HIV activist dies 02 23 2024

 So a woman who was born with HIV has died at the age of 39.

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/21/us/hydeia-broadbent-dead.html

But that brings up questions.  

How many people are born with Aids?

400 babies around the world every day are born with it.

https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=can+people+with+aids+have+children

Do I see a congenital eye abnormality in the woman who died at 39 from it?

What is the life expectancy of someone who is born with HIV?

From google search results:

"How long can a baby born with HIV live?
Evidence shows that without timely treatment, one third of children infected with HIV at birth will die by age one, and half by age two.

Treatment in Children Living with HIV

childrenandaids.orghttps://www.childrenandaids.org/paediatric_treatment

"

It leads me to think of many other questions, perhaps about the virality of undercooked pork and chicken?  Does undercooked meat lead to illnesses that we don't know the cause of?  And perhaps you want to say to me, we already know that isn't how it is and that isn't right.  From my observation we don't already know a lot of what we or you think we do.  In fact we are very poor at determining causality.  Just factor in the almost half the country that votes Republican, then think of the industries these people work and "Contribute to" and you come to the conclusion that we don't know a lot about causality.
And perhaps you want to say you don't know what I am talking about.  Then get the heck out of here and never read any of my articles and essays again.

Did you notice that I made up a word that should already be in existence?  Not virility but virality?  It is like they would use the meaning of that word to describe the popularity of a media event before using the meaning of it to describe the susceptibility to and spread of a virus?

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/virality
 
Merriam doesn't recognize it.

I find that odder than the number 13.

Hey, I'm just "talking."  If it bothers you, go on and get.

The Thougth Just Occured to Me 02 23 2024

 That if you home test positive for Covid 19 Variants you ought to be able to call the "911 ambulance" and they come with that effective shot/injection that they have for it and quickly administer it at your home.

Or instead of that you should be able to drive to where the ambulances are dispatched from and they have that shot that works for it there on hand to give to you.

I mean do we want to be serious and effective about Government or do we want to be blusterous and fatuous windbags about Government?

Is it meant to serve the people or is it meant to serve the fatuous and blusterous?

If they can diagnose you on the spot as being wild and give you a ketamine (?)  shot how come that same 911 type of help phone call can't get you the most effective Covid-19 antidote?

What is wrong with keeping the people we already have?  Rather than promote the idea that new people from unknown origins are better than the rest of us, are a better asset than those who grew up knowing what the Constitution meant and what it meant to abide by it? 

Which brings me to my next point; I wonder if our United States Constitution has been accurately and precisely translated into languages like Spanish?  I wonder if it can be, knowing nuances of language representational meanings and context?

******'

Oh Jesus Christ, it is like a sick bureaucratic maze themed science fiction movie isn't it; getting the effective shot for Covid-19?  Can you see the lead character?  Call him "No Shame Donald?"

The real diagnosis of Mental Retardation? 02 22 2024

When you are talking to someone and they can't follow a human stream of consciousness!

It is like there are swiss cheese holes in their brain that prevent them from following a human stream of consciousness.

As they are pretending to listen that electrical synapse finds its way to the edge of one of those stinky swiss cheese holes and stops right there, leaving the look of confusion on their face.

That stinky hole in your brain is what you made yourself into.  Or perhaps you are just the (FAS?) embodiment of your mothers hatred of life?

A National Problem Is 02 22 2024

 The "bad" asserting that they should be granted more rights for being bad.

I am not going to get into the who is who of it right now.  But perhaps attempt to touch on a trend that might have helped create it.

What happens when you free a man from prison but you say that he can no longer have a gun?  Essentially you are asserting that man (or woman) is bad and will always be bad.

And you are also granting them freedom at the same time.  Being free from prison and the right to be bad at the same time.  That is right!  By freeing them you declared that they have the right to be bad.  Again, because they no longer are allowed to have a gun you are indeed asserting that they are bad and always will be bad.  Hence you granted them the right to be bad and free.

Oh big deal you say.  Well perhaps on an individual level with regard to making that decision it seems right?  However on a larger scale application and I would even go so far as to use the terminology "empirical evidence" it is destructive to a democracy to allow the bad to be bad, and assert that they should have more rights because they are bad.

Do we destroy all the guns?  Then we have no national defense.  As much as you don't want that blatant fact to be true it is true.  So how do you prevent a freed criminal from getting a gun?  There is no way to.  What if you removed their hands?  That would do it.  That would do it wouldn't it.  Just a horrible thought I know.  I know it is.  But I am only saying it to prove a point.  You would say that they couldn't work if you did that?

Someone who will end up back in prison isn't going to be good and work.  I would assert that the bad can not be good.  They needed to start off being good in life and stay that way.  And perhaps there is a bad element of the Kings Religion in this country that facilitated the untruth?  The Lutheran false idealism that it doesn't matter how you live your life as long as at the hour of your death you ask to be saved.  That is patronizing the bad.  Perhaps it works in England where the wealthy live in fenced in castles and the poor amongst themselves in a pool of liver? 

