Any chance that we won't outspend our debt limit again in a few years if we raise it? Zip, Nope, and None!

Do we actually believe that there is any chance that we won't outspend our debt limit again in a few years if we raise it?

This is not the same as paying our bills, as the President says because when we pay our bills, debt should decrease.

This is the exact opposite of what is happening now. Now we are running up our bills with no end or hint of responsibility in sight if we write ourselves another blank check in 2 weeks and a mid-October fiasco probably coming up.

Whoever would come up with such a smoke screen idea that paying our bills is merely keeping track of the debt and not paying the debt down is a filthy liar!  Oh yeah!  That would be President Obama, and possibly the Legislature, which should call the President on his lies, as a responsibility of the checks and balances our government is supposed to work on.

Smoke screens on the economy.  Smoke screens on the governments debt.  Failure to work toward a fiscally responsible goal.  I bet the death of Osama bin Laden was a smoke screen too given all the bull our President tells us.

What Is The Worst Kind of Corruption?

Judges hold the key to freedom.  Police are sometimes overzealous and have guns.  Politicians could sodomize each other for all I care. I don't believe politicians have had any sort of sovereignty since Obama took office, not like what happened when Bush Jr. was in office.

People feared Shrub because he was borderline dumb and he had the legislature by their balls. Obama may have some accomplishments, yet some of them I imagine are faked, such as the slaughter of Osama bin Laden.  President Obama's asshole commentary on the economy leads me to suspect that because it is so full of distortions that it is essentially lies.

Politician or judge depends on who is in the position of power that makes for the worst kind of corruption.  Serving on the Supreme Court is a life sentence, and under our borderline corrupt Supreme Court, there is potential for some really bad decisions.  However, I think 5 to 4, that vote that wins usually reflects my opinion though most opinions I agree with and they are better than 5 to 4 decisions.  If that wasn’t the case I think that would be very horrible.

Under Bush Jr. we had the horrible Patriot act and the even more horrible Patriot II act.  I remember those times being paranoid.  The legislature was in power then, and I feared them for no other reason than the amount of poor decisions they made.  That was when the economy was in a downward spiral.  Currently, President Obama is doing a good job remaining composure, such that the Union hasn’t crumbled.

Under Obama though perhaps I should fear him like a leader, I just don't.  As far as a judge goes, I have only been called to do jury duty once and they didn't take my panel. That is the closest I have been to a courtroom in my life.

I do know what it is like to be locked up for mental illness.  After a few weeks it got boring.  I felt trapped.  However, I would liken that sort of lifestyle to living in a city.  I don't like the city; all eyes are watching so it would seem.

Syria and Russia - Not Our Allies, Not Even Close

I don't care who does what on whom in Syria because both the Regime and the Rebels are our enemies.

The whole deal with Russia is a distraction. Russia is not our ally, so what will Russia do during chemical weapons inspections; flip a quarter. The odds are 50/50 and not only that, they shouldn't matter.

It shouldn't matter because we shouldn't be the world's policeman when we are starkly in debt.  We need to stop making excuses for ouselves to raise the debt ceiling, and get things under fiscal control. 

I am surprised that President Obama is still pushing for war despite Russia's action.  I would have thought that he was looking for a way to back out of the chemicals weapons corner that he put himself in.

One of my Facebook friends posted the following truth that I think is very important before we go into this war, and why we should not go to war, even for a short period.

Mish Shedlock notes the quote of the day goes to Abby Martin who says "We're killing Syrians to Show Syria that Killing Syrians is Wrong.". I (my Facebook friend) would modify the quote slightly to: "We're killing Syrians to Show Syria that IMPROPERLY Killing Syrians is Wrong."

Judaism and Creationism: What Came First, The Chicken or The Egg?

It is said that Adam and Eve were created with the appearance of being 20 years old in the Garden of Eden.  How can this be so?  If Gd created the universe with the appearance of age, isn’t that deceptive?

The very meaning of deception is to create something that looks a certain way such that one would only think that it would be a certain age through analysis.  In the answer, there is an unfolding of the very meaning of age.

The world was made not with the appearance of age, but with the appearance of perfection, because the L-rd Gd would only create something perfect, and leave it to us to keep it that way.  And, He promises that eventually earth will be like it was in Gan Eden.  The only requirement is massive amounts of righteousness.  Gd did not make a world where Adam would look at a tree and think, wow that tree looks old.  That was not the intent.  Gd’s intent was for Adam to look at a tree and think, not about its age, but just simply, “Wow!!!  That looks perfect!!!”

We know this because the L-rd Gd is good.  His ways are worthy of emulation.  Because Gd is good we can know that the world was not created to deceive us that the world was old, and aged.  That would be an action not attributable to a Mighty Deity.  The Almighty Gd created the world to look perfect in an ageless way.  We humans often place too much emphasis on the beginning and ending of things such as life cycles.

Torah does not lead us to believe that things were created with the appearance of age.  However, Torah does lead us to believe that the world was created in a state of perfection, Gan Eden.  Things where not created with the appearance of age; they were created in their ideal state; something time does not know.

Chances are that we didn’t grow up in the Garden of Eden.  The world we grew up in was imperfect.  However, that perfect way that we probably never knew was outside of age because usually we associate age with death and dying, but yet the Garden of Eden had neither of these things.

