Archive for the ‘Thoughts of the Day’ Category

When I shelved books at a local library (in the liberal state of Minnesota) years ago, young adult was Sweet Valley High. The content is a lot more mature now. Bookstores have mature content in the children’s section. That’s why I decided to list all my books as adult fiction. I figure no one will know what ya means anymore.

Meanwhile, I’ve gotten back into a routine of writing, editing and typing. So, I’m making progress.

Enabling Addiction Is Not Love

Drug addiction is one of the few things people can get involved in that is still considered a problem — something that needs to be repented of. Still, there are efforts to normalize even this behavior despite the fact that it’s obviously self-destructive and destructive of others. The consequences can be rather overt. Drug addicts rarely claim to be happy people. The high doesn’t last. The withdrawal is crushing, and it almost always requires debasing yourself to finance it.

And yet, there are always people who equate unconditional love with unconditional support of the addiction. And it’s true that the addict believes the codependent enabler is the person who loves them the most while they are in the throes of the addiction. But in actuality, it is the person willing to risk losing the relationship if the person doesn’t repent who truly loves the addict. And if the addict repents, they almost always see that.

The same is true for other addictions as well, including the addiction to sin in general. Love is wanting to see a person freed from the addiction from the high — free to reconcile themselves with God.

Using a person’s addiction to gain control and influence over them, so you can artificially become their “special person” isn’t love. In other words, encouraging or enabling them to sin, so they’ll need you and, therefore, make you feel special isn’t love.

The Evil of New York’s Proposal 1! Vote NO!

Proposal 1 coming up for vote in New York is evil. It’s an attack on religious freedom. Many people in the past came to this country to escape religious persecution — to avoid having to choose between their lives and God. One of the major components of the US Constitution is protecting citizens from having to make that choice. Proposal 1 aims to replace a real Constitutional right (freedom of religion) with new rights based on their woke pseudo-religion. The woke aren’t content with their own free will. They are bent on forcing their will on others under penalty of law, if need be. The woke don’t respect other people’s religious beliefs. If you don’t agree with wokeism, you will be made to pay. Don’t want to kill an unborn child? Too bad, no exceptions, according to Kamala Harris. Don’t want your child groomed for pedophilia? Physically mutilated in the name of gender identity politics? Too bad. The children don’t have to have to have their parent’s consent, nor do the parents have the right to know. So after the children are brainwashed by perverted adults, they can be easily conditioned to be exploited by them.

The states think they own your children. In fact, they already think they own everyone who resides in those states. And they want to own everyone in the country, too.

I’ve become convinced it’s not okay to abandon dissenters in woke states to woke tyranny — to woke people, who don’t respect other people’s free will and autonomy. What if residents in places like New York and California can’t just leave? They are fellow US citizens and their and their children’s Constitutional and God-given rights are being stripped away from them. Even more disturbing, what if the Dems take the presidency, the US House and Senate, and thereby pack the Supreme Court with woke justices? Then, they can rule against the states on every decision. Then, there will be nowhere for anyone in this country to run to. Then, we’ll all be in the same position as those in New York. I hope those trapped in New York are able to dodge this latest bid at total woke tyranny! I hope all Christian and Jewish people pray and vote and conscientious objectors vote against this latest attack against our freedom. Vote Republican down the ballot! And if you live in New York vote “NO” to Proposal 1!

Another Attempt at the Triumph of the Woke Will.

The 2024 Olympics began with an opening ceremony which blasphemed God and His Messiah, Jesus Christ. That alone should tell you all you need to know about the kind of people you’re dealing with. Of course, they weren’t done there. Besides, in effect, dedicating the Olympic Games to Satan, they also engaged in various displays of sadism. There were the cardboard beds that were supposed to reduce carbon footprints. A human life isn’t allowed to make an impact on the world around him/her — unless, of course, that person is elite. The athletes in the Olympic Village were also not provided enough non-vegan alternatives for their diets. You do have to, in the very least, transition to a vegan diet. It would have seemed to me a simple thing to give the athletes a menu survey if the dieticians really couldn’t figure out what the demand would be for non-vegan food rather than punishing the non-vegan athletes.

