They Were Not Traitors

 

A typical calumny directed at Confederate soldiers is that they don’t merit commemoration because they were traitors. It is a lie for two reasons.

First, the Confederate states had no intent to overthrow the government of the United States. They seceded merely to form a government of their own. The first seven states that seceded during the winter of 1860-61 did not “make war” on the United States; they accepted it when the Washington government decided to coerce them back into the Union. The four upper-south states that remained Union-loyal until the coercion in the spring of 1861 had previously warned Washington that they regarded the coercion of any state to be unconstitutional and would fight to prevent it. Those four states provided half of the 11-state Confederacy’s white population, the chief source of her soldiers. In truth, the legal status of secession was unsettled in 1861. The Constitution neither outlawed nor authorized it. It was a remedy that geographically isolated political minorities repeatedly considered from 1789 to 1861.

Four Words – Weapon of Media Lies


Tyrants and dictators have long understood that control of public information is essential to maintain power.  Historically, news was spread by word of mouth, public oration by the town crier, or the posting of printed notices in the town square.  In our time, the speed and reach of all communication has been enormously increased by a large variety of devices that are part of the digital Internet and social media information platform. 

What has never changed, however, is the Machiavellian manipulation of words and phrases to obscure and even conceal the truth.  The purpose is not to educate, notify, or stimulate logical thought, but to restrict the thought process, limit debate, and thereby dominate the philosophy and actions of individuals and groups.  It is a deceitful process by which individual freedom is stolen by tyrants using the power of the ignorant majority.

The actress called the Black Lives Matter movement an “act of warfare at the hands of Marxist criminals, ‘woke’ white, angst uneducated #ANTIFA, who do not have the bandwidth to navigate an indoor golf course, let alone life.”

Actress Samaire Armstrong launched into an impassioned speech in a 7-minute video that saw the O.C. star hammer the “far-left mob,” call out the “Marxist criminals” and “uneducated woke white” people pushing the Black Lives Matter movement, and she declared Joe Biden and Kamala Harris “out of their minds.” Armstrong also praised police, who she said “have been thrown under the bus by spineless politicians.”

The actor of Christ's Suffering nearly died because of what he suffered only for acting,
What Jesus suffered for you, No one can act you Owe Christ repeating obedience, He obeyed until death.


During the filming of The Passion of the Christ, Jim Caviezel (starring Jesus) lost 45 pounds, struck by lightning, whipped twice accidentally, leaving a 14 inch scar, broken dislocated the shoulder and had pneumonia and hypothermia. from being hung almost naked on the cross for a few hours outside. His body was so stressed and exhausted from his role that he had to have heart surgery 2 times after production! The crucifixion took 5 weeks during the 2 month shoot.


The Passion of the Christ is the highest-grossed R-rated film of all time in America, with $ 370,8 million! Worldwide, it has collected $ 611 million. Most importantly, it has reached many souls around the world. Mel Gibson spent his own pocket paying $ 30 million for production because no film company ever took the project and Jim Caviezel was warned not to take the role of Jesus as it would ruin it your career.


Today is Jim Caviezel's birthday and he is 51 He proudly declares his faith in God amid Hollywood's atheism.


Thank God for people like him who will step out to do what sounds unhappy ", but it's God's Word and the story of his salvation. Happy birthday, Jim Caviezel! I'm looking forward to the next part of this great movie.

Growing research indicates many COVID-19 cases might not be infectious at all

Growing body of research indicates many confirmed COVID-19 cases might not  be infectious at all | Just The News

Elevated 'cycle thresholds' may be detecting virus long after it is past the point of infection. 

A growing body of research suggests that a significant number of confirmed COVID-19 infections in the U.S. — perhaps as many as 9 out of every 10 — may not be infectious at all, with much of the country's testing equipment possibly picking up mere fragments of the disease rather than full-blown infections. 

Confirmed cases of the disease have been the focal point of public health authorities and governments worldwide for many months, with countries across the globe working frantically to shore up their testing infrastructure and ensure that most citizens who want a COVID-19 test can obtain one with relative ease.

Grand Jury Reverses Self-Defense Decision, Indicts Omaha Man for Manslaughter During BLM Riot


An Omaha man who was initially determined to have acted in self-defense is now being charged by a grand jury with manslaughter along with three additional felonies.

The 16-member grand jury indicted Jake Gardner for his role in the killing of 22-year-old James Scurlock during an altercation at a Black Lives Matter protest and riot in May. Gardner has been charged with manslaughter, use of a firearm in commission of a felony, attempted first-degree assault and making terroristic threats.

Immediately following the incident, Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine announced that he would not be filing charges against Gardner. He told the media that his investigation, which included a review of surveillance footage, indicated that Gardner acted in self-defense.