So what you have their is the wealthy out of touch with the lives of the "We the people"

For a Democracy to survive it needs to be comprised of good people and have good people as its leadership.

You can't have leaders that frequent with prostitutes or legalize satanic religions as charity.  That is bad.  Who does a person like that have commonality with?  You know can't we be a little more fair to the human race than that?  "What does that person have commonality with?"

Good leadership recognized when crimes are committed by someone that doesn't have a soul.  Bad leadership asserts that the problem is the people who don't have a soul need equal or greater rights than "We the people."

A little edgy diatribe.  To be sure, it is.

But back up to the hands mention.  The only way that you could truly assure that evil does no evil is... But in doing so you are asserting that they are truly evil.

Luddite comes from the word leadite? Someone that was lead poisoned?  Someone that hates technology because they don't understand it?  Someone who would view all powertools as being dangerous because they would never be able to understand "the ins and outs of them?"  (Oh Jesus Christ, what image of an imbecile does that form in your mind?)  So are some of those who opt for gun control really luddites?  Imposing that lesser backward standard on the rest of a Democracy that thrived by using tools, not for doing evil, but for developing a nation and thereby creating wealth.

And a Computer is a tool.  But when you see Computer hackers?  That China is hacking our entire infrastructure?  How do you prevent an ex software pirate criminal from being one?  Do you know that the once wealthiest man in the United States was initially guilty of that?  That he later went on to be knighted by the Queen of England?  As yourself what George Washington would have said about that?  Black people probably blindly hate him, don't they?  He owned slaves?  Yesterday was Presidents Day.  White people love George Washington because he fought against a nation that wanted to enslave them.  He fought against a nation that believed an asserted genetically superior blood lines should rule as Divine Right Kings.  And you had a foreign nation to them rise up and do the same in conflict in WW2.  Divine Right for those of you who chewed gum and couldn't sit still in history class, is where one does not think about their actions but just uses the defense for everything that they do as being, "God talks or acts directly through them."  The Catholic Church used to propagandize that belief to.  They used to tell you that god talked to priests and acted through them.  The truth is they committed thousands of soulless criminal acts throughout the world.  I worked at a prestigious investment firm in Chicago, located at the 96th floor of the Sears Tower at that time.  The secretary to the President told me that at parties the Catholic Priests were all openly gay there.  Deceit is bad to me, is it bad to you?  I view bad as bad.

We also see it with the Christian faith, they will approach you and just beg you that Jesus Christ be your savior?  My good soul is what saves me.

I know what someone wants to do.  They want to find something I wrote somewhere.  One line in perhaps 5 million words, point their evil crooked finger at it, and think, "I will contrive a way to condemn you for this!"

First Amendment right to free speech.  Basically, all of our rights need to be expanded and not constricted.  Ooh, there is one isn't it!  "Rights Constrictors."

I would spell and grammar check this but my cursor has a tendency to go wild and erase things.  Remember that paragraph about computer hackers?

You know how 2 16 2024

 You know how you see people slicing food with a butcher knife and you are concerned they could cut themselves doing that?

Well that happened to me tonight.

Took about 1/4 of the fingernail on my left index finger straight off.   It also took a 1/8" layer at the tip.  But my skin is thick there. So I took my swiss army knife scissors and cut that hanging off or hinged skin off.  

So that is my left hand.

On my right I accidently got my thumb banged in a car door on December 2nd on a sight seeing trip to a lake and there is only half a fingernail there now.

I may just sit  in one spot or lie down and just do absolutely nothing for days or perhaps weeks or months or years.  For fear of having an accident if I don't.  Learned helplessness.

1 dollar chicken pot pies from now on.  No more home made French fries.  No more homemade applesauce.  No more trips to the lake.

See you later.

Affordable Housing Real Estate Moguls 02 16 2024

 Enough of those half filled office buildings.  Enough of that buy a skyscraper and borrow from that asset immediately in order to buy another skyscraper.

I would change all the loop holes in order to eliminate that.

But what if you could instead create housing for the homeless?  And the people who created that long lasting, viable and maintained structures are the ones who got rich?

I am not talking about rich slum lords.

A slum lord buys properties cheap, doesn't maintain them, raises the rent and creates a necessitated economic drain and also a "blight community."

I am talking about legislation that prevents that from happening.  But also legislation that creates clean fair housing for the poor.

And perhaps there need to be non alcohol use requirements for that housing?

But just think of the logic thread of it.  The person creating homes for people to live in should be the one getting rich anyway?  Not the one creating empty office buildings that serve as a western facade or front for something horrible.

And perhaps there can be an element of art to it to?  Instead of a mega architecture firm making the money for the design the starving artist draws what unique features it (building) could have and it is drafted.

