Smart Protestors Will Score Bigly on Blue Friday

In anticipation of a not guilty verdict in the sham trial of railroaded community activist and good Samaritan Kyle Rittenhouse, I thought it would be a good idea to help people prepare for the evening of the announcement.

According to PC Magazine, the Hisense 75U9DG is one of 2021’s top over-75″ TV sets. The review says this:

The 75U9DG uses what the company calls “dual cell” technology, which layers two LCDs on top of each other over an LED array backlight system to control how much light gets out much more precisely than a single LCD and LED array can. The results are impressive, with nearly OLED levels of contrast while offering a peak brightness far higher than an OLED panel can reach and maintaining plenty of detail across the board, with a much lower price than any MicroLED or DVLED TV.

I don’t know what more you could want. This beautiful set sells for around $3000, so if you keep it in the box, you should be able to resell it for about $500, and that should keep you and your crew set for weed for a good part of the holiday, not “Christmas,” because that would be racist, season.

The LG OLED83C1PUA, which has an 83″ screen that will humiliate everyone else in your dorm, halfway house, or Section 8 housing project, boasts OLED technology, plus AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync, “making it a terrific high-end option for gamers,” according to PC Magazine’s review. Needless to say, it would be spectacular for all forms of pirated pornography. You can buy it (just kidding) for about $6000, so a quick flip should net you enough hash oil to put you into 2022.

If you’re an early bird, consider the Sony Master Series XR-83A90. This 83″ set has it all. The OLED screen is very bright, and the color range is unparalleled. It has far-field microphones for Google Assistant voice control, so, as a person who hates all forms of honest, Eurocentric, patriarchal work, you will never have to strain your fashionably pliant wrist picking up the remote. It won’t wrestle itself onto the top of your decade-old Kia Soul, however. People who still pay for things will have to shell out $8000 for one of these sets, but if you get to Best Buy before everyone else, it’s yours for the taking.

Smart activists for needed social change will be parked at Best Buy several hours before the verdict is announced. Or, if you’re in enforcement-free zones such as San Francisco and New York, simply go ahead and grab the set of your choice today. Society owes it to you.

You may also want to stock up on tasteful four-figure athletic shoes for the discerning looter, as well as flagship liquor brands you don’t have the palate to appreciate.

We live in a world where perfect storms are weekly fare, and the Rittenhouse trial, Wisconsin’s tribute to Franz Kafka, is an example. It’s bad for a whole bunch of reasons.

1. It has helped convince violent, thieving leftists they will never be punished no matter what they do. Gaige Grosskreutz, the communist whom Rittenhouse crippled with one skillfully delivered shot, committed a whole host of crimes in his attacks on Kyle. He showed up with an illegal pistol, even though he already had one conviction for carrying illegally. He violated curfew. He pursued and attacked an innocent man he knew to be running to the police, drawing and pointing his illegal gun in the process. Instead of arresting him, Deputy DA Angelina Gabriele and her ethics-deprived lackeys have turned him into a local hero. Maybe Kenosha will build a statue of him, to replace a historical villain such as George Washington or the man who invented soap.

2. It has helped convince conservatives their government will use any excuse to put them in prison, even when they are victims, not criminals. This is actually true in many areas. It’s not an exaggeration. The system, including a Republican governor, turned on George Zimmerman, and now it’s doing its best to destroy the life of a kid who volunteers to protect businesses (with encouragement from the police) and clean up other people’s graffiti. When people think the law will not be enforced fairly, it stimulates illegal resistance.

3. It has convinced leftists who don’t understand (or want to understand) the law that it’s okay to pressure judges and jurors to “do the right thing.” This is incredible. How can anyone be that stupid? A man was caught shooting video of the Rittenhouse jurors. How would you like to be on that panel, knowing your name would soon be released to the slobbering rioter pool? How would you like to be on trial and see random morons trying to scare the jurors? Anyone over the age of 5 should be able to understand how dangerous it is to pressure judges and juries. It should be illegal. It is not a reasonable exercise of the right to self expression.

4. An acquittal will almost surely lead to leftist tantrums, causing millions of dollars’ worth of property destruction, the loss of many jobs, many injuries, and at least a handful of deaths. Deputy DA Angelina Gabriele should never have charged an innocent man. Apart from the illegality, the breach of ethics, the cruelty, and the immorality, she set America up for new riots. By setting her seal of approval on the unjust prosecution, she gave people who are not smart the impression that Rittenhouse was unquestionably guilty. A bright lawyer, and by “bright,” I mean unlike Gabriele, would have seen this coming. Geniuses generally don’t become district attorneys, however. District attorneys are generally politicians.

5. The trial will make some Americans afraid to arm or defend themselves, resulting in decreased deterrence and increased crime. So robbery and rape victims, and murder victims and their families, may have Angelina Gabriele and Assistant DA Thomas Binger, who is mishandling the trial, to thank.

You think prosecutors only go forward with strong cases? You think they aren’t corrupt? Go watch what Binger has done. He should have moved for dismissal as soon as he saw the evidence. Instead, because he knows Kyle is innocent and that knowledge has him in fear of losing, he is resorting to tactics such as commenting on Kyle’s choice to remain silent. That’s blatantly unconstitutional.

Quick story: a friend of mine was a prosecutor in Miami. A University of Miami athlete was arrested for delivering a beating to another student. If you know anything about UM’s history of fielding criminals, you will not be shocked. When Notre Dame used to play UM, their fans would show up in “Catholics vs. Convicts” shirts.

College athletes are typically physically gifted to begin with, and they also take performance-enhancing drugs and train under strength and conditioning coaches. It’s amazing how they transform. I knew a UM football player who had a physique like Mike Tyson. He was so strong, he beat up heavyweight contender Shannon Briggs outside a bar. When I saw him a few years later, he looked about as intimidating as Martin Lawrence. Without UM’s help, he did a reverse Hulk metamorphosis. If he ran into Shannon Briggs today, he would be in big trouble.

His girlfriend complained that he was always overheating. He had to have the air conditioning turned down very low in order to sleep at night. Guess what? Steroids make people feel hot and sweat more. I have no doubt that he was juicing, and I’m sure a huge percentage of other college athletes are doing it and getting away with it.

Anyway. getting a beating from a Division I football player in training is a very bad experience. The crime was serious.

My friend told me that Kathy Rundle, the State’s Attorney (same as a DA) had a chat with him, informing him that because the athlete was important to UM, he was going to sit down and make the victim agree to a lesser charge.

True story? I don’t see why not. My friend had no reason to lie to me, and he’s a liberal Jew. It’s not like I heard it from Steve Bannon.

This is how our legal system works. It’s astonishing that justice is ever done. The only way to assure that you don’t get an unfair result from our legal system is to avoid involvement with it.

Kyle should be acquitted, but unfortunately, juries are not very smart, and they are not accountable. A juror can side with a plaintiff because he likes his socks, and he can’t be penalized for it. If the jurors are all leftists (something the prosecutors have tried to assure), and they have no principles, Kyle will be convicted. If some are fair people or biased conservatives, he will walk.

My best guess is that he will walk, because the prosecution did the opposite of its job. It proved him innocent. It hammered the point home, over and over. “This man was defending himself. You will look like idiots if you convict. ” Even a biased jury is likely to have a few jurors who are not willing to do the wrong thing when the truth is sufficiently obvious.

In Wisconsin, a felony jury has to vote unanimously in order to convict. That’s a high bar for Binger to clear. One sane person can keep Kyle free.

This is why people who want to get a jump on Black Friday need to be scouting out the malls right now.

A just verdict of not guilty will send leftists out into the streets with their shopping lists and revenge lists. An unfair conviction will send conservatives…nowhere. They will not riot.

Legal experts are calling for Binger’s disbarment. I don’t know if that’s realistic, but it shows that his misdeeds are egregious enough to drive trained attorneys to put their reputations on the line with their public demands.

Lawyers have to obey rules of ethics, and some of the rules are very harsh. They are not always enforced, however. For example, in Florida, a lawyer who makes a misrepresentation to a tribunal is guilty of a disbarment offense. I had an attorney do this in a lawsuit directed at me, and nothing came of it. Out of all the actors in a typical courtroom, the lawyers are least likely to lie, but it does happen, and if you look at bar disciplinary actions, you won’t see people being disbarred for it. Generally, it’s for stealing or failing to do their jobs.

I don’t know how the Wisconsin bar will feel about a prosecutor commenting on a defendant’s silence in a single case. It doesn’t sound like something they would get excited about, especially if the Wisconsin Supreme Court, which oversees attorney discipline, is tilted leftward. On the one hand, leftists jurists love defendants and look for opportunities to weaken prosecutors, but on the other, they generally hate Kyle.

My wild guess, based on no research: Binger survives.

It’s distressing to see how the world has abandoned the truth and cozied up to lies. Right now, respected journalists, as well as less-respected people such as Illtwitterates, are stating, as fact, that the judge in the Rittenhouse made a racist remark. Anything to discredit his pro-defense rulings and a possible acquittal.

Have you read the remark? Off the coast of California, thanks to Joe Biden, Gavin Newsom, and unions, container ships from Asia and other places are stacked up, waiting to be unloaded. Before a lunch break, the judge said, “I hope the Asian food isn’t coming . . . isn’t on one of those boats along Long Beach Harbor.” I am omitting a few words, because he dithered a little.

That’s his big racist remark. In order for it to be racist, it has to be a negative remark about Asians. How are people finding that negativity in the remark? Just like the Supreme Court found the right to murder the unborn in the Constitution. They’re imagining it.

Asians sent us stuff, so they did their jobs. Now it’s stuck in transit because Americans are doing stupid things. The judge didn’t criticize Asians who made or shipped the stuff. He’s not even criticizing the food, which doesn’t exist, because he was making a joke.

The perpetual-offense crowd imagined an insult anyway because the judge has been doing his job. Their fantasy is that a not guilty verdict can be overturned because a judge made a joke that offended them.

That’s not how appeals courts work. It’s impossible, or at least nearly so, to overturn a not guilty verdict regardless of what the judge does. Once a jury has been empaneled, the defendant is in jeopardy. That means he is in danger of being convicted. If he is acquitted after that point, he’s free. He can even go on talk shows telling people he committed the crime. Our Constitution doesn’t permit double jeopardy for the same crime.

The big exception is that you can be charged both federally and on the state level for the same crime. Will Biden’s corrupt DOJ go that far with Rittenhouse? My guess: no. Prosecutors don’t like to lose, and the DOJ’s prosecutors know this case is a loser.

I am not an expert on double jeopardy, so I don’t know if there are any other ways to retry someone who has been acquitted, but if there are, it’s an extremely rare thing.

Basically, you can appeal a conviction for a wide range of reasons, but acquittals are forever.

I wonder how offended they would be if the judge hadn’t chewed Binger out repeatedly. What if he had ruled for him consistently? Asian leftists would probably be posting smiley emojis all over the web.

When I talk to my friend Mike these days, I look for ways to interject, “Because you’re a racist,” into the conversation over and over. Because he’s a racist? No, because his son and daughter-in-law think he’s a racist for refusing to repost BLM insanity on Facebook for them, offending his numerous Facebook friends, actual friends, and business contacts. Mike will say something like, “I can’t believe what Biden said today,” and I’ll reply, “That’s because you’re a racist.”

It’s our way of singing on the way to the gallows. We know the left is insane, unforgiving, and unfair, so we know every person who isn’t on their side about everything is now considered racist, sexist, fattist, transphobic, homophobic, performative, ageist, carnivorous, classist, anti-vaxxist, pro-boomer, and anti-science. It’s our way of reminding each other that the opprobrium of the left is unrelated to guilt or innocence. It is in no way our fault, and there is nothing we can do about it.

Of course the judge is racist. We’re all racist. You’re racist. The prosecutor is racist. The squirrels in my yard are racist. The sky is racist. The only way to not be racist is to be black, and then you can do things like shooting white people on a train, while saying it’s because they’re white, and not be a racist. Colin Ferguson did that. You may think he’s a racist and murderer, but in fact, he is a protestor and social justice warrior. The official leftist position is that no black person can be racist.

Historically, logic has never had a strong foothold on Earth, and whatever purchase it had is gone. About 400 years ago, a bunch of primarily white people (so sorry, forgive me, unpardonable) ushered in what was known as the Age of Enlightenment. Great thinkers were able to promulgate the revolutionary idea that reason was important, and this led to all sorts of advancements in technology and other endeavors. The current millennium is a mirror image: the Age of Unenlightenment. We had reason, we didn’t like it, so we want the Dark Ages back. Enough of the White Age, I guess.

Even “enlightenment” is a racist term. We need endarkenment!

Leftists are excoriating the judge even as they fight for anti-Asian quotas at universities. Good gravy; that cognitive dissonance is something!

The new age of benign stupidity is being ushered in by Kyle Rittenhouse, an alleged white supremacist who only shoots white people. White men, I should say. Women aren’t white, because they’re oppressed. Even when they have penises.

WHERE ARE KURT VONNEGUT AND JOSEPH HELLER WHEN WE NEED THEM?

It appears safe to say that a majority of modern Americans love lies and hate the truth the way vampires hate garlic. When you become impervious to the truth, God gives up on you, and he lets you go to hell. Leftists are worse off than conservatives, but there are a lot of hip, godless conservatives who are also beyond help.

If you’re not gearing up for pre-Black-Friday looting, I suppose you should buy some food, gas, and ammunition and get ready to sit out the storm at home. Next week will probably be a bad time to show up at the grocery not looking wokened.

Apocalyptic Evidence Mounts

Look how hysterical I’ve been. I’ve been writing about the book of Revelation, claiming the events of chapter 6 were taking place before us. I’ve said covid was the work of the pale horseman, Internet rage and riots were caused by the red horseman, and shortages were caused by the black horseman. Fringe stuff. Craziness.

After all, Revelation 6 says people will also be killed by wild beasts. That never happens. Right?

Guess who Googled?

CNN: “Animal-related injuries” are “happening more often.” They’re referring to America.

Aljazeera: “‘Conflict within conflict’: Wild animal attacks rise in Kashmir.”

The Kathmandu Post: “Government figures show human-wildlife conflicts and casualties are increasing.”

Conservation Magazine: “Carnivore attacks are increasing, and we’re partly to blame.” This is an unintentionally humorous article, because it cites misguided conservation and reintroduction of predators as an important factor. Duh? “Plan to raise foxes in henhouse leads to surprising results.”

CBC: “Tiger attacks on the rise in India’s coal-rich region.” Regarding tiger attacks in the Chandrapur region, a veterinarian offers this facepalm-inducing observation: “It’s not a situation where you can co-exist with such a large predator.”

In case, like most people, you don’t pay any attention to Canada, the CBC is the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Or Company. Something like that. No one cares. They should go ahead and call it Second Nation TV.

For several years, people have been noticing a sharp increase in animal attacks. There are lots of stories out there. It’s real. And some of the people writing the stories are blaming global warming. Of course. Black bears attack people in Florida, where they’re breeding like crazy and leftist voters won’t let us have a hunt, but that additional 1.2 degrees is the problem.

Incidentally, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission lies about bears. They say there have been no “predatory” attacks in Florida, claiming there have only been scratches and bites from bears trying to defend themselves. Not true, or, at best, misleading. A bear dragged a lady out of her garage a few years back. Her garage. Not his. Bears have also attacked other people and their pets for no reason. They kill dogs.

Predictably, some outlets are making a point of saying Americans are most likely to be attacked in the South, as if God punishes Trump voters by making them attractive to bears. Southerners love the outdoors and don’t all live in tiny boxes, so it makes sense that we would be attacked more. Also, we are more likely to smell like biscuits and barbecue than Northerners. What bear could resist? Yankees smell like subways and bus seats.

I guess it’s wrong to find this stuff amusing. People are being maimed and eaten. Still, it’s hard not to chuckle when you see articles juxtaposing reports of grisly human feasts with smug references to our wonderful efforts to move huge predators into areas where we live.

“They were here first.” Leftists love to say that. Smallpox was here first, too. So was covid, unless, as appears likely, the CDC paid the Chinese to create it and then store samples in unlabeled jam jars in the same refrigerators where lab workers kept their lunches.

Lice were here first. Malaria parasites were here first. AIDS was here first. So what? We used to understand that people were more important than lower organisms. You would think this would be obvious because we make them breed just so we can kill and eat them later. What greater confirmation of your unimportance is there than having other creatures turn your legs into sandwiches?

The modern leftist thinks a polar bear has more right to live than he does, which makes you wonder why Antifers aren’t going on hikes while festooned with doughnut leis. If we’re really a prey species, leftists have a duty to draw lots and make a certain number of sacrifices to the bears each year.

It is literally impossible to make an animal supremacist understand how insane he is, so I guess I should quit criticizing them. Sane people already know human beings are more important than animals, so what I say doesn’t help them, and leftists have strong natural immunity to reason.

The immunity metaphor is interesting. The leftist responses to the pandemic and the existence of logic are the same: apply a muzzle by force.

A search of the web indicates that animal attacks have increased a great deal over the last few years, and, animal worship being what it is, we should expect the trend to continue. Looks like Revelation 6 is well under way.

Why would God let animals torment people? The answer is supernatural. When man is in his proper office, the world is subject to him. His wife doesn’t dominate him, nor do his kids. He doesn’t have a horrible boss. If there are a lot of people like him in his country, he doesn’t have people like Pelosi and Biden ruling him. He doesn’t have to run from animals, either. His own dog doesn’t bite him.

The correct authority hierarchy looks something like this: Yahweh, Yeshua, Holy Spirit, man, wife, kids, dog, random animals, vermin, microbes, plants, Satan, spirits that serve Satan. When things are disorderly, Satan rules demons, demons rule the dog and the kids, the dog and the kids rule the wife, the wife rules the husband, and so on.

