The Society of Phineas - One Year

It has officially been one calendar year since the first post has been written here. This is post #125. Two of those posts are from the previous iteration which had 47 posts total.

I would like to thank all who have read the things on this blog, and those who have linked my posts in their work, and those who have put this blog in their blogrolls. I would also like to thank those that have helped me along in the path of life that God has me on. Most of all, I’d like to thank God for the grace He has given despite the things I’ve done to offend Him. After all, I’ve been shown many times how insufficient I am of myself – it’s not my profane self but Christ through me. For:

And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth. But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. (Deuteronomy 8:17-18)

There wasn’t any point to link to top posts of the year or the like (since they’re still the same as calendar year), so in seeing this and this, I thought I’d go into the search terms for the blog. There’s not that many illogical ones for the whole year, because (I guess) my writing style is not that strange. But there’s a few:

christian femdom – this is more a learning thing than a weird one. I referred to the common state of feminist marriage (Marriage 2.0) using the phrase femdom. But I was mystified that I kept finding search hits on that phrase (169 of them to date). I had to search it and find out why…let’s just say…it’s a real thing. Don’t search it if you don’t want to know. What has been seen can not be unseen.
single christian men on facebook (4) – I guess some single Christian women trolling for dates?
images for sunshinemary (4) – anything you’re not telling us?
single mother of three seeks christian man (4) – uhmm…no thanks.
when men submit to women when they kick them (3) – evidently the reason that there are so many submissive beta/omega men is that women are kicking them?
best sex posistion for men for sataisfied the women (2) – sex tips at a single Christian’s blog?
two hand snake (2) – didn’t know snakes had hands.
bald heart submissive wife (2) – I didn’t know hearts could be bald? Do submissive wives have these?
hamster nude people on physical fitness equipment (2) – oooooookay?
what do forty year old sluts looking for (1) – a white-knight to ride in and rescue her Don’t you know you’re supposed to man up and marry the sluts?

The what I’m reading pile is pretty light since most of it has been reflected in posts already, but here’s some, fitting with the purpose of the blog:

Dalrock commenter Asher writes:

I think why so many Christians, of which you appear one, enjoy telling people they”re going to hell is that it is easy to do, whereas enacting political change is an enormous task. It’s easy to march against abortion because no real change is going to happen and it doesn’t really affect most churches – really how many of the women attending conservative churches have had abortions. On the other hand, how many female attendees of conservative churches have frivolously filed for divorce? Sin is sin, so why is the church trying to change the outside world when it doesn’t even police itself? Why isn’t the church fighting tooth and nail to protect fathers in the female-dominated family courts?

I would like to think I’ve grown in my writing as well as my focus over the year. As well, I know I’ve learned much in doing it, like the usual answer to most of the garbage I run across is “Nope”. The About page still stands as a testimony to how unfocused my mind was about this blog when I started it. I really need to rewrite it sometime. But this has always been the focus. To point out what needs to be heard and not what the proctors want to say. I pray that’s been done and will continue to be done as long as this blog is in operation.

The other thing I’ve realized ever more so is the value of freedom, be it in Christ and otherwise. The default state of man is slavery (the opposite of freedom), so it takes much effort to gain and maintain (freedom is work), admist the fear, self-doubt, and hostility of others (NSFW for language):

These are the Men that the feminine imperative is threatened by – a vanguard of men who are aware of their real value to women and society, and can make life impacting choices free from the influence of the imperative.

There are always people that love their yoke of slavery and will want you in the yoke of bondage. Men have devised many schemes to cause the enslavement of others, like feminISM. (H/T Donalgraeme)

Until next time, make every day Freedom Day!
