Where are the Prayer Campaigns?

I’m still trying to figure coronavirus out.

Case figures rose dramatically when the virus first got a foothold in the US. I said I thought the numbers would rise exponentially and then peak, and that’s what they did. I didn’t think there would be a second wave, because epidemics generally don’t work that way. I never saw a logical explanation why a second wave should occur. The disease was already here, it had hit whoever it could hit easily, and then it had declined. It wasn’t like a new group of susceptible people was going to materialize out of nowhere, and our behavior wasn’t likely to change much and produce new cases, so where would a second wave come from?

Now the figures are going up again.

I could just say I was wrong, but these are strange times. Nothing is what it seems. There are two camps in America: the anti-Trump, pro-panic camp, and the pro-Trump, anti-panic camp. The first camp has lied to us over and over in order to make Trump look bad, hoping to drive him out of the Oval Office. You would have to be a fool to take anything they say at face value, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be right about the second wave.

I think some medical professionals are calling it the continuation of the first wave. I have not seen anyone explain the difference between a second wave and the continuation of the first wave, however. I don’t know how they would look different.

Testing has skyrocketed, and the case figures have also skyrocketed. President Trump says the increase in the figures is the result of the increase in testing. That actually makes sense, because these things happened at the same time, and it would be impossible to increase testing without detecting more cases. On the other hand, it’s possible to have a genuine increase in the infection rate along with a fake bump caused by increased testing.

President Trump has ample reason to push the claim that the new numbers are the product of testing, not increased contagion, and as much as I love Donald Trump, I’m aware that he has a habit of talking first and checking the facts later.

Who is right? The huge percentage of America that has been turned into a coronavirus-hysteria propaganda machine, or the president who exaggerates his successes?

I see news articles about the current situation, and they’re full of claims that look deceptive to me. One article says 81% of Florida ICU beds are full. Here’s the obvious question: what percentage are normally full? I’ve been in ICU’s in normal times, and they have generally had few empty beds. Even if the epidemic is getting worse, only a tiny percentage of Americans have become ill, and even fewer have had to go to intensive care. The numbers still resemble flu numbers. So how can I believe Florida ICU’s are jammed up? It seems to me that the claim is meaningless and intentionally misleading.

It appeared in an article which took a negative and condescending tone toward President Trump, so that also reduces its credibility.

Many people think the disease has been here much longer than doctors are telling us. It was active in China in the fall, and Chinese people were flying to America during that time. If coronavirus is as contagious as the pro-hysteria people say, then Americans had to begin contracting it no later than November. If that’s so, then the disease is a lot more common than we used to think, and increased testing, especially when it reaches people with light symptoms, should generate a lot more positives than we’re used to.

The CDC is now saying 20 million people in the US may have been infected. How are we supposed to believe anything they say? I think they’re right, but they keep changing their minds.

A month or so ago, I could not get tested in Florida. I had no symptoms, and they didn’t allow asymptomatic people to be tested. As of a few weeks back, that changed. They decided to allow everyone to be tested. What would the natural result be? People who weren’t sick, yet who were still curious, would go in for testing, and you could see a higher positive rate. That’s what we’re seeing. The tests only caught active cases, so there was no point in me going.

Florida just had a huge case-number jump. Thousands in one day. They told us the numbers went up, but no one seems to be asking whether anything else happened the same week. Were new testing methods put in place? Did waves of new test kits arrive more or less simultaneously in many areas, allowing more testing? What is the rate of false positives? We aren’t being told.

Anti-Trumpers are blaming the removal of the lockdowns, which was supposed to occur regardless of what Trump wanted, and the implication is that we would have remained locked down but for the GOP. That’s absurd.The lockdowns were always intended to be temporary measures that would slow the epidemic without getting rid of it. This is what doctors, not Donald Trump, have told us. Let’s play the game anyway, though. If getting rid of lockdowns made infections jump, why didn’t weeks of protesting without social distancing have the same effect? Why did New York find that most new infections took place among people who were locked down? Why is it that confined populations, who should be immune, still make up something like half of the numbers?

One thing does surprise me. I’m surprised the warm weather didn’t bring us a sharp drop in cases. UV rays kill coronaviruses nearly instantly, and warm weather gets people out of confinement. We did see infections plummet in the spring, but even if the new numbers are grossly misleading, the bug is still here.

Covid is still hitting Hispanics, blacks, and American Indians much harder than everyone else. Can that have any conceivable cause that isn’t supernatural? They do what white people do, more or less. What natural reason is there for them to get sick more often?

The more I look at the epidemic, the more I feel that it hits leftists harder. It seems like a Biblical plague, because it appears to be targeted. Even in my county, where minorities are not all that abundant, they make up a very disproportionate number of the cases, and minorities other than Asians lean left.

I’m not sure what’s happening, but I don’t trust the hysterics at all. They have lied to us consistently for too long.

I bought my first masks today. That’s not completely true. I once had to buy a cheap mask in order to get into a gun show, and some friends of mine gave me a flowered mask that might look good on Caitlyn Jenner. Today I got some real cloth masks at Target. You can buy them these days. The hoarders stopped cleaning them out.

I didn’t buy them out of concern for myself. A cloth mask is just about worthless for self-protection. I bought them in case I get sick. They would provide a little protection for people around me. I think I had covid in the winter, but I may be wrong, and I could still get it. Maybe the epidemic really is getting worse in Florida. Might as well spend 10 bucks on preparation.

Almost no one seems to be promoting self-humbling, repentance, and prayer as remedies for coronavirus, shortages, and violence. It’s very sad. Our problems are obviously caused by rebellion and pride, but no one seems to know it.

America is a former Christian country, and there are still many Christians here. We should know that when a nation has problems like ours, it means something has messed up our relationship with God. In the Bible, when Israel had problems, there was always a reason involving God. They would fast and pray and ask God what was wrong, or a prophet would show up and tell them, and then they were able to alter their behavior and regain favor. That’s not happening in America right now. We act as if we’ve never seen the Bible.

Where are the preachers calling for a nationwide week of prayer and fasting? There are a few dimly heard appeals out there, but that’s about it. Shouldn’t prayer and humbling be our first responses, every single time? How can we not know that?

I don’t see how we can get past our mini-plagues without doing the right thing. Because we won’t admit fault and seek God’s face, I expect us to get worse and worse.

More Data for the Gitmo Admissions Committee

I’m white, I’m male, I’m conservative, I’m a far-out Christian who speaks in tongues every day, and I shoot as a hobby. My blog has been banned secretly by the Department of Defense, as a hate site, for reasons that have never been revealed to me. What more can I add to my resume?

How about long-range rifle shooting? That ought to move me up a few spaces on several secret lists.

I’m getting ready for my first precision rifle shooting course. Right now, I’m more of a spray-and-giggle shooter. I take semiauto .22’s out to the berm and blast away at steel targets with humorous shapes. The course will have me shooting match .308 ammunition at 1000 yards.

I don’t know what more I can do to attract persecution. I should just send Joe Biden a letter requesting he have me disappeared the day after the inauguration. Assuming he gets inaugurated, which I don’t. I think leftists are scaring normal people to the polls.

If he gets elected, and he’s too busy to disappear me the day after the inauguration, Kamala Harris can always do it two days later, after she assumes command due to Biden’s dementia, which the press will suddenly discover.

You have to wonder how military people, who tend to be conservative, are going to feel when things go nuts and leftist regimes require them to guard conservative and Christian dissidents at Guantanamo and black sites while relatively liberal Deep State intelligence people torment them. They’ll probably end up guarding many of their friends.

I never really thought about the political contrast between the CIA and the military before.

The Deep State and its hostility toward conservatives are absolutely real. The more time passes, the more things happen that confirm that right-wing conspiracy nuts aren’t nuts at all. Not about the important things.

I am scheduled to take a class soon, and I’m trying to figure out what I need. The people who teach the class are not great at communication, and I have never been to a PRS (Precision Rifle Shooting) class before.

I had to get a couple of shooting bags. I’ve used a Rock Jr. rest and various bipods, but I have never shot off a bag. I chose the Armageddon Gear Game Changer front bag and the Armageddon Gear X-Wing rear bag. They arrived today. I put them on the dinner table and plopped the LR-308 onto them. Very nice. I see what I’ve been missing. They’re much more cooperative than rests and bipods, and the scope seems much more stable.

I realized my fancy tactical sling won’t work with the LR-308 until I get the right swivel for the handguard. I’ll probably have to cannibalize a sling from another gun, along with one swivel.

Today I bought a Gore-Tex rain jacket. It’s surprisingly hard to do this here. Gander Outdoors is gone, Dick’s Sporting Goods (spit) has nothing useful, Rural King doesn’t have Gore-Tex, and I didn’t even try the mall because it looked so bad the last time I was there. I found a nice jacket at Bass Pro, and it comes with a tiny bag. You can wad the entire jacket up and stuff it in the bag, and it takes up about as much room as a foot-long sub.

I like Gore-Tex. It’s likely to rain at the class, and it will definitely be hot, so I want something that keeps rain out and lets water vapor out. I don’t think evaporation will be all that helpful, but it has to be somewhat better than wearing a plastic jacket that doesn’t even try to release vapor.

I’m supposed to bring some tools. When they suggested that, they poked the wrong bear. I’m trying to whittle my choices down to things that will fit in one toolbox. I guess a cleaning kit, some Allen wrenches, and a can of One Shot should get me where I need to be.

They don’t provide lunch, and the food situation in the area is, well, there isn’t any. I have to figure out how to provide lunch for myself two days in a row.

I guess I should take a notebook. A real one, not a PC.

I looked at shooting glasses today at Bass Pro. The ones I have are cheap yellow plastic. I think they cost $14.99 at Gander Outdoors. I thought I should get something better. Bass Pro had Oakleys for $256. They looked exactly the same as the $14.99 ones. Am I missing something here? I decided I didn’t need new ones.

I want to take the bags out and pop off a few .223 rounds. The other day I shot 1 MOA at 50 yards using an uncooperative bipod and a plastic table with a railroad spring sitting on it to take out the bounce. If I can do that with terrible equipment, one would think I could shoot 1 MOA consistently with a good set of bags, even using the plastic table.

Maybe I’m going to be a good long-range shooter. That would be nice.

When I first started shooting at 100 yards with scopes, I refused to take my left hand off the guns. I was stubborn. I felt like a shooter who didn’t hold the gun with both hands was so uninvolved, it was almost unnecessary for him to be there.

I used bad ammunition, mostly, and I got something like 3 MOA. I now think most of the error was due to my efforts to delude myself. The more human being touches a gun, the worse it shoots at long distances. It’s just a fact. To shoot as well as possible, you should mount your gun in a vise and pull the trigger remotely. I think I wasted a ton of ammo trying to disprove something everyone else already knew.

This time, I’ll have a great trigger, match ammunition, a good rest, and good technique. Maybe things will go better.

Ammunition confuses me. On the one hand, people talk about the importance of accurate ammunition, and they say you need handloads to do well. On the other, I’ve got cheap ammunition in at least two calibers that will shoot 1 MOA, guaranteed. How can I reconcile these things? I’m starting to think I shouldn’t listen to people who criticize ammunition I haven’t tried. If you look on the web, you will see people shooting 1.5 MOA with Wolf, which is some of the cheapest ammunition available. If they can do that, maybe ammunition usually isn’t that critical.

Most people can’t shoot. This is a fact of life, and it’s probably caused by stubbornness and lack of training (unless I’m the only one those things affect). It doesn’t prevent them from shooting badly and then going to Internet forums and saying this or that ammunition is accurate or inaccurate. If you shoot 5 MOA on your best day, you’re not qualified to evaluate ammunition or anything else. I’m sure there are people out there telling others certain guns or ammunition are accurate when they really mean they don’t shoot them any worse than other things they shoot badly.

There’s a Youtube guy who does wonderful videos in which he loads .223 ammunition and does systematic experiments to see what shoots best. He has used many powders and bullets, and he bought a high-end barrel. His good loads shoot maybe 0.75 MOA, and his bad ones probably run 3 MOA. I have a bunch of cheap Fiocchi ammo which, I’m pretty sure, will do 1 MOA at 100 yards out of my non-precision AR-15 with the barrel it came with out of the factory. I have seen a guy shoot very tight groups at 200 yards with the same stuff. If Fiocchi will do all that for fifty cents per round, how can the Youtube guy not be wasting his time?

It’s puzzling, but it sure looks like 1) factory barrels on second-tier AR-15’s can shoot 1 MOA, so you don’t need to upgrade unless you’re extremely picky, and 2) there is no point at all in reloading .223.

If I can shoot 1 MOA, then I have the potential to put a bullet in a 3″ circle at 300 yards. That means I should be able to hit prairie dogs three football fields away, reliably. That’s awfully good accuracy, in a world where 4 MOA was very respectable 40 years ago. Will my life really change if I find a load that reduces the circle to 2″?

It’s great to think I can shoot very precisely with cheap ammunition, but it’s a bummer to think I may not be able to justify making my own .223 or .308 rounds. Or .204 Ruger. Dang it.

I found a brand of top-quality .223 rounds with temperature-stabilized powder (not a gimmick) and 55-grain polymer-tip bullets. This is essentially the same thing as a very popular defensive product called Hornady TAP Urban, which is considered a law enforcement product. The stuff I found is packaged in little plastic packets that should preserve it forever, and if I zero my scope at a certain temperature, I can shoot it at a different temperature with nearly no change in the point of impact.

The Hornady stuff, which has been discontinued, sells for 75 cents per round. The stuff I bought costs about 50 cents, and it’s better. I will never have any reason to buy Hornady, and it will be hard to justify buying .223 dies just to make 55-grain ammunition.

Why did I buy defensive .223 ammunition, if I don’t plan to use my rifle defensively? Because I didn’t get the ammunition for use against people. I got it for targets and coons and so on. It can also be used for pigs and deer. But you never know what the future will bring. Maybe I won’t use it, but I’ll end up giving it to someone who needs defensive ammo.

I don’t know whether the gun I’ll be shooting in class will hold 1 MOA, but I’ll bet it will. Other people have done it with this model. It will be funny if it works. I have no doubt at all that it will at least approach 1 MOA. If I can’t make it work, I can get a new barrel for $300.

I guess I should invest in a lunchbox. I don’t know what else I should take with me.

Next time I take a course like this, I’ll have a different rifle in a friendlier caliber that won’t beat me up. That will be nice. I’m not really sure what purpose a .308 serves in 2020.

Decide What You Stand On

For some time, God has been teaching me about the problems white people are having. He has shown me that we lost favor because we turned away from him. I’ve been thinking a lot about the problems associated with this change, but today he helped me see the opportunity it presents.

