All men were by nature foolish who were in ignorance of God,
and who from the good things seen did not succeed in knowing him who is,
and from studying the works did not discern the artisan;

But either fire, or wind, or the swift air,
or the circuit of the stars, or the mighty water,
or the luminaries of heaven, the governors of the world, they considered gods.

Now if out of joy in their beauty they thought them gods,
let them know how far more excellent is the Lord than these;
for the original source of beauty fashioned them.

Or if they were struck by their might and energy,
let them from these things realize how much more powerful is he who made them.

For from the greatness and the beauty of created things
their original author, by analogy, is seen.

But yet, for these the blame is less;
For they indeed have gone astray perhaps,
though they seek God and wish to find him.

For they search busily among his works,
but are distracted by what they see, because the things seen are fair.

But again, not even these are pardonable.

For if they so far succeeded in knowledge
that they could speculate about the world,
how did they not more quickly find its Lord?

Wisdom 13:1-9

Calvin Coolidge in an address to the Society of American Newspaper Editors on January 17, 1925 in Washington, D.C.:

“After all, the chief business of the American people is business. They are profoundly concerned with producing, buying, selling, investing and prospering in the world. I am strongly of the opinion that the great majority of people will always find these the moving impulses of our life.”
That was then, but in the fundamentally transformed obamanation Donald J. Trump has taken on, the swamp’s motto is:
"We're not happy till you're not happy!"
It was “Game Over”, but we weren’t going to Disney Land ... we’re going to (be) Venezuela!

Somehow, right before our very eyes, “They” owned US and had been parting US out like a donor car, and all the while doing bad things in our name around the world.

A few could see it, and a few more sensed it, but not enough. “America”? She’s dead, Jim.

And then, a miracle: President Donald J. Trump!

He got busy, as promised, effectively working to rehabilitate and restore America's once promised glory back into the fundamentally transformed, broken-windowed obamanation we’d become.

And it's happening, too! Here and abroad. Even in N. Korea?!? Whoa...never saw that comin’...

As such, the bankruptcy bound owners of “AmeriCo”, their ideological true believers, the followers and the hypnotized media watchers are not at all happy with President Trump!

Check the list of exit interviews, voluntary and not(!), along with the many, many “temps” whose contracts won’t be renewed and who won’t be called back. (Draining the swamp)

And all of the plots and plans against first candidate and now President Trump that fell instead upon the planners and plotters! With more to come!

Yep, never saw any of that comin’, either, and it ALL makes me very happy!

This truly is The Greatest Show On Earth.

Godspeed and God bless you, President Donald J. Trump, and all you’’ve brought with you!

Continue working to free US and the world from the evil that has ensnared us.

WWG1WGA WYSIWYG
(It is what it is, whatever it is)

Because, then came election 2020 and it all changed back.

Oh well ... it was fun while it lasted! Like being in the eye of the storm for those four years or so while President Trump was in office, but the eye has now passed and it’s back to that old “new normal” again. “They” win, we lose.

Thank YOU, Donald J. Trump! You fought the good fight better than anyone could have against all enemies both foreign and domestic … and it’s not over yet.

Long ago, in the time before machines, a farmer, his wife and their two sons tended their small farm.

They were average, hard working people, the same as their neighbors, of course, but with one exception: they owned a beautiful stallion.

The other farmers would frequently gather at his fence, admiring that beautiful horse while telling their stories, you know, the way farmers do.

One morning when the farmer when out to tend to his animals, he was shocked to discover the stallion was gone. The gate was broken open and that beautiful horse was gone.

The news spread quickly and soon the neighbors were gathered at the now empty corral, saying how horrible it was and what a terrible thing to have happened!

The old farmer only said, “Maybe it is. Maybe it isn’t. We’ll just have to wait and see.”

Not many days later, as the farmer went out to tend to the animals early in the morning, the farmer was surprised to see his stallion had returned! And, not only had he returned, he brought 4 young, wild mares with him!!

