2020 C8 Corvette Convertible To Begin Production on February 10th
For those of you waiting for the convertible model of the all new C8 Corvette, you're in luck. Production is rumored to being February 10th, 2020.
The 2020 C8 Corvette Stingray Convertible will be revealed officially on October 2nd, and that's when we'll learn more about pricing, options, and all of the inner and outer workings of the spyder style convertible. You can expect ordering details will be announced soon after the reveal.
With the C8 Corvette being wildly popular a new rumor seems to be popping up daily and the latest is that the 2020 Corvette Stingray Convertible could start production as early as February 10th. This date hasn't yet been confirmed as of now but this date has been tossed around a lot over a few different places including the Corvette Forums. Many of the rumors that were found there prior to the C8 Corvettes reveal ended up being accurate so there's no reason to discount this one yet.
Many of you out there waiting with baited breath for your chance at owning a C8 Corvette may still be worried about the UAW strike that could possibly be affecting C8 delivery times. While this could be a valid concern, it doesn't stop the rumor mill from spinning, nor does it stop actual leaks from leaking. The C8 Corvette news is going to continue regardless of the situation with GM and the union workers. I, personally, don't think the strike will impact the arrival date of anyone's C8 Corvette due to the fact that production isn't supposed to start on the coupe until December and it's likely that GM will have that situation figured out by then.
The February 10th start date seems to fit with GM's plan of slowly ramping up production that will have the Corvette assembly plant adding two or three colors and a few other options with each ordering period until they are fully up to speed. We could then see the convertibles being added to the mix due to the plant reaching its maturity and operating more efficiently.
2020 C8 Corvette Performance Talk
As we talked about in a previous story, GM has sent at least one test car over to Motor Trend to put through its paces and specifically show the launch control and most recently a burnout mode. GM supposedly has a embargo on Motor Trend until the November time frame which means we won't really get a lot of information from them until after that point, but after that date, we're all in for a treat. The fact that we are only about a month away from a tidal wave of actual third party data on this car is amazing. Now with the talk of the C8 Corvette convertible beginning production a month after the coupe does, it likely means we'll be receiving a lot of information about it right after it's reveal on October 2nd.
As I'm sure all of you know by now the C8 Corvette has some pretty impressive specs and while the convertible model typically forgoes some of the more track worthy specs to have the drop top option, it's still likely to be quite the performer itself. The C8 Corvette is going to be breaking records left and right but the fact that it's still going to have a targa top and a convertible option while offering 3 second 0-60 times is just insane. We are living in amazing times, folks.

KOO AND SELFHELP SENIOR CENTER HOLD CANDLELIGHT VIGIL ON ANNIVERSARY OF DEATH OF VINCENT C. TSE
Flushing, NY – City Council Member Peter Koo Friday hosted a candlelight vigil with friends and family of Vincent C. Tse in remembrance of his service to the Flushing community.
Mr. Tse was a family man, a beloved community advocate, and a man of faith, who volunteered for seven years as a cook at the SelfHelp Benjamin Rosenthal Senior Center without ever taking a day off. In July 2016, Vincent Tse was involved in a minor fender bender in Flushing during which he was assaulted and killed in fit of road rage. He was 68-years-old.
Today, community members came together one year after his death to remember the man who gave so much to his community with a candlelight vigil and prayer service from Tse's pastor at Boon Church in Flushing.
Council Member Peter Koo stated, "To this day, the absence of Vincent in the halls of Selfhelp Benjamin Rosenthal Senior Center is apparent to his friends who had become so accustomed to his friendship. Likewise, his family continues to mourn his loss, and we gather this evening, one year after his death, to remember the man who brought so much joy to our community through his compassion and love."
Congresswoman Grace Meng stated, "A year after Vincent was viciously assaulted and taken from us, we continue to mourn his passing, and remember his wonderful life and the contributions and service he provided at the Rosenthal Selfhelp Senior Center. Vincent was a peaceful man who worked hard preparing and serving food, and thoroughly enjoyed serving others. He did not deserve the brutal attack that put him in a comma, and ultimately ended his life. Our hearts continue to go out to Vincent's family and friends and they remain in our thoughts and prayers. We must continue to stand in solidarity against this type of heinous violence, and ensure that justice is served against those who commit these violent acts."
Senator Toby Stavisky stated, "This tragic case demonstrates the dangers of road rage and how a mild inconvenience can turn into a senseless killing. However, we must remember Vincent Tse not for the way he died, but the way he lived. Mr. Tse was a long-time volunteer at the Selfhelp Senior Center who did so much for so many people. He made a point to give back to the neighborhood he so loved and taught us all of the importance of helping. I see him as a role model for us all. I offer my thoughts and prayers to the family and friends of Vincent Tse who suffered such a tremendous loss."
Assemblywoman Nily Rozic stated, "A year after his tragic passing, Vincent Chun Man Tse is greatly missed by his family and the Selfhelp community. He was a shining example of what it means to live a life of service to others while looking out for your neighbors. The Tse family will always find support in the Flushing community."
Karlin Chan, family spokesperson, stated, "Vincent Tse was taken from his family, friends, and community a year ago but he is not forgotten. Many of the emotional scars remain. Though gone, he lives on fondly in the memories of his family, friends and the people he touched."
Jane Qiu, Director of Selfhelp's Benjamin Rosenthal Prince Street Innovative Senior Center, stated, "Vincent was a peaceful man who enjoyed serving others. A year later, his presence at the senior center and throughout our community is still sorely missed, and our members continue to mourn his loss. Through our center's volunteer efforts, we honor Vincent's memory and life. I'd like to thank Council Member Peter Koo and our local elected officials for their continued support and for marking this day with us."

Trace3 and Technologent honored for using F5 technologies to overcome organizations' IT challenges
SAN FRANCISCO—F5 Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIV) today announced the winners of the 2013 F5 Agility Awards, celebrating partners in the Americas region that have demonstrated creativity, business value, and innovation with F5® solutions. This year's winners are Trace3 and Technologent. The awards were announced during this week's Agility event, an annual conference focused on F5 customers and partners.
"Trace3 and Technologent earned this recognition by helping customers use F5's technologies to get the most out of the applications and IT environments they depend on—in the data center, the cloud, and everywhere in between," said Dave Feringa, EVP of Worldwide Sales at F5. "With an established channel partner ecosystem, F5 offers physical and virtual solutions on a powerful application delivery platform. Together, F5 and sales partners help customers scale, optimize, and protect their infrastructures intelligently, and uncover the benefits of emerging technologies like SDN."
2013 F5 Agility Award Winners
Trace3
Trace3 is a consultancy and technology solutions provider that specializes in solutions designed to reduce complexity within the IT infrastructure by simplifying data management, maximizing virtualization, and accelerating the network. As an example of Trace3's work with F5, the company architected a custom infrastructure solution for MINDBODY, a leading cloud-based software provider focused on the health, wellness, and beauty industries.
MINDBODY's business challenge was to replace its existing data center with co-located infrastructure to better support the company's growth rate of approximately 1,000 new customers per month. Trace3 leveraged F5's technology partnership with NetApp to provide MINDBODY with a solution integrating F5's VIPRION® application delivery and security services with the FlexPod data center and storage platform. The solution is expected to help MINDBODY reduce OpEx costs by 25 percent and see complete ROI by the end of this year. In addition, the solution has decreased application page load times by 40 percent and seen RTO reduced from 24 hours to 30 minutes.
"To move the project forward, we first needed to show MINDBODY a reference architecture they could have confidence in," said Timothy Abbott, Executive General Manager at Trace3. "The customer's availability, security, and cost requirements made this a perfect fit for F5. As a member of F5's GUARDIAN program and holder of more than 20 F5 certifications, we knew we could easily work in sync with their professional services team to get the job done right for the customer."
Technologent
Technologent is a leading IT solution provider focused on enterprise-class infrastructure and data center solutions designed to help clients support their business strategy and propel growth. Technologent has a strong working relationship with F5, evidenced by a Fortune 500 organization's recent project to optimize an SAP application deployment and ensure secure access capabilities. In addition, the solution needed to support all existing features of the Microsoft Threat Management Gateway (TMG) product, which announced end of life last year.
The project successfully replaced TMG servers, Cisco ACE, and Cisco CSS technologies with a consolidated access and security solution from F5. Combining F5's VIPRION hardware with the company's BIG-IP® Local Traffic Manager™, Access Policy Manager®, and Application Security Manager™ products resulted in significantly improved performance of the organization's business-critical SAP application, as well as enhanced application security.
"Being able to consolidate services like caching and compression to better support the customer's SAP deployment was a huge win," said Marco Mohajer, EVP, Sales and Marketing at Technologent. "With F5's unified application delivery platform and time-saving iApps® templates, the Fortune 500 company was able to quickly optimize application performance and reduce the amount of manual configurations required. In addition, the customer is in a great position to update and tailor their application delivery preferences | [

Yarali: History and Rumors
From The World of Layonara
Once a popular and respectable fishing town, Yarali was renowned for its luxurious imports and its stunning white cliffs, which could be spotted way out at sea. Private traders often made for the easily recognizable landmark, stopping a few days in the port and unloading some of the finer things they had collected from around the islands'things which seldom made their way to the rest of Bilkan.
A curious, yearly event was the migratory trek of the crabs across Yarali. Once per year, the crabs would swarm from the sea at the northern end and march relentlessly through the village of Yarali, eventually reaching a cove by the Woods of Tranquility where they would lay their young. This had become a yearly festival of sorts amongst the villagers. This however, like many things, all changed with the coming of Blood's armies.
The tale of Yarali is now a tragic one. Unlike most other locations on Tilmar where Blood's forces arrived and attacked until all people bowed into submission and then moved to the next town, in Yarali, they stayed and fortified.
The villagers were turned into slaves with the surviving males chopping trees and building boats under torturous supervision and the females working in the fields, foraging for food to feed the troops, or worse, given as play things to Blood's more higher ranking officers. More and more, villagers went missing or were slain on the spot as examples to the others for crimes no worse than stealing food or attempting escape. Sleeper's Isle, where the village had long buried their dead, now had ceremonies almost daily.
On the final day, when Blood's forces finally fell and the island was liberated, the outcome was not so sweet for the remaining people of Yarali. The village was practically burned to the ground, and many of the remaining villagers were slain randomly by Blood's troops in fits of rage. Those who survived did so by fleeing to the beaches and by hiding in the many caves. When the smoke from their burned village had cleared the air, the remaining villagers of Yarali crept back up to their smoldering homes. With heavy hearts, they began moving the bodies of their fallen friends to Sleeper's Isle.
Yet, as a testament to the strength and resilience of the Bilkanese people, once the last of the dead had been buried, and the last scorched building finally tumbled to the ground, a tear streaked Marsha Availie clambered to a clear spot in the village. She slowly began dragging planks of wood over to the area, arranging them carefully on the floor. The villagers watched, feeling lost and in despair.
"What are you doing, Marsha?" One asked quietly. With a shaking hand, she reached for some nails and a hammer on the floor. She stood with a determined smile as tears flooded her cheeks.
"I'm rebuilding my house." And she proceeded to hammer two planks of wood together with obvious awkwardness. One by one, the last of the villagers of Yarali approached her, dragging wood and hammers and nails with them. By the time the sun set, one small, hastily built hut stood in Yarali with the survivors all huddled in it for the night.
It was slow going, but filled with determination, the survivors slowly began rebuilding Yarali, even though their numbers were few. Unfortunately, no respite came for the people. With their numbers dwindled, a tribe of goblins that roamed the cove and would normally have let them be, now made attacks on the struggling village, stealing what they could. Troops had been sent to deal with this problem and assist the villagers; however, with the sudden declaration of war from the Telish Throne, they were immediately sent back to the border, leaving the Yarali villagers to once again cope on their own. Recent reports from the village indicate they are surviving, but just barely. There is a great respect for all survivors of the Yarali onslaught and a deep sympathy for the things they had to endure. Help is far from coming though.

THE MILLENNIAL HARBINGER.
NO. VI.
Bethany, Va. August 5, 1833.
"I create New Heavens and a New Earth." Is. lxv. 18:
"Behold I make all things New." Rev. xxi. 5.
WE intend an essay full of "the seeds of things." The topic is a common one, a familiar one, and yet it is an interesting one. Much has been said, much has been written upon it; and yet it is no better understood than it ought to be. Few give themselves the trouble of thinking much on the things which they think they understand; and many would rather follow the thoughts of others, than think for themselves. Suspense is painful, much study is a weariness of the flesh; and therefore, the majority are content with the views and opinions handed to them from those who have gone before.
We wish to treat this subject as if it were a new one; and to examine it now, as if we had never examined it before. It is worthy of it. Generation is full of wonders, for it is full of God's physical grandeur; yet regeneration is still more admirable, for in it the moral attributes of Jehovah are displayed. But we aim not at a development of its wonders, but at a plain, common-sense, scriptural exposition of its import.
We have not learned our theology from Athanasius, nor our morality from Seneca; and therefore we shall not call upon them for illustration, argument, or proof. To the Sacred Records, in which alone Christianity yet remains in all its freshness, we look for light; and thither would we direct the eyes of our readers. It is not the regeneration of the schools, in which Christianity has been lowered, misapprehended, obscured, and adulterated, of which we are to write; but that regeneration of which Jesus spoke, and the Apostles wrote. [337]
A few things must be premised--a few general views expressed, before we, or our readers, are prepared for the more minute details; And to approach the subject with all unceremonious despatch, we observe, that--
Man unregenerate is ruined in body, soul, and spirit; a frail and mortal creature. From Adam his father he inherits a shattered constitution. He is the child of a fallen progenitor; a scion from a degenerate stock.
Superior to Adam, the exile from Eden, in physical, intellectual, and moral nature, none of his descendants can rise. It is not in nature to improve itself; for above its fountain the stream cannot rise. Cain, the firstborn of Eve, was in nature the image and likeness of him that begat him.

kingdom of heaven, was set up on earth: and this, therefore, first of all, demands our attention.
Before we attempt an answer in detail to the question, How is this moral regeneration effected? we shall attend to the principle on which the whole remedial system proceeds. The grand principle, or means which God has adopted for the accomplishment of this moral regeneration, is the full demonstration and proof of a single preposition addressed to the reason of man. This sublime proposition is, THAT GOD IS LOVE.
The reason and wisdom of this procedure will suggest itself to every one who can understand the views and feelings Of all unregenerated men. Man, in a state of alienation and rebellion, naturally suspects, that if he be a sinner, and if God hate sin, he must hate [338] him. As love begets love, so hatred begets hatred; and if a sinner suspects that God hates him, he cannot love God. He must know that God loves him, before he can begin to love God. "We [says an Apostle] love God because he first loved us." While alienated in heart, through the native darkness of his understanding, the sinner misinterprets every restraint which God has placed in his way to prevent his total ruin, as indications of the wrath of heaven. His transgression of these restraints, and his consciousness of having defied the veracity and power of God, only increase his enmity, and urge him onward in his apostacy and wanderings from his creator. The goodness of God, being misunderstood, furnishes to him no incentive to repentance and reformation. Guilt and fear, and shame, the fruits of his apostacy, becloud his understanding, and veil from his eye all the demonstrations of benevolence and goodness with which the creation abounds, Adam under a tree, hiding from God, trembling with fear, suspicious of the movements of every leaf, and covered with shame as with a garment, is both an illustration and proof of these views of the state of mind which obtains in the unregenerate.
Neither the volume of creation, nor that of God's providence, is sufficient to remove from the natural man these misconceptions, and the consequent alienation of heart. The best proof that these two volumes cannot do this, is, that they never have, in any one instance, yet done it. From the nature of things it is indeed evident that they cannot do it. The elements are too often at war with the happiness of man. The ever-changing attitude of the natural world in reference to health, and life, and comfort, render it at best doubtful, whether the laws of nature, which ultimately bring man down to the grave, are the effect of benevolence, or of malevolence towards mankind. A third volume, explanatory of both, and replete also with supernatural developments, is wanting, to furnish the most diligent student of nature and providence, with the means of learning the true and full character of him against whom we have rebelled.
That volume is the Bible. Holy Prophets and Apostles spake as they were moved by the Spirit of Knowledge and Revelation. Its records, its history, its prophecy, its precepts, its laws, its ordinances, and its examples, all develope and reveal God to man, and man to himself.
But it is in the person and mission of the INCARNATE WORD that we learn that God is love. That God gave his Son for us, and yet gives his Spirit to us,--and thus gives us himself--are the mysteries and transcendent proofs of the most august proposition in the universe. The gospel, Heaven's wisdom and power combined, God's Own expedient for the renovation of human nature, is no more nor less, than the illustration and proof of this regenerating proposition.
Thus we hasten to our subject. Having glanced at the great landmarks of the plantations of nature and grace, now that we may, in the light of truth, ascertain the true and heaven-taught doctrine of regeneration, we shall cautiously survey the whole process as [339] developed by the commissioned teachers of the deep counsels of the only true God.
That certain things, parts of this great process, may be well understood, certain terms which we are wont to use to represent them, must be well defined, and accurately apprehended. These terms are Fact, Testimony, Faith, Repentance, Reformation | [

, Bath of Regeneration, New Birth, Renewing of the Holy Spirit, Newness of Life.
"All things are of God" in the regeneration of man, is our motto; because our Apostle affirmed this as a cardinal truth. He is the author of the facts, and of the testimony which declares them; and being the author of these, he is the author of all the effects produced by these facts. The Christian is a new creation,of which God is the Creator. The change of heart and of character, which constitute moral regeneration, is the legitimate impression of the facts, or things which God has wrought. The facts constitute the moral seal which stamps the image of God upon man. In the natural order we must place them first, and therefore we must first define the term.
Fact.
Fact means something done. The term deed, so common in the reign of James the First, is equivalent to our term fact. Truth and fact, though often confounded, are not the same. All facts are truths, but all truths are not facts. That God exists, is a truth, but not a fact; that he created the heavens and the earth, is a fact and a truth. That Paul was the Apostle of the Gentiles, is a truth, but not a fact; and that he preached Christ to the Gentiles, is both a fact and a truth. The simple agreement of the terms of any proposition with the subject of that proposition, or the representation of any thing as it exists, is a truth. But something must be done, acted, or effected, before we have a fact. There are many things in religion, morals, politics, and general science, which are not facts; but these are all but the correspondence of words and ideas with the things of which they treat.
Facts have a power which simple truth has not; and, therefore, we say, that facts are stubborn things. They are things, not words. The power of any fact, is the meaning; and therefore the measure of its power is the magnitude of its import. All moral facts have a moral meaning; and those are properly called moral facts, which either exhibit, develope, or form moral character. All those facts, or works of God, which are purely physical, exhibit what have been commonly called his natural or physical perfections; and all those facts, or works of God, which are purely moral, exhibit his moral character. It so happens, however, that all his works, when properly understood, exhibit both his physical and moral character, when viewed in all their proper relations. Thus the deluge exhibited his power, his justice, and his truth; and, therefore, displayed both his physical and moral grandeur. The turning of water into wine, apart from its design, is purely a demonstration of physical power; but when its design is apprehended, it has a moral force equal to its physical majesty. [340]
The work of Redemption is a system of works, or deeds, on the part of heaven, which constitute the most splendid series of moral facts which man or angel ever saw. And they are the proof, the argument, or the demonstration, of that regenerating proposition which presents God and love as two names for one idea.
When these facts are understood, or brought into immediate contact with the mind of man, as a moral seal or archetype, they delineate the image of God upon the human soul. All the means of grace are, therefore, only the means of impressing this seal upon the heart; of bringing these moral facts to make their full impression on the soul of man. Testimony and faith are but the channel through which these facts, or the hand of God, draws his image on the heart and character of man. If then the fact and the testimony are both the gift of God, we may well say that faith and eternal life are also the gift of God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
To enumerate the gospel facts, would be to narrate all that is recorded of the sayings and doings of Jesus Christ, from his birth to his coronation in the heavens. They are, however, concentrated in a few prominent ones, which group together all the love of God in the gift of his Son. He died for our sins, He was buried in our grave, He rose from the dead for our justification, and is ascended to the skies to prepare mansions for his disciples, comprehend the whole, or are the heads to the chapters which narrate the love of God, and display his moral majesty and glory to our view.
These moral facts unfold all the moral grandeur of Jehovah | [

, and make Jesus the effulgence of his glory, the express image of his substance. These are the moral seal which testimony conveys to the understanding, and faith brings to the heart of sinners, by which God creates them anew, and forms them for his glory. It is the Spirit which bears witness--the Spirit of God and of Christ which gives the testimony, and confirms it in the disciples. But let us next proceed to testimony.
Testimony.
The Romans, from whom we have borrowed much of our language, called the witness the testis. The declaration of this testis is still called testimony. In reference to the material system around us, to all objects and matters of sense, the eye, the ear, the smell, the taste, the feeling, are the five witnesses. What we call the evidence of sense, is, therefore, the testimony of these witnesses, which constitute the five avenues to the human mind from the kingdom of nature. They are figuratively called witnesses, and their evidence, testimony. But the report or declaration of intelligent beings, such as God, angels, and men, constitute what is properly and literally called testimony.
As light reflected from any material object upon the eye brings that object into contact with the eye, or enables the object to make its image on the eye, so testimony concerning any fact, brings that fact into contact with the mind, and enables it to impress itself, or to form [341] its image upon the intellect, or mind of man. Now, be it observed, that as by our five external senses we acquire all information of the objects of sense around us, so by testimony, human or divine, we receive all our information upon all facts which are not the objects of the immediate exercise of our five senses upon the things around us.
To appreciate the full value of testimony in the divine work of regeneration, we have only to reflect, that all the moral facts which can form moral character, after the divine standard, or which can effect a moral or religious change in man, are found in the testimony of God; and that no fact can operate at all where it is not present; or where it is not known. The love of God in the death of the Messiah never drew a tear of gratitude or joy from any eye, or excited a grateful emotion in any heart among the nations of our race to whom the testimony never came. No fact in the history of six thousand years, no work of God in creation, providence, or redemption, has ever influenced the heart of man or woman to whom it has not been testified. Testimony is, then, in regeneration, as necessary as the fact of which it speaks.
The real value of any thing, is the labor which it cost, and its utility when acquired. If reason and justice arbitrated all questions upon the value of property, the decision would be, that every article is worth the amount of human labor which is necessary to obtain it; and when obtained, it is again to he tried in the scales of utility. Now as all the facts, and all the truth, which can renovate human nature, are in the testimony of God; and as that testimony cost the labor and the lives of the wisest and best that ever lived, that testimony, to us, is just as valuable as the facts which it records, and the labors and the lives which it cost, and just as indispensable in the process of regeneration, as were the labors and the lives of Prophets, Apostles, and the Son of God.
History, or narrative, whether oral or written, is only another name for testimony. When, then, we reflect how large a proportion of both Testaments is occupied in history, we may judge of how much importance it is in the judgment of God. Prophecy also, being the history of future facts, or a record of things to be done, belongs to the same chapter of facts and record. Now if all past facts, and all future facts, or all the history or testimony concerning them, was erased from the volumes of God's inspiration, how small would the remainder be! These considerations, added together, only in part exhibit the value and utility of testimony in the regeneration of mankind. But its value will be still more evident when the proper import of the term faith is fully set before us.
Faith.
No testimony, no faith: for faith is only the belief of testimony, or confidence in testimony as true. To believe without testimony, is just as impossible as to see without light. The measure, quality, and power of faith, are always found in the | [

testimony believed. [342]
Where testimony begins, faith begins; and where testimony ends, faith ends. We believe Moses just as far as Moses speaks or writes; and when Moses has recorded his last fact, or testified his last truth, our faith in Moses terminates. His five books are, therefore, the length and breadth, the height and depth, or, in other words, the measure of our faith in Moses. The quality or value of faith is found in the quality or value of the testimony. The certainty of faith, is the certainty of the testimony. If the testimony be valid and authoritative, our faith is strong and operative. "If," says John, "we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater," stronger and more worthy of credit. The value of a bank bill, is the amount of the precious metals which it represents, and the indisputable evidence of its genuineness; so the value of faith is the importance of the facts which the testimony presents, and the assurance afforded that the testimony is true. True, or unfeigned faith, may be contrasted with feigned faith, but true faith is the belief of truth; for he that believes a lie, believes in vain.
The power of faith is also the power, or moral meaning of the testimony, or of the facts which the testimony represents. If by faith I am transported with joy, or overwhelmed in sorrow, that joy or sorrow is in the facts contained in the testimony, or in the nature and relation of those facts to me. If faith purifies the heart, works by love, and overcomes the world, this power is in the facts believed. If a father has more joy in believing that a lost son has been found, than in believing that a lost sheep has been brought home to his fold, the reason of this greater joy is not in the nature of his faith, but in the nature of the facts believed.
Here I am led to expatiate on a very popular and pernicious error of modern times. That error is, that the nature, or power and saving efficacy of faith, is not in the truth believed, but in the nature of our faith, or in the manner of believing the truth. Hence all that unmeaning jargon about the nature of faith, and all those disdainful sneers at what is called "historic faith"--as if there could be any faith without history, written or spoken. Whoever believed in Jesus Christ, without hearing the history of him? "How shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?" Faith never can be more than the receiving of testimony as true, or the belief of testimony; and if the testimony be written, it is called history--though it is as much history when flowing from the tongue, as when flowing from the pen.
Let it be again repeated, and remembered, that there is no other manner of believing a fact, than receiving it as true. If it is not received as true, it is not believed; and when it is believed, it is no more than regarded as true. This being conceded, then it follows that the efficacy of faith is always in the fact believed, or the object received, and not in the nature or manner of believing.--
"Faith was bewildered much by men who meant
To make it clear, so simple in itself,
A thought so rudimental and so plain,
That none by comment could it plainer make. [343]
All faith was one. In object, not in kind,
The difference lay. The faith that saved a soul,
And that which in the common truth believed,
In essence, were the same. Hear, then, what faith,
True, Christian faith, which brought salvation, was:
Belief in all that God revealed to men;
Observe, in all that God revealed to men,
In all he promised, threatened, commanded, said,
Without exception, and without a doubt."
Pollok's Course of Time, Book viii. p. 189.
This holds universally in all the sensitive, intellectual, and moral powers of man. All our pleasures and pains, all our joys and sorrows, are the effects of the objects of sensation, reflection, faith, &c. apprehended or received, and not in the nature of the exercise of any power or capacity with which we are endowed. We shall illustrate and confirm this assertion by an appeal to the experience of all.
Let us glance at all our sensitive powers. If on surveying with the eye a beautiful landscape | [

, I am pleased, and on surveying a battle field strewed with the spoils of death, I am pained, is it in accordance with truth to say, that the pleasure or the pain received was occasioned by the nature of vision, or the mode of seeing? Was it not the sight, the thing seen, the object of vision, which produced the pleasure and the pain? The action of looking, or the mode of seeing, was in both cases the same; but the things seen, or the objects of vision, were different;--consequently, the effects produced were different.
If on hearing the melody of the grove I am delighted, and on hearing the peals of thunder breaking to pieces the cloud, dark with horror, hanging over my head, I am terrified, is the delight or the terror to be ascribed to the manner or nature of hearing, or to the thing heard? Is it not the thing heard, which produces the delight and the terror?
If I am refreshed by the balmy fragrance of the opening bloom of spring, or sickened by the fetid effluvia of putrid carcases, are these effects to be ascribed to the peculiar nature or mode of smelling, or to the thing smelt? Or when the honey or the gall come in contact with my taste, is the sweet or the bitter to be regarded as the effect of my manner of tasting, or to the object tasted? And when I touch the ice, or the blazing torch, is the effect or feeling produced to be imputed to the manner of feeling them, or to the thing felt? May we not, then affirm that all the pleasures and pains of sense; all the effects of sensation, are the results, not of the manner in which our five senses are exercised, but of the objects on which they are exercised? It may be said, without in the least invalidating this conclusion, that the more intimate the exercise of our senses is with the things on which they are exercised, the stronger and more forcible will be the impressions made; but still it is the object seen, heard, smelt, tasted, or felt, which affects us.
Passing from the outward to the inward man, and on examining the powers of intellection one by one, we shall find no exception to the law which pervades all our sensitive powers. It is neither the [344] faculty of perception, nor the exercise of perception, nor the manner of perception, but the thing perceived, that excites us to action: it is not the exercise of reflection, but the thing reflected upon: it is not memory, nor the exercise of recollection, but the thing remembered: it is not imagination, but the thing imagined: it is not reason itself, nor the exercise of reason, but the thing reasoned upon, which affords pleasure or pain--which excites to action--which cheers, allures, consoles--which grieves, disquiets, or discommodes us.
Ascending to our volitions and our affections, we shall find the same universality. In a word, it is not choosing, nor refusing; it is not loving, hating, fearing, desiring, nor hoping; it is not the nature of any power, faculty, or capacity of our nature, nor the simple exercise of them, but the objects or things upon which they are exercised, which give us pleasure or pain; which induces us to action, or influences our behaviour. Faith, then, or the power of believing, must be an anomalous thing; a power sui generis; an exception to the laws under which every power, faculty, or capacity of man is placed, unless its measure, quality, power, and efficacy, be in the things believed, in the facts which are testified, in the objects on which it terminates.
There is no connexion of cause and effect more intimate; there is no system of dependencies more closely linked; there is no arrangement of things more natural or necessary, than the ideas represented by the terms fact, testimony, faith, and feeling. The first is for the last, and the two intermediates are made necessary by the force of circumstances, as the means for the end. The fact, or the thing said or done, produces the change in the frame of mind. The testimony, or report of the thing said or done, is essential to belief; and belief of it, is necessary to bring the thing said or done to the heart. The change of heart, is the end proposed in this part of the process of regeneration; and we may see that the process on the part of heaven is | [

