Hollywood in its last days

Hollywood’s diminution arrives as its creativity leaves the scene. Revivals, reboots and sequels are the mainstay of this town’s current revenue stream. Faltering at the box office this summer ticket sales have slowed to a spurt of prior years. This town is full of mimicry not originality presently. Great directors need great scripts not redundancy that is currently being offered them. Entertainment magazines are fraught with previews of duplicates and triplicates of past titles. Star Wars has traveled further than any sequence of cinema presentations in history. Time to put his war horse to bed permanently. Jurassic Park has lived longer than the dinosaurs of old. This fossil too should find a museum for its aging bones. I enjoy a good flick like any other consumer looking for a few hours of suspended disbelief. Yet I will not spend my few quarters on titles that have been regurgitated more than a ruminant chews its curd.

Gun Control and The Hypocrisy of Hollywood

A multitude of Hollywood actors who inhabit a world of fantasy and privilege, protected by their own security, have produced a video that demands gun control in the aftermath of Sandy Hook ("Demand a Plan to End Gun Violence").  The following video exposes their hypocrisy as these very same actors that call for an end to gun violence glorify guns, violence, and death in their "artistic" films.  AAE will normally not post something this vulgar, but it reflects Hollywood's culture.  Additionally, AAE finds the song lyrics used at the end of the video distasteful.

The Filth Emanating from Hollywood

"The name of the game right now is compromise.  Meet in the middle to get things done.... According to the Bible, when that happens, we're no longer standing for anything. We are no longer on the side of the Truth....  You're either hot or you're cold.  We're in almost a period of the Laeodician Church.  We need to pick our side now....  If you're going to be for the world, be for the world.  Don't be doing so much harm being half in and half out.  You're harming yourself and those others who might actually want to know the Truth.  Choose ye this day whom you will follow."  (Angus T. Jones, ~11:30 mark, Part 2 Video)

As Curtis Bowers accurately lays out in "Grinding American Down," the Left's (Communists) agenda is to undermine America's Judeo-Christian culture in order to replace its government with a humanistic, collectivist one (which corresponds with Satan's goals).  The Left correctly understands that our religion and morality are necessary for the success of our nation.  They must remove the guiding star of the Word of God in order to replace our form of government with a tyrannical one.  One of the many ways they have sought to do this is by taking over Hollywood, which they have done quite effectively.  That is why we see such filth emanating from there today.  That filth is intended to assist America in turning away from the Word of God.

I like to divide entertainment media into three categories: meat, sugar, and poison.

Meat is the media that glorifies God, supports the Christian worldview, and strengthens your faith in God.  There is very little meat being produced in Hollywood.

Poison is media that encourages sin, perversion, carnality, depravity, and a worldview that is in direct contravention to that communicated to us by God through his revealed Word.  Poison rots your soul, weakens your faith, and pulls you away from God.  It is a direct replacement for what is provided by the Word of God.  I would contend that a majority of what comes out of Hollywood today is poison, and it is by design.

Sugar is neither meat, nor poison, but does not glorify God and cannot satisfy the longings of the soul by itself.  Therefore, if you do not balance sugar with a good helping of meat, you will continue to consume sugar until you move to poison to fill the emptiness in your soul.  Hollywood is very adept at disguising poison with a heavy dose of sugar to make it more palatable, so one must always be vigilant when consuming "sugar."  That vigilance comes through knowledge and study of the Word.

And now the testimony of Angus T. Jones of "Two and a Half Men."  At the 7:40 minute mark in the Part 2 video below, Jones describes to the Forerunner Chronicles how he realized that "Two and a Half Men" was disseminating filth.  I think he's onto something.  Christians should never apologize for exposing the evil of the world, the flesh and the Devil, if their analysis is grounded in the Word.  Hollywood needs more...a lot more...people like Jones to speak out against the immorality being intentionally peddled by Hollywood to destroy our nation.  Here are some quotes from his testimony:

"I'm on 'Two and a Half Men' and I don't want to be on it,” [Jones] said. "If you watch 'Two and a Half Men,' please stop watching it and filling your head with filth. People say it’s just entertainment. Do some research on the effects of television and your brain, and I promise you you’ll have a decision to make when it comes to television, especially with what you watch." (source)

"You cannot be a true God-fearing person and be on a television show like that." (~9:50 mark Part 2) 

"The name of the game right now is compromise.  Meet in the middle to get things done.... According to the Bible, when that happens, we're no longer standing for anything. We are no longer on the side of the Truth....  You're either hot or you're cold.  We're in almost a period of the Laeodician Church.  We need to pick our side now....  If you're going to be for the world, be for the world.  Don't be doing so much harm being half in and half out.  You're harming yourself and those others who might actually want to know the Truth.  Choose ye this day whom you will follow."  (~11:30 mark, Part 2)

America’s Jihad Sympathizers

Michelle Malkin’s blog today, “In the Mental No-jihad zone,” reminded me that the motivations of America’s jihad sympathizers, who are hell-bent on dragging us all into their cultural suicide schemes, needs a much deeper examination.

