Even your name calling, which is wonderfully creative, does not mar the gravitas of your writing. The human condition is deeply tragic, and you provide examples of why this is. The subtext is always spiritual warfare, or at least it seems that way to me. <br /><br />Congratulations on the new baby! Every baby born is a brand new chance for the human race. May I suggest the name Freedom.

He could not have a better father to raise him in justice, truth and the love of freedom. How about naming him after one of the archangels?<BR/><BR/>Please remember my last letter. This world will NEVER be a paradise - it was created as a place of learning and trial for us. Nothing here is permanent. The real and everlasting world exists in a higher dimension of the universe, created by a God whose love is beyond understanding.<BR/><BR/>This world is run by an imperfect entity appointed by God to run the "school for souls" with an inflexible Rule Book. There is no mercy or forgiveness with that one, only justice and punishment. We imagine Satan as unjust, because WE are. But no - Satan is the essence of Justice. The reason we think his justice capricious is because we think we are who we are. Not so. We are immortal souls experiencing one of a succession of life lessons which will eventually make us wise enough to avoid having to repeat grades.<BR/><BR/>Our minds cannot contain the truth of how magnificent and beautiful God is. When we get to see God, our souls will literally laugh at all the suffering, and believe it or not, we will look back at all the pain and anguish, and say to God, Thank you for every moment of it, the knowledge of Your compassion is so wonderful, it is more than worth the price we had to pay.<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, here we are struggling in school, which we cannot avoid doing. We did not choose to come here - God sent us.<BR/><BR/>I read on your blogs and from your respondents a sad catalog of sorrows. These complaints are as nothing compared to what billions of other humans (not to even begin to consider the immense suffering of animals) have suffered down through the eons. All I can say about it, after having been royally screwed and victimized time and time again in this life, is this: That if the great Jehovah cannot finesse the scales of justice so as to finally settle all the trillions of scores, it is folly to expect human beings to do so. Or to even entertain the hope of it.<BR/><BR/>Won't happen. What you see is what you get. Yesterday, today, tomorrow and always. This world can never change, because Jehovah-Satan is there exacting punishments for long-forgotten offences.<BR/><BR/>There is only one way out of this cycle of pain. Step back, and whatever Jehovah-Satan throws at us, accept it and feel within us, "Forgiveness is not an occasional act. It is a permanent attitude."<BR/><BR/>This is a reflection of the spirit of God. Once we sincerely refuse to ask for vengeance, which can only be had in this plane of existence where the crimes were committed, and accept humbly whatever we have to pay for our own forgotten crimes, once we truly live to the depths of our beings the command: "Judge not, lest ye be judged," God will appear, and say, you have learned the futility of judging and being judged. You have learned My lesson, which is eternal compassion for the weakness of man, and forgiveness for man's ignorance. You have nothing more to learn. Supper's on the table and your day is over. Come home now.<BR/><BR/>Yours in the spirit,<BR/>Lemuel Gulliver.<BR/><BR/>PS: For those of us still enjoying the show: RE. the Murrah building mentioned by Anonymous, there are some great mysteries there, if we still care about one more manifestation of Satan's bungled rule of this world. Go online and try to find a list of the names of the victims and/or what agencies they worked for - you can't. At least, I cannot find one anywhere. I have been told, but cannot confirm it, that of all the many agencies in that building, the only one empty that morning was the BATF. I have been told it was empty - everyone was given or took the day off. Curious.<BR/><BR/>Also, you are, of course, in my opinion absolutely correct in your ongoing assessments - the Government and all its minions of human "justice" are simply servants of Satan. They are. Satan rules this world by appointment from God, and they are Satan's delegates. (Imagine - those who run for office, or set themselves up to judge and punish other human beings, are servants of Satan doing the work of Satan. What utter folly. Do you think they might be horrified to learn the truth of whom it is they serve?) <BR/><BR/>We have to decide if we are going to join in Satan's game, or step aside and refuse to take part. But do not believe for a moment that stepping aside will cause Satan to leave you alone. No, he will redouble his efforts to drag you back in - the last thing he wants is for one of his captive souls to escape. It takes enormous willpower and humility and complete reliance on the infinite and powerful compassion of the One True Lord, to resist the immense psychic power of Satan. I myself fail daily, and get sucked in again, even though I know what is going on.<BR/>- LGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-61880567296357831432009-01-19T09:19:00.000-07:002009-01-19T09:19:00.000-07:00Congrats on the new addition.

