Astroturfing the Best Devotion to Rome

It has been a good week since I published my latest home page piece, and I usually don't wait this long to put up a blog post to mention it. But work has been busy, I've been worn out, and I've even caught something so I'm just laying low for the weekend.

There were half-a-dozen things I thought about putting into a blog post to augment that home page effort. But I'll put it on hold for now. I'm just blogging to blog about it, direct your attention to it if you are interested, and I'll just get to other things later. Some of my reluctance to get too deeply into it is yet again relates to my feelings that after saying the same thing a hundred times yet looking out upon the wretched stupidity that still happens pretty much everywhere, well, you know. It does get very discouraging.

Sometimes being relegated to a trollee is just not fun. I know I haven't got the readership to be much of an influencer, but I always pray that those who do come across my ministry work here will be more vibrant Kingdom dwellers and share what they've learned with others so they may be as well. Not that it must come from my work -- just from anywhere, particularly Scripture itself. That is much of what my latest is about.

One of the latest ways Rome draws people into World System allegiance is with this thing "astroturfing," trying to make a critical mass of people's gaining devotion to a cause more organic when it is really just produced by Romanist agents and their expert propaganda influence (almost always involving cash payments). In doing this it uses people's do-gooding passions against them, shoving them into The Network to fight some enemy -- Rome has invented so many of them over the centuries -- and plays to the hilt the "Strength in numbers!" feature to make their institutional deceit look like ironclad truth. With the latest and the next latest and even more of the latest "A.I." it metastasizes that much more gruesomely.

Those ill-versed in God's word and His ways are really just dead meat.

And there are so many of them. It is sorrowful.

Yet there is the 110th Psalm, again, to bring comfort. 

He'll take care of it, besides the wonderful truth that His mercies are still new every morning.

I'd planned to elaborate more but I confess, forgive me, I'm just not up to it right now. Putting together home page pieces is a lot, but again I don't mind. All I care about is sharing Christ and the freedom therein against a widely captivating Romanist World of insanely imaginative art projects that lead people from Him. Nothing new there, just praying my readers would find Him and the joy of dwelling in the Kingdom.

Thank you for your readership.

Every Day of the Civil War is the Fifth of November

It seems everyone really likes making FREEDOM  and DEMOCRACY and WE-SIMPLY-MUST-DO-ANYTHING-NECESSARY- TO-STOP-DICTATORS their supremely sovereign gods. How many times do I hear about how much of an "existential threat" some powerful government official will be if he or she gets into some position of authority. Never mind that for several years now people have been childishly using the word existential  as if it related to fears about not existing, when it means nothing of the sort. But it is part of the fiercely distended liturgy, so, well. The truth that just about everybody who blaps incessantly about political matters simply refuses to get is that there is no democracy. There is no freedom. There is always  an autocracy. Always has been. Always will be. This isn't that those things considered democratic ideals  are not desired. Having a say in what happens in your community, even your nation is not a bad thing. Being able to make your own decisions about the valu...

The 6,000-Year Stupid Run, Addendum

Image
Just saw a post from a decent economist about how working men are vanishing. He pointed out today 1 in 7 men have pretty-much checked out and are doing nothing. Being homeless, sitting in the basement playing video games, whatever thing not engaged in a single meaningfully productive effort of any kind. In 1950 that number was 1 in 40. I mention this because I concluded my last post with a mention of Joy Pullman's piece about the twisting around of male-female innate roles, responsibilities, duties, and just how much that has destroyed our society. This little factoid from the economist is testament to the wicked product this present ugly reality. I pondered what I shared in my last post , just about that distressing concept generally known as stupidity , still thinking about Jesus warning against calling anyone a fool. But the fact is Scripture talks about the distinction between wisdom and folly all the time . Very required, really. We are all so very stupid. So yeah, not an issu...

The Brilliantly Manufactured Realities are Getting Even Better

Image
Recently came across another fine exposition by Todd Hayen over at Off-Guardian . It splendidly echoes the Truth Rules shared in my last post : That the System manufactures "realities" to compel people's "obedience to the understanding," and with the latest "A.I." CGI capabilities that will become more and more proficiently accomplished. Hayen emphasizes the System principle pounded into the mainstream psyche that the main rule of life is you can make your own rule of life, indeed that you can choose your own reality. He does fine work to speak to this principle's untenable logic, one that has actually been known of for millennia. If my  "reality" is different from your "reality," how can there be one true reality? And if there isn't, then what is the value of any  "reality" if, yes, none are actually real? But, alas, people lost in their own reprobation and thoroughly given over to the System's take on thing...
