The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either — but right through every human heart — and through all human hearts.
― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits by many waters. With her the kings of the earth committed adultery, and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries.
… The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. The name written on her forehead was a mystery: Babylon the Great, the mother of prostitutes, and of the abominations of the earth.
– Revelation 17:1-5
I had been emotionally involved a few times with women with enough of a record of promiscuity to make me vaguely uneasy. It is difficult to put much value on something the lady has distributed all too generously. I have the feeling there is some mysterious quota, which varies with each woman. And whether she gives herself or sells herself, once she reaches her own number, once X pairs of hungry hands have been clamped rightly upon her rounded undersides, she suffers a sea change wherein her juices alter from honey to acid, her eyes change to glass, her heart becomes a stone, and her mouth a windy cave from whence, with each moisturous gasping, comes a tiny stink of death.
― MacDonald, John D. (1966). “Darker Than Amber”, Travis McGee series, Random House LLC, 2013, pgs 56-57
We live in an age of wizards and whores where souls are sold in the pursuit of material pleasures. Time-honored principles have been traded for profit and power as lawlessness intensifies.
The word “mystery” is defined as “something not understood or beyond understanding” or, in a religious sense: “truth that one can know only by revelation and cannot fully understand”. This would imply more than simply not knowing. A mystery can be that which exceeds human understanding.
There is a saying I’ve heard over and over in my life that has… for the most part… been stated by older men with whom I’ve been related and/or acquainted: “The older I get, the less I know”.
I can’t recall ever hearing a woman make that statement; perhaps because they know it all already (wink, wink). But, seriously, I speculate that assertion is made by men more often than women, because, when younger, we males tended to consider ourselves as invincible. However, over time, the experience of life engenders humility.
In my youth, I never would have predicted a doomsday scenario where vaccines would be used to simultaneously kill and maim the sheep while rendering the shepherds powerless or, worse, turning them into wolves.
The wolves are devouring the weakest of the herd, and they now gather for a final feast. They won’t be bargained with, because they have forfeited their very souls. There is nothing left within them to petition or persuade. Their eyes have turned to glass, their hearts have become stone, and they breathe death. They lurk in the shadows of “good intentions”, “following orders”, and plausible deniability and they are magically controlled by wizards that are safely ensconced high above the pack, out of reach; and behind armed security.
My 81-year-old mother-in-law suffered a stroke after Thanksgiving and my life has been hectic since. Like so many people I know, the wizard’s fearful spell caused her to trust Fauci, the experts, and Trump before she received two Moderna shots. She failed to heed the warnings of my wife and me and… within weeks of her second shot…. my wife took her mom to the emergency room on two separate occasions for nosebleeds that wouldn’t stop.
I would guess the shots caused her stroke but she had a stroke prior, in 2019. The first one diminished her vocabulary along with moderate memory loss but both afflictions appeared to accelerate after being vaccinated against Covid. Or, maybe it was merely the result of old age. How can one know for sure?
I suspect the ever-generated spike protein aggravates and augments the negative consequences of pre-existing conditions, but I can’t prove anything. She remains in skilled care.
My mother-in-law’s mother lived well into her nineties and refused to leave her farm in her dotage. My mother-in-law inherited the same farmwife stubbornness… I mean… independent spirit yet she may not be able to live on her farm, even with abundant family and medical assistance.
I always thought my mother-in-law would be an asset during the apocalypse. She has her allegorical “black belt” in all of the old ways: Canning, sewing, gardening, cooking, baking, etc. Although my wife acquired these as well, she is minus the extra decades of experience as a daily practitioner.
Growing old and failing physically can serve as a metaphor for a dying society: Just as aging organs revolt against the body via malfunction and decay, so does civilization descend into decadence and degeneration until the center no longer holds. Moreover, when systems break down, individual autonomy is lost as those in authority prioritize safety over liberty.
Just as my mother-in-law has lost autonomy as her physical body fails, so, too, will once-free people lose their liberty as civilization collapses into Central Bank Digital Currency, digital identity, the WHO Global Pandemic Treaty, and the United Nations’ Agenda 2030 mandates – all for the well-being of humanity, of course.
At this point, progress unfolds as a result of math; same as civilizations past. Although I understand the inevitabilities, it’s hard to know exactly what may happen next and when.
The older I get, the less I know.
For example, I can’t prove that a microwave “blue beam” set Lahaina on fire in Maui. Neither can I absolutely confirm that modern Israelis are actually of Khazarian stock… or if the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is still using the city of Jerusalem to chastise the nations in accordance with ancient prophecies.
