Dave Ramsey claims there is a problem out there with some “bad and toxic teachings” that claim if you won with money or if you got wealthy, you have done something wrong. He claims it is heresy to have that belief. Of course most people do not believe wealth is evil. They rightfully believe that how one gets wealthy is sometimes evil, bad, and toxic.

Why is it heresy based on his explanation? God owns it all. He simply anointed a select few as managers of the wealth. Dave Ramsey is upset that some of the wealthy seem apologetic for their wealth. He does not understand that many who feel that way simply understand that they did not do anything extraordinary for their good fortune relative to others.

Dave Ramsey had some other rather strange statements. “This is about when you do things biblical with money,” Ramsey said. “you will end up with the responsibility to manage money for the kingdom.” He says this with authority and a straight face. Has he forgotten the thousands of investment bankers, loan officers, and investors who got rich and remain rich by pilfering the middle class as they brought the world’s economy to collapse? Are those God’s money managers? Is it really heresy to call them all out?

Of course Dave Ramsey had to state his position on the inheritance tax. “I have already been taxed on this money once,” Ramsey said. Dave Ramsey fails to understand that mathematically speaking, absent an inheritance tax, wealth accumulation would be exponential and is unsustainable. If the wealth of a few grows faster than the economy at large, it is effectively a theft from the masses. It means those with capital are extracting more than what the economy they are a part of can produce

Root Source Ltd., which provides Christians access to Jewish teachings online, reports the eclipse will darken the sun just in time for the sunrise at the North Pole, where it will be visible for two minutes.

It will happen both on the first day of spring and on the first day of the Jewish religious calendar, the beginning of the month of Nisan.

Such an astronomical event only takes place once every 100,000 years, experts said.

In an exclusive interview with WND, Root Source co-founder Bob O’Dell pointed to the significance of an eclipse visible from the North Pole at this particular time.

“The North Pole can’t really be called the territory of any particular nation or people,” O’Dell said. “This is likely a message from God to the entire world.”

Pastor Mark Biltz, author of “Blood Moons: Decoding the Imminent Heavenly Signs,” sees a heavenly warning in the consequences of the eclipse, especially for the northern Europeans, who will be most affected.

In an exclusive interview with WND, Biltz explained, “In Jewish tradition, a total solar eclipse is a warning to the Gentiles and a sign of judgment on the nations. When we look at where the darkness will be, it will be in northern European countries like England and Sweden where we see the rise of Islam and anti-Israel sentiment. Europeans especially should take heed.”

Quote# 107209

Fox and National Geographic Channels have combined to create a remake of the old Carl Sagan TV series, “Cosmos.” This new series is anything but fair and balanced. The writers of the new Cosmos make it clear they believe there is no explanation, other than evolution and random chance, for the origins of life and the universe. They are certainly free to think that way. However, the new Cosmos is not just promoting a particular view of science. The show is actively targeting and mocking Christians and any belief other than theirs.

The first program specifically went after various Christian beliefs as well as going after the Catholic church with derogatory, condescending comments. The second show portrayed the tree of evolution as the tree of life. Again there were pointed statements about the evolutionary process being ruled by chance and openly mocking the idea of intelligent design. The narrator delighted in pointing out that some people were uncomfortable and had emotional reactions to the reality that we evolved from apes and that our DNA has much in common with trees. This was illustrated with DNA replicas. I guess they thought this was more effective than showing a grinning Carl Sagan hugging a tree in the old Cosmos. Again, I have no problem with Cosmos being allowed to say what they want in the public media. But, as Christians, we would be foolish to miss the pointedness and the arrogance of the attack. Nothing is allowable except random mutation of single cell organisms and evolution to account for life on earth. Fancy graphics and an improved space ship from the first Cosmos do not change what is real.

The choice is clear about how creation occurred. You can opt for random selection or the loving, providential Word of God in the person of Jesus Christ. The former makes morality and ethics just as random as the evolutionary process itself. There are no standards and there cannot be truth. There can only be the fluid and dynamic morality of random chance.

The latter view provides the basis for accountability and purpose in life. There is much at stake here for us and for our children. Observe carefully and be ready to respond to a lost world with the truth that God is the creator of all. We are all accountable to him who has determined the exact places where we will live and who provides us with our next breath. We must be bold, clear and gentle in proclaiming that God is not a figment of the imagination, but the Lord of all creation who spoke the universe into existence.

