What day is it.....if you are on a stranded island???

Ok so lets say you were on a boat in the middle of the ocean.  Your boat toppled and now you were abandoned on an island.  You have absolutely NO communication ability.

Thankfully, you learned how to survive various things.  You learned building fires from nothing but dry wood.  You learned how to trap fish from nothing but twigs.  You learned how to build a fort.  You learned other things of that sort.

Socially, we as humans are used to the concept that there is a "seven day week"...... so we SHOULD know how to calculate "time" based off of that principle.  How would you calculate the day of the week at the very least?

Here are things you would need to know if you absolutely wanted to calculate what day it happened to be on that island.

1. You would need to know the approximate latitude and longitude of your island.  (this isn't absolutely essential, but it is important for knowing the location of the constellations and planets.)  You could probably guess your latitude and longitude based on the animals and nature that surrounds you.  (ie. buffalo are found?, kangaroos are found? red-wood forests are found?, olive trees are found? Giraffes are found? Polar Bears are found? etc etc.)

2. You would need to know the "design of the sky" when Jesus(Yeshua in Hebrew) was on the cross.  Assuming he was on the cross in AD 31 in the spring, on Passover. (moon is in new moon because the sky was darkened from 6th hour to 9th hour)  Recognize that the MENORAH....has seven golden lamps...and seven signs are visible when Christ was on cross (5 visible planets of ancient days, moon and sun).




3. You would need to know the approximate location of the full moon astronomical position each month. (This should be easy to know and figure out especially if you have studied axial procession and current positions in the farmer's almanac)  The full moon ALWAYS rises when the sun sets, so timing of the month can be based off of when the full moon rises.

4. You would need to know the timing of the planets as they move through the sky.  For example the astronomical position of the planet Almighty God(Jupiter) changes every year one constellation position.  The planet Ringed Planet (Saturn) changes astronomical position approximately every 3 years.  The planet Red Planet (Mars) changes astronomical position approximately every month depending upon the size of the constellation.  The planet Morning Star (Venus) goes through an 8 year phase and 5 cycles pass.

5. Obviously assume you probably won't be capable of identifying "mercury" without a telescope, and you will only be capable of seeing the big planets Red Planet, Ringed Planet, Almighty God, and Morning Star.

6. If a person studies the Qumran Calendar diligently enough, they WILL discover that the timing of the "full moon" ALWAYS occurs on a CERTAIN day of the week.

*****

Lets go with this pretend formula based off of what you know.

Things you know:

The planet locations: Ringed Planet(Saturn) is located in constellation Virgo, Almighty God (Jupiter) planet is located in constellation Cancer, Red Planet(Mars) is located in Aires, Morning Star (venus) is located in Taurus....you can't see Mercury with your naked eye.

The moon locations: The day you land it is about 1/4 full and it is in Gemini, then it moves to cancer and gains more illumination each day as its astronomical position changes.  Assuming the full moon will land in approximately Libra.

Know how to do some long division.

1. Divide the number of years since Christ was on the cross by the astronomical position of Ringed Planet. Every 30 years the planet Ringed Planet returns to same position.....but it moves a little too because of axial procession and other things.  As a result every 90 years it changes the location it is found.  Every 1620 years it will once again be in the same astronomical position.  Remember the number 1620 and within every 1620 years has 18 different positions.



A chart showing the position of ringed planet since the year 31.



31+1620 * (knowing that we are in a certain century)+(30, 60 or 90)*[number of positions away from Gem 1-18].  Example formula for our era = 31+ 1620*1 + 30*[1-18] = 1921?? or within 90 year range  (assume that Saturn Astronomical position is in the 1921 year range or 2011 year range?)........this formula could obviously be adjusted to suit the right calculations....but it is a general understanding on how to find the location based on axial procession adjustments by 1000 year adjustments.

Finding the location of Almighty God planet.  Similar to Saturn there is a number of years cycle where the planet returns or shifts to a new astronomical position.  Every 12 years the planet rotates the sun.  Every 84 years (7 rotations), the planet moves to a new astronomical position.  There are 12 exact positions.  84*12 = 1008 years.  Of course due to axial procession, the astronomical position shifts a little bit.

Basically use Ringed Planet and Almighty God planet to determine the YEAR (Sorry the exact year formula isn't given....but I know its there, I promise) while still considering axial procession since AD 31.  Write down the year in the "sand" or on a "piece of bark" somewhere.

Next is finding the month.

This is a little bit easier in some ways, especially if you already know some things and you already know the general YEAR that you are in.

Seasonally, determine the season if you are sure that you are in a "seasonal location" instead of at the equator.  If that isn't available, don't worry, just look at the constellations and the location of the "full moon."

The planet Morning Star and Red Planet change Astronomical Position about every month.

Similar to the planet Almighty God and Ringed Planet, Red planet returns to similar position every 32 years or every 96 years accordingly.  Amazingly the planet Morning Star fits into the 96 year pattern!!!!  96/8 = 12!!!!

So the position of Morning Star and Red Planet WILL help understand the proper MONTH time frame to use (from a Qumran Calendar)!

Essentially, the pattern by MONTH will appear based on the location of the planets in astronomical position.  The planet Morning Star would remain centered near the constellations close to the sun, while the planet Red Planet would start to shift through the 12 constellations.

I would look like this perhaps, as adjusted every 96 years (Morning Star on Left, and Red Planet on Right in the chart):


The pattern by "month" would change as needed.

Essentially a person on a stranded island wouldn't have a particular chart that would show the pattern, but if a person is familiar with the movement of Morning Star through the 8 year cycle, something could be determined as far as proper month is concerned.

