World's Largest Army---US Hunters?

The World's Largest Army. America's Hunters?

The state of Wisconsin has gone an entire deer hunting season without someone getting killed. That's great. There were over 600,000 hunters. Allow me to restate that number. Over the last two months, the eighth largest army in the world - more men under arms than Iran; more than France and Germany combined - deployed to the woods of a single American state to help keep the deer menace at bay. But that pales in comparison to the 750,000 who are in the woods of Pennsylvania this week. Michigan 's 700,000 hunters have now returned home. Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia , and it is literally the case that the hunters of those four states alone would comprise the largest army in the world. America will forever be safe from foreign invasion of troops with that kind of home-grown firepower.

Hunting - it's not just a way to fill the freezer. It's a matter of national security!

Now you know why the liberal anti-gun group wants to take the guns away.

Believing Republicans On Budget Reforms

I will "believe" that Republicans are sincere and effective about controlling our Federal government's spending when they initiate and force through such measures as would: Reduce their salaries by 10% until such time as we have a balanced budget without borrowing money; Require Members and their staff to pay "fair market value" for such fringe benefits as retirement, health insurance, hair cuts, meals in the Congress' restaurants and the other like "goodies" they get; Require members to cut their staff budgets by 10% (Same condition as above; And, without "out-sourcing")

The House can also cut the number and grossly over-pay of Federal bureaucrats; And, should start with Mr. Obama's Czars who are not subject to the same Congressional control as the already in-place Department Secretaries and Under-Secretaries.

Any refusal by Democrats will make good "ammo" for the GOP's use in the 2012 election. Refusal by Republicans would provide the "other Party" with far too much like "ammo".

I will believe the effectiveness of "Tea Party" organizations when they make very public either parties' Members refusal to go along with such measures.

Gospel Reading

The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to St. Luke, the twenty-second chapter, verses thirty-five through thirty-eight.

And He said to them, “WHEN I SENT YOU WITH NO
PURSE OR BAG OR SANDALS, DID YOU LACK ANYTHING?” They said, “Nothing”. He said to them,
“BUT NOW, HE WHO HAS A PURSE TAKE IT AND
LIKEWISE A BAG. AND LET HIM WHO HAS NO SWORD
SELL HIS CLOAK AND BUY ONE. FOR I TELL YOU THAT
THIS SCRIPTURE MUST BE FUFILLED IN ME. 'AND HE
WAS RECKONED WITH TRANSGRESSORS' ; FOR WHAT
IS WRITTEN ABOUT ME HAS ITS FULFILLMENT.” And,
they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords”. And he
said unto them, “THEY ARE SUFFICIENT”.

The Gospel of the Lord!

Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ!

OTHER NOTES

1.In the readings, the words to be spoken by a priest or deacon or, lacking such ordained persons, a prayer leader, are in bold face The words spoken by Christ are in both BOLD FACE AND CAPITOL LETTERS, which words should be spoken only (In order of preference) by a priest, deacon or prayer leader; The words in ordinary type are to be said by all present.
2.If this prayer service is a part of the Holy Mass or Divine Liturgy, it is recommended that it be had just before the dismissal of the People of God..
3.If this litany is had at the end of the Holy Mass or a Divine Liturgy, then any ordained priest or deacon is expected to deliver a suitable homily or sermon at the appropriate place in that service. If this litany is had apart from the Holy Mass or Divine Liturgy, then suitable homily may be given by an ordained cleric or a suitable talk given by a lay prayer leader. “Suitable” here means a sermon on the noted Gospel or a homily or talk of such subjects as: Discerning who the internal and external enemies of the Churches and The Faith are; On means to defend against their attacks or subversions; Self-discipline; The value of prayer in the life and actions of crusaders; The lives of the above-noted saints, on their memorial days; The meaning, to the Churches and Peoples of God and of true civilization, of
the historical events listed above etc..
4.If those present enter in processional or leave the same way, any suitable anthem (e, g, “Holy God We Praise Thy Name”, “Lift High The Cross”, “Mine Eyes Have Seen The Glory”) should be used in the United States. In other nations, equivalent anthems. may be sung. Drums and brass instruments may be used also at such times in suitable, somber or triumphal, march tunes.
5.The Gospel reading's last verse is from the Peshitta New Testament (A new
Aramaic-English translation). Aramaic being the language spoken by Christ and
the translation, “THEY ARE SUFFICIENT”, is more appropriate than the usual, and “loaded”, “THAT IS ENOUGH” as found in too many translations.

DEUS VULT!

Male Homosexuals & Disease Vectors-Revised

Milwaukee Magazine's August, 2007 issue contained the story "Gay in the City" which brought to my mind the possible need to cut away all questions of religion or morality when the behaviors of male homosexuals are discussed and limit debate and actions to the purely scientific base of proven public health practices.

From a purely scientific point-of-view, most male homosexuals (Who have clearly demonstrated a general lack of self control and sense of the "common good") represent a disease vector as do the plague bearing fleas on rats, the flies and cockroaches who hang about "unprotected" food and garbage, mosquitoes who carry malaria and other diseases and other like threats to the health of all People.

If the general and Jewish-Christian foundations of morality are ignored (As is the constant drum beat of the homosexual lobby) and only the science of successful public health programs is applied, the best prevention of any epidemic or endemic disease, including HIV/AIDS, is to liquidate the disease vector(s) most responsible for the spread of the attacking illnesses. Therefore, we kill rats and fleas, destroy flies and cockroaches as much as is possible, destroy mosquitoes and ...!

Of course, I cleave to those standards of human-and-humane behaviors held up by traditional Christian and Jewish standards and maintain that the best reaction is: Love the sinner and hate the sin" AND not the views held up (If not reflected in practice) by Muslims and their cousins, the NAZIs.

Terrorists Swimming In A Muslim Sea

"Chairman" Mao was a most horrid man, a mass murderer who facilitated the deaths of many more than even Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot and Genghis Khan. Yet, he was certainly NOT ignorant or irrational (Although he had VERY different premises for his logic).

One of his most famous "thoughts" was that: Revolutionaries swim in the sea of peasants. (Or, urban workers) who either hopefully support such persons or dare not to oppose them or even not actively supporting them. The French and USA ignored this in Viet Nam and lost their wars there.

Now we are being subject to a newly-aggressive, more-violent and heavily-armed Jihadi terrorist movements and individuals who "swim" in the Muslim ruled nations AND also everywhere where even local communities have a Muslim majority or even large minority.
The latter include parts of the UK and France where even para-military police fear to go. If not "seas" or "lakes", there are such swimming holes in many of the Nordic Nations' cities. Such may shortly become true in the Somali neighborhoods of the Twin Cities and the Muslim-Arab dominated city of Dearborn, MI (Where the local police arrested Christians attending an "Arab Festival" who were attempting to demonstrate their First Amendment rights to "the free exercise of religion").

Islam has been at war with us ("Unbelievers") for 1400-plus years; Even if we deny that fact. The response of too many is a syrup-like, and false, "Islam is a religion of peace" OR such absolute denials of reality as "The various terrorist acts of Muslims are not connected with each other".

Islamic terrorists would not survive for 30-days if their peasants (Or Urban equivalents) would turn them in to any like-minded government authorities. Yes, some Muslims fail to do so because of a real fear of physical punishment OR social isolation. However, I suspect that most Muslims support jihadi as Mohammed, the founder of Islam, insisted that the above-noted war AND the duty of every adult-male Muslim to participate in military Jihad or to support it with "all their wealth" were direct commands from Allah.

Other like, binding and unalterable commands were-and-are towards the destruction of all legal systems other than Sharia, of all governments other than those controlled by Muslims AND all ideologies and true religions other than Islam.

To paraphrase: "Those who fail to study and learn from history will be condemned to repeat it"; And, "There may be peaceful and tolerant Muslims; But, Islam is very war-like and very intolerant

Thanksgiving Proclamations

Our great, national, holiday of Thanksgiving is again upon us! I think it would be in the best interests of your readers to print one or both of the presidential thanksgiving proclamations reproduced below between now and that celebration so dear to so many families in this land---And, remind all of the historical and real meaning of that day.

