"Religion has it's prehistoric
origin's in man's
desire to discern some purposeful agency
in the workings of nature." - Niall
Ferguson
"Religion essentially agrees with the orthodox
scientific view that the universe operates according to mechanical principles,
except for certain special circumstances in which a being external to matter,
called God, interferes in the universe's deterministic laws in occurrences
called miracles.
By separating God out from the universe and consigning
Him to the role of clockmaker and occasional miracle-producer, the Church's
response to science abetted its despiritualization of life, as should be
expected given that both institutions spring from the same fundamental cultural
forces.
In both the scientific and the religious view, the human being
is essentially alone: in the former case because there is no God at all, and in
the latter because God has been separated out from the material world in which
we live." - Charles
Eisenstein
"Wherever there stands the implication that man can
do something which directly and automatically guarantees that
God will perform a desired action in response, there is "religion". Thus, when a man makes a
wax doll, pokes it full of pins, mutters incantations, and
believes that God is thus
put under obligation to punish his enemy,
this is a "religious" act. But
likewise, when a specially endowed holy man utters a formula over bread and
wine and believes that God
thereby changes them into divine substance which ineluctably has an ameliorative
effect on those who partake, this is a "religious" act." - Vernard Eller
"A meeting of five faiths to reconcile their
differences points up the propensity of
religious groups to ignore inhuman
behavior in the name of religion
and pontificate on the goodness of
God. Their communique stated, "A blessing to all
creation, religion is a constant reminder to
humanity of the
divine spark in every person."
The statement goes on to decry how "horrific
acts" are justified in the name of religion. When haven't horrible acts
been justified in the name of religion? Since the
beginning of recorded time, evidence shows
that religions have always
performed horrible acts in the name of religion.
Human sacrifices,
animal sacrifices,
wars, pillaging and
ethnic cleansing are mostly events
related to religious differences.
Religion have always been a way
for wily, hypocritical leaders using
superstition to intimidate people and
extort riches from them." - Wallace Danielson
"Imagine that we are
sitting here talking of religions and that the maid Masha hears our
conversation. She, of course, understands it in her own way and she repeats
what she has understood to the porter Ivan. The porter Ivan again understands
it in his own way and he repeats what he has understood to the coachman Peter
next door. The coachman Peter goes to the country and recounts in the village
what the gentry talk about in town.
Do you think that what he recounts will at all resemble what
we said?
This is precisely the relation
between existing religions and that which was
their basis. You get teachings,
traditions, prayers, rites, not at fifth but at twenty-fifth hand, and, of
course, almost everything has been distorted beyond recognition and everything
essential forgotten long ago." - Georges Ivanovitch
Gurdjieff
The
conceptualization of God is genetically hardwired into
the human brain.
"Mystical
states of unitive experience - oneness with the cosmos or with
God - correspond to measurable activity in certain parts of the brain."
- Charles
Eisenstein
Understanding that there is
something greater than one's self, the Creator and Sustainer, helps an individual to see
the actual insignificance of
attempting to control things beyond one's sphere of control.
Institutionalized
religion evolves over time into no more than a
social control mechanism concerned with the
traditions, masquerading as
morals, of the
institutionalized
religion.
Institutionalized
religion is incapable of doing the
very thing that is needed by an individual feeling separated from life (which is the same as being
sepearted from God).
Institutionalized
religion can bring the "lost soul"
into a feeling of fellowship with fellow believers but it can never heal
the seperation that man feels from
God.
The only thing that can heal the
the seperation that man feels from God is
mystical states of unitive
experience - oneness with the
cosmos or with God. For this type of experience no intercessor is
needed!
Spiritually corrupt men have taken
control of religion and
institutionalized it elevating
dogma over truth.
Religion is
defined as:
The life or condition of an
individual in a
religious order.
A monastic or
religious order subject to a regulated mode
of life.
A personal or
institutionalized
system grounded in such
belief and
worship.
A cause, principle, or
activity pursued with zeal or conscientious
devotion.
A set of beliefs, values, and practices
based on the teachings of a
spiritual leader.
Belief in
and reverence for a
power regarded as Creator and
Sustainer of all that exists.
Specifically,
conformity in
faith and life to the
precepts in the Bible, respecting the
conduct of life and
duty toward God and man; the
Christian faith and practice of the
imitation of Jesus as an
expression of the love we
feel for Jesus.
The outward
act or
form by which
men indicate their recognition of the
existence of a god or of
gods, supernatural or
natural, having power over their
destiny, to whom
obedience,
service, and
honor are due; the
feeling or expression of human love, or
awe of a inconceivable power, whether by profession of belief, by observance of ritual, or by the
conduct of life; a
system of faith and
worship; a manifestation of
piety.
For example:
Ghost dance - A
religious
dance of the North
American Indians, participated in by both
sexes, and looked upon as a rite of invocation the
purpose of which is, through
meditation and vision,
to bring the dancer into
communion with the unseen
world and the spirits of
departed loved ones. Originated about 1890 in the
doctrines of the Piute Wovoka, the Indian
Messiah, who taught that the time was drawing near when
the whole Indian
race, the dead
with the living, should be reunited to
live a life
of millennial happiness upon a regenerated
Earth. The religion inculcates
peace,
righteousness, and
work, and holds that in good time,
without
warlike intervention, the
oppressive white rule will
be removed by the higher powers.
Religion, as distinguished from
theology, is subjective, designating the
feelings and
acts of a group of
men which relate to
God; while theology is objective, and denotes those
ideas which an
individual entertains respecting
the God whom the
individual
worships, especially his
systematized concepts of God.
As
distinguished from morality,
religion denotes the
influences and
motives to human
duty which are found in the
character and
will of God, while
morality describes the duties to
mankind which true
religion
influences.
As distinguished from
piety,
religion is a high
sense of moral obligation
and spirit of reverence or
worship which affects the
soul of man with
respect to the God, while
piety, which first
expressed the
feelings of a
child toward a parent, is used for that filial sentiment of
veneration and love which
humans owe to the
Father - Creator and Sustainer of all.
As distinguished from
sanctity, religion is the means by
which sanctity is achieved, sanctity denoting primarily that
purity of heart and
life which results from habitual
communion with
God, and a sense of
God's continual presence.
Shamanism refers to a range of
traditional beliefs and practices concerned with communication with
the spirit world.
Although there are many variations of
shamanism throughout the
world, there are some beliefs that are shared by all forms of
shamanism:
The
spirits can play important roles in
human lives.
The shaman can
control and/or
cooperate with the
spirits for the community's benefit.
The
spirits can be either good or evil.
Shamans
engage various processes and techniques to incite trance; such as: singing,
dancing, taking entheogens, meditating and
drumming.
Animals play an important role,
acting as omens and message-bearers, as well as representations of
animal spirit
guides.
The shaman's spirit leaves the
body and enters into the supernatural world of spirit during
certain tasks.
The shamans can treat illnesses or sickness.
Shamans are healers, gurus and
magicians.
Greek
mythmakers were either practioners of
precognition or they had already witnessed tremendous change wrought by
the technological use of fire.
The
Greek mythmakers understood the doom
implicit in the power of fire.
The
Olymipians chained Prometheus to a rock to have his his liver eternally eaten
out by an eagle for giving humans the power to be like them, to become, through
the technologies of fire, the "lords and
possessors of nature", usurping what was once a divine function.
"Prometheus, you are glad that you have outwitted me and stolen
fire ... but I will give men as the price
for fire an evil
thing in which they may all be glad of heart while they embrace their own
destruction."
And thus did humanity receive Pandora's box - an
unfolding of the technologies of fire which
brought with them the narcotic of technological addiction so desirable but
filled with the strife, disease, and ruin that humanity has experienced since
the first technologic mastering of the use
of fire to modify and control nature.
