Safe Sex

Safe Sex was not a click-bait title, so let’s get right into it. What is safe sex? According to Wikipedia, “Safe sex is sexual activity using protective methods or contraceptive devices (such as condoms) to reduce the risk of transmitting or acquiring sexually transmitted infections (STIs), especially HIV. The terms safer sex and protected sex are sometimes preferred, to indicate that even highly effective prevention practices do not eliminate all possible risks.” The term is sometimes used to describe methods that might prevent pregnancy but will not reduce one’s chances of acquiring a pesky infection. Of course, if you’re into a Terrain-view, then STDs are just your body’s way of saying it is out of balance.

A word of caution: the Wiki page on ‘safe sex’ is pornographic.

The preferred acronym for yucky stuff you pick up on your travels is STI; sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) sound so irreversible and possibly fatal, plus STD rhymes with SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) and SDGs are a good thing, a must-bee. Alan Watt pointed out to us that sex is glamorized in the movies, but you’ll seldom find a movie dedicated to Life with Herpes.

Several years ago, I was talking with a childhood friend who was telling me about her grown daughter’s new boyfriend. We were raised in Christian families, sent to Christian schools, and inculcated with Christian values. She said, “It’s too bad that we did not receive sex education in school. It just wasn’t talked about. The only thing that we were told was to save ourselves for marriage.” Says I, “That’s not bad advice. We could have been told the why, but nobody knew the why. They only knew it was ‘wrong,’ or a ‘sin’ to have premarital sex.”

I then share a thimbleful of things I learned about sex from Alan, and things I have considered based upon my own experiences, thoughts, and observations. “Why do you suppose the elite are obsessed with sex? Sexual power? Sex magick? Humans can create ‘after their kind’ in a continuation of the work of the Creator, who alone creates ex nihilo, from nothing. This is powerful. It is sacred. Sadly, we’ve turned it into a sport.”

We watch others play this sport, in a variety of ways; much of it lifted out of the sewer of pornography, elevated and sanctioned by the immodest clothing of the stars we follow and the filth that comes out of the mouths of televised comedians and politicians. Was I just redundant? We’ve defiled ourselves and we are far from the power of UNI-ty given to one man and one woman, that this creative act confers.

Much of the focus of this Alan Watt Redux from 2007, “Chaos, Conflict and Caritas,” is on war and how we allow our sons to participate in wars whose real purpose we know nothing of. Years after a man returns from whatever ‘conflict’ he served in, he continues to celebrate his military stint at the local lodge with other veterans. Annual reunions and booze ups. Living and dying, never knowing. But our individual and collective guilt is not just from the wars that our tax dollars fund, and our sons die for. Alan said, “We're complicit in everything that these boring people at the top, with their boring speeches, put us into, and yet we don't participate openly in any of the decision-making. It's done on the subconscious and the unconscious level. ‘If I'm okay, and me and mine are fine, and people are keeping off my back as much as possible, then I don't really care what's happening anywhere else.’ That's a shortsighted attitude, because eventually when the dominoes fall, it comes around to you and there's no one there to keep you propped up.”

We’re complicit in everything. If I had a dollar for every time someone has told me they were a ‘good’ person, I’d have a sizeable bank account by now. Perhaps I could have named it the ‘good’ bank, and I could invest in ‘good’ companies, with ‘good’-sounding buzzwords like Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Maybe I could use the funds in my ‘good’ account to sponsor a needy child in their gender reassignment surgery or invest my little savings in stocks sure to succeed, focusing on big players in artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency, and surveillance technology. ‘It’s good. I’m good. We’re good.’

I am a PRO-Creationist. We are in the world and within this world is nature. Biology alert: when a man and a woman (who were ‘born that way’ and did not ‘reassign’ somewhere along the way) have sex and no barrier is ERECT-ED, the result could well be a human baby, given that the man has not ingested too much plastic, and other factors we’ll set aside for now. Not long ago, I had a conversation with a young man who described himself as an antinatalist. I had not given ANTI-NATALISM much thought before, but when I did, I saw that the history of antinatalist thought is long and rich. The Manicheans were dualists, the ‘heretical’ Bogomils and Cathars, were also neo-Gnostic dualists. The world is a bad place created by a demiurge, a lower god, an architect of sorts. Don’t have babies. According to Wiki, “Søren Kierkegaard believed that man enters this world by means of a crime, that their existence is a crime, and procreation is the fall which is the culmination of human egoism. According to him, Christianity exists to block the path of procreation; it is ‘a salvation but at the same time it is a stopping’ that ‘aims at stopping the whole continuation which leads to the permanence of this world.’”

According to one interpretation, Buddha states this, “Oblivious of the suffering to which life is subject, man begets children and is thus the cause of old age and death. If he would only realize what suffering he would add to by his act, he would desist from the procreation of children; and so stop the operation of old age and death.”

