Reflections From a Murky Pond

Yeah, before so many states legalized marijuana – and President Trump moving it from Schedule I to Schedule III – I used to hear and read this argument about how people were claiming that marijuana being illegal was proclaiming that God was wrong. But this is the very first time I’ve read this rebuttal to that argument. 😆

And yeah, that’s pretty much right. One of the first things El/Adonai/Yahweh/God did was make the use of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge illegal, with some damn harsh punishment too. 👿

Most people think that they know what happened in the Garden of Eden and why the Fall of Man happened. Consider though that most people have only heard the tale from the Christians’ bible and then only in modern, translated form. What really caused the Fall of Man might have been a bit different from the mainstream report.

Oh yeah! If one considers ancient Jewish texts, especially the Kabbalah, then Adam was first paired with Lilith, not Eve. Also, Lilith, some time after divorcing herself from Adam, became the 1st Consort of Sama’el, who according to some works was the one who tempted Eve, not the Serpent, who was merely Sama’els mount.

So really, that part of Genesis that depicts the Fall of Man may just be a sanitized description of family drama surrounding a pair of Ex’s and their jealous new spouses. 😆

Ah, the consistent illogic and bias of Anti-Semites worldwide, and especially those polluting our nation with their living within its borders. The Muslims of both the West Bank and the Palestinian Authority have long ago codified that the official religion of their areas is Islam and their official language is Arabic, and this is somewhere between A-OK and ignored by the Left, who hate Israel and any Jews who are insufficiently Leftist and critical of Israel’s existence. And, at the same time, Israel being formally a Jewish nation and having Hebrew as its national language is by their accounting racist – an example in their hate-filled minds of how Israel is an apartheid state.

If France Were Jewish…

Face facts; If France were a Jewish nation, Liberals and Progressives would be saying that the Muslims’ massacre of the Charlie Hebdo staff, combined with the recent Muslim riots and looting, shows that France must be divided into two states – one Muslim, one otherwise.

Patrick “Pat” Condell is an Irish-born but British-raised writer, comedian and Atheist internet personality. He’s also one of the few Atheists who I have some respect for because he’s one of the few who will speak against Islam too, as opposed to the more normal Atheist behavior of only attacking Christianity.

In this instance, Mr. Condell pulls no punches in his condemnation of the Liberals’ and Progressives’ rank hypocrisy over Gaza, Hamas, and Israel.

Mr. Condell perfectly summed up the hypocrisy and rabid antisemitism of the Liberals and Progressives, once again insuring that he’ll be the only Atheist that they turn against.

He did something even more important though. He tacitly prescribed a cure for these filth. As the Liberals and Progressives are only willing to voice their hypocrisy and selective moralizing from a suitable safe distance, it behooves we, the People to remove that distance and safety from them. The Liberals and Progressives will be silent as soon as they’re shown by the American people that being otherwise is no longer safe for them or their kin.
