Judaism and Islam are two sides of the same counterfeit coin. Both exist to deceive and obscure the truth of Christ and Christianity and lead me astray. While they differ in history and practice, both ultimately reject God’s provision for man’s salvation through His Son, and replace it with the teachings and works of men.

By “Judaism,” I am not referring to the faith of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or the prophets of the Old Testament who looked forward in faith to the coming Redeemer; for this version no longer exists. I am referring to modern Rabbinic Judaism, often called Talmudic Judaism, whose foundations emerged after the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 A.D. It bears little resemblance to the Old Testament faith of those who trusted that God Himself would provide the Lamb and restore man’s broken relationship with Him.

The Talmud contains sixty-three tractates of rabbinical writings interpreting and expanding upon the Law. It represents the continuation of the Pharisaical tradition described throughout the New Testament. According to rabbinic teaching, once God gave the Torah to Moses, its interpretation passed into human hands. The rabbis cited Deuteronomy 30:12—“It is not in heaven”—to argue that the authority to determine the Law no longer rested with God, but with those who interpreted it on earth, even if God Himself disagreed with their conclusions.

Rabbinic tradition even maintains the absurd claim that after losing a debate over the Law, God declared, “My children have defeated me! My children have defeated me!” From this reversal of authority grew the legalism of Talmudic Judaism, where man’s interpretation became supreme and righteousness was measured by obedience to an ever-expanding body of religious rules rather than by faith in God’s promised Redeemer.

This is more than a disagreement over doctrine. Once men believe they earn God’s favor through their own righteousness, they inevitably begin to see themselves as spiritually superior to those outside their religion. Pride becomes the natural fruit of a works-based faith.

That pride inevitably shapes how they view those outside their religion. Christians and other Gentiles were simply “goyim”—outsiders who stood beneath those who believed themselves to be God’s chosen people. The treatment of one’s enemies is often the clearest window into the true spirit of a religion.

Islam follows precisely the same pattern.

Muhammad claimed that an “angel of light” revealed a new message that superseded the teachings of Jesus, reducing Him to the status of a prophet and replacing the finished work of Christ with submission to the Quran and obedience to Allah. Like Rabbinic Judaism, Islam became a religion in which acceptance before God is pursued through works. In both systems, religious authority becomes inseparable from power over others, so that faith is expressed not through grace toward one’s enemies but through dominion over them.

The result is the same view of the outsider. Those who reject Islam are “kafirs”—infidels or rejectors of the truth. Throughout much of Islamic history they were expected to submit to Muslim rule or pay tribute in order to live under it. Even the name “Islam” means “submission.” As with Rabbinic Judaism, the religion’s view of salvation shaped its view of its enemies.

Long before Muhammad’s birth, however, the Apostle Paul warned that such claims would arise. In Galatians 1:8 he wrote, “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.”

Christians therefore do not evaluate Muhammad’s claims by his sincerity, his success, or the number of his followers. They evaluate them by the standard already established by Scripture. A gospel delivered by an angel that contradicts the gospel of Christ is another gospel. It is to be rejected as false and because the tree only produces rotten fruit.

Despite their historical differences, Rabbinic Judaism and Islam ultimately reveal the same spiritual pattern. Both replace God’s authority with the authority of men. Both replace grace with works. Both divide humanity into the spiritually superior and the despised outsider. Their treatment of the “other” is not incidental—it is the natural consequence of believing that righteousness is earned rather than imputed.

The gospel of Jesus Christ produces the opposite result. Since no man can boast before God, Christians stand before Him solely by grace, clothed in the righteousness of an Other. The believer therefore has no grounds for despising his enemies, but is commanded to love them, pray for them, and call them to the same mercy he himself has received.

The most convincing counterfeits are not those that bear no resemblance to the truth, but those that imitate it closely enough to deceive those who do not know the genuine. Judaism and Islam are such counterfeits, for both obscure the only gospel by which men may be saved.

