Our Corrupt American Society

Proverbs 19:22, “The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar.”

I am so sick and tired of seeing fraudulent commercials in American society. Social media, the internet and television are filled with lies! I was watching an excellent sermon today on Rumble titled: 'How Christians Should Respond To Civil Unrest,' and a commercial appeared which guarantees hair regrowth in just 90 days. 

Spartan Root Activator Shampoo claims to promote hair growth, but while some ingredients have limited research supporting their effectiveness, there are no comprehensive clinical studies proving the shampoo's overall efficacy. Additionally, concerns have been raised about some inactive ingredients that may be harmful, leading some experts to recommend caution. SOURCE

It angers me that such blatant fraudulent advertising is allowed to continue by the government, specially the department of Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Proverbs 19:22, “The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar.” We live in a culture of bold ungodly LIARS!

The Liars At 'Duck Duck Go' and Country Instruments

I typed “professional banjos” into an internet search engine. A professional banjo will cost you more than $5,000. The search engine returned dozens of websites recommending cheap banjos from China and similar low cost garbage. Take this website for example from Country Instruments, in which they recommend the Pyle banjo from Amazon for $189. This is junk! This is NOT a professional banjo, which is what I searched for. This is corruption!

It gets worse. The old adage is very true: Follow the money if you want to find the truth. At the bottom of the webpage on Country Instruments crappy recommendations, they post this disclaimer...

CountryInstruments.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. This means that some of our posts contain affiliate links and we may receive a commission if you click through and make a purchase. [emphasis added] SOURCE

So, every time an unsuspecting victim (the person who wanted a “professional banjo”) clicks on one of their links to Amazon, the dishonest scumbags at Country Instruments (and other unethical companies and individuals) get paid money. This is wickedness! It is fraud because I asked for a professional banjo, not bottom basement dwelling garbage from China. I HATE OUR CORRUPT AMERICAN CULTURE!!!

It is tragic when you as a consumer cannot sincerely search the internet for honest information. Instead, wicked people deliberately LIE to you in their ungodly greed for money. This unethical, dishonest and injurious sinful practice has gone unchecked for so long that it has become commonplace and accepted as the norm in American society. IT IS EVIL!

The Speculative Meaning Of Proverbs 19:22

What does our text Scripture passage mean? We know what “a poor man is better than a liar” means. That maxim is obvious, but the first part of the verse is obscure. I looked at BibleHub.com and was disgusted to see a dozen different meanings in a dozen different Bible revisions (talk about corruption in American society). Take a look at the many different conflicting meanings set forth in 18 different English Bible revisions...

New International Version
What a person desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar.

New Living Translation
Loyalty makes a person attractive. It is better to be poor than dishonest.

English Standard Version
What is desired in a man is steadfast love, and a poor man is better than a liar.

NET Bible

Good night in the morning! Well, which is it, loyalty, fidelity, desiring to be kind, a disgrace to be greedy, unfailing love, steadfast love, loving devotion, attractiveness or showing loyal love? THIS IS CORRUPTION! 2nd Corinthians 2:17, “For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” The truth is that ungodly sinners CHANGED God's inspired Word to obtain a legal copyright so they could sell and profit from their perverse work (Romans 1:25). Woe unto anyone who tampers with the inspired Holy Bible (Proverbs 30:5-6).

So, What Does Proverbs 19:22 Mean?

l consulted Pastor Brad Strand's 'The Strand Study Bible,' but he doesn't comment on this passage. Neither does Dr. Henry Morris comment on this passage in his 'The Henry Morris Study Bible.' I listened to Pastor Jack Hyles' part 16 in his Proverbs Wednesday evening Bible study, but he jumps from verse 20 to verse 26 in Proverbs chapter 19. I did find some helpful commentaries on Bible Hub (I highly recommend this website for your Bible study).

Proverbs 19:22, “The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar.” To be quite honest, I do not know what Solomon meant here, this is a deep saying. It could mean as some have suggested, that a poor man wants to give but he cannot because he is poor; but a rich man who could give doesn't because he lies about how much wealth he has. That is an interesting interpretation.

I simply chose this passage as my text because of the latter part of the verse, “a poor man is better than a liar.” I detest all these deceptive websites today who admittedly lie (as stated in their disclaimer) to trick people in an effort just to make money. Such unscrupulous practices should be illegal. It is better to be a poor person who wishes to do good, than a dishonest wealthy person who lies about one's intentions. This highlights the value of fearing God over mere financial gain. These shady advertisers do not fear God. Psalms 36:1, “The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.”

