Many righteous athletes won gold at the Olympics. Novak Djokovic, Cole Hocker, and Sidney McLaughlin gave thanks to God. They shined through the filth of the Seine, opening ceremony, and domestic abuse boxing: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/paris-2024-summer-olympics-demoralization

Re: "Sadly, on Monday the Olympic Committee announced that the 2028 games in Las Angeles will not include any boxing category, a historic cancellation."

Like a small spoiled child screaming and wailing about not getting to put the found cat turd in its mouth, the olympic committee dishonestly removes boxing from the competition, instead of removing men fighting women.

I anticipate this will be overturned before 2028.

Hopefully they will also have come to the inescapable conclusion that if YOU ARE XY YOUR A GUY and the nonsense "science"{tm} of transgenderism will be a thing of the past.

You are right! That is a punchable beta male face... Im betting he suffers an lgbtq mental illness too.

Lesbians like me by and large oppose this agenda, just a reminder. we are the ones, and feminists too, who really exposed the BS with the fighters because we HATE seeing men medal for beating up women.

Read that yesterday Yuri, great article. There were lots of good moments, just none I would watch “live” to give them any credit. Thanks for the recap!

ThreeArchBay's avatar

IMO, the Olympics would be well served to once again ban all PROFESSIONAL athletes.

They make a mockery of the Games, as do the tranz-FREAKS.

Bryan Dair's avatar

And they need to go back to the old definition of what an Olympic 'Sport' is.

Women's trampoline juggling might be entertaining, but Cirque Du Soliel acts

are not sports.

ThreeArchBay's avatar

Yes, and adding break-dancing I think was an intentional woke slap in the face of NORMAL people...

Paige Green's avatar

I don’t know about that, and all I saw were two white women.

They were both awful IMO. I remember watching break dancing back in the day and was amazed at the skill the dancers had. Couldn’t take my eyes off it.

Sadly that was the case for the Olympians too, but it was because of their lack of skill.

ThreeArchBay's avatar

Odd that the Olympic break-dancers did so poorly... most street kids could do far better... still... I guess is isn't anymore goofy than some of the artsy swimming stuff... or many other newer events...

Susan Stephens's avatar

I don’t keep up with the Olympics very well, & didn’t realize pros were allowed.

Amateurs competing with professional athletes. Not right.

Ruining Olympics just like college football.

Never cared about NFL but loved college football; married one in 1965.

Today it’s nothing about a players loyalty to his college & proud & grateful to be there to contribute.

Now it’s about money & NFL & what the coaches & school can do for me.

I grew up in a college town where our university had one of the best football 🏈 programs & coaches ever. But the players were different in those days.

Same university but different generation; it’s to generalized to say all became what I describe previously but most are.

If we didn't have Big Pharma, we wouldn't need Big Pharma.

Connie Lemmincakes's avatar

I read an article yesterday that showed that pharmaceuticals are the #1 cause of death. Psychiatric drugs being the third cause.

Robin Greer's avatar

Most people do not understand how dangerous the psychiatric drugs are. And most teens think that seeing a psychiatrist and being placed on meds is the cool thing to do. Our culture is soooo messed up!

AngelaK's avatar

When my son was young, I knew of two adolescents his age who were heavily drugged for severe learning disabilities. They both died in their teens. I always thought it was the meds.

My son had ADD, not ADHD, but he had some behavioral issues at home.

We briefly sent him to a psychiatrist who immediately wanted to put him on Ritalin. I said no. The doctor said: " but you will then have an angel at home". I said no again. It wasn't easy to stand up to the doctor, but I was not going to do that to him, and chance his health and life.

He grew out of it all, and graduated a top NE college. Thank God. 🙏

A girl in our neighborhood was on Ritalin for ADD. She was spaced out and Zombie like. I guess that is what an "angel' on drugs would be like. 😮‍💨

Erin Fight's avatar

We were pressured as well with my oldest son...an attempt to guilt us by saying, "if it were diabetes, would you deny him insulin?". I denied him Ritalin all day long. He entered the Marine Corp at 18; started a business upon returning from a tour in Iraq, and, today, is a multi-millionaire who has given his life to Jesus Christ. There isn't another focused 40 year old that I know of than he.

Concerned mom's avatar

What a wonderful testimony to any parent wondering if Big Pharma has their best interest at heart... NOPE! Big Pharma has Big Pharma at heart...

Congratulations on following God's lead in your life and making sound decisions for your son!

Robin Landry's avatar

They wanted to put out high school age son on drugs because he was ‘spacey’ at school and not doing his homework.

My husband went to the doctor with him loaded up with my research. The doctor didn’t think our son needed drugs at all—the attention deficit was solved by my son calling his dad every night (he lived with the ex wife) to say that he had his homework done.

Problem solved.

Liberal mom and teacher wanted to drug the boy when all he needed was an adult’s attention.

Son now runs his own business & and is happily married with 2 kids. I’m betting that years of prescribed ‘speed’ would not have done him any favors.

Fre'd Bennett, MAHA's avatar

Semper fidelis.

My own Devil Dog son is one of the best men I've ever known. He's been accused of being "harsh and arrogant." But his command loves him.

As Chris Kyle (US Navy) said, "Marines are the only branch that runs *toward* the sound of gunfire ... because they're afraid of missing out on a good gunfight."

It comforts me to know that rough men like him are standing on our ramparts, so to speak.

And he's the most pious of my four.

Mrs. Mantle's avatar

Love is the cue for so many ills.

Susan Seas's avatar

Yep, my nephew was put on Ritalin at a young age. Drugged into a stupor. After several years his parents took him off and he adjusted fine.

daverkb's avatar

Thank God for Moms with Spine! (and intelligence!)

CC's avatar

So many kids at my daughters' private NYC school were given drugs to 'calm them down'. Most of these kids just needed attention from their rich parents who didn't have time to have dinner with them. They needed discipline, care and attention. But it was far easier to pop them some pills. Very sad indeed.

Tio Nico's avatar

another thing sorely lacking in the schools today is hands on things to DO.

I will never forget chemistry and physics classes in late grade and high school. We DID things learned physical cause and effect, etc. Class discussions were lively and EVERYONE had to participate (grade school class size was FIFTY FIVE students in one room with ONLY one teacher... no discipline issues. Act up, its principal's office, then the dread phone call for Mom to come and pick you up. At most this ever happened only one time. It was NOT a badge of honour to be envied.

And trust me, when "things started to come down" at home we WISHED we were back in school.

We also learned that the telephone was far faster than the bicycle.

