This is not the 20^th century. We don’t have all the time in the world. These people aren’t playing games and they don’t stop.

We have to work as a goal, towards the real problem we are dealing with. We must start putting our energies towards the Muslims in these conflicts. We must figure out exactly how wide the problems are. We can head this all off, but someone has to get on the ball.

I will guarantee you that all of these conflicts are God based. They are once again due to religion. To be more specific it is the Muslim countries wanting once again to take back control of their lands.

 They are fighting because they want the Christians out of their borders and countries. Just look all over Indonesia as we discussed.

 Look at Africa, another hot spot. Not only did we arbitrarily reestablish their borders after colonization. They are all in poverty and they all involve Muslims on one or even both ends of the conflict.

 As we have discussed, these people can’t even tolerate each other. Once they are done with us there will not be an end to it as some might think. They will just turn on each other.

Right now It appears that all the on going new conflicts can be blamed on and narrowed down to one word. As we explained and talked about in detail, no one today or in the history of civilization even knows if he exists. We are of course talking about God.

 We have talked about the many unexplained mysteries of the world. Many of these have been attributed to unknown civilizations and forgotten knowledge. We don’t even have the technology today, to duplicate some of these feats.

Excuse me but isn’t this World War Three? The entire world appears to be in conflict. I am reading a book called, “World Conflict”, By Steven Strauss. Let me give you some quotes.

 Some are from World Leaders that will illustrate just how, not with it, these people really are. They really don’t get it or do not want to admit it.

I’m in a section on war and poverty and listen to all this worthless garbage. Now this all sounds nice, expert, and what the people want to hear. But they unequivocally missed all the boats.

This is a larger part of why we have so many problems today. Now listen to some of this.

According to a report by Radio Free Europe journalist Anthony Georgieff, the center of War and Peace Research in Uppsala, Sweden issued a report that stated most conflicts today occur within a country’s own borders.

This conflicts with the past when wars were fought between different countries. This little bit of worthless information is just that. You just stop, learn what we have been saying, and look at all these conflicts in those terms.

These so called world leaders have got to see reality. They have to see what is really going on in order for us to successfully deal with this

. They have to take all these worthless, ridiculous figures and apply them in a helpful, useful, practical way. They must realize how many conflicts are involving Muslims.
 Look at all these conflicts, look at the Middle East. Look at Bosnia, look at Chechnya, you will find what we have been saying all along.

*We are witnessing an attempted religious revival. It is normal, but certainly not healthy, not at this stage of civilization.

The Muslims have had enough, of what I at least have to agree with has been years of misuse and abuse of Muslim lands.

 One just has to look at the history of the last two hundred and forty years.

You can only come to the conclusion that, yes we have made many mistakes. As we said, this by no means calls for or justifies what is happening in the world today.

 All these coldly brutal and deadly activities many of them have resorted to must stop.

We discussed how the Europeans met in Germany and carved up Africa between them. However, in reality that was only a small part of what they did.

 The European powers colonized one Islamic country after the other. They did this with absolute and total disregard for the population as was the way years ago.

 This was done not because they were Muslims. This was done because they wanted the riches these lands added to their growing needs and industries.

France occupied Algeria in 1830; Britain occupied Aden nine years later. Then they occupied Tunisia in 1881 and Egypt in 1882. The next victim was the Sudan in 1889. This was followed by Libya and Morocco in 1912.

 In 1915 the territories of the Ottoman Empire were split up. This was done as a reward for their siding with Germany during WW2. Ottoman Empire or Turkish Empire lands, covered Southwestern Asia, Northeastern Africa, and southeastern Europe.

This division was between France and Britain in anticipation of victory. After the war Britain and France set up protectorates and mandates in Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq, and Transjordan.

This was felt as outrage since the European powers had promised the Arab provinces of the Ottoman Empire their independence.

 That one little action has to have added a lot of animosity to an already seething hatred for the West. Life Today The Real Story "2005"

They just don’t get it, it’s sickening. Kofi Anan once said, regardless of whether the inequality is due to ethnicity, national identity, or economic class, it tends to be reflected in unequal access to political power, no sh*! Sherlock.

 Well, that sounds good to your average ignoramus, or politician, but it is way off and dead wrong again. We just have to wake up. If any of these so called world leaders are going to be able to pull it together and help the world they have got to see reality.

 They have to, if any of these conflict burdened, war ravaged starving countries are to be helped. They first have to see and acknowledge what is really going on here.

 They just don’t seem to want to admit to it or they just really don’t get it. We must as a world, be able to focus our good intentions on the right area so we can remedy the situation.

According to the United Nations another factor that fuels the fires of violent conflict today is the disturbing rise in ethnic politics. They just got through saying that the majority is not due to ethnicity.

 Isn’t religion ethnic? Didn’t they just get through saying that ethnic politics are fueling the fires? I think they are all too confused and overwhelmed. Why don’t they just think one step further and find out or just tell the world what role religion plays in all this.

 They will find out that yes, the countries are poor. One race or the other is desiring to usurp authority and take it over. Even from other Muslims, for their own faction or tribe.

Unequivocally you will find that there are Muslims on one side or the other, or both, of every single conflict.

This is not a small ordeal we face; it is time you are made aware of the gravity of what is ahead. This is not a few thousand Islamists we are dealing with, as we’ve been told.

This is an attempted resurgence involving millions of Muslims with a lot more to come. This is occurring on every level of society and it seems in every country. Not by everyone, but it’s early yet.

 I have firm confidence that what we are embarking on is not good, and can be circumvented; we have just, and simply, to focus our attentions on the right problem. We can prevent this and regardless, we will prevail.

As we have illustrated, the entire world seems to be in conflict. We have, call them what you want, religious or ethnic, wars going on all over the entire world. Make no mistake about it, this is all about God.

 Self admittedly there is not a person in the world who can with firm conviction even talk about him by name. We do not know in any capacity if he is still around. No one even knows if he exists.

