For those of you who haven't already seen this, I have to admit, it's quite clever regardless of your beliefs.

Is Obama A Fairy Godmother Or Fairy Hitman?
And with a swoosh of his magic wand-pen, all people can FINALLY execute their military missions without the huge burden of maintaining personal privacy. Thank you Fairy GodObama. This is such a milestone for humanity. To think how improved military missions will be now that people can openly proclaim their preferences of penile insertion and vaginal stimulation. AWESOME and oh so important to the job of defending our country.
I shake my head at this high school drama playing out before me. Are adults in our society so desperate for affirmation that they will settle for some piece of paper decreeing their personal lives are valid and worthy of announcing such to the immediate world? Next thing you know, Michelle Obama will tell us that as First Lady, she feels she can only fulfill her duties by letting us all know she prefers bedding Obama on top with arugula on the side. Since when exactly did a person's private sex acts define their ability to be a soldier, a teacher, a Senator, a First Lady?
The juvenile rationale for this whole crap about serving openly gay is almost laughable if it weren't so serious for a myriad of reasons. First and foremost, where does being openly gay fit within a combat setting, on foreign soil where civil rights are non-existent? When the first openly gay soldier is taken prisoner and asked if he is a homosexual, will he be copping to the classification of "gay and proud" then?
The reality is, no openly gay personnel will be assigned to combat. That deal was worked out long ago. However, the fact remains, for our enemy, whether gays in the military are in battle or behind a desk is irrelevant and serves yet as another tool for them in recruiting young Islamist followers in their cause against the GREAT SATAN. Already the Islamist websites are using acceptance of gays in our military to point out America's debauchery, lack of God's law and poisoned culture that must be defeated at all costs.
What sort of cultural victory has the repeal of DADT truly resulted in? If the defining aspect of a person and their ability to pursue their career hinges on everyone's knowledge regarding the way they achieve the momentary effect of an orgasm, I suggest that individual has not emotionally matured past adolescence and shouldn't be driving a bus let alone wielding a firearm in combat.
Much like the teens on Facebook who document every moment of their lives by tweets, profile updates and instant uploads of digital pictures featuring important subjects like picking their noses and feces shaped like Italy, the willingness to relinquish all personal privacy to the world is stunning.
One has to wonder why the government is so keen on folks openly admitting their sexual practices? Are the Socialists in our government, the people bent on a Utopian society, truly interested in promoting the validity of a gay lifestyle or is this some other means to a yet undefined end? In all of the socialist, nationalist societies prior to Obama, the weeding out of deviants and the less productive members of the regimes own ranks were the first order of business upon coming to power.
Could all this celebration of "sexual transparency" be just a tool to identify the "problems" within their ranks at a later date? This is exactly what happened in Russia. Homosexuality was decriminalized after the fall of the Czar only to be RE-criminalized under Joseph Stalin who also saw to it that abortion was criminalized as well. Stalin said homosexuality was a far-right conspiracy even though the Communist Revolution "supported" homosexual rights in the beginning. The sentence for having same-sex relations under Stalin was hard labor of at least 5 years. These laws stayed on the books in Russia until the fall of the USSR. And the dude hanging on Obama's Christmas tree, sweet, kind, old Mao Tse Tung wasn't a big fan of same-sex stuff either.
So as the gays in the military celebrate their new found public persona, I caution all about your Fairy Godmother. This may be trite, but it is a saying that too often is right...Be Careful What You Wish For. And even more careful whom it is granting it.

Being Openly Gay In The Military Does Not Equal Being Happy
Keeping up with liberal societal demands and politically correct mores is so difficult. Women in the military are not to be distinguished as "female" soldiers. They put their lives on the line just like their male counterparts and want to be addressed simply as "soldier", no gender recognition, please! But if you are sexually attracted to your own gender then by all means, scream it from the rooftops...Gay soldier, gay soldier, gay soldier... at ease, Ms. Thing.
This whole false issue regarding gays in the military is not about fairness. It is about diluting the effectiveness of our National Defense. The left lives in the strangest world where constant self-contradictions really don't matter. For instance, the left has professors in college classrooms declaring the power of human sexuality, how its effects on our actions and focus are overwhelming and most importantly, involuntary.
I once had a professor show the class a still shot of an attractive girl just sitting there expressionless. He asked students in the room to raise their hands if they found her physically pleasing. Everyone, male and female, raised their hands. Then he asked if anyone was sexually aroused. One guy's hand shot up to a roar of laughter.
Next he showed a video of the same girl simply brushing her hair. She was not doing it in any sort of seductive manner. Her expression remained neutral as she simply sat there brushing her long dark hair. The professor asked if anyone now was sexually aroused. Several male students hesitantly raised their hands. The video went from the girl with a neutral expression to the girl smiling as she brushed her hair. More hands went up, including the professor's!
He apologized for only stimulating the male segment of the class but his point was that the physical reactions to human sexual attraction are totally involuntary, proving the reason why sex sells. Sexual attraction captivates your attention and takes you to another part of your brain without any effort or control on your part.
Before that experience I didn't KNOW males could be aroused by something as mundane as brushing my hair. I will admit after that I never brushed my hair in public again. The mere thought of some strange man having an involuntary sexual response to a non-sexual action truly grossed me out as a young woman. Now I just laugh at how easily distracted males are by sex.
So, if I'm to take that liberal educator seriously, how can I honestly expect individuals to serve side by side in dangerous situations and deal effectively with physical reactions they have no control over? In fact, if you've been a human being for any stretch of time (that means you liberals too), you will know that when a person "catches your eye" your focus, no matter what you are doing, changes. Any traffic cop will attest to the fact that a large number of male drivers in single car accidents are caused by the male watching some girl walk down the street instead of focusing on driving.