Concerned mom's avatar

When my daughter was diagnosed with ADHD... She was so small for her age, but I remembered an article I read about the Montessori method, so whenever she asked to help in the kitchen, I never said no, but found a way she COULD help me.

I told her I TRUST YOU with this sharp knife, and want you to be EXTRA CAREFUL when chopping (onions, carrots, peppers) I don't need FINGER pieces in the salad! In all these years she's been my sous-chef, she's never cut herself (but I have!) AND we've enjoyed many wonderful moments making dinners, baking together, sorting beans, making memories...

Children NEED things to do with their parents. That's the BEST medicine!

Perhaps young adults would not be so angry today if they'd been allowed to express themselves as children, instead of being zombied by pharmaceuticals.

Kathy's avatar

We didn’t have mass shootings often in this country until the introduction of antidepressants and some of these other drugs. The families of the Columbine victims actually sued the company that makes Prozac. You will notice that there is absolutely no discussion of the prescribed drugs shooters are on when you read accounts. “Journalists “ (I hesitate to call most of them that) don’t breathe a word about it.

Kent's avatar

I always THINK when I see a mass shooting of ANY kind anymore, what drugs were they on for "mental health"? Psychiatry/psychotherapy has become the joke of the century but I guess its what the psycho public wants, drugs, drugs and more drugs. The drug culture is so much more than the illicit ones....

John A George's avatar

When you see pictures of the shooters, you can see the vacant look in their eyes every time. The look of an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) zombie.

Kent's avatar

Yes and do you know how often I 'see' that vacant look in the eyes of strangers around me who look the same? I wonder how many of our fellow citizens are drugged up. The US must be gold mine for Big Pharma and its drugs.

AngelaK's avatar

And I always think about what internet sites they were engrossed in.

I think it is a lethal combination of both, actually.

liz's avatar

you are leaving out the most important ingredients. CIA mind control. MK ultra.

AngelaK's avatar

That plus satan sites found on their computers. Remember how the Columbine murderes, deliberately sought out Christian students to kill.

People of faith should realize that entertaining sites of the evil one can possess disturbed souls which are void of God.

Satan sites were found on other young mass murderer's sites as well. I read it in UK press at the time. US refuses to let us know such things because US media is evil itself.

Speaking of satan, Walmart is pushing satanic merchandise to children on their online site. I just received this email with a petition to Walmart.

Pair it with marijuana and you really have a problem.

liz's avatar

not marijuana, that is a silly canard. the real problem with the mass shootings is cia involvement, mk ultra, mind control. Manchurian Candidates.

Fre'd Bennett, MAHA's avatar

It's not silly. Marijuana use is increasingly shown to be linked to mental problems like schizophrenia.

This isn't just our grandparents' "Reefer Madness."

The police and the medical examiners never release the results from the tox screen the shooters were on.

The Allegheny County, PA is refusing to release the results from the autopsy on the shooter in Butler, PA even though it falls under right to know laws.

As of March 2023, the United States and New Zeland are the only 2 countries in the world that allow Big Pharma to advertise on television. If that doesn't tell us all we need to know...

Dawn B's avatar

I am disgusted seeing repeated pharma commercials when I watch the tv... the little I watch... sponsored by Pfizer...

Kathleen Janoski's avatar

One of the reasons why I tossed the TV - I hate commercials.

Elaine Russky's avatar

I heard on one of Tucker's shows that pharma doesn't need to advertise, but their payments for tv ads gives them control over what the tv stations show the public.

Leah Rose's avatar

And most of that ad $ in the U.S. funds news programs. No wonder we don’t get the real story.

BBS's avatar

There are so many things wrong with the way this country operates that I don't know how to separate them.

rolandttg's avatar

Mrs. Mantle's avatar

From 1988 to about 2002 I lived in a spiritual community and did not watch tv, read news, see movies - none of that. I was deep into spiritual studies and the community. When I left, one of the most shocking things to me about how "the world" had changed was the ads for drugs on TV. It was so absurd, stupid, and a little scary. The ads made no sense and beyond that, being anti drug anyway, it felt like a huge darkness was at hand. I've since learned that those ads are not meant to make sense, they are buying control of content.

Robin Greer's avatar

And any PCP can put you on them. We had a woman from church who was almost committed suicide because her doctor placed her on psych drugs and keep increasing the dose. Like many other cases, her doctor told her to keep taking them and it would take her body several weeks to adjust to the medication. She was having a severe adverse reaction which another doctor caught and immediately stopped the medication which is dangerous in and of itself. But the Pharma companies know that once a person starts on these medications, they will likely be on them for the rest of their lives and they will need other medications for the side effects of the first medication.

Robin Greer's avatar

Epoch Times American Thought Leaders interviewed Kim Witzak whose husband committed suicide after being placed on a psych drug for insomnia. He felt like he was losing his mind, but the doctors have been told by the Pharma reps that this is normal and tell them to keep taking the drugs. He hung himself. If you haven't seen any of the interviews with her, look for them. I can't remember the drug but it may have been Paxil. This was in the 90's and it's still going on today.

Freebird's avatar

I know of three people who committed suicide while on a psych drug, two of whom were taking Prozac; I don’t know what the other person was on, but he was on some type of drug. They are ALL dangerous.

Donna B's avatar

I have a neighbor who hung himself outside on a tree. He had just started taking a new medication for depression. I don’t know which one though.

liz's avatar

tragic! these drug makers belong in PRISON

Kathleen Janoski's avatar

Even drugs like Singulair (montelukast) for asthma, can cause thoughts of suicide and mental health issues.

BTW, the drug has a FDA black box warning on it.

Kitkat's avatar

I was chatting with a friend the other day about evil Big Pharma and the black box warnings on drugs. Her flippant reply was "They all do"... so I guess that makes it all OK? *insert eye roll here*

Kathleen Janoski's avatar

You should tell her that the black box is the strongest warning for the drug before it is actually pulled.

But, she probably wouldn't listen.

Melissa S's avatar

I have never, ever had a doctor warn about possible side effects from a prescription. Probably because they themselves do not know about the potential side effects. All most do is read the promotional literature given them from the pharmaceutical company drug reps. Everything is "safe & effective" these days. After-all, the FDA would not have approved them if they weren't. Until the dangerous drugs are pulled off the market after the damage has been done, lives destroyed, and Pharma has had the opportunity to rake in the big bucks.

AngelaK's avatar

I always do a Google search (much easier than reading the inserts).

Peter Schott's avatar

I'll usually skim the inserts for the "possible side effects" - partly because I was hit by Zithromyacin's side effects way back in the day. After that I started pushing back for "just give me the old/tested/standard drugs, even if they're 'not as good' as the new ones". Also started pushing for generics because they're cheaper and have been around for a while.