Considering that 96 years can easily divide into "3 year cycles" (32, 3 year cycles), a person could assume to use the Qumran Calendar (which used MOON/SUN) as heavenly signs to determine the DAY OF THE WEEK!

The Qumran Calendar GIVES all the details about what phase of the moon to look for in the heavens.  of course the Qumran Calendar was used in latitude and longitude from the viewing point of Jerusalem/Israel.

Example: Assume that the full moon in calendar cycle one always takes place on the 4th day of the week.  the full moon is ALWAYS located near constellation [1-12] in this season/time of the year during [1000 year] era.

In summary, if you know how to find the YEAR [based on knowing the 1000 year era in axial procession] by looking at the heavens and planet position [Almighty God and Ringed Planet] and you have your special 96 year [Red Planet compared to Morning Star] chart (a plane flew by and dropped it off for you.....he hahaha) which shows the MONTH of the year to use in a Qumran Calendar, then you could easily SOLVE this puzzle......and find out WHEN the SABBATH DAY happened to be.....and when.....well other "biblical holidays" could be celebrated.......around the earth (from Puriim to Passover and everything in between).  What passover time calendar time will a person use?  It is dependent upon the choice to use the modern Jewish calendar vs. the Qumran calendar (which can adjust with solar timing as needed).  Both calendars are "lunar cycle" dependent.  The difference is that the Qumran calendar points out the "day of the week" and starts on "full moon" for some cases, while the modern Jewish calendar always starts on sliver of the moon, time frame, WITHOUT pointing to the special "day of the week."

Should children be removed from transgender homes???

The answer is obvious to those who have a biblical view of things (judeo/Christian perspective).  The answer is NOT obvious to the unbelieving world or those who profess unusual faiths which pervert justice.

There is a scale of behavior in men in general.  1 to 10.  1 being natural conditions that are expressions that may be needed for a certain survival condition with the good of the child in mind to 10 being absurd/abusive and contrary to the good of the child.

In other words, a man lost his wife.  The man doesn't practice anything sexual impure with other men or even with other women.  He needs to take on feminine roles.  Some may even call him a "nursing father" or a "gentle man" for being so willing to have the humble nature.  He is not arrogant in his role as caring for the home and for his children.  His brother may stop by some times to help raise this child.  There is no condition of hatred towards outsiders.  They regularly have the children invest their time in other things besides only focusing on gender or sexuality (like building something, fixing something, cooking something etc).  Maybe they even go to a pow-wow and dress up in traditional outfits sometimes.  The "transgender condition" really isn't sexual impurity derived, its just switching roles to benefit the good of the child.

These cases are PERFECTLY NORMAL and need NO INTERVENTION by the state or other resource, other than perhaps a faith/family/community group to assist.

on the other hand.

Two men (or more) practice extremely perverted things (when the children are exposed to the acts).  They display themselves in public.  They don't care if they expose their children to "dirty movies."  They encourage their children to perform only sexually deprived acts in public.  They regularly call all people "haters" who are disgusted the way the children seem to be so inefficient at caring for others in public (especially traditional family life, and people who just live ordinary lives rich or poor without flare).  The children NEVER study things other than the gender-fluidity subjects and always appear to dress in clown-like outfits.  The children never just go for walks in the park to observe nature.  The children never learn how to ride bikes, go fishing or even how to fix vehicles with dad.  So on and so forth.  Clearly, there is something deprived in the child's life because the parenting is not effective towards actual reality that the child will face.


The case where it is likely that the children were EXPOSED to something perverted or contrary to general rules of proper moral behavior from a biblical point of view and even natural/culture point of view, children should be given better options for home life.  From a general criminal viewpoint, the parents who purposefully "pervert" the child, need to have intervention in some way.  Depending upon the area, country and county where the child lives will make a difference in the outcome for such a case.  In general, Christians shouldn't ever take children away from parents and really don't always put full confidence in "the state." (sharing some time in a bible study and a meal will do plenty to change the child's heart).  But if the child is in danger (like the missionary who knows something is contrary to biblical conditions), it MAY be necessary to protect the child from their own parents.  If it is possible in some areas (some of the most perverted parents) should be sent to prison.  If the child is sex-trafficked immediately contact authorities and have the "parents" put where they belong (if depravity is severe enough, death penalty is better than continuing with such perversion and communication with such people of depravity).

If you or someone you know lives near a "transgender person(s)" (there really are only about 1/1000 to 3/1000 per population, determine if they are gospel approving or gospel disapproving.  Social choices with such person will be dependent as each person needs to repent of sin in one way or another.  Men (those who have the ability to impregnante or get circumcised with male hormone tendencies) who believe they belong in a "girls locker room," are clearly not understanding gospel principles.  Jesus himself was a MAN (the transgender NEEDS to agree with that principle), and he was circumcised (women simply cannot safely get circumcised).  Jesus said to do this with "the enemy" (of the gospel)....."Rom_12:20  Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head."  don't run to the lawyer or crime detective (unless you suspect extreme danger).

Set more goals.....instead of an instantaneous resolution.....


Life comes and goes in a FLASH.  Our ideas on how to handle things could change in an INSTANT.

Perhaps it is better to set various goals.....and then set the timer to allow yourself to accomplish those things.

