Self imposed judgement through taxation

Taxation is slander libel fraud theft kidnapping slavery murder and greed which is idolatry, it is the love of money and the root of some of all sorts of evil.  Taxation is backbiting and gossip and judging a verdict with crooked scales, taxation is terrorism and the fear of man which is a stumbling block and a snare, taxation is heaping up bad karma for the day of retribution.  Look the blood of the wage slaves you employed is crying up against you and the property you have stolen is corrupted and corroded for the day of wraith.  He who lives by threat of the sword collecting false debts shall die by his violent way of life as he destroys the whole earth before him and has no where left to live he has not destroyed through corruption. 

Without roads

Without roads who will destroy the native plant life and people's houses that were there before the roads were built.

Without roads how will we create work incentive to go to work to pay taxes to build roads?

Without roads who will create jobs for police to give traffic tickets and paramedics and car repairmen to help people in car accidents?  And most importantly jobs for morticians!

Without roads how will we subsidize environmentalist jobs by destroying the environment to create roads?

What about emergencies?  Helicopter landing pads and fleets of helicopters and drones would destroy less land then roads to build the infrastructure and cost the community a hospital and post office serves less resources than building and maintaining a massive amount of roads surface area.  But at what cost?  A loss in man hours of work.

How do you enjoy your miserable job?

Wage slavery island.

Imagine an island with 100 married couples without children totalling 100 men and 100 women.

They agree to make a map of the island in which they draw 200 imaginary sections, one section for each person and two sections for each married couple.

They then create objects out of trees and call these objects tokens.

They then have children and send them to school where they teach them how to learn the knowledge they need to have jobs in the real world in order to get tokens.

Once the children reach a certain age they say now that you are done with school, you need to work hard and earn a living I can no longer let you stay here for free.

All the original 100 married couples end up renting land to the other couples children in exchange for these tokens.  When the children ask how come you do not have to work to pay rent they say I already worked hard to own the land but it you purchase my land for a hundred thousand tokens you will not have to pay rent if you save up and work hard like I did.  But all the tokens left on the island are up to less than a hundred thousand tokens yet there were too many for the children to count to know that.

So the parents relax while the children do all the work but are made to feel guilty for a lack of work ethic.

But the parents never had to earn the tokens they just created them and they never worked to earn the land they just claimed it belonged to them before the children were born.

A stock market crash is often good for buyers

Copyright Carl Janssen 2018 February 6

If the price of a share of stock decreases but the price per earning for a share of stock increases that means the stock has a cheaper price and a buyer will make more money per time while the stock is the new price per earning than when It was the old price per earning it the number of shares in the corporation did not change.

It the price per share gets divided by X but the price per earning for each share gets multiplied by X that means that those who neither by not sell stocks will make the same amount of money per time off the shares they already own as long as the new price per earning for each share remains X times the old price per earning for each share and the new price per share remains equal to the old price per share divided by X if the number of shares in the corporation does not change

Earnings = Price * Price per Earnings

New Earnings = (Old Price/X)*(Old Price per earning*X) = Old Earnings

The reason this is worded so complicated  is because I am talking about the earnings in a instantaneously moment in time since these quantities fluctuate

By price per earning for each share I do not mean the P/E ratio divided by the number of shares but simply the P/E ratio of it is calculated as follows

The price-to-earnings ratio, or P/E is the ratio of the market price of a company’s stock to its earnings per share (EPS):

P/E Ratio =	Market Value per Share
	Earnings per Share (EPS)

Additionally if the price price per share decreases them someone purchases a share and then the price per share increases again later and that person sells a share they would make money not considering the fee common people generally pay a third party for being allowed to make each transaction this is if the number of shares in the corporation does not change during this time period.

However people who intend to sell maybe unhappy with this situation

By earnings I mean money made per time at that instantaneous moment for someone owning stock in that company of any number of shares which would be directly proportional to the number of shares they own.

This might not be the exact same definition as what other people mean by the definition of earnings or the other words I have used in this article

This is not investment advice

This is not considering taxes

Some of my new post locations

I failed to sign the new agreements with ad sense in time and also let my blog be temporarily hidden for to 
long and and can not seem to fix a technical problem so I am transferring my articles to another site.  I also wrote more than 200 articles elsewhere some many years ago which I will hopefully transfer here.  If anyone knows how to switch ad sense accounts and or reactivate an old as sense account let me know.  For this blog site a specific pair of identification numbers is listed and I can not select switch ad sense accounts and I can not log into my old as sense account using my gmail email they say it does not exist.

I am going to correct old posts and after correcting typos I will try to show the original version as posted on my old account with the date it lists as posted and the edited version above with the most recent dates.

religious labels verses religious practice another section of undermining authority book introduction

Copyright 2017 December 13

This is going to be another section of a book I am writing probably in the introduction

It is not important to me what religion someone labels themselves as but what religion they think and practice.  I am not writing this book to convert someone to a new religious label.

 I am going to make a case that if there is what some people commonly call a heaven and a hell ones admittance to heaven and hell might not determined by what religion one labels themselves as but what religion one thinks and practices not however as salvation based on what set of good deeds someone did or even what knowledge they have but their underlying attitude toward sentient individuals.

