Apotheosis of Washington


It has been a long time since I have done any blogging. I will have a new congressman because of the redistricting. My pastor recently called to my attention an issue that should have been addressed a long time ago. Here is my letter to petition my congressman about this issue.

Dear Honorable Congressman,

As you know Article I, section 8, clause 17 of the Constitution of the United States gives Congress the power to "...exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District...".  I would like to voice my opinion about the "Apotheosis of Washington" which is painted on the ceiling of the rotunda of the Capitol Building.  It should be painted over.  The fresco depicts pagan Greek gods, which should not be in a Christian nation.  The word "Apotheosis" in the title of the fresco means "ascending and becoming a god".  This is something that George Washington would never have approved of.  Even though he was a great man, it is morally wrong to elevate any human being except Jesus Christ to godhood status or to promote polytheism.  

Thank you for your consideration.

November 3, 2020: Election or Selection?

People are still talking about the 2020 Presidential Election.  Democrats and some Republicans consider that the election is a settled matter.  Many Republicans, however, think that there was significant fraud involved across the nation in the 2020 General Election.

There is an important event scheduled for this weekend, which can be viewed free online. This event addresses the election integrity issue from a conservative perspective and offers evidence that all Americans need to examine.

Who Really Cares Liz?

Despite what U. S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and other radical pro-aborts say,Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPC) do care about women.

Crisis Pregnancy Centers provide both pre-birth and post-birth services. They serve the physical, emotional, and in many cases even the financial and spiritual needs of the pregnant woman. Funded primarily by private, church, and other philanthropic donations, they are the backbone of services to pregnant women in need.

Increased support will be vital for these vulnerable women and families with more children now freed to be born. CPCs, now more than ever, must be supported financially and with increased volunteer participation.  

In stark contrast, it is the abortion industry, which heavily funds (using profits from abortion) the Warren-types in Congress, that only cares about filthy lucre (that’s money for those in Rio Linda). They see the expectant mother as a cash cow and terminating her baby as means to an end - easy money.

Worse yet, by their words and actions the baby-murdering Leftists seem to be encouraging violence and destruction of these praiseworthy, woman-supporting organizations, the CPCs. Expect more rage this summer as Antifa morphs into Abortifa.

Roe V. Wade, An Obituary

Roe V. Wade, 49, of Dallas, Texas died Friday, June 24, 2022, in Washington, D.C. Born on January 22, 1973, he was the son of Perdition. Roe was the illegitimate and unconstitutional son of the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court.

Detractors and supporters either celebrated or grieved his demise. He is survived by relatives including Obergefell V. Hodges and Lawrence V. Texas also illegitimate and unconstitutional products of the U.S. Supreme Court.

He had no children but was responsible for deaths exceeding 63 million unborn human beings in the United States.

There will be no visitation hours. Roe’s remains will be cremated and interned in the annuals of history among the worst human atrocities including the Jewish Holocaust, Cambodian Genocide, Soviet and Chinese Mass Murders.

Death Penalty: Right or Wrong?


Can the death penalty be right and wrong at the same time? Yes, it can.

For the Convicted Criminal

Some people have committed heinous crimes such as premeditated murder or sexually abusing a child. They are criminals. And if there is undisputed evidence of the crime, if they were tried and convicted, they should be rewarded with the ultimate punishment – death. Why should society bear the cost of housing, feeding, clothing, and securing those who robbed the life or innocence of another human being?

Whoever sheds human blood, by man his blood shall be shed, for in the image of God
He made mankind.
~ Genesis 9:6

God instituted the death penalty to protect the innocent.

Furthermore, the death penalty is a deterrent to the person contemplating criminal behavior.

For the Innocent Person

Speaking of the innocent, on the other hand, 60, 70, or more millions of innocent lives have been sentenced to death and executed without having been charged or convicted of any crime, without any trial. They have been sentenced to death for merely being created.

The Irony

Doesn’t our society, our politicians, our citizenry, and even our churches see the irony of being against ending the lives of convicted murderers or child rapists, but who support by ignoring and stay quiet at the slaughter of innocent human beings?

The Solution

Implement the death penalty for the few deserving of death. Abolish abortion for the many that are undeserving of death.

Death Penalty Suspended in Ohio

In the state of Ohio, Governor Mike DeWine has essentially suspended the death penalty while he has “served” as governor the past five plus years

Chris Long of the Ohio Christian Alliance on a recent podcast noted that during Mr. DeWine tenure in Columbus he has approved of zero executions. Here is the stark and telling comparison of the last three Ohio governors regarding the death penalty during their terms in office:

            Ted Strickland (D-OH) - 20

            John Kasich (R-OH) -    18

            Mike DeWine (R-OH) -    0

Because of Mr. DeWine’s stand on the death penalty issue, his irresponsible response to the Chinese Virus Plannedemic, among other issues, hopefully voters will wise up and throw this bum out as soon as the May 2022 primary election!