Kirk’s words, often the same words that you and I might think, are reported as hate speech. He is openly mocked, ridiculed and even hated for believing what committed Christians should believe. His words are frequently taken out of context so that often what is reported is not accurate. Kirk is not the only one to endure this treatment. There are other Christians, other public figures that are treated this way. But I am blessed to know Kirk, so for me it is personal. And I want to take this opportunity to encourage you to do two things.

First, pray for Kirk and those like him who remain faithful even in the middle of the media blitz and misinformation. Be thankful for their sacrifice and willingness to speak the truth when it is not pleasant to do so.

Second, follow his example, and speak clearly to those you come in contact with about who God is and what the Bible teaches. In many ways folks like Kirk are doing the job that our churches should be doing, the job you and I should be doing. We don’t need to be on TV to make an impact for Christ. Pray that God would give us the courage to make the most of the opportunities given to us to speak God’s truth in love.

I encourage you to be thankful for those like Kirk who are in the public eye. Pray for them. Join me in thanking Kirk for standing for the things we hold dear. Let him know he is not alone.

Quote# 107207

he purpose of the family is 1) to maintain and nourish the one-flesh relationship between husband and wife, and 2) to prepare children to leave the home of their parents and establish their own home. The family does not exist for itself. Genesis 2:24 teaches that the husband-wife relationship does not exist primarily for children. Children are only temporary residents. A husband and wife are to remain together after the children have left. Parents, note this well: God wants your children to leave home. They are to move on. Parents are the ones who stay put.



When children become the primary purpose of family life, the focus of parents shifts to the enjoyment of children. Children become an end in themselves. In the 21st century, children are often wanted simply for the experience of having children. Famous single people, both homosexual and heterosexual, adopt children or bear them outside of marriage because they don’t want to miss the parenting experience. To be sure, the Bible teaches that children are a blessing from God. Being a parent should be a profound and wonderful experience. However, this experience must never become the primary goal of having children. They are to be raised for His glory and for His purposes. When people, married or single, Christian or not, have children and raise them for their own purposes, awful consequences occur. Wrong priorities distort the entire concept of family.



This shift in focus from the training of children to the enjoyment of children actually diminishes the pleasure of parenting. Children are selfish, devious and ungrateful by nature. Unless children are instructed and disciplined to follow God, they will follow their own natural ways. They will always frustrate the expectations of parental enjoyment. Parents looking primarily for enjoyment from such creatures are in for a major disappointment. Loving, enjoyable relationships between parents and children are a by-product of good parenting, not the goal. Even at that, the enjoyment of children is a blessing from God that should not be assumed or taken for granted. Many good parents have endured heartbreaking situations with their children.



People like Freud, Dewey, Hall, Spock and Piaget, who despise the very idea of the living God of the Bible, have shaped the world’s (and, unfortunately, many Christians’) thinking about raising children. These men teach that children are independent beings who must be free to make up their own minds about the world around them. Creativity and discovery must not be stifled. Lies are the expression of a child’s mytho-poetic capability. Sexual conduct must not be restricted. Sexual experimentation at almost any age is encouraged. Children must be free to choose what they want to be. Self-expression is the creed of the day, no matter how perverse that expression may be. It does not take long for children raised this way to become anything but enjoyable. Thus child abuse rises, broken homes become the norm and life for many families is an increasing frustration.



In this modern environment, the home functions not as a greenhouse, but as a stage. Children are displayed, not protected. Children are exploited, not trained. Sinful behavior is accepted and defended. Parents live for their children and children live for themselves. Many believe that small children cannot understand such complex concepts as God, sin, responsibility and substitutionary atonement. So instead of teaching children the hope of the gospel as the solution for the difficulties of life, parents invest in their children’s accomplishments and performance. If children are not on the honor roll, winning beauty contests or leading the team in scoring at an early age, parents are disappointed. No child can bear this awful weight.



Remember, the home is to be like a greenhouse. Its purpose is to help children grow in God’s way. The home is not a stage for displaying children. Over against the modern theme is God’s direction for parents to teach children about His ways and how He runs His world.

YANGON, Myanmar >> A bar manager from New Zealand and two Burmese men were sentenced to two years in prison in Myanmar on Tuesday for posting an image online of the Buddha wearing headphones, an effort to promote an event.

