Said to be among one of the greatest Presidents of the United States, his life is one with several good lessons; the importance of continuously learning, the nothingness of life, the hindrance of goodwill through politics & several more; a life & history worth learning from

Back in the 1870s Otto von Bismarck coined a term that still resonates today, despite the fact that purists on both political sides hate it: realpolitik In December of 1941, a Congresswoman – the first ever – learned a lesson in realpolitik. In April of 1917 she had been among fifty US Representatives who felt that a US Declaration of War on Imperial Germany was a mistake and to be opposed. In retrospect and in the minds of many millions of Americans that day, she was right. But twenty-four years later, she would find herself as the ONLY US Congressperson, House or Senate*, to vote against declaring war on Imperial Japan after the attacks of December 7th. She would pay a personal price for her vote, including some merciless mockery for hiding in a closet after the vote and losing her seat permanently. Rankin claimed that it had been a vote of principle, stating that war is always wrong. Three days later, she would vote “Present” on a Declaration of War against two other countries that had not attacked the United States. She had learned the meaning of realpolitik. Too late, but she had learned it. Today, we watch as 1917 repeats itself. Nations are lining up against nations, some clearly the aggressor. Threats are made, promises are spouted. But what is the realpolitik? This time Congress itself will have almost no say in what happens. No stand, principled or otherwise, will take place. The President alone will decide whether or not your husbands, wives, father, mothers, sons and daughters will go to war against a nation that has not attacked us… *Fifty-five members of Congress were unable to vote as they were not present. All of them would make it clear that they supported the DoW and would have voted in favor of it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/plausibly-live/message

This program will compare and contrast the US Declaration of Independence, written in 1776, with the globalist Declaration of Interdependence that was written in 1975, anticipating the 200th anniversary of the signing of the US Declaration of Independence. There are numerous Declarations of Interdependence beginning at least since the 1930s, nearly all of which urge the end of national sovereignty and its replacement with global government. I will focus on the Declaration of Interdependence written in 1975 by Henry Steele Commager. The US Declaration of Independence states "that these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do." The Declaration of Interdependence states that "it is necessary for the people of The United States to declare their interdependence with the people of all nations"; that "now we must join with others to bring forth a new world order." The US Declaration of Independence concludes with the statement: "And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor." In other words, we rely on divine Providence (the protective care of God), not on anything else. The Declaration of Interdependence requires us to depend on other men, not on God. © Copyright 2021 Liberty and Posterity

Have you actually read the US Declaration of Independence? All of it? Well, you don't have to steal it to find out what it says, because I'll just read it to you!

Neil Mammen goes through the biblical principles of government, the US Declaration of Independence, and the history of the Church's involvement in politics.

1. God created men and women in His image, and on the 6th day he said it was very good. We are ALL human and should see each other as such and as equals       (Gen 1:27). God is also a creative God, so he made us diverse. Heaven will be a place filled from every nation, tribe, people and language (Rev 7:9). 2. But sin entered the world, and mankind developed pride, "I am better than you." Men and women looked at certain people groups and said, "You are not equal to us." Discrimination can be based on skin color, language, race, ethnicity, gender, faith, etc. (Biblical example of man's discrimination and systemic racism, Acts 10:9-16, Acts 15:1-19, God's warning not to call certain people unclean when God has made them clean,  which helped Peter to later speak against the Judaizers requiring Gentiles to be circumcised like Jewish Christians, to be qualified into faith) Historical and current example: US Declaration of Independence says "All men are created equal." But depends on how you define/translate "men". Racism: Black slaves were viewed as less of a man (3/5), in the US Constitution,  Plus women and children were not included in Declaration of Independence. Personal Story: Systemic racism exists today still, like for example in the form of  redlining.                                       3. Breaking down the wedge of Model Minority Myth, 4 Ways used by dominant culture to maintain power and privilege: exploitation, extermination, demonization, and assimilation. Assimilation is Cultural and Ethnic erasure. Adapting to dominant culture has benefits, but there's a dark side, like "self-hatred." The moment we try to be someone we are not, we are telling God and our ancestors, "You made a mistake." But God tells us we are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.‍ Big Idea: God is anti-racist, so we should be too, by loving our "neighbors", no matter what their color, because ALL are created in his image, fearfully and wonderfully made.  ‍ Applications for racial justice (from Bryan Stevenson, "Just Mercy"): proximate, change the narrative, keep the hope, do things that will be uncomfortable.

The US Declaration of Independence points to the right to pursue happiness. Many who do so never obtain happiness. What are the keys to true happiness?

We see how great speeches and peaceful protest marchers can make big changes in the world, particularly in America in the 1950s and 1960s. For images of the people and events we talk about, go to dadandmelovehistory.com Read industry reviews of Dad’s new World War II Asia-Pacific novel, The Slightest Chance, at paulletters.com. It’s now out on Kindle for US$6.99, as well as in paperback. So is Dad’s first wartime novel, A Chance Kill, a love-story/thriller based on real events in Poland, Paris, London and Prague. Here are some questions based on today’s episode: The US Declaration of Independence (1776) said “that all men are created …..” what? What does “segregation” mean? What did Rosa Parks do on 1 December, 1955? What happened when Elizabeth Eckford and 8 other black students tried to go to Little Rock high school in 1957? Dr Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” speech resulted in the passing of a 1964 law called the Civil Rights Act. That law made something illegal – what was it? What was the 1965 law called that finally allowed black people to vote? Please rate and review us wherever you get podcasts.

