    Stewards of the Flame's Interests
General Full freedom of choice in health care.

No government compulsion or indoctrination on medical issues.

No involuntary psychiatric treatment. Abolishment of electroshock "therapy."

No microchip implants in humans.

Avoidance of all drugs except for serious illness.

Recognition of the potential power of the human mind to maintain health and facilitate self-healing.

Ackowledgement of so-called "paranormal" human abilities such as telepathy, clairvoyance, and psychokinesis.

The right to natural death, neither prolonged nor hastened, in old age.



"Formerly, people rushed to embrace totalitarian states. Now they rush to embrace the therapeutic state. When they discover that the therapeutic state is about tyranny, not therapy, it will be too late."
--Thomas Szasz, Pharmacracy, 2001


"Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive."
--C.S. Lewis, God in the Dock, 1970







Books A few of the many authors of relevant nonfiction about medical issues or psi: Peter R. Breggin, Thomas Szasz, Robert M. Sapolsky, Henry Dreher, Blair Justice, Dean Radin, Chris Carter, Richard S. Broughton, Charles T. Tart, Paul H. Smith, Lynne McTaggart.

About me:
New! Stewards of the Flame has won an Independent Publishers Book Award (IPPY) bronze medal in the Visionary Fiction category.

"A taut, well-paced science fiction work . . . that transcends the genre's traditional subdivisions and leads us into a world as relevant as today but as enthralling as tomorrow." —Paul H. Smith, author of Reading the Enemy’s Mind: Inside Star Gate—America’s Psychic Espionage Program

"A brave book . . . it can’t be faulted for challenging our comfort zone, when after all, that is one sure measure of worthwhile fiction.” --Carlos Aranaga, ScifiDimensions

"A brilliant twist on dystopianism. . . . Builds just the right amount of tension, and shows the stark reality of benevolent tyranny." --Anders Monsen, Prometheus

Poetic Profiles of a Mother and Son : CLAIBORN

THE HOPE OF TOMMORROW
BY: TREVOR CLAIBORN


I can’t take back what I’ve done in the past
Nor can I retaliate on all that’s been done to me,
At best I can learn from experiences I’ve had
Shake the chains of regret and be free,

The future has its own set of tests and trials
So why dwell upon yesterdays woes,
My road only changes if I’m willing to change it
The door of opportunity is never closed.

I must free up my psychological arms
To make space for better things to come
I should dispose of the junk from the past
And seek the source where all natural treasures come from.

We are the wardens of the prison in our minds
Condemned by guilt, regret and sorrow,
But I stay at peace, when I learn to release-
Yesterday, and appreciate the hope of tomorrow!

I have no knowledge of the paranormal and am skeptical of it.

However the free thinker and Libertarian in me values liberty. I will not censor other views and I will gladly befriend people with different views.

Reason & Respect in all we say and do.
