred of the white man.

This entire section of the population can be


made to hate and they can be the most easily
91
The Path to Awe
controlled. Look at the state of the black family, look
at the state of predominately black schools, and look
at the condition of the average black man.

Blacks use disproportionately more social


programs than any other race in America and just see
the results of all of these special programs that are
supposedly funded in the name of diversity. It is not
diversity that is promoted, it is division. Just look what
division and hatred have accomplished, visit any large
urban inner city to see the new self-oppressed people.

What party are the Black leaders associated


with? Millions of white men died, brother killed brother,
to free the black man just to see him become a willing
slave of socialism.

The only way to free the black man is to free him


through education and the realization his hatred is
irrational. Change his reality by the realization of
falsehoods through the use of logic and reason.

It is hatred that has imprisoned the black man


and it was written in the bible that hatred shall be your
own undoing.

Notice the effects on the inner city. This is what


socialism has in store for us all.

Those groups that do not take responsibility for


their condition and that seek to blame others for their
condition always fail to prosper by misplacing blame.
By fomenting hatred you divide yourself from the
collective, a Templeanic principle is “Man may prosper
more working together than he may apart.”.

Just what is the big attraction of socialism?

Socialism works best upon blind (irrational)


jealously and or hatred and its pretense is to grant you
security by righting a so-called injustice that has been
done to you. Socialism claims to make fair what is
clearly unfair. Socialism seeks to confer rights of
92
The Path to Awe
security unto you, which are impossible to provide in
the long run without taking your liberty, prosperity,
and happiness. The most obvious security rights they
claim to offer to seize power are always the same

1) The right to a job


2) The right to health care
3) The right to retirement
4) The right to education
5) The right to shelter
6) The right to food

Life is not fair and it is not in mans domain to


provide a measure of fairness unto everyone through
security. Fatally flawed is the ideology of these rights
of security. You simply cannot impose rights that you
do not have the resources to provide or maintain. This
would be as if you were a poor man and simply
uttered, “I am rich” and have it be so. The poor man
must face some adversity to gain wealth. Socialism is
irrational because it is a theory based upon a flawed
premise.

The right that socialism seeks to confer upon its


citizens may not just be imposed upon a society by the
will of the government but rather these securities can
only be earned through prosperity, so these are not
rights they are in fact goals. These goals can only be
met as a result of an Equilibricly (naturally) derived
prosperity.

Keep in mind that Equilibrism fosters no


dependency. What? The author stated there is a
maximum wage and compulsory donation above this
wage, so you are making the poor a welfare state
aren’t you?

No! This compulsory donation is to keep the rich


from becoming dependent upon the poor. What?

As easily as it is for the poor to become


dependent upon the rich it is also possible for the rich
93
The Path to Awe
to become quite dependent upon the poor. The rich
can become so dependent upon the poor that they
could no longer function in society without the help of
the poor. To prove this point, that it is possible, you
merely have to look at the super wealthy, and in
particular, those that inherited immense wealth. Some
of these people do not know how to drive a car
because it has always been done for them. Some do
not know how to cook, clean, or even shop for
themselves.

Producing a society that produces dependency


even if the dependency is reversed is not good for
society. So by reducing wealth and by not making it
easy to gain (even for those that already have wealth)
you reduce the possible dependency upon the poor,
hence, the compulsory giving. This also reinforces the
brotherhood of man by keeping the poor from
becoming a faceless entity and does not empower the
government.

The creation of wealth is the means by which we


travel down the path to Awe. Wealth is the incentive to
create. Wealth is the storage of the value of your
labors and your ingenuity. The only thing that is bad
about wealth is that it can create greed. Greed is an
unnatural product of man, which is only present within
the nature of man but not within the rest of nature.

Prosperity can only be reached by natural means


so greed (being unnatural) must be minimized or
eliminated. Equilibrism ties the very rich to the very
poor because it is not the governments right to
insulate the rich from the poor as this hurts both the
poor and the rich.

It is very important that the rich do not become


apathetic of the plight of the poor. Insulation of a
government bureaucracy causes apathy. Apathy and
disdain for the poor breeds hatred of the rich by the
poor. Hatred causes waste, which leads to socialism.

94
The Path to Awe
You can see how the maximum wage and
compulsory giving are an articulation linked to prevent
dependency and foster brotherhood but there is
another benefit.

By privatizing welfare in America, religions will


become powerful once again because they are the
largest and most recognized charities. They will be
able to reach more people and increase their flock.
The Templars see the degradation of the American
morals coming to a halt because the churches may
now instill within many men the power of faith and
hope from whatever persuasion it is derived. High
taxes and ill conceived social programs have spirited
away a once most redeeming quality that was present
in all Americans and that was the strength of their
spirit.

95
The Path to Awe

Chapter 7
A New World Order

All governments will have differences depending


upon a people’s will, morals, values, ethics and
religions. It is the hope of the Templars that all
governments will be able to unite in what is common
among men and these relationships should help send
all men down the path to Awe.

Just what is the path to Awe? We don’t really


know. Christ describes the path to Awe as when all
men will work together in a common cause by putting
aside race, creed, religion, and kingdom to create a
magnificent splendor for all to behold and share in the
accomplishment of man. The prophet Mohammed
writes about the Awe as a time of Utopia for all men
that they shall gain wisdom to create such a construct
to reveal the nature of Allah. John the Baptist wrote of
the same such construct and that by its creation will
signal the ascension of man unto a paradise upon
earth and that man shall stand in Awe of the presence
of God.

At any rate we do know that man will eventually


be at peace with one another in order to reach the end
of the path of Awe. Templars believe man cannot reach
the end of the path by artificial means and it is only
through natural revelation of mans own discovery that
shall bring this about. Islam on the other hand believes
that men can be forced to work together and that
peace may be gained at the end of a whip. Trying to
accomplish the same goal by two different means.
Islam strives towards world domination through forced
conversion and the Templars wish to not dominate but
96
The Path to Awe
unite separate and individually unique countries
through what all men have in common.

The Templars believe that in order to realize the


Awe that governments be efficient representatives of
their people. Why is this? Man is most at peace when
he is prosperous so if all men can realize prosperity
then all men will be at peace with one another.

The Templars have long believed that the


construct is an energy source that would be highly
powerful, that everyone may easily obtain, cannot be
depleted, and uses no natural resources and nor will it
produce any detrimental by-products. They believe
that this power source is the only thing that will bring
all men together. If everyone had free energy then you
would never have to worry about the means by which
everything would run. Think of how that would change
the world. You would not have to worry about how to
heat or cool your house or worry about putting gas in
your car. Industry has a stable permanent unlimited
supply of free power. From a lesser known prophet
named Imophtet he wrote of the construct being
devised after biting into the fruit from the tree of
knowledge that would let man know the very fabric of
God’s realm and bring forth God unto earth by mans
ultimate realization of him.

Some Templars do believe that the Tree of


knowledge is the Internet and they believe that at
some point in the near future that all of the world’s
computer will be linked together somehow to run a
program that will evolve some type of intelligence that
will reveal an easy way to create unlimited power.
These Templars believe it will be the broad use of this
power is what will signal the Messiahs return to earth.

Until this happens man needs to learn how to


work together. Remember that Templars believe that
God creates all men equal and so we believe that
government must treat all men equal.

97
The Path to Awe
So a templar law of government organization is:
No representative of the people may be imbued
or conferred special rights or privileges and
mans law must apply to all citizens equally.

It is only in this manner that representatives


become representative of the people and not over the
people. All representatives are expected to live in a
manner equal to the condition of the people they
represent, for if a representative lives to far above the
station of the common man they can no longer relate
to their condition.

What would this mean in today’s society.


Washington DC would be eliminated as far as it
pertains to Congress. Congressmen would be required
to spend time in their own district. When you look at
today’s technology, is there really any reason they
have to be in Washington? The congressmen can send
bills at light speed for review and voting can transpire
over the Internet as well as video conferencing. The
speaker of the house can still control entire sessions of
congress, but no one actually has to be in the same
room. Can anyone say “savings in the billions”. This
also would help to eliminate special interests influence
on politiciansas lobbyist would have to have offices in
all 50 states, rather than just in Washington. The
capital building will become a ceremonial meeting
place for special votes.

This saves transportation cost of the


congressmen, this saves our elected officials from
having to maintain two offices (one in their district and
one in Washington), and this saves the taxpayer by
helping to eliminate the corruption of Congress by
lobbyist. The largest reason to decentralize the
government is safety. If a bomb or a plane hit the
capital building America instantly stops functioning
and Marshall law has to be imposed by the President.
By spreading the candidates out and putting them
back into their states we eliminate this scenario.
98
The Path to Awe
Safer, cheaper, and more efficient, so why hasn’t
this already been done? This is just like our education
system; it is socialized so it protects inefficiency. Our
government has become so corrupt by politicians
wanting to seize wealth by disingenuous means that
they will sacrifice our prosperity at the expense of
their personal wealth because there are no rewards
nor goals set by the people for their representatives.

Our government is actually socialized. Our


congressmen make the same amount of money if they
do a bad job as well as if they do a good job. Yes, they
can be voted out of office for doing a bad job but this
only adds to the potential for corruption in our
representatives by their willingness to hold onto power
through ulterior motives and means.

The people must set the goals of Congress, not


Congress. The people must give the Congress a ladder
to climb so they are rewarded for prophetical
achievement. Take the socialism out of congress and
we eliminate ingrained inefficiency and reduce
corruption of our officials.

The decentralization and de-socialization of the


government will allow the people to be heard better
and therefore be a much more efficient
representations of the people.

What should the goals of Congress be? We


already have quite a few on the books but they seem
to get tossed a side because of the corruption and
socialization of Congress.

1) Protection of the United States


2) The pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness for
every American
3) Enforcement of the Bill of Rights
4) The defense of the Constitution and the
principles for which it stands

99
The Path to Awe
As was stated earlier that the rights conferred by
socialism are goals of any aspiring ideology so our
politicians should have the goals of:

The prosperity of the United States is recognized


as the ability of its people to provide for themselves:

1) Jobs
2) Food
3) Clean Water
4) Clean Air
5) Heated and Cooled Shelter
6) Clothing
7) Transportation
8) Health Care
9) Energy
10)Communication
It is incumbent upon the United States Congress
to provide the environment for which these minimal
necessities are easily obtainable by all citizens without
the imposition of social law or social program. The
federal government with federal income tax funds that
may not exceed 33% of the revenue collected may
subsidize education. States may regulate educational
intuitions but may not fund any educational initiatives
with tax money or any imposition levied upon the
public.

By actually stating the goals of Congress and


limiting their taxing ability, Congress will become more
focused and efficient. With well over 500 national
representatives of the people and an incalculable
number of topics, we need to help to help them
concentrate; otherwise we may diagnose them with
ADHD.
Just like sunlight to a magnifying glass we
release our true power when we are focused. This
dispersion of congress will more closely resemble a
complex organism. The House of Representatives
would be the nerve endings, the Senate would be the

100
The Path to Awe
spinal cord, and the office of the President would be
the brain.

Let’s put our politicians to work. The Templars


would suggest that the people specify their work
schedule and not the Congress (after all, aren’t the
people supposed to be the boss). We would suggest
four ten hour days that they be in session each week
Monday through Thursday and that they have 4 weeks
off per year. One week from Christmas to New Years,
one week on the week of the fourth of July, one week
on the week of Easter, and the last week would fall on
the week of Halloween.

All politicians will vote on every bill ye or nay


and there will be no “present” votes (politicians may
issue position papers on the reason why they voted
the way they did). In the event a politician is not
available to vote then he or she may have a proxy
vote in their place. No bill may be passed without all
congressional representatives voting.

Additionally, the president must be allowed to


bring any bill before congress within 24 hours and
have the congress vote upon the bill within 48 hours.
The senate and the house must be able to debate on
presidential bills before congress in private as long as
their vote is made public. It is only in this manner that
the President may steer the government efficiently
towards his or her goals.

All candidates for political office would have to


be vetted through a hierarchical process. This means
just like a normal job that you must work your way to
the top, a Presidential candidate would have of had to
of been a city councilman first, then a mayor, then a
county councilmen, then a state representative, then a
federal House Representative, then a Senator, then a
Governor and then he could run for President.

By making a candidate climb a ladder of success


you are assured of a much better candidate for
101
The Path to Awe
president and you limit the field by having
requirements on each consecutively higher job
position. A candidate will be vetted several times on
his rise to prominence. This also helps to take the
money factor out of the political race, as you have to
be able to do more than just raise money to enter a
political race.

The Government would be set up from the


bottom up instead of from the top down in the Templar
fashion. Sales and income taxes would be collected
locally 25% would be taken out for the city and then it
would be passed to the county and they would take
25% out and pass it to the State and they would take
25% out and pass it to the Federal government which
would receive the remaining 25%. The federal and the
state governments are mandated to use all Income tax
for defense and education and Sales tax to regulate
markets. The City and County governments may use
their income tax and sales tax revenues on
infrastructure and education. This spreads out the
power that is now concentrated and because the
power is diluted a more equitable and just system will
exist for the use of taxes. This distribution forces
governments to work together to accomplish goals
since now State and Local will have to deal directly
with each other to accomplish their goals and initially
poor states will rely heavily upon rich states until they
more closely mirror their practices and become
successful.

A New World Order always has a free


people, limited and equal taxation, equal rights
for all, decentralized governments, rewards
based pay for their representatives, the goal of
its people to provide for themselves, and a tax
up collection and distribution.

It is thought that with these hallmarks present


that any government may become prosperous. Again,
it must be emphatically noted that the New World
102
The Path to Awe
Order does not erase any countries boundaries, make
any international currency, or force any trade
regulations upon any countries. The New World Order
is far from being a dictatorial philosophy such as is
reserved for the One World Order.
You are undoubtedly thinking with such a change
in the governments spending strategy how would it
stay a float? The transition to such a form of an
equilibric economy governed by a Templeanic
conservative government would be like all thing
equilibric, a slow process. Actually, all governments
will eventually take the form of such a conservative
government because ultimately this is a form of
government that all governments will evolve into. As in
nature it is only the most efficient design that
succeeds.

A conservative government free from the


bureaucracy of socialism will be able to provide more
for its people by taking less. This is efficiency in raw
form, doing more with less. With moral topics such as
abortion, stem cells, pornography, prostitution,
gambling, alcohol, polygamy, and gay unions
relegated to local governments the federal
government becomes so much more efficient.

Why won’t the New World Order cause as much


bloodshed as any previous ideology that has come
before it? To explain this you need to look at religion
because more blood has been shed in the name of
religion than for any other reason.

Look at both major monotheistic religions, Islam


and Christianity. Christianity has a man of peace
central as their deity in Jesus Christ; Muslims have a
warlord being central as their deity in Mohammed.
Both of these deity’s are at either ends of the
spectrum of religious beliefs.

Look at how man has twisted each belief down


through the ages in order to control the masses and
103
The Path to Awe
gain power all in the name of their God. Look at the
killing over the centuries and both Christians and
Muslims are equally guilty of mass genocide.

