Religion
and the Destruction
of Civilization?
|
Religion
has killed more people than all the
plagues appointed to man. Now it's preparing
to destroy the world. Christendom (1000
to 1950) saw Popes warring against Patriarchs,
western Christians crusading against
Muslims, and Catholics butchering Protestants,
and visa versa, (in Northern Ireland
most recently). Now as Islam attempts
to extricate itself from the hundred-year
stranglehold of western petroleum using
nations, instead of joining forces the
Shiites and the Sunnis turn on each
other, kill their natural alias and
any chance of success.
God's
people must realize our religions are
being used to wreck civilization. (1)
Over population and global warming,
and (2) warring upon each other, both
of which defy all the teachings of God,
by what ever name, are partners in both.
The international ecclesiastical community
(ALL churches, temples, synagogues,
mosques) and God's appointed messengers
either remain silent, giving tacit support,
or worse openly fan the flames of war
and world abuse.
(1) It took us 77,000 years to put one
billion upon the earth (1832). It has
taken only 170 years to top six billion
and we're growing at a billion every
ten years. The sheer numbers of people
and supplying of goods and services
will accelerate global warming. If we
don't arrest population growth and reverse
it, in 20 years, we will be living on
a food starved, energy depleted planet
the size of a marble, fighting every
day for a spot in a 3' x 5" living space.
In the midst of this the Catholics and
the Calvinist (the so called
|
christian right [it's neither])
fight to stop abortions and warn
against birth control. Instead,
we need to be teaching birth control
is not a sin and supplying it those
who can't afford it.
(2)
We rear our children in the mosques,
synagogues and churches teaching
universal characteristics of a Godly
life: Love, Peace, Restraint, Sharing
and Wholesome living. Just imagine
any institution so stupid and corrupt
that when these children reach adulthood
we turn, anointing them to go off
and kill, rape, rob, plunder and
conquer the very people we spent
years teaching them to love. War
must be stopped, it is ruining our
species and the world's religions
are 100% responsible for this evil.
I'm
a born again - Holy Spirit filled
Christian, yet because I preach the
same things Jesus taught, the church
will accuse me of heresy. I've spent
my ministry attempting to bring human
beings to a relationship with Christ,
yet the best advice I can give the
people of the world is quit your religion
and run for your life, because you're
church, mosque, whatever, is probably
one of the most evil institution on
earth.
I
beg my fellow sojourners to reverse
the last 1672 years of sickness and
come back to the place where God would
have us. Let us (1) replenishing the
earth not destroy it, and (2) love
and respect each other becoming the
creature that God breathed into, creating
living souls. We need to become Human
Beings - together - For God's Sake.