, thus far, natural and rational: or, in other words, consistent with the constitution of our nature.
Repentance.
Repentance is usually defined "sorrow for any thing past," and in the religious vocabulary it is simply "sorrow for sin." This is one, but it is only one of the natural effects of the belief of the testimony of God. The gospel facts, testimony and faith, contemplate more than this. But yet it is necessary that this point of faith should be distinctly apprehended, especially in this age, when it occupies so large a space in the systems of theology.
Repentance, in our current acceptation, is sorrow for sin; and certainly there is no man who believes the revealed facts found in the testimony of God, who will not be sorry for his sins. But simple sorrow for the past, is but a feeling of the heart which, unless it excite to reformation, or the abandonment of sin, is of no more use than the regrets of Judas after he had sold his Master for fifteen dollars. [345] Repentance must, however, precede reformation: for unless we are sorry for the past, and grieved with ourselves, we will not think of a change of conduct. Repentance is to reformation, what motive is to action, or resolution to any undertaking. It was well for David to resolve to build the temple; and so it is well to form any good design, but much better to execute it. To feel sorry for the poor and the afflicted, and to resolve to assist and comfort them, is well, but to go and do it is better: and, indeed, unless our sorrow for the past terminates in reformation for the future, it is useless in the, estimation of heaven and earth; as useless as to say to the hungry, Be filled; or to the naked, Be clothed.
Genuine repentance does not always issue in reformation. Judas was sorrowful even to death, but could not reform. Many have been so genuinely sorry for their sins, as to became suicides. Speak we of "a godly sorrow"? No; this is not to be expected from unconverted and ungodly persons. Christians, Paul teaches, when they err may repent with a godly sorrow; but this is not to be expected from the unregenerate, or from those who have not reformed. It is not, then, the genuineness of repentance that is to be appreciated, unless by genuine repentance is meant more than simple sorrow for the past--unless by genuine repentance is meant reformation. Yet without sincere or unfeigned repentance, there cannot be real or genuine reformation.
This leads us to observe, that the only unequivocal evidence of sincere repentance, is the actual redress of the injury done; not only a cessation from the sin, but a restitution for the sin, as far as restitution can possibly be made. No restitution, no repentance--provided restitution can be made. And may I be permitted to add, that without repentance, and restitution when possible, there can be no remission.
The preachers of repentance--of the necessity of repentance in order to remission, ought to set this matter fairly and fully before sinners. Do they represent repentance as sorrow for the past, and a determination to reform? How then will the sinner know that he is sorry for his sins against men, or how will the community know that he has repented of such sins, unless full restitution be made? It is impossible that either the sinner himself, or the community who know his sins against man, can have any certain evidence that he is penitent, unless by making all possible restitution.
Peccator wounded the reputation of his neighbor Hermas, and on another occasion defrauded him of ten pounds. Some of the neighborhood were apprized that he had done both. Peccator was converted under the preaching of Paulinus, and on giving in a relation of his sorrow for his sins, spoke of the depth of his convictions, and of his abhorrence of his transgressions. He was received into the congregation, and sat down with the faithful to commemorate the great sin offering. Hermas and his neighbors were witnesses of all this. They saw that Peccator was penitent, and much reformed in his behaviour; but they could not believe him sincere, because that he had [346] made no restitution. They regarded him as either a hypoc | [

rite, or self-deceived; because, having it in his power, he repaid not the ten pounds, nor once contradicted the slanders he had propagated. Peccator, however, felt little enjoyment in his profession, and soon fell back into his former habits. He became again penitent, and on examining the grounds of his falling off, discovered that he had never cordially turned away from his sins. Overwhelmed in sorrow for the past, he resolved on giving himself up to the Lord; and, reflecting on his past life, set about the work of reformation in earnest. He called on Hermas, paid him his ten pounds and the interest for every day he had kept it back, went to all the persons to whom he had slandered him, told them what injustice he had done him, and begged them, if they had told it to any other persons, to contradict it. Several other persons whom he had wronged in his dealings with them, he also visited; and fully redressed all these wrongs against his neighbors. He also confessed them to the Lord, and asked him to forgive him.--Peccator was then restored to the church, and, better still, he enjoyed a peace of mind and a confidence in God, which was a continual feast. His example, moreover, did more to enlarge the congregation at the Cross-roads, than did the preaching of Paulinus in a whole year. This was, unequivocally sincere repentance.
This is the repentance which Moses preached, and which Jesus approbated. Under the law, confession to the priest, and the presenting of a trespass offering, availed nothing to forgiveness without restitution. As the theory of repentance is much lost sight of in this our degenerate age, and as the practice is still more rare, we think it not amiss to be still more explicit on this topic. We shall therefore hear the law and the gospel both on this subject.
In Leviticus, chap. vi. 1-7, we have the word of the Lord upon this subject:--"And the Lord spake to Moses, saying: If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against the Lord, and lie to his neighbor in that which was delivered him to keep, or in fellowship, (i. e. dealing,) or in a thing taken away by violence, or has deceived his neighbor; or have found that which was lost and lies concerning it, and swears falsely; in any of these that a man does, sinning therein: then it shall be because he has sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or the thing which he has deceitfully gotten, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he has found, or all that about which he has sworn falsely: he shall even restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth part more thereto, and give it to him to whom it appertaineth, in the day of his trespass offering. And he shall bring his trespass offering to the Lord, a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering to the priest. And the priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lord; and it shall be forgiven him, for any thing of all that he has done, in trespassing therein."
Thus spoke the Lord to Moses. From which we learn that, under the former economy, a trespass offering to the Lord without restitution to man, or restitution to man without a trespass offering to the [347] Lord, availed not to forgiveness. Thus was repentance preached by Moses. But the law went into details still more minute than these; for provision is made for the case in which the sinner could not find the person against whom he had sinned. In such a case, the penitent sinner was to seek out the kindred of the injured party, and if he could find any kinsman, he was to recompense this kinsman; but if he could not find a kinsman, he must recompense it to the Lord, besides offering his trespass offering. It was to go into the Lord's treasury. See Numb. v. 7, 8. The principle uniformly, in all cases of sin against man, was, the sinner "shall make amends for the harm he has done, and shall add the fifth part thereto." Lev. v. 16.

less sincere or unequivocal under the gospel, let him remember that Zaccheus proposed more than adding a fifth, he would restore fourfold, and that Jesus approbated him for so doing indeed, John the Immerser demanded fruits worthy of repentance or of reformation, and Paul proclaimed that those who turn to God should do works meet or worthy of repentance. Acts xxvi. 20.
"Works worthy of repentance" is a phrase which can be understood in no other sense than those works which make amends for the harm done to men, and the dishonor done to God, as far as both are possible. Can any man think that he is sorry for that sin or wrong which he has done, when he makes no effort to make amends to him who was injured in person, character, or property, by it? Works worthy of his professed repentance are wanting, so long as any being whom he has injured in person, property, or reputation, is unredressed to the utmost extent of his ability.
One of our most popular commentators says--and with much truth--"No man should expect mercy at the hand of God, who having wronged his neighbor, refuses, when he has it in his power to make restitution. Were he to weep tears of blood, both the justice and mercy of God would shut out his prayer, if he make not his neighbor amends for the injury he has done him. He is a dishonest man, who illegally holds the property of another in his hands."--Adam Clarke on Gen. xl. 2.
Every preacher of repentance should insist upon these evidences of sincerity, both for the satisfaction of the penitent himself, and for the good of the community. Acts xix. 18-20 is quite to the point "Many that believed came and confessed, and showed their deeds--many of them also who used curious arts, bringing their books together, burnt them before all: and they computed the value of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver." This was making restitution, in their case, as far as possible; and the principle here evinced is applicable in every other case.
But in pursuing this subject so far, we have passed over the boundaries of repentance, and sometimes confounded it with reformation. This is owing to the licentious use of language to which modern theology has so richly contributed. We shall, however, redress this wrong as far as practicable, by a few remarks on [348]
Reformation.
The word metanoia, used by the sacred writers and heaven taught preachers of the New Economy as indicative of the first effect of faith; as has been often showed, is different from that which our word repentance fitly represents. It literally imports a change of mind; but, as Parkhurst, Campbell, and many others say, such a change of mind "as influences ones' subsequent behaviour for the better" Dr. Campbell, Diss. vi. p. 3, says: "It has been observed by some, and I think with reason, that the former (metanoeo) denotes, properly, a change to the better; the latter (metamelomai) barely a change, whether to the better or to the worse; that the former marks a change of mind that is durable, and produces consequences; the latter expresses only a present uneasy feeling of regret, without regard to duration or effects: in fine, that the first may be translated into English, I reform, the second, I repent, in the familiar acceptation of the words." Now as every one who reforms repents, but as every one who repents does not reform, this distinction is necessary and proper; and there. is nothing hazarded, nothing lost by translating the former I reform, and the latter I repent. There is something gained, especially in all places where we have the word in the imperative mood, because then it is of importance to know precisely what is intended. If we are commanded only to change our mind, or to be sorry for the past, we have obeyed when we feel regret; but if more than mere change of mind or regret is intended, we have not obeyed the commandment until we change for the better. Now it is, we think, very evident from various passages of the sacred writings of the Apostles, and from their speeches, that they commanded more than a simple change of mind as respected past conduct, or mere sorrow for the past. Peter commanded the thousands assembled on the day of Pentecost, who had changed their minds | [

, and who were sorry for the past, to do something which they had not yet done; and that something is in the common version rendered repent, and in the new version reform, and in the old English Bible "amend your lives." The word here used is the imperative of metanoeo. Judas repented, and many like him, who never reformed; and, therefore, it is of importance that this distinction should be kept in view. But for a more full illustration and proof of this we must refer our readers to Note 39, p. 74, Family Testament.
Repentance is not reformation, but is necessary to it; for whoever reforms, must first repent. Reformation is, indeed, the carrying out of the purpose into our conduct. But as reformation belongs rather to another part of our essay than the present, we shall, on the premises already before us, pause and offer a few reflections.
In the preceding definitions of words and ideas, it would appear that we have a literal and unfigurative representation of the whole process of what is figuratively called regeneration. For, as we shall soon see, the term regeneration is a figure of speech which very appropriately, [349] though analogically, represents the reformation or renovation of life of which we have now spoken.
That the preceding arrangement is not arbitrary, but natural and necessary, the reader will perceive when he reflects, that the thing done, or the fact, must precede the report or testimony concerning it; that the testimony concerning it must precede the belief of it; that belief of the testimony must precede any feeling in correspondence with the fact testified; and that feeling must precede action in conformity to it. Fact, testimony, faith, feeling, action, are therefore bound together by a natural and gracious necessity, which no ingenuity can separate. And will not every Christian say, that when a person feels and acts according to the faith, or the testimony of God, he is a new creature--regenerate--truly converted to God? He that believes the facts testified in the record of God, understands them, feels according to their nature and meaning, and acts in correspondence with them--has undergone a change of heart and of life which makes him a new man.
This is that moral change of heart and life which is figuratively called regeneration. We are not to suppose that regeneration is something which must be added to the faith, the feeling, and the action or behavior, which are the effects of the testimony of God understood and embraced; or which are the impress of the divine facts attested by Prophets and Apostles. It is only another name for the same process in all its parts.
It may also be observed that numerous figures and analogies are used by the inspired writers to set forth this change, as well as other leading truths and lessons in the Bible. In their collective capacity Christians are called a kingdom, a nation, a generation, a family, a house, a flock, a city, a temple, a priesthood, &c. In their individual capacity they are called kings, priests, soldiers, citizens, children, sheep, branches, stones, &c. They are said to be begotten, born, regenerated, builded, engrafted, converted, created, planted. Now, under whatever figure they are considered or introduced, reason argues that every thing said of them should be expressed in conformity with the figure under which they are presented. Are they called sheep? Then he that presides over them is called a Shepherd; their enemies are wolves and dogs; their sustenance is the green pasture; their place of safety and repose, the sheepfold; their errors are wanderings and strayings; their conversion, a return; and their good behavior a hearing of the voice, or a following of the Shepherd. Are they called children? Then collectively they are a family; they are begotten and born again; God is their Father; their separation is an adoption; Jesus is their elder brother; they are heirs of God; they live and walk with God. Are they priests? Jesus is their High Priest; the church is their temple; the Saviour is their altar; their songs, their praises are incense ascending to heaven; and their oblations to the poor, their works of love, are sacrifices most acceptable to God. Are they called citizens? The church is then the kingdom of heaven; Jerusalem is the mother of them all; formerly they were aliens, and their [350] naturalization is regeneration. Are they called branches? Then Jesus is | [

the true vine; his Father the vine-dresser; their union with Christ, an engrafting; the discipline of the gospel, a pruning; and their good works are fruits of righteousness.
Thus there is no confusion of metaphors in the Scriptures of truth, in the dialect of heaven. It is the language of Ashdod, it belongs to the confusion of Babel, to mingle and confound all figures and analogies. Hence we so often hear of being born again, without any allusion to a family or a kingdom! and of regeneration as antecedent to faith or repentance! Had a modern assembly of Divines been employed to accommodate the Scripture style to their orthodox sentiments, we should not have had to read all the Old Testament and all the historic books of the New, to find the subject of regeneration but once proposed to an alien, as the fact is; but then we should have found it in the history of Abel, of Enoch, of Noah, and of Abraham, if not in every section of the law of Moses, in the Prophets, and in the Psalms. John the Baptist, Jesus, and the Holy Twelve would have had it in every sermon; and true faith would have been always defined as the fruit of regeneration.
But Jesus had a kingdom in his eye and in his discourse before he ever mentioned being "born again" to Nicodemus: for unless there was a family, a state, or a kingdom to be born into, it is impossible for any one to be born into it. And if the kingdom of heaven only began to be after Jesus entered into heaven; or, if it was only approaching from the ministry of John to the day of Pentecost, then it would have been preposterous, indeed--an incongruity of which no inspired man was ever guilty--to call any change of heart or life a regeneration, or a new birth. It is true that good men in all ages were made such by facts, testimony, faith, and feeling, by a change of heart, by the Spirit of God; but the analogy or figure of being born, or of being regenerated, only began to be used when the kingdom of heaven began to be preached, and when men began to press into it.
We are now, perhaps, better prepared to consider the proper import and meaning of "regeneration" in general, and of "the bath of regeneration" in particular.
Regeneration.
This word is found but twice in all the oracles of God--once in Matthew xix. 28. and once in Titus iii. 5. In the former it is almost universally understood to mean a new state of things, not of persons--a peculiar era, in which all things are to be made new:--such as the formation of a new church on the day of Pentecost, or the commencement of the Millennium, or the general resurrection. The biblical critics of eminence have assigned it to one or other of these great changes in the state of things. So we use the word revolution, and the phrase the Revolution, to express a change in the political state of things. The most approved punctuation and version of this passage renders it altogether evident that a new era is alluded to: "Jesus [351] answered, Indeed, I say to you, that at the renovation (regeneration) when the Son of Man shall be seated on his glorious throne, you, my followers, sitting also upon twelve thrones, shall judge the twelve tribes of Israel." This being so evident, and so often alluded to in our former writings, we shall proceed to the remaining occurrence, Titus iii. 5.
All the new light which we propose to throw on this passage will be gathered from an examination of the acceptation of the word generation in the sacred writings. Our reason for this is, that we object to a peremptory decision of the meaning of a word which occurs only in the passage under discussion, from our reasonings upon the insulated passage in which it is found. In such a case, if we cannot find the whole word in any parallel passages, the proper substitute is the root or branches of that word, so far as they are employed by the same writers. Moreover, we think it will be granted, that whatever may be the scriptural acceptation of the word generation, regeneration is only the repetition of that act or process.
After a close examination of all the passages in which generation occurs in the writings of the Hebrew Prophets and Apostles, we find it used only | [

in two acceptations--as descriptive of the whole process of creation and of the thing created. A race of men, or a particular class of men, is called a generation; but this is its figurative, rather than its literal meaning. Its literal meaning is the formation or creation of any thing. Thus it is first used in the Holy Scriptures. Moses (Gen. ii. 4.) calls the creation, or whole process of formation of the heavens and the earth, "the generations of the heavens and the earth." The account of the formation of Adam and Eve, and also the account of the creations of Adam and Eve, are, by the same writer, called "the book or record of the generations of Adam." Gen. v. 1. This is the literal import of the word; consequently, regeneration literally indicates the whole process of renovating or new-creating man.
This process may consist of numerous distinct acts; but it is in accordance with general usage to give to the beginning, or consummating act, the name of the whole process. For the most part, however, the name of the whole process is given to the consummating act, because the process is always supposed incomplete until that act is performed. For example: in the process of tanning, fulling, forging, &c. the subject of these operations is not supposed to be tanned, fulled, forged, until the last act is performed. So in all the processes of nature--in the animal, vegetable, and mineral kingdoms--the last act consummates the process. To all acquainted with the process of animalization, germination, crystallization, &c. no farther argument is needed. But, in the style of our American husbandmen, no crop nor animal is made, until it come to maturity. We often hear them say of a good shower, or of a few clear days, "This is the making of the wheat, or corn." In the same sense it is that most Christians call regeneration, the NEW BIRTH; though being born is only the last act in natural generation, and the last act in regeneration. [352]
In this way the new birth and regeneration are used indiscriminately by commentators and writers on theology; and, by a figure of speech, it is justified on well established principles of rhetoric. This leads us to speak particularly of
The Bath of Regeneration.
By "the bath of regeneration" is not meant the first, second, or third act; but the last act of regeneration which completes the whole, and is, therefore, used to denote the new birth. This is the reason why our Lord and his Apostles unite this act with water. Being born of water, in the Saviour's style, and the bath of regeneration, in the Apostles' style, in the judgment of all writers and critics of eminence, refer to one and the same act--viz. Christian baptism. Hence it came to pass that all the ancients (as fully proved in our first Extra on Remission) used the word regeneration as synonymous in signification with immersion. In addition to the numerous quotations made in our Essay on Remission, from the creeds and liturgies of Protestant churches, we shall add another from the Common Prayer of the Church of England, showing unequivocally that the learned Doctors of that church used the words regeneration and baptism as synonymous. In the address and prayer of the minister after the baptism of the child, he is commanded to say,
"Seeing now, dearly beloved brethren, that this child is regenerate, and grafted into the body of Christ's church; let us give thanks unto Almighty God for these benefits, and with one accord make our prayer unto him, that this child may lead the rest of his life according to this beginning."
Then shall be said, all kneeling,
"We yield thee hearty thanks, most merciful Father, that it bath pleased thee to regenerate this infant with thy Holy Spirit, to receive him for thine own child by adoption, and to incorporate him into thy holy church. And humbly we beseech thee to grant that he, being dead unto sin, and living unto righteousness, and being buried with Christ in his death, may crucify the old man, and utterly abolish the whole body of sin; and that as he is made partaker of the death of thy Son, he may also be partaker of his resurrection; so that finally, with the residue of thy holy church, | [

he may be an inheriter of thine everlasting kingdom, through Christ our Lord. Amen."
Eusebius, in his Life of Constantine, p. 628, shows that St. Cyprian, St. Athanasius, and, indeed, all the Greek Fathers, did regard baptism as the consummating act; and therefore they called it teliosis, the consummation. These authorities weigh nothing with us; but as they weigh wit our opponents, we think it expedient to remind them on which side the Fathers depose in the case before us. By these quotations we would prove no more than that the ancients understood the washing of regeneration; and, indeed, used the term regeneration as synonymous with baptism.
But were we asked for the precise import of the phrase, "washing or bath of regeneration," either on philological principles, or as explained by the Apostles, we would give it as our judgment that the phrase is a circumlocution or periphrasis for water. It is loutron, a [353] word which more properly signifies the vessel that contains the water, than the water itself; and is, therefore, by the most learned critics and translators, rendered bath, as indicative either of the vessel containing the fluid, or of the use made of the fluid in the vessel. It is therefore by a metonymy the water of baptism, or the water in which we are regenerated. Paul was a Hebrew, and spoke in the Hebrew style. We must learn that style before we fully understand the Apostle's style. In other words, we must studiously read the Old Testaments before we can accurately understand the New. What more natural for a Jew accustomed to speak of "the water of purification," of "the water of separation,"1 to speak of "the bath of regeneration"? If the phrase "water of purification" meant water used for the purpose of purifying a person--if "the water of separation" meant water used for separating a person, what more natural than "the bath of regeneration" should mean water used for regenerating a person?
But the New Testament itself confirms this exposition of the phrase. We find the word loutron once more used by the same Apostle, in the same connexion of thought. In his letter to the Ephesians, chap. v. 26, he affirms that Jesus has sanctified (separated, purified with the water of purification) the church by a loutron of water--"a bath of water, with the word"--"having cleansed it by a bath of water, with the word." This is still more decisive. The common version, so fully aware that the sense of this passage agrees with Titus iii. 5. have, in both places, used the word washing, and Macknight the term bath, as the import of loutron. What is called the washing, or bath of regeneration, in the one passage, is, in the other, called "the washing," or "bath of water." What is called "saved" in one, is called "cleansed" in the other; and what is called "the renewal of the Holy Spirit" in the one, is called "the word" in the other; because the Holy Spirit consecrates or cleanses through the word. For thus prayed the Messiah, "Consecrate them through the truth: thy word is the truth." And again, "You are clean through the word that I have spoken to you."
To the same effect, Paul, to the Hebrew Christians, says, "Having your hearts sprinkled from a guilty conscience, and your bodies washed with pure water--the water of purification, the water of regeneration. For the phrase "pure water" must be understood, not of the quality of the water, but metonymically, of the effect, the cleansing, the washing, or the purifying of the person--"having your bodies or persons washed with pure water," or water that purifies or cleanses.
None, acquainted with Peter's style, will think it strange that Paul represents persons as saved, cleansed, or sanctified by water; seeing Peter unequivocally asserts that "we are saved" through water, or through baptism, as was Noah and his family through water and faith in God's promise. "The antitype" (like figure) "immersion, does also now save us."
Finally, our great Prophet, the Messiah, gives to water the | [

same place and power in this work of regeneration. For when speaking [354] of being born again--when explaining to Nicodemus the new birth, he says, "Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." May not we then, supported by such high authorities, call that water of which a person is born again, the water or bath of regeneration?
New Birth.
We have already seen that the consummation of the process of generation or creation is in the birth of the creature formed. So it is in the moral generation, or in the great process of regeneration. There is a state of existence from which he that is born passes; and there is a state of existence into which he enters after birth. This is true of the whole animal creation, whether oviparous or viviparous. Now the manner of existence, or the mode of life, is wholly changed; and he is, in reference to the former state, dead, and to the new state alive. So in moral regeneration. The subject of this great change before his new birth existed in one state; but after it he exists in another. He stands in a new relation to God, angels, and men. He is now born of God, and has the privilege of being a son of God, and is consequently pardoned, justified, sanctified, adopted, saved. The state which he left was a state of condemnation, what some call "the state of nature." The state into which he enters is a state of favor, in which he enjoys all the heavenly blessings through Christ: therefore it is called "the kingdom of heaven." All this is signified in his death, burial, and resurrection with Christ; or in his being born of water. Hence the necessity of being buried with Christ in water, that he may be born of water, that he may enjoy the renewal of the Holy Spirit, and be placed under the reign of favor.
All the means of salvation are means of enjoyment, not of procurement. Birth itself is not for procuring, but for enjoying the life possessed before birth. So in the analogy--no one is to be baptized, or to be buried with Christ; no one is to be put under the water of regeneration for the purpose of procuring life, but for the purpose of enjoying the life of which he is possessed. If the child is never born, all its sensitive powers and faculties cannot be enjoyed; for it is after birth that these are fully developed and feasted upon all the aliments and objects of sense in nature. Hence all that is now promised in the gospel can only be enjoyed by those who are born again and placed in the kingdom of heaven under all its influences. Hence the philosophy of that necessity which Jesus preached,--"Unless a man be born again he cannot discern--unless a man be born of water and Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven.
But let no man think that in the act of being born, either naturally or metaphorically, the child purchases, procures, or merits either life or its enjoyments. Be is only by his birth placed in circumstances favorable to the enjoyment of life and all that makes life a blessing. "To as many as received him, believing in his name, he granted the privilege of being children of God, who derive their birth not from [355] blood, nor from the desire of the flesh, nor from the will of man, but from God."
Renewing of the Holy Spirit.
"He has saved us," says the Apostle Paul, "by the bath of regeneration and the renewing of the Holy Spirit, which he poured on us richly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; that, being justified by his favor, [in the bath of regeneration,] we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life." Thus, and not by works of righteousness, he has saved us. Consequently, being born of water and the renewing of the Holy Spirit are not works of merit or of righteousness, but only means of enjoyment. But this pouring out of the influences, this renewing of the Holy Spirit is as necessary as the bath of regeneration to the salvation of the soul, and to the enjoyment of the hope of heaven, of which the Apostle speaks. In the kingdom into which we are born of water, the Holy Spirit is as the atmosphere in the kingdom of nature--we mean that the influences of the Holy Spirit are as necessary to the new life as the atmosphere is to our animal life in the kingdom of nature.

on this topic we have said so much in our "Extra Defended," that to it we must refer our readers who are still inquisitive on the subject. All that is done in us before regeneration, God our father effects by the word, or the gospel as dictated and confirmed by his Holy Spirit. But after we are thus begotten and born by the Spirit of God--after our new birth, the Holy Spirit is shed on us richly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; of which the peace of mind, the love, the joy, and the hope of the regenerate is full proof; for these are amongst the fruits of that Holy Spirit of promise of which we speak. Thus commences
The New Life.
"Newness of life" is a Hebraism, for a new life. The new birth brings us into a new state. "Old things have passed away; all things have become new," says an Apostle: "for if any one be in Christ he is a new creature." A new spirit, a new heart, and an outward character corresponding to this change, are the effects of the regenerating process: "for the end of the charge," the grand result of the remedial system, is "love out of a pure heart, a good conscience, and faith unfeigned." "Love is the fulfilling of the whole law," and the fruit of the whole gospel. It is the cardinal principle of all Christian behaviour, the soul of the new man, the breath of the new life. Faith works by no other rule. It is a working principle, and love is the rule by which it operates. The Spirit of God is the spirit of love and the health of a sound mind. Every pulsation of the new heart is the impulse of the spirit of love. Hence the brotherhood is beloved, and all mankind embraced in unbounded good will. When the tongue speaks, the hands and feet move and operate under the unrestrained guidance of this principle, we have the Christian character drawn to [356] the life. For meekness, humility, mercy, sympathy, and active benevolence, are only the names of the various workings of this all renovating, invigorating, sanctifying, and happifying principle. "He that dwells in love dwells in God and God in him."
The Christian, or the new man, is then a philanthropist to the utmost extent of the meaning of that word. Truth and love have made him free from all the tyrannies of passion, from guilt, and fear, and shame; have filled him with courage, active and passive. Therefore, his enterprize, his capital enterprize, to which all others minister, is to take part with the Saviour in the salvation of the world. "If by any means I may save some," are not the words of Paul only, but of every new man. Are they merchants, mechanics, husbandmen; are they magistrates, lawyers, judges, or unofficial citizens; are they masters, servants, fathers, sons, brothers, neighbors; whatever, or wherever they may be, they live for God and his city, for the King and his Empire. They associate not with the children of wrath--the miser, the selfish, the prodigal, the gay, the proud, the slanderer, the tattler, the rake, the libertine, the drunkard, the thief, the murderer. Every new man has left these precincts; has broken his league with Satan and his slaves, and has joined himself to the family of God. These he complacently loves, those he pities, and does good to all.
The character of the new man is an elevated character. Feeling himself a son and heir of God, he cultivates the temper, spirit, and behaviour, which correspond with so exalted a relation. He despises everything mean, grovelling, earthly, sensual, devilish. As the only begotten and well beloved Son of God is to be the model of his future personal glory, so the character which Jesus sustained amongst men, is the model of his daily imitation. His every day aspiration is--
"Thy fair example I would trace,
To teach me what I ought to be;
Make me by thy transforming grace,
Lord Jesus, daily more like thee!"
The law of God is hid in his heart. The living oracles dwell in his mind; and he grows in favor with God as he grows in the knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ his Lord. As a newborn babe he desires the unadul | [

terated milk of the word of God, that he may grow by it; for as the thirsty hart pants after the brooks of water, so pants his soul after God. Thus he lives to God, and walks with him. This is the character of the regenerate, of him that is born of God, of the new man in Christ Jesus. This is that change of heart, of life, and of character, which is the tendency and the fruit of the process of regeneration as taught and exemplified by the Apostles, and those commended by God, in their writings.
We now proceed to offer a few remarks on physical regeneration, the second part of our subject.-- [357]
Physical Regeneration.
Our mortal bodies are yet to feel the regenerating power of the Son of God. This is emphatically called "the glory of his power." "The redemption of the body" from the bondage of corruption, is the consummation of the new-creating energy of him who has immortality. Life and incorruptibility were displayed in and by his resurrection from the dead. It was great to create man in the image of God, greater to redeem his soul from general corruption, but greatest of all to give to his mortal frame incorruptible and immortal vigor. The power displayed in the giving to the dead body of the Son of God incorruptible glory and endless life, is set forth by the Apostle Paul as incomparably surpassing every other divine work within the reach of human knowledge. He prays that the mind of Christians may be enlarged to apprehend this mighty power--that the Father of glory would open their minds, "that they might know the exceeding greatness of his power in relation to us who believe--according to the working of his mighty power, which he wrought in Christ when he raised him from the dead and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places." Faith in this wonderful operation of God--hope for the riches of the glory of the inheritance of the saints in light, are the most powerful principles of action which God has ever planted in the human breast. This is the transcendent hope of the Christian calling, which imparted such heroic courage to all the saints of eternal renown. This better resurrection in prospect, has produced heroes which make cowards of all the boasted chiefs of worldly glory. As the magnetic needle ever points to the pole, so the mind influenced by this hope ever rises to the skies, and terminates on the fulness of joy and the pleasures forevermore, in the presence and at the right hand of God.
To raise a dead body to life again, is not set forth as more glorious than by a touch to give new vigor to the palsied arm, to impart sight to the blind, or hearing to the deaf; but to give that raised body the deathless vigor of incorruptibility, to renovate and transform it in all its parts, and to make every spirit feel that it reanimates its own body, that is as insusceptible of decay, as immortal as the Father of eternity, is a thought overwhelming to every mind, a development which will glorify the power of God, as the sacrifice of his Son now displays his righteousness, faithfulness, and love to the heavens and to the earth.
This new birth from the dark prison of the grave, is fitly styled "the redemption of the body" from bondage, "the glorious liberty of the sons of God." As in our watery grave the old man is figuratively buried to rise no more, so in the literal grave, the prison of the body, we leave all that is corrupt; for he that makes all things new will raise us up in his own likeness, and present us before his Father's face in all the glory of immortality. Then will regeneration be complete. Then will be the full revelation of the sons of God. [358]
Immortality, in the sacred writings, is never applied to the spirit of man. It is not the doctrine of Plato which the resurrection of Jesus proposes. It is the immortality of the body of which his resurrection is a proof and pledge. This was never developed till he became the first born from the dead, and in a human body entered the heavens. Jesus was not a spirit when he returned to God. He is not made the Head of the New Creation as a Spirit, but as the Son of Man. Our nature in his person is | [

glorified; and when he appears to our salvation, we shall be made like him: we shall then see him as he is. This is the Christian hope.
"A hope so great and so divine
May trials well endure,
And purify the soul from sense and sin,
As Christ himself is pure."
Thus matters stand in the economy of redemption. Thus the divine scheme of regeneration is consummated: the moral part, by the operation of moral means; the physical part, by the mighty power of God operating through physical means. By the word of his power he created the heavens and the earth; by the word of his grace he reanimates the soul of man; and by the word of his power he will again form our bodies anew, and reunite the spirit and the body in the bonds of an incorruptible and everlasting union. Then shall death "be swallowed up forever."
"Where now thy victory, boasting grave?"
But for this we must patiently wait. "We know not what we shall be." We only know, that when he appears we shall be like him; that we shall see him as he is.
The use of the Theory of Regeneration.
One would imagine, from the voluminous arguments, debates and sermons upon the theory of regeneration, that a sound theory was essential to salvation: that it must be preached in every sermon, in order to regenerate the hearers. Nothing can be more preposterous. Who can think that any theory of the resurrection or regeneration of the body, can affect the body in the grave! As little can any theory affect the unregenerate, or those dead in trespasses and in sins. A sermon upon generation, or upon natural birth, would be as efficacious upon those unborn in bringing them into this life, as a sermon upon moral or physical regeneration. This explains the fact, that in all the accounts of apostolical preaching to Jew and Gentile--in all the extracts of their sermons and speeches found in the New Testament, the subject of regeneration is not once mentioned. It is, in all the historic books of the New Testament, but once propounded, but once named; and that only in a private conference with a Jewish senator on the affairs of Christ's kingdom. No theory understood or believed by the unregenerate; no theory proposed to them for their acceptance, can avail any thing to their regeneration. We might as [359] reasonably deliver a theory of digestion to a dyspeptic, to cure his stomach--or a theory upon vegetation to a scion, to hasten its growth, as to preach any view of regeneration to a sinner, to make him a Christian.
Of what use, then, are the previous remarks on this subject? I will first candidly inform the reader, that they were not written for his regeneration, either of mind or body; but for the benefit of those who are employed in the work of regenerating others, and for the conviction of such Christians as may have been induced to regard us as aiming at nothing but the mere immersion of persons, as alone necessary to the whole process of conversion or regeneration, in their acceptation of these words.2 The use of this theory, if it have any, is, as a guide to those who are laboring publicly or privately for the regeneration of sinners. If we have assigned a proper place to facts, testimony, faith, feeling, action, the bath of regeneration, the renewing of the Holy Spirit, and a new life, the course is fairly marked [360] out. They are to present the great facts, to declare the whole testimony of God to sinners, in order to their conversion or regeneration. Like Paul, in his account of his labors in Corinth, they must go out, not in the strength of human philosophy, "but declaring the testimony of God," and laying before their hearers "the wonderful works of God."
This is the use, and the only proper use of sound theory on any subject. It is to guide the operator, not the thing operated upon. would hope, under the Divine blessing, to be the means of regenerating more persons in one year, never once naming regeneration., nor speculating upon the subject, by stating and enforcing the testimony of God, than by preaching daily the most approved theory of regeneration ever sanctioned by any sanhedrim on earth.3 With these views we have, then, offered the preceding remarks; and shall now briefly turn our attention to | [