I was asked the other day why all my views are so “radical.” I stopped and smiled, and after a moment’s thought I said, “I have been radicalized by reality.” What did I mean exactly? I look around at the world and the absolutely stupid things people believe; I have observed and rejected their failures. The catastrophic disasters they have made out of everything they have touched, has radicalized me.

So many people believe so many things that are just so wrong. They have been easily coerced and even brainwashed to believe things that are objectively false by almost any rational measure. But we do not live in rational times.

The unwittingly godless philosophies and worldviews of the programmed breathers lead to the most stupid societal outcomes imaginable and gives power to some of both the dumbest and most evil people among us.

I have looked at the world around me and weighed the outcomes of the dominant belief systems and the absolute failures they have produced. The only conclusion one can draw is that reality is a hard taskmaster for these utopian-minded buffoons. And for those with an ability to think, this reality can only have a radicalizing effect. The thoughtless scream at the mirror and wonder why the world is as it is.

My views aren’t really radical at all. 

The problem with war is that once it starts, no one knows where it will go or how it will end. Death, destruction, and economic hardship are the inevitable outcomes that bombs and tanks leave behind. The history of humanity is the history of war, and it is perhaps the greatest act of evil perpetrated by mankind: that the powerful few can command the slaughter of others who simply want to live in peace. I will make no predictions, but with this latest act of war, the world has changed, and there is no coming back from it.

I have been a vocal supporter of President Trump and the many good things he has done and attempted to do for the U.S. domestically. He has accomplished things that those before him refused to do, and I am able to acknowledge both the good and the bad. One of his great first-term accomplishments was being the first president of my lifetime who did not start a new war, despite the continued efforts of the U.S. war machine to draw him into one. That was one of the major reasons he was elected again after the disastrous Biden presidency, which helped ignite the Russia–Ukraine war in 2022 that has just “celebrated” its fourth anniversary, and is still ongoing. But this is not like cheering for your favourite sports team, where support and loyalty are unwavering regardless of how they perform. We cannot soften or make excuses for evil acts because it’s “our team” at bat.

On February 28th, 2026, all that changed, as Israel and the U.S. launched coordinated military attacks on Iran, even though Iran posed no threat to the U.S. Rabbinic Judaism (AD 70) and Islam (610 AD) are two of the greatest evils functioning in the world today. They are two sides of the same murderous coin, so I have no sympathies for the religious governments of Israel or Iran who view this as an existential and eschatological battle for survival. If you live by the sword, you will die by it. That Trump would allow himself to be drawn into this ancient tribal war by an alleged “ally” (Israel)—a nation that hates and opposes the very foundations of America—is inexcusable by any measure. For whatever good he can be credited with, this unprovoked and gruesome attack on Iran on behalf of Israel will forever tarnish his legacy.

U.S. soldiers are already coming back in body bags (over 200 reported so far at the time of writing, so the actual count is likely much greater). Will those parents be happy they lost their child in a desert war in the Middle East at the behest of foreign powers? Doubtful. But this is the story of America and its war machine. We will be told by paid-for talking heads that this—and the roughly 800 U.S. military bases around the world—are the price of “global peace.” Only the naive believe that. It is what is required to maintain global hegemony and the reserve currency that allows America to live and consume far beyond its means. War is profit, war is lifestyle—but only for those who never have to get their hands dirty or their heads blown off.

Let us not pretend we live in true democracies. That is an illusion. There are powerful forces at work reshaping the world to the detriment of many and the benefit of very few. I do not know how this will end, but it will not end well. War never does. Trump has damaged his legacy by sending his nation into a war that the majority did not want. That is not democracy or representative government. He allowed Israel to draw him into its fight and spill American blood to expand its influence in the region. It is a colossal betrayal of the people he was elected to serve. His posted “war update” tweets—bombastic and verifiably false in many details—will stand as a historical record of the hubris that will define his presidency.

If only we had leaders who saw themselves as servants of the people, whose sole aim was the flourishing of those under their care, and for whom war was only ever a last resort in defence of their nation. If we are to return to that, the West would have to undergo a transformation so severe it would resemble death and rebirth, a painful collapse and rebuild of our institutions, for the forces that have taken hold are too deeply embedded to be easily removed.

