An Xmas Message From Satan - "Ignorance, My Poor Dear Americans, Will Not Save You"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Submitted by Charles Hugh-Smith of OfTwoMind blog,

The Devil pens a holiday letter.

Through means I am unable to disclose, I have obtained a copy of the Devil's Christmas letter. Yes, Satan too sends a Yule letter, and no, I was not on his mailing list. I think Satan's Holiday cheer should give us all pause.

"To my fallen angels Beelzebub, Lucifer and Leviathan, princes of Hell's demons, and to my minions, lackeys, toadies and sycophants on Earth:

Due to the high cost of postage, please accept this miserly digital version of my holiday missive.

As you know, this time of year usually finds me quite despondent, as the Prince of Peace's influence waxes most atrociously around his birthday. But this year I am in fine spirits, nay, let me even declare myself absolutely giddy, for the destruction of the United States of America by its own citizenry and government draws ever nearer.

Though my minions have long sown festering seeds of hate and disharmony in that now-benighted land, my favored weapons of destruction--leverage, debt, half-truths and endless, self-serving justifications for greed, sloth, lust, pride, envy, anger and gluttony--have wormed their way into the stricken heart of that Republic and are now the default setting of American culture.

My minions in the Federal Reserve - such loyal servants! - continue feeding an orgy of leverage and debt, spreading ruination under the false guise of prosperity. What a delicious irony, that the fools doomed to eternal damnation in my Empire believe themselves prosperous as they absorb the poison of exponentially rising leverage and debt.

My lackeys in the Central State have made a mockery of the rule of law, letting financial crimes go not just unpunished but rewarded. The blatant injustice that roams the land like a foul, slobbering beast--there are two sets of laws and two sets of books now, one for the financial Elites and their political toadies, and another one for the tax donkeys beneath them--this will eventually ignite the firestorm I seek.

American extravagance has surpassed even my highest expectations, as purveyors of luxury goods reap record profits, and the childish desire for instant gratification has become the unspoken ruler of the land. Convenience is now worshipped as a god, sitting triumphant beside entitlement, greed, indignation and willful ignorance.

Convenience is, as you all know, the name of a peculiarly slick slide into Hell.

One of my favorite sins, gluttony, is running amok, with half of the people groaning under their own weight, sickened and weakened. My loyal minions in the fast-food and packaged food industries have followed my plans to perfection, and my lackeys in the marketing and media have fueled the instant gratification and ignorance which insidiously undermine even the greatest empires.

Pride--oh, how the Americans excel at hubris and pride! The Federal Reserve chairperson, bless her doomed soul, has declared herself 100% confident about an economy that is nothing but a confidence game. Oh, what joy to hear her lies spoken with such confidence!

The mere thought of the word greed cause me to chuckle delightedly, as the U.S. excels as a haven for greed without bounds, a greed so boundless that the entire universe would be insufficient to satisfy its bankers, hedge fund managers, high-frequency traders, Imperial factotums and politicians. How happy I am to see their greed grease their way into Hell.

I feel like dancing a jig when I hear the unbridled sense of entitlement which has poisoned the American spirit. Yes, let greed and avarice be cloaked with rationalizations--"I was promised," "It's my right," "I deserve it"--it is wondrous indeed how my secret invention, "free money," debilitates once-independent souls.

Anger is now overflowing everywhere, building my empire with every thoughtless word. Politicians rage against each other, the people rage against the politicians, and behind the scenes my servants in the political action committees feed the anger with billions of dollars in campaign donations. How amusing to see the politicos lay claim to noble ideals even as they scramble on their knees to collect the millions tossed at their feet to do my bidding.

Oh yes, my bidding, for their greed, pride and anger are my bidding. By all means, politicians, do my work: give tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy, let financial crimes go unpunished, allow the financial Elites' looting to go unhindered, transfer the wealth earned by the citizens' sweat to the financial Elites when their trillion-dollar bets go bad--fuel the anger which will tear you from power, and tear the country apart.

 


This chart of rising wealth inequality warms my heart, for it will foment revolution as night follows day.

The nation bleeds itself with unwinnable wars, sacrificing its youth on the altar of endless war--how can I not rejoice at this orgy of death, destruction and sowing of hate? The feeble liars at the nation's helm print endless sums to fund war and to prop up vile tyrants, but offer nothing for libraries or literacy or the curing of malaria. How can I not rejoice at a nation which finds trillions for war and next to nothing to fight the diseases of the poor residents of former colonies, including that Prince of Disease, ignorance.

