The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

When It Comes to Human Lives, Don’t Tell Me to “Agree to Disagree” Because I Might Reply with Damnation to You

It is not politics when it comes to human lives, human justice, human rights, and humanity living together in community and not as cliques which control other human beings. Lives have been lost in the Middle East due to an asswipe called the Man-baby who has no idea why he did it. That tells me he is a puppet of not only billionaires but also the Netanyahu Zionists of Israel. Zionism is a HAWKISH sect of the Jewish religion and I don’t like them as much as I don’t like those of the local Baptist Church and Christian Nationalists who believe anyone who does not believe as they do are heathens and heretics.

Those are NOT the words of a 1st Century Jewish man named Jesus Christ. My belief is that Christ is my Savior, in spite of the asswipes called Christian Nationalists who do not know the truth about Jesus Christ nor do they even understand the truth about Christ. So there. They claim we are all heathens. I just called that sect of asswipes heathens. Makes me feel better, don’t you know?

Zionism is actually similar to the 1st Century Zealots who were hawks and had one member of their group betray Jesus Christ and then he hung himself. His name was Judas Iscariot. Perhaps there was a purpose for Judas to betray Jesus Christ, but he realized his mistake and took his life, rather than repent for what he had done and change his ways. “Poor Judas” were two words used in song lyrics of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s rock musical, Jesus Christ Superstar. “Poor old Judas.”

Is it not time to say, “poor old Zionists and Netanyahu?” The ones who the Man-baby Trumpty Dumpty follows blindly along with Putin of Russia. The Man-baby proves that he has no brain of his own nor does he do any thinking to consider the overall picture. He is a puppet and only does what the Man-baby thinks will be best for his egotistical narcissistic ways.

In this environment, what we have during this Holy Week of 2026 is something similar to the “Saturday Night Massacre” of 1973 when Nixon fired several people due to the Watergate scandal. Just by coincidence (and I am saying ONLY coincidence, unless something proves otherwise), at that time (1973), oil prices were soaring so high that we lowered the speed limit on the interstates to 55 MPH, set up car pools, and made other attempts for consumers – you know, the DEMAND SIDE OF THE CAPITALIST MARKET – to save money and not be pushed when the envelope was pushed to extremes. One may recall driving four hours to attend college as a freshman and frequently car pooling on the trip to college and back.

What we have today, on Good Friday (3 April 2026) is a Judas-type asswipe in charge of this nation and we are there “when they crucified my LORD by killing other people. For Christ said, “those who do the least of these things to others, they do it to me.” The evil one with the Zionists are doing murder to the least of those in humanity because Christ believed in all people. Much to the chagrin of the Jews of his day, he spoke with people he was not supposed to speak with. A Samaritan woman. A prostitute. A leper. A hated tax collector. He said we need to love one another, which, according to a Lutheran pastor who wrote a book about James, the brother of Jesus, said is based IN the Jewish religion. Netanyahu and the Zionists, like Judas the Zealot, are NOT acceptable Jews, just as the American Christian Nationalists and the Man-baby in charge are NOT true Christians. Thus, this week, we viewed the “Holy Week Massacre.”

Furthermore Netanyahu and the Zionists demonstrate what it means with the oppressed becoming the oppressors. It happened with the fucking gentile puritans in the USA. It has happened with Roman Catholics, too. In 1948, the USA and its WWII allies were so comforting to the plight of the Jews in Europe, they helped them set up the nation we call Israel. The intent was not to make oppressors out of those who were oppressed, but to bring freedom to the Jews. When they fought, it was in defense of their land. This crap today is offensive and I mean obnoxious offensive done by oppressors who need to be shut down. Stop being like Judas Iscariot, you asswipes.

The person who told me, today, it was okay for us to “agree to disagree,” I say this. Your attitude sucks because I was addressing issues related to humanity not the fucking Man-baby and his fascist dictatorship which goes against humanity. It is NOT about politics when I am FORCED to pay a huge cost for injections in the eye while all other developed nations have FREE HEALTHCARE. Besides this consideration, there is another consideration. I spent almost 50 years paying into Medicare and could figure a large amount of money. It is a huge sum of money when it is added together, PLUS the fact I STILL INVEST IN MEDICARE TODAY WHILE BEING RETIRED. I SHOULD have access to the money so as to not pay huge amounts for healthcare. But due to the sabotage of people like the fucking Man-baby, we don’t get what we invested in a scenario of CAPITALIST ROI. What is ROI? Look it up in the dictionary, you dickheads. You MAGA shitheads. You fucking lousy ones who call us “Dumocrats” when we attempt to reason about CAPITALIST ROI. And where is MY MONEY GOING? To kill people in the Middle East, not for healthcare for the living. Fuck the USA military and the hawks running the Dept. of Offensiveness, not the Dept. of DEFENSE. Fuck all of you because you have pushed the envelope far beyond what our Founding Fathers would have accepted.

My apologies for becoming so irritated, but I am fed up with dismissing me with “agree to disagree” when it comes to human issues. That is fucking lousy thing to say to me. The stupid ones who cannot THINK are not even looking at things from an overall broad picture and are unable to discern right from wrong. We expect a secular government in the USA because we have FREEDOM OF RELIGION. Just because I use such words does NOT negate the fact that I believe in love for one another – unconditional love. Because we have a leadership which really sucks and tries to force their hawkish ways upon all of us – an attitude opposite to love and called hatred. Besides, I have seen more use of the “f” word on Facebook by people whom I have known rarely use the word. What is the fucking Man-baby going to do? Line us all up like the Jews in Europe and gun us down into mass graves? That is called genocide.

