POPSWiccan man kills girlfriend because she's a "warlock" Something that I have warned fellow Wiccans and pagan for years about. The more widespread our beliefs become, the more loons will come into the percentage. Yes, there are people who will call themselves Wiccan and/or pagan who will commit crimes under that banner.

POPS Progressivism/Liberalism is Heresy
Hitler was a pagan false Christ who made his dark pact with Wotan. Karl Marx, Father of Scientific Socialism and the Communist Manifesto can best be understood by his demonic envy of God and the Ninth Commandment, “Thou Shalt Not Covet.” Marx made his dark pact with Lucifer in his various Luciferian poems and his play, Oulanem. Lenin, whose master was Marx, was another psychopath and false Christ. He, like Hitler and Woodrow Wilson, outwardly denied his god-complex while doing nothing to prevent his divinization. Stalin"another psychopath" one described by his daughter Svetlana as possessed by a demon"also outwardly denied his god-complex while doing everything possible to promote it. Obama, a Marxist/Progressive and disciple of the evil Machiavelli who advised his power-hungry disciples to, “Pretend to be righteous in order to do whatever you want,” yearns to follow in the footsteps of the ‘false Christs’ briefly detailed above. With help from a worshipful media,

POPSCoexist? * C wants to kill E, X, T, and (by implication) O. If they achieved the world they wanted, I and S would also no longer exist. * O doesn’t allow for effective resistance or defeat of C. * E stands in direct opposition to C, X, and T, and accuses those who speak against them of hate speech. Also, they’re trying to edge X and T out of public schools in favor of their own agenda. (They’re afraid C will be offended, so they get less trouble.) E is actually very, very intolerant. * X’s existence is threatened not only by C but also by O, who invariably supports C over X. * I and S are statistically insignificant and are mainly on there to complete the bumper sticker. * T is who the bumper sticker is really arguing against, but poses no physical threat to any of the others. Historically, T has brought about more tolerance– “coexistence” if you will– than any other movement. But the kind of “coexistence” the people who make this sticker envision is one where at

POPSGlobal Warming or Global Cooling It Is Ignorant to Deny the Influence of People In Current Events
I really suspect people simply don’t get, “nature will continue to thrive” because nature is as much maybe more so part of this earth than humans. It is we who have to change our beliefs about nature and the earth and learn how to work with it. At the cost of offending a number of Christians I am going to relate an insight that I had fairly recently around religion. Looking at the history of Christian religion and how it came to power from the Romans persecuting the early Christians, to the Romans embracing the religion. All that really happened was that they superimposed their religious festivals onto existing pagan festivals, but killed the pagans, like they did the early Christians, like Mao Tse Tung did with any religion, like the invading Spanish did in the Sth Americas. And we have the number of the beast 666. For many years there was this subtle play through my awareness from all the Christian (Muslims are not off the hook either, nor are Jews) upbringing I had been expose

POPSObamaCare's Rationed Death and The Death of Representative Republic ..... and the parties who are going to be assaulted first are the elderly who will be denied care in nursing homes, hospices and doctors visits and told to just go climb on an ice sheet and float to their death for the good of the village as the Inuit's did long ago. That is what awaits Americans as every American is going to need care sooner or later, and for those who think that the rich will get care, the patricians had better learn a lesson of fact, that when the system breaks down, as government is bankrupt, then places like the Mayo Clinic are not developing advanced treatments for the rich, and the rich people find out in 5 years that they too are being left to die. Americans will now be made criminals in not paying into this butcher system and this blogger will refuse to be a part of any system as this. Oddly if Keith Olbermann holds his moral ground, we will be in an Obama concentration camp charged with the same crimes of failure to hand over our money to a

POPSPagans Botch Winter Solstice Celebration A crowd of hundreds of polytheists showed up at Stonehenge at the crack of dawn in freezing temperatures to celebrate the winter solstice, the most important pagan holiday of the year. Unfortunately, they were a day early. The Gods did not take pity on them, however, and Zeus has vowed to smite those that put their ignorance regarding their "religion" on display for all to see...