Though their deity’s are at either end of the


spectrum all of the followers wound up being just as
inhuman as the other. The fact is both religions have
good and bad aspects.

The removal of religious issues from the topic of


the higher government means that all people may
keep their individuality without having to be forced to
conform to a law that may be religious in nature.

This is the Heresy that the original Templars


were tried for. They began to shun the parts of the
bible that would not allow them to live in peace. They
began to question the role of man on earth and the
meaning of life. This facilitated the study of nature and
its application to mans condition. The more that nature
is studied the more the nature of God is revealed. So it
is easy to rationalize that by applying natural
principles to laws that you are in effect doing God’s
work.

Anytime any man discovers a way to become


more efficient or innovative then that man does his
part in elevating mans condition and helps all men
take another step down the path to Awe.

By setting the goal to retard all Nations


inefficiencies we are in effect embracing the
Brotherhood of Man as government should not be a
hindrance to man but it should be a dynamic vehicle
to aid in mans progression to elevate himself.

104
The Path to Awe

chapter 8

Usury, Credit, Currency, Stocks,


Bonds, and Insurance

Looking back at a previous chapter you read


about how the Federal Reserve would change with the
addition of Statutory Reserves. The Federal Reserve is
a private bank and was made so politicians could not
influence the banking process and keep them from the
ultimate use of greed and corruption.

The Templars believed in a fourth and fifth branch


of government. The legislative, the judicial, the
executive, and the economic and peoples branches of
government. These 5 branches of government form a
pyramid with the legislative, the judicial, the
economic, and the people’s branches being the base
and the presidential branch being the peak.

In a nutshell, the peoples branch would be


represented by a gubernatorial senate, which would
review Supreme Court rulings and examine the rulings
for the creation of new law. This gubernatorial senate
would decide if a Supreme Court decision created law
and then could decide to send the ruling to the
legislative branch to either confirm the ruling and
adopt it into law or to vacate the ruling to effectively
over rule the judicial branch. The gubernatorial senate
would be confined only to decisions of the Supreme
Court that create new law. This is a check upon the
unbridled power of the judiciary that is missing within
the United States Government.

105
The Path to Awe
The economic branch concerns itself with
regulation of the financial markets, banks, monopolies,
and currency. The Federal Reserve would run the
Economic branch. The Federal Reserve would be run
by a quorum of 5 individuals. These individuals would
be appointed by the Gubernatorial senate to lifetime
terms but could be removed by the people by a vote of
apprehension or could be removed by presidential
decree or can be removed by unanimous vote by the
gubernatorial senate.

Statutory Reserves would be ran by the state and


any rules that the Federal Reserve does not implement
are open for the State Reserves to regulate. State
reserve officials are also a quorum of 5 officials that
are appointed by the State Congress to a lifetime
position and may only be removed by a vote of
apprehension of the people, by order of the governor,
and by a unanimous vote of the State Congress.

The Federal Reserve has the exclusive power to


authorize the printing and coinage of currency and the
ability to purchase assets to back the value of the
currency. The Federal Reserve may sell Treasury Bonds
to raise capital to loan to State Reserves. The Federals
Reserve may purchase commodities such as precious
metals, gems, oil, and any other assets that may be
manipulated to the benefit of the United States citizen
and their security. Assets may be purchased and sold
for a profit to expand the revenues of the government
and to expand the wealth and liquidity of markets.

Treasury bond issuance would be limited in sales


to foreign investment to an amount equal to domestic
investment. This forces the purchase of assets and
manipulation of markets to benefit the United States.
For example The United States government could
become the worlds largest purchaser of crude oil
giving our government the ability to manipulate this
market to our advantage. The profit from the sale of
this crude to American refineries would add value to
106
The Path to Awe
our currency. The same could be said for gold,
diamonds, and even commodities such as copper,
aluminum, and stainless steel. The Federal Reserve
will also have the power to purchase and sell land and
realize a profit by improvement of those lands. Labor
for such improvements of the land may only be
derived by federal and state penal systems.

The Federal Reserve as stated earlier would be


limited to loaning currency to State Reserves unless
State Reserves vote to allow the Federal Reserve to
loan money directly to a private entity.

State reserves may only loan money to private


banks within their respective states. All banks must
loan cash received from the State Reserves to citizens
or businesses for the purposes of creation of new
wealth and maintaining current value and not for
investment. Investment is the domain of the people
and not of the bank’s distribution system of wealth.

Only banks may sell stocks and bonds and no


other type of financial instruments may exist, futures
trading will be banned, commodities trading may be
traded with little to no regulation because it is a
physical asset. The government may not tax income
until it is actually received by the individual so income
directly deposited into a bank is not taxed. This
income may then be used to purchase stocks and
bonds within the bank. Earning from sources other
than income are non-taxable profits from investments
and would be placedinto a nontaxable account. So
every citizen may invest tax-free and may decide how
much tax to pay by the amount of their earnings they
receive. Banks must pay interest on all deposits and
must charge interest on all loans.

Banks may loan money to other banks within the


state and may loan money to other banks outside of
the state with State Reserve approval.

107
The Path to Awe
So under the auspices of the Federal Reserve the
many US stock and bond exchanges would come
under government control. The Federal Reserve would
maintain the Stock and Bond exchanges and the State
Reserves would be the trading floors and the private
banks would be the private customers. Essentially, all
banks would be a form of an investment bank by the
will of the people and no artificial wealth could be
created from greed or corruption of a system that
would not actually create real wealth. Banks would
control all wealth not in the hands of businesses and
its citizens.

Your investment counselor would be working at


your local bank. Citizens may be free to withdraw
funds from their bank but must pay income tax if
withdrawn from their earned income account to invest
in another bank.

Credit Card companies and other lending


intuitions charging usury will be eliminated.

Usury has a good contemporary term: an


exorbitant rate of interest for borrowing money. By
charging a high rate of interest banks and credit
lending institutions concentrate illegitimate wealth
because this is not earned wealth. No new wealth is
derived from high lending rates. This inefficiency cost
society and inflates the cost of living causing inflation
for no usable benefits. This is a hindrance on
prosperity so The Federal Reserve will regulate the
maximum lending rate of interest to minimize
inefficiency. Banks are a necessary boon to the
economy but they must not be allowed to concentrate
illegitimate wealth and unfair lending practices may
divide a people using inequitable lending strategies.

Most of the lending practices that banks


presently use are still based upon practices used
hundreds of years ago and have not evolved since

108
The Path to Awe
then. This is not necessarily due to the banks but is
the fault of politicians and governments.

The basis of the foundation of lending is being


able to repay the amount borrowed within a specified
time frame. In a Templar society the amount you
borrow is taken from your wage and is not disbursed
directly to you. No matter where you decide to work or
which bank you use your credit profile follows you from
job to job and bank to bank so you can never escape
your debts. This lowers the cost of lending by
guarantying repayment to lending institutions. The
rate at which the repayment of a loan may be changed
if a person’s income is reduced may be put in stasis if
no income is present, and repayment rates will be
regulated by the states for persons whose income has
changed. Only the states may determine any
forgiveness of debt incurred without the wherewithal
to repay.

Equilibrism looks at interest as both a necessity


and as a hindrance. High interest rates are intangible
and low interest rates are tangible. Paying high
interest rates is akin to paying for nothing because it is
an amount above the benefit of the item being
purchased and a lower interest rate more closely
mirrors the value of the product you are purchasing.
Interest does not add value to a product. So interest
should neither cost too much or be paid out at too high
of a rate. True wealth should be created in the markets
through creation of new products or intellectual
property and since creation requires a beginning
amount of wealth the necessity of loans and savings is
needed so interest must be paid and received in order
to keep the flow of capital moving and justly
distributed.

The contemporary banking system is prevented


by regulation from allowing the free flow of capital by
arcane rules and regulationsthat benefit the greedy
because of a somewhat corrupt banking system. The
109
The Path to Awe
banking system has devised so many ways to sap
wealth from its customers that few people save money
in banks anymore because of unethical practices. All
fees and fines will be regulated by the Federal Reserve
to maintain ethical business standards of all banks.
Templar and Equilibric principles dictate that
sudden and drastic change or too much security (too
little change) are a detriment to society as the former
introduces chaos to a well ordered system and the
latter introduces stagnation and lethargy. Businesses
and people must be allowed to fail and must not be
hindered in their attempts to succeed.

Man is unnatural and yet he exists in an


environment of nature. Nature adapts more quickly to
change than what man does because man is more
complex. Nature is in a constant and a rapid state of
flux so; man deals with nature by artificially reducing
the change imposed upon him by means of the
products he creates.

The financial means by which man seeks to


reduce change by nature is through restoration and
the instrument of insurance.

In the Templeanic society, insurance is strictly


regulated, as is the domain of the banking system.
Health care and health insurance are exclusionary
from liability and property insurance and will be
addressed later on in this chapter.

To have an efficient insurance system for all


citizens plaintiff awards must be regulated and be fair
and equitable for all.

A provision of Templeanic law is that punitive


damages are paid to the courts and not to the plaintiff.
The intent of punitive damages are to punish and not
to reward citizens. It is also a provision that punitive
damages may not exceed 1/3 of compensatory
damages awarded.
110
The Path to Awe
Compensatory damages are only restorative in
nature. The amount fined will never exceed the cost to
rectify the change in condition. Compensation for a
change in condition causing a disability would be equal
among all citizens for future benefits, for it is not for
the courts to foretell a persons future. A person may or
may not of been a success or a failure after a life
changing disability or even if the disability had never
happened.

Templars believe that god created all men equal


and it is not up to the government to recognize its
citizens any differently.

If you are only temporarily disabled then


compensation for lost wages would equal your normal
pay for that time period. If you are determined to be
permanently disabled the court will make a ruling on
your percentage of disability based upon your ability
to perform work. Regardless of your previous wage,
compensation will be based upon a living wage if you
are single, and a family wage if you are married, and
compensation will assume a 100-year life span.

Legal fees to be considered for award to the


plaintiff may not exceed 1/3 of compensatory
damages sought or awarded and it is dependent up
the plaintiff winning their case.

Punitive damages awarded to the court funds


the States Board of Civil Barristers. Barristers are civil
public prosecutors that work for the people. The
Barristers will prosecute a case for the public free of
charge if the Board of Barristers approves the
plaintiff’s case. Barristers may prosecute for a fee but
when they do they are acting as a private civil trial
lawyer.

So, if your case warrants it the State Board of


Barristers would allow you to sue for damages with no
money out of your pocket using them as legal counsel.
Barristers are always awarded the maximum amount
111
The Path to Awe
for legal fees if they win their case, and the states may
decide to reward their Barristers a portion of these
legal fees for payment of services.

With these checks and balances for the


prosecution and defense of civil litigation the
insurance system will operate much more efficiently
than what it does today as this makes Judges operate
within a certain set of guidelines so as to not cause
artificially high prices upon products due to jackpot
justice awards by misguided judges.

How will the insurance system work? Anything


you want to insure you will visit your local bank and
decide upon rates of coverage. The private bank will
send the request to the State Reserve and if it is a
very large policy it will be sent to the Federal Reserve.
The reserve will send the private bank the premium
they require and the bank will add their fee to the
premium. All insurance premiums will be discounted
based upon savings retained within the bank. So if you
have a large enough amount deposited your insurance
premium may be $0.

This is another way there is a repository of funds


kept on hand for security and to fuel the progress of
industry. Instead of having separate government,
insurance, and bank reserves the Templar system
combines them all into one to minimize waste in the
financial system and to make the most efficient use of
money.

Health insurance and health care are totally


different than other types of insurance as the quality
of a human beings life helps determine the efficiency
of which they operate within a society. It is a benefit to
society to keep every citizen as healthy as possible.
Since it is only possible to spread wisdom to the
masses for free with no harm being done to society, a
system may be derived from education to help
supplement private health care without being a

112
The Path to Awe
detriment to society. This system of health care
would be termed National Competitive Health
Care NCHC.

The system would work by the National


education system educating all doctors, nurses,
therapist, and surgeons for free, in return for this
education students agree to work 6400 hours free of
charge over an eight year period for the NCHC or
repay four times the national minimum hourly wage
times the number of remaining hours to be fulfilled.

Doctors may fulfill the required service to the


NCHC in the privacy of their own practice or at a
participating hospital or clinic. This would be an
average of two 8-hour days per week.

When performing NCHC work, doctors and


nurses will enjoy the luxury of not being able to be
sued for malpractice. All NCHC service performed will
be of public record. So if you break your arm and use
the NCHC your health care records are public domain.
If you want to be treated for something such as a
sexually transmitted disease and want it to remain
private then you cannot use the NCHC and will have to
seek private health care. You may still purchase
private health insurance for visiting a private
physician.

Citizens pay a nominal fee for using the NCHC


services. Citizens pay 4 times the minimum hourly
wage per doctor visit. For all other medical services
not requiring a doctor you pay 3 times the minimum
hourly wage per hour. Surgery is on a per hour basis
and hospital stays are 10 times the minimum hourly
wage per 24hour period. Prescriptions drugs are
broken down into necessary and unnecessary drugs. A
necessary drug would be a pain reliever like vicadin
and an unnecessary drug like Viagra for E.D.
Necessary drugs would cost 4 times minimum wage

113
The Path to Awe
per prescription and unnecessary drugs would cost 10
times minimum wage.

The NCHC is funded by the free labor of doctors


and nurses in exchange for education, fees are
charged by the NCHC for the services performed, a
portion of the 10% sales tax collected on over the
counter drugs, and a portion of the 10% sales tax on
placed upon private medical services will fund the
NCHC.

Doctors can practice where they want to, private


insurance and private doctors are not affected, the
NCHC is limited by charging fees and the public nature
of health information. Doctors may buy out hours or
their whole contract as they become successful and
the NCHC uses this money to pay physicians to work
for them. Doctors may reduce their personal income
tax by working for the NCHC and every hour they
perform for NCHC they may reduce their taxes by an
amount equal to two hours of their regularly charged
rate.

Doctors and Nurses do not have to enroll in this


program but another added benefit of enrolling in the
NCHC and getting your education through the national
academy is that you are able to practice in all 50
states with one national license rather than limiting
yourself to just one state.

Accidents do happen in medicine and doctors


are not perfect and so if you become disabled by an
accident you will be compensated under the National
Insurance system and the doctor will earn a demerit.
Once a doctor has four demerits the Federal Reserve
and the board of the NCHC will review him and they
may determine to suspend a doctor’s license based
upon incompetence or negligence.

On the educational side the number of doctors


and nurses being trained would be limited to their high
school grades and an entrance exam. When more
114
The Path to Awe
medical practitioners are needed then the standards
are lessened for entrance into the academy and when
there is an abundance of doctors and nurses then the
standards are raised. The NCHC board with the
approval of congress may reduce or increase the
number of required hours needed by medical
practitioners to repay their educational debt to make it
more attractive to potential physicians and nurses.

