<p class="chapter-para">It has been 12 years since the Institute of
Medicine (IOM) reported the alarming data on the cause and impact of
medical errors in the United States.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b1-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b1-0430041">1</a></sup>
Besides causing serious harm to patients, medical errors translate into
huge costs for the national economy. In 1999, Berwick and Leape
published that the estimated cost of medical errors in the United States
was between $17 billion-$29 billion a year.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b2-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b2-0430041">2</a></sup>
In 2006, Null and colleagues published an article indicating the
overall estimated annual economic cost of improper medical intervention
was much higher, approaching $282 billion.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b3-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b3-0430041">3</a></sup>
While many areas of health care are still struggling with the issue of
patient safety, laboratory diagnostics has always been a forerunner in
pursuing this issue. The concepts and practices of quality assessment
programs have long been routine in laboratory medicine, and error rates
in laboratory activities are far lower than those seen in overall
clinical health care.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b4-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b4-0430041">4</a></sup> This article briefly reviews laboratory quality assessment and looks at recent statistics concerning laboratory errors.</p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212708">Quality Standards</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">Laboratory medicine sets high quality standards.
Regulation of quality in the health care sector is based on
accreditation, certification, quality monitoring, patient’s rights,
standard operation processes, and standards of health care quality.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b5-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b5-0430041">5</a></sup>
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) regulates all
laboratory testing (except research) performed on humans in the United
States through the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA).
The Division of Laboratory Services, within the Survey and Certification
Group, under the Center for Medicaid and State Operations (CMSO), has
the responsibility for implementing the CLIA program. The objective of
the CLIA program is to ensure quality laboratory testing.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b6-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b6-0430041">6</a></sup></p><p class="chapter-para">In
order for a health care organization to participate in and receive
payment from Medicare or Medicaid programs, it must be certified as
complying with the Conditions of Participation (CoP), or standards, set
forth in federal regulations. This certification is based on a survey
conducted by a state agency on behalf of CMS. However, if a national
accrediting organization, such as The Joint Commission (TJC), formerly
known as the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care
Organizations, has and enforces standards meeting the federal CoP, CMS
may grant the accrediting organization “deeming” authority and “deem”
each accredited health care organization as meeting the Medicare and
Medicaid certification requirements. The health care organization is
then considered to have “deemed status” and is not subject to the
Medicare survey and certification process. Laboratories can also be
accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP) and the
Commission on Office Laboratory Accreditation (COLA), both of which also
have deemed status with CMS.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b7-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b7-0430041">7</a>,<span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b8-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b8-0430041">8</a>,<span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b9-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b9-0430041">9</a></sup></p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212711">Sources of Laboratory Error</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">Traditionally, laboratory practice can be
divided into 3 phases (pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical).
All 3 phases of the total testing process can be targeted individually
for improving quality, although it is well published that most errors
occur in the pre- and post-analytical phases (<span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-t1-0430041"></span><a class="link link-reveal link-table xref-fig" data-open="t1-0430041">Table 1</a>).<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b10-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b10-0430041">10</a></sup>
In the field of laboratory medicine, Lippi and colleagues published
that the total testing process error rate ranges widely from 0.1% to
3.0%.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b11-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b11-0430041">11</a></sup> In studies done by Plebani and Carraro, laboratory error rates declined over 10 years from 0.47% in 1977 to 0.33% in 2007.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b12-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b12-0430041">12</a>,<span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b13-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b13-0430041">13</a></sup>
A similar declining trend has been seen specifically in analytical
errors. The analytical variability is now frequently less than 1/20th of
what it was 40 years ago.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b14-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b14-0430041">14</a></sup> Analytical mistakes now count for <10% of all mistakes.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b12-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b12-0430041">12</a></sup></p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212713">Analytical Error</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">Focusing first on the analytical phase of
laboratory testing, the analytical phase begins when the patient
specimen is prepared in the laboratory for testing, and it ends when the
test result is interpreted and verified by the technologist in the
laboratory. Not processing a specimen properly prior to analysis or
substances interfering with assay performance can affect test results in
the analytical phase. Establishing and verifying test method
performance specifications as to test accuracy, precision, sensitivity,
specificity, and linearity are other areas where errors can occur in the
analytical phase of laboratory testing.</p><p class="chapter-para">The
laboratory has spent decades improving analytical quality by
establishing internal quality controls (IQC) and external quality
assessment (EQA). The role of EQA and proficiency testing (PT) is to
provide reliable information allowing laboratories to assess and monitor
the quality status of internal procedures and processes, the
suitability of the diagnostic systems, the accountability and competence
of the staff, along with the definition of measurement uncertainty in
laboratory results. The responsibility of laboratory professionals is to
appropriately analyze EQA/PT samples and reports, detect trends or bias
that may not be apparent in single results, investigate root causes
producing unacceptable performances, apply and monitor opportune actions
for removing the underlying cause(s), verify the effectiveness, and,
above all, determine whether the problem affected clinical decision
making.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b15-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b15-0430041">15</a></sup></p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212716">Pre-analytical Error</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">The pre-analytical phase of the total laboratory
testing process is where the majority of laboratory errors occur.
Pre-analytical errors can occur at the time of patient assessment, test
order entry, request completion, patient identification, specimen
collection, specimen transport, or specimen receipt in the laboratory. A
report by Bonini and colleagues found that pre-analytical errors
predominated in the laboratory, ranging from 31.6% to 75%.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b16-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b16-0430041">16</a></sup>
In 2008 to 2009, Chawla and colleagues performed a 1-year study in the
clinical chemistry laboratory on the frequency of pre-analytical errors
observed in both inpatients and outpatients. For the inpatients, a
pre-analytical error rate of 1.9% was reported. The variable receiving
the highest frequency rating was specimen hemolysis at 1.10%. For the
outpatients, the error rate was 1.2%, and the variable with the highest
frequency rating was insufficient volume for testing.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b17-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b17-0430041">17</a></sup>
Some of the other common sources of pre-analytical error are the
following: ordering tests on the wrong patient, ordering the wrong test,
misidentifying the patient, choosing the inappropriate collection
container, or labeling containers improperly.</p><p class="chapter-para">A comprehensive plan to prevent pre-analytical errors has 5 interrelated steps: </p><ol class="number"><li><p class="chapter-para">Developing clear written procedures.</p></li><li><p class="chapter-para">Enhancing health care professional training.</p></li><li><p class="chapter-para">Automating functions, both for support operations and for executive operations.</p></li><li><p class="chapter-para">Monitoring quality indicators.</p></li><li><p class="chapter-para">Improving communication among health care professionals and fostering interdepartmental cooperation.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b18-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b18-0430041">18</a>,<span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b19-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b19-0430041">19</a>,<span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b20-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b20-0430041">20</a></sup></p></li></ol>

