I would like to see the Venn Diagrams of both the Religious and Non-Religious and Vacc'ed vs Not Vacc'ed

In the time of the greatest pandemic fear frenzy, when I paid someone to deliver my groceries 25 miles from the store and promptly wiped them down with the precious 6 lysol wipes we treated like gold, I went to a Mennonite Bakery which was near. As we went up to the window we were amazed none of the children had masks, none of the adults. Through my own fear badge of non-courage I asked the father how/why/who/what/where. IF its your time to go, its your time to go the father calmly explained.

Dont forgot this is the Tapas app phase of existence. If you are a true Christian; why fear any chance to reunite with your maker. If making a decision based on fear or your own mortality, rethink that decision...reflect on the big picture....true faith is courageous.

I have always been in awe of the Faith shown to me that day. It was a great lesson out of many lessons during the pandemic. I have tried to live less scared for myself and my family. I have tried to make less decisions in which the focus is about our time on this pre-cursor to the big game.

Science fails to recognize the single most

Potent element of human existence

Letting the reins go to the unfolding

Is faith, faith, faith, faith.

I always thought I was a Christian, but it wasn't until the plandemic, that I reconfirmed my faith, on my knees, asking God's forgiveness, and stating that Jesus was my Lord and Savior. Changing the way I lived. I saw the writing on the walls, so to speak. It was fairly liberating, to know that no matter what, now, I have no fear of death or plague. I am not in a hurry to die, but death is now just the big sleep to me. I knew I was a good person, kind and generous, but that is not enough. We are seeing what has been prophesied and it is unfolding in front on our eyes. God bless and keep us all.

Nikki - I had a similar experience - pre-Covid I would describe government with '3 i's': Inept, Incompetent, Inefficient. But in general, well-meaning and aligned with the citizen's interests. Post-Covid, the 3 i's still exist, but now there is a 4th - Immoral. Just plain immoral and fundamentally EVIL.

God brought it all front and center for me too! Put people on my path that showed me to live without fear. We had some tough times and I kept telling my husband, “We will be taken care of. I am certain of it.” He looked at me like I was nuts. 😆BUT THERE IT WAS FAITH. Sounds strange, but I am grateful for the last few years.

I have almost always thought of "death" as just the segue into the REAL life of being in the blissful and peaceful state of awaiting the return of Jesus Christ the Lord of heaven and earth to UNITE the particles of my earthly "tent" with the ETERNAL SOUL! I also believe that the "eternal kingdoms heaven & hell" exist in tandem to the physical realms we know and study. It's very, very intricate for our FINITE minds to comprehend the INFINITE--but I am at peace about my "passing over". It's just the beginning of FOREVER!!

When you say 'religious' does that mean Christian? Or a long recognized religion? The reason I ask is that it appears to me that the maksers/vaxxers are under the influence of a new religion, which I don't have name for, Covidian or Wokism don'y seem to encompass it all. They rely solely on faith though.

This, too. There's no question that the leftist/wokist ideology has a highly religious bent, complete with an anointed priest class, but entirely bereft of spirituality.

The only new religion they are under is Designed Fear for Profit.....at least to me.

Read this news, feel out of control and scared for your existence, so that by clicking on the banner on the right (Or take this silver bullet medical injection pandemic fixer) of the page you can take control of a transaction, and pretend...fleetingly.....to take back control of your life and this world. Wash Rinse Repeat.

And NOW a word from our sponsor, to give you a piece of control (for a small price) in this crazy world!

The only true remedy for fear is context. God given context and Faith.

I remember reading (a couple of years ago now) about how Google's foundational documents (like pro-Forma, business case, etc) was Julian Assanged by another guy....and remained up for like a week until all traces of it were "dissapeared". In it was a study from the English Tube which was titled "Environmental Stress and Consumerism". What was found is that on a packed train consumerism jumped 30% (vs riding in empty trains) in terms of financial transactions from the train passengers themselves. The stress of being packed and NOT in control leads human nature to push for temporary financial control by executing transactions, where you are temporarily in control. Think of the 80's the cliche's of shopping spree's when one's life was stressed out. Its the same basic nature. So the news pushes you to feel out of control, human nature pushes you to find an outlet of control, which in our day and age is consumerism. I have had no luck tracking it down since but it explains a BUNCH about where we are in terms of being told we are NOT in control nearly 24 x 7.

