Modesty -- Sensuality

MODESTY – SENSUALITY

4-4-2019

The wife and I, along with her brother, recently attended a Mennonite Barbecue fundraising event.  According to Wikipedia:  The Mennonites are members of certain Christian groups belonging to the church communities of Anabaptist denominations named after Menno Simons.  Their manners and dress codes are similar to the Amish although they are not associated with them.

The men wear plain clothes, grow a beard without a mustache, and usually wear suspenders.  However, the women are extremely plain in appearance.  They wear neck to floor dresses with long sleeves, wear their hair up donned with a cap or hat, do not wear jewelry or makeup, and never color with hair.  No part or their body (particularly bosom) is accentuated.  They have no hint of sensual or sexual attraction (actually no attraction at all).  Their dress and actions within the private confines of their home is unknown.

Why am I relating this story?  While we were eating, the brother-in-law mentioned that Mennonite women were adhering to the scriptural rule to cover their heads.  He was referring to the information contained in 1 Corinthians 11, specifically 11:5 and 11:13.

1 Corinthians 11:5 NET But any woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered disgraces her head, for it is one and the same thing as having a shaved head.

1 Corinthians 11:13 NET (13) Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

After some investigation, it must be noted that Paul’s comment is not a “rule” nor is it mentioned within the laws of God.  The question is:  why did Paul make this comment and what if the purpose of the comment?

Because of the Angels

To further complicate the issue Paul also claims it is “because of the angels” although he gives no further information about “what angels” and what are the circumstances concerning the angels.

1 Corinthians 11:10 NET (10) For this reason a woman should have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

The type and circumstances of the angels has various answers among commentators.

The IVP Commentary states:  Women’s hair was a common object of lust in antiquity, and in much of the eastern Mediterranean women were expected to cover their hair. To fail to cover their hair was thought to provoke male lust as a bathing suit is thought to provoke it in some cultures today. Head covering prevailed in Jewish Palestine (where it extended even to a face veil) and elsewhere, but upper-class women eager to show off their fashionable hairstyles did not practice it. Thus Paul must address a clash of culture in the church between upper-class fashion and lower-class concern that sexual propriety is being violated.

The Guzik Commentary states:  Angels are present at any assembly of Christians for worship and note any departure from reverent order; and apparently, angels are offended by any violation of propriety.

The Gospel Advocate Commentary states:  because of the angels.—Much diversity exists as to who the angels are. Many think they were the messengers of the churches. But the apostle nowhere presents a thought as to how woman shall appear before men; the question is, How shall she appear before God? How shall she approach God in prophecy or prayer? The direction applies to her, whether in public or private. It is necessary for a woman to approach God with the tokens of her subjection to man in secret prayer, or private teaching as in public, just as it is necessary for man to approach God as a servant of Christ in private or in public.

The NET Notes states:  Paul does not explain this reference to the angels, and its point is not entirely clear. It seems to reflect an awareness that angels are witnesses to church life (cf. Eph_3:10) and would be particularly sensitive to resistance against God’s created order.

The above Commentary quotes represent the generally accepted explanation of Paul’s head covering edict.  A man should not have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God.  However, the woman is the glory of the man.  A man did not come from woman, but the woman from a man.  Neither was man created for the sake of woman, but a woman for the man.  But they do not accurately explain why Paul said, “because of the angels” or why would or should angels be offended or lust after the uncovered hair of a woman (or was Paul referring to men?).

Another perspective is given below:

https://hoshanarabbah.org/blog/2017/07/08/1-corinthians-head-coverings/

1 Corinthians 11:1-6 On head coverings for men and women. In Hebraic biblical culture, it was common for a married (or betrothed) woman to wear a veil or head covering to indicate that she was taken sexually or belonged to a man, even as a wedding ring now publicly telegraphs this idea.

