We went to a range set inside the old Naval magazine area. We put some rounds downrange with a Kel-Tec .40 cal carbine and a .40 cal 1911. After just three magazines. the Kel-Tec’s plastic receiver split clean in half. Good thing it was a rental. Honestly. at that moment I was thinking my old Hi-Point was a better gun — even if it was a total pain in the ass to take apart and clean. After shooting. we cruised around Subic for a while. but the place was surprisingly dead. Normally on a weekend it’s packed with people coming up from Manila. but with gas prices the way they are right now. it felt like a ghost town. We stopped at Lighthouse Marina Resort for lunch and had some outstanding grilled beef kebabs — perfectly rare. tender. and full of flavor. For two people. including beers and sides. the whole meal only came to about S50. Although service was quite slow. It was between lunch and Dinner service and the A team crew was not on duty. We were supposed to meet up with a friend who was participating in a yacht race there. but he ended up being a no-show. After baking in the sun by the pool for an hour. we gave up and headed back to Manila. The drive. which should’ve been quick. turned into a brutal four-hour slog thanks to traffic.

To justify marriage between two individual persons in terms of a [to my mind] exceedingly dubious and opaque comparison with a supposed 'mystical union' between Christ and 'his Church'. This is to 'explain' the simple with the complex. the experiential with abstraction. the clear with the opaque.  I cannot imagine that anybody who was doubtful about the validity or necessity of marriage would be persuaded by this - or would even understand what was meant by it. The analogy merely opens a can of worms rather than explaining anything. After all. what is this supposed mystical union of Christ and Church [which does not feature in the Fourth Gospel]. Exactly who is the MU between - I mean. what counts as 'his' Church. and what is excluded. To be specific. which actual people of which particular Church can confidently be asserted to be parts of this mystical union. And given the gross corruption and dissent of all the Christian churches - who and what self-identified Christian institutions. and which parts of which institutions - ought to be ignored. and in what respects. ...which holy estate Christ adorned and beautified with his presence. and first miracle that he wrought. in Cana of Galilee. This is bizarre. Is it seriously suggested that the institutions of marriage is justified because Jesus attended a wedding. and there performed a miracle. Using such an argument. all sorts of things might be justified. ..and is commended of Saint Paul to be honourable among all men: Commended by St Paul. Well. if at all. only in the most grudging and negative way. Paul regards celibacy as the highest state. and did not allow marriage any positive spiritual value.and therefore is not by any to be enterprised. nor taken in hand. unadvisedly. lightly. or wantonly. to satisfy men's carnal lusts and appetites. like brute beasts that have no understanding. but reverently. discreetly. advisedly. soberly. and in the fear of God. duly considering the causes for which Matrimony was ordained. Prudent advice. and nothing to disagree with here. but it would apply to life in general [e.g. eating and drinking] and any major life decisions [like choosing a job or purchasing a house] - and does not help explain why marriage might be 'a good thing'First. It was ordained for the procreation of children. to be brought up in the fear and nurture of the Lord. and to the praise of his holy Name. The difficulty is that this is first a biological justification merely. and secondly a sociological one - and alternative arrangements for procreation and raising children might be [and indeed are] proposed. Secondly. It was ordained for a remedy against sin. and to avoid fornication. that such persons as have not the gift of continency might marry. and keep themselves undefiled members of Christ's body. See above. This is an appalling non-justification - and contains the assumption that the avoiding sin [double negative theology] ought to be our primary motivations. If this were true - ultimately. it were better not to have been born. or to die before having the chance to sin.   Thirdly. It was ordained for the mutual society. help. and comfort. that the one ought to have of the other. both in prosperity and adversity.Unobjectionable. so far as it goes. but nothing spiritual about it - merely a matter of expediency. nothing to do with salvation or theosis. I regard such feeble advocacy and rationalization of marriage as a symptom of very deep and widespread spiritual problems. This represents a pitiful and significant inability to explain or advocate a thing that has been so obviously. to for so many people. as one of the most wonderfully positive and desirable things in human existence. It strikes me as evidence of a grossly inadequate theology that [even] rigorous and honest traditional Christian churches at their best have failed so badly to make explicit the spiritual value and desirability of something that has often been directly experienced and known.   Sun, 12 Apr 2026 19:35:00 +0000 eab23a908de0b3572afdeffd61b34983970bb2c6 https://www.westernjournal.com/david-blackmon-drill-baby-drill-makes-modest-comeback/ Oklahoma-based Continental Resources made news this week by announcing it will increase its drilling and production capital budget in response to the new higher oil price environment that has evolved (…) The post Blackmon: Drill.

Minnesota. is a small city about an hour’s drive from Minneapolis. On paper it should have the smaller crime rate of the alphabetically similar Farmington which is nearly the same size and only a half hour away. Instead. Faribault has more than twice as much violent crime. aggravated assaults. burglaries and car thefts. 30% more rapes. and 8 times as many robberies. Farmington has no arsons. but Faribault has the most arsons of any city outside major strongholds like Minneapolis. St. Paul or Duluth.But Faribault has something Farmington doesn’t: diversity. Especially from its Somalis.The city of over 20.000 used to be much less diverse. In 1990. it was even 98% white. Or as the Minnesota Post described it. with a shudder. “an almost entirely homogeneous white community. not much different from many towns across Minnesota.” But Faribault was an hour away from Minneapolis at a time when it was being overtaken by Somali mass migration. and it had a meat processing plant. now partly shut down. which is always a draw for illegal aliens and migrants.Now Faribault is much more diverse and it has problems that it didn’t used to have.Faribault was the epicenter of a S2.6 million Somali Medicaid ride fraud scam in which 8 Somalis. two of them named Mohammed. stole hundreds of names to bill taxpayers for rides. interpreters and acupuncture services that never happened.It was also part of the S250 million Somali meal scam that first broke open Somali fraud.Faribault’s part in the massive fraud in which nonprofits claimed to be providing free meals to hundreds of thousands of Somali kids who didn’t exist came through the Somali American Faribault Education [SAFE] run by Mohamed Hussein and Lul Bashir Ali. who made off with S5 million in meal funds after claiming that their restaurant in Faribault. which only had 9 tables. was serving meals to 1.600 children a day and had served a total of 700.000 meals.The Somali American Faribault Education [SAFE] nonprofit also claimed to be providing meals to 2.500 children a day. Sizable amounts of kickbacks were paid to a man who then fled to Somalia. The Minnesota Post’s article praising the Somali takeover of Faribault had hailed SAFE. claiming that it “provides refugees with ESL programs and connects them to jobs”.The other non-profit promoted by the Post article. the ‘Somali Community Resettlement Services’. which operates out of the massive 115-year-old historic Gale Mansion. often used as a wedding venue. has been linked to one Faribault meal site that claimed to be offering 2.000 meals a day.The ‘Somali Community Resettlement Services’ solicited nearly S3 million for the free meals and Somali elected officials had proposed bills that would pour millions into the organization.The fraud also penetrated the Faribault public school system as investigators are also trying to figure out where S1 million in grant money to stop Somali drug abuse solicited by Lul Bashir Ali. initially identified only as a Somali mother. went.“‘We need help.’ This sentiment. expressed by a Somali mother about the specific concern of youth drug use and the more general frustration of trying to parent in a new culture. captures the heart of this grant proposal.” The Minnesota Department of Human Services responded with nearly S1 million for the Faribault schools that was supposedly used to provide Somali services.Faribault is much more diverse now with an estimated 4.600 Somalis out of 25.000 people. The white population has dropped to 65% and the school system is even more diverse.Minority enrollment in the city’s schools was up 243% in twenty years. By 2018. minority students made up a majority of the school system. Today. 60% of the school district is minority and only 36% white. A population of older white homeowners is subsidizing education and services for Somali and South American migrant meatpacking plant workers with their property taxes.The Faribault School Board has recently been debating teaching science. health and social studies in Somali. As of 2022. there were over 900 Faribault students who didn’t speak English.The Somali education program was proposed after complaints from Somalis and other migrants that their “home languages were being lost as students became more English-dominant” and “parents and children no longer shared a common language. weakening communication and cultural connections within families.” Rather than expecting their parents to learn English. Faribault schools are expected to prevent their children from learning English. instead teaching them in Somali.Faribault might as well teach the students in Somali because state test proficiency scores showed that math proficiency was at 13.7%. science was at 16.1% and reading was at 29.8%. Test scores. graduation rates. attendance and every possible metric are below state standards.What would Faribault be like if it were less diverse and Somali. Faribault school statistics show that students for whom English is their native language perform over three times better on math. science and more than twice as well on reading. Students who aren’t on welfare perform four times as well on math and science. Call it the ‘Somali Effect’.Faribault is more diverse. it’s also more dangerous and has linked up with the epicenter of Somali fraud in the Twin Cities. Its schools are failing and it has no future.[Image above from Hormel meatpacking plant video showcasing its Somali workers.]Daniel Greenfield is a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center.

This is not an outside accusation. Albert Pike. Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite and author of Morals and Dogma. the most authoritative text in American Freemasonry. wrote it himself: 'Masonry is a search after Light. That search leads us directly back. as you see. to the Kabalah.' He also wrote: 'The Kabalah is the key of the occult sciences.' and 'all the Masonic associations owe their secrets and symbols to it.'Sanhedrin 59a records Rabbi Yochanan's ruling that a Gentile who studies Jewish teaching is liable for the death penalty. Makow- Judaism. defined by cabalism. is a satanic cult masquerading as a religion.

Sun, 12 Apr 2026 14:41:04 +0000 97841e0fd1e0f0075eeea6ca90948fbd9029c770 https://narrowdesert.blogspot.com/2026/04/was-i-not-gil-vas.html I dreamt that I had been out hiking in the woods with some family members and was just coming back to the cabin we were staying in. My wife asked how the hike had gone. and I said it was good and that I'd discovered some new trails. She was very interested to hear this and wanted to see photos. I said I didn't think I'd taken any photos. but I took out my phone to check. All I could find were photos of trails she already knew.I also found some videos I had made in which I was playing with a big bull elephant. getting it to charge me and running away. It reminded me of a game called Runs-for-Its that I had played as a child. which involved climbing into the neighbor's sheepfold and then trying to run to the other side without being butted by the ram. Watching the video. I reflected that a bull elephant is a lot faster and more dangerous than a sheep and that my game had been a very stupid one.Everyone was at the cabin now. and they were all preparing to leave. I said. 'Wait. are we leaving now without going back into the woods. Because I left my shoes out there.' I had to go back into the woods to get my shoes. and a few people went with me.I had left my shoes down in a river valley. The terrain was a mixture of Hell Hollow in Ohio. Liberty Circle in Derry. New Hampshire. and a ravine where I sometimes hike in Taiwan. As I approached the valley. I found that it had all been dug up and was now a gigantic stone quarry with very steep sides. making it impossible to climb down to the bottom.I was outraged that someone had done this. and I declaimed rather theatrically. 'Was I not Gil Vas. Did I not play here.' I thought of the name as being Russian. spelled Гил Вас. I think I had some idea that Gil Vas was one of a pair of people whose initials were ГВ. but I can't remember the other name.⁂In another episode in the dream. I saw a large black animal in a tree. I thought at first that it was a spider monkey but then realized that it was an enormous fruit bat. almost as big as a man. I drew everyone's attention to it.Later. we found that we were sharing the cabin with some fruit bats. too. These were also very large and had evolved to look very similar to human beings. They walked upright and wore their wings folded around them like cloaks. Some of them could almost pass for human. but what gave them away was the fact that the skin on their foreheads was unusually tight and smooth. Although everyone was clear that these were fruit bats and thus not predatory or dangerous. we still didn't really trust them and thought it best to keep children away from them. Something about them reminded me of the Zimwi in the the children's book Bimwili and the Zimwi. though I'm not sure what. They weren't green or wrinkly or anything. I think it was just that they were not-quite-human and thus seemed vaguely menacing. [That book terrified me as a child.]By the way. I had completely forgotten the fruit-bat part of the dream until late this afternoon. when I happened to pass a Japanese ramen restaurant. This made me reflect that when I was growing up ramen was synonymous with cheap instant noodles. and the idea of a ramen restaurant would have struck me as ridiculous. With the noodles-in-childhood theme established. my train of thought then went to fact that we used to think it was funny to call noodles noofles. That random consonant substitution made me think of the Monty Python sketch where a man can't pronounce the letter c and always replaces it with b. He says it's because he was once bitten by a bat. 'You mean by a cat.' 'No. a bat.' And then the bat dream came pouring back into conscious memory.I assume that Gil Vas was influenced by my recent sync post about 'Picaresque narrative.' since The Adventures of Gil Blas of Santillane is generally considered to be the granddaddy of that particular genre. [Gil Blas was not mentioned in the article that occasioned the sync. but I'm sure I had that title filed away in my memory somewhere.] Sun, 12 Apr 2026 14:40:00 +0000 e2a32f776620ff33e57941861fdba64f60e16a29 https://hellboundanddown.com/2026/04/12/coast-guard-confiscates-over-33-million-of-cocaine-in-major-bust/ The U.S. Coast Guard has made a drug bust valued at more than S33 million as part of an interdiction effort launched by the Trump administration last year.

None of them had ever fallen off the wall until a couple of days ago. when I found that two of them had fallen: R and V.This made me think of a song from a dream I had when I was 12 or 13. which I recorded in 'Sometimes a banana is just a banana -- right.':R-V.Remember the other word: dea-con.Indestructible workerLet him without stone cast the first cigaretteIn the dream. I understood the letters RV to stand for preparation worker [dream logic for you] and to be a synonym for deacon.Yesterday I read this in The Story of Alice:(Lewis Carroll's) passport was kept separately in a black leather wallet with 'REVD. CHARLES L. DODGSON' stamped on it in crisp gilt letters. just in case there was any doubt over where a document made out to 'The Reverend Charles L. Dodgson' belonged.I was somewhat surprised to see the clerical honorific used -- even on his passport. -- since I knew that Carroll had chosen not to become a priest. even though he was required to do so by the rules of his college. He had been ordained deacon. though. and it turns out that in the Church of England even a deacon is entitled to the clerical style The Reverend. So finally. all these years later. a somewhat intelligible connection between RV and deacon. That 'him without stone' line also syncs with my recent 'no balls' post.⁂Another thing that is mentioned in The Story of Alice is Carroll's predilection for thimbles:He remained especially fond of objects such as thimbles. which frequently rose to the surface of his writing even when its real subject was something else entirely. Typically. The Hunting of the Snark includes an account of the Snark-hunters going forth 'To seek it with thimbles' . . . while in 1890 he wrote to Queen Victoria's granddaughter Princess Alice promising her a golden armchair . . . 'made so that you can fold it up small. and put it in a thimble. and carry it about in your pocket.'One is not surprised to find thimbles in a book about Lewis Carroll. but today I unexpectedly found one in another book I am reading: Words of Them Liberated. Quite near the end of this extremely strange book [which I have almost finished]. we read that 'Eru' -- yes. the God of Tolkien's Legendarium -- 'left them a token of his warning. a thimble.' and this thimble is mentioned several more times in the pages that follow.I am currently reading only two books [not counting scripture]. and they are about as different as two books could be. One is a polished. well-written biography of a Victorian children's writer by an Oxford professor of English literature and mentions thimbles 12 times. The other is a barely intelligible congeries of channeled Tolkienian material by an anthropologist who usually writes about the Book of Mormon. and it mentions thimbles eight times.I suppose it goes without saying that the overwhelming majority of the books I read do not mention thimbles at all. Nor have I ever had occasion to mention them on this blog until just now.In Liberated. the thimble is made to be incongruously momentous. It comes from God himself. and later we read of a character 'admiring only his thimble.' This is paralleled by Carroll's first literary use of the thimble. in Alice:Then they all crowded round her once more. while the Dodo solemnly presented the thimble. saying 'We beg your acceptance of this elegant thimble.' and. when it had finished this short speech. they all cheered.Alice thought the whole thing very absurd. but they all looked so grave that she did not dare to laugh. and. as she could not think of anything to say. she simply bowed. and took the thimble. looking as solemn as she could.

In 2022 it had the population of 25. 698 people. What you see is typical for 404 today. And the guys who drive by talk about that MIAs are not even included. This is just one of the indicators of a catastrophe in 404 and VSU. which also is underscored [it is a very strong correlation] with the latest exchange of bodies between 404 and Russia. 1.000 VSU bodies vs 41 of Russian soldiers. 1.000/41 = 24. So. this time it is 1 Russian for 24 VSU. If you calculate even from this POV [which is incomplete--tactical and operational rear losses of VSU are horrendous]. then taking this metric in consideration and base number of VSU KIAs+MIAs of 2.5 million. you can roughly calculate Russia's KIAs: 2. 500. 000/25 = 100. 000 give and take of Russian personnel. That is why not a single ass-hole from BBC or CNN can find anything even remotely similar to 404 cemeteries and towns like Gaisin in Russia. Some inputs from frontlines by senior commanders [not by some info shysters with no military background] describe very similar picture in terms of ratios. Note. just in this statistics the ratio is 16.480/464 = 36.  That means 1 body of Russian soldier for 36 VSU. Now you understand why West [headed by the US] is a war criminal. including its generals and intel people who 'planned this'.  Sat, 11 Apr 2026 19:35:00 +0000 534957486acd9fb2932acc8c72d6e1dc257f1d81 https://delarroz.com/2026/04/11/netflix-lost-the-rights-to-this-fantasy-series-and-thats-a-good-thing/ Sat, 11 Apr 2026 18:53:04 +0000 9f8dfd943909393be40e5e0f0c0e145f6617f66f https://modernity.news/2026/04/11/yet-more-proof-the-uk-government-are-complete-clowns/ Ruling elites obsess over fictional family fantasies The post Yet MORE Proof The UK Government Are Complete Clowns… first appeared on modernity.

'Huge Mouth. No Balls: Trump Keeps Being Played Like A Fiddle.' which is about the situation in Persia and begins thus:President Trump. 2026.I really wonder what has happened to the guy. Generally so smart. . . .From Transformed Wife: 'She Opens Her Mouth with Wisdom – Proverbs 31:26.' being a commentary on that Bible verse.The two posts have nothing at all in common content-wise. but there are several coincidental parallels. The feminine pronoun indicates that the Proverbs verse is about someone with 'no balls.' 'Wisdom' is akin to being 'so smart.' Both posts. one in its title and the other in its first line. feature four digits of which the last two are 26.The Mundabor post includes a picture of a violin. helping the reader visualize exactly what instrument Trump is being played like. and the post emphasizes that the Persian violinists 'will lie to him every step of the way.' My last post. 'Random things seen in a shop.' shows a picture of a violin next to a word that looks like Lie.Wisdom without balls makes me think of the castrated philosopher Abelard. whose name has come up in syncs before.

