“Listen, I tell you mystery!

Like it or not, if you call yourself a Christian, or identify with the church in some way, part of the package is this vein of apocalypticism that runs through our scriptures and our history. Today’s readings are a case in point. Amos the Hebrew prophet speaks of a dark and terrible Day of the Lord. The Apostle Paul speaks of a time when believers will be “caught up together to meet the Lord in the air,” a key passage for rapture theology.

Is Christianity the Genesis of Modern Psychological Warfare?

We Invented Jesus Christ
Was Jesus Christ completely constructed from other stories for an ancient Roman propaganda campaign?
Biblical scholars will be appearing at the ‘Covert Messiah‘ Conference at Conway Hall in London on the 19th of October to present this controversial discovery to the British public.

“[Jesus Christ] may be the only fictional character in literature whose entire life story can be traced to other sources.”

The Jesus Mystery

The real story of Jesus is not the historical Messiah, but a myth based on perennial Pagan story. Christianity was not a new and unique revelation but is actually a Jewish adaptation of the ancient Pagan mystery religion. This is what has been called the ‘Jesus Mysteries Thesis’. It may sound farfetched at first. There is, after all, a great deal of unsubstantiated nonsense written about the ‘real’ Jesus, so any revolutionary theory should be approached with a healthy dose of scepticism. It is however, firmly based upon years of meticulous scholarly research and extensive references so that people can check sources for themselves.

Pagan America

The United States: A Country founded on Paganism
Pagan
1. A person who is not a Christian, Moslem, or Jew; heathen.
2. One who has no religion. –The American Heritage Dictionary, 1st edition

Although the common meaning of Paganism seems to imply atheism, a Pagan can worship any other god not common to the god of the Torah, the Bible or the Koran. This also includes those who worshiped gods before the advent of the Judeo-Christian religions. As Mortimer Adler put it: “Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and Cicero were Western pagans. The Western peoples of pre-Christian antiquity were all pagans in the sense defined. Many remained pagans during the early centuries of the Christian era; and from the 16th century on, the number of pagans living in communities that were predominantly Christian or Muslim has steadily increased.” [Adler]
