Ape or Angel? Man or Mouse?

(Mr. Collins forgot something - God's Will! A man might choose to do God's Will.)

"FREE WILL is the theory that human beings have he power to make their own choices about what they will do. It implies that a person [MAN] is able to decide for himself which of several courses of action he will follow. The theory opposite to free will is determinism. Many kinds of derminism exist, but determinists believe that people [ANIMALS] do not really make choices. There are two ways of looking at free will. One view is that all human actions are free because they come spontaneously from within. Midway between this theory and determinism is the position that in some actions people are determined, and in some they are free. People have free will when they can deliberate and choose between alternate plans." - James Collins

The image is of an adorable little angel by M.S. Hurford from the vintage "People and Progress", Cathedral Basic Reader Series, 1950.

The Good, the True, the Beautiful

"Blonde Jesus", so this image I found on the web is labeled. But, the hair color looks reddish, not blonde! Strange, because red hair is usually associated with Judas, and so with traitors. Also, red hair is associated with clowns. Blond and brown hair are usually associated with Jesus. Just as Orientals and Africans may prefer an image of Jesus which looks like an attractive Oriental or African man, with black hair, so Europeans may prefer an image of Jesus that looks like an attractive European man, with blond or light brown hair. This gingery fellow is a rather strange looking Aryan Jesus, I wonder who painted it?

Movie Review - Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

The first time I saw this movie, I didn't enjoy it very much. Later that night I began to think Ben Stein and pals had made this movie as an example of how NOT to make a documentary. Bad, bad, bad: Star a repellant and untrustworthy host that comes from the other side of the issue. Rush through the cases of disgruntled former employees and tell only one side of the story. Never clearly define the subject. Stop everything to go visit a Holocaust Museum. Later, when somebody mentions the Holocaust, have the host make a big hokey gesture of grief. Give the scientists on the opposite side the first and last words. Make sure the best speaker is on the opposition, and that he has a beautiful, educated English accent. Let him mock your side. Have some hokey shots of the host making an overwrought speech to a bunch of "cool" students that don't look the type to be interested in thistopic. Bring in a film of a Ronald Reagan speech here. What else? Oh, yeah, the whole time, cut back and forth a lot from your modern day story to scary Nazi and Communist era footage.

That is what I thought. Then, I went to see the movie again. I enjoyed it the second time. Now I could almost follow the stories, now I caught the definition of "intelligent design"... well, at least somebody did recite it, once.
Nobody seemed quite as repulsive as they had the first time around, and nothing seemed so very weird as it had the first time around. So, I don't know what to make of this film.

I will say that Ben Stein is openly Christophobic (my new word!) and that when he scratches his back during a class at the Bible College, he is trying to take control of the situation and also implying that he is catching fleas from the Christians! This is not very nice, and you can image the reaction he would have gotten had he done this in a classroom with Black Christians or Native American Christians or anybody other than White Christians.

Furthermore, I think having Ben Stein host this movie was a bad idea, because he takes up a host spot that could have gone to an Intelligent Design believer. That person could have got publicity and a chance at a developing a national following. Having Ben Stein host the movie is insulting, as if he is doing the thinking and talking for the Intelligent Design side, and you know darn well he doesn't believe in it.

Why was this movie made? I don't know. I don't know if Intelligent Design will get any boost from it. But, if they were interested in more freedom and breaking taboos, they could have found some more exciting taboos to try to break. Say, the taboo about racial differences. They could have gone to Tennessee and talked to James Hart about Darwin's Most Favored Races theory!!! Or, while over in Europe, they could have gone to visit some of the scientists and other researchers that have been put in jail, fined, beat up, had their books burned, etc. for saying they don't believe this or that about the Holocaust. (Maybe they don't believe those buildings at Auschwitz were even gas chambers. Maybe they don't believe anywhere near six million Jews were killed.) I would have liked to see Ben Stein visit Ernest Zundel and Mr. Death and James Hart, and that would have been more appropriate to go along with the Nazi and Commie footage.

Expelled is okay, but Mr. Death is a much more memorable movie about this same problem of what can happen to your career if you ask the wrong questions and offend the wrong people.

