As the mainstream media continues to be obsessed with Anthony Weiner and his bizarre adventures on Twitter, much more serious events are happening around the world that are getting very little attention. In America today, if the mainstream media does not cover something it is almost as if it never happened. Right now, the worst nuclear disaster in human history continues to unfold in Japan , U.S. nuclear facilities are being threatened by flood waters, the U.S. military is bombing Yemen, gigantic cracks in the earth are appearing all over the globe and the largest wildfire in Arizona history is causing immense devastation. But Anthony Weiner, Bristol Palin and Miss USA are what the mainstream media want to tell us about and most Americans are buying it.
In times like these, it is more important than ever to think for ourselves. The corporate-owned mainstream media is not interested in looking out for us. Rather, they are going to tell us whatever fits with the agenda that their owners are pushing.
That is why more Americans than ever are turning to the alternative media. Americans are hungry for the truth, and they know that the amount of truth that they get from the mainstream media continues to decline.
The following are 12 things that the mainstream media is being strangely quiet about right now....
#1 The crisis at the Fort Calhoun nuclear facility in Nebraska has received almost no attention in the national mainstream media.
Back on June 7th, there was a fire at Fort Calhoun. The official story is that the fire was in an electrical switchgear room at the plant. The facility lost power to a pump that cools the spent fuel pool for approximately 90 minutes. According to the Omaha Public Power District, the fire was quickly extinguished and no radioactive material was released.
The following sequence of events is directly from the Omaha Public Power District website....
- There was no such imminent danger with the Fort Calhoun Station spent-fuel pool.
- Due to a fire in an electrical switchgear room at FCS on the morning of June 7, the plant temporarily lost power to a pump that cools the spent-fuel pool.
- The fire-suppression system in that switchgear room operated as designed, extinguishing the fire quickly.
- FCS plant operators switched the spent-fuel pool cooling system to an installed backup pump about 90 minutes after the loss of power.
- During the interruption of cooling, temperature of the pool increased a few degrees, but the pool was never in danger of boiling.
- Due to this situation, FCS declared an Alert at about 9:40 a.m. on June 7.
- An alert is the second-least-serious of four emergency classifications established by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
- At about 1:15 p.m. on June 7, FCS operators declared they had taken all appropriate measures to safely return to the previously declared Notification of Unusual Event emergency classification. (See first item above.)
But the crisis at Fort Calhoun is not over. Right now, the nuclear facility at Fort Calhoun is essentially an island. It is surrounded by rising flood waters from the Missouri River.
Officials claim that there is no danger and that they are prepared for the river to rise another ten feet.
The Cooper Nuclear Station in Brownville, Nebraska is also being threatened by rising flood waters. A "Notification of Unusual Event" was declared at Cooper Nuclear Station this morning at 4:02. This notification was issued because the Missouri River's water level reached 42.5 feet.
Right now the facility is operating normally and officials don't expect a crisis.
But considering what has been going on at Fukushima, it would be nice if we could have gotten a lot more coverage of these events by the mainstream media.
#2 Most Americans are aware that the U.S. is involved in wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. However, the truth is that the U.S. military is also regularly bombing Yemen and parts of Pakistan. If you count the countries where the U.S. has special forces and/or covert operatives on the ground, the U.S. is probably "active" in more countries in the Middle East than it is not. Now there are even persistent rumors that U.S. ground units are being prepared to go into Libya. Are we watching the early stages of World War 3 unfold before our eyes in slow motion?
#3 The crisis at Fukushima continues to get worse. Arnold Gundersen, a former nuclear industry senior vice president, recently made the following statement about the Fukushima disaster....
"Fukushima is the biggest industrial catastrophe in the history of mankind"
TEPCO has finally admitted that this disaster has released more radioactive material into the environment than Chernobyl did. That makes Fukushima the worst nuclear disaster of all time, and it is far from over.
Massive amounts of water is being poured into the spent fuel pools in order to keep them cool. This is creating "hundreds of thousands of tons of highly radioactive sea water" that has got to go somewhere. Inevitably much of it will get into the ground and into the sea.
Arnold Gundersen says that the scope of this problem is almost unimaginable....
"TEPCO announced they had a melt through. A melt down is when the fuel collapses to the bottom of the reactor, and a melt through means it has melted through some layers. That blob is incredibly radioactive, and now you have water on top of it. The water picks up enormous amounts of radiation, so you add more water and you are generating hundreds of thousands of tons of highly radioactive water."
The mainstream media is not paying as much attention to Fukushima these days, but that doesn't mean that it is not a major league nightmare.
Elevated levels of radiation are being reported by Japanese bloggers all over eastern Japan. There are reports of sick children all over the region. One adviser to the government of Japan says that an area approximately 17 times the size of Manhattan is probably going to be uninhabitable.
Of course the mainstream media has been telling us all along that Fukushima is nothing to be too concerned about and that authorities in Japan have everything under control.
If the mainstream media is not going to tell us the truth, how are they going to continue to have credibility?
#4 Members of Congress continue to mention Christians as a threat to national security. For example, during a recent Congressional hearing U.S. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee warned that "Christian militants" might try to "bring down the country" and that such groups need to be investigated.
#5 China's eastern province of Zhejiang has experienced that worst flooding that it has seen in 55 years. 2 million people have already been forced to leave their homes. China has already been having huge problems with their crops over the past few years and this is only going to make things worse.
#6 Thanks to the Dodd-Frank Act, over the counter trading of gold and silver is going to be illegal starting on July 15th. Or at least that is what some companies apparently now believe. The following is an excerpt from an email that Forex.com recently sent out to their customers....
Important Account Notice Re: Metals Trading
We wanted to make you aware of some upcoming changes to FOREX.com’s product offering. As a result of the Dodd-Frank Act enacted by US Congress, a new regulation prohibiting US residents from trading over the counter precious metals, including gold and silver, will go into effect on Friday, July 15, 2011.
In conjunction with this new regulation, FOREX.com must discontinue metals trading for US residents on Friday, July 15, 2011 at the close of trading at 5pm ET. As a result, all open metals positions must be closed by July 15, 2011 at 5pm ET.
We encourage you to wind down your trading activity in these products over the next month in anticipation of the new rule, as any open XAU or XAG positions that remain open prior to July 15, 2011 at approximately 5:00 pm ET will be automatically liquidated.
We sincerely regret any inconvenience complying with the new U.S. regulation may cause you. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact our customer service team.
Sincerely,
The Team at FOREX.com
Apparently, Section 742(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act prohibits anyone "from entering into, or offering to enter into, a transaction in any commodity with a person that is not an eligible contract participant or an eligible commercial entity, on a leveraged or margined basis."
So what impact is this going to have on the gold and silver markets?
Nobody is quite sure yet.
#7 All over the world, huge cracks are appearing for no discernible reason. For example, a massive crack that is approximately 3 kilometers long recent appeared in southern Peru. Also, a 500 foot long crack suddenly appeared recently in the state of Michigan. When you also throw in all of the gigantic sinkholes that have been opening all over the world, it is easy to conclude that the planet is becoming very unstable.