Aboriginal Australians used
fire to clear brush and revitalize
ecosystems.
The Eskimos could not have survived in the far North but for
the blubber lamp.
And then bronze age metallurgists gave us bronze
swords to cleave hide and bone.
The Alchemists used
fire to purify substances giving humanity distilled
alcohol.
Abraham Gesner distilled coal oil/kerosene from coal and then
from crude oil. A byproduct of kerosene production from petroleum was gasoline.
Friedrich August Kekulé envisioned six snakes eating each other tails
and understood the nature of benzene. Thomas Midgley added
tetra methyl-ethyl lead to
create anti-knock aviation fuel which made mass airplane production possible
for Nazi Germany.
And eventually the penultimate technologies of
fire - nuclear fission - the
power to obliterate large swaths of humanity in the
hands of the Nuclear Missile
Combat Crew (were Death Wears Bunny Slippers) was given to humanity by the
Manhattan and Redstone Rocket programs. (Redstone rocket
program courtesy of the OSS and Operation
Paperclip.)
Technological cornucopians believe that just one more breakthrough will
solve all of humanities problems. Apparently they
failed to read and understand Greek mythology. "It is amazing
how the characteristics of the gods of the Greek pantheon so closely resemble
the ambitions of technological utopia: they
possessed immortality, eternal youth, and flawless physical
beauty; they could travel at incredible speeds and
fly through the air; and they possessed lordship over the processes of
nature. Today we aspire through our technology to the status of
gods." - Charles Eisenstein
"He spoke to them of the
creation of Man, asking of each what
he could bestow upon the race about to be born, the Sun first replied:
"I will illumine
mankind."
Then the Moon promised
enlightenment in her turn, adding that
already she had created
Fear, Silence,
Sleep, and Memory.
Kronos announced that he had begotten
Justice and Necessity.
"In order to spare the
future race perpetual wars, I have generated Fortune,
Hope, and Peace." - Zeus added
Ares declared himself
already father of Conflict,
impetuous Zeal, and
Emulation.
Aphrodite did not wait to be
called upon:
"I will bestow upon mankind Desire, with voluptuous Joy and Laughter, that the penalty, to which our sister
Souls are destined may not weigh on them too hardly."
These words of Aphrodite, O my Son, were welcomed gladly.
"And
I," said Hermes, "will endow human nature
with Wisdom, Temperance, Persuasion, and
Truth; nor will I cease to ally myself with
Invention. I will ever protect the
mortal life of such men as are born under my signs,
seeing that to me the Creator and Father has attributed
in the Zodiac, signs of
Knowledge and Intelligence; above all, when the movement
which draws thereto the stars is in
harmony with the physical forces of each." - The Virgin of the
World, Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus translated by Anna Kingsford, Edward
Maitland "The nineteenth century, the century of
reason, was devoid of myths, and only the "poets" (falsifiers!)
regretted this. Then along came the psychology of the
subconscious, then sociology and history, to give a fresh meaning, and
thereby vigor, to these dusty tales incorporated
in Greco-Latin mythology. No longer were they a
childish invention to lend color to a naive religion. Men perceived instead
subtle expressions of the profound and
complicated tendencies of man, and
the divinities involved in
these myths were no longer the
simple gods of thunder and of
time. Analysis of the myths themselves led
to a far deeper understanding of
something permanent in man, of a certain
relation with the
universe and a
certain structural pattern within his
soul." - Jacques Ellul
Ancient Greek
religion emphasizes the fragility
and difficulty of human
existence.
The Ancient Greek
gods deify the
forces of nature
which include the forces of human emotion.
Ancient Greek polytheism
enables human beings to establish their true place in the world
and offers a realistic opinion of what humans
may reasonably expect in living their lives.
Mortals can never
aspire to full knowledge, and
they cannot control the events of
their lives.
Traditional ancient
Greek polytheistic religion
proposes a mode of life in which mortals must try to
align themselves with the will of the
gods as best as they can.
The will of the gods
is known through the tales that are told of their nature and those tales
are moral tales
that forewarn the listener to the pitfalls of being carried away by
emotional extravagance.
panentheism - the correct
definition
"The manifold bounties of the Lord of all beings
have, at all times, through the manifestations of His divine Essence,
encompassed the earth and all that dwell therein." -
Bahá'u'lláh
Then God said, "I'm
not going to breathe life into men and women endlessly. No one will live
for more than one hundred twenty years." - Genesis 6:3
"Ask the
animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of
the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea
inform you. Which of all these does not know what the hand of the
God has done this? In God's hand is the life of
every creature and the breath of all mankind." - Job 12:7-10
"Even as the visible sun that assists, as decreed
by God, the true One, in the development of all
earthly things, such as the trees, the fruits, and colors thereof, the minerals
of the earth, and all that may be witnessed in the world of creation, so do
the divine Luminaries, by
their loving care and educative influence, cause the trees of divine unity, the
fruits of His oneness, the leaves of detachment, the blossoms of knowledge and
certitude, and the myrtles of wisdom and utterance, to exist and be made
manifest." - Bahá'u'lláh"It is not in "God's
house" that I feel His presence most - it is in His outdoors, on some
sun-warmed slope of pine needles or by the surf. It is there that
the numbing categories men have
devised to contain this mystery of
existence fall away." - Bill McKibben
"I tell you, do not worry.
Do not worry about your
life and what you will eat or drink.
Do not worry about your body and what you
will wear. Isn't there more to life than
eating? Aren't there more important things
for the body than clothes?
"Look at the birds of the air. They don't
plant or gather crops. They don't put away crops in storerooms. But your
Father who is in heaven feeds
them. Aren't you worth much more than they are?
Can you add even one
hour to your life by worrying?
And why do you worry about
clothes? See how the wild flowers grow. They don't work or make clothing.
But here is what I tell you. Not even Solomon in all of his glory was
dressed like one of those flowers.
If that is how God dresses the wild
grass, won't he dress you even better? After all, the grass is here only today.
Tomorrow it is thrown into the fire. You have so little faith! " - Matthew
6:25-30
Panentheism is commonly misidentified
as a combination of theism (god is the supreme being) and pantheism (god is
everything) but this is incorrect in that panentheists believe that God is
not everything but that God's
emanation,
God's blueprint for existence,
God's specifications of reality, is within
everything and that God sustains all things through continued
emanations.
God is the holy,
sovereign,
omnipresent,
omniscient,
omnipotent,
self-existent,
eternal,
immutable, the
perfect creative
animating and motivating force of all that
exists.
God animates the universe
in a continual and never ending emanation. In Hebrew this is called Sovev
Kol Almin. This does not imply that God
changes - it simply states that in fact everything else, with the exception of
God, does change which we
know to be true through
observation of God's
creation.
The
Bible presents God as holy (Isaiah 6:3;
Revelation 4:8), sovereign (1 Chronicles 29:11; Nehemiah 9:6; Psalm 83:18;
Isaiah 37:20), omnipresent (Psalm
139:7-10), omniscient (Job 28:24;
Psalm 147:4-5), omnipotent (Job 42:1-2),
self-existent (Exodus 3:14; Psalm 36:9),
eternal (Psalm 90:2; Habakkuk
1:12), immutable (Psalm 33:11;
James 1:17), perfect (Deuteronomy 32:3-4), and
infinite (Job 5:9; 9:10). None
of these attributes of God are incompatible
with believing God
also motivates and animates
His
Creation.
This has an
important theological
implication:
God's creation did not
end in the past, but is continually flowing forth.
Countless times every second, every subatomic particle in the entire
universe is being re-born.
North
American Indians were and still are largely panentheistic,
conceiving of God as both
immanent in Creation
and transcendent from
it.
Panentheism is a theological component of
Hasidic Judaism and
Kabbalah.