I have my opinions but what good are they really? Who would change their mind anyway?
If falsehoods lead to metaphorical (and literal) prison bars and locked doors, death and destruction, then truth is the key to freedom. Perhaps that is why relativism reigns in modernity: because technology has facilitated the proliferation of specious propaganda and tyrannical censorship.
What is true? What is false?
Former CIA Director William J. Casey (1913-1987), during his first CIA staff meeting in 1981, is said to have stated the following:
“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete
when everything the American public believes is false.”
In pursuit of CIA objectives, perhaps it is possible Casey was acting on what French philosopher Voltaire had asserted two centuries earlier:
“Those who can make you believe absurdities,
can make you commit atrocities.”
A few months ago, I wrote an article speculating upon the Revelation of the Method (predictive programming). Now it appears a “cyber-attack” may be the next false thing (according to the Barack Obama-produced Netflix show “Leave the World Behind” )… and followed by civil war as is prognosticated in an upcoming 2024 film.
Although deception and tyranny are as old as time, the modern-day wizards appear to have grown bolder in usurping science and technology to spin their magic spells. However, even though war, slavery, and religious prophecies are as old as mankind, not all modern denouements are the result of illuminati voodoo.
During one Christmas season years ago, I recall seeing a film called “The Nativity Story”. There was one scene where Roman tax collectors were demanding the forfeiture of financial assets in a village while beating the plebeians mercilessly. The Roman soldiers showed no concern for natural rights and clearly embraced the unfairness of taxation without representation.
Surely, that movie scene has played out before in real life since forever. Therefore, in my opinion, not all narratives are facilitated via predictive programming. Some stories are just history and history repeats.
Furthermore, similar to Bible prophecies, the esoteric “Revelation of the Method” is usually not interpreted and understood until after foreshadowed events come to pass. For example, in the 2021 film “Dune”, at the 1:26:50-55 marks, a blue laser is shown beaming downward from the sky and igniting objects below in a city on fire.
Screenshot from the 2021 film “Dune”
For those unaware, some in the alternative media have speculated that Maui (and, previously, California) was targeted by a direct energy weapon using microwave technology. The theory may explain why some trees were left unharmed after the fire, while others were burning from the inside-out. A blue laser beam could also explain why blue items withstood the Maui fire even though online fact-checkers and the Associated Press have labeled all such claims as “debunked conspiracy”.
Regardless, of all the colors on the spectrum, why was the laser beam blue in the Dune movie? Why not green, or orange, or red? And, perhaps more importantly, what resistance movement can withstand invisible wizards who can call down blue fire from the sky?
People act on what they believe and that is how the truth sets people free… or… it’s how narratives wreck the world.
Mysteries exist in science and religion: The mysteries of God, the mysteries in physics, and in the mystery schools of Western esotericism.
And whether internet speculations are true or false, confusion and chaos reigns on earth; as the planet groans and earthquakes rumble in diverse places.
I have speculated before that all arguments are rooted in theology, one way, or another. Either the universe was created by a Creator, or Man molds reality as his own god, or everything occurs as the result of random mathematics. People observe, interpret, and decide. And lack of belief, is belief.
A few years ago, I posted an article referencing The Borg’s “five pillars”. Each pillar (which I considered as “circles” and visually compared to the 5 Olympic Rings) has been secretly under construction and designed to come together like puzzle pieces trapping the entire world suddenly… like a lasso, or a noose.
Now, it appears A.I. will be used online like DARPA robot dogs when the time comes. The wolves and wizards seek death and destruction. But they must eliminate or obscure truth first, because truth is life; it sets people free.
For how long will uncensored speech be found on the internet? And what percentage of online information is wrong currently – even in the alternative media?
Who can make war with the Beast? Aging Boomers?
Who will defeat The Borg’s wizards and whores? Millennials?
In my youth, I was surrounded by family and friends who were independent, decisive, and able to think in fresh ways.
But each progressive generation has respected authority more, cared less for privacy, blindly trusted technology, perceived value in arbitrary social justice, and naively embraced modernity with zero understanding of actual history.
And those are the good kids, the minority.
Math. It’s a b*tch.
I did my best with my offspring and I hope it’s enough. But I have my doubts. It is difficult to think beyond the Borg when you were born in it.
And what of the older generations? What do we believe?
I don’t think Jesus and the apostles gave each other gifts around a pine tree. Neither did the birth of the Christ Child occur on winter solstice. But, as a child, I remember watching Charlie Brown’s animated friend, Linus, explain the true meaning of Christmas by directly quoting from the Gospel of Luke:
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
– Luke 2:8-14 (KJV)
These verses are said to have fulfilled the predictions of the prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 9:6-7) who lived eight centuries before the Gospel of Luke was written.
