Not Only Is Biden The Worst President Within My Lifetime...

 ...he is the worst deviant ever to hold that office and is an out and out piece of trash in my estimation. I used to be religious but have not been for decades now; yet, I respect people's religious beliefs as long as their religion does not, in brief,  include repression of other religions or other beliefs beliefs and do not advocate for violence as does Islam. While not religious, I celebrate holidays like Christmas and Easter mostly in a nonreligious but somewhat spiritual way. I understand that millions if not billions of people celebrate Easter and it is one of the highest holy days, if not actually the highest, in virtually all Christian religions. I respect that, so I would not try to demean that holy day for those who believe that Jesus Christ was God. Then you have a an apparent pervert President Joe Biden (just look to all the videos of him with women and children when he is sniffing hair, seemingly touching them inappropriately and being creepy as one can be), who claims to be a good Catholic but at the same time supports queers of all sorts, while evidently doing little to nothing for homeless veterans, and also supports transgender delusional wannabe sex changers, while wanting to allow for young children to use puberty blockers and allow your children to become delusional by way of wanting to become a gender they are not and now he has done this - he has named tomorrow Transgender Day of Visibility (more at the source).
 
He has now become the most disrespectful president of all time by way of naming tomorrow Transgender Day of Visibility! Tomorrow, for those of you who may not know, is that highest of holy days I just wrote about - Easter. Regardless of its religious significance, Joe Biden, the biggest POS president of forever, has decided to make that day special for those whom I (and most others I think) strongly believe are absolutely delusional people who believe they have changed their gender when in reality they are merely male or female impersonators. 
 
He is a terribly disrespectful & shameless charlatan & hypocrite at best plain and simple. The next time he trips on the stairs while boarding a plane, I almost (but not quite really) hope he is at the top when he stumbles and then he falls over the railing and hits the tarmac head first AND that he pulls that idiot Kamala Harris along with him. He is seemingly a brain dead and definitely a truly disgusting poor excuse for a human being in my opinion. While I cannot bring myself to actually wish a violent fall like that that upon them, if it actually did accidentally happen - I'd probably applaud and jump for joy after the fact and might even go back to being religious so I could thank God properly for excising that tumor of a man from the human race.

Abolishing The Catholic Church - Not A Bad Idea

300 catholic priests alleged to have committed sexual assaults against 1,000 children!!! That in a single state - Pennsylvania and I think in just a small part of PA - since the 1950s! Read about it at the source but make sure to read the whole thing and the list of priests who are alleged to have sexually abused children (mostly boys but some girls too) and read about the cover-up too. Really, I mean that, it is important to look at he complete article to which I linked - it is truly mind boggling but not really shocking at all what with the record of the Catholic Church.

I think it is long past due that the Catholic Church becomes: defunct - out of business - forbidden - banned - extinct - no more - nevermore - nonexistent - or just totally frigging destroyed - however it can be achieved. If it means crucifying every last pedophile priest, then maybe that would be the way to do it; although, I would rather throw them all into the meanest maximum security prison on earth and give all of the other prisoners copious quantities of booze and Viagra... and give all of the guards off for the weekend.

Mind you: I am certain it was not just the priests but brothers and nuns who were also pedophiles that committed heinously vile acts on children under there care. Of that, I have absolutely no doubt.
The demonic pedophile religious and the purveyors of Satan's evil who covered up their crimes and protected these demons are among the most despicably evil people who have ever walked on the face of the earth. May they eternally suffer unbearably while burning in hell - each and every one of them who were/are guilty of these horrendous acts!

Anyone who supports the Catholic Church after this is out of their ever loving mind and just as bad, in my opinion, as the rest who covered up for these demonic child abusers and they are just as bad as the pedophiles. I think the Church itself, on the whole, is as guilty as the pedophiles and those who covered up for them because the Church was in essence their sanctuary and let's face it - this has been going on for centuries.You want to believe in God, in Jesus and all that - fine by me - but if you continue to do it as a Catholic you are, in my opinion, as bad as the rest of them. Catholicism is a terribly ugly scourge on the planet. Of course, you could correct that by purging the church now of all of its clergy - everyone of them and then starting over. Purging by fire, as in burning them at the stake, comes to mind.

Has The Pope Yielded To Islamic Terrorists?

