YES! BUSH PUTS BOLTON INTO UN

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

It’s the only just move to make.

Dems and Republicans in Name Only (RINO) won’t like it. But that’s one of the prime reasons why the US President George W. Bush should appoint John Bolton as US Ambassador to the United Nations.

Of course, this Bolton placement is long overdue. Bolton should have been lauded by the US Congress and placed right there where he can do freedom-based countries some benefit. Naturally, his presence will surely enhance the position of America in the Manhattan assembly.

It’s time to put a Bush type such as Bolton in the UN when the world is wobbling like crazy with nuclear build ups in enemy nations and crazy Muslims stoking bomb plants in every corner. A timid soul will not do.

He must be a thinking, aggressive, creative mind like Bolton. The Bush-Bolton mind duo thinks in ditto and so will shorthand messages on significant issues, a communication style needed more than ever in these anxious times.

The only reason Bolton is not already in the UN is sheer political madness. That includes, sadly, the turncoat RINOs. I live with two of them here in Maine.

(And now this week we have Senator Majority Leader Bill Frist playing Judas on stem cell. With that, true, concerned Americans could stand a sane Bush appointment like Bolton to the UN. We need some strategic tempo to help balance out this Frist betrayal).

Dems who sent a letter to Mr. Bush opposing an appointment of Bolton to the UN included the name of New York Senator Hillary Clinton. Add to that signature those of Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada and Senators Dick Durbin of Illinois, Joe Biden of Delaware, Ron Wyden of Oregon, Bill Nelson of Florida and Patty Murray of Washington.

All the more Bolton must go to the UN. Those names placed on one sheet of paper sent to the Oval Office should stir the logic fires all the more for the appointment.

The Red States have been quite patient since last November. We have waited and waited for sanity to start to take hold in our nation — then spread.

It has been particularly slow in coming in some quarters. But if a Bolton appointment is made that will at least encourage those of us who put Mr. Bush back in the White House.

FRIST, FRIST, FRIST, WHAT HATH THOU DONE?

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

What you have done of course not only involves stem cells but also what you have done to the Republican Party unity within Congress. That naturally includes what negative force you have set loose against the US President George W. Bush.

Shame.

This is not a very good moral week for you, betrayer Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist. Not at all. And you should hear the clamor from all the morally-based American citizens who realize quite pointedly the horrific move you’ve made.

Horrific? Yes. Horrific regarding the unborn children. Horrific regarding your allegiance to the President. Horrific regarding your own double-tongued exposure.

Now you are classed among the politically opportunistic when many banked on your utter sincerity. Now there are those raising legitimate questions about your motives when heretofore your pretty face impress with doctor’s credentials captured many in logging faith in you.

But now. It’s all unraveling.

You’ve now joined the Republican few who stood with the Democrats against Bolton and Bush. That just should not happen. The Red States victory set forth a united Republican Party for morally-based legislation and reputable persons lodged into various governmental positions.

But along with the RINO (Republicans in Name Only) antics regarding the Bolton issue we now have the Judas Frist defection. As far as I am concerned, you’re washed up. And I certainly hope you don’t even think of running for the Chief Executive office in ’08.

As New York Senator Hillary Clinton has courted the middle and right with her phony speeches, now you are courting the middle and left with your public statement on stem cells. An opportunist is an opportunist, no matter the party.

I’ll let others get into the stem cell detail regarding embryonic stem cell research and adult stem cell research. Most of us have done our study on that matter.

For instance, we are now aware of what NewsMax reports: “Last year, embryonic stem cell research advocate Ron Reagan admitted that the science probably won't do anything to help those suffering from the disease that killed his father, telling MSNBC: ‘Alzheimer's is a disease, ironically, that probably won't be amenable to treatment through stem cell therapies.’”

However, right now I’m trying to deal with your persona — your soul, if you will. Who are you anyhow? Is this the first crack in your soul wall? Will we discover another Frist on other issues than the conservative, Christian Frist we had believed in?

We’ve been hoodwinked before, like unto Sandra Day O’Connor and David Souter. So we know realism dictates that we’ll be hoodwinked many more times over in the future. But for the hoodwinking plunked at your Congressional office this week is unbelievable.

For that, go back home to crawl in bed with the Democrats. You and the other RINOs who stood against Bolton and Bush.

The Republican Party does not need turncoats. We have enough on our plates without having to battle alongside opportunists seeking their own egocentric agendas rather than the moral base of a genuine believer.

WHERE IS THE UN IN THIS FIGHT AGAINST INSANE ISLAM?

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

What good is the community of nations if it does not act? What power has it if it does not use it? What influence has the company of representatives if it sits on its hands?

The world is being held captive by crazy Muslims. The United Nations is not united in doing anything about it. Instead, the slender building stands as a cold tomb slab in Manhattan.

When will the world representatives come to realize that the planet is under assault, every country, even Muslim nations like Egypt? This is a world slaughter plan by insane cultists. They will not stop. They will continue.

US President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair can go to the telecasts for statements of national resolve until they talk themselves dry, but that won’t solve the crazy plots. That won’t undo the nuthouse Islamics.

Many of these killers are boys and girls who are put up to the gun and bomb hanging by adults who delight in seeing violence spread blood. If they are not children, they are teens not yet grown adults. Teens are full-fledged warriors now in the Muslim world take-over. They are more than willing to run, scout about, dodge bullets, and then tie suicide ropes to their chests in order to entrance sex orgies eternal.

With this going on daily, the UN remains silent.

Of course we have come to conclude that Muslim despots will do and say nothing to quell their own killing “brethren.” That’s a given. It won’t change for the despots are lunatics themselves, governed by Allah the Devil.

But the UN is made up of other than Muslims. Yet the others are not saying anything, doing anything, when all the while they should be standing to their feet, demanding initiatives, sending out militia to slay every enemy and deporting all Muslims from freedom-based countries back to their murder dungeons.

Deportation.

If every freedom-based nation got rid of the Muslims now inhabiting them, the world would start to become safe again. Every Muslim, including the doctors and professors and pharmacists and so forth. Not one of them can be trusted.

They are all part of the mosque, the cleric preaching, the Koran loyalty, the Allah adherence. Therefore, every one of them is potential murder material.

Get rid of them from freedom-based nations. Now. Quickly. And the UN should take the initiative to call for this planetary follow through.

The United States must take the lead. Mr. Bush should go to Congress, presenting the reality, with government working now to rid the country of Muslim murder potentials as well as sleeper cells housing killers set to blow up America.

The UN once again has proven itself next to worthless.

