Truth vs. Reality

TRUTH vs. REALITY
Religious Freedom and Seperation of Church and State
 
There has been a lot of talk and criticism about the apparent need for the people of the US to give up some "minor" personal liberties in return for better security, or to better serve the needs of certain minority groups, or to prevent unwanted and undesirable influences from spreading. Some have quoted history saying, "If you give up your rights for more security you deserve neither." Some have blasted the administration for being stormtroopers or gestapo. But, sadly, it is as they say. We have apparently lost some of our basic liberties. Actually the fact is that we Americans have been stripped of some of our most precious liberties guaranteed in the Constitution, and it has been done in the name of a better world for all, and done so slightly and fiendishly that the majority of the people have not noticed the extent to which it has been taken.

I’m not talking about our government imposing stricter screening of travelers, nor am I referring to the relaxed search and seizure laws or the racial profiling policies initiated since 9/11. What I am talking about is the effective reversal of the intended, expressed meaning of the first ammendment and the near total repeal of the freedom of religion and religious expression guaranteed in that ammendment.

The first ammendment to the Constitution says …

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

We have been given an alternate interpretation of that ammendment which seeks to prevent anyone from being involuntarily subjected to any religious act of worship or expression of relious belief that they don’t agree with. The right they seek to enforce, freedom from exposure to religious expression, does not exist anywhere in the constitution. In fact the first ammendment is implicit that tolerance of all religious expression is necessary to meet the requirement of that ammendment..

In the past few decades a powerful, outspoken, radical group of liberal minded Americans have succeeded in getting the first ammendment turned outside in and upside down, and re-interpreted to their idea of what religious freedom should be, which is exactly the opposite of what the constitution actually says. They have managed to effectively outlaw religious displays in public, successfully bannished the ten commandments, the mention of God in any setting including the Pledge of Allegiance, and all mention or reference to God, Jesus, or the Holy Spirit from schools, the workplace, and public gatherings. They have turned Chritianity and pride in America into a shameful embarrasment. They have done so under the pretense of enforcing the supposed constitutional "seperation of church and state". Why, you might wonder, have they gone so far and worked so hard to deny us our religious liberties? All I can say is misery loves company and the liberals in congress and on the apellate courts, and their atheist clients are definitely miserable. This is what they have forged as reality in America.

But reality isn’t necessarily the truth. The truth is:

  1. The words, "seperation of church and state" do not appear in the Constitution of the United States nor in the Declaration of Independence, or in any document upon which our country was founded. Seperation of church and state, and its vague doctrine, is an interpolated lie and no rights have been granted thereby,
  2. and,

  3. The Constitution is still the law of the land and, as such, the first ammendment is in force and can be proven in any court of law.

Government is not allowed to prohibit the free and open worship of any religion. Government is not allowed to put any restrictions, whatsoever, on your freedom to peacefully express your beliefs or your right to assemble peacefully for any reason, or to limit your ability to lodge complaints about the government to the government, or to punish you for doing so. The government IS forbidden from passing any law concerning religion. Religion is not to be subject to governmental regulation in any way.

The truth, fellow Americans, is that the first ammendment empowers the individual. The framers of the constitution labored diligently and with great concern for hours and days over the exact wording of every article and ammendment to the constitution so that there would not, and could not be, any doubt as to the intention or meaning of any aspect of that document. In all cases, a literal and precise defining of the written word will reveal the exact intent and meaning thereof. The terminology was never meant to be interpreted or examined or changed due to different circumstances or situations. What was said is what was meant in any case, and that is the truth.

We need to openly expose the lie and the perverting of the constitution, and its treatment of religion that have become reality, and re-enforce the truth which is the law. Truth of law will prevail over perverted reality. Your liberties don’t deny anyone the right to walk away, or to not participate. Dare them to challenge the truth of the constitution and make truth and reality one and the same.

Regarding prayer in our schools:

Washington, D.C. - February 7, 2003

Federal Guidelines on Constitutionally Protected Prayer in Public Elem. and Sec. Schools

Section 9524 of the "Elementary and Secondary Education Act" ("ESEA") of 1965, as amended by the "No Child Left Behind Act of 2001," requires the Secretary of Education to issue guidance on constitutionally protected prayer in elementary and secondary schools.

To Wit:

Each local educational agency must certify in writing by October 1, of each year that it has no policy that prevents or otherwise denies participation in, constitutionally protected prayer in public schools as set forth in these Guidelines. Failure to, in a timely manner or fraudulently certify, may result in withholding of federal funds to that agency.