The same holds true for the vast thousands of useless health products (powders, pills and other gimmicks) which are peddled on the market. Scam companies intentionally sell you garbage that they fully know doesn't work, but they skirt legal liability by including the disclaimer on every product they sell that reads: “This product has not been tested, evaluated or approved by the FDA.” Again, such unscrupulous practices should be outlawed. They are shady dishonest sinners who bring the judgment of God upon themselves!

Someone has suggested that Proverbs 19:22 means a person's true kindness is measured by one's desire to help others, and it is better to be a poor person than a shifty greedy person who lies to increase wealth. This highlights the value of fearing God over mere financial gain.

In his helpful Bible commentary titled: 'The Complete Bible Commentary, Pastor George Williams says, “A little kindness received from a poor man is better than the false promises of a rich liar.” I like that interpretation.

I thought of another Scripture passage by Solomon's father, David, which might also shed some light on Proverbs 19:22. Psalms 37:21, “The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.” When I think of Solomon's statement that a poor man is better than a liar, I think of what David said that a wicked man borrows and does not paying it back. He is a liar! But a righteous man labors at his work, so that he can take his hard-earned wages and in kindness give to the needy.

1,200 Buried Bones Discovered Beneath Benjamin Franklin's Home

Hebrews 9:27-28, “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”

I found this disturbing article in Discover Magazine from March of 2023...

The 1,200 Buried Bones in the Benjamin Franklin House

A gruesome discovery in the Benjamin Franklin House has us wondering if Ben Franklin was a serial killer. Get the scientific context behind the findings.

For more than two centuries, hundreds of human bones have rested (in peace) under the London home of Benjamin Franklin — one of the founding fathers of the U.S. But the secret of these bones isn’t quite as horrific as you might suspect.

As it turns out, the son-in-law of Franklin’s landlady taught anatomy privately in the house, at a time when the new field of science was just taking off in England. But that doesn’t mean the bones were completely innocent: The practice of dissection wasn’t strictly legal back then.

Grim Discovery of the Ben Franklin Bodies

The bones were first discovered in the late 1990s, while the Craven Street home underwent conservation repairs. The museum staff called a coroner, says Marcia Balisciano, the director of the Benjamin Franklin House, a museum at the former residence of Franklin in the heart of London, but the latter quickly the determined the bones were more than a century old.

It wasn’t entirely surprising. “If you keep digging down in London, you can find anything — Roman remains, Viking remains or anything,” she says.

Researchers then excavated a small pit in what is now called the seminary room; back in Franklin’s day, however, it was simply a small space at the back of the house. The pit, one meter wide and one meter deep, revealed more than 1,200 bone fragments belonging to at least 15 individuals. READ MORE

TRUTH is truly stranger than fiction!

Do Not Trust Shady Companies: 'Yelp' And 'Trustpilot'

I am sick and tired of these shady websites and companies like Trustpilot and Yelp, who censure user content. You're not allowed to tell the truth about a company. Only upbeat kiss-ass reviews are permitted. I wish I could put these unethical companies out of business permanently!

I hate Trustpilot, Yelp and other shady websites that censor user content.

The Dark Side of Trustpilot - Can It Really Be Trusted?

Hell no, you cannot trust Trustpilot. On the 'Choice Community' website, they expose the corruptness of Trustpilot's bogus and unfair review process. ...

On Trustpilot, If you go through Youi insurance you will see thousands of reviews. That on the surface gives it a great trust pilot rating. But if you look most are single person reviewers giving a 5* rating for the amazing experience they had. That drown out lots of single star reviews complaining about the poor level of service when they try to make a claim. 

SOURCE: https://choice.community/t/trust-pilot-is-not-to-be-trusted/28967

Only a fool would trust Trustpilot or Yelp for accurate reviews.

The following negative review I posted of Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola was buried by Yelp in September of 2024. Unless you go diligently searching for my review, you won't see it. And worse, Yelp refused to include my review in its ratings. If they were honest, Smyrna Baptist Church's rating should have dropped a star, but Yelp are dishonest people. Ironically, if you go to Yelp and search for 'Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola,' you'll see my photo (of me holding a Deering Golden Wreath banjo). Yelp is using my photo, but refuses to post my review with the other posts, because they didn't like what I wrote. Read my post for yourself...

