User ID: 75829441 United States 03/17/2020 02:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | THE SUPREME TRAGEDY OF THE HUMAN RACE Quoting: [link to www.fourwinds10.com] VIOLINIO GERMAIN | 3-17-20 The greatest tragedy of humans is their failure to recognize and comprehend the teachings of ones like Christ and Krishna. The Hindus, Lebanese and Persians recognized and revered their Teacher but did not comprehend him. They sought God, as he taught them to do, by searching within themselves through deep meditation. They became a deeply spiritual people that way, but the Hindus were more deeply influenced by Buddha and overstressed their searching through meditation without following it with action. As a consequence, they neglected the creative action of working knowingly with God, as Krishna more particularly taught. Because of that misinterpretation of Buddha's and Krishna's teachings, the Hindu world stood materially still for these many centuries. The "Christ" of the Hebrews transformed many of His own people with His great love and would have, undoubtedly, created the One-World Ideal of the Brotherhood-of-Man, as He started out to do, if the religion of His day--which He so violently attacked--did not tear Him down and attempt to totally destroy Him through persecution and crucifixion. Then His followers paid the same price for some three hundred years by hideous tortures and death in the arenas, as with the lions This failure to comprehend the divine Messengers whom God sent periodically to illumine man with the Light of God-awareness within him is the human tragedy for which the world has paid in blood, tears and agony for nineteen centuries. It is a great pity, however, that the human race has set itself back two thousand years because of but one thing--gross ignorance. Shall you now have the courage to look at your faulty civilization squarely in the face and begin, at long last, to build an enduring civilization based upon Love and the Oneness of all men with God? This you must do lest you perish. You have no choice, actually. Every cultural institution as well as all industry, commerce and government must place the acquisition of higher knowledge first else Markham's wisdom in saying, "In vain do we build the city if we do not first build the man," will be verified by witnessing another fall of man into chaos and degradation--and brothers, you are there! It is for this very reason that we come forth to awaken in your Conscious Mind the great Truths of God and His universe. We will continue to unfold that which is "wrong" so that you might confirm for self that we bring only Truth--you have watched the long foretold present world crisis come to peaking. You have seen the crisis of fear and hate unfold until it has been recognized, realized, written about and talked about by every man to every other man, and by the press even in its secret bondage, radio and television throughout the world. How long will you turn away and presume that God will, at your whim, bring His Truth through another? It is not to be so! Here it is and you who will partake are welcome at the banquet- -you who choose another table--so be it! We shall see WHO sits at the table of God. “THE SACRED SPIRIT WITHIN”– MITAKUYE OYASIN --PLEIADES CONNECTION VOL.. VI Water is the only drink for a wise man.

Influenza 1918, a look back: Quoting: [link to forward.com (secure)] Homes Must Now Be Heated, Says Board of Health Ab Cahan and Chana Pollack | March 17, 2020 FYI: Reading the Forverts of early winter 1918, with the influenza epidemic ramping up and an election forthcoming, the paper sounds eerily like today’s news. The Forverts reported nearly 3,000 cases of influenza in the city and a commissioner who thought it wasn’t serious (10/10/18). At the tail end of the article, they placed an inhouse public service announcement encouraging women to get their sisters in their tenements registered to vote. A few days later, founding editor Ab Cahan managed to mash up these two critical points affecting his immigrant majority working class readership. If you want better living conditions, like heating in your tenement rooms—vote the socialist ticket. It was life and death, he wrote. Forverts 10/18/1918 HOUSES MUST NOW BE HEATED, SAYS BOARD OF HEALTH WHY DOESN’T YOUR LANDLORD COMPLY WITH THIS ORDER? [Editorial: Ab Cahan] The commissioner of the board of health released a statement yesterday saying that houses where the population currently lives must be warm. Here’s his statement: ‘Every home in the city must now be heated. It’s dangerous for people healing from the influenza and from pneumonia to be in cold houses. Cold houses also cause illness.’ It’s redundant to try and analyze this statement. Landlords’ excuses this year include wanting to save on coal due to patriotism and so they’re delaying offering steam heat until November first. A few weeks ago there was a widely read item in the press about the coal-director ordering there to be no steam prior to November: a report that was later denied. It’s not an issue of discomfort but a question of life and death for hundreds of thousands of people. The influenza disease is spreading ever faster. For every dollar they insist on saving on coal, a father of children, a mother of babies pays with their lives. But what are they worth? As long as there’s any grounds, they find a way to fake out the tenement dwellers. While landlords bind their tenants to suffer sickness and death, they also don’t forget to suck the last dollars out of them by raising the rent. ...(less than fiddy) Last Edited by hillbilly on 03/17/2020 03:41 PM Water is the only drink for a wise man.