The Guidelines stress that…

  1. When and where students are permitted to engage in secular verbal or written speech or meetings, they may also engage in prayer or religious expression.
  2. Students may pray when not engaged in school activities or instruction.
  3. They may read their Bibles or other scriptures, say grace before meals, pray or study religious materials with fellow students during recess, the lunch hour or other non-instructional time to the same extent that they may engage in nonreligious activities.
  4. Students may organize prayer groups, religious clubs and "see you at the pole" gatherings
  5. Where student groups are permitted to advertise or announce their meetings, advertise in the student newspaper, use bulletin boards or public address system, or hand out leaflets, schools may not discriminate against students who use these methods to meet to pray.
  6. Students may express their beliefs about religion in homework, artwork, and other written or oral assignments.
  7. Where student speakers are selected using neutral criteria and retain control over the content of the message, they may engage in religious speech or pray in student assemblies or graduation.
  8. Teachers may take part in religious activities where the context indicates they are not participating in their official capacities, and they may meet with student Bible clubs after school. They may also meet with other teachers for prayer to the same extent they engage in secular intercommunications.
  9. They may open class with a minute of silence, and must accommodate students who chose to opt out of instruction which is contrary to the students' religious convictions.

The Secretary of Education has served notice to public schools that they must immediately come into compliance with the new federal law. The message is simple: School officials must not discriminate against students and teachers who choose to pray or engage in religious expression while at school.

Liberals Are Destoying Our Country

Democratic Untruths
An examination of the treason of the congressional left

The democratic members of Congress will do or say anything to advance their socialist agenda and to make themselves appear as always being right and the administration and its supporters appear incompetent. Most of the time what they say to the press or in session is a far cry from reality and is, more often than not, just plain false in its content. They have made a common practice of twisting the reality of events or fabricating their own versions and millions of trusting Americans accept or ignore it all to the detriment of our nation. The dems believe that if you tell a lie enough times people will start believing it.

One big lie they use to do this is that the war on terror, the invasion of Iraq, and the hunt for Al Qaeda, is going very badly. The Dems have, almost to a person, abandoned any similance of support for the war and have gone on record as being against it and for an immediate withdrawal. The worse these struggles are for the American forces the better they look and the worse the Reps look. They make quite the stir by publicly declaring that they were right in their resistance to the war, quoting the latest casualty figures, blasting the president for his mismanagement, and giving the enemy reason to continue their cowardly murder of civilians and our soldiers.

The liberal congressman also tell a tale of Bush invading Iraq to reap profit from the oil reserves there. This one would be laughable if the insurgents battling our forces didn’t count on it to undermine the moral of the coalition forces. If Bush had been after the oil, why were there no reports of tankers filling up and carrying the oil away? Why didn’t we here from the press in other countries about oil being purchased from the Bush administration by foreign governments? There is no grounds for this lie, no evidence of any kind that would even hint at such going on.

Another example is the insistence that President Bush lied to the people when claiming Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and then using that as the reason to go to war. These congressmen and women know very well that Bush honsestly believed the intelligence information about WMD because they, too, believed it and had called for the removal Hussein from power and even military action against Iraq before Bush was ever elected. These people who accuse Bush of deceit regarding WMD in Iraq must be lying about it judging from the collection of actual, verifiable quotes from Washington Post articles , all made by democrats and demanding that the people of America be protected.

www.snopes.com/politics/war/wmdquotes.asp

 

We have since learned that US forces found WMD within weeks of entering Iraq but were under orders not to disclose that information to keep it from falling into the hands of the insurgents and being used against US troops. It was through the efforts of two republican senators that the Defense Department made the information public. Did the democrats say, "Oh really, well we’re sorry then," or offer any apologies or congratulations for the news? No, instead they have made claims such as the WMD found are not the WMD we went to war over, that they were 1991 era wepons, and were degraded to the point of not being dangerous. Neither of these claims have any factual content whatsoever, but when they say these things, people believe them, to the detriment of our nation.

The democratic response


 

The Democrats want one thing more than anything else, all of them want it. They will lie to the press, make grandiose, fantastic claims about the better way they have for America, and even call others liars when they can’t quote the lying statement, can’t provide any evidence that it is a lie, and still shout it to the world everyday, just in the hope that they will get what they want most. It isn’t a better, safer future for America that they seek. It isn’t anything so idealistic. All they want, is to be re-elected at any cost. That means they have to make themselves and their lies seem like the truth and reality of the world, and make the Republicans look as bad and evil as they can, ANYWAY they can.