Then I noticed that it really looks as if it said 'Delicious Cookies and Lies.'I know it's supposed to be a P. but that font really makes it look like an L. Cookies and lies. I associate lying with a different snack food:Yes. this is a real WikiHow.'Chip' is an old sync theme. As is 'pie.' of course.At the same place. I saw this magazine cover:The cover story is 'The largest wealth-transfer wave in Taiwan's history: A massive wave of inheritance is coming.' The relevance of the illustration is rather obscure. It's an hourglass. the upper chamber of which is shaped like Taiwan. and the golden sand in the lower chamber is either falling on or coalescing into a small golden key. The imagery really doesn't make sense -- wealth isn't 'running out' of Taiwan but is being inherited by the next generation -- but it does hit on several sync themes.Finally. there was this sign. advising that starting on August 19. deliveries must be picked up within 7 days instead of within 22 days. which is the current rule. The juxtaposition of 7 and 22 is a bit of a sync. [And why was the limit ever 22 days.

Trump is a Magician. but not as skilled as he appears. I remember having my material posted about Trump as Magician. Iran is his downfall. Like Hitler. Trump collects energy from his crowds and then refines and redirects it back to them. That said. he's nowhere near as great as Hitler was with that important technique.  The Satanic Alpha Lodge teaches energy collection. refinement and redirection of those energies into physical manifestation. It's what Magicians do. But for Hitler as for Trump. when the crowds turn away. their energies are corrupted and fade. This is the major reason why Trump has little time left.  Decades ago. I remember the joy of manipulating crowds with their own energy. It gave me a vivacious high. That stated. you must ensure against getting contaminated and Trump hasn't. He doesn't know how.  With Magick. privilege follows responsibly.   'Henry Kissinger first proposed using fundamentalist Christianity to provoke war. first in the Middle East and then worldwide. Kissinger 'perfected Hitler's 'terror technique'... create tension in a society and then find a scapegoat. The followers of the Dark Path do this... to drive people to more crude and horrible behaviour. 'Alpha Lodge's goal is to achieve a 66% illiteracy rate in the Western world by 2010. and 'the destruction of at least 70% of the world's population by 2030.' Petor Narsagonan And we're on target. Petor's material was published [by me] in 2010. My material has been sporadically published since then. Did anyone harken or believe. According to Grok 4. apparently My Teacher's and my own material is 'Satanic fiction'. Go figure. I am an old man in increasing ill health. awaiting My triumphant enter as a God to Satan's world. From my early adult years. this has been my consummate goal. I will float to Hell on a river of other peoples' tears. Hail Myself that I seek to be. Hail Satan. -- Sat, 11 Apr 2026 14:49:13 +0000 218267f0294f19cb49c947a861b3c84c7f17a55f https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sub1-K7SX2E Sat, 11 Apr 2026 14:47:45 +0000 f9f36c02f8d9dcfec4ac764c24df0a8ecb877a53 https://warroom.org/warroom-battleground-ep-986-angela-merkel-let-in-1m-syrians-and-transformed-europe-spain-set-to-double-that-with-2m-invaders/      We discuss polling. economy. battleground states. and more.

Its purpose was to condemn women who dressed like men. What is of interest to me is the moral framework used. On what grounds did the pamphleteer oppose cross-dressing. Hic Mulier. title page illustrationI have previously written about a similar. companion pamphlet called Haec Vir. In this text. there are three potential reasons for supporting distinctions between men and women:...by the Laws of Nature. by the rules of Religion. and the Customs of all civil Nations. it is necessary there be a distinct and special difference between Man and WomanThere is considerable discussion in Haec Vir about the role of custom and the rules of religion. The focus of Hic Mulier. though. is an appeal to nature. The author considers it unnatural for women to dress as men.Appeals to nature often blend together two differing claims. The first is to suggest that a particular behaviour is wholly outside the given nature of the person carrying it out and is in this sense unnatural [like it would be unnatural for a dog to miaow like a cat]. A modern example might be opposing women in frontline combat roles because the nature of a woman's body is designed around her maternal role rather than being a warrior. and that this has been generally observed in sex roles over the course of human history. This type of argument is not well accepted in liberal modernity. Modern philosophy has mostly rejected the idea of formal and final causes. where something is defined by its essence and its ultimate purpose. And modern philosophy often emphasises the idea that humans should be autonomously self-creating individuals. not defined by the givens of their being.In Hic Mulier we see this kind of appeal to nature when the author argues that women who wear men's clothes are not being true to their own nature but are mimicking men. or putting on a mask or disguise - that it is merely imitation rather than a true representation of who they are and that in doing so they are being 'monstrous' in the sense of becoming a deformed or hybrid creature not found in nature. Examples from the text include the author condemning the 'folly of imitation'. claiming that the cross-dressing women were substituting for modesty 'all Mimic and apish incivility'. labelling them as 'mermonsters' rather than mermaids. and describing cross-dressing as 'barbarous. in that it is exorbitant [wayward] from Nature and an Antithesis to kind'. We see the language of disguise in the following:What can be more barbarous than with the gloss of mumming Art to disguise the beauty of their creations. To mould their bodies to every deformed fashion. their tongues to vile and horrible profanations. and their hands to ruffianly and uncivil actions. To have their gestures as piebald and as motleyvarious as their disguises...Oh yes. a world...so foully branded with this infamy of disguise. The author goes on to suggest that some of the mannish women might have been imitating popular stories of the time in which a woman pretended to be. or was mistaken for. a man. He later returns to the idea that cross-dressing is disguising the women's real natures in the following excerpt [note. a vizard was a strange looking oval mask worn by upper class women when outside to protect their complexions]:The fairest face covered with a foul vizard begets nothing but affright or scorn. and the noblest person in an ignoble disguise attains to nothing but reproach and scandal. Away then with these disguises and foul vizards.So the first approach is the one that sees the act itself as being outside of nature and therefore. in the eyes of the pamphlet writer. an abomination.It's difficult to use this first approach widely. After all. there are things that exist within our own nature. rather than outside of it. that are not morally good. So it's not as straightforward as claiming that something that is natural is therefore to be praised.This is made clear in the pamphlet. The author recognises. and describes in detail. the differences between the higher nature of women and the lower.So a second supplementary approach is needed. This takes the form. in Hic Mulier. of the claim that a woman is more truly herself. more truly in her nature when she acts according to the virtues of her sex. When she falls into her lower nature. into the vices characteristic of her sex. this is a deformity of her nature. It is not how she was truly made to be. How do we know what these virtues and vices are. In part. through the use of reason. If used well. our reason directs us to our nobler qualities. whereas a foolish person would be led to what is base. There is an emphasis in Hic Mulier on the virtue of temperance. A virtuous person will exercise restraint. particularly over appetites and desires. This ability to exercise a degree of rational control over oneself is a true freedom that makes us fit for civility. an absence of temperance. in which we are carried along wildly by our impulses. is both licentious and barbarous. And so there is a moral architecture that includes an appeal to nature. to virtue. to reason. to nobility. to wisdom. to restraint and to civility..Does the moral architecture of Hic Mulier make sense. I think so. In a Christian society. in which our original form is thought to be the image of God. it does make sense to believe that our higher. virtuous nature is the truer one that is natural to us [well-formed] and that the baser. vicious nature is the one that is fallen or de-formed. It fits too perhaps with the Platonic philosophy inherited from the classical world in which the closer you get to the original form. the more perfect a thing is. There might also be an influence here from the concept of the great chain of being in which there is a scale of nature from the lowest to the highest. Humans possess not only an animal like nature [such as physical appetites] but also a spiritual one [including a rational faculty]. Therefore. to be fully within our nature would mean exercising rational control over our appetites - without this we would be reduced to the merely animal aspect of existence.The moral terminology used in Hic Mulier is fitted to the overall architecture. Women are praised and criticised for a variety of reasons. but there is some emphasis. as you might expect. on the contrast between women who exercise restraint and those who do not. Virtuous women are described as modest. chaste. bashful. comely. shamefast and sober [shamefast meant being restrained in a positive sense by a sense of shame or propriety. to be sober meant having self-control. dignity and temperance]. Vicious women. however. are termed wanton. loose. lascivious. shameless. skittish [inconstant. fickle]. indiscreet [reckless. rash] and lustful [having excessive desires. not just sexual. as when we speak of 'lust for power']. This is not the moral framework we commonly use today. This is to be expected as the moral architecture of our times runs almost directly counter to that defended in Hic Mulier. The current view is that we are empowered when. as autonomous individuals. we are free to choose in any direction. The logic of this position is that there should be minimal restraints on what people choose to do. The more traditional emphasis on qualities of self-restraint will seem alien or archaic to those brought up within the modern moral architecture. This is a pity as there is a kind of freedom and dignity in cultivating the virtue of temperance. This virtue helps us to retain our moral integrity. or. more profoundly. it permits us to continue in life as an integrated self. Everything in reality is subject to entropy. If we make no effort to uphold beneficial order either in ourselves or in society. then there will be a falling away toward collapse and disorder. If we exercise no rational control over our passions. desires and appetites. then we inevitably fall into demoralising vices that we are increasingly subject to and which are a source of disempowerment [and will likely leave us jaded and less able to enjoyably experience the passionate side of life].Temperance is. of course. not the only virtue. The entire moral architecture should not be built on this foundation alone. But I do think we can learn something from the way that temperance was once connected to man's higher nature and to highly esteemed traits of character..One positive aspect of this moral architecture is that it avoids the deadlock that occurred in the middle of the twentieth century. Freud had suggested that people did need to exercise restraint in the interests of civilisation. but that in doing so they would be unhappy. They would repress their instinctive drives [sexual and aggressive] which would cause distress or even neurosis. A counterculture led by figures like Wilhelm Reich agreed with Freud that repression would lead to neuroses but concluded that people should be uninhibited in expressing their instinctive drives ['let it all hang out']. Reich took a negative view of civilisation. connecting it to a violent authoritarian opposition to human freedom. The two options here are both unattractive: you get to be either a neurotic and unhappy member of civilised society. or else a spaced out hippy with no moral self-control. The model put forward in the 1620s is more positive. The person who is 'got together' in the sense of being able to moderate their own actions is thought to be more themselves. to have more freedom of self. and to be more fit to participate in a civilised society. These things [nature. freedom. civilised society] are not set against each other as they were in the twentieth century.

Viktor Orban presented the Hungarian Order of Merit to Roger Scruton in London.  Scruton would die five weeks later from lung cancer.In his speech honoring Scruton. Orban praised him for his work in the 1980s aiding the anti-communist underground in Central and Eastern Europe. which included Hungary.  Orban concluded the speech by saying: 'He was and is a loyal friend of the freedom-loving Hungarians. who knows that this freedom relies on nation states and Christian civilization.'To identify Scruton as a supporter of 'Christian civilization' is disturbing to those of us who have argued that Scruton belonged to a Kantian conservative tradition of atheistic religiosity.  Atheistic religiosity is for those who want the 'magic of religious feeling' as an expression of the human mind's 'religious instinct.' but without having to believe in the real existence of God independent of the human mind.  They don't believe in the literal truth of Christianity or any other religion.  And yet they want to have a sense of the sacred that comes from religious emotions. but without the need to believe any religious doctrines.  They believe that God is dead. but they also believe that human beings need to satisfy their religious longings for transcendence and redemption if they are to escape the nihilism that comes from the death of God.I suspect that many. if not most. of the conservatives who promote 'Christian civilization'--including Orban--are really Christian atheists who believe a Christian culture supports the moral and political order of a nation. but without believing in the truth of Christian doctrines.  The flimsiness of this fake Christianity explains why Orban's promotion of Hungary as a Christian nation has failed to stop the decline of Christianity in Hungary.I have been prompted to think more about this while reading Scruton's interpretation of Richard Wagner's Tristan und Isolde in Death Devoted Heart: Sex and the Sacred in Wagner's Tristan and Isolde [Oxford University Press. 2004].  I have been doing this in preparation for attending a concert performed by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra that includes the Prelude and Liebestod from Tristan and Isolde along with Richard Strauss's Four Last Songs.REDEMPTION IN TRISTAN AND ISOLDELet's start with a brief synopsis of the story as Wagner tells it.Set in the Celtic Middle Ages. the opera begins with Tristan. a knight of Cornwall. escorting Isolde. the daughter of the King of Ireland. to Cornwall where she is to marry King Marke. Tristan's uncle.  During the journey. Isolde is filled with rage and resentment towards Tristan for killing her fiancé. Morold. in battle.  Despite her anger. when Tristan stares into her eyes--which is marked musically by Wagner's 'Look' motive--she is drawn to him. and their complex relationship unfolds throughout the opera.Act 1.  Isolde. furious at her fate. wishes for revenge against Tristan.  She recalls how she had speared his life when he was wounded and disguised as Tantris.  As they approach Cornwall. she demands that Tristan drink a cup of atonement with her.  However. Brangane. Isolde's maid. secretly substitutes the poison with a love potion. causing both Tristan and Isolde to fall deeply in love with one another.Act 2.  The love between Tristan and Isolde deepens. but they are caught in a web of duty and betrayal.  Tristan is torn between his loyalty to King Marke and his love for Isolde.  Their secret affair is discovered. leading to a confrontation that highlights the tragic nature of their love.  The act culminates in a passionate duet where they express their longing and despair.Act 3.  The final act sees Tristan wounded in battle and longing for Isolde.  He dies in her arms. and Isolde. overwhelmed by grief. follows him into death.  The opera concludes with Isolde's poignant Liebestod [love-death] where she transcends the physical world. symbolizing the idea that true love can only be fully realized in death.I will pass over the details of Scruton's meticulous interpretation of this opera and jump to his conclusions. Scruton argued that Wagner's agenda as an artist was 'nothing less than the redemption of humankind.' which he accomplished in Tristan and Isolde.  According to Scruton. Wagner saw that the yearning for redemption was a religious yearning. an expression of the religious instinct that is universal to human beings. and that it could be fulfilled only in 'otherworldly renunciation.'  But Wagner 'set out to discover a redemption that needs no god to accomplish it.' because he would 'make man his own redeemer' [3].  He would show 'what redemption could mean. when detached from every promise of a life after death' [14].Wagner himself once described Tristan and Isolde as a story of 'endless yearning. longing. the bliss and wretchedness of love. world. power. fame. honor. chivalry. loyalty. and friendship all blown away like an insubstantial dream. one thing alone left living--longing. longing unquenchable. a yearning. a hunger. a languishing forever renewing itself. one sole redemption--death. surcease. a sleep without awakening' [29].Thus could Wagner's opera stir religious feelings of redemption in his audience without requiring any belief in religious doctrines [like the existence of God and the eternal afterlife].  In this way. Scruton insisted. Wagner proved 'that religion could live again in art and did not need God for its survival.' and 'that man can become holy to himself with no help from the gods' [190. 196].But I would say that at best what Wagner proved is that his operatic art could induce a fake emotion of religious redemption that could not really redeem human beings.  After all. how can human beings be redeemed through 'otherworldly renunciation' if they believe that there is no 'otherworld' beyond this world. THREE POSITIONS ON REDEMPTIONThe fake redemption of atheistic religiosity is only one of at least three possible positions that musical artists can take on redemption.  A second position is the real redemption that can come through a musical composition like Bach's Saint Matthew's Passion or Handel's Messiah. which induce religious emotions of redemption but also teach religious doctrines of redemption by eternal salvation.  The members of the audience who are not Christian believers can feel the power of those religious emotions.  But the Christian believers in the audience can also understand the promise of their redemption because they know that their Redeemer really exists. and He will raise them from the dead to eternal life in Heaven.A third position that a musical artist can take on redemption is that there is no need for redemption from life because life--even with its suffering. vulnerability. and mortality--is inherently good.  And for that reason. we can calmly accept the end of life in death as the completion of our life's journey.  That position is artistically conveyed in Richard Strauss's Four Last Songs.In 1948. Strauss was 84 and composing his last music before his death the next year.  His Four Last Songs were for soprano and orchestra.  He wrote to Kirsten Flagstad to express his wish that she would be the soprano for the world premiere of these songs.  And indeed the premiere occurred in London in 1950. after his death. sung by Flagstad with the Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Wilhelm Furtwangler.  [Remarkably. Flagstad had sang as Isolde at Covenant Garden. London. in 1936.]As he composed this music for a soprano. Strauss probably heard the voice of his wife Pauline de Anha. who had sung as a professional soprano.The lyrics for the four songs are poems.  The first three by Herman Hesse. the fourth by Joseph Eichendorff.In the first. Fruhling ['Spring']. the soprano's voice rises up as she dreams of trees and sky. and the flute evokes birdsong.In the second. 'September.' there is an allegorical passage from life to death.  The first stanza reads:The garden is mourning.the rain sinks coolly into the flowers.Summer shuddersas it meets its end.It ends with Summer closing 'its large eyes grown weary.'In the third song. Beim Schlafengehen ['While going to sleep']. the soprano yearns to forget all thoughts in sleep.  The first stanza reads:Now that the day has made me so tired.my dearest longings shall be accepted kindly by the starry nightlike a weary child.In the final song. Im Abendrot ['In the twilight']. we hear about an old couple at the end of life.  It begins with an orchestral depiction of sunset. with two trilling flutes representing a pair of larks ascending into the sky [the souls of the old couple].  We can imagine that here Strauss was thinking of his long and happy marriage with Pauline de Anha. who would die in 1950 only eight months after his death.  Here in this song. they are contemplating the end of life together.The light fades as the song unfolds. and then the soprano asks. in the last line. Ist dies etwa Tod. ['Is this perhaps death.'] The orchestra then whispers the 'transfiguration' theme from Strauss's Death and Transfiguration. which he had written 60 years before.  Strauss is saying goodbye by wistfully suggesting that he has come full circle from his early life to his end.Although 'transfiguration' might suggest the need for redemption. the tone and meaning of Strauss's Four Last Songs are very different from Wagner's Tristan and Isolde.  Strauss's songs convey not an unquenchable longing for redemption from life [like that of Tristan and Isolde] but a serene completion of life in the old couple's calm acceptance of their inevitable ending of their lives together: 'Is this perhaps death.'

