It's the most wonderful time of the year again!

[timespacemessiah]

No, mundane. It is not wonderful. We've been over this last year: the idea of the Christmas season is one that the world needs, but the actual practices of that season are lacking due to faulty human spirit. If we may be rid of emotion, will, and knowledge of how those two work, the world could celebrate Christmas the way it was truly meant to be - with peace on Earth and goodwill to man. No more strife, no more avarice, no more commercialism, and no more trivial celebrations within families. If Team Galactic succeeds in our plans, Christmas this year shall not come from the heart - it shall come for the good of the world!

It fascinates me, doppelganger, that much is made over the loss of the religious aspects of the holiday and yet so many fail to follow the paths laid out by those religions, even to the point of ignoring and denying some of the religions entirely.

Such ignorance. Though I do not adhere to any of their beliefs, the underlying idea that we ought to aid each other is one I respect, yet they cling to the idea of their beliefs while violating those basic structures.

...so you intent to rid the world of knowledge simply of the other aspects of spirit. Knowledge must be maintained in order for the population to sustain itself, as well as a controlled degree of will, but it must be as a self-maintaining machine. This is as well respectable.

Though those religious often speak of a pure humanity possessing will, knowledge, and emotion, yet only falling once they discover how to become evil. That is associated with knowledge, yet that is foolishness. Wickedness is based in emotion--greed, anger, hatred, as well as the insistence that everything is fine, which is based in happiness.

Though I've no cause to tell you this.

"Put the Christ in Christmas" they say, yet I rarely ever see them make an effort to do that. Most focus is spent on people's own wants for this time of year instead. It's ridiculous human behavior.

Knowledge of what is good in my new world and what was wrong with the old world will still be required, but the knowledge of how emotions and willfulness could cloud one's thinking and subsequent actions has to be gone. If such a thing is not a concept amongst human beings anymore, it can never happen again.

Happiness is merely an illusion. Greed, anger, hatred, fear, pride - those are the true emotions of the human heart. Those emotions must be purged from the heart and soul of humanity - of the world - forever.

No, not at all.

A wonderful speech, sir! I agree wholeheartedly!

[timespacemessiah]

It was not a speech, Mars. It was the harsh truth.

[galactic_bluedude]

Of course your plans will succeed, sir. I have no doubt of that at all.

[timespacemessiah]

Good. Never doubt.