What I am getting at is eliminating economic funnels that funnel all the money to one bad person of a wiccan overseas religion?  And perhaps there needs to be more legislation to keep our good money in our good nation.  Our good money being attributed to our good Constitution and not a good ole boy network of criminal nepotism.

A Constitutional Mandate to Publish All Comments 02 14 2024

 For example it is okay for Microsoft to say a comment doesn't conform to their standards.  Even though it contains absolutely no profanity.

However in the United States ALL comments should be allowed to be published. everywhere!

And if the venue doesn't like it they can tag or annotate the Comment to say it doesn't comply with their standards but are required to publish it.

You would get a pretty good idea of who is who from those published comments right away!

It should be law because it complies with the United States Constitution right to free speech on a public platform.

The absence of that freedom reshapes our Democracy into something it wasn't meant to be and something that is counter to what it was created to be.

There are Standards in the United States Constitution 01 14 2024

Freedom of Speech.  Freedom of Religion.  The right to own a Firearm.  Slavery is illegal.  There shall be no excessive fines.  No cruel or unusual punishment.

And those subjects are not to be subjected to a "Bleeding heart standard."  Whereby one administration allows people in who will never be able to live at that standard.

Freedom of speech means I can say anything I want to you and expect that you will neither get violent with me or suicidal because of what I said to you.  But Republican George Bush's Patriot Act that created hate speech laws violates that concept.

Do we lessen the standard of firearm ownership or infringe on it because we have a demographic that is highly likely to use one to commit suicide?  No.

All men are created equal.  And yet at that time some only got 3/5 of a vote?

Now lets say that fully automatic firearms were legal.  What would happen?  Some kid that went home from school because they made fun of him because he stuttered grabbed one and went on a shooting spree?

It's not our fault he stutters? Is it because his parents drank alcohol pre and during conception and during the mothers pregnancy?  I would say likely. Whatever that kid comes out of the womb to be, it isn't our fault it is it's parents!  Be honest and ask yourself how that standard of gun ownership needs to be maintained?  And you likely didn't know that the reason a lot of countries didn't want to attack us on our homeland is because they knew there would be a gun coming at them from around every corner.

And I believe that eventually you are able to legally dwindle the instance of the type of people who would do that (shoot people because they made fun of them for stuttering, etc.) to ZERO!

What I am getting at is we need to maintain our standards in order to maintain our Constitution and the freedom it represents.

Let me put it another way.  We fought a War over slavery.  A bloody War.  Let's say that every so often we find someone enslaves someone in the United States?  Perhaps it is into prostitution.  Does that mean that they get a slap on the wrist and let go for that enslavement?  Or does it mean that we have to execute them so that it doesn't end up all to be that way again and we have to fight a civil war to end it!

I am for the former.

What about education?  What happens when a high percent of the population can't learn?  You are then creating a wealth class that can easily control them and also control those who do not have money and can learn.

Now let's talk about death from drugs?  To me it is poisoning someone to death.  I would call someone that poisoned someone to death a witch.  And here is what I believe.  Every time there is a death from fentanyl or heroin, there should be a mandatory legal sentencing and execution of the person who gave or sold that to them.  If you think witchcraft is a valid religion, I would just ask how you would refute what I said.  Donald Trump thinks witchcraft is a valid religion as he signed off on that during his admin?  He likely thought it would benefit him in some way? 

With regard to my freedom of speech.  Isn't it a great shame that I am afraid to say or write that name Fentanyl?  And you likely know why.  It has to do with someone owning the rights to that name.  I mean just look at the horror represented by that violation of your freedom of speech.  And instances like that resonate and crawl all the way through the foundation of our Democracy.

When someone is guilty of cruel or unusual punishment or imposing excessive fines should they be let go with a slap on the wrist?  Whose Kingdom is that?  Whose henchmen are those that are being let go?

Does Freedom of Religion mean that we are not to question someone else's agreed upon meaning of God?  Even Jesus questioned the validity of God with his last words, "Father (God the Father), why have you forsaken me?"

I do not believe Donald Trump is a valid leader for our Democracy.

You know, part of the standard is also this: you are expected to be able to read the Constitution and know what it means.  You are not supposed to come to this country as a yes man who doesn't ask questions and knows if he doesn't that he won't be found out and also that the dirty hand that feeds him won't stop feeding him.

Ps.  You could almost take the following sentence and work up a whole novel around it, "The Dirty Hand That Gave You Drugs."  And I mean even with regard to alcohol, I loathe Politicians who declare we need that revenue?

Jesus Christ 2024

So if Jesus Christ were living in the time of the year 2024 and in the United States where we have freedom of religion...

And if he had his own church.  And if he was away from that church for a little while and when he came back there were merchants that set up shop in that church selling goods.

And he chased them out violently with his staff.

