Lockdowns are as ineffective as face masks. I must wear a face mask indoors and out doors despite being double vaccinated. My employer who cannot employ me under lockdown has had to check that I am double vaccinated. I will not be allowed to work until February next year. Those who claim face masks keep me safe point to studies made in hospitals where the sickly are densely populated. I can point to the ridiculous spread of Covid variants despite curfew, lockdown and face masks. Something is wrong. I am not allowed, were I to contract COVID, to treat it with Ivermectin, HCQ or Fenofibrate despite all three being effective medications. Instead I have been double vaccinated when the vaccine may be more deadly than COVID.
A Christian Evangelist who targeted Jews asked me to clarify my outrage. I do so.
Read it aloud and try to see what might be offensive to a Jewish person, even one who was not religious, but ethnically Jewish. I have Jewish family, and lost some to the holocaust. My Jewish ancestors had gone to Poland from Horowice, which gave them a name, and Jacobs, which gave them another, but last names are not a Jewish thing. You may wish forgiveness for arrogance. You are not important enough that your belief was responsible for their horrible persecution. That persecution was persistent and real and largely documented, but not entirely. Sometimes some of the persecutors asked forgiveness of G-d, but continued. Today, one wound Jews feel terribly is when evangelical Christians claim their young using sophisticated arguments the young are not conditioned to respond to. Jewish peoples do not proselytise, but raise their young in accordance with their scripture. They feel real anger when their young are taken from them by hucksters.
My family fled the pogroms of the Tsars. Before that, they fled many Christian leaders. You may have heard of Hypatia and Saint Cyril, there had been Alexandrian Jews that Cyril ‘loved’ too. The New World was discovered when a persecuted Spanish Jew named Columbus set sail. Japan’s second religion is an offshoot from Jewish slaves dating back to a hundred years or so after Jonah, it is in DNA records. And yet, despite the thousands of years of persecution, the Jewish community retains her indomitable character. I believe God did something very special when they were in that desert, and God has a plan which includes them. I don’t know what it is. But I’m not so arrogant to think I can impugn on their good will by targeting their young without consequence. Disraeli is said to have observed “Two thousands years of Christian love has left the Jews feeling nervous.” Yet Disraeli was Christian. I ask G-d for guidance on this issue, and I believe I need to be humble. And I’m saying to you that needs to inform your mission. And if that is not possible for you, go somewhere else.
NB. FB deleted a post I made on the issue
“I ask forgiveness from Jews who experienced horrible persecution because of my arrogance in believing that my theology was more important than the incessant wounds they suffered for almost 2000 years at the hands of Christians.”Read it aloud and try to see what might be offensive to a Jewish person, even one who was not religious, but ethnically Jewish.

Brian Rocker I'm really confused David at what you're getting at? Who's targeting youth? And I don't understand what's wrong with Brother Tommy or myself or anyone else repenting for the sins of our fathers like Daniel did while in Babylon. I'm really confused at your post. Can you explain so we can understand the offense you feel? Thanks!
For some, failing to understand is a gift. When the Lord finally returns and tells his people of his love, Brian and Tommy might say 'huh?'

I apologise. I'm angry. I may be dead in a few years, having been lucky to have lived so long. I see a world of promise, and I see that promise squandered by the corrupt. When I was young, I dreamt of a positive answer to that eternal question, is their intelligent life on Earth? Andrews, Biden and Trudeau say 'no'

My name is David Daniel Ball I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.
I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections.
I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. I had reported the issue responsibly and had not known I'd blown the whistle. The embarrassed left wing government had responded by imposition of a nationwide ban on the use of peanut butter in canteens, despite failing to address the issue of peanut allergy appropriately.
I've been de-platformed on Facebook and twitter despite not being an activist. Twitter did not like me asking for Obama to face justice in 2011. FB gave no specific reason for removing me following Jan 6th 2021 in Washington DC where a policeman killed an unarmed woman, so a crowd would know he was in control.

