Several Reasons Why I'm An Introvert-- Not Anti Social, By the Way

1. The fighting-- for example, my mom and my extrovert sister were fighting as my sister was finalizing plans for tonight (She's going to a friend's birthday party.). There's too much fighting with self and others-- the conflict with others such as Mom and Michelle fighting, the conflict with self such as trying to figure out what to wear, how to style hair, etc.
2. My disability-- Brian Ferrick knows what I'm talking about, and he's an example of (for a lack of a term, and excuse my incivilty) a so-to-speak "weasel". He damned well knows that he didn't invite me to that one event because he didn't want to make accomdations for me-- and he's a weasel especially for trying to make excuses for it and not apologizing. Besides, especially because of the Brian Ferricks in and of this world, to do what everyone else is doing-- i.e., dancing-- is both physically and socially hard; and in terms of the social aspect, you're a saint or a liar if you say otherwise: how many of you would honestly dance with the girl with Cerebral Palsy, or chat with the girl with Spina Bifida?
3. The fallout from all that I've had to deal with besides my disability.
4. The fact that I'm a Jewish Christian, conservative-but-Non-Far-Right Republican. Most of my peers are either Far Right or Far Left, Drudge or ABC/CNN/CBS/(MS)NBC/BBC, Rush Limbaugh or "The Daily Show" and "The Colbert Report", and otherwise-polarized people. I don't look forward to being perceived as the "fundamentalist" and "right wing" (in a derogatory way) or "libtard" and "Christian and Republican In Name Only" guest at the party.
5. My family gatherings are enough, and my family exemplifies the aforementioned and following reasons well.
6. Much of the food-- I'm a kosher foodie. If you offer pork and sauerkraut, I may take it; but I would prefer that you offer all kosher and organic food without artificial sweeteners, hydrogenated oils, etc..
7. The noise and music-- I'm not interested in Slipknot, the more-recent stuff from Toby Keith, etc.
8. The uselessness of being social when all I enjoy at parties is the food, picture and video recording, and a few other things, anyway; and that sense of loneliness.

A Jewish Evangelical Catholic Shares the Struggle of an Evangelical Catholic Thailander Against Roman Catholicism

Aron Ben Gil'ad gives us insight into an Evangelical Catholic Thailander's struggle against Roman Catholicism. Keep in mind that I have made the distinction between Evangelical and Non-Evangelical (Regular, Actual Orthodox) Roman Catholicism several times. Evangelical Catholics-- even if they share differences with us Non Catholics (e.g., Protestants and Anabaptists), Jewish and gentile, re Miryam Ha'Almah v'Ima shel Yeshua, Kefa, etc.-- believe the following:

1. The inerrancy of Tanakh
2. That Tanakh ze d'var l'dvar shel Adonai, lo shel ha'ishim u ishot (i.e., Tanakh is ad verbatim from G-d, not any words of any man or human)
3. That enumah, lo avodot, ze haderekh el yeshuat (i.e., faith, not works, is the way to salvation)

And I could go on, but you get the point.

Anyway, here's part of what the Thailander Evangelical Catholic struggled against:

"He was liked and respected by his priests until he had a conversion to orthodox Catholicism. Most of his priests turned on him except for a handful. Any one who knows the church in Thailand knows that its priests are very arrogant and full of their own importance. They all want to be in charge of big Catholic Schools that have over 90 percent Buddhist teachers and students not because they have a missionary spirit but because they want to make money. Many of the priests have girlfriends or boyfriends and are not very spiritual at all. They have no sense of mission (even to the refugees in camps on the borders of Thailand)."

The Thailander bishop actually converted to Evangelical, and away from Orthodox, Catholicism (Given that I went to the Orthodox Roman Catholic College of Notre Dame of Maryland, and come from Anusi v'Katoli families, I should know.). The Thailander bishop dealt with a similar problem to that at Notre Dame and in the rest of the Roman Catholic Church-- they do not believe in the inerrancy of the Word of G-d, target Evangelical (Christian) Catholics and Non Catholics as "fundamentalists" (in the derogatory sense; and at Notre Dame, "fundamentalists" were often very persecuted), and specifically fill their institution with Non-Evangelical Roman Catholic and even other Non-Messianic (Non-Christian) people.

By the way, for example; I can name you a Non-Messianic professor who teaches at Notre Dame and openly admitted that he is not a Christian: Dr. Alan Walden, and Dr. Walden was one of the very few people at Notre Dame by whom I not even at all persecuted (though we had our disagreements and tiffs, none of which were persecutory) and for whom I had kavod. As much as we have the First Amendment and the Vatican is their own schtick; Dr. Walden, Buddhists, and other Non Messianics would not be hired at Roman Catholic schools were Roman Catholicism actually Christianity.

And the Evangelical Catholic Thailander bishop faced Roman Catholic opposition to Tanakh for all of his days. I just hope that Aron ben Gil'ad understands that he and the Thailander bishop have been among the very few Evangelical (Christian) Catholics throughout history.

Can There Be A Nonpartisan Feminist Movement? Likely Not

On one hand, you have the creeps at the College of Notre Dame of Maryland (e.g., Dr. Jeanne Del Rosso, a total creep and Dr. Susan Barber-- both Anti-Protestant, anti-moderate, anti-conservative, Anti-Republican creeps), NARAL, Feministing, and the Women's Media Center. On the other hand, you have the Ann Coulters, Michelle Malkins, and Sarah Palins; who Dr. Del Rosso and Dr. Barber love to lump people like me in with (and I may be being a grump here again, but they were maybe even Feminazis. Ann Coulter's also a Feminazi, and a plan Nazi-- or rather, a female Ron Paul-- nonetheless, creepy).

This Is Why I'm Not A Mathematician...

How can I have 406 Facebook friends, 235 Twitter followers, 192 YouTube subscribers and a ton of YouTube Friends, yet only 44 people who like my Facebook page? And I can't "Like" my own page until 70 other people "Like" it. So, here I have a potential of at least (since some Facebook friends are also Twitter followers, and a few already like my page) about... let's say... (406 + 235 + 192 + 388 - 3 =) 1218 likes, and 44/1218 is about 3.6% of my "Like"s potential.

So, where I am going wrong on ganering only 3.6% of "Like"s out of "Like"s potential?

"HaTikvah"... And Gadaffi's Death Remind Me of Great-Grandma Gaydos' Own...

Gaddafi was an Anti Semite, Great-Grandma Gaydos a traitor. And I still want to apologize to the Rusznyaks who themselves and whose aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. did not get to live to sing "HaTikvah" and rejoice that another Anti Semite is gone. I especially apologize for Great-Grandma herself and her cover-upers and defenders. Our side of the family has just as much blood as Gaddafi did on his hands and as much as the Lybian rebels have on their hands until we admit and apologize for what Great-Grandma did.

East Med Sea Peace Said It Best

Or at least said it better than I did. I should've mentioned that the Putim treated Gaddafi no better than the Pleshetim treated Sha'ul Hamelekh shel Yisra'el.

Can You Imagine How Graphic the bin Laden Death Pictures Were?

The Gaddafi ones were graphic enough to affect me to think, "Couldn't they just have chucked Gaddafi's body into the sea?" They chucked bin Laden's in. Instead of being animalistic or worse than animals quite frankly, they should've had the dignity to at least remember that even Gaddafi was human-- and I guess that's what makes the US and some other countries different, too; by the way: we still even treat the most wicked and vile people with respect when they die. Remember that, also, human nature is so that none of us is better than Gaddafi or bin Laden save grace-- only grace keeps us from becoming Gaddafis or bin Laden.
