125 Google: Big Brother's Favorite Tool

Despite all attempts of presenting itself in the light of a youthful, innovative and user-friendly Corporation with best interests for you, the end user, the way Google has been developing lately, especially with their most recent moves, reveals clearly who they are really working for.

By investing their energies and resources in technologies that serve not only to hunt down those guilty of minor copyright infringements in their releases on Google Video, (which, by the way, will soon stop its upload service), but in the near future will also enable authorities (or anyone who does or does not like you, for that matter) to locate you anywhere at any given time on God's (or Google's?) earth, the multi-billion dollar machine has proven that what it really is concerned about is not the flow of information that goes out to the people, but the flow of information about the people to the Orwellian "Big Brother" complex, whose interest lies primarily in controlling, manipulating and exploiting the masses to the last drop.

First of all, if you were interested in the spreading of information into all directions, (not just from the bottom to the top), it would be plain stupidity to delete a video just because it contains part of a song that some record company holds the rights to, especially if it's a song that hardly anybody knows.

If you had two cents worth of brain in your skull, as an entrepreneur you should be happy if anyone advertises your product for free. If your product is any good, and people will get a taste of it, they might like it and find out where they can purchase it.

By banning any and all copyrighted content, you can rest assured that the product will remain unknown throughout most of the world. Congratulations, you losers!

But then again, for those of us familiar with what a slop wash "show-business" really is, it's no big secret that the record companies are not necessarily interested in promoting artists with Christian, edifying or politically provocative messages, but rather, keeping a lid on them, so that they can keep pouring out their preferred "art" on the market, that will further enhance the growth of mass stupidity, materialism, violence in all sorts of public places, (especially schools), and the reduction of the world's surplus population by driving as many of us as they can to the edge of suicide.

The masters of the New World Order aren't as interested in your hearing Nicole McMullen or other innocent artists as much as they want your kids to go berserk to the tunes of Rammstein and Marilyn Manson, so that they can come in and save you from the mess they themselves created.

As with politics and other branches of big business, a certain product or new trend may look promising, such as the current, 21st century version of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" in D.C., but the reality of the final outcome and end result may be hard to swallow a little further down the road.

Except perhaps for those familiar enough with Bible prophecy to know that we all should be prepared for unpleasant surprises.

While current articles about Google's latest endeavor to enable users to be tracked down anywhere, anytime in the world make it sound like just another communication-friendly and cute "sociable" device, in the light of the fact of what brand of people are running this whole show with their New World Order mantra (on whose band wagon Google must have undoubtedly jumped a while ago), it makes "1984" sound more prophetically accurate than ever.

Only that the real nightmare began with a much more "family-friendly" air about it, that sounded almost too good to be true, so that only the most suspicious and paranoid wouldn't fall for it.

Thanks to the "new boss" (same as the old boss) and his bills that are keeping the exact opposite of what he originally promised, and collaborators like Google, the internet as we know it, as a reliable source of alternative information to the mainstream media slop is probably going to be history very soon.

After all, the number of those on the U.S. government's "terrorist" list is growing daily, and it consists of anything but terrorists, but of 5-year-olds and anyone who has a different opinion than that which is the official mantra from the opinion makers running the media, and Google wants to have a piece of the pie when the new "Führer" climbs the international throne, and thus won't give a voice to dissenters much longer.

The temporary free flow of information in both directions was probably good for the NWO clan to find out where we're all at, and now that they've got our name and number, plus Google's newly developed tracking device, the "clean up" is going to go a lot quicker than it took in Hitler's Germany, Stalin's Russia or Mao's China.

The color of skin, the nationalities and the faces of the players may have changed, but the general tactics remain the same, although over time they may have gotten a little more sophisticated.

How did Bruce Hornsby put it?

"That's just the way it is;

some thing will never change..."

124 Big Picture Vol.1-3


Of all good things there are three.

Three versions of God: Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Yet One.

Three atoms to every water molecule. Yet they form one entity.

There are three editions of what I like to call "The Big Picture."

One is here and has probably always been.

The second one is here and has come forth from the first.

The third will be, and will consist of both previous ones. And it will stay forever.

The first edition of "The Big Picture" is the Spirit World -dwelling place of God and His Holy Family, expanding to probably countless of His sons and daughters, both, faithful and fallen. While it would probably take an eternity to catch up on the information that presently eludes us concerning this part of the Big Picture, it probably is also the one that is the least attractive or interesting to most of us.

The 2nd version or part of the Big Picture is the physical realm, what we call the universe, including the time line of its history, and is so to speak a product of the former, since it was information uttered by God that brought it into being (see Hebrews 11:3).

It's the one that usually intrigues us the most. Partly because it's "ours,"

at least for the time being. It's probably not incorrect to say that this part of the Picture is in a somewhat imperfect state.

