I, Gary DeVaney, am a retired US reserve Army officer. I love and will always defend my United States of America. I am defending it now by saying: I dislike and do not support the fascist, theocratic United States Government. I do NOT agree with: "my god, my country, my government, right or wrong".

Mix Religion, Government and Corporate-Capitalism and you have theocratic-fascism.

The current US theocratic-fascism Government doctrine: War is good for our economy. Invest your son!

Hasn’t mankind readily offered their children for their Government’s wars?

Military soldiers are slaves who are trained to kill and die. Some serve in support and maintenance of killing and dying. Politicians determine when and where soldiers kill and die. Soldiers are often to do the unthinkable. Politicians, without conscience, often order soldiers to do the unthinkable.

Most who apply morality to war are not directly involved. The most immoral wage the most effective wars. Their perceived morality is limited to their self-interest. They tend to demonize their enemy while being less moral than their enemy.

The blind believer mind-set: God is God and has the right to do anything He wants with us because He made us.

Can you tell God apart from who does not exist?

Is our US court system connected to the "STATE"?

When you are sworn-in to testify, do they require you to put your hand on the Bible and swear to God to tell the truth?

Like school prayer, don't the courts break the Constitutional Law of "separation of church and state" each time they make you do that?

Ok, concerning the Bible, where does Satan come in? Has any Satan killed any thing or anybody yet? No! Does Satan ever kill anybody? No! Try to prove it Biblically. Who does all the killing? The Biblical God does all the killing! God took the rap in Job 2:3 concerning the murdering of Job's children and servants. God had documented "Death Angels" to do His murdering. It is NOT clear that Satan was one of God's "Death Angels" as Satan is described to be a winged Cherubim. Is Satan depicted to be a "Serpent" or a figure with "wings"? How would any court throughout known history, have judged any tyrant, by trial, who performed the intentional crimes of destruction that God did?

If a "Space-Alien" attempted these crimes, wouldn’t Earth declare war against it? Which side would you fight on? Would you dutifully and cheerfully declare the alien to be Jesus; then, obey and offer sacrifice of your children for Jesus’ war?

Are you your government or religion when your government or religion kills you in the name of its God?

Have tyrannical leaders created religions and wars to conform the masses, through fear, to their wills?

Are wars but political agendas?

Wasn’t God depicted to repent and to be sad in His heart? Doesn’t this show human-like limitations, frailty and vulnerability in God? Most clergy insist that God is in control.

Doesn’t dogma state that what God creates is good and that God is good? But, doesn’t it also state that the world He created is bad and that we are conceived in sin?

Are human beings just in and of the world, or are they the creators of myth with their God just a flag of identity that flies over them?

Was the flood an opportunity for God to dispose of Satan? Did God dispose of Satan? Why not? Who proved to be the destroyer (adversary) of man? This Biblical God was!

Is God’s Bible a model of justification for the crusades, the inquisition, the holocaust, the slaughtering of North and South American Indians and the enslaving of Africans?

Why did God murder everybody with the flood? If it was because they didn’t obey, why did He murder all the babies? No babies were aboard on the arc. Only the 8 adults. Why did God kill all the animals on Earth minus a few? Can you define God’s justice? Has God changed? Clergy mostly say no. Is this your God?

What are your answers?

Believer: "Faith".

God’s solution to His marriage to human beings and disappointing children is to wipe them all out. Talk about divorce - God style! King Henry the 8th obviously took notice and beheaded his wives. Actually, God wiped out tons of people to fulfill agendas they had little to do with.

Was God’s apparent solution to a problem: Eliminate the people to eliminate the problem?

Why didn’t God make everybody good? Was His power limited? Was His agenda bad? Did God's agenda prove to be flawed? If it was perfect, why was God unhappy with it? God said He was angry. God said He was jealous. Anger and jealousy are not characteristics of perfection. Are they?

When believers say: "I believe", what does it mean? Does it mean that they accept that things happened the way they were presented?

Most believers "know" little about the Bible.

Or, could they, through fear, also be zealously supporting God’s actions, deeds and attitudes concerning, if intentional, the heinous crimes against all living things depicted in scripture?

Pastor Arnold Murray: Nebuchadnezzar was the King of Bablylon (today's iraq) who attacked and killed many of God's "chosen" Jews in Jerusalem. The "evil" King actually did God's will by killing and capturing the Jews that he took back to Babylon. In the 4 chapter of Daniel King Nebuchadnezzar actually wrote a prayer that ended up in the Bible. King Nebuchadnezzar, the enemy of the Biblical God's Jews, was a servant of the Biblical God. Can the words "hypocrisy" and "disloyality" properly describe this God?

Jeremiah 27:6 God said: I now gave all these lands to Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon, My servant.

Murray points out that God is in control and had King Nebuchadnezzar kill and capture His "chosen" to teach them a lesson. One lesson the Jews learned in capativity in Babylon was Zoroasterian religion from which the Jews adopted Heaven / Hell and Satan as part of their faith.

Being critical, how could anyone, who knows good from bad, right from wrong, possibly support The God (Authority) of The Old Testament? How can you support any church or Synagogue who promotes this heinous God?

This material, collectively, is against lies and projected falsehoods. Could you muster the courage to get your Bible out and verify some of the Bible passages selected in this work? Would you check yourself, occasionally, to see if you would have preferred ignorance over the facts discovered? Should we just be dumb animals? Haven’t lies always created havoc? Whether or not these facts bring you peace of mind is entirely up to you.

