Why Jesus is the Real Savior
Honoring Easter: But Why Jesus? Because Only Christ Offers Universal Salvation
INTRODUCTION: Christ as Messiah: Happy Easter! But why do Christians claim that only Jesus Christ offers eternal salvation -- when the world overflows with ‘saviors’? The Bible states every other savior is a copy, a hoax, a faux hero, an outright fraud. This is a jarring statement! But the biblical claim is that Jesus appeared as a unique, sacrificial, brilliant, loving and theologically exhaustive savior such that only God on earth as man could achieve.
We note a number of other religions propound pseudo saviors, found in the other biblically oriented religions – Islam & Judaism, etc. So why do these fail? For those alarmed at such exclusive claims, we honor the devotees of these religions while confronting them by pointing out the heresies involved. From the Christian perspective, on this Easter, we assert there is only one means to Salvation – Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Matthew on the Messiah: Here, at the beginning of Matthew 1, Jesus is directly claimed the Messiah: “This is the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah the son of David, the son of Abraham:”
And Matthew 18-19: “18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. 19 Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.”
Then Matthew finishes the thought in 20-23: 20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (or, “God with us”).
Christ’s Overall Claims of Jesus as Messiah, from Crosswalk:
The term "messiah" is the translation of the Hebrew term masiah, which is derived from the verb masah, meaning to smear or anoint. The term is used in the Old Testament of kings and priests, who were consecrated to office by the ceremony of anointing. It is applied to the priest only as an adjective--"the anointed priest”.
The New Testament writers, evangelists, and apostles give no reason to doubt that Jesus is the Messiah, or in New Testament language, the Christ. He came, born of Abrahamic and Davidic lineage ( Matt 1:2-16 ; Luke 2:4-15 ). John the Baptist identified Jesus as the Messiah by referring to the wider dimension: "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" ( John 1:29 ). Jesus was the One who would bring judgment as well as life by the Spirit of God ( Matt 3:1-12 ). The evangelists record that Jesus was anointed by the Spirit when he was baptized. Jesus proclaimed himself as the Messiah in Nazareth ( Luke 4:16-22 ) and at Jacob's well to the Samaritan woman ( John 4:24-25 ).
See The Top 40 Messianic Prophecies
Jewish Messianic History: The Jews have searched for their Messiah for thousands of years, and still seek in vain. Despite many false messiahs, there is currently a promising new Messiah candidate, “Israeli Rabbi Says He’s Already Holding Meetings With Messiah” -- Sept 9, 2022.” See the description in the Jewish Virtual Library on the Messiah:
Jewish tradition affirms at least 5 things about the Messiah. He will: be a descendant of King David, gain sovereignty over the land of Israel, gather the Jews there from the four corners of the earth, restore them to full observance of Torah law, and, as a grand finale, bring peace to the whole world. Concerning the more difficult tasks some prophets assign him, such as Isaiah’s vision of a messianic age in which the wolf shall dwell with the lamb and the calf with the young lion (Isaiah 11:6).
Isaiah’s Trinitarian Messiah: He mentions the coming Messiah, in the most trinitarian statement, from Isaiah 9:6 --
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this.
Jewish False Messiahs: Simon Bar Kohkba
Jesus was rejected by Jews since he was offered as the Lamb of God, not the violent Davidic savior coming as a warrior to destroy Rome and reassert Israel. See Judaism 101: The term "mashiach" literally means "the anointed one," and refers to the ancient practice of anointing kings with oil when they took the throne. The mashiach is the one who will be anointed as king in the End of Days.”
But after murdering Jesus, Israel was later presented with a tantalizing messianic candidate -- tall, charismatic, handsome, brilliant, persuasive and a true military leader – Simon bar Kokhbar. But Kokhbar attacked Rome, precipitating the largest disaster in Jewish history up to the Holocaust, triggering its complete annihilation and Diaspora.
Simon bar Kokhba (Hebrew: שמעון בר כוכבא, also transliterated as Bar Kokhva or Bar Kochba) was a messianic Jewish leader who led a major revolt against the Roman Empire in 132 C.E., establishing an independent Jewish state of Israel which he ruled for three years as Nasi ("prince," or "president"). His state was conquered by the Romans in 135 C.E. following a bloody two-year war.
Originally named ben Kosiba (בן כוזיבא), he was given the surname Bar Kokhba, meaning "Son of the Star," by the leading Jewish sage Rabbi Akiva, who believed him to be the promised Messiah. The eventual failure of Bar Kokhba’s revolt resulted in the deaths of possibly hundreds of thousands of Jews and the expulsion of the Jews from Jerusalem.
Islam: Mahdi as Messiah
The Islamic savior is named the Mahdi. All Muslim thought of the end times involves the Mahdi, an eschatological messianic savior in Islam. And yet the Madhi is not in the Quran, so is the Mahdi arguably a Christ figure grafted into Islam to solve the problem of the apparent lack of pity in Islamic theology? Well, since Muhammad’s revelation was in 610, any biblical messiah came from previous Jewish & Christian ideas.
But as developed by Shia Islam, called “Twelvers,” the Mahdi is the only alleged descendent of Muhammad was born -- but then, within 6 years he enters a swift occultation, or hibernation, until the end times start. Later, Sunni Islam adopts this figure. See Armstrong, Karen. Islam: A Short History, describing this time-traveling leader:
Abu al-Qasim Muhammad: also known as the Hidden Imam. He was the Twelfth Imam of the Shiah, who was said to have gone into hiding in 874 to save his life; in 934 his “Occultation” was declared: God, it was said, had miraculously concealed the imam and he could make no further direct contact with Shiis. Shortly before the Last Judgement, he would return as the Mahdi to inaugurate a golden age of justice and peace, having destroyed the enemies of God.
See PBS Pilgrimage to Karbala:
Twelver Shia offers the story of the hidden imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi, or simply the “mahdi,” meaning “divinely guided one.” In 874 A.D., the six-year-old son of the eleventh imam went into hiding to protect himself from the persecution of the reigning Abbasid empire. The Shia believe that he hid himself in a cave below a mosque in Samarra; this cave is blocked by a gate that the Shia call “Bab-al Ghayba,” or the “Gate of Occultation.” This is one of the most sacred sites in Shi’a Islam, and the faithful gather here to pray for the return of the twelfth imam. The occultation of the mahdi, known as “ghaybah” in Arabic, will end with his return to the world for the Last Judgment. This period will be marked by violent upheavals and attacks upon the faithful, but in the end, the mahdi will deliver the world to peace.
And so, the Muslim Mahdi presents a number of historical, theological and logical conundrums for Islam. Since the Mahdi is contained in no Islamic origin documents, is he just a watered down and revenge-minded Jesus-figure? Second, does the Mahdi supersede Muhammad as he appears to do in his overall powers? Third, is the Mahdi a savior, or an Anti-Christ figure, since Christ bows down to him, condemns all his Christian followers and then joins the Mahdi to slaughter all non-Muslims?
See the New World Encyclopedia:
In Islamic eschatology the Mahdi (مهدي transliteration: Mahdī, also Mehdi; "Guided One") is the prophesied redeemer of Islam. The advent of Mahdi is not a universally accepted concept in Islam and among those that accept the Mahdi there are basic differences among different schools of about the timing and nature of his advent and guidance. Most Muslims believe the Mahdi will change the world into a perfect and just Islamic society alongside Jesus before Yaum al-Qiyamah (literally "Day of the Resurrection" or "Day of the Standing"). The "hdi" of "Mahdi" refers to the Arabic root "هدی" which means "to guide." "Mahdi" is also an Arabic name. The Mahdi will assist Jesus in defeating the Dajjal, who represents evil. The concept of Mahdi is not explicitly mentioned in the Qu'ran, but the sayings of Muhammad on Imam Mahdi abounds. For some Muslims, the events of the end time and figures such as the Mahdi and the Dajjal are real. The first historical recorded reference to a movement using the name of Mahdi is al-Mukhtar's rebellion against the Umayyad Caliphate in 686, almost 50 years after Muhammad's death.

What Odds Jesus Fulfilled the Prophecies: From his book, Is the Bible Really a Message from God?, author Ralph Muncaster “connected the dots” of the major Old Testament scriptures regarding Israel’s Messiah, its long-anticipated deliverer, savior and king. Muncaster calculates the chances that one man could fulfill 48 biblical prophecies of the Messiah. What are the odds? Muncaster concluded: The estimated odds of just the above 48 prophecies being fulfilled in the life of one man have been calculated as one in 10157. This would be equivalent to winning 22 lotteries in a row!”
CONCLUSION: Peter Confesses Jesus as the Christ:
Matthew 16: 13-20 -- 13 Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock 2 I will build my church, and the gates of hell 3 shall not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed 4 in heaven.” 20 Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.

Modern Palestinians are NOT Descended From Ancient Philistines -- Implications?
Best Idea to End Hamas Fight: Build New, 21st Century City in Jordan/Saudi Territory
One Enduring Gaza Truth?: The most enduring truth of the current unrest between modern Palestinians and the Jews is this: The fight is between two ancient residents who both equally have rights to the land. Correct? Actually, you’ll be amazed that this idea, now prevalent around the globe -- is certainly false.
Philistines Were Cretan: The Jews, as descendants from the ancient Hebrews, and so have a strong claim to Israel. But the Palestinians are not descended directly from ancient Philistines. So are their claims still equally legitimate? For example, the most famous Palestinian since Goliath, Yasser Arafat was born in Egypt. Does this fact shock you? And does it change your opinion of the current war? Ironically, and to understand the graft in Gaza, Arafat died a billionaire at $5.5 Billion!!
Biblical Story: First, let’s recall who the ancient Philistines were, that most modern folk simply assume were the forebears of today’s Palastinians. See Biblical History Daily, “Who Were the Philistines, and Where Did They Come From?”
“In the Bible, the Philistines are remembered as an uncircumcised people with advanced technology and a formidable military (Judges 14:3; 1 Samuel 13:19–20; Exodus 13:17). The Philistines frequently encroached on Israelite territory, which led to some battles, including the famous clash between David, the Israelite, and Goliath, the Philistine (1 Samuel 17). They were condemned for being idol worshipers (1 Samuel 5:1–5) and soothsayers (Isaiah 2:6). In short, the Philistines are portrayed quite negatively in the Bible.”
But, as to their origins, according to the Biblical Archeology Society, in an essay titled, Piece by Piece: Exploring the Origins of the Philistines, the scholarly consensus is that the earliest Philistines were actually derived from Crete, according to their DNA and also cultural remains, such as pottery styles.
See the Jewish Virtual Library, which states:
“The Philistines are referred to as the descendants of the Casluchim in Genesis 10:14 and Exodus 13:17. Known as a seafaring nation, the Philistines were a non-Semitic people who left Crete and arrived in Canaan at the beginning of the 12th century B.C.E. The Philistines inhabited the Mediterranean coast of Canaan during the period of the Book of Judges. They founded five principalities - Gaza, Asheklon, Ashdod, Ekron, and Gath.”
Source of Philistines: But the story of the history of the Philistines takes even more turns. Consider points from an October 9, 2023 essay: “Are the Palestinians Descendants of the Ancient Philistines?” by Caleb Howells, which relates that the Cretan Philistines were actually destroyed twice before the modern age:
“In the years surrounding 600 BCE, King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon waged war against the Levant. Part of this campaign involved an attack against Philistia. During this attack, he devastated the Philistine nation. Some of their most important cities were utterly destroyed. Over the following decades, the Philistines limped on as a nation.
However, by the fifth century BCE, it appears that all historical and archaeological traces of the Philistines had disappeared. They may have survived as a group for some time thereafter, but Alexander the Great’s conquests in the following century certainly eliminated whatever trace of that nation was left.”
Howells goes onto to answer the question of where modern Palestinians derive from, stating,
“Because the term ‘Palestinians’ emerged in modern times -- simply as a designation for those who lived in Palestine -- it originally included a variety of ethnicities. However, most people living in Palestine when this distinct nationality began to emerge were Arabs. Therefore, the majority of Palestinians are Arabs. In fact, most of them are Muslim Arabs, but Christian Arabs in Palestine also identify as Palestinians.”
And Got Questions says this:
Until Israel was re-established as a nation in 1948, Palestine was the term for the territory between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. The word Palestinian was applied to anyone living in that area. As one of the longest continually inhabited places on earth, this region has changed political ownership numerous times and has been a nexus of migration for many different cultures. The modern-day “Palestinians” represent a mixture of local inhabitants and many other groups of Muslims brought from Bosnia, the Balkans, and the Caucasus by the Turks in the 16th to 19th centuries; and from the Sudan, Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon by the British in the 20th century.
The term Palestinian did not take on its current popular meaning until the mid-20th century. In common use today, the term Palestinian is primarily applied to non-Jewish, Arabic-speaking residents of this region. This usage is highly controversial, however, since for most of human history a “Palestinian” was simply a person born or living in that land. When used in reference only to non-Jews, it implies an historical claim to the territory in opposition to Israel. In reality, the concept of Palestine as a nation-state in opposition to Israel or as a racial group predating the presence of Jewish inhabitants is historically false.
Thoughts: So, what conclusions should we draw from these facts? First, these facts obliterate the notion that the folks in Gaza are descendants from ancient Israel’s territory. Second, therefore, that Gaza is not an ancient property belonging to these modern folks. Third, given the incessant warring between the two, Palestinians could be relocated to outside of the State of Israel.
From War to Peace: Now as the current rulers of Gaza, the unhinged Hamas war machine, has promised permanent war against Israel till all are slaughtered. So, here is a proposition. It hasn’t worked out for modern Palestinians to live inside Israel. Further, as ancient Philistines were derived from Greeks, and as they were all slaughtered and obliterated, anyway, let’s put a set of new eyes on these problems. Let’s think outside the box. It’s time to protect Palestinians and give them a chance for success.
Relocation: The answer is to remove the residents of Gaza and relocate them nearby, but outside of Israel, in a gleaming and state of the art, brand new city, with every amenity and comfort possible. A new country, not run by terrorists and thieves, but by sincere pacifists who pledge peace with Israel. Now this is something to finally celebrate after 4,000 years of war.
TELOSA: Consider this current description from 2021 in USA, Plans for $400-billion new city in the American desert unveiled:
The cleanliness of Tokyo, the diversity of New York and the social services of Stockholm: Billionaire Marc Lore has outlined his vision for a 5-million-person “new city in America” and appointed a world-famous architect to design it. Now, he just needs somewhere to build it – and $400 billion in funding.
The former Walmart executive last week unveiled plans for Telosa, a sustainable metropolis that he hopes to create, from scratch, in the American desert. The ambitious 150,000-acre proposal promises eco-friendly architecture, sustainable energy production and a purportedly drought-resistant water system. A so-called “15-minute city design” will allow residents to access their workplaces, schools and amenities within a quarter-hour commute of their homes. Lore stated, “The mission of Telosa is to create a more equitable and sustainable future. That’s our North Star.”
How to Finance: So how would the fundraising go for such a massive project? First, consider Telosa will be supported by the following: “Funding will come from “various sources including private investors, philanthropists, federal and state grants, and economic development subsidies.” Well, since the entire globe appears to be protesting currently, then certainly most would be interested in aiding the Palestinians.
First World Finance: Now, there are currently 66 first world countries on our globe. If each were to offer $1 Billion, this would be enough to build the start of a first world city for 5 million, if each country then offered a billion a year for ten years, for $660 billion. And since the entire world is criticizing the loss of innocent life, they should gladly accept a plan which will immediately stop the killings, which now total over 11,000 Palestinians. And while no Muslim country has stepped up to offer a new place to live, if Egypt, Iran and others gave temporary shelter while the new city is built, we can create permanent peace.
From Muslims & Brothers: In terms of the land, Saudi Arabia and Jordan both appear to have vast tracts of unpeopled land, and given their mutual religion. It’s a good foundation. They could choose a plot which was between the nations to defray costs, and illustrate the love of Islam for the poor and downtrodden. It would be very cheap for Arabia & Jordan to donate the land since they own it and it’s possibly unused.
From Insane Danger to Prosperity & Peace: Now, many may say that this is unfair to remove the Palestinians from their rightful lands. But as the above proves, these lands are not their inheritance or birthright. And so, this insistence on fighting to the bitter end brings only an unnerving and bloody harvest. There must be a better way, and there is…let’s build the Palestinians new home, which I will call Neo-Philistine.
Middle East Supercity: It will be the most technically advanced city, move them in and also block all terrorist factions while banning guns from all. It will be the safest city in the world. And as time passes, the wars will be forgotten while the Palestinians' new city -- just might become a monstrous economic force.

