    #284 Trashing a Treasure
    Mar 12 2022
    During this program, I will quote from the article "Nation Writer Labels the Constitution 'Trash'" by Isaac Schorr, which appeared in National Review on March 4, 2022. The Nation is, quoting their website, "principled and progressive" and "empowers readers to fight for justice and equality for all" in order "to bring about a more democratic and equitable world." To paraphrase: The Nation is a left-wing, globalist, socialist, and anti-Biblical periodical that works tirelessly for the destruction of our God-given Constitutional liberties by focusing on, and distorting, current issues in order to undermine our social fabric and thus destabilize our country so that most of our citizens will be impoverished and subjugated. National Review is a neo-con globalist periodical, so I don't necessarily agree with everything that appears in that publication. "Elie Mystal, justice correspondent for The Nation, labeled the Constitution "trash" in an appearance on ABC's The View on Friday." "Appearing on the program to promote his new book, Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution, Mystal was asked by co-host Ana Navarro-Cárdenas if the Constitution "is a living document," or a "sacred document." Mystal responded by declaring that "it's certainly not sacred, all right, let's start there. The Constitution is kind of trash." " The US Constitution is a living document in the sense that it is still the Supreme Law of the Land, per Article VI of the Constitution itself: "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding." It is also a "living document" in the sense that it can be amended, as stated in Article V of the Constitution itself: "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments." The second method is called the Convention of States, about which I will comment if I have time. Judges do not amend the Constitution but are bound to adhere to it. Several times the Supreme Court has modified the Constitution, such as the banishment of prayer and Bible reading from public schools and the promotion of sodomy and all forms of sexual depravity. Congress and the president should have ignored these rulings and removed the judges who usurped the position of the legislature by legislating from the bench. Per Article I of the US Constitution, all legislative powers are vested in the congress; per Article III of the US Constitution, judges can be removed from office if they don't exhibit "good behavior." Usurping the legislative powers of congress is definitely not "good behavior." The US Constitution is not a sacred document, but the principles of the US Constitution are Biblical and thus are sacred, universal, and eternal. " "It was written by slavers and colonists and white people who were willing to make deals with slavers and colonists. They didn't ask anybody that looked like me what they thought about the Constitution," continued Mystal, who proceeded to do an impression of a 18th century slave weighing in on the document." " It's true that many of the authors of the US Constitution owned slaves, but many were vehemently opposed to slavery, such as Ben Franklin and John Adams. One delegate to the Constitutional Convention was George Mason of Virginia. He objected to the Constitution and refused to sign it because he felt that it did not provide protection for the individual citizen and gave the federal government ill-defined and over-zealous powers. His objections helped the incorporation of the Bill of Rights as the first ten amendments to the US Constitution. In addition, George Mason, although he owned slaves, opposed the US Constitution because it allowed the slave trade to continue until 1808. George Mason said that "slavery brings the judgment of God down upon a nation." Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence but was not present at the Constitutional Convention because he was the ambassador to France at the time. His first draft of the Declaration of Independence abolished slavery, which at the time was legal in the British Empire. Unfortunately, the delegates from South Carolina and Georgia would have never signed the Declaration of Independence if slavery abolition remained in the text. The colonies needed a united front against Great Britain, so Thomas Jefferson removed from the Declaration of Independence the portion calling for slavery's abolition. Mr. Mystal's opposition to slavery is somewhat ironic, since he and his ...

    #283 Lupine Shepherd

    During this program, I will quote from the article "Christian nationalism is rooted in stupid tough-guy misogyny: What would Jesus say?" by Nathaniel Manderson, which appeared in Salon.com on February 20, 2022. Rev. Nathaniel Manderson was educated at a conservative seminary (Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, M.Div.), trained as a minister, ordained through the American Baptist Churches USA and guided by liberal ideals [pro baby killing and pro sodomy]. He is a self-identified white, working-class poor, Bible believing Christian [his views are closer to those of a Canaanite than they are a Christian]. He received his Masters in Divinity from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. Throughout his professional and ministerial career, he has been a dedicated pastor, counselor, adviser and advocate. As an academic adviser/counselor, he has served first-generation and low-income students that are trying to gain access into higher education for the past 13 years. During his career, he has also stood against his own seminary and spoken out against all forms of the evangelical right-wing political movement [Biblical morality, righteousness, Constitutional liberty and government accountability]. He has sought to speak up for all those that have become disenfranchised by today's political, spiritual and economic elite. Founded in 1995, Salon is an independent publication covering news and politics through a progressive [statist, globalist, Godless], nonpartisan editorial lens, alongside our rigorous and inquisitive coverage of culture and entertainment, science and health, and food. Our editorial mission is pro-democracy, pro-equality and justice and pro-truth. We ask and seek to answer in good faith — through original reporting, news analysis, investigations, left-leaning and politically independent commentary, insightful cultural criticism, personal essays and in-depth interviews — big questions, such as: What is the state of democracy in the United States and the world [the USA is a republic, not a democracy]? As I understand it, Christian nationalism is an idea now widely accepted within the evangelical church that the U.S. is a Christian nation founded upon Christian principles — no matter what it may say in the Constitution. [Article VII done in Convention by the Unanimous Consent of the States present the Seventeenth Day of September in the Year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and Eighty seven and of the Independance of the United States of America the Twelfth] This commitment to the Christian faith, as a nation, is the reason God blessed the U.S. as the greatest nation that ever existed. God will only continue to bless this nation, however, as long as it remains a Christian nation. As America becomes more progressive and increasingly secular in terms of politics, culture and faith, then in this view God will remove his blessing and protection and great evils will befall our nation. [Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Matthew 7:24-27 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.] This remarkable theory has no connection to any of the teachings of Jesus Christ or his followers, and is completely irrelevant to the Christian faith. I will certainly admit that I have a heart for American idealism. I have officiated at numerous Veterans Day and Memorial Day services, and I have felt the love of country enormously, on those days and all the days in between. None of that, however, has anything to do with Christianity. God does not play favorites when it comes to nations, people or cultures. That entire idea is morally and theologically absurd. [Psalm 33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.] In truth, Christian nationalism is based not in the Bible or the teachings of Jesus Christ, but on the idea of the traditional American family [That is the Biblical family]. As roles for women have changed [thanks to David Rockefeller, who launched a propaganda campaign to stampede women into the workforce from the underground economy so that the government could tax them, while at the same time introducing large number of new workers into the workforce to keep wages depressed and having the children raised more by the state than by the parents], as divorce becomes more common [Malachi 2:16 "For the Lord God of Israel says That He hates divorce, For it covers one's garment with ...

