“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
This go around for a new Supreme Court justice is getting a lot of attention…and ridicule. After Tuesday’s “I can’t decide on who is a woman” from a woman, even Tucker got into it.
The fact she didn’t answer “how do you define woman” with “I am woman, I am fearless, I am sexy, I’m divine,” is a big letdown tbh

One of the obstacles to full understanding of just what the enemy is all about revolves around the concept of symbolism.
Once upon a time, when a liberal couple I know were really friendly before they found out I was a conservative – okay, we’re still friends – we went to see a college production of Shakespeare’s Othello. Shakespeare’s symbolism is a completely different topic, but one of the characters is a prostitute, and the girl playing her walked on stage in a bright red dress. Hence:
Red is an extreme color. It is a symbol of power, passionate love, passion, adventure, and energy; but can also symbolize anger, seduction, violence, and danger.
In this case, red is the color of passion, and that is utilized in many ways throughout western civilization.

23But this command I gave them, `Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’ 24But they did not obey or incline their ear, but walked in their own counsels and the stubbornness of their evil hearts, and went backward and not forward. 25From the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have persistently sent all my servants the prophets to them, day after day; 26yet they did not listen to me, or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck. They did worse than their fathers. 27“So you shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. You shall call to them, but they will not answer you. 28And you shall say to them, `This is the nation that did not obey the voice of the LORD their God, and did not accept discipline; truth has perished; it is cut off from their lips.

Today we explore just how far back the symbolism goes. It goes back A LONG WAY.
Gail brought up the topic of Alice in Wonderland being symbolic. I went searching and found this:
https://youtu.be/vTJ0Emfo0Wg
There are some errors in the narration. Lewis Carroll was NOT Jack the Ripper, and Baphomet is the demon of human sacrifice, but otherwise it’s interesting – if really disturbing – stuff.
And…as far as symbols go:
The Christians also saw hares in this symbolic light and associated them with death and resurrection. Thus, many early Christian gravestones include depictions of hares.
Many churches, illuminated manuscripts and breastplates throughout Europe, especially in Germany and England, depict three hares in a circle. The three ears one sees make a triangle in the center, symbolizing the Holy Trinity: “Drei Hasen und der Ohren drei und doch hat Keiner mehr als Zwei” which means “Three hares and three ears and yet none [hare] has more than two [ears].”

1Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 2but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3He is like a tree planted by streams of water, that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. 4The wicked are not so, but are like chaff which the wind drives away. 6for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
That followed an announcement from Maria Vladimirovna Zakharova, Director of the Information and Press Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation:
“There was a statement made by the Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, leave no doubt, will not give Washington to be silent this time. Their attempts, while spilling blood, to find biological and chemical weapons throughout the world. We have found your own products. We have found your biological material. As it turns out it was all happening in Ukraine,” Russia state-affiliated media reported.
Oopsie.