At the same time, the Bible nowhere forbids men from wearing hats. It was common in biblical times for men and women to wear head coverings to protect themselves from the weather, since many of their activities occurred outdoors. Whether a man wears a head covering now while ministering is a matter of personal choice, for the Bible neither commands nor prohibits it. So why does Paul instruct women to wear a head covering while ministering?

Similarly, the Bible nowhere prohibits men from having long hair.  If this were true, then the Nazirites with the Torah-prescribed long hair would have been in violation of God’s laws.

To properly understand Paul’s comments in this passage, we must understand some cultural and historical context. First, Corinth was an extremely libertine and licentious city sexually, since it housed a pagan temple dedicated to the goddess of fertility whose worship involved ritual or cultic prostitution and various sex acts. This was socially acceptable and even a social requirement, and a source of revenue for the temple. Second, the Torah and Hebraic biblical culture were very strict about maintaining the distinction between the genders. Any blurring of the lines was forbidden. This is why the Torah forbids crossdressing or one gender wearing the clothes pertaining to the other gender. These two contextual points must be considered when reading Paul’s instructions in this chapter. In other words, men were not to wear veils that covered their faces, while women were to either have long hair or to have head coverings as expressions of their femininity.

Concerning the angels, one commentator wrote:  “This warning ultimately takes readers back to the incident with the Watchers (sons of God) in Gen. 6:1-4”.

Genesis 6:1-2 NET When humankind began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, (2) the sons of God saw that the daughters of humankind were beautiful. Thus they took wives for themselves from any they chose.

1 Enoch 7:1-2 It happened after the sons of men had multiplied in those days, that daughters were born to them, elegant and beautiful.

2) And when the angels (Watchers), ⁽³⁾ the sons of heaven, beheld them, they became enamored of them, saying to each other, Come, let us select for ourselves wives from the progeny of men, and let us beget children.

1 Enoch 8:1 Moreover Azazyel taught men to make swords, knives, shields, breastplates, the fabrication of mirrors, and the workmanship of bracelets and ornaments, the use of paint, the beautifying of the eyebrows, the use of stones of every valuable and select kind, and all sorts of dyes, so that the world became altered.

It must be noted that neither Genesis 6:1-4 nor the first 16 chapters of 1 Enoch (which discusses Watchers and their interaction with human women) ever mention that Watchers were enamored by the hair of a woman, although it is possible.

The accepted explanation may be that angels could be offended If Paul’s comments on a woman’s position within the hierarchy of God is not followed with a hair covering signifying that a woman is the glory of a man and indirectly the glory of God.

Greek Theory of Hollow Hair

Dr. Michael Heiser wrote an article, based on information from another article and author, that Paul with his 1 Cor. 11 hair chapter got his information (which he apparently considered true) from a false Greek teaching that hair is hollow and is filled with semen.

Hippocratic authors hold that hair is hollow and grows primarily from either male or female reproductive fluid or semen flowing into it and congealing (Hippocrates, Nat puer 20). Since hollow body parts create a vacuum and attract fluid, hair attracts semen.

Hair grows most prolifically from the head because the brain is the place where the semen is produced or at least stored (Hippocrates, Genit. I). Hair grows only on the head of prepubescent humans because semen is stored in the brain and the channels of the body have not yet become large enough for reproductive fluid to travel throughout the body (Hippocrates, Nat. puer.20; Genit. 2).

At puberty, secondary hair growth in the pubic area marks the movement of reproductive fluid from the brain to the rest of the body (Hippocrates, Nat. puer. 20; Genit. I). Women have less body hair not only because they have less semen but also because their colder bodies do not froth the semen throughout their bodies but reduce semen evaporation at the ends of their hair (Hippocrates, Nat. puer. 20).

According to these medical authors, men have more hair because they have more semen and their hotter bodies froth this semen more readily throughout their whole bodies (Hippocrates, Nat. puer. 20). The nature (φύσις) of men is to release or eject the semen.