Believer: First, spiritual leaders are to oppose false teachers like you by overpowering you by the truth taught so clearly, precisely and powerfully that those who spread error hide in humiliation when their falsehood is exposed.

I publicly welcome any religious leader or layman to attempt humiliation concerning any topic on this website.

Examine the use of the word spiritual closely and you’ll probably discover fantasy. Bible facts: Are you interested in searching out the facts, or do you just assume to be a fear-based, feeling-oriented authority over the topic?

Do you value knowing the facts, or, would you prefer to ridicule or punish researchers who expose the facts. Just think, you can absorb thousands of hours of funneled-down research in just a couple of hours. Don’t you value the Bible and want to know what it says? The worst thing that could happen is you would know most of the Biblical trivia questions. Can your God hold up to this scrutiny? Can you?

Believer: I am afraid that God will punish me for not being what He wants.

Have people, in childhood, bought into and built up images of God that makes them do dumb things and / or troubles them as adults? Does your ego and how you feel about yourself directly relate to how you feel about other people and how you get along with them?

By taking self-responsibility, can we better build our self-image?

Gene theory: What we are programmed to know now has been learned in past life cycles and sparks of knowledge are being re-triggered by experiences during our current life cycle.

Genes remember. Check out the animals. Ego, however, cannot handle the perspective that our living, aware, and ever evolving genes control anything. Knowledge is the nemesis of fear.

To sacrifice: To bestow pain by killing, then to burn, destroy and sometimes consume the body of a virginal, flawless, innocent human or animal; having it take the place of the very guilty ones who perform the monstrous deed. Was not God’s sacrifice of Jesus Christ, supposedly, a sacrifice of a virgin?

Isn’t the highlighted part of this story similar to Judges 19:22-26?

Wisdom: Wisdom cannot be taught. Learn what you will; accept what you can use and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away. GWD

Would you ever think to create a colony of inferior life forms in your basement, then to sacrifice your only child for these life forms?

Didn’t the writers of the New Testament depict and promote this kind of insane scenario? Can you define diabolical mind? Let’s see now. God is good? His creations are bad? Hmmm - and, Who is to be feared? God? His creation, an unknown character who hasn’t yet been identified called Satan? Doesn't Satan lie, kill and deceive? Nooo! God does it all!

Yet again, how can the Biblical God, something supposedly perfect, create something imperfect? If God created something imperfect, He has to face the fact that He, Himself, if He exists, is imperfect. Anyone who regrets and repents has to be imperfect. Instead of correcting His imperfections, God destroys them. God wipes them out. Biblical history continues to prove that God did not do much better in His later attempts. Maybe this God feeds on suffering. Wouldn’t that be a shock?

Aren’t livestock in slaughter yards herded into the chutes while having some kind of blind trust, faith and belief? An old, long-whiskered Billy Goat is bribed by treats to go through the chutes. The stupid, younger goats "have faith" in him, follow him and get slaughtered. The old "wise goat" returns to lead other flocks to their destruction.

Does clergy rip off the souls and wills of mankind by coercing them to humbly conform, to follow dogma; to righteously throw away the uniqueness of their lives, if they have any?

Many people are brought up with threats and fear that an angry God lies in wait to punish them, now and for all eternity. Consider war. Don’t most people react to war by turning into monsters themselves and siding with the authoritative (God-like) monsters in charge?

Many children have recorded enough destructive tapes to face a life of dread until dead. Unfortunately, righteously indignant zealots re-trigger those tapes often throughout the puppet-human’s life journey. Fear tapes, once instilled in a child will never go away.

What can be done? The rare person, who becomes a wise, self-responsible adult, will tape over those tapes or re-program their hard-drive in attempt to erase their old paralyzing and cancerous influences. Separating fact from myth has to help. Human ego tends to deny that its programmed mind-set, prejudicial falsehoods are but programmed lies.

A manipulation / exploitation agenda: To demand the practice of believing in a false authority, like a god or religion, so that an assumed authority, one who exploits others, can successfully step in. These are the techniques of predators and parasites.

A sheep is an animal whose purpose is to be fleeced often and ultimately to be discarded or consumed. Either way, it is as if it’s identity never existed. GWD

Sheep become sheep, not human beings, as created by their unique DNA. Sheep genes predestine their predictable value and behavior as do people genes. The perspectives selected in this work tend not to major in minors.

Agenda: This work proves, by evidence, that the Bible is full of errors, conflicts and deception. In present day, if followed, it is an evil model for any civilization. You may choose to debate that it is not. For some, faith is one’s bottom-line answer to everything. Apply faith, and nothing else, to a bursting appendix to see the extent of its powers.

There are differences between debates and arguments. One difference is: A debate focuses on the topic. An argument focuses on control.

If God’s documented attitudes and deeds were identical to the character and conduct of someone who lives near you and your family, how would you feel towards him? Upon seeing his deeds, would you report him to the authorities? If not, would it be out of fear?

This investigation has exposed sufficient evidence to have become a prosecution. The cards are all played face up. It doesn’t hold back nor cover up. It openly presents its evidence. Check yourself. See if you tend to debate the facts or argue for control over the topic. Any debate won’t change the words that are written in the millions of Bibles.

