Interesting read here: http://fiddlrts.blogspot.com/2016/03/po ... e-got.html
Yeah. it's just a blog, but I think its brings up a lot of valid points - and as written by someone who grew up in (what he calls) the 'Religious Right', it just can't be dismissed out-of-hand by those here who accuse everyone of liberalism.

I didn't feel inspired to read the blog as I have never participated in any activities of the "Religious Right" and have been quite in the dark concerning their activities.

However, on their behalf, everyone is free to express their own opinion, either in a negative light or a positive one. I prefer to read only the positive concerning Christian testimonies. As far as Christianity is concerned, that is a personal relationship with Christ and as personal relationships go, they all vary with the individual, as we are all created with the freedom to choose spiritual life or death. To those who are being saved we are the fragrance of life, to those who are perishing we are the stench of death. In this we do not need to do anything to be liked or disliked. Those who hate God hate us and they search for ways to shed a bad light on his chosen ones, and Satan is always willing to provide his ambassadors ammunition. As good children, that is their goal.

If this blog is a hit piece on Christianity or the "Religious Right" .then it is what it is, and that being the attempt of Satan to shed a bad light on Christianity in any way that he can. All negativity concerning Christ.has been the tool of Satan even before creation. it is as simple as that. Naturally, if that is the case, perhaps you would feel the need of bringing up the negativity in an attempt to please your father. Either way I personally haven't had any connections to the "Religious Right" therefore it is of no interest to me. However, I am quite interested in truth that exposes the lies and deceitful acts of this regime.

I am far more interested in the destruction of this country by tyrannical liberals of both parties. When I am on line I spend time looking for the things being covered up by the propaganda branch of this regime. There are a good many treasonous activities going on behind our backs. Yet the media wants us to spend all our time waiting for the latest reports on how transperversion is making headway into our perverse society. God bless us as we are so considerate of the sinful lifestyles of the mentally ill. Naturally these are the things which consume those who hate God, for it is given to them to believe in such lies. I like to know who my enemies are. I see the evil ones children purposely destroying our monetary system, I see our rights being subverted, the fundamental rights given to us in our constitution, not their constitution, are being destroyed through their deceitfulness.. I see Americas morality being destroyed through the brainwashing of our citizens by demagogy and through satanic principles. I want to see truth in this world of lies and I wish to reveal it whenever I can.

I would much rather read about the Pravda trash pieces such as "trumps war on women" being exposed as a lying propaganda hit piece, and it is just that. I find the perversion of our society being sanctified by the reprobates in Washington far more interesting. Why? Because the moral decay of this society is a barometer representing the degree of destruction that is to come upon us. In these things I see how much time America has left before lawless America will be brought to nothing by the living God of Israel.

Soon after that men will no longer rule other men according to their own whims and desires, rather the son of the living God shall rule all men and we shall live in peace.

Perhaps you should look for the positive testimonials of those being saved through Christ. Blogs such as those may well save you from the path of destruction you are traveling. :)

Slacker - if you don't read the blog, you have no reason to criticize it.

Slacker-
Can you answer my Echoplex question in my thread?

Do you have a "junk" or temporary email address you can post?

"it just can't be dismissed out-of-hand by those here who accuse everyone of liberalism"

I didn't have to read it as your false accusation above was enough. I was unaware that someone here accuses everyone of liberalism. Personally, I choose to only refer to liberals as liberals, and that through their deeds and motives. "You shall know a tree by it's fruit". Therefore is it not proper to call an apple tree an apple tree? I do not subscribe to political correctness as that is pure evil in its intent.

God created two classes of men, those who recognize him as God, and those who deny his existence. We all serve someone whether it is God or Satan. God, with foreknowledge of what every man would do created some men for good and some men for evil. Some repent and turn to God, other remain defiled, but God knows them beforehand. There is no middle ground.

So what would be the motive for someone who does not believe in God post articles about the things of God in the first place if it were not to shed a negative light on those who serve him? It certainly would not be to glorify the God that they do not believe exists. For your consideration, no Christians are perfect. They are simply forgiven and guided back onto the proper path by the living God when they falter.

should be a lesson to you all.. when you are right with God, he bestows grace upon your soul.. talent is God given, and God bestows this talent to his followers that lead a life that have surrendered to the Divine Will of God ..

Thank you Dane.
I have cleaned up a few of those songs and added bass to some but for some reason I can't upload them to SoundClick anymore. I'll probably have to go to another e-mail address and try to upload them from there. Juno line modem support sucks and blocks a good many files. For as little as I use the Internet it isn't worth paying a bunch of money just for e-mail and a few music sites. I'll just have to do without the trimmings..For quite some time I haven't been able to listen to any music on the internet, but now I can't even upload stuff anymore it appears. Too bad, so sad...... :)

Jookeyman . I went to your site but there was no email address there that I could see. But my browser blocks out quite a few things that are in a newer format. I tried several of your pages but without any luck. Even this Bandmix format won't allow me to edit my profile or link songs to it I guess that if this computer was good enough for Fred Fintstone it should be good enough for me.

Remember when simple slow computers cost about 2 grand? Then someone thought that they should stop all support for them and force you to buy a newer one. Now they do that to you every couple of years or so. Sorry MicroSuck. I don't want to play your game anymore I only use my newer computers (XP Pro & Win 7 actually worked!) for recording. And I also have all the high dollar recording software that you won't let me use on newer systems, so I won't be paying for that anymore either.
Sorry for the rant. These computer greed consortium's just p1ss me off. They sell you something to get your hard earned money than they discontinue support and obsolete it in order to get you again, time after time. Happiness is keeping your older systems and software that work flawlessly. :)

sorry for hijacking your thread, but I finally had to upgrade to a new old stock computer I had bought nearly 5 years ago, according to the invoice inside the box when I unbundled it last month..I literally had a AVG security tech refuse to remotely view my Windows XP computer, said dial up was too slow to look at it (yeah right) and that they no longer supported XP, the AVG Internet Security tray icon disappeared one day, I figured it was prolly Microsoft instead of AVG that was causing the problem.. they removed a DLL file necessary for AVG to work.. anyhow, I went the Straight Talk Wi-Fi Hotspot box and around 100 bucks got me "on the air" started with a 1 gb data card, a 30 dollar Belkin Wireless Adapter that plugged into the USB port and a 50 dollar wi-fi hotspot box.. so much easier but you got a watch the websites with the flash videos playing constantly or it will eat up your dat a really fast, I sorta knew the 1 gb card would not last long cause of all the updates that would be needed all around .. I now have Gear Box downloaded off the Line6 website and have the link to download the Ableton Live Lite recording software (Windows 7 version/drivers) but it will eat up around 20% of my $50.00 5 gb data card since the file is 956,000,000 mb..nearly 1 gb.. LOL.. good thing I have a shoulder injury that is keeping me from wanting to play guitar and record, but, it is getting better.. Lynyrd says helloo..