And then there’s the fact the athletes weren’t supplied air conditioning during a heat wave. You’d think that for seventeen days these woke elites could make an exception. After all, how many exceptions do they make for themselves every day? But for the most exceptional athletes in the general population, no exception is permitted to be made. The elite have to take a hard line on us peons. And what better way than to make an example of the most accomplished of our representatives?

Why not humiliate and shame them publically? Why not get them to swim in a river of excrement in order to earn the shiny trinkets and accolades of the elite class who now have a monopoly on all the attention and shiny trinkets. How much amusement these woke elites, these sadists must have gained having these prize non-elites debase themselves for their approval. They even have had one of their elected stooges show how it’s perfectly fine to dive into a river of human filth in order to compel the athletes to do the same. Of course, it’s okay for her. She’s just a peon like the rest of us — another non-elite who they can laugh at — so desperate to serve her woke masters that she’s willing to throw her health away to do so.

So then came the boxing match between a biological woman and a person who identifies as a woman despite previously failing to meet the International Boxing Association eligibility rules.

“The International Boxing Association (IBA) and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) are at odds over whether Khelif should be able to compete in women’s competitions. IBA president Umar Kremlev told Russian news agency TASS that Khelif and another boxer had ‘XY chromosomes,’ the typical genetic makeup of males, and that is why they were disqualified from the World Champion­ships in 2023, Reuters reported. However, the IBA, which is Russian-led, is itself controversial, having been ousted from Olympic competition oversight over ‘governance, finance, and ethical issues,’ Reuters reported.” (McBride, 2024)

Still, it’s clear that the Olympic Committee in their great woke wisdom has decided to use gender identity rather than biological sex to determine eligibility. “Also fueling controversy is the fact that the Olympics stopped testing for gender in 1999. ‘The decision to abandon compulsory gender verification in Olympic competition was taken in 1999, following many years of debate,’ according to a 2008 Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine article, ‘Intersex and the Olympic Games.’ ‘As with previous Olympic boxing competitions, the gender and age of the athletes are based on their passport,’ the IOC says.” (McBride, 2024)

The only rational criteria to determine eligibility should be biological sex. If they allow anyone who identifies as a woman to participate in women’s sports, eventually no woman will make the cut, and it will all be biological males in sports. Is that the point?

I personally think they mostly just enjoy watching a woman get shamed and beaten myself. I think the woke are moving us toward a sadistic society where non-elite people are conditioned to be masochists. I think if they have their way they will have us giving our will over to them and to Satan for a couple of pats on the back and a few golden trinkets. Then, if that doesn’t work they will try to force us to submit our will to them for food and water, for energy, for medicine, for shelter, for survival. Yes, this Olympics is a preview for the world the woke want us all to be living and dying in — a world straight out of Dante’s Inferno. A world where they not only challenge our right to free will, but they challenge God’s will as well. And it all started with the blaspheming of God and His Messiah, Jesus Christ. One cannot underestimate or condone the significance of that.

Attack Meritocracy, Reward Mediocrity

Two categories of people who tend to be picked on are people who underperform the group and those who outperform the group. People who are bullied can be nice people, but they can also be people who would have been bullies themselves if circumstances had broken their way.

There are plenty of well-performing narcissists in the world, but it appears as though there are even more underperforming ones. But then, with narcissists even being perceived of as average is considered by them to be a form of bullying since it means they won’t be getting the praise and attention they covet.

Wokeism is basically a movement of narcissists, so one of its features is a preoccupation with making these underperforming narcissists into some kind of victim class. What I have been seeing is contests rigged in favor of narcissists from a woke-created victim class. It is clear the contest is unfair in the eyes of the non-woke audience and participants. The chosen “winner” is not the best and/or isn’t even qualified to participate. But their winning achieves a victory for the narcissistic woke movement. It gives the narcissist their narcissistic supply of attention and praise — something they feel they have been unjustly deprived of. It also gives them the credibility of being declared the winner by people with the power and authority to bequeath the recognition — even if it obviously isn’t true. Those same power people can even punish the people who object to the unfairness of the narcissist’s adoration bash and refuse to participate.

Yes, you can’t be allowed to refuse to participate. You certainly aren’t allowed to have a contest where one of their own can’t be declared by them to be the winner. And the reason they can’t be declared the winner is because they simply are not qualified to win. No, all eyes must be on the narcissist — even if they’re scornful eyes. And the narcissist must also be able to revel in the defeated look on the rightful winner’s face as the narcissist gets their revenge for their own mediocrity by stealing the winner’s reward for themselves.

