It Seems Cape English Don't Relate to the Situation of Boers (Afrikaaner Refugees Story)


Afrikaner ‘Refugee’ Had Five Bedroom House, Mining Company // The Corder Report

3:13 Maybe some black man wants that house ... that just could be part of his rationale?

4:22 You are saying, "there is no land being expropriated unbjustly without compensation" at all.

Here is an actual White South African farmer:

there is no land being 0:20 expropriated on a mass scale from 0:22 anybody in South Africa without 0:25 compensation it's not to say that the 0:27 expropriation Act is not harmful and uh 0:30 is why it is being challenged legally by 0:32 the da um but we have to make sure that 0:35 we Safeguard our agriculture sector and 0:37 our agriculture jobs


Executive Order | I want our Afrikaans farmers to stay in SA: John Steenhuisen

Note how John Steenhuisen's words differ from yours. He adds the qualifier "on a mass scale" ...

The guy you stamped as delusional probably thought "even if it's not on a mass scale ... " he was in the risk zone.

Apartheid ended in 1991. It's not racist to want to keep one's land. It's also not racist to fear losing it due to that rare, but extant guy who doesn't care for compensation being paid out ...




What did you just say?

That expropriation act is done 4:29 all around the world including in the 4:31 United States of America They just call 4:32 it a different thing


No, you are comparing apples and oranges.

The internationally usual (these ugly days) expropriation is one which can be examplified in Spain. One of the less attractive features of the Franco régime (which overall I like), it expropriated farmers' lands for projects. Like the dam at Yesa near Jaca, a whole village is flooded and the villagers had to relocate. Or a dam in Wales to lead water to a city in England, also a bad story. Or villages expropriated (back to Spain) in order to make highways.

The one in South Africa is about making white owned farms black owned. That's everything there is to it. And according to John Steenhuisen, that's often to the detriment of efficient farming. That's not international expropriation, it's the kind of Soviet expropriation which if it didn't totally produce the Volga valley bad harvest in the 1930's ... there had been one under the Czars ... at least didn't help to prevent it.

You know the one where the next step was expropriating wheat from Ukraine and Kuban (a region in Russia near Ukraine) to the point of causing mass starvation.

Now, the South African expropriations haven't caused mass starvation yet, but it doesn't mean the story is correct. proceeding is a correct one.

"Returned error" = the comment isn't there anymore.]


4:49 You seem still not to have grasped that the guy didn't feel secure in his five bedroom house and his mining company?

6:22 You know, the European Commission of human rights has some exceptions on for instance "the right to life" ...

One of them is, if a policeman or similar summons you to sth and you don't comply. If you are summoned to halt your car and you try to flee the police by overspeeding which puts other people in danger, the police can shoot you and won't be charged with murder if you die.

The Polish case is actually about Polish soldiers summoning people at the frontier to turn back. So, at least technically, it's not murder.

Speaking of murder, some countries in Europe have experienced that from Muslims the last decade.

I feel less sorry for a Muslim being told to turn at the Polish border than for Amy Winehouse being turned back to the detox which helped to kill her.

6:43 BBC is not the whole arbiter of truth.

Jews in Mea Shearim (or from Mea Shearim walking in other parts of Jerusalem) spitting on Christians has happened.

Jimmy Akin Makes a Blooper


Was Genesis inspired by Ancient Myths?
Catholic Answers Live Clips | 11 July 2025
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpmIiMdpwz8


If a bottleneck happened in 100 000 BP, without an Ark, and if the hagiographer (at this point definitely identified as Moses) based things on earlier popular stories, but these inspired by more recent Mesopotamian floodings ...

That would mean a non-protection from error, because it would then be erroneous to state there was an Ark. It's flouting the most basic limitation Pope Pius XII put into §§ 38 and 39

As for Mesopotamian Flood stories being inspired by floodings of the Euphrates and Tigris ... Utnapishtim took off from Shuruppak, which is South East of Baghdad, so, downstream of Baghdad.

He landed on Mount Nisir or Mount Nimush in Kurdistant, on Pir Omar Gudrun aka Pira Magrun, near Sulaymaniyah. Now this city is upstreams from Baghdad, over 200 km in each direction.

May I ask you very gently if you have ever seen a flooding push a survivor 400 km upstream?