During intercourse, semen has to fill all the hollow hairs on its way from the male brain to the genital area (Aristotle, Probi. 893b. 10-17). Thus, men have hair growth on their face, chest, and stomach.  A man with long hair retains much or all of his semen, and his long hollow hair draws the semen toward his head area but away from his genital area, where it should be ejected. Therefore, 1 Cor 11:14 correctly states that it is a shame for a man to have long hair since the male nature (φύσις) is to eject rather than retain semen.

I personally do not believe that Paul was so stupid and ignorant to agree and adhere to the Greek hollow hair theory.  His reasoning for 1 Corinthians 11 was based on teaching modesty, the symbolic gesture of women to confirm they were wives, and for their current cultural clothing and hair style observance.

The Bikini and the Burka

By Henry Makow Ph.D.

On my wall, I have a picture of a Muslim woman shrouded in a burka.

Beside it is a picture of an American beauty contestant, wearing nothing but a bikini.

One woman is totally hidden from the public; the other is totally exposed. These two extremes say a great deal about the clash of so-called "civilizations."

The role of woman is at the heart of any culture. Apart from stealing Arab oil, the turmoil in the Middle East is about stripping Muslims of their religion and culture, exchanging the burka for a bikini.

I am not an expert on the condition of Muslim women and I love feminine beauty too much to advocate the burka here. But I am defending some of the values that the burka represents for me.

For me, the burka represents a woman's consecration to her husband and family. Only they see her. It affirms the privacy, exclusivity and importance of the domestic sphere.

The Muslim woman's focus is her home, the "nest" where her children are born and reared. She is the "home" maker, the taproot that sustains the spiritual life of the family, nurturing and training her children, providing refuge and support to her husband.

In contrast, the bikinied American beauty queen struts practically naked in front of millions on TV.  A feminist, she belongs to herself.  In practice, paradoxically, she is public property. She belongs to no one and everyone. She shops her body to the highest bidder. She is auctioning herself all of the time.

In America, the cultural measure of a woman's value is her sex appeal. (As this asset depreciates quickly, she is neurotically obsessed with appearance and plagued by weight problems.)

As an adolescent, her role model is Miley Cyrus, a singer whose act approximates a strip tease. From Miley, she learns that she will be loved only if she gives sex. Thus, she learns to "hook up" furtively rather than to demand patient courtship, love and marriage.

As a result, dozens of males know her before her husband does. She loses her innocence, which is a large part of her charm. She becomes hardened and calculating. Unable to love, she is unfit to receive her husband's seed.

FEMININITY

The feminine personality is founded on the emotional relationship between mother and baby. It is based on nurturing and self-sacrifice.  Masculinity is founded on the relationship between hunter and prey. It is based on aggression and reason.

Feminism deceives women to believe femininity has resulted in "oppression" and they should adopt male behavior instead.  The result: a confused and aggressive woman with a large chip on her shoulder, unfit to become a wife or mother.

This is the goal of the NWO social engineers: undermine sexual identity and destroy the family, create social and personal dysfunction, and reduce the population. In the "brave new world," women are not supposed to be mothers and progenitors of the race. They are meant to be autonomous sex objects.

Liberating women is often given as an excuse for the war in places like Afghanistan. Liberating them to what? To Miley Cyrus? To low-rise "see-my-thong" pants? To the mutual masturbation that passes for sexuality in America? If they really cared about women, maybe they'd end the war.

Since this article was written in 2002, it has been reposted on numerous Muslim,
Christian, and Hindu websites.  I revisit this reaffirmation of gender, marriage and family which are all under savage daily attack by Satanists (Liberals, Communists) in government, education & media.

"I am not advocating the burka but rather some of the values that it represents, specifically a woman's consecration to her future husband and family, and the modesty and dignity this entails."

Many people, even males, may consider an unattractive or overweight woman in a bikini as a perversion rather than a sensual exhibition.

