Germboys, Executive orders and Vaccines

November 30, 2007

I am reposting this article I wrote a few weeks ago because I think it may be one of the most important pieces of news, because of what it means.  Last night Steve Quale www.stevequale.com was interviewed on Coast to Coast, a worldwide radio program that has more listeners than any other radio talk show.  He talked about weather wars and giants.  He said vaccines steralize people and cause autism.  His son became autistic after taking a vaccine.  The sterilization fits well with the Bilderberg agenda which is no more children and enforced birth control.  The military is currently buying tens of thousands of tents and trailers which could potentially be used to vaccinate people.  But this is the situation now: Will I have to choose between going to jail or getting my future children vaccinated?  Will it mean that they will not be able to go to public school because only private schools allow unvaccinated children.  Steve Quale said a 4 star military general told him there was a plan to kill 200 million Americans.  People who have worked in the underground bases have become whistle blowers and speak of huge gulags being built where torture chambers contain people and are already opperational in the United States and Britian.  I hear it all on Coast to Coast.  There are pictures of the 600 above ground prison camps fully opperational while more are being built.  Most of the top microbiologists in the world, from government microbiologists to university microbiologists, have all been systematically murdered in the last few years.  Why?  Steve Quale speculates that it may have something to do with the virus the illumanati is getting ready to unleash.  The point is America is no longer safe.  He says that weather wars are going on and there is currently an attempt to explode a volcanoe that will cause a title wave in the pacific ocean that will burry the east coast.  We need to pray, go to church and start binding together into tribes because that is the only thing that will save us when the time comes, hopefully later rather than sooner.

—-A beautiful baby!  

John and Samantha were so excited when they brought their baby home from the hospital.  Samantha was Canadian and so, even though John had a job in the United States, they traveled to Canada to have the baby.  They were poor and couldn’t afford the high costs of hospital fees.  Their new daughter was named Sarah, after the most beautiful women in the bible.  When home, Sarah drank unpasteurized milk from her mother, made all the more nutritious by the quality food from their garden Sarah’s mother ate.  There was always a smile on Sarah’s face which caused John and Samantha to wonder if their baby might not be the happiest one of all their acquaintance. Whenever she did cry, they changed her or nursed her until she was happy again. When Sarah was six months old, they took her to church to be baptized.  Everything seemed complete.  Five years later John and Samantha were told Sarah couldn’t enter public school.  Why…because she hadn’t been vaccinated. 

Sound like fiction?  This is exactly what is facing 2,300 parents in Maryland where, according to the Washington Post, they may now face jail time and costly fines for refusing to have their children vaccinated.  The children are not allowed to start school until the inoculations take place.  The jail time for the parents is for “truancy”, although this has been identified as vaccination through the backdoor.  Some colleges and universities are now making childhood vaccines a requirement for entry while the sheer number of vaccines now being recommended is steadily growing.  Parents aren’t taking it quietly.

 

“Doctors are charging parents extra for bringing up the subject,” says Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, who heads up the Osteo Med II clinic in Ohio, a center providing alternative and traditional medicine.  Speaking on the popular radio program Coast to Coast am this week, she said  “Doctors have adopted a paternalistic attitude towards their patients,” she said.  “They complain that parents think they know best and have started fining them—or walking out—for bringing up vaccines.”  [this is a paraphrase of her words based on memory]

 

Time Magazine and Newsweek have said parents think they know better than their doctors. Parents who choose a diet for their children, even if not an ideal diet, are more informed about health than those families which do not eat consciously at all. Conversely, parents who decide which vaccines they want their children to have, and which ones they don’t, are going to be more informed than parents who don’t ask any questions at all. Moreover, our whole legal system relies on the ability of lay people to evaluate claims of competing experts.  There is simply no basis to assert that parents—or journalists—-are incapable of educating themselves on this matter and making an informed decision.

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny has been working for years to educate parents about the dangers and health risks associated with vaccines.  She says that vaccines often do not work, contain dangerous chemicals (formaldehyde) and metals (mercury and aluminum), and work to suppress the immune system.  She writes:

If a “dirty bomb” exposed a large segment of US citizens simultaneously to Hepatitis B, Hepatitis A, tetanus, pertussis, diphtheria, Haemophilus influenza B, three strains of polio viruses, 3 strains of influenza viruses, measles, mumps, and rubella viruses, the chickenpox virus, and 7 strains of Streptococcus bacteria, we would declare a national emergency. We would call it an “extreme act of BIOTERRORISM”. The public outcry would be immense and our government would act accordingly. And yet, those are the very organisms that we inject through vaccines into our babies and our small children, with immature, underdeveloped immune systems. Many are given all at the same time. But instead of bioterrorism, we call it “protection.” Reflect a moment on that irony.

   —-Do vaccines contain mercury?   

Dr. Joseph Mercola, who runs a natural health website and is the author of Take Control of Your Health, has repeatedly stated that flu vaccines contain mercury and urged people not to receive flu shots, which many still do annually.  Other health experts have repeated similar concerns about the way mercury is used in medical science, including its widespread use in dentistry.  Many of the ingredients in vaccines are proprietary and new legislation has legalized pharmaceutical company’s determination to never disclose the ingredients.  New laws make them immune from lawsuits.  For this reason, it is hard to say exactly what is in many of the vaccines.  But are they helping?  Are grade-school children now free from contracting Hepatitis B (a disease only associated with sexual intercourse and intravenous drug use)? 

 

According to an article in the Oregonian this year, one in every 150 kids is now born with some form of Autism.  Some argue that these numbers, astonishing if they are to be believed, are because of the expanding definition of autism and the autism spectrum disorders.  If this is so, it is only because we now seek words to explain a disease that was unheard of 100 years ago.  We now have to seriously ask if vaccines are maybe creating an emergency unprecedented in our nations history.  Is a health emergency facing us because of the medical establishment’s obsession with getting everyone inoculated? Many books and articles have been written on the mercury/autism connection and the vaccines that perhaps facilitate autism although categorical evidence is lacking.  But there are other diseases associated with getting vaccinated.

 

Gulf war syndrome is a generic word describing a whole host of symptoms plaguing our armed forces from chronic fatigue to multiple chemical sensitivity.  It is interesting that military men and women receive many vaccines, lining up in a row to receive one after the other, including inoculations against anthrax.  There have been many cases of sudden and serious illness following these shots.  The amount soldiers’ children born with autism and birth defects is shocking.  Gulf War Syndrome is not, however, a recognized medical ailment as that would make these soldiers eligible for free care in VA hospitals.

 

 

—–Germboys and Bolsheviks

 

 

It is ironic that parents are not now allowed to choose what is best for their children after educating themselves, and depicted as fools in the corporate media when they do, but politicians are. New laws passed by congress and executive orders passed by the White House, allow for mandatory vaccines in the event of an unspecified emergency or bird-flu.  The legislation states clearly that an emergency is one that is defined by the executive branch and those who refuse these potential vaccines, as these parents do now in Maryland, can be quarantined.  Similar proposals by members of Bush Administration, such as one put forward by the now indicted Lewis I “Skooter” Libby, allow for low flying aircraft to administer vaccines to whole cities in the new American century.  This aid to the Vice President was so obsessed with getting everyone immunized that he was known to Bush’s cabinet as Germboy.  He even wrote a novel about a smallpox epidemic which required governments to take action and implement a mass vaccination program.  Scooter Libby advocated—along with others in the present government, using race based bioweapons as a tool of warfare, in a secret document that was leaked to the New York Times, after which Scooter Libby did not deny being one of the signatories.   Libby was present, along with New York Times reporter Judith Miller—who went to jail in the case which finally indicted Libby, when the Vice President oversaw a war game dealing with a bioterror attack.  The possibility of a pandemic is real and caution is needed.  But only after we face the hazard arising from the many bioweapons labs and disease experiments that go on in this country will we be in a position to deal effectively—or even talk—about any pandemic mother nature may send.  We have just finished a couple years hype about bird-flu.  It faded just as quickly as the SARS scare.  The weekend before a possible bird-flu first hit the news, and Eastern Europeans started slaughtering their birds in response, there was a front page article in the New York Times, which might as well have been on the last page.  It said that United States government scientists had travelled to Alaska to dig up the frozen remains of some men who had died in the great flu epidemic of 1917 and were preparing to recreate the virus in a laboratory.  It is a truth that our government has, in the past, experimented on its people.  That is admitted now in declassified documents. There is no basis to assume our government isn’t capable of unleashing a virus to consolidate its power.  And when you look at this present government, there is every reason to believe they could—and would—be capable of creating a problem to bring in the predetermined solution.

