Satan's got a plan
Gene Royer
tenth of their net income to the faith-based organization of their choice.
The Bible teaches us to let the government have its share (whatever current
governmental regulations declare it to be) and to give God His share--which
is a tenth of our increase. The OT says to Honor God with the "first
fruits" of our increase.(Proverbs 3: 9)
Well, the devil--demon that he is--is smart enough to know that the more
money churches and other faith-based groups have available to spread the
Gospel, the tougher it's going to be for him to disrupt the peaceful
coexistence of humans in the earth. So, his plan is to have the government
take away as much up front as possible, leaving a lesser net amount that
Christians will use as a standard for paying their tithes.
Liberal demoncrats (whoops, did I misspell that?) are willing accomplices to
his plan. Tax the people more and more, and leave less money for the
spreading of The Good News of Jesus Christ--both abroad and on our own
shores.
In fact, quoting Hillary Clinton: "Many of you are well enough off that ...
the tax cuts may have helped you," Sen. Clinton said. "We're saying that for
America to get back on
track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're
going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."
"The common good". That's a concept right out of the Communist Manifesto,
and it falls right in line with Satan's plan.
Isn't this a great posting?

No, I don't wonder at all, it surprises me not in the least. I didn't write

Well, I do not believe in a God, as you do, but I believe in a
personality-less collective consciousness. I believe in love. I am not
hostile toward 'your God' in the least - I just don't believe in a God like
that. So, now we have 'deluded' covered too.

Actually, the Bible teaches that believers in Jesus Christ (aka Christians)
have authority over Satan in the Name of Jesus. The Word teaches that when
Christians command Satan in the Name of Jesus, he must obey the command. It
is the Name of Jesus that has the power to command, not the persona of the
man or woman making it.
Non believers scoff, of course, but that is their prerogative.

GET AWAY WITH THORAZINE
This is a lie. On the planet Zarg, very good-looking humans humans live
together in peace and harmony, sharing the wealth and the means of production
and reading Marx. Periodically the Zargons visit earth and romance the locals.
Over eons this has given rise to many romantic myths, some with a core of
truth, such as Leda & the Swan, the Lord and the Virgin Mary, and other
"god"-human rolls in the hay. The offspring of these liaisons communicate
telepathically with home and as a result say things such as "Rich man go to
heaven? Ha. Camel go through needle's eye, too." On Zarg the practice of
mating with the carniviorous naked apes of earth is seen as gauche, however,
and the smart money says we will all blow ourselves up in a final thermonuclear
paroxysm of religious and patriotic savagery.

Do you really think it's dumb to pray for people? Are you saying you don't
pray for your loved ones and friends? Do you never commune with God in
prayer?
Jesus taught that we should also pray for our enemies, and the toughest
thing I ever did was kneel down and pray for Bill Clinton. I prayed that
God would have a positive impact on the man's life. In all the nation, I
might have been the only person praying for the poor guy.
If he ever gets his worthless li(f)e turned around, I might have the

However, I was cynical when I said that there will be a "next time."
It's not too late to stop that from happening. Christians must make

Very funny. For what it's worth, Hitler wanted to bring back the
Pagan gods of the Teutons such as Wotan. The fact remains that the
vast majority of Hitler's followers were Christians.
Was Wendy's reaction perhaps a trifle defensive? I don't expect
Christians to feel guilty. I expect them to be vigilant. It takes
some humility to admit that believers in the Prince of Peace have
done some terrible things here and there in human history. Until
you're willing to admit that, you won't be able to protect yourself
from doing terrible things. Stare into the abyss.
The Jews were branded cowardly traitors. Homosexuals were forced to
wear the pink triangle. Communists, Gypsies, the mentally ill, and
the mentally retarded were targeted for death. Socialists were
persecuted. So were artists judged to be degenerate.
"From now on--of this you can be certain--all those mutually
supporting and thereby sustaining cliques of chatterers, dilettantes,
and art forgers will be picked up and liquidated." - Adolf Hitler
The Philadelphia Museum of Art
<http://www.philamuseum.org/collections/provenance/degenerate.shtml>
sez:
"From the moment they came to power, the Nazis launched a vicious
campaign against art they designated 'degenerate', a category that
included all modernist art, especially abstract, Cubist,
Expressionist, and Surrealist art. Thus Picasso, Matisse, Klee,
Kandinsky, Kirchner, and even nineteenth-century Impressionist and
Post-Impressionist artists including Renoir, Degas, Cézanne and Van
Gogh, were reviled as exponents of avant-garde art movements that
were considered intellectual, elitist, foreign, and socialist-
influenced. Jewish artists such as Marc Chagall were, of course,
singled out for special condemnation."
I'm "socialist-influenced." I'm Jewish-influenced, too. I've
watched one too many Marx Brothers movies. Woody Allen, Larry
David, Gilda Radner. My goose is cooked.
"The avant-garde artist was equated to the insane, who in turn was
synonymous with the Jew: the ninteenth-century founders of German
psychiatry felt that the Jew was inherently degenerate and more
susceptible than the non-Jew to insanity."
Art of the insane. <http://astro.temple.edu/~bigred76/150/hdk.html>
The Nazis opened a Degenerate Art exhibit in Munich on July 19,
1937. On display were over 650 works deemed unacceptable to the
Third Reich. <http://tinyurl.com/3e7tq> Included in the exhibit
were the German Expressionists. <http://tinyurl.com/2xvrj>
Jazz music is insane and decadent. Crazy, man, crazy. "Any music
that demonstrated abstract expressionism, jazz, or experimented with
'atonality' was prohibited. [...] Famous works by Mendelssohn,
Mahler, and Schoenberg were used as examples of unacceptable music."
Of course you've heard about the book burnings. Fahrenheit 451.
Hitler is the closest thing to Satan that humanity has ever seen
in the flesh. Newsreel and propaganda footage has immortalized this
incarnation of evil.

