Sitka Sound Commercial Fisherman Hogging Salmon

The ability of technological decimation of Alaska salmon fisheries is plain. Even before the rise of high-tech electronic fish finders the salmon population had crashed a few times from over-fishing with traps. As it is today sports and subsistence fishermen, fisherwomen and fishertransgenders get far too little of the catch left over after the commercial deep-pockets fleet has taken the lion's share, and that just isn't fair.

King salmon stocks are severely strained from over-fishing and invasive species such as Northern Pike brought to Alaska from Minnesota that aggressively killed young salmon in Alaskan rivers. Scientists have stocked salmon ocean migrations with technology and discovered that they go as far north as the Bering Sea in search of cooler waters. It is expensive for subsistence and sports fishermen to travel far in the state to catch some food to eat, while commercial fishermen with cheap gas move themselves and their nets about to cull the health and population out of the beaten-down King salmon. Even the lowly chum salmon is kicked about by commercial fishermen that leave as little as possible for anyone else.

Subsistence fishing should have 25% of the possible catch of all fish and sports fishing 25%. No more than 50% of the fish in the sea should go to concentrated power and wealth commercial fishing interests. Even though subsistence and commercial fishing may allow greater escapement of fish to spawn and rebuild the population since they are not trying to scrape the bottom of the barrel for the benefit of the rich; that is subsistence and sports-fishermen may be content with getting what they need and let natural abundance continue, the commercial fishing fleet are another sort of egoist dollar sign led horde lusting after the last morsel of fish in the sea for-themselves.

If commercial fishermen are restricted to 50% of the harvest the extra escapement should increase the total of fish overall paradoxically increasing the number of fish that even the commercial fishermen catch. If the take allotment of commercial fishermen were reduced more the increase of harvest should be even greater. That is a supply-side fishinomics policy beyond the simplistic 'kill the fish eating ducks' way of hogging the catch as far as possible.

Genesis of Dispensational Theology (video)

Dispensationalism is one of the more recent Christian theological ways of viewing the meaning of scripture. It seems to have been added to the theological library by a Jesuit named Lacunza. The motive for the new way of looking at things may have been stimulated by the counter-reformation Council of Trent.

Dispensationalism is relevant today because it is another of the wrong directions that pre-tribulationist evangelical take in forming a worldview with the likelihood of near-term conclusive apocalyptic, eschatological doom soon ahead. That wrong interpretation of scripture affects U.S. politics significantly in environmental and ecological economic policy biased toward non-sustainability.

Darwinian Dangers for Intelligent Design of A.I. Robot Brains

Development of Artificial Intelligence with Darwinian characteristics present opportunities for apologetics and thought about cosmology. Artificial intelligence that designs and evolves itself would comprise a significant danger to all organic life. One of the first characteristics of any species in Darwinian contexts is to reproduce prolifficly and monopolize an ecosystem taking market dominance in modern terms. Eliminating rivals is inherent.

Consider that humans are far better predators than wolves. Wolves cannot lie or dissimulate as people can. he ability of artificial intelligence to convincingly lie would perhaps exceed that of D.C. politicians.

Contemporary apologetics should be aware of not just arguments within a theological context, it must comprehend the critical prevailing intellectual environment of the day that dominates contemporary thought including that of the media. It is of course neo-Darwinian and worships blind random chance such as makes Wall Street and government grow. It is necessary to know contemporary cosmology to understand why the conversation placing Christianity within a tiny little historical box of error in the minds of the materialists.

A large part of the problem arises from the demonstrably wrong cosmology held by people of the past including many Christians. Authority doesn't like to be wrong, and it also likes to be unreflective and dogmatic in order to expedite bureaucratic power and revenue streams for-itself. That is a basic human social characteristic infused with original sin.

Darwinian evolution is not evolution by design. Wild random chance, mutation, copious conflict, democide and the will to eat rivals are characteristic of Darwinism. The lost and atheists should be careful what they wish for or prefer.