We went over to my grnadmother's house for a Sunday afternoon of conversation and bread and circuses (American Football). I went to get pizza and returned without incident. <BR/><BR/>Let me say here, I don't get involved in any traffic road rage as my business name is on my car. I pull over for tailgaters and let them by and go out of my way to be a peaceful person in all of my actions.<BR/><BR/>When we returned to my car, after dinner, it was dark so I couldn't immediately see the damage to my car. I opened the hatchback and the glass looked like there was frost on it, but none of the other cars had any frost. So I opened the hatch and glass started to fall into the cargo area and I thought, this is not good.<BR/><BR/>Well, I carefully closed the hatch and found that the rear window was smashed and the coward didn't even have the courtesy to do me a solid and hit it in the middle, where it would do the least damage. He or she hit it right where the window meets the hatch. Damaging the hatch as well as destroying the window.<BR/><BR/>The area of my window that made someone so mad, you ask? I had a Ron Paul '08 sticker right where the person hit it with a baseball bat or some other object. It made me angry and sad. I drove around with that sticker on my car since August of '07 without any problems. <BR/><BR/>Now that the new bipartisan leadership has been installed, I get a taste of the new, inclusive, everybody's different regime, except I don't get to have any free speech, because the brownshirts will intimidate and destroy property to drive their point home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-68008066187863407352009-01-16T11:15:00.000-07:002009-01-16T11:15:00.000-07:00The photo captioned: Sic semper tyrannisThe BD let...The photo captioned: Sic semper tyrannis<BR/><BR/><BR/><B>The BD let the BATF remove their wounded.</B><BR/><BR/>That was the kind of <I>mercy and decent behavior</I> that demonstrates who held the moral highground.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-55501291805213024272009-01-16T11:09:00.000-07:002009-01-16T11:09:00.000-07:00I seriously cannot credit the amount of attention ...I seriously cannot credit the amount of attention that these White survival types or whatever nomenclature one cares to use, as to being any real threat.<BR/><BR/>I was reading in the news the other day about the various Federal agencies, who all, like State, municipal and other law enforcement groups, are trained by the ADL, the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, monitoring "White supremacist chatter", really, <B>CHATTER</B>.<BR/><BR/>Bill where have we seen that WORD used before?<BR/><BR/>I know that the Canadian press discussed in relation to a case where a Polish immigrant to Canada, TOMAZ WINNICKI, IIRC, a kid about oh 22 or something like that. Who was imprisoned in Canada for posting messages about violent crime in Toronto that were insensitive, the news report mentioned that not only were various agents of let's say "religious group" were posting inflammatory statements on Stormfront but also undercover RCMP officers.<BR/><BR/>WHOA!<BR/><BR/>Recall in Germany the NDP leadership was almost ALL German government undercover agents. That scandal rocked the press there some years back.<BR/><BR/>The question I have for you Bill is when they grabbed those 2 boys in Tennessee, who were GIVEN a sawed-off shotgun, A FEDERAL FELONY, and then the Federal Bureau of Investigation was TIPPED off. WHO GAVE THE KIDS THE SHOTGUN, who tipped off the FBI?<BR/><BR/>The whole plot, dressing in White tails and top hats, and etc is LUDICROUS. That they were enticed, by WHOEVER GAVE THE SHOTGUN and made the call, to CROSS STATE LINES, is VERY DISTURBING.<BR/><BR/>You know our liberty is in jeopardy. They took the babies from this couple in New Jersey this week.<BR/>The cops said NO ALLEGATIONS OF CHILD ABUSE, yet they took the babies.