Every once in a while something happens in this country that is an iconic representation of the times we live in. Perhaps none so apropos as the projection of Kali, the dread Indian goddess of death. Isn't it appropriate that the Indian goddess of Death should be displayed in a country that has harvested and dismembered 55 million babies? Isn't it appropriate that the god of "Thugs", the murderous gangs of India who called themselves "children of Kali", should be seen prominently on one of Americas greatest landmarks when thugs are given more protection on our streets than policement? Isn't it appropriate that the black erotic goddess should reign over NYC while Sodomites parade their abomination in front of our families and children?
Solomon, speaking through the Spirit of God, perhaps said it best...
Proverbs 8:33 Hear instruction, and be wise , and refuse it not. 34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. 35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. 36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

What a sick sad world we live in. One wonders what the last holdouts of Sodom and Gomorrah were thinking. Do we leave this place? Do we fight?

Imagine how the Puritans and Founding Fathers would feel if they could see this...
But if you left this place...where would you?

The ‘gods’ running rampant these days:
Allah
ISIS
Kali (?)
Isn’t it funny, in the odd sort of way, that millions will be provoked by these ‘gods.’ Consider this for a while, that the provocateurs of our time are able to strike fear into the populace with images of false gods/demons and cause people to take worshipful actions, in a vain attempt to dissuade the anger of the god before them.

Isiah 5:20 come to mind also
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

NYC is the abortion capital of our morally decadent nation. It should be the missionary capital.

A scripture for O’Venal to meditate on particularly in light of the ‘not a treaty’ treaty with Iran.

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil;
That is my tag line.

This is just disgusting. My God, the God of the Holy Bible, will not be mocked.
This is also rather ironic news, at least for me. I just learned that at CERN, the Large Hadron Collider, in Switzerland, they have placed a statue of Lord Shiva Nataraja. Lord Shiva is apparently the god of destruction and transformation and is considered one of the three main Hindu gods.

Isn't it appropriate that the god of "Thugs", the murderous gangs of India who called themselves "children of Kali", should be seen prominently on one of Americas greatest landmarks when thugs are given more protection on our streets than policement?Exactly what I was going to post.
For background, read Kipling's Gunga Din which revolves around the British effort to suppress Thuggee.

That’s probably a homage to Robert Oppenheim’s quote.

Will do! Thank you! To stop abortion, perhaps we need to do what Charles Napier did to Sati in India...
"Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs."

Kali, ( Sanskrit: She Who Is Black or She Who Is Death)
in Hinduism, goddess of time, doomsday, and death, or the black goddess (the feminine form of Sanskrit kala, time-doomsday-death or black). Kalis origins can be traced to the deities of the village, tribal, and mountain cultures of South Asia who were gradually appropriated and transformed, if never quite tamed, by the Sanskritic traditions. She makes her first major appearance in Sanskrit culture in the Devi Mahatmya (The Glorifications of the Goddess, c. 6th century ce). Kalis iconography, cult, and mythology commonly associate her not only with death but also with sexuality, violence, and, paradoxically, in some later traditions, with motherly love.

The founding fathers, and especially the puritans are the ones who made this inevitable.

I find this quite frightening to see displayed like this!
This ‘goddess’ often is shown with decapitated heads as her necklace!
Something very, very wicked is afoot.