MaryAnn's avatar

The pharmacists know about side effects and drug-food-supplement interactions. But now you have to ask specific questions about side effects, etc. The information is not volunteered anymore. I suspect the prescribers rely on, or have passed the buck to, pharmacists to discuss potential “pHarms”.

rolandttg's avatar

A drug that is massively of book prescribed, but horrible, is Gabapentin. My mother in law was taking it decades ago, and I could see then it was bad. Our dogs have been prescribed it. You would be amazed how many people have/are taking it. It is found in the system of 10 % of people who OD'd. It is very effective at boosting the efficiency (strength) of other drugs, allowing the master quacks to use lower doses of the main drug. Horrible drug, and it was one of the 5 found in our daughter's system.

Kathleen Janoski's avatar

Thank you for that warning. I was unaware.

David A's avatar

One must always be careful with combining medications. Gabepitin has very low side effects compared to most pain medications.

Mrs. Mantle's avatar

Oh no. I gave it to my cat for quite some time.

Peter Schott's avatar

My oldest has no issues with it, but my youngest definitely had some mental reactions for the 1-2 days she took it. My wife stopped that ASAP. We have a friend whose kid stayed on it for much longer and it did permanently alter her psyche. :(

AngelaK's avatar

What drug? It gets hard to follow these threads sometimes.

Mrs. Mantle's avatar

Reading all the replies to your post really drives home the fact that these drugs are horrible and it's not like the pharmaceuticals don't know it.

rolandttg's avatar

Most true. Our daughter went cold turkey on two of these drugs due to bad side effects, and both times she had a terrible reaction, and I think , permanent brain damage. Like prednisone, you are not supposed to just stop taking these toxins. I read a story on RT a few years ago about a man who was taking Clonazapam, one of the poisons our daughter took and stopped. He tried to commit suiciide twice, and spent considerable effort trying to find a monster psych who could help him wean off it. He finally gave up, flew to Russia, and found a doc there who helped him.

None, I mean none of these monster shrinks are taught how to get patients off these toxins, And worse, there is absolutely no criterion for prescribing them. Totally at his/ her discretion. I wouldn't trade a cup of warm spit for all the psychologists, (quacks, murderers) endocrinologists(quacks, one trick ponies) , pediatricians,(money grubbing bounty hunter whores) and oncologists(quacks, money grubbing murderers) in the world.

liz's avatar

I usually tell my people to go online for the tytration schedule and get an MD to sign off on it. then I make them call to check in EVERY DAY. and journal about the memories that are coming up. One day at a time. there are facebook groups too of people coming off these criminal drugs.

one bad day and you could lose them.

Renee Marie's avatar

Here’s the CURE for nearly everything: Get off your ass, walk outside, get as far away from human beings as you can-Nature! Leave the ear buds and cell phone at home/in your car.

Disconnect from society for a while each day, or as much as possible. And do not forget SUNSHINE with no sunscreen (people have been lied to about the sun)!

Ground yourself: walk in the grass/dirt/sand.

And it’s FREE!

Dangerous Drugs: In truth, no one really understands how dangerous ANY drug is. In many cases, such as with statins, the purported 'benefit' is not even a benefit at all. All risk, no reward.

The book Bad Therapy touches on this (and SSRIs). The author had an excellent interview with Joe Rogan. Well worth the listen.

medical malpractice is in top 3. so to recap, stay away from hospitals, doctors, and just say no to drugs. remember, if you dont get a 'test', there isn't anything wrong with you.

Iatrogenic deaths (deaths from medical treatment) is now the number one cause of death. And I’ll bet this does not include vaccine deaths, although of course it should.

Joanne Shannon's avatar

Vaccine deaths = iatrogenicide

it should include cancer deaths too. then doctors become #1 cause of death, by a landslide

Bob Bichen's avatar

To a certain degree. You should not make that such a blanket statement. Discernment is necessary in taking care of your health, otherwise you may die prematurely.

agree completely

RJ Rambler's avatar

You may have forgotten to mention medical malpractice which includes botched surgical and misdiagnosed.

I read a letter to editor many years ago where a coroner complained about budget cutbacks on autopsies. He explained in 75% of autopsies they discovered that they could have saved the deceased if the attending doctors had correctly diagnosed in time before death.

Fre'd Bennett, MAHA's avatar

My RN wife used to be on a raft of pharmaceutical Rx's (just like everyone else.) But because of the COVID Scamdemic and what I learned from it, I started talking to her after learning how dangerous they are (specifically SSRIs).

It took a long time but she very slowly weaned herself from these horrible drugs. Today, she - like me - is completely Rx free.

We just had a friend whose full term baby died shortly after birth. In the USA. Lack of oxygen. As for whether the mom had the V? I do not know. Small rural Idaho, older mom (so high risk pregnancy, but has 2 healthy teens). It was a surprise pregnancy and full term. So, WTH?

RunningLogic's avatar

Yes doctors styled themselves as the “experts” and pushed all kinds of interventions and unnatural birth positions. They denigrated midwives and got the public to believe that doctors were more “qualified.” But outcomes are not very good and care is extremely expensive with this system so it’s not been a beneficial change at all 😕

Based Florida Man's avatar

I don't think anything makes me angrier than people vaxxing infants.

Rebecca's avatar

What I don't understand is this:

At about 1 year of age, you start giving a child solid food. It is recommended that you try one food item at a time, in small amounts four times to check for adverse reactions before it can be deemed safe for the kid. Then you go on to the next type of food.

But you're telling me is okay to give a baby at 2, 4, and 6 months 5 or 6 different vaccines ALL AT ONCE! (Not even counting the Hep B vax they get IMMEDIATELY after being born!)

I have never gotten a good response from a medical professional on this.

Natalie's avatar

Yes...and when you're pregnant they tell you not to eat tuna bc of mercury but then inject babies with it.

I wish I had listened to my concerned in-laws and never injected my children. I have always been against psych meds especially in kids but never thought how illogical my support and faith in shots was...

I to this day believe 2 of my children are v injured (my daughter by the gardasil...chronic migraine crohns and IDA and my adopted son around 2 yrs old after being drug exposed and delayed began ASD symptoms )

I'm thankful for the rona ...bc I may have never woken up to the evil of most pharm meds and alllll the shots...

HOLY CRAP. I'd be fuming

Debbie Wagner's avatar

My daughter’s neighbor lost their first born, a daughter, who had a fatal seizure shortly after a vax injection. These neighbors went on to have two sons and now the youngest is having “unexplained” seizures.