 Yet we continue to fight and kill in his supposed interests. These people are not doing this to recover a country for the people, or for their life.

Their government, their interests are for Islam and Islam only. Not all of Islam only their idea of Islam, They do not even want other Muslims involved or around. This cannot be tolerated, accepted, or allowed.

 Leaders must recognize and admit what is going on today and take appropriate action. Sadly enough this is yet to be done.

 As we said, these people are doing all these wrongs supposedly in the name of Allah, Muhammad, and the Muslim people. As you know by now this is just a flat out lie. They have greatly hurt the Muslim cause.

 They have betrayed the average Muslim. They have turned their backs on the very person whose name and beliefs they are supposed to be defending. If he was to be if alive today he would put them out himself.

This is not the 20^th century. We don’t have all the time in the world. These people aren’t playing games and they don’t stop. We have to work as a goal, towards the real problem we are dealing with.

 We must start putting our energies towards the Muslims in these conflicts. We must figure out exactly how wide the problems are. We can head this all off, but someone has to get on the ball.

I will guarantee you that all of these conflicts are God based. They are once again due to religion. To be more specific it is the Muslim countries wanting once again to take back control of their lands.

                                    Life today the Real Story written by James m. Joiner 2005
                                              awesome insight,  Never  published, be the one

Don’t you agree that it is time for us to realize, as a Nation, what is really happening. Everyone has to be made to realize what is really going on in the world today. Just look at the middle east and not just Syria!

 With the exception of the age old adversaries every single one of the wars and conflict going on today has to do with the Muslims. Good or bad, whatever side they’re on, they are involved. We have got to seriously deal with this or it is only going to get worse.

All the conflicts, yeah, speaking of that, didn’t we as almost a single unified Alliance of all free civilized Nations, declare war on the terrorists and terror? Wasn’t it the terrorists, Al Qaeda that declared war on us, the United States, and the west?

 Aren’t all those conflicts, other than the established ones, involving Muslims, or Muslims against Christians?

 Look at the Middle East, Africa, and Indonesia. I have heard that at any given time 33% of the world is in conflict. I continue to say it, bar none that I can see, leaders, media, governments, they don’t get it. They are looking at and concerning themselves with the wrong thing.

They to a person just don’t get it, or they don’t want us to know. It would be nice to see some on the ball frankness.

It isn’t necessary to go beyond the borders any more. As far as they, (Muslims), are concerned, the enemy is within. Most often this happens to be Christian members of their own country. However they can also be fellow Muslims of another sect. They don’t even like each other.

Something is definitely wrong with this picture. They want leadership of their countries and the world, back. They will not settle for anything less. I will guarantee you that would only be the beginning if they did.

In this book the so called experts go on to say with a straight face, and I quote, “what is more interesting is that 80% of the wars today are fought because of poverty.

They go on to say that poorer countries were found to be at greater risk of war than their richer neighbors. Indeed, most of the wars were fought by countries with severe economic problems; I mean come on get with it.

Man when are we going to wake up and get with it, of course 80% of the wars are now fought behind their own borders. Of course 30% of the wars are fought in poverty stricken countries. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon, politician, world leader, or so called expert. Just a little bit of common sense and insight, which none of these people seem to possess.

They just don’t get it; look at all these conflicts for what they really are first. Every single one of them involves Muslims.

Thirdly they go on to say that yes, ethnicity is still a factor but not as big a factor as you may believe. It is when ethnicity is tied into poverty that war results. In richer countries, these ethnic divides are more easily breached without violence and war. Boy, how far from reality can these supposed know it all's really be? They are just not waking up.

The so called experts have once again lumped all statistics and evidence into categories they are familiar with, but dead wrong. War was traditionally fought for the three reasons they stated, poverty and ethnicity as two, and the third they say, was lacking.

 They have to stop looking at things in conventional terms. There is a new variable thrown into the mix here.

 The sooner they wake up to it the quicker we’ll be able to remedy things. The three categories they covered just happened to perfectly describe the Muslim situation or do they not see that?

Kofi Anan’s take on today’s situation albeit, wrong again, is this. He acknowledges that poverty does play a role in many contemporary standoffs. He would like to see us shift our focus of attention to the lack of equality and power many domestic social groups face in the world today.

He feels that it is inequality rather than poverty that is the driving force for conflicts today. Here again is another person heard from who has the right problem but the wrong reason for it. Why don’t we just focus our attention on the real problem, the Muslim situation? Focus on that and we will be able to take care of our current and future problems.

They just don’t get it, it’s sickening. He goes on to say, regardless of whether the inequality is due to ethnicity, national identity, or economic class, it tends to be reflected in unequal access to political power, no sh*! Sherlock.

 Well, that sounds good to your average ignoramus, or politician, but it is way off and dead wrong again. We just have to wake up. If any of these so called world leaders are going to be able to pull it together and help the world they have got to see reality.

 They have to, if any of these conflict burdened, war ravaged starving countries are to be helped. They first have to see and acknowledge what is really going on here. They just don’t seem to want to admit to it or they just really don’t get it. We must as a world, be able to focus our good intentions on the right area so we can remedy the situation.Life Today The Real Story "2005"

Wow, I’ve been looking to talk about some other areas of the world where we were having problems and why but this really surprised me.

I just can’t believe the countries and lands that are in contention today: Except for one of the on going conflicts I think it‘s fair to say that the Muslims are involved in one way or the other, with the vast majority of them.

 What does not concern God and the Muslims still involves Religion; every single conflict involves religion in one capacity or the other. The other reasons for war seem to be trumped by what is happening with the Muslims. I can’t believe no one has put two and two together yet.

There does not seem to be anything but Religious concerns right now. Normally a country may feel a need to go to war for any number of reasons. These include but are not limited to boundary disagreements, ethnic reasons, and the big one, religion.

