Ireland Succumbs to Homosexual Marriage

The Irish affirmative vote to queer marriage makes one wonder why the luck of the Irish has run out? What Satanic power trained the little leprechauns to become queer? Plainly the snakes have returned to the Emerald Isle. With the evil powers of Boston possibly supporting homo power rather than the I.R.A. these days maybe the apostasy was inevitable. What failure of moral leadership, what vast public debt to evil made Ireland go queer?. The answer to Karl Mauldin's what will you do, what will you' query for those who have had their wallet stolen seems to be that San Francisco style answer-make marriage of cock-sucking bucks. With the power of queer royals near in England the sin contagion overtook the Irish. The broadcast media indicates that the new plum pudding apple-in-the-eye of global homosexual elites is Australia.

The fine heritage of Kennedy, Reagan and Tip O'Neil might have been undermined by President Obama's visit as an expert queer organizer . Barrack Obama was a community organizer before being a politician. No one knew he would become a gay community organizer when President of the decaying United States.

The New York state legislature seemed to go belly up on morality after the President's visit to the city at a critical moment before the vote in the legislature to legalize homo marriage. Maybe the Irish were another notch in the gay gun-belt of the President of the United States. In the brave new world of the atheist left such items are merely word definitions without much meaning. Homo helps concentrate wealth for the rich and enables the public to get a 360 degree panning camera angle of rich personages now and then. One wonders how far the Boston, Harvard, Linton, Kerry,Obama axis of evil diplomacy has gone in subverting traditional values below the surface. Leveraging the downtrodden little people with butch supremacy may be the administration's major foreign policy 'achievement' besides advancing a plethora of civil conflicts.

One might believe that the majority of straight Irish men voted against the measure to make marriage a dyadic relationship without having anything to do with reproduction or heritage. The Gaelic entity has voted to go overtly gay making the Emerald Isle less desirable as a tourist destination. Yet the Irish were wild folk any way, so what the heck. Maybe they got tired of the Gaelic-Gay homophone and decided to bring perversion forward to a disambiguated state.

Tacitus I believe wrote that red haired Germans had a bisexual male culture in addition to skull trophies of war adorning their humble homes (observed in Swiss archaeological excavations). Finding better succor from financial elites with ties to the lavender underground or the Clinton Foundation may be additional factors swimming like schools of Titanics below the surface more than 92% concealed from above.

Reading the 'Holy War' by John Bunyan presently it is almost unavoidable to mention the diabolic nature of the Irish vote. Maybe priestly perversions of recent decades past was a factor for popular interest in queering up marriage-if homos can just be settled down homos maybe they won't be drawn toward the single culture of the Catholic priesthood to avoid women and incidentally molest altar boys. Regardless, a priesthood of believers without a hierarchical structured clergy is a better way, less susceptible to Diabolical attacks on man's soul.

One wonders if the failure of the Celtic Christian Church to survive arrival of the Roman Catholic Church and its distant ruled professional ecclesiastical orders created an alienation of Irish culture from its past. That past was pagan before Celtic Christian arrived, yet if Celtic Christians had survived Viking predators and the professional Roman Church orders the Celtic monks with blond haired tonsures giving the appearance of halos could have forged a lasting moral bond with the Irish and given them a new moral nature instead of a repressed pagan nature yearning for liberation under the yoke of oppressive alien Papacy with child molesting clerics?

One wonders if Pope Francis' 'no moral authority present' response to a query on homosexuality that lets N.P.R. describe the pope as advancing (secular, gay) 'liberation theology' is what he really intended to image-for-others. Does losing Ireland to apostasy mean nothing to the Vatican-would an Irish Pope be able to reverse the decline and fall of the lost? Is it of no concern that the Irish of Notra Dame U. have been given another meaning for 'North Bend'.

While Christians should not be judgmental over individuals, they should know and express what sin is and isn't. A U.S. President may groan 'blow me Monica, blow me' or blow me Marlin, blow me' yet a Pope shouldn't pretend that homosexual priests getting blow jobs or molesting children is not sin and say 'who am I to judge'. It is true that the inquisition did quite a bit of judging that was wrong, it is another thing to play possum for p.r. purposes and provide aid and comfort to sin. The Vatican has been accused of indifference to the rise of the fascists and Nazi occupation of Europe, it should not be complacent about the rise of sin and the increase not of the city of God, but of the city of Diabolus.