So the Pope has come on the record to say that Freedom of Religion overrides Freedom of Speech. In sum and substance, he said that it is not permissible for someone to disrespect anyone's religion through their expression of free speech (source). So tell me: If I asked the current Pope whether or not he thought Islam to be the one true religion, and whether or not Mohammad's teachings were absolutely correct and were the words of Allah (God), and also asked if Allah was the one true and absolutely the only God - and finally - if I asked the Pope if he would denounce Jesus  - would he respond with an absolute and infallible yes to all of those questions? It seems, he must do so because for him to do otherwise would be seen, by many Muslims, as disrespecting and ridiculing Islam or worse still as blasphemy in their eyes. Islamists have beheaded and put to the sword untold numbers of people for less than that. Would the Pope not then, by answering any of those questions in the negative, be guilty of doing exactly what he says others should not do! Since he has preached that it is not right or permissible for others to do so, and since I am certain he is a man of his word who would never lie to his flock (aren't all Catholics just as certain as am I), I have arrived at the conclusion that he must have recently and secretly converted to Islam. Otherwise, without any doubt in my mind, he is just another bull-shitter of the politically correct (PC) ilk or should that be religiously correct (RC) type. (Hmm, maybe RC has not stood for Roman Catholicism over all these centuries but instead has meant religiously correct, it would explain a lot!)

I do not believe for one minute that the Pope is infallible or incapable of lying or that he truly is a man of faith more than anyone else. Based upon his cowering statements, I do believe, despite denials by the Catholic Church, that threats have probably been made against him or Catholic targets by Islamic terrorists. I also believe that he has yielded to those threats and is condescending to the level of other appeasers of terrorism who do or say nothing - or worse yet to the level of those who actually bend over backwards to defend or justify the actions of religious terrorists. He, in my opinion, has justified the recent Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack. You see, no matter how much he says he is anti-violence, he still winds up using an example in which violence is the result of ridicule and then explains that it (the violent response) is normal and implies that is true in the case of religious ridicule. So in other words, he has in fact - as far as I can see, yielded to they who wield murderous violence in the name of Islam (or for that matter in the name of any religion).

Of course, maybe I am wrong and no such threats were made that caused the Pope to yield to Islamic terrorism but if that is the case then the Pope evidently is simply hedging his bets by way of a lightly veiled justification of the Charlie Hebdo murders. Make no mistake about it, with that punch in the nose example he gave, supported by him saying  "It's normal. You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others." that is exactly what he was doing - supporting the terrorist attacks on Charlie Hebdo. As far as I am concerned that makes the Pope, at least this particular pope, no better than the anti-Christ.

A hat tip and my thanks to Peter Q for sending me the link to that article.

Talk About Chutzpah...

...I don't think it could get more brazen than claiming you were running a prostitution ring in order to save Israel. The whoremasters who ran the prostitution ring, reportedly members of a messianic sect in Israel, reportedly were brainwashing women into believing that they would be helping preserve the future of Israel by way of prostitution. Of course, it is also reported that the holy-men turned pimps who made that claim were actually pocketing the money - but what else would you expect after all a shekel earned is a shekel saved. Being that those who ran this operation were members of a messianic sect, one has to wonder if they told the women that they would be helping the messiah come again.

It Was A Good Story...

...to explain a lot of things in the world to ignorant early civilizations, and to give people a good outline for how they should act with respect to morality; but the truth is the Bible, or any other religious book as far as I am aware, never addressed subjects going back more than several thousand years from the present time, and probably not more than a few thousand or so years before it was written. I believe that now though, the time has come and long since passed, that people need to realize that the Bible and other religious books were written by people, and then later transcribed by other people in the languages of the world. These people could have had no to extremely little knowledge of the world when it began, and how it developed over the eons, so to explain anything these books say, and still say, religious people attribute the words of such books to God.

I am not really a believer in God as most people understand God. I believe in spirituality but not a God Almighty per se, yet I do believe in one overwhelming spiritual power - that of the universe itself. Without going further into my spiritual beliefs though, I want to further address the beliefs of they who believe in the truth of such religious books, and who do not give any credence to the science that states the world is millions or billions of years old, to people who will not accept the truth in front of their own faces because they refuse to give up a claim they have made for years - that the Bible or other religious books such as the Quran explain everything. They simply do not, despite the fact that people believe them to be the word of God.

If these religious books were the fonts of all knowledge as they seemingly claim to be, then why is there no mention of so many things, that we have proof of having existed. The religious books make many mentions of animals throughout there texts. Animals of all types, especially domestic animals, and wild animals that caused a threat to ancient people, seemed to be mentioned often in these books. For example sheep, lions, goats, serpents, locusts, birds, are all mentioned in religious books, as are others. These animals are also mentioned in lay historical accounts of the ancient times. Something the religious books make no mention of, nor are they mentioned in historical accounts, are living dinosaurs; well that is unless you ant to give credence to a few tales of the Loch Ness Monster and to the knights fighting fire breathing Dragons (but then again dragons that breathe fire are a bit much).

Now, all of a sudden, some Christians who are strict creationists have developed a museum wherein they display dinosaurs and other prehistoric life and try to explain that all of these creatures lived within about the past few thousand years or so, and that they have proof of this in religious texts, and the word of God. They are apparently trying to make their argument, which is a religious argument, seem to be based upon science with the creation of a 'Creation Museum'. I am sorry but I just cannot buy into it. If that makes me a heathen, then so be it; but I would rather be what I believe to be a fairly intelligent heathen than a person who insists in believing that the world is only a few to several thousand years old, and that all of the dinosaurs walked the earth within that time frame. Believe what you want, teach it in public schools if you want (along with science), but don't ram it down my throat as being gospel and therefore the truth. There is just too much evidence out there to suggest otherwise than it being true, and too little evidence to suggest likewise in support of its so called truth.

