Bold Evil Morons with power.

The false prophets of the fundamentalist and corporatist slave herds.

Morpheus: "It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth." Neo: "What truth?" Morpheus: "That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Born into a prison that you can not smell or taste or touch. A prison - for your mind. Unfortunately, no one can be told what the matrix is. You have to see it for yourself. This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends. You wake up in your bed and you believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember! All I am offering is the truth. Nothing more." -- From the 1999 movie, The Matrix.

Thought herding. A history of hate radio and television.

The GOP (Republican Party), in cooperation with the Paleo-Republicans of the Rabid Right and the Religious Right, has created, sponsored, and pushed through the vast majority of bad U.S. drug-war legislation. The rightist Taleban wing of the GOP leads. Democrats follow. Vote against the Republicans, the greatest of the political and spiritual evils in the USA today. The GOP is now led by rich, American fundamentalist, fanatic, finger-wagging, pontificating, hypocritical, pseudo-spiritual, false-prophet, bible-thumpers. Republican Senator John McCain told the truth about Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell during the 2000 U.S. Republican presidential primary!

Expose the GOP Jihad to the light of day, and those bible-thumping, pseudo-spiritual, blathering, sanctimonious hypocrites will scurry away.

The first alleged miracle of Jesus was to turn water into wine at a wedding. So much for prohibition! At most weddings since time immemorial they also play music and dance.

So the first miracle of Jesus celebrated sex, drugs (alcohol), and music. Rock on, dude!

Found the following floating around on the web:

--------

Dear Pat Robertson, Dr. Laura, Ralph Reed, Jerry Falwell, and fellow fundamentalists;

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your shows; and I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle; for example; I simply remind him that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate.

I do need some advice from you; however; regarding some of the specific laws and how to best follow them.

a) When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice; I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

b) I would like to sell my daughter into slavery; as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age; what do you think would be a fair price for her?

c) I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev. 15:19-24). The problem is; how do I tell? I have tried asking; but most women take offense.

d) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves; both male and female; provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans; but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

e) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

f) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an Abomination (Lev. 11:10); it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?

g) Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20; or is there some wiggle room here?

h) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed; including the hair around their temples; even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?

i) I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean; but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

j) My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field; as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread. (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? (Lev. 24:10-16). Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively; so I am confident you can help.

Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

- Your devoted disciple and adoring fan.

SPIRITUALITY and fundamentalist pseudo-spirituality. [TopLink]

Pat Robertson, the 700 Club, the Christian Coalition, Jerry Falwell, and crew not doing it for you anymore? Does Life Stink? Feel like your living in a dark place? Then pull your head out of your ass!

Straight from the mouth of Jesus, by way of the apostles Matthew and Thomas (theoretically since no one knows for sure who wrote the books of Matthew and Thomas, and no one knows how much Matthew and Thomas were edited by others during the first centuries after the death of Jesus and his first-hand followers). Here below is something Jesus supposedly said. Even these 2 famous verses below are too harsh. People can open or close themselves at will to the spiritual and/or extra-dimensional worlds. The point is that names, texts, and religions matter little compared to the spiritual and/or extra-dimensional worlds (whatever they are). The spiritual worlds may even be extra dimensions that will be totally explainable by science someday. It's all good.

It is Matthew 12:32 (from New American Standard version):
"And whoever shall speak a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in the age to come."


A similar version is found in the Gnostic gospel of the apostle Thomas:
"44. Jesus said, 'Whoever blasphemes against the Father will be forgiven, and whoever blasphemes against the son will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the holy spirit will not be forgiven, either on earth or in heaven.' "
http://www.gnosis.org/naghamm/gosthom.html ___
-- "The Nag Hammadi Library, a collection of thirteen ancient codices containing over fifty texts, was discovered in upper Egypt in 1945. This immensely important discovery includes a large number of primary Gnostic scriptures -- texts once thought to have been entirely destroyed during the early Christian struggle to define 'orthodoxy' -- scriptures such as the Gospel of Thomas, ..."

I interpret it boldly. One can say "Screw Jesus" and still choose to be connected to real spirituality and/or extra-dimensional worlds. The verse is a declaration of independence for so-called Christians, and an escape hatch from verbiage and the ramblings of any so-called "sacred text."

