Best Freeper pic since "The Moran." (From Camp Casey.)
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 01:47 PM by brainshrub
I took this picture of the pro-war signs across from "Camp Casey" and the peace activists on August 20th, 2005 at about 9:30am. It has not been edited in any way, except to add the watermark in the lower right hand corner.



Hey Freepers! "Providense" is spelled "P-R-O-V-I-D-E-N-C-E." Then again, "dense" is an apt description for people who can't spell or cite the Bible properly.

I am not a spelling Nazi, but if you're going to take the time to stencil a sign that takes the Bible out of context, you might as well use a dictionary.

Furthermore, how are the heathens supposed to read the full biblical quote in context if you don't tell them where to find it? "Mat" is not a complete citation.

The Bible quote is from Matthew 24:14, otherwise known as "The Great Commission" from Jesus, in which he exhorts his followers to spread the gospel of peace and love before the end-times arrive.

As a Christian myself, I know enough history to know that democracy is not a prerequisite for preaching the gospel. Christianity has flourished with the support of some of the most despotic kings and dictators throughout history.

The supporters of the war in Iraq once again embarrass themselves with their lack of compassion, spelling ability and understanding of Christian history.

52. Actually, RevMoon refers more often to "Providence" than the Bible does.
I posted this just a couple days ago. It's an open letter warning to US citizens that links RevMoon, Bush, and PNAC.



I found this open letter to US citizens that was posted around the net last February after Bush's State of the Union speech. It has a great analysis of the speech and interestingly notes that some of Bush's phrases weren't inspired by Christian-speak at all, but, more in line with Moon's speeches and sermons.

I suspect that the writers are REAL conservatives.

Its an open letter so there is no copyright infringement.

President Bush used the well-worn terminology of the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, the “road of providence” in the State of the Union Address. Why?




To Our FELLOW CITIZENS:




It is time for plain American English, language that speaks to all citizens, not just a few “chosen people” who covertly court and purchase the favor of President George II. It is time to stop using hidden messages and biblical terminology to define and express our domestic and foreign policy. This device continues to confuse our own citizens, those of other nations, and divides our civil society and political discourse.




Ironically, we find ourselves by choice of our President and his advisors invading another sovereign nation under secrecy and pretense, fighting an insurgency, providing humanitarian aid, attempting to avoid regional destabilization, and building a “free and sovereign” democratic, non- fundamentalist, secular Iraq. While at the same time they entreat a form theocracy here at home.




Our FOUNDING FATHERS knew better.




While a neo-conservative form of global freedom is purchased daily by the sacrifice of our brothers and sisters, the President and his pro-war confidants continue to plan more preemptive sorties. And where they would lead, our troops must go. Should we unquestioningly follow the “road of providence”… whatever that means.




There is no place in our free and democratic society for secret innuendo and code of “replacement theocracy” nourished by deceit which mirrors the language of those dangerous zealots who use these statements to fuel their own fundamentalist lust for legitimacy and seek to do us great harm.




Descriptions of such great purposes of an entire American generation such as professed in George Bush’s State of the Union deserve clarity and conciseness.





*The Story of “The Da Bushi Code” by George W. Bush*




From the Weekly Standard on Dec 23, 2005 just prior to the Inauguration and State of the Union:




“Providence. The notion that God is in charge of all things, including the course of America, is a theological doctrine and a long-standing tenet of the nation's "civil religion." “Meanwhile, even as we stipulate that we do not know all the ways of providence, we can make some decent guesses about Bush's second inaugural, on the calendar next month. Look for an allusion to the Bible or a hymn, a citing of a faith-based moment in American history, some maximal pluralism, and, last but not least, a nonpresumptuous (SIC) invocation of providence.”




And immediately after the SOTU from Charles Colson in BreakPoint Feb 4, 2005:




“He sounded it again in the speech's closing moments, when he talked about "the road of Providence" that "leads to freedom. Based on what we all know about President Bush, and what I know of him personally, I can say with confidence that this is no accident. The president takes his faith very seriously.”




