Why are Christians Such Wimps?

April 12, 2023

Christian armies expelled Muslims from Spain and Mongols from Eastern Europe.

Where are they today when Christian children are massacred, and Christian values are trampled with impunity?

Christians today turn the other cheek so often, their heads are on a swivel.

 

 

from June 13, 2006

By Henry Makow Ph.D.


When an innocuous cartoon of the Prophet Mohamed was published, Muslims rioted and burned down embassies. But next week, a major Hollywood movie will challenge the veracity of Jesus Christ and Christians are sitting on their hands.

I have not read "The Da Vinci Code" but I understand it asserts that Christ married Mary Magdalene and had children. His descendants are still alive. Essentially it challenges the Bible story and the Christian belief that Christ was the Son of God. It transfers Christ's prestige to an Illuminati-like secret society that is protecting Christ's descendants against the Catholic Church.

The book and movie are yet another blasphemous assault on Christianity trumpeted by the full force of the Illuminati-owned mass media.

Recently Carolyn, a Christian reader from Maine, expressed her frustration in this email.

"Next week with 'the Da Vinci code,' "They" are going to call Jesus a liar as far as His Death and resurrection are concerned. Then they are going to claim his blue blood line. This would make Jesus a liar... wouldn't it? It is so twisted what they are selling and i count myself lucky to have a least read The Scriptures. 'My Feet Are Fitted With Readiness.' (Corinthians 6:15) What is going to be said about Jesus next week is apostasy."

I replied: "People like you should show their outrage publicly."

She replied: "HOW??? With Whom??? Where is the Remnant???"

I shrugged my shoulders. To change the metaphor, why are Christians such lambs? Why do they always need a shepherd to lead them and a flock to be part of? Isn't Christ a personal matter? Can't they act as individuals? Can't they take initiative? Organize a picket or protest in some other imaginative way? 

When Muslims in Afghanistan heard that the Koran was being flushed down the toilet in far away Guantonimino Bay, they rioted. For them the battle against Satan is very real, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives. This is why they pose the last remaining religious obstacle to the Satanic New World Order.

Similarly, question the veracity of the Holocaust, and Jews will cite "hate crimes" and put you in jail.

But do the same thing with the central fact of Christianity and there is a call for a boycott from the Catholic Church. Well, dah. That's not very scary.

Why are Christians such wimps? They sat idly by while Christ was crucified! Their reaction wasn't even a factor in that decision.

I have heard various explanations. Christ said, "Turn the other cheek" and "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's."

On the other hand, there is the example of Christ turning over the tables of the moneychangers in the temple. Let's follow Christ's example.

What good are Christian beliefs if you don't stand up for them? Where is the self-respect of Christians if they allow their beliefs to be trampled on?

But it gets worse. Some so-called Christians like George W. Bush are actually willing to serve Satan. Christian chaplains serve with the American army in Iraq and minister to soldiers. Everyone should know Sept. 11 was a hoax designed to justify imperialist wars and domestic repression. It was perpetrated by the Illuminati bankers in London with the help of their puppets in the US government. You just have to look at who bought the Put Options on the airline stock to know the true perpetrators. (Of course this info has been suppressed.)

Christians should file "hate crime" law suits against the makers of "The Da Vinci Code." It seems "tolerance" only applies to those who would destroy Christianity and family. On  Judgment Day we will be graded not by what we believed but by what we did. It's time Christians stood up for Christ.

Mr. Makow,
 
My brother, who is a missionary in southern France sent me a link to your article entitled "Why Are Christians Such Wimps?".  In the article you said, "When Muslims in Afghanistan heard that the Koran was being flushed down the toilet in far away Guantanamo Bay, they rioted.  For them the battle against Satan is very real, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives."
 
I say the Muslims are foolish for how they reacted.  The Word of God teaches that "The wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God." (James 1:20)  and  "Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil." (Psalm 37:8)  There is such a thing as righteous indignation but rioting is not the answer.  "Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord."  (Hebrews 10:30)
 
Peter attempted to stick up for Jesus and was rebuked by Jesus.  The soldiers ear, which Peter had wacked off, was miraculously restored by Jesus.  "Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.  Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath:"  (John 18:10-11)   In another place the Scripture reads:  "...all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword."  (Matthew 26:52)
 
The Bible teaches Christians to, "Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good."  (Romans 12:21)
 
The battle isn't ours, it's the Lords.  "the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the Lord's"  (I Samuel 17:47)   "the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds"  (II Corinthians 10:4) 
 
You said,  "What good are Christian beliefs if you don't stand up for them?  Where is the self-respect of Christians if they allow themselves to be trampled on?"  Jesus said, "These things I command you, that ye love one another. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.  If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.  But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.  If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.  He that hateth me hateth my Father also."  (John 14:17-23)
 
Christians should take their stand for Christ by sharing Him with others.

