  1. Nah, definitely not from Missouri. Utah on the other hand, that might be possible; the state’s sizable Mormon population clearly doesn’t like Trump’s brand of politics much given Evan McMullin’s extremely strong performance in that state in 2016 (over 20% of the vote), and the fact that McMullin’s running for Senate there this year.

  2. Dylan: I have not commented on this thread until now. I never use a pseudonym. I only post under my own name.

  3. No. I have never used a pseudonym. Whomever that is it is not me. I not only use my real name, but I say where I live, work, and provide my phone number. Hiding is not something I do.

  4. Of course I still work at Motel 6.I have been here for 13 years and have spent the last 30 years in the hotel business. I am not going anywhere for the foreseeable future. I am thinking about moving to Mexico when I start getting my Social Security, but that won’t be for at least 3 years.

  5. Are you going to be a mule for a Mexican drug cartel, Satanist stock? Maybe you will get American girls hooked on the cartel dope and bring them back to Mexico with you to put them in the donkey show? Is this your satanic mission at motel 666?

  6. I would like to live where there is no snow or ice. I am thinking about Merida, Yucatan so that I can visit the Maya Pyramids. And the beach is about 30 to 50 miles away. I don’t mind heat or humidity, but I hate the cold.

    On my 60th birthday in 2018 I went to Mexico City to see Aztec artifacts and then went to Teotihuacan where I climbed to the top of the Pyramid of the Sun. 213 feet. It nearly killed me, but I did it.

    I am not fluent but I speak enough Spanish to get around. I have always loved Mexico. In High School my Spanish class spent a weekend in Ensenada, Baja California. We stayed with local families. It was great.

  7. Stock should just illegally cross the border just like he wants illegals to do here. He can also learn about guilty until proven innocent, like he wants here.

  8. Fred: I definitely agree with open borders. I have no idea why you think that I disagree with innocent until proven guilty. I do not think that one is guilty until proven innocent. But then again, you don’t care about what is or isn’t true.

  9. az: I did a quick Google search. It brought up 9 in San Francisco and Oakland. There are many more in the surrounding towns.

    Along with the New Age Commies you mentioned, San Francisco was the place where Anton LaVey founded the Church of Satan on April 30th, 1966. The Church of Satan headquarters remained in San Francisco until 2001 when it was moved to Poughkeepsie, New York.

  10. I made a mistake. The Church of Satan Headquarters moved to the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood of New York City in 2001 and then moved to Poughkeepsie, New York a few years later.

  11. Stock obviously has no clue how the Mexican legal system works. He really doesn’t have a clue on anything.

  12. Rick: I would like to move to Mexico because of the warm weather and lower cost of living. I have known many American retirees who live better in Mexico than they would if they stayed in the United States. I met the first of these back in 1974. Retiring in Mexico has been on my mind ever since.

  13. Mr. Bill: I am only interested in adult women. I have no desire for a relationship with any woman under the age of 40.

    Wally: The Church of Satan has no sacraments of any kind. I recommend you read the FAQ at the Church of Satan website. It will clear up your misconceptions.

  14. Sacrament may be the wrong word. Doesn’t your religion say it’s ok to lie? Then again, would you tell me the truth about that or anything else?

  15. Wally: Satanists will tell lies the same way as when a wife asks, “Do these jeans make me look fat?”. A husband will usually lie if he knows what’s good for him. Depending on the situation lying is not wrong. But there is no place in Satanic literature or practice where Satanists are told they must lie. Lying is not part of the religion. But lying once in a while is part of being a considerate compassionate humanbeing.

  16. Speaking of Mexico, wasn’t there a poster here who allegedly murdered, mutilated and buried his ex-wife in a shallow grave in Mexico?

  17. Sextus: Satanic Statement #8 is referring to what are commonly known as the 7 Deadly Sins. Such as Lust, Gluttony, Sloth, Pride, and the others. Lying is not part of those things.

    Just because you think lying is a sin does not mean that lying is included in #8 of the Satanic Statements. IT IS NOT.

    When you make a mistake do you learn from the experience and move on or do you torture yourself with endless guilt and wallow in emotional pain for the rest of your life?

    Thank you for posting the link to the 9 Satanic Statements. It is good that people can see for themselves how you are distorting and misrepresenting what is Satanism. Everyone can now see that you are the one lying.

  18. Greed, Envy, and Wrath are the three other 7 Deadly Sins that are the subject of Satanic Statement #8. Again, lying is not one of them.