Christian Moral Codes and Virtues

Christian theologians have based many of their ethical concepts on the philosophy of St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas. Augustine focused on the relation between man and a personal God as the heart of the moral as well as the religious life. He integrated morality with the Christian love of God and neighbor. Aquinas related the Greek views mentioned by Aristotle to the Christian virtues of faith, hope, and charity. He also located the norm for ethical judgment in reason, both as the lawgiving reason of God and as human reason reflecting upon the needs of man's nature. - World Book Encyclopedia, 1968.

"Yearning for Zion Cult"

Christians believe that Jesus of Nazareth was God. Mormons do not believe that Jesus of Nazareth was God. They do not believe that God was born on Christmas Day. They believe that the "Son of God" was born on Christmas Day. That is why Mormons, of any sort, are a cult.

The Mormons are not Christians, but they are Zionists. They have been Zionists since the days of their founder. It is typical that the media presents the "Yearning for Zion" Cult as a Christian group and not as a Zionist group. Also, they present the Mormons not as a "true" Mormon group. The truth can't set you free if you don't know the truth.

Polygamy is not a part of Western Tradition. In Western Civilization marriage can only be between a man and a woman. A man with two or more wives is as abnormal to Western Civilization as two women married to each other is. That's why both these things are against the law here. Western Civilization is going, going, gone when the American people sitting in front of their TVs and munching away don't know right from wrong and they wonder why we have morality laws, anyway.

Just as homosexuality has been normalized by "the elite rulers" in media, education, government and corporate America, so will pedophilia be normalized by the same parties. The main idea is to get rid of Western Civilization and replace it with a mass of unthinking dummies with no morals, whatsoever.

The Yearning for Zion Cult has gotten heavy TV coverage, and the "with it" sort of viewing public believe that maybe polygamy is okay and maybe grown men having sex with thirteen year olds is okay. This is what the power elite wants the next generation to think, because two more pillars of Western Civilization will be chopped down when everyone agrees that none of this fuss over "underage girls" and polygamy makes any difference, anyway. The laws will be changed. Everyone will say, who cares? What difference does it make? The old taboos will be laughed at. In this way the people are herded to a non-Western, non-Christian way of life.

It's the Zionists!

Jimmy Carter explains the highly effective brainwashing process of the cult that has replaced Christianity since World War II.

“A lot of support for Israel comes from Christians like me who have been taught since they were 3 years old to honor and protect God’s chosen people from whom came people like our Christian Savior, Jesus Christ.” - Jimmy Carter

The Jews are NOT God's chosen people in Christianity. The Israelites WERE God's chosen people, but by rejecting Jesus Christ, they lost their position. Since Good Friday, the Year One, Christians have been God's chosen people. That is real Christianity. Accept no substitute!

"The Jews" do not believe that Jesus was God. "The Jews" persecuted the Christians for 400 years. Everyone should know this. "Protecting the Jews" has absolutely nothing to do with Jesus Christ or with Christianity. Christians don't need to "protect Jews" any more or any less than they need to protect the Chinese.

Nazis opposed Christian teaching and morality

"...The Religious Question. The fight of the State against freedom of religion was continued successfully. The opposition of the Catholic Church was countered by public trials again during the early summer when several members of religious orders were convicted of smuggling money from the country and charges of immorality were brought against others. After three months of agitation against the Church the prosecutions were stopped. Negotiations between the high clergy and the Government followed, and the high Catholic clergy were found at the end of the year somewhat more accomodating to the Government than before. The clergy stressed the common fight of National Socialism and the Catholic Church against Communism. The Protestant Church has fallen, during the year, more and more under Government control and the spirit of protest voiced in previous years by the Confessional Church and other groups died down, at least as far as any open protests were concerned. In December Chancellor Hitler asked the National Socialist leaders to cease attacks on Christianity, but the new world outlook, as propagated by Alfred Rosenberg, by Baldur von Schirach and by the Schutzstaffel, the famous black-coated S.S. organization, with its sharp opposition to Christian teaching and morality, made great headway, especially among German youth.

