Just a Silly Story 13

There is one thing I can say in favor of Q’s troll army: For the most part, they understand that the whole point is not activism, but information. This is information warfare. Most of the active participants invest their efforts in simply pulling out details to fill in the blanks on what Q offers in the “drops” — those typically taciturn and cryptic little posts on 8chan.

There is, therefore, a very large host of folks in this Q army who are not active participants, but consumers and sharers. The idea is not to change the course of things, but to give hope for relief from what many people who see as a globalist cult that has created a runaway government that ignores the people. We might debate whether the US government was ever interested in the hopes and dreams of the citizens, but I think Trump’s claim is that we can at least dial it back some to when things seemed to work a lot better than they do now.

Trump is at the helm and doing all the dirty work of wading through a system that has been made intentionally sluggish and unresponsive, and he’s making it more responsive. So the general attitude from Q is: This stuff is happening. You don’t have to do anything except share the story and vote.

That’s not to say this is such an easy task. I’ve already mentioned the recent collusion between major social media services to silence folks who reject the globalist idolatry cult and their Satanic agenda. I noted that there are few virtual sanctuaries to avoid this censorship, and I listed some of them. Even then, the problem is that these services springing up to give refuge to the non-lefties are all still rather vulnerable because, unless they have very substantial backing (money and resources), they will die. Most of them are denied advertising revenue, for example. The popular means of moving money on the Internet, and the banks themselves, are also globalist and hostile to these upstart social media services oriented toward the alt-right.

Remember CitiCorp and it’s ban on anyone doing business with guns and ammo? That’s one of the Big Four Banks in the US. They control and influence a whole lot more than they own, so that ban shut down, for example, a very large number of small local tactical training and self-defense companies, until they could get local and state banking support. And that wasn’t easy, since many state and local banks can’t afford the risk of alienating CitiCorp.

That was something that made the news. It was a terror campaign against those who support the 2nd Amendment. How many things do you suppose a leftist banking community can shut down without getting it into the leftist news media, if they want to keep it quiet?

I am convinced that the so-called Internet shutdown 2 years ago was a first attempt, in this case to prevent Trump getting elected. Back then, there was no Q and the troll army was far more thinly scattered among various right-wing activists aligned in a large number of informal fan groups following major “conservative” media figures. In other words, it was actually a rather easy target to defeat, since their main thing was grabbing articles off the Net and emailing them to each other. But it failed. The action was unsustainable simply because it was poorly targeted.

The globalists are back with a more targeted effort this time. They have gotten the cooperation of Big Social Media, with backing from the money transfer services (like PayPal), and some members of the banking community. The bankers are much more careful about not showing their hand, lest they offend too much their big right-wing customers, so their participation in this scheme is limited and secretive. So instead of jamming the whole thing, they’ve been trying to silence only Trump’s fans, while Antifa and the like are physically assaulting public figures who support Trump.

To the degree Q and friends found effective refuge on the likes of 8chan and Voat, there have been some concerted efforts to run shills into those discussion boards and obstruct the conversation. But because human shills are limited, the CIA stepped up with programming some AI bots to cover more boards all at once. They can post in multiple boards simultaneously, keeping track of countless threads of conversation and tracking individual posters they want to target. This is also why the NSA seized control of several massive mainframe supercomputers named “Snow White” — to keep the CIA globalists from using them.

Without digging into a mass of details (see this rather cryptic explanation graphic), some rather bright members of Q’s troll army were able to spot the bots. For one thing, the bots were very activist, not just info-oriented. A major trend in the bot game was pretending to be harsh activist Nazi shills. The intent was to clog up the conversation with demands the Jews be slaughtered. If nothing else, this kind of thing makes Google and other search engines likely to lower their search score so folks using those search engines would be less likely to discover any forums talking about Q stuff. Your average Internet user lacks the savvy to recognize a bot on the forums, and lacks the kind of search engine expertise to get around such manipulation.

The censorship efforts have just gotten started. All the Big Social Media services are still working toward a complete blackout for the alt-right. We should expect to see coordinated actions, taking increasingly bigger bites out of the chatter. The single biggest target is anything related to Q. My personal guess is something shocking before the end of the month, which works out to “any day now.”