After two years of having my personal life utterly f***ed with, and toyed with by the Dems – they can kiss the fattest part of my natural born white a$$ expecting “unity”.
FOR TWO YEARS;
You kept us in masks.
You kept us indoors.
You masked our children, and gave them PTSD that will take a life time to erase.
You kept us separated.
You forced an experimental drug on society.
You forced that drug while taking people’s livelihoods away because they chose not to take it.
You fired Doctors, Nurses, Firefighters, Police, and EMTs because of their choice. Less than a year after hailing them as heroes.
You used this sham to steal an election.
You stole that election in an attempt to usher in World Wide Totalitarianism.
You’ve been the direct cause of death, disease, famine, and families losing everything.
You stood idly by while your BLM and Antifa lackeys ravaged American cities.
You pushed for defunding police.
You gaslit an entire nation, and the World into division, hatred, and chaos.
You’ve used your mockingbird media to brainwash the innocent.
You fight for the right to murder babies.
You fight for the right to force a child to have sexual reassignment surgery.
You project, lie, manipulate and twist every single soul on this planet.
You’ve pushed God out, and welcomed Satan.
You’ve committed high treason.
You diddle kids.
You cover for pedophiles.
You call us racist.
You call us domestic terrorists.
You ran a false flag on January 6th, thus leading to horrible treatment of folks who simply walked around inside the Capitol.
You’ve allowed Big Pharma to dictate how healthy someone can be.
You cancelled the Cleveland Indians, Washington Redskins, Uncle Ben, and Aunt Jemima.
You tear down statues.
You burn books.
You censor free speech.
I’m sure I could keep going, but Imma go ahead and wrap this up.
Listen to me. Very carefully. Yes, [you]. We will not forget. We will not forgive. We will not unite with you. Period.
You will soon discover the sleeping giant you have awakened. Will we get violent? NOPE. Nor do we need to. We will continue doing as we have done for the past 4.5 years. And that is kicking you square in the dick over and over with truth, information, and memes.
Freedom loving humans the world over are sick of the bullshit, and if you think for one second ANY of us are gonna just let this shit slide, you better wake the fuck up and get some Wheaties in ya because we ain’t going away.
Our resolve has only strengthened. Our anger is Righteous, and God blankets us with His love, guidance, safety, and protection. Most importantly; What we have, you lack – We have truth, we have resolve, we have love, and we have GOD.
At Ash Wednesday Mass yesterday, I saw a t-shirt that said, “Women’s rights begin in the womb.” I wonder how sleepy, creepy Joe would square that one.
I think all the fake-news, photos, videos, from Ukraine that we're being inundated with is deliberately obvious. They know that thanks to social media, people will quickly find out and spread the word. Same thing they did with covid. Confusion and distraction = control.

____________________________________
One of the obstacles to full understanding of just what the enemy is all about revolves around the concept of symbolism.
However, this is a symbol that the other side does not seem to use other than to send a message.
The liturgical use of ashes originates in the Old Testament times. Ashes symbolized mourning, mortality, and penance. For instance, in the Book of Esther, Mordecai put on sackcloth and ashes when he heard of the decree of King Ahasuerus (or Xerxes, 485-464 BC) of Persia to kill all of the Jewish people in the Persian Empire (Est 4:1). Job (whose story was written between seventh and fifth centuries BC) repented in sackcloth and ashes (Jb 42:6). Prophesying the Babylonian captivity of Jerusalem, Daniel (c. 550 BC) wrote, “I turned to the Lord God, pleading in earnest prayer, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes” (Dn 9:3). In the 5th century BC, after Jonah’s preaching of conversion and repentance, the town of Ninevah proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth, and the king covered himself with sackcloth and sat in the ashes (Jon 3:5-6). These Old Testament examples evidence both a recognized practice of using ashes and a common understanding of their symbolism.
Jesus Himself also made reference to ashes: Referring to towns that refused to repent of sin although they had witnessed the miracles and heard the good news, our Lord said, “If the miracles worked in you had taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they would have reformed in sackcloth and ashes long ago” (Mt 11:21).
The early Church continued the usage of ashes for the same symbolic reasons. In his book, De Poenitentia, Tertullian (c. 160-220) prescribed that the penitent must “live without joy in the roughness of sackcloth and the squalor of ashes.” Eusebius (260-340), the famous early Church historian, recounted in his The History of the Church how an apostate named Natalis came to Pope Zephyrinus clothed in sackcloth and ashes begging forgiveness. Also during this time, for those who were required to do public penance, the priest sprinkled ashes on the head of the person leaving confession.
More information on ashes and their use in Christianity can be found at the link above.

LUKE 9:22-25
22saying, “The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.” 23And he said to all, “If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. 24For whoever would save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake, he will save it. 25For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?

1Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. 2Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. 3Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure for the last days. 4Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. 5You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. 6You have condemned, you have killed the righteous man; he does not resist you.
PSALMS 49:14-20
13This is the fate of those who have foolish confidence, the end of those who are pleased with their portion. [Selah] 14Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol; Death shall be their shepherd; straight to the grave they descend, and their form shall waste away; Sheol shall be their home. 15But God will ransom my soul from the power of Sheol, for he will receive me. [Selah] 16Be not afraid when one becomes rich, when the glory of his house increases. 17For when he dies he will carry nothing away; his glory will not go down after him. 18Though, while he lives, he counts himself happy, and though a man gets praise when he does well for himself, 19he will go to the generation of his fathers, who will never more see the light.
MARK 9:41-50
41For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you bear the name of Christ, will by no means lose his reward. 42“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung round his neck and he were thrown into the sea. 43And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire. 45And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell. 47And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, 48where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched. 49For every one will be salted with fire. 50Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its saltness, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”
President Trump spoke with Glenn Beck and commented on the latest Durham findings:
“This is sort of an amazing thing that’s happening with Durham, cause a lot of people had given up… He seems to be going forward at a level that nobody ever thought was possible.
I mean what he’s revealing, if you really look at it and study it & read what he wrote, this looks like it’s just a foundation. This is the beginning. They’re building a building and this is just a foundation on which a lot of big things are going to be revealed.
Look I have very little doubt that the upper levels of government – meaning the top level, specifically and the Vice[President] level, if he were to understand it. I have very little doubt that they knew it was happening. Very little doubt.”
Why is Durham important? It’s not that other things aren’t, but this is the dam that when it breaks, the swamp comes into full view.
According to Durham, Joffe and his associates manipulated that data to make it seem like Trump, and those in Trump’s world, had suspicious interactions with internet protocol (IP) addresses affiliated with a Russian mobile phone provider. They then combined those allegations with the Alfa Bank hoax materials (the subject of Sussmann’s Fall 2016 meeting with then-FBI General Counsel James Baker).
This damaging information, purporting to demonstrate at least circumstantial evidence of Trump/Russia collusion, was presented on February 9, 2017 to what Durham describes as U.S. Government “Agency-2.”
That agency was the CIA. We know for sure that Sussmann met with the CIA General Counsel. We learned in January 2022 that, if Sussmann is to be believed, there were two other CIA employees at that meeting.
In other words, a Clinton supporting contractor (Joffe) obtained sensitive information (perhaps unlawfully) about the Office of the President of the United States (Trump), manipulated the information, passed it to a DNC/Clinton lawyer (Sussmann), who then delivered it to the CIA.
All on American soil.
This is important because the CIA is generally prohibited from conducting domestic operations.
Please, don’t write this off as being a distraction. It’s the bearing wall that’s holding up the [DS]. It gets demolished, and the house of cards comes tumbling down.
And then on Tuesday evening late, one of our own brought testimony as presented by Gateway Pundit about Hitlery in STL in 2016 from Ann Dorn, the widow of a man killed in the 2020 riots.
I was the supervisor assigned to the hotel she [Hillary] was staying at… Everything was enclosed. Walkways within the hotel were enclosed with tarps. And that Scooby van that everybody calls, we were talking about it and there were secret service agents there and they were talking like, ‘Oh yeah, they have it specially made for her. It’s curb height because she can’t step up or down. They want it right at the curb so she can walk right in to it.’
[During a walkthrough a week or so before the event with the Secret Service, Police and hotel staff] We were walking around and where she was going to practice her debate was at the other end of the hotel in a conference room… It’s like a whole block away…The Secret Service agents looked at us and said, ‘she can’t do this… She can’t walk and they’re arguing with each other, she can’t walk.’ [They said we’ll have to get a wheelchair but then said they couldn’t do that because people would see her in it.]
The day that she arrived, we’re at the hotel waiting. Everybody knows there’s always a motorcade with Secret Service involved. Highways get shut down for everybody. All the sudden the motorcade stops . Nobody knows why. I’m in the communications center and there’s some bickering on the radio because you can hear Secret Service talking and they’re bickering back and forth. I’m not thinking much about it. So they get there. And of course, when they get there the hotel shuts down completely… Wherever you are you’re locked down completely and you can’t leave because Hillary doesn’t want to see you…Nobody is supposed to see her. She doesn’t want to look at anybody.
[In the Comms Center where Ann was at, two Secret Service guys were arguing] ‘Why wasn’t the medical bag in the van. Why was it in car number whatever?’
The area in question being quite familiar to this writer says that the hotel was either the Ritz in Clayton or the Chase Park Plaza in the Central West End less than a football field away from Mark McCloskey’s house. (Seriously, this is my old stomping grounds in multiple decades.) Either one, she was one sick woman even then.
XVII’s three year delta coming up talks about Bill and Hillary’s “public” health taking a turn for the worse. Be ready for drama on that score.
About the public’s faith in medicine….
I tested positive for COVID January 18&19. (two home kits, one PCR test) Had blood drawn for antibody test on Feb 8. Result: negative for IgG antibodies.
Something seems off.
FWIW: I had a positive antibody test July 2020 (titer 960), negative Nov 2020 and negative Jan 12, 2022
The comments on that one are worth a gander. People are waking up.
And Russell Brand.
Memes in no particular order.
Celery definitely counts as a green vegetable.
My mom and I one time bought an auction basket named “Margaritaville.” Five gallons of the stuff in a washtub. Talk about the local way to the max. (It’s not a true STL party without an iced down washtub full of stuff to drink. Usually Budweiser, but people around here will drink anything.)