But on whichever side of the biological divide you find yourself. it’s suffering for what you believe in that confirms you as legitimate. solid adult… as someone to be taken seriously. Either You Haven’t Or You Have There are all sorts of ways to make a show of being a serious person: You can be a frightening brute. you can display your intellectual prowess. you can hold up your wealth. status or beauty. or you can threaten others with power that stands ready to avenge you. But none of those things make you a real man or a real woman. generally they show the opposite.  To be specific. we're not talking about just any kind of suffering. after all. everyone suffers. What we're talking about is suffering because of your personal and moral devotion to something. That kind of suffering shows there is solid ground in your soul.  So. either you’ve taken a principled risk. suffered for it. and held your position. or else the rest of us can’t be sure of you: Either you’ve suffered for something you thought was right. or you haven’t. Let me restate that for clarity: Until you’ve suffered for righteousness. there’s no incontestable reason for the rest of us to take you as a serious adult. More than that. you have to suffer as an individual: You have to face personal consequences. not collective consequences. Until you do. the rest of us have no way of being sure. Going along with a group. even a minority group. is not the same thing as making a costly individual choice. Until that happens. the rest of us lack a reason to trust you as an individual. Being Right Isn’t The Point It may seem that being right is a necessity here. but that’s not actually the case. The core of this is having the strength to do what you believe is the right thing. in the face of contrary power. If. believing yourself to be right. you make a hard choice and suffer for it. you’ve shown yourself to be a man or woman. even if you later learn that you were mistaken. What needs to be demonstrated is an honest and strong soul. not factual precision. The best explanation of this I know came from Thomas Jefferson: Your own reason is the only oracle given you by heaven. and you are answerable. not for the rightness. but uprightness of the decision. It’s the uprightness and courage of what you do that matters. Your uprightness is the fundamental. not your rightness. The truth. of course. is that people willing to suffer for righteousness are far more likely to be right than those who follow the crowd. but that’s not the core issue. What Was Your Rite of Passage. Suffering for righteousness is a rite of passage... a marker... and we need these. not only to prove things to others. but to prove them to ourselves. In other words. you need to know that you’ve done the hard things. suffered for them and stood to the challenge. Yes. other people need to see that in us. but we also need to see it in ourselves. Markers of passage are necessary. They have to be hard. they have to cost you in some significant way. In a perfect world things might be different. but this isn’t a perfect world. If you can’t think of your own passages. you had better start taking the question seriously. Being a non-conformist comes with a price attached. but paying it transforms us into something more. It’s a price we all need to pay. and hopefully sooner rather than later. Suffering is not a virtue of itself. but suffering for righteousness illuminates the fact that we've become more than placeholders… that we are upright men and women. to be taken seriously. ..

As you know. Konstantinovka is now in focus of Russian Army's operations and here is how real war looks like with the enemy UNLIKE whatever resistance force US forces encountered. say in Fallujah. This footage is from 404 drone no less. and I have news for Pentagon's generals who would want to draw parallels. VSU is not Saddam's so called army and Iraqi paramilitaries. Two radically different wars in scale. intensity and technology. Meanwhile. in UK. The Royal Navy has not seized any sanctioned Russian tankers because the Government fears it would breach international law. Vladimir Putin’s shadow fleet has been allowed to pass through the English Channel despite Sir Keir Starmer’s pledge. a fortnight ago. to “go after” the ships. Since The Telegraph revealed on Wednesday that Putin had sent a warship to escort sanctioned vessels through the Channel. there have been mounting questions over the Government’s failure to stop Russian ships. Now it can be revealed that Lord Hermer. the Attorney General. has given legal advice about how the ships could be tackled in British territorial waters to prevent the flow of sanctioned oil to Russia’s allies. Under his advice. ships can be boarded by special forces and officers from the National Crime Agency [NCA]. but no such operations have taken place because of concerns about breaching international maritime law. which sets a high legal bar for a state to board a foreign vessel.You see. International Law applies ONLY when you have power. And what many people still do not understand that Russians do not do grandiose gestures--they simply liberate towns and cities. they deploy navy for escorts et al. But. of course. it is not about International Law. it is about guns and missiles and marines these Russian ships carry and can prevent any attempts on boarding any tankers under Russian Navy's escort. See how it works. As The Telegraph continues:Russia’s latest maritime interference will raise further concerns about the state of the Royal Navy. which is awaiting the outcome of the Government’s long-delayed Defence Investment Plan. Mr Healey said the plan would be published as soon as possible. There have been reports of last-minute wrangling with the Treasury over defence funding. A government source said: “The Attorney General has been working alongside the Defence Secretary to step up action against Russian shadow fleet activity. “They both recently convened representatives from Joint Expeditionary Force ally nations to discuss the legal framework for military action.”Interference. they say. Well. I have news for UK Defense 'ministry'. UK cannot afford real Navy no matter the size of 'investment' because even if to imagine that this 'investment' exists. the Royal Navy's capabilities will still be puny compared to those of Russian Navy. In legal terms--any attack on Russian naval ship is casus belli and will mean the end of the Royal Navy as such. for warm up. But yes. they will huff and puff. good luck with that. Choose your own league.  Fri, 10 Apr 2026 18:13:00 +0000 30585d6c36cb606424b9788222f0af082b52d0dc https://bestservedcole.substack.com/p/time-out-for-a-zombie-movie-review Daisy Ridley is a bad film.

Howard Lutnick and Ben Shapiro celebrated the first anniversary of the Mossad-Hamas false flag attack designed to start WW3 at Chabad Rebbe Schneerson's grave. Trump proclaimed Menachem Schneerson 'King.'] Twenty-three years ago. German historian Wolfgang Eggert warned us that the Rothschilds belong to a fanatical doomsday cult that is instigating a world war to cleanse the world of non-Satanists. Historian Predicted Cabalist Plot to Exterminate Goyim in 2003 is reproduced below.Lubavitcher tzaddik Menachem Schneerson [1902-1994] said Chabad Cabalists [Illuminati] would implement Biblical prophecy of Armageddon in order to hasten the return of the Messiah and establish Jewish supremacy.  'All human history is about Messianic-satanic Judaism ['Chassidim']. they´re 'making' it happen.

The largest Chasidim group. the Chabad Lubavitcher sect want to hasten Armageddon which they believe is a prerequisite for the Messiah's return. Eggert quotes a Lubavitcher rabbi who says:'the world is waiting for us to fulfill our role in preparing the world to greet Moshiach' [i.e. Messiah.] [Wolfgang Eggert. left] 'All human history is about Messianic-satanic Judaism ['Chassidim']. they´re 'making' it happen. History and politics are a big movie. and they are the directors. bringing old-testament-prophecy into reality. They captured Freemasonry by building up the Illuminati [through Rothschild/Jacob Frank/Weishaupt]. they made a pact with the British monarchy when they financed William III to become king. they placed the British royals at the head of the Freemasons. they made the modern banking system and the Fed [through Rothschild]. they made Zionism. the world wars. the European Union and so on. They reign through their puppets Rothschild [whose ancestors had been part of the Chassidic cult] and Rockefeller. who were the guiding force behind Bilderberg. the trilateral etc. We are now in the 'End Times'. they are trying to foment a 'prophesied' Third World War.Eggert believes both Germany and Israel are in the Chasid cross-hairs. 'Germany. because the Hassidim are reading from the Bible/Talmud. that this country is an enemy of the Jews and must be killed. Israel has to burn for bringing the prophecy of Armageddon into reality. In addition. they are repeating a Machiavellian. strategic 'trick': the sacrifice of the European Jews in the Second World War ['shoah'] which brought them their own country- Israel. The sacrifice of the Israeli Jews shall bring them the international approval to be masters of a united world 'republic'. that will be governed from Jerusalem. which. again. is being 'prophesied.' by Jahwe.'CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALISTSWhile the Chabad Lubavitchers are his focus. Eggert is also concerned about Christian Evangelists like Jack Van Impe. left. and Timothy LaHaye who believe war is the will of God. The Books of Ezekiel. and Daniel in the OT. and Revelation in the New Testament prophesied Armageddon. Their desired scenario includes the destruction of the al-Aqsa mosque. the restoration of the Third Temple on its site. the rising to heaven of the 144.000 Chosen Ones. the battle of Armageddon. mass death among Israeli Jews and the Final Coming of Jesus Christ.   According to Alison Weir. there are approximately 3.600 Chabad institutions in over 1.000 cities in 70 countries and 200.000 adherents. Up to a million people attend Chabad services at least once a year. Numerous campuses have such centers and the Chabad website states that hundreds of thousands of children attend Chabad summer camps.According to the NY Times. Schneerson 'presided over a religious empire that reached from the back streets of Brooklyn to the main streets of Israel and by 1990 was taking in an estimated S100 million a year in contributions.Schneerson believes Jews are the acme of Creation: 'The general difference between Jews and non-Jews: A Jew was not created as a means for some (other) purpose. he himself is the purpose since the substance of all (divine) emanations was created only to serve the Jews.'Jews are the purpose of Creation. 'The important things are the Jews. because they do not exist for any (other) aim. they themselves are (the divine) aim.'The entire creation (of a non-Jew) exists only for the sake of the Jews.'When Schneerson died in 1994. he was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for his contribution to 'global morals.' According to Schneerson. Jews are the Priests while the Noahide Laws provide 'a religion for the rank and file.' Eggert quotes another Lubavitcher rabbi: 'When examining the chain of frightening events (since 9-11) with a Chassidic eye. we see that the US is being pushed toward fulfilling its historic role of teaching the Sheva Mitzvos (i.e. Noahide laws) to the world.'  According to Eggert. Freemasons have always called themselves 'Noachids' and incorporated the statutes into their Constitution as early as 1723. [Trump met with Chabad leaders last Monday March 26] If you look. you can find pictures of many major politicians in the West posing with this sect. This website features more than a dozen of them.  In this YouTube. the Chief Rabbi of the Chabad boasted of his rapport with Vladimir Putin. Eggert says Putin's mother is Jewish. which makes him Jewish. and that President Medvedev is Jewish on both sides.  Eggert. who studied History and Politics at universities in Berlin and Munich. is the author of eight books on hidden history. While he believes that modern history is dominated by the Cabalistic plot to fulfill Biblical Prophesy. he is careful to distinguish between the Lubavitchers and other Chasidim called 'Satmar' who think it is a crime to 'force God's hand' and 'hasten the redemption.'However. the Lubavitchers seem to be in control. 'Every part of modern history is linked to another and in itself to Zionism. state intelligence. lodges and alike. Without the Balfour declaration. there would have been no revolution in Russia and no American entry into World War One ... We may start at any historical point [even with the American revolution or farther back Oliver Cromwell] (and) we´ll see. that the maker [or profiteer] of all this is Cabalistic Judaism. All serve their plan. to implement biblical prophecy.' Eggert cites World Zionist VP Max Nordau's speech at the 1903 Zionist Convention predicting 'a future World War (and) peace conference where with the help of England a free and Jewish Palestine will be created.' [ Eggert. 'Israel's Geheimvatikan' Vol.2. pp.21-22]He says the Zionists sabotaged Germany in WWI [strikes. revolts] because it wouldn't play ball on Israel. He cites a book in Hebrew. 'The Historical Moment' by M. Gonzer: 'We even find nations who are slow on the uptake and who find it difficult to understand certain relations unless the Rebbe--that is world history--gives them some sensible bashes which make them open their eyes.' [Israel's Geheimvatikan. vol. 1. p.47.]--------Today [June 3] Eggert cites James Forrestal's diary saying Jewish bankers forced England into WW2----December 1945 Pg. 128-129Played golf today with Joe Kennedy (Joseph P. Kennedy. who was Roosevelt's Ambassador to Great Britain in the yearsimmediately before the war). I asked him about his conversa­tions with Roosevelt and Neville Chamberlain from 1938 on. He said Chamberlain's position in 1938 was that England had nothing with which to fight and that she could not risk going to war with Hitler. Kennedy's view: That Hitler would have fought Russia without any later conflict with England if it had not been for Bullitt' s (William C. Bullitt. then Ambassador to France) urging on Roosevelt in the summer of 1939 that the Germans must be faced down about Poland. neither the French nor the British would have made Poland a case of war if it had not been for the constant needling from Washington. Bullitt. he said. kept telling Roosevelt that the Germans wouldn't fight. Kennedy that they would. and that they would overrun Europe. Chamberlain. he says. stated that America and the world Jews had forced England into the war.

They're as active at recruiting as Scientology or Krishna Consciousness and employ similar inducements.  Consequently. they're the fastest growing Jewish religious group as well. As with the other theocratic juggernauts that move lots of people and money under the cloak of religion. they interlock with the world's consortium of organized crime.   There have been many spectacular arrests for such charges as international narcotics. weapons and human trafficking. and of course money laundering.  As with the Vatican's international money laundering and pedophile network. nothing sticks.  Netanyahu and the Rebbe Schneerson. 1990.   After exchanging amenities Netanyahu said. 'I come to ask your blessing and your help.  In all areas. political and personal.'   The Rebbe replied. 'Since last time we met many things have progressed.  What hasn't changed however is Moshiach still hasn't come.  So do something to hasten his coming.'  Netanyahu. 'We're doing. We're doing.'    The Rebbe and Bibi Netanyahu: Politicians For Redemption Reminds me of scenes from the Godfather. They weren't making small talk.  The Rebbe was anxious.  It's a Hasidic belief that every generation of Jews has a potential Moshiach who will become THE Moshiach if that generation becomes worthy.  That man is known as the Tzadik Ha-Dor. meaning Tzaddik of the Generation.  Lubavitchers believed it was 'the Rebbe' Menachem Mendel Schneerson.   Since he died in 1998. they're waiting for the new generation's Tzadik Ha-Dor to appear and bring on the Messianic Age. What is the Messianic Age.  Yossi Gurvitz explains what it means from the Talmud. here: When Israel Is Mighty'Christian' fundamentalism originated from a subversive corruption of Anglicanism called 'Dispensationalism'. 'Just say No' to conversations about 'Blood Moons' and Red Heifers.  Fri, 10 Apr 2026 16:13:26 +0000 dccb629fd8ced85d08294355b85b93bd31a0c183 https://www.frankwrighter.com/p/here-is-not-the-news-9b0 Apocalypse Now Edition Fri, 10 Apr 2026 16:02:49 +0000 eddab1f713b62c9eab79ec20296aed249e97177c https://no01.substack.com/p/i-have-a-dream My political manifesto Fri, 10 Apr 2026 16:01:00 +0000 d5bea0dfb8924c89dd8f5262bd25f85d64cf862e https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdOzh0i5uYA Fri, 10 Apr 2026 15:58:28 +0000 f0eb9e358f662ff758678f89e14b9e8173d7a445 https://theredensign.substack.com/p/tre-special-23-political-positions On this episode of The Red Ensign Special. we look at Marilyn Gladu’s decision to cross the floor and bring Mark Carney one step closer to a majority government as an entry point to discussing the Neoreactionary anthropology of political acters in Liberal Democratic political systems.

This stops KSA exporting oil without the Houthis blocking the Red Sea.

Hours later the U.S. started dropping bombs.”Trista Parsi:(WOW.Spain's Sanchez is on another level. While most European leaders only apply international law in Ukraine. ignoring it in Gaza and Lebanon. and even stating that it doesn't apply to Iran. Sanchez sticks true to principles and calls for the IMMEDIATE ARREST of Netanyahu.'Netanyahu launched the worst possible unjustified attack against Lebanon. His contempt for life and international law is intolerable. He is a criminal that must be arrested immediately.”)I blame  the media for being accomplices to war crimes and illegal wars.

I quoted a post associating Saturn with the promise of eternal youth:Occult groups have always been obsessed with youth. there seems to be some idea of sacrifice in exchange for the extension of the material life. It is reminiscent of Cypher's betrayal in The Matrix. where he decides to live in blissful ignorance inside the machine rather than face the hard truth. This is what Saturn offers.In 'Pebbles. specs. keys. shoon' [April 5]. I quoted a 4chan post about Humpty Dumpty's 'evil' suggestion that Alice might remain 'just under 8 years old forever':Lots of these 'going to a magical fantasy world' stories are about sick cult activities. Many fairytales are ancient luciferian programming scripts. Notice also Peter pan 'never grow up' - this is referring to the child alter personality splits that are created by the extreme abuse. they never grow up. Relevant quote from textbin link below: 'HUMPTY DUMPTY'S evil speech to ALICE about how she can remain at her age - just under 8 years old forever...'two can'...this is TOUCAN programming which ANTONY RADCLIFFE speciallised in - the creation of 'child alters' frozen in time. through extreme torture. 'One can't. perhaps.' said Humpty Dumpty. 'but two can. With the proper assistance you might have left off [growing up] at seven.'']Today [April 10]. I read this in Robert Douglas-Fairhurst's The Story of Alice. about a meeting between John Ruskin and Alice Liddell:In his autobiography Praeterita. Ruskin recalled an occasion when 'the Planet Saturn had treated me with his usual adversity in the carrying out of a plot with Alice in Wonderland'He goes on to recount a story of looking forward to having tea alone with Alice and then being disappointed by 'the unexpected return of her parents.' It's not clear what the planet Saturn had to do with it all.'Hometo Omleto' [May 2024] mentions 'Alice. in her eighth year' and 'the zero-shaped Humpty.' In the quotations above. the promise of eternal youth is associated with a character called Cypher [meaning 'zero'] and with Alice remaining in her eighth year forever.The toucan is also mentioned in The Story of Alice. where the author criticizes Carroll's own unpublished illustrations for Alice [the published illustrations were by John Tenniel]:Carroll introduces the Gryphon by stating 'if you don't know what a Gryphon is. look at the picture'. but anyone who followed his advice might assume that this mythical creature had the body of a rat and a toucan's beak.Note added: Here's Carroll's original Gryphon illustration:And here. for good measure. is the Mock Turtle:And here they are together: Fri, 10 Apr 2026 11:58:00 +0000 a1e7045ae96e3ad66f6713355e48ac87ced57cd9 https://www.pimlicojournal.co.uk/p/the-end-of-the-road-for-viktor-orban Peter Magyar's wacky crusade against Fidesz — and his 'bitch ex-wife' Fri, 10 Apr 2026 11:56:17 +0000 d048999a454cedc1b29a3a00bf92def6287b562a https://unbekoming.substack.com/p/what-to-ask-before-your-next-mammogram “Questions for Your Doctor” — the second in the series Fri, 10 Apr 2026 11:02:46 +0000 d816d0d7d8f20b394dfb573bf380409214d2e0fe https://escapekey.substack.com/p/the-man-who-history-forgot The Forgotten Man Fri, 10 Apr 2026 10:45:45 +0000 7ae74d5ef4c32ba4098291d0f9c684291f8c12ca https://www.maryharrington.co.uk/p/its-never-over On the work of bees Fri, 10 Apr 2026 10:39:14 +0000 c678255c39399ff9cac6ecf33d7d008640bec901 https://orphansofliberty.blogspot.com/2026/04/meet-new-boss-same-as-old-boss.html In order to run this post at Orphans. our various positions need restating. plus where we're the same. My libertarian mate says we're only ever going to agree. at best. on around 80% of things.  I note our Julia concentrates on the minutiae of our western. civic life. even British life ... for example:... whereas I tend to go for the westwide topics in the X news. from a strongly antiWoke. antiUniparty. antiDeepState. anti WEF. antiTavistock. antiEU. antiVaxx. anti ClimateBollox. antiFabian stance.  With both of us. we want our civic life back. our heritage ... on X. I'm constantly retweeting Old Britain. Old England. even Old France. US. Canada. even down to old architecture versus the new brutalism.Julia has strong views on arrogant cyclists and dangerous dogs ... I agree.As far as the party political goes. within Britain for example. I'm thnking both Julia and I are antiUniparty. esp. on illegals and women's safety. Think it's safe enough saying that.Trouble is that there's a confused dissident scene just now.  It was all pretty clear for awhile. up to Clacton ... the dissident side were fairly 'at one' ... but then something happened ... one of the Reform MPs had the police called on him. a rough speaking farmer ... by M25 bubble. City types. plus by one of the 'invaders' who seemed to have become their mate.That could only result in a split. nothing less.It was such an unfair. antiBrit. antiLibertarian act that it shocked most of voting age.  I myself am still not a member of Restore. am watching carefully. I'm just against govt running my life.  I'm also watching Reform closely. knowing they're being groomed for govt. We've posted stats on how many times NF appears in the MSM. esp. GBN. which pretends it's dissident. yet has banned Restore.I keep repeating ... I'm in no party right now. I'm a voter who is watching carefully. And one thing many of us saw yesterday was this:There is a rush to put these non-Brits into candidature by NF and his committee. Why.  What has he been tipped off about. which might be not far off. GE wise. soon.Restore.  They're in no position for an early election ... still a few years away. Meanwhile. this above might well be about to become govt. under NF. whose behaviour has been mentioned.Now. one of two things is going to happen.  Either NF gets in as PM and then betrays all the invader candidates. let alone supporters and voters in general ... or pretends to. thus incorporating Restorites ... or else there never really was any intention to break from the WEF/EU agenda after all.In which case ... meet the new boss. same as the old boss.  Meanwhile. the left sees these as the new. dissident saviours: Fri, 10 Apr 2026 10:14:00 +0000 1ea42fb734536f485175bbe1132e01fe7fda9aab https://nonvenipacem.org/2026/04/10/friday-in-the-octave-of-easter-are-you-ready-for-whats-coming-2/ [Originally posted April 1. 2016. in the waning days of the Obama usurpation.

