Intro to ‘Reliving the Fall of Rome?’

Intro by John R. Houk

Intro date: 6/22/15

Elsa Schieder Ph.D. is a Liberal/Progressive academic from Canada. The appellation of the word “Liberal” usually means she is the enemy as far as my political spectrum goes. However I have to say she is a Liberal I admire.

Dr. Schieder (I believe she prefers Dr. Zee) is one of the few Liberals that gets it about the threat of Islam (she would probably prefer Radical Islam) to Western Civilization. The reality of life is that all sides of the Western political spectrum should be concerned of just how anti-Western and in my perspective Anti-Christian and Anti-Jewish.

Dr. Schieder is a busy gal. I know her from the World Truth Summit is a forum for prominent Counterjihad writers to expose Islam. She is also a bit of a poet (which is beyond my barbarian expertise), a Blogger, a critical thinker (Idea Emporium) and probably more pans in the fire than I know.

I’m on Dr. Schieder’s email list. Her 6/21 email has observations about the West in which I wholly agree. She entitles it “Reliving the Fall of Rome?” After you read I think you may agree a better title would have been from her own words – “Brain Wreck”.

Dr. Schieder precedes her thoughts with some poetry to music videos relating to peaceful unity, the idiocy of Islamic hatred and a somewhat ethereal poem about YOU being the wild card to effect global chaos. However I am more interested in her thoughts about reliving world leaders allowing the destruction of the fabric of society. Thus I am placing the videos at the end rather than the beginning.

Reliving the Fall of Rome?

By Elsa Schieder PhD

Sent: 6/21/2015 6:15 AM

Sometimes I feel I'm living through the fall of Rome. More on that in a bit. First, something that's not on the idea side. 3 songs - one on what we'd love to have (The Garden), one on what we're up against (Too Many Heads Off), and one on the role of the joker (The Joker is Wild). So 3 songs, and then back to Rome, Nero and the present.

Sometimes I feel I'm living through the fall of Rome. I remember reading about Nero fiddling, and about huge spectacles held to keep Roman citizens happy - gladiators killing each other, Christians thrown to lions.

And now I'm living through stories in the news that make no sense to me, with my care for facts - American blacks rioting and a president siding with the rioters when a white cop shoots a black thief, though there is massive evidence that the cop was more than fair. Islamic State - beheadings, sex slavery, ongoing suicide murdering - and the ongoing denial by many people in the West that Islamic State, which quotes from Islamic texts, is Islamic. The stories are just too insane.

And then there is the massive influx into Europe and the States of people whose Islamic ideology favors destroying every ideology but theirs, destroying any ideology that is pro male female equality, pro-democracy, pro the acceptance of other religions.

It makes no sense. If this were a dream, I would tell myself to wake up.

Instead, a huge part of me just cannot believe that what is happening could possibly be happening.

Another part asks: how does one stop this? What more can I do to turn the tide?

Quite an expression - to turn the tide!! Quite something to even think of doing.


I've been doing a lot of thinking about BrainWreck - the wrecking of people's brains in the West. It goes with something I've thought and written a lot about - Think or Sink: We Think or the West Sinks.

How to deal with wrecked brains - like the brains of the politically correct? Like the brains of those who refuse to look at the content of Islam and instead intone "all cultures are equal"? In fact, do we deal with such brainwrecked people? Or do we concentrate on people with un-wrecked - or anyway, relatively unwrecked - brains?

Something to think about.


By the way, how do you like the term, brainwrecked - rather than the milder term, politically correct? Does the term resonate for you?


Here's my viewpoint. I understand the value of using terms people know. I also understand the value of using a new term for something different.

Politically correct is the term for a mindset. Brain wreck is a term for something different: what's needed inside the brain for a person to be politically correct. Inside the politically correct: a brain wreck.


And finally, before ending, an announcement: I'm going to try something new. A short Wednesday video - 5 min max. Why Wednesday? It's mid-week. Far away enough from the weekend before, and the weekend coming. My guess: people may have a few minutes. The goal: to give something not just to watch, but to share.


And now, all the best to all of us who care and dare,

Elsa

PS. More on brainwrecked brains. Here's a great short video on the content of Islamic texts and the Islamic response: https://youtu.be/bMl8pzyAx0g. Once again, inside the brain, a brain wreck.

PPS. By the way, if you like any of the songs, please share. My sense: something is blocking our having a music of our own. And of course, if you like any of the ideas, please also share those. 

And finally, something new.

AGAIN! Religion of Peace, Not so Peaceful

John R. Houk

© February 22, 2011

Lara Logan is a Correspondent for CBS News. She is a face of the Left Wing media which CBS inherently inhabits. Left Wing means an emphasis on multiculturalism and political correctness. If you have read this far you might be thinking “So what? Is this supposed to be news that Lara Logan and CBS have an affinity for a Leftist slant on the news? Well allow me to add a bit more.