The Regeneration of the Church.
The word regeneration we have found once used in the sense of a new state of things, or of the introduction of a new state of things. Matth. xix. 28. In this application of the word, we would turn the attention of our readers to the necessity of the regeneration of the church.
I speak not of the regeneration of any sectarian establishment. They are built upon another foundation--upon the foundation of decrees of councils, creeds, formularies, or acts of Parliament. But we speak of those societies that professedly build upon the foundation of Apostles and Prophets, without any human bond of union, or rule of life--our brethren of the reformation or regeneration now in process.
Should any one imagine that the state of things to which we have attained is the sole, or ultimate object of our aspirations, or our efforts, he would do us the greatest injury. Societies indeed may be found amongst us far in advance of others in their progress towards the ancient order of things; but we know of none that has fully attained to that model. It is, however, most acceptable to see so many societies formed and forming under the banners of reformation, with the determination to move onwards in conformity to the sacred oracles, till they stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
Our opponents cannot, or will not, understand how any society can be in progress to a better order of things than that under which they may have commenced their pilgrimage. Their sectarian policies were soon formed, and the limits of their reformation were soon fixed, beyond which it soon became heretical to move. The founders of all new schisms not only saw through a glass darkly, but their horizon was so circumscribed with human traditions, that they only aimed at moving a few paces from the hive in which they were generated. A new creed was soon adopted, and then their stature was complete. They bounded from infancy to manhood in a few days, and decided if any presumed farther to advance, they should be treated as those who had refused to move from the old hive. Hence it became as censurable to grow beyond a certain standard, as not to grow at all. This never was our proposition, and never can be our object. We have no new creed to form, no rules of discipline to adopt. We have taken the Living Oracles as our creed, our rules and measures of faith and practice; and in this department, have no additions, alterations, nor amendments to propose. But incoming up to this standard of knowledge, faith, and behaviour, we have something yet before us, to which we have not attained.
That we may be distinctly understood on this subject, we shall speak particularly on the things wanting in our individual characters, and of the things wanting in our church order, to give to our meetings that interest and influence which they ought to exert on the brotherhood and on society at large. [362]
It will be understood, that our remarks on the things which are wanting in the disciples, are applicable not to every individual, but to the general mass. And first of all, there is wanting a more general and particular knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, than is possessed by the great majority of the reformers. There is, perhaps, wanting a taste or disposition for that private devotional reading of the oracles of God, which is so essential to a growth in that knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ, which constitutes the most striking attribute in Christian character. We thus reason from the proficiency which is discoverable in the bounds of our acquaintance, which is large enough to afford data for very general conclusions.
To read the Scriptures fur the sake of carrying out into practice all that we learn, and to read them for the sake of knowing what is written, are very different objects, and will produce very different results. Their influence on the temper and behaviour, in the former case, will very soon become manifest to all with whom we associate; while in the latter case, there is no visible improvement. David said that he "hid the word of God in his heart," or laid it up in his mind, "that he might not sin against God;" and that he had "more understanding than all his teachers, because God's testimonies were his meditation." It will be admitted that the sacred writings of the Apostles and Evangelists of Jesus Christ, ought to be as precious and as delightful to the Christian, as were the ancient oracles to the most pious Jew. Now as an example of what we mean by a private devotional | [

reading and study of the oracles of Christ, we shall permit a Jew to tell his experience--
"The law of thy mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver. With my whole heart have I sought thee; my soul breaketh for the longing that it has to thy judgments at all times. Thy testimonies are my delight and my counsellors. Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes, and I will keep it to the end. Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yes, I will observe it with my whole heart. Make me to go in the path of thy commandments, for in it do I delight. Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage. At midnight I will rise to give thanks to thee, because of thy righteous judgments. 0 how I love thy law; it is my meditation all the day! How sweet are thy words to my taste; sweeter than honey to my mouth! Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage forever, for they are the rejoicing of my heart. Great peace have they that love thy law, and nothing shall cause them to stumble."
These are only a few extracts from one piece, written by a king three thousand years ago. On another occasion he pronounced the following encomium on the testimony of God:--
"The law [doctrine] of the Lord is perfect, converting [restoring] the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple: the statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the judgments of the Lord are true [363] and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey, and the honey-comb. By them is thy servant warned, and in keeping of them there is a great reward."
This fully reveals all that we mean by a devotional private study of the Holy Scriptures. Every Christian who can read, may every day thus refresh, strengthen, and comfort his heart, by reading or committing to memory, and afterwards reflecting upon some portion of the book. He may carry in his pocket the blessed volume, and many a time through the day take a peep into it. This will preserve him from temptation, impart courage to his heart, give fluency to his tongue, and the graces of Christianity to his life.
In this age, when ignorance of the Christian Scriptures is so characteristic, and the rage for human opinions and traditions so rampant, it is a duty doubly imperative on our brethren, to give themselves much more to the study of the book, and then one of them will put a host of the aliens to flight; and, what is still more desirable, he will have communion with God all the day, and ever rejoice in his salvation.
In the second place, there is wanting amongst disciples who are heads of families, more attention, much more effort, to bring up their children "in the correction and instruction of the Lord." The children of all disciples should be taught the oracles of God from the first dawning of reason. The good seed should be sown in their hearts before the strong seeds of vice can take root. From a child Timothy knew the Holy Scriptures, and they were able to make him wise to salvation, through the Christian faith. How many more Timothys might we have, if we had a few more of the daughters of Lois, and a few more mothers like Eunice! Most saints, in this generation, appear more zealous that their children should shine on earth, than in heaven--and that they may be rich here, at the hazard of eternal bankruptcy. They labor to make them rich and genteel, rather than pure and holy; and spend more time in fashioning them to the foolish and wicked taste of polished society, than in teaching them by precept and example the word that is better than gold, and more precious than rubies. Well, they sow darnel, and cannot reap wheat. They may have a mournful harvest, and years of bitterness and sorrow may reward them for their negligence and error. If only a tithe of the time, and the labor, and expense that it costs to fit a son or a daughter to shine in the middle or front ranks of genteel society, were spent in teaching them to fear God and keep | [

his commandments, how many more virtuous, solid and useful citizens--how many more valuable members of the family of God--how many more faithful and able witnesses for the truth of God, would be found in all corners of the land!
Every Christian family ought to be a nursery for God. Their offspring should be trained for the skies. For such are the promises of God, such are the facts on record, and such is the experience of Christians, that every parent who does his duty to his children, may [364] expect to see them inherit the blessing. Their didactic labors, aided by their example and their constant prayers, will seldom or never fail of success in influencing their descendants to walk in their ways. The very command to bring up their children in the Lord, implies its practicability. And both Testaments furnish us with all assurance that such labors will not be vain. The men of high renown in sacred history, were generally the sons of such a parentage. The sons of God were found among the sons of Seth, while the daughters of men were of the progeny of Cain. Abraham was the descendant of Shem; Moses and Aaron were the sons of believing parents; Samuel was the son of Hannah, and David was the son of Jesse. John the Harbinger was the son of Zechariah and Elizabeth; and it pleased the heavenly Father, that his Son should be the child of a pious virgin.
But it is under Christ that the faithful are furnished with all the necessary means of bringing up their offspring for the Lord. The numerous failures which we witness, are to be traced either to great neglect, or to some fatal notion which paralyzes all effort; for some think that the salvation or damnation of their offspring was a matter settled from all eternity, irrespective of any agency on their part: that some are born "vessels of wrath," and others "vessels of mercy;" and hence the instructions, examples and prayers of parents, are of no avail. Among the descendants of such, it will no doubt often happen that some become vessels of wrath fitted for destruction, while others become vessels of mercy, predestined to glory.
When God gave a revelation to Jacob, and commanded a law to Israel, he gave it in charge that they "should teach it to their children, that they might put their trust in God, and might not be, like their fathers, a rebellious race." The Apostles of Christ have also taught the Christians the same lesson. This is our guide, and not our own reasonings. Now let the disciples make this their business, morning, noon, and evening, and then we shall see its effects.
We are sorry to see this great duty, to which nature, reason, revelation alike direct, so much neglected by many of our brethren; to find amongst their children those who are no better acquainted with the Scriptures than the children of their neighbors who believe in miraculous conversions, or think it a sin to attempt what they imagine to be the work of God alone--never suspecting that God works by human means, and employs human agency in his works of providence and redemption.
I never knew but a very few families that made it their daily business to train up their children in the knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, to cause them every day to commit to memory a portion of the living oracles; but these few instances authorize me to think, and to say, that such a course persisted in, and sustained by the good example of parents, will very generally, if not universally, issue in the salvation of their children. And before any one says, I have found an exception to the proverb of Solomon which says "train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from [365] it,"--let him show that this child was trained up "in the way he should go."
In the third place, there is wanting among many disciples a stricter regard to relative duties--we mean, not only the dues which justice, truth, and moderation claim, but all relative duties. So long as Christians live after the manner of men in the flesh, according to the fashion of this world, they must, like other men, contract debts which they cannot promptly pay, make covenants and bargains, give promises which they cannot fulfil, and stake pledges which they are unable to redeem. All this is wholly incompatible with our profession. Such were not the primitive disciples. Sceptics of every name | [

, men of the world, who have ever read the New Testament, know that such behaviour is utterly incompatible with the letter and spirit of Christianity. A Christian's word or promise ought to be, and is, if Christ be honored, as solemn and as obligatory as any bond. And as for breach of bargain or covenant, even where it is greatly or wholly to the disadvantage of the Christian, it is not even to be thought of--"he changes not, though to his hurt he covenants." How much has the gospel lost of its influence, because of the faithlessness of its professors! O when shall it be again said of Christians in general, that "they bind themselves as with a solemn oath, not to commit any kind of wickedness--to be guilty neither of theft, robbery, nor adultery--never to break a promise, or to keep back a deposit when called upon." Pliny writes to the Emperor Trajan that such was the character of Christians A. D. 106-7, as far as he could learn it from those who were not Christians. Were all the common (now-a-days rather uncommon) virtues of justice, truth, fidelity, honesty, practised by all Christians, how many mouths would be stopped, and how many new arguments in favor of Jesus Christ could all parties find! But even were these common virtues as general as the Christian profession, there are the other finer virtues of benevolence, goodness, mercy, sympathy, which belong to the profession, expressed in taking care of the sick, the orphan, the widow--in alleviating all the afflictions of our fellow-creatures. Add these virtues, or graces, as we sometimes call them, to the others, and then how irresistible the argument for the divine authenticity of the gospel! Let industry, frugality, temperance, honesty, justice, truth, fidelity, humility, mercy, sympathy, appear conspicuous in the lives of the disciples, and the contest between them and other professors will plead their cause more successfully than a hundred preachers.
In the last place, there is wanting a more elevated piety to bring up the Christian character to the standard of primitive times. We want not fine speeches nor eloquent orations on the excellencies of Christian piety and devotion. These are generally acknowledged. But we need to be roused from our supineness, from our worldly-mindedness, from our sinful conformities to an apostate generation, to the exhibition of that holiness in speech, in behaviour, without which no one shall see the Lord. What mean the numerous exhortations of the Apostles to watchfulness and prayer, if these are not essential to our devotion to God and consecration to his service? [366]
If our affections are not placed on things above, we are unfit for the kingdom of glory. To see the folly of a profession of Christianity without the power of godliness, we have only to put the question, How is that person fit for the enjoyment of God and Christ, whose heart is filled with the cares, anxieties, and concerns of this life--whose whole life is a life of labor and care for the body--a life of devotion to the objects of time and sense? No man can serve God and Mammon. Where the treasure is the heart must also be. Thither the affections turn their course. There is no roam for the residence of the Spirit of God in a mind devoted to the affairs of this life. The spirit of the policies of this world and the Spirit of God cannot dwell in the same heart. If Jesus or his Apostles taught any one doctrine clearly, fully, and unequivocally, it is this doctrine, that "the cares of this world, the lusts of other things, and the deceitfulness of riches stifle the word and render it unfruitful."
If any one would enjoy the power of godliness, he must give up his whole soul to it. The business of this life will be performed religiously as a duty subordinate to the will of God. While his hands are engaged in that business which his own wants, or those of his household make necessary, his affections are above. He delights in God, and communes with him all the day. A Christian is not one who is pious by fits and starts, who is religious or devout on one day of the week, or for one hour of the day. It is the whole bent of his soul--it is the beginning, middle, and | [

end of every day. To make his calling and election sure is the business of his life. His mind rests only in God. He places the Lord always before him. This: s his joy and his delight. He would not for the world have it otherwise. He would not enjoy eternal life, if he had it at his option, in any other way than that which God himself has proposal. He accedes to God's arrangements, not of necessity, but of choice. His religious services are perfect freedom. He is free indeed. The Lord's commandments are not grievous, but joyful. The yoke of Christ is to him easy and his burthen light. He will sing with David--
The love that to thy laws I bear,
No language can display;
They with fresh wonders entertain
My ravish'd thoughts all day.
The law that from thy mouth proceeds
Of more esteem I hold
Than untouch'd mines, than thousand mines
Of silver and of gold.
Whilst in the way of thy commands,
More solid joy I found,
Than had I been with vast increase
Of envy'd riches crown'd.
Thy testimonies I have kept,
And constantly obey'd;
Because the love I bore to them
Thy service easy made. [367]
In the same ratio as Christians devoutly study the oracles of God, teach them to their children, practise all relative duties to society at large, and rise to a more elevated piety, they will increase their influence in the great and heavenly work of regenerating the world.
A few remarks on the things wanting in the order of Christian assemblies, to give to their public meetings that influence on themselves and on society at large, will finish this section of our essay.
Our heavenly Father wills our happiness in all his institutions. His ordinances are, therefore, the surest, the simplest, and the most direct means of promoting our happiness. The Lord Jesus gave himself for the church that he might purify and bless it; and, therefore, in the church are all the institutions which can promote the individual and social good of the Christian community. In attending upon these institutions on the Lord's day much depends upon the preparation of heart of all who unite in commemorating the death and resurrection of the Son of God.
In adverting to the most scriptural and rational manner of celebrating or observing the day to the Lord, and for our own comfort and the regeneration of the world, we would first of all remark, that much depends upon the frame of mind, or preparation of heart, in which we visit the assemblies of the saints.
Suppose two persons, A and B, if you please, members of the same church, taking their seats together at the Lord's table. A, from the time he opened his eyes in the morning, was filled with the recollections of the Saviour's life, death, and resurrection. In his closet, in his family, and along the way he was meditating or conversing on the wonders of redemption, and renewing his recollections of the sayings and doings of the Messiah. B, on the other hand, arose as on other days, and finding himself free from all obligations arising from the holiness of time, talks about the common affairs of every day, and allows his thoughts to roam over the business of the last week, or, perhaps, to project the business of the next. If he meet with a neighbor, friend, or brother, the news of the day is inquired after, expatiated upon, discussed; the crops, the markets, the public health, or the weather--the affairs of Europe, or the doings of Congress, or the prospects of some candidate for political honor, become the theme of conversation. As he rides or walks to the church, he chats upon all, or any of these topics, till he enter the door of the meeting house. Now as A and B enter the house in very different states of mind, may it not be supposed that they will differ as much in their enjoyments as in their morning thoughts? Or can B, by a single effort, unburthen his mind, call in the wanderings of his thoughts, and in a moment transport himself from the contemplation of things on earth to things in heaven? If this can be imagined, then meditation and preparation of heart are wholly unnecessary to the acceptable worship of God, and to the comfortable enjoyment of his institutions.
But is it compatible with experience, or is it accordant to reason that B can delight in God, and rejoice in commemor | [

ating the wonders of his redemption, while his thoughts are dissipated upon the mountains [368] of a thousand vanities?--while, like a fool's eyes, his thoughts are roaming to the ends of the earth! Can he say, with a pious Jew, "How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Lord of hosts! My soul longs--yes, even faints, for the courts of the Lord! My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God. Happy they who dwell in thy house; they will be still praising thee! A day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a door-keeper in the house of my God than to dwell in the tents of wickedness."--"One thing have I desired of the Lord, and that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple. O send out thy light and thy truth! Let them lead me, let them bring me to thy holy hill and to thy tabernacles. Then will I go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; yes, I will praise thee, O God, my God!"
Or had the Jew a sublimer worship, more exalted views of God's salvation, and more piety than a Christian? Or were the ordinances of the Jewish sanctuary more entertaining and refreshing than the ordinances of the Christian church? This will not be alleged; consequently, B, and all of that school, are utterly at fault when they approach the house of God in such a state of mind as they approach the market place, the forum, or the common resorts of this present world.
Christians need not say in excuse for themselves, that all days are alike, that all places and times are alike holy, and that they ought to be in the best frame of mind all the time. For even concede them all their own positions, they will not contend that a man ought to speak to God, or to come into the presence of God, as they approach men. They will not say that they ought to have the same thoughts and feelings in approaching the Lord's table, as in approaching a common table; or on entering a court of political justice, as in coming into the house of God. There is, in the words of Solomon the Wise, a season and time for every object and for every work:--There is the Lord's day, the Lord's table, the Lord's house, and the Lord's people; and there are thoughts, and frames of mind, and behaviour compatible and incompatible with all these.
In the public assembly the whole order of worship ought to do justice to what is passing in the minds of all the worshippers. That joy in the Lord, that peace and serenity of mind, that affection for the brethren, that reverence for the institutions of God's house, which all feel, should be manifest in all the business of the day. Nothing that would' do injustice to all or any of these, ought ever to appear in the congregation of Jesus Christ our Lord. No levity, irreverence, no gloom, no sadness, no pride, no unkindness, no severity of behaviour towards any, no coldness, nothing but love, and peace, and joy, and humility, and reverence should appear in the face, in the word, or action of any disciple.
These are not little matters. They all exert a salutary influence on the brethren and the strangers. These are visible and sensible displays of the temper and spirit of Christians; and if Paul thought it [369] expedient to write of veils and long hair when admonishing a church "to do all things decently and in order," we, in this day of degeneracy, may be allowed to notice matters and things as minute as those before us.
We intend not now to go into the details of church order or Christian discipline, nor to expatiate on the necessity of devoting a part of the time to singing, praying, reading, teaching, exhorting, commemorating, communicating; nor on how much of this or that is expedient. Times and circumstances must decide how much time shall be taken up in these exercises, and when it shall be most fitting to meet, to adjourn, &c. Nor is it necessary now to say, that there must be simply order, and presidency, and proper discipline, and due subordination to one another in the fear of God. We now speak rather of the manner in which all things are | [

to be done, than of the things themselves, their necessity or value.
After noticing what in some instances appears to be wanting in the manner of coming together on the Lord's day, we proceed to notice in order the things wanting in many congregations for the purposes already specified.
And first of all, be it observed, that in some churches there appears to be wanting a proper method of handling the Scriptures to the edification of the brethren. It is admitted by all the holy brethren that the Scriptures of truth, called the living oracles, are the great instrument of God for all his purposes in the saints on earth. Through them they are converted to God, comforted, consecrated, made meet for an inheritance among the sanctified, and qualified for every good word and work. Every thing, then, depends upon the proper understanding of these volumes of inspiration. They can only operate as far as they are understood.
The system of sermonizing on a text is now almost universally abandoned by all who intend that their hearers should understand the testimony of God. Orators and exhorters may select a word, a phrase, or a verse; but all who feed the flock of God with knowledge and understanding, know that this method is wholly absurd. Philological lectures upon a chapter are only a little better. The discussion of any particular topic, such as faith, repentance, election, the Christian calling, may sometimes be expedient; but in a congregation of Christians the reading and examining the different books in regular succession, every disciple having the volume in his hand, following up the connexion of things, examining parallel passages, interrogating and being interrogated, fixing the meaning of particular words and phrases by comparison with the style of that writer or speaker, or with that of others; intermingling these exercises with prayer and praises, and keeping the narrative, the epistle, or the speech, so long before the minds of all, as is necessary for the youngest disciple in the congregation to understand it, and to become deeply interested in it, will do more in one year than is done in many on the plan of the popular meetings of the day. [370]
Great attention should be paid to all the allusions, in any composition, to the peculiarities of time, place, and circumstance, to the geographical, historical, and chronological particulars of all questions of fact connected with all persons of note in the narratives: for these are often the best interpreters of style and expositors of the meaning of what is written.
This searching, examining, comparing, and ruminating upon the Holy Scriptures in private, in the family, in the congregation, cannot fail to make us learned in the knowledge of God, and in the knowledge of men. The Bible contains more real learning than all the volumes of men. It instructs us in all our natural, moral, political, and religious relations. Though it teaches us not astronomy, medicine, chemistry, mathematics, architecture, it gives us all that knowledge which adorns and dignifies our moral nature, and fits us for happiness. Happy the person who meditates upon it day and night! He grows and flourishes in moral health and vigor, as the trees upon the water courses. His leaf never fades--his fruit never fails.
The congregations of the saints want system in furthering their knowledge of this book. The simple reading of large portions in a desultory manner, is not without some good effect; for there is light, and majesty, and life in all the oracles of God: no man can listen to them without edification. But the profit accruing from such readings is not a tithe of that which might be obtained in the proper systematic reading and examination of them. The congregation is the school of Christ, and every pupil there should feel that he has learned something every day he waits upon his Master. He must take the Master's book with him, and, like every other good and orderly pupil, he must open it and study it with all the helps which the brotherhood, his school-fellows, can furnish for his more comprehensive knowledge of all its salutary communications.
A Christian scribe, well instructed in its contents, or a plurality of such, who can bring out of their intellectual treasury things new and old, will greatly advance the students in this heavenly science; but in the absence of such the students must be self-taught; and self-taught scholars are generally the best taught: for they cannot progress unless they study with diligence and carefully learn the rudiments of | [

every science.
To give some idea of the diligence and attention to the minutest matters, which are necessary to proficiency in the knowledge of all that is written in the New Testament, we shall suppose that the disciples have for their lesson on some particular day the Nativity of the Messiah. The second chapter of Matthew is read. After reading this chapter, or the whole of the first section of Matthew's Testimony, the elder or president for the day asks some brother, a good reader, to read what the other evangelists have testified on this subject. Mark and John being silent on the nativity, he reads Luke, 2d section, 2d chapter, from the 1st to the 41st verse. After the reading of this chapter, the following points are the subjects of inquiry, and most of them are proposed to the brethren for solution:-- [371]
1. Who was Cesar Augustus, and over what people did he reign?
2. At what period of his reign was the edict for enrolment issued, or when did the first register take effect?
3. What did Syria include, and what were its boundaries?
4. Who presided over Syria at the time of the first register?
5. Who was king in Judea at this time?
6. How far did Judea extend, or in what part of the Holy Land was it situate?
7. In what country was Jerusalem, where situated, and by what other names was it known?
8. What was the native city of Joseph?
9. Where was Nazareth situated, and in what district?
10. What was the boundary of Galilee, and what were its principal towns?
11. In what canton or district was Bethlehem, and how far from Jerusalem?
12. Who were the magians?
13. Why was 'Herod alarmed, and all Jerusalem with him,' when the magians reported the Star in the East?
14. What were the scribes and chief priests assembled by Herod, and why were they called together?
15. By what means did they decide the questions referred to them?
16. On what Prophet do they rely, and where shall the quotation be found?
17. Of what family and lineage was Joseph and Mary?
18. What does "betrothed" mean?
19. By what means did the magians find the house in which the Messiah was born?
20. Why did the magians not return to Herod?
21. Whether did the shepherds of Bethlehem or the eastern magians first pay their respects to the Messiah?
22. In what quarter of the globe does Egypt lie?
23. How far from Bethlehem?
24. How long was the Messiah kept in Egypt?
25. Who predicted his return from Egypt, and where shall it be found?
26. Who foretold the slaughter of the male infants in Bethlehem, and what instigated Herod to this cruel massacre?
27. Who succeeded Herod in the throne of Judea?
28. Why did Joseph retire to Nazareth?
29. What Prophet foretold this circumstance, and where shall it be found?
These matters being all ascertained, to which the maps, geographical and chronological indexes, and the appendix to the Family Testament will greatly contribute, some moral reflections will naturally occur; for in all these incidents are manifest the wisdom, care, and economy of our heavenly Father, his faithfulness, condescension, and love; the great variety of his instruments, and agents; the ease with which he frustrates the evil counsels and machinations of his enemies; [372] the infallible certainty of his foreknowledge; the perfect free agency of men, good and evil; the deep humiliation of his only begotten Son in all the circumstances of his nativity. Irresistible arguments in favor of his pretensions may be drawn from these ancient prophecies, from their minuteness of time, place, and circumstance; many eloquent and powerful lessons on human pride, vanity, and arrogance may be deduced from the birth-place, cradle, and family connexions of the Heir of the Universe; and many other touching appeals to the heart, which the birth, circumcision, and dedication of the Messiah, with all the incidents in Bethlehem, in Jerusalem, | [

and the Temple, connected with his first appearance on earth furnish, will present themselves with unfading freshness and beauty to the brotherhood of Christ.
A hint to the wise is sufficient. Were this method pursued only two hours every Lord's day, every disciple giving his heart to the work; and were the results then compared with the products of the scrap Doctors, or sermonizers to sleeping and dreaming hearers, no man, having any regard for his reputation for good sense, could give his vote for the popular system.
A reformation in the manner of handling the living oracles is much wanting; and the sooner and more generally it is attempted, the greater will be the regenerating influence of the brotherhood on the world. Intelligent in the Holy Scriptures, clothed with the armor of light, every disciple going forth will be a David against the Philistines--a host against the armies of the aliens. And better still, the words of heavenly favor dwelling in his heart, he will carry with him into every society a fragrance like the rose of Sharon--a sweetness of perfume like a garden which the Lord has blessed.
There appears to be wanting in some congregations a proper attention to discipline, and a due regard to decorum, in the management of such cases as do occur. In every family, and in every congregation, there is occasional need of discipline. Offences, delinquencies, and apostacies, did occur in the congregations over which the apostles either were, or had been, presidents; and they will happen again in this state of discipline and trial in which we are all placed. They must be expected; and every congregation ought be prepared to act upon the emergency with intelligence and decorum. Much injury has been done to the progress of churches, by a remissness in attention to such cases, and in the manner they have been disposed of when taken up.
Nothing can be more preposterous and revolting to every sentiment of good order and decorum, than that every offender and offence should at the very offset be dragged into the public assembly. Persons who have the care of a congregation, the seniors whose age and experience have taught them prudence, ought to be first informed of such cases; and they ought not to lay a case before the congregation till they have prepared it for the action of the congregation. Every novice is not to feel himself at liberty to disturb the congregation by presenting, on his own responsibility and at his own discretion, a [373] complaint against a brother, whether it be of a public or private nature.
But we are now speaking of the manner of procedure in such cases. The most tender regard for the feelings of all, the utmost sympathy for the offender, the most unyielding firmness in applying the correctives which the Head of the church has commanded, and the necessity of acting promptly in accordance with the law in the case, are matters of much importance.
No passion, no partiality, no bad feeling--nothing but love and piety, but faithfulness and truth; nothing but courtesy and gentleness, should ever appear in the house of God. And when any one is found guilty and excluded from the society, it should be done with all solemnity, and with prayer that the institution of Christ may be a blessing to the transgressor.
But evil-doers, or those who act not honorably according to the law of Christ, ought not to be tolerated in the professed family of God. Such persons are a dead weight on the whole society--spots in every feast of love, and blemishes upon the whole profession. One sinner destroys much good: yet separation or abscission, like amputation, is only to be used in the last stage, when all other remedies, of remonstrance and admonition, expostulation and entreaty, have failed. To prevent gangrene, or an injury to the whole body, amputation is a necessary, an indispensable remedy. More strictness, more firmness, and more tenderness in such cases, would add greatly to the moral influence of every society. A few persons walking together in the bonds of Christian affection, and under the discipline of Christ, is better than the largest assembly in which there are visibly and manifestly many who fear not God, and keep not his commandments.
In the house of God all should be purity, reverence, meekness, brotherly kindness and love. Confidence in the honesty and sincerity of our brethren, is the life of communion. To | [