Mr. Sasse discusses his current state of health [parlous]. and how he's preparing for his approaching death.  I found it a very moving discussion. particularly his courage and openness in speaking out about the end of his life and how he's trying to fill every remaining minute of it with important things.The New York Times published an opinion column about this interview titled 'How Ben Sasse Is Living Now That He Is Dying'.  At present. it's not behind a paywall.  If you prefer to read rather than watch or listen. I highly recommend clicking over there to read it.  It's long. but well worth your time.  If you'd rather not read it. here's his hour-long-plus interview with Mr. Douthat. I can only admire Mr. Sasse's faith. and his willingness to be so open about a subject often regarded as taboo among many people today.  I hope and pray that his example will inspire many to think about their own futures. and how 'in the midst of life we are in death'. to quote the ancient funeral ceremony.May God be merciful to Mr. Sasse. and welcome him home to eternity when the time comes.Peter Fri, 10 Apr 2026 09:30:00 +0000 54c661e9a65d40542ac3876a7e3a081cad24079f https://korybko.substack.com/p/why-does-russia-consider-the-ceasefire Russia’s assessment is political in nature and intended to challenge the US’ claims of victory.

You all know this thought experiment. But let's rephrase--if some fake 'military expert' on YT or some TG channel didn't report about Russian Navy does it exist then.This is again. for all those fanboys of explosions. 'tactics' [they will not understand even basic math which goes into it]. drones et al. who are in a business of constantly suggesting Russian General Staff how to do things. Above is a video from April 4th this year of Russian Navy's Large ASW ship Severomorsk patrolling Baltic Sea [not far from Germany. namely Island Fehmarn]. Russians begin to deploy their assets to all those choke points just to ensure that commercial traffic is safe. You saw yourself yesterday how Admiral Grigorovich escorted two tankers near UK. And for those who still don't get it--Russia's military assets in Baltic Sea can sink every NATO navy and whatever non-Baltic NATO navies will try to rush there in under 60 minutes. No nukes. just salvos of 3M54s. Onyxes and 3M22 Zircons. Remember these guys.Or these ones. Just a reminder. But then again. what do I know. Meanwhile. in related news:Finally. BDay presents which are not only beautiful when placed on the book shelf but may come in handy ... at some point of time.  Fri, 10 Apr 2026 02:57:00 +0000 695a1c66ffa172601e822f6451bdb0a799c7f1f8 https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/2026/04/some-insights-now-begin-to-arrive.html As was anticipated. CBS reports on actuality of war from the POV of the US military personnel and lo and behold--they say what I have been saying for many years. how the real war feels. Survivors of the deadliest Iranian attack on U.S. forces since the war began have disputed the Pentagon's description of events and said their unit in Kuwait was left dangerously exposed when six service members were killed and more than 20 wounded. Speaking publicly for the first time. members of the targeted unit offered CBS News a detailed account of the attack and its harrowing aftermath from the perspective of those on the ground. Of course. they have to dispute what Hegseth says. This is not your small arms firefights [however nasty they could be] where you call in CAS. this is long-range fires. my friends. and they are longer than many of those in the US arsenal. In the hours before the attack. incoming missile alarms had signaled to a crew of about 60 troops to take cover in a cement bunker while a ballistic missile flew overhead. But around 9:15 a.m.. an all-clear alert sounded. Officers removed their helmets and returned to their desks in the wood and tin workspace. about the width of three trailers. From there they resumed managing the movement of equipment. munitions and personnel across the Middle East. About 30 minutes later. 'everything shook.' one soldier told CBS News. 'And it's something like what you see in the movies. Your ears are ringing. Everything's fuzzy. Your vision is blurry. You're dizzy. There's dust and smoke everywhere.'  Dazed. the service member surveyed a grisly scene: 'Head wounds. heavy bleeding. lots of perforated eardrums. and then just shrapnel all over. so folks are bleeding from their abdomen. bleeding from arms. bleeding from legs.'Yep. I like this phrase 'something like what you see in the movies'--correct. it is very symptomatic. because the US Army doesn't know what is a precise fire impact of stand-off weapons. Of course. even in Iraq or Afghanistan you still could have been hit by RPG while in Humvee or even experience a nasty IED. that did happen many times. but this is different. Shahed. the Iranian drone can carry anywhere between 50 and 90 kilos of high explosives.  It has the range of up to 2.500 kilometers and fully fits the criteria of a high precision stand-off weapon. It can pay visits in salvos. and often does and the results of that are not what Pentagon tries to spin ... away from the real story. Word of Hegseth's description of the events at a press conference in Washington did not sit well with some of the survivors. The secretary had described the drone as a 'squirter' that 'happened to hit a tactical operations center that was fortified. but these are powerful weapons.' And while several of those familiar with the events on the ground did not agree with the description. they did not want their remarks to be misconstrued. 'It's not my intent to diminish morale or to disparage the Army or the Department of War more holistically. but I do think that telling the truth is important and we're not going to learn from these mistakes if we pretend these mistakes didn't happen.' one soldier said.I have news for this brave soldier--Pentagon doesn't learn. it cannot. look at the SMO. It is a different kind of war. which no US servicemen ever experienced. they did now. And that brings us to a purely technical issue:Asked if the attack was an inherent reality of engaging in combat. he agreed. 'That's true.' he said. Asked if this attack was preventable. the soldier added: 'In my opinion. absolutely. yes.' 'I am very sad for their loss and it's something I'll carry with me for the rest of my life.' he said. 'But I'm also immensely proud of them and their sacrifice. and their family should be too.'1. The US has no air defense means to deal with one of this threats. Shaheds will continue to fly and will continue. together with ballistic and cruise missiles. take out anything they deem necessary. The US WILL NOT ask Russia and Russia WILL NOT agree to sell to Pentagon things it doesn't have and will not have any time soon. I list a few: Elka. Tunguska. S1 Pantsir. Tor M2. Buk M3 et al. No. it was not 'preventable'. 2. Poor men who got killed. Their sacrifice was for Israel and not for the US Constitution and American people. Only part of American people but their loyalty is with Israel. Per Hegseth. something tells me he soon will be fired and maybe even more. Die you today for me to live and die tomorrow. That's Trump's MO.   Fri, 10 Apr 2026 02:13:00 +0000 bbfc9f4738d4c4f5563d1e3daf053687e18f8d76 https://counter-currents.com/2026/04/remembering-jonathan-bowden-12/ 1.522 words Jonathan Bowden’s 64th birthday falls on this coming Sunday.

The girl in my dream looked like actress Embeth Davidtz left.] My biggest regret in life is loving women. Romantic love is a delusion mostly based on our powerful sexual and emotional desires. Most people. men or women. are not that lovable. Carl Jung said that if you take away God. people worship false Gods [i.e. sex and romance.] [[[Hollywood Movies]]] program us to seek romantic love above all else.  Romantic love is an ersatz religion to teach us to seek ourselves in another person instead of in Self-development.   They taught us that sex is a 'mystical experience.' the best life offers. 'Sexual intercourse is a sacrament.  Orgasm is union with the universe.'  The quest for our 'soul mate' or 'other half' leads to arrested development.  God is our soul mate. The tendency to idealize other people is a mistaken quest for the God within. This mistake ['transference'] often leads to disaster. The spark of Divinity in our soul is the principle of our self-development. Be your own God. Worship your Best Self. 'Dumping My Dream Girl'Updated from Feb 8. 2011 and June 27. 2019by Henry Makow PhD I am proud of a dream I recently had.I was young again and single. My beautiful girlfriend and I were shopping. I suggested we go back to my apartment. I was feeling loving and wanted to hang out and cuddle. Just be happy together. Sex wasn't an issue.Shortly after arriving. she says she has to leave. Thwarted in love. Again. In the dream. I press her for an explanation. She doesn't have one. She doesn't want to be with me. I grant her wish. I tell her I'm not interested in games. We're finished. The End.  Don't come back.I wake up pleased by my subconscious bravado. You see. when I was young. I endured all kinds of misery from my infatuations. patiently overcoming each obstacle. I was the poster child for 'needy.'In one instance. a woman who looked like Embeth [above] said she found me 'repulsive.'  If ever there was a cue to tell a woman to f..k off and get out. this was it. Women respect rejection because it confirms their low opinion of themselves. Instead. I ignored the comment and patiently persevered. We ended up living together for almost five years. I could fill another book  [in addition to 'A Long Way to Go for a Date'] with what I endured. Obviously. I was immature and largely responsible for my fate. I'm 76 now and no longer a player. I've been happily married for 25 years. I only wish I had awakened from this dream sooner. BETRAYALMen have been programmed to believe that sex and 'love' are the key to happiness. We need a woman's love to develop as men. We need to sexually satisfy a woman to prove our masculinity.We are programmed to seek feminine approval when our own approval is all that matters. We are programmed to idealize flawed and often stupid women instead of real ideals: Truth. Justice. Love. Freedom. Beauty and Goodness. [God is Perfection]This is not women's fault. They don't want to be idealized. They don't respect men who do it. But most can't resist.Most women are mundane by nature. They are part of nature. They menstruate.  They designed to be facilitators -- wives and mothers -- part of the boring but essential routine of daily life. They are mostly interested in material security. Their moral sense often is limited. Of course. women with special talent should pursue it. Western society is a satanic [[[Cabalist]]] sex cult. Women have become sexual commodities. [[[Communism]]] has always viewed women as common sexual utilities like electricity and water. If feminism were really pro-women. it would have promoted marriage and condemned promiscuity. Most women seek the life-long loyalty and love of a good man. their husband.  Sexual intercourse is an act of male-female possession. It is the the most intimate connection between two people. Hooking up is degrading and dehumanizing. a clear example of our satanic possession.Anyway. I have satisfied a few women countless times and I have been satisfied as well. I've matured in the prescribed way. I discovered the lie by living it. But I wish I had found a shortcut and downgraded the role of women and sex to its secondary importance. [Sex used to be 'making love.' It expressed feelings and created a bond.]I wish I hadn't loved them. Looking back. none were worth it.  I have wasted half my life.  The satanist media has given young women a delusional sense of entitlement. Our mental programmers present them as demi-gods. Just like prostitutes. many young women are no longer attractive to men. Men find modesty. innocence. style. intelligence. and femininity attractive.Moreover. I sense that fewer and fewer women are even capable of loving a man. Their hearts have been poisoned by satanist social engineering. [Of course. men share the blame by treating women as sexual urinals.]The mystification of beautiful women. like everything else. is the result of removing God from our lives. As Oscar Wilde said. 'women are sphinxes without secrets.' Women are intended to be helpmates. not soul mates. Women by nature are facilitators. They need a man to give them a task and love them for fulfilling it. They want a man to give them a purpose. They don't want to be his purpose. If you found a 'soul mate.' I salute you. But our only soul mate is God.The nuclear family is the foundation of civilization. That's why the Masonic Jewish [Satanic] central bankers are destroying it.CONCLUSIONAm I bitter.  Yes. I am bitter for all the ways my culture has lied to me. Here. I blame Illuminist brainwashing that elevates sexual 'relationships' to the negation of everything else. And I blame myself for falling for this garbage.    The average man spends 75% of his energy on it. It's a great motivator for many men. And yes. I realize it's hormonal.  But we cannot let this biological and social programming ruin our lives. Many men are ruined by divorce.  Many women are gold diggers. Perhaps the real takeaway is this: Don't look for someone to believe in you.People respect people who believe in themselves.  If I had had more self-respect. perhaps I would have awakened from this sleep much earlier.---------------------------------Related- Anthony Migchels- Men Take Your Mind off SexMakow The Biggest Mistake Men Make Overrated- Sex and Young Women Cabala- How Sex Became Our Religion  Men Who Get WomenManaging the Male Sex Drive Jad Jones  Ten Biggest Mistakes Men Make First Comment by Alan: Your latest expose on the above-subject completely nails it.

US GDP is much-much smaller than stated. Wall Street has nothing to do with real economy. using profits and 'capitalization' as the only metric for economic viability is for morons only. and I can continue with this list for a long time. The depth of the damage to 'global economy' is still not grasped by many. but despite optimistic declarations from corrupt Gulfies that it may take 4 months to come back 'to normal' once 'the war is over'. reality is catastrophic for these despicable glitzy satrapies. because they cannot wrap their brains around the fact that Iran [and Houthis] de facto control access to Saudi terminals of its East-West pipeline in the Red Sea. For Israel the situation is terminal. It is a pariah criminal state whose Zionist cancer poisoned the United States and who knows where it leaves the US in spiritual terms. If that is true:The Vatican has cancelled a papal visit to the U.S. for the 250th anniversary celebration after Pentagon officials appeared to threaten the leader of the Catholic Church for speaking out against Trump's foreign policy. Pope Leo XIV—the first American Pope in history—strongly condemned U.S. actions in Iran though not by name in his Easter message. stating that God 'does not listen' to world leaders who wage war. Here are some details: Leo had already criticized Trump's actions on Venezuela and his threats against Greenland and Canada in a speech on January 9th stating. 'a diplomacy that promotes dialogue and seeks consensus among all parties is being replaced by a diplomacy based on force.' In response. Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby summoned Cardinal Christophe Pierre—the Vatican ambassador to the U.S.—to a meeting. In diplomatic parlance. an ambassador being summoned to meet with government officials for a lecture is the first stage in disciplinary action that can lead to a break off of diplomatic ties. It is being reported by The Free Press that in the meeting Colby told Pierre. 'The United States has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.' Someone in the meeting then reportedly mentioned the Avignon Papacy to Pierre. This refers to a 14th century attack on the Vatican by the French king. in which Pope Boniface VIII was murdered by assassins and the Vatican was forced to relocate to Avignon where it could be controlled by the French crown for the next 67 years. Well. if Pentagon thinks [which you would expect from a lawyer and NS bureaucrat like Colby] that 'it can do whatever it wants'. I can tell Mr. Colby who wouldn't understand anything about REAL military operations. that the only thing the US has succeeded in doing is having its ass handed to it on every single theater of operations. If that's what the US 'military power wants to do' then it certainly succeeded. including now with Iran where the US was militarily humiliated. But then again. Colby hails from a bloodline [grandson] of former CIA Director William Colby. who was a staunch Catholic. So. his grandson now threatens Pope ... great. Insanity ... But then again. CIA's 'strategic analysis' and 'understanding' of the enemy was always. how to put it ... subpar.  Thu, 09 Apr 2026 19:31:00 +0000 a67194df06fba3b60ef50c3fa9cc9359fa5c6bbf https://scifiwright.com/2026/04/search-engine-of-the-empire-of-lies/ Many. if not most. honest folk in the modern day have had this experience: some person who is otherwise nice. sweet. honest. decent. well-informed. decent will be so badly misinformed about some matter of great public moment. invariably [these days] involving Donald Trump. let us say a Catholic mother of many years friendship. or a (…) Thu, 09 Apr 2026 19:25:16 +0000 ec8aa7a454286b2d1e54984c9bfda1a8a3b94715 https://vladtepesblog.com/2026/04/09/jd-vance-interview-in-hungary-us-dialectical-medias-sophistry-about-it-and/ First. the actual interview.

