In Case You Didn't Bother With Church This Sunday

In Case You Slept Through Church On Sunday

In Case You Skipped Church On Sunday

Ah, John Lennon. He was so right about about the followers of Jesus Christ; I would say both during the lifetime Of Jesus and today, but it is abundantly clear that Jesus did not exist. I wish he had been correct about the Christian church, as a whole, vanishing and shrinking. Then, the world would have a chance at peace.

Precedence In Case Law To Allow Strangulation?

I was just informed by a rather persistent troll that because of a recent Kansas court case, one in which yours truly was a witness, there is now a precedent to strangle our relatives, friends, and neighbors. My troll is very, very upset because the defendant demanded his right to a trial, presented his case, and won. The charges were false, as nearly as I could tell, from what I witnessed of the incident. A desire to see an innocent man sent to prison is certainly disturbing, but such tends to be the manner of Christianity in the Midwest. The troll has even proposed hosting a party for such violence, offering that it is now legal. Hopefully, this was not a threat.

Precedence in court cases refers to cases in which existing law is interpreted either in a new way, or cases to which the court determines that existing law applies in situations where it traditionally has not applied in the past. This allows new or expanded interpretations of existing law, and sometimes different resulting actions or court orders. The prevailing decision will set a "precedent". All of this is based upon actual law. The laws, themselves, do not change. Crime does not become legal this way.

A decision by a judge or by a jury that a defendant is not guilty of criminal charges does not set a precedent for that crime to become legal. This is where my troll lacks understanding. In a criminal case, the argument is not about whether or not the crime is legal, but about whether or not the defendant actually committed the crime. A verdict of not guilty only serves to absolve the defendant of any false charges, it does not change the law.

The defendant in this case finds it unusual that certain people who had flown under the banner of "friends", mostly employees at the sorry-assed excuse for a local public school in his town, have not congratulated him because he won his case. Even more nauseating are teachers who continue to tell children, including those in close association with the defendant's children, that he is guilty, in spite of the decision by the court was that he is not guilty. These teachers practically climbed over each other to badmouth the defendant before trial, yet upon acquittal, refuse to apologize or tell all to whom they have unjustly gossiped that they were wrong. The superintendent was unaware of the court's decision until recently. Shouldn't these Christian teachers, who never miss an opportunity to force their religion on others, admit they made a mistake and try to amend all the damage they have done? Or does Jesus only initiate assholes to join his petty and ridicules churches?

Alice Jones Hears God, I Hear My Ancestors

We have a library here in Frankfort, Kansas, that is almost devoid of useful information, but chock full of racism and unlawful behavior. Heartland Works is a program funded by the Department of Labor that provides work opportunities for high school students in need of paid work experience. Heartland Works; Alice Jones, the director of the library; and Tom Schroeder, the guidance counselor of Frankfort High; work together to gain labor for the library at no cost to the City of Frankfort. Well and good, as long as no class time is lost to the students involved, and Miss Alice and Mr. Tom account for the students during every minute of the school day, and remember that recreational drugs and underage drinking are against the law.

It recently came to my attention, via conversations with one of my daughters, who had been involved in the Heartland Works program, that another child working at the library under the same auspices was often drunk at work, and occasionally engaged in uses of recreational drugs. In an attempt to verify this information with Alice Jones, the ultimate eyewitness here, I was stunned when she affirmed every word my daughter said, and offered in her own defense, "I knew ____ was violating the law, but God told me not to report it, and to give her "another chance". When I asked how many "other chances" were given, a concrete number was not determined. So there it was: despite the fact that Frankfort High is a public school, beholden to the same federal laws as all other public schools in the United States of America, Tom Schroeder and Alice Jones took it upon themselves to betray my trust in the public school where I sent all six of my children. Also, I had not realized how unexposed my daughter was, prior to her Heartland Works experience, to drugs and drunkenness, but she shared with me that this was the first occasion in her life to actually witness pathological drinking and drug use in person.