On Which Side of the Fence Do You Stand?

Compare and Contrast 

There is a growing difference between the two major political parties.   This difference has intensified under the illegitimate Biden Administration, Democratic governors and mayors. Though far from perfect, the Republicans are generally not as bad as Democrats.

The following is a collection of political quips updated and revised for 2022. According to Snopes, “Which Side of the Fence? …originally circulated on the Internet at least as far back as March of 2011 … We don’t know who the original author was…” 

If a Republican doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one.  If a Democrat doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

If a Republican is a vegetarian, she doesn’t eat meat. If a Democrat is a vegetarian, she wants all meat products banned.

If a Republican believes human life begins at fertilization, he wants to see all abortion abolished. A Democrat justifies the killing of the unborn by denying he or she is a unique person in the earliest state of development.

If a Republican is a homosexual, he quietly leads his life. If a Democrat is a homosexual, he demands legislated respect, rights, and special privileges.

If a Republican is down-and-out, she thinks about how to better her situation.  If a Democrat is down-and-out, she wonders who is going to take care of her. 

If a Republican doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels.  A Democrat demands that those they don’t like to be shut down.

If a Republican sends his children to a public school, he expects his kids to learn how to think, to read, to write, and do arithmetic. If a Democrats sends his children to public school, he accepts his kids learning what to think, namely Marxist ideology, Critical Race Theory (CRT), the Lesbian, Homosexual, Bisexual, and Transgender (LHBT) agenda, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), and Comprehensive Sex Ed (CSE).

If a Republican doesn’t like the climate she is living in, she moves. If a Democrat doesn’t like the climate she is living in, she blames global warming or global cooling, whichever is in vogue at the time.

If a Republican is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church. A Democrat non-believer wants any mention of God and religion banned.

If a Republican decides she needs healthcare, she goes about shopping for it. If a Democrat decides she needs healthcare, she demands that the rest of us pay for hers.

If a Republican reads this, he’ll blog it and/or post it on social media so all can have a good laugh.  A Democrat will delete it or ignore it because he’s “bewildered because the truth is out, and he still doesn’t get it.”

Mansfield was Chosen


Premiere

The location of the world premiere of the faith-based movie Chosen (2021) was not California’s Hollywood last Saturday evening (11/13/2021), but Mansfield, Ohio. Crossroad Church on Park Avenue West hosted the event. The movie’s producer, several cast members and a large crowd were present for the first showing of Chosen. The crowd was very well dressed, there was even a sprinkling of formal evening gowns and tuxedos.

Producer

Jason Campbell, president of JCFilms, which produced the film, made some introductory remarks at the premier. Camp bell indicated that Chosen was one of 40 faith-based and family films his company has made. His desire in making these films “to change the culture for good.” He also indicated that another film was in the works and to be soon completed called Duplicate Divinity, which is also being filmed in Mansfield.

Production

Chosen was shot in Mansfield and even included several members of Crossroad’s staff, who were part of the cast, including the Lead Pastor Dave Vance and the Worship Arts Pastor Ernesto Alcantara. The movie stars Dean CainKevin Sorbo, Heather Habura, and Eddie McClintock and will be released Fall of 2021. The film deals with adoption and foster care, which is a growing concern in America.

Plot

The movie is a multi-plot movie which follows the lives of several children, families and situations all involving either adoption of fostering of children. It is simultaneously entertaining, inspiring, and educational. One moment you are laughing and the next you become tearful. It is heartwarming and heart wrenching. Family is a theme and boy, does our society need to hear that today! Unfortunately, many kids are passed from home to home in the foster care system, some never really find their forever family.

Purpose

Chosen should empower and motivate people of faith, especially, increasing awareness, advocacy, and involvement of the plight of children in need of adoption and/or fostering. In Ohio nearly 16,000 children are being cared for in foster care every day. And that number is expected to increase as the number of foster parents declines. There has also been an increase in teen suicides.