 

 

 —A New Paradigm in Health 

 

 

Weston Price, when he traveled around the world looking at the diets of various healthy cultures known for their longevity, found that the unchlorinated, unfluoridated water the children drank had trace amounts of polio and other childhood diseases which acted as a natural inoculation.  Alternative health experts have observed that our immune systems are too pure and need the stimulation from bacteria and germs found in unpasteurized dairy products and water from many third world countries.  A recent study printed in National Geographic confirmed this.  It found that children who had grown up with barnyard animals in the house had fewer cases of adult illness and the flu.  Moreover, the basis of good health, according to naturopathic physician and yoga instructor Laura Washington, who practices in Portland, OR—where I live, is the autonomic nervous system.  The established medical community doesn’t even recognize the existence of the autonomic nervous system, but it is the basis for feeling good.  She has explained to me that having an autonomic nervous system on track allows everything else to freely function.  It could be as simple as giving up a food, or naturally correcting some deficiency in the endocrine system.  Oftentimes people assume that they just don’t feel good because of other factors, such as depression or temperament, and don’t look further.  The presupposition of the prevailing medical doctrine is that illnesses and mental afflictions have no real cause and cannot be treated.  This ignorance even prevails among many alternative health professionals.  The Paradigm of health that Weston Price discovered and wrote about is the answer to all the illnesses facing us today, and it is enjoyable.  He says that animal fat is good and that meet is good, along with everything that is natural.  We can have death by diet, or health by diet, according to Weston Price.  Real food, however, is becoming scarce.

 

 

It will be uphill work for anyone who wants to implement Weston Price’s findings in their lives. The case in Maryland may be a test for the resolve of these parents who now face jail time for refusing to have their children vaccinated.  New hurdles await even after a possible victory in this Maryland case, which is by no means yet certain now that colleges and universities are requiring students to show vaccinations before entry and the immigration requirements in this regard are also becoming more strict. 

 

 

Recently a similar case arose in Texas when Governor Rick Perry signed an executive order demanding all 11 and 12 years old girls to get vaccinated for cervical cancer, a sexually transmitted disease.  He was forced to rescind the directive after a popular outcry.  That laws are now being passed mandating vaccination of children against sexually transmitted diseases (cervical cancer and hepatitis B); that healthy college kids should be required to go back and receive childhood vaccines, shows an inoculation ideology separated from any real health concerns.

 

 

This worries me.  Will my future children not be able to attend public school unless they are first vaccinated?  I don’t want any vaccines for my future children.  Will I go to jail for feeding raw goats’ milk to my children?   Already the Environmental Protection Agency shows up on organic farms with guns to close down the raw milk operations.  What about the rights of the consumer?  Will I have to raise my children in another country because the land of my birth has grown unsafe?  Do we even want to live in a country so Leninist?  Is the idyllic story of John and Samantha bringing their baby home and allowing God and nature to do the rest only a pipe dream?  American people are too quiescent.  Laws such as Congress’ Biodefence and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act of 2005 and the many Executive orders dealing with the subject, to which I have alluded, only occur if we let them.  These laws should not be surprising in a country where the President says to members of congress that he thinks “the constitution is just a god-damn piece of paper.”  The reaction of the American people, or non-reaction, however, is quite shocking. We have the power.  For example, if the American people had have started demanding raw milk when health food stores first become in-vogue, there might now be a thriving raw milk industry.  The same is true for vaccines. It is time to stand up and demand our rights. 

A Modest Proposal

November 29, 2007

In a few weeks two public figures will be descending on our friendly city for public events. One is an enlightened and elegant Canadian who, though sincere, has unwittingly become, in some respects, a left-gatekeeper. The other is a viper…a Bilderberger and very, very bad. While different in the challenges and opportunities they present, both offer a unique chance to gain visibility for the 9/11 truth movement and it is toward this end that the following proposal is directed. Noemi Klein is at the very forefront of left-wing thought today and someone who could potentially be on our side and with whom therefore every effort should be made to express solidarity. Although she has characterized our work as “conspiracy theorist”, it is probable she has never encountered the evidence for the inside job hypothesis. We have an opportunity to confront her with evidence about false-flag terrorism and maybe knock down some of the gates people like her have erected around this issue. After her speech there will be a brief question and answer period. This is an opportunity to educate and provoke curiosity in her audience as well, which will probably consist of many in the Portland peace community. I propose a few of us sit near the front. We should be prepared to ask the first questions and follow up so if she cuts off one of us, another can start. This technique has worked well in the past and lets her and everyone else present know that 9/11 truth isn’t going away by ignoring it. After her speech, we should have pamphlets and cards about 9/11 ready to hand her, possibly even books. Neomi Klein has, unintentionally, found herself in the position of someone on the left who keeps people from going too far. She has the entire worldwide alternative press listening to her right now and people look up to her and pay attention to what she says. Having her throw her weight behind this issue could really break it wide open. Her latest book The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism already shows an understanding of how elites use terrorism to further their own agenda. In fact, she writes that Chicago school capitalists pray for terror as Christian/Zionists/Endtimers pray for the rapture (paraphrase). She is close to the truth about 9/11, let us gently bring her the rest of the way.

Guerrilla news tactics are required for our next guest and, if recent events are anything to go by, it may be dangerous and we should be prepared to deal with violence from security. Bilderberg luminary Norman Podhorowitz is coming to Portland to speak and do a book signing. He is an adviser for the campaign of the Butcher of 9/11, Rudolph Giuliani, and has consistently called for the U.S. to attack Iran. A recent speech by Bill Clinton in Minessotta that was disrupted should serve as a model. It was when the former President began to speak of the 7/7 London bombings as the work of disenchanted British Muslims that young men shouted, “That’s a fraud” and “Inside Job.” By all appearances, Bill Clinton was caught very off guard. In front of two thousand people, the young men then shouted “Why don’t you talk about 9/11?” and “What about Bilderberg?” When one of these young men was thrown out by security, another waited a little and then shouted “Are you a member of the Bohemian club?” thus giving the appearance of being unrelated and of there being popular support for these conspiratorial views. The former president replied that he had never been to the Bohemian club because that’s where rich Republicans ran around naked urinating on redwood trees. The whole thing was captured on television and made national news. These events should inspire us and serve as a model. Let me say, among ourselves, I’m all in favor of astroterfing the grassroots.