On the other side of the gender spectrum, I've witnessed girls basketball teams completely come unraveled when their male classmates show up to watch them play in a game. The boys' presence made the girls so nervous that a usually rock solid team became a bunch of fumbling, bumbling, giggling twits. The amazing part was that none of the boys who came were love interests of any of the girls on the team. They didn't have to be, the mere fact the girls knew these potential dates were there to observe them was enough to put the girls heads everywhere but the game.
Fact: Human sexuality plays a part on one's ability to focus no matter what your orientation. If someone who is known to be sexually attracted to "your kind" is present, the dynamics change ever so slightly. In a combat situation, slightly matters.
Beyond this basic truth about human sexuality, what sort of person signs up voluntarily for the military in order to express their individuality? Did you not get the memo? Military service is not a career in the arts. It's a mission that specifically requires all prospective soldiers to check their individuality at the door. If a straight person enters the military demanding to leave their hair long and wear t shirts with slogans they personally believe in instead of the uniform fatigues because "that is who they are", they'd be booted out the door day one.
Recently a long serving soldier was indicted for not following orders and sentenced to three years in jail. He refused to report for duty based on his personal belief that President Obama has not proven that he is an American citizen. Under that belief, this career soldier did not see Obama's presidential order for him to return to Afghanistan as valid.
Sorry dude, you are in the military, an order is an order and that is what you signed up for. Your personal doubts about Obama's birthplace is not up for discussion in a military setting. This soldier was expressing his political orientation yet his expression was rightly squelched. As a private citizen he can think what he wants but as a soldier in the United States Military, such personal expressions are detrimental to military morale and chain of command.
Gay soldiers have been in the military since such service began. Those that serve without needing the acknowledgement of their sexual orientation are the people who truly understand and respect the military mission. That is why Don't Ask, Don't Tell is legitimate and fair. The gay soldiers, however, who feel their mode of sexual act defines them to such an extent that it must be made known to all around them strike me as people with an agenda other than military mission success.
And what about the left constantly concerned about how we are viewed by the Muslim world? Last time I checked, being gay is a grave sin within the tenets of Islam. Muslims do not believe a person is born gay, they chose it. In Iran, homosexuals are routinely executed. I guess that is why Ahmadinejad so confidently proclaimed that they have no homosexual problem in Iran because they don't have homosexuals there. You got that right Ahmie!
And so the left trumps up this issue of supporting gay soldiers to serve openly as homosexuals with zero concern how the Muslim world will percieve this? The left made sure female soldiers did not oversee the prisoners at Gitmo because having a woman oversee them was a personal affront to them. Will the left see to it no gay soldiers oversee Muslim war prisoners as well? Which side of that one will you chose oh all-knowing Marxist goons?
The left is very sensitive to how our military behaves within the Muslim culture, except, I guess when it comes to acts considered by Muslims as sexually deviant and evil. With this issue, the left brazenly ignores Muslim sensibilities because at the end of the day, the left could care less about Muslim sensibilities unless those sensibilities play into the Marxist goal of weakening America. Intellectual consistency is not the left's forte and neither is their loyalty to the Islamic world or gays for that matter.
All things considered, openly gay American military soldiers will result in either morale problems in combat units or an unwritten rule that the openly gay soldiers do not get assigned to combat situations. As long as the United States Military is a volunteer force, the issue of openly gay soldiers serving is an intellectually dishonest, political leftist ploy meant to harm the United States Military, not enhance it. That's not pro-gay, that's just sad.

How Liberal Cable Food Shows Can Save The Lives Of Endangered Capitalist Pigs
I took a break the other day from the rush of holiday preparations, Christmas choir performances and high school basketball games to simply chill and watch an innocuous food show. I usually tune into some form of cable news but I'd had it with the Lame Duck Congress chatter and decided to hear about duck con fit and pancake batter instead.
I can't remember if it was a Travel Channel show or Food Network but the topic was the popular trend of Roach Coach food (as I call it). The show profiled all the different food truck vendors who race around urban centers, developing a loyal following as they offer up some amazingly inventive and apparently profitable edibles. Though the vendor's politics were not declared outright, the code words and homage given to our current Commander In Chief, made it clear these were young liberal adults long educated under the Marxist philosophy of Utopia Starts With "U". Little do they realize the correct spelling is Youtopia and it actually begins with "Y"...would you willingly become a slave to the state?
Each young entrepreneurial idealist related their story of how they took their high level college degrees in finance, computer engineering and other obscenely expensive liberal arts endeavors and chucked them out the window for a chance to be in charge of their own destiny. Hmmm, funny their tenure-soaked college professors didn't mention this option before the tuition checks were all cashed.
One young man, almost giddy with glee, admitted he now spends close to 80 hours a week working in his food wagon, going on to clarify that it's a much more rewarding, fulfilling endeavor than that 40 hour-a-week office-Hell he left behind. He boldly declared he would never go back. Good for him! And actually, VERY good for us.
As I was pleased to hear the spirit of individualism still managing to exist in the hearts of those whose heads have been so thoroughly conditioned with the false realities of social justice, I had to chuckle with pity at these young unwitting individualists still attempting to please the masters of their empty ideology. To a fault, each made a case for their obliging the rules of the new society by proclaiming the healthy, fresh ingredients they proudly serve up to the masses at reasonable prices.
I'm sorry, but from what I saw going on in those trucks of good taste, Empress Michelle would never approve of the deep frying techniques, use of real butter and the much too generous portion sizes under her unquestionable rules of food rationing, no matter how much arugula you put on the side.
The day will come and I believe soon, when these young idealists will recognize who they really are, the offspring of pioneers and free citizens, not the spawn of lowly worker bee serfs. The veil of social engineering for the greater good will be lifted and these young Americans will then understand the warped realities they've been fed by tainted textbooks, patronizing professors and the lying bastards better known as progressive politicians (both on the right and left).