Know All The Real Atheists

Is there only one God?

Is Jesus Christ God?

Is Jesus Christ the "One God of Abraham"?

Did Abraham know about, worship or speak about Jesus Christ?

If Jesus Christ is "The One And The Only God Of Abraham" and because the Jewish and Muslims religions deny that Jesus Christ is God, then, the Jews and the Muslims all prove to be Atheists.

GOD

The Study, The Investigation, The Prosecution

Interim Perspectives

You can’t create something out of nothing; yet, ideas do evolve into inventions.

I.B.M. exists. AT&T also exists as do countless corporations. Some vast corporations amount to “the civilization” of small countries. They came out of nothing but an idea that had not existed long before they were created. A “thought” (idea) can give birth to a creation, yet, if the thought is not acted upon, then supported, the creation can never exist.

Positive thinkers are dime a dozen; it’s the positive doers who make a difference. Ironically, most thinkers are not doers. Moreover, as long as something initiated, like a God, is financed, promoted and supported, it exists. If not financed, promoted and supported, it does not. Numerous Gods, and their believers, have come and gone throughout recorded history.

A corporation is a fictitious entity with an agenda and bylaws. All inventions start as a lie. A lie is a seed of creation, bringing something into reality. Without a lie, nothing is invented. The first time someone claimed that we can fly in airplanes, it was not real in time or in reality. The lie gave seed to invention.

The concept of corporations has become big business. However, numerous corporations have failed and disappeared as if they never existed. The concept of God was the first successful corporation. Many gods have come and gone - along with their believers. That is why God is promoted throughout the framework of big business. There is one word that can replace God every time. That word is authority. Test it. Corporations promote God so they can energize authority for their people to obey.

Because small businesses want to become big businesses, they also try to adopt the “Winning God Concept”. They, too, typically put the push on obedience.

Different “civilizations” amount to different “corporations” with their own bylaws (rules). “Gods” histories are often meta-physical, but as long as they are supported, they continue to exist. If the concept of civilization is not supported, we may go back to being monkeys.

Thus, one’s religion (the worship of one’s personal God) is one’s effort to worship and promote his or her own personal civilization; along with anything else he or she can invent and sell it to be. God pushers really try to convert (recruit) others to support their feelings and agendas.

Webster's Dictionary:

Civilization: A social organization of a higher order, marked by advances in the arts, sciences, etc.

Civilize: To bring out of a condition of savagery or barbarism; to instruct in the ways of an advanced society.

Civility: Good breeding, politeness, consideration, courtesy.

A “God” is an idea; a barbaric animal’s thinking approach to a civilizing concept. If one worships a God, one does tend to support his family, race, tribe, army, corporation or the government (civilization) it bonds with. Most seek a safe, civilizing concept, but, due to fear and insecurity, many promote the worship of a God. The danger to this concept is the “assumed authority” who competes to make a “civilization” function on his terms.

He “politically” serves himself by exercising his power and profit over others. He often sacrifices his “civilized” peasants by ordering them to kill and die, as a duty, in the service of his, often corrupt, agendas. “Corporations” are mini-civilizations in their own rite. They also promote the worship of God; so, while being served, the “corporation” also becomes “worshipped” (promoted) and it further benefits as a result.

A Human Being is an animal. Genetic studies have proven that Humans are genetically only about 2% different than Chimpanzees. Man’s religions were inventions, corporations, and fictitious entities that served as primal seeds in the impregnating of civilizations. Civilizations throughout the Earth are diverse. Because humankind’s animal genes are destructive and deadly, religions had totally atrocious and ugly histories. Throughout written history, what religion has been successful in producing a civilized society?

Christianity? No! Certainly not! More people have died in the name of the Christian God than for any other cause. Now, after studying and knowing the painful, destructive path religions took, what can we do to better the track record starting today? First, let’s mature. Can we come out of these dark ages, stop being fatalists, and redefine civilization’s laws and goals? Can we eliminate these destructive religions and their blackmailing God(s) from our programming? An agreement to establish and promote civil and criminal laws that unbiasly serves and protects everyone could be a good start.

A person who is describing his or her “personal God”, is generally providing a view of how “civilization” could better serve their “personal ego’s agenda” on it’s terms. Their ego is synonymous with their God. If their God is the Biblical God, their ego is dangerous.

A believer is one who does not think for oneself. A believer’s agenda is to follow, talk and obey the way they are programmed to follow, talk and obey.

A believer loyally and stubbornly competes against other agendas while resisting change.

A believer insists that any criticism of his or her beliefs be eliminated. They insist that any investigation be turned over to “the proper authorities” even if it is “the proper authority” who is being investigated.

Faith is a placebo effect. it gives power to those who give it power. To those who give it no power, it is ineffectual.

Faith / Obedience: When someone encourages you to have faith, they want you to obey something they influence.

Religious believers don’t get older and wiser. They just get older.

Part of being human is dealing with things unexpected, things unreasonable; learning things that go against blind pre-conceptions and risking to know the difference.

God: The Study, The Investigation, The Prosecution is really an ongoing work which will never be finished. As long as the Bible exists, criticism by thinking people will continue. On many levels, the works prove beyond the wildest doubt, that the evil commands and the modeling guidance of the God of the Old Testament were responsible for why man treats man as cruelly and poorly as he does.

