Keep Praying for America

But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.  Amos 5:24

People keep asking, “What can I do? They’re rich and powerful, they’ve stolen our country, and what can I do?”

But we should also be asking, “What can God do?” And pleading with Him to do it.

Individually, we can’t do much. Coming together as 75 million angry citizens demanding their rights, we might do more. Show ourselves in rallies, at least. It might wake up a Congressman or two.

Do we believe in God, and in His righteousness? Will He let stand the foulest crime ever committed against America, the theft of this past presidential election, and give the ungodly their hearts’ desire? Will He allow those who mock Him to go unpunished?

God forbid.

One thing we can all do, should do, and must do, is to pray. Tens of millions of prayers every day, and more than once a day.

Our sins have landed us in all this trouble. We need to beg God for His mercy. We are sickened by the perversion of justice, the corruption, the filth: we need to beg God for His judgment: the judge of all the earth will surely do right.

We don’t know how He’ll handle it. His moves cut deeper than those of any chess master. He may let Democrats just keep marching until they march right off the cliff. We may be in for some desperately hard times. We need to pray for faith, so we can trust in Him.

O Lord our God! Deliver us out of the hands of the ungodly, and utterly confound them. They’ve filled our country with abominations and have only just begun their work of destroying it. But in Jesus’ name, and by the power of Jesus’ name, fight for us, O God! Let all the world see your power; that all the world might know that you are God.

Let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. Let it sweep away the wicked.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

‘Memory Lane: DIY T.V. Repair’ (2016)

Were I just a few years younger, I’d be too young to have seen this technology, let alone remember it. This is a culture that’s no longer with us.

Before there were transistors, printed circuits, browsers and whatnot… there were vacuum tubes.

Memory Lane: DIY T.V. Repair

I can’t explain what a vacuum tube is or what it does, although my father and my uncle could. All I can tell you is that when I was a little boy, a TV set was chock-full of vacuum tubes. And there was this cool tube-testing machine at the local hardware store, where you could find out which tubes had to be replaced.

We don’t even have a hardware store anymore–to say nothing of persons who could take apart any appliance, fix what was wrong with it, and put it back together so it works. My father could do that with every appliance in his home. I can only shake my head in awe and wonderment.

Encore, ‘The Sussex Carol’

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Well, no one has requested any hymns this morning, though we should still be in the mood for Christmas carols; so I thought I’d like to encore one of my favorites–The Sussex Carol, first published in the 17th century for surely older than that, performed the old-fashioned way by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band.

We’re not really done with carols, are we? Christmas 2021 is a very long way away…

Have Skinwalkers Invaded Your Neighborhood?

Skinwalkers: Evil that Lurks in Native America » Just Roughin It

You can’t hardly throw a brick around YouTube lately without hitting a skinwalker video. Apparently these are turning up everywhere.

The surest way to find out whether skinwalkers are prowling around your neighborhood is to stay up all night, every night, peering out your window, and spend all day, every day, looking for wonky footprints and little bits of evil-smelling hair. Or you can simply call your local police every day and ask if they’ve gotten any skinwalker action yet.

I am not sure that the illustration given above is entirely accurate. I have heard of skinwalkers who look like TV repairmen. Others resemble crossing guards. Make sure you go door to door warning everyone in your neighborhood to be on the lookout for skinwalkers.

You can also call your Congressional representative every day to demand government action to control skinwalkers. It’s got to be every day or they won’t take you seriously.

Cat Doesn’t Like the Weather

Oh, this brings me back! Our cat Henry didn’t like slush. I’d open the door to let him out, but when he saw what he’d be walking into, he’d go to the other door and make me open that one. Imagine his disappointment when he discovered, every time, that different doors led to the same slushy landscape. He used to blame me for this: he had a special dirty look and cross meow just for me when it wasn’t nice out.

I say the lady in this video is getting off easy.

Epstein… Lives?

The rumors are flying hot and heavy now. Attorney Linn Wood says pedophile hustler Jeffrey Epstein’s still alive (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-lin-wood-jeffrey-epstein-alive-b1781084.html). Epstein supposedly committed suicide last year while confined in a maximum security prison… under suicide watch.