The court in Yangon said the image denigrated Buddhism and was a violation of Myanmar's religion act, which prohibits insulting, damaging or destroying religion. "It is clear the act of the bar offended the majority religion in the country," said the judge, Ye Lwin.

The image was posted in December on the Facebook page of the VGastro bar and restaurant in Yangon. After an outcry from hard-line Buddhist groups, the police arrested the restaurant's general manager, Philip Blackwood, 32, of New Zealand, along with the bar owner, Tun Thurein, 40, and the manager, Htut Ko Ko Lwin, 26. The three have been held in Insein prison, in Yangon.

In addition to the two-year prison term for violating the religion act, the three were also sentenced to six months for illegally operating a bar after 10 p.m. Blackwood said after the verdict that the men had expected they would be convicted.

The case has added to growing concerns about religious and ethnic intolerance in majority-Buddhist Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, where Muslims have faced increasing discrimination and violence. Hundreds of people were killed in sectarian violence in western and central Myanmar in 2012 and 2013. The country's Parliament is also considering new laws that critics fear will be used to discriminate against minorities.

(I agree that bisexuals in straight relationships are privileged, but they still have a right to LGBTQ spaces)



No they don’t, their rights are not at stake when they invade LGBT spaces. Yes I know that in the past they could’ve been in a homosexual relationship but they’re not at present? So how about letting others who are actually socially, economically and culturally oppressed? why won’t you let them speak?

...

Like I said, the B is only for bisexual people not in a hetero relationship

Quote# 107204

Do you remember that Pink Floyd song, "Comfortably Numb"? I think they were ahead of their time when they sang this one! To me, this sums up the state of our generation. The problem goes beyond the five senses. We have become emotionally numb as well. Young men and women, even pre-teens, are becoming intimate without thinking twice. I've ever heard of people meeting in clubs and going home together, without even knowing each others' names! Women are coerced by society to become more emotionally detached from intimacy by the destructive forces of television and magazines like Cosmopolitan. They try to make women feel archaic and ugly if they're still pure! As if that were even an assumption- most women are assumed to have lost their purity. You'll never see a popular magazine promoting chastity! Like, that's so 1800s! It's a very sorry state of affairs. And what about the next generation? They're brought into this without a say in the matter. It is perfectly acceptable for a woman to have a baby without knowing who the father was, never attempting to find out, and raising her child without a father! The child grows up thinking not having a father is a normal thing! Or, if the woman marries someone else, the child may not even know until later in life that this is not his real father! It's a tragedy of the greatest proportions!

[...]

There are so many ways we can bring ourselves back to a state of spiritual sensitivity. Throw away the garbage magazines, as my mother would call them, and replace them with books of emuna and spirituality. When was the last time you read "The Garden of Emuna"? Did you ever experience the joy of reading "Chassidic Pearls" to your children during Shabbat dinner? Eating kosher meat is another way to make our hearts more sensitive. Kabbalah teaches that a person absorbs the energy of the animal that he eats. If it is a non-kosher animal, or was slaughtered in a non-kosher way, this contributes in a major way to a spiritually thick, fatty coating around our hearts that creates an impermeable barrier to emotions. Nothing goes in and nothing comes out.

Quote# 107202

It waits patiently in the homes of millions, waiting to infect its unassuming victims. There is no bias, no preference based on age or gender. Everyone is equally susceptible to this equal-opportunity killer. Every day, in the "safety" of our own homes, we come into contact with its venom, but we don't feel the sting right away. Like radiation poisoning, it builds up slowly, steadily, until its effects are felt through our ravaged bodies, and we become helpless to fight off the deadly sickness. Though most of us become infected as children, we don't notice the cumulative effects until we are much older, if ever. The biggest problem with this disease is that we willingly invite it in. Not only do we invite it into our lives, we relish every moment that we are being infected. That's one of its tricks; like chocolate-covered poison, as Rabbi Brody says. If you haven't guessed what sneaky killer I'm referring to, I'll give you a hint.

TELEVISION.

[...]

Unfortunately, the problem with addiction to television began before most of us had a say in the matter. As young, unassuming children, we trusted our parents' actions and even until today, don't think twice about it. How do I know that TV is an addiction for most children? Let me ask you- do you remember how MAD you got when your parents turned off the TV? Were you begging for just one more minute? Did you burst into tears? Did you stop your feet and threaten to not eat dinner? This behavior is much too similar to addiction, don't you think?