feel ourselves united with them who are determined for eternal life, and resolved to seek first of all, chief of all, above all, the kingdom of heaven and the righteousness required in it, is most animating, comforting, exhilarating. But to be doubtful whether we are uniting with a mass of ignorance, corruption, and apathy, is as rottenness in the bones; love waxes cold, and then we have the form, without the power of godliness.
That the church may have a regenerating influence upon society at large there is wanting a fuller display of Christian philanthropy in all her public meetings; care for the poor manifested in the liberality of her contributions; the expression of the most unfeigned sympathy for the distresses of mankind, not only among the brotherhood, but among all men; and an ardent zeal for the conversion of sinners proportioned to her professed appreciation of the value of her own salvation, and to her resources and means of enlightening the world on the things unseen and eternal. The full display of these attributes are the most efficient means of causing the gospel to sound abroad, and to achieve new conquests amongst our fellow citizens [374] The Christian health and vigor of every church is to be estimated more by her exertions and success in bringing sinners home to God, than by all her other attainments. Too long has it been considered the duty, the almost exclusive duty of the preacher, to convert the world. He must spend his time and wear out his constitution in journeyings and preachings, while the individual members of the church are to mind their own business, seek their own wealth and domestic comfort. He must endure the heat and the cold, forsake his wife and family and commit the management of his affairs to others, while they have only to look on and pray for his success. Strange infatuation! Has he received a commission from the skies--has he been drafted out of the ranks to go to war, and they all left at home to take care of their wives and children! Some may believe this--some may imagine that it is his duty alone, to spend his time and his talents in this work, and theirs daily to labor for their own interest and behoof; but surely such are not the views and feelings of our brethren!
The work of the Lord will never progress--or in other words, the regenerating influence of the church will amount to little or nothing, so long as it is thought to be not equally the duty of every member, but the special duty of one or two, denominated preachers, to labor for the Lord.
There is either a special call, a general call, or no call at all, to labor for the conversion of the world. If there be a few specially called, the rest have nothing to do but to mind their own concerns; "to seek their own things, and not the things of Jesus Christ" If none be called, then it is the duty of none, and the Lord has nothing for his people to do--no world to convert; or, at least, nothing for them to do in that work. None of us are prepared for the consequences of either of these assumptions. It follows, then, that it is the duty of all to labor according to their respective abilities in this work. All are called to labor for the Lord. I hold that every citizen in Christ's kingdom is bound to take up arms for the King, as much as 1 am; and if he cannot go to fight the battles of the Lord, he must take care of the wives and children of those who can, and who will fight for their King and country. But the expense of the war must be borne by the subjects of the crown; and as the Lord will not have any tax-gatherers in his kingdom, but accepts only voluntary contributions, he makes a mark over against the names of those who do nothing, and he will settle with them at his return. He calls even the contributions for the gospel made by those at home, "a fragrant odor, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God."
But we are afraid of doing any thing of this sort, lest we should be like some other people, who we think have acted imprudently. Strange, indeed, that when any thing has been once abused, it is never again to be used! But I have inadvertently strayed off from my purpose. The manner in which the brethren labor for the salvation of the world, is all that comes within our prescribed limits. On this, enough has been said. Let the brethren solemnly consider the things | [

[375] that are wanting to give to their meetings that influence which they ought to exert upon themselves and upon society at large.
We are as susceptible of receiving moral and religious advantages from our own good order and decorum in the congregation, as those who attend our meetings as spectators. And in this instance, as well as in all the variety of doing good, he that waters others is again watered in return; for he that blesses others, is always blessed in blessing them. None enjoy the blessings of the gospel more fully than they who are most active and influential in blessing others. What happy seasons are those in which we see many turning to the Lord Now if we would have a perpetual feast, we must be perpetually devoted to the promotion of the happiness of others. We must live for God, as well as live to God.
In filling up these outlines, other matters still more minute, but perhaps equally important, will present themselves to the attention of the brethren. Now we cannot set about these matters too soon. The time has again come, when judgment must begin at the house of God. The people who have long enjoyed the word of life and the Christian institutions, must soon come to a reckoning. They must give an account of their stewardship, for the Lord has promised to call them to judgment. An era is just at the door, which will be known as the Regeneration for a thousand years to come. The Lord Jesus will judge that adulterous brood, and give them over to the burning flame, who have broken the covenant, and formed alliances with the governments of the earth. Now the cry is heard in our land, "Come out of her, my people, that you partake not of her sins, and that you may not receive of her plagues." The Lord Jesus will soon rebuild Jerusalem, and raise up the tabernacle of David which has so long been in ruins. Let the church prepare herself for the return of her Lord, and see that she make herself ready for his appearance.
The Regeneration of the World.
All the kingdoms of this world shall soon become the kingdoms of our Lord the King. He will hurl all the present potentates from their thrones. He will grind to power the despotisms, civil and ecclesiastic, and with the blast of his mouth give them to the four winds of heaven. The antichristian power, whether it be called Papistical, Mahomedan, Pagan, or Atheistic, will as certainly be destroyed as Jesus reigns in heaven. No trace of them shall remain. The best government on earth, call it English or American, has within it the seeds of its own destruction--carries in its constitution a millstone which will sink it to the bottom of the sea. They acknowledge not that God has set his Christ upon his throne. They will not kiss the Son. Society under their economy is not blessed. The land mourns through the wickedness of those who sit in high places. Ignorance, poverty, and crime abound, because of the injustice and iniquities of those who guide the destinies of nations. Men that fear not God, [376] that love not his Son, and that regard not the maxims of his government, yet wear the sword, and sway the sceptre in all lands.
This is wholly adverse to the peace and happiness of the world. Therefore, he will break them to pieces like a potter's vessel, and set up an order of society in which justice, inflexible justice shall have uncontrolled dominion. Jesus will be universally acknowledged by all the race of living men, and all nations shall do him homage. This state of society will be the consummation of the Christian religion in all its moral influences and tendencies upon mankind.
How far this change is to be effected by moral, and how far by physical means, is not the subject of our present inquiry. But the preparation of a people for the coming of the Lord must be the result of the restoration of the ancient gospel and order of things. And come when it may, the day of the regeneration of the world will be a day as wonderful and terrible as was the day of the deluge, of Sodom's judgment, or of Jerusalem's catastrophe. Who shall stand when the Lord does this? But all the regenerations, physical and moral, individual, congregational, or national, are but types and shadows, or means of preparation for the
Regeneration of the Heavens and the Earth.

heavens and the earth; but the Christian revelation ends with the regeneration or new creation of the heavens and the earth. This is the ancient promise of God, confirmed to us by the Christian Apostles. The present elements are to be changed by fire. The old or antediluvian earth was purified by water; but the present earth is reserved for fire, with all the works of man that are upon it. It shall be converted into a lake of liquid fire. But the dead in Christ will have been regenerated in body before the old earth is regenerated by fire. The bodies of the saints will be as homogeneous with the new earth and heavens as their present bodies are with the present heavens and earth. God recreates, regenerates, but annihilates nothing; and therefore the present earth is not to be annihilated. The best description which we can give of this regeneration, is in the words of one who had a vision of it on the island of Patmos. He describes it as far as is connected with the New Jerusalem, which is to stand upon the new earth, under the canopy of the new heaven. As the natural close of our essay on regeneration, we shall transcribe the picture of this new earth and the New Jerusalem, drawn by the direction of that Spirit to whom the future is as intelligible as the past:--
"And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the former heaven and the former earth were passed away; and the sea was no more. And I, John, saw the holy city, the New Jerusalem, descending from God out of heaven, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven, saying, Behold the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall pitch his tent among them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be among them--their God. And he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more, nor grief, nor crying; nor shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."-- [377]
"And he brought me in the spirit to a great and high mountain; and he showed me the city, the holy Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, having the glory of God; (its lustre was like to that of a precious gem, even as a jasper stone, clear as crystal;) having a great and high wall; having also twelve gates, and over the gates twelve angels, and names written upon them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel: on the east, three gates; on the north, three gates; on the south, three gates; and on the west, three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations; and on them the names of the Twelve Apostles of the Lamb. And he that spoke with me had a golden reed that he might measure the city, and its gates, and wall. And the city is square, and its length is equal to its breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs; and its length, and its breadth, and its height are equal. And he measured its wall, one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel. And the wall was built of jasper, and the city was pure gold, like refined glass. And the foundations of the walls of the city were adorned with every precious stone. The first foundation is jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald; the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, crysolite; the eighth beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprasus; the eleventh, hyacinth; and the twelfth, amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: each of the gates was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass. And I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon to shine in it; for the glory of the Lord enlightened it, and the Lamb is the light of it. And the nations of the saved shall walk in its light; and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and their honor into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut by day, (for there shall be no night there.) And they shall bring the glory | [

and the honor of the nations into it. And nothing unclean shall enter into it, nor any thing which practises abomination and falsehood; but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life."--
"And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, issuing out of the throne of God, and of the Lamb. In the midst of the broad street, and on each side of the river, was the tree of life, producing twelve kinds of fruit--producing its fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. And every curse shall cease. Ana the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be irk it; and his servants shall serve him. And they shall see his face; and his name shall be borne upon their foreheads. And there shall be no more night; and they have no need of a lamp, nor of the light of the sun; because the Lord God shall enlighten them; and they shall reign forever and ever."
A Word to the Moral Regenerators of this Age.
God, our heavenly Father, works by means, as we all confess. His means are wisely adapted to the ends he has in view. His agents are the best agents for the work he has to accomplish. He employs not physical means nor agents for moral ends and purposes. Nor does he produce physical effects by moral means and agents. He has been pleased to employ not angels, but men in the work of regenerating the world. Men have written, printed, and published the gospel for nearly two thousand years. They have perpetuated it from generation to generation. They have translated it from language to language, and carried it from country to country. They have preached it in word and in deed, and thus has it come down to our days. [378]
During the present administration of the Reign of Heaven no change is to be expected; no new mission is to be originated, no new order of preachers is to be instituted. The King has gone to a far country, and before his departure he called together his servants, and committed to them the management of his estate till he return. He has not yet come to reckon with them. They were commanded first to proclaim the doctrine of his reign; then to write it in a book, and to commit it to faithful men who should be able to teach it correctly to others. By these faithful men the records have been kept; and through their vigilance and industry they have been guarded from corruption, interpolation, and change. One generation handed them over to the next; and if ignorant and unfaithful copyists neglected their duty, others more faithful have corrected them; and now we are able to hear the words which Jesus spoke, and to read the very periods penned by the Apostles.
Thus whatever the Prophets and the Apostles have achieved since their death, has been accomplished by human agents like ourselves. Where men have not carried this intelligence in speech or writing, not one of our race knows God or his anointed Saviour. No angel nor Holy Spirit has been sent to the Pagan nations: and God has exerted no power out of his word to enlighten or reclaim savage nations. These indisputable facts and truths have much moral meaning, and ought to give a strong impulse to our efforts to regenerate the world.
The best means of doing this is the object now before us; and this is one, the importance of which cannot be easily exaggerated. There are three ways of proceeding in this case, which now seem to occupy a considerable share of public attention. These are properly called theorizing, declaiming, and preaching; on each of which we may offer a remark or two in passing.
The theorizers are those who are always speculating upon correct notions, or the true theory of conversion. They are great masters of method, and with some of them it is a ruinous error to place faith before regeneration, or repentance after faith. Heresy, with these, is the derangement of the method which they have proposed for God to work by in converting the sinner. And the true faith which is connected with salvation is apprehension of this theory and acquiescence in it. These are all theorists, heady, or speculative Christians; and with them the whole scheme of redemption is a splendid theory. These are all cold-hearted and light-headed Christians. "Take off their heads," as a Methodist declaimer once said, "and you have got all their religion!"
Our maxim is, Theory for the Doctors, and medicine for the | [

sick: Doctors fatten on theories, but the patients die who depend on theory for cure. A few grains of practice is worth a pound of theory. The mason and the carpenter build the house by rule; but he that inhabits it lives by eating and drinking. No man ever was cured physically, politically, morally, or religiously by learning a correct theory of his physical, political, moral, or religious malady. As soon might we expect to heal an ulcer on the liver by a discourse upon that organ, its [379] functions, its diseases, and their cure, as to restore a sinner by means of the theory of faith, repentance, regeneration, or effectual calling. But on this enough has already been said, and more than is necessary to convince those who can think, and who dare to reason on such themes.
The declaimers are not those only who eulogize virtue, and reprobate vice; but that large and respectable class who address themselves to the passions, to the hopes and fears of men. They are those who are so rhetorical upon the joys of heaven and the terrors of hell: who horrify, terrify, and allure by the strength of their descriptions, the flexions of their voices, the violence of their gestures, and their touching anecdotes. Their hearers are either dissolved in tears or frantic with terror. These talk much about the heart; and on their theory if a man's heart was extracted all his religion would be extracted with it. The religion of their converts flows in their blood, and has its foundation in their passions.
The preachers, properly so called, first address themselves to the understanding by a declaration or narrative of the wonderful works of God. They state, illustrate, and prove the great facts of the gospel; they lay the whole record before their hearers; and when they have testified what God has done, what he has promised, and threatened, they exhort their hearers on these premises, and persuade them to obey the gospel, to surrender themselves to the guidance and direction of the Son of God. They address themselves to the whole man, his understanding, his will and his affections, and approach the heart by taking the citadel of the understanding.
The accomplished and wise proclaimer of the word will find it always expedient to address his audience in their proper character; to approach them through their prejudices, and never to find fault with those prepossessions which are not directly opposed to the import and design of the ministry of reconciliation. He will set before them the models found in the sacred history, which show that the same discourse is not to be preached in every place and to every assembly, even when it is necessary to proclaim the same gospel. Paul's addresses to the Athenians, Lycaonians, Antiochans, to Felix, the Jailor, and king Agrippa, are full of instruction on this topic.
Augustine has written a treatise on preaching, which Luther proposed to himself as a model; but it is said that Augustine fell as far short of his own precepts as did any of his contemporaries. We all can with more facility give precepts to others, than conform to them ourselves. In Augustine's treatise, which in some respects influenced and formed the style and plan of Luther, and through him all the Protestants, there is much said on the best rhetorical mode "of exhibiting the truth to others; but it savors more of the art of the school-men, than of the wisdom of the Apostles. He labors more on the best style and mode of expressing oneself, than on the things to be said.
Our best precepts in this matter are derived rather from the books of Deuteronomy and Nehemiah, than from any other source out of [380] the New Testament. The book of Deuteronomy may be regarded as a series of sermons or discourses, delivered to the Jews by their great teacher, Moses, rather than as a part of the Jewish history. Two things in this book deserve great attention. The first is the simplicity, fulness, and particularity of his narratives of the incidents on the journey through the wilderness;--God's doings and theirs, for the last forty years, are faithfully and intelligibly laid before them. The next is the use made of these facts; the conclusions deduced, the arguments drawn, and the exhortations tendered from these facts. For a fair and beautiful specimen of this, let the | [

curious reader take up and carefully read the first four chapters of the book of Deuteronomy. The fact and the application, the argument and the exhortation, after the manner of Moses, cannot fail to instruct him.
The writings of the scribes during the captivity, teach us how to address a people that have lost the true meaning of the oracles of God. The readings, expositions, exhortations and prayers of Ezra and Nehemiah, are full of instruction to Christians in these days of our Babylonish captivity. To address a people long accustomed to hearing the Scriptures, yet ignorant of them, and consequently disobedient, is a matter that requires all the wisdom and prudence which can be acquired from Jewish and Christian records.
The manner of address, next to the matter of it, is most important. The weightiest arguments, the most solemn appeals, the most pathetic expostulations, if not sustained by the gravity, sincerity, and piety of the speaker, will be like water spilled upon the ground. A little levity, a few witticisms, a sarcastic air, a conceited attitude, or a harsh expression, will often neutralize all the excellencies of the most scriptural and edifying discourse. The great work of regenerating men is too solemn, too awfully grave and divine, to allow any thing of the sort. Humility, sincerity, devotion, and all benevolence in aspect, as well as in language, are essential to a successful proclamation of the great facts of the Living Oracles. He that can smile in his discourse at the follies, need not weep over the misfortunes of the ignorant and superstitious. He that can, while preaching the gospel, deride and ridicule the errors of his fellow-professors, is, for the time being, disqualified to persuade them to accept of truth, or gladly to receive the message of salvation.
Those preachers have been sadly mistaken who have sought popularity by their eccentricities, and courted smiles rather than souls;--who, by their anecdotes and foolish jests, told with the Bible before them, have thought to make themselves useful by making themselves ridiculous--and to regenerate men by teaching them how to violate the precepts of the gospel, and to disdain the examples of the Great Teacher and his Apostles.
It will not do. These are the weapons of this world, and no part of the armor of light. Jesus and his Apostles never sanctioned, by precept or example, such a course; and it is condemned by all sen Bible men, whether Jews or Gentiles, professors or profane. [381]
In attempting to regenerate men, we must place before them the new man, not the old man, in the preacher as well as in the discourse; and while we seek out arguments to convince and allure them, we must show them in our speech and behaviour that we believe what we preach. So did all the Apostles and Evangelists. They commended themselves to every man's conscience, in the sight of Jesus Christ.
Error must be attacked. It must be opposed by the truth. But it may be asked, whether the darkness may not be more easily dissipated by the introduction of light, than by elaborate discourses upon its nature and attributes? So with moral darkness, or error. To dissipate it most effectually, the easiest and readiest way is to introduce the light of truth. No preacher is obliged to learn all the errors of all ages, that he may be able to oppose them; nor is a congregation enlightened in the knowledge of God by such expositions of error. Present opposing errors may require attention; but, to attack these most successfully it is only necessary to enforce the opposing truths.
This is a very grave subject, and requires very grave attention. Much depends upon a rational and scriptural decision of the question, Which is the most effectual way to oppose and destroy error? To aid us in such an inquiry, it is necessary to examine how the Prophets and Apostles opposed the errors of their times. The world was as full of error in those days as it has ever been since. The idolatries of the Pagan world, and the various doctrines of the sects of philosophers, in, and out, of the land of Israel, threw as much labor into their hands as the various heresies of apostate christendom have thrown into ours.

turn the artillery of light, and to gather into a focus the arrows of day, upon the dark shades of any particular error. Their philosophy was;--The splendors of light most clearly display the blackness of darkness, and scatter it from its presence. Thus they opposed idolatry, superstition, and error of every name. Going forth in the armor of light, as the sun in the morning, the shades of the night retired from their presence, and the cheering beams of day so gladdened the eyes of their converts that they loved darkness no more. Let us go and do likewise.
An intimate acquaintance with the Holy Scriptures is the best furniture for the work of regenerating men. The best piece I have found in the celebrated treatise of Augustine on preaching is the following:--
"He, then, who handles and teaches the word of God, should be a defender of the true faith, and a vanquisher of error; should both teach what is good, and unteach what is bad; and in accomplishing this, the object of preaching, he should conciliate the adverse, excite the remiss, and pour out to the ignorant their duty and future prospects. When, however, he finds his audience favorably disposed, attentive, and docile, or succeeds in rendering them so, then other things are to be done, as the case may require. If they are to be instructed, then, to make them acquainted with the subject in question, narration must be employed; and to establish what is doubtful, resort must be had to reasoning and evidence. If they are to be moved rather than instructed, then, to arouse them from stupor in putting their knowledge into practice, and bring them to yield full assent to those things which they confess to be true, there will be need of the higher powers of eloquence; it will be necessary to entreat, reprove, excite, restrain, and do whatsoever else may prove effectual in moving the heart. [382]
All this, indeed, is what most men constantly do, with respect to those things which they undertake to accomplish by speaking. Some, however, in their way of doing it, are blunt, frigid, inelegant; others, ingenious, ornate, vehement. Now he who engages in the business of which I am treating, must be able to speak and dispute with wisdom, even if he cannot do so with eloquence, in order that he may profit his audience; although he will profit them less in this case, than if he could combine wisdom and eloquence together. He who abounds in eloquence without wisdom, is certainly so much the more to be avoided, from the very fact that the hearer is delighted with what it is useless to hear, and thinks what is said, to be true, because it is spoken with elegance. Nor din this sentiment escape the notice of those among the ancients, who yet regarded it as important to teach the art of rhetoric; they confessed, that wisdom without eloquence profited states but very little, but that eloquence without wisdom profited them not at all, and generally proved highly injurious. If, therefore, those who taught the precepts of eloquence, even though ignorant of the true, that is, the celestial wisdom 'which cometh down from the Father of lights,' were compelled by the instigations of truth to make such a confession, and that too in the very books in which their principles were developed; are we not under far higher obligations to acknowledge the same thing, who are the sons and daughters of this heavenly wisdom? Now a man speaks with greater or less wisdom, according to the proficiency he has made in the sacred Scriptures. I do not mean in reading them and committing them to memory, but in rightly understanding them, and diligently searching into their meaning. There are those who read them and yet neglect them--who read them to remember the words, but neglect to understand them. To these, without any doubt, those persons are to be preferred, who, retaining less the words of the Scriptures, search after their genuine signification with the inmost feelings of the heart. But better than both is he, who can repeat them when he pleases, and at the same time understands them as they ought to be understood."--[From the Biblical Repository, p. 574. Translated from the Latin by O. A. Taylor, of Andover, Mass.]

one well acquainted with the Scriptures makes a good theologian.
There is one thing, above all others, which must never be lost sight of by him who devotes himself to the work of regeneration. This all-important consideration is, that the end and object of all his labors is to impress the moral image of God upon the moral nature of man. To draw this image upon the heart, to transform the mind of man into the likeness of God in all moral feeling, is the end proposed in the remedial system. The mould into which the mind of man is to be cast is the Apostles' doctrine; or the seal by which this impression is to be made is the testimony of God. The gospel facts are like so many types, which, when scientifically arranged by an accomplished compositor, make a complete form, upon which, when the mind of man is placed by the power which God has given to the preacher, every type makes its full impression upon the heart. There is written upon the understanding, and engraved upon the heart, the will, or law, or character of our Father who is in heaven.
The Apostles were these accomplished compositors, who gave us a perfect "form of sound words." Our instrumentality consists in bringing the minds of men to this form, or impressing it upon their hearts. To do this most effectually, the preacher or evangelist must have the word of Christ dwelling in him richly, in all wisdom; and [383] he must "study to show himself an approved workman, irreproachable, rightly dividing the word of truth." He that is most eloquent and wise in the Holy Scriptures, he who has them most at command, will have the most power with men; because being furnished with the words of the Holy Spirit, he has the very arguments which the Spirit of God chooses to employ in quickening the dead, in converting sinners. For to the efficiency of the living word not only Paul deposes, but James and Peter also bear ample testimony. "Of his own will he has begot us, by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of his creatures." James i. 18.--"Having been regenerated, not by corruptible seed, but by incorruptible, through the word of the living God, which remains." 1 Peter i. 23. To the fruits of his labors, such a preacher with Paul may say, "To Jesus Christ, through the gospel, I have regenerated, or begotten you."
Thus, in the midst of numerous interruptions, we have attempted to lay before the minds of our readers the whole doctrine of Regeneration, in all its length and breadth, in the hope that after a more particular attention to its meaning and value, by the blessing of God, they may devote themselves more successfully to this great work; and not only enjoy more of the Holy Spirit themselves, but be more useful in forwarding the moral regeneration of the world.
To God our Father, through the great Author of the Christian faith, who has preserved us in health in this day of affliction and great distress, be everlasting thanks for the renewing of our minds by the Holy Spirit, and for the hope of the regeneration of our bodies, of the heavens and of the earth, at the appearance of the Almighty Regenerator, who comes to make all things new! Amen.
1 See Numbers viii. 7. xix. 9, 13, 20, 21. xxxi. 23. [354]
2 It may again be necessary in this fastidious age to remark, that in this essay, in order to disabuse the public mind on our use and acceptation of the term regeneration, we have taken the widest range which a supreme regard for the apostolic style could, in our judgment, allow. While we argue that the phrase bath of regeneration (Titus iii. 5.) is equivalent to immersion, as already explained, and as contradistinguished from the renewing of the Holy Spirit, of which the immersed believer is a proper subject; we have spoken of the whole process of renovation, not in the strict application of the phrase, Titus iii. 5. but rather in the whole latitude of the figure employed by the Apostle. It is not the first act of begetting, nor the last act of being born, but the whole process of conversion alluded to in the figure of generation, to which we have directed the attention of our readers. For, as often | [

before stated, our opponents deceive themselves and their hearers by representing us as ascribing to the word immersion and the act of immersion all that they call regeneration. While, therefore, we contend that being "born again," and being immersed, are, in the Apostle's style, two names for the same action, we are far from supposing or teaching that in forming the new man there is nothing necessary but to be born.
If any ask why this matter was not fully developed in our first essays on this subject, our answer is, Because we could not anticipate that our opponents would have so represented or misrepresented our views. Were a General asked why he did not arrange all his troops in the beginning of the action as he had them arranged when he triumphed over his enemy, he would reply that the manoeuvres and assaults of the enemy directed the disposition of his forces.
Our opponents contend for a regeneration begun and perfected before faith or baptism--a spiritual change of mind by the Holy Spirit antecedent to either knowledge, faith, or repentance, of which infants are as susceptible as adults; and therefore, as we contend, make the gospel of no effect. By way of reprisals they would have their converts to think that we go for nothing but water, and sarcastically call us the advocates of "water regeneration." They think there is something more sublime and divine in "spirit regeneration," and therefore claim the title of orthodox. This calumny has been one occasion of the present essay, and it has occasioned that part of it which gives the fullest latitude to the term regeneration, which analogy gives to the figure used by the Apostle. But when we speak in the exact style of the living oracles on this subject, we must represent being born again, (John iii. 5.) and regeneration, (Titus iii. 5.) as relating to the act of immersion alone. See Extra Defended, pp. 24-36. [360]
3 August 1st.--I have just now opened the Cincinnati Baptist Journal of 26th July, from which I read an approved definition of regeneration. It is orthodox, spiritual, physical, mystical, and metaphysical Regeneration. It is quoted from the "STANDARD." Regeneration, in the Evangelical Standard, is thus defined:--
"Is the sinner active in regeneration? Certainly he is. His mind is a thinking, rational principle, which never ceases to act; and therefore, when the word passive is applied to it, by Old Divines, or by Calvinists, they do not mean that it is literally dead, like inert matter, which requires a physical impulse to put it in motion. They only mean to convey the scriptural idea, that the Holy Spirit is the sole agent in regeneration, and that the sinner has no more efficient agency in accomplishing it, than Lazarus had in becoming alive from the dead. Still they grant that his mind is most active, but unhappily its activity is all against the Divine influence; as the Scriptures assure us, unregenerated persons 'do always resist' the strivings of the Spirit. 'Every imagination of the thoughts of man's heart, is only evil continually.' 'There is none that doeth good, no not one.' The sinner, therefore, instead of voluntarily co-operating with the Holy Spirit, does all he can to resist his divine influence, and prevent his own regeneration, until he is made willing by almighty power."
What a comfortable thing is this theory of regeneration! The sinner is to be regenerated when actively striving against the Divine influence. At the moment of regeneration "he has," in one sense, "no more efficient agency in accomplishing it, than Lazarus had in becoming alive from the dead;" and in another sense, he is not passive, but "does all he can to resist the Divine influence, and prevent his own regeneration, until he is made willing by almighty power." This is standard divinity; and he that preaches this divinity, is a pious, regenerated, Regular Orthodox Baptist Christian Minister! How much value, on this theory, is all the preaching in Christendom? The Holy Spirit may he busily at work upon some drunken sot, or some vile debauchee, who is as dead as Lazarus on one side, and on the other resisting the Spirit | [

Update: You can now download firmware update 4.0 on the Olympus website.
The OM-D E-M1 may have just celebrated its second birthday – a lifetime in technological terms – but it remains just as relevant as it was when it was first released. How is this possible? Well, it is partly owing to the numerous firmware updates Olympus has released to keep the flagship model up-to-date.
Focus Bracketing Mode – (From the E-M10 II) This mode allows you to take up to 99 consecutive shots (Raw and JPG) in a burst (electronic shutter) with different focus positions. These shots can then be merged in a post-production software like Photoshop or Helicon Focus. Since it uses the electronic shutter, you can use a maximum shutter speed of 1/16000s and a minimum shutter speed of 1/8s, while the ISO is capped at 3200. You can see our full review of the Focus Bracketing Mode on the E-M10 II here.
Silent Mode – (From the E-M5 II) You can use the electronic shutter to remain completely silent.
5-Axis Image Stabilisation for Movies and Digital IS – (From the E-M5 II) Extra stabilisation for movie shooting. Check out our original comparison between the E-M1 and E-M5 II to see how the 5-axis stabilisation improves the movie shooting experience.
In addition to these inherited features, the OM-D E-M1 has also received one exclusive new feature called Focus Stacking Mode, which can be found in the Focus Bracketing menu.
Like the Focus Bracketing Mode, it allows you to shoot macro shots with a depth of field larger than the minimum aperture of your lens. The difference is that it merges the shots into a single image in-camera.
Update: You may wonder why the Focus Stacking mode has only been implemented on the E-M1 and not the other recent OM-D mark II models. Olympus explained that the E-M1 has a larger buffer capacity and as such, it is the only one capable of handling the calculations required to stack the images. The process of merging the High Res Shot on the E-M5 II requires fewer calculations and this is why the E-M5 II has a smaller buffer capacity.
In both Focus Bracketing and Focus Stacking modes, you can choose a focus differential between 1 and 10. The term "focus differential" implies the distance between the in-focus areas of each shot in the composite. Selecting the right focus differential is a matter of trial and error, as an excessively high value will produce blurry bands across your image, and an excessively low value will only cover a small distance.
Notice the blurry band along the face of the subject. In this case, the focus differential was too high.
Overall the new Focus Stacking feature works surprisingly well, but it isn't without its caveats. You can only take 8 shots per burst and the resulting image is always a JPG file, meaning that your exposure has to be spot on. The camera also crops 7% of the borders of the final composited JPG, so your original composition will never be exactly the same as the final image.
What's more, any movement, be it your body or the subject, may result in one of three things: an imperfect merge, failure to produce a composite, or an error message. Regardless of the result, the camera will always save the eight original shots.
An imperfect composite with blurring and aberrations around the flower and leaves. This was caused by the wind.
The last point may lead you to think that you cannot perform Focus Stacking hand-held but this is far from the case.
Since the burst is very quick, it is possible to achieve a clean composite as long as you activate the 5-axis stabilisation and keep yourself steady. As always, the closer you focus, the more the micro-movements produced by your body will interfere with your ability to maintain the same composition throughout the burst.
Of course, to achieve the best results with Focus Stacking, it is a good idea to photograph static subjects in an environment without wind.
The results are rarely 100% perfect, with halos/blurring sometimes appearing around the subject and in scenes with lots of overlapping elements, but it is a useful for those who want a quick and easy stacking solution.