PRO-LIFE DEMS PLEAD FOR PLACE IN PARTY. WON’T HAPPEN

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

The pro-life Dems feel left out in the shivering cold — for a long, long time now. And it’s not all that pleasant. Being a Dem without a party is heartless. Yet there are those suffering the stay.

According to NewsMax.com, Dems who are anti-killing womb babies are hurting. Therefore, they appealed to Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean to do something about their plight.

Dean responded with two tongues, of course. In his reply Dean told media that the Dems have got to do something about appearing in public with slaughter knives in hand while at the same time appearing peace loving toward the womb. But what Dean offered for a solution was nothing. Nothing, unless one takes double-talk for something.

Therefore, if the pro-life Dems think they are going to get anywhere with the rest of the Dem gang, having lost already with their party chairman, they’re still caught somewhere between reality and lalaland.

Now what the pro-life Dems should actually do is this: They should become Republicans and give up on the killing party known as the Democratic Party. The latter is for killing off babies, the biblical definition of marriage, the traditional understanding of sexual faithfulness within marital vows, masculinity, genuine biblical femininity, morals in public education, the Judeo-Christian heritage of America and desecularization of the United States.

In other words, the Dems are for murdering innocent infants in female bodies, any definition of marriage, practicing homosexuality as a legitimate lifestyle, masculine-turned-wimp, feminism in the worldly definition, immorality taught in public schools, the wipe out of Judeo-Christian history from American annals, and the establishment of a European-styled secularized state sans God.

Now even if the pro-life Dems got a pittance of what they are begging for, would moral Dems still want to hang around a killing crew like the Democratic Party in the United States?

Wise up, pro-life Dems, and make quick exit for the Republican Party which stands for defending womb babies, upholding biblical definitions of marriage and sexuality, morality in public education, accenting the Judeo-Christian heritage of America and remaining obedient to the God of Scripture.

POPE: PRIESTS FOR CLASSY JOB OR COMMITMENT?

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

That’s what Pope Benedict XVI is concerned about. He wonders about the increase of priests in Asia and Africa.

That increase in numbers should be cause for jubilation within Roman Catholicism since there is a marked decline of priests in Europe especially. However, the Pope cautions those who would rejoice naively.

There are those who come into the vocation for other than commendable motives. These are the ones who will trip up sooner or later, all to the embarrassment of the Church and Christ’s mission worldwide.

The Pope stated: "Becoming a priest, they become almost like a head of a tribe, they are naturally privileged and have another type of life," he said. "So the wheat and the chaff go together in this beautiful growth of vocations.

"Bishops have to be very attentive to discern (among the candidates) and not just be happy to have many future priests, but to see which ones really are the true vocations — discern between the wheat and the chaff," he said, as reported by AP’s Nichole Winfield.

True, in areas like Africa and Asia a priest can hold a socially prominent standing as well as easily develop churchly and political connections in other countries because of his station. That can entice men to enter the Catholic priesthood in order to up the social scale of one’s future.

Of course, the real reason a person should enter the priesthood is because of a divine call. The Lord should be singling out those who are meant to minister to others in the name of Christ. All others should never think of becoming a priest.

It is the same in Protestantism. There are many now going into the Protestant ministry without a divine call. Scores are females who are out to further feminist agendas. They know nothing of Christ nor could they care less. They are focused on infiltrating the pulpits and denominations with liberalism, indeed apostasy.

One woman pastor in the United Church of Canada said to me, “I should attend the local Bible study in one of my parishioners’ homes for I really don’t know the Bible.” When I asked her why she was studying for ministry while pastoring a three-charge church, she said she was tired of her prior school teaching profession and so thought the local pastorate would be a happy change. “After all, I like working with people.”

There was no evidence at all of a divine call. She in fact never heard of the term “divine call.”


There are others such as practicing homosexuals who enter the Protestant ministry in order to turn denominations around for evil’s sake. And that is not only to turn around a local church but work within the entire denomination to bring about a satanic hold.

Note that happening in the United Church of Canada, Anglican Communion, Episcopal Church of America, United Church of Christ (Congregational), Unitarian-Universalist Society, and Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. (The term “Evangelical” in that title is a misnomer for that denomination is no longer denomination-wide “evangelical” as the term is used today). Homosexuals are now making headway in various sections of the United Methodist Church and certain Presbyterian churches.

Therefore, both compartments of Christendom — Protestantism and Catholicism — are in need of true spiritual leadership to ascertain the guidance of the Holy Spirit when ordaining persons for Christian ministry.

Wheat and tares are lodged side by side in both camps. The wheat have much to endure. The tares are willing to sacrifice all in order to see through their antiChrist position.


YES. U.S. TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ SOON

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

The sooner non-Muslims get out of New Iraq the wiser.

Muslim murderers global have made New Iraq their prime circus for slaughter. Therefore, with infidels sitting ducks there, murderers daily kill off ducks as well as their own Muslims.

That all fits in with the Muslim creed that states that if Muslims get in the way of the cause, too bad. They must be expendable in order to see through Allah’s dictates.

Once non-Muslims get out of New Iraq, then Muslims can go at one another, which no doubt they will. Why? Because any Muslim who communicates with non-Muslims, particularly Westerners, is considered a weak Muslim and in need of being extinguished. Muslims who deal with non-Muslims or who don’t slay non-Muslims are considered cowardly and therefore must be slain.

All of this is based on the killing cult known as a world religion. In fact it is not so much a religion among world religions as it is an obvious killing cult. World religions are tolerated. Killing cults are shut down.

If a killing cult cannot be shut down, as in New Iraq sans non-Muslims, then cultists will be left to lay low one another. At least U.S. troops won’t be in the way to be slain; further, the world can then view in large-screen a cult turn on itself.

Again: as long as infidels are present in New Iraq, they must be killed, per Muslim doctrine. U.S. troops are considered infidels; therefore, they must be killed.

Get U.S. troops out of New Iraq so that they are not killed. Leave New Iraq to the Muslims who can decide to carry on with constructing a democracy or let the Muslim murderers global take over for another round of Hussein human shredding machines.

It’s hopeful that New Iraq sans non-Muslims will quell the Muslim slayers for there are thousands of Iraqis trained as soldiers and security police. Therefore, these persons will be guarding their new government, its constitution and the future hope of the country. It is hoped that these protectors will be strong enough to put down the insane Muslims once the non-Muslims leave the borders.

Media informs that those in charge say U.S. troops may be out of New Iraq by next spring. Let’s hope so.

Of course, that can only happen realistically if New Iraq democracy dreamers have in place a security block to prevent implosion. Peace-loving citizens of the planet don’t want New Iraq to fail. If it fails, then Muslims murderers global will turn to every freedom-based nation to do it in. They are doing that now; but the attack will increase to a bloody mayhem.