Comments for "Why are Christians Such Wimps?"

RH said (April 13, 2023):

I fear I am developing Jewish Fatigue which is not antisemitism. I am on my way to developing Democrat/Republican/Chinese/Ukrainian/Russian/Gender/Feminism fatigue. How can we expect less, if every day we are force-fed a diet of propaganda about any certain sub-group?

By controlling the main stream media, Hollywood, the US government, Pro-sports, and as we see, many "woke" corporations including big pharma, Jews have worn out their message on me.

So,what do I do? I turn off and look away from their propaganda.

This is why I read your website!


CA said (April 13, 2023):

Mr. Makow, am a fan of your site. Just wanted to write regarding the recent article, "Why are Christians Such Wimps?". The issue with Christianity is that they have certain key passages of the Bible translated incorrectly, subtle enough to make such a huge difference. The verse in Luke 6 regarding turning the other cheek leaves out the part that says it would be better to turn the cheek then to revile again. Means that there are other options besides just bending over and taking it, i.e. turning the other cheek, it's that fighting is not preferred to turning the other cheek. The best option, and one that the Lord's people have been asked to do numerous times, is to walk away, depart Babylon, be in the world but not of the world. That's a huge difference from letting people continue to abuse you b/c of your religion. Besides how can someone love their neighbor as themselves if they allow the abuse to continue?
Thanks for your site, keep up the good work.


AJ said (April 13, 2023):

Regarding your June 13th, 2006 article about " Where are the Christian men?"

The Christian men are those of the true Catholic Church currently eclipsed by a wicked ends time counter church.

We are Sedevacantist meaning that we are obedient to lawful Popes.

Not vatican two!

You will forever be lost until you understand this.


TW said (April 13, 2023):

All high schools and colleges have taught student that Christians were evil during the Crusades and nothing they did was justified. Educators have drilled in a politically correct guilt complex so Christians don't speak up strongly because they know they'll get pummled


David said (April 13, 2023):

Christians acting like some of these other people would be less than hilarious. And it would be imitating them as well in their desire to create havoc. Christians, I guess, are playing the long game. And it keeps getting longer. The Second Coming. Christ comes back with a different agenda. What will Christians do then? They are going to do what Jesus does. That's what it's all about. Thousands of years are just a patience building exercise.


Dave J said (April 12, 2023):

Henry, Geez.
Based on the Albigensian Heresy.
Look it up.
As for me I'm running out of cheeks.
Is it time for a simple choice of calibres ?


Jim said (April 12, 2023):

I haven’t read all the drivel that the so-called followers of Jesus of the Bible wrote to you.

None of them have ever emulated the courage and fortitude of Jesus of the Bible. He challenged the
Edomite Jews to their face. He called them out as Satanists. Evil doers that they were. Read it in the Bible. And the powers that be conspired with
The Romans to kill him. Jesus of the Bible was a warrior. He was not a wimp. Those wimps who wrote you telling your readers Jesus of the Bible was a wimp lied. Not True. He told the truth, and the powers that be at that time killed him.

He was a tough guy. Not a wimp. So, those readers who write to you and say he was a wimp lied. No way.

Almost all so-called Christians today are wimps. Nothing like Jesus of the Bible. They are a bunch of spinless pussies.

Jesus of the Bible told his followers to obey the rules and love the guy next door. He never ever said love evil. He told his Followers to resist evil.


