Title: High jump primer, Hopping the pot. Post by TechStuf on Mar 17th, 2006 at 5:02pm
Fellow frogs, those with feeling left in their legs, it's time to hop off or out of the pot.....
The following is, sadly, only one of TOO MANY very real, very disgusting examples of how far greed can go when we as a nation continue to err on the side of apathy. When we rhetorically ask ourselves in resignation, "what can I do?" Even as totally viable options available to us are easy and obvious! http://www.corpwatch.org/article.php?id=13390 You and I can raise our collective voice by simply having nothing to do with Exxon/Mobil. I for one will immediately make the simple, obvious, and easy choice not to buy their products. I hope and pray you will too..... How sad that those in power....and in collusion with oil companies and the other megacorps who run the world, are surely sharing the unholy profits......while making war on the 'middle class'....(read that as any left who feel any obligation whatsoever to justice). "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men *(and women) to do nothing."- Edmund Burke For those of faith, pray a mighty blessing down upon Exxon and the very concept of the 'corporation'....which recognition in worldly courts as a legal entity in and of itself has served largely as a devious, though otherwise NONEXISTENT shield to protect many a 'greedy' tyrant from a sorely lacking and over due meeting with JUSTICE...which for far too long has come to be more aptly defined: JUST US. When we live in a society which ACTIVELY condones sending shoplifters, disadvantaged and desperate petty crime 1st offenders to jail for twice as long and MORE....than greedy tyrants who callously and greedily approbate the ruination of hundreds, even thousands of lives.....we have fallen far from what once was blessed upon us... INDEED how true this is! For those agnostic or atheistic of you who receive this message......it's just good common sense not to continue patronizing such an irresponsible entity. (That is, unless their shortsighted, animalian brand of 'survival of the fittest' seems appealing somehow.) For those of you benefitting in some way from Exxon/Mobil.....or those possibly swayed by the gestures it makes on behalf of wildlife or other charitable acts....please look deeper than that. It has made a killing, both literally and figuratively over the years, especially as of late.....breaking all sorts of profit records (36 Billion, that's with a 'B', last year, more than any single company in history) as we are squeezed at the pump, forcing many among us to choose between a decent diet and driving to the daily grind for the week. It maintains a huge den of ravenous, shall I be generous? .....let's just call them 'attorneys'......jumping through every loophole there is, each continually probing for any opportunity to forge their own vacuous personal destinies as the originators of new and unique fissures in the Swiss cheese our justice system has become. They stand, each in his own mirror, vanguards on a Daliesque and dubious frontier......one upon which, if we each look closely enough, precious time can be seen melting away before our eyes. Given the resources, these toothy grinned and flailing land sharks will someday find some sort of time loophole too....so that they can retroactively suck you, I, and the very Earth dry before you are ever born.....Hey, if it were possible, don't think for a moment that they'd stop there! Heck, they're doing it to you right now, greasing your palm with miniscule 'cash back' bonuses and gas card goodies! Yay! It's a child's Shell game, really.... look what's in this hand! A sucker for baby! And babies we are, aren't we! Sucking at the hind teats of many a prize winning corporate sow.....to whom which our allegiances are assured, partly by the implied threat of a growing, though ever more appealing to some, antiquated concept..... Self reliance/personal responsibility. The well worn phraseology of: "Think globally, act locally" The cry of the neo patriot....is imbued with the backing of mega conglomerates everywhere.... I say, any truly caring and thinking world