POPSA Christmas Day Sermon 1758: Christmas a "Superstitious" Custom
They preached-up "liberty" from this custom! This renowned Presbyterian pastor just prior to the American Revolution demonstrates the "superstition" of Christmas, while preaching about the incarnation or nativity of Christ, entirely different than is done today. He expands: Chrysostom, who lived in the fourth century, has these words, “It is not yet ten years, since this day, that is, Christmas, was plainly known to us ;” and he observes, the custom was brought to Constantinople from Rome. Now since this day was not religiously observed in the church in the first and purest ages, but was introduced as superstitions increased, and Christianity began to degenerate very fast into popery; ought not we to imitate the purity of these primitive times, and retain none of the superstitious observances of more corrupt ages? 18th century American society also did not commonly employ decorated trees (a pagan custom) if they did observe Christmas.

POPSHow the Nazis reinvented Christmas and cast the Führer as the Messiah The exhibition contains selected items from a vast private collection of Nazi Christmas memorabilia, including swastika and Nazi SS tree decorations, Aryan department store catalogues featuring presents for boys – toy Nazi tanks, fighter planes and machine guns – and music for carols that have been stripped of their Christian content. "The baby Jesus was Jewish. This was both a problem and a provocation for the Nazis," explained Judith Breuer, who organised the exhibition using the items she and her mother collected at flea markets over 30 years. "The most popular Christian festival of the year did not fit in with their racist ideology. They had to react and they did so by trying to make it less Christian."

POPSHappy Birfday, Charles Dickens' "Christmas Carol" more: Interestingly, there is no mention of the following in Dickens' A Christmas Carol: -Christmas tree -wrapped gifts -Anything related to The Nativity (wise men, baby Jesus), although there are plenty of homeless parents all through Dickens' works. While such values as charity, family, and universal goodwill certainly fall well within the Christian tradition, the book is not explicitly Christian much beyond the wish that "God bless us, everyone." Actually, that feels quite Anglican. ;-) There is no mention of Santa Claus per se, but the Ghost of Christmas Present is a big Oðin-like viking spirit, in a green fur-trimmed robe, bare chested and hearty. You know GoCP is going to the holiday swingers party once he drops off Scrooge.[/quote[

POPS"When Same-Sex Marriage Was a Christian Rite "
more (at source): Legend says that Bacchus appeared to the dying Sergius as an angel, telling him to be brave because they would soon be reunited in heaven. While the pairing of saints, particularly in the early Christian church, was not unusual, the association of these two men was regarded as particularly intimate. Severus, the Patriarch of Antioch (AD 512 - 518) explained that, "we should not separate in speech they who were joined in life". This is not a case of simple "adelphopoiia." In the definitive 10th century account of their lives, St. Sergius is openly celebrated as the "sweet companion and lover" of St. Bacchus. Sergius and Bacchus's close relationship has led many modern scholars to believe they were lovers. But the most compelling evidence for this view is that the oldest text of their martyrology, written in New Testament Greek describes them as "erastai,” or "lovers". In other words, they were a male homosexual couple. Their orientation and rel

POPSKrampus Runs: Harmless fun, or mysogynist assault? This year the Krampus debate intensified when a nine-year-old was set upon by three young Krampuses and so was so traumatized that she was reportedly afraid to return to school... The incident has heated the annual Krampus debate, with each camp growing increasingly shrill. One side holds that the "Krampus runs," as the random assaults are called, are good clean fun, the sort of local color that makes Salzburg charming and quaint, that Krampuses can be avoided by keeping off the streets between four and eight p.m., and that, in fact, most women enjoy being knocked around a bit by these burly beasts. The other side decries these assaults as blatantly sexist, misogynist exercises that have no place in modern society. "It is the only place in Europe where it is acceptable to beat women in public," a Salzburg women told me.