It’s natural to be concerned when you find that the group to which you belong is besieged and disempowered. People like me look around at 2020 America, not to mention the world, and we see we are standing on an island which is getting smaller and smaller as the water rises to drown us. Anti-white racism is red-hot, and it’s becoming white-hot. It’s not going away, and the people who are against us sincerely want to inflict terrible pain on us, as well as humiliation. They’re going to get what they want. Favor has left us.

While it’s reasonable and normal to be concerned about our future as a group, those of us who know God should be happy about the opportunity we now have. We can focus on building a holy family which destroys the barriers of race and nationality and includes brothers and sisters from every background.

Yesterday I got around to fixing my new audio Bible. I had been listening to a Zondervan Bible, but it wasn’t that great. The man who did most of the talking mispronounced things. It was clear Zondervan hadn’t spent much time preparing him. I downloaded a different dramatized KJV, and I turned it into MP3 files, but when I was done, my televisions couldn’t use the files. I had 1189 files in one folder, and the televisions refused to index them. I had to consolidate them into 66 files or one per book.

This morning, I got up and turned on the bedroom TV. Somehow I found myself listening to Joshua. I went to the living room to make breakfast. I turned on the living room TV, and I played Joshua in that room. I didn’t really think about the choice.

I was already prepared for Joshua, because earlier, during prayer, God had give me this word: “I am victorious because of you.”

The book of Joshua is a story of dominance and conquest. Moses led the Hebrews into Israel, but he didn’t enter the country. He died to the east of Israel, and his body was left there. God put Joshua in charge, and he told him to subdue the inhabitants of the land. Israel had been given to Abraham and his descendants, but others were squatting there, and they were idolaters.

The Hebrews fought people God told them to fight, when God told them to fight them. When they were in good standing with God, they defeated their enemies easily. When they displeased God, they were routed.

The Hebrews attacked a city called Ai. Scouts told Joshua it wasn’t necessary to send a big force. They said a few thousand would do, because Ai didn’t have many warriors. The Hebrews sent several thousand soldiers, and the inhabitants of Ai defeated them.

When Joshua complained to God, failing to ask what the Hebrews had done wrong, taking a victim attitude, God told him to get up and asked him why he was lying on his face. God said someone in the Hebrew ranks had taken something cursed in the conquest of Jericho. God had told the Hebrews not to take any treasure, but a man named Achan stole a Babylonian garment and some silver and gold and hid them in his tent.

God singled Achan out as the culprit, and the Hebrews stoned him and his family. They burned their bodies. Then the curse was lifted.

I don’t know what the significance of the gold, silver, and clothing was. Maybe the clothing was associated with demon worship, and its presence would have threatened the Hebrews with the spread of idolatry. Maybe there were pagan images on the silver and gold.

Once the transgression was dealt with, God resumed giving the Hebrews victory.

After the Jews rejected their Messiah, white gentiles were chiefly responsible for spreading the gospel. God gave them favor over peoples who worshiped evil spirits. They ended up ruling every major land mass except for South America, and even there, the dominant group was European, if not quite white. No one could stand before white people. They turned a huge part of the globe’s surface into Christian territory, and God was with them in spite of the fact that they, like the peoples they subdued, did considerable evil. The heathens were a good deal more cruel and bloodthirsty than whites were; no one seems to want to talk about that.

When whites in Europe rejected God, Europe’s favor diminished. The British were great missionaries, but England walked away from God, and the British empire was stripped away. People they used to dominate drove them out.

Here in America, too many whites have chosen godlessness. Now whites are off their pedestal, mobbed by groups to whom they thought they were superior. They credited themselves with their success, claiming they were smarter, harder-working, and so on, but in reality, brains and work will get you nowhere without God. Asians are smart, and they work harder than westerners, but Asia was inferior to the west until very recently.

Now the age of the gentiles, in which white people spread the gospel, is ending or over, and white people have lost their dominance. Those conservatives who are proud and godless think prepping and buying rifles and voting Republican will save them. They’re completely wrong. You can’t replace favor with work. One of the main purposes of favor is to show you how ineffective your plans and works are.

If you’re a white American, you can’t keep hanging onto the shield and weapons that seemed to work for you in the past, because they won’t work unless God is backing you up. The security you used to have because you belonged to the herd is disappearing.

The good news is that without the illusion of racial superiority, white people, and the rest of us, have an opportunity to find favor by aligning ourselves with the family of God.

We can’t turn the clock back and regain dominance as a group, and it’s not a desirable goal anyway. Our segment of the population is vulnerable as a whole, and that won’t change. What we, and everyone else, can do is to find favor as individuals. We should have been doing this in the first place.

If God favors you, it doesn’t matter which ethnic group you belong to. You will be dominant. I don’t mean you’ll be able to push people around. I mean you will be victorious when you’re attacked. You will have a lot of insulation from hostility. You will have provision when godless preppers and militia nuts lack.

One of the best things about seeking favor as an individual is that your status will transcend race and nationality. You may still be targeted by BLM and Antifa destroyers, but you will be united with Holy-Spirit-led people of every type. When you’re with family, race and nationality won’t matter. The anxiety and wariness will be gone. They will be replaced by love and trust.

There is no such thing as racial unity on a nationwide scale. We try to implement it, and we fail. We got rid of segregation laws, and minorities responded by segregating themselves. If you want to find someone who hates interracial marriage, go to any black or Asian neighborhood. Most white people don’t care about it. White people changed, but the rest of America wants no part of it. They want black colleges and Muslim neighborhoods with sharia patrols. They want La Raza and Mecha. They want non-white gangs. Young Asians excoriate girls who marry whites, saying they suffer from self-hate. They say whites who marry Asians have a fetish. Most non-white Americans don’t want unity, and many whites agree.

We can’t have unity as a nation, but you can have unity with the brothers and sisters God has given you, regardless of what they look like. Together, you can step back from the fray and watch the unenlightened tear at each other. You don’t have to let BLM and Antifa screen your friends.

The Bible is full of promises of help and favor, but somehow, Christians have decided they’re not intended seriously. We have cultivated the notion that a really good Christian lives on a sidewalk in a box and preaches love and kindness while people spit on him. The Bible says God gives us victory, healing, joy, peace, strong families, and prosperity. It says our enemies will flee before us. Who is right? God, or the people who preach defeat?

Favor is real, and the stronger the destroyers get, presumably, the more favor God will be willing to give his children. And surely he will want to unite Christians of different backgrounds in order to shame the destroyers and give the lie to their racist nonsense.

There is no black student union in heaven. There is no Italian social club. There are no whites-only golf courses. There is no yeshiva that doesn’t accept gentiles. Jeremiah Wright won’t have a black church in heaven. He’s probably going to hell. Segregating people according to the flesh is a Satanic notion. God unites people according to the Spirit, regardless of what their flesh looks like.

Man’s protection is falling away from me and every other white, male, Southern, Christian, Jewish, or heterosexual American. That’s fine, as long as I move into God’s protection. Man required me to compromise and tug the forelock. God gives favor along with dignity, with no self-betrayal.

People who take sides according to the flesh are going to get nowhere. The word says God will release a horseman to take peace from the earth, and he may already be here. You can’t fight that with earthly weapons. The only real peace is among God’s children.

If Joshua and Caleb throve while surrounded by enemies in superior numbers, so can you. God says he prepares a table before us in the presence of our enemies. He struck the gay rapists of Sodom blind so they couldn’t find the door to Lot’s house. When the rain lifted the Ark, not one pagan was able to break in.

Too many people are taking the wrong messages away from the successes of the destroyers. They’re becoming more carnal, not less. They are following the destroyers instead of standing up as leaders.

I’m glad God showed me the positive side of what has happened to America. I have felt a lot of grief over the spectacle, but in Christian thought, birth comes after death. I should have considered that. Most people will fail and be destroyed, but eventually, the people who are spared and delivered will make me and other Christians forget all about the lost and the pain they caused us.

Joss Whedon Should Write Them a new Narrative

On Saturday night, in a section of Minneapolis, multiple shooters opened fire, wounding 11 people and killing one. The City Council has called for the disbanding of the police department, yet somehow, the police have been called to investigate the shooting. Multiple witnesses were present, and they talked to the press. Oddly, the articles about the shooting do not provide physical descriptions of the shooters.

The dead man is black. There are black people in the few photos that have been published. If the shooters are white, it’s quite remarkable that the press hasn’t told us. Journalists are pretty conscientious about promoting stories of white-on-black violence, rare though it is.

In Seattle, in the criminal-occupied zone at least one Youtuber is referring to as “Soymalia” and “Wokeanda,” a 19-year-old man has been shot to death. We have seen armed criminals roaming the streets, functioning as the official security team for the area. Haven’t seen law-abiding citizens doing that. In fact, it’s impossible to see a law-abiding citizen doing that, because open carry is illegal in Washington.

Wonder who shot the young man.

For a while, I’ve been pointing out that the Seattle goon squad is now the area’s police. So this shooting appears to have been police brutality. Committed in a zone where the occupants had convinced themselves freedom from police was the solution to the brutality problem. And they called the real police when the shooting took place.

Does anyone see anything wrong with this picture?

You throw your police force out because of occasional occurrences of police brutality. Then you declare your area police-free. Then you form your own police squad which has no oversight or training, and it commits a murder right off the bat, in addition to other acts of violence that have been filmed. Then you ask the real cops to come in and investigate.

I guess it’s better than holding a lynching, hypocrisy notwithstanding.

Here’s how much sympathy I feel for the residents of Minneapolis and Seattle: none whatsoever.

Is that a sound Christian position? Yes, it is. One of the fascinating things about Christianity is the way it separates people. It unites people who are led by the Holy Spirit, regardless of their races and so on. On the other hand, it separates us from belligerent, rebellious people who can’t be helped. We’re supposed to show them patience up to a point, and then we’re supposed to let them go and stop thinking about them.

When Lot was delivered from Sodom, he wasn’t just told to leave. He was told not to look back.

The people of Seattle and Minneapolis voted for this situation many times. They thought leftist rebellion was cute and stylish. They knew better; nearly everyone knows better. Now their foolishness and hypocrisy are biting them in the rear end, and still, many of them are defending their stupid actions. To feel sympathy for them is to have more concern for them than they have shown for themselves.

What about the Christians who are trapped in these areas? No sympathy. No one who has been listening to God has been trapped anywhere. If you had listened, you would have left. Or God has allowed you to remain there for a reason, and he has also provided an escape route you will take before long.

Discussing the day of his return, Jesus told parable of the 10 virgins;

“At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish and five were wise. The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.

“At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

“Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’

“‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’

“But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.

“Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’

“But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’

“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.”

That’s what’s happening now. If you’re in the wrong place, and you think God put you there, you don’t have oil. In the Bible, oil represents the presence of the Holy Spirit. He guides and teaches us.

The wedding banquet is a real event, and it will take place in heaven during the rapture. You will notice the parable mentions 10 women but only one groom. The groom is Jesus, and we are the virgins.

People who don’t believe in the baptism with the Holy Spirit, or who insist they received it automatically when they accepted Jesus, are going to be running around looking for oil after the doors have closed in front of them.

What happens in Seattle and Minneapolis, to people who continue to reject God and who don’t listen, isn’t my concern. They’ve made their choice. They’re not part of my world. I can observe their distress and learn from it, but I’m not supposed to get involved with it. There are better uses for my time. It’s hard to imagine a worse use. I would accomplish nothing at all, and Satan would squander my potential while I chased idiots. Jobs God wanted me to do would go undone.

People end up where they belong. They choose. Some people belong with God, and others belong in hell. It wasn’t created for them, but they select it. It’s pointless.

I was just interrupted by a call from a black friend. We spent a few minutes laughing at the riot nuts.

Is it wrong to laugh? It’s hard not to. You try to have a cheery outlook.

I guess I should stop now. I just received a big ammo shipment, and I have to test some new 10mm rounds I made yesterday. Maybe it’s good that I blog about my firearms. When the kooks decide to target me, they won’t take me seriously when I say I don’t want to hurt anyone. They will probably be deterred for quite a while. They talk a big game, but the very thought of forceful resistance turns their black Antifa outfits yellow.

BOO! I’m dangerous! No, seriously!

I’m getting ready to take my first precision rifle course, so that ought to boost my cred.

Anything that buys me time and peace is okay by me.

Trump Rallies no Longer Permitted to Exist?

The MSM is beside itself. President Donald Trump had a rally in Oklahoma, and attendance was poor.

To read the MSM sites, you would think America had abandoned Donald Trump. But is that true? The surge of racist, envy-driven rioting has awakened a lot of people. So did coronavirus, which, oddly, sent huge numbers of Americans to gun shops to buy their first firearms. Republican voter registration is up. The Trump economy is still good. These are things that ought to make it hard for Democrats to get elected.

Is the surge in Republican registrations real, though? Some say Democrats with no integrity are registering as Republicans in order to weaken the party from within.

It makes sense. Republicans will not reciprocate, because they are less enthusiastic about lying and spying. You can see this in our nonexistent response to the left’s habit of attending conservative events. BLMtifers show up at conservative events to riot and disrupt. When leftists have their own events, we generally avoid them.

According to a well-known former Republican, the reason Trump’s rally didn’t do well is that leftist liars took a large number of tickets fraudulently. Left-leaner Steve Schmidt, who worked as a strategist for people like McCain and Schwarzenegger, brags that his daughter and her friends have hundreds of tickets. Legislator and former bartendress Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez also bragged about the fraud and said she was proud of the people who had done it.

It’s a sickening moment. People who hate Trump are too stupid and immature to understand that subverting democracy is a great evil.

Some time ago, I predicted that America would one day be ruled not by Democrats or Republicans but by people with smartphones. I said technology’s ability to coordinate people was getting so strong, we would reach a point where elections and laws would lose their power. Everyone can’t be in the police or the national guard. It’s impossible to control Americans when a sufficient number of them are united in real time by gadgets. It looks like we’ve just seen a big step toward true technocracy administered by complete idiots. The Beast is discovering his hands.

We seem to be looking at a future in which mobs will be mobilized much too quickly for the government to react. It will be facilitated by a cyberspace infrastructure we all subsidize willingly through wireless and Internet fees. It’s as though the technocratic government already has a taxation system, and we’re all paying.

The law doesn’t matter, and fairness certainly doesn’t. Justice is one of the main things leftists hate. As the electronically coordinated Beast becomes more aware of its power and better able to direct it, anyone who disagrees with its infantile doctrine will be in danger of deletion. They call what they’re doing “canceling,” but that’s just bad English from people who aren’t bright. Cancellation only applies to events. It’s really deletion. They want to remove our voices, our power, our wealth, and all traces of our existence from the earth. Why do you think they pull statues down? A statue is evidence that a person lived.

If Jesus delays his coming long enough, electronic government will happen. It’s inevitable. Conservatives, Christians, whites, Jews, and Asians from China, Korea, and Japan will have to wall themselves inside enclaves in order to survive. No one who disagrees with the Beast will be safe in the general population.