Several Sufi
saints and critical thinkers,
primarily Ibn Arabi, held beliefs that were
panentheistic.
Many
interpretations of
Hinduism can be seen as
panentheistic. The first and most ancient ideas of panentheism originate in the
Bhagvad Gita.
Gnosticism claims that substance was created by
emanations of
God.
The panentheism concept of
God is closely associated with the
Logos as stated in the 5th century works of
Heraclitus in which the Logos pervades the cosmos
and whereby all thoughts and
things originate.
"Nearness to God is
common to us all, because we're all created and sustained by
God, but only the authentically noble
possess and live that nearness, that constant upswelling
passion of love." -
Rumi
I bind unto myself today to
the Creator and Sustainer of all. Creator and Sustainer beside me,
Creator and Sustainer before me, Creator and Sustainer behind me,
Creator and Sustainer beneath me, Creator and Sustainer above me,
Creator and Sustainer on my right, Creator and Sustainer on my left,
Creator and Sustainer within me, Creator and Sustainer to comfort and
restore me, Creator and Sustainer to guide me in quiet and in
danger, Creator and Sustainer in the heart of every man who thinks of
me, Creator and Sustainer in the mouth of every man who speaks of
me, Creator and Sustainer in every eye that sees me, in every ear that hears
me.
"All around us, to right and left, in front and
behind, above and below, we have only to go a little beyond the frontier of
sensible appearances in order to see the divine welling up and showing through.
But it is not only close to us, in front of us, that the divine presence has
revealed itself. It has sprung up universally, and we find ourselves so
surrounded and transfixed by it, that there is no room left to fall down and
adore it, even within ourselves.
By
means of all created things, without exception, the divine assails us,
penetrates us and moulds us. We imagined it
as distant and inaccessible, whereas in
fact we live steeped in its burning layers. In eo vivimus. As Jacob said,
awakening from his dream,
the world, this palpable
world, which we were wont to treat with the boredom and disrespect with
which we habitually regard places with no sacred association for us, is in
truth a holy
place, and we did not know it. " -
Pierre Teilhard de
Chardin
"As long as the Earth
endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer
and winter, day and night will never cease." - Genesis 8:22
"The image of the
universe at large underlying the new
vision is based on philosophical implications of
quantum-relativistic physics and the anthropic principle. It acknowledges
consciousness as a fundamental aspect of
existence, equal or possibly supraordinated to
matter, rather than its accidental product, an
epiphenomenon of matter. It sees the
universe as a product of
superior creative intelligence and
permeated with it ("anima mundi"). Instead of the Newtonian supermachine
consisting of separate building blocks (elementary particles and objects) it
portrays the universe as a unified
field, an organic whole in which everything is meaningfully interconnected." -
Stanislav Grof
A
mystical core exists within all
religions, Eastern and Western.
This mystical core is directly
related to human
dreams, emotional needs and
emotional experiences.
Human subconscious reality is
symbolically expressed within this
mystical core in each
religion in ways that differ only as to
culture or sub-culture.
Each
religion has an element of truth in that
the subconscious symbolic spiritual
archetypes spring directly from
human dreams,
emotional needs and emotional experiences.
The essential elements of religion conceptualize spiritual
reality as common among all
men.
All human life is
spiritually
interconnected through the subconscious
symbolic spiritual
archetypes that
express subconscious human reality in the
mystical core of each
religion.
All
human souls are
motivated at the most basic spiritual level to
participate spiritually as well as
materially in life.
All human
beings deal with the forces of
reality spiritually
in much the same way, even though
there are cultural and
religious differences.
The
seemingly infinite myriad of
physical forces that exist in
reality can be broken down and seen as the
interaction of four basic universal forces
of energy which binds all inanimate substance in
the universe together.
"God" is the name
given to the Creator of this energy, the
Creator of these
four basic universal forces and the
Creator of all substance.
In the
mystical core the
Creator binds all substance together and grants inanimate
substance life.
In
the mystical core, where common
subconscious symbolic
spiritual archetypes reside, all
things are seen as connected to all other things.
Individual
human intellects are
beginning to understand the "inter-connectedness" of all
things and these
enlightened intellects see that
science and
spirituality are ultimately
harmonious.
Intuition, rationalism, skepticism, and the
scientific method in
combination and properly balanced raises
awareness which in turn
awakens the
consciousness to the reality of our common subconscious symbolic
spiritual archetypes and the
mystical core of our souls.
This
awakening of
consciousness allows a shifting of
control over the expression of
spirituality from
religious authority to the individual.
Free souls no longer
need an intercessor to
God.
This
enlightened manner of reflecting on the
mystical core of reality to
understand the
essence of reality brings
awakening to and
human
understanding of
reality. This
awakening moves individuals
towards personal
responsibility as well as personal empowerment.
The ultimate
awakening to
reality occurs when we personally
experience the revelations of the infinite
eternal power of the divine spark that resides within
each and every human heart/soul.
From the ultimate
awakening we find
infinite compassion as we walk hand in hand with God in the
Garden of Paradise on the perfect evening at the end of the
perfect day.
"While true religion is always the same thing, in
each century and every land it has never been the same thing in any two
centuries or lands. Anyone, who traces the history of what is called
Christianity, will see that nothing changes more from age to age than the
doctrines taught as Christian, and insisted on as essential to Christianity and
personal salvation. The heresy of one age is the orthodox belief of the next.
Since our various theologies are so transient, why do we need to accept
the teachings of men, as though they were the word of God? Almost every sect
makes Christianity rest on the personal authority of Jesus, rather than the
immutable truth of the doctrines themselves. It is hard to see why the great
truths of Christianity should rest on the personal authority of Jesus, any more
than the axioms of geometry rest on the personal authority of Euclid, or
Archimedes.
The authority of Jesus, as of all teachers, must rest on
the truth of his words. God's word will not change, for that word is Truth.
From this Jesus subtracted nothing; to this he added nothing." - Theodore
Parker
"When we see the same ideas promulgated as divine
truth, on the ancient banks of the Ganges, and the modern shores of the
Mediterranean, we are constrained to admit that they have something com mon in
their source. They may be the result of celestial revelation, or they may all
alike emanate from human ingenuity. As men invent new forms of religion now,
there is a presumption that others may have done so formerly. As all men are
essentially human, so we may believe that their inventions will be
characterised by the virtues and the fail ings of humanity. Again, experience
tells us that similarity in thought involves similarity in action.
The
Christian trinity is of Egyptian origin, and is as surely a pagan doctrine as
the belief in heaven and hell, the existence of a devil, of archangels, angels,
spirits and saints, martyrs and virgins, intercessors in heaven, gods and
demigods, and other forms of faith which deface the greater part of modern
religions." - Thomas InmanNothing has ever emerged spontaneously
in human culture
from an absolute vacuum.
A religion has never suddenly appeared
and been accepted by any large number of people.
All
religions start from an older
religion which is transformed
in an attempt to better fit the current conceptual
understanding of
God.
The
Hebrew
religion was built upon the
beliefs of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten as well as the
myths and
religions of the
Sumerians, the
Canaanites and the followers of
Zoraster .
Christianity is built upon the
Hebrew
religion.
Islam is built upon the
Christian and
Hebrew
religions.
Vedic Sanskrit, a classical language of India, is the
liturgical language of Hinduism,
Buddhism,
Sikhism, and
Jainism.
An example of a modern
religion that has transformed
Christianity to fit its precepts is
Mormonism.
A new testament
appeared, the book of Mormon, and
Christians were converted into
Mormons.
To traditional
Christians this new testament appears as a
fictional account of the adventures, or the life and times, of
Jesus, the
Holy Spirit and God but to Mormons
the book of Mormon is the
word of God written down by
Joseph Smith.
The individuals that first accepted
Mormonism were
Christians before they became
Mormon.
