storytime: The lost heroine

 there are a lot of stories out there that don't get told, and since I used to frame stories to tell my granddaughter, who is now away at college, I have no one to do this for.

Reframing stories mean you fictionalize them to bring out the truth.

I'll give an example.

In Columbine, there were reports on CNN of survivors telling the story of a girl who when asked if she believed in God, said yes, and then was promptly killed. 

The press later deliberately distorted the story since it was an inspiring story that painted Christian believers in a good light and we can't have that can we.

Yet a review of the tapes made by the killers did include tirades against their Christian classmates... And they named names, including Rachel and one black boy who they planned to kill for being Christian, and indeed, who were later killed.

Well, anyway, the mother who first jumped into the story claiming it was her daughter was quickly debunked by the surviving girl next to her daughter saying she didn't remember this (never mind that memory in such times is faulty: something any cop can tell you). 

And then Rachel's mother said her daughter was the martyr. True, she was killed for being a Christian, but was she the one who refused to deny God? Who knows.... But there were no witnesses.

In the meanwhile, the tapes were quietly hidden from view so no reporter could review what happened, and the press went over the top ridiculing the Christian parents, until the real story... including the girls who I actually saw live on Larry King who started the story, went down the memory hole, to be gaslighted into a nonstory.

Ironically, the real story was that yes, there was such a girl: And there were witnesses. But she was Catholic, and survived despite being shot with a shotgun at close range, but she was in ICU for quite a long time and could not tell the story.

So the movie that never was is this: sort of the retelling of a cry in the dark, on the press distorting a story because the protagonist was an ordinary Christian.

But after the story, we show a single interview of the real survivor where she does admit she was the one who was shot for saying she believed in God (verified by those around her and/or the tapes). And when asked why she remained quiet, she says humbly: Well, I was in ICU and didn't know what was going on, and when I was well enough to respond, I realized that the parents found the story it was their daughters comforting, so I didn't want to take that comforting story away from them. 

her story is at the NCRegister.

 In Revelations, there is a place where the author mentions the chastisements don't stop people from their choosing murder and witchcraft.

Of course, in these days of the Democratic party literally having witches in their ranks and embracing (and even rejoicing) in murdering their unborn children, one can see that the covid chastisement hasn't done much to change their mind.

Sigh.

But anyway I was listening to Dilbert, an athiest and libertarian, discussing using drugs, and he pointed out that his entire life was changed by a single dose of a hallucinogen. Well, that explains a lot. Sigh. But what he also noted was that the big shots in Silicon valley also embraced using hallucinogens as a way of life.

I had run across this before: LINK.

It is well-known that the godhead of technology and entrepreneurship, Steve Jobs, said using LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) when he was young was one of the most enlightening experiences in his life and helped his creative process. It's little wonder then that others in Silicon Valley, where creativity is valued above almost all else, are turning on to psychedelics.

They're a staple among many of the startup founders, investors, and developers at the annual Burning Man festival, and have crossed over to a wider crowd throughout the year.

the burning man festival is of course a pagan meeting under the guise of fun, yet the original burning man was the murder of a person as a tribute to pagan gods, where a man was enclosed in a cage of wicker to increase fertility.

Rather than using them for recreational purposes, though, some people in the Valley and elsewhere have begun viewing these substances as practical tools for harnessing creativity and solving complex problems. Beginning with the legal acid tests of the 1950s and 1960s, users have taken hallucinogens in doses of 100 to 200 micrograms, causing them to trip. Instead, entrepreneurs and others lately have been experimenting with ingesting "micro-doses"--typically one-fifth of a standard dose for psilocybin and one-tenth of a standard dose for LSD--in an effort to perform better at work. At those levels, the user does not get high and does not trip.

the article includes a description of one user's mental "improvement":

 

John Andrew, a Canadian documentarian who is legally blind, took small doses of psilocybin mushrooms every day for six months in 2014 (a greater frequency than the standard protocol calls for). He says he started to feel positive effects after four weeks. "I experienced this clarity that is almost indescribable," ..."I felt a homeostasis, a feeling that despite what's going on, bad or good, everything was OK. I felt present, focused, a clarity that was telling me this is how I am supposed to feel." At the six-month mark, he says, he felt he was "maximizing [his] potential." He says he would have continued, but he ran out of mushrooms and had to wait for the rainy season to get more.

which explains why psychiatrists are using it for mentally depressed patients and get wonderful result (/s)... even though the articles fail to mention that their patients are probably not a cross section of depressed folks but a sub selection of those who are willing to take drugs, not to mention that many might be depressed from previous drug use.

All of this brings me to a point of wondering if this, like most of the rejection of traditional ethics and religion and morals in the 1960s is diabolic in origin.

When I read about all the loneliness of western societies, and the recent gender craze that denies "male and female God made them", I wonder if this too is a poisoned flower that will lead to terrible fruits in a decade or two.

Indeed, the negative side of the internet social media sites and their cooperation with the NWO etc makes one wonder. 

Sigh.
