More attacks on Churches: Links 2, October 31, 2020

1. Sam Harris jumps the shark

(I parted ways with Harris years ago for the way he treated Jordan Peterson in a ‘debate’. It was not the Sam Harris I had previously known from podcasts and his book. But this is way over the top.)

Sam Harris: ‘Osama bin Laden is far more understandable to me and far less reprehensible than Trump’

Sam Harris is a famous atheist and a self-professed “rationalist,” but here he demonstrates that the Left’s hatred for Trump can race far beyond all the bounds of rationality and become cultlike in its perfervid intensity. Sam Harris has spoken critically about Islamic jihad violence in the past, but he allowed himself to be intimidated into silence about the root causes of that violence, and came out in opposition to any and all effective counter-jihad measures. Sam also recently unmasked himself as a fascist foe of the freedom of speech.

In light of all that, this revolting dive into the most fetid dumpster of Trump Hatred, and awe-inspiring example of moral myopia, is not altogether unexpected. But that doesn’t make it any less reprehensible.

The following thread on Sam Harris’ recent TDS is very good.

2. Greek Orthodox Priest Shot in Lyon, France, Gunman on the Run

A gunman is on the run after a Greek Orthodox priest was shot at a church in Lyon, France, according to reports.

The shooting is said to have taken place at the Église Greek Orthodox church in the city’s 7th district, with the cleric seriously injured. First responders are at the scene, which has been cordoned off.

This follows a radical Islamic terrorist attack by a Tunisian migrant at a church in Nice which left three dead, although as yet the nature of the incident in Lyon is unclear.

3. Imam in Canada drums up hatred for anyone clinging to classical values of freedom of speech and the right to criticize religious authority.

4. This appears to be a Biden Harris campaign bus surrounded by Trump supporters.

5. About that newest attack against Church clergy in Lyon

6. Joe Biden invents more words than Shakespeare. But with no actual meaning.

7. Glen Greenwald on Tucker explaining how he was forced from his own publication for not towing the narrative.

8. Glenn Greenwald explains that Ed Snowdon is in fact, in Russia because the Biden Obama administration FORCED him to be there.

9. Trudeau arranges to sell drones to Turkey, who is currently at war with Armenia.

  1. I wonder how many people in the gun control states realize why the Trump supporters in the gun rights states are being so open about their support of Trump?

  2. 1.
    Sam Harris 2016:
    “To consider only one point of comparison: We have now witnessed Donald Trump bragging about his sexual predations in terms that not even Satan himself could spin to his advantage.

    He has admitted to repeatedly groping women, kissing them on the mouth without their consent, and invading the dressing rooms of teenage pageant contestants to see them naked. Every day, more women come forward confirming the truth of these confessions. Trump has even said that he would have sex with his own daughter, were she the offspring of another man. He talks about his libido as only a malignant narcissist can: as though it were a wonder of nature, a riddle no mortal can solve, and a blessing to humanity.

    Such disclosures should have ended Trump’s presidential campaign.”

    The Left go into a moral ‘family values’ frenzy for you, to live up to your own high standard of decency and honor; but it’s experimental free-loving for them as long as the child didn’t tell them their age. As two-faced as the National Socialist face of islam. Instead of master-dhimmi, it’s elite-proletariat domination of one low standard for them and a higher one or you. Both extremely gender-fixated.

    It’s simply a soul thing. They don’t have one. Because islam submitted theirs, Marxism denied theirs, and Sexuals search and never find one within their LGBTQ empire. Bucks, Cucks and Sucks all have no fathers. Momma is their Authority – to beat, cheat and defeat. The hatred of the Woman (adult female) is their war. Can’t live with her, can’t live without her. Less than a man, better than a man, replaced by a man. She is not allowed to be feminine and herself. They will not leave her alone. Anti-life cults. Intellectuals with no knowledge of Evolution in all things in Heaven and on Earth.

    “Such disclosures…” proved Trump was a better man.

    • “Such disclosures…” proved Trump was a better man.

      This means: Trump in the Past is not Trump in the Present. People Change for the better. Evolution.

      Conversely, Bucks, Cucks and Sucks live for a petrified Ground Zero. The frozen five-year olds where the Past remains in them and defines them.
