General Reason:

Virtues?

The Devil issued a harshly worded statement against God today:

“What virtue is it to allow sinners to continue sinning?! God must not allow humans to have free will!

“What virtue is there in allowing evil humans to contintue to do oppress others in unjust ways?!

“What virtue is there in allowing anyone to do whatever he or she pleases?!

“God must step down from being God! God does not deserve to be God!”

General Reason:

Media Whores Hate First Amendment

Isn’t it so sad that the media whores — sell-outs to the mega-corpses — can’t seem to recall the first amendment to the U.S. Constitution? Um, the one that says:

Original
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.

The Next Union Strike

I have my own demand for a strike. I demand the next time a union goes on strike it demands less money. That's right they need to demand a pay cut.

However, my proposal is they demand their top officers receive pay cuts.

Personally I'd like the see the extra money go towards making their products and services better, or even less expensive, but…

General Reason:

Even Tax

I know it's similar to “spin,” but I’m thinking it would probably be a good idea to stop using the terminology of “flat tax” and start calling it “even tax.” Since that has a better ring to it.

Nothing changes behind the scenes. The concept is still that everyone is taxed at the same percentage, everyone equally.

General Reason:

"Debt Ceiling" is Really "Debt Pit"

It's predictable, and ironic, how the people in power are calling the current situation a "debt ceiling"

  • as though we're being prevented from going high,
  • as though we're being held down,
  • as though the sky awaits but evildoers are shackling us to the ground.

General Reason:

Cheering the Death of the Wicked

You can tell a person doesn't deserve power or authority (political, financial, economic, religious, etc…) if they glorify war, if they glorify killing.

You can tell a person doesn't know God if they rejoice over the death of the wicked.

Ezekiel 18:23 (NIV)

Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign LORD. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?

Ezekiel 33:11 (NIV)

"Your Private Life is NOT Yours, It's Mine ALL Mined!"

The megacorpses have spoken!

You belong to us! You have NO secrets from us.

You have no secrets from whomever we choose to sell your private lives to!

We own the U.S. Supreme Court!

You are all guilty until proven innocent. (But don't worry, we have lots of false witnesses ready to take the stand, paid for by the U.S. government.)

All your information is mine! All mined!

All bow down to Drug War!

Should We Follow Our Own Constitution in Foreign Lands? Should it Apply to Non-Citizens?

Saying we don't need to follow our Constitution in other lands is the same as saying we don't need to follow the Golden Rule because Earth is not Heaven.

Saying we don't need to follow our Constitution in how we treat non-citizens is the same as saying we don't need to follow the Golden Rule because Earth is not Heaven.

WikiLeaks and Judgement Day

Dear Deceiving Politicians, Industry, and Religious Leaders,

The exposure you all get come Judgement Day is going to make this most recent http://WikiLeaks.org episode look like a grain of sand on the beach.

http://WikiLeaks.org is only publishing some of your written papers. On Judgement Day your thoughts, all your words, the intentions of your actions, and all of your writings will be exposed.

The time to stop lying to us is NOW!

Margaret Warner Interviews Deaf Man

In case you are interested in seeing just how out of touch our government is with its citizens, please read the following transcript or watch the video. John Pistole, administrator, Transportation Security Administration, speaks flawlessly like a politician, although he's not.

He completely ignores nearly every question Margaret asks!

Kerry Carries the Water for the Warmongers Now, Lending Credence to the Saying "Power Corrupts"

I was nearly sick to my stomach last night as I watched the PBS News Hour and heard Massachusetts Senator John Kerry go on and on about how we needed to be in Afghanistan. Hm, something doesn't compute! Wasn't he a member of Vietnam Veteran's Against the War? Hm, according to Wikipedia he was even the spokesperson for them.

My, how times have changed.

General Reason:

EVIL in U.S. Government is VERY Hard to Excise!

There is a sick evil cancer in our society, from the highest levels down to the lowest levels. At least one Presidential Administration that believes in torture. And that evil bloodlust for a scapegoat and to extract revenge goes all the way to the lowest levels of the military and civilian law enforcement.

Instead of upholding the Constitution they swore to uphold, they abuse and torture it! THEY ARE EVIL!

Since many of them probably go to church I will add that they are also COMPLETELY EVIL HYPOCRITES who defy God's teachings.

