During the two decades I debated “sexual orientation” on the Maine political stage the Roman Catholic Chancery was religious about staying neutral.  Remaining technically accurate they constantly reminded the people of Maine that banishment from housing, banking and eating (in a restaurant or public accommodation) shouldn’t be legal.  These human needs shouldn’t be provided, or denied, based on minority characteristics.

The Protestant non-profit I led allowed that this point needed to be proven before the term “sexual orientation” could justifiably be added to Maine law.   While it was never proven it was effectively asserted and eventually added to the law as a designation of moral, or legally approved, conduct.

What followed in quick succession were more changes to the law that further embedded the practice of sodomy in law, religion and culture.  Same sex marriage quickly transitioned to confusing the man with woman and vice versa.  I was vilified for predicting that our impressionable children would be the ones most damaged by this evil.

While the Church is holding to dogma on sodomy, it continues to strike a relaxed pose toward all things fake and gay.

I’ll never visit the Bible Museum in Washington, D.C. — especially after learning what this video reveals.

Chick-Fil-A is the business behind the Museum.  I lost a lot of respect for that business years ago.  They, like all Western Institutions at the time, decided to play footsie with all things fake and gay.

Christianity, because of the teachings of her founder Jesus Christ, developed a refined and efficient culture for marriage and family during the thousand years it ruled in Europe following the collapse of Rome’s empire.  The final nails are being driven into the coffin for this body politic by jews, banksters, politicians, zionists and war mongers as I write this post.

I don’t think the fake and gay ethos will succeed in the long term.  But they sure own most of the global high ground at the moment.

Academic left wing cultist Chris Hedges calls out his right wing counterpart in a short essay published today on his YouTube channel.

Hedges always leans hard into all the cliches of the left wing of the jewish bird of prey.  Reducing the world — and especially America’s — current crisis to politics as existential he ominously concludes suggesting Trump may cancel the midterms to fend off the obliteration of his movement by Hedge’s own political cult, the demonrats.  Trump may do that.  And what used to be (until the last few years) the biggest part of me, hopes he does.

The smaller part of me, however, now matches the size of the bigger part, having delivered me to a 50/50 split in my political personality.  The neurotic flapping of the bird of prey’s right wing contributed the most to creating my schizophrenia.  In recent years these flight-destroying spasms led me to listen more deeply to creators like Hedges.

A much different academician, however, ended up consuming more of my time than any other online creator in the last decade.  His name is Dr. E. Michael Jones.  His theological work led me to abandon Protestantism and enter the Roman Catholic Church during Easter of 2020.  Years ago I went beyond listening to the countless online podcasts that feature one hour conversations with Dr. Jones.  I added the delight of reading to my listening and scrolling.  He’s easy to find in the written word.  He’s authored dozens of books and hundreds of magazines in his 78 years among us.

This work equipped me to read between the lines of the doomer boomer Hedges essay.  Hedges describes a world that exists in his head alone.  Trump and his cult followers are really … REALLY … bad.  Obama and his cult followers … not so much.

Political leaders and influencers on both sides of this socially engineered American nominalist ideological superstructure are emerging from the World War II induced coma.  We are taking an excruciatingly painful look at the part we played in creating this absurd world that divides absolutely everything … especially our souls and spirits … into two absolutely equal parts.  We are walking away from this pornified perversion of Hegel’s dialectic.   We are moving into a future infused by the light of Hegel’s cunning of reason.

I’m thinking specifically of Tucker Carlson and his brother’s recent sit down in front of the cameras here in Maine at the immensely popular podcaster’s studio in Bethel.  They speak candidly of their responsibility for helping build the American political world that unleashed Trump’s genocidal religious cult on the planet.  This is the one job left to us American boomers before we die — the examination of conscience.

The movement that militantly removed repentance (along with all the other sacraments) from their religious lexicon is being forced by the world to examine it’s institutional conscience.  If Protestantism continues to descend into a hell of it’s own making I can now reliably predict that it will only destroy itself.  It’s not going to destroy either America or Christianity.  While pollsters tell us that America remains majority Protestant we all know the truth.  America has emerged as the most religion hating, porn and violence addicted, empire the world has ever seen.

And, unsurprisingly, the world has moved on.  Russia and China have been leading the way.  They are now joined, most dramatically, by Iran.  Embodying Persia, one of the most ancient and successful civilizations on earth, Iran has defeated the empire’s military.  The only path remaining for America on the world stage is political.  The end to both of the world’s most famous military operations (they aren’t wars laughingly) will be negotiated political compromises, thank God.  Nobody’s going to surrender.  Both sides will negotiate to a pivot and move on.