They are not beyond even more direct action against our society though. The leader of the house and majority leader of the senate, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, both dems, have blocked the vote for approval of some 200 government agency appointees, some for as long as two years. Former US ambassador to the UN, John Bolton, finally quit the position he was filling temporarily because the evil Pelosi blocked the approval and wouldn’t even allow it to be voted on. The FAA can not implement any new policy or procedures because there are only five members of the executive board that should have eleven and a majority can not be obtained. The other six members have been waiting twenty months for their appointment to be approved. The same situation is crippling the Dept. of Interior, Nat’l. Transportation Safety Board, the FEC, FCC, DEA, DOE, DOA, and FDA. Of course, we’ve all heard about the trick Ms. Nancy pulled on delaying the vote on the electronic surveillence matter. Not to mention how she used a loophole in the house rules to avoid voting on the free trade agreement with Colombia. She says she will let it go to a vote once the election is over, knowing that if a dem becomes president they will veto the agreement, regardless of the fact that Colombia was counting on the agreement to continue their emergence from third world status.

The constitution requires the houses of congress to vote on these matters in a timely fashion. The elected officials have all sworn to abide by, and to protect and defend the constitution. Instead, the actions of the democrat members are exactly what is described in the US Code as collusion to disrupt the business of the government, and as treason by giving reason for hope and comfort to the enemies of the USA.

If you have ever read the book or seen the movie of George Orwell’s "1984" you can gain a pretty good insight on how and why the liberals and news networks would like the world to be. In 1984, the government wants lies about a war and their success, and their policies and actions. The truth, having been previously published in newspapers, was simply changed by going back and editing the copies of newspapers and speeches to say they had made the correct statements to begin with, that the lie is the truth. Simple. If anyone calls them a liar and tries to prove it so, they disappear. The liberals in our government and their media cohorts have not been so bold as to start editing back issues of newspapers and video tape, but they have had no problem in claiming to have said things when, in all reality, they said and did just the opposite of what they now claim. And anyone who can read can go back and read the news reports where their words were quoted and see that they are liars. There’s no doubt, the truth is provable, their lies are public record, yet they go on convincing some that they are sincere, patriotic soles who just want to make it all better.

We need to employ the same tactics they use but in reverse. If we tell the real story in as many places and as many times as we possibly can, in anyway we can, maybe the people will start believing the truth and seeing the liberals in congress for the lying anti-Americans they are, and vote them out of office. We can only hope and act accordingly.

Men and Women: Their Relationship

The Character of Women and Men
A Brief Study of How We Differ
 

Intro

This is in no way a formal or scientific discourse. It is only the conclusions I have come to after fifty-two years of life surrounded by females. I had five sisters, no brothers. I was fourth in the series and grew up knowing as fact that women were the superior beings. There was no other philosophy considered in our home. Mom and my three older sisters ruled. Period. And what a life it was. Sisters have friends, girlfriends, and that comes in handy. Sisters tell you what girls like and dislike, and that comes in handy. Sisters are just exceedingly helpful, and very precious too. Sisters are way better than smelly, competitive brothers. Much better.

 
Life With Women

My dad was the most intelligent human I’ve ever encountered. A tool and die supervisor for Boeing Military Division, Dad worked in a realm of 10/1000ths of an inch, tenths he called them. If a machinist could not hold a tolerance of plus or minus three tenths (.0003) all day long he wasn’t much of a machinist and didn’t stay at Boeing very long. In collaberation with James Picor (DeHavilland turbojet designer) Dad designed and built the first turret mill in the world. It was the only machine that can replicate itself, by itself. He was also responsible for the design and build of every tool, die, and jig used in the construction and testing of the B-47’s and B-52’s. That’s why those aircraft, especially the Buff, have had the life they’ve had. My dad, personally responsible. Haha!

The smartest thing that he ever did though, in my opinion, was to willingly subject himself totally to female rule and all that that entailed in our family setting. He always said that if something was so important to Mom or the three girls that they argued with him about it, it was important enough to stand aside and let them have their way, peacefully. Oh, they would have had their way regardless, the only choice to be made by Dad was whether he would make it hard on himself or accept it as reality and be happy with it. Like I said, a very smart man.


Basic Mindsets

Like fire and water, men and women are opposites by nature. Their basic belief patterns are seemingly in opposition. Fire and water can destroy each other, or they can generate fantastic amounts of usable energy. Women and men are no different. Women were concieved with mental code that sees the world’s potential for beauty, health, and harmony. They have a utopian drive that would see the human race socializing and working in harmony to achieve Nirvana for all, and all the time not understanding why it is not already so.