Christianity and
Mormonism are nearly the same, only the
Mormon's have the book of
Mormon which includes a rewritten New and
Old Testament.
Christianity and
Islam is nearly the same only
Islam has the Qur'an.
Judaism and Christianity are nearly the same only
Christianity has the
New Testament. (Talmudism branched from Judaism when the Hebrews were conquered by the
Babylonians.)
When a
religion is founded it is usually founded with a "book" or a body of
literature. An example of a religion that was founded upon a mixture of
Christianity and Judaism is the Elcesaites Elkasites, Helkesaites, Elchasai or
Echasaites based upon the writings of Elchasai. These writings gave rise to
cenobitic monasticism which resulted in the Desert Fathers - hermits, ascetics
and monks - who lived mainly in the Scetes desert of Egypt, beginning around
the third century. Their ideas through their writings eventuallygave rise to
the Discalced Carmelites which was founded on the writings of
Teresa Sanchez de Cepeda y Ahumada
(St. Teresa of Ávila) and Juan de Yepes Alvarez (St. John of
the Cross) in 1593.
Although Christianity has two main branches
Catholicism and
Protestantism they both use basically the
same testament that was decided upon by the
Roman Catholic Council of Nicaea in
325 AD.
Protestants take the
early Christian writings the
Roman Catholics claim are
not heretical and accept them
wholeheartedly but get a slightly different message from them.
Protestants never stop to ask the question of
whether the books contained in the Bible tell the whole
story or whether they have been edited,
corrected, redacted, combined, added to, re-edited, re-corrected and
corrupted by the very group that neoevangelic
Protestants or
literalists condemn as a "cult", the
Holy Roman Catholic Church
of scribes/priests/monks, management and of course the chief executive officer, the CEO or Pope.
The difference between main stream
religion and "cults" is basically
the degree of acceptance by the culture in which the
religion exists although many
religious "authorities"
condemn any religious viewpoint not their own as
heretical and groups that hold such views
as "cults."
All of the aforementioned
religions have come from a
already existing
popularly
accepted institutionalized religion and that is why they have
large numbers of adherents.
Religious "cults" that are not based
upon existing
religious
traditions typically do not survive
through several generations.
A
good example of a "cult" that was not based on
existing religious
traditions and that had very few followers is
Heaven's Gate. Heaven's Gate religious founder
Marshall Applewhite had only 38 followers
follow him through "Heaven's Gate" to hitch a ride on the comet Hale-Bopp in
1997.

"Manipulating a religious structure in order to use
its thoughtforms for
domination purposes is common within
any religion, and neither Christianity,
Islam nor any religion are immune to such
parasitism and corruption." - Leland
Lehrman"Any court that was established in any town after the time
of the Talmud and enacted legislations or enacted customs for the town's
residents or for several towns' residents, its enactments did not gain the
acceptance of all Israel, because of the remoteness of their settlements and
the difficulties of travel, and because the members of the court of any
particular town were just individuals and the Great Rabbinical Court of seventy
members had ceased to exist several years before the writing of the
Talmud." - Moses Maimonides, Preface to the Mishneh Torah
The Talmudic
ethnocentric mindset expressed
publically as Zionism is
detrimental to the well being of the human race. In the attempt to
create a material
heaven on Earth - a Utopia for Talmudists (a remaking the
Earth, physically socially and spiritually, into
something that more closely resembles "heaven" in the
Talmudic mindset - reality has been trampled underfoot.
The
reality of Creation as it
stands is unacceptable to children because reality
does not neatly conform to childish wishes. When adults embrace a
Talmudic mindset sorrow and grief follow
for the vast majority of sycophants while a few,
the elite, reap gargantuan windfalls based on
deception. The
Talmudists came up with the
idea of the
joint stock
corporation in which capital
investors are not held responsible for the environmental, social, health and
economic consequences of the
joint stock
corporation operations in
the pursuit of increasing shareholder value. To pursue
wealth for wealth's sake
alone is to abandon God and to genuflect at the
altar of the Synagogue of Satan. As
Americans have been falsely conditioned to believe that the followers of the
Talmud hold many of the same
moral values as
true Christians this conditioning is in need of
correction.
Here follows the correction:
To
understand the industrialized materialistic
social culture in which we live it
is necessary to understand the ethnocentric
Zionist Ashkenazi worldview that
has become preeminent in elite international
culture.
Abraham and the early Israelites settled
tentatively in the land of the Canaanites, but
famine eventually drove them towards Egypt.
Jacob's eleventh son and Rachel's first, Joseph became advisor to Pharaoh
Thutmose IV, who in his turn was followed by his son Pharaoh Amenhotep III the
father of Pharaoh Akhenaten. According to
Genesis 46:11, Amram's father Kehath immigrated to Egypt with 70 of Jacob's
household, making Moses part of the second generation of Israelites born in
Egypt. Ultimately the Israelites were led back to Canaan - the
Promised Land - by Moses on a "40 year" trek across the desert when
the admistration of monotheistic Akhenaten in
Egypt fell.
Moses instituted laws of behavior and belief, known
today as the Mosaic code, built upon the foundations of the 17 centuries of
knowledge gathered by the Eygptian civilization.
The Israelites forcibly
reestablished themselves in the land of the
Canaanites and over the following centuries divided into sub-clans,
fighting and warring among themselves, and against others. The most drastic
intra-Jewish schism was the establishment of two conflicting monarchies -
Israel, in the north, and Judah, in the south.
When the ancient kingdom
of Israel joined a coalition of non-Hebrew states in threatening the southern
Hebrew kingdom, Judah joined the powerful Assyrian kingdom which
destroyed Israel in about 723 BC.Judah
was destroyed, in turn, in 586 BC, by
Babylonian invasion.
Once the Israelites fell under the
control of the
Babylonian
Nebuchadnezzar of the Chaldean Dynasty, the original
social culture of the Israelites
was transformed by the Chaldean social
culture of Nebuchadnezzar.
The fall of Israel and Jerusalem was
caused directly by the Israelites and lead
to their 'captivity.' The Israelites had
turned from the God's Law supplanting
them with laws of their own
devising.
The Israelites no
longer left the ground fallow on the seventh year - to give the soil a chance
to rejuvenate, refused to leave the land fallow on the Jubilee year or to
return such land as spelled out in Mosiac Law - the Law of Moses. (The
Israelites also refused to free their
slaves every seven years in compliance
with Mosiac Law.)
"There is a spiritual need for periodical abolition of
the norms that govern profane life - in other words, of the need to suspend the
law that lies like a dead weight on customs, and to recreate the state of
absolute spontaneity." - Mircea Eliade
The ancient
Israelites of Moses time adopted the science
of Eygptian civilization - the carefully observation the
laws of nature over the past 17
centuries in an attempt to live within nature in the
wisest manner possible. Over time and after careful
observation it became apparent that certain actions worked with
nature to create added
benefits for the individual and the social culture as a whole. Although
many of these observations are accepted as valid and true today few individuals
understand their origin. For example, slaughtering an animal quickly, efficiently
and draining the blood makes biological sense. Another example is cleanliness
in that cleanliness reduces disease. These "laws" or "commandments" of
God were based on the careful observation of
reality - God's
Laws.
By rejecting the ancient wisdom of
their ancestors, spoken as God's word, the
Israelites rejected
God's Law.
Realizing that their
unique Hebrew tribal culture was being transformed by Babylonian
culture Jewish leaders took
countermeasures.
"The beginnings of
Pharisaic thought are actually entirely noble.
After the Babylonians destroyed Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem and took the
Jews into captivity in Babylon, the
Jews needed to figure out how they were
going to keep their religion alive. Their
religion had been centered on the Temple,
its priesthood, and its liturgy of sacrifice; it was their highest form of
worship. Furthermore the Jews' ability to
preserve their unique way of
life had been facilitated by their having their own
land. Now they were adrift in a foreign land, their Temple was gone, and they
needed to find some cohesive force which would prevent their people from
assimilating into Babylonian culture.