As for sloth--that millions are being paid to sit around watching television instead of being productive creates the perfect breeding ground for resentment, malice and envy. How perfect to pay people to sit at home and rot away, with only their discontent and despair for company.

As you know all too well, idle hands end up doing my piecework for free.

It was almost beyond my dreams to find the nation's wealth and politics so dominated by a tiny handful of wealthy financial plutocrats--they are doing my bidding without hindrance, though I see by their troubled sleep that they know where their greed and rationalizations are taking them. To channel the nation's wealth to a few hands--what better way to nurture envy and anger?

If ignorance were treasure, the American political class must be declared wealthier than Midas, for its ignorance and hubris have reached a pinnacle I can truly admire. Ensnared by their lust for power, blinded by their greed for fame and perquisites, they look no further than the next election cycle, dooming their nation to division, disharmony and the desolation of permanent conflict over the dwindling productive assets of this once-great nation.

The people cry out to be saved by the government, as if it was a Savior instead of a vast machine consolidating the wealth of the nation in the hands of the few at the expense of the many, "investing" it in corruption, parasitic financial schemes, military misadventures, Homeland "Security"--ha, isn't that a jewel, as the nation withers from within--and the unyielding oppression of the remaining productive members of society.

The leaders are themselves leaderless, blank, hollowed-out souls doing the bidding of their parasitic masters, focused only on keeping the corrupt and venal status quo together for a few more months, never looking out ten years. Political expediency is my favored tool, and it is now the default mode of the nation's corrupted political class.

I delight in that shortsightedness, that abject fear of change and transformation, that clinging to failure and pride, that refusal to face reality.

For the U.S.A. is now an Empire of Debt and Lies, its fraudulent financial system built on misrepresentations of risk and value, and its economy a con game based on illusory wealth, parasitic skimming, and government protection of privilege.

This adolescent desire to believe the lies, because in believing the lies then nothing need change--this might be my most powerful destructive tool.

A hunger for fantasy and illusion, a fear of adaptation, a childish demand for instant gratification--these are forces I can rely on to lead the once-great country to absolute ruin.

And here is the beautifully evil part, my minions--no external enemy is required. The Americans are destroying themselves with their reliance on leverage, debt, denial, half-truths and overflowing servings of the Seven Deadly Sins, all of which they have elevated to "assets" in their hopelessly twisted values. To be supremely unproductive, a churner of lies and financial trickery, is now the most rewarded and admired state in America.

The spiritual rot is now so deep and pervasive that the people no longer even recognize the decay--they have been lulled into a false belief that this culture of fraud, embezzlement, manipulations, propaganda and parasitic financial Elites has always held sway. This is precisely how a people act when they have lost their way, spiritually and morally: they elevate sins to virtues, and forget the lessons of their past.

And of course everyone claiming that there is no spiritual vacuum sucking the nation dry, that the status quo is simply "business as usual"--they are doing my work, too, for habituating to all that is corrupt and reprehensible, all that is lacking in integrity and honesty, this is doing my work most admirably.

Americans no longer hate me, they hate sacrifice, with a passion that enlivens my enthusiasm for their self-destruction.

How can I not be pleased this season? At long last, the destruction of the United States by its own citizens is close at hand. Give me ten years, minions, and I shall insure they will finally begin reaping what they have sown.

Ignorance, my poor dear Americans, will not save you, nor will your endless parade of excuses, justifications and rationalizations. Indeed, they are my weapons which you drive deeper into your nation's heart with every lie, every excuse, every frantic justification for your own entitlement.

I await 2016 with high expectations.

Most sincerely yours,
Satan

The Protocols for anyone that's interested says...

 

6. The people, under our guidance, have annihilated the aristocracy, who were their one 

and only defense and foster-mother for the sake of their own advantage which is 

inseparably bound up with the well-being of the people. Nowadays, with the destruction 

of the aristocracy, the people have fallen into the grips of merciless money-grinding 

scoundrels who have laid a pitiless and cruel yoke upon the necks of the workers. 