GEORGE WASHINGTON’S THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION – 1789:

“Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly implore His protection and favor; and whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me to recommend to the people of the United States a day of Public Thanksgiving and Prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.

“Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the twenty-six of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that Great and Glorious Being, who is the Beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country, previous to their becoming a nation; for the single manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of His providence, in the courage and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish Constitutions of Government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now instituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.

“And also, that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the Great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether
in public or private institutions, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a government of wise,
just, and constitutional laws, discretely and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us) and to bless them with good governments,
peace and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science, among them and us; and generally, to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity an He alone knows to be best.”

Proclamation of Thanksgiving
by the President of the United States of America

The year that is drawing toward its close has been filled with the blessings of fruitful years and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the Source from which they come, others have been added which are of so extraordinary a nature that they can not fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever-watchful providence of Almighty God.

In the midst of a civil war of unequaled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign states to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere, except in the theater of military conflict, while that theater has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union.

Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the field of peaceful industry to the national defense have not arrested the plow, the shuttle, or the ship; the ax has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than theretofore. Population has steadily increased notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege, and the battlefield, and the country, rejoicing in the consciousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom.

No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy.

It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently, and gratefully acknowledged, as with one heart and one voice, by the whole American people. I do therefore invite my fellow-citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners, or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it, as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes, to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquility, and union.

In testimony wherof I have herunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

A. Lincoln

Another All Saints' Day & Protecting Jesus' Flock

I. The March Of Glory


At my parish's 2005 All Saints' Day mass my pastor gave a homily in which the great saints of old were mentioned and the great numbers of such Holy Ones marching forward through time was presented to the people.

In my mind's eye, I found myself seeing many columns of God's saints marching behind their special patrons: All the brown-robed Franciscans and those of that persuasion behind St. Francis of Assisi and St. Claire of that same town; Dominicans and many saintly scholars behind St. Dominic, St. Thomas of Aquino and St. Albert the Great; Those attorneys who, somehow, have become saints behind St. Thomas More; All good pastors (Including our beloved John Paul II) Poland's St. John Kanty; And, so forth---Each behind her or his leader in the march to glory.

As for myself, I hope to someday (If that term has any meaning in eternity) take my very, very, humble place behind St. Bernard of Clairvaux (Doctor of the Church and author of De Laude Novae Militae). My view of his column of saints puts the Knights of The Temple (Knights Templar), with their swords used and bloody wounds suffered in the defense of the Holy Land against the followers of that false prophet Mohammed, first behind him. Following them are such as: The Spanish Crusaders who drove those Muslims out of Iberia; King Jan of Poland and all the Poles who suffered, died and yet were victorious at the gates of Vienna and many other places against the Muslim-Turkish hordes; Don Juan of Austria and all of the brave seamen who sent the Turkish fleet to the deeps in defense of Christianity and true Civilization; And, the true Crusaders of today who battle the false, Muslim, prophet Osama bin Laden and his ilk throughout the world.

We should not forget the other false prophets such as the: “Two Emperor Gang” of World War I; The Nazis and Imperial Japan & foolish Italy of World War II; And the atheist communist and very false leaders, Lenin, Stalin Pol Pot, Mao and all of that evil lot. In defense of my nation, Christianity and Civilization [I did serve for three years in the US Navy, this being my only claim to be a follower of St. Bernard and his holy warriors]---Among which are those who suffered and died at such places as Flanders' fields, the Bataan Death March, Normandy's beaches and hedgerows, upon and under the the too-hot and too-cold mountains of Korea, the streets of Baghdad, the jungles of Viet Nam and all the other places where evil is confronted, by true knights, throughout history and the world.

TO THOSE WHO MAINTIAIN THAT THERE ARE NOT JUST WARS AND THAT THE BATTLES FOUGHT, EVEN TODAY. AGAINST THE FOLLOWS OF SUCH FALSE PROPHETS AS MOHAMMED AND OSAMA BIN LADEN ARE NOT JUST WARS WILL BE UNLIKELY TO BE AMONG THE FOLLOWER OF ST. BERNARD ON THE ROAD TO GLORY---OR OF ANY OTHER IN THAT GRAND PROCESSION OF THOSE WHO DEFEND TRUTH AGAINST LIES AND GOOD AGAINST EVIL

II. Protecting Jesus' Flock

We Christians are all parts of Jesus' flock. We are not all lambs or ewes. Fortunately there are still stalwart rams who are ready to defend that flock---Especially when the wethers(ie Castrated sheep) of the Church are more interested in "reaching out to and having dialogue with" the Wolves of Islam than in protecting their flocks. Unfortunately, those cowardly sheep AND bad shepherds include too many (Most?) of the bishops and far too many in the Holy See. This category also extends to all pathological-pacifists and the leaders of some other Christian Churches.

Islam & Like Religious Veneer Terrorist Groups

Some time ago I became convinced (On the basis of its teachings and collective behaviors) that Islam is NOT a religion but a criminal-terrorist movement with a very thin veneer of religion. It is the largest of such ideologies; But, is no more a true religion than those other like anti-civilization movements as the KKK, Mafia/Cosa-Nostra, Chinese Triads, (Drug dealers') Santeria and Santa Muerte and probably like and lesser known groups.

The first step to save civilization from the Islamic cancer is to declare (By legislative action, judicial decision and through the media) that Islam is NOT a religion and is evil in many of its teachings and the record if its evil deeds as continue to this day in such places as The Sudan, the Philippines, Thailand, and the USA.

"WHETHER THE SECOND AMENDMENT SECURES AN INDIVIDUAL RIGHT: The Second Amendment secures a right of individuals generally, not a right of States or a right restricted to persons serving in militias"; August 24, 2004; MEMORANDUM OPINION FOR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL; As found at,
http://www.usdoj.gov/olc/secondamendment2.htm

It should be specially noted, where ever there is the tradition of British laws, that the cited opinion is based on those legal traditions as much as on the US Constitution.

Who Is My Neighbor?

"Who is my neighbor?" is the essential question for all Christians and many others. The Christ responded by using a Samaritan, of a people detested by the Jews, as an example of a peaceful and charitable (ie Of Love) person.
Certainly, He did not use the bandits who attacked the victim in this parable as examples of such. (Had I been there I might have said: "Master, what should the Samaritan have done if he arrived while the attack-and-robbery was in process?")

Are the unborn our neighbors as to offering them protection? Certainly as they are the absolute innocents having no blame of their own; The same according to the Church as children up to about seven-years of age. What puzzles me is that the Church will not declare that Natural Law allows, if not requires, the use of any level of force to prevent abortions or child abuse.

The same question applies to protecting the "life and dignity of all" as, for example, in The Sudan where loyal followers of the false prophet Mohammed continue to rob, rape and kill in following the teachings of the Koran, this being a all too common facet of Islamic aggression over the last 1400-years and in much of the World.

Are those aggressive-and-criminal Muslims our "neighbors" or are they very much more as the bandits in the parable? Do we have a natural law right (And duty?) to defend ourselves and innocent others from attacks by such AND not limiting ourselves to aiding the hurt-and-injured and burying the dead victims.? Do we have a duty to "strike blows for Christ" as supported by that "Doctor Of The Church" St. Bernard of Clairvaux?. Must we hold our defenses until the sword is swinging at our necks, our girl-children seized, guns are fired at us and the fire-bombs thrown at our church-buildings OR may we take preemptive actions against those who are fiercely advocating and preparing to make such attacks?

I specially am interested in the last question as Mohammed declared war against all "unbelievers" over 1400-years ago, a state-of-war which continues and no true-believing Mujslim will publicly deny and reject!

A Parable From Berkley, Califonia

A schoolteacher explains in the very politically correct and very political Berkley (CA) school system proclaimed to her fourth-grade class that she is a supporter of the Democrat Party. She asks her students to raise their hands if they, too, are Democrat supporter. Everyone in the class raises their hand expect one little girl. The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says, "Janie, why didn't you raise your hand?" "Because I'm not a Democrat," she replied. The teacher, still shocked, asked, "Well, if you are not a Democrat, then who do you support?" "I am a Republican, and proud of it," Janie replied. The teacher could not believe her ears. "Janie, why are you an Republican?" "Because my mum is an Republican, and my dad is an Republican and everyone I love and trust is the same, so I'm a Republican too!" "Well," said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone, "That is no reason for you to be a Republican. You don't have to be just like your parents and (With a sneer at love and trust) those others all of the time. What if your mum were a moron and your dad were a moron and the same for those others, what would you be then?" "Then," Janie smiled, "I'd be a Democrat."