What,
then, remained to them? They had the Torah,
the prophets, and the writings. Thus, the elders of the
Jews developed synagogue worship. The
Jews would assemble together, a scholar of
the Scriptures would read and expound upon them, and the people would pray and
worship together. By developing this system where Scripture study was at the
center of their worship services, the elders of the
Jews were able to impress the Torah on
people's hearts firmly enough, and teach them what it contained well enough,
that the people preserved a considerable amount of their their cultural and
religious identity and did not assimilate entirely into Babylon.
Synagogue worship and the tradition of Scripture scholarship lived on
even after the Jews were restored to their
homeland and rebuilt their Temple in Jerusalem. Thereafter the rabbis began to
accumulate human accretions to the Torah and to modify the
existing Law for one reason
or another. They developed a formal method of exegesis known as Midrash by which they could read
their inventions into the biblical text, and read
contradictions to their inventions
out of it.
Midrash is not sound biblical exegesis. Frequently
these so-called interpretations actually overturn what Scripture plainly,
literally says. While the Talmud never explicitly rejects anything from the
Torah, on the other hand if it doesn't like
what the Torah says it interprets it out of
existence. The Talmud has an interpretive
hegemony over the
Torah; it can make it say what it wants it
to say. When these exegetical practices are applied in order to justify
teachings which are foreign or even opposed to the
Torah, we are dealing with clear
dishonesty." - Ben Douglass
"The exegesis which consists in distorting
texts in order to bring out of them what they desired is the only 'science'
which can be traced to the Jews. The attempt to 'Judaize' Hellenism, which
today appears to us so perfectly absurd and disastrous, has had, nevertheless,
the result of obscuring the intelligence of humanity for hundreds of years." -
Georges Batault
"What virtues and what vices
brought upon the Talmudist this universal enmity? Why was he in turn equally
maltreated and hated by the Alexandrians and the Romans, by the Persians and
the Arabs, by the Turks and by the Christian nations? BECAUSE EVERYWHERE AND UP
TO THE PRESENT DAY, THE TALMUDIST WAS AN UNSOCIABLE BEING. Why was he
unsociable? Because he was exclusive and his exclusiveness was at the same time
political and religious, or, in other
words, he kept to his political religious cult and his
Law. To his unsociability the Talmudist added
exclusiveness. Without the Law, without Talmudists to
practice it, the world would not
exist, God would
make it return again into a state of nothing; and the world will not know
happiness until it is subjected to the universal empire of that
Law, that is to say, TO THE EMPIRE OF THE TALMUDISTS." -
Lazare Marcus Manassé Bernard*
Upon their release from 'bondage' in Babylon the
Pharisees embarked upon a new
adventure - reinterpretation of the scriptures to justify
political actions taken simply for
expediencies sake in the pursuit of
comfort and material wealth. The laws turned from
being laws based upon observable occurrences in
nature that benefitted the entire
social culture into
laws that were basically designed to
modify natural human behavior with
social engineering into
behavior approved by men who had fallen into the
transcensdental temptation that was
meant to benefit a select elite. Their intent
was to create a Utopian social culture which
conformed to the elites of
rabbinic Judaism's expectations, wishes or
ideals of perfection.
Dr. Arthur Green, the Philip W. Lown Professor of Jewish Thought
at Brandeis University, lists some of the hermeneutical assumptions of
Midrash as "the legitimacy of juxtaposing verses from anywhere in
Scripture without concern for dating or context, the rearranging of words or
even occasional substitution of letters, use of numerology and abbreviation as
ways to derive meaning," and, "the endless
glorification of biblical heroes and
the tarring of
villains."
"This verse is
written for the sake of new interpretations." - Babylonian Talmud, Tractate
Sanhedrin 55a
"These people come near to me with their mouth and honor
me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is
made up only of rules taught by men." - Isaiah 29:13
"They
worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men." - Mark
7:7
"These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far
from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by
men." - Matthew 15.8-9
The
Rabbinic Judaism of the
Pharisees, based on the ritual
following of the latest interpretation of the
letter of their law, rules taught by men,
evolved through commentary and
reinterpretation of the
Torah and the resulting work became
known as the Babylonian Talmud. The
Pharisees sent
Judaism upon a fatal path acting as
interpreters of God's will
while abandoning the scientific
observations of reality for observations of
dialectical conceptual and ideological
connections.
What is today called
Judaism in no way resembles what most
Americans have been indoctrinated to
believe is the
religion of the ancestors of
Jesus - expounded by Moses as Mosiac Law.
Instead the religion of the Pharisees - Talmudism - is falsely
identified as Judaism.Even
though the evolved
religion of the
Pharisees -
Talmudism - was originally
Torah based by the
time of Jesus the
religion of the
Torah had been debased by the
incorporation of alien religious ideologies which
included a mix of Babylonian, Egyptian and
Hellenistic astrology and Babylonian, Vedic, Egyptian and Chinese
numerology which resulted in the creation of the
Talmud and eventually the
Kabbalah. (The
Kabbalah incorporated some of the
shamanistic beliefs of the
Khazar.)
It is easy to
understand the
magic that numbers,
the stars and planets held for
social cultures that did not more
thoroughly understand the
workings of the natural world in which
they lived. It is much more difficult and does require much more work to go
about explaining the workings of nature in factual
reality than to adopt or just make up
symbolic conceptual
imaginative ideologies which may or may not be based upon
observable reality.
SKETCH OF THE PROPHETIC THEOLOGY OF NUMBERS One, Unity, is the
principle and the synthesis of numbers; it is the idea of God and of man; it is
the alliance of reason and of faith. Two, the Binary, is more particularly
the number of woman, mate of man and mother of society. Three, the Ternary,
is the number of creation. God creates Himself eternally, and the infinite
which He fills with His works is an incessant and infinite creation. Four,
the Quaternary, is the number of force. Five, the Quinary is the number of
religion, for it is the number of God united to that of woman. Six, the
Senary, is the number of initiation by ordeal; it is the number of equilibrium,
it is the hieroglyph of the knowledge of Good and Evil. Seven, the
Septenary, is the great biblical number. It is the key of the Creation in the
books of Moses and the symbol of all religion. Eight, the Ogdoad, is the
number of action and reaction. Each pair represents the male and female aspect
of one of four concepts, namely water (Nu/Naunet), air (Amun/Amunet), darkness
(Kuk/Kauket), and eternity (Huh/Hauhet). Every action produces a reaction. This
is the universal law of reality. Nine is the hermit of the Tarot; the
number which refers to initiates and to prophets. The prophets are solitaries,
for it is their fate that none should ever hear them. Ten is the absolute
number of the Kabbalah Qabbala, Qabba-la-h; also written variously as Cabala,
Cabalah, Cabbala, Cabbalah, Kabala, Kabalah, Kabbala, Qabala, Qabalah; the key
of the Sephiroth, the laws of light'. Hokhmah (wisdom); Binah
(understanding); Daat (knowledge); Hesed (kindness); Din (justice); Tif'eret
(beauty); Nezah (endurance); Hod (splendor); Yesod (foundation); Shekhinah
(God's presence). Eleven is the number of force; it is that of strife and
martyrdom. Every man who dies for an idea is a martyr, for in him the
aspirations of the spirit have triumphed over the fears of the animal.
Twelve is the cyclic number; it is that of the universal Creed.