People have decided to be animals, so they are losing their authority over animals. It may sound crazy, but it’s true. The more you submit to God, the more the world submits to you.

You can actually see this in the Bible. God let bears kill kids for being snotty. He let a fish swallow Jonah. He sent lice and flies to bite the Egyptians. He sent locusts to eat their crops. He sent serpents to bite rebellious Hebrews. Lions couldn’t open their mouths around Daniel, but they ate the Babylonian pagans who tried to do him in. Samson and David, who had God’s favor, distinguished themselves by killing dangerous animals. God sent contagious diseases to various groups, meaning he gave tiny animals authority over them.

We’re supposed to be the head and not the tail. If you refuse to submit to the proper authorities, and you refuse to be an authority over those beneath you, expect to be subordinate.

It always amazes me that human beings have chosen to reintroduce animals that eat them. No other creature is this stupid. And it’s all hypocritical. Put a screeching leftist vegan and her baby in a barn with a hungry grizzly bear and a selection of loaded firearms, and you know what she’ll do. Find me a leftist who wouldn’t kill a roomful of essential tigers to save her expendable child.

My wife had a dream the other night. A jet landed near her, and stewards and stewardesses got out and started encouraging people to get ready to leave. In dreams, people in service roles, like earthbound waiters and waitresses and their flying counterparts, represent angels. Vehicles, like cars and jets, represent God’s power. The dream was about the rapture.

I hope God pulls us out before the squirrels get us.

Now we Just Need to Change the First Five Letters of “Christmas”

Yesterday I closed a blog post by expressing my pessimism about the surprises the news would bring. I didn’t have to wait long. Chick-Fil-A just put out a Christmas video that has nothing to do with Jesus.

All you leftists who boycott Chick-fil-A and run it out of your cities: stand down. You won. You can welcome Chick-fil-A without worrying about compromising your wokeness. Enjoy those fried sandwiches which are almost as good as Popeyes. Chick-fil-A has surrendered.

Not only is the video all wokened; it features magic, which is something Christians aren’t supposed to go near.

How is it woke? I will tell you.

It has six speaking characters. Three are black, two look like Mexicans, and the last one is ambiguous. He has dark hair and brown eyes. No one in the video has blue or green eyes. I’m not sure why they didn’t put an Asian in there. Maybe next year?

Of course, Asians don’t get much respect from wokiees. When it comes to affirmative action, Asians are discriminated against just like white people. Worse, actually. If they weren’t, Harvard would look the the set of Enter the Dragon. In some ways, Asians could be said to be hyper-whites.

In the video, we see a family that has two black parents, one black kid, and what appears to be a Mexican kid. They’re decorating the Christmas tree, which has no Christian ornaments on it. Dad is outside hanging lights. If I were a black man and one of my daughters looked Mexican, I wouldn’t get that far away from mom.

The kids appear to be the same age. If your wife has twins of different races, either you married the wrong lady or your sperm bank owes you an explanation.

An ornament is broken. The kids are swept away to a mystical kitchen where a Willy Wonka figure repairs things. He repairs the ornament by magic. It started out egg-shaped. Wokiee Wonka helps them turn it into a misshapen fried egg, with what appears to be a pagan sun-worship symbol in the center.

Apart from proving Chick-fil-A isn’t really a Christian company, which informed Christians already knew, it’s hard to see what the point of the video is. “If you break your Christmas ornaments, weird supernatural beings will fix them, so have a great Christmas”?

Maybe the message is that after the ewokes destroy the egg that is civilization, they will fry it and turn it into a delicious breakfast item, proving chaos is better than order.

Watching the disintegration of civilization is like sitting in a boat off the coast of Antarctica, watching icebergs calve. “There goes a big one! Here come two more! There go the Boy Scouts! Oops, the national anthem is gone! Wow, the pope endorsed same-sex civil unions!”

I don’t think it’s possible to have a large Christian corporation any more, unless it’s primarily dedicated to religion. Once a company reaches a certain size, it becomes subject to federal laws that turn religion into a major problem. Even religious corporations are in trouble; leftists have pushed to end “discrimination” against gays in ministry positions. Imagine your church having to fight a lawsuit from a male youth pastor who marches in pride parades in a bottomless police costume.

I don’t like what Chick-fil-A has done, but the alternative to caving in is probably dissolution.

We’re playing musical woke chairs, and the number of chairs is getting really small.

Chick-fil-A won’t allow comments on the video. They know nothing good could come of it.

They are Your Kids

The unthinkable has happened. Ten European countries have opened up to Zambians. Rhodah and I are now looking at destinations.

The list is not that great, especially considering the time of year. Places I really don’t want to visit:

1. Estonia – Come on.
2. Latvia – See 1.
3. Iceland – Four hours of sunlight.
4. Spain – Just like Miami.

Dubious locations:

1. Sweden – Cold.
2. Denmark – What is there in Denmark?

Possibles:

1. Netherlands – Have to avoid weed-seekers and prostitutes.
2. Belgium – Not much to see. World’s best fries.
3. Switzerland – Paradise in summer; winter maybe not so much.

This puts the remaining country, France, in pole position. It looks great.

The French really are unfriendly, but France has great food, great sights, and relatively mild winter weather. And the rudeness problem is not that bad unless you’re traveling alone. I’ll have a pleasant person to talk with. I think it will be important for me to leave my Trump hat at home and to try to look like a bitter atheist who envies anyone with money.

Rhodah is not like me. She wants to see as much stuff as possible, whereas my idea of a good trip is to spend at least two weeks in one country. She wants to see more than France, so it looks like Belgium may be in our future. Ordinarily, I would have zero desire to visit this flat country where nothing happens, but beggars can’t be choosers.

Belgium apparently comes into its own in winter, putting on a big Christmas push, which is odd, given that Europeans have little interest in God, except to persecute his followers for “causing all the world’s problems” and so on. Belgians have special Christmas food and events, in honor of a God they don’t believe exists. The web says only 7% of the Catholic 75% go to mass, so Belgians appear to be Christians pretty much the way Joe Biden is a Christian. Yes, Biden goes to mass more often than that, but he also supports a doctor’s right to sever a healthy child’s spine.

Rhodah has to send her application to Nairobi through the Swedish Embassy in Zambia, and the embassy’s website says she can’t have an appointment until November 22, so we are trying to see if she can get an appointment sooner by asking in person.

There is also some hope of visiting Israel, but good luck figuring out their rules. The Jews are the most able people on Earth, and they are responsible for lots of our technology, but for some reason, the government of the Jewish nation can’t figure out how to create a useful website. The Israeli government website system is a maze that takes you from one site to another, and back and forth between English and Hebrew, and often it sends you back to sites you’ve already seen.

In other news, a poll just came out saying 30%–that’s thirty, not three–of Americans millennials, say they’re homosexual or trans.

A millennial is supposed to be a person who turned 18 during this century. That means he or she was born after December 31, 1982. The millennium started on January 1, 2001. Unfortunately, American schools are run by leftists, so people are not smart enough to handle subtraction, and nearly everyone thinks millennials were born after December 31, 1981. Real millennials were born after December 31, 1982, but no one wants to hear it. In any case, around 30% of Americans born in the last 4 decades say they are deviants.

To put the poll in perspective, it was only a few years ago that this number would have been 1%. That’s the level where America customarily stayed for many years. “It must be because people were intimidated back then!” No. You can’t argue that over 96% of young homosexual and transrational people escaped the notice of their peers and the medical profession because they were intimidated. That’s not a reasonable theory. Deviating from the norm was not that scary, and the rest of us were not wearing blindfolds that prevented us from discovering that nearly a third of Americans were very different. Either there are more deviants now, or there are more people who are making false claims because they think sexual aberrations are cool.

In all likelihood, both explanations are true.

I have mixed feelings when I see bad things I’ve predicted are happening. I feel gratified to see that I was right, but I’m also troubled because bad things are bad. These days, I have these mixed feelings more than once a week.

For several years, I’ve been saying we were headed for a society in which most men had sex with other men. A whole American generation is almost a third of the way there, and I haven’t been making my prediction all that long. We are moving faster than I expected.

Somehow or another, the male homosexual segment of the city of Sodom ended up with so much power, they were able to form gangs and rape men in the street without consequences. In order for that to happen, they had to be numerous. It could never have happened in 1975 America. There weren’t enough men to form the gangs, and there wasn’t enough political clout to prevent law enforcement from preventing public gang rape. That’s how things work in any country where deviants are in the minority. In Sodom, most of the men must have been homosexuals who supported gang rape. Otherwise, the rest would have killed them or driven them off in order to protect themselves.

We know the men of Sodom preferred men to women, because when they showed up at Lot’s house to rape two angels, Lot offered them his two daughters, and they had no interest in them at all. These entitled gentlemen were enraged by the offer and said if they didn’t get the angels, they would also rape Lot.

It sounds wild and improbable, but look at human history. Systemic, mainstreamed cruelty that strained credulity has happened elsewhere, and it can happen in our modern world. Any change in customs or morals that happens in any society can happen in any other society, in any age. What happened in Sodom can happen here. You just need a demon-crazed majority composed of people who rationalize their sadism and sexual wantonness by claiming they’re victims.

Victimhood, entitlement, and social justice put Jewish children on Josef Mengele’s tables.

If you could go back in time to 1900 and tell San Franciscans there would come a day when there would be public parades featuring naked men, no one would believe you (“Have believed you”?), but as of today, things like that have been happening in San Francisco for a long time. If you could go back to 2000, which was much more recent, and tell Americans they would have to memorize long lists of sexual deviations, plus the associated pronouns, plus the favored pronouns of individuals who chose custom jobs, people would have thought you were a hysterical alarmist. As of today, only 21 years later, many Westerners have to obey those rules or face firing or expulsion. Want to make it through medical school and become a doctor? Get used to calling men women.

The other day I wrote about a man who claims to be a woman. I wondered if it would be possible for him to maintain a defamation action against me because I told the truth about his gender. Have there been any such cases? Bet there have. If there haven’t, there will be soon.

If we can have public parades featuring naked men, lists of sexual pathologies that are so complicated they’re genuinely hard to memorize, and social cripplings directed at people who refuse to tell lies, we can also have a majority comprised of deviants and violent gangs who commit sexual lynchings with the backing of the government. These things may be less than 20 years away.

It’s too bad the pollsters didn’t separate the respondents by age. I’ll bet millennials born after 2000 are way gayer than those born earlier. If there is a trend, which is what the poll suggests, it must be that many more than 30% of the kids being born today will be homosexuals or trans-whatever. Maybe American families with young kids are raising a crop that will hit 90%.

Things won’t go well for Christians and others whose religions oppose sexual perversion when they’re in a very small minority. Sexual aberrants and their allies are extremely intolerant right now, when deviants come in somewhere below the 30% mark. Imagine how abusive they’ll be at 75%. They won’t need allies.

The evidence for the rapture is overwhelming, and the evidence for a rapture that will happen very soon is strong. I hope it happens before sane Americans become a tiny minority abused and murdered by the deranged and implacable. There is no way I can change to make them happy. If the rapture doesn’t save us, people like me may have to move to southern Africa or Muslim countries in order to stay alive.

Sometimes I really wonder if I’m going to have to move to Zambia. Other white American Christians have.

I think I’m going to be extra careful not to ask God to fix the world. From now on, I’m going to pray he puts an end to this age ASAP. I don’t think the presence of Christians on Earth is accomplishing much compared to the evil we will suffer if we stay here much longer. Everyone has been warned. No one can say he didn’t get a chance. I don’t think there are any new tricks in the evangelist’s arsenal.

God erased Sodom when it became obvious Lot and his family were imperiled by people who could not be changed. I can see how he would prefer starting the tribulation, which is a milder punishment than sudden, total extermination, instead of leaving his children here to waste their time and suffer extreme abuse.

I wouldn’t pray for God to destroy stubborn sinners, because I don’t want to condemn anyone, but I would pray for him to pull Christians out, which would lead to a very hard time for sinners. After the rapture, during the tribulation, they would still be able to repent. That’s the purpose for which the tribulation was named. “Tribulation” means using harsh means to remove grain from its husk. It’s about harvesting, not destroying. The tribulation will not be like the flood, which killed the whole human race. It will bring horrible suffering, intended to drive anyone who can still be saved to ask for salvation.

I’m trying not to guess at the other horrors that will pop up in the news this year. I’m sure they will be impressive.

Reality and Fiction Become Indistinguishable

Youtube is aware that I’m conservative, so it sends me conservative content. Unfortunately, Youtube can’t tell a conservative Christian from a non-Christian who simply wants lower taxes and the right to defend himself. Today it sent me a video by a profanity-loving comedian named Ryan Long.

Like Gavin McInnes, Long is a transplant from Canada. His comedy is about making fun of leftist/beast insanity. He is pretty clearly not a Christian, because his work is full of profanity and dirty references. I don’t recommend watching him, but he is very talented. Or maybe ridiculing insanity is so easy, it makes him look talented.

I don’t plan to watch him any more, but I saw three of his videos today. In one video, he pretended to be Mark Diaomond, a fictional writer who was fired by Vice Magazine. The theme of the video is that he was too woke for Vice. Of course, this is not possible, but the video is clever.

Vice got its start with Gavin McInnes and a couple of apparently less-important partners. As you may recall, it was supposed to be irreverent, politically incorrect, and pro-male. Something happened along the way, McInnes left (while refusing to comment, making one wonder if he had a financial incentive to be quiet). Now, Vice is known for bark-at-the-moon-crazy far-left ravings which are published in complete seriousness.

In the video, an angry “Diaomond” rattles off the titles of articles he can’t get published anywhere, and they are ultra-woke and certifiably deranged. He also puts photos of other articles behind him, and the articles also have crazy titles. For some reason, it seemed to me that one of the articles might be real, so I checked.

It is real. They’re all real. He used photos of Vice articles by a man named Diana, and you will not believe how twisted they are. He also posted articles by other seemingly psychotic individuals. Some titles aren’t fit for me to repeat here, but here are a few:

“Yes, There are Trans Animals”

“A Modest Take on Why Men Traumatize Women with Poop”

“Actually, Trump is a Witch Hunter, Claims Male Witch Community”

“All Masculinity is Toxic”

“The Girl’s Guide to Tucking Your ___”

The last one ends with an obscenity, and it’s apparently intended to teach male sexual deviants how to hide their parts. A “girl’s” guide.

The problem now is that it is nearly impossible to tell satire from reality. People like to say that, and they’ve been saying it for years, but it has never been true the way it’s true now.

I looked at Diana’s Twitter account, and his tweets were so bizarre, I had to Google other sources in order to convince me Diana wasn’t a prank identity.

Example, about his youth as a Christian:

The thing that finally made me realize it wasn’t true happened when I was like 13.

I prayed to Satan to make a hot fireman appear in my bedroom & ___k me.

Because like, that’s a prayer Satan would totally answer. And keep in mind I like actually believe that this ___t was real.

A followup:

I wasn’t disappointed to learn that it was all made up. But I was very very unhappy that no fireman appeared.

I literally told Satan he could have my immortal soul if he answered that prayer for me.

That is a very generous offer, no way Satan would have turned that down.

Here’s some theology for you:

Question. In what way is telling a child they will go to hell if there ‘bad’ not psychological abuse?

You can find videos of this guy on Youtube. It looks like he has had his Adam’s apple and jawbone reduced, but you would still have to be pretty drunk to make the mistake of trying to take him home from a bar.

Diana likes to complain about the phenomenon of normal men killing transvestites and transsexuals after being lured into sex. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that this happens, because the men who have been fooled are victims of rape or attempted rape.

There is a crime called “rape by deception.” It happens when a person gives consent that isn’t valid because he or she has been deceived. Trannies are causing problems by attempting to rape men and women by deception. They pretend to be what they are not, and sometimes the truth isn’t revealed until after rape has occurred.

Some men become enraged and kill their rapists. It’s generally not legal to do that. The law says you can use lethal force to prevent rape. That doesn’t mean it’s acceptable to murder someone who has just raped you by deception, or that it’s acceptable to murder someone who is about to rape you but can be deterred without resorting to violence, but it shows that the law does not like rape very much. Rape is a heinous crime that damages victims permanently. Anyway, a sensible person wouldn’t be complaining about completely predictable murders. He should be discouraging people from trying to commit rape.

I’m wandering. To get back on track, the video made me feel very bad. I felt deep sorrow. A more emotional person would have cried. It was one more reminder that the world is further gone than I had thought.

You know things are going badly in your relations with stubborn people when the emotions they elicit from you turn from annoyance to sadness and resignation It means the end is near. The rotten things they say and do to you don’t make you angry any more. You just observe them and marvel.

Special Agents or Flying Monkeys?

People are picking on Joe Biden a lot, but we should congratulate him on one thing: the astounding amount of government power he is devoting to investigating cases of petty theft.

Ordinarily, when something of yours is stolen, law enforcement will do nothing whatsoever to recover it. This includes things like $150,000 cars. They don’t go to pawn shops and chop shops trying to get your things back. They just write reports and file them, unless civilians tell them who did the stealing. Joe Biden’s DOJ and FBI are changing all that.

Someone offered Project Veritas a diary, claiming it belonged to Ashley Blazer Biden, a random citizen who allegedly wrote it in drug rehab, and who, not that this is important, is the daughter of the president. Project Veritas turned it down because it could not be authenticated. Another outlet published 112 pages, and they are not flattering to the president. They suggest Ashley has been traumatized by his bullying and manipulation, and regarding her psychological issues, the writer suggests her father showered with her when she was too old for it to be appropriate.