Every time I am about to allow myself to form an opinion that a majority of Muslims are moderate in nature and focusing on the benefits of being in holy submission to the Islamic Allah (I mean it was rough to use the word “holy”), I come across an incident in which a large crowd of Muslims is supposed to be representative of the moderate nature of Islam. What is that incident and what does that incident have to do with Leftist journalism? Lara Logan was surrounded by a large group of Muslim men that separated her from her security. These Muslim men proceeded to chant “Jew, Jew!” and “American bitch!” THEN the Muslim men began ripping her clothes off and brutally and forcefully raped Lara Logan.

Typically Left Wing CBS made an effort not to blame the people of the so-called moderate Muslim doctors, lawyers and intelligentsia expressing their peaceful protest to rid their nation of the despotic dictator Hosni Mubarak. CBS even attempted to utilize disinformation to say that Lara Logan was unjustly arrested by Egyptian soldiers who roughly interrogated her for being an Israeli spy.

The reality was there were so many people surrounding the victim Logan; it was probably difficult to tell who the assaulters were and who the innumerable watchers who did not intervene were. Indeed, it is reported that after an ample amount of time passed for the Muslim men to pleasure themselves brutally and mercilessly a group of Muslim women and Egyptian soldiers put an end to the rape transporting Logan to a hospital.

Andrew McCarthy in a National Review article enumerates the Quranic suras that allow Muslim men to rape kafir (non-Muslim) women even when married. To read the grisly details that CBS refused to admit happened go to Radio Patriot which has a reprint of a Wizbang article.

Something to consider about Islam in the 21^st century is that the heart of theological-academic learning of the Muslim religion is in Cairo, Egypt at Al-Azhar University. The Muslim world reads what these Muslim intellectuals write to their kind on how a Muslim should treat a kafir or how to live in a kafir land (dar al-harb) and for that matter on how to treat kafir in Muslim lands (dar al-Islam). Al-Azhar is supposed to represent Sunni Islam which is 90% of Islam. AND these Sunnis are supposed to be the scholars that Muslim apologists point to when a person as me shows that the Religion of Peace is anything but peaceful. Islam is inherently adversarial and violent.

Here is a YouTube video of David Pakman reporting on what really happened to Logan near Tahrir Square.

God Almighty I ask you to strengthen Lara Logan to overcome the violation that NO woman should experience whether they are Secularists, Christians, Jews or Muslims.

Political Correctness Runs Amok in UK

John R. Houk
© December 9, 2009

The plague of being politically correct is the blight imposed on culture to sanitize concepts of multiculturalism or diversity. Being PC these days seems to be an attack on Christian Free Speech and Religious Freedom.

The PC assault on Christianity also seems to be strongest during the Christmas season. It could be the PC assault is more noticeable during Christmas because even nominal or secular minded Christians tend to have an awareness of the PC attack for even the MSM reports on such. The MSM reports tends to validate the humanist view which leads to a Leftist love affair with the contrived concept Separation of Church and State.

The implementation of the PC assault on Christianity often has its testing ground in Europe. Secular Humanism has nearly made the faith of Christianity an anachronism in Europe. Thus the concept of French egalitarianism has reinforced the Leftist view multicultural diversity. By extension then the morally corrupt alternate lifestyle of homosexuality or transgenderism has brainwashed a formerly Christian moral society into acceptance as normal.

The PC assault on Christianity unfortunately includes defining as hate speech anything of Biblical Morality that insults the Leftist warped concept of multiculturalism. In Europe calling homosexuality evil immorality could land you in jail or a hefty civil suit as hate speech.

Criminalizing or rendering politically incorrect the act of standing behind Christian tenets of faith can also get one in legal trouble by talking negatively about the theo-political death cult known as the religion of Islam.

The criminalizing of standing against alternate lifestyles or a religion that should be offensive to Christians and secularists alike usually has its beginning in Europe. Such is the case of hotel owners Ben and Sharon Vogelenzang of the United Kingdom.

The Vogelenzangs have been described as Christians. That is a rare breed in Europe today. It seems that most Europeans consider the Christian faith to be a politically incorrect anachronism of yesteryear.

What was the criminal hate crime the Vogelenzangs are accused of?

Let’s look at some possibilities Christians should be concerned about with Islam:

· Islamic Supremacism: The belief that Islam is superior to all religions or cultural practices to the point of violent intolerance.

· Women treated as chattel.

· Islam treats multiculturalism as evil for it insults the supremacy of Allah and the deity’s prophet Mohammed. Hence in the Muslim world atheism, homosexuality, transgenderism et al can lead to a capital crime. In the non-Muslim world (e.g. the West) women can be targets of rape, women can be the recipients of an honor killing for offending the Muslim family, Muslim only zones exist in which Shariah Law is enforced which is counter Western principles Liberty, Freedom and the pursuit of happiness.

· I could find more reasons to criticize Islam but time to look for specifics eludes me.

Specifically the Vogelenzangs are accused of the heinous crime of describing to a Muslim hotel guest that the hijab is female bondage and that Mohammed was a warlord.

If this kind of multicultural diversity comes to America, God have mercy on our soul and may the legacy of the Founding Fathers forgive us.