The illuminists that control our government and pray for crisis in order to employ their Hagelian dialectic needto disrupted by the truth. Noam Chomsky said, “The millions of Americans who believe George Bush planned the Sep 11th attacks don’t seem very bothered by it.” Here is a chance to demonstrate the truth of our convictions and show that we are very bothered by the attack by ourselves on ourselves. The Phoenix that arises from the next false-flag attack would be a further entrenchment of the North American Union and a big step on the march for world government. The very sovereignty of our country is at stake. Roughly confronting Bilderbergers and gently challenging gatekeepers should be the task of all Portlanders. To that end let us organize our efforts. Anyone who is not prepared to engage in this minimal and relatively riskless activity is an appeaser and should have the name Neville Chamberlain tattooed on their arm.

The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism

November 27, 2007

There is a new book out by Neomi Klein called The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism.  It is rare indeed for a book like this to be written in such an elegant and sensitive way.  But then there has never been a book quite like this. Her critique of capitalism and free-markets is unique, yet one senses her reserve and this makes The Shock Doctrine all the more credible.  She unpacks the underlying philosophies and sick motivations of capitalism in a way that only a Neomi Klein could. (thankyou computer for not working and italicizing everything) This is one of a handful of the most important books in the social sciences written in the last 100 years. 

It was a misinterpretation of communist theory—and a particular authoritarian strain—that led to the perversions of Stalin, Mao and Cestaclou, she writes.  In the same way, it is the perversion of a particularly virulent form of capitalism, she writes, which has produced the Bush nightmare.  Is the ideology blameless? Is the ideology to blame for Bush and Reagan’s torture gulags in the United States, Latin America and elsewhere? That is the logic we apply to communism, and rightly, she says.  Any change is a change in topic. These are radical questions, like the one’s asked by Colorado Professor Ward Churchhill in his book The Justice of Roosting Chickens that produced a hysterical response from television pundits.  Ward Churchhill asked if the people who died in the Twin Towers were “innocent victims” when they, in fact, participated in a national security state which was waging genocide on Latin America and elsewhere (in another book by Churchhill called A Little Matter of Genocide,  he compared the U.S. run death camps in Central America and Asia to the toll wrought on the Jews by the Nazis, which, he said, wasn’t unique).  Churchhill said that the pencil pushers of the military industrial complex within the twin towers, who worked in the offices of the FBI, CIA and NSA, should be seen as equivelent to the Nazis who were hung at Nuremberg and not “innocent victims”.  Neomi Klein asks similar radical questions never asked before.  She quotes an Argentine novelist who says, “Any change is a change in topic.”  Is the capitalist ideology blameless when it produces and encourages widespread use of economic shock therapy as well as less metaphorical shock therapy?  The whole book is an answer to these questions posed in her introduction.  She concludes that capitalism is very dangerous and needs to be recognized as a dangerous ideology in the same way that communism is forever tarnished by the abuse of particular authoritarian strains of it. 

It is not Utopian.  For example, while suggesting that substantial portions of countries’ economies be turned over to the state, along with massively increased social spending, she rejects the binary argument of capitalism against communism as too simple.  She doesn’t reject all capitalism, but only particular strains of it—the Milton Freedman variety.  She suggests that small business can actually prosper better in a culture with increase regulation of the economy by the state (she suggests making oil companies, education and medicine public as well as charging high tariffs for imported goods) and gives the example of South America after world war two.  She says that Peronist Argentina and Uruguay exhibited this economic equilibrium.  Peron charged high tariffs for imported goods and Uruguay instituted healthcare and education for all.  Her book has even been criticised by the left as being too Kenseyen, as opposed to all out socialist/communist.  The Shock Doctrine refutes the idea that socialist systems are utopian and not practical.  One thing is certain: it is impossible for anyone to view capitalism in the same way after reading this Canadian journalists’ latest work. 

Some of it is very hard truths and, if you are like me, you will want to skip over all the gory descriptions of how Americans torture opponents of capitalism.  I don’t want that energy in my mind, although it is good that she puts it out in the public record because most Americans are very good people and would be shocked to learn just how widespread is the use of electric torture in the American political prisons for the last 57 years and increasingly so as now it has been formally legalized by Congress.  And until it these torturous methods are generally known they will continue. 

Most Americans aren’t even aware that we have political prisons.  Torture with electric shocks, stress positions and sensory deprivation are the special development of the CIA.  She says these CIA pioneered methods need to be acknowledged by the social sciences as an advancement in the art of killing people since the 18th century.  The CIA brought together psychologists and experiments and found something even worse than crucifixion or the inquisition.  If you doubt, just look at what Guantanamo has turned into.  A majority of prisoners have now all gone insane, become unable to speak, incontinent, screaming childish babble and rolling around on the floor sucking their thumbs.  But I’m not going into details and prefer skipping over those parts.   She makes the point, stunning, that we consider the crimes of communism to be part of the ideology and we, rightly, consider the ideology to blame.  Why not apply the same logic to capitalism.  Is the ideology blameless when it produces American gulags throughout the world and where opponents of capitalism are shocked again and again and again. She is so well-expressed!!!  It is basically a book about economics.  It is a stunning unpacking of free-trade, freemarkets and globalism.  She is in the forefront of left-wing thought today but doesn’t have the blindsided and doctrinaire qualities that characterize so many who write for magazines like The Nation or newspapers like The Guardian.  With one exception.  Only in one area is she short sighted, and that germane to her topic, disaster capitalism.  She has consistently been one to characterize the idea that the Bush regime planned 9/11 as a conspiracy theory and so chooses not to address it.  Even so, her book stands, maybe even the better, for leaving out this information.  Even with an understanding of 9/11, what is happening now needs to be seen as following what happened earlier, rather than a departure.  The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism should inform the social sciences on this issue for the next one hundred years.  There has been no book to date which chronicles the abuses of capitalism in quite the same way by giving the history and philosophy of this particular strain of free-market perversion (the Milton Freedman Chicago school of economics capitalism with the gloves off strain).  

All the time in the media we are told that democracy and markets are the wave of the future and socialism isn’t viable.  The Shock Doctrine is the antidote and should be checked out at libraries and local bookstores if just for the introduction. 

Neomi Klein will soon be in Portland to speak and sign books.

Bilderbergers openly advicate world government

November 25, 2007

 “We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.” Paul Warburg, CFR member, and architect of the Federal Reserve.

“Today, America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful!” Dr. Henry Kissinger, Bilderberger Conference, Evians, France, 1991.  A few years later the French police showed up at Kissinger’s Paris hotel to serve an international warrent for his arrest.

 “We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries.” David Rockefeller at a Bilderberg meeting.

“We are not going to achieve a new world order without paying for it in blood as well as in words and money.” Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., Bilderberg member, wrote these words in Foreign Affairs Magazine in July and August of 1995.

American concentration camps

November 25, 2007
There over 600 prison camps in the United States, all fully operational and ready to receive prisoners. They are all staffed and even surrounded by full-time guards, but they are all empty. These camps are to be operated by FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) should Martial Law need to be implemented in the United States. 

There are over 100 primary and secondary concentration camps across the US. Each houses about 20,000 prisoners. Currently the largest of these facilities is the just outside of Fairbanks, Alaska. The Alaskan facility is a gigantic mental health facility and can hold approximately 2 million people. The majority of these facilities have no prisoners but are currently staffed by military personal. The camps all have have railroad facilities, as well as roads, coming and going out of them, to get there. Also quite a few are closed down military bases and are adjacent to airport facilities.  FEMA itself operates from an underground military base near Washington DC called Mount Weather.  Many executive orders have recently been passed allowing for complete martial law in the case of an unspecified emergency.  These executive orders allow for mass detention of American citizens and the seizure of all public lands, media and transportation by the government.  They also allow for the indefinite postponing of American elections.  Many of these executive orders are in the public record.  Halliburten, operating under another no-bid contract, is currently constructing many more detention facilities because obviously 600 is not enough. 

