I call this insanity for a simple reason: history has condemned socialism. No matter how many times it is tried, it has always failed. It always will. Socialism cannot work for a simple reason: it contradicts Natural Law. Yet, no matter how much clear and irrefutable evidence is presented, there are people who insist that socialism is the ideal. These people insist that the only reason it has not worked is because it has never been tried by ‘the right people.’ The implication here is that all those before were not ‘smart enough’ to make socialism work, but the current round of advocates are. And there is the insanity. These people are no smarter than anyone who came before them. In fact, evidence suggests they may be less intelligent. They are certainly less wise. But then, socialism is about one thing and one thing only: control of other people. Continue reading “INSANITY IN THE HEADLINES: The Persistent Delusion that Socialism can be made to Function”

TRUTH: Anti-Christ is a Spirit or ‘Type,’ not just a Person
For many years, I lived calling myself a Christian and thinking I was following Christ’s commands when I really wasn’t./ It wasn’t until I actually started to read and study Scripture and chase after God for His understanding that I started to realize how many things I had believed that were wrong. Two of the things that I believed and which are not entirely Scriptural were that I am not supposed to judge people and that there is only one Anti-Christ. Neither is true – not in the sense most Christians believe. But this is how Satan works: not through obvious acts, but through subtle deception and twisting of God’s word and by just keeping us from knowing the truth. This is how I came to understand that anti-Christ is actually a spirit and that it has a ‘type.’ And this is how I came to learn that Scripture teaches us we are supposed to judge actions so that we can tell those who are anti-Christ from God’s people. Still, I do not have any desire to lead anyone astray, so I urge you to consider what I have to say in this post, but to do so in accordance with 1 Thessalonians 5:21-22: Continue reading “TRUTH: Anti-Christ is a Spirit or ‘Type,’ not just a Person”
TRUTH: Not Everyone Calling Themselves a Christian Is
This post is intended for both Christians and non-Christians alike, and it is about a very important issue that needs to be clearly understood. When Obama calls himself a Christian, we need to look at his actions rather than take him at his word. And this is not my ‘opinion,’ but the word of God. Here are just a few of the passages from Scripture that speak directly to this point: Continue reading “TRUTH: Not Everyone Calling Themselves a Christian Is”
INSANITY IN THE HEADLINES: The Perils of Pride and Self-Delusion
As I continue to study the Progressive movement and its many ideological cousins, I have noticed something that seems to be common to the followers in every branch of its family tree. They all suffer from a total lack of humility. What’s more, this lack of humility seems to be connected to an assumption that they are smarter than the average person and that this gives them a ‘superior’ understanding of things. They then assume that, because they are smarter and have a better understanding, they have a moral obligation to save society from itself – even if it has to be done against the will of the people. After all, the people are too stupid to know what is best for them. Now, on the surface, this is enough to really anger those who actually are smarter but who are humble enough not to assume they have some duty to rule the lives of other people. But when you look closer at the source of this self-imposed delusion, it is actually a sad thing because you realize that the majority of these people are actually scared, lacking in self-esteem and desperately seeking approval from the world. They just react to their insecurity in a way that – historically – tends to lead to tyranny and mass murder. Here’s a story that illustrates my point: Continue reading “INSANITY IN THE HEADLINES: The Perils of Pride and Self-Delusion”
INSANITY IN THE HEADLINES: How an otherwise ‘Good’ People come to accept Blatant Lies from their Government
I was watching a tape of O’Reilly’s interview with Obama before the Super Bowl and I was struck by the Presidents parsing of words and out-right lying about the facts. In this day and age of video and audio and the Internet, I can’t believe anyone would have the audacity to tell such bold faced lies. But then it hit me; I’ve seen this pattern before: Continue reading “INSANITY IN THE HEADLINES: How an otherwise ‘Good’ People come to accept Blatant Lies from their Government”
THE ROAD TO SERFDOM: In Pictures
I have been trying to explain the process by which a republic is toppled and dictators come to power for some time now. I keep stressing the need to understand the principles that are in play during this process so we will be able to see the different ways in which they manifest from nation to nation. This is important because the people who exploit these principles study the process for taking over a government. They know they have to tailor the processes to the society they are trying to take over. So, where the villain in one nation might be Jews, it could be ‘the rich’ or ‘Conservatives’ in another nation. And where the ‘crisis’ that is used to justify central planning and public sacrifice might be a war in one nation, in another, it could be something like economic depression or global warming. This was all explained in great detail in a book titled “The Road to Serfdom,” by economist, F. A. Hayek. Sadly, too few Americans will bother to read this prophetic book, so I have found a link that might help you get the picture. But first, put yourself in the frame of mind where you are looking to understand the principles in play and not the specific way those principles are being applied. Then, click on the link below and read the cartoons. Continue reading “THE ROAD TO SERFDOM: In Pictures”