These callow "Yes We Can"ers will soon encounter the regulations of a socialist utopia that is sure to limit their menus, restrict their fuel allowances, increase their taxes, impose higher license fees, and wreck their dreams, rendering the operation of their business, regulation by regulation, an impossibility. Of course, our benevolent government may well put them out of their business mercifully quick by squashing their innovations in one legislative swoop.
Seriously, what's to stop our "know-what's-best-for-you" government from banning all street food, period? Just like the once dependable fundraiser of the school bake sale and the standard first taste of entrepreneurial bliss, the neighborhood lemonade stand, in places famous for their allegiance to Michellism, government entities have deemed both practices too dangerous, too self-enterprising and too FUN to expose society-at-large to.
Heaven forbid if any of our young liberal food pushing entrepreneurs give a toy away with their Mexican/Fusion Asian-vibed pulled pork rib burgers on the whole wheat bun! Why, that's certainly grounds for child abuse in our new, improved, ivy-leagued approved socialist state. Remember, introducing the concept of homosexuality to kindergartners in the classroom is fine. In fact, it's the humane thing to do but don't you DARE give those impressionable tots a toy with their non-state sanctioned rationed sustenance.
It's this sort of idiocy that is catching up to the messaging of the left. The reality of leftist doctrines use to have a big enough lag time that we all could take a step back from our capitalist vantage point on the hill with little recognition of where we actually stood. Now however, with each step back, there's a noticeable shadow being cast, the shadow of the wall of Marxist "social good". It use to be a wall far in the distance but now we are close enough that it's height is blocking out the sun. More and more of us realize with each step back, our land of individual freedom has been eroding beneath our feet.
We're at a very pivotal point now. We''ve backed far enough that there's barely a ledge left to stand on. Our back is up against the wall of Marxist thought. The tree of liberty is next to us on this eroding cliff but it's roots are now exposed and things are not looking good. We either go through the socialist gate in the wall and join the One World Land on the other side where personal property, personal responsibility, personal innovation and dreams are non-existent, or somehow utilize our tree of Liberty and construct a bridge, build a signal fire or swing from its branches back to the original land of Freedom we've been backing away from for several generations.
Many are saying it is inevitable that America will morph into socialism...that due to the predictions of chaos and economic troubles coming, the populace will cry out for government to save them. Some say Capitalism will cease to exist in America within my lifetime. I absolutely do not agree, and the liberal food truck, granola crunching, dream following, Obama-loving American youth are why.
I believe there will always be those souls who do need an outside entity to lead them through the stages of their lives, who for one reason or another, perhaps a lack of intelligence, personal will, or possibly genetics, that deem these creatures incapable of survival by their own wits. I witness the actions of the youths of Europe and I believe they have no innate desire to determine their own destiny. I believe they have no confidence in their own abilities or those of their peers to make it on their own. I believe they depend on the Government for their education, their livelihood, their determination of self-worth. I believe this mindset is so deep seeded within their makeup that, though it pains me to say, based on the profile of their youth, I don't have much hope for the population of Europe to escape the trap of socialism within my lifetime.
America however, is a different story. No other country in the history of man has had such a concentration of individualists come together and build a society like the one forged in the first 100 years of the United States of America. That spirit, though currently masked by materialism and trendy feel-good vapid liberal ideals, is still there in the blood of our people. There is no other land where oppressed people with the necessary personal drive gene literally risk their lives to this day to come here. Unlike China, whose people as a whole have never known personal freedom, there are simply too many young idealistic food truck owners, new immigrants and old conservatives that will never take that last step backward, through the gate of socialism and live on the other side of the Marxist wall.
It is true, our youth may ignorantly wear Che shirts and vote for a man who not only has a weak personal history but next to no knowledge of the history forged by the great country he now attempts to govern. This is all an unfortunate reality but there remains the fortunate reality that the leftist brain trust is forgetting. True, American youth are easily led via false compliments and by playing off the guilt of their privileged existences but at the end of the day, I truly believe the bulk of misguided American youth will part ways with their European counterparts due to what all Americans have in their bellies, the desire to chart their own destiny.
Like the young liberal food truck owner who tasted the shackles of a paper-pushing, "yes sir, Boss", 40-hour-a-week paycheck and spit it out to take a bite out of a self-determined, 80-hour-work-week slathered in personal satisfaction, this same mindset, that of the American pioneer, will ultimately resist the enslavement of socialism and build that bridge back to our birthright, the land of freedom, the land of the individual, the land of the Fat, Happy, 80-hour-a-week-working, perpetually innovative, Capitalist Pig.
Not only will America's Capitalist Pigs survive, I believe they will in fact, sprout wings and fly, reaching greater heights than we ever dreamed. And with that, I say OINK to the People!!!

I believe there will always be those souls who do need an outside entity to lead them through the stages of their lives, who for one reason or another, perhaps a lack of intelligence, personal will, or possibly genetics, that deem these creatures incapable of survival by their own wits. I witness the actions of the youths of Europe and I believe they have no innate desire to determine their own destiny. I believe they have no confidence in their own abilities or those of their peers to make it on their own. I believe they depend on the Government for their education, their livelihood, their determination of self-worth. I believe this mindset is so deep seeded within their makeup that, though it pains me to say, based on the profile of their youth, I don't have much hope for the population of Europe to escape the trap of socialism within my lifetime.
America however, is a different story. No other country in the history of man has had such a concentration of individualists come together and build a society like the one forged in the first 100 years of the United States of America. That spirit, though currently masked by materialism and trendy feel-good vapid liberal ideals, is still there in the blood of our people. There is no other land where oppressed people with the necessary personal drive gene literally risk their lives to this day to come here. Unlike China, whose people as a whole have never known personal freedom, there are simply too many young idealistic food truck owners, new immigrants and old conservatives that will never take that last step backward, through the gate of socialism and live on the other side of the Marxist wall.