Here are a variety of goals a person may have:

1. Read one book a week

2. Visit relatives personally, not through internet connections.

3. Take care of the needy people in your area (visit, coffee, tea, share a few conversations etc.)

4. Meditate on bible at a better hour of the day.  Accomplish a certain number of chapters in a week.  Spread the full reading out in 15 minute sessions throughout the day (morning, noon, family time and night)
          *Possible Practice: 5 Psalms and 1 proverb based on the day of the month (use as a devotional)
                                       1 chapter in "law portion" based on parashah reading
                                       2-3 chapters in Old Testament passages
                                       1 chapter in "gospel" portion
                                       1-2 chapters in New Testament portion.
        *Possible activities: Write down the verses.  Use the topics to teach/home-education.  Share verses with other via media outlets or gospel tract style......

5. Sew more clothing instead of buying new. (saves stress on trading with foreign labor costs!!)

6. Give to more charities.

7. Make more money by doing xyz.

8. Start a small business.

9. Grow a complete garden.

10. Bake more bread.

11. Keep vehicles clean and up-to-date on paperwork, repairs

12. Spring clean one thing each week (less stress during actual spring cleaning season).

13. Look for more frugal options when doing xyz.

14. Learn about survival cooking and wild-edible foods.

15. Spend more time outside instead of in front of screens.

16. Have children go to the park more often.

17. Help children do more chores and keep up with their personal things (grooming, tidiness, basic skills etc.)

18. Go to more places with educational content (parks, museums, physical fitness, piano practice etc.)

19. Encourage children to build more positive friendships.

20. Take the courage to say how much you care about someone more......

etc etc.

Yes, and the fitness routines may be a resolution too.....

Is a college degree worth it?

Actually, it depends upon what type of degree it is.  What is the purpose of the degree.  Does the degree fit one's moral-code? and things of that sort.

A person who went into the medical field but HATES the pharmaceutical companies WILL have trouble finding a job that works for them.  So that degree in "pre-med" may be worthless for some students.  For others, they decide to go with the chiropractor route to fulfill their goals.

In a general sense, a person can learn the trade of "selling bikes" to anyone on the spot without a college degree.  But if the bike business turns into a multi-billion dollar industry with a lot of customers looking for a specific type of bike, the little college degree in "History" might have some use, if the college student actually used their degree to learn about things of value in regards to the invention of the bike.  In other words, the history pictures and little knowledge about this or that, could end up adding an additional 10,000$ a year to the sales ability.

Unfortunately, MANY colleges have turned themselves over to a far-left agenda cesspool, where if you don't accept this transgender man's child for their "gender-less" condition, you are a "bigot" in their eyes......yet, the child is clearly biologically a female (she could easily be a target of traffickers.....even transgender sex-traffickers).  As a result, morals and genuine TRUTH are not accepted at these colleges.  Mere moral nonsense is their only game plan......especially in the plan to eliminate Christ and Jewishness of Jesus (circumcision and all) from the big-picture.

This, is clearly evidence of child-abuse/neglect from a biblical point of view:


This video illustrates that there are various public school teachings that encourage behavior that is against God's word (children are not taught to approve of the behavior of the squirrel that gathers the nuts.....in other words....just social indoctrination).  A child who is CONSTANTLY exposed to this "lifestyle" will believe in it.....but a child who is POINTED and TAUGHT things from the BIBLE will believe in things from the BIBLE.




SJW who don't know the reality to which they are supporting....can create the SAME havoc that they assume is only done to their "victim group." (not proposing that fox-news fixes things in this world, but to illustrate)



Of course there ARE places where it seems that the REAL ASPECT of LOVE is eliminated from college teachings and they ONLY focus on "hating" those who are locked in their sin.....such teachings do not contribute to the REALITY that JESUS focused attention towards "brotherly love" to help redeem man from sin.  An education IS needed to help understand the VULNERABLE PEOPLE of our society and to meet their BASIC needs.





In the case where a student can only choose from far-left colleges which hold no moral foundation, a college degree will NEVER be worth it in those situations (ISIS terror group is recruiting members they say.....stop being so ISLAMOPHOBIC!!! ahem).  Nazi Germans didn't want Jewish people (and Christians who supported them, on their campus back in the day), so why should it surprise us that VERY FEW (mainly technical or trade skills) campus' environments actually TEACH TRUTH to the students and simply want to remove all evidence that there IS such thing as morally good vs. morally bad behavior (even in the sexuality environments) and statistical evidences to boot.

Try the book www.remenanteducation.blogspot.com for a shot at positive and inspirational method of attaining higher education goals instead of catering and funding corrupted teachers and institutions.

In summary, a college degree is ONLY worth it, IF the results are an actual career to go with it (and the morals WORK with you and your future household and for your community).  Otherwise, simply being an "independent student" will get a person just as far, and possibly farther.  Join the local chess club, pick up a new language or two, and fill in one's time calculating integrals freely.  Eventually the provisional genius will arise from within.  There isn't always a need to pay a large sum of time, money and gas.

What to ask a college campus BEFORE paying money.....

The word "university" means .....TRUTH....in a general sense, as "verity" is found in the word university.  Ensure that the college to where you will spend much time, energy and effort to "get the degree," is truly interested in revealing what IS happening in nature and in this world (overcoming of oppression) by definition.  Counterfeit "definitions" are promoted by some college campuses.  Putting TRUE victims at risk.  Particularly women, children, minorities, widows and so forth.  These questions SHOULD apply to Christian and non-Christian campuses.


What type of person gets prostate cancer?

What type of person gets lung cancer?

What type of person gets ovarian cancer?

What type of person gets brain cancer?

A person has a "tenor voice" in a choir.  How would you describe this person?

A person has an "alto voice" in a choir.  How would you describe this person?