#8 According to U.S. Forest Service officials, the largest wildfire in Arizona state history has now covered more than 500,000 acres. But based on the coverage it is being given by the mainstream media you would think that it is a non-event.
#9 There are reports that North Korea has tested a "super EMP weapon" which would be capable of taking out most of the U.S. power grid in a single shot. The North Koreans are apparently about to conduct another nuclear test and that has some Obama administration officials very concerned.
#10 All over the United States, "active shooter drills" are being conducted in our public schools. Often, most of the students are not told that these drills are fake. Instead, students often go through hours of terror as they think a hostage situation or a shooting spree is really taking place.
#11 NASA has just launched a "major" preparedness initiative for all NASA personnel. The following is an excerpt about this plan from NASA's own website....
A major initiative has been placed on Family/Personal Preparedness for all NASA personnel. The NASA Family/Personal Preparedness Program is designed to provide awareness, resources, and tools to the NASA Family (civil servants and contractors) to prepare for an emergency situation. The most important assets in the successful completion of NASA’s mission are our employees’ and their families. We are taking the steps to prepare our workforce, but it is your personal obligation to prepare yourself and your families for emergencies.
#12 Over the past week over 40 temporary "no fly zones" have been declared by the FAA. This is very highly unusual. Nobody seems to know exactly why this is happening.
So what do all of these things mean?
It would be nice if the mainstream media would examine some of these important issues more closely and do some honest reporting on them.
Perhaps you have an opinion on some of these issues. Feel free to share what you think by leaving a comment below....
Has anyone ever opened their eyes. Have they seen a flower? I have.. once. I live in a small box. When will I REALLY live? When will I look over the edge of the cliff to the ocean crashing into the rocks below. When will the blue consume me. A small man may know?
Dam Will, you stirred up some shit, but from my view your 100 percent correct, love it.
Glad to.
And thanks.
…”WE are responsible for our own actions and WE have already been given the keys to unlock our problems. They are called Rational Thought, Common Sense, Compassion, and Empathy…”
If “we” were/are already given the keys to unlock our problems, why haven’t “we” solved them yet? “We” are living in a time of profound knowledge that’s apparently completely unheard of since the beginning of man recording his history. Yet the majority of mankind, probably since the dawn of time, has lacked most, if not all, these elements.
I feel that people look towards the bible or God (the profound worshippers and the detractors) that it is the answer to everything and we will be bailed out sooner or later when things go south. I personally could never understand that point.
I believe that this world, this galaxy, this universe or whatever we’re calling it couldn’t have been created without a “creator” (that being God). But it is that “creator” that gave us these laws (natural, moral, etc…) and the freedom of choice as what to do with them. Yes I agree that freedom of choice also means having responsibility and accountability of one’s self. But I also feel that just because one holds himself/herself accountable doesn’t mean that there is no higher purpose or omniscient being.
Dear Will, I think you are an hypocrite speaking hatred against God without following your own false sense of morality. You claim that the keys given us are “Rational Thought, Common Sense, Compassion, and Empathy,” but in your actions you set up an attack upon yourself to look like the victim/hero by attacking what you saw in previous comments as a dominate idea on how to avoid any coming evils that many predict. Pete, and Aubry, and all you others continued to fight amongst yourselves while someone with a real concern presented their fears openly to you all and not one of you addressed her or applied any of the keys with her. Rational thought would have dictated that you stop fighting and help someone in need, because fighting wins no battles, but an open heart can win all battles. Common sense would have said, “if I just said that I was capable of good qualities and meant it, I would do it without even thinking twice again about and wasting my efforts on people who don’t agree. Compassion would demand of you that caring for this less fortunate one is far more important than caring only for myself with trying to prove my point (that I deny with my actions.) Empithy would blind you to anything but her needs.
If you are not ashamed, and all those that agreed with him or fought with him, then you really don’t care and the humility, righteous, and truth that you all claim from your own corners, are all hypocritically wrong and insincere at best.
Re: “Chinese Govt. buying up huge tracts of land all over the U.S.” Since the U.S. has been out of funds for several years now, where does everyone think the money came from that we’ve used to fight all these wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, et al? We borrowed it from the Chinese. What do you think China will do when they want their money back? They’ll take over parts of the U.S. as payment. We should think about moving to one of those other galaxies pinpointed by Hubble deep field.
The Bible does NOT teach that God torments men forever. I am a Christian and cringe when I here the “turn or burn” theology preached. It is an evil doctrine and has perhaps, more than any other teaching, turned more people away from the true good news that Christ is the Savior of all men and came to seek and save every lost sheep.
Despite how the world appears, God is very much involved to bring about His purpose to reconcile all things to Himself and become all in all. (Col. 1:20; 1 Cor 15:28)
For those interested, I have a free PDF book I will make available exposing the lie of “eternal” hell. Go to my website and email me and I will send it to you.

Will, you’ve encapsulated everything I believe but couldn’t explain as well. Bible thumpers preach to others because it makes THEM feel good about themselves. It gives them power. But it doesn’t address the real world one iota.
Any way you cook it, we are getting close to the point of having to bend over and kiss our asses goodbye – whether or not we expect to have anywhere else to go afterward!
I am in total agreement with Will. I do not think that anyone should have to believe in one thing or another to go through life and be an honest and respectful person. I don’t believe that anyone should shovel anything down anyone’s throat that doesn’t want to be informed. Hundreds of thousands of people have died doing so and to do so would mean we have not learned from our past. If god gave us the opportunity to choose then the choice is yours and yours alone to make. To say you are damned if you do not believe is the mind of a fool. I honestly do enjoy the idea of learning from others and hearing what they have to say about their religion and experiences that has come from it. I believe that knowledge is power and without it you will have no personal growth. Everyone knows that everyone has opinions and beliefs that some would and do die for. I for one do. I have had the opportunity to be apart of the military for this great wonderful country and been around enough death to know that for certain our body will end up at the same place one way or another. If you’re personal belief is a fire like hell or a place with big pillow like clouds surrounding you GOOD FOR YOU! Who am I to judge? I for one do not think that anyone’s Jesus, Buddha, ETC would condemn a soul to damnation for not going to church enough or saying a bad word… No matter what a book says.. We thank GOD have the right to choose… Who am I to say other wise?
I can say that the Arizona Fires is a big deal here in Arizona. The media is always talking about it all the time here and is taken seriously here in Az.
My own personal thoughts on the subject are, I am in a great time of my life where many fantastic things are happening and will continue to happen. Who cares if this is the third, forth or fifth age of man, the world has been around for a long, long time and it will be here for a long, long time to come. I hope we do finally admit there are aliens, I hope we find ancient ruins on Mars, I hope we get to go to space and colonize the stars (again) There is no use getting upset about something on a global level I can do nothing about. Just my .02 worth and the best part is I am a live to have such thoughts and feelings. We can debate the end of the world, scripture, and ancient signs of the times, until we are all blue in the face and it doesn’t change the simple fact that I know who I am at this moment in time, I know where I am at this moment in time and I dream of where I want to be at some future point in time. Life is good and that is my choice to feel that way.