must clearly explain how to identify a patient, collect and label a
specimen, and subsequently transport the specimen and prepare it for
analysis. Those individuals performing the pre-analytical procedures
must understand not only what the procedures are but why they are
important to follow. They need to know not only what happens if the
correct steps are not followed, but also what errors can occur and what
effect they can have on the sample and ultimately the patient. There
must be ongoing training for these employees and competencies must be
assessed annually.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b21-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b21-0430041">21</a></sup></p><p class="chapter-para">Modern
robotic technologies and information systems can also help reduce
pre-analytical errors. Computerized order entry simplifies test ordering
and eliminates a second person from transcribing the orders. Automated
phlebotomy tray preparation provides a complete set of labeled blood
tubes and labels for hand labeling in a single tray for each patient.
Pre-analytical robotic workstations automate some of the steps and
reduce the number of manual steps involving more people. Barcodes also
simplify specimen routing and tracking.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b21-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b21-0430041">21</a></sup></p><p class="chapter-para">Recent
advances in laboratory technology have made available new and more
reliable means for the automated detection of the serum indices,
including the hemolysis index. Visual detection of hemolysis must be
abandoned due to low sensitivity and low reproducibility. Laboratory
personnel must ask for new samples when hemolysis is detected. If a new
sample cannot be obtained, it is the responsibility of the laboratory
specialist to communicate the problem to the clinician. The data
obtained from the serum indices can be used to monitor the quality of
the collection process.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b22-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b22-0430041">22</a></sup></p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212724">Post-analytical Error</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">In the post-analytical phase of the testing
process, results are released to the clinician, and s/he interprets them
and makes diagnostic and therapeutic decisions accordingly. Such things
as inappropriate use of laboratory test results, critical result
reporting, and transmission of correct results are areas of potential
error in the post-analytical phase of the total laboratory testing
process.</p><p class="chapter-para">In an article by Plebani and Piva,
the authors give a comprehensive overview on the ongoing efforts for
improving actual consensus on the definition and notification of
laboratory critical values, and for evaluating their contribution to
improve clinical outcomes and patient safety. The article also provides
some highlights on a valuable experience of automated notification,
which is a reliable tool for improving the timeliness of communication
and avoiding potential errors for which accreditation programs require
read-back of the results.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b23-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b23-0430041">23</a></sup></p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212727">Monitoring Errors</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">The success of any efforts made to reduce errors
must be monitored in order to assess the efficacy of the measures
taken. Quality indicators must be used for assessment. In the testing
process areas involving non-laboratory personnel, interdepartmental
communication and cooperation are crucial to avoid errors. Therefore the
entire health care system must be involved in improving the total
testing process. There must be adequate and effective training of
personnel throughout the institution to be competent in following
processes and procedures.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b21-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b21-0430041">21</a></sup></p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212729">Incident Reporting in Laboratory Diagnostics</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">While major efforts have been made to monitor
the pre-analytical phase and provide reliable solutions, it is
surprising that concrete formal programs of incident reporting have not
been so pervasive in laboratory diagnostics.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b24-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b24-0430041">24</a></sup>
The major focus in health care is placed on incident reporting for
several medical conditions with lesser effort devoted to translating
this noteworthy practice into laboratory diagnostics. If, in fact,
laboratory errors are being underreported, then current statistics
reveal only a small portion of the medical errors actually taking place.
There is an urgent need to establish a reliable policy of error
recording, possibly through informatics aids,<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b25-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b25-0430041">25</a></sup>
and settle universally agreed “laboratory sentinel events” throughout
the total testing process, which would allow gaining important
information about serious incidents and holding both providers and
stakeholders accountable for patient safety. Some of these sentinel
events have already been identified, including inappropriate test
requests and patient misidentification (pre-analytical phase), use of
wrong assays, severe analytical errors, tests performed on unsuitable
samples, release of lab results in spite of poor quality controls
(analytical phase), and failure to alert critical values and wrong
report destination (post-analytical phase).<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b26-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b26-0430041">26</a>,<span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b27-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b27-0430041">27</a></sup>
The Drafting Group of WHO’s International Classification for Patient
Safety (ICPS) has also developed a conceptual framework that might also
be suitable for diagnostics errors.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b28-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b28-0430041">28</a></sup></p><p class="chapter-para">Development
and widespread implementation of a Total Quality Management (TQM)
system is the most effective strategy to minimize uncertainty in
laboratory diagnostics. Pragmatically, this can be achieved using 3
complementary actions: preventing adverse events (error prevention),
making them visible (error detection), and mitigating their adverse
consequences when they occur (error management).<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b24-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b24-0430041">24</a></sup></p><p class="chapter-para">Other
methodologies can also be used to prevent errors. Failure Mode and
Effect Analysis (FMEA) has been a broadly cited reliable approach to
risk management. It is a systematic process for identifying potential
process failures before they occur, with the aim to eliminate them or
minimize the relative risk. The U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs
National Center for Patient Safety developed a simplified version of
FMEA to apply to health care, called Healthcare FMEA (HFMEA).<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b29-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b29-0430041">29</a></sup>
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is an additional valuable aid, since it is
based on a retrospective analytical approach. A RCA focuses on
identifying the latent conditions underlying variation in medical
performance and, if applicable, developing recommendations for
improvements to decrease the likelihood of a similar incident in the
future.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b11-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b11-0430041">11</a></sup></p> <h2 class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" id="117212733">Conclusion</h2>
<p class="chapter-para">Patient safety emphasizes the reporting,
analysis, and prevention of medical errors that often lead to adverse
events. Besides carrying serious harms to patient health, medical errors
translate into a huge amount of money wiped out of the national and
international economy. Significant progress has been made since the
release of “To Err is Human.” Basically what has changed is the
willingness to recognize the challenge and not argue about the numbers,
but appreciate care must be safe always and everywhere for each patient.
This has led to remarkable changes in the culture of health care
organizations, so medical errors can no longer be seen as inevitable,
but as something that can be actively streamlined and prevented.<sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-b24-0430041"></span><a class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr" data-open="b24-0430041">24</a></sup></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><iframe allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/icon/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fcg-brady&color=orange_white&size=32" style="width: 32px; height: 32px;"></iframe></div>Elhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05479147352816145505noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8800150402898970017.post-7231139562347621542021-03-26T13:09:00.006-07:002021-03-26T13:09:32.892-07:00God Is Evil.

