Dalrock has another excellent post criticizing the “servant leadership” concept of modern Churchians, link below. However, he too missed the point of a Scriptural passage, focusing on a tangent of Dread Game.
.But Jesus called them to him and said, .You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant. (Matt. 20:25.26, ESVOpen in Logos Bible Software (if available)).
Those who are great in the kingdom are those who have given themselves away like this. So a man who wants his authority to be recognized in his home.whoever would “be great..must pursue that authority the way Jesus says to do it. But when he pursues the role of servant, he is pursuing genuine authority. He is not pursuing the status of “nullity” or .milquetoast.” And when he pursues this under the blessing of God, the very first person to see it will be his wife.
No, that is not what Christ meant. Why do Godless men seek power? For the sake of having power, getting the seat of honor and being remembered in the history books. In other words, for his personal benefit. Why should a Godly man seek power? To accomplish deeds, to follow Christ’s example, to raise a healthy family, to do well at his job. In other words, for the benefit of others.
Consider a Colonel in a banana republic. He has a company of soldiers under his command, logistics/wealth, a great deal of power. Living amongst corruption, he is often offered money for mercenary activities, everybody from local governments seeking priority to drug cartels wanting to purchase protection. What should he do with the power he has?
Most such Colonels will act in his own best interest. By the time he retires, he will have a fortified compound staffed with personal retainers. Money, status and harems are what he deserves because he’s a Colonel! He’s too busy looking out for himself to care about the long-term consequences of his actions.
The Christian Colonel, however, understands that responsibility came with his position. He must defend taxpayers in general and his nation from foreign threats specifically. He might still take mercenary work–he might well need to, to feed his men–but he is guided by a purpose outside of himself. The world doesn’t revolve around him.
Mission focus. The mission comes first. That was the point Christ was getting at. It is also a major sexual difference. Women are solipsistic; they seek power to hoard power, to patch their personal weaknesses, for their benefit. Men want to accomplish, to do things outside himself that will outlast him like the works of a sculptor.
Wilson is the Godless Colonel. He’s a winner in his society and if you want to have success like him then you need to become a winner, too! But unsaid is that if you actually try, well, the company can have only one Colonel and he’ll assassinate the upstart before risking replacement.
By contrast, the Christian Colonel isn’t threatened by the success of others. He doesn’t want to get killed/replaced either but understands that he can’t hold his position forever and will look after his own interests only after securing his chosen mission’s success.
What is the significance of this for the common MGTOW with no position in society? Mission focus. Develop a skill or position or bank account or something that can be of use to others and then seek a worthy student.
Martial artists teach that mastering an art involves three steps: Learn It, Do It, Teach It. Christ’s example of discipleship follows the same recipe. Seek power and proficiency and however much you achieve, use it for the benefit of others. This is selfishness, not selflessness. You are learning, doing and teaching what you want for who you like. Neither Christ nor MGTOW philosophy has any use for a martyr.
It’s your life, see? Spend it however you want but SPEND IT before Death takes it away. Do this and you’ll be Christ’s ideal of a leader even if nobody follows.
Christ reiterated His above teaching with the Parable of the Shrewd Manager, Luke 16:1-9:
Jesus told his disciples: .There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. So he called him in and asked him, .What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer..
.The manager said to himself, .What shall I do now? My master is taking away my job. I’m not strong enough to dig, and I’m ashamed to beg. I know what I.ll do so that, when I lose my job here, people will welcome me into their houses..
.So he called in each one of his master’s debtors. He asked the first, .How much do you owe my master?.
..Nine hundred gallons of olive oil,. he replied.
.The manager told him, .Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it four hundred and fifty..
.Then he asked the second, “And how much do you owe?.
..A thousand bushels of wheat,. he replied.
.He told him, .Take your bill and make it eight hundred..
.The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light. I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings.”
This parable bothered me for a long time. It sounded like God was endorsing criminal conduct. The correct understanding is not whether the original accusation against the manager was accurate; it was that the manager made use of the authority he had, while he had the opportunity, to improve his own situation by improving the situations of others.
Imagine Jerry Springer going on a shooting spree in a police station in front of a live studio audience. That would not be as strange as the latest major shootout in Florence, South Carolina, in which two separate men, both emotionally castrated by their women, got seven cops shot while serving a child molestation search warrant.
Seven law enforcement officers were wounded [one fatally and another terminal] during a shootout in suburban Florence, South Carolina on Wednesday afternoon.
The shootout took place at an address in the upscale Vintage Place subdivision . at a home belonging to Florence, S.C. family law attorney Cheryl Turner-Hopkins and her husband, 74-year-old Vietnam War veteran Frederick Hopkins.
Deputies with the Florence County sheriff’s office were in the process of serving a search warrant at this address at around 4:00 p.m. EDT when they were fired upon by a suspect within the residence. According to our sources, the search warrant sought information related to an ongoing child sexual assault investigation. One of the female deputies caught up in the initial round of gunfire is a criminal sexual conduct investigator. Another is a forensic technician.
All told, four Florence police officers and three county deputies were wounded in the shooting.
Right off the bat, this isn’t just a “search warrant”. This is a multi-jurisdiction force knowing what (who) it would find.
The three deputies were reportedly shot during the initial hail of gunfire, while the four city police officers were shot as they responded to assist their fallen comrades. A roughly two-hour standoff ensued following the gunfire, during which time the wounded deputies were rescued with the assistance of an armored vehicle and transported to a local hospital.