Bitsy said (May 21, 2006):

People like me "should show their outrage publicly". Yes, I know I should. Why will I not do it? Because I am afraid! I was born, raised and lived in a communistic country for 28 years. For the last 19 years I've been living in Canada – a country that reminds me so much of my first homeland. Our society is totally controlled by the government, the media is controlled by Jews. Being politically incorrect practicing Roman Catholic and a critic of propaganda does not get you far. Being outspoken is simply wrong, society in general is apathetic, standing up for my Catholic beliefs... I would show my outrage publicly, but I am simply afraid! I know that this act of courage can be very pricey (I have already lost my job by criticizing an alcoholic director of an agency I worked for). My home, back in my first homeland, was searched by secret agents regardless of the fact that my mom was 7 moths pregnant at the time, two members of my immediate family were unjustly arrested for their political and religious believes, imprisoned and died shortly after their release from prison. I witnessed what can happen to you if you show your outrage - you might be not able to find a job, your children might be prevented from obtaining the education they wish to get, the tires on your car might be slashed, your house might be burnt, somebody might push you under the passing car and there are no witnesses to this accident and the list goes on and on. Some people might say that I am paranoid. No, I have already been there and done my outspoken deed. I have the first hand knowledge of a system we live in. But still , I wish I had the courage to speak... but I am afraid to say much. I am proud to be who I am, I am proud that I taught my children to be observant and sensitive to the decline of our collective conscience and I am proud of some other things, but now in the frenzy of "DaVinci Code" I rather "turn the other cheek".


Terry said (May 17, 2006):

I know you've gotten quite a bit of flack for your article about Christians
being wimps, and I hope it doesn't discourage you to express your opinions.
I understand where you're coming from, because I feel the same way, but I
adhere to 2 Corinthians 10: 3-5...

"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the
weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the
pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high
thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into
captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;"

Your website is a perfect example of how Christians ought to fight against
the World; with the Word of God and casting down imaginations. We are
supposed to be separate from the world, as lights shining in the darkness,
and we all know that the shadow cannot overcome light. The New World Order,
the Illuminati, and all of Satan's servants are darkness, and Jesus is the
Light.

And if it's justice you want, I'm afraid you're going to have to wait for
the Judgement Day, because there won't be any until then. Thanks and keep
writing


Basil said (May 17, 2006):

In reference to your article " Why Are Christians Such Wimps?" I felt compelled to write to you with at least my personal reason for not taking to the streets in protest to the Davinci Codes. I do not care. It is not worth my breath to waste on protesting rubbish. If a Christian believes in this worthless, easy to debunk, profiteering story, then perhaps Christian they are not. But who am I to judge? You see, I am too busy living a life, a gift from God. I share my life with too few others around me, helping, teaching, working, trying to make at least a piece of the world a better place. I hear much talk about Americans' Christian virtues but I really don't see much of it in human behavior in daily life. It's sad to say acts of kindness, humility and faith are far too few and in-between in this so-called "country based on Christian values." It seems that only in times of disaster the American people do charitable acts. What's going on? Are they "resting on their laurels" - so proud of what they have donated? Does this ease their consciences lest they be perceived as not being charitable?

So you see Dr. Makow, I follow the beat of a different drummer. I am not a sheeple. Perhaps I am not of this world and hopefully I am destined for an everlasting kingdom. Yet I also know all the acts I do in the world will not matter because that is for my Lord Jesus to judge. He knows what is truly in our hearts and we will be judge on that. I have not fallen for the lies and deceit of an administration that uses religion for political gain - politicians, professionals, citizens, who are so corruptible as to use religion for ulterior motives other than the goodness in their hearts - that radiance of the Holy Spirit from within.

It is not God that I have lost faith in; it is mankind.

God Bless and Xristos Anesti (Christ is risen)!


Butch said (May 16, 2006):

The Christian Wimp theory proves that the P.H.D. letters stand for petty,hubris and du. mb!!!!! This secrets of Christianity novel is in the FICTION SECTION. . of bookstores. DAH ---PHD.Love one another,but recognize a brother who needs serious help.Sincerely, a Christian Brother


D.G. said (May 16, 2006):

The question should rather be asked: why have they not asked their churches
to expoiund on the following clear allusions to Jesus' marital state??:

Firstly, in the Gospels Jesus is repeatedly addressed as "Rabbi", who according
to rabbinal law had to be a married man, preferably with a child. Secondly,
In John 11:20-29 Mary (Magdalene by scholarly consensus) sits at home mourning
her brother Lazarus, i.e. sitting shiveh according to Jewish custom, a confinement
from which only a woman's husband could release her. When Martha tells her
"the Master... is asking for you" Mary jumps up and runs out of the house.
The "sitting shiveh" is explicitly so stated in David Stern's hebraised Jewish
Bible, without any further footnote. Thirdly, on encountering Jesus on the
first day of the week, Mary Magdalene addresses him as "rabboni", (helpfully?)
translated as "teacher". However, the same appellation occurs only once elsewhere
in the Bible, in the Aramaic Targum of Hosea 2:18 where the symbolic returning
wayward spouse of the prophet will call him henceforth "my husband", and
no more "my master".
Can the churches explain why they have instead opted for portraying Mary
Magdalene as a repentant, reformed prostitute for which there are no historical
grounds whatsoever?


