My opinion:
On most of the unsaved trash that come to our forum:
Oh look, some zit-lipped 13-year old hussy with puffy nipples has an opinion, now all our tens of thousands of members have to change our entire lives and way of life around, despite what the Bible says.
On My Lai:
The Bible is truely timeless, and every line of it is of use as literal guidance today. For example, remember Lieutenant Calley, who neutralized all of those Buddist heathens at My Lai? He may have gotten all the credit and glory, but it was the word of God that made him rise to the challenge. From his autobiography:
"Our mission in My Lai wasn't perverted, though. It was simply 'Go and destroy it;. Remember the Bible: the Amalekites? God said to Saul, 'Now go . . . and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass. But the people took the spoil -' and God punished them. No difference now..." - Lieutenant Calley
On John 3:16 cafeteria-Christians:
What you believe in a composite character made of every drug-addicted hippie from the Beatles to ZZ top, not in the real-world Jesus. If I believe in a flatulent cockroach named "Jesus" and I repent in his name, I go to heaven? Of course not. Same thing if you make up a phoney Jesus in your own mind without reading and comprehending the Bible.
Sad to say, there are only 144,000 people in the world who truely understand Jesus and who truely follow every one of his commandments. Some in Freehold, some in our missions around the world, a few in Washington DC, more scattered around corporate headquarters here and there - some fighting in the jungles with the Lord's Resistance Army, and a few people from history, like whoever burned that feminazi Joan of Arc.
Malachi 2:3
Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces
On questioning Dick and Bush's daughters:
One of them has twin daughters who committed a few youthful indescretions, for which Jesus has forgiven them, and Dick Cheney has one daughter who who has chosen the lifestyle choice of Satan, for which Jesus will not forgive her. My theory is that whenever a boy says "dick" she got confused and thought they where talking about her father. That and it's Clinton's fault. Either that or the whole thing is just more liberalmedia lies.
Now leave us alone you immoral drug-dealing hippie pervert.
On Trial By Combat:
“...most historians date the origins of the duel to AD 501. That was when Gundebald, King of Burgundy, under pressure from a relentless bishop, [decided] to declare the wager of battle a recognized legal proceeding. He argued that since God directed the outcome of wars, it was only right to trust in His providence to favor the just cause of private quarrels as well.
(Gundebald must also have been aware that perjury was regularily being committed under the existing system of trial by oath. The clergy encouraged the belief that God, when called upon, would work a miracle in favor of anyone unjustly accused. The power of deciding a persons guilt or innocence was then placed entirely in its hands. Thus, when red-hot plowshares were placed on the ground and an accused person, blindfolded, had to avoid them to be judged innocent, a cleric had only to place the plowshares at irregular intervals to encourage a conviction; when the accused had to handle, unhurt, a piece of red-hot iron, a presiding sympathetic priest would substitute cold iron painted red - and so on.)
...Victory in combat would be proof of integrity in all legal proceeding in lieu of swearing..."trial by battle" soon became the norm throughout Europe. Duels were used to decide even the most arcane and acedemic conflicts, so that in Toledo, in 1085, a duel determined whether Latin or Mozaribic rites should be used in the liturgy (the Mozarabic champion won).
A class of proxy fighters, known as "champions" emerged. It was a dangerous way to earn a living, as a losing duelist would have his right arm cut off. The accused was kept just out of sight, a noose around his neck, if his champion lost, he would immediately be hanged or burned to death...
[Pope] Nicholas I pronounced dueling "just and legitimate" and abbots and priors began taking their share of the confiscated goods of a defeated combatant, sometimes even fighting themselves. Their weapon of choise was the mace, on the false premise that it did not shed blood (it is difficult to crush an opponent's skull cleanly). In 967 the Council of Ravenna declared judicial combat acceptable, citing David's triumph over Goliath was evidence of divine sanction. A century and a half later, there were even formulas for Church blessings of duels....Certain monasteries, such as some around Paris in the 14th century, maintained special fields equiped with walls and viewing stalls expressly for staging judicial duels, with the monks renting out facilities as required.
