Jews and Christians Unite against the Empire of Neo-cons and `Christian` Zionists

In America, mis-informed Christians have been led by the Armageddon-based foreign-policy views of John Hagee, a false prophet who

is a 'Christian' Zionist who believes that the modern state of Israel is a divinely-ordained phenomenon and its establishment was essential to the Second Coming of Christ

Christian Zionists adhere to a misunderstanding of God as a Real Estate broker

opposes land-for-peace negotiations and have no eyes to see or hearts that bleed for their Palestinian Christian sisters and brothers enduring under a 40+ year military occupation

Many Christian Zionists fail at the commission to love all, and they seek to convert the Jews to their narrow small god or see them left behind in a nuclear holocaust that they erroneously believe they will be raptured/lifted out of.

"The Christian god can easily be pictured as virtually the same god as the many ancient gods of past civilizations. The Christian god is a three headed monster; cruel, vengeful and capricious. If one wishes to know more of this raging, three headed beast-like god, one only needs to look at the caliber of people who say they serve him. They are always of two classes: fools and hypocrites."
–- Thomas Jefferson, 1813

Is it even vaguely possible that some New Age Republican whore-beast of a false president could actually make Richard Nixon look like a liberal?
--Hunter S. Thompson

Get all the fools on your side and you can be elected to anything.

Isn't killing people in the name of God a pretty good definition of insanity?

It's downright amazing to see how many people have a direct line to God, yet all receive different messages.

Nothing is more dangerous than an armed religio-nut doing God's will.

The Spanish Inquisition, a centuries-long brutal effort by the Catholic Church to root out heresy, begun in 1481, was officially abolished by King Bonaparte. Spain’s King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella had chosen Catholicism as their religion and asked the pope to help purify the people of Spain. Many thousands were forced to convert, were tortured to encourage confession, or burned at the stake.

1978

Longest Walk, a peaceful transcontinental trek for Native American justice, which had begun with a few hundred departing Alcatraz Island, California, ended this day when they arrived in Washington, D.C. accompanied by 30,000 marchers.They were calling attention to the ongoing problems plaguing Indian communities

lack of jobs, housing, health care, as well as dozens of pieces of legislation before Congress canceling treaty obligations

Mistletoe held a special place because it is rooted above the ground in the bark of trees and was therefore not part of the Underworld.

The two birds represent the universal and individualized selves (true self and the ego).

The Islam you don't hear about

A trip to Indonesia — home to more than 200 million Muslims — reveals a faith that hardly resembles the one Americans have come to know in the blood-soaked years since 9/11.

After the 9/11 attacks, Americans put out a call for moderate Islam. Many Muslims answered that call, but few Americans heard them. Early this month, I traveled to Asia to see what Islam looks like on the ground there, and to listen to what Muslims themselves have to say about their religion, terrorism and the United States. What I found surprised me.

I went to Asia because Islam is by no means a Middle Eastern phenomenon. In fact, Asia is home to most of the world's Muslims. I focused on Indonesia because there are more Muslims in Indonesia than in any other country — roughly three times as many as in Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and Iraq combined.

Thomas Jefferson on Christianity and Religion

clipped by: AcesLucky
clipper's remarks: Thoughts of another founding father.

Clip Source: www.nobeliefs.com

Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law.

-Thomas Jefferson, letter to Dr. Thomas Cooper, February 10, 1814

What is it men cannot be made to believe!

-Thomas Jefferson to Richard Henry Lee, April 22, 1786. (on the British regarding America, but quoted here for its universal appeal.)

In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own.

-Thomas Jefferson, letter to Horatio G. Spafford, March 17, 1814

Man once surrendering his reason, has no remaining guard against absurdities the most monstrous, and like a ship without rudder, is the sport of every wind.

-Thomas Jefferson to James Smith, 1822.

And the day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the supreme being as his father in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerve in the brain of Jupiter.