Does Islamic Law of War Really Allow the Rape & Murder of Women?
Captured Females & Islamic Law of War Results in Adultery, Forced Sex, Conversion by Sword
Celebrating Rape & Murder: A lovely young lady was captured by Hamas Oct 7, ‘23. at an Israeli music festival. This pacifist German Israeli, Shani Louk -- who once lived in Portland, Ore was grabbed, beaten and raped before being slaughtered. So badly mauled, one of her legs was broken backwards at the knee. Her corpse was then driven among terrorists by truck, who approached the vehicle to spit upon her while others rode her corpse. Why?
God’s Murder of Defenseless, non-Combatants? The most trenchant question is, How does a religion supposedly based on love and peace, foster such mindless cruelty? Then celebrate afterwards?!! And, how does such conduct provide the perfect world Muslims often talk about evolving after they subjugate their enemies? Finally, What did this rape and murder of an unarmed and defenseless lady -- who maybe weighed 100 lbs -- achieve for God? Writes the Daily Mail:
A woman whose lifeless and semi-naked body was paraded in the back of a Hamas pick-up truck as militants sat on top of her and jeered following their violent incursion was last night identified as a German tattoo artist.
Shani Louk, 30, was at a music festival for peace when seized by terrorists as they attacked Israel in a surprise assault, leaving at least 480 people dead & 3,200 injured. Her body was filmed splayed in the back of a truck, with one leg at an unnatural angle, terrorists sitting around it and supporters of the group cheering, running alongside and spitting on her.
Women Killed by Rape? Further, “Israeli Security Minister Tom Tugendhat describes some of the events seen then in Israel - including children and elderly "murdered in their homes", and people "brutally raped to death" - as "quite literally by some of the most horrific, barbaric terrorists that we've seen in generations".” So does Islam allow the beheading of babies, elderly shot in their cars, or women raped then broken to death? See Sexual Violation in Islamic Law: Substance, Evidence, and Procedure, “Male sexual violence against women and girls is a major problem in contemporary Muslim societies.”
Begging the Question of Islam: These events demand an answer to the Question – Is such brutal and cruel treatment allowed under Shariah Law and Rules of Jihad? Please continue to have this question answered. Hamas is a political religious organization trained for violence, and prepped for Jihad. So is Islam a religion of peace, as is repeatedly claimed, by such as George W Bush?? Or does its teachings and history allow brutal treatment to non-Muslims?
See Jihad: A Study in Perpetual War Against the West:
Defining Jihad: In most Muslim history, jihad normally refers to the duty to fight the unbeliever. This is explained in my article, September 11th, Jihad & the Doctrine of Perpetual War:
“It has been repeatedly stated the term "Jihad" in Islam is more properly defined as "holy struggle" than "holy war." Reuven Firestone, in Jihad, The Origin of Holy War in Islam, points out that the word "Jihad" has no direct connection to war. Yet, as Firestone elucidates, Jihad is a holy struggle most often expressed in terms of violent attack against Islam's enemies, stating, When the word is used without qualifiers, like "of the heart," or "of the word," it is universally understood as war on behalf of Islam (equivalent of Jihad "of the sword"--jihad al-sayf), and the merits of engaging in such Jihad are described plentifully in the most respected religious works.””
Robin Wright, in Sacred Rage, The Wrath of Militant Islam, defines jihad like this:
“In the thirteen-century old lexicon of Islam, jihad is a struggle against an aggressive foreign force or an offensive in the name of the faith. The Koran incites Muslims to battles, for those who believe in God should fight for him. It is "an obligation on the true believer, because only in a free country can there be righteous self-respect." In the 7th century, jihad was considered by early Muslims to be the most effective means of conquering lands for the new Muslim empire.”
Some General Laws of Jihad: Please note the following excerpted rules associated with the Quran, summarized from, Legal Jihad in Quran & Early Islam: The truth about the rules of Islamic warfare:
1. Conquered women and children may be enslaved;
2. Women captives are sometimes forced to marry their Muslim masters, regardless of the marital status of the women. That is, the masters are allowed to have sex with the enslaved sex objects;
3. Captured enemies may be killed, ransomed by money or by exchange, enslaved, or released freely;
4. The conquered are allowed (or forced) to convert;
Quran’s Position on Captured Ladies: Quran 4:24 “And forbidden to you are wedded wives of other people except those who have fallen in your hands (as prisoners of war).” “It is lawful for Muslims to marry women prisoners of war even when their husbands are still alive.” This led to Muslim soldiers capturing females and quickly raping these women, then sometimes keeping them as concubines or selling them.
Law of Marriage & Sex: Now, consider laws of marriage and sex under Shariah law. See Islamic Law of Marriage:
Concubines: Under the law of Jihad, any woman who has been captured by Muslims then becomes war booty, her marriages void, used as a concubine, or sexual slaves. A right to hold slaves is still believed by some Muslims per Qur'an. Further, sexual slavery still occurs in the Muslim world. In fact, a well-respected scholar recently stated slavery was never formally condemned by Islam, either: “Although Islam is much credited for moderating the age-old institution of slavery...it has never preached the abolition of slavery as a doctrine.”
Husband's Right of Corporal Punishment: A husband may physically punish his wife under Shari'ah law. This punishment must not be excessive, meaning no permanent marks or damage. Further, it should not be done in front of the children. See Qur'an 4, Al-Nisa "The Women" in sura 34: “If you experience rebellion from the women, you shall first talk to them, then deserting them in bed, then you may beat them..”
Marital Rape: Under Muslim law, the wife must submit to the man's request for sex, instantaneouly and unconditionally. Technically, the concept of "marital rape" is meaningless under Shari'ah. The Qur'an states men may demand sex at any time, comparing the wife's body to farmland ready for plowing and seed. The Qur'an says in Sura 2
"The Cow," suras 222-223: “...ye may approach them in any manner, time, or place ordained for you by Allah...Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will; but do some good act for your souls beforehand; and fear Allah…”
Now consider the Jihad law of captured women, which are slaves, by definition.
Sex with slave-girls in times of war: Now consider the Jihad law of ensnared women, which are slaves, by definition. After Muhammad emigrated from Mecca to Medina, he brought his policy of sex between male Muslims and their female slaves to his new city of Medina. He added the rule of enslaving women prisoners of war and permitting his soldiers to have sex with them. (see here.) Now, sex slavery is still permitted: Why is Slavery Allowed in Islam and Why is it Permitted for a Man to have Sex with a Female Slave.
Prophetic Sex Drive: Muhammad had a strong sex drive. He slept with slaves and impregnated one. He also took his adopted son’s wife, Zaynab bint Jaḥsh, cancelling the entire doctrine of adoption. Muhammad even took a very young girl, Aisha, child of his lieutenant Abu-Bakr. She was 6 years old when the marriage was conducted and 9 years old when it was consummated. Described by chief early biographer, Bukhari: “that the Prophet (ﷺ) married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old. Hisham said: I have been informed that `Aisha remained with the Prophet (ﷺ) for nine years (i.e. till his death).”
CONCLUSION: Anyone can see that Islam still allows for the rape of the enslaved women captured during war. In this setting, as prisoners of war, women could be beaten if they resisted. Further, Islam generally allows the killing of the enemy during war. And a Muslim Jihad, or Islamic War would be any where Believers fight with non-Muslims. A Hamas official verified that everything done during the Oct 7th massacre was good and must be repeated, and that Hamas would keep attacking until all the Jews were murdered, or driven into the sea.
From the Quran’s Chapter 5: Dinner Table: “[5.33] The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement.”
Finally, consider the following taken from the Hamas Covenent: The 1988 charter states, “Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it.” & “The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say, “O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.””

The Attack on Israel is Religious, Meant to Awaken Islamic Messiah Mahdi
Biden Admin Fuels Islamic Eschatology by Blindly Funding a ‘Necessary Apocalypse’
It's entirely understandable that most Westerners believe the current 2023 attack by Hamas on Israel is simply lust for revenge and anger over Gaza’s conditions. But, wait! Instead, it's astounding to know the ultimate impulse in Iran funding Hamas is to usher in the age of the Mahdi, as their mighty savior. This war to utterly destroy Israel is now led by Iran’s Shia Islam and seeks to bring the End of Days. So, Biden’s gift of $6 billion to Iran guaranteed war would result, given their theology. See below…
Shia Muslims Believe Massive War Saves World: that unless a colossal war comes to engage Israel, then their savior, the Mahdi, cannot reappear to bring the peace and blessings promised for 14 centuries.. The Iranians behind these attacks feel uniquely placed to render the end times, achieved by the return of the Mahdi from deep sleep. Iranians are almost wholly Shia Muslim, who believe in a mystical character named the Mahdi:
Twelver Shia offers the story of the hidden imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi, or simply the “mahdi,” meaning “divinely guided one.” In 874 A.D., the six-year-old son of the eleventh imam went into hiding to protect himself from the persecution of the reigning Abbasid empire. The Shia believe that he hid himself in a cave below a mosque in Samarra; this cave is blocked by a gate that the Shia call “Bab-al Ghayba,” or the “Gate of Occultation.” This is one of the most sacred sites in Shi’a Islam, and the faithful gather here to pray for the return of the twelfth imam. The occultation of the mahdi, known as “ghaybah” in Arabic, will end with his return to the world for the Last Judgment. This period will be marked by violent upheavals and attacks upon the faithful, but in the end, the mahdi will deliver the world to peace.
The Fervid Desire of Iran to release the curative of the pseudo-Christ Mahdi, to heal the world and bring peace by, ironically, destroying all non Muslims, as often explained by past Iranian President Ahmadinejad:
“ Ex-President Ahmadinejad said the "Islamic Republic has no other mission but to prepare for the establishment of a world government . . . as the Imam [Mahdi] runs and manages the universe." And the "Mahdavi perception [Mahdism] and view are the perfect method for the administration and direction of the world." He defined Mahdism as the "defining strategy of the Islamic Republic," a "comprehensive plan and strategic policy," and a "political regime and world view." Within that context, it's determined the Mahdi's advent is "inevitable" but also that it can be "accelerated" through human action.
Peace by Death: It’s important to accept that the Islamic path to peace is achieved by killing every person who is not Muslim. Consider, in 1,400 AD, Muslim Warlord Tamerlane killed 90,000 non-Muslim men in one day, taking similar numbers of women into sexual slavery. See: “The Apocalypse & Islam”
Muslims Borrowed ideas and facts from other religions. For instance, The Mahdi himself is never mentioned in the Quran, yet the Mahdi is an epic figure in both Shia and Sunni Muslim religion.
See The Coming Final Battle, regarding Muslim end times views:
“While Muslim apocalyptic thought is diverse & complex, most narratives contain some elements easily recognized by Christians and Jews: at an undetermined time in the future the world will end, a messianic figure will return to the earth, and God will pass judgment on all people, justly relegating some to heaven and some to hell.”
The Quran “Is not an apocalyptic book,” so Muslims are “forced to turn to supplementary materials—including the words attributed to Muhammad, the Bible, global conspiracy theories about Judaism, stories of UFO abductions, and theories about the Bermuda Triangle—when discussing “the confused period” that comes before these final events.”
See The Mahdi: The History of the Prophesized Figure”:
‘The Mahdi’s hiding in a “Major Occultation is the most important theological event for Shi'a Muslims since the death of the Prophet Mohammed, and it also represents the single most important theological break between the Shi'a and the Sunni.” & “Unlike all other men (including Prophet Mohammed), the Mahdi did not die but was instead withdrawn or hidden from the world of humanity, remaining until Allah was ready for him to return and usher in the End of Days.”
The Mahdi is Not From the Quran, or in earliest literature, yet evolved into becoming the equivalent to Christ. The above source states,
"In Imamite Shi'ism, belief in messianic Imam (12th & last Imam) becomes not only a basic tenet of the creed, but also the foundation on which the entire spiritual edifice of the Imamite religion rests." In turn, he became an unparalleled spiritual figure; & simultaneously still serving as spiritual guide for the faithful - hence his title "The Imam of Time" - and also the future messianic Mahdi who will return and judge the world for its crimes, ushering in an era of perfect worship and governance.”
Islam’s Confusingly Distorted Bible Characters: who are re-written to fit a Muslim Mahdi narrative, presented at the End Times, strangely described below:
“In the final days, Muslim scholars hold, Jesus comes again. But He’s a Muslim version of Jesus, Isa Al-Maseeh, a genuinely “false prophet” as described in Revelation, performing miraculous signs while being worshiped. This Muslim “Isa” is the last in a series of prophets, all testifying to Muhammad and God’s final revelation. Zealous for Islam, Isa Al-Maseeh descends and destroys all crosses, converts Christians from the most abominable sins against Alla, and kills all Christians and others who refuse to convert to Islam.”
When Will the Mahdi Appear? According to Iranian Twelver eschatology, when the Dajji, or Anti-Christ appears. “There’s also an anti-Christ – Ad-Dajjal in Arabic. He’ll claim to be the Messiah, but is a liar. He’s a charismatic leader of the Jews, followed by them, but will finally be slaughtered by the Muslim Jesus.”
Dajji is Devil: The Dajji is described as follows: “The Prophet said (about the Dajjal) that he is one eyed, his right eye is as if a protruding out grape. The Dajjal will be blind from the left eye and upon his eye would be a thick mark (or covering); on his forehead would be written (the three letters) ka fa ra or kafir -- or ‘Infidel’.” And “He will be a young man with a ruddy complexion, with thick curly hair, blind or defective in the right eye, his left eye will be covered with a thick piece of flesh growing at the edge of his eye.”
Dajjal’s character:
The Dajjal, False Messiah or Antichrist, plays a key role in Muslim eschatology. He’s ‘the apocalyptic opponent of Jesus’, appearing in the last days. He’s ‘a malevolent creature in human form.’ His arrival will follow the appearance of the Mahdi’. He claims to be Jesus, and his forces attack the Mahdi, while almost defeating him when the real Jesus descends from heaven. Working together, Jesus & Mahdi destroy the Dajjal and his army. After some time, Jesus and the Mahdi will die and the various signs of the end times will culminate in the Resurrection and the Day of Judgment. See Dajjal: The Anti-Christ: Research, Critical Analysis…
One Teaching Claims Syria as the final place of the Muslim Apocalypse War of the Mahdi: “Dabiq is the name of a small town in northern Syria. According to Muslim eschatological tradition it will be the site of a major battle that will be fought between Muslims and Christian invaders, a battle that will be one of the signs that the end-times have begun.”
“The final apocalyptic battles occur north of Israel in the land of Magog (Rev. 20:7) during the reign of the final caliph, the Mahdi, who will rule over all Islam. The Mahdi wears a crown while on a white horse, matching Revelation 6:2. And with help of Isa Al-Maseeh (Muslim Jesus) will defeat Dajjal, resulting in a world where Islam finally is the only religion, all other religions being banished from the face of the earth.”
Now, 670 million Muslims, including an overwhelming majority in the Middle East and western Asia, expect to see the Mahdi in their lifetimes—sometime during the first half of the 21st century. See Bad Moon Rising: Islam, Armageddon…
Are you religious, do you believe God is behind all these events? And how about treachery and religious support for war? And why does Joe Biden & Co. gather the very elements needed for war against Israel, including funding, official betrayal, nuclear programs and western propagandization? We need intervention by patriots and clear headed leaders, and the mercy of God to stave off this attempt top kick-start Islamic WWIII.

“Feelings” & Chaos: How Leftism Uses Irrationality to Overturn Society
Hunt for Trump Unleashed by Emotivism: Belief that Emotions Signal Truth
Burning, Pyrrhic Leftism: It’s become increasingly clear that Leftism is committed to winning the political war by doubling down on chaos -- so-called a pyrrhic victory, where both parties must end up destroyed. Why? First, because this is leadership by emotion, which breeds chaos. Second, liberals panic while observing how human nature inevitably turns towards logic and clarity, whenever possible, but especially during disasters.
Human Chaos: Especially when human chaos itself drives failure, fear and collapse. But notice how Leftism, and all Woke, Gender & Trans advocates riff off an emotional core which can’t be defeated because it’s not based on logic or core arguments built upon syllogisms, arguing truth. And so these people can’t be defeated in traditional debate.
Tsunamis of Brainwashing: While this essay is not a Trump defense, consider how Donald’s presidential win bred a Krakatoa-eruption level of propaganda. Trump’s early menace had to be immediately dosed with outlandish and wholly false accusations, so Donald would be transformed into a devil. Nonetheless, Trump’s radical efficiency and persuasion was so impressive, it had to be specifically singled out for destruction.
Craven Leftist Sabotage: But notice the diseased center -- mindless US residents became so marinated in coordinated propaganda, that -- driven by tidal waves of media brainwashing, many now instinctively revolt. There can be no defying Big Mama Govt. This dreadful metastasized matriarchy hunts every red-blooded, liberty-based citizen!
Propaganda + Postmodernism = US Lib Zombie Army: It’s crucial we understand that there is a cataract, a gaping hole left behind by the collapsing Church. Here are the lost and teeming millions who have no firm beliefs, ready for a propaganda immersion to build a creed to fight for. Just consider how many of our young have adapted to Woke & Trans beliefs, whom -- despite these lacking a logical foundation -- consider them a holy cause worthy of screaming violent resistance to save these new “rights.” Recall, Postmodernism is the ‘current’ claim that no “truth” exists, so the subsequent battle for control allows leftists to assert their will. Nietzsche taught this in his infamous Will to Power. But the “truth” that there is no truth can’t be accurate as it self-destructs.
Emotivism: Emotion as Truth: Now, bear in mind that those who have jettisoned the truth need a replacement. And the easiest and most satisfying approach is to take the emotions one feels and turn this into a philosophical belief system. This is CLEARLY what the gargantuan sea of US Marxists have done. But also explains why these modern leftists cannot defend their beliefs. So in public forums they attack, bark, foam at the mouth and howl. But cannot make a coherent argument, so scorn, obfuscation & menace takes the place of debate. See the theory of Emotivism:
Emotivism is the view that ethical judgments are simply expressions of approval or disapproval. For the emotivist, the statement “this is good” means roughly “I approve of this” or “hurrah for this”. Most people would agree that ethical statements contain expressions of approval or disapproval. But the claim of emotivism is stronger. It asserts such statements are nothing other than expressions of preference.
Dem’s Poisonous Intellectual Brood: So, we can see from the above argument that the current philosophy espoused by US Democrats is wholly fallacious. But Dems know this and realize their only hope is to mis-educate American kids into their pernicious and wholly corrupt creed. And so US kids in public schools are taught the basics of all leftism, and tropes like Woksim and Gender & Race dogma, without any logic. America will be lucky to dodge collapse.
Now consider the following leftist intellectual errors…
Instant Womanhood: Leftism depends upon readying the public for --- always the next wild change, at the blink of an eye. Consider -- if Socialists can train us to accept this one variable, then everything else follows. For example, women once had rights. But, what happens when these hardfought rights are then swallowed by any man instantly claiming to transition to female? If continued, women’s sports will be destroyed, which is already occurring.
Feminism Triumphs, Then Dies: Today, we’re forced to view Feminism’s death in exchange for the Trans Follies, for only one can be true. Results are that binary gender is dismantled. So, tossing out logic, any kid who imagined themselves as the opposite gender for one second must be doused with hormones and desexed. Human Nature hung on the gallows!
Speaking of Weird: Consider Trump is increasingly prosecuted for many different acts: akin to spitting on sidewalks for a felony. Contra, Joe & Hunter Biden rake in millions from America’s enemies, lie their A***s off, while the DOJ yawns, high-fives & laughs! But every indignity against the Donald justifies the next!
Guillotine Time: For the psychology behind this, consider David Hume’s Is/Ought Fallacy, where just because something is being done, that alone proves it’s acceptable. Also called the Guillotine Argument. See Skeptic’s -- Is/Ought Fallacy:
Ever since the Enlightenment philosopher David Hume outlined the “Is-Ought” problem—that we cannot derive an ought from an is, or we cannot determine the way something ought to be morally based on the way things are…people have struggled to figure out on what basis should moral values be grounded. Of course, theists argue that God is that grounding, but what if you don’t believe in God? Is everything relative, including murder?
Death of Science: Again, how easily were Americans cowed into obeisance over a bug, while Tony Faucci lied for years about The Virus. Outcome: a weaponized CDC w/ warning against criticizing the COVID cult. The mask & shutdown brouhaha is over, but the anti-science cult rolls on, as displayed in countless Global Warming, and now Trans warnings. But since a majority of published, peer-reviewed scientific papers’ claims cannot be reproduced, doesn’t this mean propaganda supplants science? See, Why Most Published Research Findings Are False -- by 70%!!
War Against Trump is Destroying America’s Legal System: It’s understood that for Democrats to have any chance of keeping the White House, Donald Trump must be stopped. But is it really worth breaking the US Legal System to stop one single person?
Loss of Rule of Law = Death of Truth: Somehow, when law is watered down to become just another victim of the Postmodern plague, then Truth and God are also victims. Why? Well, consider reality comes from somewhere -- that is, human’s ability to view society and turn it into understanding and theory. And the biblical God, whether taken as Truth, or just a theory -- easily creates reality in a unified format. Therefore, God as the author of law & the definer of truth, when he is pushed out of the picture, dies -- just as Nietszche predicted.
Death of Decalogue: Now, when these elements of Truth & reality die, then quite obviously respect & reverence for, and belief in God die as well. Consider, for example, a culture ignorant of the 10 Commandments and so opposed to these teachings? The aftermath is a loss of legal structure, or our Constitution. Now, imagine existing without our precious Bill of Rights!
Death by Nihilism: As a result of losing a belief in God, and therefore the teachings of His law, and its application to human society, humanity dies. We saw this in USSR after Marxism took over. This is Nihilism, or the death of rules:
Nihilism is the belief that all values are baseless and that nothing can be known or communicated. It is often associated with extreme pessimism and a radical skepticism that condemns existence. A true nihilist would believe in nothing, have no loyalties, and no purpose other than, perhaps, an impulse to destroy. While few philosophers would claim to be nihilists, nihilism is most often associated with Friedrich Nietzsche who argued that its corrosive effects would eventually destroy all moral, religious, and metaphysical convictions and precipitate the greatest crisis in human history.
What happened before might happen again, as we see the supposed Great Reset being arraigned to bring all humans back to socialism. But at least, let’s admit, we’re at one of the most perilous times in human history. Further, the average American now dislikes Capitalism and opines America was a big mistake. So what will be the result of this Neo-Marxist Revolution?!!