The news spread quickly and soon the neighbors were gathered at the now full corral saying how wonderful it is! ... what a terrific thing to happen!

But the old farmer simply said, “Maybe it is. Maybe it isn’t. We’ll just have to wait and see.”

Soon it became time to break those young mares and teach them to allow a saddle and rider and this job fell to the oldest son.

The first 3 mares were easy, but the last mare was very strong and even stronger-willed with a LOT of spirit.

It fought and bucked wildly, eventually throwing the son to the ground. Unfortunately he landed poorly, breaking his leg!

The news spread quickly and soon the neighbors were gathered at the corral fence saying how horrible it was ... what a terrible thing to happen!

The old farmer paused and said, “Maybe it is. Maybe it isn’t. We’ll just have to wait and see.”

About this same time, the King was deciding to have a war with the neighboring King and he sent his men searching throughout his kingdom to gather all of the oldest sons for his army to fight against his new enemy, the King next door.

But when they arrived at the farmer’s home, they found the oldest son had a broken leg, and so they left without him.

The news spread quickly and soon the neighbors were gathered at the corral saying how wonderful it is! ... what a terrific thing to happen!

The old farmer said, “Maybe it is. Maybe it isn’t. We’ll just have to wait and see.”

.... To be continued ....

We’ll just have to wait and see what happens next, but I do know what that old farmer will say about it.

Following the Commander-in-Chief Forum, Sept. 7, 2016, between presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, Hillary had a meltdown, as described here:

“You really had to see this to believe it. She came apart – literally unglued; she is the most foul-mouthed woman I’ve ever heard … and that voice at screech level … awful!”

“She screamed she’d get that f…..ing Lauer fired for this.”

Referring to Donald Trump, Clinton said:

“If that f - - - ing bastard wins, we all hang from nooses!
Lauer’s finished ... and if I lose it’s all on your heads for screwing this up.”
Whoa ... and so he was. Bye, Matt.

Does that mean that next comes the nooses? ‘cause I’m gonna need a LOT more popcorn ... wahoo!

Alas, to all things a season and this one ended with the return to our originally intended programming.

What can explain US to ourselves and how we got so far off track? Actually, there are several things happening at the same time.

Here is one explanation from Miami Vice, season 2 episode 1: Prodigal Son when Crockett and Tubbs confront J. J. Johnston, the evil banker pulling the levers of power behind the curtain.

Apparently, I’m not the only one who remembered this scene, as I got the dialogue from here:

"Hi there, we're the cops you've been trying to kill," Crockett says forcefully.

Johnston, his back to them in a gesture of disrespect, proceeds to display his inside knowledge of the cops' anemic bank accounts and debt troubles.

Crockett remains unimpressed: "You goin' somewhere with this, or are you just runnin' laps?"

The patrician Johnston sits down, pours a glass of water, and contemplates it.

The Value of Money

“Money is a commodity, like oil or water," Johnston soliloquizes, in a superior manner. "And that American dollar, is the best brand there is in the world.

Now those of us who have it, can make more of it, by loaning it to those that don't.

Not so long ago, our bank loaned a lot of money to our friends in Latin America. We are talking about hundreds of millions of dollars.

Now they aren't going to repay that by selling straw bags and clay pots. If these Latin borrowers default, we would be decimated.

And we are America. We are the entire free world. When we sneeze, everybody catches cold.

That is why, it's very, very important, that we nurture and protect our Latin brothers' major cash crops."

"Especially those that he measures in kilos," Tubbs offers slyly.

"Are you sure you wouldn't like a drink?" Johnston asks coldly.

What I want is answers," Crockett responds, with intensity.

"I want to know why a Wall Street address is running interference for a couple of bloodthirsty Colombian peasants.

I want to know why murder and mayhem are suddenly footnotes on a balance sheet."

"Look," Johnston counters condescendingly, like a parent talking to a child. "All you need to know is that you're just along for the ride. It's a big boat--why rock it?"

"I don't give a damn if it's the U.S.S. Enterprise, pal, or who's on it or why," Crockett retorts. "Our job is to rock it. And if it sinks--so what?"