I, for a LONG time, was concerned about the population control evil that is often brought up around here concerning the pandemic, but with recent news stories have fallen back to good old Greed being the culprit. Medical Patent Oklahoma Soonerism and getting caught with hands in the GOF cookie jar caused a RUSHED coverup and horribly designed "antidote". Fear was pushed, tribalism (aka Dr Seuss sneetches with needles instead of tattoos) fanned for profit levels that never could of been dreamed of before. To me it has changed my own worldview of religion, science and runaway capitalism in medicine. This shouldn't be a partisan issue.

Faith and the realism that what we have been taught from every institution has been lie after lie. If you have lived long enough, you can is the patterns which are all meant to create fear and have people not living using their own sovereignty. Martha Stewart does not tell me anything but how to and you must and blah, blah, blah. My choices are what I like, not what the experts think is trendy. Buy, buy, buy....trends in clothing, interior design, etc. is all about purchasing! We make people rich by being stupid.

I am with you. I have started spending more for higher quality so they will last me decades instead of a year or two. Seriously, I have a college sweatshirt that is nearly 40 years old. Matter of fact, I’m wearing it today. I have a long-sleeved shirt from high school that I still wear in the winter. I also have shirts from a few years ago that are falling apart. I’m tired of spending $30 for a shirt that 2 years later needs to be replaced. It’s a rip off. I don’t care about fashion. I want comfort, class, and durability.

Same. Two to three dozen natural fiber clothing items, in classic designs, hand washed in many cases, curated(sort of?), some 40 years old. Ironing required. Remember the first permanent press fabrics? Late 60's, early 70's? Perfectly awful hand, drape and styles to boot. It should come as no surprise that it's chemicals that are used to treat fibers or finished garments to render the convenience of wrinkle-free. Formaldehyde was the original chemical; now many formaldehyde derivatives. Read: carcinogenic or suspect.

Related: heard a story in recent years of a mom that mentioned a clothing item that might need to be ironed; teen child responded, "What's ironed [mean]?" Ouch.

I have clothes that were my mother’s. They are still in fabulous shape. I also have a dress from the late 1800s that was a distant relative. It’s a very fine, white cotton dress with tatting. The ancestor tatted.

I keep looking for 100% cotton. It’s hard to find anymore. Nearly everything contains some synthetic fiber.

There was a meme going around social the past couple of days about how it used to be you had 10 minutes to escape a burning building. Now, because of all the synthetic fibers in our furniture, etc., that burn hotter and faster, you have 3-4 minutes.

Not surprised on longevity of heirloom clothing.

As one who sews since two weeks of lessons in mid '60s "day camp" before that was a term, (other week-long program was charm school 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣in the basement at Sears, OMG! It didn't take! Haven't thought about that in decades.) even natural fabrics on bolts are treated these days. Mostly sizing, and recommended to be washed before cutting and sewing garments. Still... Yep, always check fiber content on garments. Don't buy much anymore.

Haven't flown since plandemic craziness, but another space where I consciously always wore natural fibers, just in case. Keep it in mind.

Funny/tragic story:

The church we used to go to had the musicians pre-record hymns to be replayed during zoom services. One evening, my friend and her daughter were at the church doing their pre-recording, all the lights on. This was in the late fall of 2020 in the Seattle area, so it was already dark outside at 5:00. Someone was driving home from work and saw through the windows people singing and playing instruments without masks on and alerted the governor. The pastor got a letter from the governor’s office reminding him that people were not allowed to gather, or sing without masks on. After that, the musicians had to WEAR MASKS WHILE PRE-RECORDING THE HYMNS. Even if there was only one person in the building, or as in this case, two people of the same household. The decision was based on the verses about “avoiding even the appearance of evil”. SMH

My opinion Bryn is God used this man made hysteria to separate the wheat from the chaff. 'Who truly trusts Me and who doesn't'. The church and leadership that doesn't trust in the God they ascribe to are struggling to this day.