More on fundamentalist Christianity. [TopLink]

Many respected Biblical scholars analyze the Biblical texts to determine which verses and parts of verses were actually written or spoken by whom they are claimed to be written or spoken by. For example, much of what is claimed to come from Jesus CANNOT be historically proven. Some words have more historical proof than others.

This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "blind faith." It seems that in religion and in spirituality, as well as in politics and economics, people have to think and feel a little for themselves.

Organized religion often wants unthinking followers. The Christian establishment centuries ago did not even allow people to read the Bible in their own language, much less to question its authenticity. Ignorant fundamentalists today believe that every word in the Bible came from God, and should be followed literally.

Uta Ranke-Heinemann, chair of the history of religion at the University of Essen, Germany, in her 1992 book (1994 in English), Putting Away Childish Things, compiles evidence about what Jesus really said. What words did Jesus actually say? In her book Uta discusses Bultmann's work thusly (annotations are Uta's or Bultmann's). Emphasis added.

[Book quote begins] "Which words? Bultmann tried `to find the characteristic features of Jesus' preaching.' And he cites just a handful of sayings that we can assume really come from Jesus himself (`we can muster any sort of confidence in ascribing one of the logia [words] to Jesus only in a few cases'). Among these few words that he traces back to Jesus himself, Bultmann mentions Jesus' sayings in the Sermon on the Mount `about retaliation (Matt. 5:39b-41) and loving our enemies (Matt. 5:44-48). All these sayings contain something characteristic, something new, which transcends folk wisdom and folk piety, and yet is no more scribal-rabbinical than it is Jewish-apocalyptical. Thus here, if anywhere, the characteristic features of Jesus' preaching must be found' (Die Geschichte der synoptischen Tradition, p. 110)." [Book quote ends]

Thus, these possible words of Jesus do not justify "us against them" philosophies, such as many of the ideologies previously described, or the ideologies used in the Drug War. And you know, Jesus supposedly talked about visiting prisoners, too.

The spirit of compassion, empathy, and truth has nothing to do with mean-spirited posturing of fundamentalism - no matter what religion it is based on. Marijuana, mushrooms, etc. seem to facilitate a living spiritual connection for many, many people over many millennia. Real connections, no matter how facilitated, are much preferred to ideological religion.

Quotes of "Founding Fathers". [TopLink]

Emphasis added.

"The appropriation of funds of the United States for the use and support of religious societies, [is] contrary to the article of the Constitution which declares that 'Congress shall make no law respecting a religious establishment'"
-- James Madison, February 27, 1811.

"The United States is in no sense founded upon the Christian doctrine." 
-- George Washington.

"As the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion ..." 
-- from the Treaty of Tripoli, signed by John Adams, June 10, 1797. 

"Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God; that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship; that the legislative powers of the government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should 'make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,' thus building a wall of separation between church and State." 
-- Thomas Jefferson, in his historic Danbury letter, January 1, 1802.

"Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other Sects?" 
-- James Madison, in "Memorial and Remonstrance", 1785.

"The number, the industry, and the morality of the priesthood, and the devotion of the people have been manifestly increased by the total separation of church and state." 
-- James Madison, March 2, 1819.

"I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever in religion, in philosophy, in politics, or in anything else where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent."
-- Thomas Jefferson.

Hypocrite windbag Rush Limbaugh. [TopLink]

Typical moralizing hypocrite hate-radio pundit.

They don't call him "Rush" for nothing anymore. :)

*San Francisco Indymedia. Many Rush Limbaugh drug-war quotes. Hypocrite windbag! Audio and banners, too! With comments.
http://sf.indymedia.org/news/2003/10/1652834_comment.php

"What this says to me is that too many whites are getting away with drug use. Too many whites are getting away with drug sales. Too many whites are getting away with trafficking in this stuff. The answer to this disparity [crack versus powder cocaine sentencing] is not to start letting people out of jail because we're not putting others in jail who are breaking the law. The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them and send them up the river, too."
-- Rush Limbaugh show, Oct. 5, 1995.
