Pathway in the Sea

Ever see a butterfly flutter by? John 3:7-8


Psalm 77:19

Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.



"The best way to show that a stick is crooked is not to argue about it or to spend time denouncing it, but to lay a straight stick along side it."

Michael Savage is under the mistaken impression that the battle portrayed in the movie 300 was fought between the Spartans and Persian Muslims. Dr. Savage, you really MUST look before you leap, unless specifically commanded by God. At 480 B.C., the battle precedes the pandemic of Islam by more than a millenium. There were no Muslims before the unprofitable Mohammed. The nature and doom of Islam has been foretold, but the Spirit of God must naturally reject it as a foreign and demonic counterfeit. Christ is unique in history in that He had disciples before He was born.

To enumerate but a few:

1. Moses. A general example. A specific detail.

2. Abel. (You can glean the theme of Christ in Abel woven among others here.)

3. Naboth.

4. Jonah.

5. Samson. (Hebrews 11:32-40)

6. Esau.

7. David.
The Rev. Barry W. Lynn was on the Michael Medved Radio Show the other day, and I heard him say that the "Religious Right" do not understand the concept of "Separation of Church and State". He heads an organization called "Americans United for the Separation of Church and State". I don't speak for the "Religious Right", but I do understand the connotations of the phrase. I will illuminate its derogatory nature by adjusting the title of the organization he heads to its more exact and precise meaning: "Americans United for the Segregation of the Separate but Equal Church and State". I understand the concept of "Separation of Church and State" perfectly. It is the apartheid policy of the Masonic New World Order implemented by anti-Jehovah supranational globalists who, in order to maintain the ruse of plausible deniability, wrap themselves in what, to them, is the toilet paper of the U.S. Constitution, and relegate American Citizens of genuine belief in the testimony of the Holy Bible to a socially and politically and legally inferior and permanently voiceless place in the political discourse and public policy-forming processes of the United States Government. It is an explicitly EXclusive and NOT an INclusive concept. It is a judicially devised and mass-media-culturally-implemented ghetto. And it is demonstrably the antithesis of the First Amendment.
Masonic Lodges place the Koran, the Bible, and similar literature of religious origin side by side in their "temples" as a sign of equal humanistic contempt, not as a sign of equal reverence,whether they recognize and acknowledge it, or not. When George W. Bush declared his belief that Jews, Christians and Muslims pray to the same God, he was uttering a popular misconception and furnishing proof that there is one thing that he most definitely is NOT: a believer in the Biblical Lord Jesus Christ. He prefers the more pliable, plastic [as in the material property, not the petro-chemical substance] Jesus, a la "Buddy Jesus" of the movie "Dogma". I suspect that his portrayal of "conservative christianity" is a deliberately deleterious caricature calculated to advance the same antichristian agenda that generated the discriminatory policy of "separation of church and state". His administration has been one long tale of bungling ineptitude if he were interested in advancing Christianity OR Conservatism, but one stunning tale of efficiency and competence in discrediting those two pursuits while installing the apparati and policies of an ever more intrusive and totalitarian Big Brother-esque hyper-State. Stuff like the "Department of Homeland Security" and warrantless air traveller searches, for example. All the while, Bush has been a lightning rod for leftist antipathy and anti-traditional propaganda. Most of THAT is ridiculous hyperbole, but I think I'm on solid ground in my belief that people like Rosie O'Donnell are privy to the same practical and cruel joke. "Radical Christianity!!! BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!"
Yes, Mr. Lynn, I understand the concept of "Separation of Church and State" very well. It is one of many means whereby the power and wealth of the world is concentrated into the hands of the amoral and ruthless few that have taken the Devil up on the offer that our blessed and most holy King of the Jews refused. They shall also partake of the Devil's destiny, unless they repent.

Later on we'll conspire as we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we've made
Walkin' in a winter wonderland

Now there's some New World Order Christmas sentiment.

( WWW. The 23rd letter of the alphabet. Robert Anton Wilson's Illuminatus Trilogy casts some eerie light on this little stanza. Makes me laugh.)

