Nephilim aka deviantone's blog: "My insane rants"

I copied this from a friends blog, and i agree with him 100% it was awesome. FreedomWave

@ CherryTAP This is a statement that was read over the PA system at the football game at Roane County High School, Kingston, Tennessee, by school Principal, Jody McLeod. "It has always been the custom at Roane County High School football games, to say a prayer and play the National Anthem, to honor God and Country." Due to a recent ruling by the Supreme Court, I am told that saying a Prayer is a violation of Federal Case Law. As I understand the law at this time, I can use this public facility to approve of sexual perversion and call it "an alternate lifestyle," and if someone is offended, that's OK. I can use it to condone sexual promiscuity, by dispensing condoms and calling it, "safe sex." If someone is offended, that's OK. I can even use this public facility to present the merits of killing an unborn baby as a "viable means of birth control." If someone is offended, no problem... I can designate a school day as "Earth Day" and involve students in activities to worship religiously and praise the goddess "Mother Earth" and call it "ecology." I can use literature, videos and presentations in the classroom that depicts people with strong, traditional Christian convictions as "simple minded" and "ignorant" and call it "enlightenment." However, if anyone uses this facility to honor GOD and to ask HIM to Bless this event with safety and good sportsmanship, then Federal Case Law is violated. This appears to be inconsistent at best, and at worst, diabolical. Apparently, we are to be tolerant of everything and anyone, except GOD and HIS Commandments. Nevertheless, as a school principal, I frequently ask staff and students to abide by rules with which they do not necessarily agree. For me to do otherwise would be inconsistent at best, and at worst, hypocritical... I suffer from that affliction enough unintentionally. I certainly do not need to add an intentional transgression. For this reason, I shall "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's," and refrain from praying at this time. "However, if you feel inspired to honor, praise and thank GOD and ask HIM, in the name of JESUS, to Bless this event, please feel free to do so. As far as I know, that's not against the law----yet." One by one, the people in the stands bowed their heads, held hands with one another and began to pray. They prayed in the stands. They prayed in the team huddles. They prayed at the concession stand and they prayed in the Announcer's Box! The only place they didn't pray was in the Supreme Court of the United States of America - the Seat of "Justice" in the "one nation, under GOD." Somehow, Kingston, Tennessee Remembered what so many have forgotten. We are given the Freedom OF Religion, not the Freedom FROM Religion. Praise GOD that HIS remnant remains! --------------------------------------- The information above was given to get to this point. Each day we are plagued with a host of disrespectful young people who say and do pretty much whatever feels good to them without regard of how if affects others. Their value of "right" is deminished and seem to have no meaning to some. The value of "life" is deminished to the point of no respect for anyones life. The days of "liviing to fight another day" is almost a dream as so many lives are taken over so simple things as a geographical location. Our value system is almost a dream as we are plaued with school shootings, having metal detectors at the front doors to assure the safety of many of our youth in the school systems throughout the US. When will the madness end? It should never have started in the beginning. The value system that was in place many years ago that taught a value that was the foundation of our great nation. This same value system that was in our schools was the only exposure many of our youth got. Our constitution was primarily written from the rules and values the bible is teaching us. Now we all face the removal of both God and Country from our school system. When will the madness stop? The days of "Big Momma" - the pillar and foundation of the family is almost a dream as well. When will the madness stop? There was a time when the most respected people in our communities were the Preacher and the Teacher. Now many of our disrespectful youth will cuss out a preacher as quick as they will cuss out a teacher and the most disturbing part is that some of the parents will give 100% suport to these disrespectful young people and would be ready to do the same cussing and fussing if anyone tells their kids anything - the right thing. People, when will the madness stop??? There are still some extremely respectful young people out there. I am concerned about our and their future because that handful of youth have the future in their hands. Will there be enough to save these values that were so easily taken away from us by those in charge? Will we ever get it back? The answer is "Yes We Can!!!! ...but this wave of value loss must be taken back UP the same road from whence it came... back up the chain back UP to the to the government offices that allowed this to happen. Will We Ever Get It Back?? I say YES We Will.... Then and only then can we stop the Maddness........ Many Blessings to You and Yours......

