Tolerance

Posted by: wadeedward
Dear Lord, I come to you a simple man alone, without wise consultation, I know that in your teachings tolerance is a valid thought. Please allow me to know how to grant insight to those in in need of it; let me be your instrament of spiritual growth. This country and this world need wiser and more self determined men who do not follow tales of debauchery and such so intently as to further the industry of creating the like. I know that our children are at risk. My own have been taken already, by that same engine of deceit. Put aside the blinders on the eyes of these self made horses, that they can see the chariot they pull so furiously on is championed by the very darkness they so ardently believe themselves to pursue. We live in a world with date rape and other drugs. We live in a world where one photo, falsely obtained DNA sample, or even an accusation can ruin a man, without him even being aware he was ever drugged and/or raped. How can this constitute justice in a country so kind and good? I have rung the bell for so many years and I know that is is a good and generous country. How can we teach our children not to use foul language and yet let the horrors of pornographic slavery be an instrament of governance? How can we elect to make money from the sale of flesh, other peoples flesh, the flesh of innocent creatures young and old, be the instrament of dominion over those inwardly true to you?

Father, in Jesus' Name I ask You to help me understand this man's words more easily. Thank You for answering my prayer.....Amen.
I don't believe God is tolerant. God is patient, though.
If you are disobedient to His Word, you have doorways which are opened for evil to come into your life and mess things up.
God created both evil and good. All you have to do is choose which one you desire more and you will overcome one or the other.
It is an eternal decision, really. Once you've drawn your last breath it is over.
Who, or what, is your God right now? What do you spend most of your time on? (This is for example only.) He is jealous, you know. If you are busy with something other than Him, it is probably not going well for you. (This is just for "eye opening," in case you weren't aware). By his stripes I am healed.
Take my own experience, for another example. I spent more time wondering when I was going to find time to smoke another cigarette than I did any other thing. So, in a way, I put cigarettes on a higher level than I did God in my life for about 30 years.
Even though I knew the Word of God, I had never met Him, personally. I didn't really think (not really) that I could ask Him questions and He would answer them directly in my own heart. I never knew (truly knew) that He was the One who spoke in my ear that time when I was the only person in the room. I never even imagined that He would show me what He looks like, or that He would think I was special enough to trust me to pray for His most precious treasures, to show me what they look like sometimes, or let me feel what they feel like on the inside.
God will have mercy on whom He will have mercy - that is His Word - but a disobedient child will receive correction until he gets understanding. That is what a "good" Dad does. An obedient child will fail once in awhile (because he is not perfect), and a Dad who loves His son will notice and let his son know He noticed. Not because He's mean, but because He loves you.

Why do you believe the Lord lacks tolerance? The lord broke (breaks) bread with all manner of folk surely.
The Lord was a friend of Samaritans, and some of "his faith"
were all for "ethnic cleansing" of all of that "tribe".
The Lord was kind to Mary, when others wanted to Stone her to death.
The Lord was kind to beggars, and madmen; he cured them of their ills, rather than blaming them for those ills, as some did and continue to do. (Read 34b of the Maine Statutes if you want to know what "real men" think of the mentally ill, and "due Christian tolerance". I quote from the latest word on patients rights: "because of protected property rights...the institutionalized mentally ill have no right to adequate medical health care" (the only other group I know of so denyed basic civil rights are those deamed brain dead). Please take pains not to be seen as supporting passive euthanasia etc. by people yet learning what it is to be a Christian, else those men of good will may never cleave to Christ.
This is tolerance: to act as Christ acted as best we can.
This is false witness: to state that you believe, but to ignore the teachings of Our Lord and master.
I pray we always know the difference.
Perhaps experience is the best teacher, I used to think as you. But time has proven to me that drugs and treachery can "prove" even the most prudish to be of a lecherous bent, in our courts and in the living rooms of our most gossiping "moralists". Anesthesia can these days selectively remove parts of the brain from the whole, instantly, and few of the gossiping moralists will admit that such a thing can be done, even if our government publishes it can and does happen. As morality is a higher brain function than sin, we are all one pill or injection away from behaving in a way you would seem to be saying "God will not permit". I know God would not damn a man because he has a co-worker that wants to secure a promotion by making it appear that all the other workers are letches, for instance. Date rape drugs have done this to our society, we cannot as good men ignore this fact and instead rely on the wisdom of gossips who "just know" a character flaw from a "date rape drug".
Date rape drugs are not always used to get sex. Drugs in general are not always used to get the party of the first part high.
Go with God,