 I know the world doesn’t seem to want to admit it, but aren’t we fighting in the Middle East. Africa is tearing itself apart. Europe seems to be coming apart at the seams, with Kosovo and Serbia, etc. isn’t Russia having problems with Chechnya and others?

In Indonesia it is Muslim against Christian. They don’t understand why, when these people have lived happily side by side for years. I just don’t understand how they don’t understand.

I’ll tell you why, we have been trying to get heard for quite a while now. There is a lot more happening than authorities know or want to admit.

 This is not simply a war against a minority of extremists. This is a war against Islamic Nations as a whole. This is the time, and we just have to realize the gravity of the situation we are facing. These people want there Nations back.

 They don’t care who they have to kill, or alienate. This is a world insurrection of Islam; let’s call a spade a spade.

This isn’t something minor or insignificant as we are being told. We are living through a world movement, a renaissance type period.

The Muslims themselves are stretching their muscles. They are reasserting themselves. Muslims are fighting Christians all over the world. Can’t we see it? Look at the Moluccas, Papua, and the Spice Islands. Can’t we see what’s happening?

 This is not just a few, or a few thousand, or a few hundred thousand or I suspect, even a few million. This is well documented all over the world. This is the reassertion of Muslim values, and it isn’t just a small movement.

The Koran tells them they may not begin hostilities. It does tell them that they may fight in self defense or in order to defend decent values. This is right out of the Koran.

 As we said, the scary part is that Muhammad and the Koran leave it once again to the people to interpret this for themselves. This self interpretation enables them as Muslims to justify any horrendous activities.

 However, the Koran would never allow or give credence to what these Islamists are doing to their religion, God, and Prophet Muhammad. Even if it is in an attempt to right past wrongs, it is not condoned.

They are going against everything he professed and believed in. These Islamists are not furthering the cause of the Muslim people but are worsening their cause.

 Maybe that is their goal to bring about the end called for in the Bible, Koran, and Torah.

We, it seems have in the past inadvertently done great injustices to the Muslim people. They are not alone, and even have some western countries that have also been wronged in the past for company.

 What we can’t afford today especially is to all of a sudden have people think that they are going to take matters into their own hands and rectify the situation.

With civilization on this planet now evolved to the degree we have, we cannot absorb all the negative repercussions of what is about to be heaped on it.

Colonialism it seems is turning out to be the single, largest, all encompassing problem for the civilized world.

As we have illustrated and talked about this was occurring in the 17^th, 18^th, 19^th, and even 20^th centuries. When we were forming our country the European Nations were busy preparing the foundation for Industrialization.

Hopefully the end result of all this would be the prosperity of the European people.

They indulged in taking any country they deemed to be less than civilized. They annexed the lands, subjugated the natives. They set about taking from these lands whatever it was they wanted.

 The Europeans felt that they were doing these countries a favor just by being there. They were putting the people to work, even though they didn’t pay them accordingly. What they thought they were doing was bettering the people.

 They thought the natives would be better off by experiencing the superior European intellect. What they did next was what caused our biggest troubles. They gave them their freedom.

 It was the way they did it that set in motion dissent amongst the natives. This dissent has never abided and for the foreseeable future, never will.

Every single one of these countries has historically gotten along very well as both Muslim and Christian. But now all of a sudden they don’t. Officials aren’t quite sure why, we can tell you why. This so called war on terrorism is more realistically called a war against Islam itself, why can’t we see it.

Let us discuss the disintegration of Europe as we have known it in modern times. This is the final marker and warning to the western world as to what is happening right under their very noses.

 It is a little troublesome as it seems that the very countries that started industrialization and colonialism are now being torn asunder.

This is happening to them as they have done in the past with all the small once autonomous Muslim countries. They want their autonomy once again. It is the ultimate irony and the expected result in the end.

Long term European Affairs

Cyprus with a long affair between Turkey and Greece over who Cyprus belongs to seems to have no end in sight. Cyprus is an island republic off the coast of Turkey in the Mediterranean. They were given their Independence from England in 1961. You have to wonder if we can ever work this one out either.

The Basque region wants out of Spain. His is another long term conflict heard from. This is despite what the Spanish have felt and done since the Madrid train bombings. The Spanish have just increased and prolonged their problems since they still do not know how to solve this never ending long term dilemma.

Armenia vs. Azerbaijan

Slovenia Croatia Dagestan

Serbia Kosovo Chechnya

Bosnia * New and ongoing – the Ukraine Hungary

There are now 15 countries with more looking for autonomy every time. If there is an election or outcome a certain tribe faction or sect doesn’t like, there will be a conflict.

 This is a constantly evolving situation. In light of the vast number of potentially deadly weapons floating around over there it bears close watching and monitoring.
  Don’t you agree that it is time for us to realize as a Nation and a world what is really happening. Everyone has to be made to realize what is really going on in the world today.

 With the exception of the age old adversaries every single one of the wars and conflict going on today has to do with the Muslims. Good or bad, whatever side they’re on, they are involved. We have got to seriously deal with this or it is only going to get worse.

All the conflicts, yeah, speaking of that, didn’t we as almost a single unified Alliance of all free civilized Nations, declare war on the terrorists and terror?

 Wasn’t it the terrorists, Al Quaeda that declared war on us, the United States, and the west? Aren’t all those conflicts, other than the established ones, involving Muslims, or Muslims against Christians?

Look at the Middle East, Africa, and Indonesia. I have heard that at any given time 33% of the world is in conflict. .

I continue to say it, bar none that I can see, leaders, media, governments, they don’t get it. They are looking at and concerning themselves with the wrong thing. They to a person just don’t get it, or they don’t want us to know. It would be nice to see some on the ball frankness. Life Today The Real Story "2005"

                                    Life today the Real Story written by James m. Joiner 2005
                                              awesome insight,  Never  published, be the one


What most people fail to realize, is that another perfectly natural and cyclical occurrence, is unfolding right now. It is one, of many that is happening all at the same time. One is feeding the other and God willing, everything will work out favorably. 

