Teepee teen getting back to nature

justin_burke.jpgI ran across an article in Friday’s edition of the Knoxville News Sentinel about a young man by the name of Justin Burke. Burke, an 18 year old, has decided (for the most part) to leave the headache of modern society behind to embrace a more natural life, in a teepee. Being of Native American decent myself, his story has intrigued, and even inspired me.

Burke has constructed a traditional Native American teepee in the woods just outside of Morristown Tennessee. He has no electricity, and no running water. He hunts his own food, and makes his own clothes out of animal skin. He is almost 100 percent self-sufficient, although he does work a job at a meat packing plant to save money to buy his own land one day. But for the most part, Justin lives in very much the same way that my ancestors lived just a few hundred years ago. Through research and hands on experience, he has mastered the primitive skills necessary to live his life in such a way.

Man, this kid has some guts! He has looked the beast of modern society right in the eyes, and reject it and all it’s creature comforts.  Think about it… no commercial pumping televisions, no computers, no iPods, no noisy cars, no factory processed food, just the peace and health of nature. I think that is freaking awesome!

I don’t know if my family will every be able to go completely native as Burke has, but I do want us to live a more natural, and more sustainable lifestyle one day.  I have been doing some reasearch on sustainable or “green” living. I like the idea of growing our own food, and using the renewable energy that is all around us (like the sun and wind). Maybe one day we’ll be able cut the cords, and go off the grid.

SpiritfX.com a “terrorist website?”

If this wasn’t really happening, I would probably be laughing at the very thought of it, but it is happening, and it’s no joke. In a House Homeland Security Subcommittee hearing on “Terrorism and the Internet” last Tuesday, 9/11 Truth sites were presented along side web sites that offer training in terrorist tactics, and a website that glorified the attack of September the 11th. Basically, they are trying to brand anyone who doesn’t by their official story as a terrorist.

This really shows desperation on their part. They can’t debate us on the evidence and facts, so the only option they have is to try to discredit us. But the facts speak for themselves. It is a fact that WTC building 7 wasn’t hit by an aircraft, yet it collapsed. Actually, it imploded, at near free fall speed, into it’s own footprint. As did the Twin Towers. It is a fact that Jet fuel, which is basically kerosene, cannot burn anywhere near hot enough to melt the tempered steel skeleton of a modern skyscraper. It is a fact the N.O.R.A.D. was conducting war game exercises of hijacked air liners being flown into buildings on the very day of the attacks, and subsequently stood down. It is a fact that whatever hit the Pentagon wasn’t a Boeing 757. And I could go on, and on. It is the FACTS that convinced me that 9/11 was an inside job. They can call me whatever they want, but the fact is that too many people know that facts!

Don’t be afraid of them, my friends. Stick to what you know to be true, no matter what they call you, or how they threaten you. They are the terrorists, not us! They are the violent ones. They are the killers. So, be what you are. Be a patriot!

In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated, and scorned. When his cause succeeds however, the timid join him, for then it cost nothing to be a patriot. -Mark Twain

Using a new WordPress theme

As of today, SpiritfX will be exclusively using the K2 theme for WordPress. K2 is the most advanced front end for the WordPress blogging system that I have seen to date. It has much better support for the plugins I need to make this site work. Not to mention, it’s marvelous use of Ajax to display archives, searches, and commenting without having to reload the page.

Besides all the added functionality, I think K2 gives this site a much better look and feel that the previous themes that I’ve used. I’m probably going to stick with this one for a while. I hope you all like it. Let me know.

Yours Naturally,

The evidence is vast and undeniable, and Loose Change is an excellent tool for waking up your friends and family. I can’t wait to see the Final Cut tomorrow. Check out Loose Change!

Pat Robertson sells out to Evil yet again

rudy_and_pat_294x178.jpgI have to say that I’m not really surprised that televangelist Pat Robertson has given his pretty much worthless endorsement to his pro-abortion, pro-homosexual, pro-police state friend, Rudy Giuliani. Pat Robertson, founder of the Christian Coalition, has been a sell-out in my book for a long time. I remember back in 2001, Pat was quoted in a CNN interview saying the following about China’s murderous one-child policy…

I don’t agree with it,” Robertson said. “But … they’ve got 1.2 billion people, and they don’t know what to do. If every family over there was allowed to have three or four children, the population would be completely unsustainable…. They’re doing what they have to do.

Doing what they have to do? Doing what they have to do! What kind of follower of Jesus Christ could agree with abortion, much less FORCED ABORTION! It is really a shame that so many Christian people look to this guy for leadership. The man’s moral compass is malfunctioning, and anyone who follows him will end up just as lost.

The sad truth is that many people who buy into the false, left-right paradigm will vote for a complete scoundrel like Giuliani, just because the don’t want some “liberal” to win. Well, I hate to be the one to burst their little bubble, but there really isn’t that big of an actual difference between Rudy, Hillary, Barack, or any of the other puppet candidates. They are all for bigger government, more control, more infanticide, more tax raping, more pre-emptive war, and the absolute destruction of our free republic. The only candidate, and I do mean the ONLY candidate that stands apart from that crowd is Congressman Ron Paul. He the real deal, and right now I believe he is our best hope for turning the tide, and saving this nation.
