How Britain's Digital ID Scheme Aligns With Scriptural End Times Warnings

Image
   Recently, Keir Starmer, the Prime Minister of Britain, has announced that his government plans to introduce a digital identification system across it's territory. The impetus for this system is stated to be to ensure that only British citizens are able to secure employment in Britain, and this is the result of uncontrolled illegal immigration into the country for the last several years.  Illegal immigrants have been an issue for quite a number of years, but the numbers have really spiked over the last four years or so. The vast majority of the immigrants are young men of middle eastern descent and they arrive without families. There are very few women who make the trek, so the result is that Britain is enduring a slow invasion of military aged men with no relational attachments and who hold cultural views that are starkly contrary to those of the native population. Consecutive governments, lead by the Conservative and Labour parties, have claimed that they have no abil...

The Tragic Epic of Charlie Kirk #IAMCHARLIE

Image
   I write the following with reservation. It isn't that I don't think that the assassination of Charlie Kirk is not worth talking about, because it most definitely is. The reason that I am reticent about writing about the murder of Charlie Kirk is that I do not want to seem to be benefiting from the tragedy that is Charlie's murder. I have a pretty decent idea about how algorithms work, so I know that when people search Charlie's name, myriad articles will come up in the results, and some of those results will include this article. I have waited a full week before I even contemplated writing anything on this topic in hopes that I will have missed the mad rush for everybody to dig into this tragedy for moral or immoral reasons. I have watched with a significant amount of disgust as people have celebrated Charlie Kirk's death. The absolute glee that has been displayed at the termination of a human life in such a macabre fashion should cause all of us to hang our head...

The Canadian Persecution of Sean Feucht

Image
  I had no intention of delving into the Sean Feucht controversy, but it occurred to me that this is more than just a Christian controversy; this is, in fact a political controversy. For those of you who, like me, have been hearing about but otherwise largely ignoring the uproar that Sean Feucht has had swirling around him recently, here is a cole's notes version of what I have been able to gather.   Sean Feucht has been involved in the Christian music industry in some form or another for around 20 years. He is connected to Bethel Church, which has had it's own controversies over the years. Bethel Church is another one of those issues which I have not cared to dive into too deeply, so I will not be expounding on that here. I will say that, regardless of the controversies around Bethel Church, they have produced some very good worship music over the years, and we have to make a decision about whether we can use and appreciate that music apart from the controversies of the ...

AI and the Nether Realm

Image
  I have developed a very strong aversion to new technologies. Keep in mind that I have lived my life in the age wherein computers have gone from a novelty item that people didn't understand or see the value in having, to a time when most people carry more computing power in their pocket or purse than what was used to initially launch the entire NASA space program. And I have used a lot of this technology over the years for personal and business purposes as well as for entertainment purposes. But things have taken a turn as of late. My whole life, the notion of a sentient artificial intelligence (AI) has been the holy grail of technological advancement. And while we are not there yet, the strides that artificial intelligence has taken in just the last two or three years is staggering, and I think that it is also terrifying. This is partly due to the fact that the engineers are using AI to design the next level of AI. Talk about letting a monster design itself. In my article entitle...

GCD Short - The Plight of Syria Revisited

Image
                                               In early December of 2024 I wrote an article about the fall of Bashar al-Assad, the President of Syria. He had been fighting a civil uprising ever since the "Arab Spring" in which outside forces intervened in several middle east countries and caused the overthrow of several of the leaders of those countries. If you would like to read what I wrote at that time, you can find that article here . This will not be much of an article written by me. I simply want to provide you with an update on what has been happening in Syria since we last looked at it. I want to direct your attention to an article that was published by the Gateway Pundit on July 20th. I have read several of their articles over the years and I have found their reporting of issues to be pretty balanced. I share this article because one of the few forme...

What Does it Mean to Be A Shepherd?

Image
  Have you ever heard about the things that a shepherd has to do in order to keep his sheep safe and healthy? Over the years, I have heard different things about the amount of work that it is to have sheep. Sheep are very foolish animals and are prone to causing their own death if it weren't for the intervention of the shepherds. Nowadays, sheep are often kept in fenced in areas that have had the dangers removed or otherwise alleviated, so someone who is raising sheep can let them out into the pasture and almost leave them alone. This was not the case in Bible times. Sheep were let out onto open fields to graze, so whatever dangers the sheep may face as they were moved from one area to another in order to find suitable pasture were left as danger spots. This is where the shepherd came into play. We know that King David started out as a shepherd boy. I presume that each of David's brothers had to spend some time as the shepherd as they were growing up. I imagine that as each boy...

Tolerance is Not a Christian Virtue

Image
  Tolerance is a buzz word in modern western society. On the surface, the use of the word 'tolerance' is intended to expand and maintain peace among people of varying religions, beliefs and practices who live in the same communities. The idea of tolerance is rooted in the ideology of love for everyone, which is, in turn, rooted in the non-christian belief that because God is the God of love, then He cannot also be the God of judgment and wrath that the Christians are warning people about. After all, how can a God of love destroy people whom He supposedly made to be gay or lesbian or trans, etcetera? It is this misunderstanding of God's love that has opened society up to it's own usurpation by those of compassionate hearts. I stated that the surface purpose of the use of the word 'tolerance' is to maintain peace, but I believe that the deeper purpose is to undermine the deep, fundamentally Christian roots of western society. Merriam Webster defines 'tolerance...
