May 25, 2013 – The Last Pope, Continued…



The new Pope of the Catholic Church continues his promulgation of Liberation Theology with his latest simplistic statements of salvation equality.  And I say this as a Catholic.

If you haven’t heard the fact, Pope Francis was quoted in the media as saying that all one needs to be saved is to do good works.  Pope Francis said that even atheists can be “saved” if they only do good.  Hmmmm.   This must cause one to step back and think carefully.  You can read about it at the link at the bottom of this post.

If one were to think about this for some time then one might come to the next question – if that is true that one can be saved by doing good then what need have we of the Church?  Indeed, what need does man have for the entirety of theology and formal religion?  If one merely has to do good works then one will be saved.  Can a real bastard of a man who commits many “sins” against his family, friends and neighbors save himself by doing one good work?  Did the mass murderer John Wayne Gacy actually “save” himself from the evil murders he delighted in committing because he also performed many acts of good will for the community in which he also predated?  Or would a pimp who whores and beats women for the cash they produce with their bodies find salvation because he gives a homeless man a twenty dollar bill?   Is salvation really that easy to attain?  If it is that easy to attain then why am I working so hard?

It troubles me that the Pope, the Head of the Holy Roman Catholic Church on Earth, could be so simplistically relativistic in his view.  Is he really that simplistic or was his suggestion really nothing more than an attempt to curry favor from the media and those who are morally relativistic?  Is the Pope merely trying to ingratiate himself with those non-believers to create a “bridge” for communication?  I would like to think so but I am concerned that he is not.  Rather, Pope Francis is revealing his relativistic views of faith with which he was virtually born and raised with over his lifetime.  It is the relativism born of a lifetime immersed in Marxist socialization and relativism.

If this continues as I seem to see it proceeding, Pope Francis may indeed be the last Pope of the Catholic Church.  His fellow Cardinals may indeed soon come to regret electing him Pope after all.  Remember that Pope Francis asked that God forgive the Cardinals for electing him Pope.  This is not a comment to be taken lightly, either as a joke or a serious statement.   The entire Church Body may have good reason to be concerned also.  The Devil may be in the Pope’s details.

We ain’t seen nothing yet.

May 24, 2013 – Dracula is Dead (Again)…



John Boehner pronounces that the Senate Scamnesty Bill is “Dead on Arrival” in the House not withstanding that this may have been the plan from the very beginning to give the Communist Democrats a big wedge issue for the 2014 election cycle.  This is according to a Washington Times article noted below in the link.  But the hocus is in the pocus as Boehner and his cohorts begin debate over their own version of the Scamnesty Bill in the House.

The REAL jokus is on us, We the People of the United States.  Any bets that the Shamnesty Bill from the House is going to differ much from the Scamnesty Bill of the Senate.  Not likely.  Any bets that the Shamnesty Bill of the House will sail through the House and Senate like the Tarp Bill did?  Highly likely!!!!  The only thing that isn’t dead is the Scamensty being granted to tens of millions of illegal invaders into the United States of America.  The real TREASON is that the Congress is even considering it in the first place.

Now, this may very well be the end of it or at least the need to ever pass any more Scamnesty or Shamnesty Bills.  This Bill, once passed, will create the infrastructure to automatically integrate any and all future invaders into the United States from illegal invader to permanent voting citizen.  That is the real key to this particular bill.  The House and Senate are both getting tired of being beaten up about each and every attempt at Shamnesty for invaders.  So you can bet this bill will be the last bill.  That is why they are SO intent upon getting THIS one passed. 

And each day you will begin to see your influence as citizens upon your own “representative” government diminish.  Each day, slowly, the government will grow beyond your ability to influence.   Don’t look too closely now as it may already be there.  Say goodbye to the United States.  Say hello to the Banana Republic of North America!!!!

May 23, 2013 –Comediennes Not So Funny…



A link to an interview with Jerry Lewis appears at the bottom of this post.  In the interview he re-iterates some statements he said about women as comedians.  Most interestingly he says that he cannot see a woman diminishing her qualities to that “lowest common denominator.”

Unfortunately, there is no depth to this commentary.  So naturally there is no follow up with Lewis particularly on why he thinks that performing comedy it a stretch to the “lowest common denominator”.  I think that is a real nugget of gold in this interview which the dim wits who wrote the article completely missed.  Why does Jerry Lewis consider comedy to be so low that a woman shouldn’t do it?  I would like to know which Mr. Lewis thinks is lower – being a comedian or a prostitute?  Or does he consider it the same thing?  If so, why?   If Mr. Lewis thinks comedy has such a low reputation then I think that needs much more exploration.  What exactly is the dark side of comedy?

Unfortunately, we will probably never know.   So it goes with reporting in the twenty-first century.