It’s very sad stuff. Two of the president’s children died young, and the other two are addicts with wrecked lives that have been exposed to the public. Hunter Biden has written very depressing things about his life, suggesting his dad is a controlling bully who keeps his children dependent, and his sister’s writings seem to reveal feelings of worthlessness and despair. One gets the impression these two were expendable fuel for their hyper-aggressive dad’s ambitions.

The state has no legitimate interest in recovering the diary. It contains no state secrets. Ashley Biden doesn’t have the nuclear codes.

Now Joe Biden’s FBI has conducted raids on Project Veritas journalists and their associates, trying to get the diary and charge someone with theft. They raided the HOMES of private citizens. As though they had stolen the plans for hypersonic missiles.

Thank goodness law enforcement has been improved so much. I thought Democrats were against the police, presumably including the federal ones, but now they are spending huge sums trying to locate diaries.

It’s also nice of the FBI to authenticate the diary, saving Project Veritas the trouble. If it’s not stolen, there can be no theft, so the FBI wouldn’t be looking for it if the Bidens had not told them it was genuine. Biden and/or his daughter had to supply them with that information. Actually, it had to be Biden, because the FBI would not have paid any attention if his daughter had called them by herself. “I’m the president’s daughter, and I want the FBI to get my diary back and have the thief prosecuted.” That would not fly. It would be like Tiffany Trump calling up the Navy and demanding to go water-skiing behind an aircraft carrier.

Now any journalist, anywhere, can publish the diary and say it’s genuine. Biden and the FBI made this possible.

The journalists involved say the diary was discarded at the rehab facility and discovered by a third party. This is probably true. A diary will not get out of a woman’s hands unless she is done with it. If it matters to her, she will protect it.

So here’s what is almost certainly happening:

1. Ashley Biden discarded her diary, which we now know is genuine.

2. Someone found it, legally, and sold it, legally.

3. Joe Biden got very angry because it said disgusting things about him which are probably true.

4. Joe Biden sent the FBI to steal an item that was known to have been obtained and published legally and which has no monetary value.

I know what you’ll say. Maybe an overzealous underling at the DOJ or FBI is behind this. No. They would have cleared it with Biden, because otherwise, they would have risked their careers, and no government bureaucrat risks his career unnecessarily. They’re not made like that.

The FBI’s sudden willingness to help citizens is truly amazing. It would be astonishing if they tried to find a worthless diary that had been stolen, but they are going far beyond that. They are raiding private residences looking for something they know isn’t stolen. They are conducting raids to illegally confiscate an American’s rightful property. That’s how much they now care about our lost trash.

I wonder if they would do that for me. Democrats are always looking out for the little guy. I sold a bicycle to someone, and I regret it. I’m going to call the FBI and see if they will raid his house for me.

Let’s say they find the diary. What kind of charge are they hoping to gin up? Petty theft of the lowest possible order? Debbie Lacey stole my pencil when I was in the fourth grade. Will the FBI help me?

I can’t wait to see the prosecution. It will be the first time anyone has been hauled into federal court for petty theft. They don’t have jurisdiction over things like that. Will they go to state court? I would love to see the expression on the judge’s face.

Either Biden is showing the kind of legal acumen that put him in the lower half of a bad law school class, or he knows there was no theft, and he doesn’t care. There is a type of theft called “theft by finding,” and it means what it sounds like it means, but in order to prosecute, you have to show that the item wasn’t abandoned, like a discarded diary at a rehab facility. You can’t steal my trash from a hotel wastebasket after I leave. If you take it, it’s legally yours. It can’t be stolen because it has no owner.

Here’s a great question: who appointed the judge who approved the warrants? What was going on in his head when he decided to allow the FBI to barge into houses in order to recover a used notebook with zero value?

Don’t let Hunter Biden visit your house. A few days later, you might be waterboarded. “WHERE IS THE UMBRELLA? WE KNOW YOU HAVE IT!”

Here’s a smarter question: why is a federal agency involved? If I somehow managed to get someone to investigate the loss of a diary, it would have to be a police chief or sheriff. Petty theft is not a federal crime, except in DC, where all courts are federal. The raids were conducted in New York, not DC. This should be a local matter. The FBI doesn’t investigate things like that. You can’t call the FBI when your neighbors have a loud party or someone eggs your house.

Here’s a guess: the FBI is on Joe Biden’s leash, and local police are not. If Joe Biden gets mad at a person in Pocatello, Idaho, and tries to get the cops to raid his house on a bogus charge, the cops will tell him to get lost. A politicized federal agency can’t do that.

I checked CNN’s site (P.U.) to see if they had an explanation. I figured they would have some kind of a defense for Biden, if one existed. No luck. The story is not on their site. That tells me they know it’s a problem. Otherwise, they would be hooting with joy over a black eye for Project Veritas.

I think they’re withholding comment while they struggle to find a way to condemn conservative journalists without looking like hacks and morons.

Now, what was the purpose of the raids? It was to punish journalists for embarrassing Joe Biden and/or for threatening his future.

How do we know this? Simple. The goal was not to prevent the diary from being published, because that has already happened. It was not to remove the diary from public view, because that would be illegal and impossible. The goal had to be something else. The most obvious explanation, as Mr. Ockham would agree, is that Biden wants to discourage journalists from publishing things that threaten him. He wants to put them in fear so they will be quiet in the future.

It makes me wonder if Biden was behind Obama’s unethical persecution of journalists. Or maybe Biden simply learned from the master. Or maybe Obama is “helping” a demented chief executive make decisions right now. I’ve heard people suggest Obama is running things. I find it hard to swallow, but Biden is continuing a disgraceful and characteristic part of Obama’s legacy.

Here’s another question: what will our nation’s unethical, left-wing press do now? They can either support an egregious governmental violation of the law, intended to discourage legitimate journalism, or they can circle the blue wagons and call for prosecutions. If they do that, they’re tying the noose for their own necks. Will it stop them?

Here is one thing we know for sure: whatever they do will have no basis in ethics or concern for the welfare of our nation. Bet your life on that.

We should be very disturbed to see a president and his enforcers go on a petty, illegal errand like this. It’s worse than the Watergate break-in. At least Nixon’s team could say they were violating a business, for business reasons, not people’s homes. The Watergate burglars didn’t risk traumatizing wives and children.

If our president, his DOJ and FBI, and his judges will do this to us over an embarrassing diary that has already been published, what is beyond them?

I’m a little uncomfortable about writing this entry, even though no one reads my blog. What if I were working for Fox, I were sitting on a Biden-rupturing expose fed to me by sources that had done wrong, yet which was legal to publish, and I knew millions of people would see my work? I would feel chilled.

I am ready for the rapture. I don’t want to be here when dissidents fear the president the way they feared Stalin.

OOPS

I think I may owe an apology or two.

I finally got some additional information. It appears that Bob Barr’s DOJ started the investigation, so it’s not like Biden’s DOJ initiated things 10 minutes after the inauguration. Also, I don’t think FBI agents get to choose their assignments, so it may well be that there is no reason to be critical of the ones who ransacked two homes. They were implementing subpoenas issued by a court at the behest of DOJ prosecutors. Maybe the prosecutors, the DOJ brass, and Biden can be blamed, but FBI agents are little fish with limited autonomy.

I learned that Biden (his people, same thing) notified the DOJ of a burglary before the 2020 election. His daughter claimed some items were stolen from her, and she named the diary as one of the items. Barr started the investigation, perhaps to find out if some organization was committing serious crimes in order to influence a presidential election. Maybe the real point was to show Trump was not involved.

Obvious questions: was there really a burglary? Who, on the right or anywhere else, would expect a drug addict’s rehab diary to make a former vice president look like an abusive parent and possible molester? Who would hold that expectation so strongly he would break into a home to find evidence? It doesn’t pass the smell test. Diaries are private, and it’s pretty unlikely Ashley Biden told people hers made her father look sleazy and cruel.

It’s easy to file a false police report which is impossible to prove false. It’s nearly a zero-risk crime.

If there had been molestation or other bombshell parenting accusations in the past, AND the perhaps-imaginary right-wing thief had heard of them, I suppose he might be on the lookout for evidence, but would he really break into a home, locate the diary, realize it might be helpful, and then effectively confess his crime to multiple strangers by trying to sell it?

“Here’s Ashley Biden’s diary. I would like to sell it to you while the authorities are investigating the burglary in which it was stolen.” Really?

Another question: why would the thief take things other than the diary? You’re in a home committing a political crime, you find the item you miraculously know may advance your cause, and then you take the time to steal other stuff, greatly increasing the risk you will be caught. I don’t see it.

Maybe it was a trans burglar who wore the same size clothes as Ashley.

Was it a plain old burglar who wanted jewelry and knickknacks? Maybe he stumbled across the diary! Plausible?

Okay, so an ignorant burglar who only cares about money finds out he’s in the home of the daughter of the former vice president, who looks likely to be elected president, and he steals her diary even though he has no reason to think it has any value. So he wanted to offend a very powerful man by stealing a diary with no cash value and tremendous evidentiary value.

It’s much easier for me to believe Ashley Biden abandoned her diary, as claimed by the person who tried to sell it, because addicts have lots of worries and may not be all that fastidious about holding onto belongings that aren’t important to them. After all, her brother abandoned his first-disavowed, later-authenticated computer.

Rehab facilities tell addicts to keep diaries. They call it “journaling.” They think it helps addicts recover. It may be that Ashley Biden kept the journal as part of her treatment and lost interest in it when her stay ended. That would explain why she left it in her quarters, as claimed. If I were in rehab, I would probably do the same thing with things I didn’t want, assuming the staff would dispose of my trash instead of selling it to Project Veritas. It’s an assumption most people would make, even though rehab employees have a bad reputation among knowledgeable people.

A burglar would be pretty unlikely to see the importance of the diary, but a rehab employee is another story. He would know exactly who Ashley Biden was, and he would see the cash potential. Rehab employees aren’t angels. They sell drugs to drug addicts. They sell food to fat people. A job at a rehab facility is an opportunity to milk desperate people, who will be highly motivated to protect you, for money.

It’s very common for rehab employees to sell drugs. In fact, it’s common for facility operators to sell them. Look it up. Don’t believe me. Ashley Biden may have been cared for by people who didn’t have her best interests at heart. This, unlike the burglar story, would be very easy to believe. There is no evidence for it, however.

If the abandonment claim is true, what can the journalists involved be guilty of? Theft is off the table. Merely publishing the diary is not a crime, because if it were, the publisher would have been charged months ago. This whole thing must revolve around a hope that theft can be proven, and somehow that theft has to amount to, or be connected to, a serious federal crime. Burglary is more serious than mere theft, but it’s not something that ordinarily goes straight to federal court. Is there a prospective defendant from outside the state of New York? Nothing will make sense until the grand jury’s papers are released.

Question: if you are a presidential candidate, and your daughter’s home is robbed, why would you contact the DOJ? Why not the police? Why would you be involved at all? Grown people call the police for themselves. Biden knew, or was afraid, something dangerous was out there. Maybe the person who had the diary had tried to contact his campaign, hoping to commit extortion. That could motivate Biden to fake a burglary in hopes of bringing national attention to the diary and making the person who found it fear prosecution.

What if Biden himself was fooled? If I were his daughter, and I let my bombshell diary fall into the hands of an extortioner, and the extortioner contacted me, I might be able to mitigate my dad’s wrath and protect my inheritance by claiming I had been robbed. It would be a good way to get ahead of an eruption. I don’t know how honest Ms. Biden is, though. Maybe she wouldn’t do that. Her dad is very dishonest, but maybe she isn’t like him.

Addicts are generally terrible liars.

Joe Biden didn’t contact the FBI right before an election because he expected them to investigate the theft of his daughter’s yoga pants and neti pot. Things were very busy in the Biden basement. To choose to involve himself in this distraction, he needed a better reason.

I think it’s fair to say that if someone had stolen earrings from Ivanka Trump’s nightstand during the election, Trump would have told her to call the cops and let him campaign. Some reports say Ms. Biden reported the crime, but that’s apparently wrong. Other sources say Biden’s people reported it, confirming the guess I made earlier today.

Project Veritas tried to return the diary to Ms. Biden through her attorney. Her attorney refused it, according to the news, because accepting it would be tantamount to authentication. Why didn’t the attorney call the FBI? Why didn’t he accept the diary, which he must have known was real? Obviously, Biden didn’t want things written in the diary to be confirmed to be his daughter’s writings.

Biden and the attorney knew the diary was authentic.

You call the FBI saying an authentic diary was stolen. Someone tries to give the diary back, and you refuse it because you want people to think it’s a fake.

????????

As long as big-time press outlets think a document is fake, they will be hesitant to publish it. By refusing the diary, the Bidens succeeded in stifling its distribution. Now they admit it’s genuine, drawing a tremendous amount of attention to it. It’s now legal for any website to print the text of the diary and say Ashley Biden wrote it.

Now the question isn’t whether Ms. Biden wrote the diary; it’s whether the bad things she said about her dad, in a private journal she never expected anyone to see, where she had no motivation to make things up, are true.

Why didn’t the Bidens call the DOJ off? It would have allowed them to refrain from proactively authenticating the diary, which they have now done. Are they afraid to end the probe?

Continuing the investigation after the inauguration makes Biden and his DOJ look corrupt. If Biden had tried to shut it down in order to avoid authenticating the diary, he might have looked even more corrupt.

The Bidens couldn’t cast doubt on the diary after a certain point, though, because Ms. Biden said a diary had been stolen, and no one took action against the people who published what they claimed was the diary. After refraining from suing the publisher for months, any effort to discredit the diary would not have been credible. The Bidens failed to disavow, bolstering the diary through passivity, and then, by refusing to call the dogs off, they authenticated.

Why did the DOJ search the homes? It’s not normal for them to treat journalists like this. It shouldn’t be happening under a non-Obama administration. The DOJ should have discretion to choose, and they should be disinclined to ignore tradition. Is someone pushing them?

Web sources say the president has the power to interfere in individual cases. He should not use it, obviously, but he apparently has it. Trump had the power to dismiss Robert Mueller.

It may be a mistake to look for a rationale in the mind of Joe Biden. He has done a lot of irrational things. He put a huge number of people out of work with a vaccine mandate, during a major unemployment crisis. He crippled our oil supply, said electric cars would make it okay, and went to OPEC to beg for more crude. He wants to pay illegal aliens gigantic sums because they were separated from each other at the border, when he should know this will act as a powerful attractant for more aliens. He kept our borders closed after every country in the world had already gone through at least one wave of covid.

Biden has dementia, and he wasn’t very bright to begin with, so he is likely to make bad decisions, and he is also likely to have his authority usurped by underlings who are inconsistent because they aren’t in agreement about everything. They say a camel is a horse designed by a committee. Maybe the diary case is a camel, and Biden’s people, not Biden, are making the weird calls.

While I was trying to figure out how this mess happened, I found information from Rachel Maddow, of all people. A known leftist conspiracy nut, Maddow is hardly credible in most circumstances, and you would expect her to pounce on Project Veritas whether it was justified or not, but today I watched her express amazement that a federal case had been launched over a diary. Even she is shocked that two homes were searched. This doesn’t bode well for Biden. Unless new facts that change the picture pop up–and they would have to be remarkable–this case may leave a big stain on his already sagging image.

Published a day late.

Suit Up

I keep saying three things:

1. Covid shots are not the mark of the beast.

2. People may be required to get vaccinated periodically, for the rest of their lives or until a cure arrives, and if they are required to produce proof they’re complying in order to work, travel, buy, and sell, the proof could be the mark of the beast.

3. Even if neither a vaccine nor a vaccine passport is the mark, mandates and passport requirements train us to obey, so when the time comes to take the mark, most of us will be conditioned to jump on command, do as we’re told, and torment everyone who refuses to do likewise.

This month I read that a local government somewhere–Germany, I think–was requiring people to produce proof of vaccination in order to buy food. I thought that was a big deal. I didn’t know until today that American cities were passing laws preventing unvaccinated people from going indoors in stores. If you can’t go indoors, shopping is not easy. Some stores will bring things out to you, but others won’t, and it’s not substitute for being able to see the things you need. Imagine letting a store employee pick out meat, raw seafood, or fresh produce for you. You would get some nasty stuff.

Los Angeles is what most people would consider a large city. It holds about 4 million people, or over 1% of Americans. In August, they passed a show-your-papers law that covers “retail outlets.” It went into effect yesterday. I wonder if they have dealt with the essential-products problem. I don’t see anything pop up in a cursory search.

Here is what Councilman and, no doubt, respected virologist and epidemiologist Mitch O’Farrell said:

“We’re not going to tell someone, anyone, that they have to get vaccinated. We’re also not going to deny anyone the ability to access essentials—food, medicine, etc.—regardless of vaccination. That wouldn’t be legal, that wouldn’t be moral. But what is immoral is choosing not to get vaccinated, choosing to listen to some delusional rant on Twitter. This is real life. Vaccines work.”

It’s immoral to tell someone he has to get vaccinated in order to go in a store, but it’s okay to force him to drive out of the city to get food, clothing, and other necessary items. Presumably, if the whole country had a similar law, it would be okay to tell us we could not shop anywhere.

He says vaccines work. Is that actually true? It depends on what you want the vaccine to do.

They used to tell us vaccines prevented us from catching covid. Remember that? They quoted very high effectiveness rates. Only a few months ago, they had to take the goalpost down and move it. “A few people could catch ‘breakthrough’ cases, but virtually no one will get really sick or die. Let’s put the goalpost down here.” “No, wait. A lot of people catch breakthrough cases, but virtually no one will get really sick or die. This is where the goalpost goes.” “Oops. People who were already at risk are very likely to get breakthrough covid, and they are still at a high risk of getting really sick and dying, but the vaccines will keep most people who don’t need them from getting something resembling a cold.”