We have learned no lessons from WWI or WWII, or so it would seem. So the thought of embarking upon WWIII because “this needs to be done” reflects an arrogance that is difficult to comprehend, yet here we are. I do not know when or how it will end, but if the last few wars are any indication, it will end when those profiting from it are satisfied—or when the number of deaths becomes too great to ignore.

My new photo journal can be found here.

I came across this article a few months ago written by Tedros Geybreyesus of the World Health Organization, on the future hope of the elimination of cancer because of vaccines, specifically cervical cancer. He pointed to the success of the HPV vaccines in Rwanda, Now, knowing of the WHO’s failure during Covid-19 and their complicity in many of the failed Covid policies (lockdowns, masks, social distancing, vaccines, etc) that we all lived through, I thought I’d look to see if this was true. And of course, like most health advice coming from the “professionals” these days, it was a lie.

Now first, it is important to note that 90% of all HPV cases self-resolve or clear up on their own over 1-2 years. Only 10% of cases are left with lasting impacts, and nowhere near all of those lead to cervical cancer, so the risk for cancer is quite low, even if you have contracted HPV.
Tedros said that the HPV vaccine was introduced in Rwanda in 2011 and they have achieved 90% coverage, so one would think cervical cancer cases would have plummeted since any vaccine pushed by the WHO is “highly effective,” as we are continually told. Because vaccines are preventative, and with almost all females inoculated against HPV, you would think cervical cancer over the ensuing 13 years would have disappeared. You would be wrong, however. Here is a graph of cervical cancer cases in Rwanda since 1990. I have also included Canada’s rates of occurrence since they started vaccinating young girls in 2006.

Let’s remember that vaccines are given to people to stop them from contracting the disease, so it would necessarily follow that as vaccination increases, the occurrence of the disease decreases. That is how vaccines have always been sold to us. Up until the gaslighting of the Covid era, everyone knew vaccines prevented the contraction of the disease.

What do we notice when looking at the Rwanda graph? From a peak in 1995, we begin to see a steady decline in cervical cancer cases until about 2010 when it essentially flatlined until today. As Tedros noted, mass vaccination began in 2011 and the rates of occurrence have stayed essentially the same. Cervical cancer cases were already in decline well before vaccination began. So what benefit has the vaccination campaign been to those who received it? Should we not have seen a further plummeting in the remaining rate of cases since these vaccines are “effective”?  They vaccinated millions of women and girls to realize a reduction of 1 case of cervical cancer for every 200,000 women.

Similarly in Canada, we have actually seen a small uptick in cases since the vaccine campaign began in 2006. We went from 6.2 cases per 100,000 to 6.7 cases. Should not all these vaccines reaped phenomenal benefits if they actually worked as promised? Should cases have also plummeted here as would be expected from an effective vaccine?

Who benefitted from these millions of vaccines given for HPV around the world? From the data, we can say with certainty it hasn’t been women and girls. If there is no appreciable upside to a vaccine, why then would we offer it?

If Covid taught us anything, it’s that public health really isn’t about improving the health of the population, but rather, seeing them as commodities to profit from. The Gardasil vaccine made hundreds of millions of dollars for Merck Pharmaceuticals and helped no one from what the data tells us. This is just another instance of the medical experimentation for profit that we’ve witnessed over the last several decades.

We need to question every medical intervention that is foisted upon us by those who stand to profit from them. Every medicine, every vaccine, should be questioned, and I now think, in most cases, should be rejected as useless. Our health must necessarily be our own responsibility now for we can no longer trust the medical authorities, and many of the doctors, to actually care about our well-being. There is a reason why most doctors refer to their profession as “modern medicine,” for they believe writing a prescription is always the answer; a drug or a jab the best solution.