Back to the important topics for American Christians: Anne Applebaum goes off the deep end over Trump — and gets 'ratioed' Quoting: [link to www.americanthinker.com (secure)] Monica Showalter | March 17, 2020 Along with Bill Kristol, Jennifer Rubin, Max Boot, and other once respected intellectuals, we now see the same anti-Trump lunacy infecting Atlantic Monthly writer Anne Applebaum, whose self-important loathing for Trump has descended into outright anti-Americanism. ... Jennifer Rubin's death wish for Republicans is factually wrong — and the maps prove it Quoting: [link to www.americanthinker.com (secure)] Andrea Widburg | March 17, 2020 Once upon a time, Jennifer Rubin was an intelligent woman. Things started to go downhill when she went to work for the Washington Post, but what really flipped the switch in her brain was seeing Donald Trump become president. Not only did she lose perspective, but she also lost intelligence, self-restraint, and decency. Her latest flight of NeverTrump nastiness has her speculation about possible Republican deaths during a time of coronavirus. Her speculation not only reveals an even further degradation of mind and soul, but she's got things entirely bass-ackwards wrong — and a couple of maps prove it. ... What's ironic about Rubin's mean-spirited conclusion that Republicans will die is that the disease's spread belies it. Remember that the coronavirus is a disease of proximity, and the Democrat Party is essentially an urban party, where people are jammed cheek by jowl into the same places. It's also a party that facilitates homelessness and enables filth and drug use, encourages reusable shopping bags that are disease vectors; and wants to pack people into densely populated high-rise buildings and public transportation. With that in mind, you'll notice a similarity between the two maps below. The first map is a screenshot from the New York Times's coronavirus page. It shows reported cases, with the larger circles identifying higher numbers of cases: [link to www.nytimes.com (secure)] The second map is a screenshot of a Time 2016 election map showing the proportional winner’s vote total in each county: [link to assets.time.com (secure)] ...(less than fiddy) Welcome to Homeschooling, America!

It’s unclear which is causing more panic in the hearts of Georgia citizens — the coronavirus, the toilet paper shortage, or the fact that parents will have to be home with their children nonstop for two weeks straight. Many other states are also closing schools, so millions of our nation’s families are suddenly experiencing a little of what it’s like to homeschool. My husband and I have been homeschooling since our first child was born. That child is now a senior in high school and will graduate in May. Thanks to Georgia’s “dual enrollment” program (which, unfortunately, has just been drastically slashed by the legislature), he will graduate with an associate’s degree in computer networking, along with completing his K-12 homeschool program. Our second child will follow suit next May, graduating with an associate’s degree also. Our younger two kids will start high school and middle school in the fall, so we trust that they will have similar success in their high school years. ...(less than fiddy) Last Edited by hillbilly on 03/17/2020 05:30 PM Water is the only drink for a wise man.