[Being Berkley, CA that child was suspended from school, referred to a local "shrink" and excluded from school until her dangerous pathology was cured.]

Best Qualificaton For Voting

Rather than raw political knowledge about the transient members of ;the Government, I suggest the following qualification for all citizens under 30-years of age.

A minimum of 20-months of honorable service in the Armed forces of the USA or the US Coast Guard or (In such dangerous places as East Africa, East Los Angeles, Spanish Harlem) equivalent civilian service (Not less than 300-miles from their home-town) as the Peace Corps, Domestic Peace Corps, US Public Health Service, Etc..

I am also opposed to any person serving as Secretary Of Defense and his/her next two highest level of administrators being allowed to serve without that same and dangerous service.

The voters should consider the prior, dangerous, service of candidates for every elected Federal office.

An Amendment to the Constitution would be required for, at least, the voting restriction above, which might well have a ten year (After ratification) delay to allow citizens to satisfy this requirement. Feminists and real women are welcome into the noted organizations. Twenty-months of "don't ask, don't tell" is not an unreasonable condition.

"Those who would rule should first serve"; A principle generally held by the Western Roman Empire which survived for much, much, longer than the USA has been in existence; If things continue as now, for longer than it will survive.

"The Closing Of The Muslim Mind": A Book Review

REILLY, Robert R.
The Closing Of The Muslim Mind; How Intellectual Suicide
Created the Modern Islamist Crisis
ISI Books; Wilmington, DE, USA; 2010
ISBN 1-933859-91-1

I must confess that I lacked that sound knowledge of philosophy/theology to fully understand the fullness of the first chapters in this notable book. However, my avocational interest in history allowed me to plow through to the "practical" chapters and content. Although I have provided you with some other reviews far below, my own comments follow here.

1. There was an Islamic "golden age" when many Muslims took the best that other cultures, in their world, to develop Islamic thought. The author noted that the influence of "Athens" (ie Logic and critical thinking) allowed some Muslims to look to "cause and effect", one of the bases of the scientific method, and to use logic in an effort to understand anything, including the nature of God/Allah. Much of what had been lost in the West of "Athens" (And other intellectual treasures in lands conquered by Islam) was saved and sent back to the West. During this time much of what some of today's Muslims present (Perhaps as "disinformation") to non-Muslims as evidence of the flexibility and openness of Muslims.
2. During that era some Muslims used the above methods to develop critical-and-scientific thinking and began the development of physical science in the Muslim world.
3. To the detriment of the Islamic world, Muslims and all others in this world The persons controlling policy and teachings in Islam attacked the intellectual methods noted above and condemned all such thinking as shirk (ie Heresy) and harram (Forbidden), to the extent that the possibility of the death-penalty was a possible-probable fate for any Muslims who wished to use the noted and rational approaches to knowledge and thinking.The focus became blind obedience (Of course as guided by the legalistic "thinkers" of the newer and retrograde Islam), It was maintained that nothing could occur without the direct intervention of Allah, even to the extent that Hydrogen and Oxygen could not become water without His allowing such. This newer Islam eliminated any NATURAL LAW, in the physical or moral worlds.
4. I do note that Mr. Reilly did declare that the above came out of the Sunni branch of Islam; But, also noted that today's use of the Internet and the influence of the extremist Islam supported by the oil-rich Saudis has been spreading this view to other Islamic communities/sects.
5, This blind obedience and lack of moral Natural Law has led to a wide-spread:Lack of consideration of any "unbelievers" or outsiders as real human beings; And, a willingness to put into active effect those Koran-based teachings which allow or encourage, and often command, the use of murder, rape and enslavement, genocide, and the other horrors presented by Mohammed as the actual and unalterable (Since Mohammed's death) words of Allah. There is also an expressed preference for the "use of the sword" to "spread the word".
6. Some years ago I forced myself to read Hitler's Mein Kampf. After reading the Koran I found too many parallels (Hatred of Jews, Anti-Intellectualism, desire to destroy all other ideologies/religions, a glorification of violence, Etc.) to be willing to accept either as a guideline for human-humane behaviors and society.

My hope is that all teachers whose classes touch on Islam, all non-Muslim religious leaders, all elected and policy setting appointed officials, editors-and-publishers, TV "talking heads", senior military and diplomatic staff and all other "thought leaders" become aware of Mr.Reilly's work and thoughts AND integrate them into their policies, teachings, commentary, editorials, sermons, etc.. As to Christian leaders who become aware of this book, failure to read, understand and apply its lessons could well be considered a sin against that religion or treason against its daughter, Western Civilization (Or, such of it as is left to us). The same treason could be assigned to the other noted persons who do the same as well as "misconduct in office" or very unprofessional conduct.

Of course, it would be best if the like Muslim officials, teachers, etc. took this book's lessons to heart and returned Islam to a rational and golden age.

New Words For Our Era

Every age requires or generates new words to reflect the spirit of the ear and to provide a shorthand method of expressing thoughts and concepts which would otherwise require sentences or phases ore even paragraphs to express. "Radar", "beat", "WMD", "N-word" and others are four among many thousands of such terms. Below is my offering of four ;more, which should be approved for use by your staff via your publication's "style book" and also used in the broadcast media.

obama, noun: A lie so blatant that only the mentally limited or intoxicated cannot fail to recognize it as such; But, one which most will not declare a lie for fear of being called a "racist". This should noun should now replace the less emphatic sharpton.

to muslim-speak. verb: To tell lies no less than obamas in magnitude; But, with the intent of providing military-type disinformation to excuse-or-cover the methods (eg Murder, rape and enslavement, genocide, perpetual war with unbelievers, treaty-breaking) and the goals of Islam (eg Destruction of all religions-or-ideologies other than Islam, Placement of the entire world under the rule of Muslims, Replacement all political-and-legal systems with Sharia).

islamoforia noun: The state of being on-guard against Islam; Based on the Greek word for being on-guard; To replace, for a free and armed People, the word "Islamophobia".

homoaidia noun: The normal state or reaction of most males to being confronted with the physical actions of male homosexuals; Based on the Greek word for disgust or revulsion; To normally replace the word homophobia, except where minor children are involved.

================================================================

These new words can be adapted in such sentences as below.

"The obamas put forth by Iman Feisal Rauf, about the "9/11" Mosque, surely raised my
level of islamoforia!"

"The films of the Sydney, Australia's "gay pride mob" maxed-out my homoaidia!"

Isalm, Christianity, Truth & Teaching Muslims

Too many "Christian religions leaders" and editors/publishers of "Christian" periodicals are so ignorant of history (Or, for devious reasons, w, or with most Muslims; But, with a small number of terrorists who are Muslim.

They are dangerously wrong! The war was declared by Mohammed, against all "unbelievers", more than 1400-years ago and is perpetual until all such either join Islam or accept the degrading and slave-like status of dhimitude. This war continues throughout the world, to this day, in such places as The Sudan, other parts of Africa, Thailand, The Philippines and the USA.

That war is called Jihad which may be conducted by individuals (eg Major Hasan of Fort Hood treason & infamy), small groups (eg The 19 "martyrs" of "9/11"), State supported bands (The janjaweed of The Sudan) and even national armies.

Islam requires that all of its adult males wage military/violent jihad or "support it with all their wealth" (The end point of much/most "Islamic charities").

Islam itself is NOT a religion; But, a criminal-terrorist movement whose basic teachings allow or encourage the use of murder, rape and enslavement, genocide, the above-noted perpetual war, unjust treatment of women and "unbelievers" with the goal of destroying all forms of government and law other than under Sharia. That Islam is a religion is the biggest lie in history---And, makes a liar of everyone who repeats it.

