For mercy and truth have met together, and righteousness and bliss have kissed one another! — Isak Dinesen

Rife's key realization was that there's no difference between modern culture and Sumerian. We have a huge workforce that is illiterate or alliterate and relies on TV-which is sort of an oral tradition.