This is GREAT!!!!! *You can properly pronounce Corsicana, Ennis, Waxahachie, Palestine, Decatur, Wichita Falls, San Antonio, Waco, and Amarillo. *A tornado warning siren is your signal to go out in the yard and look for a funnel. *You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day. *You know that the true value of a parking space is not determined by the distance to the door, but by the availability of shade. *You think everyone from a bigger city has an accent. ****You measure distance in minutes. * *Little Smokies are something you serve only for special occasions. *You listen to the weather forecast before picking out an outfit. *You know cowpies are not made of beef. *Someone you know has used a football schedule to plan their wedding date. *You have known someone who has had one belt buckle bigger than your fist. *You aren't surprised to find movie rental, ammunition, and bait all in the same store. *A Mercedes Benz is not a status symbol.

1.No matter how furtive or quick the glance, a woman always know when youre looking at her breast. 2. A good woman is as excited about a gift that cost nothing as she is about a gift that cost a lot. ( The perfect, quirky gift that shows that you’ve been listening is worth twice the value of anything youd find at Tiffany’s.) 3.Never ask a woman why she’s mad at you - she will only get madder for your not knowing 4. An unsolicited kiss is to a woman what free play-off tickets are to a man. Even better, flowers on days that arent Valentines Day. Anniversaries, or birthdays. 5. Sometimes woman want it when you don’t, and for you not to give in on such occasions set a terrible precedent. 6. If youre buying her a sex toy, do not presume she wants the biggest one - most likely she does not. 7. How to lovate the G-spot: Aim for it, and then askher if your aim is true. ( that said, if you ask every step of the way, you’ll begin to remind her of her gynecologist. 8. The woman-on-top position allows her more control over her destiny - and allows many men more contro over their duration. ( however, that does not excuse watching television while she deso all the work.) 9. It is crucially important that you do not have sex the same way every time. ( put another way: having sex the same way every time makes people want to have sex with different people just to vary things.) 10. Love does not mean never having to say youre sorry. It means having to say youre sorry over and ovr again, in new and different ways, ever day, every week, every month, even when you don’t want to, every year, until God grants you his mercy and you finally, blissfully, die. P.S.: “menage a trois” is French for “ in your dreams.” P.P.S.: Nobody actually eats the edible panties

