Memorial Poem for Oupa Ben

my child asks after his grandpa

your grandpa was a man of sand and sun
he cared for the earth, he planted plants and his hands
guaranteed fruit and vegetables for his children
when things broke, he made certain
they would heal: your grandpa was thorough
and real. the earth part of your grandpa
has returned to earth, but the sun part shines
in the eye of God, shines in infinity
projecting the indelible image
of a grandpa and his grandchild on a walk
walking away on the beach at jeffreys bay, stepping
steadily into eternity

Huldeblyk aan my Pa, vandag begrawe

my kindjie vra vrae oor sy oupa

jou oupa was ‘n man van grond en son
hy het die aarde versorg, hy het plante geplant en met sy hande
groente en vrugte vir sy kinders gewaarborg
as iets gebreek het, het hy seker gemaak
dit kom weer reg: jou oupa was deeglik
en eg. die grondgedeelte van jou oupa
het teruggegaan grond toe, maar die songedeelte skyn
in die oog van God, skyn in die oneindigheid
en projekteer die onuitwisbare beeld
van ‘n oupa en sy kleinkind wat gaan stap
stap en stap oor die strand by jeffreysbaai, aanstap soos die tyd self
onkeerbaar die ewigheid in

Covid and Mass Deception

I alerted my readers to the existence of the transhumanist agenda on this blog as far back as 2009 when I did some research on the topic for a dystopian science fiction series I had in mind.

My research led me to the conclusion that there is nothing I can imagine in my worst nightmare, worse than the reality of what exists already in the sense of what Islam would call "haraam bidah" - forbidden (in the sense of being harmful to humanity just like drinking or other forms of harmful behavior) innovation.

Having said that, I'm happy to see that I am no longer a voice in the desert crying alone. There are thousands of people today creating challenging and interesting content regarding the threats posed in particular by big pharma and biotechnology to humanity.

The big lie of Covid-19 and the related pharma scam of mRNA "vaccines" showed you everything you wanted not to know. Dear fellow humans, I didn't want to be right about this. It is not a pleasure to see the damage they have done.

Please feel free to interact with this page and post any questions or comments you may have. I will share information in my usual fearless way. If the blog suddenly disappears, know I didn't take it down: they did. I kept it low key for a long time because so many people are doing a great job of exposing the truth about these issues, but it would be shameful to say nothing after all this time.

God bless you all and keep you free from the harm of deception. Be brave and stand firm in your convictions. Above all: be human. I and thousands of truth warriors are fighting for your rights not to be zombies. Please don't be those people.

The Original Bio-Conservative: I Am

The terms "Techno-Luddite" and "Bioconservative" are slurs that are being used today by the ever-so-progressive "transhumanist" and "posthumanist" atheist movements to describe their opponents. Typically, environmentalists and people of faith are opposed to the goals and ideals of this movement, which include sanctioning and accepting, and ultimately controlling and regulating in ways that would have made Orwell's eyes pop, all manner of technological interference in the natural world by humans. This quasi-intellectual movement's goals would include everything from "upgrading" our human bodies to make them more compatible with computer technology, to actually becoming "cyborgs" (cybernetic organisms). Experiments are afoot in some of the world's most respected universities, whereby these goals are actively being pursued. These experiments range from frightening to downright nasty. As an environmentalist who happens to be a person of faith, I suppose I am the original "Bioconservative" - I like the way God created me and wish to stay this way, simply human - and hence it is my duty to create a voice in opposition to the strident and ungodly voices that would maim and distort God's creation to no end, if left to their own frightening devices. Many of my readers may never even have heard of "transhumanism" or "posthumanism" and may be as shocked and horrified as I was, when they learn the extent of its prevalence today. Let us therefore carefully examine these concepts and present a real alternative for people to embrace: let us not become the Matrix, wired to our computers and governed by microchips as these madmen propose, but let us instead become reunited with our loving Creator, Jehovah God, or as He is known to Israel: Hashem. Hashem alone has the knowledge and the sovereign right to govern this world properly. It is to Him that we must turn in these troubled times, and it is through Yeshua, otherwise known as his son Jesus Christ, that salvation and the pathway for our return to our true nature will in fact be found.

Note to my readers

This blog deals with subject matter that is as yet unknown to many. If you encounter terminology here that is new or unknown or unclear to you, you are asked please to use the search engine and to google any terms of reference that may be unclear from the context. Please do your own research as much as possible to find out more about this subject matter and please do share your findings with us via the Comments field on this blog. I want to make this blog as interactive as possible.

The global transhumanist or posthumanist movements are as of yet fledgling in nature, but they have a strong presence in academic institutions worldwide and they have a certain appeal to intellectuals who believe that it is possible somehow to "enhance" the human race by means of technology. This quest for technological "enhancement" may include anything from sanctioning and encouraging the widespread, even non-medicinal use of mind-altering psychotropic drugs to self-replicating nanotechnology with frightening destructive power, to the installation of microchips in the human body with the capability to create an interface with the neural networks of the human mind. It also includes a desire on the part of the transhumanists to be able to engage in genetic engineering on a scale most men and women would consider to be completely unacceptable.

Barack Obama is a wonderful and inspiring man, but during the election campaign he indicated that he is in favour of "progress" with respect to stem cell technology. If the USA leads the charge and advocates a free-for-all with respect to this type of research, this has potentially frightening implications for our world and we implore the President to reconsider his stance on this issue.

I consider these issues to be of such importance that every human being on this planet needs to become informed about them post haste, because the technology for many of the dystopian horror visions of the transhumanists - visions which they apparently regard as "improvements" to our current human society - unfortunately exists already. We need to understand that our ethical and legal mechanisms for containing and managing these phenomena may be considerably out of date, and we need to respond immediately, and hypervigilantly, to this horrifying threat to human freedom and security.

Members of the transhumanist and posthumanist movements who wish to engage in a rational, civil debate on these issues are cordially invited to participate.