I distinguish between active Christians who live their beliefs
and social Christians who go through the motions because their parents
or society expect it of them. The majority of church-goers are social
Christians. This is akin to Josh and Davida's discussion of
Jewishness--Josh is a social Jew; Davida an active one.
An active Christian will choose (or attempt to chose insofar
as ihs abilities and circumstances will allow) his beliefs over
worldly demands. A social Christian will go along with worldly
demands rather than make a fuss. Most of those who followed Hitler,
IMO, were social Christians. I don't need to know who were whom; God
will judge them accurately and fairly.

In truth, Josh isn't even a 'social Jew'. He has some Jewish

All the fault of Christianity, per your argument, because the
majority of the sheeple who followed the siren call of Hitler's
promises did not stand up. Damn the few who did.
Okay, THomas. Let's now extend your reasoning to Islam, shall we?
The majority of those who followed Hussein's and bin Laden's and the
Hizbollah's and other despotic/terrorist rulers are Muslim.
Did I say "Majority"? Fuck. *All* of those who follow those reigns
of murder and terror are Muslim, Thomas.
Go ahead and make your observations concerning them. Pay special
attention to Palestinians, since bin Laden used the Palestinian
"condition" as one of his main reasons for his attack on the US on
September 11, 2001.
Do you see the flaw in your observation?

In 1933, a German artist named Otto Dix painted a work that he titled
The Seven Deadly Sins.
<http://www.art-for-a-change.com/Express/ex7.htm>
"The figure of Sloth is prominently featured because the artist
blamed the German people's lack of alarm and concern as a primary
reason for the Nazis rise to power."

I didn't blame Christianity. I said that Christians are capable of

I'd belittle a Nazi. Anti-Nazism is something that I "believe in."
I've been called a coward about a half dozen times. Who have I
belittled?
What do you actually "believe in?"

Puppies and kittens. Free, high-quality chocolate for all who want
it. Size 8 capris and kicky shooz. Raspberries fresh from the bush
(a raspberry bush, not a President, hello). A dog that does NOT have
an upper-respiratory infection and who is NOT blowing dog snockers
all over my formerly clean tile floors. Snuggling with your sweetie.
Whapping puffy, overblown Usenet idiots. A return to full-sized

Being free from v!@gr@ and b1g d!ck spam. And all other spam.
Walking barefoot through warm rain puddles. Splashing in the surf.
Making goofy faces at babies to get them to smile. Entertaining
myself. Driving a blue Miata with the top down in the cool of a
spring evening. Being the boss of everyone so that I can make them
all wear 'Tude Rags with little flags on them. Officially changing
Sylvia's name to "Perkette." Oh, and brown paper packages tied up
with strings. Addressed to me. Containing toys and goodies, rather
than bombs or biological agents.

So? You were patronizing, Thomas. You held yourself as being
superior. That's "belittling". Deal with it.

I would have been patronizing if I'd treated her like a "little
lady."
Wendy can take care of herself. I would apologize to her if I felt
that an apology was due. I think that my reaction to her
observation makes sense in context. In this war of words, the
opponent was worthy, the combat was honorable. That was my
attitude. I certainly have no intention of plonking Wendy.

I guess it's time for the usual announcement:
Hey, Nancy--if I ever need you to ride to my defense, I'll let
you know. Since I haven't notified you, I don't need your defense.

posted in misc.writing on 06 Jul 2004 demonstrates this principle in

Thomas, you can redefine it to suit yourself all you wish. The plain
fact remains that you're a bigot. I don't really care *who* it was
you were belittling, and I don't care if they can defend themselves
or not, since I'm not interested in the fact that you feel it
necessary to belittle people when they state their beliefs. I'm
merely pointing out a truth: You are a killfiling coward who has to
make himself feel "big" by belittling Christianity.
Live with it, man, and stop being so defensive.

Your head is way too big, here. Perhaps before believing Thomas's
mischaracterisation, you could take the time to read the thread and
notice your name came into it only when he asked me, after I'd
berated him for his nonsense, who he was belittling. I don't really
care *who*, nor even *why*. I pointed out a fact. That's my
perogative.

How could I possibly belittle Christianity? I'm a tiny fleck of
dandruff in the giant shadow of Michaelangelo. The history, hundreds
of years... I can't begin to tell you. There's not enough bandwidth.
I'm dwarfed into insignificance.

Lutz because his comments are undeserving of a response. I don't

Get out! You haven't killfiled me yet? What am I doing wrong? Too
entertaining, perhaps? Angling for a free cigar? Some bbq? Point the way

a bad name - if I doubt that you have the slightest
understanding of it - which I do not,
and have the slightest understanding of the difference between
government action and private action.
And ah, you have certainly destroyed any case
you might otherwise have had with this senator.
Thank you Mr. Chairman.

Ah, the Literal-Boy approach.
The drunken slob whose only way to feel "big", himself, was to
make scornful, derisive remarks to and about his stepson would
doubtless find your self-defense appealing. <-- note to the
impaired (Hi, Thomas!): I'm not saying Thomas is an abusive
drunken step-father.
