Resist The Theocracy

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


It is of the up most importance that a free and amicable people restrain themselves from yielding to the violent and unruly passions of those who wish to impose religious theocracy in the name of “Liberty”. The statement that claims that “this nation is judeo-christian” is erroneous and beyond all circumstances, flawed. A majority of those who crafted this nation from the brilliance of their thoughtful ingenuity were either non fundamental in the practice of their spirituality or deist. While the basis of the American legal system retains (somewhat) a limited affinity to the laws of Moses, that is where the notion of “judeo-christian heritage” must only be allowed to reside. The model of the political and social institutions of this nation are to follow the prescribed infusion of a liberal Greco-Roman political and philosophical theory. Such a prescription is incompatible with the rigid social demands of theocracy. Why is that so? The principals demonstrated through the practice of of such a liberalized Greco-Roman theory are those that of which encompass self rule, self reliance, freedom of thought, freedom of assembly, freedom of expression, freedom of association, freedom of choice, freedom of commerce and trade, freedom within all possible avenues of existence in respect toward the preservation of the practice so long that it is reserved for all and denied to none. May the subject be reiterated, that the theory of judeo-christian theocracy promoting unquestioned authority, hindered potential, dependence on a higher power (be it the State or Divine Providence) repression of thought, repression of expression, repression of association, repression of trade, repression of progress to preserve the status quo…Beyond all evidence, can not exist in unison with the prescription conceived by the founders of this republic.

While it is prudent for the public to conduct themselves in such a matter exemplified within the pillars of temperance, charity, restraint, reason, patience, courage, and honor, by no means should such virtues be legislated, authorized, enforced, or regulated by any entity of power whether natural or supernatural. These virtues are to be expected within a free society. If such expectations are not visualized as demonstrated without demand, or if such expectations are visualized through the means of involuntary consent…Then what can constitute as a practice of “freedom” if indeed there are demands, restrictions, and impositions on the collective moral rhetoric of society? Leadership is not demonstrated through legislation, rather, leadership is demonstrated through example. So long as the example is virtuous then so long should society be virtuous accordingly.

There exists a menacing trend which does not adhere to Greco-Roman rhetoric. A menacing trend ignorant of the faculties requisite of a free republic made by a people who freed themselves with their own hands. A menacing trend which embraces authority, rigidness, conformity, and legislative repression. This trend of Judeo-Christian theocracy as emphasized by such charismatic figures such as the likes of Mr Billy Graham, Mr John Hagee, Mr Pat Robertson, Mr Tim LaHey, Mr Bill Donahue, and the late Mr Jerry Falwell, must not be allowed to thrive or prosper for another day lest this free republic find it’s self in chains. While a left wing activist Federal Power is worth much contempt, a religious right wing activist Federal Power is worthless. Be not fooled by the overly romantic passions of nationalism, the theocracy, is anything and everything but nationalist. They do not display charity for all and malice toward none, rather they display charity for none and malice toward all. They lack respect for females, for racial minorities, for homosexuals, for the working, for the poor, for the disabled, for the enlightened, and for the makers of peace. Rather they show compassion for the wealthy, the elite, the powerful, the business class, the slave makers, the war mongers, and the tyrants of humanity. Though they preach the words of Jesus they do not practice what they preach. Their creed is money and power, nothing less, but their desire is unquenchable. Under a religious theocracy emphasized by those who were mentioned expect to find such.

They will ban abortions. Yet they will abort all notions of sanity.

They will declare free expression to be satanic, yet they will be free to express their their unyielding hatred for the power of reason.

They will ban the use of drugs, yet behind closed doors the white powder that they will snort is the physical essence of the “holy spirit”.

They will outlaw skateboarding, yet for the confession of sins they will turn to the sacred and pristine practice of boarding with holy water.

They will denounce the practice of war, yet they will wage a war on sin, a war on difference of opinion, and a war on “evil nations” in the hopes of bringing world peace “in his name”.

They will warn of the Antichrist and Armageddon from external sources yet internally do they provide shelter for the very embodiment of evil that of which they warn other to be weary of.