As a Christian I am not to hate individuals (eg Muslims); But, I do hate Islam and will support all efforts to destroy it and those who wage war or plan to wage war in its name.

Since we are at war with Islam (As declared by Mohammed and continued by his followers to this day), we should make the same efforts we used to destroy Nazism. Any future "9/11" style attack should be answered by an "object lesson"; The only problem is selecting the right target.
This would not be a matter of vengeance or revenge; But, an matter of educating the followers of this foul ideology that sins require penance and crimes require punishment in a "language", the only one, they understand.

For those who beat the drum of forgiving enemies, I am willing to do so (We should be willing to do so) when the sinners admit their offenses with the real intent of not repeating them! ('Go and sin no more".)

Failure to tell the truth about Islam (Or forwarding it in any manner) is "bearing false witness" against the multitude of the victims of that Nazi-like ideology and is evil in itself by any such acts of commission or omission.

The Koran: A "Holy Book"?

Some years ago I forced myself to read a book (And its related documents) which had hatred of Jews as a core idea, glorified war, expressed a general hatred of those who disagreed with the author and led to a great war and gross acts of genocide. That book was A. Hitler's "Mein Kampf".

More recently I read a like book (And associated documents) which has much the same theme, has resulted in a 1400-year history of aggressive wars and many acts of genocide to this day in such places as the Sudan. That book is the Koran.

Now, is the "Koran" a "holy book"?????

I Will Burn Hate Literature

I am, with the intent of very publicly burning such, collecting some hate-filled books and other literature. This act may result in in some feeling that their ideology, that ideology's founder and, in some cases, ethnic background were the subject of deadly insults. However, as that literature allows or encourages or glorifies, and often commands, the use of murder, enslavement, genocide, war, the establishment of one group of people of being superior to all others, they will be burnt before as many persons and news reporters as possible!

That printed material includes, but is not limited to, such as: Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf; Other Nazi publications; Many pre-1945 Japanese government and press documents; The same for that from the misrule of Bonito Mussolini; The terrible edicts of J. Stalin and Pravda press releases and Mao's writings.

What did you think I would be burning? Did I miss some such hate-filled book?

De Laude Novae Militae--Revisted

DE LAUDE NOVAE MILITAE: REVISITED

by James Pawlak

7 January 2004
1st Revision: 2 August 2004
2nd Revision: 28 November 2005


Benedictus dominus deus meus qui docet manus meas ad proelium.


“IN PRAISE OF THE NEW KNIGHTHOOD”--INTRODUCTION:: This work was written by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux one of the few declared “Doctors of the Church” in the year of our Lord, 1129 and was addressed to the first Master General of the Military Order of Templars. Although almost 1,000-years old, this document can still speak to us at a time when the Churches and Peoples of God are under external and internal attack by those who would destroy them and leave only a desolation of moral and intellectual emptiness as is the apparent goal of the Evil One.

THE AUTHOR AND HIS AUTHORITY: Saint Bernard was born in 1070 and died in August, 1153. As a “Doctor of the Church” his writings have great weight in the definitions of what is the correct view of the Church and its teachings. It applies to all Christians in all subsequent times, especially those under attack by the followers of that false pseudo-prophet Mohamed.

DE LAUDE NOVAE MILITAE-THEN: This work addressed the spiritual direction of what was then a new order of knights, the Templars, who were pristine in their commitment to the Church and their willingness to physically protect it in the Holy Land. If that Order became corrupt at a later date (The downfall of the Templars may have been caused by the greed of a French king and jealousy within the Church), that does not detract from the teachings of St. Bernard and the value of such knighthood in 1129AD; And for all who are, formally or informally, knights who protect us from evil, even to this time..

This direction was specially needed after the misbehavior of some crusaders in both Constantinople and in the Holy Land.

DE LAUDE NOVAE MILITAE—NOW AND IN THE FUTURE: At the very least and at this time the Church is being attacked by external enemies, generally “muslims”, in the Sudan, the Philippines and in other places. Many of those who support the teachings of the Koran and the Hadith are attacking (Directly or by giving active support to those who do) all civilization every where, even in “islamic” nations. This is not a new conflict as those who follow the teachings of that false and pernicious prophet Mohamed have, for more than 1400-years, have continued their adherence to the Koran's commands for aggressive war (Jihad) against all others and, thereby, work the evil of retail murder, genocide, rape, pillage, the destruction of cultures and the social, political, legal and economic subjugation of those not “muslims” and of all women.
It seems reasonable that we need a new military order of knights who will have that same commitment as did the early Templars and will follow the teachings of St. Bernard as to the proper way in which to be knights and to “fight the good fight”. Why?
Because, with the exception of too few in the USA and even fewer in other places, no one in this world is willing to declare the truth about the danger of “islam” (Perhaps motivated to silence by Arab controlled oil or pathological pacifism or “political correctness” or (Like France} a large and aggressive “muslim” community or a hate of the Churches' moral teachings (Which teachings confront their self-centered, fragile and meaningless senses-of-self-worth).

Therefore, we now require some organized force or agreeable class of unorganized persons who will defend the Churches of God and civilization from such attacks as now exist and have existed for almost 1500-years.

What then did Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, Doctor of the Church, write about the proper way of being a Christian knight?

SAINT BERNARD'S STATEMENTS: I have reviewed the translation of De Laude Novae Militae available to me, edited out those parts which were specific to only the time in which they were wrote, made slightly free with the translation (To suit modern usage) and am left with the following, given as if there were such a new military order in this time and already at work in this world, especially the Middle East.

“It seems that a New Knighthood has recently appeared on the earth, precisely in that part of it, the Orient (nb The Middle East), in which He visited
from on high in the flesh. As He then troubled the princes of darkness in the
strength of His Mighty Hand,so there he now wipes out their followers, the
children of disbelief, scattering them by the hands of His mighty ones. ... This
is, I say, a new kind of knighthood and one unknown to the ages gone by. It
ceaselessly wages a twofold war both against flesh and blood and against a
spiritual army of evil ....

Go forth confidently then, you knights, and repel the foes of the cross of
Christ with a stalwart heart. Know that neither death nor life can separate you from the love of God which is in Jesus Christ; And in every peril repeat, “Whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's.” What a glory to return from in victory from such a battle! How blessed to die there as a martyr! Rejoice, brave athlete! If you live and conquer in the Lord; But, glory
and exult even more if you die and join your Lord. Life indeed is a fruitful
thing and victory is glorious, but a holy death is more important than either.
If they are blessed who die in the Lord, how much more are they blessed who die
for the Lord! ....

Indeed, danger or victory for a Christian depends on the dispositions of his
heart and not on the fortunes of war. If he fights for a good reason, the issue
of his fight can never be evil; And, likewise, the results can never be considered
good if the reason were evil and the intentions perverse. If you happen to be
killed while you are seeking only to kill another, you die a murderer. If you
succeed, and by your will to overcome and to conquer you perchance kill a man,
you live a murderer. Not it will not do to be a murderer, living or dead, victorious
or vanquished. What an unhappy victory---To have conquered a man while yielding to vice and to indulge in an empty glory at his fall when wrath and
pride have gotten the better of you. ...

But, the Knights of Christ may safely fight the battles of their Lord, fearing neither sin if they smite the enemy, nor danger at their own death, since to
inflict death or the die for Christ is no sin, but rather, an abundant claim to
glory. In the first case, one gains for Christ, and in the second, on gains
Christ Himself. The Lord freely accepts the death of the foe who has offended
Him, and yet more freely gives Himself for the consolation of the fallen knight.

The knights of Christ, I say, may strike with confidence and die yet more
confidently, for he serves Christ when he strikes and serves himself when he
falls. Neither does he bear his sword in vain, for he is God's minister, for the
punishment of evildoers and for the praise of the good. If he kills an evildoer, he
is not a mankiller; But, if I may so put it, a killer of evil. He is evidently the avenger of Christ towards evildoers and he is rightly considered a defender
of Christians. ... When he inflicts death it is for Christ's profit and when he
suffers death, it is for his own gain. The Christian glories in the death of
the pagan (nb At that time, “muslims” were considered pagans), because
Christ is glorified ....

