Occupy Library Square



4/6/2012 Occupy Salt Lake City moved from Gallivan Center to Library Square.  Despite what some "news" reports state- I am here to tell you- Occupy is ALIVE AND WELL!  In fact, not just alive and well, but the vibe there is nothing less than amazing.  There is a completely different energy at Library Square.  You can see the sky, and trees, birds, flowers, and PEOPLE that smile and engage you- not just concrete and sky scrapers.

The core members of OccupySLC were mostly present and accounted for- coloring eggs, singing and laughing.  It is a beautiful environment.

As people walk, ride, drive by the Occupants wave, smile and greet them.  It was so nice to see the response from those walking by and riding by on bicycles, some stopped just to return the greeting.  I sincerely believe the change of scenery is a huge benefit to the movement in the Salt Lake valley,  
giving a much needed opportunity to engage passers by.


As Easter and Spring are in the air it was not too out of the ordinary to see all the beautiful paint colors and the eggs being decorated.  My children enjoyed very much the opportunity to decorate eggs with gold paint and bright colored powders.

In conclusion- my take on the move is only that it was a great thing for the movement and I am thrilled with the new energy with Occupy!

Apparently, Liberals Are The Illuminati

posted 10/5/2012 by the Salt City Sinner Greetings, sheeple, from my stronghold high atop the Wells Fargo Building in downtown Salt City, where I type this before a massive, glowing bank of monitors that display the ongoing progress of my 23-point plan for complete social control. Whether you want to demonize me as a "liberal," or prefer the Glenn Beck update "progressive," we all know the truth, and it's time to pull the curtain aside: like all left-leaning persons, I am actually a member of the Illuminati. How else to explain how much power my side of the aisle wields in U.S. American politics? According to conservatives, liberals/the Illuminati control the media * , science * , academia in general * , public schools * , public radio * , pretty much anything "public," the courts * , and Hollywood * . Hell, we pretty much control everything except for scrappy, underdog operations like WND and Fox News, or quiet, marginalized voices like...

God, Power, Fear, and Donald Trump

Posted on 11/23/2019 by the Salt City Sinner What does it mean to love God, what does it mean to love power, and what does it mean to love Donald Trump? Are these separate questions, or have they become scrambled together? Given that 81% of Evangelicals voted for Trump , it’s safe to conclude that the latter is the case. Unpacking the tangled webbing of fear, greed, superstition, and credulity that binds white Evangelicals to Donald J. Trump, the most profane and libertine President in United States history, will be the project of generations. Religious conservatives didn’t get here overnight, and it’s an odd place for them to have arrived at, but the journey isn’t as mysterious as it might seem at first glance. A good place to start is Believe Me: the Evangelical Road to Donald Trump , by John Fea . Fea’s book is an attempt to answer these questions in a serious way, and from the standpoint of one who shares many of the values and presuppositions of the average parish...
