“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

In those days neither did a sane, reasonable man give thought to sharing his wealth, or even consider the plight of the poorer classes. Not only was charity not given, its practical nature was not even considered. The archaic concept of God (at that time) nicely covered such matters. The poor were obviously sinful. Poverty was their penance, and it was considered a sacrilege to try to help those whom God had cursed. Animals were tortured in sport. Compassion for living things in males was regarded as a weakness to be plucked out. Women were scarcely thought of as human, except in very select circles.

(I made a quick mental count of the planets we now know to be in our solar system, for a total of nine, the same total given by Seth. Naturally, Seth’s data gave rise to many questions, but tonight wouldn’t see them answered.)

The evening’s material has come to a natural breaking-off point, but we have also reached some subjects that we have not discussed in previous sessions, and tonight’s session can serve as a preparation for later information. My heartiest good wishes to you both, and a fond good evening.