Aside from the obvious violations of the law, which is designed to protect my children from Frankfort's alcohol and drug abusing children at school, another disturbing portion of this entire situation is the fact that a silly-assed library director not only thought her own opinion and ideas could and would override my country's law, but justified her deliberate errors by explaining to me that "God" told her to do it! In essence, she exposed my child, who was supposed to gain exposure to employment experience, to underage drinking, drugs obtained via black market sources, and to the wonderful world of enabling and functioning as an accessory after the fact! Those are things I would not ask my daughter to do for me, or for anyone in her family, and they are NOT things that any child should learn at school! Can anyone blame me for my outrage at the public school in Frankfort Kansas, or at USD 380?

This is how Kansas Christians in close knit communities show their respect for other cultures.

Teaching my daughter to depart from everything I have taught her about drugs, alcoholism, following the law, and communicating with me when she became aware of problems with those things was inexcusable in every way. My daughter came from a culture that loves children and encourages communication between generations, and when Tom Schroeder and Alice Jones taught my daughter to hide those things from me, they damaged the sacred trust between mother and daughter, and took grave chances on severing her from her family and her Ancestors; and also took a grave chance of ruining her life. I should also mention that if my daughter had not been asked to hide the situation from me, it would have provided our family an opportunity to teach her more about the functions of friendship, and about sharing information with her workmate about regaining her health. But this, somehow, was not a desire of Frankfort High or Heartland Works. Be that as it may, it is one of the functions of this family, and now that my eyes are open to the subtle attacks of a Christian community, it will not happen as easily to this family again. Frankfort is going to have to fight from now on, if it wants to ruin the lives of my other children.

If Alice Jones really thought "God" was talking to her, a claim made much more often by delusional mental patients than by educated people, she got away with damaging the lives of both children, my daughter and the child she enabled, in the name of her Christian religion. If "God" really spoke inside of Alice's head, would he have told her that respect for the Laws of the Land was only for "other people" and not for her? Or would he have told her that there are reasons for the laws, and that she had a responsibility to keep them, especially when children are involved, even if she did not understand how all of the legislation over the years have contributed to current laws? If "God" really spoke inside of Alice's head, would he have told he to enable an alcoholic teenager, or would he have told her to remove the child from the Heartland Works program until she completed alcohol treatment? An opportunity to offer that child real help was lost. Shame on you, Frankfort. If "God" was really speaking inside of Alice's head, would he have told her to send the message that showing up drunk for work is acceptable? If so, can anyone blame me for hating Christians, Christianity, and God?

 

In Case You Skipped Church This Sunday

 

Just an overlooked perspective here, that's all!

Westboro Baptist Church Chickens Out

 

Amazing. Oklahoma City gets an F-5 tornado, and the very best Westboro Baptist Church can do is pull out their signs and threaten to picket. Gotta love Christianity in Northeast Kansas......NOT! Fred Phelps and Company threatened to picket in Oklahoma today, insisting that "God" sent the tornado to kill people because of Jason Collins's relationship choices. They apparently did not show, frightened away by the patiently waiting bikers.

 

 

When is Northeast Kansas gonna get off it's Christian kick?

 

 

 

A Symbol Of Love For Westboro Baptist Church

Awake Incorperated, which is associated with Planting Green, just gave Westboro Baptist Church something new to see. They purchased the house across the street from the church, and painted it in all the colors of the rainbow! The colorless, hateful, and prejudiced world of Kansas Christianity will have some balence flying in it's face now, and thanks to the photgraphic genious of Eric Ives, the pictures are available for all to see. That is one of his pictures at the left.

Awake Incorperated intends to raise awareness about bullying in Kansas and work to counteract it.


 

Sigh; Ozzy Would Have Been A Better Pope

Yahoo's Picture Of New Pope

 

>>>>>Sigh<<<<< The world of fundamental Christianity apparently has a new leader. Jorge Mario Bergoglio, of Argentina, has been magically transformed into Pope Francis. Ozzy Osbourne would still have been a better choice.

 

 

 

Special Announcement

For the entertainment of my gentlereaders, gentletrolls, friends, and spectators, and especially, for the pompous, lawbreaking, religion-loving folk in a certain small Kansas town, here's a special announcement......If any of my children come home from school with any tales to tell of pressure to join up with any so called Christian church, or if, for the upcoming holiday season, or any other season, for that matter; the school deliberately or accidently favors any religion above any other.......I will publish the picture of one of my most dishonest, backstabbing, and antimessianic trolls right here on this blog. The person is a teacher at the PUBLIC school to which I refer. If I flip through the school's holiday program and see any reference to Christianity at all, or hear anything about the need to convert, or join one of your dumbass churches, as I have in years past, I will go ahead and give a face to the troll who made these rude, unkind comments. That's right; a picture of this person will appear beside some the more virulent comments proffered by the troll. I will let the rest of the world decide whether you guys really represent Jesus.