[...]

And don't think any of this is accidental. The media knows exactly what they're doing! Since the 1950's they have been successfully turning most of the nation into TV zombies, programming their brains with exactly the desires they want them to have.

[...]

In conclusion, I can't think of one positive reason for anyone to watch TV, especially a child. In every respect, TV literally kills the innocence and potential of a child. They should be enjoying the afternoons running outside or using their limitless, G-d given imaginations. Childhood is such a short, precious gift. Let's not take it away from them. Parents, if you want the best for your children, get rid of the TV. You won't regret it.

Quote# 107200

Another secret Rabbi Brody shares with us is that keeping niddah brings prosperity to a couple. [...] According to Kabbalah, there are several main spiritual pipelines, or channels, by which our sustenance is brought down from Above. [T]he main pipeline for prosperity is the wife. Therefore, the cleaner the pipe, the greater the channel is for receiving abundance from Hashem. For a husband to reach his full potential in his career and business ventures, the wife's soul must be a pure channel for abundance. I like to think of spiritual impurities as "spiritual cholesterol". They are unhealthy for the soul and body, as these blockages greatly diminish the amount of abundance that is able to reach it's intended destination.

[...]

Regarding the husband, Rabbi Brody explains that instances of prostate cancer are significantly lower among men whose wives observe niddah. The same holds true for rates of uterine, ovarian, and cervical cancer.

There is another reason why it's called "family purity". The children that are born from such a pure and holy union are blessed in every way. "When two parents are pure channels, they impart their purity to their children," states Rabbi Brody. During the time of conception, Hashem acts as a partner with the parents in the creation of a new child. This child will be born with a healthy and balanced mental and emotional disposition, along with a sharp mind and a good heart. Conversely, children that are born of an impure union are more likely to suffer emotional and mental disorders, anxiety, and be more difficult to raise. This is because the child received the impurity from the parents at the time of conception.

Quote# 107199

Ever since the Haskala, or Enlightenment movement, began in the 19th century, there has been a new breed of Jew- the non-observant type. Historically speaking, never before this time was there any type of Jew other than a Torah observant Jew. Rebbe Nachman warned about this many times, saying that "Great atheism is coming to the world". This new type of spiritual revolt against G-d led to future generations of Jews completely forgetting their identity, not to mention their Torah obligations. As a result, the Jewish neshama, or soul, is so deeply concealed within the person himself that he is now questioning and dismissing the very validity and practicality of our Holy, G-d given Torah. This, I believe, is the root cause of the dissention between non-religious and religious Jews.

[...]

When we observe a Torah lifestyle, which is full of restrictions and physical limitations, we actually provide the rest of the world with the spiritual vitamins they need in order to function. This is why when we try to act like non-Jews by leading a lifestyle similar to theirs, and forgetting our spiritual obligations, the world rebels against us. They don't even realize it themselves, but they are upset that we're not holding up our end of the deal. I can't blame them!

Quote# 107198

What I take issue with is what feminism has done to the woman. In my opinion, (again, I stress that this is only an opinion) feminism has taken away femininity from the woman. Let's start with looks: how many women do you know that actually dress like women? Most women these days wear jeans or shorts, plain t-shirts, and sneakers. I would guess that 99.9% of women wear pants at work. I'm not even talking about the lack of modesty- I'm just referring to the lack of femininity in women's looks today. There is a small percentage of women who do put on makeup and take the time to look attractive, but that in itself is a whole 'nother can of worms, and I'm not opening that up today. I'm not promoting the etiquette schools of the past, but I am wondering where our lady-likeness has gone.

Next issue: Behavior. Nowadays, women feel the need to compete with men in every area of life, including binge-drinking. If a woman can guzzle down a six-pack, the men around her will surely be quite impressed! Young women think nothing of being loud and rowdy in a restaurant or any public place. It is totally acceptable for everyone at Starbuck's to hear a girl describe every detail of her date the previous night to her girlfriends. What about sports? Aside from football, I don't know of any sport that women don't participate in. You might say that's great, but I don't see the point of women playing basketball. Be honest- do any of these ladies look lady-like? Even bodybuilding has its fair share of women. Do any of those bodybuilders even look like women anymore? I sure don't think so! They're more muscular than most men!