Divine Stress Test

You should expect this time of wrath and tribulation to shake loose things that are fake. This is behind the language of exposure in Scripture: things “laid bare,” sins brought into the light, etc.

During long periods of prosperity and relative domestic peace, there is a tendency to build up social structures and life habits that are impossible to maintain otherwise. It’s more than just luxury, though it includes that. Hedonism runs wild during prosperity. But there is a whole raft of expectations and petty demands that are quite viable in the good times, which cannot survive a time of testing.

This is when systems become corrupt. There’s no reason for self-restraint; people make no effort to hold their hedonism in check. So they explore every possible avenue for self-indulgence. At some point, it seems very much more than just a divine right, but a mandate from heaven that one must push the envelope. This is when self-discipline is turned on its head; it’s the time when all discipline is externalized in the sense that people demand the world around them conform to their extravagant wishes. It always peaks just before God’s patience ends.

Most people can entertain the intellectual concept of belt-tightening, but few have any idea what is truly essential to maintain during economic contraction. They don’t understand that this is not merely a decline in prosperity. God is moving in the power of His own divine justice, seeking to restore a consciousness of our fallen condition. So placing a focus on the material considerations only serves to compound moral error.

The Bible refers to times when the natural world rises up in rejection of any further abuse. There is a recurring reference in the Old Testament to restoring missed Sabbaths (Leviticus 26:34; see the whole context vv. 14-39). It’s a concept utterly foreign to Western Civilization. It really has very little to do with whether you work and keep your business open on Sunday; it has to do with the materialism that makes us forget why we need a Sabbath (Mark 2:18-28). The Sabbath was made to restore the focus on God as Creator and the way His divine moral character is woven into Creation. So the Law Covenants forbid engaging in all that material distraction for one day in seven, just so you’ll stop and contemplate just how broken mankind is.

You can’t keep running along business-as-usual in some endless search for a human calculus of materialistic efficiency. God is still providing extravagantly to those whose mission for His glory requires it. This is not merely an economic downturn with the attendant social disturbances. This is the wrath of God demanding we restore a clear focus on His revelation. He has gone to great lengths to reveal His character and His demands, even going so far as to explain in some detail why these things must be. No matter how nice it gets here, this is not Paradise. The Garden of Eden was a place of moral prosperity, not simply an easy existence.

Paradise is moral restraint, and moral restraint is Paradise. Biblical Law is its own reward. It’s not easy to fight off the demands of our fleshly nature, but self-restraint is the path of freedom and joy. However, it requires grasping fully our fallen nature for that to make sense. Moral restraint is simply restoring what God designed for us, and us for it.

So an awful lot of stuff we simply took for granted should be called into question during times of God’s wrath. We see in Scripture the language of catastrophe: “the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken” (Matthew 24:29). That’s a parable, a prophetic expression with a long history in recorded revelation. That’s what it feels like when God calls our attention to something our fleshly nature wants to forget.

Jesus also referred to social upheaval as the new norm when His divine truth is restored (Luke 12:51-53). This means divorce, for example, but only because a great many ostensibly good Christian folks were married without sufficient soul searching. And the reason they get into those marriages is because the society around them has lost track of what soul searching means. We live a world that is frankly hostile to the heart-led way, so it’s no surprise past decisions that seemed to make sense back then now turn out to be utterly stupid. It’s not a question of the marriage being “sinful” in the simplistic Western legalistic concept of sin, or that either party in the marriage is evil. It’s a question of jumping in without first checking what your convictions could have told you. It can easily be two good people who simply have no business being together as marriage partners.

Nor does that mean divorce is necessarily the way forward. It means taking the time to go back and start working on what your convictions demand, and taking it from there. Again: Don’t be legalistic about it. “God hates divorce” is not an excuse to torment people in a situation only the Devil likes. The context of that quote (Malachi 2:10-17) makes it clear the issue was self-seeking treachery against one another as a cheap excuse for trading off one spouse for another. Divorce was always justified when it meant fleeing from idolatry (Ezra 10:1-4 — purging wives who rejected the Covenant). That doesn’t reduce the horror of breaking families apart, but the issue was that one member of the marriage was determined to destroy the covenant of faith in favor of some idol. What most people don’t understand is that two people of good faith can discern their marriage isn’t going to work because God won’t prosper it.