Nazi Control of Education. The education of German youth was brought completely under the control of the National Socialist Party....a special school system has been created under the sole control of the Nationalist Socialist Party, in which the future leaders of Germany will be trained... " Hans Kohn, Professor of History, Smith College in the article "Germany;" The National Encyclopedia, Revision Service 1936, p. 43.

So Are You

My father fought against Hitler in World War II. The picture is of a book he brought back from the war, Hitler's Mein Kampf, or "The Hitler Bible" as it is called today. I do not know who tore the picture of Hitler up, or who taped it back together again.

Some people say Hitler wanted to tear up Christianity and replace it with something else. If this is true, Hitler got his wish. Christianity has been torn to pieces, and replaced by nature worship, devil worship, oriental cults, shamanism, wicca, atheism, communism, Scientology, Kabbala, and many other stupid things.

My father was a good Catholic and did not believe in abortion. When "abortion rights" came to the USA, Christianity was gone. Aborting a child is not at all different from sacrificing a child to Moloch in ancient Carthage. The women of Carthage cried when their children were sacrificed by the high priests. They had more decent human feelings than Hillary Clinton, Obama Barack, or John McCain have today. Why do we care what Hitler did to other people many years ago when we do the same to our own children all across America every day of the week? Nobody can answer this.

Babies are God's gift and each one is a miracle. To abort a child is Satanic, and anyone who says differently is lying.

The Golden Rule

"...There are two versions of the golden rule, positive and negative. Jesus Christ taught the positive version in the Sermon on the Mount. In Matthew 7:12, he said, "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them." A similar version of Jesus' statement appears in Luke 6:31.

The golden rule in the negative form states that people should not treat others the way they do not want to be treated themselves. Several ancient Greeks and Jewish thinkers taught the negative form. The Chinese philosopher Confucius taught both the positive and the negative versions of the golden rule... " - -William A. Clebsch

How Will You Know Him?

O Sweet Jesus, make our Heaven like unto Thy Heart.

ATONEMENT, in Christian theology, the expiation of sin and the propitation of God by the incarnation, life, sufferings, and death of Christ; the obedience and death of Christ in behalf of sinners as the ground of redemption; in the narrow sense, the sacrificial work of Christ for sinners...

Bela Lugosi as Jesus Christ

Here are some startling photos of Hungarian actor Bela Lugosi costumed as Jesus Christ. Lugosi played Jesus in a Passion Play in 1909. Bela looks partially Aryan and partially Jewish in these photos. Lugosi probably had at least one or two Jewish grandparents, since he was a Hollywood actor, but he was raised Roman Catholic and is buried in Holy Cross cemetery. People who have seen the photos agree Lugosi looks very much like the iconic image of Jesus.

The War Is Over

Holidays of the New World Order are the same as holidays of the pre-Christian era - days to get drunk and/or have orgiastic sex. Christ and the Holy Cross are never welcome in this multicultural funhouse. Reverence is unknown except for the Endless War Memorials.

This article by Jame Fulford at Vdare.com notes the sad passing of Easter as an American holiday.

http://www.vdare.com/fulford/080322_fulford_file.htm

I learned a new word from this article... "Christophobic". Fox News is Christophobic, even on Easter weekend. The George Bush Administration is Christophobic. Even many "Christian" churches are Christophobic! Since 1966 our country has gone downhill, and the Christophobes have become evil tyrants blighting the land.

The same families that celebrated Easter in 1968 gathered last weekend, but now they were Hindus, vegetarians and homosexuals. It wasn't the same.

'Do you believe this?'

Jesus said: "I am the resurrection. Anyone who believes in me, even though that person dies, will live, and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.

Pictured: an aristocratic Jesus with dark hair and light skin.

The Glorious Resurrection

The wonderful thing about the Christian religion is JESUS.

HAPPY EASTER!

I beseech Thee, by Thy resurrection, make me rise glorious with Thee at the last day, to be always united with Thee in heaven, to praise Thee and love Thee forever.

Pictured: a manly, bronzed Jesus with light brown hair.

SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

Soul of Christ, sanctify me!

Body of Christ, save me!

Blood of Christ, inebriate me!

Water from the side of Christ, wash me!