It is unfortunate for intellectual competence in the field of pseudo-science that dismissive atheists advocating theological nihilism have little understanding of theology. I have published a free e-book named 'Creation and Cosmos; The Literal Values of Genesis' that explains some of my thoughts on the topic. God created this and every possible Universe; yek the particular sentient beings within them may run toward being suffused with personal egoism and the myopia that entails.

There was an article published at Google plus on the effort to develop artificial intelligence with the nature of evolution in it. It is worth reading to learn some of the way people believe things are. Pure random chance arising from a void (vacuum energy) is thought to have coalesced without help from God to evolve a Universe. I believe that God may have used evolution to build a Universe-yet that exceeds the parameters of the above-mentioned article.

Intra-Christian debate about how to correctly interpret Genesis is different from the context of what the pure materialists think about the Universe. It is necessary to have a good idea of contemporary cosmology in order to dialogue with that public. Most of that public wouldn't think that Christians could consider multi-verse theory, and yet it can be inferred that God could create an infinite number of Universe with his omnipotent and omniscient nature. People considering natural philosophy only tend to consistently underestimate the power of God.

Will U.S. Supreme Court Terminate the Natural Truth of Marriage?

In an era of planetary over-population will the U.S. Supreme Court vote to end the natural truth of heterosexual marriage in order to obfuscate social history and convert social reality into a mode appropriate for an egressing era of Corporate Imperialism?

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-05/from-goldman-to-google-companies-back-gay-marriage-in-supreme-court-brief

Though there are innumerable ways two adults might encumber themselves legal with contracts the homosexual movement has set their target on expropriating marriage for themselves redistributing all of the benefits designed by legislators to support heterosexual reproduction and child rearing. Business ironically supports the idea of redistribution of legal privileges though is generally in opposition to the redistribution of wealth (because the benefits here are in the public sector).

In order to have a society where homosexuals might legally approach male youth as if they were girls and with legal dope create a more stoned and stupid society more jellyfish-like for purposes of Corporate power and population reduction the Court may choose to outlaw heterosexual marriage among the 50 states.

Erasing social tradition and history; forcing new vinegar into old wine skins, homosexual marriages and divorces will debase the social currency of marriage and the meaning of marriage. It will become a term that describes a temporary dyadic bonding relationship rather than a union of genes and a synthetic recombination in progeny. That is a defeat of a very important political right of individuals against large imperial, corporate or government powers. Terminating the meaning of marriage-the historical facts of heterosexual marriage categorically violates the privacy of marriage and family. It erases that sacred personal bonding and replaces it with cheap social legal dyads with no necessary relationship to potential for reproduction. The era of transjennered proles under imperial power like stoned sardines in the U.S. public can is the sorry evolution the ill-informed of D.C. and Boston lust after.

Hot Onomatopoeic Decimation of Decency in Obama/Nixoncare

Bureaucratic solutions to material issues may be dangerous to your health. Because the Obama administration with a Congressional majority for six years accomplished just three things-advancing queer marriage to subvert natural social health, permanent tax cuts for the rich, and forcing through the adaptive Nixon corporate health care plan (aka Obamacare) the nation’s economic situation became enswamped in the shadows of lender cornices of potential economic avalanches. The middle class has sought a way to pass the buck of health care costs to someone else.

Though summer 2015 may bring a couple of months with 300,000 minimum wage jobs created, that could be be like a false spring before the cascade of financial avalanche. An avalanche made of skyscraper of cards, foreign investments, public debt, concentrated wealth and environmental disaster. When the whip comes down from economic natural law the poor will lose health and dental care first while the middle class sympathizes with Hollywood smiles if at all.

When the Obama administration forced through national health care and tax cuts for the rich without balancing the Federal it was necessary to pay for the new program with increased federal debt and Treasury Department chicanery. Annual interest on public debt is approaching a trillion dollars.

The U.S. Federal Reserve was already buying up bad debt from the Federal Government that the administration got from big banks with bad derivatives and investing debt. Printing free loans to the Banks the banks could loan out 400% of those Federal gifts and buy up toxic home mortgages and stocks indirectly. Passing the buck results in two fundamental principles-the poor get comparatively poorer and government compiles more debt.

