Content warning: This post will invariably discuss some rather uncomfortable topics. I am attempting to stay as safe-for-work as I can, but exposing something necessitates exposing its ugly aspects.
If you are still reading at this point, I trust that you are in a situation where some rather unsavoury content will not embarass or otherwise scandalize you. It is not my intention to do either, but this topic does not lend itself to being sanitized for public consumption.
As the Big Bear and many others have pointed out, the past decades have been a major taking of every available Lust-ticket. Some of this was enabled by technological discoveries, such as reliable contraception and video streaming. Other things were due to social movements, however engineered they may have been, such as the push for divorce and various LGBetc causes. Either way, it is fair to say that practically everyone now has the ability to indulge his or her lust in all of its forms. So what is the next ticket?
Again, the Big Bear was comfortably ahead of schedule on this one, but I am going to write it up anyway: Wrath. That is the next ticket that we are offered. With 3d-printed guns right around the corner, this one will be almost as widely accessible as the pornos. Before I delve into ways to resist the Wrath-ticket, allow me to provide additional evidence that this is, in fact, the new ticket.
Jeffrey Epstein is now a household name in most of the West. More specifically, court documents just got unsealed, and they are not redacted particularly well. People are about to discover very unsavoury things about most public figures. So we have a motive, ie a Wrath-ticket. The means to act on it have been discussed above. Much as I do not wish to disparage Qanon, some of the information there is also Wrath-tickets. Something being true does not protect it from being used as a ticket. As a matter of fact, spells can be interwoven. For instance, taking the Jew-Hate Wrath-ticket leads one to feeding the Jews' own Fear-Spell.
Now onto the useful stuff, namely how to resist taking various Wrath-tickets on offer:
1) Jesus, part I: Everyone is made in the image and glory of a God who loves them so much that He went and died for them. That includes Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine ( conveniently pronounced Jizz-Lane ) Maxwell, and their entire operation. Torturing and / or killing any one of these people out of wrath is an offense against God. The obvious exemption is the death penalty after a court trial. That does not involve wrath, as there is considerable deliberation, and an effort to prevent unnecessary suffering.
2) Your mental health: Killing people, however justified, is not an easy thing on your conscience, and for good reason. Ask anyone who has taken a human life, even by accident. There is a reason for the considerable efforts to dehumanize anyone that the powers-that-be want you to kill. Taking human life, especially by well-informed choice, is ideally avoided. I fully understand that it cannot, and should not, be avoided at all costs, but I can confidently say that I would rather not kill anyone, ever.
3) Jesus, Part II: "Vengeance is mine, says the Lord." That phrase is so biblical that other parts of the Bible quote it. While it is a straightforward instruction to not engage in the Wrath-ticket of revenge, it is also a beautiful reassurance to the believer. You are under no obligation whatsoever to avenge anyone. God has given us His Word that he gets the last say anyway, so he will sort things out. There is no reason to believe for one second that Jeffrey Epstein will get his due, whatever that may be. Not killing yourself is no escape from the Creator of Justice.
4) Jesus, Part III: This is not a particularly strong one, especially for people you hate, but it deserves a mention: Repentance. Jesus Christ of Nazareth forgives sins. He does not forgive certain sins at the exclusion of others. He forgives anything and everything, if you can prove to Him that you understand the error of your ways and attempt to rectify what you have done, whatever shape that may take. This forgiveness is also independent of time or any other constraint. Five minutes before not killing himself, Jeffrey Epstein had ample opportunity to repent and save his soul. For all we know, he may have done that. Unlikely as it may be, I hope that he did. The reason this goes into not taking Wrath-tickets is fairly simple: if you kill someone, you are denying them that opportunity. Maybe Ghislaine Maxwell or Prince Andrew or whoever was going to come clean and fix the situation five minutes after you blew their head off. Congratulations, you just eliminated that option. How do you think God will feel about your doing that when you meet Him?
5) Collateral Damage: As most other temptations, Wrath does not lend itself to particularly precise, judicious, or careful application. Attempting to take your anger out on guilty people will harm innocent people, one way or another. Not a good look for your mental health, or your salvation.
It does not take a genius to figure out that we are about to be on the receiving end of a cacophony of Wrath-tickets. It will, however, be difficult to resist the temptation to take them. I hope that I can reduce the amount of Wrath-tickets being taken with this writing.