Right now there are 77,000 soldiers in the New Iraq army. That number is set to expand, according to Robert Burns of the AP. Further, there are presently 94,000 police in place. It is expected that number will increase to 145,000 by the close of 2005.

That means that the above numbers represent Muslims in New Iraq who believe in democracy, do not want a return to Hussein human shredding machines and are willing to live and die for the new freedom base.

In New Iraq leaders are not only confronting the challenges of establishing an infrastructure in a nation that started from zero. They are also battling a killing cult known as “Islam” or the “Muslim religion.”

When Operation Iraqi Freedom opened up over two years ago, those in charge never dreamt that they would face a killing cult. They thought they were releasing those in bondage to a despot, the released belonging to a “peace religion.”

Now the world realizes that Islam is no “peace religion” but a killing cult from hell. Its Allah is Satan, the Koran demonic, mosque clerics Satanists and propaganda sites as Citizens for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) liars.

The whole philosophy of enter-and-set-free via Operation Iraqi Freedom has changed from simply militarily overcoming the Hussein foe to combating a killing cult determined to make its presence global so as to make certain no one is alive but Muslims.

With that, the sooner non-Muslims get out of New Iraq, the saner. The only practical hitch must be that the security force is strong enough in New Iraq to withstand the insane cult members who will slaughter their own in the name of deity.

ISLAM: A KILLING CULT, NOT A RELIGION

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

You can call Islam a religion among world religions if you want. But more accurately it is a killing cult.

The other world religions do not espouse killing off those who disagree with them. Islam’s baseline is to kill off all non-Islamics. That makes it not so much a religion among world religions as a killing cult.

When Islam is regarded not as a respectable religion among religions but a killing cult, then it can be shut down by governments, particularly freedom-based governments as the United States of America. America does not and has not tolerated killing cults. They investigate them, then when finding them truly to be putting humans to death, they shut them down.

It is now time for the United States officialdom, starting with the Oval Office, to define Islam as a killing cult out to slaughter all non-devotees. Previously the naivete of those in American government have referred to Islam as a "peace religion." Of course, those into the study of world religions and theology knew better than our elected officials.

Now US President George W. Bush refers to Islam no longer as a peace religion but "an ideology of hate." British Prime Minister Tony Blair has likewise had his own awakening on terminology and definitions. He now refers to Islam as an "evil ideology."

The word "evil" in particular denotes religious definitions. When something is "evil" then it is not "righteous" or "good" or "holy." It is evil in that it has to do with the devil. Therefore, Blair’s definition comes even closer to defining realistically Islam than the US President.

The truth of Islam is that it is not only a killing cult rather than religion among world religions. It is in truth "evil" in that its whole scope is from the demonic. In other words, one can take each dimension of Islam and define it in terms of hell, "hell" defined as the place of eternal damnation as spelled out by Christ in particular and the New Testament in general.

Islam then is from hell.

Allah then is another name for the Devil, Satan, Beelzebub, The King of the Pit, and so forth.



The Koran thereby has been scribed under demonic influence.

Mohammed is not a genuine prophet of the God of the Bible but instead was a false prophet overcome with demonic spirits.

From the Bible one learns that the essence of the demonic is to kill. In time frame, that killing is forever in the corridors of the damned. In other words, to be damned is to be killed in the soul but never die; it is a slaying that is never completed. Hell’s torture is to be eternally dying but never dying.

Islam then gives itself away as having nothing to do with the redemptive deity of Scripture. The God of the Bible appeared in Christ in order to save the repentant from their sins. This Christ provided His own sinless sacrifice upon Calvary in order to stand in our place, being a substitute sacrifice for us.

That is love. That is mercy. That is forgiveness. That is hope. That is the entrance into eternal life of holiness.

Islam has no parallel to the Christian experience of divine love, mercy, forgiveness, hope and an eternal life of holiness. Islam knows only the direct opposite, hence it being not from heaven but from hell.

Furthermore, Christ had a high regard for the female. That was contrary to the first century culture in which He ministered. Apostle Paul wrote that there is no difference in the sight of God regarding male and female. That is, there is no prejudice in the heart of God for male and against female.

Yet in Islam the female is cursed from conception — with ten curses in the form of ten exposures of female genitalia. Therefore, that obscenity is logged into that female for her entire earthly stay. The only way she can absent herself of one of those curses it to marry. But the other nine exposure curses remain till death.

No wonder then that Islam treats females as less than Earth’s scum. Females are hidden behind stifling fabric for life — covering the human body made in the image of God, covering it from head to toe. That’s demonic. That’s not Godlike.

As one examines detail after detail of Islam doctrine in contrast to the Christian doctrine, one realizes that the Christian revelation in Scriptures is from the benevolent God while the Koran dictates the teachings of Satan.

That is why Islamics call America the "Great Satan." It is in order to sidetrack thinking away from the fact that Allah is Satan and thereby call America by the name "Great Satan."

That also occurred in Christ’s ministry. The enemies called Christ Beelzebub in order to label Him with what they in fact were — agents of Beelzebub. Therefore, the transfer of terms is an old trick dating back to Christ’s time.

In summation: Islam is a killing cult directly from hell.

Allah is the Devil.

The Koran has been written by the demons.

Mohammed is a false prophet overcome by demons.

Those devoted to the killing cult are thereby enveloped in a demonic power that is worldwide and world threatening.

Christians then pray for the enemy, that is, those caught up in the killing cult. They pray for the overthrow of this satanic attack upon civilized peoples.

They have faith that the Holy Spirit will work alongside the truth-committed to do in the spiritual foe called "Islam."

DON’T ADD YOGA TO CHRISTIAN PRAYERS

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

If yoga were a part of Christian prayer life, the Bible would have instructed Christians in yoga. But the Bible does not do that. Therefore, taking yoga into a so-called Christian prayer is nonsense and may be worse. It could open the spirit to demonic spirits. Yoga is not of Judeo-Christian origin. It is of other religions origin. Not good.

If that sounds too way out, consider this: In the Bible, the Lord has provided every bit of information necessary regarding communicating with Him. There is absolutely no mention of yoga. There is mention of meditation, intercession, agonizing in prayer as Jesus did in all-night prayer, praise in prayer, practical praying such as mentioning specific needs and expectations, and so forth.

If God had meant for yoga to be a divinely recognized prayer exercise, He would have included that mode in His revealed truth. However, God has not done that. Because of that, biblical Christians call the matter over and out. Done with. No more discussion necessary.