They’ll be able to touch us anywhere. They’ll be able to mob-assassinate individuals they don’t like. If you blog from a cabin in Idaho, they will be able to converge on your property, pull you out of your house, and torture you to death for Facebook. The government won’t be able to help you. They won’t see it coming, and they won’t have the manpower.

We’ve already seen how our government handles riots. In some cases, they break things up, but in many cities, they have chosen to retreat instead. They don’t do that out of principle. They do it because they have no choice. The rioters are stronger than the police and the National Guard.

In the future, we’ll see riots directed at individuals, far from cities. It will be like the torches-and-pitchforks scene in Frankenstein. The police will let the rioters kill, just as they do when rioters attack groups.

According to Jewish legend, mob crime was one of the things God hated about Sodom and Gomorrah. There is evidence of this in the Bible. When the angels visited Lot, a gay mob showed up and insisted on having the angels released to them so they could rape them all night. Jewish legend says the Sodomites ruined visiting merchants by showing up in mobs. Each person would take one item, so no individual committed a crime that, in and of itself, was serious. The effects on the victims were worse than grand theft.

Maybe God burned the Sodomites alive partly to prevent mobs from understanding their power. Maybe he didn’t want their knowledge to spread.

God deleted the Sodomites, leaving only a few survivors. Now their spiritual descendants want to delete the Jews, God’s children, and anyone who succeeds in amassing wealth. It’s like I’ve been saying for a long time: the story of creation is a story of genocidal war.

Control over commerce has moved into the cyber realm. The Bible says the Beast will prevent God’s children from buying and selling. The more stores we lose, and the more we buy through cyberspace, the closer we get to the day when it will be possible to exclude people from commerce arbitrarily and without legal repercussions. Even if we move to insular communities and somehow manage to protect ourselves for a while, how will we get things like oil and electricity? How will we repair the things we have? If we rely on generators, how will we get parts for them?

If we want to defend ourselves, how will we get bullets, brass, and smokeless powder? Those things don’t just jump out of the ground on prepper farms. They have to be shipped from areas the Beast will control.

The Beast is somewhat like Thanos, the villain in the recent Avenger movies. Thanos felt that half of the universe’s population need to disappear. He thought overpopulation was an existential threat, which is an odd thing to believe in a universe which appears to be infinite in size. His answer was to create a jeweled gauntlet that allowed him to snap his fingers and make them vanish. Marvel’s writers didn’t say how he expected to prevent the population from rebounding, which is a little ridiculous, but never mind that.

The left–the Beast–sees people like me the way a body sees viruses. They want us gone, permanently. They truly believe utopia is possible but for the presence and influence of people like me. They want to snap their fingers and delete us. The Beast just snapped his fingers in Tulsa.

Even if we have a temporary recovery from our insanity, the Beast will eventually get what he wants. It’s foolish to argue with prophesy. It’s absurd to try to prevent it from coming to pass.

I have the feeling that something that kept the world going has been taken away. It’s as though humanity had been shot with a poisoned arrow, and I’m watching it die. It doesn’t know it has been killed, but death is spreading through the body the way hemlock slowly extinguished Socrates.

All over the US, tattooed brats are celebrating their own doom.

I have a feeling similar to the feeling you get when you know you’re going to dump your girlfriend. You’re both smiling, she thinks things are fine, and you still spend time together, but you know it’s over, and you look forward to live without her. A lot of people think God is still doing everything he used to do to keep the world running, but I think he stopped a while ago. I think the world has been jilted.

I feel myself mourning. Not for me. For a country that should have had a better end, and for arrogant young boneheads who are sowing agony and eternal damnation into their own endless futures. I also feel bad for weak Christians who appease and compromise, thinking nothing has changed. They think people who see the end coming are cranks. They’re going to get a lot of nasty surprises.

I think people who are truly close to God will have great favor in the coming days. I think many of us will do well regardless of the Beast’s deletion campaign, and the favor God gives us will be used to heighten leftist hatred. It will drive people to sharpen knives and dream of plunging them into us. If you have toilet paper, good food, and a nice house, you will be a greedy Jew who fattened himself on Germany’s Weimar misery and then celebrated Pesach with matzohs made with the blood of Gentile babies. You will be a privileged white who wallows in money generated by the suffering of black slaves. You will be a Romanov who moved from palace to palace, drinking the blood of serfs.

You’ll be everyone the Beast’s slandering children can blame for their own self-inflicted unhappiness and failure. You’ll be whatever figure of fantasy they can conjure up.

Maybe I should get rid of my guns. I don’t plan to use them defensively. I study the subject, and I prepare for it by buying appropriate weapons and making good ammunition, but those are just intellectual exercises. It’s a hobby. I don’t want to hole up behind sandbags and shoot flash mob assassins. It would make me more like them, and it could keep me here with them a lot longer. It would increase my entanglement with them.

I can understand why Jesus and Paul didn’t resist the people who killed them. Think how tired they were, after dealing with human beings for so long. If you fight the Beast’s kids, you may prolong your exposure to them unnecessarily and delay your escape to heaven.

If I have guns, I might defend myself reflexively instead of accepting a welcome transfer to a better place.

I’ll keep them while I can. I enjoy shooting. As far as I can tell, God wants me to have them.

I don’t want to be here when they come for the guns or when they start imprisoning and killing us. I don’t want the pain of watching the end. I don’t want to see the pierced and the stained, hooting and dancing as they perpetrate atrocities on defenseless people who are better than they are. There is nothing I can do about it, though. I can’t leave the earth. I can only wait to be taken.

I wish I could do more before I go. I tried to get involved in ministry starting in around 2007, but I was rejected and back-burnered over and over. Churches and movements are crooked. They can tell if you’re going to mess things up for them. If you’re honest about greed and lies, or if you talk about the need for inner change, you’re the enemy. Satan runs churches just as he rules Antifa and Planned Parenthood.

If you’re tired of people bothering you and trying to involve you in things, start telling the truth. You’ll be unpopular in no time. I speak from experience.

Maybe I’ll still be used to get something done. For all I know, I may have to remain on earth for 30 more years. I would like to see people get physical healing miracles through me. I would like to see people delivered from compulsions and delusions. I would like to see them grow up and become one with God. Maybe I made these things impossible through my own bad behavior.

If Trump wins and we get a brief reprieve, it will have to be because God stood up for us and defeated the Beast. We just don’t have the earthly tools to beat his benighted flock.

Somehow, Racism Must be at the Bottom of It

CORRECTION AT BOTTOM.

Yesterday a cousin I barely know sent me a text to check on me. I believe she lives in Arizona. She said she and her husband had been helping Navajos. She said the epidemic had hit Navajos harder than other people.

That got me thinking. I already knew blacks were getting hit badly, and we all know older people in homes are more likely to be infected . People in homes represent something like 25% of all covid-related deaths. Today I learned that Latins and prisoners were also at higher risk. Now I’m learning that American Indians get infected more often. It’s not just Navajos. What’s the explanation?

The CDC, predictably, says racism explains the rate among blacks. That was easy, wasn’t it?

Lower incomes? The cause must be racism. More heart disease? Racism. Sickle cell anemia? Definitely racism. When the race card is in their hand, liberals don’t even look at the other cards.

Racism isn’t making people sick. When the CDC blames racism, it’s making a self-serving wild guess that also helps it virtue-signal.

If a certain group gets inferior healthcare, it should result in more deaths, not more infections. It wouldn’t make people more likely to be infected, but it would make them less likely to get adequate care once they were ill.

I can see why prisoners and residents of homes get infected. A home is just a prison for old people. Both types of facilities confine people on whom society places a low value. We put them in small spaces, and we don’t really try to keep them safe, because we don’t care about them. It should have been expected.

Minorities are different. They’re not confined together. Why are they getting sick?

I just read a story in which an official claims to have come up with the reason: racism. That surprised me. Okay, it didn’t. She says many Navajos don’t have running water or electricity, and the government has let them down by failing to provide good healthcare. But isn’t medical care what helps people who are already sick? I have never seen any source of information that suggested healthcare providers could slow the transmission of covid. On the contrary, they put that burden entirely on the public. Don’t leave your house. Wear a mask. Wash your hands. Doctors and nurses can’t help you do those things.

It’s as though supernatural forces had chosen to focus on certain nations and groups. I wonder if that’s the case.

If the disease were somehow being directed toward enemies of God, you would expect it to hit leftists harder. That has actually happened here in America. The Northeast has an extremely high disease rate. Liberal cities across America have high rates of infection. San Francisco is a notable exception, but California itself has a high rate. Hawaii hasn’t been hit hard by the virus, but it has been slammed economically because a quarantine order cut off money from the state’s major industry: tourism.

Blacks and Latins tend to be liberal. American Indians depend heavily on government assistance and generally support Democrats.

I can’t find information on infection rates among gays. Either it doesn’t exist, or it’s being concealed. They are overwhelmingly liberal, and they have an abysmal record of containing infections. They still have epidemics of venereal diseases the rest of us rarely contract.

American Jews tend to be atheists and supporters of Israel’s enemies. They have a high infection rate. This is true even of Orthodox Jews, who are more supportive of Israel. Israel itself has a low infection rate.

Republicans are more likely than leftists to be friends of God, and a May article from Reuters said the coronavirus rate in Democrat-controlled areas was triple the rate in conservative areas. Triple!

Remember how Democrats made fun of conservative counties in Florida when hurricanes came through? They said it was God’s punishment for voting for Bush. They distributed silly memes which distorted the truth, making it look like the storms were heavily concentrated in conservative areas. In fact, liberal areas got hit, too. Could it be that God is making his response?

In 2012, leftist extremist Antonio Villaraigosa presided over a voice vote at the Democratic Convention, supposedly after Barack Obama forced the issue. The Democrats had removed “God” from the text of their platform, along with text acknowledging Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The delegates voted on restoring this language. They voted several times, clearly in the negative. Villaraigosa looked at other leaders for help, knowing he was in a pickle. Then he lied and said the motion had passed, and he was booed loudly. Is God thinking about that now?

In the Revelation, after releasing a horseman to conquer the earth for Jesus, God releases three other horsemen to torment the earth. The first horseman is disease, and the second is lack. When the second horseman is released, a voice says, “Two pounds of wheat for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wage’s, and do not harm the oil and the wine.” The third horseman is murder. Like a lot of people, I have said he represents war, but that’s not what the Revelation says. It says he takes peace from the earth and makes people kill each other. That’s not necessarily war. Look at the BLMtifa riots.

We saw coronavirus, which is a disease, and then we saw lack. Now, with the riots, we are seeing an end to domestic peace. These things took place in the same order in which the horsemen were released.

The next thing the Revelation predicts for the earth is the fall of the stars of heaven. They will fall on the earth like untimely figs.

Stars are great spirits. Is God about to release powerful spirits on the earth to punish mankind?

The Revelation says 4 spirits will be ordered to prevent the wind from blowing on the earth, and before the real destruction starts, the people of God will be sealed in their foreheads.

It’s confusing. The story about the horsemen and ensuing disasters seems to describe things that can’t happen until the rapture has taken place. It speaks of people who have come to heaven through the tribulation, which is a post-rapture event.

Maybe what we’re seeing now is a little picture of that time. A preview. Maybe we will see something that looks like the tribulation, except that it will be relatively mild.

I’m very confident the tribulation can’t come before the rapture. God removed Noah’s family before the flood, and he removed Lot from Sodom. He separated the Hebrews from Egypt and protected them from the plagues. I don’t see why he would show us that pattern over and over and then abandon it.

If we’re seeing a preview, maybe we should expect violence and the cancel culture to rage for a while and then subside somewhat so people can repent and prepare.

Then, of course, it would all come back, except it would be worse, and it would not subside. It would just lead into things that were more unpleasant.

If God is involved in what’s happening, why is San Francisco doing so well? It’s an extremely vile place. It also has strong ties to China, and many sick people must have flown from San Francisco since the epidemic began.

When the USA was making plans to drop the atom bomb, our leaders spared certain cities from conventional bombing. They spared Hiroshima because they wanted a clean target for nuclear weapons. They wanted to be able to distinguish Little Boy’s effects from those of ordinary bombs. I wonder if San Francisco is being set up.

I don’t know what’s happening. I’m just trying to perceive the pattern.

I think Revelation’s admonition not to harm the oil and the wine is about God’s plan to protect people who belong to him. Oil represents the Holy Spirit, and wine represents the blood of Jesus, which confers salvation. Maybe people who are really on God’s side are receiving protection.

Why wouldn’t God protect old people from covid? Maybe old people who don’t belong to him are dying. Or maybe he’s sparing them the ordeal of being elderly and helpless during the tribulation. The antichrist’s people venerate the young and excoriate the old. They have no respect for the wisdom of older people, and they blame them for the world’s problems. Who knows what they’ll do to older people when God’s hand isn’t here to restrain them?

We’ve already seen them mistreating the elderly in videos from the riots.

It makes sense that prisoners wouldn’t do well in a world facing God’s wrath. Prisons house the worst, least godly people in society.

The other day while I was in prayer, I felt he said, “I will surround you like a shield.” I hope so. He has done that so far. I hope other people will get as close to him as they can and avoid the pain of his anger.

CORRECTION

I made a strange error in this post. Somehow, I got the order of the horsemen of the apocalypse mixed up. It goes like this: conquest, violence, lack, and death.

I thought the last three horsemen were death (disease and so on), lack, and violence, in that order. We have had a pandemic, shortages, and riots. I thought it might mean something that the same things were taking place in the same order.

Of course, we had a bunch of BLM and Antifa riots before the current wave of opportunistic crime by filthy criminals masquerading as activists, but I don’t recall any shortages.

It’s strange that I got this wrong, because it was right in front of me.

Get in the Ark

I’m so tired of being lectured and told I have to fight racism. I completely understand why duped, hateful BLMtifa protestors would be excited about what they’re doing, but I’m getting micro-lectures from companies I pay for goods and services. That’s idiotic and presumptuous, and it’s not good business.

I bought an Amazon Kindle because it was time to admit that the Asus tablet I had bought years earlier was a terrible product and of little use. After the rioting started, I started seeing messages about BLM when I turned my tablet on.

I have Amazon Prime because there is really no other way to shop now. All restaurants aren’t Taco Bell yet, but most stores are Amazon or Ebay. I made a rare decision to watch a movie a few days back, and Amazon Prime filled my screen with a bunch of ads for horrible movies about black victimhood. I’ve already seen A Raisin in the Sun and Imitation of Life, Bezos. I don’t need you telling me I need to be reeducated. What if I forced Jeff Bezos to look at ads for Christian movies every time I bought a product?

Over the last few days, I’ve come to a very mature realization that I now live in a mental ward. A huge percentage of Americans are literally insane. Reason never meant as much to Americans as they pretended; it was something they resorted to when emotion and lusts didn’t work. Now it means nearly nothing.