"I doubt that's going to happen," Johnston counters, unbowed.

"No?" asks Tubbs a bit playfully. "How's it go now?

Discreet phone call to some Ivy League buddy?

A little button-down talking and suddenly two South Dade cops become tin ducks in a shooting gallery, without backup for a major bust."

"That door," Johnston utters, dismissing them, "leads to the outer hallway."

Tubbs goes to the door. Crockett follows.
He gets the last word.

"I can't touch you; I know that," Crockett tells Johnston. "Too many roadblocks and politics, favors.

But you're dirty, Ace. And I'm patient."

See what I mean? How many politicians, judges, CEOs, etc. would it take to make America work the way you wanted it to?

From Wikipedia:

“Confirmation bias, also called confirmatory bias or myside bias, is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's preexisting beliefs or hypotheses. It is a type of cognitive bias and a systematic error of inductive reasoning.

People display this bias when they gather or remember information selectively, or when they interpret it in a biased way. The effect is stronger for emotionally charged issues and for deeply entrenched beliefs.”

The definition of Conundrum is something that is puzzling or confusing.

Here are the Six Conundrums of Socialism in the United States of America:

1. America is capitalist and greedy - yet half of the population is subsidized.

2. Half of the population is subsidized - yet they think they are victims.

3. They think they are victims - yet their representatives run the government.

4. Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keep getting poorer.

5. The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things that people in other countries only dream about.

6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about - yet they want America to be more like those other countries.

And, while all of the above may be unexplainable, it explains everything!

What a Conundrum!

-------------

Moral certainty is always a sign of cultural inferiority.
The more uncivilized the man, the surer he is that he knows precisely what is right and what is wrong.

All human progress, even in morals, has been the work of men who have doubted the current moral values, not of men who have whooped them up and tried to enforce them.

The truly civilized man is always skeptical and tolerant, in this field as in all others.
His culture is based on "I am not too sure.”
--H.L. Mencken

-------------

These six [things] doth the Lord hate: yea, seven [are] an abomination unto him:
A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
A false witness [that] speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
--Proverbs 6:16-19

Seven Dangers to Human Virtue

1. Wealth without work
2. Pleasure without conscience
3. Knowledge without character
4. Business without ethics
5. Science without humanity
6. Religion without sacrifice
7. Politics without Principle
~Mahatma Gandhi

“ “You know what's wrong with scientific power?" Malcolm said.
“”It’’s a form of inherited wealth. And you know what assholes congenitally rich people are. It never fails."

Hammond said, "What is he talking about?””
Harding made a sign indicating delirium.
Malcolm cocked his eye.

“”I will tell you what I am talking about," he said.
"Most kinds of power require a substantial sacrifice by whoever wants the power.
There is an apprenticeship, a discipline lasting many years.
Whatever kind of power you want. President of the company. Black belt in karate. Spiritual guru.
Whatever it is you seek, you have to put in the time, the practice, the effort.
You must give up a lot to get it. It has to be very important to you.
And once you have attained it, it’s your power. It can't be given away: it resides in you.
It is literally the result of your discipline.

Now what is interesting about this process is that,
by the time someone has acquired the ability to kill with his bare hands,
he has also matured to the point where he won't use it unwisely.
So that kind of power has a built-in control.
The discipline of getting the you so that you won't abuse it.

But scientific power is like inherited wealth: attained without discipline.

You read what others have done, and you take the next step.
You can do it very young. You can make progress very fast.

There is no discipline lasting many decades.
There is no mastery: old scientists are ignored.
There is no humility before nature.
There is only a get-rich-quick, make-a-name-for-yourself-fast philosophy.
Cheat, lie, falsify--it doesn't matter.
Not to you, or to your colleagues.
No one will criticize you. No one has any standards.
They all trying to do the same thing: to do something big, and do it fast.”

“And because you can stand on the shoulders of giants, you can accomplish something quickly.
You don't even-know exactly what you have done,
but already you have reported it; patented it, and sold it.”