The Shakers started in 1747. Shakers are the United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing. ‘Mother Ann’ joined in 1758 and she claimed to have had many divine revelations regarding the Fall of Adam and Eve and the relationship of the Fall to sexual intercourse. Shakers practiced celibacy. (Does celibacy require practice?) Membership peaked in the 19^th century with a high of about 5,000 followers. By 2007, nine remained and with lifelong celibacy and little evangelism it is not surprising that as of 2025, only three Shakers remain in the world.

Even the political commentator and comedian Bill Mahar got in on the antinatal act. “I’m for the death penalty, I’m pro-abortion, I’m pro-assisted suicide, I’m pro-regular suicide. Anything that’ll get the traffic moving.”

Safe sex was supposed to be an analogy and a jumping off point to somewhere else, but before I go, the last word on ‘creation’ goes to Alan Watt from his Cutting Through book, volume 1. “This work is for the individual spirit, for those who know that this universe and this world was made by something greater and more wonderful than human minds could ever dream of. The simplicity of accepting this is the beginning of personal freedom. It is the beginning of LIFE. To LIVE instead of EXIST is a miracle in itself. Personal experience must be the guide, for everyone knows what is right or wrong. We are not animals. We have an intellect which makes us far more dangerous than any animal. The Creator gave us the ability to live and care for each other, accepting the world as it was made. The deviants were not satisfied and thought they “could improve it.” No demiurge found there.

At the end of the second Reality Check video, Alan Watt provided an excellent sequence of words and images to illustrate his statement that we are the microcosm of the macrocosm. He encouraged us to feed our minds. The title and idea of what to write about occurred to me this morning as I was preparing breakfast, to feed my body. I won’t bother with the details of each ingredient I peeled, cracked, and chopped, but what I was considering is the element of thought and care that goes into what I feed myself daily. I want to eat whole foods that are rich in nutrients, organic, if possible, not too caloric and certainly not toxic. I want food that fuels me, that feeds my brain and gives me energy but does not make me feel sluggish. I’ve never been obsessed with food or the cleanliness of it, because that is its own crazy-making trap. Is your food truly organic if it’s grown with fresh-sprayed chemicals dumped on us daily from above? Do you hydrate your garden with filtered water? Geoengineering has been going on for decades, and the fact that few discuss it makes it no less toxic. But given all that is out of my control, I do the best I can to avoid poisoning myself. No refined sugar, no fast food, read labels, avoid seed oils and corn syrup, et cetera.

Do I care for the temple of my body, but open my mind up for a series of one-night stands with talkers who have been who-knows-where and are carrying a host of DTIs or DTDs? Those are my neologistic acronyms for Digitally Transmitted Infections or Digitally Transmitted Diseases. Unfortunately, these are very real social diseases with deadly consequences for people who catch them. Carriers of DTDs have a built-in immunity to the toxins that spew from their mouths and pens. Some signs that a carrier has a good immune system include self-aggrandizement: ‘I have an unparalleled knowledge of the occult’ and self-congratulations: ‘You heard it here first.’ The carrier might be discerned by fearmongering or the mongering of ‘lifestyle supplements’ and gold and silver or crypto. But, once you’ve identified that a talker is carrying a DTD, run, don’t walk.

Over the years, people would talk to Alan about some DTD-riddled host with statements like, ‘Yes, I know that some of what he says is disinformation, but a lot of what he says is true, and helpful.’ Caution. Every droplet that spews from their mouth to your ears is toxic, by design. Allowing that into your psyche weakens you. At best, it’s time you could spend more wisely. At worst, it contributes to a very real danger we all encounter, distinguishing fact from fiction. A mind washed clean with the contrition of knowledge-of-your-complicity, sharpened with the file of soul-searching, polished shiny with the rag of interior reflection, is a mind unlikely to listen to a talker long enough to become terminally infected.

We are surrounded by Unsafe Talkers, and they are found holding forth on politics, religion, culture, conspiracy theories, and any number of other topics. I am sent many links on a regular basis, and if I partook of them all, that would make me promiscuous at best; at worst, fatally pox-ridden in my thinking and worldview. Sometimes, the UTs (Unsafe Talkers) have been sealed with a stamp of popularity, ‘I’m one of you, just trying to bring you truth and tell you like it is.’ Be very careful. Recently I heard a UT talking about Natural Law and morality. A few good ideas with a steady spray of toxic droplets. UT said that what matters is what comes out of your mouth, what actions you do, but as long as you refrain from speaking or acting on a thought that is not good, you have behaved morally and are blameless, and ‘not part of the problem.’

In Cutting Through, Alan Watt tells “In Free-masonic lore, the Great Architect of the Universe created everything from Thought which became Will (to be) which culminated in Order or Command to exist.” Somebody knows how powerful thoughts are. In describing the significance of the Catholic Pope’s hat Alan wrote, “Behind Clovis are the three unworthy craftsmen, Perverted Thought, Uncurbed Emotions and Destructive Actions.” I could go on with things that Alan Watt wrote about thought, but hopefully you get the drift. When you listen to an Unsafe Talker tell you that your thoughts don’t matter if you don’t act on them, you have just heard a lie from a matter-bound carrier of disease. Remember, the mind has no firewall. Be at least as careful about who gets in there as you are with whom you share your bed and bodily fluids.