In a sense, the English Empire has indeed conquered the world.  The English language is being used more than any other in trade and diplomacy to avoid the obliteration of humanity by way of a nuclear exchange.  The use of precision guided munitions dependent on technological innovations largely discovered by the English dominated Europe of the past five centuries has diminished the slaughter of the armed conflicts of that period … especially in the past hundred years.

Dr. Jones authored a book entitled “Logos Rising” a few years ago.  Logos is the Greek word for reason.  The English Bible translates Logos into “word” and features it many times in the opening sentences of John’s gospel.  Words are indeed rising.  Weapons are being returned to their sheaths and holsters.

The people of the world are demanding a return to reason, goodness, truth, beauty and the moral law.

And no amount of online dooming by either wing of the jewish bird of prey is going to stop it from soaring.

I concluded a few weeks ago that Trump must be impeached immediately, if not sooner. Almost nothing he’s done since his Inauguration has really impressed me.  Watch the video below to hear a fact I didn’t know about Trump’s wilderness experience between Presidential terms.  He did nothing for the January 6th prisoners. 

I didn’t know that.

There is literally nothing about this term that is America First.  Everything about his actions  … and most of his narrative … puts Israel and his brand first.  I didn’t realize until this term that he is very much a jewish revolutionary.  The one group proving most loyal to him as he demonstrates this foreign loyalty are the Israel First Catholics and Protestants.  That is all that’s left of his MAGA coalition.

The divide he opened with Christianity over Easter will never be healed.  Easter 2026 will be remembered as the day Trump replaced Hitler as the most evil man in human history.  Mark my words.

God is always going someplace good in human history.  As Dr. E Michael Jones points out, Persia is delivering His people out of the hands of their oppressors once again.  He did so under Cyrus, the Roman Emperor Julius the Apostate and now under Trump.  What the devil intends for the destruction of goodness, truth and beauty God is turning to the deliverance of humanity from the jewish supremacists.  Paul the Apostle observed that jews are the enemies of the entire human race in his letter to the Thessalonians.

Since becoming Catholic six years ago I’ve learned much from listening to this creator.

In this episode he observes that  Pope Leo ignored the baby murder issue in an observance where it obviously should have been included.

Father Ripperger’s analysis is accurate based on my own personal experience in politics.

For what reads like a pretty fair summary of the broader issue of sola scriptura click on this AI link.

This post is about my personal experience with the doctrine.

I was baptized at the behest of my parents when I was a young teen in a United Methodist Church in Maryland.  I did it mostly for my parents, which is probably typical for all Christians who are baptized while a child of any age.  That is to say that baptism at that age is more about the adults who surround the child than the child.  They are too young to have any rigorous theological or philosophical understanding of the liturgy.  The Church community contextualizes the event in the months that follow.  As months turn into years the child becomes a man and grows in his responsibility to fully understand the indelible spiritual quality of what happened when the Church baptized him.

I was presented with an inscribed Bible by the Church at the baptismal liturgy.  I have it today, some fifty-five or so years later.  I think the sola scriptura idea/doctrine was probably mentioned to me as part of the preparation for the baptismal liturgy, but I’m not certain.  I remember having a special feeling about the inscribed Bible.  I read from it periodically as a child.  I never developed a habit of daily Bible reading.

I found written and visual material of an erotic nature to be much more meaningful than Bible verses as a teenager.  While I wanted to act out what I read, and viewed, in the “literature” I never developed the habit of fornication beyond self-stimulation inspired by the jewish-promoted “literature” known as porn.  I always knew that the Bible I owned was critical of the habit, and of all forms of lust.  Talmudically, I chose to rationalize the dichotomy.

I fell in love at eighteen years old with the woman I would marry.  Raised in the Pentecostal Church she had a deeper, more emotional, connection to sola scriptura than did I.  We both attended Protestant Bible College where she studied music, and I obtained a degree in Religion & Philosophy.  I accepted the doctrine uncritically all through this process until 2020 when I entered the Roman Catholic Church. That’s when I started to think deeply about it.

As I write this blog post I’m celebrating the end of my sixth year as a Catholic.  I find deep peace in having a Priest, and the Bible, in my life.  My Priest spent years sorting through the theological and philosophical issues/controversies that followed Luther’s articulation of sola scriptura’s modern form in the 1500s.  I trust my Priest on this point mostly because the alternative in America is Protestantism, which has disintegrated into tens of thousands of small groupings that each rally around some novel interpretation and/or charismatic personality.