Passion of Christ, strengthen me!

O good Jesus, hear me!

Within your wounds, hide me!

Permit me not to be separated from you!

From the malignant enemy defend me!

In the hour of my death call me,

And bid me come to You,

That with Your saints I may praise You.

Forever and ever! Amen!

Jesus is Unjustly Condemned to Death

Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, and he threw the money changers out of the temple, saying "My Father's house should be a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves." Judas betrayed Jesus to the leaders of the Jews. The Jews arrested Jesus and unjustly condemned Jesus to death. Then the Jews took Jesus before Pilate.

This picture shows Peter denying Jesus, as Jesus had predicted that Peter would.

Every wound your Son has borne,

Holy Mother, in our heart

Let us feel, and let us mourn,

That in it we had a part!

+++

We adore You, Oh Christ, and we praise You
Because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.

Easter rites

Today is Spy Wednesday, the day Judas went to the Sanhedrin and betrayed Jesus.

It is a sad fact that when you do a Google search for "Easter" nothing much comes up but silliness or negativity. The first religious type article I found was this one about ancient Christian ceremonies held at a pagan temple. As you can see, they have the Resurrection on Saturday morning. They have a fiesta through the night celebrating a Resurrection that hasn't happened yet.

"Highlights All ceremonies are held at the Yaqui Temple and ceremonial grounds, off Avenida del Yaqui (South Priest Drive), six blocks south of Baseline Road. Times are approximate. Open to the public. Sketching, photographing or any other method of recording is prohibited. Parking is available at marked lots on surrounding streets. No alcohol is allowed. Holy Thursday Noon - Garden of Gethsemane; a small statue of Jesus is taken to a garden of olives constructed in the plaza. 3 p.m. - Pursuit of the Old Man, an imaginative drama of the Yaquis. 6 p.m. - Capture of Jesus and procession. Good Friday Noon - Procession; taking Jesus to be crucified. 5 p.m. - Preparing the tomb of Jesus. 6 p.m. - Crucifixion of Jesus. Holy Saturday 1 a.m. - Procession, Fariseos (infantry) mark Jesus' death. 4 a.m. - Resurrection of Jesus. 10 a.m. - Procession of Judas. Noon-1 p.m. - The Gloria; Fariseos march to assault the temple but are defeated and turned back. Flowered costumes and dancing. 2 p.m. - Burning of Judas. After 3 p.m. - Matachines' (festival dancers) fiesta through the night celebrating the Resurrection. The Deer Dancer (dancer wearing deer headdress) and Pascolas (old men) join. Easter Sunday 8 a.m. - Maypole dance. 11 a.m. - The Alleluia; rituals and dances. Noon - Farewell circle; participants gather to hear review of ceremony from leaders."

Saint John's Church, Richmond, is where Patrick Henry declared in 1775, "Give me liberty or give me death!"

The Latin cross on top of steeple is the sign of Jesus Christ and the Christian religion. Many times published photos of churches have the crosses on top cropped out of the picture. What a terrible thing to do! The cross is a most beautiful symbol with a proud and ancient history.

"They pierced My hands and My feet, and they have numbered all My bones."

The Blessing Before Meals

+ Bless us, O Lord! and these they gifts, which we are about to receive from thy bounty, through Christ our Lord. Amen

"There Will Be Blood" movie

Some people say "There Will Be Blood" has no meaning, but I think it does.
Here is my key to the meaning of the film.

California...The Middle East
Daniel Plainview...The State of Israel
H.W. Plainview...The Jewish People
Mary Sunday...The Christian People
Eli Sunday...The U.S.A.
Abel Sunday and the religious cult...The Arab/Muslim People.

Perhaps the title comes from the common expression "There will be no peace in the Middle East until...."

MY BREASTPLATE

Christ be with me, Christ within me,

Christ behind me, Christ before me,

Christ beside me, Christ to win me

Christ to comfort and restore me,

Christ beneath me, Christ above me,

Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,

Christ in hearts of all that love me,

Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.

St. Patrick

Pictured: a dignified Jesus with light skin but very dark, slightly "ethnic" hair.