Throughout the Bible, God prefers and chooses some over others. Constantly, those He chooses continue to sacrifice animals and murder much of mankind.

God starts off “face to face” with man. Then, He doesn’t operate directly with His chosen but through Angels. Then he runs things through prophets who advise the rulers and Kings. God becomes more absentee except “in spirit” (fantasy) as time goes on.

Each time when the Biblical God ordered Moses and Joshua to murder men, women and their babies for their land, He created a new holocaust. Each time God turned on Israel and had them slaughtered, He created a Jewish holocaust. Isn’t God still promising the entire world a final holocaust where all but his elect and / or chosen will suffer eternal damnation and punishment? Isn’t this God still acting insanely? How can sane people support Him? The only people who could possibly support this myth are the people who hate people.

Only about 50 years ago, over 6 million of God’s chosen Jews experienced “holocaust”. Would you care to define and sell rational people on their faith? By doing so, would you sit firm, without conscience or action, and watch those you have convinced experience the same fate? I would fight any alien force to prevent that type of event ever happening again and if it were against, God Himself, I’d hope He didn’t like it. What? I sound angry? What is right and wrong? You say: Obedience to God is right and the destruction of everything else is right, if He wills it. You say that you will destroy it all for God if He calls you to do so?

Karen Armstrong: From Auschwitz a group put God on trial for the Holocaust. They decided God should die. They sentenced Him to death. When the trial was over a Rabbi said: The trial has ended. God is guilty and deserves death. It’s time for the evening prayer. (“Genesis”, Paul Moyers)

Let’s examine how an ego has God-like traits similar to those characteristics defining the God of The Old Testament.

Observe these four perspectives:

Your relationship’s behavior does not require your approval.

Your relationship demands that you live by his / her values in your life.

Your relationship has decided not to account to you.

Your relationship wants another. You’re out, they’re in.

Your ego will react differently by shuffling different names where “relationship” is. The assumptions, contracts, agreements and the law may make your ego righteously jealous and possessive. Notice how these feelings promote different motivations. Are they not similar to the tantrums, motivations and acts displayed by the God of The Old Testament? Hypothesis: God and ego are synonymous.

What’s the point? We defend God’s cruelty because basically, we share the same genetic sensitivities, attitudes and motivations. Isn’t it the evil we are capable of that we fear and condemn in others?

Spiritual: A concept that is given birth by hidden or unknown feelings. Feelings compete against other feelings to manifest themselves into reality. Evil spirits are simply feelings that are in opposition to the dogmatic feelings and agendas that assume to be in charge. Competing feelings determine wills, actions and agendas. When a feeling acts to fulfill itself at the expense of others, it is often determined to be evil. Egos tend to praise the good feelings that serve them and to punish the bad spirits or agendas that oppose them.

Often what an ego sees as sin in another, it justifies as virtue in itself. Because the mighty ego (an assumed “God-fog” authority) cannot be wrong, it created that God, like itself, is good and the Devil (any adversary to it) is bad. Could this be the why and how Gods and Devils are born?

Genetically, we are issued one ego each. That is why the “God-fog” is so natural for a believer to muddle in. If a loving God created everything, why would He create an evil, malignant, contagious Devil to wreak havoc, pain and horror on an otherwise ideal world? The Jewish Torah projects no existence of any Devil. God does it all. Christian influence mainly claims the existence of Devils. Some more modern Jews have bought into Satan.

Perspective: Imagine, you were a cute little mouse with pretty pink ears and your father who created you, dropped you into a hungry snake cage. You face the bite that holds and chews while you feel your breath being slowly squeezed out of you, your ribs breaking. Then, you come to just in time to feel strong stomach acid dissolving your body. The Old Testament God created nature. In nature, this is a constant reality, not just a nightmare.

Did you ever figure out that governments, businesses, religions and other organizations absorb, in the name of God, the identities of persons much like the snake absorbs the mouse with the pretty pink ears? They typically demand: Believe in my way, serve me on my terms or be fired and financially die.

As long as a tyrant’s believers feared, they obeyed. Authoritarians led their believers to believe that without their God, protection, medicine or drug, they would die and suffer eternal-damnation. The agenda tends to tighten its hold on those who prove to serve it.

Aphorism: The more I learn, I realize, the less I know. At the rate I’m learnin’, I won’t know nothin’ in no time.

This work is designed to provide some knowledge and a few more memories of the more controversial passages the Bible contains. Can you take the time to correct those things you discover to be clearly wrong? Prove that this work is in error, by Biblical evidence, and the error(s) will be corrected. Also, your correction will be humbly appreciated.

Things most open to interpretation are not clearly worded or are contradicted elsewhere.

Truth verses Fact

Facts exist in reality and have no respect for feelings, attitudes, standards, principles, laws or preferences.

Your emotional intensity, your “do wants and don’t wants” concerning any identifiable feelings attempt to change facts into your truths. You are committed to your feelings and attempt to make them reality through what you forecast as truth. How tough and committed are you to your truth?

How much of your truth is absolute fact? Does your truth try to rewrite history in any manner? What is your motive to do that? Is it ever to establish control and / or attention? Is it to cause confusion for your own entertainment? What’s in it for you? Don’t some claim to be telling the truth while attempting to lie?

Q: Are you saying: This is fact or this is my commitment - what I feel committed to?

