Funny. You’re the best headline writer of all time.
Have a great week!
The “Now I become” construct of this quote possibly paraphrases the original. There are many English translations of the Gita; many of them have Krishna describe himself as Time rather than as Death.
Oppenheimer’s paraphrasing — and delivery in the 1960s TV interview — is masterful; dramatic and poignant. However, look at the entirety of the verse and the one the follows it. Perhaps Oppenheimer had more in mind than we think: perhaps he was on a mission from God.
From my copy of the Gita, Chapter 11 Verse 32 – 33
[Krishna says -]
32 I am time, the destroyer of all; I have come to
consume the world. Even without your particapation,
all the warriors gathered here will die.
33 Therefore arise, Arjuna; conquer your enemies and
enjoy the glory of sovereignty. I have already slain
all these warriors; you will only be my instrument.
Easwaran, Eknath (2007) The Bhagavard Gita. Nilgiri Press, 198-199
Here’s a quote from another religion that was written 2,000 years ago that applies to today’s debates on Woke and climate-change ideaology :
” Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth”. Galations 4:16
I believe Churchill said “The first victim of war is the truth “.
““Now I am become tips, the destroyer of words”.
The destroyer of words? You mean… Biden?

McCaskill on Hunter Biden Case: Republicans Are Trying To “Indict A Father For Loving His Son”
This is a heart wrenching video. Former Senator Claire McCaskill (R-MO) spoke with MSNBC about Republicans wanting to indict The Most Popular President in US History for the simple act of loving his unaborted son.
Pat “unaborted son”. That was a nice touch. Not everyone knew that about Hunter. Glad you cleared that up. There is one kid Biden doesn’t love. I think Biden must have aborted that relationship.
The Secret Service has declared they have no idea who brought cocaine (a Russian?) into the White House. It is time to move on from this ridiculous Qanon conspiracy theory that it was Hunter Biden’s cocaine.
It is time for more important news….like this:
“Donald Trump’s nightmare golf shank caught on camera, and it’s embarrassing”
Great investigative journalism by Alia Shoaib.
This proves that dRumpf is a loser. Prime Minster Trudeau would never shank a golf ball and would destroy dRumpf in a game of golf!
Trudeau shanks other things
They left out the part where he got a hole in one while golfing with Ernie Els.
Elon Musk had Tesla overstate its battery range. Tesla then canceled related service appointments.
“So many Tesla owners attempted to schedule service appointments for their vehicle due to this perceived issue that the company set up a “Diversion Team.” Employees on this team were tasked with canceling as many of these driving range related service appointments as possible. “
Endlessly repeating that doesn’t make you much better. Matter of fact, you sound a little insecure.
With that logic, there’s quite a lot of insecure people these days. Myself included.
OTOH, there’s plenty to be insecure about, when you see what’s happening around you.
Pi** off and accept reality, canadians are stupid.
At least one of them certainly is. Of course, it could be me.
Not to worry. The link above states that Global Affairs Canada has asked the HKPF “not to act as police while in Canada”.