It is true, our youth may ignorantly wear Che shirts and vote for a man who not only has a weak personal history but next to no knowledge of the history forged by the great country he now attempts to govern. This is all an unfortunate reality but there remains the fortunate reality that the leftist brain trust is forgetting. True, American youth are easily led via false compliments and by playing off the guilt of their privileged existences but at the end of the day, I truly believe the bulk of misguided American youth will part ways with their European counterparts due to what all Americans have in their bellies, the desire to chart their own destiny.
Like the young liberal food truck owner who tasted the shackles of a paper-pushing, "yes sir, Boss", 40-hour-a-week paycheck and spit it out to take a bite out of a self-determined, 80-hour-work-week slathered in personal satisfaction, this same mindset, that of the American pioneer, will ultimately resist the enslavement of socialism and build that bridge back to our birthright, the land of freedom, the land of the individual, the land of the Fat, Happy, 80-hour-a-week-working, perpetually innovative, Capitalist Pig.
Not only will America's Capitalist Pigs survive, I believe they will in fact, sprout wings and fly, reaching greater heights than we ever dreamed. And with that, I say OINK to the People!!!

Student Protesters Earn An F In Comprehension
A ten foot sign proclaims, WE ARE NOT YOUR SLAVES. My dear callow, nanny-state-loving youths, that's exactly what you are. In fact, the more you push for the warped ideals of socialism, the thicker the shackles, the shorter the chain.
One peruses the leftist websites and the common opinion is clear, China's system is the goal of today's young socialists. These very student protesters throwing tantrums, demanding services, actually think they are being cheated out of an education by the government. They've been cheated out of an education, alright, an education based in reality and the way a society succeeds through individual innovation.
STUDENTS! What exactly have you been studying? Try pulling this stunt in your beloved China where a student protester would be lucky if they were jailed for the next 30 years. Assuming they weren't shot on the spot, they'd be denied anything resembling a book to read during their detainment. Study would be replaced with hard labor and no nice, comfortable dorm room but plenty of room mates to be sure.
And what about the Chinese students who do as they are told and submit to the system? Do you really think a Chinese student has the luxury of picking their field of study? Do you really think a Chinese student has access to ideas about liberty and free thought? Do you really think the Chinese government gives a crap if you peons don't want to be slaves?
STUDENTS! Quit falling for the false compliments your reality-incompetent professors hand you. I heard the same tripe 25 years ago from the social misfit, Mao-loving, mental-midget educators who depend on self-centered, over-indulged, intellectually stunted, Western youths to do their bidding.
They shower you with concocted praise, pretending to elevate you above all non-academic adults, placing you at their feet in the tower of KNOW-IT-ALL U. They promise to pass the baton of power on to you as long as you join them in the quest of the great society where the dumb will be taken care of and the intellectually elite will rule. Little do you know that the "dumb" is actually you, the student. Boy, will you be taken care of!
Here's a couple basic facts the youth of our world need to realize about an all providing Government: Such a Government is not capable of providing life. Such a Government is capable of providing death. Government sees people as masses not as individuals. Government provides at the lowest quality of services for the most amount of humans. Government will take more power from an individual, never less. Government will reduce the human population to the most controllable levels for the Government. Government's greatest threat is a thinking human. Government must control all information passed amongst the masses. Government can not allow for subversive thought to exist.
Masters provide, slaves accept. As long as one's hand is out, one remains submissive no matter how loud one stomps and screams. To be free of bondage, the slaves must reverse the flow of provision and acceptance.
The material giver will always rule the material taker. This concept is foreign to today's youth. They literally can not comprehend this truth. And so the youths of Britain kick, scream, demand for the evil-Nanny Government to educate them further into dependence and mediocrity as the Chinese Government smiles.

Julian May Have A Leakey Wiki But It's Not All His Fault
The charges being brought against Julian Assange are ridickulous but at the very least, poetic. To think, the world's whistle blower, infamous for leaking potentially potent secrets is now in custody for leaking apparently impotent secretions from his own whistle. The irony is stunning. Shakespeare, eat your heart out!
The truly important symbolism does not stop there. If America's security secrets are that vital and that precious, why would we set them up to be so easily tapped into? Why? Because America has morphed into nothing better than some left wing, psuedo-intellectual, phony feminist, tramp. With the reign of Obama we began behaving internationally just like the two idiots now claiming rape against the drippy geek they both willingly dropped their drawers for.
Julian Assange may well be responsible for the actual "act" but it's the slutty behavior and lack of personal responsibility that got us all here, including the two "ladies". The fact is, the American chain of command sent our most valuable secrets to the party wearing a mini skirt and thong rather than a knee-length dress and chastity belt. Why aren't there a slew of American military and other political leaders with their wrists in cuffs for this? There should be! The mere fact some dufus Private could down load what he did in the manner he did it is the truly criminal act.
America has lost it's sense of personal responsibility, replacing it with a false sense of approval awarded via meaningless Nobel Prizes and empty treaties with countries sensing our lack of self-respect. Our country is no better than the two women who trot the globe calling themselves feminists, champion leftist causes as they claim superior ideals over the dumb masses. Yet both "smart, savvy, worldly, feminists end up banged by some loser just like the uneducated trailer park waitress they despise and mock.
These two Marxist mavens put out for a fellow lefty who uses them like meat and now they regret it? Wow, that's progress! How far the feminist movement has brought women, just like all leftist theories, they forget that human beings are the ones who are suppose to implement these Utopian lifestyles...GOOD LUCK FOOLS!
So here we are, trying to trump up charges against a low-life Internet worm who was even less well known than Obama three years ago yet this leftist weasel (I'm referring to Assange not Obama) can hold the world hostage with the threat of screwing us all because America chose to give away her common sense dignity for the cheap title of socialist party girl.