citizen would best be concerned with the task of thinking locally....and acting locally at this late juncture, for in the word of old Ben Franklin: "If we do not hang together, we will most assuredly, hang separately." And that's how mega corps win.....leaving joe blow, ie. You and Me on any given day, at any given moment....twisting in the wind. Because they love to network.....the ties that bind them are much stronger than we less ambitious layfolk, as is evidenced at nearly every corner of modern society. Greed, love of money, love of power, naked ambition..... They trump common sense, loyalty, derision of evil, thirst for justice....ad nauseum. It's enough to make a grown man cry. And it has, it does.... And IT SHOULD. I say, don't let the market hype and shiny trinkets continue to fool you any longer! They are simply trying to keep their gravy train barrelling along the tracks, trading shiny beads and booze to you, trying to keep you happy on the reservation....while, in effect, making you go blind and impotent. or worse. Think it's a joke? Yeah me too, a sad one. The truth, should you care to examine it, is far more nightmarish than most of you will ever care to glimpse upon. Much less thoughtfully investigate despite the stark lack of droning comfort such an enterprise represents. But, almost lamentably, I digress....we are only talking about Exxon/Mobil for this brief moment. Ok, Just because the invention of the 'corporation' provides many a loophole for greedy vermin to crawl through does not mean that it cannot be held accountable in God's court....it is past time to pray to God for all corporations in this increasingly Orwellian society....that they be judged by how they treat their employees and society. If you be so inclined, say this prayer with me: "Almighty Father, bless Exxon/Mobil abundantly and bind the machinations, objects and minions of the evil one regarding it....unbind that which they have bound in tattered rags and let the blood of Christ flow upon her, that your will and spirit may permeate Exxon/Mobil throughout!" "Father, you see past the smokescreen of incorporated hegemony, the hypocrisy of letting an un real entity be treated as a legal straw man, You are not swayed by the mumbo jumbo associated with Corporate Accountabilty, and are the Creator of a far simpler and saner form of justice called 'Individual Accountability'......Father, let your blessing come quickly upon that corporation, it's officers and all accountable staff even as we pray that you send your Son quickly.....Your's is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever, Amen!" And people, follow up with Action, simple and consistent action......Exxon has made obscene profits this year, last year and as far as that goes, what most of us would consider obscene, every year!....Obscene! It's greed has judged it worthy of receiving His hand upon it. Let it be so, and have nothing to do with Exxon/Mobil. Forward this message as your conscience dictates.....but regardless of how you feel about the sharing of this truth or the manner and personal convictions with which it is conveyed.....personally ACT. It's not hard to simply choose to ask for God's hand to be revealed in the matter and avoid patronizing such an egregiously irresponsible entity as this..... And this in itself, I trust, will speak volumes regardless of whether or not this truth spreads beyond the few people of whom I am privileged to call.... Friends. Sincerely, Mitch Robinson P.S. I can hear that nagging voice in all of us now....."too little, too late" ....yada...yada..yada.... And you'd be right......for the vast majority of us, it already is and was....along time ago. But as we've all seen or heard before.....sometimes winning the seemingly smallest of battles can have a way of changing a whole war. My hat's off to those who realize that loyalty to common decency and justice is worth dying for......and greater still, those who actively seek, find and share that loyalty with their brothers and sisters regardless of petty (by comparison) differences. God bless us all in the coming days....for they unfold as foretold in His Holy word. |

