the lyin' the witch and the boardroom

 I have suggested that the entirety of what we call science is based on the principle of truth as enunciated by believers in God, more specifically on the commandment attributed by the Hebrews to God himself in which he ordains: "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour..."

Without the primacy of truth, there can be no science.

The atheist Richard Dawkins has now attempted to rebut this critique in his arguments.

He answers it by asserting that the principle of truth is instinctual and directed by evolution.

He postulates that any evolving apes or humans or whatever, who decided to jump off cliffs believing they could fly, would die out.

He sees the survivors as having an evolved predilection for truth.

I would try to answer this thusly.

We see lots of people who use lies as a means of survival, as a means of accumulating money, or as a means of worshipping evil or as a means of pleasure.

It is an observable fact that liars do not routinely jump off cliffs.

The notion of the primacy of truth as an evolved characteristic fails here.

If as Mr Dawkins asserts the notion of truth achieves primacy through evolutionary means and as he believes the concept of atheism is itself a fundamental truth, then we would expect to find an example in human history of an advanced atheistic civilisation naturally evolving, prevailing and triumphing over its supposedly delusional religious competitors with great social, cultural, scientific and even spiritual accomplishments to its name.

There is not even one.

We would expect great music, literature, learning, exploration, and art, to flow from such a culture.

It doesn't happen.

It never happened.

It's never going to happen.

Not even once.

Where can we look for direct insight into the effects on organisms of atheism as a guiding principle?

The French gave it a short whirl in the 18th century during a period which they still call The Terror. As with later impositions of atheism on societies, the French didn't really choose the Terror. The Terror chose them. A violent atheistic revolution was followed by a permanency of violence in the culture.

The first somewhat durable widespread atheistic attempts to construct a civilisation occurred over the last hundred years mainly at the hands of Marxian communists in Soviet Russia, and their proxies worldwide to wit Maoist China, Pol Pot's Cambodia, Ho Chi Minh's Vietnam, Castro's Cuba, and various Russian communist sponsored Statelets in Africa including Ethiopia, Somalia, Zimbabwe, Angola, Namibia, Mozambique and others, some of which remain to this day mired in command control conflict theory communist atheism.

Curiously, and again I suggest observably, in countries where those denying the existence of God took over, hell followed with them.

In each of the communist cases the advocates of atheism murdered their way to power while chanting the mantra: "Religion is the opium of the people."

And then they just kept on killing.

I would suggest that Hitlerite Germany was also an atheistic project in which truth, evolved or unevolved, did not have any visible primacy in the conduct of persons or government or indeed scientists.

I would further suggest that the current prevalence of atheism in Western ruling pseudo elites has led to a similar charnel house of institutionalised murders via abortion, euthanasia and assisted suicide, precisely the same level of predictable barbarities under different guises as has defined the human experience of all previous known attempts to incept atheism as a civilisational principle.

In each of the atheisms I have cited, (Soviet, Nazi and Western pseudo elite) atheism seems to be a cover for something specifically malevolent, something satanic. by which I mean Satan.

The primacy of truth, even in an evolved sense, is absent in every case.

I would note that in the contemporary human experience, where the profit motive is present, say in the development of pharmaceutical products, there has been no shortage of supposedly highly evolved scientists willing to falsify data at every level.

I think Mr Dawkins contention that he has shown that truth is an evolved characteristic naturally occurring the sciences and occurring in the organism through evolutionary processes without the action of a Deity, and that the standard of truth which underpinned great scientific accomplishments came from anywhere except the Ten Commandments, fails repeatedly when it is given more than cursory attention.

Gentle readers.

If  Mr Dawkins is wrong every time, we must start to dare to consider the possibility, that he is absolutely wrong.

I am telling you he is absolutely wrong.

december light

grey mist

pavements glistening with a touch of frost

shop windows glowing

passers by scurrying in scarves and coats

christmas close but not yet

poetry in the early onset of evening

craggy doubters believing for once

little birds with their feathers fluffed for warmth

coffee brewed to a froth

allison humming something about love

heaven and earth are closer than they appear

all the promises of god are true

dances with atheists

Those atheists who wish to make a science of their denial of God, increasingly find themselves claiming aspects of Deity for their atheism.

The statement increasingly in vogue among atheists to wit: "If you think you understand Quantum theory, then you haven't understood Quantum theory," is merely a rehash of Saint Thomas Aquinas' idea: "If you think you've understood God, you have not understood God."