Australia moves towards an election federally. And the director of the Liberal Party infuriates me, asking me for money to support his AGW hucksterism that isn't as bad as the ALP one. It still is not good policy.
Today, 25th Sept 2021 I carry fake news
The fake news comes from a left wing site called "The Hill"
In the article on the Arizona draft Audit into 2020 election fraudulently given Biden, we are told there were no accidents and that a simple vote count shows Biden won. However, the simple vote count does not show that at all. It shows that the voter fraud was wilful and deliberate. It shows that the parties behind the fraud covered their tracks. Now for the parts of the audit that have been opposed. A check of signatures. The system data showing when and how votes were cast. That will take longer because the investigation has been impeded.
A successful withdrawal was what was engineered at Gallipolli, where, over three days troops pulled out of defended positions and left on ships .. nobody died. That was war. Nobody was left behind. Because of the failure, WW1 was prolonged another two and a half years, Russia collapsed etc etc. The price of failure was big. But the retreat was a success. In contrast, Biden's retreat was utter failure in Afghanistan.
Editorial on Covid policy failure
It is apparent COVID policy is political, not health related. However health advice has been political and not health related. Public health has been corrupted. Media has failed. Judiciary is corrupt. Defence is incompetent. The thin blue line has been cut. And, elder abuse is apparent from the Presidential office through to the ordinary NYC retirement home. On the plus side, there is an emerging possibility of an empty gesture securing the white house for womyn on behalf of one raised in Canada. Dan Andrews' lockdown has cancelled AA meetings. Go the beers. Playgrounds have been shut down state wide and even a curfew has been re-imposed. There is no science showing any such measure addresses COVID, but we know it allows the government to assert authority.

Editorial Biden's Afghan failure culminated from Obama's Afghan lies
Afghanistan is in flames as Biden begins bombing runs on terrorists as he seeks to negotiate with them. US soldiers have been killed after a strategic error left an exposed airport the only means of Americans and their allies to flee. Biden says those that remained behind wanted to, after fleeing Afghans clinging to a wing and fuselage of an aircraft plummet to their deaths. After Biden had said the Afghan government would stand following US withdrawal. US left behind billions of dollars of weapons Chicago gangs look on with shock and awe. The Taliban will not use a fleet of Blackhawk helicopters. China will.
So who is responsible for the failure? According to Biden, the buck stops with him, and he views it as a Dunkirk like success, when he is not looking at his watch waiting for mourning to end of soldiers that died in his service. Biden also feels any mistake was made by Donald Trump as NK begins nuclear weapons work. The US military have included critical junior officers in their lists of personal pronouns for enemies. What is a personal pronoun for a failed President?
Editorial on God In answer to Dinesh Dsousa's article
The God the atheists refute is not real, but is a ridiculous, impossible figure. God is real. God as He is revealed in the Bible is a fact. However, as ridiculous as the atheists arguments are, they are instructive. God made a bridge He could not cross (man's rejection of Him). God bridged that gap with Jesus. Thing is, atheists don't believe that that gap is real.
In my Sermon on a Miracle I describe how God gave a childless woman who could not bear children, prayed for children, family. He did that. And he did not use supernatural measures.
God is real. God does the impossible. God is not subject to our demands. God answers prayer. Sometimes bad people prosper for a time. All those statements are true.
God is worthy of praise. Atheists don't see it, but they have countless examples of it, from their own lives to the works of those they admire. In the Revelations of the Holy Spirit I underscore and outline some of what God does that even atheists call for.
We need god, but even in a world without God, there is a need for Him.

From the Bible, Colossians 1
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
To God’s holy people in Colossae, the faithful brothers and sisters in Christ:
Grace and peace to you from God our Father.
Thanksgiving and Prayer
We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all God’s people— the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world—just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God’s grace. You learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, and who also told us of your love in the Spirit.
For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
The Supremacy of the Son of God
The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.
Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior. But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation— if you continue in your faith, established and firm, and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel. This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.
Paul’s Labor for the Church
Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness— the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the Lord’s people. To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ. To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me.

Here is a video I made Don't cry for me Argentina
"Don't Cry for Me Argentina" is the best-known song from the 1978 musical Evita with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice. Sung by the title character Eva Peron, it was titled "It's Only Your Lover Returning" before Rice settled on the eventual name. It appears early in the second act as Evita addresses the crowd from the balcony of the Casa Rosada and features a sweeping melody tied to broad emotional themes of regret and defiance, characteristic of Lloyd Webber's most popular songs.