In Judaism, our souls are eternal, such that birth is merely a state of the soul.  As time passes, we gain deeper understanding to the world at birth, so it is true that birth is an earlier state of life, and that infants aren’t born with much more than they need to know, and primarily what they do know revolves around motivating parents or care takers to feed them and change their dirty diapers, etc., through crying.  However, it is such that before we were on earth we did not know of age, and we came down to earth, and suddenly time became a very important issue of our lives; in fact for most of us, too important!  Our slavery to the clock in fact is one sign that we live in a fallen and imperfect world.  Gan Eden didn’t last long!

So, looking at a perspective; did the chicken come first or the egg is that chickens were created before they came into being, before time, as what we would call before an earthly state, but that the first chicken came to earth at a state of the universe known as the Garden of Eden where everything was perfect.

It is such that probably Gd probably started with a flock of chickens some with their eggs ready to hatch in the Garden of Eden with grandiose splendor.

2nd Why I Say That I Am the Messiah

A part of the reason why I cleave to the idea of being the Messiah is because I have bipolar. I gave up on the cyclic idea of, "Now I am manic and the Messiah, and then when I am not feeling so good saying that I am not the Messiah." There will always come another time when I think that I am the Messiah, so I will own it and I will wear it on my soul.

Does Kerry Have A Conscience?

I can't believe Kerry is on board with bombing the Syrians. I would have expected him to resign. I voted him for President. This action, bombing the Syrians, is something he is saying is something that only someone with a conscience would do.

The way I see it is that the people of Syria had no good choice! Most of the people we are going to bomb had no other choice but to be in the Syrian military or be a rebel. Those in the military were just following orders where the price for disobedience was death. The other alternative, being a rebel, was never really an alternative at all, as that also carried with it the death penalty. Either side you may choose if you are a Syrian is a death penalty because President Obama is only going to be kicking Syria, our enemy, when they are down. This military action by us is far from courageous.

Napoleon's quote: "When you're enemy is making mistakes, don't stop them in the middle."

“ We need to see ourselves as basic miracles.” – Virginia Satir - My Commentary

To look at reality and think that there are no miracles leads one to believe that everything is absurd. "Why would there be anything at all, a universe, etc," I would say to someone who doesn’t believe in miracles.

On a deeper scale, not only is there a universe, but the universe is so vastly complex, just as our bodies are vastly complex, which can only be the result of intent by a fundamental Creator, one who does not belong to time, and one who did not have to be created, Himself.

The greatest minds of modernity have dedicated themselves in whole and in full to grasping even parts human body through medicine. Clearly, if you took your body, and placed a small pin, or thumbtack, upon some part of it, the vast quantity of meaningful knowledge to our humanity could be represented by the part of the skin that the pin does not occupy.

How the universe came into being is another matter, I believe that there wasn’t a first other than what God uttered, and those 10 divine utterances in Genesis created the world. Thus, it is such that the universe is the breath of God, a God that created us miraculously. That is, everything is the breath of God, both good and bad.

Let's Stay Away From The Syria Hell Hole! (random thoughts)

Alright, so Assad, the commander chief of Syria ordered the use of chemical weapons through his troops. What were his troops supposed to say? "No?" They would probably be shot by a firing squad for disobeying Assad. So, what is Obama's response? Bomb the heck out of troops that really had no other choice than to use the chemical weapons. WTF What are we getting out of attacking the Assad's troops?

Don't forget China backs Iran and Syria. It could be devastating to us if China dumped our debt.

Obama is a man that lives by his word. He foolishly made chemical weapons the line of demarcation. If he gets his way, by his word we will attack. Frankly, even now there are worse places on earth than Syria, take for instance the Congo.

Attacking Syria, a practically worthless bunch of Islamic radicals, nearly promises that Iran gets involved. Why on earth are we risking getting Iran involved over this petty nation Syria.

And, don't forget Iran's promised attack on Israel.

Where Is Endgame In Syria?

If you have been following the situation in Syria, then you probably know that whether Assad is in power or the rebels are in power, neither is an ideal situation.  In fact, sitting back and thinking, perhaps the situation now is ideal.  We have the rebels taking up Assad’s attention, such that Syria’s hands are tied. 

We don’t like Syria because they say only Muslims should rule, or at least practically all of the people of Syria.  Personally, I don’t consider Islamic rule as ideal, such that I don’t see any sort of world advantage war in Syria will gain for the USA.

I can’t say that I agree with the use of chemical weapons, but I don’t see use of chemical weapons as a line of demarcation where it becomes paramount that the U.S. gets involved.  Please Congress, send a message to the President that we do not want another war.  If it is true that the Syrian’s are willing to use them on their own people speaks volumes for how low of a nation this country is.

Strangely, this is coming at a time where we are thinking of raising the debt ceiling again.  I am wondering if there was foul play and Assad didn’t use chemical weapons, but some other party used them, so that the President and Congress can gain the patriotic momentum that they will need to raise the debt ceiling through war.  We won’t be able to go to war in Syria if we don’t raise the debt ceiling. 

Remember, this was the time that the Republicans were going to put down their foot on the issue of the debt ceiling.  But, will they put down their foot at the risk of not having another war?  The Republicans have long been the party that is more trigger happy than the Democrats.  So, will we go to war?  The answer is yes, and only because someone has played the war card in Syria, throwing House Republicans in a tizzy.  They can’t be the world policeman if they vote against raising the debt ceiling!!!