 

7. We appear on the scene as alleged saviours of the worker from this oppression when 

we propose to him to enter the ranks of our fighting forces - Socialists, Anarchists, 

Communists - to whom we always give support in accordance with an alleged brotherly 

rule (of the solidarity of all humanity) of our SOCIAL MASONRY. The aristocracy, 

which enjoyed by law the labor of the workers, was interested in seeing that the workers 

were well fed, healthy, and strong. We are interested in just the opposite - in the 

diminution, the KILLING OUT OF THE GOYIM. Our power is in the chronic shortness 

of food and physical weakness of the worker because by all that this implies he is made 

the slave of our will, and he will not find in his own authorities either strength or energy 

to set against our will. Hunger creates the right of capital to rule the worker more surely 

than it was given to the aristocracy by the legal authority of kings. 

 

8. By want and the envy and hatred which it engenders we shall move the mobs and with 

their hands we shall wipe out all those who hinder us on our way.

Stupidity is not caused by Satan but by people's decision to stop using common sense and avoid thinking with their own brains ! In the end, people get the ruler they deserve... every sigle time ! If Americans have something to reproach to their PTB, maybe they should look into a mirror first.

Stupidity and ignorance. Most still can’t differentiate.

 

We all born ignorant. Stupidity takes effort. A great example of stupidity is the opening of Creation Museum.

 

In ignorance your mind is open. Stupidity your mind is closed by all your biases and dogmas. Two great examples of dogmas are religion and nationalism. Another is racism. Karlus post above is a good example. 

 

Ignorance is a lack of enough knowledge. Stupidity lacks common sense. A great example of stupidity is when religious people have answers of how the world was created where scientists still struggling to find answers.

 

“Stupidity is not the lack of knowledge, but the illusion of having it.” — Grigore Iulian

 

So, Charles Hugh-Smith’s “Ignorance, My Poor Dear Americans, Will Not Save You" is wrong, because overcoming the lack of knowledge will not save you either. However, overcoming stupidity would improve your ability to sound much less ignorant………..While improving your ability to see things more clearly.

..."He knew these men, also, perfectly. They were men of aye business: very wealthy, and of great importance. He had made a point always of standing well in their esteem: in a business point of view, that is; strictly in a business point of view.

`How are you.' said one.

`How are you.' returned the other.

`Well.' said the first. `Old Scratch has got his own at last, hey.'

`So I am told,' returned the second. `Cold, isn't it.'

`Seasonable for Christmas time. You're not a skater, I suppose.'

`No. No. Something else to think of. Good morning.'

Not another word. That was their meeting, their conversation, and their parting.

Scrooge was at first inclined to be surprised that the Spirit should attach importance to conversations apparently so trivial; but feeling assured that they must have some hidden purpose, he set himself to consider what it was likely to be. They could scarcely be supposed to have any bearing on the death of Jacob, his old partner, for that was Past, and this Ghost's province was the Future. Nor could he think of any one immediately connected with himself, to whom he could apply them. But nothing doubting that to whomsoever they applied they had some latent moral for his own improvement, he resolved to treasure up every word he heard, and everything he saw; and especially to observe the shadow of himself when it appeared. For he had an expectation that the conduct of his future self would give him the clue he missed, and would render the solution of these riddles easy.

He looked about in that very place for his own image; but another man stood in his accustomed corner, and though the clock pointed to his usual time of day for being there, he saw no likeness of himself among the multitudes that poured in through the Porch. It gave him little surprise, however; for he had been revolving in his mind a change of life, and thought and hoped he saw his new-born resolutions carried out in this.

Quiet and dark, beside him stood the Phantom, with its outstretched hand. When he roused himself from his thoughtful quest, he fancied from the turn of the hand, and its situation in reference to himself, that the Unseen Eyes were looking at him keenly. It made him shudder, and feel very cold.

They left the busy scene, and went into an obscure part of the town, where Scrooge had never penetrated before, although he recognised its situation, and its bad repute. The ways were foul and narrow; the shops and houses wretched; the people half-naked, drunken, slipshod, ugly. Alleys and archways, like so many cesspools, disgorged their offences of smell, and dirt, and life, upon the straggling streets; and the whole quarter reeked with crime, with filth, and misery.

Far in this den of infamous resort, there was a low-browed, beetling shop, below a pent-house roof, where iron, old rags, bottles, bones, and greasy offal, were bought. Upon the floor within, were piled up heaps of rusty keys, nails, chains, hinges, files, scales, weights, and refuse iron of all kinds. Secrets that few would like to scrutinise were bred and hidden in mountains of unseemly rags, masses of corrupted fat, and sepulchres of bones. Sitting in among the wares he dealt in, by a charcoal stove, made of old bricks, was a grey-haired rascal, nearly seventy years of age; who had screened himself from the cold air without, by a frousy curtaining of miscellaneous tatters, hung upon a line; and smoked his pipe in all the luxury of calm retirement."