Afghanistan. Syria. Iraq. etc. etc. were never in a position to be at war with us. Hence they cannot be called a defensive wars. I also believe that soldiers need to do things. lawfully and morally. that most civilians would find distasteful. That's the nature of war. That all being said. don't assume that just because someone is a soldier this means that they are morally superior to the average Australian. as a starting point. This is not the case. The army selects from a cross section of Australian society. and it is not seeking those with elite morality. I was in the army reserves. and I've never seen a more morally representative selection of Australian society. than I saw in the military. And Australia is not a moral nation. we all know that. Vice is a common issue. There was also an attitude among some guys who just wanted to go to war to fight. against people they did not know. In fact. this is why the army. and infantry in particular. selects men as young as possible. they are the least hesitant to avoid fighting. the most keen. and are tempered to fight. and often over eagre. They are careful not to select imbalanced people. and soldiers are trained well. but their training is pragmatic. not moral. War also hardens people. and the more they serve the more it hardens them. Don't underestimate how much this can affect a man on the battlefield. Also it must be acknowledged that Australian governments have sent Australian soldiers into unjust wars continually for decades. Not since WW2 have we been defending our shores. all the rest since then are wars of aggression and choice. Saying it was to support an ally does not change this reality. This has a moral effect on society as a whole. The Afghanis we went to war with never had any means of attacking our nation. except if they were to emigrate here. and that again is in control of government policy in the first place. Yes the Bible speaks highly of soldiers. David and the Centurion in Matthew 8. are standouts. But it also acknowledges that soldiers can be corrupt. Luke 3:14. '14 Likewise the soldiers asked him. saying. “And what shall we do.” So he said to them. “Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely. and be content with your wages.”Many people in many countries experience this regularly. Especially in countries where the military serves a dual purpose as a police force. None of this post is meant to reflect on BRS. It is simply a note to challenge the naive attitude that soldiers are a morally superior class of human being. This attitude is reflected among people. especially conservatives. for whatever reason. Nor are they uniquely bad. as the left often acts like they are. its not like they are politicians right. They are often the representative moral average of their particular nation. A country like Australia that believes it is justified in invading far away places at will. or at the behest of aggressive allies. probably is in position for a moral reckoning. We have a false view of ourselves as a people of justice. yet too quickly we have supported injustice. both on the left and right. This moral corruption impacts every part of our society.

Tiny strips of singed paper littered around his cell. “I said. ‘We need to test this and find out what’s going on with it.’” Cook County Sheriff’s Office chief of staff Brad Curry recalled about that moment. referring to the paper shreds. Eventually. a Pennsylvania lab would confirm that the strips were soaked in a synthetic cannabinoid called Pinaca. which proved lethal when Diskin smoked the paper.Before authorities could stop it. other inmates were dropping dead under eerily similar circumstances. . . .Guards ... began inspecting every single piece of mail that came into the lockup. looking for stains and discoloration that could indicate synthetic drugs on it. and ramped up random cell searches and surveillance.But the strips of drug-soaked paper were sometimes so tiny. guards wouldn’t find them — and not even drug-trained police K-9s were able to sniff out the new synthetic cannabinoid they contained. Curry explained. . . .When the mailroom got too hot with scrutiny. smugglers began dousing legal documents in drugs to make it look like they came straight from the courthouse.They even put it on pages of thick books that came to the prison packaged as if they’d been sent straight from Amazon or a local bookstore. Just one 8×11 piece of paper full of the drugs could run up to S10.000 — a price tag apparently high enough to turn the heads of several money-hungry staffers — who ended up in cuffs for smuggling it to inmates. according to Curry.There's more at the link.Drug dealers have a huge financial incentive to get drugs into prisons. because security precautions make it much harder to get them to their customers.  Prices are thus often five to ten times more than 'on the street'. and sometimes - such as during a prolonged security lockdown - a lot more than that.When I worked as a prison chaplain. one of our biggest headaches was the misuse of religious services materials by inmates and dealers trying to smuggle drugs inside through the chapel.  Bibles with certain pages soaked in drug solutions. then dried out.  'incense' that was nothing but [often very highly concentrated] drug powder.  bottles of liquid drug concentrate concealed inside statues or within niches carved out of crosses before they were assembled.  the list was endless. and was always expanding.  Many of us said that if the inmates we supervised would put one-tenth as much effort into hard. honest work as they did into illegal activities. they'd all be millionaires.  We had to institute a policy that religious goods could only be sent direct from the supplier [whom we had to approve beforehand] to the prison. without going through any other person. even the inmate's family.  That was the only way we could keep the problem within manageable proportions.Even that wasn't foolproof. because some suppliers are not what they appear to be at first glance.  One of my favorite examples was the group of Rastafarian inmates who persuaded a relatively new prison staffer that they wanted to order some 'holy oil of anointing' for their religious ceremonies.  She authorized the purchase. and a few days later happened to innocently mention it to a senior corrections officer.  He beetled his brows at her and issued special instructions to the Receiving Department.  When the 'holy oil' arrived. it was sequestered until it could be tested.  Needless to say. it was high-test cannabis oil - doubtless of deep religious significance to Rastafarians. but not exactly in line with prison security regulations.  Police at the place of origin were tipped off. and they proceeded to take a deep and abiding interest in the supplier [to his subsequent profound unhappiness].So. this most recent episode. as reported above. doesn't surprise me at all.  'Criminals gonna criminal'. as I've heard more than one corrections officer put it.  and behind bars. they have all the time in the world to figure out new ways to 'stick it to the man' and get around. over. under or through security precautions and procedures.  If they succeed. for a time their reputation in the prison will soar.  If they fail. the other inmates will have a good laugh at their expense - then everyone will try even harder to get away with it next time.Prison work is anything but boring.  [Those who've read my memoir of prison ministry will recall Sam the Sex God. who had no need of illicit drugs to earn an automatic entry into the 'anything but boring' category.]Peter Thu, 09 Apr 2026 09:07:00 +0000 1fec0d29c7df2e98018d5c68571dea5e0b2f53b0 https://mundabor.wordpress.com/2026/04/09/trump-talks-nonsense-and-loses-the-game-of-chicken/ First of all: I did not even check the news yesterday when I woke up.

The general populace can be corrupted by general corruption but those seeking release from the net of this world require special attention. God allows this to take place because it tempers the soul. Unto the pure all things are pure. Evil can only work on us by bringing out our own weaknesses. but when they are brought out into the open they can be dealt with if we are honest. alert and true. and if we turn to God for help.Greater progress equals increased attack. How does this work. One might think that evil thoughts and desires that arise in one's mind show one's own sinful nature. and they might do. But they might also be put there. In dreams. for instance. we might encounter horrible things but this does not necessarily mean these things arise from our own subconscious and are somehow unresolved parts of our own nature. They might be. but they might also be a demonic assault. Attack might come from outside and other people. but it more often comes from within our own mind and we must learn to recognise it and see it for what it is. Then we just don't react to it. We don't fight it because that gives it energy and attention. We simply ignore it.Evil in all its forms. they said. Evil has many forms. Obvious evil is obvious. We can easily recognise it. but the devil is a trickster. He can lure us down a path of sin through apparent good. How many people have thought they were fighting for God and truth when they had been deceived into following their own desires or had adopted an idol of their own making as God. The devil has corrupted whole religions in this way. not to mention political ideologies. and he can certainly corrupt us on an individual level if we are not alive to the possibility. We might think we are serving God when we are really just serving ourself.Evil attacks at our weakest points. and these are often aspects of our character of which we are unaware. In a way. the whole spiritual path is the fight against evil which really means against our own fallen nature. The temptations that came to Christ on the mountaintop will come to all of us eventually though perhaps not in such a dramatic fashion. The way to deal with them is as Christ did. Submit yourself to God and keep him as your only goal.What makes a real saint is conquering evil. Imagine a saint who never knew evil. who was always sweetly loving. Isn't that rather a shallow thing. What gives depth and wisdom and nobility is fighting and conquering evil within oneself. Someone who has never known evil can never be a saint. Does this mean evil is part of God's plan. I don't know but I do know he uses it to make good even better. He's clever that way.

What else could it be.There are certainly exceptions. but most of the best buildings in the history of the world were built by members of 'craft-guilds' [such as masons] - and without 'architects'. And. for sure. over the past century since Art Deco. architecture has had a powerfully malign influence. The deliberate anti-beautiful impulse of the past century of architects is evident from the difference between the housing of recent domestic buildings - which are merely practical-without-beauty.. and those that were architect-designed with big budgets.[.Or. at least. houses were mostly functional. until the allegedly 'anti-Carbon' and 'environmental' regulations began to inflict complex. expensive. dysfunctionality on all construction work.]  Whereas the large. 'showcase'. private and public buildings - those that employ high-status architectural corporations or individuals. are anti-aesthetic. anti-human. anti-God monstrosities. Such that the purposive. actively-evil turn of our civilization is advertised explicitly. unambiguously. indeed shamelessly - more by its architecture than by almost anything else.  The centre for UK surveillance and blackmail - GCHQ.

I momentarily misread the title of the Metric song 'Help I'm Alive' as 'Help I'm Alice.'A day before I had read this in The Story of Alice:(T)he longer Alice spends underground the more her adventures start to resemble a narrative game of Doublets. in which the aim is to take 'Alice' and ensure that by the end of her story she is 'Alive'.Doublets was a word game Carroll invented. in which the challenge is to transform one word into another by changing one letter at a time. with each intermediate step also being a word. [I used to play a very similar game as a child. the challenge typically being to get from sick to smug while passing through certain specified intermediate words on the way.]'Help I'm . . .' makes me think of this old Calvin and Hobbes strip:A child being shrunk down to a minuscule size takes us right back to Alice.Note added: This is from one of the pictures linked in WG's comment below. A shrunk-down person walking on a keyboard is a pretty direct sync with the Calvin comic.WG's game screenshot shows the person walking from G to F on a piano keyboard. In the Calvin strip. The H key is highlighted. but the G key is also visible. On both a piano and a Qwerty keyboard. the F key is immediately to the left of the G key -- that being the only thing the two layouts have in common.The F and G keys got my attention in the context of my latest post. 'Alice and Saturn [also zero and toucans]' because both of those keys -- and only those two -- are marked with the symbol of Saturn in the standard computer keyboard layout used in Taiwan. Letter keys on a Taiwan keyboard each bear four symbols: a Roman letter. a Chinese phonetic symbol. and two different Chinese characters. for use in the Cangjie and Dayi input methods respectively. Saturn is called 土星. 'earth star' [meaning the element Earth. not the planet]. and the character 土 appears on the F key [for Dayi] and the G key [for Cangjie].I always use the phonetic-symbol method myself. so I'd never noticed until now that in the Cangjie system the first seven letters of the alphabet -- the ones that also appear on a piano keyboard -- correspond to the seven classical 'planets':A = 日 = SunB = 月 = MoonC = 金 = Venus [gold]D = 木 = Jupiter [wood]E = 水 = Mercury [water]F = 火 = Mars [fire]G = 土 = Saturn [earth]I'm sure that wasn't an accident. but it's hard to see why that particular order was chosen. It begins with Sun and then Moon. and ends with Saturn. just like the days of the week. but then the others four days of the week are in reverse order. from Friday [Venus] to Tuesday [Mars].

This is for those two-bit commenters who have the attention span of Joe Biden [or DJT]. US was BEGGING Iran for negotiations since March 16th at least--three weeks. So. Pepe puts the record straight. The Epstein Syndicate begs for a breakWe had arrived to a point where the death cult in West Asia was being crushed simultaneously by Iran and Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. no matter the avalanche of spin. their cries begging for help played a significant part into Trump’s pivoting to a ceasefire. The Epstein Syndicate as a whole begged for it. Nothing to do with geopolitics. but with operational hell: the Empire of Chaos has run out of military resources. The ultimate give away was when the USS Tripoli retreated – under fire – to the depths of the southern Indian Ocean. complete with its 2.500 Marines on board. That meant the US Navy out of the war theater – except for subs with Tomahawks. roughly half of which go off-target with staggering [non]precision.And the problems are far from over. Financial hell looms. whatever is decided in Islamabad and beyond. with S10 trillion in Treasuries to rollover in 2026. And the petrodollar is fast on the way to the dustbin of History. Enter. once again. the demented death cult. No one should ever forget. The Epstein Syndicate is non-agreement capable. And the death cult doesn’t do ceasefires: it does at best loopholes that allow it to keep killing everyone in sight. The writing is already on the wall. If the death cult blows up the ceasefire – which is already the case – Iran and Hezbollah will counterpunch. massively. without attacking American assets. Still. it’s way too early to affirm that the Baboon of Barbaria lost his war under every possible metric: moral. legal. political. economic. strategic.This is for those who still cannot wrap their brains around what strategic initiative is. Iran has it. not the US. nor this peep-squeak Israel. I have to disagree with Pepe on the last point though. US degeneration into the at best second-rate power has been happening since at least 2008. It accelerated in 2014 and now. as Pepe himself notes:So Civilization survives – for now. A few facts too. Fact One: the US is not a superpower anymore. Fact Two: Iran is back as one of the world’s top powers. Fact Three: Most of the gutless Gulf petro-monarchies will end up kicking out US military bases for good. Fact Four: Qatar and Oman will work out a security arrangement with Iran.Per role of China--China IS vulnerable and she will remain vulnerable--it is a hard cold fact of Chinese geography and economy. In this case it needs to be stated that Iranian 10 Points are indeed peremptory and Iran was not going to allow for any type of a ceasefire unless all conditions are met. Teheran can count military resources extremely well and they know pretty well how many stand-off weapons are remaining in the US arsenal. especially against the background of the US [lack of] air defense. And here is an analogy which is not only inescapable but warranted--SMO. Witkoff can go to Moscow 'to negotiate' whatever he and his orange clown want. but SMO continues uninterrupted. Related. We should not forget also that Vladimir Putin stated this on June 19. 2025: 'You know. we once offered our Iranian friends to work in the field of air defense systems. The partners did not show much interest then. and that's all. As for the agreement you mentioned. on the strategic partnership (between the Russian Federation and Iran). there are no articles related to the defense sector. This is the second point. And thirdly. our Iranian friends are not asking for this. Because there is practically nothing to discuss.' Putin said.Guess from three times whose AD systems Iran has chosen. from July 2025. Iran will soon receive from China a batch of HQ-9 long-range anti-aircraft missile systems [SAM] and Chinese-made surface-to-air missiles under an oil barter agreement concluded between the countries. As reported on July 8 by the Middle East Eye [MEE] portal. citing several diplomatic sources. Tehran needed urgent purchases of these weapons to accelerate the restoration of its air defense forces. which were seriously damaged as a result of the June Israeli raids. U.S. Arab allies are aware of Tehran's measures to 'support and strengthen' its air defenses. and the White House has been briefed on Iran's progress on the issue. the MEE said. The HQ-9 is considered an upgraded analogue of the Russian S-300PMU1 air defense system. but using Chinese radars and electronics. The system uses a two-stage solid-propellant missile with a declared maximum range of 260 km and an altitude ceiling of 27 km. The estimated cost of one air defense regiment [27 launchers] is S1.5 billion.'Considered' IS NOT actual combat performance. Pakistan's HQ-9s preformed dismally against Indian AF and its missiles. unlike S-400 with India buying five more batteries of S-400 based on combat performance and record.