The 3rd and final stage of the Big Picture is the combination of BP1 and 2:

the Spirit World and the physical realm united and merged into one.

This event is forecast and described in such places as the Book of Revelation, when it talks about the Abode of God coming down from Heaven to dwell on (a new) earth forever (Rev.21:1-5).

The final and ultimate version of the Big Picture will be this one, the 3rd, and it will probably shed more light on both previous ones for its inhabitants, if such a thing as "previous" will be of any relevance.

But I do think so, since God isn't known to easily discard origins or dishonor his chosen patriarchs.

While man has presently contented himself with the confidence that his heritage is that of tree-climbing mammals, God has never been thus cruel to us, to deprive us of a slightly nobler past and heritage, even if it begins with nothing more than 2 perfect, naked humans in a perfect place, unfortunately not perfectly happy with it.

What we consider fairy-tales, God calls our history, and when history will be done, then I guess we will know what will have been fairy tales, and what the reality.

The reality of God, as announced in BP3, will be greater than any fairy tale man could have ever cooked up.

123 Monkey See, Monkey Do

Coming to grips with the fact that we're probably closer to the end of the world than most of us are willing to admit, always keeps drawing my thoughts back to its beginnings.

Life is a constant choice between positive or good and valid input and information, and its negative, non-valid, bad counterpart.

Only discernment and experience teach us to know the difference.

We're all basically standing at the same tree as did Adam and Eve.

The only difference is, all around us are billions of people who have already tasted the fruit of the knowledge of evil (= bad information), and they're all telling us, "It's good! C'mon, take a bite! I've done it, too! It's the only way!"

We don't only have the Devil to deal with in our struggle to resist temptation, but also his favorite weapon of the century: peer pressure.

What once used to require cunning persuasion on his part now merely takes an appeal to our basest herd instincts: "Monkey see, monkey do."

There's a lot of "input" out there, and it's pretty tough to know which of it is good and which is bad. It's not easy to make an estimate, but I'd say probably 90% of what bombards us is mostly negative.

The difficult thing is, that the Enemy is smart enough not to hand us 100% pure evil information, but what makes it all the more dangerous and deceptive is that he always mixes it with some truth.

Nothing has changed about that since his first sales talk. After all, it was true that they weren't going to die physically at the time they ate of the fruit, and we already expounded on that it was true in a sense that they became like gods, if even God Himself calls them thus later on in His Word...

So, I guess the conclusion is that nothing saves us from bad info, except the experience of what happened once we swallowed and accepted it...

It builds us up in a wrong way.

It feeds your ego, but not your soul.

It may fill your head with "knowledge" but doesn't make you one bit wiser.

It may lead you to the conclusion that "there is no God," and that you and your own kind are the only masters and heroes of the universe, and yet leave you utterly ignorant of the fact that in God's dictionary, you thus become the perfect definition of a fool.

It may make you feel hip and cool, but on God's thermometer you may merely amount to the status of "lukewarm."

You may think you're "hot 'n' heavy," not realizing that you've been weighed in the scales of the Creator of the universe, and found wanting.

What it all boils down to when all the dross and muck has up and gone into smoke and vapor is the truth: coming to face yourself for what you really are, namely not much, if anything at all, without a connection with the One Who put you on the planet, and the single Authority on why.

But that's a great place to start, because it begins the process of your willingness to absorb the other stuff, that formerly totally unattractive type of input you would have sneered at when you still thought you were the king of the hill.

It may not immediately make sense to you... But slowly, as you keep immersing your soul and parched spirit in it, eventually it begins to make sense, and you begin to derive so much information out of even one formerly seemingly meaningless phrase, such as, "In the beginning was the Word..." (John 1:1)

It all began with information... the right kind of input, and... yeah, you want more of it! Lots more!

122 Perfect People

The Devil was actually right when he promised Adam and Eve, "Ye shall be as gods," if they would eat of that forbidden fruit of knowledge of good and evil.

It was a necessary process to really learn the difference between good and evil. I mean, a "god" who wouldn't know right from wrong would be like a grown up man who doesn't know where left and right is, right?

Of course, what he didn't tell them was the ugly detour it was going to take to get there. Ugly for some, that is, namely those who weren't interested in just the temporary counterfeit achievement of acting like a little "god" right here on earth...

The Abels of history have continued to suffer at the hand of the Cains until this very day, and all they have in this life is the promise that "we shall be like Him" (1John3:2). That will be the only way we're ever truly going to be God-like.

Instead of swallowing the Devil's propaganda and advertisements, we'll listen to what the real Boss has to say, and thereby qualify for genuine divinity (see Ps.82:6, Isa.41:23 and John 10:34, 35).

