The Day the Earth Was Saved

How the earth and the human race were saved.

What is the CCCP? It's not what you think. That party dissolved long ago. This is the year 2012, 26 December 2012 to be exact. The Mayan Calendar had run out and all the prophecies had run out too. Not much of anything had happened, along those lines anyway. There had been great strides in technology especially in gene technology. There had also been long leaps in progressive politics going backwards. The new millennia had brought with it a new and improved dark ages. Combined with technology this new black period made the dark ages in the time of Martin Luther look like an ecstasy party. There was now one world wide agency that saw to it that everyone lived in the cleanest ashtray possible and there was no smoking allowed. The CCCP (The Christian Coalition Community Patriarch) was the New World Order. It was the perfect combination of religion and a one world government.

The bible thumpers had gotten their way and the most ridiculous laws, rules and regulations governed the people of the world. The bible was interpreted once again from a more modern but very idiotic literal viewpoint. All other religions had been made extinct. The CCCP was a Homeland Security Big Brother inflicted on the world masses to insure God and country was at the forefront of everyone's mind. And most important to recognize that evil in the form of art, music, culture and any other kind of communication that might help a society to grow was immediately banned in all shapes and forms. All of these things were blatantly illegal and punishable by death if you were lucky, brain transplant if you were not. There were so many laws. Most people were not aware that on the average they were breaking an average of a dozen laws a day. Too many laws to be totally enforced. But the main ones were definitely tracked.

Gene technology had made great strides. Discovery and manufacture of genes was happening daily. There were also laws governing gene technology that were legislated through bible interpretation of the time.

Two of these laws were kind of a paradox and had to be dealt with in a specific way. One of them was concerning abortion. There were no instances where abortion could be used. It was completely banned. The other part of the paradox was the law governing homosexuality. Same sex relations were considered an abomination and were punished severely by the CCCP. So serious was this blight on society that it had led scientists to the discovery of what they called the gay gene. The paradox was of course you could identify a gay baby before it was born. This fetus was already breaking the law even before birth. It couldn't be put to death because abortion was illegal. The masters of oppression were definitely confronted with a no win situation dilemma. The solution although temporary was the “Blue Moon Rehab Center”, a special place to try and rectify this problem. This moon research center was perfect for conducting all kinds of experiments that could be hidden from the public because they might contradict certain edicts of the CCCP.

At this particular time a couple living in Colorado, Amy and Leonard Roselyn were about to have a child. They were an average law abiding well educated, non-smoking; drink wine at dinner only, two income family. In these days having a baby required permission from one of the many arms of the CCCP. On this particular day, Amy and Leonard had kept an appointment for one of their pre-birth government tests. After waiting in the holding lounge for about 45 minutes, an official wearing a white coat with a CCCP badge came into the room with the results of their test. The test was both positive and negative in the sense that there was good news and bad news. The baby was to be a very healthy bouncing little boy. But maybe a little too bouncy. For also there was detected the gay gene in the baby boy's DNA. This situation crossed the spectrum of laws which required the baby to be taken away from the parents at birth and to be sent to a moon research center. Undeniably the parents were deeply saddened by this news but at the same time completely ready to comply because of the universal dumbed down disease they both had contracted from propaganda brainwashing. Little baby Zenus just born and named was quickly whisked off to the moon on the daily day shuttle.

The research center on the moon was a field of geodesic domes sprinkled unevenly and seemingly glued to a very desolate moon landscape. Little Zenus was checked into the first dome where in about 2 hours there was 68 gigabytes of data generated. All just government forms to be stored in the next geodesic dome which was nothing more than a building full of compact flash terabyte flip flops that just kept compressing data at light speed. It actually would take one and a half human lifetimes to sift through all the information stored in this dome.

What a charming little modern day fairytale. Such optimism is sorely needed in this time of religious brainwashing bigotry. Thanks for your imagination!