Merry CHRISTmas.
Last night I watched "Shockwave", a new show on one of the iterations of "The History Channel". One of the events featured on the show was a tornado that struck Attica, Kansas. Storm chasers recorded the destruction of a house on video. There were people in it at the time. One of them commented that the tornado sucked all the air out as it passed, making her unable to breathe. There was a graphic aid presented that illustrated the hypothesis that the rotational motion of the tornado starts on an axis parallel to the ground and then evolves into the familiar vertical orientation of the "fully developed" twister. This is the state of the art in tornado theory, and I have seen it presented on other "storm chaser"- type documentaries. There is absolutely no evidence to give rise to this nonsense, and I'd like to know how much the babbling idiots that proposed it are paid for their efforts, because it is a waste of money.
( If you detect a note of hostility towards the "scientific" community, it is directed towards those counterfeit "scientists" who prostitute themselves for money and fame by twisting the interpretation of or suppressing the data in order to garner favor with the New World Order purveyors of the gospel of Satan, which is amoral materialistic humanism, and to rule out the very possibility that God created us, let alone that He has loved us in offering Himself for us in the Person of His Son on the cross, so that He can freely give us eternal life, thereby saving us from our sins and delivering us from the very appropriate and eminently deserved wrath to come, which God will pour out on those who refuse to be reconciled, but rather elect to remain His enemies without cause. Such "scientists" are selling intellectual fig leaves which will whither and crumble in the Presence of God in the Day of Wrath, leaving their wearers exposed to absolute, inexcusable and everlasting condemnation. My hostility is actually pretty mild in light of what is at stake. God's hostility, on the other hand, will be bound by no such limits. Blessed be His holy name, for in righteousness He does judge and make war.)
The formation of tornadoes is readily explained by observations made elsewhere in God's creation, and by coherently correlating those observations with known meteorological information about the environment in which tornadoes are formed and the testimony of the survivors of direct contact with a tornado as noted above. In short, tornadoes suck.
I support my household employed in the field of residential plumbing service. Drain cleaning is a prominent band in the spectrum of the tasks that I am called upon to perform. I have observed a lot of water going down the drain. ( Much like the money paid to the researchers that came up with the "axially horizontal tornado genesis hypothesis". I am a high school dropout and only the most casual observer of meteorological phenomena. This is a deplorable state of affairs.)
What I have observed is this: the faster that water runs down a drain, the longer the vortex will be that reaches the surface. That vortex is created when the rate of liquid passing into the drain exceeds the rate at which the surrounding liquid can flow in to replace it. This differential creates a reduction in static pressure around the opening that actually destabilizes the boundary between air and water formed at the surface by gravity, and air is drawn into the opening with the moving water. ( When a drain is really clear, there is a distinct "slurping" sound that has evoked surprised comments from many an impressed customer.) This flow of fluids is invariably organized into a uniform rotational configuration unless it is disrupted, and will stabilize to this configuration if the interference is removed. Note that air is only drawn into the opening when the boundary, the surface of the water, is close enough to restrict the flow of water, and air is required to make up the difference in pressure.
Now invert the direction of flow from down to up and replace the primary fluid medium, a body of water, with the atmosphere. The boundary will remain the surface, except that the boundary is now below, instead of above, the fluid medium. In the case of waterspouts, the correlation is obvious and inescapable. In the case of tornadoes and their diminutive cousins, "dust devils", the correlation is a bit more subtle.
Dust devils are formed by thermal convection over level geography as air is heated by the sun on hot days. Dust and debris are drawn up into the vortex formed by air rushing into the negative pressure created as heated air draws cooler air in after it as it rises. The surface of the earth forms a boundary which restricts the flow of air, thus necessitating the pressure differential. This rush of air is typically organized into a rotational configuration except when disrupted.
Tornadoes are formed below "supercells", storm systems generated by massive atmospheric instability as warm humid air violently encounters drier cooler air, seeking equilibrium. Tornadoes occur in the "Great Plains", a gigantic area of level geographical topography. As air is drawn up into a "supercell", the flow is restricted by the proximity of the surface, generating the extreme pressure differential which took our survivor's breath away. The inrushing air is typically organized into a rotating vortex, generating the high velocity winds and drawing loose debris such as cars and houses into it. As this debris rises away from the restricting surface of the earth, it encounters a progressively less intense pressure differential and is released to fall back down to earth, considerably the worse for wear.

