About Me
Personal History, Theory of Life, and Mission
I was born in July of 1951. My father worked for Mobil Oil and we moved every 4 or 5 years, mostly around California. I attended Industrial High in Vanderbilt, TX and Sunny Hills High in Fullerton, CA. I graduated from UCLA in 1974 with a BS in Engineering, with emphasis on electrical engineering. I was commissioned as an officer in the United States Navy after four years in NROTC. I graduated from the Naval Nuclear Power School and Training and spent 2.5 years in the Navy, taking one cruise on the USS Sam Houston, SSBN 609 Gold Crew. I had an anxiety attack while preparing to go on my second cruise. I was temporarily assigned to shore duty in Pearl Harbor, HI, during which time, I attended yoga classes. After 3 months I decided to leave the Navy and join the Hawaii 3HO/Sikh/yogic ashram. I wore a turban, let my hair and beard grow, wore white garments, and lived the life of an American Sikh for 6 years. I participated in several “family businesses”: a health food store, movie theatres, and driving taxi. I decided to become a Chiropractor and finished my premed course at the University of Hawaii. I got married and a year later moved to LA. I worked in a boiler room at a 3HO business selling office supplies as the manager for a couple years. My wife left me in 1981. She recommended the EST training, a personal growth training seminar that moved me toward leaving the 3HO Sikh cult. My girlfriend/wife-to-be moved in with me. We went to visit Dr. Norman Easley in Portland, OR. He had inspired me to become a healer, and suggested attending the Naturopathic College in Portland. We moved and I began NCNM in 1982 and graduated in 1987 with a degree as a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine. I was licensed in 1989 and practiced actively through 2019.
During my time in Naturopathic College, I was introduced to oral cannabis, which caused me to go on an extreme mental-emotional roller coaster. I left my second wife, and proceeded to go through several relationships over a 3-year period. I studied and participated in many religions and teachings, cults, and gurus.
I had two very uncharacteristic altered state trips in March of 1987. For three years, I used high dose oral cannabis or psychedelics to induce spiritual insights to “find God.” On both of my final trips, I saw the same stable vision that lasted for hours. It was a galactic center (which symbolized God), surrounded by many stars (which symbolized points of consciousness created by/from/within the mind-spirit of God), connected by a fine strand (which symbolized the continuity between God and the Conscious Points).
I interpreted this vision to mean that God had created the universe from/by/with His Spirit-Mind, by declaring the Conscious Points into existence, and then using them as the substance of creation. I knew from my strong Christian upbringing and Bible study that this was the relationship between the Father and Son, God and the Word in John 1:1-4. In this vision, I saw how the Word could be both with God and be God. I believe the Word/The Son was His first creation, God declared the Son into existence as a complete duplicate of Himself. The Son was of the same substance and character as the father, but of independent will, yet submitted fully to honor and obey the Father. God gave the Son/Word the task of creating the physical universe. The Son/Word first declared zillions of Conscious Points into existence and thereby filled and created space. From this spiritual-consciousness “substance” the Son formed the physical and spiritual universe. The Son/Word created all things, and there was nothing created that He did not create. There is no consciousness or existence in the universe but the original consciousness/existence of God.
Every Conscious Point is a perspective God created that can look back at Himself (and all the other Conscious Points). Perhaps God prepared for the Big Bang by superimposing all the Conscious Points into an infinitely small point. When properly organized He initiated time and formed space, energy, and matter with the command, “Let there be light.”
I have looked at the subatomic Particle Zoo and the phenomena of physics to find patterns and unity. I believe He created four types of Conscious Points, distinguished by their four different of rule-sets. The Conscious Points obey/follow His rules of interaction with other Conscious Points and thereby manifest the laws of nature on the macroscopic level. All physical phenomena (interactions of mass and energy) are the result of the interaction of the Conscious Points.
The Big Bang produced a super-rapid expansion/inflation of the universe for a short period of time because the same-charge Conscious Points commanded repulsion beyond the speed of light due to their extreme initial proximity. This established the direction of expansion, which continues as all Conscious Points move away from each other. We see evidence of this expansion as the fabric of space produces the red shift seen in distant Galaxies.
God chose/assigned the perfect value for the rules of attraction and repulsion of the Conscious Points, which formed subatomic particles, and atoms. Carbon, the atom required for life, forms in the furnace of thermonuclear synthesis only in a universe with many specific physical constants. The odds of such finely tuned physical constants arising by chance, unguided by intelligence/God, are astronomically small. The community of science, has attempted to rationalize this fact by postulating the existence of a near-infinite number of universes, each with different physical constants, our universe is just one of many – a postulate which violates the principle of parsimony/Occam’s Razor.
In the early universe, the Conscious Points eventually separated sufficiently by their volumetric expansion to form the four elemental subatomic particles (electrons, positrons, up quarks and anti-up quarks). All other subatomic particles may form from a combination of these 4 elemental particles of mass and the ordering of the surrounding Conscious Points filling space.
Thus, the 30 subatomic particles of the Standard Model are possibly composed of Conscious Points variously organized from these 4 types of Conscious Points. Likewise, all the phenomena of Quantum Field Theory, Quantum Mechanics, Relativity, Particle Physics, and Newtonian Mechanics may result from the rules of relationship between the Conscious Points.
If the universe is filled with Conscious Points, which are in essence the spirit-mind of God, this fact will shape how we understand the purpose/meaning of life and how we choose our actions. If this paradigm is accurate/real/true, then God is closer than our breath. There is no place in which we can hide. We cannot secretly sin. If we are composed of the substance of His spirit-mind, then He lives us, He knows and feels our thoughts, feelings, and intents.
