Clueless Emma

Phrase of the Day

‎"The man who refuses to judge, who neither agrees nor disagrees, who declares that there are no absolutes and believes that he escapes responsibility, is the man responsible for all the blood that is now spilled in the world. Reality is an absolute, existence is an absolute, a speck of dust is an...absolute and so is a human life . . ."    ~Ayn Rand

Carl Jung: Psychologist or Sorcerer?

If Burney's assertion is correct, and the human race isn't sinful, then the Bible is nothing more than myths and fables -- and Jesus was a nut job for declaring He was the Son of God who came into the world to die for the sins of all mankind. Jesus clearly taught that we are sinners, with a capital S, and "fall short of the glory of God." Sin was the reason Jesus went to the cross. His death was payment for mankind's sin debt. Thus He threw open the gates of heaven, and all who believe in Him will be reconciled to God. If it's true that we are merely "Spiritual Beings having a human experience" as Burney claims, the Son of God would have had no reason to leave His throne in heaven and come to Earth. Which is Burney's whole point! If we're not sinners, we have no need of a Savior! ~Marsha West

Marsha West -- A subtle and dangerous shift in Christianity

A SUBTLE AND DANGEROUS SHIFT IN CHRISTIANITY

via www.newswithviews.com

The Bible does not teach that God’s people are to go into a self-induced altered-state of consciousness to commune with Him. Again, meditating day and night does not mean we are to look for the “God within,” as Eastern mystics and occultist do. For the Christian to be involved in any sort of pagan practice is strictly forbidden by God! This is because God opposes paganism's polytheism and blatant immorality. There is no getting around the fact that polytheism and immorality are the pagan way.

Michelle Malkin » Dealergate, social justice & the Obama job-killing machine; Update: The race factor

In sum, the inspector general found: “(A)t a time when the country was experiencing the worst economic downturn in generations and the government was asking its taxpayers to support a $787 billion stimulus package designed primarily to preserve jobs, Treasury made a series of decisions that may have substantially contributed to the accelerated shuttering of thousands of small businesses and thereby potentially adding tens of thousands of workers to the already lengthy unemployment rolls — all based on a theory and without sufficient consideration of the decisions’ broader economic impact.”

Morning Bell: The Obama Tax Tsunami is Here | The Foundry: Conservative Policy News.

The American people are already well aware of President Barack Obama’s historic expansion of government spending: his $862 billion economic stimulus that has completely failed to keep unemployment below 8% as promised; his still-expanding health care law which the Congressional Budget Office now admits will cost more than $1 trillion; and an Obama budget that increases government spending by $12,000 per household. But all that spending is just the first half of President Obama’s game plan.

10 Common Errors “Spell Check” Won’t Catch

While we can rely on a spell checker to catch glaring errors, a computer can’t pick up on all careless mistakes, especially if the word could be correct in a different context. Often word misuse is our mistake. The English language is full of homonyms, or words that have different meanings but sound and look similar, which makes it easy to confuse proper usage. For instance, verbally, you might not even notice the difference between “your” and “you’re.” But in print, the error can lead the reader to perceive you as less intelligent than you are. For this reason, it's important to spell check and proofread your documents, especially for the following common misuses, which are so easy to make, you might even have to check your document a couple times to catch them.

» NAACP: ‘Useful Idiots’ of Liberal Racism

Liberal Racism does not believe in One Nation under God. They believe in a Nation of subjects organized into collective groups under which they shall rule, not govern, in a secular humanist based society.

Indivisible, Liberal Racism does not believe in “e pluribus unim”, they prefer a balkanized America where they can pit us against each other through their manipulated messages….such as Tea Party racism.

Liberal racism does not believe in Liberty and Justice for All, they believe in freedom defined by a ruling class elite while creating more victims who become dependent upon their dishonest benevolence. Justice in the world of Liberal Racism means social and economic justice rooted in a principle of leveling, which founding father Samuel Adams spoke against. Al Sharpton defined justice as everyone having the same in every home in America…..government engineering of results and outcomes.

The mid-term elections of 2 November 2010 comes down to “One Nation under God Indivisible with Liberty and Justice for All” or the concept of One Nation under the proprietor of victimization Al Sharpton, a simpleton crony of Liberal Racism. Which shall you choose?

Confirmed: Obama authorizes assassination of U.S. citizen

Today, both The New York Times and The Washington Post confirm that the Obama White House has now expressly authorized the CIA to kill al-Alwaki no matter where he is found, no matter his distance from a battlefield.  I wrote at length about the extreme dangers and lawlessness of allowing the Executive Branch the power to murder U.S. citizens far away from a battlefield (i.e., while they're sleeping, at home, with their children, etc.) and with no due process of any kind.  I won't repeat those arguments -- they're here and here -- but I do want to highlight how unbelievably Orwellian and tyrannical this is in light of these new articles today.

5 Signs Sharia Law Is Coming to a Town Near You | NewsReal Blog

It was primarily Christians who sought freedom of worship by coming to the New World, but since then America has flourished with just about every hybrid of religion you can imagine. And we manage to get along pretty well. Of course we must ‘endure’ overly nice people with tracts and flowers or those who woo you with green Jell-O. But bottom line, if we don’t like it, we ignore it, we shut the door, we abstain. It’s our right as Americans because we’re free to worship…or not.

And that is just the “cap” half of President Obama’s Cap and Ban approach. The first Obama oil drilling ban already caused some oil rigs to leave U.S. waters entirely.

