Inversions



"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! - Isaiah 5:2"

Turn on the Tell-A-Vision to almost any program and you will eventually come across an inversion...both in the program content itself and in most of the commercials aired during the program breaks.

Go to the Doctor's office of your HMO, or most private general care practices and you will certainly be innundated with inversions regarding diet and the necessity of Big Pharma products to "be healthy."

Pick up any magazine at the checkout stand of any corporate FEED distributor, and you'll see inversions in bold fonts and photo shopped cover pics.

Same goes for all the marketing slogans and bylines printed on all of menus, packages, boxes and containers on the shelves of our Brave New World Order's grocery stores and restaurants feedlots.

Most billboards erected over the nation's highways and bi-ways and city avenues are usually selling us inversions as well.

Put on your THEY LIVE glasses and you will realize that the entire raison d'être of mass media's multi-variate messages and conventional wisdom promulgation are nothing more than promoting inversions as factual truth.

Selling us evil as good, cool, desirable, and health and wealth promoting, while selling us what is good as bland, boring, oppressive, regressive, repressive, uptight, and unhealthy.

It's no exaggeration to accept the idea that whatever THEY say we should do, go and do the exact opposite and you'll be better off for it.

I"ve jokingly told people that when the government heavily promotes something it thinks I should be doing, I should do the opposite.

No wait, I'm not joking.

Or better yet, ignore them completely and do what God says.

For a great discussion of "inversions" in the Bible, check out this website: http://bibleorigins.net/

Once you learn to see inversions, you see them almost everywhere. An inversion is a type of reframe.

Depending how you look at it, the Bible is a detail for detail "reframe" of all the main world mythologies. Or vice versa.