The days are coming when there will be much despair, doom, angst, and misery. There will be uprisings in the streets, public unrest, and perhaps chaos rattling the very foundation which upholds the monolith of civilization. We as a society must not entrust any measure of power into the hands of such individuals who claim to be working on God’s behalf. As a man who fears God, can I boldly declare, that those whom were previously mentioned making such claims to be working on the behalf of God, are only using God’s most holy name and essence to further their own status and power, they do not care about spiritual renewal unless that renewal provides funding for their bank accounts. They do not care about spiritual renewal unless that renewal grants them the power to control the individuals life. As Thomas Jefferson once proclaimed “Rebellion to Tyrants is obedience to God”. If Jefferson were alive today he probably would advocate that his statement should be applied to these monsters evoking the Lord’s name to legitimatize their false sense of authority. In the oncoming days we must not give into the demands of the theocracy, which will use such times to their own advantage. We must fight these people, before we enslave ourselves to these people through our own democratic process.

This republic was never intended to become a “Christian Iran”. The troublesome notion that conformity (neutral or positive) is destroying the fabric of our Greco-Roman heritage of free enterprise, will become much more unfathomable if the secular is replaced with the religious.During extreme times, extremists are hardly scarce in supply. Those who use fear and tension as tools to coerce the masses into obedient submission, are the greatest criminals mankind has ever witnessed. The point must be made, that during this era of economic decline, social upheaval, astrological disturbance, and unfathomable horrors…THE PRESERVATION OF GRECO-ROMAN PHILOSOPHY IS OF THE UP MOST IMPORTANCE! When logic and reason are utilized to their fullest capacity, the perspectives of Hope , Progress , Harmony , and Freedom are not any longer just thought entertained by the most disciplined optimist but in fact, reality. In our hands lies this great power of “Liberty”. In our very own hands lies the destiny of mankind. If logic and reason are used as they were designed then the forces of hatred, corruption, fear, greed, and tyranny will shatter into a million inconsequential fragments. If logic and reason are not used in their prescribed manner, if this culture of dependence, entitlements, carelessness, and fear, are allowed to sustain…Then mankind will have squandered all of that which he has accomplished in a such a short time, and he will then travel into the most horrific and darkest age he has ever known due to the woeful fact that he has lost faith in his own abilities. Perhaps that is what the most pious desire, as a way to legitimize themselves. However that is not nor ever will be what the liberated desire. And that is the very reason why theocracy must be resisted!

To conclude this, let it be stated. You are not a slave. You were never meant to be a slave. The concept of slavery defies the very essence of Divine Providence. If you allow religious distortion to convince you that you are nothing, then it is nothing you will be. A loving and benevolent God would not want his children to reduce themselves into mindless subjection. Whether or nor you are a believer in God, most of your have bought into the limitations imposed upon you by the theocratic demagogues. Most of you probably believe that you will never accomplish anything beyond your physical or mental limitations. If that is the creed that of which you practice, then you never even came close to knowing the essence of God. If you decided to ascend beyond the limitations imposed upon you by the religion, the state, and the status quo; If you attempted to defy gravity, to walk on water, or to make possible the impossible…How great is your faith in absolute freedom? The more free you are the closer you will be to witnessing the true face of God! For the essence of God is Freedom it’s self!!! Theocracy does not respect that concept and never will, which is why Theocracy must be challenged within every avenue of civilization, especially in this most tumultuous time. Believe in yourself, believe in your own abilities, believe in the powers of logic and reason, believe in no limitations…If you believe in this, if society believes in this, then believe that we, all members of the human race, will live to see the dawn of a new Golden age. WE WILL FINALLY LIVE TO SEE WORLD PEACE!!! In order for that to occur, the corrupt elements of the religious institutions; Whether they are Islamic, Jewish, or Christian (or whatever such institutions profess themselves being) perverting the name and will of God, to promote a culture of death, subservience, ignorance and fear to benefit the power hungry demagogues who drive their engines…MUST BE DESTROYED! God is a personal and intimate relationship, not a weekly carnival for people compare their best clothing with, or holy war creating billions of causalities. God is dignity, not exploitation. God is logic and reason, not fear and not ignorance. GOD IS LIBERTY, NOT THEOCRACY!!!!!!!!