So where should the endgame be?:  The endgame should be now! 9/2/2013

More of My Comments to Why Do Rabbis Discourage Conversions? By Aaron Moss

If we are keeping a low profile, then we are not doing our job. As Rabbi Tzvi Freeman elucidated in another article it is the mission of Hassidic Judaism to bring Torah to any place that needs it. This was the idea of the Baal Shem Tov. And, that is to bring Torah to the world, and that when this is done the age of Messiah will be here.

If why are bringing the Torah to the world, why then would it be prudent to discourage conversions? So far as I understand, conversions are discouraged in order to give potential converts a push and pull with the culture and religion of Judaism. It is expected that converts accept the entire Torah, and if they can’t do that, then gentiles are still welcome as friends.

I, personally, find the idea of turning away converts to be difficult. Several times it has made me very angry. However, I do not accept the Torah in its entirety, and thus as I understand the Bible, which is paramount in my life, it is not right for me to become Jewish. Specifically, I do not believe that the command to be fruitful and multiply has any relevance in today’s world, as there are billions upon billions of people. If you ask me, then I would say that we are headed toward population dystopia, which I believe is already happening in places like China, where all their major rivers are polluted. However, the vast portion of Torah; I believe, and usually far more than most anyone I ever meet, including Jews.

Really, if we are keeping a low profile [at chabad.org], then what is the deal with this website? Millions come here!!! And, anyone, Jewish or gentile, can ask a question to a Rabbi. I like the rules, as long as I am not excluded. When I was informed that as a friend of the Jews, I would not be treated as a gentile; that was all I wanted to hear!

True I have heard that there once was a time when Jews evangelized, but if anything, we no longer do so because most of us know how obnoxious it is to be evangelized to, us usually being in the minority. All Chabad.org does is to make the Torah available, which is not like evangelizing, except in the most abstract sense. It is putting out loving information that if someone is stumbling upon the Hebrew nation: they are likely to enjoy it.

A reason I don't like evangelism is because it has the potential to rip apart families. I know that my pursuit of Judaism has been somewhat of a stumbling block for my own family, which I might describe as Judeo-Christian. For example, my wife observes Passover with me, but we don’t go all out for it doing things such as clean every last inch of the house to get rid of bread crumbs though usually I do some cleaning. However, I do admit, as far as Judaism goes: I am an addict.

I still believe in encouraging folks to do as they feel is correct. Sometimes folks practice parts of Jewish Law though they aren't Jewish (like myself), and that is great when someone goes the extra mile when they don't have to. I encourage those folks that do so without fear. Fear Gd; not the bully!

Judaism doesn't actively seek converts, and especially it is taught that one does not have to be Jewish in order to be a good person. As we speak, I am happy being a good person. A part of that is that Judaism is at the center of my world, as Torah teaches. I don’t feel like I have to be Jewish though. Conversion would probably only alienate me from my family even more, and I don’t think any Rabbi would support that. Even my wife recognizes that the time I spend at chabad.org has at least taught me a few good things.

Judaism does seek to make Jews observant, such that there is almost evangelism within the religion. Really, this is not evangelism in the sense that Christians or Catholics practice, as Jews believe that the residue of Gd’s speech in Genesis 1 is in all, and that one cannot accurately ask Gd into his or her heart because Gd is already there! That is, all that is what created in the 10 Divine Utterances of Gd, and everything we know of is somehow a derivative of these words.

One reason I choose Judaism over Christianity is that it is accurate. Granted, I probably have a few typos, but for the most part I try to say what I mean. When the words born again come up, to me that means starting from nothing. Being born again sounds as if someone is going to be relearning everything that they have learned up to that point. However, Christians say that it doesn’t really mean that. In fact, whenever I use the literal definition of anything with Christians, they almost always back down and say, “That thing [in the New Testament] doesn’t mean what is says it means. It means something else," such that a whole jargon of Christian speak is created based upon New Testament inaccuracy. Jews often try to make Jews to be better Jews, through Jews trying to get other Jews to be more observant. Rather than a Christian born again experience a complete starting over from nothing. Differently, Jews believe that the goodness in all souls is already present and that it only needs to be revealed if it has in some way become hidden.

Call me Korah (Craig) (Koreck, Korah)

The following blog describes how I am immersed in Torah, which is a command of the Bible.

Genesis Chapter 36:(5) and Oholibamah bore Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau, that were born unto him in the land of Canaan.

I was born an Edomite.  Additionally, I belong to Haplogroup I, which is, according to the Jews of the Middle Ages, the Haplogroup of Edom.  For example, the Jews often depicted the rulers of Europe in the Middle Ages as Edom.  Like Edomites, I was wicked, but it wasn’t my fault.  Nowhere in Torah does it say that wickedness is the fault of the child.  However, when I was 21, I encountered Gd, and he spoke to me, and I repented.  When I repented, it was revealed to me that I had a dietary issue where it was that eating certain foods caused me to be wicked.  The test was performed by the Great Plains Laboratory under the supervision of Dr. Greenblatt, and the results were that I had opiates that came from eating both gluten or casein, such that if I cut out these foods, my sense of myself as being a wicked person was removed.

(14) And these were the sons of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife; and she bore to Esau Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah.

As a youngster, Korah had a chief.

 (18) And these are the sons of Oholibamah Esau's wife: the chief of Jeush, the chief of Jalam, the chief of Korah. These are the chiefs that came of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife.

Exodus 6: (21) And the sons of Izhar: Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri.

