  • Leviticus
    Chapter 11

    1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,

    2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.

    3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.

    4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

    5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

    6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

    7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.

    8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.

    9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.

    10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:

    11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

    12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

    13 And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,

    14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;

    15 Every raven after his kind;

    16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,

    17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,

    18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,

    19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.

    20 All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you.

    21 Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;

    22 Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.

    23 But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.

    24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.

    25 And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.

    26 The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.

    27 And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.

    28 And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.

    29 These also shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,

    30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.

    31 These are unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be dead, shall be unclean until the even.

    32 And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be, wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.

    33 And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.

    34 Of all meat which may be eaten, that on which such water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.

    35 And every thing whereupon any part of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: for they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.

    36 Nevertheless a fountain or pit, wherein there is plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.

    37 And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.

    38 But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.

    39 And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.

    40 And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.

    41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.

    42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon all four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.

    43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.

    44 For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

    45 For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

    46 This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:

    47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
    Leviticus Chapter 11 1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth. 3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat. 4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof;

he is unclean to you. 8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you. 9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat. 10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you: 11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination. 12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you. 13 And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls;

  • EXCLUSIVE: ‘NextGen Marxism’s’ Infiltration Into American Life
    https://www.dailysignal.com/2024/04/05/exclusive-nextgen-marxism-what-is-this-cancer-taking-over-american-institutions/

    What has happened to America? How did it become a land where teachers tell students they may have been born in the wrong body and where keeping your job could depend on affirming the lie that our society is systemically racist?

    These are just two examples of many in which a new Marxist ideology is gripping our nation’s institutions.

    But this isn’t the Soviet Marxism of the 1960s. This is “NextGen Marxism,” and it’s infiltrating every part of American life.

    NextGen Marxism is the new frontier in a 170-year-old war that has wreaked havoc in all corners of the world. It is the cultural Marxism of [early 20th-century Italian Antonio] Gramsci—the idea that to obtain civilizational transformation you must first undermine the existing culture; the manipulation of a raft of causes to ignite grievances; the use of grassroots organizing to create foot soldiers for focused campaigns, demonstrations, or even riots; and, crucially, the creation of revolutionary networks to strategize and coordinate.

    The use of race, sex, sexual orientation, climate, social justice, gender, animal rights; the denigration of beauty and the sublime; the consequent elevation of ugliness, chaos, and disorder; the decimation of the family; the abandonment of God—these and many other diverse struggles are fronts in a larger war.

    INGRASSIA: Under Kamala Harris, Americans Can Say ‘Good-Bye’ To Their Sacred Rights To Speak Freely, Worship, Assemble, Bear Arms, and Vote | The Gateway Pundit | by Paul Ingrassia
    Kamala Harris and Tim Walz have made a penchant for chastising “hate speech” and “misinformation” on the campaign trail this election season. While those words might not seem like much to those less familiar with how our constitutional form of government, and specifically the First Amendment, is supposed to work, they are offensive to those of us who understand a thing or two about the Constitution – particularly, the notable omission of a so-called “hate speech” clause.

  • I've been on this earth a LONG TIME, and I've NEVER seen hurricanes act like these OR mysterious "Fires" that melt cars and houses, and leave trees and grass un-burned!

    And I also thought it was curious that these "fires" just so happened to burn down the poor people's houses, while leaving the wealthy #Parasite Class's houses untouched, right next door.

    AND they also just so happen to have occurred exactly where the #Criminals of #UnitedNations and the #WEF have planned their #slavery zones, or "15 minute cities" Which are actually "15 minute open air prisons"

    YOU are under attack by the people who claim to "protect you"
    The same people that steal half of your paycheck, and then steal 80% of what is left out of that on other "Taxes" and fees and permits and "licenses"

    You are literally funding your own demise
    The ONE WAY to put an end to all of this is SOUND MONEY!

    STOP using the Federal Reserve's worthless "notes of DEBT" and get back to trading with your fellow man using REAL MONEY!

    You see, the money system controls the WORLD!
    You will never get wealthy, no matter how much money you make!

    Because once you get a lot of their worthless monopoly money, they will just PRINT UP a lot more, which makes that you have worth less!
    You will be a #Slave until you get back to using sound money!
    Gold, Silver, Copper etc.....

    Because paper and ink are UNLIMITED!
    When THEY print it up it's "business as usual"
    If YOU print it it's a FEDERAL FELONY!

    Are you starting to put the pieces together yet?
    If they don't like you they will simply print a mountain of worthless paper, and then give it to some poor inner-city kid to off you!

    They will STEAL / BUY YOUR LAND using worthless paper!
    REAL ASSETS traded for WORTHLESS PAPER!

    How do you take over the entire world???
    You get people to agree to trade using your worthless paper!

    Then you create "Banks"in every city in the world to control the distribution of this worthless paper! And for every worthless piece of paper the people "deposit" in these banks, the bank is allowed to "Loan" 10 pieces of worthless paper to people and charge interest!

    It is called #Usury and has been outlawed by every country on earth at one time! Around 1913 that all changed!

    WAKE UP
    And realize that SOUND MONEY
    is the ONLY THING that can save us all

  • A dik-dik is a small antelope species belonging to the genus Madoqua, native to the savannas and scrubs of eastern and southern Africa. Characterized by their compact size, large eyes, and elongated snouts, dik-diks typically weigh between 10 to 15 pounds and stand about 12 to 16 inches tall at the shoulder. They are known for their shy and elusive nature, and they primarily feed on leaves, fruits, and grasses. Dik-diks are also notable for their monogamous breeding habits and unique vocalizations, which include a distinctive alarm call that sounds like a high-pitched "dik-dik."