Can I have Al Gore's Nobel Prize? Do dreams really come true, over the rainbow?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

12/2/07 Supplemental. On the formation of vortices.
The vortex is exactly what one would expect to see when a fluid medium is flowing away from a planar boundary in a perpendicular direction. The fluid at the surface of the plane must flow horizontally along the plane in converging lines toward the center and then it must change direction from horizontal to vertical to follow the direction of flow. Inertial momentum would prevent a direct right angle turn, so the converging fluid would gradually change direction, being deflected into a spiral motion and gradually changing from horizontal at the planar surface to more vertical as it moves away from the surface.
In the absence of the planar boundary, the fluid would flow in freely from all directions. It is the interaction between air flowing into thermal updrafts and the flat surface of the ground that creates tornadoes. DUH!

    On yet another "storm chaser" documentary on the National Geographic Channel, the "axially horizontal tornado genesis hypothesis" was featured much more prominently. Amusingly, scientists were perplexed by a Pampa, Texas tornado event in which the vortex formed in an otherwise stable air mass and progressed laterally at across the surface at ten miles per hour. They presented a graphic of a horizontal vortex being sucked up from the middle like an inchworm! This is a perfect example of how "scientists" become so fixated on a theory that they twist (pun intended) the interpretation of the data to conform to the theory rather than adjusting or scrapping the theory when it doesn't account for the data. (This is irrational behavior. Another term for "irrational" is "demented". Yet another colloquialism for "irrational behavior" is "stark raving lunacy". This type of behavior is much more pathological and chronic when they discuss the subject of the origin of the cosmos, and more particularly, living organisms, especially the species "homo-sapiens".)
    A woman whose home was destroyed by the Pampa event reported that very cold air rushed into the room as the force of the wind breached the structure, and she also reported that dirt and mud made her unable to breathe, but that after the twister tossed her free, the dirt and mud were cleared and she was able to breathe again. 
    This is a misinterpretation of the phenomena that she experienced. It was the negative atmospheric pressure in the vicinity of the vortex that made her unable to breathe, and not having a competent interpreter of the data to explain this to her that caused her and the "documentarians" to present this information as accurate. 
    The "cold air" is also consistent with negative pressure. Decompression of gases always produces a drop in temperature and it is the exploitation of this effect that makes refrigerators and air conditioners work. It also causes humidity in the air to appear as vapor, which effect can be observed as the vapor contrail that is left in the sky behind jet aircraft. The reason that funnel clouds appear to drop down from the cloud layer is that this effect is produced more readily at higher, cooler altitudes, and progresses down toward the ground as the decompression of the air in the vortex overcomes the ability of the progressively warmer strata of the air at lower altitudes to hold their humidity. The base of the cloud layer is the boundary below which the air temperature exceeds the dewpoint. Tornado "researchers" know that the vortex is already present at ground level even before the vortex's reduction of air temperature below the dewpoint by decompressive cooling or its disturbing of matter at the surface make it visible.

From an open e-mail to Alan Colmes. Wednesday, October 24, 2007

Mr. Colmes,

After airing a story about the possible involvement of Quarterback Michael Vick in the illegal and inhumane "sport" of dog fighting, you made a comment about "dominionists" who think that "they can do anything they want with animals". If, by "dominionists", you mean those who, informed by the revelation of God contained in the Holy Bible, believe that humankind are charged with the responsibility of being fruitful, and multiplying, replenishing the earth and subduing it, and having dominion over other species of animals, then your caricature of them is misinformed and slanderous.


Genesis 1

25And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.



First note that God said "replenish" before He said "subdue" and "have dominion". Furthermore, diligent students of the scriptures know that God instructs them to be responsible for the behavior of the animals under their authority or "dominion"...



Exodus 21

28If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.

29But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.

30If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.

31Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.

32If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.

33And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein;

34The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall be his.

35And if one man's ox hurt another's, that he die; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it; and the dead ox also they shall divide.

36Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.



...not to be cruel to the animals under their dominion...



Exodus 34

25Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.

26The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

27And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.



...as well as for the welfare of the animals under their authority or "dominion":



Proverbs 12

10A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

11He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.

12The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.

13The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.

14A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.

15The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.

16A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.

17He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.

18There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.

19The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.

20Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.

21There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.

22Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.