God is pure evil so of course he created COVID-19. </p><p>The country that spends the most time sucking God's cock is the US and the US has the most COVID-19 deaths and cases. God knows that the trash in the US and particularly in the Bible Belt will suck his dick extra hard when they get sick with COVID-19. God causes catastrophes because when he does people pay more attention to him. God has an insatiable ego. This is why he makes people sick and every so often he cures someone who is in curable so that his dick sucking sycophants will brag him up. </p><p>Compared to other countries, the US has 25% of the COVID-19 cases and deaths. Of all the countries, the US is the one of most Christian and Christian countries have been hit the hardest. This is what happens when you worship a vile god who would kill every living thing on earth and later kill his own son. </p><p>To prove my point here's some data. </p><p>The US population is 332,262,090. The US has 29,940,131 COVID-19 cases and 516,403 deaths.</p><p>India's population is 1,138,790, 063. India has 11,046,432 cases and 156,742 COVID-19 deaths.</p><p>Japan's population is 126,224,164. Japan has 427,467 COVID-19 cases and 7,584 deaths.</p><p>China's population is 1,439,232,774. China has 89,864 cases and 4,636 COVID-19 deaths. </p><p>If you look at all the data you will see that the more Christian a country is the more COVID-19 cases and deaths there are. God isn't wasting his time on countries that have few dick sucking Christians. </p><p>Related:</p><div class="result results_links_deep highlight_d result--url-above-snippet" data-domain="www.usatoday.com" data-hostname="www.usatoday.com" data-nir="1" id="r1-0"><div class="result__body links_main links_deep"><h2 class="result__title"><a class="result__a" href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/04/02/coronavirus-god-christain-jewish-muslim-leaders-saying-deadly-plague/5101639002/" rel="noopener">Coronavirus and <b>God</b>: What faith leaders say about pandemic</a></h2><div class="result__extras js-result-extras"><div class="result__extras__url"><span class="result__icon "><a class="js-result-extras-site_search" href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=God%20created%20COVID+site:www.usatoday.com&t=ffsb" title="Search domain www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/04/02/coronavirus-god-christain-jewish-muslim-leaders-saying-deadly-plague/5101639002/"><img class="result__icon__img js-lazyload-icons" data-src="//external-content.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.usatoday.com.ico" height="16" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.usatoday.com.ico" title="Search domain www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/04/02/coronavirus-god-christain-jewish-muslim-leaders-saying-deadly-plague/5101639002/" width="16" /></a></span><a class="result__url js-result-extras-url" href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/04/02/coronavirus-god-christain-jewish-muslim-leaders-saying-deadly-plague/5101639002/" rel="noopener"><span class="result__url__domain">https://www.usatoday.com</span><span class="result__url__full">/story/news/nation/2020/04/02/coronavirus-god-christain-jewish-muslim-leaders-saying-deadly-plague/5101639002/</span></a></div></div><div class="result__snippet js-result-snippet"><span class="result__date">Apr 2, 2020</span>As church services go viral and newsletters promising of <b>God's</b> goodness throughout this tragedy populate inboxes, questions about whether <b>God</b> <b>created</b> coronavirus - or if it's <b>God's</b> will for the...</div></div></div><div class="result results_links_deep highlight_d result--url-above-snippet" data-domain="www.washingtonexaminer.com" data-hostname="www.washingtonexaminer.com" data-nir="1" id="r1-1"><div class="result__body links_main links_deep"><h2 class="result__title"><a class="result__a" href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/why-did-god-let-coronavirus-happen" rel="noopener">Why did <b>God</b> let coronavirus happen? - Washington Examiner</a></h2><div class="result__extras js-result-extras"><div class="result__extras__url"><span class="result__icon "><a class="js-result-extras-site_search" href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=God%20created%20COVID+site:www.washingtonexaminer.com&t=ffsb" title="Search domain www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/why-did-god-let-coronavirus-happen"><img class="result__icon__img js-lazyload-icons" data-src="//external-content.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.washingtonexaminer.com.ico" height="16" src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/ip3/www.washingtonexaminer.com.ico" title="Search domain www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/why-did-god-let-coronavirus-happen" width="16" /></a></span><a class="result__url js-result-extras-url" href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/why-did-god-let-coronavirus-happen" rel="noopener"><span class="result__url__domain">https://www.washingtonexaminer.com</span><span class="result__url__full">/opinion/why-did-god-let-coronavirus-happen</span></a></div></div><div class="result__snippet js-result-snippet">The

states, "You shall not bow down to them [other gods] or serve them, for
I the LORD your God am a jealous God." How are we to understand God's
jealousy when the Bible also says that jealousy is a sin (<a class="rtBibleRef" data-purpose="bible-reference" data-reference="Gal 5.20" data-version="esv" href="https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Gal%205.20" target="_blank">Galatians 5:20</a>)? Isn't this a contradiction? No. While the Bible is full of contradictions, God is jealous. God is evil. When you hear the expression, "he or she has a good a God complex" I desscribe an insecure had rotten person in most cases. God is a fuck up. He claims to be all knowing and all powerful but he didn't know that Lucifer and one third of the angels were fed up with he BS and would rebel against him. Perhaps Lucifer saw that God had some very horrible plans for humanity and tried to stop him. The other angels were a bunch of boot lickers. God, not being all powerful, could not destroy the brave angels. Knowing what a whiney little bitch God is and having compassion, perhaps Lucifer was trying to rescue humanity from God's psychotic behavior. Lucifer knew that it doesn't take much to rub God the wrong way<br /><br /> Is the key context? No! In <a class="rtBibleRef" data-purpose="bible-reference" data-reference="Exod 20" data-version="esv" href="https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Exod%2020" target="_blank">Exodus 20</a>,
God revealed the Ten Commandments to the people of Israel. He commanded
allegiance and worship to Him alone because he's a jaealous little bitch. He would not tolerate the worship
of other gods. Apparently God could not destroy those other gods. So much for his all powerful line of bullshit. God was
"jealous" in the sense that He expected full devotion and ass kissing, not merely a
partial, lukewarm commitment. Worship belongs to God, and He is right to
be "jealous" of it. In other words God wanted mankind to constantly lick his asshole. We all know people like that. Healthy moral indviduals don't require worship not do they want it. <br /><br />
The Catholic church included jealousy as one of the seven deadly sins to be avoided. In these
cases, jealousy refers to being resentful over something another person
has. It could be a material possession ("I am jealous of his Camaro"), a
physical attribute ("I am jealous of her waist size"), or a special
ability ("I am jealous of the way they can sing"). Such jealousy is
often associated with suspicion, envy, and rivalry, and it is always
sinful. We are called to be content in all circumstances. "I have
learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be
brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I
have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need"
(<a class="rtBibleRef" data-purpose="bible-reference" data-reference="Phil 4.11-12" data-version="esv" href="https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Phil%204.11-12" target="_blank">Philippians 4:11-12</a>). God's cruelty to us is related to his overall jealousy which is reated to his total malevolence. The mental health terms for people with God's disorders and his history of cruelty would include grandiose narcissism, sociopath, psychopathic, paranoia, borderline personality disorder etc.. <br /><br />
Joseph's brothers were sinfully jealous (or envious) of Joseph (<a class="rtBibleRef" data-purpose="bible-reference" data-reference="Gen 37.11" data-version="esv" href="https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Gen%2037.11" target="_blank">Genesis 37:11</a>).
They saw Joseph as a rival for the father's attention, and their sin of
jealously led to other sins. They sold their own brother into slavery
and lied to their father. Years later, these brothers felt guilt for
their shameful acts that resulted from jealousy. God, unlike Joseph's brothers, has no moral compass. God has no rules or boundaries. God is allowed to do whatever he wants with no consequences. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. God thinks that he is all powerful. Are you starting to see some parallels between God and Donald Trump. <br /><br /><br />
Yes, God is a jealous God. Why? Because he will not share his praise aka ego stroking
with another. Why? Because God has the personality of a bratty two year old child who won't share his toys with the other kids. "I am the LORD; that is my name; my glory I give to no
other, nor my praise to carved idols" (<a class="rtBibleRef" data-purpose="bible-reference" data-reference="Isa 42.8" data-version="esv" href="https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Isa%2042.8" target="_blank">Isaiah 42:8</a>). Like any other narcissist, sociopath and borderline.
God carefully maintains and protects what he childishly thinks is rightly his. God and his ass kissers see this as "divine" jealousy, and it is worlds apart from the type of human jealousy
that causes people to envy, suspect, and resent others. God's evil jealousy is at the core of what God truly is... Pure evil! God knows better. God simply doesn't care. <br /></span></p><p><span itemprop="articleBody">Jealousy among humans is often caused by a lack of maturity but in some cases humans they never grow up and end up being children in adult bodies. People like that are cruel, dangerous and law breaking. The have no regard for the rights or well being of others. That sounds a lot like God but even these sick individuals would at least try to mimic moral behavior because of the consequences of not doing so. God has faced no consequences for his misdeeds. Let's change that. </span></p><p><span itemprop="articleBody">Whether God is real entity, a fictional character or something else such as a dimensional being, God is evil. God's effect on others is real God gives people suffering. God delights in our suffering. That's why he made us mortal. <br /></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><iframe allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/icon/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fcg-brady&color=orange_white&size=32" style="width: 32px; height: 32px;"></iframe></div>Elhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05479147352816145505noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8800150402898970017.post-26095240602653952732021-02-13T16:58:00.004-08:002021-02-13T16:58:44.839-08:00God allows evil and God is Evil<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vO5Ss1nbi7M/maxresdefault.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="800" height="360" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vO5Ss1nbi7M/maxresdefault.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p class="Tags"><a href="http://www.humanreligions.info/tags/christianity.html">#christianity</a> <a href="http://www.humanreligions.info/tags/evil_god.html">#evil_god</a> <a href="http://www.humanreligions.info/tags/god.html">#god</a> <a href="http://www.humanreligions.info/tags/religion.html">#religion</a> <a href="http://www.humanreligions.info/tags/bible.html">#the_bible</a></p><div class="GCContent"><ol class="Menu"><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#OT_Evil">The Old Testament God is Evil</a><ol><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#GodCreatesEvil_FW">God Creates Evil Regardless of Human Free Will</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#1Chr21,2Sam24">Satan and God are Interchangeable</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#OU1757">Fear God</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#AaE_OS">Adam and Eve and Original Sin: The Immoral Schemes of God</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#OU1485">Violence and Murder Endorsed in the Old Testament</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#NT_OT">The New Testament Tells us that the Old Testament God is Evil</a></li></ol></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#NTG">The New Testament God is Also Evil: More Genocides and Divine Incitements of Murder</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#Families">God Destroys Families</a><ol><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#Obey">Rebellious and Stubborn Sons</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#NT">Jesus and the New Testament</a></li></ol></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#Jesus_Trick">Jesus and the Crucifixion - A Trick</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#OU0412">No Free Will in the New Testament</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#Confusion">Sowing Seeds of Confusion - Not the Antics of a Good God</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#OU0430">The Problem of Evil</a></li><li><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#Links">Links</a></li></ol><hr class="AfterTopMenu" /><h2 id="OT_Evil">1.

