James Anthony Traficant, Jr. (May 8, 1941 – September 27, 2014) On August 17, 2012 I had the privilege of interviewing the late James A. Traficant, Jr. Even those many have ignored these words, every day that goes may, gives them more meaning. It is up to us to take the country back.

"The Big One Is Coming" - V The Guerrilla Economist Exclusive

By Live Free or Die and Susan Duclos

For all of our readers and listeners who have been waiting for an update from 'V the Guerrilla Economist', Live Free or Die and myself had the opportunity Friday night to interview the man who has been WAY ahead of the game for a long time now, his warnings and predictions eerily accurate, and what he shared with us is the kind of information that we have all been waiting for.

"V" begins by updating us on recent information that he has received from his 4-Star General source and warns that events are still on schedule, a schedule that he previously warned would leave the US dollar 'undermined' by 2015 and the US ceasing to exist as a nation by 2017. While millions of Americans believe that 'those running the show' are bumbling and stumbling idiots, "V" refutes that argument by telling us that for them, things are going exactly according to plans.

The process of undermining the US dollar is well on schedule as well; more than 105 countries have decided that the dollar no longer works for them, joining Russia, China and other BRICS nations in leaving the dollar as the entire world comes to the realization that America's leaders are insane. Their recklessness and evil ways have left tremendous shame upon our nation.

Though there has been much manipulation and propping up, but that is only setting us up for the inevitable 'massive crash'. They're getting ready to 'bring in the chaos' we are warned, as well as informing us "the big one is coming," and before they are done, a 'Mad Max'/'Road Warrior' scenario isn't totally out of the picture. Between bio-weapons unleashed upon America after the collapse that may leave 25 million Americans dead within days, "V" moves on to the signs that we should be looking for as the end comes closer.

In the portion where "V" describes his interactions with the General, we get a very clear, disturbing glimpse into how the US Government plans to deal with the "chaos" that is coming and it will chill you to the bone as he describes what was asked of, and offered to the General, and the General's visceral reaction.

(Note- Towards the end of the Skype interview sounds issues developed and despite everybody rebooting and reconnecting. those issues continued until we had to call a halt, but we are assured that V will return for another, soon)

“Noah”: A Biblical Tale Rewritten to Push an Agenda

Since its release in early 2014, the big-budget movie “Noah” has caused controversy for not being biblically accurate. While that is certainly the case, the movie does more than take liberties with the Bible: “Noah” pushes messages that have nothing to do with the Bible. These messages are actually political and come directly from the world elite. The primary message? Humanity needs to be cleansed … again.


Throughout his movie-making career, Darren Aronofsky has created quite a few controversial movies with a powerful underlying message (see my article on the movie Black Swan here). None of his work can be considered “idiotic” and, despite what critics say, Noah is not an idiotic movie either. Sure, it contains giant stone monsters, primitive bazookas and Noah killing a bunch of poor souls, but the movie is smart enough to effectively communicate several of its core messages, twisting one of the oldest tales in the world to push an agenda that is very 2014.

While many viewers were upset about the many liberties taken in this retelling of Noah’s Ark – a tale that exists in Jewish, Christian, and Muslim literature – the messages added to the story should be even more upsetting. Noah re-formats this ancient tale to describe the basic premise of a new religion, one that has been pushed on the masses for years. Based on the elite’s long-term Agenda of drastically depopulating the Earth, this new religion is about radical environmentalism, the devaluation (and even hatred) of human life, and the re-alignment of morality towards a new axis.

Underground Bases, Tunnels And Ancient Civilizations - Who And What Lies Below Us And What Are They Doing Down There?

By Susan Duclos

Author and researcher Dr. Richard Sauder joins Paul Sandhu for an absolutely riveting interview on a variety of topics, but primarily focusing on underground bases and/or facilities, both military and corporate, as well as ancient labyrinths created by "intelligent beings," that lie far beneath the ground we walk upon.

Citing ancient Hopi legends of living underground with the "Ant people," to the works of Brien Foerster providing supplemental evidence of these ancient human-like beings having existed from archaeological findings of beings with elongated skulls, to Giants and the incredible labryinths far beneath the pyramids, showing far advanced technology.... evidence either destroyed or covered up because it cannot be explained in a  manner consistent what we have been told.