TRUTH: Romans 13 does not apply to the American Revolution
I just posted two blog entries about the Declaration of Independence and the American Revolution on The Road to Concord. They are, THE RULE OF LAW: Putting the Declaration back where It belongs and THE RULE OF LAW: The Declaration of Independence and American Revolution were not Acts of Lawlessness. Now, because I realize there are many Christians who have been told Romans 13 forbids any form of revolt, I want to address Romans 13 and explain why it does not apply to the Declaration of Independence and American Revolution. Continue reading “TRUTH: Romans 13 does not apply to the American Revolution”
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Carrol Quigley, the ‘New World Order’ and their Connections to Modern Politics
In the movie, The Matrix, there is a scene where the protagonist, Neo, is offered a choice. He could take a blue pill, in which case, he would fall asleep and wake up back in the fantasy world that had been created to control humanity. Or he could take the red pill, in which case, he would forever see things the way they truly are. The blue pill offered an easier life, while the red pill guaranteed struggle but also a chance for true freedom. This is the choice we all have to make. The world in which we live is not as it appears, and this is not conspiracy. The signs are there, you just need to know what you are looking for and where to look for them. This fantasy world is especially true of our political and economic systems. None of it is what it appears to be, and I believe the majority of Americans know it. They sense things are not right, but they also cling to the illusion because they can’t find the courage to face what lies behind the curtain. I chose the red pill, and while I may not be seeing it all in perfect clarity, I now see things closer to the way they are. Now I am offering you the chance to see behind the curtain as well. If you want to remain ignorant and happy, take the blue pill and do not read this post. But if you want to know more of the truth, take the red pill and keep reading. Continue reading “THE BIGGER PICTURE: Carrol Quigley, the ‘New World Order’ and their Connections to Modern Politics”
HISTORY: Comparing Kristallnacht to the Occupy Campaign
Recently, venture Capitalist, Tom Perkins, made a comparison between the recent ‘Occupy’ campaign and the Kristallnacht during the NAZI rise to power in 1930’s Germany. Pressure was immediately brought to bear on him for making the comparison and he has since issued an apology. But Perkins wasn’t wrong. Not only should he not have apologized for the comment, he should have pointed out that all the pressure brought to bear on him for having made it was also reminiscent of NAZI tactics in the 1930’s – because it is exactly how they operated. What is in play here is an attempt to keep Americans ignorant about history so that they will not recognize when it is repeating before their very eyes. So, here’s what you need to know. Continue reading “HISTORY: Comparing Kristallnacht to the Occupy Campaign”
THE PROGRESSIVE LEXICON: “Progress” = a Slow Coup – without the Violence
Do you know why Progressives called themselves ‘Progressives?’ Well, first, you need to understand that they are Marxist radicals who want to change America into a Socialist State. Then you need to understand that they knew they couldn’t get Americans to vote for their plan if they were open and honest about it. But they also knew that Americans are enamored with the idea of ‘progress.’ So they renounced the sudden, violent revolution most Marxists embrace and chose to work slowly, from within the system, changing it into a Socialist State a little at a time. In other words, they would conduct a slow, ‘Progressive’ revolution. This way, Americans would think they meant something entirely different when they said they wanted ‘Progress’ and the nation would be more likely to embrace them and their agenda. And that is exactly why they called themselves Progressives. Here, look at the definition of the word for yourself: Continue reading “THE PROGRESSIVE LEXICON: “Progress” = a Slow Coup – without the Violence”
AGENDAS: Eight Points to Taking over America
Saul Alinsky wrote a book called “Rules for Radicals.” Since that time, many Leftists in this country have used it as a ‘how to’ book for building political power. These people have made it their life’s work to study how to bring down a nation, but they have never bothered to study how to actually run one. This is why they appear incompetent: because they do not know how to operate the day-to-day functions of government. But it is a mistake to think of these people as incompetent because their goal is not to run the government, but to destroy it – or, failing that, to change it from within. In many ways, they should be thought of as some science fiction parasite that takes over a host body. Those who believe in the violent revolution are like Alien: where the new government suddenly bursts forth from the old. But those who believe in “progressive” revolution are more like a parasite that infects the host into some other organism – sort of like a Zombie virus. Either way, both camps are actually very good at destroying the government (or social engineering). You just have to understand their check points to see how successful.

