Old enough to remember whole years in which I barely thought about the American president.

You see I don't believe all that tosh.

However, I am aware that not only are there people who do, but that they are capable of evil.

It's why I would always advise anyone to be careful about dabbling in the occult arts. Not because they aren't a load of bollocks. But because it can bring you into contact with people who are less sceptical and more motivated.

I don't believe in evil.

Unless jumping over busses on a motorbike.

There is one I will no longer engage with. Nor will I post on that posters threads. That poster can rattle about in their own self made echo chamber.

Not many others left on the "specialised" threads really.

Snap! I ignore both threads and poster now.
Me learn fast!
Actually, there's a Caribbean insult that says:

Be like a tree and leave!

which is particularly apt in this instance.

Invasion of the Vatican City shortly?

It's full of sacramental oil. Just saying, seeing that Trump can't distinguish between wind turbines and windmills.

They'd probably invade Luxembourg in error.

I mentioned in a post above about a glitch in the matrix. That the web is a bit less webby. It is rather subjective and anecdotal of course.

As an example though, looking for the Jesus image, I got a few results, then the att screen clip on page 4. Someone is taking the Turds blockade threat very seriously indeed.

Wasn’t there someone at The Pentagon (other than Hogsbreath I mean) who was caught telling a prayer meeting that Trump was sent by God to usher in The End Times and bring forth Armageddon?

My mum is a JW - I’ve heard a lot of the stuff from Revelations!

I heard of Trump allegedly being the harbinger of end times. I was slightly confused - in a different way - as I thought Satan sent someone/arrived himself, and the horsemen then came to resolve this - so I was wondering if they actually were thinking Trump was Satan’s progeny in some way.
I’m probably getting mixed up with the Omen that scared me in a fun way as a teen. We did Revelations at school - and I mainly remember it was thought John liked a bit of opium in his exile and JWs shouldn’t really base their religious thought on this - I think our RE teacher can’t have cared for JWs but if I recall correctly she was a Methodist.

This - omen film and school - are way back in the mists of time so I could be talking absolute codswallop but I feel sometimes I live in a world full of it anyway so it’s hard to know if I ever remember or understand things well!

This fella, in the article below, is in Beijing. Arrived yesterday.

A visit. It does not appear official, because Spanish PM Sanchez is doing that just now.

Just as western media reports that Gulf states are having a re-think re the US.

UAE leader names his son as Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi | CNN

The leader of the United Arab Emirates on Wednesday named his eldest son as crown prince of Abu Dhabi and his likely successor as president of the second biggest Arab economy.

Accepting the concept of good and evil is a core tenet of what we would call "western civilisation". It's derived from Christianity but is baked into our entire way of thinking.

Also not believing in something is not the same as it not existing.

I am not having much luck finding out about the UN sanctions against Iran. and if it includes oil. My web has had a glitch in the matrix. So it appears to be a bit less "webby" today.

Defo UN sanctions on nuke stuff. Oil...hmm .. ironically tied to the JCPOA it appears.

I think the UN sanctions on the oil were lifted under the JCPOA. And there is a "snapback" clause in that that allows signatories to reimpose sanctions for noncompliance to the JCPOA. UK and EU enacted that snapback last year I think, US 2018 under Trump, but that only affects them. So they can stop their own buyers from buying it ? Not sure.

Ahh, here we go. I won't post links cos not good sites. It looks like the oil itself was not sanctioned, but the shipping / financial etc was.

So the actual oil was never UN sanctioned. They can sell it, and legal to buy it, but the shipping/finance etc is controlled. Iran can't tanker it out, but it is unclear to me if other nations can.

I might have to sit this out. I am getting hardly any web results, and those I do get have a very firm "angle". But maybe some starting points above.

Usual disclaimer re Iran. My worry is that Trump is holding the world to ransom here, especially Asia.

I am glitchy where I am too.

I wonder...

Justdancevance · 13/04/2026 13:49

Iran called America ‘The Great Satan’ seems rather an apt description of Trump.

Every pronouncement makes him sound more and more unwell.

I know all that. It's a concept I don't believe in, just as I know of the concept of Gods, but I don't believe in any of them.

I would even say evil does not exist, just as I say gods do not exist.

Imagine being a journalist, reporting on the war seriously. Imagine being in a country being bombed. Imagine almost any scenario on earth, and the main player posts this. And in this case, near everyone is affected by this war.

Except for that Greenland fella with the MAGA hat, sitting at the dock waiting for a hospital ship. He might not be affected.

The guy in the bed looks like... Epstein!

We'd have to look at definitions.

I'm happy to accept that in the absence of humans to observe it, there is no such thing as evil. However it's hard to think with the noise of all these falling trees.

Wait until he finds how much pomp and gold the papacy surround themselves with. Maybe the next president will be announced through white smoke from the new ballroom...

Evil and good distinction could be attributed to Marmite. I know Marmite is good.

Are you talking about religion? - including Jedi in this.

What has religion ever had to do with trying explain the universe ? That's science.

Religion is just there to keep the masses in their place.

Toast + marmite + cheese + 2 mins under grill is an occasional treat.

That's a great statement, calling out the lack of respect, even if the word "free" might be doing some heavy lifting.