Dr. Sauder recounts speaking to an Egyptian military officer that spoke of multiple levels and miles of extensive labyrinths and tunnels beneath the Pyramids, things that visitors are not allowed to see but which the military has knowledge of, with artificially created openings leading to them, to which he states that mainstream Egyptology has been complicit in hiding.

At the 28 minute mark Dr. Sauder and Sandhu bring the topic of underground facilities into present day, the DUMBS aka Deep Underground Military Facilities and what they are used for, but also provides anecdotal evidence that it isn't just the military using these types of underground cities, but the industrial world is as well, storing technology in preparation for some type of probable planetary catastrophe in the hopes that mankind will not have to start from scratch when the event occurs.

In his book "Hidden In Plain Sight - Beyond The X-Files" and quoted in a 2012 article at Know The Lies, Sauder writes: "it is clear to me that there are power structures on this planet that closely interface with, and yet remain separate from, the official power establishment of any nation as publicly presented in the mainstream news media."

At the 56 minute mark the conversation takes a turn to the Ebola crisis in west Africa and the "troubling evidence trail that the outbreak may not be natural," referring to the belief many have that it was deliberately created in a manner consistent with bio warfare. Sauder also points out the inconsistency of the US sending members of the military to Ebola infected areas for "logistical" support when the Ebola crisis is definitely a health issue not a battlefield issue, pointing out that once they return they could potentially act as a "global infection vector," spreading the disease far and wide.

This brings us to Dr. Sauder's website, Event Horizon Chronicle," where on August 17, 2014, in an article titled "Bilderberg Group Unleasehes Demons On The World," where he asks if the "Ebola Gambit" could be the planned depopulation of Africa and the world?"

Could the brewing Ebola crisis have anything to do with one of the main 2014 Bilderberg topics of discussion: "Who will pay for the demographics?" After all, it is just in the weeks since the Bilderberg meeting that the Ebola crisis has suddenly been uncorked on the world.

Of course, that question begs the question as to precisely what "demographics" the Bilderberg conferees undertook to discuss.

Would that be "demographics" as in a global population that is seen as too large and which therefore must be reduced? As in, which global populations or demographic groups will pay the heaviest price for being too large, or too undesirable, i.e, which part of the herd will be culled? The desirability and undesirability of said groups to be defined by the Bilderberg attendees, to be sure.

The tie-in  between the underground facilities and the Ebola virus is the rumors that geoengineering of deadly viruses and diseases is being conducted in some of those underground bases and facilities.

Extremely fascinating show with much more included within.... it is a must listen to interview.

Nicole Kidman’s Father Dies Amid Pedophile, Child Murder ring allegations (video)

Dr. Antony Kidman died Friday after fleeing Australia when accused of the sexual abuse and murder of children in an elite Sydney pedophile ring. A month prior Fiona Barnett had filed a complaint with the Australian NSW police and Child Abuse Royal Commission alleging Kidman’s sexual and physical assaults on her throughout childhood. When the Commission opened an investigation the clinical psychologist suddenly left his 43 years with the Sydney University of Technology and Royal North Shore Hospital to stay in Singapore until he died. The family has refused to comment and Singapore police opened an investigation on what they termed as an unnatural death.

Yesterday Barnett released her own theory about Kidman’s death,” The main perpetrator of my child sexual abuse, Antony Kidman, is dead after I filed formal complaints accusing him of the rape, torture and murder of children in an exclusive Sydney pedophile ring. As a child victim of mind control I feel he’s been sacrificed for failing to adequately program me.”

“Kidman was responsible for ensuring that I never disclosed pedophile ring activities that I witnessed as a child,” she continued. “He failed. News of Kidman’s death impacted me, someone who has undergone intense treatment. I know that there are other victims of Kidman’s crimes out there who are perhaps not as far along the healing path as I am. I anticipate that news of Kidman’s death may have a serious impact on these victims. A perpetrator’s death can even trigger suicidal ideation.

“My complaints last month to the Australian Child Abuse Royal Commission detailed two incidents in which Kidman subjected me to horrific physical and sexual assault” Barnett said. “But there are even more serious crimes against children that I witnessed Kidman commit as a member of the elite Sydney pedophile ring. Those complaints have gone to the International Common Law Court of Justice in Brussels.”