       

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say goodbye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror
at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand. The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst; the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!”
- The Gulag Archipelago, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Who’s afraid of David Icke?

November 25, 2007

icke1 

This man has done some first rate research on 9/11 and Bilderberg.   Is David Icke a prophet? So what if he believes politicians are lizards that shapeshift into human beings and back again at the Bohemian Grove.  Here’s what David Icke has to say:

One of the first parts of the Illuminati network that new researchers discover is the group of organisations which connect into the British-based secret society called The Round Table. These include the Bilderberg Group, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission, and the Club of Rome.

This network is not the most powerful expression of the Illuminati. There are many more elite groups within it’s web, but these “Round Table” organisations are a key part of its day to day manipulation of politics, banking, business, the military (especially NATO), “education”, and so on

David Icke.

“Let me feel the weight of your decisions.”

November 22, 2007

A couple week ago I was standing in a shopping area of Portland waiting for the bus.  Two women and a man walked by.  They were so close I had to move to keep our bodies from touching.  It was okay.  Portlanders don’t demand personal space in the same way people do in other parts of the country, say in…Southern California.  The man walked a little ahead to make room for the two women on the sidewalk.  One of the women carried a bag in her right hand and talked about how she really went all out with her shopping.  The women to her side partially took the bag from her friend’s hand saying, “Let me feel the weight of your decisions.” 

Guilt verses Humility

November 21, 2007

The Holy fathers, as well as modern prophets of our church, enjoin us to think of ourselves as nothing.  The Martyrius of Edessa says, “Self-accusation before God is something that is very necessary for us.”  St. Silouan encourages us to, “Keep our mind’s in hell and despair not,” while the desert fathers tell us that the happy man is one who accuses himself first when any dispute arises.  “Forgive a brother who has wronged you before he is sorry,” and “In every trial do not blame other people but blame yourself, saying, ‘This has happened to me because of my sins.’”  We read further in the Desert Fathers that Antony said to Poemen, “Our great work is to lay the blame for our sins upon ourselves before God, and to expect to be tempted to our last breath.”  They tell us that, ”To be subject to all is not to give your attention to the sins of others but always to give your attention to your own sins and to pray without ceasing to God.” There is a whole chapter On Self Accusation in The Saying of Abba Dorotheus where he says, “In everything blame oneself.  There is no other way but this.”  Needless to say, self-accusation is important.  The Holy Fathers repeatedly tell us that the mia culpa is so basic a Christian tenet that without it no advances in the spiritual life can be made.

Earlier this year, August 2007, I visited my favorite monastery (the only monastery I have ever visited, but still my favorite) and on Sunday morning, as usual, there were many guests.  The Abbot read a portion from the life of St. Saraphim of Serov where the Saint discoursed on this very subject.  He then proceeded to wax eloquent. 

“Most Americans are so busy drowning in guilt,” he said, “that they would be totally unable to hear a message like this one.  American culture is based on guilt.”  Somebody asked the Abbot to elaborate.  “There are Shame-based societies and Guilt-based societies,” he continued.  “Asian cultures are shame-based whereas America is predominantly guilt-based.”

This is an hard saying, who can hear it.  For those who have grown up in guilt-based societies, hearing a message of blaming oneself is all but impossible.  We are taught to think well of ourselves, to tell ourselves how good we are, and to positively affirm our true potential.  Sadly, this kind of thinking has even crept into books giving advice to Christians on how to live.  This overreaction can only be present in people with a very deep seated sense of guilt. 

Archimandrite Sophrony has the answer.  He writes that, “ No one on this earth can avoid affliction; and although the afflictions which the Lord sends are not great men imagine them beyond their strength and are crushed by them. This is because they will not humble their souls and commit themselves to the will of God. But the Lord Himself guides with His grace those who are given over to God’s will, and they bear all things with fortitude for the sake of God Whom they have so loved and with Whom they are glorified for ever. It is impossible to escape tribulation in this world but the man who is giver over to the will of God bears tribulation easily, seeing it but putting his trust in the Lord, and so his tribulations pass.”  Another Father, I don’t remember who at the moment, says that God will never reveal more of our sin at one time than He knows we can handle.  Moreover, the whole concept of guilt is a western one and should be dismissed from any devotional context.  

 In Western theology, guilt is also strongly felt.  Inventions like original sin have each successive generation inhereting Adam’s sin.   The Western Church envisions Christ’s death as atoning for our sins.  God had to take a perfect sacrifice because the justice that was offended was Perfect.  It is like a Fiefdom in the middle ages where members of two rival Fiefdoms need to cross a narrow bridge.  There is only room for one group.  They square off.  A servant from one House kills the son of a Lord from the other House.  The Lord who’s son was killed doesn’t demand the blood of the servant.  He demands the son of the other Fiefdom.  Only then is justice served.  This dynamic was operational in the middle ages when the Catholic church worked out the doctrine of substitutional atonement, which was then passed on to Protestantism and lives on today in various incarnations.   Paul Evdokimov quotes Fr. Sergius Bulgakov describing this as ”penitential theology” in an essay which takes on various harsh theologies.  For the Eastern Church, salvation is not at all juridical.  It is not the sentence of a court of law.  The verb yacha in Hebrew means “to have some elbow-room,” to be at ease.  In the most general sense it means to deliver, to save from danger, from an illness, ultimately, to save from death.  It describes that which delivers.  Precisely and most particularly, it means to reestablish a living balance, to heal.  The substantive yecha, salvation, refers to complete deliverance with peace-shalom at the end.  The same ideas are found in the writings of the Greek Bishop, Hierotheos Vlachos. 

He defines Orthodoxy as medicine and says it is a therapeutic science.  In his book Orthodox Psychotherapy, Bishop Vlachos quotes Fr. John Romanides that, “The patristic tradition is neither a social philosophy nor an ethical system, nor is it religious dogmatism: it is a therapeutic treatment. In this respect it closely resembles medicine, especially psychiatry.”  The Bishop continues: From what has been said so far it is clear that Christianity is principally a science which cures, that is to say, a psychotherapeutic method and treatment. The same should be said of theology. It is not a philosophy but mainly a therapeutic treatment. Orthodox theology shows clearly that on the one hand it is a fruit of therapy and on the other hand it points the way to therapy. In other words, only those who have been cured and have attained communion with God are theologians, and they alone can show Christians the true way to reach the `place’ of cure. So theology is both a fruit and a method of therapy.  Only in this context can “heresy” make any sense.  Unfortunately, the word “heresy” is colored by images of Cardinals with prisons in their castles and witch hunts.  The early church didn’t persecute heretics and it certainly never forced anyone to be Christians.  In the East, heresy is defined as something that dilutes, or polutes, the medicine.  This is something that is misunderstood when I am having discussions with the few evangelical friends I have kept up with over the years, such as a missionary I know—, who was sent to the United States from Europe to preach the gospel.  Who would think of calling it heavy-handed  to fire a nurse at a hospital who had the propensity for mixing up medicines?  The Church’s doctrines are doctrines that heal, in conjuncton with the sacraments, and from this context are the anathamas understood. 

We have seen that theologically, as well as culturally, western society is guilt-based.  The antidote, ironically, is a spirituality which blames oneself.  Only then is true peace—and happiness—achieved.  Why?  Because the humble man is the happy one.  Although it is a paradox, the way to overcome guilt is through the humility which blames oneself.

British Left Waffles on Faulkland Islands.

November 20, 2007

      British Left Waflles on Falkland Islands, read the headlines yesterday. A coalition of left-wing groups ranging from labor-party activists to social democrats discussed this week the Falkland Islands affair.  After the chairman of the meeting pointed out the viability of “letting those damn Argentines eat cake”, the idea was roundly taken up.  It was decided that the best course of action would be to leave waffles behind.  After all, cake was too expensive and—with waffles—the metaphor might still be served. 