I believe that when God said, - "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." 
That it has happened over and over.
I was so wise at one time. I knew it all. Even when I was a teenager, I was full of more knowledge and had more wisdom than my parents. 
At first, when I found out that there might be a possibility that I was wrong, it made me angry 
and I wanted to lash out and hurt other people 
!
But that didn't make me have righteousness. It just kept me awake at night and caused me much grief. 
I also thought I was very mistreated and this was a sign I was walking with God....persecution. God gave me the power to CONTROL things.......not. 
But, because of God's patience and mercy.....He sent a Sword. It cut my heart open. He sent angels and they pushed back the darkness by His direction. 
Then He let me "hear" Him for the second time. 
I learned about sanctification. I learned that it wasn't by my own power that I could come into His Presence. I was always subject to His judgment and mercy and favor. 
This was hard at first. I had to learn a truth that wasn't taught to me in a way that I could understand in the past, or rather, I was blinded and made deaf, so that I couldn't hear or see (this is the darkness) the teachers, or pastors, who tried to teach me God's way. 
I thought that once I was saved, I would always be saved, but I didn't know it was only from that point backward. God taught me that every sin I committed since that time was soiling my spiritual garments and I needed to ask for forgivness for each thing and repent of them (WHAT?) to be totally cleansed. (Phlp. 2:12 "work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.")
I can't remember everything, so I have to rely on His grace - favor - to help me become clean enough to hold His Presence inside of me while I learn from the Spirit what has to change. 
This is an ongoing process for me.....my husband keeps getting smarter and smarter....Know what I mean? Just like my parents did after I had children!
Anyway, knowledge of good and evil can bite you if you don't see it coming 
and you are me. 
I can give you more specific examples of why God isn't tolerant as is recorded in the Word of God, if you like. Just let me know.
I love learning.