I do not mean to say that the pagans are to be slaughtered when there is
any other way to prevent them from harassing and persecuting the faithful,
but only that it now seems better to destroy them than evil should come to theirjust and that the righteous be tempted into wrongdoing (i.e. Converting to
“islam” for economic or social or status reasons OR by force?).

What then? If it is never permissible for a Christian to strike with the sword, why
did the Savior's precursor (nb St. John the Baptist) bid the soldiers to be content with their pay, and not forbid them to follow their calling? ...

Thus when the transgressors of divine law have been expelled, the righteous
nation that keeps the truth may enter in security. Certainly it is proper that
nations who love war should be scattered, and those who trouble us should be
cut off and that all the workers of iniquity should be dispersed .... Let both
swords (Emphasis added; Probably a reference to: Luke 22: 35-38) of the faithful fall upon the necks of the foe, in order to destroy every high thing exalting citself against the knowledge of God, which is the Christian faith ....”

FURTHER COMMENTS: The language of this document is, by modern standards, very elaborate and convoluted. Much of this document applies only to the time in which it was written and to the Jerusalem and Templars of that time.

However, much of the teaching applies to all ages and to the use of military force by Christians. If the Christian warrior avoids pride, vengeance and other like weaknesses and battles only for justice, for the punishment of evildoers and for the protection of innocents (e.g. Christians in “islamic” nations), then killing incidental to such noble activities is not sinful and is not murder.

The calm, without-hate, professional and focused waging of war by the forces of the USA, Poland, the UK and a few other nations in Iraq and Afghanistan appear to generally meet the standards set by this noted Doctor of the Church. The reflective person might compare such knightly waging of war with the emotional, hateful, vengeful and assassin-like behaviors of such organizations as Hitler's SS {Einsatzgruppen}, Serbian genocidists, Latin American death squads, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbullah, Black September, the insane persons who follow Osama bin Laden, those who directed the Iraq-Iran war of a few years ago and too many others to name.

If the modern, Christian, knight now serves under the flag of a secular nation, it does not matter. If such a knight serves privately, it does not matter. What does matter is service up to the standards set by St. Bernard and what is in the mind and heart of every such knightly person.

I note that those who, in Iraq, did not come up to these standards are being punished.

Although St. Bernard questions the propriety of killing to defend ones self, the Catechism Of The Catholic Church declares the ultimate right to self-defense and the duty to defend others to be proper and does not put excessive limits on the use of force to do so; And, by extension and so as to not make that teaching meaningless, on the access to effective and individual weapons when the civil authorities cannot provide effective and immediate protection.

Of course, such a knighthood as is described above cannot flourish in an unjust society (This lack may have been at the base of the failure of the Templars and of the Crusades of ancient times). Therefore, our posited and new knighthood must look to their own society as to instilling justice and morality. By preference, this should be done by the persuasion of others to just and moral ways OR by prayer OR by political and economic actions. Lacking success by those methods, the use of force is justified AND necessary!

MECCA DELENDA EST

The Ninth Circuit Wrong Again

The US Ninth Circuit Court Of Appeals (On the "left coast") has ruled that it is "OK" for police to put a GPS device on a suspect's auto, out of sight, in the dead-of-night, on his property (ie Driveway) (1) to track his later movements, without a warrant obtained from a judge

This represents another example of tyrannical judges who either cannot understand the intent of the writers of our Bill Of Rights OR, as is more likely, do not wish to accept that basis of our laws as still in-force. This is not much different to the lack of respect for the First Amendment's "Congress shall make no law...", the "...shall not be infringed" of the Second Amendment (As well as the meaning of "militia" in the late 1780s (2) ) and the entire Tenth Amendment.

More importantly, they ignore the fact that the Constitution provides, by amendment, its own methods for adding or deleting rights through the People's elected representatives and NOT by judicial fiat. The Ninth Circuit Court Of Appeals has, by the above noted ruling, taken upon itself AND from the People the power to remove a civil right.

New Muslim Related Industry For USA

Without regard to the practices-and-policies of the Obama administration, it is reasonable to state that those jobs which pay more in taxes than they use up are chiefly created by small businesses.

If the below parable was a news report, I would buy in on any stock offering for such a company.



A friend of mine just started his own business, making landmines that look like prayer rugs.

It's doing well. He says Prophets are going through the roof.

Man shot in head notices five years later

* AP
* From: AP
* August 25, 2010 10:41AM


A MAN living in Germany was shot in the back of his head, but it took him five years to realise it, police say.

The 35-year-old man was hit by a .22-calibre bullet in the town of Herne as he was out in the street partying and drunk on New Year's Eve five years ago, police said overnight.

They say the man recalled receiving a blow to the head, but told them he didn't seek medical assistance at the time.

The bullet did not penetrate the skull, and police say the Polish man only went to see a doctor recently when he felt a lump on the back of his head.

An X-ray showed an object under his skin, and doctors operated and found the projectile.

Police say it may have been a stray bullet fired by a reveller in celebration.

"Wisconsin Needs Bold Initiatives"

On Aug. 22nd the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel published "Wisconsin needs bold initiatives" as written by two academics. This offering was a matter of too many words to express too little and, more importantly, too little of value.

The reason so many of our best graduates are leaving Wisconsin (For where?) is that the new-and-needed jobs are not in our State. The authors are backwards in their reasoning. The initiatives needed do not include yet more tax eating agencies; But, those which will create such jobs as will keep those persons, educated at a great cost to themselves and to tax-payers, here. Those initiatives include:
1. Cutting back state spending so as to establish a state budget which is balanced without the black-magic of borrowing (Against our decedents' incomes) and political transfers from one democratically established fund to those which benefit the Governor of the day.
.2. The establishment of those policies which will reduce the load on small businesses and companies which high R&D budgets, both of which are central to job-creation.
3. Establish a program to give a noticeable part of paid tuition back to students who continue to live in Wisconsin and pay taxes here.
4. Make all payments to UW for patents or copyrights directly to the State General Fund for democratic allocation in accordance with the acts of the People's most direct representatives.
5. Freeze all increases in State salaries (Including those within UW) until
the above steps in firmly in place.

"Moderate Muslims"???

So, you think you have heard a "moderate Muslim" speak or write. You might send any such person a letter (See example below) to determine if they are really "moderate". Better yet, keep a copy for "discussion" with any such person you might meet, ON NEUTRAL GROUND, on a face-to-face basis.


Dear Abdul & Fatima:

This note, with the definition below, is being sent to you in response to your presumed claim to be a “Moderate Muslim” as per your ________ of ______.. If you are indeed such a person, then you will have no problems falling within the definition of “Moderate Muslim” given below.

“MODERATE MUSLIM” DEFINED

1.A person who makes a very public proclamation that s/he is a Muslim along with giving out his/her name, address, occupation and place of employment.
2.A a person who then makes a very public rejection and condemnation of all of the teachings within the Koran, Hadith, Sharia and other Islamic teachings which allow or encourage, and sometimes command, the use of murder (eg Killing anyone who “insults” Mohammed or the Koran), rape and enslavement, genocide (eg Killing all Jews), perpetual war with “unbelievers” until they submit to Islam, lying to and stealing from such “unbelievers” and the very inferior legal and social status given by Islam to all “unbelievers” and all women.
3.A person who then demands that all such teachings be stricken and removed from the Islamic texts noted above.
4.A person who then very publicly inks-out of a copy of the Koran all those verses which support the above noted, inhumane and anti-civilization acts.

Of course, you would be much more believable, as to your claim of being a “Moderate Muslim” if you would very publicly state the historical truths that Mohammed of Mecca and Medina was a murderer, bandit, liar and treaty-breaker and the sexual abuser of a nine-year-young girl-child.

Now, are you a “Moderate Muslim” or a standard-and-dangerous follower of the ideology called Islam with all of its differences in teachings from the Faiths of the Jews, Christians, Baha'i and Sikhs?

Curiously yours,
Diego Matemoros

OH YES: I HAVE SENT OUT SEVERAL OF THESE LETTERS TO MUSLIMS APPEARING ON VARIOUS TV SHOWS AND HAVE YET TO GET A RESPONSE.