This may make me sound like a complete tool, but it is my MOST ardent wish that we had F.T.L. travel capabilities. It think it was stephen hawking that said the only way the human species will survive, is if we can get off of this rock. That said, I still think we’ve got a LONG way to go before we’re ethically, morally, and technologically (that last one goes without saying) ready. I mean, what’s the use if we’re only going to rape and pillage some other planet and lifeforms?

Why does religion always take away from the truth? Do what you heart tells you to do not what other people tell you to do. GOD this GOD that. If GOD is everything than just let it be people. negative experiences are needed just as positive’s are. Its called Life on this Earth. Back up bible bangers and let people be who they want to be. After all GOD loves everybody right? So Relax they will figure that out on their own time. Ge Wizz.. What this report is trying to get across to you hard heads is the mind control over the US which is very real and until we break away from how we are supposed to feel and act like, we will slowly die like we are now. We don’t need to continue to cloud up the truth by stories about the past. Its OK we kill people and destroy Earth because the US government goes to church and they say its for the better good. OF WHO??? Get real and leave religious belief at the door for two seconds.
Funny how pissed the Christians get when confronted with logical thoughts. They believe god created the heavens & earth in just seven days but what he’s dragging out the destruction for what? Why not just blink his eyes & stop it all. I’m 100% behind science & logic on the way we evolved. It god created man in his image we would all be neanderthals or what ever missing link came before them. Evolution is my religion. I live my life by just trying to do what logic tells me is right. Don’t kill, steal, batter, rape… these things u just know not to do. Help your fellow man, this is just plain old logic. If u can’t determine right from wrong as an adult it is a mental illness, not the “devil” pushing them to do the wrong thing. Also, I’m sorry for those people who honestly believe they have no free will & its either god or Satan that controls their actions. Like a previous post said, I know I won’t be floating around In the clouds when I die, I’ll just be making the grass a little greener.
None of these things are new. Gold has been illegal to own for years so you knew that trading it would be close behind. The nuclear plant is no surprise level 2 alarms happen literally everyday and must be reported to the EPA, what is a surprise is there is no talk of the raw sewage plants in the area contaminating homes and waters. Christians trying to overthrow a democratic majority government, no surprise there either. The reason these things are not reported is because they’re not news. They don’t report on them because they know gullible Americans will overreact because they have no idea what they’re talking about.
Okay….. Well, firstly I’d like to say to everyone that human beings happen to be a programable species… Think about it for a sec– we’re ruled by our beliefs, feelings & emotions. And when one knows about mind control- BAM! Forget about it. Whomever is ” in charge of the bigger things who delegate certain activity tha lows for certain things to happen all over namely in USA are highly intelligent, lack any trace of humanity & of course power- .That said there is a very prestigious psychologist by the name of BF Skinner– look him up & his works. He basically said that anybody can be ” molded” into anything chosen upon them by the one who is mediating or performing the test so to speak. Moreover, if one were to live in a controlled environment then what else would the subject know- human being are very adaptable to change under the right circumstances and at the right pace. In addition to, look at the differences our country of the USA in contrast to other countries…. From education to health to lifestyle to stress levels & disease… Guys? We are all running on a wheel blindly unaware that we have men & women in lab coats trying to control us and mold us—slowly by taking our freedoms away. How is this achieve u ask? By breaking down ur health, ur humanity, and Godforbid ur spirit…. Don’t let them! Wake up to the haze; the illusion and delusional world we’re being made to live in. Why ate they doing this- why??? They wanna rule the world of course! And will do anything to get this accomplished. If you all do some real research you can all see how connected everything is and u can see their plan clear as day! Lol It’s kinda obvious, like all things are, when you remove yourself from the equation & step back and see the big picture! What to do?! Prepare for yourselves, families etc and SPREAD THE WORD! Devise a your own groups locally amongst yourselves where you can trade services and so therefore money is no longer necessary… BECOME A TEAM with your community! Start small and watch it grow like wildfire! Ppl ate hurting and down right now… Lift each other up– no cults plz! Lol Educate yourselves on the natural remedies found in nature and diff kinds of alternative methods of healing such as Rolfing, craniosacral massage, thai massage, etc. Acupuncture, Chinese medicine. Hey! It works! Lol Know thyself- inside and out! So that nobody has power over you to manipulate you into “believing” anything falsely about you, your emotions, feelings, body or thoughts… Watch movies and compate & contrast the similarities & the diff b/w them… There ate messages everwhere people! Ever ask why the heck the facination witth aliens, destruction smd spaceships in 75% tof the movies that have come out in the last year or so? Interestingly enough there were plenty movies on terrorism just before 911. They ate called subliminal messages and they are everywhere… Remember thawether ate trying to “mold” us to rake away the freedom we’ve had for so long… There is something called the”Darwin effect”— look it up plz. Basically, one island of monkeys took up a habit of a neighboring island of monkey without having contact with them.. Purely Bc of the mind… Great minds think alike remember! We all have great minds when we join to working with a team with each other and start working as one mind… That’s why some people who happen to be close friends, etc can think alike, finish each other sentences, etc. It’s called empathy, compassion, & love. If we have these qualities going on amongst ourselves- life can definitely change for the better. So lead by example I say and follow the ” golden rule” and we all will be straight! Lol.
In refernce to God and namely Jesus Christ– my Lord and Savior…. Something rather interesting that perhaps most non-believers including myself for many years failed to acknowledge is this: if Jesus was indeed just a regular ol’ prophet like the rest of the ones who have been mentioned throughout history then why does His name hold sooooo much freaking power?! Call on His name over any other name and see what happens! Or how about you reflect on this for a sec… We are all living in a dualistic reality meaning- black & white, make & female, happy & sad, good & bad… The good comes from where? Sorry it cannot just “exist” Bc there is a root to EVERYTHING! We’re also living in a linear world … Beginning and end, therefore there is a root to all things…. So I’m going to say God- all purely good things come from God and all bad things, come from who or what? The evil one of course… And this WHOLE scheme of what’s going on with the media, the world, everything is about your soul… Where it will end up at the end of your life…. If this seems to far off the deep end to be true– just look at the media, look at our Hollywood “entertainers”… Compare & contrast based on what is kind, humble, compassionate, loving, generous, and morally right. Which entertainers are pushed into stardom rapidly and how come some aren’t. It’s your soul guys… Point blank! I recently discovered that when one starts to really get to know God- the evil in the world is so apparent it’ll take your breath away… Every nook & cranny… Just remember tho God is not the God that the new age believers believe… Some basics are there but God is Holy- Jesus is Holy. Therefore reverence should be present which it isn’t Bc the majority believe that they are all on the same level as Our One and True Creator.. This denotes the feelings of pride, entitlement, all-knowingness, and “mightiness” Lacking true Christ-like qualities-example humility. Be weary of everything and learn the root of it all… The very first Christians were Christs’ Apostles and they each individually started spreading “the Good News” (Jesus Christ) all over. This religion stands to this day unchanged ESP when 1/2 of their own brethren decided to change things around ( Roman Catholics). So they split and now you have the Orthodox (Greek Orthodox, Antiochian Orthodox, etc) and the Catholics… The Orthodox haven’t changed any of their prayers, systems, sacraments, etc since the time of the Apostles… Have you ever asked yourself where does the root of my religion come from? Who started it? How long ago did it begin? If you ever have the pleasure to attend service at one and meet the rest of the congregation you just might note how genuinely wholesome they truly are ya might fly off your seats! Lol.