“And the buyer will have even less discipline than you.
The buyer simply purchases the power, like any commodity.
The buyer doesn’t even conceive that any discipline might be necessary.””

Hammond said, "Do you know what he is talking about?"
Ellie nodded.
““I haven't a clue”,” Hammond said.

“I’’ll make it simple,” Malcolm said.
"A karate master does not kill people with his bare hands.
He does not lose his temper and kill his wife.

The person who kills is the person who has no discipline no restraint,
and who has purchased his power in the form of a Saturday night special.”

“And that is the kind of power that science fosters, and permits.
And that is why you think that to build a place like this is simple."

"It was simple," Hammond insisted.

“Then why did it go wrong?"

The Serenity Prayer
by Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)

God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.

Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
Taking, as Jesus did,
This sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it,
Trusting that You will make all things right,
If I surrender to Your will,
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
And supremely happy with You forever in the next.

Amen.

Where Shall We Hide the Truth From Man?

"Where shall we hide the truth from man?"
The gods all cried when he was made.
"How can we guard our secret now?"
They asked each other most afraid.

"Hide it in the earth; he will mine it.
Hide it on a mountain; he will climb it.
Even in the sea he will find it.
Where shall we hide the truth from man?"

Quite beside themselves, they cried:
"This little guy will take our throne.
We have made him far too smart
Not to claim our heaven home

Hide it in matter, he'll analyze it.
Hide it in the water, he'll crystallize it.
Even in hell, he'll surmise it.
Where shall we hide the truth from man?"

They thought of stars in outer space
Or in the nature of a tree,
But they knew that man could solve
Each and every mystery.

"Hide it in the wind, he'll pursue it.
Hide it in an act, he will do it.
Even in an atom, he will view it.
Where shall we hide the truth from man?"

Then they solved the mystery
Of how the frightened gods should win.
The wisest said, "Let's take the truth
And hide it deep inside of him.

Hide it in his heart, he will doubt it
Hide it in his soul, he'll live without it
Even if we should reveal and shout it,
He won't believe the truth is within him."

-Yogananda

-------------

Unselfishness, which makes men free, is attained only through the patience of small daily acts of self-denial. By this daily passion, which alone reveals to a man in how many ways he is enslaved by his own ego, by this daily passion and by it alone, a man’s eyes are slowly opened. He sees only to the extent that he has lived and suffered.

If today we are scarcely able any longer to become aware of God, that is because we find it so easy to evade ourselves, to flee from the depths of our being by means of the narcotic of some pleasure or other. Thus our own interior depths remain closed to us.

If it is true that a man can see only with his heart, then how blind we are!

From an email:

Inherited Wealth

Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the much older woman that she should bring her own grocery bags,
because plastic bags weren't good for the environment.

The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this 'green thing' back in my earlier days."

The young clerk responded, "That's our problem today."
"Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations."

She was right -- our generation didn't have the 'green thing' in its day.

Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store.
The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled,
so it could use the same bottles over and over.
They really were recycled.

But we didn't have the "green thing" back in our day.

Grocery stores bagged our groceries in brown paper bags, that we reused for numerous things.
Most memorable besides household garbage bags, was the use of brown paper bags as book covers for our schoolbooks.
This was to ensure that public property, (the books provided for our use by the school) was not defaced by our scribbling.
Then we were able to personalize our books on the brown paper bags.

But too bad we didn't do the "green thing" back then.

We walked up stairs, because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building.
We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks.

But she was right. We didn't have the "green thing" in our day.

Back then, we washed the baby's diapers because we didn't have the throwaway kind.
We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine burning up 220 volts -- wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days.
Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing.

But that young lady is right; we didn't have the "green thing" back in our day.

Back then, we had one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room.
And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana.
In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us.
When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap.
Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn.
We used a push mower that ran on human power.
We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.

But she's right; we didn't have the "green thing" back then.

We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water.
We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen,
and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.

But we didn't have the "green thing" back then.

Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked,
instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service in the family's $45,000 SUV or van,
which cost what a whole house did before the "green thing."
We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances.
And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest burger joint.

But isn't it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the "green thing" back then?

Please forward this on to another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from a smartass young person...

We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to piss us off...
especially coming from a tattooed, multiple pierced smartass who can't make change without the cash register telling them how much.

--Email, Author unknown.

(The thing I don’t understand is how generations who grew up living life as we, our parents and grandparents did raised these "tattooed and multiple pierced smartasses who can’t make change without a machine telling them how." How did we get here from there? How did this happen?
Somehow I don't think Common Core is going to make it better, just like a common cold doesn't make a body better.

Communist Goals (1963)

Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963
EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, January 10, 1963

Mr. HERLONG. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land, Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting the public to the dangers of communism in America.

At Mrs. Nordman's request, I include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following "Current Communist Goals," which she identifies as an excerpt from " The Naked Communist ", by Cleon Skousen:

Current Communist Goals (1963)

1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.

3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.

4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.

6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.

7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.

8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.

9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.

10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.

11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)

12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.

14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.

15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.

18. Gain control of all student newspapers.

19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.

25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a "religious crutch."

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."

29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."

31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.

44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.

45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.

From "Where is your America?" by Libor Brom, IMPRIMIS; Hillsdale College, Hillsdale, Michigan, 49242 Vol 11, No. 8., August 1982

The fact is that we live in a time of fateful challenges. As a people and a nation we are under test. This challenge is, of course, Marxism-Leninism. There is no mystery in its strategies and tactics. It has always been concrete and spelled out in black and white. It has also been openly and actively tested in the economic, political, and ideological struggle for control around globe.

Lenin, the founder of the first Communist state, put it simply:

"First we will take Eastern Europe, then the masses of Asia. We will encircle the last bastion of capitalism, the United States of America. We will not need to fight. It will fall as a ripe fruit into our hands."
And,
"We must practice coexistence with other nations, until we are strong enough to take over by means of world revolution.... We are not pacifists. Conflict is inevitable. Great political questions can be solved only through violence.... It is inconceivable that Communism and capitalism can exist side by side. Inevitably one must perish."

Rykov, Lenin's successor in the Council of Soviet Commissars, corroborated:

"It is our duty to inculcate in the minds of nations the theories of international friendship, pacifism, and disarmament, encouraging their resistance to military appropriations and training, without ever relaxing our own efforts in building our military equipment."

Manuilsky, a prominent Soviet professor at the School of Political Warfare, said:

"The bourgeoisie will have to be put to sleep. We shall begin by Launching the most spectacular peace movement on record. There will be electrifying overtures and unheard-of concessions. The capitalist countries, stupid and decadent, will rejoice to cooperate in their own destruction. They will leap at another chance to be friends."

And Khrushchev, a more contemporary Soviet prime minister, said:

"We cannot expect Americans to jump from capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans doses of socialism until they suddenly awake to find out they have Communism."

Today, Marxism-Leninism represents a most complex and powerful doctrine developed by Communist theoreticians and practitioners in every corner of the world. Its universal library offers dynamic political weapons and comprehensive theories, diversified approaches and seductive slogans.

On one side of the globe, there is the Yugoslav moderate theory of reformed Communism and participative economy which lures masses into socialism.
On the other side of the earth there are Chinese slogans which are more productive in inflaming a Communist revolution.

Marxism-Leninism is particularly effective on the semantic level where it exhibits a devastating duality. It lulls its adversaries to sleep, while at the same time it mobilizes its followers to revolutionary action.

The Communist International's Seventh Congress concluded that open use of revolutionary terminology does not promote the Marxist-Leninist drive for world domination. Therefore, "revolution" has been changed into "liberation," "world conquest by the proletariat" has been changed into "peace and socialism," "armed seizure of power and liquidation of the bourgeoisie" has been rephrased to read "peaceful and gradual transition to socialism."

