Society & Culture - 23 September 2007

We all know by now how some within the Catholic Church withheld information about some pedofile priests within the Church, there was a code of silence.

Gwen Landolt, former president of Real Women, spoke of how some lesbian social workers were involve in women's centers, preying on women and their daughters who attended abuse centers.

Should sensitive truths like these be allowed, or should they be censored?

Some say you can't go home again, but in the last few years, Bon Jovi, Michael Buble and others have sung about being able to go home. Does anyone know the other singer that is played on the radio that sings about going home? I've heard it twice and like that song.

I have proven you CAN go home and it's great to be back where I belong. I've just traveled nearly 800 miles and been here just four days and feel like I never left...wish I never did...but we do what we have to at the time.

If you miss home, go, you need to see if you missed something.

Wouldn't that seem illogical?

Isn't it a little presumptuous to say something like that?

If God can see the future, that means he can't do something that would change the future, otherwise the vision of the future would be incorect. Isnt' this a paradox?

It began hundreds of years ago, when the Church changed the Bible. . .


The "New Testament": Pagan revenge

Between G-d's own miracles and the Jewish teaching of His Word, the pagan priest/pastorhoods of Egypt, Greece, and Rome were steadily losing their power over the gentile populations. They decided to fight back by creating a new religion, one that would claim to be the fulfillment of the Hebrew "Old Testament," yet would bring back the pagan lies in a new disguise.

Thus the "New Testament" was written, in Greek rather than Hebrew, and attached to the original Hebrew scriptures to try to change their meaning back toward paganism.

The "New Testament" tried to change G-d from One, as in the Hebrew scriptures, into a "trinity" as in Egyptian cults or the eastern religions of Hinduism and Buddhism. It described Jesus as G-d in a human body, like the pagans always described Pharoah and other wicked kings. It declared G-d's Law to be a "curse" that no one can truly obey, announced that there must be a "mediator" between G-d and man, and pretended that salvation could now be achieved outside the Law.

To blind the gentile nations, the "New Testament" also warned people not to learn from the Jews, declaring that Israel no longer possessed the true, complete Word of G-d.

In the Bible, the book of Daniel warned of an evil power--a false religion--that would believe in the true "G-d of fortresses... plus a god its fathers did not know." This religion would "speak bizarre words about the Most High, wear out the holy ones (the Jews), and plan to change the festivals and the religious Law."7 The Christian Church has indeed replaced Passover with Easter (the pagan holiday of Astarte and Ishtar) and Hanukah with Christmas (the pagan winter holiday).

Jewish Ruling concerning Christianity :

"...according to the known Jewish ruling that Christians are idol worshippers." (Likkutei Sichos 37:198)


http://www.noahide.com/infiltration/xmas.htm

------------------

Jewish Ruling concerning Islam :

[36] Maimonides, Responsa, 448

The Muslims [Ishmaelim] are not in any way idolators. [Idolatry] has already been removed from their mouths and their hearts, and they unify G-d in the appropriate manner without any admixture [of idolatrous beliefs].