I love Youtube because I have so many interests. Whether I feel like learning about rifles, welding, complex analysis, engineering statics, quantum mechanics, electronics, cooking, God, or nearly anything else, Youtube can provide me with useful input.

Sometimes I see people talking about the riots and the PC insanity. They try to correct people. Maybe I’m doing the same thing now. For example, they may say we should focus on the enormous, astounding, perennial problem of black homicide while we’re thinking about helpful reform. They may point out obvious things such as the terrible cost of rioting. They may propose solutions such as buying guns and making public shows of force in order to protect their towns. The sad thing is that all these effort to provide information are based on a faulty premise, which is that people listen to reason.

Americans are insane now. You can’t cure a crazy person by arguing with him. He lives in a false reality where logic is optional or where his corrupt imitation of logic leads him to ridiculous conclusions.

Spirits work in everyone. The Holy Spirit works in a small percentage of human beings, and evil spirits work in just about everyone. Spirits shape our feelings and thoughts. Evil spirits are like their leader, Satan. They are liars. A lie is something that conflicts with reason. Reason always leads to truth.

The Bible plainly says that God gives people over to evil influences when they rebel long enough. The New Testament says this is an explanation for homosexuality, which is an inherently absurd practice. If you were a farmer, and you had a rooster that only had sex with other roosters, you wouldn’t paint a rainbow on the henhouse and adopt chicks for him. You’d know something was seriously wrong. Somehow, though, human beings are able to look at two men who engage in ludicrous parodies of normal sex and conclude that what they do is healthy and right.

You can explain the birds and the bees to pro-homosexuality people all day, and you can point to the plant and animal kingdoms all you want, but they can’t perceive the obvious. They are literally insane. Spirits have convinced them evil is good.

Spirits are telling mobs white people cause their problems, which is beyond absurd.

White people have spread the gospel around the world. White people are primarily responsible for science, engineering, and medicine. White people spread the concept of civilization that incorporates strong individual rights, including rights for minorities. White people gave us the only tolerable systems of government. Whatever the faults of Caucasians may be, we do not cause all the world’s problems, and we have done a tremendous amount of good.

White people deserve most of the credit for civil rights reform. No one likes to hear that, but it’s true. White people are the only people who will march to protest their own racism. Black and Hispanic racism are intense and widespread. They are mainstream. You never see non-white people marching in the streets protesting their own dangerous, self-destructive bigotry.

We’re just not that bad, but the insane, many of whom are white, are convinced the nation would be better off with blacks, Hispanics, and American Indians in charge. It’s probably not a great idea to look at Africa, Mexico, South America, or Haiti when you make that claim, but they make it anyway.

Haiti is one of the worst places on earth, and their BLM movement achieved complete and permanent success over 200 years ago. People of other races cause problems just fine without white involvement.

Racial disunity is a great evil, and BLM perpetuates it through slander and violence. The Holy Spirit unifies people who are physically descended from different races. He makes them brothers and sisters in ways genetics can never rival. People who choose sides based on physical race and genetics are fighting God, who says all those who are led by the Holy Spirit are siblings.

Isaiah says God’s house will be a house of prayer for all people. How is it, then, that we still have Christians who separate themselves by race? If you run a black church, how are you going to feel if you go to heaven and find yourself surrounded by whites and Asians? How will you explain how you practiced segregation on earth?

There I go again, using reason, as though it had some sort of power.

Much of the time, the truth is spoken not to bring change but to facilitate judgment. Often, God speaks to people who won’t listen, simply so there will be evidence to use against them when they are judged. And sometimes the truth is spoken as confirmation for those who already believe.

Here’s another truth that has been brought home to me: the justice system is useless because it heeds the voice of the Beast.

I’ve always known courts functioned poorly. Many jurors are stupid, stubborn, and dishonest. Many judges are stupid, stubborn, and dishonest. If you have a very strong case, you will probably win when you go to court, but if there is any room for squirming, there’s a good chance you will be wronged by the judge or jury. This has always been true. Lawyers aren’t supposed to say things like this because we’re generally full of it. We’re supposed to have a sort of thin blue line. We’re supposed to talk about the majesty and holiness of the legal calling, but we all know what I’m saying is true.

These days, things are worse than they used to be. In the past, your main problems were the biases of your judge and jury. Now you have to worry about the opinions of complete idiots jumping up and down on overturned police cars. Prosecutors, judges, and jurors are going after people because they want to placate rioters and potential rioters. They want to please utter morons.

Well, maybe not morons. Psychotics. The hopelessly, willfully insane.

The kind of people who motivated the invention of the water cannon.

We saw this in the Zimmerman case. A man who was Hispanic, partly black, and partly white was recruited and trained by the police so he could do neighborhood watch work. He saw a stranger on the grass between residences in an area where property crime was rampant. He followed the stranger, legally, in order to guide the police to him. The stranger, who was younger, bigger, stronger, and in better physical condition, attacked him illegally and began beating his head against a concrete sidewalk. Zimmerman, who was armed legally and modestly, fired a single shot and then stopped.

Prosecutor Angela Corey committed perjury–a felony and disbarment offense–in order to get Zimmerman into trial. There is no doubt about it. I read the documents and watched the hearing. Alan Dershowitz agrees.

The other day, a man tried to drive past a belligerent crowd in Seattle. I’ve seen the video. He rolled up to an intersection at about 10 miles per hour. Protestors blocked him, which is a crime. A big man reached into his window and punched him in the face for no reason. The injured victim got out, waved a gun, and ran to the nearest police station. He could not drive away because he was blocked and his car had stalled. He shot his attacker in the arm and then withheld fire. Now he has a felony case to deal with. That’s amazing.

He may have been seconds away from being pulled out of the car and being beaten like Reginald Denny.

The standard justification for using lethal force is a reasonable fear of serious injury or death. This man was in a sea of angry lawbreakers, in a country where people were being beaten and killed by rioters. He was attacked for no reason. He did nothing wrong while he approached the intersection. He was attacked viciously by a larger assailant who was part of a group, and he used restraint in defending himself. Obviously, his mental state met the criteria for the legal use of deadly force.

Doesn’t matter. The Beast cried out for blood, just as it did in the Coliseum in Rome.

The prosecutors would have been happier had he been kicked to death.

They didn’t arrest the man who beat the victim or the criminals who blocked the road.

Witnesses and news anchors said the victim drove at the crowd at high speed. Nothing could be further from the truth. There was no crowd in front of him. Criminals stopped him by throwing an object in his path, and he was moving slowly. Internet stories say the attacker is a hero who was shot while shielding others!

Your rights don’t matter very much now. Not when you’re against the Beast. He has most people intimidated. They want to curry favor with him. They want to appease, just as Jews appease his servants in Israel by giving them land. The truth won’t necessarily help you. The law may not help you, because it may not be applied.

The law does whatever the police, prosecutors, judges, and jurors want it to. That has always been true. Lawyers are not supposed to say that, but it’s true. When the Beast infects the minds of people who decide what the law means, the law itself becomes clay in the hands of sadistic children.

You can’t make the law your messiah. You can’t expect to be treated well just because you’re innocent. There are a lot of conservatives who want to go as far as the law permits. That’s dangerous. Sometimes you need to yield a considerable distance from the boundary where your rights end. You don’t have to go everywhere the law lets you go. You don’t have to say everything the law lets you say. You don’t have to protect yourself with violence just because the law permits it.

I’m not saying people should bend the knee every time, but an intelligent person chooses his battles. Even Jesus avoided his enemies.

What if the victim in Seattle had decided not to assert his rights as fully as he did? He shouldn’t have had to take another route, but if he had, he would be at work today without the threat of imprisonment and poverty hanging over his head.

The press has largely ignored the story since the victim’s name was released. He’s Hispanic. His name is Nikolas Fernandez. If his name were Flaherty, we would still be hearing about him.

Imagine what it must be like to be a Hispanic man in prison for shooting a black man. In Washington prisons, there are about 4 times as many blacks as Hispanics.

The proper answer to your safety problems is to get to know the Holy Spirit. You need to know how to pray, bless, and curse. You need to hear God and obey him when he tells you what to do and what to avoid doing. Physical weapons are better than nothing, but you shouldn’t settle for better than nothing. You should be obtaining the best weapons and cover there are.

I support the people who mass at BLMtifa protests with displayed weapons. Don’t doubt that. Today I saw a ridiculous article about armed people ruining a “peaceful” protest. What the biased writer didn’t say was that the weapons were what kept the protest peaceful. There have been a lot of riots that could have been prevented by the presence of armed citizens. It’s great that the police are cooperating with armed citizens in so many places. But ultimately, you need God to wrap himself around you like a shield. You can’t buy that at a gun shop.

A pistol is a third-rate weapon you should only use to fight your way to a rifle, and a rifle is something you should only rely on when you can’t get God’s help.

People say guns at protests will lead to shootouts, but that probably isn’t true. The protestors can’t bring guns and start shooting without abandoning their pose of left-wing faux holiness. It would be even more of a gaffe than eating factory veal.

I’m not sure what to do with myself, living in world which is ceasing to function. I’m pretty sure the world has gone insane for keeps. We recovered from the 1960’s because people got tired of posing and got jobs. We recovered from the PC plague of the 1980’s because the majority of Americans ridiculed it. The response to the 2020 PC plague is weak, and it seems to be losing ground.

The Revelation tells a story of Satan’s plan for the church. It says a woman clothed with the sun gave birth, and a red dragon waited so it could eat the baby. The dragon was cast down to Earth, and the baby–Jesus–was taken out of his reach. The dragon’s answer was to try to drown the woman with a flood. We are the woman.

In the Bible, floods are voices, words, and people. Look what we’re seeing now. The antichristians are trying to drown us in words and mobthink. They tell lie after lie, just as Goebbels would wish, until the lies are accepted as truth and those who tell the truth are seen as wrong and dangerous. It’s not just our words they object to; it’s our existence and the record of our existence.

They have a new thing: “canceling.” Once you’ve said enough things they don’t like, they decide you don’t exist. It’s exactly like the Orthodox Jewish practice of trying to “blot out” the name of Yeshua. It’s not enough to win the fight; you have to make it as though your adversary never existed.

How did Peter avoid drowning? He was able to walk on water only because Jesus lifted him. He could not save himself. It’s a picture of Spirit-led Christians rising above the current flood of antichristian propaganda and slander.

Are you surprised because the social nephilim…I mean “giants”…are censoring conservatives and Christians? Why? Didn’t you see it coming? You did if you read my blog.

Do you feel safe because the things you say are protected by the Constitution? Do you feel safe because the most provocative things you’ve said were uttered years ago? Don’t fool yourself. You are liable, and you will always be at risk. The antichristians don’t respect the Constitution, and they have no statute of limitations. We’ve already seen people have their lives ruined over things they said decades ago.

I hope they never get their hands on the Trumps. If the family exists long enough, there will be attempts to have mock trials accompanied by atrocities.

I fully expect the antichristians to come for me eventually. My blog will be all the evidence they need. They will need to erase me and everyone like me in order to perfect their fantasy world.

What am I supposed to do with the remaining 30 or so years I may have left? Three decades trapped in a mental ward, with people who can’t be cured because they hate the medicine. Three decades of humoring lunatics. Is that my future?

As of today, the insanity isn’t complete. We have what I would call insanity-related complex. Full-blown insanity is still on the way. I don’t want to be here for that.

Some people pity John for being exiled to Patmos, but I think it was a great break for him. It’s a beautiful island with a nice climate. It was isolated from the insanity of the Roman Empire. I think he must have loved Patmos. I live in a sort of Patmos right now, and I would literally prefer death to moving back to a suburb. Give me a meteor any day. It beats sitting in traffic, kowtowing to sleazy mayors, being threatened with riots, and having neighbors in my face all day, pressuring me with their ignorance and immaturity.

You don’t have to be in the middle of a city to serve God. We have the Internet now, we have wonderful things called cars that allow you to visit populated areas briefly, and besides, are cities very likely to be productive? If they were, would they be in the shape they’re in?

People who still think reason and their rights will protect them are going to go down just like the Jews who waited for the German government to save them. You need to get away from the Beast’s strongholds before the window closes. You need to connect with God. Otherwise you’re just driving through enemy territory without a map.

Clean Your House in Preparation for Departure

The feeling that the age of the church, or the age of the gentiles, if you prefer, is over, hangs on me like a weighted quilt. It has settled in.

For the last two thousand years, the God of Judaism has been holding an open house. Billions of people have joined, or claimed to have joined, his family. God used churches and preachers. He showed the world great patience while he increased the number of his children. Now things are winding down. Like an orchard owner whose trees have already been picked over, he has reached the point where the remaining fruit don’t justify keeping a full crew at work.

The harvest isn’t completely over, but then the Bible says it will continue into the tribulation, after the rapture.

Perry Stone teaches something interesting. A tribulum is a board with bits of metal or stone imbedded in the underside. A person who wants to separate grain from its husks stands on a tribulum while an animal pulls him around. Tribulation is a pretty harsh way of separating food from trash. The use of the word “tribulation” to describe God’s final effort at saving people before the Messianic Age seems to imply that the whole business is getting more difficult.

I was thinking about Seattle this morning. People who are so deluded they should be considered insane have taken over an entire neighborhood, intimidating and driving out citizens who are against them as well as the police and the mayor. In doing so, they showed rioters all over the country how powerful they are. They created a pattern for them to follow. The Seattle mutineers don’t seem to be burning or killing, although they have stolen a great deal, and they use rifles to force other people to bend the knee. What will antichristian insurgents in other cities do when they take over? No intelligent person would expect them to refrain from violence. To expect that would be to demonstrate a complete lack of understanding of human nature, not to mention ignorance of history.

To me, Seattle looks like a gentle warning from God. He’s showing people in other cities what they face if they don’t get connected to the Holy Spirit and move out. It’s not enough to move out, because you might move to the wrong place. You need the Holy Spirit to tell you exactly where to go.

The flood didn’t start with a wall of water a mile high. It started as a gentle rain. A few drops here and there. Seattle is a raindrop.

The antichristians are taking over cities. Somebody has to take over rural areas. Not by force, but simply by buying land and gathering there.

In ancient times, the Jews worshiped in the city of Jerusalem, and the pagans worshiped in the wilderness. This time, the cities belong to the pagans, and Christians are the ones living among the trees. Maybe it reflects an inversion of the power structure. Pagans used to be weaker than people who worshiped God. It made sense that they would worship in the wilderness. When pagans gain control, they aren’t afraid, so they go wherever they want. The pagan king Antiochus IV Epiphanes sacrificed a pig in the temple.

We are seeing underdogs rise up and rule people who used to have power over them. Things used to go pretty well for Christians, males, white people, and heterosexuals. They took over continents and replaced primitive, cruel civilizations that worshiped fallen angels and demons. The conquering peoples weren’t particularly good, but they carried a contagion God wanted to spread. They had the gospel. They were motivated largely by greed, but God backed them up anyway. The word says he won’t return until every people on earth has heard the gospel, so God gave favor to people carrying the infection.