Still the Bible and other books may be the word of God to man, but then again who is anyone among mankind to think that God told us all there was to tell, or even that God told us the truth. Pretty assuming on the part of anyone who believes in the word of God to believe that mankind was worthy enough to hear it all. I guess that has always been one of my biggest gripes with organized religions, each faith seemingly preaches about God, and the word of God, as if their religion was the final word on everything. Science can get that way sometimes too, but the thing about science is that it is constantly challenged, constantly rewritten, and always evolving because of more and more evidence about, and therefore more and more understanding of the universe. Just my opinion, but I believe it to be somewhat pompous and overbearing on the part of religious zealots to claim that they were special enough to have heard it all from the mouth of God as if mankind was His confidant.

An Addendum 9added at 1705 hours 05/31/2007: I fully grant there may be a God, even though I believe otherwise than conventional religious wisdom. If you prefer to believe in God over science, or science over God okay by me. I think there is a lot of truth in the Bible, and other religious tomes, but do not agree that any of them are all explicative of the universe, and that stands even if they truly are the words of God in those books. It just amazes me how a person could even for a moment believe that mankind is so special that God revealed all there is to reveal to us; and that is exactly how the curators of this museum seem to be coming off.

Palm Sunday

For those of you who celebrate, have a happy Palm Sunday. Today my wife has invited over some of the family for dinner. It should prove to be a nice day indeed. As for me, I stopped being religious years ago, although I will readily admit, even though I am not one for organized religion, I live by the majority of the morality taught to me in those bygone days. Yes religion and its messages can be good things when not taken to extremes, sadly though it seems, to me, that too many take it to the extreme.

Enough philosophizing for me for today, now back to the original message. If you celebrate Palm Sunday as a holy day, enjoy it as much as possible. Have a happy Palm Sunday.

All the best,

A Day Of Fasting...

...is not something I do very often; but I did it today. No solid food at all since about 10PM last night, so I am just passed 24 hours now. I have had 2 glasses of apple juice, a glass or two of water, and two cups of green tea, but that has been it besides some Movi-Prep. Now despite what it may sound like to a connoisseur of old films, Movie-Prep is not something you eat while getting in the mood for the movies, although I guess a video might be made because I used it. You see it helps clear out a certain bodily area, and the video would be made by my gastroenterologist while doing my colonoscopy tomorrow. Pretty much just a check-up sort of thing, and I do not want to dwell on that subject all that much.

What I do want to talk about is the fasting thing. It has always amazed me that people fast for various reasons be they for: weight loss, religion, political statement making, because they are nuts, or whatever. It amazes me even more that it is pretty easy to do - especially for me, but only under certain conditions like the upcoming test tomorrow! It simply has befuddled me, now for the fourth time in my life (once before for a similar test, and twice before for operations), that I can just turn off eating like that. Yet, I am at least 50 pounds overweight at about 218 lbs and 5'11". Why can't I just turn off the desire to eat, or at least turn off the desire to eat junk food more often? If I knew the answer to that, then I might be able to either fast once a week, or at least cut back on the junk food, and really lose some weight.

Today though, yes this day in particular made this all the harder for me to understand. If you like Thanksgiving spreads, with almost all the fixings, and love the smell of roasting turkey, then maybe you can understand what I mean when I say: 'The relative ease at which I avoided food today was mind boggling'. You see, today my wife decided to cook a fresh turkey. Yes of all days, she chose today when I had to fast. Does that mean she hates me even more than I had thought. Well maybe so, and maybe not. She was almost as surprised as me to find out I could avoid eating any of it. Apparently, I had forgotten to tell her about the test tomorrow, and my need to fast today. The smell of that roasting turkey was about the only thing that really made it at all tough, just a bit though, for me to hold off on eating today. Well the smell of it roasting, and then me actually carving it for everyone else. I cannot explain it, I may never understand it, but if I could turn on the appetite suppressant and turn off the appetite, like I did today, at least once weekly, well - I would be a slimmer guy.

Of course I would make certain never to turn on the appetite suppressant when there was a turkey roasting in the oven, and I can assure you that the leftovers will be severely depleted once I get to them tomorrow; but I still wish I could figure out how to do this fasting thing more often - without extremist religion, without making a political statement, without becoming more of a nut job than I am already, just doing it by will power I guess. I had it today, that is will power, now how do I exhibit it on a weekly or daily basis when it comes to junk food and overeating in general???

Please, if you know the answer to my conundrum, don't tell me until after about 3PM EST tomorrow. I want to pig out on the turkey leftovers before I find out.

All the best,