Third issue: Career. Here's where it gets really controversial. Let me start by saying that if a woman is in a financial position where she needs to work, no one can fault her for it. I'm not referring to these women. What I would like to call attention to is the women who choose to work. What influenced your decision, ladies? Was it something that was always expected of you? Sadly, most of us were trained to expect a glamorous work career at the end of our college career. Did anyone train us to primarily want to raise a family? [...] To me, it's no wonder why so many families are dysfunctional today. There are too many things pulling the parents apart, and women in the workplace is a big part of it. Not to mention all of the adultery going on! Cheating would be much less prevalent if women weren't working with men! [...] Yes, you might be a career woman with a comfortable income and a nice title after your name, but who's raising your children? The nanny or the television? Who is home to greet them with a smile and a hug when they walk in the door after school? as a result of spending so much time and effort at work, does your house feel like a home? Does it have that magical energy of warmth and love that only a woman can give it? Or is it a house that your family uses to eat and sleep in until life begins all over again the next day?

[...]

Ladies, I am aware that many of you might be upset and even angry with what I wrote. My intention is not to make anyone feel bad, only to present information that will cause you to question your ideals. Do you want to be a real feminist? Then take back your home! Take back your family! Go against what society forces you to believe in. Be a woman who thinks outside of the box. Real feminism is about being the most incredible woman you can be. It's not about trying to be as much like a man as possible. But if you think about it, that's what feminism is to most people. How ironic! If you're a feminist, that means you're trying to live your life like a man as much as possible! This is exactly the antithesis of feminism!

Aside from bringing out the absolute worst in people, the internet has created an addiction that is engulfing millions of men and women in its abyss: the addiction to pornography. It goes without say that this addiction has ruined the lives of millions of men and the lives of their wives and children. Even if a man or woman is not addicted to such websites filled with complete tum'ah (spiritual filth), the simple act of going to these sites once in a while is enough to kill them and their relationship with their families.

[...]

It is obvious that parents who give their kids free reign to use unrestricted internet are putting their children in serious, potentially life-threatening danger. But this is just one aspect of a larger problem.

The larger problem, I believe, is the progressively decaying morals of society in general. What morals, you ask? Good question. I think the answer is precisely in that question. These days, anything goes. Everything is okay. Whatever you want to do, more power to you. If it feels good to you, go for it! And cliché after cliché after cliché.

Except this is really what life has become. People have become so concerned with living their lives for themselves, they don't know how to make room in their hearts for others. We have become a cold-hearted, depraved, and self-centered society.

So what is a parent supposed to do if he wants to prevent his children from growing up in such a laissez-faire world? In my mind, there are two options:

a) build an underground cave in your home and hide your kids there until, well, indefinitely

b) pack up and move to a family-oriented, child-nurturing, Torah-observant community in Israel

Quote# 107196

One of the great curiosities of the modern era is the idea that so-called socially progressive policies are generally held to be good for the downtrodden. Nobody worth taking seriously ever thought so before, but it’s held to be a fact these days.

However, loosening the controls on social behavior has the same effect as loosening controls on the market: the strong gain at the expense of the weak.

When banks are deregulated, the rich get richer at the expense of the poor. When sexual mores are relaxed those with more sexual capital totally dominate the market. Furthermore, those better able to control themselves and live a disciplined family lifestyle with minimal pressure have an enormous advantage over those who give in to temptation. This is why marriage has collapsed for large segments of society. Socially progressive policies not only tolerating but promoting an “anything goes” form of sexuality victimize those who need some external controls on their behavior.

Same goes for feminist policies promoting “equal” relationships between husband and wife. For most people, these relationships simply don’t work. Most need clearly defined gender roles that take natural human tendencies into account. Without them they become confused, dissatisfied and demoralized.

So when I hear people say they believe in social justice, and use that as a justification for a laissez-faire attitude toward social mores, I tend to think they’re either cynical, evil bastards or hopeless fools. Social justice and social liberalism are inimical to each other. This doesn’t mean that people should be strictly controlled in all aspects of life, but rather that there should be some balance in the matter. While there will always be people who are by nature sexually ambitious or deviant, they shouldn’t be held up as examples to the masses.

