No they didn't. They simply replaced it with State religion which is more loosely formed in some areas and more strongly formed in other areas than what is generally thought of as religion.

I am thinking about this statement

A key ingredient necessary for making gunpowder has been re-classified as a high explosive, making it illegal for any company within the industry to transport or store it as they have for decades.

No ammo right, Homeland gonna rig the vote right.

People want to fight back? when your own ammo runs out, nothing to replace it with.
Maybe I looking at this like a conspiracist and I am wrong, I just see a weird connection to this.

The answer to the ammo problem is, when the company wants to transport it, simply sell it to one of their employees, who transports it personally. The Constitution and Bill of Rights keeps transportation of personal property from being denied. Then sell it on the other end.

This also bypasses a lot of interstate transportation taxes, because transporting personal property over State lines can't be taxed easily.

I read something in Wikipedia as I was reflecting upon the divine and came across utter nonsense. Look what I found under "perception" on the site:

Perception depends on complex functions of the nervous system, but subjectively seems mostly effortless because this processing happens outside conscious awareness

Really?? Hahahaha  Cheesy

Everything I sense happens within my conscious awareness - I assure you.  Wink


... Just because your interpretation of all your conscious awareness is so vague that all you can do is emotionally perceive it...

The first time I meet people who are so firmly convinced that the earth is flat. It's funny to say this, but there are also unique in the crowd who preach this idea.

If you want to talk about preaching an "idea" (its not an idea its factual), just take watch how many times a day an image of ball earth is shown on TV/movies in a day, that"s called indoctrination

True. Once you start looking for it, you'll see it TONS of times per day.

I've pointed this fact out to a few people and they always report back that they are amazed at how many times a day they are shown a globe earth model. They show it so often that we usually don't even see it and register it into our conscious thought. But our subconscious sees it, that's for sure.

Brainwashing. Programming. Indoctrinating. They evil cocksuckers are relentless. They've been practicing their craft for centuries.

Well of course you see globe earth a lot. People are excited about the fact that they know more about our universe than any people in the last 4,000 years at least. Leave it to the flat earthers to have a passion that attempts to take knowledge away.

We can't have another 4-8 years of Obama/clinton no fucking way we need new blood.

Hillary has a slim lead of 3% currently, there's only a couple of months left and anything can happen. If Trump wants to win he should stop being self-destructive few weeks before the election.

That's the point. He wouldn't be Trump if he stopped being self-destructive. Same with Clinton being Clinton. Same with the American people, to vote for either of them.

Can you define the religion ? or let me ask you "the thing that make you hate religion" ?...

OK, now can you think on issues happened due to this definition & that are not based on religious bases (e.g: more than 1 Million people died in Iraq after the american invasion under the name of "bringing democracy & Human rights to this country)...  

OK, now I want you to think about difference between THEORY (religious, social, economic, political... bases) and practices (how people use these theories in order to acheive their benefits).

Now tell me are you hating the Theory or the Practice
I had a fight the other day this guy had the cheek to call my goblin a liar Angry..
I said what do you mean my goblin is a liar it speaks the truth..
He said well prove it where is your goblin i said how dare you ask me that just wait till you die then you will find out..
I was fuming that this guy had the cheek to call my goblin names my goblin is the best ever he made the universe i said to this guy..I swear i wanted to kill him..

Imagine that.  A left-wing news blog not wanting to publish right-leaning political rhetoric.
No doubt he was fired "with cause".  I read the article about Hillary's health and it was very poorly written; laced with immature hyperbole....

What exactly is your problem with writing such as this excerpt from the article.



Hillary Clinton: Stronger Together. How strong? Well, the great woman’s health is excellent, superb even. Her heart and mind one hundred thousand times stronger than the strongest beams of steel that built our great American cities more than a century ago. Her soul a shining exemplar of selflessness, service, and humility, her footing sound... wait, are we talking about the same person here?!

The same Hillary Clinton who recently became the latest unintentional star of YouTube, with a truly endless upload stream of videos purporting to show Hillary Clinton wildly seizing up when several reporters begin questioning her at once? Yes, the same Hillary Clinton who became the star of this Paul Joseph Watson video, attracting 3,554,177 views since it was uploaded on August 4th:

They're all meant for businesses. you could earn millions if you are a psychotic and be a mortician as well.