The US Declaration of Independence famously cites that “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” are unalienable rights. But is the pursuit of happiness even possible or does this goal actually make life increasingly miserable and liberty more elusive? Host Ross Ashcroft is joined by the sociologist and author, Dr Ashley Frawley, and researcher Dr Mark Horowitz to discuss the incessant striving for happiness instead of meaning.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is non intoxicating and is safe to use, yet it is heavily regulated, unnecessarily expensive, and there is much prejudice from lack of knowledge about this product. How it can become more easily accessible in New Zealand may be centred around whether it ends up becoming regulated as a food or as a medicine, and the results of the upcoming referendum. In this informative interview, Tadhg speaks in depth about this, the history of cannabis, the extensive uses of hemp, and  medical cannabis. Tadhg asks: Are you concerned about the state of the world? I am. Lord Rutherford, (atom splitter), said that "we don't have money, so we have to think". It's time that we did that, because the status quo is failing. So, what do we need, and how do we get it?  A wealthy society needs good food, fibre/chemical feedstock, and medicine.  Imagine getting all of that from one plant, and it all being of the best quality.  That's the kind of crop we need in a climate changing world, a sustainable competitor to the petro-chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Its curious to note, that despite Hemp offering us these gifts, it is that rare thing; a prohibited plant.   In NZ and much of the world, hemp is only able to be grown under strict conditions, and farmers usually struggle against hostile bureaucrats. In Canada, for example, farmers were prevented from selling fifty two billion dollars worth of hemp products over the last twenty years. The same practices exist here in NZ. But Hemp is so useful, that it was a crime not to grow it in both Britain and the USA. In fact, you could even pay US taxes in hemp. Hemp was as good as gold, and used to make everything from dollar bills to the US Declaration of Independence (both Washington and Jefferson were Hemp farmers). Hemp clothes are tougher and more breathable than cotton, and anti-bacterial too. (Hemp does not require the water and pesticides of cotton either). Hemp makes breathable fireproof building materials, superconductors, plastics, fuels, and produces four times the cellulose of pine in only six months. Hemp nut foods are better than anything else nutritionally. 30% digestible protein, all Omegas (3, 6, 9) and aminos, with Calcium, Magnesium and other essential elements in unusually generous quantities. Most Renaissance painting was done on hemp, and with hemp paint. empen paints, hemp plastics, hemp medicines, the basis of Imperial power for millennia, and then imagine it being prohibited on the irrational grounds that hemp is a dangerous narcotic that causes interracial rape and murder. The removal of this premier sustainable product left world markets open for the petro-chemical and pharmaceutical industries.  Despite written records of its medicinal use dating back 4,750 years, (including fifty years where it was a major European/US medicine), the modern medical system seems strangely opposed to the notion of hemp medicine. This is especially curious given that hemp is full of 'our bodies own medicine'. To clarify, Hemp contains molecules called 'cannabinoids', and so do we. In our body we make 'endocannabinoids' (endo means 'inside').  We are cellular beings, and for six hundred million years these molecules have been natures standard means for information exchange at the cellular level.  They are 'signalling metabolites', like essential little e-mails inside us. Without them, we cannot maintain normal function/health. Without them, we die. That's why hemp is connected with a ludicrous array of therapeutic effects. Not because it's a magic hippy thing, but because the plant contains analogues of the molecules we make and need to maintain 'homeostasis', or balance/normal function. So when we use hemp properly, as a food, we are supporting our bodies ability to maintain its own health through our cannabinoid system of G-Protein Coupled Receptors. Its interesting to note that GPCRs are 'highly responsive to nutrition', that medical schools do not teach nutrition, and that medical schools do not teach about GPCRs-despite them being our mechanism of health regulation and protection.  'Medical cannabis' is a bit of a swindle, because all we really need to improve health outcomes is to return hemp to the food web and markets.  You can see the impact non-advertised legal hemp flower has had on medicine sales in Italy here  https://www.york.ac.uk/media/economics/documents/hedg/workingpapers/1907.pdf Italian medicine sales are down everywhere, and by 11% in some categories. This is why. Here are seven of the 140+ plant cannabinoids, and their proven effects. Niccolo Machiavelli said that "there is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things. For the reformer has enemies in all those who profit by the old order." But we all know that the current order of things is destroying our habitat and creating an authoritarian corporate neo-feudalism. To change this we must increase our economic sovereignty and environmental sustainability. The premier natural resource for achieving this is industrial hemp, but to get it we must understand it and demand better from our politicians.

We live in a time when information is abundant as to how to be happy. Even the US Declaration of Independence offers "unalienable right" to happiness as guaranteed by it's government. And yet happiness can be elusive, as realized by any measure of today's level of happiness in the human race. So what gives? Happiness lies in being congruent with your soul's purpose and your own sovereignty. Yet we have been taught our soul is for matters not earthly and to fit in with the crowd keeps you safe and normal. And therein lies the rub-claiming your happiness, your right to happiness, will require you get uncomfortable, take risks, and be true to yourself first. Join me as I share wisdom from around the world on happiness and how to realize more of it in your life and in your relationships. Too many women settle for complaining about their unhappiness and blaming others for it as well. Tune in and learn how to avoid the trap I experience far too many women making in choosing their fears as more powerful than the grit and the grace they come endowed with as women.    

Dave Rael and Joe Macaluso discuss rights and come to an agreement on what rights are. The conversation uses healthcare as an example to explore what is and isn't a right and goes through many examples. Ultimately, the question whether citizens are slaves of the state is addressed with a thought exercise.

In this episode, we discuss recent announcements, and feature our interview with James Morrison, Secretary of the National Capital Tartan Day Committee. Mr. Morrison joins us to discuss the beginning of Tartan Day in the US, its ties to the Declaration of Arbroath, the US Declaration of Independence, and, of course, tartan. Could Jamie have really gotten dressed in the loft in time to stop Hamish from approaching Donas? What is this about tartan hidden in a Bible in 1747? Listen to find out.