Thus, Korah was a Cohenim.  I should note that after a few generations Edomites are permitted to be in the assembly of Jews.  My grandfather had become interested in being a Jew, and now as the generations of time have worn on, it is okay for me to be in an assembly of Jews.  For example, twice I attended service at Cape Cod Synagogue.  However, I feel Orthodox is a better denomination than Reform.  There is no reason for me to convert as, my family is Christian, though I am not Christian, such that I could not hope to have a Jewish child, because Jewishness is matrilineal.

First Chronicles Chapter 6:(3) And the sons of Kohath were Amram, and Izhar, and Hebron, and Uzziel.

Korah had sons that went to Egypt, where sons are not necessarily genetic, but are raised by a father.

(24) And the sons of Korah: Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph; these are the families of the Korahites.

Numbers Chapter 16 describes the rebellion of Korah against Moses.

As a result:

(32) And the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.

Many died as a result of what happened to Korah.  I believe that my leaving of New Jersey after having committed idolatry, as the Torah says my father would turn my head away such that I believed in a false G-d, and I did though I realized my mistake in having committed idolatry, such that I moved to a new locality and I repented.  It was amazing that I lived after calling 9-11.  I am suspicious that my having committed idolatry and calling 9-11  resulted in the 9/11 terrorism.  However, I am not proud of that incident, and wish that 9/11 never happened.  However, when I was sick and called 9-11, I was glad that G-d visited me, and I immediately repented from my idolatry and worshiped YHVH, who spoke to me as I AM. 

Numbers 17:(14) Now they that died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides them that died about the matter of Korah.

However, the sons of Korah, the ones that where loyal to him as a father did not die. 

Numbers 26: (11) Notwithstanding the sons of Korah died not.

Korah becomes a Levitical clan, where Levites are spread out throughout the world.

Numbers 26:(58) These are the families of Levi: the family of the Libnites, the family of the Hebronites, the family of the Mahlites, the family of the Mushites, the family of the Korahites. And Kohath begot Amram.

Many great songs are associable with the Korahites.

Psalms Chapter 42, Psalms Chapter 44, Psalms Chapter 45, Psalms Chapter 46, Psalms Chapter 47, Psalms Chapter 48, Psalms Chapter 49, Psalms Chapter 84, Psalms Chapter 85, Psalms Chapter 87, Psalms Chapter 88, 

Science, Medicine and Religion: A Theory as To Why So Many Scientists Are Atheists

Let’s get one things straight, this is not at all to say that scientists are dumb.  In fact, in academia I believe that despite the high amount of atheists that these scientists and other folk with Ph. D’s.  Science is probably the discipline where among its practitioners one will find the greatest percentage of atheists.  However, stop right there because I don’t believe being a parrot of those cloaked in lab coats will result in gaining intelligence.

So, where is it that science has gone wrong if there is in fact a Gd that cares about us, and a Gd that wants to see us repent?  The first error I believe folks make in disregarding the Bible is that they automatically assume that it doesn’t describe the way creation actually is.  Not until a scientist is willing to take the Torah seriously as a document that describes both the honky dory aspects of life as well as the extremely negative aspects of life, such as parents eating babies will a scientist or a doctor have their heart prepared to receive the Torah as a primary source for knowledge about creation.  By the way I don’t believe that Gd created creation in six 24 hour days, in fact that much seems impossible because the sun wasn’t created until the 4^th day, such that previous to that it would appear that dates and times become uncertain.

The crux of science and medicine including religion is that it is done without the doctor knowing about it.  The Talmud, which is Torah, tells us that if we are a healer, we should act as if Gd does not exist when healing!!!  Thus, in a way atheists are kind of doing it right when practicing their jobs.  They do not sit on their hands and wait for Gd to heal the person, and they are foolish for not having explored religion further by assuming this is what religionists would think is reasonable behavior for a doctor.

IMHO that right there is the most unknown aspect about religion that has led to academia being virtually furious toward religionists.  When it comes to religionists, it can often be said, “Don’t ask a fool his or her opinion for he or she will almost certainly disappoint you,” and I do understand that there are far more fools that are religionists, than there is that are doctors, but for scientists in academia, the one’s with 150 IQs etc, there is really no excuse for lack of knowledge.  It is crucial that this information be spread about how that when one is to operate, whether it is surgery or a science experiment, he or she is to act as if Gd does not exist, but also to be prepared for Gd to act upon the doctor such that the healing may be done.

The Greatest Command: To Love Gd or To Love One's Neighbor, Which Is It?

On the greatest command; I believe that it is to love your neighbor because this command is at the heart of every great religion.  Thus, I do not believe that the greatest command is to love the L-rd your Gd with all of your heart, strength, and mind.  Jesus was wrong.  Surely, we would have found world peace by now if Jesus were correct on this matter, but as we tick past another thousand years with no world peace, it only highlights that Jesus was incorrect.

If you ask folks of every religion about Gd, there would most likely be differing opinions and arguments, especially even among members of the same faith.  These arguments go nowhere, and are often heartfelt, despite that they are on the same subject.  On the issue of Gd, when it comes to various religions, the people of earth spin their wheels and get nowhere.  Surely, this should not be the focal point of religion.  The focal point should be ethics, and even the ethics about how to treat folks of other religions that believe in a different Gd that you believe in.

As Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Lydia said, when he was asked which is greater, to love God or your neighbor; this Rabbi said to love your neighbor because then you are loving the ones whom God loves.  He was correct.  The focus of religion should be ethics, including the ethics of faith.  However, if we can not get along despite the fact that we believe in Gd, especially over issues such as the name of Gd, then all of our faith is practically for nothing.  