And the pastor agreed to that dictate? I guess he missed Paul's instructions about being bold in one's faith.

He did! He responded out of shame and excused it with the verse about avoiding the appearance of evil. We had stopped going there because, even in the summertime when the weather was beautiful (it doesn’t get hot much in Seattle) we couldn’t even have maskless services outside with people spaced out.

With absolute respect to everyone who is, I am not a religious person. I believe in a Creator and know I'm not the creator, but nothing past that. I did not take the poison and I am fine. However, I too believe that when it is time to leave this material world, it is, and nothing but hte Creator can change that.

I'm not sure someone's spirituality or lack thereof made a difference during the scamdemic. For me, I believed that nature heals itself in time, so if there was a pathogen, we would find a way to overcome. But, I also believed the entire thing was a scam. I believe the power of the mind is more than we can possibly understand and our belief in healing or sickness does affect us physically. I'm working on a post on psychogenic death, placebos and nocebos - they are a real thing. Of course I'm not discounting the intervention of faith or the Creator, but I also feel a lot of man-made reasoning saw us through this orchestrated plan.

Expand full comment

Excellent. Regarding your last point, yes...On the one hand, OK...supposedly there's a pathogen out there that makes some people sick. OK...If I get sick, I get sick -- but somehow knew along all I wouldn't -- and I didn't. Faith was it? Maybe...

OTOH, the numbers were so absurd it shocked me to see people falling for them. Are you freakin' kidding me??? From a known loser at Imperial College who got mad cow disease 100% wrong, we're going to listen to this guy? 2 million dead in the U.S.? Is this a joke???

Instantaneous, back-of-the-envelope 𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒉𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒊𝒄 demonstrated the absurdity of such a claim. So. For 2 million to die, how many would have to get infected? Of those, how many would have to become symptomatic? Of those, how many would become seriously ill? Of those, how many would have to become hospitalized in order for 2 million to die??????

The only way that that might happen is if, in fact, we were dealing with a biological weapon. But no...we were assured of this pathogen's natural origins...and that no medicines existed to treat its symptoms.

I am not particularly religious, but I do believe there is a higher power. Some 30 years ago, my sister died as a result of a car accident. She was young and healthy.

Yup. Decades ago two younger siblings dead in their 20s, here one minute, gone the next. Another at age 50, but expected due to illness. Dad at 54, also anticipated.

These souls have all done an immeasurable service to humanity. Doesn't lessen the pain of surviving loved ones, and certainly doesn't excuse corporate behavior, just allows me a rationalization, a reason, to the degree I'm able to grasp such why they had to go. I believe people are waking up and that a shift in consciousness is underway toward what is acceptable, desirable, and worth fighting for for a renewed society on the planet, coming in the 21st century. 10,000 miles up view. 2¢

Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes, and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. And I knew that You always hear Me; but because of the crowd standing around I said this, so that they may believe that You sent Me.” And when He had said these things, He cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth.” The man who had died came forth, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”

Regarding Christmas - A weary world rejoices...

Expand full comment

I love this simple line…a weary world rejoices.

The words from the old hymns are so powerful and meaningful. Here’s one of my favorites, reading it lends new meaning to the words. It also references the weary world.

It came upon the midnight clear,

that glorious song of old,

from angels bending near the earth

to touch their harps of gold:

"Peace on the earth, good will to men,

from heaven's all-gracious King."

The world in solemn stillness lay,

to hear the angels sing.

2 Still through the cloven skies they come

with peaceful wings unfurled,

and still their heavenly music floats

o'er all the weary world;

above its sad and lowly plains,

they bend on hovering wing,

and ever o'er its Babel sounds

the blessed angels sing.