Don't give up on hope. Today is the anniversary of an unfair fight which changed the world forever. The Battle of Karbala in 680 AD pitted a caravan of 110 being slaughtered by some thirty thousand. The thirty thousand were following the established but illegitimate rule of Yazidi. Husayn ibn Ali was a descendent of Mohammed and a son of Fatimah, Mohammed's daughter who was the only one to survive to adulthood. Yazidi was the son of a usurper whom had promised to not promote his son. But the guy with all the men won. Husayn had had a six month old son who was also beheaded following the battle. It is said by some that an angel intervened and replaced Husayn with another. The result of the battle is the schism between Sunni and Shia.
Tony Abbott has spoken brilliantly and at length in London on Climate change. But pigs with their snouts in a $100 trillion trough can't see the truths spoken. Milo has owned channel 10 abusers who labeled him a pedophile advocate. So Channel 10 assembled a panel to discuss him, without him, the next morning, throwing around the same abuse.
However the prize of the day goes to the Age which published an article claiming inequity for disabled kids in private schools getting too much public money. The Age did not say the children, or their guardians, were investing the money wisely. They don't receive the money at all. The money goes to education bodies, not the schools. So the Age is campaigning against disabled kids getting their educational needs met. The Age has not said it, but an alternative is to nationalise private schools. It would lower academic standards and make resources more scarce for everyone. But then the government could seize the assets of those who once sent children to private schools. That would be fair, right? For those who do not know, what the funding does is provide for disabled students so they can be mainstreamed, and so not cost as much to the public purse.

Waleed Aly 'has demolished Trump' is a headline from news.com.au. The article, written by Matt Young claims Waleed has editorialised against Trump in an effort to demolish him. It is then written that all Waleed has done is launch a hashtag saying Trump is not a laughing matter. Such is the near Sisyphus endurance trial (condemned to roll a boulder up a hill, and each day the boulder is at the bottom) faced by any conservative leader. The press will hate him even after he wins. They will hate him as his popularity soars. They will hate him until he crashes. And every achievement they will deny or despise. What is the anger felt to Nixon? To Reagan? To Bush? What is the 'love' felt for Kennedy? For LBJ? For Carter? For Clinton? For Obama? Bush fought wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and oversaw the beginnings of an Arab Spring of democracy. Bush increased debt by some $6 trillion. Obama has not fought a protracted war but conceded much. Obama debt is about $12 trillion. On any objective measure, relative to B43, O44 is a failure. But in the fantasy land of journalists, where it doesn't matter what people say or think, or what politicians do if they are tribally correct, Obama is laudable. But the reality, people that support Hillary are saying neither candidate is worthwhile. People who support Trump are saying he is human, but he will get the job done of #MakingAmericaGreatAgain

Malcolm Turnbull, who staged a coup recently and took the PM's position from a much better man, has cracked a joke at a Liberal Party meeting, and been booed. His joke was to claim the Liberal Party had no factions, even though it was a Liberal Party faction which had undermined Mr Abbott. Turnbull has an opportunity to do things Abbott wouldn't. But Abbott would not have done things recklessly stupid and Turnbull, in showing a difference between himself and Mr Abbott, may have fallen into the same trap Mr Shorten has continuously. Doing something stupid in order to be different. It is a reminder of the time when Rudd had been told that there was nothing effective Australia could do about climate change and he said "We have to do something. And Australians will understand that."At the moment, the poor leadership of Turnbull has angry and uneducated Australians marching against 'political violence.' Political violence which threatens to have stray children shooting random good people in the back of the head and taunting survivors shouting political slogans like "Allahu Akbar" while waiting to be killed by good people. Meanwhile, people whom have received the leadership which Turnbull has abrogated don't seem to understand that such terrorism bring Islam into disrepute, and were it to happen in the land of their birth, might result in them being killed by a decision of a sharia court, which is the usual sentence for bringing Islam into disrepute.