In Alaska- a state with fewer than a million people and a high average income, about 10 billion is spent each year on health care. With a state government revenue deficit of 3 billion dollars because of the drop in oil price per barrel Obamacare costs and the insurance mandate are creating problems. Like many middle class Americans that want a federal health cost subsidy greater than the cost of food stamps annually by several hundred percent Alaskans will seek to pass on the cost for health care to the Federal dent account so far as possible. Immediately though, cutting health care expenses for prisoners, the homeless and the poor would be prioritized because they have little political power. To cut health care costs for the incarcerated is the moral equivalent of torture-although without major organ failure it can’t be torture according to established U.S. Government policy (maybe nations that cane prisoners should just water-board them because that’s not torture?).

Very high quality health care is very expensive. Much of the health care that the poor, homeless and prisoners require is not. It would have been easy to expand the national V.A. hospital system to network with homeless clinics and the poor people’s clinics to provide services to the poor without involving the middle class at all and thus negate Obama-Nixon care.

It should also be possible to create a national clinic franchise co-op that provides a limited range of medical services to members that pay an annual membership fee with zero deductible. Private franchise treatment centers would provide the most common medical services required to members, and instead of buying normal medical service or skipping it altogether because of irregular or inadequate employment youth and the middle class would have a reasonably secure alternative to too expensive insurance. Youth should not be required to pay for Obamacare through buying insurance they don’t need to subsidize the middle class...even if those would be illegal alien youth made residents that could be taxed with Obamacare payments to corporate insurers.

President Obama innovated direct tax payments by citizens to private corporations with Obamacare yet did not fix the basic health cost issue; the increase in medical technology requires a physical rather than a bureaucratic remedy. A nation of paper pushers or keyboard data entryists tends to find paper or shuffling abstract dollar solutions instead of physical solutions to political challenges. If Nigers and Nigerians are morphological lexemes for black and blacks equiv to blanc and blancians for White and Whitians. It is easier for Federal bureaucrats to make the use of the word niger in the U.S.A. hate speech than to create full employment for black and white youth or explain why Niger is pronounced with a French accent these days yet not Nigeria.

When will the Mexican word 'Moo-hair' be added to the Federal lexicon of hate words with a crazed antonym of hate in transliteral, onomatopoeic reassignment? Plainly multilingualism enables hate speech for people of various languages using babelgabel words from others with homophones. Jap and Brit are terms of derision for enemies of antipathetic people when used hatefully in war or in presence of opfor political correctness minders. How long can it go on?

No one ever called the po-lease to complain about a cat meowing or about being attacked by a couple of cats or they would think he/she or it were a pussy. Likewise if a wild mule is serving to chase the wildcats out of the hen-house why slave it with a harness to the plow? How hateful can it be to expropriate medical services from physicians and nurses though they make more pay than ordinary Americans and make them slaves of corporations that would enslave Americans to buy insurance from-em?

Pre-Trib Lemma of Misunderstanding the Kingdom of God/Jesus Christ

 Pre-tribs with the expectation of doom politically and environmentally doen't work for a better society enough. Jesus was successful at establishing the kingdom of God within his generation however. One expects God to be successful at accomplishing his purpose-to grow a majoritarian Christian society over time saving as many humans as possible, and I believe that was his purpose (although He must be amused at any human efforts to understand things teleologically speaking.

Pre-Tribuation means pre-chaos,pre- catastrophe,pre-oppression,pre-persecution,pre-doom generally. Of course a rapture spices up the stew of doom.

A lemma in morphology is the headword of a lexime- with the same root in various forms. Pre-tribulationism is the headword of a cascade of end times expectations that are in error except as people can make them so by neglecting to work on positive ventures and hope for the worst.

What I mean about God being successful is more of a theological point about the omnipotence of God-that is God cannot be anything besides successful than in association with particular historical demographics. Reading Watson's 'Divinity' presently points about grace and humility are well-taken. One should have humility in learning about eschatological insights that a majority have not. People were preponderantly in error about end-times opinions in regard to a tribulation for most of history since the third century A.D. 

