===War Against God===

[[How Congress or a State can make Courts Uncensor God]]

[[Open letter to Jeff Angelo, WHO Radio, and Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds]]

You invited listeners, February 8, a week ago, to talk you out of your belief that satanists have a perfect right under the Constitution to display their idol at the state capitol, to host after-school Satan clubs, and to send their own “pastors” into schools when that bill passes. 

Thank you for giving me something to do to fill up my week.

===Vaccines, Masks, Censors===

[[VA_Hospital,_asked_for_medical_justification_for_mask_policy,_consults_lawyers]]

This is a record of my interaction with the Veterans Administration Hospital of central Iowa about their requirement that everyone wear a mask all the time they are in the hospital. I showed them the research proving masks are completely ineffective at stopping covid, but they do a magnificent job of blocking oxygen so that wearers' oxygen levels drop and carbon dioxide levels rise, causing a wide variety of serious medical issues.

I had a few exchanges with VA staff, followed by attempts to involve newspapers to report it, and lawyers to sue in federal court.

The basis of my complaint is in two parts: Section One explains in what sense blind faith in rituals proved by research to accomplish nothing, loaded with social rejection of anyone who questions them, runs towards the essence of the False Gods of primitive paganism and offends the Biblical importance placed on Truth. Section Two summarizes tons of research showing that masks and vaccines don't help but harm, while covid tests are very unreliable. 

[[God's Coronavirus Cure in 3 Verses]] (Probably a situation that brings most politics to a screeching halt, shutting down entire legislatures, should be classified as "political")

[[Application_for_Religious/Secular Exemption from Mask Vaccine & testing_Mandates]]

'''Section One''' of this Application explains (1) my reverence for Truth and evidence, (2) the Bible’s emphasis on Truth and evidence, (3) Bible heroes who resisted health laws not based on reality, (4) why mask and vaccine mandates which cannot rationally claim support from evidence must be classified as “religious”, and are presented as false gods, and (5) what the Bible says about bowing down to false gods, and the importance of openly, decisively disclaiming them. Section One presents legal analysis of the First Amendment prohibition of “establishment of religion”, as well as theological analysis. 

[[Application for Secular/Religious Exemption from Mask/Vaccine Mandate - Section Two, The Evidence]] '''Section Two''' of this Application reviews medical research that shows (1) masks do not slow covid spread with any “statistical significance”, (2) masks cause serious medical and emotional problems, most tragically in children, (3) vaccines cause more deaths than covid, and (4) government blockage of proven covid cures points to some other government purpose than reducing covid. But you probably don’t need this evidence; you probably have plenty of your own, or you wouldn’t want an exemption. This information is widely available, and expands daily, so Section Two is out of date anyway. (Section Two also lists arguments common in other Applications for Religious Exemption: vaccines are developed from a murdered baby, and the Bible calls us to treat our bodies as the Temple of God.)

[[The “Outlawing Abortion in Compliance with Unanimous Court-Recognized Evidence that Abortion is Murder” Act]] '''A strategy of Life that relies on the Author of Life''' Featuring Nuggets from the 140 Amicus Briefs filed in ''Dobbs v. Jackson'' (which overturned ''Roe v. Wade'' June 24, 2022. "Amicus briefs", also called "Friend of Court" briefs, are filed by groups with a strong interest in the case, such as prolife and prodeath groups, who are not direct parties to the case but who will be affected by the outcome.)

'''Some claims are so unacceptable that it becomes almost irrelevant whether they are true, but some Truths are so irrefutable that censorship fails, like Darkness trying to put out Light, John 1:5.''' 

[[Ending Legal Abortio
n in Every State in about a Year]] (This is an earlier, shorter draft of the preceding article.) By including the irrefutable, unanimous, unchallenged evidence that babies are fully human, with conscious souls, in the "findings of facts" of a prolife law, courts are forced to address that fact when they review the law. It is impossible for any judge to squarely address that evidence and keep abortion legal, in ANY state. It is just as impossible for any news reporter or Democrat to squarely address this evidence, and still defend abortion. Therefore if ''any'' prolife lawmaker anywhere in America can be found to simply INTRODUCE a prolife bill with these Findings of Facts, this evidence will take on a life of its own and be impossible to censor for long. Some claims are so unacceptable that it becomes almost irrelevant whether they are true; likewise, some truths so challenge the censors that they are like Light in Darkness which Darkness can no longer put out, John 1:5. 

[[Alito Draft Treats ITS A BABY as a Matter of Opinion]] This letter written to six conservative Supreme Court justices responds to several outrageous quotes in the leaked draft by Justice Alito, and on their statements during oral arguments the previous December, in which they said they couldn't tell if unborn babies are real people, which should flabbergast any prolifer. I sent this letter June 15, 2022 BEFORE their ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson repealing Roe v. Wade. I gave evidence they should respect that babies really are people, which makes killing them legally recognizable as murder. They had said since they can't tell, voters should decide, through their elected state representatives. 

