During the election, Jefferson refused to discuss his religious beliefs, leading many people to believe he didn’t have any. This prompted the Reverend John M. Mason to claim that anyone who voted for Jefferson “would do more to destroy the gospel of Jesus than a whole fraternity of infidels.” When Jefferson was elected, some believers hid their Bibles so they wouldn’t be seized by the “the satanic Jefferson.” Actually, Jefferson was religious and did attend church (Episcopal), though he didn’t believe in the divinity of Christ. “To the genuine precepts of Jesus Himself,” he wrote, “I am a Christian in the only sense in which He wished any one would be; sincerely attached to His doctrines in preference to all others; ascribing to Him every human excellence and believing He never claimed any other.” History 101, pg 255
Say nothing of my religion. It is known to my God and myself alone. Its evidence before the world is to be sought in my life; if that has been honest and dutiful to society, the religion which has regulated it cannot be a bad one.
-- Thomas Jefferson.
And today, 42 presidents later:
Sir Donald Trump got 81 percent of the male white Christian vote.
Why?
Well, just as Trump has been accepted by the wealthy 1% because of his tax-cuts for the wealthy, Trump is loved by the church because he has begun to deliver on his promise to repeal the Johnson Amendment Act which regulates political speech from the pulpit, which, once removed will be the death of the Separation of the Church and State guidelines Jefferson and the other founders fought so hard to have put in our constitution.
The fact that Trump is not a member of any church, doesn't matter.
The fact that Trump surrounds himself with mobsters, looks up to despots like Putin, and has said on a live tape that he makes advances on woman without their approval...
He's no Jefferson.
______________________________________________________ And, today boys-and-girls we are going to look at two great Americans from
long ago and see what they had to say about this great country we call America. Only
to the white man was nature a “wilderness” and only to him was the land
“infested” with “wild” animals and “savage” people. To us it was
tame. Earth was bountiful and we were surrounded with the blessings of
the Great Mystery. Not until the hairy man from the east came and with
brutal frenzy heaped injustices upon us and the families that we loved
was it “wild” for us. When the very animals of the forest began fleeing
form his approach, then it was that for us the “Wild West” began. —Chief Luther Standing Bear (1868-1939), Oglala Sioux

“God
has not been preparing the English speaking and Teutonic peoples for a
thousand years for nothing….He has given us the spirit of progress to
overwhelm the forces of reaction throughout the earth. He has made us
adept in government that we may administer government among savage and
senile peoples….And of all our race He has marked the American people as
His chosen nation to finally lead in the redemption of the world.” —Senator Albert J. Beveridge, 1900

Now the choice is up to you to decide who was right, the Native American or Racist Politician.
Cannabis was first cultivated around 4000 B.C. in China. Since then, it has been a popular source of fiber. Everything from rope to clothes has been made from it. Even the original drafts of the Declaration of Independence were on hemp paper. But it has also been popular for its medicinal and intoxicating properties. Queen Victoria used it to relieve her period pains, and from 1842 to 1900, nearly half of all the medicine sold in America contained marijuana. Cannabis was introduced to the New World by the Spaniards prior to 1545. The settlers in Jamestown brought it to Virginia in 1611. It was found to be so useful that in 1762, Virginia awarded bounties to farmers who grew hemp and to manufacturers who converted it into various products. Not stopping there, Virginia also penalized those who didn’t produce it. Just three years after Virginia was handing out its bounties, George Washington was growing cannabis at Mount Vernon, as can be seen by two entries he made in his diary. For the dates May 12-13, 1765, he wrote, “Sowed Hemp at Muddy hole by Swamp.” And then on August 7, 1765, he wrote, “—began to seperate (sic) the Male from the Female Hemp at Do—rather too late.”
Recreational use of the drug reached America before 1856, for in that year a series of articles written by Fitz Hugh Ludlow about his marijuana-eating experiences were published in Putnam’s Magazine and then as a book titled The Hasheesh Eater. Ludlow was a sixteen-year-old in Poughkeepsie, New York, when he began experimenting with various drugs at the local pharmacy, including chloroform, opiates, and stimulants. By 1883, hashish houses were established among the opium dens in New Orleans, New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, and Chicago. The following year, hashish candy was being sold in Baltimore. The other of our country wasn’t the only president interested in marijuana—Thomas Jefferson also grew it. And then, of course, there was President Bill Clinton. Since he claims he tried marijuana without inhaling, it might be assumed that he ate some Alice B. Toklas brownies. But either way, he definitely knew of the drug’s intoxicating properties. History 101; pg 210
This day (August the 13th) marks the first day of the runic halfmonth of As, the ash tree. The As rune is sacred to the divinities of Asgard and represents stability with the divine force in the world. The world ash, Yaggdrasil, a symbol of continuity in times of change and chaos.
There are people living among us who can see the world of angels as clearly as they can see the rocks and stones and trees that the rest of us see. These people have many names, some of them rude, but for now, we will call them mystics. Sometimes they live and work within organized religion, but more often they live apart. They tend to be solitary, perhaps lonely figures. Zephaniah Eddy was working on the farm one day when he saw his two sons playing with feral children he had never seen before. When he went after these strange children, they seemed to vanish in mid-air. The old man hauled the brothers over to the barn and beat them with a rawhide whip; he had long worried about a history of witchcraft in his wife's family and now wanted to do everything he could to stamp it out.
But as the boys grew older weird things continued to happen -- slates, tables and inkwells flying around the house, strange pounding noises and disembodied voices. Spirits appeared, including a creature with white fur that the boys said sniffed at their faces when they were in bed, they grew larger until it turned into a luminous cloud with a human shape.
Zephaniah grew increasingly alarmed and when the boys fell into trances he would sometimes beat them, even pour boiling water on them or singe them with burning coals -- anything to try to make them snap out of it. The Eddy brothers left home as soon as they could, but then they were stoned, stabbed, manacled, tortured and even shot at by angry mobs, and they returned home, to the small, basic farm in Vermont, when their father died. They remained scarred, sullen, suspicious of the world, but news that the farm was infested with spirits began to spread.
Olcott
Henry Steel Olcott was a successful attorney. He had been a colonel in the Union army, where he had been responsible for investigating fraud and corruption in arsenals and military shipyards. He was also a prominent Freemason and one of a panel of three men charged with investigating the assassination of Lincoln. In 1874 he was sent to investigate events at the Eddy's farm and he traveled there, accompanied by an artist called Kappas, whose illustrations he would use in a remarkable book, People from the Other World.
On his first day he attended a séance led by the Eddys at a local cave, Honto's cave. Beforehand he investigated the location to make sure there were no hidden entrances or passageways. When the séance started, he was amazed to see a gigantic Native American emerge from the cave. Then another appeared, silhouetted on the top of the cave, then a squaw. Afterwards Olcott could find no trace of footprints.
He was hooked. He stayed for two and a half months, recording some 400 spiritual manifestations. During his stay he virtually took the farmhouse apart, plank by plank, to prove to himself that he wasn't being duped by trapdoors or other contrivances.
Blavatsky
A few weeks after Olcott's arrival, another visitor came to the farmhouse. This was Madame de Blavatsky, an eccentric Russian traveler with a well-developed interest in esoteric teachings and a magnetic personality. When she attended séances, some of the beings manifested by Eddy brothers began to speak and write in Russian. New spirits manifested themselves before Olcott and the rest of the company, some of whom Madame Blavatsky claimed to have met earlier on her travels, including a Kurdish warrior and the leader of a band of jugglers form North Africa.
Olcott tried to make sense of the exercises of power he was witnessing and to discern universal principles underlying them:
What is this insensible something that envelops us like an inner atmosphere, and saturates all whom we meet? What subtle power made the mere touch of an Apostle's robe efficacious to cure disease, and the laying on of a royal hand effect the same result? What human lightning darting from Napoleon's eye converted every soldier into a hero as it fell upon him? What potent spell lurked in the presence of Florence Nightingale, and made the wounded men at Scutari better, if they could barely kiss her shadow as it flitted across their beds?
In 1875 Blavatsky and Olcott co-founded the Theosophical Society, with the aim of promoting a universal brotherhood, regardless of race or creed, based on a free-thinking study of world religions. In 1887 Madame Blavatsky published Isis Unveiled, a vast compendium of Rosicrucian lore. She outlined a theology intended to make sense of the explosion of spiritual activity in the second half of the nineteenth century, much of it under the umbrella of Mystic Spiritualism.
President Abraham Lincoln was America’s first non-Christian president. Not only did he reject Christianity, he once wrote a booklet title Infidelity, by which he meant a lack of faith in God. William Herndon, Lincoln’s close friend and biographer, wrote that when Lincoln “read his manuscript to Samuel Hill, his employer said to Lincoln: ‘Lincoln, let me see your manuscript.’ Lincoln handed it to him. Hill ran it in a tin-plate stove, and so the book went up in flames. Lincoln in that production attempted to show that the Bible was false: first on the grounds of reason, and, second, because it was self-contradictory; that Jesus was not the son of God any more than any man.” Later, as President, considerable pressure was placed on him to mention God in his speeches. This he increasingly did—but he never mentioned Jesus.
Others have done this, pretended to not be offended by the National Lie that keeps us all on our knees begging for more. I for one, Obi-Wan Kenobi, look forward to the first president who comes clean with us on his/hers religious belief and we can finally put the lie to rest.
Of course, telling the American people the truth has never been popular. Presidential campaign lying in the United States dates to the
earliest days of the republic. When John Adams squared off against
Thomas Jefferson in 1800, they waged a slander war by proxy: Adams’ men
condemned Jefferson as an atheist (he wasn’t) and Jefferson’s side
blasted Adams as a monarchist (he wasn’t). This was only the culmination
of a simmering battle in which both sides tested the boundaries of the
truth. After a note from Jefferson appeared in print assailing
“political heresies” (widely understood to refer to Adams), Jefferson
disingenuously professed that he didn’t have his rival in mind. Adams,
for his part, disavowed having written a series of published letters
lambasting Jefferson, neglecting to add that his son, John Quincy, had
written them with his father’s blessing.
There have been candidates who told the truth. For one, the socialist candidate in 1920 said only truthful things: "If you go to the city of Washington, you will find that almost all of
those corporation lawyers and cowardly politicians, members of congress,
and mis-representatives of the masses claim, in glowing terms, that
they have risen from the ranks to places of eminence and distinction. I
am very glad that I cannot make that claim for myself. I would be
ashamed to admit that I had risen from the ranks. When I rise it will be
with the ranks, and not from the ranks."
“I am opposing a social order in which it is possible for one man who
does absolutely nothing that is useful to amass a fortune of hundreds of
millions of dollars, while millions of men and women who work all the
days of their lives secure barely enough for a wretched existence.”
A centuries-old festival known as Gharnta Karna Day takes place on this date in the ancient kingdom of Napal in the Himalayan Mountains. The festival celebrates the death of Gharnta Karna, a horrible bloodthirsty Hindu demon who haunts the crossroads and is the sworn enemy of the venerated creator god Vishnu. Look for something to happen today from the current incarnation of Karna, that is, Donald Karna. An evil spirit is an evil spirit, come one, I'm only judging the man by his words and actions.
Every national church or religion has established itself by pretending some special mission from God, communicated to certain individuals. The Jews have their Moses; the Christians their Jesus Christ, their apostates and saints; and the Turks their Mohamed, as if the was to God were not open to every man alike. Each of these churches show certain books, which they call revelation, or the Word of God. The Jews say that their Word of God was given by God to Moses; fact to face; the Christians say that their Word of God came by divine inspiration; and the Turks say that their Word of God (the Koran) was brought by an angel from heaven. Each of those churches accuses the other of unbelief; and for my own part, I disbelieve them all. Who was the masked-man who wrote these words? You guessed, the writer who gave us most of the writings for our revolution against England: Thomas Paine. That’s right, the America that surrounded Paine at the time, the America on the verge of revolution, was far less hospitable to secularists than it is today. This makes total sense too since religion was designed to keep people from protesting, from thinking for themselves, from taking responsibility for their actions, and if the church of the day would have had its way, there would have been no American Revolution. Fortunately, England’s blind-faith was so apparent to the revolutionists, that they refused to follow any church. Now, they were not atheist, they were deist: they knew there was a higher power, just not anything any of the churches were pushing.
Funny, but it is still this way today, but somehow, the Churches and their mindless followers are still holding on to their myths, which in this deist’s mind, is holding us back from becoming a world with no religion. Notice, I said, No Religion, not, No God. Relax. When we all come together giving up our gods, we will come together as one. I realize, from the writings I receive, that Christians are the most unhappiest about this peaceful thought. I guess this is because they own most of the world’s resources and so have the most to lose. The other faiths are the same though, and so no one is willing to give up his/hers gods in fear the others won’t, and both know how easy it is to kill for a god. Killing for ones god is as old as the pains of childbirth. The Pagans did it, the Jews did it, the Christians, Muslims, Taoist, etc..
So, you see the problem, no one is willing to disarm. Maybe no one knows how? It’s easy: Clear your mind, meditate on love. Notice the similarities in others as opposed to the differences. And finally, Impeach Donald Trump.
It’s that simple (chuckle, I really don’t want Trump impeached, I just don't want him anywhere near kids). Ciao All Dr. TV Boogie _________________________________________________________________________________

Let’s go back in time boys and girls, way back, back to the last time Trumps spirit might have appeared on our planet. The time was around 534 years BCE in Ancient Rome when King Tarquin’s misuse of power brought down the monarchy system and gave Rome its first Republic. You see, King Tarquin already had a reputation of unsavory character when he seized the throne by murdering his predecessor, King Servius Tullius. As new ruler, King Tarquin, “on day one,” arrested a number of patricians on phony charges so he could take their wealthy estates for himself. This greediness alienated many in the country, but until his son, Sextus, raped the wife of the noted patriot Lucius Tarquinius Collatinus, no one did anything about it. However, much as with President Trumps son’s recent admission of dealing with Russians for personal gain has finally gotten even the most stubborn of Republicans to wake up and take note, King Tarquin’s son crime was the proverbial last straw in Rome and Lucius Junius Brutus, the patriot of the day along with other leading nobleman, locked Tarquin and his disturbed children out of the city and dissolved the kingship.
First King Tarquin Now Trump
The Roman fathers then proceeded to create a completely new kind of government, one based on the wishes and votes of the common citizen.
Their Sleazy Sons
So, what’s it mean to you and me, today? Well, for one, there is hope in the caos and madness the Trump Family has bestowed on our once proud country, and two, the future is certainly bright once we have a modern day Brutus stand up to the madness. It has happened before. Historically speaking, we are in good hands.
Feeling horny today? You should be, on August 8th in Rome each year, the people celebrated the Eve of the Festival of Venus with songs, poetry, libations, and passionate lovemaking. The goddess of love and beauty was invoked and honored with prayers. It was also a time when sorceresses performed love magic and divinations were done for romance and marriage.
In case you forgot:
The Roman Venus
The Roman goddess Venus.
The goddess Venus was the Roman equivalent of the Greek Aphrodite,
and was the essence of natural beauty. She was associated with most all
things girly, especially when it came to love and romance. She was even
considered the protector of chastity for young women, despite her
reputation for having many love affairs. You probably wouldn't expect
powerful male rulers to find a goddess who is busy dealing with lovesick
girls to be of much importance. But she was. And they did.
You
see, in 217 BCE, as the Second Punic War was raging between Carthage and
Rome, an oracle predicted that Rome could win, but only if they
convinced Venus of Eryx to grant them her allegiance. They promised to
build a temple in her honor if she would agree to help them. Apparently,
she accepted--the Romans did win, and they eventually fulfilled their
promise by building the temple in the middle of Rome.
Genealogy
also made Venus important to many Roman rulers. In Greek and Roman
mythology, one of her love interests was the mortal prince Anchises.
From one of their romps came their son Aeneas. He would go on to
lead the survivors of Troy into Italy, guided by the celestial light of
Venus. As the Roman poet Virgil tells it, the heirs of Aeneas were the
founders of Rome. They claimed direct descent from the goddess, which
gave them quite a divine status. Among the members of this prestigious
family were Julius Caesar and his nephew and adopted son, Augustus. A Virgil Love Poem:
All these souls, after they have passed away a thousand years, are
summoned by the divine ones in great array, to the lethean river. . .In
this way they become forgetful of the former earthlife, and re-visit the
vaulted realms of the world, willing to return again into living
bodies.
And can there be any greater evil than discord and distraction and plurality where unity ought to reign? or any greater good than the bond of unity? There cannot. And there is unity where there is community of pleasures and pains — where all the citizens are glad or sorry on the same occasions? No doubt. Yes; and where there is no common but only private feeling, that disorganizes a state — when you have one-half of the world triumphing and the other sorrowing at the same events happening to the city and the citizens? Certainly. Such differences commonly originate in a disagreement about the terms ‘min’ and ‘his’? Exactly. And is not that the best ordered state in which the greatest number of persons apply the terms ‘mine’ and ‘not mine’ in the same way to the same thing? True, very true. Or that again which most nearly approaches the condition of the individual — as in the body, when but the finger is hurt, the whole frame, drawn toward the soul and forming one realm under the ruling power therein, feels the hurt and sympathizes all together with the part afflicted, and then we say that the man has a pain in his finger; or gain, in any other part, when there is a sensation of pain or pleasure at suffering, or alleviation of suffering, the same expression is used? “Yes,” he replied, “that is as you say; and I agree with you that in the best ordered state there is the nearest approach to this common feeling which you describe.” Then when any one of the citizens experiences any good or evil, the whole state will make his case their own, and either rejoice or sorrow with him? “Yes,” he said, “that will be true in a well ordered state.”
So, the War on Education continues. It really is a sign of the times when the one thing all parties use to agree on before the Neo-Con/Right Wing Nut/1%/Racist got their way, was: education is important and will set up free! I guess it was the "free" word that bug these greedy bastards because in their minds, Nothing Should Be Free but Tax Cuts For The Masters. Is this why Donald Trump appointed the most unqualified person ever as secretary of education? Betsy DeVos, a wealthy 1% who thinks public-education should be privatized through the voucher system?
Trump Rubbing Bellybuttons with Devos.
Why is this, really? What do they have against education for all? Well, let’s see.
Bormann With Arms Folded.
Well, there is the fact that the less education one has, the more likely they are to vote for despots. As the German Evil-Doer, Martin Bormann said in 1942: “Education is dangerous. It is enough if they can count to 100. Every educated person is a future enemy. Religion we leave to them as a means of diversion.” Did I mention DeVos was a devout Christian? I’m just saying.
So we've all read or heard about the latest Qanon conspiracy theroies, which state the only US president to ever come out and say, "Yes, I am a liberal," was killed by liberals... do I go on? Okay, I will, the conspiracy goes on to link Democrats to child pornography.
Hmmm, if you are still reading, I only have to say this: The real child-pornography actually started with today's Republican movement. Don't believe me? Today's conservative movement grew out of the early 60's Young Americans for Freedom movements from college campuses founded by William F Buckley and Robert E. Bauman. Robert E. Bauman pleaded guilty and was convicted as a child-molester. So, Qanon, instead of making up shit on Democrats, why don't you clean house first. Here's a list to help you -- it's long.