Please review our HOST and site owner’s Guidelines for posting and discussion for this site. Wolf is kind enough to put up with *most* of us and our antics after thorough vetting. Violators of the baiting and deliberately attempting to divide the group rules WILL face consequences.
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Company manners are appreciated. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog out discussions best saved for a wrestling mat. If, for some reason, this site is not available, head over to the UTree and visit the post at the top of the list or the closest rescue thread.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.
THAT MEANS THAT ALL OF US HERE ARE ENTITLED TO OUR OPINIONS AND PREJUDICES, ETC., SO LONG AS THEY CAUSE NO PHYSICAL HARM TO OTHERS OR DOXX OUR FELLOW TREE DWELLERS.
All opinions here are valued for the diversity they bring to the issues, and the shaping of understanding regarding topics for which many of us do not have all information. Correcting the record on any one topic is appreciated.
Be careful in expressing thoughts as we would all like to think well of the rest of the group, and ill-thought out comments have a way of wrecking that for everyone.

Auntie DePat’s requests as we are all supposedly adults and don’t just play them on TV like the body doubles pretending to be the squatter in chief:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

1My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. 2For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in, 3and you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, “Have a seat here, please,” while you say to the poor man, “Stand there,” or, “Sit at my feet,” 4have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts? 5Listen, my beloved brethren. Has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him? 6But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you, is it not they who drag you into court? 7Is it not they who blaspheme that honorable name which was invoked over you? 8If you really fulfil the royal law, according to the scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well. 9But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
Dear Brothers and Sisters Canadian truck drivers, The global coup that in these two years of psycho-pandemic farce has been carried out by the globalist elite appears most clearly if we do not limit ourselves to considering what happened in individual Nations, but broaden our gaze to what has happened everywhere.
Your protest, dear Canadian truck driver friends, joins a worldwide chorus that wants to oppose the establishment of the New World Order on the rubble of nation states, through the Great Reset desired by the World Economic Forum and by the United Nations under the name of Agenda 2030. And we know that many heads of government have participated in Klaus Schwab’s School for Young Leaders – the so-called Global Leaders for Tomorrow – beginning with Justin Trudeau and Emmanuel Macron, Jacinta Ardern and Boris Johnson, and before that Angela Merkel, Nicolas Sarkozy and Tony Blair.
It would seem that Canada is – along with Australia, Italy, Austria and France – one of the nations most infiltrated by the globalists. And in this infernal project we must not only consider the psycho-pandemic farce, but also the attack on traditions and Christian identity – indeed, more precisely the Catholic identity – of these countries.
You understood this instinctively, and your yearning for freedom was shown in all its coordinated harmony, moving towards the capital Ottawa. Dear truck drivers, you are facing great difficulties, not only because you give up your work to demonstrate, but also because of the adverse weather conditions, long nights in the cold, and attempts to be cleared away that you face. But along with these difficulties you have also experienced the closeness of many of your fellow citizens, who like you have understood the looming threat and want to support you in protesting against the regime. Allow me also to express to you my support and my spiritual closeness, to which I join the prayer that your event may be crowned with success and may also extend to other countries.
In these days we see the masks of tyrants from all over the world fall, and unfortunately we also see so much conformism, so much fearfulness, so much cowardice in people who up until yesterday we regarded as friends, even among our family members. Yet, precisely because of this extreme situation, we discover with amazement gestures of humanity made by strangers, signs of solidarity and brotherhood on the part of those who feel close to us in the common battle. We discover so much generosity and so much desire to shake us from this stupor. We discover that we are no longer willing to passively suffer the destruction of our world imposed by a cabal of unscrupulous criminals, thirsty for power and money.