I am not blaming the victim here. A victim is someone who is attacked without warning and without any means to have averted the attack. Just like the two spreaders in Sweden, we saw Assange and any other of his ilk coming down the path years ago but did nothing but invite him in and rub up against his leg. Our National Security secrets should have been ironclad instead we practically begged Fate to take advantage. And Fate obliged.
Bottom line, Assange is an attention-seeking soul with bad intentions. He is not a heroic do-gooder with the admirable goal of exposing the corruption of the world. If that had been his real motive, he would have revealed all the evils as soon as possible regardless of his own fate for the world's benefit. Instead, he's dribbled bit by bit, which up to this date really hasn't lived up to the promises. He claims to have bombshells capable of taking down the world's infrastructure. If so, is that the way to fix the world? I thought the left was all about reform not execution?
I think Assange is a sad little man with an enormous need to be powerful and important. He may well have a bombshell. Then again, like the wads he shot with the disgruntled groupies, it could be nothing but blanks. I'd prefer not to find out. Instead, I'd like President Obama to quit living out his personal Marxist fantasy and start protecting America's interests the way he protects his own college transcripts!
On second thought, maybe that's what is in Assange's leaks? Hmmmm.

If It Weren't For God We'd Be Perfect Already!
With the discovery of an arsenic eating life form, the blogosphere is all abuzz declaring this finding once and for all proves there is NO GOD. The NO GOD chorus was tuning up anyway since it's the Christmas season. That's what they do this time of year to promote world harmony. But this little alien microbe has them singing louder than ever before.
Somehow, the NO GOD folks conflate this finding with the "in my image" statement, finding the one as disproof of the other. First, the "in my image" part doesn't refer to physical make up, it's man's ability to think and reason that is in God's image but whatever, if this arsenic-munching bug makes the NO GOD folks happy, all I can THINK is, that's Humanist REASON for the Season.
Regardless of their glee, Humanists are still in denial about the truth. Not about whether God exists, which is unprovable, but with their misdirected blame on religion and God for not only hampering man's advancements but truly being the cause of all wars and destruction. While some ask what planet the arsenic binging bugs are from, I want to know what spaceship dropped these "Humanists" here? Do they know what "human" means?
God, religion, guns, drugs, Capitalism, even Satan and Communism, all the main scapegoats for man's failings, ARE NOT TO BLAME for where we are, or aren't. If I could take a magic wand and erase all these concepts, forces and items from human existence but left man with the same brain and coded drives we all share, I dare say, we'd be at best, in the same place, more likely worse than we are today.
The truth is, Humanists don't have a problem with God, they have a problem with their fellow human. And one can't get more human than that! In the guise of wanting harmony through intellectual thought, the Humanists only add to the din of conflict around the world. In their attempt to prove the backwardness of all people who "believe the myth" the Humanists claim religion impedes science. None of us wants that! We all know that science is the key to improving man's existence.
Apparently Humanists don't know or want to know that many Christians, even those especially backward ones called Catholics are the "Fathers" of such areas of science as Modern Chemistry, Modern Algebra, Modern Atomic Theory, and many others. They obviously are not aware that 35 craters on the moon are named after Jesuit priests who furthered modern science with their findings and that thousands of Catholic scientists have and are advancing man's knowledge in all areas of science to this day. FYI: http://www.catholiclab.net/TheCatholicLaboratory/About_Us.html .
Humanists go on to blame all wars on religion. In my opinion, this is a false argument. A belief system does not cause destruction from conflict, MAN who hides behind religion causes destruction from conflict. If it isn't religion, it's Ford vs Chevy, Betty Crocker opposed to Duncan Hines, over-the-top toilet paper hangers against from-the-back-of-the-roll toilet paper hangers. Man will seek an issue to align against another man, no matter what.
Are humans doomed to always be in conflict? Yes, it's the way we are designed (or spontaneously hard-wired by pure chance out of thin air). But conflict does not have to be destructive or disrespectful. Along with our argumentative nature, we have the power to control our behavior and conduct ourselves in a civil, respectful manner. Agree to disagree, heard of it?
However, our friends, the Humanists, do not want anyone, anywhere, celebrating the Birth of Christ publicly, never, ever...for the rest of time...that means forever. To them, I pose the argument that the worship of secularism goes on daily throughout the year. I am assaulted routinely by slogans, signs, public practices that fly in the face of my personal values. That is life. I get it.
The daily brainwashing of secularism is one I've learned to exist with. In spite of the overwhelming volume of these beliefs and practices forced upon me, I see a way I can live amongst this while staying true to my chosen values and faith.
One would think eleven months domination of the public square would be sufficient for the NO GOD crowd. Apparently if one's message is sketchy, it means NO HOLIDAYS, especially during the HOLY DAYS.
My dear Humanists, scream all you want against God if it makes you feel better. He can certainly take it. Like the old Hollywood adage, doesn't matter what they say about you, as long as they're saying something.
And I'm confident, regardless of naysayers, Jews will celebrate Hanukkah and Christians, like me, will merrily celebrate Christmas with family, some old friends, and in my case, some new friends, who strangely requested I add an arsenic dish to the menu (must be lactose intolerant).

Independent? Co-Dependent?
The idea of dividing the human condition into two categories is never a smart thing to do. There are infinite variables that influence what life philosophy each person subscribes to and in 99.99% of the cases, a person follows some combination of any number of philosophies concurrently. Having said that, I will tap into my "Marxist side" and boldly assign all people into one of two camps; Independents and Co-Dependents.