Barnett spoke out the day of Kidman’s death – White Balloon Day 2014 – an event aimed at raising awareness for Australian children affected by sexual assault. She stated, “My contribution to White Balloon Day 2014 is to urge my fellow victims of crime to fight the filth that this monster deposited in their minds and if they can muster the strength, join me in my effort to give a voice to victims who are no longer with us.”

The ICLCJ Court has been looking into Barnett’s allegations against Kidman in relation to their investigation of the global elite Ninth Circle Satanic Child Sacrifice Cult. Over sixty eyewitnesses such as Barnett have testified of Ninth Circle child sacrifice and pedophile activities that spanned the globe, including criminal activities against children in the Americas, Netherlands and UK commonwealth countries such as Australia.

The Ninth Circle was also said to have well organized and secretive human hunting parties that included pedophilia. Privately owned forest groves were believed used in the US, Canada, France and Holland. It appeared children and teens were obtained by the criminal drug syndicate Octopus, which was believed connected to the Vatican. The kidnapped children and teens were said to be stripped naked, raped, hunted down and killed.
     

Since the tender age of three Barnett had been trapped inside Australia’s vast pedophile network where children were sex trafficked, hunted down for sport and murdered. “In the late afternoon of Oct. 28 1975 I was taken to my sixth birthday party in the Kiama rainforest,” Barnett said. “The cordial was spiked with drugs. I fell asleep. When I awoke it was dark and I was lying naked face-up spread-eagle on a picnic table with my hands and legs tied. Perpetrators took turns sneaking up on me. A large group of men arrived in pick up trucks. They carried rifles and had a pack of starving Doberman dogs. I was told that the group of naked children huddled nearby were my responsibility. I was to run and hide them. Every child I failed to hide would be killed and fed to the dogs. They painted something on my back and chest, and then released us. I pushed the children up over the first steep hill. It was about the second or third hill that the hunting party reached us. Shots were fired and children began dropping all around me. With all hope lost of my saving the other children, I took off and ran for my life.”

Dutch therapist Toos Nijenhuis testified at the ICLCJ Court that as a child and like Barnett, she was badly abused and forced to witness child murders that involved global elites, claimed childhood torture at Barnett’s same Australian Holsworthy Army Base and like Barnett, was a victim of Human Hunting Parties. Nijenhuis’ perpetrators included former Pope Joseph Ratzinger, Dutch Catholic Cardinal Alfrink and Bilderberger founder Prince Bernhard. Nijenhuis explained to International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State Secretary Reverend Kevin Annett, her witness to child sacrifices as late as 2010.

The Ninth Circle Satanic Child Sacrifice Cult could easily hide crimes of their global elite members. They were well trained by Hitler’s mind control experts from Nazi Germany. Barnett’s Nazi grandfather’s pedophile network was said to include clinical psychologists Kidman and John W. Gittinger who developed a popular test among psychiatric professionals known as the Personality Assessment System. In the Independent Australia News Barnett stated that as a young child, “Gittinger abused and raped me.”

In another article of the Independent Australia News it was reported that Barnett’s dramatic testimony put members in tears when she went before the Australian Royal Commission into Child Sexual Abuse. Barnett had named as her perpetrators her grandfather, Kidman, two former Australian prime ministers, a Parliament House governor general and a state police commissioner. As with child pedophile rings in the Netherlands, Europe, Canada and the US, the Australian pedophile network was said to include police officers, psychiatrists, biochemists, psychologists, actors, writers, politicians, university lecturers and medical doctors.

“The Commission was in the process of investigating my complaint when Kidman was found to have left the country,” Barnett said. “Now one month following my notification against Kidman, he is dead. Kidman’s death comes as no surprise. In the past week alone, two people predicted his imminent demise.”

This article is dedicated to victims of the Vatican and mafia-run global elite Ninth Circle Satanic Child Sacrifice Cult, and to the memory of over 50,800 missing children, some of whom rest in 34 mainly Catholic-owned unmarked mass grave sites – that have been refused excavation – across Canada, Ireland and Spain. The child perpetrators continue to live lives free of responsibility for their ongoing crimes. Our prayers are with these innocents, and should be for ourselves if we allow this Child Holocaust by our global leaders to continue.

