The borders to hell are open. It is open season on the last men and women standing. Actions speak louder than words, though, these days we have little action and are frightened to use words. Our boys in the trenches and in the desert didn't spare their words or their deeds. They spoke with action and deed and we are now pissing on their graves with fear and compliance. Thank God they did not know the cowardice that we see here in Australia today.
We are being pitted family against family; friend against friend, politician against people, and all the while words used as weapons against words. We are all ants in a jar and we are accepting that someone is shaking us up and for some reason, none of us uses those important words of all WHY? And WHO?
Our words are being censored, changed, and misinterpreted. Our lives are thrown into tailspins. Life has become existing, not living. We meekly decide to live under the radar, rather than face the fury of the government who has decided that our Rights amount to nothing when compared to the common good.
Those that we elected to govern on our behalf now rule us and we have gone from government by the people for the people to government by a few of the people to some of the people. So much for democracy.
It could be said that 90% of the population agree with vaccinations. Until you ask how many people got the vaccination because they were threatened with loss of income and the right to a bloody life.
It saddens me that Australia has become a nation of weak and fearful cowards who would prefer to lose their rights in order to have a coffee in a street side cafe.
I suspect that our brave young diggers who fought in the mud and the stench of warfare would not worry about such things. But that was the past. And no one cares about that anymore.
After all, the past remains the past unless it is politically correct to bring it to the present.
But who cares about them anymore?
They are just ghosts in the wind and no longer relevant to modern Australia. According the left.
As we have seen so many times before, life does not come down to words. Ir comes down to actions. And no matter how much words are changed or misinterpreted, actions do speak louder than words.
There was a time when words were our most powerful weapon because their meaning was not open to misinterpretation. The precision of a carefully worded law ensured that they meant what they said.
The word " shall " means no ifs, buts or maybes. It SHALL be done. When courts interpret words to reflect a changing perception of a word's meaning they are ignoring the intent of the law and the words as they were written. The same can be said for dictionaries.
Some time ago, Redhead wrote a piece about the Lord's Prayer and how the words have been " updated " from those that we learned and recited as children. I subsequently wrote an article about the intent of words and how it was becoming increasingly easy to manipulate intent by changing the words and redefining them.
I cited the word TRESPASS.
- Make unlawful and unwarrantable intrusion … upon lands or rights.
Today, it is defined as exactly the same thing. So what have they done? They simply CHANGED THE WORD!
To DEBTS.
Truly?
Debt is something that is OWED. A trespass is something that is STOLEN.
At least Americans can still fight trespass.
Help us cover our monthly costs
Of course, I have often wondered about the idea that we should be forgiven for stealing someone's rights or property and the victim should in turn forgive those that trespass against them. However, after careful thought, I realised that this meant that there was no point in destroying our peace of mind and quality of life because of something that is beyond our control.
I look at the term forgiveness and ultimately it means to not feel resentment or bitterness.
What a shame many of our left wing luvvies have not learned the meaning of forgiveness. After all, they wish to blame the sins of the father upon the son and make us feel shame for something we did not do. They exalt their bitterness and resentment and demand that we share their self hatred and self contempt.
On that note, I doubt that God would be supportive if the BLM and Antifa mob gatecrashed Heaven and started demanding the Pearly Gates be torn down and the Gates of Hell opened so the hordes of the Devil could pour into Heaven and burn the Bible. Somehow, I suspect God would not like this trespass one little bit.
One day I might get to ask him his thoughts on this matter and he will forgive me for being a prat and tell me that HE has border control and that HIS passports cannot be bought and sold for votes or paper bags full of money.
But I digress.
However, while I encourage you to read the article by Redhead in tandem with the one mentioned above, the reason for my article today is about the Merriam Webster's announcement of the word of the year for 2021.
We have moved on from changing the word to redefining the meaning of the word - almost like cutting out the middleman.
The word is VACCINE.
So let us have a look at how the definition of the word has changed over the years.
In Redhead's old dictionary
VACCINATE
Innoculate with vaccine to procure immunity from smallpox or with modified virus of any disease in order to produce it in mild form and so prevent serious attack. ( 1964)
Her " new " Dictionary ( 2004 )
VACCINE
A substance designed to cause a mild form disease to make a person immune to the disease itself. (2004 )
In September 2021, Matt Margolis of PJ Media wrote:
that it would appear that the CDC is trying to change how we understand the concept of vaccinations.
He highlights the definition of terms on August 26, 2021.
Immunity: Protection from an infectious disease. If you are immune to a disease, you can be exposed to it without becoming infected.
Vaccine: A product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease. Vaccines are usually administered through needle injections, but can also be administered by mouth or sprayed into the nose.
Vaccination: The act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease.
Immunization: A process by which a person becomes protected against a disease through vaccination. This term is often used interchangeably with vaccination or inoculation.
That had been their definition since at least May 16, 2018, according to PJ Media.
But then, come September 1, suddenly there was a big change.
Immunity: Protection from an infectious disease. If you are immune to a disease, you can be exposed to it without becoming infected.
Vaccine: A preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases. Vaccines are usually administered through needle injections, but some can be administered by mouth or sprayed into the nose.
Vaccination: The act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce protection from a specific disease.
Immunization: A process by which a person becomes protected against a disease through vaccination. This term is often used interchangeably with vaccination or inoculation.
So we have gone from immunity and prevention to protection.
Back to Redhead's dictionaries:
Immunity - protected against a specific disease. Ability to resist disease.
Protection - keep safe defend, guard. To defend, trouble or loss.
If we now compare with current definitions
The Cambridge Dictionary
protection against a particular disease or illness by particular substances in the blood
Protection
the act of keeping someone or something safe from injury, damage, or loss
Here is the conundrum for those that seek to redefine the meaning of words.
All roads lead to Rome.
No matter how much they change the definition of the word VACCINE; no matter how often they change the definition of IMMUNITY and no matter how often they update dictionaries, they all come down to the keyword :
PROTECT.
And that definition still remains the same today as it was decades ago. To keep safe from harm, injury or loss.
My question is this:
Are we being kept safe from harm, injury and loss?
" To be kept safe is to be not likely to be in danger or likely to be harmed."
Oh dear.
I have a feeling that we have just been trespassed against and on this particular occasion, 100% of us will not be quick to forgive the trespass or the debt our governments owe us.
People like me, who have been treated like lepers or people like my daughter who have been turned into lab rats in order to feed their families and pay the mortgage.
I suspect even God would draw the line at this trespass and question the ability to forgive those who trespassed against us. And Him.