I DO NOT recommend this church. The Pastor woefully lacks personal concern and compassion for people. I attended the church for several months but the senior pastor never welcomed me. When I shared my broken life with him, he never offered to pray with me. He didn't care. The senior pastor has denim without lace, strength without beauty, toughness without love.

I believe the church is always 85% empty because of their bad attitudes and the horrible way that they mistreat people. When I kindly asked for some water to drink at their Memorial Day movie, the pastor's wife rudely asked me why didn't I get something to drink outside at their earlier picnic. I almost walked out the door. It matters how you treat people.

I am so hurt, disgusted and disappointed with their senior pastor. I DO NOT recommend this horrible place to anybody, unless you want to play church three times a week, and be part of a superficial cult that preaches Lordship Salvation. The church uses Chick Tracts which pervert the true meaning of repentance, requiring you to be willing to forsake sinful bad habits to go to Heaven. That is not a free grace Gospel.

People just want to be loved. The way that you treat people matters, it really does. Positions are temporary, ranks and titles are limited, but the way you treat people will always be remembered.

Also, the Smyrna church auditorium literally smells like a cheap musty hotel. It was offensive to my nose. I don't know if it is the carpeting or what, but it smells bad. My nose did adjust to it some over time, but the smell didn't go away. First impressions are lasting impressions.

RUN from Smyrna Baptist Church!

Thank you for reading.

Dear reader, there is absolutely nothing wrong with my negative review of that crappy church cult. Yelp are in cahoots with bad businesses and bad churches, protecting them instead of posting honest reviews! Why the hell is my banjo photo still there on Yelp, since they refuse to allow my post? Unreal. These ungodly people are incompetent! They're like irresponsible children at Yelp and Trustpilot.

Today, December 23, 2025, I tried to post my honest review of Cox, but Trustpilot rejected my post because the content offended them. I didn't think to save the post, but it essentially said that I am offended COX is airing 100% Spanish commercials in the United States where we officially speak English! Trustpilot emailed me to say that they couldn't post my review because it violated their sensitivity policy to minority groups. WTF?

According to DuckDuckGo's Search Assistant when I searched for “COX reviews,” it reads:

Cox Communications has received numerous negative reviews from customers, often citing poor customer service, unexpected charges, and billing issues. Many users express frustration with the company's service reliability and communication.

That's all besides the point, this blog is about Yelp and Trustpilot, which I DO NOT recommend to anyone!!! I hate these shady, unethical and dishonest companies who censor the truth about bad companies and churches. I am greatly offended as a natural-born American consumer that COX airs their damn commercials in 100% Spanish, so that as an American I cannot understand a word of it. That really offends me and I have every right to be upset with COX and YouTube for permitting it! Truly, the LOVE OF MONEY is the root of all evil as the inspired Holy Bible warns in 1st Timothy 6:10-11. SHAME on Trustpilot for rejecting my honest post about COX as a consumer. I am now giving Trustpilot a bunch of negative reviews as well!

Shame On Cox For Their 100% Spanish Commercials On YouTube

As an English-speaking natural born American citizen since 1967, I find it highly offensive, despicable and insulting that Cox continues to air commercials in 100% Spanish language on YouTube instead of English. This is disturbing!

Cox should be fined and put out of business as far as I am concerned. This is the United States, not Mexico! In my humble opinion Cox is clearly catering to the 60,000,000 plus illegal immigrants (criminals) who've slithered illegally into our country over the past 50 years.

We speak English in the United States!

I am full supportive of President Donald Trump's diligent efforts through I.C.E. to deport every illegal immigrant from the United States. The sooner the better and it is about time; long overdue in fact. This is OUR country, not theirs! GET OUT AND STAY OUT!!!

Canada Sets New Record Killing 16,499 People By Euthanasia In 2024

Deuteronomy 32:39, “See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.”

It was reported in the news this week that tens of thousands of their citizens are committing doctor-assisted suicide. This is so tragic and sad. What's even more alarming is that many of the folks being killed aren't even sick or dying, they're just depressed...

Canada Sets New Record, Killing 16,499 People by Euthanasia – Disabled Citizens Feel 'Threatened'

Christian Broadcasting Network | December 5, 2025 

As Canada approaches its 10-year mark of practicing legalized assisted suicide, a new government report finds that the country has hit a new record of euthanasia deaths.

Health Canada's Sixth Annual Report on Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) report reveals that a total of 16,499 people were put to death by euthanasia in 2024 – that is 1 in 20 deaths, according to some estimates.

