NEXTRUSH UNPLUGGED: WEEKEND VERSION DEATH OF AN ADDICT FLASHBACKS NEWS UPDATES

                 


                     (SERVICE WILL BE LIMITED WITH FINAL POSTING LATE TONIGHT)



Welcome to this weekend unplugged I come to the table with a busy day ahead of me that will limit the posting with a large gap from late morning through late evening tonight where there will be no posting.



The role of Faith in my life on my mind.    My big ego has caused me to consider myself the "Higher Power"  even as I used the name of  "The Lord" in vain in essence.    I went to the religious meetings big and small like Promise Keepers and so on.


Lots of preaching and teaching about all the wrongs in others and all the ills of the world like racism and so on but my racist experience linked to an angry mind and dare I say even lust.     I'm not sure anyone is ready for the hard cold truth but I have shared that Nazi Germany had "art" that was really "porn" as described by Howard K. Smith in his book "Last Train From Berlin".


Invariably images of women without clothes were found in the pictures of the Nazi Era in Germany (and men too).     From "art" parades to the mass murder of the Holocaust.


God has a "Top Ten" list and racism isn't on it but lust is and the pandemic of lust looms large although Dr. Fauci isn't dealing with this problem and that's not his area of endeavor.


God Bless the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. he had a batting average on racism but struck out every time when it came to his lust.


I need to stop giving God the orders and start finding ways to listen.

And I also expect any members of my family to respond with proper British vigour to any such attempt.



If there is one place where Pfeffel Johnson's nasty new petty dictatorship ought to be afraid to tread, it is in this intensely private, raw occasion, when we stare through tears over the brink of life and say our final farewells before those we love are consigned to the flames or to the good English earth...".......PETER HITCHENS BLOG