Would he be violating their first amendment right to religion?

That would be point one.

But point two is even better.

Does Jesus have the right to kick or expel that which he believes to be satan from his church? 

Does kicking Satan out of the Church violate Satans right to practice religion?

Satan can practice it in his own church?  But then it isn't religion is it, it is paganism or satanism.  I would define that not to be religion.  Even though our gov has transitioned that to not be the case.  Actually Trump signed off on the side of satan in that one.

The issue comes up with mega churches!  Where the Church owner is a billionaire and drives expensive sports cars.  And commits acts of adultery.  And a whole bunch of crimes like that which are not consistent with being holy. 

I think you have to live the word in order to preach it?

Are you free to practice the misrepresentation of religion?  I would say no.  But look how hard it is to close loopholes?  Look how hard it is to convict Trump even with the best and most true evidence against him.

"You are not here to live in the way of Jesus Christ."  That is a statement that would seem to draw the line between who is of religion and practicing it and who is misrepresenting religion and using it like a "Nonworking business."

And what we also see is Priests and Popes asserting that they have the artistic license to say what religion and a faith is?  When all it really amounts to is changing the rules in hopes that you will attract more contributing donors (Downers?)?

You need to be a Catholic and live the life of one in order to say what is consistent with Jesus beliefs or Holy Beliefs?  And perhaps there are things that Jesus didn't know of that if he did, he would have changed his opinion on or had a different opinion on?

To make a statement because you believes it serves as a shield for being a good man?  To placate one group in doing so? 

To calculate how to use religion to drain a Democracy of the free of money and ruin it?  Jesus would not have been for that.

"Give us this day our daily bread."

Use financial machinations to drain a democracy and then claim that the poor were the less intelligent and therefore poor when in reality the poor were the good and the rich acted criminally?  The most dangerous propaganda being that the rich are of a better genetic bread.  The most dangerous form of non working class being those who believe that they were born into, by definition, genetic superior royalty non working class.  You can see two ugly sides to that if you think about history in those terms.

Foreign Policy 02 10 2024

 So let's say you have a foreign nation whereby the dictator tortures their own citizens.

That country could grow to be a threat to worldwide freedom and the human race.

What is wrong with issuing an ultimatum to that country,

"Either you hand over that dictator or we nuke the whole lot of you?" "Or if you execute them that would meet the requirements of not being nuked too."

How do you initiate change in lesser countries?

Leading by example doesn't seem to work.  Capitalism doesn't seem to present a good "role model" for them to emulate either.  The notion of competition just makes them make their citizens work so hard they can't enjoy any of the fruits of their labor.

And then you say to yourself, what is here that shouldn't be here?

So why does a leader become a dictator like that?  Because they know that they don't have the skills to fairly complete as an individual and never will.  Hence they need to do everything to make everyone else do their work for them.  And there are probably some Americans who idolize that bad idea.

Questions no one asked 02 07 2024

 I wonder what a factory worker in China expects in terms of retirement?

And how long a Chinese factory worker lives, on average, after retirement?

You would think that the United States Government would know statistics like that?

What am I getting at?  Something about complicity?  If someone is complicit with "this" then there are also likely to be complicit with "that."?  And it is the "that" isn't any good for us?

*****'

I mean seriously, you never thought that way?  To some of us that Catholic way of thinking is just natural?  And a great basis to expand natural philosophies on?

How hard is a religion or religious faith to believe in when comparing one religion to another?

For example, in "Lutherism", one believes that it doesn't matter what they do in life as long as at the hour of their death they ask to be saved?  That is about the most simple faith to believe in.

But faith shouldn't be that simple.  Faith shouldn't be understated by religion like that.  And there is an interesting phrase, perhaps a crux of a phrase, "The understatement of faith."

Is a secretive belief a hard faith to believe in or an easy one?  What type of personal identity, if any, does someone who is of a secretive belief have?  How is that good not to have a "personal identity?"  It doesn't really equate to scrubbing floors of the Church and being a Saint for it, does it?  Soullessness?  There are two end of the spectrum on soullessness?  The woman that scrubbed the floors of the Church and is called soulless and a great giving person then their is the worst criminal that commits crimes against humanity.  Why does the Church label the good as being soulless?  If not to say that the true soulless are not to be considered of that characteristic?  And we are talking about a human soul.

Did Jesus Christ tell everyone, all his disciples to tell everyone, that when you can't answer an important question you use the response, "That is the mystery of faith?"  You see that right there, too, is a very easy religion to believe in.  To propagandize that someone really doesn't have to think in order to believe something?  "Don't think about what I am telling you,  just believe it?"  That right there is a cut throat business principle?  "Faith, it is better if you don't think about it.  It is easier for me if you don't think about what faith means.  How many times I gotta tell you dat?"