Solution to ISIS Crisis is Iraqi Citizen Oil Owner State Equalization

When the ordinary Iraqi was aced out of getting a personal share of Iraqi oil field reserves in the form of inalienable stock ownership it permanently funded an unbalanced sectarian conflict based striving to dominate corrupt government to hand off perks and billions of dollars to oil cronie capitalism. Tha'ts the worst sort of capitalism and a silly recipe to form a government in strife-inclined Iraq. For all of the citizens to have common cause to fight for the same same they all needed to be issued equal shares of common ownership of Iraq's oil reserves in the form of shares that could not be sold for 50 years.As Iraq kept the peace and prospered from oil development and sales a better kind of realistic democratic environment could grow.

I wrote about this idea years and years ago and nothing came of it. It is easy to see that conflict will occur to dominate oil production until a kind of balance of terror is achieved. Of course in D.C. they would view the owner-state sort of democratic environment as something to avoid and obfuscate. Big oil prefers the sweetheart deals with corrupt government that primarily benefits investor elites.

Alaska Legislature to Move North of Pt. McKenzie?

With the Alaska State legislature meeting this week in Anchorage one wonders how soon a permanent move somewhere on the east side of Knik Arm a few miles from Anchorage will happen? Since only four or five people from Juneau and a few others from southeast would need to travel far while most Alaska legislatures including those riding a train from Fairbanks and the interior would find it much easier (along with the public) to participate in government the move seems inevitable.

A Knik Arm bridge has been a major project idea for a long time, along with a natural gas pipeline-so it may all come together.

I think an economic capitol could be built for 30 million dollars with very green designs. It makes sense.

Good Reasons to Reject Obama-Trade Pacific Attack on Americans

There are valid reasons for the Senate and House to reject Obama-trade. Even rational Democrats such as exist reject another permanent foreign alliance subverting sovereignty. The interests of the nation and those of capitalism sometimes coincide, occasionally conflict and when they differ in particular circumstances and government action is requested by the private sector to ossify a particular form of business action from government, the government should decide what is best for national interests rather than global capitalist’s interests.

When the U.S.A. was founded global capitalism hardly existed-the Hudson Bay Company and the East India Companies were the two basic planetary semi-corporate entities. When George Washington warned of permanent foreign alliances he had no need to foresee a time when the U.S. Government would seek to make permanent foreign alliances that would compromise on sovereignty for the benefit of global capitalists. It is as valid to say that support for the increase of power of global plutocracy in the Pacific basin while undermining American authority to regulate its own national business affairs is treason as much as a potential creator of jobs. The Obama-trade treaty is primarily intended to enrich global plutocracy as were the Obama tax cuts on the most rich. Bill and Hillary Clinton raked in 30 Million dollars in the past year from speaking fees alone and President Obama may want to cash in on the dinner for dollars, black tie circuit himself the next few decades.

There are several forms of capitalism possible. Value theories may be changed to reflect environmental capital needs that are implicitly not outsourcable-a reason why concentrated monetary capital concerns tend to oppose ecological economic values. Adam Smith was at any rate concerned about freeing up foreign trade monopoly by Royal chartered companies. That exclusivity did not allow fair trade by all citizens in accord with their own self-directed interests. Adam Smith did not argue in favor of the crown relinquishing sovereignty to foreign governments. Obama-trade is fundamentally not about the Adam Smith free-trade issue. Free trade by anyone wishing to trade is a different issue than tax rates on and regulations for anyone interested in trading. The issue of the same corporation trading between its own multi-national businesses is yet another issue.

The United States should keep its sovereignty intact and quit making permanent foreign alliances as promiscuously as it can. Instead of being a Babylon the great sort of whore of all nations the U.S.A. should be and become an ideal ecospheric conservator and innovator of ecological economics with a sober judgment about mankind’s place in nature seeking boldly to lead humanity to spiritually free, ecologically rational business and living practices within a free enterprise criterion where it has never gone before.