I will also make a case that interfaith marriage is not necessarily morally wrong if by interfaith one means two different individuals marrying who label the name of the religion they practice with different labels.

Additionally I will make the case that changing what religion other individuals labels themselves as should not be the primary goal of sharing one's faith.  The primary goal should be providing information that may provide opportunity for someone's underlying attitude or attitudes toward other sentient individuals to improve more easily if they should so choose.  This improvement in attitude may result in learning how to practically make decisions that are more loving based on an objective standard of love that is relativistic based on each individuals perspective including the perspective of God if such a being exists or each god if many gods exist.

I will make the case that a god may exist who communicated with individuals called prophets and that the words that this God communicated to prophets maybe found in a transmitted copied and recopied form in a book frequently called the Bible as well as possibly other books.  However I will not use the Bible alone to make this case, nor will I claim the copying process that led up to today's bible is perfect nor will i claim a canonical set of books, but I will make claim of a process taught that each individual can use to make a reasonable evaluation of alleged prophecy from God that maybe used to evaluate some writings claimed to contain prophetic words.

In light of this sense I will try to make a case based on the Bible to justify many of the points I make throughout this book but it will not be an absolute definitive proof by which a individual of finite knowledge can know the truthfulness or falsity of my claims with 100% certainty.

This book will look at things primarily through a Christian worldview, an agnostic worldview and a national anarchist worldview although not as the one and only worldview labeled as each of these religions.  For two different claims can labeled as dogmatic tenets of the Christian faith by two different individuals labeling themselves as Christian maybe contradictory.  And one tenet of one person's Christianity may actually agree with a tenet of another person's Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Statism, Anarchism or yes even Atheism.

New book I am writing entitled offensive theology undermining authority and teaching love

I am going to write a book showing how religion can be used as a polemic against the allegation that any authority of social institutions both religious and secular exists to make an otherwise good action bad or an otherwise bad action good.

This polemic is not airtight for even in the existence of a hypothetical or real deity who prescribes a objective moral value system to any sentient life in the cosmos, other sentient life may have another objective moral value system, none the less those who hold certain value systems such as a goal to destroy or enslave all other sentient life in the cosmos I will not even attempt to reason with as well as those with some other value systems quite repugnant to my own.

This book when summed up to its most important point may simply be a suggestion that religious teachings may have been inspired by a real divine being to ethically influence people not to murder or at the very least that if such a hypothetical divine being does not exist in reality that interpretation of religious texts or religious teachings may be used none the less as an ethical influence against murder instead of an unethical influence in support of murdrr although there shall be much more to my book than that.

The idea that human beings should need a divine being to tell them not to murder may seem ludicrous on face value and it is but nonetheless even if a divine being has spoken in reality or has been imagined in the mind of men to persuade mankind against murder this has not been sufficient nor has mass murder ended in so called atheist states apart from the allegedly corrupting influence of so called fairy tales of the divine.  Yet there has never been an atheist state for to believe in the state is to worship an idol of mankind's imagined creation.  An imagined creation that is none the less deadly and just as real as the bullets that are used to shoot transgressors of manufactured laws, the ultimate act of worship to an imaginary god, real human sacrifice to the imagined state itself.  In light of this every day reality the far fetched idea that mankind should contemplate a religion in order to oppose murder even though they should simply reject the idea that murder is good at face value without need for a real or imagined God to give them command not to murder may start to seem more reasonable after all.

Can God make a rock so heavy he cannot lift it?

Copyright

September 20, 2010

Carl Janssen

What would be a proper answer to the question, “If God is infinitely-strong can God make a rock so heavy he cannot lift it?”

There are many ways to answer this question.  Some people might say this question is invalid because God does not have a body.  I will simply reply to this question with an allegory.

Imagine you are at a weightlifting contest between two men.  One contestant is a weak man, and the other a strong man.  The weak man cannot lift more than 20 pounds, doing a specific type of lift.  The strong man cannot lift more than 200 pounds doing the same specific type of lift.  The weak man tells the strong man, “You cannot be unable to lift the 30 pound weight doing this type of lift, where as I can be unable to lift the 30 pound weight doing this type of lift therefore I am stronger than you because there is something I can do that you cannot.”  The strong man replies, “I can choose not to lift the 30 pound weight, so this does not actually make you stronger than me.”

Which man measured strength correctly?

Christian internet outreach has certain advantages over six traditional forms of outreach.

Copyright

September 18, 2010

Carl Janssen

 

There are many different methods that Christians have traditionally used to outreach to their community including but not limited to the following.

1.    Charitable work and community service

2.    Friendship Evangelism and Discipleship

3.    Talking to strangers, such as street witnessing and door to door

4.    Books, Pamphlets, Letters and Epistles

5.    Preaching a Sunday Sermon to people in a Church building

6.    Televangelism and Radio evangelism

I will discuss very briefly advantages that internet outreach has over these six methods.  There are also advantages that at least five of these methods have over internet outreach which I will not discuss.