Perhaps the question becomes, "What am I to think if I am just to believe?"  "What am I to believe about anything if I am not to think about it?  You are implying that I don't need a rational mind that compares in life in order to live?  You are implying that I don't need to have will or assert will in any manner in order to live?"

What type of life is that an advocate of?  What type of life does someone like that live?  Is that fair to them?  Is it fair to the rest of us?  What type of negative example to others do people like that put forth?

How many times in life are you going to be right about decisions in life without thinking in order to make them before you get in big trouble?  And when you are an advocate of that who are you putting responsibility on?  Clear it out, you don't believe in personal responsibility at all, if that is how you live.  So create something like that, call it a religion, and the money flows one way?  While those who believe are like sheep to those who profess it?  Almost a direct quote from Jesus Christ when confronted by the Pharisees.  "No I didn't make myself a God.  Give me a break.  They are like sheep to me."  So it all comes full circle with that tie in.  The reason to have faith, and not question faith, is because you are like a sheep.

© 2024 Thomas Paul Murphy

Can I ask, who would dare say this to you, that to question is to doubt?

What if you and me could use that as a defense to anything?  "For you to question me is for you to doubt."  The common reply would be, "Who the hell do you think you are?"

Ps.

And here is the semantic conclusion, "If you don't know what it means to believe then you have no faith."

 What if everything was carcinogenic accept that forbidden fruit? (Apple?)

If I just accurately understood this for the first time it is hilarious 02 07 2024

Matthew 25:1-46 "Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.

Source. OpenBible.com

It really implies something very sinister is going on?  As if the five women who went out at night without a lamp are one of several things?

1.  End up being wed to the woman bridegroom?

2.  End up being taken as part of a harem?

3.  The foolish women didn't even understand how a lamp works?  Thought everything simple like that should be provided to them?

4.  There is an element here of...that marrying in the dark is a foolish thing to do?

5.  There is an element of they would be foolish because their virginity could be lost?

And it is written from a opportunistic  perhaps criminal mans perspective of the kingdom of heaven?  Five virgins come to your door at night without oil for their lamps?

And perhaps it means this?  If a woman goes out at night and has not oil for her lamp she is going to have to stop somewhere and ask for oil for her lamp in the dark?  And that is a foolish thing for a virgin to do?

But I think number one is the funniest.  They end up meeting their bridegroom.  Perhaps she has a husky deep voice.  And they end up marrying her somehow?

And is there another element here?  The single woman, the virgin, wanting to be mistaken for the woman who is going to get married?  Again, defined by the parable as a foolish thing to do.

So why is it a foolish thing?  For a virgin to go out in the dark without a lamp?  Republicans would  say the more pregnant women the better!  Make it a crime for her to have an abortion, the Bible even tells how to facilitate one.  Is the Bible criminal because of it, Republicans answer it?  Republicans it implies that antiabortion is a foolish thing?  Prolife being contorted contorted to mean that a woman who is raped can't have an abortion?  Why would it dare say that about you?  Republicans, why would the Bible say that you are foolish?  I believe you are foolish too.  The Bible believes you are foolish.  A lot of us believe you are fools.

In fact I could more or less equate this with Republicans being the Antichrist.

Broken Plastic Lids 02 07 2024

 So I have some glass storage containers that I use for leftovers in the refrigerator.

But the lids that came with them are cracked.

Can I be like that Youtube guy that takes a plastic soda bottle and a hair drying and melts it to some other form?

Can I do that and melt that soda bottle to form a new plastic lid for those quart sized containers?  They are circular, about 3" high and perhaps 6 or 7 inches round.

Can it be done?

I haven't researched it first.

Perhaps what I need is a smooth template with rounded edges just the right dimension in order to form that heated plastic over?  Perhaps I need to cut it a little larger than the diameter I need, drill holes around the circumference and stretch it downward on the template to do so?

Perhaps then I very neatly trim off the excess?

A lot of energy goes into making things.  I suppose if you were raised not to know the true value of a dollar and not being wasteful you would say just throw the glass out too and buy new ones?

"Waste not, want not."  Does it come from the Bible?  Not directly but read this. 

Mat 12:25  "Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and no city or house divided against itself will stand."  Source Biblehub.com

Okay, now while I was looking up the origin of that I found something else in the next article.  Be sure not to miss it!

Should Alcohol Be Legal 02 07 2024

 Only if you belief that someone with Down's Syndrome or Fetal Alcohol Syndrome doesn't go through a life of suffering.

And the statistics say that one in 3 of them has suicidal thoughts; so the proof is that they do live a life of suffering.

What would the church that provides alcohol as part of the ceremony tell you?  That Jesus died for our suffering, that we gave it all to him, to GIVE it all to him?  There is no way for someone like that to do that;  that is reality.  They can't pray to be cured because it can't happen,  The genetic physical limitations and deformities will be with them for life.  They will not grow brain matter where that omitted by the sickness was supposed to be and filled up with cerebral spinal fluid instead.