      “We were anxious to get on board with a policy that had some bite to it,” one senior member told the press.  “It should never be said that we allow our colonies to go hungry.”

      Conservatives were quick to criticize the measure as half-baked, but admitted there was nothing they could do.  “What you are seeing is a complete dominance of form over substance,” said a conservative party spokesperson.  “We think it is good to provide for contingencies,” he said, “and only time can tell weather these new proposals will stick.   But we were hoping for more than just rhetoric.  In the case of the present government, after so much gridlock, it is good they have come up with something.  We will all just have to wait and see if this pans out. ” 

      The chairman replied vociferously after hearing the words of the conservative party spokesperson.  “For twenty years all the conservatives have given us are these bread and butter proposals,” he said.  “Now that we are doing something really innovative, they complain.  Nothing they have done in this regard has stuck.  This new measure has sticking power because it is truly altruistic.”

Dare we hope for the salvation of all?

November 19, 2007

As Christians we are here to affirm the supreme value in direct sharing, of immediate encounter — not machine to machine, but person to person, face to face. 

                    Bishop Kallistos Ware “The Mysery of the Human Person.”

 He is not the fearful Judge but he is Love and the very love which subjectively becomes suffering among the outcasts and joy among the blessed.  Sinners in hell are not deprived of divine love, but estrangement from the source, poverty and emptiness of heart, make them incapable of responding to the love of God, which in turn produces suffering; but this cannot continue, for after the Parousia-revelation of God, one cannot but love Christ.  How can this happen without suffering when the heart’s substance is impoverished to the point of making it mute? 

                                        Paul Evdokimov

       

Bishop Kallistos Ware, arguably the most important Orthodox scholar of this century has written an essay called, “Dare We Hope for the Salvation of All”, in a collection called “The Inner Kingdom”, where he references George MacDonald, C.S. Lewis and other church fathers.  It is a great essay (that’s putting it mildly!) and the only one I have found so far which can clearly state the Orthodox position on this doctrine which everyone wonders about (if they say they don’t wonder about it then they are probably not telling the truth).  I first read it in a collection of his while visiting my favorite monastery, but have recently discovered the work is available online and want to encourage my friends to read it.  It can be assessed through google by typing in keywords such as The Inner Kingdom or Kallistos Ware George MacDonald.  It is too large to reprint here.

When I bring up this subject, many of my aquaintences say “Case closed”.  They are usually not very far away from bringing up Origin and the anathemas, or else I feel them just around the corner.  Often these people seem to be unconsiously operating under a protestant frame of reference (although they would vigorously deny this).  The tendency to apply to church fathers and church councels an authority which the bible had for them previously undercuts the sheer diveristy within church tradition, as solo-scripturaundercuts the diversity within scripture.  For my part, I have no problem seeing the whole tradition as inspired, even if everything can’t be made to line up point by point in agreement.  Even John Meyendorf, former dean of St. Vladimir’s Seminary, while agreeing with the doctrine of eternal punishment, admits that the case against Origin—as commonly applied—is not categorical in this respect.  He refers to the doctrine of the “second resurrection” (a long Greek word), commonly used as a synonym for Universal Salvation and explains that this is more close to reincarnation than Univesralism and while the anathama has authority, not everything Origin taught is thrown out.  Paul Evdokoma, likewise, an Orthodox luminary in the first half of the 20th century and pioneer in the ecumenical movement, goes even further.  He says that the counsel which condemned the “second resurrection” was hastily convened for political reasons and questions its authenticity.  To illustrate its political motivations, he stresses that it was very uncommon for church fathers to posthumously condemn well regarded fathers.  He says that the Emperor, for personal reasons, brought a list of doctrines he wanted the cancel to ratify, including which was the anathamas which were directed against Origin.  It is true that certain of Origins teachings were condemned.  There is no question about that.  But Origin taught many things that were not condemned and which are affirmed by the church.  To attribute Universal Salvation to the condemnations is absurd.   Paul Evdokimov repeats John Meyendorf’s belief that what was condemned at this counsel dealing with Origin was not what we think of today as Universal Salvation but something more esoteric, the pre-existence of the soul and the belief that in the resurrection everyone returns to his original place before the fall.  

The article “Dare We Hope for the Salvation of All” by Kallistos Ware is useful for evaluating the constrasting strands in our tradition.  He ends his essay by a humorous story of a trip to Greece he took.  He had been waiting for some time alone with this Greek Bishop.  When it finally happened and they got into the car together, he popped the question which is the title of this essay: Dare we hope for the salvation of all?  He records the Bishop’s reply, which was a gruff ”Mind your own business.” 

 This humility—characteristic of our tradition—is probably more important than the question itself.  Before I was Orthodox, I called myself “a universalist”.  Looking back, I can see that this was all I believed in.  I demanded grace of God.  Pope Benedict, in his book Introduction to Christianity, written before he was Pope, says that modern man thinks he deserves heaven and it is uphill work to try and convince him of his sinfulness.  The realiziation of the falsity of my Universalist position mostly dawned on me gradually.  Realizing that the concept of fire and brimstore, eternal torment is not part of the Eastern mindset was major.  Universalism seems to spring from cultures with a very deep strain of harsh theology as a reaction to this “penitential theology”.  Indeed, in traditional Christianity the fire of hell is a metaphor.  Everyone goes to be with God after they die, but to those who are unprepared they receive God’s love as something which burns.  Because there is no dualism in Orthodoxy, a separate realm for the devil and sinners (Dante’s vision), co-existing throughout time with heaven, is foreign.  Maybe that is why I’ve never heard of an Eastern Orthodox person unlearning his faith and arriving at a belief in Universalism.  But these realizations were gradual.  There were some moments, however, when giant steps were made.  One of those moments I would like to share. 

 I was taking a catechism class at a church in Milwuakie, OR.  It might have been after I was baptised or shortly before, I don’t remember.  (I miss those classes so much, but it is not practical for me to attend because I don’t have a car and there is a weather factor.)  One of the tricks I used to support my position was the burden of proof.  Assume hell (as popularly conceived) doesn’t exist and then if anyone brings it up argue that they are contradicting God’s love.  The priest mentioned eternal hell during the class and I raised my hand.  I said that what the priest was telling us was incredable because it made God into a monster and I couldn’t even begin to feel that hell existed. 

He said, “Okay,” and then proceeded to tell a story.  “During a sermon last year I asked ‘what is it about all these horror movies and monster movies that have just come out, and computer games depicting demons and witches and goules that attract so much of our youth?  And why aren’t Christians drawn to this sort of thing?’  Afterwards a man came up to me and said, ‘We don’t need all this because we know it is real.  We already have an idea of the reality of the demonic realm.’  In cultures where there isn’t an understanding of hell, the popular myths will create one.”  I was pretty much knocked on my feet.  It certainly wasn’t the answer I was expecting, but it floored me and I never saw things the same after that.  Looking back I can see that I was soft on sin, mostly my own.  We are the product of our ideas.  We live out—to a remarkable extent—the (often unconscious) philosophies and worldviews we choose to align ourselves with.  In my case, those philosophies made me soft on sin.  The title of Kallistos Ware’s essay is Dare We Hope For the Salvation of All.  The opperatonal word here is ‘hope’.  “Minding our own business” is just as central as speculating about where we go after we die.

Looking back, I can see that the process of unlearning my Universalism would have been more smooth, beneficial, and enjoyable, if I had have been allowed to do it myself, rather than having other converts tell me I was wrong and demand that I change my views.  As I found out later, through reading articles like the one’s Kallistos Ware and Paul Evdokimov, there is “elbow room” in our tradition for this.

