Good Gays.

Gay people are good.

I know that some out of bitterness and spite may turn to the dark side.

But the overwheming majority of gay people are good.

Allegations by fundamentalists that gays are possessed by the devil are groundless.

This delusion is based on dubious passages in the Bible.

And it is rooted in fear and ignorance.

Gay people are good.

And they are loved and valued by God.

The End.

Just as the Age of Pisces saw the end of blood sacrifice to God.

So the Age of Aquarius will see the end of the theology of Original Sin and Redemption through Jesus' Death on the Cross.

These things are offensive to modern sensibilities.

They cannot last.

And they will be replaced by more positve theoogical conceptions.

Heavy Metal.

Bodybuilders lift heavy metal weights.

And they listen to heavy metal music.

Unfortunately heavy metal music is mostly Satanic.

And so they unconsciously associate heavy metal with the devil and hell.

Satanic rock music associates sex with the devil.

Therefore heavy metal is associated with sex.

This unfortunate situation can be countered by the presence of Saturn and Capricorn*.

Most bodybuilders have strong Saturn and Capricorn aspects in their charts.

Saturn represents the father and ultimately God our spiritual Father.

So their strength and masculinity leads them to God and to Heaven.

And so potentially bodybuilders can be Satanic monsters or pillars of living stone.

Thus their faith can save them.

If they pray to God with a sincere heart.

It is my prayer that they denounce the devil and all his works and turn to God through love the unseen hook.

(The astrological sign Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn.)

The Search.

The Baby-Boomer Generation rejected the Traditional Christianity of the 1950s which was negative, authoritarian, and threatening.

And we set out on a search for God.

Many of us experimented with Yoga and Eastern Religions.

But our search was sabotaged by Satanists in rock music.

Promiscuity and drugs diverted our pure intentions and ensured that our efforts ended in failure.

And so peace and love became sex and drugs and rock and roll.

And social justice became decadence.

 

The alternative title for Let the Sun Shine In - the final song of the Musical Hair - was The Flesh Failures.

And so we were set up from the beginning.

And we were sitting ducks for Reagan's Judgment of the Millennium.

But the Bible says: "Ask, and it will be given; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you." Luke 11:9 (NRSV)

So the search may yet be fruitful.

If we turn to God in prayer.

Hades.

In Astrology the asteroid Hades represents the crude or even evil aspects of our personalities.

These are hidden in our shadows and relegated to the subconscious where we don't acknowledge them.

But they are there and they will affect our behavior despite our protestations.

In the ancient world they were thought of as demonic spirits and were removed by exrocism.

But God can remove these things if we pray.

In the Book of Daniel it says: "Many shall be purified, cleansed, and refined."  Daniel 12:10 (NRSV)

And this is what transpires if we turn to God.

Feminism.

Feminism began as a justice movement.

It was lucid, enlightened, and necessary.

It became about power and hate and defeating male dominance by any means.

Women became obsessed with destroying the Patriarchy and establishing a Matriarchy.

The original intention was to establish equality, not supremacy.

So the trajectory of Feminism has been diverted.

Some seek power and knowledge through witchcraft and paganism.

Some seek power over men and boys - male strippers and toy boys.

Sexual dominance was not the original intention of Feminism.

The original objective was equality.

Progressive.

Progressive politicians are sweeping the Democratic Party in the U.S..

This is a sign that younger voters are moving to the left.

They support issues like: universal healthcare, action on climate change and gun control, dismantling ICE, social justice, and corporate taxation.....

And these ideals are compatible with progressive religious ideas that are emerging.

Progressive Christianity supports: social justice, diversity, non-violence, welfare, and peace.....

So support for progressives does not mean abandoning your religion.

Rather it reforms a religion that has lost its appeal in the modern wotld.

Agents of Evil.

There are agents of evil at work in our world but they are not who you think!

Rock stars, sports men and women, writers, actors, and directors, even betting companies and others.....

This is the hidden evil of Satanism in our culture.

They will addict you to pleasure, gambling, and football.....

They will wreck your relationships.

And they will sabotage your spiritual quest.

Satanism is religion backwards.

It is death, darkness, violence, force, punishment, hate, drugs, and evil.

It is damnation and hell.

Hence all the flames.

So be more discerning in your listening and watching.

Counter negative influences with classical music and scripture.

Then you will be on your way Home!

The Hand of God.

We may look at the world and see all the terrible things that are happening - the suffering cause by ignorance and fear, the violence, the lies, the corruption.....

We may even see agents of evil at work.

But despite all of this there is a God.

And He is working in our world.

It may not be immediately apparent, or manifest in the way we might expect.

But God is at work in acts of charity and compassion.

He is present in mercy and forgiveness.

And He is with us in the giving of love.

Homophobia.

At the root of the persecution of LGBT+ people in our world is fear.

Fear of immorality, fear of illness, fear of death.....

And it is this fear that drives Conversion Therapy.

Religious people are so afraid of homosexuals that they feel compelled to force us to change.

They still think that AIDS is caused by homosexuality.

And they still think that AIDS is God's punishment.

But because these errors are caused by irrational fears they can be changed by eduacation.

AIDS is caused by a virus, HIV, it is not moral in its behavior.

And in any case AIDS is cured so it cannot be punishment from God. 

And it never was.

So if you are homophobic look at the fears that drive you.

And when the fear is gone homophobia will be gone.

Prosperity.

There is a widespread belief that prosperity will lead to universal happiness.

But injustice is endemic to Capitalism.

And unbridled Capitalism has not brought happiness.

Only a fairer system will lead to universal happiness.

And a fairer system can only be achieved by legislative controls of the economy.

So do not be deceived by those who tell you that more money will bring happiness.

It does not.

Happiness will only be achieved when everyone has enough.

Enough.

I had an aunt who worked into her old age even though her husband had a well-paid job.

My mother asked her why she continued to work when they had millions.

My aunt said: "Because I never felt that I had enough."

She had grown up during the Great Depression and the fear of poverty was great indeed.

Perhaps this is how it is with those who chase after more and more wealth and possessions in our world.

Perhaps they are just afraid.

And as such we can feel sorry for them.

They don't have the courage or faith to stop.

For with God there will always be enough.

Ecclesiastes.

In the Book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible King Solomon is saying: "I was the richest man in the world; I had all wealth, all power, all pleasure; and yet I found no satisfaction in it." 

"All is vanity and chasing after the wind,"  Ecclesiastes 2:11 (NRSV)

He became disillusioned and hated life.

He developed a death wish. 

Even wisdom and knowledge seemed futile.

The wicked and the righteous experience the same fate: 

Naked we came into the world and naked we shall leave it.

And the ways of God are inscrutable.

But he does not find the answer.

All he can say is that God will bring everything to Judgement whether good or evil.

The Blacklist.

When we pray for others we must remember that some rock stars, sportsmen, writers, and entertainers have turned to the devil for fame and fortune.

And so those for whom there is evidence of evil* must be placed on the Blacklist.

Not that we should not pray for them but that they would try to take advantage of us and benefit from our prayers but not change.

So for others we can pray for heaven and salvation.

But for those on the Blacklist we must pray that they change.

They must denounce the devil and all his works and turn to God through love - the unseen hook.

For the devil denounces love because God is love and those who love abide in God and God abides in them.  (1 John 4:16)