God is love, perfect, and good, having no shadow of turning. He gave the power to create to His Son, and He created all, including evil (whether directly or by free will rebellion). If God is all, then He feels/lives in every man, he knows us, and feels joy at our perfect actions and pain/displeasure/repulsion when we violate His will and way. He gave man free will. When we violate His Law/Way, He cannot abide with us, and must necessarily separate His attention and relationship.
None of us meet God’s standard for relationship with Him. We all require a mediator, a Savior, a bridge to reconnect and reconcile us with God. Jesus/the Son/the Word, as the creator of the universe, incarnated into His creation, was murdered by men acting under the influence of evil. He was without sin, and Evil had no right/no contract to take His life. With any sin, any violation of God’s perfect will, Evil is given the right to possess, to extract life-energy, and place in bondage and use for its pleasure, every soul who sins. Only the sinless man is free of this contract, and there was only one. The man who sins must pay with his life and blood. Jesus death can be appropriated, used as our just payment to cleanse our souls, and pay the debt justly/rightly/fairly owed to Evil. Jesus was born into the world to save men from their bondage to Evil. In our cleansing, we remake the connection broken by sin and can reestablish our relationship with God, our Heavenly Father.
I was raised as a Christian, but I had to prove/validate/understand the faith for myself as an adult. I lived out my name, I was a doubting Thomas. I demanded, expected proof. I spent many years searching for Truth. I saw goodness and good people in all of the world religions and lifestyles, but I was not satisfied by simply accepting the New Age meme that, “There are many paths up the mountain leading to God.”
After my vision in 1987, and recognition of how the universe truly is only composed of God’s spirit-mind substance, I was able to answer, to my satisfaction, the questions that drove me to search for answers in so many world religions. I understood, to an acceptable degree of certainty, 1) how the physical universe was created and its ultimate substance/nature, 2) in what way/how God and the Son are one, 3) Why Evil exists, and 4) why Jesus died on the cross for our sins. The Bible contained hints of all these answers, was consistent with my experience of the drama and morality of life, and was consistent with my study of science. This constellation of coincidence gave me sufficient validation to accept the Bible as God’s revelation, which pointed toward emulating the role model of Jesus as my Lord and Savior.
My strong scientific background biased me toward rationality. Given my nature, I required logical proof and evidence before I committed myself to any belief system. This seemed like an impossibly high barrier to overcome before embracing faith in the Christian paradigm. I pursued the answers, I wrestled with God, and He was gracious. He gave me the revelation, understanding, and insight I needed to accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior as an adult. I consider this transformation a miracle and thank the passionate prayers of my parents and the many people who loved me. I got what I asked for, and now I feel obligated to share the gift. I returned to the faith of my youth without compromising my commitment to logic. The revelation of Truth in the Bible was sufficient to place my faith, my integrity, and my standard of morality by which I lived. I have completely given my heart, mind, soul, and spirit to the manifesting of the will of God as revealed in the Bible.
My life went from uncertainty and confusion, to dynamic involvement with the moment-by-moment evolution of life. Life became miraculous, precious, filled with awe and joy. Every act is meaningful. I am dedicated to serving God in building His Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.
God feels my life as I feel it, and He suffers when I suffer, and He recoils in anger and hurt when I sin. He desires to feel love, and is satisfied when we choose to act according to His will and way. I believe the Bible is the revelation of His will and way for men, and the guidebook for our actions. God set the universe in motion to satisfy His desire for relationship and desire for freely given love. He created sufficient distance between His existence and our mind/soul to allow free will. He gave us the choice to love and serve Evil/other gods, or to live His way and in so doing to express our love for Him. He must remain mostly hidden, but present and tangible for those who seek Him. In this way, we daily express our love and relationship with Him as we reject Evil and choose His way, walk with Him, and satisfy His heart. He has created a satisfying love from a universe which contains only His spirit. The universe is the ultimate accomplishment of mastery, artistry, and beauty sculpted in the substance of His being.
My patients, friends, family, and especially my lovely wife, my companion in maturing in relationship with God since 1988, trained me in the ways of being a Godly man. I have learned to counsel patients in properly framing their issues and in the process of searching for answers together, we have gained much insight. I learned how to be a person in the many intense one-on-one relationship encounters of my 30 years in practice as a Naturopathic Physician. My fellow doctor-wife, Margo, has challenged me to stay true to the Bible as I developed my physics theory, my theology, and my theory of human relationships.
I began my interest in the political process in Naturopathic Medical School, as the student body president. I was on the legislative committee for our association for years in the 1990’s. Margo and I supported the OCA Measure 9 in 1992, with life altering consequences. After writing an essay on patriotism Margo suggested that I run for Oregon US Senate in 2004. I got 50,000 votes in the Primary and tied for second in a field of six candidates. I have immersed myself in the philosophical examination of conservative, libertarian, and Right-wing theory and the arguments/theory/perspective of the Left-wing and socialism.
I believe I have a unique perspective on life which could give many people the reasons needed to adopt a holy life of loving and living in God. I believe the nation needs good policies, it needs strong leadership in choosing personal holiness and Godly legislation. This is my commitment and passion. I am driven to serve my God, my fellow man, and my country.
I believe as President I will be able to influence America to move toward Godliness by reason, advocacy, and leadership. I decided to run when I saw the other GOP candidates discussing only policy and secular ideas. We have heard, and will hear, many excellent plans, strong personalities, and eloquent oratory. I am certain I can surround myself with wise counselors and administrators who will help craft good policy for the country. I am running because I want to help return America to Godliness. When we as a nation kneel before His throne and bow our heads to His Lordship, greatness will follow.
