Hell-Bound (Image Of The Beast, Two.)

 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

If any man have an ear, let him hear.

He that leads into captivity shall go into captivity: he that kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he speaks as a dragon.

And he exercises all the power of the first beast before him, and causes the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

And he doeth great wonders, so that he makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

And deceive them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

And he caused all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. ~Revelation 13, King James Bible.

Some say finding God is a glorious thing. They're wrong. It's dangerous. You spend your whole life in a world of men. But when you finally see his power, his greatness, other men fall out of view. Because you're so focused on him, you can barely see them from the corners of your eyes. You lose sight of them. ~Augustus Hill, from the HBO series Oz, S1.E3 "God's Chillin'."

I saw this last night.

Apparently, Trump really does think he's Jesus.

When is enough going to be enough with this shit??

I'm just gonna say it again, this bullshit is blasphemy and it's wrong and you shouldn't need somebody like me to tell you that. 

It's the kind of thing that's wrong, in my view, to even tolerate. Not because I'm so devout or anything, but I look at stuff like this as disrespectful to Believers and to faith in general much less to God or Jesus specifically.

Of course Trump is a narcissist and doesn't care about anybody but himself...or even really care about himself in any kind of conventional way.

It looks to me like he's realized he's not gonna bend the world to his will and he's having the same kind of Personality Disorder crash-out my ex-wife had after I left, albeit much worse.

Thankfully, I haven't seen anybody saying they support this fucking garbage.

The motherfucker posted it anyway. Yeah, I'd give that some thought.

He's clearly not very connected to reality, and I have no doubt that the Prosperity Gospel liars he surrounds himself with...people like Paula White...are fucking feeding this delusion.

Because that's what Those Fucking People do.

Whether they see profit in it, or simply for the purpose of causing chaos and drama by itself, which is something a lot of these motherfuckers are addicted to (Stuff like this is a big part of why I'm divorced.)

We've got to take the neighborhood back. We've got to go in there. Just forget telling your child to go to the Peace Corps. It's right around the corner. It's standing on the corner. It can't speak English. It doesn't want to speak English. I can't even talk the way these people talk. "Why you ain't where you is go." I don't know who these people are. And I blamed the kid until I heard the mother talk. Then I heard the father talk. This is all in the house. You used to talk a certain way on the corner and you got into the house and switched to English. Everybody knows it's important to speak English except these knuckleheads. You can't land a plane with "why you ain't…". You can't be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth. There is no Bible that has that kind of language. Where did these people get the idea that they're moving ahead on this? Well, they know they're not, they're just hanging out in the same place, five or six generations sitting in the projects when you're just supposed to stay there long enough to get a job and move out. ~Bill Cosby, the "Pound Cake" speech.

Part of it is those CHUDs are mostly narcissist assholes just like Trump is.

Also, mostly, they're stupid.

Now, Imma tell you an uncomfortable truth; If you believe in Trump, if you support this kind of Idolatrous Garbage, you're going to Hell unless you Repent and do some serious work on making it right.

Like I said just yesterday at this point the Right's promotion of cultic mentalities and stupidity at this point is starting to scan to me as Soul-Murder on a mass scale.

Like, who even does this shit??

Eli Sunday: Daniel, I'm asking if you'd like to have business with the Church of the Third Revelation in developing this lease on young Bandy's thousand acre tract. I'm offering you to drill on one of the great undeveloped fields of Little Boston!  

Daniel Plainview: I'd be happy to work with you.

Eli Sunday: You would? Yes, yes, of course. That’s wonderful.

Daniel Plainview: But there is one condition for this work.

Eli Sunday: All right.

Daniel Plainview: I'd like you to tell me that you are a false prophet. I'd like you to tell me that you are, and have been, a false prophet, and that God is a superstition.

~From the film There Will Be Blood.

And what purpose could there even be for it that isn't destructive??

I'll wait.

This type of bullshit is the logical result of a whole bunch of dumbasses basically saying "Trump Is God" for the last eleven years or so.

If he didn't believe that bullshit before, sooner or later he was going to start.

Again, you either believe in freedom or you don't, and you're willing to fight for it or you're not.

Imma add to that, either you believe in God or Trump at this point, you cannot have faith in both. No man can serve two masters.

I don't know if it's Orban losing in Hungary that sent his ass over the fucking falls or what, but this crap has got to stop. It's got to be stopped.

Слава Україна!

When men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing: they believe in everything. ~Umberto Eco

The martyrs of history were not fools, and our honored dead who gave their lives to stop the advance of the Nazis didn't die in vain. Where, then, is the road to peace? Well, it's a simple answer after all. You and I have the courage to say to our enemies, "There is a price we will not pay." There is a point beyond which they must not advance. This is the meaning in the phrase of Barry Goldwater's "peace through strength." Winston Churchill said that "the destiny of man is not measured by material computation. When great forces are on the move in the world, we learn we are spirits — not animals." And he said, "There is something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty. ~Ronald Reagan
