Wonderful Matters

"...But will He find faith on the planet?" (From the 18th chapter of Luke) A rhetorical question Jesus asks after speaking about people with such a deep abiding faith in Him that they'd pray for good, righteous things -- all the time. The problem is, when He actually comes back to find out how people have been blessed by the wonderful things He gives them, it is very possible there will be far too few who get it. It is actually, a quite sorrowful lament. But I do get it. I do look around and see the World ---- and its devotees. Very often they appear very smart, very kind, very savvy, very concerned about things being decent everywhere... and yet... They are such fools. Like Jeremiah observed, "Everyone is stupid and without knowledge." (From the tenth chapter) And without God, without an insightful conviction of fear of the Lord (there in the sixth verse of that chapter), people will just be fully confused. It is just not hard to see that confusion just getting...

I have been wanting to blog about so many things, and, well, there is so much. I wrestle with what to address to introduce my latest home page piece , but it is overwhelming. My time and wherewithal have dwindled a bit and I would certainly write and blog and post much more, but, well, there you go. And there is the whole merely-being-a-trollee factor -- merely blapping about the patently stupid and just leaping into the Culture War doing so. With that in mind, here're two things about which I can post and keep brief, get it into the cybersphere here and pray people will, ultimately, ... Find Him . Just now I came across this and thought it worth sharing. From industrious muckraker DataRepublican, who with her wicked NGO activity exposures is getting some social media attention, a "Doxxing Ecosystem." It is just a map of all the ways ferocious NGOs are targeting those they believe impede their noble movement to turn the globe into a socialist paradise. And with SPIT techn...

This morning I had my devotional time on the patio, as I usually do, and right as I got to the middle of the Parable of the Sower in the eighth chapter of Luke, I looked up at a spectacular cloud formation illuminated by the just-rising sun. It was as if God had woven the most beautiful golden wool fleece in the sky. There was also a hummingbird fluttering frequently against this backdrop -- just an amazing testament to God's masterful creative work He shares with us. I just felt like sharing that, it was quite the experience while spending time in His word and in prayer, but I also share it because right when it all lit up like that, I was reading that middle part of the parable, between Jesus' sharing it and His explaining it. Do you know what that transition part is? It is His reminding His listeners of the Old Testament passage in the sixth chapter of Isaiah, when Isaiah was commissioned and asked God what he was supposed to tell his listeners. God told him to tell them the...

Recently Kit Knightly over at Off-Guardian  has been fastidiously exposing one of the best Romanist ruses of the present-day. It is simply the idea that if something very bad happens and a computer program malfunction of some kind is a part of that, then we can all viciously whine about the now fully-conscious self-aware "AI," which as we all know is now capable of the worst evil. It is a ruse . It is a valiantly attempted limited hangout to direct very good smart Catholicists from understanding that anything the "AI" does it was programmed to do by somebody somewhere down the line. Do not be taken in by the claim, "Wull lookit what the AI did when there is no way any human could've prompted it!"   Somewhere, some place where certain people labor to manage the World System in some benighted way, there are things deliberately programmed into the machinery to arrange anything out there you see or hear happening, even if it seems to be only the computer, ...

Today it seems everyone is raging in some manner over the congressional testimony of supreme public health mandarin Anthony Fauci. The most vitriolic seems to be coming from those who knew what was really going on with the Covid Hysteria as early as April 2020. I recently came across yet another list of all the horrors that institutionally manufactured hysteria brought about, it is there in that X post. Very true, very real, and very destructive. Recently excerpts from his diary emerged that reveal some of the things he was thinking and feeling at the time, so they asked him to appear in a very important looking hearing just this morning, and he basically appealed to saying nothing at all, which he did. Of course he did, anything he says would be used against him in a court of law and you know the rest of that. The screeching response seems to be that Fauci is arrested, tried, convicted, and drawn & quartered. For those who wail that he was protected by some kind of blanket preside...

The second half of the month of June we were on a nice vacation back east, seeing sites with very good friends and family who live there. It was wonderful.  One of the places along the touring route was Gettysburg, and we had to stop in. We enjoyed all the museum and visitor center things, but because of time constraints and pretty good rainfall we didn't see much of the battlefield areas. On our drive back out we did, however, stop for a look-see at the Gettysburg cemetery and the exact location where Lincoln gave the famous address. I took a snapshot of a memorial to that event, not exactly where he stood but close to it. Sure enough engraved there is the entire speech, along with a nice bust and... and... Fasces. Huh. Arguably the greatest speech about the merits of the thing DEMOCRACY and how much it must be defended with honor and sacrifice and all the rest of it -- the thing is here memorialized with the most meaningfully profound display of authoritarian hegemonic power ever...