On a Modal Logical Need for Heaven

'Holy War' raises the issue of is the eternal presence the Lord in heaven the only way (necessary) for people with no good in them to remain free from sin for eternity? That seems logical necessary in a kind of modal logic. Here is more about the issue...

here are numerous references to life after death in heaven in the Bible-especially notable is the Revelation's chapter 2. John Bunyan's book 'Holy War' provides a modal logical glimpse of the reason why heaven may be structured as it is.

Consider that mankind is susceptible sin. Even if saved and cleansed from sin it seems that Christians may still be subject to temptation. What better way than to have the Lord live in one's presence with the Spirit of God defending the soul against sin? What better place to live than in a New Jerusalem where the heavenly city is cleansed from all diabolic traces?

The people of Mansoul realized the problem of original sin and it's tendency for eternal recurrence. With free will mankind requires on-going help-even in heaven apparently. Bunyan's allegorical account of how the city of Mansoul-created by God yet fallen to occupation of the Devil-even with the free willingness of the people of Mansoul to have the Devil as their Prince-is liberated by the Lord remains true to the Lord. 

Mansoul is I suppose representative of Jerusalem and the New Jerusalem when  the Lord physically returns to take possession. The people realize they have no virtue that can save themselves, and ask for the mercy of God (the Lord) to keep them free and in His good graces as His servants.

from pages 82-83 Holy War"They added, moreover, and prayed his Majesty to consider thereof; ‘for,’ said they, ‘if now, after all this grace bestowed upon us, thy miserable town of Mansoul, thou shouldest withdraw, thou and thy captains, from us, the town of Mansoul will die. Yea,’ said they, ‘our blessed Emmanuel, if thou shouldest depart from us now, now thou hast done so much good for us, and showed so much mercy unto us, what will follow but that our joy will be as if it had not been, and our enemies will a second time come upon us with more rage than at the first! Wherefore, we beseech thee, O thou, the desire of our eyes, and the strength and
life of our poor town, accept of this motion that now we have made unto our Lord, and come and dwell in the midst of us, and let us be thy people. Besides, Lord, we do not know but that to this day many Diabolonians may be yet lurking in the town of Mansoul, and they will betray us, when thou shalt leave us, into the hand of Diabolus again; and who knows what designs, plots, or contrivances have passed betwixt them about these things already! loath we are to fall again into his horrible hands. Wherefore, let it please thee to accept of our palace for thy place of residence, and of the houses of the best men in our town for the reception of thy soldiers and their furniture.’
Then said the Prince, ‘If I come to your town, will you suffer me further to prosecute that which is in mine heart against mine enemies and yours?-yea, will you help me in such undertakings?’

They answered, ‘We know not what we shall do; we did not think once that we should have been such traitors to Shaddai as we have proved to be. What, then, shall we say to our Lord? Let him put no trust in his saints; let the Prince dwell in our castle, and make of our
town a garrison; let him set his noble captains and his warlike soldiers over us; yea, let him conquer us with his love, and overcome us with his grace, and then surely shall he be but with us, and help us, as he was and did that morning that our pardon was read unto us. We shall comply with this our Lord, and with his ways, and fall in with his word against the mighty.

‘One word more, and thy servants have done, and in this will trouble our Lord no more. We know not the depth of the wisdom of thee, our Prince. Who could have thought, that had been ruled by his reason, that so much sweet as we do now enjoy should have come out of those bitter trials wherewith we were tried at the first! But, Lord, let light go before, and let love come after: yea, take us by the hand, and lead us by thy counsels, and let this always abide upon us, that all things shall be for the best for thy servants, and come to our Mansoul, and do as it pleaseth thee. Or, Lord, come to our Mansoul, do what thou wilt, so thou keepest us from sinning, and makest us serviceable to thy Majesty.’"

John Bunyan's exposition of the logical necessity that people live in the presence of the Lord in order to remain free from sin, and later of the joy of living in the presence of the Lord, is a remarkable piece of theological work.

Ideal Office Environment Infrastructure

There is perhaps no such thing as an ideal office workspace . If an ideal work space became an oxymoron since the fall in the garden of Eden with onerous (yet deserved) work requirements following, the need to accomplish tasks that support human life and well being have advanced over millennia while the ecosphere decayed as a bank of practico-inert raw material transformed with high entropy into product. An ideal work space increases human and ecospheric health so far as possible, or at least conserves it, simultaneously.

