POSSIBLY THE LAST HURRAH!!

As most of you know, Farnazhas used many aliases on this blog. I (and others) have presented evidence to this activity many, many times but to no avail as the management of this blog refuses to take action. Instead they have banned my comments on just about every column whereas Farnaz and her "friends" continue to violate blog rules.

The reality of Islam also appears not to faze the On Faith management even though the horror and terror of Islam is taken directly from the koran, the worst book ever written. Such reminders of horror and terror fill the pages of the Washington Post every day but those who criticize this so called "religion" also get banned from commenting on columns written by Islamics or those working for Georgetown U who sold its soul to Islam for $20 million. How sad and disturbing to have this happen in a supposedly free country.

And please review the salaries and financial dealings of many of the guests who have founded non-profits. Said salaries are on-line via the IRS 990 forms. My expose of these salaries and financial dealings also apparently was another reason for my banning. Unbelievable for a newspaper in a free country to limit free speech and truth!!!

Below is a partial list of aliases currently or partially used by Farnaz. No doubt this will be my last note on this blog so pay attention as this will note will soon disappear:

Schaum
Carstonio
Zebra4
Whistling(one of Farnaz's strawmen)

Sometimes Jehovah Witnesses are just too aggressive and persistent.

Two cases in point:

1. A fellow English teacher I worked with here in Mexico and I enjoyed daily conversations in the part over a sack lunch. I was interested in what they believed and not what people who hate them tell me they believe. It was all really interesting until one day I said, "Candace, let's talk about something else over lunch. I'm starting to feel pushed by your conversations about the Bible." That was the end of our lunches and our "friendship"

2. Jehovah Witnesses from the US and Canada discovered one of my Mexican students now spoke fluent English. They would not leave him or his family alone week after week. We finally had to post a note on the door that said, "Dear Jehovah Witnesses. The family here is Catholic. Please respect their beliefs as you would have them respect yours."

As for Mormon Missionaries, I usually pop open a beer and offer them some. If that doesn't work, I ask them to explain how people of color became that way as fence-sitters in the war between God and Satan in the pre-existence or from the "curse of Cain"

BRUCE R. McCONKIE of the Quorum of the 12 Apostles

The negroes are not equal with other races when the receipt of certain spiritual blessings are concerned..."

...As a result of his rebellion, Cain was cursed with a dark skin; he became the father of the negroes"
"Cain Ham, and the whole negro race have _ cursed with a black skin, the mark of Cain, so they can be identified as a caste apart, a people with whom the other descendants of Adam should not intermarry."

Or I ask them if my Mexican girlfriend will become "white and delightsome" if she joins "The Church" from the original version of their Scriptures in Nephi (30:6) that was conveniently changed to "pure and delightsome" in 1981 when NCAA basketball teams would no longer play against BYU.

That usually does the trick.

As noted by another poster, the local Kingdom Halls maintain a do-not-call list, so the first time a JW bothers you can be the last. I don't know if the local Stakes do the same for when the young men in white shirts and black ties come calling.

A lot of people I know spend significant time talking about the significant time they spend devising elaborate scenarioes to try and blow the minds of the Witnesses next time they come calling. I must admit, I find closing the door again (with or without saying anything) is the most efficient way of dealing with their calls.

The guys selling siding or windows door to door are harder to shake. Though the lady in Berlin back in 1973 who knocked on the door despite the picture of Aleister Crowley with "Tue was du willst soll sei das Ganze des Gesetzes" written above it that I had hanging there obviously showed commitment above and beyond the norm.

When the JWs come to your door, tell them, "I've read your material. I think you're wrong, I don't believe it. Tell your elder to put this house on your no-call list, because we've heard your message and we reject it." They'll never bother you again.

"The JW's seem to be as harmless a group of nuts as I've encountered."

They are as long as they remain small. If a significant proportion of our population became convinced that Armageddon was coming within their lifetimes, I think the societal decay could become a self-fulling prophesy.

The JW's seem to be as harmless a group of nuts as I've encountered.
I'm working overseas right now in an eastern european country. Last november I heard a knock at my front door, and wtf it was a couple of JW's! I mean here in Bulgaria, one of the most faith-free countries I've ever been to, and the JW's are bothering me here!

Will wonders never cease. By the way, I agree with the ACLU's support of these weirdos and their right to bother people. Like lepidopteryx, when I must deal with them I usually find something vaguely obscene to say or do .. just accidentally mind you.

To reiterate, it is all about the founders of the major religions and their favorite "tinker bell(s)" aka angel.

Joe Smith had his Moroni.

Jehovah Witnesses have their Jesus /Michael the archangel, the first angelic being created by God;

Mohammed had his Gabriel (this "tinkerer" got around).

Jesus and his family had Michael, Gabriel, and Satan, the latter being a modern day demon of the demented.

The Abraham-Moses myths had their Angel of Death and other "no-namers" to do their dirty work or other assorted duties.

Contemporary biblical and religious scholars have relegated these "pretty wingie thingies" to the myth pile. We should do the same to include deleting all references to them in our religious operating manuals. Doing this will eliminate the prophet/profit/prophecy status of these founders and put them where they belong as simple humans just like the rest of us.

Yeah, they have the constitutional right to spew crap.

When burglars find that impersonating them is an effective cover to identify empty houses, I wonder what steps will be considered acceptable law enforcement.

When I see that the person on the other side of the door is holding a Bible or copies of The Watchtower, or wearing a name tag identifying them as Elder Whosit, I answer the door naked.