We take the words of our President seriously. What is the “road of Providence”? Are we to believe the President has a direct line to God and what ever God wants the President is to do? Are these expeditionary first strike wars the will of Providence? Are we to march on believing God has so ordered our nation?




These are not just mere words. This is a mission statement of a generation, outlined in a speech delivered by the Chief Executive of your Democracy, the “Leader of the Free World”. And it “is” in fact true that fewer words have changed history. Given these declarations, delivered in such a form, this appears to be a “Crusade” against Islam.




*The Alignment of Bush and Moon: Can we continue to countenance this?*




America has experienced the quiet and comfort, which results from leaving every citizen to profess freely and openly those principals of religion, which are the inductions of their own reason and serious convictions of their spiritual inquiries. Religion, spirituality and faith in its multitude of forms are a respected part of our society. There should be diversity of religious opinions among us. This is our American family, the children of Abraham, and our proud native and productive adopted cousins.




Be alert to the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, the Unification Church and their millions in influence buying cash.




We thought the “road of providence” was a common religious expression, we were wrong. After days and days of searching and anayzing the terms “the road of providence” and its usage we found only one common source and scarcely no other in multiple digital, reference, internet or physical libraries. The “road of providence” appears almost exclusively in hundreds of Rev. Moon’s sermons, speeches and teachings.




To the public, the Rev. Sun Myung Moon tries to appear as a benevolent, conservative religious man. Few take seriously take he and his wife’s claims to be the "True Parents of mankind," a messiah of the "Return of Christ," and his goal is to unity the world in the name of his brand of Christianity. Those lost souls that live as the cult core of his Unification Church are bound in a type of modern day slavery, and have families whose loved ones have joined the church live in agony and terror.




FELLOW CITIZENS, you can look and think for yourselves. We know what you will find.




Among Rev. Moon’s usage of the “road of providence” are:
“Jesus was supposed to walk the road of the providence in front. Yet, he could not go in front. Instead, he stood behind everyone and said to each, "You go the easy way. I will walk the most difficult path." He shouldered the difficulties of the nation and the world alone.” (The Ideal Kingdom of Heaven, Our Hope, 1959); “We know the will of God and we know God's providence clearly. Compared to any other religion in history and throughout the world today we know the will of God and God Himself more precisely than anyone.” (The Road of Religion and the Will of God, 1977);
What is this stony path? That is the road of providence or dispensation. No one in history or in the world today readily volunteers to walk the stony path.” (Stony Path of Death, 1980); and “I am walking the road of the providence, not the way of America. Do you understand?” (Pure Way of Truth, 1982) to list a few.




We understand. Some want to salute Rev. Moon, he’s “the man with a vision”, a messiah with loads of money.




Networked in Unification Church activities you will discover: Ceremonies for Moon arranged by US Congressmen in government facilities, tens of millions in donations to every corner of the neo-conservative world, think tanks, foundations, media services, newspapers, printing operations, television and radio stations, special events and awards for Rev. Moon at prayer breakfasts for religious-right leaders and other influence peddlers, speeches by former presidents, diplomats, lobbyists and donation laden disciples, military equipment sales, a vast and long history of corruption, scandals and graft, and to top it off, $250,000 in for the 2005 Bush Inauguration just to give you a place to start.





*Is this the Theology of a New Century of American Empire?*




“Religion is the most dangerous energy source known to humankind. The moment a person (or government or religion or organization) is convinced that God is either ordering or sanctioning a cause or project, anything goes. The history, worldwide, of religion-fueled hate, killing, and oppression is staggering.” (Eugene Peterson)




Enter the likes Elliot Abrams, Richard L. Armatage, John Bolton, Robert Kagan, Richard Perle, Donald Rumsfeld, William Schnieder Jr., Paul Wolfowitz, James Woolsey, Robert B. Zoellick, and William Kristol. Kristol editor at the influential Weekly Standard and chair of the Project for the New American Century (read Empire) and this group of unilateralist, unipolar neo-conservatives admit the aspirations of empire. Kristol quipped "If people want to say we're an imperial power, fine" and "Well, what is wrong with dominance, in the service of sound principles and high ideals?” They say the “grand alliances are dead” and we should “go it alone” because “old Europe” is “corrupted by secularism”.




