Very susceptible to insanity, expediency and mass media opium. Public discourse is essentially like a 'puppet, following predictable patterns. The Nazis of yesterday are the climate rallies of today, etc. <br /><br />I recall Iran has called the flu a biological weapon. I haven't seen media report anything about it which seems to suggest they are merely casting out smokescreens for the political agenda behind this. I believe, because the public has lost God, people lack scepticism and sensitivity to anything beyond the front pages of social reality. I wonder why Iran (the spiritual mother of Indo-European civilization) is so affected while surrounding countries show a very small amount of problems. My instincts tell me the demons are working full-cylinder on this one.<br /><br />Atheism is the opium of the people.Adilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12458942641355740167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683970826895755480.post-17176424619661279902020-03-20T16:33:16.279+00:002020-03-20T16:33:16.279+00:00It is certainly very odd how almost everyone just ...It is certainly very odd how almost everyone just goes along with the party line.

I suppose some third world nations would be exempt, for the time being - not least because this kind of thing could not be imposed; but I think one would need some direct personal information to know this (rather than media filtered and twisted). <br /><br />My mind keeps recurring to various end times prophecies that I used to find rather hard to comprehend - about the deceptions of Antichrist and the way that the faithful are nearly all led astray. That's how I see it; I quite honestly think that *almost* everybody is literally (although not medically) insane. <br /><br />Interestingly, the blogger Z-Man (who is not a Christian, nor religious) has kept his head pretty well - indeed, his perspective seems to have improved as the crisis progressed; it seems to have partly awakening him. Z realises that this reaction will certainly crash the world economy, and will certainly cause at least *many* millions of deaths due to 'shortages' (personally I would multiply this by ten or a hundred, even in a timescale of months). <br /><br />But hardly anybody other than myself (and good old David Icke!) regards this impending collapse and mass death due to The Reaction (the birdemic being trivial) as deliberately planned - indeed carefully and cleverly planned (preferring instead to regard it as due to irrationality, ignorance or recklessness).

A time for all the distractions to fall by the wayside, and for people to be put in a position where they, as individuals, are before God with plenty of time to spend with Him. If this *is* the end for most of us (I do not think it is), then it's an allowance of time for the undecided to ask the question posed by Johnny Cash. "Will you partake of that last offered cup?"<br /><br />"Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away... ... And now these three remain: faith, hope and love.

A great Systemic fire drill, if you will.<br /><br />I guess this will be the last blow to the remains of spontaneous public as well as private civil society. From now on, no nice little pubs or 'unplanned' personal environments. Finally, everyone is to be a monitored cubicle-apartment individualist, serving the corporations. Ideally avoiding as much 'unnecessary' human contact as possible. No one will escape the Eye of Sauron.<br /><br />Because of this, I like your idea of opposing anonymity. In a monitored society, it is better to stay firm in the light than pretending to hide behind the bush.

...From a comment by Jake:<br /><br />Inspiring post, Bruce...<br /><br />This period of social madness and evil is coming at a very odd time for me. Why? Because it is precisely at this time that I've fallen in love with a woman, and just previously that, found a path that is leading me to God and actual Christian faith...<br /><br />...To be courageous and strong enough with faith to endure the process of discovering intimacy is very challenging. And that's even without the demonic oppression.<br /><br />I had a frank discussion with the mayor of our town this morning. I told him my views a bit. He admitted that 50% of local small businesses will probably fold if this shutdown continues.

If God had wanted us perfect, invulnerable to temptation - we would not be like we are, and the world would not be like it is. <br /><br />It's so we can learn - it keeps happening because we haven't learned yet. <br /><br />The power of repentance is infinite. Jesus came to save *sinners*. If we want what Jesus offers, and follow him - we are assured of salvation. Nobody is 'denied' salvation. <br /><br />Those who go to Hell are those who choose Hell (by whatever name) - likewise Nirvana (unconscious impersonal not human bliss), Sheol (oblivion) - and any other options.
