But we don't follow the 10 Commandments do we?
For example it's lawful to kill in self defence or in war. One can commit adultery & you don't have to honour your mother and father. Fact is it's a set religious moral rules that people who follow Abramic religions are supposed to comply with. In other words it's not Law. |

Judging by the number of sects within the church and the difference in view between them it seems the Bible is very much open to interpretation. Add to that the Freeman love of taking a phrase here and a word there and making something that was never intended, it would be a nightmare for anyone travelling between communities.

In Germany and France it's still very common to use ALL CAPS for the surname.
Some of the freeman videos I've seen have members of the Moorish Temple of Science in them. I drive past there once in a while; they wear cool hats. Anyway, I have wondered if there is any connection. |

You can get all that, as well as fried pickles, fried Oreos, and fried ice cream at the Texas State Fair and the San Antonio Rodeo. I think we do fried Snickers or Milky Ways instead of Mars Bars, though. And then of course there's the great-great-grampa of them all, the corn dog!

Good job! They look perfect.
The batter is supposed to be slightly sweet - the idea is that you get a nice mix of a tiny bit of sweet from the batter, savory from the hot dog, and tangy from the mustard (it has to be yellow mustard, by the way - something like Grey Poupon or pub mustard won't get the blend of flavors right.) But there was a discussion on FC a while back in which it developed that many Americans like a savory flavor, like sausage, mixed with a sweet flavor, like maple syrup - as when you have pancakes and sausage for breakfast - and most of the Brits thought it sounded disgusting, so we might be talking incompatible concepts. ![]() ETA: I love that you have to go to a health food store for corn meal. For many years here in the southern U.S. cornbread was the staple bread for a lot of low-income people - rich people were sometimes called "white bread," and bread made from flour was a special treat. In fact, one of my favorite meals (left over from a childhood that was sometimes money-strapped due to an alcoholic father) is pinto beans and cornbread. Yum! |

Looks like poor Ben Lowery is getting very confused and frustrated as the inevitable penny begins to drop.

He's so close! The sad thing is, what he really seems to want is something he can probably get. If he wants to stop "them" from debt collection, he could just file bankruptcy. Otherwise, he's right, "they" are going to come and take all of his stuff.
That whole video is just really sad. He must know deep down by now that FOTL just doesn't work - he even admitted that they're just going to come in and take his stuff. But he's so invested in it now and it sounds like he's lost so much that he doesn't seem willing to admit that the whole thing is a fraud. Anyone who seriously believes in FOTL and has any tangible assets needs to watch that video. If you follow this path to its conclusion, you are going to end up just like that guy. This is the FOTL end-game. It doesn't work, you lose all of your stuff, and then they have no more use for you. |

Sorry to double-post, but he made another video. It's basically the same thing, but starting at around 4:54 through the video you can actually watch him realize that FOTL is a fraud.
Any FOTLer want to step to the plate and tell him what he did wrong? No egg-shell blue paper? Forget the bloody thumbprint? Or could it be that he's right and that, yes, everyone just ignored his notices? |

I have just added a comment recommending he read up on cargo cults.
It may get him to his senses? |

And guess what, thats why it didnt work. It wont matter though , we can simply wait for the next "straw clutcher" to come along and make an arse of him/herself. Its all good fun watching them fail, I couldnt care less about the idiots who do it, its the ones telling others to do it that gets my goat. |

My comment on cargo cults and why courts ignore his papers have been deleted. I guess he prefer his fantasy world.