They still have not connected to dots. I pray their little boy survives.

Juju's avatar

This is so true and more people need to travel the rabbit holes to learn just how true it is! My health with prescriptions was deteriorating at the rate of an untied balloon emptying its contents. Now today devoid of all prescriptions and having adopted a truly therapeutic diet, I’m healthier than I have been in 30 years.

For those still unawares, the way they combat the natural remedies that threaten their golden egg is to find doctors and medical professionals to discount claims and spread fear. Remember the commercials for cigarettes? How many doctors smoked Camrls?? Two years ago I noticed a book released called “Food is Not Medicine”. (The hell it isn’t!! I’m walking proof it is.) They found a very young, unseasoned doctor to author it. It was pure propaganda meant to scare anyone into relying on lifestyle changes and food choices to replace medicine. And since a doctor wrote it, oh well - expert! I will only agree that 1% of the population will have certain situations that DO require prescription meds, (which they were initially created for,) and I don’t believe those rare instances can do better without them. What I don’t agree with is how pharma broadens the target populace to try to convince that 50% or more would benefit. They actually had a campaign to start giving statins to teens and children! Hell most adults don’t need them! In a sane, first do no harm world, prescription drugs should be the last line of defense, not the first. Allopathic medicine makes them the first, and then a whole host of additional symptoms and conditions stem from using them first while the root causes are never treated.

Trauma surgeon here (so the meds I prescribe are mostly pain meds temporarily or antibiotics), also I’m a DO. 20+ years ago in medical school when I was doing rotations, I had an awesome family practitioner who taught me that on patients with long lists of medications, you should see what meds you can eliminate. It’s like you put a patient on a med for something, then they have a side effect, then you add a med to combat the side effect, and on and on.

I finally took charge of my own situation re thyroid. Last summer the PA attending was completely open to the idea, but (other--just a voice on phone) nurse announcing results of blood tests claimed my "numbers were" whatever, so I must stay on prescription. My suspicion: the various PA's in the practice meet daily with their MD/OD "handlers"; are told to keep patients on drugs. Finally in December, a comment from a "Virginia"--whom I have not seen here since--gave me the courage to begin. So I decreased the dosage to 90% for 9 weeks, then to 80% for 9 weeks. Now at 40%. Have been very closely watching my body's reaction. So far, only positive. Feel rather as though I had let doctor make me poison myself for 30 years.

Victoria's avatar

I may be "Virginia"..actually I get that alot. I remember the thread and conversation then. The decrease dosage was told to me by my doctor about 3-4 years ago, and I have never been back. She told me to reduce my intake by 1/4 tablet and wait for 2 months, see how that went, then the next 1/4 tab, etc. Except I waited another week or so, each time, just to be sure. So, yes, it took nearly a year. I had been on it for 20 years! But I feel as you do, that wow, I had let my doctor decide all that time.

ViaVeritasVita's avatar

It was indeed you! Thank you for jumping in, for correcting my memory of your name. You apparently (from my body's reaction) have done me a very, very great service. And I'd been on that stuff for over 30 years. Will go one step further, in case another reader benefits, as I did from your comment (as have wanted the opportunity to share this)---it was a reproductive endocrinologist (first 3 babies weren't enough, but I was getting less young) who found in me a goiter. So he prescribed levothyroxine. Now my understanding is that the goiter of a struggling-too-hard thyroid gland is the result of insufficient dietary iodine. But instead of saying, "Go eat fish several times a week and see me again in 6-8 weeks--he prescribed a drug. And we "understand" that allopaths are not the most trusted voices for nutrition. Further, I had then always been using "iodized' salt--some years later changed to sea salt (cuz, why are saltwater fish and seaweed such a great source of iodine.....) because it's actually kind of sweet, and iodized salt is definitely bitter--and the yellow prussiate of soda on label was too close to cyanide in my not-a-chemist's brain. So along with the very slow decrease in drug use, I have been eating salt water fish a few times a week. And, having been taking those tablets cut in pieces, I can taste the drug and wonder what is the sweetness-taste in this stuff? Again, Victoria, I owe you deepest thanks.

Victoria's avatar

Oh, I am so happy to hear that you and Fred Bennett's wife are doing well! I read here every day, but don't say much. I have never heard of this method anywhere; it was only that one time from my doctor.

I read about the excipients of Synthroid once and the article said there was saccharine, and gluten among other things which I have mercifully forgotten. I just kept telling myself to keep going, as things were getting better.

During that year, and a little after, I really did not feel any different but kept looking for "evidence" one way or another. I can't say I found any, but I worried about iodine too. I experimented with it but felt awful. So I stopped. I think just eating a whole-food thing, like a fish is better. I I like the taste of gray Celtic sea salt, and don't worry about conflicting reports of this or that bad thing which may be in it.

It was an endocrinologist who got me involved in the first place. And all the testing and scans and "I'll watch you like a hawk" to make sure something worse didn't happen, etc. I fell for it all. The thing they didn't say was that a struggling thyroid can be a normal fluctuation, or a poisoning from something, or an emotional issue, or bad nutrition, etc. There are many things to consider, and that would change what one does to fix the problem.

The doctor who told me to reduce the dose was just a country doctor which I discovered had been in the same college at the same time as I.....so we were sharing memories and it was "just two girls talking". I doubt that was an official protocol!

Disease is not caused by pharmaceutical deficiency. No chronic condition can possibly be cured by introduction of petroleum derived synthetic chemicals. Statins are 100% a scam with nothing but downsides that lower so-called "bad cholesterol" which isn't bad and is there for a reason. And lowering it doesn't improve the imbalance that caused it to go high, it just masks a symptom. Furthermore, there is no level of any type of cholesterol that is appropriate for every human.

Now, pharma has a place. I mean, I don’t want to get in a car wreck and not have anesthesia, or antibiotics. Would it be better for diabetics not to have access to insulin? I agree in principle with what you said, that Big Pharma is ridiculously huge and does significant harm, especially when it comes to ‘managing chronic comditons’, but modern medicine does have some wonderful aspects.

I put managing chronic conditions in quotes because I feel like a large portion of that is covering up root causes by alleviating symptoms with drugs that have unknown long term side effects. And also that these conditions are based on blood work population averages that keep getting adjusted downward. That’s where I see a lot of the Pharma corruption.

"Would it be better for diabetics not to have access to insulin?"

Yes, it would. Addressing insulin resistance by pouring more insulin is EXACTLY like trying to extinguish a house fire with gasoline.