  • Inside the World's Largest Doomsday Bunker Community
    An Epic Humanitarian Project the size Of A city:
    575 private bunkers with space for thousands in one of North America's safest locations: The decommissioned US Army Black Hills Ordnance Depot at Igloo, South Dakota; south of Edgemont, SD.

    Mankind has a continuing obsession with end of the world prophecies and judgement day. Any visible or invisible threat to life kicks our survival instincts into gear and we want to take action. The market capitalizes on this fear and pushes innovation and products that both feed and satisfy survivalism. I visited the Terra Vivos survival shelters in South Dakota last month.

    This former US Army Base was constructed in 1942 and was called the Black Hills Ordnance Depot. It served as an explosives and munitions storage and maintenance facility. The bunkers measure 27 feet in width and 60 to 80 feet in length. The foundation is made of 2 to 3 feet of reinforced concrete. The walls are 12 inches thick and have a trench running down the sides. The interior space is 13 feet tall at their highest point. This entire survival shelter project is headed by Robert Vicino who has a background in manufacturing and real estate. His son, Dante Vicino gave us a tour of the Terra Vivos site and took us to some unfinished and completed bunkers.

    The bunkers are completely off the grid. To make them livable, you have to consider 4 main utilities. Water, Sewage, Energy, Internet Access. They are structurally sound, so you don’t have to add any additional support or reinforcement. Soil in the area is stable unlike the clayey soil in Texas, so most of the 82 year old foundations are in great shape and don't have any cracks. The curved interior walls are made of board-formed concrete. You can still see the beautiful wood grain etched into the concrete. Working remotely is no longer an issue. Thermal mass of the 12 inch thick concrete walls store heat or thermal energy during the day and slowly release it at night when it’s cooler. It can be turned into a self-sufficient town with a supermarket, hardware store, bars and restaurants. I see a lot of similarities to Marfa which is a small desert city in West Texas. Marfa was also a military town in the 1940s but it was converted into a cultural hub by Donald Judd, a minimalist artist from New York City.

    It’s an over-ambitious plan. Out of the 800 bunkers on site, the Vivos company wants to convert 575 of them. So far, only 50 have been purchased. The lease plan prevents you from ever owning your bunker. The wildlife like cows and deer that roam the site often climb on top of the bunkers causing erosion of the soil and grass, and exposing the concrete. Since it’s not “underground” it’s not as safe as other survival shelters that are buried 3 to 10 feet underground. The company is catering to a small group of people. They warn of nuclear war, bioterrorism, anarchy, electro-magnetic pulses, solar flares, super volcanoes, etc. If they marketed their bunkers as a way to protect family, life and belongings, it might be more popular with a larger group of people. Remote location. In the event of a disaster, you’d need a private plane to take you to Provo, South Dakota. It only works as a survival shelter if you are permanently living there. The nearest hardware store is in Hot Springs, about 45 minutes to an hour away. Vicino’s contractors designed layouts, but I wasn’t impressed with the quality of their work. Contamination of the subsurface soil and water supply is a concern to some residents in the area. Long term effects of living in a concrete box with no sunlight are also problematic.

    It’s an exciting project with a lot of potential if a significant number of individuals move to the area. I don’t know what category these bunkers fit into. It’s not a luxury survival shelter, it’s not in a super-secure, secret location, it’s not conveniently located near a major city unless you consider Rapid City a major city; and it’s not underground. At best, it is an earth sheltered home or bungalow. I’m wary of it turning into a thriving community, unless their marketing strategy changes.

Out of the 800 bunkers on site, the Vivos company wants to convert 575 of them. So far, only 50 have been purchased. The lease plan prevents you from ever owning your bunker. The wildlife like cows and deer that roam the site often climb on top of the bunkers causing erosion of the soil and grass, and exposing the concrete. Since it’s not “underground” it’s not as safe as other survival shelters that are buried 3 to 10 feet underground. The company is catering to a small group of people. They warn of nuclear war, bioterrorism, anarchy, electro-magnetic pulses, solar flares, super volcanoes, etc. If they marketed their bunkers as a way to protect family, life and belongings, it might be more popular with a larger group of people. Remote location. In the event of a disaster, you’d need a private plane to take you to Provo, South Dakota. It only works as a survival shelter if you are permanently living there. The nearest hardware store is in Hot Springs, about 45 minutes to an hour away. Vicino’s contractors designed layouts, but I wasn’t impressed with the quality of their work. Contamination of the subsurface soil and water supply is a concern to some residents in the area. Long term effects of living in a concrete box with no sunlight are also problematic. It’s an exciting project with a lot of potential if a significant number of individuals move to the area. I don’t know what category these bunkers fit into. It’s not a luxury survival shelter, it’s not in a super-secure, secret location, it’s not conveniently located near a major city unless you consider Rapid City a major city; and it’s not underground. At best, it is an earth sheltered home or bungalow. I’m wary of it turning into a thriving community, unless their marketing strategy changes. https://rumble.com/v5gidwh-inside-the-worlds-largest-doomsday-bunker-community.html

  • OUR DAILY OLDIES: BACK IN THE 1960s, MANY OF OUR POPULAR SONGS CAME BACK TO US FROM BRITAIN IN DIFFERENT VERSIONS BY BRITISH GROUPS BUT THIS AMERICAN HIT SONG, GRAZING IN THE GRASS BY FRIENDS OF DISTINCTION, CAME BACK TO US FROM SOUTH AFRICA BY THE TRUMPET PLAYER HUGH MASEKELA AND IT BECAME A HIT ON ITS OWN MERITS. VERY ORIGINAL VERSION.