…the law remained on the statue book until it was cynically employed one last time, in 1817, by a man accused of murdering a girl by her younger brother. The boy was to young to fight a duel, and as no one else could be found to take his place the charges were dropped. Finally on March 22, 1819, the judicial duel was abolished by Parliament.”
_By the Sword_, Richard Cohen, p40-45
It gives us a lot to think about, doesn’t it? God does decide who wins battles, there are many battles in the Bible and all are decided by the hand of God, and there is single combat there was well, see David and Goliath. God does indeed protect the unjustly accused, notice how nobody at Enron has been jailed, obviously God is protecting them from to false witness of their accusers.
Everybody knows the court system is too soft on crime, it employs lawyers, it wastes time, and it results in boring TV dramas about lawyers, while a TV show about trial by combat would be non-stop action! We could even watch the real thing, live, in our churches, just like those old monasteries did it.
So let’s stop all this nonsense about “you need a warrant” and “read the bill of rights” and all that lawyer garbage - just start swinging your sword, and God will choose the righteous as the winner. God always has.
On the Earth being flat:
Granted, God has since rolled the world up into a ball, but only because he didn't want Columbus and his god-fearing sailors to sail off the end of the earth. So, God made the world round for him, and as a bonus, gave God's Chosen People an entire continent.
I know the whole above paragraph might not actually be written in the Bible (at least without some interpretation) but there's nothing in the Bible that contradicts it, so you can't prove it's not true, can you?
On pre-KJV Christians:
Could Christians exist before the KVJ was written? But of course, after all, Moses and his priests were Christians, and that was even before Christ. The Crusaders were obviously Christians, the Inquisitioners (the ones who worked converting Jews and Mudslimes, that is) were Christians, Cortez and his Conquistadores were Christians, and so on.
Catholic propaganda claims these heros as mary-worshippers, but whoever heard of Charlemange or Vlad The Impaler stroking rosary beads or earing dresses? No, they were too busy Doing God's Work - smiting heathens - to engage in such sinful nonsense.
God must have spoken to these first-wave crusaders directly, just as He speaks to George Bush's administration of latter-day crusaders directly.
There were lots of alter-boy-buggering blood-drinkers around before the KJV, but there were also Christians, it's just that because they all went by the same name it's hard to tell which is which. Generally, if they're smiting unbelievers, (like Cortez) they're Christians, and if they're collecting jewlery and wearing dresses (like all of the popes) they're hellbound mary-worshippers, their bloody entrials being future lubricant for the rape-rooms of the eternal abyss.
On Monasteries:
The idea behind a monstery is to retreat away from the world. We want to advance and conquer for the Lord of Hosts, we want the entire WORLD to be our monastery.
But as for Medieval monasteries, often they were close by nunneries, and there are tales of heterosexual behavior. I think only when protestants left that the remaining homos took total control over the Catholic Church.
Think of it like after the Rapture: with republicans gone, the democrats will take over the country, resulting in gay orgies in every public park, and at least one gay couple rimjobbing on every street corner. In short, America will be a cesspool - but one cannot look at that and say America had always been a cesspool. Before the Rapture, it had been half-sane and half-cesspool. Well, that's what the Catholic world was like, and the reformation was like a rapture of sorts.
So, I'm sure those monasteries would have had a handful of True Christians™ who could smack the nancyness out of the others, but when they left to become protestants, all hell broke lose - literally.
Restaurant Review: The Chow Factory:
Hm, normally I don't like slumming, but it seemed like most of the middle-class people there had bathed and were mostly free from diseases, so I actually had a good time. The wine list was pathetic though - when nothing on the list is over 500$, why bother with a list at all?
I disaprove of tipping, such acts of so-called "charity" are the same as welfare, turning humble people who accept their lot into greedy, entitled-feeling whiners.
Overall, I think the Chow Factory is alright, the food is very fatty, and that's a good thing: I think there are too many skinny people in church, and that's making us look bad:
Proverbs 28:25: He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.
Skinny people have not put their trust in the Lord. That's why Africans and Indians are so skinny, while God-fearing America has been made fat by the Lord. However, look around you and you'll notice that even here there are not enough GOD-trusters around. Landover Baptist Church must set an example for the nation: so chow down!