Eventually the suspect . who reportedly used a high-powered rifle during the incident . agreed to surrender after speaking with a hostage negotiator. A young, white male in a pink shirt with close-cropped brown hair was seen being led from the home in handcuffs following the incident, however we are told his individual is not believed to be the suspected shooter.
Other accounts report the official shooter, Fred Hopkins, is comatose in the hospital with a head wound and “unable to talk with police”. For there to have been a two-hour standoff with no additional injuries, there was more than one shooter involved despite media claims. Not to mention, the other people at the house obviously weren’t pro-cop.
In addition to the law enforcement casualties, a 20-year-old male was wounded inside the home. Several children were also inside the home at the time of the shooting, but thankfully none of them were hurt during the incident. …
The disclosure of information related to this particular officer-involved shooting . the 29th this year . has been less coordinated that usual due to a most atypical law enforcement response. In a bizarre break with protocol, agents of the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) . who lead nearly all investigations of officer-involved shootings in the Palmetto State . were told to leave the crime scene by Florence County sheriff Kenney Boone. In fact, a SLED special weapons and tactics (SWAT) team initially dispatched to respond to the shooting was actually called away from the scene.
What gives? Readers of this news outlet are well aware that Boone has been sparring with SLED over an investigation involving his personal life. According to our sources, Boone summoned investigators with the Richland County sheriff’s department to investigate the shooting after dismissing SLED. Richland County is the only other law enforcement agency in the state that does not permit SLED to lead investigations into its officer-involved shootings.
Okay, that’s the official-story-so-far. I waited to see what the updates would have to say:
A 74-year-old Vietnam War veteran and disbarred lawyer has been identified as the primary suspect in a Florence, South Carolina shooting that left one police officer dead and seven people (including six other law enforcement officers) wounded on Wednesday.
Frederick Thomas Hopkins is being held by local law enforcement in connection with the shooting, according to reporter Meg Kinnard of The Associated Press. He has yet to be transferred to a detention center for booking and arraignment because he reportedly sustained a head injury during yesterday’s attack.
Hopkins was hospitalized at Carolinas Hospital System, which was placed on lockdown in the aftermath of the shooting.
A local law enforcement source told us the alleged shooter is “crazy” and has been involved in several domestic incidents.
Is your Google broke, you lazy journalists? Per the freakin’ AP news feed:
“According to public court records, Hopkins. charges include two in 2015 and 2017 for “running at large,. an offense related to not restraining one’s animals.”
Probably big dogs like rottweilers or German shepherds. I don’t suppose the neighbors would have complained about a teacup poodle cruising the neighborhood. Criminals like to own dangerous animals and let them run free. If the dog kills a cop then the crook only gets a slap on the wrist. These laws are often intended to thwart such behavior.
In 2002, Fred T. Hopkins, acting pro se, sued two men over the building of his home. The court dismissed his case because he refused to participate in mediation as required by court order, the documents say.
And most damningly of all, this “crazy guy” with an arrest record is apparently a foster grandparent. From the same AP URL,
Kirby says officers were trying to serve a warrant involving an accusation that a 27-year-old person at the home sexually assaulted a foster child in the home.
Does Child Protective Services TRY to give little kids to bad guys? Ah, but the wife is a successful divorce attorney…
As we noted in our original coverage, deputies with the Florence County sheriff’s office were in the process of serving a search warrant at the home of Hopkins. wife . Florence, S.C. family law attorney Cheryl Turner-Hopkins . when they were fired upon.
Cheryl Turner-Hopkins was not at the home at the time of the shooting.
Probably intentional on the cops’ part. A good attorney can throw up all kinds of legal objections during a search warrant. Generally a dick move but here, I wholeheartedly approve.
.According to our sources, the search warrant sought information related to an ongoing child sexual assault investigation,. we reported yesterday.
That information has now been confirmed.
According to Kinnard’s report, the search warrant “involved an accusation that a 27-year-old person at the home sexually assaulted a foster child who lives in the home..
That individual has now been identified as Seth Hopkins, who was wounded during the shooting. Seth Hopkins. Facebook page indicated he was employed by his mother’s law firm.
.The search warrant was only for Seth’s room and for Seth’s things,. a source familiar with the situation told us. .(Frederick Hopkins) set up his rifle and ambushed the officers..
Freddy gunned down seven cops who weren’t even looking for him specifically. Knowing cops, they would have announced this fact at the very start of their presence at the house, which means Freddy knew his grandson was guilty.
And an ambush with a rifle? Not indoors. Freddy would have had to set up outside his home and shoot through the windows. There’s no way he would have downed all seven in one go–which again, means there was a second shooter on the inside.
Three Florence County deputies . all females . were wounded in the initial hail of gunfire. When officers of the Florence, S.C. police department responded to reports of shots being fired at the residence, they also came under fire.
One of those responding officers . 52-year-old Terrence Carraway of Darlington, S.C. . was killed when a bullet struck him in the head.
Yep. One shooter takes out three, the remaining cops take cover from the first and are shot from behind by a second shooter. Maybe one of the cops dropped Freddy; that would jive with a two-hour standoff followed by that’s-not-Freddy being frogmarched out, and Freddy having taken a head wound. Look at the size of his (wife’s) house:
As of this writing, two of the deputies were in critical condition with gunshot wounds to the upper torso while another was in stable condition with a gunshot wound to the leg. According to our sources, one of the wounded deputies .isn.t doing well. and reportedly coded . or experienced cardiopulmonary arrest . twice after being hospitalized.
Meanwhile, a Florence police officer reportedly had to have a part of his skull removed after getting struck by a bullet.