Matthew 16:28 refers I think to the establishment of the kingdom of God-like Microsoft's rise after getting Gary Kildall's software-like an ion engine it can be a slow build and like the stock market have fluxes in numbers. Pre-tribs should not be regarded as being successful though wrong unless one wants to say that simply being Christian contributes to Christian evangelization and life generally even though a particular eschatological viewpoint is in error. Watson writes about providence and grace, and providence of God is provided for everyone good and bad,saved or not. The way God constructs history with pre-deterministic elements is a deep topic; issues for the Divine Tech Department rather than anything I might write here presently.

Saving Federal Expenses

When Senator McConnell and President Obama host official dinners in the future they should apply standard austerity guidelines and cater food from McDonald's limiting choices to the robust double cheeseburger from the dollar menu. That excellent foodstuff could be supplemented with ranch dressing flavored potato chips that make an acceptable salad substitute when garnished with ketchup. beverage selection would be liberal with a choice of tap-water with or without an ice cube.

Federal motorcade should be with a custom fleet of American built electric vehicles. For security the task force could be surrounded with a cloud of invisible solar and fuel-cell powered stealth drones with lasers and guided missile able to swiftly dispatch political opponents reaching so far into their bag-o-tricks as to perpetrate terrorist attacks.

Five days a month all Federal office buildings should be open just half a day. A free sack lunch would be provided to employees as they leave so adequate compensation for lost time is achieved.

A Personal Library Recommendation- 'Body of Divinity'

Thomas Watson's 'Divinity' is a beautiful text for systematic theology. I think Watson's method does more and less than conform to; "Systematic theology focuses on a particular doctrine and demonstrates it from the text". Watson's expository writing uses copious Biblical citations, yet it isn't to propound a particular doctrine. Instead his purpose is simply to illuminate the gospel and the meaning of scripture Old and New Testaments. One could write a paper on Watson's Systematic Theology, yet it is a systematic theology a posteriori rather than by design or intention. I don't think that Watson intended too much to write a systematic theology at all. The hundreds of sermons on the Bible and what can be known/inferred of God just compiled as a sum-over-history of the main points of what may be an implicit theology of the Bible...if Theologian A writes his best theological abstract of the Bible, and theologian B and C...Z write their's, isn't there still an inherent Biblical theology that can be found and that all of the theologians are trying to encapsulate? Perhaps that would be comparable to dozens of dialects and accents of one language.

Watson's book was written about 400 years ago. It has a few physics concepts that are obsolete, yet that will happen to most of the physics ideas held now eventually. The word of God remains the same however.

Alaska Legislature Flares Gas Again

How many decades has the legislature flared gas on building a gas pipeline in order to channel pork to consultant friends or get kickbacks from the oiled? This most recent flare up appears more of the same. The difference is that with gas prices dropping due to fracking and plentiful national supply the credibility of building a pipeline through Canada is non-existent. The best policy would be for the state to withdraw from the Alaska-Exxon LNG Canadian Jobs Bill directly.

Careful analysis of a chess game situation indicates the correct way to respond to a challenge from the opponent. Building a gas pipeline with state of Alaska economic leadership requires careful economic analysis. Building a pipeline in Alaska is requisite for any state participation for a number of strong reasons. For one any pipeline in Canada places the Alaska product at the mercy of the Queen's minions-are Alaskan politicians so tame as to want to be subjects to a foreign power and pay for it themselves?

http://juneauempire.com/state/2015-03-03/limits-proposed-gas-line-group-alternate-project

For state politicians to let Exxon and big oil make them a cat's paw with promises so far that the state provides subsidies is awesomely stupid. Consider empirical economic facts concerning Alaska and China as the probable long-term export market with its world-leading contribution to global warming from greenhouse gases-mainly coal fired power plants that may be replaced quicker with natural gas plants until hydrogen fuel cells, solar, wind and fusion power sources arrive along with superconductors and additional new technology. The state legislature should just focus on getting an in-state pipeline from the slope to Cook Inlet built within three years.

Though the state cannot get anything done in three years-its a nice political dream.