Did historical events transpire that way or not? True? Or false?
Regardless of what the reader believes, I will tell you that my childhood memories of Christmas involved snowfall, sledding, family, food, love and laughter.
But did we always get along? Heck no.
As happens so often within families… especially during difficult times …. tempers flare, voices are raised, doors are slammed and phone calls are ended abruptly in frustration. This was often the case in my own family as my parents aged and my wife’s family is no different.
Even so, my wife achieved a concession last week in an ongoing point-of-contention with her brother. She believed it was the result of her standing strong on a particular issue involving her mom. And it was, indeed, a victory, but, in part, it was won by my behind-the-scenes clear and courteous communications with my brother-in-law regarding reality, choices, and consequences.
Blessed are the peacemakers.
That same week, I stood alone out near the machine shed on my mother-in-law’s farm. It was a 40-degree afternoon with zero wind and not one bird or insect could be heard. My wife was in the house and there was no sound except for my breathing in the crisp air. The silence penetrated my being.
Then it began to drizzle and I listened to the steady pattering of raindrops on my nylon jacket… and on the roofs of the outbuildings.
After sundown, my wife and I drove into town through the pitch-black rain specked with holiday lights, while a rural radio station played Christmas music.
She looked over at me and said: “I’m glad we’re together”. And I replied: “Me too.”
The next day, she and I were in the kitchen as she called her Mom’s rural phone company to clarify some services itemized on a bill. She was using the speakerphone when a live female from the phone company answered. Yes. The phone company representative actually answered. No “listen to the menu carefully because the menu options have changed” or “presione ocho para español”.
Then my wife was transferred to another lady who was very kind and helpful. At the end of the call, she told my wife that she would pray for my mother-in-law.
I immediately checked my status in the moment to confirm that we weren’t time-warped back into Norman Rockwell’s America.
Similarly, the nurses, CNA’s, the speech/physical/occupational therapists, and administrative staff at my mother-in-law’s medical facility have been nothing but kind, courteous, and professional; in spite being short-staffed and overworked.
One Saturday morning I teased a young CNA for yawning. I offered to get her a cup of coffee and she smiled before telling me she worked a 12-hour shift the day before. She wasn’t supposed to come in that morning, but she agreed to work four hours because her boss needed the help. She didn’t say she did it for the money. She said her boss needed the help.
As I have aged, I have developed a profound appreciation for how interconnected we are as humans; and, yet, I don’t fully understand how societies can work together in cohesion as much as they do – as if held together by unseen hands.
It is a mystery. And the older I get, the less I know.
All over the world, there are those who live according to eternal principles: Love, friendship, truth, compassion, honor, and a courteous respect for others and/or a higher power/ purpose.
Then, there are also those who remain self-serving in the pursuit of material pleasure and/or power.
The former ways, the old ways, sustain and celebrate life. Truth and tradition have stood the test of time and now shine in history. While the other path, also an old way, has delivered hell on earth. Certainly, this time will be no different.
Personally, I believe the wizards and whores have chosen wrong. They have wasted their lives. They have sold their souls.
In the thread of one of my recent articles, a commenter named CZ posted a quotation by the nineteenth-century English preacher C.H. Spurgeon:
Discernment is not knowing the difference between right and wrong.
It is knowing the difference between right and almost right.
Therefore, I will cast my metaphorical vote for peace while defending my natural rights… and the lives of kind-hearted people… by any means at my disposal, until my last breath.
What that will look like in the near future is anyone’s guess.
In the meantime, Merry Christmas.
The William Casey quote is apocryphal, coming from low-level staffer Barbara Honegger’s book.
Not credible in the least.
A blue laser from outer space makes no sense. Blue light is of shorter wavelength than the more common green and red lasers. The gases in the atmosphere scatter blue light much more than red or green light. This is why the sky looks blue – most of the blue visible wavelength “bounces” off the nitrogen, oxygen, and water vapor molecules and is scattered before it reaches the earth. This is why there are so few blue things in nature. Would be much more efficient energy-wise to use a red laser that doesn’t get scattered as much.
Exactly. Thank you, Ice.
I couldn’t post this in the right place above but suggest adding Jacques Ellul to your reading list. Programming isn’t only in politics.
So Uncola says that Lahaina was just a psyop. No dews?
P.S.- The DEW came from a plane not outer space.
I never said the DEW was blue, so no matter the DEW color, it won’t affect anything blue?