Why progressives can’t see this was long a mystery to me. I thought that maybe it was because they live isolated lives, but I’m not sure that’s true, because a lot of urban liberals have conservative, small town roots, and plenty have experienced their share of family dysfunction.

Recently, I’ve come to see it as a matter of faith. A large segment of our population has a religious belief in what are called “progressive” values, nurtured by thousands of hours in front of the family altar: the TV set. What we are seeing in contemporary America is the fruits of a false religion. When progressives rail against religious fundamentalists, they are blind to the fact that they are as much religious fanatics as anyone. When they poke fun at Evangelical creationists, they ignore gaping holes in their own reasoning, and they react with all the fury of a zealot if one dares to gently point out how the facts contradict their beliefs.

What we are dealing with in the West is, above all, a crisis of faith. This is why people are so confused about simple truths, and so willing to believe black is white, up is down and two plus two equals five.

Third, if these two allusions to Christianity are not enough, consider yet another. Immediately after Article VII, the Constitution closes with the following words:


Done in Convention by the Unanimous Consent of the States present the Seventeenth Day of September in the Year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and Eighty seven and of the Independence of the United States of America the Twelfth....

Did you catch it? Their work was done “in the Year of our Lord.” The Christian world dates all of human history in terms of the birth of Christ. “B.C.” means “before Christ,” and “A.D.” is the abbreviation for the Latin words “anno Domini,” meaning “year of our Lord.” If the Framers were interested in being pluralistic, multi-cultural, and politically correct, they would have refrained from using the B.C./A.D. designation. Or they would have used the religionless designations “C.E.,” Common Era, and “B.C.E.,” Before the Common Era (see “Common Era,” 2008). In so doing, they would have avoided offending Jews, atheists, agnostics, and humanists. Or they could have used “A.H.” (anno hegirae—which means “in the year of the Hijrah” and refers to Muhammad’s flight from Mecca in A.D. 622), the date used by Muslims as the commencement date for the Islamic calendar. Instead, the Framers chose to utilize the dating method that indicated the worldview they shared. What’s more, their reference to “our Lord” does not refer to a generic deity, nor does it refer even to God the Father. It refers to God the Son—an explicit reference to Jesus Christ. Make no mistake: the Constitution of the United States contains an explicit reference to Jesus Christ—not Allah, Buddha, Muhammad, nor the gods of Hindus or Native Americans!

consider the wording of a sentence from Article I, Section 7 of the Constitution: “If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it....” “Sundays excepted”? The government shuts down and does not transact business on Sunday? Why? If this provision had been made in respect of Jews, the Constitution would have read “Saturdays excepted.” If provision had been made for Muslims, the Constitution would have read “Fridays excepted.” If the Founders had intended to encourage a day of inactivity for the government without regard to any one religion, they could have chosen Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. Instead, the federal Constitution reads “Sundays excepted”—proving conclusively that America was Christian in its orientation and that the Framers themselves shared the Christian worldview and gave political recognition to and accommodation of that fact.

Egomoral has conducted a ‘pedophilia’ survey since May 2014. Since then the survey was taken over 200 times. The quiz asks that only straight males take the quiz. The quiz asks males whether they are attracted to certain pre-pubescent, pubescent or post-pubescent physical female traits. Based on how many pre-bubescent or pubescent traits were preferred over post-pubescent traits, pedophilic/hebephilic preference was estimated.

The data shows that 91.4% of heterosexual males are non-exclusive pedophiles and 41.4% are exclusive pedophiles. Only 19.6% of the straight male population prefer post-pubescent traits in females i.e. hair in arm pits, hair on pubic area, hair on legs, large facial pores, proportionately smaller eyes.

This data helps to explain why most post-pubescent females in modern society must spend a great deal of time, everyday, removing their ‘secondary sex characteristics’ (shaving off under arm hair, leg hair, pubic hair, facial hair, wearing cover-up, lip stick, eyeliner). This data correlates well with the child-bride-denial theory.

Most of all, this data shows that most straight men have pedophilic tendencies and that pedophilia is normal in heterosexual males.

I just recieved an email from a fellow Christian who is blessed with the gift of prophetic dreams and visions. For some reason, I have a unique ability to interpret those dreams/visions, and they have corroborated my conclusion that the Rapture will happen 1,365 days (5x273 see Num 3:50) after 12/21/2012. Know that when Jesus said "no man knows the day or hour...", He was talking about His return to shorten the Tribulation, not the Rapture.