Now the demographic that was useful to God has, by and large, melted into the antichristian crowd it was sent to save. The salt has lost its saltness, so it isn’t a preservative any more.

What did Jesus say would happen to salt that lost its saltness? He said it was only fit to be trodden underfoot. That’s what’s happening to the kind of people who used to be on top.

There are deluded people on the right who think white people should prevail because they’re superior. They think we should rise up, shake ourselves like Samson, and destroy the Philistines. They mistake the power of man for the power of God. They don’t understand the story of Belshazzar’s feast.

Samson was taken easily, and he was blinded and forced to grind grain. The far-right people who exalt themselves above God are as blind as he was, and they are going to grind grain. When you grind grain, you destroy its ability to reproduce, and you get a product which is only fit to be put in an oven and eaten. Jesus used a reference to a millstone to threaten clergymen who ground people up and ate their wealth instead of teaching them to grow and bear in the kingdom of heaven.

Leftist pagans and conservatives who deny the Holy Spirit serve Satan. They’ll be here after the rapture, after people who actually know God are moved home. The Bible speaks of antichrists who came out of Christianity. They still do. You can call yourself a Christian and still be a very damaging antichristian.

Leftist antichristians who think they’re fighting Christians are really fighting right-wing antichristians who merely claim to belong to God. The fight between these factions has nothing to do with real Christians. It’s a family squabble which will continue in hell.

The only true races are the family of God and the family of Satan. Color and geographic origin have nothing to do with race. Heaven and hell are full of people of all colors. The notion that white blood will save the world is a delusion that leads to damnation. So is the delusion that white people cause the world’s problems.

I’ve been listening to the Revelation. It speaks of four horsemen who are released before the end of the age. The first is a man on a white horse. He wears a crown and is sent out to conquer. The second is a man on a red horse, symbolizing blood, sent out with a sword to take peace from the world. The third is a man on a black horse, carrying scales, sent to bring lack. The fourth is a man on a pale horse, sent to spread plagues. The word translated as “pale” means “pallid” or “pale green,” like a very sick person or a corpse.

There is a difference between the first horsemen and the others. He is the only one with a crown. He can’t be a spreader of war, because the man on the red horse does that. After the horsemen are introduced, the last three horses are mentioned as a group, not including the man on the white horse.

The man on the white horse must be Jesus. He is royalty. His horse is white, symbolizing purity. He conquers. Christians are supposed to conquer. We aren’t supposed to subjugate people by force. We are supposed to spread salvation, conquering the kingdom of Satan. Jesus goes out gathering whomever he can before the others follow and judge the world.

The first horseman is sent out first, so he finishes first. His work is wrapping up. As he leaves center stage, the other horsemen get more power.

The story of the horsemen seems very consistent with what we’re seeing in the world today. And our president’s name is Trump, which almost seems too obvious. It’s a German word which means “drum,” but in English, it means “trump,” or “trumpet.”

“Donald” means “ruler of the world,” so “Donald Trump” could mean “trumpet of the ruler of the world.” His middle name is John, which means, “Yahweh is gracious.”

The trumpet of Yahweh, gracious ruler of the world?

“Joseph” means, “Yah increases.” Biden’s middle name, Robinette, means “little robin.” “Biden” means “button.” Not much there to work with. Of course, he would not rule long because of dementia, which will almost certainly kill him by 2025, disabling him much sooner. What if he picks Kamala Harris to be the next president?

“Kamala” means “lotus.” In Hinduism, the lotus symbolizes a person’s power to let demonic power flow through him. Her middle name, “Devi,” means “goddess.” Her last name means, “home ruler.” It doesn’t sound very good.

Harris was raised Hindu, so unless she has changed her mind, she worships demons. She also attended a Baptist church when she was young, but if you’re a Hindu and a Baptist, to God, you’re just a Hindu.

Barack Obama carried a Hindu idol in his pocket for luck, meaning favor from false gods, and he also contaminated the White House with a gold-covered statue of the same false god. The false god is named Hanuman, and he is like one of the nephilim or children of the fallen angels. He is the son of a false god. He has the form of a monkey, symbolizing the flesh, but he is immortal. Jesus died to cause the kingdom of heaven to invade the earth, which was ruled by fleshly people who served false gods. Satan wants to invade heaven and take the kingdom of the flesh there. He wants to “raise hell.”

Hanuman could be considered the Hindu antichrist. Jesus was a man conceived by God in the womb of a woman, and although he was flesh, he had the character of the Holy Spirit. He is the king of the body of Christ, a group of people who have transcended the nature of their monkey-like flesh. Hanuman was conceived by a fallen angel in the womb of a woman, and although he was supposed to be a god and a spirit, he had the form of a monkey. He was the king of the monkeys; animals that look like people yet which are no better than pigs.

Maybe the abomination Obama put in the White House was a foothold for a future invasion.

Very soon, we will reach the 2000th anniversary of the crucifixion. Historians think it happened between 30 and 33 A.D. Would God be that obvious? Would he really give us exactly 2000 years between the cruficixion and the rapture? The Bible says no one knows the date or hour when Jesus will return, but it doesn’t say you can’t know the year or the decade, and it doesn’t say anything about knowing the date of the rapture, which is a different event. The rapture is not the return of Jesus. In the rapture, we go to him. The return comes later, after the tribulation.

Will the rapture take place before, say, 2035? Will Jesus return and begin the Messianic Age by then? If he returns by 2035, he has to rapture us by the end of 2027. The tribulation, during which the saved will be in heaven at the marriage feast of Jesus, will take 7 years.

In other news, God have me a weapon which seems useful. I look at the undesirable things in my life, and I say, “I reject this delivery in the name of Jesus Christ. It does not belong to me.” I say it with regard to negative compulsions, physical problems, and so on. I feel things leave me when I say it. If you have the ability to perceive the supernatural, you know what I mean. I plan to keep doing it. I’m supposed to rule my own house.

I’m going to keep listening to the Revelation, and I am going to try to get more and more of God’s guidance. Even if the rapture doesn’t come by 2027, I don’t have a lot of time left.

Poodles Everywhere Would Breathe Sighs of Relief

I am still not quite determined enough to quit looking at the news. I saw a few stories this morning. Man, it’s crazy out there. The US has gone certifiably insane, and I don’t think we’re going to recover. I think this is the end. Seems like all we can do is evangelize and try to stay saved.

I don’t know what will happen in November. The utter lunacy of the antichristians is surely scaring millions of people. Maybe enough voters will swing to the right to buy us 4 more years of Trump and conservative federal judge appointments. It won’t mean America is okay, but it could give sane Christians time to situate themselves as well as possible for the pogroms, killing fields, and gulags.

This stuff isn’t the talk of fantasy, nor is it related to far-off events. As of this year, we are officially in the gravity well of the Antichrist. We are sinking quickly into Satan’s singularity of evil.

It was bad enough when you could get fired for saying you didn’t support homosexual marriage. Now people are getting fired for saying things like, “The coronavirus threat was exaggerated.” It proves conservatives were right about the antichristian hype and bias surrounding the disease, but antichristians have never been very concerned about being proven wrong, because logic is not something that concerns them.

If you think they’re vicious now, wait till they’ve spent 4 more years under Trump. When they finally get the White House back, they will be like rocks flying out of a sling. The pent-up energy of years of restrained rage will escape containment like ball bearings from a pipe bomb.

How long am I going to be here? How long will the world be permitted to exist in anything resembling the form we are used to? The age of the Gentiles is clearly over. How long will it take for the end to manifest fully?

I guess it’s okay to buy green bananas, but I would be surprised if Jesus will stay away long enough to let anyone pay off a 30-year mortgage.

I wish I had accomplished more for God. I will be evaluated like everyone else.

The word says Jesus won’t return until the whole world is against Israel. We always assume that refers to a military attack, but does it? The UN is already against Israel. When pro-Israel matters come up, only a handful of countries stand by Israel.

If the Bible says “all nations” will be against Israel, does it really mean every single nation? I will make some people mad when I say this, but sometimes when the Bible says “all,” it really means “most.”

I’m not a prophecy scholar, so I don’t know exactly how things are expected to proceed.

What do I do while I wait? I’ll fool with my hobbies, of course.

I think I have a plan for the AR15. That’s news.

I wanted my AR15 to be a fun target and varmint gun. I put a scope on it and shot some cheap FMJ ammo which ought to produce 2 MOA groups. I got more like 5 MOA, which is smoothbore territory. That motivated me to do more research. Along the way, I read some things I didn’t like too much.

For one thing, I saw depressing things about the 5.56 cartridge, which is what military AR-style rifles shoot. For in actual use, it’s interchangeable with the .223. Many guns, mine included, will fire either round without a barrel change. I read that the military liked the 5.56 partly because it was weak! The idea is that if you wound an enemy soldier without killing him, you take more people out of the battle, because at least one person has to stop fighting to help him. If he dies, everyone else can keep fighting.

I’ll bet this is true. Soldiers have complained a lot about the 5.56 failing to stop enemy troops. It has to be a bummer when enemy soldiers charge you and you’re stuck with a gun designed to not kill them. It turns you into a statistic. Somewhere, a defense analyst is happy with your situation, because even though you may die, overall, the gun you’re using may be more effective in achieving victory for the people who outlive you.

Weak rounds may be great for winning wars, but civilians don’t fight wars. They generally have to shoot somewhere between 1 and 5 criminals, and in those situations, they need their assailants to be incapacitated as quickly as possible. Wounding isn’t enough.

I know murderers who have used the AR15 to kill innocent people have used the .223 (or 5.56) round, but when these things happen, you generally see a very high ratio of survivors to fatalities. Would that happen if they shot M1 Garands?

People who are critical of the .223 call guns that use it “poodle shooters.”

Why do I care, if I don’t plan to use the gun for self-defense? I don’t know. It just seems silly to buy into a specialized pair of calibers that clearly were never designed to solve civilian problems. I can also say it highlights the 5.56’s total unsuitability for hunting anything bigger than a coyote.

The .223 doesn’t seem all that accurate. I should add that. A really good AR15 with great ammunition generally won’t shoot as well as a $350 .204 Ruger bolt action rifle with cheap Fiocchi cartridges. I believe this is true. Feel free to correct me. My .204 Ruger rifle appears to give match-grade performance for a budget price.

I also read about the 6mm ARC, which is the newest hotshot AR15 cartridge. The AR15 has been chambered in a bunch of calibers, partly, I’m sure, because of the problems with the 5.56. Some cartridges have done well, and some have bombed. If the current hype is to be believed, the 6mm ARC is a monumental step forward, and it solves a lot of problems well.

It’s better for self-defense because it’s much harder on human beings and obstacles than the .223 or 5.56. It’s better for hunting because it will kill deer and bears reliably. It’s better for varmint hunting because it’s crazy accurate. It’s better for long-range shooting because it’s powerful beyond distances at which the .223 poops out.

What’s the drawback? The only one I’ve seen is that it takes up more room. A 30-round magazine full of 6mm ARC rounds will be larger than a .223 magazine. I don’t really care about that. I’m not going to be carrying 20 magazines up and down hills in Afghanistan.

The 6mm ARC has more recoil than the .223, but not a whole lot more.

If it’s really what people say it is, it sounds perfect for me. I can get a new upper and some magazines, and I’ll be all set. I’ll be able to shoot deer, if I ever get around to it. It will be great for target shooting. It will work fine on coons and coyotes. It would probably tear them up pretty badly, but who cares if a coyote has a closed-casket funeral?

The big problem right now is that 6mm ARC ammunition is expensive, for no good reason. I can’t find any ammunition not made by Hornady, and Hornady charges a lot. I’ll bet Fiocchi will make an excellent version for less, but it hasn’t happened yet. If I got my upper, I would have to wait weeks or months to see ammunition below 90 cents per round.

If I do this, I can keep my .223 Wylde upper and use it to shoot up my stock of .223 in good time. I have some tiny V-Max cartridges on the way, and I think they would still be useful even in a post-6mm-ARC future.

I think the smart move is to get an 18″ barrel of very high quality and try 6mm ARC out on the berm.

I can also get a .204 Ruger barrel for my gun. That would be interesting. It’s far superior to .223 for shooting little pests. It would do everything I want .223 to do, better. If I had a .204 Ruger barrel, I could just sell my .223 ammo. Why would I want it? It’s slower and less accurate. It hits harder, but I would have 6mm ARC for that.

I ordered better .223 ammo 9 days ago, and UPS says it has been sitting in Salt Lake City for 4 days. Not normal. I feel like I can’t make a decision until I’ve tried this stuff.

If 6mm ARC and .204 Ruger work out, I can put two nice uppers or guns together and then forget all about the AR platform. I’ll have my AR experience, I’ll have the performance I want, and I won’t have a good excuse to buy anything else from the realm of Stoner.

The New Crazies Make me Miss the Old Crazies

Today I had fun mowing my yard in a T-shirt and a shoulder holster. And pants. Then I came indoors, made hot dogs, turned on Youtube, and found out Seattle had been taken over by leftists with AR15’s.

Okay.

By the way, something seems to have gone wrong with hot dogs. I am not a big hot dog eater, so I’m not an expert, but I’m pretty sure they used to be a lot bigger. I picked some up at the store the other day, and no matter which brand I looked at, they all resembled pink noodles. I grilled a couple of Ball Park bun-length hot dogs yesterday, and when I added the requisite ketchup, mustard, relish, and onions, the meat disappeared. I can only guess how awful it would have been had I gone to a full-throttle chili-cheese-slaw dog.

Let me digress from my digression. Smoked sausages are the best hot dogs. Unless maybe bratwurst counts. A Hillshire Farms smoked mystery meat cylinder is actually a lot thicker than hot dogs used to be, and it tastes a lot better, too.

To digress even further…”bun-length” hot dogs??? Isn’t this a blatant admission that most hot dogs are too short? It looks like they shrunk the dogs lengthwise even before they went after girth. Now they’re selling length back to us, like they’re doing us a favor.

This tyranny has to end.

Slob cooking tip: when grilling hot dogs for one, nuke them first. Then they’ll be nice and hot in the middle, and you can grill them a lot faster. Just burn the outsides a little, and you’re off to the races.

So. The exact thing I predicted has happened, except that the rioters are white, not black, and the authorities are in favor of it.

The other day I pointed out that there was a huge danger BLMtifa nuts would realize they could take over cities, and when that happened, we would be in big trouble. Not “we,” really, because I live on a farm surrounded by wonderful people and zero targets of leftist interest. But still.

I figured black rioters would be the culprits, because they have gigantic support from huge ghettos. It didn’t occur to me that white lesbians and man-bun-sporting baristas would beat them to it.