User ID: 75829441 United States 03/17/2020 05:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Money-Printing Gods Have Failed Quoting: [link to www.fff.org (secure)] David Stockman | March 17, 2020 Hooray! The fact is, the free market would be more than capable of handling a temporary disruption of the supply side—even in the form of the kind of shutdown hysteria that is now issuing from any and all Federal, state or local officials who can manage to grab and open mike. [Click to Tweet] Finally even the robo-machines and day traders are puking, not BTFDing. Today’s 3,000 Dow Point Dump says even they have had enough of the craven dolts who occupy the Eccles Building. You do not need an PhD in economics—or even a night school survey course—to see that COVID-19 is temporary supply side shock which 0.05% money market rates are powerless to combat. Likewise, you don’t need to be a finance wizard to see that with 10-year USTs at 0.78% and 30-year mortgages at their lowest level in history more QE is a sick joke. Adding another $700 billion of government and GSE debt to the Fed’s already hideously bloated balance sheet can’t possibly drive interest rates meaningfully lower, even if rates were a barrier to activity, which they are not. In fact, the new barrage of QE5 is nothing more than a blatant financial fraud authorized by the official criminals domiciled in the Eccles Building. Today, and for years in the past, the FOMC has been scurrying about in the dealer markets swapping counterfeit credits plucked from thin air for Treasury and GSE bonds that funded the consumption of real economic resources such as government salaries, purchases and private housing construction. The traditional argument for central banking, of course, was that a little bit of financial fraud (3% per year balance sheet expansion per Uncle Milton Friedman, for example) could help lubricate the banking system and nudge GDP to steadier performance over time. But what we have now is epic-scale counterfeiting. That is, upwards of $5 trillion of fiat money liabilities at the Fed and $25 trillion at all the world’s central banks, compared to just $500 billion and $2 trillion, respectively, at the turn of the century; and the latter of which had taken decades, and in some cases, centuries to accumulate. Moreover, on top of everything else in the last several days, these madmen announced in late morning today a new $500 billion O/N repo to be offered two hours later. Just like that—up to one half-trillion dollars of Fake Credit was to emanate from the Fed’s “buy” key during lunch hour! Fortunately, only $19 billion got taken down, proving these economic morons and arsonists have absolutely not idea what they are doing. So not knowing, however, they have succeeded in turning the entire financial system into a cesspool of false prices and destructive gambling rackets, thereby stripping capitalism of the honest money and capital markets its needs to function and thrive. What lies ahead, therefore, is a no man’s land of statist economic and capital demolition. Needless to say, you don’t need to be a cynic to understand why the Eccles Building launched this limp baby bazooka last night. The Federal Reserve now, and for many years past, has been the abject handmaid of the Wall Street gamblers, bullies and crybabies. The Fed heads are deathly afraid of honest stock market prices (i.e. a crash) because they know it will make a mockery of their risible claims that the US economy is in a “good place” or that the consumer is “strong” and that they have delivered the hallowed state of Keynesian full employment, world without end. In truth, decades of Keynesian central banking have sucked the lifeblood out of main street prosperity, stability and resilience. It has destroyed savers; addicted households to debt-based hand-to-mouth living; eviscerated the purchasing power of wages via its 2.00% inflation obsession; and turned the C-suites of corporate America into stock trading rooms and financial engineering joints in the service of Wall Street speculators, not the construction of resilient, value-creating enterprises. But now the mask of self-serving rhetoric is being ripped-off the Fed’s (and Wall Street’s) phony narrative about the alleged strength of the main street economy— especially the purported Energizer Bunny of household consumption. ...(less than fiddy) Water is the only drink for a wise man.

But what is really being bailed out here exactly and why? Is this money actually making it to the real economy? Is it being invested to rebuild America’s farms, businesses and industry? The reality is that the only thing being saved are the “Too Big to Fail” banks that are sitting atop a $1.5 quadrillion of derivatives bomb. Of the most bankrupt of America’s speculators are JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Goldman Sachs, whose derivatives exposure hit $48 trillion, $47 trillion and $42 trillion respectively in recent years. [link to www.globalresearch.ca (secure)] It is my contention that Trump is genuine in his desire to “drain the swamp” and rebuild America’s lost industrial base. I also genuinely believe that Trump wishes to establish positive relations with Russia, China and other sovereign nation states which has drawn the ire of the international deep state. However Trump’s potentially fatal blind spot appears to be his tendency to believe the lie that Wall Street’s wellbeing is somehow indicative of America’s wellbeing. [link to money.cnn.com (secure)] [link to consortiumnews.com (secure)] If Trump is intelligent, (and his previous calls for Glass-Steagall’s restoration, and American System practices imply that he knows a thing or two), then rather than bailing out Wall Street by unleashing more gasoline onto the fire, it were better that he took the lessons of 1933 and established a new Pecora Commission for 2020. What was the Pecora Commission? Many are aware of the economic meltdown of October 24,1929 that ushered in four years of depression onto America (and much of the western world). However not many people are aware of the intense fight that was launched by patriots in both parties against the Wall Street/deep state parasite of that age which prevented both a fascist coup against the newly elected Franklin Roosevelt while also crippling Wall Street’s command of American life. In spite of whitewashing revisionist history books that contaminated the past 70 years, America’s recovery from the depression never occurred without a life or death struggle and this struggle was made possible, in large measure by the courageous work of an Italian lawyer from New York. This man’s name was Ferdinand Pecora. ...(less dan fiddy) Last Edited by hillbilly on 03/17/2020 09:39 PM Water is the only drink for a wise man.