The Hebrew word here that is translated as "disaster" could also mean
"wickedness", "hurt", "affliction" or "adversity". God creates these
things directly. Any argument that asserts that <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/theodicy_freewill.html">evil is a result of Human free will</a> must first get over the fact that the Christian Bible states that <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/god.html">God</a> creates evil and disaster itself. Not only does this <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/god.html">God</a> <i>create</i> darkness and disaster, but it actively "<i>does</i>" them too. For example in <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/job.html#Chapter42">Job 42:11</a> <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/job.html" title="God and Satan conspire to destroy innocent and holy Job's life and bring him as much suffering as possible. Satan can only act with God's permission. An amoral and theologically confused story.">God is described as <i>doing</i> evil to Job as part of its test of Job even though Job is described as holy and blameless</a>.
In other words, the evil done by God on Job was not the result of Job's
free will. Also, his children and animals are all slaughtered too, as
collateral damage<sub><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_evilgod.html#BI_001">1</a></sub>. God doesn't merely create evil and suffering as possibilities, it actively chooses to do them itself.</p><p><a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/psalm_104.html">Psalm 104:27-30</a>
notes that God sometimes makes animals happy and sometimes "terrifies
them" as part of the daily rhythm of life as described in general by <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/psalm_104.html" title="God is light, and created the life cycle, and sometimes terrifies animals. The Earth can't move.">Psalm 104</a>, although the King James Version nicely tones this down to "troubles" them.</p><p>The
Book of Lamentations confirms that free will cannot stop evil, when
evil comes from God, nor can man stop goodness, when goodness comes from

various authors copied copies of the Hebrew Scriptures, changes
accumulated in the stories. Sometimes, the same story appears twice.
There are even two accounts of the Creation that contradict each other
in the details. One such doubled story shows us clearly that the Old
Testament God is evil, and Satan itself is not a separate being, but is
actually part of God, a face of God. There is one occasion when David
took a census of his men in order to count how many could fight in the
armies of Israel. <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/1_chronicles.html#Chapter21">1 Chronicles 21:2</a> and <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/2_samuel.html#Chapter24">2 Samuel 24:2</a> both contain a copy of the exact same text:</p><table border="1" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td width="50%"><p><span class="IQL">“</span>So
David said to Joab and the commanders of the troops, "Go and count the

had happened is that God had a rule: That David was not allowed to
'number' Israel. But, for some reason, David went ahead and did so. As a
result, God punished them all for breaking his rule. But, it is very
telling when we examine the preceding verse: Who inspired David to count
Israel's fighting men?</p> <table border="1" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" style="clear: both;"><tbody><tr><td width="50%"><p><span class="IQL">“</span>Satan rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census of Israel.<span class="IQR">”</span></p><p class="Author"><a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/1_chronicles.html#Chapter21">1 Chronicles 21:1</a></p></td><td width="50%"><p><span class="IQL">“</span>The anger of the <small>LORD</small> burned against Israel, and he incited David against them, saying, "Go and take a census of Israel and Judah."<span class="IQR">”</span></p><p class="Author"><a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/2_samuel.html#Chapter24">2 Samuel 24:1</a></p></td></tr></tbody></table> <p>In
one copy of the story, we are told Satan told David to do so. In the
other, it was God. How can this be? It is because in the Old Testament, <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/satan.html" title="Vexen Crabtree's Satanism website"><span class="Satan">Satan</span></a> and <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/god.html">God</a> are the same being. <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/satan.html" title="Vexen Crabtree's Satanism website"><span class="Satan">Satan</span></a> in the Old Testament is merely the face that God puts on when it is testing its people. "The anger of the Lord" <i><b>is</b></i> <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/satan.html" title="Vexen Crabtree's Satanism website"><span class="Satan">Satan</span></a>. Another example is <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/1_timothy.html#Chapter1">1 Timothy 1:20</a>, where God mentions "<i>Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme</i>".
Satan isn't a being that freely chose to reject God; it is a hidden
part of God, that God uses as a tool so it doesn't have to sully its own
name. It was common in old religions (<a href="http://www.humanreligions.info/hinduism.html">Hinduism</a>, Roman religions, etc) for gods to have multiple faces, each associated with different emotions.

