Heathen Holiday

_____________________________________________________
Date Line December 22, 2007

Ho Ho Ho and a Merry Xmas

Did you know that a recent study by the Pew Research Center has established that seventy (70%) percent of evangelicals believe all life is immutable – that it is unchanged since the creation?

Seventy (70%) percent of Evangelicals are Creationists who deny the reality of evolution. That means seventy percent of evangelicals have the belief that a deity creates disease specifically to attack those who first contract it – and then allows the disease to continue to infect, and often kill, at random.

Thus, at least, seventy percent of Evangelicals believe that, because it is the work of the Creator, we should not fight disease. Or is it that they believe that it is the work of a subordinate deity? Someone who answers to, and derives their orders from, the Creator of all life?

Therefore, it must follow that seventy percent of Evangelicals believe doctors oppose the work of the creator – attempt to interfere with some divine plan for the irradiation of some aspect of humanity.

At the same time, the same seventy percent of Evangelicals – and Christians in general – believe that they should follow the words of Jesus, who they call the Christ. He said top care for the sick. He said to oppose the ‘demons’ who inflict illness, to care for the sick, and the orphans, and the widows, and the children, and the even the prisoners.

In terms of the beliefs of seventy percent of Evangelicals, Jesus was opposed to the Creator’s plan.

You know this guy Jesus. You hear about him often enough. That’s the guy who was born when the shepherds were in the fields – that’s in the spring, April or May – and whose birthday they celebrate at the time of the winter solstice; or more accurately on the holiday devoted to a pagan deity of the ancient Romans and Greeks.

Obviously, if the one they worship is the one who was that pagan deity, it follows that he would be opposed to the actions of the Creator – or, as we know from the Book of Job – actions which the creator must personally must authorize his “sons” (the ones who do not understand faith for its own sake) to engage in.

Of course, seventy percent of Evangelicals also believe that Jesus is a manifestation of an indestructible deity who was destroyed (killed) and resurrected – hence was never killed, because he is indestructible and eternal. In short they promote contradiction after contradiction – all of which are programmed to deny the evidence of our own eyes and the actual methods chosen by whatever entity, or force, was the origin of that first particle of matter, or that first burst of energy.

HOLD IT! Did that just say there is a Creator?

Well gee wiz ... until someone can explain how something can emerge from nothing, there must, by definition, be a source – and that source must exist without ever having itself been created. Hum? Another logical inconsistency; yet one which is a logical imperative that escapes the limited minds of those who proclaim themselves to be Atheists; and thus proclaim that something came from nothing.

Of course, we can hold that the universe is the eternal, and eternally in flux, ever changing and so we are but a transient experiment – our lives having meaning within the progression and yet remain totally meaningless in the broad reality of that universal flux.

But hey – this is a time when reindeer fly, jolly little elves – who are oversized, white bearded and chronically obese – give away presents to good little boys and girls. How does this elf know who is good or bad? He spies on them throughout the year – absolutely no privacy for child or adult ... for the elf is always watching.

And he is a magic elf, one who can come down chimneys – even in homes, or apartments, which have no chimney or fireplace. He can slip, unnoticed, past whatever security system to do whatever he wishes. Xmas is a time to be grateful – grateful that this elf has yet to turn to murder, rape, or terrorism. For if he did, it is obvious, he would be unstoppable.

That though as real, or believable, as any that could possibly come from the mind of an Evangelical should be taken to heart as they proclaim their absolute faith in scripture. They proclaim the need to literally follow the dictates – yet evade responsibility for as many of the 613 biblical laws as they can.

They claim the literal nature of scripture, and celebrate their supposed savior by moving his birthday to a pagan holiday and, in ignoring words such as those of Jeremiah 10:2
“Thus sayth the Lord, learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.”

Of course, one must also read verses 10:3-5 to find that the ways of heathen include the cutting down of a tree, and fixing it with nails (or other means) so it will stand erect that it might be decorated with costly ornaments – decked out, like the Halls of the popular song – with silver and gold; to which are now added glass, plastic and all manner of heathen design.

As Biblically defined Heathens violate the word of the Lord, but enjoy the light of their trees ...

Diocese of San Joaquin - Openly Preaches Hatred

_____________________________________________________
Date Line December 9, 2007

It is always a pleasure to see Christians boast that they cannot read the scriptures. This appears to be the case here.

As I presented to the Rabbinical Council, when they met to discuss this issue in Philadelphia: There is nothing in the Judaic Bible which prohibits homosexuality. Where there, there would be – as on so many other subjects – reference to women with women. As those who follow such things know, the Council agreed with me.

In fact there is only one law even close to the subject – it expressly prohibits a man being with a man as he would be with a woman. As men have no vagina (which the Episcopal Diocese seems unaware of) this law pertains to bisexual activity while – by inference – affirming the propriety and authorizes anal and oral sex between a man and woman. Basically, in the strictest terms, it only applies to bi-sexuality. Again, there is nothing pertaining to homosexuality.

Granted, The New Testament Paul – who denounces the rock (Peter) upon whom the Church was to be built – does denounce homosexuality. However, if one were to use someone who never met Christ as an authority over one who was designated by Christ to be the foundation of Christ’s Church, then most Christians have little possibility of salvation. Paul explicitly declares that only Greeks and Jews are assured salvation – so these guys are screwed anyway.

The clergy of hate and societal disruption are alive and well. Those who hate, those who preach the most harm to the most people, will be cheering the news that the conservative Diocese of San Joaquin voted Saturday to split from the liberal-leaning Episcopal Church; thus it has become the first full diocese to secede from the denomination in the debate over the Bible and homosexuality.

Of course, the reality of the issue is their play to steal multiple millions of dollars worth of real estate from the Episcopal Church. There is no morality involved here – just the greed of those who practice The Most Harm to the Most People Doctrine.

Those who wave the Bible as a justification for their satanic practices can be very proud – and doubtless the Diocese of San Joaquin will attract many who support the murder of others and the denial of all that Christ advocated. ENJOY. Clearly, the best thing that can happen to these people is to discover that there really is a God – and that the Biblical Law of the Old Testament is the law that he approves.

Of course, it would be great if this was revealed to them as they chow down on their pork suppers.

When will these idiots learn the meaning of “Wisdom Knowledge and Understanding” be a part of the spirit of God – without which they are doomed to whatever purgatory they proclaim through their belief that they deserve for violating the laws the hypocritically profess to support.

OH RIGHT! Paul also said that the Law did not matter – that the path was through faith and the simple acceptance of Christ’s existence. So any of the Diocese of San Joaquin who dare to use Biblical justification for their prejudice, hatred and inhumanity had better be careful. St Paul also said that, to accept any part of the Law (which he cited as the Circumcision) required adherence to ALL of the Law – all 613 laws; most of which members of the Diocese of San Joaquin violate on a daily basis.

Ah yes ... the beauty of the end-of-times ... the time when the archaic religions are to be set aside and a more enlightened faith will come forward from the acquisition of that spirit, that “Wisdom Knowledge and Understanding” so lacking in those who advocate, or adhere to, The Most Harm to the Most People Doctrine.