Richard Dawkins attribution of limitless creative power to chance phenomena is a culling of the notion of limitless power from Jewish, Christian and Muslim understandings of God.

Mr Dawkins notion that he himself is all knowing with regard to the accidents he ascribes to the origins of life is a claim of Deity for himself.

Atheistic scientists explaining the universe as existing because a wave form equation which they have devised makes its existence probable is a borrowing of the act of faith from those who believe in God.

Mr Dawkins has derided belief in God as being akin to worshipping something he called the flying spaghetti monster.

This is akin to claiming that the act of according credibility to a scientist or any scientific perspective is the same as belief in the fictional character Doctor Frankenstein and his theories as evinced by the author Mary Shelley in her famous gothic horror story.

There are many many spaghtetti monsters in atheism. (Imagine me saying that in Commandant Lassarde's voice Mahoney.)

The notion that life began spontaneously by chance is a spaghetti monster.

The notion that all creatures on earth evolved from a single cell is a spaghetti monster.

The notion of the multiverse, currently advocated by atheistic scientists who now recognise that there isn't sufficient time in existence as they conceive of it, for Darwinian evolution as the conceive of it to occur, the multiverse being their proposal that the time element no longer matters because reality, as they conceive of it, involves limitless numbers of universes undetectable by experience but constantly winking in and out of existence, and that everything that can happen does happen somewhere including a designerless dynamic for the multiverse itself, life starting by chance, and evolution from a single cell to every living thing we see, is the ultimate spaghetti monster, one which the atheists have raised up as their golden calf, have prostrated themselves before and have attempted to make compulsory for the rest of us to prostrate ourselves before, with a feckless hysteric enthusiam that would embarrass a tribesman worshipping Jujus in the woods.

vladimir putin's greatest hits

The sudden Turkish sneak attack on Armenia which began in September using the Azerbaijani Statelet as a proxy, along with Arab militias recruited mainly in Syria, has ended for now.

Regions which Armenia had held since the 1990s have been reconquered by Azerbaijan.

The Armenian enclave of Nagorno Karabakh, at the outset geographically surrounded by Azerbaijani territory, has been heavily attrited with widespread damage to homes, infrastructure and the natural environment.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has brokered the ceasefire deal which effectively copperfastens the gains made by Turkey and Azerbaijan in their smash and grab war, while deploying Russian peacekeepers to protect what's left of Armenia and the ruined enclave of Nagorno Karabakh..

I would suggest that there are grounds to believe that Mr Putin remained inactive for the first month of the conflict in order to deliberately allow the Turks to weaken Armenia and thereby to compel Armenia to come begging to Russia for intervention.

There is a suspicion in my mind that Mr Putin may have had a secret agreement with Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the limits that Russia would allow for the aggression.

I am reminded of the secret agreement between Stalin and Hitler for the division of Poland in 1939.

In the same week that Mr Putin has sent his peacekeepers to Armenia, news has broken that Russia is selling nuclear reactors to Turkey.

The Muslim Brotherhood government of Turkey joins their regional rivals the Islamic Republic of Iran as beneficiaries of Mr Putin's largesse in the sale of Russian nuclear technology.

I am reminded of yet another of Stalin's secret agreeements with Hitler in the 1930s whereby the Russian communist dictator allowed his German Nazi counterpart to secretly raise German armies and to create an air force on Russian soil in order to evade the restrictions imposed on Germany by the Treaty of Versailles.

Stalin believed Hitler would be a problem only for the Western World.

In the end stopping him cost millions of Russian lives.

Mr Putin thinks Islamism is a problem only for America, Canada, Ireland, Britain, Europe, New Zealand and Australia.

I predict that Islamist nations armed with nuclear weapons by Russia will ultimately take many many millions of Russian lives.

the tough man

 Sitting on a bench in a park.

A tough man approaches and sits down.

I recognise him but it is not true to say I know him exactly.

I know of him.

We have never been introduced.

"Will you talk?" he asks.

Sometimes I won't talk bold readers because there are people who think I'm talking because I'm afraid of them.

I don't like to let them get confused.

But today whatever the whimsy, I indicated that I would talk.

"I have a brain chemistry disorder," said the tough man out of the blue. "I've been on anti depressants for twenty years."

"I have to ask you," I said, "and I mean nothing by it. I'd ask anyone the same question. How do you know you have a brain chemistry disorder?"

"My doctor told me."

"When?"

"Twenty years ago."