We too can become corrupted, by the ambition, fear and folly these men’s delusive use of “realism” and nationalism that may entangle our thoughts.




The PNAC, spurn of the signatories of the infamous “draft” Defense Advisory Board document in 1992 that called for the invasion of Iraq, claims a vision of an "American peace" based on "unquestioned U.S. military pre-eminence" and that "America's grand strategy should aim to preserve and extend this advantageous position as far into the future as possible." Their operatives infiltrate the Office of Strategic Planning (OSP) and the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) in their abuse of defense and intelligence assets in no-oversight ventures around the world. (Quotes from “Dangerous Religion: George W. Bush’s Theology of Empire” by Jim Wallis)




Foolishly, the PNAC insisted the seizure of Iraqi oil fields would not take a large US commitment for “much more than a year”. Now they say that Iraq is a “generational commitment”.




If this is our road, we have a right to ask where it leads. We know what happens when leaders think they own the country, own our “values” and proclaim that of their version of American morals and religion superior to all others. We cannot allow them through fear to capture the power of the state, church, business, and the military in order to do their bidding unquestioned and without voice.




What do such “imperial designs” and “hubris” profit if we gain the whole world, yet corrupt our American soul? How can we democratize and capitalize foreign lands, while being dependant on lands that are not? How can this Nation or any other nation be made secure and free with men of deranged minds at the head of it?




Our values are found in our Constitution and there is nothing there about using offensive military force and our common defense assets to actively enforce life, liberty and pursuit of happiness on the entire planet. It’s our liberation from and vigilance of tyranny that is our torch of liberty.




Whether Bush’s statement that he is taking us on the road of Providence is bisarre “thank you” gesture to the Rev. Moon or a new declaration of some providential road leading to American Empire, this shall not pass. Coupling US policy to an ideology based on a dangerous religious crusade fueled by cultists and “faith-based” freedom is un-American. Now is time for the citizens to enter our temple of democracy, topple the tables and drive out the profit takers.




What is the “road of providence”? Investigate as we did. Then decide for yourself what road you should take.




*MR. PRESIDENT, We the People call Upon You…*




To clear this up. If these connections and conclusions are incorrect, tell us. Come clean and share your source of such idealism and explain to all Americans what this “road of providence” is with unmistakable, simple English.




“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” (John 3:19-21)




For God’s sake come to the light and tell us like it is.




Signed,
“Those that value our own FAITH, LIBERTY and FREEDOM”




PS We are from several parties, backgrounds and ages.

34. There was just a showdown
There was just a showdown of Republican bikers, horse-riders and bleach-blond flag-wavers.

I am not making this up. I can't believe that some main-stream media outlets are claiming that we are the radicals when the counter-protesters are so over-the-top.

Their behavior is surreal.

42. What happened?
When I was there only one counter protester was usually in the tent. During the vigil there were maybe 4 and they were blasting the Tony Snow show. I don't think I ever saw more than 4 at a time. There were a couple that came over to us to mill around and be disgusted but they left quietly. So what happened? Was this at the new site? By the way, the new site looks fabulous, it made me cry when I saw it. I brought my truck all the way from Kansas in hopes of helping them move but we had to leave since it got put off. It was good to see they got there and it looks safe.

99. "You work hard to put food on your families"
I really feel compassion for them. Yet, their effect is so hurtful, that I don't know what to do. It's the whole "mob mentallity" that kicks in.

When people get together in this violent attitude instead of being clear about what they really support, it's best to not "hate" the individuals, but their collective stupidity and specific actions.

Anyone of them who will listen to the truth and turn froms the real evil they are being required to spout should be welcomed.

Maybe I can send a sign, "Quit drinking the koolaid!"

the sign is one thing, I can understand why they got the sign wrong......my impression of Bush supporters is they're not terribly bright.