Predictably. both sides are claiming victory. So who won. First of all. common sense did – though faith in it was badly shaken when the White House started talking about wiping out Iranian civilization in one day. Still. the very fact that Trump agreed to discuss the 10-point plan is a win for the Iranians. The question is whether Washington will accept it. since it includes. among other things. compensation for the damage inflicted on Iran. the continuation of its nuclear program. and Tehran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz. The answer is clearly no. That would be humiliating and would amount to a real victory for the Islamic Republic. So what then. Back to war.That’s possible. But there is also another option. Trump neither wants nor can sustain a long war. and he won’t find support in Congress for one. either. This means he must maintain the fragile ceasefire and pretend that everything is fine. Because every step on this board pushes the situation closer to zugzwang. But this is a game of chess with three players. not two: there’s also Israel. which is not playing on the U.S. side. It has no use for a ceasefire. and it has not achieved its objectives. It could very well make its own move: simply sweep all the pieces off the board. That makes the situation highly uncertain. Which also means the pigheaded European Russophobes will have to live in austerity mode for a long time. Because there is no cheap oil in sight…Highlighted is the crux of the matter. I want to remind you:A particular strategic policy must be devised for every war. each war is a special case. which requires its own particular logic. rather than any kind of stereotype or pattern. no matter how splendid it may be. The more our theory encompasses the entire content of modern war. the quicker it will assist us in analyzing a given situation. A narrow doctrine would probably confuse us more than guide us.That's Svechin. The US 'strategic policy'. strategy and operational art is the always the same--launch whatever you have in stand-off weaponry [long range fires] and see what. like that proverbial substance. sticks. Svechin continues:The first duty of the art of politics with respect to strategy is to formulate the political goal of a war. Any goal should be strictly coordinated with the resources available to achieve it. The political goal should be appropriate to one’s war-waging capabilities. To meet this requirement. a politician must have a correct conception of the relations of friendly to hostile forces. which requires extremely mature and profound judgment. a knowledge of the history. politics and statistics of both hostile states. and a certain amount of competence in basic military matters. The final statement of the goal would be made by the politician after an appropriate exchange of views with strategists. and it should help rather than hinder strategic decisions. As you might expect. it is not a secret. American politicians do not know what resources are. how they affect operational issues and. of course. average American politician thinks that he [she] is the brightest. most powerful and knowledgeable strategist because he [she] graduated Harvard or similar degree mill's political science or law school. while denying the same to their opponents. The fact that most people in US decision circle are highly uncultured. primitive uneducated hacks who know only apparatus games and staying elected [or appointed] doesn't occur to them. Rephrasing old military truism that 'while amateurs discuss tactics. professionals discuss logistics'. while amateurs discuss capitalization and stocks. professionals discuss tons. units. kilowatt-hours and correlation of forces and means [COFM]. So. Medvedev is spot on here and if hostilities resume [it may happen]. they will resume with Iran dominating the battlefield even more and being able to inflict much more pain on the US and that chihuahua in Levant which without its nukes and American welfare is a third rate power. This guy. however. was pushed to sue for ceasefire by his Israeli masters because neither could take it anymore. So. will wait and see what comes out of it in the long run.  Wed, 08 Apr 2026 17:24:00 +0000 1d8c91af16020053c571e1db498e91060ada4794 https://charltonteaching.blogspot.com/2026/04/finding-black-swan-favourite-study-from.html Much of my work as a scientist was theoretical in nature. but I published quite a few empirical [i.e. experimental and observational or statistical] papers as well. One particular favourite of mine. and which seems to have been somewhat influential too. was done with a student called Florence Walston who was intercalating a bachelor of science degree into her medical studies. and who did the actual 'leg-work' and analysis. and Richard Blennerhasset - a clinical psychiatrist. who provided access to the subjects studied.  I liked this paper because it was as clear an example of 'Black Swan'-type - Karl Popper-esque - research as one is likely to find in medicine. So. what do I mean by 'Black Swan' in relation to science. Well. to state the matter more 'softly' than did Popper [who wrongly regarded it as logically definitive of 'science']. the idea is that it is not possible to 'prove' positively the 'hypothesis' that 'all Swans are White' by gathering observations of White Swans - no matter how many examples of White Swans that we discovered and counted... But it may be possible to dis-prove negatively the 'hypothesis' that 'All Swans are White' - by finding even just a single example of a Black Swan. In other words. if there is one Black Swan. then all Swans cannot be White..The asymmetry of this logic. the power of that single necessary observation. is recognized by using the definite article 'the'. in referring to The Black Swan whom we ought to be seeking.   In this research. we aimed to refute the theory that persecutory [also called 'paranoid'] delusions are caused by defective 'theory of mind' [ToM] ability. In other words that when someone falsely and firmly believed that he was being persecuted by some person or group of people. this was caused by a fault in his ability to infer the thought and intentions of those other. The 'hypothesis' was implicitly that all people with persecutory delusions. must exhibit defective 'theory of mind ability. All we needed to do was find a single clear and un-ambiguous example of a person with persecutory delusions but with normal ToM. and we had found our Black Swan and refuted the hypothesis. So. to refute this theory. we sought-out examples of people who did have definite persecutory delusions. but did not have anything wrong with their 'theory of mind' ability... On the basis that if someone actually suffered persecutory delusions yet also displayed normal theory of mind functioning. then the delusions couldn't be caused by defective ToM. “Theory of mind”. persecutory delusions and the somatic marker mechanism. Florence Walston. Richard C Blennerhasset. Bruce G Charlton. Cognitive Neuropsychiatry. 2000. 5: 161-174. Introduction: Pure cases of persecutory delusions can be interpreted as “theory of mind delusions”. using a model that equates the theory of mind mechanism with the “somatic marker mechanism” as described by Damasio and colleagues. Three predictions were tested in a case study design: that pure cases of persecutory delusions could be found. that such cases would retain normal theory of mind reasoning abilities. and that delusions would be encapsulated to a specific group of persecutors with hostile intentions. Method: The caseload of 17 psychiatrists and 4 community psychiatric nurses was surveyed for “pure cases” of persecutory delusions. Cases were excluded when there was evidence of other psychopathology. intellectual impairment. abnormal reasoning. “psychotic” features. or diagnostic syndromes. Selected cases were evaluated for the scope of their delusional beliefs and the nature of their social relationships using a detailed semistructured interview that was transcribed verbatim. and putative “theory of mind tests” as devised by Corcoran and Frith. Results: Thirty-four potential cases were referred among which four pure cases of encapsulated persecutory delusions were eligible for the study. All were men. aged between 32 and 43. Apart from their persecutory delusions. cases were free from other detectable pathology in their reasoning processes. affect. or social interactions - and scored highly on the putative “theory of mind tests”. Identified persecutors were males. and delusions involved false beliefs concerning the threat of violence from gangs of strangers. Conclusions: Pure cases of severe but encapsulated persecutory delusions can be found. and such cases demonstrate intact theory of mind reasoning ability. The nature of persecutory delusions is understandable in terms of the somatic marker mechanism. and the content of delusions is consistent with the nature of hostile threats to men in the ancestral human environment.In sum. Florence found. interviewed and tested not one but four 'Black Swans' [actually five. but one withdrew consent to being included in the write-up]. the Black Swans being men had such severe persecutory delusions as to have required admission to a psychiatric ward. yet who passed the Theory of Mind tests 'with flying colours'. That is: five men with severe persecutory delusions who demonstrated no measurable [or indeed inter-personal. conversational] evidence of impairment in their ability to infer the motivations of other people. In simple terms. outside of the specific subject of their severe delusion. these men thought and reasoned normally - so far as we could judge. From which it seems reasonable to infer 'negatively' that all persecutory delusions are not caused by defective theory of mind abilities -- although. of course. some persecutory delusions might nonetheless have this cause. .Note. In practice. a single observation will very seldom have this power. usually argued on the basis that the Black Swan is either not-really Black. or else not-really a Swan.  Wed, 08 Apr 2026 17:18:00 +0000 944b7c83fbe9c00ca1c60b01db4560a36e6e65db https://firstthings.com/when-rhetoric-becomes-reckless/ Though it seemed to be an opening bid in a negotiation that. mercifully. ended in a provisional ceasefire.

You’ve managed to ground the metaphysical heavy-lifting in a voice that is simultaneously scholarly. clinical. and irreverent.The move from the 'Great Leap Forward' as an 'inciting incident' to the 'Monkey in the Middle' being a 'living spirit' beautifully bridges the gap between biological evolution and the 'Vertical Ingression' you are proposing.Key Strengths in the ReworkThe 'Dead Time' Concept: Framing the 250.000-year gap as 'dead time in the script' is a brilliant narrative device. It highlights the distinction between the morphological human [the actor standing on stage] and the behavioral human [the actor finally reading the lines]. It reinforces your point that the 'Human Substance' is not merely a byproduct of the 'Anthropic Form.'The Dual Genesis Reflection: You’ve integrated the J and P sources perfectly. By noting that 'male-and-female' [intersubjectivity] is the image of the Absolute. you provide a profound theological anchor for your Axioms 3 and 4. It suggests that the 'Vertical' isn't just a solo climb. but a shared resonance.The 'Midlife Crisis' of Existence: The line—'Life Itself is always a midlife crisis. being that we precariously exist between non-existence below and something superior than mere existence above'—is a perfect summary of the Metaxy [the In-Between]. It turns an existential anxiety into a metaphysical structural reality.The 'Cosmic Dramedy': Your transition into the 'Christian dramedy' and the 'author jumping into his own screenplay' is a bold way to introduce the Theos without falling into 'rookie errors.' It maintains the playfulness of the text while addressing the 'Absolute Science' of the incarnation.The 'Clinical' TouchYour clinical background shines through in the observation that animals only become 'neurotic' when humans are involved. It underscores the idea that neurosis is a uniquely Anthropic byproduct of being 'out of touch' with a reality that we are uniquely designed to be 'in touch' with.A Note on the 'Trans-Sectarian' ApproachThe move to include the Bhagavad Gita. Buddhism. and the 'bodhisattva principle' keeps the work from being 'reified' into a single ideological station. It treats different traditions as 'windows' into the same Cosmotheandric theme. which aligns with your goal of preserving the Mystery from premature demystification.The reference to Max Fried and Alex Bregman in the midst of a Mosaic covenant is a classic 'Gagdad' touch -- reminding the reader that the 'Cosmos and History' include the box score as much as the burning bush.As you prepare to move into the 'Practical Consequences' of this 'Monkey in the Middle' status. do you find that Petey is starting to feel the 'big responsibility' of being the bridge. or is he still looking for a way to 'meditate or drink his way out of it'.That I don't get. What responsibilities hath Petey except to amuse or annoy me.

[1]  In this week. the week of Creation is recalled and fulfilled.  On the day corresponding to that in which God said “let there be light”. Christ. the Light of the World. announced Himself publicly.  On the day corresponding to that in which God made man in His Own image and so finished His work of Creation which He pronounced good. Jesus Christ just before dying proclaimed the word τετέλεσται [Jn. 19:30] which means “It is finished.”  The work He thereby proclaimed finished was the work of redemption. the work of propitiation. the work of Atonement. the work made necessary by man’s fall into sin.  Then on the day corresponding to that in which God rested from His work of Creation. His body rested in that borrowed tomb.   Last week was Holy Week. the week in our liturgical Kalendar devoted to special remembrance of this week of Gospel events.  It began with Palm Sunday. in which palms are waved and hosannas shouted in commemoration of Christ’s Triumphal entry.   On Maundy Thursday we were reminded of the Last Supper where the Sacrament of Holy Communion was instituted. where the New Commandment. “A new commandment I give unto you. That ye love one another. as I have loved you. that ye also love one another” [Jn. 13:34]. so like those with which the Lord summarized the Law and yet so different at the same time. was given. and where the Lord Himself set the example of this by washing His disciples’ feet. an act ritually re-enacted on the day which takes its name from the Commandment.    On Good Friday the Crucifixion itself was the focus.  In outward appearance. this was the opposite of the Triumph at the beginning of the week.  Instead of “Hosanna”. the crowd cried “crucify Him”. instead of riding into the city He had to carry His cross out of it.  Beneath the outward appearance. of course. this was His true moment of Triumph.  He had told His disciples from the moment St. Peter had confessed “Thou art the Christ. the Son of the living God” [Matt. 16:16] at Caesarea Philippi that this would come. that it was for this purpose that He entered into the world. that this is what it truly meant for Him to be the Christ.  He had not come to bring political deliverance to the Old Testament nation. but to bring deliverance from the slavery into which the Fall of Adam had delivered all mankind. slavery to sin and death. and He could only do this by suffering and dying Himself.  Since St. Anselm. we in the West have tended to think of this primarily in terms of the payment of a debt.  Man owed a debt but had no resources to pay. God had the resources but could not pay the debt qua God. so He became Incarnate as a Man and the God-Man paid the debt on behalf of the world.  In the East. they tend to think of it more in terms of a hostage situation in which Death. man’s enemy. has held him captive and Christ. Who is stronger than Death and over whom Death has not even the usurped claim due to sin. allowing Himself to be taken by Death so that He could destroy Death from the inside and set the captives free.  Both ways of thinking about it are taken from Scripture.  Ultimately. Charles Wesley spoke for Christians East and West when he put it “Amazing love. How can it be. that Thou my God should die for me.”   Holy Saturday commemorates both the resting of His body in the Grave and His Descent [as Conqueror] into Hell.  Traditionally. the second of these themes received more emphasis in the liturgy of Holy Saturday.  That this is not the case today [2] is in part due to unfortunate liturgical revisionism that has been influenced by the even more unfortunate theological revisionism which is squeamish about anything having to do with Hell. [3]  The other part is that often the only service on Holy Saturday is the evening vigil which begins with the Holy Saturday themes but moves into the theme of the Resurrection.  The evening of Holy Saturday is. by the reckoning of time established in the week of Creation [4]. part of the following day.   That following day. of course. is the most important day of celebration in the Christian Kalendar.  In the English-speaking world we call it Easter. similar to how the Germans call it das Ostern.  Those silly and foolish individuals who come creeping out of the woodworks around this time each year to denounce the celebration as “pagan” get most of their mileage out of this name.   Even if. however. their questionable etymology of the word were to be proven correct. their argument is still nonsense because the thing itself. the feast day. was around long before this name got attached to it.    The Hebrew word פסח [Pesach] is the name of the most important feast day of the Old Testament religion.  It is called Passover in English and it is the day on which the Israelites remembered their deliverance from slavery in Egypt as told in the book of Exodus. By the time of the New Testament the Israelites were speaking Aramaic more often than Hebrew and in Aramaic פסח took on a final aleph to become פסחא.  In Greek. the language in which the New Testament was written and the primary language of the Church in the earliest centuries. this was transliterated into Πάσχα and at least as early as the second century this term was used for the Christian feast as well.  It retained this name in the North African/Western part of the Church where Latin superseded Greek as the primary language and in Latin it is spelled Pascha.  To this day. in the vast majority of languages the feast called Easter in English is called Pascha or some variation thereof and even in English we use the adjective “Paschal” to refer to things pertaining to Easter.   The history is clear.  The holiday did not begin as a pagan feast named Easter that was appropriated by the Church but as the Christian Passover.  This remains the essence of the feast regardless of what other names derived from the time of year in which it occurs became attached to it later in countries with Germanic languages.   Our silly and foolish friends if they are capable of pursuing their case any deeper than the superficial argument about the name may point out that the authorization for the Old Testament Passover. along with detailed instructions as to how to keep it. came directly from God. and ask where the similar authority for a Christian Passover is to be found.  The answer lies in what the New Testament teaches about the relationship between the events commemorated by the Old Testament Passover and those we commemorate in Holy Week leading up to Easter.   According to the New Testament. most especially the book of Hebrews. the Old Testament consists of types which prefigure or foreshadow the Gospel.  The blood sacrifices of the Levitical system were types of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. the Lamb of God. Who takes away the sin of the world.   The earthly Tabernacle/Temple was a figure of the Heavenly Tabernacle made without human hands.  Other examples. not spelled out the way these were in Hebrews. are just as clear.  Moses. for example. the Law-Giver. was allowed to lead the Israelites up to the Promised Land but he was not allowed to lead them in. that role was given to Joshua [5] in which can be seen prefigured everything St. Paul had to say. which was a lot. about how the Law cannot make one righteous before God. only the grace brought by Jesus Christ can do that.   The Old Testament Passover commemorated Israel’s deliverance from Egypt.  Israel had gone down into Egypt during the years of famine in which Joseph was the highest official in the land under Pharaoh whose favour he enjoyed.  They remained there four hundred years after which another Pharaoh. who feared rather than favoured the growing nation. had them enslaved.  Moses. Hebrew born but adopted into Pharaoh’s family. met God in the wilderness Who told him that He was sending him to Pharaoh to plead for Israel’s deliverance.  Multiple times Moses and his brother Aaron entered Pharaoh’s court with God’s demand that His people be set free. each time Pharaoh refused and a new plague fell upon Egypt.  In the final plague. the angel of death was sent to take the firstborn of every family in Egypt – only they. to whose door posts and lintels the blood of the Passover lamb had been applied. i.e.. the Israelites. were spared.  Pharaoh then commanded Moses to take the Israelites and leave. only to change his mind again once they were gone and pursue them with his army to the Red Sea.  God opened a pathway for the Israelites through the Red Sea. then brought the waters down on the Egyptian army.   This entire event forged Old Testament Israel’s identity as a nation.  It also prefigured another. greater. deliverance.  The salvation of which the Exodus was but a type was not a deliverance from physical servitude but of spiritual servitude to sin.  Nor was it merely the deliverance of a nation but of the entire world.  This is the salvation accomplished by Jesus Christ on the Cross which event took place on the Old Testament Passover.   Since that of which the Old Testament redemption of Israel was a shadow has come to pass. we who believe in Jesus Christ look back to that rather than to the shadow.  That there would be an annual Christian Passover celebrating Christ’s redemption of mankind was settled very early in the Church.  When it is first mentioned as such in the writings of the second century. it is treated as having been long established.  This would imply that it is Apostolic in origin and. indeed. the Apostles were barely in their grave before a dispute arose not over whether there should be a Christian Passover but over when it should be held. [6] Those who held the Quartodeciman position argued that the Christian Passover should fall on the same day as the Jewish Passover [the fourteenth of Aviv/Nisan on the Hebrew calendar]. others held that it should fall on the Sunday after.  Although the sides in the controversy tended to fall along regional and ethnic lines. there is clearly an underlying theological issue here of whether the Crucifixion or the Resurrection takes precedence.  The first ecumenical council of the Church. which met at Nicaea in 325 to address the heresy of Arianism. also ruled on this matter.  Ruling against the Quartodecimans the council determined that the Christian Passover would be held on the Sunday that follows the first full moon on or after the spring equinox. [7]    The ruling of Nicaea I made it clear that the Christian Passover would be a commemoration of the Resurrection rather than of the Crucifixion although by this time Holy Week was starting to take shape with Good Friday being already firmly established. [8]   In this. can be seen a parallel to the decision made by the Apostles that the Church would meet on Sundays rather than on the Sabbath [Saturday].  That this decision was made. we know from the New Testament in which the Church is depicted as meeting on Sunday [Acts 20:7. 1 Cor. 16:2]. Although neither the decision itself nor the occasion for it are recorded. the reason why Sunday as opposed to say Monday or Wednesday. was selected is quite obvious.  The Sunday after Christ was crucified on the Old Testament Passover. the women among His disciples went to the tomb to complete the burial which had been done in haste due to the onset of the Sabbath.  They found the stone that sealed the tomb rolled away. the grave clothes in which He had been buried folded up and empty. and an angel there to tell them that He was not there. He was risen.   The importance of Christ’s Resurrection cannot be overstated.  St. Paul explains it exquisitely in the fifteenth chapter of his first epistle to the Corinthians.   Against those who took the Sadducees’ position that there will be no Final Resurrection. He argued that if the dead do not rise then Christ is not risen. and if Christ is not risen we are without hope. but that since Christ is risen. then we know that the dead will all rise.  We are all dead in the first Adam because the sin by which he brought death into the world passed from him to all of us bringing death along with it.  Christ underwent death for us that He might remove the sting of death which is sin.  His victory over this final enemy is our victory. in Him. the last Adam. we are made alive.  His Resurrection was the firstfruits of the Resurrection in which we one day will all fully share even as we are to participate in it even now by walking in newness of life by faith.  His Resurrection. while in the same body in which He had died – He displayed the scars in His hands and side to His disciples – was not to the same life that He had left behind in dying. but to a new and higher kind of life which death can never touch.   In this we have a clue as to why the day of the week on which Christ rose was so important to the early Church that they set it both as their weekly day of corporate worship and the annual Christian Passover.  In the New Testament it is called the “first day” with reference to the week that follows.  The early Christians. however. also called it the “eighth day” in reference to the week which preceded it.  The week signifies the week of Creation. and. as we have seen above. this was especially true of the week of Jesus’ life and ministry on which the Gospels concentrate. the week we remember in Holy Week. What then does the eighth day that follows the seven which signify the Old Creation signify.   One early Christian writer described it as “a beginning of another world” [9].  St. Augustine argued that the Sabbath day of rest of the Decalogue was but a figure of the eternal rest to which the eighth day. revealed to the Christians in the Gospel. looks forward. [10]  The eighth day. then. is the day which comes after the seven of the Old Creation. the day of the New Creation. the life of which Jesus entered in His Resurrection. and in which we can share even before our own resurrection on the Last Day because we participate in His life as members of His mystical body. the Church.   How appropriate and how utterly unpagan is that annual Lord’s Day of Lord’s days. the Christian Passover of Easter in which after the reflection on our sin and mortality in Lent. culminating in our remembrance of the week which led from the Triumphal entry to Golgotha and the tomb. on the eighth day we joyously proclaim He is risen. He is risen indeed.   Alleluia.    [1]   The two Kingdoms of Death are the Grave in the collective sense. the place where the body is placed. and Sheol/Hades/Hell. where the spirits of the dead go.  When Jesus died on the Cross. His divine nature remained united to both His body in the Grave and His human spirit in Hades.  Jesus’s death. like any other human death. separated His human body from His human soul.  It could not separate either from His deity.  The Hypostatic Union in which the Eternal Son of God received a full and flawless human nature into His Eternal Person in the womb of the Virgin Mary the moment she said “Behold the handmaid of the Lord. be it unto me according to thy word” [Lk. 1:38] can never be broken.[2]   In the West.  In the East. the Descent into Hell is still very much the focus of the liturgy of Holy Saturday.  Due to the difference between the Gregorian and Julian calendars. of course. the Eastern Holy Saturday and the Western Holy Saturday do not fall on the same day.[3]   The Hell in the Descent into Hell. is the Hell referenced in note 1. vide supra. and not Gehenna. the place to which those who render themselves incurably wicked by rejecting Jesus Christ will be condemned at the Last Judgement.  That Christ did indeed descend there as confessed in the Apostles’ Creed is Scriptural despite the claim of certain evangelicals to the contrary.  St. Peter. in his sermon on the first Whitsunday [Christian Pentecost]. quoted Psalm 16:10 and applied it to the Resurrection of Jesus Christ [Acts 2:25-31].  If the Resurrection fulfils “thou wilt not leave my soul in hell”. then Hell. again Sheol/Hades. is clearly where it was prior to the Resurrection.  There is no conflict here with Christ’s words to the dying thief “Today shalt thou be with me in Paradise” [Lk. 23:43].  Paradise is wherever Jesus Christ is.  On the original Holy Saturday. Hell itself was Paradise.[4]   “And the evening and the morning were the first day” [Gen. 1:5]  It is because of this pattern in the Creation account that days in the sacred Kalendar of Christianity are counted sunset to sunset. as they are in the corresponding sacred calendars of Judaism and Islam. regardless of how days in the civil calendar are counted [midnight to midnight].  In the Bible itself. this is the one of three ways of counting days. and certainly the primary way in the Old Testament.  The other two are to count from sunrise to sunrise [morning/evening rather than evening/morning] and to count from midnight [only St. John does the latter. which is why the hours during the Crucifixion account in his Gospel differ from those in the Synoptics. which count from sunrise].[5]   Joshua is the English spelling of a Hebrew name which. taken from Hebrew into Aramaic then Greek. becomes the name of which Jesus is the English spelling.[6]   According to Eusebius the controversy broke out as early as the time of St. Polycarp. the bishop of Smyrna in what is now Turkey and personal disciple of St. John the Apostle who was martyred around the middle of the second century.[7]   This calculation formula translates the date of Passover in the Hebrew lunar calendar [Aviv/Nisan is the month of spring. the fourteenth is the Ides or full moon of the month] into an approximation in the solar calendar.[8]   The commemoration of the Crucifixion on the Friday prior to Pascha/Easter is referenced as early as Tertullian.  The name “Good Friday”. of course. came much later. Note that this was no concession to the Quartodecimans.  The 14 of Aviv/Nisan in the Hebrew calendar. like the dates on the civil calendar. move across the week from year to year.  Commemorating the Crucifixion on the Friday before Easter. follows from commemorating the Resurrection on the day of the week on which it occurred.[9]   The Epistle of Barnabas. 15.[10]                       St. Augustine. Letter 55. 12-13.