No, the story of Utnapishtim is NOT based on a flooding of Tigris and Euphrates. It's based on a memory of a world wide Flood. So, with equally obvious text reading, is the Genesis account. However, the Genesis Ark could actually survive the very long and non-abrupt waves of a Global Ocean, which the world would temporarily have been. The vessel in the Utnapishtim story couldn't. This makes more sense if the Genesis was the ungarbled, and the Utnapishtim story the garbled account of the same event, than if the Genesis story had been filtered through the Babylonian version.



Apart from the question of the Flood, there is so much "in the first 11 chapters" which has no direct counterpart in the standard versions of Babylonian myth or any other that I'm definitely aware of.

Adam and Eve. Cain and Abel and Seth. Tower of Babel.

Then again, the limit of "first 11 chapters" is not adequate if you want Old Earth Creationism and from some point on straight forward history after the "myths" ... Pius XII by "Quae autem ex popularibus narrationibus in Sacris Litteris recepta sunt" probably meant things much closer to Paul Revere or George Washington's cherry tree than to Uranus and Gaea. Indeed, that's basically the only way one can make sense of the following words in Humani Generis. But be that as it may, you cannot have chapter 12 (plus final verses of chapter 11) transition from "this is very shortened, telescoped into much smaller narrative time than the actual time" to "this is the same number of years in the narrative and the actual events" ...

Genesis 14 mentions a habitation of Asason Tamar. Now we know from II Chron. Asason Tamar is En Geddi. However the archaeology of En Geddi is totally void of habitation for carbon dated 2000 BC. The Chalcolithic habitation, identified with Amorrhites, and thus with the Genesis 14 event, ceases in carbon dated 3500 BC. Next human habitation is in the Iron Age, so definitely too late.

For me as a Young Earth Creationist, this is not a problem. I take the carbon date 3500 BC, identify it with Genesis 14, based on Abraham being c. 80 and born in 2015 BC, I identify it more specifically with 1935 BC. This means, I'll have to say the atmosphere in 1935 BC had not reached higher on the rise from less than 2 pmC at the Flood than to sth like 82.763 pmC (the value on my latest table). However, if you are Old Earth, you will not agree that a carbon date of 39 000 BP = 2957 BC, and so you will also not agree that carbon dated 3500 BC was 1935 BC. You will not agree that the carbon 14 level was lower than 2 pmC or around 82.763 pmC at those two events that are 1022 years apart.

Therefore you cannot square the archaeology of En Geddi with full historicity of Genesis 14, which I can.

And given "the Genesis 14 war" is the immediate prequel to Melchisedec blessing Abraham, you'd have to abandon historicity for that one too. Now it's really starting to cut scars in pretty central Christian theology, isn't it? Unless, of course, you accept Young Earth Creationism as the clue. Aka City of God being right about the patriarchs. Those of Genesis 5 and 11.

Dum Diversas, 1452


The Catholic Church and Slavery
Reason & Theology | 9 July 2025
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxtYdmNO8X4


Wiki:

Dum Diversas (English: While different) is a papal bull issued on 18 June 1452 by Pope Nicholas V. It authorized King Afonso V of Portugal to fight, subjugate, and conquer "those rising against the Catholic faith and struggling to extinguish Christian Religion"—namely, the "Saracens (Muslims) and pagans" in a militarily disputed African territory. The document consigned warring enemies that lost to "perpetual servitude".


I glanced at the bull from an 1868 Bullarium for bulls directed to Portugal.

It seems the "in perpetuam servitudinem" phrase occurs about the magistrates and military of the kingdoms and duchies involved. I would say, unless I misread, Portugal went beyond that and illicltly encouraged slave trade. So to speak applying to civilians or citizens what should only apply to their magistrates.

Also, it is not clear that "perpetuam" would mean "hereditary" rather than "lifelong" ...

If Ted Bundy hadn't got electric chair, he would also have got perpetual servitude, as do some teens that have killed in the US.

Doctrinally, it means that perpetual servitude is permissible, for certain types of offenders.

If it weren't, Trump would have to close lots of facilities and redirect prisoners of more than 20—30 years to either electric chair or pardon.