It’s pretty obvious that vaccines can’t be relied on to keep infection numbers low. Germany and England have high vaccination rates, and covid has descended upon them again. The graphs show they’re in pretty much the same situation they were in when covid was at its worst. Thousands and thousands of cases, every day. These countries aren’t like countries in southern Africa, where unvaccinated people don’t distance and covid barely exists.

Scientists may have some theories about why this is happening, but from my lay perspective, it defies common sense. We are told vaccines will prevent the vast majority of people from being infected at all, and uninfected people can’t spread covid, so why are England and Germany in crisis? They’re doing as badly as Russia, where the vaccination rate is low.

If nearly 70% of the people in a country are vaccinated, and the vaccines are any good at all, maybe 50% of the population should be immune. On top of that, another big percentage should have natural immunity that follows recovery. So what should be in place to protect people? Maybe 65% immunity, plus distancing measures? But the cases keep piling up.

Vaccinated people are getting sick very commonly. There is a myth that nearly all of the people who get sick now are unvaccinated, but it’s incorrect. Vaccinations do a pretty good job of preventing infected people from dying, but infected vaccinated people can still infect others. And we are now being told vaccines only protect high percentages of people from dying if they’re not sick, fat, or old. In other words, they work very poorly on the only big groups of people who really need the protection.

It sounds like sick, old, and fat people are up against it. To most people, a covid infection is like nothing (no symptoms), a cold, or the flu, but to the sick, old, and fat, it’s a plague that carries high risks of death and permanent severe body damage.

The upshot of all this seems to be that the vaccine does a pretty good job of preventing infection and death in groups that were already generally safe, while doing very little for those who have the most to fear.

I would hesitate to say, “Vaccines work.” It’s like saying lung cancer treatment works. Some lung cancer patients do so well they die of old age. Most die from cancer. The vaccines seem to be doing a lot of good, but a sick, old or fat person would have to be nuts to expose himself to covid and think a shot would protect him.

I think state-worshipers should say, “Vaccines help.” That makes more sense. When you buy a medication at the drugstore and read the words on the box, they never say, “Blasto the laxative developed for rhinoceroses* will definitely fix your constipation.” They say, “Blasto helps relieve constipation.” “Helps.” If laxatives always worked, Elvis would be alive.

Vaccines help, but they’re not preventing a full-blown resurgence in some countries, including places where fairly stringent distancing measures have been taken. So is it okay to deprive people of their civil rights in the unsupported hope that it will keep covid from coming back?

Aren’t civil rights important? We used to think sacrificing a certain number of lives was preferable to living like prisoners. Patrick Henry said, “Give me liberty, or give me death.” If he were a leftist in 2021, he would say, “Please don’t kill me. Please, please, please. I’ll do anything.” He would give his rights up in a heartbeat, and he would help the government take yours.

Liberty is important, and we are giving it up in exchange for vaccines that are not very good.

Leftists are telling us the vaccines are very good. No; they may be very good given the time we had to create them and the particulars of this virus, but they’re not very good in absolute terms. The polio vaccine is nearly 100% effective. Know any Americans who had polio after vaccinations began? The smallpox vaccine is said to be 95% effective, and it worked so well, smallpox doesn’t exist in the US. The rabies vaccine is virtually 100% effective. Those are good vaccines.

People have written that my covid vaccine, the J&J shot, may only be 66% effective, whatever that means. How would you like to be bitten by a rabid dog and hear a number like that?

Today I saw a Youtube video. I searched for tribulation dream videos, and I found a lady who says she has had the same dream over and over, her whole life. She was trapped on Earth during the tribulation. She was homeless. People were roaming the rural areas, squatting in empty houses. They knew they were enduring the tribulation, and they were in rural areas because they wanted to be outside the system.

That’s a remarkable dream. For a number of years, people like me have been moving to the country, to get away from the filthiness and social coercion of cities. If the rapture comes, what will Christians who aren’t taken find when they flee cities? Houses like mine, assuming I make it to heaven. Houses that belonged to Christians who were watching and waiting. Houses full of nonperishable food, guns, and ammunition. Houses with solar power, livestock, and gardens.

Until today, I thought God was urging me to stock up on guns and ammunition so heathens could take them after the rapture and murder each other. Maybe that’s not right. Maybe they’re for Christians who don’t make the cut. They will need help.

It’s consistent with the Youtube lady’s dream.

I keep saying things are moving more quickly than I expected. I’m saying it again. If we are put on a schedule of recurring vaccinations accompanied by a requirement that we carry proof with us in order to buy and sell, that proof may well be the mark of the beast. I thought they wouldn’t ban us from stores for a few more months, but they’re doing it today.

I got rid of my Youtube news-channel subscriptions in October, but before I did, I saw all sorts of mandate protests, and they were big. I saw them in Europe and America. I saw them in Australia, too. Then I went to American news outlets and saw nearly nothing. Even Fox sat on the stories. Fox isn’t all that sincere about conservatism. They talk a big game, and they pander, but they put all their New York employees on a mandate a long time ago. If they’re deliberately hiding protests in order to destroy our hope of winning and making us feel we have to toe the line, it’s not a surprise.

Fox isn’t a Christian organization, so nearly everyone at Fox will serve the beast when the time comes. Don’t expect anything different.

The tribulation, which Jesus called the hour of temptation, appears to be nearly here. I thought “temptation” referred mainly to suffering that would make people murderous and selfish. I saw it as a general thing. Recently, I saw someone on the web mention a specific temptation. He said we would be tempted to get the shots and the passport and serve the beast. That was the temptation that made the biggest impression on him.

He must have heard that from God. We are being tempted to hate each other and to be selfish, but the big sin that will doom people to hell is taking the mark of the beast. Temptation to commit that sin must be central to the conflict ahead.

People think you can never remove the mark of the beast and turn back to God. I wonder if that’s true. You can be a satanist priest and spew filthy insults at God every day and still be allowed to repent, so would God make it impossible for beast worshipers to repent? If I were dumb enough to let the government mark me so I could buy groceries, I would eventually be very desperate for another chance, and God is generally extremely generous with new chances.

Nothing Helpful

While I wait for my meatloaf to cook, I am going to write about Jordan Peterson.

If you don’t know who he is, you must not be an incel, a white supremacist, or a man who is paying alimony to a woman who is currently sleeping in a house you paid for, with the better-looking man who broke up your marriage. I know other types of people listen to him, but these three types are pretty much locks.

He’s some sort of professor. Psychology, I think. He defends masculinity and Western culture, and he debates wooly-minded leftists on Youtube. He comes off looking great in these debates, but that shouldn’t surprise anyone, because leftism is not fact-based, and the far-out types with whom he argues are not the sort of people who win arguments with intelligent, truthful people.

He’s very, very smart, he thinks very well on his feet, and he also talks over people, so he’s like a Bill O’Reilly who actually knows a lot. Trouble is, some conservatives are turning him into a secular messiah. They seem to think that if Jordan Peterson wins enough debates and SHUTS DOWN or SCHOOLS enough leftists on video, Trump will be reinstated, women’s suffrage will magically vanish, and we will once again be able to buy .44 Magnums at K-Mart without background checks.

Youtube keeps throwing Peterson videos at me. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because I subscribe to a few gun channels, or it could be because I looked up “Let’s go, Brandon.”

I watched one yesterday. It was really disappointing. Peterson appeared to be telling everyone how to spend their autumn years correctly. I’m not sure. He started with the premise that men lose their will to live upon retiring and then die. After that, there was a lot of rambling about stopping and smelling the roses, going to your kids’ school plays, and so on.

I believe the person who presented the video did some editing, because it seemed pretty incoherent.

If I had to summarize the message and the plan he seemed to be presenting, here is how I would try:

1. You probably think retirement will be great because you will be able to rest and do what you want.

2. If you retire and get to do as you please, you will probably be miserable and die a few months later because you will have lost your reason for living.

SO:

3. Decide what kind of life you want to have.

4. Make a plan to get that life.

5. Stick to the plan until you succeed.

6. While doing this, make absolutely sure your family isn’t dysfunctional.

7. Have a fantastic, extremely fulfilling life.

He was talking to Joe Rogan. Now, Joe Rogan seems like a guy who wants to do right, but he is not Solomon. He is not Socrates. He is supposed to be an expert on two things: comedy and the martial arts. Without getting into a discussion of his standup act, which doesn’t have Dave Chappelle worried about his place at the top, Joe Rogan is the fight expert who told us Ronda Rousey was, essentially, a once-in-a-lifetime athlete.

We all know that Rousey did very well until she ran into a lady who fought the person, not the hype. Holly Holm beat her decisively in under two rounds, knocking her unconscious and injuring her so badly she couldn’t eat properly for months. In her next and last match, Rousey lost again, in under one round, and people realized she wasn’t very good. She wasn’t the G.O.A.T. She wasn’t even good enough to be competitive.

So that’s Joe Rogan. A man who consumes a gigantic amount of pot and pot-related products, who may not be the least gullible person alive.

Rogan seemed awestruck with Peterson, but we have seen that before.

By the way, Peterson has had a cradle-to-grave support system. He has been in school since he was in kindergarten, apart from one year off. He went straight from college into work as a paid academic, so he has been insulated from life’s bumps and bruises at least since 1984, when he became a grad student. Academics are as institutionalized as prison inmates and career military men. They are looked after by others. They never have to learn how to survive outside the incubator. Yet he is giving advice to people who live in the real world.

My take was that either Peterson had a grossly inflated opinion of the value of his advice, or the person who posted the video cut out some really important stuff.

The theory that not having a career will destroy you is just plain fatuous. I don’t have a job, and I love it. The thought of going to work is appalling. I would have to use the right pronouns. There would be office politics. I would have to go to seminars to learn why white people are bad. I would have to watch people with much less ability get things I deserved because they were more diverse than I was. I would never be able to speak the truth. I would be afraid to. And there is a good chance I would have to get whatever shots Joe Biden thinks are important.

I wish I had never had to work at a secular job. I don’t care about leaving my stamp on the secular world. I don’t feel I owe the world my contribution as a lawyer or anything else, because I don’t. It’s amazing that anyone could think anything that stupid.

My dad practiced law from 1959 until 2015, when dementia got him. He was a superb lawyer. He was the top dog at one of the nation’s finest labor firms. He was Order of the Coif. He was third in his class. He beat Ivy League lawyers left and right. Now, 6 years after he quit, he is dead, and no one cares. No one ever says, “Thank God that lawyer changed my life.” The firm he ran no longer has his name on it. No one but me misses him. It’s like he never existed.

He had a rotten marriage, he had two dysfunctional kids, and he died without seeing a grandchild. But he was great in his career.

That’s what fulfilling your debt to society by distinguishing yourself in your secular career gets you. It’s a little different if you invent the polio vaccine, but if you’re a typical person, this is what you can expect.

Forty years from now, Jordan will be dead, and he will be in the same boat as my dad, except one hopes his family will be in better shape. More people will know his name, but he will not have changed the world.

I almost never get bored. I never ask myself what my purpose is. I never feel that my life is meaningless. I never feel empty. There are more great things to do than I have time for. And I don’t use an alarm clock. If you use one, you know how wonderful that is.

Here is what I say: if not having a job bothers you, it’s because you are your job. Lose your job, lose yourself. I am not a job.

Two things that expose people are solitude and freedom. If you can’t handle either, the problem is inside you.

I commented on the video, saying Peterson seemed like the Leo Buscaglia of conservative intellectuals.

Leo Buscaglia was a Special Education professor at USC back in the Sixties. Right away, you may see reason for concern. After one of his students committed suicide, he became very concerned about love and smelling the roses and so forth. Like Peterson, he became a motivational speaker. I don’t know if Peterson bills himself as a motivational speaker, but that’s the function he performs.

Buscaglia, who seemed to be in very good touch with his feminine side, used to go on tours in which he appeared before crowds, sweating aggressively, and charged them money to tell them they needed to love more and act sort of flamboyant. I think you get the idea. “Dance like nobody’s watching, love like you’ve never been hurt, dye one side of your head blue and eat Quorn,” et cetera. Give your secretary roses. Buy the old lady next door a new car. Let your dog eat at the dinner table. Hug a hundred mortified strangers every time you go to the grocery store.

He must have worked in the same factory with the guy who designed the “Live Laugh Love” sign.

When I was a kid, my family, which did not have the benefit of Peterson’s advice, was very dysfunctional. Love was lacking in my life. I used to watch Buscaglia on PBS, and I thought he was great. He made me feel better. I was a kid, however. I thought John Denver was great. I thought the Billy Jack movies were great. I thought George Carlin was clever, not bitter and sophomoric. I owned an ABBA cassette. I had a lot of maturing to do.

I’m an adult now, and I realize Buscaglia was not really changing the world or helping many people. He didn’t help me, for example. He made people feel bad about not being more effusive and affectionate, and then he sent them out into the world, where they behaved much as they had before, only they were out the price of a lecture ticket.

Buscaglia had good intentions, probably, but all he did was tell us we should be better, by his standards, without telling us how to do it. Seems to me Peterson does the same thing.

He confuses goals with methods. He also gives people tasks they can’t realistically be expected to perform, unless the video is wildly misleading.

He says you should figure out what kind of life you want to have. If I had done this early on, and I had succeeded, I would now be Superman. My goals changed, so if I had started a few years later, I would have been a surgeon. And miserable, like most surgeons. I eventually decided I wanted to be a physicist. Nearly all physicists are miserable. They work in leftist hives, they have no freedom, their work is extremely hard, they are surrounded by people who are incapable of normal relationships, no one understands them, they repel most women, and they don’t make a lot of money.

If you try to choose the right career path for yourself, you will probably pick something that won’t make you happy, and you may very well pick something you’re not good at. Look at Joe Biden.

Peterson says you should make a plan to get the life you want. That may work, if you have a simple goal, like becoming a lawyer. If you want to do anything unusual, you will probably be unable to come up with a good plan at the start. I admit, though, making a plan is the least challenging thing he mentioned.

Sticking to the plan, like Peterson says…okay, just do that. Like you stuck to your New Year’s resolutions. Like you eat salad twice a day and run 70 miles a week and never file an extension on your taxes. Just make a multi-year plan and execute it. Because everyone can do that. Nothing will happen to mess with your plan, and you will never lack motivation or self-discipline. Why didn’t anyone else think of this? The truth was staring us right in the face, and we missed it.

Here’s another problem: your plan may not work, even if you make a good effort. My plan to become a physicist didn’t work, even though I was smart enough. I got burned out and then fried my mind with ADD drugs, trying to stay in the game. Hillary Clinton’s plan to be president didn’t work out, and she really tried. Ronda Rousey’s plan to retire undefeated and become a major movie star didn’t work out. Things often don’t work out. Then you’re back to the challenge of trying to choose a destiny.

Telling people not to screw up their families is not helpful at all. Having a healthy family is not a method you can apply. It’s a goal you want to attain. Saying, “Treat your family right so they won’t be dysfunctional,” is like coaching a football team and saying, “Let’s win by carrying the ball across the finish line more than the other guys do.” The players already know they’re supposed to do that. Every man knows he’s supposed to treat his family right and try to keep everyone functioning, but there is no standard, reliable method for doing it. Peterson doesn’t provide one.

The other day I was writing about Dave Chappelle, and I compared him to Eddie Murphy and Elvis Presley, who went nuts because they believed what their sycophants told them. Like Presley and Murphy, Chappelle is starting to wear weird, unique clothing, as if he were a superhero. Chappelle Man, visiting briefly from Mount Olympus to save the world with edgy observational humor no white man can utter without being destroyed by the agents of evil.

Peterson may be dealing with similar issues. All sorts of angry men, especially single ones who deserve to be single, are telling him he’s their voice, their oracle, their deliverer, their testosterone singularity, and based on his performances, I get the impression he’s buying it. He is really, really certain he’s right about things. He sounds as though he thinks what he does is extraordinarily important.

I’ll tell you what. There are Christians out there baptizing other people with the Spirit of Holiness. There are Christians making tumors disappear and healing kids of autism. Christians have ended addictions permanently. Christians cast demons out of people. They connect people with God so they can hear him and be guided by the best plan-maker on Earth. It’s hard for me to be impressed by a psychologist. I am old, I have known a lot of people, many of them have been to psychiatrists and psychologists, and I have never heard one person say a shrink fixed his problems for good.

You can’t fix the world’s problems, or even your own, by being smart and going to college. Making plans with your unaided mind won’t make your life work.

Peterson says he’s a Christian, but it’s not the kind of Christianity we see in the Bible. The Bible’s Christianity is about miracles and supernatural knowledge, coupled with ridding people of demons and filling them instead with God’s Spirit. Peterson’s Christianity is like C.S. Lewis’s. It’s the kind of Christianity that doesn’t embarrass snobs. It’s filled with all sorts of excuses. “I know brilliant people like me aren’t supposed to be Christians, but…” What you’re really saying is, “World, please love me and admire me, even though you hate Jesus.”

Peterson has explained his conversion in intellectualspeak, and that’s distressing to read, because a much smarter person than either of us said this: “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.”

You can’t become a real Christian and hold onto the pride you take in your mind. You have to give up some dignity. You have to be willing to speak in tongues and sound like you’re babbling. You have to let people command demons to come out of you, in front of other people. You have to get down on the floor and put your face on it while people watch. You have to tell God you’re disgusting and low, and that you deserve hell. These things are facts.

You have to believe Noah’s ark was real.

Christianity is embarrassing to many smart people. They have to make excuses for it. They have to have arguments that make them sound clever. They’re just bringing attention to their pride, and pride is the worst quality a person can have.

