Science Wrong About the Bible Again (On Canaanites)

A Science article claims the Bible says the Canaanites were wiped out, and scientists have examined D.N.A. from the era showing that millions of people exist descended from Canaanites. They want to prove the Bible wrong- an unscientific motive that creates glee in the godless atheist left branch of scientists (maybe a majority).

Scientists often interpret scripture in a way that suits them in order to refute it. In other words they create a straw man fallacy and beat that.

In Deuteronomy God commands the Chosen people to wipe out the sinful nations- 7 of them, already occupying the land that today is known as Israel. It was made plain that the Jews weren't supposed to fraternize or merge with the Canaanites even a little bit-hence the harsh language. Reason and scripture would indicate there would be lots of survivors. The Jews just couldn’t perfectly fulfill divine commands in the case as elsewhere. In

Incidentally the 7 Canaanite cities represent 7 sins. Canaanite is said to mean ‘merchants’. I suppose one could compare that to Wall Street. I will post the passage about the order...

Deuteronomy 7King James Version (KJV)

"7 When the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;

2 And when the Lord thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them:

3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.

4 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the Lord be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.

5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.

6 For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.

7 The Lord did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people:

8 But because the Lord loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

9 Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;

10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.

11 Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them.

12 Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the Lord thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers:

13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee."

It's lucky that scientists don't actually read the Bible, or know that in Isaiah 17:9 it says that the Moabites were driven away leaving because of desolation. Moab was another problem nation adjacent to the lost Canaanite ctiy-nations (7 nations wiped out).

Even if Israel had defeated and destroyed as many Canaanites as they could during the conquest, there would still have been numerous rural Canaanite survivors that would have decided moving away is a good idea. I feel sure that God new the Jews could not accomplish genocide; not even having tracking drones to blast escaping fugitives.

Some scientists should use a little reason when addressing the Bible, and at least have a fair idea what's in it-even if not what it means, and try using a Google search before publishing in prestigious scientific journals.

Isaiah 17:9-11King James Version (KJV)

"9 In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and there shall be desolation.

10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and shalt set it with strange slips:

11 In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow."

That Chapter of U.S. History Most Don't Know

Usually I don't watch T.V. So I missed one interesting P.B.S. documentary on a form of slavery that continued after the civil war, in the south. What happened was prisons for profit were invented, and freed slaves having a hard time getting a job were often snared for vagrancy or other petty offenses and given crazy sentences on the chain gang for a sheriff or leased to mining and other corporations.

http://www.pbs.org/show/slavery-another-name/

That was a big business and continued until 1923...a little too recently. 

Humanity has always discovered ways to procure cheap or free labor. Illegal aliens are the big item now for exploiters looking to pay below legal minimum wage.

The mortality rate of the neo-slaved blacks (it was usually black labor) was nearly 50%. As someone pointed out, slave owners cared about their investment staying alive somewhat, while leased slaves provided by for-profit legal procurers might have been regarded as nearly disposable since leased workers could be replaced for free.

President Trump isn't a Team Player

Donald Trump is a lone-wold capitalist to such an extent that he is willing to publicly attack a cabinet member; A.G. Sessions, without his election would have been improbable. At a time in the campaign when much of the nation including the Harvard Business Review believed Trump was losing for all of his wild talk, Senator Sessions was one of the very few credible supporters he had.

Being a strong individual is most often a good thing, yet in criticizing Sessions as an extension of his own defense from various attackers and accusers the President has failed to discern friend from foe.

In recusing himself A.G. Sessions put himself beyond creating an impression of a conflict of interest. President Trump seems to want to attack and fire people to end the Russia problem when the only solid way is to let the Mueller investigation take its course and to let the Congress approve his new F.B.I. Director in due time, with due diligence, as if the government was working normally and no urgency existed for the President to cover up pigeon drops and sex trysts with Russian agents smeared in caviar.

Jeff Sessions has tried to stand by the President and do what is right regarding public interest in the probably specious Russia claims, yet the President seems no teamwork anywhere that he should work with and just enemies down the tube, like a bull with tunnel vision kicking against the pricks.

The really hostile media love it as the President himself pours gasoline on the flames of those seeking to politically burn him at the stake.

On Solitary Confinement

Solitary confinement is used to control the violent, to protect the vulnerable and to prevent communication amongst organized crime and revolutionaries seeking to destroy the state.