The whole point of God’s wrath is to restore divine justice, not objectively, but internally in our souls. It is we who must repent, not the situation. God isn’t going to destroy the economy of America, but it will tighten up enough to demand we shed some luxuries. Most Americans will not see it that way, which is part of why that wrath must fall. Don’t get lost seeing the economics and social turmoil; this is a call to spend some time in contemplation and to restore the heart-led way.

Taking Another Break

I had an allergy related infection start at the back of my throat yesterday. I’ve been fighting it as best I know how. It did manage to get into my sinuses, but the sore throat I’ve kept at bay and it’s about gone (gargling hourly with hot salt water is your friend). Between that and the off-n-on rain, I’ve not been able to ride for a week or so. Poor bike sits there looking lonely, and my legs are going soft on me.

We are in a bit of dead time. It’s not as if nothing is happening, but it’s things we cannot see, and won’t be told. There are little glimpses, but the real battle is out of sight from us. Stay the course; the Lord is hardly taking a break like I need to now and then.

Romance: A Summary of Assumptions

The Red Pill Men and Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW), two movements overlapping a great deal, have one thing right: Violence against women should always be limited to self-defense. If you feel the urge to get violent with females, you are doing something horribly wrong in the first place. You aren’t handling your own internal weaknesses very well and you have no business being with women. When a woman gets stupid with you, don’t join her in getting stupid, any more than you would with another man. Getting stupid is called “stupid” for a reason, and we all do it. The whole point in studying humans relations is to get less stupid.

Key tangent: Don’t take yourself too seriously. Individual humans are not all one thing; we only appear to be so. We are actually a complex of multiple beings on multiple levels of existence. Your conscious self-awareness can wander all over your being, but where it’s rooted is the issue. With children it’s rooted in emotions, which we associate with the belly and the bottom of the spine. Some people never get past that stage. Most people believe their consciousness is rooted in their heads. That’s sad, because it’s not designed for that. Yours should be rooted in your heart, which is designed for that. Thus, your conscious awareness knows better than to take your feelings and thoughts too seriously. Convictions are written in your heart by the finger of God, so pay more attention to them. Your convictions are your divine identity, the anchor of your moral strength.

If you aren’t strong enough to help a woman through her stupid times, you aren’t strong enough to be her man. But if you handle stupidity well, you inspire her to help you with your own limitations. The whole key to building a great romance is to inspire her. She needs it. Without that, she has no reason to be with you in the first place. So an awful lot of Red Pill Men’s stuff is about being awesome, making the most of what manly charisma you possess. This is more likely to attract the kind of women who will fulfill God’s design from back in Eden — thus, that term “a help-meet.” For the most part, you are incomplete without her, so the best way to get a good woman is to be a good man.

We firmly assert that God takes an interest in this stuff. He actively works for His own glory, but He wants that glory to come through His children. So He gets involved in the matchmaking process in ways you could not comprehend. However, we reject the false doctrine that there is only one properly qualified candidate for you as wife during your whole life. In your journey of faith, you will encounter windows of opportunity for various different good candidates whom the Lord will bring into your life. Ditch the dreams of holy perfection in this life; that’s a fantasy that has destroyed a great many good things God has done for His children.

Recognize that you bear an aesthetic taste in female flesh. It may vary from time to time, which proves that it has nothing to do with God’s ideal. Discern how your tastes will tend to keep you from seeing the beauty many women possess below the skin layer. Don’t get hung up on your sense of what’s cute.

