Almost every revolution in the history of the world was a result of two things, oppression and tyranny. Fortunately we live in the United States of America, so when a politician feels they have done something reasonable as a compromise to two different groups, then they have done their job. Unfortunately, appeasing rights stealing church goers as they attempt to usurp the rights of U.S. Citizens under the Constitution of the United States of America is not their job. Appeasing ignorant hateful people that attack sick people, some of them deathly ill, and unable to grow their own medicine, is not their job! Today in the chambers of the Shasta County Supervisors all of the hate came from the people that probably think they are Christian. Believe me, I know Christ, and these people are trying to take away a medicinal herb that Jesus used to heal people himself. These people claim that they know Christ because they belong to exactly the type of church I left when I was thirteen years old. It happened after Pastor Jones from Palo Cedro Baptist Church scolded his congregation because some of us had gone to an evening service at another Baptist church. Palo Cedro Baptist Church didn't even offer an evening service at the time, and it was an evening service for which we had supposedly betrayed our church. Thirteen is a pretty young age to start delving deeper into God, and Jesus, and what other religions thought, and why. It became very clear to me that Jesus had spent some time in Tibet, because their traditions go back to before Jesus, and it is clear in everything he said that there was a connection. As I delved deeper into the New Testament, I realized that there were two opposing viewpoints on many issues. But it was the realization of what Jesus was trying to accomplish by overturning the money changer's tables in the Synagogue that made me wonder. It seemed to me that Jesus was fighting against the same systems and churches we have in place now. He even said, "When thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward." "But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly." When asked about taxes, Jesus said "render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and render unto God what is God's." Boom chaka chaka, there it was. Paul wanted people to go out and work and bring money back to the church, "tithing." Jesus wanted to build a new world, one in which everybody helps each other, and everybody shares. His entire ministry was based on the fact that we would live in a paradise, and have everything we want if we could just get rid of the monetary system, and help all we can, and take help from all we can. In such a world, there would not be taxes, there would not be budgets, there would be half the work the human race does now if we eliminated counting money, dealing with taxes, and everything else associated with it. No more stress. No more 6.5 Billion profit industry for euthanasia disguised as cancer therapy. No more 160 year old oil industry to pollute our world with noxious fumes while very few people make millions and billions on their 160 year old technology. We could have been done with oil and gasoline years ago if someone wasn't looking at all of that oil in the ground, and wanting to profit on every drop of it until the earth dies. My point is that money is destroying us. Money will result in revolution if we cannot solve it politically because only more automation is coming, and only less jobs will be ahead of us. I honestly believe that automated factories and farms could be built that could easily supply all of humanity with all of their needs for the price of one year's budget of the United States of America. Free the people, free the resources, free, free, free! I won't even mind working for free to do my share of what little work is left after we make these changes for real freedom is what Jesus' ministry was all about. So, what does Jesus have to do with rights and freedoms in the U.S.A.? One of the things I notice across our political spectrum is citizens who are "Christians" asking our politicians who are "Christians," to violate our rights and freedoms under the Constitution. And our politicians keep appeasing them. In Esdras II of the Apocrypha, the prophecies talk about the most oppressive government in the history of the world being represented by an eagle. It's ok, because that prophecy also has a lion rising out of the forest, and that is explained by the angel to Ezra that the lion represents the messiah. Prophecy also talks of two things in the end of days. 1. And the whole world is deceived. 2. The antichrist will be trying to lead humanity down the wrong path. Do I think Obama is the antichrist? Not at all, nor is he the savior. No, there are scriptures that say no one would speak against the antichrist, no, not a one until the end days. Well, people have been speaking against Obama the whole time, so not the antichrist. But who is the antichrist? There's actually a person that fits two scriptures that people don't usually consider together, or interpret the way I do. Like I said earlier, I dig deep. First of all a little hint. Paul said, "beware of Satan, for he will come to you as an angel of light." Isn't it funny that the "whole world" can't be deceived unless the deceiver is no longer in the world. Paul gave a warning about Satan. How did he know, did he see that happen? Yes, when Satan came to him, and pretended to be Jesus, that angel of light is a good description of how Paul claims Jesus came to him. Just a little review, prior to that incident, Paul went around killing and persecuting Christians under the name of Saul. The Apostle Paul changed the direction of Jesus' ministry, and built not only a church, but a world that bleeds. Paul pulled the church back to the old testament. It gave himself more legitimacy toward the path he wanted to take the church, which is well off the path of Jesus. He also managed to change the Gospels, and we would have never known if the dead sea scrolls had not been discovered. Is there any doubt that they were destined to be discovered? What has infested our politics, and our lives is the false church. Changing our motto to "In God We Trust," in 1956 despite the fact that "E Pluribus Unum" not only describes our country better, but describes Jesus' ministry better. For those that don't know, it means "Out of many, one." The false church side of our government is known as the Republicans. Like Jesus said, "you will know them by their works." Watching these politicians try and restrict, obstruct or even completely end natural remedies that work better than pharmaceuticals shows me clearly the false church of Paul. You see Jesus said not to judge others. Jesus said to love they neighbor as thyself. Jesus said what you do for the least of these you do for me. Jesus taught love, honor, compassion, and respect. These people come in spitting venom armed with carefully collected propaganda that really isn't that easy to find in the sea of truth. If you type "problems with marijuana" into a Google search, you will get plenty of BULLSHIT to present at a meeting of our local politicians. Just ask Lisa Lozier, the County employee tasked with doing the research for the county side of the debate. With the more than obvious lying of Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry our path is clear. If you want to live in a free country, don't vote for a Republican, if you want to live in a prosperous country, don't vote for a Republican, and if you want to save yourself, and much of humanity from the fires of hell, then don't vote Republican. They are the false church, the prophesied deceivers, and the oppressive judgmental government the prophecies spoke about. I have no doubt if Jesus came back today, they would go to war with him, and that too is prophesied. Republicans prove their evil every Redding City Council Meeting, every Supervisor's meeting, and every other meeting that they stand up and speak to their fellow church goers sitting in the seats of power. And they have been proving their evil love of money for almost a year in our House of Representatives, and in governor Scott Walker's Wisconsin. The end is near for you Republicans at every level. The people want their rights back!