Chosen highlights the beauty and potential of adoption and foster parenting, but it also shows challenges that many adoptive and foster parents face. The movie depicts how communities and people of faith can come together to help overcome these many challenges. In the movie Child Protective Services (CPS) is positively portrayed, which is far from reality, but it does show how CPS should operate ideally. There are a great many problems within the foster care system today – child trafficking, abuse, and exploitation. However, God-empowered Christians and churches can take back some of the spiritual ground that has been lost. Matthew 25:35 challenges us all, “For I was hungry, and you gave Me food; I was thirsty, and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and you took Me in;”

The JCFilm’s website states that more than making a film for entertainment, the company’s goal is to leave a lasting effect on the lives of those involved in adoption and foster parenting in Ohio and around the world. Campbell is quoted as saying, "We don't just want to make a film. We want to make a film that will change and benefit the lives of children… This is more than just a film; it is a movement to empower people of faith to get involved.”  Campbell has called the movie “a blueprint for what churches and communities can do to help” improve adoption and fostering of children.

“Realistically, not everyone can be a foster or adoptive parent, we get that. But everyone can give a helping hand,” Campbell remarked. “Thus, we are creating Ohio Helping Hands to follow the blueprints echoed in the film to help people find ways to support foster and adoptive families. Simply put, Ohio Helping Hands will provide parents and children in foster care or adoption situations with programs that promote safety, permanency, and community.”

Promotion

Watch for Chosen to come to a theater near you later this fall and buy a ticket to the movie, and/or buy the DVD. Visit the website, https://OhioHelpingHands.org, and see what the Lord would have you do.

Show Me the Father (2021)


There is a great movie playing locally at the Cinemark 14 in Mansfield, Ohio and around the nation right now.
  I watched “Show Me the Father” at the Saturday afternoon matinee.  Sadly, I was one of only five people viewing this important, insightful, and inspiring documentary about fatherhood at this showing.  Many more people need to see this movie, especially our lawmakers, judges, civic, faith, and school leaders.  Fathers are critical to family leadership and childrearing.

“Show Me the Father” is comprised of a compelling combination of several renowned sports figures (such as former star Ohio State running back Eddie George), a church leader (Pastor Tony Evans), and a powerful personal gripping testimony of a leader of a famous Christian organization (Jim Daly of Focus on the Family) as well of movie-makers (the Kendrick brothers who made “Courageous”, “War Room,” etc.)  All the participants in this documentary shared key ideas about what it means to be a father, and what it takes to be a father.

There are several surprise and shocking revelations in this movie. 

The point of the movies comes down to the fact that even though our biological fathers may be absent physically or emotionally from our lives, we have a heavenly Father who still loves and leads us in Jesus.

This movie offers an antidote to the epidemic of fatherlessness that is present in America today.  If we apply the principles and ideas revealed in this movie we would be much better off within individual families, in the entire American society, and in the world.

I highly recommend this movie to everyone who is, or who will be, or who has/had a father.  This movie is geared more to young adults and adults.

No Vaccine Passports in Ohio

There is a bill currently in the Ohio House of Representatives (HB 248) which will have its final hearing this Tuesday, June 29, 2021.  The House Health Committee is accepting pro and con testimony with a submission deadline of Sunday, June 27.

The following is what I submitted as written testimony today.


House Bill 248 Ohio House Health Committee

Proponent Testimony June 25, 2021

Chairman Lipps, Vice Chair Holmes, Ranking Member Russo, and Members of the House Health Committee, thank you for the opportunity to provide proponent testimony on Substitute House Bill 248.

I fit in the 65+ category of Ohio citizens and may have experienced the COVID-19 virus myself earlier this year with having several of the symptoms associated with the virus including loss of taste, extreme weakness, and a fever. I never got a COVID-19 test. My physician did order me Vitamin D3. I also began taking Vitamin C, Zinc and Magnesium.  I completely recovered after a week or so confining myself to bed. I now continue this regimen of supplements as a preventive measure.

Why has the government, state and federal, not encouraged other measures, preventatives, or treatments like hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, and proven supplements beside exclusively and vehemently pushing as the final solution, an experimental, unproven “vaccine”?

I passionately believe that this so-called pandemic (or panicdemic) was a government overreaction and overreach.  The masking mandate, the lingering lockdowns, and the potentially virulent “vaccine” were unnecessary for most Ohioans.  You do not quarantine well persons; you quarantine the sick! Unfortunately, the cure was worse than the disease. There were many unintended, needless consequences such as, small business failure, job loss, increased mental illness, etc.

What is also especially egregious was Gov. DeWine’s arbitrary postponing the Primary Election of 2020 at the last minute with no input from our elected representatives. I was scheduled to work the election polls that day and prepared to spend the day there.  This was detrimental to several primary candidates, who worked hard up to the last minute with their campaigns only to have it aborted and moved several months later causing loss of momentum and additional expense. This had a detrimental effect on their election chances, favoring incumbents and disadvantaging their opponents.

