From a Yahoo! Comment: To Sum Up the Matter re Toby and Krystal Keith...

I see that most of the comments here (that is, in the article to which the title links) are proving my point--that is, that she's nothing more than a nepotist who people care about only because of her dad. I honestly couldn't care less about her weight (That's her business, as far as I'm concerned.). As far as her personality, that's another matter. She couldn't be more or less than a jerk than her dad (From what I saw on TMZ, some people gave the heads up that he is abusive to others as well--see "Toby Keith Opens Can of Whoopass -- On Tape!" Having been through abuse myself, I believe that they would have no reason to lie about that--and this isn't the only place that I've read horror stories about him [e.g., I'll link you to one--L Kay's comment, by the way--Google around [if you don't believe me that is].).

Then came the way that I was abusively treated by Krystal Keith--I got treated like Hell for suggesting that she, as a public figure, use her own name, not have her dad as a producer, not be on his record label, etc. if she wanted to make her own name and career in her own right--and I was one of the first people to follow her on Twitter (Again, too easy. "@KrystalKeith". Follow her at your own risk, and follower beware!). She said that she didn't have time for people like me, joined one of her fans in accusing me of being a Dixie Chicks fan, and later proceeded to block me like I had done something wrong.

Don't even try to give constructive criticism about her as a public figure--she is just like her dad, and that is neither compliment nor something that I want others to learn the hard way.

[PS If you couldn't read L Kay's comment:

["When my little brother was playing baseball against TK's son's baseball team, a few boys went over to him after the game and asked for his autograph. He took one of them by the head and pushing him away. He told the kids to get away. I know he probably gets this all around norman, but he's not that bad. In fact, whenever the two teams would play, my father would go stand on the field with him and chat. Sure, his daughter was a little snotty from (personal experiences & stories), but he's just a normal, scruffy-looking guy who drives a H2 and who happens to live in a huge house on beautiful land."

[By the way, to L Kay, shoving a kid by the head is never acceptable; and anyone who would shove a kid by the head ought to have Social Services or the police called on him or her.]

Open Letter To Toby and Krystal Keith (Now That I've Had Time To Think)

First of all, I'm surprised that I ever gave people like you time. That's exactly what you want--time in and control over people's lives. "[A]lthough [you] knew God, [you] did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in [your] thoughts, and [your] foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, [you] became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things." (My emphasis is added here.).

You exalt yourselves above God--how dare you! And you have contention with me for what? Nothing but for that I suggested that Krystal not ride on her dad's coattails if she truly wanted a music career of her own. In both ways, I (so to speak) bit--I gave more celebrity than you even deserve, and I tried to help Krystal in particular get more celebrity--and shame on me for doing so. I played your game--I bit! And it backfired on me--the more help that I gave a fool, the more hurt that I got.

Celebrity is meant to glorify G-d, not to be used as a means to selfish ends. But go ahead and like your girls who drink beer, "[g]et [d]runk [a]nd [b]e [s]omebody", [cry] for [yourselves]--you will, in the direction that you're going, never see Wayman Tisdale again--you will not see him in Heaven. "Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you!  Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days."

Wayman was taken from you, you sick and vile family, because "[t]he righteous perishes, [a]nd no man [like you] takes it to heart; [m]erciful men are taken away, [w]hile no one considers [t]hat the righteous is taken away from evil." Wayman, from what you yourselves testified in the public forum, was a witness to you. Yet if Moses came to you, you would not hear him. After all, "‘If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.’" You will, therefore, not be persuaded on the Day of the Resurrection--when Wayman and others who are truly asleep in Christ shall rise again!

Take your "[b]eers [a]fter [w]ork" and dance with your daddy--that's all that you'll be getting! "Awake, you drunkards, and weep; [a]nd wail, all you drinkers of wine, [b]ecause of the new wine, [f]or it has been cut off from your mouth." Have you not heard? "[H]e said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was speechless."

Therefore, "Woe to him who says to wood, ‘Awake!’ To silent stone, ‘Arise! It shall teach!’ Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,Yet in it there is no breath at all.“But the Lord is in His holy temple. Let all the earth keep silence before Him.”" Have you not made idols of wood and stone--for instance, your precious guitars and concert venues--to exalt yourselves--again, have you not "changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man"?!

And you use the Name of God to do gross and vile perversities! "Therefore the Lord said: “Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths [a]nd honor Me with their lips, [b]ut have removed their hearts far from Me, [a]nd their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men, [t]herefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work [a]mong this people, [a] marvelous work and a wonder; [f]or the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, [a]nd the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.”"

One of your gross and vile perversities is this (and I must add that I am very disappointed that someone who I follow on Twitter would retweet this--I even almost unfollowed them because they would retweet your perversities.):

"@TobyKeithMusic: please RT - good cause. good karma!"