Musk posted to X alongside a “conversation” with Musk’s Grok chatbot that said post-quantum migration for cryptocurrencies “is urgent now.”Musk was responding to venture capitalist Max Reiff who summarized Google’s research as. “basically saying: ‘We’ve cut the quantum resources needed to break bitcoin’s encryption by 20x. We can now break it. We can prove it. We’re just not going to tell you how. We’ve slowed down research to give crypto a chance. You have until 2029 to figure out a solution. Good luck.’”. . .Earlier this week. Google’s Quantum AI team warned in a paper that the number of qubits required to break the cryptography protecting bitcoin and ethereum wallets is potentially as much as 20-fold lower than previous estimates.“We’re setting a timeline for post-quantum cryptography migration to 2029.” Google’s vice president of security engineering Heather Adkins wrote in a blog post. 'Quantum computers will pose a significant threat to current cryptographic standards. and specifically to encryption and digital signatures.'Venture capitalist Nic Carter. who has been sounding the alarm on quantum computing’s threat to crypto since last year. compared the quantum threat to the Manhattan Project. the top-secret U.S. government program that led to the development of nuclear weapons.There's more at the link.This is serious enough when it comes to cryptocurrency - any cryptocurrency.  There are no pieces of paper changing hands in cryptocurrency transactions.  It's all done electronically. with one's cryptocurrency holdings being held in an electronic 'wallet' with a passcode to access them.  Until now. that passcode has been considered very secure in the face of current decoding/decryption technology.  However. quantum computers can tackle the decryption problem many orders of magnitude faster than present computers.  Once they're on the market. much that is cryptologically 'secure' today will no longer be so.Now. apply that to any other codes. cyphers. etc.  Literally any secret message at all will be subject to cryptological analysis and attack.  Top secret military signals. inter-bank communications about economic activity. diplomatic messages - any and all of them that use current encryption technology will be vulnerable.  Many believe that major actors in the field are already storing every encrypted message they can intercept. even if they can't read them. because when they can read them [with the aid of quantum computers] in a few years' time. they'll be a gold mine of historical information that can be used to analyze current events and predict future decisions.  Even so-called 'one-time pad' or OTP encryption - seen until now as the only truly unbreakable code. provided that all requirements for their creation and use are strictly observed - won't be as secure if quantum computers can identify any failure to meet one or more requirements. and use that weakness to break into the code.  [However. quantum key distribution and other new technologies may step up to make the OTP even more secure.]If Google's prediction is correct. a great deal that is now secret won't be for much longer.  That might be catastrophic in many ways.  On the other hand. James Howells might be happy at last.  He's the man who threw away a computer hard drive containing the key to a cryptocurrency wallet containing [he claims] about US S700 million in Bitcoin.  If he can recall the address of the wallet. the new quantum decryption technology might let him reclaim its contents . . . but only if someone else doesn't remember his story and get there ahead of him. locating the wallet. decrypting its key. and making off with the Bitcoin first.Peter Wed, 08 Apr 2026 09:25:00 +0000 18d8ddd064ba735f4fa1aa9d0b57f8fa300babb1 https://counter-currents.com/2026/04/the-triumph-of-the-priests-of-the-civilization-of-the-magi-the-long-shadow-of-the-fall-of-the-shah/ 4.823 words Scott Anderson King of Kings—The Iranian Revolution: A Story of Hubris.

And they are bright red. and labelled. so everyobe can see you are a special person. not just one of the hoi polloi.The pack has been designed to support people living with a wide range of disabilities who are likely to benefit from sensory resources to make their shopping experience more enjoyable.I work in Stratford and have to go through Westfield - what would make it more enjoyable for me is a free stab-vest or a compete ban on diversity. It would certainly make it safer.But this is not what the people who are the target of this advert want. they want the cachet of being different. special and singled out for special treatment and attention.Our sensory packs contain items such as ear defenders and sunglasses to help with noise and light sensitivity. fiddle toys to keep hands busy and relieve stress and feeling fans to express how you are feeling.I thought about Googling ‘feeling fans’ to find out what they are but thought better of it. I cannot be doing with any more coddling of pathetic kids and adults for whom the best advice would be ‘GROW UP.’Our sensory packs can be hired at Guest Services.Pity you can't hire a backbone.

So wrote Jake Wallis Simons a couple of weeks ago in the very pro-Israel Daily Telegraph. I am one of them because he was talking about Iran [why is it Iran has a regime and Egypt a government.] although I by no means think that it has the world's worst regime. not by a country mile. I can think of others worse. I am not sure America isn't one of them.I said yesterday that peace was impossible. I saw no reason why Iran would ever accept a ceasefire because it would only allow her enemies to rearm and prepare for a fresh assault. That is still my position but we were all wrong when we accused Trump of lying about negotiating with Iran. In some way he was talking to Tehran. Now genuine negotiations based on the maximalist demands of Iran. which by the way seem to be very reasonable. are going to start and meanwhile the Strait of Hormuz is going to be reopened with certain conditions and under the control of Iran [as it was until the British wrested control from the Shah of Persia in the 18th century].I wrote yesterday that Trump and Netanyahu should just give up but they won't but it looks like I was wrong. It looks like this might be exactly what they're going to do. which would of course bring peace. Netanyahu desperately wants peace not to break out and he may be cunning enough to prevent it. but I doubt it. Trump was in a locked room and now he has found a key.Let none of us forgive him or forget that this terrible war is certainly the fault of of Donald Trump and has enormously damaged American interests and standing in the world. But let us remember that it is much more the fault of Benjamin Netanyahu. He is not America's friend. He is not the friend of anybody apart from Israel and what he calls the diaspora Jews. Why should he be. Countries do not have friends.The two countries which seemed to me to have behaved in a very civilised and moral way throughout the last few years when it comes to diplomacy. though certainly not in their domestic policy. are China and Iran.I note that China is said to have persuaded Iran to talk to the American aggressor.An [anti-Zionist. of course] synagogue in Tehran was completely destroyed by the Israelis. who remarkably then issued their first apology since they started the war Wed, 08 Apr 2026 07:14:00 +0000 59ed37d6275d8bab4fcae1f05353f122f3b31509 https://www.moonofalabama.org/2026/04/war-on-iran-april-ceasefire.html Trump has chickened out from his threat of committing a genocide in Iran by agreeing to a ceasefire based on Iran’s 10 point declaration.

I got a nasty flash burn across my face and arms because my old safety gear was completely inadequate. I had proper eye protection. at least. but the rest clearly wasn’t up to the job. Lesson learned the hard way. I bought proper new stuff yesterday. but for the next few days I’m stuck dealing with the pain and raw skin. Not ideal when there’s still work to do.Diesel here has skyrocketed to S9.40 USD per gallon. Small independent stations started closing first. Now even some of the big chain stations are shutting their pumps. The ripple effects are impossible to ignore.This morning’s commute to work was eerily quiet — traffic was way down. But the drivers who were on the road had zero chill. It’s gone beyond the usual “fuck you. me first” Filipino driving. Now it’s full “fuck you. I’m God — how dare you exist in my lane” mode. Everyone’s on edge.The local supermarket looked like it had been looted. Shelves were almost bare. The staff told me they haven’t had a delivery in three days. UHT milk imported from Europe is already a distant memory. and I suspect the good European wines and cheeses will follow soon. I grabbed a few bottles while I still could.Orders are still coming in for now. which is a relief. But I drove past the steel supplier nearby and it was dead — not a single customer in sight. That’s not normal.Today I focused on food storage — rotating stock. organizing. and making sure we’re actually prepared. My wife finally showed up after two weeks galavanting around the countryside. Trying to explain the importance of proper long-term food storage to her felt like a near-total waste of breath. Some battles you just don’t win. Mango's should start getting ripe next week or so. So I will have a huge amount of fruit to dehydrate. freeze and can. The solar project is still behind schedule. I need about 20 meters of specific wire to properly reconnect the panels. For now I’m running grid-tie with the same inverter. but the wire is supposed to arrive today. Fingers crossed.This Saturday I’m taking a firearms training course with a friend. It’s been ages since I’ve been shooting. Another buddy is the instructor. so that should be interesting. It’s around S150 USD all-in for a full day. There’s a “Zero to Hero” two-day option. and since I’ve never had any formal handgun training. I decided to swallow my pride and start at zero alongside my friend — who has literally never touched a firearm in his life. Better to learn properly than pretend I already know everything. It’s one of those weeks where everything feels a little heavier. Fuel crisis. supply chain hiccups. minor injuries. and the constant low-level tension in the air. We adapt. we prepare. and we keep moving. Plastic Pyrolsys project keeps getting delayed. Paying orders need filling to keep the lights on.