That’s the position that I have always taken. I immediately become suspicious when believers start compromising the divine revelation. It smacks of adding unto the divine Word, such prohibited in the Word itself. What God has spoken, He has spoken. There is no hint in the Bible of ongoing revelation on the par of the biblical revelation. None.

Every time the Christian church has tried to champion so-called ongoing revelation, the church has branched out into heresy or outright sin. Consider the present-tense acceptance of the practicing homosexual lifestyle as divinely blessed; adherents say that this is provided them via ongoing revelation, even though it directly contradicts biblical data.

The Early Church was directed by the Holy Spirit in what books to regard as divine revelation and what books to negate as bogus or not worthy of that status.

Believers by faith accept the canon of Scripture as closed because the Holy Spirit closed it. Because Christianity is all based on faith, there is no quibbling with others who do not accept the Christian base by faith. But for that believer who has made that faith decision concerning the Bible, then the matter is settled.

Therefore, when I read in the Florida Catholic web site of a yoga Christian prayer group, one more time the suspicions started to loom. And for good reason.

There is no need for this yoga dimension. There is no reason why any Christian congregation should advertise such. There is in fact all logic why a Christian gathering should prohibit yoga or any other adaptation from other world religions.

Christ has stated that He is the Way, the Truth, the Life, no one comes to the Father but by Him. Christ Himself singled out His incarnation as special, unique and the only means of salvation. That’s particularizing salvation’s entry; nevertheless, though some call it scandalous, real Christians call it praiseworthy and wonderful.

Christ is our all in all. No need to borrow anything from other religions. Christ is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the all-sufficient, the all-consuming, the all-complete.

It is blasphemous then to add on to an already complete Christ. He needs no add-ons, including yoga when a Christian comes to Him in prayer.



PATRIOT ACT IS FOLLY

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

Adding more governmental power over the general populace will not guarantee safety in any nation.

There are those in America who sincerely believe that the Patriot Act is going to deter killers. Not so. They have faith in their protocols. Not sound. They want now to augment that power already gained because the murderers won’t let up. Not logical.

We are not fighting a politic. We are fighting a religion that is different from any other world religion. It is not so much religion as slaying cult. No Patriot Act will quell a cult member. Only holing up those members so that they can’t move will quell that cultic flare for violence.

Therefore, all this talk talk talk back and forth in Congress, press and living rooms is a waste of breath and energy. The Patriot Act is not only incomplete but is wasting a nation’s time by sidetracking what will really work.

If we continue on this Patriot Act track, actually believing that it is a major cure for the disease set upon us, we are giving more time to the foe to overtake us. Further, we are giving the citizenry false hopes.

Dr. Ron Paul, Republican Congressman from Texas, spoke today, July 26, reality’s quotient: "British police officials are not hampered by our 4th amendment nor our numerous due process requirements. In other words, they can act without any constitutional restrictions, just as supporters of the Patriot Act want our own police to act.

"Despite this they were not able to prevent the bombings, proving that even a wholesale surveillance society cannot be made completely safe against determined terrorists. Congress misses the irony entirely.

"The London bombings don’t prove the need for the Patriot Act, they prove the folly of it."

Note once again Dr. Paul’s accent: ". . .even a wholesale surveillance society cannot be made completely safe against determined terrorists."

There is tremendous power in Britain to fight off Muslim murderers global. Yet they have not been able to stave off the slayers. The British already have in place a tight system; but that in itself has not stomped upon the vicious Islamic snake in the grass.

Someone has recommended that the same police who survey the territory in Britain now round up all Muslims within a fifty-mile radius of London. Put them away. Deport them.

Now that’s making sense. That’s plugging into reality. And it doesn’t take a Patriot Act and the augmentation of same to see that through. All it takes is reality check maximum to understand that nothing else will work.

It’s getting rid of the Muslims — all of them — for all of them are members of the killing cult. It is herding them onto transport for exiting the country’s borders. Then it is making certain that none of them ever return — ever.

That’s true patriotism.

That’s an act that is pragmatically justifiable.

And that’s a move that will not impinge upon good citizens’ round-abouts daily. Then why don’t we as a logical, powerful nation do just that as Britain should do just that?

WHY DON’T MUSLIMS KILL IN CHINA?

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

Because the Chinese would blow them off the map.

Democracies are much too kind to diversity, especially killing cults such as Islam. Freedom-based countries are used to giving in, even to those with whom they disagree.

So it is that Muslims, knowing this, make murder while the sun shines. And they will continue. There will be no let up, none, though freedom-based citizens think that it will someday cease. It won’t.

Now that Muslims are on a rampage, they will continue until the last Muslim commits suicide. And one can imagine how many eternities that will take. So in that we peace-loving citizens have our dilemma.

Not so in China.

You don’t read of Muslims blowing up anything there. Why not? Because the Chinese would bomb their holy sites, their travel routes, their prayer mats while mosques would glow splitting through the sky via Chinese whatevers.

China has no history of diversity or tolerance. China has a party line that one goes along with or finds himself in the pit. In other words, China will not be plagued by Muslim murderers global until the Muslims slay everyone else off the planet except the Chinese. Then the Chinese will see who wins the finality. It will be the Chinese, not the Muslims.

Can freedom-based countries learn from the Chinese? I wonder.

Ali Sina, webmaster and editor for FaithFreedom.org, writes truth: "The hatred of non-believers and the instruction to kill them is expressed unequivocally in the Quran in hundreds of verses. True Muslims, those who read the Quran and are familiar with the sayings of Muhammad, cannot condemn terrorism because terrorism is Holy Jihad and Jihad is a pillar of Islam."

Daily Ali Sina attempts to convince Muslims and non-Muslims that Islam is not a religion but a killing cult. It will stop at nothing. Its deceit levels are numerous. And its suicide actors are waiting in line to fly into Allahland for the eternal orgy with playboy bunnies ad infinitum.

Ali Sina should know. He was once a Muslim. Having seen the light of truth, he now spends his life on the side of fact pedaling. May his number increase. But don’t hold your breath on that count.

A friend emailed me this truth flyer on bumper stickers:

Know Islam, Know terror

No Islam, No terror.

China agrees with that saying. China knows Islam. China knows terror. China manufactures its own terror and so will not tolerate any other brand. Therefore, in China no Islam, no terror. It should be thus in America.

America should not permit one more Muslim to come into the country. No matter what credentials. America should round up all Muslims now in the country and inter them in camps. No exceptions.

America should be that kind of example to Great Britain in particular now that Londoners are dealing with their bloody merry-go-round of Muslim bait and carry.