Work in a private or public setting has variables with data that when associated with function is best accomplished with configurations to serve the function. Adaptive office space configuration produced with adaptive materials able to reconfigure as quickly as possible in response to worker requirements will become an increasing direction for design.

Office space area delineators have been cubicles and screens with data imaging equipment and keyboard data entry being separate elements. In the future office video imaging displays will be the office workspace partitions themselves. Display content will be anything the worker, designer and system manager order from a view of all the office to the beaches of El Salvador.

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=11452039 1 mm thick video display tech-tech will continue to advance form

Four wall imaging displays will have transformative imaging content yet the displays themselves will be able to morph shape and form rising or decreasing height and substance. Four partitions could change y to  round or rhomboid etc,. A number of materials might exist that quickly change shape and that even take on a bullet-stopping hardness.

The ideal office of the future will be that best adapted for supporting and increasing worker health, well-being and productivity.

Governing mass social entropy quota balances and allotments could be integrated in local area networks and cubicle image display parameters to enable conformity to socially  reduce the increase of material entropy into private and public business criteria. A more intelligent office space would advance social intelligence effort harmonizing macro-social ecological economic effort infrastructure.

Physiology monitors of employees will analyze physical health and stress levels unobtrusively and determine if any health deficiency could be rectified with a change in workload and work performance settings and content in the adaptive spatial configuration. With adaptive technology ubiquitous and increasingly available over time the workspace configuration will attempt to interface with the ideal worker health and performance environment allowing positive environment for creativity and production.

High-speed quantitative traders on Wall Street exploiting any little chink in the social financial armor to take a quick and dirty profit are be best contemporary example for what every office expert system of computational intelligence will run as a background monitor for the office work-potential in the future ideal office environment. Today a few corporate entities exploit the raw material of society, business and nature as a practico-inert substance to profit from. In the future ideal office all citizens and business activity will be cognizant of the unified ecospheric field and exploit it only minimally within boundaries set by rational government.

Society is a material war over for the increase of entropy and maintenance of human health. Realistically rational social and ecosphere relations conserving human and ecospheric health will arise within the ubiquitous ideal office environment of tomorrow. In the ideal office work space real-time expert systems guidance will consider three criteria for manufactures.

1) Most efficient low-entropy added to raw materials

2) Highest number of people that can be employed empirically while competing in a low-entropy economy (owner profit in the low-entropy environment from skimming a small percentage from the worker compensation package)

a) The citizen worker-force well being coincides with the most efficient use of the ecosphere criterion. A maximum low-entropy economy seeks the highest creativity and productivity status of citizens possible

3) Print on demand 3D printing manufacturing can output anywhere on Earth that buyers have interest. Planetary low-entropy economy criterion transcends free-trade paradigm of 18th century.

Apartheid in Indian Country

Political correctness virtually governs organizational inertia in government. South African apartheid was generally held to be wrong and a hindrance to western assertions of democracy as superior to crass dictatorship of a proletariat. It would be inconvenient to say truthfully that American Indian Reservations are held to be a beneficial form of apartheid. Apartheid in some cases cannot be good and in others bad without complicating political correctness labeling.

There is something attractive to liberals in working to treat American Indians as a separate race that deserves different political treatment than ordinary citizens. Though no living American Indians were born earlier than the 20th century, they are still regarded as first peoples because of inherited racial endowment. On that genetic basis different laws and land set asides are made. It is true that some treaties to grant land to Indians in return for peace were made, yet most were not given the right to vote whatsoever as individuals in American politics. In order for Indians to qualify for a different legal status they actually needed to be different. In wasn’t discrimination to deny Indians equal legal rights if they were not equal and were instead separate.

Dividing and conquering in detail enemies of the concentration of wealth might be accomplished through numerous means in the U.S.A. today. Americans have no history of throwing off a vast class of royal aristocrats that were vampires by and large except for the brief, successful revolution by a minority. In Europe huge famines killing millions under royal rule happened numerous times in the 17th century. The Dutch lost two and founded New Amsterdam. The Russians lost 3-4 million some time later. Protracted bloody revolutions happened-they new what it was to get rid of the predatory scum at the top. Now Americans don’t take any of that seriously and put themselves into pink and lavender cute designer chains. The civil war was fought to keep white people free of aristocracy that was threatening to return through the southern aristocrats and their Brit friends (not referring to Bill Clinton or Tits Up). Abe Lincoln made the biggest mass hanging in U.S. history, of American Indians, waging insurrection during the war (reluctantly). Republicans took democracy seriously.

