Finally!  In the first hour of his show today, Glenn Beck finally accepted someone who is trying to tell the world that the problem is not ‘radical’ Muslims, it is the doctrine of Islam, itself.  Beck started his show by praising an English Atheist as “the bravest man in the world.”  What makes him the bravest man in the world?  Well, read Beck’s post and watch the video: Continue reading “TRUTH: Islam Cannot be Reformed” →

Words and phrases describe or trigger thoughts and beliefs in our minds.  Thoughts, beliefs, conceptualizations from our knowledge based in education, learning and experiences.  Words trigger all kinds of good or bad responses and feelings.  For example, one could use the phrase a “polar wind” instead of a “north wind.”  A “north wind” brings to mind “chilly” or “cold” weather requiring a windbreaker or “hoodie”.  However a “polar wind” brings images of snow, ice, freezing temperatures that require a parka with boots and gloves.

I was thinking about labels and trying to think of a new term I could use to describe people who oppose individual rights and liberty for others.  While I was thinking about this, I remembered the many people who have — in the past — objected to being ‘labeled.’  Sadly, these people do not understand that, without labels, communication is impossible.  Every word you are reading is a label.  Every word you speak is a label.  In fact, every hand gesture you make is a label.    You see, we seldom bother to think past the surface, so we are seldom conscious of the fact that form and function are what define; words are just descriptive labels we assign to represent those forms and function.  This is how labels make communication possible.  In their most basic form, labels are just symbols that convey commonly understood concepts or ideas. But there are rules governing the proper use of labels and labels only work when people use them according to these rules.  When people reject these rules and act as though they are free to make up whatever rules they wish, while we may still be using the same labels, communication breaks down.  This is what has been happening to us for some time now.  It is just another form of lawlessness, and lawlessness always leads to destruction and/or tyranny.

I had a comment from a reader claiming that their filter warned them that this blog is unsafe.  If you ever get such a warning, I assure you, it has nothing to do with me or anything on my end.  Rather, I would suspect that the warning applies to the religious and/or political content on this page.  I am aware that some governments have started doing this.  In America, our government doesn’t have to do it: the majority of internet companies, providers and browsers are already of like mind, so they add the warnings without any law being needed.  Now, the person who left this comment did not use a screen name, so I marked their post as SPAM.  Still, I wanted to make sure I addressed the accusation — in case others out there have encountered something similar.

I went to see the latest Hobbit movie with my family today.  As we drove home, I started thinking about the sacrifices made by the characters in the movie, and the motivation behind them.  Then, shortly after we got home, my wife told me that she had read where Clint Eastwood has apparently came out and said American Sniper and Letters from Iwo Jima are both supposed to be anti-war movies.  Now I realize that — at first — it may not seem like The Battle of Five Armies and Eastwood’s anti-war movies might have anything in common, but when they are taken together, they remind us of a powerful truth — a truth that is essential to the survival of every culture, but also to mankind in general.  Sadly, much of the Western world has not forgotten this truth, it has consciously rejected it and, unless we wake to our mistake, the consequences are inevitable.

I had to step out of a ‘debate’ over gun control today.  I have gotten better at doing this.  I still cannot handle irrational and intellectually dishonest people, but at least I have learned to step away from them.  However, I learned something very important thanks to this ‘debate.’  Maybe ‘learned’ is not the best word, as I have known about and its connection to helping tyrants rise to power for a while.  What made this discussion different is how clearly I saw the problem, and how well I understood how and why it works.  This time, I came face-to-face with the primary factor needed to establish tyranny.

This may be a short post, but I hope you will understand the magnitude and scope of what it means for America (and the Western world in general).  You may not have heard, or even care, but the media is going after the New England Patriots football team over alleged rules violations concerning the air pressure in the balls they used in last week’s game.  There have been calls for their coach to be fired and even jailed.  In one interview, a reporter openly questioned the coach’s character to his face.  All of this concern is over something as trivial as an accusation that a team broke a rule in a football game.  Yet, these same media people who want to throw someone in jail for breaking a rule — not a law, a rule — these same people don’t give a second thought to the President of the United States not only breaking the law, but publicly boasting about it.  Now, ask yourself, what sort of society can continue when it does not care about its leaders breaking the supreme law of the land, but makes a national crisis out of an allegation over a rule in a game?  Or more importantly, what does it say about us, as individuals?  Continue reading “A Sure Sign of Social Decay” →

Progressives (American Liberals), Fascists, Communists, Marxists  and Socialists all stress the State over the individual.  So, for the sake of discussion, I will refer to these groups as Statists.  Islam also stresses the collective over the individual.  If I remember correctly, the Islamic term for the collective is Umma.  Now, you may have already noticed that Statists and Islam both stress the collective over the individual, but this is a given.  I assume everyone who is paying attention already understands this.  No, I want to call your attention to another similarity between these groups, and it is a similarity that — if any one of these groups succeeds — must end in tyranny for the entire human race.