We iz all Smurfs now.
I’m of the opinion DEWs are real, but my point was to never stop speculating
So, you thank Ice as the “expert opinion” is that speculation or do you actually know for a fact and you should know the Lahaina DEW was inbound from a specially fitted plane which Ice should know since he is the expert voice on all that is DEW related.
Theil knows what color DEWS kill 2000 children in a afternoon. No mater the color, they are still just as dead.
Still wondering if no mater the color of the DEW, is there no effect on blue?
In my above article on the blue items/maui fire segment, I hyperlinked the demonstration vid that made the rounds on the alt net.
Looks pretty convincing to me… but sometimes seeing is believing and, other times, believing is seeing, ya know?
Yes, but that viral video which Admin even posted said, “blue DEWS don’t have any effect on the color blue”. Maybe Ice-9 knows if all DEWS are incapable of damaging anything that is blue or a certain shade of blue.
The dew ain’t BLue!
Hindew.
The moisture that collects on your hin.
There is no longer a mystery as to who the whore of Babylon in Revelation was in first century ancient near east history. Revelation self authenticates who it was. “the city where the Lord was crucified” That city is first century Jerusalem.
Wrong. No evil king ruled over every tribe, every tongue and every nation in AD 70. No unified culture, politics and religion on a global level under the antichrist. Antiochus Epiphanes sacrificed a pig on the altar but he nor the roman Titus promised peace before the destruction of Jerusalem. There was no 1,290 days from the time the temple sacrifices are set up until the abomination of desolation takes place. Plus no 10 kings in AD 70 that elected the antichrist. The mystery is bigger than you comprehend. Amillennialists and replacement theorists are primed to accept Project Blue Beam and the alien antichrist as the 2nd coming of Christ. Wake up and don’t get fooled. Research dual fulfillment of prophecy.
As an amillennialist, I remember Christ saying don’t believe them and that when He returns everyone will know it. We also believe Mathew 24 contains words pertaining to the question about 70 AD and eschatological words pertaining to that part of the question asked.
Times and seasons and the lesson of the fig tree. The fig tree in scripture represents Israel. The sons of Issachar were wise because the understood the times regarding Israel.

All light is also diffracted at a media interface. Like trying to spear a fish, you will miss if you strike the spear where the fish appears to be in the water. The upper atmosphere is a media interface and targeting from space would be impossible given the laser diffraction as it enters the atmosphere. See Huygens’ Principle.
We have same issue with geophysics. Processing geophysical data is much about understanding the diffraction of the energy inputs relative to the sensor locations. We get it wrong quite a bit.
Who said it comes from outer space?
“See Huygens’ Principle.”
Didn’t read it, over my head. Only as tall as poot’n & zelensky.
Laser would ‘scatter’, or the angle would change from line of sight?
Low. & to the Right…Depth dependent, To varying °’s. Pun intended.
<Prolly days in aggregate, shooting at various contrived sunken targets. Bow/Arrow, BB guns, .22’s…caliber & depth increased as I got older. Left-Handed, not sure that made a difference. Basically straight down from the local bridge for starters. Mostly Mud-Suckers & Carp.
Surely, trial/error or a program could compensate for ANY variable.
& THEN? An ol’ One 👁️’d guy told me about “Barkin’ Squirrel” with a .22…
Diffracted, perhaps, yes. But refraction is the principle you’re describing in the fish-spearing example (Snell’s Law). And you’ll successfully spear the fish if you are looking straight down at the water’s surface – because there is no refraction when the angle of incidence is 90 deg.
Just saying.
Why a blue surface has some resistance ? The blue wavelengths have already been weakened ?
The colors we see are the visible wavelengths of light that is reflected by surfaces. A blue object reflects the blue light and absorbs the other colors (i.e., wavelengths). A yellow object absorbs the blue laser and gets burned up. A black surface absorbs all visible wavelengths and gets burned up by all lasers.
But using this logic a white surface should be immune to all lasers as the surface reflects all wavelengths. I haven’t seen that tested – only the lasers used on colored objects. Don’t have a laser handy to test it.
My blue laser burns white paper
Experts are baffled
Yes, that’s why infra-red is used to project and transfer heat.
Jim I have only made one other comment and that was 2011 era. This article touches my soul. I’m 62 and the only change would be “ the older I get, the more I could give a shit”. The future is going to happen how it’s going to happen. It’s going to be a shit show and that’s that. Let’s all enjoys our families and the Christmas holiday.