1. Hands on community outreach such as helping those in need with food or medical help

Is limited in that what is morally good must be determined before hands on work is done (for else the hands on work might not be morally good) the desire to do good must be developed within the heart (for many people are capable of good but few chose to do the good they are capable of) and eternal matters must be considered as surpassing temporary matter [for what good is it to eat bread in this life and go without even a drop of water on your tongue in the next life (Luke 16:24)] teaching helps overcome these three limitations.

2. Friendship Evangelism and Discipleship

Are very limited because of reaching a small number of people who may be hard-hearted (if they reject the truth today they may reject it again for the next 80 years of “friendship” or “discipleship”.)  Discipleship methods are also limited because you may find yourself repeating the same things to every person.  Internet outreach may enable you to reach a large group of people with the hope of finding someone who might not be hard-hearted.  Internet outreach is also helpful because once you have something published you do not need to repeat the same teaching again unless there is a good reason such as added detail or clarifications, etc.

3. Talking to strangers such as going door to door or street witnessing.

Are limited because people may be offended more with these methods than other methods, because you potentially have to repeat teaching the same things, and because you have to search out and find people to talk to.  Internet outreach provides an advantage in that if people are offended they can just avoid your website, you do not have to repeat the same things every day after you wrote them one time online and even if you sleep all day people can still look at your website.

4.  Books, Pamphlets, Epistles, Letters

These are very useful because you can write a teaching one time and it can be continued after you die.  They are limited because they need to be distributed, and duplicated which is costly either for the creator and or the consumers.  They are also limited because people may not even know about your books existence.  The internet is a cheaper method to instantly reach a large number of people with literature and does not have to consume paper.

5.  Modern mainstream preaching

In which the audience is required to keep silent and not ask questions until the sermon is over is not an early church practice in my opinion.  I as well as other people suspect that when preaching was originally done, the male members of the audience were allowed to ask questions (1 Corinthian 14:34) and multiple people would take turns speaking in an orderly manner (1 Corinthians 14:30-31.)  I suspect it was more of a group interaction in which the males participated together to learn.  I suspect that traditionally after learning in a group meeting the married men went home to teach their wives and children (1 Corinthians 14:34, Ephesians 5:26, Deuteronomy 6:7.)  I believe that women were traditionally allowed to attend such services but were expected to be silent or quiet more than the men (1 Corinthians 14:34, 1 Timothy 2:11, 1 Peter 3:1, 1 Peter 3:4.)  Since the group interaction of questions and answers has been separated from mainstream preaching I suggest that the person who insists that the audience keeps silent, changes his ways.  In my opinion he should start recording or typing those non-interactive sermons by himself (with no audience present) and place them on the internet for everyone to see, instead of dragging in an audience who he expects to keep silent.  In my opinion he should also start having interactive sermons in which the audience members can ask questions and take turns sharing what they have learned, in an attempt to duplicate something similar to the practices in 1 Corinthians 14.

6. Televangelism and Radio-evangelism

These had an important place and time to outreach to a large number of people.  But when the internet is available today there large cost raises ethical quandaries when the same messages could be distributed over the internet at a cheaper price, which in some cases may be the difference between hundreds of dollars in a year and over a hundred thousand dollars in a year.

Moral values oppose most Democrats

Copyright

August 28, 2010

Carl Janssen

Many people think that I am a republican, or “conservative” that simply is not true.  I usually try to examine the candidates on the basis of moral principles that I believe, some of my moral beliefs are based on scripture directly and some may have other sources.

I am in many situations against racism, degradation of women, murder of those who should not be killed and stealing. 

I feel that the democratic candidates are usually racists. Programs like affirmative action are racist for obvious reasons.  Affirmative action forces people to hire on the basis of skin color and is inherently a racist policy. 

Many democrats are feminists.  I feel that feminist movement as a whole is harmful and degrading towards women.  Many feminists support the sexual exploitation of women.  For example there are strip clubs in Feminist countries but probably not all over the place in Muslim countries.  Since I am pro woman, I am anti-feminist and therefore usually against democrat candidates.  

Abortions are murders of babies (who unlike abortionists) have committed no crimes that should be punished by earthly execution.  Many democrats are in support of legalizing baby murder so I think many of them are morally bad.  If a president’s job is to protect citizens, but he wishes to legalize the murder of citizens, he is not capable of doing the most essential duty of the presidency.  Can Christians who know abortion is murder vote for pro abortion candidates?  “Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.”  1 John 3:15

Finally Democrats pretend to be generous to the poor, but they generally are not.  It is generous to give your own money to help someone else. 

It is stealing to use violent force to get someone else to give their money to help a non-starving “poor” person get more money.  If they really cared for the poor they would not give to the poor by taxing others, instead they would give out of their own pocket book, and suggest that others volunteer to help the poor in the proper way with their time and resources willingly not under threat of violence.  It is sometimes better to teach a man to fish, than to give him fish directly.

Voting often requires at least half of people, or the largest group of people to agree on something.  Yet many will be eternally punished and few will receive a good afterlife.  It would be shocking if voting produced good moral results when less than half of all people throughout history have been or will be “saved.”  (Few+Many=100% Mathew 7:13-14)
