By Timothy D. Naegele[1]
The insane have taken over the asylum.[2] Every day we read or hear about crimes, atrocities and genocidal actions that are more sinister, gruesome and egregious than the last. At times, we wonder whether our sensitivities can be shocked even more, and then they are.[3]
Madness and godlessness seem to be purveyed by deviants and freaks of nature everywhere[4], in the United States and globally. Throw in the fact that George Orwell's prescient "Animal Farm" seems to be operative. All of the animals were equal until the Pigs accreted power and reigned supreme, and subjugated the other animals. Then and now, madness reigns.[5]
Also, most Americans are oblivious to the fact that a first-strike EMP Attack might kill all but 30 million of us.[6] Basically, nothing is "hardened" against it. Indeed, our military's command-and-control center at Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado was just reactivated in recent years.[7]
An enemy would be smart to strike before brain-dead Joe Biden leaves the presidency—and parenthetically, while we have no serving Secretary of Defense, and Willie Brown's former ho Kamala Harris is the Vice President. In the vernacular of chess, such an enemy might advance from check to checkmate.
. . .
And then there's Artificial Intelligence (or AI), and its risks and repercussions.[8] Will God intervene to save us? The good news: it is unlikely that God has given up on the "human experiment."[9]