Quite the entertaining article. However, philosophically speaking, that was based upon insufficient sympathy for Satan.

The article itself continues to indulge in the Satanic Thinking based upon the dualities of false fundamental dichotomies and impossible ideals. As soon as we perceive human beings as separated from their environment and each other, then they necessarily live as gangs of robbers. The biggest and best organized gangs of robbers have become the bankster controlled governments. However, the deeper sources of that are due to the ways that the basic concept of SUBTRACTION necessarily leads to ROBBERY, with the systems of governments enforcing frauds by private banks becoming symbolic robberies:

For the U.S.A. is now an Empire of Debt and Lies, its fraudulent financial system built on misrepresentations of risk and value, and its economy a con game based on illusory wealth, parasitic skimming, and government protection of privilege. This adolescent desire to believe the lies, because in believing the lies then nothing need change--this might be my most powerful destructive tool.

In my view, Hugh-Smith is merely another of the typical kind of "controlled opposition" which is the most common kind of content published on Zero Hedge, as was described by Cognitive Dissonance as: "The absolute best controlled opposition is one that doesn't know they are controlled."

I outline some

basic theology:

Energy is Spirit,

Entropy is the scientific Satan.

The entropy equations in thermodynamics and information theory had arbitrary minus signs inserted, as some of the many ways that the philosophy of science engaged in series of compromises with the biggest bullies' bullshit world views. Hence, the meaning of the concept of entropy was reversed, while almost everyone continues to take that for granted. Similarly, that means that the ways that people misunderstand the concept of evil are quite pervasive and ubiquitous.

The results have become quite hyper-complicated, since what the biggest bullies have done is effectively negate their negations, by presenting subtraction of their subtractions. By those means, they are able to publicly present NEGATIVE AS IF POSITIVE. Therefore, the genuine solutions to the resulting problems must become negations of that negation of negations, or subtractions of the subtraction of subtractions. Money As Debt is Negative Capital, which destroys "free market capitalism." However, the banksters are able to publicly present that kind of negative "money" AS IF it were positive money, all of which takes place inside the overall context that money is measurement backed by murder, as the most abstract way that private property is based upon backing up claims with coercions, which privatization of the environment had its philosophical source in the attempts to privatize God.

EVERYONE, as soon as one perceives them as separated from the environment and each other, necessarily lives as entropic pumps of environmental energy flows, or as systems of organized lies operating robberies. Those who were the best at doing that developed the currently established systems of bankster controlled governments, operating through political economy based upon POLITICAL FUNDING ENFORCING FRAUDS.

However, the relatively few people who perceive that tend to continue to be stuck inside of perceiving the world through various DUALITIES, using false fundamental dichotomies, and therefore, promoting bogus "solutions" based upon impossible ideals, that always backfire badly, and actually cause the opposite to happen. That is because there is almost nothing which exists now but core of organized crime (bankster controlled governments), surrounded by various layers of controlled opposition groups (those whose "solutions" are still based upon Satanic Thinking, although they tend to not understand that they are doing that.)

From the point of view that Energy IS Spirit, everything that happens is already Perfect, inasmuch as Energy is always being conserved. However, the degree to which we have misunderstood the concept of entropy, by pretty well having totally inverted it as much as possible, also means that we have simultaneously reversed our understanding of evil.

Within that context, while the article above was entertaining and accurate, it nevertheless continued to be too superficial. Rather than continuing to rely upon the old-fashioned DUALITIES of false fundamental dichotomies, and hence bogus "solutions" based upon impossible ideals, we should rather start to use more UNITARY MECHANISMS. After one more fully understands how and why governments are necessarily the biggest forms of organized crime, controlled by the best organized gangsters, the banksters, the genuinely realistic resolutions of those real problems are the opposite of what the controlled opposition groups tend to promote.

Citizens are members of an organized crime gangs called their countries. The degree to which they do not understand that, because they have been conditioned to not want to understand that, is the degree to which they have degenerated into being Zombie Sheeple. Their plight is made even worse by the degree to which they are exhorted by the various controlled opposition groups, who are merely Black Sheeple, to go backwards to old-fashioned religions and ideologies, in order to follow old-fashioned impossible ideals to "solve" their problems continue to backfire badly, and cause the opposite to happen in the real world.