X-22: The Final Gasps of the Deep State Dems

X-22: THE FINAL GASPS OF THE DEEP STATE DEMS

This article has been edited with spell checking, sentence structure, hanging sentences, and run on sentences.  If there are more errors then please forgive me.

The 4 AM Talking Points

Paul Sperry (Former D.C. bureau chief for Investor's Business Daily), did some digging and he might have found how the 4 AM talking points are created and how they are disseminated among the mainstream media, key Democratic operatives, and private investigators who tried to derail Trump's campaign by claiming he was a tool of the Kremlin

They have rebooted their operation since Trump’s election with a multi-million dollar stealth campaign to persuade major media outlets and lawmakers that the president should be impeached.  The effort has successfully placed a series of questionable stories alleging secret back channels and meetings between Trump associates and Russian spies while influencing related investigations and reports from Congress.

The operations nerve center is a Washington's based nonprofit called the democracy integrity project or TTIP.  Among other activities it pumps out daily research briefings to prominent Washington journalists as well as congressional staffers to keep the Russia collusion narrative alive.

 TTIP is led by Daniel J Jones a former FBI investigator, Clinton administration volunteer and top staffer to California Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein.  It employs the key opposition research figures behind the salacious unverified dossier fusion of GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson and ex British intelligence officer Christopher Steele

Its financial backers include the actor-director Rob Reiner and billionaire activist George Soros.  Now you know why Rob Reiner is screaming at the top of his lungs all the time with negative comments about Mr. Trump.  The project's work has been largely shrouded in mystery but a month-long examination by clear investigations drawn from

Documents and more than a dozen interviews found that the organization is running an elaborate media influenced operation that includes driving and shaping daily coverage of the Russia collusion theory as well as pushing stories about Trump in the national media that attempt to tie the President or is associates to Russia.

The group also feeds information to FBI and congressional investigators and then tells reporters that authorities are investigating those leads five days a week.  TTIP emails a newsletter to influential Democrats and prominent Beltway journalists under the heading TTIP research which summarizes the latest collusion news and offers points of interest to inspire fresh stories regarding Trump's alleged ties to Russia.

Recipients of the TDI report include staffers at the New York Times, Washington Post, and investigative reporters at BuzzFeed, Pro Publica, and McClatchy as well as news producers at CNN and MSNBC.  According to a source familiar with the projects email

distribution lists. Democratic aides on Capitol Hill also subscribed to the newsletter.

The briefings typically run several pages and include an executive summary and links to court documents and Congressional testimony, letters and memos as well as new articles and videos.  For example on March 13th TDI highlighted former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort’s sentencing without informing readers that special counsel Robert Mueller closed the case without any collusion accusations against Manafort, who was punished for personal financial crimes.

If we go back to Q-post 760 where Q mentioned the 4 AM talking points several times throughout that particular post but if we go back to post 760 it says:

Snowden thank you for showing the world how clowns passed the narrative to journalists at 4 a.m.

reread crumbs

secure drop

John Perry Barlow cue

So it looks like this is part of the 4 AM drop; this is how the news gets out there so quickly; and this is how the narrative is created.  There are certain individuals who are funding all this identical information that is being distributed to the mainstream media that puts out these fake stories. They are trying to control what people hear and see. So what do we call this we call this?  It is known as “propaganda”.

There is no investigative reporting.  It is merely getting the news feeds to the right people and they are simply using the information they are receiving without checking any facts.

The Census

Trump calls the census meaningless without the citizenship question.  He tweeted out the following:  

“Can you believe that our radical left Democrats want to do our new and very important census report without the OEL important citizenship question?  The report would be meaningless and a waste of the billions that it costs to put together”.

The president’s comments come one year head of the next census milestone, April 1st 2020, the date by which the Census Bureau plans to send a letter or doorknockers to every US household.  This massive data collection is undertaken every 10 years and has major implications including alterations to the apportioning of congressional seats, the drawing of political districts, and allocations of local and federal funding.