In this relentless attack on the traditional world, not only your way of life and your identity have been affected, but also your possessions, your activities, and your work. This is the Great Reset, this is the future promised by slogans like Build Back Better, this is the future of billions of people being controlled in their every move, in all their transactions, in every purchase, every bureaucratic practice, every activity. Automatons without souls or wills, deprived of their identity, reduced to having a universal income that allows them to survive, to buy only what others have already decided to put up for sale, transformed by a gene serum into people who are chronically ill.
Today more than ever it is essential that you realize that it is no longer possible to passively assist: it is necessary to take a position, to fight for freedom, to demand respect for natural freedoms. But even more, dear Canadian brothers, it is necessary to understand that this dystopia serves to establish the dictatorship of the New World Order and totally erase every trace of Our Lord Jesus Christ from society, from history, and from the traditions of peoples.
Demonstrate for your rights, Canadian friends: but may these rights not be limited to a simple claim to the freedom to enter supermarkets or not to be vaccinated: may it also be a proud and courageous claim to your sacrosanct right to be free men. But your demonstration should be one of true freedom, reminding you that it is the Truth – that is, Our Lord Jesus Christ – who alone can guarantee you freedom: the truth will make you free.
Let us pray that Christ will return to reign in society, in your hearts and in your families. Take up the spiritual weapon of the Holy Rosary, and pray to the Blessed Virgin, Sainte Ann, Saint George and the Holy Canadian Martyrs to protect your homeland. I would like to conclude my appeal by asking you to pray with me, with the words that Our Lord has taught us: may they be the seal of this awakening, of this national liberation. Let us all pray it together, out loud, so that our prayer may rise to Heaven, but also so that it may resound powerfully in these squares, in these streets, all the way to the palaces of the powerful:
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Carlo Maria Viganò, Archbishop
The message, yes, is important, but so is the exposure to the reality of human existence at this time in history in His Excellency’s words. Knowledge is spreading.

Today is a Feast day, so there were double the readings to choose from. This is not in order at all. The first one is from the Mass of the day, the other two from the Feast of St. Scholastica readings.
1 KINGS 11:4-13
4For when Solomon was old his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not wholly true to the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father. 5For Solomon went after Ash’toreth the goddess of the Sido’nians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites. 6So Solomon did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, and did not wholly follow the LORD, as David his father had done. 7Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Molech the abomination of the Ammonites, on the mountain east of Jerusalem. 8And so he did for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods. 9And the LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart had turned away from the LORD, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice, 10and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he did not keep what the LORD commanded. 11Therefore the LORD said to Solomon, “Since this has been your mind and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes which I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you and will give it to your servant. 12Yet for the sake of David your father I will not do it in your days, but I will tear it out of the hand of your son. 13However I will not tear away all the kingdom; but I will give one tribe to your son, for the sake of David my servant and for the sake of Jerusalem which I have chosen.”
Canticle of Canticles 8: 6-7
[6] Put me as a seal upon thy heart, as a seal upon thy arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy as hard as hell, the lamps thereof are fire and flames. [7] Many waters cannot quench charity, neither can the floods drown it: if a man should give all the substance of his house for love, he shall despise it as nothing.
There are several settings of this passage, and for some reason this one sticks out. The composer, Rene Clausen, is an American.
LUKE 10:38-42
38Now as they went on their way, he entered a village; and a woman named Martha received him into her house. 39And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to his teaching. 40But Martha was distracted with much serving; and she went to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” 41But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things; 42one thing is needful. Mary has chosen the good portion, which shall not be taken away from her.”