Even more disconcerting is masking and intending to inoculate children under 18 and young adults. Why?  They are the least susceptible to COVID-19. But they are being encouraged to be inoculated. The long-term effect on human beings is unclear. But to subject our precious children to this experimental treatment makes no sense.

Americans are an independent people. Government is not the infallible God. The people must have a CHOICE in the medical treatment they receive. This COVID “vaccine” or injection is a medical treatment. There is no reason, including those mentioned above, that citizens of Ohio should be mandated to obtain any vaccine or any medical treatment as a requirement to work, to transact business, to buy or sell, or to travel.

… I wholeheartedly urge you to move this bill out of the Health Committee and on to the full House for a vote as soon as possible.

 

Ohio Advocates for Medical Freedom urges interested parties to present proponent testimony before the end of the day tomorrow (6/27/2021) because the Ohio House Bill 248 will have its final hearing on Tuesday, June 29th. See the link below for recommendations and instructions:

Subjugate the People Act (HR1 and S1)

The so-called and deceptively named “Free the People” Act (U.S. House Bill HR1 and U.S. Senate Bill S1) is really, according to U. S. Senator Ted Cruz, the “Corrupt Politicians” Act.

This bill legalizes voter and election fraud (such as that seen in past elections, especially in the November 3, 2020 election.)

This bill is being voted on this week.  In order to push this bill and other radical bill the Democrats may seek to end the filibuster rule.  The filibuster requires any bill must have 60 votes in the Senate to pass. Eliminating the filibuster allows a bill to pass with a simple majority (51 votes).

Call U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) at 202-224-3954

Call U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) 202-224-4521

In Ohio also contact Rob Portman (R-OH) 202-224-3353 to do everything possible to stop passage of this bill and the elimination of the filibuster.

Some of the corrupt features in this bill include:

(1)    Automatic voter registration. Individuals are automatically registered when they have any interaction with the government such as (obtaining welfare, drivers license, etc)

(2)    Prevents the states from purging voter rolls (of deceased persons or person who have moved.)

(3)    Mandates that felons be allowed to vote (including rapist, child molesters, etc.)

(4)    Strikes down state election integrity laws (such as voter identification requirements).

(5)    Allows ballot harvesting (mass collection of ballots of unrelated people) by paid political operatives and others.

TRANS FORMATION



AOC PLAINLY DOES NOT SEE

 

Stop your propaganda and science/biology denial, Rep. Cortez.


Gender dysphoric children are mentally ill, confused, deluded, disoriented, misguided, uninformed, troubled, in denial of who they are, in need of serious counseling and direction to bring them back to reality.  Any adult - parent, teacher, doctor, politician, or counselor - who reinforces this nonsense is guilty of child abuse.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


gender dysphoria

NOUN
medicine
  1. the condition of feeling one's emotional and psychological identity as male or female to be opposite to one's biological sex.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


You do these troubled children and this nation a disservice by perpetuating this "transgender" myth (lie). 


Refusing to deal with their mental/emotional sickness does not bode well for their future. Suicide is not driven by bullying or rejection of them as persons but by their inability to cope with something that they are not (pretending, fantasizing that they are the opposite sex/gender from which they were born.) 


Let me remind you, Rep. Cortez and your "trans" allies, that there are only two sexes (man and woman) and two genders (male and female.)  This is basic science,  basic biology, and confirmed biblical.  God does not make mistakes.  He designed human beings to be heterosexual.  To think or  to act (behave) otherwise is to  reject God's perfect plan. 


You are not God, stop shaping mankind into an "improved" image.

Marks of Marxism on America



In an article, "Bloody century, compliments of Marxism," by Ed Vitagliano in the AFA Journal (Jan./Feb. 2021) is a quote by C. Bradley Thompson.  Thompson said in a 2012 speech, “Nothing in the long span of human history comes close to the tyranny, terror, and mass genocide caused by Marxism in power – nothing.”

Later in the article Vitagliano writes that Thompson identified how the Marxists/communists advanced their revolutionary ambitions, in other words, the communist’s dirty laundry list of weapons or tactics used:

·                “Collectivism,

·                One-party rule,

·                Man-made famine,

·                Secret police,

·                Arrests,

·                Propaganda,

·                Censorship,

·                Ethnic cleansing,

·                Purges,

·                Show trials,

·                Reeducation camps,

·                Gulags,

·                Firing squads, and

·                Killing fields,

-  All of these defined life under communism.”