A federal judge in New York blocked the Trump administration from adding the question in January by arguing that the addition concerning citizenship was illegal and intended to discriminate against non-citizens.  Of course, this is absolutely ridiculous.  I mean you're not discriminating against them, you're asking them a question: are you or are you not a citizen of the United States?  

Now since this was shot down in a New York Court it is now moving to the Supreme Court in April and a decision should come by late June.  Trump has to go through this routine many times:  that is he starts off in the ninth circuit or in the courts of New York, or someplace else, and then it moves into the Supreme Court and then they make a ruling. 

Of course it seems that the Supreme Court always rules in the complete opposite way that the other courts have ruled so I do believe that Trump is going to get this question on the census.  This is very important for the elections coming up because it's going to show how many non-citizens are here in the United States and I think there's a lot more than we even think.

Electoral College, Voting 16 Year Olds

But don't get too complacent, the deep state:  they're in a frenzy; they are in a panic; they don't know what to do.  They are trying to manipulate the elections any way they possibly can.   Remember Pelosi wants to allow 16 year-olds to vote and they're very angry at Trump because he won't let the illegals in because they use those votes.  The Democrats are now trying to get rid of the Electoral College.

Senator Brian Schatz who is a Democrat in Hawaii is set this week to introduce a

Constitutional amendment to abolish the Electoral College.  Is this going to happen?  Most likely not, but it is supported by Kirsten Gillibrand, Dick Durbin, Dianne Feinstein and many others.  

So why is it going to be tough to pass this?  Because first it needs to win over two-thirds of both chambers of Congress.  Then it must be ratified by three-fourths of the states.  I don't believe this is going to happen now.  So why are they so worried; why are they pushing so hard; because Trump is shutting down every piece of manipulation that they're trying to do.  They didn’t want a wall; they wanted the illegals to come in while a wall is being built; and we have border agents stopping the illegals from coming into the country.

They can't use the votes from the illegals; they want to have 16 year-olds vote (I don't believe that's going to happen); they don't want the citizenship question on the census questionnaire.  I believe the Supreme Court is going to say, “Yeah there's no problem with that” (i.e. citizenship question).

Voter ID

We're going to find out “wow” there's a lot of illegals in this country and what is that going to mean?  They're going to take it to the next level.  Remember since the midterm they've been tracking; they've been investigating; they've been recording all of the voter fraud that has been going on.  They have a report on all the above information.

Q has told us that voter IDs are coming.  Think about what they're going to use.  They're going to use the census; they're going to use the (Mueller) investigation; they're going to use all of this to push voter ID.  Most likely we will see voter IDs before the 2020 election which means the deep state they're screwed.

Gun Control

Out in California it looks like things are not going well for the gun control groups and all those individuals in government who want to get rid of our weapons.  On Friday a San Diego-based US District Judge ruled that California's law against high-capacity gun magazines was unconstitutional.  California law has prohibited buying or selling a magazine with over ten rounds since 2000 but those who had them before that time were allowed to keep them.  In 2016 the legislature and voters approved a law removing that permission.

The California arm of the National Rifle Association then sued and the judge signed it with the group's argument in defense of the right to bear arms.  He cited stories of three woman confronted by armed intruders in their homes.  One woman who had a high-capacity magazine was able to kill one of the three armed intruders; scared the others off; and called for help at the same time.  The other two women ran out of bullets during the home attack. 

A federal judge declared California's ban on high-capacity gun magazines over ten rounds as unconstitutional on Friday following a lawsuit by the National Rifle Association.  A US district judge ruled the law against high-capacity gun magazines was unconstitutional and blocked the State from enforcing the voter approved ban outlined in California's Proposition 63.

