  • MERRY CHRISTMAS, WHORE!

    The Whore of All the Earth, the Whore of Babylon, The Great Whore of all mankind continues to consort with kings, statesmen, false priests and tyrants. True, her bank accounts are looking a bit moth-eaten but she knows to feign confidence even as she feels the ground tilting under her feet.

    Pilgrims in Bethlehem


    All worship the whore and convince themselves and others that she cannot fall. How can she fall? They gaze with amazement at her greatness, her pomp and ceremony and the vast flow of wealth that passes in her presence.

    How is it? “Her chalice is filled with filth and corruption.” Yes. We find that easy to accept.

    See the nature of the foundations upon which the Whore rests around the Globe. In America it becomes apparent the slavish desire to possess for possession’s sake has led the millions to sell their souls for houses, not homes, that they will never afford. As their dreams crash, pathetic little wriggling worms, we see exposed behind them those who led this blind devotion to Mammon. The financiers themselves fall and of course, the Middle-Men who feel no recourse but to fall upon their own swords.

    There will be more of these.

    In Europe she squats upon her waters and the little people dash hither and yon to find peace and security. In the very midst of Winter, the Bear insists the people play and dance. This will be fun.

    In the East the Dragon sifts his dwindling golden coins through his talons. Something must be done!

    Because of the ponderable slowness of global events, as a rule, these matters should take another year or two yet to become more clearly resolved. It can happen, in the age of the WWW that matters might flare up overnight into an unstoppable contagion! But even the Whore knows the pudding is best done with a slow boil and will do all in her power to maintain a status quo, a flow of tribute in gold, oil, gas and blood. There is no need according to the Whore of All the Earth to hurry when all that she desires is to proceed from banquet to banquet and from chalice to dripping chalice.

    You celebrate with the Whore yet another victory for excess and vanity.

    And in Bethlehem an Arab Catholic celebrates Midnight Mass while sermonising on the unacceptable denials of the Jews.

    We must admit, “It’s all go!” And yes, soon enough it will all be gone.