Biden's Choice After GOP Impeachment/ Hunter Indictment is Elementary: “Pardon Me!”
Grifter Family Bidens Reach Critical Mass After Decades of Smug Graft
A Bad Week: In the last 7 days, Joe Biden’s been handed a GOP House impeachment declaration while his son Hunter was blasted with three weapons indictments. And so you may be asking yourself – what's next, for the aged, shuffling, hair sniffer? But friends, is it really that hard to figure out? There appears only one possibly safe exit for this ignoble clan, which could also save ne'er-do-well Hunter. Further, to kill further investigations that would doom the Dems. In other words, The Democrats could not survive a full investigation into Joe & Hunter.
First Son Hunter, aka Peer Gynt: Joe's best friend, son Hunter, is looking down the barrel at years of Fed hard time. So, anything done at this late point in Joe’s life must honor his son. Even in his advanced decrepitude, Joe senses this may be the only honorable thing left to do for the poor, drug bedeviled boy. For if Joe pardons his step-and-fetchit dog-faced son for ignoble deeds done for Joe’s own benefit, wouldn’t that pay a debt? It may also seal off many crimes associated with Hunter, the Peer Gynt of presidential progeny. It also helps build a fire-break against Joe’s impeachment.
Fictional Peer Gynt is a charming but lazy and arrogant peasant youth who leaves home to seek his fortune. Confident of success, he has one disastrous adventure after another. In one, he attends the wedding of a wealthy young woman he himself might have married. There he meets Solveig, who falls in love with him. He impulsively abducts the bride from her wedding celebration and subsequently abandons her. He then embarks on a series of fantastic voyages around the world, finding wealth and fame but never happiness. Then he comes home, a failure.
Biden Family Disaster: Now, Joe has an enormous family problem. According to the US House, at least 9 different members of the Biden family received millions of dollars in largesse from Hunter's activities. And the graft goes far beyond Joe, aka the Big Guy. And so Joe must Pardon his entire family, because if not – they could all easily be sucked into a prosecution based on this crime. Or, worse – be flipped as witnesses.
“We found 170 major bank violations. These were from six major banks, and they alleged that the Bidens were, among other things, money laundering, and receiving suspicious wires from state-owned entities. […] The bank is alleging that the Bidens took a suspicious wire from the Chinese government, and then laundered it through these shell companies. Many laws were broken there.”
Joe Self Pardon: Now, Joe also certainly needs to pardon himself because, if he doesn't save himself, the rest is irrelevant. But Joe lies, constantly. See – “Joe Biden Lied At Least 16 Times About His Family’s Business Schemes.” If every guilty Biden was pardoned it might be what is necessary to entirely end the investigation into the family. Joe should do this right before he quits so that he gets the benefit of the doubt for any other crimes that were lastly discovered.
So, so let's get this straight. Joe pardons his entire family including his son, and finally himself. This multi-Biden pardon would then stop the trials, and might end the possibility of an investigation exposing the massive Biden graft. Just a criminal tribe, selling nothing but access. But let’s be clear that a pardon does not force the House to end an investigation to better understand how badly the American government was compromised by these events.
Damaged & Exposed Party: But, the Democrat Party has to be deeply damaged by this presidential failure. They are exposed for running a mentally diminished candidate, unfit the day he walked into office. Joe will be totally exposed as being so far off his rocker as to be sitting on the moon and sucking his thumb without any connection to reality. And we must also admit that Joe seems to battle confabulation, or congenital lying, everyday. Joe undoubtedly enfolded his naturally dishonest nature into his deteriorating memory, giving birth to hyper-confabulation.
Kamala, Ms. Future Disaster: Now, the plot thickens with Kamala Herris since there is no strategy of keeping the First Woman & First Woman of Color from the Oval Offices. So Kamala must be brought into the US Presidency to appease the feminists and racial boosters. Then Kamal must be removed so that another Democrat who has a chance of winning can come in and run as an incumbent. This may turn out to be impossible, but in a leftist perfect world, would be accomplished. This asinine and totally avoidable travesty was preordained after the election, and merely highlights that deciding to run Joe Biden w/ Kamala was a harebrained plan which failed because it had to.
Now here's another aspect of this developing scene, which completely exposes the difference between real and fake crimes, a la Trump versus Biden. Of course, the Trump legal Puppet Theater was designed to diminish, impoverish, incarcerate and destroy Trump. But now Biden has so quickly been exposed, that – as the Donald’s cases begin to bog down, the Dems are left in laughingstock territory again.
Biden, a man driven insane by his own pride, who’s now watched his own skills fail for years, must make the ultimate sacrifice. Joe must trade any hope of being seen as a good or even competent president down the commode and protect his family. The impeachment could expose Joe & the worst president ever and his family a pack of hyenas. There’s no other option.
Remember Oedipus:
In the Greek play Oedipus Rex by Sophocles, the title character is a tragic hero. In the play, Oedipus suffers from the most common tragic flaw – the condition of hubris, aka pride. This pride draws King Oedipus down a fatal path. Oedipus sets out to rid the kingdom of a terrible plague. A prophecy tells him he can do so if he punishes the man who killed the previous king. Unbeknownst to him, the previous king, Laius, was someone Oedipus unknowingly killed many years earlier. He punishes himself by gouging out his own eyes, which ends the plague.
In the final analysis, the Biden Family’s fall, which must occur before the new year, only heightens the sense of incompetence and venality and seeking revenge by the Democrats. The Democrats thought they could treat the talented and brave Trump like a fool and quickly remove him from the presidency by confounding him with the Russian Hoax. But, their doomed mission to destroy Trump, like a Greek Play, is the seed of their own demise. And now that Joe Biden, the blind king, must use his own sword to save his family, especially his catastrophically misguided son, Prince Hunter.

Obvious Question: If You Still Support Joe Biden, Are You Just a Marxist, or Utterly Deranged?
Ask Yourself: What did Biden Give China & Russia -- As They Run War Games Next to Alaska?
Since Democrats own the Mainstream Media -- lock, stock & barrel -- we have no excuse for allowing a run by AN INCOMPETENT PREZ & VP in 2020. Add towering lummox, Sen Fetterman, unable to finish a single sentence. But now, as China & Russia run war games next to Alaska, how will Joe & Kam respond if provoked? See, China and Russia Stage Naval Operations Near Alaska, Triggering US Naval Response.
2 Fake Impeachments: Further, and after 2 faked impeachments, and countless daily lies spewed against Trump by the Democrat Party, who wouldn’t believe the Dems didn’t try to rig the last election? Yet, most GOP members continue sitting on their hands. But America is now in mortal danger because conservatives didn’t do enough to support our candidates in the last election -- ‘nuff said!
Undeterred Donald: Meanwhile, Donald Trump, the only American unafraid of media and Dems, runs from arraignments, to hearings, and back while campaigning. Folks, Donald is dying by a thousand papercuts as Dems file one nonsensical prosecution after another to stop him from running & winning again in 2024. So how can Americans support The Don
Surviving Democrats: So, after the Republican House proved beyond any doubt that Joe and Hunter received millions of dollars from our worst enemies, what did these commie nations receive in return? It was something rather than nothing. But what? So – let's ask ourselves whether the war games occurring right now are an obvious reminder that they have the goods on the Bidens. They have us over a barrel. But how do the mainstream media think they’re going to survive an attack if China and Russia go after us. And. If there's one thing that encourages violence, it’s enfeeblement. In history, has there ever been a weaker president, Vice president than Joe and Kam?
How We Gort Here... So, how did we get to this tenuous spot in US history? Let’s recollect. 1st. The original idea was that Joe Biden was totally harmless, an upgrade from Trump. 2nd. The mainstream media cannot investigate anyone who's a liberal. Therefore, Joe was lulled into a side crime career, which has now combusted. 3rd. The convenient fact that even totally incompetent politicians are better than Republicans. 4th. The only goal in the Democratic Party is winning power. And any ‘holy cause’ fought for is only temporary in service to that goal. Ergo, Feminism morphs into Trans. 5th. According to the Left, long ago it was deemed America must fall for international Leftism, aka, Marxism.
Globalism, as Always! Sadly, in terms of sovereignty, America will be debased by “socialists” who seek absolutely control of the globe to... “Save the World.” Of course, since most will resist once the screws are tightened, we will then watch the complete enslavement of the world. It’s only obvious. Therefore, the Democrats are opposed to every precious thing that the Founders fought for. And so the only way to save the world is to disband the Democrat Party & then De-Democrat-Partyize USA. Because, the alternative is a complete sabotage and abandonment of Americanism. And letting the entire world be thrown to the wolves in the name of Karl Marx. The proof? That every time Democrats get power, law and order go out the window.
Biden & Death of Christianity: Consider now, the real issue undergirding all this chaos. The death of Christianity in the West. Now the reason “Liberalism” is so effective is that it’s built on a desacralized Christianity which then must be eliminated. Leftism begins to address the poor and needy. The government becomes the God figure. And any who resists the government must be punished or eliminated. Consider Comte’s godless Religion of Humanity.
Loss of Independent Law: But the colossal mistake is that, in eliminating God in general, once must specifically remove the Bible and Yahweh, and all associated things. So then, from where do human laws derive? A common suggestion is to build mankind's laws upon the Golden Rule. The issue then is this is taken from Jesus’ own sermons. From Christ’s Sermon on the Mount: “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.” Matthew 7:12.
Great Alfred’s Laws: Further, England’s best King – Alfred the Great, used the Bible as the foundation for his legendary Common Law which arguably grew into history’s best legal system. So, in trying to build a fair legal system that attempted to defend all people, why throw that out after marvelous results and start over? Sadly, this is because Leftists decided ANY taint of religion must be destroyed, regardless how beneficent.
Only Govt = No Law: Now, once government adopts atheistic humanism, there’s no Ten Commandments to argue against liquidation of pesky people. For instance, according to JR Rummel, and his study of Democide – or Death by Government, Chairman Mao killed about 77 million. See, Democrats: The Party of Death and Destruction.
Democrats, Killing Society: Currently, Democrats labor under the theory that anything done in the service of remaking the world for socialism/Marxism/communism is great, because from this the world itself will be saved. So, recently the economic disaster of COVID based on lies is wholly acceptable for as the economy shrinks, the poor are saved from modern slavery, while the deified state passes out largess. Again, our porous border delivers justice, because America’s capitalism deprives the world. And it’s not defensible that the poor of other countries were not born here. It’s not their fault they're impoverished. Ultimately, the world cannot thrive while a big, selfish bully like America exists. So all destruction of USA creates future global justice. See, Biden trying to 'destroy' US, GOP senator warns.
Enter From Left -- Nihilism: Then, a new menace enters the picture. The fact is, Nihilism – or the belief that no rules exist – is an almost irresistible reaction a blank universe, unbothered by a deity. Here is the IEP definition:
“Nihilism is the belief that all values are baseless and that nothing can be known or communicated. It is often associated with extreme pessimism and a radical skepticism that condemns existence. A true nihilist would believe in nothing, have no loyalties, and no purpose other than, perhaps, an impulse to destroy. While few philosophers would claim to be nihilists, nihilism is most often associated with Friedrich Nietzsche who argued that its corrosive effects would eventually destroy all moral, religious, and metaphysical convictions and precipitate the greatest crisis in human history. In the 20th century, nihilistic themes–epistemological failure, value destruction, and cosmic purposelessness–have preoccupied artists, social critics, and philosophers."
Killing Kulture: Reading the above, it’s not hard to imagine that if you’re a modern Democrat, it’s quite likely you’re an atheist. So you put all your eggs in the government basket. Therefore, to be pessimistic about life, condescending and dismissive of conservatives is natural. Unfortunately, this belief system gives no natural reason to fight for a Constitution, respect the legal system, or even plan for the future. As Professor Anders Kraal of UBC’s philosophy dept states, Nihilism is the belief that “there is no objective meaning in life, there is no way things ought to be in an objective sense.”
CHALLENGE: Yes, America – the Democrat Party does not believe in anything but control. Or as Nietzsche stated, Will to Power. So, having admitted it -- What are you going to do about it?

