Power of the Money Meme--God Meme

Discussion is continuing at New Economic Perspectives.  Today Randy Wray published his comments An Alternative Meme for Money, Part 5: A Spending Meme

I submitted this comment which did not immediately post to the forum.  I expect that it has key words that caused it to be brought to the attention of moderators for review prior to posting.

My comment:

There is a God meme in money being expressed clearly in the Platinum Coin idea as the Source and in this alternative meme analysis expressing the goodness of a source as spent that can never run out of goodness because it is Sovereign. 

Think about it.  The Shoe seems to fit.  It is a well established Meme that quickens the meme.  money is a tool for us to use to create goodness.  Some say money is a false god but on the other hand it has all the temporal characteristics of being all powerful and everlasting goodness. How long is that Platinum Coin going to last?  It is big enough to be divided and held by each and all of us to do good things without being expended, but in application it is spent.  Kind of a mystery how that happens.  It should only do good things but why do bad things happen?  That is a mystery too.

Think about it and extend the comparison to the God meme.  It seems to take me a along like writing on the wall.  It permeates everything being said about the Platinum Coin as well as what we wish the implementation of the concept of the coin as money to do for a better world.  What are we really talking about and there are a lot of good people talking about a powerful idea here and how to enlighten others.

Think about it.  Maybe a good meme pattern that is the model for explanation as well as the answer to creating a better system.  That is the power of creation.