Believer: If the facts don’t suit my agenda, preferences or values, I feel justified in selling my projection of my truth in my attempt to rewrite history or rearrange things to be more favorable to my liking. If somebody has got to lose, it ain’t gonna be me or mine. I will lie and take my chances. It is my experience that people who confess and tell the facts suffer punishment.

Authoritarians use the fear of a wrathful God to exploit any inferior believers they assume authority over. Their ego-oriented agendas can be fulfilled through the service, servitude and labor of believers and their lives made better, often at the believer’s sacrifice. Slavery will still live on as long as there is any form of sacrifice or worship to a God.

The knowledge of this study may discourage your exploiting and manipulating others or at least prevent these things from being done to you. Con men, corporations, governments, bosses, generals, parents and their clergy spokesmen will denounce, hate, condemn and deny any such knowledge. Contrary to fearful hype, this knowledge does not promote anarchy as appreciation and obedience to rational civil and criminal law is sufficient for a functional, safe and healthy society. And the believers always come up with: But what if?

Analyze your debate. Do you tend to bring into the debate mostly dogma, supernatural stories and personal testimonies? Why continue to spread fairy-tales and non-sense? Can you produce any rational evidence and fact to support your claim that the Biblical God exists today and is good? No matter how angry you become, the answer is probably NO! Prove that you can and you will make history.

Believer: Oh, you wait! You make me mad! You just wait. My feelings are important! The rapture is coming and you’ll be sorry. I’m going to heaven! You’re going to hell!

Concerning the power-use of a fictitious God, the ones who know cause to suffer those who believe and don’t know. The believers, by suffering, enhance the lifestyles of those who know. As long as those who know can keep the suffering believers addicted, they won’t give up the God-concept. Believers pray, hope and have faith that they can suffer through it and move up to exploit others weaker than they; who are more ignorant and beneath them. Like a pyramid scheme, the battle rages on, because, all cannot afford for the more ignorant, stupid or stubborn to lose their addiction.

The concept of God and the sacrifice of His servants is not a symbiotic relationship, but one of exploitation. It is designed to make the believers live hard lives while their sacrifice allows those in authority to live easy lives. Could it all be based on a lie?

Victimized and victimizer believers may whine: By exposing this knowledge I hope you realize what you have done to us who believe! We in charge react righteously indignant, in that this knowledge robs us of our rightful destiny to rule and exploit others who fear. These facts cause me heartache and I refuse to share them with others close to me.

Victimizers: Presume to know the mind of God. Assume to stand in (substitute) for God; thus, become God. Assume the authority to conform (convert) others into their image.

Although the Bible contains some concentrated wisdom in books like Proverbs (KJV), Wisdom and Sirach (Catholic), it mostly promotes a slave agenda - a slave-mentality.

The very concepts of sacrifice and worship endears, even demands, a slave-mentality.

What amounts to God? Is one’s ego attachment to God as a model of unlimited authority? God, the fictitious model, can do no wrong because ego, the vanity, genetically assumes the right and the authority to do anything the ego wants. God, the model, is defended because ego, the fantasy, feels itself to be the value, the authority, the more important, the entitled.

God’s show up with as many faces as the Egos that project them. An ego defends the concept of its God in its defiant, yet denying, defense of its feelings. To insure security and importance, egos are constantly looking for the feelings support of other egos concerning their competing agendas and in their defense. Simply, if you support their ego-oriented feelings (gods), you support them. An ego only defends the god its feelings are attached to. God, in reality, is merely an extension of its ego-oriented feelings and denial of this is automatic.

Most egos tend to demonize other’s feelings (gods) as predictably as they demonize other egos. If one could understand and accept these perspectives, the defending behavior of believers concerning God, could become rationally perceived, accepted and understood.

Most believers, who zealously defend their feelings (their real gods) are, at best, displaying an ego manifestation. When their egocentric feelings and self-centered tactics are exposed, again, denial seems automatic and their threats of super-natural punishments frequently become their tactics of defense. It amounts to elementary voodoo!

When believers display and threaten what harm their God will do to you, they are merely showing what they would do to you if they could only get away with it.

If God were put on trial, a guilty verdict would be improbable as He would not be tried by a jury of His peers but by a jury of His fans. How could people who are emotionally needy and psychologically dependent on God find Him guilty of anything? GWD

Why do some parents bitch and complain to others about their children’s behaviors then, after denial, fire or take to court child-care workers who express similar complaints? Why do parents (and their lawyers) outright lie and deny the facts in court to defend their children when they know they are guilty of murder? Why do they lie and protect their gods in like manner?

Ally McBeal - Fox TV: A dying child in a hospital asked a visiting attorney: If I wanted to sue somebody, could you help me? The attorney said: Well, who did you have in mind?

God. I want to sue God.

He died... I cried. GWD

Religion and Science

Religions are based upon fear, blind faith and belief; to obey and to follow where ordered, without question.

Science is based upon a question, a theory, a deductive, measurable test, reproducible, upon which to draw consistent, accurate conclusions.

If just one car had existed back in the 1700s, it could have been considered magic or a miracle by the people who saw it. Millions of copies of cars existing in the 20^th century prove they are not magic, but products of science. Anything that can be reproduced at someone’s will, by a laboratory or by special effects on cue isn’t magic. It’s science.

Religion is primitive politics. The promoters of religion, like politicians, mostly have an agenda to control people and to affect their life-styles for some form of profit or service.