The vision in the email involved trees burning in a fire, and it was delivered on 1/30/2015. In the OT, trees represent Nations and fire represents conflict and consumption. The next day, a vision was given that indicated more blood will be spilt as global conflicts worsen.

Starting from 12/21/2012, counting every 273 days for 5 cycles, the dates I have been and will be watching are:
1) 9/20/2013
2) 6/20/2015
3) 3/20/2015 (Moon blacks out the sun on Vernal Equinox)
4) 12/18/2015
5) 9/16/2016 (Rapture)

To put it simply, the vision of the burning trees was given on 1/30/2015. Then, 49 days later, it is the last day of the Hebrew year (not the first) on 3/20/2015. Then, one day later (49+1 as in Jubilee), is the first day of the Hebrew year on 3/21/2015. Will this be world war? Will it simply be an increase in conflict and blood spilling? Will the USA get further involved in one or more wars? I simply dont know, but it does appear that we are heading that way.

I dont subscribe to the "Lunar tetrad theory", but the Solar Eclipse of 3/20/2015 does cross paths with my calculations, so what does it signify. If the Sun represents Christ as the Groom, and the Moon reflects the glory of Sun (as the bride reflects the grooms glory), then the up coming violence will be a result of the Church's failure to glorify Christ. Rather than glorifying Christ, the Church has fallen asleep and is obsuring the glory of the groom, as the moon blocks out the sun.

The completely petulant and histrionic response from gay parents like Ryan Murphy to Dolce & Gabbana's comments can give average Americans a small taste of what children in such homes will have to deal with. You can't be a good parent and want to have absolute control over what your kids think and feel, in addition to what the whole world thinks and feels about you and your kids. It's a recipe for emotional abuse of whoever is under your power. Look at the punitive urge, the lust for vengeance, the despotism. That is what I see in Ricky Martin, Jeremy Hooper, Ryan Murphy, and Elton John. These are men who will terrorize human beings if they can, if they are within their striking distance. They acquired children the way they get everything they want in all aspects of their lives: through economic leverage, intimidation, and sheer arrogance. Imagine being a helpless and confused child longing for a mom, and being under the power of a dad who throws out clothing and calls for all-out destruction of anyone who hints that you have lost something by being denied a mom. Imagine not one such man lording over you, but two. This is horrible. These people are disgusting. I hope and pray that Dolce and Gabbana do not capitulate to them. These repulsive tyrants must learn at some point that they are not gods, and they cannot bring the world to their knees.

Re: Selective reproductive cloning as the solution to the problem of (male) involutary celibacy

Closer to 1 in 6 never have children -- equally women and men.

Equal numbers of men and women occurs around age 27, but that's not all that important. 27 is a terrible age for women to get married. Women rapidly lose fertility after about age 30, while men still have a decade more of youth before a very gradual decline. A few years down the road, a similar-age husband finds he's saddled with a sterile wife just as he's reaching his prime.

Ideally, unmarried men of all ages should take mid- to late-teens virgins off the hands of their fathers. Today's sex marketplace is overloaded with "hot" 30- to 50-somethings who are gynecologically and psychologically scarred, diseased, and polluted, with a couple of niglets and several ex-boyfriends hovering about. And men are expected to compete for such leavings.

The breakdown of the family caused virtually all the problems we associate with modern socio-sexual dysfunction.

The only real solution is for men to take back the land, to have a home and farm and ranch on the land. That way, they'll be not just suitable husband material when they're ready to take a wife, but they'll actually be the catches that women compete for.

Society must never get back to where some jew-like son of a pawn-shop operator or a negro thug is considered to be superior hookup material because he's dumb as a doorknob, loud, crude, vulgar, rootless, and flashes a wad of one-dollar bills wrapped in a hundred.

Sandy Rios, the right-wing radio host and American Family Association governmental affairs director, is outraged at the GOP’s handling of legislation to combat sex trafficking, a bipartisan bill whose passage may be threatened because of an anti-abortion provision quietly added in by Republican leadership.

Rios said her problem isn’t with the anti-choice add-on, which she supports, but with the fact that Republicans are pushing for the legislation at all at a time when they should instead be fighting to stop gay rights.