JPG works well as a "preview" of sorts, as I like to have complete control over the end result. Since the camera also records the 8 shots to the memory card in both Raw/JPG format, you have the option of merging and retouching them in post-production later on if you really feel the image is worth the effort.
The E-M1 has also received a new option for focus bracketing/stacking and flash: you can set the recharge time of the lamp between each shot if you are using third party units. With Olympus flashes, it will do it automatically. Note that the shutter speed is limited to a maximum of 1/13s since the camera uses the electronic shutter in this mode.
Happily, the Focus Bracketing bugs that appeared on the E-M10 II seem to have been resolved with firmware 4.0. The camera used to freeze after a burst or two, and the only way to get it working again was to turn it off or remove the battery. This doesn't happen on the E-M1.
It is also important to note that this mode currently only works with three M.Zuiko lenses: the M.Zuiko 60mm f/2.8 macro (the lens I used for this article), M.Zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO and M.Zuiko 40-150mm f/2.8 PRO. If you try to use it with other lenses, you'll notice that the option is blacked out in the menu.
The movie specs of the OM-D E-M1 have also been updated to (nearly) match those of the OM-D E-M5 II, the closest you'll find to a film camera in the OM-D line-up.
We get features like movie info display, movie record start with release cable (RM-UCI), time code setting support, and Slate Tones to facilitate the synchronisation of audio and video when using the Olympus Linear PCM Recorder LS-100 via USB cable. But more importantly, we now have support for 24p/25p frame rates, movie image stabilisation with 5-axis IS and 4K time lapse. The only movie feature the E-M1 won't receive is the Picture Mode Flat, a new picture profile reserved for the E-M5 II via firmware update 2.0. Unfortunately, the firmware update doesn't include the ALL-Intra codec at 72mbps that the E-M5 II has, nor the 50p or 60p capabilities.
Of all these settings, we find the 5-axis stabilisation for movies the most exciting. This is because it gives an added fluidity to your shots, so much that it almost seems you are using a steady cam. The E-M5 II was the first OM-D camera to natively use 5-axis stabilisation for video, while the previous models all used 3 axes. Like the other OM-D mark II models, you can choose between M-IS 1 and M-IS2. The former will use both sensor and software stabilisation which slightly crops the frame. It is best for static shots since it can produce an unpleasant jello effect when you are moving. M-IS2 on the other hand is better suited to movement. Note that with both options some unwanted sensor shifting can occur when the camera overcompensates for shakes.
Below you can watch our hands-on review of the updated OM-D E-M1, as well as some footage shot in 24p/25p (minute 7.50) and a comparison between the 3-axis stabilisation of the original E-M1 and the 5-axis stabilisation of the updated E-M1.
4K Time Lapse was something we'd already tested on the E-M10 II. In all honesty, we find it less a useful feature and more a gimmick that was thrown into the mix just to prove that Olympus is on the 4K bandwagon. At only 5fps, the resulting movie clip isn't very fluid. Things improve only a little in Full HD (15fps) and you get 30fps in HD ready (720p).
Below you can find a complete list of all the updates you can expect when you update the firmware in November. Most are also available on the E-M5 II (via firmware update | [

Weddell seals have biological adaptations that allow them to dive deep--as much as of hundreds of meters--while hunting, but also an uncanny ability to find the breathing holes they need on the surface of the ice. Now, researchers supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) believe they have figured out how they do it--by using the Earth's magnetic field as a natural GPS.
"This animal, we think, may be highly evolved with an ability to navigate using magnetic sense in order to find ice holes some distance apart and get back to them safely," explained Randall Davis of the Department of Marine Biology at Texas A&M University.
If the hypothesis turns out to be true, it would represent the first evidence of such a trait in a marine mammal.
Highlights of the research have been captured on video in underwater images and in interviews by Peter Rejcek and Ralph Maestas of the Antarctic Sun newspaper, which is published by the U.S. Antarctic Program (USAP). NSF manages the USAP, which coordinates all U.S. research on the Southernmost continent.
The question of how seals navigate is more than academic. It's about life and death for the animals, which like all mammals, require oxygen to breathe, despite their mostly aquatic environment. Time spent looking for a new place to surface after each dive would not only be inefficient given the energy required to swim and hunt, but failure to locate a hole in the ice means the animal would drown.
"These animals are doing a remarkable amount of exercise all while on breath hold," noted Terrie Williams, a professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of California, Santa Cruz. She is an expert on physiology in the Weddell seal, an animal whose apparent lethargy on the surface of the sea ice belies an amazing athleticism below it.
"The reason a seal wants to be efficient is that they have a limited amount of oxygen onboard," she explained. "The trick is conserving that 'scuba tank' on a dive."
Davis, Williams and another colleague, Lee Fuiman, associate director of the University of Texas' Marine Science Institute in Port Aransas, have been studying the behavior of Weddell's for decades.
The idea that Weddell seals can an unerringly follow magnetic lines dates back to the late 1990s when the team first started working together in Antarctica. Fuiman said he was struck by data from the very beginning that showed the seals returning to dive holes with amazing precision.
"The animal always found its way back. It's like he knew exactly where the hole was," Fuiman said. "I couldn't figure out how they would do that. How did they know where they were by the time they turned around?"
The behavior from dive profiles is intriguing but not conclusive. So, how to determine whether Weddell seals, like homing pigeons, are using magnetic lines to weave their way back home?
For the next three years, the team will work with a handful of Weddell seals. Each animal will be outfitted with a Video and Data Recorder and released into three areas over the course of a couple of weeks in McMurdo Sound, where researchers have precisely mapped the magnetic field.
"There should be changes in behavior when an animal is in a different magnetic field," Fuiman explained.
In other words, comparing the magnetic anomaly maps of McMurdo Sound with dive profiles from the video and data recorder should provide some answers.
"That will give us the amount of data that we need to statistically analyze the information to look for these hypothesized behaviors," Davis said.
Next year, the group will return to Antarctica in August toward the end of the Antarctic winter, when there are still 24 hours of darkness. Davis said it's possible Weddells may | [

Special Report: Coronavirus in Context With John Whyte
JOHN WHYTE: Welcome, everyone. I'm Dr. John Whyte , the chief medical officer at WebMD. COVID has changed so many aspects of our lives. It's changed the way we work, the way we live, the way we view our life. Many people are taking stock of what's important to them, how their job fits in to their life, how their health needs to be a bigger priority.
And sometimes folks aren't happy with what they're seeing. Joining me today is Dr. Phil McGraw, host of the Dr. Phil show, to help provide actionable steps to help maximize our mental health through this pandemic. Dr. Phil, thanks for joining me. It's great to see you again.
PHIL MCGRAW: Well, Dr. Whyte, thank you for having me again to talk about this really timely and important subject matter.
JOHN WHYTE: Everyone is talking about how we've been home. We've had a chance to re-evaluate what's important to us, how work fits in, how much time we spend with our kids, taking stock of our lives. Well, let's be honest, Dr. Phil, some people aren't so happy with what they're finding when they take stock of their life. So what's your advice to folks as they are depressed, are unhappy with how their life is going, and the COVID pandemic has shined a bit of a load on it?
PHIL MCGRAW: We have seen a real spike in depression and anxiety and the resultant increase in substance abuse, and even suicidal ideation.

Racial and ethnic minorities and young adults, it's really hit certain groups more than others.
But Dr. Whyte, I have to say that I always have found that pain is a good motivator. If you really acknowledge the fact that something's not right in your life, something's not working in your life, that can be a really good motivator for you to move. I've used the example before of standing on a hot highway barefooted when we were kids. It motivated you to move. You could either run back to the grass where you left or you could run on across the highway, but you wouldn't stand there in the middle.
So if you've taken stock and you're not happy, then started to-do list. Say, OK, what is it I'm not happy with? Is it my academic achievement, my career achievement, my spiritual walk, my relationship quality and my family? Those things that you're unhappy with, put them on a priority list, and say these are things I'm going to invest in.
And if they become a to-do list, then that pain, that depression can be | [

a good change agent in your life, and do something about it. You don't have to be a victim. It can become something that causes you to move, change, attain different levels.
JOHN WHYTE: You've always been big in our conversations about writing things down because there's some power to actually putting it down on paper. But then how do we go that next step and make sure that there's realistic expectation? So you can't necessarily change your job overnight. You can't necessarily or should you exit a relationship immediately, depending upon what's going on. One has to put it in perspective as well, don't they? How do they go about this journey and change, Dr. Phil?
PHIL MCGRAW: Well, that's a great question. And we don't have to leap tall buildings in a single bound. We really don't. We can first off, say, have I set a realistic attainable goal? You need to set a goal that you control, and it needs to be attainable. Like I'm not going to set a goal that I'm going to be in the NBA. That's not realistic. It's not going to happen at my age and my skill set.
But within what is relevant in my life, I can say I might want to change jobs or change station within my job. And I need to set a goal that is attainable. And I know it's attainable if I can identify the steps necessary to get me from where I am to where I want to go.
And Doctor, the difference between a dream and a goal is a timeline and accountability. Someday is not a day of the week. You can say I'm going to do this someday. Well, my calendar doesn't have someday in there. So you've got to say by June of next year, I'm going to have gone back and gotten this certification, which qualifies me for the next level at my job, or I'm going to have spent an hour a week with each of my teenagers, or I'm going to have read two books in the New Testament.
Set a goal that's attainable and then identify the steps necessary to get there and set up a timeline. And then you've got to have some accountability. Who's someone that you can check in with every Friday that says, hey, did you do what you need it to do this week? And if not, then you need to step it up and have some consequences.
And if you set an attainable goal with identifiable steps against a timeline, it's amazing how small changes can aggregate to big results when time goes by. Because the rest of this year is going to go by whether we're doing something about it or whether we're not. So you've got to set those goals and then hold yourself accountable.
JOHN WHYTE: But how does the Delta variant play into all of this? And I say it from the perspective, Dr. Phil, of looked like we were doing much better earlier this summer, right? So maybe you're making those goals, and you're trying to make steps. And then Delta surges in some areas of the country. So you can't do all activities that you might have wanted to do before, right?
It creates more fear, more anxiety. Now we hear again seems to be doing better. But for many people, it's this roller-coaster ride that everyone doesn't respond to well. So how do we help folks there with some actionable steps that helps protect their mental health? Where you think things are going OK, and then there's a detour because of Delta. And it's been happening a lot over the past year.
PHIL MCGRAW: Well, it's interesting, research shows it's not what happens in life that upsets people. It's violation of expectations that upset people. So if we expect a success only journey, if we expect everything to go a certain way and it doesn't, that's when we get upset. It's not if we don't have a success only journey expectation, then we don't get that upset. So what I tell people to do is let's examine our expectations.
Viruses are very unpredictable. We know that. And we're going to have to make decisions about how we live. And I hate that this has become a political issue, but we have to rely on the science. And if we going in, and we just say, look, I'm going | [

to make some plans here. And I know that we're going to have this virus. It's going to wax and wane, and so we may have a few setbacks. We may have some delays, but I'm expecting that.
I know that because I know viruses are unpredictable. And I know that with season change, it may affect things. I know that some people want to get vaccinated, some people don't. So everybody's not pulling in the same direction. So things may not be just lockstep predictable. But as long as I know that and I expect that there are going to be some setbacks, then when it happens, I go, OK, I expected this. I knew this was going to come. Then I roll with it.
It's only when something happens that I wasn't prepared for mentally that I tend to have anxiety or even panic. So we have to adjust our expectations. So we don't get surprised or ambushed by something that was really very predictable if we had just not been naive in setting our expectation.
JOHN WHYTE: Well, let's switch it a little bit to kids and adolescents, because we're talking about expectations. We're talking in some ways about controlling what we can control. Adolescents and kids can't always control their environment, don't have control over all aspects of their life. We often talk about how kids are resilient. And many are. But let's be practical. Some aren't. How is the COVID pandemic impacting kids?
PHIL MCGRAW: Sadly, unfortunately, I think it's impacting children developmentally, mentally, emotionally, and academically quite a bit. And it varies, as you say. Some have sailed through this. I think the younger children, it's affected academically quite a bit. I think some of the older children socially in terms of their social development and not being able to interact. It's created some developmental delays there.
We have to remember that kids can have problems, but they lack the ability to really articulate those problems. So as parents, we have to really pay attention and make sure that we're watching for those warning signs with those children. And be sure that we pick up on those, so we can go to them and say, hey, listen, are you having trouble here? How are you doing? What is it?
And don't be approaching them with shoulds and must. Oh, you should be fine with that or you must do this. But listen and give them the opportunity to vent and have a place to talk about these things because we've got to meet the children where they are and not expect them to meet us where we are. And that means asking questions and listening, listening, listening to what they have to say.
JOHN WHYTE: Let's go over some of those warning signs because it can present differently in children than it would be in adults.
PHIL MCGRAW: I think first, we have to look at those things that are most observable. And first, you're going to see irritability, anger, really short-fused. You may have a child that's maybe a little sullen or a little combative, but you have to look at it against their baseline. And so watch for changes with that. See if they're more withdrawn, less interested in things that they ordinarily would be interested in.
And I would watch really close for changes in their sleep patterns. That's a real big issue because I think having that restorative sleep is so important for their brain health. And then everything dominoes down from that. And it goes back to one of my main rules for healthy living, and that is never worry alone. Reach out and ask the questions.

Monthly Movie Round-Up
November 13, 2014 · by Dany Vasquez · in Entertainment. ·
I meant to write this post two weeks ago when October was wrapping up to actually make it a monthly round-up but alas, the best laid plans…
Good news is, because of my fabulously busy lifestyle, the delay allowed me to cross two more films off my ever-growing list. These days, it's so many movies and so little time. And since all the movies cause all the feelings, I decided to forego my usually fabulous Wednesday night of drinking wine and watching Netflix to unleash the following slew of emotions.
So starting from mid-September to now (which I guess actually makes this a two-monthly round-up…) a quick recap of my thoughts and predictions from this year's best films.
And though it goes without saying, never pass up a chance to River Song.
Spoilers sweetie.
I was lucky to catch this one at the San Diego Film Festival. I had just finished a shift and was actually debating calling it a night. I didn't know anything about the movie other than it starred J.K. Simmons and Miles Teller, which was convincing enough honestly — I was just pretty tired. I cannot emphasize how glad I am that I stayed to watch. This movie blew me away. It was like a more modern, more hyper-intense, more gory, more everything version of Drumline. But like way better because the rush oh man the rush. Like as if you were watching the best sports movie out there. Who knew drumming could be so exhilarating? 10/10 would recommend.
The Imitation Game actually doesn't come out in wide release for another few weeks but again, I was lucky to catch the screening at the San Diego Film Festival in September. It was one of my most anticipated movies and it absolutely delivered. Benedict Cumberbatch was in his element, refining the work he has been so carefully cultivating on Sherlock BBC, really taking on and delivering on the intensity and emotional nuances of Alan Turing. Really superb acting all around, especially from Keira Knightley as Joan Clarke, Turing's friend and later wife. Realizing that Alan Turing was a real person, was once a living breathing genius, makes the movie all that much more remarkable — regardless of the dramatization. In fact, I spent most of the night after I got home reading up on his life and his theories, completely fascinated by this man and the life he led. With Benedict Cumberbatch a top Best Actor contender and the movie in the run for several other awards, this is one you won't want to miss.
Not ashamed to say I went to see this as soon as it came out. By myself. On a Friday night. In downtown San Diego. Wearing sweatpants. Do not mess with me and movies. I'm as big a bookworm as I am a film snob (sometimes even more so) and I'd been keeping tabs on the making of this film for months. While I will always say the book is better than the movie, I thought the film did a phenomenal job in bringing such a complex story to life. The book is an exhilarating ride of twists and shocks and I simply could not put it down. I'm always amazed by the ability of filmmakers to bring psychological thriller stories to the big screen, with so much relying on the reader's perception and the character's inner monologues. And Gillian Flynn's screenwriting credit is even more impressive when you consider how difficult it is to transition from novel-writing to screenplay, let alone adapting your own work. David Fincher is one of my favorite directors and the casting was spot-on and the acting was on point and I may be biased but I say — even if you haven't read the book, go watch this movie. (But you should really read the book first).
Probably one of the most serious contenders out of everything I've seen. My very first thought after walking out of the theater was I think I loved it… I felt like I had just gone on a dream-sequence roller-coaster. Still processing. It would be a few days and a couple shell-shocked texts with Jonny before we would come to the conclusion that yes, we really | [

Visa options onshore with COVID 19
The Australian Government commits to protect the health of Australians, supporting businesses and jobs, and securing food supply while we combat the COVID-19 virus. Hence, there are some protocols given for the Australian visa in Covid-19.
The Government is making a number of changes to temporary visa holder arrangements during the coronavirus crisis. These are being done to protect the health of our community, safeguard job opportunities for Australians, support critical industries, and assist with the rapid recovery post the virus.
The priority of the Government during this period is public health. All temporary visa holders should follow public health advice with respect to COVID-19
Remaining in Australia lawfully
It is important that temporary visa holders retain a lawful status wherever possible. Whatever a person's visa status, there is no barrier to engaging with the health system if they are sick.
Visitor Visa holder
Visitor visa holders in Australia should return home if it is possible to do so.
If you cannot return to your country, you need to maintain a valid visa and engage with the health system.
Visitor visa holders should apply for a new visa before their current visa expires to maintain their lawful status.
If a visitor has a "No Further Stay" condition on their visa (including 8503, 8534, or 8535) and less than two months' validity remaining, they can request a waiver of this condition to allow them to lodge a new visa application.
Information on extending a stay in Australia if you are unable to depart is available at:
https://covid19.homeaffairs.gov.au/
The Government is taking a flexible approach in relation to student visa conditions where COVID-19 and associated travel restrictions have prevented these conditions, such as attendance at class or the use of online learning. To know about student visa Click Here
The Government has temporarily relaxed the enforcement of the 40-hour work limitation for the following critical sectors:
International students who are existing workers in major supermarkets to help get stock on shelves due to high demand (implemented 7 March). These students will be required to return to the standard 40 hours a fortnight during term time from 1 May 2020
International students who are existing workers in the aged care sector are able to work more than 40 hours a fortnight (implemented on 18 March 2020)
Student visa holders who enrolled in nursing can undertake work to help and support the health effort against COVID-19.
The arrangements only apply to existing workers in their existing roles.
As the COVID-19 situation develops, it will determine whether similar measures require in other critical sectors to ensure the supply of essential goods and services to Australians.
Student visas holders are already permitted to work in Australia with a usual limitation of 40 hours per fortnight.
If you are unable to support yourself, you should make arrangements to return to your usual country of residence, noting that it is a condition of all student visas that holders have access to funds to support themselves for the duration of their stay in Australia.
New Zealand 444 Special Category Visa (SCV)
New Zealanders and Australians have reciprocal arrangements whereby they can each stay and work in each other's country
If you are a protected SCV New Zealand citizen and meet other eligibility requirements, you will be eligible for all welfare payments, including the Job Seeker and Job Keeper payments.
If you are not a protected SCV New Zealand citizen and you hold a TY444 visa, you will still be eligible for the Job Keeper payments through your employer.
What is a protected New Zealand citizen?
A person is a protected SCV New Zealand citizen holder if they fall within one of the following
in Australia on 26 February 2001
in Australia for 12 months in the 2 years immediately before this date
assessed as a protected SCV by Services Australia holder before 26 February
If you are unable to support yourself, are not eligible for any of the above payments, and
unable to find any employment, you should consider returning to New Zealand.

TV fan Meyers is ready for his Emmy close-up
It's his first time hosting the awards, but it might not be his last.
TV fan Meyers is ready for his Emmy close-up It's his first time hosting the awards, but it might not be his last. Check out this story on app.com: http://on.app.com/VKsrUa
USA TODAY Published 6:43 a.m. ET Aug. 22, 2014 | Updated 9:35 a.m. ET Aug. 23, 2014
USA TODAY's TV critic Robert Bianco tells Carly Mallenbaum why this year's award winners are more unpredictable than usual, and shares his picks for best drama, comedy and mini-series.

Don't look for a selfie moment at Monday's 66th Primetime Emmy Awards (NBC, 8 ET/5 PT). No cellphone companies have come forward with product-placement deals like the one Ellen DeGeneres gamely offered at this year's Oscars, and Emmy host Seth Meyers isn't happy.
Emmy hopefuls play the angles to nab trophies
"We're not getting many offers, which we're taking very, very personally," he jokes.
Instead, look for Meyers to yuk it up on a Monday in late August, a scheduling hiccup snafu you can blame on NBC's Sunday Night Football and MTV's Video Music Awards, airing Sunday.
Meyers' goal? "Really good jokes are the best things for me to have," says the former Saturday Night Live head writer and Weekend Update anchor, who now hosts NBC's Late Night. "As someone who doesn't have other skills as a showman" — he neither sings nor dances — "I have to build momentum early on. I would love to walk off after the monologue and think, 'We're well on our way.'"
It's especially urgent to set an early tone because of the fatigue factor that sets in at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles for a three-hour ceremony that hands out 26 awards and quickly racks up disappointment. "I'm aware at the Emmys that the longer the night goes, the more people are sitting in their seats having not won the Emmy," Meyers says. "So they're a less receptive comedy audience."
He's a self-described fan — "I watch a ton of television" — and says there's been a lot to like this year, listing Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Fargo and True Detective, along with Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Parks and Recreation, led by his SNL pals Andy Samberg and Amy Poehler. "It's been a very good year for cable and multiplatform" viewing, he says. "I think you're going to hear the word Netflix a lot in the monologue." Only fitting, as the streaming service has 31 nominations and won seven awards at Saturday's Creative Arts ceremony.
Meyers has experience as a two-time host of the ESPY Awards and 2011's White House Correspondents Dinner, and hopes to echo — but not imitate — the Emmy-hosting stints of fellow late-night hosts including Jimmy Fallon and Conan O'Brien. "The goal is to do the best version of yourself," Meyers says. "They built the show around their skills, and that's what made people enjoy it."
Producer Don Mischer, helming his 14th Emmy telecast since 1993, says a successful telecast "all comes down to whether the show has some terrific wins and unexpected wins…and whether people make wonderful, moving, emotional acceptance speeches," preferably in their allotted 40 seconds. "As a producer, you have no control over either of those." But he praised Meyers as an eager, smart TV fan who can quickly respond to unpredictable moments.
Sprinkled among a few surprise taped bits will be a tribute to Robin Williams, who died last week, led by pal Billy Crystal. "We know he'd want something that reflects the fun he gave all of us," Mischer says.

Development and modification of a virtual source model for Monte Carlo based IMRT verification
R. Fogg, I. Chetty, J. J. DeMarco, N. Agazaryan, T. D. Solberg
A Monte Carlo based phase space source model has been developed and modified to allow for IMRT dose verification. The model allows for the simulation of arbitrary intensity distributions without the inefficient step of calculating particle transport through the field defining collimators. The components of the linear accelerator treatment head were simulated using the code MCNP4B, providing the photon fluence in matrix form, at a plane above the micro-multileaf collimator. This map samples the starting particle's position, energy and direction. For IMRT treatments, the leaf sequence is obtained from a translation algorithm, which incorporates leaf leakage and transmission. A second program reads the sequence file and constructs the corresponding intensity map for the Monte Carlo simulation, accounting for leakage. The sum of all segments provides a treatment-specific intensity map, which is multiplied by the discrete phase space fluence map, producing the cumulative fluence grid for the leaf sequence. The modified phase space source was benchmarked against standard depth dose and profile ion chamber measurements for several field sizes. The agreement between the calculation and measurement for all benchmark fields is well within Task Group 53 criteria. The modified source model was also compared with film measurement in various theoretical and clinical examples, for both single field conformal and IMRT treatments. Small differences are seen in regions with highly irregular leaf positions, but in general there is good agreement. The unique features of this modified phase space model make it a valuable and accurate tool for IMRT dose verification.

abstract = "A Monte Carlo based phase space source model has been developed and modified to allow for IMRT dose verification. The model allows for the simulation of arbitrary intensity distributions without the inefficient step of calculating particle transport through the field defining collimators. The components of the linear accelerator treatment head were simulated using the code MCNP4B, providing the photon fluence in matrix form, at a plane above the micro-multileaf collimator. This map samples the starting particle's position, energy and direction. For IMRT treatments, the leaf sequence is obtained from a translation algorithm, which incorporates leaf leakage and transmission. A second program reads the sequence file and constructs the corresponding intensity map for the Monte Carlo simulation, accounting for leakage. The sum of all segments provides a treatment-specific intensity map, which is multiplied by the discrete phase space fluence map, producing the cumulative fluence grid for the leaf sequence. The modified phase space source was benchmarked against standard depth dose and profile ion chamber measurements for several field sizes. The agreement between the calculation and measurement for all benchmark fields is well within Task Group 53 criteria. The modified source model was also compared with film measurement in various theoretical and clinical examples, for both single field conformal and IMRT treatments. Small differences are seen in regions with highly irregular leaf positions, but in general there is good agreement. The unique features of this modified phase space model make it a valuable and accurate tool for IMRT dose verification.",

Votes due by Wednesday at 5:00 PM: Apologies for the late post- had a whirlwind weekend including a stop in Indiana to see some old friends. Without further filler, the results of the last match:

Big Balls (AC/DC) over I'm Sticking With You (Velvet Underground), 88.2-71.9.
Spirit of the Radio (Rush) over Lift Her Pull Her (Atmosphere), 101.8-84.4.
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (The Band) over Kokomo (Beach Boys), 125.3-90.5.

You Wreck Me (Tom Petty) over Don't Keep Me Wonderin' (Allman Brothers), 92.6-92.3 (Squeaker!)
In this next round, both Led Zeppelin (1-3) and Velvet Underground (0-3) face elimination. Link is here, and good luck to all.
Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin) vs. As (Stevie Wonder)
Back In Black (AC/DC) vs. Femme Fatale (Velvet Underground)
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (U2) vs. Rusty Cage (Soundgarden)

About g-mo
The day I was born, Michael Jackson's Thriller album was at the top of the Billboard 200. I've been trying my best to live up to that expectation ever since.