For one who knows, to bet against a believer is theft.

The dogma of Sin: Sin is without consent of God or man or most of all me.

Does something qualify as a gift if promised to you and given to another? Is it a gift if there's a price tag with it?

Doesn't this God really think only of Himself, or does He just enjoy terrorizing and murdering?

Could this God be a parasite of sorts, Who feeds on physical and emotional pain? Is disaster, fear, torment, frustration, anxiety, hate and anger, the main menu of His buffet? Is there any documented evidence here of such a character?

Do the sheep really want to know what their Farmer (God) has in mind for them? This also easily defines the behavior of selfish ego.

What is evident and really sad about modern humanity is - how we view this God-model is who we are. An individual is reluctant to deal with this material because it serves as a mirror of who he or she really is inside. We are still of monkey-mind serving a God of monkey-mentality. We don't want to know how ugly this God is and how ugly our true character potentials really are.

It is vogue to blame some adversary or Devil for our own lack of self-responsibility. Let us retire this Biblical God (primitive, monkey-mind model) and not repeat the past 4,000 years.

Let’s retire this “Holy Bible” to The Smithsonian Institute Library, as a part of mankind’s horrible history, where It belongs.

Agenda review: Again, if the wording confuses anybody, it could be because the material is extracted from The King James, The Catholic easy reading Bible and The Jewish Torah. The Torah covers only the first 5 books of the Old Testament: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. The Torah is the source the other Old Testament Bibles come from, chapter and verse. Rewriting the entire Bible verbatim is senseless. This agenda is to select and summarize bold, evident facts and meaningful information for the purpose of impact investigation. It holds evidence, proof, beyond a rational or reasonable doubt, that this Biblical God is not a good God and that the Old Testament Bible is not a good book. This work has become a full-blown prosecution of the Biblical God. This evidence also suggests that the believing egos who support this Biblical material are subject to the same mindless, destructive and re-cycling behaviors that are depicted within its pages; or, maybe it’s just all in our monkey genes. And yes, in this work, the Bible is paraphrased.

Everyone has the right to voice his or her own opinion. An unexpressed opinion is like no opinion at all. Another's opinion should not be censored any more than your own. If a fact influences or affects your life or the lives of your children, it is your business and you have a right to know about it. The contents of the Bible do effect you and your children. You deserve to know what the Bible's Chapters and Verses say. You are the judge. Judge courageously, judge honestly.

The Encyclopedia of Biblical Errancy by C. Dennis McKinsey Prometheus Books 1995

“When I started reading the Bible years ago, I was immediately struck by contradictions on almost every page. I didn’t have to go out of my way to hunt for them… Those who have been indoctrinated, actually brainwashed is a more accurate term, fail to see what is staring them in the face. There is none so blind as those who won’t see. Only after passing through the first 2 or 3,000 contradictions and inconsistencies is any real effort required. I made up my mind as to what the Bible is after studying the Book, not before.

There is more than enough evidence to expose the Bible for the fraud that it is.”

Thank you so much, Dennis. You are a 30 year (numerous thousands of hours) Biblical pioneer of keen wit and of awesome courage; and most of all, your documented evidence proves that you are correct, overall and specific. GWD

To you, the reader: Do you realize that in just a few hours of reading, you are exposed to an estimated 50,000 hours of concentrated Bible study compiled from some very credible and astute sources? Most thinkers, with above average intelligence and superior courage, can absorb much of this society-influencing information with a small time investment. Do you think that you would have ever gotten around to a like study on your own? GWD

Belief - Faith - Trust - Spiritual

Be spiritual! Just believe, have faith and trust me! These are words of scoundrels. Would you utter these words while denying medical attention as your child’s appendix ruptures? Would you merely pray if he or she were drowning in a pool? Apply that kind of wisdom to airplane mechanics and heart surgery.

Do you want to fly an airplane that is maintained by an agenda of prayer, faith and forgiving grace or one that is maintained by knowledgeable, hands-on mechanics? Don’t you want to know that your heart surgeon has skilled knowledge in proven procedures?

What the manipulative words “I believe” can often mean:

I want - I like - I hope - I wish - I expect - I pretend - I lie - I mislead - I follow - I obey - I support - I depend on, I assume - I take for granted - I fantasize - I dream - I hallucinate - I trust - I gamble - I insist on - I am committed to - I have no evidence - I really don’t know…

"I believe" could mean hundreds of things in the English language. It’s not dependable.

If one has evidence and honestly knows something, one states: I know it not I believe it. People often say I believe to deliver hypnotic suggestions. They are fishing for support and control over others. They use I believe to manipulate the minds and motivations of others, to test and see how gullible and willing others are to support their agendas. It has been done to believers throughout their lives and they unconsciously exercise their habit on others. When this is pointed out to the believer, denial is automatic. I believe usually presumes self-responsibility and commitment to reality and fact. When the believer proves to be in error, he (or she) often falls back on reminding all that he stated he believed and did not state that he knew. I believe is, at best, loose and misleading in conversation and intent. In religion, belief is strangely promoted to being sacred. Belief requires faith which is the giving up of seeking and knowing. In reality, the use of belief is often the hook of most soul-stealing clergy and other con men seeking power and profit over people.

Do you prefer to seek knowledge and actively control your destiny or to lazily believe, follow and coat-tail the agendas of others? For you to seek your own knowledge, you must be capable of questioning those things that you observe.

