Priestcrafting

Concerning “Legalese” and “Priest Crafting”

To show that the Legal and Pharmaceutical Industries INTENTIONALLY have made the laws and “medicine” non-comprehensible by the average person, an objective method of measuring the readability of English text must be discussed. English scholars use a scale known as the "Flesch Index" that measures the level of understanding necessary for an individual to comprehend the written English language. Newspapers are written at an average comprehension level of 7. The average high school graduate reads and understands at a level of 10. The average law school graduate reads and comprehends at a level of 15. The Internal Revenue Code ranks on this index at an average level of 31, with some specific provisions as high as 55. And the words that are used in the law have specific legal definitions that are different from the common English definitions. Since the laws that we are supposed to obey are written at a level that an individual of reasonable intelligence cannot understand, then perhaps we should be highly suspect of the law writer's motives. By making the law so difficult to comprehend, Congress has effectively removed our access to Justice and Equality under the Law.

Then, to add insult to injury, “they” have placed a “cloak of immunity” around themselves and make it impossible to “win” in their courtrooms:

“Prosecutors may knowingly file charges against innocent persons for a crime that never occurred.” Tenth Circuit Federal Court of Appeals in Norton v. Liddell, 620 F.2d 1375 (1980).

“Prosecutors are immune from lawsuit for conspiring with judges to determine outcome of judicial proceedings.” Ninth Circuit Federal Court of Appeals in Asheman v. Pope, 793 E.2d 1072 (1986).

"Although we know that Maggio cannot comply with the order, we must keep a straight face and pretend that he can, and must thus affirm orders which first direct Maggio to do an impossibility, and then punish him for refusal to perform it." Maggio v. Zeitz, 333 U.S. 56 (1948)

“Legalese,” word-smithing, and spin-doctoring are terms and phrases utilized almost exclusively by the legal and medical industries to isolate their “craft” from their unsuspecting “hosts” much like a leach or mosquito will, at first, inject an agent into their “victim” to deaden any pain and avoid detection of their parasitic actions.

The legal and medical professions have a vested interest in keeping the People ignorant of certain principles protecting the need for their "priestcraft." Priestcraft is "the craft of specialists who work to create the illusion that their craft is too complex to be understood by anyone else."

Priestcraft performs the basic intellectual function of obtaining popular support and even worship for those who administer it.

To facilitate this hidden feature in Law and Medicine, the legal and medical industry is written and spoken in Code through the use of Legalese and Priestcraft, wherein the meaning of the words do not follow the definitions of the same words used in common speech or as defined in our English Dictionaries. The primary purpose of such a deceptive “device” is to conceal the meaning, not to reveal it! This forever keeps the interpretation of the intent and application of Law and Medicine in the monopoly control of agents of government and medical institutions with the blessings of “their” Courts.

I am not saying that nothing good comes out of these two industries; I’m saying that both industries are “joined at the hip” with the factor of “PROFIT” and making themselves rich with ill-gotten gains. Remove the money and see how many “good works” they deliver. And, although both industries deal in the “fiction of deceptive make-believe and enforced ignorance,” the flesh and blood war stories are facts of life that bring the truth of pain, expense, and injustice to our own living room; yes, this is where the rubber meets the road.

Here’s several “clichés” other researchers and writers have used to describe “Legalese” and “Priestcraft”:

1. clothed in rhetoric seeking more power and authority over the entire citizenry;
2. a language foreign to the rules of English grammar;
3. ambiguous language; massively intricate;
4. circular-logic mumbo-jumbo
5. outer space language (artificial English);
6. complicated web usurping power with statutory terms of art;
7. fictitious and strange language;
8. designed to hide the truth;
9. asinine display of ****;
10. destined for those not familiar with the nuances of legal and medical jargon;
11. malicious vexation by encoded process; and,
12. cloak to disguise a collateral undertaking in U.S. funds.

“Legalese” is a language of “Priestcraft” all its own, written in “code” for the legal and medical professions. If you’re not a club member (American Bar Association) and possess your own “decoder ring” you’re out in the cold and at their “mercy.”

One thing is sure, when we (you, me, and some of the People) have been walked on enough, we’ll rise up out of the dust, throw the chains from our necks, and take back the gift our Creator gave us from the fictions and boogeymen.

Oh, by the way, how do you “stop” them? I suggest you determine their basic venue of “drawing blood” from you. You are either part of the problem or you’re part of the solution. If you sponsor the “red & blue” light brigade that constantly feeds the Babylonian Whore or other gubm’t leaches, you’re part of the problem. Help starve the Whore of Babylon and you’re part of the solution.