Sounds like the final count will be two cops murdered and a third with permanent brain damage. Double capital murder, five-time attempted murder, even his neighbor got winged, all with special, sentence-enhancing circumstances that will put paid to taking his chances with a jury. I hope the jailers mistakenly put Freddy in general population.
But as always, the real story is the people not the actions. Let’s start with old Freddy. Continuing the article,
Hopkins is a trained shooter. Recent posts from his Facebook page . which was taken down late Wednesday . showcased his various weapons. Meanwhile, Hopkins touted his proficiency as a shooter.
In a 2012 post, he wrote of entering a shooting competition in an effort to “get my old form back. . citing his victory in the previous year’s .3-Gun Silhouette. championship. A three-gun championship is a competitive shooting event in which participants use rifles, pistols and shotguns at varying distances and from various positions.
.I have been shooting competitively since 1984 and lovin. it,. Hopkins wrote in one post back in 2014. .I just love the smell of gunpowder in the mornin.s..
This sounds like it could be used as propaganda against gun ownership but it won’t be, because… I’ll get to his wife.
Hopkins boasted of owning an M-14 automatic rifle, which was the primary combat rifle issued to American soldiers during the Vietnam War (until it was replaced by the M-16).
Hopkins claimed to have been exposed to Agent Orange . a herbicide used during the Vietnam War in an effort to deny food and vegetational cover to the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam (a.k.a. the Viet Cong). This exposure led to a cancer scare for which he received treatment at a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospital in Columbia, S.C.
.I was exposed to heavy doses of “Agent Orange” while performing combat duties with the 101st Airborne Division in Viet Nam in 1969-1970,. he wrote in one post. .I have been fighting this disease for five years on my own and the VA finally found out why I had pain and swollen nodules in my neck..
Did you know that the Vietnam Conflict produced fifteen times more crippled servicemen than actually served? Liberals of a certain age loved to self-identify as maimed Vietnam Vets because they got to self-righteously blame ‘Murica and throw a pity party at the same time.
It is not immediately clear what prompted Hopkins to allegedly open fire on deputies and police officers .
Buckle up.
Those confounding second lower eyelids again. I was expecting pedoface but no. A pessimist’s mouth. Masculine chin so capable of decisiveness but not jutting as I would expect for an aggressive man. Very inside-loaded eyebrows indicate a “start but don’t finish” personality. His upper eyelids are visible which combined with slightly upturned nose, this guy is sociable/emotional. Sunken cheeks indicate a lack of (perceived) control over personal circumstances. No brow indications of stubbornness or determination. My read is he has a decent amount of masculinity paired with an unfocused anger at the world.
Now his wife:
Cheryl Turner-Hopkins. Female pedoface! Unusual. We already know she’s a divorce attorney so no soul. Her hyphenated name proves she wears the pants in this marriage.
Care to guess how these two met? Professionally.
A Supreme Court decision from 2000 indicated that Fred Hopkins was married before to a woman named Carol Hopkins and that Cheryl Turner Hopkins, his second wife, helped him with the divorce.
.Mother and Father were married in 1967; they divorced in May 1983,. that court case said, referring to Fred and Carol Hopkins. .They had two children: (a son), born May 26, 1972, and (a second son), born December 4, 1969. Father was ordered to pay child support of $350.00 per month. In November 1986, Father was found to be $18,693.00 in arrears in his child support, and an order garnishing $432.60 per month of his military disability payments was entered..
The court case continued: .The younger son.went to live with Father for approximately 5 months, from late April, 1990, through September, 1990. In early May 1990, Father instituted the instant action seeking custody of (the son); a hearing was held on May 13, 1990, three days prior to (the son).s 18th birthday. Father sought termination of support for his older son “claiming he was over age 18 and was not entitled to post-emancipation support; Father did, however, request Mother be required to pay post-emancipation support for (the son). The family court gave Father temporary custody of (the son) but required Father to continue making his child support payments pending the final hearing..
The documents indicate: .he was represented at trial by his current wife, attorney Cheryl Turner Hopkins..
Fred Hopkins was disbarred from practicing law in 1984 for stealing $18k from a client:
$18k Is a suspiciously petty amount to lose one’s career over. However, this is one year after his divorce was final. Apparently, Freddy was so screwed over by the divorce that he’d begun tapping his clients’ accounts to pay the costs.
Cheryl married him but apparently didn’t love him, as proven by both refusing to take his last name and by the fact that two years later in 1986, Freddy was still almost $20k behind on his child support. She apparently wasn’t helping him with it; allowing his pension to be garnished made him financially dependent upon her. Cold-hearted bitch. Look again at that big plantation house the family lived in… she had money.
Her husband Freddy is a white knight, so desperate for female validation that he fell in love with his divorce attorney while his first wife was in process of divorcing him. He wasn’t protecting himself in this shooting; he was protecting an evil wife and (grand)sons from justice. She maltreated him and he was predisposed to project his frustrations onto the world.
One interesting case of Cheryl’s is a Hindu in South Carolina whose arranged marriage descended into double homicide (probably with a hitman). Read here:
Hindus in the Carolinas? Damn immivaders. But I digress.
To sum, Freddy got married, had three kids, got divorced, married his divorce attorney, was financially ruined to the point of being her “house husband”, lived angry at the world and fiercely protective of a woman who didn’t deserve or need protection. When a squad of police arrived to follow up on a suspicion of foster child sex abuse, he did his best to murder the cops with the assistance of one of his sons/grandsons. The combined actions of his two wives had reduced Freddy to a frothing pit bull on a leash.
BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE! Remember what I quoted above:
In a bizarre break with protocol, agents of the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) . who lead nearly all investigations of officer-involved shootings in the Palmetto State . were told to leave the crime scene by Florence County sheriff Kenney Boone. In fact, a SLED special weapons and tactics (SWAT) team initially dispatched to respond to the shooting was actually called away from the scene.
That’s the stuff conspiracy theories are made of. But this one isn’t a theory: Sheriff Kenney Boone hates SLED because they investigated credible death threats made against… Sheriff Boone… by his fiancee’s first husband… whose second wife is a SLED agent. Getting that Jerry Springer feeling yet?
The chaotic situation surrounding Florence County, South Carolina sheriff Kenney Boone is about to get crazier . to the extent that’s possible.
When we last tuned in to this unspooling soap opera, the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) had deferred its investigation into death threats allegedly made against Boone to detectives of the Richland County sheriff’s department. At Boone’s request. .
As we exclusively reported last week (and followed up on here), the ex-husband of Boone’s fianc?e, Anna Hovey (below, with the sheriff), is accused of threatening to kill Boone during a verbal altercation…
Complicating matters? [Alex] Curlington’s current wife . Genia Curlington . is currently employed by SLED and allegedly witnessed the exchange between her husband and the sheriff.
That’s not a love triangle. That’s a love rectangle. Genia watched Alex threaten Kenney because Alex’s wife Anna was cheating with Kenny, so Genia moved in and married Alex as soon as Anna left. Anna regretted leaving Alex for Kenney and started leaning on Kenney to get Genia fired as both payback and to monkey-branch a return, which is why she hasn’t yet tied the knot with Kenney… OW MY HEAD!!!!
Anna and Kenny. Kenny’s eyes are very horizontal and recessed. He’s emotionally controlled and guarded, which makes him seizing another man’s wife a very curious behavior. Anna is no Helen of Troy, to be fought over by Alpha males; her face is stretched out from years on the cock carousel and a couple bottles of Xanax. Her chest is flatter than Kenney’s reelection polls will be after he abandoned seven cops to die because he feared his fiancee’s former husband’s wife’s employer might end up looking good.
Happy Friday! If you need more weekend reading then peruse fitsnews. I was entertained and informed by them.
Well, indefinite hiatus. The site itself is still up but per Daryush Roosh its operator, recent SJW attacks have rendered it unprofitable and he personally is feeling burned out after years of running it. He’s got other things to do.
That’s life. Things come and go. I don’t fault Roosh for wearying of the attacks he’s taken; some of them have been huge. He also experimented with new stuff and that’s a rare personality trait that’s vulnerable to burnout.
Monetizing the Internet is a tricky thing. It destroys your anonymity and makes you dependent on the popularity game. If I get 20 views a day, eh, but if my blog was my primary income then it’d be go-time for desperate measures. So, you make your website your secondary job but then you have two jobs. That’s only fun until it isn’t.
In fact, almost no for-profit Manosphere websites have survived even one year. Aside from RoK, I can only think of various PUA sites and the associated controversies of selling false hope to determined blue-pillers.
I will never monetize my blog. Money is traceable and ruins anonymity. I take one single cent and a monstrous hydra of taxmen and business regulations will instantly rear its ugly heads.
RoK was a second-tier visit for myself. Jew-baiting is very tedious* and while it was a rich vein of sarcasm and putdowns, much refinement was necessary. But unlike liberals, I don’t feel threatened by the success of others. Life is not a zero-sum game, non-Christians have valid contributions to make concerning our shared problems and RoK’s authors occasionally had good content so I linked to them.
Now, I need to update my linkages and don’t know of any decent big-name sites. Kids these days seem to prefer streaming audio-video to written blogs so maybe there aren’t any to be found. Kinda sad. I know Earl advertises my blog (thank you, Earl!) but for me, it feels awkward to do drive-by “check out my blog!” posts like a spambot.
*This is why I don’t link to heartiste even though he’s the guy who turned me on to physiognomy. Seriously, it’s like Stormfront uses his blog for a backup server. Heartiste will write an article about social dynamics and the first comment will be “(((da J00Z))) Every Time!!!”
Bonus, Brett Kavanaugh in the postscript. John Moorlack came to my attention as being one of only two California state senators who tried to fix the crashing Calpers pension system without asking a belligerent, expansionist, Communist nation for help.
What kind of personality does it take to swim in the #4 American matriarchy (behind Massachusetts, New York and Florida Man)? Being popular enough with wimmins to get elected yet without losing one’s soul? Let’s see.
And a profile pic:
The profile pic helps apply physiognomy to the entire shape of the head. For example, a large forehead generally denotes intelligence but can vary depending on whether the forehead is sloped back or near vertical.
And one more pic:
Taken during a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the opening of Orange County’s Mental Health Complex. No direct relevance to this article but what a great background for memes!
The Chinese would say he has an excellent Moon face–large head, rounded at top and bottom but not a circle-head like Charlie Brown. Such men tend to have many children and tendencies towards idleness, business, novelty and food. Short-term business negotiations are a stereotypical behavior.
By contrast, the Western system would describe his face as pear-shaped, the Peacemaker. He has his emotion carefully under control and values consensus with others. A good advisor-type, he is helpful when consulted and insulted when ignored, because he would not ignore you.
A quick reading technique is to divide the face into horizontal thirds. If the upper third (forehead, crown) is prominent then he’s a thinker. (Not necessarily smart; could be artistic type, etc.) A prominent middle area, eyebrows to nose tip, denotes focus on ambition, status and luxury. Mark Zuckerberg is an example of this.