What about Bilderberg?

November 19, 2007

 

During a recent Minnesota fund raiser for his wife’s campaign, Bill Clinton was interrupted while giving a speech in front of two thousand people.  Members of an organized conspiracy group called the former President’s words a fraud and disrupting his speech by yelling, “Why don’t you talk about 9/11?”  and “What about Bilderberg?” 

    

When one member of the group was thrown out by security, another, quiet up until that point, would begin.   This courageous activism elicited wild reactions from the corporate press, including comparisons of 9/11 truth groups with Nazis.  The comparison is odd, and a striking example of projection since these television pundits have inherited the spirit of appeasement.  Almost as surprising as this spurt of activism was rare, was the ability of two thousand people to sit through the Bill Clinton’s speech in silence.

 

We should all be going to public meetings and disrupting them, asking city and local government officials, “Why don’t you talk about 9/11?” and “What about Bilderberg?”  Bilderberg meetings seek to undermine the sovereignty of the United States in a variety of ways, which have been spelled out in their own internal documents.  For American politicians to secretly attend these meetings is treason, in clear violation of existing laws, such as the Login Act, which says that unauthorized American citizens are not allowed to negotiate with foreign power brokers and foreign governments.  If we as Americans are not willing to engage in such minimal and relatively safe forms of activism, we should go ahead and have the name Neville Chamberlain tattooed across our chests. 

 

Here are some more questions I would like to see asked at public meetings:

 

What about the 800 prison camps Kellog, Brown and Root is currently constructing across the United States under another no-bid contract?

Is there a plan to merge the United States with Canada and Mexico to form a North American Union?

Why is the Federal Reserve driving down of the dollar?  Is this to make it desirable to later have The Amero, a North American currency?

What about the—at least—fifteen war games the U.S. military and CIA was conducting on 9/11?

Why does the media refuse to report on Rudolph Guliani’s mafia ties and his security companies’ links to terrorism?

What about the many U.S. government agents who were on the two flights which crashed into the towers (including three who worked in Raytheon’s remote control airplane division)?

What doesn’t the media report that top CIA and DEA officials have publicly claimed that most cocaine and heroin is brought into the United States either directly by the CIA or under its auspices?

What about the Dutch demolition expert who admitted on Dutch telivision that Building 7 was a good example of a controlled demolition?

Why did most of the media censor a recent death bed confession of former intelligence operative E. Howard Hunt, confessing to involvement in the John F. Kennedy assassination, after he sent the tape to his son Saint John Hunt in Eureka, CA?

 

These are relevant questions and would be major news stories if they were covered. If covered sympathetically, they would provoke outrage.  With determined activism and gorilla news tactics, these things do make headlines.  The disruption of the Clinton speech made headlines and was widely reported.  We just need more young people with the energy and motivation to shout the truth from the rooftops.

Germboys, Executive Orders and Vaccines

November 17, 2007

—-A beautiful baby!  

John and Samantha were so excited when they brought their baby home from the hospital.  Samantha was Canadian and so, even though John had a job in the United States, they traveled to Canada to have the baby.  They were poor and couldn’t afford the high costs of hospital fees.  Their new daughter was named Sarah, after the most beautiful women in the bible.  When home, Sarah drank unpasteurized milk from her mother, made all the more nutritious by the quality food from their garden Sarah’s mother ate.  There was always a smile on Sarah’s face which caused John and Samantha to wonder if their baby might not be the happiest one of all their acquaintance. Whenever she did cry, they changed her or nursed her until she was happy again. When Sarah was six months old, they took her to church to be baptized.  Everything seemed complete.  Five years later John and Samantha were told Sarah couldn’t enter public school.  Why…because she hadn’t been vaccinated. 

Sound like fiction?  This is exactly what is facing 2,300 parents in Maryland where, according to the Washington Post, they may now face jail time and costly fines for refusing to have their children vaccinated.  The children are not allowed to start school until the inoculations take place.  The jail time for the parents is for “truancy”, although this has been identified as vaccination through the backdoor.  Some colleges and universities are now making childhood vaccines a requirement for entry while the sheer number of vaccines now being recommended is steadily growing.  Parents aren’t taking it quietly.

 

“Doctors are charging parents extra for bringing up the subject,” says Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, who heads up the Osteo Med II clinic in Ohio, a center providing alternative and traditional medicine.  Speaking on the popular radio program Coast to Coast am this week, she said  “Doctors have adopted a paternalistic attitude towards their patients,” she said.  “They complain that parents think they know best and have started fining them—or walking out—for bringing up vaccines.”  [this is a paraphrase of her words based on memory]

 

Time Magazine and Newsweek have said parents think they know better than their doctors. Parents who choose a diet for their children, even if not an ideal diet, are more informed about health than those families which do not eat consciously at all. Conversely, parents who decide which vaccines they want their children to have, and which ones they don’t, are going to be more informed than parents who don’t ask any questions at all. Moreover, our whole legal system relies on the ability of lay people to evaluate claims of competing experts.  There is simply no basis to assert that parents—or journalists—-are incapable of educating themselves on this matter and making an informed decision.

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny has been working for years to educate parents about the dangers and health risks associated with vaccines.  She says that vaccines often do not work, contain dangerous chemicals (formaldehyde) and metals (mercury and aluminum), and work to suppress the immune system.  She writes:

If a “dirty bomb” exposed a large segment of US citizens simultaneously to Hepatitis B, Hepatitis A, tetanus, pertussis, diphtheria, Haemophilus influenza B, three strains of polio viruses, 3 strains of influenza viruses, measles, mumps, and rubella viruses, the chickenpox virus, and 7 strains of Streptococcus bacteria, we would declare a national emergency. We would call it an “extreme act of BIOTERRORISM”. The public outcry would be immense and our government would act accordingly. And yet, those are the very organisms that we inject through vaccines into our babies and our small children, with immature, underdeveloped immune systems. Many are given all at the same time. But instead of bioterrorism, we call it “protection.” Reflect a moment on that irony.

   —-Do vaccines contain mercury?   

Dr. Joseph Mercola, who runs a natural health website and is the author of Take Control of Your Health, has repeatedly stated that flu vaccines contain mercury and urged people not to receive flu shots, which many still do annually.  Other health experts have repeated similar concerns about the way mercury is used in medical science, including its widespread use in dentistry.  Many of the ingredients in vaccines are proprietary and new legislation has legalized pharmaceutical company’s determination to never disclose the ingredients.  New laws make them immune from lawsuits.  For this reason, it is hard to say exactly what is in many of the vaccines.  But are they helping?  Are grade-school children now free from contracting Hepatitis B (a disease only associated with sexual intercourse and intravenous drug use)? 

 

According to an article in the Oregonian this year, one in every 150 kids is now born with some form of Autism.  Some argue that these numbers, astonishing if they are to be believed, are because of the expanding definition of autism and the autism spectrum disorders.  If this is so, it is only because we now seek words to explain a disease that was unheard of 100 years ago.  We now have to seriously ask if vaccines are maybe creating an emergency unprecedented in our nations history.  Is a health emergency facing us because of the medical establishment’s obsession with getting everyone inoculated? Many books and articles have been written on the mercury/autism connection and the vaccines that perhaps facilitate autism although categorical evidence is lacking.  But there are other diseases associated with getting vaccinated.

 

Gulf war syndrome is a generic word describing a whole host of symptoms plaguing our armed forces from chronic fatigue to multiple chemical sensitivity.  It is interesting that military men and women receive many vaccines, lining up in a row to receive one after the other, including inoculations against anthrax.  There have been many cases of sudden and serious illness following these shots.  The amount soldiers’ children born with autism and birth defects is shocking.  Gulf War Syndrome is not, however, a recognized medical ailment as that would make these soldiers eligible for free care in VA hospitals.