Once America gets rid of Muslims in present location, then America should proceed to bomb a Muslim geography every time a Muslim zealot snuffs out an innocent life.

Keep on with the bombing till there’s nothing left of Muslim hold-out locales. This includes mosques with clerics. This includes silent Muslim despots’ palaces. Blow up the Muslim telecommunications, rail bridges, and their ships in every Islamic port.

There is no other answer to this horrific problem.

Every time I hear a freedom-based politician give forth with resolve platitudes following carnage, I want to cry. It’s either that or scream at the TV. I’m beyond screaming. I’m almost beyond weeping. But not yet.
I believe there is still a chance for sanity to overrule this insane killing cult. But it can only be seen through by

being absolutely aggressive on many fronts.

If there’s any question as to how to ward off the murderers, perhaps a lesson in Chinese would help.

HILLARY’S CONVERSION TO RIGHT DOESN’T WORK

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

Senator Hillary Clinton has become the poster girl for converting Dems to moderate and right. Won’t work.


Hillary tells Dems at recent conclaves that they have to give up on the left and far-left in order to court the moderate and right. Does she not know that the moderate and right are listening in or does she think those speeches are for the insiders only?

When the moderate and right hear Hillary speak on behalf of their sides, they laugh their sides silly. It’s as if listening to Billy Graham meeting with evangelicals to convert them to accept practicing homosexuality as a divine blessing. It just doesn’t work.

Once convictions are cemented in place, that’s where they stay. People live and die for those kinds of convictions.

Hillary has been for too long a life on the left and far left conviction to make a turn-about convincing. It just isn’t so. Further, with the ’08 elections ahead, it does not take high school grad mentality to reason the motive behind Hillary's courting the moderate and right.

All of this Hillary speech making simply highlights all the more what Republicans have known all along, that is, that Dems are quite clueless. In other words, they are stupid on various frequencies, most of the latter being major ones.

I recall Jay Leno making a joke recently in which the nub of it was asking when Democrats would start producing something. Well, I concluded, now their dumbness is even making the joke circuit. Fine with me.

Hillary is now feeding into that joke circuit with her trying to appear Christian-spiritual, morally based, and for the family, tradition, biblical ethics and that sort of milieu where the righteous have been dwelling for too long a time to be fooled by an infiltrator.

Hillary of course is just that — an infiltrator. But the doors were closed to her conversion experience a long, long time ago. Those inside the moderate and right room are too aware of their conviction base to permit a charlatan to come through the entrance.

Therefore, Hillary, understand that your speech making round-about may make a few headlines but it just won’t win you a national election.

No way.

MUSLIMS POTENTIAL KILLERS LIKE BOUYEN

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

Every Muslim is under Koran mandate to do as Mohammed Bouyen did. He killed Theo van Gogh by slitting his throat. Now the Muslim killer has been sentenced to prison for life.

But following logically what the Koran’s Allah dictates to every Muslim, Bouyen was merely being a devout disciple of his own cult. He was following through with what his deity told him to do.

Other Muslims were cowards regarding Theo van Gogh; but Bouyen stood up for his convictions to slay the filmmaker. Further, he was willing to pay whatever price necessary in order to see through his loyalty to Allah.

Translate that to every Muslim on the planet. All Muslims know full well what is expected of them. They read the Koran. They go to the mosque. They listen to the cleric’s preaching. They have been instructed by their parents in how to live.

I recall Dan Rather interviewing Saddam Hussein before The Fall. Hussein spoke religious terminology throughout the interview. One would have thought Rather was interviewing an evangelist. All referred back to some Islamic reference as far as Hussein was concerned.

Further, Hussein stated that he brought up his children “in the faith.” He was a proper father that way. He was diligent in indoctrinating his sons in particular concerning the Islamic obligations. One now can look back on that interview to realize how the devil can dress in angels’ garb.

Yes, Bouyen slew a famous artist. Now Bouyen has been sentenced to life without freedom. Yet Bouyen was only doing what every devout Muslim should do, otherwise plead cowardice before Allah in this life and the next.

Therefore, to translate that conviction worldwide, one realizes that every Muslim thereby becomes a potential killer. Repeat: Every Muslim becomes a potential killer. If not that, then cowardice reigns within the Muslim conclaves global.

Now when non-Muslims understand that underpinning, they should quake, squawk, scream, stomp their feet and march to the legislative halls to make statutes which do the same to all Muslims as was done to Bouyen.

With all Muslims being potential killers, then all Muslims must be sentenced to a life without freedom. In other words, they must be put under surveillance for where they live and breathe could turn immediately into a bloody war zone.

We are witnessing that daily worldwide. There is no place on this Earth that is exempt. Even the Muslim nation, Egypt, has come under assault. So the killing cultic devotees breed within their own borders. They have no care for place nor person. They are going to follow through with slaying every non-Muslim on the planet. And every cowardly Muslim.

With that they are making headway. Truthfully, no government can keep a Muslim from blowing himself and others up. No one.

If I were a Muslim zealot, I could kill myself and others right here where I live in America. No one could stop me. It is such an easy act to see through. Therefore, the freedom dog will be snipping at his freedom tail till Muslims take over everywhere unless Muslims are sentenced to Bouyen’s sentence: life without freedom.

That means Muslims must be placed in internment camps.

That is where they can be watched. That is where they can be separated from liberty-based individuals. That is where government control will truly work. That is where politicians’ words can be matched up with their works. That is there the Muslim killing spree can turn on their own and leave the rest of us alone — in peace.

Until then, expect more blood, more murder, more utter confusion in the halls of supposed power. Thus far, the Muslims are winning.

HOMO ENTHUSIASTS INFILTRATE METHODISTS

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

It’s happening all over again.

The practicing homosexuals are infiltrating big time the United Methodist Church. They have been trying for some time now, not quite able to get enough votes at the annual conclave to turn the Protestant denomination totally around for evil. Yet of course they never give up.

So now it’s North Carolina, a previously conservative geography to United Methodism. It’s entitled "Hearts on Fire," which is a real infiltration of Methodist history and theology in that it was founder John Wesley who focused on such language in his holiness preaching — the infilling of the Holy Spirit with heavenly fire to cleanse out the heart’s carnal nature.

Now that which was once used as biblical preaching content has been prostituted to endorse sodomy in the name of Jesus Christ.

The "convocation is organized by Reconciling Congregations, the main pro-homosexuality lobby group attempting to overturn the Untied Methodist Church’s teachings on marriage and sexual ethics," according to Mark Tooley writing for The Institute of Religion and Democracy Methodist News.