I’ll end on this very very important note: Forgiveness…
Disease, depression, and diff changes in mood and emotions are naturally exhibited and prodecided from a “lack” of forgiveness. When one forgives another, that same person feels refreshed, relieved, as tho a weight has been lifted. Lack of forgiveness manifest in diff ways on the body– ur muscles, tissue and organs WILL record it and retai. It as memory until you LET IT GO! So with this said…. We “sin” everyday, all day long w/o fail Bc of the first fall of man- a long time ago I’ll say. Lol Now, the word ” sin” just means “missing the mark”. We aimed to hit the mark but we missed it and keep missing that mark but of our weakness, etc. Asking Jesus Christ for true genuine forgiveness is the ONLY way for true inner peace and fulfillment…We won’t be able to co nect to God if we are fuuuulllll of baggage… We gotta come to Him clean and this is through his son Jesus. Think of God as space- limitless and ever expanding and Jesus as the spacecraft. The only way up is to get on the spacecraft and have faith that the spacecraft will take you to space (God) and bring you safely back down when your voyage is done. Allowing you to tell the world the amazing wonders and awe-inspiring experience of being up in space (connected to God through His Son) Interestingly enough, both experiences will leave a person more humbled Bc the grand realization occurs rather quickly the closer one gets to God and the closer one travels through the atomosphere and into space that we each are minuscule in comparison to the the big picture…. And that big stoic “me, me, me,” syndrome quickly starts to disappear when the truth is surrounding your very existence……. Forgiveness for all our sins as a planet will save our species & our planet Bc God made us and we have the free will to break us if we don’t ask Him to intervene and save us….. God bless you all:)
How interesting how all the christians are coming out telling non believers that they are right and you are wrong. everyone has their own belief/disbelief. WHO KNOWS WHAT THE TRUTH IS!!! I wasn’t there and neither were any of you. In the end I am the only one responsible for my destiny and I’m not about to believe in anything just because someone thinks I should. After all … you may be wrong too. All we have is hearsay from the past.
Hey I can make a bible just give me some shrooms, a bunch of paper, a bag of chips, and a pencil, and of course some cash for the time spent. Lol jk….. But yea how do you know the bible wasn’t changed by government or even religion??? You would get burned alive before for beliving in any other thing, that’s how they try and convert you fear….legalizing drugs, or atleast marijuana, which by the way has never killed anyone and it doesn’t judge you either like god does, which you roughy in school not o judge .
Yeah, I can’t WAIT till they legalize the herbals. SO much money saved. Although, it would probably take me 4 weeks to get to the point in my arguments as opposed to the lightning quick 2 weeks it takes me now.
I would like to tie up my initial comment about the moon and the stars and the galaxies and shit and how small we are by comparison. Sadly, it has taken me about 2 weeks to remember my point….. We as a species are subject to the laws of nature. Regardless of god or creed. Point: as we continue to multiply at a geometric rate, we are consuming more and more resources. Resources that are finite. And in the process of doing so, we pollute, destroy, and defile. As this process continues at an increasing rate, we destroy the habitats and resources of other forms of life on this planet. Thereby stressing those organisms to the point of extinction. As the varying forms of life on this planet are eliminated, we decrease biodiversity. Biodiversity which has, up to this point, ensured the continuance of life on this planet. As an example, if you have 10,000 forms of life in a given habitat that exist “happily” along side each other and you introduce a substantial change in their environment, by the Darwinian law of survival of the fittest, some of those organisms will perish and become extinct, while others will change, adapt (evolve), and flourish. If that number were to be reduced to lets say 10, the number of organisms that can change and adapt to those shifting environmental conditions is thereby depleted. Simple math. Regardless of religion, creed, sex, race, everyone (hopefully) agrees that 2 + 2 = 4. With this depletion of life forms on this planet, life’s ability to overcome these stresses is therefore weakened. As we virally consume this world and shit out ideology an dogma, we are killing this world and with it, ourselves. We like to sound all high and mighty by saying “We’re gonna save the whales!” Not to be flippant, but we ARE the whales. (I know, I know, that sounds REALLY lame, BUT I feel it is the truth.) THIS is what I mean when I say that we need to take our heads out of the echo chamber of our collective asses, and start taking this extinction thing MUCH more seriously. Everything from environmentalism to planning birth rates. I’m sorry, but I feel that the days of wanton screwing and babymaking (actually scratch the screwing, let’s focus on the babymaking instead,) I think that one of the MOST damning passages in any religion, is a theological sanction to “go forth and multiply.” I’m not sure that the ability to procreate should be an inherent human right. It’s one thing if the resources are there to support such an approach, but if they’re not? Well then, it’s only a matter of time till that wicked little 2 + 2 = 4 turns around to bite us in the ass. Yup. ANOTHER FRIEND OF ISHMAEL. Daniel Quinn’s Ishmael. Wonderful book.
Once again, for clarity, by “resources” I mean biodiversity.
I mean, dammit they’re now saying African lions are on the fast track towards extinction. LIONS, FOR ******* SAKE!
It just gets me SO frustrated. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
Seems like a lot of the same old stuff to me. Call doom and gloom or end of days all you want, the fact is that the world has been like this for as long as there’s been a human race. The main difference is that instead of only knowing what’s happening in your local area, now we hear about the whole world. It’s more info than we need, so it triggers our panic, especially since we only hear about the bad stuff. Don’t panic people, it’s business as usual…
I agree with the “Don’t Panic” part. In the style of Douglas Adams, not panicking is the way to be. However, this is not merely business as usual. For over 2000 years the elite families have run the world, controlled the banks, fabricated wars, etc. -BUT- now we have nuclear weapons in the mix. That is not something to just gloss over. They are devastatingly destructive and can wipe out miles and miles of land with one fell swoop. Definitely, don’t panic. Prepare mentally, physically, and emotionally for the destruction that will eventually be brought down on this planet. Jim Morrison said it best when he said “nobody here gets out alive,” so panicking is unnecessary, but turning a blind eye to what is going on behind the scenes is not. Research what is happening now. Look up the UN’s Agenda 21, look into the Bilderberg Group. Perhaps you know of these things, but if not, you should educate yourself. All these so called “business as usual” examples are culminating to one big thing… One big thing that is almost withing their reach. Don’t ignore it. It is our duty to take our planet back. Educate and prepare.