Climate Change Alarmism
Climate scientists chose the top 50 models of climate change and 95% of those models showed the Antarctic Sea Ice would decrease over the next thirty years. Instead, the sea ice has increased to record levels never before measured by satellite. Dr Guy Williams, a liar, says “In some ways it’s a bit counterintuitive for people trying to understand how global warming is affecting our polar regions, but in fact it’s actually completely in line with how climate scientists expect Antarctica and the Southern Ocean to respond..” All government is about choices in using resources. Either money is spent efficiently on power, or it is wasted, and denied for other purposes. As ANU has found.
Great moments in Violence
A father and son in Sydney's North West have gone to a fight set up on Facebook and are now fighting for their lives. ALP has plans to pay for the war against ISIL. They will take it from our children. Idiots are arrested after trespassing on ASIO grounds. They were lucky not to be killed. Compassion, like that given by Italy's socialists has killed 3072 migrants so far this year.
Injustice issues
Mr Bolt has been denied justice by a wrongful ruling on his case over 18c. He is not alone in facing injustice. I too have not been able to get satisfaction. Only there is a media black out on my issue which goes with an illegal employment black list. And while I'm sympathetic overAndrew's issue, and support him in his call to overturn the bad law of 18c, I sorely feel I have been sold down the river. Meanwhile senior ABC personnel proudly announce they abuse the ABC charter. However, they aren't alone in their bias. However, Channel 7 or Channel 9 don't rely on tax payer funds for their bias.

Only there is a media black out on my issue which goes with an illegal employment black list. And while I'm sympathetic overAndrew's issue, and support him in his call to overturn the bad law of 18c, I sorely feel I have been sold down the river. Meanwhile senior ABC personnel proudly announce they abuse the ABC charter. However, they aren't alone in their bias. However, Channel 7 or Channel 9 don't rely on tax payer funds for their bias.
From 2013
Police giving way to antisocial criminals is not good. Pats on the back to the Victoria Police for their improvement. But why was it ever otherwise? Police living in fear of litigation for their work in keeping the peace does not benefit the community, and never has. It comes back to the role of policing under government policy. and ALP policy is not friendly on good people. Good people are hurt as bad people run rampant. Consider that, when you think about defending the Green Pirates who assaulted a Russian installation on the high seas. Apparently those pirates had drugs too .. possibly recreational. I hope they can relax in their prison cells in Siberia. There is no such thing as a safe gangland shooting, and the bikie war being waged around Australia has links to ALP policy. From borders welcoming desperate people who risk death and pay pirates substantially well, to migrants who view good people as worthy of contempt and death for their religion, race or ethnicity. Through to policies that are soft on criminals and despise victims.
Many socialist leaders around the world are rich and privileged. France nearly had a socialist PM who thought nothing of using hard working migrant women for sex. It doesn't represent core conservative values, but as a protest against conservative values it is offensive to good people in the community. One doesn't want a PM who exercises power in that way, indulging in pleasuring themselves at the expense of their nation. Like Obama playing golf on the US dime, as he tries to foist a health system that would include the poorest ten million people without actually hiring a single doctor, but by vastly enlarging a bureaucracy. The truth is that one cannot own what they cannot afford. The GOP might meekly pass the bad bill, as Democrats beg them to, but eventually the US would have to stop .. and many more than 10 million would miss out. Obama wants Obamacare as a legacy, but it will be debt and despair instead.
Want to hear a bad joke? Try the Uniting Church. They have embraced the poor by becoming poor themselves .. I read somewhere God rewards those who are good with the detail ..

Today's Old Testament reading: Isaiah 30-31
The Kingdom of Righteousness
1 See, a king will reign in righteousness
and rulers will rule with justice.
2 Each one will be like a shelter from the wind
and a refuge from the storm,
like streams of water in the desert
and the shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land.3 Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed,
and the ears of those who hear will listen.
4 The fearful heart will know and understand,
and the stammering tongue will be fluent and clear.
5 No longer will the fool be called noble
nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
6 For fools speak folly,
their hearts are bent on evil:
They practice ungodliness
and spread error concerning the LORD;
the hungry they leave empty
and from the thirsty they withhold water.
7 Scoundrels use wicked methods,
they make up evil schemes
to destroy the poor with lies,
even when the plea of the needy is just.
8 But the noble make noble plans,
and by noble deeds they stand.
and rulers will rule with justice.

Today's New Testament reading: Colossians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,2 To God’s holy people in Colossae, the faithful brothers and sisters in Christ:Grace and peace to you from God our Father.
Thanksgiving and Prayer
3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, 4because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all God’s people— 5 the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel 6that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world—just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God’s grace. 7 You learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, 8 and who also told us of your love in the Spirit....

