The Thunberg Phenomenon

Even if Greta Thunberg, child activist, even now likened by some activists to Joan of Arc or Jesus returned Himself, even if she is correct about global warming being man made and ongoing, she is acting in a way that is the height of irresponsibility.

She is on record as saying that we should be panicking as if our house were on fire, because it is

I have been in a few fire drills, but thank God I have never been in any real fires.

What do the fire wardens say?

"Move quickly and quietly to your nearest designated exit. Do not run. DO NOT PANIC."

Panic has people screaming hysterically and running aimlessly, killing each other in the stampede.

If a person shouts "FIRE" in a crowded theatre panic will ensue. People WILL likely die, even if there were no fire. And if there were no fire that person shouting so as to initiate the panic would be criminally liable; and if there were fire a stampede from said panic is still not a rational manner to respond. Otherwise, I might ask, why are fire drills the way they are, if panic is not only necessary but desirable?

Panic is the enemy of rational response to even a real disaster.

I repeat: to spread panic even in the name of the real threat ios the height of irresponsibility.

Greta Thunberg is on record as saying herself that she has severe mental problems : despair, depression   selective mutism  and refusing to eat for long periods.

A mind given to such extremes of despair is not given to balance or nuance.

But she never put her self forward. She  is a pawn of various interests who, in complete cynical disregard for the welfare of a child who is immature for her 16 years - she looks 12 -  think that an argument that has no traction will become credible if put in the mouth of said disabled child.

It is vile child abuse of the most cynical and brutal kind.

Her parents and handlers should be liable to criminal  charges, and the child herself ,  Greta Thunberg should be removed from the public arena before further damage is done to her, for I understand that autistic children of all degrees - and asbergers is a lesser degree of autism - need peace , quiet, regular routine and a controlled environment.

As for the issue itself, that of Catastrophic Man Made Global Warming, that is to be debated soberly with recourse to evidence, fact, logic and free and open  disclosure of all information and data by all scientists involved.

A society so bereft of reason to as to listen to a disabled child whose disability is mental is in a parlous state and will fall if that madness continues.

I have not addressed the issue itself here. That will come later, if I deem it worth the effort

Good Christians, Good Muslims

Good Christians read their Bibles, believe their Bibles and do what it says

Good Muslims read their Korans, believe their Korans and do what it says.

So what is the difference?

It is clearly what the  respective books command

Are murderous people who name Christ good Christians? Absolutely not.

Are murderous people who shout Allahu Akbar while killing what they call unbelievers good Muslims?

Go do some study and find out.

In times like this it is utterly imperative for people to study this matter.

To those who say I might be or am inciting hatred i  say this:

since when is studying a text in a scholarly manner and encouraging the same  an incitement to anything other than eye strain and the attendant ills of a sedentary life?

Don't trust your politicians who are intent on virtue signalling.

If Islam itself permits telling lies in its service you cannot trust Muslims either. So you must go to their text  to see if it does in fact permit telling lies in its service

Any real religion especially if it has a holy Book, is determined by the doctrines in its writings, and not by the lives of those who profess to follow it.

If we are lazy in this matter we could very well pay a terrible price in this matter.

Go and study.

While you can

A First Post on nationalism and globalism

I regard globalism as a great and terrible evil.

I posted the following on a blog site which applauded nationalism as a virtue,  But . .

 . . . I do not agree that nationalism, touted as the remedy for such  is a virtue. I am well aware that God set up the nations, but he did so as recorded in the Tower of Babel event ; to keep man in separated groups lest his energies be pooled and unspeakable evil come about.

At best nationalism is a pragmatic strategy on the part of the Living God in the face of human sin. It is a lesser evil.

Why? The nations - all of them - rage against God and devise a vain thing (Psalm 2). I have never seen a patriot who was not an idolator; and no they do not love God, not when their love for their nation still has them treat their neighbour - the poor of their nations - with contempt. Besides if the nations are so good why are they in such a state of perpetual war such that some foolish minds hope to abolish war by abolish the nations? War is in our bones, not in our political constitutions

And let us consider that the story of the so called Good Samaritan the Samaritan in question did a good deed to someone his own people loathed and despised; and the feeling between Jews and Samaritans was mutual. Such mercy is not the hallmark of a patriot.

I am not a patriot. I act as a good citizen only because God commands me not to discredit the Gospel by bad behaviour, but my home is not this earth, for I am a citizen of heaven and a sojourner on this earth

Let us also grant that the Globalists are correct on the evils nationalism has spawned. The 20th century is full of the wreckage it produced. But the Globalists, in reaction to this undeniable fact want to go lurching like a drunkard blindly into something infinitely worse.