"[G]ood karma"?! "Wisdom calls aloud outside; [s]he raises her voice in the open squares. She cries out in the chief concourses, [a]t the openings of the gates in the city [s]he speaks her words: “How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? For scorners delight in their scorning, [a]nd fools hate knowledge.""

Get wisdom before it is too late! "Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly."

Otherwise, you will be going right to Hell with the gods of the Hindus--those who preach karma! Why do I write this to you sick and utter fools, by the way? Read and and figure out why--"‘Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’"--lest you remain as "they [who] come to you as people do, [who] sit before [a prophet] as [God's] people, and they hear [his or her] words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their hearts pursue their own gain."

By the way, you can figure out where the various Scripture verses came from--after all, you have the time and resources to do a BibleGateway search.

Another Petition Against Nehemia Gordon (To Which The Title Link Leads)

1. First of all, Nehemia Gordon violates the tenets of real Karaism. For example:


1. "Karaites consider traditional Christianity (any form of Christianity which holds that Jesus / Yehoshua has divine or semi-divine status) to be outright idol worship, in that it raises one of Elohim's creations to the level of creator, either in part or in full. Incidentally, this is precisely the view that Islam holds towards Christianity."
2. Since Karaism holds that "traditional Christianity...[is] outright idol worship", Karaites are to "not consent unto [the Christian, whether Jewish or gentile], nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him;  but thou shalt surely kill him; thy hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to draw thee away from the LORD thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wickedness as this is in the midst of thee. " 
2. Secondly, as previous petitioners wrote, "That rabbis have good things to say about A Prayer to Our Father is a moot point. That pastors have good things to say about the book is moot as well." Nehemia is profiting off of Tanakh and violations of Deuteronomy 13:9-12. "Ye shall not make with Me--gods of silver, or gods of gold, ye shall not make unto you." (Exodus 20:19)
3. Thirdly, Nehemia is verbally abusive. Real Karaites do not verbally abuse people.

Again, Nehemia is nothing more than an abusive hypocrite and opportunist. 

Petition Against Nehemia Gordon From A Group Of Non-Messianic Karaites That Even Messianics Should Sign

 I advise everyone to sign the PetitionOnline petition against Nehemia Gordon. According to what Nehemia claims is his interpretation of Scripture, he should "shalt surely kill [a Messianic Jew like me]; thy hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to draw thee away from the LORD thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. " (Deuteronomy 13:10-11, JPS)

So, Nehemia is not even being consistent towards what he claims is his own interpretation of Scripture--the Karaite one. He is instead deceitfully working in church settings, etc. to attempt to turn people away from Yeshua--thus, he's using (if you will) an Anti-Messianic equivalent of the Mohammedan taqiyya. This is not a Karaite principle in any way, shape, form, manner, circumstance, or fashion.

By the way, see "The Hebrew Yeshua vs. the Greek Jesus". Nehemia is grossly inconsistent, for example. He tells people not to use Jewish tradition that is not in the Tanakh, yet he said "Kaddish" (which is not in Scripture) when his dad died and answered "No, not according to Jewish tradition" when I asked if I could name a pet after a deceased relative.

Also, remember that Nehemia verbally abused me, and he has no problem hurting others. As the petition reads,  Nehemia "is doing more harm than good. We don't care about how your works are received by pastors, rabbis and Christians. We don't care about 'fantastic reviews.' We take no stock in them. Their comments are meaningless to us. Our eyes are on you and the effects your actions are having." Nehemia is nothing more than an abusive hypocrite and opportunist. 

An Epiphany That Occurred To Me Only After My Last Blog Entry...

With All Due Respect To Survivors Of Suicide (Even Myself, You Have To Remember)...

I had to laugh in my head when someone talked about losing her friend to the "dark tunnel of suicide"--she, like others, talks about how suicide is "difficult" for the survivors. Survivors of suicide like her (even if they don't say it) also think about how suicide is selfish, etc..

Well, firstly, the "dark tunnel of suicide" wasn't that dark for him--he committed suicide! Besides, secondly, like he probably thought, I'm thinking more and more that I agree with the sentiments (and I've--when I've Googled "Why shouldn't I commit suicide?", for example--seen and/or picked up the sentiments) that:

1. Suicide may not be that damned selfish after all.
2. The survivors may be being the ones who are selfish--who are they really crying for, after all? (By the way, Wayman Tisdale did not commit suicide, but you get the point.)
3. Since people are complaining about population control, it wouldn't (or at least shouldn't) kill you (pun intended) if we kill ourselves, anyway. After all, you sure don't feel--or at least act like you feel--that losing us would kill you while we're still alive--or at least most of the time, you don't. In fact, you usually act quite the opposite way while we're alive--that is, that you'd even want to see us gone and are just too tactically polite to say that. Even, for instance, while the one person talked about how her loved one "was close to me and all his friends and family" and was a "great friend", the loved one sure didn't feel like he was--or why else would he have committed suicide? Or maybe he felt like he was on his end but not on his loved ones' ends--after all, why didn't he stick around if he truly felt like he was loved by his loved ones.
4. Since you don't care for or even want us around while we're around and alive, that we'd be no longer around or alive would be better for all parties. Besides, you can really put your sentiments behind your "I miss you when you're not around" and "I'll always love you" words when we're really not around.
5. Suicidal people and suicide committers may, in some senses, be ahead of their time. For example, my great-granddad committed suicide on the day that Mario Savio spoke and helped usher in Jacob's Trouble--and he had seen enough of Jacob's Trouble on the horizon in his day. By the way, in case anyone's asking, I did tweet that I gained a whole new respect for Great Granddad for that in a perhaps-perverse since.
6. Since, again, you don't care for or even want us around while we're around and alive, that we'd be no longer around or alive would be better for all parties. After all, if and/or since we're really that much trouble to you while we're alive and around, we'd be putting an end to both our and your miseries if we decided to commit suicide. Also, again, that'd solve your population-control issue.
7. Since we may be well ahead of our time and you don't want us around, quit your (for a lack of a better term and with all due respect) bitching--we're perhaps even escaping to Heaven. Even if we're not, we were predestined for Hell (where you at least surely acted like you wanted us, anyway). Regardless, we'd be cutting our days short--perhaps to your satisfaction, as you made it seem half of the time.
8. The only reason that we don't commit suicide is because we're too damned in dread of what would happen if we did commit suicide or--worsely--if we actually survived a suicide attempt and had dreadful consequences associated with our failed suicide attempts and survivals thereof (or therefrom--whichever; you get the point). 

So, give suicide commiters and those of us who've been suicidal--for good reason--a break. You didn't seem to care for your suicide-victim loved one when he or she was still here--or else he or she would still be here, because he or she would know that he or she had a friend who's even a sibling or even close than one. You don't seem to care for us now--in fact, you're sending us the same messages that you sent your suicide-victim loved.

And that's why I laughed--not because I thought that his suicide was funny, but because I thought that (as he must've thought or would think) she's a damned hypocrite for saying what she should've said and meant while he was alive. Had she truly meant all that she said now that he's been gone for two years, he would've never gone through that suicide attempt--even Jeremiah stayed alive because he had Baruch and Hanamel, and Elijah had 6,999 others .

So, with all due respect to survivors of suicide (including those who've been suicidal like I have), give suicide victims and those who've been suicidal (including yourselves if you've been suicidal) a break! At least if you give us a break, we'll stay around to at least make you selfish brats and hypocrites happy--even if you really don't care for us, and at least to prove that we're not selfish like you--nor would we actually be selfish if we decide to take ourselves out of your lives! 

Let's See...

1. I observed my Blog Shabbat for this week yesterday.
2. I'm changing my Blogger habits--sort of. For certain people (at least those who I'm friendly and/or reconciled with), I won't say and do certain things. As for the people that I don't like, I'm just not giving you the time of day and I'm letting you fall into your own trap unless I absolutely have to expose you--e.g., Toby Keith, Tiki Barber and Traci Lynn Johnson Barber. As for Toby Keith--as I've blogged before--, the man had gallbladder surgery and now has time to think and reflect--so, I wish the man well and hopes that he uses his time out to get his priorities in order. As for Tiki and Traci Lynn Johnson Barber; they're now married and the ones who are going to have to deal with what they've done if and when their marriage goes the way that Tiki Barber's first marriage did. As for who they're friends with and who's friends with them, I can do nothing about that. Besides, I have people in my own life for whom some people would like at me like I'm Tiki or Traci Johnson Barber.
3. I'm given up on holding family, friends, etc. accountable in real life as well--not that I'm perfect, but you'll fall into whatever traps of your own that you've set up. As I did say in the open letter and the follow up (which few to none bothered to read), though (and both of which I ended up removing partly because so few people read the follow up); you can forget me sharing family pictures--after all, if I have to ask you to post an image while you're posting the same kinds of images (e.g., of yourself and of others who you've asked me not to post pictures of, all while you're posting pictures of yourself and even of them), you can perhaps even forget my taking of pictures of you. I'm not playing your hypocritical games anymore, and you'll miss of a heck of a lot of memories. By the way, this isn't everyone in the family--this is only those few with (so to speak) sticks up their butt about what I do and have a "G-d forbid that you do it, but I can do whatever I want" attitude. To the ones who aren't hypocritical and don't mind picture taking and sharing, you'll always be allowed to see my photos.  
4. For some reason, my Google Chrome broswer and Wireless Mouse are going AWOL, and my Internet Explorer can be a bit slow.

