The invention of the trinity by Tertullian in the third century, and the millions and millions of unsuccessful attempts to explain it, and yet the universal sacred adherence to it—is very much like the invention of evolution by Darwin in the nineteenth century, and the thousands of unsuccessful attempts to prove it, and yet the universal sacred adherence to it as a fact.
THINKING SEVENTY
Been thinking about this lately:
Seventy is not an excuse—just a fact.
WHAT WILL TRIGGER U.S. DICTATORSHIP?
The subject nobody is discussing—How could a dictator take control of the United States of America?
– – –
Will widespread hunger trigger dictatorship?
Hunger is the result of dictatorship.
– – –
Will invasion trigger dictatorship?
It depends on how fast the dictator makes his move.
Invasion is unnecessary—the current dictator-in-progress may surrender to avoid invasion.
– – –
Will infrastructure failure trigger dictatorship?
All bets are off on this one—depends on the motive and the timing of an EMP or hacking the grid.
Such a failure will have no winners—everyone dead—only natural resources left, free for the taking—very difficult wilderness, like 400 years ago.
– – –
To the above questions—maybe—but these could happen without a dictatorship.
So, what will trigger a U.S. dictatorship?
Debt is the one thing that only a dictatorship can deal with.
We have heard for a long time that it is “impossible to pay” our national debt.
Those racking up more debt don’t plan on paying back the debt.
– – –
So how does a dictator deal with impossible national debt?
1-Enslave the people.
2-Confiscate all assets—money, property, production, freedom.
3-Starting with the military, cancel all domestic resistance.
4-Universal poverty (overnight) leaves domestic creditors with no power to demand payment.
5-Universal poverty (overnight) leaves foreign creditors with nothing to go after for payment.
– – –
Then, debt is covered by “What difference does it make now, anyway?”
– – –
But, this is America—it can’t happen here.
Oh, now you think American exceptionalism will revive?
It did revive from 2017-2020.
It was killed in 2021.
– – –
USA—welcome to historical dictatorial reality.
And this time, no Allied Forces in the world are available and willing to save the day, save the world, save freedom.
– – –
T E X A S , where are you, NOW?
Texas can’t save America—stop trying (in Washington) ! ! !
But, Texas can save freedom—for Texans—and others (but only those willing to become Texans).
TURTLES – – – AMERICANS
“I like how slow they move, because it doesn’t stop them from getting somewhere.”
“They [baby turtles crossing the beach to the ocean] can only hide for so long. Sooner or later they have to start living.”—–from Retreat To Paradise movie
They [Americans] can only hide for so long. Sooner or later they have to start living.
WALK A TIGHTROPE – – – OR TAKE PERSECUTION
If Christians today, and Christian leaders today, try to walk a tightrope to avoid negative attention or persecution now, it is very possible they might not be a target for serious persecution later.
Because—if we are not bold to speak about Jesus when the price is small, it is doubtful we will speak boldly for Jesus when the price is high.
What is the price of compatibility ?
But God . . .
“Whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself the enemy of God.”
COMMITTED TO BE CAREFUL
All the talk of saying and doing everything ‘right’ becomes ridiculous in the face of reality.
What difference does it make to say that Trump should not have said fraud was a fact, without the evidence?
“Without the evidence”?
The evidence abounded, but never saw the light of day.
Careful?
The other side was not careful—they did not have to look at the evidence.
The “fact of fraud” didn’t matter once they ‘won’ (stole) the election.
There comes a point where evil builds to the breaking point for those on the side of good.
Sometimes/often that breaking point is the only way that correction/revolution happens.
‘Carefulness’ would have criticized the Boston Tea Party—and we would have no USA.
The Boston Tea Party was the catalyst for support—action—even violence to win our freedom.
Logic, reasoning, words have their limits.
High intellect and profound presentations make impressive cases.
But just like telling points in the debate seldom change the mind of the atheist and others—likewise the careful coaching of the Monday quarterback does not stop the tyrant from invading.
That is what just happened in America.
Careful cowards in Washington, D.C. and the church got us here.
Careful words of careful reasoning will change nothing now.
American envoys to parliament in the eighteenth century became history.
British Prime Minister Chamberlain’s negotiations with Hitler in the twentieth century became history.
A million Americans in World War II, with violence, stopped tyranny, preserved freedom, and defined history.
In America today we do not think it has come to
that.
IT HAS !
Back to reasoning and logic—and history.
Does anyone think that conservatives or republicans (non rino) going back to Congress now, can make it worth the plane ticket?
“Wait and see” works just fine for the other side.
I know I will lose some ‘careful’ thinkers with my final line, next, but I hope to gain and inspire freedom fighters.
From a speech at an all-day second amendment rally at the Confederate Park in Belton, Texas on February 23, 2013:
“I believe that Texas and Texans have a greater responsibility than we realize to be the last bastion of freedom in the world.”
We must understand that now—and act on it—while we have time—before it is too late.
– – – – –
I respect those who have excellent, intellectual reasoning to deal with every argument against the truth.
I don’t have the mental capacity or the good memory to use all their fine points to debate my acquaintances.
So I do the best I can, particularly in writing.
I hope this is a word for thought, and not just something to counter and move on.

CHINA CLOSES CHURCHES
China closes churches—By force, in China.
China closes churches—By covid, in America
GREEN, WHERE ARE YOU NOW?
COLD CANCELS GREEN—literally.
We just had the record cold week in Texas.
Zero degrees actual temperature in the middle of Texas.
Plus a lot of snow and ice.
Not a solar panel or wind turbine has anything to offer.
Only oil and gas can get Texans warm in this.
And only oil and gas will do so for many decades to come.
And we have plenty of it.
So, Washington, leave Texas to Texans!
CORONA VACCINE CHIP
Can’t live without it ?
Don’t leave earth with it !

Wait and see if that becomes true.
Better yet, don’t wait and see.