How The Deception Works Quoting: [link to www.subvertednation.net (secure)] ... As someone who had the opportunity to learn about close up and stage magic extensively, it’s actually quite easy to spot a ruse, a sleight, or misdirection. As is the case with a magician performing his feats, these charlatans are fooling the masses into looking the wrong direction at the right time, but only the trained eye is able to pick up on it. In magic, there are many things used to ensure the proper outcome of astounding the onlookers, and the reason these things work is this. Often times the methods used to perform some of the most amazing feats, are just so down right simple that your mind will never catch it. That’s right. The methods used to deceive and manipulate are often so simple that your “logical” mind just simply can not pick conceive them. Sometimes the methods are not just simple, but balance on being so ridiculously absurd, that your “educated” mind is just not capable of decoding it. The methods of deception often rely on such blatant and obvious distortions that you would simply overlook them! That is IF and only IF, you should even come close to discovering them. ... SN is not run by someone who dresses like a salesman or a yuppie, and comes at you with a fake smile and hand shake, because SN isn’t trying to sell you on something. The facts don’t need a salesman, for they will remain facts, no matter how you, I, nor anyone else decide to face them. SN isn’t run by someone who gives a shit how you feel about the truths presented. They are simply presented, and you can take it or leave it. SN doesn’t care if you can’t handle a little cursing and genuine anger, and you’ll never see anything “politically correct” to get you to buy into SN and it’s content. ... It’s funny (and sad) because adults are actually extremely easy to “trick” or to “fool” in the eyes of the magician. Adults have so many preconceived notions that make it hard for them to understand when a sleight has taken place, or how it could have possibly happened. Children on the other hand, have very few preconceived notions and ideas. A young child does not know that an adult can’t just wave his hands and make something disappear. A young child doesn’t fully conceive that a coin shouldn’t pass through the solid top of an oak table. Due to the fact that a child often assumes all things as possible (until they are taught otherwise), they tend to catch on to more of what’s happening in the moment. The larger motion does not so easily conceal the smaller one for their wandering eyes. The child is not bothered with the waving of the hand, and is not always intently watching where he was directed to watch, so things don’t always go over so well for the magician with a child. I can honestly say I’ve been there in that position. I’ve performed in front of children and in front of adults, and children are a formidable force to the practicing magician. Sure, many working professionals spend their time doing children’s shows, but I guarantee all of them would rather perform for adults. Not only do children not have the preconceived notions, they don’t have the programmed chivalry to stay quiet when they do catch on to something. Having a child blurt out the secret to a trick can quickly ruin the effect. Luckily, SN intends to continue blurting out how the deception works, and ruin the entire show like a crazed heckler! The only reason for mentioning how a child sees things is this. Once the child has grown to an adult, lived their daily life in this seemingly solid material reality, passed off his formidable years in indoctrination centers being convinced of the solidity of this reality, and sucked up years upon years of programming from teachers, his peers, and the automated brain washing machine we call televisions, all of this changes. ... I could go on and on writing an entire novel on how the deception works, but I’ll leave you with this quote from wikipedia on parasites who mimic their hosts. Hopefully in the future, you will learn to pick up sleights, misdirections, and other ruses as I’ve explained above, but that’s up to how much of your preconceived notions and conditioning you are able to break free of. Aggressive mimicry is a form of mimicry Quoting: [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] where predators, parasites or parasitoids share similar signals with a harmless model, allowing them to avoid being correctly identified by their prey or host. And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become Quoting: Matthew 18:3as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

GOD, the GOD of the bible, is the creator of all...and he doesn't tolerate the stench of those sins to be in his presence. if one wants to see how deception works, one needs to look no farther than the dark shits who push urantia/phony journals. |

Competing Love For Paul / Pauline Doctrine Quoting: [link to www.jesuswordsonly.com (secure)] The Modern Church has instead fallen in love with Paul, or, more correctly, the points in Paul's writings that soften the requirements of costly grace which Jesus taught. This causes a vying for control over the church. Either Paul and his Dispensation of Grace applies, or Jesus and His costly grace gospel applies, as Bonhoeffer highlighted. We have developed two masters. ... Either do it for God's glory, or for all the marbles baby;) Even better, do both. Hit (((them))) where it hurts.