I could go on, but few to none of you will probably give a darn.

Proof Of Chauvinism In Our Society Re Kristen Stewart

According to Fox News, people are even threatening to murder Kristen Stewart (and all this after innocent people were murdered in Aurora, Colorado last week!). Who's blaming the married-with-children, in-a-higher-position (director-to-the-actor), older Rupert Sanders? Even Liberty Ross Sanders is blaming Kristen Stewart. Our society patriarchally, in a bad way, refuses to recognize that "To whom much is given, much is required."

Here (as my sister noted, by the way) is an older man taking advantage of a woman who's roughly half his age, and old enough to be her dad at that (He's 41; she's 22). Here is a married man pursuing a single woman, and cheating on his wife and kids in pursuing any (let alone a single-but-not-available--but still single) woman; and here is a director pursuing an actress.

Did true Christianity (even all those years ago, and throughout the ages when it has resurrected) and the feminist movement do nothing for society? Jesus, for example, forgave the adulterous woman and the Samaritan at the well, while He constantly lambasted the hypocritical Pharisees. Much later on, He brought forth even two Non-Messianic Jewish women to liberate women--Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan. 


So if Jesus brought forth even Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan to liberate women--even modern-day Samaritans at wells and adulterous women--, why can't we forgive Kristen Stewart? Furthermore, we do we judge her and not the higher-up Rupert Sanders all the more so? 

Can These Celebrities Stick To Entertainment For Once?

   

Durham, North Carolina arrived from google.com on "The Nicole Factor: My Reaction To the Obamacare Ruling" by searching for tobykeith on obamacare rulling.

Celebrities chose to be singers, actors, dancers, and whatever else they chose to be besides news anchors, reporters, correspondents, pundits, analysts, commentators, and other kinds of journalists and politiques. So, Toby Keith--for once--needs to shut his hypocritical, verbally-abusive, PrObama, ignorant mouth. 

So the "Free Wood Post" May Be Satire, But...

They still took a real happening, Rick Santorum's admission of being addicted to pornography-- which my very own mom says that she once heard Senator Santorum make on "The Janet Parshall Show"-- and satirized it. The "Free Wood Post" claims:

Free Wood Post is a news and political satire web publication, which may or may not use real names, often in semi-real or mostly fictitious ways. All news articles contained within FreeWoodPost.com are fiction, and presumably fake news.

Any resemblance to the truth is purely coincidental, except for all references to politicians and/or celebrities, in which case they are based on real people, but still based almost entirely in fiction.

FreeWoodPost.com is intended for a mature, sophisticated, and discerning audience.

In Santorum's Confessiongate (or Pornogate or whatever you want to call it), they clearly didn't need to make up what happened-- that just came right to them. "Any resemblance to the truth is purely coincidental, except for all references to politicians and/or celebrities, in which case they are based on real people, but still based almost entirely in fiction." And this wasn't a case of even a little "entirely in fiction". This was a " purely coincidental, except for all references to politicians and/or celebrities" case.

On This, I Agree With Michael Reagan In A Way...

Rick Santorum strikes again! What a hypocrite! That's right, Senator Santorum; you don't want to at least give contraception to people who want to practice safe sex, even within marriage; but you held back that you were addicted to porn, and many porn stars need contraception so that more porn stars aren't born into this crazy-enough world! Oh man! 


Michael Reagan is right: "Somethings need to be left unsaid!!There was no need for this statement!" For, "[e]ven a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace; When he shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive." (Proverbs 17:28) There's also a second alternative: admit your sins from the beginning before you start crusading against others' doings of what you did; but Senator Santorum obviously was too late on that count.


I'm not into porn myself, but "He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still;" (Revelation 22:11a-b); and ""Judge not, that you be not judged. ² For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you." (Matthew 7:1-2). We live in a country where "Congress shall respect no establishment of religion or prohibit the free exercise thereof." Not everyone is a Christian or a Vatican One Catholic (although, to be fair, that Vatican was notorious for sexual sin and hypocrisy).


No wonder "An awkward silence fell over the crowd as Santorum went on to say, “The devil pulled me into lust. I would stare at screens, magazines, my hand…but now I’m free. I’m free of the devil’s grip.”" People don't like to be hoodwinked and unnecessarily shocked and surprised.


The problem is less the sin, and more the self-righteous hypocrisy. 

You Can Clearly See That I Try Not To Lie Or Pretend...

My last repost makes pretty clear that I don't pretend to be who I'm not. If I'm a hypocrite, I'll (at some point, anyway) come right out and say that I'm a hypocrite. There are certain things (e.g., thoughts and struggles) that I'd not reveal on this blog (at least for the time being), but (except for the white lies such as "I'm fine" when I'm really depressed out of my mind), I'm (usually pretty) honest about who I am.