Why is Trump Forever Attacked? Propaganda is Key to Seeing How Donald v. Joe are Treated
“Propaganda does not aim to elevate man, but to make him serve” -- Jacque Ellul, Propaganda
Trump v Biden v Reality: Let's get to the most basic facts of the current moral struggle against Trump, versus the media’s lockdown defense of the Bidens. Make no mistake, it’s contrived. Now, this isn’t an argument that Trump is perfect, but simply an observation as to the facts. That Trump was slandered early and often, before entering office. And done so in such a multi-coordinated movement, that is seemed impossible to fake, to the average American. And therefore, many were drawn into the idea they themselves were elites noticing DJT was a super-outlaw, appealing to their vanity & immodesty.
Gaslighting: And so, American in 2016 was part of a gigantic Gas Lighting experiment that ruined Trump’s presidency, still being directed today by Mainstream Media, FBI & DA’s across the US. Of course, if you google “gaslighting” only Trump is mentioned as the supposed proponent. Because abusers always project.
See Psychology Today on Gaslighting:
Gaslighting is an insidious form of manipulation and psychological control. Victims of gaslighting are deliberately and systematically fed false information that leads them to question what they know to be true, often about themselves. They may end up doubting their memory, their perception, and even their sanity. Over time, a gaslighter’s manipulations can grow more complex and potent, making it increasingly difficult for the victim to see the truth.
Total Resistance: From the beginning with Trump, there was total resistance. Why? Because Donald seemed to be so spectacularly gifted it would take a multi-angle masterwork of propaganda, a vast web of lies, & a sea of volunteers to overcome him. To such cowards as petrified Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Trump was an indomitable colossus. So that is what Obama, Hilary, Biden, Pelosi, Comey, FBI, FISA Courts and a cast of thousands assembled to do, to destroy this existential threat.
Trump & Russia: And so, before Donald had even come into office, he was already accused of conspiring with Russia. This occurred with a large sector of the US fed govt acting in lockstep, many congress members, and a multitude of past and present US officials. The entire US populace was also being groomed to hate Trump as inherently evil and assume him guilty of all charges, by devilish powers of propaganda. As Jacque Ellul wrote in his masterpiece, Propaganda:
“And so the issue here is, how do you turn someone into a devil? So that a large number of people skip any logical process and any contemplation of justice, and just assume the worst about another person? The answer is through propaganda.”
According to Webster’s, propaganda is: “the spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person” Also, consider Jacque Ellul’s superb Propaganda: The Formation of Men’s Attitudes:
“Propaganda tries, first-of-all to create conditioned reflexes in the individual so that certain words, signs, or symbols, even certain persons or facts, provoke unfailing reactions...The important thing is that when the time is ripe, the individual can be thrown into action by the utilization of the psychological levers that have been set up.”
Jacques Ellul -- Propaganda
National Hate Orgy: It's certainly true that a large portion of Americans hate Donald Trump, feeling him to be one of the worst people in history. The anti-Trumpers are extraordinarily proud of themselves for "resisting evil.” In their mind, they're fighting the devil incarnate. And yet, as more and more charges pile up against Trump, Americans realize they are flimsy.
Character Assassins: And such professional character assassins as Prosecutor Jack Smith are then called in. But a large portion of America still hates Trump, not seeing the forest for the trees. So how many fraud prosecutions are necessary to expose this for everyone, while the Biden’s luxuriate in selling-out America for millions? Ironically, leftist elites are the most susceptible:
“Intellectuals are in fact the most vulnerable of all to modern propaganda, for 3 reasons:
(1) they absorb the largest amount of secondhand, unverifiable information;
(2) they feel a compelling need to have an opinion on every important question of our time, and thus easily succumb to opinions offered to them by propaganda on all such indigestible pieces of information;
(3) they consider themselves capable of “judging for themselves.” They literally need propaganda.”
Jacque Ellul -- Propaganda
Breakdown of Trump DC Story: But here's the real history. First, Donald Trump did not fit into any narrative in WA, DC. So, 2nd, Trump created a great deal of panic and anger. 3rd, Democrats decided they would destroy Donald. 4th, they created a disinformation campaign to turn him into the greatest devil since Hitler. 5th, it didn't work in 2016, but still hobbled his presidency, placing Donald under a permanent cloud, discrediting everything he tried. 6th, it probably did eventually work in 2020. 7th, and now that Trump is back in front, he must be sent to prison where the left hope he dies.
Propaganda then hands hime (the average person) a veritable abundance what he needs: a raison d’etre, personal involvement and participation in important events, an outlet and excuse for some of his more doubtful impulses, righteousness —all factitious, to be sure, all more or less spurious; but he drinks it all in and asks for more.
Jacque Ellul -- Propaganda
Bidens Outed: So what is happening now? Meanwhile, the Biden family has been outed as the worst group of criminals to ever inhabit 1400 Pennsylvania Ave – aka the White House. But this produces a dilemma for many Americans, because they've already dedicated all of their hate to Donald Trump. And, therefore these dopey anti-Trumpers are quite likely to refuse to switch their hatred from Trump to Biden. Possibly, they may just give up on politics and claim that it's all corrupt.
But what the average American should do is just consider the idea that the Democrats knew what they were doing from day one, period. That they knew Biden was infinitely corrupt, as were many other Democrats, such as Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, etc. So, they needed a scapegoat in the form of Trump.
“To be effective, propaganda must constantly short-circuit all thought and decision. It must operate on the individual at the level of the unconscious. He must not know that he is being shaped by outside forces...but some central core in him must be reached in order to release the mechanism in the unconscious which will provide the appropriate - and expected - action.”
Jacque Ellul -- Propaganda
Takeaway: What’s the takeaway from this anti-Trump Gaslighting & Propaganda masterwork? That the Democrats would do anything to retain power. So, they created such a great hate machine that they all ended up falling into it and luxuriated in the soup of anti-Donald loathing. And it should be noted that the Mainstream Media is as wide as the universe and as deep as a potato chip while popular culture is intellectually dead. That’s why every story on propaganda or gaslighting stars Donald Trump. Meaning our “journalists” are such mindless shills, every article simply exposes Donald as a demon, ad infinitum.
CONCLUSION: But, the Left’s real goal here is to save Biden, destroy Trump and then continue to lower America into a modern Slough of Despond. And so, strip America of the Founder’s Christian background. Why? So that we abandon any belief that we were once a Lamp on the Hill shining light into a lost world. And to finally get rid of that beacon to help redeem a miserable and helpless humanity, hungry, ignorant, beaten-down and enslaved souls that we used to explain to -- that there is a better way of life. Because to the Joe Biden liberals of the world, there is only their flimflam artistry while the world burns and finally accepts Marxism.

USA Desperately Needs Return of Rule of Law, Guided by Principle of Charity
Can a Careful & Charitable Application of Laws Cure US Legal Problems?
This essay proposes an answer to the current collapse of the Rule of Law Doctrine – that all men and women are under the same fairly passed and justly applied laws. Currently, a former president is being persistently, legally persecuted at the same moment the current president’s son is receiving preferential prosecution and sentencing, both by the Feds.
The problem here is, even if you hate the guts of certain Americans, that is no excuse to radically degrade US law simply to destroy loathed individuals, or reward others. In other words, we must ask – Would any person be of such grave threat to America as to justify destruction of Due Process simply to effect his destruction?
The answer to this problem is resumption of the fulsome application of Rule of Law, and then adapt the Principle of Charity in which to assess individual suspects. See: The Principle of Charity: Assume the Best Interpretation of People’s Arguments
The principle of charity is a philosophical principle that denotes that, when interpreting someone’s statement, you should assume that the best possible interpretation of that statement is the one that the speaker meant to convey. Accordingly, to implement the principle of charity, you should not attribute falsehoods, logical fallacies, or irrationality to people’s argument, when there is a plausible, rational alternative available.
This canon of philosophical interpretation states that every argument should be given the best possible interpretation possible. Applying this standard, our laws should not assume any person guilty until probable cause is established. And, in fact, US law already does this. For example, all defendants in American courts are assumed innocent until proven guilty.
Further, the very phrase which calls for “Evidence beyond a reasonable doubt…” came from medieval Britain, demanded by a populace deathly afraid of the biblical phrase from Matthew, 7:1-2 “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you..” See, “The Origins of Reasonable Doubt: Theological Roots of the Criminal Trial.”
Now, as to the Rule of Law, Encyclopedia Britannica states the Rule of Law is defined as "the mechanism, process, institution, practice, or norm that supports the equality of all citizens before the law, secures a non-arbitrary form of government, and more generally prevents the arbitrary use of power.” The phrase itself traces to 16th-century Britain. The next century, Scottish theologian Samuel Rutherford argued for this against the divine right of kings. John Locke also battled Robert Filmer’s divine right arguments. Locke wrote that in society, all members are subject only to laws passed by a legislature, and outside this, all persons are free from both governmental and private restrictions on his liberty.
So, many will argue that the current president’s son has been given every possible element of the Principle of Charity, and yet this is a misreading of the narrative. In fact, the president’s son has been protected and coddled by the FBI and Dept of Justice, who have spent years covering up facts credibly related to him and his activities, and to his family. This is not charity, but in fact is a broadly placed fraud meant to obscure the graft committed by his entire Biden clan. This activity is the opposite of the proper application of the Principle of Charity, which is based upon good faith.
Now, as to the treatment of the Former President, we have another mistake of logic being used against him, called the Post Hoc Fallacy. So, if the Feds, Mainstream Media and all Democrats assume the Former President is the Devil Incarnate, then everything he is charged with must be true. See, The Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc Fallacy: “After This, Therefore Because of This.”
Not only does this reject the Principle of Charity, it specifically sets aside Due Process by rejecting Probable Cause which is always needed for a police charge and prosecution. And so, the Former President is repeatedly indicted for dicey and dodgy charges, in multiple states most actually using laws that were rewritten or misapplied to make them fit.
Can American law be saved from the wildly unethical and history deforming decision-making while hunting the Former President? Of course, with a little luck, and God’s grace. But more broadly, we must go and re-establish such standards as Rule of Law, Due Process, and Probable Cause. And in the meanwhile, all the offenders of the last few years must be punished in some way.
And let’s not forget, Hanlon's razor as well:
“Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.”

Woke Corporations Join Forces While Taking a Beat-down From Vexed Americans
Doomed “Bud” Rejoins Trans Cult as Crazed, Satanic Corporate Fascists Losing $40+ Billion
In an astonishing turn, furious Americans now revolt against our PC corporate masters, as first “Bud Lite” & now Target implode into financial free-fall. But other suicide corps also leap into the melee, to prove their woke bona fides like terrorist bombers boasting dynamite jackets. Consider Kohl’s flogging LGBTQ+ outfits for babies: “Selling 'pride' onesies for infants as young as 3 months.” But manic “Bud Light” has now rejoined gay pride by donating $200K! Results: $15 Billion off Target’s $72 Billion corp. worth – about 20%; while Bud has lost 80% of business & $27 Billion of the corp. worth.
Add to these outdoor clothing retailer Northface which ran an ad: "Hi, it’s me, Pattie Gonia, a real-life homosexual," in their "Summer of Pride" tour. So, will anyone get fired? Now, even the LA Dodgers celebrates gay days. But could anything beat Target’s Satanic themed LGBTQ+ trans campaign? That explains losing $10 Billion in 10 days. But “experts” state Bud will not back down.
Daily Mail reports the Designer Satan worshiper hired by Target for their LGBQ+ department admitted:
“'I’ve been thinking a lot lately about The Satanic Temple, and to a lesser extent, the Church of Satan, how they’re so frequently misunderstood and demonised (pun not intended) and how LGBTQ+ people are so often referred to as being a product of Satan or going against God’s will. 'Satanists don’t actually believe in Satan, he is merely used as a symbol of passion, pride, and liberty. He means to you what you need him to mean. 'So for me, Satan is hope, compassion, equality, and love.'”
The oddest detail of these failures of business common sense, in the name of Woke, is the inherently false nature of the accusations. Many aspects of the Trans & Wokeness arguments are either ridiculously false or doubtful, at best. For example, some studies suggest over 90% of “trans kids” will give up their fixation by 18. See, “Transgender Ideology Is Riddled With Contradictions.” So, what is the transgender war really about? It’s Marxism trying to untether our present society from our moral history. It’s wrestling for the future where only far leftism has a say.
JULIAN THE APOSTATE: BIDEN’S ROLE MODEL
One thinks back to Roman Emperor, Julian the Apostate, who after the towering breakthrough of his Uncle Constantine, who officially brought Christianity into the Empire, dragged Romans back into a new dark age of paganism. So, the battle is over this political religion attempting to snuff out the modern world while acquiescing to tyranny. Britannica notes:
“Julian, or Julian the Apostate, Roman emperor (361–363), nephew of Constantine I. Raised a Christian but converted to mystical paganism. As emperor Julian proclaimed freedom of worship for pagans and Christians in 361; he nevertheless promoted paganism over Christianity, against which he committed acts of violence and persecution.” And Ligonier writes: “But by the time Julian turned 20, he set all that aside, as he believed Christianity was bad for Rome and would lead to the ruin of the empire. Julian was determined to throw off Christianity from Rome and to return Rome to its prior glory. Which meant returning it to its prior traditions, returning it to its prior philosophy and to its prior paganism and the rituals and the temples.” Julian failed.
Consider the Biden Admin a new form of Emperor Julian. But instead of sitting back to take another cultural beating, our American anti-Woke majority lashed out for justice delayed against American corporate perverts. Obtuse and evil merchant Fascists collapse into smug and utterly self-satisfied confusion. A cadre of perversely delighted, filthy merchants seek to gain by confused and prematurely sexualized youth exploitation. The average American feels compelled to counter-punch these corporate perverts because we can finally push back with anonymous impunity. (2023 Complete list of Woke companies.)
UNDERSTANDING TRANS
What’s the message? First, the “Trans Movement” is a flawlessly executed Human and Sexual Rights victory that no human, including corporate persons, could oppose. Second, that Pride Month shall be observed on the religious calendar. Third, that woke corporations shall soak in the profits, aka the “rewards of the just.”
So how did this happen? Think back. As America accepted various culture-changes, including the sexual, feminist and now trans revolutions, we adapted by agreeing to trade morality for freedom. Obviously, we signed a deal in blood with the devil. Now, consider today, we watch a socialist & political cult filling the vacuum left by a dispirited, disabled church. And so, for example, the Church itself stepped away from almost any protests or resistance of, for instance, COVID rules, especially cancellation of church services. And now. With 40% of Christians not attending services, many church sects still standing embrace trans kids.
Where does this current, weird LGBTQ+ wave derive from? Unfortunately, many Americans have been so superficially indifferent to massive change. But deep down, unnerved by this strange movement, we’ve largely allowed this sideshow to setup, unimpeded. Praying this too would pass. But now many Americans sense our entire way of life hangs in the balance, unless we act. But Amazon and Walmart themselves support this movement.
Now, recall when Barack applauded MLKJr’s “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice”? So, is our new “Tran’s Train” the kind of “Justice” MLKJr was seeking? Probably not, since he was a passionate Baptist minister. And what about the victims, whose parents pulled the plug on their gender, etc? Do studies support this as beneficial?
WOKE = MARXISM
But let’s be honest, it’s been an obvious Marxist Revolution all along. Now, consider why so many average Americans are standing up to finally reject corporate wokism. First, we observe an assault against traditional American rights of personal belief, religious conviction, and political and economic ideals. See “How ‘Wokeness’ Is a Product of Marxism.” James Lindsey points out Wokeness, in a Marxist style, separates oppressors from their victims, the Woke.
Regarding Yoram Hazony & the Marxist foundation of Wokism,
“Progressivism: The woke formulation of Marxism Hazony sees the “hegemony of Enlightenment liberalism” as having been shattered and that a disguised Marxism – that is, “progressivism” in its woke formulation – has re-ascended and become a “spectacular and horrifying historical event.” Hazony champions, in opposition, the political tradition of Anglo-American conservatism, which he writes possesses “a strong intuitive commitment to… constitutional tradition.” He seeks to have its “moral fiber” and its national and religious traditions restored.” See: “How Marxism is Disguised as Woke Morality | Dr. Yoram Hazony.”
Specifically, consider the...“The Secret Reason Bud Light Chose Dylan Mulvaney w/ James Lindsay”, how Lindsay explained that the reason Bud Light chose Ryan was to score legal points w/ US Govt. But beyond this, the Left is intent on building Communism’s “New Men” which will supplant traditional men and pave the way for Marxist Revolution.
Second, these incoherent and contradictory convictions are contra-factually presented as complete belief systems during their freakish birth. Finally, the evolution of this political belief system brings a tyranny of enforcement -- auguring full-throated absolutism of a kind exemplified in the French Revolution. And the corporations truly believed no defense remained against their free-boot radicalism, as they pander to the Biden Admin’s crazy enforcement of socialist policy.
A FEW TRANS STATISTICS
Regarding Trans statistics, UCLA reports the number of year 2020 US Trans: “Approximately 1.6 million people ages 13 and older—0.6% of the population—identify as transgender in the United States, according to new estimates from the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law. This includes 1.4% of youth ages 13-17 (about 300,000 youth) and 0.5% of adults (about 1.3 million adults).”
But consider, regarding trans statistics, “Transgender adults have a 27% chance of having at least one disability at age 20 and a 39% chance at age 55, which is nearly twice the rate of their cisgender, aka straight, counterparts at both age.” And “A new study shows transgender individuals have a significantly higher mortality rate when compared to cis (straight) men and women.”
Further, “41% of respondents to the National Transgender Discrimination Survey reported having attempting suicide at some point in their lives, compared to 1.6% of all Americans who have reported attempting suicide.” And HALF of trans attempt suicide, each year. For Youth trans: “transgender and non-binary teens are four times more likely to suffer from mental illness when compared to their peers.” (video)
A Midwest study found: “About 85% of Minnesotans who are transgender feel depressed weekly, and 36% feel down at least five days per week, states the Rainbow Health survey. Up to 69% of trans youth experience symptoms of depression, according to the Trevor Project survey. In comparison, about 5-6% of the general population experiences regular feelings of depression.”
And most amazing, decades of studies of transgender kids have shown that a substantial majority, anywhere from 65% to 94%, eventually ceased to identify as transgender. But there may be a reversal coming to America. Consider Britain’s Tavistock Instuitute’s gender clinic has been shut down while thousands of patients, routinely and casually given hormones and blockers before age 16, are prepping for the worst medical malpractice case in UK history.
In other words, like so many of the unchurched today, including America’s 30+ non-believers in God must now find a source for their ideals which is not biblical, or religious. And according to Target’s crazed leadership, even a Satanist is acceptable as a designer of their new LGBTQ+ line. See NR: When Target approached the brand Abprallen to design clothing for its 2023 “PRIDE” collection, the retail giant was fully aware of the brand’s Satanist-inspired merchandise.
WOKISM AS A HUMANIST, SELF-CENTERED RELIGION
So why would corporate mammoths blithely hemorrhage wealth in lockstep, lemming-like suicides? Such inexplicable business mistakes must be driven by something profound, like spirituality. The only likely explanation includes a very basic political religion, as outlined by Eric Voegelin’s New Science of Politics. His description of The Political Religion, is where Voegelin first advanced his most important idea, that all modern ideologies stemmed from the anti-Christian heresy of Gnosticism. Voegelin stressed in this 1938 book that “the doctrine of humanitarianism is the soil in which such anti-Christian religious movements as National Socialism were able to prosper.”
Our mystery may be no deeper than the human need for heroism being degraded into a simple con-game, after Christianity has begun to close its public tent. Further, since wokism is suffused with perverse sexuality which supposedly cannot be rejected or even questioned, the rich and cloyingly-sweet stench of a decomposing human cesspool was too rich to refuse.
Consider our current 18th-Century level of mind science we use to assess these topics. Leading to the conviction that human identity forms by accident in our wokist cosmos. It’s now stated as a fact that humans are “born gay,” and therefore are morally pure, as a result. So being Trans is the result of an accidental identity forming in our cold cosmos.
And so the all-powerful corporate state, in recognition of these facts, must use a “natural law” of gender identity in defending these things. But wait -- our elites already decided postmodern rules establish there is no truth in the first place, only opinions. And so it doesn’t even matter how they explain and try to defend the Trans and Woke movement. Isn’t Satire the ultimate fallback?!!
WOKE SUMMARY: DEFAULT GODS
The real problem with today’s corporations, resembling free floating states, are they are freighted with atheistic religious beliefs. For example, ancient Egyptians believed animals were sometimes gods. Or, as Marxist countries arose, after killing religion, this gave humans unlimited powers. During many mass murders of perhaps 100 million innocent souls, Stalin’s giant face appeared across the country on various structures. So, your type of god – even the mindless, scientific method – decides what shape your universe resembles. As J. Nelson Kraybill wrote, in Apocalypse & Allegiance: Worship, Politics & Devotion: “Worship is Political.” Summarized, we conclude it’s this simple: That whoever decides your ethics is who you worship & your default God.