I really don't care how long Mr. Music Teacher has been doing his unwelcome and untrue "Jesus" thingy in his class.......if you want a Christian school, go teach in one. You currently teach in a public school. As for "tradition", drug cartels and the Mafia have traditions, too. Should we uphold theirs, even if unlawful? When you bring your religion into MY child's school, you violate the law. Here's something else you might try.....get the city council to secede from the union. Write to United Nations, and tell them that because you want to force your religion on others, and it is against the law here in America, you are demographically different from others in this country, you want their help in becoming your own little nation. You could call it "Naziville", after your cousins overseas. Maybe Darkagesland, for those of you who still think the earth is flat. (I'm sure some of you think that, too) Of course, if that does not work, you'll be stuck with the responsibility of keeping the law. And if I hear any more about your silly religion, I'll be stuck with the responsibility of informing and reminding your judicial system and mine of Abingdon School District vs. Schempp, 1963, Engel Vs. Vitale, 1963, and, more recently, Ahlquist v. Cranston, 2012.

Don't ever tell me that if the majority feels it's "okay", you can violate the law. The principal of the school in question actually told me that he could break the law, and allow his staff to break the law, while on the TAXPAYORS' time card, if the "majority" "felt" that it is okay to do so. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Consitution says what it says, regardless of any "majority". If the majority wants to drive while drunk, it's still unlawful to drive while drunk. If the majority does not mind if the principal passes a bong around at pep rallies, it's still against the law for him to pass a bong around at pep rallies. The only thing in our government system that is somewhat dependent upon a majority is a popular election, but even those can be superceded by the electoral college. Indeed, my local Bolshivekers, a whole state's worth of bigots discovered in the above cited case, Ahlquist v. Cranston, 2012, that the majority does NOT necessarily rule, and that one underaged girl can insist upon a whole state's obedience to the law.

So there's my announcement. My local troll will not only have a voice here in Siri's World if this religious nonsense continues at the expense of my family's serenity, but a face.

In Case You Missed Church On Sunday

Judging by comments I seem to keep receiving from a local source, I am guessing enough has not been said about the difference between an orthodox religion and a totally insane and completely moronic (no pun intended) cult, which twists words, teachings, and doctrines for everything from convenience to profit. No; I am not a subscriber to Christianity, but if you are going to make statements concerning a belief in same, and pester me with innane comments that even contain foul language because I am not a Christian, and defend liars in the same breath, you need to understand that what you are defending has never been anything but a sham. It really doesn't matter what I mispelled here, or what name I got wrong there......my point stands. If you wanna go biblical on me, I've read it already. The Epic Black Guy here has the appropriate interpretation of the orthodox Christian basics. The Mormons don't.

If you are gonna be a Christian about everything, at least be more picky about what the icon of that movement really taught, if and when he existed!

If You Missed Church On Sunday

If you were not in church on Sunday in Mississippi, you might have missed some outrage over a wedding being relocated from from First Baptist Church in Crystal Springs to another area church because.....Charles and Te'Andre Wilson are......who would have noticed......black! In the entire jesus-lovin' church's one hundred and twentynine year history, there has never been one black wedding, and the older good Christian traditionalists of First Baptist in Crystal Springs were certainly not going to start this year! Of all the outrage! Jesus would NEVER accept someone who looks different than an Anglo Saxon American, right? And after such a couple has booked their wedding, sent out invitations, and made all other arrangements for their nuptials at First Baptist, he would certainly be very pissed off if First Baptist honored it's contract and it's word, and held the wedding at the church! Such goins' on! What's the world coming to? By the way, this is one of the reasons many people find Christianity repugnant. If there was ever a real Jesus, none of the quotes attributed to him support racial prejudism.

If you missed church in Florida this Sunday, you might have missed an exorcism!



Yet another reason to give fundamentalist Christianity a miss.