It's alright to want to be perfect, I suppose. One just has to come to grips with the fact that it will never happen in this life, and the only way to get there is His way, and not every other neon-lights flashing broadway that seemeth right unto man, but the end thereof is hoodlum.

It's true that our imperfection sucks. Big time. But I have it on good authority that Perfection is not the absence of imperfection, but the ability to integrate imperfection.

If God uses our imperfection to perfect His Big Picture according to His idea (and after all, He's the Master Artist), and by integrating us in His great work of art having some of His perfection rub off on us, who are we to criticize Him?

After all, we may be gods, but not God.

Obama: Yet Another Creep!


At first I felt a little bad about the line in my "Farewell Mr. President" song to Bush, after Obama got elected, that says, "So, come on get down off your thrown, make room for yet another creep," thinking it was perhaps a little exaggerated ad out of place.

After all, there seemed to be genuine signals that Obama was bringing about positive changes indeed, like the executive order to close down Guantanamo.

Well, after having just watched only the first half of "The Obama Deception," I humbly admit that my wife had a better sense of discernment than I did, and that "creep" seems to have been, rather, a compliment.

I never would have thought it possible that she was right when she said, "But what if he's worse than Bush?" - Impossible, I thought.

Well, that's whatcha get for thinkin'...

Woe is us.

121 Den of Thieves

Someone called me up some time ago and said, "You're the only dude on the Internet who's giving his music away for free."

Well, maybe so. But I've got it from Someone Who I consider a greater and more reliable authority on happiness than those John Denver referred to as "them money-hungry fools."

You never read about Jesus charging an entrance fee for His sermon on the mount, nor did He charge for a single one of His fish sandwiches (although I'm sure He could have raked in a fortune). It just wasn't in Him.

His credo was, "Freely ye have received, freely give," and in my opinion one of the greatest disgraces about Christendom is the machine of commerce that it has been for more than 16 centuries, with no improvement in sight anywhere (at least not voluntarily).

Thank God the Antichrist is going to appear some time to put an end to all of that with his "mark of the Beast," which will divide the wheat from the chaff, anyway.

Jesus made it pretty plain what he thought of that commercialized hybrid of religion or spirituality when He chased the vendors out of the temple. Imagine Him coming to the Vatican or your average drive-in church nowadays, or the mega-temples of the star evangelists. He probably knows why he chose to appear 2000 years before things would get really sick.

Of course, nobody ever believes all that stuff He had to say about not being able to serve God and Mammon (the god of riches), and about the birds in the air and the lilies of the field, and that the heavenly father would supply all our needs, just as He does theirs, if we would only seek first His Kingdom.

"Seeking first" the Kingdom would mean that that's what you'd invest the majority of your time and efforts in, instead of raking in all the cash you can.

If you dedicate your time to serving Him and making sure that folks get His message (without having to pay a fortune for it), then, He says, He will also take care of your needs.

If you preach the Gospel and spread the Good News, then He'll make sure that you can also live off the Gospel. Of course, if you only preach to those who've heard the Gospel a thousand times or more, and they're willing to pay a fortune for your sedating sermons that will assure them they'll escape the wrath of God for our collective selfishness and greed, then you'll have good cards as far as the god of this world is concerned, and the game that he's playing, but God may think differently about that kingdom you have built for yourself.

It's called "modesty," a trait long forgotten and forlorn, and it has an even more recent hero than Jesus and His early followers, namely the Italian monk St. Francis, who bucked the tide of the religious supermarket of his day and decide to be content with little for a change.

He saw a lot of misery, but I also believe that he knew more true happiness than most other folks in his day.

One of the secrets of life is the art of not falling for every single temptation the Devil offers us along the way; it's the art of saying "No, thank you!" every once in a while, "I already have enough."

I guess some people are starting to reap the first repercussion of the "never enough" attitude that has been prevailing in our modern, enlightened Western society for the past decades. But will we really have learned the lesson when and IF the economy recovers?

Book Review: "The Dawkins Delusion?" by Alister McGrath

Apart from the fact that 10.-€ for a booklet of 78 pages seems a bit overprized, this flaw might have been overlooked if the content of those pages would at least have made up by quality what lacks in quantity. Alas, it is not so. The very thing McGrath holds against Dawkins, namely that by lack of information, his bias and repetition of dogma, Dawkins is doing the science community a disservice, McGrath becomes guilty of himself, in that he reflects rather negatively on the Christian community.

If this is all that Christianity has to answer to folks like Dawkins, then woe is us, and no wonder people are being annoyed by our faith. Such lukewarm religion has never done anyone any service.

McGrath seems to have absolutely no clue about what "Intelligent Design" actually represents, but in a totally ignorant and uniformed manner repeats the same mantra about ID that is coming from the atheist camp. Only one hour of his doubtlessly precious time, devoted to watching the documentary "Unlocking the Mystery of Life" would have saved him from probably perpetual embarrassment.