This is a photograph of the nuptial crown that was worn by Empress Alexandra at her wedding to Nicholas II in 1894. It is made of silver, diamonds and velvet. Before Alexandra was wed she was called Princess Alix of Hesse. She was German on her father's side and English on her mother's side. Her mother was Princess Alice, the daughter of Queen Victoria. The Princess had received her education in England.

The Czar and his wife and children were assassinated by the Communists on the night of July 16, 1918.

It wasn't easy

Missions and Missionaries. The Christian Church has always depended on missions and missionaries for growth. The disciples of Jesus were the first Christian missionaries. Paul was sent to tell the Gentiles about Christianity. His work, and the work of others like him, brought the entire Roman Empire under Christian rule by the middle of the fourth century.
For the next thousand years, the Church sent missionaries to the barbarians of Northern and Eastern Europe who knew nothing of Jesus. Ufilas, an Arian bishop, brought Christianity to the Goths. St. Patrick was sent to Ireland, St. Columba carried the gospel to Scotland, and St. Augustine became England's first Archbishop of Canterbury. In Germany the brave Boniface cut down a sacred oak because it had long been a place of sacrifice to the god Thor. Ansgar was missionary to the Scandinavians, and Vladimir was a Christian leader among the Russian tribes.
As late as the 1200's, human sacrifices were still offered among Slavic tribes. [If there are dead bodies left over after your religious ceremony, your religion is satanic!] The people of Lapland and other far northern regions did not learn of Christian benefits until after the Protestant Reformation of the 1500's. But Christianity had reached China before the seventh century..." - From an old Encyclopedia

Add the Element of Love!

"Christianity would not have become the successful, creative and all-inclusive synthesis it finally became if it had not found a satisfactory role for the feminine impulse to play. Christianity, first of all, inspired love, a new departure in psychological disposition in that this love was ostensibly divorced from sex... The Savior God loves his worshippers, who in turn are admonished to love one another. This new love was no longer an urbane benevolence such as characterized the best among the Greek philosophies and religions; it was a feeling of overpowering strength, with all the Judaic will behind it - but an outgoing, generous will to be concerned with mankind at large...

To this new feeling of ardent love was added an original element: unlike Adonis, Attis, Osiris, and countless others, Christ was not a mythical figure, acknowledged as such. He was a real man of flesh and blood; His Crucifixion was not a ritual reenacted year after year, but a "once for all time" historical and unrepeatable event. The grand cyclical theme of the yearly Redeemership was acknowledged, taken over, and incorporated into linear history as a unique event, never to be repeated. In other words, Christianity brought down from the plane of acknowledged mythology the great drama of death and rebirth and introduced it as a historical event - Attis was an artificial effigy fastened to a tree; Christ was a real, bleeding human being nailed to an actual wooden cross.

Very much like passing from the dreamlike state to the state of wakeful being, Christianity set forth a new mystery: the Incarnation of the Son of God...

...At the end of the fourth century, the last taurobolia took place in the Phrygianum in Rome on the very same spot where the Vatican basilica of Saint Peter stands today." - Amaury de Reincourt, Sex and Power in History, 1974.

The Historical Jesus

Did Jesus Christ have a human father? No; he "was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary" (Apostle's Creed).

"And the angel answered and said to her, 'The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee; and therefore the holy one to be born shall be called the Son of God." (Luke, 1,35).

St. Joseph was only the foster father or guardian of Jesus Christ. He and Mary always lived as brother and sister.

Is Jesus Christ truly a man? Yes, because he has a body and soul like ours.

"The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us. And we saw his glory - glory as of the only-begotten of the Father - full of grace and of truth" (John 1, 14).

Pictured: a communist (boo!) inspired Holy Card showing Jesus and his father Joseph with light skin and brown hair. This is a deliberately confusing image, with Joseph looking like "Jesus". By the fifties, Communists had infiltrated the Roman Catholic Church with intent to destroy, which they did.

Life Is Short

In Adam's fall, we sinned all.

When Adam's sin shut the gate of heaven,

God sent His only Son to open it for us.

God, Our Savior, died on the cross to save us from sin.

Life is Short, Death is Certain, Christ the Cure.