"Okay."

I asked him a few questions about his life and he answered.

Then I said: "Do you mind me asking where you live. Okay. My image of that is that it is a tough place to live. No disrespect to the people or the buildings. But it's a tough place. There are pressures for anyone living there. Nothing to do with your brain chemistry. It's a tough place for anyone to live. The dogs in the street know that on that estate you've got to get used to being offered Maloneys drugs every day of your life from childhood on. Maloney's drugs will destroy you as will being a member of his gang. I don't care if they're what you call soft drugs. My testimony to you is that they will steal your life and leave you with nothing. Marijuana today is about fifty times stronger than it was twenty years ago. You might as well be electrocuting your brain direct from the mains and then wondering why you don't feel good.If you take them, those drugs will damage you as much as what the doctors are now dosing you with. Again nothing to do with your brain chemistry. Another thing. On that estate, if you're not friends with the Maloney gang, they'll make your life a misery. That'll damage you too. I knew the guy who jumped off the bridge. It'll be real misery. No brain chemistry disorder there. Thugs making your life a misery. A perfectly reasonable response to misery is to be miserable. Your brain is working fine. If you are friends with them, that brings consequences and pressures too. They destroy everything they touch. Do you go to church? I'm not judging. I'm just saying our generation is the first generation in recorded history to think we could live without God and we're finding out the hard way that we can't. And doctors are telling us we have brain chemistry disorders. It's hilarious. Living without God is not a brain chemistry issue. It's an issue of ignoring the Creator of the Universe who made you for himself. No one on earth has ever managed to do it and be happy. Do you have a job? Any bullying there. Right then. You're ahead of the chase. Some of us can't hold down a job or if we have one we're getting a hard time in the work place. American Psychologists would be very optimistic about your prospects for mental healing since you're employed and you don't have workplace problems. Relationships? Married? Okay, okay. Do you watch pornography? You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. No brain chemisty disorder there. But if you're watching it, it will take your peace and ruin your personhood. Have you taken part in any of the sorcery stuff going on in the town? Black magic, devil worship, ouijie boards, that sort of thing? If you're doing it, it will destroy you, brain chemistry, body and soul. Any unforgiveness in your life? Anyone do anything really lousy to you that you've never let go of? Forgive it all. That's a heap of healing right there. Have you ever read the Gospel of Saint Matthew? Listen. All I can do is tell you what I think. Medicine has taken a tremendous wrong turn in the mass dispensing of anti depressants. Anti depressants are inherently harmful for everyone who takes them.  If you decide to come off anti depressants, you're probably going to need back up. You'll be as addicted to those as you are to Maloney's poisons. So there will be withdrawal pain. But withdrawal pain is the good kind of pain. It's the pain of your body saying to you: 'every day in every way I'm getting better and better.' You'll need the help of people you trust, family maybe or any one you can really confide in as a friend. Get other advice. You've talked to me and I've given you my honest assessment. This is the best I can do. What I'm saying to you, I truly believe. There's nothing wrong with your brain chemistry. There never was anything wrong with your brain chemistry. You were suffering a lot and making some terrible decisions. But your mind has an ability to heal itself. It wants to be well. You were made to be well. Lose the porno. Lose the hoorin and toorin. Lose the sorcery. Lose the drugs. Lose the television. Forgive, forgive, forgive. Read the Gospel of Saint Matthew. Pray. Go to church. Doctors can't say that to you in case you'd sue them for being judgemental. And anyway they can't make money in treatement that simply involves guiding you towards making an effort to address things in your life that are hurting you and that you need to change. The anti depressants are not rectifying anything. They are preventing you from experiencing reality. They are preventing you from identifying and addressing the issues you need to address in order to be at peace with yourself. They are blocking your brain function. And they're damaging you. If you decide I've spoken truly, consider carefully your next step. I am saying you can be well. Get help. From someone who doesn't think drugs are the answer to everything. And regardless of what you think of me, go to church and ask God for his help."

In five minutes talking to him, I'd gotten the clinical history his doctor hadn't bothered looking for twenty years ago.

And I'd establsihed that he'd spent twenty years on the same anti depressants that no one is meant to be prescribed for any longer than six weeks.

I ask you.

Have the doctors got a conscience?

It's a rum world.

People and clinicians will flee from five hundred coherent rational explanations for mental pain.

And along the way they'll embrace every horror they meet.

