German Elections
Merkel and her coalition ‘won’ the German elections held in late September. The Alternative for German party did not attain the 5% level, but while they failed to gain seats in the Bundestag, their achievement of winning 4.7% of the vote was seen as a victory of sorts. http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/press-review-and-news-roundup-on-german-coalition-talks-a-925327.html Merkel and her allies failed to … Continue reading “German Elections”
Recent Thoughts
I have often touched upon how global warming and climatic change may tie into some of the prophecies found in Revelation. One link may be found in how global warming is affecting the world’s oceans. Not only is global warming causing a marked increase in shallow waters of the ocean, but the temperature of the … Continue reading “Recent Thoughts”
A Start to a New Year
A new year has started and with it comes expectations that we will have a very ‘interesting’ year. Legal ‘recreational’ marijuana sales have begun in Colorado and the Boy Scouts are now opened to gays (and I would guess transsexuals of any gender as well). The so called ‘cultural war’ is being lost, but the … Continue reading “A Start to a New Year”
The Boycott
We have argued that the current economic policies of the federal government are putting America on a path that leads to the dominion of the Beast.

The Boycott — continued
The children of the Beast have opened a new front in their efforts to create a more decadent society, with the ultimate goal of keeping more young people from becoming Believers. They are championing the ‘rights’ of transvestite school children to use the restrooms and locker rooms of the opposite sex at their local schools. … Continue reading “The Boycott — continued”
Who says science disproves the Bible?
Some of the prophecies in Revelations are framed in such massive scale, it is understandable that even some so-called Christians argue that the Bible is pure symbolism or some giant allegory. A recent article published by the scientific publication, National Geoscience, (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-25598050), has actually served to make one prophecy of Revelation all too real. The … Continue reading “Who says science disproves the Bible?”
The German Supreme Court busts a move….not
Last year, a number of plaintiffs, includes the Bundesbank, went to the German Supreme Court in an attempt to stop the ECB from implementing its announced Outright Monetary Transactions (aka OMT) program, where the ECB will buy ‘unlimited’ amounts of member states’ government debt. The plaintiffs argued that the OMT program violated agreed upon treaties … Continue reading “The German Supreme Court busts a move….not”
News Flash
The long awaited decision by the German Supreme Court regarding the ECB’s OMT program was released today. As we suspected, the court found that the OMT program was outside of the mandate of the ECB and that it violated rules prohibiting the monetarization of member government’s debt. However, the German High Court deferred its final … Continue reading “News Flash”