But if they so strongly support Bush, where are all of the supporters? Did they just put the sign up and then leave?

That's not a strong showing of support if you ask me......

The song "Heaven Nine Eleven" is awesome!!!!

Heaven Nine Eleven Lyrics



Tell me why there so much pain today
‘Cause taking lives is for the gain or so they say
I can’t believe it but they feel this way
And that’s the way of the world
Tell me why it takes a tragedy to see
To wake us up and bring us down on to our knees
With all the people suffering with diseases

And that the way
That’s the way
That’s the way of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There’s got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel everybody’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

Teach the children what means to love
Show them why we can never give enough
Lets work together we can rise above

And change the ways
Change the ways
Change the ways of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

(Heaven)

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

(Heavens looking down) x3

41. Time for a Freeper lexicon
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 02:02 PM by GoneOffShore
Can anyone give more examples of misspelled words and inaccurate usage by Freeper's? I'm thinking about compiling them, along with appropriate and satirical definitions. It could even be a self published book.

Edited for punctuation & spelling.

47. I bet they also missed the apostrophe in "it's"
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 02:29 PM by jayctravis
...that seems to be a conveniently placed nail.

Grammar by accident.

On edit: Nope, looked again. Those are drilled holes to hang by wires, and they actually *did* use an apostrophe correctly. My bad.

On second edit: How sad that I just realized I hit 1000 posts on an incorrect critique of grammar...the shame!

82. If that really is an apostrophe instead of a nail or a hole,
I think it was placed there as an afterthought.


Besides, I like your "Grammar by accident." :D

62. The amazing thing about that picture is the scripture it has on it
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 04:03 PM by qanda
Which is from the 24th chapter of Matthew. Perhaps they should have read the entire chapter before they quoted just one verse. Verses 4 and 5 say, "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many." Verse 11 in the same chapter says, "And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many."

Ah, I would say look no further than Bush and his moral majority to see what this scripture was referring to.

On Edit: I posted this before I read the rest of your post. Isn't it amazing that they can twist scripture to mean whatever they want?

is in reality the absence of democracy it is, just as islamic fundamentalism believes, one vote = god's vote = there is therefore no need for democracy. but bush has made so complete a case for the ignorant & their ignorant opinions that they are here misspelling our loftiest poetry & "misunderstanding all (they) see..." to paraphrase lennon; too sad imo

89. Great pic! Y'know, I have to wonder if the typical RW
inability to spell (always so evident among freepers) is symptomatic of a larger problem -- the inability to see what's right in front of their eyes (after all, they have to have seen these words spelled correctly countless times), especially if it conflicts with earlier, less-informed judgments ("If it's pronounced like the word dense, it must be spelled the same...").

98. When it's the Kingdom of God.
Looking at it from a Christian standpoint, a truly just Kingdom ruled by Christ would not reward those who pretend to be good, but those whose hearts truly are good. And those who were in a minority opinion would be respected as Christ respected those he met, even the Samaritans, who many felt were the "infidels" of their time.

It's so funny how freepers can use all the right words in such wrong hearted and wrong minded ways.

And it's sad. If they truly believed in what they speak and lived accordingly, they would be on the other side of the road. Maybe in time their eyes will be opened. Hopefully it won't be too late.

If I could afford to go there, I'd cross the road and see about their Christian viewpoints and see if they really support the bozo who mowed down the crosses dedicated to the soldiers or if they are simply feeling they need to support their pResident because their church leaders said so.

Like F**king for Chastity, I guess.

And Even IF Democracy is a prerequisite for spreading the Peace & Love, then why are they protesting Cindy? Her protest IS Democracy in action.

Even if her view WERE totally wrong minded, it is the principle of Democracy to let every person have their say and reasonable issues raised and reasonable questions answered.

The new leadership will not tolerate other religions. They even have problems with the different sects of their own.
It wasn't easy for Christians under Saddam, but it will be impossible for them under Islamic rule.