Don’t choose a woman based on what attracts you. Don’t choose any at all. It’s okay to signal in subtle ways your approval, but the true test of a good match is God moving her to choose you. Sure, there are plenty of women looking for another plaything, and they’ll manipulate you and sucker you in for their amusement. A critical element in all of this is the heart-led way that Red Pill Men cannot comprehend. We differ from them in a great many ways, but can’t totally reject everything they say. Mostly it’s a difference in fundamental motivations. We seek the Father’s glory, not merely the sating of fleshly desires. Most women are well equipped for the sating, and quite willing to handle that, but we have to give them a reason to want us. It’s that inspiration thing again.

So the best way to attract a good woman is to be yourself. Be the man devoted to shining His glory in the first place. Next to that is a huge dose of cynicism. Our Western society has produced a horrifying slander against God and what He says He has created, the average American gal is not worth your time. She may have potential, and that matters, but it does take some time to ensure she’s going to follow your lead out of Western culture. You owe her the respect it takes to work with her honestly so she’s not deceived about where you are headed in life. It’s an art to balance these two things. One is a godly reticence — not gushing and insecure, trying to win approval. Two is an honest report so she doesn’t feel like you are leading her nowhere. You have to work from the position that you don’t really need her, but would be awfully glad if she decides to throw in her lot with you.

There will be bumps and bruises and a great many false starts down that path. It takes awhile to learn how to discern women in a Western society. Again, on average, they aren’t worth your ultimate investment. However, God has things worked out so that you will encounter one now and then that isn’t really too compromised. There’s always at least one in any given context who is sensitive to the divine calling to come out of Babylon to join you. You have to give her a reason, but that good woman will sacrifice an awful lot to be with a man worth her time. She’s there. If you don’t find her, it’s time to invest more energy in being what you should be in the first place.

As early as possible, develop a cynicism about women. Don’t worship, don’t supplicate, and don’t believe even half of what they seem to be saying. Most of the ones you encounter are not right for you, and the demons have permission to make them tempting. Go through life being a man of God and taking all solace and comfort from Him. Don’t be a fool or you will destroy other lives along with your own. Always assume the vast majority of the females you meet are destined for some other guy. Enjoy their friendship, but keep yourself aloof in some ways. Chances are the right gal is watching somewhere to see if you send the right signals, and that includes being stronger than her in how you deal with a fallen world.

That signals you are strong enough to trust for headship. Now, understand that women are equipped to mother for a reason; there are things in your life mission where she’s in charge. You should retain executive leadership, but have no trouble delegating. Good men of God will vary all over the map. There will always be mamma’s boys and mommies to mother them. So if the guy you see in the mirror needs a mom, then find a mom. Be honest with yourself about it. But we are assuming the average guy doesn’t need that, so let’s avoid the (s)mothering types who will interfere with your divine calling. Be aware of the balance of things, because she will need to mother those areas in your life where you cannot and should not be in control. Watch out for women who feel driven to seek out men they can dominate. Most Western woman are taught to do that, and it has really taken root in some.

So your cynicism should say something like this: A few women are deadly threats. Most of them are simply reserved for someone else. In any given context and passage in your life, only one is likely to be God’s gift to you, if there is even one. Most women need a bit of shepherding because of the nasty world in which they live, same as most men. Be a clear revelation of God’s truth to all. Somewhere in the mix of things, if you are doing it right, several may attempt to cling to you. Typically only one of them is right for the long haul, if even that many. Be honorable in how you treat all of them and God will show you which one is ready for that critical mission with you.

Now, if you find yourself already in a relationship with the wrong person, we have a lot of work to do climbing out of the pit and discerning what God wants you to do next. That’s a whole other library of books we could write in restoring divine justice and healing things. A big part of that is understanding how it should have been in the first place.

Encouraging Faith Under Persecution

You can sit in a Buddhist temple and call on the Lord Jesus Christ.

There’s a wave of fresh persecution against organized Christian religion in Asian countries this year. Although China gets a lot of ink on that issue, it’s all over. Church members are harassed, arrested, and forced to sign pledges to be less distinctly Christian. That is, forced to be less Christian in Western terms.

Western churches haven’t done a good job with this. From organized Christian religion in the West, the push-back against Asian governments is in terms of globalist “democratic values.” Nobody wants to offer the Asian believers a way to live with this oppression; they want to use them as pawns to carry on a political battle. Asian governments are well aware of the political influence soaked into most organized Christian missionary religion.