Seattle is a very white city. Less than 10% of the population is black. Compare New York with 25%. Even with the huge white and black exodus and Latin influx, Miami is almost 20% black. Chicago checks in at around 30%. Black people like cities. They just do. But they don’t like Seattle. Maybe it’s the rain.

The takeover includes City Hall, and one of the rioters’ demands is that the mayor, who looks like someone on the editorial staff at Cosmopolitan, resign, immediately. Not one to take this lying down, the mayor says…wait, she agrees completely. I think. In any case, she is on the news forcefully defending the people who put her in the street.

She may not have a good answer to the problem of displaced people and illegally seized property, but she has pinpointed the true source of all of Seattle’s ills. Of course, I refer to Donald Trump. Obvious?

Why do I call these people rioters, given that they don’t seem to be very violent at the moment? Look, if you take over a city using semiautomatic rifles, it’s a riot. It may be a nice, polite, Caucasian-heavy riot, but it’s a riot.

It’s a wonder to behold. I knew white liberals were suicidal, but it’s still amazing to see them self-actualize.

There are a lot of weird things about the takeover. When did leftists decide it was okay to carry AR15’s openly? When did they even decide it was okay for AR15’s to exist?

Part of me wants to cheer them on for buying rifles, because it will be hard for leftists to keep throttling our civil rights if they’re also carrying guns. But capturing cities is not really consistent with the intent of the non-trans cis men who wrote the Second Amendment.

Here’s something weird: leftist crazies can legally carry rifles in Seattle, which is insanely off to the left, but I can’t do it here in Florida, where we are constantly under attack for our “loose” firearm laws. How did that happen?

I’m allowed to carry openly in two places: my home and my business, which, sadly, is my home. It’s really one place. That’s all I get. And I can’t permit you to carry openly on my property, in case you’re wondering. Of course, I would let you do it, if you’re a friend, but that doesn’t mean you wouldn’t be committing a felony.

I saw a fascinating video by a guy in North Dakota. He calls himself Tiborasaurus Rex, if I spelled it right. Weird guy. I thought he was just another grumpy dad bod with various beefs he wanted to air, but I looked at some of his old videos, and I saw a young military-looking guy teaching viewers how to be snipers. Is it really the same guy? It’s terrible what a few years and some kids can do to you.

I’m kidding. You can’t spend your whole life living on the edge and looking like a recruiting poster. Sooner or later, you will probably find yourself wearing Crocs and driving a minivan.

This is why they always kill the girl before James Bond marries her.

Anyway, he apparently lives near a town called Dickson, which is across the state from–you guessed it–Minnesota. BLMtifa terrorists decided to send rioters to various small towns in North Dakota, perhaps because they thought they were good places to commit violent crimes and take selfies. Soft targets, they must have thought.

Oh, you didn’t hear about this on the news? Amazing!

The folks in Dickson knew they were coming, so they got out their guns and invited some bikers. When the BLMtifers showed up, they were greeted with a wall of barrels, more or less. The local mall was completely blanketed in parked Harleys. The people of Dickson must have realized that stealing TV’s was always high on the BLMtifa agenda. You can’t protest from the heart when you don’t have Ultra 4K on the wall in your mom’s basement.

According to Mr. Rex, the BLMtifers packed up and went home without damaging anything. Total buzzkill.

He says he sat at a table in a local restaurant and listened to BLMtifers planning violent crimes and thefts. He said they even planned rapes. He says they were intercepted outside a bank they intended to knock over. For the cause. Hey, lattes and American Apparel shirts aren’t free.

What he said was highly disturbing. It shows how dangerous and cruel these people are. They’re no joke. Well. They ARE a joke, but they’re still very dangerous.

What would have happened had Mr. Rex and his friends lived somewhere else? Exactly what happened somewhere else. There would have been looting, beatings, and fires. Fortunately, he and his friends had the full cooperation of the police, and with their help, they not only kept their town safe; they made a name for it so BLMtifa will be very afraid to return.

Seattle, now…that’s another story. It’s BLMtifa paradise. But it’s relatively safe because the population is mostly whites and Asians who don’t want police records to prevent them from getting jobs at the Genius Bar.

I’ll tell you what I wonder. How are small-town Floridians supposed to be safe if we get arrested when we show up to deter BLMtifa with rifles? How can we help the police if open carry is a crime? It’s illegal to carry a rifle openly, and a concealed weapons permit doesn’t cover rifles, so it’s also illegal to carry openly.

What have we learned?

1. BLMtifa now knows it can take over cities.
2. Leftists may respond to BLMtifa aggression by apologizing and asking what they can do to assist in their own destruction. This feeds back into observation 1.
3. Open carry is the immediate answer to BLMtifa threats in small towns.
4. Open carry won’t be possible in Florida unless the cops issue statements waiving arrest in exchange for help.

One city has fallen. How long will it take for the next one to surrender? Of course, you could say places like Compton, Overtown, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and Chicago’s south side already exist in a state of perennial surrender. I grant you that. But when will we see blatant, Seattle-style takeovers spread, with more violence?

I would love to be a fly on the wall, watching girls in short haircuts waving rifles telling Seattle…ites? What to do. They’ve declared their area to be a “cop-free zone.” Okay, so that means you can do anything you want there, right? Probably not, because people would be going in and taking their property back. So if the short-haired ladies are not permitting that…wait for it…aren’t they…the POLICE?

What if someone resists them? Will they shoot? Will they get out the cable ties and pepper spray? How do you restrain suspects–people accused of eating meat or whatever–without force? What if they kick you or punch you? What if they grab you by your blue mohawk, pull your head down, and rain blows on your skull? Do you just walk away? Do you knock them down and kneel on them for 9 minutes? One wonders.

There is a musical called Pippin. It’s about Charlemagne’s son. It’s not all that historically accurate, because Charlemagne’s father was named Pepin the Short, and while he did have a son named Pepin, the son who succeeded him was named Louis. But let’s go with it.

In the play, Pippin gets all soyed up and woke, and he finds his father’s harsh treatment of his subjects reprehensible. He murders him and takes over, eager to show how nice life is under an enlightened king who loves chick flicks and walks on the beach. Of course, he finds he has to be tough in order to prevent everyone from taking advantage of him. Things come to a head when he tells the leader of a besieging army he wants to begin a new day of peace, joy, hot yoga, and pointless sham recycling. The leader sends word that he agrees wholeheartedly and will depart. As soon as Pippin sends him his severed genitals.

At this point, he pulls the knife out of Charlemagne, who magically comes back to life to say, “I told you so.”

In a truly dark country with heartless, despotic rulers, change may be a good thing, but here in the US, every insurgent who gets anywhere will eventually have a Pippin moment. It’s like the first time you open your mouth and, to your horror, hear yourself say something your dad used to say.

Maybe I shouldn’t take such a lighthearted tone, but what else can I do?

Since I appear to be predicting the future successfully, appling a mystical gift known as the ability to perceive the obvious, I’ll say we should expect more takeovers with a more violent, race-tinged (i.e. hostile to whites, Jews, and Asians) flavor. If it doesn’t happen during the current wave of insanity, it will happen during the next one. I’m not sure the current one will end, though. It may be of of them “new normal” deals.

I foresee people using cyberspace to rule through mobs. We are not quite at the point where that would be a slam dunk. Maybe the bread needs to rise a little longer. Maybe America will succeed in getting the current crop of babies to take their pacifiers and nap for a bit, and we’ll see them return with more power when Skynet gets its fingers into all of us sufficiently deeply.

I could totally see Google and Facebook working to make that happen. I’m sure there are Google kids talking about it already. If I’m smart enough to see true technocracy on the horizon, people who actually work for social giants must have seen it years ago.

They saw it if they read my blog.

If you don’t know the Holy Spirit, you better introduce yourself. You’re already way late for boot camp. You can’t save yourself, and the government will either be unwilling or unable to help. You need to know someone who can surround you with favor and tell you where to move and what to do.

Ballistics Just Were not Complicated Enough

I’m finally able to carry a full-size automatic while wandering around my property. My Galco Miami Classic II holster arrived.

Until I started looking at it, I didn’t see that it was the same holster I already had for the subcompact Glock. I could just use one holster for both. They have different weights and lengths, however, and adjusting them is difficult, so I decided to have one set up for the Glock 20 and another for the Glock 29.

The Glock 20 is a far superior weapon. It holds almost 50% more ammunition, making it nearly 50% better. The added capacity is more than enough to make it much better than the smaller gun. It has the advantage of being somewhat more comfortable to hold, and it has a longer sight radius, but those things don’t mean nearly as much as 5 extra rounds per magazine.

The big drawback to the shoulder holster is that it has to be adjusted carefully in order to allow the gun to be drawn without a lot of yanking and dancing. It also requires a lot of breaking in before it can be trusted to release a weapon.

It will never compare to the $5 pocket holster I use with the subcompact. That thing lets the gun go instantly and reliably. But the shoulder holster gets things out of the way, and it holds two spare magazines. It also looks nice and could make a useful impression on potential intruders. Open carry is legal on my own land.

Now that the 29 has a Crimson Trace laser on the grip, the Miami Classic will not snap shut on it. The retention strap is obstructed by the laser. I have to decide whether the laser is really a good idea. It works beautifully, but it would require me to cut up my shoulder holster, and it bruises my thumb when I shoot more than a few rounds.

Do I really need it? The gun has night sights, and I’m not the kind of person who needs a lot of help with accuracy. It’s a nice tool, though, and what if I were in a situation where I couldn’t use my usual grip on the gun? That could happen. I might have to use my left hand or something. The laser would make it very easy to aim effectively.

I have some leatherworking skills. I could cut the holster to fit the laser without completely ruining the appearance.

I haven’t decided whether to put a Crimson Trace on the Glock 20.

I’ve been trying to figure my AR15 problem out. I’m just about sure yesterday’s terrible accuracy was not my fault, so the gun or the ammo has to be the problem.

A reader offered a helpful comment about barrel twist. A rifle barrel will turn a projectile 360° in a certain number of inches. Barrels are rated according to that number. For example, a 1:9 barrel has a one-in-nine-inch twist. Different projectiles need different twist rates. A big projectile needs a fast twist to give it a lot of spin, but a small projectile can have problems with too much spin.

What do “big” and “small” mean? I’m not sure. Traditionally, people have said heavy bullets need fast twists and light bullets need slow twists, but I’ve been reading a site that says length is what really matters. Longer bullets need more spin because they’re harder to stabilize. Heavier bullets are usually longer, so people think heavy bullets need more spin. This is the argument.

I don’t know what’s true. As a physicist, I would guess that length is what matters, because a long object will have mass far from its center of rotation, and that mass will have a large effect on rotational stability, so there has to be increased angular momentum (provided by spin) in order to fight any torques that come from that mass.

My barrel has a 1:9 twist, and the sort of bullet it’s made for is not clear. Different “experts” say different things. I saw a source that said it was fine for 55-to-68-grain bullets, but other sites disagree.

I was shooting 55-grain bullets when things went badly. I am guessing, but I don’t think a 1:9 twist is so far off it could account for shooting 5 MOA.

Of course, I am learning these things after spending money too quickly. I ordered a bunch of 40-grain cartridges for the gun days ago. After learning about twist, I was concerned that my non-returnable 40-grain bullets might have been a waste of money.

Not so. I have found out that a gun like mine with a 1:9 twist can shoot the 40-grain bullets I bought with incredible accuracy.

An old guy on Youtube bought the same ammunition and shot it through a gun with a 1:9 twist, and he shot four rounds that made holes that touched each other…at 200 yards. He had some flyers, too, but they were also extremely close to the four adjoining shots. He couldn’t figure out why cheap ammo with the wrong bullet weight worked so well for him.

If the bullets I bought won’t shoot, it won’t be because I have the wrong barrel twist.

I decided to get some 50-grain and 55-grain ammo of the same type, just to see what the story is. I won’t try smaller bullets because I read that really tiny bullets can fly apart and disappear when they spin too fast. They literally disintegrate in front of you while you shoot.

For anything up to the size of a coyote, 40-grain bullets are jim dandy, and light bullets recoil less, so I figured they were a good choice. Now I don’t know. It’s not like the maximum recoil from an AR15 is bothersome, and heavier bullets could be better for some things.

I don’t think any of these bullets are good for self-defense, because they do a subpar job of going deep into large creatures, but the gun isn’t intended for self-defense.

If I can’t get this gun to work, I will talk to the manufacturer. Maybe they’ll take a look at it and find a problem. I’m not too worried about it, because I always thought I was likely to replace the barrel. If it turns out the OEM barrel just isn’t that great, and it’s not bad enough for a warranty replacement, I’ll recrown it myself to see if I can improve the accuracy. After that, if it’s no better, I’ll get an aftermarket barrel and whatever AR15 tools I need to install it.

Sooner or later, we will see this gun shoot 1 MOA at 100 yards. That is for certain, God willing of course.

Learn from my Bad Example

God changes lives with supernatural revelation, and he has been very generous with me lately. He gave me a compound revelation this month involving my attitude.

He showed me that I need to be much more reluctant to complain. I’ve had a lot of bad experiences in cultures where people were pressured to bury their heads in the sand, and I have come to love exposing the truth, but I haven’t done a good job of separating exposure from pointless bellyaching or from reviling or ridiculing. Revealing the truth is very important, and it’s very important to do it in situations where it will destroy your popularity, but you can’t let yourself obsess on what is wrong or let it become an excuse for giving up too early.

It’s good to say, “I hear a noise coming from my front end, so I need to have my bearings checked.” It’s bad to say, “I hate this car. It’s always letting me down. Why can’t I ever have a car that works right? Other people have good cars. I can’t believe this is happening again. I’m so sick of this thing.”

You have to appreciate what you have and what happens to you.

Here is what God has shown me: you have to have what I call an immigrant/orphan/warrior attitude.

Consider immigrants who move the USA. I know many of them are curses to us. Many come filled with hostility toward us. Some perform acts of terrorism. Some expect us to mold ourselves to their toxic, backward cultures, which they themselves fled, instead of adapting themselves to our superior culture. Many come here out of pure selfishness. All those things are true, but I’m not suggesting we be like them in those ways. I’m suggesting we be like them in our appreciation of what we have.

I read an anecdote about a visitor from Russia. This person kept telling her hosts how wonderful the USSR was and how inferior America was. She could not shut up. Then there was a trip to an American supermarket in the winter. The critic looked around at the packed shelves and the fresh fruit and vegetables and started to cry.

That individual appreciated a blessing I have enjoyed every single day I’ve spent in America. I, on the other hand, feel deprived when my local store doesn’t have the exact cut of choice beef I want to buy or the right brand and variety of tomatoes for pizza.

Consider orphans. Many are hard to place, so they get stuck in orphanages for years, or they go from one foster family to another. They dream of having their own homes, with siblings and parents. The rest of us don’t feel much gratitude for situations older orphans pray for every night.