3 And ye, beneath life's crushing load,

whose forms are bending low,

who toil along the climbing way

with painful steps and slow,

look now! for glad and golden hours

come swiftly on the wing.

O rest beside the weary road,

and hear the angels sing!

4 For lo! the days are hastening on,

by prophet seen of old,

when with the ever-circling years

shall come the time foretold

when peace

It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the ridiculous limits of his knowledge. This is the dimension of governmental sciencistic dogma. It is an area which we call the Masking Zone.

So true! I have never gotten a bad response. I especially like to compliment a grungy girl for her crazy colored hair because she really does want to be noticed and I feel like they do it for that reason but I bet they get no feedback.

It really gives me such joy when a compliment comes tumbling out of my mouth for a random stranger. I am truly a shy person who would prefer to hang quietly at home doing homebody things. That said, the Holy Spirit always inspires me to reach out to others at the most interesting times because I have taught my children to ask Jesus to go before us and show us ways to bring light to others every day. And it always winds up blessing me with their smiles or happy eyes.

I do that often with people. It's fun and feels good to see them happy. I used to be shy. Now I'll walk up to a perfect stranger and tell them I love their dress or something. It's a genuine compliment.

I never used to, but I talk to everybody now. In stores, out on my walks, wherever. Not once have I had an indifferent response. Every single person, after a brief disbelief at being engaged with randomly, has lit up, warmed up, and talked. People are starved for what used to be so normal it was taken for granted and it's been let to wither. Like getting involved in local concerns, nobody's going to do it unless we do! Talk to everyone, especially those you'd normally have skipped over in past times because they look weird or whatever :) People need to be loved, and if you knew me in real life you'd know how strange that statement is coming from me. I'm not a people person, but the last few years have opened my eyes and my heart to how dark and sad our fellow travelers have become, and how simple it is to shed just a little light around.

Jeff, in yesterday's post, you said, "moving the chains down the field is exactly what we need to do to win."

My husband, who is a wee bit black-pilled, said there is no way to win.

This got me thinking about people's definitions for winning. His definition is jail/capital punishment for perpetrators. For me, in addition to punishment, I would want to see history books recognize what really happened in all this mess.

Jeff, what is your definition of winning? Justice is obviously a part of it, but does your definition include other aspects?

Here are my thoughts worth 1cent. What I have noticed is that yes...history does repeat itself. It seems that when you give the world 2 or 3 generations of time, somehow they forget or facts are so faded that they hardly believe. They lose track and then crap happens again. I am 58 and teaching middle schoolers, in our conversations about history, I am sometimes shocked at the things they have never heard of. Or how skewed. How do we lose track of kings and then find them buried under parking lots? How do temples where atrocities happened get buried for generations to be found so long after. How do modern people not know that the land of Israel used to be the home of the Jewish people. ((Regardless of what is happening now) how does information get so lost. We can win for now, but will we write it up and pass it on so the next people will remember?

The Fourth Turning is an excellent book on history following a spiral pattern. Every 80ish years we pass through a “great and perilous gate of history”. Generations shaped by their life events interact to create a tinder box ripe for a spark. As society enters a gate, the outcome may be uncertain but there will be CLEAR winners and losers - no compromise or half measures.

It is worth noting that modern day European Jews are not semites or descendants of biblical Jews.

Judaism is more of a religion than an ethnicity, historically speaking - though it does naturally tend to follow ethnic lines (since they don't seek to convert anyone to join them).

Expand full comment

I was under the impression that Ashkenazi Jews were from the biblical lineage. I would imagine that of the total population of Jewish people in Israel, it would be a case by case basis to know their exact DNA. Almost 2000 years since the fall of Jerusalem. That gives a lot of time for the ethnic Jews to intermix with others. Part of my point was people either not knowing or some don't care to know.