Men, on the other side of the boiler, see the world as it really is, a complex and contrary system of physical laws, exceptions thereto, humans who are less than human, and obstacles to overcome, but all the time working within those constraints to achieve their goals.

Dwell for a moment on the differences between these two outlooks, and then imagine the possibilities it suggests. Men are the realists in a physical way, able to do things with materials and technology. Women are the dreamers of ideals seeing what could be and how it ought to be.

Men are also the softies of the species when it comes to women and love. They will do and say anything, fight, cheat, lie, and betray each other for the love of THE woman. That is nature working to insure the continuation of our species. But it was also meant to be the regulator of the fire/water steam engine.

Women inherently desire perfection and are the anchor in love. They express their desire for a better world to their man in ways that men don’t even realize that they are being given a goal to be achieved. To make his female happier and easier to live with, because you can’t live without them, the man goes about designing and constructing the better world she craves working by within the constraints of the physical world. What Lola wants Larry builds, and then gives to her. A perfect partnership of idealism in concept and realism in design and construction.

Behind every good man stands a what? Of course she does. She wouldn’t stand near a man who didn’t strive to provide her with the Heaven On Earth she has so carefully concieved in imagination. And he wouldn’t know how to spend his day if she wasn’t right there next to him telling him how it needs to be done. He couldn’t anymore ignore her dreams and just go his own way than she could build the world she dreams of without him. Instead, he takes on her dreams and desires as his own and builds both of them a better world and she rewards him in the way he loves best and as only she knows how.

With just a little bit of sensical analysis it does make perfect sense. When you were young and became ill who did you want caring for you? On your birthday who did you rely on for the perfect chocolate cake? When you snuggled into your clean sheets and pajamas at night who did you love for it? The female, that’s who. The nurturing, caring, loving perfectionism is instinctive behavior. It is only reasonable that the world according to women would be a better and happier place to be. There would be no conflict, and no reason for wepaons. All illness would be eradicated and hospitals would be free and doctors and teachers would be rich. All piano lessons would produce concert virtuosos and performances would be continuous in all neighborhood parks. Just take a look at the homes women provide their families. Clean, orderly, comfort to spare, and geared toward her man’s total satisfaction.

Growing up with a dad like mine was easy. He and I got out into the world together every chance we had. Fishing, camping, working on cars, and going to the kinfolk's. At home we watched Red Skelton and Gunsmoke on TV. Every Saturday morning we grabbed mandolin and fiddle and played along with Cal’s Corral artists doing bluegrass and old time, real country music. He taught me math in such a way that it is second nature. He taught me life’s complexities as practiced by bull and cow, stud and mare, and accordingly, how that applied to men and women. He said that the most desirable pleasures in Earthly life came as a result of men and women truly liking each other’s company and expressing that affection physically and with mutual enjoyment. The only comparable but not equal feeling in his mind was the pride and satisfaction that comes from supporting yourself and owning your own piece of the world. To be a compliant, giving, self-sacrificing lover of a good woman is man’s true destiny. We men are all quivering masses of jelly when females show interest. Be proud of it. They like us that way and we all like it when they like us. That is why I believe my dad did such a smart thing by accepting female superiority. He made our females a happy lot of women and they, in turn, made him a very happy and satisfied man. Smart. Really smart.

So, what the blazes does all this have to do with the way things are? Nothing really, but really, everything. Take it or leave it, whatever you wish. But, if you are a typical male of the species a woman and all she is figures relatively high in priority in your life. Isn’t the world beautiful when she is in a loving, generous mood? Oh yeah! OH YEAH! So doesn’t it seem worthwhile to do what you can to make her life enjoyable? Is life her way so bad you can’t live it? Actually, being slave, sex servant, and general mechanic for a good female is, uhhh, well...you know what I mean. So, give in. Make her always the winner. Tell her she’s right and you know it. It can only lead to goodness for you both.

Curing corruption in government

Mother’s Milk
A sure method to rid congress of corruption
When our founding fathers framed our government they knew that man’s nature was one susceptible to the temptations of wordly riches. They knew that corruption was possible and that elected officials would have to be especially careful of the pitfalls that come with power and influence. They all agreed that, even though they had forbid the government from creating any law regarding religion, religion in a person’s life would be a desirable quality that would guide him and influence his actions to the betterment of the nation and be a steering current away from the whirlpool of moral degradation. Being the ethical, spiritual men the founding brothers were, they trusted that the citizens who would enjoy the liberties they would inherit would naturally require and choose men of stature and moral values to lead the nation and would surely not elect anyone who displayed a bent towards weakness of conscience. Oh, have mercy on those Godly, trusting sons of liberty. If only they had known, if only they could have been a bit more prognastic and a lot more cynical.