ahhhhhh ok i know you all have been waiting for the day when i come with some more ignant ( slang for ignorant for all those who think they are english teachers) ( btw FU its my blog and i will write and spell how i want to , i happen to enjoy it and have fun with it) but thats getting a little bit off track. SO ANYWAY, here we are another episode in cherry tap...lets talk about the dreaded salute. NOW, first of all salutes ARE NOT REQUIRED. they ARE AN OPTION. you DONT HAVE TO POST ONE. however the new cherrytap rule is basically in a nutshell if you want to advance in levels then you must post a salute. awhhhhhhh poor thing, you cant use a pic of angelina jolie and say its you anymore to become a top cherry. GET THE FUCK OVER IT. are you SO dumb you dont realize that its a rule that helps YOU. if ever a rule they had made sense i would think this would be it. Now of course there will be people to find a way around it. too many times have a read someones DUMB ASS...excuse me a moment for those who didnt quite understand me i said DUMB....ASS and just in case that wasnt clear STUPID FUCK. IDIOTIC comments saying "I can fake it, all i have to do is get a friend or neighbor to sit in front of the computer and hold up a sign"..now how fucking stupid is that? well YES you could do some dumb shit like that, because...well....err....YOU ARE A FUCKING MORON. lets see, so you get your stupid friend to sit with your dumb ass and take a pic holding up a sign. so you now have ONE pic of that person and face to post up and lie and say its you. SO WHAT...YOURE STILL A MORON. the salute doesnt stop ALL THE FAKES, its only reduces the numbers. and you would have to be a complete dumbass not to see that. do you REALLY think that all the fakes would go through that trouble ESPECIALLY since most of the time their fake pics are of somebody else off the internet and not their neighborhood friends. another thing. HOW THA HELL can you have 231856143 webcam pics up in your profile of yourself and then spit some shyt about not being able to post a salute...YOURE AN IDIOT. and all those of you with the pics of your familes and such, and have pics of you with your kids, you at the beach and mowing the lawn and sitting on grandpas busted ass tractor with straw in your mouth, or in your dirty ass bedroom with empty pizza boxes all over the place..you need to get a clue as well. its not that anyone is calling your jacked up ass picture fake, and nobody wants to steal your picture, but you have to realize not everybodies pics are like that. too many times have you run into models, and wanna be models, and all that type of shyt with perfect hair, make-up and lighting pics, and then someone on the other end swearing its them. in case you havent figured it out, thats how rules come about, some dumb ass does something and then there is a rule made that affects everybody. stopping whinning and being a little bitch. GET OVER IT. yes a few people know how to use photoshop and might be able to fake one good enough, but AGAIN not the masses and the numbers would still reduce. dont be a dumb fuck. now on another note. steadily i hear mufukas talking about i dont care about cherry points, i dont care about leveling etc" why should i have to post a salute, my friends know i'm real, i'm only hear for my friends and thats all that counts" yadda yadda yadda well thats fine, thats why you are supposed to be here. but stil.. DONT BE A DUMBASS. if that is the case and that is true, you are only here for your friends and you dont care about leveling or cherry points. then STFU and stop bitching about salutes. the only way they affect you is in leveling and getting points...so that makes you a fucking liar or a dumbass....you choose. if its a matter of principle, then fine so be it. dont post one, and stop bitching and making up useless arguments that dont make any logical sense, yes we already know your pic is real, most people that steal pics and use them dont pic family photos and they usually use a pic of someone that (and of course this sounds offensive, but fuckin face it)a pic of someone that is pretty fuckin attractive, in shape, and the typical sterotype of what they think guys want to see. again, DONT BE A STUPID SHIT. i've heard all these arguments and read all these statements about excercising their right for this and that yadda yadda blah blah bullshit..rules are rules STFU UP YOU DUMBASS, you probably dont even know what rights you have and dont have, as a matter of fact, I KNOW YOU DONT KNOW so stop trying to sound smarter than what your dumbass really knows. you may have this right or that right, but they have the right to kick your dumbass off the website, they have the right to make rules as they see fit on the website you fucking moron. everywhere you go there are rules, you dont have to like them but you DO have to follow them to continue to enjoy whatever said establishment has. so stop being a crying little dickhead and STFU. now some will find this funny and some will get offended. those that get offended..then i'm probably talking about you. those that laugh..glad i could entertain you.. and believe it or not, even though it may sound like it, i'm not even angry...its just stupid

