Taxes, Churches and the US Government
From my youth, I found nothing wrong with tax exempt status for churches. Indeed, I was among the majority thinking it was a good idea.
Over the years, I’ve gradually changed my mind. By providing tax exempt status, Uncle Sam can control the actions & activities of the churches. Right now, they claim they cannot maintain their tax exempt status and take part in politics.
There are at least three problems with this. First, the scope of the definition of politics keeps enlarging. Most certainly this will continue, eventually envading the very foundations of Christianity. Already, it has started and it will only get worse.
Secondly, in many cases, the IRS intentionally go after churches and church oriented organizations (such as Christian schools) they don’t like. All the while, they ignore organizations they do like. [Incidentally, this is blatantly unconstitutional. The government may not prosecute one organization and let another do the same thing. ]
Third, it is an indirect method of providing funding of a political group while blocking another. It’s not just illegal; it’s blatantly wrong…encouraging churches to sin in the sight of God.
To my way of thinking, a preacher in a church should not have any restrictions on what is said behind the pulpit. It is indeed fundamental to the First Amendment. The exempt status is simply an end around run at that Amendment and the Constitution, itself.
Likely, the best way around the exception is for the churches to simply don’t claim exempt status. This would make it difficult for them to complete with other churches. On the other hand, it would free the preachers to do that which they should do anyway. Perhaps, it will give Christians from other churches some much needed guidance as well.
Regardless, I wonder. Would the church that speaks out really lose that many members? Would the members they lose be that much of a loss.
Mostly, it is time we send a message. God is not subject to the dems. Those who subject themselves to God, serve the LORD rather than man. In my way of thinking, that would be a good thing…for the Christians, for the churches and for the USA. However, I think that the dems wouldn’t like it so much.
Three Votes
The mother gets a vote. The doctor gets a vote and the unborn baby has a vote.
In general, the baby’s vote is ignored. Even if his vote does count, he is easily out voted by a money hungry doctor and a uncaring mother. The baby loses his life to self-centered selfishness.
And, of course, the dems stand by and cheer.
Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema Leaving Dems!
Now if only 8 or 10 more of them would wise up.
Think it will happen?
We can hope and Pray.
I fear that without the prayer, there’s not much hope.
Perhaps Nixon’s Greatest Mistake
I guess there are those who call out mistakes made by Richard Nixon. However, I suspect his biggest mistake was after the election in which Kennedy was declared the winner. He chose not to contest the votes in and near Chicago.
Most historians will quickly agree that had he contested the votes, he may very well have won the election. Yet he chose not to contest them because he was afraid of the national division it might cause. What he apparently overlooked was that it sent a signal to the democrats. He set the “no contest” pattern.
He basically implied that Republicans would not contest elections of future elections even when the dems cheat. Hence, every election since, the democrats have cheated, and might I say, very effectively? Since that election, there have been many dead voting. People in nursing homes voted, oddly entirely for dems, even when the voter had not even seen a ballot.
In every election since, the dems come up with new methods of putting their thumbs on the election scale. And by the way, whoa to anyone suggesting that there was any kind of voter fraud.
By the way, does not really matter. Laws were broken and people actually admit to it. The problem is that no one in the position to prosecute wants to. Anyone that wants to prosecute can’t. The dems basically control the Justice Department and many of the courts. Even more, the DC courts are critical and completely controlled by the dems. (Over 90% dems in the District of Columbia. No way to convict a dem. No way to defend a Republican.)
Few of us at the time knew, or could even imagine, the damage that was done by that one magnanimous decision made unselfishly by Richard Nixon. It just shows to go, one cannot play nice when it comes to the dems. They have no interest in doing things right. They have no interest in the good of the country or the Constitution. Their only interest is socialism and the power it will provide them.
As a sidenote, I would point out that socialism and the Constitution are mutually exclusive. They cannot co-exist. Hence, for the dems, to win, they must tear down the Constitution and the American way of life. Hence their efforts are to destroy what Americans have spent over two centuries building.
My aside: Fauci is retiring. Maybe we can arrange to put him in a prison cell for the next thousand years.
What Scares Me About Last Election
I could go on tirades about all the lies told by the dems. I could go on and on about the foolishness of open borders and giveaway programs. I might even remind everybody about the stupidity of putting mentally challenged people into office.
The thing is, it’s all pointless. I can shout it from the highest hilltops; distribute it throughout the valleys.
It simply won’t do any good while the vast majority prefer the lies after they hear the truth. It serves no purpose to throw a life preserver to people who prefer to drown.
What scares me is when the people are tossed flashlights, they prefer to live in the dark. No amount of truth will help those who actively prefer to believe the lies.
It is no wonder the dems lie. It is no wonder the great darkness is closing in. It is no wonder that life is leaving when the masses prefer the death.
To be sure, John, in the first chapter of John, tells us that about people preferring the dark. I understood what he said. I believed what he said. I just never before realized just to what degree.
