Sunshine Go Away Today

You may have heard about this crazy scheme, or one like it:

https://www.zerohedge.com/weather/uk-greenlight-experiments-dim-sun-bid-stop-global-warming

Increasing the planet's albedo (the fraction of reflected sunlight) this way might cool the planet, but it also will decrease the output of all those solar cells we've been installing.

And by the way, the more solar arrays we have the lower the planet's albedo will be.

Someone needs to calculate how much these effects cancel out each other before we do any more nutty experiments.

Someone also needs to calculate whether increasing the number of solar arrays will increase or decrease the Earth's temperature relative to the change expected from the elimination of the fossil fuel burning they replace. If that calc goes the wrong way, the whole "green energy" movement is BS. We'd still heat up AND we'd have less plant and animal food to eat.

I'd do the calcs myself, but my math skills have been degrading for the past 30 years.

If what Musk claims is correct, we need to do my suggested calculations NOW, not after we destroy all other forms of energy generation:

Warfare Or Mechanized Destruction ???

Food for thought:

The Israeli military has increasingly opted to deploy an unmanned version of Caterpillar’s D9 bulldozers to a number of battlefields. The remotely operated systems allows the IDF to flatten areas without risking additional troops.

The longer such conflicts go on, the more they look like scenes from The Terminator.

At least things have not yet crossed what I believe to be one of the ultimate thresholds of robotic warfare:

But I would not be surprised if this were to happen sometime in the near future, especially if the Russia-Ukraine war keeps heating up.

G-d help us all !!!

Pale Blue Dot

Everyone should watch this video at least once; several times would be better:

An Easter Insurrection ???

There is a possibility that President Trump may invoke the Insurrection Act today. You can learn about it here:

https://x.com/BrainStorm_Joe/status/1913256129989075347

One of the reasons he might do such a thing can be found here:

https://x.com/bennyjohnson/status/1913298101915238458

And by sheer coincidence (?), today is Hitler's birthday.

At least one good thing could come of it - we could finally hold the real assassins and insurrectionists accountable.

Wouldn't that be a fine kettle of fish?

What Would Jesus Do ???

Here is a very thought-provoking essay on how Christianity fits into the events of today's world:

https://www.theamericanconservative.com/what-would-jesus-do/

I believe this is all a test, and many of us are failing.

For those of you who agree with me, consider the implications of this other essay:

Things are seldom exactly what they seem.

All Eyes On Jerusalem

Why Was Abraham Lincoln Shot ???

Here is an interesting perspective on the death of Abraham Lincoln:

https://www.dailysignal.com/2025/04/14/lincoln-was-a-threat-to-democracy/

The Civil War ended on Palm Sunday.

Lincoln was shot on Good Friday.

With those two facts in mind, please consider this other perspective on the death of Lincoln which was written in 2013:

https://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2013/02/was-abe-lincoln-apollyon.html

For a long time, I have had the feeling that the United States of America is an engine created by The Founders for the purpose of facilitating the Biblical End Times. The untimely death of Lincoln and the murder of JFK seem to me to support that theory. You can read how JFK's murder fits in here:

https://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2013/11/the-ritual-killing-of-john-fitzgerald.html

If you consider what is now happening in the Holy Land together with Trump's over-the-top support for Israel from a purely BIBLICAL (New Testament) perspective, I think you'll see what I mean.

If not, no harm done. In the US we're all free to believe what we wish, right?

No matter what YOU believe, pray hard and DO NOT take the Mark of the Beast. Armageddon may be closer than you think.

The REAL Choices We Face

Somehow this pronouncement seems completely out of sync with the "peace" and "efficiency" promises of the Trump regime:

https://news.antiwar.com/2025/04/07/hegseth-says-pentagon-will-get-its-first-1-trillion-budget/

Here are the REAL choices we face:

• A peace which may be humiliating, or a war which WILL be devastating
• An economic recession, or monetary hyperinflation

Which do YOU prefer?

Swastikids ???

In an apparent counter to the AfD and Elon Musk, Germans will be getting their kids ready for war again:

https://www.rt.com/news/615355-germany-prepare-children-war/

Hmmm ... WW1, WW2, ColdWar1, and now the phony Russian "invasion" of the EU - how many times are the Germans going to allow themselves to be stooges for the UK and the US?