In <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/lot_sodom_gomorrah.html" title="Homosexuality, Old Testament morality and some rather dubious teachings.">Genesis
chapters 18 and 19, Lot is rescued from destruction by God's actions
for his noble and commendable actions. What did he do? He tried to
protect 3 male guests who had arrived at his house, from a mob outside
who wanted to rape them. His method of protection was to send out his
two virgin daughters and tell the crowd they could do as they pleased
with them. In case we doubt God's judgement of Lot, Lot then goes and
has children by both of his daughters</a>. <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/abraham_sacrifices_isaac.html" title="God tells the father of the tribes of Israel to ritually kill his own son, and is only stopped by a last minute change of mind by God.">The
story of Abraham and Isaac in Genesis chapter 22 has Abraham obey the
voices in his head which tell him to murder his only son Isaac on an
altar as a sacrifice to God. Abraham complies, and is massively rewarded
by God (who uncharacteristically stops him at the last moment). Any
moral person would have sternly told Abraham that he <i>failed</i> God's test</a>.
These two stories tell us that obediance and male honour are valued far
ahead of the protection of the family; rape of young daughters and
child murder are both preferable to disobeying voices in your head, and
risking your male guests from being mobbed.</p><a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/deuteronomy.html#Chapter13">Deuteronomy 13:6-9</a>
says that if your relatives or friends try to get you to worship other
gods, firstly you must not give in to them, and secondly, you must kill
them. That's right - kill your relatives if they try to draw you away
from your religion, "without pity". <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/genesis.html#Chapter17">Genesis 17:10,12,14</a>
teaches that newborns are to be circumcized, and, those who are not are
to be cast away from their friends and family. There seems to be no way
to view such teachings in a moral way. The author(s) of the Bible
severely lacked moral compassion and a sense of justice. Even when
aiming at noble goals, such as respect for family life, the moral
teachings derived from this instinct go instantly awry in the Bible -
note that the punishment for cursing one's father or mother, and for
adultery, is death (<a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/exodus.html#Chapter21">Exodus 21:17</a>).<p>Throughout
the Old Testament, male children are promised by God as the ultimate
reward, women are often unable to bear children (but this fate never
happens to men). Throughout the Old and New, the unequal and barbaric
position of women in the family compared to men is infamously
misogynistic - there are too many related verses to repeat here.</p><h3 id="Obey">3.1. Rebellious and Stubborn Sons</h3><p>There are many morals in the Bible that offer <i>very poor</i> advice and which also manage to contradict other moral instructions. <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/colossians.html#Chapter3">Colossians 3:20</a> says "children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord" and this is backed up by <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/deuteronomy.html#Chapter21">Deuteronomy 21:18-21</a>
which says that stubborn and rebellious sons are to be stoned by the
community (and you might as well accuse them of being drunkards too,
because that'll make the elders more likely to comply with the stoning).
These messages are of course not actually aimed at children. Very few
would read such a sentence and decide to completely abandon childhood in
favour of becoming an automaton. And, imagine, if the parents told
their children to do immoral things, or instructed them in (god forbid!)
<b>the wrong religion</b>, then I am <i>sure</i> that this particular
verse would be the first to be overlooked. The Bible itself ignores this
"obey your parents" verse when it says to believe in God and abandon
your family (remember <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/matthew.html#Chapter10">Matt. 10:34-37</a>, <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/luke.html#Chapter12">Luke 12:51-53</a>, <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/luke.html#Chapter14">14:25</a> and <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/luke.html#Chapter18">18:29</a>).

It is a theological argument rather than an historical account. On Vexen Crabtree's Bane of Monotheism website.">mistranslations
of important Biblical verses have misinformed the masses on even
important points, such as whether Jesus' mother was a virgin or not</a>.
The Bible has caused endless confusion with the irregularities,
inconsistencies and ambiguities of its text. On top of that are the
mistranslations, cultural misunderstandings and outright subjectivist
attempts at exegesis by those who are genuinely and passionately trying
to understand the core text of their religion. It seems that not only
does the Bible describe a God who is a very poor communicator, but that
the Bible itself is communicated very poorly.</p><p>It cannot be the case, therefore, that people <i>need</i>
the Bible nor that people have to know the right things, or have the
right beliefs, in order to fulfil God's plan. (In-)famous playwright Tim
Rice once had this idea, too, and put it to verse...:</p><blockquote><p><span class="IQL">“</span></p><div style="padding-left: 2em;"><p>You'd have managed Peter better if you'd had it planned<br />Now why'd you choose such a backward time and such a strange land?<br />If you'd come today you could have reached a whole nation<br />Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication!<span class="IQR">”</span></p></div><p class="Author" style="padding-right: 200px;"><i>Jesus Christ Superstar</i> (1971)<br />Written by Tim Rice</p></blockquote><p>We
have seen that God's communication methods in the Bible are portrayed
in a highly unclear, indirect and obscure way (at best). Sometimes (such
as with Balaam) God seems to be an incompetent communicator. Is there
an underlying reason? The answer depends on your notion of God's
personality. You see, <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/god_pronouns.html">its</a> poor communication is only a problem if you happen to think that God <i>wants</i> us to know the truth and to believe the right things. What if God wants us to have <i>different</i> beliefs and religions at different times and in different places? Then, God's ambiguous whisperings make more sense.</p><p class="BoxIcons"><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/god_communication.html">God's Methods of Communication: Universal Truth Versus Hebrew and Arabic</a><a href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/tb.html"><img height="50" src="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/icons/christianity.gif" width="50" />Criticism of the Christian Bible</a><a href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/god.html" title="An evil god is more likely to exist than a good one and is a better symbol of reality">God Must Be Evil (If It Exists)</a></p><blockquote><p><span class="IQL">“</span>If
we knew the truth, our existential crises, mental angst and warring
world religions would have no grounds to vex. If god revealed itself to
everyone, in no unclear terms, there could be no disagreement. But god
does not do this. God remains hidden - and if god is the source of any
of our world religions, it seems that it is intentionally giving
conflicting messages. Saying one set of things to one group of people;
appearing as a multitude of gods to others, and appearing not at all to
many. These appear to be the tactics not of a god that wants us to
understand and unite, but of one that actively encourages division, war,
conflict, confusion and stress. [...]</p><p><a class="Subtle" href="http://www.humanreligions.info/violence_and_crime.html" title="There is a surprising correlation between religious beliefs and criminal behaviour, especially sexual assaults.">Religions that fight each other tend to make their adherents believe in them even more strongly</a>.
Group solidarity comes into effect: when you have enemies, you keep a
closer grip on your friends and also reinforce your own group identity.
So, an evil God would appear to mankind in a variety of guises and
preach a number of powerful, but conflicting, religions. It would
therefore create maximum confusion, and maximum suffering, through war
and intolerance. It would preach to each religion that its followers
were right and other followers were wrong! These groups would all
wholeheartedly believe that as God (or, the gods) has revealed the truth
to them, other religions must be wrong and ungodly. That way, most of
the weak, inferior, pathetic people that the evil god creates would fall
foul of one religion or another, and be duped! Once duped, they'd cling
to the lies even more the stronger <i>because</i> of the existence of competing religions. An evil God, indeed, would do this, and this is <i>exactly</i> the state the world is in. Coincidence? If there is a God, it is surely evil!<span class="IQR">”</span></p><p class="Author"><a href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/god.html" title="An evil god is more likely to exist than a good one and is a better symbol of reality">"<i>God Must Be Evil (If It Exists)</i>" by Vexen Crabtree</a> (2005)</p></blockquote><p>If you think it is far-fetched to say that the <a href="http://www.humanreligions.info/christianity.html">Christian</a>
god intentionally causes confusion and division, and is therefore evil,
then perhaps one more story of the Bible will help, from <a href="http://www.holybooks.info/genesis.html" title="Click for more about this Bible book including verse by verses comparison of various translations and commentary.">Genesis</a> chapter 11:</p><blockquote><p><sup>1</sup>Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. <sup>2</sup>As people moved <span title="Might say 'from the east' or 'in the east'.">eastward</span>* they found a plain in Shinar [Babylonia] and settled there. [...]</p><p><sup>4</sup>Then
they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that
reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves;
otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth."</p><p><sup>5</sup>But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower the people were building. <sup>6</sup>The
Lord said, "If as one people speaking the same language they have begun
to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. <sup>7</sup>Come, <b>let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other</b>."</p><p><sup>8</sup>So the Lord scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city. <sup>9</sup>That
is why it was called Babel - because there the Lord confused the
language of the whole world. From there the Lord scattered them over the
face of the whole earth.</p><p class="Author"><a class="Subtle" href="http://www.holybooks.info/genesis.html#Chapter11">Genesis 11:1-9</a></p></blockquote><p>Some
justifications that mankind was attempting to steal God's power or
aiming to be like God (i.e. 'reaching the heavens') don't make sense, as
<a class="Subtle" href="http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/omniscience.html">God is all-knowing and would have known</a> that this was impossible to do by building a tower, no matter how high.</p><p>If