A person's opinions are rejected from a local newspaper.  The person holds messianic/conservative Christian views and has Jewish heritage by DNA test? What is wrong or right with this situation?

Should a person with less than 1% of a certain minority heritage qualify for minority benefits?

(pretend you are a waitress/waiter)  A person with a beard brings in a child with a pink dress and asks for coffee.  You are busy and cannot help the customer.  What types of things would you tell the waitress that is available?

(pretend you work at a prom-dress store)  A person with long hair walks into a prom-dress store, and is wearing a dress and asks to use the restroom?  The men's restroom is on one side and women's restroom is on the other side of the store and there is more than one stall in each bathroom.  You didn't look up the name of this person to see if there was a criminal record.

Or similar questions like this.  Perhaps ask someone who holds biblical views AND a bachelor degree to design further questions to PROTECT you from funding an inadequate college which is NOT truth based but only there for financial status.

Suggestion: NEVER attend a college that doesn't consider GENERAL SAFETY for the NATURAL CONDITIONS of humanity (ie. a toddler is not an aged adult which can make proper decisions regarding the topics of sexuality and safety in that regard.  Proper definitions and situational considerations, PROTECTS the most vulnerable from a legal standpoint.)  The WAY a student defines and considers things, makes a WORLD of a difference in overcoming oppression and injustices.  These things may also apply to other types of schools or employment within the school as well (K12, online schools, private or public, continuing education etc).  Definitions matter there too.

Should a home-education child read EVERY missionary story?

The question is this, should a home-education child read EVERY missionary story, especially if they are coming from a Christian household?

The answer is simply this.

Absolutely NO.

There are MANY cases where a child who grew up in a "missionary household" or a "Christian household" is exposed to TOO much Christianity where they completely INSULT the work of GOD in TRUE Christian households!

YIKES!

It would be better for a child to go to a public school from the age of 10-14 for a semester or two and only occasionally hear a missionary story, while instead immersing themselves in "real life" stories of various people groups.

Look at it like this, if a child is "indoctrinated" to ONLY become a missionary, they will TURN away from the truth and dislike it!  Yes, the bible says to do OTHER things besides constant evangelism.  It says to praise him, glorify him, sing hymns etc.  Read the story of King David.  He went through many many ups and downs.  So don't assume that "mission work" is the ULTIMATE life of a Christian.

Simply encourage the child to DO GOOD in GOD's EYES and not in MAN'S EYES.  Show examples of that in SOME mission work, but more in the work of WHAT the HOLY SPIRIT DID in people's lives that caused them to turn from bad to good works.

Here are some suggested reading materials:

Voice of the Martyrs - sometimes

Anabaptist publications and persecutions - more often

Jewish culture and history - more often

General suffering of the people of any walk of life (even issues in famous people) - off and on

so on and so forth.

In reality, a person should be SPECIFICALLY CALLED to do mission work.  It is NOT just for anyone who wants to "show off" and give out their name to a stranger in a foreign country.

It is EASIER for a poor man to share gospel through a facebook feed than it is for a rich man who "went to a special college" to share the gospel in the right way and to have the right sort of LOVE for the people they are trying to reach.

LOVE covers a multitude of SIN......so it is best to ensure LOVE is there in the first place.

There are MANY MANY MANY people right here in the USA who believe that the "feminist" movement is all about woman's rights.....when it is actually all about "themselves" and avoiding the reality of what it means to live righteously......thus ignoring TRUE human-rights (and woman's rights) in various parts of the globe (evidence of anti-semitism and far-left political nonsense).  We can simply thank those who claimed Christian background, but the hearts of the children were not changed by gospel.

What is the best way to "raise" young children....??

Meaning.....what is the best method to ensure that the children are getting attention and freedom from neglect in a "day care" type of world?  Even a SMART woman in a GOOD HOME environment would need to consider these things if SHE wants to be a "good mother."  (I'm not saying perfect....meaning the children always have straight teeth and polished boots....but just good)  In reality.....a "good worker" is ALSO a "good mother"....trying to be a physician without experience is folly.

Answer:

Simply encourage mothers of YOUNG CHILDREN to stay with their children as much as possible until the youngest child is 4 years old.

Do NOT tell a "working woman" that she should use the "daycare system" to succeed in her career.  No, that is probably THE worst advice.....because practically all her $$$$ and emotional strength is given to the day-care and NOT to actual things that a young child needs.

For instance, for me, before my middle child was born, I worked off and on in odd jobs.  I made part-time employment, but I ALWAYS had to find a babysitter.  The results, were not the best of the best, because issues OFTEN arise in tension between "values" of the babysitter and mother.........

Each family situation WILL be different.  I promise.

****

Follow this plan and life will be LESS hectic for your home and for your husband in various ways especially if both of you are committed to the family and marriage.  (Most of this is for economic purposes...so it may not be necessary for a more financially sufficient family, but should be considered.)

1. Before the youngest is 4 years old, be a stay at home mom and homemaker.  Do not hire a nanny.  Babysitters ALWAYS end up robbing the child's heart.  NEVER consider even trying a part-time employment where you must make "the boss" happy.  No, you want your children to be happy, content and obedient to you (meaning they want to pick up their toys with a smile on their face....no complaining).  Even in cases where poverty could lead to homelessness, consider moving in with relatives if possible.  If you need a "food card" to get by as your husband is "unemployed" or "messed up" or something, then that is what you need.  Garden (containers work too) and grow own food when possible.  Pantry for extra needed grocery items.  Buy bulk foods.  Simplify.  (If needed, pick up a "pro-spanking" book....but don't over emphasize this issue....as general exposure to TRUTH and contemplating how to do what is right is more valuable... like montessori stuff, but with biblical theme.)