The man who was probably the greatest Christian of the last century was an illiterate plumber who didn’t learn to read until he was married. The disciples were uneducated country boys. Amos was a farmer. Elisha was a teamster who stopped plowing and killed two of his oxen for a goodbye feast when he was called.

The high priest and his father-in-law, with the consent of most of the Jewish sages in Jerusalem, had Jesus murdered. Solomon, the wisest man who lived before Jesus, became an idolater and died in disgrace. Paul was a disciple of a top rabbi, and he rounded up Messianic Jews so they could be murdered. It wasn’t until he was humbled that God saw fit to use him. Paul cast out demons and spoke in tongues. He didn’t scare demons by memorizing the Talmud. Not that it existed yet.

Paul said, “not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called.” If you’re bright, you should be glad you made it instead of trying to distinguish yourself from all the NASCAR-watching mouth-breathers who believe for foolish, tribal reasons.

Christianity isn’t something you have to apologize for or explain sheepishly as though you were telling people why you never change your underwear. The excuses don’t make you sound smart. They prove you’re insecure or ignorant.

Here is a quotation from a Peterson interview:

Sometimes, the objective world and the narrative world ‘touch’—you know, that’s Jungian synchronicity—and I’ve seen that many times in my own life. And so, in some sense, I believe it’s undeniable. You know, we have narrative sense of the world. For me that’s been the world of morality, that’s the world that tells us how to act. Its real, we treat it like it’s real. It’s not the objective world, but the narrative and the objective world touch.

And the ultimate example of that in principle is supposed to be Christ. But I don’t know what to do with that…it seems to me to be oddly plausible. But I still don’t know what to make of it. Partly because it’s too terrifying a reality to fully believe. I don’t even know what would happen to you if you fully believed it.

I think he’s trying, but honestly, it’s like something you would hear at a cocktail party on the Upper West Side. Everyone knows you’re smart. You don’t need to keep proving it. Just BELIEVE and surrender. Get used to having blue collar friends who buy their furniture at Costco. Lay hands on somebody. Jesus was smarter than Peterson, and he communicated like a regular person. He wouldn’t have dropped Jung’s name.

By the way, synchronicity is supernatural. It happens because we are surrounded by spirits. It happens a lot to Spirit-led Christians.

Jordan Peterson, Donald Trump, Thomas Sowell, Milton Friedman, and the Proud Boys couldn’t fix the world, or you, if they got together and worked at it every day. The Holy Spirit is our prescription. We shouldn’t be self-medicating.

Listening for the Wrong Trump

This morning I woke up and turned Youtube on to see if there were any new videos from ministries I like. I didn’t see any. What I did see was a video from the 700 club, in which Paula White, the rich money-gospel preacher who got caught vacationing in Rome with Benny Hinn, pimped her new book.

It was disappointing to see the 700 Club associate itself with White, but it’s not the greatest ministry on Earth. You can’t expect too much. They do a lot of good work, but they also slip. The other day they showed Pat Robertson saying the Bible wasn’t perfect.

I started looking through my subscribed channels for updates, and I found myself unsubscribing to one after another. I just found myself doing it. It wasn’t planned. I got rid of a lot of junk. I believe I dumped all my news channels, except for one about natural disasters.

After watching a little bit of the Paula White video, I went around looking at videos of other people who help destroy the church. I left some extremely harsh, honest comments on videos featuring Kat Kerr, Ralph Messer, and Johnny Enlow. I’ve blogged about them before.

Messer is a fake rabbi. He’s also a fake Jew. He’s a gentile who underwent a dubious conversion process and then started promoting himself as a Jew who spoke for Jews and Israel.

A Christian accused him of offering him Hebrew lessons and refusing to provide them. Supposedly, Messer tried to discourage him later, and when Messer was challenged to read the language, he was only able to get through a few words, sounding the letters out like a kindergarten student.

Messer wrapped megachurch preacher Eddie Long in a torah scroll and claimed God had made Long a king. Long allowed a bunch of deluded people to lift him on their shoulders and carry him around. He got criticized so much, he eventually apologized. Then he was accused of multiple homosexual predations, and not long after, he became emaciated and died, causing people to assume he had had AIDS.

Messer also used a torah scroll to wrap White, claiming it gave her God’s protection. It didn’t protect her from having her involvement with Hinn exposed.

Sadly, President Trump let White advise her, along with some other wolves. I have speculated that Trump’s involvement with Satanic preachers helped cost him the election. The money preachers love to say they can make anyone successful, but in reality, the prosperity gospel curses you financially and at work. Looks like it even works on billionaires.

Messer has founded what some call a cult, and he has a Youtube channel where he turns off comments. Like a cockroach, he runs from light. He can’t turn off comments on other channels where he appears, however. It doesn’t look like his ministry is doing well. His videos tend to cluster below two thousand views, and some are in the hundreds.

Kerr is amazing. She’s an elderly woman who has dyed her hair bright pink. She claims she has been to heaven a number of times. She speaks in an ordinary voice until she starts prophesying, and then she bellows in a very imperious way, as though anyone who dares to doubt her is about to get a good smiting.

Didn’t Paul say women should be silent in church? Does a woman who thinks Donald Trump is president know more than Paul did?

She said Trump would win. Then he lost, and she said he would be reinstated. As far as I know, she is still pushing this insanity, and the amazing thing is that people are crawling to Youtube to lick her shoes and tell her how wonderful she is.

Enlow is another failed Trump prophet, and my understanding is that he is still highly critical of people who don’t believe Trump will be reinstated. He says Trump will be back in 2021, which only has two months to run. He pushes the Seven Mountains Mandate, which, unlike the Bible, holds that Christians will take over the world and fix it. Now, not after the tribulation.

It’s a little strange that Enlow pushes a doctrine named for seven mountains, when the Revelation says the Great Whore who will be punished is a city that sits on seven mountains.

To show how crazy Enlow has gone, assuming he’s not just making things up for fun, he has said he saw a vision of Trump on a throne in heaven, with a crown and scepter of gold. I thought Trump was a great president, but I don’t think God made a golden throne in heaven for a casino owner and persistent adulterer.

Enlow has said, “The Lord said, ‘Your nation will be known as before Trump and after Trump, the whole world will be known as before Trump, after Trump.'”

We are definitely A.T. now.

Enlow says God gives us a “Trump test.” It appears to work like this: if you support Trump and believe he won the election, God will bless you above other people, but if you don’t, you will “come under the judgment.”

I’ll provide a quotation.

If you go against God’s person that he’s using, his instrument, even if you think you have 100 percent devotion to God, it’s going to cost you.

More:

This is a line in the sand, this “Trump Test,” it’s been clearer than ever . . . and who’s being advanced and blessed? Ministries that are advancing in blessing and who I see in increased anointing and who are seeing more–they’re seeing more favor, they’re seeing more revelatory–are people who didn’t back off Trump.

Enlow says it’s not enough to devote yourself completely to Christ. He says God also requires you to back Trump.

So, to sum up, Trump sits in heaven with a golden crown and scepter, he won the election, he is going to be reinstated within the next 60 or so days, and if you don’t agree, God is going to punish you.

New Year’s Day is approaching fast, and Biden or Harris will be in the Oval Office. Johnny Enlow’s fans will have no problem with that, because something blinds them to reality.

People like to say that anyone who opposes God’s anointed will suffer, so I make a point of opposing frauds like this openly and repeatedly. God never anointed anyone to lie about presidential elections. Prophecy is God himself, speaking. The Bible says God is not a man, that he should lie.

I believe God blesses me for criticizing people like this. I don’t fear lightning bolts out of the blue because I said Kenneth Copeland or Joyce Meyer were wrong. I believe a person who honors a false prophet gets a false prophet’s reward. In the Bible, people who confronted false prophets pleased God.

How are we supposed to get to know God when we have to fight other purported Christians as well as our flesh, unbelievers, and evil spirits?

Jesus said a house divided against itself would not stand. We always assume he was talking about Satan’s house, and I’m sure he was, but the same thing is happening to the church. Which is also Satan’s house most of the time, now that I think about it. Christians are supposed to be unified by the Holy Spirit, but very few of us listen to him, so most of us are out of order, fighting each other and ourselves for the enemy.

Preachers are the very best soldiers Satan has. No one else comes close. They drive people away from God. They lead them into snares. They make them hate church. They steal their money. They even rape their children, and I don’t just mean Catholics. Protestants do it, too.

Right now, as I sit typing this, many, many preachers in America are teaching people Hinduism and African spirit worship. Yoga and meditation are Hindu practices, and the saints Catholics worship represent the Yoruba spirits that were worshiped in Egypt, Greece, and Rome under different names.

Ya just has to worship the fallen angel. Ya doesn’t have ta call him Ray.

Preachers are telling people Christianity is just a philosophy. They’re saying heaven and hell aren’t real. They’re denying the manifestations of the Holy Spirit. They’re saying God is in favor of sodomy.

They’re encouraging people to celebrate Halloween, which is Satanism’s biggest holiday. Only ignorant or stubborn Christians involve themselves with Halloween. It brings curses on them and their children. Why not celebrate Beltane while you’re at it?

No wonder the age of the church is ending. I don’t think we could have stood much more of it.

It’s amazing how deluded Christians are. The unhinged riot troops and wokiees of the left are clearly insane, but we seem not to notice the craziness in the church and on the right.

My friend Mike met a new lady, and yesterday they met. He sent me a photo. She was wearing a black top with the word “BOO!” on it. That’s going nowhere.

I am finally starting to have what I think is a helpful level of fear of God. I prayed for it for years. I couldn’t generate it on my own. It’s finally here. It helps me stay out of the minefields. At the same time, I find myself disengaging more and more from the world. I was surprised when I found myself dropping Youtube channels, but it felt very good.

I woke up in the middle of the night and started criticizing myself to God. I brought up some of the horrible deeds, words, and thoughts I wish I could cut out of my past with a scalpel. I can be forgiven, but I can never make them not have happened.

I thought about how evil I am and how evil the world is. As I so often do, I asked him to give me and my wife whatever we have to be given, and to remove whatever has to be taken away, in order to clean us up and prepare us for the rapture or death.

People say the world has seemed like it was ending before, and they think I’m wrong when I opine that the tribulation is close, but I can’t swallow what they say. We are in an unsustainable situation. Knowledge is giving us power we will never be able to control. On top of that, the three evil horsemen of Revelation 6 appear to be loose, globally. Has that ever happened before?

We are much more evil than we understand, and so is this world. If a person could see a thousandth of a percent of the horrors that are taking place right this second, he would probably be unable to do anything but lie in the fetal position with his hands over his eyes. We are complacent and numb, so we don’t perceive evil very well.

The surface of this planet isn’t hell, but it is a place of unimaginably great agony, humiliation, malice, and hopelessness. The fact that you’re feeling okay in your warm house right now doesn’t change that.

We are used to being used to evil, so now that human evil has been magnified greatly, we have grown more calluses to keep us from feeling bad about it. Many of us still have our coffee and slippers, we’re not in the hospital or prison, and we’re not broke, so life seems good. Meanwhile, the pillars that hold up the world have been eaten most of the way through.

I keep saying the rapture isn’t just a moment; it’s a process. If you’re still defending yourself and doing as you please, you won’t be ready when the moment comes. The people who are taken will have been preparing. They will already have been raptured away from toxic jobs, infectious people, and corrupting activities. The really blessed ones will have been removed from ungodly areas. God isn’t going to come to a Halloween party and rapture you out of your Slutty Witch costume just because you watch Joel Osteen.

Christianity is like coronavirus. The Middle East had it and recovered. Turkey was a hotspot, and it overcame the infection. Europe had it, spread it, and recovered. America had it for a while, and she is getting over it. Now parts of Africa have it. If the Lord waits, they’ll get over it, too. Jesus has to put in the sickle before everyone gets over it.

You Can’t Buy Charm Like This

My golden touch has worked again. I got myself banned from another gun forum.

My first ban was over at Rimfire Central. They banned me for spamming. Having no product or service to offer anyone, I did not spam, but when I contacted the poobahs to point out the mistake, they didn’t reply. I could have done the customary thing. I could have made up another name and registered from a new email address. I didn’t bother.

My second ban took place at The High Road, where I had the gall to suggest that Massad Ayoob, a gun writer and part-time small-town cop with zero legal education was wrong to run around giving the masses dangerous legal advice. Ayoob tells shooters to talk to the police and try to convince them they’re innocent. Unbelievably stupid suggestion. Infinite wrongness.

On that forum, Ayoob calls himself “Kleanbore,” which is a trademark that was used by Remington on ammunition boxes. There are a lot of ammunition-related words I would have picked before that one, but anyway, that’s his handle. If you want some legal advice that can put you on the end of an executioner’s needle, you can Google his posts.

Ayoob and the forum silverbacks are buds, so even though what I said was correct and had the potential to keep people out of prison, I got the boot. I had failed to kowtow to their pal. Ayoob has continued to post Youtube videos encouraging people to do exactly what law schools and nearly all defense attorneys beg clients NOT to do. I have to wonder if any of his fans have been imprisoned yet.

They won’t go to prison over anything that happened in high-school-sized Grantham, New Hampshire, where Ayoob probably spent his time writing parking tickets or manning a speed trap. No one ever gets shot there.

Now I’ve been booted from another forum for talking down to other members. Perhaps I am guilty.

I was writing about the Alec Baldwin killing, and some person who is not a lawyer was writing very irrational things. He was arguing with me, among others, and I was trying to be gentle. He eventually called other members of the forum, which would presumably include me, bigoted, hateful zealots. He said we posted “bigoted, hateful, zealot opinions” because we said we thought Baldwin was negligent. That’s when I told him his legal opinions were worthless and misguided, which was factually correct, if blunt. I also said I had graduated from law school, cum laude. That may be what got me in trouble.

Gun forums don’t attract a lot of educated people. I don’t know why that is, but if you go to a random gun forum, wade into a discussion, and say you’re a lawyer, you can pretty much count on not having any other lawyers join in. I know of one lawyer at The High Road, but cursory Googling suggests he’s a low-level attorney who handles disputes for insurance companies. I don’t see him getting tapped for the Supreme Court any time soon.

My dad, who was a truly superb lawyer, told me that insurance companies don’t hire the worst, and they don’t hire the best. They spend what they think is enough money to get people who are capable of giving them an acceptable return on investment. They settle a lot, so they don’t seem interested in hiring actual litigators who can win trials.

It may be that I offended people when I pointed out that I was educated. That wasn’t my plan. I was trying to make this guy understand that I was not talking out of my hat when I suggested I knew more than he did or that he was saying silly things.

Most people don’t argue with doctors, and they wouldn’t try to tell an engineer how to design a truss, but everyone feels entitled to offer ridiculous legal opinions. It’s amazing.

If I were going to brag about something, it wouldn’t be graduating cum laude from law school. I think it means you broke a 3.0, in a field that attracts people who can’t make it as pre-meds. Getting a law school B is like getting an A in an undergraduate course, but then getting an A in a typical undergraduate course is nothing to crow about.

As I’ve often said, I’m embarrassed that I had to go to law school, because I did it after failing to get a Ph.D. in physics. I got burned out and had to quit. Then I graduated cum laude instead of magna or summa. Admittedly, I spent very little time working, but still. I did not clothe myself with glory. I did a little bit better than okay in my last-resort career field.

I remember when I found out I got cum laude. I was on the phone with a friend, and he congratulated me. I had no idea what he was talking about.

On the forum, I also aired a general grievance about the unpleasantness of being a lawyer and engaging in discussions with people who are not lawyers. It’s stomach-churning. I probably should have kept that to myself. It may have looked like I was belittling everyone else on the forum.

In my defense, I have to say that if a doctor told me it was frustrating to argue with non-doctors, I would not be offended at all. I would understand. It must send a lot of doctors looking for Maalox. If I said stupid things to him about medical conditions or treatments, and he contradicted me and told me why I was wrong, I would not insult him. I have been in that position. If he said my erroneous medical opinions were worthless and misguided, after I had said something nasty about him for disagreeing with me, no fair person would fault him.

The funny thing is that I got banned right after I quit the forum. As I have said here, I am tired of reading the news because it sucks the joy out of me and makes me mad, and I was also tired of responding to astonishingly wrong opinions about manslaughter. I decided not to go back to the forum. Then I went back.

My grandfather had a Browning Hi-Power pistol. I inherited precisely zero of his many nice guns from his estate, and many were never accounted for. I have my suspicions, but my solution to the problem has been to forgive and go out and buy much better versions of the guns my grandfather had, and to shoot them much better, with much more knowledge, than anyone in the family. When I decided to get a Hi-Power, I learned that FN had stopped making them about half an hour earlier. They were no longer in gun stores, and people were asking way too much for guns they had managed to buy at the last minute.

Five days ago, without my knowledge, Springfield Armory released a new version of the Hi-Power. It’s called the SA-35. It’s far better than the old gun, and the price is great. Because I didn’t learn about it until today, of course, every single SA-35 on planet Earth has been bought, and people are trying to sell this $700 gun on Gunbroker for $1400. I can’t predict the future, but I’ll bet I won’t be able to get one for less than a grand, ever, and since I won’t be gouged, that would mean no SA-35 for me, period.

More or less the same thing happened to me, twice. Maybe next month I’ll find out FN is making Hi-Powers again, two days after gun stores run dry.

I felt an urge to visit the forum to see if anyone had written about the SA-35. That’s when I saw I had been banned.

I think this was the first time I actually felt bad about being banned. I could have been more polite, and I liked some of the members. On the other hand, I felt like God was helping me do what I had already decided to do.