I rarely watch mass media and haven’t since the mid nineties. This country lost its freedom when the tax system was installed almost a hundred years ago. A wise king once pointed out that citizens do not pay taxes but only those conquered by the taxing bodies. We are not citizens of the U.S. but we are subjects.
Right on… if you look it up, you really aren’t legally obligated to pay income taxes. I have a few friends who went out on a limb and did it. All you have to do is ask the Govt to show you the law that requires payment of income tax. There isn’t one. So you cannot be held legally accountable for not doing something that isn’t enforced by law. You may know this already, but it doesn’t hurt to share on the board with others who may not know this.
Were these individuals either imprisoned for tax evasion or audited and their wages garnished? If not, sign me the ****** up for doing this too!
Sorry for the foul language. I’ll no longer post expletives.
No problem Will – I just try to keep the comments at a level where most kids can read them
Michael
Nope… there is no legal obligation to pay income tax if you are a citizen living in the US. I’m not quite sure of all the logistics of how they went about freeing themselves from it. But I do know that they run a cleaning service which charters out contracts from different businesses. They refused to fill out W-9 forms for a bank, and the bank then refused to pay them. They won a lawsuit and still don’t pay taxes. Watch a documentary that is available online called “Money Masters.” It is on Google video I know. It explains how all that is going on has been fabricated and slowly set in place by some of the richest and most powerful people for the past 2000 years. It goes into the income tax system, and the legality of the Fed. Once you know your rights, no one can make you pay income tax. Just ask to see a law, if they can produce one, go ahead and pay. If they cannot, tell them to shove their audit where the sun don’t shine.
Shine on, Will.
Why would mainstream media report “#4 Members of Congress continue to mention Christians as a threat to national security”? In fact it’s Christian militants, not Christians, that are the subject under discussion. Very lame…
don’t any of you even know how to spell the word
“BELIEVE”?
Ignorance is bliss I guess.
Is God so powerful He can make it so I never existed?
Just wait for the meteor that will fall fromt he sky and hit you all square on the forehead. The world has been “going to hell” for millions of years. Get over it and love one another. Bad shit happens all the time. I say let the good times roll!
your an idiot
I’ve gotta say, Will has had a series of very well reasoned and completely on point answers. Bravo!
What boggles my mind is that so many responders simply glaze over and start spouting words written by people in multiple contexts as a way to utterly and completely discount the marvels of our actual universe and life. Amazing levels of absolutely willful blindness.
People (if we survive) will look back on this time and do exactly as we do regarding the beliefs of more primitive societies. Whereas we chuckle over anyone actually believing a giant turtle use the mud on their back to build the earth and snort at the idea of a bunch of Olympic gods cavorting with dirty sheepherders, the people of the future will look back and say, “They actually believed that? Were they stupid?”
Oh..and Max, as for Laws…that isn’t like your judicial law and you’re showing a shocking level of ignorance. Scientific law isn’t even called by that same actual notion everywhere. English wasn’t even a language then. I’m hoping you’re embarrassed about such a comment by now and worried for you if not.
Has anyone even considered other options? Has anyone even read one chapter of the Quran? How about another religious text, before simply saying that the Bible is the final word? Do you know that we have the “old Testament”, the “new Testament”. We now have the “Last Testament”, which happens to be The Quran. These are the direct Verses from The God of Abraham, The God of Moses, The God of Jesus, and many more, including The God of Muhammed.
Peace.
religion is for fools.
To those individuals who believe that I’m preaching all doom, gloom, and ecological apocalypse….. I feel your response to my earlier post about the dwindling variance in biodiversity is a perfect example of the homocentricity that I’ve mentioned in earlier posts. When I mentioned that the African lion is being fast tracked to the endangered species list, it would seem that you feel that I’m being alarmist and overly pessimistic as to the significance of this and our role as humans in it’s occurrence. @Michelle: you stated in one of your brilliant previous posts about religion that you have issues with anyone (even Jesus) bearing any responsibility or consequence for your actions. If we are to assume that pretty much every other life form on this planet has not been gifted the same kind of self awareness and consciousness as we have so graciously been endowed, then I think it’s safe to ascribe (for the sake of this argument) a certain kind of innocence/ignorance to those said life forms. All they’re trying to do is survive with the tools and means that have been given to them either through the process of evolution or divine accord. Your choice. Since we are the ONLY species on the planet that has the ability to significantly alter it’s environment to it’s own needs/wants, don’t we all bear some responsibility for what’s happening to them? I understand that in some of these instances where people find themselves having to choose between themselves living and a lion (read ANY other life form) dying, they’re going to opt for self preservation. I take no issue with this. If I was faced with the same choice, rest assured I’d be having lion burgers for dinner. BUT, to me, your response is a perfect example of sacrificing innocence at the altar of hubris. Do you understand that once a species goes extinct, it is extinct? Meaning that something that has taken millions of years to evolve is no longer? If you’re like me, and believe that this universe is somewhat of a combination of serendipity, chance, and randomness, then those things that we find beautiful, awe inspiring and breath taking AND conversely mundane, every day and ubiquitous, are that much more beautiful and breath taking because they randomly happened. And we are lucky enough to appreciate and exist along side them. My point is that what’s happening to these organisms is being done in your and my name. Not directly, but as a species. We’re saying: “oh well, it’s JUST another lion or spotted owl or whatever.” I believe THIS is why we’re headed to a messy, painful end. We do not inherently respect other life forms or the systems within which they (and we) exist. We think that we’re smart enough to circumvent those rules simply because we have opposable thumbs and can form rational thought and culture. Once again, if the last lion on earth was getting ready to eat my kid, I’m going to do whatever I can to save my kid. Even at the lion’s expense. Sorry, PETA. @the other impending environmental disaster naysayers: look at the website that you are blogging an participating on. I assume most of you are here because you don’t believe that the information you are getting from your other media outlets is balanced and fair. I would agree with you most points. But our inability to empirically verify factual information (in almost ANY sense) doesn’t mean that EVERY shred of information we come across is immediately false and riddled with lies. Which brings me to another hot button issue: global warming. (go ahead and groan, but PLEASE keep on reading. If for no other reason other than to disagree with me and state your point in future comments!) As it would seem that there are a lot of individuals that post and comment on this website that would rightfully pride themselves as decent Christians, I would pose this statement/question to you with a HUGE disclaimer. PLEASE do not take offense to what I’m about to ask/say. I mean no harm. You as a religious group believe in an omniscient being for which there is no empirical reproducible evidence. There is no evidence that we as a species, through experiments which maintain the exact same results time after time, that we can deduce would show with certainty that a conscious being created and watches over us. Hence, faith and spiritual hope. And all the beauties that that entails. My point is this: almost every legitimate scientific institution and community on this planet has agreed that we ARE having a deleterious effect on this planet’s atmosphere, ecology, and environmental systems. How can you NOT be concerned with our own future and every other living thing’s future as well? I mean, you’re willing to have faith in something unprovable, what about the things we’re finding out concerning the environment? I understand that mankind is inherently falliable, but that doesn’t mean that every natural law we deduce is false. If that were the case, we wouldn’t have things like the combustion engine and airplanes and stuff. I feel that if there is indeed an omniscient, conscious god, he speaks thru all of us with everything we say. I also feel that he has given the cats their fur, the dogs their bark, and mankind the ability to think, wonder, and deduce. To recoil and refuse ANY knowledge is tantamount to sin.