This type of system provides an integrated


solution for banking, investing, tax collection, and
insurance.

A capitalist might look at this as a


nightmare intrusion by the government, but they would
be wrong. By gaining efficiencies through the pooling of
capital for many different resources you expand
exponentially the value of working capital by reducing
the amount of non working capital. You also gain
efficiency through simplification of the markets, and as
such, the markets are truly controlled by the people.
The tax structure will be as such that it encourages
savings, investment, and corruption by politicians will
have been minimized, these institution have very little
risk involved with them. As such, pensions and Social
Security will no longer be necessary, as citizens will
naturally retain enough savings for retirement.
Remember no recurring property tax on your land as
that has been outlawed so your land is your land when
you have paid it off and there are no taxes on capital
gains so profit made from investments over your
lifetime is yours to do with as you please tax-free. A
retiree only has to pay sales tax and is burdened by no
other taxes.

Money, like all things, does not create new


wealth until it is put to work. Banks, by themselves, do
not create new wealth. It is what banks do with the
money that leads to the creation of wealth.

115
The Path to Awe
Gambling does not create new wealth. The
only thing gambling does is to redistribute wealth and
tie up capital so it cannot be used to create new wealth.

This is why Christianity abhors gambling


because it does not allow man to prosper fully when it
exists.

Proper litigation is also a wealth


redistributor, but it is redistribution in the name of
justice and equity. It, like gambling, creates no new
wealth(nor should it). Litigation promotes equity and
safety within a society through justice, but litigation is
merely a tool used to resolve justice and like any tool it
can be used for good or evil.

Frivolous, unwarranted, and un-merited


litigations as well as exorbitant plaintiff awards by well
meaning misguided judges not only tie up and
redistribute capital unjustly, but destroy potential
avenues of new wealth creation.

The hot coffee in the lap story is a good


example of this. A person orders a hot coffee at a drive
thru and spills it in their lap and scalds their skin and
sues the drive thru for having too hot of coffee. The first
case the judge awards $30 million to the plaintiff and it
is appealed and appealed and the award gets chiseled
down to $500,000. The defendant settles because of
legal costs and the plaintiff’s lawyer gets 80% of the
award. The drive thru spent far in excess of $1 million
defending themselves not including the settlement
award for a suit that should of never went to trial.

Insurance companies insuring the liabilities


of drive thru’s that serve coffee then raise their
insurance rates to these companies and stipulate the
maximum temperature the coffee may be. This causes
the product to be less desirable to many consumers
because they prefer their coffee piping hot and it
increases the cost of the coffee, so sales are reduced on
two fronts. You now have a higher upfront cost to get
116
The Path to Awe
into the coffee drive thru business because of the
additional risk to the insurance company. Potential
entrepreneurs are discouraged by the high insurance
rates, lower temperature of the product and lack of
sales due to the final cost of the product.
It is inherit to a prosperous society that
litigation and awards of judgments are limited so
prosperity is not hindered.

Compensatory and punitive damages were


spoken of earlier in this chapter and those limitations
only limit awards that a judge may bestow on a plaintiff.

There also needs to be limits placed upon


the creation of litigation to protect the legal process
from corruption.

Templars would accomplish this limitation by


the imposition upon the plaintiff’s legal counsel that
they must bear the cost of the defendant’s legal
expenses if they loose their case. Legal fees would have
to be reported on a daily basis to the court during a
trial. The maximum amount for legal fees that may be
charged is 100 times the minimum hourly wage per
hour of service of the legal counsel.

Now, most forms of inefficiency in the civil


legal system will have been minimized and inflationary
cost due to unmerited litigation will have been lowered
creating a better value for products sold in all markets.

117
The Path to Awe

Chapter 9

The Masons, The Templars, and


Strangleholds of Prosperity
Before the Templars there were the Masons. This
is the secret society that everyone knows about but
very few are privy to their closely held secrets.

The Masons (or Freemasons if you prefer) were


originally stonecutters and stone-carvers, and such as
a skilled mason is today the stonecutter of long ago
was even more skilled. The Masons were the engineers
and scientist of their day being able to create great
temples, churches, castles, and other great constructs
not equaled to this very day.

The Masons were the very first labor unions and


held considerable influence as both the church and
royalty wanted to display their wealth, grandeur, and
power through the examples of Masonic ingenuity in
the structures they built for them.
118
The Path to Awe
If a king wanted a castle built he had to please
the Masons otherwise; he did not get his castle built.
Masons kept their engineering knowledge to
themselves and so they were in high demand and
could not be enslaved or tortured to make great
creations, for they just simply would refuse to work.
Kings could not kill them because then they would
have no one to build their castles. Masons truly were
the first to gain power through brotherhood and
knowledge.

The Masons were the first unions to protect their


members through solidarity and were not able to be
disbanded and survive to the current day.

These Unions though, very similar in purpose to


today’s unions are very different in how they obtained
their goals. Contemporary American labor unions have
lost their way and their purpose, which has bred
corruption and inefficiencies within these
organizations.

There should never be a monopoly on labor within


a business, as this does not allow for natural
competition. So a person should not be forced to join a
union in order to work a job. The individual should
always be allowed to choose if they want to join or not
join a union at their place of work.

The difference between unions and the Masons


brotherhood was the focus on the job, the commitment
to quality and excellence, and the profitability of the
company was put before the employee. The job always
had to remain competitive so the union had to be as
efficient as possible to keep getting jobs. All were
willing to sacrifice to complete a job as long as they
were treated fairly.

Today’s unions, though not all the same, are


highly inefficient because they focus on the worker
and not the job they perform. This has built
inefficiency into the system and now companies view a
119
The Path to Awe
union as an impediment to prosperity rather than a
means to obtain prosperity. Poor performance should
never be rewarded and would not if unions have to
compete against non-union employees. Unions are
almost a necessity in some cases where the employer
does not want to treat the employees fairly and their
corrupt greed blinds an employer to the fact that a
laborer is entitled to an honest days wage for and
honest days labor.

The Templars used the Masons to build


commanderies and used the formula for what they
paid the farmers is what they paid the Masons. A
person may only profit from the labor of another one-
third the amount that person is paid. This is the
formula used for when you pay a person to create on
your behalf. This limits the amount of wealth you can
receive from being dependent on others to create your
wealth.

In a Templar society you are encouraged to


become a leader and not a follower as a follower is
dependent upon the leader. You may profit limitlessly if
you are a leader. Manufacturing jobs have one person
or few persons depending upon many, and other jobs,
such as a producer of intellectual property (songwriter,
movie actor, or a professional service such as a lawyer
or physician) has the many dependent upon the one.
The physician creates jobs by his attained knowledge,
the same is true of the lawyer, a plumber, an
electrician,…etc,etc.

Unions are a must to ensure proper working


conditions for the laborer but today’s unions have
become a group of followers instead of a group of
leaders. Unions try to insulate their members by
negotiating contracts that seek to eliminate change
instead of trying to mirror the change of the industry
that they in. Once unions place the emphasis on the
professional aspects of it members then truly it will
become an organization of great power doing
120
The Path to Awe
immense good not only for its members but also for
society instead of being an organization that protects
inefficiency. This again is why a culture of emphasizing
the ”We” will never be competitive with the strength
and efficiency of a group of “I’s”. It is the “We” culture
that has caused the current day unions such as the
UAW to dwindle in size and will eventually fail due to
its inherit inefficiency and it socialistic attributes that it
has acquired.

The troubles of the UAW, in all fairness, are not of


their entire making, as a large portion is due to unfair
trade regulations the politicians allow, and irrational
standards that the government dictates to the auto
industry. Then again, the UAW support for the
candidates that impose these standards are irrational
at best as this lock them into an ideology of self-
destruction.

At one point in time in America, all union made


products were of a superior value and quality, which
could not be matched, and that has fallen by the
wayside. The reason is it became a free organization,
people think all you have to do is get into a union and
instantly you are rewarded with high pay for merely
joining the union. You cannot buy loyalty but you can
purchase artificial brotherhood. Getting back to having
requirements to join a union in the first place and
holding the worker and his work to higher standards is
a necessity for unions to regain ethical and just power
to make America strong again.

The Templars built thousands of preceptories and


commanderies and not once was there issues of the
Masons getting a fair wage, because of the structure
of equilibrism; all workers were guaranteed a fair
wage. This is not to say that some worker were not
paid poorly, certainly there were, but this was due to
external forces working on the economy so wealth at
the top was reduced as well.

121
The Path to Awe
The Templars learned from the Masons of how to
structure a free economy where the productive are
rewarded for their labors with an honest wage.

The Masons resided with the Templars in the


Levant (holy land) before, during, and after the
crusades. The Masons and Templars employed many
Jews and Muslims, which was heresy to the Catholic
Church. The Masons which, is a much older
organization than the Templars learned from both the
Jew and the Muslim and as such many Templar
buildings look out of place in Europe because of the
Muslim influence upon their architecture.

Though the church decreed the Templars were to


vanquish all sons of Islam, when they came to a
stalemate in the holy land with the Muslims they not
only made peace but they also made friends. Peaceful
Muslims were allowed to pray in Christian strongholds
and even if the stronghold contained temples sacred
to both religions. Just as in the Templar organization,
you are not persecuted for your faith in the Mason
organization.

You may be of any religious persuasion and be


allowed to join the Masons and Templar organizations.
The Mason organization was the first to do this, at first
out of necessity for labor and then out of wisdom. It
was by the joining of eastern and western building
techniques that allowed the Masons to enter the
golden age of building the most magnificent structures
of Christendom.

The Templars saw the examples before their eyes


of how man accomplishes far more working together
than what he does apart by looking at the Masons
accomplishments.

Since the Templar form of government is for the


people and by the people because the Templars
themselves took a vow of poverty, so they ruled not

122
The Path to Awe
with the aim of gaining wealth but of the protection of
the people.

The Templars began to question how could an


army of God loose to Muslims? They began to question
the Popes real intention of going to the Holy land and
if it was not a mission from God but merely to obtain
lands and wealth.

With the protection of the people in mind and the


question of the Popes true motives then any tax
money derived from the people may not be used to
pay another organization (such as the Church) unless
the people approve the benefits of the organization.
The singular focus of the Templars is the protection of
the people even if it is protection from Christendom
herself. This focus is on everyone that was a Templar,
you did not necessarily have to be a Knights Templar,
but just as a knight you would be expected to not gain
wealth from the people and only live within your
means.

This would translate into today’s standards that


the lowest paid government employee would be paid
two times minimum wage at the lowest level and six
times minimum wage at the highest level. This also
means that any union representing a government
employee may not negotiate wages. No organization
may exist within the government for the express
purpose of concentrating the wealth of the people into
the hands of those that did not earn the wealth.

The elimination of all government unions (for the


express purpose of wage negotiation) ability to seek
benefits for its employees can be rationalized by the
logic that their unions have the government
employee’s best interest at heart and not what is in
the best interest of the people. This also means unless
a contract is bid to a union shop on a specific job then
all unions would be banned from doing business with
the government. Unions must be allowed in the private

123
The Path to Awe
sector but must be kept from government employment
as this type of union may become so powerful that it
could take over the government.

In a Templar society all preferentiality for


government jobs are to hire the permanently disabled
first, followed by retired veterans, then followed by the
highest skilled candidate. Qualifications may be
lowered for the disabled as long as the job can be
adapted to their disability.

Pharmaceutical companies, as well as other


companies, that produce a product that is “Necessary”
to maintaining the value of Human life are put under
the microscope of public scrutiny more than any other
companies. Is it immoral to sell a product for profit if it
helps your fellow man and the profit motive drives
research and development into improving the human
condition? Without the profit motive there is no reason
for the creation of new drugs unless you are
specifically affected or if you truly love your fellow
man.

Profit though, motivates everyone where the


other two reasons only motivate a few. Few products
hold so much power as that over life and death and as
such it is important that this industry not be corrupted
by greed. To combat this, Templars reserve the right of
the government to “Purchased Humanity”. Patents on
medicines last for years and monopolies on these
certain products can harm society if greed is a profit
motive and not an honest profit.

The decision is by the US Congress of the


necessity to end a patents monopoly. After a five year
period of holding a patent the government has the
right to buy that patent for the sales price of the
previous five years worth of sales. The government
must then sell the patent to five competing companies
and the government may set a minimum selling price
of the patented product and the sales tax from the

124
The Path to Awe
sale of the product will be used to recoup the cost of
buying the patent. After the cost has been recouped
then the patent will expire and become public domain.
If a company has shown that 5 years of sales did not
recoup their investment then the government will be
forced to pay the company the difference to recoup
the costs.

Chapter 10

The effects of the five pillars


The Templars adopted the five-pointed star (the
pentangle) to represent the five pillars upon which the
Templar creed is based since their separation from the
Church. The pillars of knighthood are Truth, Justice,
Honor, Wisdom, and Chivalry.

125
The Path to Awe
After their vows of chastity and the third crusade
the Templars (still deeply religious men) were living in
the holy land among the Muslims and had become
quite fed up with the dictates coming from the Pope.
The Pope had sent kings with no knowledge of the
land, it’s people, it’s traditions, and it’s customs to be
the generals of the war and the Templars had no
choice but to be subservient to the appointed generals
in command.

This meant even more unnecessary bloodshed


due to inexperience and ruthless ideology.After all
before the crusades the Muslims allowed all to worship
in the holy land without fear of violence. It was only
after the fist crusade when the Templars slaughtered
every man woman and child in Jerusalem that the
schism between Islam and Christianity was so greatly
enhanced. The Pope was pumping up these soldiers
and sending them off to another land to do Gods
works and it wasn’t until you lived in the holy land for
a while that you would understand why things were
the way they were. Many Templars and Masons saw
the Pope as being very fallible after all the only
crusade they had won was the first and they had lost
the second and the third so if the Pope was working in
God’s name why were they losing? This meant the
Pope had to be infallible and this also means that the
imperfection of man imbues the perfection of God’s
will with imperfection when translated by the common
man. It was in this vain the five pillars came into
being, they were self-imposed upon the Knights that
would eventually supersede the word of the Pope. This
helped lead to the demise of the Templars as they now
had a symbol and rules that were set outside the
domain of the Pope and thereby outside the domain of
God. It was easy for a good catholic to find the
Templars to be heretics.

Once the order was disbanded by the order of the


Pope the pentangle was deemed to be evil by the Pope
and the remaining Templars reshaped the image into
126
The Path to Awe
the present day five pointed American star. Were the
founding fathers a sect of Templars? Maybe? Where
did the origins of “truth, justice, and the American
way” come from? Is this an early attempt to influence
America? What about all the similar principles the
Templars share with American patriotism?
The Templar Conservatorem has not been shaping
America but maybe offshoots of other Templars such
as those that escaped to Cypress or maybe the ships
of the Templars had made it to the New World?