Rick said (May 16, 2006):

Just read your latest assault on christians about the da vinci code.
Let me get this straight. A christian should not treat his brother as he wants to be treated, but instead be like the rest of the world.
Christians should be intolerant of anything that may or may not be offensive, and be aggressive, and crush dissent.
Obviously you don't get it.
Do you.
A teaching that embraces love and kindness, longsuffering, patience, and understanding, has no place in a society that loves death and seeks revenge, and lives in a gotcha mentality.
Get off the christians backs.

I see many flaws in myself and try to work on them, that doesn't leave much time to pick other people apart.How do you do it?

I am thinking that whatever kind of person you are outwardly (and its pretty ugly), that inside the spirit of God is hiding in there.


Rich said (May 16, 2006):

I am not a Crusader, I will fight for Christ and stand up for the truth - I'm just not going to do it the Muslim way. When Muslims burn stuff and kill people that do not agree with them they are acting within their religion's doctrine. Jesus commanded no such thing. Christians have done some pretty horrible things in the past 2000 years, and I am not going to follow their footsteps.
By the way, Evangelical leaders in the U.S. are so weak they really do not know what to do. The church has compromised so much, due to our insatiable need for acceptance, that we lack the conviction to stand up for what is right. I am not tolerant, I do not stand by and let people (whoever they maybe) talk about Christ without calling them out. I had a lot of practice with that when I was at the university. I like to say, "I live in the South, but I learned intolerance and bigotry at the University."


David said (May 15, 2006):

Picket, protest ? Because someone created an ungodly movie ? Have you been to the movies lately ? Which one isn't ? When did Christ ask his followers to picket ? No, my friend, we are to be in the world, not of it. This is not our home. I'm not interested in making the world a better place from which people can go to hell. I would rather serve the Kingdom of God of which by the grace of God I am a citizen through faith in Christ Jesus. I would rather be able to share the truth of Jesus Christ through the Sprit to those who do not believe in Him.

Did he overturn the money changers tables? Most definitely - again, in fulfillment of the Scripture. One of my deepest outrages is to see politicians make campaign speeches in churches. Why would any Christian set foot in a house of God to listen to someone glorify themselves or things of this world ? Gods house is to be a place of worship - they made it a den of thieves. What is a movie theater ? A work of this world. If what is shows offends you then don't go.

Amazingly you complain that Christians sat by idly while Christ was crucified. Well, mostly they ran away. The Shepherd was struck and the sheep scattered. According to the Word. What would you have them do? Peter was rebuked by Christ for even suggesting that he forgo the fulfillment of salvation he was to endure. Would the recipients of the grace of God have been noble in fighting against the very plan by which they were saved ?

Christ sent his followers out like sheep among wolves. Are his values trampled ? Of course. For now. By this world and those that are of it. This world hates God and those things of God. Especially truth. This world listens to the evil one - for he is a liar and the father of all lies.

The world has always reviled God and will always do so and will revile those who follow him. This is cause for rejoicing to those who suffer for his sake.

The Da Vinci Code provides a wonderful opportunity to believers to share the truth about Jesus Christ to those who might never have even had an interest in discussing the matter before. Your outraged Christian readers might best spend their time preparing themselves in prayer and the Word that the Spirit might work through them if the opportunity should present itself.


Murphy said (May 15, 2006):

I usually love everything you write, but this time……….Christians are not wimps!

Bush is not a Christian, he only poses as one for political reasons. The Muslims are extremely violent and believe that if they kill in the name of God they will immediately go to heaven. Yet one of the commandments is "Thou shall not kill." We Christians try to follow the teachings of Jesus. Jesus taught peace and love, not violence. He said to pray for your enemy and to love your enemy. We are not going to break the law or resort to violence to try to stop some guy from trying to make a mockery of Jesus and his life. Who is he going to convince? If anyone believes that crap, they didn't believe in Jesus in the first place.


