Shepherds of the People

In Homer’s Iliad, leaders are called “shepherds of the people”. In Zoroastrianism, the ruler of the world is called “the good shepherd”. In Islam and Christianity, the leaders are also called shepherds. Pastor literally means “shepherd”. photo sheepshearing.jpg

That is remarkable.

But even more remarkable is this. Hardly anyone ever OBJECTED to being called a sheep!

Without putting a value judgment on this; – simply to make an observation. All these cultures/religions were unanimous that the vast majority of people are sheep; they were open about this; and few “sheep” objected to it (let alone noticed it as odd)…

Those in alternative news and research agree with the above sources. The word “sheeple” is commonplace. But few actually “GET IT”.

Books and essays have their place for those who can handle it. But to affect the masses something different is needed.