Since who knows when, the government, to wit the officials elected to serve therein, have adopted a principal by which they determine the merit of pending legislation, qualifications of appointees, priority of budget items, and even the requirement of their attendance at regular sessions of business.

That principal is, "If there is a buck in it, OK. The one with the most bucks for me wins. If you don’t have any bucks for me, don’t even bother. The only loyalty wortwhile is to the greenback."

The normal, accepted course of business, the expected and demanded protocol for government officials has become one of greed, subversion, collusion, bribery, influence peddling, extortion, and outright grand theft from anyone and everyone seeking any favor, decision, or action from or by any of them. Their business creed, "If you can’t pay, go away. "

Political action committees, campaign funds, slush accounts, contract awards, illegal arms sales, drug trafficing, and prostitution have all become the legal tender recognized and demanded by those in public office. In fact, the overwhelming inspiration to seek public office is not the altruistic willingness to serve and improve our nation, but is the guarantee and adopted right of becoming insanely wealthy and never having to earn a dime of it. Jesse Unruh, a state official of California in the 60’s and 70’s, once said, "Money is the mother’s milk of politics, and there’s too many muthas getting too much milk." Mr. Unruh knew politics and what made it work and was not afraid to tell it.

I could go on and on spouting the methods and principals of congressmen and women in their efforts to rob the country and keep us from stopping them, but most any person not deeply sleeping and halfway cognizant knows the truth and can see the true reasons for the deficit, constantly increasing taxes, routine reductions in services and benefits to the public, and countless criminal actions against officials. Greed, the love of money.

Let me now attempt to meet the responsibilty that should be required of anyone publicly complaigning and criticizing anything, I will offer my suggestions for a remedy thereto.

Seeing that,

  • Elected officials are expected to act on behalf of their constituents,
  • Elected Officials are paid very well for their service,
  • Bribery and extortion are real,
  • They need to be free of non-pertinent influences,

 I hereby suggest laws be passed or changed to criminalize the posession of or attempt to posess any form of legal tender (money) by any local, state, or federal official who was elected to office by a general election of the voters. What did I say? Make it illegal for our elected officials to have any money of any kind whatsoever. My law would put a senator in prison for at least ten years if he was found with two dollars cash in his pocket, an undeclared checking or savings account, a jar of pennies under his bed, or even a postage stamp in his wallet. He would suffer the same penalty if he was caught giving college lectures on the side for pay, had an undeclared stock option, or was shown to have received loans, gifts, or any other payouts of cash not including his salary as an official. Essentially, posession of anything that could be used in trade as payment would be a prison sentence.

 In support of that,

  • All elected officials will be required to declare all assets, cash, real property, investments, etc. and to deposit said assets into an escrow to be held active but unavailable to the official as long as he holds elected office.
  •  The official will be paid a regular, considerable salary for their service and, in addition, will be alotted an all encompassing expense account to cover all of his and his family’s needs during the term of his service. All transportation costs such as gasoline, vehicle maintenance, insurance, all food, clothing, medical, and utility costs, all entertainment such as movie and stage theater tickets, sports events, concerts, vacation costs, books, games, toys, fishing/camping gear, etc., all mortgage/rent payments, declared and approved loan payments, virtually anything and everything he needs to provide a normal, upper middle class lifestyle for him and his family will be provided and paid for by the government, but he will never see a dime of it himself. Even postage will be provided via the congressional post office.
  •  The official will be prohibited from any income generating activity such as speaking tours, book signings and publishings, lobbying, or anything that could cause him to receive cash or credit while in the public office.

 If you implement the statute and impose severe penalties there will still be a few who find a way to get around the law and sell the power we have bestowed on them to do our work to the highest bidder. But, is there any doubt that such a law would deter those whose hearts and minds were not criminally predetermined? Don’t you think that a law such as this would remove the surety of easy wealth as the main reason for most of those seeking office and thereby cull the undesirables?

 Make the law a promise to incarcerate them for ten or twenty, or even fifty years for violating the trust of the voters and I truly believe we would not be in the financial and legal state the government has put us in for very much longer.

That Was Then...

There Came a Time...