Our President can’t seem to call what happened in France today a terrorist attack.  Well, this may come as a surprise to some, but I agree with him.  It was not a terrorist attack, and neither was the Fort Hood shooting or even the 9/11 attack.  They are all acts of war — a holy war!  This is not my ‘opinion:’ it is a matter of fact.  I know it is a fact because I know what Muhammad said to his followers.  Muhammad started and defined Islam, so he is the ultimate — and in this case — soul authority on Islam and Muhammad commanded holy war until there is nothing left but Islam.  By definition, that means we have been in a state of holy war with Islam since before Muhammad died.  Unless we wake to this fact and start treating it as what it is, we will loose this war.  Unfortunately, too many people would rather accept the lies they are told by our leaders, media and Muslims.  So, I have taken the time to put together everything a rational person needs to decide whether or not I am telling the truth, and it all comes directly from Muhammad or ‘official’ Islamic holy texts.

The Republican vote to return Boehner as Speaker of the House yesterday reminded me of a question a friend of mine asked me.  She wanted to know what sources I trust to get my news.  On the surface, these two things might not seem related, but they are.  And it is in how they are related that I finally figured out how to answer her.  So, for L, and anyone else who might be interested in how we can determine who and what to trust when we live in a world of deception, here are my thoughts.  I hope they help.

On this, the day we celebrate The Savior’s birth, I thought I might try to answer one of the most often cited objections to the Judeo/Christian faith: that there is only one way to God.  I do not claim that I can ‘prove’ any of what follows, nor am I trying to imply that we can reason our way to accept any of it.  We are saved by faith and faith alone, and only faith can affirm the Truth of what I am about to say.  However, that having been said, there are rational reasons for why there should be only one way to come into God’s presence, and why that One Way is Jesus, Christ.  If you will give me a few moments of your time, I might be able to help you see things from a different perspective and — if the Holy Spirit wills it — it may even help you see the Truth.

[NOTE: this one is long, but it is also important and complicated, so I took the time to make my case as best I could.  If you stay with it, I believe it may help you see the issues a bit more clearly.  If not…  Well, in that case, you either don’t care, or you are part of the problem — as I once was (and may still be)]

I am just going to assume that the majority of us can agree that racism is wrong, but I wonder whether or not we can agree that there are two types of racism, and that government should only be involved in one of them?  I got these two types of racism from a respected friend.  They are ‘institutional’ racism, where prejudice and discrimination based on race are built into a society’s laws; and ‘personal’ racism, where that same prejudice and discrimination based on race is a part of a persona’s character.  There is a proper role for government in the first type of racism (‘institutional‘), but there is absolutely no role for government or force in the second.  This is because the second type of racism (‘personal‘) is a heart issue, and any time people start using government to force a change of heart, we have crossed the line of playing God.  Then, to make this situation even more confusing, we need to understand that things we sometimes think are the result of racism are actually due to another form of bigotry that has nothing to do with race at all: cultural bigotry.  We get confused over the difference here because we equate race with culture, but they are not the same and I hope you’ll let me tell you a little story to illustrate the difference.

Are you Pro TEA Party or Pro Tyranny, Slavery/Indentured Servitude, Lawlessness and Licentiousness?  Yes, I understand that it is fallacious to argue “You’re either for me or against me”  — except when there are only two sides to an issue.  You can either be for liberty or control; for the law or lawlessness; for slavery or servitude; for morality of licentiousness.  You cannot be ‘neutral’ on these issues.  There is no “I support the law and lawlessness at the same time.”  By definition, such a position is lawlessness — especially when we are discussing Natural Law (as we are now).  So, when it comes to the TEA Party agenda, which are you: for them, or for Tyranny, Slavery, Lawlessness and Licentiousness?  Think I am wrong?  Then read this post and then tell me if you still think I’m wrong.