In many Indian rights and Indian sovereignty issues today that would have Indians join federal advisory boards to mismanage Yukon River king salmon equally with incompetent non-Indian mismanagers or give Indians the ancestral right to open gambling casinos or hootchie kootchie clubs nothing is said about restoring the Indian historical right to be ineligible to vote or get non-Indian specialized federal benefits as was historically the case.

A word about restoring the Pacific King Salmon fishery to health with a simple five-step method-here’s how;

1) No taking of fish in international waters

2) Fish must be caught within 12 miles of continental shore

3) Six consecutive no-fishing years every 20 years

4) Total maximum allowable annual catch is 50% of all fish overall

5) Sports, subsistence and commercial fisherpersons would each be given one-third of the 50% harvest of all available fish.

It is understandable that Indians prefer to have apartheid and eat the federal cake too, perhaps sharing the Federal Reserve’s cash printing extravaganza along with resident aliens that would like to retire by the millions on social security benefits in Mexico, China, India, Pakistan and wherever (sometimes in order to fund terrorist missions to America).

In order for justice to prevail and to keep the meaning of apartheid’s politically correct labeling alive as American Indians increase the strength of their sovereign apartheid they should give up their properties of rights citizens of a dubiously United States proportionately. That is to the degree that American Indians claim sovereign apartheid they should relinquish American citizenship.

The fair and balanced way of Indian apartheid might best be founded on population density for Indians such that they have land population density equal to that of 1776 in areas they actually resided in rather than journeyed across to hunt or go for war parties. I am not unsympathetic about the state of Indian apartheid in the U.S.A. My only descendant has American Indian ancestors. The ethnic purity of American Indians was not a bad thing; being separated from cultural contamination of the Old World did let those people have 30,000 years of comparative Independence, yet slavery and genocide were as common in America then as it was in savage European and Asian cultures until, hmmm, a few years ago?

Savage civilizations of primitive peoples phased out in Europe during the 20^th century (only joking), it phased out with the rise of the first Mesopotamian civilizations and entered the new phase of civilized violence and state terrorism. American Indians ran a few thousand years behind Eurasian-Mesopotamian and North African cultures of course, and most of the area that is the U.S.A. outside of Cohokia circa 1000-1300 a.d. never developed civilization at all. That also was favorably comparable to much of Europe that did not develop state tyranny everywhere until perhaps 1000 a.d.

Advanced civilizations kill their environment better than savages. American Indians exterminated many species including wooly mammoths and saber tooth tigers yet today 1/6^th of land mammals are facing extinction. I think that is a conservative miunderestimation. More likely there will be no larger mammals alive outside zoos except for people in a century. Washington State’s politicians have preponderantly killed Puget Sound and Hood Canal for fish and mammal life and made the region look like a pro anti-environmentalism advertisement. Maybe they could be relocated to Baltimore and Chesapeake Bay to fix that. Yet I am more generous than most in that respect.

Next week I may examine how the problems of Baltimore were caused by a failure to allow in enough illegal aliens to bring a new and improved work and invention ethic to Maryland. Mexican illegal alien advocates generally demand an end to whites-only apartheid of Del Norte caused by border law enforcement. The peaceful Delaware tribe pacified the eastern shore of Maryland long ago (with extirpation of local dissidents) and a peaceful Mexican labor occupation of Baltimore can probably do same to labor. Ought not a Frosted Flakes size box of Cracker Jack be provided to rioters by FEMA whenever civil disturbances occur in the future? Civil rights for the many are as important as those lost for the individual.

Ukrainian (Rus) Soldiers Captured in Ukraine; Show Trial Ahead?