We are put here on earth for a specific reason.  That reason is our purpose.  That purpose according to my Bible is to act ethically to our neighbors for if we don't get along our faith is as nothing.

Rethinking women in the military

The military is desperately in need of people who will shoot, and will pull the trigger because despite training normal soldiers won't pull the trigger in a shoot to kill situation. These sociopaths join the military with the hope of being allowed to shoot just about anyone. With women in the military, I would expect that women, unless they are strong enough, would be likely prey for the military's most needed folks, the sociopaths.

Our military, and every other military in history hasn't treated women of conquered lands properly. Soldiers go to war and the boys club gets out of hand. And, if soldiers don't treat women of foreign lands correctly, which has always been an embarrassment to our military, as it has been for every military in history, why should we expect our women to be treated differently, especially since the one's most likely to mistreat our lady soldiers are our military's and every militaries', for that matter, most valuable resource, the sociopaths.

So the major problem is, if you remove the sociopaths who are or would be rapists, we would be left a military afraid to shoot strangers, and L-rd knows that is a weak military.

In consequence, most women should not be allowed to serve in the military. However, perhaps as a suggestion, we might have women that want to join to be given rigorous testing to see if they have enough strength that they could most likely avoid rape if a terrible situation presents itself.

One thing that I would like to make clear is that I do not think rape is okay. Rather, in order to avoid rapes, where rape is likely to be the same curse to the military as pedophilia is to the Catholic Church, we need to take steps of precaution. I don’t believe that males should be required to be celibate, anymore than I believe women should be allowed serve in the military. So, this represents a great change of thinking of mine, where I had originally and naively thought women, especially women of average strength for a woman, should be allowed to serve in the military.

A Question For the Rabbi; Can There Be Jewishness Without Moses and Aaron? Would There Have Been Jewishness If Not For Moses and Aaron?

The question: "I doubt that there is some sort of cosmic vibration that a Jewish mother's womb gives off that makes her offspring Jewish.
It seems that the vehicle for transmission of the Jewish message is patriarchal, the way Ethics of Our Fathers seems to indicate. For example, 1:1 "Moses received the Torah from Sinai and gave it over to Joshua. Joshua gave it over to the Elders, the Elders to the Prophets, and the Prophets gave it over to the Men of the Great Assembly..."

I was told by the Rabbi that while educational tradition is passed down by the father. The essence is passed on by the mother.


"The Torah explicitly forbids intermarriage. The source is in Deuteronomy 7:3-4,
You shall not intermarry with them; you shall not give your daughter to his son, and you shall not take his daughter for your son, for he will cause your child to turn away from after Me and they will worship the gods of others." http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/108396/jewish/Intermarriage.htm
I personally admit to my audience. I have committed idolatry. I don't even necessarily think it was my fault, as I didn't know any better. Possibly, it was because my father instructed me in faithless science. Chemical imbalance caused me to be hyper-sexual for which my dad did turn my head to the wrong direction, suggesting masturbation is good. The Bible says however, "And, they will worship the gods of others," and that much does not describe me. I committed idolatry, but refrain from worship because I believe my idol to be horrible and that I would die if I believed in her. So, I fled. I moved much the same way where if someone has committed murder moves to a city of refuge, according to biblical command. When I committed idolatry, Hashem intervened and to His surprise I suddenly believed in the Gd of the Israel. My life has never been the same, as I have received both forgiveness and blessing from Hashem. The only hint that mom is Jewish is that she told me never to lie.

Live By Your Words, No Matter How Fantastic They Seem and Live to Be 1,000!!!

My reasoning for believing that I am the Messiah comes from sound Biblical reasoning.

March 25th, 2000 I was hospitalized for psychosis. When I saw the doctor, he had a yarmulke on, so I figure that he is Jewish, and for some reason, completely insanity, and not knowing what I was saying I stated that I am the Messiah. Since, then I have been unable to shake that belief, and the Bible says that is the correct thing to do, "You must fulfill what has crossed your lips and perform what you have voluntarily vowed to the Lord your God, having made the promise with your own mouth (Deuteronomy 23:24 JPS, others 23:23)

"Positive Commandment 94

Fulfilling Verbal Obligations

"That which issues from your lips you shall keep and perform"—Deuteronomy 23:24.

We are commanded to carry through that which we pledge to do [or not to do]."

http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/961490/jewish/Positive-Commandment-94.htm

Strangely, the pathway back to sanity has no been to apologize, and say that I am sorry for stating that I said I am the messiah.  In order to understand this, I must live by what I have said.  I have no intent on being a liar.  I don't even wish to be a superstar.  What I believe is that me, the messiah, is a secret to this world.  I don't seek crowds or popularity, merely the desire to impact this world in a positive way so that I may see this following verse fulfilled: Isaiah 65:20. "There shall no longer be from there a youth or an old man who will not fill his days, for the youth who is one hundred years old shall die, and the sinner who is one hundred years old shall be cursed.  http://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/15996"

The people of this generation frustrate me.  They say, I am 80, therefore I shall die at an old age.  However, the greatest generation lived to be much older than their grandparents generation.  To the peoples of earth I beseech you:  There once was a time in the middle ages and the dark ages of Europe where the life expectancy was somewhere between a mere 25 to 30 years old.  If you had told these people that it would be common to see folks live to be 80 they would have laughed.  Certainly, all but a very small minority would have believed that living to 80 is possible.  It is this way with our generation.  I need for people to give up on the idea of living to a 80 and then dying.  Believe me, when I say that one who dies at 80 is but a youth.  Who can identify how old folks will live to?  I beseech you that we too are possibly like lobsters, which are hypothetically immortal (John C. Guerin (2006). "Emerging area of aging research: long-lived animals with "negligible senescence"". Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences 1019 (1): 518–520.doi:10.1196/annals.1297.096. PMID 15247078.).