Michelle wrote:

“Diana West has the must-read column of the day on the pathetic inability of
Westerners to call the war and the warriors who want infidels beheaded what they
are. Too many of our political and military leaders here and across the pond are
stuck, Diana writes, in a “mental no-jihad zone. . .

Stifling dissent is precisely the mission of the likes of CAIR, which has
chosen veteran syndicated columnist and radio commentator Cal Thomas
as its latest target (via WTOP): . . .

I’d settle for keeping the jihad enablers and sympathizers at CAIR out of
White House events. But we can’t even ensure that. Steve
Emerson reports this morning: . . .”

It looks like the left is winning this political correctness game even as it reaches into the White House. Isn’t it time we really began to understand why the cultural left is so willing to play into the Islamists hands???

Now and then I read a book that is so provocative and so well-documented that I know it’s going into my Hanging Lefties by Their Sorry Words Toolbox. “The Enemy at Home: The Cultural Left And It’s Responsibility For 9/11” by Dinesh D’Souza is such a book. Not only does this book have an impressive index, each chapter’s endnotes run into pages providing a treasure trove of sources and quotes by the major lefty political players.

D’Souza has some impressive credentials. This is from his blog:

DINESH D'SOUZA is the Rishwain Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford
University. Previously he was a domestic policy analyst at the White House. He
is the best-selling author of several books, including Illiberal Education, The End of
Racism, and What's So Great About America. . .

The book, “The Enemy at Home”, published 2007 by Doubleday, has been causing apoplexy among lefty bloggers and D’Souza has come in for plenty of harsh criticism. If you visit Amazon looking for the book you will first encounter the unfavorable Publisher’s Weekly review.

Conservative pundit D'Souza (Illiberal Education) roots the blame for the
9/11 attacks in the left wing's "aggressive global campaign to undermine the
traditional patriarchal family" in this mostly lucid but unconvincing argument.
Pointing to Hillary Clinton, Britney Spears and Noam Chomsky, he decries those
who have teamed up with Hollywood and the U.N. to foist an irreligious, sexually
licentious, antifamily liberal culture—epitomized by Eve Ensler's play The
Vagina Monologues and gay marriage initiatives—on a Muslim world that rightly
reviles it. By deliberately attacking Islamic values, the left tacitly allies
itself with al- Qaeda in its effort to defeat Bush's war on terror and thus
discredit conservatism at home, he asserts. But D'Souza's claim that Islamic
extremists are inflamed solely by America's music videos and feminists—not its
U.S. bases in Saudi Arabia, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or American support
for Muslim dictators—is too single-minded. . .

This is what D’Souza actually says on the book’s jacket:

In faulting the cultural left, I am not making the absurd accusation that
this group blew up the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. I am saying that the
cultural left and its allies in Congress, the media, Hollywood, the non-profit
sector, and the universities are the primary cause of the volcano of anger
toward America that is erupting from the Islamic world. The Muslims who carried
out the 9/11 attacks were the product of this visceral rage – some of it based
on legitimate concerns, some of it based on wrongful prejudice, but all of it
fueled and encouraged by the cultural left. Thus without the cultural left, 9/11
would not have happened. . .

If you scroll down the Amazon review site you will find a few more favorable reviews such as this excerpt from a review by C. Cotten:

It seems that every reviewer here read an interview, or saw the author on Comedy Central, then rushed to write a review here loaded only with a vague
concept of this book's central themes.

First, it should be noted that the author talks about the motivation behind
the book, that in today's public discourse there is very little focus on the
cultural aspects of America that could be fomenting hate and terrorism against
us. There was a void on the subject which he has filled; as he says, "let the
debate begin."

Now whether you ultimately agree with him or not, this IS a debate worth
having, not just as it impacts our current conflict, but as it informs us as a
nation to take a good hard look in the mirror at times. . .