-Thomas Jefferson, Letter to John Adams, April 11, 1823

In front of us this week was Blair with his increasingly maniacal eyes, poncing on about faith and God and religion, and I couldn't help reflecting on an excellent article by a colleague a few weeks ago who pointed out that God never seemed to give Blair advice. Like before April of 2003, couldn't He have just said, er, Tony, this Iraq invasion might not be a good idea

Blair's relationship with God is itself very odd

Christian Zionists who seek to de-Judaize Israel

Ex-missionary, Gavriel Sanders explains the hidden agenda on the part of SOME Christians' apparent support for Israel. He claims that while some Christian activists may donate to Israel-supporting causes, they may simultaneously be donating 4-5 fold more to efforts to convert Jewish souls (particularly Israeli Jews) away to Christianity.

[Video]

Gavriel Aryeh Sanders is a former missionary, and Evangelical Minister who converted to Orthodox Judaism.
Whilst learning Hebrew, he began questioning the narrative of the Christian Bible. His studies of Tanakh persuaded him to convert to Judaism

Nuns in aging study leaving their brains behind

After major Alzheimer's findings, research will end with final sacrifice

Twenty years ago, Sister Antoine Daniel, left, and Sister Alberta Sheridan were part of the 677 members of the School Sisters of Notre Dame who granted a young researcher's request to test them each year in order to track the progression of Alzheimer's disease and other age-related brain disorders

The 61 surviving nuns recently completed their last round of intellectual and physical tests for the Nun Study, one of the world's most comprehensive neurological research projects

When they die, their brains will be taken for further study, joining a collection of hundreds of other brains donated by the the nuns who died before them

"I've tried to do good while I'm alive, and I liked the idea that I could do something good after death,"

"I never minded having my brain checked out. It kept me out of trouble,"

Bomb hits Pakistan Danish embassy

The blast damaged the embassy and nearby vehicles

At least six people have been killed and 30 injured in a car bomb attack near the Danish embassy in the Pakistani capital Islamabad.

An embassy worker was among the dead and three were hurt but no Danish citizens were killed or injured

It was not clear who carried out the attack, as Pakistan's main militant group recently declared a ceasefire

Pakistan's top Taleban warlord Baitullah Mehsud is in peace talks with the authorities in an attempt to end fighting in the country's north-west.

It was like I was stuck between two speeding cars or between two moving trains - my door which was half-open slammed shut, everything moved

Asim Mukhtar, witness

Some Danish embassies around the world have been threatened since a cartoon depicting the Prophet Muhammad was reprinted in Danish newspapers in February

Mr Rasmussen said the bombing was an "attack against Denmark"

THE DEVIL’S DELUSION

Atheism and Its Scientific Pretensions

By David Berlinski

There is actually very little that is new in the so-called new atheism, whose claim to be based on science is as dubious today as it has ever been. A critique of the contemporary assault on religion is therefore much needed, and in The Devil’s Delusion, David Berlinski gives us a polemic that is powerful, erudite and often savagely funny. Berlinski - a mathematician and well-known critic of evolutionary theory, though not a proponent of “intelligent design” - has two targets in his sights: the conventional belief that religious thought is intrinsically superstitious and the materialist philosophy that Dawkins and his fellow “brights” - as members of the atheist community fondly describe themselves - mistakenly identify with science.

Conscience versus Belief and Dogma

clipper's remarks: Although those with deep beliefs and expressed values do any amazing job of advertising their compassion and calls for justice in the names of far away people, only conscience cam motivate love for the person next door. Who is my neighbour?

"I feel safer down here among the Christian savages along Narragansett Bay than I do among the savage Christians of Massachusetts Bay Colony," wrote Roger Williams, the founder of Rhode Island, shortly after his exile from polite society in 1635. Williams was one of the great heretics of what Europeans deemed a new world, not least because he bothered to learn the languages and customs of those he found already living there. He knew the Native Americans he admired were not Christians in any doctrinal sense, but he believed they lived according to a spirit of brotherly love more fully than the Puritans of Massachusetts from whom he'd fled.

Religion is a set of beliefs, ideas, rituals or customs. Conscience is more fundamental: the faculty of searching for the beliefs, ideas, rituals or customs that make up religion or, for that matter, the rejection of religion.

And he added: "As far as my experience goes, they are no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything 'chosen' about them."

Albert Einstein described belief in God as "childish superstition" and said Jews were not the chosen people

Einstein

As a Jew himself, Einstein said he had a great affinity with Jewish people but said they "have no different quality for me than all other people"

"The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish

"No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this,"

"For me the Jewish religion like all others is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions,"

"And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people."