Each of these types have two subsets within them. The Independents are made up of Leaders and Supporters. The Leaders are those in the Independent society who have been successful in their particular goal. They serve as examples and inspiration to those individuals (Supporters) who are in the process of goal pursuit. The benefits between the relationship of Leaders and Supporters go both directions. The Supporters provide the Leaders the much needed aspect to all individuals who want to continue to grow, that being competition. The Old Pro always relishes the challenge from the Young Up and Comer.
Though Leaders are people who have proven their talents and succeeded in their field, the Independent society believes all people need to be pushed to their limits the span of one's lifetime. No person in an Independent society rests on their laurels. In fact, any one individual can serve as Leader and Supporter any number of times within their life, making each person's experience perpetually in flux while putting the entire society continually headed in a forward momentum. Such a society promotes the freedom of all to pursue the goals of their choice with no guarantee of success or failure rather focusing on the actual pursuit as the source of an individual's true fulfillment.
For an Independent society, Capitalism as it's economic model, is a reasonably good fit when matched with a small central government, a larger local government, both answering to the people they serve. This society promotes the concept of risk, allowing for a continuum of innovation and advancements like no other economic strategy can.
The possibility of devastating failures exist but time and time again, some of the biggest failures in history resulted in the most magnificent successes. Thomas Edison is a perfect example. As a boy, he was deemed too stupid to learn anything by his teacher. Because Edison was a true individual who refused to let anyone determine his success but himself, he conducted over 9,000 experiments before finally creating the first working lightbulb. By the end of his life he had 1,093 U.S. patents held in his name. This sort of success through successive failure can only take place in a society where the individual is free to pursue their God-given visions.
America use to be an Independent society. For several decades we have been drifting from this. And only recently the drift became full speed away from the Independent concept. We have betrayed our founding ideals. We have handed over the reins to a Co-Dependent model rendering us closer to serfs than citizens. In fact, due to an ever-encroaching Federal Government, a college drop-out by the name of Bill Gates, could never start up a little software company called Microsoft in today's Big Government environment. Think about that!
In today's America, we are now subjects of the Co-Dependent model. Depending on what sort of person you are, this is either a dream come true or a sheet-soaking nightmare. Where we use to have two classes in our Independent society, we still have two in our Co-Dependent but the functions are profoundly different. In a Co-Dependent environment one is either a Keeper or a Pet. The Keepers are a relative handful of self-appointed intellectual elites whose role is to control and maintain the existence of all the world's Pets. Pets are people who expect their Keepers to provide food, clothing, shelter, education, healthcare, and at the very least, a pretense of a job.
Keepers are self-evaluated and are suppose to provide all Pets with equal provisions. Of course, though they hate to admit it, Keepers are human. They inevitably have their "favorite" Pets. These Pets will receive higher quality provisions which, on the surface seems to be quite a nice existence. There is a down side. Once a Pet is favored by a Keeper, that Pet is monitored closer and held to higher standards of Keeper loyalty than the rest of the Pets kept in the normal kennel runs.
At the end of the day though, the people who are Pets, much like the protesters in Greece and now the students in England, expect their Keepers to KEEP. Unfortunately, though the Keepers say otherwise, they are not GOD and can not drop manna from heaven no matter how many academic degrees or Nobel Peace Prizes they have. Sadly, the current generation of Pets have no desire to break free and take responsibility for their own existence. The very fact they were not aborted in their minds means they are entitled to Government care from cradle to grave. The key word being "grave".
The Keepers have a love hate relationship with their Pets. They need the Pets in order to justify the role of Keeper in the first place but though a Keeper may feel pity for a Pet, a Pet is and always will be inferior to the Keeper. A Keeper craves total control, often initially under the guise of "knowing what is best" for the ignorant Pets. Economically, the Keepers have all rights to any pay the Pet's generate. In return, the Keepers provide the Pets all the things the Keepers think the Pets need to live. The incentive to make a good living diminishes since all Pets are given the same regardless of performance. Besides, the less you work, the less of yours gets taken by the Keepers but the more free stuff you get. Not good stuff but still, it's free. Free stuff just no freedom.
Though the Keepers claim open-mindedness, a Keeper's total control over his/her Pets require the scrubbing out of any "GOD" concept in the Keeper/Pet Society. In such a society, the threat of any religion other than the worship of the Keeper, is toxic, even lethal to the Keeper. Though most Pets happily subscribe to a "God is Myth" philosophy when times are good, in economically troubled times, the concept of God becomes the biggest threat to Keeper domination. That's why it is important in a Co-Dependent society to get them young, educate them in purely secular, progressive thought and remind them time and time and time again, Keepers are the Key to Getting Stuff FREE.
In contrast, the Independent society actually invites the worship of a Creator though belief in such is not at all required. Since there is no "supreme" Leader who has the responsibility over the welfare or control of others in the society, the concept of God holds no threat to Independent Leaders. Worship of God within an Independent society serves the individual as a means of inspiration to dig deep into one's source of talents and grow, especially after times of personal failure. Personal belief is a personal affair. In fact, the atheist in an Independent society has the excellent motivation of this life being the one and only shot at living out his/her personal aspirations and doing so with the fruits of labor spent however one wishes. It is true, the atheist mindset finds its greatest chance at success within the structure of Independent societies not the NO GOD ZONE of Co-Dependency.
Though atheism in a Co-Dependent society is touted as intellectually superior, ironically, the atheist Pet is perhaps the most limited human being within the Co-Dependent society. An atheist Pet has no mental concept to engage when all hope and dignity are stripped from them. It's one thing to fail in an Independent society where your failure is yours to deal with, your business to pick yourself up from but to be Godless living in a society capable of taking your identity, diminishing your self worth and assigning you your fate, that's about as low as a human can exist. Conversely, the Pet who harbors notions of a power beyond this reality can retain some level of dignity that no Keeper can touch. If a Pet with no God falls out of favor with their Keeper, all I can say is, God help them.