Meanwhile, the Vicious Wolves, and their more Domesticated Dogs, continue to be able to herd the masses of Zombie Sheeple, in the ways outlined by Hugh-Smith in the article above. However, he does not perceive the degree to which he continues to actually be controlled opposition, or another of the Black Sheeple, whose exhortations to the masses of Zombie Sheeple are actually repetitions of the repertoire of professional hypocrites.

I REPEAT the basic theology: Energy IS Spirit, and therefore, the Universe is already perfect, including the degree to which the biggest and best organized gangs of criminals have made and maintained the social pyramid systems of civilization that we are currently living inside, which are were the most expedient sets of solutions to chronic political problems inherent in the nature of life.

That hemp, which is the best plant on the planet for people, for food, fiber, fun and medicine, could be re-branded by politicians who are the banksters' puppets as "marijuana which is almost as bad as murder," was the simplest symbol and most extreme example of the degree to which the USA governments, and pretty well all of the rest of world's governments, are controlled by the same globalized gangs of criminals, i.e., Satan and his minions.

Meanwhile, useless ad hominem replies like the one above are merely further confirmation of the degree to which the world is overflowing with incompetent political idiots, who have nothing relevant to add to any relatively rational political discussions. Therefore, the article was quite correct in presuming that the established debt slavery systems, which have already generated numbers which are debt insanities, are therefore going to provoke death insanities, while the only thing which has postponed that from happening is the degree to which no sane people would want to start those death insanities happening ... but nevertheless, the inherent structure of the runaway systems of POLITICAL FUNDING ENFORCING FRAUDS must inevitably drive that to happen. As Satan says in the article above:

At long last, the destruction of the United States by its own citizens is close at hand. Give me ten years, minions, and I shall insure they will finally begin reaping what they have sown.

Whether it takes ten years, or longer, the basic mechanisms driving everything are the same, namely, greater and greater technologies, still primarily serving the interests of backing up lies with violence. The main sociopolitical threats that the USA faces are the loss of the status of the American Dollar as the global reserve currency. While that will seroiusly destablize the whole world, it will hit hardest upon the USA.

However, the much more important BIG PICTURE is that the industrial revolutions enabled the strip-mining of the natural resources of a fresh planet, which never had that happen before. EVERYTHING that the political economy did was built on being able to make more and more "money" out of nothing as debts, in order to "pay" for strip-mining the planet.     The eventual globalized consequences of the accumulating garbage and pollution enabled by that strip-mining will likely end up becoming the worst consequences. The vicious spirals of POLITICAL FUNDING ENFORCING FRAUDS enable the privatization of profits, along with the socialization of losses. Eventually, the accumulating socialized losses, especially the destruction of the natural world, could cause the extinction of the human species, as the "logical" result of civilization being controlled by backing up lies with violence, i.e., controlled by Satan and his minions. Fundamentally fraudulent financial accouting systems, which exist due to being able to successfully apply the methods of organized crime through the political processes, have resulted in civilization behaving in ways which have become runaway criminal insanities. Since it is politically impossible, within the established systems of POLITICAL FUNDING ENFORCING FRAUDS, to actually change those entrenched systems, there do not appear to be any feasible ways to prevent Satan and his minions continuing to "control" civilization to behave in criminally insane ways, that ultimately result in it committing collective suicide.

Although it may be theoretically possible to adapt to living within conditions that manifest after the limits of diminishing returns from having already high-graded civilization to hell, from a practical point of view, civilization will certainly continue to deliberately ignore that it was operating through fundamentally fraudulent accounting systems as much as possible, for as long as possible ... Which means that by the time that people may be forced to change, there will barely be any options left regarding how to adapt to having already strip-mined the planet's natural resources to exhaustion, leaving mostly garbage and pollution behind for future generations.

Of course, theoretically speaking, there were an abundance of creative alternatives, and there may well be more developed, however, the established systems of debt slavery have already made it practically impossible to do anything now except by creating more "money" out of nothing as debts to "pay" for doing those alternatives, while the problems have already become overwhelming levels of debt insanities, that have already been generated by the runaway debt slavery systems. Those who controlled those systems were able to apply their methods of the vicious spirals of POLITICAL FUNDING ENFORCING FRAUDS to favour all of the worst technologies to be developed, while most of the other better theoretically possible alternatives were deliberately suppressed.