Read some supposedly researched history recently that, if true, points to the Khazar tribe of 14c-16c (I forget timeline - bad form, apologies) eastern Europe as the seed of Ashkenazi jews. (Also bad form not including links. Info is out there on the webs.)

The Khazar tribe were [what we now recognize as psychopaths/sociopaths] in significant proportion thieves, murderers, plunderers, rapists, sadistic in nature. Neighboring tribes/geopolitical entities hated them. These Khazarians, the claimed Ashkenazi jews, are of Turcic and some other local/surrounding genetic eastern European origin, not a drop of semite blood in them. The argument in the history is Ashkenazi jewry was created by propaganda, a claim, nothing to do with genetics. The Ashkenazi are the origin of the Zionists, the political faction that schemed and garnered support from like mindeds to plunder and kill Palestinian peoples for establishment of a homeland. Like mindeds such as (from USA, though most post date the war in 1947) Kissinger, Brzezinksi, Wolfowitz &c, all the way up to the current warmongering psychopathic globalists. I'm no great student of politics or history but if true, this political landscape rather fits the shape of a missing puzzle piece.

No argument with your point about mixing of ethnic Jews. Just mainly, from my intrigue in reading as reported above, a comment on the modern state of Israel's origins. No answers, just curiouser and curiouser from the 10,000 miles up perspective, where there are no lines on earth masses dividing up territory.

I am a firm believer in the hand of God on history. "You meant it for evil, but God meant it for good". We may never know (completely) the "who, why, what" of the past few years this side of heaven. Our world was trending *very* evil (has been for decades, if not longer).

I lived through four years of fires in CA. I can tell you firsthand that after many years of drought, the fires occurred during high winds that fanned the flames into firestorms. The high winds were unusual for Northern California, although I experienced them every year of my youth in Southern California. But Sonoma County experienced a similar fire in 1965 that burned through the same areas - the difference was there weren't thousands of homes and businesses built in the fire's path back in '65. This was long before HAARP and the "space lasers" postulated by people who never show evidence of these devices.

Of course, those areas have been built back up since 2020's fire, just like people along the Russian River rebuild their homes after the periodic floods that occur there, rather than moving to higher ground. Part of the madness that is Cali.

1) There should be “exemption PERIOD”. Not for only religious reasons, not for only medical reasons. Bodily autonomy & our God given right to say N-O should be enough

2) With all of the 3rd world illegal aliens & their 3rd world DISEASES flooding over our borders, it wouldn’t surprise me if there are upticks in formerly-eradicated or rare (in the States) diseases.

If there’s an “uptick” in diseases, it’s because we’re being poisoned to make a point.

You can bet we’d hear about “measles” or “polio” or any other outbreaks anywhere in the world to keep the psyop alive. We don’t.

Second, the fact that they have not been injected should tell us all that it's not important to be vaccinated---and if it were, our gov't would most certainly enforce vaccination for the public benefit. More likely, they need these immigrants to survive to vote, disrupt, drive us deeper into poverty/destroy the middle class and even to be available to create strong, anti-American forces that will kill us on our own soil should that become necessary.

And what do the mandates have to do with anything other than political strategy? It has nothing to do with efficacy or safety of vaccines. Are you suggesting it’s not fair that the govt didn’t also poison the illegals? Ok…..

Agreed - we'd hear it till the end of time if they were bringing actual diseases with them. And mandates are nothing about health, only control. This whole scamdemic was nothing but a control show.

Wait until people realize smallpox was invented again by two University scientists in Canada. They were funded by their government and a Canadian pHarmaceutical company is developing a vaccine for it.

Initially some states had philosophical vaccine exemptions… which is what I’d also like to see come back… beyond the religious or medical exemptions.

It’s basically a person saying I disagree with the ideology and the ‘science’!

Bring back philosophical vaccine exemptions!!! 🙏🏻

Paul Offitt is stooge for the pediatric vaccine schedule because he’s made millions off his vaccine patent for rotavirus… which has directly harmed kids. And that’s who they quote as an expert. It’s outrageous!! Conflict of interest anyone???!