Wo0t! I must admit that I didn't read the whole thing, but I support boycotting exxonmobil completely.
If moral and religous reasons aren't enough, listen to this! Do you want to pay more for gas!? Always buy the cheapest gas and never from Exxon/Mobil. If no one buys from them, they'll have to lower their price, to stay competitive, smaller places will lower their prices also. This will continue until gas stations can't afford to bring the price down any lower. Sure it may not be as low as should be at that point, but a lot better than it is now! Spread the Word!!! |

o yeah, i heard something about that a short while ago.... wasnt there a group of people asking for a hundred thousand dollars to clean it up or something...?
well don't buy from them because they make gas prices go up,. |

Why do they even think about it?! if its really just in the hundreds of thousands, even a couple million, so what!? That kind of money is nothing to a huge corporation like that. I'd give them plenty of extra just for good publicity.
There has to be more to this..... it can't be as black and white as it seems. |

Title: Re: High jump primer, Hopping the pot. Post by TechStuf on Mar 17th, 2006 at 11:45pm
You are correct, CanDo....and in the convoluted system we have allowed to metastasize into the many tentacled specter towering over us today.....
'Doing the right thing' has become a dark, dingy, gray nightmare for gigantic, bloated conzerns such as Exxon, to achieve. Considering Exxon made 36 Billion last year, the largest single company profit in recorded history.....while many of us had to choose between a decent diet and driving to the week's daily grind..... It's seems clear where their 'loyalties' lie. I guess I can't speak for the many fishermen who lost their entire livelihoods.....or the myriad others injured by Exxon's continued irresponsibility.... But someone should. And I guess, technically, I am. Seems I could advocate that we band together with slings of David and Goliath fame and rally around the motto: "Exxon victims unite, sling a rock at a tanker today!" But that would just be spinning our wheels in the safe zone.....and maybe puncturing a Greenpeace raft or two in the process. The real danger these days, the front line as it were, is in slinging the stinging words of truth in the face of tyranny......a tyranny like no other before it or after. One which looks upon free speech, epitomized by the meaningful words of Voltaire who said: "I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." As issuing a form of psych warfare terroristic threat! "If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all."- Noam Chomsky http://www.quotegarden.com/censorship.html So, how does any self respecting, globe wringing Hydra get around such an obstacle? All too easily these days......By simply controlling the venues for verbal activism, ie. not within X number of miles of any political event.....monitoring communications, outlets of expression visa vi , this forum, the internet at large, among myriad other techniques, many too unbelieveable to reiterate here. Largely to better categorize for present reference, or future action, such individuals as your's truly, who still manage to grunt out an unauthorized thought or two. Effectively, they are seeking to ensure by all means deemed necessary, that such words do not give birth to any form of physical action contrary to what is written on the short and dusty "list of approved forms of physical, public expression of dissent" which, it is rumored, is buried in a hermetically sealed vault somewhere beneath Lenin's tomb, Hitler's Suicide bunker, or Ghengis Khan's recently excavated 'Tea tent'....I'm not sure which. Story is....that the last man to look upon "The list" was found to have copied it in it's entirety just before strangely disappearing......leaving behind his word for word transcription of the list. It read simply, and I quote: "intermittent frowning". LOL....(sigh) Smiles, TS |

Title: Re: High jump primer, Hopping the pot. Post by TechStuf on Mar 18th, 2006 at 6:40am
Greetings Tint,
I agree, that is one right question. Perhaps even 'more right' would be the question: What can't I do in accordance with my Creator's will, guidance and support? A single man and God constitute a majority. That same man and His adversary would otherwise constitute one short, intense tantrum. And given that the wicked one and his army are cast down to the vicinity of Earth, knowing they have but little time....seeking whomever they may devour....our sick, stubborn and weakened planet will soon, largely be throwing the tantrum of all tantrums. And our Father's patience is being withdrawn. TS |

I buy gas from BP when I have to refuel because they're devoted to researching alternative energy sources, and they funded a fossil digging expedition I was a member of a few years ago. So, they support alternative energy and dinosaurs!

Title: Re: High jump primer, Hopping the pot. Post by english on Mar 18th, 2006 at 12:13pm
A good idea is to petition your government to force oil companies to support the use of renewable energy resources. These companies have a limited lifetime - there must come a point when they have to invest in solar and wind powers - why not sooner rather than later?
Of course, this will have no effect. Neither will a boycott of products that people want to buy. America is enormous, and it is full of frankly stupid people, as any country is; they will continue to load up on fuel, get paranoid about terrorist attacks, and vote in retards, whilst still talking of Christianity. You can't do anything about it - they have been brought up valuing their rights; to bear arms, to shop till they drop, to have the lowest fuel costs in the world. It doesn't make them at all content, but they don't care, the fat pillocks. Boycott Exxon if you like, if only not to feel guilty, not to change what they do. Excellent ideas, though, TS. If only all Christians in America thought this way. |

MH, I've been purchasing my gas exclusively from BP for years now. Their premium is the best gas going, and since I must, at present, continue purchasing gasoline....I too, feel that they are a saner choice.