Oh, these comments have done nothing but make me sad. The fact that people need to be told that theft, killing, and so on are wrong. As a humanist these things are just obvious as they are anti-humanity. Do you really need guidance from a higher being to understand that these things are wrong? Do you have to be threatened with hell to just be a good person? Are you not capable of making these simple distinctions on right and wrong yourself? Seriously, today I am embarrassed and scared. The embarrassment is the same feeling I get when watching a TV show where the protagonist is doing something strange…and I’m scared because I know there are people in power who thing the same way, who actually believe it is correct to base the values and laws of an entire society on something that can not be proven to exist. This was an amazing article that was basically ruined by the non-secular posts. Shameful.
Since much of the discussion about this article on media ethics has been some sort of debate about religion, I add this classic: George Carlin – Religion is bullshit.
yeah!
#6 is a misconception, and it most likely comes from a Zero Hedge article. Zero Hedge has since clarified the situation, and it only affects a small number of traders. The act even specifically mentions, “leveraged positions”.
Although disconcerting, don’t be fooled by the “Over the counter” wording. This does *NOT* apply to physical metals.
@ Steve Amen! LOL
Not sure who wrote this, but I like how it sums it up…..
“I like it that Death remains our ultimate mystery, and whether it is an opening door, ultimate peace, or nothingness, no one can say for sure. Humankind gets cocky, and it pays to remember that in the end, we know nothing, we own nothing, and we can only choose, as best as we can, between right and wrong, and hope that what we gave back was, overall, as much as we could.”
In the last days, all of these things will come to pass. Find yourself a sanctuary, preferably somewhere in the mountains, where you can stash a little dry food, can goods,and some fresh water source. December 2012 is looming. Get away from the coastlines, danger. If you live near any of the nuclear reactors, move, sell, or just give your shit away. When you are dying from nuclear poison it will be too late.
The prophets have sent their warnings. Earth mother is fed up, and retaliating. The world is no longer a safe place.
May God be with us all. Don’t wait till its too late!!!
Yes, people have to act to take better care of our planet, but there is no reason to panic and cause chaos which will only cause problems. Ironically crazy groups will do radical things which will inturn cause their warnings to become true. Also Brenda, you don’t need to believe in ancient mythological stories (created by unintelligent people of the bronze age) to help you get through life in the 21st century.
Those ‘unintelligent’ bronze age peoples you speak of are not only some of the best astronomers with world has ever seen (re: no telescopes) but also some of the worlds best builders of monuments we still cannot reproduce today.
IMHO, your attitude towards the ancients is why people today are so jaded. We have divided ourselves from reality: WE ARE ANIMALS. We are not the uber-species that we think and hold ourselves to be. A Sperm Whale has the largest brain of all mammals – brain size is allegedly linked to intelligence.
We just don’t know. But they did.
Not necessarily just brain size. Surface area, really.
Nice pseudo-history pwn, btw. Not too many people realize the pioneering that had to occur before the appropriate tools were invented.
But I disagree- As much as I hate to admit it, we may be “uber” specimens. Terrible and terrestrially destructive, but “ubers” nonetheless.
Most of the people I interact with on a daily basis aren’t very “uber”. They’re basically monkeys that wear shoes and have learned how to poop indoors.
Nice come back indeed…
It’s a shame when the blind try to lead the blind… they don’t get anywhere…
Not to mention all the previous ice ages and global warmings our species has survived that your ancients tried to write out of history.
Bob, “unintelligent people of the bronze age” is like saying pyramids precisely built and located along astrological alignments is from your view point, “a throw of the dice.” And they claim mind control and conditioning is conspiracy theory.
I don’t think fleeing to a mountain with food will be of much value, but fleeing to our Lord and Savour Jesus Crist would be.
Agreed.
LOL!!!
Amen! Jesus is coming and will finally exercise his authority as King! I can hardly wait for the day.
It will do us no good to store our hope in anything but Him.
Wow, you’re crazy. You probably believe in planet x Nibiru, reptilian people under the earth’s crust, shapeshifters, grey aliens among us, solar planet alignment causing trouple, etc etc
seriously you need to stop using the internet for information.
I LIKE TO KNOW JUST WHO WILL VOTE FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA
the mainstream media has become alost party controlled the fox network claims to be bias but they only tell storys leaning toward the conservatives and same on the other side some only tell story from the democrat side what ever happened to the news having integrity and reporting the facts no matter what particlular party it effected and not warning people that live and work near the 2 almost flooded nuclear power plants and for that matter when will we start feling the effects of fukishimo’s disaster as fallout will be global as in chernobyl acid rain polluted ocean and sick and dying people wtf americans wake the hell up and take our country back….thnx
#12 I believe that this has to do with Disclosure of celestial beings on Earth. This would have a mass awakening rippling effect on humanity as a whole not to mention bring technologicial advancements that could greatly assist our planet in this cleansing process she is enduring and the Dark Ones as some call them don’t want that. They have grown addicted to their power and so they resist the natural flow of our progression. I think that the air spaces are being monitored for activity, many people have been talking about sightings all around and it feels like were on the precipice of some great change and shift in world view so its fitting. Anywho thats my 2 and a half cents
enjoy your day.
i so totally agree…scary but cool!!
I myself do not presume to know anything about anything. I try as hard as I can to absorb everything and experience everything that I meet on my path through this life.
When I look up at the stars, it is with a sense of wonder and curiosity; that in all that infinite blackness, this little world and its little denizens exist, in dazzling variety and vibrancy. Life is a miracle, and it is in no way insignificant. Regardless of how it came about, life is endlessly fascinating. There exists too much argument and animosity over a debate that should not be a debate. There can be no debate when arguing unquantifiable uncertainties, such as the existence or non-existence of a supreme entity. Such discourse is folly.
Even considering the entire vastness of space, take a moment to reflect on the vastness of your own universe, the infinitely complex series of realities and layers of thought and electrical activity that is your own consciousness. Then consider the tiny, barely-studied and hardly understood building blocks of all it all: subatomic particles. When you get down to that level, we are all made of mostly empty space, and yet we think, we feel, we eat, we laugh, we make music, we destroy, we kill, we create art…
We can only move forward as a species when we learn how to see beyond outer extremities to the beating heart of consciousness within us all.
Why is not the question, How is not the question. There is no question; only the pursuit of Love. Love brings the gifts of knowledge and truth, however: Love is the most elusive of all the elements in the universe, only choosing to bless a special few, and then only for short bursts before it evaporates with little trace.