Even the word "Communism," which every revolutionary is so proud of, has been changed into "progressive", "anti-Fascist" or "liberal." Further, to confuse their adversaries, the Marxist-Leninists have devised a new language which uses old words in the basic vocabulary.

When they say "imperialism arouses the wrath of the people and digs its own grave," they mean "through our manipulation of the local Communist parties, and with a vast auxiliary corps of dupes and sympathizers, we so arrange matters that the free enterprise system and democracy are destroyed from within. All we need to do is push it into the grave."

Thus, the free, complacent, conscience-stricken, guilt-ridden, sex-sodden, drug-driven, decadent, and often antagonistic societies have been manipulated by goal-oriented, dedicated, and shrewd Marxist-Leninist dialectics into a notorious period of so-called peaceful coexistence and plain overt hostilities.

I Will Resurrect Russia As I Have Resurrected Lazarus
January 4, 1988

"My beloved do you know what it is like losing a daughter? My Heart lacerated; I wept; like this was not enough, she, proudly and without the slightest remorse, declared openly war against Me, her Father, and against all the martyr saints! she believed in Me no more; she stopped worshipping Me hoping in Me and loving Me! she seemed to have forgotten the love we once shared; "

"I had given her sons and daughters but in her fury she slaughtered My children and handed them over to Satan as one offers a burnt offering; then, as though this was not enough, she turned to Satan and made a pact with him to be faithful to him and worship him instead, if he would offer her all what she desired; Satan agreed, with the condition to leave him free; Satan then disconnected her entirely from Me; she let him cut our bonds; he made her trust him; treacherous as he is, he led My daughter into marshlands first, where she would have to lean on him for fear of sinking into quicksands; she asked him to allow her to lean entirely on him;"

"Vassula, like Jerusalem at one time, who fled from My House, My House of Holiness, to become a daughter of no morals, offering her children one after the other as a sacrifice; Russia, My daughter, thought it wise to do the same; she took My Holy Presents offering them to Satan who turned them all into weapons; Satan blinded her with his glory and in her blindness removed her from the marshlands and placed her into the wilderness to thirst and die; I saw her walking naked and struggling in her own blood, I called her, but she would not listen; I called her again, but she would not hear My call; instead she provoked Me, calling her younger sisters to support her morals; if they refused she forced them with her sword; have I not said: "he who will raise the sword shall perish by the sword"?"

How To Create a Social State

(by Saul Alinsky?)

There are 8 levels of control that must be obtained before you are able to create a social state. The first is the most important.

1) Healthcare - Control healthcare and you control the people.

2) Poverty - Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.

3) Debt - Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.

4) Gun Control - Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state.

5) Welfare - Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income).

6) Education - Take control of what people read and listen to - take control of what children learn in school.

7) Religion - Remove the belief in God from the government and schools.

8) Class Warfare - Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.

“Do you think that we want those laws to be observed? We want them broken.
There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power the government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

"they will draw sword against your fine wisdom, they will defile your glory; they will throw you down into the pit and you will die a violent death surrounded by the seas; are you still going to parade as the High Priest clad in silver and gold? are you still going to say: I am a god, a Prophet, when your murderers confront you? no, you are a man, and not a god, in the clutches of your murderers! and you will die like the godless at the hand of the foreigners; "

What does 'third secret' mean? Official version of Catholic Church's Fatima prophesies debated

From THE MESSAGE OF FATIMA

Sister Lucia had already given an indication for interpreting the third part of the “secret” in a letter to the Holy Father, dated 12 May 1982:
“The third part of the secret refers to Our Lady's words: ‘If not [Russia] will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated' (13-VII-1917).