 
Once again, Christians and Jews, due to the increasing unease about their surroundings are beginning to look to God for answers.

 
 All the bombings, killings, terrorism, and many, many, problems in our Governments have become too much for most to bear alone.

 
 This is especially true in the U.S. with a multitude of systematic moral inequities right here at home. This is due in large part to our moral degradation and our perceived inability to do the right thing. People are more and more turning back to the one true God in ever increasing numbers or turning away all together.

 
Shortly, further on in this discussion I am going to blow your collective minds away. We will be pointing out something that has happened to both the Jews, and the Christians, and is now happening to the Muslims.

 
Yes, what we are conveniently calling terrorism is once again, a natural occurrence. The big problem now is that the shoe is on the other foot. With the stakes certainly being much higher, and the weapons and means, a lot more violent we cannot allow this to happen.

 
 I believe it would be more accurate and in line with mans cyclical history to stop calling the blight facing the entire world today terrorism. It would be more accurate if we started to start calling it what it really is, an”Islamist Jihad”.

 
As we discussed, with the early belief that spirits resided in naturally beautiful places in nature. Civilized man has always sought to get as close to nature as he could. 

 
Man has always believed that this would bring him closer to God. This, as my fellow Americans well know, is how Native Americans felt.

 
This in particular is what makes this Islamist Jihad so particularly disturbing. It’s not that they don’t care about human life, including their own. It is that they are willing to destroy the very planet that they believe God created for them.

 
 They do this with the absolutely ridiculous belief that they are going to be rewarded once they die and go to heave. The unbelievable pert of this is that they expect 42 virgins, and rivers of gold, or something like that.

 
Come on people of the world, this planet, this world, this land, is all we are going to get. For the sake of the generations to follow us, we must take care of this.

 
 That includes helping the families left behind by the Islamists. They more often than not are left morally and financially destitute. The Islamists leave behind, ruins, and very often, land that is no longer viable for human habitation.

  We have mentioned that man has always sought out his own roll in life on this planet. 

 
It must also be noted that in forming the three great modern religions he has assigned natural earthly phenomena, stratospheric positions in all 3 faiths, (Muslim, Christian, and Jewish). 

 
This is not just another coincidence. All those of faith, non faith or believer on any kind of level all believe in the natural earthly phenomena.

 
 We are one with the earth and the universe and everyone regardless of their belief shares this belief.

 
The Bible, the Torah, and Koran, can each be read by hundreds of people, and every one of these people would leave with a different understanding.

 
 This is not only condoned but self interpretation is encouraged. This is so you can find the answers to your questions and satisfy your personal needs.

 
 The 3 holy books sometimes leave questions unaddressed, unanswered, and purposely vague, as religious leaders do not have the answers themselves.

 
All 3 religions have a heaven which of course is the universe around us. They all have a hell, which only makes sense, is a depiction of the earth’s core. I believe, as many of you do that there is a purgatory and we the living, are in it right now.
 What stinks is that due to our own negligence and irresponsibility we are creating a living hell on earth.   Life Today The Real Story "2005"

Belief in God, believe it or not, started around fourteen thousand years ago. I know myself, I was always led to believe, and inclined to think that belief in God was started by the Jews.

I was led to believe that they had a patent on God and everyone else was wasting their time, wrong. Years ago people believed spirits resided, as many of us still do, in places and things such as rocks, mountains, plants, and other beautiful objects of nature.

The Arabs called this Jinn, various tribes around the world knew this as Manna, and Latin’s, as Numina. All religions revered nature as being close to God.

Atheists, which are looked down upon by the three great religions, also believe in this and revere nature. So you see, you are all right, and just differ in the respect that atheists do not feel the need to carry knowledge any further as some of us do.

 It all depends on how much of an explanation one needs to understand his or her role on the planet and in life.

 Depending on a persons needs they will go to, and find what they need in many of various religions. Atheists believe that life on this planet is a very rare but natural occurrence, as naturalist, evolutionist, and many of us others do.

Some people only have a need to carry the process further and assign these creations to the doings of a God, and further, to a vision by an identified prophet.

* At one point in time every religious faith including, Jews, Muslims, and especially Christians, were thought of as atheists. This was because their beliefs did not agree with existing beliefs in practice at the time.

Nonbelievers, (atheists), until very recently, were very rare. During Abraham’s, time, virtually everyone believed.
 With the advent of ever improving fields of science being able to explain many of the great mysteries of the world many people all over the world have of late, been moving away from their belief in the one God.

What most people fail to realize, is that another perfectly natural and cyclical occurrence, is unfolding right now. It is one, of many that is happening all at the same time.

 One is feeding the other and God willing, everything will work out favorably.

Once again, Christians and Jews, due to the increasing unease about their surroundings are beginning to look to God for answers.

                                             awesome insight,  Never  published, be the one


Okay people, hold on, and we’ll discuss what is really happening in the world today. I am only amazed, that you have an average American as the source, wow, only in America.

Men and women have been worshiping Gods in one form or the other since humans first began to think of their environment. From reading the most knowledgeable book on the history of God I have ever read, (KAREN Armstrong’s, “A history of God”).

 I have learned some amazing facts. Many of which I am sure, were not even intended. I can only hope, and believe I have, that I do her justice. In researching what I have always been told, are my own off the wall theories. I have found that this subject, to my astonishment is 100% my own original thought, worked out over 40 years.

I was quite astonished to find that I was not as off the wall as I was told I was all those years. My theories were reaffirmed by almost every one of the greatest minds the world has ever known as you will learn.

 So I don’t know, maybe my thoughts are off the wall but I seem to have some awful good company. When man first started religious belief, and worshiping the Gods he did, there was, of course no organization to it.

There was only a desire to understand and justify mans role amongst the tremendously powerful, complex, terrifying, and mysterious environment in which they existed.

