Harmless?

When I tell people that there is Satanism in rock music, sports, and entertainment they often think it doesn't do anything.

It is one thing to recognize skulls, spider webs, and flames as Satanic, it is another thing to understand what they do.

Satanism is not harmless. 

Sex and drugs and rock and roll ruined a whole generation.

It leads to degradation, addiction, mental illness, and suicide.

And the death which is represented by skulls and black etc. is the death to God  described by St. Paul.

"the wages of sin is death."  Romans 6:23 (NRSV)

The purpose of Satanism in our culture is to inspire sin which they believe will lead to death and hell.

So be warned!

Satanism is not harmless.

The Soul.

When a person dies a light goes out of the body.

This light is the self that is the soul that lives in the heart.

It does not die but goes to God - the Lord of Love.

And so we should not fear but have total trust in the Lord of Love. 

We are loved.

And we are cherished by the Lord of Love.

Be devoted to that love.

And trust in Him.

Only God can save us.

Darkness.

Republican attempts to ban black history and any references to gay or transgender issues in schools is an attempt to keep people ignorant.

Because ignorant people are easier to control.

They are more likely to believe lies and misinformation.

And that suits the Republican Party.

But deliberate attempts to keep people in darkness are evil.

They are not in keeping with the Will of God - who is Light.

So efforts to inform people and educate them about the past and present issues are to be commended.

They are excellent manifestations of Light.

Colorado Springs.

The shocking news this morning of the mass shooting at the gay Club Q in Colorado Springs is a grim reminder that virulent homophobia is still a problem in our society.

And unfortunately this is fed by misguided religious people who persist in their condemnation and judgement of gay people.

How long will it take to overcome this fear and hatred?

How long will they continue to justify violence and murder?

And make no mistake they are wrong!

God does not condemn homosexuality.

Neither does He judge us.

God loves his gay children.

And we will all go to Heaven when we die.

Jesus.

Once  we realize that there is evil in our world and wish to oppose it but do not wish to use violence or force there is only one answer.

And this is the non-violent non-cooperation of Jesus.

Violence is never the answer.

So the example of Jesus is paramount.

And if we follow this example we will find that God protects us.

We must lay down the sword.

Because violence begets violence.

Ahimsa (non-violence) is a vital part of Eastern Religion.

And it is in tune with the message of Jesus.

Hippie Spirituality.

Contrary to the beliefs of Conservatives Hippies practise a form of Spirituality.

This Spirituality entails: Peace, Love, and Non-Violence.

It is non-materialistic and unselfish.

But this Spirituality was betrayed by rock stars pushing sex and drugs and rock and roll.

And Generation X blamed and shamed us.

Conservative politicians and media moguls reconstructed us.

And now we shop, watch, and holiday.

But times change and now is the time to resurrect Hippie Spirituality without the corrupting influence of rock music.

Peace, Love, and Non-Violence.

And unselfish non-materialism.

Spiritual but not Religious.

People who say they are Spiritual but not Religious are basically in the right place.

By Spiritual they mean they do not subscribe exclusively to the world's materialism and acquisitiveness.

And by saying that they are not Religious they mean that they think that Church people are judgemental, intolerant, and prejudiced.

And basically they are right.

But when it comes to articulating what that Spirituality entails they are much more vague.

And so they are not protected against the negative forces which lurk in our culture.

And they are not firm in the direction they must take.

It may be valuable to think about what Spirituality means in a positive sense.

And engage in prayer as a path to God.

What Went Wrong?

My generation - the Baby-Boomers - were born to change the world.

Peace, Love, and Justice were our ideals.

We had faith and we had hope.

So what went wrong?

The answer is that our rock stars betrayed us into lives of drugs and degradation.

Satanism hidden in rock music poisoned our minds and cursed our souls.

Sex and drugs and rock and roll ruined our lives.

Our heroes were murdered.

And the next generation blamed and shamed us.

We were disenfranchised and reconstructed.

But the root of all this was evil.

Violence, hate, and darkness prevailed.

But all this was hidden, whitewashed by the Religious Right, and lauded by the media who cast Ronald Reagan as a hero and pronounced judgement forever.

Nothing, however, lasts forever.

A third generation has arisen with political awareness and a commitment to action.

The time has come for us to resurrect our ideals.

And recommit ourselves to changing the world!

Scorpio.

Those born with generational planets in Scorpio (1960-1970) and (1984-1995) cherish dark dreams.