Max said (May 15, 2006):

While my research has shown that Christ was real and a teacher against the Satanic New World Order, his message and following was hijacked after his death and used as a convenient way to create a new mystery religion, this is blatantly obvious when studying the birth and power creation of the Catholic church and how it was used by elites posing as “religious” authorities. Jesus’ positive message continues to
degrade with every generation and ever-perverted Bible translations such that now American Christians can praise the Lord in one breath and send their children off to fight the Illuminati’s war in the next.

As one who was raised Catholic, I’ve seen this happen first hand. How sad and ironic that Jesus warned against SNWO idols and was then turned into one by them.

So now we have a society whose strengths (family and community) are based on faulty institutions and prime for attack- the execution of the setup has been masterful, as usual.

You ask why Christians can’t act as individuals- that is simple, it has by and large been engineered out of them. Of course, most won’t even know it since that is part of the manipulation, they’ve been exposed to a
lifetime of group-think and group-control (via
congregations, etc) and told to “express themselves” and be unique individuals but never given any meaningful opportunity to do so within the society they live in (else face out casting) and in general will feel that the norm must be good enough as it has been “refined” for centuries so it must be good enough
for them too. A new slave is born: lock, stock and barrel.

I won’t spend much time to learn about Dan Brown
(author of “the Da Vinci code”) but he seems to at least be introducing some people to the concept of an unknown Illuminati, see:
http://www.danbrown.com/novels/angels_demons/interview.html

Maybe it will wake some people up.

It’s agreed that Muslims are perhaps the last obstacle to the Satanic New World Order, which is why they are suffering ruthless attacks. In general, Muslims remain devote to a set of principles that are incompatible with the long range plans of the SNWO not the least of
which is their opposition to usury, part of the
foundation that has lead to the control of society through banking manipulation.

Thanks for all the great work.


Lisa said (May 15, 2006):

The Da Vinci Code book and movie is a monsterous success despite your efforts and publishers and producers have every right to put it out there because whether one believes it or not (see, it's a work of FICTION) there's that crazy thing called the First Amendment or Free Speech. See, it's the same protection you get to spout your horse manure. Then again, I suppose a person who believes women want and subconsciously strive to be subjagated simply to make himself feel more in control and powerful may just believe anything, including non-Christians don't have a right to their faith, or non-faith-based opinions.

My advice to you and your ilk: DON'T GO SEE THE MOVIE AND ALLOW THE REST OF US THE RIGHT TO CHALLENGE OUR INTELLECT IN PEACE.


Dimitrios from Greece said (May 15, 2006):

In 2 Timothy 3 we read Paul's charge to Timothy: "Everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, while evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus (10-15)."

You see, Mr. Makow, our Lord Jesus Christ foretold us about these things that are happening in front of our eyes. These are the signs referred to in the New Testament. He warned us about false prophets, about efforts to disprove his Godly-divine nature, about people making wars in his name (like the idiot G. Bush) etc...but armed us with faith and knowledge of his Testament. True Christians will not react to these assaults until the man of lawlessness appears...and his appearance is closer than people think...what is happening with assaults such as the Da Vince Code is just the setting of the stage for the man of lawlessness's appearance. These are efforts to shake Christians's faith and Christians know the way to endure these assautls, and this is not like the Muslims, the Jewish or other faiths....and this must be respected.

Thank you for your patience,
Best Regards,

Dimitrios, an Orthodox Christian from Greece.


Christine said (May 15, 2006):

The reason that Christians are wimps is that they are not Christian. In 428 A.D., the Catholic Patriarch Nestorius of Constantinople announced the heresy that Mary is not the Mother of God on Christmas Day. His flock responded by rioting in fury.

Starting with the Protestant revolt, Christians have slowly abandoned their beliefs until they have almost none. They don't even have children the way they used to, having abandoned Church teaching to be fruitful and multiply.

Consequently, they have nothing to fight for. As the famous poem on the end of time said "The best lack all conviction, the worst are full of passionate intensity."

If you really want to know why Catholics have abandoned their beliefs, read The Plot Against the Church by Maurice Pinay. You can buy it at http://www.omnicbc.com/


Jack said (May 15, 2006):

My personal comprehension of Christianity is that the believer is compelled to practise love. And love does not work injury upon those with whom he disagrees. The primitive Christian maintains there is no man-made remedy for all that ails mankind. The Christian is patient; he awaits God's kingdom to materialize in a blaze of cosmic fury and the restoration of an earthly paradise after a mighty terrestrial paroxysm.