I sent the forum police a note saying there were no hard feelings and that they should keep up the good work, meaning they should continue supporting our Second Amendment rights. I don’t expect a response. People who run forums tend to hide behind their keyboards.

It’s good that I’m no longer going over there to provoke myself, but it’s also good to be isolated from that crowd. There had been a number of posts about going to war with the left, and they didn’t seem to get much in the way of negative feedback. I don’t belong to the militia crowd. I think they’re extremely deluded, and they may boil over and cause a civil war that will fail to liberate the country while wasting a lot of blood.

There were also occasional posts that seemed racist, and they didn’t seem to get much opposition. The other day, a woman shot up her neighborhood driving off two or three black thieves, and one of the forum members who saw the video said something about a thief tripping over his lips. There is no plausible non-racist reason for making a crack like that.

I’m not exposing anyone by mentioning these things, because the contents of the forum are already available to everyone. You don’t have to be a member to read.

Maybe I should have quit the first time I saw an unsavory remark go unchallenged, but in this world, you will often find yourself in a large group of people that contains a few bad apples without being so corrupt you find it necessary to leave. If you maintain a zero-tolerance policy, you may end up more socially isolated than you really ought to be.

I went to church with black racists and anti-Semites, and I didn’t let them get to me. I was patient and gave them slack because I knew the social pressures they faced. I worked for a boss who was prejudiced against everyone, including people like me who were born in Kentucky, but I didn’t quit. I worked in a bar where the employees were unquestionably racists, but I needed the work. When I was in high school, some of my wealthy Jewish friends used the N-word without shame. One of my best Cuban friends in Miami sometimes made racist remarks after a few beers, and I took a long time to withdraw from him. Everyone who lives in Miami knows you can’t socialize with Cubans without hearing things like that sometimes. Life is full of social judgment calls.

The weird thing is that I had just gone back to the forum after seven months away. I had left because some people were annoying and others were saying the types of objectionable things I mention above. I had been back for two weeks when I quit and got ejected simultaneously.

I went back because I wanted advice on a potential gun purchase, and I thought the forum was the best source available without joining another forum and complicating my life. I thought I wouldn’t involve myself beyond hit-and-run posts about firearms. Then I saw posts that interested me, and I fell off the wagon.

I should have stuck to my plan. I should have ducked in and out, getting useful information without letting anything unpleasant stick to me. I may have offended some very nice people. I will never know, because the guy who bans people removed me before I could find anything out.

I think the Internet may be a prediction device. If you read blogs, Internet comments, forums, and so on, you can probably see how Americans will treat each other face to face in a few years, when they get brave enough. I’m not sure. In any case, it’s best to try not to get pulled along with the crowd. Anger and unforgiveness send people to hell, so I keep trying to limit what I expose myself to.

As for the Hi-Power or SA-35, I am not crazy enough about it to pay the cost, and I don’t have any practical use for it. They’re too big to carry, they hold fewer rounds than modern full-size guns, they weigh a lot, their triggers are not great, they have delicate finishes, and to me, the only purpose a Hi-Power serves is fun. If I could get one for anything close to MSRP, I would buy it, but that’s impossible, so I’ll let it go.

Deliverance is Nearer Than I Thought

It’s time for me to cut back on looking at the news again. I keep seeing startling indications that the world is ending, and it adversely affects my motivation. It gives me the feeling that there is no point in doing much, because there is no future for me here.

I call it “depression by proxy.” In ordinary depression, you condemn yourself and tell yourself you’re doomed to endless suffering and failure. It worries you, destroys your motivation, and can make you want to kill yourself. This is not what’s happening to me.

In depression by proxy involving the self-destruction of others, you feel that other people are doomed. You don’t see much point in interacting with them or participating in their world, because whatever you do that involves them will be destroyed along with them.

I don’t believe I can have kids and watch them grow to adulthood. I don’t think I can start a business or write more books. I don’t believe America is going to get better and that people will start to get along again. I believe hate and sin will increase faster and faster, shortages will make people all over the globe completely miserable, violence and disease will take over the world, and Christians and Jews will be tormented and murdered en masse, along with various other groups. I believe totalitarianism is a few months or years away. We’re already feeling the sharp end of the nail.

Unlike a person who has ordinary depression, I don’t feel bad about my prospects. I think my future and that of my wife are extremely bright. I don’t expect us to suffer much, and I’m enjoying life. The problem is that I feel we’re in a holding pattern in a place where there isn’t much for us to do.

It seems that the earth is washed up, but heaven isn’t ready to take us yet, so I spend my time trying to get closer to God and amusing myself with trivial pursuits.

Reading the news makes me feel there is no point in mowing my yard, watching my weight, maximizing my wealth, and so on. I keep feeling we won’t be here much longer. I can’t imagine living another 30 years in an America even filthier and more hostile than the degraded nation I see around me today. What’s happening seems unsustainable. There is too much positive negative feedback for us to achieve escape velocity later on.

The latest journalistic gem is a story about Hazard, Kentucky. Hazard is right up the road from the town where my dad was raised. It’s in coal country, in Eastern Kentucky.

Coal country is a white rural ghetto. As liberal writer Harry Caudill was heard to say, everyone who had any get up and go got up and went. People who were more or less on top of things fled the area a long time ago, leaving an abnormally high concentration of people with trashy values.

My dad’s dad, who died before I was born, was supposedly very intelligent, but he was not able to get a college education. He took a bookkeeping course and became a bookkeeper for the Elkhorn Coal Company at its Kona camp, and he went on to become a county clerk and sheriff. His wife was a cold, vacuous person who didn’t amount to anything or form attachments. He had three children.

My eldest aunt got a master’s degree, married a radiation embryologist, and moved to Tennessee, where the state university employed him as a professor. She became a highly respected, very industrious teacher. Her younger sister got a math degree, married a NASA engineer, and moved to Huntsville. My dad got a law degree, excelled to the point where he had no place in primitive Kentucky courtrooms, and moved to Tampa, where he became head of the litigation department of a large firm while in his early thirties.

They got up and went, as Caudill put it. He said the coal country had suffered a brain drain, and my family shows how it worked. When the capable people leave an area, the atmosphere changes for the worse.

A typical person living in Eastern Kentucky would likely be incensed to read what I’m writing, but it’s completely true. I don’t think I should let concerns about people’s irrational, counterproductive responses turn me into an enabler. If I tell the truth, and you can’t handle it, it’s 100% your fault. Eastern Kentucky needs tough love, not mindless pride and approval.

My relatives almost never talk to me now, and I never hear from anyone else up there. I’m pretty sure only one relative knows I’m married. I don’t expect to visit Kentucky again unless someone dies. If I make someone in Kentucky mad, it will have no impact on my life.

I miss my family, but when you become a Christian, people abandon you. On the up side, I’m much closer to one cousin than I used to be. I baptized her here in my pool.

Hazard has a high school. The high school had an event. Girls showed up wearing Hooters uniforms, and boys dressed in women’s underwear and gave lap dances to male staffers on the basketball court. One of the male staffers was principle Donald “Happy” Mobelini, perhaps nicknamed for Happy Chandler, a famous Kentucky governor (whose real name was Albert). Students and staffers also paddled each other. The name of the event is the Man Pageant, and while this year’s version was more extreme than usual, it is a tradition at the school.

Let’s not forget that “Hooters” means “breasts,” or that the Hooters logo, which the girls wore on their minor chests, is supposed to look like breasts.

So, what did Hazard High celebrate? Lewdness, homosexuality, fornication, statutory rape, abandonment of professional ethics, and sado-masochism. On the basketball court. In front of cameras.

What are we seeing here? Fatherlessness in action. No real father would allow his children to attend this event, let alone participate. God, the primary father, is not very popular among coal country people, unless unsupported lip service counts, so it’s not surprise that Perry County dads are failing so badly. The fatherless make bad fathers.

In the past, rural towns were resistant to the propagation of sexual perversion. Many were full of fornication and adultery, but young homosexuals tended to get out and move to cities so they could get more sexual action and find acceptance. Knowing Eastern Kentucky as I do, I am amazed that Kentucky boys and men would put on a show featuring boys in women’s underwear, simulating or performing sexual services for men. Is it like this all over rural America? If so, then Satan has made a huge advance and broken through an important level of resistance.

Not long ago, a country musician made a music video with a gay black rapper. I think the deranged motive was to suggest that country musicians weren’t really racists. Just guessing. The obvious point that needs to be made is that you can build bridges between races without endorsing perversion. You don’t have to choose one of the gay world’s leading evangelists. You could choose CeCe Winans.

The rapper has made a video in which he dies, goes to hell, and gives Satan a lap dance, bending over in front of him with his buttocks spread.

Is there a connection between this rapper’s acceptance by country music fans and what happened in Hazard? If so, he’s more effective than I thought.

Are men and boys doing things like this all over the rural South, or is it just places like Hazard that were already morally backward? Are male high school students in Georgia and Tennessee dancing in drag?

To me, it suggests the apocalypse is unfolding even more quickly than I thought. It’s like seeing Trump rallies break out in Berkeley. A possible sea change.

I felt very sad when I read about Hazard. I felt tears rising. Seeing the photos of these kids was like looking at the scene of an accident where a number of people had died. I felt separation.

Society is being centrifuged to separate one component from another. God’s children are being lifted away from the children of darkness, and we can’t do very much about it. Sin is now combined with pride, and pride is sin’s armor. The perpetrators of the Hazard spectacle seemed like dead people to me, because my impression was that they would never be willing to listen to the truth and be saved.

To get back to the point, I think it’s time to cut back, once again, on my consumption of news. It doesn’t seem to be doing anything good for me. God once told me to stop reading the news, and I felt better when I complied. I will pray and see if he wants me to do it again.

A person who claimed to have visited heaven said people there were not able to see what was happening on Earth. Supposedly, they had some general information about world events, but that was it. I hope that’s true. Fox and CNN would ruin heaven for me.

Lesbians Lose the Right to Choose

I read a very disturbing story last night on a BBC site. Men who think they’re women are now exerting tremendous pressure on actual women to have sex with them, and rapes have been reported. That’s not all that shocking. What’s shocking is that many leftist women are on the side of the men.

The subject is upsetting and gross. I don’t know if sensitive people should read what I’m writing.

You would think men who try to become women would then want to have sex with men. You would expect them to be male homosexuals. It looks like that is often not the case. I don’t know what the majority of them want, but many expect women to desire them and fornicate with them, and they are targeting lesbians.

It’s a remarkable thing; men who haven’t had their penises removed are pressuring actual women to fornicate with them, based on their new imaginary status as women. Many leftists are backing them up, saying “genital preference” is bigotry. If a lesbian wants a woman without male organs, she’s a threat to emerging standards of gender and sexual behavior.

It gets worse. So many shemales are striking out with lesbians a new term has been coined. It’s sickening. The term is “cotton ceiling.”

We all know about the glass ceiling. Some women in the workforce say they can only rise so high. Once they get to a certain point, they say, they can see higher positions from where they are, but they can’t break through and reach them.

The cotton ceiling works the same way, except “cotton” refers to women’s underwear, and shemales are the ones who want to break through.

Could anything be more dehumanizing or disgusting? They make it sound like there are herds of resentful, entitled shemales out there, looking forward to a day when women will have to give them what they want.

Let’s think about women’s complaints about normal men who want to fornicate. They say many men feel entitled. They say they are coercive and often frightening. Lesbians, in particular, complain a lot about heterosexual men who don’t like to take “no” for an answer. They are tired of men who say, “Try it; you’ll like it.”

Now women are saying the same things about people who also claim to be women, and other women, real and fake, are saying the women who are complaining don’t have the right to say no.

How did we get here? Every time our strange new world presents a new curveball, that’s the question I hear myself asking.

Aren’t leftists feminists? Aren’t feminists pumped up about boundaries and a woman’s right to rule her own body? What happened to all that?

Leftist women are literally telling other women they are required to date and have sex with people they find physically repulsive. Who needs patriarchy? The matriarchy is going places where patriarchy doesn’t dare tread. The matriarchy is becoming the new rape culture.

You have to picture the scenarios that are taking place. Imagine a real woman, going on a guilt date with a man in a dress. The woman may weigh 110 pounds. The man may be six two and 220, muscular and fit because he works out and still has testicles, and he has the power and moral authority of woke on his side. Picture them alone in his apartment on a Friday night. How would you like to be her?

Then when sex occurs, through intimidation or plain old rape, other women side with the man.

These things are happening. It’s not a movie.

If I were single, no woman on Earth would say any other woman was obligated to “give me a chance.” No woman would say a lesbian was in the wrong for wanting nothing to do with my equipment. No woman would dream of telling another woman she was obligated to be attracted to me, date me, or fornicate with me. But put me in a dress, and all that changes?

Why?

Does every lesbian real woman also have to agree to date every other lesbian real woman? Do pretty lesbians have to have sex with fat, old, ugly lesbians? If not, why are shemales privileged?

If you want to see how insane leftist women have become, check out some quotations from the story I read.

I was told that homosexuality doesn’t exist and I owed it to my trans sisters to unlearn my ‘genital confusion’ so I can enjoy letting them penetrate me.

“[They] threatened to out me as a terf and risk my job if I refused to sleep with [them] . . . I was too young to argue and had been brainwashed by queer theory so [they were] a ‘woman’ even if every fibre of my being was screaming throughout so I agreed to go home with [them]. [They] used physical force when I changed my mind upon seeing [their] penis and raped me.

“They” comes from the article. It refers to a man. A terf is a feminist who isn’t on board with the notion that men are women. My guess: the victim wrote “he,” and the BBC “corrected” her.

Lesbians are still extremely scared to speak because they think they won’t be believed, because the trans ideology is so silencing everywhere.

saying “lesbians don’t date trans women because they are literally lesbians, they’re attracted to women, not men” is transphobic

what is genital preferences if not a fancy way of saying ‘i am transphobic’

I’m sorry if you’re going to be mad at this but yes it is transphobic to have a genital preference no ifs or ands about it nothing you say can change that

I thought I would be called a transphobe or that it would be wrong of me to turn down a trans woman who wanted to exchange nude pictures . . . Young women feel pressured to sleep with trans women ‘to prove I am not a terf’.

It truly appears that a pathetic, rejected man who is obsessed with sex and unable to get it honestly can buy makeup and women’s clothes and start getting action. All it takes is the mindset of a rapist.

I’m not defending lesbianism. That’s another issue. I’m saying no one has the right to choose someone else’s sex partner. No woman should have to choose between rape and cancellation.

What if we truly are seeing the emergence of a left-wing canon that says you have no right to turn down sex with perverts? That would be interesting from a historical context, because it happened in Sodom, and Jesus said he would return in times that were like the days of Sodom.

In the story of Lot’s rescue, two angels went to Sodom to look around. A gang of entitled homosexual men gathered in the street and insisted Lot send the angels out so they could be gang-raped. That is what we call “entitlement” in 2021. Entitlement is rising all around us, exactly unlike the creeping, barely noticeable rise in the levels of our oceans. If fake men are entitled to sex with unwilling lesbians, who is to say homosexual men are not entitled to sex with unwilling normal men?

After all, leftists say a woman who insists on a lover with real female parts is evil, transphobic, and guilty of genital preference. Doesn’t that mean normal men who also insist on real female parts are evil and homophobic? If a lesbian who refuses to have sex with a shemale is in the wrong, what about a man who won’t allow himself to be sodomized?

Suddenly, insisting on choosing your own partner is AGGRESSION. If that’s true, then isn’t rape self-defense?

We know male-on-male gang rape will probably become popular, simply because of the prediction Jesus made. Until this week, I didn’t see a social pathway to gang-rape victory. Now the bread crumbs are laid out. A year from now, we may be hearing about the anal ceiling.

I can’t see God leaving his reasonably faithful servants on this planet when Sodom-style mass violation becomes common. I think there are some things he would not let us suffer, just as he didn’t allow Jesus to suffer sexual mistreatment. Kenneth Copeland claims Jesus was molested by Roman soldiers, but then Kenneth Copeland is a liar whose ego has consumed his brain.

I wish the rapture would come today. Human behavior has become surreal.

A lot of people are applauding Dave Chappelle for refusing to stop making trans jokes. They’re misguided. I admit, when I saw that Chappelle said he would not be “summoned” or bow to shemales, I felt like rooting for him, but here is the truth: Dave Chappelle is nuts. He has serious mental problems. Chappelle is the guy who quit a popular show without warning and went into a mental hospital because he was offended by a racist skit he himself wrote and starred in.

You can tell Chappelle is crazy by looking at what he wears. He used to dress like a normal human being. The other day, he appeared in a weird green jumpsuit with “CHAPPELLE” printed on the breast in big yellow letters. It reminded me of the idiotic caped suits Elvis Presley wore after he lost his mind, or the ludicrous leather outfits Eddie Murphy started wearing when his ego went nova. It reminded me of Benny Hinn’s insane superhero pastor costume, which is a bizarre custom-made suit with no lapels and a dove sewn into it. Chappelle has lost touch with reality.

When he talks now, Chappelle is still pretty funny, but there are frequent Senator Palpatine moments in which he turns dark and imperious. I don’t know what’s in his future. Maybe he’ll go full-throttle Howard Hughes and surround himself with burly Mormon sycophants who shoot him up with morphine and rough up everyone who tries to talk to him.

Dave Chappelle isn’t against perversion. He supports it. He’s just against being told what to say. We shouldn’t mistake narcissism and the loss of the ability to self-monitor for character or moral soundness.

Anyone with a grain of common sense ought to see something wrong with a self-proclaimed Muslim who smokes his weight in weed every month and supports homosexuality and efforts to change gender. Lots of Muslims love sodomy and pedophilia, but only behind closed doors. Their public stance is quite different.

