Leonard Rouse, reading your post reminded me of something I have noticed over and over when dealing with baptist type Christ-culties. That is the almost certainty of them trying to screw you over in any business transaction and then when you call them out on it their pious remorse and repenting to Jeesus, followed by their astonishment that you no longer trust them. It is as if they think their membership in their cult gives them a license to lie, steal, and cheat and all will be made right with a bit of prayer to Jesus, their sins washed away and their innocence restored.
I have learned this lesson the hard way. Actually my Dad tried to teach it to me when I was young, but me being me I had to relearn it the hard way. But I've learned it well, at the first bit of talk about Jesus and "scripture" I check my wallet and look around to inventory the location of various pieces of my property. And then I wait for the scam fast talk to begin. My father was a tough old cattle rancher who built his place with lots of hard work; his own, my mother's, and mine and my brothers'. He didn't have a lot of time for the finer things in life but he was no rube either. He was well read and had a way of breaking problems down to basics and solving them rationally and efficiently. He wouldn't allow a bible in his house. I was a young adult in the army the first time I ever had one in my hands. I remember one time a traveling bible peddler showed up out at the ranch. I was maybe 8 or 9 years old. The peddler started giving my mother a sales pitch for some religious books for children. She was almost going for it until the Old Man showed up. The peddler started extolling the virtues of his bible based kiddie books and waved his hand around the room at all the comic books laying everywhere and asked the Ol' Man which he would rather have his kids reading. Dad replied that he would stick with the comic books because we were sure to read them and he seriously doubted if we would do the same with the xtian books, and that his main goal was to get us to read. He escorted the peddler to the door and we were never pestered by him again. Growing up out on the ranch we never had electricity, so no TV. Everyone read. Dinners were long drawn out affairs where everyone talked about the day and sometimes my mother or father would tell stories about their youth or people they had known. After dinner everyone kicked back with a book until bedtime. My brothers and I had encyclopedias and such, books by Mark Twain, Grimm's Fairy Tales, cowboy books by guys like Will James, the frontier series by Joseph Altsheler, books represented the world beyond the ranch and we were encouraged to read them. We did. It was a good way to grow up. No Jeebus at all. |

Yep. That's what it an utter waste of time to argue with them. All you do is go round about who's the real christian. It's crazy-making. It's never the thing itself that's the problem, just X, Y and Z who are following the wrong interpretation. It's very easy to see why whites killed themselves by the million over that shit, they really get het up about it. It truly is difficult to see how such an exceptionally stupid thing as christ-insanity could have such a hold over the minds of morons.

Yeah. . .white trash is real. And it has nothing intrinsically to do with money, contrary to what both the low-levels (that I spotlighted above) and the higher levels (who imagine they're not white trash because they have a few extra zogbucks in their pocket--usually courtesy of brown-nosing) think. I have some experiences with diploma mill administration/faculty, too. I'm looking forward to reading yours. |

1) When I first read Frank Hebert's Dune, I thought he must have gotten the idea for the Bene Gesserit's "Missionaria Protectiva" from Christian (ie, European) society. From Wikipedia: Quote:
Revilo Oliver (and others) might say the analogy is to jews. IIRC, he floated the idea that Christianity was, from its beginning, jewish psycho-warfare against gentiles, ala what we see in jewish controlled media from the late-19th century thru today. I'm not sold on that line, though I think it has more merit than I used to think. I suspect Herbert had Rome's evangelization of "heathen" Europe in mind. But, regardless of the front-end shenanigans, here on the back-end jews fit the analogy perfectly regarding exploitation-via-meme. 2) What kills me is that when you strip-out all the White idiots. . .strip-out even the huge White "middle" who just go-along/get-along. . .and line up the Whites who are inherently sharp enough/smart enough/savvy enough with their jewish similars. . .the White numbers dominate jewish numbers, just because there are so many more Whites than kikes. The relatively small percentage of White sharps within our own population to the relatively high percentage (as if they'd been bred that way) within the jew population doesn't play in a direct comparison. We have the numbers. So there's something else besides intelligence. It's like we have all the chemical components to coalesce into some kind of molecule, but there's a bond won't form. Or something. |

It's actually not to spotlight my neurotic psyche. It's hopefully to prod others into paying attention to their own surroundings. The majority of Jews seem to do this naturally. A minority of Whites do it naturally. A majority of Whites think ignorance is a virtue. And frankly, I've never found anything more entertaining than watching other people. http://www.vnnforum.com/showthread.php?t=122082 |

Even the very smart can be thought-controlled. Raw IQ is not the antidote- the antidote is simple, accurate information. Information that is severely suppressed.
Job number one is busting up the information monopoly. |

Wow, a demand curve shift. Less WWF/E Christianity consumption at the lower end IQ point.

Religion is more of a functional thing than intellectual. Even smart people need to fit in, and need ways of interacting with others. The problem is that only christ-insanity offers these things. It doesn't seem like society can really run off multiple operating systems at once, it has to go one way or another. What NS showed is that something NOT directly religious can fill the same functions religions do even better, and with more popularity and responsibility.

how many 130 iqs in a southern baptist meeting? how many in an episcopalian church? these folks belong to the same religion in name, but different religion in practice. the episcopalian crowd looks down its nose at the southern baptists, and will discriminate against and mock them at every turn.

If I were doing the study, I would rather rely on stats than opinions/surveys. Very few people in a heavily slanted religious community would admit to non-belief in private or public. I was fired from two jobs for not celebrating Christmas, so I know first hand. Beliefs are hard to kill any way. The best way to quiet a belief is lynching. The second best way is prison. Third is public humiliation ala Canada or jewed. We should be thankful for that quirk in society. Otherwise, righteous racism would've died in 1865. |

Jesus apparently predicted a 2nd century AD second coming (see Matthew 24, Mark 13). His supposed death and resurrection was originally supposed to be a foreshadowing of an imminent general resurrection of Christian believers. Yet Christianity has survived nearly two thousand years since Jesus' prophecies expired.