It seems that though America has had many


successes a turning point away from the path to Awe
came in the 1960’s. Franklin Roosevelt’s new deal and
Social welfare had already been at work for more than
20 years and with the help of the cold wars communist
influences led a sufficient amount of the population to
become dependent upon the government. America
has not been able to shake this addiction. This seed of
dependencies has influenced elections and has
allowed the government to grow much larger than
what it was ever intended. Ripe with greed and
corruption the government misconstrues, bends,
shapes, and twists laws to its will and in the process
decimates the will of the people. The flame of freedom
is slowly being extinguished and many do not even
realize it. The people are not in charge anymore, the
politicians are and it is the booming voice of the
people that needs to speak of a change and not that of
a politician.

The further America travels backward down the


path to Awe the further the dream becomes obscured
from sight, until no one remembers which way to
travel. We can still see a glimpse of light in the eternal
and foreboding darkness; we must never let this light
escape from our sight.

It is time for us to awaken from the great sleep


that government, academia, and the courts have put

127
The Path to Awe
us in and take a stand and become strong once again.
It all begins by building dissatisfaction within the
populous with the scraps that the government throws
us, by convincing the public that freedom will allow
them to eat the main course.
Christianity and Islam have their five pillars of
their faith. The Templars ask you to embrace what is
not religion and yet is not of man’s making alone.
Embrace the order of nature, Equilibrism, and the
order of Conservatorem in addition to your beliefs and
faith.

Let the five pillars of truth, justice, honor, wisdom,


and chivalry shape your character and strengthen your
soul for it is the people who need to become strong
before the country can become strong. It all starts with
the individual.

Chapter 11

MAN, HIS ENVIRONMENT, and


ENERGY

As a Templar you are beholden to nature as it is a


creation of a perfect being. Since mans natural state is
to act unnaturally, then it is only the observance of
nature that man may find perfection.

Man still has primitive natural instincts such as


wanting food, water, shelter, air, love, and procreation.
It is these gifts that we should not question as these
are gifts from the creator. In the grand design of all
things if we are to succeed or fail as a species this will
be determined by nature and not by us. Man cannot
control nature. Can man stop a volcano from erupting,

128
The Path to Awe
a tornado or hurricane from destroying, a blizzard from
freezing, or the sun from baking you on a hot summers
day?

It is laughable to think that man controls his own


destiny as his destiny is in the hands of the creator. If
you choose to follow the path then you are rewarded
with prosperity. If you do not follow the path you will
not be rewarded. You may unethically take from others
for your own gain but, in the hand of Moses it is
written that such a man shall never enter the kingdom
of heaven. It is this reason why religion is so
important. Templars believe that the Ten
Commandments have as much to do with obscure
meaning as it does with obvious meaning.

If you do not pay a man a fair days pay for a fair


days work, are you not in fact stealing from him. Many
people rationalize their actions everyday even though
they think they may be wrong deep down inside. This
is “natural” the creator’s way of helping to point you
down the path.

It is not mans test to see if he can overcome


nature, but rather, whether he can live harmoniously
with it.

The Templars were the first true environmentalist


and conservationist. Do not confuse them with the
radical environmentalist of today.

Generally, and I use generally so I do not offend


everyone, environmentalist are radical self-serving self
interest groups. Mainly, they are misguided individuals
that have been convinced they must help the
environment above the needs of the people and do not
realize they are being manipulated like pawns on a
chessboard to the detriment of their own society.
Consequently, environmentalist do more harm to the
environment separately than those not seeking to
protect the environment and they allow their fellow

129
The Path to Awe
man to suffer because of their irrationality and absurd
illogical behavior.

Man is not separate from nature, rather he is a


part of it, and because man’s natural state is to act
unnaturally he can affect his environment in a
detrimental fashion. Man does need to learn to be
harmonious with his environment.

Most environmentalists focus on a certain or a few


issues. By not concentrating on the ecosystem as a
whole and concentrating on just one aspect it will have
a disastrous effect on the entire ecosystem.

A prime example of this are those that want no


one to cut down trees. Yes, we had problems with
deforestation by logging but that problem was fixed
long ago by replanting trees. Now, the save the tree
groups, acts irrationally. Forest are overgrown and are
not allowed to be thinned or have firebreaks cut into
them and so now fires that start that would of only
taken a few hundred acres now take hundreds of
thousands of acres. Destroying the very thing
environmentalist sought to protect and harming the
environment by putting pollutants in the air and
displacing thousands of animals.

The way to identify a person who is not an


environmentalist is a person who does not recognize
humans as being part of the ecosystem. A lot of
present day so-called environmentalist do not use
observable facts as proof, instead they rely on
perception and feeling and disregard facts that do not
fit their agenda. Most environmental movements that
are based upon feelings are warranted because of the
corruption existing within our government and big
businesses that are able to pay to have the facts that
they want. These businesses do not realize that if you
cannot trust the information before you then a person
must make decisions totally based upon emotion.

130
The Path to Awe
Radical environmentalists do not want the facts to
come out as much as the unethical big businesses do.

If you do your research into most


environmentalist causes and conspiracy theories you’ll
find that the money trails lead back to a business that
profits from it. Leading a rational person to stereotype
all environmentalists as pawns, which makes a true
environmentalist work all that much harder.

Lets look at the fallacy of current day


environmentalism upon electrical generation.

Even with the best technology wind and solar


power will not meet the electrical needs for the US (If
we force this technology to be used a much greater
environmental impact will be caused than today’s
traditional means). Since ethical and unethical power
companies already know this but environmentalist
refuse to believe it, unethical power generators are
eager to support the environmentalist and the ethical
generators will turn a blind eye.

Huh? That’s right the support for the


environmentalist come from unethical power
companies and enemies of the state or immoral
investors of the power companies. Examine the
outcome of this strategy. Environmentalists protest
new power plants being built and rally the public
against power companies by using false propaganda
planted within the media. Keeping power plants from
being built with an ever-increasing demand for energy
for an ever-increasing population raises the cost of
energy for everyone increasing a power generators
profit.

This is simple math has the law of supply and


demand on the same side of logic. The net effect is
that the same old technology is used and the pollution
continues, whereas, the newer more efficient plants
that pollute much less will never be built. This stymies
society and keeps man from reaching his full potential
131
The Path to Awe
because greed has corrupted the system and well-
intentioned individuals have become brainwashed.

Look at Al Gore and examine where his family


wealth originates from (Occidental Petroleum) look at
how his wealth increased from the time he began his
radical environmentalism and how much his friends
have profited. Far, far more than any traceable friends
of the much-maligned president Bushs’, though you
never hear about this. The truth is if all the coal
burning plants were replaced with new zero-emission
nuclear power plants then the air would be much
cleaner and the environment would be much better off
overall. Why not use the money used to subsidize
solar and wind energy to find a way to recycle nuclear
waste (that they have had remarkable breakthroughs
with).

Are there risks involved with nuclear energy? Yes.


There is also an equal potential for the extreme good a
nuclear power plant can create by lowering the cost of
energy and damage to the environment. You may also
look at the advantage that nuclear power could be the
catalyst for solar and wind and geothermal power.
These green technologies are very manufacturing
intensive.

By providing cheaper power to this


manufacturing base it lowers the cost for solar, wind,
and geothermal.

Nuclear technology has been stymied by greed,


which prevents green technologies from being more
cost effective. So again the environmentalist defeat
the cause they purport to support. If left to its own
means nuclear power more than likely would of
become 100% recyclable by now or nuclear fusion
might have of become a reality by now. Our
environment is more radioactive because we do not
use more nuclear energy by virtue that radium is
naturally occurring in coal deposits and when burned

132
The Path to Awe
puts radioactivity into our air. Since environmentalists
are irrational, their logic has no basis in truth. The
American economy becomes weaker and the people
become poorer because it is harder for them to create
new wealth. The power generators become more
powerful and wealthy while the environment and the
people suffer.

Don’t just consider the power generation effect on


the environment, with the abundance of cleaner
cheaper fuel than what we have now look at other
sources of pollution that maybe eliminated. Nuclear
powered cruise ships and cargo ships would make our
waters cleaner. Casting plants and smelting plant
would be thousands of times cleaner and run more
efficiently. With cheap energy sewage could be
sterilized with heat and be used as a fertilizer for crops
so it would not have to be discharged back into the
water supply. With electricity being cheap geothermal
units could be made cheaply enough that they could
be used to heat our highways during the winter saving
thousands of hours of labor, millions of tons of salt,
and thousands of accidents could be prevented. This
would give roads a much longer life because they do
not go through the freeze thaw cycle (this is currently
proven technology in use in Greenland). Roads will
cost much less to maintain and they could all be built
from concrete instead of using asphalt that is a
petroleum based product making all petroleum based
products that much cheaper.

You see how much is tied to one decision to not


improve upon old technology and to try to unnaturally
force a technology to be implemented before its time.

To the Templars there is no reason not to move


forward or to progress, as it is mans progression that
moves us down the path to Awe. The Templars being
the first environmentalists would have themselves
differentiated from today’s radical environmentalist
and would prefer to be called Ecosians. Ecosians have
133
The Path to Awe
an all-inclusive philosophy when it comes to the
environment and includes man as part of the
ecosystem. An environmentalist has become known to
be narrow of mind, thought, and focus and dealing in
irrationality painted with hatred and animosity for non-
accomplishment and no progress.
Environmentalists do not understand that by
separating man from the environment he puts man at
odds with his environment. Man against nature...all of
his decisions resulting from this will breed nothing but
chaos. Ecosians believe that man is part of nature so
what is good for mans environment is also good for
man. Look at most environmentalists, they will freely
admit that nature is not stagnant and is ever evolving.
There is archeological evidence to back this up as
great floods have come and gone and places that were
cold in days gone by are now tropical and vice versa.

Yet if you have been taken in by the great hoax of


our time (man made global warming) we are to believe
that our weather is not supposed to change naturally.
The weather is natural and so it is ever evolving. You
must look at man as a part of the ecosystem.

The Carbon Dioxide we produce does not cause


global warming and we dare anyone to bring forth
concrete proof that it could. Carbon Dioxide is
important as part of the ecosystem that supports man.
The more humans there are the more carbon dioxide
we produce, as population increases so does carbon
dioxide, as industry increases the burning of fossil
fuels produces more carbon dioxide. The more carbon
dioxide that is produced the more plant life flourishes
so Ecosians would look at irrigating deserts that are
not highly vegetated and start to make that land
produce vegetation. The more plants there are, the
better the air quality we will have and the more carbon
dioxide (not pollution) we produce the better the air
quality we will get along with higher crop yields.

134
The Path to Awe
Ethanol and methanol are a cyclical fuel due to
their being based upon seasonal crops. Both of these
fuels will be some of our transition fuels, but as usual a
bad politician can turn a good idea into a bad deal for
the consumer. Yes, it is true that ethanol production
has increased food costs but if the additional corn or
sugar cane needed to produce this fuel was produced
on newly created farms that had not previously yielded
any food products then it would have no effect on food
prices. Yes, you currently expend more Co2 creating
the crops than the Co2 they take out of the air. With
different farming techniques and modes of
transportation (such as pipelines linking ethanol
distilleries) this should change to a net gain in Oxygen.
This will turn the planet more green and closer to
nature.

It is natural for us to produce carbon dioxide, we


exhale it, and we use fires that produce it for heat and
energy. This is why plants grow faster and larger when
subjected to higher amounts of CO2. It is part of
nature that man would produce this chemical and
plants would use it as food and give off life preserving
oxygen. This was not done by accident it was done by
the grand design of the creator. If we kill of too many
plants then our health suffers and we die more quickly.
The more plants we have the better our health is and
the longer we live. Since these harvests are burned
and not eaten then it is perfectly all right to fertilize
these crops with human manure helping to curb waste
that is flushed into our drinking water. Just as Israel
has made their desert bloom with life sustaining crops
so should we not breathe new life into our deserts by
turning them into a great sea of green?

Proper implementation of biofuels is needed to be


a consumer friendly product and this could easily be
done by irrigation of our deserts as new croplands. The
Templars have a project in mind for specifically doing
this called the Trans-MexAmerican Canal and this great
project will be addressed later.
135

Chapter 12

The templar influence

The Battle vestments of the Templars bore a white


field with a red cross. The white signified purity and
the red signified the blood of Jesus Christ. The
Templars origins were based in France and in Rome
and an overwhelming number of the knights were
French.

When the Templars traveled to the Holy land by


way of the sea the Templars stationed in the Holy land
began to have their vestments trimmed with blue to
signify the crossing of the sea. Other trimmings such
as red, signified in service to the pope, and gold
trimmings signified to be in service of a king of
another land.

The Knights Templar were renowned fighters and


were feared by many a foe and eventually became
brilliant military strategists (though their later blunders
had more to do with inexperienced leaders that forced
them to use woefully inadequate tactics when fighting
a massive Muslim force on their home turf).

A knight returning to Europe that had blue


vestments was afforded a higher respect than what his
rank would otherwise grant him. Is it just coincidence
that most free countries of European heritage have the
familiar colors of red, white, and blue; countries such
as America, France, England, Australia, and the
Netherlands? Is it any coincidence that the freest
countries of the world are in the west and the most
oppressive are in the east? Why would the most
powerful free nations use red, white, and blue that

136
The Path to Awe
originated with the oppression of the so-called heretics
(the Templars).

There was a defining point in history that started


the reformation from living under tyranny to living as
free men. This is when Jacques de Molay, grand
master of the Templars was burned at the stake in
Paris by the order of King Phillip and Pope Clement V.

Jacques de Molay, being 70 years of age, had


spent four years in solitary confinement, and could of
plead guilty and spent the rest of his life in prison.
Instead he professed his innocence. He was the taken
to the island of the Jews in the river Seine (which is
just a stones throw from Notre Dame Cathedral and
the King of France’s Palace). Jacques de Molay did not
go quietly into the night. He was allowed to have his
hands freed to be able to pray while he was being
burned alive. He again defiantly shouted his innocence
and called on King Phillip and Pope Clement V to meet
him before the throne of God for judgment in one
year’s time. The Pope died one month later and the
King died nine months later.

It was Christ’s blood that has born conscience,


peace, honor, and respect but it would be de Molay’s
blood that would bear freedom. It is his sacrifice that
turned man away from the darkness and has brought
man into the light. Few recognize his name because
the Catholic Church has failed to recognize any
wrongdoing.

The present day Templars are not trying to bash


Catholicism but they do recognize many problems with
the church such as the infallibility of the Pope. The
Church has had many negative and positive aspects
over the years as men have misconstrued and twisted
Gods words for their own benefit and every time they
do man suffers. It is not Gods word that has caused
bloodshed but it is man that does not hear his words
clearly that has caused the bloodshed. To hear his

137
The Path to Awe
word is to discover the nature of God and this is done
by following the path to Awe.

According to ancient prophecy there will be five


people that will sacrifice themselves in the name of
freedom so that all may hear the voice of her
blessings. Four of these souls (called Quinn’s) have
been identified. King Leonidas of Sparta, Joan of
Arcadia, William Wallace, and Jacques de Molay are
determined to be four of the Quinns. The fifth Quinn is
to originate in a new world far across the sea, which is
believed to be in America. His death will bring about a
sweeping change to the world and bring the
acceptance of Gods word to all. This Quinn is said to
speak with a booming voice so that all may hear, and
the Quinn will be large in stature and although he will
be wise beyond his years he will be an elderly
unassuming figure. He will not be a broker of an
established religion…he will bring about something
new that all will recognize as the truth to spread the
word of God so all will willingly believe in the creator.