The government of the Ukraine (means borderlands of Southwestern Rus) will put on display two soldiers captured in combat they say are Russian. Rus soldiers in the traditional southwestern Rus borderland (means Ukraine) region isn't too remarkable-especially of they grew up in the Ukraine or their ancestors did. To be a true borderlander (Ukrainian) for the official government may mean anyone not with Rus genetic components, or that speak Russian, or that aren't properly vassals of global plutonomy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_of_Ukraine

http://news.yahoo.com/russians-troops-captured-ukraine-way-capital-082511144.html

If Ukrainian Russians actually trained in the Russian army woulod that disqualify them from fighting for their homeland? A Super Chess Grandmaster named Sergei Karjakin is a Ukrainian by birth who opted to play for the Russian side. He lives in Russia-does that mean if he returned to fight for the Ukrainian chess championship against Vassily Ivanchuck he would be disqualified as a Russian?

The United States has trained numerous foreign nationals in the United States at the War College of Americasto fight elsewhere-does that make them Americans? 
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Army_War_College

The United States trains Syrian rebels/terrorists to battle against a lawful government; http://www.cnn.com/2015/01/16/us/syria-rebel-training/  -should they be regarded as Americans if captured in Syria?

Maybe Ivanchuck and Karjakin each are Russian as well as Ukrainian and Karjakin only lost his borderlandness for living elsewhere. I think that is the point about the ethnic-political-economic battles in the third millenium; there are often deeper global new world order strategies behind them the broadcast media tend to support without saying so amidst their raving.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plutonomy

The trouble with bad government and bad foreign policy isn't as much in the details so much as it is just failing to go the right direction with right policy and the opportunity cost that compiles in areas such as ecological economics and rational response to global warming.

The problem with utilitarianism and economic utilitarianism are generally in the fact that the values are made subjectively. Utilitarian can be the greatest good for the rich as well as the greatest good for the poor. The ethical terms are simply variables rather than constants. Truth theories are used as variables too often given values to reinforce the prevailing ethical theory of value being politically prosecuted.

Swarms of Cheap Drones Could Change War and Peace

Terrorists seeking to blow up critical infrastructure such as under the ice arctic oil wellheads or drug smugglers flying heroin into the U.S. A.will have a wealth of new drone tools ahead one easily foresees. Attackers of the White House could fly a half pound of composition five on a raptor sized drone aircraft, drone torpedoes able to infiltrate defended shoreline and clouds of drones with smart chips able to recognize hostile troop formations and fire a single bullet or fly near with a silent electric, solar powered engine to detonate will transform the concept of security generally. The amazing thing about all that is that commercial enterprise and oppressive governments alike are welcoming development of the little flying or submersible buggers with limited artificial intelligent self-piloting chips whole heartedly.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/05/17/us_military_invents_micro_drones/

With very cheap drone aircraft made-in-China in the definite realm of possibilities one wonders how a billion little flying kamikaze warriors buzzing around battlefields would interact with human soldiers, marines and so forth? American engineers developing these products for sale-I saw one flying above the highway recently with hovering capability flown like a radio-controlled airplane formerly was-are unintentionally altering the historical human approach to military conflict. It is challenging to say of that is a good or bad thing.

Potential China-U.S. Naval Battle Over Spratly Islands Could Benefit Ecosphere Conservation

The gross Chinese destruction of healthy reef habitat to build up land and claims to sovereignty over the the Spratly islands-a no man's land if there ever was highlights the idiotic use of power to grab real estate. to a certain extent there wasn't even enough land for marines, of any side, to land on. The first good typhon might drown whatever is built up there. Marine life can find the place a paradise though. It is mankind that stupidly destroys sea life in innumerable ways from acidic ocean content increase to over-fishing and habitat destruction. Building up land, blasting sub-sea surface elements for foundations and so forth while putting out copious diesel fuel exhaust is really stupid.

Obviously naval battles of scale are difficult to film these decades. The last great naval surface battles the U.S. navy played a major part in were during the second world war. One U.S. destroyer escort captain made a suicidal run at a Japanese cruiser as part of an engagement off Alaska.  Captain Dan Evans was awarded the medal of honor though his body was never found. Probably a great cruise missile conflagration and complete destruction of anything built up or located in the Spratly islands would be good television viewing yet it would be expensive and polluting.

Is it possible the place could be made a marine sanctuary to let fish recover health there a little before venturing outside? Potential warring sides could instead defend the marine sanctuary.
