Redskins Name Debate: Sports False Flag

While searching for good images of a living and breathing Native American playing the part of a Washington Redskin mascot, it became obvious that the task would prove difficult. I kept running into photos of this guy:

Chief Zee

 
From the Power, Oppression, and Privilege in Sports website: Basically those of us who are calling for a change in these racist mascots are simply calling for respect!  Once again, political correctness is essentially a call for respect.  If it is hurtful to the group in question when you use certain terms (like the blatantly racist term Redskin) or when you use certain imagery, don’t do it!  It is hurtful!

This is an honorable attitude. But longtime Skin fan "Chief Zee" and arguments over sports names are irrelevant to those with the eyes to see.

Satan and his agenda are real. He is very capable at his task, which is to blind the minds of unbelievers, and keep them from receiving Jesus Christ as the only Savior.

2nd Corinthians 4:4, “In whom the god of this world hath BLINDED THE MINDS of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.”

All around us we are seeing an increase in New Age symbolism, one pastor wrote. It would seem we are being slowly indoctrinated into its philosophies supported by an acceptance of its symbols.

 

Consider the change from the "Washington Bullets" to "The Washington Wizards" with the symbols of a WIZARD (Warlock or male witch), a crescent moon, and swastika. In today's environment those symbols must be more politically correct than "bullets."

 “Symbolism is the language of the Mysteries ... By symbols men have ever sought to communicate to each other those thoughts which transcend the limitations of language. Rejecting man-conceived dialects as inadequate and unworthy to perpetuate divine ideas, the Mysteries thus chose symbolism as a far more ingenious and ideal method of preserving their transcendental knowledge. In a single figure a symbol may both reveal and conceal, for to the wise the subject of the symbol is obvious, while to the ignorant the figure remains inscrutable. Hence, he who seeks to unveil the secret doctrine of antiquity must search for that doctrine not upon the open pages of books which might fall into the hands of the unworthy but in the place where it was originally concealed.”

—Manly P. Hall, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, p. 20.

 

Some of our most well-known sports names and logos display this symbolism... the communication of antichrist spirits.

 

 

 

The Houston Texans logo puts this symbolism "language" in our faces. Notice the Baphomet-esque head, with horns... the right eye, represented by a star. This is just one example of the imagery surrounding us.

It's called hiding the truth in plain sight.

Tens of millions football followers, and very few take note of the demonic underpinnings of pro sports. Some know what's going on, and either embrace it or don't care. Sitting on the fence is dangerous in spiritual matters. The fence belongs to the devil.

The debate over the Washington Redskins mascot name is firing back up, after years of simmering on the coals. The president of the United States, Skins owner Daniel Snyder, media 'head Bob Costas and many others are stating their cases in public.

 

Any time we notice a minor issue like a professional sports team name making huge headlines, we should be suspicious. The Bible says several times, Be not deceived.

What does it mean? "Be not deceived." In this context, it warns us to keep our minds and hearts from focusing on issues like the Redskins debate. Sports are fine in their place, but should be low on our priority list.

Unfortunately, many people around the world have been deceived, immersing ourselves in entertainment fantasy worlds.

We're guilty of idolatry when it comes to sports and athletes. We're all idolaters, in some way. It's all about seeing this truth, admitting that it is in fact true, and repenting (turning away, or changing one's mind).

Mark 1:15, “And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.”

To a Christian who has read his Bible with discernment, "Wizards" is more deadly than "Redskins." Partly because it seems innocent to the casual eye.

Ephesians 6:12, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

 

Freelance Writer Life: Year One

The online freelance writer seems to have peaked a few years ago, around the time President Obama was just getting comfortable in his first term. Jobs got scarce. I finally decided to augment my income with online writing assignments in May of 2011. Apparently the bubble had just burst. I charged in anyway.

One year later, the dozen or so sites I registered to write with has shrunk to several main pillars: Suite101, Associated Content (Yahoo!), and Examiner . And then, there is this very blog.

What have I learned?
That it takes a LOT of articles to make this worth your time, if you're in it for the money.

If you want to get your name out there, or just love to write, you will love the nature of freelance writing. You can be as casual or focused as you want. Serious freelancers who want to make a real living should find clients who offer contracts. But if you have no writing portfolio, one of the sites mentioned above can help build some credibility.
Most viewed/read articles:
On Waffle's Shaddai, the "quarterback Sam Bradford v. entertainer Seth MacFarlane" doppelganger post has pulled a lot of people. Probably lots of Family Guy fans. "Is Kobe a Vampire?" was the top attention-getter for a while, but Sam & Seth passed it in spring on 2012.

Associated Content must have temporarily spotlit my "best actor-athlete of the modern era" article. It leads second place, about underrated films, by a 5-to-1 margin.

On Suite, a news item about Eurobasket 2011 spawned several high-ranking articles. A story about Macedonia's upset over host Lithuania actually beat ESPN's comparable stories, in the days after the game. Suite has reset the entire site and erased all of the social network approvals, but Facebook and Twitter really pushed that article... As for long-term articles, an article about the children of the rich and famous continues to draw readers months after publication.

Examiner has been a time-eater, as I am covering a local minor league baseball team. Too much competition from news outlets with more access. This was a gig I didn't think through very well. I could just quit and lose the few dollars I have queued in their till. Or try to switch over to video game reviewer, which is not dependent on other people's time. We shall see. Probably one of my most popular articles there was a short history of the Salem Red Sox franchise. The editors there liked it, anyway.

Have I made any money?
Not really. Let's check the numbers:

About fifty-five weeks.

Maybe fifty articles/posts across all platforms.

Total from pennies-per-view and other assorted ways to get paid: $15. (Doesn't include interested surfers who checked out Alexandr or the fiction. Still nothing to write home about.)

Not bad for the first year, considering I didn't take the freelance commitment as anything more than a tool for brand exposure. Name recognition was the original goal and it proceeds....