138
The Path to Awe
Chapter 13

Resolve
How do you resolve your faith with the
government and its legislation?

By limiting the government’s ability to tax and


legislate it will put an end to government interference
with your faith. By putting moral law into the hands of
the community and strengthening the family from
within, you will be able to ward off the negative
influences of society.

Remember, that just because it is against your


religion does not mean it is an issue you must oppose
through legislation. Opposition through legislation can,
in fact, be imposing your religion on to others against
their will. Most opposition should come from
communication directly with the source.

I gave an example of a resolution earlier and here


is another example.

Homosexuality, gay and lesbian marriages, and


homosexual adoptions are very divisive issues and you
will see how they are resolved through true
conservatism and bring all people together instead of
tearing them apart.

Marriage was originally intended to strengthen


the family unit and it was one of those rare things that
both religion and government agree upon. So when
you mess with the definition of marriage you open up
a hornet’s nest. So Templars would bypass he
definition of marriage and define a term for alternate
lifestyle civil unions. We’ll call these definitions
Patriage for joining two males and Matriage for
joining two females. In a Templar society it will be up
to the communities where these unions take place and
whether to recognize them or not. If a community

139
The Path to Awe
recognizes the union of a Patriage or Matriage then
the county, state, and federal government must
recognize it within that community. If these union are
to be recognized as Marriages are recognized then
communities will form associations recognizing each
other’s civil unions and if enough communities accept
these unions then they will be accepted just as a
Marriage is.

The issue will live or die based upon the will of the
people and no ones views of morality will be pushed
upon another. This may push people into a cycle of
“Natural Segregation”. You may find all Christians
moving out of a town that all Gays and Lesbians are
moving into. This is OK, natural segregation does
not promote differences but allows differences and it is
not the will of the people to force you to personally
recognize those differences. It is just the difference in
the moral beliefs, values, and attributes of a
community. Just as you would not have to be Christian
to live in a Christian community nor would you have to
be gay to live in a gay community. If you were to live
in a community that adopts Matriage and Patriage
then you may not agree with it and may even
condemn it but the government must recognize it. If
you don’t like the laws of the community you can seek
to change them or you can move to a community that
shares your values.

If you move to a new community then you must


respect the laws of that community. If you are
traveling or visiting that community they must
temporarily recognize the moral law of your home
community as long as it does not pertain to children. If
there arises a situation where one spouse wishes
dissolution of an alternate lifestyle union then they
must file for divorce in the community that recognized
the union. If one spouse moves to another community
that does not recognize the union then the
government may be compelled to recognize it in
another area. It is only if both spouses move to
140
The Path to Awe
communities that do not recognize the union will the
union be dissolved by default.

As a Christian might say where do you draw the


line on what you allow to be called a civil union? What
if someone wants to marry a dog or a child? Only a
human may bond with a human and only adults may
bond, as a child is deemed not capable of making their
own decisions. This is part of the Natural Law that the
Federal Government delegates to the States to make
their own decisions upon the age of a child but,
intelligence is also an issue, The Federal Government
may deem under natural law that an adult may not be
intelligent enough to make their own decisions such as
the mentally retarded or Alzheimer patients and as
such that a test of intelligence must be passed in order
to marry or be bonded.

To not let Gays and Lesbians “marry” and form


their own communities would be a form of persecution
not unlike how the Jews and Christians were
persecuted throughout history.

If you are a Christian you may feel obligated to try


to talk someone out of an alternative lifestyle or an
alternative lifestyle union but, if they choose not to
listen and do not detrimentally affect you, then keep
your nose out of their business.

The problem that America currently has is that its


structure is not conducive to natural segregation.
There are many different populations that are pulling
the country apart because the government will not let
willing adults and families segregate themselves.

As a Christian you are worried about walking your


child down the street and having them see two gay
men kissing. With natural segregation there would be
a gay community and if you did not want your child to
see that then you would not take them to the gay
community. Conversely the Christian and the Gay man

141
The Path to Awe
are happier in their own communities and their
communities are stronger because of that.

What is to stop segregation from transforming


into racism?
Communities may only make moral law and the
color of your skin or your ethnicity has nothing to do
with morals.

So like in an Equilibric economy, natural


segregation allows people of like minds to live
together within their cell and to strengthen their cell
by means acceptable to them. The strength of their
cell helps to strengthen the larger cell of America.

What about homosexuals and adoption? This is


again a community morals issue but a community of
only homosexuals cannot produce any offspring so a
community that allows adoption of orphans to
homosexuals may have to produce those children
unless other communities allow them to adopt orphans
that they produce.

Chapter 14

Election reform

As it was spoken of earlier that Templars believe


in the adoption of new technology as this is the
142
The Path to Awe
progress that takes us down the path of Awe and
enriches everyone’s life.

We spoke of how the education system would


change by the use of an appliance that is very similar
to a personal computer. The Templars envision this
appliance to be multifunctional and not to be
exclusively used for education but also used for all
interaction with all Government entities. This includes
voting, which was alluded to earlier, but it could be
used for the entire political process.

Millions of dollars are used to run campaigns and


this is a very inefficient use of capital because it
creates no new wealth nor does it add any value to
products. The Templars would put all candidates on an
equal footing. The government would provide to the
appliances EDUNET for education and GOVNET for
finding out all information to do with the government.
GOVNET is a portal where you may view all
candidates’ web pages. This is also where the
candidates may host chat rooms and have download
pages. This is all provided to the candidate free of
charge they must only do the programming. No
candidate or party may advertise in any other
medium. Since all citizens will be provided with an
appliance and they must show an ID and proof of
residence, the chances of the voting process becoming
corrupt will be minimized. The homeless may use a
libraries appliance free of charge. All media may run
factual stories about the candidates but editorials
must run a candidate’s response or position to the
editorial on the same page.

Radio and TV editorials must advertise a link to a


GOVNET opposing point of view page. So Radio and
Television editorial host must post on GOVNET 24hrs
prior to broadcast, the topic of political conversation
so opposing points of view are ready to respond to
hosts points of view. No media organizations may

143
The Path to Awe
endorse a candidate, as this would allow the political
system to become corrupt.

No foreigners or foreign money may be allowed to


make donations. Donations may only be made through
GOVNET as all users are already verified as citizens. All
citizens will be limited to a donation no more than 4
times the national minimum hourly wage. Only citizens
may donate to a candidate. All other domestic entities
may donate to a party but no more than the number of
members or employees times four times he national
minimum hourly wage.

These policies protect the integrity of the political


process and make it much more efficient and less
costly. Any private entity is free to make their own
website or blog about a candidate or position as long
as they do not pay to advertise it.

This was the intent of our founding fathers that


the voice of the people be heard and neither the voice
of special interest groups nor the voice of companies
or other organizations.

Any media outlet must announce editorials before


broadcast and may not be part of any news broadcast
or news section of a newspaper or magazine. Any
organization not complying with this law will be
banished from doing business in America. Any factual
news about a candidate maybe broadcast or published
as long as (like with all news) that it unbiased, truthful,
and accurate. Any intentioned publication or broadcast
that is not properly informing the public about its
purpose and purports itself to be news and is found to
be a biased editorial will have the author and the
presenter guilty of a felony and at a minimum must
pay a fine equal to 1000 times the minimum hourly
wage and spend three years in prison.

This censorship only ensures the truth is heard


and that misconceptions are not spread so the masses
cannot be manipulated. This censorship is legal and
144
The Path to Awe
ensures no disruptions or underhandedness in the
political process.

You are going to hear from the politicians that this


will never work. This is because, this is all new to them
and it scares them, because it dilutes their power.
Politicians will have to stop looking to the side of which
special interest is in their pocket and do what is right
for the people. This will free the politician to do more
with less money. Isn’t it so wrong that a politician may
spend on one campaign, more money then they are
paid over the entire tenure as an elected official. By
rewarding them for preserving and improving the
environment for businesses and jobs and marinating
the integrity of the election process all corruption in
the government maybe minimized.

The first hurdle that maybe crossed is at the local


level as mans government’s derive money from
property tax. This tax needs to be outlawed in the
Templar form of government and needs to be replaced
with a hierarchical sales and income tax. This starts
the change from the bottom up. With citizens secure in
the fact that their home is their home and cannot be
taken once it is paid for releases them to be more
productive.

No more of your local tax assessor valuing your


land or your local school or government charity looking
for a tax hike on property values every year. Tax
money is collect on a weekly basis from individuals
and businesses through the banking system on sales
and income tax.

Yes, some communities may have to merge


together and some may have to split apart in order to
survive but this is the natural order of all things. We
will no longer be artificially supporting programs and
policies that should fail.

145
The Path to Awe

Chapter 15

THE LOCAL COMMUNITY, AND THE


CHANGES
There will be no county or local property taxing
authority.

Water, sewer, streets, parks, schools, libraries,


fire department, law enforcement, emergency medical
services, courts, postal service, and waste
management are all core services that need to be
offered to constitute a community.

The government money will closely match


that of its citizens giving politicians good reason to
make sure there is a positive atmosphere for
businesses. For if the people are unemployed there is
no tax revenue. You will no longer have to worry about
146
The Path to Awe
the value of you house skyrocketing so you cannot
afford the taxes, giving all incentive to do
improvements to their homes, because of property tax
elimination.

All the money that is lost through


governmental bureaucracy is back in the hands of the
people, where through the private sector tangible
products and services will be made. This money will
create additional sources of revenues for the local
governments.

It would be in the interest of efficiency that


all school boards would be disbanded and the local
community governments take this burden upon their
roles. This would allow local government to move
money where it is most needed.

Under the Templar system the school


systems would be vastly different than what they are
today, which was alluded to earlier. Throw the notion
of a traditional school system out.

Families will be earning more money so they will


have a greater emphasis on the responsibility to raise
their own child in a responsible manner. So instead of
taking money out of the economy to have programs
for troubled or disadvantaged youths the Templars
would have you have your own money and say, “Here,
you’re the parent and you can do a better job than
us.” And give you the means and motive to properly
educate your child yourself.

Less money troubles for families’ means more


families’ stay together and the more the family is
strengthened the better society is. By freeing your
child from dependency through education you change
the equitable distribution of wealth naturally. So the
relationships between a man and a woman will
become stronger so a man or a woman will not be so
inclined to leave a spouse for a wealthier person
because everyone will naturally become closer in
147
The Path to Awe
wage scale. The grass is always greener on the other
side mentality will go by the wayside.

In a Templar society you cannot hide from your


responsibilities, so the players in the crowd will learn
very quickly they have a duty and obligation to those
they impregnate and to their offspring.

Equilibrism and the Templar society gives the


man back his pride by giving them the ability to stand
on their own two feet. It gives a woman a better
quality man by which to make a family, with this
newfound pride. Simply letting people keep the wealth
they earn will alleviate most of societies ills.

Schools will be radically altered and cost


significantly less to maintain because technology will
be applied to the educational process and schools will
work hand in hand with businesses. This is not just for
children’s education but for adult education as well.

For years teachers unions who have been


looking out for the best interest of their members have
stymied the educational system and as with any
unregulated political process the management of
schools is wrought with corruption. This is not in
societies best interest to have organizations members
who are not looking out for the interest of the
education system and who have become leeches unto
the system. These systems have allowed schools to
run independent of the economy of which they exist
and therefore never have to become more efficient or
become good stewards of your money. How many
times do you see in a bad economy a school wanting a
new and larger operating levy passed instead of
reducing costs in order to be less of a burden on the
citizen?

Since the government may not pay union


workers by the fact that unions do not operate in the
best interest of the taxpayer. Teachers’ pay will
flourish or suffer with the economy and bad teachers
148
The Path to Awe
may be more easily fired and good teacher will be
more easily hired. Present day schools will essentially
cease to exist.

Kindergarten through fifth grade will


essentially work the same way that they do now but
with an emphasis on learning the EDUNET appliance
that will be used throughout the rest of their
education.

All public schools will be divided into three


academies the National Academy, the State Academy,
and the municipal Academy.

The National academy will be responsible for


broadcasting virtual classrooms to the EDUNET
appliance. They will create a curriculum and
broadcasting content as well as provide a repository
download where classes can be downloaded and
played on the EDUNET appliance. The National
Academy will also host a help line media center, which
can be accessed by EDUNET, by email, chat, video
chat, and telephone. This media center will also host
student forums so not only will teachers help students
but students will also help students. The EDUNET
appliance will be the cross between a cable personal
video recorder and a desktop computer. Classes will be
broadcast along with advertising to help offset the
educational costs. The Edutainment classes can be
rewound, fast forwarded, and paused and children
needing to ask a question may ask a question through
the help line. The computer side of the appliance will
allow the appliance to download quizzes, tests, and
educational games to test comprehension.

The National academy will allow the state


and local academies to broadcast on their network to
the EDUNET appliance. All libraries and hotels will
have an EDUNET appliance and will make it available
to their customers free of charge.

149
The Path to Awe
Local brick and mortar schools will be
transformed into a monitoring and testing center, a
tutoring center for children needing special help, and
for education that cannot be taught over the EDUNET
device. Communities may fund large educational
theatres for children that have both parents working
and the school is acting as educational daycare.

The testing centers will verify a students


identity before taking national certified test and all
students will be treated equally because the
computers will grade the tests.

Students will only be required to go to their


brick and mortar school 2 days a week. Half a day for
testing and 1 ½ days for local curriculum the EDUNET
appliance cannot teach. These would be classes such
as music, physical education, art, and science
experiments. The school schedule would be year round
4 days per week (2 at home and 2 at your local school)
at 9 hours per day with all current holidays observed
and four one week vacation blocks taken during the
year for the week of Christmas to New Years, The week
of Easter, The week of the fourth of July, and the week
of Labor day.

Children may be allowed to work two days


per week for a wage not to exceed minimum wage and
not less than half of minimum wage. They may not
work more than twenty hours per week. They may not
perform any jobs that the states prohibit. 17 year olds
are exempt from the maximum wage children’s law.

This type of schooling allows a child to


progress at their pace. There will be less emphasis
placed upon what grade a child is in as a child might
be doing 12th grade English and only eighth grade
math.

All children will be subject to a national


curfew and will be required to present their school ID

150
The Path to Awe
upon request to a police officer unless an adult
accompanies the child.

This ID is a progressive curfew voucher.


Children with straight A’s are allowed out till 11pm,
Straight B’s are allowed out till 10pm, straight C’s till
9pm, straight D’s till 7pm, and straight F’s till 6pm.

So there are rewards for better grades. If a D


or F average is maintained for more than 2 weeks the
child will not be allowed to work. Communities may
make mandatory laws to reward children and the
school ID must be presented and swiped before any
child may purchase anything.