Thirteen is the number of death and of birth. Fourteen is the number of
fusion, of association, and of universal unity. Fifteen is the number of
antagonism. Christianity is at present divided into two churches: the
civilizing church, and the savage church; the progressive church, and the
stationary church. Sixteen is the number of the temple. Let us say what the
temple of the future will be when the spirit of intelligence and love shall
have revealed itself. Seventeen is the number of the star; it is that of
intelligence and love. Eighteen is the number of religious dogma, which is
all poetry and all mystery. Nineteen is the number of light. It is the
existence of God proved by the very idea of God. The affirmation of atheism
is the dogma of eternal night, the affirmation of God is the dogma of infinite
light! ELIPHAS LEVI
In the Mishneh Torah of Moses
Maimonides within the Book of Knowledge is the subsection Laws of
Idolatry and Gentile Customs. Those observant of the Mishneh Torah
must not practice divination, black magic, soothsaying,
the charmer's art, may not consult the
dead, a ghost or a familiar spirit and are not to practice
witchcraft.
These
fantastic ideas are
consistent with those of all the other major religions at this period in human
history. The people of this period,
steeped in remants of pagan superstition, believed that divination, black magic, soothsaying, the
charmer's art, consultation with the dead, a
ghost or a familiar spirit and the practice of
witchcraft were all equally possible.
(The charmer's art is still practiced today but
is now known as marketing!)
Jesus was the
Jewish Messiah but not the
Talmudic Messiah as
Jesus refuted the
reinterpretation of the
Torah by the
Pharisees/rabbis and the change
from a God based social culture to a
law based social culture. Jesus
attempted to free the
Jews from Rabbinism by attempting to make clear to the
Jews that the
reinterpretations of the
Torah by the
Pharisees was not the
religion of Abraham, Moses and
David.
Jesus brings us the
sword of knowledge to
conquer those who stubbornly cling to
their blood soaked swords. Those that
stubbornly adhere to the warped law of the Talmud as well as rejecting
Jesus - as God personified - also reject the
God of Abraham, Moses and David -
I AM - the Creator and Sustainer of All Creation.
"When he saw many of the
Pharisees and Sadducees coming to
where he was baptizing, he said to them: "You brood of vipers! Who warned you
to flee from the coming wrath?" - John the
Baptist (Matthew 3:7)
"Be careful. Be on your guard against the teaching
of the Pharisees." - Jesus
(Matthew 16:6)
"The modern Jew is
the product of the Talmud."- Michael Levi
Rodkinson
"The Jewish
religion as it is today traces its
descent without a break, through all the centuries, from the
Pharisees. Their leading
ideas and methods found expression in a literature
of enormous extent. The Talmud is the
largest and most important single member of that literature and the study of it
is essential for any real
understanding of
Phariseeism." - Universal Jewish
Encyclopedia
"It is the
Talmudic
mentality and customs that are
largely responsible for the enmity of non-Jews towards
Jews. This enmity also
exists among Jews themselves, for
revolt is the keynote of modern
Jews,
revolt against
Rabbinism, Orthodox Judaism, which is
Talmudism." - David Goldstein
"The
first epistle opens with a reference to the chassidic
custom (a custom that thrives to this day) of apportioning the tractates of
the Talmud for study among the members of
each congregation or community, so that the entire work is completed in the
course of a year. The Rebbe has noted on a number of occasions that the
collective completion of the Talmud by a
number of individuals is considered as if each one of the group had completed
the entire Talmud himself." - Epistle 1
Iggeret HaKodesh
Most Talmudists
have not even read or studied the Talmud.
Instead this chassidic custom is practiced. Most
Talmudists, having not read the
Talmud, do not even
know what has been written and instead rely on
the religious teachers -
descendants of the Pharisees - to
inform them.
"The Talmud is to this
day the circulating heart's blood of the Jewish
religion. Whatever
laws, customs, or ceremonies we observe - whether we are
Orthodox, Conservative, Reform or merely spasmodic sentimentalists - we follow
the Talmud. It is our common
law." - Herman Wouk
There are two versions of
the Talmud, of Babylonian and Palestinian
origin. The latter, the Yerushalmi, is rarely used.
"The Babylonian
Talmud is especially distinguished from
the Jerusalem or Palestine Talmud by
the flights of thought, the
penetration of mind, the flashes of genius,
which rise and vanish again
It was for this reason that the Babylonian
rather than the Jerusalem Talmud became
the fundamental possession of the Ashkenazi race, its life breath, its
very soul
nature and mankind, powers and events, were for the
Jewish nation insignificant, non-essential,
a mere phantom; the only true reality
was the Talmud." - Professor Heinrich
Graetz, History of the Jews
All editions of the
Talmud, in languages other than Hebrew,
have been heavily edited by their Ashkenazi publishers.
"Whole
paragraphs have been deleted, words have been expunged
or substituted, spellings have been changed, thoughts mutilated, and manuscripts seized and
burned." - Morris Goldstein
To
Talmudist's the
Talmudic authority takes precedence over
the Torah. The
Talmud, being mostly
rabbinic interpretation and
reinterpretation, is very similar
to the New
Apostolic Reformation where "apostles" and "prophets" interpret and
reinterpret the
will of God.
"The
Talmud is the central pillar of
Jewish culture."
- Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz
"The idea of God, the image of God, such as it
is reflected in the Bible, goes through three distinct phases. The first stage
is the Higher Being, thirsty for blood, jealous, terrible, war like. The
intercourse between the Hebrew and his God is that of an inferior to a superior
whom he fears and seeks to appease. The second phase the conditions are
becoming more equal. The pact concluded between God and Abraham develops its
consequences, and the intercourse becomes, so to speak, according to
stipulation. In the Talmudic Hagada, the Patriarchs engage in controversies and
judicial arguments with the Lord. The Torah and the Bible enter into these
debate and their intervention is preponderant. God pleading against Israel
sometimes loses the lawsuit. The equality of the contracting parties is
asserted. Finally the third phase the subjectively divine character of God is
lost. God becomes a kind of fictitious Being. These very legends, one of which
we have just quoted, for those who know the keen minds of the authors, give the
impression, that THEY, like their readers, of their listeners, LOOK UPON GOD IN
THE MANNER OF A FICTITIOUS BEING AND DIVINITY, AT HEART, FROM THE ANGLE OF A
PERSONIFICATION, OF A SYMBOL OF THE RACE." - Kadmi Cohen
It is incorrect to call most of the
followers of the Talmud
Jews, especially the
Yiddish
Khazar
Ashkenazi. Historically the
Jews were descendants of the tribe of Judah
who believed in and worshiped the
God of Abraham, Moses and David while using the
Torah, first five books of the Old
Testament, as their scared text.
Yiddish
Khazar
Ashkenazi use the Babylonian
Talmud and the
Kabbalah cobbled together from the
rabbinic interpretation,
reinterpretation and commentary of
the rabbis - Scribes and Pharisees - made after the fall of
Jerusalem.
For example, Chapter III of the Tract Sabbath of the
Babylonian Talmud, concerned with regulations concerning stoves, hearths and
ovens, begins with the rabbinical interpretation of whether it is right to
leave a pot on the stove, when the pot can be removed and what type of fuel is
allowed to cook food.
All this interpretation could be avoided and
probably began from the simple premise "if the fire is to hot the food will
burn and therefore be inedible; if the food is left too long over a low fire it
will spoil and be inedible."
Instead
rabbinical interpretation is taken to
the nth degree and the sycophant simply chooses which interpretation of
rabbinic regulation he/she prefers to follow.
"Is it so? Have we not
learned in a Boraitha: R. Jose in the name of R. Jehudah said: There were three
consecutive expositions. R. Joshua explained things before R. Johanan b.