Excellent post Doug. One of your very best… Chip
Unc, the Greatest Generation of which few still live, and for the most part Silents implicitly trusted figures of authority, especially government and MDs and all the generations that came afterwards have paid the price of becoming mere expendable test tube consumers and cannon fodder to the gorelords , because of this misplaced trust.
I think it a sad testament to these two generations that most went to and are going to their graves still believing that government really is for our greater good, and it should be, but never is or was.
The worm entered the apple though war; the noblest of endeavors, they say, which is drummed is drummed into us at birth. We have to win it, no matter the sacrifice, because they hate us for our freedom. I remember arguing with WWII vets about voting for George Herbert Walker Bush, a weasel like figure with a nasal whine, who literally exuded an aura evil when he approached a podium, but they couldn’t see it because he fought in the war, which made him the noblest of the noble, and then the Boomers turned the worm with Bill Clinton, because nice hair and glib personality . And, the age of personality politics was born and understandably so.
The Boomers were raised by Mother TV , plopped in front of a TV in their walker trainer and taught to consume whatever Mother TV was selling…the age of vaudeville, gave way to the shoot ’em up Western, which led to domestication of Beaver Cleaver , and suddenly out of nowhere, the Jeffersons were moving on up to socially acceptable feral culture, coupled with Norman Lear surreptitiously sprinkling homosexual characters thoughout every sitcom he produced, thus Boomers were subconsciously groomed to be tolerant of feral diversity and debauchery , without even on formal lesson in the psychology of subversion, a generation was totally subverted .
The Boomers were educated via entertainment, but post Boomer Brats have turned entertainment into a religion, wherein the electronic device is their god, and click and likes their blessings. The panic they experience when they are even temporally removed from their spiritual link to their omniscient ether god is real. They are lost. Their social, economic and mental health is in limbo and the re-connection must be made and fast, otherwise despair sets in and ego suffers debilitating isolation.
I am amazed at how the post Boomer Brats use their phones not only to remain in constant communication with the rest if the hive, but when mindlessly shopping , too . They chatting away at the self checkout line with their hive and then magically wave their phone across the screen and the debt is paid, or added to their credit account and they walk away nonchalantly like they just didn’t expose their entire digital soul to the All Seeing Eye…aka Deep Shekel.
Where am I going with this ? Hell, I don’t know. I’ve only had my second cup up coffee and after re-reading your excellent essay on what I imagine to be an esoteric dive into how we got to this inflection point in a spiritual disaster that leads directly in real life national death can mostly be explained by paraphrasing Hemingway, which is to say I ” gradually and then all of a sudden”.
I started writing this thinking about the shock of betrayal my father-in-law experienced when the IRS put a lien on his business and property, preventing him from working or selling. He was absolutely devasted that he sacrificed his mortal soul mass murdering German civilians in horrific firebombing raids flew out of Dijon France and the Beast repaid his unholy sacrifice with threatening seizure of everything he worked his entire life to own. I will never forget his pitiful mumblings upon learning of his dire financial predicament in a letter from the IRS. He spoke in a low trembling voice, ” I can’t believe they would do this to me”. I asked why he thought that and he answered ” I fought in the war”. And , there you the true nature of the Beast. The Beast has no loyalty , compassion or mercy for servant and subjugated alike. If all humanity could learns this simple lesson, the world would be a better place for us all.
Merry Christmas to you and yourn.
Flash- Most excellent comment, one of your best ever. Agree on every point.
Have a blessed holiday. 🙂
Thanks, prolly’ shoulda’ proof read it. I guess, in a nutshell, what I was trying to say is that the prophet, hero , nomad and artist do not exist separately …every generation , we are all those types and more.
Simply put, there is no ” great” and anyone who reads a lot of history will come to understand that each generation of the fallen leads the next deeper into the fiery pit using the ancient tools of Satan, lust, pride, wealth , war, entertainment, envy and revenge, but it won’t be a human that leads humanity back out of the pit . Outside of Divine intervention , we’re all screwed . You can count on that.
Blessings of peace and plenty to you and yourn as well.
I always read whatever you post, Flash, and there is much to unpack in your above comment.
Either people trust the government or they understand history.
As for me, I don’t trust the government because I understand history. But I’m a Gen X Nomad so that’s I roll…
These days, I roll mostly downhill, but I assume we Boomers are of the Prophet Archetype… made me laugh.