2. When the OLDEST is AT LEAST 10 years old(and preferably youngest older than 4) you may consider outside employment.  (Intellectually gifted could return to their chosen career).  Even online-employment that takes  up time and energy.  Start out in small amounts where the oldest can try a little taste of baby sitting.  If you have more than 5 children....with 2 children, 2 years old and younger, the oldest should be at least 11 years old.  Avoid working more than 10 hours a week for about a year until you know what your home can handle.

3. When the OLDEST has a handle on babysitting and shows maturity (it would be nice if the oldest can do his school-work well too), you may start thinking about 20 hours a week working.  Try to find hours extremely early in the morning before the children wake up.  (like working at a restaurant, starting up a small "breakfast business," working at a nursing home, cleaning homes etc.)

4.  NEVER consider working more than 20 hours a week especially with children under age 16 and you don't "run your own business."  WHY?  Because you WANT your child to know "the bible" and other facts about how they behave in the home, in the community and among family.  Without proper respect towards God and Man.....the child will wander into strange ideas.....I promise (the media, even local media, keep things according to their ways...not God's ways).  The internet and "strange books" are out there seeking to devour the children.....with political or other types of manipulations.  In some cases, severe dangers (politically motivated demoralizing indoctrination ideas in certain schools)  Even some way-ward or disrespectful family members can try to encourage the children to go .... "the wrong way."  Some more dangerous than others.  Each situation is different.  Even if a mother works in a school system "part-time"....(which even home-school mothers do this), someone needs to be there to encourage the correct directions in life away from typical school hours.

5. If you "run your own business,"  you could possibly work more than 20 hours a week.  If you are in severe poverty, where your housing is going to go, and extended family simply cannot deal with your "children" in their home, you could pick up more hours as needed......but I wouldn't recommend it if you have biblical faith.  Let the "farm go" .....  Let the "family heirloom house" go.....

6. I'm not going to give the specifics of the "social activities" a parent wants their children to participate within because each "50 mile radius" is different, but ensure that they get and give enough attention to "elders" in their life.  Grandparents, aunts, uncles, great aunts, great uncles and so forth.  The more wisdom they can gain from the extra special people, the better.  These people are not just "flies" which need to be swatted....they are there to bring the light of truth into your children's lives.  Change in the heart occurs when they realize humanity didn't just arise without family life.  In some cases, a family member went through something tragic in history, from which they could learn (wars, famines, escape from xyz, health etc etc).

7. For education, think about the MAJOR LIFE NEED education from about 5th grade to 8th grade level (11-14 years).  Everything a child learns "after 5th grade,"  could be learned freely as someone encourages him or her to "pick up a book."  Life-skills are MORE likely to be needed after the 8th grade, though a general EXPOSURE to good vs. evil of life is needed until age 20ish.  Faith values are important in that regard......to guard the heart.  (Public education may be needed for some children between age 11-14....so don't assume EVERY FAMILY can possibly pick up a book and start contemplating how to overcome their own insecurities.)  If a public-education is used, ensure that it is not "the only" source of education, especially under the age of 10.  Pull the children out of school for a semester and visit a few extra museums etc.  Public schools are a "daycare system" in disguise.....(good and bad systems exist just like good and bad daycare)

8. The same is true for getting a "degree" or "post-secondary education" (GED for some people) while caring for your children.  Before the youngest is the age of 4, ONLY go through classes that allow you to take the classes "on-line" or away from "the campus," so that your pattern of interaction with your child is not interrupted.....(don't even CONVINCE me that the nursing degree is more important than your 2 year old child.....GIVE ME A BREAK....I know what it means to become a well trained physician....wisdom with interaction with your child will be more valuable than a medical textbook.).  Then as the OLDEST child is above age 10 and youngest is over the age of 4....think about SLOWLY getting into classes that are "on-campus."  All the time it takes to study/go to class etc. should NEVER be more than 10 hours for certain age group of child and never over 20 hours for the typical teenage year child.

So that is a basic summary.

PLEASE DO consider these things.

If there is a public library in town, then your children can find entertainment and there is a way to educate.  If there is a "public park" in town, then your children can learn how to build a fort.....on a nice day....

Protecting businesses from microagressive activists protects economy/culture/society....

Benefits for microactivists in a business is "bad business."  To protect your business, have a plan to protect yourself from the far-left (and even far-right) issues at hand.  Feel free to use the wording in this statement to protect yourself from their stab-wounds before they occur......economically that is.

***********
We kindly ask that people who are microagression activists not use our services or do things to enhance economic growth for this business.  Often what happens in certain situations is that a person who is truly a victim of something, is not given the benefits they deserve and money or legal status becomes the god, thus true people in need, loose the benefits offered by this business.  Creator and redeemer WANTS all people to thrive and have abundance in this life, not just a selective group.

**

Examples thereof:

If you believe that a woman can be someone who has the ability to impregnante naturally, or you believe a man has the ability to give birth to children you are probably in favor of microagressive activism.  If you believe a man can do feminine things or a woman can do masculine things and do not deserve to be mocked, then you are probably not in favor of microagressive activism.

If you believe a person of color could never be anti-semitic or a headscarf on a woman means that she is ok in her behavior just for wearing a headscarf you are probably in favor of microagressive activism.  If you believe that a white man that is only .001 % Native American shouldn't qualify for Native American benefits or a white supremacist could possibly have minority heritage and you believe that the hatred and selfishness needs to stop, you are probably not in favor of microagressive activism.