To be fair, there certainly can be good Keepers with happy Pets. This is the model all Co-Dependent societies work from though none have lived up to. The Co-Dependent model does have its place. As a matter of fact, within the Independent society, mini Co-Dependent units exist with the actual blessing of the Independent society as a whole. These mini C-D units are called "families". On this scale the Co-Dependent set-up has its best chance at succeeding due to a brilliant safety valve built in called adult emancipation. Obviously, parents are the Keepers in the power structure, children the Pets but in this case, there comes a day when the Keepers end their rule, setting the Pets free to fully engage in the realm of Independence, to sink or swim on their own.
Parents, like Keepers, can be good or they can suck, regardless emancipation insures no one remains a Pet forever, especially under a bad Keeper. Unfortunately, less and less individuals are taking advantage of an Independent society's emancipation. When a 26 year-old is guaranteed coverage under his/her PARENT'S health insurance, there's a demeaning force at work planting the seeds for arrested development far into one's lifetime. TWENTY-SIX? I had my first gray hairs by 26! For Pete's sake, have some pride!
While the family unit can be a successful example of Co-Dependent success in an Independent society, much like God, the family unit in a full-blown Co-Dependent society is a real threat. Again, it provides a Pet with the possibility of aligning with a pack based on blood ties. In a Co-Dependent society, blood ties are frowned upon, with packs formed under the guidance of the Keeper alone. Careful temperament screenings are made to make sure any pack formed will not have the dynamics to turn on the Keeper. Got it? All breeding and social interaction are directed and monitored by the Keeper, period.
The brilliance of the Co-Dependent society comes in the causes initially promoted. It champions the perceived "victims" of an Independent society, highlighting how unfair Independence is to the weak. If a person is a racial minority, a female, uneducated, personally defined by their sexual orientation, lazy, pre-disposed to a life of crime, a low-paid worker, or actor, the Co-Dependent Keepers will promise the moon. Like the case of the atheist, these "victims" are the first round recruits to Pethood in a Co-Dependent society. However, the fact is, their odds of achieving their highest capabilities greatly diminish when kept as Pets. Even criminals fair better in an Independent society where the number of wealthy people with stuff worth stealing always far exceeds the measly handful of wealthy Keepers in a Co-Dependent society. And Lord knows the stuff your fellow Pets have isn't worth the trouble.
So why not let the Independent minded people try their society unimpeded in one sliver of the planet and give the rest of the globe over to the Keepers and Pets? Well, this sorta happened, once for a short period of time. It was called the United States of America and it lasted about 100 years. Then word got out to way too many Pets. Pets began leaving their Keepers in droves. Something had to be done! And so characters like Marx and his intellectual elite set began the new campaign. The Independent experiment had to end before it became too powerful and screwed up the gig for all the Keepers.
If the Keepers were so smart, why not start their own Independent society and flourish there? Why not come to America and see how and why it is good to give man the right to form his own destiny? Some Keepers did and because many are actually smart, they succeeded and flourished. But ultimately, the only way these sorts of individuals are fulfilled is when they control not just their own destiny, but the destiny of other men. If Independence caught on globally, GOOD BYE KEEPERS.
As technology advanced and communication became possible from one end of the earth to the other at the push of a button, the message HAD to be accelerated to take down the Independent movement. Co-Dependent Keepers rely on class warfare to demonize Independents instead of being intellectually honest and comparing the poor of an Independent society to the conditions of people living as the poorest Pets in Co-Dependent societies. There is no question which society does a better job. The Independent, pro-human, self-destiny-driven experiment that promotes authentic free-thought trumps the false sympathies and empty promises of the Co-Dependent society every time.
Cut to the Keeper in the corner with his hand over his ears singing "lah-lah-lah-lah-lah, I can't hear you, lah-lah-lah-LAH!
Regardless of the times, there will always be the man who believes the abilities of the individual are to be unfettered for his and society's benefit. There will always be the man who believes fettered masses benefit more when saved from themselves. If history holds any answers, we're due some serious fettering soon. America's government officials pit man against man as they shamelessly proclaim that not raising taxes on the rich is taking money from the Government. Who earned the money, Ms. Pelosi? Who employs workers, Ms. Pelosi? Not you, Madame! But clearly, in one way or another, you are certainly a KEEPER. When this is the mindset spoken on public airwaves as fact, you know Big Government and dark days are ahead for the spirit of Independence.
Some say trying to fight forces like the ones currently on the hunt for the last remnants of the Independent ideal is folly. It's like trying to stop winter from following autumn. Then again, some individuals do head for Florida this time of year! Where there's a will...you'll find an Independent.
God bless the Independents and all those Pets thinking about losing their muzzle and collar for good.
Each of these types have two subsets within them. The Independents are made up of Leaders and Supporters. The Leaders are those in the Independent society who have been successful in their particular goal. They serve as examples and inspiration to those individuals (Supporters) who are in the process of goal pursuit. The benefits between the relationship of Leaders and Supporters go both directions. The Supporters provide the Leaders the much needed aspect to all individuals who want to continue to grow, that being competition. The Old Pro always relishes the challenge from the Young Up and Comer.
Though Leaders are people who have proven their talents and succeeded in their field, the Independent society believes all people need to be pushed to their limits the span of one's lifetime. No person in an Independent society rests on their laurels. In fact, any one individual can serve as Leader and Supporter any number of times within their life, making each person's experience perpetually in flux while putting the entire society continually headed in a forward momentum. Such a society promotes the freedom of all to pursue the goals of their choice with no guarantee of success or failure rather focusing on the actual pursuit as the source of an individual's true fulfillment.
For an Independent society, Capitalism as it's economic model, is a reasonably good fit when matched with a small central government, a larger local government, both answering to the people they serve. This society promotes the concept of risk, allowing for a continuum of innovation and advancements like no other economic strategy can.