“Prophet generations are born after a great war or other crisis, during a time of rejuvenated community life and consensus around a new societal order. Prophets grow up as the increasingly indulged children of this post-crisis era, come of age as narcissistic young crusaders of a spiritual awakening, cultivate principle as moralistic midlifers, and emerge as wise elders guiding another historical crisis…. Their best-known historical leaders include …, Abraham Lincoln, Herbert Hoover, and Franklin Roosevelt. These were principled moralists, summoners of human sacrifice, and wagers of righteous wars… ”
Sheeit, this nation is definitely FUBARed. ”

Yes indeed. My generation I’m 82 and the boomers have screwed thing up pretty good. If Trump is the best we’ve got we are in trouble.
“The Greatest Generation” didn’t exactly help keep our governments to their proper legal limits. In fact, they handed us a system already set to deteriorate into tyranny. But of course the parents of the “Greatest Generation”, by accepting/allowing the perversion of our Constitution by the “progressives” (think FDR), had already screwed things up to a large degree.
I agree, Trump will be even more trouble if elected again, which is why, once again, I’ll vote for the Libertarian candidate. I can’t think of anything better to do.
Well, thought I recalled you as a Libertarian Party supporter.
Feliz Navidad
The party is not for me. Reloading bullets, yes. lol
Not really. I haven’t liked the Libertarian Party since the days when they ran Ron Paul as their candidate.
It’s libertarian principles that I like, and there is a chance they’ll run another good candidate.
Even if they nominate Elmer Fudd, I’ll choose him over Trump or Biden.
I thought that was you.
I tried the LP in 2010 after Debra Medina was eliminated from the Texas GOPher gubernatorial primaries. I did support Ron Paul as a GOPher both times but his name was all I “voted”. I attended an LP meetup group for Kathie Glass. I like Kathie ok but she lacked the charisma as in effectiveness of speeches to be governor. The LP platform is a grade A for fiscal responsibility in government spending and of course firearms ownership. I had to contemplate what the Bible tells me about homosexuality and murder ( abortion ) after learning that is part of the party’s platform, “pro choice” and open to LGBT stuff. I did “vote” Johnson in ’12 and that was it for me for the LP.
Chances are no one will suit me going forward and just as well. Tom Hoefling ( who?) in ’16 and ’20 and no idea he is running as an independent write in for ’24. If so…maybe one vote in ’24. Nah, I done. I don’t blame someone for voting Elmer Fudd though in this secular world if voting matters.
Quit killing the innocents in their mothers wombs. No one will stop that unfortunately. God will deal with everyone as time passes (including mouthy Texans).
I quit voting GOP since 2004. My perfect voting streak ended after the 2010 election. I voted Trump in 2016 but that was it. Voting is just a bad joke anymore. This time around the field is filled with clowns.
And the so called greatest generation was handed the mind set from Lincolns communist usurpation of our law.
The generations of the Reformation, the Enlightenment and the Age of Reason led a part of the world into a much better future, the most beneficial being the creation of the United States under a Constitution that strictly limited government ans sternly tasked it with protecting individual rights.I believe that took divine intervention.
The generations of REA lead Christians from the light into the darkness of debt servitude , debauchery and spiritual death. .They were all money-lender psysops. You’re historical tardation is wider than I imagined.
muh capitalismmm…reeee
Philip II: (1527-1598)
William Thomas Walsh
“It did not occur to the kings that if the money-lenders ever got
power enough, if they ever got from under the public-spirited
repression of the Church, they would destroy their own masters.
Kings were not generally as far-sighted as money-changers, and
much less so than priests. This is not to deny that clerics sometimes
condoned usury and profited by it, or that some kings repressed it.
Human affairs are never so simple as that. But there was a line of
cleavage: the Church on one side hostile to usury, the kings
compelled to make use of it on the other.
As the moral influence of the Church was weakened in the
political and economic spheres, in consequence of a series of
calamities for which she was not to blame—the Black Death, the
papal exile at Avignon, the Great Schism, the return of paganism
with the Renaissance—usury began to accumulate wealth and to
organize its influence. With canny insight it threw its influence, by
and large, against the power of Church and State, supporting now
one, now the other, until, by a see-saw process, it succeeded in
weakening both.
It early identified itself with the forces of heresy in religion and
liberalism in politics, until Protestantism at last gave money-lending a certificate of respectability, until a Lord Bacon could write a serious defense of it, and Harrison (in Holinshed) must chronicle the capitulation of the new Protestant England to “usury, a trade brought in by the Jews, but now perfectly practised almost by every
Christian, and so commonly that he is accompted but for a fool that
doth lend his money for nothing.”5 ”

The rules were precise and invariable. Money attracted money,
accumulating always in the same places, going by preference to the
scoundrelly and the mediocre. When, by an inscrutable exception,
it heaped up in the coffers of a rich man who was not a miser nor
a murderer, it stood idle, incapable of resolving itself into a force
for good, however charitable the hands which fain would
administer it. One would say it was angry at having got into the
wrong box and avenged itself by going into voluntary paralysis
when possessed by one who was neither a sharper nor an ass.