So on and so forth.

**
Anyone may freely shop at this store.  However, like stated before, microagressive activism doesn't benefit the true victims and people who would like to use our services.  We ask that such individuals who favor generally unnatural, untruthful beliefs or definitions, not use our services to grow this business or do things to economically enhance this store.

Like a place of employment we are basically equal opportunity, so long as it not infringing upon or falsely accusing those of a different belief system, life style, condition or structure.  We hold the rights not to allow you to use our services if we feel your service to this business may infringe upon others who also need equal opportunity.  This includes issues of sexuality, marriage or family choice and issues where we feel it may put someone in a bondage, devaluing of natural person hood or burden.  We do not wish to ever discriminate based on age, race, DNA heritage/culture values, family values, family relationships, creed, philosophical beliefs, personal inherited traits, gender, relationship choice, victim of abuse, (income, vehicle or housing) status, employment status or choice, former prison status, former (bondage, belief or burden), political affiliation, marriage condition, disability, military service, refugee status or any other conditions related thereof.  All people are free to use our services in a neutral way and inoffensive way, so long as it is not a condition of microaggression and infringe upon the rights of others who may use this business as a service or visit our store.

Thank you for your consideration,

N####me

Signature that you read and understand this statement.

________________________________________

After signing this document you may not sue or press legal charges for any style of micro-aggressive belief if something in this business did not go as you would like.  Pressing any sort of legal charges, means that you believe it is ok to create a false system that says victims deserve what they deserve for being who they are, naturally speaking.  False accusation and criminal complaints in a -defamation of character- sort of way, are considered merciless and ruthless towards those to whom an individual(s) have done no wrong.  Person(s) who press such charges are not people of wisdom and strength in character.  Therefore, we physically cannot and will not pursue business activities with such individuals.

***
Further definitions:

Benjamin Franklin warned about this in his Emblematic Representations, published in 1774. He wrote: 

History affords us many instances of the ruin of states, by the prosecution of measures ill suited to the temper and genius of their people. The ordaining of laws in favor of one part of the nation, to the prejudice and oppression of another, is certainly the most erroneous and mistaken policy. An equal dispensation of protection, rights, privileges, and advantages, is what every part is entitled to, and ought to enjoy… These measures never fail to create great and violent jealousies and animosities between the people favored and the people oppressed; whence a total separation of affections, interests, political obligations, and all manner of connections, by which the whole state is weakened.

Definitions for Biblical Accountability

Definitions (For social, emotional and spiritual protection according to scripture and for this/any group).  These definitions do NOT change with time since Christ on the cross and changes in technology.  Use of a KJV bible wording and story line applies to these definitions (references not always given in these definitions).  Hebrew language and conditions of nature in Israel/ among people should also work with these definitions:

"age of accountability" - Age when a child is counted as a man/woman among an assembly. About age 12/13 Bat/Bar Mitzvah if a person participates.  Minion is ten men and creates a synagogue.  A male child becomes a "man" when he is counted in the minion.  12 disciples all were men and were not in the child stage.

"flower of her age" - Age where menstrual cycle begins.  Conception of children is possible.  Mary the mother of Jesus was a virgin and unmarried.  She reached the "flower of her age."  More than likely between "age of accountability" and "age of strength"

"age of strength" - About the age 20 for a man or woman.  Certain rules were given to men where they are physically numbered in Israel.  Males of 20 years old are able to go to war. Men who went to war were to apply himself to "take a beautiful woman" in an appropriate manner.  (war-time and online interactions distract young men to this day)


"age of mental stability" - Levites were counted.  Age where a physical person reaches mental capacity. (Most people attain all PhD requirements by age of 25)


"age of spiritual fullness" - age when a man could do the full work of the burden  in the tabernacle of the congregation.  About age 30.  Jesus achieved age of spiritual fullness, but couldn't achieve full "age of service" because of the burden of sin he took up the cross.

"age of service" - age when a man can do full work of the burden in the tabernacle of the congregation. Between the age of 30-50 years.

"elder" - man who is older than Jesus was when he gave his life on the cross.  Preferably he has achieved a full "age of service".  Often he is at least 40 years of age or older.  This is a man who has wisdom.  Leaders in a congregation should be at "age of service" or "elder" stage of life and above.

"child" - human being that was born from a woman and exists(ed) on earth under 12 years of age.  A child may be a "man child" or a "maid child" at birth.  "Man child" may be circumcised.  "Maid child" are not circumcised, but the mother of the "maid child" needs extra days of purification.

"man" - Not a child. Human being that is not capable of carrying a child in the womb at any time in life, based upon gender given at birth or conception.  Could have the ability to impregnate a woman.

"woman" - Not a child. Human being that goes through monthly cycles in the "flower of her age." Based upon gender given at birth or conception.  Could have the ability to bear a child in her womb.

"masculine traits" - Of and pertaining to having masculine characteristics.  Often most likely to be in positions of leadership, priestly or intellectually gifted positions.  Ownership and territorial claims are most likely to be found.  Protection of vulnerable individuals.  Establishment of proper means of Justice (Jesus showed the way).  Women have taken on "masculine traits" in the bible when men failed to do so.

"feminine traits" - Of and pertaining to having feminine characteristics.  Often most likely to be in positions of the home, compassion, service or nurturing positions.  Giving and taking care of needs to keep life alive and afloat are to be found.  Surrendering to ways and conditions of tribe and nature. Giving up of one's self (Jesus gave his life for all).  Men have taken on "feminine traits" in the bible when women were not physically capable of doing so.