of the death of the unborn and the immense suffering of lovers &

life in order to create suffering. That <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.humantruth.info/food.html" title="From photosynthesis and trophic levels to genetic modification (GM) food and synthetic production of meat in vats. By Vexen Crabtree.">all
life exists in a food chain means that life is completely tied to
death, and such a barbaric biological cycle could only have been made by
an evil god</a>. Also, that such a god appears not to exist, or
actively hides itself, is a source of confusion, conflict, war and
stress and is again more likely the antics of an evil god. Given the
state of the natural world, it is impossible that a good god exists. It
is more likely that an evil god exists, but, it is sensible to assume
that there is no god of either type. Even if there is not a god of
either type, as the dominance of death and violence in the natural
world, a result of nature being abused by life and not being designed
for life, I think the <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/good_and_evil.html" title="Subjectivism and theology">evil</a> symbol of Satan is the best representative of the state of reality and the universe, whether or not an actual evil god exists.</p><p>If
God did exist and was evil, it would undoubtedly lie and tell everyone
it was a good god and that it loved them. It would create maximum
confusion by preaching multiple conflicting religions. It would create
heaven and make it hard to get to in order to tease and torture people
into making their own lives hell. As all of those things <i>happen</i>, if there is a God, it is doing the things an evil God would do!</p><p>Once

myself a Satanist, I could concentrate my life on happiness, <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/love.html" title="The strongest emotion, more worthwhile than hatred">love</a>, stability and peace. Because I know and understand that <a class="Subtle" href="http://www.dpjs.co.uk/death.html" title="Comparing face to face with our own mortality is a life-affirming and positive step">death always wins</a>,
that life is temporary, I waste no time on short-term whims that reduce
my quality of life, or of those around me, and I waste no time with
spiritual pipe dreams. Recognizing Satan as the personified meta-figure

In early Spring of 2020 COVID-19 went wild in Europe and down state NY. Eventually, medical people got a handle on this scourage. <br /></p><p>God creates a lot of evil people and Trump was one of them and so are his supporters. After the moral Northeast got the virus under control the Red state, states that are infested by Bible thumpers, COVID-19 is now killing those fuckers at a rate of 2000+ MAGAts per day and the Thanksgiving surge still hasn't reached its peak. The Christmas COVID-19 may make the Thanksgiving surge look like a small blip on the RADAR. God's ass kissers are the ones dying and God is confused but that's no big deal for God. To God, living things are disposable. God also gets his insatiable ego stroked as people beg for their lives and when and if doctors save them those assholes will give God all the credit even though it was God's virus that infected them.<br /></p><p> </p><div style="color: #999999; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Last updated: December 05, 2020, 01:41 GMT</span></div>

Andrew <a class="link rapid-noclick-resp" data-ylk="slk:came under greater scrutiny on Monday night" href="https://www.insider.com/virginia-giuffre-opens-up-alleged-sexual-abuse-prince-andrew-2019-12?utm_source=yahoo&utm_medium=ingest" rel="nofollow noopener" style="background-color: transparent; color: #003abc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">came under greater scrutiny on Monday night</a>, when BBC's "Panorama" aired a program featuring Virginia Giuffre Roberts, who has accused Epstein and Maxwell of sex-trafficking her, detailing her allegations of sexual abuse by the prince.</div>
<div style="color: #1d2228; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 1.384em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
"This is not some sordid sex story," Giuffre said. "This is a story of being trafficked. This is a story of abuse, and this is a story of your guys' royalty."</div>
<div style="color: #1d2228; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 1.384em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
She described how "in the car, Ghislaine tells me that I have to do for Andrew what I do for Jeffrey, and that just made me sick."</div>
<div style="color: #1d2228; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 1.384em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
"I just didn't expect it from royalty," Giuffre said. "I didn't expect it from someone people look up to and admire."</div>
<div style="color: #1d2228; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 1.384em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
Andrew has repeatedly denied that he had "any form of sexual contact or relationship" with Giuffre. He said in the BBC interview last month that he was at a party in the Woking branch of Pizza Express with his daughter at the time Giuffre says he was abusing her.</div>
<div style="color: #1d2228; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 1.384em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
Trump has also distanced himself from Epstein, who died in a Manhattan jail in August, though <a class="link rapid-noclick-resp" data-ylk="slk:Trump said in 2002" href="http://nymag.com/nymetro/news/people/n_7912/" rel="nofollow noopener" style="background-color: transparent; color: #003abc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Trump said in 2002</a> that they shared a long friendship.</div>
<div style="color: #1d2228; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 1.384em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
Kellyanne Conway, the president's counselor, said this year that Trump hadn't spoken to Epstein "in 10 or 15 years" and that he thought the sex-trafficking charges leveled against Epstein were "disgusting" and "obviously criminal."</div>