…when a generation was called upon to save the world. And they did. That generation was the men and women of the United States Armed Forces that served in and, in alliance with brothers from like minded nations, won World War II. They were the parents of the baby-boomers, my dad, and my aunts and uncles, their cousins and friends, all of whom saw the need and dedicated themselves to the preservation of freedom and liberty in the world.

Just as dedicated as those in uniform were those who, for thousands of reasons, could not join their loved ones overseas but were just as zealous in the cause as those doing the dying. In a bigger than life way, these homeland soldiers played as big a part, even though not as direct nor costly, as the marines, sailors, grunts, and pilots did each day. They produced, and then produced some more, then produced ten times that much in half as much time. They produced enough, not just for our war needs, but for the needs of British bombing victims, which was the entire population of Great Britain, and the British forces via the Lend/Lease program. These patriots farmed wheat, corn, potatoes and other foods. They bred cattle, milked cows, made cheese, manufactured tanks, airplanes, jeeps, rifles, ammunition, cannon, bombs, submarines, radios, tents, cots, uniforms, medical supplies, gasoline and diesel fuels, tires, parachutes, cameras, blimps, portable bridges, ships, and every other conceivable necessity of war, and a lot of the comforts of home. They produced enough of it all that the combined industrial efforts of Japan, Italy, and Germany could not come close to matching it.

US soldiers marching into French villages after driving the Vermacht out did not go begging from the residents for the comforts of their homes, rather they went their way passing out American chocolate, cigarettes, cakes, clothing, and other "luxuries" to the people of the village. Many a German commander was demoralized when they realized that the Americans had the means not only to provide every soldier with all necessities of the war, but also every letter written to him from the States, and were even able to deliver his birthday cake, Christmas gifts, pictures of homelife, and the latest Hollywood productions with ease and little or no thought as to the cost. There was just no way on Earth that any force was going to best the Americans, not when they brought the entire industrial might of America with them to war. It was just overwhelming. Overwhelming is what it was. In their own, absolutely necessary way, the army of stateside workers played as big a part in the victory over the Axis powers as the armed forces. Without the goods and materials produced by them our forces would not, could not have been victorious.
Sadly though, that was then, and this is now. Sure, the nation pulled together and unified back then, and again against our enemy of today when our World Trade Center towers became the Pearl Harbor of 2001. We were all together united in the cause when the Taliban was defeated in Afghanistan and a new democracy was born. We were even cheering the armored infantry in their valiant dash across Iraq and seemingly effortless defeat of the elite Iraqi Palace Guard.

But the resolve faded when, after the easy work was done, the real nitty gritty of a guerilla war ensued. Helped along by press reports only of US casualties and shortcomings, the homeland populace grew weary and their zeal paled. When it didn’t become an instantaneous, overwhelming success at nation building, the support and patriotic fervor diminished, and then died completely. No homeland heroes this bunch. Our enemies in the struggle, seeing the lack of resolve in the spoiled citizens at home, gained moral strength that, if they could just cause another year of trouble, casualties, and struggle for the American soldiers, the cry would become louder to "Bring Our Troops Home!" And it has done them well to do so, because that sentiment has become the dominant voice of "the people", deceived and spurred on by many of our congressional leaders. They are cowards and traitors these liberal fat cats in congress. With superhuman restraint I will only say shame on them. SHAME ON THEM !! They, alone, will be held responsible if they succeed in fomenting failure in this struggle.

A Peaceful, Loving Religion ?

We of the western world have been told many times that Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance. We have been told that Christianity, Judaism, and Islam all worship the same god, but take our doctrines from the teachings of different prophets, and that that fact should not be cause for contention between the three faiths. We have been told that Muslims living in the USA are, for the most part, moderate, decent, and tolerant of the beliefs of others and have no plan to dominate the world or to convert all others to their way of worship. Well, I, for one, don’t believe it and I have put together a list of things that should cause more than a doubt in anyone’s mind.