It acted still more strangely when by some extraordinary
chance it strayed into the home of a poor man. Immediately it
defiled the clean, debauched the chaste, and, acting simultaneously
on the body and the soul, it insinuated into its possessor a base
selfishness, an ignoble pride; it suggested that he spend for
himself alone; it made the humble man a boor, the generous man
a skinflint. In one second it changed every habit, revolutionized
every idea, metamorphosed the most deeply rooted passions.
It was the instigator and vigilant accomplice of all the
important sins. If it permitted one of its detainers to forget
himself and bestow a boon it awakened hatred in the recipient, it
replaced avarice with ingratitude and re-established equilibrium so
that the account might balance and not one sin of commission be
wanting.
But it reached its real height of monstrosity when, concealing
its identity under an assumed name, it entitled itself capital. Then
its action was not limited to individual incitation to theft and
murder but extended to the entire human race. With one word
capital decided monopolies, erected banks, cornered necessities,
and, if it wished, caused thousands of human beings to starve to
death.

Sorry, no, that was the “progressives” who ruined everything
Michael Hoffmann has a great book on the history of usury. He calls it what it is.
You paint an interesting alternative reality, but so much of what you say is wrong…
That my parents generation was happy to have the war (WWII) over and get on with their lives is true, and they for the most part got on with their lives by working, and saving, and investing, and respecting the law
That living, working and raising a family (as well as lack of interest and a trust in the institutions of our governments to protect our rights made them too willing to accept changes in how our governments were operating, and mostly they noticed too late- and what could they do anyway?
So, I think, they got snookered.
Anyway, my life as a young Boomer was filled with kids being raised to believe in work, and savings, and investment and respecting the law.
Certainly some, in their college years, were lured by the siren song of community/fraternity/social justice, as are many in every generation. . It is only the few who cynically seek power over others and wealth in order (they convince themselves) to “help all of humanity” who become a problem, and they especially became a problem by deciding to infiltrate and control all our governments, the media, and the education system. Yes, and the law schools and courts too.
Now they pretty much do. I doubt many (if any) of them actually still believe in socialism or communism, but they do see it’s efficacy in gaining and retaining power.
And yes, war is terrible, but it is mainly those who start wars, not those who merely fight them, who “sacrifice their mortal souls”.
Sorry bubba, but the big picture involves more than….I’m not like that…reeee.
Good that you kept your head down and accumulated the shekels while the fires of hell raged around you… Maybe those shekels will carry you across the river of debased filth your parent’s generation and those that came before allowed to flood the land. May your shekels give you peace, love and comfort before the lights go out.

It isn’t/wasn’t just me, it was the majority of my generation, at least in America.
Unfortunately, the communists were organized, clever, and patient.
As a youngster, I was the dependent of a USAF member and found myself in Germany in the late 50s (57-59). That long after The War, I witnessed German citizens going through the American garbage cans for food and resalable items.
For some reason this graphic by Dietrich Bonhoeffer reminded me of the 1965 song, “I Was Not A Nazi Polka”. It’s the denial, the “looking the other way”.
Heroes….
Could be lack of testosterone and/or they’re gay, bi, nothing or afraid they might be and afraid of almost everything – which is my bet. (online games, boy outings). Sheesh.
Maybe they’re only 14. I get the woman shaming as there is some truth there too but ‘boys’ have their own problems.
Just another division thing.
Faggotry is more than ” just another division thing”. It is a vile sickness in need of a spiritual and social reckoning.
What is it to me what idiots do to ruin their continence?
If the gay pop goes up?
Investing in adult diapers is a guaranteed win!
A lot to think about, Doug. Admin publishes a lot of stuff and yours among others is worth reading more than once. It’s hard for me to get that much in one reading. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Dear Dougula,
I had to interrupt my reading of your story for no reason other than wanting to intuit the change I felt in your cadence. You are still sucking knowlege from the neck of curiosity to invigorate your explorations with measured reason, but something seems to have changed.
I enjoy writing an I enjoy writers. I can know them long after they are gone, as well as I know anyone.
Your writing has become lyrical, a tempo tempered by love, tolerance and keen insight.
Bravo!
May the blessings be, to you and yours,
DoubleD
Who Are These People?
Maybe they will STFU for a few days.