 

 

—–Germboys and Bolsheviks

 

 

It is ironic that parents are not now allowed to choose what is best for their children after educating themselves, and depicted as fools in the corporate media when they do, but politicians are. New laws passed by congress and executive orders passed by the White House, allow for mandatory vaccines in the event of an unspecified emergency or bird-flu.  The legislation states clearly that an emergency is one that is defined by the executive branch and those who refuse these potential vaccines, as these parents do now in Maryland, can be quarantined.  Similar proposals by members of Bush Administration, such as one put forward by the now indicted Lewis I “Skooter” Libby, allow for low flying aircraft to administer vaccines to whole cities in the new American century.  This aid to the Vice President was so obsessed with getting everyone immunized that he was known to Bush’s cabinet as Germboy.  He even wrote a novel about a smallpox epidemic which required governments to take action and implement a mass vaccination program.  Scooter Libby advocated—along with others in the present government, using race based bioweapons as a tool of warfare, in a secret document that was leaked to the New York Times, after which Scooter Libby did not deny being one of the signatories.   Libby was present, along with New York Times reporter Judith Miller—who went to jail in the case which finally indicted Libby, when the Vice President oversaw a war game dealing with a bioterror attack.  The possibility of a pandemic is real and caution is needed.  But only after we face the hazard arising from the many bioweapons labs and disease experiments that go on in this country will we be in a position to deal effectively—or even talk—about any pandemic mother nature may send.  We have just finished a couple years hype about bird-flu.  It faded just as quickly as the SARS scare.  The weekend before a possible bird-flu first hit the news, and Eastern Europeans started slaughtering their birds in response, there was a front page article in the New York Times, which might as well have been on the last page.  It said that United States government scientists had travelled to Alaska to dig up the frozen remains of some men who had died in the great flu epidemic of 1917 and were preparing to recreate the virus in a laboratory.  It is a truth that our government has, in the past, experimented on its people.  That is admitted now in declassified documents. There is no basis to assume our government isn’t capable of unleashing a virus to consolidate its power.  And when you look at this present government, there is every reason to believe they could—and would—be capable of creating a problem to bring in the predetermined solution.

 

 

 —A New Paradigm in Health 

 

 

Weston Price, when he traveled around the world looking at the diets of various healthy cultures known for their longevity, found that the unchlorinated, unfluoridated water the children drank had trace amounts of polio and other childhood diseases which acted as a natural inoculation.  Alternative health experts have observed that our immune systems are too pure and need the stimulation from bacteria and germs found in unpasteurized dairy products and water from many third world countries.  A recent study printed in National Geographic confirmed this.  It found that children who had grown up with barnyard animals in the house had fewer cases of adult illness and the flu.  Moreover, the basis of good health, according to naturopathic physician and yoga instructor Laura Washington, who practices in Portland, OR—where I live, is the autonomic nervous system.  The established medical community doesn’t even recognize the existence of the autonomic nervous system, but it is the basis for feeling good.  She has explained to me that having an autonomic nervous system on track allows everything else to freely function.  It could be as simple as giving up a food, or naturally correcting some deficiency in the endocrine system.  Oftentimes people assume that they just don’t feel good because of other factors, such as depression or temperament, and don’t look further.  The presupposition of the prevailing medical doctrine is that illnesses and mental afflictions have no real cause and cannot be treated.  This ignorance even prevails among many alternative health professionals.  The Paradigm of health that Weston Price discovered and wrote about is the answer to all the illnesses facing us today, and it is enjoyable.  He says that animal fat is good and that meet is good, along with everything that is natural.  We can have death by diet, or health by diet, according to Weston Price.  Real food, however, is becoming scarce.

 

 

It will be uphill work for anyone who wants to implement Weston Price’s findings in their lives. The case in Maryland may be a test for the resolve of these parents who now face jail time for refusing to have their children vaccinated.  New hurdles await even after a possible victory in this Maryland case, which is by no means yet certain now that colleges and universities are requiring students to show vaccinations before entry and the immigration requirements in this regard are also becoming more strict. 

 

 

Recently a similar case arose in Texas when Governor Rick Perry signed an executive order demanding all 11 and 12 years old girls to get vaccinated for cervical cancer, a sexually transmitted disease.  He was forced to rescind the directive after a popular outcry.  That laws are now being passed mandating vaccination of children against sexually transmitted diseases (cervical cancer and hepatitis B); that healthy college kids should be required to go back and receive childhood vaccines, shows an inoculation ideology separated from any real health concerns.

 

 

This worries me.  Will my future children not be able to attend public school unless they are first vaccinated?  I don’t want any vaccines for my future children.  Will I go to jail for feeding raw goats’ milk to my children?   Already the Environmental Protection Agency shows up on organic farms with guns to close down the raw milk operations.  What about the rights of the consumer?  Will I have to raise my children in another country because the land of my birth has grown unsafe?  Do we even want to live in a country so Leninist?  Is the idyllic story of John and Samantha bringing their baby home and allowing God and nature to do the rest only a pipe dream?  American people are too quiescent.  Laws such as Congress’ Biodefence and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act of 2005 and the many Executive orders dealing with the subject, to which I have alluded, only occur if we let them.  These laws should not be surprising in a country where the President says to members of congress that he thinks “the constitution is just a god-damn piece of paper.”  The reaction of the American people, or non-reaction, however, is quite shocking. We have the power.  For example, if the American people had have started demanding raw milk when health food stores first become in-vogue, there might now be a thriving raw milk industry.  The same is true for vaccines. It is time to stand up and demand our rights.

Why is this popular Spanish group unheard of in the United States?  Are we not part of a world community?

Because they’re crap. My mate had them on his tour as a support band, and they wanted half an hour to sound check, and all they do is bloody mime. Groups like this are the reason you should continue to jealously guard your borders. They can do more harm than a hundred loony fundamentalists!

a secret club

November 13, 2007

 

There is a group—or club—that is comprised of European royalty, political powerbrokers, military leaders, politicians, bankers and media magnates, so secretive that the hotels where they meet are first completely cleared of staff and guests. A new staff is brought in along with a hand picked security entrouage from the United States, Britian and Isreal. They have been meeting in secret every year since the end of the second world war. Their stated agendas include one world government and the elimination of half the world’s population. Their shadow has been cast over all major 20th century events in the last 60 years from the fall of the Berlin Wall, to the forming of the Euorpean Union, to the attacks on Serbia and the bombing of Belgrade. Yet no books on 20th century history mentions the name of this elite club. Welcome to the…Bilderberg group.

A club so secretive that the hotel and security staff brought in to attend to these monsters are threatened before the conference begins about the consequences of speaking to the media. Although many members of the leading media (Time Magazine, the New York Times, the Economist, CBS, ABC etc) are present, they are as silent about the proceedings.

There plan for global population reduction isn’t just talk. They have funded birth control, eugenics movements and abortion. There is evidence that they created the AIDS virus and pressured China to adopt the one child policy. (Actually, let me recant. I’ve been advised not to just toss around this word ‘evidence’ lightly. There are some suspicious things about the way the desease developed, but I don’t think anyone knows for sure where or how it started). They have now used Depleted Uranium on four countries: Lebenon, Afghanastan, Iraq and Serbia, essentially nuclear weapons and a horribel war crime. On Iraq alone the amount of depleted uranium that has been dropped so far is equal to 45 Hiroshima size bombs. Likewise, their plan for world government is not just talk. The collapse of the dollar which we are witnessing is a plan to merge the currencies of the United States with Mexico and Canada, thus creating the Amerio.