If you're looking for a book that will strengthen your faith in God, or would arm you with solid arguments to counter Dawkins' disciples all around us, don't buy this book. It would have been bad enough and perhaps tolerable as a blog or free e-book, but is frankly, not worth the paper it's printed on.

120 The Heavens Declare

One drift that is currently or since a few years going around on the web is the notion that since there are so many similarities between ancient deities and religions and the story of Jesus, Christianity and its whole story must be a fabrication, and some go as far to claim that religion altogether seems to be a plot cooked up by the Illuminati to enslave mankind.

Certainly these people must be doing the Illuminati or whatever forces intend to enslave mankind a great favor by spreading their erroneous idea.

While it may be reasonable to conclude that similarities, such as the resemblance between the Babylonian "son of god" Tammuz and Jesus must be more than a coincidence, just as much as it was reasonable for Darwin to conclude from his observation of finches on Galapagos that changes are happening within creatures that help them to adapt to their environment, when that same train of thought and "reason" is spun further to an extreme, total nonsense comes out of it.

You've got to know when to tell your own mind to "stop! Thus far and no further!"

What the great conspiracy theory heroes like the producer of the movie "Zeitgeist," and other similar Youtube productions, or Reptilians-Specialist David Icke fail to see is the very legitimate reason for the similarities between the Gospel story and the tales of previous religions of Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Greece and Rome: These ancient religions were all based on astrology. And while millions of Christians around the world pee in their pants at the mere utterance of the world "astrology" because they know that it's one of the corner stones of witchcraft and paganism, their sin of fear is depriving the world of some very valuable and ancient knowledge, which tends to become forgotten, but does not have to be.

The secret is that God had written the Gospel story in the stars, way before we ever saw it unfold, exactly like it is said in the Psalms:

"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handiwork.

Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.

There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath He set a tabernacle for the sun." (Psalm 19:1-4)

We all know that passage and love it because it sounds so mystically poetic, but few people really know what it means. Thankfully, some people do, and have overcome their fears of what fellow Christians might think of them if they would write a book about naughty, naughty astrology, and if enough people cared about the truth, we could all relax in the knowledge that it was God, not the Devil, who created not only the stars "for signs and for seasons" (Genesis 1:14), but also the zodiac.

According to William D. Banks and his book "The Heavens Declare," the origins of the zodiac dates back to Enoch (yes, the guy who walked with God, and "wasn't found," and from whom we've got the word "inch," coincidentally). The word zodiac having its true origins in Hebrew ("the path" - coincidentally the name Early Christians gave their new faith among believers), and prophetically telling the story of Jesus, the "Lamb slain from the foundation of the world" (Rev.13:8), - depicted in the star sign Aries, the ram, or lamb - beginning with the virgin Mary (Virgo), telling about the price He would pay (Libra) to free us from the grip of the Enemy (Scorpio) by pointing the arrow of His truth at his heart (Sagittarius), being the Scapegoat for our sins (Capricorn), pouring forth the waters of His Word (Aquarius), gathering His church [called-out ones] (Pisces) to be a Coming Ruler (Taurus), representing both God and man, King and servant, Savior and sufferer in one (Gemini), to gather His flock into His fold (Cancer) upon His Return as the rightful Heir, King and Ruler over all (Leo), to give the gist of the story in a nutshell.

The names of the stars in these signs have in all "speeches and languages," as Psalm 19 says, told the Story of "the One that was to come" for millennia before His actual birth, and since the stars were a major source of information to the scholars and wise men of the ancient empires, it's no wonder that their religion sounded so similar to what Christianity would become.

To conclude that the similarities between them are a result of man concocting His own idea of God is comparable to Darwin's conclusion that creation "concocted" itself - the only tolerable explanation for those who refuse to make room for God in their lives, regardless of the fact that life could never have created itself without information or intelligence, which always - undeniably and without exceptions - has an Author.

Conspiracy authors and filmmakers are thus unwittingly contributing to the cause of the very forces they try to expose, by tossing the only solution and hope of freedom for mankind into the same pot, confining humanity to the mental prison of an existence for no particular reason or purpose which already has created more misery than any other dogma in the past century.

The only hope they offer is that one day mankind will become enlightened enough to save itself from its own stupor, which generally is the same basis of all false religions and philosophies from Cain to Marx, based on the self-righteous assumption that one kind of people - for whatever reason - is better than the other, and thus deserves the position of power and authority over them. If that doesn't sound like NWO-Philosophy, what else does?

The dilemma with the world is that nobody ever realizes that the attitude that they know better than God is precisely the predicament that has landed them in the mess they're in.