Well yes, there is such a thing as good and evil.
Few people would argue that. I shall certainly not tell you such that it is right or just to kill a child. (I speak of abortion)
What I must argue though is that a gossiping woman can inadvertently cause many deaths, by rewarding murder if done with theater. What I must also state plainly is that I am not explaining a plot delivered to me as an apple by Satan. People have killed, people will kill if God does not prevent it. (We collectively are as the body of God) What I warn then of is a kind of suicide, by gossip. Please allow me to explain as I know this topic is nigh onto a knot in and of itself.
We live on it is true by children, and not all of these children are our progeny. Therefore it is our duty to the God that made us not to be too prideful even of our own family. We cannot know our families will be those that carry the flame in all necessary things. If we are duped forever into hating the children of our neighbors because of an evident wrong that is not an actual wrong then we are ourselves wrongheaded.
But those who learn that they have been duped into false pride and gossip in the past have been taught a lesson as much by their creator as by Satan; God instilled in us the ability to learn not only so that we might know how we came to be damned, but also how we have come to be SAVED BY HIS SON’S FORGIVING NATURE.
Nations are a fact of life. So to are then emerging nations and declining nations, as a nation is not of God as much as the falsely prideful may believe, and just as men do sin and fall away, so may our nations. Just as well we may so alter our nations as create a new nation of the old as we are doing now in this country. But I would caution that we are a nation prone to gossip by political necessity and it is gossip that drives these events and not justice.
You have heard that abortion is an unspeakable evil. Many have been herded by this argument into the notion that democrats are evil. Democrats are not evil. The old justices had no workable alternative; our new ones have none either, but they know that most in the old rank and file will not risk charges of crying fire in a theater by telling you this.
Doctors knew in the earliest days of the “pill” that large doses would abort a fetus. This is fact. The coming of the pill the IUD486, the “abortion pill”, is proof of the commercial inevitability of this “technology“. Given we are a nation of many tribes we are more vulnerable to the downside of having potions that could kill so easily in our midst that even the greediest Republican has not been able to unleash that monster here.
But within thirty years it had been offered commercially in France, where the populace is yet mad enough to think beheading people was a remedy for “social wrongs” and not the activity of greedy gossiping beasts. France paid a great price for this, I hope we are not as silly. (I count propaganda as gossip, they are the same art.) Please do not infer I hate my French blood, nor that I am above all propaganda.
Our leaders knew that the active ingredient of an abortion pill need not be delivered in a way that could be detected even today by any woman. Therefore if we were to introduce the pill into society (and the judiciary could not stop it’s introduction) prudence dictates that the nation should rest upon the morality of it’s women. The alternative is that economic forces alone would force the IUD486 issue into American culture and that from that position of widespread if illegal personal use to that widespread zygotic homicide of children desired more by those that conceived them than those that would have to pay the costs of socioeconomic competition. If you could go back in time and shoot your boss before he was born would you ? If it would have likely resulted in your being the boss would you have wanted your grandmother to have had a hand in the “unfortunate” “spontaneous abortion” of your boss, an act that only she would have ever known was the result of hormonal poisoning? Too many might say yes; too many know they are the grandma of a person that might be boss, if only an accident of “unnatural intervention“ takes place. (No, I don’t buy into the notion that there are mostly “good witches”; absolute power corrupts absolutely.)
As for the Pope, the Catholic position has always been no to the pill, perhaps as much for this reason as any other. Popes do not publicly like poison no matter what may have happened at Jamestown.
This isn’t the worst of things though. Our nation is undeniably under attack. It isn’t by a “religious faction” though. It is instead by a group of thugs who use religion to mask a natural (?) tendency to wage war on their benefactors. Of course I speak of the “drug lords”. Few realize that Bush has actually facilitated the spread of opiates, a major source of income for Al-Qaida. I doubt that GWB does not know his policies kill far more than the loss of the twin towers (over 4,400 every year die of direct action by illegal drugs). I doubt also that GWB is so ignorant that he does not know that that Grandmother with the abortion pill in the tea might as easily be that Grandmother with the heroin in the tea. You know what withdrawal symptoms are. You know a person denying drug use with obvious withdrawal symptoms is not likely to raise a champion of industry. Today Granny needn’t kill, and many “on drugs” isn’t on them so much as around them. (Grandma could just as easily be Grandpa too…)
Keep thee separate. Be mindful and keep diaries (as those in the Bible did). It’s easy to loose track of years if one isn’t mindful and self determined.
Few would seriously argue that Christian Americans caused this animosity. We in fact fed the sheep. It is not our teachings that permit death. It is the teachings of those who say piety is foolish that have led to this.
I tried to keep my children away from people who had attacked me, from infancy.
A future judge quietly told me that I had no right to try and save them from destruction. He said and I quote as near as I can recall : “you cannot even stop your child from running in front of a bus as to do so would constitute restraint and that is kidnapping in the eyes of the law, and thus child abuse.” Then he quietly laughed. This is what a Republican is to me, a mobster who thinks it’s funny to claim “Christianity” as his own, while supporting the destruction of his fellow countrymen, not because that fellow is evil, but because he can the divide the spoils with the foreign drug lord who is attacking his neighbor, rather than have to face the contempt of the church ladies (and gentlemen) who would just as soon pray for his destruction as they do the victims of this foreign invasion whom in their blind rage have judged sinful.
God does not hold grudges against a decent moral Christian men. Satan does. God tolerates us.
God may take my life, but I know that as I live well and in the name of God and so am I his charge.
This is the price for saying God is vengeful (as the majority cure): that Judge was not afraid of the drug lord. He was afraid of the church, and it’s politics of gossip, not for his souls sake but for the sake of his job. A drug lord can easily point the finger and get a “Christian” to eat one of his own. Until such time as we stop feeding our shepherds to the lionhearted flock we will be mock Christians, outside of the Grace of God, I suspect.
Go with God,