What's very interesting about all of this is that these gun grabbers who want to get rid of our weapons keep creating laws that say:  well you're not allowed to have this; well you are not allowed to have this.  If we just go back to all the amendments that the founding fathers created; they're very simple; they're easy to follow; and we don't need all these other laws.  If you read the Second Amendment it's very straightforward:  a well-regulated militia being necessary for the security of a Free State. The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Now the founding fathers didn't say the right of the people to keep a musket; the right of the people to keep a single-shot pistol; the right of the American people to keep a knife.  They specifically said the right of the people to keep and bear arms, any arms.  We have the right to have them that's why they put it in there just like that because they knew that weapons would advance as time went on and they needed a word in there to say all weapons that were equal to the military.  Because they knew that this Second Amendment protected everything else; because a people that have the power of a weapon they are in control; and the people that are stripped of this weapon they are controlled.  This is so simple but the deep state wants to make it very complicated and make it seem like we don't have these rights and they can take them away at any time.

A Comey Coded Message

James Comey has tweeted out another strange coded message where he says, “I'm in.   We need someone in the middle hashtag 2020”.  This was written a picture of him on a road looking down the street and his back is toward us.  Now we know the middlemen who are Comey, Brennan, and Schiff. 

Is he saying that they're planning something for 2020?  But we need someone else maybe, (i.e. another person) and he's confirming that he's in?  It seems like there's another plan forming right now.  I do believe with the 2020 elections (coming up) that we haven't seen the (actual) Democratic candidate for the 2020 elections.  

Yes we have Biden, Beto and all these other individuals that are saying they're running but I believe the deep state is keeping one candidate behind the scenes.   They'll bring this individual out and this individual will have been groomed for this position similar to what they did with Obama.   Everything about him (Obama) was shaped perfectly, he came out of nowhere and I believe this next candidate will be brought to the attention of the American people.  However this time I don't think it's going to fly because we understand how the deep state works.

The Bidens and Ukraine

Creepy Joe Biden’s misogyny and sexism is being protected by the Democrats, the Trump haters and the MSM.  He appears to be having a lot of problems with his touchy-feely antics but this may not be his main problem.

His biggest problem may be in Ukraine along with Hillary, Obama, and several others.  Back when Ukraine was in the middle of regime change, the deep state spent five billion to push the riots there to overthrow an elected leader and place their personal choice into power.  This was part of the plan by Obama, John Kerry, and Joe Biden.

When their Ukraine plan was successful Vic President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden accepted a position on the board of Ukraine’s largest private gas firm.  Hunter Biden is now on the board of Burisma Holdings.  Also John Kerry’s family friend, a stepson, also joined Berisma Holdings.

At the same time Ukraine admits that their gold was stolen from them.  A total of 42.3 tons of gold was taken from their Central Bank.  We (i.e. X-22) reported all of this but going back in time we remember planes landed in the middle of the night and they loaded up boxes and boxes of something which I would assume was the gold.  The question is where is all this gold today?

Two years after leaving office Joe Biden couldn't resist a temptation last year to brag to an audience of foreign policy specialists about the time as vice president that he strong-armed Ukraine into firing its top prosecutor.  In other words with the video cameras rolling, Biden described how he threatened Ukrainian President Poroshenko in March of 2016 by saying the Obama administration would pull 1 billion in US loan guarantees sending the former Soviet republic toward insolvency if it didn't immediately fire the prosecutor general Viktor Shokan. 

Now the question is why did they push so hard to get rid of the prosecutor?  Ukrainian officials said that “yes” parts of the information of the story that Biden told was true but he didn't mention something very specific.  The prosecutor he got fired was leading a wide-ranging corruption probe into the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings that employed Biden's younger son Hunter as a board member.  

US banking records show Hunter Biden's American based firm Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC received regular transfers into one of its accounts usually more than 166 thousand a month from spring 2014 through 2015 during a period when Biden was the main US official dealing with Ukraine and its tense relations with Russia.

Today this case has been reopened and it looks like the Ukrainian police agency in charge of investigating corruption has been dragging its feet in the past. 

An agency is looking further and further into this to see what really happened and Biden should have to answer these questions because it looks like they were covering up what they were doing out in Ukraine.