The oldest of the Protestant groupings are all woke now.  Their biggest concern is transgendering. They’ve developed all sorts of theological and philosophical “reasoning” to support the insanity.  They get away with it because almost nobody attends their “worship” services anymore.  They are all closing, along with the Catholic Churches that maintain a relaxed attitude toward jews and their Talmudic ideas.

During my lifetime the only christian churches that enjoyed growth were evangelical zionist enterprises.  They were captured politically by the Republican Party at the time of Ronald Reagan.  The zionism was buried in eschatology that probed from the margins of daily and weekly worship until Trump was elected for a second time.  It appears that zionism is now a major dogma of the evangelicalism that I defended for twenty years as leader of the Christian Civic League.

I never defended zionism.  I stayed away from eschatology.  I’ve always reasoned that the future belongs to God and I was never comfortable with current event, headline driven “prophets”, teachers and preachers.

I’m not surprised to see what is happening right now in Washington D.C.  After spending four years leading a Christian community that ministered to troubled souls I entered Maine’s political world at the highest layer of engagement.  I spent twenty years as the spokesman for the century old Protestant institution who’s job it was (and is) to influence public policy, The Christian Civic League of Maine.

What Trump is doing makes perfect sense to me.  He has surrounded himself with evangelical “judeo-christian” Americans who sincerely believe that Old Testament verses are as timely, relevant and authoritative today as they were when they were written.  Sola Scriptura requires that the social order honor the absolute right of every individual Christian to interpret and apply the Bible for themselves alone. Protestant pastors teach this duty, and each denomination develops unique and independent rules to tamp down the inevitable chaos.

Most teach that the Old Testament must be interpreted through the lens of the New Testament, which introduces Jesus into the interpretation and application of Old Testament ideas.  But … never forget … that the doctrine empowers every individual to interpret and apply any, and all, Bible verses themselves.

This highly individualized and sovereign characteristic, encouraged by the doctrine, creates men like current Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.  The Pope recently reminded the world that the gospel cannot be used to justify war, “Brothers and sisters, this is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them.”

The American Evangelical Christians who are the most enthusiastic supporters of Trump’s war of choice against Iran are quoting the Old Testament out of context.  Hegseth quotes from it regularly.

I’m not a theologian.  Never have been.  I’m barely a philosopher having merely earned a Bachelor of Arts degree.  I do, however, have practical experience at 65 years of age.  And it is from those decades of experience that I respectfully offer my perspective.

Christians in the West desperately need the help of educated Priests with their spiritual lives as they work to sort out the world that is emerging from the ashes of the American empire.

Protestantism isn’t helping.  It will end up in the dust bin of history because it has always been nothing more than a heresy.

I spent considerable time on X last year.  Way too much.  I’m not going to do that this year.  All Big Tech social media is evil.  Every single platform is a psychological operation now.  It is all designed to bake your soul into their centralized and controlled cake.

I’m also done with Trump.  No more time on Republican anything.  I left legacy media behind forever ago.  Democrats will impeach Trump after crushing MAGA in the midterms.

But Demonrats are worse.  They’re all in with woke satanism.

Fortunately politics is a limited and defined category in the universe.  It isn’t the category that controls nature, or what is real.  It is just … politics.  Government is …. nothing more … or less … than … government.  And religion is as real a category in the universe and HUMAN nature as government and politics.

The powers that ought not be in the West obviously don’t appreciate this reality.  That’s why they made the unGodly strategic mistake of martyring Iran’s second most powerful religious leader last week.  In doing so they energized the Shia wing of Islam against America and the jews.  Iran’s missile attacks on all their Sunni neighbors further hints at the imprudence of this military calculation.

Many analysts I trust are predicting that this will result in the shuttering of all our military bases in the Middle East and may include the obliteration of Israel.  They also believe the United States will be ejected forever from the Middle East.

It’s way past time for that to happen.

Trump has really lost me on three major issues.  ICE, war and surveillance.  He is worse than the Demonrats on all three.  I wouldn’t lift a finger to resist his immediate impeachment.  And I voted for him in all three fake elections.

I did so because my political career made me over-sensitive to all things woke.  All those issues remain important.  They, however, pale in comparison to what the Israel First cabal has initiated in the past week.

This war MUST be brought to a close immediately.  Failure to do so risks the unacceptable risk of tactical nukes entering the equation.

Trump promised peace.

It’s his time to deliver on that promise.

He must throw the jews under the bus.  Call me anti-semitic like it’ll make a difference.

Back when I was doing my deep dive on Nick Fuentes I came across this once young (now forty year old) Livestreamer.  He’s interviewed Dr. Jones a few times.  We need a lot more conversations that jump the artificial generational divides fueled by psychological warfare.  Great work gentlemen!