The context clearly says kings, princes, dukes etc and kingdoms, principalities, duchies, etc. It would be a modern misreading to apply this to the whole population, it applies to the ruling class and those fighting for them.

I don't see the conclusion for Sicut dudum really differs. In Sicut dudum, they were clearly speaking of the population and especially Christian converts.

Or from Intra Arcana and Pastorale officium (forbidding the enslavement of Indians, this referring in 1537 clearly to civilian ones already subjected to Spain).

The prudential judgement implies a doctrinal proposition, namely that perpetual servitude is sometimes OK as a punishment.

The scope of Dum Diversas are the guys Portugal is fighting against, rulers and armies of certain Saracen kingdoms.

I don't see it as over the top that those in a particular occasion had deserved to go to lifelong prison all of them, and the doctrinal proposition simply means offenders can be punished with, among other things, perpetual servitude.

It also means, states can be criminal.

4:08 I'm insisting that both "Lite"* and "Mulvaney" are reasons to ditch Bud for Pilsner Urquell, their rival (also one of my favourite beers).

4:44 Oh, the LA Dodgers' Management which forbade Nezza to sing El pendón estrellado is forcing Clayton Kershaw to wear a pride cap ...

Her stance may have inspired his.

I remember the words of CSL's gardener Paxford to Susan Pevensie (in a fan fiction of mine), after discussing the Flood:

"whenever I see a r a i n b o w I think the next disaster will be a fire" ...

6:24 US, Dobbs. UK, what you just mentioned.

Fort McHenry, Sept 14 (Holy Cross!) 1814 was a victory for God's own.

* My bad, Bud Lite is nearly the same strength as Pilsner Urquell. In fact, in Sweden, Bud Lite would not count as a "lite beer" but as a "strong beer" and so would Pilsner.

4:22 This is probably one poisonous fruit of belief that Satan remains the prince of this world, even after crucifixion.

Jesus cast him out. In St. Paul we see someone, either God or Satan, referred to as "god of this world" / "God of this world" ... who blinds those that are lost. But we do not see that Satan holds power over the kingdoms, as he did back in Matthew 4 / Luke 4.

More than one Catholic reading actually refers that text to God: He choses to blind those who have basically already refused to see, he provides the shutters people are asking for.

On the other hand, if you believe as those guys do, Satan is still not cast out, no state or place of land can be in a good shape until Jesus returns.

8:20 One thing he gets wrong in Late Great Planet Earth, not that I have read it, but the detail ha been highlighted, is the character of the Antichrist.

Nicolae Jetty isn't very convincing. Hal Lindsey ... the late great writer Hal Lindsey ... believed too much in the Antichrist seducing in the way someone charms by being a genius and providing solutions.

He basically just cast Mozart and Otto von Bismarck into the role ... now, both actually do have Antichrist vibes, for very different reasons, Mozart was a Freemason and liked to use the two scales with three flats, and basically wrote them out so they looked like 6-es. Otto was into oppressing Catholics, whether by excluding Austria and including Bavaria, or by attacking Napoleon III. Or by promoting (if not inventing), though underhandedly, the Marcan priority plus liberal theology in order to pretend Papal claims were "later accretions" ....

10:53 Catholics who have taken it about end times have noted that "this generation" = the generation of the faithful.

As or insofar as the Catholic Church still stands, this is so far verified.

16:12 I have not taken to reading Magog allegorically.

I think Magog is an actual ethnicity and it's currently or will shortly be present at all the four corners of the mainland (taking the Atlantic as kind of an inland sea).

Those four corners are Alaska and Cape Horn in the West, NE Russia as the NE corner and Sydney, Hobart, possibly even "Wellington" in the role of the SE corner.

Those four corners would also seem to include actual Israelites converting to Christianity.

One reading is, an Ashkenaz by matrilinear descent, which counts in Judaism, is (or many of them are) Magog. By patrilinear descent, which counts in Christianity, he descends from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and so he can represent the twelve tribes as soon as he becomes a Christian.

Another one would be Magog are Indo-Europeans.

A third would be, Magog actually still mainly means the geographical area North of the Iranians, which today would be for instance Russia. There are exile Russians on the four corners since the Russian Revolution.

* As he is a lawyer, he very wisely avoided to say "Evangelicals" as if it typically applied to all or most.

