They aerate the soil better than most other animals and provide excellent fertilizer.<br />2. They eat snakes and are one of the best lines of defense against rattlesnakes on a farm or ranch especially. Put in a herd of pigs and rattlers will disappear.<br />Chana @ Lemon Lime Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11656854855385193867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-68883648258501852092013-11-24T18:42:50.709-05:002013-11-24T18:42:50.709-05:00Hagia Sofia into mosque.

Might have been in 1973 when the U.S. Supreme Court found a "civilized" society, founded upon the first principle that God gave us a right to life, could exterminate whatever number of human beings women decided to exterminate, also denying any right of the father towards that child. The reality of abortion-murder-had to be guarded and so its real meaning was changed to the nice sounding "reproductive choice".<br /><br />Since then, the idea of choice in anything other than the extermination of the unborn, is becoming obsolete because our society has adopted the religion of Orwell. Free speech, representative government, the rule of law, moral and ethical standards, the truth of things, individual and community responsibility are not the tenets of this religion and all are becoming obsolete.<br /><br />ElaineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-88094231145227466812013-11-22T19:13:15.535-05:002013-11-22T19:13:15.535-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.mrs adela bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936627540063550202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-85316148951195392592013-11-22T19:07:32.401-05:002013-11-22T19:07:32.401-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.mrs adela bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936627540063550202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-50231978539228644672013-11-22T15:32:44.530-05:002013-11-22T15:32:44.530-05:00I can't really go into too much that is going ...I can't really go into too much that is going on with me off line but suffice to say that when a cop silently gives me the peace/victory sign and before that another tells me that people who are doing good can't be harmed and that is in the bible, and also that he "lives here" in the community and says people "don't see this" and points to an emblem I feel totally entitled in believing that Julia is the one that got away. Orwell didn't include it in his novel but suppose there were others that got away intellectually and morally? That would give the novel a positive ending.<br /><br />Potential and actual? Orwell has said that the moral of 1984 is simple, don't let it happen. It seems logical that there would be so much emphasis on words and numbers. Learning to read and count.<br /><br />Besides, a novel is a work of art and open to interpretation, so if the Muslims you wrote about it can have their meaning I can have mine, too. Everyone typically reads between the lines when it comes to literature.<br /><br />OT but you know I always do that LOL. I'm reading and thinking of the letters, at the kaph sofit. <br /><br />Way OT but isn't 1984, a novel full of letters, numbers, meanings and things being turned upside down? So why not think about letters, numbers, and deeper meanings before Chanukah? Season of letters, numbers, words and of course light.<br /><br /><br />Keliata<br /><br />(tefillos and ratzon.)<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-15396030399517018642013-11-22T15:17:31.690-05:002013-11-22T15:17:31.690-05:00Chris, Freedom of Squeal, I like that
K.A. Orwel...Chris, Freedom of Squeal, I like that<br /><br />K.A. Orwell had despaired of the left. 1984 reflects that despair. He saw a movement that worshiped power. Specifically he despaired of the left's elite, so his last resort is to place some hope in the proles, the working class<br /><br />mrs adela bradley, They're bound to sooner or later. The Islamists have solidified their grip on power with the aid of Europe which preferred them to the military.<br /><br />The pigs claim to aspire to animal freedom, but what they aspire is to be a poor mockery of the humans they replaced. Likewise, the Communists took power only to become classic Asiatic totalitarian regimes. Orwell would have said that he predicted the final outcome in China where Communism has become crony capitalism.<br /><br />Judaism did not have prophet rulers after Samuel, I believe. The prophets anointed the kings by divine will. They did not generally rule in their stead. The monarchy represented secular power, etc...<br /><br />Stalin, like Lenin, however extended into the fourth dimension, since Communism was an imminent kingdom of utopia. There was no true Communism, the Communist rulers were working to bring Communism into being on earth.Daniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-63372018876740471342013-11-22T15:03:39.014-05:002013-11-22T15:03:39.014-05:00Speaking of Islam's shameless thieving, there&...Speaking of Islam's shameless thieving, there's a movement afoot in Turkey to turn Hagia Sophia into a mosque again.mrs adela bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936627540063550202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-78455936880080146782013-11-22T13:57:16.434-05:002013-11-22T13:57:16.434-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.mrs adela bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936627540063550202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-81929770203164050232013-11-22T13:36:33.025-05:002013-11-22T13:36:33.025-05:00I'm starting to believe more and more in the t...I'm starting to believe more and more in the theory of Julia as the "one that got away." There is no mention of what happened to her in room 101 that I can recall. <br /><br />Also, during Winston's first meeting with O'Brien, O'Brien slips up and says only thought criminals insist that the resistance isn't real. Given the many twists and turns in the novel who can really tell what he meant by this? Mixing lies with truth? <br /><br /><br />Given all of the language manipulation and distortions in Oceania even Party members will slip up. There will always be an open mic, eavesdropping, passed messages, resistance movements, and ones that get away.<br /><br />You are second-generation proof of this, Daniel. Beginning with Moshe, to Mordechai, to Esther, along down the line right to you. Speaking of Moshe and Hadassah...both, for lack of a better word, under deep cover within evil empires. <br /><br />No coincidences in the Torah. Again, there will never be total extinction of Jews, and we know the ultimate ending of the Torah, too. In the meantime, we must strive to keep the death and misery counts as low as humanly possible.<br /><br />But getting back to Orwell: The Left is horribly distorting his message. He said the moral of 1984 was a simple one--don't let it happen.<br /><br />Jews will never be extinct. Near extinction but never total so there is always hope and opportunity to survive. While the Nazis were building concentration camps the Bielski brothers in Poland were building chai camps in the forests, and of course successfully resisting.<br /><br />If Muslims can twist Eric A. Blair's novel into something it wasn't why can't I believe that Julia wasn't one that got away, if not physically at least intellectually and morally? <br /><br />Keliata<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-19404231565199228462013-11-22T13:19:05.206-05:002013-11-22T13:19:05.206-05:00I guess some Islamic pigs are more equal than othe...I guess some Islamic pigs are more equal than other?<br /><br />Obviously freedom of squeal is not a basic right....Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10988194376723420616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-84243419168399979522013-11-22T12:09:53.590-05:002013-11-22T12:09:53.590-05:00I don't think Orwell was working from Islamic ...I don't think Orwell was working from Islamic scripture, but the author of the essay is probably of a Muslim background based on his name and predictably projects that. <br /><br />Orwell was likely addressing the Russian Orthodox Church, if the novel is meant to be a definitive parallel with the USSR, and its exploitation by Stalin (and now by Putin) to make their tyranny appear more passable. <br /><br />The use of Moses certainly does not suggest an Islamic derivation.Daniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-52895711823964288522013-11-22T00:13:57.491-05:002013-11-22T00:13:57.491-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.mrs adela bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936627540063550202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-6093341564267876232013-11-21T23:22:29.603-05:002013-11-21T23:22:29.603-05:00Doubleplusgood, the truth ration was just increase...Doubleplusgood, the truth ration was just increased to 30 grams.