Communities may restrict things like sporting


events, concerts, purchase of video games,
attendance of movies, the purchase of alcohol, and
driving privileges for children.

The purchase of alcohol by minors? That’s


right! Communities decide when a child may start
drinking. The National Academy requires a “B” average
and in addition local communities might require the
age of consumption to be at least 17 years old and
even a highergrade point average requirement. States
may limit the purchase of alcohol and cigarettes and
may require that you graduate before you can get a
permit for these items even if you become an adult.

Where does the funding come for the schools?

A large portion will come from local income


taxes from the community and the county. This will
pay for maintaining and building the buildings. Present
school buildings will handle twice as many students
because of a staggered two-day school week. Only half
the students will be at the brick and mortar school on
any given day. Monday and Tuesday for one set of
students and Wednesday and Thursday for another set
of students.

151
The Path to Awe
Local schools hire and fire teachers and may
make up their own rules for rewarding good teachers.
The state academy may require all local schools to
teach some classes. The state will pay all teachers
their base wages and may restrict the number of
teachers at any school based upon student enrollment.
The National Academy is in charge of
maintaining the call center, the EDUNET network and
broadcasting content, Paying for the EDUNET
appliances used by the local schools and testing
centers. The National Academy will pay teachers to
write textbooks for their curriculum and then make all
of these books downloadable free of charge to the
public so local schools are not burdened with the cost
of providing books.

In addition to income tax, local schools will be


allowed to levy a fee to the parents of all children at a
rate not to exceed one half of the national hourly
minimum wage for every day their child attends the
local brick and mortar school. This fee may not include
kindergarten through fifth grade.

All local schools may be allowed to levy a fee not


to exceed one third of the national hourly wage to pay
for busing.

So for one child attending the local school


two days per week and being transported by bus and
assuming the national minimum hourly wage is
$6.00/hour, it would be $5.00 per day per child to
attend.

Since local communities are allowed to permit


but not tax local moral behavior such as cigarettes,
alcohol, marijuana, prostitution, and gambling permit
fees may be used to help pay to run the local schools.
No permit fee on an annual basis may exceed fifty
times the national minimum hourly wage. The State
and National Academies may run online gaming sites
to help augment their need for funds only if the State
152
The Path to Awe
legislature approves it. 50% of any online gaming sites
revenues must be used to directly reward the children
for favorable achievement in the form of a check
directly payable to them. Such as a reward might be a
child may receive $100 for completing course work
one year early.
The school cafeterias will become semi private
entities and must make the transition from school
cafeteria to private restaurant. They will be expected
to serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The student cost
of a breakfast, lunch, or dinner approved by the local
school during school hours will cost an amount not to
exceed one hour of the national minimum hourly wage
and snacks will not exceed one quarter of this. To send
a child to school 5 days per week and to feed them
with busing will cost the family about $86 per week or
$4128 per year.

Though the entire society shares the cost of the


school this should not eliminate the responsibility of
the parent. The more a parent is involved with their
children the less it will cost them. If a child attends the
local school just 2 days per week, packs their lunch,
and their parent drives them to school then their
education cost only $10 per week. This gives parents
an incentive to become involved in their child’s
education. If their parent’s take the extra time to
educate their children well their children may actually
make money-attending school.

You may still send your child to a private school


but you will not receive any credit on your income tax
and your child must still take the National Academy
testing, this includes home schooler’s.

Since the schools no longer derive their takes


from property tax the price of property and renting
property will go down. So many of the poor that now
rent will have a large reduction in rent because of no
taxes, although education costs will increase.

153
The Path to Awe
As a parent in a Templar society your
responsibility to your children cannot be escaped. By
not having your children maintain the minimal national
standards for any reason other than a mental disability
you may have all local permits revoked from you, you
may have your drivers license revoked, your wages
may be garnished to pay for tutoring, all government
and private aid may be suspended to you including
welfare.

Your child will not be taken from you as they


are your responsibility. You will have a mandatory
responsibility to your child.

National Academies and State Academies will


not mandate any classes that are of a moral nature. So
the National Academy may offer religious courses but
may not force a student to take those courses.

Colleges and Universities will play a greatly


diminished role from what they presently do. Any field
of study that can be taught within the national
parameters will do so. The National Academy will have
sole discretion over the regulation of college degrees
and course work even in private institutions of
learning.

College students must pay an amount equal to


the national minimum hourly wage to attend the
National academy per credit hour. Attendance at a
partnered University or other institution of higher
learning may be at a price not to exceed thirty times
the national hourly minimum wage per credit hour.

Teachers pay will start at no less than two times


the minimum national hourly wage and the base wage
can be no more that six times the minimum national
hourly wage and private school teachers may make as
much as they want. Local bonuses paid to teachers are
not limited.

154
The Path to Awe
Many people will see the treatment of their
children as being oppressive as children will operate in
a “Big Brother” type state. In truth, what this does is
to teach children that freedom is not free and that
they must earn it by doing well in school. It teaches a
child the rewards of discipline and responsibility.
It is these Gestapo like tactics that need to
be ingrained into our children’s psyche so they always
earn and are not given the luxury of being an
American.

This system of schooling will fundamentally


change everything and will become the great equalizer
in our society. This will not bring any child down but
will raise the level of all children. We will see a boon to
our economy by instilling a work ethic back into our
children. This system of schooling will help to keep the
family together and helps eliminate any biasness or
bigotry of schoolteachers.

Gasoline will be fundamentally cheaper as the


highest sales tax is 10% and a 10% tax on transport
(freight lines) will go towards repairing and upkeep of
our roads and infrastructure. America will form its
purchasing cartel for purchasing overseas oil.
American companies purchasing oil overseas will be
part of the cartel and a price will be set to sell to the
refineries so all American refineries will pay the same
amount for crude oil. America will release oil from its
reserves as needed or reduce output to maintain a
consistent price at the pump. This forces American
companies to explore for oil as the Oil Purchasing
Cartel cannot set or limit the amount of oil American
companies can produce and sell or refine themselves.
This is an incentive to the oil companies and is also a
stabilizing force to keep a consistent fuel price at the
pump. The purchasing Cartel also sets a price floor on
all alternate fuels based upon the price of gas at the
pump which in turn makes the government either
restrict or release oil from its reserves to keep it
155
The Path to Awe
profitable to produce alternative forms of energy. So
you should never see anything but minor fluctuations
in the price of gas. The entire Economy and political
structure will fundamentally change harkening back to
the founding father intentions (that the government is
by the people and not over the people)

• The government can no longer tax


the public at will

• The government tax collections are


pre-budgeted and Sales tax is
articulated

• The Federal Government cannot


impose moral law.

• Bad politicians and judges can easily


be removed from office

• Term limits are eliminated so good


politicians may stay in office longer

• Special interest can no longer affect


election outcomes and their voice is
silenced in Washington

• The Federal Reserve can no longer


print money at will

• Once articles of war are in place the


commander in chief has a budget for
the war they must live within.

• Taxes flow from the bottom up


instead of from the top down

• Health care cost are controlled

• The environment is far less polluted

156
The Path to Awe
• The family is strengthened by tax
policy

• More Jobs are created

• Churches have access to much more


money

• Workers have more money in their


pocket

• America keeps it jobs at home by


having free but fair trade.

• All qualified candidates have an


equal potential to be elected
regardless of money

• The IRS and Tax law will be


dismantled

• Banks and investments will be


fundamentally changed and put on
an equal playing field for all
Americans

• The Congress is decentralized

• A recurring tax on land will be


outlawed

• Any tax not specifically named will


be outlawed unless confirmed by the
people through popular election.

Chapter 16

Civil rights and the minority


What is a minority? Is it a basis in color that
defines a minority? Is it a basis in customs such as
ethnicity? Is it a basis in religion? Is it a basis in sexual
preference? Is it a basis in a disability?

Templars address the civil right of the minority by


not recognizing minorities. By recognizing someone as
a minority you recognize their differences. Since
everyone is an individual then technically we are all
minorities as we all have something unique that
separates us from everyone else. God recognizes that
all men are created equal and it is not for the
government to distinguish them otherwise. The
government may only recognize that which affects all
men equally such as time.

To be a minority is to distinguish you apart from


the whole. Under Templar law no special rights may be
granted or inferred upon individuals, groups, or
organizations that are not granted to everyone else.
The government must treat all citizens equally. So the
only possible minorities that may be recognized may
not be citizens but yet are living within our borders.

Racism ends under Templar law. If you are a black


American or a white American you are an American
and the government only recognizes Americans.
Natural segregation is allowed for in a Templar Society
because this helps to preserve history and culture. If
you go to a Chinese restaurant do you not want a
Chinese cook, if you go to an Italian restaurant do you
not want an Italian as the chef, If you go to an Irish
pub do you not want to feel like you are in Ireland?
This is natural segregation, the preservation of
tradition, heritage, and culture through business.
Natural Segregation only strengthens the economy as
people of like cultures may bind together more easily
158
The Path to Awe
and become stronger because of it. Inclusion of all
races allows for greater wisdom by having many
people traveling several paths to get to the same
place so that all may learn from their journey.

Like all businesses a naturally segregated


business must be inclusive of the public. No business
may discriminate based upon race, creed, color,
ethnicity, and or handicap or sexual preference in the
service or product they sell. Additionally, no
government funds may be used to promote or start
any naturally segregated businesses.

States may allow cultural retreats to be formed by


organizations. The retreat can or will act as villages
within the states. No state may grant any cultural
organization more than an amount of an area equal to
one square mile for the purposes of providing a retreat
for their organization. Retreats may have their own
moral laws such as any village may have, but they
may have zoning that discriminates based upon race,
creed, ethnicity, and color.

These retreats are meant to preserve culture,


tradition, and heritage and all public areas within the
retreat must be open to the whole public for the public
to experience a multitude of cultures by visiting a
multitude of retreats. Besides natural segregation in
businesses and cultural retreats there may be no other
discrimination allowed in society by a private, public,
or government entity.

There will be no hate crime laws, affirmative


action will be abolished, English will be adopted as an
official language and no government entity may use
any other language when communicating with its
citizens, color may only be used for identification
purposes for obvious reasons.

With the emphasis of the government to deal with


the public through the EDUNET appliance to become

159
The Path to Awe
more efficient, the government will become color blind
when dealing with its citizens.

This does not mean there will not be prejudiced


individuals that exist in society but these individuals
will be minimized through the equal opportunity in the
education system.

In the Templar society it is against the law for the


government to recognize a citizen as a minority and it
will be illegal for a citizen to discriminate against
another by recognizing them as a minority. So things
such as racial slurs will be grounds for jail time.

Civil rights are turned into a legal right as


minority crimes will be tried in criminal and not civil
court. So organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan and
the Black Panthers will be outlawed.

Free speech is always allowed so groups may talk


about segregation but speech coupled with action to
oppress a segment of the population will be deemed
as a subversive organization and will be prosecuted to
the fullest letter of the law. If a leader incites his
followersto riot then the leader may be charged with
all the crimes that the followers commit. It will be this
association of leader to follower that will breed
responsible communication.

Under this type of law against oppression free


speech is not limited or censored but there is an
incentive to speak responsibility.

There is also a law of Impugned Character in a


Templar Society. You may not publicly impugn the
character of another without having irrevocable proof.
The test for ones character to be impugned is for a
persons character to be falsely slandered or libeled in
any for profit media source that makes a profit selling
such false hoods. The media outlet distributing such
falsehoods should be made to surrender all revenues

160
The Path to Awe
gained from material containing these falsehoods the
ones character that was impugned.

This way media outlets may not falsely demonize


any citizen without the media outlet suffering from
distributing erroneous, false, or malicious content. This
again does not censor free speech but provides and
incentive for fair, truthful, and honest speech.

Chapter 17

PENAL AND COURT REFORM

The President will still appoint Supreme Court


Justices and the Congress must still confirm them but
the Justices serve at the pleasure of the people. Every
presidential election the justices will run against a null
candidate for a vote of apprehension. If the null
candidate wins, the incumbent justice is ousted and
161
The Path to Awe
the new president must then appoint a new justice. A
sitting justice may also be removed by a unanimous
vote of the gubernatorial senate.

The gubernatorial senate examines all rulings of


the Supreme Court to see if new law has been created.
If the gubernatorial senate confirms that new law has
been created then the decision will be temporarily
vacated by the senate and will be passed to the US
Congress for passage into law. If the decision is passed
into law then the justices ruling will be confirmed. If it
is not passed into law then the justices ruling will be
permanently vacated and the justices will not be able
to visit this issue again. It is compulsory that the US
Congress review the gubernatorial Senate rulings
immediately. This effectively would end any chance of
legislation from the bench that would circumvent the
will of the people.

The penal system of the United States is in


disrepair and it is no longer a forceful deterrent nor is
it reforming or rehabilitating a large portion of
prisoners.

The Templar punishment system embraces two


concepts: Perpetual imprisonment and incentive
release. In laymen’s terms if you break the law you are
fined and incarcerated. Incarceration is not
punishment it is protecting the public from
lawbreakers. Currently, incarceration is looked upon
as punishment and this is an incorrect assumption.
The Templar punishment is hard labor. If you do not
labor you do not pay your debt to society and hence,
you will never be released from prison. In the Templar
penal system if you are incarcerated by the courts for
just one day but refuse to pay your debt you may be
imprisoned until you do. This means you will be
perpetually incarcerated if you do not labor and if you
labor hard then you may be released early, as this is
incentive release. This labor may be sold or used by
the government for the sole use of improving the
162
The Path to Awe
general condition of the public through municipal
projects or private industry. It is this profit center that
will make the penal system not only self sufficient but
profitable as well. Why should a prisoner labor? Simply
put, under the Templar system a convict must
complete a set number of hours of labor in order to be
released. If those hours are not complete then the
prisoner will remain in prison until the hours are
complete.

Lets say a prisoner’s workday is 12 hours long


and their workweek is a 6-day week. That would be 72
hours per week and that would equal 3,744 hours per
year of labor. Prisoners earn ¼ of minimum wage for
every hour worked. So if the minimum wage is $6.00
per hour then a prisoner can earn no more than $1.50
per hour and a maximum of $108 per week. With this
money a convict may gain luxuries in prison such as
improved living conditions, clothing, and improved
food. The more a prisoner works and behaves the
better they are treated. A prisoner who does not work
may be kept in solitary confinement, may get no free
time, and will only be served good enough food to
sustain life.

A part of a convict’s sentence may be


rehabilitation such as learning a trade or completing
coursework for an education. Only once the
punishment portion of the sentence is completed can
the rehabilitation portion begin. This portion of a
sentence is for an undetermined amount of time and a
prisoner may only be released when they have passed
a test to confirm rehabilitation. Prisoner’s families and
friends may pay for the prisoner to receive better food
and accommodations but may not pay to reduce the
amount of labor or reduce the difficulty of a
rehabilitation test.