Will America’s Fascination w/Contradiction End in Insanity & a Fiery Demise?
SCOTUS’ New Female Member Can’t Define “WOMAN,” So Courts Can’t Save
Will America’s Fascination w/Contradiction End in Insanity & a Fiery Demise?
SCOTUS’ New Female Member Can’t Define “WOMAN,” So Courts Can’t Save Us
Amazing fact! As our older leftist standards age, they run afoul of new commitments, eviscerating the past ideals. Goodbye to claims of absolute rules and ultimate truth. Thereby, liberals expose their entire con-game, based on incremental gain of the whole society. But demolishing one set of ideals, then setting up new ones to be disappointingly obliterated again… as the world falls deeper into confusion displayed in ever-enveloping chaos.
“All is flux!” – Hericlitus
More importantly, these ever-shifting standards reveal leftism without core beliefs or commitments to any group or subject outside of absolute power. Why? Because if you eventually trash everything a society believes in, you then install a default nihilism, or an absolute vacuum of rules & laws. Or, as Nietszche said, after all beliefs are questioned, the Will to Power is the only thing left. Meanwhile, in the gap our schools created, propaganda puppets battle for faux ideals like a mama bear defending a 3-legged bear cub from a pack of wolves.
“There is nothing to life that has value, except the degree of power—assuming that life itself is the will to power.” Frederick Nietzsche
For example, consider how our new Trans Movement now displaces traditional feminism and lesbianism, which put a premium on womanhood at the cost of traditional families. Instead, the trans movement has essentially reconfigured gender by eliminating its premise. Now, how can modern American leftists claim they defend Womanhood when they can’t even define “Woman”? Or, as one states: “Trans Totalitarianism: The Harshest Face of Gender Nihilism.”
So, what is the “truth” that supersedes the claims of liberal feminists? Ultimately, that gender doesn’t exist, but is simply a creeping phantasm, ready to morph at any moment. So, get ready to see lesbians and feminists lining up to vote for Trump whilst holding their noses!
“Everything the State says is a lie, and everything it has -- it has stolen”
Frederick Nietzsche
Biden’s Democrats claim they are standing against the ruination of “Democracy” while Speaker Nancy Pelosi refused to allow any House Dems to vote independently. Interestingly, the very definition of Marxist “Freedom” means absolute agreement with the group. Socialists are “free” by joining lockstep with all other leftists. See Freedom from the Dictionary of Marxism:
Freedom is the right and capacity of people to determine their own actions, in a community which is able to provide for the full development of human potentiality. Freedom may be enjoyed by individuals but only in and through the community. Only in community has each individual the means of cultivating his gifts in all directions; only in the community, therefore, is personal freedom possible. In the previous substitutes for the community, in the State, etc. personal freedom has existed only for the individuals who developed within the relationships of the ruling class, and only insofar as they were individuals of this class. Karl Marx and Frederick Engels The German Ideology , Chapter 1d
So, one sees here the illusory right to practice individual freedom only in the group! And Nancy is a traditional Marxist carrying on her Father’s socialism with all the self-righteousness of Vlad Lenin.
Consider all the various ways that leftists are continuing to roll the dice for power while completely confusing all the players. For example, natural gas has long been considered the best fuel for environmental friendliness. Low in carbon, easily accessible, insanely cheap and effortless to use. But now we’re informed America must cease using natural gas, starting with households. Why? Because, according to Thomas Sowell, create an emergency which must be fixed to save society. And yet the sound of the campaign supersedes any scientific basis for its need or the efficacy of the antidote:
“To a remarkable extent, however, empirical evidence is neither sought beforehand nor consulted after a policy has been instituted. Facts may be marshalled for a position already taken, but that is very different from systematically testing opposing theories by evidence. Momentous questions are dealt with essentially as conflicts of visions.” -- The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy.
Also, consider all our other problems. Borderless illegal invaders refusing background checks, against Fed laws, while Biden claims numbers are dropping while 7 million have entered, all new Democrats. “Global Warming” rejects fossil fuels, as liberals celebrate foreign oil from dictators while US petroleum is shuttered. Meanwhile, CA demands an instant switch to electric vehicles occurring without a grid.
Child safety is touted while abortion is demanded as preteen children see genitals removed while dosed with artificial hormones. Incompetent candidates are elected as the Media refuses to report stories harming Dems. Journalists boast of unprecedented accuracy while astounding levels of dishonesty and fraud rain down on Donald Trump as endless fake prosecutions and lawsuits continue.
“There are no facts, only interpretations.” Frederick Nietzsche
So, Americans, even with failed schools that don’t teach reading, writing, arithmetic, history or logic still can’t stop citizens from wildly reacting against Bud Light (“Butt Light”) from jamming trannies down our throats. Bud’s Anheuser-Busch company has lost much stock value. Yet in a society celebrating women, fake ladies steal sports accolades while real women are sometimes permanently injured by fraud females. Thomas Sowell describes:
“The rise of the mass media, mass politics, and massive government means that the beliefs which drive a relatively small group of articulate people have great leverage in determining the course taken by a whole society.” The Vision of the Anointed
And so, let’s examine the Piece de Resistance of woke marketing, the case of Anheuser-Busch’s “Bud Lite.” Espoused by weird trans-advocate Dylan Mulvaney, and his scraped nose, Butt Light decided a totem completely opposed to its image was the right move. Dylan surgically altered, but sans breasts, yet retains his male organ. Bud Lite fans are so universally repulsed across USA that the brand has been abandoned at major sporting events, while dropping 8% of its market value. Meanwhile, the company shed about $5 billion of worth as a result.
NY Post writes: “Bud Light sales continue to plunge with 24% drop in latest week since Dylan Mulvaney disaster” And see Daily Mail:
Bud Light sales falling by much as 20% A WEEK could be the 'new normal' after Dylan Mulvaney debacle 'unless something drastic changes', industry analyst warns - as cases lie untouched and unsold in Florida CVS.
Now, ponder the possibility the massive protest against Bud Lite is simply the result of years of repressed revolt where folks have been intimidated by fear of revenge of the Woke. But now was felt, but some animal instinct, the perfect time to finally revolt against the rejection of nature and fake gender battles. And Anheuser therefore had to pay $5 billion for their ill-timed sins. And America is caught in a battle over the most inane issues because we’ve abandoned God and now live in social media misery.
“War is the father & and king of all; some are marked out as gods and others as men -- some made slaves, while others free.” -- Heraclitus
In fact, the most in tune with the World Spirit, of our days, or Zeitgeist -- may be stupendously talented Friedreich Nietzsche who threw off his late Father’s Christian religion, then died insane after having announced he was a superman after dispatching God. He believed that a superman will come to create new values after God’s death. He wrote:
Nietzsche wrote, “The stronger becomes master of the weaker, in so far as the latter cannot assert its degree of independence -- here there is no mercy, no forbearance, even less a respect for "laws."” & “The possibility has been established for the production of...a master race, the future "masters of the earth"...made to endure for millennia — a higher kind of men who...employ democratic Europe as their most pliant and supple instrument for getting hold of the destinies of the earth.”
So, the West, in a harebrained flight-for-freedom, abandoned the very idea of Truth to fit together all our incongruent ideas. With Postmodernism’s acidic tenure, we battle for meaning in a world with no reliable truths. Consider, “Revisiting the Will to Power: Active Nihilism and the Project of Trans-human Philosophy.” And Nietzsche’s thoughts on nihilism:
“What I relate is the history of the next two centuries. I describe what is coming, what can no longer come differently: the advent of nihilism… For some time now our whole European culture has been moving as toward a catastrophe, with a tortured tension that is growing from decade to decade: restlessly, violently, headlong, like a river that wants to reach the end -- (Will to Power)
Therefore, all we can salvage is a war against Nihilism, for without Truth there can be no laws or rules. And so, we battle to save our sanity. Our society and our lives against the mob and rabble. But are we doomed, nonetheless? So is American destined, like Nietszche himself, to abandon God on our inevitable way to a fiery end, either by an Apocalypse or something worse? The future remains opaque.

Has Society Removing God led to Unprecedented Failure & Enslavement?
Dutch Author Grotius Killed God to Save Mankind, Thereby Sealing Our Doom
America’s current malaise, w/ Bidenesque govt failure and an illiterate societal implosion is ultimately predicated upon a loss of religious foundation for moral order. It’s reminiscent of the 16th century brilliant intellectual Hugo Grotius’ canny removal of God from law to protect mankind from ongoing religious wars, which backfired. Instead, this innovation created a godless law, ultimately leading to tyranny. For one description of Marxism is humanistic nihilism. See Hugo Grotius' secular and subjective concept of natural law:
The Dutch humanist Hugo Grotius (1583–1645) presented in his magnum opus De Iure Belli ac Pacis (1625) a comprehensive and unified theory of natural law on a secular rational basis. He declared that natural law is a separate discipline from divine law and other forms of volitional norms, and may in principle be exclusively identified by reason.
Likewise, modern US Democrats are so fixated with control they’ve jettisoned religion and rights, as expressed in the Founder’s Rule of Law, to absolutely control society. Eric Voegelin referred to this as Modernity without Restraint, a lawless expression of Political Religion, which Democrats now mindlessly worship. Liberals knew if God were removed from the mind’s of men there would be no support if constitutional rights were suddenly set aside.
Now consider how America's loss of faith means we are becoming godless, with 30% of residents now religious unaffiliates. Christian identity has fallen to 63%, down from 75% just 10 years ago. And in 2022, belief in God was at 81%. Yet, from 1944 into the 1960s, 98% of Americans believed in God. Yet, after all the decades of public attacks against the faith, what if God is needed to help form values, convictions and plans for a prosperous and safe society?
But what difference does it make? After all, we’re now famously untethered from belief as we’re repeatedly informed religion causes wars, is a seedbed of ignorance, and unnecessary to understand a universe built on numbers. But is this true? Is the universe really self-generating and self-explained?
Consider that the existence of our Fine-Tuned Universe, aka Goldilocks, which strongly suggests a divine architect involved in its construction. Bearing in mind the number of subatomic particles in the known universe is 1x 10 80 , anything that reaches beyond 1x 10 50 is considered a mathematical absurdity (impossibility). Now, consider the odds of an accidental universe:
Roger Penrose , a British physicist, has calculated that this initial entropy of the universe was fine tuned to an exquisite degree. You can’t even get your mind around this: The calculation he made showed that the initial condition of fine tuning was one part in 10 to the 10th of the 123rd power, or 10 123
Note: “In math, the value 10123 means 1 followed by 123 zeros. (This is, by the way, more than the total number of atoms [1079] believed to exist in the whole universe.) But Penrose’s answer is vastly more than this: It requires 1 followed by 10123 zeros.”
Now ponder the odds of the following: Probability of a Single Protein Forming by Chance;
& Probability of a Single Cell Forming by Chance; & Probability of Life Arising Purely by Chance?; Or, for example, the “Fine-Tuning” Cosmic Constants which had to be in the exact correct measure for life to exist: (1) Gravitational (2) Electromagnetic (3) Strong Nuclear (4) Weak Nuclear (5) Cosmological. There are many more elements to the Fine-Tuning argument. But understand the odds of life spontaneously arising, even a single cell, is 1x 10 340,000,000 .
Now, the point of all this is to assert that there is no accidental universe or random life. And therefore, God’s opinions on our activities are precious and must be considered. that we see from a logical, mathematical or factual angle that life appearing accidentally is impossible, let’s ponder Hugo Grotius’ appeal to godless law to solve problems. See: Roots of Today’s Secular Humanism.
The Dutch scholar and jurist Hugo Grotius (1538–1645), the ‘Father of Modern Natural Law’, remolded the universally held concept of natural law—the law of God written in the heart of man. It was his belief that the law of nature would still exist etiamsi daremus Deum non esse (even if we were to say there is no God). While Grotius had the best of intentions, specifically to invite the then-body politic to propagate just laws that would ensure peace in society, he inadvertently paved the way for the atheistic philosophy of the Enlightenment and today’s effective altruism that has reduced the human person to a mere statistic.
The truly odd aspects of Grotius’ ideas were also brilliant, but flawed. He argued, in essence that a Natural Law can be proved to exist without God. And much like the philosopher Plato suggested ideas existed naturally with men, so Grotius said law existed with man. But a few problems resulted. First, Grotius also believed in God, so did the biblical God create the law above the law, too? And second, if there was no God, but we still had a Natural Law – or Law Above Human Law – where did it come from? There are no easy answers. See the Roots of Today’s Secular Humanism.
Grotius, an Arminian Calvinist, never refuted the existence of God, but wanted to dispel the belief, which emerged when John Calvin’s teachings became prevalent, in the tenet that God only renders justice by an ‘absolute decree’, which in turn left no room for free will. In fact, Grotius’s religious writings emphasised that the truths of Christianity, which were held in common by Catholics, Calvinists, Lutherans, and Arminians, were fundamentally more important than the peripheral points on which they felt they differed. Hence, it was no longer going to be ‘the law of God’ written in man’s heart that would guide him to make the morally correct decisions. Instead, man’s reason alone—independent from the divine precepts—was to determine what was ethically sound and what was not.
We realize that Grotius was alive during a 30 year religious war that raged between his country and Spain, a Protestant v Catholic struggle. Also, things were so dangerous regarding religion, that when Grotius wrote he wasn’t a traditional Calvinist, his mentor was prosecuted and executed. Hugo himself barely escaped in a trunk of books to France, avoiding himself education. But a very ironic way for an intellectual to be snuck out of the Dutch Republic!
Ultimately we see that Grotius sought to free philosophy and law from the war of religion. But instead, he made a slavemaster of both which is now centuries later being used to oppress both the religious conservatives and Libertarian free will believers whom the Marxist seek to enslave and destroy. See, Roots of Today’s Secular Humanism:
Yet it was not until the arrival of Grotius (1583 – 1645), recognised by most scholars as the Father of (Modern) Natural Law, that the course of individualism was altered in the most extreme secular manner, with his concept that godless natural law would still exist.
What’s the lesson here? That we can’t let anyone sell us an atheistic fantasy that life’s better without God, especially a mindless old fool. Further, unless we resist, all the godlessness unleashed today, our children won’t even know about God, so completely will He be buried. That’s why, setting aside such well-meaning but mistaken do-gooders as Grotius, we cannot disconnect God from law or we will suffer inevitable future tyranny, in the deified godless state.
As Eric Voegelin states, “Man cannot transform himself into a superman; the attempt to create a superman is an attempt to murder man. Historically, the murder of God is not followed by the superman, but by the murder of man: ” Humanism’s ultimate goal is to achieve God’s murder, so humans can escape dangers of hell’s everlasting torment by destroying sin & canceling the Judgment.

Is Trump a Bruce “Batman” Wayne, Who Achieves Good by Rule Breaking?
Can We Drop All Charges & Let Trump Finally Fix America?!!
Pondering the “Trump Prosecution Persecution,” I suggested to a friend, “Roger,” we officially drop all charges against Donald, let him win reelection, then allow him to fix everything Biden’s destroyed. Afterward, if people are still angry at Donald, after he saves the day, let them chase him again. That’s not what I would prefer, but it might be his only option. Further, I believe even the Donad would agree to that deal since he’s an American patriot, warts and all. But, anti-trumpers are irrational, implacable, obdurate and will fantasize about a Don bloodlust till they croak. But at least, I say tongue in cheek, we could finally fix Liberal’s insane tantrum effects.
If Trump is Evil Incarnate, Then WHY do His Enemies Have to Falsify His “Crimes”?
Roger, “Is Trump Bruce Wayne?” And, “Doesn't Bruce Wayne do the right things while always breaking the rules?” Well, this is obviously true. A related essay popped up: “Batman's Most Controversial Rule Transforms His Entire Attitude to Crime: Batman is famous in DC Comics for his rule against killing his enemies, but he doesn't have similar reservations about breaking any other laws.”
“One of the most famous things about Batman is his one rule about no killing, but it turns out that Bruce's one rule actually warps his perception in regard to the other crimes he commits while protecting Gotham City. The Dark Knight may be opposed to outright killing his opponents, but that same restraint does not apply to all crime.
Batman has been fighting crime in Gotham City for decades, the city is full of some of the worst criminals imaginable, and it takes an entire Bat-Family to try and keep the citizens safe. Batman has broken many laws over the course of his crime-fighting career, but the one law he'll never break is murder. Time and again, Batman has gone out of his way to save the lives of some of the most vicious killers that comic books have ever seen, all because Batman has a no-kill rule that he sticks to above all else. The problem is, when Batman is so focused on not breaking his own rule, he apparently forgets not to break every other rule of society.”
And so, it’s established Batman breaks laws to serve his community. But one can’t even accuse Trump of doing this much, which is why they have to create fake prosecutions against him. Instead, Trump simply does things his way while battling the corrupt and evil elites. Therefore, the main issue against Trump is that people hated him first, because of early and constant fake news. Therefore they insist he does evil things, because he’s loathed. But that logic is upside down, backwards and totally fallacious.
Sewer Potato Joe Needs a Swift Ride Down the Commode
Yet, why was it that people originally hated Trump, anyway? It’s mostly just propaganda. First, there was a concerted, Democrat effort to ruin his presidency led by his diabolical foe, Hillary Clinton. This was embraced by a jealous Barack Obama. Also Barack’s minions – James Comey, the FBI, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, etc. And a chorus of millions of wannabes, who realized if Trump wasn't stopped immediately their party of the Democratic socialists were in mortal danger of disappearing.
Why Trump IS Batman
But now we need to get the government off Trump’s back and allow him to do the things he does well, like problem solve and birthing big ideas. Donald must be allowed to do it his way, because it’s designed for efficiency, common sense, success and American betterment. Because, at this point, to hate and resist Trump, against the Biden Crime Family is to conjure up unmitigated failure and hell on earth. Stop nitpicking.
Boy Asks Donald: “Mr. Trump, Are You Batman?” – Trump, “I’m Batman!”
So, since it's obvious that this Quixotic Mission the Democrats are on to convict Trump for being a person worthy of hate is not going well, and is destined to fail, can we now drop it? The Democrats have already ruined their reputations. And now they're in the midst of trying to crush the country, out of jealousy and vengeance. In the meantime – free our once & future El Presidente’ – Donald Trump to fix the sewer that the suicidal, psychotic and devilish Democrats have trapped Americans in after only 2 years.
Go Brandon, drown now in your human sewer of American haters and illiterate, anti-Trump policies. Meanwhile – Viva le Trump!