Ironically the satanic Magians of the City of London, those whom you identify as Illuminati, are also awaiting this same cosmic eruption. Their counterfeit kingdom and plan of the ages are tied to it. The construction of well-stocked underground facilities around the globe illustrates their foreknowlege of the turbulence about to be caused on earth by cosmic chaos.


Bruce said (May 15, 2006):

Henry,

Simple, because, in the words of David Icke, you become what you resist. Ever hear 'Resist not Evil?"

Take a good look at those 'christians' who are resisting. Not christians at all, unless I am unable to understand english as written in the red letter edition.


Haven't you noticed that the US has become what the USSR was? Except today we have Edward L Bernays. We resisted the evil empire so long, that we have become it.


Besides, what do you expect from a religion that has an instrument of torture as its symbol?


Religion makes men stupid. When Christians say Amen, the are invocating Amun-Ra, the Egyptian god.


Spirituality makes men God.


As one of the early presidents of the mormon church said, what man is, God was. What God is, man will become.


There is just as much evidence that Jesus married and had children as their is to the contrary. Basically, if you objectively study all evidence that exists, the whole life of Jesus as outlined in the bible is Bullshit. Notice I said life, not teachings. A great man as long as you give up virgin birth, born in a manger and crucified on a cross.


Jesus has always been in the royal bloodlines of europe. Read some of Sir Laurence Gardiner's works.

Kenn said (May 14, 2006):

re: Da Vinci Code

A. Please read the book before commenting on it. While it claims certain things as FACT, it is a work of FICTION.

B. Christians would not have any basis for a hate-crime suit, because what Christians believe, they believe by FAITH.FAITH is not FACT. There is no proof there ever was a man named
Jesus who was the Son of God. Period.
Belief in Jesus is not any different than belief in Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy. Just because there's a book (the bible) that says
it's so does not make it so. God would hardly resort to human
technology, i.e. writing, to communicate with man. He would communicate with each man's mind directly so as to avoid distortion. The bible is a book written by men with an agenda and mistranslated into English, by the
way. It says "Sons of God," not "Son of God."

C. The biggest proof that man was not made by God is man himself. If this is the best God could do, God is not God. I want my money
back.

D. To me, "The Da Vinci Code" was a big disappointment. Of much greater interest is Laurence Gardner's and Zecharia Sitchin's
books.

E. I agree with you that the official explanation of 9/11 is bunk.


Randall said (May 14, 2006):

Because Christianity was from the start a slave
religion.

Nietsche pointed this out years ago. In the case of European Christianity, it emerged as something the Roman hierarchy would tolerate--and then became a useful tool for maintaining state authority. It entered northern europe via the goths. Christianity started as a learning system that gave the target population a way to deal with the more preatory aspects of mercantile cultures --but didnt give them enough knowlege to get terribly independent.


Jean in Hungary said (May 14, 2006):

Most of the American and European christians are superficial believers: the connection between their everyday`s life and the message of the Christ is loose. Their religious faith is more a question of social correctness than a willingness to use their life to build up an immortal soul with the help of the Christ`s teaching. That`s why many of these superficial christians are prone to be receptive to the „Da Vinci Code” message: "Don`t take the Christ too seriously because he didn`t die on the cross and thus didn`t resurrect and thus wasn`t a messiah.”

The first level of the „Da Vinci Code” message is for the masses. It suggests that, since the Christ wasn`t a messiah, his teachings are only philosophical abstractions rather than a divine truth. This means that there are no universal moral values. This is justifying the power of the strongest/richest over the weakest/poorest and transforms everyone believing the „Da Vinci Code” message in an selfish being who has no reason to feel responsibility towards the others. Morally irresponsible individuals are isolated from each other and thus much easier to manipulate („divide and conquer”) than those who are cemented and strengthened by universal moral values and the belief in a loving God.