It is my belief that Love, does not originate within the confines of a conscious mind, it must be allowed to come in. Love flourishes in conscious beings; it is the only place it can exist happily so to speak, but first the mind must be made a suitable, attractive habitat. This includes the body, which is the support vessel of the mind and consciousness. Love will never be able to stay long in an unhealthy, uncared for body.
My purpose in this life is the pursuit of Love, and so should yours and all of humanity’s be. Though all emotions exist only as abstract concepts seemingly experienced only by those organisms that can be self-aware, Love appears to be the one path towards progress and ascension unto a higher plane of existence.
Thank you for that beautiful idea so eloquently stated.
Thank you for the post and the wisdom provided.
Too many people race through life distracted by material goods or the mindless drivel produced as entertainment. Consciousness is a mysterious gift that should be explored not squandered.
Hot darn. Right on the munney. Awesome insight and articulation.
The best and most worthwhile statment said here today. God Bless Sir.
OK, That_guy, so tell me what is love. How do I know I love?
Was that a Plato quote???
“This I know – that I know nothing.”
I agree though… The only way our species can survive is by, and through love.
We’re screwed…
@That_guy – You’re the first person I’ve heard articulate the same positions/beliefs I’ve held for a few years now. Bravo!!
Please accept my gratitude for doing such a fine job of encapsulating all of that so succinctly.It would be great and humbling to compare notes: sonic_sunrise at yahoo.
how can you claim to know nothing and yet offer a prescription for how we all “should” live?
Because true wisdom is only possible through humility or the admittance that one knows very little. In contrast try to teach anything to someone who believes they know everything. You can’t, it is impossible. This appears to be contradictory through a cursory or shallow understanding but it is not it is just one of many paradoxes common to human existence.
WTF does Obama have to do with cracks in the ground, Eugene? Damn you must be from North Carolina or something. All of you religious freaks are going to wait for the end of the world while the rest of us go about our happy lives warming up the earth…
Neo, you must be one of those Obamacon’s that still believes in the HOAX of global warming. With your elitist/snobish east coast attitude, I bet you live in New York City!!! Would not live there if you paid me a million dollars! Neo, I will pray for you, you need Jesus real bad!
I don’t think that Neo would find it very comforting that you will talk to your ceiling and mention him. Join the rest of the civilized societies of the world as we move away from beliving in ancient mythological fairy tales. We know so much more about the world now that we’ve moved beyond needing the mental crutch of religion to make us feel better. Embrace the awesome world for what it really is … not some silly fairy tale as believeable as Santa Claus.
So apparently, the inability to gather evidence can prove something now? Until we can prove God doesn’t or does exist, please keep your “fairytail/myth” nonsense to yourself. There was nothing here to invite such hate rhetoric.
Neo, one can be religious and intelligent. please be more specific when you say “religious freaks”. Maybe “bigots”?
ClayMobile- Neo’s location isn’t so much a factor for his beliefs. ($5 says he’s really from california) One can be born and raised from New York and not be elitist/snobbish. Same thing goes for the correlation between who’s in the president’s spot and earth’s “natural” occurances. Which is Neo’s point (immature as it may have been put).
Actually there is a massive amount of evidence that God exists
Michael
Michael, there is absolutely no evidence for the existence of any God.
You must not have heard. Here is a good place to get started….
http://evidenceforchristianity.blogspot.com/
Michael is right I’m afraid, and many times when people here someone say that there is evidence of a god, they assume they are referring to the common conception of god that many religous people believe in (god sharing the image of man etc.). However, there is evidence of God as a force that goes beyond the natural laws of physics and such. Take the big bang for example. Most scientists agree that the big bang was caused by a “random event.” This is hard for many people to wrap their heads around because physics state that all motion is caused by previous motion (this idea is being argued through the experimental science of Quantum Physics but that is a whole other confusing matter). Essentially, Scientists agree that the big bang defied the laws of physics, because it was caused by a random event without any prior cause. In this way, God can be understood as the Prime Mover: the original cause of all motion in the universe. After all it hard to start somewhere. Most scientists believe in this random start to motion, and (whetehr or not they know it) this means that many scientists believe in the supernatural ( which means actions and events that go beyond the laws of nature). Once you believe in the “supernatural” it isn’t much of a stretch to believe in “God”.
Ben what if the big bang was caused by a prior big crunch and the universe is cyclical? Not that that is an answer to the prime mover question, nevertheless, it makes much more logical sense than the big bang from nothing theory and due to Penrose’s discoveries it is beginning to come into fashion.
Neo – leave NC outta this. If you watched the election you would know that NC voted FOR Obama. Not everyone that lives here is a redneck and you just make yourself look more ignorant as the people you are trying to criticize when you say things like that…
Hey hey hey….. Everybody just CHILL OUT. What, are we in new jersey or something?
hey wil, from nj and am CHILL. god does exist, extraterrestrials exist, there’s always a cover up and the guy from new york probably is from california
Lol.
#12 Planned firework displays. To wit, Disney, Canaveral etc.
Thank you for some truth in reporting! LOVE is the key to our survival. We need to realize that just about everything we’ve been taught is convoluted & so untrue. We’ve been treated like children, not getting the real truths. But we all know something’s up…wrong. Look for Truth.Be willing to Listen. Investigate for yourselves instead of swallowing info without thinking about it. Does it resonate Truth in your inner self (your gut)? If not, then discard it. Trust your OWN instincts. It’s time to let go of all Fear, and think in terms of Love for all races, all planets.
If you truly want to find answers, check out Project Camelot.com, Project Camelot.com, especially Alex Collier interviews. Listen intently & with courage. Be willing to talk with others about these things. But watch everything that is being “disclosed” before you judge. There are many parts of the puzzle, we all have pieces to offer. As doom & gloom is being suggested, there are also wondrous possibilities for us if we listen with open hearts & minds looking for a better way to exist. My Love & prayers for all of you..my brothers & sisters. If you need to talk,I will listen…
Cherokeestar333
U speak positive words of love, life, n existence.
Eye so <3 ur beautiful energy.
Hey, What’s the matter with New Jersey? I live in New Jersey.
Another issue that could be #13 is Monsanto bio-genetically engineered seeds. I am an organic gardener,trying to live close to the earth,share my foods with neighbors. Yet there are others who are losing their farms,their livestock because they agreed to grow sterile seeds that won’t produce crops without certain sprays sold by Monsanto. Why have we let this happen? Laziness, apathy,lost in TV, sports, dancing with the stars. It’s time that each of us start to make a difference, by WAKING UP to what’s around us. If it hurts You, it hurts Me.
If it hurts the farmers, the Japanese, the Chinese, the Iraqis,the people in Mississipi or Michigan, it also hurts you & me. We need to start thinking as One Family. Thank You All.
I think #9 is the big problem, Somebody better do something about that little backward nation, before they do something real stupid that leads to the senseless deaths of millions of innocent people.