Evidence as to the fallacy of Muhammad as a prophet…

  1. Muhammad hated Jews and Christians from early childhood, before his revelation as a prophet. He considered them arrogant and stubborn in their confidence in their god and their tenacity toward their faith. The humiliation and denegration of these haughty people consumed his being throughout his life.
  2. Only after several people, including a Christian monk, had expressed the opinion that Muhammad had a special aire to him, and that he had the look of one favored by the gods, did Muhammad reveal that he had been visited by the angel Gabriel and that Alla had chosen him as his only prophet.
  3. Throughout his life everytime he changed his teachings or added something new to his doctrine, Muhammad would, days later, miraculously experience a revelation from Alla demanding the change be made. Not only was he a prophet but he could read the mind of Alla, it seems. It was always the prophet making the decisions for change and new policy and later, conveniently, having Alla reveal it to him.
  4. The self proclaimed goal of Muhammad as the prophet of Alla was to bring all of humanity into the light of Alla and to eliminate, even by violent means, all those who rejected Alla and Islam. From the beginning of Muhammad’s life as a prophet, he adamantly demanded that every person alive must be made to see the superiority of Islam and its god, and he created a process he called jihad to bring about the success of that overiding, singular doctrine of his new religion. Knowing this to be the single most important doctrinal requirement of Muhammad’s new religion, what is there to attract peace loving, moderate people to Islam? What great reason is there for anyone who does not want to dominate the world to adopt a theology requiring that they do so? Are these moderate Muslims afraid of the penalty if they don’t believe or convert? Some admit as much. Or do they hide their true loyalty to increase the possibility of success in their quest for jihad? The radical leaders claim that is more truthful. Muhammad declared that the only thing more evil than a non-believer was an apostate, a Muslim who had turned from Islam to Christianity or Judaism. His policy regarding the converts was that they receive no clemency or pardon, but that they be beheaded as devils that had heard and understood, yet rejected his teachings. Muhammad started several full-scale wars to inflict this punishment on entire nations who had converted from Islam or who rejected Alla. A religion of peace? I beg to differ.
  5. If, as they claim, Islam worships the god of Abraham, why does their doctrine teach of a warmongering, intolerant, murdering god and not the loving, fatherly god taught by both the Jewish and Christian faiths to be the god of Abraham? Why is Alla so different in nature to Jehova? Did he become angry all at once when Muhammad was born? Are we to believe that shortly after the birth of Muhammd God suddenly ceased to be what he had always been, and changed His nature from that he had been known by to the blood thirsty, intolerant tyrant that Muhammad says He is? Are we to suddenly forget all the prophets like Ezekial, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Joshua, and David, and the apostles, and Paul, all those who foretold or witnessed the fullfilment of God’s purpose and promises and take the rantings of a man who proclaimed himself a prophet as the truth instead?
  6. The prophet Muhammad proclaimed from the beginning of his teaching that Jesus was not the Son of God, only a lesser prophet, and that Alla would never lower himself to the point of having a son. Muhammad also said that Christ had not been crucified but, instead, a look alike had been hung on the cross to fool the masses. Furthermore, Muhammad proclaimed that Jesus had knowingly deceived the world regarding the will and purpose of God, and that Jesus would, after the world ends, come forth and admit that all He had taught, love thy neighbor, the forgiving nature of God, God’s love of His children, were all lies and that He knew it when He was teaching it. The god I know did not have a liar for a son nor a murderer for a prophet.
  7. One of the requirements of being a Muslim is to accept Muhammad as the ultimate model of a perfect human in all things including appearance, mannerisms, speech, style of walking, eating habits, facial expressions, etc., and to emulate him in every aspect of your life, and to become the perfect duplicate of Muhammad in order to make the world a more perfect place to live, and so all people would be perfect.

My friends, we have been promised by the world of Islam to be killed if we do not convert and worship Alla. They have, by their own laws, warned us of their intention to faithfully follow the jihad of their prophet as their only reason for existence on Earth. For 1400 years the Muslims have faithfully gone about the business of subjugating entire nations and races of people to their way, and have murdered millions of non-believers in that quest. We all need to desperately reconsider the words of those who say Islam is a valid, peaceful religion. Consider their motives and purpose in their teachings. Consider the fact that from the beginning, Muslims have grown their religion exclusively by the sword and that their own written history lists civilizations vanquished and lands taken as bloody proof of their success in pleasing their god. I say we must believe in their promises and actions and not their god, accept not their belief in Alla but their determination to kill in his name, and instead of tolerating their religious views tolerate the necessity of killing them first wherever they are, in their mosques in the USA, in caves in Pakistan, and in the streets of Baghdad, and have faith in the knowledge that God in Heaven will prevail in the end and forgive our need to kill, and His children will inherit the Earth as meek and threatened faithful who, when pushed to the brink, asserted their faith and saved their own lives, in His name and for His glory, Amen.

Take Them At Their Word - Islamic Fascists: What they want and why

There are many people who, after reading all the news articles and seeing all the TV news reports, still choose not to believe the words of the radical Islamic fascists as to their intentions regarding the rest of the world population and their governments. These non-believers go on purporting that negotiations in a peaceful, respectful way can solve the differences between radical Islam and the non-Islamic nations.