I should say that I disagree with the move against solitary confinement and the opinion that ending it would be a good thing. Having spent quite a lot of time myself in social isolation for various reasons, I highly value time alone at least when not starving or in pain from toothaches or other health issues.

One may be isolated walking down a crowded street as one is aware that so many people are rather thoughtless proles going about their lives without philosophical examination. One may discover that people are often as dehumanized as rude robots going about their commercial roles. One may feel relief in being absent from the daily hate.

Perhaps women and organized crime dislike isolation and solitude more than men with good books to read. Maybe the educated enjoy solitude more than political activists such as the lady that made the two videos.

Incarceration with human rights taken away of freedom is the great offense, and that must be done with grave concern for justice, while solitary confinement can be made, with modern technology a very positive experience for many. It is the lack of sober moderation in the configuration of solitary confinement criteria that brings it to crash or ineffectively reform prisoners. Just as in rash or extreme aircraft design that might crash a product when flown, it is not useful to end a fundamentally good idea because the delivery or activation was badly or ineffectively put together.

With the right software and hardware provided to a captive in isolation he or she might not even feel very isolated. I think the designers of Eastern State Prison were basically on the right track yet a couple of centuries pre-mature. Saturated with a wealth of carefully screened internet programs prisoners might learn a tremendous amount of their own free will. Maybe a prison-safe virtual reality headset cout let those in isloation visit Mars.

In the United States much is made by the left of the racial disparity between blacks, whites and Hispanics. Consider though that ending slavery was something like ending feudalism centuries before. Millions were thrown into a new social and property paradigm. In the United States that mass economic anomie occurred again with the end of Jim Crow laws, and black Americans had no great and general intellectual and professional institutions or structure to guide the young.

Consider also that in the past 20 years more than 90% of U.S. population growth has been non-white. The media age of white women is nearly beyond child bearing age while that of Hispanics in right in the prime. With white society aging and a minority of children being born are white, it is not unreasonable to expect that a youthful, vigorous and under-educated population including millions of immigrants with poor English language skills would have a majority of the prison population.

I suppose the question is to what extent those Americans of fairly sedentary European cultural origin historically should be concerned about the future of an emerging non-white majority that is restive, desirous of material wealth and social power, and less concerned about the well-being of the ecosphere.

Another point of interet interest is that a godless society led by leftist evolutionists, and in the future with larger number of Muslim immigrants, may not share Christian values such as were found in American white culture until recent times when the left especially waged social war upon it.


Maybe the most offensive thing about the paradigm of imprisonment is that it might be thought good to force behavioral modification of subjects rather than to provide them the tools and resources to change voluntarily. The idea is not good, yet good ideas that were premature in delivery should not be discarded arbitrarily.

Finally One Nation Will Ban Sales of New Fossil Fuel Burning Cars

Britain took the first step toward banning sales of new fossil fuel vehicles, finally leading where others fear to tread. Of course the measure won’t start until the present generation of politicians are mostly dead (in 2040). Even so right-thinking nations that honor Churchill instead of Hitler’s legacy should line up with Britain as an ally of Earth and ecospheric sustainability instead of the new Nazis building an atmospheric gas chamber for those to poor to move off-whirld and genetically re-engineered dinosaurs that vote Democrat.

If Trump Was Really Crazy (Trump vs Mayweather)

The American Psychoanalytic Association said that its members no longer need to follow the Goldwater Rule and are free to talk about Donald Trump's real or imagined mental state. It's good to know that psychiatrist can call a crazy a crazy, a spade a spade or a political foe crazy.

http://politics.blog.myajc.com/2017/07/26/psychiatric-group-okays-public-talk-of-donald-trumps-mental-state/

Donald Trump seems to be crazy in the sense that he tends to punch and counter punch verbally a lot against political and economic rivals and those he wants to subordinate coercively. It is hard to call that really crazy. Its like someone that will always punch someone that hits them, and occasionally throw a first strike. Probably the President showers and bathes several times a year and hasn't a distinctive body odur.

One might ask however, if President Trump is said to be a mental in a state, can it make any difference in comparison to the usual politics of Washington? Besides, if the President is really a member of the open air lunatic asylum of the U.S.A. known as a psych nigger plantation would it be constitutional to discriminate against the President for being crazy? The American Disabilities Act is more often observed in theory than reality, and it is hard for people with labels to find employment unless providing a mea culpa for craziness.