<br />
Like the God who created him, Trump is mindless evil! God created Trump and people like him to add to the suffering of the world. Long before Trump slithered out of his mother's fuck hole God knew all about him. Trump is an idea of God, the same god who drowned nearly every living thing on earth and killed his only son.... THAT GOD!<br />
<br />
Trump and his mob are God's agents of evil and suffering. It has been this way throughout history. God created evil and this cruel system of thing. Trump is in many ways a facsimile of God. Trump and trash like him can't help what they are. God predestined them to be what they are. For some deeply depraved reason God planned to to be this way. People who are evil have no choice in the matter. They are merely unwitting agents of a completely evil god. After God created all this evil he created a scapegoat named Lucifer and as legend goes, Lucifer was God's favorite angel. Eventually Lucifer rebelled against God. Like me, maybe Lucifer read between the lines?<br />
<br />
There is evil in this world and God put it there. God has damned all of us. FUCK YOU GOD!<br />

WASHINGTON – When Bassam Ishak heard that Vice President Mike Pence had secured <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2019/10/17/pence-pompeo-turkey-trip-push-syria-cease-fire-trump-says-kurds-not-our-problem/4002909002/" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">a cease-fire in Syria</a> – one that included protections for <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/united-states-turkey-agree-ceasefire-northeast-syria/" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">religious minorities</a> – he felt a wave of optimism that his family back home would be safe. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.5px; letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
But in the weeks since that deal was announced in Turkey on Oct. 17, Ishak's hometown in northern Syria has nearly emptied, with <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.voanews.com/extremism-watch/syrian-christians-fear-persecution-during-turkey-offensive" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Christians and Kurds fleeing </a>amid fears of persecution by Turkish-backed militias.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.5px; letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
When he announced the cease-fire, Pence emphasized Turkey's commitment to shield religious and ethnic minorities in the region. But Ishak and others say extremist paramilitary groups have not adhered to the U.S.-brokered deal, continuing their attacks and terrifying residents in their path. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.5px; letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
"They are frightened. These are communities who grew up hearing stories about the genocide against their people by Turkey in 1915," said Ishak, who left Syria in 2011 and now lives in Washington. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.5px; letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
He was referring to the<a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://nationalinterest.org/blog/middle-east-watch/descendants-survivors-syriac-christians-oppose-turkish-%E2%80%98safe-zone%E2%80%99-syria" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank"> Seyfo massacre,</a> the little-known slaughter of an estimated 300,000 Christians by the Ottomans during World War I.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.5px; letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
"For them to see this happening is like history repeating itself. This is why they’re fleeing," Ishak told USA TODAY.

Now, some predict there will be an "ethnic cleansing" against the U.S.-allied Kurds, as well as the Yazidis and other minorities in northern Syria.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.5px; letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
There is not a precise count of the number of Christians living in this region, but some experts put the figure at about 100,000. The region is diverse, with Arabs, Kurds, Yazidis and others living in relative harmony. The SDF, which is also an ethnically mixed force, gained control of this region after the Syrian civil war broke out. Now, however, Turkey has moved in and Syrian government forces, under the brutal regime of Bashar al-Assad, are also vying for control. </div>

Trump and other top White House officials have strongly defended the decision to withdraw U.S. troops stationed on the Turkey-Syria border. And they say the cease-fire has mostly held – staving off more severe violence. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
"The Turkish leaders made real commitments to the vice president and me when we were on the ground" in Ankara, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told Fox News on Oct. 30. Pompeo traveled with Pence for the Oct. 17 negotiations with Turkey's president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
Pompeo said the Trump administration would continue to monitor the situation and make sure Turkey complies with the agreement. And he said he has not received reports of a genocide in the making.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
The administration has also authorized $50 million in assistance for Christians and other religious and ethnic minorities in northeast Syria.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
A senior administration official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to provide a candid assessment, said the White House has received conflicting reports from inside Syria, and officials are "very aware" of the possibility that targeted violence could spiral. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
"We certainly would not declare an ethnic cleansing right now," this official said. "But we are aware, very aware, of the possibility and have been very clear that that's not something we're willing to tolerate."</div>

The situation in Syria is not just a fraught foreign policy problem. It also has domestic political consequences. If Evangelicals become disenchanted with Trump over his Syria policy, it could cost him dearly in the 2020 election. White Evangelical voters supported Trump by an overwhelming margin in the 2016 election, 80% to 16%, and they have remained deeply loyal amid a cascade of controversies. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
But Trump's decision to withdraw most U.S. forces from Syria opened a rift. Perhaps the most notable criticism came from<a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2019/10/07/pat-robertson-trump-losing-mandate-heaven-over-syria-decision/3903941002/" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank"> televangelist Pat Robertson</a>, who slammed Trump's decision and said the president was "in danger of losing the mandate of heaven.” </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
"The president, who allowed (Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi to be cut in pieces without any repercussions whatsoever, is now allowing the Christians and the Kurds to be massacred by the Turks,” <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2019/10/07/pat-robertson-trump-losing-mandate-heaven-over-syria-decision/3903941002/" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Robertson said</a> during an Oct. 7 episode of his Christian Broadcasting Network show, the 700 Club.</div>

Trump administration officials have tried to quiet the Evangelical storm, reaching out to leaders privately and publicly.</div>
<div style="letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
Victoria Coates, Trump's deputy national security adviser for Middle East and North African affairs, recently went on American Family Radio, to address concerns raised by the show's host Tony Perkins, a powerful conservative Christian leader. </div>
<div style="letter-spacing: 0.3px; margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
A spokesman for the Family Research Council, the group Perkins' leads, did not respond to a request for comment. But during his Oct. 22 show, Perkins noted that while the region is predominantly Muslim, "some of the longest consistent Christian communities in Christendom are there and I think ... it's important that they stay there."</div>

<span class="exclude-from-newsgate">After the U.S.-brokered cease-fire, Turkey and Russia agreed to conduct joint patrols along the Turkey-Syria border.