How to Understand the Trump Indictment as a Conservative
We Don’t Have to Live w/ the Biden Sewer Potatoes Any Longer, It’s Time to Break Free
Finally, Trump was indicted as he predicted. But now what to do? Rioting is senseless when the GOP has congressional power and while the Senate is in GOP reach. But how to interpret the latest lies and indignities against President Trump? It’s time to pray and know that justice will prevail as conservatives build good strategy while not panicking but staying the course.
Augustine "Law that is not just, is not actually a law" –
Nam mihi lex esse non videtur, quae justa non fuerit
Deep Frustrations: Knowing the deeply felt frustration in you is also shared across our Nation by tens of millions of good people is certain since this process has been wildly unfair. To treat an individual as uniquely evil such that we must create new law to prosecute them is, itself, lawless. Then, to bully Trump to keep him from being reelected is craven, revealing boundless fear. Now, since Trump is already ahead in the polls it’s election tampering. And they’ve been doing this kind of crazy scheming since Donald ran, then was elected in 2016
An Indictment Not a Conviction: So, as Alan Dershowitz says, indictments are easy – you can even indict a ham sandwich. But what’s worrisome is that in New York they're so crazy they will convict a ham sandwich. But, right now it’s just an accusation, a prosecution.
DA Bragg Rejects rule of Law: Understand that despite the way this case reveals the creation of law itself by the DA Bragg, a prosecutor does not make the law – he merely applies it.Legislators pass laws that prosecutors then fit to pre-existing crimes. So Alvin Bragg already violated his oath to follow the Constitution and honor the Rule of Law & Separation of Powers. This sideshow case is a travesty of justice.
Aquinas: Unjust Law No Law: Any prosecution must pass the Bill of Rights, which this doesn’t. Therefore, it is not proper law. See Aquinas:
Thomas Aquinas exhaustively examines the legitimacy of man-made laws and whether they should be obeyed, in Summa Theologica. He asks "do man-made laws have to be obeyed?" His answer is no; a law only needs be obeyed if it is legitimate in three ways: 1. The Purpose: The law must be for the common good. 2. The Author: It must be in the scope of the authority making the law. 3. The Form: And its burden should be equal and apply to all.
False Prosecution Helps Trump & proves his points that the entire system is broken. So don't take it personally, don't get hurt, don't get wounded. Contra, feel free to share your opinion with anybody who asks and who knows you're a conservative and encourage others to take part in the political system. Let’s start building up our war chest for the GOP because in 2024 it's quite likely we will win the presidency and the Senate and have the house. Then we can really start cleaning up the sewer that's been built by the Democrats to force the rest of us to live in. Because we're not going to live in their toxic waste any longer.
Now, consider MLKJr.:
MLK: Consider what Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote about unjust laws from Birmingham jail:
“One may well ask: ‘How can you advocate breaking some laws and obeying others?’ The answer lies in the fact that there are two types of laws: just and unjust. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that ‘an unjust law is no law at all.’
“Now, what is the difference between the two? How does one determine whether a law is just or unjust? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law. Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust.”
Marxist Tools: Ponder the fact that misuse of the law to persecute others by dishonest prosecution is highly unethical and illegal. Alvin Bragg therefore must himself be investigated for his campaign promise to harass Trump and then his illegal creation of new laws. And since NY City itself is corrupt, this prosecution must be led by US Fed Prosecutors. If not, then law is just another tool of Marxist revolutionaries. Never forget, Marxism at its core is Nihilism, or LAWLESS!!

5 Reasons Trying to Prosecute, Jail & Invalidate Candidate Trump is Preposterous
Will This Malicious Prosecution Ultimately Help Trump & GOP to Retake White House?
Everyone has an opinion about Trump's indictment and his rumored upcoming arrest. But it's possible what Democrats think is the last necessary attack to expose Donald as a true monster & knock him out of the 2024 election will backfire. Astonishingly, famed Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz stated Trump can still run if indicted, and even if convicted could run the United States from prison. Meanwhile, Elon Musk states arresting Donald Trump will cause a landslide victory. So consider these problems with New York City's prosecution of Donald Trump, our once – and future president? Consider the following weak points of the prosecution:
Malicious Prosecution is a “Common law intentional tort with 4 elements: (1) intentionally (and maliciously) instituting and pursuing (or causing to be instituted or pursued) a legal action (civil or criminal) that is (2) brought without probable cause and (3) dismissed in favor of the victim of the malicious prosecution.“ One can also sue in federal court under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for prosecution without probable cause. The prosecution of Trump regarding Stormy Daniels is a classic case of misapplication of facts and wilful ignorance of law. For example, the Statute of Limitations ran several years ago, etc. Many legal experts have decried this indictment. See Prof Dershowitz:
Alan Dershowitz, Harvard Law professor emeritus, cannot fathom the concocting of this case against Trump. "I taught law for 50 years, I have no idea how you can combine a federal statute about campaign contributions with a state misdemeanor statute about other things and come up with something to charge Trump with. You know, it's 1 and 1 equal 11 here — not 1 and 1 equals 2. It's just wrong." Dershowitz added the timing is also suspect, as allegations of influence peddling against the Biden family has reached a crescendo
Prosecutorial Misconduct: We realize the purpose of Trump’s NY prosecution is to stop him from running for President, or at least ruin his reputations. “Prosecutorial misconduct occurs when a prosecutor intentionally breaks a law or a code of professional ethics while prosecuting a case.” The four general elements are: “failing to disclose exculpatory evidence, introducing false evidence, using improper arguments, and discriminating in jury selection.” Clearly this has happened in the Bragg NYC DA case. Obviously, using improper arguments against Trump looms here.
Another classic example of this was the Duke Lacrosse Case w/ Prosecutor Mike Nifong, who lost his law license for prosecuting a group of wealthy White Students when it was obvious from the beginning they were innocent and the so-called victim, no longer a stripper but in prison for murder, was mentally deranged. See AG criticism of Nifong.
Rule Against Impacting Elections = Tampering: Likewise, the violation of the “Long-held policy against prosecutors from impacting elections.” The fact Trump is a candidate and the prosecution so weak means this bad prosecution was done on purpose. Consider again that this DA favors dropping Felonies down to Misdemeanors, but seeks to build a Misdemeanor into a Felony here, proving he doesn’t hate crime, but just Trump. This proves the bad faith. Now ponder how many investigations of high officials are regularly refused, like Hunter Biden & all the Russia Hoax actors, along with Hilary and Obama.
ROGUE DA: Dem Superstars generally drop restraint and attack Trump. So hyper political NYC DA Alvin Bragg, who actually doesn’t like prosecuting the real bad guys, is perfect for the role. See “NYC convictions plummet, downgraded charges surge under Manhattan DA Bragg,” “NYC prosecutor Alvin Bragg torched for downgrading felonies: If Bragg's a DA, 'Dahmer is a vegan.'” See Daily Mail’s headlines:
REVEALED: Woke Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg downgraded over HALF of felony cases to misdemeanors as criminals are free to roam streets of the Big Apple Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg downgraded 52 percent of felony cases to misdemeanors, compared to 39 percent in all of 2019, according to new data Bragg wins a conviction 51 percent of the time, down from 68 percent in 2019
A rogue DA that’s just a city prosecutor seeks secular immortality for being the boldest, baddest public leftist going so far that he knows he will make himself into a superstar. A humanitarian savior to be touted perpetually.
Rogue AG Garland: Perpetual War Against Trump: We see again this next legal gambit against Trump joins the countless others federal, state and city prosecutions and international assaults. These found their greatest achievement in Pelosi’s several impeachments,with Nancy bragging Donald would end up in prison. And the AG says:
Merrick Garland stated after the search warrant executed by 24 FBI agents at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate: “Faithful adherence to the rule of law is the bedrock principle of the justice department and of our democracy. Upholding the rule of law means applying the law without fear or favor. Under my watch, that is precisely what the justice department is doing.”
Of course, this is the same guy who sent the FBI against uppity parents at school board meetings. Further, Garland had no idea his cheap shot would hilariously uncover numerous top secret files in Biden’s & even VP Pence’s houses. Irony.
Trump has been sued something like 500 times and been subject to countless investigations since 2016. So under NYC DA Bragg – will Trump be arrested and even convicted? And could this cause a Donald landslide from sympathy and anger against Dems? Prof Dershowiz stated: "Remember that it doesn't matter if he's indicted or even convicted or even in prison: He can still run for president and serve as president. The state can't stop it and the Legislature can't stop it. It's in the Constitution."

Date w/ Idiocy: US Foundering Under Fantasy Tour as Blind Ideologues Reject Reality
Woke Leading Blind: SVB Bank Collapses as Corp had NO Risk Manager for 9 Months
The United States traded our historically high standards and commitment to reality for sleepwalking into a fantasy world where no positive outcomes are possible. Because our “elite” ideological fantasists avoid reality. Consider we have wholesale rejected everyday truths and the most basic facts. But as millions of illegals pour over the border, men pour into women’s sports, the poor drown under discretionary inflation, we all know how using cancel culture to kill American reality will tur nout.
Meanwhile, in an extraordinary act of insipid bravado, Silicon Valley Bank had NO HEAD OF RISK MANAGEMENT for almost a year while its European risk manager drowned the unguided Corp in woke training and self-congratulatory diversity celebrations. See DailyMail: “Silicon Valley Bank had NO head of 'risk assessment' for nine months before it collapsed...
“As woke boss for Europe, Middle East and Africa was busy organizing a month-long Pride campaign and a 'Lesbian Visibility Day.'” Collapsed lender Silicon Valley Bank operated without a chief risk officer between April 2022 and January 2023 while the operation's United Kingdom-based Chief Risk Officer stands accused of prioritizing pro-diversity initiatives over her actual role. This revelation comes after the firm became the largest bank to collapse since the 2008 financial crisis - disclosing a $1.8 billion loss in its finances. SVB's former head of risk, Laura Izurieta, who formerly performed a similar role for Capital One, left the bank in April 2022. She wasn't replaced until January 2023 when the bank hired Kim Olson, formerly of Japanese bank Sumitomo Mitsui.”
Eric Voegelin described this detachment from reality in his “New Science of Politics” address at the Walgreen lectures in Chicago 1951. He described the various aspects as follows:
1. A successful society must exist, according to Plato, as an ordered cosmion, or a representative of a cosmic order before it can likewise represent the truth of a human soul. Our society still carries the belief that humans have an active soul as a truism of Christian faith. This implies a civil and religious order, the second being articulated in a church. But also know that a human soul without an operating manual turns out to be meaningless.
Voegelin describes how society was civilized via the development of religious ideas then absorbed into secular society. Fellow German Carl Shmitt opens his Political Theology with a similar claim:
“All significant concepts of the modern theory of the state are secularized theological concepts not only because of their historical development—in which they were transferred from theology to the theory of the state, whereby, for example, the omnipotent God became the omnipotent lawgiver—but also because of their systematic structure, the recognition of which is necessary for a sociological consideration of these concepts. The exception in jurisprudence is analogous to the miracle in theology. Only by being aware of this analogy can we appreciate the manner in which the philosophical ideas of the state developed in the last centuries.”
2. Advanced Western society interprets its habits and ideals as transcendent, meaning – we're so limited in our ability to seek truth that what we currently believe is also assumed a timeless truth emanating from the deepest parts of reality. Even though it’s only recently accepted that trans, woke, gendered and post-capitalist has just been officially crowned as our resident truths.
3. That postmodern life is now Gnostic, or as we constantly observe, that our elites believe knowledge replaces faith for procuring salvation. Therefore, life as experienced today has a deadly essence and so we flee. It should be a vivid dream of mankind’s triumph over nature and all human suffering. But instead we’ve lied to ourselves and now exist in a nightmare.
4. We’re caught in an awful dilemma, whereas we flee in horror, yet tell ourselves we're in the midst of achieving unlimited success. We pursue dreams of unlimited life, world peace, and endless prosperity. Yet, since life is actually horrible, instead of rejecting the cause, we ignore the horrible effects & sleepwalk through life refusing to accept we are headed towards absolute disaster. Here, Voegelin describes the odd situation of the West’s reaction after winning WWII:
“The facts are trite, and yet it is perhaps not sufficiently realized that never before in the history of mankind has a world power used a victory deliberately for the purpose of creating a power vacuum to its own disadvantage. Again, as in previous contexts, it is necessary to warn that phenomena of this magnitude cannot be explained by ignorance and stupidity. These policies were pursued as a matter of principle, on the basis of Gnostic dream assumptions about the nature of man, about a mysterious evolution of mankind toward peace and world order. So, contact with reality is at least badly damaged and the pathological substitution of the dream world is fairly effective.”
5. So, life now is so deeply disconnected from reality, that at every step we are in dire danger of completely annihilating ourselves. For example, has there ever been a point where the West has been so blithe about starting a war with a nuclear power, like Russia, and been so casual about it, as in the Ukraine? Or, consider the implosion of SVB Bank which childishly assumed that being sufficiently woke meant all banking risk was exterminated.
Voegelin states, “one can speak of an inclination to disregard the structure of reality, of relaxing into the sweetness of existence, of a decline of civic morality, of a blindness to obvious dangers, and a reluctance to meet them with all seriousness.” Is that not where we are now?
But what happens when SCOTUS, the highest court in the land – can’t even define the most basic human building block on earth – a man and woman? How can we possibly think we will survive our destiny with truth and reality and still come out on top?

A Completely Rattled AG Garland Makes No Sense Why Biden DOJ Plays Favorites
The Hatred of Biden Against Conservative GOP Will Not Succeed
So – what exactly is wrong with Attorney General Merrick Garland? During his early March '23 congressional hearings it's become obvious he's not up to the job – but why? If you consider that no average person would purposefully ruin their own reputation through incompetence. Yet, he's done so while chuckling at his critics and pretending to be offended.
But what does Merrick have to gain from failing? He just seems so out of his element in these hearings. He does so poorly on so many of the questions. So much so his go-to move is to remark, “I never heard that” or, state,“I need to research this!”
It's obvious to anyone who's followed his career, being a Harvard man and a fairly well respected judge that Garland is sabotaging himself. But you knew that when he-decided that the FBI taking on parents across America at school board meetings would be the first lie he'd hang his hat on. The paint wasn't even dry on his excuse that it had already fallen apart.
Frankly, Merrick didn't seem to sweat over who knew. The fact he didn't bother to nail down an alibi means he either doesn't care and is maybe doing this thankless task for others. Or, Merrick is really not that smart. Or, perhaps he just thought the GOP would finally just curl up into a ball and die after they failed to regain the US Senate.
But the upshot is Garland's lackluster efforts have damaged the entire Dept of Justice, leaving it reeling with the obvious conclusion that the FBI is an attack dog against GOP and critics. Where's the proof? The numbers are so skewed against Biden's DOJ, that details came out revealing no push back exists against leftists who show up daily at SCOTUS homes to protest. And while protesting for outcomes at a federal judge's house is a felony, the hundreds or thousands of such leftists have yet to be prosecuted once.
So, Garland has been a very indifferent person towards his position. “Why” that is will someday be completely exposed, but it can't be too deep a study in human psychology since Marxism itself is a running hoax. But the real question here is, “How did all of these far leftist politicians and judges simply sleepwalk into being card carrying members of the communist party?” Have all these failed leaders simply copied Das Kapital and Antonio Gramsci? Or is there a central core of ultra elitist Marxists running the show?
The guess is that it is some group of Barack Obama, Susan Rice, and other hardcore professional rabble rousing socialists who mad sure they gathered in a fortune in “dirty capital” before coming back to volunteer at Joe Biden's communist White House version of Animal Farm meets Lord of the Flies.

