		<description>&lt;i&gt;"Jesus is just all right with me!  Jesus is just all right, oh yeah!"&lt;/i&gt;

It kills me the way fundamentalist Christians so blatantly ignore the teachings of Jesus.  These "biblical literalists" emphatically do &lt;b&gt;not&lt;/b&gt; live the literal truth of his words.  If they did, Christianity would be a very powerful force for good indeed.

The Gnostic Jesus, taken literally, is terrifying.  Here we have a man who fully assumed his divine birthright, his not by virtue of being the Son of God, but by virtue of being a &lt;i&gt;man&lt;/i&gt;, a human being.  What's terrifying is that this divinity is available within all of us; we just have to seek it out.</description>

		<description>Another thing:

Even growing up in a fundie environment I was always told that Jesus &lt;i&gt;is one's second chance&lt;/i&gt;.  Therefore there must be a third, fourth, fifth ad infinitum -- if you uphold that Jesus was divine -- like these people say they believe to be the truth.  But the ideas they adhere to are so unspiritual and incurious.  Perfectly evil!

They spent so much time talking about and referring to The Great Deceiver, but never thought to point that lens upon themselves.  Which is what Jesus himself would have done.  This is a sign of psychosis.  It's also a sign of the end of something.

The thought has just occurred to me, that it could be the reason for endtimes prophecy and such to actually, actively destroy the notion of Jesus' divinity, therefore humanity, so that there will no longer be any greater force than the empire and its whims to guide its people.  To treat Jesus, God and all creation with such whimsical brutality is sick.  But without Jesus, being supplanted as he is with obviously twisted religious programming, there would no longer be anything to thwart the cruel intentions of the archons.  Perhaps no truer a statement has been made, but on the bumperstickers of cars driven by fundamentalists:

No Jesus No Peace:  Know Jesus Know Peace

Indeed.  

Jesus has been replaced with an eagerness for cruelty and hatred and destruction.  They have also named that Jesus.

		<description>Ooooheeee Garrett, great summary and commentary.  Dramatic where it needs to be and I love your contextualization with the ostrich burgers.  LOVE IT!

That said:  I didn't begin by trying to fuck up the guy's lines.  I just realized that he began fucking up a lot and was making increased glancing eye contact with me.  The moment I noticed this it stopped and could influence him no longer.  It was like the intention was lost.  Sorta like Zac's stuff on magick.  It was as if when my eyes showed dreamy disengagement the speaker began to feel at ease, but when I fully concentrated on him at an unrealized unconscious level, with every cell in my body in total and full engaged psychic contradiction to his and his organization's means and purpose he began to quake with uncertainty.

Maybe it was nothing.  But I don't think so.  Humans have had millions of years to develop their subconscious responses to facial expression.  I believe that in an inarticulable way the speaker/minister/script reader felt as though he was "discovered", found out -- the gig was momentarily up when the fullness of my free consciousness entered into his realm.  He saw it on my face.  Then again maybe not.  

You know that thing you can do with a boring teacher?  If you look at them they will gravitate to you and if you act uninterested and seem preoccupied they tend to stay away?  Same thing here.  But this guy didn't know his script good enough I've realized.  He would have loved to wander around the stage, but then he wouldn't be fulfilling his church's &lt;i&gt;business commitment&lt;/i&gt; with It is Written Ministries, because the instructions call for exactly what we witnessed last night -- stand at a lectern, recite the schpiel and pretend you got away with convincing everybody that what you were saying was coming from you.

In a SANE universe that was coming to an end, as they're so eager to embrace the physical and psychic destruction of, they would have had a Q and A at the end and not have gone with the scripted approach.  But as we saw so distinctly last night, &lt;i&gt;it is important to somebody&lt;/i&gt; that it is released, this urgency and panic of being a sinner in the end times to take complete psychic control over their subjects.  Also as we saw last night, everybody else is an enemy of God.

"If you get a second chance, then you get a third and a fourth and a fifth".