And they are oh so comfortable with brain chemistry.

the trump dilemma

There is significant evidence of widespread electoral fraud in this month's Presidential election in the USA.

I am suggesting that the election was stolen from Donald Trump.

The methodologies for the fraud began to become apparent in the months before the vote with opinion polls vastly overstating support for Joe Biden, and continued via systemic early media declarations of States for Biden on election night to create an appearance of momentum for Biden and suppress the Trump vote, and culminated late the same evening in the synchronous abandoment of vote counts in several States to allow for the manufacture of phantom votes for Biden in order to overturn overwhelming Trump leads.

The dilemma for Mr Trump is that those methods have been used before in attempts to cheat Presidents he may not wish to be seen comparing himself to.

In 1960, the Democrats are reputed to have stolen the Presidential election, cheating a young Richard Nixon out of his rightful victory on behalf of John F Kennedy.

I say "reputed to have stolen" because we always have to consider the vested interests of communists, mafias, and other mischief makers in shaking public confidence in every election we hold.

Nonetheless.

The gambit was purportedly engineered through the late night gerrymandering of results in a single county of a single State.

On the whims of history, Mr Nixon's name has since become a dirty word in American politics so it is unlikely that Trump staffers will cite his experiences in 1960 in arguing that the present election was stolen.

The ruination of Richard Nixon's reputation has entered folklore as his just deserts for some purportedly criminal behaviour by staffers of his who in the early 1970s attempted to surreptitiously insert recording equipment in a Democratic Party office.

In truth Nixon was brought down by a persistent media campaign of slander which stampeded his own party away from him.

They've been trying to do precisely the same thing to Trump with an identical range of dirty tricks right up to their use of an essentially frivolous impeachment process to create an aura of criminality around the President.

Remember the Dems only threatened Nixon with immpeachment but actually have impeached President Trump. The threat was enough to drive Nixon from office but this time the American people weren't buying and the impeachment of Trump was widely considered a politicised legalistic bums' rush Democratic Party scam too far.

Still Trump's people are not inclined to adopt a media strategy of comparing themselves with Nixon.

When Nixon did win an election in 1968 and again overwhlemingly in 1972 the media and the Democratic Party used smear tactics to discredit him suggesting repeatedly just as they have done with Trump, that Mr Nixon was mentally unstable.

The dilemma remains. How can Trump show how this game is presently being orchestrated without bracketing himself with President Nixon?

Another aspect of the Trump dilemma in addressing these methodoligies of electoral fraud, is the clear analogy between what has been done to him and what was attempted with George W Bush in the year 2000.

Early on election ngiht 2000, the media networks began calling Florida for Al Gore. This was done while the Republican strongholds of Florida were still voting. Since the populace had been told that Bush couldn't win without Florida, declaring Florida decided for Gore, meant the Bush vote was collapsed both in the still voting Republican panhandle areas of Florida and across the United States of America.

Bush still won but this is how the coup was attempted. The intention was to collapse the Bush vote and bring some close run States within stealing distance.

On election night this month, Fox News early on announced Arizona for Joe Biden. This is one of the States whose results are the subject of allegations of fraud. None of the other major networks called Arizona for Biden.

Left wing commentator Michael Moore claimed twenty years ago when trying to refute notions of an attempted Democratic Party coup against George Bush implicit in the early Florida declaration, that it was in fact the supposedly Republican Party sympathising Fox News which first called the State wrongly for Gore. Michael Moore also tried to diminish the notion that an orchestrated fraud was in place using an early declarations methodology by claiming that the Fox News announcment had been made by a cousin of Mr Bush's who worked at the network. Of course Mr Bush's cousin may have read out such an announcement. There is no possibility that he made the call.

So for Trump again we have the dilemma of whether or not he wishes to compare his situation with that of a President whom he has opportunistically vilified particularly with regard to what I call Mr Bush's heroic and necessary decisive interventions against Al Qaeda in Afghanistan and the Saddam Hussein murderocracy in Iraq.

Just so's you know where I stand folks.

There is another dilemma for President Donald Trump involving the fate of yet another putative President from the recent past..

Some of us assert that Mr Trump is this year being robbed of the Presidency through electoral fraud.

Some of us on the lunatic fringe of conspiracy theorists are also suggesting a paradigm involving electoral fraud perpetrators acting on Mr Trump's own behalf or at least to his benefit using exactly the same methodology four yeas ago to rob the Presidency from Hillary Clinton.

It's grim up t'western civilisation.
