2018 Sued For Having Been Too Modern

Womble family sue 2018 for having been too modern



A family from Ventnor, NJ are trying to sue 2018 for being too modern.


Mr. & Mrs. Womble Last Weekend


"There's a natural order in the universe," said father of two, Dick Womble. "And that's the order ordained by God."
According to Mr Womble, the invention of indoor plumbing, supermarkets, television and the internet are not in the Bible and therefore ungodly and to be shunned. Whilst the Jersey Shore is still part of the USA, Mr Womble will be petitioning the Courts so that he may sue 2018 for having existed.

"Our children have had to share a school with boys who wear dresses," Mr Womble said. "My wife and I are disgusted."

"I'm disgusted," said Mrs Henrietta Womble, "at everything my husband has said." We asked them how many boys wearing dresses attended their daughter's school. "Well, none" said Mrs. Womble. "We Homeschool so that our daughter is not exposed to such things....but we saw a picture on the internet!"

"Where in the bible does it say that men wear dresses?" Mr Womble demanded. "Apart from the children’s one that shows Jesus and all his disciples in a frock? And all those bishops and popes and vicars in dresses. We blame the internet."

"The internet," said Mrs Womble, "shows us the rest of the world."

According to the Wombles, the Internet lets people see what other people think, and this is obviously a bad thing.

"We should be told what to think by God," said Mr Womble. "Through his intermediaries here on Earth who are just and godly."

The previous three priests that the Wombles prayed with have all been arrested for sexual offences.

The Wombles have cited that all this modernity, especially the realisation that there is more to biology than the creationist explanations in High School, is confusing to children brought up solely on a diet of simplified religion.


"Our Book provides all the answers anybody needs," Mr Womble. "As long as they don't have actual questions.

Mr Womble also refuses to admit that there is more than one Book, and that the stories within his own Book are as likely true as a badly rendered comic book.

"We wish to return to a more holy existence," Mr Womble said. "A time when we didn't have electricity, running water, flushing toilets, schooling, indoor jobs without heavy lifting, women in work and divorce. People have often said that the Isle of Wight is stuck in the fifties, well I don't think that's far enough back, we should be living in pre-Roman times! That was the time when everybody followed the Bible."

Mrs Womble looked at her husband, tutted and left with her bags.

Solstice Music 2024

  null by Ben New Check out more of my new music on bandcamp. This song (and it's longer companion on the album "Eight Ways To Sunday"  focus on celebrating the sun and its connection with life.  The Summer Solstice can be an influence, a strength, an energy, a source of clarity and inspiration.        The Estonian myth of Dusk & Dawn: 'Koit ja Hämarik', first published in 1840. T he Old Man of the Sky has two trustworthy helpers, who have been gifted with eternal youth. It is they who are responsible for the sun each day. In the beginning, when the sun had finished its very first journey across the sky, the Old Man said to Dusk: “Into your care, my girl, I will give the setting sun. You have to douse the light every night, so it will not harm anybody on its way to slumber.”The next morning, when the sun needed to start its next journey across the vast expanse of the blue sky, The Old Man said to Dawn: “Your job, my boy, will be to relight the sun every morni

Why The Outer Limits was such a Great Television Show

Why were the OUTER LIMITS so wonderful? Let's just look at this one episode "The O.B.I.T." The ‘all-seeing eye’ has been a source of science fiction for many years. Consider George Orwell’s 1948 classic, 1984. The Outer Limits episode, O.B.I.T.  (which initially aired during the first season of the classic sci-fi television series on 4 November in 1963)  takes the idea to an even more sinister level. Wikipedia gives a very nice synopsis of the episode: Opening narration: In this room, twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, security personnel at the Defense Department’s Cypress Hills Research Center keep constant watch on its scientists through O.B.I.T., a mysterious electronic device whose very existence was carefully kept from the public at large. And so it would have remained but for the facts you are about to witness. Plot: While inquiring into the murder of an administrator at a government research facility, a U.S. senator is confronted with paranoia, secrecy, an

Born To Be Wheeled - Home on the Range of Disinformation

Image
S usceptibility to disinformation is the illiteracy of the internet age. We have a tendency to view conspiracy theories as theories, statements about the world that can be either true or false. Since they are typically false, we treat them as flawed explanations, premised on logical inconsistencies or faulty evidence. The expression “conspiracy theory” was coined by a philosopher of science, Karl Popper, to designate the incapacity to understand social events as the outcome of a many interdependent processes. He saw them instead as the expression of a single and omnipotent will. The “conspiracy theory of society,” Popper wrote , was something akin to “a primitive kind of superstition.” This has remained the prevalent view ever since: in an influential article published ten years ago, two Harvard scholars—Cass Sunstein and Adrian Vermeule— called them “crippled epistemologies.” This is certainly how I've seen them. With increasing occurrences of people whom I would think would know