President’s and Prime Ministers bow to the wishes of Bilderberg. One cannot be elected President without Bilderberg approval. Most US presidents and prime ministers are first screened by the Bilderberg club. Whenever the Bilderberg club meets their security is provided free of charge by the CIA, MI6 and the Musad. The few enterprising reporters who have spent a life following the moves of the Bilderberg’s are ridiculed in the mainstream press as conspiracy theorists. These reporters have consistently received information about the groups plans, and its itinerary—,as well as the names of its members and guests, from disaffected moles on the inside.

But what are the Bilderberg’s saying about themselves.

“We are not going to achieve a new world order without paying for it in blood as well as in words and money.” Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., in Foreign Affairs (July/August 1995)

“Today, America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful!” Dr. Henry Kissinger, Bilderberger Conference, Evians, France, 1991

“The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government combining supercapitalism and Communism under the same tent, all under their control…. Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent.” Congressman Larry P. McDonald, 1976, killed in the Korean Airlines 747 that was shot down by the Soviets

“We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries.” David Rockefeller.

 

“We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.”
—Paul Warburg, CFR member, and architect of the Federal Reserve.

 

“The constitution is just a god-damn piece of paper,” President George W. Bush, reported to Capital Hill Blue by republican and democratic congressman who received this response after they complained about some torture legislation.

 

I’m reminded of the French police document that the Spanish reporter Daniele Estelen was able to see, from 1946, which described a plot they had discovered by synarchist bankers to form a United Europe. The French police, unlike our police at the threat of merging with Mexico and Canada, took the threat very seriously. Some of the same power brokers who had funded Nazism had now moved on to less over plans after two world wars had failed to unite Europe.

Alex Jones new film, Endgame, is about Bilderberg. I highly recommend getting a copy from me. One point which he makes in the film is that if their intentions are benign, why do they hide from us, why fear publicity so much. Why evolve the North American Union by stealth? If world government is such a good thing, why not have a referendum on the United States.

When I first discovered dissident literature on the even of the Iraq invasion, I read mostly left-wing stuff. Over the last two years I have discovered the wealth and wisdom of conservative dissident thought. Alex Jones once said, “I’m not a conservative or a liberal. I’m an American.” Everyone has a different piece of the puzzle. Only by coming together can we defeat the monolithic conspiracy that is plaguing our world. For this to happen, the world’s of the religion would have to unite. Our world is facing an emergency and only an ecumenical movement can solve the emergency. As such, it would be necessary for the great religions of the world to see that the enemy was secular humanism and Bilderbergism… not each other.

The crisis that is facing our country is immanent. As I write, Colleg, Brown and Root, operating under a no-bid contract, is furiously constructing detention centers all over the country. There own documents say that they are for Americas domestic population. Some of them have already been build and are staffed with armed guards. The laws about vaccines that have come out are also astonishing and most people are completely unaware of them. And then we have the Project for the New American Century, which was leaked to the New York Times, written by the current Bush cabinet. They say they want to put missiles and bombs in outer space, aim them at earth, have race based bioweapons. Canadian Professor Michel Chivodosky has rightly called it, “A blueprint for world domination.”

And it is just beginning.  Whistle-blowers are coming out of underground military bases and describing the way the NSA kidnaps children in American and England, the only two countries with such well-developed underground bases and UFO’s, and the underground gulags in the United States.

Here are just some of the presidential directives and executive orders the Bush administration has singed:

President George W. Bush has signed executive orders giving him sole authority to impose martial law, suspend habeas corpus and ignore the Posse Comitatus Act that prohibits deployment of U.S. troops on American streets, for undefined emergencies or emergencies, including weather or health, that is defined by the president.Executive Order 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.

Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.

Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period.
Executive Order 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in every aspect of the nation

loose change final cut

November 10, 2007

Tomorrow Loose Change final cut is available. We shouldn’t wait for marching orders, but organize campaigns to get our local theatres to show this film.  9/11 truth meetings, in my experience, have the tendency to spend too much time on the theatrical and venting, perhaps competing for good ideas, and miss the opportunities which abound within our local medias.

The 9/11 truth movement is unique in that it has been able to push one issue, 9/11, into the popular consciousness.  I am calling for a united front with regard to Loose Change and a national campaign to popularize it.

While Loose Change has the potential to break the truth about 9/11 wide open and push it even further into the cultural zeitgeist, it is not going to happen unless groups of people reach out to their local independent cinemas and insist they show it.  Most American cities have independent movie theatres.  Portland, OR, where I live, is pretty good in that respect with at least half a dozen independent theatres showing all manner of documentaries. 

Once theatre owners and managers grasp that there is money to be made from showing Loose Change, they will capitulate. 

dollar crises

November 9, 2007

I want to know why nobody is saying the current dollar crises is the fault of the current administration.  People seem to buy the line that these are just “market forces”. That wasn’t what the new chairmen of the Fed was thinking when he accepted the post by declaring he was prepared to print fiat money and drop it from airplanes.  What I have been finding out about the Federal Reserve these last few months is actually quite shocking.  For example, I learned that a few months before he was assisinated, President John F. Kennedy started printing United States Notes and threatened to put the Federal Reserve out of business.  That’s why I’m giving away coppies of the DVD America: From Freedom to Fascism.  The game is up.What the Bush administration has done to devalue the dollar may turn out to be more devestating to the middle class than pulling a 9/11 or the costly war in Iraq.   Well, actually…some people do notice and are speaking out.  Ron Paul is one of these people.  See below, this pulled from www.Prisonplanet.com 

Ron Paul Says Federal Reserve ‘Robbed’ Americans of their Wealth

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke appeared before the Congressional Joint Economic Committee on November 8, but had to face criticism from Republican presidential candidate and Texas congressman Ron Paul.

Paul made accusations the Federal Reserve was stealing people’s money.

“There is a dollar crisis out and people’s money being stolen,” Paul said. “People who have saved, they’re being robbed. I mean, if you have a devaluation of the dollar at 10 percent, people have been robbed of 10 percent.”

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke attempted to dispel the notion people were being “robbed” of their money by explaining the relativity of the dollar in a local economy.“If somebody has their wealth in dollars and they’re going to buy consumer goods in dollars, then as a typical American … then the decline in the dollar – the only effect it has on their buying power is that it makes imported goods more expensive,” Bernanke replied.

As I’ve been researching the Federal Reserve, over the last few months, I’ve discovered that our American money leads right back to the British royalty, and, even more so, to the backs of London.  Queen Elixebeth didn’t knifght Allen Greenspan for nothing.  He spent his career diverting American money and tax dollars to British banks.  That’s why this quote from the general surrendering to George Washington struck such a chord with me.  I couldn’t believe it.  Of course, the Freemasons have morphed into groups like the Bildergerg’s, but all the Bilderberg members are Freemasons.   His quotes about American Christianity likewise ring true.  This was taken from a website: http://www.apfn.org/APFN/reserve2.htm

Jonathan Williams recorded in his book Legions of Satan, 1781, that Cornwallis revealed to Washington during his surrender that “a holy war will now begin on America, and when it is ended America will be supposedly the citadel of freedom, but her millions will unknowingly be loyal subjects to the Crown.” Cornwallis went on to explain what would seem to be a self contradiction: “Your churches will be used to teach the Jew’s religion and in less than two hundred years the whole nation will be working for divine world government. That government that they believe to be divine will be the British Empire. All religions will be permeated with Judaism without even being noticed by the masses, and they will all be under the invisible all-seeing eye on the Grand Architect of Freemasonry.”