Take Hold of Your Dreams

First, we must learn to control our actions. If we don't have any control over our actions we have no control over our character. However, there is more. For Gd's blessing we learn to control our thoughts. And, when we master thought, the final battleground becomes the battle to control our dreams, for when we control our dreams, we control our destiny.

To President Barrack Obama: Don't Let Syria Use Us

Barrack Obama is coming across as rather clueless with respect to Syria. Death count should be more important than whether or not chemical weapons were used. Secondly, who cares what kind of weapons where used? Weapons are weapons, I see no reason to distinguish between the type of weapon used and the way that should relate to our foreign policy, as one weapon that causes death is as another weapon that causes death. Really, the difference is only cosmetics. Additionally, I believe that if anyone should help Syria it should be another Muslim nation, as I have no desire for us to save a bunch of people, the Syrians, and then have them hate us for it, calling us infidels.

All Syria wants to do with us is to use us. Most likely, Syria has no desire ever to help us, but the converse it that they would probably want to terrorize us, if they had the means. The Bible says to help your neighbor if they are stuck in the mud, even if they are your enemy. However, why is it that the entire would looks to us, the USA for help. We have too many of our own problems to be able to help Syria. Someone other than the USA should help Syria because we can't be the life support system of the entire world.

Sorry Need to Post Corrections

Sorry Need to Post Corrections:
For the past several years I had thought the Hamilton clan was Scottish Highlanders, when in fact the Hamilton Clan is a Lowland clan.
I have tried to change what blogs that I found that had errors.  However, I suspect I have not found them all, and because I have posted so much to the internet, I probably will never fully be able to change all of my mistakes.

Very Sorry,

Ed Markey and Mike Sullivan for Senate 2013: Comment on Debate

After listening to Democrats and Republicans debating for Senator Kerry’s spot, I hope that either Ed Markey http://markey.house.gov/ or Mike Sullivan are elected for senate. Their competition is 2nd class for Senatorial positions.

I am mostly in favor of the democrat candidate, Markey, but would not be disappointed if Mike Sullivan won.

Watching how Sullivan's Republican candidates, his competitors, didn't bat an eyelash at the subject of gay marriage had me worried. I am in favor of allowing gay marriage, but I don't believe I could discuss the issue with such a straight face. You know the type of straight face that makes people want to laugh.  When I initially wrote this as a post to Facebook, I was giggling at Sullivan's Republican opponents' candidate talk, and would like the chance to laugh in the face of his current competition.

If I had to describe the Republican debate on the subject of gay marriage, it reminded me of a scene in the movie Dirty Work (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120654/).

In one scene of the movie, Norm MacDonald gets even with a mean employer who runs a movie theater by playing (so called) gay porn in the theater.  The beginning of the scene is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tXQm9K9cjQ

I wouldn’t even know what gay porn is, as I have never seen it nor do I want to.  So, if you are gay and reading this, thank you for keeping the gay porn out of my search engine.

I'll never forget the tone of the words in Dirty Work, "Let's have sex with it," and thank goodness that they didn't show the porn. They just showed all the customers running out of the movie theater. That attitude of the gay porn tone of voice, which was so funny in Dirty Work is pretty much exactly the same voice these Republicans use in the debate.  It is worth a giggle.

The debate is available here: (the Democrats) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f41M6LUUils

And, (the Republicans),

That would be called dry humor.

Spring Is A Go – A Poem

Spring is a go

Sing as we plow with our hoe

Scattering seeds of life

For back break harvest strife

Baseball games are ah playin’

My mood is a’ liftin’  I am just sayin’

And, in all that we do

Spring has sprung through and through

Bollocks: Scientific and Relgious

It's good to know that I am a religionist who doesn't fall into any of these [major or minor] categories [completely].

I do however credit Gd with intelligence beyond intelligence, and thus, I do believe in intelligent design. I also believe in faith healing, as well as that curses can be efficacious. Thus, I do believe prayer can work. Likewise, I also believe in karma.

It is a little bit of everything many scientific folks call quackery.

What I find is that Dawkins, like a typical person with a doctoral degree has such desire to make dumb folk act like parrots. The doctoral degree is absurd because doctors present themselves as gods, meaning that Dawkins and other doctoral folk are taught to take the necessary measures to make regular folk submit to their way of life.

Science has a lot of bollocks too. [Many] scientists publish stuff in lesser journals in order to avoid greater scrutiny that would come from publishing in a better journal. And, this science bollocks is done just to get funding.

What about science bollocks? Peer reviews by people that haven't repeated the experiments, but somehow feel they know enough to comment on them, though the comments aren't recorded. What about the prevalence of admission that if someone finds a journal article he or she can't repeat, then they blame it on themselves, not even bothering to make note? Why aren't records kept on who is able to repeat experiment? Why is it such that if other people can't repeat the science bollocks a record is not kept of the amount of times the information in a journal article has failed to work?

If peer review isn't how I suggest it is, then please inform me. Peer review is done by your peers in science, but that is all. It is not a review of people that have repeated the experiment. In fact, many times the experiment is not even done, but it is published as if it were done. If it doesn't have error bars, then chances are it is just a theory, which someone may or may not be able to make a fact. Please inform me about the way science peer review works if you think I don't have it right.