"adulterous man/woman" - Individual who practices sexuality outside of accountability to vulnerable people or confines of a marriage.  The person often doesn't see marriage as honorable.  A man or a woman is accountable for acts of fornication.  Eli's children is an example.  (Modern conditions - Teenage/young-adult persons are accountable for these acts.  Online interactions are accountable for these acts. Open marriage is accountable for these acts.)

"brotherly love" - Concerns with strength of those with the same gender.  Person may be related, non-related, disabled, same or different conditions in life.  Concern and care for those who are men or male children and practice masculine things, by those who are female or male.

"sisterly love" - Concerns with strength of those with the same gender.  Person may be related, non-related, disabled, same or different conditions in life.  Concern and care for those who are female and practice feminine things, by those who are male or female.

"incest" - Persons defined in the Law as having sexual relationships with each other when they are closely related or in close domestic conditions.

"cousin marriage" - the founding fathers of Israel practiced cousin marriage.  Laban was Jacob's uncle while Leah and Rachel were Jacob's first cousin.  People in some areas of the Levant practice cousin marriage to this day due to culture practices.  Cousin marriage commonly, but not always, presents biological problems in conception of children by doubling the chances that a child conceived will have deformities.  Risks for biological problems are reduced significantly when marriage takes place past 5th cousin range.

"biologically sound marriage" - A marriage where risks of conceiving a child in a challenging way or deformed way are not as high.  Cousin marriage, alcoholic/drug related, previous biological issues would not occur in this marriage.  Law-less marriages are not usually biologically sound.  John the Baptist confronted a divorce and remarriage.  Good health and social life is encouraged in this marriage.

"close knit community" - People may come from similar backgrounds and beliefs.  People in the community may have similar heritage but not always.  People often interact face to face (not only online) and are not fearful of language, belief or culture differences.

"age gap marriage" - marriage in which a man or woman has significant age difference.  Typically one achieved "age of accountability" and became a man or woman well before the other spouse.  The man or woman could be significantly older.  A person in the marriage who has not achieved the "age of strength" could be a victim unless appropriate standards of accountability in the older spouse are in place. (ie. a 28 year old man who wants to marry a 16 year old needs to prove he is accountable to the marriage and not just interested in folly)

"marriage" - a marriage by biblical standards needs to have one man and one woman for it to be a marriage that is lawfully sound.  This is referenced as a bride and a bridegroom in various verses in the bible.  Marriage is to be honored.  This means that some people marry people who are "non-believers" or have issues from time to time because they didn't come to full-faith before marriage.  The holiness of Christ is to take priority to the marriage itself in the cases where a person married an unsaved or wicked person.

"divorce and remarriage" - Finding a new spouse in the case where the "first love" didn't seem to work out very well.  Christian teachings differ on this issue.  Some say if the first spouse was extremely abusive or the first love was found "under age of strength or mental stability" then it is OK to remarry after a divorce and it would not be wrong.  Some Christians teach that a person who is in a state of remarriage and the first spouse is still alive should return to the "first love" if at all possible.  Repenting of adultery is a necessity when working with those who commit to marriage in cases of infidelity promotion and they claim Christian/biblical teachings.

"no kissing before ceremony" - a person who commits to only kiss or touch their spouse when they reach the marriage alter.  They usually have "chemistry", they may side hug and they may hold hands a little bit before the ceremony.  In Jewish culture and traditions, this means that a ceremony takes place and then the couple kiss "behind a curtain."  The couple may have had experience before with another person sexually in Jewish culture, but they repent of those practices before time of marriage and commit to their spouse.  Christian practices often involve purity teachings and a short betrothal that encourages marriage within 3 to 6 months after "God Signs" and engagement.

"covenant" - supernatural promise established by higher power.  Impossible to reverse after it is established.

"marriage certificate" - a piece of paper that says that a couple are married.  In the case where worldly governments who are not governed by biblical principles rule, they may adjust standards to suit their own understanding of how to live in the state in a way that it feels is best.  Ungodly, worldly, wicked people get married just as easily and use marriage certificates like anyone else.  Godly couples may choose to use state created certificates or not.

"marriage ceremony" - A visible and verbal recognition of a love commitment between two people.  Ceremony can be mellow or it can be driven by lots of party and dancing.  Jesus turned water into wine at a marriage ceremony and was committed to making sure the guests enjoyed the ceremony.  Godly marriage ceremony are based upon biblical standards.  Ungodly marriage ceremony are based upon non-biblical standards and mocking such conditions.  Ungodly governments forbid marriage between certain individuals in certain ways and especially forbid godly/biblical based marriages.

"unmarried person" - an individual who did not have a marriage ceremony. an individual who once had a marriage ceremony but the person to whom they were committed left the marriage, divorced or died. The unmarried person may be content in their condition or they may not.  They may have had a previous relationship or they may not.  Paul says it is better to remain in a state of being unmarried in the wicked world.  Unmarried people are more capable of pleasing the Lord, if they are truly born again believers and students of the word.

"time life begins" - time life begins is in the womb when a conception has taken place.  Full DNA code is given at conception.  Jesus received all ancestry at conception as he was of the house of David.  Women who are aware of sin and seek to fulfill God's ways will "choose life" for all conceptions in the womb.  Men who are aware of sin and seek to fulfill God's ways will "choose life" by avoiding relationship with a woman who purposefully believes in stopping life in the womb for any reason.  People who practice sexual impurity and promote it, often try to "redefine" the time life begins.