On Attitudes Against the Homeless


MY CITY IS HOSTILE... and so is yours. Here's why.
Type Ashton | 2 June 2024 GERMANY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj7d9j3_r7A


12:17 "help homeless people not be homeless"

Depends a bit on how one does it.

Matt Walsh did a piece on a couple who had been offered "an appartment" ... the "appartment" was one in a facility for different types of disabled persons with routines partly reminiscent of how old peoples homes are run.

In other words, they were not offered an actual home, it was just that they weren't homeless any more. I generally have some liking for Matt Walsh, but that video and his reaction against El pendón estrellado (which made me look up what the Star Spangled Banner actually was about - I had no idea of the situation behind "And the rockets' red glare / The bombs bursting in air" I thought it was just generic battle scenery to show the Banner served a military purpose ... and I found out how that banner served so much more in the life of a poet who thought the Brits were taking Fort McHenry, and then they didn't!), those are my least favourite of his production.

The best option for me to not be homeless would however be for me to have an income from my writings so I could rent an appartment from my income ... some people prefer standard measures like social workers observing and so on. The factors that led to me becoming homeless actually involve precisely social workers and their misdecisions back in Sweden.

My point against Matt Walsh is, he framed it as if they were just complaining for nothing.

Evangelical TikToker Lies About Jesus, Dan McClellan Overreacts Against the Harmony of Scripture


Jesus didn't drink wine ?
Dan McClellan | 4 July 2025
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KU_xK5FNvvc


0:20 The Habacuc quote is also heavily truncated.

I like Kent Hovind's views on some Evolutionist arguments. But his view on alcohol is simply ... as coherent as Mr. Dawkins' on our origins.

Woe to him that giveth drink to his friend, and presenteth his gall, and maketh him drunk, that he may behold his nakedness
[Habacuc (Habakkuk) 2:15]

My hunch about a famous passage in Genesis 9* is, Noah had no experience with wine, Canaan had, and he wanted to see his grandfather drunk, the reason we don't see this is that the only witness to Canaan's evil after Noah droused down was Ham. Not meaning Ken, obviously.

1:37 I would say that Jesus was in fact upholding the ban on gluttony and drunkenness.

Not as extremely as St. John the Baptist, but still.

The guys He's referring to were simply exaggerating his quantities in wine and food. Or pushing down the correct limits. Some still do so.

Perhaps especially egregious when some Evangelicals similarily exaggerate someone's consumption in alcohol or push down the correct limits (drunkenness is not defined by "DUI" just because it's nicknamed "drunk driving"), when they have at the same time lost all sensitivity against gluttony.

So, no, the Bible was NOT contradicting itself, Dan.

1:50 Drinking alcohol is not a sin except in OT contexts of either Nazirism or (I think) Temple service.

Drinking excessive alcohol is a sin. Apart from Nazirs and priests serving in the Temple, drinking some alcohol was actually required at feasts.

It's still perfectly recommendable, and I do from time to time make publicity for monastic wine producers.

6:16 Over use is responsible for those deaths, except when misdiagnosed.

Some doctors with religious family background like the guy you presented and like Muslims are so bent on demonising alcohol, they will probably blame a homeless man's destroyed intestines on alcohol when the real culprit was people like them pushing to gluttony in order to "save" someone from alcohol.

Most deaths where "alcohol is responsible" are neither accidents due to drunkenness nor ethylic comas (like the one Winehouse could have avoided if the enforced cure hadn't lowered her tolerance, and maybe wouldn't have been risking if the enforced cure hadn't depressed her even after getting out), they are assessments about what destroyed a liver (in my case fat and sugar could be probable alternatives, should I endure liver failure) or caused a cancer.

* Dan McClellan is here dealing with that, but misses the parallel between Habacuc 2:15 and Noah's curse, and therefore doesn't realise why probably Canaan, though unstated, did in fact merit the curse.

What Did Ham Do to His Father Noah in Genesis 9:20–27?
Dan McClellan | 12 Febr. 2022
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cKrGiZYOxU


I've said it before, I'll say it again: Canaan was condemned to drink nothing, while serving CORRECT quantities, NOT EXCESSIVE ONES to his brethren. Perhaps after that he could drink some left over.