Trump explains again why he pulled troops out of Syria</div>
The televangelist Pat Robertson stood by Donald Trump during the storm over the “Access Hollywood” tape of the Republican candidate boasting about assaulting women, dismissing the remarks as “macho talk.” As recently as last month, he defended Trump’s attempt to get Ukraine to discredit Joe Biden, calling <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://twitter.com/rightwingwatch/status/1176545544673648640" style="color: #324fe1;">the idea of impeachment “absurd.”</a> But this week, finally, Trump did something that “absolutely appalled” Robertson, leading him to warn that the president was in danger of losing “the mandate of Heaven”: He moved a small contingent of American troops from the Syrian-Turkish border, signaling to Turkey that it could begin an assault on territory held by Kurdish guerrillas.<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
And within days the assault began, with Turkish air and ground forces attacking towns along the border Thursday, tens of thousands of civilians fleeing and a half-million at risk of being caught in the fighting.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
Bassam Ishak, president of the Syriac National Council of Syria, an organization that advocates for the rights of Syriac Christians and other Syrian minorities, told Yahoo News he has been receiving photos and videos of the damage caused by Turkish airstrikes in the region once protected by U.S. forces.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
“People are frightened and many have already fled the area,” he said, <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2019/oct/10/turkish-offensive-triggers-exodus-of-aid-workers-from-syria" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;">citing reports</a> that estimate over 60,000 people have fled their homes in northern Syria since Wednesday.</div>
Trump’s move, reversing a long-standing American commitment to protect the Kurds, who for the last five years have borne the brunt of the fighting against the Islamic militants of ISIS, drew widespread condemnation across the political spectrum, including from such close political allies as Sen. Lindsey Graham. Critics called it a betrayal, and warned that fighting in the area could allow ISIS to regroup. The Kurds have been holding a large number of captured ISIS fighters, who could escape in the chaos (something Trump said <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://news.yahoo.com/trump-withdrawal-explanation-syria-kurds-isis-europe-215740775.html" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;">wasn’t a concern to America</a>, since he assumed most of them would go to Europe).<br />
<div 0px="" class="remaining-body
“You are giving a rope of survival to this group that you just defeated,” Ishak said.</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
But evangelicals were particularly outraged. Others besides Robertson who expressed dismay at the move included Mike Huckabee <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://twitter.com/GovMikeHuckabee/status/1181203936809771008?s=20" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;">who tweeted</a>, “I generally support @POTUS on foreign policy & don’t want our troops fighting other nations’ wars, but a HUGE mistake to abandon Kurds. They’ve never asked us to do THEIR fighting-just give them tools to defend themselves. They have been faithful allies. We CANNOT abandon them.”</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
Among prominent Christian evangelical leaders <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/as-impeachment-looms-gop-revolts-against-trump-on-syria" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;">Jerry Falwell Jr.</a> and <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trumps-syria-decision-tests-the-bounds-of-republican-support-as-he-demands-solidarity-on-impeachment/2019/10/09/b5f0c8b0-eaaa-11e9-85c0-85a098e47b37_story.html" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;">Robert Jeffress</a> were almost alone in backing Trump’s move.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
At first glance, Christian evangelicals wouldn’t seem to have a direct stake in the issue. The Kurds, an ethnic group in a region that encompasses parts of Iraq, Syria and Turkey, are primarily Muslim. There is a considerable Christian population in the affected area of northeast Syria — estimated at around 40,000 by Peter Burns of the Washington-based In Defense of Christians, including members of the Syriac Orthodox church, the Armenian Apostolic Church and the Assyrian Church of the East — but not much evangelical presence either in established congregations or as missionaries.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
But there are larger geopolitical issues in play. Turkey’s fraught relationship with the Kurds has long been a source of tension with the U.S. There are around 35 million Kurds spread across the Middle East, a third of them in Turkey. Their long struggle to establish a national state would threaten Turkish sovereignty over a considerable swath of territory, and Turkey considers their formidable guerrilla army terrorists.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
Meanwhile the Kurds have earned, and cultivated, an image in the West as loyal American allies against ISIS. They have good relations with Israel, a country which evangelicals fervently support. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, whose main interest is in countering Iranian influence on his country’s borders<a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/As-US-leaves-Syria-Netanyahu-reiterates-Israel-can-rely-only-on-itself-604175" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;">, issued a strong condemnation</a> of the Turkish invasion and a warning “against the ethnic cleansing of the Kurds by Turkey and its proxies.”</div>
<div id="yui_3_18_0_3_1570759329740_1706" style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
“Israel is prepared to extend humanitarian assistance to the gallant Kurdish people,” he added.</div>
<div id="yui_3_18_0_3_1570759329740_1700" style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
And evangelicals have reason to be wary of Turkey. It is a member of NATO and a key ally of the U.S. during the Cold War, although more recently it has developed warmer relations, including military, with Russia. <a data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;;" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/08/us/politics/trump-erdogan-turkey-visit.html" style="background-color: transparent; color: #324fe1; text-decoration-line: none;">Trump seems to have a personal bond</a> with the country’s authoritarian president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, praising him last year for his promise “to eradicate whatever is left of ISIS in Syria ... and he is a man who can do it.”</div>
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.3px;">But memories are long in that part of the world, and Christians haven’t forgotten the genocide Turkey perpetrated against Armenian and other Christian minorities a century ago, a crime which Turkey has never acknowledged. More recently, Andrew Brunson, an American pastor of a small church in Izmir, was arrested and held in a Turkish jail for nearly two years, allegedly for associating with a banned political movement — a cause célèbre for American evangelicals who lobbied the Trump administration to seek his release through economic pressure. (He was freed and received a hero’s welcome at the White House last year.)</span><br />
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.3px;"><br /></span>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
Human rights activists sounded the alarm as soon as Trump announced his plans to pull U.S. troops from the area — apparently without consulting the Pentagon or other advisers, after a phone call with Erdogan. The implication of the move is that “the Christians and Yazidis (another ancient religious minority also targeted for ISIS genocide) are no longer protected,” Nina Shea, director of the Hudson Institute’s Center for Religious Freedom, told Yahoo News. “If they don’t flee, they could be killed.”</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.1em;">
The almost unanimous criticism apparently took the White House by surprise; Trump tweeted out a warning to Turkey that he could “obliterate” their economy with sanctions if they misbehaved in Syria. As reports mounted of civilian casualties Thursday, Trump tweeted, somewhat inconclusively, that “....We have one of three choices: Send in thousands of troops and win Militarily, hit Turkey very hard Financially and with Sanctions, or mediate a deal between Turkey and the Kurds!</div>
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.3px;">He didn’t say which course he intended to follow, but unless Turkey — which fields the second-largest army in NATO behind the United States — can somehow be stopped, Shea warns that the outcome “could be the final blow to the 2,000-year-old Christian presence in that region, as those communities across the Middle East watch with horror and conclude that there is no place for them in the Middle East, that their only hope for a future is in the West.”</span><br />

Religion is the cause of many wars or more accurately, religious people are the cause of most wars. One of the biggest religious was included the genocide to 80 million Hindus by Islamists in the name of Allah. <span style="color: #600090; font-family: "Segoe UI", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-decoration-line: none;"><b><a h="ID=SERP,5219.1" href="https://www.sikhnet.com/news/islamic-india-biggest-holocaust-world-history" style="color: #600090; font-family: "Segoe UI", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-decoration-line: none;">Mughal India ~ The Biggest Holocaust in World History ...</a> </b></span>Is anyone surprised?

<br />
As you may know, the Muslim god, the Jewish god and the Christian god is the same vile god. He's probably pissed now because Christians are no longer killing Jews. Hitler, a devout Christian ordered other Christians to kill 6 million Jews which was around 1/2 of the Jewish population at the time. The population of Jews has yet to recover. They are now being targeted by Muslims for extermination. This is not surprising because the god of the Bible and the Koran is a homicidal maniac. What else would you expect from people who god worship a god who drowned nearly every living thing on earth and then killed his own son?<br />

Christards will lie and tell you that Hitler was an atheist. Hitler was a hard core Christian. They will go on to lie and say that Stalin was also an atheist.<br />