Chappelle isn’t a hero. He’s just a self-destructive entertainer who likes having his own way.

Choose Carefully

I don’t know if any single men read this blog, because my readers seem to be old, and they are conservative, and conservatives believe in marriage. Between men and women. Actual men and women.

Anyway, I’ll throw this out: if you’re a single Christian man, you really need a Christian wife.

I don’t mean a Mormon or a woman from a gay-pastor church who practices astrology and does yoga. You need to be baptized with the Spirit of Holiness, you need to pray in tongues a lot every day, and you need to demand the same things of the person you marry, BEFORE you start dating. If not, you’re missionary-dating, you will almost certainly fail to convert your wife, the two of you will be weak because you will be trying to lift the couch while your wife is sitting on it, and your life together will have fewer blessings and more curses than necessary.

My wife surprises me all the time when we talk about God. I’ll mention something God is showing me, and she’ll respond with something 100% on-target, usually quoting chapter and verse, which is something I generally can’t do.

I’ll provide one example.

She asked me what I thought of John Hagee, the megachurch preacher. I said I thought his beliefs concerning prophecy came from intense study, which is carnal, not from impartation from the Holy Spirit. I also said he promoted a crazy belief. Hagee says every Jew will be saved.

Rhodah said that was impossible, and as proof, she cited the story (not parable) about the rich man and Lazarus the beggar. Both were dead. The rich man was burning in sheol, and Lazarus was with Abraham. The rich man called Abraham “father,” proving he was a Jew. Jesus himself told us a Jew was in hell.

This kind of interaction between husband and wife is so much better than having arguments about whether it’s okay to dress the kids up like devils and witches and send them out on Halloween. I could never have gone near a woman who would do a thing like that. It’s also better than having a “Christian” wife tell me it’s fine to be a Buddhist and a Christian, because she thinks Buddhism isn’t a religion. It’s better than having a feminist wife who hasn’t accepted the lesson of Genesis 3.

Incidentally, I suppose you could make an argument that the rich man could have been saved. It is commonly believed that after Jesus was crucified, he preached in hell and saved people who were there. That wouldn’t help Judas, though. He was a Jew, and Jesus said he would be lost. He called him the son of perdition. Judas was Jewish.

My friend Mike is dating, and he tells me about the “Christian” women he deals with. He just rejected an astrologist and a Buddhist. I’m using the term “astrologist” to mean “person who practices the religion of astrology.” I don’t know of a better term, so I’m making an executive decision.

The Buddhist tried to tell him Buddhism was only a philosophy. What ignorance. How can anyone adopt a religion or even a philosophy without making even a cursory effort to find out what its nature is?

Buddhism is an offshoot of Hinduism, which is very obviously a religion. Hinduism has false gods, and Hindus worship them. Buddhism has false gods, it says there are demons, and it says there are hells, in addition to reincarnation. It’s a religion.

I’m also glad my wife eats meat and has no patience with bullying leftists who push vegetarianism.

Vegetarianism comes from Satan, and I can explain why he created it. Judaism and Christianity, as well as pre-Jewish worship of Yahweh, require blood sacrifices. Jews and pre-Jews had to kill animals for God. They had no choice. Cain and Abel were required to sacrifice animals. Abraham sacrificed animals. Ancient Jews weren’t permitted to be vegetarians. God required them to eat lamb once a year, and they also had to do something with the gigantic number of animals that were roasted at the temple.

Jesus had to be killed in order for human beings to be saved from hell. The Bible calls him “the lamb that was slain before the foundation of the world.” It calls him our passover. Jesus told us we had to eat his flesh and drink his blood. The passover lamb was given to the Jews as a picture of Jesus.

Vegetarianism is just one of Satan’s many attacks on God’s system. He uses it to divide men and women. He uses it to make women think they’re better than men, who are less likely to be vegetarians. He uses it to make people think Judaism and Christianity are cruel and evil compared to his ridiculous false religions, every one of which leads to the lake of fire.

Only about a third of American men are vegetarians, and only about one-fifth are vegans. I don’t know if these statistics account for the many men who only pretend to be vegetarians or vegans in order to get sex or shut their wives and girlfriends up.

God wants us to know what it is to kill innocent creatures, because he is innocent, and we killed him. He wants us to feel a little bit of what Abraham felt when he tied his son down and prepared to cut his throat. Our sins, not a Roman flagellum, cut into Jesus’ back and tore it open. Yahweh had to participate in the torture and killing of Jesus, and we are not better than Yahweh.

It’s not a coincidence that Hitler, Goebbels, Hess, and other Nazi bigwigs were vegetarians. Nazism was designed to offend God. Its death camps were sick parodies of the temple. The Nazis treated the Jews like offerings, and they did things that were insulting to the God who wrote the Jewish law.

God insists on modesty, but the Nazis made Jews strip naked in large rooms where people of both sexes and all ages were mingled. God says shaving is a punishment, and the Bible even refers to shaving of the private parts. The Nazis shaved Jews from head to toe because of lice. God hates tattoos, so the Nazis tattooed Jews. When Jews slaughter, they have to do it humanely, with knives that don’t have any nicks, and they have to drain out the blood. The Nazis killed using gas, leaving blood in the bodies, and their victims died in terror and physical suffering. God said Jews couldn’t cremate the dead, so the Nazis burned them.

I doubt the Nazis conspired to find ways to insult Yahweh. I think Satan guided them, and they didn’t always understand the spiritual significance of what they did.

I don’t think you have to eat meat to be a good Christian, but it’s wrong for a Christian to think he or she is morally better than people who eat meat.

The older I get, the more God shows me, and the more I realize that traditional roles for husbands and wives are correct, and that newer models are pathological. Women want to be led, and they need it. Men need to accept the responsibility of leading, whether they want to or not. A man must be led by the Holy Spirit, he has to agree to lead his wife, and his wife must be led by the Holy Spirit and her husband. This is the system God ordained, and when you deviate from it, you get problems.

It’s astonishing how powerfully women work to spread idolatry. They love cults. They love botanicas, wicca, astrologers, crystals, cards, meditation, and all the Eastern pus that trickles out of countries where everyone is poor and miserable. The female inclination to rebel is very old. Satan knew Eve had a weakness for idolatry. That’s why he tempted her instead of Adam.

It’s not surprising that Jews have a matriarchal society. They are precious to a masculine God, so Satan attacked their masculinity and made many Jewish men afraid of their wives and mothers. It’s nothing new. Solomon was dominated by his wives, and they led him to worship filthy spirits instead of the God who made him a great king. Ancient Jews commonly worshipped a female spirit called “the queen of heaven” and put her altars in their synagogues.

I see why God said, twice, that it’s better to live in the corner of a rooftop than in a big house with a rebellious woman (Proverbs 21:9; 25:24). What he said, through a man dominated and destroyed by his wives, is literally true. Solomon was a bigger failure than Saul. If he had stayed poor and unable to attract more than one wife, he might have stayed clear of idolatry.

Adam listened to his wife and caused mankind to be cursed for thousands of years. Moses listened to his wife, and God tried to kill him. Bathsheba bathed naked in view of David, and the ensuing sin resulted in a murder, the death of David’s son, and a curse on David’s house. Solomon listened to his wives and wrecked his kingdom, causing an extremely destructive division among Hebrews that was never healed. Then there was Ahab.

I’ve done a lot of stupid things in my life, but I am extremely glad I can say I did not marry a feminist, an idolater, or a fake Christian who decorates the house for Halloween and flies to pro-abortion rallies. Where I could have had friction, failure, and despair, I have three-way synergy with my wife and God.

I know female Christians who are not married and who are obviously feminists who don’t listen to the Holy Spirit. I have prayed for God to help them find men, but now that I think about it, it’s best that they don’t. Not until they give up their pride and rebellion. If I knew a single Christian man looking for a wife, I couldn’t recommend them. I might even tell him to avoid them.

If I ask God to help a rebellious woman find a man, I am asking him to ruin the man’s life and deprive him of something the Bible says is worth more than rubies.

If you can’t submit to God and your husband, it’s best you remain single and get more cats. It really is. Better for you to be lonely and childless than for you to be a snare to someone who might otherwise be happy.

Must be Nice to Have so Many Friends

Is it just me, or is the press doing its best to keep Alec Baldwin from being arrested?

When you see a celebrity in the news, you should never assume it just happened. It doesn’t work that way. Celebrities have publicity agents who call news outlets to plant stories. News outlets are constantly looking for content, and they don’t have the money or manpower to find enough on their own, so much of what you see comes to you via publicity agents.

Seems like every time I look at the news online, I see another story about Liz Hurley, a faded actress, putting on a bikini and posing provocatively. These stories aren’t news. Other celebrities put on bikinis every day, and we don’t see all of them on the web, because no one cares. Hurley’s career is just about over, so she is paying someone to send her photos around. Either that, or she does it herself.

Today I looked at Yahoo News and found 12 stories about actresses who were exposing themselves or drawing attention to their bodies. Journalists aren’t following these women around, hoping they’ll undress. The actresses start the ball rolling, and the journalists are contacted later.

What did we see in legitimate news stories right after Alec Baldwin shot his coworkers? Claims that he said he didn’t know the gun was loaded. Fair enough, but since then, a large number of stories that look very similar to each other have come out, saying he didn’t know the gun contained live ammunition.

A suspicious person would say media organizations called his publicist, or his publicist called them, and they ran with what the publicist told them.

We’re also seeing the phrase “prop gun” used over and over, as though a bullet had miraculously emerged from the barrel of a toy firearm. You can’t run someone through or cut them with a prop sword, because they’re blunt and dull; many are actually made from soft aluminum. You can’t shoot someone with a true prop gun, because they’re non-functional. Some are solid plastic. Baldwin didn’t use a “prop gun.” He used a plain old revolver that had been called into service as a prop. It’s remarkable that so many different copywriters are using the harmless-sounding phrase, “prop gun.” It can’t be coincidental.

It’s not a prop gun. It’s a gun that was used as a prop, or it’s a prop which is a gun. If Vin Diesel drove a Ferrari in a movie, no reporter would call it a “prop Ferrari.”

It’s actually quite weird that there is no such thing as a true, blank-firing prop gun. It would be simple to rechamber a gun so it wouldn’t accept SAAMI loads and then have a reloader make special blanks to fit it. Given the huge budget of a typical movie, spending a few grand per reusable firearm seem like a bargain. If a movie has a budget of 20 million dollars, doesn’t it make sense to spend, say, $10,000 modifying three pistols?

I don’t run Hollywood, though.

I think Baldwin is mounting a publicity drive, just as he surely has in the past to compete for awards and roles. I think he is under the mistaken impression that telling the world he didn’t know the gun was loaded will influence the police and prosecutor, who are not likely to care.

I think our liberal press wants to protect Baldwin, because he’s a zealous anti-Second-Amendment agitator, so they’re only too happy to take dictation.

Lay people have the idea that it’s smart to say things in your own defense after you commit a questionable act, but it’s not, because lay people generally don’t know whether they’re guilty or not. It’s completely possible to craft an excuse which is really a confession. Baldwin should be quiet and stop airing his excuses. He’s not helping himself, except possibly in the court of public opinion, which does not have the power to acquit him or protect him from civil liability.

It’s true that his efforts might serve to taint the body of potential jurors, but if a criminal case goes to court, the prosecutor will make a good effort to find people who aren’t contaminated, and he and the judge will make sure the jurors have good instructions which render Baldwin’s blame-shifting useless.

It’s sad to see big-time organizations publishing legal opinions from lawyers who don’t shoot or who are way out on the left. One paper quoted Ron Kuby, a famous far-left defense attorney who practices in New York City and used to be the partner of William Kunstler. Kuby backed Baldwin up. What would you expect? If you asked a young, clear-witted Rudy Giuliani the same questions, you would probably get a different answer. If Donald Trump shot someone accidentally, you might get a different answer from Kuby.

It’s this simple: the last person to touch the gun is the killer.

The last person to touch the gun is the killer.

The armor may be guilty of something. The assistant director may be guilty of something. Their guilt has no mitigating effect on Baldwin’s culpability.

Every gun person knows the person holding the gun has 100% responsibility for everything that happens. He’s responsible for checking to see if it’s loaded. He’s responsible for keeping it pointed in a safe direction. He’s responsible for keeping his finger off the trigger until he has to shoot. If there is a safety, he’s responsible for engaging it. You can’t blame the person who handed the gun to you. That person may bear some responsibility for his negligence, but if you shoot someone, you and only you are guilty of manslaughter or murder, and you’re guilty of the full-blown charge. Not murder lite. There is no such thing.

Here is the New Mexico Supreme Court’s statement of the elements of involuntary manslaughter; I stole it from another site:

All that it is necessary to establish for involuntary manslaughter by the use of a loaded firearm is that a defendant had in his hands a gun which at some time had been loaded and that he handled it, whether drunk, drinking or sober, without due caution and circumspection and that death resulted.

It’s not a hard offense to commit.

Yesterday, I listed a bunch of factors that make things look bad for Baldwin. Today, there is a new one in the news: people on the set used the revolver for shooting practice before Baldwin killed his cinematographer.

What possible reason could anyone on a movie set have for possessing live ammunition? It’s like they were hoping someone would get shot. And using the same gun for shooting and playing make-believe in a room full of vulnerable people on the same day…it beggars comprehension.

The news says Baldwin was practicing drawing the gun. That means he drew the gun, pointed it at the victim, and pulled the trigger. The gun is said to be a single-action revolver. If that’s true, he also had to pull back the hammer, because otherwise, the gun wouldn’t have been fired. The hammer is the safety.

To sum up, he accepted a loaded gun and didn’t check it. He pointed it at two people who should not have been in front of him. He cocked it. He put his finger on the trigger. He fired.

You can blame the armorer and assistant director all day, but Baldwin did at least 5 negligent things after they were out of the picture. If he knew the gun had been fired on the set, his negligence is even worse. It means he knew the likelihood there was ammunition in it was higher.

It looks like this to me:

1. The people who used the gun for target practice were negligent because they brought ammunition to a movie set and put it in a gun that was supposed to be used as a prop.

2. The armorer was negligent because she put a loaded gun on a cart she knew would be used to hold it for Baldwin.

3. The assistant director was negligent because he didn’t check the gun when he held it, and because he announced that it was safe.

4. Baldwin was negligent, for reasons mentioned above.

It will be a remarkable thing if no one is charged with a crime. Everyone on the location was depending on the armorer, the assistant director, and Baldwin to protect their lives, and all three of them appear to have failed.

It takes less than two seconds to open a revolver’s cylinder and look for cartridges. A revolver’s barrel has no chamber where an additional round can hide, and it has no box magazine to push new rounds in front of the firing pin.

I don’t want to see anyone charged, but it’s still irritating to see the obvious spin. I do believe it’s spin. I think it’s contrived and dishonest. I don’t think it’s just happening on its own.

The world is extremely unfair, and the press’s treatment of Baldwin seems like a great visual aid to prove it. You can’t trust human beings as far as you can throw them, and Satan looks after people who serve him, at least temporarily.

I’ve been praying for Baldwin to avoid conviction, largely because he’s not a likable person, and I think it’s important for me to pray for people I don’t like. Doesn’t mean I think someone else is to blame for what he did.

The worst things that can happen to Baldwin on the criminal side are an 18-month sentence and a $5000 fine, which make New Mexico sound like a fortunate place to have a tragic accident. I’m assuming there will be no separate charge for shooting the director, but if there were, the punishment would be less severe. A conviction won’t put Baldwin away for good or destroy his golden years, so at least there is that.

The thoughts I’ve had regarding the case seem to be in line with what many actual criminal lawyers say, so I feel relieved. I don’t think I’ve made a complete fool of myself by opining outside of my former fields or choosing not to do in-depth research.

Time to shift gears.

Yesterday I had some interesting experiences. I spent a lot of time with my parrot Marvin. Sometimes strange bird instincts can make him aloof or crabby, but yesterday he was very affectionate.

He loves it when I go to his cage and make the toys move. He likes to entertain at home, and he seems to enjoy thinking I like his toys as much as he does. I swung them around and let him attack them and wrestle with them and so on. I’m making a point of doing this daily.

Throughout the day, he kept demanding attention, so I spent a lot of time in front of the TV, rubbing his feathers. He shook and coughed up half-digested food. That’s how African greys show they’re overcome with emotion.

I thought about what we were doing, and I realized how important it was, even though he was just a bird.

Years ago, God told me he had created the universe for love. This is clearly true, because Jesus said the most important commandments were to love God and to love other people as we love ourselves. Love, not work, raising families, or obeying rules, is supposed to be the center of our lives.

My wife is 8,000 miles away. I don’t have kids. Right now, the only living being I can show love to in person is a bird. I have to make the most of that. If you don’t demonstrate affection often enough, you can get rusty and blocked. You can also forget your purpose.

I was aware of these things already. Before my other bird, Maynard, died, I was trying to show both birds that I loved them. It was important to me that they feel it. It wasn’t enough to just clean cages and serve food. I had to spend a lot of time touching them.

I knew love was important before yesterday, but now I have a fresh appreciation, and I am grateful for it.

Thinking about love and how I have felt it pour from God during his visits, I thought about the state of the world. Churches don’t teach love. They talk about it and fill the air with empty gas, but they’re more excited about money, obedience, appearances, and control.

The world at large is full of hate now. Hate is the red horseman of the apocalypse. A powerful spirit is at work in the world, driving us to detest each other, and it’s working.

Yesterday I learned that Facebook drives hate on purpose. That surprised me. I knew Facebook was evil, but I didn’t know how deep it ran.