Troops Back From Middle East??

There are good reasons to bring our troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan and, thereafter, from the EU.

1. These battle hardened troops could be redeployed to our border with Mexico to insure border security (Against job-and-identity thieves, Middle-Eastern terrorists disguised as Latinos, "gang bangers", drug lords' "hit" and kidnapping squads, previously deported criminals and other such scum), prevent or react to a Pancho Villa style raid on US territory AND to complete an effective border-fence (Not less than four rows of razor ribbon required) by use of engineer units backed-up by regulars.
2. To be available to execute their right to vote (Well before the 2012 elections) , now often very difficult to those troops (Could keeping them overseas be part of Mr.Obama's plan for reelection?).
3. To let those unruly and Islamic terrorists of that region kill each other as they have for the last 1400-years rather than focusing on killing "unbelievers".
4. To be available to suppress Islamic violence in the USA, most specially in the "no go" (And probably heavily armed) Muslim enclaves in our nation.

After that, the US troops in the EU should be recalled to the USA to the savings of much of our tax dollars. If, and only if, the nations of the EU wish to defend themselves from the aggression of Czar Putin and the too many Muslims now living there they must then increase their armed forces and related spending (It would be best if they did not arm-and-train terrorists---Muslims).

The disadvantages of the above actions are based on the fact that such Middle-Eastern combat makes our troops (At a terrible cost in blood and treasure) battle hardened and the only remaining large military force in the world in that condition. (UK and Canadian troops are excellent; But, they are parts of very small forces. Also, it is better to fight the criminal-terrorist movement known as Islam away from our cities and fields.

Jackson, Wilson, Obama, Mexico & Wrath

Florida was once the possession of Spain. However, Spain was unable to exercise its sovereignty and control its border with the USA and to prevent the Seminoles from raiding into the USA from their Spanish refuge. Andrew Jackson ordered US troops into Spanish territories and drove those raiders well away from our border.

During Mexico's early 20th century revolution, that nation was unable to exercise sovereignty over much of its land and its border with the USA. In 1916 "Pancho" Villa led a raid into New Mexico and murdered US Citizens. President Wilson ordered US regulars into Mexico in an unsuccessful attempt to capture Sr. Villa. Although unsuccessful in that effort, the raids into the USA ended----Until today's incursions by heavily armed smugglers, hit squads and kidnapping gangs.

It is very clear that the USA does NOT exercise sovereignty and control over much of its border with Mexico and, in essence, has turned over large parts of that area to Mexican outlaws. (Since those areas are effectively NOT within the control of governments, citizen militias and committees-of-vigilance should feel free to operate within them to suppress outlaws and terrorists---By any necessary means.) Certainly, equity and Natural Law denies governments any ethical recourse against armed parties (Government or others) who invade areas-outside-the-law to suppress banditry and terrorism.

To paraphrase: "Those who do not study and learn from history will be condemned to repeat it". To put it another way: Must we wait on a Pancho Villa style raid into the USA before we effectively and completely control our Southern border?

Perhaps, we should bring our battle-hardened troops back from Afghanistan (And leave the tribal leaders of that non-nation to kill each other as they have for 1000-plus years) and bring those men and women back to the USA where they would secure our border AND suppress banditry in the free-fire-zone which is much of Northern Mexico.

That would also make it more likely that their votes would be counted in the 2010 and 2012 General Elections as those Union troops did with their 70%-plus vote for Lincoln and the Republican Party in the 1864 election. (Hmmm! Is it possible that this may be a part of Mr. Obama's plans for those elections? His most left wing semi-supporters are critical of his troop use plans; But, may be underestimating the depth of his thinking/plotting.)

Those soldiers might then proclaim (Paraphrased): "If we should have to leave our bleached bones on these desert sands in vain, then beware of the anger of the legions!”

A Falseness Of Pacifism

A BOOK REVIEW

Fahey, Joseph J.
War & the Christian Conscience: Where Do You Stand?
Orbis Books; Maryknoll, NY:; 2005
ISBN -13: 978-1-53075-583-5

This volume presents itself as a “fair and balanced” discussion of violence, conscience, war, pacifism and related issues. However, there are enough errors-of-fact, twisted facts and half-truths (Worse than lies in my view), neglected sources and like weaknesses to allow a fair reader any conclusion other than it is an apologia for pacifism. Some of these issues are provided below.
Fahey lumps together Jews, Christians and Muslims in a essentially like group, falling into a major error of this era.

The Jews entered into a “covenant” (A contract) with the Almighty one. Tyrants do not enter into such contracts; But, rule with total disregard as to the welfare of his subjects. G_d punished and punishes violators of that contract; But, Jews were known to complain to Him of His abuse of “His People”.
The teachings of the Christ presented a family model for the Faith, with a Father, Son, uniting Holy Spirit and, even a mother in Mary, The People were encouraged to consider themselves as part of the Body of Christ in a more intimate-than-family relationship. The Triune God is forgiving, but just, in his actions and judgments, allowing free will and its freedom to fail or succeed an inherent part of humanity.
Islam worships an Allah (So unlike that of Christian Arabs) who is arbitrary, not obeying even his own laws or pronouncements, full of violence and evil. The ideology of Islam teaches that it is allowed or encouraged, and sometimes commanded, to use murder, rape-and-enslavement, genocide, perpetual war with “unbelievers” and the other horrors inflicted upon the world by Mohammed.
Mr. Faley ignores the other two, just and essentially peaceful and monotheistic religions, that of the Baha'i and the Sikhs. The latter group, although being essentially peaceful, know that they have a Natural Law right to self-defense and a duty to defend others. Where the law allows they wear swords and knives to remind themselves of the above. (Their last Guru, in fact, died in the defense of Hindus.)

In discussion the De Laude Novae Militae of St. Bernard of Clairvaux (A “Doctor Of The Church”) Mr. Fahey was very selective in the one verse he selected. He might better have chosen” :The knights of Christ, I say, may strike with confidence and die yet more confidently, for he serves Christ when he strikes and serves himself when he falls. Neither does he bear his sword in vain, for he is God's minister, for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of the good. If he kills an evildoer, he is not a mankiller; But, if I may so put it, a killer of evil. He is evidently the avenger of Christ

Justice Delayed Is Justice Denied

"Justice delayed is justice denied" is one of the basic maxims of our legal system---And the one most violated---Which increases contempt for the Law.

With special regard to current events, that applies to the lack of justice and enforcement of existing immigration laws by the Federal Government and to the like lack of prosecution in the "New Black Panther" case.

If the US Government abrogates its duties to enforce the laws, responsibility goes (In the following order) to: The States; Counties/cities; The General Militia; "Committees Of Vigilance"; And, individual citizens.

Oh yes: The Second Amendment (And its equivalents in most/all states) is the enforcement for the First Amendment---AND the Tenth!

Best Book: Second Amendment & Bill Of Rights

Halbrook, Stephen P. (Ll.D.);
The Founders' second Amendment: Origins Of The Right To Bear Arms;
Ivan R. Dee (Publisher), In Association With The Independent Institute;
Chicago, 2008
The above cited book is excellent for the following reasons:
1. It provides a deep and well documented (Original documents) review of the development of the Second Amendment to our Constitution and, more generally, of the Bill Of Rights and the Constitution;
2. The author presents both sides of each argument before and during the Revolution and during the development of the Bill Of Rights (Especially as to the Second Amendment) and the Constitution as they occurred and iin a logical sequence.;
3. The "Conclusions" chapter are very apparently the opinions of Mr. Halbrook and honestly separated from the body of this history.

Those who teach materials as to the subjects covered in this work would be unprofessional if they do not read this book. "Misconduct In Public Office" would be the least accusation I would make against any law-maker or jurist who fails to do the same before dealing with gun related issues. Editors and publishers who fail to know the materials in this volume should be considered unprofessional if they fail to consider the facts presented and conclusions made by Mr. Halbrook before reporting or writing editorials on the Second Amendment.