Mainstream Papers Seek Govt Grants as Leftist News Superstars Fail Under Propaganda
Socialism as a Universal Truth is the Ultimate Murder of Independent News Reporting
Failing Papers: Mainstream newspapers have lost readers for years, but NOW blame failure not on relentless mediocrity, but Facebook. Yet, anyone with the cast-iron stomach to consume our literary equivalent of frozen salisbury steak will assert there's no intellectual, spiritual or emotional content. Yet, what else would possibly better pique the interests of average Americans?
Govt News? But now, inveterate leftists demand the government to underwrite our papers, despite them failing for good cause. See Feb 21, 2023: “US local news outlets need tax breaks to save democracy, says advocate” from Rebuild Local News, claims they will save hundreds of outlets decimated by changes across America, by requesting tax credits of $3.5 Billion. Now, is there any better evidence of a failed idea than needing billions to resurrect?
Rats w/ Plague: In fact, like brown rats carrying the plague, the only reason for current newspapers to publish is as a vector for Marxist fables. But one can’t avoid the absolutely dreadful quality of progressive American newspapers, which used to be the best in the world. The chronic flaw is the default Socialist foundation as presuppositional metaphysics for every more, religious and debatable issue in each tale. Add to this inevitable story lines, poor plotting, and typical misspellings. It’s the modern variation of Woke Wakefiled Mystery Plays.
Bad to Worse? But does the government paying for news just make a bad thing worse? Q: So, what’s worse than being propagandized all day? Answer: To have to pay others to do it for you! See: Government funding for journalism: necessary evil or just evil? And Turning the Watchdog into a Lapdog: Why the Proposed Newspaper Bailout is the Wrong Solution for a Failing Industry.
What can be done? Actually, the necessary “survival of the fittest” gyrations are occuring now as all these lock-step socialist influenced newspapers now die on the vine. See, Two local newspapers close a week in the US. See, Expanding News Deserts & Vanishing Newspapers, from 2020: Since 2004, USA lost 25%, or 2,100, of its newspapers, including 70 dailies & 2,000+ weeklies/ non-dailies. By 2000, America had 6,700 newspapers, down from 9,000 in 2004. Today, 200+ of USA’s 3,143 counties have no newspaper or alternative source of reliable info on critical issues. 50% of the USA has only 1 newspaper, while 2/3rds have no daily newspapers.
Gaslighting: But the reason US newspapers have deflated for decades is they've joined forces together to resist capitalism & republicanism. Now they serve just one purpose – PROPAGANDA. The downside is obvious and dreadful. First, there's only one story extolled by most news outlets, much like the one-party system idea. So the diversity of details shrivels up as an information drought and intellectual malnutrition sets in. And then the angry critics launch against the holdouts. For example, how all phenomena are explained by one “fact,” such as the statement all weather anomalies result from…Global Warming. Now just try demanding proof!
Truth is Found!: Second, there's no longer a search for the truth in news, because as we now see, the Truth Has Already Arrived! Of course, this means new is no longer fresh facts which smart professionals try to offer in an understandable manner, but simply refried hash and leftist trash. This bores the average person and leads to suspicions over the quality of reporting. Third, writers now regularly talk down to those who dare disagree and treat them like mentally diminished Americans, despite being themselves of diminished capacity.
Refried Baloney: Fourth, genuine information which used to be discussed in newspapers, adding meat and potatoes to stories is now boiled down spam, ignored or jettisoned. But the main issue is when these stories get posted in mainstream news organs, any serious person must find other sources to fact-find to see if the information is correct. It's maddening.
No Passion or Freshness: Fifth, the spiritual aspects of these stories are treated as an absolute joke and ignored. Missing out on opportunities to enrich and fortify topics. Sixth, since these stories lack passion and freshness, and they're composed so haphazardly, the “journalists” often struggle with such basics as spelling, fact checks and reading for basic tone.
Death of 5 W’s: Finally, and sadly, most modern new stories flunk the “Five W’s” test of journalism. Where a report is only considered complete after answering the famed “5 W” interrogative questions: Who, What, When, Where & Why. So our essays are now the modern equivalent of ancient Greek Fables. It's inevitable the news industry’s diminishing popularity & readers underinspired, while those abandoning are insulted by the very newspapers failing.
Mainstream News Alternative: The alternative to the diseased old news is what we currently see now suddenly arising & thriving across America. Podcasts, personal newsletters, and safe places to essay, like Substack – refusing to censor. During this period of transition you still have Google and YouTube and other vast corporate underlings. Those who’ve decided that it's safest to err on the leftist model because, as knowing that it's only really leftism in human history which killed business outright and slaughtered hundreds of millions of people, too.
Bottom Line: If traditional media had not adopted itself for the role of feeding propaganda into every story as if their lives depended upon it, to spread Marxism, we wouldn’t be in this tight place today. The constant flow of false facts and contrived narrative eventually convinced the credulous that reality was socialist. And so as this leftist religion grew, we eventually reached the place where one writer claims the journalist war against Trump ended in our current massive propaganda system. See, How Trump Derangement Gave Birth To The Censorship-Industrial Complex. But now things are starting to ebb.
Friends, let’s take a brief moment to salute the death of traditional newspapers. Now, Long Live REAL Journalism – Like Canada Free Press!!

China’s “Test Balloon” Exposes Dem’s Symbolic, Leftist Orchestrated Incompetence
Amateur Hour: While China Balloon Deflated on Coast, Biden Admin Exposed
Is incompetence the goal when the state decides to toss itself into self-created stormy seas, or just the unintended byproduct? Or, What do Democrats gain by failing to respond to the most elementary foreign incursions against America like a massive balloon lurking overhead taking exquisite pics of US defense? But now we’ve now seen the US shoot this spy balloon down. Yet, only after much citizen opposition against letting it float unimpeded over the USA.
It’s NOT a weather balloon, but a lower level spy ship sent to test Biden’s mettle. Then again, What did Biden gain by abandoning 1,000’s of Americans in Afghanistan and $80 billion in weapons to the Taliban? But we digress…
The Left is Being Mugged by Reality, Again – Bret Stephens
Such a dilatory government reaction allows China to celebrate American impotence. While here, leftists continue recreating their “America’s anti-myths”, teaching capitalistism is broken, the US a bad place, American willpower for self-defense exhausted. This is all meant to reveal we’ve no means or even rights of self-defense. It’s all an illusion. An unmistakable illustration of how American liberal internationalists want us to see ourselves passively waiting prone in a prison shower, cowering before the next assault.
Another aggravating factor is Biden’s administration refusing to communicate to US states that the balloon was headed their way or even floating over them. Montana’s governor Gregory Gianforte stated he had no idea this balloon was over his state, spying on the military’s famed IBM nuclear silos, without his knowledge. Instead, a photographer noticed it while at the airport and informed the government, as the governor stated he would have shot it down himself. Does Canada also have this problem?
Cloaking Device for Incompetence: Govt’s ‘Culture War’
One unnerving aspect of US leftists is their insistence that only the federal government itself has the authority to lead. But even more insulting – they insist only these elites have the intellectual ability to problem solve. Hence the fixation on the Ivy League. This modern neo-gnosticism, or priesthood of intellect – is highly dangerous. By itself, it dissolves democracy by occluding American decisions making, destroying our model of transparent government.
The Weakness & Incompetence of Today's American Government is Not an Accident
Consider, the US Founders gave us government by self-representation, detailed in Sacvan Bervovitch’s Rites of Assent. American Revolutionaries created the United States Constitution in 1787, ascribing a national legislature for directly elected reps every two years. Recall, the English Civil Wars of the 1650’s concluded by stating an English monarch can’t govern without Parliament's consent. Absolute monarchy ended with the Glorious Revolution’s Bill of Rights. John Locke himself destroyed the theory of the Divine Right of Kings promulgated by Filmer. But our representative government is disappearing as special interest woke samurais stalk the USA.
Obviously, as Biden & Co. Wills Itself to Failure, Global Sharks Smell Blood in Water
The Democrat party's Nancy Pelosi was creating all bills only out of her office without input, destroying representative government. But this information was not spread by the media. But transparency must be found both out of the government, and also inside it. What’s the answer? Republicanism – What is it?:
Republicanism is a theory emphasizing participation of citizens for the common good. Responsibilities & citizen duties are paramount. Exemplary citizens readily subordinate personal to public interests. Contrasted from liberalism, concerned primarily w/ personal & private rights of individuals, republicanism stresses public rights & obligations of citizens to cooperate in support of their community.
Essential characteristics of republicanism are beliefs or assumptions about the relationships of individuals, the community, and government, including the following:
Needs of community are considered superior to claims of the individual,
Citizens obligated to participate extensively & cooperatively in public affairs,
Common civic identity is primary over diverse and particular identities,
Political & civic unity valued more than diversity or pluralism in the community,
Citizens are equal in their duties, responsibilities, and rights,
Citizen Participation is key to govt accountability and personal fulfillment,
Popular sovereignty is the foundation of good government,
Good government carries out the general will of the people,
All citizens are capable of self-rule & civic virtue & are obligated to cultivate it,
Good republican government depends on continuous civic/political participation of virtuous citizens.
The history of Republicanism before America is fascinating. See Republicanism:
Republican virtue involves putting the public good, or interests of the state, above one’s own private interests. While this idea could be traced back well beyond Cicero, it was articulated particularly clearly by Montesquieu in the mid-18th century, who described virtue in a republic as ‘love of the homeland’ and insisted it wasn’t a moral or Christian virtue, but a ‘political virtue’. Often this notion of virtue was associated with the rule of reason and with being able to control one’s passions. Of course, these ideas were not exclusive to republicans. Frederick the Great of Prussia, for example, offered this assessment of good princely rule: ‘He is only the first servant of the state, who is obliged to act with probity and prudence; and to remain as totally disinterested as if he were each moment liable to render an account of his administrations to his fellow citizens.’
A Dire Need for Govt Transparency, Fundamental to a Constitutional Federal Republic
But consider how our own government, on it’s own official fed website writes about our stunningly effective & potentially evergreen republican style of government:
“While often categorized as a democracy, the United States is more accurately defined as a constitutional federal republic: “Constitutional” refers to a government in the US that is based on a Constitution which is the supreme law of the US. The Constitution not only provides the framework for how the federal & state governments are structured, but also places significant limits on their powers. “Federal” means there is both a national government and governments of the 50 states. A “republic” is a form of government in which the people hold power, but elect representatives to exercise that power.”
So self-rule, citizen-led government, based on virtues, self-sacrifice, and transparent governments. Biden doesn’t understand this, but – see below – Obama publicly touted it!
MEMORANDUM FOR THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
SUBJECT: Transparency and Open Government
My Administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government. We will work together to ensure the public trust and establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration. Openness will strengthen our democracy and promote efficiency and effectiveness in Government.
Government should be transparent. Transparency promotes accountability and provides information for citizens about what their Government is doing. Information maintained by the Federal Government is a national asset.
Psychologists talk about Weaponized Incompetence. “When one partner in a relationship approaches a task with little to no effort to avoid being asked to do that task in the future.” Is that not what we're dealing with today in Biden's crazy failure- ridden Administration? Consider his Border & Immigration, Oil Regulation, or how his inexperienced transport czar literally ruins everything, when he’s not on maternity leave…etc ad infinitum. The Biden reaction: the “Cloak of Competence” – capturing attempts to disguise limitations and exaggerate abilities.
But, consider – is Designed Incompetence the only way Democrats can achieve total power? This is self-evidently true to Democrats.They therefore need us all to know we have no choice but to swallow it all, dystopia style. But in 2024 we need a new Republican Senate that shall punish the bad members and make the criminals suffer, just like the US House is doing today. Yet, in the meantime, we need a whole lot of prayer, folks – a whole lot of prayer.

How American Murders Skyrocket From Abandonment of God
Democrats Ignored Floyd Riot Violence, But Now Reap the Whirlwind
Hemorrhaging Murders: The US already suffered 39 mass shootings in January 2023, w/ 93 dead. So, what’s going on? Heritage statistics show the trend first began after the Geo Floyd riots were not prosecuted: 8 Cities That Help Explain National Crime Wave: “FBI statistics show a 30% increase in violent crime in 2020 compared to the previous year, the largest single-year increase since the agency began tracking those numbers in the 1960s.” While there’s possibly many elements involved, such as defunding police, etc, what is the largest influence at play?
Is Current US Violence Spike Related to Deeply Religious Instincts Denied?
Godless: On a deeper level, consider that since Leftism has no God, and therefore no function to address sin, this in itself leads to callous disregard of traditional sin. It fosters lawlessness and murders. What? Yes, losing Christian faith is harmful since it encourages folks to follow law and forgive. But humanistic Marxist atheism has no deep argument against violence. Godless peopled define their own law, as Nietzsche wrote of his Ubermensch, or superman.
No Blood, No Coverage: Intriguingly, Hebrews 9:22 states, “According to the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.” So, does this text claim without the volitional acceptance of Christ’s sacrificial work on the cross, a brazen attitude takes over and actually leads to bloodshed? For this is exactly how it seemed to work in the first godless- by-design societies: USSR & Communist China, together executing 150 million of their own innocent people.
Govt Covenant: Now, compare the the myriad Americans now being attacked and slaughtered in cold blood versus the sacrificial blood of Christ that heals by being spilt. What’s fascinating here is the religious notion that Christ’s blood actually brings atonement, or creates peace with God. The implication is that America, first built on a biblical Covenantal Theory of government has stepped away from this, and so like the ancient Hebrews being deported to Babylon, must now pay in loss, violence & humiliation. See Elazar’s The Covenant Connection.
Religious & Secular: This religious/secular approach to God in the form of a binding covenant takes the place of unbeliever’s criminal bloodletting. Ponder the notion of an agreement to honor God where both believers and unbelievers are benefited via the covenant. Now, for the skeptical and irreligious, consider the psychological angle, that virtually every ancient society practiced some level of blood sacrifice. See: The rise of blood sacrifice and priest-kingship in Mesopotamia: A ‘cosmic decree’?
Also, see Covenant as a Political Concept The Covenant Tradition in Politics, Vol 1, Chapter 1:
“The Idea of Covenant: A covenant is a morally-informed agreement or pact based upon voluntary consent, established by mutual oaths or promises, involving or witnessed by some transcendent higher authority, between peoples or parties having independent status, equal in connection with the purposes of the pact, that provides for joint action or obligation to achieve defined ends (limited or comprehensive) under conditions of mutual respect which protect the individual integrities of all the parties to it. Every covenant involves consenting (in both senses of thinking together and agreeing) and promising. Most are meant to be of unlimited duration, if not perpetual. Covenants can bind any number of partners for a variety of purposes but in their essence they are political in that their bonds are used principally to establish bodies political and social.”
Godless: Further, now, consider America is quickly becoming a land of doubt: “About 30% of American adults say they do not have a religious affiliation, according to a new study. In 2007, only 16% of American adults surveyed by Pew Research identified themselves as religious “nones” – those who describe themselves as atheists, agnostics or “nothing in particular” when asked about their religious identity.” And less than half Americans now attend church.
Decadent USA: If one peels back the onion a few more layers, we realize our entire society has degenerated in just a few decades, appearing dead inside. Many traditions once deeply embedded in the fabric of our culture have disappeared. Ponder how the loss of marriage-based culture breeds millions of rootless, latchkey kids. Many never experience a father’s love or discipline, and numerous have never been to church. Their manner of dealing with conflict lacks skill, oft leading to violence and revenge. So violence morphs into the coin of the realm.
Mass Murders & Child Stabbings: The US had 647 mass shootings in 2022, 690 in 2021, but 611 in 2020, and only 2019 in 417. So the problem keeps getting worse. In 2022 there was almost one mass shooting every day. Consider, just last year, on Sun November 27, 2022, it was reported:
“Two young brothers – an 11-month-old baby and a 3-year-old boy – were stabbed to death in New York City, police said. The two boys were found unresponsive with “multiple stab wounds” to their necks and torsos at an apt building in the Bronx late Saturday, the NY Police Department said.”
Mass Murder Contagion: Do mass killings spark other such murders? Experts disagree. See California massacres suggest phenomenon of 'mass shooting contagion':
“Following four CA mass shootings within eight days leaving 25 people dead & 17 injured, researchers ask if "mass shooting contagion" is occurring across CA. The cluster of deadly incidents isn’t surprising, as studies show the probability is high a mass shooting garnering national attention will be rapidly followed by another. "'Contagion' is a statistical process for the likelihood of a similar crime of another mass shooting increases in the aftermath of previous ones.
Human Sacrifice: But where did human need for sacrifice come from in ancient paganism and what was its purpose? In 1871 Sir Ed Burnett Tylor, British anthropologist, stated sacrifice was a gift to the gods to earn favor or to minimize hostility. See Canaanite Child Sacrifice, Abortion, and the Bible:
“The Aztecs and Mayans sacrificed both children and adults to their gods. Exposing an unwanted child to the elements or wild animals was a common practice throughout the Greco-Roman world. The Carthaginians of North Africa sacrificed their infants and children to pagan gods over a period of several centuries.”
Child Sacrifice = God’s Favor: Again, consider when the Romans condemned Carthage for sacrificing their own children, it turned out to be true, and was meant to appease the pagan gods. And since this is seen throughout the ancient world, the need for blood must be not just Christology, but somehow deeply rooted in human nature itself. See Ancient Carthaginians really did sacrifice their children. And about their prayers inscribed on the child’s tombstone::
“The inscriptions are less equivocal: completely unlike funerary epitaphs found in Carthage’s other cemeteries, they describe an “offering” or “gift” to a particular god (usually Baal Haamon, sometimes with goddess Tanit), “because he heard the voice of my words” or “because he heard my voice and blessed me” – because a prayer had been answered. This suggests these infants were votive offerings: gifts promised to a god in return for a favor. This was a common phenomenon in the ancient Mediterranean.”
Satanic Humanism: Now, consider how the Left spent a hundred years trying to debase US society, in homage to Marx, Humanism & Satan, according to the dedications of many socialist books. See Romantic and Socialist Satanism; & A disturbing guide to devilish Karl Marx.
Planned Chaos: In our closing meditations, let’s recall the socialists have attempted to make a hell of earth. Why? To force ordinary & despised typical persons to give up their independence and cling to government like a drowning dog to a piece of flotsam. See: Planned Chaos:
“The title comes from the reality of central planning and socialism, whether of the national variety (Nazism) or the international variety (communism). Rather than create an orderly society, the attempt to centrally plan has precisely the opposite effect. By short-circuiting the price mechanism and forcing people into economic lives contrary to their own choosing, central planning destroys the capital base and creates economic randomness that eventually ends in killing prosperity.”
Abandoning Christ Means Revenge: We cannot possibly see ceaseless American mass killings as random. They result from a collapse of civil society, where the manner of solving disputes has collapsed, coincidentally just as the Christian Church is dissolving. For example, the Half Moon Bay murders of seven farmworkers a few days ago were over a $100 car repair debt. And let's get serious, as humans have sacrifice in their minds, if we dump Christ & the Cross, we end up with lost souls, some of whom invariably excuse murder. So let’s stop deluding ourselves as to the nature of this deviltry and get to work rebuilding civil society, starting with the Church.