The Unthinkable

I have to wonder where this push that is being promoted by the WHO, the WEF, and the UN to sexualize children originally came from. Apparently, the idea that children are sexual beings stems from the writings of pedophiles from many years ago. But back then people had the sense not to talk about it publicly. What possible purpose does it serve to have children engage in sex acts before they can distinguish fantasy from reality on their own? When they are basically at the mercy of adults to tell them what reality is? And if the adults are lying to them, delusional, or invested in creating a reality they wish existed but doesn’t? What then? What happens to the children? I can’t even remember my life before the age of three. Now children are being groomed as babies for sexual exploitation. Plus, they are also now pushing for permanent physical and/or psychological changes to be made to these children.

In any event, I don’t believe the rush to sexualize children is for anyone’s benefit but the benefit of adult pedophiles. I don’t believe children are sexual beings, and I don’t see where children are benefited by forcing sexualization on them at an early age. Adults have enough trouble dealing with their sexuality. Linking the desperate need for love that a child has with the sexual exploitation tendency of a sexual predator is just a nauseating prospect to consider.

So, I think it’s important to consider the possibility that this whole movement of turning young boys into girls (which can’t be authentically done since human beings are not frogs) is really just a manipulation tool by a niche of pedophiles to create victims for themselves. There are a group of pedophiles whose preferred victims are boys who are made to pass as females then sexually exploited. So, it is very possible that the root of this phenomenon is merely an attempt by those perverts to gain access to America’s sons and use them as fodder for their perversions. And after these victims are exploited and emotionally destroyed, they will then throw these victims away when they age out of being attractive to them. To parents tempted to serve their children up to this horror show, at least consider the possibility that the narrative being pushed that the children want this is in fact a lie. And that these pedophiles are now merely sourcing the victims of their twisted predilections with our sons and daughter as they have been doing with children all over the world.

Their Views On Our Future Prospects

It seems there is no longer any attempt to maintain anything. It’s all being allowed to fall apart. The thinking appears to be highly short-term. There used to be consideration for both the short and the long term. Instead, there is this sense that everyone is trying to butcher the cash cow and get their share of the meat before it’s gone. There is the sense that people are trying to wring all the blood out of the middle class. But wringing the middle class out of its discretionary income through inflation and higher interest rates has long-term repercussions and I doubt the rich and the economists are too stupid to realize this. For example, what will the banks be left with if people can no longer afford to maintain their homes? A surefire way to ruin a house is to allow the roof to deteriorate. What will happen when the middle class can no longer afford to buy the goods from small businesses — the major, still existing employer of American citizens? Can they really not realize the domino effect that will ensue if they rid us of all our money? Or, is it they believe we are transitioning away from the economic paradigm we had all grown up with, and it will soon be replaced by one with extreme wealth coupled with extreme poverty? Where the majority work for no more than room and board — if we’re fortunate enough to afford even that much?

Human Beings Are Supposed to Add Structure to Things

Human beings were given dominion over the Earth by God. We are supposed to be stewards — to add structure to the chaos. There seems to be an ideological belief that we should let things run wild — animals, children, plants. They seem to think that every time we intervene it’s somehow evil. But really what is the benefit exactly to allowing things to go to seed? Are pets and children who lack structure really happier? Aren’t they generally fearful and insecure if they’re sensitive and bullies if they’re not sensitive? And then there are the plants — even letting the plants grow uncontrolled has caused problems by contributing to a heinous wildfire problem.

And yet, the belief against sensical rules, structure, discipline, and responsibility persists. Right now, we’re in a rut. Our society can’t go on this way forever without structure and personal responsibility. We are still living off of the fruits of the hard work of past generations. Eventually, the stockpiles will be depleted, the infrastructure will collapse like the Rapidan Dam partially did in Minnesota, and the stores will close. Food and clean water will become scarce. Law and order will be a distant memory. Even if we’re “rescued” by an authoritarian government that promises to re-establish societal structure, don’t assume that will save you. Don’t forget that the main focus of these rescuers is to reduce the human population down to one billion people. So, wouldn’t it be better to add the structure back to our society ourselves rather than relying on these people’s “help.”