Susanna Bythesea's avatar

What would be the alternative, for type 1 diabetes? I don’t have it but a dear friend does and I’ve always wondered if it’s possible to heal from type 1.

Heterodox Introvert's avatar

Personal philosophy, maybe not your cup of tea. Offered from outside the box.

Possible to heal from type 1? Well, categorically saying or embracing "impossible" per western/allopathic medicine isn't helpful. There are other philosophies and technologies that have been suppressed, particularly over the course of the 20c in the name of preserving/reserving profits for Rockefeller medicine. Historically there are individuals who have been ruined reputationally and financially for using and promoting their methods for treatment, healing and cure. Some have been targeted and met with strange, untimely deaths. One of the more recent is Dr. Rashid Buttar.

There is loads of information out there and the blessing of the internet that isn't yet entirely under the control of the censors. Seeking/finding is up to the individual, isn't it? Regarding your friend, "You can bring a horse to water..." -?

I don't know if you've ever heard of the early 20c inventor Nikola Tesla. Musk's company, Tesla, was named by its previous owner-founders in honor of said early 20c inventor. Tesla was a bright light, not just in my opinion. His story is a sad one; though not related to medicine it bears similarities to those alluded to above. There is an attribution from a hundred years ago to Nikola Tesla (paraphrased), ~ If you want to find the secrets of the universe think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration. ~ Humans are part of the universe. Not only that, but humans are already determined to be energy beings. To wit: EEG, EKG, EMG, PET, MRI technologies to name a few all involve measuring energy in the body on the electromagnetic spectrum. In my opinion, energy medicine/frequency medicine (both involve vibration) are the future of medicine, but the technologies are outside of the pharma industry.

As said, outside the box. If one is open, you never know what "miracles" might await.

Your mileage may vary.

Fre'd Bennett, MAHA's avatar

I honestly don't know.

But insulin does the following: (1) stops or *drastically* slows your metabolism, i.e. "fat burning"; (2) stores blood glucose as fat in your liver; (3) increases your insulin resistance.

All of which is why insulin dependent T2 diabetics get fatter, and sicker until they start requiring amputations of toes, etc.

Type 1 diabetics are the opposite of Type 2. For whatever reason, their pancreas manufactures insufficient natural insulin, so perhaps they're not insulin resistant like Type 2's.

When the hormone insulin was first discovered, it was a lifesaver for Type 1s because it helped stop their metabolism and let them storestore necessary fat. (Til that point Type 1 victims just became skinnier and skinnier, until they died.)

I escaped because my hospitalists were "baffled" after they kept feeding me high carb food, and my blood glucose wouldn't drop, and so I simply refused to eat the desserts, waffles, etc.

(These idiots had no fucking clue about high glucose meals and the relationship to high blood glucose.)

Within 10 days my blood sugar was approaching normal.

I wish I could point you to better resource to answer your question.

Catholic school with a bunch of nuns in the late 1960s here. We were forced outside every school day for at least a 30-minute recess, in the rain/sun/snow/ice, and most of the "fidgety" kids were able to run off their fidget so that the classrooms were fairly calm.

In my opinion, exposure to sunshine (which stimulates the production of Vit D by the body) is key.

I agree. Kids need more recess time. When I was a kid in elementary school, I got three recesses a day. One mid-morning. One after I ate lunch. And one in the afternoon. Now kids in our school district only get the minutes left over after they hastily eat their lunch. And most classroom teachers struggle with behavior in their classrooms.

RunningLogic's avatar

My son’s private school (he is now 13 and homeschooled) did 3 recesses for elementary too. They weren’t always very long (i think 15-20 minutes for morning and later day and 30 after lunch) but it helped burn off some energy. I liked that.

I would say that big pharma has also suppressed and demonized “little pharma”. “Little pharma” being older well established inexpensive/generic drugs that have proven safe over time. Like ivermectin, vitamin d.

Regarding psych meds, interestingly I listened to a podcast (by Dr. Sam Sigaloff, FP doc who stood against covid policies/vaccines) talking about sublingual low dose ketamine being neuro reparative. Possibly over time causing people to not require their mainstream psych meds. Essentially “curing” their mental illness. Big pharma definitely wouldn’t like that.

Does that mean Islam is defending itself better than Christianity, therefore is the truth?

I agree the truth will be revealed. But how many will know it? For that matter, how can any of us reliably identify it? While some propaganda, like the COVID official narrative, are easy to spot as lies from the beginning, sometimes there are competing narratives that seem reasonable, and even discerning, open-minded people struggle to identify the correct one.

Willing Spirit's avatar

Really good summary video. I agree 100%.

I pray for President Trump continuously and for Melania and the family and am utterly amazed at their commitment and endurance.

President Reagan is so revered by so many, but his children were a nightmare, from his prancing, leftist dancer son, Ron, Jr. to his strange lefty daughter, Maureen. The only one who seemed to have any common sense was the adopted son, Michael, who was apparently ostracized by the family.

Nancy, Reagan’s beloved wife, was a strange piece of work as well, unless that was just the media’s twisted, perverted reporting. But I had gotten pretty good at reading between the lines In regards to media reporting even then, and she seemed to have ‘wobbly’ values. She was mother to the prancing dancer leftist son, and seemed an indifferent step-mother to the other two.

I’m not that far from Trump in age and I know he needs prayer. I’m exhausted just thinking about what he does.

But in regards to the ‘he is faltering’ reports? Where are they coming from, and who benefits from them?

I’m super busy right now trying to bring my old house into shape so it will last and sustain through my ‘winter years’, so I’m not following the rallies as closely as I have through the years, but when I do tune in, I see DJT speaking for 90 minutes or more to tens of thousands.p

What is the faltering? I’m sure the lying media is pushing such a narrative, but is there any truth there?

And like the end of this video proclaims, there is definitely something providential happening here. Trump is not standing on his own.

That’s what I think.

“All the tools we see used now against Trump, Shepard claimed, including stolen elections, were developed to overthrow anti-communist Nixon, who at the time —prepare to be shocked— was working on reducing the CIA’s powers.”

I had just finished my freshmen year of college when Watergate broke with the hearings for many of us. I had voted for Richard Nixon in 1972, my first time to vote, and my first and only time voting absentee, as I was at college the time of the election. I remember watching bits and pieces of the hearings, seeing John Dean and thinking he was the only good looking one of the bunch and his pretty wife, Mo, shown on camera often. After Nixon resigned and the rest went to prison or resigned, I thought it was a scandal that only happened in Washington DC. I was partially correct, it happened over and over again, we just didn’t know. I am reading a book on the battle of Shiloh from the Civil War. I was struck at how political so many decisions made were. If people actually knowledgeable about military matters had been allowed to carry out plans, we might have had different outcomes. Throughout history, “everything old is new again”, and “those who do not learn from history, are doomed to repeat it”. Unfortunately, we keep finding history was often subterfuge, and smoke & mirrors.