Criminalizing cannabis, as a system of huge legalized lies, backed by lots of legalized violence, which was about 75% of the War on (some) Drugs, has been overtaken by the BIGGER LIES that started the War on Terror, which has become so many orders of magnitude worse that the War on Drugs is no longer needed by the ruling classes to control those that they rule over. Instead, the bullshit manifestation of mainstream morons' "legalizing marijuana" is demonstrating how there is no reasonable hope for the foreseeable finite future of either America or the world. The original Pot Prohibition based on Reefer Madness is changing NOT on the basis of more HEMP TRUTH, but rather, on the basis of compromises with the same old huge lies, so that the regulation and taxation of "legalized marijuana" is becoming Pot Prohibition 2.0, based on Reefer Madness 2.0. Cultivating more cannabis would be one of the most "Green" things we could do. However, that continues to suffer from the effects of decades of complete criminalization, as well as generally suffers from how every industry has been warped by the wishes of the oligarchical plutocracy wanting to centralize their controls, and especially, their control over everything by being able to create the public "money" supply as debts, which debt slavery systems have already become such extreme levels of debt insanities, that it is extremely difficult to imagine where the "credit" could come from to enable the cultivation of cannabis to sufficiently recover, particularly because it will likely continue to suffer under the burden of ridiculous regulations and taxation, etc. ...

Of course, the same thing would apply to any "monetary system reforms." Those have not happened in any other ways than done by professional hypocrites. There are no good grounds to doubt that the currently established social systems are too terminally sick and insane to recover. Rather, that those systems have become electronic frauds, backed by atomic bombs, instead of still merely being paper frauds backed by gunpowder weapons, which means that when those systems destroy themselves, their destruction will then become trillions of times worse than we can currently comprehend or fully imagine.

Ironically, that appears to be the only thing that is keeping the established systems still going, namely, that the psychotic breakdowns and crazy collapses into chaos of globalized systems of electronic frauds backed by atomic bombs will correspond to series of social storms blowing through whose severity will far surpass anything that previously happened in human history. The ability to continue to enforce frauds pumped up with technologies that have become trillions of times more powerful and capable will finally result in their insane self-destruction being done at similar levels of magnitude.

Whenever I read useless ad hominem replies like the one above, that tends to confirm my view that there are no reasonable hopes for the finite future of the sociopolitical systems which have become so totally dominated by Satan and his minions, who are surrounded mostly by the masses of muppets who they have been able to deceive. Paradoxically, those are the main factors that are keeping those systems going, because when those finally blow, as those surely will, since all the safety valves in those pressure cookers have been welded shut, those will blow themselves up in astronomically amplified ways, in proportion to how much more criminally insane electronic frauds backed by atomic bombs are compared to paper frauds backed by gunpowder weapons.

From the perspective of some anthropomorphic Satan, who is supposed to enjoy evil, such an imaginary character would be quite delighted that the most probable futures are for the majority of human beings to be mass murdered in the foreseeable future, due to fundamentally fraudulent financial accounting systems making "money" out of nothing as debts, in order to "pay" for strip-mining the natural resources of the planet, to the point where that exponential growth has overshot so seriously that there is nothing else left which appears to be realistically possible other than the miserable mass murders of the majority of the human population, while the rest of the overall consequences of the runaway destruction of the natural world may eventually result in the extinction of the human species.

That civilization is controlled by fundamentally fraudulent financial accounting systems will eventually have far, far worse consequences than those outlined in the article above. Meanwhile, there are no good grounds to expect that there will be enough of a series of technological miracles, surpassed by political miracles, to enable a technologically based civilization to change by adapting enough to survive the degree to which it is being controlled by backing up lies with violence, in ways which have been magnified by many orders of magnitude more than ever before in human history.

Satan (Saturn) and Lucifer (the moon) work together to further enslave the population of the planet with fiat money so the rothchild reptiles et al can end up with it all.

Your religions have no power over planets do they?

Isn't 'Christ' the sun 'god' anyway? Or is he Saturn with his halo rings? Is the new sun god more powerful than the sun?

Do these three have something to do with each other?

I would say they do.

Humanity is a slave race and this planet is a prison planet.

The population is on lockdown, nobody gets off alive.

Their plan is almost complete. Hell is empty. Heaven seems to be full of beings singing kumbaya all the time so they aren't much help either it seems.

Oh well. 5,000 or 50,000 years of reincarnation everyone gets what they deserve.

Makes me feel good. The only thing that does about this insanity.