Prisoners may build modular housing for the poor


as well as municipal projects. When no projects are

163
The Path to Awe
available prison labor may be sold to private industry
for a price to not exceed minimum wage.

Prisoners may only be involved in public works


projects that the citizen approve by a majority vote
unless the project uses less than 33% prison labor by
private industry or private contractors.

Prisoner’s revenue minus their labor cost is $4.50


per hour. 66% of this will pay for the penal system and
33% goes to the law enforcement agencies that
apprehends the prisoners.

Ensuring justice, truth, and equity should never


be a drain on the economy and should always be used
as a profit generator. You know if your penal system is
not a deterrent if it is not a profit generator.

Chapter 18

IMMIGRATION AND ILLEGAL ALIENS

Freedom is not free and to bestow freedom and


prosperity unto an individual that has not earned it
worsens the human condition because it hinders the
bestowee’s acquisition of knowledge. Without this
basic building block true wisdom and integration of
society can never occur. The visitor to our country will
never be able to comprehend why we should be
integrated and united in the cause of bettering the
human condition. An immigrant will never be accepted

164
The Path to Awe
into the family of America unless they climb the ladder
of the American society. By coming to America illegally
you do not value the honor of American citizenship as
you would if you came here legally.

Remember the cellular economy of reinforcing the


cell wall, in an ever-progressive hierarchy to
strengthen the entire economy? By having no borders
is essentially erasing the cell walls and letting the
contents spill out into turmoil and chaos that provides
no certainty that a society needs to exist. Illegal aliens
resist integration and are a plague on society and not
employees of jobs that no citizens want. They prevent
the progression of technology to benefit man by
depressing labor wages from an over supply of labor
that circumvents the necessity to invent and create
new technology to solve the problem of a labor
shortage. By creating a major supply of illegal labor
every legal citizen gets paid less for their being more
laborers in the market. You hear a lot of how so many
companies would go out of business without such
cheap labor because the market determines the price
of commodity based products. If the cost of all the
commodity products rise then they may sell less
product but, it is the drive for a profit that will cause
them to better the process through technology and
eventually become less labor intensive and that in turn
betters the human condition.

Additional cost to our healthcare system and to


education and to law enforcement will force a change
to come to our immigration policy, for if it does not,
the productive will be eaten alive by the taxes to
support the illegal immigrant.

The illegal immigrant has artificially kept


companies operating that should of went out of
business long ago or changed their process to become
a less labor intensive profitable company.

165
The Path to Awe
The Templars remedy the problem of immigration
by turning it into a profit center.

First, lets recognize the obvious; coming to


America illegally…is well…illegal. There must be a
penalty for breaking the law otherwise there is no law
by which a country is defined. Any Templar law dealing
with immigration will always be unpopular with
immigrants because it is not in their interest until they
become citizens, so they will most likely oppose
Templar change.

Immigration law must be enforced or it will likely


wipe out what prosperity that America has left. The
enforcement of this law however, does not have to be
carried out with a heavy hand, humiliating a huge
(although illegal) portion of our population that call our
land home. The solution is an inspired one that comes
to us from our Mason brothers.

The Trans-Mex-America canal would be the largest


construction project of all time and would dwarf all
other building projects like the Great Wall of China and
the Yangtze River Dam.

Building this canal will involve widening and


deepening the entire length of the Rio Grande River to
accommodate large ocean going freighters and oil
tankers. Installing locks to control the level of the
water will be necessary. Land will be bought from
Mexico and the canal will be extended westward from
El Paso straight across the bottom of Arizona through
the Rocky Mountains and a dike will be made within
the Gulf of Baja to dam in the water that empties into
it from the Colorado River. Mexico will be responsible
for extending the canal through their section of the
California Baja to connect the canal from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Many nuclear power plants and
desalination plants will be built to operate the canal
and to support the cities that will house the new
economy that will result from it.

166
The Path to Awe
Mountains will fall and many new lakes will be
formed. The land bought from Mexico will be
designated as an industrial reservation. This means it
will not be a state and the government may build upon
this property without relinquishing control to a
population of people, so it can build a large number of
Nuclear power and desalination plants without
governmental red tape being involved. This canal will
irrigate the entire South and arid Southwest as well as
the Sonoran Desert in Mexico to grow crops of Corn
and Sugar Cane and Soybeans to be used for making
Biofuels. Cotton and other crops such as wheat, olives,
and pistachios could be grown here and sold at the
many ports of call that will be created on the canal.
With American ingenuity this project could be
completed in 15 years for an estimated $100 billion
dollars. This would be a small price to pay for
increasing the value of all the desert land by virtue of
making it productive. This land will provide the fuel to
make us totally independent of foreign sources of
energy and will create so much new commerce and
jobs that we will be reaping its benefit for decades to
come.

This will be the shortest route for ocean going


vessels going from the Atlantic to the Pacific or vice
versa. It will be our river Nile through our Egyptian
plain.

The canal will be paid for in four ways.

• A 10% Tariff will be placed upon the electricity


the 25 Nuclear Power plants built in the
Industrial Reserves.

• The 10% Sales Tax placed upon the Sales of


crops produced on the newly irrigated land. The
government is required to buy all biofuels and
manipulates the price of fuel to ensure
profitability to create such fuel. The 10% sales

167
The Path to Awe
tax on all fuel created here and exported to
other countries.

• Selling public land and the sales tax generated


from the sales of private land in the area. The
offsetting revenue from the incremental growth
in property value from property sales tax will
more than help to pay for the property to be
purchased and for some construction costs.

• Canal usage fees and port dockage fees will be


another major source of revenue.

Immigrants, pre-citizens, citizens, Mexicans, and


the incarcerated will build the canal. The canal will
be the largest construction project ever taken on.
Widening the canal to 1 mile wide and making it 60
feet deep will be a massive undertaking but it will
be finished in record time by using a massive
amount of cheap labor.

Besides the incarcerated, how will we get this


cheap labor?

The US Congress must pass a bill into law that will


require that illegal immigrants may only make a
maximum wage equal to the national minimum wage
and any amount an illegal is paid above this, the
employer must pay to the federal government in the
form of a fine. If an illegal has been here more than
three years and it can be proven, then their maximum
wage will be half of minimum wage. If an illegal is here
for six years or more then their maximum wage will be
equal to one tenth of minimum wage and the
employer will be subject to jail time for hiring illegal’s.

Any illegal may become a pre-citizen at no cost.


As alluded to earlier a pre-citizen is not an illegal nor
are they an immigrant but they are immigrants
earning their citizenship. All pre-citizens working on
the canal project may make a maximum of two times
minimum wage.
168
The Path to Awe
These laws will move millions of illegal
immigrants to our southern border and to the canal
project. Initially prisoners will build prefabricated cities
to house the rush of immigrants to our border. Only
then will the prison population be able to begin work
upon the canal. A law will be passed so that any
prisoner may choose to work on the canal if they so
choose and, every hour worked upon the canal will
knock 20% off the time of their incarceration.

Pre-citizens that have children that wish to


immigrate will have to work 12,500 hours on the canal
project in order to qualify to become citizens and then
they must just pass an English proficiency test and a
basic education test as well as their children passing
these test modified to their age. Any pre-citizen not
immigrating with a family only has to work 10,000
hours on the canal project and must still pass the
tests.

The US Government will do no background checks


into the history of the individuals. All that will be
required is that an immigrant presents an official
identification card that their government recognizes.
The US will share this information with the immigrant’s
home government and if the immigrant is wanted in
his home country for any crimes then they will be
deported.

This is a controversial aspect of the pre-


citizenship program. Millions of immigrants with no
background checks, thousands could be murderers
and thousands could be rapists. The fact is that we
don’t know if we let a person in, who has in the history
broken the law, if they will break the law again. We
also don’t know if we let a person in that has never
broken the law that there is no guarantee that they
will not break our laws. If their home country will not
pursue their capture and incarceration then it is not
worth our time and expense to run a background
check on these individuals. States may perform any
169
The Path to Awe
background check on a pre-citizen as they wish and at
anytime. States may also require that pre-citizen have
to meet certain requirements such as being tested for
communicable diseases and they may require random
drug testing.
7 million souls working 15years will create a
paradise within our deserts. This large demand for
labor in the south will cause a labor shortage in the
north and as such wages will rise in the north. Sewage
that would have been pumped into our Great Lakes
and other water supplies will be piped to the south and
be transformed into fertilizer and even the methane
will be captured and used for cheap reliable power.

This Canal, like the Great Wall of China, will


control the flow of illegal immigration by the sheer
nature of the impediment it imposes. Not only will the
canal mean development of our Southern border but
also the development of Mexico’s Northern border.
Millions of good paying jobs will be created in Mexico
reducing the flow of illegal aliens to America.
Simplification of the process of becoming an American
and the reduction in time will reduce the flow of illegal
immigration. Illegal immigration will eventually
become a thing of the past.

Once the great canal is built States may erect pre-


citizen villages and have pre-citizen labor in their State
doing municipal projects and or having their labor sold
to private industry. Initially, thousands of pre-citizens
will be used to thin heavily overgrown forest and the
trees harvested from this thinning will be used as
building materials to build the new cities of the south.
This thinning of our forest will help to control forest
fires and further reduce pollution in our atmosphere
and naturally make the forest stronger by the
promotion of preserving old growth trees. By putting
plant life where once there was none we will have less
carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by virtue of adding
so much more oxygen.
170
The Path to Awe
Massive Solar arrays may be built if found to be
profitable, as these may provide shade for crops
during the hottest times of the year. This Desert area
will be planted with millions of palm tress in an effort
to change the very ecosystem to that of a massive
oasis.

Chapter 19

The environmental/energy plan


The Federal Reserve may purchase and hold oil
just like gold and then sell it for a profit when it
exceeds their cost. The Federal Reserve along with
private industry will form OPIC (Oil Purchasing and
Importing Countries) a purchasing Cartel that will
negate the control of OPEC (Oil Producing and
Exporting Countries). By putting a massive amount of
energy into our reserves we can control the price of
fuel. With the help of tapping our own natural
resources we can once again become not only a super-
power but we can become more, a Hyper-power.

How will this be achieved and what will be the


cost to the environment?

In the previous chapter we discussed how a


massive amount of land that was once unproductive
might become productive and as a bonus,
substantially improve the environment by the addition
of oxygen and the reduction of pollution.

If energy is cheap enough, everyone will use it


as a power source. So if energy is clean and cheap,
you will have a better environment than if energy is
dirty and cheap.

171
The Path to Awe
If you want people to drive around in plug in
electrical cars then you have to make electricity cheap
or the cars very very cheap. Since Americans are
concerned with road safety and quality, really cheaply
manufactured cars will never become a reality. So
electricity needs to be made cheaply and if the
environment is to not suffer then it must be made
cleanly.

Solar is inefficient compared to the amount of


resources and maintenance it consumes in producing
a solar product compared to its output. Yes, great
strides have been made in solar technology and it is
almost assuredly the power source of the future, but
the technology is not there yet. Wind power to,
consumes many resources and has a large
maintenance cost associated with it and you are at the
mercy of Mother Nature to provide the wind and in
many cases it is inconsistent at best. Many more
advancements need to take place where wind energy
would be a good choice for a large portion of the
population. Hydro Power is a proven technology but
because of the value of land it can only be put into use
in very scarcely populated areas.

Coal and Natural gas have become very clean


with recent technology and as a bonus they produce
plant food, (carbon dioxide) but they still produce
some pollutants and put particulate into the air. They
are however; a very cheap power supply that gives
you a very good value for your dollar.

Nuclear power is the best bang for the buck, but


the pollution it creates is so concentrated that people
just shudder that a small amount might cause an
untold catastrophe affecting thousands if not millions
(Chernobyl is often cited as an example).

Geothermal is expensive to get and in most


cases puts more pollution in the air than what old coal
fired plants do.

172
The Path to Awe
As far as current technology goes there is no
perfect power source. We will have to use something
less than perfect and it must be cost effective enough
to business to keep them competitive, for if our
businesses fail so then shall the country.
It is inherit that we use the most efficient and
cost effective technologies for each different use we
have. If you heat your home with Natural Gas you
enjoy a good value but when the price of Gas goes up
then you may look to other cheaper sources such as
wood.

Burning wood is not considered very


environmentally friendly as it releases a lot of
particulate matter into the air. So a high tax on any
fuel produces detrimental effects on the environment.

The Templars are also Ecosians, so they look at


the entire picture of the environment and sees what
would be best for man first, the environment second,
and the economy third.

First of all our power sources for producing


electricity need to be diverse. We do not want to stick
all of our eggs in one basket because if we have a
problem with one technology it should not affect the
others. So in very windy places wind energy may be
viable and in very sunny places solar energy may be
viable but in other areas of the country Coal power
and Nuclear power and Natural Gas are our best
alternatives to still keep our businesses profitable.

So, like solar and wind technology, we use the


very latest technology to produce the most efficient
ways to harness this energy and so should this be with
coal, gas, and Nuclear. Many old nuclear power plants
need to be shut down and new ones created. Many old
coal power plants need to be demolished and have
new ones built, but all of this should be done with an
eye on the environment.

173
The Path to Awe
Coal is produced in only so many states and
because of laws many power plants are built far from
the source of coal. Coal is transported to the power
plants using energy usually in the form of diesel fuel
that powers trains, trucks, and ships that deliver most
coal. This artificially inflates the cost of your energy
through transportation as the cost to maintain power-
lines and energy loss from those lines is less expensive
and less harmful to the environment for the electricity
to travel by power line. So for planning purposes you
would not want coal to be transported any farther than
200 miles from its source or you are more negatively
effecting the environment. This would reduce the use
of diesel so transportation costs would be lower. Now,
couple a policy that all new coal plants produced will
be clean coal plants and you have helped the
environment and the economy.

Nuclear power is advantageous where a water


supply is present as the cost to transport fuel for these
plants is negligible compared to the energy it
produces. So Nuclear Plants will replace the coal power
plants that are further than 200 miles from their
source and there is a plentiful water supply present.

Before a Nuclear power plant is built , if Solar


Energy and Wind Energy could be profitable in the
same location then these energy sources must be
used instead of Nuclear Power.

For conserving energy each new house built may


be required to have a geothermal furnace and to
reduce the cost of these furnaces, manufacturers may
use prison labor and pre-citizen labor. All new houses
will have to be super insulated with a wall thickness
being a minimum of 6 inches thick and a standard of
12 inches thick will become a mandated standard for
public rental housing. All old houses replacing their old
furnace or boiler will be required to upgrade to new
geothermal furnaces.

174
The Path to Awe
This will save an untold amount of electricity,
natural gas, and fuel oil. This reduction in electricity
will reduce the amount of coal used and so electrical
prices will drop as demand for the product drops.

Since the OPIC cartel will help regulate the price


of gasoline throughout America, gasoline will be kept
at an artificially high price so other forms of energy
may be developed and through quantities of scale
these prices may eventually compete with the natural
price of gasoline. Since natural gas consumption will
be lowered for use in households then automakers will
be able to develop more cars burning CNG
(Compressed Natural Gas), which is readily available in
most households with the aid of a compressor. A
ready-made distribution system for an alternate fuel
that already exists with the aid of a household
compression system. CNG burns cleaner and you get
more miles for your dollar with CNG.