I would go to a doctor for surgery and diagnosis, but I would question their suggested remedy every time and do my own research and ask around. For if one thing has become clearer and clearer over time, It’s that we rely on the Medical Industrial Complex at our own peril, and it is the data itself responsible for anti-vax sentiments growing.

Before my “vanlife” road trip through Utah several months ago, I had written out some goals and things I wanted to accomplish while living “off grid,” so to speak. One of my goals stated, “See every sunrise. Watch every sunset.” When I first wrote it down, in the back of my mind I did so for reasons of photography and capturing that first and last light of day, as well as trying to make the most of the time I had. But over the course of that week the phrases kept running through my head as I thought on them and they came to have a more profound meaning than I originally intended.

I knew I would be awake early each day. My plan was to be in a spot to watch the sunrise and photograph it. Some days I was already hiking but I was in a position to see those first rays light the sky. I thought the same with the evenings as it started getting dark; I was always in a position to see that last light fade into the night. As I repeated this phrase over in my thoughts, they took on new meanings for me.

See Every Sunrise

We know that early morning light has a profound physiological effect on the body. We know that an early morning comports with greater productivity and more life success; both of which come from the required discipline of an early start.

But there’s more to it. When we take a minute to watch the sunrise, we give ourselves the ability to stop and feel gratitude for another day that lies before us. It is cliché to say our most precious commodity is time, and that tomorrow is never promised. But those who are thankful for life and take those moments to appreciate all that we’ve been given, will necessarily live a life of greater meaning and purpose.

Those mornings where the world and house are quiet, really is the best part of the day. One can think and contemplate and prepare for the day ahead and enjoy the serenity and peace during those early moments.

Watch Every Sunset

In the same way, taking a moment to stop and watch as another day ends, and see the beauty of that final golden glow as it falls below the horizon, puts into perspective the beauty of this world and life. It should cause us to pause and be thankful, and fill us with gratitude for the gift we’ve been given.

We should reflect on the victories or failings of the day, learning from both; strengthening our resolve to live with purpose and discipline, and treat time as precious.

When we look around, we see people caught up in the busyness of life. Some will spend their nights in bars drinking their life away, missing the sunset, and too hungover to wake for the sunrise; their life blurred and empty. Others will pursue the banal and mundane, filling their
“empty time” with forgettable movies or entertainment, or wasting away the moments in the worthless pursuit of video game achievements. These are the lives of meaninglessness and despair, and there is no end to the ways in which we can fritter away the days.

I have fallen for some of these in times past; watching stupid shows or scrolling on my phone, producing nothing of worth. I will not allow myself to waste the time l’ve been given, nor pursue the vapid or inane things most people value. I refuse to live as most people live; lives filled with mindless idleness and aimless folly.

I will never view a sunrise or sunset the same way again. They are markers of life that many miss. They mark our fleeting days, one after another, and if you notice them, they encourage us to stop but for a moment, to be grateful for life. No man knows the number of his days, but he should live to make the best of each one. No one will ever looking back and lament that they should have spent more time in bars drinking, or scrolling on their phone, or watching television. Every deathbed is full of regrets, and we should live now so as to minimize them when the time comes.

The alarm went off at 4:00am. I ran a tight ship on this road trip and we needed to be in the car by 4:10am to get a decent spot for our tripods at Mesa Arch at least an hour before sunrise, which was slated for 5:56am this morning. There were a few groans from both of us but we grabbed our gear and were off.

We pulled out of our hotel at 4:11am. We were about the 7th and 8th person to arrive at Mesa Arch after a 45 minute drive from Moab into Canyonlands National Park. We set up our tripods, played with our camera settings, talked to some of the other crazies who came for this one epic shot, and waited. 

When you stop, and wait, and watch for the sun to rise; the inspiring signal of a new day, you get a sense of renewal and wonder and hope. Every single day is a gift. Every single day should fill us with joy and gratitude for the privilege we have to observe the created order all around us. In a world that chases after the mundane, stupefies itself with social media, and dulls itself with drink or drug, few are those who truly get to see the world as it was meant to be seen: as the canvas of the Master Painter, not the product of random chance and blind atoms.