Zakkai; R. Aqiba explained things before R. Joshua; Hananiah b. Hachinai
explained before R. Aqiba. Hence we see that R. Elazar b. Arakh was not
mentioned. (This presents no difficulty:) He who teaches and before whom others
teach is mentioned, while he who teaches and before whom others do not teach is
not mentioned. But was not Hananiah b. Hachinai one who taught and before whom
others did not teach? And still he was mentioned? Yea, for he taught at least
in the presence of one who taught others." - Babylonian Talmud, Tract Hagiga,
Chapter II translated by
Michael Levi Rodkinson
Jesus
condemned the traditions of the Mishnah (early
Talmud) and those
false religious teachers that taught
Talmudism (Scribes and
Pharisees) because
Talmudism nullifies the teachings of the
Torah.
The Babylonian
Talmud sets men up, the Rabbis (Scribes
and Pharisees), with supreme
moral authority while rejecting the
natural moral authority of
God.
Arthur
Koestler believed Talmudic reasoning,
interpretations of Noahide law specifically devised to evade
the original law, were a form of
spiritual corruption and that
the Talmud has always functioned as a
flexible apparatus to shift and adapt the Talmudic
religion over the centuries to
current needs and political expediencies.
"A low estimate of non-Jews pervades much of
Talmudic literature. The Mishna
admonishes Jews not to leave their
animals unattended at the inn of a
gentile, because
gentiles are suspected of engaging in
beastiality. Gentiles are described
also as liable to rape and
murder, so that a lonely
Jew should avoid their company." - Rabbi
Ismar Schorsch
The Babylonian Talmud says
gentiles can join
Talmudism as proselytes today or in the
future Talmudist controlled messianic kingdom physically established on
Earth by the Talmudists, as long as they sincerely follow
seven Noahide laws.
Unfortunately proselytes must unquestioningly
obey rabbinic authority
before studying the Talmud.
The
Noahide laws prohibit idolatry,
blasphemy,
murder, theft, "illicit
relations," eating meat with blood, and "failing to establish courts of
justice (punishment)." (Talmudists are
not concerned with justice they are concerned with
retribution.)
In
America today the
Zionist Ashkenazi have become
preeminent - the bulkward of the
neo-cons. Under Jesus' rule what is
important is adhering to the spirit of the
law which results in justice
and mercy. What is
important in Talmudic
America today is adherence to the letter of the
law which results in retribution,
punishment and
human suffering. (Unacceptable social behavior must be
stomped out!)
In a discussion with religious leaders along with
George H.W. Bush, Rabbi Yakov Cohen claimed the
road map to world peace is found in the seven Noahide laws.
"Our
goal will be realized in Yiddishkeit,
in a Jewish life being lived every place in the
world." - Rabbi Israel Miller (Hold
on to your foreskin, brother - here they come!)
"Is man to be
free to follow his conscience and worship his own God, or must he accept the
conscience and god of the Zionists?" - Robert H. Williams, The Ultimate
World Order
"The Noahide laws are the bare essentials that entitle a human being to retain his
right to life." - Rabbi Moshe Ben-Chaim (They want your liver,
brother!)
Rabbi Moshe Ben-Chaim states the
Talmudic ideal
exists in the future physically
created Talmudic
messianic kingdom on
Earth.
"As for the final result of the
Messianic
revolution it will always be the same - the nations will be converted to
Talmudism and will obey the Law, or else they will be destroyed, and the
Talmudists will be the masters of the world." -
Georges Batault
"Talmudist
Ashkenazi believe in the conversion of the
gentiles as part of the redemptive era,
following the stage of vengeance. A
link exists between
vengeance to be carried out against the
enemies of Israel and the redemption, and
that vengeance is a forerunner to
redemption." - Abraham Grossman, Jewish Studies -
Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities
Worldwide Noahide
observance was promoted by prominent Hasidic Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, who was
the seventh leader of the widespread Lubavitcher movement. Hasidic Rabbi
Menachem Schneerson was the reigning "temporary Messiah," or "Tzaddik," to a large segment of
Kabbalah leaning ultra-orthodox
Talmudists.
Rabbi Menachem
Schneerson and the Lubavitcher movement persuaded George H.W. Bush to proclaim
Education Day USA in which Rabbi Menachem Schneerson is honored and
Noahide law upheld as an exalted code of ethics to
inspire and guide
mankind.
Rabbi Menachem Schneerson
trained thousands of rabbis to spread strict Talmudic observance (centering around the
"Zohar" - mystical/revolutionary Kabbalah) around the
world.
"The time will come when all
Christians will become mature, they will all embrace Judaism, and they will all
justify themselves by deeds. Then the
Christians will become Jews.
The great
revolution that now takes place in the Christian world is the most
inspiring assurance that the hope of the Jews is coming to a realization:
The Christians will become Jews." -
Rabbi Harry Waton 1939
"YHVH gave Noah and all his descendants (B'nei
Noach or "children of Noah") seven commandments to obey. These seven universal
laws (known as the "Seven Noahide Laws") were reaffirmed with Moses and the
Jewish people at Mt. Sinai in what is now
known as the Oral Torah, establishing modern
observance of these laws. These seven commandments
(mitzvos), are actually seven categories of hundreds of specific
laws, are YHVH's will
for all gentiles." - Jews and
Hasidic Gentiles United to Save America Web Site, 06/08
The Mishneh Torah, the Talmud
codified, of Moses Maimonides is divided into 14 books with eighty-three groups
of commandments:
The Book of Knowledge has 5 groups of laws, 75
commandments, 16 positive and 59 negative. The Book of Love has 6 groups of
law, 11 positive commandments. The Book of Times has 10 groups of laws, 35
commandments, 19 positive and 16 negative. The Book of Women has 10 groups
of laws, 17 commandments, 8 positive and 9 negative. The Book of Holiness
has 3 groups of laws, 70 commandments, 8 positive and 62 negative. The Book
of Promises has 4 groups of laws, 25 commandments, 10 positive and 15 negative.
The Book of Seeds has 7 groups of laws, 67 commandments, 30 positive and 37
negative. The Book of Service has 9 groups of law, 103 commandments, 47
positive and 56 negative. The Book of Sacrifices has 6 groups of laws, 39
commandments, 20 positive and 19 negative. The Book of Ritual Purity has 8
groups of laws, 20 commandments, 18 positive and 2 negative. The Book of
Injuries has 5 groups of laws, 36 commandments, 16 positive and 20 negative.
The Book of Acquisition has 5 groups of laws, 18 commandments, 6 positive
and 12 negative. The Book of Judgments has 5 groups of laws, 23
commandments, 11 positive and 12 negative. The Book of Judges has 5 groups
of laws, 74 commandments, 27 positive and 47 negative.
The total number
of Torah commandments that are obligatory for all generations is 613: 248 of
them are positive commandments, whose mnemonic is the number of parts in the
human body; 365 of them are negative commandments, whose mnemonic is the number
of days in the solar year. (Numerology!)
" Ultra-Orthodox Jews have been
allowed to set the standards for Jewish identity, and if you do not abide by
all 613 commandments, you do not qualify as a "real" Jew." - Martin J.
Weisman
"The Babylonian Talmud
repeatedly says worship of Jesus is
idolatry, a crime worthy of
death. The Talmud also says
Jesus was a
blasphemer, a violator of the second
Noahide precept." - Reverend Ted Pike and Harmony Grant
Jesus realized the
Pharisees had set themselves up
as gods on Earth and
became a blasphemer in their eyes
because he failed to bow down to the
Pharisees.
Martin Luther saw the same
corruption in the Catholic incorporation and was
condemned by that
incorporation.
"Only
those who are con-vinced of Israel's divine
purpose in the world, will be welcome to join
Israel in
the upbuilding of an ideally spiritual
life on Earth. Israel, the
ideal, righteous
people, will thus become masters of
the world." - Talmudic scholar Dr.
Michael Higger
The Zohar, or Kabbalah, rivals the authority of the
Talmud for most
institutionally
religious Jews. It teaches that, as the divine yet
visible, practical manifestation of YHVH's
will in this world, it is Israel's job to
"wage war" against Gentile control by any means possible. "Proper order"
can only be restored by breaking down gentile and
Christian influence.