The message of the „Da Vinci Code” could also have another level, designed for the western „elites”. In your quoted article of David Livingstone, it is said that members of the Stuarts family believe to be descendents of not only the Christ but also of Lucifer who they pretend to be the first ancestor of the Christ. Then, if enough people amongst the international „elites” believe in Lucifer, they would naturally accept to be ruled by a descendent of their god. It seems that the luciferianism is widespread today in the western social „elites”, thanks particularly to UN backed organisations like the „Lucis Trust” (previously called „Lucifer Trust”). Livingstone`s article also says that the Rothschild family is blood-linked to the Stuarts; then, if the Stuarts become one day the crowned head of the new world order, the Rothschilds will be in good position to pull the strings of their royal puppets. Since the princess Diana is presumed to have been a Stuart herself, is one of her offsprings going to be the first puppet king of the new world order?

One of your readers pointed out that unlike Jews in America, and Muslims in their own countries, those who love Jesus do not have any real media outlet for their protests. Yet, that is not completely the problem. The word "Christian" means to literally be a "Soldier for Christ" and many Protestants do not have that drive in them because they think that "faith alone" will get them into Heaven. These people think 'oh it's just a book' or 'oh so what if I see the movie, it's just fiction and I am a "believer" so I am "saved" anyway.' Poppycock.

This country has also become a nation of people-pleasers and it is disgusting. What is responsible for this disease of people-pleasing? Humanism, liberalism, feminism, mass corporate media, Hollywood films, Protestant beliefs, and the pressure to be "tolerant." In addition, the grand illusion that "there is nothing I can do" and "what's the use?" has been instilled into Americans.

However, it is somewhat of an illusion that there is no outrage and protest. Do a Google Search for "Da Vinci Code" and "protest" or "boycott" and you will find hundreds of reports of people planning things or of people who have already taken action. There is also talk of a massive prayer vigil that will take place around the country. Those who are willing to stand up for Jesus THE Christ will be praying in front of the theatres which are going to show this film and they will pray -collectively- around the clock.

The corporate/illuminati/Zionist controlled mainstream media is not going to allow very much footage of any protests. They only allow footage of protests which will enable their plans (read:The millions of law-breakers (many who have not even bothered to learn English) who took to the streets two weeks ago to scream that more laws be broken for them and that people-pleasing Americans cater to their self-centered and destructive demands.

By the way, This "Da Vinci Code" film and book have no power to harm Jesus, nothing and no one can touch Him. But this film and book have mixed truth with lies and it has the potential to destroy souls. Those who love Jesus must defend Him. They must help to stop the creation of distorted and reptilian ideas of Jesus in the minds of children and the unaware. Unlike Jesus, Satan is confined by time and he knows it. He is working hard (with the help of his acolytes) to take as many souls with him as he possibly can when he is thrown into hell. All those who call themselves Christian ought to be taking action to counter this film. Silence is approval, and just as bad as evil itself.

Christians have been BULLIED to "Turn the Other Cheek" - Philosophically Confused and WEAK, and WITHOUT ANY "UNITY" - Read Themistocle`s speech [or watch the good old heroic movie; "300 Spartans",1962, Richard Egan, Diane Baker {it`s fun too!}] His speech to the ancient Greeks when faced with the horror of Xerxe`s invading Horde; He stressed "UNITY"!!! - the OPPOSITE of YOU "moderns".

I am glad you reminded me of this code madness. I will bring this issue up at with my local Imam in attempt to organize an Islamic protest of this demonic movie to vocalize our anger and discontent. We Muslims not only revere the final messenger to humanity, Mohammed peace be upon him, but we uphold and respect each any every other Prophet, including Jesus Christ, son of
the blessed virgin Marry. An insult to any prophet of God is an insult to all Muslims, and we stand by our true Christian brethrens in unity against such an assault to a holy and miraculous human being, who came with a divine message for mankind and will return to
bring tranquility, unity and justice back to earth.

[003:045] Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! God
giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to God;

[003:052] When Jesus found Unbelief on their part He said: "Who will be My helpers to (the work of) God?" Said the disciples: "We are God's helpers: We believe in God, and do thou bear witness that we are Muslims.

Why are non-Christians such pussies?

Non-Christians promote a private monopoly currency system.
Non-Christians promote a State monopoly currency system.
Christians promote a private AND COMPETITIVE currency system.
Non-Christian pussy minds cannot conceive of or are too afraid of this Biblical solution.

Is there a problem in Iraq?
Non-Christian pussies sign up to aggress against innocent people because they are too weak to earn a paycheck in the real competitive economy, to weak to learn a trade.
Courageous Christians refuse to join the violent criminal army even under threat of punishment.