The Waiting (Tom Petty) vs. Ain't Wasting Time No More (Allman Brothers) 6 : 6.5

jacobpress says:
I went back and forth about which version of As to include and went with the original even though it's a little long. I actually think the crescendo at the end is what makes the song great, but for those of you with limited attention spans, here's the radio version:
http://grooveshark.com/#!/s/As/ljnia?src=5
Wait! I take it back. I just listened to it and what was listed as the album version is actually the radio cut. Guillermo, can you post the seven minute version? I should have specified the length since a lot of these grooveshark links are faulty:

OMG – Some of you may be interested in this. I know I am!:

That's a cool venue- just saw the Kraftwerk tribute there!
Back In Black (AC/DC) 5 This is a great riff that's suffered terribly from radio overplay. I wonder if anyone has done the math and figured out the odds of hearing either this or You Shook Me All Night Long at any given moment on a classic rock radio station. My guess is that it's somewhere between 1:10 and 1:20. A real shame considering that AC/DC has a lot of good stuff, much of which is better than these two offerings.
vs. Femme Fatale (Velvet Underground) 8 Also has a great riff, not nearly as overplayed.
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (U2) 4
vs. Rusty Cage (Soundgarden) 4
Ophelia (The Band) 7 I knew this pairing would lead to some tough choices
vs. Wouldn't It Be Nice (Beach Boys) 9
The Waiting (Tom Petty)7
vs. Ain't Wasting Time No More (Allman Brothers) 8
Nobody's Hero (Rush) 4
vs. Millie Fell Off The Fire Escape (Atmosphere) 6
Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin) vs. As (Stevie Wonder) = 6.5 to 6
Back In Black (AC/DC) vs. Femme Fatale (Velvet Underground) = 9.5 to 5.5
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (U2) vs. Rusty Cage (Soundgarden) = 6 to 9.5
Kinda liked the U2 song, didn't like it when it was around. Very un-U2, and this is coming from someone whose favorite album of theirs is Achtun Baby. But as for Soundgarden, THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN ABOUT!!!! It's gonna be too dark to sleep again.
Ophelia (The Band) vs. Wouldn't It Be Nice (Beach Boys) = 8.5 to 9
Ouch. Tough one.
The Waiting (Tom Petty) vs. Ain't Wasting Time No More (Allman Brothers) = 6.5 to 7
I never thought I'd say this, I liked that Allman Brothers | [

song.
Nobody's Hero (Rush) vs. Millie Fell Off The Fire Escape (Atmosphere) = 4 to 3.5
As a big fan of Rush and a bigger fan of Ween, this sounds like a Ween song. Including the lyrical content. I've never heard this before. It gets a couple extra-points for the ballsy intro verse.
Applebee's?
Greg Burch says:
Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin): 7
As (Stevie Wonder): 9
I see Jacob wanted us to vote on the album cut of As (great decision by the way, it's the only way to truly get the full emotion of the song). One of my favorite Stevie tracks. Immigrant Song is what I would consider the epitome of Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant's howling compared with Jimmy Page's and John Paul Jones great riffs and John Bonham going to town on the drums. This IS Led Zeppelin to the core. As is just a beautiful song about something that can never be put into the right words. I've gotta go with the Wonder.
Back In Black (AC/DC): 9
Femme Fatale (Velvet Underground): 2
Sorry, this is one of those few amazing AC/DC songs. Bon Scott is sadly gone, but this didn't hold AC/DC back they resurrected themselves with an opus of a rock album. Brian Johnson is just a monster on lyrics, Phil Rudd with some catchy ass drumming and Angus on guitar kills it again, this song does not miss a step. I know it's played a lot, but it's for a good reason. The last round was fun, it seems Joe went for the jugular here to end this series and boy do I think he nailed it. Femme Fatale might have been a big hit for Velvet Underground, but I see nothing here that can compete musically with Back In Black.
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (U2):4
Rusty Cage (Soundgarden): 7
This was the Soundgarden I was hoping we would get to. Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me might have been a big track for U2 fans, but it just doesn't hit the right chords with me. I like it when groups try to go out and experiment with new sounds, this just isn't one of those songs that worked for U2. The only real positive is that the Edge actually gets to step out and let loose a little more here than usual. Chris Cornell and crew are back at their punk/grunge roots here, thank you Kim Thayil for some nasty guitar licks. This one goes to Soundgarden easily.
Ophelia (The Band): 5
Wouldn't It Be Nice (Beach Boys): 9
The tracks off of Pet Sounds are almost always going to win, another classic. Beautiful arrangements, amazing harmonies, great lyrics, catchy riffs, damn near perfect. Ophelia never stood a chance, not to hate on The Band. Ophelia is a fun song that I thoroughly enjoy. I really dig on those horns. If you can put a smile on my face it can't be a bad song. It's just when compared to a near perfect song it just doesn't have a chance.
The Waiting (Tom Petty): 4
Ain't Wasting Time No More (Allman Brothers): 7
Gregg's great tribute to his recently deceased brother. I don't need no gypsies telling me why either, let's just get high. Allman Brothers all the way.
Nobody's Hero (Rush): X
Millie Fell Off The Fire Escape (Atmosphere): X
Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin) vs. As (Stevie Wonder) 8 – 6
I love the imagery that Immigrant Song evokes. The song is pretty far out. I really didn't want to sound like a hippy there, but it happened. The music and lyrics combine to create a picture in my head and sets a mood that just works for me and always has. Solid Stevie song with incredible harmony, as usual. But Immigrant Song does something more for me.
Back In Black (AC/DC) vs. Femme Fatale (Velvet Underground) 9 – 2

U2 gets bonus points for getting on the Batman Forever soundtrack. Just kidding. U2 has its moments here but it just doesn't have the drive like Rusty Cage. I'll take this Soundgarden song over pretty much any other. If there ever was a guitarist/drummer tandem that could make a song sound like a freight train, it's Kim Thayil and Matt Cameron.
Ophelia (The Band) vs. Wouldn't It Be Nice (Beach Boys) 5.5 – 6
The Waiting (Tom Petty) vs. Ain't Wasting Time No More (Allman Brothers) n/a
Nobody's Hero (Rush) vs. Millie Fell Off The Fire Escape (Atmosphere): 2 – 7
I don't know what to say. I love RUSH. But I couldn't take this song. I like the Atmosphere song. Reminds me of Big L School days, which is one of the few hip hop songs I really love. This was no contest.

Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin) vs. As (Stevie Wonder) 8-6.5

The Waiting (Tom Petty) vs. Ain't Wasting Time No More (Allman Brothers) 7.5
Nobody's Hero (Rush) vs. Millie Fell Off The Fire Escape (Atmosphere) N/A
George's Wife says:
7.5 – 6
Stevie usually gets it right, but it seems he got a little carried away with this one. And it was just no match for Page shredding it on his Gibson Les Paul.
The only thing "Back in Black" was missing was me in my car with the windows down and my stereo cranked up to 11.
I grew up in a house that was ever-filled with the sounds of War, Joshua Tree, Achtung Baby, and the lesser known Zooropa. While my fanhood has fallen off with their more recent releases, I still find it hard not to love most anything I hear from this foursome. While not the best in their catalog, "Hold Me, Thrill Me" is a fun and cheeky song that almost pokes fun at the movie for which it was written, and its full sound delivers courtesy of the Edge's signature sound juxtaposed with classical violins. When I queued up "Rusty Cage," however, it felt like Kim Thayil's opening riff was meant to follow. My only critique for Soundgarden is that I wish the song ended as strongly as it began.
Although Levon considered "Wheels on Fire" to be one of his favorite albums with The Band, this track just didn't do it for me. While instrumentally well constructed, the New Orleans tempo in "Ophelia" somehow didn't feel genuine. And I agree with Greg…I've been digging the "Pet Sounds" tunes.
While I do appreciate that Rush decided to put out something that was just a straight up rock song, "Nobody's Hero" was no match for "Millie." The lyrics painted a clear picture of a tragic scene, and the beat was just so funky. And when the song was over, I was disappointed it ended so soon.
Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin) vs. As (Stevie Wonder) = 8.5 to 5.5
Back In Black (AC/DC) vs. Femme Fatale (Velvet Underground) = XXX
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (U2) vs. Rusty Cage (Soundgarden) = 5 to 5
It's like, i think i get it. the dude's gonna break his rusty | [

Ophelia (The Band) vs. Wouldn't It Be Nice (Beach Boys) 8.25 t0 6.0
Sorry Team Zeppelin. I love Led Zeppelin. I LOVE Led Zeppelin. I love the lyrics of the Immigrant Song, I love the idea of a song about Viking exploration.

This is a lyrical and musical foundation of so many amazing, and well also terrible heavy metal songs (for lyrics see: Amon Amarth, for music see: everyone else that isn't Black Sabbath), but it can't win against As. This is a magnificent song. I'll be some cheesy shithead, but sometimes a song about love and faith can trump a song about Viking conquest.
Back in Black (AC/DC) XX
Femme Fatale (The Velvet Underground with Nico) XX

Media Outlets, Including ESPN, Kept Some Standards In The Syracuse Case -- But Not Others
By: Jay Hart
For eight years, two news organizations possessed an audio tape that screamed something was horrifically wrong -- that Bernie Fine, an assistant basketball coach for Syracuse University, might have sexually abused a teenage boy. Yet, for all that time, neither ESPN nor the Post-Standard newspaper of Syracuse reported the tape to anyone, authorities included.
The immediate question is, why not? If the media are rightly aghast that Penn State football coach Joe Paterno didn't take enough action with his knowledge of Jerry Sandusky's alleged molestations, shouldn't news outlets be held to the same standard regarding Bernie Fine?
On the tape, Bobby Davis, a former ball boy for the Syracuse basketball team, has a conversation with Fine's wife, Laurie, which provides a strong indication she knew about the alleged molestations.
"I know everything that went on, you know," Laurie Fine says on the tape. "I know everything that went on with him. … Bernie has issues, maybe that he's not aware of, but he has issues." Asked by Davis if he's the only person Bernie Fine sexually abused, Laurie Fine says, "No … I think there might have been others."
Paterno was fired for not taking enough action in 2002 when he failed to notify authorities of alleged sexual abuse by Sandusky, a former assistant coach under him. The same questions of inaction are now being raised regarding ESPN and the Post-Standard, both of which were at least aware of Bernie Fine's alleged misconduct as early as 2003.
Even if they didn't have enough corroborating evidence to publish a story, shouldn't they have turned the tape over to law enforcement authorities?
Isn't there an obligation to do so when the alleged victim is a minor? Especially when you possess an audio tape on which the alleged abuser's wife says, "I think there might have been others?"
As in the case of Paterno and Penn State, the timeline is important.
On Nov. 27, both ESPN and the Post-Standard released the audio taped phone conversation between Davis and Laurie Fine. The conversation reportedly took place in 2002. Shortly thereafter, Davis provided the Post-Standard with a copy of the tape. He provided ESPN with a copy in 2003.
According to reports, beginning in 2002 the Post-Standard conducted a six-month investigation into the allegations, which included an interview with Laurie Fine. She confirmed her conversation with Davis, but denied some of the remarks on the tape. The paper chose not to publish a story because it could not verify the allegations. The Post-Standard reportedly did not go to the police with the tape.
ESPN has a similar reason for not going ahead with the story eight years ago. According to Vince Doria (pictured at left), ESPN's director of news, Davis brought the allegations to ESPN's attention in 2003 and provided three people he said would corroborate his story. "Those sources either told us that was not the case or would not talk with us," Doria said in an online discussion released by ESPN.
Doria said that while the audio recording "was clearly a damning tape in terms of [Laurie Fine's] characterization of her husband," she "never directly acknowledged to have witnessed any of these actions first-hand." Because of that and the fact that ESPN did not generate the tape and could not verify its validity -- the network says it did not have a baseline of Laurie Fine's voice to compare it with in order to authenticate it -- "we felt in 2003 that the material we had did not meet the standards for reporting the story," Doria said.
ESPN says it did not notify authorities of the allegations because Davis had gone to the Syracuse police in 2002 and been told the statute of limitations had expired. (In New York, the statute of limitations is five years.) "So we were fully under the impression that the police had been made aware of the story and had decided not to pursue it," Doria said.
Fast forward eight years. Prompted by the Penn State abuse scandal, a friend of Davis' came forward to corroborate his story one | [

Getting too Caught up in Politics
March 5, 2007 by GayPatriotWest
There are days when I tire of writing about politics — and wonder if I will ever address the topic again. I have been delighted that a number of conservative writers have been changing their mind about my man Rudy, coming to believe that the GOP may well nominate a social liberal who is conservative on the key issues. As Rich Hailey (via Instapundit) put it "Conservatism has never been dominated by the religious right the way liberals have always pictures them to be."
And I've been delighted to note (as per Bruce's post) how many conservative bloggers, pundits and politicians have criticized Ann Coulter for her lame attempt at humor. I have long been critical of Ms. Coulter, seeing her as more interestec in provoking controversy than in promoting conservative ideas. It's too bad that too many on the left would rather use her comments as an occasion to bash conservatives than to acknowledge that most conservatives have condemned her remarks. And at least acknowledge that some conservatives don't engage in such banter and do favor civil discourse.
It just seems that sometimes we get so caught up in politics that we refuse to acknowledge that our political adversaries aren't the demons we imagine them to be — or wish they were (to make it easier to so demonize them).
We have so many means today to communicate, yet it seems that all too often have we use those means not to foster serious discussion, but instead to vent our frustrations. There are too many people like Ann Coulter out there — on both sides of the political aisle — eager to be outrageous just to get attention. It seems more a sign of loneliness than civil discourse.

Strange that in the post below, you titled it 'leftist hate speech'. Yet you do not consider Coulter said to be 'rightist hate speech'?
It's okay for conservatives to say faggot, but you eviscerate 'lefties' for saying it?
Conservatives really soft-pedal around Coulter. Handling her with kid gloves, almost apologizing for her.
That some conservatives are actually taking something of a stand against Coulter is quite remarkable.
I view Ann as little more than a woman flashing her panties at everyone to shock them. Anything meaningful she has to say is lost among the faggot, raghead, or a dozen other racist, bigoted, hateful remarks.
Why conservatives continue to coddle Ann is beyond me.
I half thought that Ann was looking to be Romney's second wife, given her gushing over him.
Um, Elais, conservatives, at least the intelligent ones, have, by and large, criticized Ms. Coulter. And you're attaching your comment to the post of a conservative writer who has been criticizing her on this very blog for nearly two years.

You are delighted by how many liberals pretending to be conservatives have criticized Ann Coulter? Really?
I am one of those "too many people like Ann Coulter" and I am neither eager nor outrageous. What is the deal with that?

sticks and stones……..may break my bones, but words will never hurt me………….

Americans need to get thicker hides before PCness and the cult of islam murder all of us…………

I'm in stitches of laughter here. Just like the conservatives in the audience were when she made "her lame attempt at humor" (which was a complete hit with the CONSERVATIVES in the audience).
Wow. The mental gymnastics you will put yourself through to protect yourself from the cognitive dissonance is astounding. And fascinating.
Just like the conservatives in the audience were when she made "her lame attempt at humor"
She made a comment that really hurt nobody and some people thought it was funny. Boo F'ing Hoo.
What really hurts is that there was some truth to what she said. To whit:
but it turns out that you have to go into rehab if you use the word 'faggot,'
What she said has come true. Speak your mind and the PC Gestapo will come knocking. Wanna know what offends me? People who are so stuck on themselves fighting over each other to see who can be more offended.
Give me a freakin' break. Nobody here pretending to be offended will be scarred for life and nobody will remember it next week.
Looks like Edwards now has cover for hiring his Christian bashing blogger babes.
In a more perfect world, I might be inclined to agree with you, Dan. However, civil discourse to liberals mean that you bend over and lube up. "Bipartisanship" means that you give up what you believe in and genuflect at their feet. There have been way too many times when folks have bent over backwards in the name of "civil discourse" only to be screwed over by the trash that is the liberal left. They have no idea of what civil discourse is. You can hand them all the flowers you want, they'll just cram it down your throat.
Take, for example, Bush's "New Tone". He bent over backwards to the liberals and got screwed over for it. He kept Clintonistas in Washington and got stabbed in the back (their form of gratitude). Lord BJ fires federal attorneys, nobody bats an eye. Bush fires federal attorneys and gets subpoenas for his trouble.
I've tried "civil discourse" and it gets you nowhere. No matter what you do or say, you're going to get screwed. The choices are to bend over and smile, or tell them to go to hell. As far as I'm concerned the liberals who, despise everything you and/or I stand for and believe in, can drop down, fifth ring, cook.

Is comment #5 a mad lib?

Hey Dan-
In my view, conservatives have a far worse record where hate speech is concerned. All of the examples I've seen so far of lefties and liberals using hate speech are hateful toward an INDIVIDUAL — e.g., I hate George Bush. But conservatives, like Coulter, demonize entire GROUPS of people with their words. That's the difference. Liberals might say hateful and awful things (I know I have), but people like Coulter say hateful things not only about individuals, but about groups of people who have been politically disenfranchised throughout American history. So it's a big difference, in my view, if I say "I hate Bush," versus, "he's a faggot." Bush, so far as I can recall, is not a member of a disenfranchised minority.
All that said, I am personally opposed to regulating speech of any kind, whether formally or informally. I appreciate the honesty of Ann Coulter, as I believe it exposes for all the world the true sentiments of her constituency. I'd rather have honesty than PC prettiness. I do not believe that the basic sentiments of Bush, Cheney, or Sam Brownback are any different in quality or character than those of AC.
I also understand your sentiments regarding the lowest-common-denominator character of today's political discourse. There was a time when it was not a dirty word to be called a liberal in America. Liberals, after all, were the first to champion individual liberty (John Locke) and relatively | [

free markets (Adam Smith). Now, though, being called a liberal is tantamount to being called anti-American, weak, a sissy, a threat to American values, and so on. Where did this come from?
In my view, it stems from the end of the cold war. I know this is only my view, but I believe conservatives are a paranoid group who MUST have an enemy in their discourse. Their enemy used to be communism and communists. But when the cold war was over, even though it was a victory for conservatives and for Reagan in particular, it was a psychic crisis for conservatives. Who to demonize? Who to fear? Liberals became, in the conservative imagination/fantasy, the new communists. They believe we are responsible for all that is wrong in America, that we are a threat to the American way of life, and therefore that there's no real reason to have a conversation with us. Think of the very title of Ann Coulter's book, "How to talk to a liberal…..if you must."
So, for example, when I criticized the Iraq war, your partner Bruce called me an "al Qaeda sympathizer." Or when John Edwards advocates getting out of Iraq, etc., he gets called a faggot or, as another poster on this blog called him, the "Breck girl." Notice the feminizing language. Pinko commie? Ring a bell? Discursively, it's the same tactic. Whenever someone gets feminized, you can be sure it's because his/her opponent is fearful and paranoid, and that they wish to have no real conversation with this person, because they would lose a real debate.
I guess the reason I wanted to come on this blog, Dan, was to try to understand the mind of gay conservatives. In the late 1970s, Ronald Reagan ran an ad campaign in the south. In the TV ads he ran, it showed a picture of Harvey Milk, and the words read "the gays have elected a mayor in San Francisco." then the picture switched to Jimmy Carter, and the words read, "now they're trying to elect a president." This is the very man who was tauted as a hero on this very blog. To be honest, it boggles my mind.
There are lots of reasonable republicans (e.g., Guilianni, even though I disagree with him on a lot of matters, Olympia Snowe, Lincoln Chaffe, Arlon Specter etc.). There are also a lot of idiotic democrats (Clinton at the top of the list). What I don't understand, though, is why gay people, who have so often been used by Republicans as a symbolic demon in order to rouse their religious base, would support a party of fear-mongering and paranoic demonization. Granted, dems have failed on all fronts where gay rights are concerned. But they've never promoted fearing homosexuals the way republicans have in order to get votes.
Chet, we disagree. Note how quickly most conservatives were to criticize Ms. Coulter. We rarely see those on the left so quick to fault their own for similarly nasty rhetoric — or worse.
Michigan-Matt says
Chet, was that the same "Reagan" who, two years earlier, stood up against the prevailing political wisdom and worked to defeat the Briggs Amendment in CA? You know th 1978 Briggs Proposition, right?
http://online.logcabin.org/about/history.html
Or was that a "Reagan ad" that was created, produced and placed by a group of ReliRighters and social conservatives in the Dixie South? Can you cite where that is a Reagan Campaign ad? And I don't mean just from the DailyKos or BlogAmerica, ok?
Honestly, I can't understand how, after self-professing that you read this blog, you can still support the homopohobic Democrat Party… I guess you read the blog but never learn? never progress? just taunt and spite?
Peter Hughes says
Since when have I been a "disenfranchised minority?" I've voted in every election I could since I turned 18.
This "victim mentality" will cripple you in the long run, Chet. Have you ever tried therapy?

ateful toward an INDIVIDUAL — e.g., I hate George Bush. But conservatives, like Coulter, demonize entire GROUPS of people with their words. That's the difference.
Howard Dean: "I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for".
Thank you. Move along, please.
"Honestly, I can't understand how, after self-professing that you read this blog, you can still support the homopohobic Democrat Party…"
Hilarious!!! Thank you for making my afternoon!!
Dan, with respect, I think your point in this posting is off base and the earlier stunt to condemn Coulter and ask the American Conservative Union to keep her away from CPAC in 2008 is silly. The point is off base because the GP blog is all about politics, conservatism, gays… when you tire about writing on those subjects, you can try another… it's ok.
The stunt (CPAC, don't bring Annie back!) is also off base. She was speaking before a group of mostly college aged kids –and I mean kids like we were: button down shirts, loaded with political pins, striped ties with chinos and navy blue hopsack blazers –immature by their station in life. The room was packed with kids… and her "speech" was more like a comedy skit of one-liners than a discourse on American political debate. It wasn't a serious speech… it was crude humor and perfect for the kids in the room.
She was cracking jokes… like JonStewart or StevenColbert. When those guys drop a bomb, the audience reacts… they react… life goes on. When Coulter did it… the PC police come to the forefront, dust off their tsk-tsk finger pointing and declare her DOA.
Guess what? Your reaction and others' made her point self-fulfilling.
Like someone noted here a few weeks ago (I think it was VdaK) when the issue was a case of gays not having thick enough skins, we are the biggest class of Victims around. The GayLeftBorg mentality even affects some conservative gays from time to time.
Ann Coulter doesn't need rehab. She's an irritant for those who want to debate issues seriously… otherwise, she's a politico shock jock that's matched by many on the Left. She's great fodder for the evening and Sunday news shows… she's spice and little that's nice.
Would I let her sit my kids? Hell no. Would I bring them to hear her? Hell no. Would I go out of my way to hear her? Hell no.
But then, I wouldn't for JimmyJunkYardDogCarville or HowieScreaminDean or JonStewart.
NDT — Republicans are not members of a disenfranchised minority group. Gays are. That's why Dean's statement, while mean, does not rise to the level of hate speech. There's a qualitative difference in saying "I hate Republicans," and "I hate niggers," or "I hate faggots."
Move along please?……don't be so full of yourself. If you were that good your blog would have as many visitors as this one does.
I know the comment wasn't addressed to me, but forgive me if I respond anyway.
For most of us, it's called picking the lesser of two evils, and it's how we vote in this country, because both parties and almost all of the candidates suck. Nearly every last one of them are hypocrites, contrary to what's asserted on both ends of the political spectrum in the blogosphere.
Michgan Matt —
The spite was in YOUR msg, not mine. My msg was respectful, even if it simply gave an opinion different than yours. I will find the Reagan reference for you. I don't have it online because it's not online; it's in some files at my office. Still, don't pretend that Ronald Reagan was somehow a gay friendly president….it's a ridiculous position to take. And California state politics (the Briggs Amdt) cannot in any way be compared to the politics that ensue in a national election.
Bruce — notice how I was respectful and polite, but was told to go to therapy and accused of being spiteful. Tells you something about your readership and | [

does and doesn't violate your rules of community conduct.
Peter H — you are a member of a disenfranchised minority in this country because, until recently, many states still criminalized sodomy, because you can't get married, because in 2004 GW Bush used the gay marriage issue to win the election, and because not so long ago, a man named Joe McCarthy led a purge of homosexuals in government. You cannot serve openly in the military. If you walked into a straight bar and kissed your lover you'd get the hell kicked out of you. Whether you like it or not, YOU are part of that history. You might try to deny that you are a member of a disenfranchised group, that everyone accepts you as "normal," but that denial speaks to your psychopathology, not mine.
Attmay says
So an anti-white or anti-heterosexual statement does not count as hate speech, since these are not minorities?
Chet, let me remind you of your original statement — AGAIN.
Now you are claiming that Howard Dean's statement, which demonizes an entire group of people, does not count as hate speech because Republicans "aren't a disenfranchised minority".
Or, in short, you changed the rules when you lost, because it was patently obvious that Howard Dean was referring to a group of people, which would then make his statements hate speech and demonstrate that you were wrong.
The reason you get treated like dirt, Chet, is not because you're gay; as your behavior demonstrates, being gay is merely a convenient excuse you use to avoid dealing with your incompetence and antisocial behavior.
People like Peter and myself, for whom homosexuality is a fact, not an excuse, have a rather different view of life.
HardHobbit says
It is not surprising that a liberal would be of the opinion that conservatives have a far worse record regarding most things including 'hate speech' (a term in want of a definition if there ever was one). While it might be of some interest to recount every 'hateful' public statement (were we to agree re. what is suitably 'hateful') from both sides for the last, say, 50 years in order to keep score, I assume we'd soon realize the futility of such an exercise because both parties (and Parties) are far too guilty.
Your point re. hate speech directed at groups and individuals and the difference in its respective sources is an odd one coming from a modern liberal. Modern liberalism (and its American champion, the Democratic Party) has made pressure group and constituency politics its bread and butter since the 60s, particularly since the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (a piece of legislation that Republicans supported in far greater numbers than Democrats, incidentally — but who's counting?). To combat the Solid South and the Southern Strategy, xenophobic and racist Dixiecrats were subsumed into the Democratic Party (see Senator Byrd, D-West Virginia for an explanation) whereupon East Coast establishment types (from white ethnic immigrant stock like the Kennedys and Cuomos) subsequently took over. A divide-and-conquer strategy was put into place that divided American society into groups according to race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. (all the kinds of discrimination in which we are forbidden to engage) and created and fostered the pressure groups and constituency-rewards political spoils that fuel the modern Democratic Party. And I cannot think of anything more hateful and cynical, spoken or otherwise, than a welfare policy seemingly determined to destroy the family and the work ethic — a policy that was clung to because it was recognized that the urban poor were addicted to welfare and slaves to the politicians that kept such programs in place. Bill Clinton (who I agree is an idiot) signed a reform bill only after vetoing it twice, then realizing that the reform was supported in poll after poll by about 80% of Americans, and this after promising to 'end it as we knew it' while campaigning.
The Republican Party unfortunately also has its constituencies and pressure groups (business and religious leaders in particular). However, I would argue that while the Democrats are particularly interested in minorities, Republicans are interested in an even smaller minority: the individual. By and large, the GOP has done a better job of defending individual liberty than has the Democratic Party, but then I'm a Republican. In fact, this is why I am | [

a Republican and this is why I'm not surprised that a liberal such as yourself is of 'boggled mind' when contemplating a 'gay conservative' or a gay individual who refuses to buy the line that what is good for him extends only so far as the boundary that separates himself from the rest of society. I cannot tell you how many times I've been called a 'self-loathing homosexual' for expressing even the slightest objection to the entire homosexual agenda. Then again, I've been dogpiled at this blog, too.
This red herring is brought up constantly: "Locke (or any other classical liberal) was a liberal, so why would anyone be a conservative?" Or, "The Founding Fathers were liberals, so conservatism is anti-American". Modern liberalism very little to do with Locke, the Founding Fathers, Smith, Franklin, St. Thomas Aquinas, Aristotle, Schopenhauer, or any other philosopher concerned with the importance of individual rights. While I'm not a conservative because I think conservatives fall into their own traps re. individual freedoms, I would have to say that conservatives (perhaps inadvertently) have a better record of upholding the Constitution than do liberals. (See the 10th Amendment and tell me if modern liberalism isn't a constitutional abomination.) The push to federalize every possible government function is one example of how modern liberalism has made our political system less democratic. For example, education policy used to be debated and legislated in Congress. Now, much of that is done by the President and the Dept. of Education, breaking the link between voters and their elected representatives. In the final analysis, it should be remembered that terms like 'liberal' and 'conservative' are relative and when considering a historical dimension, must be qualified. Jefferson would be appalled at the size and scope of our government and the thoroughness with which the American military has positioned itself across the globe, yet a modern liberal would (and often does) mistakenly claim him as one of his own.
Re. your point that conservatives tend to feminize their opponents does have some merit, though I don't think 'weakness' is necessarily feminine. This may be a small-cock insecurity or a mindset that is recalcitrant and cannot break out of what was tried and true in a capitalist vs. communist environment, as you've mentioned. In any case, it's neither useful nor productive.
I for one appreciate the civility of your tone. Thanks.
Hard Hobbit,
Just as classical liberals cannot be compared to modern ones (a valid point), you can't compare today's democracy party to the dixicrats of the 1960s. Strom Thurmond (former dixicrat) became a Republican for a reason.
Neither can you validly argue that "the individual" is a minority. A statistical minority, perhaps. But a "minority" is by definition a GROUP of people who, as a GROUP, have experienced a history of persecution, disenfranchisement, etc. This is why political scientists consider women a minority, even though they constitute a statistical majority. I know that republicans like to deny that memberships in groups affect some peoples' fates, and that only the individual matters, but the evidence never supports that thesis. It's a nice thing to believe in, but beyond that it has no merit.
NDT — I also stated, at the end of that paragraph, that saying "I hate Bush" is not really as dangerous as hate speech because Bush is not a member of a disenfranchized minority. In other words, I qualified my argument that hate speech targets groups, adding that the group targeted is usually a group that has historically been disenfranchized in some way. Republicans do not fall into that category. I know you have to infer this from my statement, but I assume that you are capable of simple inferences.
So, for example, NDT, I might open my door and shout "I hate the people of Texas." An awful and stupid thing to say, to be sure, but does it rise to the level of "hate speech?" No. Because the people of Texas, as a group, have not been the victims of systematic, historically entrenched forms of discrimination, political disenfranchisement, and so on. (This, by the way, is also the Supreme Court's litmus test for figuring out if a person | [

