Burning Sage is Demonic

[Johny Joe Hold]

While moving around Freehold I watch for activities that might mean sin is moving into our city. Fortunately, I do not see trouble, like smelling marijuana, very often. This past year I've been especially vigilant for the burning of sage.

Sales of sage have increased by multiples in the past four years. It is used by savage Indians to connect with their fake spirits.

White people don't seem to realize it is a form of witchcraft. There is only one word for sage, demonic. I was happy to read another church also sees the demonic aspects of this terrible substance.

Re: Burning Sage is Demonic

Dear oh dear oh dear, Brother Mr Mayor, Sir. You cannot be too vigilant in the matter of burning herbal substances. This is the second story I have heard this week on the subject.

Only yesterday, I was alerted to a similar vile practice in the hellhole of Iran, currently third (behind Canada and Italy) on the list of the world's most demonic countries. It seems that some sort of witchdoctor there is urging people to set fire to "rue" in an entirely futile attempt to ward off the Corvid virus. No, I don't know what "rue" is either. But that is not all! Here is the story:

A local cleric from the Iranian city of Qom has suggested a novel cure for the new coronavirus ...

In a post to over 120,000 followers on the social messaging service Telegram, Tabrizian, a purveyor of traditional Islam medicine, listed several alternative techniques for fighting the spread of the contagious disease, known as Covid-19... Tabrizian recommends consuming copious amounts of brown sugar, burning wild rue, as well as inhaling snuff.

His eighth tip is the most striking: "Before bedtime, drench some cotton in violet oil and apply onto your anus".

Jeremiah 46:11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.

(quoting a Wuhan plague remedy from Qom)

"Before bedtime, drench some cotton in violet oil…" etc.

Why would anyone would come up with such an idiotic remedy? Well, there could be other benefits. I'll try to keep it brief due to what's involved. It is immensely important for everything to be done in very specific ways, the angle one's foot points, whether or not the nose should touch carpet during the grovelling exercise, what words one should speak whether one understands them or not, every minute detail is covered and every detail is insane. There are some things which, when offered the choice of acquiescing or having one's head swiped off, render the latter option more agreeable.

abase

1. To abase something or someone is to humiliate them.….If you abase another person you are bringing them low, humbling them in a mean, base manner.

2. Abase means to bring someone down, often either in their job or their self-esteem. The early Latin bassus, which meant "thick, low," evolved into the Old French abaissier, meaning "to make lower in value or status." The important clue to the word is "base." Consider that the base of anything is the bottom, and you get an idea as to the meaning of the word abase, which means to make someone feel low.

That seems a very funny way to sit. Every detail is decreed, from the angle of the foot to the position of the hands. And sometimes I've been asked to sit in what seemed an unusual position to me, inelegant even, but still better than decapitation. Even if they said,"No, could you cock your foot up a bit more and lift your chin up another inch" ..but I said I'd be brief. Using the scroll bar takes you to position 2. Yes, even more ridiculous. Yes, he is rubbing his nose into the carpet. What was pressed into that bit of carpet before he stuck his nose in? For that we need to consider an actual carpet. The pile has stripes so that you'll know where to sit and grovel. From infancy you've been instructed EXACTLY how to sit, EXACTLY how to angle your foot, EXACTLY where to shove your nose, EXACTLY what to do at every moment of your abasement exercise. And that's what it is. They probably call it something else but check out the following:

[/COLOR]Now obviously the background group of four have finished (or are warming up for) the grovelling activity. Notice how, even though relaxing, the man with the flowerpot hat keeps his heel well to the side, enabling the violet oil to infuse the carpet. Assuming it's been applied that is to say. If not the standard exudates will be soaking in. Also notice how his companions are not aligned with the stripe on the carpet. They crouch there for a bit, then tip themselves up position 2 and back down again, then the violets get elevated again while whoever was behind you note the relatively close proximity of the lines do I really need to go on? Recall that where this routine was dreamed up it's about 120˚F in the shade most days and altogether very strong sales of violet fragrance for application as recommended by the cleric could be predicted. Unless they prefer the other fragrance. Unadulterated.

I never thought I’d see the day again when the burning of sage hit the headlines. I believed that the heathen practise had been eradicated back in 1930 with the “Freehold Sage Disaster.”

Back in the day, Pastor Lamentations Flint was at a Christian conference about Rural Poverty in Hawaii and his place had been taken by XXX. After the service, Malachi Price mentioned so someone that he was going to grow a harvest of sage on his land. The idea was to corner the market at Thanksgiving and nobody thought any more about it.

The crop must have been brought in somewhere in September and set aside to dry. It was then that Pastor L Flint had his first case of Demon Possession to deal with since that March. The child was foaming green at the mouth and had an earthy, but not unappetizing, smell about it. The devil was beaten out of the child but a few days later another appeared, and then another… The source had to be found and yet the children were unable to help. Once having had the devil beaten out of them, they seemed to lose all memory of what had happened.

There were several stories about a man some 8’ tall being seen at dusk near The Old Bridge, and there were tales of children digging for treasure in the Old Injun Graveyard, but nothing ever came of these. Prayer Warriors worked night and day for an answer; new Bibles were given out to the needy; Biblical instruction was increased from 4 hours to 6 hours on a Sunday, Pastor L Flint was almost at his wits’ end but a steady stream of children with the symptoms kept appearing.

In a sermon memorable for the passion with which it was given, the curses that were laid upon the malefactor, and 26 cases of members fainting through fright of the torments of Hell, Pastor L Flint called upon The Host of Heaven to reveal unto him the source of the witchcraft. The Great Hall fell silent. It was a silence as deep as the grave – I can remember my father, who had a way with words, being so impressed that he did away with Biblical references by saying “It was as if you could hear a mouse pissing on cottonwool or like the silence when everyone’s quiet.”

The silence did not last long before a wail of a soul taken by Satan pierced the Great Hall and Malachi Price made a run for the door. The congregation was in uproar but Pastor L Flint silenced them with a great cry of “HE HAS BEEN REVEALED! THE LORD HAS SPOKEN” The congregation turned and Pastor L Flint added the immortal theological dictum “M't:7:12: Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Matthew 7:12… And if you are Christians you would want to be put to death!”

The mob left the church and took to the road and the Price place. Even the swiftest were too late, Malachi Price’s John Deere tractor was one of the fastest vehicles in the county, and by the time the mob reached the place, smoke was billowing out from the sage-drying barn and flames licked through the house.

Pastor L Flint organised a bucket chain, but as the nearest water was 3 miles away, by the time the first bucket arrived there was little left but the ashes and the 6 bodies that were the Price family. Worse still, those near the smoke were reporting vision, in equal amounts, of Heaven and Hell. Stakes were driven through the hearts of each family member and they were buried in unmarked graves.

It later transpired that Malachi Price had been enticing local children to work as unpaid labor in turning the sage. To keep costs down, he’d fed them sage and moonshine. It was clear that it was the sage that did it – it allowed the entry of demons into the children.