<BR/><BR/>The family had made headlines over a bakery not decorating the birthday cake of the little boy, whose name was ADOLF HITLER.<BR/><BR/>In fact the children attending the party were an ethnic cross section of America, oops doesn't sound like a hate-filled racist to me.<BR/><BR/>But daddy doesn't believe in the Holocaust or parts of it, and has a nazi flag in the house. So his kids are gone. Similar case in Canada last year children taken from the home because a 2nd grader went to school and drew a swastika in felt pen on her arm.<BR/><BR/>BIG BROTHER is the DANGER.<BR/>DEMOCIDE, check it out.<BR/><BR/>The handful of "White Power" boys in America can't be much over a thousand I would think. If you include all those who mouth off on bulletin boards maybe what? 3,000?<BR/><BR/>Timothy McVeigh is always brought up. Well if the GOVERNMENT STORY is the true one then why did McVeigh do it? WHITE POWER?<BR/><BR/>No he was at Waco watching the babies burn. He KNEW there a rainbow of different people in there, from all over the world.<BR/><BR/>Yet he cried and vowed revenge.<BR/><BR/>Wouldn't a Nazi-type be filled with GLEE over people of different races and ethnicities who worked and loved together getting killed?<BR/><BR/>Outside of OKC which was obviously not a "White Supremacist" event, what IS the danger from alcoholic shaved head goofballs?<BR/><BR/>Or 12 people dressing up and Sieg Heiling in a government enclosed, "FREE SPEECH ZONE"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-65435390127795876112009-01-16T10:17:00.000-07:002009-01-16T10:17:00.000-07:00Will Grigg?A freakin' genius.Will Grigg?<BR/><BR/>A freakin' genius.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-9304935529634425472009-01-16T10:15:00.000-07:002009-01-16T10:15:00.000-07:00"What is necessary is for people to decide that th..."What is necessary is for people to decide that they love liberty more than they despise their political enemies..."<BR/><BR/>Wow.<BR/><BR/>Another worthy 'Griggism' I'll have to commit to memory.<BR/><BR/>Does anybody write it better than Will G?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-72818923591741209192009-01-16T09:50:00.000-07:002009-01-16T09:50:00.000-07:00Will:A hearty congratulations on your anticipation...Will:<BR/><BR/>A hearty congratulations on your anticipation of a new family member. May the Lord protect this little one and his loving family during the tumultuous times ahead.<BR/><BR/>Once again, Will, you've done a superb job of describing the malignant rot that is the State and the destruction it is causing as it consolidates its power. While I could have done without another glimpse at the mug of that despicable criminal rat Arpaio, you've done the public a true service in exposing the anarcho-tyrannical reign of terror in Maricopa County, something that the Arpaio/Napolitano-worshipping media here the Grand Canyon State will NEVER do. <BR/><BR/>I should note here that the toxic effects of Arpaio's criminality are not confined to his own county. Those of us living in other Arizona counties are feeling the pain as Arpaio's fellow county sheriffs (who have even fewer brain cells or scruples than Arpaio, but none of his charisma or acumen for political manipulation) strive to mold themselves in his image, with all of the attendant abuses of power and squandering of increasingly diminishing supplies of tax dollars.liberranterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00555275410576294081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-36742583029645755512009-01-16T09:47:00.000-07:002009-01-16T09:47:00.000-07:00My vote is for Ronald Paul Grigg.My vote is for Ronald Paul Grigg.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-73985557861001280562009-01-16T09:04:00.000-07:002009-01-16T09:04:00.000-07:00I'll decline suggesting any names, as I know my qu...I'll decline suggesting any names, as I know my quirks are often unfit for public consumption.