And a prominent lower area denotes practicality. If no band is prominent then ignore this and move along. Here, I’d say Moorlach has no prominent area but he chose his style of beard to emphasize the lower band. He wants to be seen as practical. (Facial hair should generally be viewed as a subconscious yet intentional effort to alter one’s physiognomic appearance.)
With a profile pic, we can look at the face concavity. Moorlach’s forehead is mildly swept back but the rest of his face is vertical. A jutting chin indicates aggression while a receded chin indicates aversion. Neutral generally means self-directed, or self-controlled, with no predispositions. Somewhat paradoxically, mentally organized people have swept-back foreheads while emotionally organized people have swept-foreward foreheads. Moorlach’s profile therefore presents as intelligent and self-directed, someone interested in tangible results.
Think of eyebrows as being the ‘bandwidth’ or ‘pipes’ of the mind. His eyebrows are very thin, suggesting single-mindedness and vulnerability to criticism. (One topic at a time, not much ‘insulation’ on the wiring.) They are spaced wide, suggesting mental farsightedness as opposed to close-eyebrow nearsightedness.
See the line on his septum, the bottom of his nose? That indicates a need for work that is personally satisfying, even if it comes at a loss of income.
The crow’s-feet at the outsides of his eyes denote serious marital trouble in the Chinese school. They can also indicate pedophilia so I personally (and for now) consider them to be general indicators of sexual problems.
I rather doubt Moorlach is a black hat given a brief review of his activities. Example, in 2016 he authored an enacted bill that helped fathers not be kicked out of their homes during divorce proceedings.
To conclude, this guy is intelligent, far-seeing and an extrovert who is very interested in keeping matters running smoothly, who tries to be a “down to earth” guy but has trouble making unpopular decisions, whose career could have been more financially successful than it has been by his personal choice, who if married is not happy. Not the worst type to end up in high office but not the man to face down the Social Justice freaks, either.
Let’s check wikipedia.
Born Johannes Meindert Willem Moorlach in Groningen, Netherlands, Moorlach’s family came to the United States when he was four years old. He grew up in the Orange County cities of Cypress and Buena Park. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in business administration from the California State University, Long Beach in 1977. He is a certified public accountant and certified financial planner. Before entering public office, he was vice president of accounting firm Balser, Horowitz, Frank and Wakeling, and the administrative partner of its Costa Mesa office. With his wife, Trina, he has three children.
Well, not divorced. That’s something. A successful career as a CPA, probably lucrative. He rose high in management.
Moorlach first came to public attention by predicting the largest municipal bond portfolio loss and bankruptcy in U.S. history while campaigning for the office of Orange County Treasurer-Tax Collector against incumbent Democrat Robert Citron in 1994. Citron resigned in disgrace later that year and was replaced on an interim basis by Tom Daxon. On March 17, 1995, Moorlach was appointed to fill the vacancy, was elected by the voters in 1996 to complete the unexpired term, and re-elected in 1998 and 2002, serving nearly twelve years.
He is recognized as a leading expert on municipal bankruptcies. He received phone calls regarding a looming municipal bond crisis in Jefferson County, Alabama.
Cool! The septum was right! He left private practice to become a leading expert on municipal bankruptcies. Not as lucrative but very important and possibly very satisfying.
Gov. Brown was a moron to reject Moorlach’s plan for pension reform. Then again, he’d already brokered a deal with the Chinese. Why tighten the belt when you can betray your people one last time before retiring to endless, insulated luxury?
Postscript, Moorlach’s face-reading is comparable to Brett Kavanaugh’s.
Less cheeky and his nose is straight, so more introverted. In the lower pic you can see a vertical determination line between the brows. Nose is similar but no septum line so Brett isn’t as deeply invested in his work. Clean-shaven so more comfortable with how he’s perceived; confirmed by his eyes being the same size. Same crows-feet but smaller; probably insignificant.
His grooming is not perfect; notice the hair over the tops of his ears and hair down to the collar. He isn’t vain.
The horizontal line across the top/root of his nose indicates burnout.
Disciplined, intelligent, concerned for facts over social approval, not concerned with notions of legacy. He will likely continue judging according to his currently held principles and resign at a relatively young age.
Hat tip to commenter Wayne! It seems the smart money these days is on China, ruled by totalitarian Communist despots who are xenophobic and murderous enough to keep their nation intact despite the actions of globalists. In many ways, they’re the alt-right’s ideal of a tribal ethnostate. Their collusion with California’s tech giants for total information control of society is ominous and guaranteed to succeed beyond their wildest dreams. American leaders are desperate to sell out to China at any price, giving Chinese-operated companies control over everything from power plants to pension plans.
But in the process of rising to a superpower in the wake of America’s globalist-induced suicide, the Chinese gov’t has made a fatal error.
They decided to erase God.
China Trying to ‘Rewrite the Bible,’ Force Churches to Sing Communist Anthems
WASHINGTON . The Chinese government is supervising a five-year plan to make Christianity more compatible with socialism in which there will be a “rewrite” of the Bible, a prominent religious freedom activist has told Congress.
The Rev. Bob Fu, a former Chinese house church leader who immigrated to the United States in 1997 and founded the persecution watchdog organization China Aid, provided great detail during a House hearing Thursday about a plan enacted by leading state-sanctioned denominations in China to “Sinicize” Christianity.