English, you are to be congratulated for even caring to try and understand the plight of those who still try hard to live their faith, It is, most assuredly, not an easy road. most these days certainly consider it to be the hope of the hopeless.
Have any of you seen the latest Axe men's cologne commercial? It is typical of the....'in your face' style of modern naked luciferian mind twists.....it's everywhere now, especially in what passes for t.v. entertainment. And most naive minions lap it up, all too willing to play the mystified traitor to their own souls. Many of these misguided ones take pleasure in the torment of others. Largely because of my outspokenness, or my stubborn naivete, I'll let the reader be the judge....I have been harrassed in many varied and sick ways, which continues unabated. Last week, our family cat was killed and I received a message in which I was compared to a dog who just needed the right kind of motivation to play along. These ones love to speak metaphorically, in part, so that if ever recorded, they appear to be talking about more mundane or even silly things, even though their juvenile threats are clear. To them it is an act of love to intimidate, threaten, and worse, to achieve their aims. That is, in part, why their 'turnover' rate is so high and they comb the streets constantly looking for the next crop of lost souls to be initiated into the crafts of deceit, subterfuge and trickery.....all in the hollow name of a despotic kind of patriotism....to a god which has blinded them in the furious, intense glare of his short wicked, black light. As was foretold........most are largely blind to the present landslide into a greater fulfillment of draconian 'bliss' than that which before had set upon Germany under hitler. Make no mistake, the threat to anyone brave enough to stand for the truth in the 'false light' of the wicked one is quite educational, and depending upon one's particular constitution, either evaporates or tempers one's personal faith. The Sheep and Goats our master spoke of in the Book of the Revelation are being separated at this time......and we are told that the end of this wickedness cannot come without a great falling away first. This is happening even now. Once again, I implore any who should read this, to steer clear of secret societies and any organizations whose compromised state is discerned. Virtually the whole world is in their frenzied grasp. Continue praying you are given the power of discernment and insight into our Father's ways in the name of Yahshua, Jesus Christ.....and you will receive it. But be warned that such narrow and treacherous passage, what short measure remains thereof....once embarked upon, will hasten either your reconciliation with your Father, or your demise along with those who make themselves His desperate enemies. There will be NO middle ground left for you......nor anyone for that matter, before it is done. The bible records that His very elect would be fooled if it were possible. And such is the target of the wicked one. He aims his weapon squarely at those who would stand true. The rest he has in his back pocket and tries hardest to snare those who would succeed in following Christ's example, highlighting the irrationality of his clinging to stubborn reversal. There was war in heaven, 1/3rd chose the side of the wicked one and are cast down......Earth is the proving ground, the vacinity of which has become their temporary and relatively spatial prison...the testing platform to see who will hold fast for what by His measure is truly a short duration, refusing to succumb to the tempting ways of the immature ones......showing themselves worthy to take their place in the true reality.....replacing the fallen ones! You see, any high ranking earthly dignitary will not surround his or herself with those untested. It is common practice before choosing a body guard to test them to see if they will give their lives for their employer....sometimes in a variety of ways.....like taking a bullet to the vest or jumping in front of blank fire. Earth, although the solid matter it contains is used in myriad distracting and harmful ways....is not as forboding a place to those who know what awaits.......and our Father will not have a repeat performance of what has already occurred. He will accept only those thoroughly tested in the fires of weakness and failure. It is only by intimate experience with our own failures that many of us truly ever appreciate success. Perfection! It is a choice we make every day, and often every moment. Do I live this day for my Master, myself, or the wicked one. Paul said it well, I die daily. It is through your weakness that you be made strong, use it as sparingly as you can possibly muster. God will surround himself only with those whose loyalty has been tested to completion. And Earth is THE testing ground of testing grounds. What is coming will truly make the best 'sci-fi' that compromised men can offer, look rather like a child's fairy tale. It is no coincidence that so many of today's movies parallel what is borne out in His holy word. One example, the t.v. show, stargate.....constantly plays the theme that we determine our own fate by our wits and our command of technology.....any culture encountered on the program invariably worships a false God who is in reality simply more technologically advanced. So, only our wits and what WE create can save us.....the 'God' concept will get you killed.....this kind of naked advertisement for the war machine, this promotion of self worship is playing out all around us yet most will simply refuse to look up and see the truth. I have seen and photographed various examples of the technology under their command....impressive it is, certainly, to the carnal mind. Yet our Father warns that in these late days......3 'unclean expressions' would mislead the kings of the earth and gather them together for war against the almighty. The bible records that after the days of Noah, the fallen angels, (demons) were prohibited from taking human form......It does not mention what other, 'unclean' forms could be taken. I believe there is a fair amount of evidence to support the possibility that the 3 'unclean expressions' who mislead the armies of earth.....are indeed 'alien' looking in appearance, recounting their desparate tale of how the real treachery is from those who believe in a higher being....perhaps recounting how, on their home world....their existence was nearly wiped out by such well meaning though, inevitably destructive beliefs. And to be sure, they certainly have much to work with given man's history and what he has done in the name of religion. But they throw out the baby with the bathwater, so to speak. For although they can find NO FAULT whatsoever with the teachings of Christ, they are judging all who claim connection with Him regardless of how genuine, they prove to be. To them it is analogous to an infection that must be eradicated. As much as it pains