's claim falls under the "suspect class" classification, allowing them "heightened judicial review"). On the other hand, I might open my door and shout, "I sure do hate the niggers." Aside from being patently offensive, this statement further perpetuates an entrenched form of social inequality based on GROUP membership. See the differences? I hope so.
Also recall that I said to Dan that I am not in favor of regulating hate speech. I think people should be perfectly open about their hatred, which is why I admire Ann Coulter, even if I disagree w/ her.
I'll try to find the Reagan reference for you tomorrow when I'm at my office.
p.s. The fact that you say I'm "incompetent" and "antisocial" only betrays the anxiety you have about your own views. It doesn't depict anything true or "real" about me. I'd venture that you wouldn't say such things if you didn't have the safety zone of a modem and a screen to protect you.
HardHobbit, best post I've seen on this site on this topic to date – and that says a lot, with all of the great posters around.
And not to sound like the amen corner here, but you have brilliantly expounded upon Peter's Principle of Politics #3:
Conservatives like you for WHO you are. Liberals like you for WHAT you are.
Again, well said and well done. Kudos!
"If you walked into a straight bar and kissed your lover you'd get the hell kicked out of you."
Uh, Chet, there are two problems with that:
1. I don't go to straight bars with my partner. He doesn't drink. Besides, that's why there are gay bars – to have a community have its own place to congregate. (Would you go to an all-black establishment?)
2. When we do go out in public, it would be difficult for any intolerant moonbats (mostly of the "big tent" DNC out there) to try anything. Hubby served in Operation Desert Storm and yours truly can bench 210 pounds – free weight. We kick tail and take names.
Thank you for playing. We have some nice parting gifts for you backstage. Good-bye.
Something quick for the record.
Someone claimed above, "when I criticized the Iraq war… Bruce called me an al Qaeda sympathizer." Here is what really happened.
First, the person made absurd mis-representations of America as a land oppression and "fear", rule by clerics and suffering a "complete destruction" of civil liberties and due process, and on and on. (And incidentally, mis-attributed the awful Kelo decision to conservatives, when SCOTUS ****liberals**** gave us Kelo. But that's a very small point.)
Alongside a proclamation of his "hating" the President (that's hate speech, right?), he then said, "I do not need to declare myself on any 'side' in the [Iraq] war. It's not a football game."
At that last, Bruce said, "No bro, it is the future of your nation… [With ever-increasing evidence and reason,] I may ban you from this site for being an al-Qaeda sympathizer." The person responded with pathetic name-calling on Bruce, as he often does when challenged. The exchange can be read here: http://gaypatriot.net/2007/02/28/you-must-be-in-an-arab-country-if
One can criticize the Iraq war and one can agree or disagree with Bruce's threat to the person, but I just wanted to stop Bruce being demonized. And Dan: when you (as a blog author) have to contend with critics operating down on that level – or worse – I can well see why you would tire of writing about politics. But please don't. This blog is an important voice.
Thanks loads. You're my favorite poster in these parts, so I doff my hat (ski cap) to you!
There's so much to say and I think much of what we type here is lost due to the lack of inflection inherent in speech. Perhaps the future of blogging is the teleblog — a teleconference call with video/audio uplinks via satellite. In the meantime, | [

perhaps we could wish for a chat utility.
Thanks again for all your great input. I read them all.
Oh – And C, please do come up with some evidence of Reagan running anti-gay ads linking Jimmy Carter and Harvey Milk ads. It sounds like a Gay Left myth.
By contrast, I personally remember the Briggs Initiative story (in which Reagan was pro-gay, and made a difference) as I was living in California at the time.
I tried to google for the Reagan-Carter-Milk story, just a couple of minutes, and nothing leaped out… except for things like this review of The Life and Times of Harvey Milk, which favorably note Reagan's positive role against the Briggs Initiative and make no mention of the negative Reagan-Carter-Milk ad story. One would think that, if the latter story were true, it would be mentioned somewhere.
Chet writes, with a straight face too: "Still, don't pretend that Ronald Reagan was somehow a gay friendly president….it's a ridiculous position to take." Wow, you just make this stuff up on your own?? Or is this trace elements of the dried up and discredited ActUp nonsense ala 1980's?
Having waged war in the trenches against RR in the Michigan GOP primary in 80, I can tell you that he was viewed by social conservative religRighters as being "soft" on the homosexual agenda –as the Moral Majority liked to call the future GayLeftBorg's political action primer. RR lived and worked among gays in Hollywood all his adult life, he didn't view his gay son any differently than his straight son… he loved them both to his death. The ReligRighters looked past that "soft side" of RR because he was willing –unlike JimmineyCricketCarter— to take on the godless atheistic Soviets.
Now, as I've and others have noted… he stood against the Briggs Proposition when conventional wisdom said "Stay low, don't be opposed to this ReliRight effort"… but RR did the courageous thing and made it clear the proposal was idiotcy in search of an exercise.
RR was an anti-gay Prez? Pleeeease… go peddle the ActUp nonsense somewhere else. What next? Bush told Scooter to lie? You guys just keep making this crap up… no shame at all.
Pete H —
–>Yes, I would and have gone to all-black establishments. Sorry to see that you limit yourself as to where you go. I guess you're a victim after all.
–> Good for you. Too bad that doesn't apply to all gay people. It's fine, I suppose, for you to deny that you are a member of a discriminated minority, but that doesn't mean your situation applies to everyone. And you can kick all the "tail" you want, but your bf still can't serve openly in the military — thus proving my point. You can't deny existing hierarchies, Peter. I know it's painful to acknowledge, but you'll be better for it in the end. There's no weakness in admitting you've been socially positioned as inferior to straight people.
By the way, which parting gift do I get? I like gifts.
Michgan Matt and Calarato —
I said I'd try to find the Reagan piece tomorrow. It's not on the internet; it's from a very old magazine article. If I don't find it tomorrow at my office, I'll take the comment back. I'm fair.
Still, let's pretend the link between Reagan and anti-gay campaigns in the south against Carter DIDN'T exist.
Reagan did not utter the word AIDS in public until more than 30,000 people worldwide had died from the disease. I suppose you think that had NOTHING at all to do with homosexuality,or the fact that, in the beginning, people called AIDS "Gay Related Immune Deficiency." Furthermore, Reagan's own Press Secretary (I believe), Pat Buchanan, said at the REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION: "the gays declared a war on nature, and nature has fought back [with AIDS]."
Now, this is not to say that | [

democrats have not been equally opportunistic and hypocritical in their stance toward homosexuality, gay rights, etc. But if you guys are going to argue that there's the GOP doesn't use this issue to rally its kooky religious base, your arguments will fall on deaf ears. The only difference between republicans and dems on this issue is that Republicans have appeased the right-wing of their party with the gay issue, whereas democrats have tried to appease the middle of their party. Republicans have been far more successful.
Now Matt, you may be right that PRIVATELY, Ronald Reagan was not homophobic, that he had a gay son, friends, was okay with it, etc. But I don't particularly care about the private lives of politicians. I care about their policies, and the way those policies shape existing social relations. As a politician, Reagan was no friend of gays. He may have been in CA (Briggs Initiative), but just like all Republicans, when it comes to national office, he new he had to please the south and the Baptists.
If you don't believe me that this is true, let's take bets on how quickly Rudy turns around on this issue if/when he wins the Primaries. He's already begun an about-face on the abortion issue; gay rights will not be that far behind.
And BTW, if Rudy doesn't do the above, I'll vote for him against Hilary any day of the week.
Chet (#23),
As I pressed the 'Say It!' button, I wondered whether I should have mentioned Strom Thurmond and you did. You're right, some Dixiecrats fled to the GOP, but I would argue that the Democratic Party leapfrogged the Republicans over to the left. The GOP used to be the more liberal of the two parties. Beginning in the 60s, leftist radicals took over the vocal minority of the Democratic Party. True to form, reactionaries reacted by taking over the vocal minority of the Republican Party about a decade later. Moderates in both parties (Reagan Democrats, 40% of union members being Republicans, East Coast establishment Republicans, Blue Dogs, etc.) were left wondering what the hell happened. Some are still wondering and the vast middle isn't too happy with the idealogues on either side. Enter Giuliani.
I think most would agree that when comparing a single person with a group of one hundred persons (whatever the criterion), the single person is in the minority. This is how I define the term. Using this definition, all other means of dividing the human population are artificial and only serve to divide us based on what differentiates us rather than the individual, natural rights that unite us. While the United States has not always done so, our goal should be to treat all individuals equally where individual rights and behaviors are concerned. Equality under the law is the only equality a nation and its institutions can attempt to guarantee. Equality of outcome can never be guaranteed because it is against human nature.
There was a time when it was not a dirty word to be called a liberal in America. Liberals, after all, were the first to champion individual liberty (John Locke) and relatively free markets (Adam Smith).
I read the same thing, word for word, in a letter to the editor of my local paper. Hmmm.
Perhaps from those of the 60s onward. I'd have to say grabbing power from the CIC, allowing the Communist invasion of S. Vietnam, allowing the slaughter of millions in Vietnam and Cambodia etc. and the passionate desire libs have to let it happen in Iraq. I could go on with a litany of examples, but you know what they are.
I know this is only my view, but I believe conservatives are a paranoid group who MUST have an enemy in their discourse. Their enemy used to be communism and communists.
THEIR enemy???
Who to fear? Liberals became, in the conservative imagination/fantasy, the new communists
Became??? The Neo-Socialists and environmentalists have always BEEN the new communists.
and that they wish to have no real conversation with this person, because they would lose a real debate.
You'll let us know, won't you, when there is a real debate here?
This is the very man who was tauted as a hero on this very blog. To be honest, it boggles my mind.
You ought to | [

read DeRoy Murdock's article Anti-Gay Gipper.
There's a qualitative difference in saying "I hate Republicans," and "I hate niggers," or "I hate faggots."
WTF? Who said that?
The fact remains that you're a "victim" and based on all of your posts, you love it. You wouldn't give it up for the world. Nor would you dare try to improve yourself and rise above it. It's "comfortable" being a down-trodden victim. There's far more perks and pity that you wouldn't have if you actually bothered to change it, which only you can. Talk about a "safety zone". I'll feel sorry for your victimhood if you want. Oh wait, no I won't.
BTW, you can bet your sweet a$$ I would tell you to your face. I've told others the same thing before and I'll do it again. The only reason I can't is because you're there and I'm here.
Oh and speaking of using fear, who was it that gave us such gems as:
"Bush wants to steal your money from your 401(K)!"
"Bush wants to destroy Social Security!"
"Bush only goes to war for oil!"
"Bush wants to make the elderly starve to death!"
"Bush wans to go into the schools and personally take little Billy's lunch from him!"
"Support for Bush = support for burning black churches!"
"If you support Bush, you support dragging black men to their deaths!"
"Bush creates and controls (pick one) hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes, tsunamis, wildfires etc.!"
"Bush blew up the levees just so he could kill all the blacks!" Nevermind that more whites died.
"Bush created hurricane Katrina just so he could kill all the blacks!" Then why did it hit Mississippi?
"Bush wants to destroy Medicare!" I think that one's been thoroughly debunked.
"Bush only gives tax cuts to the rich!" Maybe because they're the ones who pay taxes?
"Vote for Bush and he'll reinstate the draft!" Yeah. Still waiting on that.
"The earth will become a boiling caulderon thanks to global warming!
etc.etc.etc.???
Chet writes: "Reagan did not utter the word AIDS in public until more than 30,000 people worldwide had died from the disease."
I wrote earlier "Wow, you just make this stuff up on your own?? Or is this trace elements of the dried up and discredited ActUp nonsense ala 1980's?"
I see the answer for Chet is to trot out the ol' ActUp glory days nonsense and try to peddle it to another generation. I figured he would and Chet doesn't disappoint in proving the GayLeftBorg keeps on spinning in outer space.
Chet, it reeks. Nice try at discrediting RR but you lost on that one, too.
Hard Hobbit — I agree with almost everything in your post. Except I think minorities ARE real. There is inequality, whether we like it or not, and only by recognizing it and trying to do something about it can we try to achieve the noble goals you cite. By ignoring the way some groups of people, based on their membership in that group, get unfairly positioned as inferior, we fail to live up to those goals. Simply saying "everyone's an individual" is to deny those realities. Also, I don't think human beings have a singular, monolithic "nature" (either benevolent or malevolent) that would stop us from trying to equalize some of those inequalities. Just my view.
Chetster, your argument is so full of holes I will need a cement mixer to fill them.
For starters, unlike most liberals, I don't wallow in self-pity or group sympathy. Conservatives are mostly individualists – what is good for us may or may not be for the "greater good," which is the argument Stalinists use (like Shrillary).
Glad to see you go to all-black establishments. Would YOU kiss your boyfriend there? Methinks not. So I do not accept the premise of your argument. | [

And if we're limited AS A COMMUNITY to going to gay bars, then we are doing our own self-segregation according to your premise. Again, that is proven false.
So excuse me if I do not weep for your excuse that it's "[t]oo bad that doesn't apply to all gay people." There is a difference between being the victim of a so-called "hate crime" and those who go out looking for trouble. And I suspect you are the latter.
Your parting gift will be a weekend in therapy with Ann Coulter. Enjoy.
I said I'd try to find the Reagan piece tomorrow… If I don't find it tomorrow at my office, I'll take the comment back. I'm fair.
Sorry to say, that would be first for you on this blog.
Reagan did not utter the word AIDS in public until more than 30,000 people worldwide had died from the disease…
Blah, blah, blah. Why care? Reagan had other things on his mind. I don't offer Reagan as a pro-gay President. I have never claimed Reagan was the Great Liberator of gay people.
And there can be no question that at the time, SOME of Reagan's SUPPORTERS were homophobic, anti-gay bigots. As also were some of Carter's, Mondale's, and Al Gore's.
As has been noted in other discussions on this blog, certain Republicans and certain Democrats remain homophobic to this day.
I am saying that Reagan was pro-gay, with positive effect, in the Briggs Initiative case. And, if Reagan wasn't the Great Liberator of gay people as such, perhaps he had on his mind, oh, I don't know, maybe the fall of Communism and the restoration of human freedom in general? From both of which, incidentally, gay people greatly benefit.
But if you guys are going to argue that there's the GOP doesn't use this issue to rally its kooky religious base…
What I argue there, Chettie, is that the Democrats use the gay issue to rally what they mistakenly think is the GOP's "kooky religious base".
The national GOP tried to play the anti-gay card in a big way, in 1992. Remember Pat Buchanan and the "culture war" speech? Fell flat on its ass. Led to no GOP election victory whatever. And received no "echo", similar theme or validation at any future GOP convention.
Now fast forward to the twenty-first century. What have we got?
1) Johns Kerry and Edwards flaunting Mary Cheney's sexuality in a kooky, clumsy effort to get the GOP base to turn on her (i.e., on Bush-Cheney).
2) Nancy Pelosi openly spreading the gay=pedophile meme – throwing gay people under the bus – in her effort to exploit the Mark Foley non-scandal. (I say "non-scandal" because, creepy as he was, (a) he resigned and (b) we do not know that he actually had sex with anyone.)
That's your Democratic Party.
If you don't believe me that this is true, let's take bets on how quickly Rudy turns around on this issue if/when he wins the Primaries.
As a rule, I don't take bets with anonymous characters on the Web. Plus, from past discussions, I know you don't come through on your rhetorical promises.
Having said that: you're wrong here. Rudy (whom I don't even like that much, BTW) will never turn on gays in the slightest. Did you read the following GP entry? http://gaypatriot.net/2007/03/04/top-gop-prez-candidates-denounce-coulter

Vince P says
Lets not forget the Mark Foley story.
Democrats knew the gist of this story for a year before it hit the public.
It hits public.. obstenstively to protect Pages from sexual assualt (seems odd one would wait a year to do this).
The allegation is that the Republicans should have used police state power on Foley only because

No Democrat has any claim to a moral high ground after those tactics were used soley for electioneering.
NDT et al. —
Here's the Reagan reference:
Randy Shilts, "In Cold Blood: Why the Reagan Administration Ignored Its Own Medical Advisors on AIDS," Mother Jones News, November 1987, page 26. Pertinent paragraph: "…for the first time, gays had been a serious campaign issue — but for the other side. 'The gays in San Francisco elected a mayor,' announced the solemn voice in Reagan's television ads aimed at Southern voters. The visuals shifted from photos of a deviate-looking gay rights marcher to a still of President Carter. 'Now they're going to elect a president." Note that it does not say the ad was sponsored by anyone else — it was a Reagan campaign ad. Of course this was before the day when one had to say, "I approve this message."
Still, the Shilts article, should you wish to find it and read it, is full of all sorts of other condemnatory evidence regarding the Reagan administration and gays.
And of course Randy Shilts does NOT have an agenda-driven motive for writing such a screed, now does he?
Plus, his article was in Mother Jones. I guess that means that it's credible, right? Well, in claiming moral objectivity, that means that any articles which appear in National Review, NewsMax and the Limbaugh Letter are just as credible should we care to source them.
Please. Randy Shilts' outlook on Reagan is about as objective as a "History of the Jewish People" commissioned by Ahmadinejad.
Ah. Randy Shilts and Mother Jones. What wonderful sources.
As I said: It sounded (and still sounds) like a Gay Left myth to me. I mean, could there be any sources gay-and-more-Left than them? Other than N(S)GLTF press releases, I mean?
But, I'll give you points for trying to answer.
sorry, typo, should read "gayER-and-more-Left"
No one denies the proven effects of membership in certain groups in society. I would never deny that the differential in academic achievement between blacks and whites is part of the legacy of slavery, for example. But slavery was caused by the kind of thinking you apparently espouse: judgment of potential based upon an artificial (non-individual) membership in a group of a certain criterion. Merely because of common skin color and physical features (and an inability to resist), people were enslaved. Now, in order to attempt to make up for that tragedy, we are doing the same by imposing double standards, engaging in race-norming, discriminating against the better qualified, etc. — this is all of the same immoral mindset of judging a person based upon membership in this or that racial group and all while preaching that to do so is wrong.
I understand your empathy, but the only way to combat the effects of, as you might say, minority disadvantage is to cease judging people as representatives and to judge them only as individuals. To judge others as individuals isn't to deny, for example, racism. (I keep choosing racism because it's obvious.) Discriminating against and judging negatively those of specific race is racism, but so is making up for it by doing the opposite against other races. I advocate ending racism but from what you've implied, you are advocating engaging in it in an attempt to end it. Do I understand your position correctly?
Once again, your last two posts dismiss individualism as a shallow denial of the supposed deeper realities faced by those members of specific groups, all named minorities. I do not deny the existence racism, sexism, homophobia, or any of the other malevolent bigotries that drive us apart. But a bigot is an individual and must be judged accordingly and not as a representative, the same with his/her target. To advocate that the government 'equalize' ill effects of such thinking sets up a system whereupon social engineers decide which group is 'underrepresented' in this or that endeavor and then discriminate against some in order to promote the few, all in the name of what they think is 'fairness'.
Somehow I knew that you would attack both the | [

messenger and the source, but not the facts. Maybe you guys are right: maybe Shilts (such an awful person, I know, all that he did for the AIDS community…..just an awful, awful person, nowhere NEARLY as wonderful as Reagan) is just partisan and MADE UP the quotations from the TV ads.
The article also states that "by the time Reagan publicly used the word AIDS, 27,000 people were dead from the disease [earlier I said 30K, my bad]." Is Shilts just making that up? Is mother Jones just randomly picking figures?
If so, then act like REAL debaters and prove him/mother jones wrong rather than just dismissing the messenger and source.
Or, just show me some sort of record where both Randy Shilts and Mother Jones news have said things that are INACCURATE.
I wager neither of you has ever even read a single copy of the magazine. I, on the other hand, do read National Review and the Journal of Foreign Policy, both right-leaning, and both of which I often disagree with but find very interesting and informative. I'd never say to someone, "well that comes from National Review…..that's just rightist nonsense!"
I was at least honest about the fact that the article does not say that the article was or was not sponsored by Reagan's campaign. It seems to attribute the quotes to his campaign and does not say that it was released/aired/paid for by anyone else. I was also honest about the fact that this ad occurred before the rules requiring candidates to approve messages paid for/endorsed by them. So you guys could at least go with those points and try to prove your position.
But instead all you can say is "oh well it's Randy Shilts so it's worthless…..just another gay leftist," or "oh it's Mother Jones News, of COURSE they'd say that."
When you debate someone, disprove the FACTS — frankly (I know this will seem odd coming from me), you guys seem better than that. Debates and conversations about politics require that interlocutors ASSUME the honesty and well-intentions of each other. I do that for you guys, and I do it for most conservative commentators (Ann Coulter et al. aside). You could at least pay people like me (and Randy Shilts) the same sort of courtesy.
And also, a denialist like Chet quoting Randy Shilts is hilarious; if you've ever read And The Band Played On, Shilts is far more harsh on gay leftists, gay activists, and others who refused taking measures to stop the spread of AIDS, who blocked attempts for government intervention, and who protested when their public sex and bathhouse culture, which was responsible for the vast majority of the rapid spread, was shut down.
And now, of course, these same gay leftists are engaging in revisionist history, using puppets like Chet who don't know any better, to insist that it wasn't THEIR fault, that it was all Reagan's fault, that he forced gays to have unsafe sex and use drugs and that he was going to put all gays in concentration camps.
Somehow I knew that you would attack both the messenger and the source, but not the facts.
On the contrary: I challenge exactly and only the facts.
This is what I said:
I tried to google for the Reagan-Carter-Milk story, just a couple of minutes, and nothing leaped out… except for things like this review of The Life and Times of Harvey Milk [linked in original for your viewing], which favorably note Reagan's positive role against the Briggs Initiative and make no mention of the negative Reagan-Carter-Milk ad story. One would think that, if the latter story were true, it would be mentioned somewhere.
By "somewhere", I quite obviously meant "somewhere online – ideally a neutral source, but at any rate, some source that could at least be LOOKED AT by people, such as myself." And you haven't provided any such reference or substantiation!
But hey, at least you took the effort to flip through some old Gay Left publications and type a carefully selected quote.
By the way: I am well familiar with Shilts' work, having read considerable chunks of it quite closely. I am aware, as a critical and close | [

reader, of when Shilts tends to give fair, coherent and complete accounts vs. when he gives slanted and incomplete accounts, so as to support his agenda. (He does a fair amount of both.)
What an absurd claim / demand that is. YOU YOURSELF HAVE NOT PROVIDED THE SOURCE IN ANY FORM THAT IS EVEN CHECKABLE BY OTHERS independently.
Once you do that: then we can talk about facts. Then we can talk about whether Shilts' claims are verfiable from any other source; whether he would have omitted certain facts from his account in order to slant it – perhaps the fact it was NOT a Reagan-sponsored ad, as a theoretical example – and so forth.
To underline Dallas's point, AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
An interesting side note: Cuba has dealt with its AIDS problem via testing and quarantine, eradicating it from the general population. Thus, Cubans who aren't infected (including gays) can copulate without fear of HIV.
Some questions (and they are just questions — nothing implied here):
The United States used to deal with communicable fatal diseases like this. Have civil rights become more important than the safety of the population, or does the Acquired nature of AIDS disavow any publicly imposed action such as universal testing? If requiring testing is not O.K., why do we force the closure of sex clubs?
Universal testing and quarantine would ostensibly identify those with HIV, prevent others from acquiring it, and direct medical help to those who need it. Would such testing be used as a means of discrimination, even though it would likely help the health of the overall population? Does this overall health outweigh any de facto effects of identification of the infected?
The presence of sexually transmitted diseases has undoubtedly put curbs on many who engage in unsafe behavior. Is behavior only moral if internally generated rather than externally enforced?
NDT Wrote:
And now, of course, these same gay leftists are engaging in revisionist history, using puppets like Chet who don't know any better, to insist that it wasn't THEIR fault, that it was all Reagan's fault, that he forced gays to have unsafe sex and use drugs and that he was going to put all gays in concentration camps. "
–>I wasn't posting a critique of the gay community's response (lack thereof) of the AIDS crisis. That history is well documented by people like Larry Kramer, a vocal critic of the Gay Men's Health Crisis organization (and also founder of Act-Up). I don't disagree with any of what you said above (except the part about me being a denialist), but the subject of our conversation was why gay people would hero-worship Ronald Reagan. So my main question is, if you readily accept Shilt's critique of the gay community's response to HIV/AIDS, then why don't you accept his equally well documented critique of Reagan?
Calarato — if you want me to photocopy the article for you and mail it to you, I will. I can't sit beside you at night and read it to you while you fall off into dreamland, of course. You guys asked for a source, I provided it (including the page number so that you don't have to read the entire article if you don't want to). Your IMMEDIATE response was not to say, "well we can't find that article ourselves to check the facts," but rather to simply say, "oh, it's that LEFTIST Shilts [whom NDT is claiming is CRITICAL of left-gay organizations, and he's right], and OH that's Mother Jones, so who cares." Also, if you have access to any university library, you can request the article from the reserve services.
That's a euphemistic statement of Cuba's policy, HardHobbit.
Cuba has put tens of thousands of gays in prison: many with HIV, and many not. They also expel them from the country, or worse.
Hard Hobbit —
My responses follow –>:
–> I think I understand your point, but let's remember that in the early 1980s, no one had heard of nor fathomed this disease. You can't exactly blame those who "acquired" AIDS then for, for example, making d | [

umb choices. Today, given what we know, you can: for example, I think people who practice barebacking are utterly stupid and insulting and I don't feel particularly sorry for them when they acquire HIV (except for the impulse to feel sorry for anyone suffering from a disease).
–>I don't want to live in Cuba because I value living in an open society which exercises tolerance. I also did not agree with Reagan's attempt to turn away legal immigrants if they were HiV+. We can never live in an entirely safe/secure society. The best we can do is teach safe sex, intelligent decision making, and so on.
–> I'm not in favor for either remedy for precisely the reasons I stated above re. Cuba. There's this book I like by Ulrich Beck called "Risk Societies." Beck's point in the book is that living in modern societies requires risk, but the reward of risk is greater freedom and liberty for the individual. So I think in cases like this one, we have to be very careful about trading security for liberty. we have to be willing to face risk. I think rather than requiring testing, branding people (not that you suggested that), closing sex clubs, etc., we should give people as much education about the issue as possible (not the "abstinence only" nonsense either) so that they can exercise intelligent decision making. (At the same time, I agree with people like Kramer and Shilts that, in the very beginning, it would have been a wise thing to close bathhouses in places like SF, but only until we got a reasonable sense of what was going on.) Beyond that, you can't protect people too much, otherwise we end up living in a rule-bound society that infringes on our openness and liberty. None of us really wants that, whether the issue is AIDS or….dare I say it….terrorism.
–>On a side note, Hobbit, I appreciate that you discuss things with me civilly. Thanks!
This was to be a continuation of my #49. Filter giving me terrible problems today.
"I wager neither of you has ever even read a single copy of [Mother Jones]." – Bad wager… once again showing your tendency to insulting and foolish stereotypes.
"I'd never say to someone, 'well that comes from National Review…..that's just rightist nonsense!'"
Oh please… YOU HAVE.
"I was at least honest about the fact that the article does not say that the article was or was not sponsored by Reagan's campaign…"
Yes. That is good.
"Debates and conversations about politics require that interlocutors ASSUME the honesty and well-intentions of each other. I do that for you guys…"
Oh my!!! 🙂 I don't know if I've engaged a "debater" more consistently suspicious, insulting, and willing to accuse others of bad faith, than you! How is this, for only one example: http://gaypatriot.net/2007/02/17/congressional-cowards-give-up-on-the-troops#comment-395883
Have you no shame?
(Note: In the particular example, Matt and I both did provide MULTIPLE Web references YOU COULD VIEW YOURSELF – from neutral sources, even!)
#52 – Translation:
Chester still got nothing. (Except his wounded ego.)
Your IMMEDIATE response was not to say, "well we can't find that article ourselves to check the facts," but rather to simply say, "oh, it's that LEFTIST Shilts [sic; I actually said Gay – Shilts, and Left – Mother Jones]…
I can't say everything at once, Chet. My comments are too long as it is.
As it happens, both apply – and in due course, I said both. LOL 🙂
I don't disagree with any of what you said above (except the part about me being a denialist), but the subject of our conversation was why gay people would hero-worship Ronald Reagan. So my main question is, if you readily accept Shilt's critique of the gay community's response to HIV/AIDS, then why don't you accept his equally well documented critique of Reagan?
Because, as Calarato | [

neatly put it above, we have more important things to think about than the gay community's self-inflicted wounds that it tries to blame on other people.
The ultimate proof of the irrelevancy of Shilts's vendetta against Reagan is obvious when one looks at the fact that HIV infection rates in the gay community would still do the Third World proud. Presidents come and presidents go, but the gay community refuses to change its behavior — especially its blaming everyone else for its inability to keep its pecker in its pants and use condoms when it doesn't — and continues to reap the same results.
Chet, thanks for circling back around and providing the reference to prove RR was anti-gay.
Problem is, like Calarato and others here, I think "the reach" is really a stretch. By reach I mean your implication that RR's campaign (or "campaign surrogates" to give you the benefit of the doubt) would have spied brilliantly that they could portray Carter as being pro-gay and thought that was the proverbial nail in the coffin for social conservatives, southern voters, etc. Sorry, but there were hundreds of other reasons far more persuasive to nail the coffin shut on JimmineyCricket's presidency. And, remember, RR got 91% of the Electoral College, carried the South except for Carter's homestate of GA and the hillside dwellers in W VA.
But let's try some logic… although I doubt you'll be convinced if you're willing to earlier trot out the ol' ActUp crap/spin that's been discredited roundly by unbiased commentators in a plethora of media.
Let's say some mean-spirited anti-gay bigot in the RR campaign had the opportunity to earmark $$$ for producing the ad –remember you said it was a TV ad. Even shaky, low budget, 3rd tier ads ran about $1.2m/minute in 1980… if one could have gotten the RR people to even agree to produce an ad not reflective of the high production values evident in other RR ads. RR's ads in 1980 ran a whopping $3.3m/minute.
The funds would have had to been raised independent of RR's official campaign, because despite what you said… we did have campaign finance laws in place at the federal level… reporting requirements for candidates, for natl parties, for state parties, etc. The laws went into effect under Ford as a backlash against Watergate, Chet. Nice try at revisionist history, but it doesn't get you there. In FEC filings, there is no evidence of late TV ad batches being made by either the RR Campaign or RNC-DC or RNC-NYC… the only two other sources with the cash to do the ads. It's possible a state GOP group did them; I didn't check there… but I gotta tell ya, Chet, it would have been redlined when RR's folks were asked to approve because they (the RR people) were anal-retentive when it came to TV or radio ads. Control over content, images, message etc. You just don't go off message in a controlled, precise campaign like RR's people ran in 76 primary, 80 primary and general and the 84 general.
In 1980, the real –not figurehead– lead finance guy for RR was Malcolm Walbridge and the expenditures were controlled out of RR Campaign hdqtrs in LA under John Sears' imperial control. The campaign worked extensively throughout 1979 to pull together 5 ads… http://www.4president.us/tv/tv1980.htm
Five ads, Chet. Not a single anti-Carter as a sleazy tool of gays ad. Those were the 5 campaign ads, Chet (absent the 3 longer TV "addresses" he was personally fond of). Could an independent, unaligned sympathetic supporter paid for a vicious anti-gay ad and gotten airtime in fall 1980?
Well, again, it's a stretch. In 1980, the two major campaigns spent so much money in ads that toward the end Sept, conventional ad buyers were complaining that there was | [