As China’s crackdown on religion has seen many house churches demolished and thousands of crosses removed from churches nationwide, Fu warned upfront that what is happening right now in China represents the highest degree of persecution for independent faith groups the country has seen in decades.
“Religious freedom in China has really reached to the worst level that has not been seen since the beginning of the Cultural Revolution by Chairman Mao [Zedong] in the 1960s,” he told members of the House Foreign Affairs’ Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations.
For the interested, the Cultural Revolution also saw the near-loss of Chinese physiognomy. Chairman Mao apparently didn’t like the idea that humans were not interchangeable cogs to be molded arbitrarily. Intentionally forgetting history has always been one of socialism’s priorities but God will be a little harder to tear down than Prospector Pete.
At the center of this new level of persecution is China’s new regulation on religious affairs that was released last year but enacted on Feb. 1. According to Fu, the revision of the religious regulations are to actively guide religion to “adapt to socialist society.”
In a written testimony, Fu said that under the new regulations religious activity sites will “accept the guidance, supervision, and inspection of relevant departments of the local people’s government regarding the management of personnel, finances, assets, accounting, security, fire protection, protection of relics, health and disease prevent and so forth.” …
He explained that the CCC and TSPM held a seminary last July for preliminary discussion about the five-year plan. He added that the plan outline was finalized at a meeting this March.
I found the outline of that plan so we’ll switch articles at this point. But first, a quick reading.
Usual caveat for reading a non-white. I think his head shape is Jade Face, noted for high optimism, sociability and carelessness (with details). Not a bad fit for a major evangelist and his concave, upturned nose confirms the sociability. Eye corners run downward but mouth corners are level so he’s not as pessimistic as one might expect. Huge nostrils means high energy level. Nonconformist ears and by Asian standards, a firm chin. Eyebrows are thin, high and wide; I suspect he’s expert at Christianity and not any other field of interest. His forehead has a defined brow and vertical lines above the nose predicting determination. He wants to help you and will bend the rules to do it but neither a chump nor a quitter.
Full text.China’s Policies and Practices on Protecting Freedom of Religious Belief
I. Basic Policies in Protecting Freedom of Religious Belief
China adopts policies on freedom of religious belief, manages religious affairs in accordance with the law, adheres to the principle of independence and self-management, actively guides religions to adapt to the socialist society, and unites religious believers and non-believers to the greatest extent.
This is a running theme throughout the article: you are free to believe in any religion you want but State interests come first and your religion is no better nor worse than anybody else’s. The only people who can believe that are atheists who think, as Marx did, that all religion “is the opiate of the masses”. But not all religions are equal, as China has surely discovered for itself in its dealings with the Uighur.
Adopting policies on freedom of religious belief. Respecting and protecting freedom of religious belief is a basic policy of the CPC and the Chinese government. Every citizen enjoys the freedom to choose whether to believe in a religion; to believe in a certain religion or a denomination of the same religion; to change from a non-believer to a believer and vice versa. Believers and non-believers enjoy the same political, economic, social and cultural rights, and must not be treated differently because of a difference in belief. The state respects citizens. freedom to religious belief and protects their normal religious activities. In exercising their right to free religious belief, believers should not interfere in the lawful rights of other people, or force others to believe in any religion. Believers should not discriminate against non-believers or believers of other religions. No one shall use religion to interfere in the lawful rights and interests of citizens. Believers should respect public order, customs, cultural traditions and social ethics in exercising their freedom of religious belief.
The boldfaced part is utter bullshit. What you believe matters. If you’re atheist then you’ll spend your life looking out for yourself because there’s no life after death. If salvation is by good works a la Islam then you’ll pay your dues and then do whatever. If you’re Christian trying to be a certain kind of person then you’ll do good even for your enemies… a concept entirely foreign to the Muslim and Communist.
Saddam Hussein hired many Christians to serve in his inner circle because Christian sectarian differences were placid compared to Islam’s and Iraqi Christians felt obligated to serve Hussein in fear of God rather than because he had to regularly bribe them. Christianity did not invent the term “assassin”.
It’s obvious why an atheist government would want to capitalize on a religion that teaches its members to expect only a postmortem reward; and it’s obvious why that government never profits when it tries to do so. “You’ll work for me forever and expect God to reward you after death? You moron! But sure, I’ll totally take advantage of you!” They make a point of repaying evil for good, for as long as they can, because they believe they’ll go unpunished by God.
And now you understand more about why God forces us to live these mortal lives. He doesn’t want to take our loyalty by force. The taking would make it worthless.
Managing religious affairs in accordance with the law. The state treats all religions fairly and equally, and does not exercise administrative power to encourage or ban any religion. No religion is given preferential treatment above other religions to enjoy special legal privileges.
They totally should give special status. Give us Christians freedom to follow Christ and we’ll serve a despot happily. This is a missed opportunity. But following Christ involves pointing out evil to the powers that be. Not even punishing that evil, we don’t even have to protest loudly, but cockroaches still can’t stand the light.
The blood-soaked Saddam Hussein could. That’s a pretty low standard.
Adhering to the principle of independence and self-management. Religious groups and religious affairs are not subject to control by foreign countries; this principle is enshrined in the Constitution of the People’s Republic of China. The Chinese government supports all religions in upholding the principle of independence and self-management, allowing religious groups, clerical personnel and believers to manage religious affairs themselves in accordance with the Constitution and law. This principle is a historic choice made by Chinese religious believers in the Chinese people’s struggle for national independence and social progress, as Catholicism and Protestantism, which were known as foreign religions in China, had long been controlled and utilized by colonialists and imperialists.