Religion was seen as a way to find meaning, in mans role and value, in this environment, and life. There were no priests, mullahs, or religious leaders. There was only man, with the evolution of the process of curiosity.

 Man was trying to understand his role in this awesome world he found himself in. This reaction to his surroundings was completely natural.

You will see that it is continued, and is a big part of the problem facing us, in all countries today. God is simply, a reaction to mans problems, needs, and desires. As thus, God and religion will undergo a transformation throughout history.

 This occurs as mans needs change with the environment he finds himself in, sound familiar. It is more important for a specific idea of God to fill the need for a particular time, purpose, and circumstances, than it is for it to be logically sound. As soon as mans idea of God stops fitting the purpose for which it was chosen, it will be changed, often for something very different.

This is also one of the events being experienced today. This is happening in many societies and particularly in the Catholic Church in America.

 This idea of change did not bother believers in the one God. This was because they knew that their ideas of God were not etched in stone. In fact, they have been changed many times over the years by the Muslims, Christians, and most surprisingly, the Jews.

 I personally was under the impression that they were Gods chosen people. As such, they were very staunch in what God they prayed to. This is not true, they too as we will discuss, have changed their God to fit their purpose more than the other two great religions.

Man is not so sure about the God they pray to. Jews are forbidden to even pronounce the name of God, and Muslims cannot even try to depict God in visual imagery. Further on in the discussion

 I will make you see that there is a God. It is absolutely amazing, but, the Muslims are right, the Christians are right, and the Jews are right. Atheists, Buddhist, all of you, you are all right, and it is amazingly simple.

You will all see the truth, and you only differ in the way you choose to practice your belief, it is only common sense.

 All talk of God is overwhelming to most, in their attempt to express reality. But, the God of the Jews, Muslims, and Christians is a God that by all accounts, speaks, and he does. His spoken word is of the utmost importance, and has shaped the history of human culture.

Belief in God, believe it or not, started around fourteen thousand years ago. I know myself, I was always led to believe, and inclined to think that belief in God was started by the Jews.

 I was led to believe that they had a patent on God and everyone else was wasting their time, wrong!

 Years ago people believed spirits resided, as many of us still do, in places and things such as rocks, mountains, plants, and other beautiful objects of nature. I am sure every Religion in the world feels that at times. Life Today The Real Story "2005"

The new born again Christianity that was beginning to appear in the west during the 17^th and 18^th centuries was frequently unhealthy. It was often characterized by violent and dangerous emotions and reversals. We can see this in the wave of religious fervour known as the Great Awakening that swept through New England during the 1730s.

This was inspired by the evangelical preaching of George Whitfield a colleague of the Wesley’s and the sermons of Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758). Edwards held his sermons in Northampton Connecticut. He described his parishioners there as being nothing out of the ordinary; they were sober, orderly, and good, but lacking in religious fervour.

They were no better or worse than the men and women living in the other colonies. That was until in 1734 when two young people died shockingly sudden deaths. This all changed suddenly as the people were real nervous and concerned.

 This was reinforced by Edwards himself who was known for his hellfire and brimstone sermons. Edwards plunged the town into a frenzy of religious fervor. People could talk of nothing but religion; they even stopped working in order to spend the entire day reading the Bible.

In about 6 months there had been around 300 born again conversions in Northampton alone. They came from all classes of society. Edwards saw this craze as the direct work of God himself.

He meant this quite literally as he repeatedly said that God seems to have gone out of his usual way of behaving in New England. He was real pleased to see that this was moving the people in a most marvelous and miraculous manner.

It must be said however, that the Holy Spirit sometimes manifested himself in some rather disturbing ways. People would sink into deep despair thinking that God would not save them.

 This would be followed right away with an equally extreme feeling of elation when they all of a sudden felt saved. They would break out with laughter while weeping and tears streaming down their faces at the same time.

Sometimes they would cry out in a loud voice expressing their love for God. We are obviously far from the calm control that was supposed to be the hallmark of true enlightenment.

These intensely emotional mood swings have continued to be the hallmark of religious revival in America. It was a rebirth attended by violent swings from anger and fear to instantaneous joy and laughter. This was a new version of the western struggle with God. The awakening eventually spread like wild fire to encompass all of the colonies. Eventually emotions died down until after a couple of years things were pretty much back to normal.

The new birth of the awakening was an evangelical version of the enlightenments ideal of the pursuit of happiness. It represented an existential liberation. It liberated the people from a world in which everything awakens powerful feelings of apprehension.

The awakening occurred in the poorer colonies where people had few expectations of happiness in the world. This happened despite the hopes of the sophisticated enlightenment. The experience of being born again resulted in a feeling of joy.

 There was a perception of beauty that was quite different from any natural sensation. Therefore, during the awakening a God experience had made the enlightenment of the new world available to the poor as well as the successful people in the colonies.

The God of Jonathan Edwards also contributed to the revolutionary enthusiasm of 1775. In the eyes of the revivalists England had lost the new light that had shown so brightly during the puritan revolution.

 To them England now seemed decadent and regressive. It was Edwards and his colleagues who led Americans of the lower classes to take the first steps toward revolution.

 Edwards felt that human effort would hasten the coming of God’s kingdom. He believed that this was attainable and imminent in the new world.

From the outset I must say my intention of going through the period of the enlightenment was to show us exactly what the mood and level of morality was during the era of the founding of our country. It absolutely backs up what we found in book one.

However I am very surprised to find that it was the Colonists of the lower classes who led the way in the revolution. They had experienced

the enlightenment and its revival of morality and were driven to see the birth of a righteous nation. It was their religious fervor that actually took the first steps toward revolution.

The awakening itself made people feel that the process of redemption as described in the Bible had already begun. God, the people felt, was completely and firmly committed to the revolution. Edwards gave the Trinity a political interpretation.

 The Son “was the deity generated by Gods understanding, and thus the blueprint for the new Commonwealth. The spirit, “the deity subsisting in act”, was the force that would accomplish this master plan in time.

