One call from a New Yorker says he just heard on the TV and he’s been trying all day to get you, and some are sorry, they’re all sorry, cranking up, and he says this is only the first one, the big one is coming. And of course it puts her right into a tizzy, as though this little thing knows what he’s talking about. He didn’t predict this one, but he’s going to predict the next one. And then he gives his name and all the little degrees behind his name, and he teaches over at Caltech. So he is an authority. No one knows. No one knows. And whatever comes, let it come. And I tell you, let it come. You have experienced what only a very small section of our country experienced these last few years. And life is made up of experiences. So the serpent simply means to learn by experience. And we listened well, and the fruit tasted to it, and we came out into a world of experience. Because the journey is from innocence through experience to freedom. And that freedom is to awaken as God himself.975 ¶22
