Demonic America

Original Material | 4/6/2016 | By Laz A. Mataz

Rudyard Kipling wrote a prescient poem in 1919, called "Gods of the Copybook Headings.". This is, simply put, a must-read poem.

Copybooks were texts that allowed British schoolchildren of the time to practice penmanship, and the phrase they would copy -- often a phrase of a sermon, or some wise aphorism -- would be featured on the copybook heading. Kipling was appalled by the counterintuitive modern thoughts of the day, and wrote the poem to point out how eons of wisdom and experience of humankind were hard-won, and he urged us not to embrace the depraved 'shortcuts' we began to take.

Like Kipling -- though lacking his talent -- I, too, urge us to take stock of where we are. Are we in open rebellion with morality and common-sense? Are we in a pitched war with reality? Have we become a Demonic America?

1. Companies, and now the Obama administration, are now punishing states that pass laws that demand that men stay in the men's bathrooms and locker rooms, and that women do the same.
2. Planned Parenthood, a company that performs mass abortions, are selling the body parts of their victims.
3. Lawmakers on both sides see the carnage, rape, and murder in Europe from the introduction of millions of Muslim "refugees", then promptly seek to emulate, here, the policies that allow them to come.
4. On college campuses, free speech is shouted down and censored, so that a few 'snowflakes' are not offended. One may not say gender-specific pronouns, or state that "America is a land of opportunity", lest one be censured. This lawless administration intends to prosecute companies and individuals who seek scientific clarity on 'manmade global warming', essentially outlawing true scientific inquiry.
5. Our President lies constantly about everything, even when the truth would serve him better. Obama and Hillary Clinton conspired to send advanced military arms, through Libya, to Muslim terrorists and extremists.
6. A racially-aligned group -- Black Lives Matter -- have pointedly decried anyone who states that the lives of any other racial group also matters. Is this not racism in the truest form? Is this not racial superiority writ large?
7. The TSA, a Federal Agency, routinely gropes the genitalia of American travelers, and we have grown desensitized to this horrific level of personal intrusion.
8. Then there is the freedom to kill infants, codified in 1973 by a bizarre Supreme Court decision.

Take yourself back ten years, and (except for the last item, which is older) ask if you would have physically struck a future-you that claimed that any of the above would come to pass.

I know I would.

There can be no doubt. We are in the clutches of great evil. Common sense has been thrown aside for bizarre and absurd conclusions that fly in the face of 2000 years of civilization, and the ideals of decency that surrounded us.

I have not even discussed other forms of evil, such as the Administration's betrayals of Israel -- including an implied threat to shoot down Israeli aircraft that would have struck Iran's nuclear facilities. There are so many other examples, too numerous to list. It all comes together to inform us that this is Satan's time, a time of unbridled evil.

Back in the 1970's and 1980's, I used to listen Iran call us the 'Great Satan' with a combination of derision and bemusement.

Now, I actually wonder... is that what we have become?

These are some very messed up times.

The only answer is God.

I mean, they're even putting up statues.

America is satan’s chew toy

[Larry Lucido]

In before the...

Damn you!

[Lazamataz]

Apparently. I always wondered why we were not mentioned in Revelations. I know why, now.

Very well put

Thank you, Laz ... and God bless you

I left out one bullet in my item list.

Satan did it.

These are some very messed up times.

The only answer is God.

Amen!

During the time of Lot, if only people would have turned back to God, the cities would have not been destroyed.

We only have to look to those times to understand you have the correct answer to getting our nation and world back.

Insightful post. Only someone coming to grips with their own demons can come to view the world in this way.

From Barrack Room Ballads

I have made for you a song,
And it may be right or wrong,
But only you can tell me if it’s true;
I have tried for to explain
Both your pleasure and your pain,
And, Thomas, here’s my best respects to you!

O there’ll surely come a day
When they’ll give you all your pay,
And treat you as a Christian ought to do;
So, until that day comes round,
Heaven keep you safe and sound,
And, Thomas, here’s my best respects to you!

It’s important, BTW, to make a nice concise list of the evils circulating our land. It puts it all into focus.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Indeed,Laz. We certaintly are in a mess. I worry for my children and pray for them every day. Do they even have a future here? Independent, free, prosperous?

With the birth of Artificial Intelligence, does MANKIND have a future?

It is my thesis that when the AntiChrist comes, it will be in the form of Artificial Intelligence.