Will Biden’s Trashy & Quixotic Reign End by Classified Docs Hypocrisy?
Joe Can’t Even Remember His Own Name, So He’s Not Worried About “High Crimes”
Once again today, more classified docs surfaced in Biden’s house, like caskets bobbing up in a Louisiana cemetery after a hurricane. These docs trace to Joe’s Senate years, as this debacle implodes while a Special Prosecutor will investigate. As the Lame-Brain-Media claims Trump is the true docs scoundrel, yet Joe’s casual boxes of classifieds is more like a mentally deranged hoarder.
Biden’s brain function might be closer to Chase Neill, convicted Jan 19, ‘23 of threatening a U.S. government official, GOP Kansas U.S. Rep. Jake LaTurner. Neill is admittedly an emissary from God, angry at LaTurner for “ignoring concerns about sorcery, wizards, extraterrestrials and the war for people’s souls, stating he conveyed a message that LaTurner faced death by an act of God, such as a tornado or hurricane, for attacking God’s creation.”
Meanwhile, the DOJ informs the GOP House they can’t have present investigative info, while the same DOJ fabricated Trump’s impeachments. Can you say Cognitive Dissonance? Would AG Garland learn a life-lesson from being impeached? Meanwhile, Biden’s current crisis performance makes Mr. Magoo look like Michael Jordan on a breakaway dunk, by comparison.
Now consider 10 points on Biden’s eye-opening contretemps.
First, how does one explain the timing of Joe’s Classified Docs? For these were “discovered” on Nov 2nd, 2022 – 6 days before the 2022 Midterm Election. Despite being 6 years out of the White House. Democrats must have planned on these papers never being found or they wouldn't have set themselves up as enormous hypocrites while trashing the Donald. Now, instead of a prosecution, Trump's case falls apart. This actually gives DJT wind beneath his wings to return to accusing the govt of bias against non-liberals and hatred of him.
2nd. The fact that lawyers were called in for the many classified doc dumps was simply for damage control, as most intuited. To begin, lawyers are better trained to study documents and categorize them. Now, lawyers also couldn't talk about what they found if the issue blew-up – because of attorney-client privilege confidentiality. But all this only makes Biden & Co.look doubly guilty, in retrospect. WAPost states, “some of the classified material found in the Biden Penn Center office was marked top secret.”
3rd. Joe sold his presidency on a promise of transparency which has now been utterly exposed as rich farce. Again, the US media is furious because hypocrisy is the only evil in society they oppose, according to their values. They’re mad about hypocrisy, not whether a president should be transparent, which they clearly believe is bad for a sitting Democrat.
Said Karine Jean-Pierre: “What I can say — look, what I can say is what the President has said before, what I have said multiple times. We take this very seriously. The President takes a classified information, classified documents very seriously.”
4th. The classified doc kerfuffle helped reveal AGAIN Joe Biden is physically incapable of recalling anything, including the actual document borrowing. This puts the Democrats into a familiar dilemma. Biden’s bosses would love to blame this all on Joe's disintegrating brain and complete lack of memory. But, they can't do this as it would simply expose how this group of elite misfits runs his presidency by remote control. Biden enjoys the Marionette Presidency model. But which leftist fanatics are really pulling the strings?
5th. As to his crimes, is Joe in peril? No. For, if the water gets too hot Joe will just resign. Many believe removal is the entire purpose of this bizarre entanglement. But in his dotage, see how Biden reveals his theology: “Biden: ‘I’m not sorry for anything that I have ever done!’” And, so – unsurprisingly, President Biden stated of his doc failure: 'There's no there there'.
Joe stated: “We found a handful of documents were filed in the wrong place. We immediately turned them over to the Archives and the Justice Department. We’re fully cooperating and looking forward to getting this resolved quickly. I think you're going to find there's nothing there. There's no there there.” But is being unapologetic the answer after trashing Trump for months?
The NY Post states: “A box labeled “Important Doc’s + Photos” was left unsealed on a table ahead of a child’s birthday party in the Delaware home where the 80-year-old president was discovered to have stashed sensitive government records, a photo from his son’s laptop revealed.”
6th. Now Joe’s created Kryptonite for the Democrats versus Trump. For, he’s already been proved mentally unfit by failing daily at the most basic, ordinary tasks. But Joe’s repeated new document cache discoveries really begs the question – Who has been calling the shots since Biden got into office? This question has really crippled Dem ability to fight back against Trump, and the topic has given DJT all the leverage he needs to get re-elected.
7th. Now we're looking at the implosion or dissection of the Gerontocracy – when all of these ossified, ancient elected liberal Democrats are breaking down. So the Democrats are flat out of options, since their Ancien Regime is clearly finished. And the insane far leftism the party has adopted is not viable. So no young Dems can translate into the highest office.
8th. Since Democrats only ever seem to worry about hypocrisy, you know this was a complete cluster bomb. So their usual Hypocrisy Trap can’t work here. But the reason Dems only ever fret over hypocrisy is they actually don't believe in the Rule of Law, or Right & Wrong. Marxism only believes in opportunism. So, they really, really screwed this up.
9th. So it seems like these unforced, Democrat mistakes are starting to break the web of tyranny they've been erecting for years around the US. But what will the Republicans do? The fact is, the GOP is mostly too sick mentally and spiritually to take advantage of this collapse. You've got just a few strong Republicans left like Jim Jordan to fight to take back the keys to the kingdom. But let’s stay hopeful.
10th. It’s inconceivable that AG Garland would launch an FBI docs raid against Trump when insensate Joe’s had classified papers rattling around his buildings for 15+ years. But Biden’s shocking, multiple classified doc discovery does offer a tantalizing reward – if the Republicans can flip the Senate and the presidency. If the GOP can capitalize on these latest bizarre & hypocritical illegalities, it would be possible to reassemble and resurrect the classic theory of Western republicanism. Stay tuned, sportsfans.

California Leaders Pretend Permanent Drought as State Drowns in Cyclical Floods
35 Trillion Gallons: CA Flooding Ironically Exposes Global Warming Death Cult
Unbelievably, CA’s nine-in-a-row storms delivered no less than 35 trillion gallons of water which mostly ran back to the sea in this drought-infested land. So a natural disaster exposed another man-made debacle. How politicians refused to upgrade state infrastructure while keeping their population in perpetual ignorance and slavery under the disproved myth of Global Warming.
CA received 24 trillion gallons of water in the 16 days after Christmas, ergo – adding another 10 trillion in the last 7 days is a no brainer. So, the Pineapple Express just dropped over CA 35 trillion gallons. In urban areas and coastal cities, 80% ends up diverted into the ocean. Fascinatingly, one writer in 2022 predicted: A megaflood could bring over 8 feet of water to parts of California. And also snow: Axios states: “The massive amounts of heavy snow from the parade of storms have resulted in a statewide snowpack average of 251% for Jan. 17. Winter snow in the Sierra Nevada Mountains provides water supplies during the dry season”
Yet, these storms were so large they made a mockery out of the cult belief California is in perpetual drought, as Yale argues. For the most simplistic Los Angeleno realizes that more water than their state could use in a year probably fell in a few weeks. But pompous ideologues repeatedly stated this flooding could NOT solve the drought. See: California storms likely won’t make a big dent in drought. Why? Because this doesn’t fit into the Malthusian/Global Warming belief that the earth is cooking itself to death because of human greed, capitalism and ignorance.
For example, see California Drought: New research ties specific extreme weather events to climate change: “The megadrought gripping the American West has generated the driest two decades in the region in at least 1,200 years, and human-caused climate change has fueled the proble.” Yet, we know CA’s problem is not technically droughts, but a simple failure to use what nature provides over the whole state. Further, by embracing the self-pitying Global Warming fable, these obdurate humanists refuse to gather in water already provided by the trillions of gallons. This is perverse, cruel, and a horrific lie perpetuated against the CA people.
And so, had CA simply, methodically built capacity and captured more water, CA would not be announcing a drought every few years & demanding folks conserve. But even when paid for by the billions, water projects were not done. See: “In 2014, California voters approved $7.12 billion in bonds for state water supply infrastructure projects. Of that, $2.7 billion was designated for water storage projects. But nearly 8 years later, there are no new dams or reservoirs, or other water storage projects to collect/store California’s winter runoff.”
See California Has Had the Same Water Infrastructure Since the 1960s:
“Sen. Feinstein said California has…“the same water infrastructure from when we were 16 million people.” It was around 1960 when California’s population hovered at the 16 million mark. California is now home to nearly 40 million people. California’s core water conveyance and storage infrastructure was designed more than a half century ago. It was in the late 1950s and early 1960s that construction began on the State Water Project—a massive set of reservoirs, aqueducts and pumping plants that store and deliver water up and down the state to 25 million Californians. The backbone of the project, including Lake Oroville and the California Aqueduct, was finished in the 1960s and early 1970s.”
Once the Golden State had it all figured out, but now CA is behind the times, becoming increasingly cruel. See: Despite California’s long drought, trillions of gallons of rainwater wastefully flowing into sea. “The State handled previous droughts in 1976 & 1988. But, the last five-year drought, from 2012 to 2016, brought a 25% mandatory reduction in urban use. Crops died, farmers went out of business and then-Gov. Jerry Brown proposed fining residents $10,000 a day for wasting water.” See Does drought-prone California need another reservoir? YES!! & 8 trillion fell in 2021.
The current drought is experienced in a state that stopped doing water infrastructure at half the population – 16 million – then it has now – 40 million. CA desperately needs more water capacity, highlighted by these sky river storms. See Politico: “To many, the storms highlight the need for changes to the vast system to capture rain and snow in the wetter northern part of the state and transfer it to the farms of the Central Valley and the cities of Southern California. Much of the recent runoff has ended in the sea, even as forecasters warn that the drought is not yet over.”
So, in a nutshell, CA is under the thrall of a political/scientific cult. It’s has doubled its population since its last reservoir was dug, 40 years ago. Yet, if CA had simply kept a modest pace of building new water storage and improving the old, there would be NO DROUGHTS in CA.
And so we understand: that CA’s reaction to the issue of water scarcity is:
Pretend there's a permanent crisis;
Do nothing concrete about it;
Demagogue and politicize the issue;
Adapt to the past methods instead of updating them; &
Try to show that this all proves that we're here on Earth dying and there's nothing that can be done except adapt to our shrinking resources.

Musk Shows Political Bias Infests Mainstream Reporting Like White on Lice
Elon’s Followers, aka Muskets – Back his Exciting Free Speech Adventure
Once upon a time in the West – nobody really knew what Mr Elon Musk stood for except making mucho money with fiendishly clever creations like Tesla, SpaceX,& the Boring Company. Once, African-American Musk was worth a soaring $350 billion dollars. But, now he's supposedly lost the most ever – $182 billion in 2022.
But as Leftists across the globe celebrate with shouts, knowing nods and smug high-fives, we see this wasn't the result of Musk’s bad business decisions. Instead, the lashing out of angry socialists at a man who flew too close to the sun! One crazy enough to defy Marxism, aka reality itself!! And it was angry leftists (pardon the redundancy), who attacked Tesla’s stock price to kill his support of Liberty.
As we discovered long ago: Socialism always needs lies and tricks to survive
Musk traded cheap, popular applause to serve American freedom. Is that too dramatic? He’s now hated for a supposed Pro Trump bias, as the Orange One flounders. But Elon's goal in buying Twitter for $44 billion obviously means much more. He was willing to dump more than the net worth of the 28th richest human into his cause to double down for Liberty. Musk is willing to fight for free speech and fair treatment in the world’s premier venue, Twitter. Instead of allowing it to continue as a celebrated socialist cesspool and Democrat sewer, their chief “remedy” to three isms – Capitalism, Constitutionalism and Republicanism.
So Musk – who may have once been worth more at his peak than any man in history – now reveals himself as a romantic who cares most about Freedom, Liberty and Justice. Elon is therefore willing to spend a literal fortune to give free speech a chance in Woke America. In fact Musk's instincts were so strong it’s stated he guessed that every Twitter conspiracy theory turned out to be true.
So, the risks Musk takes may break his company, ergo – this gamble is one of the biggest in history. By a man who specializes in risk. To launch a foray at aiding a troubled, sick and hypocritical land is a remarkable adventure. Elon didn’t waste time by exposing how the FBI paid for censorship and was part of a societal-wide move to discredit Liberty as a tool of far right oppression. While Hunter Biden was protected like a heroin addicted Baby Buddha. Oh, my!!
So Leftists believe all their ideas are correct and so violations must be punished. Yet, what Leftists think of as “truth” is merely changeable liberal consensus. Compare: “What Is Natural Law? A theory in ethics and philosophy that says human beings possess intrinsic values that govern their reasoning and behavior. Natural law maintains these rules of right and wrong are inherent in people and are not created by society or court judges.”
Leftists, in their brazen yet illiterate pomposity, actually believe “truth” emanates from dirty political fighting instead of a pristine, all knowing and all loving Deity. The left Twisted this concept and now anything that goes against the liberal consensus is seen as naturally false and easily disproved. And so we watch illiterate, leftist journalists constantly chopping in the woodshed of sophistry and demodgraphy to craft “truth” out of falsehoods. Creating demons by fashioning golden calves.
Ultimately, the attacks against Musk are yet another book in the library of the continuing Marxist propaganda mill, feeding on the insipid lies of sniveling progressives. The propaganda mill spins out the fables of Marxist and Communists, taking over US Universities. Hollywood, Big Corps, Mainstream Media, US Education, sports, etc. This offers a warning that anyone daring to stand against the woke powers that be will be destroyed
Now the Fed Government masquerades as 1984: “You had to live – did live, from habit that became instinct – in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every moment scrutinized. ..”
So what to make of Elon Musk, Romantic – doing his part to save Liberty in 2023? And for all you shocked leftists, furiously planning to take Elon, down…don't for a minute think you can bet against him, as he’s already conquered a world. And now, Musk is just getting started on slugging it out for Freedom. Together, we can hobble socialism in our lifetime if we join together and strive as one. Viva la Liberte!!

Pope Emeritus Ratzinger’s Death Reveals New Perils for Sclerotic & Heretical Church
Only Way to Fix Holy Roman Catholic Church Crisis is Ending Clerical Celibacy Debacle
From Pope Benedict’s death, the last day of 2022, at age 92, Catholics now have a parade view of the sad difference between Pope Benedict's v. Pope Francis’ style of leadership. It paints a disastrous scenario for declining communal health. The symbolism of a Church whose last vestiges of Law and Order and commitment to biblical principles was buried today after lying in a state of repose is a ghastly reminder.
The current Pope debauches the Church for postmodernism, with nothing but debates, abandonment and collapse resulting. Recall when Benedict, aka Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger, resigned, as John Paul II’s “defender of the faith.” Benedict startlingly claimed he quit to fight the ‘Vatican’s gay cabal’ operating at the highest levels. See, “Gay cabal forces Benedict’s resignation!”
Andrew Sullivan, gay journalist and Catholic wrote: The Corruption of the Vatican’s Gay Elite Has Been Exposed, commenting on Frédéric Martel's -- “In the Closet of the Vatican: Power, Homosexuality, Hypocrisy. ” Martel states an ultra majority of priests are gay. See “Vatican Vice: Drink, drugs, porn and rent-boys taint the image of the Holy See”:
“There’s ample examples of Vatican residents treading the dark side, like gay priests using services of rent-boys catering to clerics. Former priest Patrizio Poggi, a convicted pedophile, told Italian police a Carabinieri police officer ‘pimped’ young male prostitutes from gay discos, saunas and a bar called Twink near Rome’s main train station for Vatican City priests and officials.”
So what difference does a gay cabal make in the Vatican? In fact, it’s in complete contradiction with Vatican teachings. Further, if the Church believes gays are "Intrinsically Disordered”, then why does the Pope seem to flirt with the idea of gay priests, claiming he has no moral right to judge their behavior? Also, why would the Vatican gather gay priests if the Church is opposed? See: 80% of priests in the Vatican are gay: new book. Says Martel:
“Still, for Pope Benedict XVI, the uninterrupted sequence of revelations about sexual abuse in the Church was more than a ‘season in hell’. It struck at the heart of the Ratzinger system and its theology. Whatever the public denials and positions of principle might have been, Benedict was well aware deep inside, I would dare to say from experience, that celibacy, abstinence and the failure to acknowledge the homosexuality of priests were at the heart of the whole scandal. His thought, minutely elaborated at the Vatican for four decades, exploded into pieces. This intellectual failure must have contributed to his resignation.”
It would be hard to imagine a more profound sense of Cognitive dissonance. The Church, according to official Catholic policy defines gay sexuality as “acts of grave depravity”, as “intrinsically disordered” and “contrary to the natural law.” At the same time 3rd in command of the Vatican Cardinal Pell was convicted of sex assaults against preteen boys. Once again the church did nothing to quell the Raging Fire. But now Pell, fresh from prison, salutes Pope Ratzinger who opposed his cabal.
But consider the vast damage the church has absorbed from the mindless Pope Francis, who's inflicted postmodernism on the church. In fact, if Frances were a CEO of a major corporation- which the Roman Catholic Church certainly is an analogy of – Francis would have been fired in a shareholder revolt for having destroyed every important element of the corporation. Francis has single-handedly destroyed the reason any open-minded person might decide to join.
Consider that Francis claims hell does no exist:
Interview with the Italian newspaper La Repubblica, Mar 28, 2018: When asked where bad souls are punished, Francis replied: “They are not punished, those who repent obtain the forgiveness of God and enter the rank of souls who contemplate him, but those who do not repent and cannot therefore be forgiven disappear. There is no hell, there is the disappearance of sinful souls.”
Francis also claims even fierce opponents of Christ go to heaven, even Muslims – who may have in following their beliefs killed Christians: “We must never forget that Moslems ‘profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, who will judge humanity on the last day’.” Evangelii Gaudium, November, 2013. Add to this Francis' open war with Donald Trump even traveling to the Border of the United States to wage a PR campaign against his presidency.
Pope Francis' reply to critics of gay priests, “Who am I to judge”? But isn't it true the majority of these unmarried priests are gay, running loose & causing havoc? See, The priesthood is being crucified on the cross of celibacy:
We cannot bring about real reform of the Roman Catholic priesthood unless we do away with mandatory celibacy for diocesan priests in the Latin rite. Why would that improve the priesthood? It would make priests more honest about ourselves and sexuality.
Let's face it – the ancient Holy Roman Church is now fully postmodern. And Francis represents the new spirit of the church so much more than expired Pope Ratzinger. In the end analysis – that's the entire problem – isn't it?