On the one hand, I offer a very distinct outline of faith and belief on this blog. On the other hand, there’s a background of free-form DIY religion. I won’t tell anyone they have to do things my way, but that they should tolerate my weirdness while visiting this blog and participating in the forum. If you examine the Radix Fidem covenant guides (pamphlet and book), you’ll find they say precious little about how to do religion, which is how you can get into trouble with persecuting governments. Instead, there’s much about how to approach religion.

In particular, we refer everyone to their own faculty of faith, their own heart of convictions. This is where God directly communicates with you. We call this “heart-led” because we believe we have accomplished nothing at all unless we can help you find your own direct connection to God. Once that happens, you and God can take it from there. You don’t need us any more.

But if you want to hang around and make sense of the example we try to offer on how it should look in your individual life, then you’ll have to at least tolerate my language and cultural background. But at no point would I suggest you imitate any of that, unless you have no other sense of direction. In other words, it’s a matter of copying me until it no longer helps. You should be seeking your own God-given identity in Him, not in me.

So if you live in any of those Asian lands where the government actively oppresses traditional mainstream Christian religion, feel free to get very creative in avoiding all the hassle. You don’t need my permission to worship in ways that don’t get you in trouble. What you need is the Creator’s own guidance; He always makes a way for His children. He speaks through your convictions to you alone, and His plan is for His glory. You can worship Him anywhere He leads you, and He will honor that.

If your heart leads you to worship Him in a Buddhist flavor, follow that drive. Do you feel more comfortable with Shinto rituals? Pentecostal, Lutheran, Catholic, Islamic, Hindu or simply out in nature itself? Trust your own heart. You have to find peace with God first and foremost.

Granted, there is a wealth of benefit from worshiping with other heart-led believers, but that’s not always possible. Indeed, most of us associated with this blog are quite fortunate to have even a single person who shares our faith in the human space near us. This is why we do things like organize a time of virtual prayer communion: We agree to “meet” via cellphone text messages and synchronize a time of prayer every Wednesday at 5PM Eastern Time. And we all agree that our hearts can sense each other across many miles separating us. It’s not the same as meeting together in the flesh, but it’s as close as we can get right now.

To the degree some might see a compromise here, it’s compromise in form, not in substance. This world is a big lie in the first place, so everything tangible and visible is merely a tool for His glory, but otherwise disposable. Fight your government if you feel led, because we teach you shouldn’t be too worried about the fleshly body. But if you feel driven to fly under the radar, adapt on your own terms. This isn’t Gnosticism where it makes no difference what the flesh does, but we deny that it’s possible to create uniform rules for each other to follow. Your first duty is to find peace with God. I’m not Him, nor am I there with you to experience what He leads you through.

Paul said things devoted to idols are really nothing to worry about; what matters is that you glorify God in the context where you live (1 Corinthians 8).

Social Media Hates You

This article is as good of a summary as we can find. Look for military tribunals in the coming months. But putting every American globalist politician in prison won’t help if we still have major sources of globalist idolatry in other areas of our national life.

Try to understand that Facebook is your enemy, and it should be destroyed. There is far more evil than good in what it does. Google should be broken up. Twitter needs to be shut down. And so it goes — the most popular social media services are the most evil in how they treat users. They all take far more than they give. But worst of all is that virtually every one of the services you can name is deeply committed to the globalist idolatry. That paints on their backs a big target for the wrath of God.

Don’t underestimate their evil. These are the same folks who would have helped Clinton provoke a limited nuclear exchange with Russia. These are the same folks who would do anything they could to destroy genuine Christian faith. They have expressed a willingness to see you and I jailed, tortured and executed. They might shrink from performing this themselves, but they are the same hypocrites who want their armed security guards while everyone else is disarmed. It’s one thing to note that your average computer geek doesn’t care for religion, but the upper management at Big Tech have been sharing plans with globalist politicians to persecute us and bring on an apocalypse.