Although the largest increase in MAID participation was from 2019 to 2020 by 36.8%, there was yet another 6.9% increase from 2023 to 2024. The report claims that the number of "annual MAID provisions is beginning to stabilize. However, it will take several more years before long-term trends can be conclusively identified."

Striking an upbeat tone about the killings, Canada's Minister of Health, Marjorie Michel, said, "I am pleased to share Health Canada's Sixth Annual Report on Medical Assistance in Dying." She claimed that the program ensures that "the federal legal framework protects those who are vulnerable, while supporting freedom of choice and personal autonomy."

While the report attempts to spin euthanasia as positive, some of its data reveal the grim nature of the federal program.

Nearly one-fifth of the 23,000 people who requested MAID, had a "grievous and irremediable medical condition," such as diabetes, autoimmune conditions, and chronic pain, and were denied assisted suicide.

But about 4% of people who were approved for assisted suicide did not have a terminal diagnosis or reasonably foreseeable death.

Nearly 23% of people overall reported "isolation or loneliness" as a reason for seeking euthanasia. Medical practitioners reported that about 50% of people requested it because of being a "perceived burden on family, friends, or caregivers."

What saith the Scripture? Exodus 20:13, “Thou shalt not kill.” The Liberal Party of Canada is a danger to the world.

That is disturbing indeed. God only knows where this crazy world is headed next.

Thank God For Truth-Tellers Like John Coleman

Genesis 8:22, “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”

"I have studied this topic seriously for years. It has become a political and environment agenda item, but the science is not valid." —John Stewart Coleman (1934-2018), Meteorologist Scientist

CLIMATE CHANGE IS NOT MANMADE!!! I fully agree with John Stewart Coleman (1934-2018) that Global Warming is an elaborate hoax. But his opinion is the one that you should listen to, because John was a bonafide scientist, I am not. John called Climate Change, 'The Greatest Scam In History.' Please watch this intriguing video interview in which John Coleman admirably puts the naïve CNN reporter in his place! ...

John Coleman Founder of The Weather Channel DESTROYS Brian Stelter and CNN on 'Climate Change' Fraud

I love that video! As John points out, Climate Change is a politically motivated agenda of the Democrats! They are so desperately grasping at straws to find ways to support their farce that they're actually citing 'cow farts' and 'cow belching' as a major cause of Global Warming. I'd say that no one could make this stuff up, but that's exactly what THEY DID!!! ...

Cow flatulence, along with belching, contributes significantly to methane emissions, a potent greenhouse gas that is much more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide. Livestock, particularly cattle, are responsible for a substantial portion of human-related methane emissions, which play a role in climate change. READ MORE

Dear reader, I feel sorry for you if you're gullible enough to believe that cow farts and burps are a threat to our planet. Here are some memes to make you think.

People are so ignorant, dumb and easily fooled. Their real agenda is the destruction of the traditional family. They want your government to become your God. That is why the blatant lie of Evolution is taught to children, to destroy the truthful concept of God.

Weather Channel boss calls global warming 'the greatest scam in history'

By Our Foreign Staff - November 9, 2007

The founder of the The Weather Channel in the U.S. has described the concept of global warming as 'the greatest scam in history' and accused global media of colluding with 'environmental extremists' to alarm the public. READ MORE

I love this quote from John Coleman...

"I have studied this topic seriously for years. It has become a political and environment agenda item, but the science is not valid." —John Stewart Coleman (1934-2018), Meteorologist Scientist

The Library of Medicine published this helpful pertinent information...

Many climate change scientists do not agree that global warming is happening 

by Gregory Gardner 

Editor—The apocalyptic tone that Smith adopted in relation to the environment bears little relation to reality.1 In his editorial Smith asserts, “virtually all scientists agree that global warming is happening.” Global warming is now joining the list of “what everyone knows.”