Nicotene, Caffeine, Taurine, ect. Soda Pop

It is completely beyond me why I have yet to hear of a soda pop that uses nicotene. One would think that this method for adminstering nicotene would not only be affective, but also save lives. That is, I want to make beverages with nicotene in them.

Airplane flights would probably be much more pleasant for a good many of smokers. In fact, these drinks would probably help a good many of people quit smoking. Additionally, drinking beverages with nicotine in them would probably extend a good many of peoples lives. For example, they already know from research that people are more likely to live to be a 100 years old if they smoke, despite the fact that smoking should generally be thought of as a killer for the vast majority of people.

Do Animals Think That We Are Gds?

In a chatroom on AOL, a friend of mine posited that animals think we are Gds because they treat us like we are Gds.  I recently asked my wife the same question, and got a different answer.  She thought that animals are completely unable to conceive of the idea of Gd.  That much I imagine is probably true.  A creature needs to have a certain amount of smarts to conceive of activities worthy of a deity.

Frankly, I don’t think most humans are able to conceive of the idea of Gd.  Most humans are either to dumb, idol worshippers for the sake of popularity, and/or smart people jaded by their own abilities.

1.       With respect to people that just aren’t smart enough to faith, it is not that I do not believe that there vessel, meaning their body, is not permeated by holy Light, but it is that they simply do not have an IQ high enough.

That might sound small minded, but I have had a professional IQ assessment of my intelligence, and more than just knowing that my intelligence is superior, I know that others must not have been able to give correct answers to questions I thought most people knew the answers to.  Thus, because I know these answers, I am baffled by the prevalence of those unable to answer such simple questions, and that gives me the idea that animals, and some humans may not be intelligent enough to conceive of the idea of a Gd.  However, that is not the only command, as I will show that there are commands other than faith below.

2.       With respect to popularity and idol worshipping, this is something that Christians do.  Christianity suffers from the belief that Jesus is Gd (heaven forefend that this is the case, but nonetheless it is the case).  These idol worshippers are living long lives though because outside of idol worship many of them are good people, and Hashem only knows their heart when He visits them on their death bed, as it is said, “Gd visits the sick.”

I, myself, feel lucky that Hashem visited me when I was very sick, and not only that, I got hope that my condition could improve and it did.  I believe Hashem visits the sick because only when one is so weak and humble is he or she ready to receive the message of the L-rd in its fullest sense.  That is, I would expect most people would take such information lightly had these visits come during others times.

3.     With respect to intellectuals and the intelligent, and here mainly I am speaking of doctors, especially those whom are atheists, it only makes sense to me that because they heal and experiment with their very hands, as if Gd did not exist  that they actually come to believe the existence of Gd is not necessary.  This is because it is said to act as if Gd did not exist when healing, and not to send someone on their way with only a prayer if at all possible.

So coming back to cats.  I like feral cats.  I like to heal, and by their actions feral cats show that they believe in a cruel harsh existence far different from the well taken care of domestic cat.  Don’t get me wrong, it is not that I don’t like domesticated cats.  I hope that there is a warm and loving home for every domesticated cat, and I own two of them, and they, these kitties, continue giving and have given so much love.  However, there are many cats out there that only know of a cruel existence, and though perhaps there is no hope for the adult feral cats, meaning that love can’t pierce into their hardened hearts, I have hope for feral kittens.

Sometimes a feral kitten can be taken in and shown that life doesn’t have to be quite so hard.  In that way, when cats are able to give up their predatory diet of blood and guts, in favor of more humanely slaughtered meat, in fact dry food, as in Leviticus it is a blessing to eat old produce (Leviticus 26), it is as if they have chosen Hashem’s way, where lovingkindness is central to the harmony, and foundation of seeing the less cruel side of nature.  That is, we as humans, like cats, especially those who take Torah seriously are able to live idealistic lives, and it is only because we have chosen and continue to choose the way of Hashem.

Do cats believe that we are Gods again...I can only ponder that.

“ADHD, autism, schizophrenia, and other major disorders may be more related than we thought.”