Like my post on ‘Tolerance vs. Acceptance,’ this is another post where it is necessary to read carefully and think through the point(s) I am trying to make because, as in the other post, we are dealing with a force that is actively trying to change society by manipulating language.  The concept is easy: if you can control the language, you can control what and how people think.  Do not doubt that this is the thinking behind the confusion in our language today.  I can show you the people who said that this is exactly what they wanted to do and how they intended to do it: to direct human evolution by manipulating the language.  And those people are the founders of what we now call the Liberal/Progressive movement.  They are largely responsible for many of today believing that ‘justice’ and ‘fairness’ are the same thing.  They are not, and we need to understand the difference between the two concepts these words represent.

NOTE: Let me start with a confession: I am about the last person who should be writing this post.  That said, and while I still have a long way to go, I have recently learned to spot and admit to my own hypocrisy.  So please, understand that I write from the position of a guilty man.

Once again, I am writing in response to my favorite talk radio host (I’ll call him GB for short).  I honestly love this man.  Had it not been for him, this nation would still be ignorant of the political forces that are trying to destroy it from within, and I would have never learned to see my own failings.  I have nothing but respect for him in this regard.  However, I have something against him, and it is based in his own words.

NOTE: This is one of the most important yet difficult posts in this series.  I implore you, please, read it carefully as the distinction I am going to try to explain is at the heart of many of our society’s problems.

Tolerance is defined as ‘acceptance,’ but this is  a perversion of the original meaning of tolerance.  Tolerance is not the same as acceptance, but I fear that the majority of people in our society do not understand the difference.  In fact, if all we look at is the modern dictionary, then we would most likely determine that I am wrong.  Fortunately, we have more than the modern dictionary to show us how our PC culture has changed our language.

It is common place to hear people talk about loving each other.  The majority of them seem to think that this is the answer to the majority of our problems, and I would tend to agree with them.  After all, as a Christian, I am commanded to love my neighbor — and my enemy!  But this is where I believe most people in our society miss the point.  They do not understand what the Bible means when it tells us to love each other as ourselves because they do not know about or understand the different types of love mentioned in the bible.

I have no idea how to explain the mood I am in to you.  I am writing to warn you against someone many of us know and trust and who you may have even come to love.  I love him, but I cannot trust him — not anymore.  He has been saying things that have deeply trouble my Spirit.  I know what he is teaching people is wrong, but I have been wrestling with how to warn you about this man without sounding like I am attacking him.  I thought about not writing this at all.  I know that I am an imperfect messenger and that I could do more harm than good.  But I have also felt the weight of the Lord’s hand pressing on me today and I know that He will not give me rest until I write this post.  So it is with the confidence of knowing that I am not the author but merely the instrument by which this message is being written that I bring this warning to you: “Beware that your hearts are not deceived, and that you do not turn away and serve other gods and worship them.” (Deut 11:16).  It was Christ, Himself, Who warned us that there will be ravenous wolves who will enter the flock seeking to destroy it, and that they will come dressed in sheep’s clothing and bearing messages of peace [and I would add love].   Now I am asked to warn you that the people who are most effective at deceiving us are often the people whom we hold in highest regard.

I want to ask you to think back over the past few years.  Try to remember how many times you have seen organized violence employed on a massive scale.  I am going to ask you to reject the media’s claim that it has been ‘spontaneous.’  It hasn’t.  It is well known that it was all planned: from Occupy Wall Street to the Arab Spring.  All of it was ‘organized’ by violent revolutionaries, and the violence is used as part of their formula for toppling governments.  This is because the model works.  It was how Russia fell to Lenin, and how Hitler tried to take over Germany — the first time.  The idea is, if you can create enough hatred within society, then cause it to just break out into social unrest, then others will ‘stand up’ and the existing government can be brought down.  This is when the revolutionary believes he can step in and ‘direct’ the ‘rebuilding’ of the nation he envisions.  Unfortunately, history shows is never really works out the way the people think it will.  The reason this is important is because it is being used against us in America — again! Yes, I said again! Continue reading “AGENDAS: The Role of Violence in the Revolutionary’s Plan” →

It would appear that the Gruber story is no longer a concern for anyone.  Well, I haven’t forgotten it.  In fact, I’m going to add it to my list of things for which I am thankful this week.  I have tried to explain to whoever would listen that these people have been open and honest about what they believe, what they want to do and how they plan to do it.  I’ve even told people where to go to find their declarations.  But they usually declare their intentions in academic settings and in technical writings that are not easily accessed by the average person — until now.  Gruber changed all of this.  I simply cannot think of another example where everything I have tried to explain the past few years is so clearly illustrated, and yet, many people — even many who should know better — still do not see it.  So, at the risk of sounding arrogant, allow me to walk us through everything Gruber has told us this month.