We are well along the path of taking down the globalists in government. We can see how their end will come, but it’s not so obvious how God will deal with the globalists in Big Tech. I rather expect it will be a combination of things. I’m quite certain the non-globalists in government are about ready to begin regulating these services. Some of them will simply fail financially. All of them are ripe for violence at the hands of some patriot militia types. I still believe that violence will come, regardless of Trump’s best efforts to forestall it.

Try to understand: Historically, every time there’s a right-wing backlash against the left, it involves parts of the military and a lot of bloodshed because the left typically seizes control of every other part of the government. And lefties are all too willing to use violence of their own out of sheer hatred for the right. So it’s always been a bloodbath because that’s the only way to stop left-wing violence and oppression. That is, until now — Trump and the generals know the lessons of history and are trying to drive the globalists out of government positions. They are trying to use the mechanisms the left intended for themselves. They are quite likely to put regulatory restraints on the social media services to protect the majority who aren’t leftist.

I want you to expect a Republican landslide next month in the midterm elections. By no means would I pretend to know how specific races will turn out, but I believe God plans to ensure Trump doesn’t face a hostile Congress for the balance of this term. All the noise you hear to the contrary was the same stuff we heard before Trump was elected, and what brought him victory two years ago will happen again this time. He is God’s scourge and the Lord always gets what He wants.

Teachings of Jesus — Matthew 23:34-39

Jesus had just finished telling off the Scribes and Pharisees for their pious lie that they would not have abused the prophets God had sent to Israel in the past. He pointed out that, if anything, they were worse.

So He promised and prophesied that He would send prophets, sages and men to write Scripture. In saying so, He was indicating He was the Messiah, the Son of God. Like their ancestors, the rabbis would surely kill and crucify them, just as they would the Messiah. His ambassadors would be whipped and chased from town to town, wherever Jews had synagogues.

In this way, the current nation of Israel would exhaust the patience of God under the Covenant of Moses. This would all be part of their final rejection of that covenant. In the record of Israel’s history, they would distinguish themselves by far as the most obstreperous generation of all, spilling more innocent blood than ever before. Jesus cites the long sad history from the murder of Abel just outside the Garden of Eden, all the way to the murder of Zechariah the priest around 800 BC. The latter event was a time when several prophets, including Joel, came to warn King Joash over his allowing the kingdom to slip into idolatry. Zechariah was stoned to death while preaching during a Sabbath worship service in the Temple.

Jesus told them that their response to His message was no less murderous, the kind of in-your-face defiance and provocation of God that would justify the nation’s doom. They would bear the guilt of all their ancestral sins, as well.

We can envision Jesus now turning to face the Temple and crying out. This is the single most recognizable landmark as you approached Jerusalem from any direction. It stood as the symbol of everything that gave the Jewish nation their identity. This is the city that slaughtered the messengers of God. Several times Jesus tried to establish Himself as the Savior, the One who would bring life and redemption to future generations. However, it was the current leadership begging damnation on themselves and all their descendants.

So God would grant their demand. Their dominion and authority under the Covenant would be vacated; their fine Temple and city would be turned into a wasteland. The place would be a burned ruin, symbolizing that the entire future of the nation was forfeited.

Most people miss the point of this last verse here. Jesus hearkens back to the Triumphal Entry a few days before. There, the folks who believed in the symbolism of His actions that day shouted out, quoting Psalm 118. That was a Messianic processional psalm, conjuring the image of the Messiah entering His capitol city to sit on His throne. Once the Covenant was vacated at the Cross, there was only one way Jews could ever restore themselves to God’s favor. They would have to turn to Jesus and declare Him Messiah, just the same as that crowd who welcomed Him with palm branches and clothing under the hooves of the donkey He rode.

AI: More of the Wrong Truth

This is Part Two of AI: The Wrong Truth.

You can’t trust AI because you can’t program human existence. We can’t just leave things where they are in this world and insulate ourselves from Western females entirely, guys. There is a redemptive ministry for both the men and women we encounter in life. This is the part you’ll never learn from the Red Pill men on the Internet.

Granted, I need to warn you about how dicey this can be, but if you take no risks, you gain no glory for the Lord. He is your reference point here. If He leads you to reach out to someone, do so. Nobody but you can know when God is going to use you to help someone.