Now, the Auto-market has become diversified


with two fuels and since we are a large producer of
CNG this will make us less dependent on foreign
sources of energy. By using biofuels such as ethanol,
methanol, and bio-diesel we will be able to become
independent without having to drill for new sources of
oil.

Oil is a valuable commodity and the more of it


we have in storage the more we are able to control its
price so even though we will be energy independent
we will still explore and drill within America for fuel to
protect the environment. By drilling for oil within
America, oil does not have to be transported in tankers
across the sea. By transporting oil across the sea
opens up the most likely-hood of having an
environmental disaster. It’s a fact of life, ships hold
millions of gallons of oil and ships sink. Pipelines are
inherently safer and protect the environment by virtue
that they cannot sink (though they can spring a leak)
and if they leak they will not leak near the amount of
175
The Path to Awe
oil as a sinking tanker. So new exploration of oil is
needed to retain and preserve the price of fuel , so our
businesses remain competitive on the world market
and by drilling for oil at home we protect the
environment.
No longer will the government profit from leasing
land to oil companies to explore for oil. As long as a
business can show they have the resources to explore
for oil on a plot of land owned by the government then
the government shall make their money for the use of
this land through the taxation of the final product to
the consumer. This way it does not cost so much to
explore for oil and it makes being in the oil business as
a small operation more profitable. More oil companies’
means more competition and that means a lower price
for the consumer. Over a ten-year phase in period oil
companies will only be able to sell an amount equal to
what they have in storage. This storage may be
purchased by the Federal Reserve and counted as the
oil companies’ storage even though the government
owns it.

Urban sprawl will be embraced as a concept for


minimizing the effect of pollution. By lessening the
concentration of people in an area you minimize the
effect that people have on their environment. Templar
economic abhors concentrations of wealth so by
natural means urban sprawl will boom. Just like a
magnifying glass, a densely populated city magnifies
pollution. So just like the sun is not bad for you, but
when it’s concentrated by the magnifying glass it can
burn you and so it is with nature and pollution. By
spreading the population out we are burning ourselves
less. By preparing for urban sprawl in advance of it
you can further reduce the effects of our pollution
upon nature. By planning many hubs in many new
planned cities such as the ones that will be created by
the Trans-Mex-American Canal you can efficiently
create modes of mass transportation that will
minimally effect the environment. The use of high
176
The Path to Awe
speed electric trains is an example, smaller roads
within cities to promote the use of golf cart sized cars
and zoning regulations limiting the size of retailers
such as grocery stores can be used to create more
small stores that are closer to more people so less
people have to travel in order to shop. Zoning laws
would take one large store that many people, in many
cars, drive to and break it up into four stores that
many people will drive a much shorter distance to get
to. This is much more efficient even for the delivery of
products to more stores by trucks because they are
much more fuel efficient by comparison when hauling
heavy loads, and remember the plan that by moving
coal power plants closer to coal, diesel fuel will go way
down in price.

Refining gasoline is a bottleneck and increases


the price of fuel needlessly. We will standardize all fuel
into either a summer or a winter mixture. Not a
different formula for every sate that chokes our
refining as well as storage capacity.

By making the freight industry more efficient it


makes our products cheaperby conserving energy. By
having so many freight companies operating
chaotically and not enough laws protecting the labor
within the freight industry our freight system has
suffered. Our freight system supposedly became
deregulated years ago but regulations have been
forced upon this industry in such a manner that it has
stymied its growth.

The examination of government control over


our commercial vehicles is an examination of abject
lunacy. Airline pilots and Bus drivers are not required
to get as much sleep as a driver that is hauling freight
that can easily be replace unlike the human cargo of
the other drivers. Would you not want a person driving
the school bus your children are on under more
scrutiny than the one that hauls products to Walmart?
Logistics does not necessarily have to be regulated but
177
The Path to Awe
it does have to be managed and it can be better
managed through technology. If you are a truck-driver
or other commercial vehicle operator please read the
whole plan before you criticize it, as it is an articulated
plan.
The first thing we would suggest is to put a floor
on the price of freight which we would set at the
national average price of fuel per gallon for the
previous week divided by 6 plus the national hourly
minimum wage divided by 15 and take that answer
and multiply by 2. ((Avg price of fuel/6)+(Min
wag/15))*2. This new price floor will stop cutthroat
competition and shrink the market of carriers as more
companies will consolidate shipments. All purchasers
of freight must load freight within one hour of the time
the truck is scheduled for arrival. Cancellation of a
load after a driver’s arrival cost the purchaser 100
times the national hourly minimum wage. After the
first hour, detention time must be paid at a minimum
for the number of hours detained time the national
hour minimum wage for each consecutive hour. So if
the minimum wage is $6.00/hr, at hour number two
you will pay a $12.00 detention and at hour number
three you will be paid for hour two plus $18.00 for
hour number three so if you are detained for 3 hours a
minimum detention bill is $30. The longer you are
detained the more your company is paid.

All drivers must be paid for every hour spent in


the truck, even if sleeping. All drivers must be paid a
minimum of the national hourly minimum wage plus
time and a half for all hours spent in the truck. All
drivers must also be paid a minimum of one thirtieth
of the national minimum wage per mile for the miles
they drive. This puts all carriers on an even footing as
far as a minimum they must pay their drivers.

The hours of service will change dramatically.


The driver must get two physicals every year and their
doctor will assign them a rest to drive ratio based
178
The Path to Awe
upon their physical condition. The best ratio a driver
may achieve is 2:3 (for every 2 hours of rest you may
drive 3 hours) and the worst ratio a driver may receive
2:1. ( or every 2 hours of sleep you may drive only 1).
A minimum rest period is two hours and any driving
period of 8 hours or more must have a 1-hour lunch
break and two ½ hour coffee breaks. The maximum
hours a driver may drive is any given 24 hour period is
14 hours. If you take a 2-hour or more break you are
not penalized for previous hours accumulated. You
must use up accumulated hours before you can
accumulate more. So if in the middle of a 10-hour
drive you take a 5-hour nap as long as you don’t count
it as accumulated time the 10-hour drive can legally
take 15-hours. If you drive five hours and take a five-
hour rest period and have a 2:3 ratio then you may
only drive 7 ½ hours after your rest. This gives a driver
a lot of versatility to plan their day and still get
adequate sleep in order to drive safely.

Your physical health is determined by your


physical fitness and factors such as smoking, drinking,
weight, cholesterol, heart rate, all play a factor in
determining your fitness. The better shape you are in
the longer you can drive.

All trucks will be equipped with a black box that


also allows for free communication with you home
base. This black box will keep your electronic logs for
you and its GPS keeps track of you.

A database will be connected to the black


box via the Internet and at any given time you may
view a posting board to see loads that are available
within a 100-mile radius and with pricing and contact
information. The government will require all
companies not transporting their own freight or that
do not have a contract with a freight broker to post
their loads on the government load board. Many loads
will be able to bypass the freight broker and cheapen
freight cost but the freight broker will still have his
179
The Path to Awe
place, although it will be greatly diminished. Now
drivers will be more efficient in finding local loads
instead of driving many empty miles to find a return
load home. The black box will also have a built in
navigation system that will be linked with state patrol
computers to warn of construction and or wrecks.
Tax will be reduced for those trucks that have no
sleepers and the intention of this is that it will help get
the drivers out of an idling truck at night and put them
in a hotel room. This will also help to reduce fuel
consumption. Plus lighter day cab trucks should have
larger gains in fuel efficiency as well as costing less to
produce. These black boxes will automatically govern
the top speed of a commercial truck based upon the
posted road speed. These black boxes may be rented
for $20 per month or a one-time fee of $500 for the
life of the vehicle.

All café standards will be lifted from all vehicles


and only by means of tax breaks that the government
gives to fuel-efficient vehicles will this help to entice
consumers to buy the vehicles that will help the
environment. The banks will also be allowed to make
special low interest loans on these preferred vehicles.

Chapter 20

Cheap communication for all

Due to the need for universal system


integrations for the maximum efficiency of the
government interacting with its people it will provide a
180
The Path to Awe
free but public communication system. A high speed
nationwide network for the Education system, Freight
System, Banking System, Election System, Postal
System, and the tax collection system. This system
should allow consumers to buy a VOIP phone and use
it free of charge on the public communication system
as well as having free high speed Internet anywhere at
any time across the United States.

This will not replace private companies because


all the communication on this network is not private.
The law does not need a warrant to listen in on your
communications or to view your e-mail on this system.
Plus this “Government Internet” will be censored so
even though it might sound big brotherish a citizen
may always opt for a private communication system.

Law enforcement will enjoy the help of


“Emergency On” WIFI cameras to be mounted where
appropriate for public safety. These cameras can be
tripped by a wired system or a wireless system. These
cameras are different from the kind used in the United
Kingdom, as these do not actively monitor the people
they only activate when an alarm is tripped. Personal
Alarm, House Alarm, and Car Alarm all will be able to
activate these cameras and then law enforcement will
be able to use this as evidence to convict criminals
and these will be used as a great deterrent.

templar theory

It is the thought of the Templars that the Creator


gave man religion as both a curse and a gift. Religion
gives us the discipline to find the path to Awe by
recognizing there is a creator but it also causes great
strife because of the great misinterpretations of the
creator’s word. It is only through resolving the strife of
that which his word has caused, shall man truly be free
to discover his own destiny.

From the great repository of knowledge we


learn that Jesus was a carpenter but he was no builder
of houses he would actually be better described as a
furniture maker. He had made many great works of art
from trees. It is the trees that eat carbon dioxide and
convert it into oxygen. It is the trees that are our best
solar machines that use the energy of the sun for this
conversion process. We still have no machine that we

182
The Path to Awe
can build that can do this as cheaply and as efficiently
as a tree,

The Tree of Life and the Tree of knowledge are


mentioned many times in many ancient artifacts. It
was said these trees are hidden in the garden of Eden
where man may not find them.

Some Templars believe the tree of knowledge to


take another form in the Internet but we believe that
there actually was a tree of knowledge and Jesus
found it. It was a master tradesman during Jesus’
youth that taught him about how to make furniture
and this tradesman was of all things a Mason. One day
while searching for a tree to bring back to the Mason,
Jesus found the tree of knowledge. He wrote that he
felt like he was being guided when he found the tree.
After eating the fruit from this tree his mind awoke and
he realized he was the Son of God and his life now had
purpose, he was able to make connections that were
not obvious to man. Jesus came back to the tree later
in life and cut it down and hid the essence of the tree
with nature. We know that he said God protected the
tree from another who had try to cut down the tree
was struck by the hand of God. From his description
the tree of knowledge looked like any pine tree during
the day but at night the needles of the tree turned
translucent and glowed like a burning bush (sounds
like another bible story). He had heard stories from the
Mason about the tree of knowledge and the tree of life
and exactly why Jesus destroyed the tree of knowledge
and its essence we do not know. We do know that
before the Sermon on the Mount he found the Tree of
Life and ate the fruit from that tree. This
fundamentally changed the nature of his being. The
fruit of this tree resembled grapes. He destroyed this
tree and hid it essence in nature as well. This tree as
well glowed at night and the hand of God guarded it.

Did Jesus know of his divinity as a child?


Apparently it wasn’t until he ate the fruit from the tree
183
The Path to Awe
did he become aware of his divinity. This goes against
what so many religions preach. By hiding its essence
in nature could this mean to hide its genetic code in
nature? Other references of Jesus describe the body as
a temple and the smallest portion of which can be
instructed by Gods will. This almost sounds like he is
talking about cells and how they can be programmed
not unlike what scientist envision doing with nano-bots
or stem cells. Protected by the hand of God we
interpret as being like lightning or electricity. The story
of the Mason was that at one point there were many of
these trees and the people lived longer with less
illness than what they did when something destroyed
them all (like a natural disease?). We believe that
these trees created much more oxygen than other
trees. The remaining trees were, as we theorize, male
and female trees and it was because of the thought
that all the fruit would be eaten and that the trees
would be lost were why the trees were hidden in the
first place.

We theorize that the great construct is


reconstructing the genetic code that was hidden in
nature. The recreation of a tree that absorbs sunlight
and turns much more carbon dioxide into oxygen than
what a normal trees does. This tree will also store
electricity like a battery and give off some sort of
bioluminescence at night.

This is not so unbelievable that in time man will


learn how to create this type of tree from the genetic
code of other plants and animals in nature. Think of it
as having trees as a power source and the more we
grow the more power we have. A true symbiosis of
man, industry, and nature.

The other aspect of this is that the fruit from one


tree may stimulate the learning centers of the brain
and activate something that may lay hidden in our
own genetic code and that the fruit from the other tree

184
The Path to Awe
may stimulate all the other cells of the body and give
them the information to somehow repair themselves.

So is the path to Awe about genetically


modifying trees? No! Yes! Were not sure, but the more
science progresses we are sure more information will
be revealed and we believe it is these trees that will
signal the path to Awe.

The three marks on the Templar sword stand for


the symbiosis of the Tree of Knowledge, the Tree of
Life, and Man and not the holy trinity of the father, the
son, and the Holy Ghost.

It is also thought that the cross that Christ was


sacrificed upon may have been one timber from the
Tree of life and one timber from the Tree of Knowledge.

Was Christ divine? Absolutely! Do we all have


it in ourselves tobecome divine? Possibly. After all, are
we not all made in he image of God? Did Jesus have a
wife and children? There is evidence that does seem to
support this but there is no definitive answer to this
question.

Is there a Holy bloodline the Templars are


protecting? No, we are not, but this would be a
question for a Freemason and not our organization as
we are no longer part of the Church. The Freemason
Knights Templar may have knowledge of this.

185
The Path to Awe
Is there a Holy Grail? Yes there is! Jesus wrote
of the Grail as he was the one that made the Grail
from the tree of life. It is a plain wooden cup and it is
suspected to be hidden by another sect of existing
Templars and is thought to be in the ruins of a Castle
hidden in the Cullin Mountains of Scotland along with a
Templar Invicta sword made for the Caesar
Constantine. This sword incorporates the metal from
the spikes of which Christ was crucified with and is
most commonly known as Excalibur.

How did the Templars get these spikes to make


the sword with? The Templars were in charge of the
cross of the crucifixion and to historical accounts the
Cross-was lost to the Muslim armies at the battle of
the Horns of Hattin. This was not the case. The
Templars were being led into battle by an inept king
and realizing the almost certainty of defeat and that
many Knights felt more and more that this was not a
mission from God. They switched the crosses and
when Jerusalem came under siege by Saladin the cross
was taken apart and incorporated into a plain cart. It
was later reassembled and taken to Paris and hidden
in plain sight. The cross was later moved in the early
1800’s to America and was hidden by the Masons
somewhere in a crypt in a Louisianan swamp.