some of them to do it. Pray that as many as is possible, awaken before their destruction is assured! If the above seems like a sci-fi movie theme it's only because it has been, time and again. These clever ones love to play both ends against the middle, don't be caught there. Stay at the deeper end which they have no hold on......Choose your master and sit at His feet, focussed upon Him. He admonishes us to pray without ceasing at any hour of the day, as we are able, to avoid being caught unaware. For it is the stray sheep wandering the expansive, inviting perimeter that are pulled into the night to be devoured. Keep the oil in your lamp and keep it lit. The Bible records that after the days of Noah, man's life span was limited to 120yrs. http://www.angelfire.com/ga/wkb/health.html Various examples exist in medical literature citing this same maximum. Our Father did this because before, when the Nefilim (fallen angels) came down and mixed with men who routinely lived to be hundreds of years old.....they had a lot of time to become adept at wickedness! So He implemented 'term limits' on the reign of fools! The examples of the hard fought assault on our Father's truth are everywhere, especially in the highly addictive and detrimental forms of t.v. entertainment. Those even vaguely familiar with that of which I speak, can only guess at the trial that awaits them should they kneel in secret, and pray in the name of Yahshua, Jesus Christ, that our Father place them upon His path. For once He begins a work in a man, He will not leave it unfinished and will work with and for you until you either reach that narrow gate into His kingdom, or capitulate to corruption. What is coming upon this world is not for the faint of heart, which is why we are warned that even young men's hearts will fail them in the days just ahead......many will be suffered unto sleep until it is finished. But regardless of what we endure, blame not He who has arranged this test, but the wicked one who is allowed simply to be himself by which you are put through trial. Judge not one man above another for all are imperfect and fall short of the glory of God. Work what is good toward all. And may the Holy Spirit be with you. This will prove to be a year of storms, to varying degree and definition. His warning with Ivan to New Orleans, nearly a year to the day before Katrina, went unheeded....I hear they are proud that the Mardi Gras is back in action. Can this lead to a blessing for them? We will see. If they be still stubborn, no amount of beads, rosary or otherwise will postpone His anger. This is the 'sign of Jonah' given in scripture.....'In the last days many will be seeking a sign and none will be given them but the sign of Jonah'. Jonah, was asked to give a warning to Nineveh to change her ways.....to quit supporting wickedness within her borders. He warned her, the city repented and was spared, He could not fathom it and was more worried about being thought a 'false prophet' than he should have been glad that she repented, and was spared. He was taught a valuable lesson. 1 year later the city was destroyed as it quickly returned to it's old ways. New Orleans was warned of God's anger in advance and spared of Ivan (hurricane) on account of a relatively miniscule number of His children slow to leave, who prayed for her. On account of these ones she was spared. These were encouraged to leave and most did before the year that was given her was up. And the stubborn ones learned nothing.....and were emboldened in defiance to what their hearts revealed to them. Refusing to recognize the untenable position they hold. God has many things in store for the cities of the world....each with it's own 'flavor', collective culture, each with it's individual amount of accepted proclivity toward wickedness. He will judge each, according to it's own measure and will implement such according to righteousness. Revelation 6:12-17 Rev 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; Rev 6:13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. Rev 6:14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. Rev 6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; Rev 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: Rev 6:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? To the men in Cheyenne mountain, Deep under S.A.C. air command from which many chemtrail flights are launched daily and elsewhere ensconced in strongholds from which your superiors are mislead to think they are fighting the good fight......be mindful that you may be fighting against the Judgements of the Almighty.....for what you may view to be as a help to your fellow man, is merely seeking to postpone His wrath, regarding which, it is foretold: Rev 16:8-11 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. Rev 16:9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. Rev 16:10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, Rev 16:11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. http://spaceflightnow.com/news/n0009/21sunearth/ They are spending trillions to spray the skies daily, over much of the globe to induce precipitation, deliver biologically active agents and, largely, to block out some of the increased solar radiation. To what end? We had an appreciable rain here the other day......each drop contained some kind of mud which clogged the windshield of every car on the road in our area. The spraying was intense that day. Now they seek to induce a large snow storm in our area over the coming few days. Again, to what end? They can see the document of warning and fulfillment against such rebellious efforts but they choose to fight against Him rather than repent of their worship of military gods. I was in a local sporting goods store in Omaha a few days ago, when a few men dressed in flight gear attatched to SAC came in to purchase hockey sticks, they made a display of swinging them about seemingly for my benefit. This was only a couple days after our family cat was killed.....they seemed to make implication that worse 'can happen'. I don't know if they are angry with me for speaking the truth as I have seen it....or that I prayed to our Father to bless their 'pet project' in connection with the taking of our own pet in order to convey a threatening message. I hope to stand upon the promise made at Revelation 11:3-13 I know.......I write much......to be read by few. But I'm not the first. And God willing, I won't be the last, either. God bless, TS If you've made it this far, my struggles, perceived or otherwise, will certainly seem strange and unbelieveable to you.....Then I pray you taste of them, strongly. That you may feel the warmth and solidity of his providential hand upon your shoulder, an invitation to step into fast moving waters in expectation that He will stop them for you to pass through. For at that time, you will be helped to carry a small burden of great significance. His hand upon all who see this, in Jesus Christ, Amen. |