I found out that Facebook promotes irritating material more strongly than other content. Facebook has little buttons accompanying content, and you can click and say you liked something or that it made you mad. Facebook gives content points based on clicks, and the more points something gets, the more people Facebook shows it to.

It turns out an angry click produces five points, but a “like” click only generates one.

Someone wanted it that way. Someone at Facebook sat down and decided it should be company policy to provoke people. A machine didn’t do it.

Facebook has devoured the world. It must have addicts in the billions. Imagine the evil influence its point system is exerting.

Facebook is just one part of the apparatus. People are tearing at each other all over the web, and they’re foaming at the mouth at protests.

The protest mentality is vile. Henry David Thoreau, leftist hero, has not helped humanity; he has helped it on its way to self-destruction. He advocated civil disobedience, and it has become so popular, people think it’s always okay to protest and break the law. It’s not. If you absolutely have to do things like that, it should be for a good reason. Your hurt feelings over people using pronouns you don’t like is not a good reason. Your non-articulated rage at undefined, usually imaginary fascism is not a good reason.

We protest over everything now, and many of us have decided “protest” means “riot,” which is like saying, “Bactine” is just like “amputation.” Leftists now openly say, “Rioting works.” No, it doesn’t. Getting in the habit of rioting is like buying a rabid dog to attack your neighbors. Sooner or later, it will do the same thing to you. You can achieve a short-term goal through rioting, but you will end up causing more harm than good. Young people aren’t smart enough to understand this, so rioting will probably increase and consume the world soon.

As Revelation 6 predicts, we live in a world of hate, lack, and pestilence. It’s fatiguing.

A lot of new rapture-dream videos are appearing on Youtube and Tiktok. I’ll tell you what people say in their dreams when they think they’ve left the earth for good. They don’t say, “Oh, no! I’ll never finish barber school!” They don’t say, “Send me back! Give me one more chance!” They thank God. They’re delirious with joy. They don’t want to come back. I understand. I can’t wait to go.

The world is now full of temptation, more than ever. Provocation is temptation. Sexualizing society is temptation. International tension is temptation. Coronavirus is a gold mine of temptation. People are beating each other in the streets over it.

People love it when they think they’ve left Earth, because they think they’re finally done with temptation. One of the big draws of the Messianic age is that Satan and his imps will be locked away, so there will be no army of demons tempting people. Imagine what that will be like.

It will be like the difference between my life in Miami and my life in Ocala, multiplied manyfold.

Why are people forced to live in a world packed with evil? Because God wants us to be tempted. It sounds awful, and we know God himself doesn’t tempt, but it’s true. Everyone has to face temptation. Jesus saw to it that he faced it.

In order for there to be judgment and salvation, there has to be temptation. This is why Satan will be released at the end of the Messianic age. The Bible says so. People who are born during the Messianic age won’t know what temptation is until Satan is released from his septic tank.

Temptation is getting to be more than we can take, and that’s a clue to where we are on God’s timeline. God says the tribulation will be “the hour of temptation that shall come upon all the world.” Things aren’t going great now, but they will be much worse in the near future. Suffering will increase, and people will be told the mark of the beast is the only relief.

China is having a covid outbreak. That’s a big deal. I wondered why China had been spared, given the horrible things that are done in China, routinely. Now I think it may be because China supplies so many things. If China had fallen apart in 2020, the supply chain would probably have gone down almost completely, and there would have been greater suffering than God wanted to permit at that time. Maybe he held China’s outbreak back until he was ready. Maybe we’re about to find out what empty shelves really look like.

Personally, I would like to see the pimple burst sooner than later. I am ready to leave, and I am tired of seeing ignorant, base, deluded people receive power to libel and harm people like me. I don’t want to be here when they rule over us the way they came to rule in places like Cuba and Cambodia.

I saw something in passing the other day. I saw depression characterized as “catastrophizing.” The idea is that you tell yourself things are going to be much worse than they really will be, and you get depressed. I thought that was interesting. I don’t get depressed on behalf of myself, but I expect catastrophic things for the world as a whole. I’m cheerful and full of energy, and I think my future is inexpressibly bright, but at the same time, my hopes for the world are destroyed. It’s like being depressed by proxy, only without the down feelings.

Some texts call the angels “watchers.” They have to stand by and witness the true catastrophes human beings bring on themselves. I feel like a watcher.

When you’re depressed, your expectations of catastrophe are delusional. When you’re a prophecy-believing Christian, they’re much more solid.

One interesting thing about showing Marv unrestrained love is that it makes him vulnerable. If we were a little reserved, he wouldn’t have very high expectations. The more we let loose, the more he gives in and trusts me, and the more he will expect from me every day.

Sometimes we hold back from involving ourselves with others because we don’t think we can follow through. Life is uncertain, and one person may have many creatures who are attached to him and expect him to keep coming through. Nobody wants to adopt a puppy a month before starting military service. No one with cancer would want to adopt a desperate orphan. Once you engage with someone, you have to accept the commitment. It’s intimidating.

I have wondered if I made my pets love me too much. I tried to do the right thing by engaging with them, but maybe I made them miss me more when I wasn’t available. Birds pull their feathers out when they’re lonely, and Maynard sometimes pulled his feathers more when I was giving him more attention.

I try to make my wife feel as loved as possible, and I won’t stop out of fear, but I’m aware that the more passionately we love each other, the more pain we will suffer if one of us is taken away.

One of the nice things about heaven is that no one will die or move away. Commitment in heaven won’t put anyone at risk.

I watched a couple of movies this week. They are part of a series. They’re about a divorced police chief.

In the first movie, he moves across the country, and his old dog starts refusing food. Soon, the cop finds out the dog is sick and has to be put down. In other installments, there are other dogs.

We’re supposed to feel sorry for the cop because he’s a stand-up guy who cares about others and goes above and beyond the call of duty to help them. We’re supposed to feel bad when his dog dies. He puts off euthanasia because he can’t face it. His love for the dog is too intense.

The thing that made me marvel is this: throughout the series, he barely touches the dogs. You never see moments of shared happiness or affection. What dog lover keeps a distance? That’s for cat people. Cat owners get cats in order to avoid intimacy. Dogs are effusive with their love.

I enjoyed the movies a lot, but I don’t see why the protagonist was so reserved. It makes no sense to me. It was a strange way to portray love. The dogs were miserable. The owner was miserable. They lived in the same house. There was nothing to prevent them from being close, but the man sat in a chair, and the dog lay on the floor across the room, and that was about it.

I guess I’m rambling, but I look forward to heaven. This place is getting disgusting.

MORE

It’s amazing how no one listens to me. A story just came out, and here is what the DA looking at Baldwin’s case says:

Ms. Carmack-Altwies took issue with descriptions of the firearm used in the incident as “prop-gun,” saying that the terminology, which is used in some of the court documents related to the case, could give the misleading impression that it was not a real gun.

“It was a legit gun,” she said, without naming specifically what kind of firearm was used. “It was an antique-era appropriate gun.”

Sound familiar? Scroll up.

Not good new for Baldwin, but nothing is settled yet.

Looks Like it Will be Beans and Rice Till Friday

I realized I had to start eating my old survival supplies in order to keep them from going to waste, so yesterday, I made myself a huge pot of red beans and rice. Let it suffice to say I am extremely pleased.

I took a chance on what is purportedly an Emeril recipe. I have nearly no faith in Emeril, for a number of reasons, but he ran the Commander’s Palace, so Cajun food shouldn’t be a challenge for him. After I got into the process, I realized the recipe was actually secondhand. Some lady who probably eats margarine posted it on the Internet, and she said she had made changes. When a woman makes a change in a recipe containing pork, it’s generally an indication that regurgitation is imminent. They’ll substitute turkey for pork or canola for butter. I decided to take a free hand, and things worked out great.

I had two pounds of dried beans to get rid of, so I had to make a big batch. When it was over, 24 ounces of andouille and two ham hocks were in the pot along with the beans. The main thing I did to make it work was adding dry white wine. It’s hard to think of a good excuse for preparing poultry or pork without wine.

My beans are maybe two years old. I forgot to put the buy date on the bag. As a result, it took hours for them to get soft. I had to have a PBJ for dinner, but I made up for it this morning with a big serving of Cajun joy.

You don’t have to spend a lot of money to make good food. Well, actually, you do, during the Biden catastrophe. But you don’t have to spend a lot compared to what you would spend on things like steak and seafood, which used to be expensive but are now downright precious. If you can fix beans a few different ways, you can get good nutrition without being hammered too badly by Uncle Joe’s empty shelves.

I would say it’s best to use one whole cup of dry white wine per pound of dried beans. That sounds like a lot, but it seems like beans blunt the wine’s effect on the pork.

I should have a relatively pleasant couple of months after true famine sets in, getting creative with my prepper cache. After that, unless I’m raptured, it will be time to learn how to eat acorns.

In other news, the Alec Baldwin story continues to get more interesting.

I now think what happened to Baldwin was supernatural. I think God did him a favor by allowing him to be humbled so he can examine himself and receive salvation. It would be hard for random chance to explain all the bad things that happened to Baldwin simultaneously. Let’s see if I can list them all without checking the web.

1. He was producing the movie, so he has more responsibility than an actor would ordinarily have.

2. Hypocritically, for a self-righteous, vitriolic leftist, he hired non-union workers to fill spots vacated by disgruntled union members. This guarantees that many people who worked on the movie will try to make him look as bad as possible.

3. Prior to the shooting, there had been several gun mishaps, and there had been protests.

4. Instead of having the movie’s trained armorer declare the gun safe and hand it to him, he let an assistant director do it.

5. The assistant director has been subject to a lot of complaints. He is said to have expressed resentment over having to hold meetings about gun safety, and he is also said to have done a very poor job at those meetings. On top of all this, men and women who have worked with him have complained about inappropriate touching, which makes Baldwin look irresponsible for hiring him.

6. Forget the universal gun safety rules he disobeyed; he ignored a rule specific to moviemaking. You never point a live gun at a human being on a movie set. There are protocols. Baldwin knows about them. He violated one.

7. The person he killed has a husband and parents, so Baldwin has set himself up for wrongful death litigation from multiple plaintiffs, and prosecutors are sensitive to plaintiffs’ goading.

8. Baldwin has a history of condemning people who have shot others. Regarding a California police officer who shot a man who attacked him and grabbed at his gun belt, Baldwin said, “I wonder how it feels to wrongfully kill someone.”

Let me add that the movie Baldwin was making was to be about a boy sentenced to death for an accidental killing. That can’t be a coincidence.

At least one New Mexico criminal attorney has confirmed that Baldwin may be on the hook for a homicide charge. Under New Mexico law, it’s possible. That pretty much ends the debate over whether he can be charged. Now, the question is what the police and prosecutors will choose to do. A leftist prosecutor committed perjury to indict George Zimmerman, and a leftist prosecutor refused to charge the people who tried to murder Kyle Rittenhouse. A prosecutor has been indicted for failing to properly pursue charges in the Ahmed Arberry case. Prosecutors aren’t vending machines. They are as biased as anyone.

It would be bad enough for Baldwin if he had taken the gun directly from the armorer, on a peaceful set with no prior accidents, and killed a woman. It would be more typical of workplace accidents. His case is exceptional, though. Accidental shootings don’t usually have mountains of additional circumstances that make things worse for those at fault.

The only thing that could be worse for him would be if the prosecutor had voted for Trump.

Baldwin has not behaved well since the accident. He went to Twitter and posted a link to a story that said he had been told the gun was safe before he handled it. It was a desperation move. I’m sure his attorney didn’t advise it. He’s not taking responsibility. He’s throwing other people under the bus. Here’s what he should be saying: nothing. Maybe, “I am devastated by the accidental shooting which occurred on my set today.” Anything beyond that looks like denial of guilt and lack of remorse.

I’m not saying he should admit he’s responsible. Not until after jeopardy has passed. But he shouldn’t feed the public BS.

It doesn’t matter whether he was told the gun was safe. He was supposed to check it personally, regardless of who looked at it before he did. Even if you swallow his invalid argument at first, you have to admit that it was negligent to listen to an assistant director when there was an armorer on the set, especially after several other mishaps.

I’m not trying to condemn him. I just know how lay people think, and I know that if I don’t present things forcefully, people may come back in my comments and play amateur attorney, defending Baldwin with very poor arguments lawyers have already rejected.

I’m not writing about this story to pick on Baldwin, but to connect it to my own experiences. Last night I woke up and started confessing to God and asking for help to be a better Christian. I thought about all the bad things I had done, said, and felt. I thought about two things God had told me.

1. The concealment of a sin is worse than the sin itself.

2. An excuse is a lie.

I’ve done what Baldwin is doing, and worse. I could never begin to recall all the excuses I’ve made for myself.

I started thinking about Adam and Eve. Satan tempted Eve, Eve sinned, Eve tempted Adam, Adam sinned, God accused Adam and Eve, Adam blamed God and Eve, and Eve blamed Satan.

Then all the descendants of Adam and Eve were cursed, and we fight those curses to this very day.

God has also told me this: everything you bury, you also plant.

The sins and lies of Adam and Eve became the seeds that would eventually result in things like damnation and the tribulation, not to mention every evil man has ever experienced. Eve’s sin was a very small seed, but it turned into a tree that covered the world. No wonder God cursed women for what she did. No wonder he cursed Adam PRIMARILY for listening to the voice of his wife.

Until last night, I had never thought about this: Satan didn’t tempt Adam. Eve did. Adam wasn’t the first person to sin. Eve was. Adam didn’t blow it until he abandoned his role as leader and chose to be a feminist. Feminists like to say the world would be a better place if women ran everything, but the only time a woman ran the world, she led mankind into destruction.

Now we live in a time in which masculinity is considered toxic and we are told to let women and even children lead. No wonder the world is disintegrating. We’re living the curse of Isaiah 3. We’ll really feel the pain when Kamala Harris takes over for Biden. Female leadership leads to curses, period. It’s not what God commanded, and there are consequences.

Overwhelmingly, women are the ones who lead us into idolatry. Witchcraft, fortune-telling, astrology, crystals, yoga…you will probably never hear a woman say, “I was a Christian, but my husband convinced me to try Buddhism.” It’s almost always the other way around. There is a reason God requires men to lead.

Eve and Adam should not have sinned, but once they had, they should have confessed. God already knew everything. Baldwin shouldn’t be on Twitter showing he is not willing to be honest.

I don’t want him to be prosecuted. I would rather see him get away with it, just as you and I have gotten away with things. Putting him in prison for a mistake doesn’t seem to serve a valid purpose. But he should not blame others for what he did.

I’m not that concerned about his civil liability, since whatever he ends up paying will not be a significant percentage of his wealth. He’s probably worth several dozen million dollars, so whatever he pays probably won’t affect his lifestyle or those of his children.

I expect the assistant director to get obliterated. He’s a #MeToo magnet, he appears to have done the armorer’s job for her without justification, and he’s lower on the food chain than Baldwin, who will have moneyed interests pushing for his exoneration. The armorer might be okay if she can say she did everything right and the assistant director prevented her from doing her job. She will still have to explain the other accidents, though.

The assistant director, David Halls, has deleted his Twitter account, so we can’t see if he ever said unfortunate things about the use of firearms.

Personally, if I were working on a movie that had had three on-set gun accidents, I would quit. One is inexcusable, and two prove the moviemakers can’t be trusted. After a third, the insurers should cancel the production.

As for Biden and Harris, I see socialist Saturday Night Live has taken the gloves off. Last night, they did a sketch in which 2021 Biden talked to his 2013 self. They made fun of his unpopularity, his false teeth, and even his dementia. When Saturday Night Live turns on a leftist president, there isn’t much hope of redemption or spin. Maybe next time, they’ll do the right thing and hit him for the terrible problems he’s causing. They didn’t mention the Biden energy crisis, the Biden shipping crunch, or his enormous mandate lie. Things will probably be a lot worse in 2022, and Biden isn’t doing anything to prevent it. He’s doubling down on pathological policy.

Biden is turning out to be a replay of Carter, except that Carter still had his faculties. It’s very bad when dementia compounds incompetence and corruption.

Carter is said to have had a nervous breakdown in office. Older readers will remember. He knew the ship was sinking, and he couldn’t fix it. He was temporarily disabled by hemorrhoids, and that didn’t help his image. He knew the public despised him. There was no light at the end of the tunnel because he just wasn’t good at what he did. He has a gargantuan ego, but it wasn’t a thick enough rampart to protect him from crumbling. Biden is a monumental egotist, too. Will his baseless pride allow him to continue confronting the world with mock confidence, or will he fold up one morning and refuse to leave the bed?

I know how dementia and arrogance work together. Arrogant people who know they’re demented don’t admit it. A proud dementia patient can stand in his own excrement and insist you’re the one with the problem. Maybe Biden will go out clawing and accusing.

At his most recent town hall, Biden clenched his fists and held them in front of him for around 20 seconds while receiving a question. It was very odd. Internet commenters have pointed out that dementia patients are known to make this gesture. It indicates anxiety or confusion. I wonder if that’s what’s happening with the president. He also appears to be developing what is known as a “magnetic gait,” which is a dementia symptom in which the feet slide along the floor instead of being lifted.

I don’t know how the left’s lie machine will cope with Biden’s final implosion. My best guess is that they’ll pretend it’s something other than dementia until he has been out of office a long time. “Our overworked, beleaguered president has succumbed to exhaustion.” Maybe they’ll hypothesize that his aneurysm problems have led to delayed issues. They’ll never admit the obvious. They’ll never say they voted for a man they knew was senile because they hated Trump more than they cared about a strong America.

My friend Mike has a golf buddy who used to play with a Trump hater. The Trump hater told the buddy he didn’t care if America was destroyed as long as Trump wasn’t president. I think that attitude is common.