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/28/psychiatric-disorders-genetics-mental-disorder-autism-adhd_n_2781772.html My extended commentary to a Huffington Post article on the subject of the title. I knew it all along. Why? Because I had them all. As a youngster, I had ADHD, but undiagnosed though every knew I had it. Then, I had a psychotic episode where I was told that my illness would only get worse. That was proven wrong by going not the holistic route, but the comprehensive route, where my family had to dig deep into their pockets in order that I would get healed. The treatment I receive comes by licensed practitioners at Comprehensive Psychiatric Resources in Waltham, MA. The separation of these diagnosis is often according to age more than anything else. Doctors are much likely to play the part of wishful thinking by diagnosing a kid with ADHD rather than make a mistake and give a diagnosis that has more stigma attached to it. If it’s a kid, then they call it autism or ADHD. Why? Everyone has a lot of hope that a cure will come for autism. And, frankly it is practically in style to get a diagnosis of ADHD. The problem is that autistic children become schizophrenic adults. That is when they get a, “You are beyond all hope diagnosis,” which is not entirely true if your doctor uses comprehensive resources like the Great Plains Laboratory. These folks are often able to get their diagnosis reduced to bipolar on a gluten and casein free diet, as I did, but there is no cure for the damage that ten or twenty years of opiates can deal to a young developing mind. Also, I recommend doing the test to see if a gluten free and/or casein free diet is necessary for you or your loved one. Lot’s of people go gluten free and just because they eat healthier, they report a false positive that removing gluten is helpful. That test can hopefully be administered to you through the Great Plains Laboratory that also requires that you work with a licensed practitioner in order to get the test. It will cost you an arm and a leg, and your health care almost certainly won’t cover it, but it can mean the difference between life and death. I, myself, am suspicious of the shots. Mainly, vaccines affect the immune system, and many of these disorders are traceable to the immune system. Thus, the thing that we are observing that has reaction to the immune system may go back as far as the appearance of narcolepsy, as a separate diagnosable disorder, where it was previously unknown to exist, and where these folks are observed to exhibit narcotic symptoms, that appear as if one has consumed opiates. It is that there are certain plants that contain gluten, and milk that contains casein, that these two proteins have opiate derivatives, which affect some people but not others. The fact is that the gut of someone with the illness in question, be it ADHD, autism, schizophrenia, narcolepsy, or chronic fatigue, etc, is fundamentally different. The gut of people with these illnesses digests gluten and casein different from the majority of the population. With respect to the doctor, Dr. Andrew Wakefield's, who lost his job for putting out a journal article for the above mentioned information. If the guy was actually a crook, out to do harm, he would have most likely not said something so profound as a link between vaccines and autism. That statement is so audacious that he would have had to have been a fool to make it and be trying to tell us all a lie. He would have been debunking the goodness of vaccines, and vaccines have long been considered perhaps in the 10 top medicinal inventions ever. Folks this guy was a doctor, and not a dummy. Only a dummy would make up such a lie as to correlate vaccines and autism, and frankly there is not a chance in hell that a doctor would have said that particular thing if it was in fact untrue.

WTF??? Does AT&T Think That I Want To Pay More for Data Sometimes?

I just looked at my AT&T Go Phone message that just informed me that I have no money left. That is because I didn’t buy a bigger data package. However, it would have been nice if they had warned me to buy a data package, rather than run up the dough on my phone, as if I wanted to pay more money by not having a data package.

So hi! Let me introduce myself. I was a happy AT&T customer because Verizon screwed me for data to a much greater extent than AT&T did though nonetheless both companies have screwed me before.

I am a somewhat happy user of a Go Phone now, so that getting screwed to the extent of $1,000 over data with Verizon will never happen again because when my card runs out of money, that’s it. If I was with Verizon under contract, it could have been worse. Last I knew, you could spend yourself into oblivion with Verizon data without even a warning.

At least a warning would have helped me with AT&T. Now, I am without my phone because I was watching a long video on it that ate up all my data. AT&T courteously stopped me when I had spent my last cent, but they didn’t courteously tell me that my data plan had run out. I would have liked the option to buy a new plan when the last one ran out, such that I don’t have to wait until my next check to have a phone to use.

Like Verizon, AT&T is doing bad business. When I worked at McDonald’s if you ordered everything that comes with a value meal, it was automatic for us to make it at the value meal price. Why? It is good business to help the customer get deals. That makes your business at least seem friendly. In the same way, when your data package ends, it should automatically deny you use of data unless you purchase a data package, even if it is an emergency package that costs say, $1 for 1MB, because seriously AT&T who actually wants to spend more money on data by not buying a data package, especially without being asked!!!???

A Looming Potential Disaster to the Credibility of Science

I think oxidation is a major factor when it comes to dating fossils. When dating something, oxidation is not included in the factor, because in theory these fields have yet to be united in a theory of everything, so to say. You can't tell me that the sun beating down on some rocks causes them to decay, and that is not someway tied to the their radioactive date. Radioactivity is only part of the picture, and it most certainly reasonable to believe that oxidation plays a role in radioactivity.

I have written on this subject years ago, but I never got much of a response. So, now I'll give it another try.

Why Christianity Is Wrong

"Exodus 33:20. And He said, 'You will not be able to see My face, for man shall not see Me and live.'"


Then, why do people believe that Jesus is God? Christianity is so absurd. By definition in the 10 commandments, if you believe something that is an earthen vessal, even a human is a Gd, then that is idolatry.

The same is true with me. I might claim to be a Messiah, but I am certainly not a God. God is in me as he is in everthing in this creation, permeating it in conceiled omnipresence, as we can't see Gd. Please don't worship me. And, it is true that I believe Gd has spoken to me. God's words to me where, "I am punishing you." So, I said, "Why are you punishing me?" And, Gd's reply was, "I get everyone sooner or later." And, yet I do know that this qualifies as a hallucination, yet I trust that it was real and Gd spoke to me.

TMI: On The Feb. 2013 Blizzard Nemo - Soaked In Pee In The Cold and Dark Night

I confess on the blizzard Nemo Feb 2013.  The power outage could not have gotten any worse for me the first night.  I woke up in the middle of it, and me being a guy, I figured I could pee in the dark.  You know, I've done it a million times in the light, so I should be able to do it blind-folded even.  Well folks, I missed the pot, and the spray came right back at me.  I took off my shirt and wiped myself with it, and I wiped the floor with it, but it wasn't like I could take a shower in the dark!  I would have fallen on my ass if I tried that.  So, defeated, having tried to stand and pee in the dark, I went back to bed on the couch.  Yuck!  Next time, when the power is out at night, I am going to sit to pee.  Thank Gd the power is back and I can take a shower lighted shower with hot water.