Ask some people what the word spiritual means to them. You may learn that spiritual, to them, may best describe fantasy to you.

Why Others Traditionally Support God

Specific, honest and composite:

Believer: Supporting God is a matter of tradition. It is smarter to support than to oppose tradition. Believers are afraid to “rock the boat”. We are afraid to be alone. Since childhood, we believers are programmed to fear and we all need emotional support.

Question: Is a fictitious cause necessary?

Believer: What could be better to support than something no one has a handle on?

Question: Weren’t child-sacrifice, witch burning and slavery once traditions supported by this God, believed in by believers and no longer observed by believers? Yes or no?

Believer: Well, I don’t want to think of it that way, but, I guess so - yes.

Question: If you lived in the time of witch burning and slavery, would you support it?

Believer: If God told me that was His will, of course. Wouldn’t you?

Question: No, I wouldn’t. If the Biblical God-model supported those things once, why isn’t it time for Him to go?

Believer: When in Rome, you do as the Romans do, or else. Give to Caesar his due. When you are in a boat out at sea with evil people, you had best support them or you will be over the side.

Survival also is traditional. If you are stuck around evil people and you don’t support them, you are in for some disapproval and punishment. God promised to judge them in the hereafter, so believers will have their vengeance. I approve of all the things God did in the Bible, as He is God, and I love Him. I just don’t want to hear or know any negative views of His deeds.

Question: Is that why you defend the evil you pretend to oppose?

Believer: He’s not evil. You just have to support tradition if you want to survive and get along.

Question: Don’t you examine what you are supporting?

Believer: No. With God, it’s a matter of faith. Who would want to know that we are wrong? It would be unbearable to know that we have been lied to concerning God. It would be even harder to acknowledge to ourselves that we passed those lies on to our children. We don’t want to discuss anything negative about God. He’s wonderful!

Question: Why do parents lie and make up stories to their children about God, Santa-Claus, the Tooth-Fairy and the Easter-Bunny?

Believer: Because, it’s traditional. It’s fun and harmless!

Question: Aren’t parents teaching their children to lie?

Believer: No! Because we don’t want to think of it that way.

Question: Don’t children grow up and then realize that their parents lied to them about highly sensitive and emotional topics and couldn’t that effect their judgment concerning the realities they later encounter in their own lives?

Believer: It doesn’t matter because they love their parents.

Question: How has the parental taboo of discussing sex with their children contributed to pregnancy statistics?

Believer: My parents got married when they had me. I was God’s plan. He loves me. God works in strange ways.

Question: So, love conquers all? But what kind of judgment processes do adults have as a result?

Believer: That’s where faith in God takes over. People have to be dependent upon and to fear something to be civilized. We are evil by nature.

Question: So, the slave mentality is alive and well?

Believer: Yes, we are all the Lord’s slaves and the brides of Jesus. Praise God. Satan is the god of this world and we can’t commit suicide. You are a sinner. Goodbye!

Do you support “Human Secularism”? Check out any American $1 bill. The image of a pyramid on it has an elevated caps-stone that dates from 1500 BC. Some say it represents God in the form of Amen-Ra, the ever-present eye? Does “Annuit Coeptis” in Latin mean “The King Sees? He (God) watches the peoples actions in life so that He may judge them in death. Below it is written “Novus Ordo Seclorum”, “A New Secular Order”. Are you sure you don’t, in practice, support a pagan religion and / or human secularism?

In the movie “The Associate”, Whoopi Goldberg’s character made up a fictitious partner the financial world believed in, which in turn, gave her some awesome attention, power and control. The greatest success story ever was when Moses invented his partner - God. The difference between the Moses and Whoopi stories is that in the end Whoopi admitted that she had been her invisible partner all the time.

Were Moses and Elijah both also in transfigured bodies?

Could Jesus go into His transfigured body while on the cross?

Can a transfigured body feel pain?

Did Jesus resurrect in His flesh body or His transfigured body?

Why didn't Jesus allow Mary to touch Him after the resurrection?

Did Thomas examine Jesus' flesh body or His transfigured body?

How did Jesus enter and leave the room that Thomas examined His wounds?

How does a transfigured body survive?

Was Jesus always and only a transfigured body?

Has anyone any evidence of a transfigured body?

---------------------------------------------------------------DECLARATION OF THE FREE

We have no falsehoods to defend. We want the facts; our force, our thought, we do not spend in vain attacks. And we will never meanly try to save some fair and pleasing lie.

The simple truth is what we ask, not the ideal; we've set ourselves the noble task to find the real.

If all there is naught but dross, we want to know and bear our loss. We will not willingly be fooled, by fables nursed; our hearts, by earnest thought, are schooled to bear the worst; and we can stand erect and dare all things. all facts that really are.

We have no God to serve or fear, no Hell to shun, no Devil with malicious leer.

When life is done an endless sleep may close our eyes. A sleep with neither dreams nor sighs.

We have no master on the land - no King in air - without a manacle we stand, without a prayer, without a fear of coming night, we seek the truth, we love the light.

We do not bow before a guess, a vague unknown; a senseless force we do not bless in solemn tone.

When Evil comes we do not curse, or thank because it is no worse.

When cyclones rend - when lightning blights, 'tis naught but fate; there is no God of wrath who smites in heartless hate.

