On Disposable Friends - American Digest
On Disposable Friends - American Digest
see comments esp Mizz E
"I wish I could claim that all the people whom I’ve loved have always loved me back, or that my needs and those of the people closest to me have always dovetailed perfectly. But friendship doesn’t work that way, and people’s needs aren’t always the same, so it is only fair to say that I have often wished for something no one had to give, and in that I know I’m not alone.
Some people feel angry when they think of moments when they’ve had to stand alone, and question the value they once put upon friends who weren’t there when they needed them. But I think the thing to remember is this–you don’t get from friends what you give to them, you get what they have to give, and that is the thing you must not forget. People can only give you what they have to give.
It is difficult to remember this when you know just what you need and none of your friends have it to give, and especially difficult when you have given it to them in the past. But you will save yourself a lot of grief if you keep in mind that you don’t have you for a friend, however much you might wish you did. You have that person out there instead."

True but Forbidden 2 - American Digest
True but Forbidden 2 - American Digest: The Enemies of the beast are Goodness, Truth, and Beauty.
The weapons, in reverse order:
Tattooing.
The media.
Moral relativity.
Unfortunately, the beast has had remarkable success in all three areas.
Who would ever have thought that millions of women would voluntarily destroy their God- given beauty, by allowing their bodies to be tagged up like a partition in a toilet stall?
Who would imagine that our media would be given over to wholesale lies, and propaganda?
How did Christianity become public enemy number one?

The rise of Satanism in America, where members don't ACTUALLY worship the devil - but push activism | Daily Mail Online
The rise of Satanism in America, where members don't ACTUALLY worship the devil - but push activism | Daily Mail Online: The Satanic Temple has seven clearly laid-out tenets – guidelines that would, perhaps, surprise many who think they know what Satanism is. They are: One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason; The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions; One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone; The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To wilfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one’s one; Beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world. One should take never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s beliefs; People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one’s best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused; Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.’