Morticians and their associates are some of the most compassionate, caring people around. They have to be, because the relatives and friends of their customers would see through them if they weren't, and they would lose business.

The Business of God is making human life and saving it from itself. God doesn't care how His workers are defined, even as psychotics. God wants salvation for the people He created. And if a person is a psychotic mortician, the job just might get done better. It's business... God's business.

The one-worlders don't have any choice. If they want to control the whole world, they have to move now. Why? Because Internet (communications), transportation, uncontrolled money movement (Bitcoin), and general trade between people of different nations, are making for freedom. If the one-worlders don't do it now, they will lose their chance for any foreseeable future.

If they can't solidify their control over the whole world right now, the closest that they might be able to come is to crash everything. At least then they can start picking up the pieces, although it might set them back a few hundred years.


As far as things go for average people, we seem to be coming close to breakthroughs that might allow us to live for several hundred years. If the breakthroughs don't come fast enough, or can't be sustained during a crash back into barbarism (nuclear winter), we are lost... personally I mean.

Be concerned. Do what you can. But don't go crazy trying to do what you can't about the situation. Relax and stop fretting.

Marijuana lowers baby boomer death rates, while alcohol causes massive increase





The baby boomer generation is literally drinking itself to death at a time when medical marijuana should be – and could be – saving their lives.

As reported by the UK's Daily Mail, boomers born in the post-World War II period between 1946 and 1964 are distinct from previous generations because of their far great indulgence in hedonistic, aesthetic lifestyles, and this is particularly evident in their drinking habits.

Some believe that boomers drink at greater volumes than previous generations because during their formative years advertising for alcohol and tobacco was much more widespread. It could also be due to the fact that boomers have it much better than their parents, for the most part.

Now aged between 51 and 70, boomers' drinking habits are leading many to a premature grave. Between 1992 and 2006, average weekly alcohol consumption for boomers aged 45–64 increased by a staggering 85 percent. That compares with a 50 percent increase in drinking for those aged 65 and older, and a 45 percent increase in the 16–24 age group.

Follow-up studies have revealed similar findings, the Daily Mail reported. Between 2005 and 2013, for instance, the percentage of males consuming eight or more alcohol units – which is equal to four pints of normal strength beer – on any given day over the previous week changed by just 5 percent, and that was in the over-65 age group.
 

Loneliness and alcohol kill

By comparison, the drinking rate fell by 30 percent among 16–24 year-olds, 19 percent in the 22–44 year-old age group, and 12 percent for those between 45 and 64 years of age.

Additional data contains identical drinking patterns among baby boomers, the paper said. Between 2001 and 2014, alcohol-related deaths in England skyrocketed by more than 150 percent, while alcohol-related admissions to the hospital rose faster among the boomer generation than any other.

Admissions for behavioral and mental disorders attributed to alcohol abuse are now higher than those for alcoholic liver disease in those over the age of 60.

The Election Has Been Hacked: The Dismal Reality of Having No Real Electoral Choices





"Free election of masters does not abolish the masters or the slaves." Herbert Marcuse

The FBI is worried: foreign hackers have broken into two state election databases.

The Department of Homeland Security is worried: the nation's voting system needs greater protection against cyberattacks.

I, on the other hand, am not overly worried: after all, the voting booths have already been hacked by a political elite comprised of Republicans and Democrats who are determined to retain power at all costs.

The outcome is a foregone conclusion: the police state will win and "we the people" will lose.

The damage has already been done.

The DHS, which has offered to help "secure" the nation's elections, has already helped to lock down the nation.

Remember, the DHS is the agency that ushered in the domestic use of surveillance drones, expanded the reach of fusion centers, stockpiled an alarming amount of ammunition, urged Americans to become snitches through a "see something, say something" campaign, oversaw the fumbling antics of TSA agents everywhere, militarized the nation's police, spied on activists and veterans, distributed license plate readers and cell phone trackers to law enforcement agencies, contracted to build detention camps, carried out military drills and lockdowns in American cities, conducted virtual strip searches of airline passengers, established Constitution-free border zones, funded city-wide surveillance cameras, and generally turned our republic into a police state.