Texans are known to be mouthy. They weren’t always like that…
BTW, I wouldn’t open a hot link from you with a ten foot pole.
Texans and …
I intended to post the story like this:
Trump blasts New Hampshire poll as a ‘scam’ after it shows Haley within 4 points of him
BTW , an ace is an ace, a spade a spade. One of victimhood, one of victimhood.
True brilliance … although much of it was painful in a lot of respects, it reeked of truth AND goodness …
My favorite line … repeated a number of times …
“The older I get, the less I know”
In my view, a huge nod at HUMILITY … The late 50’s me knows a hell of a lot more than the ‘know it all’ 25 year old me … but realize that whatever I do know is a speck of sand in the grand scheme of things … and SOOOO much more than what I don’t know.
God Bless and Merry Christmas!!
First off, the title was so off-putting I admit I read very little of it.
It reeks of complacency, the mind-virus which coincided with the fall of man and the loss of his magical powers, the Abrahamic religions of the “jew”….. bastardized stolen pagan celebrations of the equinox aside.
Rejoice, the end is nigh..

^^A fucking dipshit nonessential blog commenter posting on article it didn’t read and whining about complacency, the mind virus, and joos. ^^
Classic.
Read end of article/not looking for monies ect.
Just wants the word out!
Before the most High killed all our lesser gods , we wuz human sacrificing, people flesh consuming, child molesters and sheeit….reeee.
You are correct flash Yahweh did kill all the lesser gods in ad70. He told them to prepare to die like men. And He did kill them all including the devil, satan, symyaza. Today humans still do the same things, (child sacrifice abortion) that those lesser gods taught them thousands of years ago. Humans dont need devils and demons to be horribly evil. We possess the Kingdom. We have just farmed out the day to day operations to evil people while we play instead of run the kingdom we have been given. We fight not against evil wicked spirits in high places, we fight against the man in the mirror.
the fall of man and the loss of his magical powers
I’ve never known man had “magical powers”. Only Christ as man.
I think it was Adam who fell from grace, thus losing whatever magical powers he had in the Garden of Eden…
Anyway, didn’t Jesus say the miracles he accomplished were not his, but God’s working through him?
But of course and but of course God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit. Jesus was certainly humble. Actually miracles performed were not “magical”. “Magic” is to do with paganism.
I don’t think Jesus knew about Trinitarian Doctrine…
Anyway, if you raise someone from the dead by a miracle, you are Godly, and if you raise someone from the dead by magic, you’re a pagan?
Beautiful story, Doug. One word for you….. equanimity. It’s not that we don’t know, it’s that we rise above right/wrong/good/bad. It’s what Jesus meant when he advised us not to judge.
When we give something our attention, good or bad, it gets bigger. That’s a law of the universe.
You tell us where our attention should lie……
“Then it began to drizzle and I listened to the steady pattering of raindrops on my nylon jacket… and on the roofs of the outbuildings.”
Beautiful.
Happy Christmas to you all
Doug nailed it and you just glued it down. That was the alpha and omega, the point and the takeaway of this Christmas parable.
Respect and admiration to you both.
Hard to describe, i refer to it as “nice quiet peaceful life” your own presence brings it, how am i to act?
Hits the mark. Excellent observations. Merry Christmas!
That John D. MacDonald quote from “Darker Than Amber” really took me back and I knew it at a glance. One wonders what what MacDonald would have Travis say about todays world.
“and, yet, I don’t fully understand how societies can work together in cohesion as much as they do – as if held together by unseen hands.” I recently read analysis by someone knowledgeable who thought that our complex world should fall apart yet it doesn’t, his explanation: there’s an unseen force keeping it all together and functioning-
You’ll never understand anything if you don’t overcome the 2 weapons of the mesmerizing (lack of focus, lack of awareness) mainstream media: Fear and Guilt – both of which are the weapons of the demiurge. In this upside-down inverted world (which makes it easy to discern the truth, but few seem to care, “they died as they came…” said a great Indian sage.
How many will give me a tiresome oft-repeated label for posting a wretched truth (the truth is always wretched, since we live in a simalcrum for some pure truth read the Moksha Gita)… Labeling folks … it turns off the mind… another great weapon of “theirs”.

The advanced Dark Age of this present Time-cycle is the reign of the Jew — of the negative element; of the reverser of eternal values for the sake of “human” ones, and, finally, for that of his own, selfish interests; the reign of the “destroyer of culture,” as Adolf Hitler so rightly pointed out; of the age-old “ferment of disintegration.” It is natural that “ferments of disintegration” should become more and more active — more and more alive — as a Time-cycle nears its end.