Chaos of War – The Next Will Be no CNN TV Special

According to reliable sources, the primary reason I have been for backing off of war is because this is by no means going to be some TV CNN special where you watch things be blown up on TV as if it were a surreal movie or video game. First, Russia has intercontinental nuclear capability but it also has battle-field tactical nuclear weapons that would be used if their troops were truly going to lose. Secondly, China will support Russia and has already come out and taken their position against the arrogant posturing of the United States. Thirdly, there are sleeper cells within the United States that will take out power-grids and poison water supply. Cut the power and the USA will fall into chaos in a matter of days. In part, this is why Homeland Security has bought more than 1700 tanks for domestic use and it is also the thinking behind 1033 and the militarization of the police domestically. Either way, be it sovereign default on pensions and social programs that are inevitable or a domestic attack that takes out power-grids and poisons the water supply, troops are here to react. Homeland Security has been staging military drills taking various cities without notice to local politicians.

The stupid warlike Republicans who want to attack ISIS had better think twice before going down this road. If America puts boots on the ground, we will be drawn deeper and deeper into a war that nobody is going to win.

On the evening of Monday, August 18, 2014 the US Army commenced military exercises in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. MH-60 variant Black Hawk helicopters buzzed through the downtown and residential areas of the two Midwestern cities as reported by CBS local news. This shocking event was actually a repeat of August 2012 exercises we previously reported. The U.S. Special Operations Command conducted exercises until the beginning of September along with police from Minneapolis and St. Paul using helicopters, including Black Hawks.

The ominous exercises, which took place over three days between the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security in close collaboration with the local police who have been militarized, is part of a campaign to prepare for civil unrest but this can unfold from economic situations or caused by internal attacks at the hands of sleeper cells intent upon unleashing chaos within the USA. Moving to electronic currency will help eliminate bank runs during such a crisis in addition to ensuring the government gets every penny of tax. Yet moving to electronic currency will also raise the potential to shut down the US economy entirely by taking out power-grids.

The next war is not going to be just a media event we watch on CNN and say WOW! Get’em. This time it will not be a video game. If we do not temper the arrogance of Washington, these nut-jobs will bring the war home this time and it will not be a video game version.

“The Last Lecture” by Randy Pausch

We have Randy’s book “The Last Lecture” on our coffee table and I spent some time reading through it again yesterday.  For me it is a useful “pull your head out of butt” tool, when needed.

For those who haven’t seen it, Randy gave his last lecture live at Carnegie Mellon on September 18, 2007.  He died 10 months later on July 25, 2008. But his big picture words of wisdom live on, in print and on Youtube. Happy Monday.

Here is a direct video link to the full 1:17 presentation. Here is a shortened 10 minute version he did on Oprah.



Here was a 41 minute special Diane Sawyer did with Randy in April 2008.

Coast To Coast AM September 4, 2014 9/11 Truth & Prophecy

Coast To Coast AM September 4, 2014 9/11 Truth & Prophecy 
Guests:  Richard Gage, Father Andrew C. Wingate, Lionel Fanthorpe

In the first half, Founder of Architects and Engineers for 9-11 Truth, Richard Gage, talked about the destruction of the three World Trade Center high rises on 9-11, and why 2,250 architects and engineers have found evidence for controlled demolition and are calling for a new investigation. Upon viewing evidence not presented in mainstream media, it's possible to discern when a building is falling down versus when one is collapsing, and he's concluded that even though planes hit two of the towers, "all three towers were brought down by controlled explosive demolitions." The video evidence of the collapse of Building 7, as well as the Twin Towers, shows that each of them are destroyed suddenly, and explosively, and in free-fall in the case of Building 7, he added.
Investigative consultant RJ Lee found a large amount of tiny iron spheres (from molten iron) in the World Trade Center dust, which is consistent with what one would find if thermite incendiaries were used for the demolition, Gage continued. The 9-11 Commission members themselves say they were lied to by the Bush administration, and set up to fail, and the attorney for the Commission, John Farmer, stated that at some point there was a decision made not to tell the American people the truth about 9-11, he reported. Further, Gage remarked that the operation must have included people going all the way or near all the way to the top of the government, in that NORAD was ordered to stand down, when normally they would quickly respond to bring hijackers down.