Morning
In some sense the path to heaven is very safe, but in other respects there is no road so dangerous. It is beset with difficulties. One false step (and how easy it is to take that if grace be absent), and down we go. What a slippery path is that which some of us have to tread! How many times have we to exclaim with the Psalmist, "My feet were almost gone, my steps had well nigh slipped." If we were strong, sure-footed mountaineers, this would not matter so much; but in ourselves, how weak we are! In the best roads we soon falter, in the smoothest paths we quickly stumble. These feeble knees of ours can scarcely support our tottering weight. A straw may throw us, and a pebble can wound us; we are mere children tremblingly taking our first steps in the walk of faith, our heavenly Father holds us by the arms or we should soon be down. Oh, if we are kept from falling, how must we bless the patient power which watches over us day by day! Think, how prone we are to sin, how apt to choose danger, how strong our tendency to cast ourselves down, and these reflections will make us sing more sweetly than we have ever done, "Glory be to him, who is able to keep us from falling." We have many foes who try to push us down. The road is rough and we are weak, but in addition to this, enemies lurk in ambush, who rush out when we least expect them, and labour to trip us up, or hurl us down the nearest precipice. Only an Almighty arm can preserve us from these unseen foes, who are seeking to destroy us. Such an arm is engaged for our defence. He is faithful that hath promised, and he is able to keep us from falling, so that with a deep sense of our utter weakness, we may cherish a firm belief in our perfect safety, and say, with joyful confidence,
"Against me earth and hell combine,
But on my side is power divine;
Jesus is all, and he is mine!"
Evening
Genuine seekers who as yet have not obtained the blessing, may take comfort from the story before us. The Saviour did not at once bestow the blessing, even though the woman had great faith in him. He intended to give it, but he waited awhile. "He answered her not a word." Were not her prayers good? Never better in the world. Was not her case needy? Sorrowfully needy. Did she not feel her need sufficiently? She felt it overwhelmingly. Was she not earnest enough? She was intensely so. Had she no faith? She had such a high degree of it that even Jesus wondered, and said, "O woman, great is thy faith." See then, although it is true that faith brings peace, yet it does not always bring it instantaneously. There may be certain reasons calling for the trial of faith, rather than the reward of faith. Genuine faith may be in the soul like a hidden seed, but as yet it may not have budded and blossomed into joy and peace. A painful silence from the Saviour is the grievous trial of many a seeking soul, but heavier still is the affliction of a harsh cutting reply such as this, "It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs." Many in waiting upon the Lord find immediate delight, but this is not the case with all. Some, like the jailer, are in a moment turned from darkness to light, but others are plants of slower growth. A deeper sense of sin may be given to you instead of a sense of pardon, and in such a case you will have need of patience to bear the heavy blow. Ah! poor heart, though Christ beat and bruise thee, or even slay thee, trust him; though he should give thee an angry word, believe in the love of his heart. Do not, I beseech thee, give up seeking or trusting my Master, because thou hast not yet obtained the conscious joy which thou longest for. Cast thyself on him, and perseveringly depend even where thou canst not rejoicingly hope.

I am a decent man and don't care for the abuse given me. I created a video raising awareness of anti police feeling among western communities. I chose the senseless killing of Nicola Cotton, a Louisiana policewoman who joined post Katrina, to highlight the issue. I did this in order to get an income after having been illegally blacklisted from work in NSW for being a whistleblower. I have not done anything wrong. Local council appointees refused to endorse my work, so I did it for free. Youtube's Adsence refused to allow me to profit from their marketing it. Meanwhile, I am hostage to abysmal political leadership and hopeless journalists. My shopfront has opened on Facebook.

I am publishing a book called Bread of Life: January.
Bread of Life is a daily bible quote with a layman's understanding of the meaning. I give one quote for each day, and also a series of personal stories illustrating key concepts eg Who is God? What is a miracle? Why is there tragedy?
January is the first of the anticipated year-long work of thirteen books. One for each month and the whole year. It costs to publish. It (Kindle version) should retail at about $2US online, but the paperback version would cost more, according to production cost.If you have a heart for giving, I fundraise at gofund.me/27tkwuc (Gofundme finished the fund raiser, 2017)