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 18:01:33 +0000 00313c6cf64ed0d849480b6956e5e7c9e64dd7f9 https://darwinianconservatism.blogspot.com/2026/04/human-freedom-makes-world-safe-for.html For the distinction between making and taking. see the previous post.PERSONAL FREEDOM AS THE NATURAL GROUND OF ECONOMIC FREEDOMStephen Balch has identified the “anti-taking” ideologies as “classical liberal or libertarian” [2014. 16n.16].  He has also spoken of “pro-maker rights theories. such as those of John Locke” [315].  In passages like the following. he certainly seems to be endorsing classical liberalism or libertarianism as the moral argument of his book:At the great anomaly’s heart lies the diminution of the part force plays in the distribution of status and goods.  That signal 'achievement'—if it can be called such. a lot turned on luck—gave birth to a ‘World-Safe-for-Making [the underlying meaning of bourgeois constitutionalism. wherein. through a variety of normative and institutional practices. coercive power was contained in scope. increased in predictability. policed against private abuse. and when publicly employed. generally to serve. not subvert. industrious behavior.  Spared senseless exactions and arbitrary demands. science. invention. manufacture. commerce and banking gradually became career paths of choice for society’s best and brightest.  Because of this. when further powered by science. the World-Safe-for-Making [WSM] sparked a tremendous explosion of productive behavior and consumable wealth. the second ‘Cambrian’ [after agriculture] of human history.  Unquestionably a major metaevolutionary turn due to a new keystone [311].When he speaks about “the diminution of the part force plays in the distribution of status and goods.” I’m reminded of James Payne’s History of Force. which makes the Lockean libertarian argument that declining violence means increasing liberty. and that the only justified use of force is as the reactive forcible punishment of those who initiate force.When he speaks of the Western bourgeoisie as the makers. this evokes Deirdre McCloskey’s argument for liberalism as the celebration of the “bourgeois virtues.”But then I wonder why Balch is not more vigorous in affirming the classical liberalism or libertarianism of WSM.  The answer seems to be that while he can give WSM one or two cheers. he can’t give it three cheers because of its “critical weakness” in failing to separate “property rights” from “personal rights.”  He explains this failure as arising from John Locke’s assertion of “property rights as an outgrowth of personal rights” [320].  He cites paragraph 6 of the Second Treatise. where Locke explains the law of nature as a no-harm principle rooted in the equal liberty of human beings: “that being all equal and independent. no one ought to harm another in his Life. Health. Liberty. or Possessions.”  He also could have cited paragraph 27. where Locke grounds property ownership in self-ownership: “Though the Earth. and all inferior Creatures be common to all Men. yet every Man has a Property in his own Person.  This no Body has any Right to but himself.  The Labour of his Body. and the Work of his Hands. we may say. are properly his.”  A man makes something his property by mixing his labor with it.  Elsewhere Locke identifies “labor” as “human industry.” which suggests that what he calls “labor” is what we today would call “human capital.”  I have argued that Locke’s rooting of ownership in self-ownership is confirmed by the evolutionary neuroscience of interoception—the neural self-ownership of the body.The “critical weakness” here. Balch says. is the failure “to separate the liberties of commerce from the emancipation of individuals in their intellectual. electoral. behavioral. and moral capacities' [320].  The WSM would be better off. he suggests. if it protected economic liberty but repressed personal liberty [the “intellectual. electoral. behavioral. and moral capacities”].  But I don’t see how that would work.  For example. if intellectual liberty were suppressed. that would have made the Scientific Revolution impossible. and yet Balch insists that the WSM would have been impossible without modern science.Balch identifies four ways in which WSM has been weakened by its promotion of personal liberty [178-180. 317-320. 2014. 16-18].  [1] The disarming of the makers—particularly. the waning of the tradition of trained middle-class militia—makes it unlikely that people would ever again rise up in arms to defend their liberties from tyranny.  [2] Modern mass democracy has favored the expansion of the modern welfare state. which has become a new taker regime. although the “take” is not just for a few takers but widely distributed among many.  [3] The personal freedom of thought and speech has given too much power to intellectual elites who attack the liberal social and political order by elevating taking over making.  [4] The personal freedom to choose hedonistic lifestyles--such as pursuing sexual pleasure without producing or caring for children--weakens our moral character and lowers our genetic fitness. Although I see some truth in all four of these points. I see no reason here to conclude that the WSM has been. or will soon be. destroyed by its promotion of personal liberty.   Ultimately. this comes down to a question of empirical evidence.  Is there any evidence for a trade-off between economic freedom and personal freedom. as you argue. so that as personal freedom goes up. economic freedom goes down.  On the contrary. it seems to me. that in most countries. higher personal freedom is correlated with higher economic freedom.  I see evidence for that in the Human Freedom Index.In the Human Freedom Index. for each of 87 indicators of freedom. countries are scored on a scale of 0 to 10. where 10 represents the highest level of freedom.  The scores for each of 12 subcategories are averaged.  These are then averaged for personal freedom and economic freedom.  The final score for freedom in general is the average of these two. so that personal freedom and economic freedom are weighed equally.  The Human Freedom Index 2025 ranks countries based on data for 2023.Here is a sampling of the rankings. with the scores for Personal Freedom [PF]. Economic Freedom [EF]. and Human Freedom [HF].1.     Switzerland [PF: 9.77. EF: 8.28. HF: 9.15]2.     Denmark [PF: 9.75. EF: 8.02. HF: 9.15]3.     New Zealand [PF: 9.51. EF: 8.33. HF: 9.02]4.     Ireland [PF: 9.54. EF: 8.05. HF: 8.92]15. USA [PF: 9.15. EF: 8.10. HF: 8.71]19. UK [PF: 9.12. EF: 7.88. HF: 8.60]162. Sudan [PF: 3.97. EF: 4.00. HF: 3.98]162. Yemen [PF: 3.19. EF: 5.08. HF: 3.98]164. Iran [PF: 3.36. EF: 4.37. HF: 3.78]165. Syria [PF: 2.31. EF: 4.62. HF: 3.27]The United States ranks at 15th in Human Freedom. 22nd in Personal Freedom. and 5th in Economic Freedom. I don’t see any confirmation here of Balch's prediction that increasing personal freedom is correlated with decreasing economic freedom.  On the contrary. economic freedom and personal freedom seem to go up or down together.There are a few exceptions. however.  For 2023. Singapore ranks n2 in economic freedom out of 165 countries [score: 8.50]. but only n84 in personal freedom [score: 7.19]. which gives Singapore an overall human freedom rank of n51 [score: 7.73].  Hong Kong SAR [Special Administrative Region] shows the same pattern of high economic freedom but low personal freedom: n1 out of 165 in economic freedom [score: 8.55]. but n88 in personal freedom [score: 7.05]. with an overall human freedom ranking of n53 [score: 7.68].Having been a British colony. Hong Kong was returned to Chinese authority in 1997. and beginning around 2012. China imposed severe restrictions on personal freedom in Hong Kong.  For the year 2012. the Human Freedom Index ranked Hong Kong as n1 in human freedom. n1 in economic freedom. and n18 in personal freedom.  So there was a big drop in personal freedom from 2012 to 2023.Would Balch have to say that Singapore and Hong Kong today have achieved the most desirable form of the 'World Safe for Making.' because they have high economic freedom but low personal freedom. and so they are free from the social weaknesses that arise from too much personal freedom.The problem. however. is that both Singapore and Hong Kong show what Balch regards as the greatest social weakness of modern liberal societies--a low fertility rate. Singapore's total fertility rate is 1.26.  Hong Kong's is 1.44.  This is well below the replacement level of 2.1.  By comparison. the fertility rate for the U.S. is 1.79.I don’t understand why Balch thinks the “demographic transition' is a threat to 'human species survival' [183. 188].  Obviously. with over 8.3 billion people alive today. the world is not underpopulated.  Even those free societies with low birth rates can have growing populations as long as their freedom attracts immigrants.   That was Locke's argument for open borders and evolutionary group selection.Parents investing in a small number of children is a prudent reproductive strategy in certain ecological conditions.  It can be explained by an 'embodied capital theory of life history evolution' [Kim Hill and Hillard Kaplan].  There are many trade-offs in parental investment.  One of them is the tradeoff between the quantity of offspring [investing in a large number of offspring but with each receiving little investment] and the quality of children [investing in a lesser number of offspring but with each receiving a lot of investment].  In a bourgeois liberal society. many parents will choose quality over quantity.I see no evidence of any weakening in the natural desire for parental care in America or elsewhere.  The Pew Research Center has reported that the percentage of American women ages 40-44 who are mothers rose to 86% in 2016 from a low of 80% in 2006 and close to the high of 90% in 1976. Presumably. Balch would support governmental programs for raising fertility rates.  But there's no reason to believe that such programs work.  Strangely. he claims that Italian Fascism and German National Socialism were “genocratic utopias” in supporting ethnic genetic interests. as argued by Pierre Van Den Bergh and Frank Salter [57. 102. 133. 186].  But Salter has complained that the drop in the total fertility rate for native Germans continued under the Nazis. and that none of the “ethnic states” has ever raised the fertility of their ethnic group.  As I noted in a previous post. despite Victor Orban's vigorous 'pro-family' policies. Hungary still has one of the lowest fertility rates for any country.IS THE WELFARE STATE A NEW TAKING REGIME.Another way in which personal freedom subverts economic freedom. according to Balch. is through the expansion of the modern welfare state into a new kind of taking regime.  He worries about the ''taking-favoring' redistributive creeds like social democracy' that promote the modern welfare state.  He muses:The heightened power . . . that the 'world-made-safe-making' gave the propertyless led to a conceptual inversion. a means of preventing state redistribution become one for advancing and legitimating it.  The triumph of personhood over property secured slavery's demise. full equality of women and other historic achievements. but it also transformed property from the cynosure of freedom into a political parceled entitlement.. . .It's true. that unlike yesteryear. today's 'take' is not just for the mighty but widely distributed among [as well as taken from] all-and-sundry.  With votes to bestow on politicos. some of the masses have become net 'taking' winners. a plus perhaps in the scales of justice. if not necessarily for social productivity and individual autonomy [2014. 18].Against this. I have argued that a capitalist welfare state can be compatible with individual liberty in securing both personal freedom and economic freedom.  Here what I argue is similar to what Friedrich Hayek recommended in Part 3 of The Constitution of Liberty. which was entitled 'Freedom in the Welfare State.'The most extensive welfare states in Europe are in the Nordic social democracies--Denmark. Finland. Sweden. Norway. and Iceland.  Although they are sometimes identified as democratic socialist systems. they are not really socialist in any strict sense. Rather. these are all capitalist welfare states in that they combine social welfare programs with largely free-market capitalism.This is indicated by their Human Freedom Index rankings for Human Freedom [HF]. Personal Freedom [PF]. and Economic Freedom.                       HF    PF    EFDenmark         n2     n2    n9Finland           n7     n9    n15Iceland           n11   n11  n23Sweden          n12   n6    n35Norway         n16   n4    n48This compares favorably with the U.S.--n15 [HF]. n22 [PF]. and n5 [EF].With the possible exception of Norway. there does not seem to be any correlation between a high ranking for personal freedom and a low ranking for economic freedom.To me. this indicates that the capitalist welfare state belongs to the 'World Safe for Making.'  It is not a new taking regime. Tue, 07 Apr 2026 17:59:00 +0000 765db106db104a86d1d3ed5a0b1510c1d32a75f3 https://darwinianconservatism.blogspot.com/2026/04/makers-and-takers-in-paleolithic.html Libertarians and classical liberals have long argued for defending the makers who produce wealth from the takers who expropriate it [Contoski 1997. D'Amato 2018].  The makers need protection because for most of recorded human history over the past 5.000 years. most societies have been ruled by a few takers [kings. princes. nobles. and high priests] who coercively exploited the great multitude of people who were the makers of wealth that was stolen from them by the takers.  In these societies. there was little incentive for the makers to produce more than they could consume since most of what they produced would be taken from them. and consequently the general standard of living was low.  But then. beginning about 300 years ago in northwestern Europe and North America. there was a shift in social conditions that made the life strategy of making--producing wealth for use and exchange--more successful than the life strategy of taking--extracting wealth from others.  That shift in favor of making over taking came with the establishment of modern liberal constitutionalism and free-market capitalism.  Over the past 100 years those institutions of liberal democratic capitalism have spread around the world.  As a consequence of that. most of the 8.3 billion people alive today live longer. healthier. safer. richer. and freer lives than human beings have ever lived previously.  Previously. I have written about this as the 'evolution of human progress through the liberal enlightenment.So how do we explain this pattern in human history--5.000 years of oppression by the ruling elites of takers and then the sudden emancipation of makers that has promoted unprecedented material and moral progress recently for most of humanity.  And if we can explain the causes of that modern progress. how might that help us to prevent any weakening or even reversal of that progress that would allow the takers to regain their dominance over the makers.  Does the recent rise of the 'illiberal state'--like that of Viktor Orban in Hungary. for example--show the return of the illiberal 'taker state'.One of the best attempts to answer those questions is in the work of Stephen Balch [a scholar at Texas Tech University].  In an article [Balch 2014] and in a book that is soon to be published. he puts the history of the struggle between takers and makers within a Darwinian 'big history' that integrates the history of life and the history of humanity into a universal evolutionary history of all life.  It is an exhilarating display of expansive multidisciplinary scholarship that weaves insights from the life sciences. the social sciences. and the humanities into a dazzling intellectual tapestry that will forever change the way you think about life.I have not yet fully thought through everything he has written about what he calls his 'naturalist interpretation of history.'   But I understand enough of it to say that I find almost all of his arguments persuasive.  I do disagree with him. however. about four points. First. Balch fails to see that most of what he says about the universal history of politics--from Paleolithic stateless societies to Neolithic agrarian states to modern liberal constitutional states--confirms John Locke's account of the universal 'history of mankind.' Second. Balch also fails to see that the struggle between takers and makers arose first among Paleolithic hunter-gatherers. although he is certainly right in saying that that struggle was dramatically intensified by the invention of agriculture. which created an economic surplus that allowed takers to accumulate great wealth in the form of expropriated crops.  Third. in his account of the first agrarian states. such as those in Mesopotamia. Balch tends to exaggerate the invincible dominance of the ruling takers. while minimizing the power of the makers to resist or evade exploitative dominance.Fourth. I don't agree with Balch's claim that classical liberals like Locke have been mistaken in understanding property rights as an outgrowth of the personal rights of self-owning individuals.  Balch wants to separate economic freedom from personal freedom because he worries that personal freedom can include maladaptive behavior such as pursuing sexual pleasure in ways that do not lead to reproduction. which lowers reproductive fitness.  But here he fails to see that a low birth rate can be an adaptive reproductive strategy for people in wealthy societies who want to make a large parental investment in a few children. so that those children will be more likely to succeed in a modern bourgeois society.Here I will elaborate my second point of disagreement.  In my next post. I will take up the fourth point.PALEOLITHIC MAKERS AND TAKERSAmong hunter-gatherers. the takers are people who take without giving.  They take what they want from the social resources of their group without contributing anything to those resources: they are free riders or social parasites.  The takers are either cheaters who take what they want by deception. or bullies who take what they want by force.  The makers respond to this by consenting to moral rules against taking and enforcing those rules with reputational and forcible punishments of those who violate the rules.  Reputational punishment includes ridicule. ostracism. and shunning.  Forcible punishment--including execution--is directed against the worst bullies. particularly murderers [Boehm 2012. 64-74].Balch does not see this conflict between makers and takers among hunter-gatherers because he thinks that conflict arose only after the invention of agriculture.'Taking' only came fully into its own when there was some real 'take' to be had. when there was a redistributable surplus over and above what was required for individual survival.  The invention of agriculture set the stage.  Paleolithic hunter-gatherers lived egalitarian lives.  There was marginal advantage to be had through superior hunting/gathering/fighting/nurturing/negotiating and seduction skills. but--with only so much to go around--rarely big genetic jackpots.  Once. however. there was a possibility of massive wealth accumulations in the form of expropriated crops. all this changed [2014. 12].'Genetic jackpots' are important for Balch because he believes that the evolution of human nature by kin selection favors what biological theorists call 'inclusive fitness': we are naturally inclined to behaviors that advance the reproductive fitness of ourselves. our offspring. and our collateral relatives.  Although we experience some genetic conflicts of interest with our relatives because they are not genetically identical to us. our conflicts of interest with non-kin are much deeper.  We fight with non-kin over scarce resources as we try to take as much as we can for ourselves and our relatives.  But prior to the invention of agriculture. there wasn't much to fight over. and so it was impossible for the takers to accumulate great wealth that they had taken from the makers.  Consequently. Balch argues. Paleolithic hunter-gatherer bands were egalitarian in that there was no dominant elite of a few takers ruling over a multitude of exploited makers.But this ignores the fact that while hunter-gatherers have always been egalitarian. their societies have achieved not an absolute equality but rather--to use Christopher Boehm's term--an 'egalitarian hierarchy.'  As that term suggests. hunter-gatherers see that human beings are not naturally equal in all respects. because no two human beings are the same in all respects.  By virtue of being separate individuals. human beings are naturally unequal. in any number of respects.  But they are naturally equal in their natural desire for equal liberty--their natural freedom from being ruled by others without their consent.  A few human beings have a natural desire for dominance--to be the alpha male who rules over others--and these are those whom Balch identifies as the takers.  And while human beings in subordinate positions are naturally inclined to defer to the dominant few. the subordinates are also naturally inclined to resist being exploited by those dominant few.  Thus. Boehm observes. the political nature of human beings is ambivalent in showing the tension between dominance. deference. and counter-dominance.  The natural desire for dominance can be checked by the natural desire of subordinates not to be dominated.In an egalitarian hierarchy. the subordinates use sanctions--such as ridicule. disobedience. ostracism. or even execution--to restrain politically ambitious individuals. those with special innate or learned propensities to dominate.  In every society. there will be leaders in some form.  But an egalitarian hierarchical society will allow only a moderate degree of leadership.  Here the power of the takers is checked by the resistance of the makers.In a few passages of his book. Balch seems to recognize this.  In speaking about how Boehm and Richard Wrangham describe the hunter-gatherer 'environment of evolutionary adaptation' [EEA]. Balch sees “a strain of oligarchy” and “targeted conspiratorial killing.' which points to egalitarian hierarchy and the conditions for some taker/maker conflict.  He suggests that when he says that the worst bullies had to be eliminated [59. 126-27]. and “the tension between hierarchical power and leveling morality has been a constant of human history” [129]. Moreover. what Balch calls “primal morality” in the EEA corresponds to what Locke calls the “law of nature” in the hunter-gatherer state of nature [60. 126-29. 218-19].  Locke’s law of nature is enforced by the “executive power of the law of nature”—the right of everyone to punish transgressors through reputational and forcible punishment. which would be supported by Boehm and Wrangham.  What Boehm and Wrangham say about killing bullies in the EEA confirms Paul Bingham’s argument about the importance of “killing from a distance” in enforcing cooperation.REFERENCESBalch.

However. now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change. where different. smarter. and less radicalized minds prevail. maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen. WHO KNOWS.We will find out tonight. one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion. corruption. and death. will finally end.

Namely. Americans make up only about 4% of the global population. but consume approximately 30% of the world's resources. This massive discrepancy means that every American gets 7-8 times more than what they need. Meanwhile. billions around the world struggle in abject poverty. crushed by the weight of chains of Western [neo]colonialism. The primary tool of this deeply inhumane system is precisely the petrodollar. Not only does the US-led political West rob the world of its riches. but it also uses the dollar to strangle any opposition through sanctions. Naturally. sovereign nations seek alternatives. mainly by using other currencies. However. when they also have ample natural resources. this inevitably undermines the petrodollar.'---DEAGEL REPORT II'Six years ago the likelihood of a major war was tiny. Since then it has grown steadily and dramatically and today is by far the most likely major event in the 2020s. The ultimate conflict can come from two ways. A conventional conflict involving at least two major powers that escalates into an open nuclear war. A second scenario is possible in the 2025-2030 timeframe. If there is not a dramatic change of course the world is going to witness the first nuclear war. The Western block collapse may come before. during or after the war. It does not matter. A nuclear war is a game with billions of casualties and the collapse plays in the hundreds of millions.'https://web.archive.org/web/20210515081613/https://www.sgtreport.com/2021/05/deagel-is-gone-now-wiped-off-the-internet-what-happened-their-warning-about-the-culling-of-the-western-world-by-2025-was-too-close-for-comfort-to-the-globalists/--The Ten Principles of Intuitive Eatinghttps://www.intuitiveeating.org/about-us/10-principles-of-intuitive-eating/I lost 30 pounds by 1.

I was interested to find this list of loves and hates. I've changed my mind on many of them. while with others I feel exactly the same today.First. I listed the hate. Comments from Present Me in italics.1] Travel bores. No change.2] Travel-writers/writing. No change.3] People who dilly-dally in queues. No change.4] People who walk slowly in front of you in a narrow passage-way. No change.5] Sideways [movie]. I was too hard on this. It wasn't a bad movie. I just found its cult irritating.6] Shrek [movie]. I can't even remember why I put this on the list.7] People using “oh” when they mean “zero” or “nought”. No change.8] Bob Dylan. I'm not sure why I put Bob Dylan down. Probably. again. because of his cult. I don't know a lot of his songs even today. but the ones I know. I like. And he seems like a good guy.9] Republicans/Unionists. I've completely changed my mind about this. If republican means 'res publica' [the common good]. I consider myself a republican. and even an Irish republican-- despite my fondness for monarchy. As for the unionists. I've come to greatly admire them for their loyalty to their heritage. Basically. in our socially atomised and banalised society. I tend to admire anyone who cares about heritage or national loyalty.10] Robert de Niro. I don't have strong feelings about him now and wonder why I put him on the list.11] Jack Nicholson. I've come to like him a lot.12] Sneering. mean-spirited humour. no matter how funny. Prime example: The Simpsons. I still hold by the principle. although I would no longer accuse the Simpsons of this.13] Anti-semitism posing as liberalism. I still hate anti-semitism. but I've also become wary of accusing anyone of prejudice-- it's such an easy charge to make. and such promiscuous accusations are the bread and butter of political correctness/woke.14] Most of the poetry of Dylan Thomas. I no longer feel so strongly about this. and I wonder why I ever felt strongly enough to put it on the list.15] Parents who let their children run in the supermarket. I've changed my mind about this. I still find it irritating. but childhood obesity has become such a problem that I can't find it in my heart to complain about children running.16] Anti-Englishness. I've become a lot more tolerant of this. i'm an anglophile all the way through. but national prejudices make the world more interesting-- if they don't got too far.17] Church-bashing. Well. I still hate this. though I might be indulgent in particular cases. This was written when I was an agnostic.18] People who exaggerate their Dublin accents to sound more street-wise/tough/working-class. I've become more tolerant of this. Insofar as it adds to local distinctiveness. it's good.19] People who pull you up for saying “tomorrow” when. for example. you refer to Wednesday afternoon as tomorrow at 1:30 a.m. on Wednesday morning. I would find this to be an amusing quirk today.20] Confrontational people. I still feel this way-- mostly-- but sometimes confrontation is admirable.21] Studied bohemianism. Again. I would find this more endearing than annoying today-- anything that adds to the colour of life.22] Post-modernism. post-structuralism. post-colonialism. New Historicism etc. I've come to think that postmodernism has something going for and is. to some extent. a genuine description of a cultural and social phenomenon. The rest is all nonsense. Mostly endearing nonsense. but post-colonialism feeds into the 'sacred victim' and 'oppressor-oppressed' menatality that has wreacked havoic in our world.23] Lotteries. I still feel the same way.25] Cars. I've completely changed my mind on this one. and I've come to see the romance of cars.26] The servility of dogs. in contrast to the dignity of cats. Honestly. this baffles me. I like both dogs and cats. and loyalty is probably the virtue I admire the most. This must have been a temporary hang-up.I followed this up with a list of things I loved. Again. I add comments in italics.1] Poetry of W.B. Yeats. No change.2] Poetry of Philip Larkin. No change.3] Quentin Tarantino movies. No change. although I didn't like Django Unchained. and I haven't loved his later works as much as I did everything up to Kill Bill.4] The cinema in general. No change.5] Snow. No change.6] Horror movies/books. No change.7] The students in UCD. No change.8] Spaghetti Bolognese. No change. although it's been overtaken by steak and chips as my favourite meal.9] Winter and Autumn. esp. October. No change.10] Train stations. No change.11] The English language. No change.12] Englishness in general. No change.13] Jewish culture in general. No change. although I'm less confident I have any real knowledge of it.14] Led Zeppelin. No change.15] The Victorian Era. No change.16] The King James Bible. No change.17] The sea. Who doesn't love the sea. But I admit I sometimes find it dispiriting. in certain circumstances. I've lived five minutes from the sea for the last few years.18] Evocative phrases like “The cold light of day”. “All human life is there”. “Softly-falling snow” and many. many others. No change. Although I've come to realize that getting overly excited about this doesn't get a good reaction in some social situations.19] Darkness. No change.20] Billboards. especially glowing billboards on a lonely night. No change.21] Tea. No change. although to be honest I drink coffee more.22] Puns. especially excruciatingly bad ones. No change. 23] Silence and quiet. I'm surprised to see this here. Who doesn't love a bit of silence and quiet now and then. But personally. I much prefer a good bit of noise and activity around me.