This same infiltration of course is now history with the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, Episcopal Church of America, United Church of Christ (Congregational) and Unitarian-Universalist Society. The worldwide Anglican Communion is suffering with this same evil. Now the so-called "holiness church" known as "Wesley’s Church" is attacked by demonic forces.

The only way that such infiltration can be overcome is for truly biblical members of the denomination to stand strong, be vocal, attend conferences (particularly where there is voting concerning denominational strength and weakness), and determine not to permit a clergyperson of liberal standing to enter their pulpits. Add to that daily prayer and spiritual vigilance at every turn.

The practicing homosexuals do not care a twit about Jesus nor Christian truth. All they care about is flaunting their sexual wares for the world to see. They are exhibitionists within the courts of the holy. They are also power hungry, especially so when entering the Christian pulpits to give forth their anti-Christ messages weekly to captive audiences. These infiltrators work night and day, get on committees, write letters, wiggle their ways into positions or power and then take over.

The truly Christian must do the same — but more.

What happened in the aforementioned denominations is that the truly Christian were more times than not asleep while the enemy took over the camp. Then the truly Christian woke up mornings to realize that their church had been robbed while they napped. It can happen in the United Methodist Church if the truly Christian are not aggressive.

There are many who consider this demonic infiltration as a part of the End Times, another manifestation of the spirit of anti-Christ at work to spread sin around the globe prior to the Second Coming of Christ. With this understanding must also come the biblical message to stand fast, confront the spiritual enemy and defend the coming Christ at all costs.

"Reconciling hopes to attract 400 United Methodists to the convocation, located in western North Carolina. Participants will include 7 bishops: Susan Morrison, Melvin Talbert, Joseph Sprague, Sally Dyck, John Schol, Minerva Carcano and Bishop Richard Wilke.

"Other speakers will include openly lesbian United Methodist minister Beth Stroud, same-sex union convenor Karen Oliveto, and Erin Swenson, a male Presbyterian minister who had a sex-change operation and now professes to be female.

"Reconciling has declared that ‘Hearts on Fire’ will include a ‘rainbow community of faithful lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and heterosexual disciples committed to justice!’"

The United Methodist Church official position is stated in The Book of Discipline where God’s love is affirmed for "homosexuals but call homosexual practice ‘incompatible with Christian teaching.’ Human rights for homosexuals are supported, but the church denies ordination to practicing homosexuals, refuses funding for pro-homosexuality advocacy, and will not allow same-sex unions."

It is this statement that the practicing homosexuals are seeking to overturn.

The world is at war on many levels, the chief being spiritual, of course.

INTERNMENT CAMPS FOR MUSLIMS

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

The polls state that Americans believe that we will be in a Word War III at some future time, perhaps sooner than later.

We are already in Word War III. It’s just not the conventional war. It’s the Muslim worldwide clot versus the non-Muslim community.

We are now in a global conflict. Every nation is involved.

The Muslim nations are involved for doing absolutely nothing to quell the Muslim killers. The non-Muslim nations are obviously involved in being under attack daily — either openly or indirectly.

Therefore, to repeat: the entire planet is under constant siege by Muslim global murderers.

Every morning we wake up to another war zone. Every peace area is a potential war zone. The tactics are not like unto previous world wars; nevertheless, enemies attack and innocent persons are slain. That’s war. And it’s happening throughout the planetary sphere. That’s world war.

Now with this being reality, it’s time to erect the internment camps worldwide.

Put Muslims into those camps. There is no safety for the planet unless we lock up every potential killer. Every Muslim is just that. The Koran states that deity has commanded every non-Muslim be slaughtered by Muslims. That makes every Muslim a potential warrior on the loose.

The mosque clerics are at the head of the pack. The Muslim despots are right up there as well. The instructors in Islamic killer schools are surely there at the front. That leaves the Muslim masses doing exactly what they are told to do by the Koran’s Allah, instructors in killer schools, sleeper cells overseen by local mosque clerics, and the despots providing the silence by which to kill us all off.

Consequently, no Muslim neighborhood is a safe geography.

In a second it can turn into a bloody layout because of the killer instructors doing a very good job of it. The young are ripe for this sort of ongoing killer spree. They are thirsty for blood. The males particularly want to go to Allahland where they have orgies forever, such promised in the Koran. Females snuff out their lives in suicide acts because females have no place on Earth but the scum level, according to the Koran.

Therefore, for America for example to tolerate the Council on America-Islamic Relations ((CAIR) organization, satellite offices, and web site, is to invite killers into our back and front yards. This has to stop. It can only stop when all Muslims are put inside gates and behind fences, when hell-sponsored public relations efforts such as CAIR are closed down completely, and when Congress sees to it that this World War III is won by the non-Muslims.

There is no other answer.

Diplomacy will get nowhere. Threats from peace country war machines will get nowhere. Political back-and-forth debates will get nowhere. TV pronouncements of strong resolve to win the battle will get nowhere.

Suicide actors don’t heed any of these so-called civilized attempts to build bridges for peace, get along with one another and so forth.

We are faced with idiotic, insane cultish killers who belong to no religion recognized by world religions researchers. Instead, non-Muslims are confronted by members of a persistent murdering cult.

Civilized nations immediately close down killing cults. America does and has. Therefore, it’s time to do that now.

Put Muslims in internment camps. Shut them out and off.

TOKYO QUAKE: CREATOR GOD SPEAKING AGAIN?

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

"A strong earthquake that struck Tokyo at the weekend, paralyzing public transport for hours, should act as a useful wake-up call for one of the world's most quake-prone cities, disaster experts said on Monday.

"The biggest quake in 13 years struck just east of the capital on Saturday, injuring 37 people and triggering chaos in Tokyo's transport network. Highways were closed, subways disrupted and trains halted for hours, leaving many stranded, hundreds of them overnight.

"Worried friends and relatives were unable to reach people in Tokyo because mobile phone networks had to limit calls due to overload," according to today’s Reuters.

And so it goes. . .on and on and on.

God speaks through earthquakes. God made the Earth. The Earth will answer to God.

According to the Bible, End Times occurrences include multitudinous earthquakes. Evangelical biblical scholars are repeating that it appears as if we, this last generation of the Church Age, are the capstone to the End Times.

The Church Age began with the First Coming of Christ. The Church Age will conclude with the Second Coming of Christ. As to deity in relation to the creation of this Earth, it is specifically the Second Person of the Trinity — Christ — who was the agent of creation. (Read John 1:1-3; Ephesians 3:9; Hebrews 1:1-2; II Peter 3:5; Revelation 4:11).

This same Christ who created Earth came to Earth in the incarnation in order to offer Himself as the sinless sacrifice in our stead. By His sacrifice on the cross, His holy blood was shed from seven body fountains in order that the repentant soul may find salvation.