Non-Christians promote lies in books to 100 million atheists. Christians then write opposing truthful books, showing the lies and then convert 20 million people, who are angry that they've been lied to, to Christianty.
Score: Atheists down 20 million, Christianty up 20 million.


Tony said (May 13, 2006):

There is an error in your current article although the theme is a proper one a few of us have been arguing for decades.

When Christ lived as man Christians could not back Him as there were no "Christians." There were only the apostles and those other followers of what He had been telling them in opposition to the Pharisees and Sadduces. They were mostly Israelites, that is, followers of the God of
the Israelites. Christ, even to the apostles, was an "outsider" of that religion, albeit fighting the rot in the official seats of religious authority.
...
True enough, [Christ's teaching] did not make His followers brave hearts at His crucifixcion, as the cowardly actions of His strongest follower, St. Peter, made clear. But later, after the full spiritual development of
His Word, they, and millions of others, showed the world unbelievable courage.

It is the latter day internal destruction of the spirit of Christianity by satanic infiltrators that makes pusillanimous "Christians." First
Protestantism, then modernism, and finally, Vatican II, made a spiritless empty "feel good" vessel of Christianity. Today there are
still individual Christians who will give their lives for their beliefs but these are in spite of their organizations, not because of them.
Even these sometimes give their lives for immaterial political reasons rather than spiritual just as the same error is made by some devout Muslims.


Daniel said (May 13, 2006):

Thank you for the article. Regarding your question, in my opinion their core beliefs are full of contradictions that ultimately preclude any other course of action. My definition of insanity is the attempt to hold two diametrically-opposed views at the same time. The world, particularly the theological world, is full of it (pun intended). Below are two articles I wrote relating to this very subject. A third article that, I believe, delves further into the psychology of their cowardice is at

It is all a show or illusion to get us to accept a one world satanic religion by destroying the current majority religion. They tried it with "Communism" and now they are trying it again with another "ism" that being "Terrorism". You must admit that it is clever to bash and destroy christianity through attacking the Catholic Church and how the illuminati are evidently protecting us from pedophile priests and the catholic assassins of Christ's supposed decendants as depicted in the DaVinci code. Although if you had bothered to read Norman Livergood's essay entitled "Esoteric Christianity" on his www.hermes-press.com website, you would have discovered that the true essence of christianity went underground and the state approved version was adopted by Emperor Constantine after the Arian Heresy and nicean creed laws changed the bible to a version acceptable to the state so that it could more easily rule it's subjects with the opium of religion and cheek turning


Tom said (May 13, 2006):

As a Christian sitting on his hands, I pass these observations before even reading your post this week: we have no loud bugles, no TV
stations, no big-time newspapers, no powerful magazines to blare out our objections, and a fair no. of our "Christian" brethren are
sufficiently judaized (think Protestant) to have no ideas the Media Jews don't give them. Now the Media Jews have decided that ol' Dan Brown
needs more millions and his tale is delightful.

All I know to do is not see the movie, but the first person over the wicket to see it
will be my elder granddaughter, who thinks the thesis is, like, fantastic. I would debar every non-Christian Jew from any cultural
activity whatsoever, but then I am getting a little extreme in my old age. Our Catholic priests are debarred by their bishops from ever
mentioning the source of their troubles. Remember Coughlin? I feel this is a weak response, but what are we to do? We've spent 2,000 years getting to the point where we respect the views of others, but our enemies don't.


Lori in Utah said (May 13, 2006):

I left the theology-practice of religion because I believed, not because I wanted to sin or be a hedonist. Frankly, I got tired of being counted with a group of individuals who believed their god was a dolt, and frankly, a pussy.

So to answer your question, What are Christian's Pussies? Because that is what they must think of their God.


Trish said (May 13, 2006):

Zeph Daniel has done a few interviews on Channel Z at www.zephnet.com regarding this horrifying push to deconstruct Christ Jesus and promote paganism..

The book is almost unreadable.. I have not read it either, but for research purposes Zeph did purchase the audio book.. PAINFUL!

Some Christians have done some good work rebutting this, like Pastor Joe Schimmel, Pastor James Garlow, both of whom have been recent guests on Channel Z with Zeph.

One interesting thing about the book is that it is almost completely lies, including author Dan Browns assertion that it's based on fact.

Tragically, I'm sure that the film will probably influence more people even then the already supernatural success of the book.

Zeph says, this book does for *adults* what Harry Potter does for children..
