If you think, feel, believe, know or
understand that time is a real, actual thing, AND if you feel, believe, know or
understand that time has no beginning or end, then you are an Eternalist.
All conjecture of the meanings beyond this are personal and social ramifications. As such they may entice the Eternalist to unite with others of like mind to gather knowledge and support one another against biased laws and practices used against them by those who have been conditioned by bias and dogma. Included in social aspects of the Eternalist Faith are the symbol, related art and ceremonies, all designed for the enjoyment, entertainment and enlightenment of all who share a basic understanding of time.

Coming; WINTERMAS, Jan 8th, 2017
Wintermas falls on the second Sunday of January. It is a celebration of life and the Tempus force within it, as well as a time for gifts of comfort to help family and friends through the winter.

The Art of Deflection.
Tip;
When practicing the art of deflection, it is customary and WISE to link the original subject with the subject one is deflecting to. Referencing the original topic will make the deflective topic appear more tempting (especially with the inference of sex) and logical.

Tempus is entropy.
Everybody knows the truth
about time; it’s within us from birth, from before
birth, actually. But they may not be
familiar with the concept of Tempus. Tempus is the being of time, the living
consciousness. In this way, Tempus is all things, in motion. Including the
physical and the ethereal worlds.
Tempus is entropy; but with a difference; entropy as science is
cold, unfeeling and unaware. Entropy as Tempus is the mind, the heart, the
consciousness and the mystery of all phenomena.
So, when we pray, who is
listening?
Whether they know it or
not, all prayers; Christian, Muslim,
Hindu, whatever, have been directed to, and heard by Tempus. Only Tempus.

The Nature of All Prayer
You might call your god Yahweh or Allah or Zeus, but only the highest power, TEMPUS hears your prayers. The others are imaginary.
Two new works on the spiritual study of Time.
What does the phrase mean 'spiritual study of Time'? Yes, you can examine Time empirically, logically and scientifically and it will still be Eternalism. Yet the width of the spiritual side includes the deep meditations and prayers, the creative and imaginative wanderings of the mind when contemplating the vastness of Eternity.
A dream can become reality, if Time allows.
From Book Two of The Tempus Testament: If Time Allows. "There will always be divisions, equal parts opposing one
another. There will always be political divides, with each side not
understanding the other and wondering why the opposition would vote against
their own self-interests."

The Myth of the Invisible Line and the Mystery of Trump's Success.
The 'invisible line' myth is a lot like the myth of Christianity and Islam, and works on the same principle; that the desire to alter reality is made physical by physical symbols in the imagination.
We begin by asking ourselves; what is war? What is it about? What is the thing people form armies to fight each other over? Countries, mostly; land masses that we have divided by invisible lines, borders. These are not arbitrary lines, we tell ourselves. We enjoy thinking that these lines divide us because we are different from those on the other side of the imaginary line.
The desire for significant action is strong in our species. 'Significant' must include danger, possible death, destruction and creation. Risk makes the heart pump faster and reminds us that we are alive. Drama is sought by those who feel life is agitation and stagnation is death. Are they wrong? No, but a higher perspective sees that striking a happy medium is a better, purer and real situation than the extremes. A war is an extreme.
One man with a melodramatic tv 'reality' show made his reputation by being a hard-liner who could easily fire whoever he chose in an almost callous, cold way. To some, this seemed an admirable trait, the sign of a strong man of conviction toward some greater good. To others, he seemed like a megalomaniacal spoiled rich man-child whose goal was more money and more witless nubile women surrounding him.
Yet who he is is not as important as the first major proposition he made when he ran for president. He claimed that if elected he would build a huge wall nearly 2000 miles long to stop people in a neighboring country from coming into his country. The reasons for this are not as important, in this article, as the symbolism of this wall is in the minds of those who feel they have an emotional, even a spiritual investment in the belief of the invisible line.
By making the invisible line an actual, physical thing, Trump tapped into their unconscious desires, that their fears of those outside of their country were justified by proof that there is an actual divide. Just as their actual churches symbolize the gods and saviors they have imagined, so a wall would appease them of their desires and fears, and further solidify their concept of life in this universe.

Further visions.
Eternalism is NOT about worshipping time (Tempus). It is about making a friend and ally of time, a cooperation to gain knowledge.

Let's NOT take myth-based religions into the FUTURE...
..., if we do there will be NO FUTURE for our species.
They create generation after generation of DENIERS of the reality of life and opt instead for an imaginary 'pie in the sky'.

What if I told you
that a thunderbolt has been inside your body your entire life, but you've never felt it? The effect felt by suddenly UNDERSTANDING that Eternity is REAL may be different to each person, but the intensity is equal to that thunderbolt, and only increases with TIME.

Permutations; it all comes back.
At first, Eternalism may seem to be the religion for poets, artists, explorers and dreamers in general. because it stirs the imagination. Think about Eternity and Tempus WILL touch you.

'Speculative' atheism.
They do exist. They are imaginative, and can say 'what if...'. You can be an Eternalist and NOT believe in Tempus Est Deus, only feel that eternity MUST be real.

Thank Tempus, thank yourself.
Nothing 'just happened'. Tempus sets up a whole series of events, a sequence that, once known, can be examined by logic and altered in the present to create change in the future. We can make an situation better by using out Tempus-given intelligence to do it. We can thank ourselves or we can thank Tempus, it's the same thing.

How to overcome the fear of eternity.
Sometimes it feels so great, so overwhelmingly intense, like looking at the stars on a clear night, almost incomprehensible. But it's there, It IS. It's always been and it always will be. Forever is real. No end; Eternity.
We invent devils, angels, mythologies, theologies and short termed histories of nations that seem vast in time compared to our lives, but are in reality drops in an ocean that is a drop in a larger ocean, and so on. 'I am less than nothing,' we shudder. The books with our names are certain to fall to dust with age.
The only recourse, other than crippling he mind with denial, is to embrace Eternity, to own it in your heart and mind fully, and to accept myriad of ramifications it holds for every conscious being; that we will be BORN AGAIN a hundred thousand times and more, in every conceivable way and form. And to advance in KNOWLEDGE in the spirit of betterment and building LOVE is the ONLY viable path to the strength needed to OVERCOME all fears, as we learn that Tempus is not there to KILL, but to GIVE LIFE, over and over again, until we have learned how to be ONE with ETERNITY.

Prospectus and Practices/Rituals Deadline
My goal is to create two more one-sheets by July 30. They will be 'Eternalism Prospectus' and 'Eternalism Practices and Rituals'. Taken with the recently released 'Eternalism Core Beliefs', they will be the summation of our religion, and a guide towards the creation of our first Temple.
Thanks to all who have been patient about these developments.

I am currently working on a concise explanation of Eternalism that I
will call our 'Core Beliefs'. I'm hoping it will be influential and draw more
people who are frustrated by the dominance of mythology based religions in the
world, and that it will be seen as a viable alternative.
My goal is to have it up, and printed as a one-page handout, by June 4, 2016. It will be no larger than four paragraphs, around 800 words. A person could read it in a coffee shop in a few minutes. The goal is that any thinking person might understand Eternalism and say 'My core beliefs are not far from this. I can agree with this.'
If this is achieved Eternalism has a chance as a viable religion of the future.