Tucker Interview? It's required listening/watching.

Although I found it hard to follow all the moving parts (people, places, etc) due to the complexity, I did get the gist of it.

Nothing much changes. And the same kind of blow the reporters up in heros and devil the contrivance, the dissimulating. Absolutely fascinating.

It was a bit mind-blowing to hear the parallels between sabotaging Nixon and the job being done on DJT. Nixon believed in the system and that the truth would come out.

Sadly, he did not live to see the documentary or read the books about the traitors in his admin.

I remember reading something years ago, like maybe just pre-covid, about the CIA connection and not even being surprised, but feeling sorry for the family - even though I'm sure they were not perfect (even if they were dressed and groomed to look that way).

Elon is THE GOAT!! Crazy that 2 billionaires both decided to save our country (and the world for that matter) by putting themselves in between us and the deep state. Gives me hope for what’s to come.

Valerie's avatar

I know a lot of people are suspicious of Elon’s motives, but I really like his actions of the last few years. His commitment to free speech has the potential to change everything. Will he become what we hate in the future? Possibly. But based on his actions I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Rosalind McGill's avatar

I like him but don’t trust him in the big picture.

Long Enough?'s avatar

The big picture? You can’t get any bigger picture than his conversations with Trump, DeSantis and Ramaswamy. 2 years ago none of them would have been able to get their message out on X. Under Zuck, Trump was banned. What about the Twitter files? How about telling France to buzz off when they tried to force him to censor speech? And now this week that twit from the UK.

He has a very successful car company and gets ZERO government subsidies yet is being sued by them. He creates Starlink which brings the internet to millions of people around the world. He even unrestricted many of his Tesla tech patents so other companies could help to evolve the industry.

C’mon, you’re buying into the anti-Musk propaganda. Remember, we don’t have to agree with EVERY person on EVERY issue. It’s should be a sum a of all parts. In my opinion, Musk has had a very positive impact on fighting the globalists.

Long Enough?'s avatar

I forgot to mention that the gov hates him so much that they gave BOEING the Starliner contract which is now DOA at the space station. SpaceX has been delivering extra food, clothing and supplies while NASA sits on its hands. As Jeff would say, “so.”

Bill Campbell's avatar

I do not believe NASA is sitting on its hands. They are incompetent and incapable. Unfortunately most likely the direct result of the same thing afflicting Boeing and Starliner: DEI.

liz's avatar

Musk does not appear to be a DEI fan. so...definitely not a fan of the Trans agenda.

Jack Bergeron's avatar

Tax credits gave Tesla the impetus it needed to survive and thrive. Who else gets permission to use NASA’s launch facilities? Central Bank Digital Currency needs worldwide internet access being provided by Musk’s Starlink satellites. The deep state players are extreme masters of deception and deviousness.

MaryAnn's avatar

I seriously doubt Tesla’s tax credits were a gift. Nothing is ever gifted when there are large amounts of money to be made. I suspect the tax credits came with strings attached and Musk weighed his options/counted the cost.

Bob Bichen's avatar

Also, don't forget Musk's involvement in transhumanism.

79SmithW60's avatar

I think that is why the Dems hold control so closely to the government (public) school system and the power and influence that it wields on the future of the country. They purposefully do not teach actual skills, and specifically critical thinking. If kids were still taught to critically think, they would at least have a chance to not completely fall for all of the popular culture (tranny, gay, climate cult lies, and the like). Gone are the days of the heavy metal t-shirts and jeans. The decline has been purposefully accelerated.

ViaVeritasVita's avatar

Just (an hour ago) finished 3rd Latin lesson by Skype with young granddaughter in England. Did same with her older sister last year. Watching a child's face light up because she is actually getting to think, and to draw conclusions, is a gift to me. And a very negative comment on their (private!) school education.

liz's avatar

thank you for doing that! I LOVED Latin, but dont remember the critical thinking piece..

ViaVeritasVita's avatar

I suspect that it did not happen. Certainly was not part of my own Latin learning experience. But as a teacher of Latin....I was able to choose to do differently. And do still. Though now only with grandchildren on two continents.

Kalinda's avatar

Latin roots for words was an incredibly good critical thinking skills lesson. Try "mal" and see what you come up with.

79SmithW60's avatar

Awesome! Latin is or should be a foundational root of all education in my opinion. We home school and Latin is a part of our curriculum. Wish I had it when I went to government (taxpayer funded) school.

Sometimes the private schools can be nearly as bad as government schools; it all hinges on the teachers, the curriculum and the "administration" of the school.

Competition in schools should be incorporated, so that the money follows the student. It would improve all schools if parents had more choice, which is why Dems (and RINOs) really don't like competition, because it affects their campaign donation coffers. No one has more interest in the education of their children/grandchildren than the parents and grandparents.

The saving part is in God's hands and, if His Word is any guide, this will only come about through Judgement and hard times.

Juju's avatar

I don’t believe any of us believe these two are going to “save our country”. We all believe someone needs to help the American people to “start” saving our country, and that will never start if the current administration (behind the scenes,) remains in power. Between now and November we don’t have the time to develop from the grass roots an unmarred, wholesome, uncorrupted, honest person to rise through the ranks to take the reins of power. We see Trump, Vance, and supporters like Musk and Tucker as key to “starting” something necessary to save our Republic. We all still need to be working on the grass roots in the meantime.

Karmy's avatar

I see them as tools being used by God to move the people. Trump ripped the mask off showing people what was going on behind the curtain. If not for him, we would be further down the evil one’s path. Praise be to God! He is so good to us and we do not deserve it. His mercy is unlimited.

https://www.houstonpress.com/news/former-harris-county-employee-faces-criminal-charges-over-2022-election-18725649

Houston TX DA charges county employee for 6 felony counts related to the “paper ballot shortage” in 2022 election.

Apparently, this loser was in change of providing ballots to the county and worked full time from home. Then, he took a 2nd full time job paying twice as much that required him to work in person. So, he collected a pay check from the county working invisibly, remote, obviously with no supervision, and then collected a second paycheck in person.

In the 2022 election, he decided to send the same amount of paper ballots to 98% of the precincts. Then the chaos and sued when they systematically ran out of paper ballots.

This is an example of the fools that we have employed in government.