The Message Of Akita In Japan

On OCTOBER 13th, 1973, similar to the 13th of October in 1917 at FATIMA,--a "FINAL" message on the "CHASTISEMENT" that would befall the world, was received by Sister Sasagawa and it said:

1. If people do not repent, GOD will send a punishment and it will be more serious than the GREAT FLOOD.
2. Fire will fall from the sky—Most of humanity will be destroyed, even the good with the bad. Neither priests nor the faithful will be spared, and survivors will envy the dead.
3. The only weapon will be the The Rosary and the Sign of the Son.
4. Satan will enter the church.
5. CARDINALS, BISHOPS AND PRIESTS ARE ON THE ROAD TO PERDITION. Cardinals will be against Cardinals, Bishops will be against Bishops, and priests will be against priests. THIS IS SIMILAR TO WHAT PADRE PIO SAID, "THAT THE WORLD IS ON THE ROAD TO PERDITION IN HIS LETTER TO THE (4) VISIONARIES IN GARABANDAL IN 1962."
6. Churches and altars will be desecrated and Satan will lead priests away from GOD, and there will be no forgiveness, if sins continue.

-------------

   Jesus, someone mentioned some time ago to me that you will
give no more signs, You said it to the Pharisees; he said this when I
said that this guidance (message) is from You.

   Vassula, when I said this to the Pharisees I meant My miracles of
the time I was in flesh and among them; condemning Me now, for it is
to condemn My Heavenly Works, shows how arid and closed their
hearts have become; My signs will never end; My Presence will be felt
in the world and I will continue to show Myself in signs;

   believe, believe O men of little faith, do not distort My Word, for
what have you to say about Fatima; are you dreading to believe that I
am the One who gave you this sign? O men of little faith, what would
you not declare rather than accept that Heaven’s signs are from Me!
love my My Works, accept My Works; believe, believe in Me, I, who am
Infinite Wealth and Mercy; My signs are so that all men see that Love
has not forgotten you; Love has not withdrawn and glories in His
Glory; Love is among you, never leaving you;

The Garabandal Story
The Great Warning of God The Father

"The Garabandal Warning is unprecedented, in that it will be universal."
"All nations and all persons will experience it in the same way:
It will be visible throughout the entire world,
in whatever place anyone might be;
experienced equally by believers and non believers
and people of any religions whatsoever."

-------------

The Warning and the Miracle

-------------

Garabandal’s Prophecy About Communism

Mari Loli: "When Russia will unexpectedly and suddenly overrun and overwhelm a great part of the free world. God does not want this to happen so quickly. In any case the Warning will come when you will see that Holy Mass cannot be celebrated freely anymore; then it will be that the world will most need the intervention of God."

For our further reflection, keeping in mind that prophecy is a charism of the papacy, is this quote from Blessed Pius IX:

"There will come a great sign that will fill the world with awe. But this will occur only after the triumph of a revolution during which the Church will undergo ordeals which are beyond description."

We don't know when all this will happen, but Albrecht Weber's book contains this statement attributed to Conchita.

Conchita(?): "The pope will go to Russia, to Moscow. As soon as he returns to the Vatican, hostilities will break out in different parts of Europe.”

[The source for this information was also requested: Mr. Weber responded: "Conchita said this in a long conversation at her house on November 14, 1965.”]

-------------

According to Garabandal, communism will again be a force to be reckoned with in one final attempt at world domination.

On September 29, 1978, Father Francis Benac, S.J., interviewed Mari Loli at her home in Massachusetts. Here are some of the questions and answers pertinent to our subject.

FATHER BENAC: Did the Blessed Virgin speak of communism?

MARI LOLI: Our Lady spoke several times about communism. I don't remember how many times, but she said that a time would come when it would seem that communism had mastered or engulfed the whole world. I think it was then that she told us that priests would have difficulty saying Mass, and talking about God and divine things.

FR. BENAC: Did Our Lady ever speak of people being put to death?

LOLI: What Our Lady said was that priests would have to go into hiding but I didn't see whether they were being killed or not. She didn't exactly say they would be killed, but I'm sure they would be martyred.

FR. BENAC: Your mother told me that one night you were upstairs with your father and that you cried and cried for one hour. Afterwards your father said to her: "I have just seen the most touching sight. Loli was crying the whole time while saying, 'Oh, it's going to be like that? People are going to suffer like that? Oh, make me suffer!'" Do you remember what you said at the time?