So, no, I'm not falling for the government's scare tactics about Russian hackers.

I'm not losing a night's sleep over the thought that this election might by any more rigged than it already is.

And I'm not holding my breath in the hopes that the winner of this year's particular popularity contest will save us from government surveillance, weaponized drones, militarized police, endless wars, SWAT team raids, red light cameras, asset forfeiture schemes, overcriminalization, profit-driven private prisons, graft and corruption, or any of the other evils that masquerade as official government business these days.

What I've come to realize is that Americans want to engage in the reassurance ritual of voting.

They want to believe that politics matter.

They want to be persuaded that there's a difference between the Republicans and Democrats (there's not).

They will swear that Barack Obama has been an improvement on George W. Bush (he has not).

They are convinced that Hillary Clinton's values are different from Donald Trump's (with both of them, money talks).

Most of all, they want to buy into the fantasy that when we elect a president, we're getting someone who truly represents "we the people" rather than the corporate state (in fact, in the oligarchy that is the American police state, an elite group of wealthy donors is calling the shots).

The sad truth is that it doesn't matter who wins the White House, because they all work for the same boss: Corporate America. Understanding this, many corporations hedge their bets on who will win the White House by splitting their donations between Democratic and Republican candidates.

Politics is a game, a joke, a hustle, a con, a distraction, a spectacle, a sport, and for many devout Americans, a religion. It is a political illusion aimed at persuading the citizenry that we are free, that our vote counts, and that we actually have some control over the government when in fact, we are prisoners of a police state.

In other words, it's a sophisticated ruse aimed at keeping us divided and fighting over two parties whose priorities are exactly the same so that we don't join forces and do what the Declaration of Independence suggests, which is to throw the whole lot out and start over.

It's no secret that both parties support endless war, engage in out-of-control spending, ignore the citizenry's basic rights, have no respect for the rule of law, are bought and paid for by Big Business, care most about their own power, and have a long record of expanding government and shrinking liberty. Most of all, both parties enjoy an intimate, incestuous history with each other and with the moneyed elite that rule this country.

Despite the jabs the candidates volley at each other for the benefit of the cameras, they're a relatively chummy bunch away from the spotlight. Moreover, despite Congress' so-called political gridlock, our elected officials seem to have no trouble finding common ground when it's time to collectively kowtow to the megacorporations, lobbyists, defense contractors and other special interest groups to whom they have pledged their true allegiance.

So don't be fooled by the smear campaigns and name-calling or drawn into their politics of hate. They're just useful tactics that have been proven to engage voters and increase voter turnout while keeping the citizenry at each other's throats.

We're in trouble, folks.

We are living in a fantasy world carefully crafted to resemble a representative democracy.

It used to be that the cogs, wheels and gear shifts in our government machinery worked to keep our republic running smoothly. However, without our fully realizing it, the mechanism has changed. Its purpose is no longer to keep our republic running smoothly. To the contrary, this particular contraption's purpose is to keep the corporate police state in power. Its various parts are already a corrupt part of the whole.

They also tend to skip over the gruesome, blood thirsty, vengeful, violent, pornographic, misogynistic, homophobic verses when reading verses out loud. If Christians read their Bible, they would know that God is not pro-life, so it makes no sense to oppose abortion. There is a verse in Hosea where he commands the blood thirsty warriors of God to rip pregnant women open with swords, dashing their unborn into pieces.

Anyone who rejects God, and especially Jesus salvation, will go to Hell. Hell will be a lot worse than "gruesome, blood thirsty, vengeful, violent, pornographic, misogynistic, homophobic verses." It will be way worse than righteous warriors of God ripping open "pregnant women open with swords" and killing their unborn children.

The whole Bible, including Hosea, is a warning to all of us. God doesn't want it to happen, but by our sin and unbelief, we are twisting God into doing... Hell.

Turn, while you have time.