The pediatric vaccine schedule has harmed generations of kids. 1:6 kids now has some form of developmental issue… let that stat sink in!! We have crippled two generations of kids… who will have great difficulty growing up to be fully contributing members of society.

I also see this as a future national security issue.

One thing to bear in mind is that vaccine damage is generational. We are now getting into the children that are being born to the people who were first affected by the 1986 indemnity act. The children born today are not only getting their own cellular damage from the vaccines, they are also receiving their parents cellular damage as well, and the damage that their grandparents received from their few jabs! It's going to be one heck of a nasty snowball effect...

Yup. Epi-genetics.

And I’m seeing a new form of pediatric disordered speech… sure looks new to me.

“Vaccination, instead of doing good, works considerable mischief by giving rise to many new diseases. Even its advocates cannot deny that, after its introduction, many new diseases have come into being.”

I wonder why there aren’t “medical” exemptions. Doesn’t that seem like the first exemption that should be allowed?

(But with the person being able to decide, not having to go to a doctor for it.) During Covid a doctor’s declaration that a person should not get the jab wasn’t even honored, which was unbelievable.

The majority of states and colleges still allow a medical exemption… but good LUCK getting an MD to stick their necks out for your kid to write them. Takes a special MD with a good soul to agree to it- for all the same reason we’ve seen in covid… they’ll strip an MDs medical license if they write too many pediatric vaccine exemptions. I have been in advocacy for years in the realm of childhood chronic illness… and it’s really difficult to get them.

CA was limiting pediatricians to writing five medical exemptions in their whole practice… if your kid was kid #6… they were SOL… and in NY state… they were refusing to approve medical exemptions for kids to attend school … there was a big case… absolutely outrageous… the NY state medical board over-road the child’s doctor and refused the medical exemption- even when the child was having over 100 uncontrolled seizures a day… so many NY parents fled to CT schools as medical refugees after NY state pulled this crap… for CT to then pull the religious exemptions here …

This issue of pediatric vaccination is AS BAD… if not worse… as the covid vaccines.

24 hours of public testimony in CT occurred against the mandate… one family right after another … and then no more testimonies were allowed. People were denied the right to speak. I protested in Hartford, CT during covid when they pulled the religious exemption. Bobby Kennedy was there and spoke. It was a a huge disappointment. They knew it was wildly unpopular and they did it anyway. The state of CT didn’t care.

The outcome was any child in the CT school system was ‘grandfathers in’ under the religious exemption… but no new kids would be allowed to enrolled in school using a religious exemption…. Which tells you this is NOT about health. It’s about control.

And I met families at the state capital… that will have to leave CT/move… Because their older children are enrolled in the school system and are now grandfathered in… but younger siblings… not in kindergarten yet, will not be afforded the same right.

It’s outrageous!!!

NJ held onto their religious vaccine exemption during the same period.

Truthseeker - thank you for your advocacy on be half of the children in CT. That had to be so heartbreaking to see so many citizens involved in trying to keep their rights get blitzed. The politicians had made up their minds and just allowed citizens to speak but they were determined to not listen to a word their citizens had to say. Sickening!

With over 260+ vaccines in the pipeline prior to the plandemic, States were working to eliminate the three allowed exemptions: Philosophical, Religious, and Medical. The first to go was always the Philosophical Exemption. Hellinois did this and was working towards the elimination of the Religious Exemption to keep up with California. Thankfully this never happened and many students at Loyola University were never forced to take the experimental jab.

If I understand correctly, I think SCOTUS had ruled that "any sincerely held belief qualifies as religious for the purposes of constitutional protection" (such as secular-humanist beliefs held with the force of a religious conviction). Though, good luck with getting success on that basis unless you're willing to sue over it.

Those are "philosophical" exemptions. About 16 states had them as of a few years ago.

"Philo"s root meaning is love (I was told it's like brotherly love when used in the Bible). "Soph"s root meaning is wisdom. So they are actually exemptions based on the love of wisdom!