Murder is wrong in every sense of the word.
Gossip is a form of murder, even if it is not true, it intends to murder the character of another individual.
Abortion is murder.
Separating a dad from his children is murder.
Half of my family are democrats and half are republicans. People are not evil, but some of the things they fill themselves with are evil. Some of the things they do, think, and say are evil. "...for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth;"
Pride is evil in all of its forms as far as I know. The Spirit has not taught me any different, and I've been asking! (American pride, proud of my children.....any form).
Piety is not foolish to everyone, but it is just a hair's width away from self-righteousness. Integrity should be the more desired state, if my opinion matters.
President Bush would not sabotage our country. Anger does that. Our children have to live here and his do, too. What parent would want his children to be surrounded by evil, and plan and begin to situate things in their whole entire country to make this happen?
God does not tolerate us when we go astray. He doesn't ignore us. He chastises us so we can gain wisdom, knowledge and understanding to pull us closer to Him, or to improve our walk in someway. He teaches us things we need to know, to pass on for edification.
When I figured out this truth, life became a lot easier for me. I can dispise a person, and that person may never know it. I will remember it every second of every minute of every day and night. My stomach may boil, my head may pound, my blood pressure may go up, I may kick the dog (don't have one yet), I may lash out at other drivers on the street......None of this works. Because I let this rage inside of me, I have to go to the doctor more. I have to buy prescriptions. I may be allergic and have to go back again and buy more prescriptions. I have a medical record, maybe, because I needed antidepressants, or anti-psychotics.....and there was never anything really wrong with me. I was just angry! Then I might be taken to court. The court may decide I am unfit to be a parent. "Just look at that medical record!"
Anger is a devourer. It costs health. It costs money. It costs time sleeping. It costs time that could be spent loving your family, costs time especially loving God.
Overcoming is the name of the game. Ask God to kill people, and you will be killed as well as they because He's called us all to be One Body with Him. Ask God to bless them and sit back and watch! Believe the Word of God. Experiment with the Word of God. Nothing is more effective.
If you need good things to begin happening to you in your life, pray for others to have what you want - exactly. Especially those whom you think are your enemies or the ones who are 'doing everything wrong.'
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye doubleminded. Be afflicted and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up."
One thing I've done about judges and attorneys in courtrooms, is just to ask God to bless them until I am not angry anymore. Eventually, this is really fun! Sometimes when you see them, you just smile because you know God is answering your prayers (it is His will to bless them), and they will turn the most beautiful shade of red.

