Maybe kids are being kids again?

I loved my stroller. I lived near the highway and would hang out on an overpass of I-70 and talk to the truckers as they passed under me.

Of course, this was all before the Internet existed. Being maybe 12've… The truckers were awesome. They were honking at me as they passed under the bridge.

Yes, I lived in the sticks.

An EMP might do us some good!

I could feel the world ache decades ago. I am more at the numb stage having been aware of just how bad things are for so long. Now, I am "enjoying the ride".

All glory be to God. The battle has already been won, only a few seem to know it.

The Origins of “kill Them All and Let God Sort It Out”

 

—“In 1209, Pope Innocent III decided it was time to crack down on followers of a religious sect that had become popular in Southern France. Originally called Albigensians, they came to be more widely known as the Cathars.

 

Cathars were Christians. But they rejected the authority of the Pope and other key aspects of Catholicism, so they were deemed heretics by the Catholic Church.

 

This apparently didn’t matter much to most people living in the French town of Beziers.

 

Catholics and Cathars had lived there together for many years in relative harmony.

 

On July 22, 1209, they were celebrating the annual Feast of Mary Magdalene together, a religious holiday observed by various Christian religions.

 

Suddenly, the festivities were cut short when an army of “Crusaders” sent by Pope Innocent III showed up outside the walls of the town.

 

The military leader of the army was Simon de Montfort, a French nobleman highly motivated by the Pope’s promise that he could keep the land of any heretics he killed.

 

The Crusaders were accompanied by an official representative of the Pope, a French Cistercian monk named Arnaud Amalric (also variously referred to as Arnald Amalric and Arnauld-Amaury).

 

De Montfort demanded that the leaders of Beziers turn over the town’s Cathar heretics to him. They refused. The Crusaders attacked.

 

According to accounts written decades later, as the attack began, a soldier asked Amalric how they would be able to tell which Beziers townspeople were Catholics and which were Cathars.

 

Amalric supposedly answered (in French):

 

“Kill them all. God will recognize his own.”

 

Some sources give the alleged quote as “Kill them all, for the Lord knows his own” or as “Kill them all. The Lord knows his own.”

 

It eventually came to be most commonly paraphrased as:

 

“Kill them all and let God sort them out.”