In general, I’m always ready to open and close the same door. Over time, exposing other people to your heart-led presence will change them; that’s the power of the Holy Spirit shining in your life. You should view the status of your relationship with everyone as tentative. What’s going on today? Cultivate a sensitivity to Reality as a person who has control over your circumstances; what you control is your reactions. Reality most certainly will tell you what’s going on, but you’ll need to learn to listen. That’s the heart-led way.

And it’s a journey, so you’ll change, too.

I’m actually not as bitter as the previous post on this topic indicates. But the Bible takes the approach of first warning you sternly early in the game to prevent the kind of damage to your reputation that would destroy your witness. You’ll have to find your own style, your own persona for dealing with this fallen world. However, the issue with reputation is whether God is pleased, not what your fellow humans think of you. Fallen people are seldom aware of the wider audience of Creation, but that’s the meaning behind those Bible references to “favor with God and man.”

Thus, be on your guard until you have some experience in how God works through you. It’s fine to admire the ministry of men who are called to dig right into the mess of our fallen world, but don’t assume that is the model for everyone. There are various categories of spiritual gifts mentioned in the Bible: temperaments, callings, offices and manifestations. For each of these categories we can know what’s listed in the Bible passages that refer to them, but the lists are not necessarily closed. It’s your duty to work this out as you go along; don’t be surprised when it seems the Lord is changing your identity and mission.

So the harsh tone of that previous discussion about men dealing with women in our Western world was not aimed at women, but to put men on guard. Yes, I’ve walked through Hell on this issue, but somehow my witness remains intact (so far as I can tell). I made room for God to handle any number of things I knew I didn’t understand. I’m not happy with how things worked out in every case. I have some scars and there are places where I’ll be more reluctant to open the door than other folks I know. But the door does come open and there are women I know I can help. Whether or not those women change is not the point; it’s a matter of doing the right thing.

Be the shepherd, Brothers. Be the shepherd for those who despise you, who want to manipulate you, and for those who have no idea why they are drawn to you. Lots of women will be confused about what they should and should not offer and take. Keep your boundaries in view. Seek to know your own convictions about when and where to bend, and when something is broken. Chances are quite good that you’ll make some mistakes, but if you do nothing, you’ll always be wrong.

Shine the light you have. Let God draw those He chooses to draw. Expect all of them to test you simply because they don’t know the moral truth. Be ready to close and open the door on the same person multiple terms, and don’t fear the consequences. There will always be consequences, and God will make those into yet more opportunities to shine His glory. Know when things have reached the limits of your calling; there are times God will tell you to lock the door and move on. Don’t be greedy about all the people He brings into your domain. It’s His domain granted to you in the first place.

Addendum: Red Pill guys assume women are more fallen than men. Feminists assume men are more fallen than women. Both are wrong; both are fallen and cursed in different ways.

Political Cyber Warfare

Globalist idolatry is like a really huge beast: It’s not going to die quickly.

I can’t offer a lot of concrete evidence. This is something that has been percolating all day in my soul — the golden age of the Internet is over. The thing I can tell you is that God’s wrath on the globalists is not just a matter of a bunch of politicians and bureaucrats. It’s the same idolatry that infests the whole entertainment industry, as well. Hollywood and a big chunk of New York City is going down. But this isn’t over until several major technology corporations are raked over the coals.

The problem is that it’s going to affect us. Right now, this is still a virtual parish and we rely on the Net for communications to keep our fellowship alive. But most of us use it for a lot of other things. The basic communications will probably continue without too much disruption, but it’s all the other stuff that you should be planning to do without.

That has already begun, as we’ve noted before. More recently: Facebook closed about 800 accounts a couple of days ago, and a bunch of it was just silencing folks who oppose globalism. Firefox browsers started blocking users from a few sites devoted to Q and Trump. Given the scale of things, it’s nothing big just yet, but it’s just getting started. This beast is huge and slow. It’s wounded and dying, but the system of its life is just too big to collapse all at once. So it’s thrashing around and trying to do as much damage as possible. What doesn’t collapse of itself may be denied us, anyway.

