Zen Buddhism is full of stories about practitioners staring death in the face in order to cut through their mental habits and force a direct confrontation with the fundamental matter. Monks doing zazen on a cliff’s edge to keep themselves alert, rMshis telling frustrated students to kill themselves if they cannot achieve satori by next sunrise, students taking death vows if they fail to awaken within a given period of time, etc. In Helen Tworkov’s Zen in America for example we are told of “the monk who sat with a stick of incense in one hand and a knife in the other and vowed to kill himself if he didn’t get enlightened by the time the incense burned out. As ...
Chris Hedges: The Politics of Cultural Despair

It is despair that is killing us, eating into the social fabric, rupturing social bonds, and manifesting in self-destructive pathologies. Princeton, New Jersey (Scheerpost) — The physical and moral decay of the United States and the malaise it has spawned have predictable results. We have seen in varying forms the consequences of social and political collapse during the twilight of the Greek and Roman empires, the Ottoman and Hapsburg empires, Tsarist Russia, Weimar Germany and the former Yugoslavia. Voices from the past, Aristotle, Cicero, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Joseph Roth and Milovan Djilas, warned us. But blinded by self-delusion and hubris, as if we are somehow exempt from human ...

Jon Voight: The Left Is Deceitful, Ask God To 'Rid This Horror' from America By Jack Davis Published October 19, 2020 at 11:15am Actor Jon Voight has posted an impassioned plea for President Donald Trump’s re-election, framing the election as a battle between good and evil. “Biden is evil,” Voight, 81, said to open the two-minute video posted to his Twitter account. “Trump must win — he’s real. He will bring back the people’s trusts. These leftists are not for the American people. It’s the biggest cover-up ever,” Voight said. The actor warned against backsliding into the abyss of the Obama years. ...

Pastor of Church Targeted by California Has a Powerful Message for Believers By Andrew J. Sciascia Published October 10, 2020 at 3:37pm A prominent American evangelist is back in the news this week with another inspiring message from the front lines of the months-long fight to protect in-person worship. In a short video released Wednesday on social media, Grace Community Church pastor John MacArthur of Los Angeles called on churches and believers across the country to “be the church” and continue gathering, despite government efforts to prohibit such activity through the strict legal enforcement of coronavirus-related public health restrictions. “This is a church ...
Godless Vandals Decapitate Jesus in El Paso

Godless Vandals Decapitate Jesus in El Paso You read that right. They finally came for Jesus. The Antifa-Woke-BLM-Socialist-Anarchist-Crybaby-Marxist mob finally came after Jesus. First, they smashed the downtowns of cities, busting up and destroy Tiffany’s, Game Stop, Nike and JC Penney’s, not protesting the death of any black man but using the opportunity as a smash-and-grab so they could steal designer jeans and video game consoles. When that wasn’t enough they started to firebomb police stations, banks, federal court houses (like the one in Portland, which President Trump sent in the National Guard to successfully defend). Then they came for Main St. America and the ...

BLM Benediction? Priest Leads Catholics through Mass with World’s Wokest Prayer

Rev. Kenneth Boller of St Xavier Catholic Church in NYC led his church through a read- and response prayer that reads like BLM activists broke into to church at night and taped a manifesto to his sermon notes. In an act reminiscent of a shepherd grabbing his sheep by the scruff and beating them for not being black enough, Boller utilizes what is normally a theologically solid segment of the liturgy and injects it with the worst excesses of wokefolk theology, flicking the congregation’s ears and yanking their wool until the sheep bleat with shame “Baaaaaaah. Blaaaaaaaack Lives Maaaaaaaater” After all, what is at the altar but their new gods? Move over Mary, time to pray some ...

Ilhan Omar Demands Apology From MSNBC's Joy Reid Over "Islamophobic Comments" by Tyler Durden Tue, 09/01/2020 - 20:55 MSNBC personality Joy Reid is under fire once again after making an allegedly "Islamaphobic" comment". But this time, her accuser is none other than controversial Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, who herself has refused to apologize for comments that were heralded as anti-semitic, while once blithely - and publicly - dismissing 9/11 as "a thing that happened". Omar and a anti-defamation league-type group called Muslim Advocates complained that Reid made callously Islamophobic remarks on air during a broadcast the other night. ...

A "lucky" mobile phone number has sold for a whopping 2.25 million yuan ($300,000) after hundreds of people vied online for the right to use the apparently auspicious string of digits. The number ends in five eights, a sought-after combination in China as the word "eight" in Mandarin sounds similar to the word for "prosperity". The number was among assets seized and ordered auctioned by a court in Beijing, and an online sale attracted more than five thousand bids between Saturday and Sunday. Phone users in China -- especially companies seeking to impress clients and business partners -- often pay a premium for combinations of digits considered lucky. Eight ...

Schweizer: Harris Engaged in ‘a Massive Cover-Up’ of Alleged Clergy Sex Abuse By Ian Hanchett - August 13, 2020 On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Breitbart News senior contributor and Government Accountability Institute President Peter Schweizer stated that 2020 Democratic vice presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) engaged in a “massive cover-up” of alleged sexual abuse against Catholic priests. He explained that many “law firms and lawyers and people connected to the church hierarchy” financed the Harris campaign. Schweizer said Harris did “not well at all, particularly on very ...
Why Kanye’s Presidential Platform is Good News

He may not have a chance, but he’s offering something precious: Hope. In the matter of rap artist Kanye West’s presidential campaign, the two storylines that most preoccupy the media are, a) Is he crazy? and b) Is this all a Republican plot to drain black votes away from Joe Biden? Yet there’s a third question that could be asked: Does West have something valuable to say? To answer that question, we might consider his presidential campaign platform, which he released on August 9. Right away, the title grabs one’s attention: “Creating a Culture of Life.” That phrase, of course, is borrowed from the Catholic Church and embraced by the Right to Life ...