As the sun rises above the horizon and lights up the underside of Mesa Arch, cameras clicked, and voices grew louder at the wonder before us. Every single person present ooh’d and ahh’d as light filled the sky. 

Despite the morning rush and half opened eyes, the best part of this brief moment was that I got to share it with my dad, doing something we both loved. It will be a sunrise moment I will always remember, not just for the glorious light that broke through the darkness that morning, but for who I got to share it with.

I have now been maintaining this blog for about 8 years, with a minimum of one post a month. I write for myself because I enjoy it, nothing more. I have a tiny readership as the blog stats bear out. For me, this is an avenue to think and articulate issues that I am concerned about. 

I have been criticized at times for being too ascerbic, too opinionated, too unwavering, in my views. I make no apologies for any of those. I write unfiltered to convey as close to what I think as possible. In a weak, feminized world, I see why this would bother some people. Others consistently agree. You can’t please everybody I suppose, and ultimately I write only to please myself and reflect the transcendental nature of truth.

The other day I asked ChatGPT a question. “Can you summarize the worldview of the author of dbro.ca?” I asked this question twice and got substantially the same answer but appreciated the different nuances of both. Within 15 seconds I had the following responses:

1) The author of this site expresses a worldview characterized by a commitment to traditional values, personal responsibility, and a critical stance toward modern societal trends. Key aspects of this perspective include:

• Sobriety and Personal Discipline: The author advocates for complete abstinence from alcohol, viewing it as detrimental to mental and physical health, and believes that society should discourage drinking through social pressure.

• Critique of Modern Society: There’s a concern about societal decline, with observations about increased violence, loss of community, and cultural shifts that the author perceives as negative. This includes apprehension about immigration policies and the erosion of traditional cultural norms.

• Emphasis on Objective Truth and Traditional Morality: The author stresses the importance of objective truth and traditional moral values, criticizing what is seen as the glorification of perversion and the rejection of the good, the beautiful, and the true in contemporary culture.

• Skepticism Toward Progressive Movements: There’s a critical view of progressive ideologies, particularly those related to gender and sexuality, with the belief that such movements are harmful and indicative of societal decay.

• Value of Nature and Simplicity: The author finds true beauty and rejuvenation in nature, suggesting that urban environments are soul-crushing and advocating for a return to simpler, more natural living.

Overall, the author’s worldview is rooted in a desire to return to what is perceived as more authentic and time-tested ways of living, emphasizing personal accountability, traditional values, and a cautious approach to modern societal changes.

2) The author of this site presents a worldview deeply rooted in traditional Christian values, expressing strong critiques of modern Western society. His writings reflect a belief that contemporary culture has deviated from foundational truths, leading to moral and societal decline.​

Core Beliefs and Themes:

• Christian Foundations: He emphasizes Christianity as the bedrock of Western civilization, attributing concepts like human rights and equality to its influence. He warns that abandoning these principles results in societal decay.​

• Moral Absolutism: The author upholds objective truth and moral clarity, criticizing relativism and the acceptance of behaviors he deems immoral, such as abortion and the celebration of certain lifestyles.

• Critique of Modern Movements: He is critical of progressive ideologies, viewing them as destructive forces that undermine societal structures and values. He expresses concern over issues like the sexualization of children and the erosion of traditional family roles.​

• Personal Responsibility: The writings stress the importance of individual choices, discipline, and accountability, suggesting that many societal issues stem from personal failings and a lack of self-control.​

• Cultural Observations: He laments the loss of beauty, truth, and goodness in art and architecture, and criticizes the prevalence of what he sees as superficiality and narcissism in modern culture.​

• Political Commentary: The author expresses dissatisfaction with current political leadership, particularly in Canada, and praises figures like Donald Trump for actions he believes restore order and sanity.​

Overall, the author’s perspective is one of concern for the direction of modern society, advocating for a return to traditional values and a reaffirmation of Christian principles as a remedy for contemporary issues.​

I could not have written a more accurate summary of my writing.