In the new world of America, God would thus be able to contemplate his own actions on earth. The society would express the Excellencies of God himself.

The New England would be a shining city on the hill. It would be a light unto the Gentiles. It would shine with a reflection of the glory of God upon it which shall be attractive and ravishing to all.

The God of Jonathan Edwards would be incarnated in the Commonwealth, and Christ was seen as being embodied in a good society.

A new type of religious devotion emerged alongside the rationalism of enlightenment; it was often referred to as the religion of the heart. This was because it was centered in the heart not the head. It urged people to abandon external proofs, and authorities. It urged people to discover the God that was in the heart of everyone.

John Wesley, (1703-1791), the founder of the Methodist Religion, had always been a fervent Christian. When he was a fellow at Lincoln College, Oxford, he and his brother Charles started a society known as, The Holy Club. It was strong on method and discipline. so its members became known as Methodists.

 In 1735 John and Charles sailed to the colony of Georgia in America as missionaries. John however returned to England disconsolate two years later. This was because he felt he needed converting himself.

 During the voyage home he was impressed by some missionaries of the Moravian sect. He was impressed with the fact that they avoided all doctrine. He was agreeable to the thought that religion was simply an affair of the heart.

John underwent a conversion experience during a Moravian meeting. His conversion convinced him that he had received a direct mission from God. He believed that he had to preach this new kind of Christianity throughout England.

 The experience of being born again was crucial. It was absolutely necessary to experience God continually breathing on the human soul. Experiencing God would fill the Christian with a continual, thankful Love of God. This was consciously felt. Ultimately this made it natural, and even necessary to love every child of God with kindness and gentleness.

Doctrines about God they felt, were useless and could be damaging. The psychological effect of Christ’s words on the believer was the best proof of the truth of Religion. An emotional experience of religion was the only proof of genuine faith and hence of salvation. But as we know today, this mysticism can be dangerous.

Mystics have always expressed the perils of the spiritual paths and warned against hysteria; peace and tranquility were the signs of true mysticism. This born again Christianity could produce frenzied behavior.

The American scholar, Albert C. Outler points out that the new religion of the heart and the rationalism of the enlightenment was both antiestablishment. They both mistrusted external authority. Rationalism and the enlightenment both allied themselves with the modernists against the ancients. They both shared a hatred of inhumanity, and an enthusiasm for philanthropy.

It seems that a radical religious devotion actually paved the way for the ideals of the enlightenment to take root among Jews as well as Christians.

 Many of these sects seemed to respond to the immense changes of the period by violating religious taboos. Some even appeared blasphemous. Of course some were dubbed atheistic.

 Puritans had left England and settled in New England during the 1620s. This as we know, was to pursue their religion in peace. This time also brought about the first Quakers.

Quakers preached that all men and women could approach God directly. There was an inner light within every person that only has to be discovered and nurtured.

Once it had been discovered and nurtured everybody, regardless of class or stature, could achieve salvation here on earth. They also preached pacifism and nonviolence.  Life Today The Real Story "2005"

Religion and the lies we call History, final installment

Beware!

                                               Chapter 4 & 5 of Life today the Real Story

As we discussed, Religious resurgence happens at a time of political insecurity when people are haunted by the fear of their own destruction. As we all know, all over the world we are experiencing these fears today with war all over the world to one degree or the other. 

It is horrible what the Islamists are doing to the entire world. It is for this reason that Religion is experiencing a new lease on life among Jews, Christians, and Muslims, including the Religion of Atheism.

A personal God like Yahweh can be manipulated to shore up ones beleaguered emotions. When one conception of God has ceased to have meaning or relevance it has quietly been discarded and replaced with a new ideology.

 Each generation must choose the image of God that works for them. It is time that we realized, and settled on ours.

When we started researching this book, I was very disturbed to start hearing about all these different Gods that were believed in and prayed to. Like most of you I imagine, I was taught that there was a God and grew up believing that.

 I have read the Bible off and on over the years. In light of this it surprises me that for some reason these references to many different gods and goddesses have somehow gotten by me.

 Either that or because of the blinders you inevitably wear when you are looking at scripture through the eyes of any given religion. As a result you have a tendency to see things the way they portray them. 

Reading now with a totally unbiased viewpoint the Old Testament, the Chariots of the Gods, along with a History of God in all Religions, it tends to put an awful lot into perspective. Primarily I came to this conclusion; we as a people are lost.

 I can’t even fathom how we can read in the Bible of so many different Gods. We are told their names right in the Bible. We learn of the fact that many of them have been believed. 

We also find that many have been worshiped over the years. They have been worshiped by both the Christians and the Jews. This while all the time we keep being told of one God. Somehow we don’t seem to question this as we rightly should.

Let alone the fact, this is in the Bible too, that they were flying around in what is obviously some kind of space ship. They were also breeding with earth women all over the world. There were also goddesses who bred with earth men and then went back to the stars. 

I was really disgruntled to pick up the fact that Lot committed incest with both of his daughters. On top of that the Bible still calls earth the center of the universe when we know it isn’t.

We have learned that we must know our past. It’s got to be our true past. We must do this right now while we are trying to deal with the many problems in the world today. I believe that it will not only shed light on many unanswered questions. It will also aid in resolving the problems we are experiencing right now with the Islamists.

Since doing this and reading the Bible in conjunction with the Chariots of the Gods and the History of God. I can now understand how the Bible can continually reference many Gods without batting an eye or feeling the necessity to explain. 

* I for one believe there is much known that is being kept from us for one reason or the other. We have been visited from the heavens by many different Gods. This has happened at many different times, all over the world. That is why over the millennia man has had a choice of Gods to believe in. That is why the Gods were always killing off whole populations that didn’t agree with them. Beware!

Installment 9: Religion and the lies we call History

                                     
                                                 Chapter 4 & 5 of Life today the Real Story

Let’s discuss the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Genesis: 1-28. I just finished reading this for the umpteenth time trying to put into context the movie on this subject.

