April 28, 2007 journal, homeless America from banking industry millions of foreclosures. CNN reported on this debtor nation and the new wave of foreclosures due to the sub-bank lending market which has a fixed rate only for the first two years and now those mortgage payments have doubled. There is a massive exodus under way in America from homes to the street were living conditions are going from bad to awful. Already in America people are abandoning their homes and real-estate prices are plunging. Even if they gave away those 150 houses in Detroit which no one bid on, most likely the new owner would not be able to afford the city property tax annually. The American people are entitled to a home free of mortgage or taxes. Now let the rich crooked banking industry suffer the loss and let everybody have a place to live. the chaos in New Orleans and Iraq is spreading to the entire nation. Let every American have an equal opportunity to live free of mortgage fear. God had to show me the power of art. The abominable convocation at Virginia Tech-quoting from The Times examiner weekly newspaper. Blacksburg Virginia, April 18th. From the Christian News wire-yesterday, we Christians set in horror as we witnessed all the false religions of the world being lifted up without mentioning the name of the one who could truly bring healing "Jesus" the nations of the world saw it, and heaven noticed. The men of God are on their way. Not one of those tragically taken on Monday at Virginia Tech is shouting "We are for the Virginia Tech-Go Hokies!" at this moment. They are all bowing before the king of kings and Lord of Lords, "Jesus" Christ. The name of Allah was mentioned 6 times at yesterday's convo-cation, "Jesus" name was not mentioned at all. The Name above every Name, the one whom the Pilgrims professed when they came to this land, the one our founding fathers staked everything on has been scorned and mocked at this abominable convocation. Perhaps now we understand why kids are killing kids at a whim and without a conscience at schools all around America. When God is removed, violence fills the vacuum. May the prophets proclaim from the pulpits "Let Freedom Ring" as "Jesus" Christ is the only one who can bring true freedom. ".. and where the spirit of the Lord is, there is a liberty". 2 Cor. 3:17. This is truth! May this nation listen. From the American Thinker, April 20th, 2007-"Was Cho taught to hate? By James Lewis. Yes, I know. Tens of thousands of ordinary college students are lonely, full of rage, loss in frustrated. A few percent are psychotically disturbed, and some of them can kill. Our big factor colleges are alienating. Take millions of adolescence, and at any time there are bound to be quite a few confused and seething souls walking loose. Just visit the down town in any American or European city, and you can see all the loss and disturbed living in their private hells. And no, that doesn't excuse executing 32 innocents. Still, I wonder---Was Cho taught to hate? Whatever he learned in his classes-did it enable him to rage at his host country, to hate the students he envied so murderously? Was he subtly encouraged to aggrandize himself by destroying others? Was his pathology enabled by the PC University? Or to ask the question differently---was Cho ever taught to admire the good things about his host country, and to discipline himself to build a positive life? And that answer is readily available on the websites of Cho's English department at Virginia Tech. This is a wonder world of PC weirdness. English studies at VT are a postmodern Disney World in which nihilism, moral and sexual boundary breaking, and fantasies of Marxist revolutionary violence are celebrated. They show up in a lot of the faculty writing. Not by all the faculty, but probably by more than half. Just check out their websites. I wonder if Cho took the senior seminar by Professor Knapp on "The self-justifying criminal in literature". Because he certainly learned to be a self justify criminal. Or whether he set in courses with Nikki Giovanni, using her famous self-glorifying book, "The Prosaic Soul of Nikki Giovanni 2003". Maybe he read Professor Bernie Hausman's "Changing Sex: Transsexualism, Technology, and the idea of gender" ...just the thing for a disoriented young male suffering from massive cultural shock on the hypersexual American campus. And even more gender bending from Professor Paul Heilker, who wrote, "Textual Androgyny , the Rhetoric of the Essay, and the Politics of Identity in Composition (or The Struggle to be a Girly-Man in a World of Gladiator Pumpkitude). "Or the Lesbian Love stories of Professor Matthew Vollmer. Yep, that's just what this student needs. These trophy "art works" are all advertised on the English Department faculty websites. Or maybe Cho was assigned Professor Lisa Norris prize-winning book, Toy Guns, featured on her website. The book reviewers wrote "All 10 stories in this disturbing collection revolve around Americans passionate devotion to guns, gun toting, sexually-tinged violence, and the womanly pursuits of power and dignity". "In each wrenching story, we see an America out of control, in love with war ...". I don't know of any Americans who are in love with war, but that is the picture Cho got from his teachers,. Having spent the last 14 years as a resident alien. in the school system, he could know nothing else. And then there is the big Marxist website from Professor Brizee, all in fiery red against pitch black, showing old, mass murder-inspiring Karl flanked by 2 raised fist. It celebrates revolutionary violence and hate for capitalist America (which is paying for Cho's education.) "Critical Social Theory"---the euphemism for PoMo (Post-Modern) Marxism---is a big part of English teaching at VT. The Marxist page links prominently to the British Socialist Workers Party, which is currently leading the charge for Islamic fascism though such creatures as George Galloway. And, talking about Islamist ideas, there is a Professor Carter-Tod, who wrote a report about "Treatment of the Arab-American, Muslims and Seik's (sic) post 9-1-1," for the U.S. Civil Rights commission. The radical grievance industry is alive and growing at VT. Postmodernism, with its hatred for reason, is another big theme for the VT English department. Professor James Collier boast about his book. Philosophy, Rhetoric and the end of knowledge: A New Beginning for Science and Technology Studies, but "the end of knowledge" is the beginning of ignorance. And of course there is the "diversity" croud, diversity being a very well-funded program and ole, guilt tripping VT. There is Professor Carlos Vtia, who describes himself as "... soy director de la, comision de Igualdad y Diversidad en Virginia Tech. "Or in English, "I am also chair of the Virginia Tech Commission on Equal Opportunity and Diversity". There is "research" in "feminist science fiction" and "The comic strip" from Professor Susan C. Allender-Hagedorn. This scratching racial and gender wounds until they bleed is a big preoccupation at VT. What's a kid from South Korea to think? The question I have is: are University faculty doing their jobs? At one time college teachers were understood to have a parental role. Take a look at the hiring and promotion criteria for English at VT, and you see what their current values are. Acting in loco parentis, with the care, protectiveness and alertness for trouble among young people is the last thing on their minds. They are there to do "research", to act like fake revolutionaries, and to stir up young people to go out and revoke against society. Well, somebody just did. I'm sorry but VT English doesn't look like a place they gives lost and anger adolescence the essential boundaries for civilized behavior. In fact, in this perversely disoriented pomo world, the very words "civilized behavior" are ridiculed at least until somebody starts to shoot students, and then it's too late. A young culture shocked adolescence can expect no firm guidance here. But we know that already. What's the English department's official front page reaction to the murder of 32 students just a few days ago? Here it is. "We do not understand this tragedy, We know we did nothing to deserve it, but neither does a child in Africa, dying of aids, neither does the baby elephant watching his community be devastated for ivory, neither does the Mexican child looking are freshwater, neither does the Appalachian infant killed because the land was destabilized" In other words: We don't do nothing, its not our fault. Its greedy capitalism's fault. We don't teach civilized behavior, the value of reason, the cultural foundations of Western thought. We teach adolescent rage, because that's how we make a living. We do narcissistic "research," in Marxist analysis of American brutal capitalism. We are good people. See how much we care about AIDS in Africa. Don't blame us. We are not responsible."