A reasonable complaint, although no credit is given to the benefits of Christianity. Among which is respect for authority and the belief that the world, created by a God of Reason, exists to be understood. The latter will become a problem for Chinese scientists when they can no longer steal tech from USA.
Chinese preference for their own culture is likely why Protestants vastly outnumber Catholics in China. There are benefits to the RCC’s way of doing things but it has a very distinct and exclusive culture.
Actively guiding religions in adapting to the socialist society means guiding religious believers to love their country and compatriots, safeguard national unity, ethnic solidarity, be subordinate to and serve the overall interests of the nation and the Chinese people. It also means guiding religious groups to support the leadership of the CPC and the socialist system; uphold and follow the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics; develop religions in the Chinese context; embrace core socialist values; carry forward China’s fine traditions; integrate religious teachings and rules with Chinese culture; abide by state laws and regulations, and accept state administration in accordance with the law.
There’s the deal-breaker. What these socialists do to the Bible will prove to be no different than America’s socialists tearing down historical statues. An obviously gutted parody of what once was more majestic than Current Year termites could ever dream of.
Father God has not allowed the Bible to be changed since the Apostles. Christ the Word of God will not tolerate the rewriting Scripture to direct worship of Him to another. If China implements this then the Communist PRC will have no more than one generation left to live.
Not that the atheist is even capable of heeding such a warning.
II. Legal Guarantees for Freedom of Religious Belief
The socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics is continuously being improved, with enhanced implementation of the rule of law in protecting freedom of religious belief and increasingly standardized governance of religious affairs, providing stronger guarantees for the lawful rights and interests of its religious believers.
Eternal Progress! Because the previous socialists didn’t try hard enough! This time we will succeed because… reasons!
Freedom of religious belief is protected by the Constitution. According to Article 36 of the Constitution of the People’s Republic of China, “Citizens of the People’s Republic of China enjoy freedom of religious belief. No State organ, public organization or individual may compel citizens to believe in, or not to believe in, any religion; nor may they discriminate against citizens who believe in, or do not believe in, any religion..
This is the end of Tolerance’s path: believe in whatever god you want, it doesn’t matter so long as you remember Caesar is your other god. Tradcucks like to talk about the “marketplace of ideas” where you can pick the Narrative you like best; but Christ teaches there is only one Truth hidden among ten million lies. The idea of allowing ideas to compete against each other is to test them for truth content.
Here, China is outlawing the idea that objective truth even exists to be found. They say with a straight face, IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT YOU BELIEVE. IT IS ALL EQUALLY VALID EVEN WHEN BELIEFS OPPOSE EACH OTHER. YOU MUST NOT CLAIM TO BE RIGHT AND THEM, WRONG.
Administrative regulations regarding religious affairs are improving. The revised Regulations on Religious Affairs released in September 2017 strengthen the protection of Chinese citizens. freedom of religious belief and the lawful rights and interests of religious groups, bring government’s management of religious affairs under due procedures in accordance with the law, and add provisions on safeguarding national security and maintaining social harmony.
I suppose they intend to use religious morality to explain why people should obey the State. Let’s explore that. Does Jesus want you to obey your government? Yes; the Commies will leave that in. Did Jesus require government to obey Him too? Yes, but that’ll get thrown out. Result: Jesus 2.0 wants you to obey the State even when the State openly disobeys Jesus 2.0 and puts words in his mouth like he’s a puppet. Which he is.
Either morality is objective or it isn’t. Either lying is always wrong or it’s okay if you can avoid punishment. King Comrade puts thieves to death while using tax money to purchase another luxury mansion… sickening hypocrisy that the people will notice.
Religious extremism and violent terrorist activities are dealt with in accordance with the law. The Counter-Terrorism Law of the People’s Republic of China states that China opposes all extremism that seeks to instigate hatred, incite discrimination and advocate violence by distorting religious doctrines or through other means, and forbids any discriminatory behavior on the grounds of region, ethnicity and religion.
Sounds exactly like America’s crop of leftoids. Wait… “forbids any discriminatory behavior on the grounds of ethnicity”? BWAHAHAAAA! The Han are already notorious genocides. Didn’t take them long to decide objective morality was a Biblical “translation error”.
IV. The Role of Religious Groups Has Been Fully Developed
China encourages all religions to keep pace with the times and adapt to the socialist society, and contribute to economic growth, social harmony, cultural prosperity, ethnic solidarity and national unification.
Everybody wants the benefits of religion (and exercise) without paying the costs.
While maintaining their basic beliefs, core religious teachings and etiquette system, the Buddhist and Taoist communities hold sermons, the Islamic community carries out work interpreting the classics, the Catholic community encourages the running of its religious work in a democratic manner, and the Protestant community conducts theological construction, all in an attempt to interpret religious teachings and rules to conform to the national conditions and demands of the times.
That doesn’t sound like Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Catholicism or Protestantism. Which is the end goal of both Party leaders and Lucifer: our humanity reduced to a gray goo, our bodies and souls treated as livestock, bled out in service to a faceless bureaucracy demanding change, always change, moving from one lie to another so quickly, with minds so dimmed, that the light of Truth can no longer be seen.
Rev. Fu calls this the Sinicization of Christianity but we know Convergence when we see it. This is no different from the Tradcucks’ gender-neutral Bible. The Chicomms are SJWs.
Father God is jealous of His achievements. He has sworn that his Word shall not be changed. By embarking on this campaign to rewrite the Word of God into Mao’s Other Little Book, the Chinese Communists have declared themselves to be Ground Zero for God’s Wrath.