DeAnna's avatar

I am a precinct chair in Harris County (belly of the beast). I was a presiding judge on Election Day 2022. My precinct is primarily Conservative Republican and we were not provided enough ballot paper by these criminals. This guy is a small fish in the larger pool of snakes. Lina Hidalgo and Rodney Eli’s run Harris County and they need to be held accountable!

Johnny Be Real's avatar

I hope so! This DA lost the primary and is out the door, so I’m thinking the charges must be 100% obvious for her to use energy at the end of her term perusing it. But, the investigation has probably been going since 2022 anyway. I don’t care which party, prosecutors need to go after all election fraud and interference.

This may be correct for some places, but in suburban Cook County voters may choose to use paper ballots, which don't depend on the internet. ( What happens to leftover ballots I know not. )

I am an election judge in Ravalli County Montana. We use paper ballots and our chain of custody rules are very strict. Every ballot is numbered that corresponds to the number stamped on the election roll as the voter signs in after showing ID. At end of night numbers and ballots must match. Remaining ballots are secured and returned to the election administrator.

People need to do some research. Musk has deep ties to DARPA. Twitter is "free" (which it isn't really - they visibility filter what they want you to see/not see) - because they want all the data they can get on you. He wants to mimic/recreate the chinese app that is a catchall for social media, banking, etc. Starlink is used in the Ukraine conflict. Starlink will be used to monitor our every movement. Places I used to mt. bike in the middle of nowhere with no reception now have reception. It is nearly inescapable at this point.

Anita from Tucson - Now In MI's avatar

I have to ask, because you make very good points:

Is there a place or purpose where DARPA would be a good thing, in your opinion?

Johnny-O's avatar

Good question and fair. I would imagine, ostensibly there may be "good" things they are working on, but then we would have to assume that these powerful entities are actually working for us/on our side and not with the oligarchs/permanent state actors - which seems like a huge leap of faith.

I think their response to that would be that there are too many stupid people who can't tell the difference between falsehood and truth. That is the entire argument for censorship. And our entire - and much more valid - argument is, who determines “truth”?

And WA sends ballots (with Spanish translations) to anyone with a driver’s license and and address, both of which people entering the America illegally can have.

St. Alia the Knife's avatar

Good ol' motor-voter law. When I turned 18, I had to show my birth certificate and my driver's license to register to vote! Of course, that was before WA was "californicated"!

Mrs. "the Knife"

Michelle's avatar

Yes, in fact, the DMV is forbidden from asking (by state law) the citizenship status of those seeking to get a driver’s license. And then thanks to Bill Clinton’s Motor Voter law, they are asked if the would like to register to vote while getting their licenses. They have to sign something that says they are legally allowed to vote, which many probably don’t understand. It is totally on the honor system. Some really liberal DMV locations (i.e. King County) will just automatically register them to vote without asking. And then the ballots are mailed out en masse. First time immigrant voters will generally vote for whoever has the big shiny D next to their name because “D means Democracy.” Don’t have a ballot? That’s okay because the state had even accepted votes written on a disposable paper napkin. WA is truly lost, I fear there is no possible return here. Most of the republicans here are RINOs, including the current republican candidate for governor. If he wins, there will be few changes if any here. If Bob Ferguson (current lawless state AG) wins, things will get worse than in Inslee’s current 12-year reign of terror. We had a good republican candidate in Semi Bird, but our supposed conservative reporters smeared him with false claims of stolen valor.

Principled Pragmatist's avatar

Former Buckeye here … the commonly held view when I was there was that Ohio elections were much safer and honest than its neighboring states (Illinois, Pennsylvania). Reason being, the state house and legislature tended to pretty consistently swing back-and-forth between red and blue. That was borne out by Ohio one of the 2 Bellwether states (Ohio since 1904, and then Florida being added in the 1950s). Trump won Ohio by around 9 points in 2020.

Florida really tightened up its election security after the 2000 election.

No one voted for Thierry Breton. EU commissioners are simply appointed by their home countries. I hope he didn't use the word Democracy in his diatribe.

The president of the EU commission, Ursula von der Leyen, has held several ministerial posts in Germany, failing at all of them and her last posting as defense minister was so marred in scandal that she was shipped off to the EU where the countries dump all the politicians that are too toxic to keep in-country. That would be great if it simply was a debate club with zero power.

African Gray's can string together words in order to convey what they want. Alex, the African Gray, created a portmanteau to express his desire for an apple: "Want banerry." "Banerry" being a portmanteau of banana and cherry that he applied to apples. Banana to convey size, cherry to convey color, and they're both things he liked to eat.

The difference is that Kamala strings together words in order to sound important. A future unburdened by the past is effect unburdened by cause. It's an absurdity. People who pretend it's wisdom are doing so because they don't want to appear foolish to their tribe.

Robin Greer's avatar

Always remember, the point of prophecy is to warn people to repent be it in the Old Testament or Revelation. We are not to be caught up in the "when will it happen" or even the "what will I say." See vs 14 & 15 below

Luke 21: 10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven. 12 “But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will hand you over to synagogues and put you in prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name. 13 And so you will bear testimony to me. 14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15 For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. 16 You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17 Everyone will hate you because of me. 18 But not a hair of your head will perish. 19 Stand firm, and you will win life. 20 “When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. 22 For this is the time of punishment in fulfillment of all that has been written. 23 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. 24 They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. 25 “There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. 26 People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 27 At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”

AngelaK's avatar

Indeed scary. In the early Christian persecutions, the stories of many martyred saints have been handed down through the Orthodox and Roman Catholic traditions. In standing up for Christ, they endured horrible tortures, but before the end, many times God gave them words which confounded the magistrates and miraculous restorations which confounded their torturers.

Juju's avatar

Amazing how those verses read today in 2024 sound so clear and understandable, and relatable, unlike any other time on my 59 years. Ears to hear and eyes to see definitely have been given.

Politico Phil's avatar

Let me ask a question or two. What is the most significant event in human history since The Fall? The answer is the incarnation of God the Son, His sacrifice and His ascension as the Son of Man to the throne of God to reign over history as the King of kings and Lord of lords and of whose reign there shall be no end. And what is the sole purpose of God's Revelation but to point us to Christ? Then why is it that we so quickly ignore the context in which God's delivers His Revelation to us?

The dialogue that Jesus delivers in Luke 21:5-36 is book-ended at the front with v.6, “These things which you see—the days will come in which not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down” and then concluded with v.36, "Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

If you were there listening to the Messiah, how would you understand what Jesus is saying? "These things which YOU see... that YOU may be counted worthy..." Jesus was warning His audience of what was to come to pass in their lifetimes: "Assuredly, I say to YOU, this generation will by no means pass away till ALL things take place." Unless Jesus was misleading His listeners, He was speaking to the generation that would see the Days of Vengeance: "For these are the days of vengeance, that ALL things which are written may be fulfilled." And what are "all things which are written"? These are the prophecies of the Word of God in the Old Testament.

