Rudakubana is a Riot

The British people are rioting in the streets against their country’s immigration policies—like everywhere else in the civilized Western world. X and Elon Musk being blamed for inciting and supporting the anger and violence. You have to blame someone, right? The politicians in power can’t blame themselves and their policies. They can’t blame the shameful way they exploit and marginalize their own blood, their own native-born constituents.

Liberal think decrees that only “right-thinking” persons should be allowed to express themselves freely in society. If you are a dissident or you disagree with the powers that be, you should be silenced, isolated, excluded, and penalized. Marxists stigmatize their opponents. They create straw men, the better to demolish them in the popular imagination. They cannot even wait to turn public opinion against them, based on what they are in reality. That is how much power obsesses liberals. There is no honor or respect among liberals for anything.

Liberals don’t want to live in the world with people whose thinking and speech they cannot control. The way liberals think, in a world with diverse ways of thinking, conversing, and living, someone has to go and it’s not going to be them. That’s why they’re obsessed with political power and forcing others into submission. They are determined to rout their opponents out and eliminate them. Freedom of expression is an evil not tolerated by liberal, Marxist ideology and its power structures. It’s all about power, not political thinking and ideology. It’s all about who shall rule! And in the Marxist world it’s not going to be you. The Marxists will not even allow you to speak your mind, and when they learn how to do it, they will not let you think your own thoughts.

Axel Rudakubana a seventeen year old, black child of immigrant parents from Rwanda. He murdered three white girls on July 29, 2024, at a Taylor Swift party in Southport near Liverpool. Native Britains are rioting all over the country in response to the murders and their perceived connection to immigration policy.

Journal Entry

I don’t think sex is a gift from God. I think it’s just part of the human condition. A man can enjoy sex and pursue it without idolizing it and exalting it beyond reason. It would be more honest to admit that sex demeans man than to go on about what a wonderful gift it is from the Master of the Universe. I’m not saying that I’m asexual. I like sex, especially homosexual sex. I enjoy intimacy with another person. I like men. I’m sexually and emotionally drawn to men. Is that a bad thing? I don’t see how it possibly can be. How can human affection ever be bad? That’s something I’ve never understood. A lot of my interest in men is social and emotional. I don’t have to be sexual with a man to be interested in him, and to want to know him. But, there are a lot of men with whom I’d like to be sexual. All my life, I’ve been socially and sexually attracted to men, and a lot of them have been attracted to me too. This feeling of social and sexual interest is not a one-way street.

 Moses—Hear O Israel:  the LORD our God is one LORD (Deuteronomy 6:  4):  Thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might (Deuteronomy 6:  5).  Jesus—Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind (Matthew 22:  37).  See Mark 12:  30; and Luke 10:  27.

Prayer is refraining from error and evil, doing good, and loving God.  That’s what prayer means.  That’s what I should do when I pray.  That’s what I try to do.  I’m better at it sometimes than others.  Sometimes I don’t do a good job of it at all.  But, I keep going back to do it again and do it some more.  Hopefully, I’ll get better at it with practice.  Writing can be a species of doing good.  Writing is a kind of doing good, a way of doing good.  One knows nothing about writing without doing it regularly.  One knows nothing about writing without making a commitment to it.  If I commit to writing and do it regularly, I will learn something about it and myself as a writer.  A man can’t learn how to write without doing it.  Commitment.  Practice.  Self-awareness.  Self-knowledge.  Sharing.  Unselfishness.  Love.  Affection.  Enjoyment.  Joy. Learning how to live and living righteously unto the end.  One should not stop living righteously until the end.  Don’t anticipate or surrender to death until the end.  Don’t make the forever sense of mortality a condition for righteous living.  Live righteously because righteous living is eternal.  Eternity is the essence of righteous living.  Cultivate and express righteousness and holiness in yourself.  Live holy and righteously.  Do good.  Refrain from evil and error.

Elisha and The Prophet's Wife

And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? Who am I, or what am I that you should look to me for relief? I have no worldly goods to give you. I have not saved up worldly riches to help the poor. It would behoove you to look to God, the source of all substance and being, in your time of need. But, I will help you. I will do what I can for you, to bless you, because I feel compassion for you and your sons. I will share my understanding of God with you by arousing your faith in Him. We will enlighten your understanding of substance and supply by demonstrating it with a pot of oil and some empty vessels. We will keep you and your sons busy exercising faith in the Provider of all good, and you will have what you need. And it was so (II Kings 4).

Celebrate God in Christ

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped (Psalms 28). Spirit is the only substance and consciousness recognized by divine Science (S & H: p. 278). The objects cognized by the physical senses have not the reality of substance. They are only what mortal belief calls them (S & H: p. 311). This is a specimen of the ambiguous nature of all material health-theories (S & H: p. 388).

The prodigal son shows us that it is good and natural to celebrate right thinking and spiritual consciousness. Whether we are steadfast in Spirit or returning to the right standard, it always helps to celebrate spiritual being. Do you feel lost and disappointed by the world's prospects? Don't despair! Celebrate God in Christ, and you will be inspired and energized. You will find ways to make life better. You too can return to your Father and claim your place in His family. The Samaritan leper was healed by his own gratitude. It was a spiritual yearning which he must have felt even before Jesus helped him to bring it to the point of healing. And Jesus said to him, "Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole" (Luke 17). Jesus had the power to heal those whose faith was not sufficient to make them whole. Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? Only the Samaritan knew that he had bonded spiritually with Jesus and returned to thank him.

Family Name

God is the Father and we are his family, named after Christ. Christians. It is good to have a name, to be named. Ephesians 3: 15. It is good to look to the Father for sustenance and support. Mankind will not endorse, promote, and provide for you. Mortals thrive on a selfish instinct. It is human nature to advance oneself to the exclusion and diminishment of others. We do it all the time. All the more reason to find substance in Spirit, God. Manna from heaven and water from the rock. Exodus 17: 6.

Substance

Glory.  Majesty.  Might.  Length.  Breadth.  Height.  Depth.  Ephesians 3; Science and Health, p. 520.  Manna.  Pulse.  Beans.  Water.  Daniel’s beans and water stave off hunger and preserve health better than the king’s meat and wine.  God.  Sustainer.  Protector.  Father.  Friend.  Manna in the desert.  Manna from heaven.  Beans and water in the king’s palace.  Celebration of the prodigal son.  The Samaritan leper’s gratitude and healing.  The glory, majesty, and might of God.
