Do you ever get the sense the Universe is winking at you from behind a veil of illusion or simulation? You’re probably right. Except the Universe is the illusion and it cannot wink.
My aunt found this Bible at her house and brought it to me the other day. It was given to me the day I was saved, June 13, 1986 at vacation Bible school. I was staying at her house at the time with my mom and two younger sisters after my parents’ divorce. I was 8 years old.
Later, I spent a lot of years as a professed agnostic, because I felt like it was the only logically defensible position to have in life, but I was forgetting the immutable axiom that no position which assumes the power of the human mind to discern Truth is ever truly safe or logical. We all need God in our lives. I’m just glad to be reminded of this again.
Hope y’all are having the kind of day that reminds you how lucky you are to be a part of Creation…perhaps even in spite of yourselves.
I posted this as a live stream earlier today, but as with most of my more controversial live streams on YouTube, I usually either take them down or put them behind a paywall within a day so as not to give my enemies an easy way to attack me. If they want to attack me, I would rather make it slightly harder for them. As I say in the video, whether someone is Jewish is not material to me. That fact alone does mean I cannot be someone's friend. I have Jewish members of my extended family, in fact, who I love and would also fight for. But when Israel (which happens to be a Jewish state) starts behaving like a mafia and using their collective power to attack people I care about to deprive my family of power or access to resources, I start to get angry. Now you're acting like a mafia. Now you're fucking with my world. At some point we have to fuck back. More to come on this as my thoughts evolve, but at this point, I'm seeing no good way forward other than punishing the GOP who take their ...
Not sure if this is something I'll ever publish on the channel, so I thought I'd include it here as an exclusive. Enjoy!
In this video, I put on the cloak of a preacher and talk about why the modern state of Israel spoken about in Genesis 12 is NOT the same as the modern state of Israel we see today and why this idea that we should never oppose Israel is a false teaching. I will back my argument up with Christian scripture. This is something I've never attempted to do before - offer up a Biblical teaching. I do not feel qualified at all. In fact, I am probably one of the least qualified preachers on earth. But maybe that's why you should listen anyway. If you have more to add, or if you have a rebuttal, feel free to comment. I'm all ears and willing to learn more.
Hey Brad, how crazy would it be to take a chassis of a PCB guitar amp, and rip out the insides to make it point to point? I have a few PCB amps, and if those boards go conductive eventually and kill the amp, I'm wondering if it would be feasible to turn them into projects and rebuild the guts. If it matters, specifically I have an Orange Rocker Terror and a Marshall SC20H (their 20 watt mini 2203).
Repairing my backyard deck and I found something truly shocking and disturbing. This was a terrible accident waiting to happen and luckily I found it in time! This shows why it's really important if you own a home with a deck to inspect your deck and how it's built to ensure its safety.
