POPSInvisible Christian Privilege Through constant propaganda that tells them that this is so. Looking back to my Michele Bachmann piece a couple days ago , you can see the modern roots of this propaganda in Francis Schaeffer’s “How Should We Then Live” documentary series.

POPSThe National Menorah--An Establishment of Religion? Where is the ACLU now? Is there no separation of synagogue and state? Legal challenges about church and state are always filed, but apparently Christianity is the only one being singled out in such challenges. (And no, the Christmas tree is not a Christian symbol on the White House lawn, but one of paganism and Deism).

POPSBritain's (and America's) Secret Religion--Deism
This recent article begins with "the world's most famous atheist" becoming a Deist, i.e. Professor Antony Flew. The reason was this: New scientific discoveries persuaded him, he said, “that intelligence must have been involved” in producing life. In other words, natural reason necessitates belief in a Creator. But the article goes on to describe the difference between Deism, Atheism, and Theism. Any discerning reading (contrary to modern Christian attempts) of America's founders and documents absolute supports that they were not Christians, but Deists, whom, like Thomas Paine, sometimes quoted the Bible, but denied its historical trustworthiness and inspiration, and denied miracles recorded, etc.. It appears Deism is likely to be revived as natural "intelligent design" (which is Deistic, but anti-scriptural philosophy) is made popular and too difficult to deny. Deism is incompatible with Christianity but compatible with Freemasonry, like the Founders.

POPSDeism,Christianity and the founding fathers Although orthodox Christians participated at every stage of the new republic, Deism influenced a majority of the Founders. The movement opposed barriers to moral improvement and to social justice. It stood for rational inquiry, for skepticism about dogma and mystery, and for religious toleration. Many of its adherents advocated universal education, freedom of the press, and separation of church and state. If the nation owes much to the Judeo-Christian tradition, it is also indebted to Deism, a movement of reason and equality that influenced the Founding Fathers to embrace liberal political ideals remarkable for their time. David L. Holmes David L. Holmes is Walter G. Mason Professor of Religious Studies at the College of William and Mary and the author of The Faiths of the Founding Fathers (2006).

POPSPalin Supports and Promotes Freemasonry Her recent declaration, April 2008, encourages, supports, and promotes various Masonic secret societies which are anti-Christian in their secret oaths, rites, symbolism, and ceremonies that push a philosophical and spiritual global agenda behind their outward charities. Even the anti-Christian Deist Thomas Paine wrote that freemasonry can be traced back to Druidism . Freemasonry teaches Deism and rejects the authority of scripture (while they hypocritically swear upon it), and takes a Deistic interpretation of the Bible. Again, the "christian conservatives" should take note of what "their candidate" is really all about instead of being naive. (Bush is a member, like Kerry too, of Skull & Bones).

POPSJefferson Bible reveals Founding Father's view of God, faith "Like many other upper-class, educated citizens of the new republic, including George Washington, Jefferson was a deist. Deists differed from traditional Christians by rejecting miraculous occurrences and prophecies and embracing the notion of a well-ordered universe created by a God who withdrew into detached transcendence. Critics of the time regarded deism as an ill-conceived attempt to reconcile religion with scientific discoveries. For rationalists in the Age of Enlightenment, deism was one of many efforts to liberate humankind from what the deists viewed as superstitious beliefs."

POPSFSM In the News Since converting from Christian Deism to Flying Spaghetti Monsterism last year I have found my fellow Pastafarians and I are being discriminated against in some unlikely places. YouTube has banned the user account of an FSM evangelist, and MySpace has even shuttered certain accounts of FSM devotees. Have I managed to convert just in time for a backlash against our faith? Will Pastafarians unite in a Pirate Jihad? These questions and more get answered in the following videos found on BoingBoing.

POPSLincoln, the Hypocrite and Thanksgiving--Religious Propaganda to Cover War Crimes History as taught is a fabrication to indoctrinate into an artificial unity. Lincoln was no more a Christian than was Thomas Paine, the Deist who wrote against the Bible. The real motive behind Lincoln's hypocritical declaration of Thanksgiving (advised by Seward, who was Lincoln's Karl Rove) was, per the above, because "it pleases the fools"--i.e. it was religious propaganda in order to cover up the unlawful, anti-constitutional invasion of the Southern States, the burning of their cities, the rape and pillage of Sherman's army by calling for Thanksgiving. (The parallels between invasion of Iraq and invasion of the South are striking). Lincoln was distrusted by not only the South but many in the North. Christians saw him as a Deist not a Christian as his own words demonstrate. Lincoln, like most of the Presidents, was not a Christian and used religion like a hypocrite for political purposes, not unlike GWB.

POPSOn Death (A Letter to Andrew Dean)
"While man keeps to the belief of one God, his reason unites with his creed. He is not shocked with contradictions and horrid stories. His bible is the heavens and the earth. He beholds his Creator in all His works, and everything he beholds inspires him with reverence and gratitude. From the goodness of God to all, he learns his duty to his fellow-man, and stands self-reproved when he transgresses it. Such a man is no persecutor. But when he multiplies his creed with imaginary things, of which he can have neither evidence nor conception, such as the tale of the Garden of Eden, the Talking Serpent, the Fall of Man, the Dreams of Joseph the Carpenter, the pretended Resurrection and Ascension, of which there is even no historical relation - for no historian of those times mentions such a thing - he gets into the pathless region of confusion, and turns either fanatic or hypocrite. He forces his mind, and pretends to believe what he does not believe. This is in general the case with the

POPSU.S. was not founded as 'Christian' nation America was founded on Enlightenment principles, not Christian principles. Americas laws are based not on christian principles, but on Roman Law, and Common Law which was handed down to us from Teutonic pagans! (Common Law existed BEFORE there was any Christianity, as did Roman Law.)

POPSZeitgeist, the movie. This is a long video in three parts: 1. The Greatest Story Ever Told. This is without a doubt the best presentation on the origins of Judaism & Christianity I've ever seen, (and Islam is nothing more than a blend of Arab Moon-God worship and a spinoff (perversion) of Judaism.) 2. All the World's a Stage. How media keeps you entertained and uninformed. And why. 3. Don't Mind the Men Behind the Curtain. Who REALLY runs things!