So it is a moral issue.  What do you value?  To place a value on suffering?  Get it?

A heat shield oven to wear when using the stove in order to protect reproduction 02 03 2024

I do believe this invention would prove useful.

The fabric of such apron should have anti-radiation properties.

Good God, Republicans can complain left and right about the low birth rate in this country but they are completely clueless and in denial with regard to scientific principle.

A Notion of Propaganda I am hearing is 02 03 2024

A notion of propaganda I am hearing is somewhat related to the gun control initiative?

That somehow, if we got into WW3, we are not to use nuclear weapons?  Because it was a very bad thing to do?  We should have never done it?  It was wrong?

No, the Japanese had it coming.  They wanted to be included in trading partners and thought of as equal.  However they attacked us unprovoked.  And in battle they kept our prisoners alive and filleted the flesh off of them to eat because they thought it gave them vigor.  No, they had it coming.  As does any nation we could potentially get into WW3 with that has a history of committing crimes against humanity or just plain out is a threat to us and therefore human freedom.

Those nuclear weapons saved the world from a horrible fate.

But it is the same line of thinking as gun control isn't it?

That we shouldn't be responsible or have the authority to make a decision based on nuclear weapons just like the law abiding citizen shouldn't be trusted to own a gun.

The Constitution say's a lot different than this.

I mean good God!

That Second Amendment is almost like a Commandment written in stone!

And I really have no respect for anyone who would tell you otherwise or have you believe otherwise.

Running off at the mouth on the Basketball Court 02 03 2024

 Pardon me, but didn't it use to be called taunting? I may be wrong.

But why do I ask myself why it has any place on the Basketball Court, the Football Field or where there are PROFESSIONAL SPORTS being played. Or non professional.  Why would you want to foster it at the non professional level and have it rise up the ranks of acceptability?  (And isn't that another crux question?)

And on the flipside.  Sure there are bad referree calls and even crooked ref calls.  So you have a right to speak up.

But that isn't what I am talking about.

You are guarding a player dribbling down the court and you won't shut up?

What place does that have?

How is that considered to be fair competition and on the level competition?

Is that what we are to believe a modern debate is supposed to resemble?

And is the reason Donald Trump won't take questions from the educated that he doesn't want to have to respect that?  Doesn't want to have to recognize that education of a United States Citizen and respect it?

You think that our nation was meant to win by underhanded means?  You think that is what we are to be about?  I disagree with you.  And you can't comprehend my disagreement with you can you.

Gun Control Again 02 02 2024

Kind of interesting how at the same time they are drawing us closer to World War Three they are also lobbying for more gun control?

What lesser vision of life are they trying to bring about? 

What grey skinned cold heartless emotionless controlling world do they believe in?

What sick cotton mouth garbage are we going to be forced to be subjects of?

What delusional standards do they have for the human race with regard to love and children and family and learning?

I am for and against workers Unions at the exact same time. 02 02 2024

    1. My experience with blue collar work is that there is a lot of nepotism.  There is a lot of undue disparity in pay.  There is a lot of favoritism.  There is a lot of, this person is family and you are not.  There is a lot of let's injure a worker that we don't like.

They want a worker to cozy into a situation whereby that worker does all the work and stays with them because they have created great false insecurity in that worker.  Oh do I hate people like that!  I loathe people like that.  To try and tell you where your place is in this world, and it is doing their work for them.  I would dissolve the entire corporate legal framework just to root those individuals out of my democracy.

When you aren't really dealing with men but males who act like the belong in a knitting group or stich and bitch in some small town minded place.  This person seems more like they should be wearing a long dress than pants.  They have the odd voice of can I say "Maud?" Odd paranoic ideas that only one person owns a skill.  Creepy little pieces of cheese minds.

Do unions really make sure that safety is being met?  I don't believe so.  When a person is only supposed to be expose to a certain parts per million are Unions there to protect the worker?  Highly doubt it.

2.  But if there were no unions, they wouldn't pay the blue collar worker didly for his work.  And that is plain wrong.

So you have the greed element of the Corporate CEO that needs to be countered.  And Unions do their best to fulfill that role.  And when you pay your dues that is what it is for?

Would some Corporations that went bankrupt be in business today if workers had been hired full time rather than from a temporary work agency?  I think so.  So, I mean, the work unit?  Look at how the work unit is manipulated so that it means nothing and can be considered to be nothing.

But again, I don't like anything where some type of ill motivated officiate takes a big chunk of money off the top for nothing! Actually, I hate that.

And you, a Catholic, get out into the real world and you say to yourself, "The people at this job are not acting the way that people at this job should be acting and also the people at this job are not acting the way that people should be acting.  They are acting like they have been bitten when they needed a rabies shot and didn't get it?"