Now let me contrast this with THE leading "American" liberal "environmentalist", Al Gore, which is one of the darlings in the pantheon of celebrated liberals, as his recent Academy Award for the motion picture "An Inconvenient Truth" so glowingly affirms.

When he lost the presidential election in the year 2000 to George W. Bush by a narrow electoral margin, and it became apparent that the electoral votes from Florida could swing the election in his favor if he contested the results under Florida election law, his campaign organization swung into action to attempt just that. But rather than contesting the results in all Florida counties and thereby ascertaining the actual statewide totals, his campaign only contested the results in "liberal" counties, where the canvassing boards, which are comprised of appointed and elected officials, and who would oversee the recounts, would presumably be in favor of his prevailing in contesting the election results. Furthermore, the undercounted votes would more likely be for him and less likely be for Bush in predominantly liberal precincts. It is apparent from these FACTS alone that Mr. Gore and his presidential campaign were NOT interested in what the American People wanted, as expressed by their ballots, but were only interested in winning the election, and if the actual majority of citizens that voted in the election were unlawfully disenfranchised in the process, this was indisputably of NO CONCERN WHATSOEVER to Al Gore. As if this were not outrage enough, the sociopathic degenerate appeared on national television and stated that he wanted ALL THE VOTES counted and EVERY VOTE to count in blatant contempt for the intelligence and sensibilities of the national audience. But wait! There's more! It came to light that attorneys for the Gore / Lieberman Presidential Campaign filed motions in various courts to actually BLOCK the absentee ballots of U.S. Military Personnel from being counted because people in the armed forces tend to vote Republican! (Democrats say "We support our troops!" How, exactly?) And all of this was done openly, with the support and approval of the ENTIRE Democratic Party and liberals of every stripe with one remarkable exception that I know of: an Irish Catholic former U.S. Ambassador to the Vatican whose name escapes me right now.

America was founded on the idea that lawful and just government derives its power from, and rules with the consent of, the governed. The ballot is the legal instrument whereby the governed confer or withhold that consent. The electoral college was conceived to balance the electoral clout of populous states with that of less populous states in electing the President. Mr. Gore's conduct of his presidential campaign is prima facie evidence of his treasonous contempt for the rule of law and the consent of those he aspired to govern, as well as the Constitutional provisions that were enacted to assure and protect the process whereby the will of the governed was to be determined:election law. The entire Democratic Party and its political constituency supported him in this conduct. The entire judicial system failed to note its implications. The entire Republican Party is complicit in this treason by giving "aid and comfort" to the Democratic Party and failing to uphold and defend the Constitution against these, its enemies. The news and information media failed to alert the people to the danger. The Hollywood Entertainment Industry regards this person as worthy of its highest honors. The public school system spends more time and resources indoctrinating children with the politics of deviant sexuality than it does on their civic and legal rights and responsibilities, and would-be Commander-in-Chief Barak Obama advocates "age-appropriate" sex education for five-year-old children. (Here is a comprehensive, age-appropriate course in sex education for five-year-olds, Mr. Obama : "If anyone talks to you about your private parts or shows any interest in them whatsoever, tell your parents or guardians immediately, and if you are not comfortable telling them, then tell a policeman, minister or adult friend that you feel safe talking to, as soon as possible. Do you have any questions? O.K! Now go out and play." Your services as president will not be required, Mr. Obama. My question is, to whom may I report Barak Obama? The liberal socialist Democratic Party have a long history of exploiting children as a political means to an end. In fact, it's a running joke among "conservative" wagging tongues: "It's for the children!" )

"Global warming" may be an inconvenient truth, but it is a minor issue compared to the "Al-Gore-ithm" set forth herein. Your Al has been wont to gore in the past, and it has been testified, openly and publicly, to you, his non-disowners, yet you have neglected to restrain him. Instead, you laud and award him honors. I don't question your patriotism. There's no question about it, you are as devoid of it as he is. No, I don't question your patriotism.

(I heard Al Gore lecturing about the government ruling by "the informed consent of the governed", among other things, on an FM talk radio station. I suspect he's been assigned this task to cover the trail that I've exposed in this complaint. You are preaching to those you've already "gored", Al.)

Exodus 21
28If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.

29But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.

As for climate change, here's the biblical prescription for addressing such concerns:


Matthew 16
1The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.

2He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.

3And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?

4A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