no air time left for normal routine ads to air until after Nov… here in Michigan, the RR ads ran non-stop… sometimes 2/hour… an obscene hallmark of saturation in 1980.
So we have the alleged "RR campaign" ad proving RR was anti-gay from your source and the ol ActUp crap/spin about RR letting millions die of AIDS before he acted.
Sorry, Chet, but with all due respect, I join Calarato and others here who find it a stretch.
Firstly, thanks to you for being civil and thoughtful. I'm responding to the tone you established with others and I admire you for it.
Secondly, did you read my #47? (I don't mean to nag, but am expressing interest in your opinion and response. You're popular in these parts.)
Thirdly, I'd just like to reiterate that my questions re. AIDS are some off the top of my head. I pretty much agree with you on all your responses, especially the necessary relationship between liberty and risk.
One more question re. AIDS: You write, "I think I understand your point, but let's remember that in the early 1980s, no one had heard of nor fathomed this…" Surely this includes Reagan, does it not? I remember having a long, difficult conversation with a guy who insisted that the lives of many Jews were lost because Roosevelt didn't recognize their plight at the hands of the Nazis. This may not be a perfect analogy, but I've always thought this was unfair to Roosevelt — as if the U.S. should have dropped everything and run to help those based on information that was far from definitive. Likewise, I've never bought the line that Reagan is to blame for the deaths of many gay men and drug users in the early 80s because he didn't mention AIDS in his speeches and didn't immediately direct our national attention and resources toward the problem. Was there more the administration could have done? Perhaps, but I'm not sure how productive it is to saddle Reagan with a legacy of malevolent inattention or worse. Reagan didn't hate gay men at all. Perhaps this isn't your position — I'm responding to an amalgamation of several posts. I'm sorry if I'm tranferring.
#60 – HardHobbit, well said.
But I am curious: Is Chester going "cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo" at people who provide stronger cites than he, really part of that "civil tone with others" you keep wanting to praise him on? Ummm…. LOL
#59 – Matt, well said.
#58 – NDT, well said. My (longer) version:
1) We've established that Reagan wasn't anti-gay.
2) We've established that SOME of his supporters were – like some Democrats. The "TV ad" question left open.
3) We have NOT established that the Reagan Administration was altogether too slow in responding to AIDS, to the detriment of humankind.
If you look at both the contemporaneous CDC reports / actions, and the AIDS funding provided by the Reagan Administration (figures in Shilts' book show it growing rapidly), they weren't all that bad… they might even be kind of impressive.
4) We've established that Reagan did take a few years to personally, Presidentially mention AIDS.
5) We've established that I couldn't care less about (4). As a principled individualist, I don't expect / need government to validate this or that group (that I may belong to, or not) by having the President mention it.
6) We've established – via Shilts' book, no less – that gays themselves were among the slowest to respond to AIDS (or to change behavior), and that to any reasonable person, that had far more to do with the horrific spread and damage of AIDS than the Reagan Administration.
7) We've established that Reagan had a giant agenda of human freedom… which he mostly accomplished.
Conclusion: I don't "hero-worship" Reagan. I do greatly admire the vision and philosophical clarity, whereby he brought point (7) about. I, as a homo, have | [

benefitted enormously from his vision and legacy of protecting America and promoting Freedom.
mean Gene says
You wrote: I have long been critical of Ms. Coulter, seeing her as more interestec in provoking controversy than in promoting conservative ideas.
When Ann wrote about the 9-11 widows as "innoculated" spokespersons she brought about the end of innoculated spokespersons from the Left.
At first I thought she was way out of line, but after seeing this result, I think it was worth the woe of the time.
What will be the eventual consequence of Ann's use of the "F-word" to describe the preening, weak-on-national-defense Edwards?
Unknown as of this time. Let's give it a chance.
Well, you all certainly do keep my on my toes, I'll give you that. I'll try to respond to everything. Forgive me if I leave anything out.
Calarato — you state (#55) that I have refused to read the National Review. I read it frequently. I usually don't agree with a lot of what's said, but I don't like only hearing the sound of my own voice. So your statement is, I believe, an unfair characterization. In my memory, the only thing I've refused to read that was recommended to me here was a sort of Ann Coulterish political trash tract, which I usually do refuse to read (I don't have that much time in a day). If you ever have any serious (i.e., National Reviewish) reading to pass my way, I'll read it (even if it requires me going to a library to look it up, which is what reading the MJ/Shilts piece I cited would require of you).
Hard Hobbit — I can't find the #47 comment you're talking about. Can you clarify? I'd be happy to respond.
Regarding your comments on Reagan. It's true that no one knew in 1980 what was going on, including Reagan. If Reagan had only been silent in 1980, 1981, 1982, even 1983, and 1984, sure, I'd say, give the guy a break, no one knew what to make of this. But he didn't issue a single public statement even using the word "AIDS" until 1987!!! 1987! To me, that's an awfully long silence. Also, when he did finally speak about aids in 87, he mentioned single mothers, third world people, and IV drug users, but not gays (who, at the time, were the primary victims of the disease). This, to me, betrays at the very least a certain "discomfort" on the part of Reagan when it came to talking publicly about gay people. Coupled with this, Shilts argues (in the article I cited) that key players in Reagan's admin (not Reagan himself, but still) CUT funding to the CDC and the NIH during the key "ramp up" years of the disease (the early 1980s, through 1987 when he finally increased funding). Now, it might be that Reagan as a personal man was not homophobic. I don't know because I didn'tknow him. But his policies, in my view, left a lot to be desired. He seemed to have no qualms, for example, surrounding himself with people like Pat Buchanan (Press Secy who at the RNC convention said "the gays waged a war on nature and nature has fought back"). He openly advocated a policy that would deny otherwise legal immigrants entry to the US if they tested positive for HIV (he did this, I believe, in 1988). And he was the first Republican to really forge strong ties with the Moral Majority. So maybe he wasn't as "anti-gay" as Buchanan, Jesse Helms, or Jerry Falwell, but I don't think he was exactly "pro-gay" in any discernible way either.
Michgan Matt — Well, you know a hell of a lot more about campaign rules than I do. Point granted. I still think, though, that if this ad were something Reagan strongly objected to, something would have been said and, as far as I can tell, nothing was. You're also right that Jimmy | [

didn't have a heck of a lot going for him during that election (he also wasn't exactly a gay friendly democrat himself, making the ad campaign I mentioned extremely ironic!). But in my mind, it was at the time (and probably even now) impossible for a Republican to really win the south without some sort of msg demonizing either (a) gays or (b) pro-choicers. This has been a key Republican tactic since Reagan. I just don't see someone like Reagan, with the ties he had with the new "moral majority," stepping up during the 80 campaign and saying "hey, that ad is way off base….I have nothing against the gays." And to be perfectly honest, I was not trying to "revise history"; I think you're probably right that this ad was issued by a pro-Reagan independent (religious) group; but given the totality of Reagan's policies, given the strong presence of anti-gay forces that surrounded his presidency, I have a hard time believing that he was terribly disappointed or disturbed by the ad's msg.
NDT —
You stated:
–> Some African countries have a more than 50% infection rate. How does this "do them proud"? The fasted growing population of HIV positive people are black women. Is this because they're not "keeping their peckers in their pants?" In 1980 no body knew to "keep their peckers in their pants" as you so eloquently put it. If you were 20 years old living in NYC in the 1980s, you'd probably be dead from the disease now like so many others. And the gay community has "changed its behavior." A big reason for the disease's slow decline among gay men is because of the gay community's own education efforts, their efforts to create more affordable drugs, and so on. It would be nice if, while not sacrificing your own political principles, you could show at least a modicum of respect and decorum for not only the people who died from this disease early on, when so little was known about it, but also the people in the gay community who (even though they might differ from you politically) tried to do something. I suspect that might be too much to ask of you.
Last for the night. Sorry but I am still shaking my head over this…
Randy Shilts… Gay activist-journalist from the 70s, who died in 1994 of specific illness… Good guy on his own terms, but known to be very agenda-driven… Known to have tremendous bitterness toward conservatives, particularly toward Reagan over his (Randy's) specific illness… Telling a story in 1987, to his comfortable fellow Reagan-haters at Mother Jones… a story of alleged Reagan behavior 7 years earlier, that would have been public (TV ads running throughout the South)… yet nobody else seems to remember it or possess any evidence…
That has got to be the *definition* of a questionable source on something. I'm sorry, I can't believe it was offered straight up.
Now let me acknowledge, the story could still be true. Or partially so. And if it is: then it is. (Though it still wouldn't reflect on Reagan, if the ad was done independently of Reagan or his top managers.)
But it's up to the person spreading the story, to furnish a second source, if the first is that questionable – and seemingly "alone".
Mother Jones is perfectly capable of printing things that aren't true, for whatever the reason. Even first-tier publications – like the New York Times, the Washington Post, or the Associated Press – do it all the time.
As Dildo said to Frito, in Harvard Lampoon's _Bored of the Rings_, p.31:
"Don't believe everything you hear from the heralds", said Dildo gravely.
Note that it does not say the ad was sponsored by anyone else — it was a Reagan campaign ad….I was also honest about the fact that this ad occurred before the rules requiring candidates to approve messages paid for/endorsed by them. So you guys could at least go with those points and try to prove your position.
Fast forward to the 2000 campaign: The liberals maintained (and still do) that Bush supposedly smeared McCain. They don't mention that it was | [

not Bush, but campaign workers.
Fast forward to the 2004 campaign: Using that logic and the Mother Jones logic of the "Reagan ad", we can conclude that it was actually Kerry & Edwards who were shooting at and vandalizing Bush/Cheney headquarters here in Orlando and elsewhere. If those responsible had not been caught, we could conclude that Kerry was the one who slashed the tires on vans rented by Republicans to transport voters thereby "disenfranchising" Republican voters.
such an awful person, I know, all that he did for the AIDS community…..
Frankly, I don't care what a person does. If he's a liar, he's still a worthless POS, to me. If you have great sex with a guy but he's a pathological liar, do you keep him?
Is Shilts just making that up? Is mother Jones just randomly picking figures?
And the numbers are based on what? Where do those numbers come from? Was that in America or worldwide? Who did they get them from? Mother Jones usually has "footnotes" for their allegations. Aren't there any references in that article?
AIDS was identified in 1982. Budget funding started in 1984, according to Peter Robinson. Does Mother Jones say when Reagan first mentioned it?
"well that comes from National Review…..that's just rightist nonsense!"
I've glanced through a few issues of Mother Jones. Any retard with half a brain can conclude that it's total fabrication, spin and liberal wishful thinking. It's nauseating that anybody could find it at all credible. The Masonic conspiracy theories, Tri-lateral Commission, Build-a-Burgers (or whatever the hell they are) are more credible than that drivel.
What's next? Alex Jones quotes? BTW, when Art Bell says you're full of it, well that's pretty much it.
I think Reagan first mentioned it in '87. Could be wrong.
Again, I see no rational (as opposed to emotional – or emotionally needy) reason to care when he did or didn't.

Chet, take everything you've written, take everything that's been written to rebutt it in a reasonable, rational, respectful fashion and the run of it is hidden in your response to me:
"But in my mind…"
That's the problem you have, Chet. No matter how compelling, no matter how well documented, no matter how sane the rebuttal… it still boils down to your personal opinion based on what you think you know.
You're wrong about RR being anti-gay. You're really silly to keep trotting out all the discredited ActUp blather of the 1980's and you need to learn to accept that others know a hell of lot more than you can ever appreciate because of your narrow, partisan, gay-locked mindset.
The beauty of the public square isn't that all opinions are equal nor should they be treated with equal credibility… the beauty is that we're allowed to offer them even if, like your's here, they ultimately boil down to misinformation, bad analysis, wishful thinking and the wrong conclusions… you said it best: "But in my mind".
The latest date that it is possible for Reagan to have mentioned AIDS in a press conference is sometime in September 1985. The press conference was published verbatim in the New York Times. I had a printout of a microfilm from my public library but not anymore. I can go get another one if you would like, but you won't believe me anyway.
April should check out the blog of (I'm probably getting the name wrong and I do not care to find out if that's the case) Max Blumenthal on Huffington Post. Check out that leftists apparent obsession with all gays he disagrees with politically and his agenda of "exposing" to them in order to delegitmitize them .
Then April, come back to me about whatever invented tactics you're inventing about consevatives.
You have yet to write anything that is coherent here.
Attmay, good one!

about the guy and the article for never having read it, Cal."
Chester – Now your implication, or claim-in-effect, is that because I didn't read a specific UNAVAILABLE article in Mother Jones in 1987 that you wish to quote and drive your personal anti-Reagan agenda from, I somehow wouldn't or can't possibly know enough about Shilts' biography and work to have an opinion about his journalistic character or tendencies.
Even though in reality, I have read as much – quite possibly more? – of Shilts' work over time as you or almost anybody. And taken the trouble (before all this) to learn his biography, etc.
And even though you've been completely unable, up to this point, to supply ANY corrobating evidence for that wild story of his you want to push – and for which he is (again, up to this point) the one and ONLY source.
Dude… do you even 'hear' the words coming out of your keyboard anymore? LOL 🙂
'In your mind', indeed – Excellent one, Matt.
sorry, typo… 'corroborating'
Calarato, it's a troubling reality… just because the village idiot speaks, does it mean we all have to listen? In this case, Chet, thinks Reagan was anti-gay because ActUp told him so. In Ian's case, BushCo is the all corrupting evil criminal empire because the DailyKos voices told him so.
Not all opinions are equal. The informed ones are worth more to all but the GayLeftBorg.
Chet,
My mistake. I meant #46, but that's awhile ago and perhaps that thread has grown stale.
To my mind, there are four general 'states' or possible responses to homosexuality and/or homosexuals: outright rejection, tolerance, acceptance, outright advocacy. I'm guessing Reagan stood somewhere between tolerance and acceptance. Mark Twain wrote "Travel is fatal to prejudice" and I think he meant that segregation necessarily breeds ignorance — that simple exposure can break down prejudice because most prejudice isn't malevolent, it's just ignorant. I haven't read any statements Reagan made either in support of homosexuals or against them, but it's likely he knew them and worked with them in Hollywood and because I haven't read anything negative from him, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. And I don't think he should be held responsible for statements made by others, deplorable though they may be. Moreover, while some were certainly making anti-gay statements (a subjective term) during those years, I don't recall anyone making 'pro-gay' statements (another subjective term) as they would be understood today, Republican or Democrat. And who is more responsible for negativity towards gay men, Ronald Reagan or Gerry Studds?
I also think Reagan had bigger fish to fry (the Soviet Union, for example). It's sometimes difficult to look back over history and resist the temptation to apply today's sensibilities to a time in which they were not applicable. (I'm not stating that you are doing so — it's hard to draw that conclusion from a few posts in a public forum's thread, well-written though they may be.) In the 1980s, gays were not nearly as visible and mainstream as they are today and we weren't nearly as sensitive to hurting the feelings of others as we are today. I'm not sure why it was so important for Reagan to mention AIDS in a speech (I don't think such an acknowledgment would have made a difference), especially early on when it wasn't very well understood and didn't effect a large segment of the population; gays, because of their sexuality and social position, who are so critical of Reagan re. AIDS naturally have an extremely skewed perspective. Do you see why someone might conclude that the alacrity you expect isn't applicable to an earlier, more ignorant time?
Let me also state that I do respect those who worked in the trenches educating and advocating sane behavior during those years when AIDS was just becoming known and later. I was pretty young at the time and was engaging in straight sex (though I had had one gay encounter), so I wasn't really aware of what was going on, but I do remember how scared people were, yet it was considered 'the | [

gay disease'. By the time it was a national issue, irresponsible statements were made on both sides (Pat Buchanan, Oprah Winfrey).
Well, I was going to insert my $0.02 here but HHobbitt, MMatt, Cal, Attmay, VinceP, and TGC have already done a brilliant job debunking Chetster.
I am humbled to be in such exalted company. You guys are great.
And Mean Gene – are you "Gene in PA" on a good day? (Just wondering!) If you are not, welcome aboard!
Hey Hobbit–
I think the context of Reagan's early presidency is important. In cities at least, gay people had achieved a level of tolerance after the gay liberationist uprisings of the early 1970s. Groups like the Gay Activist Alliance (it's legal wing later became Lambda) advocated for civil rights measures at the local level, education, tolerance, and so on. Then, toward the late 1970s, there was an enormous backlash — people like Anita Bryant believed that homosexuals were destroying America. Then Briggs (yay Reagan for not supporting it), and so on. This backlash culminated in 1986 with Bowers versus Hardwick. this was the cultural context of Reagan's presidency.
Again, you and others might be completely correct about Reagan's private sentiments regarding homosexuality. And, in all reality, a man of his generation probably just thought, like my grandfather did, that not many homosexuals really even existed so why worry about it! But as a public figure and a politician, I believe Reagan and his policies have to be situated in the context of the backlash against gay rights I mentioned above. Like all politicians do, I believe Reagan and his administration sort of passively rode the wave of this backlash — being anti-gay, even if through mere silence, meant votes and support. It was an awful time to be gay, and I'm glad I was just a youngster then. Aside from the ad I mentioned above — which Matt claims (probably rightly) was not paid for by Reagan himself — I do not recall Reagan publicly saying nasty things about gay people; and he probably didn't.
But passivity of the sort I've tried to document and reference here in the face of a crisis like the beginning of the AIDS epidemic, during such a crucial time….to me it can't be simply ignored or forgiven. And you and others are right that dems would have likely been no better. It was taboo to tlk about aids then because talking about aids meant talking about homosexuality. Carter would have been just as mum, I suspect. But I've never been an apologist for democrats….I've stated my outrage before at Clinton for his hypocrisy, and I'd rather be shackled to a led zepplin than vote for Hilary. To me Reagan has to be judged in his own right, not in comparison to equally incompetent dems.
I guess my main problem with Reagan goes far above and beyond his silence about aids and gays (you can't, after all, expect all that much from public figures). As a student of western democracies, I have always thought of the period from the French Revolution until 1980 as following a rather direct evolutionary pathway in terms of rights, liberties, enlightenment, and so on — what Hegel would have called the unfolding of reason in humanity. And then, in my view, 1980 happened, it was Morning in America, and a 200 year period of the slow unfolding of enlightenment suddenly, with Reagan, took a very, very strange turn. Only my view. But we can talk about all that another time.
In 1980 no body knew to "keep their peckers in their pants" as you so eloquently put it. If you were 20 years old living in NYC in the 1980s, you'd probably be dead from the disease now like so many others.
As I put over on Boi From Troy, Chet, my dogeared copy of The Joy of Gay Sex, copyright 1977, has a very in-depth section on how to avoid ending up with sexually-transmitted diseases. Oddly enough, what it tells you | [

to do protects one nicely against HIV as well.
Pleading ignorance only works when one DOESN'T have clear instructions.
A big reason for the disease's slow decline among gay men is because of the gay community's own education efforts, their efforts to create more affordable drugs, and so on.
Key words: "slow decline".
Considering that the gay community has known what causes AIDS for over twenty years, we should hardly have any new cases at all. Yet still, the disease persists at double-digit rates, especially among those who have never known anything BUT "safe sex education".
It's because gay leftists have avoided blaming the cause of HIV/AIDS — unsafe sex among gays — and instead have been blaming the disease on people who had nothing whatsoever to do with it, like Reagan.
It would be nice if, while not sacrificing your own political principles, you could show at least a modicum of respect and decorum for not only the people who died from this disease early on, when so little was known about it, but also the people in the gay community who (even though they might differ from you politically) tried to do something.
Their idea of "doing something" was to promote and try to protect bathhouse sex while blaming Ronald Reagan for allegedly trying to kill gays.
More gays died in vain because gay leftists like you were busy bashing Ronald Reagan rather than deal with your own inability to control your sexual urges and act responsibly. And frankly, to allow you to continue profanes the memory of all those who died doing what the gay community wanted — irresponsible and promiscuous sex — while you were busy blaming Reagan for killing them.
…the gay community's… efforts to create more affordable drugs…
I missed that bit earlier.
If it's meant to refer to ACT UP type of screeching for drug giveaways, for cures to be invented, etc.: What a misconception!
Inventing / creating drugs is a *difficult, creative* act. Scientists and drug companies create drugs. Not screeching activists.
And it takes profit to create new drugs. Creating new drugs is one of the absolute riskiest businesses there is. It's riskier than oil wildcatting. It takes anywhere from 100 to 200 difficult, expensive and exhausting separate drug projects (that are eventually abandoned) to lead to one large medical & market success.
It's possible that the screeching activists knocked down a few government barriers to drug creation. Maybe. Because it's equally likely that the drug companies – justly eager for profits – would have used the same deadly AIDS statistics as the screechers, plus the companies' advertising and political budgets, to get the barriers knocked.
It's possible the screechers lined up a few study volunteers that wouldn't have been there. But again: If they hadn't, the drug companies would have. Can't miss out on that market opportunity!
To the extent that the screechers have imposed price controls (in effect) on the drug companies: they have *slowed* and *harmed* drug development efforts. Again, the economics of the industry are such that there is a direct connection between the size of the profits drug companies are able to earn and the new drugs they are able to develop. Even a non-conservative like Andrew Sullivan concedes this.
So on balance, the screeching activists have probably done more harm than good, in terms of AIDS drug development.
That's the trouble when screechers screech for something, then SEEM or APPEAR to get it: they end up thinking that they did something, or that screeching is somehow creative. It isn't.
The "gay community" doesn't create AIDS drugs; nor make them more "affordable". Drug companies do.
Hey, Chet —
Thanks for responding.
To me, Reagan's 'strange turn' (as you put it) was a renewal. I'm not going to bore you with vague, florid turns of phrase to describe him (read Peggy Noonan for that), but he is a political hero of mine and probably one to most of the members of this blog.
I've never really been much of a student of German Idealism, so I can't really deny or concur with | [

your statement re. Hegel. I've of course read the Critique of Pure Reason (Kant) which influenced him and have compared Schopenhauer and Fichte, but the problem with Hegel seemed to me to be that he assumed a trajectory that is entirely divorced from the human's natural state and the natural laws espoused by true Enlightenment figures we've mentioned before (Locke, etc.). That essentially, if a concept that adds to 'social knowledge' (sorry, I'd try that in German, but I'd likely generate peals of laughter) and is subsumed into a society's concsiousness, the society is thus enlightened and the society must then act to uphold this value (which to me means government action). To my knowledge, Hegel never preached a specific brand of politics, but isn't the logical extreme of his 'enlightenment' embodied in Marx? It all seems so concerned with society and not concerned with the individual. Am I completely off?
I do find it interesting that you chose the French Revolution as the head of your 'gradual unfolding' and not the Age of Reason. The French were inspired by the American Revolution, but their slogan (Liberty, Equality, Brotherhood) was one of the great misinterpretations of history, in my view.
You meand you ASSume that I've ever read a single issue. Well, you are correct in that I've never read a single issue cover to cover (I can't do so without nausea), but I've skimmed through several. Recently, I flipped through an issue that had a multi-page timeline supposedly laying out how "Bush lied, people died" in Iraq. As is their wont, it was a collection of half-truths and liberal wishful thinking. Of course, they left out any references of the liberals who demanded something be done about the Iraq threat and left out the IAEA complaints, but you knew that already.
NDT — Do you mean the same "Joy of Gay Sex" that was written by Edmund White — a LEFTIST who also supported not only the GMHC but Act Up during the ramp up years of AIDS?
HardHobbit, you're not off at all.
Classical Marxism borrows VERY heavily from Hegel – in dialectic (logic-by-contradiction) structure, in other-worldliness (or lack of concern for humans-as-they-are) and collectivist tone, and to a certain lesser extent even in specific content.
Kant's misguided epistemology and metaphysics were a contributing factor in both. Kant led to all the German Idealists, led to Marx, led to the "Frankfurt School" (Marxist Freudians cited as justification by 60s radical terrorists). Kant and the German Idealists also led to Heidegger as well; he, the Frankfurt School, and Nietzsche then together led to what we now call Post-Modernism (Foucault, Rorty, Derrida, etc.).
It's neatly summarized here: http://www.amazon.com/Explaining-Postmodernism-Skepticism-Socialism-Rousseau/dp/1592476422/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-0629992-7104110?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1173453663&sr=8-1
A high-level, reasonably short and readable book I can recommend highly.
By the way: That Ch. is into the French (somewhat more than the American) Revolution doesn't surprise me in the least.
Valuing 'equalite' and 'fraternite' as much or more than 'liberte' – or to put it another way, emphasizing equality of results in life over equality before the law – is indeed a great historical mistake. And it is typically made by Rousseau-ian mush-heads, i.e., by closet (unadmitted) Leftists.
#84 – Cal, they should really try reading more of John Locke instead.

A receiving number is a phone number that we will forward calls to when someone calls your tracking number. It can be a mobile number, a landline, or the number for your call center. If you have a phone number that people are calling today, it can be a receiving number.
This initial setup guide will create a receiving number in your account that you can use in your call routing. If you wish to configure additional options, review the Advanced Settings section below after saving your receiving number.
If you wish to have this receiving number dial a SIP client, please see this article for more information.
Navigate to Numbers → Receiving Numbers.
If you do not have a receiving number in your account, you'll be directed to create a new receiving number. Otherwise, click New Receiving Number in the upper right corner of the page.
Enter your receiving number and optional description in the fields provided (use the drop-down menu to change the country code, if needed).
Another easy way to add new receiving numbers is to create them from the tracking number settings page. If you wish to route your tracking numbers directly to one or more receiving numbers, you can use this method for easy setup. See this article for more information on routing your tracking numbers to receiving numbers.
Navigate to Numbers → Tracking Numbers and click edit next to the tracking number you want to route to a new receiving number.
Click or scroll to the Dial Routing section of the page.
Use the drop-down menu to select Dial Receiving Numbers.
Click + Add Receiving Number to add a new row to the list.
Enter the number you wish to route calls to. If needed, you can add more receiving numbers to be dialed. Each number you enter here will create a new receiving number in your account.
If your receiving number allows you to dial directly to an extension, you can configure that extension as part of the receiving number in your CTM account.
If your phone system requires pauses between extension digits (for example, to navigate multiple menu options), enter a w character for each half second of wait time needed. For example, if you want to first enter a menu option of 3 and then dial the 1928 extension, you would enter 3ww1928 in the extension field. If you only need a pause before dialing the entire extension, you can use the "Dial Pause" drop-down instead.
Navigate to Numbers → Receiving Numbers and click edit next to the number you wish to edit.
Enter the extension to dial in the field and configure any delays needed.
Note: if you're not sure whether you need delays, try some test calls once your number has been configured. You may need to consult a phone systems expert for the receiving number if you experience issues.
This section allows you to configure a whisper message specifically for this number. If there is a whisper message set up on the call settings configuration associated with the tracking number that routed calls to this receiving number, the message you set up here will override the message on the call settings.
You can apply a schedule to this receiving number in order to control what will happen to your call route outside of the schedule's specified hours.
Note: if you have a tracking number routing to multiple receiving numbers, schedules assigned in the receiving number's settings will not apply.
For more information about schedules, see the full article here.
Configuring no-answer routing allows you to control what happens to the call if the receiving number is busy or isn't answered.
Click or scroll to the No-Answer Routing section of the page.
Select specific receiving number, menu, queue, or smart router that you wish to route to. If you haven't created the routing feature you want to use, you'll ned to do that and refresh the page in order to select it here.
Next, choose how long you want the call to ring to this receiving number before the no-answer route is used. By default, this is set to 45 seconds.
By default, no-answer routing is not configured (calls will hang up if the receiving number is busy or unanswered, unless the receiving number has its own voicemail that answers the call).
This section allows you to assign an agent to calls that are routed to this receiving number. If you are using the Salesforce integration, you can also use this section to assign a default Salesforce lead owner if an agent does not answer the call.
By default, calls are only routed to agents when they answer a call from a queue or a call that is routed directly to the agent.
If you are using automatic call tagging rules, you can set tagging hours by receiving number to have tags applied only during the hours | [

Q: How to determine accuracy with triplet loss in a convolutional neural network A Triplet network (inspired by "Siamese network") is comprised of 3 instances of the same feed-forward network (with shared parameters). When fed with 3 samples, the network outputs 2 intermediate values - the L2 (Euclidean) distances between the embedded representation of two of its inputs from
the representation of the third.
I'm using pairs of three images for feeding the network (x = anchor image, a standard image, x+ = positive image, an image containing the same object as x - actually, x+ is same class as x, and x- = negative image, an image with different class than x.
I'm using the triplet loss cost function described here.
How do I determine the network's accuracy?
A: I am assuming that your are doing work for image retrieval or similar tasks.
You should first generate some triplet, either randomly or using some hard (semi-hard) negative mining method. Then you split your triplet into train and validation set.
If you do it this way, then you can define your validation accuracy as proportion of the number of triplet in which feature distance between anchor and positive is less than that between anchor and negative in your validation triplet. You can see an example here which is written in PyTorch.
As another way, you can directly measure in term of your final testing metric. For example, for image retrieval, typically, we measure the performance of model on test set using mean average precision. If you use this metric, you should first define some queries on your validation set and their corresponding ground truth image.
Either of the above two metric is fine. Choose whatever you think fit your case.
A: So I am performing a similar task of using Triplet loss for classification. Here is how I used the novel loss method with a classifier.
First, train your model using the standard triplet loss function for N epochs. Once you are sure that the model ( we shall refer to this as the embedding generator) is trained, save the weights as we shall be using these weights ahead.
Let's say that your embedding generator is defined as:
class EmbeddingNetwork(nn.Module):
def __init__(self):
super(EmbeddingNetwork, self).__init__()
self.conv1 = nn.Sequential(
nn.Conv2d(1, 64, (7,7), stride=(2,2), padding=(3,3)),
nn.BatchNorm2d(64),
nn.LeakyReLU(0.001),
nn.MaxPool2d((3, 3), 2, padding=(1,1))
)
self.conv2 = nn.Sequential(
nn.Conv2d(64,64,(1,1), stride=(1,1)),
nn.BatchNorm2d(64),
nn.LeakyReLU(0.001),
nn.Conv2d(64,192, (3,3), stride=(1,1), padding=(1,1)),
nn.BatchNorm2d(192),
nn.LeakyReLU(0.001),
nn.MaxPool2d((3,3),2, padding=(1,1))
)
self.fullyConnected = nn.Sequential(
nn.Linear(7*7*256,32*128),
nn.BatchNorm1d(32*128),
nn.LeakyReLU(0.001),
nn.Linear(32*128,128)
)
def forward(self,x):
x = self.conv1(x)
x = self.conv2(x)
x = self.fullyConnected(x)
return torch.nn.functional.normalize(x, p=2, dim=-1)
Now we shall using this embedding generator to create another classifier, fit the weights we saved before to this part of the network and then freeze this part so our classifier trainer does not interfere with the triplet model. This can be done as:
class classifierNet(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, EmbeddingNet): | [