Random thoughts about Homosexuality 02 02 2024

So, this question would seem to be the most central to the issue.

Why can't a homosexual man love a woman?

And vice versa, why can't a Lesbian love a man?

So they would say that they are just the way that they are.

But often when a man marries a woman he is somehow looking for one like his mom?  It worked for his dad it would work for him?  He got along with his mom and hence he wants to marry a woman that has that type of personality or looks or whatever he see's as being the same and important?

And I am not meaning to be a basher.  But re-ask the first two questions in the terms of that last paragraph?

So our new age people want children to be able to decide their sexuality for themselves?  I find that to be a little disingenuous.

*****'

No lets bring the Roman Catholic Church into the issue.  Didn't that making the decision about what your sexuality should be come from the Roman Catholic Church?  You have to decide to be celibate in order to be a Catholic Priest?  I would just assert that is allowing a young person to make a decision with regard to their sexuality.  And I would also state that it seems to me to be an unnatural decision to ask them to make?  So in Rome they used to castrate boys because they wanted to make them higher pitched singers? In comparison to what?  A rough husky voice?

Or rather to make a rough husky voice transition into more of a normal sounding voice?  And where those singers primarily in Church, at the altar, altar boys?  Hence it is marketing?  If you have more normal or better voices singing up front you draw more patrons to your Church?

But in conjunction with that same church they were found guilty of sexually molesting a lot of children?

And perhaps here I divert to something I once heard on the Oprah show.  She interviewed a child molester and that child molester said that when he sexually molested children he saw their whole lives pass before his eyes.  Which means he saw their futures too?  And when you know the future you can indeed profit from it?  Did he see what their lives were meant to be?  Or did he see what he ruined those lives to be?

So perhaps this second part of the article deals with the question, why would you motivate someone to have a Non heterosexual life?  Do I dare say what would cause you to want them to make the choice about their sexuality?  Why do you want to influence it?  See what I am poking around at here?

******'

Okay back to the first section.  So about parents as role models of heterosexuality. So let's say that you like your parents.  Can't really find much flaw with them.  You might not be aware of this next part.  I met a person and she didn't really have anything good to say about her mother.  Said she just drank and smoked a lot.

But perhaps you can't apply science to something that is controlled by academia?  You ask yourself why isn't academia applying science and the scientific method of questioning something like this.  And you come to the conclusion that the first section is a highly emotional area and reactive emotional area?  Now perhaps that just sums it up good. But then think about that term that I just flushed out?  How many areas whereby science should be applied to them are not because they are highly reactive emotional areas?  Psychiatry would have you believe that the highly emotionally reactive insults that someone who is labeled schizophrenic are hearing are really somehow them insulting themselves in a highly emotionally reactive way?  It doesn't hold up to logic does it.  Doesn't hold a split candle to it, does it.

*****'

Full circle.

It doesn't seem like a mean question to ask does it?

"Why can't you love a woman?"

"Why can't you love a man?"

It is only because of the response that it seems something of bad motive is packed into the question?  When really, it is just an innocent question?  And do you know what?  Perhaps it is a question that is most from the heart?

Doesn't it bother any American or American Leadership 02 02 2024

 That England Great Britian took over Northern Ireland and calls it part of the United Kingdom now, when they had no right to do so AND when the United States was a colony of England/United Kingdom/Great Britain whatever you want to call it that fought hard to gain our Independence from them?

It is like someone out there wants to punish me for saying that?

If they took over Northern Ireland have they not demonstrated that they want to take over the United States to, a former colony of theirs and they thought they owned us?

Why are we allied with them at all?

What commonality am I of Irish, German and Bohemian descent and raised of the Catholic Faith to believe that I have with the United Kingdom?  You would propagandize that American Presidents should bow before the King of England?  If I were President I would cut that transatlantic cable to England or at least breaker switch it off.  We don't owe you anything!  And you owe us absolutely everything!  Absolutely everything!

Why should I believe that me, my kin, any protentional children I could have had, or young adults that are like that, should be drafted, conscripted and die for any economic based War that country who is stated to be our ally gets us into?

Does our Government have the right to ally us?  Should it even be considered a matter to be put on the ballot as who we are to be considered allies with? 

A lot of money gets funneled away.  The problem being, that means the books are not going to balance.  When the books are not balancing who can be considered to earn their money and who not?

Again, I don't even believe a fair outcome would be made if it were put on the ballot.  Because it should have more to do with what our Constitution states that we are and not some gd popularity contest!

And what are we experiencing today? That our Government should really be run by popularity contest, the winner being who is the biggest a hole?  What good does that do for the longevity of our nation that is based on freedom?  What standards of sickness does it set?

It should be more along these lines.  You look down at a checklist created by a rational mind and say, "You can't be our foreign ally because...."

Nuclear War Drills 02 02 2024

 If we are going to start messing around in the Middle East and saber rattling with China and Russia then we have to prepare our nation for a nuclear attack and nuclear fallout.