Evil and Exorcisms

Third hour guest Father Andrew Wingate reviewed some of his past predictions, and shared updates on exorcisms, "end times," and the Fatima prophecy. He connected recent extreme weather and storms, as well as diseases such as Ebola, to the rise of evil, and believes that some 1-10% percent of the population are actually possessed. The Devil seeks out people of privilege and power such as politicians, he noted. In one particularly scary exorcism he witnessed, an individual who was chained to anchors in a foundation managed to pull some of them out during a levitation, he recalled.

Mysteries of the UK & Beyond

In the last hour, author and paranormal expert Lionel Fanthorpe spoke about various mysteries, and some of his travels to unusual locations in Wales and the UK, such as a church tower in St. Martin that leans like the Tower in Pisa. He recounted a case dating back to around the time of the French Revolution. There was a European village that has been referred to as the "Village of the Damned," in which the dead were seen to walk around. In an investigation, some graves were opened, and the medical explanation was that a number of people who'd been buried had actually just been in a deep coma, and made attempts to get out of their graves.

Opening The Door To Satan: This Generation's Obsession With Tattoos

This post is outside my normal realm of attention, but I think it is nonetheless important for us to consider.  For those of us who are spiritually aware of the evil that is cascading upon the earth, we see our culture a little differently than most.  We recognize all the ways that Satanic influence is creeping into our consciousness: through violent video games; through our music and entertainment; through the rapid integration of humans and computers in the quest for "eternal" existence.  Just 20-40 years ago, what might have been viewed with suspicion by a generation more "tuned in" to God, is now easily accepted and adopted by a more "humanistic" society ... everything is allowable when it comes to expressing yourself.

     No practice is more pervasive these days than tattooing oneself.  Tattoos have existed throughout time, and even The Greatest Generation came home from the last World War with souvenirs of their battles inked on their forearms.  But this generation has taken "the art" of tattooing to new levels.  It is no longer enough to display a small heart or butterfly on your shoulder or ankle; or, if you are a guy, to tattoo some bad-ass image on your deltoid muscle.  Now, tattoo "sleeves" are sported by everyone from celebrities to the hamburger flipper at McDonalds.  The wearer displays a collage of tattoos that covers most, or all, of his/her arm; usually from shoulder to wrist.  But it is not uncommon to find that chest, back, both arms, the neck, and even parts of the face are covered with tattooed images.  

 

     So what do you think?  Is this just the unique method with which this generation is expressing itself?  Or could it lead to something more sinister?  I contend the latter.  But I want to make it clear that I do not believe that everyone who makes the decision to get a tattoo is doing it to pay homage to the devil or some malevolent spirit.  On the contrary -- most do not even know the implications of what they are doing in the name of "fashion".  So let me give you something to think about.

 

     Most Christians are aware of the Leviticus 19:28 verse in the Bible:  “You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD.”  But do you understand why God gave this commandment?  As always, it is important to know the full context of any Scripture quoted.  One of the primary reasons that the litany of rules and commandments that abound in Leviticus were instituted was to keep God's Chosen People from imitating the pagan societies that surrounded them.  There were rites and ceremonies that the pagans observed at the death of loved ones and at the time of a funeral.  They would cut themselves and tattoo themselves on behalf of the dead, in order to pacify the gods of the underworld that they worshipped, and thereby gain a favorable position for their dead friends or relatives.  The ritual of tattooing began as a means to placate and appease the demonic spirits of Satan.  (See commentary by noted theologian Matthew Henry).

 

     Now, I have read blogs by Christian Pastors who have chosen to approve tattoos, especially those that express symbols of our faith and Christianity.  They will say, "The tattoo of today is much different than it was for those who originally received the Pentateuch. Today, a tattoo is a decorative means of self expression and personal decoration... but in our cultural context they do not denote a connection with evil or false faith. In the same way tattoos today do not link the wearer to cultic worship practices and is not generally practiced for ancient religious purposes, tattoos today are for ornamentation."  

 

     These blogs will then go on to rationalize that the Christian is free to tattoo themselves because we are no longer under the Old Testament Law.  They will explain that tattoos can give glory to God and be a tool for evangelizing.  But they just don't go far enough in their understanding!  And when they say tattoos don't mean the same "in our cultural context", what about what it means to the demonic spirits?  Do you think they play the game according to our "cultural context"?