My family did me a lot of harm, but at least I had a family. My bills were paid, and we never had to live in a shelter or even an apartment. My mother was wonderful. I knew my grandparents. I knew my aunts, uncles, and cousins. Both of my parents left me inheritances. My family damaged me more than most white American families, but it also did me a great deal of good.

Think about warriors. When a warrior in a superior force goes into battle, and enemy soldiers start shooting at his position, he doesn’t say, “I am cursed. These people should have given up as soon as they saw us, but they’re trying to kill us anyway, and now I have to go through a miserable battle.” A warrior expects conflict. It’s what he trains for. He sees it as a normal obstacle he has to pass in order to get to victory.

The other day I bought a new stove. My old primitive stove was very hard to clean, and it only had 4 burners. I was reluctant to cook because it was so difficult to get the stove back in order afterward. I found a great induction cooktop at Home Depot for something like 45% off. I measured the existing stove, and while I couldn’t get at the cutout in the stone counter to measure it, I made a reasonable assumption: because appliances are standardized, a 36″ induction cooktop would fit in a cutout made for a 36″ conventional cooktop.

I got the old cooktop out, and I found that the cutout was 3/8″ too short. I had expected the switch to take about 30 minutes. Now I was looking at hiring someone or buying unfamiliar tools, making the new cuts myself, and enduring a long, messy job. I also learned that the manufacturer had not included some brackets for supporting the new stove in a stone counter. I’m talking about two small pieces of steel plus a tube of glue. Should cost about 10 bucks. In fact, these things should be included in the package with a stove that retails for $1800. I looked online, and the price for the “kit” was about $135.

I felt defeated, and that’s ridiculous. I knew it was ridiculous. I apologized to God even while I was feeling defeated. I rejected the feeling.

I said I knew the stove was going to fit. Victory was already mine. No doubt about it. I wasn’t experiencing defeat. I was just having a setback. I was blessed with an $1800 stove for which I paid about $1000, I didn’t have to use cash to get it, I got free delivery, I didn’t need help removing the old stove, I was sufficiently handy to know I was going to be able to get the cutout enlarged, I was putting it in a beautiful kitchen in a magnificent house in an extremely pleasant county in the United States of America…what possible excuse was there for feeling cursed and defeated?

I didn’t have a warrior attitude. I had a snowflake attitude. An Antifa/BLM attitude. I knew it. I hated it. I refused to continue in it. I asked God to help me.

I knew that on the other side of the work and the mess, a fantastic new stove was waiting. The new stove has a top which is a continuous sheet of glass. Cleaning it after a messy cooking session takes less than 5 minutes. It has 5 burners, one of which is gigantic, which is a nice feature. It’s much, much faster than gas, conventional, or radiant cooking. It won’t work with certain cookware, but I can get new things, and I have additional portable burners anyway. When I’m not cooking, the surface functions as temporary counter space.

God was blessing me like crazy. Feeling defeated and wronged was not just incorrect; it was offensive.

I made a terrible mess when I installed the cooktop, but a tradesman would have made the exact same mess. Instead of getting a new stove for $1800 plus maybe $500 in installation costs, I got it for $1000, no cash left my bank account, and I learned a lot.

Along the way, I found out I didn’t need the expensive tube of glue and sheet metal brackets.

The Bible promises us victory over and over. It doesn’t say we’ll never have to fight or that things will go exactly the way we want. Victory is not the same thing as lack of conflict. When we win wars decisively, we still have to fight, and we still lose people. No one with any common sense says that makes us losers.

Sometimes God has shown me what it’s like to deal with me and my bad attitude. I have been in situations where I’ve been in charge of people who were doing various things. If you have employees, or if you have hired people temporarily, you’ve been there. I have dealt with people who whined and complained. I have dealt with people who stood around conversing instead of working, while I, the one who was paying them, worked. I’ve dealt with people who were so slow and lazy, they were literally much slower than I would have been had I done things alone. I’ve experienced resentment from people I was paying. I felt I was being punished for giving them money.

When I was slaving away as an armorbearer at Miami’s Trinity Church, I worked a couple of Richie Wilkerson’s Rendezvous meetings at the Fillmore Theater on Miami Beach. People volunteered to help the armorbearers. We were there mostly to manage crowds. I had a lot of experience, and I was in a position of authority. A young black man was part of my team.

I set things up the way they were supposed to be, in cooperation with the other armorbearers. Then this young man decided he was in charge. He started moving cordons and changing the way traffic flowed. He started telling me how things were going to be set up, as though I had volunteered to work for him!

His ideas were inept and would have caused problems. I immediately moved things back, and I told him I was running the team. I said if he wanted to help us, he had to follow orders.

He got so mad, he walked off and quit. He could not understand that he we were not equals on the team. It was impossible to explain this concept, which 98% of human beings chosen at random would have understood without being told. No one on the team could figure him out.

I never interacted with him after that. I forgot his face. I don’t know what happened to him. Another young man from the same area had also volunteered, and he could not have been more helpful. He kept making sure he was doing what the team wanted him to do. He never complained. After the conference was over, we would always wave at each other in church and converse a little.

I’ve dealt with a lot of people who could not submit, honor, or appreciate. I have often shown similar attitudes toward God.

If someone is willing to pay you and advise you when he has other options, and you make him miserable, he’s going to limit what he does for you. It’s just not worth it when you have to be treated like you’re imposing. On the other hand, when people have a good attitude, it makes you grateful. It makes you want to do more for them and to be more closely involved with them.

Surely we punish God when we aren’t grateful and respectful, and surely he responds by holding back our blessings. Surely he must increase our blessings when we have better attitudes. I believe there are things I wanted which God kept from me, and now I believe he will provide those things because I will reward him instead of making him wish he had a better son to work with.

Here is something Jesus said:

A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.

Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?

And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:

And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.

When you’re push-starting a car, you don’t push forever. If it doesn’t start to run eventually, you quit pushing.

Every day, I need to see my blessings as though they were new. When I get in my car, I should feel as though I were driving a new car off a dealer’s lot. When I sit in my air-conditioned house, I should feel as though I had been living in a tent in insufferable heat all my life. When I eat and drink, I should feel as though I had just been rescued from a month in a lifeboat. I live in a world where billions of people don’t have the good things I have. I could easily be replaced with someone more grateful.

That’s what happened to the Jews. I’m not talking about replacement theology. They are still God’s chosen. But if you read the Bible, you will see that they got in trouble over and over for taking God’s blessings for granted, and in the end, most didn’t appreciate the greatest blessing of all: their messiah. So most of what he offered went to Gentiles. Now, of course, most Christians take God and his blessings for granted, so we’re in the same boat.

I believe this revelation is extremely powerful and that it will bring me things I couldn’t get before. I pray, and I have faith, but faith isn’t everything. How effective can faith for a result be if God knows you’re going to make him wish he had never granted your request?

I’m astounded when I look back and think of all the blessings I’ve spat on and ruined. My education is an example. I barely did anything in high school, but one of the world’s best universities sent me a letter, asking me to apply. When I was accepted and my parents paid my tuition and expenses without hesitation, I didn’t appreciate it at all. I behaved like a character from the movie Animal House. I thought the administration was my enemy. I thought drunkenness was cool. I made trouble.

I wish I could go through high school again. I went to the best school in Florida. I could have focused on math and science. I could have gone to MIT or Caltech. Even Columbia, the school that accepted me, was a top-notch STEM school.

I know I couldn’t have done much better as things were. I didn’t know God, and I truly was cursed. My family was a constant source of discouragement and pain. Things didn’t go well even when I did things right. But if I had known God and had a better attitude, I would have excelled.

I know people who were thrilled to be able to go to community college. I know people who were thrilled to go to state universities. I know people who have student loans. I had a full ride at one of the best Ivy League schools, and I resented it!

I can’t complain about mowing the yard. Most people don’t have a yard. I can’t complain about doing bookkeeping and taxes. Most people have no money to manage. It’s amazing to me that I ever complained about cleaning up after my pets. Who chose to buy them? How many people are there who would love to have two beautiful exotic birds who love them?

I have to remember that regardless of what happens while I’m here on Earth, I have victory. Under the worst circumstances imaginable, which are nothing like my actual circumstances, I would still be saved when I died. The rejection and problems I face here are like the heckling and reviling Cubans used to experience when they chose to move to America. People would spit on them and call them worms. The speed bumps I deal with are temporary and unimportant, and they precede blessings that will make me forget them.

I think my new outlook will improve my life tremendously, so I want to tell other people who make the same mistakes I did. I hope someone else can make the change earlier and have a better life than the one I’ve had.

Spiritual Blindness Pushed America to Communal Suicide

I am not doing a great job of avoiding reading the news. I’m doing a lot better than I was a week or two back, but I need to be more determined. I’m still reading a few things here and there.

Some of my friends are not helpful. They contact me with political messages, and they tell me about things that have happened in the outside world. Outside of my farm, I mean.

One of my friends told me there were cities where antichristians were striving to defund police forces. It sounded disgraceful, but I didn’t think it would amount to anything. Leftism is all about posing and pretending. I thought it was just antichristian leftists huffing and puffing for Facebook and Instagram, and I didn’t think there was any possibility that it would go anywhere.

Today, sadly, I read that it’s a very serious movement with considerable support.

What can I say about that? Imagine life near a city without police. Do I have to explain what a bad idea that is? It’s like trying to make people understand that setting themselves on fire is stupid. If it’s not obvious to you already, there is no way to make you understand it.

I didn’t understand how far gone Minnesota was. Americans tend to think of midwesterners as solid people with conservative morals, but that’s apparently far from the truth.

The friend who shared the story said he hoped the police would be defunded. He was strongly in favor of it. He wanted people to find out what life without police was like.

I marvel at the poor judgment of those who want cities without police, but I don’t want to see them get what they want. Essentially, they’re in favor of taking a problem normally found only in certain minority ghettos and extending it to entire counties. In ghettos, people can get away with murder and other violent crimes, not to mention property crimes, because the residents refuse to cooperate with the police and because the police are reluctant to respond in the first place. As a result, ghettos are full of bullies who get their way every day. This is what the defunders want for their cities, except it will be worse, because the police won’t exist at all.

What would happen in a city with no police? Would the governor bulk up the state police and send them to take over? Would the National Guard take over? I don’t even know if these things could be done legally.

It’s obvious that gangs would fill the vacuum. There is no point in pretending it’s debatable. They would exert much more power in cities, and they would do as much as they could to take over affluent suburbs. That’s what gangs do.

I got up this morning and started looking at homes in Tennessee. Florida is going to be a blue state soon, and even though I live in the reddest county in the state, the thought of having leftists take my firearms, plunder the wealth I need for my old age, and force me into a lifestyle in which I am on trial every day simply for being a white male Christian is too much. I don’t think I could stand it.

I don’t know a single person in Tennessee, unless you count an uncle who is about as close to me as you are. I can’t tell the good places from the bad. If God doesn’t guide me, I could end up in a place where I couldn’t be happy. I love northern Florida. I love my house and my farm. I love the people. But if I stay here, I’ll just be waiting for the waters to rise and drown me. When it happens, I’ll have to say I was warned.

I always feel frustrated when I think of friends and relatives who live in godless areas. I warn them about the future, but I don’t think many of them take me seriously. As long as things are tolerable this week, they think the places where they live are acceptable. They don’t really believe antichristians are going to take over and torment them. They’re inviting disaster for themselves and their children, and I believe stubbornness is the reason.

How can I criticize people who won’t listen, if I won’t listen?

For years, I’ve been saying America was going to collapse and be taken over by antichristians, but it’s still shocking to see it happen. It’s shocking that we could be so stupid. How can anyone take white privilege seriously and view it as a valid reason to persecute and censor? How can anyone think it makes sense to burn his own neighborhood? How can anyone be enraged to the point of murder by a handful of police-on-black homicides while feeling virtually nothing about the thousands of black-on-black murders which are committed every year? How can people not see how wrong they are?

If black lives matter, why aren’t the rioters enraged by the fact that people in their ranks have murdered multiple black people during the riots? How is killing innocent black people a valid form of pro-black protest?

How can so many people who are not black or Hispanic participate so zealously in their own slander and destruction? The rioters can’t be won over or placated. They’re not interested in peace or justice. They just want to hurt the rest of us. Kissing up to them doesn’t work. They’re attacking liberals all over the country, including journalists they know to be with sympathetic outlets.

They’re not mistaking their allies for enemies. They just don’t care. The riots aren’t about justice or logic. They’re driven by racism and envy. If you’re not black or Hispanic, or if you’re successful, they want to take what you have, hurt you physically, humiliate you, and kill you.

The Bible says God gives persistent sinners over to sin. He stops trying to talk them out of it. When he stops talking to them, they develop a type of insanity, believing good is evil and evil is good. How true that is.

It’s terrible to see the truth die in America. Human beings can’t be saved without the truth that comes from God. There is no other way to be helped. Without God’s truth, we go to hell, plain and simple, and hell grows inside us while we live, preparing us for the destination where we fit in so well.

If I leave and go to a safer place, it won’t mean I’ve located a haven where the antichristians will never rule. They’ll take Tennessee over, too. They’ll take over the entire world eventually. I think God is just telling me to move so I’ll have more years of peace and victory. With any luck, I’ll be dead before the fleas and leeches show up on my doorstep with authority from the government.

How will I move all my things? It would take a month just to box things up. Should I have a sale and go with very little? I don’t think so. I believe God has a purpose in my tools and firearms and so on. I don’t have much furniture, so that won’t be a big problem. I would call the Salvation Army to get my mother’s remaining bedroom furniture and my dad’s coffee tables. I don’t like those things anyway.

I thought God might provide a wife by now, but that has not happened. Not even close. Moving by myself would be difficult. On the other hand, I moved once with no help while caring for a dementia patient, so maybe I’m concerned about nothing.

I wish the world would change, but it never will. Fitting in is an impossibility and not to be desired.

I may have 30 more years left. Argh. Experiencing old age on this deteriorating planet is not something I look forward to. It’s daunting to think there is so much time left in my tour of duty. God has kept me safe, comfortable, and prosperous, though, and I assume he will continue to do so. Surely I will have a purpose that will make staying in this place worth it. I don’t have a choice, so I have to make the best of things.

Choose a Side While You Can

Generally, I don’t blog until after breakfast, but today I felt I should go straight to the keyboard, and I don’t feel like eating.

Sometimes God gives me words and phrases. There have been several occasions on which I felt God was telling me something about the future, and I turned out to be wrong, but as far as I can recall, the phrases I have heard have proven legitimate.

Last night I heard this: “AFTERBIRTH…AFTERBIRTH…AFTERBIRTH…AFTERBIRTH.” I heard the word many times.

There are only two races on earth: the childen of Satan and the children of God. The children of God will go on to live forever in love, peace, and invulnerability. The children of Satan will be discarded and burned, forgotten and unable to communicate with us in any way, because they have chosen to be afterbirth.