"The native
tendency of the Jewish race is against
the doctrine of the equality of
man." - Benjamin Disraeli
"According to the Zohar's
reasoning, causing "travail" among the
gentiles such as
Communism,
wars,
financial panic,
media corruption of society, the destruction
of families, abortion, pornography, and
homosexuality is necessary to bring
about a great good. The
Talmud and Zohar teach that this period of
"birth pangs" among the gentiles will
eventually recede as humanity is ushered into a new age of
Talmudic enlightenment." - Reverend Ted Pike and Harmony
Grant
"The
essence of
anti-Goyimism is passed to
Jewish children with their mother's milk,
and then nurtured, fed and watered carefully into a full-blown
phobia throughout
their lives. In order to avoid being contaminated by these terrible creatures,
the ultra-Orthodox go out of their way to avoid these people close up. Their
opinions are then perfectly formed. They know whom to hate.
Goyim are beasts that: drink alcohol
and are always drunk; are on drugs; hate
Jews even when they seem friendly; are
anti-Semites, no matter what they say and
do; have a terrible family life and mistreat their wives and children;
eat pork all the time; are never as clever,
as kind, as wise or as honest
as Jews; and no
Jew can ever trust Goyim.
The mark
of a truly devout Hasidic or Orthodox Jew,
as well as many other Jews, is an
unquestioned hatred of non-Jews. This is the
foundation of ultra-Orthodox and Hasidic philosophy." - Evelyn Kaye
"Even today,
encouraged by Jewish leaders,
Christianity is being heavily
Talmudized as Israel is slavishly
venerated and Talmudic rituals and
observances are increasingly practiced by (neo)evangelicals.
Talmud quoting messianic
Jews and
false prophets such as
Dr. John Hagee set the standard for
millions of (neo)evangelicals, inviting them to transition toward
Talmudism." - Reverend Ted Pike and
Harmony Grant
"Since the Talmud
reports the sayings of hundreds of savants over many centuries, it abounds in
contradictory maxims, in
conflicting metaphysical guesses, in baffling switches from cynicism to poetry,
from misanthropy to charity, from dislike of women to praise for them .... In a
word, one can say almost anything about this recording
of the talk of wise men through seven centuries, and then find a passage to
support it." - Herman Wouk
"Saturated with
numerology the Pharisees
preserved their ethnic pride intact. This
religion of
man divinised, absorbed at Babylon,
conceived solely as applying to the profit of the
Talmudic Jew, the superior and predestined being. The
promises of universal dominion which the
Talmudic Jew found in the law -
material domination to be imposed by the
Talmudist . The awaited
Messiah was no longer a
spiritual victor who would lead but now a
temporal king, bloody with battle, who
would make Israel master and 'drag all peoples
under the wheels of his chariot'. The
Pharisees did not ask this
enslavement of the nations of a
mystical Jehovah, which they continued worshiping in
public, only as a concession to popular
opinion, for they expected its eventual
consummation to be achieved by the secular patience of
Israel and the use of
human means." - Flavien Brenier
"Jesus's message was of radical inclusion
crossing all boundaries of race, gender, and
religion.
Talmudists must reject
Jesus or their own "chosenness." Few things could have been
more threatening to the racism of
the Pharisees, which depended on
firm physical barriers between Talmudist
and gentile.
Jesus ended the need for dramatic physical
separation from "unclean"
gentiles.
Jesus also ended any need for the
Pharisees as an institution of
guidance for the Jewish people." - Reverend
Ted Pike and Harmony Grant
Pharisees act as
intercessors to god in a similar
manner as Catholic clergy and
Pentecostal "apostles"
and "prophets".
"If every simple cell in a
Jewish body entails divinity, is a part of
G-d, then every strand of DNA is part of G-d. Therefore, something is special
about Jewish DNA . If a
Jew needs a liver, can you take the liver
of an innocent non-Jew passing by to save him? The
Talmud would probably permit that as
Jewish life has
infinite value." - Rabbi Yitzhak Ginsburgh
"Phariseeism became
Talmudism,
Talmudism became Medieval Rabbinism, and
Medieval Rabbinism became Modern Rabbinism. But throughout these changes of
name, inevitable adaption of custom, and adjustment of law,
the spirit of the ancient Pharisee survives unaltered. When
the Talmudist reads his prayer, he is
reciting formulae - prepared by pre-Maccabean scholars; when he dons the cloak
prescribed for the Day of Atonement and Passover Eve, he is wearing the
festival garment of ancient Jerusalem; when he studies the
Talmud he is actually repeating the
arguments used in the academies." - Rabbi Louis Finkelstein, president
Jewish Theological Seminary of America
"Woe to
you, teachers of the law and
Pharisees, you hypocrites! You
shut the kingdom of heaven in men's faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor
will you let those enter who are trying to.
Woe to you, teachers of the
law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You
travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one, you
make him twice as much a son of hell as you are.
Woe to you, teachers
of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give
a tenth of your spicesmint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the
more important matters of the lawjustice, mercy and faithfulness.
Woe to you, teachers of the law and
Pharisees, you hypocrites! You
clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and
self-indulgence.
Woe to you, teachers of the law
and Pharisees, you hypocrites!
You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the
inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean. In the same way, on
the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of
hypocrisy and wickedness." - Jesus Matthew 23
"It is true that an enormous number of
Ashkenazi are converting to
Buddhism. I think they feel weighed down by the laws and rituals." - Rabbi Dr Jonathan Romain, Maidenhead
synagogue
"Christianity does
threaten Talmudism as it is fundamentally
subversive by undermining the whole concept of "chosenness" or
salvation through
belonging to a particular group. That's
part of why Christianity has been
persecuted and resented by the Pharisees since the
beginning of the church age. That's what makes the unholy alliance between
(neo)evangelicals and Israel such a
strange state of affairs." - Reverend Ted Pike and Harmony Grant
"Social isolation had created
traits in need of drastic transformation:
Ashkenazi harbored within them
hatred of the Christian nurtured by
centuries of Talmudic and rabbinic
indoctrination, they are fanatics,
parasitic in their economics and
dishonest in their
dealings." - Steven E. Aschheim, Chair of European Studies Hebrew
University
If anyone has any question as to how non-Talmudists
would be treated in a world controlled by Talmudists one has only to look to
Gaza!

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a new religious
ideology to which its author adheres. The author feels that the falsification
of reality outside personal experience has created a populace unable to discern
propaganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an
international corporate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt
version of reality on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any
group refuses to tolerate religious practices, religious beliefs or persons due
to their religious ideology. This web site marks the founding of the religion
aptly named The Truth of the Way of Life - a rational religion based on reason
which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no
church buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to
develop a personal relation with God through the pursuit of the knowledge of
reality in the hope of curing the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the
human spirit. The tenets of The Truth of the Way of Life are spelled out in
detail on this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to
their religious beliefs in America is considered a hate
crime.
This web site in no way condones violence. To the contrary
the intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the
international corporate cartels desire to control the human race. The
international corporate cartel already controls the world central banking
system, mass media worldwide, the industrial military entertainment complex of
America and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the elevation of
self-centered behavior and the destruction of global ecosystems. Civilization
is based on cooperation. Cooperation does not occur at the point of a
gun.
American social mores and values have declined precipitously over
the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more
power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general
through mass media by pressing emotional buttons which have been preprogrammed
into the population through prior mass media psychological operations. The
results have been the destruction of the family and the destruction of social
structures that do not adhere to the corrupt international elites vision of a
perfect world. Through distraction and coercion the direction of thought of the
bulk of the population has been directed toward solutions proposed by the
corrupt international elite that further consolidates their power and which
further their purposes.
