Every politician acts as if he or she is god and ordained to pose limits, restrictions, obstacles and blocks in the way of actually representing voters and those who do not vote out of fear of reprisal, reprimand, denial, denigration, or assassination by the chosen one. Every two years millions go to the pools to …
Evangelical fundamentalists flood into mega-churches and preach a gospel of wealth for a select few. This is not what the Jesus of the New Testament taught nor the form of prayer required. It is even more estranged in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.,
More crimes of violence and hatred are committed because of religion and mistranslations and errors in interpretation than for any other reason. Errors in the Bible must be exposed to understand Christian-Muslim hatred for each other and the wars of religion from the earliest times to the promised Armageddon of the New Apostolic Reformation that has anointed Rick Perry of Texas to sit on the left-hand of its god.
Over one million suicides occur each year. While many are the exit strategy of those suffering an incurable and painful disease, there is a growing number of suicides among preteens and teenagers–especially in the USA and in the Sixth Congress District of Minnesota that is represented by Michele Bachmann. No state is exempt, but a new thread is appearing: bullying those weaker than their opponents, and in the name of religion or “freedom” to express an opinion even if it compells children to end their lives.

John of Patmos is said to be the author of Revelation: the book of the End of Time. Many argue that he wrote it from having two dreams: a worldwide war, and the end of the world. It is not a unique story, nor are the characters within it from the Beast with seven heads (the goddess Tiamat) to the horsemen. This essay fleshes out the original essay on the Apocalypse: a nightmare, and looks closely at mistranslations that have occurred since the second century with every cult wanting its own Bible to defend its position, as with Jehovah’s Witnesses to suicide cults: Jonestown, Heaven’s Gate, and others. The real question is: was John of Patmos Island sane?
As the economic well-being of any people plunges, starvation and unemployment skyrockets, many will seek out demigods and dictators or turn to religion for temporary euphora. Some will argue that bad times are the sign of End Times and an Apocalypse is near. Is the Apocalypse fact or fiction? Here is the judgment of history, texts, and scholars.
There are conflicting accounts of the person known as Jesus and what Jesus did or did not do during his life on earth as recorded or ignored in the Bible. This essay looks on four separate Jesus Christs as contained in the gospels and compares the records with other documents that still exist
The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is identical, in every way, to the Taliban found in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Determined to dramatically change the USA “back into” a theocracy, the Apostles and Prophets of the NAR have anointed Rick Perry to become the next President of the USA. In addition to altering the US Constitution, Perry plans on Jesus returning from the sky to rule over the earth, with the Texas Governor at his right hand, so that evil is abolished, sex regulated, and laws changed to meet C. Peter Wagner’s ontology..
