More on the Holy Triumvirate
The Holy Post-Modern Triumvirate of the Three Network Generation.
Yes, this is a new religion. It is in the process of being revealed and explained. We do not acknowledge the ‘ownership’ of our gods.’ Give to Popeye that which is Popeye’s and give to the companies of men, that which is theirs.
With the coming of the information age God has the means to communicate with humans through the revelations of multiple messengers who collaborate through the hand of God to produce divine messages to those who are willing to allow themselves to be spoken too.
God has chosen the image that best suits God within the realm of human collaboration and he has chosen the image of Popeye. It is no coincidence that Popeye should use the same phrase as God. For Popeye is God. His message about the human condition is not to be ignored. “I am that I am” “I yam what I yam” . His generosity towards those who he meets extends even to the forgiveness of those who have wronged him again and again. Yet Popeye is no pacifist claiming that one should turn the other cheek. Popeye usually comes out on top because he turns off his perception of being the victim and instead tunes into achieving his goals in the ideal circumstances. The lessons of Popeye as he battles lust, greed, envy and the other deadly sins can teach us to prevail and not to cave in to circumstances that seem beyond our control.
Wimpy is the equivalent of Bacchus.
Olive is Aphrodite, Goddess of Love.
Brutus/Bluto are the twin temptations of all humans; excess and violence. Swea’Pea is the desire each of us has to follow the path that is set before us. In the innocence of a child, we see that what usually happens when one follows that nudge from the universe is that one arrives at a pleasant revelation or growth point.
Yogi Bear is the God of nature. Nature outside of and within humans. It is Yogi who is the God of the environment and the God of anarchic nature and the human within each of us that still belongs in nature. Yogi must find balance with the ranger and must know when the hunters will come. He treads a fine line between selfish and altruistic. He is the God of food. The Ranger represents authority and order in human affairs. The hunters represent the world as conditioned by the material world of human beings. Yogi’s message is that the human must learn to accept itself as a fundamental part of nature.
Boo Boo does not exist, the insertion of Boo boo into the original Yogi message is an attempt to confuse the message of Yogi. You must look past Boo Boo.
Felix the Cat is the God of the ephemeral. He controls perception, illusion, economics, magic, and spiritual manifestation. It is the magic bag of Felix that lets human beings come into the understanding of how the Gods are communicating. His nemesis are the Professor (or academic hardening of thought patterns), Rock Bottom (the purveyor of imaginary economies and political systems), the Master Cylinder (the proponent of mankind as their own savior through the harnessing of energy and machines rather than looking inward.)
Why does God choose to manifest to humans in many aspects? Humans are incapable of comprehending the totality of God. If we were to comprehend God for just an instant we would disappear from this reality.
