RAMANAM
In the Name of The Father, and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit, Amen.
Countrymen,
Recently, The Fraud discharged another tooth-grinding moral equivalence, this time between, in an abstract, the Christian Crusades, which were conducted by The Church against Caliphists’ disruption and closing of communications and the Christian Inquisition — there have been more than one, thankfully — which are conducted by The Church against ignorance, corruption and heresy among the churches and, in a concrete, the immolation of a combat pilot and the lapidation, strangulation and decapitation of men, women and children conducted, for high-profile public effect, by the same Caliphists whose nature is to disrupt and close others’ communications.
A religion is a liberty-inducing power of being created by God for that purpose. An idolatry is a narrowing concept created by men and women to hide their looting of others’ wealth.
Christianity is a religion. Caliphism is an idolatry. Islam, a religion, is long-since all but extinguished between the grinding teeth of Caliphism.
Religions do not commit atrocities. Idolatries do. Religions make calm. Idolatries make chaos.
The Fraud made moral equivalence between a religion, Christianity, and an idolatry, Caliphism. The equivalence is fraudulent, a work of degenerate and therefore feeble minds. The Fraud and cohort are, at base level, but common thieves and an atrocity by voters, reflecting voters’ idolatry of envy and deficiency of a mother’s love.

Update 11: Ignore The Dire Warnings About Our Lives Because It’s Just Hysteria
Update 12: A most compelling post, thank you! Puts me in mind of Teilhard de Chardin, who saw in the hard sciences of geological and paleontological process and result the phenomenology of divine life, of God alive and kicking, so to speak. A novel immanentalism of sorts, precedented but unique in the history of Christian thought. Here Fernandez sees in structural engineering attitudes phenomenological actualities of social engineering assumptions, deftly expressed. Other commenters also appreciate this post’s brilliant helpfulness.
Update 13: Iran, India, Russia, Kurdistan, Iraq, O My!
AUM NAMAH SHIVAYA