I think a link was posted late last week to Archbishop Vigano’s latest letter, but thanks to a TheseTruths comment, here it is. Please remember, that there is a difference between the Institutional Church (which is currently called “the deep church”) and the Faith as laid down by Christ and then articulated by the Church Founders and Fathers as the oral traditions not included in what was determined to be Scripture later were written down before the Canon was actually closed. The feckless hierarchy is called out.
Monarch Butterfly: Butterfly whose migration pattern is passed down to offspring genetically. Scientists learned that information can be passed down genetically in people too. For instance, people who have a history of sexual abuse in their family are highly susceptible to hypnosis and mind control. So Monarch butterfly is symbolic for mind control. Also Project Monarch was a 1950’s CIA funded government program where unsuspecting US Citizens were subjected to psychological experiments using psychotropic drugs, electroshock, and other forms of torture to disassociate the mind in order to create programmable alters.

7And he called to him the twelve, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. 8He charged them to take nothing for their journey except a staff; no bread, no bag, no money in their belts; 9but to wear sandals and not put on two tunics. 10And he said to them, “Where you enter a house, stay there until you leave the place. 11And if any place will not receive you and they refuse to hear you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet for a testimony against them.” 12So they went out and preached that men should repent. 13And they cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many that were sick and healed them.

The national disease related non-profits are all pretty corporate, and aren’t so much about really finding cures as they are about raising money. Trust me. I used to work for one.
And look what popped into my feed. My guess is there was a ghost writer involved.

Fire
Fire is one of those symbols that’s been around from very ancient times. One website lays out a number of places fire is seen in history, other than in Christianity where it is actually important.
At the Easter Vigil, the very first thing that happens is the blessing of the Pascal Candle and the fire. The congregation walks into Church to the chant of “Christ our light” responding “Thanks be to God.”
The secret societies that we oppose on the other hand, use the eternal flame as a symbol, which makes the grave of one President John F. Kennedy the ultimate troll since he went up against the cabal.

21And he said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed, and not on a stand? 22For there is nothing hid, except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret, except to come to light. 23If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.” 24And he said to them, “Take heed what you hear; the measure you give will be the measure you get, and still more will be given you. 25For to him who has will more be given; and from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.”

Okay, I admit it. Back in the day, I had larger than life posters of these guys on my wall.

186As they were coming home, when David returned from slaying the Philistine, the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with timbrels, with songs of joy, and with instruments of music. 7And the women sang to one another as they made merry, “Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.” 8And Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him; he said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed thousands; and what more can he have but the kingdom?” 9And Saul eyed David from that day on. 191And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul’s son, delighted much in David. 2And Jonathan told David, “Saul my father seeks to kill you; therefore take heed to yourself in the morning, stay in a secret place and hide yourself; 3and I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak to my father about you; and if I learn anything I will tell you.” 4And Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father, and said to him, “Let not the king sin against his servant David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his deeds have been of good service to you; 5for he took his life in his hand and he slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great victory for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced; why then will you sin against innocent blood by killing David without cause?” 6And Saul hearkened to the voice of Jonathan; Saul swore, “As the LORD lives, he shall not be put to death.” 7And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all these things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as before.