Growing up in Texas Armadillos sleep in the middle of the road with all four feet in the air. So do Possum There are 5,000 types of snakes and 4,998 live in Texas and may be found in your backyard at anytime of the year. There are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 live in Texas, plus a few no one has ever seen before and they do live in your backyard, your front yard your garage your shed your house... Raccoons will test your melon crop, and let you know when they are ripe. They also like trash cans. If it grows, it will stick you. If it crawls, it will bite you! And either one will itch like fire. Nothing will kill a mesquite tree. But the do make the grilled meats taste good. There are valid reasons some people put razor wire around their house. If the razor wire is up, they probably have a shot gun too! A tractor is NOT an all terrain vehicle. They do get stuck. The wind blows at 90 mph from Oct 2 till June 25; then it stops totally until October 2. Onced and twiced are words. Coldbeer is one word People actually grow and eat okra. It is best fried. Green grass DOES burn. When you live in the country you don't have to buy a dog. City people drop them off at your front gate in the middle of the night. The sound of coyotes howling at night only sounds good for the first few weeks. When a buzzard sits on the fence and stares at you, it's time to see a doctor. Fix-in-to is one word. So is Around-to-it There ain't no such thing as "lunch". There is only breakfast, dinner and then there's supper. "Sweetened ice tea" is appropriate for all meals, and you start drinking it when you are two. You also give it to babies for colic..Just a tid-bit. That's how you wean your baby from the bottle. Give'em some sweet tea and they take to a cup in minutes. "Backwards and forwards" means I know everything about you. "Jeet?" is actually a phrase meaning, "Did you eat?" You don't have to wear a watch because it doesn't matter what time it is. You work until you're done, or it's too dark to see. You measure distance in minutes or hours. You can switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day. Stores don't have bags. They have sacks. You see cars with the engine running in the Wal-mart parking lot with no one in them, no matter what time of the year. All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit or a vegetable. You install security lights on your house and garage, and leave both unlocked. You carry jumper cables for your own car. You know what "cow tipping" and "snipe hunting" are. You only have four spices in your kitchen: Salt, Pepper, Ketchup, and Tabasco. You think everyone from north of Dallas has an accent The local papers cover national and international news on one page, but require six pages to cover Friday night high school football. The first day of deer season is a state holiday. You find 100 degrees a "tad" warm. The four seasons are: Almost summer, summer, still summer and Christmas You know whether another Texan is from East, West, North, or South Texas as soon as he opens his mouth. Going to Wal-mart is a favorite past-time known as "goin Wal-Martin" or "off to Wally-world". You describe the first cool snap (below 70 degrees) as good chili-eatin' weather. A carbonated soft drink isn't a soda, cola, or pop....It's a Coke regardless of brand or flavor.

And as the Great Sam Houston once said "Texas could survive without the United States, but the United States could not survive without TEXAS!"

ok i labled this one #1 because i'm SURE there will be more to come. besides i get side tracked easily while ranting so i know i'll forget something or loose my train of thought and have to come back again..... so much for short term memory, and if you got that joke then shame on you....lol anyway, i just read this mum about religion, well actually it was about the bible. and it asked if people believed everything thats in it. and of course there where several diff answers and view points. but my view is this. regardless of what you believe, instead of getting wrapped up in all the details why not look at the whole picture. YES the story tells you about jesus, etc... but instead get what its trying to tell you. is it soooooo wrong to tell people to treat each other right, to act like decent human beings? thats basically what it boils down to. You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord your God Remember the Sabbath day, and keep it holy Honor your father and your mother You shall not kill. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. You shall not covet anything that is not your own. You shall not covet your neighbor's house... those are the ten commandments, now i can understand if you worship someone else or something else how you wouldnt want to follow the first couple, but the ones i have made bold and underlined...what tha hell is wrong with following those, whats wrong with telling people that. morals and ethics had to start out somewhere in the picture, so who determined what they would be. something in people, in all societies, tells you its wrong to kill, that you should fuck with another mans woman, that you shoulnt take their shit. i always hear people yap that shyt about this aint true and that aint true yadda yadda yadda. and whats worse is people have enough nerve to argue about it so pationatley ( for or against )but there isnt any belief with absolute proof and yet people argue it all the time. fact of the matter is YOU DONT KNOW UNTIL YOU DIE. thats the whole thing about having faith. faith is uncertain, faith is unknowing, faith is just THAT...FAITH. people will put their faith in other people in an instant, they even have faith in football and basketball teams. why not have faith in something larger than you? in whatever higher power you believe in, but dont try and argue someone elses down...thats just stupid. you can debate and discuss points of view, but to try and argue them down. i'll tell you this much, you provide proof of yours then i'm good, but until you can provide solid proof, why bother. the bible ( story of jesus ) was passed down for years. even before the bible was written. even when it WAS written it was hand duplicated, edited and has been through hell and back. picked apart, supported by some and knocked down by others. so of course it cant be taken as ALL LITERAL but thats what i mean by dont forget the big picture. just treat each other right and remember the philosophy behind the story.