Behind the things that injure man there is no purpose, thought, or plan. We waste no time in useless dread, in trembling fear; the present lives, the past is dead, and we are here, all welcome guests at life's great feast - we need no help from ghost or priest.

Our life is joyous, jocund, free - not one a slave who bends in fear the trembling knee, and seeks to save a coward soul from future pain; not one will cringe or crawl for gain. The jeweled cup of love we drain, and friendship's wine now swiftly flows in every vein with warmth divine.

And so we love and hope and dream that in death's sky there is a gleam. We walk according to our light, pursue the path that leads to honor's stainless height, careless of wrath or curse of God, or priestly spite, longing to know and do the right.

We love our fellow-man, our kind, wife, child, and friend.

To phantoms we are deaf and blind, but we extend the helping hand to the distressed; by lifting others we are blessed.

Love's sacred flame within the heart and friendship's glow; while all the miracles of art their wealth bestow upon the thrilled and joyous brain, and present raptures banish pain.

We do not pray, or weep, or wail; we have no dread, no fear to pass beyond the veil that hides the dead. And yet we question, dream, and guess, but knowledge we do not possess.

We hope and wait.

Robert Ingersoll

(from his lecture About The Holy Bible)

Submitted by Jim Hurtman

Does the Old Testament satisfy this standard?

Is there anything in the Old Testament - in history, in theory, in law, in government, in morality, in science - above and beyond the ideas, the beliefs, the customs and prejudices of its authors and the people among whom they lived?

Is there one ray of light from any supernatural source?

The ancient Hebrews believed that this earth was the center of the universe, and that the sun, moon and stars were specks in the sky.

With this the Bible agrees.

They thought the earth was flat, with four corners; that the sky, the firmament, was solid -- the floor of Jehovah's house.

The Bible teaches the same.

They imagined that the sun journeyed about the earth, and that by stopping the sun the day could be lengthened.

The Bible agrees with this.

They believed that Adam and Eve were the first man and woman; that they had been created but a few years before, and that they, the Hebrews, were their direct descendants.

This the Bible teaches.

If anything is, or can be, certain, the writers of the Bible were mistaken about creation, astronomy, geology; about the causes of phenomena, the origin of evil and the cause of death.

Now, it must be admitted that if an infinite Being is the author of the Bible, he knew all sciences, all facts, and could not have made a mistake.

If, then, there are mistakes, misconceptions, false theories, ignorant myths and blunders in the Bible, it must have been written by finite beings; that is to say, by ignorant and mistaken men.

Nothing can be clearer than this.

For centuries the church insisted that the Bible was absolutely true; that it contained no mistakes; that the story of creation was true; that its astronomy and geology were in accord with the facts; that the scientists who differed with the Old Testament were infidels and atheists.

It required many centuries to force the theologians to this admission. Reluctantly, full of malice and hatred, the priests retired from the field, leaving the victory with science.

They took another position;

This is the issue now. Is the Bible any nearer right in its ideas of justice, of mercy, of morality or of religion than in its conception of the sciences? Is it moral?

It upholds slavery -- it sanctions polygamy.

Could a devil have done worse?

Is it merciful?

In war it raised the black flag; it commanded the destruction, the massacre, of all -- of the old, infirm. And helpless -- of wives and babes.

Were its laws inspired?

This is savagery -- not philosophy.

Is it just and reasonable?

The Bible is opposed to religious toleration -- to religious liberty. Whoever differed with the majority was stoned to death. Investigation was a crime. Husbands were ordered to denounce and to assist in killing their unbelieving wives.

It is the enemy of Art. "Thou shalt make no graven image." This was the death of Art.

Palestine never produced a painter or a sculptor.

Is the Bible civilized?

It upholds lying, larceny, robbery, murder, the selling of diseased meat to strangers, and even the sacrifice of human beings to Jehovah.

Is it philosophical?

It teaches that the sins of a people can be transferred to an animal - to a goat. It makes maternity an offence for which a sin offering had to be made.

It was wicked to give birth to a boy, and twice as wicked to give birth to a girl.

To make hair-oil like that used by the priests was an offence punishable with death.

The blood of a bird killed over running water was regarded as medicine.

Would a civilized God daub his altars with the blood of oxen, lambs and doves? Would he make all his priests butchers? Would he delight in the smell of burning flesh?

Ideology

Ideology as Opposed to Philosophy

Ideology

Ideology is a format of mind-set believing.

Ideology focuses on ideals instead of the issues or topics being rationally debated.

Ideology promotes traditional beliefs and a narrow way of life.

Ideology presents dogmatic, authoritative attitudes and mind-set values.

Ideology illustrates and promotes unrealistic, metaphysical and supernatural ideals.

Ideology shuns facts, evidence, logic, reason and reality.

Ideology argues, by threat, for authoritative control.

Ideology promotes: "Shut up and have blind faith".

Ideology avoids and shuns rational topics, facts and perspectives that conflict with the ideology.

Ideology tells you to conform and how to live your life – or else.

Mind-set believers follow and conform to inflexible ideology, and thus, follow their lives.

God's Perfect Laws

By

Gary DeVaney

Is the Biblical God "good and perfect"? Did God give human beings "perfect" laws to obey? Did this "unchanging" and "in control" God stand by and honor His own laws?

Let’s put to the test one of God’s Bible-documented perfect laws:
