I live in the northeast and the weather has been great. This weather has allowed the freemasons over at my place to really breeze through the building my altar to Satan.

I wanted to thank Verlich for putting me onto some of those great sites of his. If I had not learned the secret hand sign of the devil or learned to shout Tuba-Cain they would never have helped me get this altar built. Normally I have to built the damn thing myself.

Anyway everyone is invited to the halloween feast over at my place. Nothing hits the spot like sacrificed goat on a moonlit night.

If you can't make it I hope you have a great Halloween.


If I knew then what I know now then I would know more now than I know.

Unfortunately I won't be able to attend. However, I might go to those sites, build an altar of my own and invite some of my friends around for a nice ritual. I have a lot of friends studying to be medics, they like cutting in things. Maybe we could even synchronize the rituals?

Ooh! I'll bring the fire extinguisher - just in case of any possible casualty, after we burn the human sacrifices.

We can just all set up some webcams and webconference our various individual rituals! That way the Euro-Masons and the Ameri-Masons can catch up, trade tips on how to best sacrifice the goats, and just network a bit!

Had I but known eariler!

As it is, I will attend the feast and ceremonies at one of our local covens. We will again summon a demon or two, and I personally hope they will better than the pair of losers that shambled out of the Pentagram last year. It takes more than mere ugly to a make a proper demon and those were a disappointment.

The menu will be roast, sacrificial virgin with trimmings, if a virgin can be found and captured, or a pig if not. No matter, they taste pretty much the same, anyway.

After the demons and feast, there will be a medly of Harry Potter readings and singing of profane songs.

All very dull and ordinary, alas, but I'm already commited to it. Maybe next year.....

Sheesh. You're all a bunch of traditionalists.

Look, get a Baptist and a Catholic into a fist fight (with each other), eat a communion wafer which has been spit upon by a rabbi, and do something tremendously rude to yourself with a halibut while reading backwards from the Bible, and the demons will appear to service you for a week in ways you cannot imagine, and will leave behind a steamer trunk full of hundred-dollar bills and a potion that takes 20 years of age away, and doubles your strength and IQ. After that, it's just 666 hours of service to the Dark Lord, on a schedule you set, before you get to do it all again. It's that simple!

Well, no, it's not, but I'm not going to tell you the first two steps, 'cause you'll just squander the power. Amateurs.

All these feasts, ceremonies and sacrifices are for loooooosers. Waste of time and energy. You can give your soul over to evil from the comfort of your very own home.

Yes. Love profane songs. One of my favorites is "Greensleeves", but using Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky" for the lyrics.

Well its good to see you all acting like children again!!!!

Egypt already killed plenty of human babies in Egypt. We do it just alittle more sneaky in the form of Abortion. I watched the feminazies million woman march on C-span, shouting how my body is my body and you can't stop me Bush from Abortion (or murdering the unborn). They where angry and this and lesbianism are front and center. I kept watching the oblisk behind them, pointing straight up in the air. Exactly 555 ft. tall, with 111 ft of foundation in the ground, making it exactly 666 ft. tall, and thinking wow these women don't even know what they are doing. The symbolism of this marching. The women even acknowledged the symbol behind them, and truimphing how great this day was. You had most of the female senators and governors there! Take away womans right to vote and we wouldn't have this problem!

http://usparks.about.com/cs/natlparkbasics/a/washingtonmon.htm

Thats for who ever doesn't think its an obelisk!!!

A funny note, the woman kept shouting that this is the biggest march ever in the history of America to protect a womans right to kill her unborn baby, they said over 1.5 million women and metrosexual men are here! Well feminazies aren't good at doing math either, there was only 620,000 angry women. Seriously here is the platform, Promotion of a gay lifestyle and Abortions, that got me wound up for days!

There are no atheists in foxholes

Underlying the evolutionary theory is not just the classic "stuff" of science — conclusions arrived at through prolonged observation and experimentation. Evolution is first an atheistic, materialistic world view. In other words, the primary reason for its acceptance has little to do with the evidence for or against it. Evolution is accepted because men are atheists by faith and thus interpret the evidence to cor-respond to their naturalistic philosophy.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. II Timothy 4:3,4

send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

"Thus, many scientists embracing naturalism find themselves in the seeming dilemma recently articulated by biochemist Franklin Harold: "We should reject, as a matter of principle, the substitution of intelligent design for the dialogue of chance and necessity [i.e., Darwinian evolution]; but we must concede that there are presently no detailed Darwinian accounts of the evolution of any biochemical system, only a variety of wishful speculations."

Lol calls us childish and then spouts his own absurdities as if he was part of our sacred order.

Scary part is everyone but Verlch was joking. Did Mother Mary piss in you froot loops or something?

Wow! Now he want's to repeal the 19th Admendment! I'll not ask why -- the answer might cause me to spit whiskey through my nose and clog my keyboard with high proof snot.

Verlch, you never fail to amaze me!

I love both Greensleeves and the Jabberwocky! I never thought of combining the two. I'll lay it on my son-in-law, who is an acomplished guitarist and plays an excellent piano.