She claimed that conservatives should see the fight against sex trafficking as “secondary” to combatting homosexuality since the latter is “threatening the culture” while trafficking “has been overblown.”

You'll never hear what I'm about to tell you from the predominantly Jewish-controlled mainstream newsmedia. I do not enjoy writing articles like this, but the truth needs to be told, so that no Christian dare idolize or speak highly of actor Leonard Simon Nimoy (1931-2015). Our world is fast-headed for eternal damnation. Literally, BILLIONS of souls will all be dead over the next few decades. I don't want you to go to Hell forever. Leonard Nimoy died so foolishly on February 27 last month.

Tragically, Mr. Nimoy went to Hell in his sins without Jesus Christ. Did anyone witness to him? Did anyone care? Would he have listened? It is very sad indeed. 2nd Corinthians 4:3-5, “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world [Satan] hath blinded the minds of them which believe not [unsaved people], lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them [enlightenment]. For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.”

I have read nothing but positive comments from the Jewish-controlled media. I am NOT anti-Semite, God forbid. I love all Jewish people, including Leonard Nimoy. I am however against the arrogance-fueled-heresy of Zionism that blinds men's minds and hearts, hindering them from seeing the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ. It breaks my heart to know that Mr. Nimoy went to Hell. As you will now learn for yourself, Leonard Nimoy was caught up into New Age philosophies of a male and female aspect of God. There is no feminine aspect of God (as sinfully taught by Feminist Theology). The Holy Bible is a masculine Book!


Leonard Nimoy Expressed His Jewish Religion Through Nude Photography

Leonard Nimoy was a big-time sexual degenerate. In a disturbing two-part YouTube interview video by Leonard Nimoy titled, “Sex And Religion,” featured at Rmichelson.com (I will not link to either of these websites because of their nude and lewd content), Mr. Nimoy makes some shocking statements. Nimoy claims that his first sexual experience was at age 8-to 9 years old, while attended an orthodox Jewish synagogue. He claims that the Rabbi got up and prayed in Hebrew, while everyone in the congregation made an occult hand-sign (which he later introduced as the famous “Vulcan Hand Sign” in the Star Trek series. He was told by his father to cover his eyes and not to look.

According to Nimoy, at the aforementioned occult synagogue ceremony, he was taught by the Jewish Rabbi that a female deity (named Shekhina) entered into the gathering room to bless the congregation. Yes, Leonard Nimoy believed that God has a female aspect (which is satanic New Age). The reason why Nimoy was told to cover his eyes was in humility to the Shekhina. So Nimoy claims he pondered how to see the Shekhina if you cannot look at her. His solution was to combine sensuality with religion. Literally, Leonard Nimoy claims that he sought to photograph the female aspect of God (the Shekhina) by photographing nude, lewd and sensual women. This is utter wickedness.

Biblically, God has no female side. Only in witchcraft, the occult, Yin-Yang and New Age occultism do we find the existence of a female goddess or deity. The Holy Bible teaches about GOD THE FATHER, and GOD THE SON, and GOD THE HOLY SPRIT (Who is referred to as “He” in John 16:13, “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth.” All aspects of the Divine Godhead are masculine, and always shall be. There are no feminine aspects of the Godhead. Woe unto the wicked!

"Well, thanks for actually confirming that the creators DID mean to have a Korrasami ending.

The problem I have, even more than the actual same-sex pairing itself, is the insinuation that (1) anyone who thinks the pairing was "forced" is either overtly homophobic or somehow not open-minded enough, which this quote seems to imply:



That's basically a way to stifle any actual critique of the way the show played out by implying that those who don't think this ending was set up well, are homophobic, too invested in a heteronormative worldview, etc.
This is what upsets me the most with Bryke's statement. Just because someone disapproves of the homosexual lifestyle doesn't mean we're hateful. I find it strange though when he talked about viewers having a heteronormative worldview. I'm heterosexual, it's the only perspective that I know. I've held hands with women before, blushed when they compliment me. That doesn't mean I'm in love with them. How else am I suppose to interpret those gestures but platonic?"

But you're right in that calling people who disagree as homophobes is actually shutting down any meaningful discussion of the story from the narrative standpoint. If they have to spell it out for viewers what their intentions were in the "romance" department, then I'm sorry but that's just bad writing.