There was a fellow who was beaten and robbed and left to die beside the road.
As he lay there in labored breath waiting for the life to seep out of him onto the dry waste he heard a fellow pass by that he recognized as a fellow of his faith. That fellow thanked him for warning him that there were robbers in the area and left muttering : “What I do is give the robbers what they want and ask God to bless the robbers, that is really fun after awhile ! You just have to learn to love God more!”
Then after his feet went numb and a bird began to peck at his wounded back and he tried desperately to turn over from the pain, a fellow from the temple down the road from where he lived ran by. As he trod along he called out something about wishing he could be there in heaven with our hero, because hey at least then he wouldn’t be late for work. Then, under his breath the jogger said: “slacker, what did he expect, never going to the spa and getting fit (if he had he could have fought those robbers off). He was always reading those tech. manuals. What did he think, he was better than the rest of us? That pile of bones was going to go to the wilderness and get rich! He was going to come back and buy us all a Rolls! Ha! God showed him who was boss!”
Then that man waited and waited. Finally he died because none of his brothers or sisters believed. They had all been taught the story of the Good Samaritan, but they couldn’t be bothered to help a fellow that they knew, because (rather than the Bible) Calvin said so (!), that God must have wanted that fellow to die beside the road or he wouldn’t have let him be injured in the first place.
I live in a State where the Constitution prevents Taxation by the courts. If a court imposes a Tax it breaks Constitutional Law and thus becomes an entity of Governance outside of a Legal one. It has become in fact as defined by the Maine Constitution and Statutes a solicitor of bribes, as the definition of a solicited bribe is that there is a government service offered or threats of mistreatment nullified for the expectation of payment and all judges expect to get paid more when they flood the “General Fund” from which they get paid in Maine. The person paying six times his normal tax burden to increase a judges salary is paying a bribe. (My ex waived her child support as do many threatened by the “State”; all of the money goes to the Judge and his personal employees the DHHS. They are beholding to him as his crimes also increase their expected wages. This is the principle Constitutional reason that there is a separation of powers and why the Legislature can tax, but not a Judge. Taxes cannot be imposed on a personal level legally. If Al Capone gets placed on a bench, it is still not legal for him to shake down the owner of the corner grocer even in order to replace that business with cousin Guido’s , even if he calls it “child support”. Paying a bribe is a crime and the breaking of an oath I swore to God more times than I can recall - the Pledge of Allegiance. Perhaps you‘ve heard of it ?)
I am dying amidst the path of commerce, being slowly murdered by passive euthanasia of wounds suffered defending your oft professed way of life. I cannot so much as expect health care, as I cannot keep enough money to pay for it and the “State” will not permit a doctor to treat me if I will cost a “taxpayer” with “protected property rights” even so much as a share of business should I live. If Al Capone were in charge things would be no different. He would sell protection just as the “State” does, and attack those who oppose him, and hold those who oppose him to ridicule just as our “judges“ do those who‘s business interests and territories they want to “reallocate“.
But Al Capone was always a coward. He would never have attacked a fellow for challenging a minor whim if that fellow could prove he possessed enough capital to kill Al Capone. Thus the Court, while it will not allow me to earn or borrow enough to pay the bribe will permit a personal loan from an individual, because Al Capone, and not Christ, is their apparent role model. You don’t have to take my word for this, you can read the statutes and draw the only logical conclusions from them.
I reviewed GWB while he was in Bangor. GWB casually admitted to me in the presence of his fellow officers he is not from our country. I suspect your right when you say he would not betray his country, but there is such a large difference between your country and his. If our troops knew what I know, they would not go as easily to a place so far removed from our homes that they cannot defend our country from an enemy that kills more each year here than any War since WWII.
Now you know. Your there. You are in a position to get me to an inn (if I were quiet enough for the robbers not miss me gone from the road). You and your friends are in a position to alter the Laws and fire the judge; hire a posy and rout the robbers . You all know I’ve been robbed and you all know (or will know when you tell the rest) I’ve been beaten down. You know my enemies are watching me for signs of life and they know I will remember who they are and what they did and while I am exposed to their attacks they can easily kill me. You know they left me alive to scare you into paying any demand they ask.
You know that I am making too much noise for you to drag me away unseen. They will miss my protests and we might both suffer. So what’s next? Do you risk your neck? Or walk away muttering he gets what he deserved? If you do walk away will you elect to hire the robbers as you posy again next year?
Fact: Less than 37% pay anything, ever, of “child support”.
Fact: People with my problem disappear. Some of them have been saved by people like you from a fate worse than death.
Fact: This is a form of Slavery. And the tradition in most of this country is to fight for the rights of those enslaved. In all of this country there is at least some tradition of fight for civil treatment of slaves, even in cannibal Indian tribes.
Fact: As you mentioned “psyche drugs“, I’ll remind you that I read and know a few things. The effect of most psyche drugs is a fate worse than death. In effect “Tardive Dyskinesia” is much worse than Crucifixion. It is terminal and in terms of torture there has never been a more effective tool of oppression as it lasts a lifetime and is more painful longer than anything dreamed of yet. And I was informed before the “enlightenment” in the psychiatric community that at least the most popular drug now used causes just that syndrome deliberately - and this is all it’s supposed to do - the anti-Parkinson’s drugs and anxiety buffering are not the “active ingredient” but a method of making delivery of the active ingredient cheaper and less risky. Today the “law” forbids the drug companies from admitting it as it “violates the civil rights of the mentally ill to upset them”. If you support the current mental medical health community and their task masters (in my humble opinion) your heroes are mean spirited simpletons who think ritual abuse of anyone who critiques them is a Godly way of life. By the way, they lie. Legally a judge can send his friends and family into the community “to protect the mentally ill” by acting like the mentally ill, pretending to take the dope and living off the fat of the land. If you know a “recovered” mental patient that took a “Tardive Dyskinesia” causing drugs that has no symptoms, well bucko, your be a fellow being made fun of and asked to pay higher taxes to support a retired criminal so that the “judge” can further his domination of you and yours.

wadeedward I would like to pray for you and I will do so in spirit. I am unable to understand in the natural what it is that is upsetting you so much. May God be with you.
Posted by: pickone
Wade, tell us what you are so angry about. The thing that started it all. Don't go further until we have had a chance to tell you we understand that much, OK?
Posted by: pickone
I've read what you've said, and I understand that you are angry. It is making your mind jump around. I think you have a spirit of loneliness - this is not a thing to be pitied, but a thing to get rid of. Just ask God to make it go, in Jesus' Name. And ask Him not to let it come back. Don't doubt it and He will do it.
Medication can cause your thoughts to get jumbled. They may not seem jumbled to you, though. Sometimes my mind jumps around and this is normal for me, but I've really been trying to understand what you are telling me. I have to admit I am having a hard time, again.
I want to tell you that I will help you, but I know I can't without Him. It wouldn't do any good for you without Him. I can be someone who will listen, though. I won't ignore you unless He directs that I do.
Your good samaritan story is very dramatic. It may have actually happened pretty close to the way you've described it. But you know, we don't help God.
Mostly, I guess, we rely on other people who have God in them to show mercy to us. If God is not allowed to be the biggest thing in their lives, then we will not meet Him in a big way through them. Does that make sense to you?
Posted by: wadeedward
Arighty then, did you get that I was giving you a "modernized" reference to the Parable told by Christ of the good Samaritan ?
Posted by: wadeedward
Do any of you understand the Parable of the Good Samaritan ?
Posted by: pickone
Yes, I got it. I thought I understood. Am I doing something wrong?
Posted by: pickone
You've been bruised and stripped by the world. You've been crying out in pain and it seems that no one is listening or if they've heard, they've ignored you and walked around you.
You are laying in the street and I am just talking to you, but not being very helpful.
Is that right?