Speaking as someone who did trust "the science" for vaccines prior to 2020/2021, I can understand people being afraid of Measles or such after decades of people getting traditional vaccines against them. I remember in the 2010's some nearby mega church (prosperity gospel) known for being very anti-vaccine had an outbreak after some missionaries returned from overseas. They dropped their position after that. So - I can see people being afraid.

Of course, we have a _very_ different vaccine schedule than what most of us grew up with. I got my 3-4 or so as a kid but before the vaccine makers were protected from lawsuits. The schedule today is beyond out of control - and some proven harmful shots are still on some of these "mandatory" schedules - like Gardisil.

For the states not allowing a religious exemption, CT is a recent addition to that. They did away with that shortly after the mRNA shots started coming out. :(

But that’s not how disease works. An outbreak among the members of one group that never affected the general public? Sounds like a targeted poisoning done to make a publicized example of what happens overnight to people who don’t like vaccines. It’s ludicrous.

The crazy thing is it was always only media hype. Measles also has (has always had) a 99%+ chance of full recovery and the so-called vaccine never prevented anything. But you can’t convince people who have been reading the lies in every newspaper and childhood textbook for decades.

Had the measles 2x and chicken pox. It was great! I got to miss school, sit at home with my Grandma, play with my dog, and watch TV. (Except with the measles. NO TV! So I read and played games.)

Expand full comment

If there is an outbreak of measles, they will blame it on "anti-vaxers" for political reasons. The more likely explanation is "irregular migrants" or illegal immigrants (or whatever is the correct term). How many of them are up to date on their vaccinations? As a legal immigrant, I had to have arms full of shots to enter (MMR, DPT and more). In 2021 and 2022, when they were pushing the covid jabs as saving us, but at the same time letting in (literally) uncounted thousands across the border with no requirement for jabs, I knew something wasn't right.

During one outbreak of the measles it was found that it spread through people who had been vaccinated against it. The media didn’t mention that of course and they blamed it on the unxaxxed.

Expand full comment

There is a vaccine version of many of these diseases which is different from the natural one. The vaccine version can be passed from a recently vaxxed person to the unvaxxed by shedding. They lie about that too and say shedding doesn’t happen but there’s proof of kids who weren’t vaxxed getting the exact version found in the vaccines.

I also had all the real viruses back in the day. Plus when I was in boot camp, I contracted the measles again. Yes, I am in my late 60's. I do know the horror of pregnant women getting measles, just glad I was born before the pharm industry took over.

Someone named Michael Kelley left this comment on a Paul Offit Substack (Offit accused Dr. Ladapo of endangering Floridians): "What is it they tell doctors during their first year in med school "everything you read in these books will be obsolete in 5 years?" That's not because the science changes so quickly, it's because the medical industry constantly requires new revenue streams to continue to generate enormous profits. The pharma industry has proven time and again they will act in a way that damages public health and trust for the next get rich quick medical fad, because they know the profits will far outweigh any fines. Like transitioning children. That's Mengele medicine." I think Kelley is right. Someday we'll look back at the era of vaccines and wonder why we weren't taking care of our immune systems instead.

Per earthquakes, the four gas giant planets, Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune are on one side of Earth, the sun is on the other side, the first time since 79AD. Their magnetic fields will have an effect on Earth; one might conclude an increase in earthquakes and volcanos is likely. BTW, Mount Vesuvius blew in 79AD, no way to know how many others did too in that time frame.

There is so much "nice" happening all around unexpectedly. My husband and I were in Richmond on Friday to see our son's high school band perform for the governor's tree lighting ceremony. It had been raining, we were running late and we wandering all over trying to find a place to park. In short, I looked like something the cat dragged in. Governor Youngkin and his staff couldn't have been more welcoming and accommodating to make sure everyone who wanted to get their picture with him did. No rushing at all for me, the last person in line. And he and his wife were so nice. Such a shame Virginia only allows one 6 year term.
