I was watching a CBCNN program called Crashing the Tea Party when I found out that Glen Beck is a Mormon or member of the Latter Day Saints Church of Jesus Christ.
Beck is a very loud voice to the Taxed Enough Already Party and moves around with Sarah Palin alot these days.
Freedom of religion is a big deal in America and Beck's choice of religion is very much up to him but to be fair to Obama whom we looked at in other posts around here when his Islam/Christian choice of religion was being questioned it can only be fair compare notes in order to see how religion is becoming such an issue in these years leading up to 2012.
Crashing the Tea Party opened up my eyes to just how Christian oriented the Tea Partiers are. That in itself is not such a bad thing but what is totally scary is how this coming election is bringing politics and religion into a clashing mode.
Glen Beck is a Mormon. So what ? We also looked at Mormonism around here in previous posts and tried to point some of the strange realities that go along with that religion borne of Joseph Smith, Prophet Lehi, Nephi, Moroni and others. Having studied that religion a bit we have come up with the one detail that basically separates the LDS church from other Christian churches.
To believe in the Mormon scriptures one has to step back into time to 600 BC and a time when the Neo Babylons ( Bel and Marduks religious orders ) were about to attack the Israelites. Lehi gets a prophetic warning that tells him to get out of arms way. But Nephi must get the geneological records from a Aramaic guy called Laban. Those documents contain the truth about the reality of the tribes of Israel and who is or isn't part of that creed of people destined to inherit the kingdom.
Nephi kills Laban.......so what ? Well in the Christian Bible we are not told how Laban dies. So in order to be a true Mormon faithful one as to agree that such an event occured in the neo Babylonian era.
If you believe that much then you also believe as a Mormon that the earliest Americans are very much descendents of the Mormon family since Nephi and his brothers ended up in America soon after they killed Laban.
That's all fantastic knowledge and requires faith since little evidence exists that proves the Mormon credo to be accurate and true ( Beck's crocodile tears might sway your belief but only in your heart can you truly know the truth of the Tea r partiers convictions for a better world ).
But faith has a strange way of blinding people and as an old friend of mine who went and converted to LDS beliefs said once, "How can 15 million people be wrong ?". Truth is they can.
Glen Beck is a Mormon but the Tea Party movement isn't about Mormonism. If you look at O'Donell and the witchcraft issue that has been plaguing her campaign then more religion mixes into the US Primaries and indirectly into the 2012 American elections. Yet, the Crashing the Tea Party program was painting O'Donnell as a Fundamentalist Evangelical Christian.
Glen Beck is a Mormon and politico-ecclesiatics is probably the word that best describes this spirit of religion that is tearing nations apart. As such, religion seems like such an evil thing.
Religion seems like very much a sickness. Most Christian churches conduct their rituals along a code that was developed around 323 AD when Constantine adopts Christianity. Constantine was the Roman Emporer and moved the capital of Rome to Constantinople which is today known as Istanbul. The papal states quickly became powerful places around Rome. The Council of Niceae was conducted and decisions were made about what good Roman Christians were and weren't. During that council a person by the name of Arius was dismissed as an heretic and the Aryan Christian movement became demonized. The Roman Empire began to divide and Germanic tribes became strongholds of Aryanism.
By 600 AD the world is being introduced to a new religion called Islam when PBUH Mohammad has is visionquest in Mecca.
At about the same time the Lombards are becoming the most powerful bankers and brokers in the Byzantine Empire.
And the poor Goths or those people whom Charlemagne calls the People of the Good Waters or the Got Aha are being tossed around and forced to take sides with........well pick one of the following....Aryans, Huns, Roman Catholics, Islams, Hebrews, Pagans........the poor Goths become stigmatized as the most evil people on earth.
But the story of religious influence balanced on money and politics goes so much deeper than " Glen Beck is a Mormon ", " Obama is either a Christian or an Islamist ", O'Donell is either a Fundamentalist Christian or a Pagan Wicca amateur sorceress ".
It's a story that finds at least one base on a little hill which was at one time called Tel el Fukhar, and later renamed Ake, then Ptolemais, then St John's Acre, then simply Acre. This little hill and the port city that rose around it has been the base of many wars over who controls trade along the Silk Roads and who controls the finances of the world . And almost always it has been a hill fought over through politico-ecclisiastics.
Glen Beck is a Mormon was news to me.
How his involvement with a political movement that seeks to involve people who want to bring down other religious and political tyrants is not news to me.
The 2012 American elections is all so very prophetic 2012 and war of spirits.
Irony is that most religions sell civility. They come into the world of pagans who seem savage in their ways. The native Americans and pre Columbian Mexicans for example were spiritual people who believed in dreams being doorways into reality. The dreamquest or vision quest was a ritual that was meant to bring the individual closer to the eternal fire of being and oneness. Politiically organized religions came into their world, ie. the Spaniard Rome based Franciscan mercenary monks, or the Blackrobe Jesuits, and converted the evil savages ( pardon the expression). They did the same for the People of the Good Waters.
Today they continue to convert................politico-ecclesiastics is not a ritual of sanity or sanctity. It's a ritual of greed and oppression of soulful and useful oneness.

"The Mayan calendar is at the center of a cultural phenomenon. To some, 2012 will bring the end of time; to others, it carries the promise of a new beginning; to still others, 2012 provides an explanation for troubling new realities - environmental change, for example - that seem to go beyond the control of our technology and impervious to reason. Just in time for the final five-year countdown, the Mayan apocalypse has come of age."

ReplyDeleteMormans are part of gods family just as everyone in this world is.. All religions believe they are the true church and in reality we are human and NO one knows for sure. Your personal relationship with the Lord God in heaven is the one that matters. So all these people need to shut it they only know as much as the rest of us..
ReplyDeleteReigion historically has proven itself as a means to bring out the worst end in people...but if you take aperson's
ReplyDeletebeliefs and actions out of the or any religion then you can often see the best of rhem......
Often it seems that religious leaders find any reason to go after the booty that is or always seems to be a promise...