 

     At the root of my opinion about tattooing is the fact that the Bible clearly states, "For the soul of the flesh is in the blood, and I myself have put it upon the altar for you to make atonement for your souls, because it is the blood that makes atonement by the soul in it." (Leviticus 17:11).  Throughout the Bible, God makes it plain: Blood is important to Him; He regards Life and Blood as sacred.  Blood is Life, and God claims it as sacred to Himself -- so Sacred that it is the instrument of our atonement.  We can only find forgiveness through Blood.... and only Christ's Blood!

 

     BUT HERE'S THE DEAL!  In their book, Dictionary of Cults, Sects, Religions and the Occult, authors George Mathers and Larry Nichols give us this description of Blood:  The vitalizing or life-giving agent used in the sacrament of the BLACK MASS. Blood is believed to provide power and life and therefore plays a central part in ritualistic sacrifices.  Blood is the "power source" in the spiritual realm of the occult!  

 

     So what does all this have to do with getting that beautiful work of art inked on your skin?  None other than Rolling Stone Magazine, gave this description of the process of getting a tattoo:  ""Evan Seinfeld, the bassist for Biohazrd, sits in the chair, offers his hand and waits for the bleeding to begin. . . The instrument whirs to life, humming across Seinfeld's hand, creating a vibrating pool of blood and ink."  (Rolling Stone, March 28, 2002, p. 40).

 

     Then there are these details from The Body Art Book : A Complete, Illustrated Guide to Tattoos, Piercings, and Other Body Modifications by Jean-Chris Miller:  "You’ll see little drops of blood emerge from the freshly tattooed spot. . . Once that dries and little blood bubbles have ceased rising to the surface, the artist may want to snap a few photos of your piece." Nice!

 

     But this commentary is the one that I want you to really pay attention to ... it is based on one of the most extensive works ever published on tattoos; Dr. W.D. Hambly’s, The History of Tattooing And It's Significance.  In it, Hambly concluded that, historically, tattooing had originated in connection with ancient rites of scarification and bloodletting which were associated with religious practices intended to put the human soul in harmony with supernatural forces and ensure continuity between this life and the next. 

 

 (PERSONAL NOTE:  A very dear friend of mine is a surgical nurse, and also a Christian.  She was greatly disturbed to enter a surgical suite and find an anesthetized patient with a tattoo around his neck that read, The gates of hell will welcome me.  Seems to back up Dr. Hambly's hypothesis, doesn't it?)

 

     Tattooing has obviously been a historic method through which humans sought to mix, or blend, or harmonize with "supernatural forces".  I can guarantee that the forces that responded were not from God!  And just because people in this age will tell you that these rituals are not their intention when they tattoo (they are just expressing themselves through body art), there is nevertheless a long and authentic association between this body modification and connecting with satanic forces.  And do you really think those "forces" won't take advantage of this generation's ignorance of what they are opening themselves up to? 

 

      Before I leave this subject, I must hint at one other concern I have about tattooing.  We must not forget that Satan has always been obsessed with changing the DNA of those of us made in the image of God.  That's what he tried to do in the Garden of Eden to keep Jesus's pure bloodline from existing.  In his excellent book, Exogenesis: Changing Men Into Monsters, author Steve Quayle introduces the first-hand knowledge of "Matthew", a former tattoo artist, who became a Christian opponent of body modification.  

 

     Here, in Matthew's own words, are a warning to those who applaud the art of tattooing:  "Most people don't know it, but tattooing is the perfect delivery system for introducing materials into the human body.  From this standpoint, tattooing is very much a DNA vaccine... the changes are "mutagenic", meaning the DNA is altered in some way..."

 

     I don't have room here to do an extensive essay on what I think are the dangers of tattooing.  But suffice it to say that the comparisons to ancient blood rituals, the possibility of connecting and associating with "Supernatural Forces", and the ability to incrementally alter one's DNA through repetitive tattoos, is enough to make me take God's warning seriously!  If my soul is in my blood, why would I want to imitate ancient rituals that sought to commune with demonic spirits, and expose my soul/blood to their influence? 

 And could this be the reason we see such drastic changes in personality and actions from celebrities who have embraced this latest "fashion trend" of heavily tattooing their bodies?  (Think Justin Bieber, for instance).  Regardless of whether you agree with me, or think that tattoos are just a harmless mode of self-expression, we must all be on guard against the "harmless" ways the Enemy infiltrates our culture and our personal lives.  Remember: he is "like a roaring lion who walks about seeking whom he may devour."