The points I found very interesting are here listed.
1. "The Militia" (Or "general militia) is the whole body of adult-and-free citizens who have a Natural Law Right to own weapons and to carry them anywhere they please AND may have a duty to own weapons for defense of self and his State.
2. The "well regulated militia" noted in the Second Amendment is that part of the "general militia" as organized into companies (Often at a town or village level) and equipped with standard firearms, drilled in military skills and organized into larger units (Usually under officers appointed by the Governor of each State).
3. These (Both) militias were seen as necessary for the defense of each State AND, much more important to most of the founders of the USA, to provide a defense against the potential tyranny of an overly powerful Federal government.
4. The "blunderbuss" was an early type of very short barreled shotgun, much like the sawed-off shotguns. These weapons were, in fact, sought by the members of the short-of-weapons early, revolutionary, militias, This is in opposition to the Federal Court case (Citation needed) which ruled that such shotguns were not nor never a militia weapon.
5. Pocket pistols were carried by our Founding Fathers with no concern as to CCW permits.
6. British General Gage was specially concerned about the "back woodsmen" most specially skilled in accurate long range shooting being often dependent on such hunting skills for survival
7. Even at the time of the writing of our Constitution and Bill Of Rights there were persons who distrusted the People as to possessing arms.

From other readings I note that:
1. Abraham Lincoln was elected as an officer of his militia company in the "Black Hawk War"; And,
2. As late as 1856 The US Supreme Court noted (In the Dred Scott case) that only free citizens could arm themselves and then travel as they saw fit. this being a right of citizens at that time (And now).

Obama's Speech Of 15 June 2010

To paraphrase a much better writer than myself, Mr. B. H. Obama's TV speech of 15 July 2010 was: "Full of emptiness and signified nothing"

Making Islamic Martyrs----Help Achieve Goals

If Palestinians, those who share their militant-and-murderous ideology and their flunkies of the dhimitude inclination wish to be martyrs and to meet Allah (Or is it Shaitan or Iblis?), then we (In cool and dispassionate ways)must arrange for that status and meeting in the soonest possible time and with the least "collateral damage".

History has clearly demonstrated that Islam will not respond to compromise, "reaching out", inter-faith meetings/seminars, kindness; But, responds only to properly applied physical, military level, force---By governments (eg The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth),international groups (eg The naval powers who destroyed the Turkish fleet at Lepanto) and even citizen groups (eg The Greeks who won freedom from Islamic Turkey).

Too Many Words Seves Evil?

I have, to my point-of-view, today completed an extended debate with some assertive/militant/pathological pacifists. I have put, over the months, two questions which could best be answered by a Yes/No OR Choice A/B basis. Instead I continued to receive the same flood of words which can not be supported by the rules of exposition and rhetoric, by logic and (I believe) not even by the Scriptures AND, certainly NOT by Natural Law which was given to humanity by God.

I have reflected on the history of such techniques and who has used who is using them. I provide the following examples.
1. As to speeches: Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, B. H. Obama and that front man for the mad mullahs of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinnejad.
2. As to written works: Mao and Joseph Stalin.
3. Those US attorneys who drown the courts with words to convince judges that black is white, up is down and wrong is right.
4. Those appellate judges who use masses of words to support the same attorney arguments AND to destroy the essentially simple ideas and rules of the US Constitution, jury decisions and votes by the People.

Yes, there are cultural differences in speaking and writing styles. Speakers of Arabic and Spanish tend to use more words to express the same ideas as can be expressed in other languages. But, if you do a semantic study of those speeches, you will detect the same excesses as noted above for some of the worst people in history and in our current world.

Those who use too many words, to cover up honest and concise statements, is in danger of being in service to the "Father Of Lies".

Edward Everett was reckoned one of the greatest orators of his time. Yet, who remember anything of his two hour speech at the dedication of the military cemetery at the Gettysburg battle site. Yet, any literate and real American has had exposure to that most expressive of speeches, lasting two minutes, by President Lincoln.

Truth is simple and simply separated from outright lies. Half-truths are usually buried in a sea of words which make them worse than lies. There is also the quote: "A lie told often enough becomes truth" Vladimir Lenin OR Adolf Hitler---A context in which I have place the repetitive and non-responsive statements of the noted pacifists (Who are at whose service?).

Now, have I used too many words?

Pacifist VS Soldier: Parables On Justification

For some time I have, by email, conducted a debate with some very assertive pacifists. Although I know we will not convert each other to even lean towards the others' points-of-view. I have continued this debate so that I might define, for myself, the issues of "just war", the best rules for a warrior, how much force should be used to stop a clear-and-present attack on innocents and to prevent future such attacks.

Below you will find two parables dealing with "justification".

Luke 18:9-14 (New International Version)
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector
9To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: 10"Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11The Pharisee stood up and prayed about[a] himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.'

13"But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.'

14"I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."


The Parable of the Pacifist and the Warrior

Two men went to a Church to pray; one a committed-and-absolute pacifist, the other a simple warrior.

The Pacifist stood up and prayed: 'Lord Attend me and the fact that I limit my earnings and life-style so I do not pay taxes to support military, police and those sinners who use force against others such as that murderous warrior over there; I surely know Your Mind and intentions as to the use of force; I even know that our Father truly told Moses that the Command was "Thou shall not kill" and NOT "Thou shall not Murder1'; O' Jesus the Christ please aid me in the perfection of myself."


The warrior bowed low and whispered "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me, a sinner. Please forgive me my trade. The only excuse I have for such is my intent to protect the innocent, in which occupation I have never intentionally attacked those innocents and only those who attacked them, my comrades and this poor soul. Please allow me Your Grace as will allow me to put my body between the agents of the Evil One and their victims. I dare to offer my blood, limbs and life in that service, in Your Name for the age-of-ages."


Now, who was justified?

PS---THE NOTED PACIFISTS REFUSED TO GIVE A CLEAR ANSWER TO THE ABOVE QUESTION!

The Other Thomas Jefferson Quotes

Much, too much, has been made of the PRIVATE letter of Thomas Jefferson as to the "wall between church and state". Perhaps all should not the following, OTHER, quotes from that founder's statements.

The democracy will cease to exist
when you take away from those
who are willing to work and give to those who would not.

Thomas Jefferson


It is incumbent on every
generation to pay its own debts as it goes.
A principle which if acted on would save
one-half the wars of the world.
Thomas Jefferson


I predict future happiness for
Americans if they can prevent the government
from wasting the labors of the people under the
pretense of taking care of them.

Thomas Jefferson


My reading of history convinces me
that most bad government results from too much
government.
Thomas Jefferson


No free man shall ever be debarred
the use of arms.
Thomas Jefferson


The strongest reason for the
people to retain the right to keep and bear arms
is, as a last resort, to protect themselves
against tyranny in government.
Thomas Jefferson


The tree of liberty must be
refreshed from time to time with the blood of
patriots and tyrants.
Thomas Jefferson


To compel a man to subsidize with
his taxes the propagation of ideas which he
disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

Thomas Jefferson

. President Thomas Jefferson's note on the interpretation of the Constitution: "On every question of construction carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to to the probable one in which it was passed.

Supreme Court VS The Constitution?

After reading or hearing the sundry comments as to the Supreme Court I am reminded of four items.
1. The Constitution has its own provisions for such amendments as would add or subtract the rights of citizens (And legal immigrants); And,
2. President Thomas Jefferson's note on the interpretation of the Constitution: "On every question of construction carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed." --Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Johnson, 1823.
3. There is nothing in the Constitution which provides for "evolving standards of decency" or any granting or taking away of rights except by the amendment process OR to limit the laws passed in the Several-and-Sovreign States except by such means.
4. The 10th Amendment to the Constitution would appear to reinforce that limit.

I Want THESE Immigration Laws!

Too strict ?
The above laws are current immigration laws of MEXICO !


These sound fine to me. NOW, how can we get these laws to be America 's Immigration Laws

Immigration & The Christ

The Cardinal-Archbishop of Los Angeles and many other Catholic “leaders” have made claims that Jesus the Christ would have supported open-borders and free immigrations into the USA.

That is a lie!

First, Jesus' kingdom was NOT of this world. How do I know? He said so himself! There is very little in the Gospels with direct application to government as opposed to the great number of verses addressed to the redemption of individuals and preaching His Word to the nations.