The earth is like God’s womb. It’s where he reproduces. Until God inseminates us with his Spirit, human beings are like unfertilized eggs. Those who are not inseminated or who don’t go to term are like miscarriages, afterbirth, and eggs that wash out with menstrual fluid. They are just by-products of reproduction.

All over America, we are seeing people who have chosen to become afterbirth, abusing others in our streets.

When we look at the news, we see higher-placed people who are also afterbirth, glorifying their own kind. The riots aren’t about police brutality or improving the lives of blacks and Hispanics. They’re about hatred for everyone else and a total lack of Holy Spirit guidance. They show how people act when they have no fathers to correct them. Many have no earthly fathers, and they certainly have no heavenly father. The children of God are growing. The others rot as though they had already died.

You have to step back from the fray and set your course for heaven. You’re not going to be here long, and the things you care about down here are generally worthless and often toxic. You have to set aside things like race and promotion. You should be headed for a place where real, lasting rewards have been prepared for you. If you knew you were about to be released from prison, would you care which pedophile or bomber got your bunk or your seat in the cafeteria?

What was done to George Floyd was very bad. The riots are much worse. What’s worse than the rioting is the response coming from many Americans: approval and encouragement. The response ensures that the bad behavior will increase. It also shows that Americans are willingly blind and deaf. They have given themselves over to idiocy, even though they know better. Thousands of years of building up morals and standards are being nullified. We are putting the wealth of our ancestors in piles, burning it, and dancing in celebration as though we had done something wonderful.

The insanity is obvious to anyone who isn’t supernaturally blinded. It’s a major disaster if one black man is harmed by the police, but it’s progress when numerous black people are killed and hurt by rioters or shot legally by police while rioting. That’s the attitude many Americans are taking, and it’s so irrational, there is no way to counter it with reason.

When your mind and heart are so closed to reason there is no point in communicating with you, you become like the people who were killed in the flood and the burning of Sodom. A point comes when the appropriate thing is to shut you out, replace you, and let you do what you want, even though it will ruin your earthly life and end with you burning forever in the fire of God’s anger.

Expect to lose people you think are on your side. I do. I think I might have lost my friend Travis had he lived to see this crisis, regardless of what I had done for him or how many prayer sessions we had shared. I may lose other black friends even if I support police reform. Jesus said we would be betrayed by those close to us. It’s a time of sifting. The test won’t select for people who have been nice to you or who go to church. It will save only those whom God has chosen and who are truly willing to hear the Holy Spirit. We will all be surprised to see who makes it and who doesn’t. People you are sure are solid will turn on you, and people you expected to fall will stay by your side.

I don’t feel depression. Maybe I sound depressed, but I’m not. I feel grief and dread. I feel grief for the hundreds of millions of people who are discarding themselves. It’s like watching people drown from a long distance. I can’t do anything for them, and I have to accept my own safety. I dread what’s in store for them. As for me, I expect joy, success, abundance, healing, love, and deliverance.

Call it holy privilege. All inheritance is privilege.

I have the feeling you get during the hours before a hurricane hits. If you’ve felt it, you know what I mean. I sense a stillness I know is temporary.

I’ve been praying for God to save anyone who can listen. I’ve been praying for him to expose what’s really happening, and to give victory to those who tell the truth. That’s all I can do.

It’s remarkable that so few people are pointing out that rioting is the wrong solution. Imagine how different things had been had we taken the sort of path intelligent adults who are not insane ordinarily take. There would be prayer meetings all over the nation, without segregation. There would be protests that truly were peaceful. America would be much more united. The movement would be huge. It would be successful, and there would be no backlash later. Instead, one part of the population is tormenting the rest of us for the sheer animal joy of causing us pain and destroying things other people built, and there is no way we can join them without being defiled.

What we are seeing is coercion, not persuasion. It’s happening on a national scale, and it’s happening on a small scale.

My friend Mike has a son who is a professional musician. He married a young woman who is half black. She was raised by white people in an area where she knew very few blacks. Now she’s all about white privilege, and she feels entitled to tell Mike what to think and do. She and her husband, whom Mike helps out financially, are telling Mike that if he doesn’t use his social media presence to support the rioters, they may not want their children, when they have them, to be exposed to him.

Mike’s brother was beaten by police, and he was paralyzed on one side. He died young, and according to Mike, the beating shortened his life. Mike is not in favor of police brutality. He’s just smart enough and sufficiently moral to object to rioting, gaslighting, and manipulation. He’s on the right side of the issue, but even if he were wrong, he should not have to put up with this display of gall, entitlement, and disrespect.

Mike is a Spirit-baptized Christian who prays in tongues. His son and daughter-in-law, who want to control him, are not. They’re leftists.

Mike has done nothing to invite this mistreatment. He’s a very warm person. He’s outgoing. He’s always counseling his friends and trying to help them. He was a great father. He sacrificed a lot for his sons after his wife abandoned them. He still does things like paying to fix his son’s brakes, even when his wife won’t let Mike do the work himself and insists on spending much more money having a repair shop do the same thing.

This kind of abuse is happening all over America. The stench of the ugliness must be filling God’s nostrils. He won’t subject us to it forever.

Obviously, we have to keep serving God and helping anyone who can be saved, but we have to be ready to lose most of the population of Earth. Every one of us will have to choose a side. A lot of people you know are going to go to hell, no matter what you do. You can’t let your devotion to individuals drag you down to eternal agony.

I got that written. Now I intend to enjoy the beautiful day God has given me in spite of myself.

Are we Done?

It’s surprising how hard it is to find a simple timeline of the end times, including the rapture. I am Googling today, and I haven’t found it yet.

The rapture is a real event. It has been foreshadowed clearly more than once. Noah and his family were lifted up above those who hated God. Lot was drawn out of Sodom before it was destroyed. Moses and the Hebrews were protected from the plagues of Egypt, and they were moved to a place of safety while their enemies drowned behind them. God does similar things over and over, and he expects us to notice and understand that there is a pattern he follows.

The Lord and his prophets gave us information so we would have a general idea when to expect the rapture. Certain events have to occur first. I’m trying to find out what those events were. The world is descending rapidly into unprecedented turmoil, and it seems to me, for various reasons, that it will be unsustainable. It won’t be like past challenges that left mankind standing. Because things are going so badly, and for other reasons, I’m wondering if the rapture is closer than we thought.

The end of the current age will lead into the tribulation, which will be a time of terrible suffering on earth. It will be as though the upper boundary of hell had been raised above the surface of the earth. Christians who are really on board with the Holy Spirit won’t be here to see it. Like Noah’s family, we will be extracted in advance.

Unfortunately, we will still suffer, because Jesus made it plain that we would be here long enough to experience terrible persecution. We will be murdered and imprisoned. We will be hated. We already see these things happening. It’s nothing new in the Muslim world, and it’s spreading to the US. We’re not being murdered for our faith very often, but we are being driven out of jobs and we are facing increased ostracism and reviling. Anti-Christian sentiment is now mainstream.

Powerful Christians suffer less. I can tell you that right now. I’ve seen it. God puts bubbles around people he has chosen. Weak Christians have less help and protection. They don’t listen, and their prayer lives are not good. They leave doors open.

My understanding of the way things work is that even a powerful Christian may be martyred, but that such a person’s suffering will ordinarily come toward the end of his life, over a relatively brief period. I don’t believe strong Christians can live in defeat for decades on end. It’s not consistent with God’s promises.

Paul suffered a lot, but he seems to have been an unusual case, and my feeling about Paul is that he didn’t always do the right thing. He appears to have been an angry, argumentative person, and he may have gotten ahead of the Holy Spirit and exposed himself to danger unnecessarily from time to time. We know he had a problem with pride, because he said God allowed him to have a thorn in his flesh to prevent him from being overly exalted.

We tend to think of great Biblical figures as perfect role models, but that’s not true. They were flawed.

The Bible says “the son of perdition” must be revealed before the rapture. Does that mean we can’t go until a single identifiable person becomes famous as the Antichrist?

Maybe not.

First of all, even if there is a single man who will be called the Antichrist, he’s just part of a bigger entity. Satan has a body of people who are controlled through their flesh because they aren’t Spirit-led. Satan, who is the real Beast, speaks and acts through this body. The voice of the mobs we are seeing now is the voice of the Beast, even though we don’t know of one man who can conclusively be called the Antichrist.

Second, the Bible says the son of perdition will be “revealed.” Does that mean we have to know the name and face of one person? God has shown me that the Beast is here, in the mob movement. Doesn’t that mean the son of perdition has been revealed? I got it by revelation. Revelation is what happens when something is revealed.

It’s interesting that Paul used the term “son of perdition,” because Judas was called “the son of perdition” in John 17:12.

Judas was a disciple. He probably believed Jesus was God. A lot of Christians think the Antichrist will be a Muslim or some kind of sorcerer, but the term “antichrist” actually comes from the discussion of Christians who turned against God because they didn’t listen to the Holy Spirit. The Bible talks of antichrists who “went out from us.”

Some people believe Judas did not want Jesus to be killed. They think he tried to manipulate him into overthrowing the Romans and defeating their puppets in the temple. The idea is that if Jesus were in trouble, he would have to use his power to crush the people who were against him. This may well be true.

God showed me that his human enemies don’t promote evil while calling it evil. They call it good. I use the term “alternative righteousness” to describe it. They claim they’re doing good when they promote homosexuality or they burn cities or martyr Christians for Islam.

Christians are supposed to do what the Holy Spirit tells them, and they are supposed to rely on God’s power. Instead, most of us strive in our flesh, doing what we wrongly think is right. We exalt ourselves. We brag about how hard we work for God and how much we suffer for him. We feel that our accomplishments, which are worthless, are our own, and that we should be admired. We rely on natural tools instead of supernatural power.

Jesus had a plan, and that plan was to be crucified in order to crush Satan. The Holy Spirit gave him this plan. Judas didn’t care about the Holy Spirit. He was a natural man, like a pope or a rabbi. It may well be that by betraying Jesus, he wanted to force him to advance the Judas plan. Get rid of the Romans, get rid of the priests, put the Jews back on top, and make Judas a wealthy and powerful ruler.

It would certainly explain why a man who knew Jesus was powerful would sell him to the priests.

Most Christians rely on natural tools, and they try to advance their own plans, so they are children of perdition and antichrists. Many, many of the rioters who are abusing us now identify strongly as Christians.

If the mob is part of the body of the Beast, and at least one Christian is saying so publicly, hasn’t the man of perdition been revealed?

In the Bible, “man” doesn’t necessarily mean one person. Paul used the term to describe the entire body of Christ. Look at Ephesians.

For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

“In himself” appears to mean “in the body of Christ,” or, to state the same thing another way, “in the group of people who are led by the Holy Spirit.”

If the Christ is one man and many people, how can the Antichrist not be one man and many people?

There is always symmetry in the supernatural.

Smug Christians like to sneer and say, “People have always said the end is near.” They’re not good at math or analyzing current trends. They’re asleep because they like to sleep. There are nearly 8 billion human beings now. The earth has a limited capacity, and we are filling it up. That has never happened before. Technology is destroying free will, and that has never been possible until now. Without free will, there is no reason for the current age to continue. Free will is essential in order for God’s work of separating the righteous from the wicked to continue.

I keep having the feeling that what I do in the natural doesn’t matter now. I keep feeling that I don’t have to take care of my earthly responsibilities because something is going to happen to make them unimportant. If you knew your house were going to burn down, you wouldn’t paint the kitchen or fix the roof. I keep wondering if the end, or at least my own end, is very close.

The mobs are divided. We have a violent, murderous mob on the left, and we have a carnal, civilized mob playing defense on the right. One mob behaves like a pack of animals, hurting even those who make it clear they side with them. The other mob thinks hard work, AR15’s, and voter turnout will save them. Neither mob hears from the Holy Spirit, who always brings agreement between those who listen to him. The Holy Spirit is the one who creates one new man.

People identify with colors, parties, and nations. We are supposed to identify with the body of Christ. We divide ourselves in accordance with trivial distinctions, and we don’t seek the only unity that works.

Patriotism has some usefulness, but I can’t see myself primarily as an American. I can’t think of myself as someone who has obligations to the white race, either. I can’t have conflicts. God has to be number one. Not many people feel this way. Right now in America, most black people are taught that their earthly race has to be the most important, most controlling thing in their lives, and that they have to believe what their leftist leaders tell them. Blacks are just like Jews. They have no freedom of thought or allegiance.

I’m not black or Jewish. I can belong to any political party I choose. I can believe Jesus is the Messiah without having my family and friends tell me I’m a Nazi. I can associate with most gentiles without worrying that I’ll be reviled for thinking for myself. If I were black or Jewish, I wouldn’t have any of this freedom. Blacks and Jews live in straitjackets, and so do many Hispanics.

Non-black, non-Hispanic gentiles have much more freedom than anyone else, but it isn’t helpful if we align ourselves primarily with anything other than the body of Christ.

Jesus said the end times would be marked by betrayal. How can our friends betray us if Christians aren’t vulnerable to delusion? If our enemies are against us, it’s not betrayal. It has to be people we loved and trusted. It has to mean weak Christians. I wonder how many black friends I’ll lose. I’ve already lost family members, and I have certainly been betrayed by preachers and the cult members who follow them.

All of us have to be ready to put the body of Christ before loved ones. You have to be prepared to drop people so they won’t pull you down and drown you.

I feel grief for America. I’m not unhappy, but I feel cut off from my country. Should I call it my former country? I feel separated from the people who will not make it in the rapture. There is nothing I can do for them except talk and pray. In the end, they have to save themselves by giving in. I can’t force that, and God won’t.

I am concerned that the grief I feel may actually be the grief of the Holy Spirit, warning me about the future. If so, then it’s well-founded, and things are worse than I thought.

Is there any way the rapture could be far off? Our population’s growth would have to stop. There could be a real plague, unlike coronavirus, but it seems improbable. We are very good at dealing with infectious diseases now, even when we can’t cure them. We might develop strict laws regarding who gets to reproduce. Forced abortion might make a move from China to the rest of the globe.

What about technology? Can we slow down the destruction of free will and privacy? I think this is impossible. Technology never goes backward. It’s like a fatal viral disease. Once you’ve got it, you can’t get rid of it or make it stop progressing.

Things aren’t proceeding linearly. They’re getting worse exponentially. Our decline is accelerating. It’s not a steady thing. How much faster will it be moving in a year?

Part of me hopes the rapture will come ASAP. The world is looking more and more like a dish of moldy food with a few bits that can still be cut out and eaten. Participating it is becoming very unrewarding. It would be nice to move on to something better. But the rapture will be followed by horrible suffering, and people I know will be here to feel it. The Bible says receiving salvation during the tribulation will be a terrible experience. It would be nicer for those who are not ready if they had more time under the current rules.

Let’s see where we are a month from now. If our cities still look like Mogadishu, it may be a sign that the end is very close.