TYRANNY IN THE HEADLINES: Obama Daring Congress to Stop His Imperial Designs
Using references to 1930’s Germany and the NAZI rise to power is not hate, it is a very accurate comparison of history to modern America. If you value your individual rights and liberty more than your modern comforts, then you need to WAKE UP! We have a tyrant in the White House, and willing accomplices in Congress and the Courts. It is time to take local control of what is left of this nation. People, learn your history. We are Germany and we are deep into the 1930’s. And yes, I am directly comparing Obama to Adolf Hitler. He is employing the very same methods Hitler used and Obama is using them for the very same purposes: to seize control of the nation for his and his masters’ personal desires. But there is more: Obama is openly telling us what he is doing – exactly the same way Hitler told the world what he was going to do. Here, read it for yourself. The proof is everywhere for those who have the courage to recognize the truth for what it is: Continue reading “TYRANNY IN THE HEADLINES: Obama Daring Congress to Stop His Imperial Designs”
LESSONS IN APPLIED LOGIC: Bill Maher’s Attacks on God are Irrational (‘Un-Scientific’)
This post is intended for those who might be inclined to believe there is some reason behind the ‘accusations’ Bill Maher levels against God. Whether you believe or not – or maybe you are trying to figure it out – you need to understand that Maher is making an irrational assertion. There is no logic behind it at all, and I hope I can help you see this. That way, whether it affects your faith or not, at least you won’t make a decisions based on the madness of a man who believes he is actually on the side of reason. Here is the latest story I a long string of self-serving diatribes dealing with Bill Maher mocking God: Continue reading “LESSONS IN APPLIED LOGIC: Bill Maher’s Attacks on God are Irrational (‘Un-Scientific’)”
POUNDING HOME THE POINT: Following Up on the New ‘Jewish Question’
One of the biggest complaints I hear from people who object to my posts is that I exaggerate too much. That and they do not like my continued references to NAZI Germany in relation to modern America. Well, that’s too bad for them because I am not exaggerating and the references to 1930’s Germany are appropriate. This nation is currently well down the same road the Germans traveled in the 1930’s and it doesn’t do any good to ignore or deny this fact. Case in point: I recently wrote a post that compared the American Left’s attack on ‘Conservatism’ with the German attack on the Jews, AGENDAS: Just Replace the ‘Jewish Question’ with the ‘Conservative Question’. Now, if you happen o be one of those who thinks this is ‘over the top,’ or ‘doesn’t apply,’ I have a story ripped from the headlines just this week that you might want to think about a little bit: Continue reading “POUNDING HOME THE POINT: Following Up on the New ‘Jewish Question’”
AGENDAS: ‘Science’ claims Social Conservatives are Mentally Disturbed
The mentality that lead Germany to accept Hitler’s ‘final solution’ to the ‘Jewish problem’ has never left the minds of those who consider themselves to be the elite within Western Civilization. It just morphed into another form (this is how evil always operates, and that’s because it cannot survive in the light of day). Today, this mentality thrives in our society, but then, it is only fitting that it should do so since the Germans got the idea for the Holocaust from the American Eugenics movement. The only thing that has changed is that, today, they no longer seek to eliminate races, but political ideologies. Instead of Jews, today, the boogey man is ‘conservatism.’ Continue reading “AGENDAS: ‘Science’ claims Social Conservatives are Mentally Disturbed”
TRUTH: Christians who accept this Lie Disobey Christ’s Command
This is another post intended mostly for Christians. It is also a partial answer to a question/request from one of the people who have attended the Christian Apologetics class I teach at my church. This post deals with one of many lies that the Church has accepted which have largely served to make the Church ineffective in its work for Christ. In this particular case, the lie is that the rightful place for our faith is in church and nowhere else. This is one of Satan’s most effective lies because it is 100% un-Scriptural! Here is the story that prompted this post: Continue reading “TRUTH: Christians who accept this Lie Disobey Christ’s Command”
THE RULE OF LAW: Ignoring & Excusing Treason
WARNING: many people will take offense at this post – and that’s the point! If you take offense at what is nothing more than a call to uphold the highest law of the land – the U.S. Constitution – then you have renounced the rule of law. If you see that the law has been broken but you are too afraid to call to uphold it because of the color of the criminal’s skin, then you have renounced the rule of law. And if you tell people who want to uphold the law they should not run for office because they offend popular sentiment, you have renounced the rule of law. And when the majority in a society have renounced the rule of law, then what is left for the righteous to do? So, here’s the story: Continue reading “THE RULE OF LAW: Ignoring & Excusing Treason”
DEFENDING THE LANGUAGE: Definition of ‘Bigot’ & ‘Tolerate’ Reveal Hypocrisy
This post is an excellent example of a deliberate attempt to change society by changing the language. In this case, they are trying to change the way we look at certain behaviors and beliefs by changing the definitions of the words we use to discuss these behaviors and beliefs. We are all aware of this ongoing attempt to change society by controlling what we can say and how we can say it. We call it ‘political correctness,’ but it is nothing more than a manifestation of the Progressive belief that language controls thought, and thus, controlling language can control society. And this is one of the primary reasons I place so much emphasis on language, especially definitions: because, if we do not know what words mean, we will not be able to recognize when we are being manipulated by those who are trying to control what those words mean. So, let’s look at two of the words that are being changes before our very eyes: ‘bigot’ and ‘tolerate.’ Continue reading “DEFENDING THE LANGUAGE: Definition of ‘Bigot’ & ‘Tolerate’ Reveal Hypocrisy”

AGENDAS: Just Replace the ‘Jewish Question’ with the ‘Conservative Question’
If you do not know history, and you do not know how to reason, then you cannot recognize the patterns in history when you see them starting to repeat. Instead of being able to see that a principle can manifest in many different ways, you will be prone to looking at the different ways it manifests itself and determine that they have nothing in common with the past. Thus, you will totally miss the principle in lay. This is why, when those who know history look back on it, they see the same patterns repeating over and over again. This is why we are missing the warning signs today. Continue reading “AGENDAS: Just Replace the ‘Jewish Question’ with the ‘Conservative Question’”