AOC Was Right
As hard as it might be to believe, she was right. It does give credence to the adage that the old broke clock is precisely correct twice a day.
She said most don’t know what capitalism is. Most don’t know what socialism is.
The fact is most Americans would not know the difference if their lives depended on it. It’s a shame because their freedom and their lives do depend on it.
Now I have a question for the congresswoman. If she knows the difference, why does she prefer the worse. It is not that difficult to known which is better.
Just maybe it is that she does know. Just maybe she wants to be part of the elite, formally known as the royalty.
My suggestion is that we all learn the benefits of capitalism before losing our freedom.
Remember, loss of liberty is one generation away. People such as AOC have the desire to take it from us. …and, by the way, she has many comrades. Comrades is cohorts for the commies.
As an aside, AOC ought not brag. The reason most people can’t tell the difference is because the education system failed to teach them. Just another good reason for school choice. Do we really want to send out children to schools that fail or refuse to teach?
Using school choise is an effective form of capitalism. The good schools thrive. Those that can’t or won’t teach fail. Sounds like a good idea to me.
Then again, it just might be AOCs desire to keep our children ignorant.
Just Something About Tantrums
You ever been out in public and see a toddler yelling, kicking and flailing his arms wildly… in other words throwing a tantrum. Though I have no memory of it, I likely threw my share of them. It’s natural for a child. They must be taught to behave themselves or the parent will have real problems as he gets older.
Normally, I keep myself out of the business of other states and certainly other nations.
However, in this case I must record my observations. The Canadian truckers start a demonstration and the PM decided to throw an outright tantrum.
Mind you, I am not trying to tell them who should run their country, especially considering who is running ours. I mean it is their choice. If they want a toddler for a leader, that’s their choice. It’s just an observation. Apparently his parents never taught him that it makes him and those who voted for him look childish.
False Flag Operation
Over and over we hear about a possible false flag operation to come out of Russia. I don’t know. It sort of seems plausible. I SOP for Russians. I know because I have seen it a number of times. At the time they used Pravda to try to convince the world. In some situations, they have used the New York Times, who were more than willing accomplices.
However, it is not my purpose to talk of Russian false flags. Indeed, I just might be wrong but that whole January 6 operation might have been a false flag operation. The FOCs certainly are not above such antics. Moreover, it does have a number of the FOC earmarks.
I saw videos of men encouraging the operation. They were there and now they aren’t. Though they are on videos, no one seems to want to talk to them. If anyone did talk to them, no one wants to say.
They certainly took max advantage of the situation. They have illegally incarcerating people, many for over a year without trial. They have launched a false investigation into anyone and every who knows President Trump…without any evidence. The fourth amendment has no bearing. Even worse, the defendants have no right to discovery. That sounds illegal to me. Sort of sounds like the trials held in places like Venezuela. Sort of looks like a kangaroo court, if I have ever seen one. It’s the sort of thing done by back-wood sheriffs and judges you see in the movies all the time.
Moreover, there were no efforts by Nancy to stop the crowd, though she had to know about them, she refused the help of the National Guard.
Finally, the most incriminating. Police seemed to be beckoning them to enter, even waving to the crowd to enter. No one seemed to try to stop them from entering. No one held up a hand and said stop, please. I saw one policeman running up some stairs a number of times. My first thought was that he was running for his life. As I studied it more closely, he looked more like a tour guide.
Certainly, I don’t put it past the FBI to be part of it. Look what they did for four years, illegally with no proof to President Trump.
However, time continues to march by. In a few months Nancy will lose her gavel and then they will conduct a real investigation into to it all.
Hint, Nancy: You just might want to buy a ticket to China. We won’t be able to touch you and I am sure they will welcome you. On the other hand, she just might have to give up her favorite flavor of ice cream.
The Dem’s Tightrope
The Dem’s, aka friends of the criminals, need to take care. They keep putting pressure on a couple of their own in hopes of ridding the Senate of the filibuster. They walk a dangerous tightrope. If they apply too much pressure, they could lose one or two senators from their ranks. Even if they lose one, they stand in danger of losing their 50 majority. This is true even should they become independent. They would only have 49 (maybe 48) senators while the Republicans would have 50. That would mean the majority would possibly go to the Republicans.
I am sure that most realize what that means. However, I am especially sure that Fauci knows. If such a thing happens, he will likely buy a ticket to China. If he doesn’t he will wish he did. It is quite possible, maybe plausible that he will face committee meetings that world will find out his part in the pandemic. China will be the only nation on earth where he might be safe after that. Then again, he might not be safe there either.
As an aside, it is also conceivable that those senator(s) just might be joined by other senators who will be clinging to the seats. This might be followed by a few representatives jumping the proverbial ship. Ol’ Nancy can’t afford much of that. The next thing she knows, she might lose her gavel before the mid-terms.
As an aside to the aside, the occupier and the vice occupier will not like that… not at all. Neither will the squad.