Do not forget, stay out of debt.

Think twice, and take this good advice from me

Guard that old solvency!

There's just one other thing

You ought to do-

To thine own self be true!"

I realize Smith's post is a metaphorical satire, but just a couple of theological points:

1) Notwithstanding the anagram, the nemesis of Santa is not Satan, it is Krampus.

2) Notwithstanding popular imagery, hell is not the Devil's nor his angels' empire. Hell is where they will be -- and I quote -- "tormented day and night forever and ever."

Carry on....

..."It was a long night, if it were only a night; but Scrooge had his doubts of this, because the Christmas Holidays appeared to be condensed into the space of time they passed together. It was strange, too, that while Scrooge remained unaltered in his outward form, the Ghost grew older, clearly older. Scrooge had observed this change, but never spoke of it, until they left a children's Twelfth Night party, when, looking at the Spirit as they stood together in an open place, he noticed that its hair was grey.

`Are spirits' lives so short.' asked Scrooge.

`My life upon this globe, is very brief,' replied the Ghost. `It ends to-night.'

`To-night.' cried Scrooge.

`To-night at midnight. Hark. The time is drawing near.'

The chimes were ringing the three quarters past eleven at that moment.

`Forgive me if I am not justified in what I ask,' said Scrooge, looking intently at the Spirit's robe,' but I see something strange, and not belonging to yourself, protruding from your skirts. Is it a foot or a claw.'

`It might be a claw, for the flesh there is upon it,' was the Spirit's sorrowful reply. `Look here.'

From the foldings of its robe, it brought two children; wretched, abject, frightful, hideous, miserable. They knelt down at its feet, and clung upon the outside of its garment.

`Oh, Man. look here. Look, look, down here.' exclaimed the Ghost.

They were a boy and a girl. Yellow, meagre, ragged, scowling, wolfish; but prostrate, too, in their humility. Where graceful youth should have filled their features out, and touched them with its freshest tints, a stale and shrivelled hand, like that of age, had pinched, and twisted them, and pulled them into shreds. Where angels might have sat enthroned, devils lurked, and glared out menacing. No change, no degradation, no perversion of humanity, in any grade, through all the mysteries of wonderful creation, has monsters half so horrible and dread.

Scrooge started back, appalled. Having them shown to him in this way, he tried to say they were fine children, but the words choked themselves, rather than be parties to a lie of such enormous magnitude.

`Spirit. are they yours.' Scrooge could say no more.

`They are Man's,' said the Spirit, looking down upon them. `And they cling to me, appealing from their fathers. This boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want. Beware them both, and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy, for on his brow I see that written which is Doom, unless the writing be erased. Deny it.' cried the Spirit, stretching out its hand towards the city. `Slander those who tell it ye. Admit it for your factious purposes, and make it worse. And abide the end.'

`Have they no refuge or resource.' cried Scrooge.

`Are there no prisons.' said the Spirit, turning on him for the last time with his own words. `Are there no workhouses.' The bell struck twelve.

Scrooge looked about him for the Ghost, and saw it not. As the last stroke ceased to vibrate, he remembered the prediction of old Jacob Marley, and lifting up his eyes, beheld a solemn Phantom, draped and hooded, coming, like a mist along the ground, towards him."

We are awaiting the spark you devilish, evil cunt.  Then you get to meet folk like me.

The trepidation I had some years back is gone my 'Hades' worshiping friend.  The stiff upper lip smiles while wanting a bit of what you have got, cunt.

The unspoken fear of the central banks is that an economic bankruptcy alliance will form, particularly in South America. With Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela all bankrupt were they to issue a joint statement that they were declaring all external debts null and void the system would grind to a halt almost overnight. Soon would follow 90% of Africa and the rest of Latin America. A global financial reset could be forced.

As of yet I don't think they understand the power they hold. No matter how it is sliced, from left, right or otherwise the only alternative a declaring ALL debt void is a new dark ages. How long it would last would depend on how quickly the have nots drag the bankers and their political puppets to the gallows.

Absolutely brilliant piece of work. Better that Mephisto's monologue from Faust or Adso's delirious dream from The Name of the Rose. At first, I read the article like any other article; as I was reading I felt the the power of its words exploding. I started reading it again but with loud voice, with theatrical intonations, imagining a Satan character on a stage, facing its public in the dark.

If I was young again, in the high school or a student, I would have performed this piece at one of the drama shows