Where are the fallout shelters?

Etc.

A list of procedures in case of a nuclear attack should be posted.

People should be put on notice.

How should we react in case our major population centers and government buildings are attacked and destroyed by "nuclear."

What should the hierarchy be of government in terms of who is left and who was killed in a nuclear attack?

It shouldn't be Republican based martial law where all women that had an abortion are considered criminal.

If a pregnant woman has been exposed to nuclear radiation are Republicans going to make her keep that baby?

Are we to all turn in our guns and some how red headed prince harry is now in charge of us as part of a commonwealth of England?

We can't be talking the talk and fighting the war over there without expecting that somehow we are going to end up getting knee deep in it in our homeland?

And in retrospect it might have been a mistake to make all of these foreign alliances and have their currency converted into one based on freedom when in reality they were not free and didn't believe in the freedom of men.  They believed in something very horrific.

If a Stuttering Fool no longer Stutters 02 02 2024

 If a stuttering fool no longer stutters is it really fair to say that they are smarter than when they stuttered? 

Aren't they just the same as when the stuttered only they no longer stutter?

So lets say that someone who stutters brain process was interrupted and that is why they stuttered.

Now lets say that the reason they no longer stutter is because that which was interrupted their brain process has conditioned them to say things that they don't have a satanic motive to interrupt?

When Jesus drove the demons out of someone did they not "yelp" on their way out of that person?  Yes they did.  As if that person had caught their good tongue back!

But again, back to the mainline argument of this post.

Can a person who no longer stutters prove that they are inherently smarter than when they stuttered?  And perhaps we can add a little element of 'unfairity' to the one side.  I mean perhaps it isn't fair to say that someone who stutters is naturally less intelligent?

But there still seems to me to be that interjection to the thought process?  And that amounts to indecision?

And okay, now I will let the sunshine on this idea.

So Jesus drove the demons out of people and made them well again.  Why did the demons chose the person they did in the first place?  Perhaps they recognized something greater in that individual?  Something noteworthy, with high merit, that they wanted to suppress.  Perhaps that is an individual they knew that they had to work very hard at discrediting.  What evidence do I have for making what you would say is a wild statement or assertion like that?  Was not Jesus Christ himself tempted by such demons before he started his official preaching?  And what he said resonates to today.  As something bad people might want the good to knot know, believe, or have knowledge of.

And if you can't connect the dots and thought processes of a writing like this it would really be a waste of my time and a cause frustration for someone like me to talk to someone like you.

© 2024 Thomas Paul Murphy

Ps.  What God or demon does the person who no longer stutters owe a debt to?

Did the emergence of the Kings Religion really cause WW1 and WW2?

 A key tenet of that religion being a pagan idealism, "It doesn't matter what you do in life as long as at the hour of your death you ask to be saved."  That isn't any different than saying, "It doesn't matter what you do in life."

Yeah, we can thank Martin Luther for that.

So you had people of that false idealism, and they are naturally going to cause conflict.

Do you know what Jesus would say about it?  He would say, "I didn't say that! You did!"  ..."I never said it doesn't matter how you live your life.  How in Fathers name could you misquote me like that?"  "Have you know idea what I meant when I talked about eternal punishment?"  "What you said has no motivation in it for people to be good."

******'

On the flip-side of that you had capitalism coming into conflict with mental retardation caused by alcohol.  Alcohol won that.  But not before it caused WW2 in the point and fact that Germany opted for it.

But look at that statement?  It almost implies that doing a great human thing like the 18th Amendment caused WW2.  And that is just plain wrong.  You can't get into that mismatch logic and come to false conclusions that because you attempted a good thing you caused bad things.  You have to summarily dismiss that phrase, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions."  Why?  Because it is always just misapplied by the malcontents, uneducated, Luddites, naysayers, jeerers of Christ carrying his cross...etc.

Fairly good diatribe.

Gun Control 02 02 2024

 The bad prosper in gun control.

And the good become less confident in themselves and their position in society with gun control.

In effect gun control puts the "passive" label on the good.  It paints the good as being weak, and it is a wrong false idealism to put over them and have them fulfill.

I mean really it considers them to be subjects of government rather than active participants in it.  Completely wrong!  Subjects of government is no different than that awful English monarchy or communism or defaced forms of communism.

The Working From Home Issue 02 01 2024

 So what is the real reason people should work in the office if they are hired to work in the office and not from home?

Because most accidents happen in the home.  It means that ham bone head is going to be a lot safer in the office.  And because that ham bone head is such an asset to the company that is where they should be.

How can you insure someone who is working from home when most accidents happen in the home?

Best to have all the ham bone heads in the same place rather than out about in communities popping their ugliness up here and there.  

If a corporation goes bankrupt the employees offices were their homes are not those offices forfeited?