Didn't they learn ANYTHING from the last disasters we suckered them into?

Medical Manslaughter

Here is a report concerning the outcome of a relatively common practice:

https://www.globalresearch.ca/baby-dies-after-receiving-6-shots-12-vaccines/5883208

I fail to see how this could be anything other than medical manslaughter.

What do YOU think?

Bombing Iran ???

Here is a video describing one possible way Trump could attack Iran:

https://youtu.be/dn83i2RQI48

This is truly insane. If he does this he should be impeached.

The Trump Tariff Trade

Has anyone checked to see how many people shorted the market in anticipation of Trump's tariff announcement?

If any Republicans did, I'm sure there will be howls of complaining.

If any Democrats did, I'm sure they did nothing illegal.

If nobody did, they missed the opportunity of a lifetime.

Why The Swamp May NEVER Be Drained

I suggest you read the essay found linked beneath this photo:

https://www.kunstler.com/p/you-wouldnt-want-to-be-him-on-that

If what Kunstler suggests is true, it will be almost impossible for Trump to implement his agenda, without a radical remaking of our judicial system ... and I don't think Trump has the horsepower to do that.

Now I'm starting to understand why the Dems didn't try all that hard to keep Trump out of office. As long as they can sabotage his actions, they can make it seem like he is either crazy or incompetent.

And many people already think he's both.

Update - 4/7/2025

Apparently it's not just the judicial system that is out to get Trump:

An AI-Assisted Antichrist ???

Here is an amplification of something I have written about before.

When we enter the biblical End Times, a charlatan whom we call the Antichrist will tell the inhabitants of the Earth they do not deserve the punishments which G-d is inflicting on humanity and will tell them he will save those who worship him:

• He will promise to heal the sick
• He will promise to end war
• He will promise to feed the hungry
• He will promise to make us immortal

Yet, for most of human history those who have aspired to be (or to help) the Antichrist have never been able to deliver on those promises. Such powers have been out of their reach ... until now.

You may have noticed that the demigods and oracles of AI and Big Tech have been bragging about their recent and future achievements. These links will take you to essays/reports which discuss some of their "miracles":

(1) AI is enabling a broad revolution in healthcare, which is certainly anticipated to heal the sick:

https://scheerpost.com/2025/01/14/the-cdc-palantir-and-the-ai-healthcare-revolution/

(2) AI also is driving the rise of a new military-industrial complex, whose goal is to finally put an end to war:

https://scheerpost.com/2025/02/10/a-new-military-industrial-complex-arises/

(3) Additionally AI promises to eliminate world hunger:

https://www.localfutures.org/bill-gates-has-radical-plans-to-change-our-food-whats-on-the-menu/

(4) And last, but not least, AI-assisted immortality is right around the corner:

https://nypost.com/2023/03/29/immortality-is-attainable-by-2030-google-scientist/

Messrs. Thiel, Luckey, Gates, and Kurzweil may not actually dream of being the Antichrist (or of helping him come to power), but they definitely seem to me to be on such a path.

On the other hand, according to this next essay the lords of Silicon Valley are encouraging their non-believing peers to embrace Christianity. Ordinarily, I would look favorably on such a thing. But being a skeptic at heart, I also know that Satan is in the process of deceiving the whole world ... just like he always has since the beginning of time:

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/christianity-was-borderline-illegal-in-silicon-valley-now-its-the-new-religion

I have a very hard time finding anything "Christian" in what the AI/robotics/singularity crowd has been preaching. What bothers me the most about the above developments is that they may cause the unwitting to lose faith in the true Gospel. Should the Antichrist be able to seemingly prove using the latest digital tools that he can do things Jesus hasn't duplicated for the past two thousand years, how many people do you suppose will desert Christianity in favor of this new religion? (And in my opinion, that's exactly what it is - a new religion).

I think the answer to that question is "many", especially because the Antichrist has already promised he will KILL all those who do not take the mark of the beast and worship him. That makes him especially hard to resist.

And that is not what I would call a good outcome.

Well, well, well - looks like someone else has similar concerns:

I think more people will soon ask the same questions, such as who will it be and when will they appear. If you'd like some background before the day comes, search this blog. Their name might even be found on these pages.