If the President admits he is crazy will the media quit with the Russia probes? It the American Psychiatric Association has a majority of crazy members does that controvert their finding at all? If the media is the most crazy and dopish of all the shingle scams with trickery, sophist speech and collusion, are they immune from recognition as criminally insane lunatics now and then?

The Brideswell Prisons

in 1655 the first 'house of correction, named the Brideswell, was built in London to put 'idlers, vagabonds' and sundry poor people thought to be up to no good, to forced work and incarceration. Numerous such facilities were built around England. According to one article the distinction between those 'poorhouses' and prisons was abolished in 1865.

Karl Marx, a fair social observer, commented in Das Kapital that a vast number of rural people were kicked off rural holdings to be forced into the city to work in factories of the industrial revolution. That would have increased problems of urban life, social strife and poverty obviously.

In the United States, in New York, a very famous Brideswell Prison was built by the British to incarcerate American prisoners of war with extreme and harsh conditions. The Provost Marshall of British prisoners admitted straving 2000 patriots to death and executing 275 outright for being obnoxious persons.

The Brits reopened the prison during the War of 1812 when they occupied N.Y.C.

Arron Burr fled to avoid being incarcerated in the Brideswell.

With Rose Aboard Shouldn't Irving Stay WIth Cavs a Year?

The Cavs with James, Rose and Love could make a serious run at the title with Kyrie Irving aboard too. If he wants to be well known, as Scottie Pipin was with the Bulls , or Dennis Rodman, he ought to stay with James a year and win a title.

Some may have been put off by being in Michael Jordan's shadow however the really good players were never bothered by such concerns. For them winning was everything.

If it all falls through in a year then Irving should think about getting traded to Sacramento or Memphis to be a star.

Sketching the Ancient History of Prisons

Prisons were not too rare in ancient times yet to the extent they were it was because only select classes could be imprisoned . As democracy spread the franchise of imprisonment increased too replacing former forced labor, serfdom, slavery and death as punishments for the masses from above. A modern understanding of what prisons are may distort the view of history though. One recalls the Apostle Paul's time in prison as well as John the Baptist. Prisons occupy a niche however for political systems that must treat a select class of subjects or citizens with some human rights, and not just send them into slavery or the slave galleys, salt mine until death or wherever the authorities sent them.

The Romans developed prisons and a famous one was the Mamertine Prison created by Ancus Marius in 640 a.d., and was in a sewer and dungeons beneath Rome.
In the Middle Ages numerous prisons existed where hostages and subjects were kept by the ruling class for various reasons. Famous prisons in England included the dungeons of Pontefraact Castle mentioned by Shakespeare in Richard III and Caernarfon Castle's dungeons established in the 13th century. Switzerland had the notorius Chillon Castle dungeon and of course during the 16th and 17th centuries the Bastille Prison in Paris that had been converted from a fort.
Some local gaols or jails kept prisoners for a very long time. The author John Bunyan was kept in the local Bedford town gaol for a dozen years for preaching without a license. Butyrka prison in Moscow is referenced as existing in the 1600s and probably was used to incarcerate individuals from social classes that could not be sent to forced labor camps or converted into serfs. Chateau d'If in France held religious and political prisoners from 1634 to apprx. 1899. One shouldn't overlook the Tower of London or lesser known places of captivity such as Warwick Castle.

Jeff Sessions; Considering a 2020 Run for the White House?

Jeff Sessions; A 2020 Presidential Candidate?

With President Trump trying to ditch him for having the integrity to recuse himself and for not sending Hillary to Gitmo for questioning, the question arises about Jeff Sessions future plans. Would that include a 2020 independent campaign for the White House?

With at least half of a solid ticket it is possible that a good, populist, nationalist Republican running with Sessions could win a primary against the weak President that could not end sanctions on Russia, couldn’t get Obamacare repealed, who failed to protect wolves and critical Alaska habitat, who did not get solar panels on the wall with Mexico, and who hasn’t got any sort of firm program to build a moon base for permanent human scientific research habitation and who let Kim IL develop a smörgåsbord of nuclear weapons and ICBMs to erase Washington DC in the years ahead when America needs to clear house in Congress.

Jeff Sessions with the right green candidate could change the face of American politics. It’s interesting stuff to think about. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amory_Lovins
