Neo-Nazis in,... Israel?

You read the headline and it doesn't seem believable, but it is. Of all things, Israeli police arrested a group of Neo-Nazis accused in a string of attacks on foreign workers, religious Jews, drug addicts and gays.

My Case against all Religions!

Anthropology | christianity | Islam | Judaism | Theology

Religion is defined as Judaism and the two cults which sprang from it, namely Islam and Christianity.

These belief systems have in their history been guilty of more crimes against humanity than all other belief systems put together.

Today they most often will retort with an illusive denial saying, “ This is not done any longer,� which is another blatant lie.

When Children are born, the common denominator which underlies the development of each and every one of them is the desire to belong. We see this go from a desire to belong to the family, to a desire to belong to the fellowship of children as the playmates emerge, the desire to belong to a community, a country, etc. as one emerges into adulthood.

Part Ten: The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom; Love.

christianity | Eternal L | Gnosis | History | Islam | Judaism | love | Religion | Theology | Theosophy | Truth

A great many people have attempted to explain love; love is called an emotion, and like jealousy and hate this is true. Love is however quite unlike either of these undesirable emotions.

Love can’t be observed through the physical sensory organs although we can see the physical manifestations when we see people who feel a great deal of love.

We smell the flowers and grasses in spring, and those pleasant odors have a lot in common with love. The naturally emitted odors from plants and trees are an integral part of them.

Part Nine: The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom; Bliss.

Bliss | christianity | Gnosis | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion | Theology | Truth

Our native state is truly bliss; the only stumbling block in our road is the perversion of the ancient Gnostic message which was created when Emperor Constantine called the first council. The lies and deceptions which were then formulated has been the true barrier to us creating a world which is truly civilized and filled with the love each and every one of us create as our natural force.

There have been a great many leaders of the cult which followed Constantine, many of whom were great persons, and it does take great people to find goodness in the perversion of humanity. The God of the Old Testament is an evil God, (read some of my other posts which describe him).

The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom; Part Eight: The Soul, 3.

christianity | Ete | Gnosis | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion | Theology | Theosophy | Truth

In our final analyzes we see the “Soul� is that which we really are; it is what worries about what happens to us after the body dies. The Soul is that part of us which can tell right from wrong, it is what rejoices when we witness happy children at play and cringes when we see injustice and cruelty.

The Soul is that part of us which assumes responsibility for crimes committed by others; we often witness people who clamor about the evil of man and cite an example of some criminal. That person is proving how good he or she is for by employing that example the person takes responsibility for things which happened apart from them in time and space.

The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom; Part Seven: The Soul, 2.

christianity | Ete | Gnosis | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion | Theology | Theosophy | Truth

Understanding the “soul� means we have to understand what the soul is and what we really are. People inherently know the difference between rights and wrong, what at times get altered is the definitions, children are subject to the definitions given them in the environment in which they are reared.
The earliest culture I have been able to study was the Sumerian, and their laws were on par with modern thought. The laws of Hammurabi which came later seemed polluted with deity worship. Ancient law saw the difference between animals and humans as the ability to tell right from wrong; the human who could not tell right from wrong was an animal!

Part Six: The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom; The Soul.

christianity | Ete | Gnosis | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion | Theology | Theosophy | Truth

The only problem we ever truly face, and which I am sure you will agree with this, is the death of the Soul. The Soul dies when it is made a part of the physical universe. When authorities professing great wisdom proclaim it is the brain which thinks when they state a part of the physical universe which has evolved by chance is what we are, the Soul dies. No part of the physical universe can think.

Part five of The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom; Paradise!

christianity | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion | Theology | Theosophy

Oblivion is comfortable; knowledge means responsibility, hand me another bottle please! The above is going to be the response of many a person when they discover the Christian heaven is just an absurd notion without merit. We do not seem mature enough to face the fact that the reality we seek is not the reality of our dreams. The biblical God may be evil but we desire to make excuses for him in order that we can carry on along the same treadmill to nowhere. We are so good that we would rather spend eternity in this dismal netherworld than find out our ancestors were wrong.

The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom; Part four

christianity | Gnostic wisdom | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion | Theosophy

Moving along we see that the Gnostics had answers, and more importantly, the answers they had support science as we now understand it two thousand years later.
Where the Gnostics got their material from is impossible to ascertain today; we see that they polluted these answers by employing ancient beliefs and answering the ancient beliefs by the use of this knowledge.
We have to assume the earliest Christians were Gnostic and therefore that what they stated about Jesus was closer to the truth than what today’s Bibles and theologians profess. They said Jesus came to free humanity from the evil God’s of the physical universe. They also stated that he came with this message after the death of his physical body and his spiritual resurrection. The Gnostics stated that the notion a body once dead walked again was idiotic which we today know is true.

Thoughts on Judaism and Christianity

Thoughts on Judaism and Christianity - with respect to all

The values of Christianity, like those of most religions, are beautiful etc.

I believe that a Jewish man named Joshua (later changed to Jesus when the New Testament was written up in Koine, a Greek dialect) was absolutely right about the priests in the temple, the corruption etc and he had the courage to stand up to the establishment, go his own way, I admire all of that.

Part three of The Journey to spiritual peace and Freedom;

In part two we saw some of the Gnostic material which elaborated on how we all came about and of what we are composed; this material was mainly from “The Apochryphon of John�, yet other material such as “The Vision of the Foreigner.
The Gnostics were not satisfied explaining the spiritual and how we all came about, they also explained the origin of the physical universe and go into a detailed description of how this came about in “The Paraphrase of Shem�.

Refutation of all religions, part fourteen: Conclusion!

Bliss | christianity | Harmony | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion

I could go on and illustrate how the early Christians lied about so called “Pagans�.
I could illustrate how the early Christians falsified ancient books and documents such as “Histories� by Herodotus, the writings of Josephus but to what end?

I could expose how they made up “Church Fathers� and how they put words into their mouths to validate their cult but will do so only if asked. There are also all the material falsified within the writings of the earliest members of the cult but this blog would be far too long if I dwelled on all the crimes these religionists perpetrated in the name of their “God�.

Refutation of all religions, part thirteen. Paul!

Apocalypse of Paul | christianity | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Paul | Religion

The existence of Paul is not in doubt, Paul lived, yet what is in dispute is what the message of Paul was.

The only NT material from the first century comes from Paul, yet all the alleged material of Paul is not written by Paul.

Elaine Pagels, a professor of Religion at Princeton University, in her book “The Gnostic Paul�; Makes a great case for Paul having been Gnostic. In the material which is considered authentic and by Paul there is nothing which contradicts these Gnostic aspects.

Refutation of all religions, part twelve. Jesus!

Appolinus of Tyana | christianity | History | humanities | Islam | Jesus Christ | Judaism | Religion

There is no person in the world which has had more written about him than Jesus.
There is no person whose alleged life is in more doubt than this same Jesus.

Born in a manger, this part is not unreasonable; Samaritans converted a Roman stable into a hospital to take care of the less fortunate, illegitimate children etc. Located near Jerusalem it is pretty sure several Jesus characters were born there.

Refutation of all religions, part eleven. The Dead Sea Scrolls!

christianity | Dead Sea Scrolls | History | humanities | Islam | Judaism | Religion

Instead of tackling the individual prophets separately it seems best to employ the material of the Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS). Through carbon dating of the material as well as the coins found in these caves it is clear that the deposits were made in three separate stages.

The first of these were the impending attack by Pompey in 63 BC.
The second was conquest of Jerusalem by Herod in 37 BC.
The third deposit was the First Jewish Revolt 70 AD.