  • #282 Unmasking Child Abuse

    #282 Unmasking Child Abuse
    Feb 26 2022
    I'm recording this program, program 282, which I entitle "Unmasking Child Abuse," on Wednesday, February 23, 2022. During this program, I will quote from the article "Psychiatrist bans child-masking and 'all forms of child abuse' in his practice," subtitled 'I will no longer accept your ill-informed, foolish, immature rationalizations for the ongoing abuse of your children,' by Dr. Mark McDonald, a medical doctor, clinical psychiatrist, medical-legal expert, and author of the book United States of Fear: How America Fell Victim to a Mass Delusional Psychosis. Dr. McDonald's article appeared on the website aflds.org (America's Frontline Doctors) on February 10, 2022. If I have time, I will also quote from the article "Chronic Maskitis" by Dr. Vernon Coleman, which appeared on his website. on February 1, 2022. Dr Coleman is a general practitioner principal and a former Professor of Holistic Medical Sciences at the International Open University in Sri Lanka. He has an honorary DSc. He has given evidence to the House of Commons and the House of Lords in the UK. Dr. Coleman is a prolific writer and his work is well respected: "Dr Vernon Coleman is one of our most enlightened, trenchant and sensible dispensers of medical advice." This quote is from the British Sunday newspaper The Observer, a British newspaper that has a similar editorial bias as its sister newspaper, The Guardian: socialist, globalist, and godless. They frequently promote views opposing those of Dr. Coleman but none-the-less respect the views of Dr. Coleman as being very authoritative and well-reasoned. "Sharpest mind in medical journalism." This is the opinion of Dr. Coleman by the Daily Star, a daily tabloid newspaper (luridly or vulgarly sensational) published in the United Kingdom. The Daily Star newspaper also frequently promotes views opposing those of Dr. Coleman, but which still respects his expertise. Forcing children to wear masks is very harmful, both physically and psychologically, which the articles that I will read during this program will affirm, and is a form of child abuse. Jesus referred to crimes against children in the gospel of Mark 9:42, when Jesus said: "whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea." Crimes against children, such as child abuse, are especially egregious because children are so trusting and so defenseless. Even in our corrupt society, if a crime is committed against a child, it is an escalating factor in determining sentencing, which will cause the punishment to be more severe. The program title, Liberty and Posterity, comes from the US Constitution, the preamble of which states that one of the reasons for writing and ratifying the Constitution was to "secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity," our posterity being our children and descendants not yet born. As a reminder, on the Liberty and Posterity program, we view all events and activities in relation to reality, truth, and Biblical morality, the same principles stated in the first sentence of the Declaration of Independence that entitle the United States to be separate from, and equal to, other nations: The Laws of Nature and of Nature's God. The Laws of Nature are the physical laws by which the universe operates (also called reality and truth), and the Laws of Nature's God are the moral laws of God as specified in the Bible. Romans 3:4 "let God be true, but every man a liar." John 8:31-32 "Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." James Madison, Fourth President of the United States and one of the authors of the US Constitution wrote: "The future and success of America is not in this Constitution, but in the laws of God upon which this Constitution is founded." "Honor, justice, and humanity, call upon us to hold, and to transmit to our posterity, that liberty which we received from our ancestors. It is not our duty to leave wealth to our children, but it is our duty to leave liberty to them." ~ John Dickinson, known as the "Penman of the Revolution" for his twelve Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania, published individually in 1767 and 1768 and author of the first draft of the Articles of Confederation, the agreement by which the thirteen colonies coordinated their affairs after the Declaration of Independence in 1776 and prior to the ratification of the US Constitution in 1789. If you have a problem with that, the problem is on your end, not ours. A word of caution to those who have the urge to travel to Washington, DC: based on what happened to the peaceful protestors on January 6, 2021, neither sanity nor Constitutional liberty is observed by local or federal government officials in our nation's capitol. ...