"untimely birth" - conception that did not go according to a natural 9 month pregnancy (or age of survivability at a little past 20 weeks since conception).  Woman did not attempt to stop the pregnancy in any way.  No herbal means were used to slow the pregnancy. (Herbal remedies have been here since the time of creation).  Sometimes herbal remedies are used to aide women in distressing pregnancy situations.

"one-week old / following birth" - coordinating with life in a way that sustains the life of a man child or a maid child.  A suckling child that survives past one week of age, is a child that could make it into adulthood.  It is not considered murder if a parent cannot sustain the life of the child who doesn't survive life outside the womb under one week of age if given financial or health circumstances are not available.  Medically speaking these children could either be still-born or a case of SIDS occurred.  A child that breathes and has a heart beat needs equal opportunity to "choose life."  No vaccines are needed for the under one week old child as this is medical propaganda as this takes away from the immune system strength given by creator.

"child like" - Having a cute demeanor that is funny, approachable, laughable, curious about things of this world.  Relaxed and trusting in the creator to sustain life.

"childish" - Having a foolish, folly driven, immature behavior or attitude about things of this world.  Failing to take responsibility for actions.  Many people who want to mis-inform or change definitions to suit their sin are childish, even if they are intellectually gifted and of full age.  Professional people who fully believe in their political or social standard can be childish.

"knowledge" - Awareness of the world around a person.  These things may be tested by "knowledge tests."  Often associated with IQ ratings and gifts in college level or skill. Knowledge itself doesn't mean a person is morally good or believes in redemption in an appropriate manner.  Social patterns may not be biblical based patterns of social interaction (including marriage and family choices).  Gaining knowledge is useful in overcoming evil, but a person doesn't need to or shouldn't want to be "puffed up" about things to follow Jesus.  Knowledge of scripture, its meaning and purpose is essential for faith.

"wisdom" - experience that teaches a man or woman to discern good from evil.  A person with wisdom may or may not have knowledge.  Wisdom is mainly based on experience, listening to other people who went through something or considering failures of humanity and what to do about those failures.  People in different cultures have different sorts of wisdom to retain tribal dignity.

"fool" -disengages from the reality and may claim that no man or woman raised him or her from childhood on up to adulthood.  There were other people around that sustained human life under proper moral conditions.  Disengages from conditions of nature that prove that men cannot create all things in the way men want to create things. Often associated with those who say there is no God. (ie. squirrels gather nuts in the fall and men didn't tell the squirrels how to do this.)

"wicked" - often found in people who are unsaved.  Anger is often found in such persons.  They may claim they believe in a higher deity,  JESUS/YESHUA or even make claim to a Yahweist movement, but the actions in the private life prove they do not CARE about others to whom they are accountable, to God's word, to community faith values or to general standards of living for eternity. Judas Iscariot was a wicked man.  (many times people in this condition are in a state of mental illnesses or addiction patterns.  They may even be engaged in terrorism and/or racist supremacy.  They are still in bondage.)

"temptation" - outside person or internal struggle with "choice" comes upon a person.  Judas was tempted and he gave into his wicked heart.  He sought to overpower good with evil.  Jesus was tempted in the wilderness.  He was not around anyone when he was tempted.  He fully overcame evil of this world with good.  (Modern Day: Online interactions are equally accountable to temptations.  Time and energy a person puts into different things applies to this life.  Time is valuable resource among people we value.)

"Yahweyist movement" - A way in which people believe that by saying the name "yahwey" they are fulfilling biblical doctrines and commands.  It is wrong to say JESUS in their movement, but it could be wrong to choose life or to choose marriage when a person is at age of accountability.  They do not apply the "born again" belief and may ask that people get baptized again in the name of "yeshua/Yahwey." They may ask people to be "judaized" without actual study of bible and Jewish culture. Note: This is not the same as Hebrew Roots and messianic movement as it holds more "Judaizing" practices and doesn't show that the people should be accountable for actions.  They may "put you out" of their assembly or practice "false accusation" if you don't apply their rules.

"Hebrew Roots Movement" - Applying early Christian teaching and practices in a Jewish culture sort of way.  People may say Yahwey or not in this movement.  People may pick up on Hebrew words and phrases in this movement.

"Messianic Movement" - Jewish people who believe in Old Testament and New Testament.  They retain many original Jewish culture practices that are neutral in application of the New Testament.    Non-Jewish people who believe in Old and New Testament.  They apply Baptist or Anabaptist teachings to Old Testament culture and traditions putting away pagan-style rituals and routines.  People in Messianic Movement should show good fruits of being born again and having changed heart.  God's laws are important part of Messianic belief.

"Creed based Christianity" - various statements by men that summarized the Christian faith into key elements of the faith by a "creed".  These creeds are neither positive or negative in the Christian faith, but many non-resistant born again faith groups do not necessarily apply these creeds because of their repetitive nature without heart change.  Apostle's creed, Nicene Creed, Chalcedonian Creed, Athenasian creed....all before protestant era.   Catechism and the statements within the catechisms (based on protestant denomination) are associated with the protestant era often encourage followers to study and confess these creeds.

"modesty" - an action of choice that begins in the heart.  Clothing can (and in some cases should) be associated with modesty, but it actually begins with desire to promote inward heart change instead of just outward appearances.

"Mercy" - Seeing that these definitions may need tweeks and adjustments from time to time and from situation to situation and choosing the HOLY SPIRIT (comforter) to lead and convict on these matters.  Choosing to adjust understanding according to, not against scripture based reasoning.  Pointing to THE CROSS and his redemption.