You cannot trust Big Tech. Though our parish is currently too small for them to notice, they would hate us if they spotted us. They are our enemies. This is no joke. I caution you to spend some time considering how you will keep doing what you do every day in regards to entertainment and Internet. If any part of Hollywood goes down, there’s no telling how the effect will ripple across just about everything involving gaming, movies, TV and music. The same goes for computer technology, because the two are deeply intertwined. Any service you use that is actually online is subject to disruption and closure. Anything that has to “phone home” to work may suddenly stop working without warning.

Eventually, most of those things people really use will be replaced. A lot of bloggers who were kicked off popular services have already moved to independent hosting. Wealthy folks who were booted off other social media have already begun creating competing services, but that’s a hard path. Most banking and money transfer services are also balking at serving fans of Trump, so it’s difficult for those startup services to receive the money they could make. This thing runs deep into the Internet business community.

This battle is far from over, but the final result is certain. God will crush the globalists. We’ll talk about what comes after that when it gets closer.

AI: The Wrong Truth

Recently Amazon released a report that their AI recruiting bot was sexist. They couldn’t get it to be more gender neutral in its analysis of job applicants. You can find a lot of articles about it, but I’ll tell you that most of them are highly biased and don’t grasp the real issue.

First, you have to understand that men and women are wired differently. Second, you have to understand that our civilization has a very perverted view of what it means to be male and female. Third, you have to understand that computer technology arises from Western Civilization; the existence of computers and AI is the net result of what Westerners tend to think is important.

While the definition of “sexist” is an entirely cultural phenomena, we can say with certainty that AI is sexist because computer technology is sexist. It’s entirely unlikely that the Western feminine psyche would have ever created computer technology or AI in the first place. By the same token, it’s entirely unlikely that the Western masculine psyche would have come up with computers were it not for the influence women have on men.

The reason Amazon’s AI hire bot tilted toward men is because of the fundamental nature of business and computer technology that requires a Western masculine psyche. It’s not that women can’t learn to emulate the male psyche to get things done. When they do, it makes them less feminine. For example: In my military experience, female military leaders were completely lacking in feminine charisma. In other words, it didn’t matter what those military women looked like; once they gained leadership positions, they were completely unappealing to most of the males I knew.

Even more so if they were actually successful, because the most successful female leaders are motherly. They can be quite likable, but that’s as far as it goes. Mothering works, but it’s utility is limited in both military and corporate contexts. There are situations that call for men, and it doesn’t work to put women into those roles.

But in a Western context the whole thing is twisted out of shape, and what could work, and should work, often won’t. Feminism isn’t about equality; it is a superiority movement. Were that not so, it would never have arisen in the West in the first place. Feminism proclaims the notion that women and men should be interchangeable. If that’s the case, then there’s simply no need for men at all, because Western feminists start from the idea that men are morally inferior by definition. So this demand that AI must be gender neutral is a cultural construct, not based on logic.

By logic, based on the assumptions of Western business goals, most women are unsuited for employment. The things they tend to emphasize don’t empress bots, though their resumes may work for the politicized Human Resource bureaucrats. Given that the sheer logic of AI isn’t going to be politically and socially acceptable any time soon, and the environment is currently hostile to men, someone offered a truly excellent outline of how to deal with women in a Western society:

Don’t touch women and never initiate contact with them. Don’t talk to women outside the friends and family circle except to exchange the customary civilities or to do business with them. Don’t express attraction to women. Don’t betray any emotion or vulnerabilities to women. Don’t permit yourself to be put into situations where you are alone with women. Don’t allow your mind to be distracted by a pretty face or a shapely figure. When in doubt, walk away.

This just happens to align quite well with Biblical Law. It assumes a fallen world where most women are seeking any and every advantage, conniving and always ready to trade up from one man to another who can pay for more creature comforts. Meanwhile, they are perfectly willing to cavort with men who are simply interesting, regardless of their financial status. Most Western women are not conscious of their own frame of reference, and would probably deny it when asked.

Men, never get involved with a woman who is blind to biblical truth.