The most direct statement as to government was the classic “Give unto Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's”. At the time of Jesus citizenship and residency in the Empire did, in fact, belong to Caesar and the Roman Senate. Through time that, in the USA, has passed to the Congress and the Legislature of the Several States (Yes, the States still have some residual power over citizenship, a power which may be increased when the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution is finally enforces.)

Surprise! Another Terrorist Muslim In USA

I doubt that too many persons are surprised that the person apparently (Self-admitted) responsible for the Times Square car bomb is a Muslim. The exceptions are those politicians, editors, professors, religious leaders and others who have accepted the state of dhimitude, that grossly inferior position allowed "unbelievers" under Islam.

As Muslims believe that the orders-and-commands in the Koran are the actual words of Allah and cannot be changed, it would appear that there will always be an ongoing stream of individual or collective Muslims who will wage the Koran-demanded perpetual war on us.

As that accused person is an American citizen, should (Must?) be charged with TREASON. However, it appears that those in our current Administration, who bow down before Islam (And its core leaders), will in this case, as in that of Major Hasan (Of Fort Hood infamy) not do so.

It also appears that the last sane national decision made as to such pools of terror was made by Spain in 1492 when it expelled all members of that criminal-terrorist movement out of Iberia. The "politically correct" denial of the potential of every adult-male Muslim to be a terrorist is based on ignorance--Or a pathological denial of reality.

Post: "Mecca Delenda Est"--The Why & How

The States' Concurrent Jurisdiction & "Illegals"

Some have claimed that the new Arizona "anti-illegal-immigrant" law is unconstitutional as the Federal (And unenforced) relevant laws preempt State jurisdiction. That is a false claim.

My State (Wisconsin) has laws punishing: Robbery (eg Of banks); Possession of a short-barreled (Sawed off) rifle or shotgun; Possession of a firearm by a felon; And, other and very serious crimes. The US Code also provides for the prosecution of "Bank Robbery" and the other crimes noted above. Offenders may be charged and tried for those offenses in either State or Federal (Or both) Courts. The penalties for State and Federal violations may be different.

I do not know of any person convicted in Wisconsin courts of those crimes who "beat the State rap" by claiming that the Federal laws preempt prosecution by the State.

The Arizona law merely asserts "concurrent jurisdiction" with the Federal government and Federal laws with differing penalties as is not uncommon in such matters.

Honesty in discussing Arizona's law demands the presentation of the above!

Thomas Jefferson's Private Letters

There was much made of President Thomas Jefferson's private letter to a church group, this letter being frequently quoted as to building an artificially high wall between churches and the public forums and sectors (eg "Prayer Days", school graduation ceremonies, Christmas decorations and use of Christian songs in schools and other public places).

Perhaps, we (Especially our judges and politicians) should pay more attention to such of that man's private letters as:
"On every question of construction carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed." --Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Johnson, 1823.

All might consider the words of President Jefferson as to watering the tree-of-liberty with the blood of patriots and tyrants AND as to the fact that an unarmed man is NOT a free man.

Defining Religious Freedom

"On 24 April 2020 the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel printed three essentially anti-religious or atheistic (However, atheism was declared a religion by the US 7th Circuit Court Of Appeals) letters from readers. Those writers all appear to be supporters of the "negative view of religious freedom".

"Negative Religious Liberty" means, in today's world, that no one should be harmed for what they believe (Including "moral" imperatives") or rituals practiced and statements made as to Faith---As long as such are kept out of public forums and NOT considered in voting for candidates or making public policies. This is the "liberal" or "secular humanist" position or standard which, of course, excludes religion-based "moral" choices (eg As to politics, abortion, war and other like and "hot" topics) as are likely to be in opposition to those held by "liberals" or "humanists" from even being considered by the general pubic, law makers, judges, ETC.. (This is, of course, the current and perverted interpretation of the first part of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, the so-called "separation clause"!)


"Positive Religious Liberty" supports the full "free exercise of religion" (The second clause of the First Amendment) by allowing, if not encouraging, "Believers" to proclaim the tenets and practices of their religions in ALL forums; But, also and more importantly for this discussion, to have the ethical, moral and faith-based aspects of religions be accounted as valid issues and frameworks for voting and other public decision making.


Those letter writers should remember that Western Christianity was basic to: The founding of all real universities (The well sources of the science they tout); "Natural Law" as the basic guide to human dignity and freedom; The battles against enslavement of humans as specially demonstrated by the British and USA in the 1800s; The development of art and music; And, most of which is humane in humans. Even in war it was Western Christians who developed the "just war theories", Geneva Conventions and other laws-of-war which "make the best of a bad thing". It has been and is a traditional Christian sense of charity in which our government, agencies and individuals who have given so much to the poor and distressed in the world in wealth AND blood, limbs and lives.


Without Western Christianity and the American exceptionalism which has been in place, your writers would be living in: The deadness of a 1984 socialist tyranny; Or, in mud huts fearful of failing crops or barbarian raids.

The High Cost Of Illegal Immigration

Yes, I am aware many (Especially bishops) in favor of "amnesty" for illegal immigrants (NOT "undocumented aliens") and even "open borders". Therefore, I suggest that you review the data below for presentation to your readers so that they may make informed decisions as to the expected, new, debate on the questions associated with such immigrants.

Yes Mr. Bill Clinton: Words Do Matter!!!

Ex-president "Bill" Clinton has very recently stated, in effect, that "words do matter" and that they can lead to violence. I agree! The following words come to my mind.
1. "Give me liberty or death!!"
2. "If this be treason, make the most of it!"
3. "When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. ...".
4. "Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes!"

These 1770s words might be as applicable today as then. It would take very little to adapt the Declaration Of Independence to fit the true nature of too much of the Federal government of this era. The distance between the patriots of our first revolution and the government they opposed was in terms of sea-miles; The distance between our patriot-citizens of today and the government they oppose is measured in terms of concepts, power and arrogance.

"Who's Hosting The Tea Party?"

The most recent issue's of the Shepherd Express (So well known and beloved by us as the most radical weekly rag in this galaxy)had a front page asked the question: "Who's hosting the tea party?". It then provided its own list of people/organizations as hosts and funders. being those American industrialists and leaders who do real work in the real world AND provide like, non-bureaucratic, jobs for thousands.

My list is different and includes the following:
1. Patrick Henry;
2. The "Christian Militias" of Concord and Lexington who used deadly force to prevent tyrants from seizing their cannon (WMD) and gun-powder (Unauthorized explosives);
3. John Hancock, Thomas Jefferson and the other signers of the Declaration Of Independence;
4. The Adams family and citizens of Boston and the North-East who dumped tea into the water, attacked the houses and persons of government officials and who applied tar and feathers to certain anti-democracy persons as well as seizing and burning a British revenue ship;
5. The soldiers of Valley Forge who endured and with fellow Americans (And some French and Polish troops in French service) earned our nation's independence by blood and other sacrifices;
6. The soldiers of the Union Army called to service to preserve the Union, but many of whom fought to destroy the enslavement of people by White, Black and Native American slave holders;
7. The largely volunteer troopers who liberated Cuba and the Philippines, both now independent nations and NOT subject to US authority and law;
8. Such good men as Harry S. Truman who destroyed the aggressive empires of Germany and Austria;
9. The "Best Generation's" troops and workers who defeated the truly "Evil Empire" of Japan (With its "rape of Nan-King", "comfort women". etc.) and the even more evil and genocidal Nazi empire;
10. Those who fought in Korea and (As I did) kept watch during the "Cold War" to keep such monsters as J. Stalin and Mao from ruling the world;
11. Those who are now fighting against those who follow in execute the worst teachings of Islam; AND,
12. That very large portion (Perhaps majority in the near future) of Americans who have no desire to live in a bureaucrat run "nanny state" and wish the most-excellent teachings and principles of our Founding Fathers to again rule this nation---With special attention to the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution (Which should limit the Federal Government to specified tasks and limit the "commerce clause"), The First Amendment (Without government controls on free speech and as to the "free exercise of religion") and the Second Amendment which, as in the 1770s, enforces all the other rights.