They idolize the devil and glorify his lusts.

They are fascinated with the dark side.

And they use violence and force.

They have no regard for the truth.

And they are obsessed with power.

But Scorpio's time is over.

And now they must face the truth.

That their actions were evil.

Lusts.

Contrary to popular belief lust does not merely refer to sexual desire.

Lust refers to those things which people crave in our world: fame, wealth, possessions, power, influence, adulation, pleasure.....

These are the things which people lust after.

Even to the point of turning to the devil to gain them.

But they are empty boxes.

They cannot bring happiness,

So do not be seduced by the idols of this world.

Only God can bring happiness.

And God is Love.

The Universal Field.

Everyone is at a different stage of development.

And everyone has a different background and experience.

What a person has experienced in life affects who they are.

We are the product of our decisions.

And these decisions are not always wise.

But everyone has been abused in life and this creates fear.

Fear makes us defend ourselves.

Fear makes us attack.

Fear makes us use violence and force.

But the universal panacea is love.

Love casts out fear.

And love reconnects us with our soul.

If we love God and love our neighbor we will reach the ultimate goal.

For God is Love.

And to give love is the ultimate lesson.

The Wisdom of the Heart.

The ultimate knowledge is what the Ancient Egyptians called The Wisdom of the Heart.

This wisdom far transcends mere intellectual knowledge.

It connects us with our soul - the divine spark - that dwells within the heart. 

This is our self that exists in the present moment. 

It is pure being.

And it connects us with the Great I Am who is the Lord of Love. 

It is fear that buries our soul within us.

It is fear that separates us from our self.

But when the Love of God comes down upon us we lose our fear.

And we can love with absolute security.

God's Love is steadfast.

His help is absolutely reliable.

We can ask for help and help will come.

It is fear that hardens our hearts.

It is fear that isolates us.

But when we feel compassion and love we overcome our fear and give our love freely.

This is the ultimate purpose of Life.

Rude Health.

The rules of religion are made by old men.

And so we are told to refrain from sex.

But young men need to have sex.

We are hot-wired for passion.

And we feel the first stirrings of love.

This is the Springtime of Life.

We should feel glad.

We should not feel ashamed or afraid.

Sex is the consummation of love.

And as such it is blessed by God.

The Black Economy.

Generation X justify Satanism because they claim it boosts the economy.

By pushing obsession, materialism, and addiction they get money out of us and feed evil.

And rich corporations and media moguls cooperate with them because it generates money.

You fools!

What will you do when they claim your souls?

Will you be able to escape?

Who will answer when you cry for help?

Satanism is hell!

And that is what they will do.

Death and Hell.

In the Book of Revelation Death and Hell are destroyed.

This means that the concepts of Death and Hell are debunked.

They are not realities but concepts based on the illusions of Dualism.

They are not part of God's plan at all.

God is One.

God is all Good, all Merciful, and all Forgiving.

His faithfulness is Eternal.

And His Love is Everlasting.

The Rider on the White Horse.

It is important to note that the sword of the Rider on the White Horse in the Book of Revelation comes from his mouth!

And so, contrary to popular belief, his victory over the Beast and his armies is not physically violent.

The sword with which he defeats them comes from his mouth - therefore it is his words that overcome them. 

He deconstructs them and disempowers them.

They become impotent and irrelevant.

The illusions of the Beast are dispelled.

And the false prophets are exposed.

With this evil is defeated.

And he opens the way for New Jerusalem.

Prosperity Theology.

Those who preach Prosperity Theology maintain that strict obedience to God's Law brings fortune and wealth.

Conversely they believe that misfortune - sickness and poverty - is a sign of God's disapproval.

This is basically bullshit.

It is designed to reinforce worldly values and to seduce people to obey and give money to the leaders who preach this false religion.

It is corrupt.

And it is not true.   

But it has made many an American Evangelist rich.

And it has whitewashed many sins.

Do not believe what they say.

It is not the Word of God.

Paul Pelosi.

The recent attack on Paul Pelosi, husband of Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi, shows the madness which has possessed the right-wing of American politics.

Lies, delusions, and evil fuel right-wing fears and incite violence.

Fox News and extreme Evangelical Christians feed an irrational mentality which embraces evil conspiracy theories which justify violence against left-wing political figures.

This attack is in the same vein as the Capitol Insurrection of January 6 2021.

And Republican politicians try to profit from this madness.

We can only hope that they will fail.