 I’m sure most of us have seen it many times. Obviously Lot was looked on with favor. Genesis 19:1-28 tells us how Lot was urgently warned to take his wife and daughters and flee the city. He was told that under no condition are any of you to turn around or you will die. They hastened him along as if they were on a schedule.

 They finally  had to help him on his way. His wife turned around out of curiosity of course and was turned to a pillar of salt.

Personally I found Genesis 19:30-38 to be particularly disturbing. Lot, after escaping, went up into the mountains and slept in a cave with his two daughters. His daughters plied him with wine and then one at a time spent the night with him. They did this so they could preserve the seed of their father.

The firstborn bore a son called Moab. Today he is known as the father of the Moabites. The younger also bore a son named Ben-mime. He grew up to become the father of the children of ammon unto this day. I find this disturbing because now it sounds like the Old Testament is advocating incest.

I wish scientists would test this area plus the sediment at the bottom of the Dead Sea. They should be checking for any signs of radioactive isotopes or radioactive traces in the sediment. It sounds to you once you read this epic that they were on a predetermined schedule.

 You come to this conclusion since they couldn’t look back for reasons of radiation fallout. I personally am not talking nuclear weapons. However, I am sure science could tell us exactly what was used. Is this another one of those ancient events where we don’t want to know the truth?

I was just reading Ezekiel and man, this does not sound like a forgiving understanding God to me. He obviously got joy in, and he bragged about, killing Jews. He did this while all along having no pity or mercy. He did this even while bringing famine to his people.

 Still in Ezekiel we read that those chariots of the Gods were even at the Garden of Eden. Now that really makes one suspicious of events, depicted at the Garden between Adam and Eve. Especially since, as it is depicted by the people it seems as though this event was supervised.

Still on the subject of Ezekiel we notice that there is a lot of talk in regards to these vehicles that God came down from heaven in. I thought he was God? He shouldn’t have needed a vehicle to travel around in.

 Witnesses then say behold, a whirlwind came out of the north a great cloud, and a fire unfolding itself, and brightness was about it, and out of the midst the color of amber and fire, came the likeness of 4 living creatures. What is this God didn’t travel alone? They had the likeness of a man and every one had four faces and four wings. Ezekiel gave precise details of the vehicle and its landing.

I won’t go into too much detail; it is in the Bible if you want to read further. His description was astonishingly good. To our present way of thinking what he was describing was like one of our lunar vehicles used today.

I’m really looking forward to discussing the Arc of the Covenant. This really amazed me. In Exodus 25:40 Moses was given by God exact instructions for building the Ark of the Covenant. The instructions were given down to the smallest detail so no mistakes would be made.

 The directions were given to the very inch. How and where rings and stave's were to be placed and from what alloy metals were to be made.

The instructions were meant to be followed out exactly as God wanted. He even warned Moses several times not to make any mistakes. He told Moses that no one should come close to the Ark of the Covenant. Even giving precise instructions as to the type of clothing that should be worn and the footwear that would be worn while transporting it.

 Then in Samuel 2, 6:2-7 David had the Arc of the Covenant moved and while moving it Uzzah accidentally grabbed it and fell dead on the spot as if struck by lightening.

Sounds like God struck him down because he did not follow his instructions implicitly. In reality, if we construct the Ark today using precisely the instructions handed down to Moses from God. What we would have is an electrical conductor capable of producing several hundred volts. Hmmmm, I know coincidence right? The story continues to take shape. Installment 10 tomorrow!

Not who but what is God? Installment 8, Religion and the lies we call History

                                                    
                                               Chapter 4 & 5 of Life today the Real Story

Continued from yesterdays  installment 7: These are items that have shown up virtually out of nowhere throughout ancient history .With incredible improvements inexplicably coming forth in technology and expertise.
Arch of the Covenant explained in the Bible is of special interest, anyway;

These have never been proven or adequately researched. Today we cannot reproduce some of these feats. To say God did it or the technology has been lost over time is no longer an adequate excuse. We have the technology now all we need is the collective desire to do the right thing.

I know it was suggested by Erich Von Daniken, but why don’t we test areas for radiation using special equipment, such as Tiahuanaco, Sacsahuaman, the Gobi desert, the legendary Sodom and Gomorrah area. I’m sure there are many others, or are we afraid of what we will find.

Cuneiform texts and tablets of Ur, (which, amongst all these other issues, I was able to find on line, so I know the information is available) are the oldest known books of mankind. They tell us without exception of Gods who rode in the heavens in ships.

 Even more disconcerting, is the story of Gods who came from the stars. They arrived possessing and displaying terrible weapons and then they just returned to space.

 I for one happen to believe these old books. I also believe in the true meanings in our Holy Scriptures. There can be nothing truer Just when are we going to be honest and face reality.

The subject of the Sumerians is quite questionable and interesting. However, we will talk about them only in regards to stars that they depicted in old tablets. The remarkable thing about these stars is that they were circled by planets.

 In Egypt and Iraq there were finds of cut crystal lenses that can only be made using cesium oxide. How did the Sumerians who lacked our ability to observe the heavens know that fixed stars had planets.

The remarkable thing to me about these ancient peoples is that they seemingly just showed up out of nowhere. No source that I have referenced including the dictionary can even identify these people. No one can even say where they came from. Let alone the fact that they brought with them technologies that still cannot be explained let alone understood or believed.

It is too much for coincidence that throughout ancient history, cultures kept cropping up with superior astronomical and building skills. This is too coincidental especially when they did not have any previous knowledge in these areas.

 In Lebanon there are glass like bits of rock called tektites, in which radioactive aluminum isotopes have been detected. Quite phenomenal to me was the discovery of electric dry batteries that work on the galvanic principle. They can be found at the Baghdad Museum. Let’s see them explain that one away.