That salvation includes divine forgiveness of all past sins, present abiding presence of the Holy Spirit, and at death the hope of heaven. "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." (II Corinthians 5:8)

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)

This Christ ushered in the Church Age. This Christ will take out the Church Age. Near to the close of the Church Age, there are various signs to occur on the planet. These signs were enumerated by this Christ to His disciples two thousand years ago. The message is recorded in literal terms particularly in the Gospels of Matthew (chapter 24), Mark (chapter 13) and Luke (chapter 21) of the New Testament.

Included in the End Times signs are earthquakes, such as the Earth is experiencing today. For instance, in the Second Coming chapter detailing End Times signs, Matthew 24, Christ states that "nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes" (verse 7).

At His crucifixion — unjustly brought upon Him by both sinful Gentiles and Jews — Christ’s sacrificial death triggered an earthquake. "And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up His spirit. And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom, and the earth shook.

"And the rocks were split, and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised, and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection they entered the holy city and appeared to man." (Matthew 27:50-53)

Christ’s last breath triggered an earthquake upon His own created turf. That quake split the Holy of Holies veil in half. It also split rocks. There were tombs coughed open after His first-day-of-the-week resurrection, permitting the saints to enter Jerusalem, appearing to mortals. (The saints did not come forth on Friday. Since Christ is the "firstfruits of the dead," the saints came out of their tombs after Christ came out of Joseph’s tomb. Therefore, the saints appeared to others on Sunday.)

Further, after Christ’s return from the dead, an earthquake signaled that resurrection miracle. "Now late on the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave.

"And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the lord descended from heaven and came and tolled away the stone and sat upon it." (Matthew 28:1-2)

An earthquake shook the planet at Christ’s last breath. Another earthquake shook the planet at His coming back to life. The two earthquakes were as large parentheses enveloping the saving divine act begun and completed.

During the Early Church beginnings, there was a significant earthquake recorded. "About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns of praise to God, and the prisoners were listening to them: and suddenly there came a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison house were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s chains were unfastened." (Acts 16:25-26)

In Christ’s vision (The Revelation) given to John the Beloved on the Isle of Patmos off of Greece, Christ detailed an earthquake occurring at the time of the Second Coming. As Christ is cascading through Earth’s atmosphere with His saints and a host of angels, the atmosphere itself is in quake. Along with that, the Earth is shaking.

"And I looked when He broke the sixth seal and there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken by a great wind. And the sky was split apart like a scroll when it is rolled up; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

"And the kings of the earth and the great men and the commanders and the rich and the strong and every slave and free man, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains; and they said to the mountains and to the rocks, ‘Fall on us and hide us from the presence of Him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb; for the great day of their wrath has come; and who is able to stand?’"

Islands moved out of their places. That is happening with present-tense quakes and tsunamis. Mountains are moved out of their sockets. That likewise is happening with present-tense quakes and tsunamis. At the Second Coming, EVERY mountain and island will be "moved out of their places."

Presently world leaders are quaking due to the severe threats to the global community: AIDS, weapons of mass destruction, famine plagues, and so forth. These leaders will realize at the close of the Church Age, at the time of the Second Coming of Christ especially, that human resources won’t supply. They won’t add up. Further, they will realize, along with the world community of rich, poor, powerful and powerless, that the End has come. A great earthquake will be a major thrust of that culminating divine message.

Will humans have prepared themselves for this culmination? Will souls have cried out for salvation in Christ? Will evil lives be traded in for holy lives? Will secularism and materialism be put aside for the self-giving Christ-like life? Will atheism be cast to the winds in favor of the Christian witness? Will New Age, cults and false religions be recognized as fabrications of hell?

In The Revelation, Christ reveals to John the following earthquake that will occur right at the Second Coming: "And the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon the air; and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying, ‘It is done.’

"And there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a great earthquake, such as there had not been since man came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty.

"And the great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of His fierce wrath.

"And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. And huge hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, came down from heaven upon men, and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, because its plague we extremely severe." (Revelation 16:17-21)

Note that Christ revealed to John that at the Second Coming, EVERY island will "flee away." "Mountains were not found."

Earthquakes now are messages from God for human beings to repent of their sins, find salvation in the coming Christ, and live the holy life.

Those who do not will answer to the "fierce wrath" of the divine. God is not only everlasting love. He is also everlasting anger. Both are in perfect eternal balance. There is not one without the other in the person of God.

For those who genuinely turn from their selfish, wicked ways unto the Christ way, there is the loving compassionate mercy from the heart of God. For those who stubbornly continue on in their sins, living for Satan, there is the anger of God descending upon their eternities.

POPE CALLS EUROPE BACK TO CHRIST

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

With secularization becoming a national fade in some countries, particularly in Europe where Christian faith once held sway, Pope Benedict XVI called on his continent to return to Christ.

In America the same tussle continues daily. The irreligious, particularly holing up in the Democratic Party, is in war against the religious, the latter especially finding solace within the Republican Party. Of course there are religious and irreligious in both conclaves; however, the overwhelming religious influence in the Democratic Party are the irreligious and vice versa in the Republican Party.

So it is that during the Clinton reign, though the two White House occupants attended worship with Bibles in hand, their lifestyles typified outright secularism, indeed at times blatant evil by their endorsement, for example, of killing womb babies. American morally-based citizens wondered at times if they had lost their Judeo-Christian heritage altogether, that continuing when secularized judges kept edging the country away from biblical morals in favor of sin.

Now that the Bush administration has taken hold, those of biblical faith have been encouraged. They have continued the fight, nevertheless, realizing that everything is quite tenuous and never a slack moment can be tolerated. Therefore, the truly spiritual pray, worship and witness to the scripture’s eternal verities, knowing that the enemy lurks nearby to grasp the nation for Satan’s sake.

In Europe the swing has gone so far in the direction of condoned sinful lifestyles that only a God reviving wave could bring it back to its origins. That’s what the Pope is interceding for.

He asks the European populace to consider their spiritual waywardness while at the same time resolving to discover Christ’s ethic once more, Christ’s indwelling presence afresh, and a vibrant faith in the Word of God become personal.

Pope Benedict stated to his fellow Europeans that it is most imperative for them to "return to yourselves. Discover your origins. Revive your roots. Revive those authentic values that made your history glorious and made your presence among other continents blessed.

"Let us pray that the new generations, borrowing from Christ's vital sap, know that they are part of a European society that is excited by a renewed humanism in which faith and reason cooperate in a fertile dialogue for the promotion of the man and the construction of an authentic peace."