As a result, we end up in this nation with a fucking lousy leadership which crucifies our LORD. We shall overcome.

From the LORD’S prayer:

Thought for the Day: 24 March 2026

“When a man gives up his moral values, there is nothing left.” A line from the series, M*A*S*H, spoken by a character named Col. Sherman T. Potter. He was replying to a soldier who was speaking about how his morality was that any person any human should not have sex outside of marriage. Col. Potter was encouraging the soldier because the soldier had to defend his morals against nasty and bullying fellow soldiers who claimed “he does not like girls.” The issue was not whether he liked girls. The question was his belief in procreative sex and how strong a feeling that was for him.

Kind of explains me when I was growing up. I relate to that soldier with morals. However, I do not believe I should force my moral beliefs upon others, just as bullies should not be forcing their IMMORAL beliefs upon others. I can TEACH others my moral beliefs. I should not PREACH my moral beliefs and values to others, just as homophobic bastards in churches should not PREACH their homophobic beliefs to others or PREACH their beliefs about whether clergy can only be straight men and women and LGBT+ should not be clergy.

Along those lines, it is not right to preach and judge humans with regard to recreational sex. If humans are unable to produce children, perhaps due to different reasons, they should be able to choose recreational sex. Such recreational sex may go along with a same-sex relationship. There should be no judgments made by human beings. Such people who do such judgments are evil, influenced by demons who promote a lack of confidence, and are influenced by the evil one some call Lucifer or the devil or Satan or…

Jesus Christ said, “judge not lest you be judged” (Gospel book of Matthew, chapter 7, verses 1-2). PREACHERS do too much f***ing judging of others. Those who do the judging anyway and use the “sin book” (Romans) are mixed up cowards who lack confidence about living our human lives together in community and society and living in an environment with peace and justice. Peace cannot happen without justice.

Precious Memories of Lawrence Welk & Company

Tonight, once again, the Lawrence Welk Precious Memories program was broadcast by Binghamton’s PBS channel, WSKG. It brings back precious memories to me. We should be thankful for such programs, in spite of the cuts in revenue by the Man-baby and stupid fascist Republicans in their cuts to PBS.

The hymns sung on this program brought back precious memories of the last days my Grandma Mary (Albro) Cornwell living at our home at 26 Main Street in the valley. Grandma Cornwell had survived a heart attack and was living with us. At age seven, I would sit with my grandmother as she listened to hymns being sung by Tennessee Ernie Ford. “The Rugged Cross.” “Amazing Grace.” Many others.

The one most remembered was the Church in the Wildwood. It was a brown church. But because we attended the white church next door to our home, I always changed the word in the hymn from brown to white. It was simply because it was a wooden church painted white, not brown. That’s all.

Such programs as Lawrence Welk programs may be of interest to only a minority of people in the media market, but we are important. We in the minority pay for sports, religious programs, and, as with Dish Network, porn. We pay for many programs and have to endure the lousy stupid productions and stupid commercials which are nothing but farsical at most. We in this minority can only ask that we be respected for the low cost programming we enjoy more with PBS. Programs like Lawrence Welk and culture – so forth. If you are unable to give us R-E-S-P-E-C-T, then all I can say is that I hope you can fall flat on your faces.

Neither democracy nor capitalism are about serving a simple majority of people. It is about serving all the people.

My criticism is not about whining. It is about stopping the movement to remove from the minority what we in the minority enjoy. After all, without watching any sports, we still pay for those million-dollar salaries of overpaid athletes. We need to have some of that money back in the form of government funding of PBS, NPR, and APM. Precious moments means many things to many people. The first NFL super bowl might be a precious memory to some. Or the Amazing Mets of 1969 might be a precious memory to some. But for many of us, we have precious memories in media programs like Lawrence Welk or Ed Sullivan or Kristen Chenowith or Renee Fleming or. Perry Mason or MASH or .. others. We are paying for a lot of shit on television which apparently is enjoyed by the “in” crowd for which we are not in that “in” crowd. When we say”life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all,” we mean it. It is not “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for the large majority in the ‘in’ crowd.”

Consider this. If you say, “nobody listens to Lawrence Welk,” then you are low-life scum because there are many of us who are “nobody.” We can have R-E-S-P-E-C-T for what you enjoy. Now. Have R-E-S-P-E-C-T for the rest of us who are the “nobody” in the world. Otherwise, your words become lies told over and over again to such an extent that it becomes the truth – the truth for those in the “in” crowd who don’t give one damn about those NOT in the “in” crowd. You lack so much confidence that you resort to lying in order to force everyone to believe and enjoy what you do.

What I say is about how to maintain a civilized democratic capitalist society with balance, not a barbaric one like that of the Roman Empire where they got their jollies from watching gladiators kill one another or Christians being killed by lions in an arena or… All as a spectacle in their lives. Barbarism is sick. The entire set of ideas in which our Almighty God wanted us to follow was to love one another. Period. No if, ands, or buts about it.

For me and many others, we learned that principle from the example and Gospel of Jesus Christ. But other religions do teach love for one another. Those precious memories come from family and the religious organization which taught me such principles. Sadly, such teaching has been eliminated today and that needs to be changed. We don’t need to become “churchy” people again. We need to come together to encourage one another to have a love for a deist or god of the universe because that deist or god loves the human race made in the image of such a deist for the purpose of having a civilized human race which loves one another. We can do this in different ways and do not have to fall back on the methods used in the past. By coming together we teach one another and the younger ones the importance of love for one another.