There are many, many more unexplained impossibilities. Every one of them should make us curious and uneasy. We should be questioning what we have been fed for what appears to be misinformation for years.


*What I found disturbing was finding such things as the description of the Ark of the Covenant. In the Bible it was described as a truly wondrous thing that God gave meticulous instructions to have built. Only to say that when a man had touched it as God had told them not to do at all costs he would strike them dead, and did.

*This, and then to find out that if it was built today with the precise materials and methods listed in the Bible. What you have is an electrical conductor capable of discharging several hundred volts.

This amongst many scriptures that we have pointed out is in reality much too technically advanced and wide spread to just shrug off or dismiss as coincidence.

These unexplained items and events have made at least me, uneasy for years. Now at this important juncture of time, is the time to answer any and all unanswered questions. Our future might count on it.

 There are structures that whose history we study and revere, and we know that they were impossible to be made even today. Disregarding this we teach what is knowingly to experts, wrong.

 We do this just to give the people a history to believe in, this is wrong. We have got to correct our past right now. We must do this before we try and proceed any longer in the wrong direction.

Let us take a little time to cover some true facts directly from the Old Testament; this is of course, scripture followed by Christians and Jews. Some of these quotes you may find quite unsettling.

In Genesis 1:26 we learn that God said he was going to make man in his image after his image.
Genesis 6:1, 2 and it came to pass when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born to them. That the sons of God saw the daughters of men and they took them wives of all that they chose. Sounds like slavery to me.

 Genesis 6:4 there were giants in the earth in those days, and also after that when the sons of God came into the daughters of men, and they bore children to them.

It’s small wonder that there were giants on the earth in those days. These Gods were said to be 18 feet tall. By the way, what are Gods sons doing taking earth women? I guess he never did say how he was going to make them in his image.

 I thought according to what we as Christians and Jews were taught, that there was only one God. We have some important questions and facts to work through. They have never been adequately delved into for many reasons and misguided excuses. At this important juncture in our lives as civilization it behooves us to find out the facts. We can then get the story of our past straight so we can move into the future in the right direction.
The story is taking shape. Installment 9 tomorrow!

Not who but what is God? Installment 7, Religion and the lies we call History

                                                    Chapter 4 & 5 of Life today the Real Story


Continued from yesterdays  installment 6:   What would you say if there was an ancient calendar found that gave the equinoxes, astronomical seasons, the positions of the moon for every hour, also the movement of the moon, even going so far as to take the rotation of the earth into account.

This calendar exists and was found in the dry mud at Tiahuanaco. This is a city whose ruins are so ancient that when Francisco Pizarro questioned the Incas in 1532 about the ruins they said they were so ancient no one has any memory of seeing them when they weren’t in ruins.

 This is a disquieting find because it gives irrefutable facts and proves that whoever produced, devised, and more importantly to me, used this calendar had a much higher culture than ours.

Another amazing discovery was the great idol. This single block of red sandstone is longer than 24 feet and weighs 20 tons. It was found in the old temple.

 The contradiction here is between the superb quality and precision of hundreds of symbols that cover the idol in contrast to the primitive techniques used in making the building that houses it.

The symbols were given a closely reasoned interpretation in the book, “The Great Idol of Tiahuanaco”, by H. S. Bellamy and P. Allan. They concluded that the symbols record an enormous body of astronomical knowledge and are based, as a matter of fact, on a round earth.

They concluded that the record fits perfectly a theory published 5 years before the idol was even discovered.

This theory postulates that a satellite was captured by the earth. This does not mean that we physically captured a satellite that landed on the earth as you probably realize. But that it was pulled by the earth’s gravitational pull.
 
 As it was pulled towards the earth it slowed down the earths revolutions. The symbols on the idol exactly record the astronomical phenomena which back up this theory. This, at a time when the satellite was making 425 revolutions around the earth in a year of 288 days.

They were forced to conclude that the idol records the state of the heavens 27,000 years ago. The existence of such a sophisticated body of knowledge 27,000 years ago, demonstrated on both the idol and the calendar should be enough to make even the weak minded query.

There is just too much information here that man supposedly didn’t figure out for thousands more years.

One of the great Archaeological wonders of South America is the monolithic gate of the sun. This too is at Tiahuanaco. It is a giant sculpture standing nearly 10 feet high and 16 ½ feet wide carved out of a single block. The weight of this one block is more than 10 tons. There are 48 square figures in 3 rows flanking a being who represents a flying God.

That is the reason I am mentioning it here. It once again, now at the other end of the earth, tells of a golden spaceship that came from the stars. In it came a woman whose name was Oryana.

 She came to fulfill the task of becoming the great mother of the earth. Oryana had only four fingers that were webbed; she gave birth to 70 children then returned to the stars. To back this up, we do in fact find rock drawings of beings with four fingers.

Let’s talk a bit about another Inca wonder at Sacsahuaman. There were fantastic defense works there. They were only a few feet from present day Cuzco.

There are monolithic blocks weighing more than 100 tons. There are terrace walls more than 1,500 feet long and 54 feet wide. Believe it or not these feats are dwarfed by a quarried, finely worked, 20,000 ton stone block.

On the way back from the fortifications at Sacsahuaman in a crater on a mountainside just a few hundred yards away, the visitor comes across a monstrosity.

It is a single stone block the size of a four story house. It has been exquisitely crafted in the most craftsmen like way. It has steps and ramps and is adorned with holes and spirals. There can be no way the Incas themselves crafted this. We must remember that we are 13000 feet up. There is no way mere men could have accomplished this feat.

To make it even more impossible for the Incas to have worked this, the entire block is standing on its head. Still yet, not 900 yards away from this sight are more rock vitrifications, (melting of stone at high temperatures).

 We are told that this is because of glaciers. Yeh, a glacier melted and went in six different directions over an area of 18,000 square yards, let’s get real. Why is it that these rock vitrifications show up in one form or the other at every single ancient God mystery? Installment 8 tomorrow!