The Left Cries for 'Separation of Church and State,' but It Has No Idea What That Means By Andrew J. Sciascia Published August 5, 2020 at 12:11pm When it comes to the U.S. Constitution and the words of the Founding Fathers, leftists possess an almost impressive capacity for selective understanding. From the Second Amendment to the purposes and standards of impeachment, the American left can read just about anything into, or out of, the broader American founding and framework to fit its political needs. And nowhere has this been better exemplified in recent months and years than in the dialogue surrounding religious liberty — or, more specifically, the “separation of ...

Man Allegedly Opens Fire Because Mother and Son Weren't Social Distancing, Police Say By Christine Favocci Published July 31, 2020 at 11:58am The virtue signaling, intolerance for other viewpoints and general insanity in our culture mostly driven by the left has somehow centered around the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s coronavirus safety recommendations, making violence against those who refuse to comply almost a commonplace occurrence. Douglas Marks, emboldened by government edict and perhaps touched by a bit of mental illness (increasingly difficult to assess in today’s culture) allegedly opened fire on a mother and son because they were not socially ...

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) spent her afternoon Thursday explaining to her Instagram followers that America is racist because "virtually" all of the statues in the U.S. Capitol represent "colonizers and settlers."

The year 2020 is not passing quietly. We are witnessing events unthinkable even a few months ago: keep your anti-social distance, wear a mask when entering a bank, follow the arrows on the floor of the supermarket, all sporting events cancelled, homeschooling – even for university students – is approved by all corners of government and society. Most relevant to this discussion: pot shops, liquor stores, and abortion clinics are essential, churches during Holy Week are not. Add to this the protests – more specifically the riots. Police told by government officials to stand down. Those who intend to defend their lives and their property are the ones judged – by the ...
Bloodshed, Tyranny and Privation

On June 24th, Trump said, “I think many of the people that are knocking down these statues don’t even have any idea what the statue is… Now they’re looking at Jesus Christ.” Actually, both the iconoclasts and their backers know very well what they’re destroying, and who they’re humiliating, deracinating and subjugating. Though often messy, their process has been laser focused and methodical. Though Trump avoided naming his trigger, it was clear he was responding to Shaun King, who had tweeted on June 22nd: Yes, I think the statues of the white European they claim is Jesus should also come down. They are a form of white supremacy. Always have been. ...
Churches Report Chicago Officials are Threatening to Bulldoze Their Facilities for Not Complying with COVID-19 Mandates

The lawyer for two Chicago churches has reported that city officials informed his clients that they would consider bulldozing their facilities if they do not comply with COVID-19 edicts. Matt Staver, the founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel, said on Wednesday that the city is classifying his clients as “public nuisances.” He said they were issued a letter declaring that the city “has the power and duty to cause all nuisances affecting the health of the public to be abated.” The letter threatened a “summary abatement,” which would mean the destruction of the facilities without due process. Staver said during an appearance on the “Todd Starnes Radio ...

Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert A shape with lion body and the head of a ...

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has made his name – and plenty of enemies – by publishing military and other highly sensitive secrets of multiple governments around the world. As a consequence, he now calls a maximum-security jail in England home while he fights a bitter battle with the Trump administration which wants him extradited to the United States. Before prison, the controversial – and now very frail – Australian spent seven years holed up in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. And that’s where Assange conceived his own top secrets – two sons with his, until now, equally secretive fiancée, Stella Moris. Poster Comment:This is heart-rending. ...
Catholic Church lobbied for taxpayer funds, got at least $1.4B

NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. Roman Catholic Church used a special and unprecedented exemption from federal rules to amass at least $1.4 billion in taxpayer-backed coronavirus aid, with many millions going to dioceses that have paid huge settlements or sought bankruptcy protection because of clergy sexual abuse cover-ups. The church’s haul may have reached — or even exceeded — $3.5 billion, making a global religious institution with more than a billion followers among the biggest winners in the U.S. government’s pandemic relief efforts, an Associated Press analysis of federal data released this week found. Houses of worship and faith-based organizations that promote ...

Homo homini lupus est, said Plautus. Our new masters beat the old Roman comic dramatist at his game by establishing Homo homini toxic est as the new norm. They have trained us to be afraid of each other, to wear masks, to keep social distance, or even better, to stay home. They prefer it this way, with us locked away, out of their way, ordering things by Internet and forfeiting our homes to digital debt collectors. A junkie would sooner part with his syringe than they would drop their lockdowns. For a while, we entertained the hope that they might end their morbid preoccupation with our health after a month or two. Now we know better. Even if they decide that Covid-19 was eradicated, they ...

“Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry” ~ Acts 17:16 Many Christians recently received a double whammy of blasphemy and idolatry because the Fourth of July fell on a Saturday this year. Most churches—and especially conservative, evangelical churches—usually have some kind of a patriotic service on the Sunday before the Fourth of July. If you have the misfortune of attending, there you will see the church building and the grounds around the church decorated with American flags, hear special prayers for the troops and government officials, see military personnel wearing their uniforms to ...