I answered that the right to murder cannot be on any ballot. I reminded them that the 14th Amendment was passed specifically to protect those who “as a matter of law” were never treated as “persons in the whole sense”. I said that repealing Roe while calling ITS A BABY a Matter of Opinion won't end aborticide cases. I pointed out that repealing Roe, leaving liberal states free to continue the slaughter, is no better than Dred Scott v. Sandford which left liberal states free to continue the slavery. 

They had written that voters must decide whether to murder babies based on the "social value" voters place on babies. I responded that the "social value" that women have to be allowed to kill babies in order to have "full equality" is held by most non-Christian religions and philosophies but is alien to "all men are created equal...in the Image of God". I pointed out that every court-recognized fact finder that has taken a position has ruled that "It's a Baby!" If the unanimous ruling of every court-recognized fact finder is not enough for a judge to know a fact, how can any judge ever know anything? I acknowledged that every state appellate court in abortion prevention cases said Roe made the FACT that babies are people irrelevant, by ruling that babies are NOT people "as a matter of law". Besides pointing out that the Supreme Court actually never said such nonsense, the 14th Amendment protects all who are IN FACT humans. What is irrelevant is whether they are “persons” “as a matter of law”. Even Roe treated ITS A BABY as a fact question, for fact finders.

[[ND_Court_Gives_Moms_Fundamental_Right to_Save_Themselves_from_their_Babies]] 


[[Troubling Excerpts & Analysis from Dobbs v. Jackson]] My letter to SCOTUS didn't improve their understanding of babies. SCOTUS ruled that "it's a baby" is a matter of opinion beyond the ability of courts to resolve, so voters - not courts - should decide whether to keep baby killing legal. My analysis points out that SCOTUS doesn't treat the humanity of any ''other'' group of people as so subjective that states need the freedom to decide whether to legalize murdering them. 

Well, At least aborticide is not a "fundamental right" - though not because babies are people so killing them is murder. No, the best reason they could come up with for ruling that aborticide is not a fundamental right is that it hasn't been legal in past centuries. Pardon the french, but state legislatures need to pass laws that will fill that vacuum of intelligence.  If crimes against people should be kept legal according to whether they have been legal in past centuries, with no discussion of the very real people hurt by them, then ''slavery'' should still be legal.

[[Valentine Letter to Supreme Court Justices: outlaw baby killing in EVERY state]] This was my first letter to the Supreme Court, mailed on February 14, 2022, before the leaked Alito draft. It responds to alarming, foolish quotes from the most conservative justices in the December 1, 2021 oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson. 

[[Scriptures SCOTUS must address before saying Christianity supports abortion]] Roe v. Wade said part of the reason "the judiciary, at this point in the development of man's knowledge, is unable to speculate as to the answer...to 'when life begins'" was because preachers and doctors don't agree! Yet no preacher from the last 1,000 years was consulted! So obviously, SCOTUS' theology is due for an update. Here is some of what God says about it. God made babies, so God knows what He made. 

[[Four_Drawbacks_of_a_No-Right-to-Abortion_State_Constitutional_Amendment]] The Iowa Supreme Court overturned a prolife law and claimed that abortion is a "fundamental right" in Iowa, no matter what it is elsewhere. I don't think that is quite the meaning of the ruling, but Iowa prolifers now think they have to pass an amendment to the Iowa Constitution before they can think about any other prolife laws. Which means more years of waiting. Here are the legal reasons that is unnecessary.

[[Answers to Lawmakers' Objections]]

[[The consensus of court-recognized fact-finders that babies are people even before they are born]] This is the core legal consensus that no judge can squarely address and keep abortion legal. 

[[Abortion Law Alabama]] Here is my analysis of an Alabama prolife law with robust Findings of Facts, but that did not go far enough to survive courts.

What will keep fraud from spreading to the remaining 44 states, and from presidential elections on down the line - if they haven't already? What courageous new movement will rise to restore honest elections?

[[Shining "the Gospel" Outside the Bushel]]

[[Gospel Light turned off by Christians]]

==Reasoning with Pastors==

This section is for reports of dialog with pastors about those "Noninvolvement Theologies" that are keeping the "Armies of God" from shining the Light (of what God says about our national abominations) out into the government-entangled Darkness outside the church walls - out in those forums where voters decide whether to pattern our laws after the principles of Heaven or of Hell. Even where pastors give occasional sermons identifying some of those abominations, and more rarely direct token political action, there remain prohibitions against other churchgoers besides the pastor being allowed, on church premises and through church communication channels, to discuss, reason, investigate, strategize, and take action together, not limited to the pastor's political knowledge, to shine that Light out where it will get rid of some of that Darkness. See [[Reasoning with Pastors - Introduction]] for Dave Leach's explanation of why he is publishing these reports of dialog with several pastors which, as they occurred over the past 30 years, he did not expect to make public.

<blockquote>Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.  Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. - Matthew 5:13-16</blockquote>

<blockquote>Thou shalt not mix politics and religion. - 2 Denominations 3:16</blockquote>

<blockquote>Thou shalt not talk about anything controversial in church. That is, anything important enough that the discovery of disagreement in another is disturbing. - 1 Controversies 23</blockquote>