Whether most scientists outside climatology believe that global warming is happening is less relevant than whether the climatologists do. A letter signed by over 50 leading members of the American Meteorological Society warned about the policies promoted by environmental pressure groups. “The policy initiatives derive from highly uncertain scientific theories. They are based on the unsupported assumption that catastrophic global warming follows from the burning of fossil fuel and requires immediate action. We do not agree.”2 

Those who have signed the letter represent the overwhelming majority of climate change scientists in the United States, of whom there are about 60. McMichael and Haines quote the 1995 report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which is widely believed to “prove” that climate change induced by humans has occurred.3 

The original draft document did not say this. What happened was that the policymakers’ summary (which became the “take home message” for politicians) altered the conclusions of the scientists. This led Dr Frederick Seitz, former head of the United States National Academy of Sciences, to write, “In more than sixty years as a member of the American scientific community ... I have never witnessed a more disturbing corruption of the peer-review process than the events that led to this IPCC report.”4 

Policymaking should be guided by proved fact, not speculation. Most members of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change believe that current climate models do not accurately portray the atmosphere-ocean system. Measurements made by means of satellites show no global warming but a cooling of 0.13°C between 1979 and 1994.5 

Furthermore, since the theory of global warming assumes maximum warming at the poles, why have average temperatures in the Arctic dropped by 0.88°C over the past 50 years?5 READ MORE

There you have it, right from the mouths of the Climate Scientists themselves! Global Warming is a massive hoax! It's an elaborate scheme intended to control society, just like the homosexual agenda. Listen to Senator Ted Cruz' noble father, Pastor Raphael Cruz, tell the disturbing TRUTH about the evils of Communism and teaching the fraud of Evolution in public schools, and why the government strongly pushes a homosexual agenda to control people.

The American people are being played like a violin.

The Federal Reserve Is The Root Cause Of Poverty

Ecclesiastes 5:8, “If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they.”

The Secret Meeting at Jekyll Island:
How the Federal Reserve Was Really Created

The reason why Americans need S.N.A.P., EBT, WIC and other welfare handout programs is because of the criminal Federal Reserve fraud since 1913. We have a very shady and dishonest banking system in our nation, whose private criminal owners arbitrarily sets the value of our currency. In the end, just like the wicked casinos in Las Vegas, the house ALWAYS wins!

Federal Reserve Caused 'THE GREAT DEPRESSION'

President John F. Kennedy was assassinated after trying to shut down the Federal Reserve. The criminals behind the sinister Federal Reserve banks are evil beyond imagination!

“From now on, depressions will be scientifically created.” —Congressman Charles A. Lindbergh Sr. , 1913

Originally money was backed by gold and silver, so that you could literally trade your paper currency for grains of gold or silver. That ended with President Nixon. Even coins today from the Roman Empire still hold value due to their metallurgic content. It actually costs 4 cents today to manufacture a single penny, and 14 cents per nickel. Go figure! President Trump is trying to get rid of pennies.

How Central Banks Cause Income Inequality

Our economy will ultimately implode, and there will be riots in the street. I cannot help but wonder if President Trump's militarization of America's cities over alleged illegal aliens, is actually the elite's secret way of preparing a Police State to handle the future public uprising (riots and mayhem) when prices continue to rise, ribeye costs $50 per pound, milk costs $10 a gallon, and people can no longer afford to survive?

“I sincerely believe ... that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity under the name of funding is but swindling futurity on a large scale.” —President Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1816

Approximately 38 million Americans lived at or below the poverty level in 2021, which is about 11.6% of the population. Additionally, many more are considered near poverty, with incomes less than twice the poverty threshold, indicating a significant number of people facing economic insecurity.

“The high office of the President has been used to foment a plot to destroy the American's freedom and before I leave office, I must inform the citizens of this plight.” —President John Fitzgerald Kennedy - In a speech made to Columbia University on Nov. 12, 1963, ten days before his assassination!

President Abraham Lincoln warned the American people about the evil banking cartel, which is the likely reason that the Banksters assassinated President Lincoln...

“The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace, and conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. 

Corporations have been enthroned, an era of corruption will follow and the money power of the country will endeavor and prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people, until the wealth is aggregated into a few hands and the republic is destroyed.” —U.S. President Abraham Lincoln; November 21, 1864

Add to that the evils of deliberate DEINDUSTRIALIZATION and ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTION for the past 50 years stealing American jobs, and you have a disaster in the making! I don't see housing (already significantly limited) coming down in price any time soon. This just means a lot more homelessness and communism (Karl Marx summed up communism with one statement: 'Abolition of private property').

“Most Americans have no real understanding of the operation of the international money lenders. The accounts of the Federal Reserve System have never been audited. It operates outside the control of Congress and manipulates the credit of the United States.” —Senator Barry Goldwater (Republican representative from Arizona)

It's not a mere phenomena that tens of millions of Americans are literally just one paycheck away from becoming homeless, to join the millions already surviving on the streets and sleeping in their vehicles. Bad times are ahead. The handwriting is on the wall. The POLICE STATE is here!