The possibility of devastating failures exist but time and time again, some of the biggest failures in history resulted in the most magnificent successes. Thomas Edison is a perfect example. As a boy, he was deemed too stupid to learn anything by his teacher. Because Edison was a true individual who refused to let anyone determine his success but himself, he conducted over 9,000 experiments before finally creating the first working lightbulb. By the end of his life he had 1,093 U.S. patents held in his name. This sort of success through successive failure can only take place in a society where the individual is free to pursue their God-given visions.
America use to be an Independent society. For several decades we have been drifting from this. And only recently the drift became full speed away from the Independent concept. We have betrayed our founding ideals. We have handed over the reins to a Co-Dependent model rendering us closer to serfs than citizens. In fact, due to an ever-encroaching Federal Government, a college drop-out by the name of Bill Gates, could never start up a little software company called Microsoft in today's Big Government environment. Think about that!
In today's America, we are now subjects of the Co-Dependent model. Depending on what sort of person you are, this is either a dream come true or a sheet-soaking nightmare. Where we use to have two classes in our Independent society, we still have two in our Co-Dependent but the functions are profoundly different. In a Co-Dependent environment one is either a Keeper or a Pet. The Keepers are a relative handful of self-appointed intellectual elites whose role is to control and maintain the existence of all the world's Pets. Pets are people who expect their Keepers to provide food, clothing, shelter, education, healthcare, and at the very least, a pretense of a job.
Keepers are self-evaluated and are suppose to provide all Pets with equal provisions. Of course, though they hate to admit it, Keepers are human. They inevitably have their "favorite" Pets. These Pets will receive higher quality provisions which, on the surface seems to be quite a nice existence. There is a down side. Once a Pet is favored by a Keeper, that Pet is monitored closer and held to higher standards of Keeper loyalty than the rest of the Pets kept in the normal kennel runs.
At the end of the day though, the people who are Pets, much like the protesters in Greece and now the students in England, expect their Keepers to KEEP. Unfortunately, though the Keepers say otherwise, they are not GOD and can not drop manna from heaven no matter how many academic degrees or Nobel Peace Prizes they have. Sadly, the current generation of Pets have no desire to break free and take responsibility for their own existence. The very fact they were not aborted in their minds means they are entitled to Government care from cradle to grave. The key word being "grave".
The Keepers have a love hate relationship with their Pets. They need the Pets in order to justify the role of Keeper in the first place but though a Keeper may feel pity for a Pet, a Pet is and always will be inferior to the Keeper. A Keeper craves total control, often initially under the guise of "knowing what is best" for the ignorant Pets. Economically, the Keepers have all rights to any pay the Pet's generate. In return, the Keepers provide the Pets all the things the Keepers think the Pets need to live. The incentive to make a good living diminishes since all Pets are given the same regardless of performance. Besides, the less you work, the less of yours gets taken by the Keepers but the more free stuff you get. Not good stuff but still, it's free. Free stuff just no freedom.
Though the Keepers claim open-mindedness, a Keeper's total control over his/her Pets require the scrubbing out of any "GOD" concept in the Keeper/Pet Society. In such a society, the threat of any religion other than the worship of the Keeper, is toxic, even lethal to the Keeper. Though most Pets happily subscribe to a "God is Myth" philosophy when times are good, in economically troubled times, the concept of God becomes the biggest threat to Keeper domination. That's why it is important in a Co-Dependent society to get them young, educate them in purely secular, progressive thought and remind them time and time and time again, Keepers are the Key to Getting Stuff FREE.
In contrast, the Independent society actually invites the worship of a Creator though belief in such is not at all required. Since there is no "supreme" Leader who has the responsibility over the welfare or control of others in the society, the concept of God holds no threat to Independent Leaders. Worship of God within an Independent society serves the individual as a means of inspiration to dig deep into one's source of talents and grow, especially after times of personal failure. Personal belief is a personal affair. In fact, the atheist in an Independent society has the excellent motivation of this life being the one and only shot at living out his/her personal aspirations and doing so with the fruits of labor spent however one wishes. It is true, the atheist mindset finds its greatest chance at success within the structure of Independent societies not the NO GOD ZONE of Co-Dependency.
Though atheism in a Co-Dependent society is touted as intellectually superior, ironically, the atheist Pet is perhaps the most limited human being within the Co-Dependent society. An atheist Pet has no mental concept to engage when all hope and dignity are stripped from them. It's one thing to fail in an Independent society where your failure is yours to deal with, your business to pick yourself up from but to be Godless living in a society capable of taking your identity, diminishing your self worth and assigning you your fate, that's about as low as a human can exist. Conversely, the Pet who harbors notions of a power beyond this reality can retain some level of dignity that no Keeper can touch. If a Pet with no God falls out of favor with their Keeper, all I can say is, God help them.
To be fair, there certainly can be good Keepers with happy Pets. This is the model all Co-Dependent societies work from though none have lived up to. The Co-Dependent model does have its place. As a matter of fact, within the Independent society, mini Co-Dependent units exist with the actual blessing of the Independent society as a whole. These mini C-D units are called "families". On this scale the Co-Dependent set-up has its best chance at succeeding due to a brilliant safety valve built in called adult emancipation. Obviously, parents are the Keepers in the power structure, children the Pets but in this case, there comes a day when the Keepers end their rule, setting the Pets free to fully engage in the realm of Independence, to sink or swim on their own.
Parents, like Keepers, can be good or they can suck, regardless emancipation insures no one remains a Pet forever, especially under a bad Keeper. Unfortunately, less and less individuals are taking advantage of an Independent society's emancipation. When a 26 year-old is guaranteed coverage under his/her PARENT'S health insurance, there's a demeaning force at work planting the seeds for arrested development far into one's lifetime. TWENTY-SIX?