LOLI: It was all related to communism and what is going to happen in the Church and to the people because all these things are to have repercussions amongst the people. When the Church suffers confusion, the people are going to suffer too. Some priests who are communists will create such confusion that people will not know right from wrong.

-------------

Conchita, one of the Garabandal visionaries, has stated the following regarding when the Great Miracle will occur:

'It will occur between the 8th and 16th March, April or May, on a Thursday at 8.30pm (year unspecified). It will be on the feast of a young martyr of the Eucharist and will coincide with a great ecclesiastical event in the Church.'

Scriptures Are A Mirror That Reflect Me

the shepherds are divided, opposing one another; they are living in a spiritual decay and if some still bear My Cross willingly and with zeal for My House, these too are persecuted by these transgressors; can they say that they punctiliously obeyed Me? if they say 'yes', then explain to Me your division; division is a sin; surely you know the meaning of: "every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand;" the distinctive sign of faith in them is missing: love is not there anymore ...

even if this division has not come directly from them but from their ancestors, they are fanning this fire that comes from the underground keeping it alive; so now, I am asking My shepherds to repent, offering Me a true metanoia, to allow, through this colossal power, a transfiguration to take place; a true metanoia is the gate that leads souls from darkness into light;

4-Abortion legalised in many nations.
5-The abortion pleases Satan, because Satan needs human sacrifice to gain power, and so abortion is practised daily with so many not even being aware that it becomes a free-giving cult to the Devil. The devil thirsts for blood and he gets it now from the innocent.

Natural-Born Citizen Defined

One universal point most all early publicists agreed on was natural-born citizen must mean one who is a citizen by no act of law. If a person owes their citizenship to some act of law (naturalization for example), they cannot be considered a natural-born citizen. This leads us to defining natural-born citizen under the laws of nature – laws the founders recognized and embraced.

Under the laws of nature, every child born requires no act of law to establish the fact the child inherits through nature his/her father’s citizenship as well as his name (or even his property) through birth. This law of nature is also recognized by law of nations. Sen. Howard said the citizenship clause under the Fourteenth Amendment was by virtue of “natural law and national law.”

The advantages of Natural Law is competing allegiances between nations are not claimed, or at least with those nations whose custom is to not make citizens of other countries citizens without their consent. Under Sec. 1992 of U.S. Revised Statutes (1866) made clear other nation’s citizens would not be claimed:

“All persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are declared to be citizens of the United States.”

Rep. John A. Bingham commenting on Section 1992 said it means “every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen.” (Cong. Globe, 39th, 1st Sess., 1291 (1866))

~Yoda

come and learn: however invisible I might appear, I am to be found all around you and in things I have made;
he who lives for Me will live with Me;
he who loves his neighbour has already overcome the world and is well in the same footprints of My Son, Jesus Christ, and on his way to My Kingdom;
yes, anyone who lives in love lives a True Life in Me;

I am your Father before your earthly father;
I have fathered you before your father of flesh;
bind yourself to Me so that you do not lose Me from your sight and dishonour yourself;
obey My principles but with a heart and not a rock;
resolve to do right for the rest of your life but with a taste of joy;
resolve to put an end to stifling My Holy Spirit of Grace around you so that you, too, can draw your breath in Him;

Daniel The Prophet

Daniel The Prophet (cont)
December 22, 1993

when My Day comes, the sun will turn as black as coarse sackcloth; the moon will be aflame and the very foundations of the earth will shake, and like entrails pouring out of an abdomen, the earth will vomit out its demons; when this happens, men will long for death but will not find it! then, the sky will roll like a scroll and immediately will dissolve in flames and all the elements will melt in the heat; that day is coming and sooner than you think; I will fullfil these prophecies in your own lifetime;

I'd Love to Change The World
Alvin Lee

Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no rich no more

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding economy
Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money, monopoly

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

World pollution, there's no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
Them and us, stop the war

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

In the meantime, I tend to believe that perspective is everything and

Everything is Beautiful.