Allow me to quote from an exposition of the book of Revelation by David Chilton which I think anyone would find fruitful. As people have done in the past, many today want to apply the prophetic scriptures such as Revelation to their current times. Writing of Ezekiel's description in chapters 16 and 23 of "the Bride's apostasy from her divine Husband", David Chilton writes, "The same was true of Israel in the first century. At the very moment when the promised Bridegroom arrived, Israel was fornicating with Caesar. The sight of her true Husband only drove her further into adulterous union with "the kings of the earth." Rejecting Christ's kingship (cf. 1 Sam. 8:7-8), the chief priests cried: "We have no King but Caesar!" (John 19:15). The apostasy of Jerusalem led the whole nation into religious and political fornication."

Page 428 of "The Days of Vengeance: An Exposition of the Book of Revelation" by David Chilton.

The imagery of Israel's adultery is fairly common in the prophets, as they bring God's Covenant Lawsuit against the Bride who has abandoned her Husband. As St. John tells us in 18:24, "in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints and of all who have been slain on the earth." First century Israel was the Harlot and Jerusalem was the Harlot-City that John was warning would be judged and destroyed and the Temple torn down such that not one stone was left upon another as Jesus warned earlier.

I highly recommend Chilton's exposition and his smaller book, "The Great Tribulation".

There’s a great awakening in the Christian world. Mr. Childers, always believe and quote what the prophets foretold would happen. The Bible is the inspired Word of God. It’s still God’s World. We don’t know the day nor the hour Jesus will come. Everyone I talk to expect it to happen soon! I likewise. It’s our hour to “win the lost at any cost.” All the world events are lining up with Scripture. We have a blessed hope to tell the world! “The darker the night the brighter the light shines. I’m walking with Jesus the light of the world. Yes, He is the light! In Him is no darkness. The darker the night; the brighter the light when I’m walking with Him.” I cannot tell you the author of the song but that just came to me as I text.

It's only now that someone can truly control all buying and selling worldwide that much of prophecy can be fulfilled. 50 years ago I couldn't imagine how that could be done.

Digital money, we are very close to that sunsandwind. Everyone will be 'paid' with digital deposits, all spending will be digital, and you can only purchase what the king will allow you to purchase. Not unlike prisons today, prisoners receive so many credits to spend in the commissary and are limited in what they can purchase.

A friend who is a top biblical scholar with one specialty in end times taught us to be watchful but extremely careful as we see current events. "Newspaper exegesis" (interpretation) is often, if not usually, wrong.

For instance, a Bible study group--not one of his--I was in also had done lots of study on end times. One key piece we saw was the preparation of items for the new temple to be built on the original site. Many were all excited. THE TIME WAS HERE! But I pointed out that a key part of the OT prophesy, is all the Jews being back in Israel and with their new hearts. They are not yet. AND, just because Israel exists as a nation now, doesn't mean the Jews won't be driven out again before end times.

I'm not saying it will happen, just that an awful lot of nations are working to make that happen, and so many need a change of heart to return to God and serve Him like He called His people to do.

So, we remain vigilant, watchful, with our lamps lit and extra oil available. We also need to remain gentle as doves but wise as serpents through all this uncertainty and insanity.

The difference is some people look for a way to fit the scripture in with the times. They force it to fit. Instead, we should put no effort at all into it, and just be watchful; recognize when the times are actually fitting scripture without any effort or calisthenics.

Well said, and they will be difficult. We are told so.

What makes me think that we are in end times (which could be 50 or 100 years) is:

1. the digital and chip technology (anti Christ, buying and selling, mark of the beast)

2: the extent to which all the crazy leftist sins are accepted as normal, which is above and beyond anything anyone has ever seen in almost two millenia.

In addition to all that, I was just sent a petition to sign to online Walmart which is selling satan religion stuff and also coloring books. etc to children.

I often think this too, but then I remember Sodom and Gomorra. I wonder what life had been like leading up to that event? It’s quite possible the leftist sins have been accepted as moral in the same way many times over the past few thousand years. Even Israel itself when without their own land fell into that sewer. And what were times like before Noah’s Ark? I’m not sure our present day glorification of sinfulness is new. But combined with other signs it is certainly significant. The sad thing is a God has already shown us what He will do when a city/country/world chooses to elevate and celebrate such depravity. He will destroy it Himself. Once again we are ignoring his warnings.

I agree. Actually, I was going to clarify in the past 1700 years, from when paganism was destroyed and Christianity was legalized and then spread.

About the buying/selling mark, I was reading about Venmo (my adult children are urging this on me as paper checks are cumbersome 🙄) and one of the advantages was adding a person’s QR code to eliminate mistaken identity. I was not aware that people had QR codes. 😳😳

Now there's a rabbit hole than needs to be excavated! Noticing parallels is always informative, helpful and useful. But today's church is so successfully tempted to interpret Biblical prophecy by imposing today's headlines on the Biblical text. Not a very sound approach.

The Bible made into a tool instead an eternal guide. And that's 'tool' like in the EU's Tool Box they are always talking about

daverkb's avatar

The Reformers were very, very astute on the Bible and could not be easily fooled. People today, not so much and very easily fooled ... and by just about everything. And I suppose the world disappoints you so very often the same as it does me. And how could it be otherwise?

But … look at the countries involved and/or against Israel now. That wasn’t the case 50 years ago. And all the deceptions … this definitely is a very incredible time to be alive. All eyes on Israel!!!🇮🇱

“What recourse do citizens have when those powers are abused, especially given the legal immunity government agents enjoy?”

This is a real problem. SCOTUS defined presidential immunity, but the people need to go after the other actors in the endless gov play.

"Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis once wrote, “The remedy to be applied (to bad speech) is more speech, not enforced silence.”

My thoughts exactly. His ridiculous memo reeked of arrogance. It reminded me of an email I received from family trying to "do good" by encouraging me to take the shot. They were blind to their arrogance.

It reminded me of the reply from Washington State’s AG (soon to be cheated in as governor) Bob Ferguson, when I wrote him that perhaps he should reconsider his lawsuit against a local florist for declining to participate in a “marriage” of two men. I’ve never seen such a mess of words feebly strung with hypocrisy and contorted logic in my life.

It was Richland Flower Shop, Barronelle Stutzman.