Globalism is of the devil, but the two evils here are not equal, for globalism is much, much worse.

But as we men are all evil we can only appeal to another idolatry (nationalism) to oppose an idolatry (Globalism).

Certainly Bergoglio - i will not dignify him with the papal name he arrogated to himself - has denied the Christian faith on more than one occasion.

I will let the mad frenzy of the nations continue to rage as scripture says they do. The farce will play itself out even if and when it ends with them achieving their one world dystopia. For dystopia it is, of such horror that Christ Himself must descend to earth with his host of saints in His retinue to destroy it.

But all in due time

Are we the Last Generation

One oft cited proof that we are in the last generation is the passage in Matthew 24:32 about the fig tree. It is taken to be the nation of Israel and so its foundation in 1948, or its flourishing in 1967, are taken as proof that this generation will witness the Second Coming of Christ

The thing about the fig tree is that sometimes a fig tree is only a fig tree and nothing more, and certainly is not the nation of Israel. Why is this? Luke 21:28-30" And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand."

If the fig tree is the nation of Israel then clearly ALL THE TREES would flourish whereby we would know that summer was near and so therefore was His coming. All the nations? Clearly not. So what the mere fact of this plural, all the trees, shows is that the fig tree was not Israel. So what we are left with is that there is no biblical nor rational linking of the restoration of the Nation of Israel with the last generation. The fig tree was only a fig tree and not symbolic of Israel.

So are we in the last generation? given the current upsurge of nationalism in response to globalism my considered opinion is that the climate is not right for a one world government which is a necessary precursor for the Second Coming, for the Beast must be in place and in power before Christ come to overthrow him. And he is not at this time.

Moreover if any say that it must be in this generation end up dying of old age without it happening then they have only discredited the whole notion of the second coming in the eyes of the world. and for that, God assures us, they will pay

Context is an amazing thing. Immediately before Paul spoke of the rapture of the church he told us to live quiet lives, do our own jobs and mind our own business (I Thessalonians 4:11).

So if we are running around like mad things, carnally excited by the prospect of His coming before lunch time next Tuesday we are not in the sabbath rest of the believer spoken of in the letter to the Hebrews and so are not prepared for His coming

Certainly Christ is coming. But i am likely to be among the dead in Christ when it happens, that is to say it will not be in my lifetime.

Next issue, please! something of practical import!

How I live today is of more practical moment that obsessing over times we were not given the authority to know (Acts 1:6-8

The Gillette ad: feminist porn

Anti feminist academic and scholar Dr Janice Fiamengo of the University of Ottawa has responded to that vicious piece of man shaming the Gillette ad.
 
She speaks also of the maker of the this.

Dr Fiamengo  also describes  this obscenity as feminist porn  with perfect aptness

A Reply to Gillette Man Shaming

No doubt everyone has seen the new Gillette ad, which is pure sexist man shaming and blaming.

Not only have they bought into the feminist narrative, which is sexist by definition for it ignores the sins of women totally and blames men only  for women's  own evil (ie "men drove us to it") if they do sometimes acknowledge such, but the ad was heavy handed and preachifying

This is the typical method of the ideologue fanatic. Any arrogance  is justified, the think, because of the real or imagined truth of their  cause. This zealotry is as old as time itself. But the feminist and their allies have forgotten that the 17th century Puritans were much the same and as hated, which is why they fled to the Americas in and after 1620 there to exterminate indigenous peoples.

It  is not the business of merchants selling anything  to preach; and only shows the raw cynicism  of that whoring in the market place  which business has descended to.

Indeed to insult their  customer base is imbecility. They make razors mostly for men, and think it a virtue to insult men and blamed them for everything with no peek as to the evil of women also - which is to say have adopted the feminist narrative

But a video in reply to this toxic ad points out that the boot is to be worn on both feet, in other words that  women are sinners too.

And here it is


This is why feminism is nothing but man hating,  the embittered utterances of a female supremacist group seeking nothing but exemptions and privileges - any group out for justice would be even handed in its denunciation of evil.

Unfortunately there is one error in this vid common to the Gillette piece, and this at the end of it, the appeal to the solution. And this is, namely  the belief that we can be better people by resolving to do so . anyone who has tried this has failed. it is easy for virtue signalling hypocrites who have never seriously tried to be better to  demand this. To these I say go and try, and WHEN you have failed, with a spectacular agony commensurate with the effort, then you are ready to talk, or perhaps listen. for nothing but woe will follow this, the woe of another generation of repressed hypocrites , and so the cycle goes round and round again