The following damning list of Republican offenders has been harvested
from a site which has offered itself up for sale to any person willing
to purchase it and do as they wish with.
This post is as much to ensure that in the event this should happen, the information remains collated and in one place.
It would appear that the Republicans share and have much in common with
the church. Along with opposing women's rights, supporting bigoted
religious views and giving their campaigns an easy ride. The sex abuse
by the Catholic Church and Vatican, described by Geoffrey Robertson the
Australian human rights lawyer as endemic, seems to be as endemic among
prominent republican leaders. This is all the more sickening when they
present themselves as the party of the righteous and the family, using
religion as credibility to that which they stand for.

Update: Where is Robert (Bob) Bauman today? Still pushing his zero-tax-for-the-rich bullshit:
Sunday
Esoteric Sunday
Having overcome all traces of selfishness and desire, Siddhartha entered a deep meditative state in order to realize the ultimate reality -- not merely for his own benefit, but for the sake of all beings. Throughout the night he sat recalling his previous existences, until at dawn he achieved perfect Enlightenment. He had become a Buddha, an 'awakened one.' For several weeks the Buddha remained in meditation beneath his tree. During this time he was visited by the gods Indra and Brahma, who begged him to share his experience with others for the benefit of those who would understand his teachings. It is often overlooked that H.P. Blavatsky, founder of the Theosophical Society
in 1875, was the first person to bring both Buddhism and Hinduism to
the West. Of course, there were orientalists and scholars who had
written books about the Eastern religions prior to Blavatsky’s day but
these were merely written from the perspective of academic observation
and more often than not misrepresented the religions as being primitive,
superstitious, and “demonic,” according to the level of prejudice and
bigotry of the writer.
Blavatsky, however, presented them as valid and noble spiritual paths and philosophies – indeed as the highest
spiritual paths and philosophies – and worked ceaselessly and under
much persecution from the Christian elite to show their true nature and
real worth and importance. As has been said elsewhere, anyone in the
West today whose life has been at all enriched by the concepts,
teachings, or practices of Eastern spirituality has – whether they realize it or not – Madame Blavatsky to thank for it. It is a great
shame then that many people today refuse to read her writings on the
nonsensical grounds that they are “impossible to understand.”
The respected Buddhist expert Richard Taylor has written, “Blavatsky
had access to Tibetan Buddhist sources which no other Westerner during
her time had. Her works are by no means merely strings of plagiarisms,
but rather very cogent arguments, supplemented by masses of data, that
her readers should believe Buddhist claims that there is a perennial
philosophy, in the possession of Adepts, which explains the origins of
the world and leads to salvation from it. … Blavatsky knew what the
Buddhist Tantras were, knew their content and philosophical import
better than any Western contemporary, and knew bona fide Tibetan
traditions surrounding them. This alone gives strong reasons not to
dismiss her claims out of hand.”
In 1925 the Panchen Lama of Tibet officially endorsed her book “The
Voice of The Silence” and called it the “only true exposition in English
of the Heart Doctrine of the Mahayana and its noble ideal of
self-sacrifice for humanity.”
When the centenary edition of this book was brought out in 1989, the
present Dalai Lama wrote, “I am therefore happy to have this long
association with the Theosophists and to learn about the Centenary
Edition: THE VOICE OF THE SILENCE which is being brought out this year. I
believe that this book has strongly influenced many sincere seekers and
aspirants to the wisdom and compassion of the Bodhisattva Path. I very
much welcome this Centenary Edition and hope that it will benefit many
more.”
All these souls, after they have passed away a thousand years, are
summoned by the divine ones in great array, to the lethean river. . .In
this way they become forgetful of the former earthlife, and re-visit the
vaulted realms of the world, willing to return again into living
bodies.
