You cannot Form a Utopia

The dictionary defines Utopia as “An ideally perfect place, especially in its social, political, and moral aspects.”  This is what the progressive left believes they can turn America into.  Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are two people that used to throw around that term in reference to President Obama’s immigration stance, his “dear colleague” letter regarding bathroom use and Obamacare.  The deep state which is responsible for the hundreds of thousands of regulations that choke the life out of America also seeks to form a utopia.  The hyper-litigated country is the cherry on top, suing everyone who does not comply with the utopia wishes.

There is a universal feeling, among the left, in Washington DC that if  certain people are forced to shut up and certain regulations are put in place then America will become a perfect place.  There will be no hate, no violence, no racism, no death, no pain, no poverty, no hunger and nothing bad will ever happen again.  This is a fantasy and anyone who believes it is truly high.

The reason a utopia cannot exist on earth is because people are totally depraved, evil people.  Nancy Pelosi has said many times that when people have to, people will always do the right thing?  Really, why does she think that.  The Progressive left believes that people are basically good.  All evil that is done is because of society or education or the economy or some external force that can be legislated against.  This is why we MUST find the motive for the Las Vegas shooter.  Once we find his motive, we can make regulations against it and prevent that from ever happening again.  It is unacceptable that the shooter just wanted to kill people, because good people don’t do that.  Well, there are no good people.

John Calvin took a bunch of Bible believing Christians to Geneva to form a utopia and it failed.  Pat Robertson tried to form a neighborhood of Christians who would buy into this utopia, somewhere in Virginia.  He did this in the 1980s, and of course it failed.  Even people who know what people have inside fail.  Even people who put God first, fail.  How can sinful, evil, selfish, godless politicians succeed in making a utopia?

There will be a time when a utopia exists.  That time will be at the end of time.  God will destroy the current heaven and earth and make a new one.  He will then put a huge Jerusalem city on the earth and Jesus will reign with godly people who followed him on earth.  There will be no Satan, no sin, nothing evil and a true utopia, ruled by Jesus Christ will remain forever.  Nancy Pelosi is not Jesus Christ and making rules against gun and rules about bathroom usage does nothing buy upset and annoy people.  That is what got Trump elected.  Putting people in a box of rules and regulations does nothing to create a utopia it just makes people angry.

Remembering the Franklin Day Planner

This week I have been rereading Hyrum Smith's book "The 10 Natural Laws of Productivity and Happiness." This book was written in the late 1980s and I remember reading it for the first time when I was working at Seagate Technologies, after my time in the Air Force. The core tool talked about in the book is the Franklin Day Planner . I remembering having one such planner, long before smart phones and Palm devices. Mine was a leather bound loose-leaf binder with calendar and note pages in it. I kept my daily tasks list and appointments in that binder, which became a record of my work history at Seagate and beyond. The Day Planner binders, pages and supplies were sold at a store called Franklin Quest , which was located at Valco Mall in Sunnyvale. At that time, I was a computer programmer. I was able to keep a record of all request for software, who made the request and when and what the requirements were. It seemed that I was the only one keeping a record of this b...

Thoughts on the Gap theory

The Bible is a closed book.  When God was done writing the Old Testament, he stopped until Matthew.  When he wrote Revelation, he stopped.  There are warnings in the Bible about adding or subtracting words from the Bible. Deuteronomy 4:2 & 12:32 and Revelation 22:18 are the three most specific.  The idea throughout the Bible is that this book is inspired Scripture and people have no right or authority to add to them or take away. This is why the Gap theory is so strange.  People probably feel it would be too obvious to add 16 extra chapters to Romans or Ephesians, so they try and sneak some extra stuff into Genesis.  That is the Gap Theory. The Gap Theory says that there is a space of time between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.  The space that some people insert is a couple of hundred years all the way up to billions of years.  The most popular use for the Gap Theory is to put the entire evolutionary process between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1...

Thoughts on the 2017 iPhones

Apple released the iPhone 8 a week or so ago.  Apple will release the iPhone X on November 3, 2017.  This is part of Apple’s current annual release of updated phones with better screens, more battery life and a better processor.  I bought my iPhone 7 plus on release day in September of 2016.  I went to the Apple store and bought it.  When thinking about whether I need to update my phone this year, I need to consider a few things. First, is my phone functional or did I break it?  My phone is in good working order.  The screen is not cracked, the non-existent home button still works.  Volume and power and silent switches work.  Mechanically the phone is in good shape.  It took the IOS 11 and IOS 11.01 updates without a problem. The next question is this:  what do I use my phone for and will a faster phone with a better screen help me do these things? Podcasts:  I listen to many podcasts on my phone.  I listen to a mix ...