100,000 MUSLIM BRITS NOT LOYAL TO BRITAIN

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

There are 100,000 Brit Muslims who express no or little loyalty to Britain, such YouGov survey taken after the recent bombings, according to Anthony King of the The Daily Telegraph.

In other words, there are that many in Britain who don't care about the dead. They are more loyal to Islam than to the country in which they reside. The numbers equal one in four Muslims, such numbers frightening in realizing that that large a number could turn themselves into Islamic killers international.

The numbers include more young than old, more men then women. The 100,000 stated to surveyors that they support the Muslim murderers. That's quite a cheering section for pulling down London.

One can imagine by the global silence from the Muslims that those stats could very well be transplanted to other freedom nations as well.

Islam is a killing cult supported by the Koran's Allah, such deity demanding all non-Muslims slain worldwide. Muslims who don't join in the slaughter are to be slain as cowards. Therefore, it does not take much thought to realize that the entire planet is engaged in World War III.

British Prime Minister Tony Blair characterized the bombers as "perverted and poisonous." Twenty-six percent of Muslims interviewed did not agree with Blair. Does that blare a warning to all liberty-based countries?

In addition, one once again must take into account the Muslim despots seated upon their thrones, saying absolutely nothing by way of castigating the bombers. Nothing. Nothing has been their position all along for they cannot counter the Koran's Allah.

The Islamic loyalists know full well that despots and mosque clerics in particular must walk the Allah line or be counted as traitors. If traitors, they may lie in their own blood.

The number is staggering: 100,000 Muslim Brits who see nothing wrong in what has occurred in the past hours in London

ROBERTS INFLUENCES BUSH IMAGE FOR FUTURE

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

It's not only what the public eventually will think of Judge John Roberts;
it's what Roberts' position will mean to US President George W. Bush.

If Mr. Bush has been wise in choosing a person who will endorse the
expectations of the morally based Red States, fine for Mr. Bush's future.
If not, then Mr. Bush is in trouble with his own kind.

There is much being said this week about Roberts' enigma persona. After
all, at age 50, who is the handsome fellow and what does he really
represent by way of moral positions?

We have learned that his wife is definitely pro-life. Does that mean that
her husband is the same? Not necessarily. Spouses in public life have
often differed, particularly on significant issues. Therefore, no
guarantee there.

We now know that the Roberts family is "practicing Catholic." But what
does that mean today? John F. Kerry regarded himself as "practicing,"
though he attended an extremely spiritually rebellious church in Boston
near his home there. He and the congregation endorsed killing womb babies
while putting the sacramental elements in their mouths. So what
is "practicing" in present-tense "Catholic"?

We have learned that Roberts has made statements for pro-life and for pro-
choice. There are all sorts of interpretations being tossed about since
investigators have done their homework on the statements. In the end, the
final conclusion is that we really don't know for certain what
interpretations to put in cement.

There are those in the pro-life camp who are ecstatic about Roberts. There
are those in the pro-choice camp who are exceptionally fearful about
Roberts. Those who swing far to the either end of the spectrum may be in
for their own surprises of misjudgment.

There were those who banked on Sandra Day O'Connor and David Souter being
in the conservative pocket. Those two proved just the opposite. Could that
happen with Roberts? Yes it could, taking into account reality and the
complexities of life and personality.

Only time will tell what's going on with Roberts. Committee sessions and
further inquiries - the in-depth kind - will give inklings as well.

On the other hand, it just be might that Roberts himself is not absolutely
sure as to who he is in any particular decision-making situation. Most of
us have open-ended vistas as to who we are, except for those of us who
have grounded ourselves for life in a particular moral stance. Now that's
the question regarding Roberts. Is he a part of the latter, particularly
when it comes to abortion?

In the meantime, there are now questions from some Republicans regarding
Mr. Bush and his thinking, his reasons for deciding on Roberts and how all
this process is going to tell on the President's motives. Obviously, the
President is in a most complicated situation in positing nominees for the
Supreme Court. Nevertheless, that's part of the job.

However, taking into account the twists and turns, the Red States have
been waiting too long for anything but one of their own on the highest
court in the land. They don't want to be fooled by another O'Connor or
Souter. They don't want to have to wait out another justice's near-death
or actual-death in order to get their own on the bench.

Consequently, in this tug of war, there is not only much riding on
Roberts; but there are many implications and reverberations awaiting Mr.
Bush. The outcome will reveal much for the nation's good or ill. Likewise,
the outcome will reveal much about the genuineness of both men.

IRRATIONAL DEMAND PERFECTION IN IMPERFECT WORLD: LONDON TRAGEDY

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

A man was shot down in Britain. He was innocent. That is truly a sad situation.

Nevertheless, while legitimate, heartfelt responses are made in follow through to this death, let’s then focus on the real villains who brought about this shooting of an innocent human being.

The villains are fanatic Muslims.

This weekend some peace-loving persons have railed against the British police, PM Tony Blair and anyone else in the picture. Not good. Not reasonable. Not fair.

This is what happens when the world goes off-kilter because of constant badgering from the insane cultish: not everything follows through perfectly. Yet the liberals and thoughtless demand perfection of everyone else but themselves.

Note the Democratic Party in America. It cannot produce one major plan for national improvement and safety. All it can do is rail against the Bush administration for not performing perfectly. That goes on day after day after day. It’s not a one-time thing. It’s an hourly Dem mantra. Thankfully now the general public has become weary of the Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean Et Cetra refrain.

So it is with this shooting of the innocent. When Muslims blow up people and buildings and cars and entire neighborhoods, is it not reasonable to assume that responses will not always be in perfect focus? Is it not logical to grant certain mistakes in trying to quell the continual hellish bombast of the Islamic crazies?

Therefore, when the peace-loving citizens attempt to recapture their culture for sanity, logical persons must expect that in that attempt not everything will go perfectly. There will be mishaps. There will misjudgments. There will be some innocent persons threatened.

That’s the spiritually damaged sphere we live in, people. It’s not heaven. It’s not eternal bliss where sin and death cannot enter.

We live in an Eden tragically come upon by the devil and his demonic cohorts. Since our first parents disobeyed Creator God, much has not gone correctly. There have been too many mistakes and mishaps and misfortunes.

Every generation must learn then exactly what sphere we inhabit. It’s a soul-fallen planet.

Only for the redeemed will perfection come upon their eternities in the New Jerusalem. For the damned, they will experience the ultimate mayhem and misfortunate.

Until then, we grope. We cheer. We lament. It’s all the mix of the present-tense, continuing as long as there is a wobbly world to spin upon its axis.