My eyes are rolling in disgust and I haven’t even started.
GREEN BAY . The Green Bay Packers’ use of a patriotic banner instead of an American flag during the national anthem Sunday had social media all atwitter.
Packers director of Public Affairs Aaron Popkey said the Packers used banners before when other pregame activities take up part of the field. On Sunday, the University of Wisconsin Marching Band, which played the national anthem, occupied half the field.
.The banner used during Sunday’s pregame ceremony supplemented the three U.S. flags on the roof of the stadium and the flag carried by the color guard on the field,” Popkey said.
“We’ve used such displays from time to time in the past when other pregame elements take up a significant portion of the field. To avoid causing confusion, we will not be using such displays in the future..
The lying little shit thumbed his nose at America then told us ‘I did nothing wrong but I won’t do it again’ so we wouldn’t make him cry. Let me guess his appearance: Chinese ‘wood face’, squarish top and middle thirds narrowing to a receded, feminine chin; ears that stick out; problem glasses; wide, thin eyebrows; rounded eyelids; weak facial hair, probably tangled or otherwise poorly groomed.
Verdict on Aaron Popkey:
Wood face, glasses, eyebrows and ears confirmed. Miss on eyelids and hair. (I should have known; a high-level media professional will always be groomed.) The chin seems recessed but otherwise masculine so a tie. The middle third of his face is the prominent third, denoting ambition & status-seeking, which one would expect in his position.
He’s more organized and disciplined than a typical SJW but despite that, the Packers don’t need the bad press that Popkey’s intentionally anti-American stunt is causing them. Fire his ass yesterday or Green Bay’s pro-American fans, the ones remaining after previous stunts, are gone.
Keith Kozak says he was simply supporting his friends’ marriage, but now he’s out of a job with the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland.
Kozak was a campus minister at Cleveland State University and provided Catholic outreach to the school community, but now he’s out of a job because he claims the diocese fired him for “liking” a friend’s post about their gay marriage on Facebook in mid-September.
He believes a congratulatory post with a photo of him at another friends’ gay wedding in September 2017 also contributed to his firing.
There were TWO homo ‘marriages’ amongst his friends in one month? What kind of people is he associating with?
PHOTO: The Diocese of Cleveland is located on East 9th Street in downtown Cleveland. (Google Maps)
This photo was in the article. They don’t often give the exact address of a suitable target for Antifa protests. “Hold your anti-hate rally here, by the bus stop!”
Such lazy journalism. They didn’t even visit the diocese; just screencapped Google Earth.
“I really wasn’t even thinking about it at the time, that it would be anything detrimental,” Kozak told Cleveland ABC affiliate WEWS about his “like.” “[It] really feels discouraging that this is still happening.”
He’s lying. All the homosexual perversions coming out in the RCC today and he thought he’d be above it despite being a perpetrator of it? To say nothing of his blatant disrespect for the Will of God as known to every branch of Christendom.
Kozak says he was called into a meeting with his supervisor and a human resources person at the diocese a week ago. Kozak, who says he was up for a promotion, assumed the meeting was good news — until they began questioning him about the photos on social media.
“They sat me down and they said we had seen some things on Facebook and Twitter and that would like to talk to you about that,” Kozak told WEWS.
He admitted to “liking” the photo his friend posted about his wedding on Sept. 13 and sharing a few photos from the reception he attended last year at a different friend’s gay wedding.
“The very next day, I received a letter that said I was terminated,” Kozak said.
When reached for comment by WEWS, the Diocese of Cleveland refused to discuss specific personnel matters, but did cite ministerial exception for allowing such personnel decisions. Ministerial exception refers to a Supreme Court ruling that exempts religious institutions from anti-discrimination laws in their hiring practices.
The diocese told WEWS in a statement it was confident his firing was appropriate.
With good reason.
Kozak, who is gay himself, said the firing was a “wake-up call,” but he still considers himself Catholic.
How did his career as a priest of God survive one day after coming out a Sodomite in defiance of God?
“It’s a wake-up call for me,” he said. “It’s a wake-up call that I didn’t really realize the Catholic Church would act like this.”
More lies. He knew what the (real) Christians would do to him given the chance. Props to the diocese for cleaning house.
Keith Kozac. Ugh, those glasses get in the way of face-reading… and are creepy themselves.
There we go. Hmm, once again those lower eyelids draw the attention. The Chinese would call those “New Moon” eyes (the lids make the eyes look crescent-shaped) and not trust him. See the crows-feet at the outside of his eyes? One Western physiognomist describes those as jadedness or lack of gullibility but they’re more developed in the Chinese system, which says that’s proof he’s destined to be a failure at marriage. Vertical crows-feet are a particularly negative marital sign and Kozac has a vertical line almost reaching his jaw. When the tops of the ears are turned out, it usually only means the person wears glasses (as is the case here), but in the first photo you can see they’re alsp cupped. Most pedos seem to have that.
Also, his left eye is more closed than his right. His personal life is more guarded than his external life; a bad sign.
This isn’t physiognomy but his teeth make me think “vampire fangs”.
How do I know Kozac is a pedo? Because 1. Cleveland State University has the youngest, barely-legal boys available and 2. men naturally prefer younger lovers. Also, he’s a Satanist so why not. Defiling the innocent in God’s house probably gives him a special thrill. He didn’t infiltrate an enemy organization to make them look good.
Kim Kozak came up in my image search. If she’s his wife then maybe he’s already in Hell. God sometimes starts early.