So, let’s look at this list and see if it parallels what we are seeing in America today, especially since the January 20th inauguration of the illegitimate President Joe Biden.

Collectivism

The rejection of individual freedom and liberty in favor of the group.  Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines collectivism as, “a political or economic theory advocating collective control especially over production and distribution...” Biden’s Executive Orders that:

n    Directs the attorney general not to renew federal contracts with private prisons.

n    Cancels the Keystone XL pipeline and directs agencies to review and reverse more than 100 Trump actions on the environment. [This would deal a severe blow to the energy industry.]

One-party rule

Prior to the election Democrats said that if they gained control of the U.S. House and Senate, they would seek to make Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico states giving the Democrats 4 new Senators assuring one-party rule. They also talked about eliminating the filibuster allowing to enact laws with only 51 Senator votes and not 2/3 of the Senate concurrence would be needed to enact their agenda items. Throw in open borders, increased in illegal immigration, amnesty, continued voter and election fraud and you have the makings of a permanent one-party tyranny.

Secret police (the Deep State)

There is great suspicion that the CIA, FBI and NSA are all Deep State players working against the national interests of America and working for globalist interests instead. The following Biden E.O.s demonstrate Deep State control using our compromised law enforcement and other governmental agencies:

n    Elevates climate change as an essential element of US foreign policy and national security and kicks off development of a new emissions reduction target, which will be announced by April 22

n    A presidential directive to restore America’sD leadership, support the international
pandemic response effort, promote resilience for future threats and advance global health security and the Global Health Security Agenda

n    Stops the United States’ withdrawal from the World Health Organization, with Dr. Anthony Fauci becoming the head of the delegation to the WHO

n    Rejoins the Paris climate accord, a process that will take 30 days

Arrests

The FBI has virtually ignored the violence and criminal behavior of BLM and Antifa the past year including recently in Oregon and Washington and has wholeheartedly un-proportionately targeting the few hundred protestors (“rioters,” “insurgents”) on January 6th. They, the Administration and the Democrats in Congress, in conjunction with the mainstream media and the social media oligarchs have attempted to label the hundreds of thousands of peaceful persons in D.C. to air their grievances and support the President – as well as any supporter or voter of President Trump – as domestic terrorists.

Propaganda

Much of what we get from the mainstream media is biased and is very much slanted Leftward. Political correctness, anti-Conservative, anti-Christian, anti-Life and pro-sexual deficiency are all dominant themes.

Censorship

As seen recently with the banning of a sitting President and conservative, Christian, and conservative voices by social media oligarchs. Social media has taken advantage of its privilege of being treated neutral platforms, while acting like Pravda, immune from lawsuits. See this article, “How social media censorship ‘silences’ conservative thoughts.”

Ethnic cleansing

While the Leftists, Democrats and their sycophants in the media tout, condone, and otherwise wholeheartedly support radical domestic terrorist organizations such as Antifa and Black Lives Matter, they approve of the overwhelming genocide of black babies. We will see future Biden E.O.s that expand abortion.  One of Biden’s E.O.s reflects this, which:

n    Rescinds the “Mexico City Policy,” a ban on US government funding for foreign nonprofits that perform or promote abortions

Purges

Some in Congress are calling for the removal of anyone who has a differing opinion of that of the Leftists in power. Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz should be kicked out of the Senate for their support of President Trump and their gall of calling for investigations of the unfair and unfree 2020 Election. Hawley and Cruz are not the only ones. Really any strong supporter of President Trump or anyone who dares question the validity of the 2020 Election is a ripe target for the cancel culture. See the article, Democrat Senator “Manchin: Removing Hawley, Cruz with 14th Amendment 'should be a consideration

Show trials

The two impeachments are political, period. They are unsubstantiated. They are nothing more than political theater with the purpose to damage, silence, and minimize Mr. Trump’s future political ambition and his influence on his loyal base.

Re-education camps

Some on the Left have even called for the need to send President Trump supporters and their children to reeducation centers to de-program them and to follow the party line. See the article, “Leftist suggest re-education camps, firing squads, banning talk radio to deprogram 75 million Trump Supporters.”

Conclusion

Regrettably, America is headed in a wrong direction. Many now in government have more in common with globalists and Marxists than they do with patriotic Americans.

One of the first things We the People need to do is to demand election reform to prevent another unfair and unfree election. Second, we must be diligent in purging Congress of those people who no longer represent us.  We need to primary RINOs and replace as many of them and Democrats has possible asap. Hopefully, we will still have a country in 2 or 4 years.