"Teachers contribute a disproportionate amount of money in the political process in Oregon... It's out of line with other groups and citizens in Oregon. As a result, teachers have a policy grip on legislation and other kinds of administrative decisions at the state level."

Is he the wrong man for you?

Trust your gut feelings about the men you date. If someone exhibits actions or behaviors that just don’t sit right with you, politely say, “It was nice meeting you” and leave. You might disappoint your date, you might get frustrated, but if you don’t walk away when you first get that feeling… you start making excuses. Then that second date turns into a third and a fourth. Suddenly, out of boredom or trying to be polite, you find that you’re dating the wrong guy.

Historian Newt Gingrich Gives the Washington Post a Much-Needed History Lesson | NewsReal Blog

The Declaration does not assert that our rights come from a contract with one another. The Declaration explicitly affirms that our rights come from our Creator and are unalienable. Ironically, the article stated precisely the historic falsehood that is the basis of the modern judicial effort to create a secular America. This secular interpretation is simply historically false, and the facts are profoundly different.

This distinction is at the heart of Abraham Lincoln’s emphasis on the Declaration of Independence in arguing against slavery. If our rights come from God then sovereignty is personal and we the people lend power to the government. That is the most radical recentering of power in human history. It is the heart of American exceptionalism.

Advice for the single ladies

I find this wisdom especially imperative to share after thoroughly enjoying a home-brewed ale.

Do not date a man who:

1) smokes, even if he says he's trying to quit. Well, unless you smoke, too. Mostly it's irritating to be left alone in restaurants and bars during smoke breaks. Who even smokes anymore in Oregon? And how many families do you know who all smoke? Try going out with them--they all end up outside, standing together socializing while you sit inside waiting alone. It's enough to make you take up the habit just so you can converse a little. You might as well--when they insist you join them so you don't feel left out, you'll end up stinking anyway.

2) says he is going to lose weight and get into shape. He most likely will not. Ok, we know he won't. He is in complete denial that he needs to lose 50 lbs. Those once-a-year uniform slacks have not shrunk, and the Starbucks lattes are not helping (but don't say anything or you will be accused of having negative thoughts! Yes, we know we get accused of that anyway, no matter what we say or do. Still. Don't point out the 5 bazillion fat calories. Trust me on this.) 

3) has a gambling addiction. Well, DUUUH. But he is cute with dimples when he smiles, and we want to think he is honest when he says he is "cured." Do not believe it. Hide your money.

4) acts more like a woman when communicating--ie--"I was so hurt when you didn't read the entire 5 page article I sent you last week, even though I didn't say I wanted you to read it. You don't care about me!" [[[Shudder]]] Trust me on this one. I think I just dated myself in a former, less self-aware life. Truly frightening.

5) is incapable of being alone and runs to stay with his adult kids or friends every single weekend if you can't be with him. And sometimes when you can. It is weird. Kids grow up and move away to start their own lives. Sleeping on their couches, especially when they have started their own immoral lives too early, living in sin at 21 with babies out of wedlock, encircled by cigarette smoke, is just....weird and not the life we want. And don't say anything. (See #2.)

6) It was always someone else's fault in his past, and it's yours when you are around. And also when you're not. And even when you exemplify what any other man would be thrilled to find in a woman. He is simply incapable of giving of himself. And remember--he is your bitchy past self. You'll never measure up. Set him free to criticize and whine about another woman. You really do not need this.

And, God forbid, if you find the man who personifies all these issues, I'm sure he will be quite polite. The only problem is you may prefer sincerity.

"Ensuring humane treatment of detainees is one thing. This, on the other hand, is beyond ridiculous. Detention centers should be clean, safe and temporary way stations for illegal immigrants on their way out the door. These proposals turn the immigration detention centers into permanent Dave & Buster’s-style comfort zones for illegal aliens biding their time until the next amnesty. Dancing lessons? Game halls? This is an invitation for abuse — and a recipe for exploitation by smugglers and drug cartels. Open-borders and civil liberties activists will end up endangering DHS/ICE workers — and the rest of us — under the guise of “immigrant human rights."

Judging Others: Do We Have the Right?

I believe there is Absolute Truth. We have a reason to live, a mission to follow. Many like to think we are to go through life being nonjudgmental, to accept everyone and every life choice with open arms. True, the bible tells us not to be hypocritical in judgment. But we are also told to try every spirit, to see if it is of God. If it is not, we cannot accept it into our everyday life. Tolerance is not acceptance!

It amazes me that so many people automatically label someone with an unwavering opinion as a hater or as unChristlike. It is NOT hateful to judge something as unbiblical or as something that should not be accepted--it is NOT wrong to tell a friend that they have the freedom to choose what they will in life, but that they will not be accepted into my little world while they are participating in said activities. We have forgotten what boundaries are. It is okay to say no. It is okay to "be ye separate." I am a fierce proponent of individual freedoms--and they include the freedom to judge whether or not I will allow people to actively participate in my life.

My rules for determining acceptance into my personal life:

1) If I cry more than laugh when we talk, you're out.
2) If I feel guilty more than joyful when we're together, you're out.
3) If I feel more unsure about what you're really thinking and doing more than I feel secure knowing you are open and honest at all times, you're out.
4) If I have to walk on eggshells because I never know what will set you off, I'm out.
5) When you berate me more than compliment me; display continual personal hypocrisy in your judgment of me; or act differently when we're around family and/or friends than when we're alone, you're out.

I tolerate everyone. I only accept those who will not hurt me. Isn't that the way it should be for all of us?