Well, that’s hard to believe–not that anyone in the world believes Epstein hanged himself in his cell. It’d make a great movie plot: protect the guy by pretending he killed himself, get a crooked doctor to do the autopsy, and then trot Epstein out to point the finger at his mob of pedophile customers. And name their names. Wow!

Meanwhile, we still hear Democrat/socialist fanatics claiming “no fraud took place” during 2020’s travesty of a presidential election. Never mind the boxcar-loads of evidence–sworn statements, videos, etc., etc. That election stank to high heaven.

And we have our Free & Independent Nooze Media Inc. swearing it was clean.

It must not stand.

What’s going to happen to our republic? If they can rig elections–which it certainly seems they did–then we have no republic anymore.

God help us.

False Facts Raise Funds for Quokka U.

Fun facts about the Quokka, the happiest animal on earth

G’day and Happy New Year, everybody! Byron the Quokka here–as deputy provost in charge of something-or-other here at Quokka University. And I’m here to thank Acme False Facts Inc. for providing another fund-raiser for our university, a special False Facts card set, with half the proceeds going to Quokka U.

Here are a few samples from this special set of False Facts.

*The country of Spain disappeared for three days in July, 1888–and no one noticed.

*The Roman Emperor Hadrian had a pet squid named Dion who would do a soft-shoe routine on command. Said a visiting Pictish chieftain, “Who knew it could even be done on ten legs?”

*If consumed in sufficient quantities, Nabisco Shredded Wheat forces you to relive other people’s past lives. It does take an awful lot of Shredded Wheat, though.

*Highway No. 404 in Tajikistan takes motorists deep underwater in the Indian Ocean. No one has ever come back.

*In 1867 a baker named Postlethwaite, hired to create a special birthday cake for Napoleon III, missed so many deadlines that he brought on the Franco-Prussian War in 1870.

Remember–False Facts are even better than real facts, because no one can find anything to disprove them. But you have to speak them with conviction! Only then do you get a reputation for knowing things that no one else knows.

We are also selling season tickets for our pick-up sticks team. All we need now is a season.

Pea-Brained Anti-Christs

666 Mark of the Beasts Stalin, Mao, Hitler & Socialism | Daniel Ruth News - He is exposed & defeated (again!)

I posted this nice medieval hymn this morning, Gaudete: “Rejoice, for Jesus Christ is born of Mary.” But I didn’t post the comments that came with it.

This one in particular: “All that burning and boiling people alive just for thinking freely–it makes me sick!”

Religious wars perpetrated by Christians, mostly against other Christians, were indeed a monstrous sin. But they’ve kind of gone out of fashion since the 1600s, and it’d probably be pretty hard to get one started up today. Like, we don’t do that anymore. And it never, never, never had anything to do with Jesus Christ or His teachings in the first place!

But just to set the record straight–Dude, move to China and try to do some “thinking freely” over there, and see what happens to you. See if your ignorance will protect you there.

In the 20th century alone, more people were murdered by their own socialist governments (“Nazi” is short for “National Socialist”; you could look it up) than were killed by all the world’s religions in all the preceding centuries put together. We don’t have an exact count, but demographers and historians are sure it’s more than 100 million–all done to death by Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Lenin, Castro, Pol Pot–and in peacetime, no less.

There are many people still alive who saw it. But there’s no one left over from the Thirty Years War.

Europe’s religious wars of the 16th-17th centuries were sins against God, against His holy catholic church, and against the human race. You can blame them on bad Christians, but not on Jesus Christ or anything He said or did. We repent, and pray such things never happen again.

But when was the last time you heard a communist repent?

‘Help Wanted: Blathering Numbskull’ (2015)

These jokes are expensive!

This is just one of countless Obama-era horrors and monstrosities which will be revisited upon us if the fraudlent election of an organ grinder’s monkey is allowed to stand.

Help Wanted: Blathering Numbskull

Yes! By hiring some twaddler to prattle about “diversity and inclusion” and make sure people’s minds are right–because Diversity is all about coerced uniformity–the Internal Revenue Service proposed “to help make America stronger.” You wonder why people are not struck by lightning for saying such things.

 

‘Gaudete’

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

No one got around to entering this carol in the carol contest: a medieval Christmas carol, Gaudete–whose lyrics tell us, in Latin, to rejoice, for Jesus Christ is born of Mary.

Performed by the Choir of Clare College, Cambridge, and the London Cello Orchestra.