Such statement was meant to paraphrase several scriptures containing advisement to pray at all times.
http://www.freemethodistchurch.org/Sections/Prayer/Stories/11-14-03_PrayWoutCeasing.htm Among various other scriptures, Colossians 4:2-5 speaks of buying out time to pray and staying awake. We are admonished to pray as often as we are able, not to the exclusion of all other things, but to be mindful during as many conscious moments as we can, and stay in communication with Him to avoid the plethoric distractions the world has to offer us at any given moment. It's an increasingly uphill battle. But one from which the view shares no comparison! God bless, Mitch |

I sometimes have a hard time understanding what you say ts but from what i have gleamed form reading what you wrote people are harrassing you? would it be easer to move to a diffrent city or state then stay where you are and suffer from mud rain and harrassment from some sort of odd gov. plot?
We may be out of the way but there is no odd phenomenon where i live and its rare to see any planes around here. |

Thanks DTB. Your comments certainly seem well meaning.......
Upon the impromptu reflection of this moment, I suppose I could find a crevice in which to hide (other than the one some might suggest I employ to hide my head).....but that is anathema to my current sensibilities. For your consideration: http://www.rense.com/politics6/chemdatapage.html http://www.abovetopsecret.com/pages/af2025.html http://www.rense.com/general54/babalc.htm The 'beast' of the first century of our common era is biblically recognized as Rome. Her modern counterpart is very much like her, this one a military empire like no other before, nor ever to come after. And to large degree, it still honors the same false gods, most of military nature. And according to His word, the beast will be able to call down fire from heaven (lightning).....this is currently being accomplished around the world by several methods under it's command. As their own words reveal, it is their goal to 'own the weather' by the year 2025. http://www.mt.net/~watcher/ This beast is already waging war against those who have already glimpsed their reward for remaining outspoken in the word of God. Such war is being waged now, in the open and clandestinely.....while the world sleeps. There is a catchy saying among the elite of this nation's special forces.... "Run and you'll only die tired". And only a fool or a prophet would stand in their midst and inform them that they work against the will of God. As for me, my legs are weary, yet I walk forward. My head still upon my shoulders.....until he whom I have already forgiven might remove it. Blessings in Christ upon this fine forum. Mitch |