These two things are come unto thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?
Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people, Behold, I have taken out of thine hand the cup of trembling, even the dregs of the cup of my fury; thou shalt no more drink it again:
But I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; which have said to thy soul, Bow down, that we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as the street, to them that went over.

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealously.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which ye have showed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

If you saw a fellow side the road bleeding then you would help ?
Cool.
But the "Your angry" bit is a bit much.
I'm not angry. I gave up my anger years ago. I am determined to win back my family lands and make use of some prison labor.
If I say something against nacre terror in the US it is with cold deliberate calculation. If I say that our Government has not only been ineffective at reducing nacre terror it looks very much like it is happy to support it, I know you know I'm not drunk with pain. Heroin is flowing into the US (but not in my house, and I'm thankful for that). "Al Quid" is profiting from the drug traffic; it's bonanza business for them.
If I say that the courts in the US have a clear record of abuse of power in divorce cases I'm echoing a US Supreme court justice that said it is Kangaroo court. (Was that man "angry"? Certainly he was incoherent??? No Christian would ever be able to fathom such a statement, surely?)
When I say that in Maine jail for divorce decree "violations" are considered contempt of court and therefore are not "protected by jury trial, etc." you can know I know that divorced Mainers have less civil rights than those at Guantanamo, and if you look at the statutes and (all of) the case law this should be clear. A judge here has no limits to his power. It is not a misdemeanor to fail to pay a poor tax, even when a judge caused the poverty by deliberate criminal action. As it was on a chain gang in the deep south many of those in prison will never come back (there I here it was 2 years life expectancy.)
The big difference of course is Northern States often would not extradite for failure to pay a poor tax or vagrancy. There were places a fellow could go.
The reason that there is no place to go is that just as you read the story of the good Samaritan so did the devil as it were. The devil evidently wanted the Samaritan's charge to die. He has therefore given our courts to the robbers and made theft the law, and all but mock support of the victim is a crime.
The answer is involvement. Don't read a "News Paper" or watch a "News Show" that takes only the court's position and reports only what the court wants reported. Read the reports from the oversight committees, so when they document that they are going to commit what any sane man would call fraud you can act like a man, and catch them at it. (Really, they did just that in Maine! Read the reports mandated by the "consent decree" - "Bates -v- Glover". One year they literally stated the plan would blame the records department!)
If enough people get evolved we might actually avoid slow deliberate genocide.
Go With God,

Divorce courts give women way too much power, in most cases.
The judge seems to take the woman's first. If you are not real good at communicating what you are thinking, you will lose. Not only in Maine.
It is wrong to take a dad away from his children and give them to a woman who lies to get them, but it happens every day. When she remarries, she shouldn't keep getting "raises" either.
When you get beaten down bad enough, you might try to break your "give a darner," but it is really hard to get rid of that anger sometimes. You are a better man than many I know if you don't have any leftovers.
If I saw a man bleeding, I would ask for permission to help him, because I am a woman and want to stay under obedience to God. If He told me to just do it, I wouldn't hesitate, because I'd be moving under His covering.
Do you think maybe that is what you are supposed to do? Help men get their kids back? Someone on this site has a little quote at the bottom of their posts and it says something like, "God doesn't call the ones who are qualified, but He qualifies the ones He calls." That is cool...
We've (my husband and I) lost many things to the evil authorities in this world, but God promises restoration and healing, if we are obedient. His ways and thoughts are not ours, though, and they have to be figured out.

What is nacre terror?
Sorry I thought you were angry.
Also, "not with wine" doesn't mean drugs or some other physical intoxicant. It is speaking of spiritual intoxication. Like pentecost, it happened in the Old Testament, New Testament, and it still happens today.
It is fun! But you don't kill people accidently, and it doesn't cost money.
Maybe you didn't want to hear about this, though. I'll try to behave.