Rice and Beans Truck Can't Handle the Right Turn

It's been a while since I've typed up a dream I've had. This doesn't mean I've not had dreams at night, it just means I'm not logging them here.

But due to a number of dreams I had after Obama was elected, I figured I'd share a dream I had last night.

General Reason:

Similarities of the Extremists -- Scripture Worship

In the Worship God and Bible Study area of NewOldSalt.com I have written often about being careful about Bible worship. So this essay will be about the more general form called Scripture Worship.

What is Scripture Worship? It is when people idolize their scriptures. Idolizing their scriptures is usually the first step to idolizing one's own interpretation of those scriptures, the next step is (too often) to force others to submit to those scriptures, but more so to the specific interpretation of those scriptures.

General Reason:

Less Accessible Commenting

Sorry about that, but my guess is someone didn't like the fact I said that pay day lenders (and the variations on their ilk) were one of the current favorite toys of the devil.

Not long after that was published, there was an attack on this website. Hundreds upon hundreds of inane comments appeared. That was a burden in more ways than just one. Kind of like being snowed under by bullies holding all the cards which they stole or forced others to sign away under duress, haters of freedom, sharing, love.

General Reason:

Why Would Obama Tell TD Jakes to Spend So Much Time Teaching About Submission?

Hm. I wonder. Think it has anything to do with another major religion that claims to submit to God? But which seems to promote the opposite? The crushing, oppression, and outright murder of people who disagree with them?

"Dying Frankenstein and Mad Woman" Spread Fear and Terror

Recently I was informed by someone a "dying Frankenstein and a mad woman" were working hard to spread fear and terror across the countryside.

Then I realized what the person was talking about. Senator Dianne Feinstein's interest in maintaining the black market in marijuana, the destruction of the environment due to grow operations in national forests, the unrighteous (and expensive) imprisonment of people for using a plant product humanity has been using for thousands of years, and the mass murder of Mexicans.

General Reason:

Evil Greedy Hypocrites Continue to Undermine Society

In their ongoing effort to destroy our society and the societies of the world, retailers worked in cahoots with companies specializing in money (banks, credit card companies, pay day lenders, etc…) to tempt people to buy junky stuff they don't need made by near-slaves in foreign lands.

General Reason:

Unpatriotic Crybaby Unemployed Whine Over Lack of Food and Housing When Instead They Should be Thinking About How We Can Raise the Money to Pay Generals $10,000+ per Month!

As unemployment handouts dry up for people, they are complaining about a lack of jobs. But don't these people realize that we needed to defy our own Declaration of Independence by make sure the military has more power than civilians? And not just here, but we need to force a militaristic attitude on all countries.

Testament:

Why Condemn Adam and Eve?

I was watching a video interpretation of Genesis a few days ago and something struck me which hasn't before.

We're told that God commanded Adam and Eve "not to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil." [Genesis 2:17]

Since, at that point, they had not eaten from it, it only makes sense they had no understanding — no knowledge — of good and evil. And since they did not understand right or wrong — good and evil — how can their eating the fruit be sinful?

Men of Lawlessness, "We Don't Need No Damn Stinkin' Regulations!"

The Men of Lawlessness continued their push to prevent them or their overlords from being regulated.

"The only good regulation is the one that allows me to drain all the money from your accounts in to mine!" mocked one Man of Lawlessness.

A woman chimed in, "hey, don't be sexist please! There are such things as 'women of lawlessness' too! Didn't you know that the CEO of Mystery Inc. is a woman?

Why does the United States have so much illegal immigration?

Why "Don't Ask, Don't Tell?"

Introduction

I, for one, can not say I'm interested in hearing of people's sexual exploits or interests. I don't ask for that information, but it is sometimes volunteered to me. For the most part, it is not exactly breaking news to me. But I do my best to follow the Golden Rule and treat others with the respect I would like to be treated with. Generally I just change the subject.

Testament:

They Promote Sin, NOT Holding it Back

Isn't it sad, sick, ironic, and totally predictable* that those who think they are God's gift to humanity and claim to be "holding back" the forces of sin, are in fact the very ones who are promoting evil the most?!

* And even predicted in the Bible.

Here's the easiest passage to share with you. Just read all of Matthew 23, notice how Jesus rages against those who block the entrance to God's kingdom.