I'm not surprised to have experienced an internet outtage beginning late Saturday night, actually early Sunday morning and ending today.....I called my provider on Sunday to be informed that one of their lines was cut......not told where or how....but I find it interesting that a line would be cut in the wee hours of the morning.
Another interesting event.......We are currently experiencing the largest snowstorm in quite some time. Peace, TS |

Wow TS, you do get on a roll don't you? I am with you about the Exxon/Mobil boycott as they are probably the highest priced gas in the country. As for the rest, there are alot of good people out there doing good work and making a difference alittle at a time. Not all of them are Christians and I don't think it is necessary to believe in a Jewish carpenter to be a good person or to gain a place in the hereafter of your choice. If you don't like what the government is doing, Vote! Call your Congressman or Senator and tell them what you think is wrong. We put these people in power with our votes and we can change what we dislike with our votes! Not all Americans are fat idiots who according to English "elect Retards" after all we did get rid of the "retards" in 1776 and we can do it again............sorry for the rant ::)

I will bite on this; I find some of the posts on this thread offensive and would prefer it if the poster stopped it.
If I want to be preached at I will go to Church. If I want to be grabbed by my metaphorical lapels and told about Government plots to poison me with Fluoride / read my mind with lasers / follow me with miniature spy-robots I will go hang around the local Homeless shelter. I come here to read about and discuss Slinging, history, primitive weapons etc. Please stop it. Pat wrote on Mar 18th, 2006 at 3:28pm:

I too found much of it offensive, that's exactly why I cared to share it with my fellow man in what I feel is an appropriate venue.
I suppose that if all I posted were unlabled links to the sources of information which I felt were of importance to those here in the forum.....it would grab and shake you less greatly? I can offer no apology for sharing that which is of great concern to myself and at least a few others which gather here. Pat, If I received sufficient warning that your town were to be inundated with a rain of frogs.....I'd share that too. But not without first offering you a 'metaphorical' umbrella. Oh, and since you brought it up..... http://www.americanfreepress.net/Alternative_Health/17_02%20HS%20Fluoride%20Is%20Poison,%20Sa.htm http://www.johnleemd.net/breaking_news/fluoridation_01.html As for laser mind probes......I'll leave your lapels alone on that one. Although, as successful as the powers that be have become at using television, movies, and other entertainment media to re-educate the willing....who needs laser mind probes? For the majority of the industrial world, there's not much left to probe anyway. And for that, I am truly sorry. God bless, TS P.S. I too come to this forum for 'escape' from time to time. This doesn't lessen my obligation to warn my fellow man that what is coming soon upon this world will provide no escape, only choices....... Choices of only three varieties: informed, misinformed and uninformed. Blessings in Yahshua, upon you and your household. |

Thank you for your apology, with took three words, and was surrounded by another page of mindless gibberring.
If you find out my town was about to be inundated with a rain of frogs, please do NOT warn me - for three reasons. 1) My town is not GOING to be inundated with a rain of frogs 2) I don't mind Frogs anyhow 3) I would prefer a rain, an inundation, a Biblical FLOOD of Human Excrement, of fire, of pus or of demonic beings with leetle sharp Pitchforks, to your endless, tedious waffle. How simply can I put this that you will understand? Please shut the F.u.c.k. up about your insane obsessions. I was rather under the impression from your 'final post' last year that you had retreated to a place of safety as the end-times were upon us. I would be grateful if you would either return there, or at least learn to moderate your behaviour. Your neigbours harass you? Frankly if I was your neigbour so would I. Pat |

Leeds,
You do not have to read all posts. Tech, Please remember that not everybody feels the same way you do. I feel this thread is getting out of hand, so I lock it now. Willeke |