  19. I don’t see “seven deadly” as a qualifier for sins in the citation. It just says all the so called sins. Lying is clearly a sin in the Christian religion. Therefore, the inescapable conclusion is that Satanists celebrate lying. If that’s the case, a Satanist denying this by inserting “seven deadly” where they don’t exist is just another lie, which the Satanist celebrates.

  20. Satan is known as the father of lies. Even if you take Satanists at their word that they don’t actually believe in Satan – and there’s a good chance they are lying – they celebrate what he represents in Christianity. And lying is clearly one of the things he represents.

  21. Sextus: Your reasoning is bullshit. As my comment above explains lying is not always wrong. There are times lying is the most considerate, compassionate, humane thing a person can do. It all depends on the situation.

  22. So how would we know when you’re lying to us and when you’re not? Any of your statements, including that one, could be a lie.

  23. Sextus: In the Satanic Bible in the section called The Book of Lucifer under the chapter heading Some Evidence Of A New Satanic Age which is found on pages 46-48 Anton LaVey specifically lists the 7 Deadly Sins as being the sins that lead to the physical, mental, and emotional gratification of observing Satanic Statement #8. LaVey specifically mentions all seven. Once more lying is not included.

  24. Sextus: How do I know that everything you say is not a lie? You don’t even have the courage to give your real name. You hide like the coward you are behind a pseudonym. Beginning with who you are you are dishonest. Why should anyone believe you about anything?

  25. Kevin: I have never used a pseudonym. I only post under my own name. My phone number is 405 962 9528 Call me and I will talk to you right now.

  26. Satan is the father of lies, and just because the seven deadly sins are later listed as examples of sins which should be indulged in and celebrated doesn’t mean that other sins such as lying are not considered worthy of celebrating in the Satanist religion.

  27. RE- LIES — HOW ABOUT THAT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS IN THE 10 C. ???

    AKA PERJURY IN THE LAW OF NON-DEVIL REGIMES.

  28. As much as I appreciate that many of you have abundant surplus time to engage in ineffective derogatory banter, I am apparently too gullible to expect any actual discussion of the news item in question – which, if based in reality, could be a foreshadowing of a potential surprise in the next election cycle.

  29. az: Whatever is written in the Bible is irrelevant to me. The 10 Commandments are not worth the stone they were supposedly chiseled on.

    Perjury in a court of law is one of the times where lying is wrong and should never be done.
    Lying to the FBI is similarly always wrong.

    Perjury and lying to the FBI are wrong because a group of humans created rules of conduct on how to interact with each other and back up those rules with guns and jail.

    At other times lying is a good thing and only an idiot will tell the truth at certain times. It all depends on the situation. Sometimes lying is wrong and sometimes lying is not wrong.

    Right or wrong, under no circumstances is lying a sin.

  30. Ok, so stock admitted he thinks lying is a good thing unless under oath in court or to the fbi. That would mean he thinks lying here in these comments is good.

  31. Sextus: I have not lied on this site. This is not one of the situations where I think lying is OK. However you have no problem lying on this site. And that is not OK.

    I am flattered by your obsession with me.

  32. Sextus: I have been extremely clear that I think lying is good in some situations and bad in other situations. It all depends on the situation. Why is that so difficult a concept for you to understand?

    This site is about 3rd parties and political opinion. There is no advantage for me to lie on this site. I could say that I am a die hard Trump supporter and get a huge amount of at a boys and virtual high fives.

    What benefit do you think I get from honestly speaking my mind about Satan, God, and Left Wing Politics knowing that my opinion is in the extreme minority? Why would I lie?

  33. Simple manipulation. For example, your claim that you don’t post under additional names. Another lie you have told is that I have lied or have no problem with lying.

  34. Sextus: Manipulate who and for what reason? I am expressing opinions.

    Everything I say can be easily discovered by the simplest Google search. Maybe I point something out that someone has never considered.

    I have certainly received information on this site that that I did not know before. The people who visit this site have brains and can figure out what is what. They can also read between the lines about which posters are being honest and which posters are purposely trying to sling mud.

    Spoiler alert, it’s you and your alter egos who are dishonest mud slingers. Keep up your attempts at questioning my character. And please keep up the vile things you say about everyone who is not Anglo-Saxon. Keep listing all those who you think deserve a helicopter ride. Everyone who reads your words know what you are.

  35. I don’t have any alter egos, unlike you. Manipulate your audience, obviously. For the reason of deceiving them, emulating the archetype of Satan the grand deceiver, whether you actually believe in him or not. I don’t know where you got the idea that I’m Anglo Saxon or wish helicopter rides on anyone. Certainly not from anything I said. I don’t even know who you have me confused with or more likely are trying to confuse me with to deceive other people.