For those who mock religion and people who believe in God…you are the same people who laughed and mocked Noah as he built a huge boat in the middle of nowhere then found yourselves pounding on the doors to get in when the floods came.Well my unbelieving friends it’s starting to rain again.The more man moves away from God and progresses through unnatural means the more nature will call out for vengence upon mankind.It’s all been foretold and it’s starting to begin.The time of Gods Mercy is ending and His Chastisement is about to come down,this is not going to be the end of the world…but the end of evils rein.The good with the bad shall be taken,,but only God loving and God fearing people shall remain to rebuild whats left.Google 3 days of darkness if you want to know more.But for you unbelievers there will come first a day where God shall make Himself known to all in the world at the same time..a mini judgement and you will see the state of your soul as God sees it.You will still have the free will to reject Him..and there will be many.Obama is not the blame for things happening,,rather he and his administration are just helping speed up the process.However we are all to blame and will be held accountable..we can choose to follow and obey or choose to turn away and sin…it’s a black and white choice with no room for grey.Whats it going to be?
Hmmm, sounds like the rapture that was supposed to happen a few months ago, how did that work out for you…? You have the right to believe whatever the hell you want, that’s certainly your right. Just please STOP trying to impose your beliefs on others, nobody wants to hear it.
…
First off, the majority of Christians, or people who claim to be Christians, thought that whole entire thing was totally bs.
Second, John can say whatever the hell he wants. You don’t have to agree with it, and you don’t have to listen to him, but him saying what he believes on a message board is a lot different from imposing (or forcing) his beliefs on others.
JS.
yeah that whole boat thing
that didn’t actually happen you know
most stuff in the bible didn’t XD
We are not paying attention to our Creator and He has spoken……..and until we listen, there will be continuing chaos. we are witnessing it now…and will be until we change for the better in how we treat each other and HIS world.
Forbiden fly zones are happening all over the globe.
Sink holes are happening all over the globe.
Huge cracks on the Earth Crust are happening all over the globe.
Very strong earthquakes are happening all over the globe.
Global warming are happening all over the Solar system.
IS THERE A RELATION BETWEEN ALL THESE
HAPPENINGS?
Just think about it…
Corynne,
We’ve known bout celestial beings for thousands of years — they’re called angels
cool stories, well thought and put together. too bad that many of your readers seem to need profesional help, with therapy and lots of pills.
For those to have ears let them hear – that times they are a changin’! The Lord is taking steps to adjust nature so that we do not destroy ourselves on this planet. His great Love for his creation is forcing him to take actions! All of the plans of the wicked will soon be brought to naught and they will be buried in their own sins in the fires of Hell. Unfortunately many, many will suffer in the meantime due to sin and it is time to repent and turn back to God. Get back to your roots!
Those trying to understand the meaning of love, how to find it, check http://www.holylove.org
Agreed john! The unbelievers with their superior “intellects” and haughty insults to God will be shocked. Whether the illumination, warning, 3 days of darkness, etc.,come before or after the prophesied chastisments, the world will have an era of peace. For anyone remotely interested in religion or for those regular practitioners, I reccomend that you look up http://www.fatima.org for some practical truth that will allow you to sort out he incredible mess we are living through today. For the scorners and atheists, as well as poor sinners the Fatima message says that, “many souls go to hell because they have no one to pray and make sacrifices for them.” It is up to believers to pray for all the anonymous unbelievers who are in the grip of the devil, who continuingly attacks us all. For those who persist in ridiculing the sacred only one biblical passage is necessary: “And they were marrying and giving in marriage (partying) right up to the day that Noah entered the ark.” Pray of the world
JD.
Shut up. I’ve been listening to you religious people go nuts for longer than many of you have been alive. Every damn Sunday, every week, every month, and every year. “OHHHH the end is nigh!!!” “Ohhhh you’ll be sorry!!”
Fine. All of us non-believers will be sorry. Rest assured, all of us are more sick and tired of your preaching than we are of your baseless threats.
I’m sure I speak for all non-believers. Shut up. Please. Your threats are as meaningless as they are irritating.
Yaaaaaaaaaay!
You gotta love how someone who constructs a well-formulated, well-researched argument that some historical event may not have went down exactly as the “mainstream” purports it to have gets labeled a “nut”, yet, people can drone on for hours about the invisible man in the sky, “prophesied chastisments”, “the grip of the devil” and other such bullshit and not a single ****** is given.
thank you! I was raised in a catholic family and was tried to be brainwashed but I decided to actually think about what i believed in and it made no ****ing sense at all, so now ive accepted atheism and never been more happy and sure of my beliefs. i know that anyone who seriously considers atheism will never go back because it makes so much sense once you arent talking to an invisible man in the sky. religious people dont understand how not worried we all are about their threats.
They are just afraid that when they die its over and theres nothing they can do about it
eternal dreamless sleep, doesn’t sound too bad to me
It says (in your links) that those planes have been diverted for air shows or hazards…hazards being the fire in Arizona. Look at them. They’re all near the fire area. The notices themselves say the don’t want to interfere with firefighters.
It is not the end of the world, but an end to an evil age. The Blessed Virgin Mary (the new Eve) is appearing all over the world with solar miracles happening in the sky and statues crying tears and tears of blood. Some of these have been approved by the Catholic Church (the church history proves Christ founded) and she is saying an evil time is upon us where we will see natural and man-made disasters increase up to a great chastisment, BUT NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. All those who make fun of those who fear God will be truly sorry if they don’t repent. Repent and change your lives while there is still time. (I first read about the BVM prophecies(back in the early 80′s) before all that is happening now was going on with disasters and I have watched everything slowly heat up.
Sorry, in the Bible God says He will share his glory with no man. Look at how the pope is treated.
In regards to #10, students are not going “through hours of terror as they think a hostage situation or a shooting spree is really taking place.” Lockdown drills, not “loose shooter drills” are common and necessary nowadays. Students are aware as stressed out during these drills as they are during a fire drill, that is, barely at all. This bit of uncovered news is as sensationalist as the stuff I see on FOX news. Makes me wonder how enhanced the rest of the information here is.
What we need is… A giant bug zapper for the religous nuts. A huge light you all run to,and when you get there zap end of an evil era. Jefferson Franklin Einstien Frued Galileo Lincoln on and on and on. The most highly regaured minds in history have refuted “The Good Word”. You are sheep
I’m so down, when do we start building it…?
Einstein and Galileo refuted “The Good Word”? Really? I admit I am not sure even what “The Good Word” refers to. Regardless, I highly doubt either mind put any effort into refuting such a thing.
But more importantly, Freud and Lincoln make up 1/3 of the ‘most highly regaured[SIC] minds in history’? Seriously?
I am astounded at your intellectual acumen, I will not lie, in much the same way I am astonished at Justin Beiber’s machismo.
You do realize that most of the scary, the end is near people are trolling in the deep, yes?
That said, you’re buying into the media and propaganda that’s telling you religion is crazy, loony, whatever.
You’re just as much, if not more, of a “sheep” as them.
