I am here, Thomas Jefferson.
In reading the book Up from Conservatism, you were struck by, and
painfully reminded of, the unhappy fact that our country, in comparison
to other what are called industrial democracies, seems almost at
the bottom. These other countries currently enjoy so many social
benefits for the people that the United States currently lacks.
So how can all these things you've been channeling for years now
be true? How can our country be that beacon of freedom and opportunity
we have been predicting?
You are seeing too much in the short term, that is, the present.
America is both the problem and the solution, the devil and the
angel. There is currently a battle for the soul of America that
mirrors humanity's battle between light and darkness.
Don't think that other more enlightened countries don't have their
struggle with light and darkness, for they all do. It's just that
the battle is currently taking a very intense form in the country
of your birth.
The answer to your question posed above lies in the future. That
is, the future will bring this greatness. Though it might sound
naive to say so, America is currently in transition. But this transition
had to be accompanied by this darkness in order for the light to
prevail.
The darkness is loud, aggressive, unfair, and domineering, while
the light is more quiet, self-assured, and truly trusting in God,
with a great deal of love, much of which is Divine Love. Both human
tendencies are strong in current America, and this fight has to
be played out, until the good shall prevail, and you will live to
see this triumph.
You do not know what the country will be like when the battle is
over. All you currently see is a huge ominous cloud covering the
sky. But life has shown you that every storm passes, followed by
the sun.