There is only one scenario where discussion of differences would be successful and that meeting would go something like this…

  • Non-Muslim: "Yes, I want to negotiate a peace treaty with you so that all people can live without war and respect each other."
  • Radical Muslim: "Yes, I too would like that treaty with you. Here is our proposal. 1) All non-Muslims shall denounce their citizenship of and allegiance to whatever nation they now reside in. 2)They shall all swear that there is only the One God of the Universe, Alla, and vow to worship Him and enslave himself to Him forever. 3) They shall vow to be governed by the laws of Alla as written in the Kouran under penalty of death. This shall be their state."
  • Non-Muslim: "But sir, that is not what I meant by "Respect". I meant that Muslims would recognize the right of individuals to worship as they believe, not all becoming Muslims."
  • Radical Muslim: "You reject the proposal as not being respectful of individuals wishes?"
  • Non-Muslim: "Well, yes, I do."
  • Radical Muslim: "I have offerred to you our only offer, to become a slave to the One God, Alla, and you have rejected it. Under the law of the Kouran non believers are infidels and pollute the precious air Alla has provided only for His faithful. You cannot defile the precious air any longer. Guards, make it so he breathes no more!!"
  • Whoosh, thump.

I didn’t say who would be successful in that scenario. The Islamic fascists only see it one way. You submit to the laws of Alla as they interpret them, or you die. Period. No second choice, no negotiating, no live and let live. These people have vowed to their God, which they believe in with more apparent zeal than any western civilization in their God, to conquer the entire Earth and bring all people to the sweet oneness with Alla.

James Brandon, reporter for the Christian Science Monitor, quotes Abu Abdullah, a radical Muslim member of Hizb ut-Tahrir, the Party of Liberation, as saying, "President Bush says that we want to enslave people and oppress their freedom of speech but what we want is to free all people from being slaves of men and make them slaves of Allah."1

We have all heard the insane ravings of the whacked out Iranian president, but why do some choose not to believe him? I think they believe that he’s crazy and does not represent the feelings of the Iranian people. Are they aware that ever since the hostage incident in Iran in the 70s eighty percent or moreof the people of Iran spend between ninety minutes and four hours every Friday after prayer, Friday being their holiest weekday, chanting "Death to America, Death to America" on their own volition, not having to be persuaded?

Why do the Islamic fascists hate western civilizations so? Jealousy is the overall contributing factor. Up until the Ottoman Empire conquered Persia, modern day Iran and Iraq, that country was the most powerful, longest living nation on Earth. Ever since then they have considered it their destiny to return to that stature and reclaim their previous glory. There is only one problem. Ever since the demise of the Soviet Union there is only one nation in the world that can possibly claim the title of most powerful, and that is the U. S. A. So, in addition to their religious mis-beliefs they have the green eyed monster of jealousy eating away at their gut as not being the most powerful nation, and the fully intend on doing whatever it takes to make it so again.

As quoted in the Christian Science Monitor article referenced above, Abu Mohammed states, "Islam obliges Muslims to possess power so that they can intimidate - I would not say terrorize - the enemies of Islam. In the beginning, the Caliphate" the government of the Caliph or Supreme Leader of Earthly Islam, "would strengthen itself internally and it wouldn't initiate jihad. But after that we would carry Islam as an intellectual call to all the world," he says. "And we will make people bordering the Caliphate believe in Islam. Or if they refuse then we'll ask them to be ruled by Islam." And after that? Abu Mohammed pauses and fiddles with his Pepsi before replying. "And if after all discussions and negotiations they still refuse, then the last resort will be a jihad to spread the spirit and the rule of Islam," he says, smiling. "This is done in the interest of all people, to get them out of darkness and into the light of Islam."1

You of the western world who refuse to believe these people and what they say, WAKE UP. It is not me saying these things, it is not, surprisingly, the mass media making this up to raise ratings. It is not the President "lying" as you often charge.
 
It is the radical, fascist leaders of Islam and their followers who are laying down the rules of war, and they aren’t even considering the Geneva Convention. They only see one rule that the world must follow, and they MUST follow it, and that is "Submit to Alla and His law or die as infidels".
Realize the truth and its consequences now. Pull together with the freedom loving brave hearts and reject them and their god as being who you will worship.
 
Tender to them that which they demand of us. Submit to tolerance of other religions and nationalities OR DIE. It is much, much more than they have offered to us.