Thanks!

Sigh. Over here, verlch, you posted this link as authoritative regarding obelisks. In section four, that site says,
These obelisks are not included in my list of the obelisks, because these ones are not supposed to be an authentic obelisk.
And it includes the Washington Monument on that page, because "authentic" obelisks are made out of a single piece of stone.

While an About.com geek and even the National Park Service have chosen to call the Washington Monument an obelisk, that doesn't make it the truth. It's definitely shaped like an obelisk, but it's not built like one, nor is it carved with hieroglyphics from top to bottom like most monolithic Egyptian obelisks were.

And speaking of the truth, the National Park Service says the monument stands 555 feet, 5 1/8 inches tall. If your measurement of how deep it is is correct, it makes the overall height 666.427083 feet, and not 666 feet. See how easy it is for that conspiracy "evidence" to evaporate in the light of reality?

Don't you mean GOD killed plenty of human babies in Egypt? The story says that GOD murdered the firstborn of every Egyptian family.... So the murder of children is a godly act, according to the bible.

That was because he wouldn't let His people go! That was the final and 10th plague. All Egypt had to do was to let them go after the 1st plague. God was declaring His point.

(3) God promised to bless those that blessed Israel and curse those that cursed them. Every government that has persecuted the Jews has fallen even to modern times. The Russian government, which has had a national policy of persecution of the Jews, is in shambles. However, the United States, who has always been the friend of the nation of Israel, has prospered greatly. No matter how intense has been the persecution of Israel, God has protected them. In 1967, in what is called the Six Day War, the tiny nation of Israel utterly destroyed all the combined efforts the Arab nations which surround them. It has been called one of the greatest military victories in history. Against impossible odds they repelled everything the Arab threw at them. They not only defected these forces, but took great amounts of land including in the south the Gaza Strip to the Nile River, the West Bank and all of Jerusalem. Surely God's protecting hand is upon this small nation.

http://www.bible-truth.org/GEN12.HTM

" And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat"?Luke 22:31

Give an ear and debate weather something is true or not. In Hollywood they try and portray Christians as giant baffons. Why, because they hate the truth. There has to be a reason the Jews are hated by all nations.

2) Persecution ? The Lord also warned the Jews that they would be persecuted wherever they went. Again, the words of Moses are graphic in this regard: "And among those nations you shall find no rest, and there shall be no resting place for the sole of your foot; but there the Lord will give you a trembling heart, failing of eyes, and despair of soul" (Deuteronomy 28:65).

3) Desolation ? God promised that after their dispersion, their land would become "desolate" and their cities would become "waste" (Leviticus 26:33). Moses put it more graphically when he said, "the foreigner who comes from a distant land . . .will say, 'All its land is brimstone and salt, a burning waste, unsown and unproductive, and no grass grows in it'" (Deuteronomy 29:22-23).

God has fulfilled all four of these prophecies during the past 2,000 years. In 70 A.D. the Romans destroyed the city of Jerusalem and took the Jewish nation into captivity, desolating the land and scattering the Jewish people across the face of the earth. As prophesied, everywhere they went they were persecuted, with their persecution culminating in the Nazi Holocaust of World War II.

1) Regathering ? The Old Testament prophets promise repeatedly that the day will come when God will regather the Jews to Palestine (see Isaiah 11:10-12 and Ezekiel 36:22-28). This remarkable regathering of the Jews from the four corners of the earth has occurred in our life time. World War I prepared the land for the people as the control of Palestine was transferred from a nation that hated the Jews (the Turks) to a nation that was sympathetic to their return (Britain). The Holocaust of World War II prepared the people for the land by motivating them to return.

And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. Isaiah 11:10-12

And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.
Therefore say unto the house of Israel, thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. Ezekiel 36: 20-24

2) Nationhood ? The prophets stated that when the people were regathered, the nation of Israel would be re-established. This occurred on May 14, 1948 (see Isaiah 66:7-8; Zechariah 12:3-6). This is the cornerstone prophetic event of our age. It is an event that prophetic scholars have pointed to for 400 years amid much scoffing and ridicule by those who did not believe that Israel would ever exist again as a nation.

Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. Isaiah 66:7-8


And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.
In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.
Zechariah 12:3-6

"This desolate land has become like the garden of Eden!" (Ezekiel 36:35). And that is exactly what people exclaim today when they visit Israel, for it is once again a land of milk and honey. Over 300 million trees have been planted in this century. Rainfall has increased 450 percent. The former malaria infested swamps have been converted into cultivated land. Water from the Sea of Galilee has been channeled to the deserts, causing them to bloom.

4) Language ? When the Jews were scattered worldwide in the first century, they ceased speaking the Hebrew language. The Jews who settled in Europe developed a language called Yiddish (a combination of Heb

So you worship a baby slaughtering psycho, nice.

No matter what Ramses did it doesnt change the fact that those babies were innocent. Note the congruence with the modern pro-life movement, I guess the're against God.
